Original subtitles

night another party with my favorite brand consultants.

So, which brand do we want to tackle next? Oh, I heard the goldmine people

here.

What?

I heard they're looking for a new marketing team.

I know, but... What, Kristen?

Matt, you know I'm not one to sugarcoat hard stuff.

Okay, so don't start now.

Goldmine is simply the best.

Jasmine? What's going on?

Self -proclaimed branding selfie scene?

Seems to be the trend these days.

What about authenticity?

It doesn't even make sense. You've been influenced. Are they going to trust

their brand to one person?

Trust me, I know.

Okay.

What about the hand for 10 million?

They're coming with Jasmine too?

Look, I want to make sure my gossip was correct, but clearly it is.

Jasmine started a whole network of influencers, young up -and -comers who

her brand style without the established influencer pricing to peddle the

product. I can't believe it that all these accounts are in the bag.

Me too, girl.

Talk about a low blow.

Listen, this just means that we, a .k .a. you, need to work a little harder on

the pizzazzy side of social media.

Pizzazzy.

Yeah. It does.

I can't

believe

the same people will line up for breakfast on a weekday. Well, most of

people probably aren't pediatricians who work 15 hours a day, so. This is good,

though. Thank you so much for meeting me.

Especially after last night's news.

That's what best friends are for.

Plus, I... could not do another hospital lunch.

The timing is perfect, though, because I actually have something to talk to you

about. I just can't believe that she won. I mean, most influential marketer

the year.

Mac, you are awesome, and you are real.

Your clients will remember that, and you'll come back.

Tristan said I just need to add some more pizzazz to my branding.

Maybe I'll start by, you know, capturing original moments, like this beautiful

plate. You don't need...

Big egg. To compete with that girl. You're brilliant.

Now, can you put down your phone? Because I need to ask you something.

Hi. I'm sorry. Hi.

Hi.

Mac?

You've always been there for me when I needed you.

Well, I need you again for my wedding.

Back home.

In two weeks.

Two weeks?

We're moving the wedding out. By a lot.

You know how I always wanted to get married at St.

Augustine's, but they're booked straight through?

Well, they called yesterday, and they've had a cancellation. And if I don't book

now, we'll have to wait another year.

Minimum. You know I love Stuart, and I'm going to marry him regardless. So who

cares if the wedding is nine months earlier than planned?

I'm so happy for you, Liv.

Happy enough that you'll come home to Sweet Grove and help me get it

Sure. On Sunday.

Oh.

what you've done, Stuart. No, you can't be mad for a guy wanting to marry the

love of his life, can you? No, but I would mind some photo ops from a

destination wedding in the South France.

South France, man.

Oh, by the way, thanks for helping us out while I'm on call at the hospital.

know I appreciate it. Yeah, of course. There's nothing I wouldn't do for you

all.

Can't wait for that honeymoon.

All right, enough media. Come on, I don't want to get a ticket. Let's go.

Save us the trip to our sleepy town. You're so hard on Sweet Grove.

Is it the beautiful vistas you find so unbearable, or is it because you hate

that you can't check your phone when you're driving up there?

Sweet Grove.

Yep, definitely been a minute since I've been back, that's for sure.

Oh, Mac.

I'm such an idiot.

I didn't even think about it.

You haven't been there since your mom's funeral.

I have not.

But hey, this trip isn't about me, it's about you. So.

What are we talking here? Short and flirty dress or long and sleek?

Hmm?

Super short. Oh, I knew it!

I have to admit, Sweet Grove is cute.

Long enough that the mom -pop stores are still in business, but big enough that

it still has all the amenities we need to plan the wedding.

Okay, so what am I tackling first?

Venue, catering, flowers?

Let's start the way life should be.

Dessert first.

Ooh, gay wedding cake testing.

All right, that'll be fun. The wedding cake testing will be later, and you can

handle that, but I was thinking two of the diner's famous chocolate shakes for

old time's sake.

Yeah.

Hey, girls. Are you back in town? Yeah. You still making those famous chocolate

shakes of yours? Don't you know? We'll take you. Coming up.

Planning will be easy -peasy, especially with the help of your assistant.

Tristan? No, not exactly. I recruited my cousin to help you.

Carvin.

Dylan, you know, works for your dad. Yeah, right. I remember. I know who

is. Thank you very much.

Hopefully that thing between you two doesn't...

Get in the way. I didn't have a thing. Not even a little one? You're being

serious, aren't you? Dylan is going to be my new wedding planning assistant?

He's my cousin, and he's George's best friend. We can't get everything done

without his help.

Don't worry, he's much older.

And not nearly as handsome as he was when you met Tom.

Which was when? Years.

You two got pretty close. My mom was sick.

Yeah, we did.

Still really close to your dad.

Yes, I've heard.

Jared and I talk about it a lot.

About?

How it always seemed like he wished he was with you.

Even when we were kids.

Okay, the girlfriend he got engaged to makes your statement to me make no

He's currently single.

Don't tell me that.

Well, you told me not to talk about him. Yeah, totally.

Don't look at me like that. Like what? Like that.

All right. Fabulous.

Okay, great. Fabulous.

Surprise over here, Rainy? A girl who knows the key to my heart.

Well, aren't you a cyphthora?

Hey, Dad.

Hey, Bug.

Oh, it's so good to have you back home. Oh, it's good to be home.

Traffic okay?

Yeah, I'll see you back.

All right.

See what you got.

Uh -huh, traveling light as usual.

Well, actually, believe it or not, this is me traveling light.

Good to know things don't change.

Oh, Dad, why don't I help you with that? Okay, I got it.

How are you feeling, by the way?

Are you asking about my pacemaker?

I am. Uh -huh.

I got a little app on my phone that tells me it's just fine.

Just asking is all.

Well, what you should be asking is if your old man can still tap more trees in

one day than most people can in a month. Dad, you're the hardest working maple

syrup producer in the United States. I don't have to ask anybody that. Don't

forget it. So how is the farm going, by the way?

Bug, you worry more than your mother. It's fine.

All I want to do is go inside, get a cup of tea, catch up with my favorite

daughter. Your only daughter.

Just like I said.

Whoa.

Whoa. Back.

Dylan. Hi.

Hey. Sorry, I didn't recognize you.

You got taller.

Thanks, I guess.

Better recognize you without that big old dick when you used to jog with.

yeah, I definitely stepped up my tech games. I guess that comes in handy for

organizing flash mobs.

Flash mobs, wow, yeah, those aren't a thing anymore.

Oh, right, block parties.

You should probably stick to maple syrup.

Where are you getting all this wealthy information about my events anyway?

Stuart, Olivia, and your dad. He talks about you all the time.

So I'm pretty sure he just thinks to organize county fairs in Times Square.

You know, a Times Square county fair with the right vintage -y twist and

vendors. More hog ties.

There goes my inspiration.

Oh, you were being serious.

You know, I don't expect somebody that thinks Instagram is the type of serial

understand what I do.

There's that biting Mac Sullivan wit. Should make wedding planning a little

interesting. Oh, on that, by the way, to be clear, I will be doing all of the

wedding planning, and you are simply following my direction. You got it,

Okay. Well, the first thing we need to do is pick out a wedding cake.

Okay. Let me know when. I'll be there. Great. All right. Cell number?

Line line.

Of course.

So it figures.

Okay. Well, then I will just send you a message via pigeon carrier, and we'll go

from there.

Just leave a note on my truck. It's parked.

Just tell me when you see me.

It's still there.

Carved that when we were 16 years old.

Kissed right here.

Anyhow, enough about that. Let me show you inside.

You're going to love it. It's so cute.

Ta -da!

Hello!

Oh, in here!

Long time no see.

Yeah, when did you catch up?

Two minutes ago, in fact.

She's been unloading these decorations from the truck. I'll get the rest.

That's okay with you, boss.

So, what do you think, Miss Event Expert?

Isn't that perfect?

Yeah, you know, we can use a little dusting. You know, maybe fresh flowers

be best.

Hey, do you know if there's Wi -Fi in here?

I checked you didn't need the Internet to get married.

And then we could do dancing in the garden after dinner. If the weather

it. We'll get a photo booth outside. Of course, we've got to figure out some

sort of lighting setup. Oh, and we need a stage for the band.

Remember, Think big, but keep it simple. Model for the wedding.

Oh, Liv, please. It'll be beyond simple. I just want everyone I love together in

one room with no distractions.

Give me that look you give me when you're about to call me. Same, Olivia.

I don't care if it's not cool.

Oh, hey, I think this is really, really sweet. I mean, not exactly the Soho

house, but I promise I'll work my magic.

Sure you will.

In the meantime, I'm just going to head back to the farm.

Oh, and your Pigeon Express mail never landed.

Oh. So we talk in 2 p .m. bakery?

1 .45 p .m., actually.

Looking forward to it.

Later, cuz.

Later.

Don't worry. I'll keep her in check.

I heard that.

I see a Q6 in here.

Speaking of magic, when did you two bump into each other? Wow. Who are you, TMZ?

Boy. Really grown up, hasn't he?

Yeah, sure.

Just by driving a truck and telling the same lame jokes that he did in high

school as a grown up. Yeah, he'd grown up quite a bit. A little different than

the dot -com rich, self -indulging tycoons you've dated.

Wow. I don't know when my dating life made its way into your wedding planning.

When my super hot cousin seemed to make you blush.

Okay, you know what? I actually need to go get some real dot -com work done so

that I can drum up my work so that I can do your work for your wedding.

But this is really, really perfect.

I love it.

Yeah, I see that.

The last of the taps, Boyle.

Should have everything bottled by the end of the week.

I had a schedule. Great. Now we can start marking trees for next year.

About that, Elliot.

Can we discuss the updates I suggested to you? Appreciate how hard you work,

Dylan, but we've been over this.

I know, we have, but...

But going modern doesn't take away from the fact that you've built this place

into what it is today.

Yes, it's true. We produce some of the best meat we serve out there, but come

on, Elliot.

You and I both know that's not enough to make ends meet. Things could be easier

for you if we just invest in some newer equipment, which I told you I can help

with. Now is not the time.

Until I pass this business along, we're going to stay true to our roots.

And I know that may seem old -fashioned to you, but that's the way it's going to

go.

All right.

I've got to get to work. I'm done talking about this.

I don't think it's really impossible to get some section of it down.

Maybe not so.

So, as I was saying, this one is chocolate.

Just chocolate?

That's what you said.

And this one is... Vanilla.

Let me know what you choose.

You know, I was thinking maybe we could do something, you know, that makes a

little more of a statement.

Do you have Wi -Fi?

Keep it to five minutes.

Perfect. Amazing. Okay, so I saw these cakes on Pinterest that I think would be

really great. Okay, here we go. Maybe like a spiced chai cake or a lavender

infused cake. Ooh, or one of these ham, peanut water caramels.

I could write their names on the cake.

Hey, Bertie, do you think you could give us a minute, please?

Thanks.

Try? This isn't a Starbucks bag.

You know, Bertie only makes two kinds of cake, and that's it. It's been that way

since we were kids.

Well... Remember that time I've asked her if she'd make cheesecake for her

birthday?

Bertie's hard no is definitely coming back to me.

But come on, Dylan. I mean, this isn't some 11 -year -old's birthday party.

We're talking about Liv's wedding. I need it to be perfect.

Perfect for her.

Perfect for you.

What the fuck do you mean?

Liv chose to have her wedding here because she loves her hometown.

Boring cake flavors and all.

Now, try the chocolate.

It's better than whatever fancy lava cake you get in the city. Okay, I highly

doubt that.

Okay,

yeah, it is.

It's pretty good.

Mm -hmm.

Mm -hmm.

Mm. Can she do a chocolate vanilla swirl?

No, I don't.

See you later. Hey, see you later. Sorry, I got a phone call.

Hey, so, is the Big Apple so shiny without me? Girl, how long have you been

gone? Do you still recognize me? If so, I've got good news. I may have let it

slip to a few clients that the wedding you ran off to plan is big.

Like Empire State Building big. Like Jasmine Vigo big.

Yeah, what are you trying to say, Tristan?

I think you know.

I can't lie.

We're not talking about lying.

I'm talking about spinning.

Country Chic is having a moment, so you might as well capitalize on that to get

your clients back. That would be great, except I have my hands full trying to

save Olivia's wedding from becoming the most basic event of the century.

Plus Liv's super tall cousin would never let me expand the horizon.

I'm sorry, did I just hit my very symmetrical head?

I thought I just heard my experiential marketing queen.

say that she was letting someone else take the reins of a party?

Get yourself together and get creative.

Okay, I know what you're thinking, and the answer is no.

I can't. What do you have that no one else in that little town has?

Connections. Use them to make Olivia's big day even dreamier than she could

imagine. And while you're at it, let your clients see that spark they don't

know they're missing.

I guess it wouldn't hurt to see if DJ Anastasia is back from his gig in

Now we're talking.

Win -win, my girl. Your best friend will have the wedding of the year, and you

will be back in your client's contact list. Think about it, act on it, and

me later so we can get things moving.

Okay. Bye.

Stealing my Wi -Fi. Sorry.

I find writing in cursive so soothing.

Yes. I have some news for you. Oh, I like the sound of that.

I may have just booked you the hottest DJ in America.

Oh. Maybe the world.

I know someone who knows someone who knows him.

Okay. A quick question. Will the hottest DJ in the world be able to play some

crowd pleasers? Crowd pleasers? You know, like the electric slide, the Cupid

shuttle, the Macarena.

Okay, maybe not that one, but definitely some old school Sheryl Crow. You know I

can't have my wedding without her.

Hey, Liv, he's more of an artist, you know, kind of stream of consciousness

of guy. Yeah, but will stream of consciousness make Grammy want to dance?

totally hear you. Great.

The no best of Ibiza DJ sets, right? Liv, who has known you the longest? I

not book something if it wasn't right.

I hope so.

Shut up.

You're supposed to be looking for flowers, Max, not flowers.

You're funny.

What, they don't fly on flowers like the rest of the world?

These look nice to me.

Dylan, it's a wedding, okay? We at least need a rose or something.

Mackenzie Sullivan, I haven't seen you in years.

Mrs. Aronson, hi.

It's so nice to see you. And what a welcome surprise.

The two of you tying the knot.

I always thought you two made such a cute couple.

We're not.

We're actually helping out my cousin Olivia for her big day, Mrs. Sampson.

Oh, of course you are.

Okay, well, enough of the chit -chat. Why don't you two take a look around? If

you find anything you like, you let me know.

Okay, great.

Those turning enough for you?

Yeah, making these my mom's favorite flower.

I don't know if you remember, she used to grow them in her garden.

She would be fussing over them, making sure they got enough water.

She sure had a green thumb.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, she did.

For you, let me guess, you've never even had a houseplant. Not even a cactus. I

don't have time.

For a cactus.

You should never be too busy to have a life, Mac.

Have you ever considered that slowing down a little might actually feel good?

Not about me.

Let's focus on Liv and Stu's wedding. Mrs. Aronson, do you have any

in the back maybe that you could show me? Yes, of course. Right this way,

sweetheart.

to give yourself another heart attack?

My heart's fine.

Hey, come on. Isn't this why we hired Dylan so you don't have to do this kind

stuff anymore?

You sound just like him.

This is an old battle axe just like me and we chop wood just the way I like it.

Not sugarcoating it with you, is there? Finesse was your mother's department.

She knew just when the syrup was ready and she could see details no one else

could. Yeah.

I miss her.

Yeah.

I do too.

I see a lot of her in you.

I don't know.

Don't argue with your father.

Or at least help me move this wood while you do.

All right.

You trying to avoid me?

You trying to follow me?

That doesn't even make sense. I work here.

I'm on social media.

Right.

I was about to go hang some of these.

I think you can manage holding something other than your phone for a little

while. Okay. You know what? I may wear designer jeans and I'm still a Sullivan.

All right.

I'll get the first tree started for you, remind you how it's done. Oh, I know

how it's done. Please, just pass me the drill. All right, why don't you be my

bucket holder?

Okay.

Wow. Huh.

You're looking for a career change. I just might hire you.

You would hire Mackenzie Sullivan at Sullivan Farms? Why did you make it

the job interview without too much name dropping?

Yeah, instead of operations, I could hire you.

Very well.

Good to know. Very kind of you, sir.

I mean, not entirely sure whatever a pop -up is qualifies as relevant work

experience, but if you needed a job.

Oh, I just might.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, I don't really want to talk about it.

How come you joined us so late in the season anyway?

I like to keep a few buckets going for the kids in town.

Dealing six out of the pails would write a passage down here, you know? Yeah,

we've certainly done our share of it as kids.

Yeah, we did.

Yeah.

Take a picture of the bird over there. You know, social media, I gotta... Yeah,

I guess that's why they call it a tweet.

Nice one.

I need to get this done, Paul.

Yeah, give me some privacy.

Hey, you.

Wow, your look is getting more Little House on the Prairie every time we talk.

I was just tapping trees. I probably got some in my hair.

Sounds cool.

Although I have no idea what that means, but good news.

I mentioned to none other than Muchia Bianchi that you were in the midst of

planning a super -secret VIP wedding.

And she was practically begging to send you her new line of wedding dresses.

Tristan, she's the hottest designer, but her dresses aren't exactly Liv's style.

One -of -a -kind haute couture isn't her style?

Come on, you've met Olivia.

Look, couture is everyone's style.

Look, I've already sent them your address, so they're coming tomorrow

I don't know about this.

But what we do... know is that getting a photo of your country bride wearing one

of them will help the resurrection you need when you get back to New York.

Babe, there are only two absolutes in this world.

The sun always rises, and free publicity is always worth it.

You coming?

Yeah, yeah, I'm right behind you. Um, listen, I can't really talk about this

right now, but maybe you are onto something.

I'm always onto something.

Here you are, Olivia.

I hope these are close to what you imagined.

I selected based off the photos you sent me.

I love this one.

Try it on.

Oh, my.

Can I need my face for this? Can you grab those puppies out of my purse?

Yeah.

Forgot to mention, after this rack, I have a few more options you might want

try. What do you mean?

Well, you know, I have a few more options flown in from New York.

I don't know, Mac.

Kind of feels like the one.

Oh, man.

She looks so, so beautiful.

Before you lock and load, hey, Betsy, would you mind bringing out that second

rack that I brought in?

Sure.

Oh, I love it.

Stuart's going to love it. Yes, he will.

Yeah, of course, you know, it's not good to commit to the first recipe try -on.

Maybe we should just give a few more a try. Just so you're sure.

Oh, Liz.

I'm not sure these qualify as understated, but there you go.

Now, this.

Swept the runway in New York, Paris, and London, I think Tristan said.

Tristan's picking out dresses for me now. Just give it a try, please, pretty

please. Oh, and don't forget this.

Okay. Okay.

Okay. Why not?

Okay, I just have to... Help, please.

That's the elbow, I think.

To the shoulder. No, not the shoulder. Ow!

Ow! Ow! Sorry.

No, bend this way.

I feel like it's me, you know?

Well, would it feel more like you if I told you it's free?

It's free?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. All I have to do is post a few pictures of you in it,

and that's it. Oh, I see. Mm -hmm. So this is about your business. Yeah.

Wait, no.

No, no, no. No, that's not it.

Hang on.

Mac,

can you look at me?

Yeah.

Mac, I really appreciate you helping me with my wedding.

I don't care if my wedding is written up in the Times.

Liv, you look so extraordinary in this.

I promise you'll at least think about it, right?

I mean, Liv, you look like a star, honestly.

A star about to explode.

Let me just get this off and I can start my thinking.

I hear what you're saying, Dylan, but it's my farm, and I'm going to be the

to decide how it works. This isn't an empty threat, Elliot. You need to make

some changes.

Listen, just hear me out. Oh, hey, Bug. Hey. Hey, Dad.

Hi.

I invited Stuart and Olivia over for dinner because Stuart's in town, and I

thinking about making Mom's famous pot pie, but is there anything I can help

all with?

A hot pie sounds just a ticket. You want to stay for dinner, Dill?

Never known Mac to make a pie smaller than a hubcap, so we're going to need

reinforcement. Right.

Okay. I'm going to go set the table.

Okay.

So, Dad, I've been meaning to ask you, how's it been going so far?

Well, I know you know the rule. We don't talk business at the table.

It's fine.

Everything's fine. Now let's just dig in and enjoy some of your mom's pie.

Mmm, compliment to the chef.

Yeah, Max, this is actually really good. What do you mean, actually?

Well, you weren't always... How should I put this?

An accomplished chef?

I mean, you have a lot of God, gifts, and talents, Bug, but cooking ain't one

them. Come on.

Okay, what about home economics?

My baked mac and cheese won best dish.

I might have ducked the ballot box a bit.

You look so proud of it. I thought you needed a full plate of it.

Well, you didn't see how thick you looked after.

Okay,

fine. What about the spring bake sale? My cookies sold out three years running.

Yeah, the bake sales cost your mom and I a lot of money, but the horses were

happy.

I'm just glad we settled on the fact Birdie is making the wedding cake

was afraid Mac would insist on baking a pumpkin spice chai. I don't even know

what cake.

Poor Dylan can't be expected to eat a whole wedding cake.

No, I bet he might if it was for Mac.

I can't believe you're crying.

Bottom line, you've come a long way.

Thank you.

I think.

Okay, well enough about me and my cooking. How about you two? Are you

excited about the big day?

Completely surreal.

But I would be overwhelmed if it wasn't for our all -star duo of wedding

planners. Yeah, you two make a good team.

They sure do.

Well, only because Max certainly knows how to keep me in line. You don't make

easy. Eating chocolate cake with me must have been torture.

I've already called my therapist.

Happy to know you guys aren't afraid of my food anymore because I've actually

made dessert.

What?

You didn't invite a flash mob to do that for you?

No, but I did produce a top -rated podcast about the best cleaning product.

I must have missed that one. The episode or the internet in general?

Well, I thought I'd at least get some credit for the flash mob reference.

Oh, okay.

So, how's the rest of the wedding planning coming along, boss?

Nothing I can't handle.

I'm sure there's very little you can't handle.

Yeah, I just gotta figure out a way to make the party fun, you know?

Pop?

You know, I want it to be big.

Why?

Because it's Liv and Stuart's wedding. I mean, they're one in a million, so the

party needs to be exceptional.

I'm just the best man who has yet to make it to my own wedding day.

But isn't it how Liv feels that should matter most?

You know, Liv told me that you and Emily broke up.

It must have been hard looking after the engagement.

I'm sorry.

I'm not sorry.

You're not?

It wasn't anyone's fault.

We only look good on paper, you know?

We were so used to being together, we never thought to think we were actually

happy.

She never made me laugh.

Didn't have any of that signature Sullivan wit.

Think about what makes someone feel truly loved.

Loved?

When you're planning this wedding for Liv and Stu.

Yeah. Just make sure it's what they want and not what you think they should

want. Yeah, I know how to make my best friend happy.

Morning, Dad.

How'd you sleep?

Like a log, even though I was still stuffed with that pot pie you made.

Oh, not thick, but a revelation.

It was great to have a family meal, see all you kids together again, just like

old times.

Good to make two cups of coffee again.

Every morning I would get up and make the coffee strong, just the way your mom

liked it.

And then I would ramble on about whatever dust up was happening in the

She'd listen, and then she'd come up with a solution.

Easy as taking a breath.

She loved to set you straight.

Yeah. But it driven me crazy that she was right all the time.

I wish I hadn't taken that for granted.

What do you mean?

Finding someone who will tell it like it is.

That's what it's all about, Bug.

Someone who will protect you and support you and still have the guts to be

honest with you.

Someone who will make you better.

I miss her.

I am so glad I had the opportunity to spend those 30 years by her side.

I'm glad you did too, Dad.

What's the point in that?

For me?

Uh -huh.

Well, I don't know what it is.

Well, you finished top of your class. You'll figure it out.

Okay. I guess I better get to work.

Maple syrup won't deliver itself.

See you later.

Later.

Thanks

for

helping us get this place into shape.

Better than riding shotgun with you while you try to remember how to drive

stick. Oh, come on. I'm not that bad.

Guess you don't get much practice driving trucks in the city, huh? Hey,

like the fifth time you've brought up the city.

Something on your mind?

Mac really loves it there, doesn't she?

New York?

I'm sure she did. I'm not so sure anymore. To be honest, she hasn't seemed

happy the last year. She kind of became a busybody that never took time for

herself, if that makes sense.

So are you going to ask me what you really want to know, or just pretend

don't know that you want to ask me something?

You know I work with kids, right?

I'm used to working with difficult patients.

Just, how come this is the first time Mac's been home in years?

I mean, not even a phone call.

Well, you never called her, did you?

Did I call anyone?

Exactly.

Kind of always felt like she was avoiding me a bit.

Well, you know how it was for Mac when she lost her mom.

You held her hand as much as Olivia did.

Now, I don't want to claim to be a love expert as much as my future wife.

You may say I am, but... Pining for a guy who was off -limits during might

been a little rough for her.

Even if he does have a solid beard.

It's true.

So how's the vibe between you two?

Liv's telling me the old flame might be lit again.

You know, better than anyone, there's always been something between us.

As far back as I can remember.

Right now, she seems... I don't know.

Distant.

closed off or something.

Emily and I didn't work out because there was no real spark, but back.

She's a light show all her own.

I just don't want to hold it back.

Hold it back from what? Big successful life in the lights of New York City.

I just feel that she and I only made sense out here.

Well, to me, you need to show her that life out here makes sense. See what I'm

saying?

Yeah. Yeah, I'd do all right.

And maybe a smooch on her cheek, too. That would... Actually, no, on her

forehead. Girls love kissing on the forehead. All right, all right, Prince

Charming. It's your gentle thing. Hey, it works.

Accolibium.

Love...

Join

the great outdoors?

Well, I was just enjoying a peaceful moment alone.

You two do make a cute couple, you know. You and your phone?

Oh, make sure you get an invite to our wedding.

So let me get this straight.

It's a perfect day out, and you're looking at your phone instead of

that's in front of you.

Well, when I hold my phone like this, what do I put strictly in front of me?

Oh, come on.

You've got to at least make yourself useful around here.

Follow me!

So what? Now we're enjoying the great outdoors?

Now we're going to get the rest of the syrup ready for delivery.

If we don't get it done, Dad's going to sneak in here and do it. Trying to get

him to work less, you know?

Yeah, I really appreciate that.

Are you serious right now?

Hmm? What?

Oh, it's on.

Oh.

Okay.

Stop right now. Oh, no.

I don't ever get bored.

Hanging with you?

Never. I just mean doing this day in, day out, same thing every day.

No more boring than watching your Twitter feed, I'm sure.

I like being able to take my time.

I like the pace of life here.

I don't get why people are in such a rush all the time.

Waited in line for a cronut once.

Totally not worth it.

You know, I thought we were having a real conversation.

About what?

I don't know.

About whether or not I stick around to read signs that misled me in the past?

Maybe.

Well, then here's my real answer.

No, I don't.

I move on. Because that's what history taught me is the safest thing to do.

What about happiness?

Shouldn't that work into the equation?

New York calling?

Funny. I set an alarm. I've got to go get changed and get ready. I'm taking

girls out tonight.

See you later.

If you're lucky.

Hello?

Hello, hello.

Who's ready for her sassy bachelorette party? Zach, I told you I didn't want

the cliche bachelorette stuff.

You are not having a cliche bachelorette party.

Just promise me there won't be any.

Kiss the bride t -shirts. I can make no such promises.

It's so much fun.

Aren't you going to be nice, Uncle?

As much as I appreciate a tour of the Sullivan Farm, I'm not dressed for a

Where are we going?

Not much further.

Okay, so we have all of the essentials from our old school camping days, plus

some fine adult comforts, our modern fire pit, and all of the things to make

gourmet s'mores. Please note that I have added dark chocolate and sea salt.

My favorite. I know.

Our old tent was great when we were eight, but Mac thought an upgrade was

Come on, let's get cozy.

Oh, here we go.

Remember our tent when we were kids? Tried to squeeze ourselves into it until

the end of high school.

Remember our feet sticking out while we were telling secrets?

Speaking of which... Oh my gosh, look at us.

I love it. Oh, the secrets that tent has heard.

Many of which I'd like to forget.

Okay, ladies.

For the first activity of the evening, we are going to play Never Have I Ever

with marshmallows.

make a bride eat a bunch of marshmallows right before her wedding? Oh, come on,

Liv. We'll take it easy on you.

Okay, I'll start.

Okay. Never have I ever kidnapped a hamster from Mr. Shepherd's class.

It was so sad and lonely.

It was a rescue mission.

All right, all right. My turn.

Okay. Never have I ever fallen for the best man while planning my

BFF's wedding.

Well, that is incredibly specific, Claire.

You know, if this is the way you're going to be playing, we are upgrading to

s'mores, and you might want to be careful before taking aim at me, because

have enough ammo for at least five marshmallows. We found some high school

mishaps with a certain Billy Jenkins.

This

sea

salt is incredible.

I know.

Oh, my goodness. All right, I think eight s'mores is probably my limit.

I'm so full. Okay, we'll go get some water to put out this fire, and then we

have some more surprises for the bride.

Oh, no.

Oh, yeah.

I actually have a surprise of my own, but I don't want to tell the girls yet.

That's intriguing. Come on, tell us.

DeRoot and I joined Doctors Without Borders.

Doctors without borders?

Yeah, we're going to go abroad for six months or a year. Who knows?

When?

After I finish my residency.

That's really why we wanted to get married here and now.

I'm really happy for you, Liz. It's huge.

I mean, I guess that means you're leaving New York.

Oh, I always planned on leaving New York.

And it just feels like the time is now, you know?

Before long, I'm going to want to come back here and start a family.

I know. You can't imagine life anywhere but New York, right?

I mean, I can't believe I'm actually saying this, but it's been kind of nice

being back.

Really? Mm -hmm.

I mean, you know, my pores are starting to unclog, and it's been nice being back

with my dad.

And Dylan?

Oh, Liv, you are relentless.

Dylan, I don't know, we're just... We're different, you know?

Maybe too different, and... I don't know, my career is in New York, and...

your career can be anywhere you want it to be.

I don't even know if I have a career anymore, to be honest, so... Which is

should focus on that.

Okay, Stuart would be so mad if I told you this, but... Dylan has clearly been

thinking about you. He told Stuart that.

He did?

Mac... As much fun as it is to torture you both.

Can you just think about whether you still have feelings for him?

Think of it as a wedding present. To me.

What would I do with that life -size ice sculpture of you that I bought, though?

It was very expensive.

I'm just curious. I know.

I just... I'll think about it. Okay?

Right, but enough sentimental stuff. We have one very important stop list.

Oh, boy.

Is it me, or does the beer always taste better here? Probably because it doesn't

cost you much rent like it does in New York.

It's good to have you home, too.

Oh, it's good to be home. And almost getting married.

I finally said yes. Well, it only took me, what, like a decade and a half to

convince her to marry me? You got moves, too. Moves.

I got you another round?

Nah, I think I'm good, Michelle.

You sure?

You're looking kind of thirsty.

Okay, sure, yeah.

Yeah, Grandpa, um... I must say, it is an honor. What is? To be in the presence

of the county's most eligible and oblivious bachelor.

Oh, come on. Oh, come on.

What, like, what are you doing?

Aside from trying to enjoy my beer. Okay, see, most guys in your shoes would

milking the situation.

That's the guy who's been with the same woman since puberty.

This situation?

It's not really what I had in mind. Like I said, you need to change it. Things

don't just fall into place.

I know that.

Oh, yeah?

So what are you trying to say that you're not saying?

Mac. It always comes back to Mac. I can't get a read on it.

See, that's the mystique of women. We're not supposed to.

One minute, it seems like we're on the same page.

And then the next, she's a million miles away.

Maybe someone back in New York.

They haven't talked about it yet.

I highly doubt it. And it's not because she isn't beautiful and smart.

Okay, let's break this down.

Have you asked her?

Not so many words.

Sounds like not many words.

Okay. I don't want to lecture you. Right.

But we're not in high school anymore, bud. Hey, we're getting older.

What's the ticket?

Hey, these long, gazing stairs aren't going to cut it.

And we both know how stubborn these elephants are. And we both know you'll

regret screwing this up.

So get it together, Bill. All right.

Did you?

Hey. Isn't this supposed to be bad luck? No, I think that only applies the night

before the wedding.

That was all the bars.

Well, this is quite literally the only bar in town.

What did he say?

I don't know. I rock him up. Tall guy?

I didn't mean to cut you down.

Last I remember, I beat you so bad, you left the bar crying.

Not quite.

I would call it more sobbing.

That was a flu.

On the house.

Thanks. Oh, on the house.

Being a little classic bird.

Mm -hmm. Okay, Sullivan, let's go.

All right, you watching this?

You hustling me, Sullivan?

Looks like you beat me again.

Hey, we're playing our song.

We have a song?

That's great. You don't remember?

Maybe.

May I have this dance?

Yeah.

Yeah, it does.

Last night was fun. Did you guys make it home all right? Yeah. We hit the diner

for some fries, and I was in bed asleep like a baby by 11.

Hey, you need a hand?

Nah, this is the last case.

But I could use some company for this delivery if you're feeling up for it.

I can't believe they still serve breakfast at the alley.

Some of their best customers are the morning regulars.

Another one of our songs.

Another one. I would happily dust off one of the mixed CDs you made me in

school to prove it. I did not make you mixed CDs. I made those for Liv. Okay,

sure. You put Boyz II Men on a mixed CD for Liv, and it somehow ended up in my

package.

So any urgent conference calls?

Can I borrow Freak Grove's most successful export for a little while?

I guess the world of event planning could survive without me for an hour or

What's the most exciting thing you can think of right now?

Starting a business that catches Oprah's attention and then becoming friends

with her.

Can't quite deliver that today.

But how about a little bowl down memory alley?

Are you sure you're ready to go down after last night's fall from great?

Hey, Tim.

Size 12 and a size 6.

I don't know my shoe size.

You haven't changed as much as you think you have.

You

know,

when we were growing up, I couldn't wait to leave this place.

I don't know that you can ever leave your home behind.

Not entirely.

Yeah.

It's funny, I mean, I thought I'd miss the energy of the city more, but it's

kind of nice being able to hear myself think.

What are you thinking about?

I need to get some fresh perspective so I can win back my clients.

Win back?

Yeah, because despite my killer marketing skills...

There's a new girl who's been taking all the business I normally count on.

I know, I always thought that if you worked hard, you got what you wanted.

What do you want?

It's not that easy.

Life can be simple, you know?

Simple doesn't mean boring.

Yeah, well, in my world, simple is boring and simple is the kiss of death.

Well, not that you asked for it, but if you wanted my opinion.

War World sounds gothic, Max. I drank three coffees this morning.

Finally, something we can agree on.

What would happen if you didn't look?

Wouldn't know who needed me for something.

Well, what if I told you I needed you for something?

What? I need you to just stop.

There's a whole world.

One maybe you might just love.

Beyond your screen.

I, um, sorry, this is an alarm. I have to go. I have an appointment in town for

something. Wedding stuff?

No, something else that, um, I'll tell you later.

Okay.

So, Mac, to what do I owe the pleasure? I want to talk to you about the farm.

Look, before we go any further, I really can't discuss the farm's finances

without your father being present.

Well, you don't have to tell me about the foreclosure notice because I saw it

printed in bright red.

Yeah, I'm really sorry you had to see that.

So you can understand why I'm concerned.

Well, look, if you can get your father's authorization, I'm happy to walk you

through what's been happening.

Frank, we both know he doesn't want me to worry, and I'm really far beyond

but I'm not a child anymore.

You should talk to him, Mac.

If there's anything I can do, you'll let me know?

Please? Mac, you and I both know that your father, he's as stubborn as a mule.

So, we're going to have to build a farm.

Well, like I told Dylan, that would be hard to do right now.

Dylan?

Yeah. Yeah, he mentioned that to me.

Right. Well, then I'm kind of surprised he didn't share the rest of the details

with you.

No, he did. He did. He told me everything. He just, um, I mean, he

than I could do. Right?

Right. And as I said to Dylan, I can't just hand everything over to him. Now,

what I need is to have your father here himself to sign those documents.

Because Dylan wants to transfer ownership of the farm over to himself.

Look, Mac, I really shouldn't be talking to either of you two without Elliot

being present.

Now, I know that Dylan has power of attorney.

Power of attorney?

When did that happen?

Well, ever since the last bout with your father's health issues.

What about me?

Look, Mac, I'm not sure.

Now, I know that your father didn't want to add any more pressure to your life

given how busy things are for you in New York.

And besides, the fact of the matter is...

I can't really consider either one of you two doing anything with the farm.

I mean, for that to happen, your dad would need to be deemed unfit.

And you and I both know that his stubbornness is not likely to stand up

medical condition.

I really wish I could help.

I know. Thank you so much, Frank. I appreciate it.

Sure. Look, one of my tellers needs my help. You'll have to excuse me. Okay.

You take care of yourself, okay? You too.

If I hadn't been busy playing Cinderella while bowling, I would have seen this

coming.

Ooh, the annual Sullivan Family Sugar Off.

You know, this has always been my favorite meal of the year, so thanks for

having us, Mr. S.

You're welcome. It's great to have you all here. It's great to have my brother.

And on that note, I'd like to propose a toast.

Thanks for being here, all of you.

This farm is more about the people around this table than it is about the

outside. So, cheers.

It definitely is. I remember Liv and I had our first kiss on this farm, right

behind the barn. Second, hon.

The first was our tree by the church.

Right, the tree.

Anyways,

what I'm trying to say is we owe a dent of gratitude to the Sullivans for

bringing us together.

Maybe you can name your first child Elliot or Mac.

Certainly not Dylan.

Loyalty would be a key component in naming their child.

You know, my favorite memory of growing up on the farm is just watching my

parents dedicate themselves to the family business, growing it from the

up as a family farm.

Yeah. Well, you'll all remember this one.

Sorry, excuse me. I just can't go down memory lane anymore.

I got it.

What's going on with you, Phillip?

What's going on with me? Nothing. Nothing is going on with me.

That answer wasn't so convincing. I swear you're mad at me.

Why would I be mad at you? Is there anything that you've done recently that

think might upset me?

What are you talking about?

I can't do this right now, Dylan. I promised Liv that I would get these

favors ready.

Really? Yeah.

I'm going to fill each and every one of them with our liquid Sullivan gold, one

for each guest.

Oh, here, let me help you with that. I don't need your help.

We don't need any of your grand plans, in fact.

We? My family, my dad, me.

Okay.

I'm clearly missing a piece of the puzzle here.

I'm just saying I think it's about time my dad makes some changes around here.

What kind of changes?

Because I've been meaning to talk to you about some changes.

You know, your dad's been struggling.

Yeah, mm -hmm.

I've been thinking that everyone loves a country getaway, you know, and maybe

with the right trendy touches that could attract a higher -end clientele.

And who'd you have in mind?

Oprah? It's funny.

I haven't quite figured that part out yet, but I do think that, you know,

if I did some exclusive VIP gatherings, maybe some immersive experiences, I just

think there's so much space on this farm to do so much more.

This farm has too much heart to become some country conference site.

Fine.

What's your big idea, Dylan? You have any secret ideas that you want to tell

you're my dad?

Just that we need to get this place outfitted with modern equipment so we

produce enough syrup to get our product out there. Once people get a taste of

how special this place is, we won't need to worry about hashtags or death lists.

Okay, so why haven't we done that?

Good equipment costs more than we have.

Right. Well, if you...

Want to attract investors, you need to get attention.

You know the saying, if a tree falls in the forest and there's no one around to

hear it, Sullivan Farms isn't making a sound.

If you want to know what I've really been thinking, it's just, well,

you and I, we could do it together.

We've always made a great team, Mac, and...

On this farm?

I know we could turn it around.

Is there something that you want to say to me, Dylan?

Yeah.

What?

What, uh... I'm not sure.

Telling you here with everyone in your shop at the right time.

Okay, great. I figured it out. You know what?

I have a career to save and a wedding to plan, and then I will just get to this.

This? Oh, I can't do this right now.

Hey, Tristan, what's up?

Girl, this isn't good.

I don't know how much more I can take on the bad news department, Tristan.

Jasmine, she, uh, just stole another one of your clients.

Look, you know I love you, but the big boss is saying we might have to make

changes. Changes?

I've been giving you a door out, but it's up to you to make a move and to

for what you've earned.

But how can I do that from over here?

Look, I know the timing isn't ideal, but you've got to figure out a way to show

her that you're still on top.

And do it fast, because if you're not back in the city soon, your clients

even remember who you are, and your job is gone.

Hey.

Hey, is she going to tell me what's going on?

Oh, you know me, just making a mess of the kitchen, my career, everything.

Well, maybe it's time to just blow things down a bit. No, Liv, I can't just

down and watch my career fall apart.

Anyway, I have to meet the DJ today. He's coming, and I need to show him the

church gardens. Well, Dylan can do that. No, he can't. Whoa.

What is going on with you two today?

Nothing. He's... I just... I don't trust Dylan to do things like that. I don't

really trust him to do anything right now. Slow down there, Mac.

That's my cousin you're talking about.

Yeah, I know. And my best friend since high school, one of them. And I'm sorry,

Dot. Mac.

You have cut him out of your life for the last decade.

But that's not the point, Liv. What is the point, Mac?

What are we even talking about?

It's just... Caring about someone and trusting them are two completely

different things.

Meaning what?

Meaning... I don't know. I don't know. I don't know anything anymore.

I'm going to go to church. I'm going to talk to the DJ.

Everything's going to be fine, and we'll talk about all this later, okay? I love

you.

I love you, too.

Hey, Anazeish. Anazigi.

Anazigi, right.

I'm Mackenzie. Welcome to Sweet Grove.

Babe, when you said it would be an intimate gig, I thought you meant

Beach or Sunrise Intimate. This is really not my brand.

I don't know what my publicist was thinking.

I know that, babe, but different is good, right?

What made you?

I mean... So I just wanted to tell you to get comfortable and let's make this a

show no one will ever forget.

You got me sweating for a minute. I thought you were going to ask me to play

Macarena for grannies.

Okay, here's what I'm thinking. We do a stage right in there. Oh, and let's get

that light set up from Berlin, the flashing one you can see from space,

Let's get it going before we get going. I don't mean to interrupt, but you do

know the wedding's in two days, right?

Yeah, for tonight.

I'm doing the pre -show, putting this out on social, right?

It was kind of the deal for the preview, I was told.

Pre -show?

The country show before the show.

Yeah, right, of course.

We should probably talk about hosting.

Hey, Dad.

Finally, Mac.

It's your dad. You need to get home.

Oh, gosh.

Um, just... Okay.

Dr. Scott. Hey, Mac. What happened? Where's my dad? Deep breath. Your dad's

fine. He's in his room.

Heart attack?

Minor. Your dad's a strong man. Young.

He just needs to take it easy for a few days and make some changes.

Now, I gave Dylan the medication for him, and I'll check back tomorrow. Thank

you so much. Of course.

Hi.

Simmer down, bug.

You wouldn't want to blow a gasket like your old man, huh?

It's not funny.

It's just a scare, that's all.

A little rat, I'll be right as rain.

Somehow that's not that comforting.

You and I both know there are no promises in life, huh?

But I'm here.

I'm fine.

Yeah, but just... I know. Come.

Come here.

Come on over.

Sweetheart.

I just couldn't live without you, Dad.

Okay? So you gotta take it easier.

I know.

Oh. Hey.

Hey.

Honey, could you get me a cup of hot water?

Yeah.

Yeah, sure.

Be right back, okay?

Thanks.

Took a tumble there.

Yeah.

It's just a fall. I'll be right back at her again tomorrow.

Actually, no.

No, you won't, Elliot.

You are going to relax.

Let me do the job you hired me for.

I'm going to be fine. You're setting your weight.

I've always respected that.

You gotta loosen the reins.

Now.

It's two strikes you've had now.

We don't want a third.

Okay. Okay? Okay.

Okay, I'll... I'll take it easy.

But since we're on the topic of being set in our ways, have you ever

the possibility that you might be sidestepping a few unhealthy ways of

These trees are an art land.

They will be here long after we're both in the ground.

Losing the plot of land ain't nothing.

Losing the love.

I have something to fret over.

Elliot, I think you've always made a point of being honest with me, son.

Maybe it's time to be honest with yourself.

Take the leap.

If you do,

You might just score yourself a pretty dapper father -in -law.

I sure as heck have always considered you to be a son.

What? Hey.

Hey.

Hey, can you stay with my dad for a little while?

Of course.

Where are you going?

I'll tell you later. I've got to go to the church.

I was just looking through Grammy's old stuff, and look what I found. Her old

compact. It can be my something old.

What's wrong?

It's just that... What is it?

I'm so sorry, Liz.

DJ Energies plays wedding scene countryside party live?

He had a pre -show for his followers.

Is that our tree?

In our church?

I didn't think that... Please tell me this is a joke. My best friend didn't

out my wedding for 15 seconds of internet fame.

I... You?

I've just been under a lot of pressure at work, Lynn. I, I, I am so sick of

hearing about what's being done to you, Mac.

Your work did this. The DJ did that.

Dylan? Dylan can't be trusted?

You're the one who can't be trusted, Mac.

You have no one but yourself to blame for your...

Unhappiness. I can take this.

Don't. You've done enough.

Go.

Chocolate cake with that?

I messed up, Dylan.

Like, really, really messed up.

How bad is the church?

They trashed it.

I mean, I cleaned it up, but... Yard's a mess, and the tree's still stained. I

don't know how I'm gonna fix that, but... It's still standing, though,

Yeah.

I just thought that if I was gonna help Liv, and then somehow get some work

going for me, you know, and... You there, Sullivan?

There is your problem. Yeah, I get it.

My life and my work need to be background noise.

That's not what I'm saying.

Fine, what are you saying?

It just seems like your values are in the crossfire of a life I'm not entirely

sure you want or need.

But what I want and need is for my dad to be healthy.

And what I want and need is for my best friend not to hate me and...

You know, as much as it pains me to admit, what I actually want is for my

to not just be circling around the drain after I've given everything I have to

my career, and I'm starting to think that the latter makes me a bad person,

so... So fix it.

He said... All of it. Yeah, I'm trying.

And no thanks to you.

Me? Come on, Dylan.

When were you going to tell me that you were running my dad into the grave?

How do you think?

I went to the bank, okay? So instead of worrying about me and my life choices,

maybe you should worry a little bit more about how you look yourself in the

mirror. Mac, you're missing some information.

Frank told me everything.

I mean, power of attorney, Dylan. Mac.

I can't talk about this right now, Dylan, all right? I just... Let's just

on Liv and Stuart's wedding, okay? And I don't even know. I don't know. I don't

know. All I know right now is that I probably never should let you back into

life. Or my dad. I mean, my life's fine. You know, my life is a mess, but my

dad's wasn't, and at least maybe then I could help him.

Seems like you already made up your mind about that.

You know what?

I don't have time for this.

What are you doing out of bed?

A little paperwork.

But the doctor said... Yeah, the doctor said it was okay for me to sit at my own

kitchen counter.

Okay.

I know that look.

What's up, bug?

Okay, look.

I'm just going to come out and tell you.

Dad, Dylan's trying to take the farm from you.

And now he knows that I know. And with power of attorney, he's just going to

take it from you. That's what you think?

Bug, Dylan.

has been working like a mule to drag this farm into the modern world, to drag

into the modern world, because I'm the one that didn't want to change.

Dad, he went to see Frank behind your back.

No, honey.

He went to the bank to shoulder some of the debt to get them off my back.

Seriously? Uh -huh.

It's hard for your old man to admit that he's driven things into the ground, but

here it is.

Why? Just tell me.

Figured I would.

figure a way out of it.

I, uh... I didn't want to take his money yet.

Even though I dropped him as much as I dropped you.

Well... Looks like we could both use that fixing gene Mom had so well.

Yeah.

Hey, you remember those daplings that we... we planted together out back when

you were a kid?

Now you want them to grow overnight, even though I told you over and over

that that is not how maples grow.

Yeah. That they need space for their roots to spread out.

And they need time to stand strong and tall.

Well, you got your strong roots right here.

Now it's time for you to stand up tall.

Time for both of us to stand tall.

Yeah.

Come here.

You're going to figure it out.

Ugh.

Talk about trying to find a needle in a haystack, literally.

Kristen, what on earth are you doing here?

Paul, you sounded so pathetic in your text. I just had to come and rescue you.

Oh, my gosh, I love you. Okay, listen, I think I know how to fix this wedding,

but you're going to have to follow all of my directions.

Sorry, girl.

Tristan Chu follows his inspiration wherever it leads.

No, if we're going to fix this, we actually have to follow Liz's vision.

You think I came all the way over here not to help you fix this?

Okay. Step one.

I'm turning off my phone.

Well, now that's a cry for help if ever I've seen one. I really need to go get

it. Not worried about missing any calls from that hot farmer you've been trying

to talk yourself out of?

What do you know about that?

I know everything.

Or at least I like to allude to it.

I like you the way I wish I could say you until I'm broken. Maybe curl the

Give it a little.

Give me a little bit of baby white.

We're going to have an archery night.

For way too long, I was put in places. I've been feeling

all the day.

Couldn't turn them away.

Those familiar places.

There certainly is something about the country that makes a person breathe

easier. I'm sorry, did I just hear Tristan Chu say something complimentary

a backwoods dump?

Don't tell anyone.

So, do you think we saved the wedding?

Boy, do I hope so.

You're baby besties.

She'll forgive you, Mac.

No one is perfect.

Except maybe me.

Sometime.

I know that...

I haven't been a good listener lately, and so it's ironic that I'm asking you

listen to me now.

Liv, I've been so focused on myself and the obnoxious, filthy, clean Jasmine,

and I've lost focus of what was really important, which is our friendship,

and... I'm sorry.

And I hope you'll find a way to forgive me.

You have been a little frustrating recently.

Will you let me make it up to you?

Have I ever been able to stop you from doing anything?

Good point.

Listen, your wedding's still on for this afternoon, and while I love this look,

I think we can do better.

Come in.

Oh,

this is the dress. You look so stunning. Don't cry, because I'll cry.

I don't know if I'm wearing waterproof mascara.

Okay.

I'm so sorry that I broke your grandmother's compact.

Though I've been thinking maybe we could use all of our memories as your

something old.

Until I found this.

The big CD you made me in high school.

I found it in my bedroom.

Can we listen to it quick?

I think we should probably get you married first.

Good point.

Yeah. Yeah.

Walking down the street with a new pep in my zip.

I found my beat. Either way, it's not good.

Yeah.

Are you sure? I'm sure.

Sure, sure.

Okay, now go down to your seat. We're almost ready. Go.

Nothing.

There's just nothing to go. Are you ready?

You sure are.

You look so beautiful.

Okay. Okay.

Come on, Dad.

Maestro.

Love doesn't always come easily, but when we nurture true love, it's

It makes us brave and gives us the courage to be the best versions of

Today's world can be complicated, but the golden rule of marriage is simple.

Love your partner for who they are and help them become who they want to be.

So, Stuart, do you take Olivia to be your wife?

Do you promise to love her for who she is and who she aspires to be for all the

days of your life?

I do.

Olivia, do you take Stuart to be your husband?

Do you promise to love him for who he is and who he aspires to be for all the

days of your life?

I do.

You may present the ring.

It's here somewhere.

Thanks, buddy.

Well,

in that case, I now pronounce you husband and wife.

Well, he didn't wait for me.

Olivia seems really happy. Well, you should be happy too.

Hashtag love is trending.

Videos are going viral and your clients are freaking.

This authentic vibe is exactly what they're after.

Kristen, I said no social media.

Maybe you should ask your bride about that.

Olivia? Mm -hmm.

Your former clients are sliding into my DMs begging to be back in business.

Are you hearing me? You've still got a job.

For now, enjoy the wedding, and we'll talk through the details when you get

to the city.

The thing is, I think for the first time in my entire life, I actually know what

I want and need, and I'm not so sure that's in New York.

Well, then, better go and get it, girl, because that tall drink of muscle might

get scooped up quick.

Okay, can you hold my drink?

Oh, maybe after your speech first?

Right, shoot, I almost forgot.

That's why you have me.

Hi. Hi.

Hi, everyone.

Thank you so much for being here tonight.

Over these past few days, I have been reminded of so many things, how

and forgiving our amazing community is.

Why it will always be my home.

And how special it is to witness two people who truly love each other.

Stuart, I am happy to share Olivia with you. And, you know, you can even come on

our weekend campouts, but only if you promise to do those amazing dance moves

all just saw you do.

Seriously.

Congratulations, you two.

And...

Word on the street is we actually have an old school CD player that might just

be able to play one of those old school songs I've seen you two dance to so many

years ago.

So, to the dance floor with your beautiful bride, which, well, you're

there, so have one done.

And here is to many dances to come and your very first slow dance as a married

couple.

Cheers.

Go and get it done.

Okay.

You wouldn't happen to be as forgiving as your

cousin, would you?

Try me.

Sorry.

I think that pretty much sums up what I want to say the most.

You think?

Because I was hoping maybe you might say I love you.

Love me?

Was what I was hoping you'd say.

That's what you most wanted to say.

No.

Because I sure as heck love you, Mackenzie Sullivan.

Really?

Always have.

I love you, too.

And I have something to ask you.

Dylan, I don't know that I'm ready for that, though.

Kenzie Sullivan, will you stay in Maple Grove

to be annoyed by me for as long as you shall let me?

I'll be there to catch you if you fall in purple.

Every time that you fall in purple.

Oh, I'm sorry.

You're just so trendy right now.

Is that

a wedding

veil? Whoever's in possession of the veil will find true love.

We should buy it together, and we should pass it to one another in keeping with

the legend.

Does this thing come with a guarantee? So is it fate or coincidence?

I don't know. The first movie in the Wedding Vale trilogy.

Do you think this is the one?

Yeah, I do.

Lacey Chabert, Autumn Reeser, and Allison Sweeney. Anything is possible.

Maybe the legend is real. The Wedding Vale, all new next Saturday night at 8

Hallmark.
