- You look tired, beti.
- I am tired.

I just need to get
through the next two days,

take the bar, and
then I can rest.

Shouldn't you be studying
instead of cooking?

I am mentally reviewing
tort law while I grate.

- Hmm.
- Well, this has been fun,

as usual, but I have to go.

I have to finish
making my chunda.

And next time you make it,
Mom, add a pinch of turmeric.

Wait, before you rush off,
I found someone for you.

Angali Auntie's nephew's son.

- He's a doctor.
- Mom, I can't see that.

Can you hold it a little back?

- I emailed it to you.
- Good family. Good career.

His mother's a bit of a cow,
but his father is very kind.

He's handsome.

Is it too fast, deekra?

We can wait a little
bit if you want.

- She's already 26.
- You want her to get stuck

with someone divorced
or unemployed?

Uh-uh. She needs a good husband.

- He's perfect on paper.
- What do you think?

I need to get back
to his mother.

Just tell them no.

I told you, I want
it to be arranged.

I said that to you
on our first date.

Yeah, like four years ago.

Before all the birthdays,
the friends, the fights.

One pregnancy scare,
two trips to the ER.

Nish, that was before
we fell in love.

I know.

- Do you still love me?
- So much.

Then how are you okay

with the idea of
marrying someone else?

I know it's difficult
to understand,

but I want my kids to grow up
eating the same foods I ate

and speaking the language
and knowing their culture.

I can't change the fact
that I'm not Indian.

- No. I don't want you to.
- You're perfect the way you are.

It's just that law
school's ending,

and I need to... I need
to start figuring out

what I'm doing with
this phase of my life.

Well, if you're
ready to get married

marry me.

You don't believe in marriage.

What are you doing?

Oh, my God.

I didn't believe in marriage.

And then I met the
most complicated,

challenging, hilarious,
beautiful woman in the world.

And then I did believe.

Will you marry me, Nish?

Good morning, Javier.

- Ruby, Elena.
- Hey.

- Late again.
- Was not.

Well, you were almost late.

- You can't be almost late.
- Either you are or you aren't.

Listen, I'm very busy.

I don't have time for all of
the sexual tension between us.

Okay...

- Nisha Shah.

This is Elena Roarke, your host.

And this is my associate, Ruby.

It's so nice to
meet you, Ms. Shah.

So wonderful to
meet both of you.

I can't wait to begin.

Well then, let's go to my
office and get started.

After you.

Whoa, whoa. Hold up. Elena.

Yes.

I'm gonna stop by
your office later.

I have a question.

- Can you ask me now?
- Eh, it's about a fantasy.

- I have one.
- What? Um... mm-mm.

Don't you even want
to know what it is?

Nope.

Which one should I marry?

Yeah, the Island doesn't
answer questions.

It fulfills fantasies.

Okay.

My fantasy is for an answer.

Your semantics won't
get you as far here

as they do in the courtroom.

Look.

Oh. Wow. This is, um

- laminated.
- Wow, okay.

I've hit every life
goal either on time

or ahead of time,
and marriage is next.

Oh, yes. "To do: Say, 'I do.'"

I normally know what I want.
But this time, I'm at a loss.

So tell us a little
bit about each man.

Hmm.

Well, Josh is creative
and thoughtful and smart.

And he doesn't make much,
but he's developing an app.

And, well, I can't
say much about it,

but it has tremendous potential.

And I can be a little intense.

- Is that right?
- Josh evens me out.

He makes me feel like
everything's gonna be okay.

But Savin, see, now,

I can see myself
building a life with him.

He's stable. He's ambitious.

And he understands
where I come from.

I mean, we're gonna connect

in a way that Josh
and I never could.

These need a pinch of cinnamon.

Oh. It says here that Savin

is a head of cardiology
at City Memorial.

And he's not even 30.

I mean, he is the
responsible choice.

A pinch of cinnamon and two
more minutes in the oven.

- Thanks.
- So what do you think, Ruby?

The creative and
full of potential,

or the safe and stable?

Well, I-I really couldn't say.

Look, if I don't get married,
it means no kids by 30,

empty nest by 52,
and retirement by 55.

And if I don't retire by 55,

I won't have time to
pursue my actual dream:

Opening a restaurant by 60.

Wow.

I'm 26 and out of time.

So let's try this again.

What can the Island do for you?

- Marriage changes people.
- I know that.

My fantasy is to find out

which version of who
I become is better.

- You see, that we can do.
- Really?

Welcome to Fantasy Island.

You probably think
it's old fashioned

to care so much about
getting married.

No, I understand.

I was married for decades.

- You were what?

You know one thing I learned?

It's not just about
who you marry.

It's about the
commitment you make

and the life you build

and the love, that...
well, grows over time.

Oh, and okay. And here we are.

Good luck. Okay?

Okay.

Prepare for the unexpected.

We're married.

I wonder how long it will
take before they feel normal.

You're expected
inside in ten minutes.

Sumit Uncle is already drunk.

And Priya Mahee is mad

she isn't sitting
closer to the stage.

We'll be right in.

So this is nice.

Kind of weird.

I have something for you.

I know we kept the
whole thing traditional,

but I wrote vows for you.

May I?

Nisha, I am probably gonna
make a thousand mistakes

getting to know you,

but I already know your
smile makes me smile,

and that our conversations
will never be boring.

I promise to support you
however you need me to.

I promise to be a good father.

I promise to treat your
family with respect

and to tell your mother

her dhokra is the...
best I've ever had.

Oh, I promise to tell
my mom to shut up

when she starts to nag you about

what detergent you're using
or the length of your hair.

I promise to make our
family the center of my life

for better and for worse.

Was that okay?

- Tch, tch, tch, tch.
- Sorry, Mom.

- Don't be sorry.
- I want grandchildren.

Just don't make
them in the middle

of the hallway of
the hotel, okay?

Okay. Have I ever mentioned

that your dhokra is the
best I've ever eaten?

You have ten minutes before
you're expected inside.

Sumit Uncle is already drunk

and Priya Masi is mad that
there's meat in the buffet.

- Come.
- Thanks, Mom.

How do you want to spend
the first ten minutes

as man and wife?

It'll take me 20 just to
get out of this thing.

Here.

This is for you.

Thanks?

I know you were saving
that money for a house,

and giving it to
me for the startup

was not part of the plan,

but I still wanted us to
have a place that's ours.

It's small, but... it's
got a lot of character.

You signed a lease without
even talking to me?

I thought it would be romantic.

But roses are romantic.

A lease is a big decision
that I made unilaterally.

We'll stick to the plan?

Yes. I will move
into your apartment,

and we'll make it ours.

And I will gracefully
back out of this lease.

Well, you are
married to a lawyer.

I got your back.

Hey, I think we just had

our first fight as
a married couple.

Oh, seems like a fitting way

to spend the first ten
minutes as man and wife.

Ready?

Yes. He knows, Mom.

Josh, you have to touch
the elder's feet as you...

He knows, Mom.

Excuse me for
wanting to make sure

this non-Indian boy doesn't
embarrass the family.

Come.

Okay, when you said this
would take 20 minutes,

- I assumed you were joking.

Can I just unravel you like
a roll of toilet paper?

- Okay.
- Oh. Right.

Kinda wanted to get
down on the cardboard.

Go wait in the other room.

- I have a surprise.
- Ooh.

Can I watch "Chopped"
while I wait?

Go.

Maybe I shouldn't have.

- No, it's fine.
- I wasn't expecting you to...

It's... it's too much.

I'll just go wear PJs.

Wait. You look beautiful.

I just want to
remember this moment,

how you look right now.

- You're such a cheeseball.
- You love this cheeseball.

How is it going?

Okay. That was intense.

You know, a mild fantasy

wouldn't be much to write
home about, would it?

Savin and Josh are both great.

- A good man is hard to find.
- And you found two.

I'm waiting to
pop the champagne.

Come on.

This isn't helping me
know who to choose.

You likely need more than a
glimpse of your wedding night

to choose a life partner.

Okay, what's next on
your life goals list?

- First kid by 28.
- You're right.

How could I forget?

Um, you should head outside,
you know, get some fresh air.

Yeah, go, go, go.

Why doesn't anyone tell you
morning sickness lasts all day?

Because everyone except
for us is terrible.

It's gonna be okay, all right?

Look, when the baby does
come, I'll get a real job.

You already gave
up Silicon Valley

so I can stay
closer to my family.

I'll go back to work

and my parents can
help with the baby.

You want to go back to work?

I wanna have electricity
and hot water.

When my app makes $100 million,

you can quit.

We'll have nannies for the kids.

You can open up that restaurant.

What's gonna be on the menu?

Hmm.

Peri peri chicken,

steak... but only ever
served rare, as God intended.

Of course. What else?

Cream...

Oh, no.

Talking about food
was a mistake.

No. I'm okay.

We're doing everything you said.

I wear red every Friday,

and we're fasting
three days a week.

She drinks tulsi
water every morning.

Still no baby?

No.

You were a good match
when you got married.

But now, the spirits
aren't in your favor.

It's not meant to be.

There has to be
something we can do.

- Anything.
- Can you give us a minute?

- I'll wait in the kitchen.
- Yeah.

I can do this.

But do we really want to?

The IVF alone was
brutal, and now this...

What are you suggesting?

We've been at it for two years.

Maybe it's time we just start
considering other options.

Adoption or a donor.

Or

Maybe we just don't have kids
at all and we travel more.

No.

Kids was always
part of the plan.

Plans can change.

That's not who I am, Sav.

It's Josh.

He's the one I'm
supposed to be with.

- Are you sure about that?
- I want to have a child.

And Savin can't give me that.

Okay, what about the
rest of your list?

Don't you want to see
how it all pans out?

Part of me just wants to make
a decision and be done with it.

Your fantasy is to figure out
the best version of yourself,

and I don't know that
you've done that yet, right?

Go have some dinner and relax.

Let the future unfold, hmm?

Hey. Hey, it's me. Um...

I need your help.

Hi. Yes, I ordered the steak,

but you cooked it one minute
too long for a medium-rare.

And I'd recommend fewer
capers in the butter sauce.

I'm actually about
to take a bath,

so if it could come
in about 40 minutes,

that would be great.

Thank you.

- Hi, Mom.
-

Why?

We're on our way, Mrs. Shah.

- This can't be happening.
- This can't be happening.

Hey, hey, hey, right now,
we just need to focus

on getting there,
okay? I got you.

- Nisha?
- It's okay, buddy.

Mommy's okay.

- Nisha!

Nisha?

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

It's all right.

It's just a fantasy.
You're gonna be okay.

Come on. Come on.

Come on, come on, come on.

Yeah, we're stuck.

- Well, it's okay.
- Just... you know what?

Just drive me home, and I'll...

I'll deal with my
car in the morning.

- It's fine.
- No. No, no.

We're stuck. Both of us.

- What are you doing?
- We're gonna make camp.

A nice, flat spot
right over that way.

What?

What, we're gonna spend
the night out here?

Are you crazy?

It's too dark to hike back now.

Might as well try
to get comfortable.

Here you go. Go
ahead, take this.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

I didn't ask to see this.

I wanted to know about Josh
and Savin, not about this.

Well,

hard times tell you
who people really are.

After my dad died,

Mel would get me an éclair
every year on his birthday

to celebrate him.

And I hate éclairs.

But my dad loved them.

And it was actually lovely

to have someone
there who knew and

cared enough to do that for me.

You can't hide from
the hard parts of life.

All you can do

is find the people who will
support you through them.

I have to face this, don't I?

Mm-hmm.

Well, you ready?

- Ready.
- Okay.

You know, I think
you're meant to do this.

I'm scared.

Hey, look.

Just be a tiny bit more
brave than you are scared,

and you'll be okay. Okay?

All right.

He was really lucky to have you.

I think it's time we
move Mom in with us.

Maybe we should talk
about this later.

She can't manage on her own.

Nish, we can move her
into a home nearby,

but she can't live with us.

We don't move our
parents into homes.

- But your mom hates me.
- She hates everybody.

I must go greet the family.

It's time for her to
come stay with us.

I can clear out my office.

Okay.

I think we should
look into adoption.

Really?

This is the reminder I needed

that... life is
short and unexpected.

And sometimes we need to pivot.

That's all it is. A pivot.

And there's no one I would
rather do it with than you.

Ahh... there we go.

I'm impressed.

- I'm very impressive.
- Okay. Relax.

And in the morning, we
should hike to my house.

What?

Well, well, I finally get to see

the famous Roarke
family hacienda.

- You've never been?
- I've never been invited.

Hmm. Well, it's much closer
than the resort from here.

Then that's what we'll do.

Salud.

- Salud, Javier.

They're six and five,

but they think they're
teenagers already.

I know what you mean, man.

My kids are better at
technology at three and seven

than I ever will be.

They're smart when
they aren't trying to

kill each other.

Nisha?

I heard you were
in San Francisco.

Well, less heard,
more read on "Forbes."

Yeah, I moved out
right after graduation.

Needed a change of
scenery after...

Anyway, I got hooked up with
a couple of the right people.

One thing led to another,
and the rest is history.

It was 2% a good idea, 98% luck.

The most humble
billionaire I know.

Nisha, how have you been?

Not reading enough
"Forbes," apparently.

You're still at
the same law firm?

No, I actually stopped
practicing a few years ago.

Well, that's amazing.

You finally opened
up that restaurant.

I knew you would take
the leap one day.

- I'm so proud of you.
- Restaurant?

Um, no, no, actually,
I stopped working,

you know, after we had kids.

It just didn't make
sense for both of us

to be so busy all the time.

Savin was so busy

with the hospital and
his private practice, so

it just made the most
sense for our family.

- Well, that's great.
- I'm sure you're a great mom.

Can I
get my former roommate

another drink?

- A prince among men.
- I'll go with you.

I want to see what
wines they have.

You look really
great, by the way.

So do you.

Why would you
embarrass me like that?

That was not my intention.

You called my app
a "little hobby."

- It was just a slip.
- I've had too much wine.

I knew you resented me for
not making as much as you.

- It's not about the money.
- I carry us financially.

And on top of that, you have
to make me the buzzkill?

You get to be the fun parent,
and I have to be the one

to tell you you can't
pull him out of school

on a random Tuesday to
take him to the zoo?

Two waters, please.

Whiskey, neat, double.

- What's going on?
- We're going under.

We're having a fight. We're...

Not us.

The app.

My "hobby" is dead.

I didn't know how to tell you.

You used to tell me everything.

Don't put this all on me.

We haven't been like
that in a long time.

Oh, I love this song.

- You two should go dance.
- I'll watch your drinks.

I don't dance, unfortunately.

I knew you couldn't really
be the whole package.

Well, you two go.

She's always looking
for a dance partner.

Oh, no, he doesn't want
to be saddled with me.

It would be my pleasure.

Stop!

My eyes are up here.

Um, where did you get that scar?

- Ah...
- Okay.

You don't have to talk about
it if it's too personal.

It's okay.

Oh, it's okay.

Before I came to the Island,
I was in the Air Force.

Lost some friends
in unthinkable ways.

I got injured.

And when I was sent home,

I thought the worst
of it was over, but

just couldn't adjust.

Never thought I'd feel
comfortable anyplace

ever again, then I
found the Island.

I'm glad the Island
can give that to you.

It's not the same
for you, is it?

I'm comfortable here.

Yeah, but it's not
what you would choose.

I did choose to be here.

And what we do...
is very important.

But...

I'm a little drunk,

so I'm just gonna...
go to bed.

Oh, okay. Oh, you don't want
to tell me your secrets?

- No, I don't.
- So hold on, hold on.

- No, I don't. I don't.
- Let me give it a shot.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

- Interesting.
- Yeah, are you ready?

- Ready.
- Here we go.

Vamos.

When you're stressed,

you wear your hair
in a ponytail.

And I try not to bother
you on those days.

Your favorite treat
is chocolate cake,

which you eat with your hands.

And when you're drunk,

your cheeks get all red
and you look sunburned.

You act so tough, but deep
down, you're a softie.

And the thing that you
hate more than anything

is asking people for help.

- That was thorough.
- Hmm!

I pay attention.

Yeah.

You know, people from all
over the world come here

asking you for help.

Why is it so hard for
you to do the same?

People make promises.

I-I've made promises, Javier.

Big promises, and...

I've broken them.

You know, I would've
done anything

for the guys in my
unit... Anything.

As far as I'm concerned,
you're my unit now.

If you ever need
anything, I'll be there.

No questions asked.

- Let's go to...
- Let's go to sleep.

Good night, Elena.

Good night, Javier.

It was really nice to
see you again, Nish.

Thanks for keeping
my drink warm.

Are you still in love with him?

Just up ahead.

Are you sure this
is the right way?

Hey, trust me. Okay?

Wait, was this your fantasy?

- Come on, Roarke.
- Just figuring that out?

Oh, so you wanted
me to want you.

Wait, what?

No, I wanted to
spend time with you.

Get to know you, talk. I swear.

- Well, that's...
- It's almost sweet.

It's nice to know you want me.

- I didn't say that.
- No, I heard you.

- No, I didn't.
- You said it.

- No, I didn't.
- You said... you said...

- I didn't say that...
- "You wanted me to want you,"

which means you want me.

You're annoying.

Super annoying.

- Okay.
- Keep telling yourself that.

I shouldn't have
asked you about him.

- That wasn't fair.
- We're married.

You can ask me anything.

Are you happy?

I don't love Josh.

But seeing him again, it
just... it reminded me

of who I used to be
before we got married.

The version of myself that was
happy, optimistic, and free.

I don't miss him. I miss me.

I didn't realize I
made you give that up.

- It's not you.
- It's just... it's all of it.

It's this whole life
we built together.

The day we got married,
I made those vows to you.

I promised I would
be a good partner.

- I haven't been.
- Of course you have.

I didn't even know your dream
was to open a restaurant.

When we get back home,
I am going to do better.

Let me try and fix this, please.

You've supported me
for all these years.

Now... it's my turn to
do the same for you.

Okay.

Do you want to stay
here for a little while

before we have to go back?

My company isn't the only
thing going under, is it?

When we get home, we should
probably talk about...

Separating?

I think so too.

Can we sit here for a while
before we have to go back?

Yeah.

Let's do that.

Are you any closer to an answer?

No.

The more I learn, the more
complicated each option gets.

Please, join me.

- Well, life is funny that way.
- Ha.

Have you ever been
at a crossroads?

- Ha. Oh, yes.
- A very similar one.

Before Mel, there
was someone else.

Meredith.

- Meredith?

Tell me more.

Oh, well, she was
just magnificent.

But, um

being with her would have meant
an entirely different life.

And mind you, this
was 50 years ago.

But if you could go back,
would you pick differently?

Not a chance.

And he gave me my children.

And without them, my
life would be incomplete.

Food.

Yeah.

- Here you go.
- Yes.

Yes, yes, yes.

Mmm.

Cake.

Forks?

Nah. No forks.

Mmm. Mmm.

Mmm.

I'm sorry.

Hey, hey, it's okay.

I never thought we'd
end up like this.

It's not your fault, Nish.

You knew what you
wanted when we met.

Instead of listening...
I proposed.

- We tried our best.

And it wasn't good enough.

Maybe now we can stop trying
to be people we're not

and go back to being friends.

It's the movers.

Mom, where's my red shoes?

- Wear the black ones.
- Mom?

I'm sorry.

Ms. Desai,

I'm afraid I have some bad news.

Your husband was running
across the street.

A truck took a wide turn.

I'm sorry, but he
didn't make it.

Hey, I need to get
back to the resort,

and you should get dressed
and get the plane ready.

Nisha should be
about ready to go.

Don't you think we
should talk about this?

Um...

Javier,

it was a lovely fantasy.

- A lovely fantasy.
- Oh...

But the thing about fantasies
is they... they end.

Come here.

- Hey.
- Oh, wow.

You look refreshed.
You sleep well?

- Oh, look, here's Nisha.
- Oh, okay.

Did you reach a verdict?

I have.

Me.

I'm the one I should pick.

Oh. So you're... you're not
going to marry either of them?

I wanted to know which
version of myself

would be better,

but with both Savin and
Josh, I lost myself.

I love them both, but
in different ways.

And in the end,

getting a divorce from
Josh was... a relief.

And Savin, losing him
was heartbreaking,

just awful.

But if I'm being
honest with myself,

maybe after the grief faded,

I'd feel a little bit
of relief as well,

just to be able to take
charge of my own fate.

So I am making the
last thing on my list

the first thing.

I am going to culinary school.

- Oh!
- Now, not when I'm 60.

I'm done with this list.

Hmm!

I am happy for you.

Try one.

- You added cinnamon.
- I did.

And I left them in
two more minutes.

- Now they're perfect.
- Mm-hmm.

Thank you both for everything.

I didn't know choosing myself
was an option until this.

I'm just so glad that
you got the answer

you were looking for.

Ruby, I have a few
things that I have to do.

Do you mind taking Nisha
down to the plane, please?

To Javier?

To the plane,

which incidentally is
operated by Javier. Yes.

Okay, sure. All right.

Great. Okay.

Please.

- Enjoy.

Bye-bye.

You really helped me.

Well, I hope you get
everything you want

in whatever order you
want it.

And I hope you find
another Meredith.
