- MORNING.

THANK YOU SO MUCH.
- YOU'RE WELCOME.

- GOOD MORNING, LORI.
- GOOD MORNING, KATHERINE.

- I'M ON MY WAY TO COURT
FOR THE MARTIN CASE.

OH, NO, JACK WANTED ME
TO REVIEW THE MCQUE CASE.

- I'M GETTING THE FILES.
AND...THERE. EMAILED.

AND DON'T FORGET,
YOU HAVE MRS. BENNETT

FIRST THING TOMORROW.
- RIGHT.

I'LL GO OVER EVERYTHING
AFTER COURT.

WAIT, I'M SUPPOSED
TO MEET MARCIE,

AND THEN WE HAVE DINNER.

WELL, WHO NEEDS SLEEP?

- THE MARTIN CASE?
- THANK YOU.

- I AM NOT GIVING UP
MY BASEBALL CARDS.

I'VE BEEN COLLECTING THOSE
SINCE I WAS A KID.

AND MY WIFE, SHE WOULDN'T
KNOW THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN BABE RUTH
AND A BABY RUTH.

- SHE'S DOING THIS
AS LEVERAGE.

SHE'S NOT INTERESTED
IN YOUR BASEBALL CARDS,

BUT SHE IS INTERESTED
IN THE SUMMER HOME.

SHE'S NOT GETTING EITHER.
- ALL RISE.

BE SEATED.

GOOD MORNING.

I HOPE EVERYONE'S
HAD A CHANCE TO CONSIDER

THEIR LAST REQUESTS
BEFORE I MAKE A FINAL RULING.

COUNSELOR.
- YES, YOUR HONOR.

THERE IS A PIECE OF PROPERTY
THAT HAS BEEN

LEFT OUT OF THE DIVISION
OF ASSETS--

A RATHER LARGE, VALUABLE
BASEBALL CARD COLLECTION.

- OBJECTION, YOUR HONOR.

THE COLLECTION WAS INHERITED
BY MY CLIENT

BEFORE HIS MARRIAGE,
WHICH EXCLUDES MRS. MARTIN

FROM CLAIMING ANY OWNERSHIP
TO IT.

- MY CLIENT ADDED
SEVERAL VERY VALUABLE CARDS

TO THE COLLECTION.

HOWEVER, IF MR. MARTIN
IS ATTACHED TO THE COLLECTION,

MRS. MARTIN WILL CONSIDER
TRADING THIS ASSET FOR ANOTHER.

- LIKE THE SUMMER HOME?
- WE WOULD CONSIDER THAT

A FAIR TRADE.
- YOUR HONOR.

MR. MARTIN'S CORPORATION
RECENTLY TOOK OWNERSHIP

OF THE COLLECTION
IN QUESTION.

PER CALIFORNIA STATE
CORPORATE PROPERTY LAWS,

THIS EXPLICITLY EXCLUDES
MRS. MARTIN

FROM CLAIMING THE COLLECTION
OR ANY INCREASE IN VALUE.

NOW, I PROPOSE THAT THIS ASSET
AND ALL OTHER ASSETS

BE DIVIDED
AS PREVIOUSLY AGREED UPON,

AND THAT WE FINALIZE THE
DISSOLUTION OF THIS MARRIAGE.

- I AGREE, COUNSELOR.

- HEY, MARCIE.
- HEY, KAT.

- HEY, CHUCK.
- HEY, KATHERINE.

- WE HAVE A VANILLA LATTE
READY FOR YOU.

- OH, BEAUTIFUL.
THANK YOU.

SORRY I'M SO LATE.
I WAS STUCK IN COURT.

- CHUCK, I'LL BE GONE
FOR ABOUT AN HOUR.

- GOT IT.
- SO DID YOU WIN?

- WE WON,
BUT IT WASN'T PRETTY.

IT JUST NEVER CEASES
TO AMAZE ME

HOW WIDE-EYED AND OPTIMISTIC
COUPLES START OUT

AND HOW MEAN-SPIRITED
AND VINDICTIVE THEY END UP.

- MAYBE THEY WERE
NEVER RIGHT

FOR ONE ANOTHER
IN THE FIRST PLACE.

- MAYBE.

BUT IF THEY'D HAD A PRENUP,

THEN THEY WOULDN'T HAVE HAD
THE CHANCE

TO BE SO NASTY
TO ONE ANOTHER.

- NOT THIS AGAIN.

- MARCIE, YOU'VE GOT A BUSINESS
TO PROTECT.

OKAY, I'M SORRY.

I KNOW YOU DON'T LIKE TALKING
ABOUT THIS.

- I HATE TALKING ABOUT THIS.

- BUT TRY NOT TO THINK ABOUT
A PRENUP AS BEING UNROMANTIC.

IT'S SIMPLY PRACTICAL.
IT'S LIKE CAR INSURANCE.

YOU DON'T PLAN ON DRIVING
YOUR CAR INTO A FIRE HYDRANT,

BUT IF YOU DO, YOU'RE COVERED.
- OKAY.

I'M NEVER DRIVING
WITH YOU AGAIN.

KAT, I KNOW YOU'RE JUST TRYING
TO PROTECT ME,

BUT I LOVE RICK
WITH ALL OF MY HEART,

AND GETTING A PRENUP
FEELS LIKE

I'M SETTING OUR MARRIAGE UP
TO FAIL.

NOW, CAN YOU PLEASE SLIP OUT
OF DIVORCE ATTORNEY MODE

AND INTO BEST FRIEND/ROOMMATE/
MAID OF HONOR MODE?

- YES.
- GOOD.

'CAUSE WE'RE GONNA BE LATE
FOR DORA.

- IF SHE'S ALL-KNOWING,
SHOULDN'T SHE KNOW

WE'RE GONNA BE LATE?

- SHE'S NOT ALL-KNOWING.
- NO KIDDING.

- SHE KNOWS THINGS
BEFORE THEY HAPPEN.

SHE IS VERY INSIGHTFUL.

- SHE GIVES MANICURES.

- THE DAY I MET RICK,

SHE TOLD ME
I'D MEET THE MAN

WHO WILL ETERNALLY
SET MY HEART ON FIRE.

NOW TRY TO TELL ME
SHE DOESN'T KNOW THINGS.

- ALL I NEED FOR HER TO KNOW
ABOUT IS MY DRY CUTICLES.

- HAVE A SEAT.
[laughs]

SO LET ME SEE
THOSE NAILS.

WHOO!
SO TELL DORA.

HOW ARE THE WEDDING PLANS
COMING ALONG?

- OKAY, I GUESS.

I'M JUST FOCUSING ON THE PRIZE:
THE HONEYMOON.

WE'RE GOING TO PARIS.
- OOH, LA, LA.

- BUT DORA KNOWS THAT, RIGHT?
- DON'T MIND KAT.

SHE DOESN'T BELIEVE THAT YOU
PREDICTED WHEN I'D MEET RICK.

- MOST PEOPLE DO NOT BELIEVE.

IT TAKES AN OPEN HEART.

- I BELIEVE IN FACTS.

- BUT THERE IS A MATCH
FOR EVERYONE.

- DO YOU SEE A MATCH
FOR KATHERINE?

- MARCIE, DON'T.
- YES.

DORA SEES A MATCH,

EVEN FOR KATHERINE.

I SEE...

I SEE...

IT'S COMING TO ME.

I'M FEELING IT.

OH.
HE IS...

MICHAEL.
- NO WAY.

THAT IS SO SPECIFIC.

- I'M MEETING A MICHAEL.
WHEN?

CAN I PENCIL HIM IN?
MY SCHEDULE'S KINDA PACKED.

- MICHAEL.
- EXACTLY.

- TO THE FUTURE MISTER
AND MISSUS, CHEERS.

- NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
THIS DINNER IS FOR YOU AND KAT.

A THANK YOU FOR BEING OUR
BEST MAN AND MAID OF HONOR.

IT'S ABOUT TIME
YOU TWO FINALLY MET.

- AH, GUYS.
WE APPRECIATE IT.

CHEERS.
- AND I REALLY APPRECIATE

A HOME-COOKED MEAL.

STILL HAVEN'T UNPACKED
MY KITCHEN YET.

- TOM, WHEN DID YOU MOVE
BACK INTO TOWN?

- IT'LL BE A MONTH
NEXT WEEK.

- [laughs]
- I KNOW, I KNOW.

SO KATHERINE, WHAT KIND OF LAW
DO YOU PRACTICE?

- SHE'S A DIVORCE LAWYER.

SHE HELPS PEOPLE BREAK UP
70 HOURS A WEEK.

- OH, COME ON, HON.

SOMETIMES, SHE HELPS PEOPLE
STAY TOGETHER.

RIGHT?
- NO, NOT REALLY.

- OH.

I THINK THAT WOULD GET A LITTLE
DEPRESSING AFTER A WHILE.

- ACTUALLY, PEOPLE
ARE SO RELIEVED

TO FINALLY BE RID
OF THEIR SPOUSES,

THEY CAN'T THANK ME ENOUGH.

- DUDE, YOU DO THE OPPOSITE
OF WHAT SHE DOES.

- ARE YOU A MATCHMAKER?

[laughter]

- NO.
HE'S A NOVELIST.

- I WROTE A BOOK
A COUPLE YEARS AGO,

AND IT DID PRETTY WELL,
SO I WROTE ANOTHER ONE.

- TOM, SHE ONLY READS MURDER
MYSTERIES AND LAW JOURNALS.

SHE HATES GUSHY LOVE STORIES.

- OH, OKAY.
- I DON'T HATE LOVE STORIES.

- KAT, WE WERE
JUST DISCUSSING TODAY

HOW YOU'RE NOT A BELIEVER.

BUT THAT MAY CHANGE SOON.

- NO.
- DORA MADE A PREDICTION.

- OOH.
YOU SAW DORA.

- WHO'S DORA?
- A CHARLATAN.

- MY MANICURIST.

SHE KNEW THAT RICK AND I
WOULD FALL IN LOVE, AND NOW
SHE SEES THAT FOR KAT.

- REALLY?
- I KNOW.

SHE'S LIKE A MATCHMAKER.

SHE SAW KAT'S MR. RIGHT.

HIS NAME IS MICHAEL.

- [shrieks]
- OOH.

- DO YOU NOT LIKE
ANY "MICHAELs"?

IS THAT THE PROBLEM?
- [sighing]

- HE'LL PROBABLY
LET YOU CALL HIM "MIKE."

- [laughs]

- MIKEY?

- [sighs]

SO HOW'S MY DAY LOOK?

- IT'S PACKED,
BUT PRETTY FRONT-LOADED.

YOU MAY GET OUT OF HERE
BEFORE 8:00.

- HM. NICE.

- 9:30 CALL WITH OPPOSING
COUNSEL ON THE GREENWALT CASE.

11:00 MEETING WITH ANNE
ABOUT THE DALTON CASE.

MR. KING AT 12:15,
MRS. SWEENEY,

A NEW CLIENT AT 1:45,

MRS. HILNER-REISMAN-FORD
AT 3:30.

- REMEMBER WHEN SHE WAS JUST
MRS. HILNER-REISMAN?

THAT WAS A PRETTY CUT
AND DRY SPLIT.

- [knocks at door]
- GOOD MORNING, JACK.

- KATHERINE.
GREAT WORK ON THE MARTIN CASE.

- THANK YOU.
- IN FACT, WE'D LIKE YOU

TO TAKE OVER
THE BARNWORTH CASE.

- GREAT.
- THEY'LL BE HERE AT 4:30.

- OKAY.
- YOU KNOW THAT LITTLE CHAT

WE HAD LAST WEEK?

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK,
AND I THINK YOU'LL BE

ONE OF THE YOUNGEST PARTNERS
THIS FIRM HAS EVER SEEN.

- PARTNER.
- I KNOW.

MR. BARNWORTH HAS AGREED
TO GIVE MRS. BARNWORTH

THE HOMES IN MALIBU,
SEDONA, AND FLORIDA.

IN RETURN, MR. BARNWORTH
WOULD RETAIN

MRS. BARNWORTH'S SHARES
IN BARNWORTH-BOYD.

- NO, I CHANGED MY MIND.

- MRS. BARNWORTH
IS NOT INTERESTED

IN RELINQUISHING HER SHARES
UNLESS MR. BARNWORTH

GIVES HER THE ANTIQUE CAR
COLLECTION AS WELL.

- WHAT?
- THE VALUE OF THE REAL ESTATE

FAR EXCEEDS THE CURRENT VALUE
OF THE SHARES.

- AND WHAT OF MY VALUE?

I KEPT HIS HOME
FOR 32 YEARS.

I WANT THE CARS.
- THIS IS RIDICULOUS.

YOU DON'T EVEN DRIVE
A STICK SHIFT.

- WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME
YOU DROVE ONE OF THEM?

YOU JUST WASH AND POLISH THEM.
- MARCIE'S ON LINE TWO.

- CAN YOU TAKE A MESSAGE?

- SHE SAID
IT'S VERY IMPORTANT.

- I TAKE CARE
OF MY VALUABLES.

- WELL, CLEARLY THAT'S NOT TRUE,
OR WE WOULDN'T BE HERE.

- MARCIE, I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF--
- REMEMBER MY FRIEND AMY?

- WHAT?
- WELL, I WAS CHATTING

WITH HER EARLIER, AND--
- NO, MARCIE.

I'M WITH CLIENTS.
- I JUST WANNA KNOW

IF THAT'S OKAY.
7:00 AT MY COFFEE BAR?

- YEAH, YEAH, SURE.
WHATEVER.

- SHE SAID YES.

SHE'S GONNA GO OUT
WITH YOUR BROTHER, MICHAEL.

[bell on door rings]

- KATHERINE.
HI.

- HI.
- I'M--I'M MICHAEL CRAIG.

IT'S SO NICE TO MEET YOU.

- HELLO, MICHAEL.

YOU--YOU'RE HERE
TO MEET ME?

- WELL, OF COURSE I AM.

- WHOA.
- PARDON?

- UH, IT'S JUST--
[laughs]

HOW ARE YOU HERE?

I MEAN,
I KNOW HOW YOU'RE HERE.

YOU--YOU WALKED IN,
YOU SAT AT THIS TABLE,

BUT HOW DID YOU COME HERE
TO MEET ME?

IT JUST SEEMS
KIND OF REMARKABLE, RIGHT?

- WELL, MARCIE SET THIS UP.

YOU KNOW MY SISTER, AMY?

- OH.

RIGHT, MARCIE.
OF COURSE.

JUST EXCUSE ME
FOR ONE SECOND.

- YEAH.

- HI.

- HI.
UM, WHO IS THAT?

- IT'S THE DATE
I TOLD YOU ABOUT.

- WHEN DID YOU TELL ME
ABOUT IT?

- TODAY, WHEN I CALLED YOU.
REMEMBER?

I SAID I WAS TALKING
TO MY FRIEND AMY,

AND SHE MENTIONED
HE BROTHER MIKE, WHO'S SINGLE.

- MARCIE, I WAS IN THE MIDDLE
OF A VERY HECTIC MEETING.

I'M SORRY.
I WASN'T EVEN LISTENING TO YOU.

THIS IS THE IMPORTANT THING
THAT YOU INTERRUPTED ME FOR?

- YEAH, I GUESS YOU'RE RIGHT.
IT'S NOT VERY IMPORTANT.

IT'S JUST YOUR FUTURE HUSBAND,
FAMILY, NICE HAPPINESS.

- I HAD THE LONGEST DAY.

I REALLY DON'T FEEL LIKE BEING
ON A DATE RIGHT NOW.

- IT'S JUST COFFEE.

CHUCK.
- COMING.

- RELAX.
YOU LOOK GREAT.

A LITTLE CAFFEINE,
A LITTLE SUGAR,

YOU'LL PERK RIGHT UP.

JUST TALK TO HIM.

HE'S A REALLY NICE GUY.

SMILE.

YEAH.

- YEAH, NO, NO, NO,
NO, NO.

SO INSTEAD, THE CLIENT
COMPLETELY CHANGES THEIR MIND

THE NIGHT
BEFORE THE PRESENTATION.

SO NOW, WE HAVE TO START OVER
AND WORK ALL NIGHT LONG.

- YEAH, I KNOW EXACTLY
WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

I WILL BE PREPARED FOR TRIAL,
AND THEN--BOOM--

MY CLIENT OR THE SOON-TO-BE-EX
WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN

DECIDE THAT THEY'RE NO LONGER
SATISFIED WITH THE TERMS

THAT EVERYBODY
ALREADY AGREED UPON.

- I KNOW. I KNOW.
- [laughs]

- HONESTLY, IT'S LIKE
WITH JOBS LIKE OURS,

IT'S LIKE WE NEED SOMETHING
TO LOOK FORWARD TO

AT THE END OF A LONG DAY.
- I AGREE.

I LIKE TO HOP INTO
A BUBBLE BATH, READ A GOOD BOOK.

I JUST STAY IN THERE
UNTIL I GET ALL PRUNE-Y.

[both laugh]

- OH.
- UH, WHAT ABOUT YOU?

WHAT DO YOU DO TO RELAX?

- I AM INTO VENTRILOQUISM.

- [laughs]

RIGHT.
WHA--WHAT IS IT, REALLY?

- [sighs]

KATHERINE, I WOULD LIKE YOU
TO MEET MIKEY, JR.

- MIKEY, JR.?

- HANDSOME LITTLE FELLOW,
ISN'T HE?

HE'S MY LITTLE BUDDY.

SAY HELLO TO KATHERINE.

HELLO, KATHERINE.

[chuckles]

HE'S GOT A LITTLE BIT
OF A LAZY EYE, BUT--

UH, THERE WE GO.

HE'S BACK.
- WOW.

- YEAH, YEAH,
HE'S MY GUY, AND--

AND WE DRESS ALIKE.
- I CAN SEE THAT.

SO WHO PICKED OUT THE HAT?
- HE DID.

SO ANYWAY,
LET ME THINK OF A JOKE,

IF I CAN THINK OF ONE.

I'VE BEEN FEELING
SO DENSE LATELY.

[laughs]

- VENTRILOQUISM, MARCIE.

VENTRILOQUISM.

[both laugh]

WHAT KIND OF MAN
BRINGS A DOLL ON A DATE?

- [snickers]

- OH, IT'S HILARIOUS.

- I'M SORRY.
IT'S JUST--

WELL, IT SEEMED SO PERFECT.

NEXT TIME,
I WILL BE MORE DISCERNING.

- NEXT TIME?
NO.

THERE'S NOT GONNA BE
A NEXT TIME.

- WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

MICHAEL IS YOUR DESTINY.

- PLEASE, DORA IS A KOOK,

AND THIS IS ALL NONSENSE.

- WELL, RICK AND I, WE--
- AND IF, FOR SOME REASON,

IT'S TRUE, DON'T YOU THINK
THAT I'M MEANT

TO FIND HIM ON MY OWN
WITHOUT YOUR HELP?

- SO YOU DO BELIEVE?

- I BELIEVE I JUST HAD
THE STRANGEST FIRST DATE

OF MY LIFE
THANKS TO YOU AND DORA.

- HEY, IT WAS A FIRST DATE,

YOUR FIRST
FIRST DATE IN MONTHS.

- NOT HELPING.
- ALL I'M SAYING IS

YOU HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE.

ONE MICHAEL DOWN.

ACTUALLY, 1 1/2
IF YOU COUNT MIKEY, JR.

[both laugh]

POPCORN?

- [sighs]

- YES, SIR, LET ME SEE
IF I CAN GET HER.

MAX BARNWORTH
IS ON LINE TWO.

HE THINKS HIS WIFE
KEYED ONE OF HIS CARS.

- I REALLY HAVE
TO GET OUT OF HERE.

I'M ALREADY CRAZY LATE.

JUST TELL HIM I LEFT EARLY
FOR A LUNCH MEETING

AND THAT I'LL CALL HIM
FIRST THING IN THE MORNING.

[indistinct chatter]

- HEY, LADY,
CAN I GIVE YOU A RIDE?

- EXCUSE ME?

OH, HEY.
I'M SORRY.

I THOUGHT WE WERE MEETING
AT THE CAFE AROUND THE CORNER.

- YEAH, WE WERE.
I HAD ANOTHER IDEA.

- OKAY.
- YOU'LL LIKE IT, I PROMISE.

- THANK YOU.
- YOU'RE WELCOME.

[toy squeaks]

[sighs]
MY DOG IS THE BIGGEST SLOB.

- [laughs]
- LEAVES HIS TOYS EVERYWHERE.

[chuckles]

- IT'S REALLY PRETTY HERE.

- YEAH.

I COME HERE
TO WRITE A LOT.

AND I FIGURE YOU WORK
80 HOURS A WEEK.

YOU COULD PROBABLY USE
THE FRESH AIR.

- WELL, YOU'RE RIGHT ABOUT THAT.
[laughs]

OKAY.

WHERE SHOULD WE START?
- [laughs]

WHAT WAS THAT, SIX SECONDS
OF UNINTERRUPTED RELAXATION?

- YOU REALIZE I'M A LAWYER.
I LITERALLY BILL MY TIME.

[laughs]
I CAN'T JUST DO NOTHING.

- NAH, THAT'S GOOD.

YOU ARE A STRICT TASKMASTER.

I SHOULD KEEP YOU ON SPEED DIAL
WHEN I HAVE WRITER'S BLOCK.

- YES, I'LL HAPPILY NAG YOU
NEXT TIME

YOU'RE BEHIND ON A DEADLINE,
BUT FOR RIGHT NOW,

WE HAVE A REHEARSAL DINNER
TO PLAN.

WHAT ARE YOUR IDEAS?
- WELL, I DID THINK

IT'D BE NICE
IF AT THE DINNER,

WE BOTH SHARE SOME STORIES

ABOUT OUR FRIENDSHIPS
WITH RICK AND MARCIE.

- LIKE A SPEECH?
- BASICALLY, YEAH.

- NO, I DON'T DO THAT.
I'M NOT GOOD AT THAT.

- YOU TALK FOR A LIVING.
- I ARGUE FOR A LIVING.

- AH.
OKAY, OKAY.

FAIR ENOUGH.

HOW ABOUT FOR NOW,
WE START WITH THE EASIER STUFF?

LIKE WHERE ARE WE THROWING
THIS PARTY?

AND MORE IMPORTANTLY,
WHAT ARE WE GONNA EAT?

- THAT, I HAVE IDEAS ABOUT.

[laughs]

UH, RICK AND MARCIE
LOVE THIS PLACE.

THEY ORDER TAKEOUT FROM THERE
AT LEAST TWICE A WEEK.

AND MARCIE WANTED TO USE
THIS ONE BAKERY FOR THE CAKE,

BUT IT WAS TOO EXPENSIVE,
BUT I FIGURE

A COUPLE DOZEN CUPCAKES
HAS TO BE CHEAPER

THAN A WEDDING CAKE.
- YEAH, THAT ALL SOUNDS AWESOME.

- GREAT.
FOOD.

DING.
both: DONE.

- WE ARE ON TOP OF IT.

- SO HOW'S MICHAEL?

- I'M SORRY, WHO?
- MICHAEL?

- UH, I'D PREFER
NOT TO GET STARTED ON THAT.

[laughs]
I CAN'T DO NICE THINGS

FOR MARCIE WHILE THINKING
ABOUT THE MONSTER SHE'S CREATED.

- UH-OH.

HOW MANY MICHAELS
HAVE THERE BEEN SO FAR?

- [sighs]

TECHNICALLY, THERE'S
ONLY BEEN 1 1/2 MICHAELS.

YOU DON'T WANNA KNOW.

- OKAY, IF WE CINCH
THE BODICE IN

A LITTLE BIT MORE,
IT'LL FIT SNUG LIKE YOU LIKE.

- SO I KNOW YOU SAID
NO MORE SETUPS,

BUT I BELIEVE IT IS MY DUTY
TO FIND YOUR MICHAEL.

- OH, REALLY?
HOW SO?

- KAT, EVERY DAY,
I SERVE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE,

AND MOST OF THEM
TAKE THEIR COFFEES TO GO,

WHICH MEANS I PUT THEIR NAMES
ON CUPS.

AND TODAY, A VERY HANDSOME GUY
NAMED MICHAEL

CAME IN AND ORDERED
A VANILLA LATTE, YOUR FAVORITE.

AND HE'S A LAWYER.

- YOU ASKED A CUSTOMER
WHAT HE DID FOR A LIVING?

- HE WAS FLATTERED
BY THE ATTENTION.

LOOK, STOP WORRYING
ABOUT MY BUSINESS ETIQUETTE

AND LISTEN TO ME.

HIS NAME IS MICHAEL,
HE'S A LAWYER,

AND HE ORDERED
YOUR FAVORITE DRINK.

THAT IS TWO BIG THINGS
IN COMMON.

- MARCIE, JUST BECAUSE
YOU'RE THE BRIDE

AND I'M THE MAID OF HONOR,
THAT DOESN'T MEAN

THAT YOU GET TO CONTROL
MY LIFE.

IF ANYTHING, I'M SUPPOSED
TO BE ORGANIZING YOURS.

[sighs]

FINE, ONE DATE
WITH MICHAEL THE LAWYER.

- GREAT.
- BUT THEN, THAT IS IT.

- KAT, I JUST--

I WANT YOU
TO HAVE A FULL LIFE.

YOU DESERVE MORE
THAN GREASY TAKEOUT

AND 80 HOURS A WEEK
IN AN OFFICE.

YOU DESERVE SOMEBODY WONDERFUL
WHO LOVES YOU--

BESIDES ME.

- HOW AM I SUPPOSED
TO PRETEND TO BE MAD AT YOU

WHEN YOU SAY NICE THINGS
LIKE THAT LOOKING LIKE
A PRINCESS?

- [laughs]

- MM--OH!
OW.

OW. OOH.

I HAVE A NOTE
TO REMIND YOU

ABOUT THE OUTSTANDING
STANFIELD ESTATE REQUEST.

- OKAY, THANKS.
I'LL GET IT TOGETHER.

[sighs]

GRACE, I NEED A CURRENT ADDRESS

[upbeat orchestration]

♪

- I AM SO GRATEFUL.

YOUR BOOK HAS COMPLETELY CHANGED
MY RELATIONSHIP.

- THANK YOU SO MUCH.

I HOPE YOU LIKE IT AS MUCH
AS YOU DID THE FIRST ONE.

- ABSOLUTELY.

- YOU KNOW, I READ
HIS FIRST BOOK AGAIN

FOR THE FIFTH TIME.
- IT'S SO ROMANTIC.

- YOU KNOW, IF I EVER
GET MARRIED

AND THEN DIE TRAGICALLY,
I'D WANT MY HUSBAND

TO WRITE A BOOK
AS A TRIBUTE TO MY LIFE.

- WAIT, THE--THE BOOK
IS ABOUT HIS WIFE?

- THE DIARY?
OF COURSE.

HE READ HER DIARY
AFTER SHE DIED,

AND HE REALIZED
THAT ALL THE THINGS

HE THOUGHT HE WAS DOING WRONG,
SHE DIDN'T CARE ABOUT--

WHEN HE WORKED LATE,
WHEN THEY HAD A FIGHT--

BECAUSE ALL
THAT REALLY MATTERS...

both: IS THE LITTLE THINGS.

- MM-HMM.
- KATHERINE.

HEY.
HEY, COME UP HERE.

- GO.

- WOW.
- SHE'S SO LUCKY.

- YEAH, I'D SAY SO.

- HI.
THANKS SO MUCH FOR COMING.

- OH, SURE.

WE--BEST MAN,
MAID OF HONOR,

WE HAVE TO STICK TOGETHER.

- DO YOU WANT ME
TO SIGN YOUR BOOK?

- OH, UH, THAT'S OKAY.

I DIDN'T ACTUALLY
BUY ONE YET.

- NO WORRIES.
ON THE HOUSE.

- OH.
UH, THAT'S OKAY.

- I INSIST.

- [laughs]

THANKS A LOT.
- ANY TIME.

I'M DONE HERE
IN ABOUT TEN MINUTES.

STICK AROUND
AND HAVE A COFFEE WITH ME?

HERE YOU GO.
- THANK YOU.

- OF COURSE.

- YOUR FANS LOVE YOU.

THE WOMEN IN LINE
COULD NOT STOP GUSHING.

- THAT'S NICE TO HEAR.

- THEY WERE TALKING ABOUT
HOW YOUR FIRST NOVEL WAS ABOUT--

- MY WIFE?

- YES.

I DIDN'T REALIZE.

I'M SORRY.

- THANK YOU.

- YOU MUST'VE REALLY LOVED HER.

- BUT YOU SEE
MARRIED PEOPLE EVERY DAY

WHO DON'T LIKE EACH OTHER.

- I GUESS I FORGET
THAT THEY WERE ONCE IN LOVE

ENOUGH TO COMMIT
THEIR LIVES TO EACH OTHER,

SINCE BY THE TIME
I MEET THEM,

THEY'RE USUALLY PRETTY AWFUL.

- I-I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU GO OUT
ON A DATE AFTER A DAY LIKE THAT.

- MM--WELL, THAT'S JUST IT.
I DON'T.

- WELL, MAYBE
THAT'S ABOUT TO CHANGE.

- OH, IS IT?
- YEAH.

THERE'S A MICHAEL OUT THERE
WAITIN' FOR YOU.

- WELL, I'M GLAD
YOU'RE ENJOYING THIS SO MUCH.

- I'M GLAD TOO.

- HI.

I'M ON MY WAY
TO A MEETING,

BUT I'M WORRIED ABOUT
THE GIFT BAG COST.

- DON'T WORRY, I'M ON IT.

- DID YOU MENTION MAKING THEM
WITH TOM YET?

- IT'S FUNNY
THAT YOU SHOULD MENTION TOM.

I ACTUALLY
JUST RAN INTO HIM.

- WHERE?
- UH, HIS BOOK SIGNING.

- HE DIDN'T MENTION
ANY BOOK SIGNING.

- MARCIE, YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN
THESE WOMEN IN LINE.

THEY WERE ALL MOONING
OVER HIM.

- HE IS GOOD-LOOKING.

- I-I MEAN, I GUESS.

- GOOD LUCK
TO THOSE WOMEN THOUGH.

THEY'LL BE DISAPPOINTED
IF THEY'RE INTERESTED IN TOM.

- REALLY?
- LISTEN.

HE PUTS ON A GREAT FACE,
BUT HE'S STILL DEVASTATED

OVER HIS WIFE'S DEATH.

AND FORGET ABOUT A RELATIONSHIP.

HE TOLD RICK IT MAY BE YEARS
BEFORE HE EVEN DATES.

- OH.
WHICH REMINDS ME.

YOU HAVE A DATE
WITH YOUR NEW MICHAEL TOMORROW.

- MARCIE, I ACTUALLY
HAVE TO GO.

- OH, REMEMBER,
THIS MAY BE YOUR TRUE LOVE.

- OH, OOPS,
YOU'RE BREAKING UP.

I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER.
BYE.

NICE TO MEET YOU.

THANKS, CHIEF.

- JUST TO BE CLEAR,
I DON'T NORMALLY

LET MY ROOMMATES

WHO ORDER LATTES FROM HER.

WELL, THAT'S GOOD

BECAUSE I NORMALLY
DON'T ALLOW MYSELF

TO BE SET UP
WITH THE ROOMMATE

OF A NEIGHBORHOOD BARISTA, SO--

- OH, WELL, THAT'S SETTLED.
- YEAH.

YEAH, I SAID NO ICE.

SO LET'S TRY THAT AGAIN.
- SURE.

- NICE ONE.

- THANKS, HOWARD.

- NO PROBLEM, KATHERINE.

- SO YOU ARE A LAWYER
AS WELL.

- UH, I DID MY YEAR
WITH THE D.A.'S OFFICE.

PAY STUNK.
ALWAYS FIGHTING A LOSING BATTLE.

NOW, I'M WINNING
MOST OF MY CASES,

AND I'M JUST--
I'M RAKING IN THAT DOUGH.

SO GUILTY PEOPLE WILL PAY
THROUGH THE NOSE

TO GET THEIR NAMES CLEARED.

TA-DA.

THANK YOU, BUDDY.

SO DO YOU LIKE MUSSELS?

YEAH, I KNOW
I'M SUPPOSED TO LEAVE A NOTE,

BUT I WAS IN A RUSH.

THAT'S WHAT INSURANCE IS FOR.

BESIDES, PARKING AN SUV
IN A COMPACT SPOT,

YOU'RE BOUND TO GET DINGED.

IT WAS STUPID.

GARCON.

I ACTUALLY JUST STARTED
AT MY NEW FIRM.

I DIDN'T EXACTLY GET FIRED
FROM MY LAST JOB.

I QUIT.

I WAS REALLY INSULTED
BY THE RESTRAINING ORDER.

- CHECK, PLEASE.
THANK YOU.

- DON'T FORGET.
COME IN, GET YOUR COFFEE.

- I WILL.
- ALL RIGHT.

- MARCIE, YOU'VE INTRODUCED ME
TO MY LAST MICHAEL.

NEVER AGAIN.

- OH, NO.
THIS ISN'T GONNA BE GOOD.

KAT.

- HE WAS A TERRIBLE
HUMAN BEING, MARCIE.

I KNOW THAT YOU DON'T APPROVE
OF MY JOB,

BUT IS THAT REALLY
HOW YOU SEE ME?

AS MORALLY REPUGNANT
AS THAT CREEP?

- NO, HE WAS SO CHARMING
AT THE COFFEE SHOP.

IT JUST--
IT SEEMED SO PERFECT.

- RIGHT, AND YOU TALKED TO HIM
FOR WHAT, TWO MINUTES?

AND JUST BECAUSE HE'S A LAWYER
AND WE BOTH LIKE VANILLA LATTES,

SOMEHOW WE'RE MEANT TO BE?

- BUT HIS NAME IS--
- MICHAEL?

MICHAEL.
HIS NAME IS MICHAEL,

AND A MICHAEL
IS MY DESTINY?

- WELL, YEAH.
- WELL, IF IT'S THAT EASY,

MARCIE, THEN MAYBE MY SOUL MATE
IS WALKING ACROSS THE STREET.

HI, EXCUSE ME,
IS YOUR NAME MICHAEL?

- WHAT? NO.
- KATHERINE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

- OH, YOU STARTED THIS, MARCIE.
COME ON, LET'S FIND HIM.

- NO, STOP.

WHAT...
- OH, HI, EXCUSE ME.

YOUR NAME
MUST BE MICHAEL, RIGHT?

BECAUSE I'M SUPPOSED
TO FALL IN LOVE WITH A MICHAEL.

- I-I'M SORRY.
SHE'S NOT WELL.

- UH, MICHAEL?

- WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
- MICHAEL!

OH, MICHAEL?
- KAT, I BEG OF YOU.

I HAVE CUSTOMERS.
- DON'T YOU GET IT, MARCIE?

HE'S NOT HERE.

HE'S NOT ANYWHERE
BECAUSE HE DOESN'T EXIST.

- KATIE?

KATIE BIXBY?

I-I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU
SINCE HIGH SCHOOL.

YOU LOOK GREAT.

- WHOA.

- OH, SORRY.
I'M BEING RUDE.

I'M MICHAEL BREAKSTONE.
- I KNOW.

KAT'S HIGH SCHOOL BOYFRIEND.

I'M MARCIE.

- UM, WELL,
IT'S NICE TO MEET YOU.

- MICHAEL, WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

I HAVE A LUNCH WITH A CLIENT
DOWN THE STREET.

I WORK AT AN INVESTMENT FIRM
IN TOWN.

- YOU LIVE HERE NOW?
- YEAH, YEAH.

THREE YEARS NOW.
WHAT ABOUT YOU?

- YEAH.
- IT'S DESTINY.

- UH, DO YOU HAVE
A FAMILY?

- OH, NO, NO.
IT'S JUST STILL ME.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?
- NO, NO.

NOT MARRIED EITHER.
- DESTINY.

- UM, LISTEN, I HAVE TO GET
TO THIS LUNCH MEETING,

BUT I'D LOVE TO SIT DOWN
AND CATCH UP.

- YEAH, THAT'D BE GREAT.

THERE.
NOW, YOU HAVE HER NUMBER.

- THANK YOU.

[laughs]

WELL, IT WAS REALLY GREAT
TO SEE YOU.

UH, PLEASED TO MEET YOU.

- BYE.

THAT WAS AMAZING.

- WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT LATER.
I'M LATE FOR A MEETING.

- BYE.

- HI.

[sighs]
I KNOW, I KNOW.

I TOOK A TWO-HOUR LUNCH,
AND I AM CRAZY LATE.

- MAX BARNWORTH
IS IN THE CONFERENCE ROOM...

- OF COURSE HE IS.
- AND SO IS JACK.

GO.

- [sighs]

MR. BARNWORTH, JACK,
I'M SO SORRY I'M LATE.

- NICE OF YOU
TO JOIN US.

LET'S JUST GET THIS MOVING.

MAX WANTS TO LOOK INTO A SHORT
SALE ON THE CONDO IN FLORIDA.

- THE ONE
YOUR MOTHER-IN-LAW LIVES IN?

- THAT WOMAN
HAS ALWAYS HATED ME.

AND IF MILLIE'S GONNA TRY
TO TAKE MY CARS,

I CAN SELL
HER MOTHER'S PLACE.

IF MILLIE'S SO LONELY,
SHE CAN HAVE

HER MOTHER MOVE IN
WITH HER.

- MR. BARNWORTH, I KNOW
IT SEEMED VERY PERSONAL

WHEN YOUR WIFE TRIED
TO CLAIM YOUR CAR COLLECTION,

BUT THIS IS A HUMAN BEING
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT.

- [clears throat]

- RIGHT, ABSOLUTELY
WE CAN LOOK INTO THIS.

- [sighs]
I HAVE A CONFERENCE CALL.

I CAN TRUST YOU WITH THIS,
RIGHT, KATHERINE?

- OF COURSE, JACK.

- LET ME TALK
TO YOU, MAX.

- SO LET'S GET STARTED.

HI.

THAT I'M CALLING YOU.

I KNOW THAT TECHNICALLY

YOU DIDN'T GIVE ME
YOUR PHONE NUMBER.

- N-NO, I-I'M GLAD THAT MARCIE
GAVE YOU MY NUMBER.

- GREAT, WELL, I WAS WONDERING

IF YOU'RE FREE FOR DINNER
TOMORROW NIGHT.

AND WE COULD CATCH UP
AND LAUGH ABOUT OLD TIMES.

- I AM FREE.
THAT WOULD BE REALLY NICE.

- GREAT, I'LL TEXT YOU

- PERFECT.

LOOKING FORWARD TO IT.

ANN DONNELLY HERE.
- ANN.

THERE'S A JOKE HERE
ABOUT ESTATE LAWYERS

WHO CALL,
BUT I CAN'T THINK OF IT.

- WELL, YOU'RE A WRITER NOW.
YOU COME UP WITH IT.

- IT'S GOOD
TO HEAR YOUR VOICE.

IT'S BEEN...

- ALMOST TWO YEARS.

HOW'S L.A.?

- GREAT WEATHER.

TO WHAT DO I OWE
THE UNEXPECTED CALL?

- WELL, I HAVE SOMETHING
FOR YOU, TOM.

YOU'LL NEED TO BE HOME
TO TAKE RECEIPT OF IT.

- AM I BEING SUED?
- [chuckles]

NOT THAT I'M AWARE OF.

AT ANY RATE, THIS PACKAGE
WILL ARRIVE ON TUESDAY.

- THAT'S THE SECOND ANNIVERSARY
OF JILL'S DEATH.

WHAT IS IT?

- HONESTLY, TOM, I DON'T KNOW.

- I'LL WAIT FOR IT.

TAKE CARE.

- YOU TOO.
THANKS.

- COME ON.
WE GOTTA GO OPEN THESE RSVPs.

HELP ME OUT.

OOH, NICE.
CAROLINE AND ANDY ARE COMING.

- AWESOME.
THE O'BRIENS ARE COMING.

MY MOM DIDN'T THINK
THEY'D MAKE THE TRIP.

- THE CHIEF AND HIS WIFE.

- MR. AND MRS. FELLOWS?

WHO'S THAT?
- BOB AND DIANE.

MY PARENTS' FRIENDS.
- OH.

HAVE I EVEN MET THEM?

- HEY, WHAT IS
THE PROBLEM HERE?

ALL OF OUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY
ARE COMING TO OUR WEDDING.

WE'RE VERY POPULAR.
- YEAH.

WE'RE SO POPULAR
THAT THIS WEDDING

IS GOING TO COST A LOT MORE
THAN WE PLANNED.

- BUT WE PLANNED FOR THAT.
WE HAVE A CUSHION.

HONEY.

IT'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

- YEAH.

- [sighs]

- [sighs]

[clears throat]

[rings doorbell]
[knocks at door]

- JUST A MINUTE.

- MM-HMM.

- [hums]

- HI.
- HI.

- [sighs]

- AW, YOU DIDN'T
HAVE TO BRING THAT.

- NO, IT'S AN OCCASION.
- YEAH.

- WOW.
YOU'RE COOKING?

I REMEMBER YOU TRIED TO DO THAT
FOR ME ONCE IN HIGH SCHOOL.

IT DID NOT WORK OUT
SO WELL.

- YEAH, WELL, A LOT CAN CHANGE
IN 10 YEARS.

COME ON IN.

- COOL PLACE.

- ALL RIGHT,
YOU READY FOR THIS?

- I DON'T KNOW, I'M KIND OF
SCARED GIVEN THE HISTORY.

- IT'S A LOT BETTER
THAN BURNT SPAGHETTI.

I PROMISE.
CAREFUL, IT'S HOT.

- OKAY.

IT'S REALLY GOOD.
- YEAH.

SO DOES THE LAWYER
EXONERATE ME

FROM MY PAST COOKING CRIMES?

- ABSOLUTELY.
ACQUITTED.

- SO KATIE BIXBY
BECAME A LAWYER,

JUST LIKE SHE SAID
SHE WOULD.

DID YOU GET INTO HARVARD LAW
LIKE YOU PLANNED?

- I DID, ACTUALLY.

- I CAN'T SAY
THAT I'M SURPRISED.

VALEDICTORIAN.

CLASS PRESIDENT.
- OKAY.

WHAT ABOUT YOU?
WHAT DID YOU DO AFTER COLLEGE?

- OH, I GOT MY MBA
AT CORNELL.

JUST ABOUT AS FANCY
AS HARVARD.

- AND YOU LEARNED HOW TO COOK
SOMEWHERE IN THERE TOO?

- OUI, OUI.
I AM A RENAISSANCE MAN.

- ESPECIALLY IF YOU CAN
STILL EAT

THREE ORDERS OF CHICKEN WINGS
IN ONE SITTING.

- [laughs]

I WAS A CLASSY KID, HUH?

THERE YOU GO.

I'M REALLY GLAD
I RAN INTO YOU, KATIE.

HERE IS TO NEW BEGINNINGS.

- AND PLEASANT SURPRISES.

[indistinct chatter]

UM, HEY, GUYS.
IS EVERYTHING OKAY?

- EVERYTHING'S FINE.

GOOD TO SEE YOU, KAT.

I GOTTA RUN.

- WHOA, WHOA, WHOA,
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA.

WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?
- NOTHING.

JUST--
[sighs]

WE MAY NOT GET TO GO
TO PARIS ON OUR HONEYMOON.

- WHAT?
WHY?

- WELL, I HAD
ALL THESE IDEAS

ABOUT HOW TO BE CREATIVE
AT THE WEDDING

SO THAT WE COULD DO BOTH,
BUT RICK IS JUST--

- OKAY, OKAY, I'M SURE
IT'S ALL GONNA WORK OUT.

- YEAH.

FORGET ABOUT THAT.

HOW WAS YOUR DATE?

- OH, IT WAS--

IT WAS
A REALLY NICE NIGHT.

- GOOD.

I CAN'T WAIT
TO TELL DORA.

- OKAY.

HOW ABOUT I GO
ON A SECOND DATE,

YOU DON'T GET AHEAD
OF YOURSELF,

AND WE FIND A SOLUTION
TO YOUR PROBLEM?

LET'S MAKE A LIST.
- FINE.

- MR. BARNWORTH
ON LINE TWO.

[phone rings]

- [sighs]

THIS IS KATHERINE.
- KATHERINE.

WHO IS THIS CHARLATAN
REAL ESTATE AGENT

YOU PUT ME IN CONTACT WITH?

- MR. BARNWORTH,
PLEASE CALM DOWN.

- I'M HERE TO SEE KATHERINE.
I'M TOM STANFIELD.

SHE SHOULD BE EXPECTING ME.
- YES.

SHE IS ON A PHONE CALL
AT THE MOMENT,

BUT GO ON IN.

- THANK YOU.
- MM-HMM.

- HIS APPRAISAL IS RIDICULOUS.

- I KNOW THAT THE CONDO
IS WORTH MORE--

- YEAH, I UNDERSTAND THAT,
BUT PLEASE, KATHERINE,

I'M NOT ABOUT
TO HAVE MY POCKET PICKED.

- HE BARELY NEEDS ME
FOR THIS.

- SO YOU CALLED
AND SAID TO COME BY?

- YEAH.

SO IT TURNS OUT
THAT MARCIE AND RICK

MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO GO TO PARIS
ON THEIR HONEYMOON,

SO I WAS THINKING WE CHANGE UP
THE REHEARSAL DINNER,

BRING PARIS TO THEM.

- DO YOU NEED
TO TALK TO THAT GUY?

- UM, WHY DON'T YOU

LOOK OVER MY NOTES
WHILE I FINISH THIS UP?

MR. BARNWORTH?
- THIS--

- MR. BARNWORTH?
- ARE YOU RAISING

YOUR VOICE AT ME?
- HI.

SORRY, I DIDN'T MEAN
TO RAISE MY VOICE.

- KATHERINE, HE'S ASKING
AT LEAST 30% LESS

THAN THAT PROPERTY IS WORTH.

- MR. BARNWORTH,
I KNOW THAT.

- WELL THEN,
WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

- THE PROBLEM IS
IT'S MY JOB

TO GET YOU WHAT YOU WANT
OUT OF THIS SETTLEMENT,

BUT YOU CAN EITHER
HAVE IT FAST

OR YOU CAN
HAVE IT RIGHT.

SO BEFORE YOU DO SOMETHING
YOU REGRET,

MAY I PLEASE SUGGEST
THAT YOU TAKE A DAY

TO THINK THINGS THROUGH
BEFORE WE PROCEED?

- ALL RIGHT, I GET IT,
BUT I'M NOT SETTLING FOR THIS.

CALL ME TOMORROW.
- UNDERSTOOD.

WE'LL SPEAK TOMORROW.
- YES, KATHERINE.

- [sighs]
SO THE PARTY.

- YOU'RE READING MY BOOK.

- OH, UH, YEAH.

I STARTED READING IT
AFTER THE SIGNING.

EVERYONE WAS TALKING ABOUT IT.
I WAS CURIOUS.

CAN I JUST SAY,
I THINK THAT IT WAS

INCREDIBLY BRAVE OF YOU
TO WRITE IT?

I MEAN, IT'S DIFFICULT ENOUGH
TO TELL SOMEONE

HOW YOU FEEL,
BUT TO TELL THE WHOLE WORLD?

- WHEN YOU LOVE SOMEONE
THAT MUCH, IT'S NOT BRAVE.

IT'S NECESSARY.

- IT'S A NEW EXPERIENCE
HAVING SOMEONE SIT IN THAT CHAIR

AND TALK ABOUT LOVE
AND NOT SPITE.

I DON'T KNOW
HOW YOU'LL EVER GET OVER

LOSING SOMEONE
YOU LOVE THAT MUCH.

- YOU NEVER REALLY
GET OVER IT.

[phone rings]

- HELLO?
KATHERINE BIXBY'S OFFICE.

- HI, IS KATE THERE, PLEASE?

- I BELIEVE
SHE'S IN A MEETING,

BUT LET ME SEE
IF I CAN GET HER.

WOULD YOU HOLD, PLEASE?

KATHERINE, I'M SORRY
TO INTERRUPT,

BUT I HAVE MICHAEL BREAKSTONE
ON LINE THREE.

- OH.

TELL HIM I'LL CALL HIM
RIGHT BACK.

- ANOTHER MICHAEL.

I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION
YOU THOUGHT THAT WAS HOOEY.

- IT IS.
I'M CERTAIN THAT IT IS.

THIS MICHAEL, HE WAS ACTUALLY
MY HIGH SCHOOL BOYFRIEND.

I RAN INTO HIM ON THE STREET
THE OTHER DAY.

- SOUNDS LIKE DESTINY.
- YOU SOUND LIKE MARCIE.

- I WONDER.

IS THIS HOW PEOPLE LIKE US
END UP,

WITH OUR HIGH SCHOOL
SWEETHEARTS?

REUNITED?

OLDER?
WISER?

- WOW.

MICHAEL, THAT'S...

- I'M JUST GLAD
THAT I RAN INTO YOU.

THAT'S ALL.
- I'M REALLY GLAD

I RAN INTO YOU TOO.

- YOU HAVE
A LITTLE THING THERE.

I WOULD HOPE
THAT YOU WERE HAPPY

TO HAVE RUN INTO ME
THAT DAY.

YOU WERE LITERALLY
LOOKING FOR MICHAELS.

- YOU HEARD THAT?
- OH, YEAH.

PEOPLE TWO TOWNS OVER
HEARD YOU, OKAY?

- OH.

OH, NO.

- YOU CARE TO EXPLAIN?

- UM...

NO.

THANKS FOR ASKING.

- OH, COME ON.

CHICKEN.
TELL ME.

- OKAY, FINE.

MARCIE'S CRAZY MANICURIST
FANCIES HERSELF

SOMEWHAT OF
A SO-CALLED MATCHMAKER,

AND SHE PREDICTED
THAT I WOULD FIND MY MATCH

AND HIS NAME
WOULD BE MICHAEL.

- REALLY?
- IT SOUNDS STUPID.

I KNOW.

MARCIE HAD SET ME UP WITH
ALL OF THESE TERRIBLE MICHAELS,

AND I WAS KIND OF MAD
AT HER THAT DAY,

AND, WELL,
THEN YOU APPEARED.

- [exhales]
WOW.

- I DON'T SEE
WHAT THE BIG DEAL IS.

- THE BIG DEAL
IS THAT PEOPLE MARKED

ON THE LITTLE CARDS
THAT THEY WANTED SALMON.

- SO THEY'LL GET TILAPIA.

IT'LL SAVE US
$5 PER PERSON.

HOW ELSE ARE WE SUPPOSED TO FIND
CUTS IN THE BUDGET

SO THAT WE CAN HAVE A WEDDING
AND A HONEYMOON?

- FINDING CUTS IN THE BUDGET?

THIS IS OUR WEDDING, MARCIE.

YOU'RE TREATING OUR WEDDING

LIKE A BARGAIN BASEMENT
GARAGE SALE.

YOU DON'T EVEN SEEM EXCITED
ABOUT IT ANYMORE.

IT'S LIKE YOU GOTTA GET
THROUGH THE WEDDING

TO GET TO THE GRAND PRIZE,
THE HONEYMOON.

- THAT IS NOT FAIR.
- WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT?

THERE'S ONE SIMPLE WAY
YOU CAN GO TO PARIS.

JUST CALL OFF THE WEDDING.

DON'T BOTHER FEEDING
AND ENTERTAINING

ALL THOSE ANNOYING FRIENDS
AND FAMILY WHO LOVE YOU,

THAT JUST WANNA SPEND
YOUR SPECIAL DAY WITH YOU.

FORGET THEM AND GO.

EAT BREAD AND CHEESE,
AND WEAR A BERET

BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT'S TRULY
IMPORTANT TO YOU.

- RICK.
- I'M OUTTA HERE.

- OH, HEY, RICK.
I JUST GOT HOME.

- RICK.

[door opens]

WHAT HAVE I DONE?

- DO YOU WANNA
TALK ABOUT IT?

OKAY.

- [cries]
- OH.

- [sighs]
IF I WERE HIM,

I WOULDN'T WANT
TO MARRY ME EITHER.

I'M HORRIBLE.

- YOU ARE NOT HORRIBLE.

MAYBE YOU GOT
A LITTLE CARRIED AWAY.

SOME BRIDES GO CRAZY
OVER THE WEDDING.

YOU CHOSE THE HONEYMOON.

- I THOUGHT
WE COULD HAVE EVERYTHING.

I DIDN'T REALIZE
WHAT IT'D LOOK LIKE.

HE'S RIGHT.

PICKING APART OUR WEDDING.

BUT I NEVER THOUGHT
THAT HE'D THINK

I DIDN'T CARE
ABOUT MARRYING HIM.

THAT IS ALL
I CARE ABOUT.

FORGET ABOUT THE PARTY,
THE TRIP.

I JUST--

I JUST WANT TO START MY LIFE
WITH RICK.

- JUST GIVE HIM THE NIGHT
TO COOL OFF,

AND THEN EVERYTHING
WILL BE FINE.

RICK LOVES YOU.
YOU JUST HAD A FIGHT.

HE'LL CALL TOMORROW,
FIRST THING.

I'M SURE OF IT.
- I HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT.

[dog whining]

I'M SORRY, BUDDY.

RICK'S IN A FUNK.

GIRL TROUBLES.
GONNA TALK TO ME ABOUT IT?

- THERE'S NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT.

MARCIE CARES MORE
ABOUT GOING TO PARIS

THAN SHE DOES
ABOUT MARRYING ME.

- OKAY, THAT'S RIDICULOUS,
AND YOU KNOW IT.

- IS IT? SHE'S RUSHING THROUGH
THE WHOLE WEDDING.

IT'S LIKE SHE DOESN'T EVEN
CARE ABOUT IT ANYMORE.

[dog whines]

BUT I THOUGHT WOMEN

WERE SUPPOSED TO BE
ALL ABOUT THE WEDDING.

- THEY ARE,

SO BE HAPPY MARCIE ISN'T
A TYPICAL BRIDEZILLA.

- MAYBE SHE JUST SAID YES
SO SHE COULD

GET A HONEYMOON
OUT OF THE WHOLE THING.

- OH, OKAY, SO I SEE WE'RE BEING
PERFECTLY REASONABLE RIGHT NOW,

AND IT'S A GOOD TIME
TO TALK THEN?

DUDE, YOU'RE BUMMIN' OUT

- THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR MEETING ME.

- OF COURSE.

SO IS MARCIE AS BAD
AS RICK?

- WELL, THEY HAVEN'T TALKED
IN TWO DAYS.

IS RICK ALSO DOUBLING UP
ON DESSERTS AND CRYING NONSTOP?

- WELL, NO.
HE'S A WRECK, THOUGH,

IN A QUIETER,
LOWER-CALORIES WAY.

- SEE, THEY JUST HAVE SO MUCH
GOING ON RIGHT NOW,

THEY'RE ACTING CRAZY.

MARCIE SAYS SHE DOESN'T
EVEN CARE ABOUT THE HONEYMOON.

ALL SHE WANTS
IS TO BE MARRIED TO RICK.

- THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT I'M TRYING TO TELL HIM,

BUT HE DOESN'T LISTEN.

[sighs]

I GUESS WE DON'T NEED
TO DISCUSS

THE PARISIAN-THEMED REHEARSAL
DINNER ANYMORE, DO WE?

IT'S A SHAME.

IF RICK AND MARCIE
HAD JUST KNOWN

THAT WE WERE GONNA BRING
PARIS TO THEM,

AND NOW...

- AND NOW...

- JUST TELL ME
WHAT I HAVE TO DO, BOSS.

- DO YOU THINK THAT YOU CAN GET
RICK'S CELL PHONE

UM, WE'RE STILL GOOD

COME UP FOR MARCIE'S WEDDING.

CAN WE RESCHEDULE?
- SURE.

YEAH, YOU GUYS
GOT SOME DRESSES TO TRY ON

OR FLOWERS TO PICK UP?
- SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

I'LL CALL YOU TOMORROW.
- YEAH, SOUNDS GOOD.

- OKAY, BYE.

[phone beeps]

- MARCIE, YOU JUST
GOT A TEXT,

IF THAT EVEN IS THE SOUND
THAT YOUR PHONE MAKES

WHEN YOU GET A TEXT.

OKAY, THOSE COUNTER-TOPS
ARE CLEAN.

YOU NEED TO STEP AWAY.
WHAT IF IT'S FROM RICK?

- IT WON'T BE.
HE HATES ME.

I BECAME A--
[sighs]

A HONEYMOON-ZILLA.

HEY.

[sighs]

IT'S FROM RICK.
- NO WAY.

- HE WANTS ME TO MEET HIM
AT THE PARK AT 8:00 P.M.

HE SAYS TO DRESS NICELY.

- I JUST GOT
THE SAME MESSAGE.

- FROM RICK?
- YEAH.

- OH.

YOU DON'T THINK
HE'S GONNA BREAK UP WITH ME

AND WANTS YOU THERE
FOR MORAL SUPPORT, DO YOU?

- DO I THINK THAT HE'S
ASKING YOU TO DRESS NICELY

AND BRING A FRIEND
TO YOUR OWN DUMPING?

NO, I DO NOT
THINK THAT.

GET YOUR APRON OFF.
LET'S GO.

WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME.

- CHUCK, DO YOU MIND
CLOSING UP TONIGHT?

- I'D BE HONORED, MARCIE.

- OKAY, LET'S GO.

- DO YOU SEE HIM? DO YOU THINK
WE'RE LIKE ALMOST THERE?

- I THINK WE'RE ALMOST THERE.

- DID HE TELL YOU WHERE TO GO?
THIS IS...

- JUST--JUST KEEP
GOING STRAIGHT.

EVER IN LOVE
IN THE FIRST PLACE.

BUT I CAN TELL BY THE WAY
THAT YOU FIGHT

THAT YOU AND MILLIE
ONCE LOVED EACH OTHER VERY MUCH.

SO DO YOU REALLY
WANT TO MAKE

YOUR 88-YEAR-OLD
MOTHER-IN-LAW HOMELESS

OR DIG UP ACRES
OF LANDSCAPING?

- TOO FAR?
- IT IS A BOLD CLAIM TO MAKE.

- THAT WOMAN JUST GETS ME SO...
- I KNOW.

- [sighs]
I'LL THINK THINGS OVER.

- [sighs]

- THANK YOU.
- THANK YOU.

- MR. BARNWORTH. HEADED OUT?
- YES.

- LORI HAS YOUR PARKING
VALIDATION READY.

- THANK YOU.

- THANK YOU, MR. BARNWORTH.

- SIT DOWN.

WHAT WAS THAT?
- UH, WHAT WAS WHAT?

- KATHERINE, YOU'RE A DIVORCE
ATTORNEY, NOT A THERAPIST.

WE MAKE MONEY
WHEN THEY GET A DIVORCE,

NOT WHEN THEY MAKE NICE
AND STOP DIVIDING THEIR ASSETS.

- AH, I'M SORRY.
I JUST THOUGHT THAT--

- IT'S NOT YOUR JOB
TO HAVE A PERSONAL OPINION

ABOUT WHAT OUR CLIENTS WANT.

IF MR. BARNWORTH
WANTS TO PAY SOMEONE

TO MOVE HIS LANDSCAPING
ONE SHOVEL FULL OF DIRT

AT A TIME,
THEN WE MAKE IT HAPPEN.

ARE WE CLEAR?
- WE ARE CLEAR.

- AND I SHOULDN'T
HAVE TO BABY-SIT

YOUR CLIENT
IN THE MORNING EITHER.

AND WHILE WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT MISTAKES,

MR. FILLMORE'S ATTORNEYS
ARE STILL WAITING

FOR THE REVISED AGREEMENT.
- I SENT THAT ON FRIDAY.

- NO, WHAT YOU SENT THEM
WAS AN OLD AGREEMENT.

KATHERINE.

PLEASE.

STOP WASTING VALUABLE TIME
WITH CARELESS MISTAKES.

WE WERE JUST
TALKING PARTNERSHIP.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S BEEN
GOING ON WITH YOU,

BUT YOU'VE LOST FOCUS.

NO MORE OF THIS.

POODLES, THE CAR COLLECTION--

DIGGING UP THE GARDENS.

THEY BELONG ON THE PROPERTIES.

I DON'T WANT THE CARS.

- REALLY?
- YOU'RE RIGHT.

I DON'T DRIVE THEM.

AND YOU LOVE THEM.

I DON'T LOVE THEM.

MORE TIME WITH YOUR CLIENTS?

- LUTHER HAS SLEPT

I DON'T WANNA CHANGE THAT.

- BUT LULU SLEPT AT YOUR FEET

- BUT WE CAN'T
SPLIT THEM UP, MAX.

THEY LOVE EACH OTHER.
- BUT THEY FIGHT ALL THE TIME.

- THEY'RE JUST TRYING

THEY DON'T MEAN IT.

I THINK SOMETIMES

LULU FEELS THAT LUTHER

CARES MORE ABOUT HIS RAWHIDE

THAN HE DOES ABOUT HER.

- SHE'D BE CRAZY TO THINK
SUCH A THING.

I THINK LUTHER DOESN'T ALWAYS
KNOW HOW TO SAY--

I MEAN, SHOW
HOW HE FEELS.

- THAT'S ENOUGH.

MR. AND MRS. BARNWORTH,

THIS ISN'T MARRIAGE COUNSELING.

IT'S A DIVORCE COURT,

- OH.
WELL, NOW, YOU KNOW.

- LOVE IS NOT JUST ROMANCE.

IT IS NOT JUST

CHECK ON THE QUARTERLIES.

- SURE.

SO...
- SO...

I DIDN'T COME HERE

BUT I DID COME HERE
TO BE HONEST.

- OKAY.

- I GOT PRETTY SWEPT UP
IN THIS WHOLE MICHAELS IDEA.

AND I TRIED TO MAKE
YOU FIT INTO THAT,

AND THAT'S UNFAIR TO YOU.

MY WHOLE LIFE,

WHEN IT CAME TO SCHOOL
OR MY JOB,

I ALWAYS WENT AFTER EVERYTHING
THAT I WANTED

WITHOUT HESITATION OR WORRY.

- OF COURSE.
LOOK AT YOUR CAREER.

- WHY SHOULD LOVE
BE TREATED ANY DIFFERENTLY?

I THINK IF I'M GONNA BE TRUE
TO MYSELF,

I NEED TO APPROACH LOVE
WITH THE SAME KIND

OF COMMITMENT AND PASSION

AND NO FEAR OF FAILURE.

- KATIE, IN EVERY RELATIONSHIP,

I MEAN, THERE'S UPS
AND DOWNS AND--AND--

- BUT IF WE'RE
GONNA BE HONEST HERE,

THE TRUTH IS
THAT WE BOTH KNOW

WE'RE JUST NOT RIGHT
FOR EACH OTHER.

AND WITHOUT THAT THING,
YOU KNOW,

IT JUST FEELS...

LIKE WORK.

- [exhales]
YOU'RE RIGHT.

- I LEARNED THAT
IN A NAIL SALON TODAY.

- YEAH, GOOD LUCK
AT THE WEDDING.

- THANKS.

I MAY NEED IT.

- AND NOW
OUR MAID OF HONOR

PROCEEDS LAST BEFORE THE BRIDE.

LOVELY.
LOVELY.

PERHAPS JUST THE LITTLEST
BIT FASTER, DEAR.

AND NOW OUR MUSIC WILL CHANGE
TO THE WEDDING MARCH,

AND ALL OUR WONDERFUL FAMILY
AND FRIENDS WILL STAND

AND AWAIT THE ARRIVAL
OF OUR BEAUTIFUL BRIDE.

AND ONCE MARCIE MAKES IT
TO THE END OF THE AISLE,

OUR MAID OF HONOR
WILL TAKE HER BOUQUET.

- KATHERINE.

BOUQUET.

- RIGHT.

SORRY.

WE REHEARSE, EVERYONE.

CAN WE JUST HAVE A TALK
IN PRIVATE?

THANKS.
- SURE.

IS SOMETHING WRONG?

- UM...

UH...

OH, WOW,
I REALLY DIDN'T FIGURE OUT

WHAT I WAS GONNA SAY,
DID I?

- SAY ABOUT WHAT?
- ABOUT THE WEDDING.

- DO WE HAVE SOMETHING ELSE
TO PLAN?

- NO, NO, WE JUST--

WE JUST GET TO GO
TO THE WEDDING NOW,

AND I WAS WONDERING IF...

YOU WANTED
TO BE MY DATE.

- BUT WHAT ABOUT MICHAEL?

- MICHAEL IS
A REALLY NICE GUY.

BUT WE'VE REALIZED WE ARE
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT PEOPLE NOW.

AND SOMEBODY VERY WISE
TOLD ME

THAT SOMETIMES THE PERSON
YOU'RE MEANT TO BE WITH

IS STANDING
RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU

AND YOU GENUINELY
DON'T REALIZE IT.
