Sing like no one is listening,
love like you'll never be hurt,

dance like no one is watching,
live like it's heaven on earth.

That's my very favourite saying,

and nothing speaks truer
than that on your wedding day.

What if I trip and fall
on my face, Hope?

Then you will still live
happily ever after.

And you'll have a great story
to tell your grandkids.

None of my dance couples
have ever missed a step.

You're good, Vivian.

We've spent countless hours
in the studio together.

You've got this.

Now go get your husband,
married lady.

Alright. Let's dance.

And step.

And turn.

And step.

And turn.

And step.

And turn.

And step.

And turn.

And bourree.

Bourree.

And bourree.

A lady always curtsies after
an exceptional performance.

That was perfect.

OK, now find your parents
but don't forget,

practice, practice, practice.

The wedding is only
a couple weeks away.

Really good job out there.

Great work, see ya next time.

Well done.
You are so good with them.

I know I'm leaving my studio
to the best of care.

Well, it's not mine yet.

I haven't been approved
for the loan.

In any case, it'll all work out.

'Cause that's what happens
when something's meant to be.

It all works out.

Who's getting married?

Well, it is Saturday,
so probably a lot of people.

I guess my invitation got lost
in the mail, huh?

But this didn't.

I know, I just found it
laying around outside.

Is this what I think it is?

Well, it's not a million dollars
if that's what you're thinking.

Tickets to the opening
of "Love in Campbell Park".

This is better than
a million dollars.

Ticket.
I could only get you one.

- Sorry.
- Are you crazy?

I will stand for
the whole thing.

This is the hottest ticket
on Broadway.

Well, it's lucky you have

some fancy connections then,
huh?

- One fancy connection.
- Hey, that's all it takes.

I can't believe I get to finally
watch you dance on Broadway.

I can't believe I'm actually
gonna dance on Broadway.

It all still feels so...
so surreal.

I should get to rehearsal.
But I will see you opening night.

Come backstage after.
I'll put you on the list.

I wouldn't miss it.

She couldn't get one more ticket

for your sweet
old ailing mother?

Please, you're healthier
than all of us combined.

She could barely get me a ticket
and I'm her best friend.

I'm just so thrilled
for Cassidy.

Me too.
It's what she's always wanted.

It was your dream, too,
once upon a time.

I know, it was just so hard
putting my heart and soul

into every piece and
always coming up short.

So I am on a wonderful new path.

And I'll still be choreographing,
just in a different way.

What could be better than that?

Well, dad and I are proud of you
no matter what.

You've had to make some
tough decisions this past year.

Some more difficult than others.

Have you, talked to Peter?

I don't think he wants
to talk to me.

You know, he texted me.

And despite everything
he misses you.

Peter was perfect.
On paper.

The reality was different.
I just couldn't go through with it.

It has to be right.
Like you and dad.

You did the right thing.
For both of you.

And who knows
who you're gonna meet

in the next phase of your life?

I still don't think I'm quite ready
to start dating yet,

what with buying the new studio,

that's where my focus needs
to be right now.

True.

And you're gonna be so busy
you should probably give me

the ticket to see
Cassidy's show.

You're shameless, you know that?

Bravo! Bravo!

Excuse me.

Sorry.

Sorry.

- Name?
- Hope Mayes, I should be on the list.

- No.
- My friend is in the show.

- Excuse me?
- Don't bother, he doesn't care.

Who is he guarding?
Is Rihanna inside?

Could be. I've never seen
a stage door this crowded.

- Hi, Mr. Gunderson.
- I'm not on the list.

I just need to go backstage
to say a quick hello

to Carlos Ruis, the writer.

- Please, follow me.
- Hold on a second.

- Are you two together?
- We're not.

OK, well nobody gets in
who's name is not on the list.

Well, he just told you
he's not on it.

He's verifiable.

Well, my last name
might not be Gunderson

but if you could take two
seconds to call backstage

you would find out
that I am also verifiable.

Do you see all
these people waiting?

How about I just run inside
really quickly

and you two sort this out
amongst yourselves?

- Yeah, of course, Mr. Gunderson.
- No, Mr. Gunderson?

Now, I might not have
the name recognition

but I hope you don't think
that your time

is more valuable than mine,
do you, Mr. Gunderson?

I am so late.

Then maybe you should try
better time management.

Excuse me.

If you could just let
Cassidy Tyler know

that her friend
is waiting outside,

Mr. Gunderson will happily
wait his turn.

You heard the lady.
Please, let's get on that radio.

Then, hopefully, I will not be late
to meet my fiancé.

- Would that be acceptable to you?
- Absolutely.

I didn't... my friend's here.
I gotta go.

- Amazing!
- Thank you.

I was so nervous.
I couldn't stop shaking.

You couldn't tell.

And you have plenty of time
to get over those nerves

'cause you get to do it
all again tomorrow night.

I know.

I wanna introduce you
to Vanessa Curson.

The choreographer?

She's one of the best.

I know, and she's looking
for an assistant

for an upcoming show in London.

I know. I know
what you're gonna say.

But I think you should
submit your resume.

Your styles are so in sync.

I've been down this road
and I know how it ends.

I'm on a different path now
and that is the studio.

Just say hello to her.
Make a connection and see.

Like, it couldn't hurt.

Vanessa!

- Tell me these nerves will subside.
- Usually by show three.

OK.

- This is my friend Hope Mayes.
- Hi.

She's also an amazing
choreographer.

Well, more of a teacher now.

I'm in the process of buying
a dance studio on 71st and Park.

And she's choreographed
some amazing regional theater.

I got my start in regional.
Where might I have seen your work?

Nowhere recently.

I'm just learning the ins and outs
of how to run a studio.

That's what I've been
focused on lately.

You know, you guys should talk
about the London gig.

Hope would be great for it.

She also studied under
Jacqueline Mauer in college.

Jacqueline was my mentor
when I first got started.

- What did you get on her final?
- A 93.

A 93.
She must have liked you.

Send me your resume.
I'd be happy to take a look.

Cassidy has all my information.
It was really nice meeting you.

You too.

See?

- You always throw your hat into the ring.
- And hope they don't throw the hat back.

Well, you better submit
your resume

or this friendship is over.
And I mean that.

As I used to hear at almost
all of my auditions,

I am going in a different
direction.

- Is that...
- Yes.

He's even more good-looking
in real life.

You think we should go
over there?

You know what?

I'm just gonna casually
introduce you to Carlos or...

Don't bother.
Eric Gunderson is entitled.

And engaged.

- Wait, how do you know all that?
- Long story.

And, as you all know,
now that we're retiring,

my son Eric and Max's daughter
Adriana will be taking the reins

and guiding this firm
to the next level.

It's time to pass the torch

while keeping our respective
legacies in the family.

Our fathers founded
this investment brokerage

almost 80 years ago.

I've been working here
since I was 15,

and Eric joined the staff
after graduating college.

As did my daughter.

Now with the recent announcement
of Eric and Adriana's engagement

it's the perfect marriage of the
professional and the personal.

And we're very excited to see

what the two of you
can do together.

We promise to do right by you.

And of course Gavin
will continue in his role

as chief operating officer.

We couldn't do it without him.

And don't worry, you're
all invited to the wedding.

It should be quite the affair

once our wives get their hands on it,
you know.

Knock knock.

Sorry to barge in on you
in the middle of a work day, darling,

and I know you're busy
but we have an appointment.

What appointment?

I don't have anything
on the calendar.

- What is all this?
- Plans, clippings, a blueprint if you will.

Time is short, Eric.
Planning a wedding is a huge undertaking.

I get that, mother.

But Adriana and I are in the middle
of taking over the company.

We have to get started if we want
to be ready for a June wedding.

We only have two months.

OK, so we have
an October wedding.

Adriana's always wanted
to get married in Central Park.

Don't be silly, darling.
Society weddings happen in June.

- Plus, the hotel had a cancellation.
- We have some ideas, as well.

Great. Well, her mother
is on the way,

as is our wedding planner,
Dinnie.

Now, she's very much in demand

so we have to work
around her schedule.

She planned the wedding of the
Duke and Duchess of Caldecott.

Really?

That's the highest level
of royalty you could find, huh?

Don't be cute.
You know I only hire the best.

Thanks for switching
to this morning,

I have a new private client
tomorrow. A wedding couple.

Well, it is wedding season.
I have, like, three invitations already.

Sorry, that was insensitive of me.

You can talk about weddings
around me, Cass.

I'm the one who called mine off.

I know, but you and Peter
would be celebrating

your first year anniversary
right about now.

It's fine.

Peter and I, we just
didn't speak the same language.

I need someone who inspires me.

I get that.

I know that Peter wasn't right
for you, but... I don't know.

- I just don't understand-...
- What don't you understand?

Well, you're supposed to let go
of the things

that don't work in your life,

and Peter was one of those,
but your career isn't.

I'm not giving up on my career,
I'm just altering it.

When the thing you love most
in the world

is your constant source of
rejection it's time to reassess.

I'm just tired
of being disappointed.

Dinnie, no wonder

they call you the best
wedding planner in the city.

This is more water color.

Yes, I can see those together.

Isn't that pretty?

Now, I need those names
and addresses pronto

if we wanna get that save
the date out this week.

We'll get on the head count,
but just to be safe I'd order 400.

400?

We were thinking something
a little more intimate.

We know it's your wedding but
it's also a coming out of sorts.

For the business.

It's Gunderson and Grimes.
The next generation.

- Our clients are our friends, you know.
- That's true.

And they'd find out
if they weren't invited

since the Times is featuring us
in the wedding section.

Very big spread.

They're even sending
a photographer to LA

for your dress fitting, Adriana.

OK, I get it.
Is that all, though?

Eric and I have
a conference call.

Just one more thing.

Eric?

You remember
high school cotillion.

- Do you want a repeat of that?
- No, he does not.

- I do not.
- Good!

Because I signed you both up for
dance lessons starting tomorrow.

Incredible teacher.
I'll email you the address.

You'll be Fred Astaire
by summer.

Beautiful job, ladies.
Thank you.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Hope?

Hi.
I'm Adriana.

- Yes, Sofia told me to expect you.
- It's so good to meet you.

I'm sorry, my fiancé
is running a bit late

but he just texted me.
He'll be here soon.

OK, well let's just head on
over here,

you can put your things down

and tell me a little bit
about your experience.

All Sofia's told me is that we're
short on time and it's urgent.

Well, she's not exaggerating.

I have a good 12 years of dance
experience under my belt

but my fiancé is what you might
call rhythmically challenged.

I've had great success with
the rhythmically challenged.

That's good to know.

Our mothers want
performance-level quality

as if that's the key to
a lasting relationship.

They're also on the board
of the New York City ballet

and they are dead set
on the waltz.

Well, we'll get you two
in good shape.

I am so sorry.

I was with a client
and he would not stop...

- You.
- Hi.

- You two know each other?
- Yeah, we've met.

But Mr. Gunderson and I got off
on the wrong foot.

Yeah, I uh, I apologize
if I was rude.

- It won't happen again.
- Fine.

Well, we should get started
because we've got two months

and a lot of ground to cover.

Come on, Mr. Wrong Foot.
Dance with me.

Step right, and front,
and right.

Sorry.
This is cotillion all over again.

You can do this, Eric.
You're good at everything.

It's really annoying sometimes.

Well, then you should
be thrilled

that I can't seem to get my brain
to connect with my feet.

Let's try it again.
Slowly.

What do you think?
Are we completely hopeless?

Not at all. I have had
far more challenging clients.

So, what do you suggest?

Two, maybe three lessons
per week, get down the basics,

and then I'll choreograph
something

for the two of you that suits you.
It'll be perfect.

I was hoping two or three
lessons in total.

It's a very busy time for us
right now,

especially when the stock market
is open.

Due to our regular classes,

mornings are when we meet
with our private clients.

I don't want to embarrass myself
in front of 400 people.

That's 800 eyes watching me,
judging me.

No one's judging you in here.

What if you came in on your
own until you were comfortable?

Isn't the whole point for us
to learn together?

Just for the basics.

I'll cover things at work
and come and go as needed,

and then when it's time
to learn the dance

I'll make myself available.

- Twice a week?
- Maybe three times.

Are you sure you don't mind
holding down the fort?

Alone, while I'm here?

We pick up the slack
for each other, Eric.

Besides, Gavin will step up.

You can do it.
You're a man of many talents.

If only dancing were
one of them.

OK. Tomorrow, 11 am.
Please be on time.

And one, two, three, four.

Very nice.
And across the floor.

Alright, chin up, Adam.

And turn.

Very nice.

And dip.

Not a dry eye in the house.
You guys are ready for the big day.

Thanks, Hope.

And please, feel free to bring
a guest on Saturday night.

I cannot wait to watch you
walk down the aisle.

Are you gonna turn me into that?
I'm gonna try.

Only time will tell
if I succeed.

11 am on the nose.
Very good.

I didn't wanna subject myself
to your wrath again.

My wrath?

I suspect your bark is worse
than your bite

but you can be quite scary
when you wanna be.

Only when people behave
as if my time isn't valuable.

I'll see you two Saturday night.

Bye, Hope.
Thanks again for everything.

Look, I'm not your
favourite person, I get that.

I am really sorry
about the other night.

That's not me.
I mean, not usually.

It's just... that play.
It blew me away.

I was still thinking about it
the next day.

I agree.

It was everything
the theater should be.

Right. And Carlos is
incredibly talented.

I knew that after I read
his first play, Highest Crimes.

Yeah, I put up the money
as a favour

but it was one of the best
experiences of my life.

I would stand in the wings and
I'd watch the audience's reaction.

You invested in a play?

Why do you look so surprised?

I don't know, I just sort of
had you pegged

as a Wall Street finance numbers
kinda guy.

Judge a book by its cover,
you might miss out on a good story.

- OK, tell me the story.
- OK.

In a nutshell I'm not as stuffy
as I might seem.

Physical activity tends to come
relatively easy to me.

What I lack is that little thing
called rhythm.

I know it well.

Look, I don't want to make
a fool of myself

in front of New York society.

I did that once years ago.

So, what do you say,
can you help me?

I know I can.

Good.

It's important to remember
on the dance floor

it's all about feeling.
Don't think about what you look like.

Why not? Everyone else
will be thinking about it.

OK, relax your arms.
You're not in a suit of Armour.

Relax.
OK, now you're a noodle.

Better.

OK, we're going for strong
and confident, yet relaxed.

I'm a Gunderson.
Relaxed is not our natural state.

We're gonna have
to work on that.

Well, don't tell me
you haven't been warned.

I can see I'm gonna have to
think outside the box with you.

Now, let's do this.

This foot out.
Together.

Same foot, move back.
Together.

This foot out.
Together.

Good job.

Same foot front.
Together.

I've gone over the financials
for the studio

and it looks like the income
would far exceed

the monthly mortgage payment.

That's great.
So what would be the next step?

Well, you fill out
this application,

we run a credit check,
our underwriter reviews it,

signs off on the loan,

and then you become the owner
of a dance studio.

I'll be the owner
of a dance studio.

The long-time clients,
the old money crew,

they're creatures of habit.

They're used to the way
your fathers do business.

What if we give some sort
of dinner

to present the new investment
strategy?

Maybe a Jacques Bouchon.

Nobody walks away when you put
that caviar in front of them.

Except maybe Eric.
He hates caviar.

What do you think, Eric?

Sorry, it's Carlos.

Gavin, can you believe
she didn't wanna go

to the best show on Broadway
with me?

A little bit.

Come on, you know me.
Theater isn't my thing, either.

Well, it's your loss.

I'd much rather go home
at the end of a long day

and open a nice Pinot
and read Business Weekly

or the Economist.

You know, I bet you already
do that every night.

I bet you do, too.

I'm sorry to interrupt,
but if we're going to have

these dendrobium orchids
flown in from Thailand

decisions need to be made now.

You can't have a conversation
with a giant monstrosity

in the center of a table.

A beautiful monstrosity.

Do you want to take care
of the flowers, Eric?

I'm happy to scratch
one thing off my list.

Can we get something smaller
than the Chrysler building?

Sure. Change of plans.

Dinnie, Eric will be taking over
the florals.

Make sure they fit
with our colours.

Tell the florist celadon blue,
and bone.

No, no, no, no.
That's not what I meant...

No, no, no. I will leave it
in your capable hands.

It's your wedding, after all.

I will leave you to this fun and
I'm gonna call Jacques Bouchon

about a tasting
for the client dinner.

Make a reservation
for all of us, Gavin.

Jacques Bouchon is perfect
for the rehearsal dinner.

Mother, don't drag Gavin
into our wedding planning.

He's already got enough
on his plate.

- No, I don't mind at all.
- You're a dear.

Alright then, moving on.

So what do you think
of lavender?

- No, we don't.
- No?

May I please speak to Eric Gunderson?
This is Hope Mayes.

Hello?

Put her through.

Hope?

So you know how I said we need
to think outside the box?

I know, and I'm terrified.

Are you and Adriana available
to meet me Saturday?

She's going to LA this weekend
to meet with her dress designer

but I guess I can move
some things around.

That works.

You're the one that needs this,
anyway.

I'll text you the details.

Our next lesson is going to be
a bit unorthodox.

I can't wait.

A tuxedo.

I do have to say I am impressed
with the extent

to which you follow
instructions.

You said formal attire, and
I don't do anything halfway.

I don't want you to watch
the bride and groom.

- Isn't that the whole point?
- Not for you.

Take in the faces
of everyone watching.

The maid of honor,
the parents of the bride,

the best man's had a little
too much champagne

so let's bypass him.

Pure joy on everyone's faces.

They're all here to celebrate
the beginning of this journey.

Not a single person cares
about the performance.

Life isn't about appearances,
Eric.

Yeah, but that's the thing.

When you live your life in
the public eye it sort of is.

You have to let that go.

That's what this is about.
Love.

They're surrounded by it.
They're in it.

Once we focus on true love
then everything else falls into place.

Cheers!

OK, you've had your cake,
now it's time for our lesson.

I thought this was our lesson.

I kind of feel like
I'm nailing it.

If only my job were cake.

But I am being paid right now
to teach you to dance

and I take that very seriously.

Well, I am not just eating.
I'm researching.

I'm checking out flowers
for my wedding.

- I inadvertently took on that task.
- You don't have a wedding planner?

Yes, but somehow I got stuck
doing flowers.

As if I know anything
about flowers.

And the wedding planner insists
that everything at this wedding

make a statement.

What kind of statement?

I can't be sure but I think it's
"look how much money that cost".

That's why you hire
a good florist

and they narrow down your options
to your personal preference.

You wanna know
my personal preference?

Centerpieces that are
less than nine feet tall.

I actually have the perfect person
and it's by the studio

so I'll bring you by next time
you're there for a lesson.

That's not really part
of your job description.

Happy to help.

You seem a little over your head
with this one.

I am way past that point.

OK, problem solved.

Stop stalling.
Let's dance.

OK.

Just one...

so good.

Look into my eyes.

We're not gonna worry about
the steps right now,

we're gonna get you comfortable
on the dance floor.

I try to avoid dance floors
whenever possible.

Dance floors and forest fires.
Both are like natural disasters to me.

So what happened at cotillion
to make you swear it off?

Paige Jeffries.

She was the most beautiful girl
in Parkwell Academy

and I was dancing with her
up on a stage

and I tried to impress her
with some fancy moves

and I lead us both right off
the edge.

Oh no.

I only sprained my ankle
but she broke her nose.

In front of everyone.
It was humiliating.

More so for my family.

Paige's dad was a big client.
"Was" being the operative word.

Well, there's no stage
in the ballroom

so the chances of a repeat
performance are slim.

Have you met me?

You should have seen those
two when they came to me.

Nothing but left feet.

Have you always done weddings?

Wedding choreography
is part of the job.

Before that I did regional
theater in the tri state area

before auditioning
for the big jobs.

Why don't you do it anymore?
You're clearly very talented.

I would have paid money
to watch those two perform.

Well, my dance cart
is rather full at the moment

with one Eric Gunderson.

Well, I'll try to be a quick study
so you can get back to the fun gigs.

Because you are good at this.

OK.

I think you're gonna see
some improvement.

I almost got him comfortable
on a dance floor last weekend

while you were gone.

You'll be there with us
on our wedding day, right?

- If you want me to be.
- We do.

Don't mind us,
we're not even here.

This gentleman is from the Times
for our feature about the wedding.

- He's just gonna take a few pictures.
- Yes, keep doing what you're doing.

OK, remember what I said
about people watching?

Right.

Eye contact with your partner,
block everything else out.

That's right. Block us out.

Try to get them in a fancy pose

as sort of a taste of what's
to come on the big day.

We haven't really worked
on the fancy poses yet,

we're still working
on the basics.

So chin up, strong arms,
and right and back.

Darling, she's not
under quarantine.

You can hold her closer.

- I thought he was improving.
- He is, a lot.

Is he gonna be ready?
We don't have much time.

We'll be ready, mother.
We know how important this is.

We've got this.

Now take the pictures
and let us finish. OK?

- Why don't we do the dip?
- That would make a lovely picture.

Sorry.

Don't worry,
we've only just begun.

Oh, my goodness.

So tell me one little thing
about Eric Gunderson

now that you've had
a few lessons with him.

You know Sofia doesn't like me
to talk too much about our clients.

I'm not asking for their
social security numbers,

I just wanna know
if he's still an entitled jerk.

He's not at all
how I thought he'd be.

I actually like him and Adriana
a lot.

Really?

- So how's the show going?
- You won't believe it.

I get to understudy the lead in July
when she goes on vacation.

- That's incredible, Cass.
- Did you ever submit your resume?

Look, I don't deny
that choreographing

has always been my favourite
part but I'm on to a new venture

and it wouldn't really make sense for me
to go to London right now, anyway.

But it's London.

So?

OK.

I'm having Gavin put together
some numbers

and we can bring it to the board

as our first official decision
in charge.

- You really love this.
- I do.

It's what I've been working
towards since college.

Yeah, I know.

But I feel like we're not doing
anything meaningful.

We're transforming
financial portfolios.

I think our clients would tend
to disagree.

We're giving people
financial security.

And I love that about it
but I'd just like to be

a part of something
that makes people think.

Something that's actually
transformative.

Good financial news
is transformative.

For me, too.

But are you happy?

I am.

Everything's going
according to the plan.

The business is ours,
the wedding's going to be perfect.

We're getting what we want.

Yeah. We are.

Hope, good. You're here.

I want to go over all the
payroll information with you

so that when you take
over there'll be no lapse.

What is the status
of the loan, anyway?

- I'm waiting to hear.
- Wonderful.

'Cause I received a call today,
somebody else is interested

in the studio.
But I'll tell them no.

No, don't do that.

I mean, what if I don't
get approved?

Are you having second thoughts,
Hope?

There'd be no shame in that,
but I do need to know soon.

No, I just-I don't want you
to miss out on the opportunity

if I don't qualify, that's all.

Is there any way
to hold them off for a bit?

Yeah, for a little while
I suppose.

Thank you for doing this.

I know it's not on the official
dance lesson plan.

Well, it's still wedding adjacent.

Now, let's go meet this florist
because tomorrow

I'm gonna start teaching you
the actual steps.

That's great news.

Just take a look in the book,
see what you like

and they can customize it
any way.

- There's a cat in a flower shop.
- This is Lulu.

She's kinda the mascot here.

Help a guy out here, Lulu.
Irises or Lilys?

I know, I have no idea, either.

Notice your arms,
how you're holding her,

cradling her gently
with nothing but affection?

That is how you hold
your dance partner.

Your bride.

You're not thinking about
what it feels like

or where your arms go.

You just are.

Sometimes we have to be
reminded not to think.

So how do you know this florist
and her cat so well?

I hired her for my wedding.

- You're married?
- Supposed to be a year ago.

But I called it off
a few weeks before.

I imagine that was hard, to feel
misunderstood by your partner.

Everything was measured by him.
He was so afraid to make a mistake

that he didn't want me to make
any, either.

And do you?
Make a lot of mistakes?

I try not to?

There's this assistant
choreography job in London,

I could send in my resume
and further subject myself

to potential rejection

or I could commit to buying
the studio,

which is a really good option.

I had this professor in college
who used to say life's a gamble,

so make it interesting.

He even made us write
our own bios.

So what do you want
your book jacket to say?

I guess I'd want it to say she
was brave and had no regrets.

- And she never aged.
- OK.

- So there's the choice.
- If only it were that simple.

Here's the story of Hope Mayes.

She could have gone to London,
tea at the Ritz every day,

touring the National Gallery
on her days off,

but, she'll never know

because she never submitted
her resume.

I guess you could say that
we're sort of in the same boat.

How so?

Carlos has this new play, it's about
vets returning from the war

and he wants me to produce it,
not just finance it.

And it's really incredible
but... but the business, it's-

Here's the story of Eric Gunderson.
He could have produced this juggernaut,

changing lives in its sixth
season on Broadway

and printing more money
than the US mint but he passed.

OK.

So whaddya say?

You submit your resume
and I talk to Carlos

and see if I can juggle both?

- So is the tea at the Ritz really good?
- There's only one way to find out.

Attaching resume.
Hat, meet ring.

Four and dip.

And good job.

Change your shoes.

- I feel like I'm making progress, right?
- You're making great progress.

- Hello?
- Hope? It's Vanessa Curson.

Hi Vanessa.

So I was looking over
your resume last night.

You choreographed Borrowed Magic
for the Connecticut Playhouse.

- That was a great show.
- You saw it?

I never understood why
it didn't make it to Broadway.

So listen, I would love for you
to put together

an audition piece for me.

- Really?
- Yes, really.

I'll email you the music file
and all the details.

That would be great, thank you.

She wants me to put together
an audition piece.

And you almost didn't send
your resume.

So?

How do you feel?

Conflicted.

I love the idea of telling
a story without words,

so that's exciting.

But?

There was this job
about a year ago

to choreograph this dance tour.

The best dancers
in the business.

The job was mine.
I was so sure.

And then it wasn't,

and I just got so tired of
hearing how talented I was

but here's a hundred reasons
why we didn't pick you.

And that's when the opportunity
to buy the studio came along.

I understand that but doesn't
this seem like a second chance?

It just feels like I have one
foot on each side of the fence.

I know how that feels.

I studied theater and finance.
Dual major.

It can make your head spin a bit
but one was for me

and one was for my dad.

- Finance won?
- I guess you could say that.

But after I read Carlos's
first play

I knew I had to be a part of it.

And those were some pretty
great coattails to jump

on my first time out.

- Carlos is taking off.
- And he wants me to come along with him.

So what's the problem?

Adriana, she gets more excited
every day

about taking over the business,

and as we get deeper into it
I'm conflicted.

There's so much I wanna do and
none of it happens in that office.

I think you just sound like someone
who has to pick a side of the fence.

When you said you had
the perfect location

to make a dancer out of me

I was thinking like a night club
or something.

You thought wrong.

I'm not sure how Central Park
comes in to play.

You'll see. Come on.

Take off your shoes and socks
and roll up your pants.

We're going in there?

OK, first a stranger's wedding

and then a cat in a flower shop
and now the pond?

- Are you Mr. Miyagi-ing me?
- Don't underestimate it.

Mr. Miyagi lead the karate kid
to a big win.

It's time to let appearances go.

You've gotta be tired of
those fancy shoes, anyway.

You know, I was taught that
rules are there to be followed.

What rules?

I don't see any signs anywhere
saying don't enter the pond.

Some rules are unspoken.

Sooner or later you're gonna learn
it's best not to argue with me.

No, I got that.

Get in, Gunderson.

Well...

Look at the water.
It has an ebb and flow.

It's impossible for it to be rigid,
which is the opposite of you.

You need to learn
to be the water.

All swimming upstream will get
you is some very tired arms.

Like the water.

Ebb and flow.

Ebb and flow.

You wanna try
the first eight count?

Yeah.

One, two, three,
one, two, three,

...one, two, three.
Good.

One, two, three,
one, two, three.

Sorry.

You make this really fun.

It's cause there's no pressure.
You can just be you.

OK, we are ready for Adriana
to come back in.

- Alright.
- Yeah.

Wax on, wax off.

I am so sorry I'm late.

The dress arrived and then
I couldn't get a cab.

It's been one of those days.

That's OK, we were just
rehearsing the beginning.

- Did you get the video I sent?
- Yes, watched and memorized.

This dress is huge.

Much bigger than the sketches
the designer showed me.

I don't know how I'm going
to dance in it.

- We'll need to do a dry run.
- You want him to see you in it?

No, we'll kick him out and give
it a twirl around the studio.

I always think that's
a good idea.

You don't want the first time
you dance in it

to be your wedding day.

I'm not so sure how I feel
about it anyway,

so if I can't dance in it
then it definitely has to go.

I look like a giant marshmallow,
don't I?

I swear I was pressured
into this by my mother.

She thought it would
photograph well.

I think you're the most
beautiful bride I've ever seen.

- Really?
- Turn around.

So we use this loop to hold up
your skirt while you're dancing.

Now, try the first few steps.

I don't think it's gonna be
a problem.

Everything has to be perfect,
right down to the napkin rings,

which are being flown in
from France.

We don't have good enough
napkin rings here in America?

Everything is about the optics.

How we're perceived is how
the business is perceived.

It's intertwined.

Well, as long as you're happy
that's all that matters.

I wish I had time to enjoy it
more, but...

- how does Eric seem to you?
- Fine.

I mean, this doesn't come easily to him
so he's a little frustrated, but...

Not-not the dancing,
I mean in general.

Here we are, getting everything
we always talked about,

and our reactions couldn't be
more different.

Well, they say
opposites attract.

They also say that nothing bonds
like common ground

and I feel like we don't have
much of that anymore.

Sometimes when life gets
particularly stressful

we fall out of sync but
as soon as the dust settles

we step right back
into our routine with ease.

Yes. Maybe that's it.

Timing.

So I don't look like
a giant cake?

No, you're stunning.

I mean, a ten-piece orchestra,
twenty-piece orchestra,

what difference does it make?

- No difference. I want a band.
- Then we get a band.

You know, some of our new
clients might like something

a little more fresh.

OK. I'll find one, since that
seems to be the only way

to remotely get what we want
for this wedding.

I know it feels like a runaway train,
everything's happening so fast.

Two more weeks then, and
everything will settle down.

Of course it will.

But I do like this,

being out in the world
in the middle of the day.

Then we'll do more meetings
outside the office

instead of having everyone
come to us.

That's fine.

I want to talk to you
about something.

- I have a question for you, too.
- You go first.

Are you regretting
taking over the company?

No, not regretting per Se.

I mean, I want it to be
hugely successful.

But how would you feel
if I produced a play?

How would that work
with the company?

I'm not sure.
Maybe I could do both.

I don't see how.

The business is full-time
and so is producing.

And if I figured out a way?

I know you love this business
and I love watching you thrive

as you take the reins
of this company,

but I feel like I want more.

More than an insanely successful
brokerage firm?

I mean, it's the golden goose, Eric.

Let's go in.

In the pond?

- In our clothes?
- Yeah, why not?

Because it's crazy.
And possibly illegal.

And people will see us.

Don't worry about that.
Come on, it'll be fun.

That's not really my idea
of fun.

Let's get back to work.

We could go to that little
Italian place we love.

It's quick and I only have
an hour before my next class.

Perfect.

- How's the dance coming?
- It's a work in progress.

So is everything.

You're never done, you just
stop revising it.

What's happening with the loan?

I find out soon
if I was approved.

Well, you sound perfectly morose
about it.

Are you having second thoughts
about buying the studio?

If I buy it it's just I don't
have time to do anything else.

It feels like such
a big commitment.

So definitive.

Do you think I gave up
on my dreams too quickly?

I think your dream may have
changed for a little while.

But now it looks like
it might be changing back.

- That happens, you know.
- Right.

But what if I dive in
and it doesn't work out?

When it came to Peter
you took care of yourself

and you walked away,

not from a place of fear
but from a place of strength.

And if I walk away form this it
will be from a place of fear.

Take care of yourself again.
Whatever that means to you.

- That was incredible.
- You think?

I mean, it's better when my
partner's not imaginary, but...

You'd dance circles around him.

It's nice, creating
like this again.

You know, you light up
when you dance like that.

Well, I guess that's what happens
when you do what you love.

I can't believe you beat me.

I gotta get out
on that course more.

You literally golf six days
a week since you retired.

Keeping busy helps us not
to micromanage you and Adriana.

Please, I know you still get
updates on the daily financials.

It's only because I have
a vested interest,

it's not to interfere.

You're doing a fabulous job,
the two of you.

But then again you were trained
by the best.

Hey, that'll be you soon.

I like to see how your life
is falling into place.

Dad, when did you decide you
wanted to work on Wall Street.

I don't think I ever
really decided.

My father always said everyone
in this family works and so I did.

There were no handouts,
no trust funds.

That's why you were never handed
anything, either.

Come on, I had a top-notch
education paid for by you.

Paid for with sweat equity.

You worked for it form the time
you were 15.

Now this company
is your trust fund.

But what if you had wanted
to do something else?

There was nothing else.

My father handed me a gift,
this company.

Sure, we all have hobbies.

I like to play golf but I'm
not about to join the PGA tour.

Senior PGA tour.

No, no. This-this is our place
in the world, Eric.

Our contribution.

I've handed you my legacy
as my father handed it to me.

It's an honor, so be proud of it
and serve it with care, huh?

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Lift. Yeah.

Give it a try.

Yes.

Like that.

Lovely.

Your work lights up a room.

Well, you know
it's all I ever wanted to do.

I understand.

And as hard as it is
to hang up my hat,

it's evident to me I'm ready.

When it's time to let go
it's revealed to you.

I know you're still waiting
to hear from the bank,

but the other offer.

They're putting pressure on me
for an answer.

I'm gonna need one by Friday.

I'll call the bank
for an update.

Thanks.

And this is where the cocktail
hour will take place.

A string quartet,
passed h'ordeuvres

and three well-staffed bars
around the perimeter.

It's perfect.

I promised you one for the books
and I am delivering.

Now, let's keep moving.

We've got little more than
a week before the big day.

Now, they will expand the dance
floor to accommodate so many guests.

Horseshoe-shaped head table
over there and tables of 12

throughout the rest of the room.

And here is where
your orchestra sits.

- Band.
- I'm sorry?

We're having a band
not an orchestra.

Have you chosen yet?

I've been watching some videos online
but mostly everybody's booked already.

Getting down to the wire here.

I know a great one.

They really only do weddings
for me as a favour.

You two come by in the morning
while they're setting up.

I won't be there yet
but I'll tell them

to give you a little sample.

I can't, the quarterly earnings
come out tomorrow,

but you can choose
without me, Eric.

I trust your taste in music.

OK. I'll drop by
after my dance lesson.

Wonderful. Moving on.
We have to pick tablecloths.

I have seven shades of blue
for you to choose from.

Seven shades of blue?
Did you know seven shades of blue?

Vaguely.

Beautiful.

That was great.

Nice.

That's enough for today.

We'll finish this up later.
Thank you guys so much.

I'm still struggling with the end.
I don't know where to go with it.

Should they end up together?

Do you want people smiling
or crying in the end?

Do they get what they want
in this life or not?

Well, people should get
what they want,

but reality's not always
in sync with that.

But this is a world
you're creating.

How do you want
this love story to end?

I'm gonna think about that
and get back to you.

Alright, enough about me.
Let's get to work.

Are you OK if we take our lesson
on the road?

Where to?

I was thinking maybe a bit
of a practice run is in order.

I thought I was the one
that was supposed to be

changing up the lessons.

They're ready.

This is such an incredible place
to get married.

It's gonna be beautiful.

They're gonna play a few
songs for us.

For me.

And we're gonna get you
used to this dance floor.

That's why I brought
these terrible shoes.

Let's see if you remember
the steps.

I hope they're good.

Make this about you,
not appearances.

Look me in the eyes
and be in the moment.

Why is it so easy with you

and then Adriana comes in
and I'm a mess?

Like I said,
there's no pressure.

Yeah.

That's probably it.

Hello?

This is Hope.

That's great.

Thank you.

I got approved for the loan.

Looks like you have
a decision to make.

...It would definitely cut down
on operating costs.

It's 5:00, we have to go.

We have a dance lesson
and then the cake tasting.

I forgot about the cake tasting.

This is how we get
the wedding we want.

We have to be making these
decisions together.

I picked the band, I
picked the flowers...

I know, and I'm sorry.

But I booked an early dinner
with Eleanor Green.

She might wanna leave the firm.

She might want to
or she's going to?

I don't know, but she's one
of my father's oldest clients.

I want to keep her happy.
You'd do the same.

But I don't wanna leave you
in the lurch.

I'm sorry, I forgot.

I think you should do what's
most important to you.

I need to sit down with Eleanor.

Please understand, Eric.

I do.

I thought Adriana was coming.
Is she meeting you here?

She's not coming.

We haven't had a full rehearsal
with the two of you yet.

- Time is running out.
- I know.

And I'm sorry you changed
your schedule around

to have an afternoon session with us.

That's OK.

We could just rehearse
with the two of us or,

if you're not feeling like it,
we could just call it a day.

You know what,
let's just call it a day.

- Are you hungry?
- Famished, actually.

Good. I know just the place.

The New Yorker
and the Princess Lily.

I can safely say
this is the first time

I've had seven different types
of cake for dinner.

Not me.

I like this one and that one.

Not that one,
Adriana hates coconut.

Definitely the dolce de leche.

How am I supposed
to pick just one?

They will let you have
all of them.

Each layer can be
a different flavour.

- Are you sure about that?
- I happen to know that for a fact.

You did get pretty
far down the road

with your wedding plans,
didn't you?

And I learned a lot
in the process.

For example,
deposits are non-refundable

and there's really no other
appropriate occasion

for a custom wedding dress.

Yeah, I guess not.

This is supposed to be fun, right?

- Planning a wedding, getting married.
- So I hear.

So what made you walk away?
Was it a final incident or something?

Not one thing in particular
but I always said

I wanted to get married once
and I take that very seriously.

Me too.

As I got deeper into
the wedding planning

- I realized this is my once.
- And of course it wasn't.

It's easier to see that now, but
it's tough when you're in it.

And there were some good aspects
to the relationship.

They were just outnumbered.

Did you ever have any regrets?

Not once.

Well, I did offer to pay my dad
back for the venue deposit.

I do regret that a little bit.

Alright, let's try
the other ending.

- Maybe they should end up together.
- I think so.

I mean, give this poor couple
what they want.

- We should all be so lucky, right?
- Yeah, exactly.

Alright, you heard the man.
Let's do this ending.

Thank you.

Thank you.

So, the loan paperwork is in
and I have to make a decision.

Now.

I mean, if I dive back into
the choreography full force

then I'm doing it.

But that means I have to let go
of plan B.

I don't have enough time
to do both.

So be it.

Hope, this is what you love.

Do you know how lucky you are
to know what you want?

Not many people have
that kind of clarity.

That next hand might be
a royal flush.

You're still here.

Did you tell the parents
the recital costumes

will be in next week?

- I did.
- Great.

- Do you have a minute?
- Yeah. Yeah, of course.

You're not buying the studio.

- How'd you know?
- I've known all along.

I was just waiting for you
to realize it.

- Now that I'm choreographing again I...
- It's a leap worth taking.

I will accept the other offer

and I will tell them it comes
with an incredible teacher.

At least until her big
opportunity comes.

And it will come, whether
it's this week or next year.

Thank you so much for everything
you've done for me, Sofia.

It's my pleasure, Hope.
I can't wait to watch you soar.

Eric?

Hi.
Did we have a lesson today?

No. I...
I wanted to drop this off.

When I knew you were at lunch.

I just wanted to wish you luck
for tomorrow.

This is so sweet.
Thank you.

So are you nervous?

Fluctuating between self-doubt
and crippling panic, so no?

- Is anyone going with you?
- Flying solo.

- Would you like some moral support?
- Don't you have to be at the office?

I can go in a bit late.
One benefit of being the boss.

OK.
I'd love for you to come.

OK.

Music.
Where's my music?

Vanessa has it, remember?
She sent it to you.

Right.

Another copy of my resume,
check.

And a bundle of nerves.
Check.

Just relax.
You're ready.

She would be a fool
not to pick you.

Excuse me, Hope?

Before we begin I need to check
your availability.

We'll have to leave by Friday.

If that doesn't work for you
let me know.

It works.
It definitely works.

Great. OK, well let's
get started.

Really beautiful job, Hope.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Well, I have two more pieces
to see today

but you'll hear from me
by tonight either way.

Thank you for the opportunity.

- That was incredible.
- It felt incredible.

I don't wanna go back
to the office.

I really don't wanna go back
to the studio.

OK, well let's go for a walk.

- Through the park?
- I have a better idea.

I wish I could do this every
single working day.

Take the time to walk
the Brooklyn Bridge.

Yeah, you occasionally have
a good idea.

Occasionally, huh?

You know, I was kinda dreading
my dance lessons.

- No.
- Believe it.

But then being out of the office so much,
I really started looking forward to them.

I told you I'd make a dancer
out of you.

Let's not overshoot.

But all of this has kinda made me
look at the world differently.

I mean, I danced in a pond
in Central Park.

You danced well in a pond
in Central Park.

So what does Adriana think
of the new you?

It feels like Adriana and I
aren't on the same page.

We started dating in our 20's

and it's been on this fast track
ever since.

But I thought getting to this
point would feel different.

I thought I'd be excited.
And I'm not.

Well, you two have a lot going on.

Sometimes when life
gets really stressful

it's hard to see the light
but it does come back.

It didn't with you
and your fiancé.

Well, that's different.
We weren't right for each other.

Does this maybe have something
to do with the play?

What do you mean?

I hear the tone of your voice
when you talk about it.

- Oh yeah? How does it sound?
- It sounds inspired.

You know, there's a royal flush
in your deck, too.

Got a minute?

- We can finish this later.
- Thanks, Gav.

Are you OK?

I need to talk to you
about something.

OK.

I've been thinking a lot
about the company.

You don't want this anymore.

I knew it.

The clients deserve more.

And you deserve a better
business partner.

Someone who's heart is in it
just as much as yours,

if not more.

You and I both know Gavin is
far better suited for this than I am.

Say something.

- I want you to be happy.
- I know that.

And I also know
this is a lot to take in.

- So what're you thinking of doing?
- For starters, producing that play.

One of the riskiest
investments around.

Not this time.
You should read it.

It's gonna be worth it.

I don't have time to read, Eric.
I have a company to run.

How is this going to look
to our clients?

What does your father
think of this?

I haven't told him yet.
I wanted to talk to you first.

Come on.

Things aren't gonna be
that different.

I don't know how
you can say that, Eric.

This changes everything.

- So determined today.
- Gotta keep moving.

Vanessa said she was making
her decision last night

and I have heard nothing.

Don't read too much into it.

She said she'd tell you either way
so no news means no news.

But I can't believe
you didn't ask me to come

- for moral support.
- Eric offered and I accepted.

- OK, I am not even gonna say a word.
- Good. Because he's getting married.

But what I will say is...

I knew you couldn't
help yourself.

I just feel like maybe this is
the first time since Peter

that you're ready to move on.

Listen, I don't know what
I'm doing with my life,

personally or professionally,

but for the first time in a while
I'm OK with that.

You're up.

Hi, dad.
Sorry I'm late.

Mr. Lewis had questions
about changes to his portfolio.

Some things never change.

Still reading the journal
even in your retirement, huh?

Old dog, new tricks.
And all of that nonsense.

You can get that information
online now, you know.

I like the feel of a real
newspaper in my hands.

Ink on my fingertips.

So tell me, what do you need to
talk about that's so important

I had to skip the back nine?

Can we speak privately
in my office?

It's about the company.
I don't think I'm the man for the job.

- Adriana, absolutely, but me...
- I wouldn't hand you the company

if I didn't think you could
handle it.

I can handle it, but the problem is
I don't want to.

Look, this is new and
it's a big responsibility,

I understand that
that can be intimidating.

- I'm not intimidated.
- Then what's the problem?

It's not what I wanna do
with my life.

How do you know?
You've barely just begun.

- It doesn't make me happy.
- Because it's work.

No one's job makes them happy
every minute of the day.

I get that, dad, but there's
an opportunity for me,

a more creative path I really
wanna pursue.

Eric, we have made assurances
to our clients

that Gunderson and Grimes
would continue to be

Gunderson and Grimes and now
two months in you wanna walk?

I know I made a commitment to you,
to Adriana, to the clients...

- What does Adriana have to say?
- She just wants me to be happy.

You've barely scratched
the surface.

You have to give it more time
at the very least to give

our clients a chance to adjust
to all of these changes.

This is our legacy whether
you're at the helm or not

and we have to handle it
with care.

You're right.

- What if I gave it a year then?
- Good.

Give it a year,
smooth the transition.

You never know.

You might change your mind.

Who knows?

Not too much longer.

Your life's gonna be like
one big vacation soon enough.

Yes.

Hello?

Hi, Vanessa.

My passport is up to date.

Yes. I'm in.

I can't wait.

And thank you so much
for believing in me.

OK, I'll see you Friday.

- You got it.
- I'm going to London!

Friday? You only have three days!
You better get started packing.

- Congratulations!
- Thank you.

Adriana's meeting us here in a few.

Is this considered business casual
in the dance world?

No, I am actually leaving.

Sofia's gonna do
your last two lessons.

I just wanted to say goodbye.

- You got it!
- I got it.

Six months in London.

- Congratulations!
- Thank you.

I am so happy for you.

You worked so hard.

You took a huge risk
and you made this happen.

Yeah, we're doing it.

Well, maybe not me.
Not yet.

I told Carlos I'm out.
I made a commitment to the company.

It might be too much all at once
for the clients if I left.

I'm sorry.
I know this meant a lot to you.

It's not the end.
It's just not right now.

- Soon, maybe.
- Yeah.

You deserve all the best,
I hope you know that.

You too.
And I couldn't be happier for you.

So you're gonna be in good hands
with Sofia for your wedding.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's coming up
in a couple days, too.

- I'm sorry I'm gonna miss it.
- That's OK.

We've got four videographers.

I'm sure we'll catch every angle
on film.

I can't wait to watch it.

Thanks, Hope.
For everything.

It was truly my pleasure.

So I guess this is goodbye.

Yeah.
Yeah, this is goodbye.

- Thank you, bye.
- Okay. Bye.

How many scarves?

To London?
100.

They're always wearing scarves
in the movies.

I am so excited for you.

How do you feel?

It's all happening so fast

I don't even have time
to be nervous.

What time is your flight
to London?

Do you want me to come
to the airport with you?

It's at 11:00 tonight but my parents
are coming to see me off.

They must be so proud of you.

- How was it saying goodbye to Eric?
- It was fine.

I didn't say everything
I wanted to, but...

What do you mean?

His business, I wanted to scream
what are you doing?

You don't want this.

I just wanted to encourage him
the way that he encouraged me.

Yeah, but he's gonna have
a wife in a few days.

That's her job.

Right. And I'm off
on a new adventure.

Exactly.

And this is the first
of many shows, Hope.

You're on your way.

And who knows what the next
phase of life will bring?

And one, two, three,
two, two, three,

three, two, three,
four, two, three,

five, two, three,
turn, turn, turn.

OK, OK.
Let's stop.

You're young, you're in love,

you're about to pledge your
lives to each other on Saturday

and you did not look into
each other's eyes one time.

I know the steps. I get the steps,
but it just isn't working.

- Maybe we shouldn't do the dance.
- Now you tell me this?

The spread in the Times,
the pictures of our rehearsal

teasing this big dance
and you wanna cancel it?

Maybe we just aren't meant
to dance with each other.

- Some people aren't dancers.
- I've been saying this since April.

Let's not do anything rash.

A wedding is a time that
can test one's patience.

Maybe we should call it a day

and start again tomorrow
for our final lesson.

OK.

- You're here.
- I came straight from the airport,

I thought you might wanna
get started right away.

Thank you again, Vanessa.

You're gonna stop thanking me
when you see how much work

we have to do with
this accelerated schedule.

- I'm up for the task.
- I know you are.

- Let me get that for you.
- Thanks.

Welcome to the Alexander
Pope Theater.

- Do you mind if we have a minute?
- Yeah, of course.

Thanks.

You are one of the most
important people in my life.

You know that, right?

OK.
What's going on?

I know why there's a disconnect
on the dance floor,

off the dance floor.

Because it's not right.

We are not right for each other.

- We don't speak the same language.
- We don't want the same things.

Then why are we getting married?

I don't know.

You're the most important person
on the planet to me

but I'm relieved.

It all got so out of hand.

I didn't... I didn't want
to admit to myself or to you

that we were making a mistake.

I didn't want to disappoint anyone.

I didn't either.

So we're not getting married.

Are you staying
with the company?

I don't wanna do anything
to hurt the company.

I know this is your dream.

You deserve to be happy in work,
in life, in love.

Yeah.

And so do you.

I think I might have a way for us
to both get what we want here.

I'm listening.

And one, two, three,
four, five, six,

seven, eight.

One, two, three, and four.

Really nice run you guys,
thank you.

Alright, that's enough
for today.

Get some rest, everyone.

We'll hit it again tomorrow
morning, 9 am sharp.

Nice work today, Hope.

I love what you've brought
to the opening back, too.

Thank you.

- See you tomorrow.
- OK.

Excuse me.
My name is not on the list, but...

Eric, what are you doing
in London?

I'm scouting a bit.

I heard this was a good one,
though you need better security.

Anyone can just walk in here.

What're you talking about?
What is going on?

A new creative investments
division of Gunderson and Grimes.

I run it, while Adriana and Gavin
run the financial advisory side.

That's incredible.
Where is Adriana?

Shouldn't you guys be
on your honeymoon?

You see, there's this thing
that happened.

I thought I was doing everything
I was supposed to do.

Marrying the girl I was supposed
to marry,

following in my father's
footsteps...

- You didn't get married.
- No.

We both agreed it wasn't right.

We'd been going through
the motions for a while.

And so I'm here.

Aside from scouting we're gonna
be workshopping Carlos's play

on the West End.

I'll be going back and forth, a lot.

And then next stop Broadway
in six months.

- That's about the same time I go back.
- Well, what a coincidence.

You know, it's funny.

One day I stepped
onto this dance floor,

which you know I hate,
and everything changed.

Suddenly I looked forward
to dancing.

No, you didn't.

OK, maybe it's just the part where
I got to have you in my arms.

But also I found the inspiration
I needed because I watched you,

and I wanted to thank you
for that.

Underneath all those layers of
obligation and responsibility

I found myself,

and it's so clear
what I want now.

What is that?

You.

Dance with me?
