For those continuing with the second part of this course next semester, we will
explore the development and evolution of social customs.
For example, the first recorded marriage contract can be traced back 4,000 years.
Those records were found primarily in Mesopotamia and seem to have only existed
as ways of preserving power and furthering lineages.
I'd like to think times have changed since then.
It wasn't until the Enlightenment that the notion
of marrying for love became widely accepted.
Alright, who forgot to turn their cell phone off before the last class?
I think it's coming from outside.
Oh, that's so weird.
Is that Professor Larson?
What?
I will be right back.
What is all of this?
Happy Anniversary!
Hold that thought.
So, six months ago today was our very first date.
Ever since the moment that you bumped into me and spilled my coffee everywhere,
I knew you were the one.
And I never understood the saying, when you know, you know.
Until I met you.
So?
Dr Stephanie Bishop, will you marry me?
Yes.
Yes?
Yes!
A million times yes!
That's a little loose.
It doesn't matter.
I love it.
And I love you.
Yeah, I love you too.
I love how you basically highlighted this entire article.
He makes a lot of good points.
You know, between his books and his TED talks, you're kind of a fanboy.
And I am very proud of it.
We're almost done.
We still have to swing by my apartment.
Hey, quick question.
Which color bathing suit conveys to your family how honored
I am to spend the summer with them at their vacation house?
And also how much I love you and I'm excited to marry you.
I'm not sure you can get all that from a bathing suit color.
I think green.
You know you have nothing to be nervous about.
I'm not nervous.
Okay, I'm a little nervous.
I met them one time for like five minutes in passing and
now I'm spending a significant amount of time with them.
And you are so close.
I just really want them to like me.
They will love you.
Because I love you.
Besides, after a few rounds of golf on the course with my dad, you will be best buds.
I've never played golf.
Like ever?
No.
Don't worry.
You will be fine.
Okay.
Maybe I can take a few lessons.
We don't leave for a few hours.
Ben, how many sweaters did you pack?
I like to layer.
Yes, but it's Palm Springs and we're going to be in flip flops most of the time.
And I was a boy scout.
I go prepared.
See, now it actually closes.
And you have room for other things like a magazine.
Some light reading by the pool.
You make fun, but James Quincy's article on emerging markets will make you rethink
everything you thought you knew about economics.
I'm sorry you got passed over for that job with Quincy.
I'm not.
If I got the teaching job at Oxford, I never would have met you.
Well, then I guess everything worked out the way it was supposed to.
It sure did.
Now I'm engaged to a almost tenured professor.
We're going to Palm Springs to spend time with the people you love most.
I love the sound of that.
Tenured professor.
You worked really hard, Ben.
I'm proud of you.
Life is good.
How's it fit?
It fits perfectly.
I'm sorry it was a little loose before, but I don't want
to ruin the surprise by asking you what size ring you were.
I thought I guessed right.
You were close.
I know you get superstitious about that kind of
stuff, so please, for me, do not read into it.
You mean how, like in 16th century Persia, if
the ring didn't fit, it was seen as a bad omen?
It might have crossed my mind for a moment, but
then I realized it's a myth and not at all real.
All the perks of dating an anthropology professor.
Engaged, too.
Hi, Dad.
Calling for an ETA?
Yes, yes.
Your mom wants to know how much to make for dinner.
Uh, we're going to leave here in a few hours, so we should be on time.
Are Tracy and Preston there yet?
Uh, no.
Their flight was delayed out of San Francisco.
Listen, Stephanie...
Yeah?
Um, drive safe.
We will.
Love you.
Love you, too.
Okay.
Did you tell her?
I was about to, but it didn't feel like the right moment.
There's a lot to spring on them, but the girls will understand.
I hope so.
They love this house and all the summers we've spent here.
It's hard telling them we're selling it.
I know.
But they know you're retiring and that we've always wanted to travel.
I know.
But it's big news.
We should tell them in person.
All right.
And somebody better go take the for sale sign off the lawn.
Right.
Good thinking.
So every summer, Dad would take a month off from the
clinic so that we could all be together at the house.
It was bishop family bonding time.
It's where I took my first steps, where I learned to swim, and the country
club hosts this super fun jamboree on the 4th of July.
This place sounds like more than just the house.
What?
I have an idea.
Okay.
What if... we get married at the vacation house on the 4th of July.
Fireworks and all.
Like this 4th of July.
In four weeks.
No.
Of course not this 4th of July.
Next summer.
We've got the time.
I love it.
You do?
Yeah.
If it's your dream to get married on the 4th of July
at your family vacation house, then it's mine too.
Wow.
This place is amazing.
I'm away from home.
I love it.
Wait till you see the backyard.
Here we are.
Oh!
There she is!
Hi, Mom!
Perfect timing.
And Ben.
Ben, we're so glad you're here.
Thank you.
Come on, everybody.
Follow me.
Are you okay?
What's going on?
Oh!
Yeah.
Oh my gosh.
I've never been here.
I'm so excited.
You too.
Come on.
Your dad's waiting.
Okay.
Hey, hey, hey.
Did you tell him already?
No.
Maybe one of my students posted on social media?
Maybe.
Honey.
Sweetheart.
They're here.
They just arrived.
Tracy Preston.
You made it.
I'm so excited.
Hey, guys.
Welcome to the desert.
Thank you.
Stephanie.
Ben.
So glad you're here.
Big news.
What's going on?
A soon-to-be wedding.
Wait.
Who told you that we're engaged?
You're engaged?
You and, uh... Ben.
Ben.
Right.
How can you be engaged?
Didn't you just start dating?
Is that not what this champagne is for?
I'm so confused.
No.
This champagne is because Preston and I are engaged.
Oh, no.
Congratulations.
Congratulations to you.
Can you believe it?
Oh, not a bit.
Congratulations, Preston.
Thank you.
And congratulations to you as well.
Thank you.
Stephanie and Ben are engaged.
So, how long have you two been together?
We've been dating again.
Six months, but we knew right away.
Six months.
Wow.
Fast.
And when did this happen?
A couple days ago.
What about you guys?
Last week.
Mr. Bishop, thank you so much for inviting me into your home.
Your house is beautiful.
Technically, Stephanie invited you.
I just didn't say no.
Mm-hmm.
Um, the staff let me see your ring.
And obviously, you are my maid of honor.
And obviously, you're mine.
And since it was always our favorite holiday, Preston and I decided to get
married right here at the house on the 4th of July.
Ah.
I was just telling Ben that I wanted to get married on the 4th of July.
No way.
Did you guys want this 4th of July?
No.
No.
Next year.
Okay, great.
Because Preston and I want to get married this summer.
Honey, that's only four weeks away.
I know it's fast, but Preston's grandma's getting
older, and he really wants her to be at the wedding.
The longer we wait, the harder it is for her to travel.
And I know how much it means for Tracy that we get married right here at the house.
Well, that works for us.
We can have our turn next year.
Ah, let's just see how everything pans out.
Tracy and Preston were together quite a long
time before even considering an engagement.
Dad.
I just don't want anyone rushing into anything.
A toast.
To us.
We're both engaged.
Yes.
Toast!
All right, let's give Ben the tour.
Ah, yes.
So, how was the drive out?
Enjoy!
They've been together six months.
Tracy wants to get married in four weeks.
Oh, boy.
The boy is right.
So, where do you want these?
Uh, you're two doors down from me.
And it has an amazing view.
I don't think your parents are very thrilled about the engagement.
I just weren't expecting it.
We'll come around.
I hope so.
I know you mentioned you were engaged before.
You think that's why they're hesitant?
No, I don't think that has anything to do with it.
It was a long time ago.
I think it's just that Tracy and Preston have been together for like ten years.
And they're not used to a relationship moving this quickly.
Okay.
Well, then I won't worry then.
Okay.
Good.
Morning!
Hi!
Morning!
Morning!
Welcome!
Please help yourselves.
Wow!
Waffles and pancakes.
You don't see that too often.
Well, I know it's silly, but it's a tradition.
When the girls were little, they couldn't decide between waffles and pancakes.
So, first breakfast of every summer, we have both.
You're in full planning mode, aren't you?
Just under four weeks is not a lot of time.
We've got to be smart and diligent about this.
Divide and conquer.
Lists are key.
Can you tell Tracy's a liar?
Oh, Ben, please help yourself.
Oh, shouldn't we wait for Preston and Robert?
Oh, no.
I'm sure they grabbed something at the club.
I told them to wait to see if you wanted to go,
but they didn't want to lose their tea time.
Trust me.
I do not blame them.
I do not know the first thing about golf.
Well, now that you and Stephanie are engaged, you'll have to learn.
No, he doesn't have to learn.
It is not mandatory.
So, what's first?
Mom and I are going to look at dresses today.
I already sent out the save-the-date email,
but I need you to order the invitations ASAP.
Oh, and look into the cake.
Frankie's?
Where else?
What's Frankie's?
It's a bakery we used to go to all the time when we were little.
I was thinking Laird.
Obviously.
With fresh strawberries.
Ooh, and blueberries and cream-filled, and then it's red, white, and blue.
And if we do that, we might as well make the whole cake.
And the whole wedding coordinate with those colors.
I mean, it is the Fourth of July.
And my dress will be white.
And mine will be blue.
And that works on two levels, because it will work with
the wedding colors, but also you can be my something blue.
And we can do red floral arrangements.
I love it.
There you go, honey.
You're going to need it to keep up with them.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
All right, so cake and invitations, that's not
too bad, seeing as Tracy's list was very long.
Easily doable.
The best part is we can use their list for our wedding.
Easy breezy.
Mm-hmm.
Good morning.
Good morning.
Can I help you?
I'm guessing you're one of the Bishop daughters.
Yes, I am Stephanie.
And this is my fiancé, Ben.
Nice to meet you.
That was the first time I introduced you as my fiancé.
I like it.
Me too.
Well, congratulations to you both.
Your parents have said nothing but great things about you and your sister.
Thank you.
Um, who are you?
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Where are my manners?
I'm Anna Kim, your parents' real estate broker.
Their what?
Broker for the house.
I couldn't wait to tell them.
We have our first offer.
My parents are selling the house?
We wanted to tell you last night, but then you both
announced you were engaged, and it took us by surprise.
I can't believe that you're selling this house.
Oh, honey, it was a really hard decision.
But with your dad about to retire, selling
this house means we could travel the world.
We got married so young.
And then I went straight to medical school.
And then you guys came along.
I loved every second of it.
But now we have the time.
I want you guys to have this opportunity.
You deserve it.
It's just going to be hard not to have this place.
How about a compromise?
Your dad and I put off selling the house for a year or two.
That way you could still get married here next summer.
The buyer that put in an offer wants the house by the end of the summer.
Well, we'll just have to decline the offer.
I highly advise against that.
I mean, it's well over the asking price.
And you know the saying, your first offer is always the best offer.
I don't know if this helps or not, but it is a smart time to sell.
Yeah.
I mean, with what you could save on property taxes
alone would do wonders for your retirement fund.
Spoken like a true economics professor.
He's right.
I don't want you guys to miss out on a good deal because of me.
Stephanie, would you really be okay not getting married here?
Yeah.
Ben and I will find somewhere else.
Definitely.
Might be a blessing in disguise.
That way you could take your time finding the perfect place.
Nothing wrong with a long engagement.
Well, this just means we'll have to make your wedding the best ever.
Because it'll be our final hurrah here.
So these are our more traditional ones.
Clean backgrounds.
I like that one.
Okay.
Stephanie.
Yeah?
What do you think?
Oh, um, it's nice.
It's just a little plain.
You okay?
We should pick one soon.
Tracy told me she has a print shop on standby for tonight.
Right.
I'm just a little distracted.
Sorry.
You know what?
Let me go grab the other binder.
There might be something more your taste in there.
One sec.
Thank you.
You still thinking about the house?
Minor aftershock, I think.
I just wasn't expecting it.
I completely get where your dad's coming from.
Although, with that being said, I didn't spend my childhood vacations here.
I mean, I get why they're selling it.
I guess I just always envisioned bringing home something.
My own kids here.
Our kids.
What do you think of these?
Ooh, I like this.
I mean, it's not really in our theme, but it is
the shade of purple that is my favorite color.
Really?
Oh, totally.
In middle school, I wore the same purple hoodie every day.
Drove my mom nuts.
That's funny.
Yeah, it took my fashion sense a little bit of time.
No, I mean, it's funny that I didn't know your favorite color.
Well, I guess it just never came up.
What's yours?
Orange.
Orange?
Yeah.
Yeah, I prefer the burnt tones.
I did not expect that.
That one.
This one.
Okay.
You know, you guys make a very cute couple.
Where are we off to now?
Off to Frankie's to get a cake, of course.
Stephanie!
Frankie.
It's been too long.
I know.
Last summer, I was in Antigua researching the indigenous people of the Arawak.
As one does.
Hey, I saw that your parents listed their house.
Yeah, they already have an offer.
Wow.
Oh, this is my fiancé, Tharn.
Fiancé?
Oh, nice meeting you, Ben.
Nice to meet you, too.
I got to tell you, it smells amazing in here.
Well, you have to have a sample.
Frankie used to spoil us with her samples when we were little.
Well, you and your sister were my favorite customers.
Now, these are our newest creation.
Okay.
Thanks.
Mmm.
What do you think?
My gosh, that's so good.
No wonder we're getting a cake from here.
Cake?
For your wedding?
No, for Tracy and Preston.
They got engaged at the same time.
But their wedding is first on the 4th of July.
Oh, that's wonderful.
Wait.
Do you mean this 4th of July?
Yes.
We're backed up on orders for months.
I'm so sorry, but that's the busiest time of the year.
Oh, no.
Little Frankie would be so disappointed if she
knew we couldn't get the wedding cake here.
Well, I would never disappoint little Frankie.
Let me go check the order book.
I'll see what I can do.
Little Frankie.
Um, who's little Frankie?
When I was like 10 or so, I wanted an extra cookie.
So I told her that I would name one of my kids after her.
Good to know.
Yeah.
So take note.
Number 4 or 5 has to be named Frankie.
Wait.
You want 4 or 5 kids?
Try 5 or 6.
Who knew that?
I did not know that.
How many do you want?
I don't know.
One?
Maybe two?
Really?
That's it?
Yeah.
It was an only child.
It came from a small family.
Okay.
I'm not supposed to do this, but I've moved things around
and I will personally see that your cake gets done.
Thank you so much.
Tracy's going to be very excited.
I'm making some progress on our to-do list.
Yeah.
Have you given any thought to our plan B for the wedding?
Not yet, you.
I was so focused on the proposal, I haven't thought much about our next steps.
What?
I just got an email from James Quincy.
Another riveting article on emerging markets?
The guy they hired for the Oxford spot just dropped out.
Apparently they're going over my application.
I can't believe I had this opportunity.
What does this mean for us?
We can move to England.
I can't move to England.
I'm about to make tenure, and you know how rare that is for a professor my age.
I can't just walk away.
Right, I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to jump ahead like that.
It's just... I'm sorry.
You know, when I applied, I hadn't met you yet.
I don't want to be responsible for you missing something like this.
We don't have to talk about this right now.
They already passed by me once.
I'm sure there's hundreds of candidates more qualified than me.
So I doubt they even offer it to me.
Maybe.
But none more hardworking or talented than you.
Thank you.
I just wanted to be...
spend some time with my girl.
We can do that.
Ooh, so close.
Maybe next time.
I can't wait for you all to see my wedding dress.
You know, I really lucked out.
Only a few alterations and it will be ready.
We successfully picked out your cake and invitations, so
creating your dream wedding in four weeks, no problem.
Uh, uh, uh, there's still a lot to do.
Don't jinx us.
Mom, don't worry.
We've got this.
Yes!
You guys win.
Again.
Rematch later?
Alright, come and get it.
Here we go.
Ribs a la Robert.
Ah, and my famous... corn on the cob.
My favorite.
Alright.
This smells amazing, Mr. Bishop.
Ah, it's the slow roast method.
The longer it waits, the better it is.
Should I be at all concerned that the fire extinguisher is so close to the grill?
Dad?
It's always been there.
When the girls were little, Stephanie would use the grill to roast her marshmallows.
We never had to use it, but let's just say we had a few close calls.
I didn't like to wait.
It's always faster if you just catch them on fire and blow it out.
I'm with her.
Can you tell me more about Stephanie as a young kid?
She was a little bit of a troublemaker.
That is not true.
Yes, it is true.
Don't you remember the time you gave all my dolls a haircut?
It was trendy.
The time we had to go to the ER when you thought it was wise to jump off the roof
with an umbrella after seeing Mary Poppins?
Tracy was our practical daughter.
Stephanie's show has moved to the beat of her own drum.
AKA Tracy was more responsible.
I didn't say that.
Hey, I'll take it.
Because I'm so responsible, I met Preston.
How'd you guys meet?
It was my first day of law school.
Very first class.
I went the wrong way and showed up with the wrong textbook.
I look over and this beautiful girl is just watching me scramble.
She reaches out, hands me the correct book and that was that.
I cannot believe you had an extra textbook.
To be fair, I had two textbooks because there were two different editions and I
didn't know which one the professor would teach from.
Been together ever since.
So what about you two?
Was it love at first sight?
It was.
For me at least.
I had a bowl of tissues taking a coffee I had to spill all over myself.
And for me it was that he didn't seem that upset at all.
Well, it was iced coffee.
I met Eleanor in second grade.
Well, that's incredible.
Yep.
You were nine years before I even asked her out.
22 before we were engaged.
That is a long time.
I think we knew each other better than we knew ourselves.
Built a solid friendship first then the romance came.
Then we had the same values, the same vision for the future.
That's the important thing.
Yes, honey, but that was our story.
Everybody's story is different.
And our Stephanie has always moved at a faster pace.
And it's worked out so far.
There we go.
Who's ready for some of this, huh?
Yeah.
Okay, who's next?
Well, we gotta find a great spot for Sam and Gary.
How about table four?
Great.
Seating chart?
Yeah, it's a bit tricky though as we're doing
it based on the save the date responses.
But you gotta get a jump on it.
Hey, have you seen Stephanie?
She's outside marking where the tables will go.
Oh.
When was that taken?
Let's see, I was seventeen so Stephanie was fifteen.
It's definitely the awkward years.
Like you had awkward years.
No, the only reason that we're not having a slideshow at the
wedding is because I had braces and headgear for three years.
She still has that beautiful smile.
Like anyway, um, I will let you guys get back to the chart.
Good luck with that.
Uh, nope.
We gotta have one less at table five.
I just got an email earlier from my cousin Timothy that he already has a fourth of
July planned so he won't be able to make it.
There's another one of my family members who's not gonna be able to come.
But the important thing is that your grandma is coming.
She's sitting right here.
Front and center.
It's true.
Did you just splash me?
What if I did?
Okay, okay, alright, truce, truce.
Alright.
Can I ask you something?
Anything.
Do you worry that people think we moved too fast?
By people do you mean my dad?
Yeah.
He keeps dropping these, uh, not so subtle hints
about us waiting, you know, taking things slower.
I know.
I'm trying to just let it go.
I just don't want people thinking we made a snap decision.
I don't want you thinking that.
You know, I, uh, I thought a lot about this.
Of course I don't.
And I don't want you to think that me saying yes was.
Okay?
Okay.
Don't you do it.
I'm pretty sure we called it truce.
Oh, we called it truce.
Are you kidding me?
Cheers.
I'm so glad that we're finally all doing a double D.
Oh, and we should go to the 4th of July Jamboree together, too.
Oh yeah, the Jamboree.
Tracy and Stephanie get pretty into it.
That's because it's fun.
This place is so cute.
Right?
I heard good things about the band, and apparently they play weddings.
Yes.
I've been looking forward to hearing them.
So, Ben, what's your go-to music?
Punk underground.
Yeah, I did my undergrad at Oxford, and I kind of got wrapped up in the whole scene.
I didn't know you lived in England.
Did you like it?
Oh, I loved it.
Yeah.
Hoping to go back someday, if timing is ever right.
At least your music tastes better than Stephanie's here.
She loves techno.
Oh yeah.
Learned to embrace that one.
It's fun to dance to.
Not bad.
It's pretty good to work out to, though.
Oh my gosh, is that Dave Robinson?
That is Dave Robinson.
Is this his band?
Must be.
Did you guys know?
No, of course not.
The Dave you were engaged to?
A Dave?
A very long time ago.
I liked Dave.
Dave!
Stop.
Preston, no.
Hey.
Stop.
Stephanie Bishop.
He's coming.
No way.
Hi, Dave.
Hey.
What are you doing here?
My parents have a vacation house here.
Ah, I remember that, yeah.
Never got the invite.
Did you miss your band?
Yeah, for now.
You know, until something better comes along.
Oh, you remember Tracy and Preston, right?
Yeah, of course.
You guys are still together.
You should be married with kids by now.
We actually just got engaged.
Oh, congrats.
And this is my fiancé, Ben.
Fiancé.
Hopefully you guys make it further than we did, huh?
We will.
So, how'd you guys meet?
Los Angeles College, where we teach.
Oh, you became a professor.
Uh-huh.
Oh, that's great.
Archaeology.
Anthropology.
Ah, close enough, right?
Not really.
Well, I'm going to finish setting up, but man, it was really good to see you, Steph.
Me too.
Hey, don't judge me on these guys.
They won't let me play my original stuff.
See you, Dave.
You okay?
Yeah.
All I'm saying is I kind of like the band.
We could at least see if they're available.
No.
That would be so weird.
I don't want that guy at our wedding in any capacity.
I don't think you would have gone to grad school
or got your doctorate if you guys stayed together.
It's true.
Him leaving you was the best thing that could happen.
Wait.
He left you?
Could you just give us a minute?
Yeah, we'll meet you at the car.
Thanks.
So we dated freshman year, and the band that he
was with at the time asked them to go on tour.
So he proposed.
And I thought it would be so cool to be engaged to a rock star, and I said yes.
My mom and dad were not thrilled when I told them that I was gonna drop out of
school and follow him, so they talked me out of it.
Thank goodness.
And then he never came back.
But it all worked out because I was able to
figure out what I wanted to do with my life.
So you have your parents to thank.
Yes.
My parents were ripped.
It wasn't until he was gone that I realized how much he was holding me back.
I'd like to think I would have figured it out at some point.
But I'm glad I went through all of that.
Because I love me to you.
Wow.
Is this a 1955 Thunderbird?
It sure is.
I didn't know you had this in here.
This is stunning.
My pride and joy.
I may have to sell it soon, though, to pay for all these weddings.
Oh, you don't have to do that.
Stephanie and I said we'd pay for it ourselves.
You don't think I can pay for my daughter's wedding?
What?
No, no, I just mean that you don't have to if you don't want to.
Not a traditional guy, huh?
I am, with some things.
Or, say, asking my permission before proposing.
It's a Thunderbird, huh?
Where'd you, uh, where'd you get her?
My dad used to own one.
A few years ago, I found this one online, been restoring it.
Has it run?
Almost.
I restored it with all original parts, but I still need an idler arm.
Can't find an authentic one anywhere, and it wasn't
made specifically for this model, so still on the hunt.
Do you mind if I, uh, have a day look?
Yeah, sure.
Nice.
You got a 292 cubic inch OHV.
You got a 292 Y-block V8 engine.
This is all first-of-the-kind stuff, sir.
I didn't realize you were into classic cars.
Oh, my dad was a mechanic.
Huh.
Some of my, uh, some of my best memories are him picking me up from school,
taking me to the shop, showing me all the cool cars.
Yeah, but this?
This was my favorite.
All Thunderbirds.
Is that all, uh, original interior as well?
Oh, yeah, you bet.
Here, come.
Come sit.
Come sit.
Really?
Yeah.
Check it out.
Oh.
Oh.
Now this is how a car is supposed to feel.
Ben, you should hit the green with Preston and me tomorrow before the food tasting.
I would love to hit the green with you guys.
Hey, you're talking about golf, right?
Yes.
All right, but I have to warn you, I'm not very good,
seeing as, uh, I've actually never played before.
That's all right.
You seem like a sharp guy.
I'm sure you'll pick it up in no time.
Hope so.
Why are you smiling?
Your dad just asked me to play golf with him tomorrow.
That's great.
I'm pretty sure we just bonded.
I knew you would.
He did make a comment about me not asking his permission before I proposed.
Hmm.
I didn't even really consider that.
It's kind of old school, but he can be swayed.
When I told him that I was taking a year off between high school and college,
I thought he'd freak out, but after a six-hour conversation about my future,
he was totally cool.
Prince, don't worry.
It's an archaic tradition.
Trust me, I would know.
Who wants some fresh lemonade?
Oh, yes, thank you.
That is amazing.
Isn't it?
It's a cucumber, my secret weapon.
Hey, Steph, did you get a chance to look at the photographers that I sent you?
Yes.
I think we should go with this one, since your
first choice is hard to get in touch with.
You know what?
I'm going to leave this to you guys.
I'm going to go watch some YouTube videos on how to hit a golf ball.
Good luck.
I like him.
Me too.
Setting the bar high like always, sir.
My axis is slightly off.
Couldn't tell?
Your downswing was perfect.
Yeah, great downswing.
Hey, did you ask for Robert's permission before you proposed to Tracy?
I did.
You didn't, I presume?
I honestly didn't even think about it.
I mean, we're not that close, and Stephanie's
more modern with that kind of stuff, you know?
He didn't say anything to you, did he?
No.
Okay, good.
Maybe that's why he's being so rough on me.
Hey, look, he was rough on me too when I first started dating
Tracy, but just give him a little while and he'll warm up.
What's a little while?
About six years.
Hey, you're up, Ben!
Oh, hey, hi.
I wouldn't go with that one.
No?
You don't want to go with a high iron on this first drive.
You want a driver.
Yeah, here you go.
Driver.
Thank you.
Yeah.
There you go.
Easy peasy.
Sorry.
Look,
golf is a game of time, patience, and precision.
Try looking at the ball the entire time.
Okay.
Whoa!
I'm so sorry.
I have no idea what happened.
That was my dad's favorite club.
Are you serious?
Sir, I will go get it right now.
I'm so sorry.
Careful not to swallow any of that water.
No clue what's in it.
Ben, Ben, Ben, Ben.
Stop, stop.
I'm kidding.
It's an old set from a yard sale.
You don't have to go in there.
Alright.
I'm so sorry.
I didn't think you'd really go in, huh?
You may not be a great golfer, but you've got zest.
Gonna be a long day.
And you're sure that we can't just have one of everything?
We do have to narrow it down a little bit.
I wanted you all here to get your feedback.
So please, be honest.
Well, of the salads, I'm liking the spinach goat cheese.
That's a really good dressing.
Okay.
Well, my dear, I think the mixed spring greens
with the crumbled blue cheese is the way to go.
Mmm, I don't know.
I think that the simple iceberg with bacon is always the best choice.
So everyone likes something different.
Great.
That should make things easier.
Salads are the safe choice for appetizers, but if this
was my wedding, I think I'd do the coconut shrimp.
Yeah, me too.
I mean, it's really good.
Oh, but honey, you have to have a salad at a wedding.
Why?
Can't mix it up.
Because there's a reason for traditions like having salad before a meal.
Yeah, sure.
I mean, because, you know, that's what people expect.
Thoughts on main dishes?
Chicken, hands down.
I'd say pot roast.
The sauce on top was incredible.
No!
I know pot roast.
I make an old family recipe every Christmas.
Girls, you have to admit, mine's way better.
Come on!
How do you make it?
Sorry, Ben.
Secret recipe.
Only for family members.
Well, then I guess you're gonna have to let me know pretty soon.
Then we'll see how it goes.
Dad!
Robert!
I'm kidding!
Excuse me real quick.
I have to take this.
Well, we should probably eat the rest of the food.
We don't want it to go to waste.
You just want the rest of mine, don't you?
Are you serious?
If you don't want it.
Okay, take the rest of this, too.
No, thank you so much.
I mean, the blue cheese.
I'm serious.
Preston will finish all of them.
Who is it?
That was James Quincy.
He just offered me the job at Oxford.
That is great.
Wow.
Congratulations.
Thank you, sir.
Okay, so how many chairs does that package come with?
So could we do half the amount for a little less of the cost?
I see.
Okay, thank you.
I'll let you know.
Is he okay?
I never realized how complicated chair and table rentals could be.
Well, do you think you'll have time for a little break?
I'd love to talk.
I'd love a break.
Good, because I have the perfect place.
Where?
It's a surprise.
Hmm.
Intriguing.
Ben, you did all this?
I did.
Tracy mentioned it, and I figured this was the perfect spot.
What's all this for?
Us.
Look, I figured we could talk about the job offer and, uh, just get away for a minute.
Have a seat.
Thank you.
So, did you find out when you have to give him your decision?
I did.
Two weeks.
July 3rd.
So right before the wedding.
If I did take the job, would you come with me?
I mean, moving to England would be such a fun adventure,
and there's a part of me that would say yes in a heartbeat.
But I'm scared.
If I leave my job, I have to start all over.
Yeah.
And I built this great career at Los
Angeles College that no one really expected.
And I can't let that go.
I have to see it through.
I won't take the job.
Then there's that other side.
I can't live with myself if I know you didn't take it because of me.
Well, what if we don't talk about it right now?
I have two weeks before I have to give him an answer.
And it is a beautiful day.
It's a beautiful lake.
Beautiful woman.
This decision won't just go away.
I know, but maybe we don't have to make a decision right this second.
We can hold off, and maybe it'll change if we don't harp on it.
I think I can try to do that.
Yeah.
Besides, we've got some fun stuff to do.
Stuff coming up.
We've got the jamboree.
Oh yes, I cannot wait for this jamboree.
Please tell me there's a charcuterie plate in there.
Oh, you mean this?
I love you.
I love you too.
I wish I could tell him to stay.
Forget about the job.
So why don't you?
I'm worried he'll listen.
And then later, when it's too late, he'll know what he missed out on.
Should I just go with him?
I don't think that there's an easy answer here.
I know.
What are you ladies talking about?
Nothing.
Today is a fun day.
No stress.
No talking about the wedding or England.
That's going to be a little difficult considering this is an Independence Day
celebration and England had a little something to do with that.
You know what I mean.
Guess how many jelly beans to win a free dinner?
There's at least 200 in there.
What?
No, there's over a thousand.
Hey, how many are you putting?
I'm not telling.
Sign.
See, Ben, isn't this fun?
To be honest, it is.
It's my first jamboree.
This was always Tracy and I's favorite part of the summer.
Especially the balloon pop.
Yes, the balloon pop.
We have to do that.
What is the balloon pop?
Don't ask.
Preston's just bitter because we always win.
I always let you win.
Tracy, that sounds like a challenge.
It does sound like a challenge.
We accept.
So,
the team that pops the most balloons after throwing all the darts wins.
Sounds easy enough.
Not as easy as you think.
Boys versus girls.
Oh, it's on.
Careful, Ben.
The Bishop girls get very competitive.
We'll see.
Ladies first.
Yeah.
Okay, lucky shot.
Where's this coming from?
Played a lot of darts in college.
Wait till you see Tracy's arm in the dunk tank.
You guys put up a good fight.
We didn't stand a chance, did we?
You guys won every game at the jamboree.
That's how we roll.
At least we didn't come out totally empty-handed.
Ben won.
In Constitution trivia.
Yeah, and he got that super cool flag.
Which makes no sense at an Independence Day celebration.
Maybe it's a sign.
Maybe.
And may I have your attention, please.
The winner of the Guess the Number of Jelly Beans contest with a guess of 1,776
is Tracy Fisher!
1776, of course.
Redheads?
No way!
Yes.
I'm telling you, there's no way!
Studies have shown that a significant amount of Neanderthals were redheads.
Alright, yeah, and who's doing these studies?
Scientists.
Okay, I get it.
I got it.
You okay?
No.
That was our firm on the phone.
They've been trying to reach us all day.
Apparently there was an issue with the paperwork Preston and I submitted for the
case we were just working on before we left.
Now we have to go refile back in San Francisco
ASAP or our client could go into bankruptcy.
What?
Don't they know you're on vacation or that you're planning your wedding?
It doesn't matter.
It has to get done.
So what are you going to do?
Preston's looking up flights right now.
I'm hoping we can sort it out in a day or two.
But that means I need you to take over all of the planning.
Of course.
Whatever you need.
Thanks for your lifesaver.
Mom said she and dad will help out too.
The most important thing is that my dress needs to be picked up tomorrow.
Done.
We also have to figure out something with centerpieces.
On it.
And make sure that all of the rentals are arriving on time.
No problem.
Thank you so much.
Mom said it would be a lot for you to handle but I told her that you got this.
Hi.
Welcome.
Hi.
I'm Becky.
Would you like to try that on?
Oh, no thank you.
I'm actually here picking up for my sister, Tracy Bishop.
Yes.
It just came in.
I'll go grab it.
Thanks.
I'm so glad we were able to get it sized correctly in time.
Wow.
It's stunning.
It is.
And so is the one you have in your hand there.
Ow.
Huge misconception in my line of work that only brides-to-be can try dresses on.
Well, ironically, I'm also a bride-to-be.
Even better.
I shouldn't.
Lots to do.
And I don't even have a date picked out yet.
So, you know.
No date means no pressure.
That's the best way to try these things on.
True.
And in Roman times, the bridesmaids were actually required to wear the same dress
as the bride to pose as decoys in case enemy
kingdoms or evil spirits tried kidnapping the bride.
So really, it's tradition.
Oh, I'm an anthropology professor.
Oh, okay.
That makes more sense.
Yes.
I mean, I guess I could try one on.
What's the harm in that?
See, I like this one.
The neckline and the waist.
It's exactly what I want.
You look beautiful.
Hmm.
Trying on dresses already.
Hi, Mom.
I was picking up Tracy's and I got a little carried away.
It fits you perfectly.
It does, doesn't it?
I love it.
You look beautiful, honey.
Why don't we go get a nice coffee?
What do you say?
Sure.
I'll go change.
I just don't want you to rush into this marriage.
At least until we find out where Ben's job is
going to take him and where that leaves you both.
Mom, I'm not like everybody else in this family and I don't plan things right.
But that doesn't mean I don't know what I want.
Sweetheart, you've only known Ben for six months.
Marriage is for life.
It's okay to take your time.
Maybe we did jump in a little quickly and we didn't think out every single future
decision, but I have never been so sure of anything in my life.
I just don't want it to be like with Dave.
With you wanting to follow him without thinking
things through, I don't want to see you get hurt.
This is a completely different situation.
And I've grown so much since then.
You're right.
You have.
And I am so proud of the woman you've become.
But you're still my baby girl and I reserve the right to worry.
And you also need to trust that I can make my own choices.
Like getting engaged, moving to England...
Ben is a good guy and I can see how much you care for each other.
Just promise me when you're making those choices
that you'll think about what's right for you too.
Because that's what's going to be best for both of you.
I promise.
That dress was gorgeous.
Wasn't it?
Oh my god.
I love it.
Hey, how's it going?
Not good.
Things are snowballing.
Ann Preston just received some really bad news.
Oh no, what happened?
His grandmother fell and she's not going to be able to make it to the wedding.
Oh my god, that's horrible.
I know, and he was so looking forward to her being there.
When do you guys think he'll be here?
Hopefully soon.
Look, I know you're already doing a million things, but
I haven't received a confirmation from the florist yet.
Can you go check on the order?
Absolutely.
First thing tomorrow.
Okay, thanks.
You're a lifesaver.
Of course.
Good luck.
Thanks.
Love you.
Love you.
Give Preston my love too.
Bye.
But my sister placed the order on the website two weeks ago.
I am so sorry.
I'm not seeing anything under that name.
Could it be under Preston?
Well, we just updated our website.
It might just be an unfortunate glitch.
What were you looking for?
We're doing red rose bouquets.
Oh, that shouldn't be a problem.
Let me start a new order.
Now, when's the wedding?
July 4th.
This year?
Yes.
That's next week.
Technically, six days.
I'm not sure we can fill such a big order in such short time.
That's why she placed the order two weeks ago.
Right.
Hmm.
Let me see what I can do.
Thank you.
Of course, Tracy puts me in charge and it's already falling apart.
It's not falling apart.
It's a minor hiccup.
I just feel like this wedding is getting closer and closer by the minute.
I know.
So is this decision you have to make about the job.
I know.
We need to discuss it.
Soon.
We will.
As soon as we finish all the wedding errands, okay?
We probably won't be able to do all roses.
Are you okay with other flowers?
Uh, yeah.
We're going with red, white, and blue so as long as they're red...
Oh, we can totally do that.
Ranunculus, sugar bushes, dahlias, anthurium, peonies.
There are so many beautiful flowers that come in red.
Great.
Hey, it may even be better than plain roses anyway.
Problem solved.
One problem solved.
Stephanie, Ben.
Hi, Frankie.
Tracy's cake is looking great.
Oh, that's so good to hear.
Come decorate some 4th of July tarts.
We really shouldn't.
We still have so much to do.
I don't think we can make time.
Plus, they smell amazing.
Okay, why not?
Why, uh, why tarts?
Ah, this was the favorite food of our founding fathers.
That actually makes sense because raspberry tarts were very popular in the late 1700s.
Decorate.
Oh, we both started with the same color icing.
A sign it's meant to be.
All right.
What are you making?
The original flag with the stars for the original colonies.
I love it.
What about you?
Obviously, a very detailed portrait of Thomas Jefferson.
Oh.
With spiky hair.
Ha, ha, ha.
So the chairs will be in rows over here.
Yeah.
Uh-huh.
And where's the band gonna go?
Well, there's no band, but the DJ will be over here.
Ah.
Oh, hey.
Hey.
Um, you guys can put those on the side of the house for storage.
Thank you.
It's coming along great.
I'm very proud of you.
Oh, for being able to direct people where to store chairs?
No, no.
Because, uh, well, for helping your sister plan this wedding.
For, uh, for being on track for tenure.
For, uh, for just being, uh, being an amazing daughter.
Thanks, Dad.
You deserve the best.
Always.
Are you talking about Ben?
Look, Stephanie.
The first date I ever took your mom on was, uh, to grab
a cheeseburger at a diner when we were just teenagers.
Oh, I... I was worried it wasn't nice enough.
Not good enough for someone as special as she was.
But it was all I could afford.
Ha, ha.
Your mom didn't care at all.
She, she, she, she loved it.
Anyway, we spent, we spent that whole day talking plans for our future.
Dreaming about things we wanted out of life.
And we quickly discovered we pretty much wanted the same things.
I left knowing I'd marry her.
Years later, after I'd become a doctor, uh, I took her
to this very fancy restaurant for our 15th anniversary.
She looked at the menu and was sad.
There were no cheeseburgers on it.
She, she asked if we could leave and go back
to the diner where we had our first date.
I asked her why.
She told me the cheeseburger reminded her that we
had, in fact, made our lives what we wanted together.
I like that.
Hmm.
You love someone you want to spend the rest of your life with.
The only thing that matters is that you have the same vision for the future.
Wow.
Why on earth did you wait so long to marry her after that first date?
Sounds like you could have eloped that night.
That's definitely, that is not at all the point I was trying to make.
I know.
My point is that you knew Mom was the woman for you.
Right away.
And I know that Ben is the man for me.
He's so kind.
He's just somewhere over there.
And thoughtful.
We laugh every day and he cheers me on in every part of my life.
So you may think that this is fast.
But in 10 years or 20 or 30, whatever, he's
the one I want to have the cheeseburger with.
Well, everything seems to be coming in on time.
Which is a good sign.
I just talked to Tracy and they are wrapping things up.
They'll be home tomorrow, so we are on track.
I know she's so grateful to you for taking over.
Well, I know she'd do the same if the tables were reversed.
Hello?
Oh my gosh.
Tell her congratulations.
No, I totally understand.
Thanks for letting me know.
The photographer can't make it anymore.
What happened?
No.
She had a baby.
What?
Okay, we'll find another one.
Four days out?
Do you know how hard it was to book her?
Well, if anybody can do it, you can.
I'm sure they're out there.
Okay, I hope you look.
Yeah, this July 4th?
Yes, as in four days from now.
Hello?
Yeah, so just be for the basic package.
Great.
The wedding is this Tuesday.
Oh, you're already booked.
Okay, thank you.
Hey, have you tried this guy?
Rinaldo Salks?
Says he's the best wedding photographer in Palm Springs.
Oh yeah, I tried him a couple weeks ago before we booked this other one,
but his messages were full and I couldn't get through.
Well, his social media says, he's working an
engagement party tomorrow at the country club.
It's too bad we can't go ask him.
Why can't we?
Uh, because we're not invited.
Just act like you've been invited and nobody knows the difference.
Why do I feel like you crashed a party before?
It was a long time ago, and I was writing a dissertation.
Ah, okay.
Relax your shoulders a bit.
Oh, there he is.
Can I get you to just smile a little bit?
Yeah.
Okay.
So what's the plan?
We're just gonna wing it.
He's gonna work his way through the guests,
and then we wait for our chance to talk to him.
Okay, and what do we do till then?
Enjoy a party we didn't have to plan.
I like that.
You're right.
When you act like you belong, no one even knows.
It's a bizarre human trait.
Listen, about the job.
Before you say anything, um, I've been thinking about it.
And I want you to take it.
What about you?
Lovely couple.
May I take a picture?
You may.
Yes!
Uh, if we can ask you a question.
I don't use filters if that's your question.
No, that's not it.
Are you available to shoot a wedding on the 4th of July?
This 4th of July?
As in a few days from now?
Yes, here in Palm Springs at our vacation home.
Are you friends of John or Ellie?
Um...
Neither.
I don't understand.
Well, we weren't able to get in touch with you, and we knew you'd be here.
I think this is the first time I've been stocked for my services.
Flattered?
A little scared.
It's for my sister.
Our photographer had a baby and can't make it, and we are desperate.
Normally I'd say no, because this is weird.
But since you've gone to all this trouble of tracking me down, and you've been at
this party for half an hour without being noticed, I guess okay.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
I will not take any photos with you at this, though.
Yeah, it's probably best you don't.
People are starting to stare, so we should probably head out.
Thank you again.
You're welcome.
Thank you.
May I take your photo?
Oh, hey.
You're back.
Yes, finally.
Every time we were close to finishing, something else came up.
Where were you guys?
Oh, you know, just getting Rinaldo's socks to photograph your wedding.
No way.
That's great.
But what about the other photographer?
She had a baby.
But the important thing is that we are on track with everything for the wedding.
I know.
It's so incredible.
Oh, you're the best.
See, now you want to keep your shoulders, waist, and knees all parallel to the
ground so that when you swing, you get the full momentum of the twist.
Okay.
Okay?
Okay.
Better.
Nice.
Now just make sure that you curve that club around your body.
You don't hit the club straight in order to make the ball go straight.
Okay.
All right.
Hey, I appreciate your help.
If Robert actually ever invites me back out, I want to show off my golfing skills
and not my ability to chuck a club into the lake.
Of course.
And besides, it helps keep my mind off things, so... The wedding?
Yeah.
Is everything okay?
No.
Okay.
Not exactly.
The co-feet?
No.
It's nothing like that.
I can't wait to marry Tracy, but once I found out that my grandma couldn't make it
along with pretty much half of my family, I started to
wonder if we should even have the wedding right now at all.
Hmm.
I want to share the most important day of my life with the ones that I love,
and I just, I know that Tracy has her heart set on
having this wedding here at the vacation house, and...
I'm sorry.
I didn't mean to dump this all on you.
I just, I don't know what to do.
Look, it's fine.
I get it.
All right?
I'd say your best bet is just to talk to Tracy.
Tell her how you're feeling.
No, but she is so excited about this wedding.
I can't ask her not to have it.
But you love each other, right?
All right, then she'll understand how important it is.
What?
Just realizing I should be taking my own advice.
I have to give you an answer on the job tomorrow,
and, uh, Steffi and I have a lot to talk about.
I'm just not sure what jewelry to wear with the trip.
You should do some dress.
You should do an earring.
Dad, can you get that?
You guys expecting more deliveries?
Not until tomorrow.
Uh, hi.
Uh, oh.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Here.
It has my name on it.
And did you order something?
No.
It can't be.
What is it?
It's the idler arm I need for my Thunderbird.
Who sent it to you?
I don't know.
Robert, Ben told me you could use one of these.
Enjoy.
Thomas Larson.
It's Ben's dad.
Ben did this.
I told you he was thoughtful.
I can't believe you did this for me.
This looks beautiful.
Thank you.
Thank you.
I can't believe that guessing the right number
of jelly beans in a jar got us a dinner here.
Well, I'm glad it did.
It gives us a chance to take a step back from work and from...
From wedding planning.
Trace...
I want to talk to you about the wedding.
Ah, let's give it a try.
Oh, you bet your life.
That sounds good.
Thanks to you.
You're a spin.
You want to come along?
Stephanie and I have some stuff to do, but maybe later.
Alright.
Later it is.
Enjoy.
Bye-bye.
You know you just validated his obsession, right?
Oh, you mean his hobby?
Same thing.
Look, I have to tell Quincy an answer tomorrow, so...
we should probably talk about it.
I'll go to England with you.
I was going to tell you I'm not going to take the job, but...
You would move to England?
You don't want to take the job?
No, I do.
I mean, to work with Quincy would be a highlight of my
career, but without you, then it doesn't mean anything.
You would really move?
I would for you.
I can't ask you to do that.
You know, I know how hard you've worked for everything, and I couldn't live with
myself if I know I made you give it all up.
Maybe if we'd been together for a couple years, and we're actually on the same page
about what we wanted, but we haven't even talked about this.
We don't even know if we want the same amount of kids.
Maybe we did rush into this.
So what now?
You take the job and I stay here.
And us?
Put a pin in it.
Take a break.
You could really do that?
If it meant you following your dreams.
You following yours.
Glad I caught you before you left.
Mr. Bishop, what are you doing here?
Thought I'd take another drive in the T-Bird.
Brought me here.
Which brings me to my next point.
What are you doing here?
Stephanie thought this was for the best.
Stephanie was a little girl.
She dug a hole in the wall and thought the fiberglass insulation was cotton candy and
that it led to a magical land so no Stephanie doesn't always know what's best.
She thought I'd be happy taking my dream job.
But... Stephanie doesn't realize that I can't be happy without her in my life.
Then I think there's something you would mean to ask me.
What?
My blessing to marry my daughter.
I didn't think you liked me, Mr. Bishop.
It isn't about time you called me Robert.
Look, I admit, I...
I didn't get you at first.
But now I see how thoughtful you are about my daughter.
How you put her needs before your own.
How you went above and beyond just to get me an old car part.
Bottom line, I've never seen Stephanie smile more than when she's with you.
And I wish we could be together.
Sometimes when I'm working on the car and
it's just not doing what I want it to I stop.
I breathe.
I look at it from a different angle.
Try to see my other options.
There's always another way to go about things.
Parked in a loading zone.
Better get going.
So anyway you have it.
Have what?
My blessing.
For whenever you need it.
Thank you, Robert.
You're up early.
Couldn't sleep.
There's something that I have to tell you.
Me too.
Do you want to go first?
No, you go.
Preston and I are calling off the wedding.
What?
Preston doesn't want to get married unless all of his family can be there.
Especially his grandmother.
And I agree, I was just on such a whirlwind with getting the wedding ready in time.
I never realized how he was feeling.
Until last night.
I get it.
It'd be really hard to get married without all the people that you love most there.
Thank you for being so understanding.
I know you have worked so hard on this wedding
and I was terrified to tell you that it's off.
I have to follow my heart.
Where's Ben?
At the bus station.
Why?
What happened?
I told him to take the job and to put a pin in us.
Stephanie, you and I both know you're supposed to be with Ben.
Go after him.
I can't.
I have to let him go after what he wants.
Do you love him?
With all my heart.
I've seen the way that he talks about you.
The way that he looks at you.
You think some job is more important than what the two of you have.
It just all happened too fast.
I didn't even know his favorite color until a couple weeks ago.
Who cares about that?
That's not important and you know it.
I can't give up what I've been working for for some guy.
I didn't do it with Dave and I'm not going to do it now.
Ben is not some guy.
And he is definitely not Dave.
You need to ask yourself what is best for you and Ben as a couple.
You need to be honest with each other.
I want to be.
Well.
What does your heart tell you?
He wasn't at the bus stop.
I missed him.
Maybe check outside?
Why?
Trust me.
Hello beautiful.
Hi.
So I just got off the phone with Quincy.
And I told him that I'm not taking the position.
But I did pitch him a new one.
One where I can stay in LA.
Do my research.
And for once a year.
For a couple weeks I go to Oxford and I teach my findings.
And I thought for those couple weeks maybe he would come with me.
As long as I schedule it, you know, this summer.
I like this plan.
What did he say?
He said he thought it would work.
And as far as kids go.
We'll figure it out.
Maybe I want six kids.
Maybe I could just do four.
With like two dogs.
I don't care how long we've known each other.
Or that we don't know every single thing about each other yet.
Because.
Stephanie what we have is real.
And it's lasting.
I'm here for you.
And I want to be here for you for the rest of my life.
I'm here for you.
Because my only dream is you.
So I'm going to ask you a familiar question.
It's all about what you want.
Not what you think is right or what you think is best for me.
Do you think you can answer it honestly?
Stephanie will you still marry me?
With all my heart.
What is this?
Stephanie I want to give this to you.
For you.
With it comes a wedding.
A perfect 4th of July dream wedding.
Are you sure?
It's your wedding.
It always really was.
Well I guess I'm going to have to get my parents on the next flight out.
You may now all be seated.
Ben.
You are my everything.
I'm so lucky that I found you.
And there's no one else I'd rather grow old with.
I know what I want.
It's you.
Now and forever.
Stephanie.
No matter what roadblocks come our way.
I will always support and love you.
You are the most amazing woman that I have ever met.
I am so lucky that I found you.
Thank you.
Do you Stephanie take Ben to be your lawfully wedded husband?
I do.
Do you Ben take Stephanie to be your lawfully wedded wife?
I do.
You may now kiss the bride.
I love you.
I love you.
I love you.
Thank you.
The first time I saw you I knew.
A spark that I couldn't undo.
Not even if I wanted to.
And in this moment.
I saw my life pass before me.
And I knew that it would... Ben is such a lovely young man.
Go get yourself a drink Tom.
Mom.
Dad.
There's something we want to tell you.
Good news.
Very.
We just got off the phone with the realtor.
Preston and I have decided to buy the house from you.
What?
What about the other buyer?
It took a little convincing but we got him to drop out.
Did I just hear this right?
Are you guys buying the house?
We are.
Are you sure?
You want to do this?
Yes.
We can't imagine not having this house in our family.
Besides.
When Preston's grandma feels better.
We still want to have our wedding right here in the backyard.
Well that's just wonderful honey.
Oh you're going to make me cry again.
Hey.
Would you mind if I had this dance?
This one?
Everyone.
In this moment.
I see all the dreams coming true.
I see all the dreams coming true.
I was just thinking how they found proof of humans dancing on cable.
The paintings from 9000 years ago.
That's what you were thinking about?
Yeah.
I like how it's in our DNA to want to connect like this.
I like it.
You too.
Come on let's find a way.
Find a way home.
I'll paint you a sky blue rainbow.
Come on let's find a way.
Oh oh oh.
Let's find a way.
Find a way home.
