- Thanks.

- This is going to look
wonderful.

- I know.
- We have two more meetings

about other installations
this week.

- I know.

- I think your cousin
has everything set here, right?

- Right.
- And you have everything set.

Everything except a date
for the weekend.

- Do you have someone in mind?
- An up-and-coming artist.

- A total romantic?
- With beautiful eyes.

- He'll look right into
your soul, Ellen.

- Get yourself another agent.
A dating one.

- I have.

I got the invite.

That invite, the one in
the black envelope

that nobody's talking about
but everybody is talking about.

Eternity.

- How did you--
- Somebody nominated me.

- What do you mean?

- Once you get your match with
Eternity, which you will,

because they have a 100 %
match rate,

you get to nominate one single
person onto their roster.

- Did one of your clients
nominate you?

- I'm not allowed to ask and
they are not going to tell me

but I am happy to follow all
of their rules now that I am in.

- All what rules?

- You only get asked once
to join.

If you say you need
to think about it
or you'll call them back,

you're out. Forever.

If you ask to join them,
you're out.

- Forever?

- Your date with Eternity
is a blind date

because eternity knows
what you want

and what you don't, so you have
to stay at least 30 minutes.

Leave early and--
- You're out!

Forever.

- Once you do get a match
and you nominate somebody

onto their roster, you have
to keep it a secret forever.

- That's a lot of forevers.
- I am really hoping so.

- Speaking of, where's Johnny
taking you this weekend?

San Fran?

Honolulu? Paris?

- Nowhere.

His parents are coming to town.

Plus, I'm busy with work, which
I have you to thank for, Ellen.

You're in high demand. In fact,
I have another meeting right now

at the hotel across the road.

But I want an update
the minute "they" call.

Ooh, you did tell Eternity

you want a handsome
laid back artist, right?

And that you're a hopeless
romantic?

- Of course.

- Atta girl.

- You're avoiding the topic,

so either you've done nothing,
likely,

or you're gonna surprise me.
Unlikely.

- Come on, Diane,
you don't do guessing and
I don't do surprises.

- Have you got a date to bring
to my party?

- Actually, yes.
I have someone in mind.

She's average height, blonde,
wears plastic gloves

and drives a yellow cart.

- Cindy would not be interested
in someone

who makes so little effort.
- All my effort goes

into running dad's firm,
not my dating life.

- That's exactly
where you're going wrong.

You won't find someone
who's right for you

with that attitude.

- I really don't think
my attitude is the problem.

I could find someone if I wanted
to. There's just no point.

What's this?

Excuse me.

- Okay, so I'm thinking maybe
this smaller piece

kind of up in that corner
over here.

- Ah! It's here! We were
wondering when it would go up

and what it would be.

- We are just finalizing
the layout.

- You're thinking the centre
wall?

- For the big piece, yeah.
- Nice.

- What is that?

- Go easy on her.

- Do you want the micro or macro
explanation?

You know what?
I'll start with the basics.

It's art.

- Maybe this art belongs
in a gallery.

- I thought you were gonna be
one of those classic art snobs.

Thank you.
- I am. That wasn't
a compliment.

- Why don't you just ask me
if it's upside down

and be on your way.

- Our family's been coming here
for decades.

We own the building.

I'm CEO of my family's corporate
law firm on the top two floors.

Surely I'm entitled
to an opinion.

- Only if it's valid.

- Rude.

- Okay, so if that...

- Tacos or burritos,
your choice.

- I will choose the dessert
and the movie.

You should cook whatever
you like.

I should be the one cooking,
I mean,

you're already doing
so much for me.

- Oh no, you saved me
from my spreadsheets and
maxi-calculator.

And I love seeing your work
on display.

I'm so proud of you.

- I'm proud of you.
You said no dating

and you're sticking to it.

- You were right.
I needed a little self-focus.

- Hello.

It's Eternity.

Um...

Tonight?

- You only get one chance.
Go!

- Yes, I can be there.
Yeah, that's perfect.

- I'm so jealous.

When my dating ban's over,
I won't have anyone

like Eternity to help me
find the one.

- I will help you.

- Thanks, but no thanks.

You won't think
anyone's good enough.

- Listen, if anyone wants
to take out my little cousin

they are going to have to be
more than perfect.

- You sound like my dad.

- I wish my dad was here.

- He'd want to drive you
to your date

to get a quick look at the guy
and then insist

on picking you up to ask
a million questions.

- And my mom would be like,
"Honey, it's no big deal,

just follow your heart."

- Didn't they meet
on a blind date too?

- Yes. But my dad said they
would have met no matter what,

no matter when.
They were meant to be.

- Such an awesome couple.

- They were partners in crime.

I just want exactly
what they had.

And surely that's not too much
to ask for.

- You will have that.

This is going to be
your "meant to be".

- I have trusted Eternity
to find someone I can trust

with my heart but,
really, what are the odds?

I mean, maybe I'm just not meant
to find a love like that.

- Just because bad luck's
hit hard before

doesn't mean it's going
to keep happening.

You are not going
to be Eternity's first fail.

- Good evening.

What's your name?

- Um, I'm actually here
with Eternity.

- Eternity. Oh.
Well, follow me. This way.

- Hi.

Oh... Please.

Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- Sorry, wrong table.

- Uh, I... well, I...

- Compliments of Eternity.
Enjoy.

- Okay, so, maybe this isn't...

what either of us expected
but let's just start over

from the beginning,
before this morning.

- Yeah, this?

Not a good fit.

- Wait, wait. You have to stay
at least thirty minutes.

It's the rules, or
don't you play by the rules?

Nice.

- Excuse me.
- Yes, sir.

- Can I just get one of these,
please?

It's been a long day.
No lunch.

- Um, usually
the lady orders first.

- I don't think this gentleman
is much of a gentleman.

And to be honest, I don't really
have the appetite for anything.

Thank you, though.

- Very well.

- Well I've had better
half hours in court.

I'm a lawyer. Corporate. Joint
CEO of Williams and Williams.

- Yes. You said that. Earlier.
At the Birchwood.

I paid attention.

Noticed the suit
you were wearing too.

Didn't think to change
for our date?

- Well, I've had no complaints
about my wardrobe

on previous dates.

- And what were the complaints?

- And actually, I'm not
surprised that you noticed
the tailoring,

I like to make a good impression
on my clients.

- And no one else, apparently.

- I'm focused on my work.
Are you?

Or is your job just--
- Do not say hobby.

That is a cliche
that is beneath even you.

My work takes plenty of focus,
it's just not focused

on outdated practises and
senseless arguing.

My work makes people
feel something.

Most people.

- Oh, I felt something
at Birchwood.

- Claustrophobic? Going
to the same place for decades?

That must be stifling.

May I recommend broadening
your horizons

trying something new like
the Innisbrooke Resort.

- I love the Innisbrooke Resort.
My parents got married there.

So did my sister.

- I just don't understand how
I ended up with someone so...

Routine.

It's just not at all
what I asked for.

- What did you ask for?

- Are you romantic?

- Isn't everyone?
Are you straightforward?

- What do you mean by that?
- Let's just say no.

Your turn.
- Are you laid back?

- You mean lazy.
French or Italian?

- Food, city, people? Art?

Who's your favourite artist?

- Springsteen.

- Did you give any consideration
to your Eternity interviews at
all?

Did you understand what getting
this invitation means?

What they're promising?
- They're promising true love,

which I can confirm,
still doesn't exist.

And I'll be reaching out to them
about wasting my time.

Cancel that order!

- About wasting our time!

- Hello!

We're here!

Tell us everything.
Who is Mr. Right?

Is he a famous artist?

Do we know him?

- I am Eternity's first fail.

The lawyer from the Birchwood
was my date.

- The "What is that" guy?

- I am off to tell Eternity

that their 100 % match rate
is a lie.

- Good morning.

- Hi.

This looks very different
than it did when I came in
for interviews.

- I wouldn't know, I did
everything from my office.

Paid for the membership
in full, really overpriced,
if you ask me.

Got verified the same day, I
guess my reputation precedes me.

- Well their 24-hour concierge
service

just goes straight
to voicemail, so.

- That's why I'm here too.

Hello?!

- Can I help?

- Hi, I'm Will Williams
of Williams and Williams.

- I'd like to speak to
a manager.

- I'm sorry, we'd like to speak
to a manager.

But separately, please.

- There is no manager.
There's nobody here.

- So who are you--
- Isn't this an office?

- I hire staging furniture
to help lease this place.

Someone just signed
a new contract

but it's been without
a tenant for months.

There's no business here.

We've been conned.

- Johnny's planning a special
dinner

for our one-month anniversary

and he told me to take a look
at this.

But I don't know,
it's not really me.

- Hi.

I'm Diane Williams, from
Williams and Williams upstairs.

This is my mother, Barb,
and this is Dash.

I just want to apologize for
my brother yesterday.

Will is overly attached
to this place.

- Nice to meet you.

And don't worry,
it's a reactionary piece,

so we're off to a good start.

- Oh...
- Oh, I like that picture.

- Oh.

Ellen will be pleased
she has one fan.

- Two.

- Would you like me to show you?
Let's go.

- It was nice meeting you.
- Nice to meet you.

- Are you going
on this dinner cruise?

- Well, uh--
- It's so romantic.

My husband and I got engaged
on this boat.

You'll love the cruise.

Mom, I'm taking a seat.

- I mean, how can Eternity
not be real?

Everyone is talking about them.

- They are elusive and
exclusive.

That's the whole marketing
and the appeal.

I bet you it's all PR because
I don't know a single person

who's with them.

- But who would get
fake Eternity to trick me?

- Take a wild guess.

Who knows that you're looking
for a date?

- Love!

I am looking for love!

- Right.
- And literally everyone knows.

- Maybe someone with a grudge.

Maybe someone
you've antagonized recently.

- I can't think of anyone.

You?
- Possibly maybe somebody

that we won big against.
Plenty of those.

You know, a receptionist
handed me the envelope.

- A courier came to my studio.

But my address
isn't even listed.

- Are you sure it
wasn't somebody who just

doesn't like abstract
art or maybe a disgruntled

ex-boyfriend.
- Disgruntled?

Why are you following me?

- I'm not following you.

I'm heading to Birchwood to help
make arrangements

for my sister's wedding
anniversary party.

Why are you following me?

- We don't have to speak again,
but I will be pursuing this

and taking action against
whoever is behind Eternity.

- Why?
- Because it's unfair.

They're pretending to
match people,

and it's nothing but
a cruel con.

- No. I mean, why are you trying
to pursue this?

You're an abstract artist.

I doubt you even read
the T's and C's.

- I will do whatever I can
for people like me

who are lost trying to find
true love.

- You're trying to find true
love?

Look at the end of a rainbow.

Ellen. Ellen, wait. Hold on.

I didn't mean you specifically,

it's this whole "true love"
thing, okay?

And for me, you know, the dating
part, that's not important,

but the con is. They've broken
a long list of laws.

So just let me handle this.
- Is there a problem still?

Is the art just not your thing?

- Eternity is a con!

We've been conned! Both of us!
- What?

How?
- I don't know.

I'm going home to look into it.

- Well he's a lawyer, right?
- It's Will. My name is Will.

- Right. So, you and...
Will can work together

to resolve whatever it is?

- No. No thank you.
I don't need a sidekick.

- Oh, can't work with
a creative? Couldn't keep up?

- I've worked with some
of the most difficult CEOs

from all over the world.

- I would not be the sidekick!

- Okay...

- I'll keep you informed,
Ellen.

- What exactly is going on
with Eternity?

- It's fake.

Whoever nominated me is
either in on it

or they've been conned too.
- What's going on?

- Who's the boy?
- He's with Diane.

Her son, I guess.

She's the sister of
you know who.

- Huh...

Are you an art fan?

- It's my favourite subject
at school. And math.

- That's a really good mix
of the smart and creative stuff.

- Did you make this?

- I did.

I'm Ellen.

- This is Dash, my grandson.

- Pleased to meet you, Dash.
- Pleased to meet you, Ellen.

- Again, straight to voicemail.

I'm sorry, I have to go.
I have to check on something.

- I need your help persuading
Mom we don't need to sit

boy-girl-boy and
give everybody dance cards.

- Diane, it's important.
I promise.

I'm sorry, buddy,
I gotta take off, alright?

Something's come up.
- Okay.

Soccer later?
- Absolutely.

- Alright.
- Yeah?

- You sound just like your
father, always something to do.

- Mom...
- Dash thinks you're up
to something sneaky.

Would it be a plus-one plan?
- What's a plus-one?

- I'm gonna let you handle
that one, Mom.

- Oh...

- Now that Ellen's gone--
- What happened?

- Eternity is a scam.
- What?

- It's a catfish agency.
Ellen's been conned.

- We have to go get her--
- No!

I'm the one that told Eternity
to invite Ellen.

- You and Johnny were matched
by them?

- Yes. And then I passed
the mantle on to Ellen.

But I didn't tell her.
I couldn't.

It's one of their rules.

- But if you and Johnny
were matched by Eternity

then Ellen must have made
a mistake.

Your relationship is real.

- Can I help you?

- Angela, your agent, she gave
me your contact information.

I just wanted to keep you
updated about the progress
I'm making

regarding our legal matter.

- I mean, couldn't this have
just been a phone call?

There's really no need
to make the effort to come
all of this way.

You made it pretty clear
you did not want my help.

- I wanted to show you this.

She once introduced herself
to me as Kat.

She doesn't work
in my building anymore.

Nobody seems to know who she is.
Do you?

- She gave me my envelope.
- Interesting.

I also reached out
to the staging company.

That guy that we met outside
the empty office?

They gave me a very promising
address to follow up on.

- Isn't this a bit beneath you?

You have nothing better to do
with your Saturday?

- I have plenty to do,
thank you very much.

But I don't stop seeking justice
because I changed out of a suit.

I never give up.

- Well I found out some
stuff too.

- I guess I'll let myself in.

- Well, it's a bit more creative
than your stack of papers.

There's a lot of guesswork
involved but there is nothing

factual on Eternity anywhere.

- Right.

Well, I had two assistants
helping me,

we only found one address.

Looks like you really didn't
have much going on today either.

- I trusted them.

It's important to me to try
to stop them however I can.

Even if I am just an abstract
artist.

- Oh, Riles Realty.
That's where I'm going to now.

- Great. I'll get changed.
You can wait for me outside.

- I don't think that's a good...

idea.

Okay.

Like that office that you went
to, three times...

So they have no paper trail
of registration,

business ID,
insurance or contracts.

They've pretty much revealed
themselves as a front

but even fronts need help.

- But why were you using
Eternity to find a date

if you were already dating?

- 'Cause I'm on a deadline,
for my family event.

And nobody's been up to par.

- For you or for your family?

- Okay, my mother is very
traditional.

She wants someone on my arm.
Diane,

she just doesn't like
odd numbers.

I don't really know.

But they've given me
an unnamed plus-one.

- That's surprising.
Diane didn't seem to be

all about the symmetry,

she really had an eye for
the abstract.

- I've got no idea why she wants
me to be with someone

so badly, but she does.

What about you?
Any pressure from family?

- I, no... I...

- Here, let me help.

- It's fine.

- What's the emergency?

- It's nothing serious.

- That's not what you said
on the phone...

- I might be overreacting.

But after our chat about
Eternity, I got to wondering,

what if Johnny is some kind
of conman too?

I haven't seen him in person
since last weekend.

And he's not answering my calls.

- Maybe he's busy.

- Yes. With work,
in the city, yesterday.

And today he's playing tennis,
like he does every Saturday.

Doubles. Court B.

- Would you like me
to go to the tennis club
and check on him?

- Ah, what a good idea!

I'll wait here.

- It's not here,
there's no real estate agent.

- There could be an entrance
around the back.

Are you calling them?
- No, my assistant.

- At least we can get a coffee
while your assistant

figures out where it is.

- Couldn't we go some place
with table cloths?

- You've never been
to Mickey's cafe?

- No.

- Have you ever been
to any health food cafe?

- No.

- You're a weird guy.

I'm just gonna order for you.

- Coffee. Black.

- Nothing?

- Well the office is registered
on this block, but no.

- Let's figure out
what we're going to say
when we do find them.

- I thought I'd do the talking.
- Right.

- Go with "legal matter",
show them my card?

What were you thinking?

- How did you get into
lawyering?

I mean, what kid looks at
endless paper work

and meetings on meetings
and thinks,

"Ah, that would be
a good job."

- I come from a long line
of lawyers.

In my whole family tree,
all the way back out

to the founders of the city.

And running my father's firm
was the dream when I was a kid.

You always know you wanted
to be an artist?

- Yes.

But I was the only creative
in my family.

It came as a shock to everyone
when I told them

I intended to go to art school.

So my parents put all of their
energy into sending me

to art school in Paris.

And they never once
stopped encouraging me
to follow my heart,

to chase my passions.

My father called
it my artist spontaneity.

- Artist spontaneity?

- That's them!

- Oh.

Let's get him.

- Excuse me.

- Yes.

- We need to speak--
- We're here about...

What she means is that
I'm Will Williams

of Williams and Williams,
lawyer.

- Not my lawyer. But we are here
on a legal matter.

- What?

- We need to discuss something
illegal.

- No. No, we need to get
information from this person.

- About a company
that is breaking the law.

And breaking hearts.

- What I need is the direct
contact information

for the offices you rented at
50 Boulevard Street.

- I'm... I can't help you.

- Do you want me to cite
the legal obligations

we have to hold these details.
Or we can just review

the scant paperwork you seem
to have misfiled

about where your shoddy
office really is.

If it even exists.

You've got 30 minutes
to get me that contact.

- We'll wait right here.

- Mickey's has good coffee...

- So, someone else was playing
in his spot.

- But I just texted him how
was tennis, he said, "Great".

- Everyone at the tennis club
knew him as Johnny,

so he's not conning you.

- Why is he lying to me then?

- How did you know
that the real estate agent
was sketchy too?

- Because I had my office
research them.

It's all part of the plan
to unravel these guys.

- Great planning.
- I don't just leap into things,

I never do.
Unlike some people.

- Have you ever just wanted to
throw everything up in the air?

- Not all change is good.

That's the real estate agent and
he's forwarding the address.

There?

I'll start researching first
thing Monday morning.

- Wait, no, I'm not free until
Monday lunch.

We will go together then.

- Alright, go, go, go! Around
the bend, down the centre.

Past the centreline...

Go, go... And score!

Uh! Oh! Nice goal.

- Five more minutes and
we have got to go.

- Do we have to go back
to the hotel?

- Absolutely.

- I promised them that
we would help with the party.

- Why do people have anniversary
parties?

- Because it's an achievement.

It's something to celebrate.

- I told grandma
I can be your plus-one.
- Did you now?

- But she said that a plus-one
is a wife or a girlfriend.

- Yes. Yeah. It's a partner.

- I don't think
I'll get married.

- I hope not,
you're only eight years old,

that would be odd.
- I meant when I'm older.

I would rather play soccer.
- Me too, buddy. Me too.

Now go ahead, pack this up.
Let's go.

- Hello?

Oh, just leave it
at the doorstep please.

- Still no Johnny?
- Nothing.

- But last you heard
he was planning a once month

anniversary dinner for you.

Maybe this is just when
you learn that Johnny

is not a great communicator.

- Maybe I'm being haunted.

- You mean ghosted.

I'm gonna have to extend
my dating ban.

I'd forgotten the stress,
who's who, who's really who
they say they are?

I should take another
six months out.

- I might join you.
I'm certainly not dating

anyone else until
I have found Eternity.

- They've still not gotten
back to you?

- Maybe they're just super-busy
with other couples.

- Do we know anyone else
who was matched by them?

- It's him!

"I'm so sorry, I'm at
the office, it's an emergency.

I'll call you later
when I'm home. All my love"

- See?
- Nothing to worry about.

- Ellen. I have an online class
in an hour,

so let's do what we can do.

- You know, I've never really
paid much attention

to the architecture in here.

It's stunning.
Did your dad help design it?

- He laid the first brick.

- That's quite the legacy.

The building and the law firm.

- Yeah, he really wanted
something to keep in the family.

- Is Diane's son meant
to take it on next?

- Diane's son?
- Hate to break it to her,

but math and art don't exactly
add up to lawyering.

- Okay, actually, so...
I'm not familiar

with who's running
the rooms anymore.

Usually it's either
just been tech or finance,

but as soon as we find out
who's conning us,

we're gonna kick them out
of the building.

So this is what I found in
my research. Butler and Company.

It's in the west side, which is
where it's supposed to be.

However, that number is wrong.

- Okay, we'll let's just go up
and see.

- Not so fast. 67 west
is what it's supposed to be.

But the name is different,
this is O'Hara.

- Right.

- So which one is it?

- Well let's just go up
and check.
- Slow down.

We should focus, make a plan
so we're not wasting time.

- Debating about wasting time
is wasting time.

Why don't we just ask him

exactly where it is?
Excuse me!

We're looking
for Butler and Company,

it's number 67 west but
we don't have a floor number.

- Uh, try floors one and 20.
- Really?

- And every floor in between.

- Every floor?!
- Yeah.

- This way, Ellen.

What are we supposed to do,
check every single door?

- We can knock and ask.

- Or you could just go talk
to your doorman friend again.

- Just because he didn't know
doesn't mean somebody else
won't.

Things don't always have
to follow a repeated pattern.

Nothing is limited by
what has happened before.

- Are you talking about
abstract art again?

Because if you are,
you're gonna lose me.

Is that all part of your plan?
- I don't have a plan.

Planning is not something
I find appealing.

If we're going to work
together on this,

that is something you're going
to have to compromise on.

That is one of your skills
as a lawyer, right?

Compromise.

That's it! It's a match.

- No way.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I appreciate that you're
impetuous but that's trespassing

and invasion of privacy,
we're not doing that.

- Impetuous is just a snobby
word for impulsive.

- No, no.

- Wow.

- Can I help you guys find
something?

- Can I help you find something?

My family owns the building.

- Um, the address.

Could you check that again?

- Come with me.

The guy you're looking for
wears a fedora.

And he always sits at
this bench.

- How do we know he'll be here?
- Routine.

He doesn't change a thing.

- I do not feel like this
investigation

is headed in the right
direction.

- Well, at least it is headed
in a direction.

I will admit, maybe
asking the doorman wasn't
the best plan.

- But we didn't have a plan.

Remember?

- Let's make one now.

- What, a plan?

Oh, you're being serious.

I just assumed you'd be
a tougher negotiator.

- Well then you're confused
about how compromise works.

- Why don't we start by being
a little less impulsive?

- How about you start by being
a little less stubborn?

- You know, stubbornness
isn't always a flaw.

In fact, I put it down
as a positive character trait

in my Eternity interview.

- Me too.

What else did you say?

- I said that I was looking
for an ambitious businesswoman,

successful, who knows
what she wants.

But not someone who would
push me out of my comfort zone,

somebody who would accept that
I'm happy the way that I am.

- Well, since I've known you,

you have gone
to a health food cafe

and you drank charcoal coffee.

- Please don't remind me,
I still have the taste in
my mouth.

- You only know you don't
like it because you took a risk.

Birchwood would never put
that on their menu.

- You don't know that.
They changed the art.

- Maybe you'll learn
to like it.

- Maybe you'll learn
to do something different.

Maybe you'll try to do something
a little less abstract.

Where would your laid-back
artist type get his coffee?

- Probably a long list of cafes
that I would probably like.

- You know what it takes
for a long list?

It takes organization.
Research. Strategy.

Sounds like a planner.

- Well he would have to be

in order to balance me out but

he would have to match me
in ambition.

- Are they looking at us?

- Oh, no, I'm in a suit,
we're not here for...

No, no, no.

- No, no, no.
- No, no, no, I...

- Um...

- I have two left feet.
- Me too!

Oh.

- Here.
- Okay. Um...

- You have to let me lead.
- I thought you were.

- How can you think
you're letting me lead?

I can feel the pressure.
Just let me lead,

it's my--
- Left foot goes first.

- Oh, yeah, I know...

- Is everything okay?

- I'm fine. Everything's okay.
I just...

Where's Mr. Butler?
Did we already miss him?

- No, he never showed.

- I'm gonna talk to the doorman.

So what happened?
Where's the guy in the fedora?

He never showed up, you said
he was gonna be here.

- I don't know, but you guys
should definitely

come back tomorrow at lunch and
work on your, uh, "cha-cha-cha".

- I don't think so.
- No, we're not dancers.

- Alright.
I'm gonna get some cake.

- It's okay. All of this
is okay, it's fine.

We're gonna talk to
the real estate agent tomorrow,

I'm sure they're withholding
information from us.

- I hope so. I mean,
we've got nothing to lose.

- My entire afternoon is gone.

And I can't be late tonight.

- Tonight? Do you have a date?

I wasn't gonna start dating
until we found Eternity.

- I'll talk to you tomorrow,
Ellen.

- I want cake.

- What's all this?
Pencils and charcoal?

What's got into you?

- Just trying something outside
my comfort zone.

You know, I'm not sure what this
is going to be yet.

I just need to prove
a point to Will.

I mean, it's time
I try something new again.

Put my money where my mouth is.

Isn't there some sort
of compromise to be found?

- Compromise?

I thought you'd tell me to run
toward it

and see what happens or run
far, far away.

- What's wrong
with a traditional date?

- Nothing...

if you like tradition,
but I don't.

- We don't actually know
what Johnny is up to.

We have no facts, right?

You have met
the love of your life

and you are terrified
that things aren't going
to work out right.

I would be exactly the same way.

- Am I subconsciously
self-sabotaging this?

What should I do?

- We could set aside
everything you think

might happen and actually see
what Johnny has,

or hasn't planned.

We could make a plan.

- A plan?

Are you okay, Ellen?

- You should see what
she's doing in the studio.

- What?
- Nothing.

Yet.

- What do you think?

- Hm. Do they have pizza?
- No.

No, we're trying something new.

- But what if I don't like it.
- Then I'll eat it.

- What are you gonna get?

- That.
- What is it?

- I don't know.

- Maybe I should have the same
thing as you.

Or auntie Diane.
- Dash, pick whatever you want.

Go on.

Take a risk.

- What's the inspiration?

We have great interest
in your abstracts.

- I just needed
to try something new.

- Is this anything
to do with Will's critique?

- I didn't realize Will's,
"What is that"

made such an impact.

Or did he say something else?

- We spent the afternoon
together.

Looking for a contact
for Eternity.

We did not talk about art.

- What did you talk about?

- Nothing much.
And then he went on a date.

- What happened at lunch?
You came back with your suit

creased, your tie loose...

- Well, firstly, I spent
my lunch dancing with Ruby.

65 years young. The merenge
or "cha-cha-cha," apparently.

- Well, Ruby must be
very special to get you
on the dance floor.

Maybe she's free for
the party.

- Why do you keep pushing
for me to bring someone

that's not right for me?

- Nobody's gonna be right
for you

until you let yourself move on.

You're allowed to.

- Hey, buddy. What'd you pick?

- I think I'll try
the vegan pie.

A girl in my class is vegan.
- Well, if you like it,

I'll get you some vegan food
for my party.

- But don't tell Granny,
she's gonna act like

she doesn't know what it is.

- If you still don't have
a girl to take,

there's room on the kid's table.
I saw it at the hotel.

- No offence, but I think
I'm gonna be Granny's plus-one.

So I can sit with the adults.

Hey, why don't you bring
this girl, the vegan girl?

She could be your plus-one.

- Not if you're on your own.

- I have two meetings
after lunch

then I'm free
if you need any help.

I might have spread sheet
blindness by then.

- I am meeting Angela
about the new hotel commission.

- I wonder if she's heard
anything more from Johnny.

- I really hope she got
all of that wrong.

- Or he's got it all right.

- Either way, we will be there
to pick up the pieces.

- You're such a good friend
to her.

And to me.
- Friend?

- You are the big sister
I never had.

- That's more like it.

- Wow! That's fantastic.

- Thanks.

He is really caught
in the moment.

Not worried about
past or future.

It's really helped me
to realize that I need to be

more in the here and now.

Stop worrying so much
about where the wind

is gonna take me next.

- It's so different for you.

- Mom and dad would be furious
that I've been sitting around

and waiting
for the right thing

instead of trying to tap into
something different.

I can't keep using them
as an excuse.

- You've just been protecting
yourself.

- I've been pretending.

And not trusting in me.

And that is no way to live
and it is no way to work.

All of my best work
always came from my heart.

- And your best advice?

- Sorry, I'm late!

Oh, hey buddy.

- Where's Diane?

- She's on her way

and she said don't do anything
until she arrives.

- Now, do you have a plus one?

- Yes. She's the most beautiful
woman in the world.

You.

- Oh, that's very sweet,
William,

I'm sure your father
would approve

but you're
not cramping my style,

especially on the dance floor.

You're appalling.

- Thanks, Mom.

- Do you have anybody to bring?

- Dash, the hard part is finding
someone who's just right for me

and right for my family.

- I can help.

- It's a little late for that,
the party's real soon.

- You need to get a real
girlfriend, not just somebody

for this party.

- Did you see your vegan
friend at school today?

Dash, now I know
something's going on.

In my office, now.

What's her name?
- Sophia. She likes soccer.

- She likes soccer, does she?
She sounds great.

- I might ask her
if I can sit next to her.

But what if she says no?

- Why would she say no?

- Because some things

in life don't happen
the way you want.

- Sometimes.
But sometimes they do.

- How nice! Hmm.

Oh, the installation is gonna
be right through here.

- Great.
- And what time is that?

Thank you.

- Was that Johnny?

- The dinner cruise.

They told me Johnny's got
a VIP table

and he's showing up early
to set up red roses.

Yellow dahlias are my favourite.
I have to call him.

I'll catch you up.

- Sorry.

- Come on, that's gonna be
prime real estate.

That's a great spot.

I want
a different table.

- Okay, we are gonna make
sure that you're gonna be safe.

- Hello.
- Hi.

- Hello, Ellen!
- Hey, Dash!

- Are you coming to the party?
- No.

I'm here to make some
art for this hotel.

- Now?

- Hey Dash, I'm sure she's busy,

let's let Ellen get back
to work. Come on.

- No, it's alright. I've always
got time for an art fan.

No, I'm not gonna make
any art right now.

What I'm gonna do is take
a bunch of pictures,

and then I'm gonna make
sketches

and then I'll

go back to my studio

and do some experimenting.

- Yeah, I'm sure just whatever
comes to mind.

- Yes. I'm gonna do
some drawing,

I'm gonna do some painting.

I'll probably get really messy.

- Sometimes when I make things,

at the end I don't like them.

- That's okay, that happens
to all of us.

It happens to me, it happens
to my cousin Chloe

when she's trying
out new recipes,

but that's okay, because being
creative and trying new things

is half the fun.

- Hey, you know what, buddy?

Determination and hard work,

that's what it's about.

- My Grandpa always said,

"Never give up on anything."

- Well, hello!
What brings you here?

We're planning Diane's
tenth anniversary party.

The entire family is coming
from all over.

- Yes, Will told me.

I'm here working on
an installation for the hotel.

It wasn't you
who recommended me, Will?

- No.

- Well, I can't wait
to see your design.

Dash and I are big fans.

- Yeah, maybe move away
from the abstract,

something with heart?

- I'm gonna go take some more
photos.

You guys have a great day.

- Call me back, please.

Do you have everything?
Do you need anything else?

- No. I've got this covered.

How about you go take
a minute for you?

Go to the park.
- You know me so well.

But, maybe we should--
- No.

I'm just gonna snap
a few more photos

and then I'm out of here.

- Thank you.

- Will?
- Please, leave a message.

- It's...
- Kat? Yeah, I got your message.

Are you sure that's her?
- Yes, I never forget a face.

What if she sees us?

- We'll make sure she doesn't.

- Is it okay to just walk
in here?

- Wait, I can't believe it.
We lost her?

- Well, she can't have gone far.

- Are there any side exits?
- I don't think so.

- I'm gonna ask him. Hang on.

Are there any other exits?
Side exits?

Anything like that other than
the front door?

- No, the only way in or out is
the front door.

No side exits.

- I'm sorry for pulling
you away from your family stuff,

I thought we could follow Kat
back to the headquarters,

bust the whole con.

- Well, I really don't think

Eternity is based out of here.

But we can wait.

- I mean, what is she doing?

- Maybe she's keen
on mid-century impressionism,

or the neo-classics.

- What piece would you take,

if you could walk out of here

for free, no crime committed?

- That square one over there.

- A Monet? Really?

- Is that what it is?

It would just match the blinds
in my living room.

What about you?

- It would be impossible
to choose.

That's why I became
an artist.

So I could make more art
that people wanted to see.

- Seems like you're pretty
successful at it.

- Thanks. I never take it
for granted,

art is always on the move.

- Yes, it is. My job,
it's pretty static.

It's more about precedent
than change.

- Well, someone has to set
a precedent, right?

In order for there
to be a change.

- Yeah, but I don't think
I could handle the kind

of rejections you must get.

- Well, I did try to make it
sound pretty effortless to Dash

but in reality,
it is a lot of technique,

plenty of trial and error.
And...

I also put a lot of myself
into my work

and that can be risky.

Especially if a client
does not like it.

- Or if there's an idiot
nearby who doesn't think

before he speaks.

I'm sorry about what I said
at the hotel

about your next piece
coming from the heart.

That was really rude of me.

- Well, what I haven't told you,

and I did not mention
to Eternity, is that

I lost my parents just
a little over a year ago.

And I've kind of been hiding
behind abstract art ever since.

- Ellen, I'm really sorry.

- My parents were my idols.

They were so supportive
of me throughout everything.

- They sound great.
- They were great.

And a great couple.
A perfect match.

I just want to find something
that's...

close to what they had.

And if...

And if I don't, I feel like

I would somehow
be letting them down.

- I think it's okay, I think
anybody would feel that way.

- I lost more than
just my parents that day.

I feel like I lost my ability
to really open up my heart

and trust in my emotions.

I've put myself
behind this barrier

and I stopped putting any
real feeling in my work,

as you noticed.

- I don't know, you seem

pretty good at trusting your

emotions to me.

- Will, maybe we should just let
this go.

I mean, you could be with
your family right now

helping plan the party.

I feel like that's more
important.

- No, Ellen. This is important.
It is.

- I mean, Kat, she's probably

already slipped out
a fire exit,

donned some sort of elaborate

disguise and melted
into the crowd.

Eternity is very good
at covering their tracks.

- I'm not giving up.

We aren't giving up.

- That's her.

It's her!

- Wait, your purse!

Let's stick with her all
the way back to headquarters.

We're not gonna let this go.

- Maybe she has a date?

Wouldn't that be ironic?

You're gonna wear this in court?

- Very funny.

She's moving.

Why don't you go ask her
about her new dating service?

If you're interested.
Unless you already got one?

- Not yet.

- Oh, honey, wow. This would go
so good with...

- My eyes.

- This is actually
really lovely.

- Yeah, it is.

- She's leaving.
- Go, go!

Woah, woah, wait, wait.

Okay, I'm gonna go ask him
what she said,

unless you had the same idea
and you were gonna go ask him?

- No, that's great.
I'll follow Kat.

Use your serious lawyer face.

- What serious lawyer face?
- That one.

- Excuse-me, you were just

speaking with a woman

in a black dress,

she was talking to you,

what did she say?

- Hey!

- I just had an emergency!

- No, wait... Excuse-me!

- What was that?
- I don't know, he didn't say.

He just said he had an emergency
and threw these in my hand.

I have a feeling he's not
coming back.

- Definitely not.

- Well, I'm letting these go.
- No!

We can give them away?
- Why? What for?

- For fun! Come on.

- Johnny? We need to talk.

- The looks on their faces--
- I know, I know.

- You know,
thank you for today.

- What are you thanking me for?

- I don't know.
But I had a great time.

Here, one last balloon for you.

- Keep it. Give it to Dash.

Look! Look!

- Is that your agent?
- Yes!

And that is definitely not
what we were worried about.

This is perfect.

- I think I'm gonna give up
planning completely.

Entirely. I've done things
today that I would have
never done before.

- And the sky didn't fall in?

- Not that I noticed.

Will I see you tomorrow?
We can regroup,

you know, think about our next
steps with Eternity.

If you'd like.

- Yes, actually I'm gonna be

at the Birchwood finishing up.

I should be done just before

they start their lunch service.

- Then I'll see you tomorrow,
of course, I'll be there.

For lunch.
'Cause I'm a creature of habit.

- Right.

Okay, um... I, uh...
- Sorry.

I'm that way.
- Yeah.

See you tomorrow.

I'm all finished.

- Excellent!

I've had lots more enquiries
about you.

- That's great, but...

I want to know how
it went with Johnny!

Is it over?

- Oh, it was perfect.

Sunset in the park
and a picnic.

And he introduced me
to his parents on that boat.

His father had
always wanted to go.

And the roses were
a gift to his mother.

They kept calling me
"Johnny's fiancée" all night.

- I want to hear everything,
come to lunch with me,

I'm headed back over
to the Terrace Hotel.

- Were you not inspired after
I left? Should I be worried?

- Oh no, no.
Everything is totally fine.

I just left
straight after you.

With Will.

- Tell me more?

- It's just business.

- Court overrun or
did you forget our lunch?

- When have I forgotten
anything?

- What's the hurry?
- I'll see you in there.

- Okay, give me one
of your fake yawns again.

Oh! That ring!
Did you just get engaged?

- Ellen!

I got caught up. Court.

- I actually just finished.
- Finished?

I'm sure it looks great.
- Thanks.

- Shall we go, Ellen?
- Wait, what if we...

- Met up later?
- Yes.

- Tonight?
- I can't.

- You've got a date?
- Yes.

With... With Dash.

I promised him that I would
take him out to pizza

after he did soccer
with Diane.

- Hello.

Will?

- Uh...

Would you and Dash want
to come over to my place?

We could make pizza,

we could talk about
our next moves with Eternity.

I'll show Dash my art studio.

- Sounds like a great idea.

How's seven?
- Perfect.

When you're all done,
set it in here,

sift that right in. Easy.

- Okay.

- So you want me
to show you again?

- I'm nervous.
- What could go wrong?

- I could set the oven on fire,

I could set the house
on fire,

I could set the studio on fire
and ruin all of my work.

I could make pizzas
that Dash hates.

I could make pizza
that Will hates.

I could make pizza that makes us
all violently ill.

- Wow, you really brought along
your self-saboteur.

- Why do I feel like this?

- Because it's a date
and you know it.

- It is not a date.
His nephew is coming.

What if you're wrong?
- I could be wrong.

I've not gone on a date

for months and all
of them were a disaster.

I could have misinterpreted
the facts:

he's coming here for dinner
because you asked him.

Because he likes you.

- Or it's because
we were working together.

- And there's the way
he looks at you.

And the way you look at him.

- Okay, fine. So maybe there is
a little something

between Will and I.

- With all your artistic
knowledge

you're just calling it
"something"?

- Chloe, it's so different.
He makes me feel so different.

But can I trust him to be
my partner in crime?

- He already is your partner
in crime.

You two are running around
together spying on people.

- But can I trust him
with my heart?

I mean, what if he's
not the one?

- What if he is?

Good luck!

I'll go out through the back.

- Hey.

I... I brought everything
I have on Eternity.

Plus some new information.

Research that my assistants
did this afternoon.

- Did you forget Dash?

- No. Diane's bringing
him in about half an hour.

I just figured we could
go over some files

until he got here.

- Uh, great. Come on back.

- Wow, this is amazing!

And is this a pizza oven?

Dash has been after me
for one of these for ages.

- It is my cousin's, but I have
had a full safety briefing.

So we should be okay.

- Hey, do you mind if I set
this down over here?

- Of course.

- And you got
every single topping.

- Yeah, I had you down
as an anchovy guy

and Dash as more of
a pepperoni, extra cheese.

- What made you think I was
an anchovy guy?

Enough said.

- I didn't want to make
a plan though,

so I just went ahead
and got everything.

- Well, for the record,
I'm not an anchovy guy,

they're a bit spiky for me.

But what's your go-to?

- Don't laugh at me.

It's pineapple and ham.

- Oh. I would keep
that to yourself.

- Yes and I hate olives.
- What?

- I know!
- But olives are delicious.

- Ugh.

- Mm.

- You hungry? Skip lunch again?

- Is it that obvious?

- How about you and I

make a couple practice pizzas
before Dash gets here?

- Sounds like a great plan.
Where do we start?

Do we roll them out?

Throw them in the air?

What do we do?

- Let's start with rolling up

these sleeves.

- Touché.

He can never know.

- About the pineapple
and the ham?

- That too.

Dash, he has a really bad
case of FOMO.

He'd be upset if he found out
I made pizza without him.

I'm talking like,
eternal grudge.

- I will take
the fall for this one.

I was the same way
when I was a kid.

- Dash definitely keeps
us on our toes.

He's now vegan.

Because there's a girl
in his class that's vegan.

- Oh. Well, I do have vegan
cheese and plenty of vegetables.

- No, no, no. He already said
pizza doesn't count.

- Of course it doesn't.

Kids are great.

I hope I have a family

of my own one day.

- Ellen, before Dash
gets here...

- Is that the Eternity
date alarm?

- Good memory.

- I mean, how could I forget,

it was "the worst half hour
of your life".

- Okay, okay.

That was for the pizza.

Careful, it's hot.

Wow, mine actually
looks like a pizza.

That's surprising.

- You know, mine was really more

of an attempt to impress Dash

but I have to admit,
yours is better.

- Ellen, everything you do
is impressive.

Whatever you try,
it always works out.

Except pineapple on a pizza.
That'll never work.

- I actually just finished
a new piece of art.

It's not for a client,
it's just art for art's sake.

- What is it?

- Something that helped me
open up.

Helped me trust in being
honest in my work again.

- So it's not abstract?

- I think it's better
if I just show you.

- Dash?

- I hope you and Diane
don't mind.

He has such a sweet face.

There's a real family
resemblance between you two.

You don't like it?

- Oh no. No, no, no.
I absolutely love it.

- It's intrusive. I'm sorry,
I just kept recalling the image.

- That's okay. I know you said
you never forget a face.

This is not intrusive,
this is incredible.

- Thank you.

- Would you ever consider
selling it?

To me, I could give it to Diane
as an anniversary gift?

- Wow. Yeah, of course.

You like it that much?

- Who wouldn't?

- Dash made it easy.

Kids are great subjects,

they are terrible
at hiding how they feel.

He is totally lost
in the moment.

- There's something
that I need to tell you.

- Um.

I'll get the door.

- Yeah, I'll um...
I'll get the pizzas.

- Hey!
- Hey guys!

Will is out back,
pizza oven is hot and ready.

- Pizza oven?!
- Cool!

It's great Will's got time
off work to spend with Dash.

And you.

- Thanks for bringing me,
Aunty D.

- Have fun. Bye.

- Dad!
- Hey, buddy!

How was soccer?
- Good.

A pizza oven? So what's first,
Ellen? What do we do?

- How about you run in
and wash your hands first?

- Yeah, go inside, buddy.
Wash your hands. I'll wait here.

- It's right through there.
Around the corner.

Dash is your son?

- Yes.

- You let me believe
he was your nephew.

- I was gonna tell you.

- Really? After lying to me
all of this time?

- I didn't lie exactly.

- You could've told me
when I showed you the portrait!

Or anytime since we've met.

- This is the anytime.

- Of course there's
a family resemblance.

- This really wasn't
my intention.

- What was?

- I just didn't think that I was
gonna find someone for me,

someone who'd need telling.

- It is obvious
that you still haven't.

- I wanted to tell you,
I really did,

but I just didn't want
to get Dash involved in case

it didn't work out.

- If you'd have been
upfront about this

it could've worked out!

I told you about my heartbreak
with my parents

and that I was so afraid that
I wouldn't find what they had.

I really thought you would've
been honest with me too.

But this,

this lie throws everything
right back into my face.

- Technically, I didn't lie.

- Try harder, Will.

Withholding the truth
is the exact the same thing.

You're a lawyer,
you know that.

- Change of plan, buddy.

- But I wanted pizza!
- Come on.

We'll eat at Pizza Plaza
on the way home.

- But why?

- 'Cause Ellen and I
made a mistake about tonight.

- This is gonna be fun,
buddy, come on.

- Hey guys!
- Hey.

- The tailor did a great job,
you're gonna look so handsome.

- Can we go home
so I can put it on?

- No, after we play
in the park, come on.

- How did last night go?
- Fine, nothing happened.

We ate at Pizza Plaza.
- Why?

- Because it's consistent
and reliable, Diane.

- That's not what I meant.

- Can you just go up ahead,
play for a little bit?

I'll be there in a minute.

I made a mistake.

I made a mistake
with Ellen and Dash.

- How exactly?

- I didn't disclose
that Dash was my son.

And she thought
he was yours all along.

- And you let her.
- Yeah.

- She's gonna think you don't
trust her with both your hearts.

- Please don't
be disappointed in me, Diane,

I'm doing plenty
of that for myself.

- Hey! Double espresso for you,

and in here there's emergency
brownies, red velvet cake

and cookies.

What happened?
Is he secretly married?

- No.

Maybe... No, no. It's Dash.

He's Dash's dad.

- Did he tell you last night?
- He didn't.

Dash did.

- He got a kid to break
the news to you?

- Not really.

- That was pretty idiotic
of Will.

But you love kids.
And Dash is a good one.

- Will has had so many
opportunities to tell me.

I mean, last night,
I showed him the portrait.

I even pointed out what

an amazing family
resemblance there was.

All he said is he wanted
to buy it for Diane.

- So he didn't out-and-out lie?

- He didn't have to.

He's a lawyer, a good one.

He has been cherry-picking
what information to tell me

and redirecting our

conversations so he does not

have to tell the truth.

You know, I really thought
he was opening up to me.

He told me he was stuck
in routines

and he was scared of change.

- Same suits, same lunch.

- He said he was doing
it all for Dash,

but he's really just doing it
to protect himself.

- Do you know what happened
with Dash's mom?

- I didn't know she existed
until last night.

Will told me he'd never

thought he would find someone

who was right for him.

But he meant someone
who would live up to her.

- He had lost confidence
that he could be happy again.

- Yes. But I trusted him
to be as open as I was.

- I don't think
he meant to hurt you.

- He's not ready to move on

and I think he's known
that all along.

Not being honest
about Dash proves it.

- What can I do to help?

- Unwrap the brownies.
- Okay.

- And you can come with me
to deliver the portrait?

His assistant texted
me a time and place.

- Of course.

If you see him there is there
really nothing to talk about?

- No. No.

I should have trusted my
instincts when I first met him.

He's just not
the match for me.

Come on.

- Well, it looks like you've got
the best table there, buddy.

- You're seated
next to Uncle Mike.

- Great.

I get to spend the evening
talking about fly fishing.

- You didn't want a plus-one.

- You should be happy.

You didn't want a plus-one
and now you haven't got one.

Not even Ellen.

- Ellen was never a plus-one
for this party.

- She could have been.

- Dash, I think Ellen's great.

And I really liked her,

mostly because she liked you.

But it turned out I was wrong
and she doesn't like me.

- She does.

Girls don't invite boys

to dinner for no reason.

She doesn't like that
you lied about me.

- I know. I know.

And nobody would like being lied

to about that.

- So why did you do it?

- Um...

Because I was scared.

- Of what?
- Getting hurt.

Of you getting hurt.

So I accidentally ended up
hurting her.

I didn't mean to do it,
but I did.

And it's all on me.
- Then you need to apologize.

- I really don't think saying
sorry is gonna be enough.

- Yes it will,
if you get her a present too.

- You really like Ellen, huh?
- Yes. And so do you.

Wanna make a plan?

- Okay. What do you got?

- Just go to her house
with a cool present

that only you would know
she likes.

Then she'll see you noticed
her and you like her.

- Okay.

Hey actually, you know, Ellen's
gonna be here in about an hour

to drop off
Diane's anniversary gift.

- Even better.
You just need to bump into her.

Especially in that suit,
you look great.

- Dash, this may not work.

- I know. Just promise me
you'll try?

- Yeah, I promise.

- Are you sure you don't want me
to drop it off on my own?

- I promised.

- Did you?

I know what you're doing.

- Just let me have my moment
of "might have been."

And then I will take you out
to dinner.

- Deal.

- Just not pizza.

- Dad's gone to fix something.

- Was it his suit?
Did he split his pants?

- No. But it's super important.

- It better be very important
to miss greeting the guests.

- It is, promise.

- Hi.
- Hi!

- Your gift from Will.

- It's Ellen!

- Oh, wow!

The table's over there.

Thank you.

- I hope you look it.

- We have to make her wait

until Dad gets back.
It's a part of our plan.

- Plan? What's going on, Dash?

Hello, Ellen.
- Hi.

Diane's gift from Will.

- Oh, he's terrible at gifts.

Well, it's much too big for
the gift table.

Uh, we should get William
for you, we'll be right back.

- Oh no, no. Um...

I can leave it with you.

- Are you sure you can't stay?

Have a glass
of champagne with me.

- That's really sweet, Dash

but I don't think
you're allowed champagne.

And I'm not really dressed
for a party.

- Doesn't matter
what you're wearing.

Have a glass
of champagne with me.

- Thank you.
But I think we should go.

You guys have
a really nice evening.

- Did you get it?
- Yes. Has she gone yet?

- That way!

- Whatever is going on, William?

- Sure you don't want
to hang around?

- No, let's just go and eat.
- Ellen!

Okay, I know you don't want
to talk to me right now,

but please take this.
- What for?

- It's an apology.
You'll like it.

- How would you know?

You don't seem
to know me at all.

- Wait, wait, wait!

I don't give up.

I uh...

- Don't have a plan for this?
- I did.

Just not beyond this point.

Wait, okay, you're right!
You're right.

You're tight,
I'm a routine guy, okay?

I'm scared of broadening
my horizons

and way more comfortable
with telling a lie,

a really big, unforgivable lie

than I am with following
my emotions.

You're right.

Ellen, I wasn't looking
to find anyone.

I wasn't meant to fall in love.
But I did.

With you.

On our date we weren't
even close to a match.

100 % wrong.

- Eternity's first fail,
if they had been real.

- Then, we were just working
together to find Eternity.

We didn't plan to spend
that time together.

And Ellen, I had no idea

how long that search
was going to last.

So I withheld the truth
about being a father

because it never even crossed
my mind that you'd become
someone to me.

Someone perfect.

- But why didn't you trust
me with it when you knew?

- It wasn't that I didn't
trust you,

it was that
I didn't trust myself.

I didn't want to open up

to all my past emotions
and hurt.

And I made a promise to Dash
that he would never have to go
through that again.

My ex-wife,
she left both of us.

- I'm really sorry to hear that.

- I knew that I was taking

a risk when I started
falling for you.

And I tried to protect
my old feelings. I did.

And I made a mistake,
a really big mistake

but I'm sorry. I will never
break your trust again.

I promise, Ellen.

Things don't have to follow
a repeated pattern.

Nothing's limited
by what's happened before.

- Give her the gift, Dad!

- Your mom said you were
terrible at gifts.

- Take a risk.

Will you dance with me?

- I can't dance.

- I know. Neither can I.

- He's found his plus-one.

- No. She is much more
than that.

You look stunning.

You know this dress,
it really matches...

- My eyes?

- How about that dance?

You ready?
- As ready as I'll ever be.

That's a first.
- Just let me lead.

- Not a chance.

- You wanna try something risky?

- Ooh, ooh!

If I move my hips a little bit
more, it looks better, no?

- You've convinced me.

- Ooh, ooh!

You're not bad at this!

- Wait a second. Excuse us!

- Pardon us, we're just trying
to get through.

So we weren't conned.

- They knew
before we even met.

Do you know what this means?

- Their 100% success rating
still stands?

- Does that mean you think
I'm the one?

- Ellen, I know that
you're the one.
