I was born in the summer of 1977
in Los Angeles, California.

My father, John Kinney, received
the news of my birth two days later

when a telegram reached him
on the Greek island of mykonos,

where he was directing a film.

He said it had
just started raining,

and the telegram arrived sopping
wet and written in Greek.

The film's camera operator
translated.

"Congratulations!
She's six pounds, 12 ounces,

and her name is Alice."

I'm told so much
champagne popped that night

it sounded like fireworks.

My father made personal films that
captured the spirit of his generation.

He found the truth
in the bedroom,

the agony in love,

and the humor in it all.

In my father's obituary,

the New York times
called him a "comic poet, "

a sentiment, I assure you, no one
would have loved more than him.

My dad's work brought him
great joy, respect and success.

And with that success,
he bought this car

and this house, where I lived every
other weekend of my childhood.

My dad's personal life
was a little less of a success.

He married several women.

And lived with several more.

But he was the first to admit the end of
his affairs was always entirely his fault.

This was certainly the case
with his last wife,

my beautiful mother, Lilian.

My mother was 22 years old
when she met my dad,

which made her
26 years his junior.

Theirs was a real "hold on
to your hat" kind of love,

a love that would never last.

My parents divorced
soon after my fourth birthday.

Unfortunately for my mother,

this inspired some
of my dad's best work.

But he said
it was me

who completed
his third act.

My dad wasn't very sentimental,
but he always loved my birthday.

Every year,
he'd say the same thing.

"This is your day.
Your year.

Get ready, Alice.
The future is yours."

Mom?
- Mom, are you in there?

Yeah, just a sec.

Mom, remember the drought!

Oh, yeah.

Mom, open up!
- Open the door!

I'm coming.

Happy birthday!

Oh, my gosh, you guys.

Come here. Mmm.

Mom, is everything okay?

Yeah. I'm great.

It's my birthday.
And I love you both so much.

Okay,
who wants pancakes?

I do!
I do!

So, girls, how are we feeling?

First day, new school.
You nervous? You excited?

Excited. Definitely.

Nervous. Extremely.

Wait. Can kids
have heart attacks?

Oh, my gosh, honey, no.
But I understand.

This is a big deal. Do you want
to listen to your favorite song?

Or maybe we
could go over your schedule

and talk about
what's making you anxious.

I don't wanna do
that doctor's stupid exercises.

Can't I just go on antidepressants
like every other kid?

Oh, my god. Isabel. For the
billionth time, you are not depressed.

I'm positive.
- Please, mom?

You know, I'm feeling exhausted,
hopeless, anxious,

and I don't enjoy the things
that I once loved.

Music, please!

I'm not alone, you know.

Depression affects
over 20 million Americans,

and I'm an American, so...

Where are you getting this from?
- The Zoloft commercial.

Obviously.
Okay, iz,

you're being
a little bit dramatic.

You're gonna walk into
first period- - oh, no!

What? What did you forget?
- My summer reading book report.

Oh, god.
Okay. It's no big deal.

I'm gonna drop you guys
off at school,

and I'll go back to the house
and bring it to you, okay, honey?

But please try and be more responsible.
- I'm working on it.

Okay.
It's okay.

E
- mail it to me, and I can print it out in the library.

See?
- Well, assuming I have time and they let me.

Okay, this is it.

Wow!

This is gonna be great.

Look at this. It is so much prettier
than your school in New York.

It has trees
and sunshine.

Look at that cool mural. Okay,
you want me to walk you in?

No!
- Got it. Unanimous.

All right. Don't forget
that after school,

we're gonna have a little birthday
celebration with ice cream,

and then tonight you guys are
sleeping over at Nanna's house.

Can you tell Nanna
i go to bed at 9:00 now?

I think it's 8:45, missy.

But, yes, I will tell her.

Love you.

Love you, honey.

Have a good day.
I will.

Hi, welcome.

Hi.

Isabel?

You got this. You've got
a great first day outfit.

You're hilarious.
You're brilliant.

You're cool.
You're a city kid.

Mom...

You're gonna be great.
I promise.

I guess.

But right now,
i just wanna go home.

It's okay. You're gonna be home before you know it.
- I meant to New York.

Happy birthday, mom.

Thanks, sweetie.

Have fun!

Hollywood boulevard is famous
for the walk of fame.

It has the different stars-
your payment is late.

I hear you. But all we need is another
five hours. Let us keep the stuff here.

We'll figure out the money, and we'll
get it to you. It won't be a problem.

I'm not running a charity here.
You have to leave now.

Okay. You know what, rajeesh?
We're talking in circles.

We paid the first two weeks. We
didn't think we'd be here for a third.

But if you give us until
tonight, it's all gonna be good.

Get out. Now! Go!

Okay. I have to say i think you
are being incredibly difficult,

maybe even slightly irrational.

What are you doing?
What is that?

So now I am calling the police. The pol
- oh.

So? So I gotta get changed
or we're gonna be late.

What'd he say? What
happened? He's a maniac.

Indians never like me.
Okay.

Teddy, you packed? Oh, sorry.
Thought you said you had a plan.

You are looking at it.
- George, enough.

We need to focus on our meeting.
Let's go over the pitch.

Teddy, should we run lines? I think it could
be good to act out some bits in the room.

I'll play Sam.
You play Jane.

But I'm playing Sam in the movie.
- Oh. Fine.

I'll play Jane then.
- Let's just make sure we stick to our guns, okay?

I've heard horror stories
about great scripts

getting totally dismantled
by these kinds of people.

Aren't these people who are
gonna help us get our movie made?

I've read about it.
It happens.

Also, let's agree not to get talked out
of shooting the movie in black and white.

Perfect.
Right?

I get it, and I don't need the extra
weird stare. Guys, we're gonna do great.

I have a good feeling about
this. Everybody ready to rumble?

Yeah, wait.
Where we gonna stay?

Do I look worried?

Alice Kinney
is the principal owner

and designer
of Alice Kinney designs.

Alice is-

a depressed,

newly separated... loser.

Hello?
- - There she is.

The California girl.
Hey.

How's your birthday going?

It's good, so far.

There's a lot going on. It's
the girls' first day of school.

You called them, right?
Uh, hey.

I do not need you...
To remind me to do that.

Okay. So you did or you didn't?

They will hear from me
before the end of the day.

Anyway, look.

I was calling you
to wish you a very happy 40th.

It's fine, right?
It's not as bad as you thought.

It's-it's going great so far.

I'm very busy. I'm just prepping
for that job interview tomorrow.

Oh, right, yeah, yeah.
Good luck with that.

Thanks. Uh, listen, Austen, have you
heard anything about the move here?

Because the girls ask me every
single day. "Is daddy coming?

When's he getting his house?"

I'm kind of running
out of answers. Oh, yeah.

I ask all the time too.

They think they might have found someone
to run things out there. So that's good.

Yeah, and once that happens, then
things should all fall into place.

Austen,
they're ready for you.

I'll be there in one sec. Alice?

Yeah.
Don't get mad at me

for saying this, but...

I miss you.

My boys. You made it!

Yes!

You told us if we were serious
about this, it was la or bust.

So here we are.
- Listen. So sorry I had to keep pushing this meeting.

It's the end of the summer, the Jewish
holiday. This time of year is insane.

No worries at all.
- All right. Good stuff. So here we go. Okay.

Harry dorsey, Teddy
dorsey, George appleton.

Director, writer, star of
mad youth, the best short-

you know what? No, the
best film i saw at south by.

Whoa.
Thank you.

Paul hasn't stopped talking
about you since the festival.

I'm Jason. Great to
meet you. I'm Jason too.

Double Jasons. Mind-blowing,
yeah. I know, it's crazy.

Let's have a seat, everybody.
Now listen up.

We have some great ideas

about how to turn your short
into a feature.

And, again,
i really did love it.

I saw it again this morning while
I was running on the treadmill.

It is special.
- This is a breakout role for you, Teddy.

We should get you out
on auditions right away.

Yeah?
- Definitely.

And, George, your writing-

your writing is so spot-on.
I just love that Joan character.

I think we've all had a Joan
in our lives, am I right?

Thanks. It's Jane.
- Would you ever be interested in any episodic work?

I mean, yeah.

But in terms of our movie,
what's the next move here?

Right. Okay. Well, first thing we
need to do is to attach a producer.

And it just so happens
somebody's already interested.

I might have slipped your short
to Justin Miller-

and he kinda flipped for it.

Justin Miller?
- Is that the guy who produces all those horror movies?

He's been looking to do
something a little more human.

He's very smart, by the way, and he's
done insanely well off those horror films.

Okay, guys.

He's a big producer. He likes
your movie. This is a good thing.

Definitely. But does he know we
don't have a finished script yet?

Yeah, and that is a great thing, actually,
because Justin wants to develop it with you guys.

And this one here
looks like he wants to kill me.

No, that's just George.

Only thing is, i talked
to his development guy,

and they're concerned about the
movie being in black and white.

That's okay, that's okay. We can, uh-

maybe we can talk him into it.
- Right. Okay, guys, look.

If you don't like him,
we're gonna find somebody else.

But Justin can make
your movie happen.

So be open. Okay?

Yeah. We're open.

Here you go.
Thank you so much.

I know you're his brother. Shh.

Are you
- are you Teddy dorsey from mad youth?

I'm just trying to be a
normal human being for one day.

Oh, my god.
I'm a huge fan.

Har, can we chat for 30 seconds
about the black-and-white thing?

George, have a little faith,
please. Let me get it off my chest.

Guys, guys. Hey. I wanna
make a toast. Seriously.

To this incredible journey
and to us and-

hey, how's it going? Hi.
Hi.

That was
a beautiful toast.

Very moving.
I love la.

Oops. Sorry, sorry.

No problem.

Do you like it?
I love this. Yes.

It is your best
business card yet.

Oh, thanks.
But be honest with me.

Am I one of those women who
thinks every one of their hobbies

is worthy of being
a profession?

What? No.
- Maybe you're just good at too many things.

I love you, but I was a terrible clothing
designer and even worse photographer.

Come on. That's what
you've always been great at.

No, it's true. I don't
wanna say i told you so,

but I have been saying
this for, what, 13 years?

Well, we will see. I have a meeting
with my first potential client tomorrow.

That's amazing. Who?
- Her name is Zoey bell?

Have you heard of her?
- No.

She's a socialite, I guess.

Anyway, that's what I found out from
googling her for eight hours last night.

That's awesome.
- Yeah, I'm nervous.

Okay.
- What?

Don't kill me
for saying this,

but there's this sweet guy in my yoga class.
- What?

No. Just hold on. He's newly divorced.

He told me he wants
to be set up with someone.

I'm not ready.
You are.

I have only been separated
for five months.

My god, some people get
remarried after five months.

Okay, but I have a lot
going on with the move

and Isabel
and the girls in a new school.

And i-
look, I'm starting a business.

Right.
Okay.

I need to get settled
and-

girls, it's my birthday.
Let's just have fun.

So where on the east coast
are you from?

New York.
No way.

I'm from New York.
- Really?

Yeah. Where in New
York are you from? Hi.

The Upper East Side.
How about you?

Well, not nearly as cool as
Upper East Side. Hello? Excuse me.

Pardon me.
Can I help you?

Can I have
two glasses of ros�, please?

Yes.
- Thank you.

Hi. How you doin' tonight?

Me?
Uh, yeah.

Oh, um, I'm doing great.

Thank you for asking.
Mm-hmm.

I'd like to offer to buy you drinks
- really.

But I think
the bartender is

slightly under the impression
that I'm taking her home tonight.

Oh. But you're not.

No, I'm not.
And why is that?

Because then I'd have to
stop talking to you.

I hate to do this, but the manager
is making me ask for your ID, so...

So I'll give it
to you then.

Okay.

How's that? You should
take it as a compliment.

Mm-hmm.

I'm Harry, by the way.

I'm definitely old enough
to drink alcohol. Ooh.

I'm Alice. Me too.
Obviously.

Bar's closing. How does
everybody feel about dancing?

Whoo! Yes!
- For sure!

Yeah, somebody feels great.

Oh.

Sorry. Are you okay?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm fine.

Just alcohol makes me
a little bit nervous.

And also kissing
a complete stranger.

Mm-hmm.
But I'm fine, I'm fine.

You okay?
Yeah, yeah, I'm good.

Is it super hot in here?

Oh.

Sorry. I just need a second. Yeah, yeah.

Do you want water
or a cold washcloth?

Wow. You are so maternal,
Alice. You should be a mom.

All right.
I think I'm gonna-

uh
- yep. Yep. Yep. Oh.

Okay.

Hi.
- Oh, hi.

You're awake.
Yeah.

How are you feeling?

Better. Better.
Good, good.

Oh, Alice, I'm so sorry you
had to see me like that. Yeah.

Oh.
It's not exactly a stellar first impression.

Please. I used to throw up all
the time when I was your age.

Oh.

I mean, not all the time,
but, you know, I get it.

Yeah. My embarrassment level
is still a 10.

So- oop.

Sorry.
Oh, yeah.

I had clothes on
when I got here, right?

Yeah, I don't know where-
yeah, I don't know when they-

mm-hmm. But here they are.
Thanks.

I guess George and Teddy
left me here.

They must have thought
we, uh-

uh, no, no.
Um, they're in the living room.

I guess they passed out too.
Oh.

I guess we all raged last night.
Yeah.

Did you wash these?
- I did.

But only because i was doing a
load, and I've been up since 5:30.

Thanks.
- Yeah. No problem.

Uh- okay.
I'll get out of your hair then.

Great.
Okay.

Not that you
- you do not have to feel bad about any of this.

I never get out, like, ever.

So this was actually really good
for me, and I had a really fun time.

And, thanks to you, I didn't do
anything I regret, so...

And I just always act out
on my birthday.

It's like my own personal new
year's Eve, so I just go, like, waah!

Then I just reel it back
to normal.

Look, hey, I'm happy to let
some steam out of the kettle.

I'm, uh, gonna stand up now.

Oh, yeah, exactly.
Yes, okay, of course.

Grab it quickly.
Okay, okay.

I can't believe you're making us
late on our first week of school.

I said sorry.

Hurry up, you guys.
Rosebud, grab the backpack.

Okay, Nanna.

Well, well.

Huh.

Okay, you're just gonna
grab the backpack.

Hi. What are you guys doing home? I
thought Nanna was taking you to school.

What's going on?
You're acting weird.

I'm not acting weird.
Oh, my-

oh, my god.
- -Alice.

What?

He was fixing that- you know that thing
that's broken in my room underneath the-

uh, iz, can you
go fix Rosie a bagel?

Sure. Come on.
Thanks.

Mom.
- Who are those guys?

I don't know.
- You could've called first.

Well, who would've thought you'd
have company at 7:00 in the morning?

So, uh, we're just
gonna slip out.

Thank you very much
for everything, Mrs., um-

oh, my god.
- You look so familiar.

Have we met before?

That's insane.

No, I feel like i definitely
know you from somewhere.

She was married to John Kinney.
She was in all of his movies.

Who's this one now?

Oh, my god.
- Wait.

You're Lilian Stewart.
That's awesome. Really?

And I'm pretty sure
this is John Kinney's house.

Hold on. How do you
know all of this?

I stumbled into that room back there
with all your dad's stuff. I'm sorry.

I just got a little lost. I'm a
huge, huge fan of your father's.

You're John Kinney's daughter?
- Yes, she is. And you are?

Am I free to head home
now? 'Cause i- - not yet.

Yep. Okay.
- As fun as this has been, believe it or not,

I have a meeting to go to,
so maybe we should wrap it up.

We're filmmakers too, you know?
Just like your husband.

Everybody is, doll.
We're in la.

I can't believe you're here
and you're you. This is surreal.

You're a terrific actress.
- Come on. I mean, I did a few small parts here and there.

You were also smokin' hot. Like in
the movie with the yellow bikini.

I was like, "whoa, hello!"
- Come on!

Alice, did you hear what he said? Yes.

John sits down at the table next to
mine at ma Maison, and 10 minutes later,

he pulls his chair up to mine
and offers me the lead in Lola.

Said he liked the way I
ordered my quiche Lorraine.

I know.
- So I have to get going.

Does anybody
wanna walk out with me?

Actually, I'm gonna stay and
make the boys some breakfast.

So can you drive the kids
to school? This is so fun.

Is that cool if we hang with your
mom for a little? Yeah. No, no.

That's fine with me.

Wait, you're saying that was
your first movie ever?

I know, right?

Hey, Alice? Do you have a minute? Yeah.

Sure. Could we just maybe
exchange phone numbers or-

I don't know.
Harry, I'm very late.

Listen, I think you woke up to a completely
different person than you met last night.

And I appreciate the
gesture, i really do,

but how old are you,
like, 30?

Twenty-nine?

Twenty-eight?
Something like that.

Oh, Jesus.
- Bye, Nanna.

Okay, girls, come on.
Time to get in the car.

Okay, okay.
She's so intense.

No, I'm not.

Good luck with everything.
Maybe I'll see you around.

Hope so.
Come on, ladies.

Did you guys have a sleepover?
- -What?

How did you meet? Yeah, are
you friends with their mom?

Friends with their mom?
How old do I look?

I don't know. Mom age.

Wow, you have done just a
tremendous amount of work, Alice.

Oh, yeah. This is just a lot of blue.

Well, I googled your house-

yeah. And I thought the
Hamptons thing would be great.

Yeah. Why don't you
sit down for a second.

Oh, sure.
Yeah. I-i, um-

god, I feel like i might've
misled you in some way.

Because the truth is i don't
have this much stuff for you.

At least not right now.
Oh, okay.

Maybe I misunderstood, because on the
phone you said you were unhappy with things.

Yeah, yeah, and I did
say that. I did say that.

You're absolutely right.
I am unhappy with things.

But if I'm just being
honest with you,

I was working with
this other interior decorator,

and we just have creative differences,
or whatever you want to call it.

Like I just kind of hated her,
and so i had to let her go.

And I'm looking for someone really just
to coordinate deliveries and pickups

and that kind of thing, and
then after we wrap all that,

then maybe we can talk about you doing
some of the rooms that she didn't get to.

Does that sound okay
with you?

Oh, yeah. Of course.
Absolutely. I'm up for anything.

'Cause there is one room that I
would need you to start right away.

That would be amazing.
What room?

It's my daughter
Gwyneth's playroom.

Okay. Do you want to
show me the room?

I can't do that right now
because I have to take this call.

I'm sorry about that,
and I have a blowout.

But why don't you e- mail me,
and then- of course. Well, um-

okay, so the meeting's over. Then
we'll sort of organize everything.

Okay. Should I follow
- okay. Marta, can you please show Alice to g's room?

Marta! By the way, can you just make sure to
take your shoes off when you get into the house.

Yeah, of course. We have a strict
policy. Rob, I hear you. Jesus.

Uh-
no need to yell.

So she taught you
about the solar system?

Mm-hmm.
Oh, can you name any of the planets?

I can name Mercury,
Venus, earth,

Mars, Jupiter, saturn, uranus, Neptune.
- Mm-hmm.

Pluto isn't considered
a proper planet.

All right.
Here you go.

Oh. Oop, sorry. I forgot you.

What?

Just hear me out.

They need a place to crash,
you've got a guesthouse.

So I thought, you know,
maybe they could stay here.

Stay here? I don't even know
two of their names, mom.

Oh, come on. Since when is having three
adorable guys hanging around such a bad thing?

Maybe they could help you
out a little. Help me out?

Help me out with what? Did
they ask you to ask me this?

No. Absolutely not.
Tell the truth.

It was entirely
my idea.

I think these boys have
a real shot at making it.

I adored their movie.
It was raw and great.

You saw their movie?
Yeah. Look.

They're dead broke.

If you don't let them
stay here,

then they have to move home back
to upstate New York or wherever

and blow their chance
at having a career here.

They need you, Alice.
How's that?

They don't know
anyone here.

I like them. Your father
would have liked them.

Be a patron of the arts, Alice.
It's good for the soul.

Why are you suddenly
romanticizing dad?

The man impregnated another woman
while he was still married to you.

Why do you always obsess
over that?

Why don't you obsess
over that?

Because I'm a big girl,
and he's gone now, so I won.

If they hadn't met me,
was there a plan "b"?

Maybe it was fate
that they met you.

Maybe you could be
the person who says,

"they were living at my house when
they wrote" whatever it's called.

Just for a month or so.

A month?
- Okay, a week, whatever.

If it doesn't work out,
sayonara.

But just try
looking at this

as something that could be
sort of exciting.

What if the kids
don't feel comfortable?

You know everything that
Isabel is going through.

This could really
set her off.

Okay.

Yes!

Whoo!
- There we go, there we go, there we go.

We can do better than that.
Okay. All right, we're back.

This is so incredibly cool
of you. Thank you so much.

Seriously, you're a lifesaver.
Can I help you with anything?

Uh, no, I've got it.

Uh, okay. The couch
turns into a bed.

The hot water over here
takes a minute to turn on,

and there's extra towels
in the closet.

Perfect. Thank you.

Uh, I'm just gonna grab that
and flush it down the toilet.

Okay, guys, i hope last
night didn't confuse you.

This is definitely not
an after-party

and crash-on-the-couch
type of place.

This is more of
a market-list-on-the-fridge,

Latin-homework-after-school,
dinner-at-six kind of house.

I know that's not
the coolest stomping grounds

for a bunch of starving
artists like yourselves,

but let's just do our best
not to cramp each other's style.

Okay?
- Well said.

Can I talk to you
outside for a sec?

Alice, I think you and i
should just start over.

Yeah, obviously, we
- well, we had no idea we'd be living together.

We're not. I mean that
I'd be staying here.

And, well, uh, clearly I did
not rock your world last night.

So maybe we should just pretend that whole
thing never happened and start over as friends?

I agree. And I'm actually
glad you brought it up.

Good, and I'm only
saying something

because we're staying here
and the kids and everything.

Harry, we're good.
We're friends.

Who are attracted
to each other.

On just my end.
Not on yours. My bad.

He's telling her
they should just be friends.

How do you know that?
Mm, I speak Harry.

Do you think he'll stick to
it? Depends how long we're here.

She seems uneasy. You
think she's okay with this?

No, I think she's super cool with
it, and this place is gorgeous

and, like, weirdly clean, and
600 times nicer than the hotel!

Okay, let's just stay a couple days
until the Justin Miller meeting.

Oh, my god, I'm not kidding.
You gotta feel these sheets.

Oh, wow, these sheets are
insane. What are they made of?

Dude!
This is pretty great.

You know that was his least
favorite of all his films?

He tried to buy it back from the studio.
- Hi. I'm sorry.

I came over here unannounced.
I'm just an early riser.

Then I noticed that the door was open and
- it's okay.

I've been dying
to get back in here.

Are you joking about
what you just said?

Because this movie is some
of his best work, i think.

Actually, I agree.

Oh, let me show you something
really cool. Sit down.

Okay.
Um...

Okay.

This is the original script
with his notes.

No way.
Yes.

Wow. I just love to see his handwriting.

I literally
have goose bumps.

Why is this all in boxes?

Shouldn't this be at the academy
of motion picture arts and sciences?

Yeah, I just moved back, and I'm having a
hard time letting go of some of these things.

Why did you move back?

If you don't mind
me asking.

No, that's
a very normal question,

and one I should probably
come up with an answer for.

Um
- you know, my husband and i are separated.

He's in the music business, and
there's just a lot of partying.

Which was really fun, and
we had a great time. Yeah.

And then we got older, and we weren't
kids anymore, and then we had kids.

And he was still coming in at 2:00 in
the morning smelling like don Julio.

And I tried to hold it
together. I really, really did.

So hard. It was-

but, you know, god, you make
a decision about your life

when you're 25 years old, and then
you fast-forward 15 years later,

and you think, "god, was that
really the life decision

that's, like, a good life decision
for the rest of your life?"

And then you're just like-
"i don't know!"

Yeah.

I don't know. You know?

I'm sorry about
your marriage,

but you seem to be handling
everything really well.

Oh.

Oh, my god. What?

My new client wants me to come
over, but I told her i can't come.

Isabel has guitar lessons
on Thursdays.

And she wants me to pick her up
a pressed juice on the way?

That's weird, right?

Yeah, I think that
would be considered weird.

Um... I could take Isabel
to class if you want.

I mean, I don't have a car,
but I'd be happy to help.

Really? Thank you.
Yeah.

My dad's old car is in the garage.
You know how to drive a stick, right?

Mm-hmm.

So you like
your new school?

Um, I do not. No.

Oh. Today actually wasn't so bad.

I want to be a writer, and my
homeroom teacher, miss Avery,

told me about
this playwriting contest.

Teachers pick about five plays
to be performed at the fall show.

Miss Avery thinks i should submit
something, but I'm really not sure.

That's so cool.
You should definitely do it.

Well, truthfully,
i would love to,

but we have to perform
our own plays,

and I don't think my body
would physically allow for that.

Won't you regret it if you don't do
it? It sounds like a great opportunity.

Yeah, but I get sort of anxious,
you know? Just sometimes.

It's on and off,
and the cause is unknown,

but it may be related to an
imbalance of natural chemicals

between the nerve cells
and the brain.

Says webmd.

Ah. Sorry.
I should take this.

We'll get back to that.
Uh, hello?

George, Jason green from wca.
How ya doin'?

Hi. I'm great, thanks. Uh, what's
up? I have good news.

There's this thriller I think we
told you about in our meeting.

They're looking for someone
to do a new pass on the script.

I sent over your writing
samples, and they loved them.

Loved. Can I set up a meeting?

Wow, uh, I'm flattered.

That's, uh-
they used the word "loved"?

Really? No, but
you could just tell.

Oh. Is that
the other Jason?

Hi. Yes, I just
jumped on.

Oh, hi. Uh, yeah.

Can I discuss with the guys
and then let you know?

It wouldn't be the worst thing
for you to put your name out there,

make some money.

We got a job. I'll set it
up. This is good. I promise.

Will you let me think about it?
- Hello? Jason?

Other Jason?

That sounds pretty cool.

Yeah.
Yeah, it does, right?

I just don't know if I'm
ready to go out on my own.

Won't you regret it if you don't do
it? Sounds like a great opportunity.

I like what you did there.

That was good.
Mm-hmm.

Okay, so we're gonna redo
the whole playroom.

You want it a little more
age-appropriate.

You want to keep bright colors
but tone down the pink.

A teepee would be cool. Hmm.

Maybe some beanbag chairs.

Hey, hi, girls.
Sorry to interrupt.

Oh, hey, Dexter.
Hi, honey.

Alice, can I borrow
you for a second? Sure.

I was supposed to be at this
event, like, 15 minutes ago,

and then my nanny calls me and
tells me she's in brutal traffic.

She's not gonna be here
for another hour.

I wouldn't normally do this, but could
you please stay until she gets here?

Oh, well, i mean, it's
5:15, and I have to-

I know. I mean, obviously,
i would pay you for your time.

I don't know
what else to do.

You wouldn't have to
pay me. You're so sweet.

Thank you so much. Hey, g! Well, i-

Alice is gonna babysit for you until
idalia gets here, okay, honey? I love you.

And could you give her
a bath, just a quick one?

And then let Dexter out
before you go, okay? Thank you.

Okay.

Hello?
- When were you gonna tell me

that three strangers
were living in your house?

I'm sorry. I know.
I should have.

I mean, are you
airbnb-ing the house?

What? No, of course not.
- So where did you meet them?

I met them at a-
you know what? Look.

It's really not
that big of a deal.

They're gonna stay in
the guesthouse for a few days.

It was actually
my mother's idea.

Isabel told me that one of them
drove her to her guitar class.

I don't want your houseguests

hanging out
with the girls, okay?

I feel weird enough
about not being there.

Well, then why don't you
come here?

You don't think
I'm not dying to see them?

But i-i just can't right now.

There's this new guy
I'm tryin' to sign,

and his concert's
this weekend in Miami.

He's supposed to be
the next Sam Smith.

Really. Yeah. But
I'll come out soon though.

I promise.

Don't shake your head.

I wasn't.

I gotta go, Austen.

You'll get here
when you get here. See you.

Hey, you're home.
- Hi, mom.

Hey. I'm home
and I'm starving.

It smells so good in here.

When you were working, i thought
I'd make dinner, if that's cool.

Yeah. That's cool.
- Never thought of that.

I think that's
absolutely brilliant.

Mm-hmm. Hola. Hey.

Isabel, I think someone
needs a marg.

Uh-oh.

Thank you.
Now please unlearn that.

Hey, guys, dinner's ready.
Let's do this.

Shall we take the plates
outside? Mm-hmm? Mm-hmm.

What's outside?
- You'll see.

Come on.
- Where are we going?

I can't tell you.

I feel like I know you
from somewhere.

Oh? Well, I just moved here.

Where from?

Wow.

Hey.
Hey.

Can I help?
Sure.

Thank you for tonight,
Harry.

Are you kidding? I
should be thanking you.

No, seriously.
I, um-

my kids haven't seen that many of my
dad's movies. So it was really special.

Well, they are so cool,
by the way.

Job well done.
Thanks.

Mm-hmm. They're really
taking to you guys.

I think they're happy to have
some male energy around here.

It is very pink
in this house.

You seem to have aced
the single parent thing though.

Really aced it. I mean, yeah. Look,
I assume it's not as easy as it looks.

Well, you have an "I've
got this" thing about you,

and it's super impressive.

And personally,
i th-

look, I think
it's pretty brave

what you did,
starting over.

I don't know your ex,
but, uh,

he must be some kind of maniac to
have let you slip through his hands.

Where does this go?

Uh, it goes over there.

You know this cabinet
is broken, right?

Okay.
You gotta stop blushing.

Your face is too cute when
you blush. I can't handle it.

You got a screwdriver?

Thanks.

That cabinet has been broken
for so long. You have no idea.

Anything else
i can do for you?

Got anything from Ikea
i can assemble or...

I thought
we agreed not to.

I know. I know.

But I fixed your cabinet.

Hey, you know
I'm 40, right?

Uh, yeah, I knew that.
Like ballpark.

Okay, good, and, uh,

I didn't know if you'd ever gone
out with somebody my age who has...

Two kids.

And the girls come in at 6:30
in the morning sometimes,

so you can't be in
there then. That's fine.

Then sometimes they come in
in the middle of the night.

So you can't be in there
then either. Not a problem.

And also-
mm-hmm.

Alice?
Yeah?

You're makin' me nervous.

You don't seem nervous.

I don't wanna fight
with you.

Thank you so much for coming out
on Saturday. I appreciate that.

I'm heading to Shanghai tomorrow.
I'm glad we could get this goin'.

Can I get you
anything else?

No, thanks, Maya.
This looks fantastic.

Okay, great. Enjoy. Thanks. Thank you.

So I'm not gonna pull
any punches here.

I get it.
I'm the horror guy.

That's all basically
anybody ever sends me.

So when wca sent me your short

and nobody died in it or turned
into a zombie or something,

I thought, "all right.
This is fantastic."

Thank you.
We're glad you liked it.

But if I'm gonna go out
of my wheelhouse,

there are basically
three kinds of movies

that I'm interested
in producing.

Female-centric comedies. -
George writes women really well.

My love interest is a great part. Yeah.

I wouldn't exactly say it's
a female-centric comedy, but-

I totally agree.
Okay, forget women.

Here's something else
that might work for you.

What about
a found-footage love story?

You know?
No one's ever done that before.

You mean, like somebody found
footage of Sam and Jane's love story?

I mean,
why would they have been-

filming themselves. Filming, exactly.

I have no idea.
You know, just a thought.

All right,
the last thing I'm into...

An awards movie. You know?

Like a really-
like a good movie.

Like they used to make. We would
love to make a really good movie.

Yes.
- Yeah?

Yeah.
- Beautiful.

Beautiful. All right, that's what we're
gonna do. We're gonna make a great movie.

So where are we on the script?

I'm about halfway through. I think
it's coming along really well.

Good, good, okay. I watched
the short again last night.

I made some really great notes.
- Hmm?

Oh. I'm sorry, guys.

I gotta take this. One sec.
- No problem.

Yeah, go for j. Yes, I saw the
e-mail. - George, what are you doing?

Shut up, Teddy. I have to.
- Stop it.

"Try setting
in the south somewhere.

More American sniper"?

It takes place in Brooklyn.

Does it say that?
- It does say that.

He's gonna walk back.
- "Add dance sequence."

"Channing", question mark.
That's what it says.

I gotta go.
George-

do you believe it says that?

I'm so sorry about that, guys.
Just a few quick thoughts here.

You okay?

He had interesting things
to say, George. Like?

Like he wants to help us get our movie
made. That was incredibly interesting.

He was a parody
of a movie producer.

He did say some crazy shit.
What is wrong with you both?

He's a big deal,
and he believes in us.

That actually makes me
like us less.

Let's just continue the conversation,
okay? It was a first meeting.

George? Hey.
Would you look at me? George?

We're on
the same team, okay?

We can keep talking to him,

but we're not setting it in the
south, where none of us have ever been.

Fine, I agree. That's not a thing.
- What are you doing?

I've never been
in the pacific.

Okay, you're
just gonna...

I'm goin' in.

You know these things
take forever to happen, right?

I'm gonna keep writing it the
way we always wanted it to be.

Between us, I kinda took another
little job in the meantime.

I'm just doing it in my
spare time. Seriously?

Yeah. Somethin' came
my way from wca. Guys!

No kidding. What's the job? Come in!

Don't tell Harry. I won't. What is it?

If he found out, he'd make it about him.
- Just tell me already.

It's a rewrite of a thriller.

Anyway, it pays well, and it's good
to have a backup plan, you know?

What if being three boy wonders
doesn't work out?

Harry has this vision
of the three of us

lined up in tan suits
at cannes.

Meanwhile, for once, I'd
like to be able to make money.

Well, just warn me before you tell
him so I can leave the country.

At some point you're gonna need to
learn to be less of a little brother.

I don't have the same shit
with him that you do.

You support him
sleeping with Alice then.

Can I not be the odd man out because
I am the only one not pining for Alice?

Okay, come on.
We're not goin' there.

All I'm sayin' is
"iceberg ahead."

'Cause when he
changes his mind about her,

or she gets tired
of his shit-

all I'm sayin' is we need to start
lookin' for another place to live.

Which I'll be able to pay
for now because of my job.

I don't want to
leave Alice's.

I like being
with her family.

We're gonna have to leave
eventually.

Well, eventually
ain't today, my bro.

Attica!

I'm glad you do.

I mean, I just-
i don't know.

I think the dialogue needs a bit of
- yeah, well, you wrote it.

And exhale. Let it go.
Ooh.

Wonderful.

Hold on. I don't think
we should interrupt.

Yeah.

Okay.

Namaste. I'm Teddy.
Hi.

Hi.

No, I'm just kidding.

No, no, I'm doing it-

tell me about the other
guys. What are they like?

Okay. Well, Teddy used to work
at the genius bar,

so he's been helping me with
my website, which is awesome.

He's adorable.

And George
has really taken to Isabel.

He encouraged her to submit
a play to a school contest,

which has been amazing for her.

Yeah, hold on a minute.

I think you're telling me

that you have
free live-in childcare,

full-time tech support,
and sex?

I can't complain.

Yeah, and I don't-

I think you should bring Harry
to my dinner party tomorrow.

What? No, no.

It'd be good to take him
for a spin in the real world,

where the lights aren't so dim
and the sheets aren't so soft.

Okay, well, we are not there
yet. That feels like a lot.

Why is it a lot? Seems like the perfect
chance to show off your new boyfriend.

He's not my boyfriend.

What is he then?

I don't know. He's young, and
I might feel too self-conscious.

All the single guys
we know date women that age.

They're not self-conscious.
That's true.

Come on. Bring him.

Okay. Maybe.

Maybe.

This is
just gonna take a second.

Why are the gates open?

Hmm.

Hey, uh,
is Zoey here?

Uh, she'll be back soon.
Can I help you?

I just have these pillows
for the playroom.

Oh, okay, i can take it. Uh, and you're?

Oh, uh, I'm sort of
her decorator.

Really?
Yeah.

I'm sort of
her decorator.

Oh, right.

She said there was someone she kind
of had creative differences with.

Yeah. I quit,
if that's what you mean.

But she begged me
to come back.

I mean, she made me an
offer i couldn't refuse.

Sorry. I didn't know
that she hired someone else.

She said
she was desperate.

"Desperate"? What did she
say when you called her?

She was talking a million miles a minute,
like she'd had one too many green juices.

She said, "this other woman
made her feel more comfortable

because she'd worked with her
for years."

Then she said, "I'll call you back in two
secs", but she never called me back.

Basically, I've been doing all
this ridiculous work for nothing.

I mean, I organized
this woman's jeans, Teddy.

Whoa.
What are you taking?

It's for anxiety,
you know.

I just take a half of a half,
and never during the day.

That's a large half.

I should have quit
before it came to this.

Yeah,
that sounds great.

Alice, everything you told me about this woman
sounds awful, but you gotta check yourself.

Everything's gonna be okay.
- Promise?

I do. I mean, look at us.
How did we end up here with you?

I think things do
actually work out for a reason.

And just forget about Zoey.

This means it's time to move on, which is
gonna be easy because your website's live-

what?
- And your pinterest is up,

and it's all linked
to your Facebook and instagram.

My website is live? Oh,
yeah. Check it out, buddy.

Oh, my god.
Teddy, this is amazing!

Ah. Thank you.

That was Justin.
Yeah?

He thinks he might have found
someone to finance our movie.

No way! That's amazing! Yeah.

We're gonna get drinks tomorrow
to talk about it. Wow. Oh, wait.

Does that mean
you're busy tomorrow night?

Yeah, but just for a little.
Did you have something in mind?

I mean, I did, actually.

Tracy's having
this little dinner thing,

and if you were up for it, i
thought maybe you would come with me?

I'd love to do that.
Really?

I've been wanting to do something
with you outside the house.

I mean, I love what we've
been doing inside the house,

but, yes,
let's be on a date.

Okay.
Okay.

I'll have to meet you
after the drinks.

Sure. No problem.
What should I wear?

It's not, like,
dressy, is it?

No.
He'll have one more.

I knew that
she was taking my magazines.

We're gettin' along
really well.

You doing okay?

Yeah, yeah.

What are you guys talking about?

Can I come in?

Alice, I am so sorry
about last night.

The drinks, they went late. And
Justin, he invited all these people.

And the guy wouldn't shut up.

And I'm pretty sure he's getting us
the money, so I couldn't ditch him.

I think that's-
i think that is straight.

Oh, you couldn't ditch him,
but you could ditch me.

No, i- i- didn't know what
else to do. I got caught up and-

you know what the truth is?
I don't care what happened.

I know how it made me feel, and
I don't wanna feel like that.

Okay, well, please don't let one stupid
night get in the way of what's happening here.

What is happening here?

I don't think either of us
know the answer to that.

Okay, 'cause you came to me and
you said we shouldn't get involved.

And then you showed up
and you fixed my cabinet door,

and-and-and then you
kiss me.

And-

whatever.
I allowed that to happen.

But at some point I have
to start knowing better.

And that point is now.

You're
a 27-year-old kid, Harry.

And it's exciting,
and you're fantastic,

and you're on the cusp
of being a really great guy.

But 27-year-olds
just screw up.

They just do.

I know 'cause
i used to be one.

But the last thing
that I need right now

is to be sitting
at some party in a dress

waiting for someone or something
that isn't gonna show up for me.

So whatever this is or was,

it's just gotta end.

Okay?

I know this because-

because I know this.

Harry, you said you
were gonna play with us.

Yeah, okay. One second,
champ. One second.

Okay.

Okay. Okay. Okay, okay.

I screwed up. I was wrong.
I wasn't thinking.

Can I make it up
to you tonight, please?

Uh, no. Actually,
I'm going out tonight.

You- where?

I have a date.

You have-

why wouldn't I?

Miss Avery e-mailed me.
They picked my play!

I knew it.
I didn't.

This is major. Congrats.

Can I ask you a beyond
huge enormous favor?

Oh, and you can say no.

Oh, sorry. Am I
interrupting you working?

Oh, is it that other job?

Yeah, but who cares? What's up?
You can ask me anything.

Will you go up onstage
with me, at the play?

Onstage?

No, not like
in the play or anything.

Just off to the side. You can
see the whole thing from there.

I asked miss Avery,
and she said it was fine.

I told her it's like having an
emotional support dog, only human.

Anyways,

just in case I feel nervous or
like I'm gonna pass out or anything.

Just seeing you there would make
- hey, iz.

It would be a great honor.
I'll be there.

Yeah, so they
never found my brother.

So naturally,
i don't do boats.

But I gotta let that go.

What do you do? Because
kori wasn't exactly sure.

I used to work
for a developer.

Basically, we would just
tear down things you love

and put up things
you hate.

Are you gonna drink that?
No. You can have it.

Yeah, so... oh, Alice.

Have you seen
that Ted talk by any chance

on the science of happiness? Mm-mmm.

I think you'd really like
it. Is it that obvious?

No, that's not
what I'm saying.

It's just-
it just really touched me.

And about eight months ago,
i quit my job.

Oh, yeah?
Yeah. Just like that.

I had
a Jerry Maguire moment.

Oh, my god,
i love Jerry Maguire.

Yeah, I moved to Bali and
lived there for a few months

until I came down with malaria
and had to come back here.

And I'm trying to get
my old job back.

I think it was Thomas
browne- sir Thomas browne-

who said, "i am
the richest man alive.

I have that in me which"
- oh, my god.

I'm okay.

My arch Nemesis is here.

Why do you have
an arch Nemesis?

She's standing next to
the Sarah, plain and tall girl.

She looks
all rich and depressed.

I'm gonna go talk to her, Nate.
Oh, Alice, I don't think you should.

I'm gonna do it.
Alice, don't do that.

Here I go.
Alice.

They- okay.

Hi, Alice. My gosh.
- Zoey, hi.

What are you doing here?
- Oh, I'm on a date.

With a man.

Great.

Um, I don't think you've
met my husband, rob.

This is Alice.
Okay.

She's been sort of helping
out around the house.

Nice to meet you, rob.
I'm your wife's bitch.

I don't know
if I would call it that.

Really? Would you say
you're a nice person to me,

or would you say you're nicer
to maybe the labrapoodle?

It's a labradoodle.

Whatever.

Okay.

What are you doing with
your face? Are you unwell?

I think it's Dexter.
- Okay, that is not nice, Alice.

He's a rescue, and I find
that really offensive.

You've had a little bit
too much to drink

and you're sort of
embarrassing yourself.

I'm embarrassing myself?
Yes.

Well, that's refreshing. Because
normally that's your department.

Am I right, Bob?
- Alice, let's just call this quits,

and I will call you
in the morning.

Hey, babe, I quits, okay? Because you
cheated on me with the fancy stylish woman.

And on top of that,
you're a deeply dark individual.

So... we done.

Great.

We... done.

Thank you.
Appreciate it.

Brutal.

Ah, boy.

So, wanna tell me
what happened?

Well, I drank my date
under the table.

And I was so rude.

And then I saw Zoey bell in
her kimono and her cute husband,

and I went
temporarily insane.

Jesus.

I hope you quit at least. Oh, yes.

That I made very clear.

Well, dare I ask why you're
feeling so pugnacious this evening?

All signs point
to the lead singer of your band.

Ah. I was afraid
of that.

You know, he tends to have
this effect on people.

Thing you gotta realize about
Harry, and I say this out of love,

is he doesn't do
the right thing enough.

Doesn't know how.

Trust me.

Do you know what the difference
is between men and women?

Men just-
they can just do things.

And women have to think
about the consequences

and the feelings
and the pros and cons.

And we make lists.

And men just act.

They just do.

Not you though, George.

You're one of the good ones.

Thank you, Alice.

You're like a woman.

Oh, my god.
Tell me you see him too.

Austen, what are
you doing here?

Well, I've been
calling you for hours.

Where have you been?
Where are the kids?

They're at my mom's.
But wait.

I was just-

I know I just
asked you this, but...

What are you doing here?
- Oh, god, Alice.

Oh. I don't know. I don't know.
I've been going out of my head.

I just can't think straight.
Is that one of them?

Hello.

Hi. Okay.

Hey there.

George appleton.
Hi.

Big fan of
your family, yeah.

Mm-hmm. - Okay, I'm
gonna let you two, uh-

'cause I gotta- I'm
just gonna- yeah, okay.

Oh, it feels so good
to be here.

Oh, god.

You did such an incredible
job with the house.

It totally feels like you now. Thanks.

I'm really impressed.

God, you remember us sittin' in here
when you brought me to meet your dad?

Yeah,
a million years ago.

And you look
different too.

I do? Yeah. Relaxed or something.

You look fantastic, al.

Well, you're catching me on
a really stellar roll tonight.

I've had quite a
- you know I had to come here, right?

You get that. I mean, there are three
strange guys living with my family.

And you stopped calling me
back all of a sudden, you know?

Girls are not
facetiming me anymore.

Where do you keep your forks?
- In the drawer.

So you just
showed up unannounced?

Don't you think you
should have called first

and then told me
that you were coming

so I could have at least
prepared, told the girls?

I would have called. Or is this
just what worked for you, Austen?

I would have called, but I was afraid you
were gonna tell me that I couldn't come.

I always tell you to come.

You know,
when you left...

I finally felt like I wasn't
lettin' anyone down anymore.

And that was good,
for a minute.

But then I realized

that the best part
of my life

had just moved away
across the country.

And there I was,
alone in our old place.

There was
no more laughter.

No meals together.

No more monkeys
jumping on the bed.

And I miss our family.

So I bought
a ticket to la,

and I left
within the hour

because I wanted
to say this to your face.

To your beautiful face.

Let's fix this.

Let's not give up.

What's he doing just
showing up out of nowhere?

We should go in there. She needs us.

Oh, really? You're gonna go in there.

You're gonna say, "I'm
the captain now", huh?

Look. They're sitting
so close together.

Guys, enough, okay? He's
the father of her children.

She's moved on. She
doesn't need him anymore.

George, is he good-looking?
I can't tell from here.

What's his vibe?
Is it loser-y?

I don't know. He's got like
a classic Clark gable thing.

There's like a little
bit of Sean penn in there.

Like he could jump ya at any
moment. You know what I mean?

Clark gable meets Sean
penn? I'm going inside.

Harry, come on, man. The last thing she
needs. How do you know what she needs?

Oh, my god.
She's taking him to the guest room.

He's staying.

Well, thank you
for putting me up.

I'm a little bit drunk. I'll
probably regret it in the morning.

I'm not that drunk.

Good night, Austen.

Well, I meant what I said, al.

Will you just think about it?

Mmm.

Good morning.

Oh, hi.

Please, take a seat.

Harry.

Austen.

Why is he staying
with us?

What am I supposed to do,
ask him to stay in a hotel?

Why is this guy in la? I can
think of three really good reasons.

Seems pretty selfish to just show up like this.
- Well, meet Austen.

Alice, please stop
avoiding me.

Can we just-
i don't know- talk?

Whoa.
- Girls. Girls.

Guess what.
- What?

Daddy!

Good morning!

Daddy!
Oh!

I'm so happy to see you guys.
- -I can't believe you're here!

Rosie, you're so tall.

Look at you.
You're like a supermodel.

Iz, look at
- oh, my goodness. Loving those sneakers.

When did you get here?

Late last night. We thought
we'd surprise you this morning.

Come on.
- Good to see you, lil.

Yeah. Hi.
Mwah. Mwah.

Looking fetching as usual.
Me? You are nuts.

Look, I have to change for my spinning
class, so I'm going to get going.

Ally, I'll talk to you later, okay?
- Yep.

Still cute.

Hmm.

Okay, let's eat.

Okay, okay, but then we
were walking back from dinner

on this
beautiful moonlit night

through this
tiny little village

just outside
Saint-r�my-de-provence.

And we took one wrong turn.
- Oh.

And suddenly out of nowhere- -
oh, my god, i forgot about this.

This strange
little woman appeared.

Yes.

She pushes me in the chest.
She grabbed your mother's bag.

And your mother just immediately,
without a second thought,

sprints after her,

leaps into the air
and tackles her to the ground.

Oh, my god.
- That's funny, mommy.

I'm pretty sure there was no
leaping, and I didn't tackle her.

So you weren't
both on the ground?

Yes, but
- your mother was incredible. You should have seen her.

She was just- just beyond.

She was
wildly impressive.

I don't know
about that, but...

So, iz, did you tell your
daddy about your play?

She did.

She did.
It's very exciting.

I'm not surprised, because
she's always been a great writer.

Will you stay for it, daddy?

When is it again?
- Next Friday.

Yeah.
- Ah.

Well, I'm not sure
if I can stay that long.

But if I can, I will.
I'm desperate to be there.

You know, George has been really
very helpful with the play.

Did I tell you
the guys are filmmakers?

Yeah, yeah. Heard that.

God, I have no idea
how you guys do it.

It takes such discipline.

And I guess
at the end of the day,

it's totally down
to luck, isn't it?

If it turns
into anything, right?

Yeah. Luck and talent.

Copy that.

Lot of luck.

Hey, I had an idea. Why don't
we go for dinner tonight?

Oh yeah!
- Yeah!

Sunday night dinner like we used
to. That would be fun, right?

You could show me your new favorite place.
- Yeah, can we, mommy? Please.

Yeah, we could go early,
be back by 8:00.

Please.
Okay, sure.

Yay!

Just a sec!

Hi.
Hey.

I thought I'd check in. I
know it's none of my business.

I just wanted to make sure
that you're okay. Yeah. Come in.

No, I'm completely fine.

I mean, on the one hand,
Austen is saying things to me

that I've wanted to hear
for god knows how long.

And on the other hand, he's
the actual king of manipulation.

Hey, can I come in for a second? Yeah.

Hey.

Did not know
you were in here.

I hope this
isn't out of line, but-

you look really nice, by the way.
- You do.

Thanks.
- Just really worried about the girls, you know?

I have experience
with guys like this,

and their dad
shows up out of nowhere,

and he's acting like he's father
of the year when we know he isn't.

He's gonna move back to New
York. What happens to iz-

Alice, I've
gotta talk to you.

Oh, my god.

Can it wait?
I'm a little bit busy.

Uh, no, it can't.

I feel like everything is out of
sorts between us. Wow. You look great.

And smell great.
Can I come in?

Do you have
an advil? I-

didn't realize
i had an audience.

We're just gonna have
to talk about this later-

what, I didn't make the cut
for the pre-party?

No, there is
nothing going on.

There's never been
so many people in this room.

We're gonna be late.

You guys,
i will talk to you later.

It's gonna be good.

Bye.

Good night.

Okay.

Night, kids.

I don't like him.
Mm-mmm.

It's way past
Rosie's bedtime.

Should we call and make
sure that everything's okay?

I'm shocked
she married that guy.

She knows his bracelets are a problem.
- I don't know.

I could see him having a certain
appeal when they were younger.

The accent's cool.

Hey, we were just
starting to-

shh.
- Oh. Sorry.

Did you guys have
a good night?

Yeah. Nothin' special.
Just ate some lasagna.

What was left of it.

How was your dinner?
- The girls had a great time.

And you?

I actually
had fun too.

Um, well, we were gonna
have a nightcap.

You wanna come over
to our place?

I'm exhausted.
I'm gonna hit the hay.

Night, guys.

Yeah, good night.
- Night.

It's not true. She never
falls asleep before midnight.

Okay, thank you.

We did not need
to know that.

Night-night.
I'll see you in the morning.

I love you, daddy.

Oh, I love you too,
my beautiful girl.

Sleep well.

"He reaches for the painting.

Floats in slow motion
through the air."

Georgie.
Hey.

Great news.

The finance guy is flying in
to meet with us next Friday.

We're meeting him
at sunset tower,

and then we'll go from there
to see Isabel's show.

Perfect. Hey, actually,
hold on a sec.

Relax. I just wanna show you an
article I read about this guy.

"The painting floats
in slow motion."

What is this? What are you
working on? Okay, actually, I was-

you're writing
something else?

Let me explain.
Uh, yes.

How could you do that?

How could you do it? We're
almost done with our script.

You're working on something
else at the same time?

Okay, yes, but look,
you've decided, right,

that we're
two halves of this whole,

and I've been thinking that maybe I
could be a whole on my own at some point.

And our agents agree. Oh,
okay. Right. Right. Okay.

So you're the talent.

I'm just the one who got us our
financing, who directed our movie,

who submitted us to the
festival, who got us to la.

You know that's not what I'm
saying. And then you go rogue

and you get another job
without telling me.

Shit, George.
You know-

this has not stopped me from working
on our movie, not even one bit.

And excuse me if I wanna
make some goddamn money

and get the hell out of the mess that
you've created in this house, by the way.

Did you not even realize?
You don't even know?

Did you think you could just have
sex with her and play with her kids

and everything would
turn out fine? Don't.

You know what? Leave your
brain to science, Harry,

'cause it's truly one in
a mil. You know what? No.

I'm not
letting you do this.

I'm not, man.

You're a little
in love with Alice,

and you're mad at me
because of it.

Wow.

You and I have been
down this road before.

Okay, I am not in love
with her, okay?

I just love a lot of things about
her, like her face and her personality.

Hey.

What up, guys?

What is that? What is
that? What are you holding?

What? Oh, these.
They're audition pages.

I'm actually
testing for a pilot,

which I think
is a good thing.

That's terrific, Teddy.

You're both taking other jobs?
Well, George already took his.

Why can't you be happy for him? Don't
turn this around on me and Teddy.

Why didn't you
tell me?

I haven't gotten it yet, and
we don't have a finished script.

So why can't I go
on auditions?

You know what? Good luck
to the both of you.

Yeah, okay, well, just call
me after the show, all right?

Yeah, I'll still be up. Okay.

Okay, bye.

Hey, man.

Can I join you?

Everything cool,
brother?

I saw Harry take off.

Seemed pretty heated.

I'm sorry, but I don't
wanna get into it.

It's all good. You don't
have to worry about it.

Well, I wouldn't say
that. This is my house.

With my kids, my wife.

If there's a problem, i have
a right to know about it.

With all due respect, Austen, i don't
know if Alice would call this your house,

and she definitely wouldn't
call herself your wife.

They are my kids though, right? Hmm.

Is that one okay
with you?

What exactly is it
that you're doing here?

Yeah, it's
a complicated situation.

At your age, I couldn't
have understood it either.

Try me.

Well, sometimes...

You need a bit of space
from the things you love

in order for you
to realize

just how much
you really need them.

Seriously? That sort of thing just
does not apply to your wife and kids.

What do you
want from me, man?

I mean, you're gonna hate me
regardless of what I say.

But if Alice and i are gonna try
and work through our problems,

which I think it's
pretty clear we are,

then this game of house you're
all playing is gonna have to end.

And you think
that's what Alice wants?

Alice doesn't know
what she wants.

Ow!

What the hell
was that for?

It was for Alice!

You do not wanna do this. I am
a trained athlete. I can box.

Okay, all right,
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

You wanna go for it, pal?
You wanna go?

Come on. Let's go. Let's go! Hey. Hey.

Did your stupid hipster
brother sleep with my wife, huh?

Come on. Man up
and tell me. Tell me!

We're better off
without you.

We?
Yeah.

What are you even saying?

Oh, my god.
- Aah!

What is going on?

He-he started it.

Teddy, what the hell?

Okay, hold on.
- Okay, let's all just chill out for a second.

He's a liability, okay?
There are kids in this house.

Come on, Alice.
This is insane.

This is too much for me. I didn't
sign up for this, all of this.

I agree.
I think he needs to leave.

I think you guys need to
find somewhere else to stay

while we get our lives
back on track.

Wait.

Alice.

I'm sorry, guys.

You did
the right thing, al.

He did quite
a number on you.

Ta-da.

Alice, look at me
for a second.

Oh, god,
I've missed you so much.

I had no idea
how to be alone.

Austen, what are we doing?

Well, our relationship is
totally blurry. You know that.

I know it is.

And once and for all, i
think we need to clear it up.

I think we should get back to
- i want a divorce.

I'm-I'm not following.

I want a divorce.

Like I legally don't
wanna be married anymore.

No, I know
what divorce means.

I thought we weren't ready
to make such a-

you're ready.
I am.

I really am.

Right.

Right.

Oh, god. So I'm the idiot
who's dealt a winning hand

and still managed to lose.

I think maybe this
all worked out

the way it
was supposed to.

And I guess we both know that
if I'd seen a sliver of hope,

I would have tried
to weasel my way back in.

Ooh, I really hope
he's here. He has to be.

Justin is the only
other person he knows in la.

Oh, my hand's
killing me.

Can we come in?
We wanna talk.

Are you gonna be mean?
I'm not in the mood.

What happened to your face?
I beat the crap out of Austen.

Bullshit artist.
Come in.

Did Alice see you do it?

Yep.

And she kinda
kicked us out.

Seriously?
Yeah.

And what about Austen? He stayed? Yeah.

Oh.

You guys hungry?
There's some leftover nobu.

Harry, we came here to apologize.

Neither of us should have
hidden anything from you.

Is that a no to the nobu?

I'll have some. What's
nobu? It's just Sushi.

Okay, we were just afraid
that you were gonna think

that we were doubting you
or losing faith in the movie.

That's exactly what I think.
We're not bailing, man.

My other job
is basically done.

And if Teddy lands another part,
then we will work around it.

He's right. We're doing this, all
right? We're making this happen.

Oh. The nobu.

Here you are.

Is dad okay?

Yeah. Daddy is fine.

He just has
a little bruise.

And he's asleep now,
so he's gonna be okay.

I'm really sorry that
you guys had to see that.

Is he moving in with us?

Well, he's gonna live in la,
which is great,

but he's not
gonna live with us.

What about the guys?

Did they leave?
Mm-hmm.

For good?

I think so.

Does that mean we won't
ever see them again?

I mean, George was
gonna come to my play.

Yeah, yeah,
i know George, honey.

And trust me,
he will be there.

And I don't know
about you guys,

but I'm kinda looking forward to
it just being the three of us again.

Actually, I think
that sounds good.

I could use
some peace and quiet.

Okay.

I love you.

Thank you.

"So what began as a day
like any other

ended as anything but.

The end."

Wonderful.

I love this part.
Yeah, so did I.

Hi.

Um, come in.

Is it okay? Yeah. Are
you kidding me? Come on.

I didn't call, but-
no, it's good.

We're still
in the moving-in phase, but...

Oh, yeah. Wow.
Yeah.

This place is great.
Uh-huh.

Oh, man.

Are the guys here?

Oh, no. They just went out for a
bit. They'll be back any minute.

Look, this should be me
showing up at your door.

But, uh, I don't know. With
Austen there, i- i just-

oh, he's- he's gone.

He went back to New York?

No, he's here in la,
just not with me.

We are
officially done, so...

Wow. Wow.

Well, a-plus decision.

Yeah.

Um...

Okay.

Alice, like, I should've-

I should've said this before
in a realer way at least.

But i- I'm-I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry for standing you up
that night.

And I think
- like, I've relived it, like, a thousand times in my head.

And I just- I can't-
i can't wrap my mind around-

what kind of a person
would do that to you?

Let alone it was me.

It was one of the top-five
worst decisions i have ever made.

And I have made some
- some pretty questionable decisions in my time.

Look, bottom line, you deserve
much, much better than me.

And I don't mean that
like- like most guys mean it,

which is that they
don't mean it at all.

I actually do.
I- I really do.

You know, before I met you,

I was probably
more alone and terrified

than I'd ever been
in my entire life.

And through that
crazy turn of events...

You made that
fade away.

And I'll always
be grateful for that.

And since you guys
have been gone,

I've been really trying
to get my life in order.

But it's made me
realize I just-

I really miss you guys.

Oh, my god, we miss you so much. Really?

We talk about it all the time.
I'm so glad to hear you say that.

Surprise!

Hey!

Hi!
Oh, my god! Alice!

Hey!
Hey!

Hi, Alice.

Oh, you got flowers?

They always looked
so good at your house,

I thought we'd get
some for ours.

Let me help you.
Yeah, thank you.

Okay, where's the kitchen?

It's over here.
How's iz?

We've been texting a bit. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.
She told me.

She's so hyped up
for tomorrow.

Did she tell you
she started meditating?

No. But I love that.
Yeah.

Oh, let me put those
in a vase for you.

Uh, do you have a vase?

Uh-
uh-

we do not.
Okay.

We do not have a vase.

Something to buy you
as a housewarming gift.

All right, my guys.
My guys.

Justin.
Hey, buddy.

Listen, before we go in
there, whatever happens,

we're still gonna make
a great movie together.

Okay? Not something you
watch on your smartphone

and forget about
before it's even over.

Because we got the brains, we
got the heart, we got the nerve.

Yeah?
Yeah.

Yeah. All right, come
on. It's gonna be good.

It's gonna be good.

Yeah, I knew you'd
come around on me.

Hey.

Yeah, yeah, we're here.

Sure. Yeah, no problem.
He's running a bit late.

All right, showtime.

Hey, mom.
Hi.

Hey.
- Hey.

Hi, baby. How was your
sleepover at daddy's?

It was so fun.
We had pancakes for dinner.

They'll be here.

Okay, fellas, here's the thing.

I love your script.

I totally get
what you're going for.

But maybe we could
make it even... bigger.

Okay, sure. How so?

Maybe- I don't know-
it could be sexier.

You know, add some
more excitement, more action.

Maybe the Sam character
has to assemble a group of guys

from various locations,

and then they have
to pull off a big heist.

So basically ocean's eleven.

Yes, love it. Great.

Young ocean's. Exactly.

Sam isn't really
big-time like that.

He's just doing it
to get by, you know.

Right. Right.
- I know. That's why we could dial that up.

And then we get somebody
really great to play Sam,

like that kid
from hunger games?

Well, actually,
we got Teddy attached.

Remember? I told you about that. Oh.

He's fantastic.
- Right, yeah, yeah.

You're Teddy.
- Yeah.

Yeah, we'd definitely find
something for you to play.

Look, Justin, I trust you.
You know that.

Yeah.
- And I think that you guys are super talented.

My only concern
is that it's too small.

Or- I don't know- cute. Is
that the right word? - No.

We gotta run.
- Hey, wait, guys.

We appreciate you taking the
time. We really, really do.

But truthfully, we have
an 11-year-old's play to attend.

So if your answer is "no",
which it seems to be,

since you've missed pretty much
every lovely detail in the script,

well, this isn't really gonna
make much of a difference.

But I'm gonna say it anyway.
I think you're making a mistake.

Teddy is one of the most
talented actors of our generation.

And George,
he understands people,

the way we think and why we do
the unexplainable things we do.

Film is the great love
of our lives,

and if you take
a chance on us,

there is like an 80% chance
that we will not let you down.

Now, Warren, quick question.

Do you happen to have
a car downstairs?

You were amazing. Amazing!

Har. You sure
you're okay with this?

Yes. There will be another guy.
Do I look worried?

Just breathe. Just breathe. You
can do this. You can do this.

Let's go.

Sorry. The doors are closed.
- What are you- what?

Once the show begins, no one is
admitted. Those are the rules.

You're joking, right? It's a
fifth-grade play, not Hamilton.

I am under strict orders
to close the doors at 6:00,

and it is now 6:15, so...

I actually need
to get backstage.

There's a very, very special kid
who will be totally devastated-

you know what? This is
not my problem. Whoa!

Sorry, bud!
- Oh!

Maybe he should be
an action star.

Go.

Okay,
you're gonna be great.

And now, three plus three,
by Isabel blume.

Teddy, Teddy.

There she is.

Shoot! Come on.

Hey.
- Hi.

Excuse me. Excuse me.
Gotta get through.

What began-

sorry.

Come on, come on.

Are you George?
Yes.

Thank god.

Wait. Who are you?
I'm miss Avery.

You're miss Avery?
Yeah.

And you're George?
Yeah.

Come on.

She can see you from here.

What began-

Isabel.

Isabel.
Isabel.

You got this.

What began as a day like any
other ended as anything but.

There must have been something pretty
extraordinary in the air that day,

even though, as always,

it was 72 degrees and sunny
in my new hometown,

the weirdly, wonderful city
of Los Angeles,

which, as it turns out,
isn't much of a city at all.

Okay,
but, you guys, admit it.

It was a hit, right? I mean,
can you call a school play a hit?

Because it definitely was.

Definitely.
- It was a smash.

You got a standing "o."

There were moms in the
audience who were crying.

They were crying.
- Moms were crying? I was sobbing.

And that line
about being a kid

and growing up in New York-
i mean, come on.

Oh. "Her bedtime was 8:30
in the city that never sleeps."

That's the one.
- Great.

I liked the kid
who played dad.

What?

Was it not about us?

It was about us, right?
