Good morning, Frankie.

Morning.

Listen to this:

"From the richest countries to the very poor ones,

huge corporations have big influence over people's lives,

the environment and even their democratic processes."

It's the end of civilization as we know it.

No it's not.

And sure they have an impact, but so do we.

You help underserved children learn

and I help people sustainably garden!

We're the underdogs, and underdogs always win.

Don't you have a meeting with one of the big bads today?

A property development company.

Woof.

Debrief over dinner tonight?

Definitely.

Ross can't come to dinner, so it's just you and me tonight.

Oh, so I don't have to be the third wheel?

Come on, you have to let me set you up.

Ross has a lot of cute friends.

Cute's overrated. I want someone with spirit.

Okay, well he has spirited friends too, Miss Picky.

I'll think about it.

That's what you always say!

Nothing works when you force it.

I want things to happen naturally.

Liv, you are the most nurturing, loving person I know.

You take better care of plants

than most people take care of themselves.

You deserve a partner, a teammate.

Don't worry about me, okay?

I will find my person soon enough.

Or maybe he'll find me...

- Here you go. - Thanks.

So we're still on schedule.

We should be good to start construction in 30 days.

Okay good.

We just have to make sure the current habitants know

they have to vacate the premises.

There might be some resistance.

Maybe even picketing.

Yeah, I was a little worried about that.

Especially the neighborhood response.

I mean we are, technically,

tearing down something somewhat sacred.

But it's for the greater good. People need affordable housing.

Exactly.

A community garden is not a necessity.

Sure it's nice, but a roof over your head?

Now that's truly essential.

They might us in the beginning,

but they will love us in the end.

Speaking of love...

Anything going on in that old heart-shaped box of yours?

Other than a heart beat?

No.

I mean sure, I meet women, but nothing sticks.

You should get on the apps.

That's how I met Celia, and she's great.

There are so many sparks, I feel like--

I feel like I'm on fire half the time.

You should probably see a doctor about that.

That's very funny.

Dude, you've only known her for a week.

Sometimes that's all it takes.

I'm glad for you, really, I am.

But it's just not for me.

I want to meet someone the old-fashioned way.

Through happenstance. Leave it up to fate.

- Okay. - Yeah.

But if fate worked, then 40% of Americans wouldn't be online.

And there wouldn't be over 2,500 dating sites.

How do you know this kind of thing offhand?

I'm not just a research analyst for affordable housing,

I'm also a research analyst for the heart.

What other info do you got?

Well, statistically speaking,

weddings are a great place to meet someone.

I'm going to a wedding this weekend.

But they come after bars and cafes.

No one.

At work?

Nah, dating people you work with gets messy.

Agreed, also the gym.

Is this your way of telling me that I need to work out more?

Are you kidding me?

I'm clearly a swole one and I can't have you changing that.

Dude, the only muscle you have with any vigor is your brain.

Well, that's the one that counts!

Hi!

- Hey Gordy. - Hi!

Beautiful!

All right, is that lined up there?

Yeah.

Hi, can I help you?

I'm Brian Wolf from RHDC.

Olivia Owens.

Executive Director of Global Ground Community Garden.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

Your garden is beautiful.

I knew you were coming today,

but I didn't realize that you'd be doing this.

Yeah, we have been approved to begin construction in 30 days.

This is just our way of letting the public know.

Can I speak to you privately?

Sure, yeah.

Perry, just fix that there.

Yeah, got it.

- Right this way. - Okay.

I was under the impression that this was still

an ongoing negotiation with the city, Mr. Wolf.

Brian, please.

Look, I guess there's been a misunderstanding.

The city has approved the sale of the land

and they issued a permit for us

to begin construction next month.

This garden is a pillar in the community.

I mean we're basically a neighborhood landmark.

Surely, there's some way we can compromise.

You can't possibly need this whole plot.

You'll be cutting down trees that have been here for decades.

Unfortunately, it's out of my hands.

I'm just the ideas guy.

The plans have been finalized and approved.

What am I supposed to tell everyone?

You don't have to say anything. That's what the sign is for!

These are my friends and co-workers we're talking about.

I have to say something.

Tell them that RHDC is a non-profit

committed to improving the quantity and quality

of affordable housing opportunities.

Which the city is in desperate need of!

That's a sale's pitch.

This garden has done so much for the community.

Did you know that it was a vacant lot full of trash

when my mom found it?

And now people have access to fresh fruits and vegetables.

Can't you build somewhere else?

We can't, no.

This is the only publicly-owned plot of land in the area

zoned to build lower cost houses.

There's gotta be some way around this.

I mean, look at all the people enjoying the garden!

Learning about the environment, about sustainability,

having a respite from their stressful daily lives.

This place brings happiness

to every single person who walks by.

I can see that, but I'm also thinking about

all the people who need homes at an affordable cost.

They don't have the luxury of enjoying

the beauty of your garden because they're just trying

to get by and survive.

I'm sorry to say, but it's a done deal, Olivia.

Miss Owens.

My apologies, Miss Owens.

It's up to you whether you want to be cooperative or not.

I hope you have a nice day.

He treated the garden like it was disposable.

Like it wasn't an essential part of the community.

All he cares about are dollar signs.

But affordable housing is non-profit, too, right?

He's not a regular property developer.

No one in non-profit is about dollar signs.

He didn't care what the garden has done for the community

or how long it's been around.

He wouldn't hear it.

He was so stubborn.

Like there was no way around any of it.

No compromise or other solution.

I was just saying how big corporations

were going to end civilization.

What did I tell you?

- Not helping. - Sorry.

I really am, I wish I could do something.

This guy is infuriating.

I haven't seen you this worked up in a while.

Well, Brian's gotten under my skin.

Brian?

What's his last name?

Wolf. Very fitting.

More like a wolf in sheep's clothing.

At least I have Jenny's wedding to escape to.

What are you doing?

A little swifty search.

Brian. Wolf. RHDC.

Oh, he's cute!

Why didn't you tell me he was cute?

This changes everything.

Who cares if he's cute? He's destroying my life!

Not intentionally.

Well I'm sorry, I didn't notice he was cute.

I was too upset.

Oh, come on.

Even if he was cute, what difference would it make?

So you do think he's cute!

Now we just need to find out if he's single and spirited.

What happened to,

"Big corporations are destroying humanity"

and all of that?

That was before I knew the alleged destroyer of humanity

was a cute single guy you could date.

This is all kinds of wrong.

Oh, hush!

Don't disturb me while I do my swifty searches.

She wasn't listening...

I could not get through to her.

I feel if she cares about the community as much as she says,

she'd understand what we're trying to do here.

We are literally bulldozing over her purpose in life.

For the greater good!

You're preaching to the choir, man.

I'm just playing devil's advocate.

She seems pretty down to earth.

Maybe you should just talk to her more.

Why? It's a done deal.

I dunno, you seem very concerned about it.

Well, yeah.

My intention is never to hurt anyone, but she's so stubborn!

Pretty?

There you go!

Come on, we were both thinking it.

I think you should just talk to her more.

Get to know her.

I gotta go, I am meeting Celia at her place for dinner.

She can't cook, but it's really cute when she tries.

- See you later. - Yeah, see you.

♪ She only calls when she's feeling down ♪

♪ She's trying to find her way out ♪

♪ It only hurts when I'm not around ♪

♪ I'm looking for my way out

♪ She said I'm afraid to see your face again ♪

♪ I'm afraid to see you waste away ♪

♪ This time when you're breaking down ♪

♪ Trying to find your way out

♪ I'm waiting for my way out

♪ She said I'm afraid to see your face again ♪

Olivia Owens. What a coincidence.

Do you mind if I sit?

Yes, I do.

Unfortunately it's not up to either of us.

Is this a joke?

It's not.

No, unless it's the universe's idea of humor.

Then yes, a cruel joke.

Guess I can't fight with the universe.

Yeah... I'm just gonna put my bag up.

Sorry...

Bless you.

Thank you.

What is that smell?

What smell exactly?

I think someone is wearing too much perfume.

It smells like, what's that flower?

A lot of old ladies wear it.

Gardenia?

Yes, that's the one.

I'm allergic.

A lot of young women wear Gardenia perfume too,

I'll have you know.

Oh, it's you?

Yes, it is actually.

I made it myself with hand-plucked petals

from my garden.

I sell it as a small side business.

A lot of people love my perfumes.

I'm sure it smells great, just not--

To you?

I'm allergic. Can't argue with science.

I'll just sit as far away from you as possible.

Thanks.

Oh trust me, it's my pleasure.

That is a really big building.

Yep, it'll house a lot of people in unfortunate situations.

And totally change the neighborhood.

For the better.

You know, a lot of people

are going to lose their jobs over this, including me.

I know.

Just...

I'll be fine, I have a plan and I'll get offers.

But I just worry about the other people.

They might not be so lucky.

He doesn't really have much leg room...

Okay, yeah.

Besides, it's kind of like getting a free massage.

See? It's very relaxing.

More like a car accident.

Well, I like my massages with whiplash.

Hey, if it's bothering you, you should say something.

No. Confrontation makes me uncomfortable.

That's not true, you're great at it.

Okay, I think I'll say something.

Yes, please.

Uh, sir...

He's pretty big.

Excuse me, sir?

You're kicking my seat.

Sorry.

Attention to all passengers.

Please remember to take all of your belongings.

And thank you for riding with us.

You need help with your bag?

No thank you, I've got this.

Okay.

You sure you don't need help?

I don't need a big strong man to help me, I put this away.

I'm starting to think maybe you meant to do that!

No, it really wasn't.

I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

- Your book. - Thank you.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

- There you go. - Thank you.

- Hi. - Welcome.

That was long.

I'm Olivia Owens, I'm checking in.

Yes, ma'am.

Is the spa going to be available?

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you so much.

You're most welcome, enjoy your stay.

Reservation for Brian Wolf.

- Yes, room 237. - Great.

J!

Hi! Come in.

The concierge told me you checked in.

I've been waiting all day!

How was the ride?

Terrible! I got stuck next to this really obnoxious guy.

But that doesn't matter now that I'm here!

How are you feeling? You must be so excited!

Yeah... a little nervous.

That's to be expected, right?

Pre-wedding jitters.

Yeah, that's what they tell me.

I brought these for the rehearsal dinner.

By the way, I think I found the perfect guy for you.

What do you mean?

He's Richard's best man.

He's a hottie and he's smart.

A smart hottie?

I thought that species was extinct.

There is a few of them left, I promise.

He and Rich went to college together.

Why is everyone always trying to set me up?

Am I that hopeless?

No, we all just want to see you happy.

And he's one of Rich's best friends

and you're one of my best friends,

and if two happen to hit it off, how fun would that be?

He could be the guy for you.

I have a sixth sense about these things.

That's the one.

All right...

To Rich, who fell in love in three short months.

When you know, you know.

I knew I'd know.

And you! By the way, you're next.

You're going to find that person

who fills that heart full of joy.

Nah, that's crazy talk.

Have I ever been with anyone who fits that description?

Also, since when do you sound like a poet?

Since I met Jenny.

Okay, Shakespeare.

I'm telling you, you're going to find your one.

In fact...

Oh no, what have you been plotting?

I haven't been plotting anything!

I've been plotting a little bit of something,

but hey, hear me out.

Jenny has her maid of honor and she's right up your alley.

I'm telling you, she's really cute and she does all this

do-gooder stuff that you like.

Hey! I'm not that good, okay?

Don't you get it twisted.

But really, don't worry about me.

I'm finally comfortable with the fact

that it's just me and my work.

There they are.

What'd I tell you? Cute, right?

Yeah.

- Hey, babe. - Hi honey.

Liv!

Hey, how was the ride in?

It was awful.

Oh no, really? I'm sorry.

Brian was saying the same thing.

Maybe you guys should talk about it over a cocktail or two.

Sounds good, yeah.

Brian.

I'm Olivia.

Are you here for the wedding, too?

I'm in the wedding. Best man.

Of course.

I forgot something in the room.

I'll be right back.

A little weird.

She's not normally like that.

I can't believe he's here!

Me either!

Why of all the men in the world, is he Richard's best?

And what are the odds that I get seated next to him on the bus,

and now I have to spend the entire weekend with him?

Am I being punished?

No way, you have great karma.

Maybe this is a test.

A test?

I don't know, just a theory.

Why don't you concentrate on yourself this weekend?

Focus on you and Jenny.

Have a good time, enjoy the wedding.

You deserve it.

Good idea.

How are my plants?

Everyone is watered and waiting for your return.

Do they miss me?

Olivia, unless I'm missing something in a very big way,

they do not speak.

Now go and talk to this man.

Whose side are you on?

Yours, obviously!

He's doing something that's not cool.

There's no doubt about that.

But maybe as a person he's not so bad.

Are you kidding me? He is tearing down the garden!

Okay, okay.

Never mind, can you just stay away from him?

Sit at a different table?

We're both in the bridal party.

I don't think I'm going to be able to avoid him.

You have no choice and you need to act cordial

to get in the position of power.

Brian should be the one who is uncomfortable.

You're right.

I always am.

How is she here? I can't even believe it.

Well, that is certainly unexpected.

That's all you have to say?

What's the problem?

Aside from the fact that she basically despises me?

Yeah.

Perry, come on! It's so awkward.

That's where you thrive, man.

Thanks for the support.

Come on, I'm just kidding.

You're both adults.

Put on your big boy pants and just be your charming self.

You can get through this.

Yeah, I hope you're right.

You don't really have a choice, do you?

Thanks for reminding me.

That's what I'm here for.

- Yeah, bye. - Bye.

- Hi. - Hi.

Your seat is right there next to the best man.

Fun!

Hi, hi.

Well, this is certainly a coincidence.

It really is, yeah.

So, you're one of Jenny's childhood friends?

Yeah, I've actually known Jenny longer than you've known Rich.

You know, it's not the length of the friendship that matters.

It's the strength of the bond.

Yeah? Jenny and I were literally joined at the hip.

Rich and I are basically Siamese twins.

That's funny, because I have never heard Jenny

say your name until today.

I haven't seen you in any of their social media posts.

It's kind of hard to take pictures together

when you live in different states.

I'm just happy to be a part of the celebration

and help make this weekend festive.

Jenny doesn't call me her fun friend for nothing.

Well as it happens, I'm Richard's fun friend.

Figured as much.

Baby, we'll figure it out.

It'll be fine.

Jenny?

What happened, are you okay?

Did anyone see me leave?

I don't think so.

I just don't want anyone to know what's going on.

What happened?

This whole wedding is messed up.

Weddings are stressful.

No, this isn't your run of the mill wedding stress.

What do you mean?

This is the last time

I'm going to be around everyone closest to me.

You know how much I love my family.

It's a good one.

Yeah.

Everything is going to change.

I'm not going to be five minutes away

from everyone anymore. That makes me so sad.

Don't be sad.

Yeah things are going to change, but it's going to be great.

You're taking this huge, beautiful step.

And Rich loves you more than anything, and so do I.

I just like things the way they are now.

I'm not sure I want such a big change.

We have this huge move planned after the wedding.

We're gonna be in a city where we don't know anyone.

I won't have my people.

You'll find new people.

I don't want to find new people.

Do you have to move?

Rich got this new job in the city

and his commute would be terrible.

Plus, I can work from anywhere.

And he loves the city, he loves the hustle and bustle of it.

You know me, I've always wanted a quiet life.

Maybe you'll love it.

I don't know, it just seems like

such a big difference between us.

I think maybe I got caught up in the romance of it at all.

I didn't stop to think how this one thing

could affect the rest of our entire lives.

Like where do we want to raise our kids?

I don't want to raise them in the city.

I want them to be close to my family.

You guys are going to work it out.

You're in love.

That is the most important thing.

I'm not sure it is, Liv.

Hey bud, what're you doing here all by yourself?

You should be out there mingling!

Soaking in the ambiance. This is your big weekend.

I'm not really feeling it.

Okay, Groomzilla.

Didn't realize things weren't up to your refined tastes.

Seriously? Dude, what's going on, you okay?

Okay, don't tell anyone,

but Jenny threatened to call off the wedding.

No way!

Dude, I'm sure she didn't mean that.

She's probably just stressed.

Don't brides always do that?

This is different.

Now she's saying she doesn't want to live in the city.

We're moving there right after the wedding.

My new job is there, our whole life is there.

Why is she saying this now?

I don't know.

I think it's just setting in.

I don't know, maybe we moved too fast.

If we're going to lead such different lives...

maybe she's right.

Maybe we should call it off before it's too late.

That's a lot of maybes.

Yeah and maybe is not a word a guy should use

two days before his wedding.

I should be 100% certain.

Dude, are you hearing yourself? You sound crazy.

Look, weddings are stressful. Tensions are high.

This is just a little fight

and I'm sure it'll blow over by morning.

If we're gonna get married, our relationship

should be able to weather the storm no matter how stressful.

Especially on our wedding weekend.

So what're you gonna do?

I don't know.

Hey!

Is everything okay with Jenny?

Not really, no.

How about Rich?

No.

They're obviously in love.

Why can't they work this out?

Love conquers all, or so they say.

They do say that.

I want Rich to be happy.

This is his big weekend.

I feel like as best man I should be doing something.

As maid of honor, I should too.

I know this isn't the most comfortable situation,

for either of us, but maybe we should call a truce.

You know, for Rich and Jenny.

You're right.

We should set our differences aside, for now.

As maid of honor and best man, we need to fix this!

Operation Romance, bring the wedding couple back together,

starts now.

But as soon as the weekend is over...

Oh, we're back to hating each other.

Yeah, got it.

Truce...?

Truce.

Okay.

So, what should we do?

You don't have any ideas?

The truce was my idea.

Okay... let me think.

Pacing helps me brainstorm.

Come on.

Tomorrow is the guests' one day off.

Maybe we can use that free time to set something up

for the both of them?

Yeah, I think you're onto something there.

What can we do to get them to feel those sparks again?

All I keep hearing about is sparks.

I don't get it.

You're kidding, right?

No...

You've never felt sparks?

I don't think so.

I really don't get what people mean by that, to be honest.

Sparks are... kind of this jittery feeling in your stomach.

You feel like you're home,

but you also feel like you're floating on clouds...

if that makes any sense.

Yeah.

Yeah, I guess so.

And hey - you're a poet and you didn't even know it.

Oh, you've got jokes.

That I do.

Dad jokes.

Ouch...

Well, jokes nonetheless.

What can we do to get them to illicit those types of feelings?

Okay, what is the most romantic thing

you've ever done for a girl?

How did you know I could be so romantic?

Figured I'd take a shot in the dark.

Well, it just so happens I can be quite the Casanova.

I once made homemade chicken soup, my grandmother's recipe,

for a girl when she was sick.

That's actually really sweet.

I mean, she did dump me shortly after.

Not because of the soup, I hope?

Yeah, she got food poisoning.

Oh.

Yeah, can you blame her?

No, I'm kidding.

The soup was delicious.

She said she, get this: didn't feel any sparks.

That'll do it, they are hard to find.

So, what is the most romantic thing a guy has done for you?

Well...

The most romantic date I've ever been on was a private dinner.

The view was beautiful

and my date hired a musician to play just for us.

It was all a surprise, I didn't see it coming.

You liked that?

It was beautiful.

The conversation wasn't great, but the ambiance was perfect.

I'd feel so awkward if someone

was playing an instrument just for me.

Like, what do you do? Smile and stare at them?

It's romantic, trust me.

Okay, all right.

So, should we coordinate some kind of a surprise dinner?

Maybe a lunch?

Al fresco? It's so beautiful here.

All right, I'll set it up.

You just make sure Jenny

is at the hotel restaurant at noon tomorrow.

You got it, partner.

Well, I should go get some shut eye.

We have a long day of bridal duties ahead of us tomorrow.

We sure do. Operation Romance has commenced.

I'll see you tomorrow.

See ya.

Hello?

- Liv? - Jenny?

Can I come in?

Rich and I are still fighting.

He's driving me crazy.

Men have a way of doing that to us, don't they?

Can I sleep here tonight?

Of course.

It'll be just like old times.

A bestie slumber party.

Tea?

Yeah, please.

You texting Rich?

No, just looking at photos.

Of?

When we first met.

It was like a fairytale.

I don't know, I guess I was silly

to think that feeling would last forever.

That feeling is gone?

No, it's just been overshadowed by a big dose of reality.

Well, it is beautiful outside.

What do you say we grab brunch?

I bet that'll make you feel better.

I appreciate it Liv, but I'm not hungry.

It's never good to make big life decisions on an empty stomach.

I'm probably just going to rest, but you should go.

Enjoy!

This is your vacation, too.

Come on!

The restaurant is overlooking the water.

I'll be so lonely.

Please don't make me go alone.

I believe in your ability to eat brunch by yourself.

You might even meet a cute guy!

I'm gonna curl up and take a little cat nap.

Good idea.

What's better than having a delicious meal

and then falling asleep on a full stomach?

No, thank you.

I can't fall asleep on a full stomach.

Okay, slightly full.

Just let me sleep!

Are you sure there's nothing I can say

to get you to change your mind?

Have a great brunch.

- Oh, hey. - Hey!

This is what you're wearing

to a fancy brunch on your wedding weekend?

It's an interesting choice, I can't say I'd do the same but,

live your best life.

Actually, slight change of plan.

I'm gonna go for a run, I've gotta...

I dunno, clear my head.

You mean run to the restaurant?

No I don't, but I'll see you later.

I'll pass on brunch, okay?

Dude c'mon, hold up.

You've gotta eat!

I'll grab something after I run.

Oh, come on.

Indulge in a little fine dining provided by your best man.

Another time.

And you don't have to do this, by the way.

You being here, that's enough.

Are you kidding?

Come on, it's the least I can do.

Look, it'll be good for you!

Running will be better!

I'll text you later.

Oh!

I am so sorry, I keep accidentally hurting you!

I must always be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Bad news, Jenny isn't coming. What do we do?

Yeah, Rich cancelled too.

He's taking a run to clear his head.

Shoot.

Ahem!

Right this way...

Oh! No, we're not... this isn't for us.

Mr. Wolf?

Yeah that's me, but it's actually for our friend--

Come.

After you.

Sit.

I did already pay for it.

Yes, it's good.

Sit, sit.

I guess I could eat.

Thank you.

Well, it is very beautiful here.

It's kind of hard to enjoy the scenery

while our friends are fighting though.

We will have to come up with a new plan.

Hopefully Rich will feel better after his run.

And Jenny after her nap.

Here's hoping.

She was looking at photos of them.

That's a good sign, right?

Yeah, as long as she wasn't pressing delete.

Right.

Well...

Cheers to you for putting this together.

It is actually pretty romantic.

Thanks.

And I just did what you said, so...

We make a good team.

There you go. Enjoy!

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Should we eat?

Yeah, let's dig in before it gets cold.

The chef designed a special menu just for this.

It looks amazing.

Yeah.

All right...

Wow, this is so good.

Yeah, it's too bad the real guests

couldn't be here to enjoy this.

I feel this would rekindle their love.

We'll get 'em next time.

For now, let's just enjoy the food.

- Thank you. - Thanks.

How have you never done this for a girl before?

I don't know, never had the right girl I guess.

You never had a girlfriend?

Well yeah, just nothing too serious.

How about you?

Boyfriends?

Not in a very long time.

You don't date much, or...

Not really.

Why not?

Wow sorry, am I prying?

No, it's fine.

It's really hard to meet people in the city, you know?

I feel like people either meet on a dating app,

or they get set up by their friends,

and that's just not really my thing.

Too much pressure, too much room for disappointment.

So I just go about my life and hope for the best.

How about you?

I agree.

When things are forced, there's no magic to it.

You know?

There should be something special about it.

Including how you meet, how it all happens.

It should be...

It should be natural.

Yeah well, sometimes it happens naturally,

but there's no chemistry, or the date is awful.

Ooh. Any good bad date stories?

The question is do I have any good date stories?

Same, yes.

How about any funny ones?

Umm...

This one time, I went on a date with a guy

and we got dinner from a food truck.

He put hot sauce all over his food.

So he started eating it, he started tearing up

and I told him he didn't have to continue eating it,

but he insisted he didn't want to waste the food.

And so I spent the entire rest of the night

just watching my date cry over his tacos.

- Poor guy! - Yeah.

Wow.

Did he get a second date?

No.

Not because of the crying taco situation, just...

We didn't really have anything to talk about.

How about you? Funny bad date stories?

Uhh... yeah.

One sticks out.

This girl, she was on her phone the entire time.

And then she accidentally texted me, "what are you up to?"

Which she obviously meant to text to somebody else.

When I confronted her about it she said,

"Your shift is over, goodnight."

No, she didn't!

Yeah, she absolutely did.

It was so outrageous, I wasn't even mad about it.

I was actually kind of impressed with her lack of tact.

I am so sorry you had to go through that.

Nah, don't be.

It wasn't too bad.

I didn't go on a date for a while after that, though.

Yeah, I can understand why.

Anyways, work is kind of my life.

It keeps me busy.

I don't really take much time off.

You should.

It's really important to take a step back and relax.

Smell the roses.

I know I do.

- Metaphorically. - And literally.

Lots of beautiful roses in the garden...

I hope that everything was exceptional for you.

It's been great, yeah.

Delicious.

Wonderful.

This is our chef's specialty dessert.

Enjoy.

- After you. - Okay.

Ah! Don't be shy.

Feed him. It's very romantic.

Uh...

It's the way the chef intended.

It's the only way to eat a chocolate strawberry.

- Go ahead! - Okay...

All right...

Wow, this is pretty good.

You have some chocolate.

- Do you mind if I? - No, go for it.

Ah, young love.

So beautiful!

I guess I'm up.

And now, for the grand finale!

Oh, right.

I love my job.

This is awkward.

We will get through this together.

Thankfully I have you by my side through this difficult time.

Sometimes awkwardness can be kind of romantic.

You know, that nervous feeling?

Are these sparks?

I thought I was, I don't know, feeling anxious or something.

Sometimes it can be hard to tell the difference.

Oh hey, you're back.

The music is very romantic.

You have a beautiful girl with you.

You make a lovely couple.

You must dance!

I...

I guess he's right.

Okay.

Here we go.

That waiter was real pushy.

He's just doing his job,

making sure we get the romantic treatment.

That is true.

This is something.

The music, the food.

The view.

Of the lake, I meant.

Are you sure that's what you meant?

I...

I should go check on Jenny.

Yeah, yeah.

Sorry, of course.

I'll check on Rich.

See if he's back from his run.

Unless you know, he's practicing for a marathon or something.

Well...

Thanks for lunch.

Yeah.

Bye.

Bye...

It's like he thinks that it'll just somehow work itself out.

Or that I'll just get used to living in a city.

It's like he's listening to me, but he's not hearing me.

You know?

He doesn't understand how serious all this is.

I don't know, it must be like a guy thing or something.

It's like they mean well,

but they don't understand the weight of certain things.

Like, where are you guys gonna live?

Or where are you gonna work?

You can't just tear down everything

you've worked so hard to build and expect it all to be okay.

Exactly! Thank you.

See? You get it.

Yeah...

But maybe it isn't such a bad idea?

Maybe you guys can work it out.

You do have a very solid foundation.

I thought we did.

I am so confused!

I'm not sure of anything anymore.

Well, why don't you just try to relax now?

I can't...

Not even a spa session with my bestie

can unwind me at this point.

What about doing something cleansing for your body?

You know, like a massage?

I guess that could be nice.

I'll set it up. How does that sound?

Sounds good.

- Thank you. - Of course.

What are you doing?

I didn't eat lunch, remember?

How you feeling?

You're quiet.

You're never quiet, it's kind of scaring me.

I don't know what to do, man.

I really don't.

I'm scaring myself.

The run didn't help?

No, it just...

It confused me more.

Is there more you're not telling me?

None of this seems like a huge deal.

I know!

That's what I said!

I tried to tell Jenny that, but she won't listen!

She wants to have some sort of

big conversation the day before the wedding.

What did you say exactly?

I said it would be fine, you know?

Enjoy the weekend, we'll enjoy our lives.

Everything will work out.

How'd she take that?

She said something about...

Active listening, or whatever.

So you weren't listening?

I was!

Maybe I didn't hear all the words.

Whatever.

Maybe I wasn't listening.

Oh boy...

You think I should apologize?

I don't think I did anything wrong.

You know, persay...

But it might help smooth things over.

Was I being insensitive?

I think apologizing is probably a very good idea.

How about I talk to Olivia, we'll figure out where she is,

and we'll get this thing sorted?

Okay.

Olivia, huh?

Oh, don't give me that look!

This is maid of honor, best man stuff.

That's it!

Okay man, do whatever you gotta do.

Stop.

- You're welcome. - Bye.

Thanks.

What're you doing?

There was a fly...

Got it!

- Hello. - Hi!

We are are here for our massages.

Fantastic, the name?

Those are some fun candles!

Why don't you go smell them and pick one out for me?

You are acting so weird right now.

I just love spas. They get me really excited.

Can you blame me?

I guess not!

Hi, we have two separate reservations

under the name Owens.

One is for a couple's massage.

That's for my friend over there and her hubby to be.

He'll be here soon, but this is a surprise,

so neither of them can know.

They both have to think that it's just a solo massage.

And then the other massage is for me.

Where is her husband?

He's coming with the best man.

He also has a single reservation under the name Wolf.

Does that make sense?

Uh...

It makes sense, yeah.

Sure.

Okay.

Just don't say anything, Jenny's coming back.

Can you do that?

It'll be okay.

Gardenia's your favorite, right?

I just found it.

It smells exactly like your homemade perfume.

Smells like home.

Just don't give it to Brian...

What?

Nothing.

Are we ready?

Mmm-hmm.

Just this way.

Is your old co-worker gone?

Yeah, I think so.

It's a weird coincidence he'd be here of all places.

I know, yeah.

Thanks again for waiting for him to leave.

I just didn't feel like making any forced small talk.

I get it, man.

You know what? There's some really cute gifts here.

Maybe you should pick something up

for Jenny as an olive branch?

My man!

Look at you. Always thinking, huh?

Hello, sir. How can I help you today?

Yeah, I have one reservation under Owens.

It's a couple's massage.

I believe I just saw the bride-to-be walk down the hall.

And the other is under Wolf.

It's a single's massage, that's for me.

Oh!

You got it, sir.

Right this way, follow me.

Hey Rich, come on!

But--

You'll get her something later, okay?

Man, I'm feeling some weird energy in these crystals.

Okay, let's just close your chakras and go enjoy a massage.

Chakras, yeah...

All right and your room is on the left, sir.

Okay, thank you.

And hey, see you after.

Yeah, sure.

So I guess this is my room?

Oh no, Mr. Wolf.

Follow me.

Uh...

Oh no, wait umm...

This is supposed to be for our friends.

Oh yes, your friends.

They planned this for the two of you.

To celebrate your love.

So just relax, enjoy, close your eyes.

Oh, that feels so good - no, wait.

We're supposed to be getting singles massages.

Brian, explain.

My brain has turned to mush.

Can't talk either.

Too happy.

But--

Just let it happen, Olivia.

Let it happen.

Fine.

Now, I'd like the two of you

to take a nice, deep cleansing breath.

Let's just loosen up a little.

Okay.

Not sure it bends that way, actually.

Whoa, ow...

Good ow?

Look at you.

You were born to spa.

Yeah, I'm pretty impressive.

This is great, but...

We gotta get a new game plan.

You're right.

We need to focus on getting Jenny and Rich to the altar.

I can't believe they haven't made up yet.

The wedding is tomorrow.

Let's enjoy the rest of these massages,

then we can reconvene and we'll figure it out, okay?

What's wrong with these knuckleheads?

Something so small shouldn't ruin something so beautiful.

I know.

We gotta make this right.

In about 45 minutes.

I like the sound of that.

During this portion of the massage,

couples usually hold hands.

No, we're not--

I love this song.

Me too.

Really?

Yeah.

You big softie.

This is my favorite part.

♪ All you are

♪ Beautiful shining from afar

How was your massage?

It was good.

I could have sworn I heard Rich snoring in the room next to me,

but it's obviously in my head.

You are absolutely glowing.

Your masseuse must have magic hands or something.

Still scrolling down memory lane?

Yeah.

There's so many great pictures of Rich and I.

We had so much fun.

Change your mind yet?

No.

As of now, the wedding is still off.

We just have to break it to our guests.

It's a good thing we wanted to have a small wedding

with just our closest friends and family,

or else it would be even more awkward.

Shall we head out of here?

Yeah.

I think I fell asleep.

Now that's the sign of a good massage!

Glad you enjoyed it.

How was yours?

Really nice, actually.

Hey, any texts from Jenny?

No.

Look at this photo.

This is the day I proposed to her.

Look at how happy we are.

Never would have thought we'd end up here.

Hey!

Come on, let's go.

- Gotta cheer up. - All right.

Hey.

- I ordered us some snacks. - Good thinking.

We need all the brain food we can get.

I brought my laptop.

Why?

Well, we need to get organized.

You're on it.

We have to be.

I've never seen Rich so happy,

I mean until this weekend, obviously.

I don't want to let him down.

I know what you mean. How is Rich?

He's been looking through photos on his phone like a sad sack!

Jenny, too!

Okay, what should we do?

We need to get them to fall back in love.

Make them realize why they decided

to get married in the first place.

We only have a couple of hours.

The question is,

what makes someone fall in love to begin with?

Well, I think it's simple.

The love of your life is the person

you like spending the most time with.

People fall in love because they enjoy each other's company.

Also having similar interests or things in common.

Normally I would agree with you,

but my friends Ross and Frankie

have nothing in common - opposites attract and all that -

and they are totally in love.

Well I'm stumped.

What're you doing?

Searching how to get your friends to fall back in love.

What?

Sometimes it works, okay?

No, come on! We can do this.

We are two smart individuals, we can figure this out, okay?

Okay.

When two people are in love,

they are making memories.

That is something that Jen and Rich definitely have.

They certainly have lots of photos.

Exactly!

That they both were looking through!

Yes, Rich was looking through photos from their engagement,

reminiscing about the good times.

Sometimes you have to think about the good stuff

to realize that outweighs the obstacles.

Real love can overcome conflict and differences.

Yes, that's it!

We just have to remind them that love conquers all.

I have an idea. We have work to do.

All right, let's do this!

Yep, all right. Here we go!

Okay...

Hey.

Did you...

Did you do all this?

No, you didn't?

I knew they were up to something.

Sorry to interrupt,

but you've both been requested in the lounge.

Oh, okay.

Right this way.

Thanks.

Oh, here they are! Right on time.

Please take a seat with your respective families,

if you'd like.

For those of you who don't know me, I am Olivia Owens.

I am Jenny's maid of honor.

And I'm Brian Wolf, Rich's best man.

Thank you, thank you.

Hold the applause, please.

We wanted to invite you here tonight

and thank you so much for joining us by the way,

because we know that today

is technically your one day off from wedding festivities.

But we didn't have a chance to give our toasts

at the rehearsal dinner so we wanted to do something special.

To our friends and their love.

Now, umm...

Normally it would be totally rude for me

to be on my phone right now, but there is a reason.

Brian! Hey.

I'm just calling because...

well, I've got to tell you this.

I just had the best date of my life

and mark my words, I am going to marry this woman.

Her name is Jenny, and she's gorgeous

and smart and fun and so easy to talk to.

We hit it off right away.

You're gonna meet her and you'll see.

Anyways, I'll tell you more about it later.

Call me back.

I think that voicemail speaks for itself.

But I kept it, because I had a feeling I would need it.

I've known Rich since college,

and I have never heard him so certain

or excited about anything before in his life.

I also got a similar call, except I picked up the phone.

I didn't pickup, I was busy!

It was Jen and she was raving about this guy, Rich.

You can't deny chemistry.

When it hits, it hits hard and everyone can see it.

It's undeniable and it doesn't go away.

Rich and Jen had sparks from the moment they met.

Now, some people don't believe in love at first sight,

but that is definitely what these two had.

The kind of love they felt was the kind that doesn't go away.

It's the everlasting kind.

The kind of love that most people can only dream of.

It can be really difficult to forge meaningful connections.

But Rich and Jenny found that right off the bat

and didn't waste any time.

They both knew what they wanted - each other -

and they decided to take a big step, a leap of faith.

To be together, for better or for worse.

Anyone can fall in love,

but you also have to choose love and show up for it.

My parents have been married for 35 years,

when I asked them what makes a marriage successful,

they said that they choose to be together every day.

And like the wedding vows they will recite tomorrow,

Rich and Jenny will be together through thick and thin.

Because their connection is not something to give up on.

It's something to cherish and to work on every day.

My parents also have a successful marriage.

And they would always tell me this one thing.

Life is complicated. It can get messy.

People fight.

But you don't throw in the towel over one disagreement.

You work together, you strategize.

You face the problems head on and you move forward together.

And sure, there will be bumps along the way,

but Jen and Rich have what it takes to get over those hurdles,

so long as they move together.

One more thing.

Rich here has been trying to set me up for...

quite a long time.

Long time!

I'm a bit of a lost cause.

But he keeps harping on finding sparks.

Someone smart once told me,

that sparks are when you feel like home.

You feel safe, but you're also excited

about what the future holds.

Home is where the heart is.

Which means that no matter where Rich and Jenny are,

so long as they are together, they are home.

To Jenny and Rich.

Jenny and Rich.

Cheers!

I'm so sorry.

No, I'm sorry.

I love you.

I love you, too.

What was I thinking letting all the small stuff get in my head?

Don't let me do that again!

I tried!

Listen, we just have to find a compromise,

something that works for us both.

We'll figure it out.

One hundred percent.

Congratulations.

You did it!

We did it.

I couldn't have done this without you.

It was a good idea.

Well, I guess we can go back to being their fun friends.

Yes, and just in time for the party.

It's going to be fun.

Yeah.

Well, I'm gonna go hug Jen.

Sounds good.

Thank you, Liv.

Love you.

I am just happy to help.

Brian did a lot, too.

Yeah, it seems you two really hit it off, huh?

Don't get carried away.

We were just performing our bridal party duties.

You know how seriously I take those.

Thankfully!

- Shall we? - Yeah.

It went off without a hitch.

And now Rich and Jen will get hitched!

Exactly!

I'm so glad it worked out.

Me too.

Now I can relax.

That is until I have to go home and face the music

that I will be without a job and everything I've ever known.

Is Brian on your good side yet?

I hate to admit it, but he's pretty great.

We've been having a really good time.

But this development deal is

like a dark cloud hanging over us.

OMG.

What?

You've caught feelings for Brian.

Yeah, maybe, I don't know.

It's complicated, I mean I shouldn't like him.

Why not?

Frankie...

His company is tearing down my garden.

Something my mom and I worked so hard to build

is going to be destroyed.

I can't be with someone who did that to me.

I wish there was some way you could get past all that.

I don't think there is.

You look so beautiful.

- Really? - Yeah.

Do you think Richard is going to like it?

He's going to love it.

He loves you.

Here you go.

Cheers!

Hey, there you are.

I need help.

Yes you do.

So, you ready to tie the knot?

Isn't that what you're doing?

Good one, yeah nice.

Coming in hot with the dad jokes.

Look at you, you're already prepped for fatherhood

and you're not even a husband yet.

Yeah, nice.

Listen, I know I've only known her a short time

but I feel like I've known her my whole life.

I can tell.

Let's go get you married, all right?

Yeah.

Well, we did it.

We certainly did.

Operation Romance was a success.

Ready to walk me down the aisle?

Born ready.

Now everyone, please take your seats.

We are gathered here today

to celebrate the love of Jenny and Rich.

Do you, Jenny, take Rich to be your husband?

Yes.

And do you, Rich, take Jenny to be your wife?

I do.

I now pronounce you man and wife.

This is the most slow dancing I've done since middle school.

Middle school dances were the best.

How does this compare?

They were not the best!

No, it was terrifying.

The guys always stood on the edge,

too chicken to ask the girls to dance.

Well you weren't too chicken this time.

That's true.

So what were you like when you were a kid?

I think my passions are the same.

I started helping my mom garden when I was about six years old.

I used to watch her

and it wasn't just that she was watering the garden,

but she used to make people smile.

Make people happy.

We had these beautiful bushes on our front lawn

and we used to sit by the window

and just watch as people stopped and admired them,

took photos with them.

I think helping people see the beauty in nature

has become part of my identity.

I am rambling, wow.

Not at all.

Hello?

Hey everyone, groom here.

Sorry to interrupt everyone dancing,

but my best man, Mr. Brian Wolf and I

have a special presentation for my beautiful new bride.

You do?

We do, yes, now if you will excuse me.

Of course.

Now at this time, if I could get everybody

to vacate the dancefloor.

And Jenny, would you please take a seat right there.

DJ?

Hey.

Look who it is! The man of the hour.

You are full of surprises.

I told you I was the fun friend.

You took fun to a whole new level.

- You liked it? - How could I not?

I didn't know the funky chicken was still a thing,

but you made it work.

Why thank you.

So, you having a good time?

Oh yeah, I just wanted to get a little air.

Smell your roses?

Yeah exactly.

I was thinking about what you said earlier

and I wanted to share something with you.

Okay.

When I was ten,

my best friend came to live with me and my family.

His mother had passed away and his father was out of work

and they had nowhere to live.

I thought it was awesome.

An extended sleep over.

But obviously my friend didn't think it was so great.

He didn't want to live in a sleeping bag in my bedroom.

He wanted his own space, his own things.

I tried to make him laugh, tried to cheer him up,

but it didn't make him feel any better.

It was hard seeing him like that.

That really made me want to help people in similar situations.

That must have been really hard.

I'm not the bad guy.

I know that, I do.

But...

You can't forget the facts.

I respect why you're passionate about what you do,

but you have to consider that are going to tear down

the one thing that I am most passionate about.

I understand.

Do you?

Regardless, it has been really nice spending time with you.

It has been really nice.

I wonder...

What?

If I hadn't been working on that specific building

and you hadn't been in that specific garden

and we just met on the bus, or at this wedding.

I would have called you that same day to ask you on a date.

Brian--

And we wouldn't be arch enemies.

If only...

I should go.

Rich and Jenny made it work.

Why can't we?

I really wish we could.

It's been really nice spending time with you, it really has,

but I just don't think I could get past this.

You have a good night.

Okay, so if we move the AC units,

we can bring the water here.

Also, on this side I was thinking of having a compost...

Hi! Reporting live from our honeymoon!

- Are you having fun? - Oh, so much fun.

We're really happy.

I just wanted to call and say thank you again for everything.

Ah, don't mention it.

No, I mean it.

I almost missed out on marrying the love of my life.

That's me!

Time for you to go and find yours.

What?

You and Brian!

What about me and Brian?

It was so obvious to everyone.

- Oh yeah. - It was?

Yeah, just like it's obvious with Rich and I.

Just go on one date with him.

Couldn't hurt, right?

One date is all my man needs to sweep you off your feet.

Trust me.

It's complicated.

You and Brian helped us realize our one small disagreement

or difference shouldn't get in the way of something real.

Grown up relationships aren't always perfect,

things don't work or fit,

but some people are worth fighting for.

Just go out with him.

What do you have to lose?

If he'll even still go out with me.

I shut him down.

He will, trust me.

But we gotta go, Liv!

We gotta go. Just think about it, okay?

I will.

Love you!

I love you more.

I love you more!

- Bye. - Buh-bye.

Bye!

Hi.

Hey.

Came here to gloat?

No, of course not.

Sorry, I know you didn't.

I...

I wanted to bring you something.

What is it?

Just open it.

Seeds?

For the new garden.

I put some gardenia in there too,

even though it makes me sneeze.

I don't understand.

You made me realize the importance

of a place to grow food and to enjoy nature,

but there wasn't any room in the plans.

I kept trying to squeeze a garden in here or there,

but it just wasn't working.

Then, I realized the one space that was being underutilized.

Here.

I added an addendum to the blueprint.

I was able to make space for an organic community garden

on the entire roof of the building.

We were also able to save the old growth trees

along the perimeter.

The city was happy to agree to the changes.

I'd love for you to spearhead it, if you're interested.

Everyone here could keep their jobs.

Really?

Yeah.

This is preliminary,

and I would love to discuss any ideas you might have.

But I'll give you some time to think about it.

I'm sure you have a lot to do in the next month.

It was really great seeing you.

It's incredible.

Thank you.

I didn't realize the importance of a community garden.

Once you pointed that out to me,

everything just sort of opened up.

I've been thinking about you.

About me?

There's something about you that sticks.

Cool.

Well I guess we'll be working together again.

Not to rekindle romance this time,

but to create a beautiful space.

Which is sort of the same thing.

Yeah.

So should we get dinner tonight

and go over the plans?

No.

Okay--

I will go to dinner with you tonight under one condition.

What's that?

No work talk.

It's a date.

And it's going to be a good one.

I thought you didn't want...

Yeah, I finally came to my senses.

So... a date tonight?

Yeah, if it sounds good to you.

It sounds better than good.

I can't believe this is happening.

You know we may not agree on everything in the future...

Oh, I know!
