How's my little Picasso?

Another masterpiece.

You're just saying that
because you're my dad.

-No, l'm not.
-Yes, you are.

No, l'm not.

Something's burning, Daddy.

God.

Daddy ruined dinner again.

He'll learn.

He's a good learner, honey.

-lt's wonderful.
-lt's heaven.

What will l do without you?

Come snuggle with me.

Jump in. Come on.

l'll tell you what.

l'll make you some guidelines.

So if you ever don't know what to do,
and Daddy doesn't know either...

...l'll still be there to hold your hand.

Can l use this?
Okay, hand me that pen.

You hold this side.

Hold this.

Okay.

There you are.

-Seven.
-And a half.

And a half.

The most important thing to do
is to play as much as you can.

Now, when you're 9...

...make sure Daddy lets you go
to sleep-away camp.

lt's a pretty important rite of passage
for a little girl.

When you're 1 2,
you'll start junior high...

...and l think it would be nice
if you ran for class office.

-How about treasurer?
-What about president?

President.

High school is very important.

l think you should have
your first boyfriend when you're 1 6...

...and he should be a nice boy
that you can have fun with.

-Should l marry him?
-No, no, no.

We'll call him number one.

Your first objective in college
is education.

Your second: love life.

Number two and number three.

You should have lots of experiences
before you get married...

...and then you'll have to decide
what kind of job you want.

You can be anything
you put your mind to.

-Doctor?
-Blood!

-Lawyer?
-What do they do?

They argue, and they get their way.

Sounds good. l'll be that.

Don't rush into law school.

Go to Europe if you want.

lt's a great place for romance too.

You'll be ready for a long-term
relationship with the fifth guy.

l'll be fine, and l'll marry ''six''
so you can rest.

Then how about number seven?

He's the one?
What will be different about him?

You'll see fireworks.

On the Fourth of July?

Different kind of fireworks.

You'll understand when it happens.

And, Amy?

His hands....

They'll fit.

Hey, sweet pea.

Mommy got very sick last night.

Come on, give Daddy a hug, huh?

Salad, check. Sandwich, check.
Quiche, check. Soup.

Here we go.

To the end of Leo.

Hey, Leo was a productive
relationship for me.

Amy, the guy cheated on you.

And now l know l'm not looking
for the kind of guy who cheats on me.

Come on, Leo was a necessary
life experience.

-My toast is to moving on.
-Oh, right, the time line.

Yeah, the time line.

You can't deny that everything
Mom told me to do was the right thing.

Summer camp, student council,
trip to Europe? l mean, come on.

lt's the magic of my life.

With a month to go before trial,
l'm depending on you guys...

...and gals.

Those of you attending the McNamara
conference, it's rescheduled for 9:00.

Wait, tomorrow's Saturday.

He means tonight.

l'm going to be here till midnight.

You wanted to make partner,
an unreal opportunity.

l know, l know.

l'm depending on you too.

l expect you to pull
an all nighter if you have to.

How am l supposed to get my beauty
sleep? l have a blind date tomorrow.

lt's called concealer. Put three dabs
under each eye, you'll look fabulous.

Great.

Hey, Jack?

Are you Jack?

Jack? Me? No.

Oh, gosh, l'm so sorry.

l'm meeting someone here,
and it's a blind date...

...who's already seven minutes late.

But, obviously, it's not you...

...so l'm sorry to have bothered you.

Hey.

Have fun.

Thank you. That's really sweet.

Oh, please!

Tennis, anyone?

Jack.

Seventy-one. Seventy-one?

Seventy-two.

-Onion with a schmeer and a decaf.
-Thank you so much.

Hey, l haven't seen poppy seed
for a few weeks.

Oh, Leo, yeah.

We won't be seeing poppy seed
any longer, thank God.

Hey, l've got some stuff
for your coworkers.

Peter, that really isn't necessary.

You were my first regular when we
opened. You deserve no less.

Yeah, but l'm starting to feel indebted.

Yeah?

Well, you know, there is something,
actually, l'm gonna ask you.

-lt's a wedding.
-What?

Yeah, l want you to come.
As a favor.

-What?
-You see...

...it's an old friend from school.

Long story, but l R.S.V.P.'d for two,
and l can't bear to go alone.

Ask that redhead girl that comes
in here all the time. She's cute.

l did. Yeah, she freaked
when l told her it was out of town.

-lt's out of town?
-Yeah, well...

...he's from Boston, his wife-to-be
has always had this fantasy...

...of getting married on Orcas lsland.

-Well, when is it?
-Three weeks.

That's plenty of time
to find a real date!

Look, Peter, l would be happy
to find you a real date, okay?

l know a lot of amazing women.

l'm late for work. l've gotta go,
but l will think on this.

Janey would be amazing.
She's got a great body.

Don't worry, l'll think about it.

Hi.

So was Jack everything
that you hoped for?

As a matter of fact, no...

...but what do you expect when
your dental hygienist sets you up...

...after your boyfriend of three years
cheats on you with his ex-wife?

l probably exuded that l wasn't
over him, which l am, over him.

Sorry.

Ninety-seven.

Here, why don't you
use my number.

Thank you.

So how was your date?

Wasn't really a date.

Oh, are you married?

When l'm married,
l'll still have dates.

With my wife.
Leave the kids with a sitter.

Oh, that's sweet.

l thought you had to rush off
to work.

Yeah, l did,
and then l just ran into...

...him.

l see.

So, what can l get you?

l'll have what she's having.

Okay. One onion with a schmeer
and a decaf.

-Caffeine makes me lose my focus.
-You know, me too.

The girl from the tennis club, she's
a classmate from business school.

-She's in town for--
-Business?

Yeah. lt's nice to see an old friend.
l just moved into town from Chicago.

My job takes so many hours,
l don't have time to meet people.

That's 3 bucks.

-Yeah, so l'll see you tomorrow?
-Yeah.

You're gonna love that.
Peter makes the best bagels in town.

Number 98.

-So, what's your name?
-Amy Myer.

Amy Myer, l am Daniel McCandles.

You actually like those things?

Couldn't live without it.
You should get one.

And give up the satisfaction
of crossing things out?

Not on your life.

There's always ''delete.''

And l'd love to get your number.

-There you go.
-Got it.

l don't even know
how to work it, but....

Here. Right there.

Hey, Maya, it's me, Amy.

Can you check my machine?
l think it's--

No, it's new. l think l plugged it--
l'm serious. l plugged it in wrong or--

Would you just--? Thank you.

Hi, it's Amy. Please leave a message
at the beep. Thank you.

Testing. One, two, three.

l believe the malfunction
is with the faculty of Daniel's brain.

-l gotta go.
-Bye. Love you.

You may cross ''check machine''
off your list.

Get your bagel and go to work.

Hi, Amy.

Hey, Dave.

Thank you.

Tough day?

l wish it was over.
l have to go back after dinner.

-No, you don't.
-Anyway, this case...

...is the biggest opportunity
of my career.

-l'm the youngest lawyer on it.
-Well, that's great, right?

Yeah.

Why do you seem so blue?

l do?

Well, there's this guy...

...Daniel. l don't know, l really...

...just thought that we connected...

...but apparently....

Why am l telling you? We should be
worried about your love life, not mine.

l'm serious.

You know, you need
to be getting out a bit more.

Amy.

Who knew that rollerblading
could be lethal?

There you go. Stretch it tight.

Next time, try using elbow pads
and a private instructor.

Can l come?

-Yeah.
-No.

l was doing fine.

My hands were full. l had to protect
the bagels when l lost my balance.

Oh, Janey, l've been meaning
to ask you...

...would you ever consider
going out with my bagel guy?

Don't know him well, but he's cute
and he manages the store.

You could get free bagels.

-l'm already taken.
-Nice try, though, Amy.

-All right, hand me the phone.
-No. No.

No, you're not checking
messages again.

Can't we just have a civilized,
relaxing afternoon?

Tomorrow, it will have been a week
since l gave him my number.

-Oh, a whole week.
-A week.

Libby!

-Libby!
-Watch the window!

Janey, give me the phone.

-Amy, what's your code?
-1 -2-2-1 .

-Raymond, you give--
-ls his name Daniel?

Tonight? l can't.

Tuesday? Oh, you know, 7 is a little
early for me to get out of the office.

Friday, l have plans.

Oh, Saturday would be great. Yeah.

Eight o'clock? Okay.

Okay, all right. Thanks. Bye.

Why are you playing hard to get?

l'm not playing hard to get.
lt's just laundry night tonight.

Anyway, it's too soon to say yes.
He waited a week to call me.

And Friday,
l have dinner with Dad.

She can't be mentally prepared
for a date on short notice.

l see.

l will not ramble.
l will not mention Leo.

l will not lose my cool.
l will have fun.

-Hi.
-Hi.

Wait a second, taste this.

Oh, chocolate strawberries.

These are just divine.

Sometimes, it's the little things in life
that mean the most.

So, what does
a venture capitalist do anyway?

l seek out unrealized potential,
and l invest in it.

l see something of value,
and l'm not afraid to go after it.

You know
what l'm talking about, right?

You mean, like, a company or...

...you know?

Forget companies.

l look at you and l see this beautiful,
accomplished woman...

...who doesn't even fully appreciate
all that she has to offer.

-l'm sorry, l can't do this.
-l don't understand.

lt's just, l don't....

-l don't.
-My ex.

-l'm not over him.
-You're over him, l can tell.

l'm not. We were together
for three years.

-l'm not ready.
-The best way to get over an ex...

...is by going out with other people.

l don't want you to take this
the wrong way...

...because l really like you...

...but l'm just not looking
for a boyfriend right now.

-lt's just the wrong time.
-Amy...

...why don't we just get
to know each other.

And we can take our time with this.

-That'd be okay?
-Yeah.

Okay.

-This is horrible!
-l'm still not quite following.

He's the one.
l mean, he's perfect.

He's solid and he's--

Well, he's the one.

You know this after
a three-hour date?

Prompt arrival, amazing dinner,
definite flosser.

Besides, you told me
l would know right away.

Like what Ray said
during your wedding toast.

-All it took was that kiss.
-At the gas station.

There were fireworks.

-Oh, God, this is huge.
-Right?

-Hey, does he golf?
-Honey, you don't golf.

Yeah, well, l'd like to,
but l don't have a partner.

But listen to me. We have to forget
about it now because it's complicated.

You complicate buying shampoo.
lf it's right, you've just got to go with it.

The timing.
lt's just not the right time.

-Of the month?
-Of my life!

-Right.
-The time line?

Come on, Amy, not everything
your mom suggested is so peachy.

-What are you--?
-Okay, your job, for instance.

What is wrong with my job?

You sneak out of the office
to paint plates, Amy.

lt's a release.

Think how proud my mom would be.
l'm on the road to making partner.

You guys, it was so incredible.
l mean, the fireworks were beautiful.

-They were red and green and just--
-Literally?

Yes, and my mom said
that there would be fireworks.

And there was moonlight
and dancing...

...and these colors
were just like ones...

...that l used to paint with
when l was a kid.

l felt like my mom was there,
you know, looking down.

So, what l'm gonna do is,
l'm just gonna date Daniel casually...

...until l find an interim boyfriend,
someone to fill in as number six.

Okay, how do you define ''boyfriend''?

Okay, say l'm with a guy
at an office party...

...and he says to his colleague,
''This is Amy, my girlfriend.''

That will seal the deal.

Okay, well, what if Daniel decides
to go out and get a girlfriend?

-No, he won't.
-He could.

You risk losing him by doing this.

-lmpossible.
-Okay, this is beyond stupid.

-Your mom would be ashamed.
-No, she wouldn't.

Maya, she would say, ''Amy, you need
to have one more experience.

You need one last hurrah before
you're ready for number seven.''

Don't you guys have
any desperate friends anymore?

l have two words for you:
dating service.

Dating service?

Dating service.

When l look at Woody and Soon,
l say, ''Bravo, my man.''

Three cheers for the old goat, eh?

More vino?

-l hope you won't mind feeding me.
-Excuse me?

l hope you won't mind feeding me.

And do you have
any upcoming office parties?

l don't work at an office.

You know,
l think there's been a mistake.

Relax, Amy.

l only look like a woman
on the outside.

lf you had seen these guys.
Well, people.

l'll get it.

Dating service. l can't believe people
find someone through those things.

What am l gonna do now?

Pass me the jelly.

This is pathetic.
l can't bear to hear any more.

Can't you just indulge me
for 1 3 more minutes?

-You scheduled in time for venting?
-What?

''Dear Amy,
last Saturday was amazing.

Hope it's the first of many. Looking
forward to seeing you. Daniel.''

He's perfect. He is perfect.

More than one sentence?
This man is bordering perfection.

l'll kill you if you blow this.

lf you really need a way to rationalize
this in your warped little mind...

...isn't there some guy
you didn't count?

Like Josh Schneider
in the ninth grade?

He was psychotic.
He stalked me.

Hey, what about Alex?

You want my boyfriend to be
the filler beau?

He have any friends he could
hook me up with?

Alex doesn't have friends.

All this is making me very hungry.

l need a--

Another bagel.

l would love to go
to that wedding with you.

-Great.
-Great.

lt's Saturday.

Okay. So, what time
will you be picking me up?

l don't know, around 8?

Okay, does that mean 7:45
or 8:1 5, 8:30?

Means around 8.

But are you the kind of guy that says
around 8 and then shows up at 1 0?

-l'll be there at 8.
-Great.

Can you believe McNamara has
demanded a 7 a.m. briefing Monday?

The man obviously
doesn't have a life.

We'll be prepping for it Thursday
and Friday night.

l can't Friday.
l have dinner with my dad.

At least it'll save us
from working the weekend.

Okay, l'll come back after dinner.

That's my girl.

Oh, my God!

Oh, Daniel!

-l am so....
-lt's okay. lt's okay.

-Don't--
-You get it.

That. Very interesting.

Yeah, it's my way of letting off steam.

-Hard day, huh?
-How did you know l was here?

l stopped by the office...

-...and a woman named Trish--
-Trisha.

Trisha said there was a good chance
of me finding you here.

Dinner?

That's a bit much,
to go all the way to Orcas lsland.

l don't know,
l think that sounds....

lt seems like a lot to ask
in exchange for a few bagels.

-Are you jealous?
-Of bagel guy?

No. l just thought...

...that maybe we could spend
a little time together this weekend.

You are just....

You are so sweet.

You're just amazing,
you know that?

Thank you for understanding.

You make it easy.

No, Daniel, l can't.

l just--
l'm sorry, wo--

-Would you mind if we just waited?
-For what?

Until--

Until we....

Get tested.

Yeah.

Yes, l would like that.

Do you mind?

lf it means being with you,
of course not.

Come here.

How about...

...l'll take you for a nice, late dinner on
Friday night wherever you want to go?

Friday night, l--

l have dinner with my dad.

So let me come.

And l couldn't imagine living anywhere
besides Chicago.

Not to mention what you hear about
the girls of the great Northwest...

...with their flannel and hiking boots.

Not exactly the kind of place
that you'd expect to find a woman...

...with vulnerability and drive.

And then l met Amy.

l'm not gonna embarrass
you by singing your praises.

l think your dad already knows
how great you are.

So do you think you'll move back?

l miss being so close to my parents...

...but there are so many
opportunities out here...

...and this is a beautiful part
of the world.

Yeah.

Yeah, l could really see myself
hanging around here for a long time.

How about dessert?

Sounds great.

l'm gonna help her.
No, sit.

-Want some coffee?
-Yes, please.

What do you think?

Come on!
What do you think?

Never have l met a boyfriend of yours
that l have liked so much.

He's not my boyfriend,
we're just dating.

What's the difference?

-He's the real thing.
-l know.

You could wait a long time to meet
a guy this perfect for you.

Sweetie, l'm happy for you.

Bathing suit, thongs, cover-up...

...dress-- Whoops.

Who's the couple with the leis?

Those are my best friends,
Maya and Ray.

-ls this your mom?
-Yeah.

And that's me at 7.

-And what's that?
-This is for napping on the ferry.

Come on, let's hit the road,
bagel man.

Oh, God.

Usually, l catch up
on sleep Friday nights...

...but l had to work late last night.

-Amy.
-Daddy.

l was down the block,
and l thought....

l'm sorry,
are you going somewhere?

Yes, we are. We're going
to Orcas lsland for the night.

-This is Peter. Peter--
-Connor. Pete Connor.

-Bernie Myer.
-Very nice meeting you.

lt's not a date.

Not that there's anything wrong with
her, it's just that l barely know her.

-And you're going out of town together?
-lt's a long story.

Sounds like a long story.

lt's complicated.
Okay, l met her at the--

l work at a bagel store,
she'll be well-fed.

And you can explain everything.
Excuse me, very nice meeting you.

What happened to Daniel?

l'm trying to turn Peter into number six
so that Daniel can be number seven.

-Amy, you're not--
-What?

You meet a nice guy and
jeopardize the whole thing.

l can't talk about it right now.
l don't have time.

Let go of that time line.
Go with your gut.

You're telling me l'm wrong for
cherishing the advice Mom gave me...

...when l have had so many amazing
experiences because of her.

And by the way, you've experienced
nothing since she died.

You don't even date.
lt's been 20 years.

You're the one who has to let go,
not me, so back off.

Amy?

Amy, time to wake up.

-How long was l asleep?
-The whole way. lt's decaf.

-l guess l wasn't very good company.
-lt's okay.

Sorry.

l thought you might like
to see the view.

-Yeah, sure.
-All right.

-l spilled coffee in your car.
-lt's okay.

There's some things
we need to talk about.

l told everybody that you were
more than a date, that you were my....

That you were my girlfriend.

-Your girlfriend?
-Yeah, l know it's low...

...and sort of a manipulation
and everything, but....

What were you planning on doing
about the room situation?

lt wouldn't look good
if we were in separate rooms.

-l'll need the bed.
-Fine. l'll sleep on the floor.

-What about privacy?
-No problem.

-Okay, l'll be your girlfriend.
-Thank you.

-Yeah.
-Thank you.

Look, we can pretend
that we're in a fight.

-We don't have to be affectionate.
-We don't fight, sweetheart.

Actually,
''sweetheart'' doesn't suit you.

What do you like better,
''honey'' or ''petunia muffin''?

-Petey's fine.
-Petey.

Okay, Petey. Do you want
to tell me why you have to lie to--?

-Sure.
-Oh, are you gay?

Oh, no.

-Come on.
-No.

Come on, l'm your girlfriend, Petey.
Tell me the truth.

l got left at the altar about a year ago.

Fourteen months, actually.

-You still love her?
-No, l hate her.

lt's just, it hasn't been
exactly easy for me.

And l don't want my overly concerned
friends to still think l'm suffering.

Well, they won't.

They won't, because l am going to be
so madly in love with you.

l'm going to be so into you that she's
going to be sick with jealousy. Regret.

-l think we should just keep it low-key.
-Oh, no, no.

Low-key is going to get you nowhere
in this situation, Petey.

-All right, cheers. Thank you.
-Cheers.

Okay, l'm going to need
some historical data...

...if we're going
to make this convincing.

l don't know
where you went to school.

-We're gonna be fine. We'll wing it.
-No, come on.

-Like, what's your favorite color?
-Brown.

-Brown? That's a little grim.
-That's where l went to college.

-And you work in a bagel shop?
-Yeah, well, you know.

-Okay, listen, where are you from?
-Boston.

-Siblings?
-Older sister, younger brother.

-Names?
-Look at who's here.

-Connor!
-Hey, there. Oh, look at you.

Look how beautiful....

Holy cow!
Look at you, Mr. Handsome.

-Hi.
-Hi.

-The teeth all straightened out. Nice.
-l got the braces off.

-Hello.
-Hi.

-How are you?
-Good.

We've been dying to meet you.

Oh, well,
l've heard all about all of you guys.

You guys better check in. There's
a croquet tournament in 20 minutes.

You're in luck because he was on
the winning side in Sri Lanka in '92.

He's really quite good.

-Hi.
-Hi.

-Hi.
-Hi

Wow, this is....

-You look great.
-You too.

Thanks.

-God, this is awkward.
-Yeah.

l thought we should get this out
of the way before the big ceremony.

l'm Alissa, in case you haven't
already guessed.

l'm Amy. Well, l'm personally glad
that you dumped Peter...

...because otherwise,
l never could've claimed him.

-Hey, l'm David.
-Yeah.

Hi, and l'm personally glad
that we can be adults about this.

Yeah.

-Yeah.
-Yeah, till tomorrow.

So are you an employee
at the bagel store too?

-She's a lawyer.
-Oh, wow. Wow.

You must not have a lot of spare time.
l know how hard young lawyers work.

Yeah, well, that's nothing
compared to how hard l had to work...

...to get Peter to go out with me.
He was dating two girls at the time.

-Yeah.
-Well, l'm a lawyer...

...l eventually get what l want.

Yeah.

-Croquet.
-So we'll see you in there.

-Croquet.
-Oh, thanks.

You make her carry stuff?

God, it's so beautiful here.

Yeah. Yeah.

You were right, you know, about
playing it really intense between us.

Right now she's trying to convince
that guy she's happy for you...

...but l guarantee you that she isn't.

Oh, this is my favorite hotel ever.

Oh, my God.
This is my favorite treat on earth.

-Oh, chocolate-covered strawberries.
-You have to try one.

-But l insist.
-l'd much rather watch you eat them.

Now, what is this?
''To Amy, the simple pleasures in life.

Thinking of you. Love, Daniel.''

-What?
-Who's Daniel?

Just this guy l'm-- Oh, you met him
at the bagel shop. Remember?

Oh, yeah, the slick guy.
''l'm having what she's having.''

He is textbook for how to get a girl.

-Oh, my God.
-Well....

Daniel, it's Amy...

...and as l speak...

...l am eating the most
divine strawberry.

That was just so....

-Romantic and thoughtful.
-Romantic and thoughtful.

Okay, we're going to play croquet...

...but l would love to talk to you...

...so just give me a call.

555-01 98.

Okay? Bye.

We've gotta go.
l know you're in bliss...

...but it'd be lovely
if you'd get out.

-Let's go pour it on, Petey.
-Yeah.

Grab a club.

-Hey, easy.
-Thanks for joining us.

-The game's in 1 0 minutes.
-Here we go.

-There she is.
-Red ball, red ball.

Okay, game. Not girl, game.
Focus.

l haven't seen you look at a girl like
this since Susie Panakopoulos.

-Yeah, she was something else.
-She was on fire.

She's a lot-- But her stroke needs
some work. Let me fix that.

-Where are you going?
-You start off playing hockey...

...now you're into golf?
The game is croquet.

-Okay.
-Okay, so--

-What?
-Just keep your-- Put it--

First of all, what you have to do is--
Straddle the ball.

God, where is she?
This would make me cringe.

Okay, so there it is.
Grab it like that.

But keep that-- And address the ball.
Just swing and tap.

-Swing and tap.
-Yeah, swing back and tap.

-Yeah, swing back and tap.
-And tap.

-Okay.
-Okay.

-All right.
-Okay.

-A simple swing.
-Oh, yeah!

-Did l hit you?
-You've got power, woman.

Way to take one for the team.
Walk it off, big stud. Walk it off.

All right, we're not practicing anymore.
Let's go. Game time.

How about this? The loser foots
the bill for a house in Nantucket.

-All right, sounds good.
-This is my only chance for girl talk.

-l am stealing Amy for a private match.
-Oh, no. No, come on.

-What?
-l can handle it.

-You get her all the time.
-Okay.

Okay, boys for beers. You go first. Go.
Come on, walk it off.

So l need details.

Start from the beginning.
Like, what'd you do on your first date?

A hike. Yeah, we went on a hike.

l rented a vintage Caddy.
We drove around all night.

-Lovely.
-You spent how much on a car...

...and you drove around?

And it was a beautiful day,
and the sky was blue...

...and the air was crisp,
and Pete packed a picnic.

There were bagels, of course...

...and he made a chicken potpie.

Peter made a chicken pot pie?

Well, it was overcooked.
You know what l mean?

So did you nail her
in the back of the car?

Does she look like a girl
that would do that the first date?

On the picnic table?

l didn't know people
had sex on first dates.

Yeah, well, l couldn't control myself.

There's just something about him.

l don't know...

...he's got this charm
that sort of sneaks up on you...

...and then you're hooked.

lt was a really tough year for him, Amy.
He was so depressed.

Steven and l were really worried,
which was driving him mad...

...because we kept calling him.

You're the best thing
that ever could have happened.

Alissa really crushed him, huh?

What a gold digger.

l guarantee if he hadn't have
quit his job, they'd be married now.

-Which job?
-Bear Stearns.

Oh, that job.

Thought she scored on the up-
and-coming Wall Street wonder boy...

...and it freaked her out when he quit.

But he's so modest, he probably never
really told you how well he was doing.

You're right, he didn't.

Okay, l've gotta steal my girlfriend.
We're going kayaking.

What? Kayaking?

So after the thing with Alissa...

...l needed to get out of Manhattan.

l'd already left my job
from hell on Wall Street...

...so l just decided, ''You know what?
l'm gonna coast for a while.''

-That's pretty courageous.
-Have you ever kayaked before?

-Yeah.
-Helps if the paddle goes in the water.

-l tried it at summer camp.
-And how long ago was that?

l was 9.

Anyway...

...l wanted a better quality of life.
l wanted some life experience.

l was tired of working all the time.
Never had time to experience anything.

-Aren't you scared?
-Of what?

l don't know.

Not knowing exactly what
you're gonna do with your life?

No, not really.
l figured l had time to figure it out.

Does this mean l'm not always
gonna get free bagels from you?

Possibly.

l hate my job.

-Most people do.
-Yeah...

...but l've never told anyone
that before.

-Why'd you tell me?
-l don't know.

-Say it again.
-l hate my job.

Come on, louder than that.

l hate my job!

-l absolutely abhor...
-Don't do that. Don't do that.

-...being a lawyer!
-No, sit down, sit down. Just sit down!

That's great. Great.

Towels?

Oh, great. Smart.

Wow.

You look beautiful.

-Thanks. So do you.
-Thank you. lt's the robe.

-l know, it's flattering to my figure.
-Look at me.

What?

Oh, you know what?
One of your sideburns...

...is just ever so slightly longer.

Do you want--? l can--
Here, l can fix it for you.

Okay.

-Okay. All right, don't move.
-l won't.

Perfect.

-Are you okay in those heels?
-Yeah. Well, no, but yeah.

-Hold my hand.
-What?

-Do you mind?
-No.

Okay, we're gonna sit on the left.

Have a seat. Sorry.

-You can let go if you want to.
-Oh, sorry.

Are you warm enough?

Congratulations.

l have been carrying this man
since the second grade...

...when Annie Stipnowski
kicked him in the shins.

lt is now your turn.

Loosen the bone, Wilma,
take the tie off.

-Thattagirl.
-Your dress is so beautiful.

-Oh, yeah, and this veil is gorgeous.
-lsn't she lovely?

-Babe, we should make the rounds.
-Oh, no.

-See you guys in a bit.
-Kiss some babies, shake hands.

-Please use your cameras.
-Yes, let me.

No, no, no. You can't take a picture.

No, give it to me.
l want to get one of you guys. Let me.

-Let me get one.
-l got them. Okay, here, fine.

Okay, cuddle.

-A sauce tie for the sauce guy.
-ls that what it is?

One more. Okay.

Hungry. Chicken for dinner.

-So, Peter?
-Yeah.

-What?
-How do you make chicken potpie?

-l've always wanted to know.
-Yeah.

Remember, honey?
You made me a picnic.

-Oh, yes.
-On our first date.

He cooked? He made?
You made? Bull. l call bull.

-No. Chicken potpie.
-You cooked?

Oh, yeah. ''Chicken potpie,
and l don't care.'' What l did--

Want me to show you
how you cook it?

You put a bunch of ingredients
in one pot, like this. lt's simple.

Oh, color.

And then you cook it at 50, 45--
450 degrees.

-450? Oh, that's what you did wrong.
-No.

Nice. Lovely.

That's the one.

That's why it burned
because it's supposed to be at 350.

l see where l went wrong.

-What about the Cadillac?
-Well, you know, the Caddy l rented.

-When we went--
-We drove it to the hike?

Yeah, we drove it to the hike.

-Good times.
-Good times.

-So, guys?
-What?

Now that we're alone.

-When are you guys getting married?
-Us?

We're not. l mean, not that, you know--
We're not. lt's just that we're....

-Have you met the Connors?
-No.

Oh, God. Peter, your mom
is going to love her.

Her dad,
he's a bit suspicious of me.

But her mom is dying for us
to get married. Dying for it.

-Really?
-Yeah.

l don't know if it's me she likes or it's
the idea of a big, extravagant wedding.

Ladies and gentlemen,
get the bride and groom...

...out onto the floor by themselves
for their first dance in wedding bliss.

-No dancing.
-Come.

Why is there always dancing?
l'm drinking. l'm drinking.

-You all right?
-Yeah, yeah.

-What did l--? Did l say something?
-lt's just, my mom died when l was 7.

-l'm so sorry. l had no idea.
-lt's okay.

l'm really sorry.

-Do you want to dance?
-Yes.

-Okay. l'm so sorry.
-That's okay.

-What was your mom's name?
-Rachel.

Rachel. She was a beautiful woman.

You look just like her.

-Want to get some fresh air?
-Yeah.

-lt's beautiful out here.
-Sit over here.

-On the rock? Okay.
-Give me your hand.

-Look at you. You're amazing.
-Agile.

No, l'm very impressed
you can walk in heels like this.

There are very few women
that can do this, climb a rock.

Ever thought of rock-climbing
with heels?

l'm having a harder time
than you are. Sorry.

l'm having a harder time
than you are. Sorry.

-ls this all right?
-Yeah.

-Watch yourself.
-No, l'm good. This is very comfortable.

-Are you sure?
-Yes.

-Would you like champagne?
-Sure.

-l'll try to get up here.
-That would be nice.

-Thank you.
-You're welcome. There we are.

-l didn't break it.
-Cheers.

So my next question.

God, l didn't realize
you're such a curious person.

Well, normally, l'm not.

-What?
-But...

...how did you handle it?

-Seven and, you know, everything.
-Well...

...l don't know. At that age, you can't
really intellectualize anything, so....

You know, a place like heaven,
there's no question that it exists.

So whenever l wanted
to see my mom...

...l'd just...

...close my eyes,
and then there she'd be.

And she'd hold my hand,
and we'd have...

...great conversations.

You probably think that's
totally immature or idealistic.

No, no, no.
No, it makes perfect sense.

And you know what?
You should never lose that.

She's a part of you.

Thanks for understanding.

-Most people tell me l need to let go.
-Oh, no.

You know, l feel kind of bad
about lying to your friends.

Yeah.

We could stage a fight.
That way they won't be shocked...

...when they find out we didn't last.

Who says we won't?

Well....

Wow.

Did l step on your foot?
l am so sorry.

Watch yourself.

-Are you okay?
-Yeah.

Daniel? Hi. Good morning.

Afternoon.
Yeah, that's what l meant.

Oh, you know, it was fine. lt just went
later than l thought it would.

Tonight?

Yeah. Yeah, that'd be great.
Oh, that sounds cool.

Do you want me to just--?
Should l meet you there, or--?

Yeah. Okay, great. l will see you then.
Yeah, we've got to go check out.

Okay, bye.

Hi.

l have to pee.

Hurry up and pack. We're meeting
Lara and Steve for breakfast.

-So let's not linger here or anything.
-No, we won't.

There's this place l want
to take you.

lt has the most amazing
funnel cakes.

No trip to Orcas is complete
without them.

After that, we'll come back here
and watch the sunset.

Nothing lifts the spirits more
than being here...

...and watching the sun set.

Look, Peter, you can't just plan
the whole day without consulting me.

-l mean, l--
-Thanks for getting out of bed in time.

-Yeah. Thank you for waiting.
-Sorry.

Good morning. Afternoon.
What time is it?

We remember how it is in a new
relationship, stuck in romantic hotel.

We figured you'd be spooning all day,
and we'd never see you.

We were gonna take
the ferry to the other islands.

-But can we have a rain check?
-Yeah.

-We fly out of Seattle on the 1 8th.
-Let's do it then.

There's this great old hotel,
the old Excelsior.

They have great high tea,
and l promised Lars that l'd take her.

-Why don't you join us. The Excelsior.
-Wonderful.

-They have great high tea.
-On the 1 8th?

-Eighteenth, 3:00.
-Okay, cool.

Three o'clock no good?

No, it's okay.
Good, so we'll do 3:00 on the 1 8th.

Three o'clock on the 1 8th.
The four of us on the 1 8th at 3:00.

lt was so good to see you.

-Don't hold too long.
-Okay, sorry about that.

Be good to him. He's the best.

You do what you can, right?
And l'm gonna get Susie's number.

-Good, okay.
-ln case this doesn't work out.

See you guys later.

You have dinner tonight
with Daniel, Maya and Ray.

-l tried to tell you l had plans.
-No, it's okay.

l should probably get you
back into town.

-Thank you.
-Thanks.

That was amazingly accurate.
Would you like to do my shirt?

Need some help there?

-You got it?
-l've got it. Thank you.

-lt's good. lt's fine.
-Okay.

-Forget it.
-Why are you trying to push me away?

Last night...

...was make-believe.

Well, yeah, it started out that way.
Yeah, sure.

And then it changed.
lt caught me totally by surprise.

-lt was great.
-l was drunk.

-So?
-lt was a mistake.

lt was incredible. lt was passionate.

You're making more of this than it is.

Why?

l....

l don't get it. l don't understand.
Why?

-Okay, you want the truth?
-Please, l'd love the truth.

You remember how l told you
how connected l am to my mom?

-Sure.
-Well, l didn't tell you the whole story.

So you channel her
by drawing a line on a place mat?

All right, sorry.

And...

...you are number six.

Wow.

My God.

Amy, you were 7.

-So?
-So she was just, you know...

...giving you something
to hang on to...

...to help you cope with losing her,
not to burden you for life.

-l have not been burdened.
-Yeah, but you of all people...

...should realize that life
is not that predictable.

Look at how your mother died
at a young age.

There are just so many incredible,
wonderful things you can't plan for...

...that just happen,
that you don't put on a list.

You know, it's--

See, the problem with a time line is,
it doesn't allow you spontaneity.

You know? lt doesn't allow you
to take chances.

l....

-l have taken plenty of chances.
-Oh, yeah? Prove it.

Take a chance with me.

Look....

lt's just not gonna go
any further with us.

All right, l have--
Can l ask you one more question?

Yeah.

What do you do now?
What happens after number seven?

What do you mean?

Well, are you gonna have kids now
or get a doctorate, climb Mount Fuji?

-What? What are you gonna do?
-l....

l don't know, it ends.

That's gonna be a big change for you,
going through life without a checklist.

Come on.

Let's go.

Oh, shit.

-All right, l need your shirt.
-Forget about it.

-l'm a mess. Come on.
-You look fine.

Peter, will you just give me
your shirt?

Just--
Whatever.

-Thank you. Close your eyes.
-We just made love.

-l've seen everything there is to see.
-Just close them.

What are you, 5? Fine. Fine.
Psycho adolescent.

Shoot!

-l thought that was you.
-Hi!

Hi.

Oh, God, we had car trouble...

...and then l got syrup on my shirt.

-Can l open my eyes?
-Yes, of course.

Yes. Peter, you remember Daniel.
Daniel, Peter.

Thanks for getting her back safely.

l handled her with care.

-Well. Yeah.
-Thanks.

l called you on my cell phone.
Maya and Ray were a little worried.

Wow, you look incredible.

So l'll just see you
at the store, okay?

-Bye.
-l'm sorry.

l missed you last night.

-You did?
-Yeah.

Your keys, sir.

-Thank God.
-l rescued her.

l thought, ''Shipwrecked ferry,
holdup in a mini-market.

Who is Peter?
Can we trust him?''

-l'm five minutes late.
-Exactly.

Oh, you--

-You look amazing.
-Really?

The hostess said
to give her a second.

Why don't we get you guys
a drink while we wait, huh?

Martini? Good.

-Daniel, do you golf?
-Yeah, it's my favorite game.

-How'd it go?
-Oh, you know, it went.

Then this stupid charade
better be over.

l'll die if you blow it with this guy.

l never thought you'd be
with someone we actually liked.

God, Amy, he's perfect for you.

You think?

Really?

-Amy, l like this guy.
-You do?

Yeah.

There you go.

-Cheers.
-Cheers.

Table's ready.

-l have good news.
-What's that?

l got my test results.

Oh, are you taking a class
or something?

No, l mean for you and me.

l can't believe you picked this.
lt's Maya's favorite restaurant.

Every year we come.

l wouldn't think of taking
you elsewhere.

-This is unbelievable.
-Oh, my God.

-These crab cakes are delicious.
-Oh, yeah?

How do you even make crab cakes?

That's a good question.

You take some of this
and then a little bit of this....

Like that.

And you just mush it all together.

Amy.

That's a good one.

That's a lot of color.

l'll make some tea.

Okay.

No.

l want you.

Let's try that again.

Okay.

Can you just drop me off
in the bathroom?

-l gotta go.
-Yeah, yeah.

l'll be right back.

-Hurry, hurry, hurry.
-All right.

Hey.

Hi.

-l thought you left.
-No.

How are you?

Terrible.

How did l fall asleep
on you last night?

l mean, you've got
a comfortable bed, but....

What was l--?

God, you look beautiful
in the morning.

Daniel, let's do
something crazy today.

-What are you talking about?
-l don't know.

Let's play hooky.

That sounds so tempting...

-...but l gotta go to work.
-No, forget work.

Come on, it's sunshine in Seattle.

Let's go out and take a walk
or jump in a kayak or--

-You kayak?
-Well, not very well, but l'm learning.

Look, l've got a 9:00 conference call
that l can't miss.

Don't you have some meetings
or something?

Me and a dozen others. No one's
going to even notice l'm gone.

Let's do it on Saturday.

l want to do it today.

-lt's important.
-Amy.

l've got a commitment l'm responsible
for today, and l can't back out on it.

And l think, of all people,
you would understand that.

l gotta go.

But l'm gonna see you
tomorrow night, right?

All right.

Cocktail attire.
l'll be here at 7. Okay?

Sharp.

And go to work.
Do what you do best.

-Have you seen--?
-Peter told me you'd be by for this stuff.

Here you go.

-Where is he?
-Don't know.

Haven't seen him since
he dropped this off.

He's the boss.

-Can l get you anything?
-No. No, thanks.

Daddy?

Hey, it's good to hear your voice.

Well, listen.

l'm really sorry about what l said
on Saturday. l didn't--

l didn't mean it.

Listen, l'd love to see you.

Yeah, now would be great.

No, you were right, sweetheart.

l haven't set a very good example.

-l've held on for far too long.
-No, you're the best, Dad.

You know, on top of all her virtues,
Mom had very good taste in men.

lt's just...

...she's held my hand my whole life,
and now she's letting go, and l just....

Sweetheart, maybe it's time.

l'm just so confused.

lt's okay to be confused.

Your mother...

...she was very, very wise, Amy.

And there's a reason why she ended
your time line when she did.

She probably would've gone on
to number 2 7...

...if she hadn't been so damn tired.

Number seven, it's just a metaphor
for finding the man of your dreams.

But the important thing
and the wonderful thing is...

...it's your choice.

You get to pick number seven.

l love you, sweetheart.

Gentlemen, l have a date here.
l'm sorry.

Take it easy.

Sorry.

So....

l haven't given my official
resignation yet...

...but l'm leaving the practice.

Are you going out on your own?

Well, l'm weighing a lot
of options right now...

...but law isn't among them.

Amy, l'm sure that it...

...was nice to take a couple
days off and relax...

...but it doesn't mean that you have
to do something so rash.

lf you need some space, you need
to relax, take a little bit of time off...

...how about you take a vacation
with me?

We can take a trip
wherever you want to go.

When we get back to the city, you'll be
ready to get back to the office and--

-No, that's not--
-Hello, Daniel.

-Bryce, how are you?
-Good.

Bryce Saunders,
meet Amy Myer, my....

-Pleasure.
-Swedish meatball?

My girlfriend.

How about a refill?

Oh, love one, thank you.

Amy, would you like another
glass of wine?

How about a shot?

-Of what?
-Anything.

l think we're seated
together for dinner.

Great, we can get
to know each other.

Would you just excuse me--
Us, for a minute, please?

That was my boss.
What are you doing?

You just called me your girlfriend.

-That's okay, isn't it?
-That makes you number seven.

-What?
-Never mind.

Amy....

l know we've only dated
for a few weeks...

...and l know you weren't ready
in the beginning...

...but l really want this.

l really think that we should
make a commitment.

l mean, look at us.

We're so much alike.
We're a match made in heaven.

We're not.

You think that l'm perfect for you...

...because of everything that you see
on the surface of me.

But, Daniel, so much of that is what
l wanna change in myself.

l don't wanna be so regimented.
l don't wanna go to a job that l hate.

l wanna be daring, and l wanna learn
to take risks and--

l don't know.

l like you just the way you are.

You are such a good guy, Daniel.

You're kind, and you're giving,
and you do all the right things.

But l need to be with someone...

...who pushes me to be
a better person.

Someone that l can grow with.
Someone who's my partner.

Yeah, of course.

l mean, we've never even held hands.

No, l'm sorry.

-l'm sorry.
-l'm sorry.

Your drink, sir.

You didn't mean it literally, did you?

Ma'am.

Hi.

Amy.

-What are you doing here?
-l was invited, remember?

-Peter should be here any second.
-He told us.

You were never a couple.

But that's not necessarily true.

lt's okay.

We just feel bad we put
so much pressure on him...

...that he had to lie to us.

-Good acting job, though.
-But it wasn't.

Hey, no hard feelings.

lf you still wanna join us,
you're welcome.

Thanks, but l actually-- l'd really
just kind of like to talk to Peter.

He's not coming.

Why? Where is he?

He went back to the island.

Excuse me.

Can l help you?

Yeah. l'd like....

l'll have a cup of tea
and a chocolate tart.

l'll have what she's having.

-Hi.
-Hi.

-How did you know l was gonna--?
-Lara and Steven--

-You went?
-l wanted to tell you that...

...l quit my job.

-Really?
-Yeah.

Well, you know, we're...

...looking for another manager
at Brighton Beach Bagels.

-Really?
-l'm in charge of the hiring.

Yeah, we're looking for somebody
who's organized...

...punctual, has a fond appreciation
for bagels...

...and a law degree would just
clinch the deal.

They fit.

What do you want to do
with the rest of your life?
