Technically Yours (2025)

[bunniefuu]

[MUSIC]

[Phone Ringing]

You're up early.

Good morning.

I wanted to wish you luck.

Not that you need it,

Mrs. Senior Developer.

Don't jinx me.

I'm nervous enough as it is.

Let me see what you're

wearing.

You hate it.

Oh, no, it's great.

You look like Steve Jobs.

But it's super cute.

Maybe fix your neckline a little

bit.

That's better.

You look like a boss.

Okay, good.

All right, I'll let you go.

See you at family

dinner tonight at Nan's?

I would miss it.

Okay, love you.

Bye.

[MUSIC]

I just wanna say that I am

super pumped

to step into this role.

No, no, it's too cutesy.

You're not a cheerleader.

You have a master's degree.

Thank you all.

I look forward to ushering in a

bright

future for all of us here at

RBI.

As a ten-year-old girl who

taught herself

to code, I never thought that I

would.

It's too self-deprecating.

Remember, you deserve this.

Okay, you got this.

Let's go.

[MUSIC]

Where is my mug?

Nice one, Connolly.

Play linebacker in high school?

I am so sorry.

Are you okay?

Well, yeah, I just love having

coffee

spilled all over me,

especially ten minutes

before staff meeting.

[MUSIC]

That's Erin Connolly.

Oh no no no

Well, then let me guess,

you've seen her

viral girls can go to

a commencement speech.

It's tech needs women.

Whatever.

Look, don't believe all

the online hype, okay?

Connolly will be the

bane of your existence.

She doesn't seem that bad.

[LAUGH] Don't get any ideas,

there Casa Nova.

[LAUGH]

[MUSIC]

Look, Erin Connolly

doesn't date men in tech.

Well, not since all that

drama with her and Pete Sacks.

But that was like five years

ago.

Pete Sacks, the tech

millionaire.

[LAUGH]

More like billionaire, my

dude.

But I digress.

Connolly hasn't dated at

all, as far as I can tell.

But that's probably because

she's too

busy fixing all of our bugs and

making us look bad.

[MUSIC]

Sounds like she's just

really good at her job.

I'm not saying the girl can't

code, but

between us, she's a total deck

chair.

Deck chair?

Yeah, she folds under the

pressure.

[LAUGH]

It's kind of her thing.

[MUSIC]

It doesn't matter what

you're wearing, right?

It's all about the fit.

You got this.

Let's go.

All right, everyone, let's get

started.

Now, it'll be a short meeting.

But I've gathered you all to

introduce

the new senior developer.

Now, this is someone that many

of you

have already gotten to know.

But let's run down the old

resume just for kicks, huh?

Graduated at the top of the

class at Cambridge Bay Tech,

which is the best

technical institute in the

country.

And, coincidently, this is my

Alma mater.

[LAUGH] Bringing some much

needed new perspective

to us here at Rufus Bogdan

Industries, and we are

so lucky to have them.

Jack Hudson, everybody.

Yeah.

[APPLAUSE]

Yeah, Jack.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Well, thank you for the

introduction and the warm

welcome.

Technically, I don't start until

next

Monday, but don't hesitate to

reach out.

I'm happy to help, and I look

forward to

working with you all.

All right.

Hey, welcome to work.

Thank you.

Hey, congratulations.

Thanks.

Chris, congrats.

Thanks, man.

Chris, you're the best, man.

Thanks.

Carl, nice to meet you.

Thanks, Carl.

Looking forward to it, Jack.

Me too.

Me too.

Do not let them see you cry.

Hey, uh, Erin, right?

You stole my job.

Mug.

My mug.

Oh, uh, sorry.

It was in the communal cabin.

I didn't realize it was, um...

You want it back?

Keep it.

I work remotely anyway.

I only come in for the meetings.

That's very kind of you.

Thanks, Erin.

So you went to Cambridge Bay

Tech?

Yeah.

What year?

I was actually the year behind

you, and

we only had one class

together, and it was 100

people, and I wouldn't expect

it.

I don't remember you.

Okay.

Uh, well, now we've established

that.

What was the name of the

professor?

You know, of the class

that we took together?

Do you think I would lie on my

resume?

Rufus is best friends with the

dean.

You're deflecting.

What was the name of the

professor?

Brown.

He would wear a sweater vest

every single

day, and he'd smell

like coffee and mothballs.

Okay.

Fine.

You win.

For now.

You know, Erin, not everyone

is trying

to compete with you.

Enjoy the mug.

What just happened?

Are you kidding me?

You didn't get it?

Why does this keep happening?

Let's not make a big

deal out of it, okay?

Especially in front of Nan.

She's been through enough as it

is.

I just don't get it.

You're like the smartest

person in the entire company.

Thank you, Sadie, but

obviously Rufus

doesn't see me that way.

Rufus.

Rufus should be kissing your

feet.

Without you, RBI would be a

bunch of

talentless programmers

banging their heads together.

You know what hurts the most?

It's like he hired someone with

the same

exact qualifications as me.

The only difference?

A Y chromosome.

Oh, sissy.

I'm sorry.

Stupid mug stealing

brogrammer.

Yoo-hoo!

Anyone home?

In here, Nan.

Hey, babe.

Thanks for driving her.

Econ in the house.

Hey, Andrew.

How'd she do?

Great, as always.

[Bell Rings]

Oh, that'll be dinner.

Erin, darling, you're

looking a little flushed.

Could it be that there's a

strapping

young man in your life, at last?

Or could it be that the

thermostat's set

to 80 degrees in here?

Touch.

[laughs]

If you all will excuse me for a

moment,

I'd like to freshen up.

Nan, why don't you just

have a seat and relax.

It's just us.

Erin, there is a gentleman

present.

Let me at least fix my hair.

Okay, well, let me help you.

I can manage.

Thank you.

This is lovely, Sadie,

sweetheart.

Just lovely.

Thanks, Nan.

Is this mom and dad's wedding

China?

Mm-hmm.

You know, I don't remember

when we had a

dinner this beautiful with

the good China and candles.

I just love candles with dinner.

You were right.

The purple candles are better.

Well, I wanted to make

tonight extra special.

Why?

I know you don't like

surprises, sissy,

but I wanted to wait

until we were all together.

I have some news.

Okay, if it's bad news, just

do what we

did when we were kids

and just rip the band-aid off.

It's not bad.

Seriously, whatever it is, we

can get

through it as a family together.

Just give it to me straight.

Erin, it's not bad.

It's actually wonderful.

Last night, I asked Sadie to

be my wife.

We're getting married.

That's gorgeous, Sadie, honey.

Just gorgeous.

Don't pretend you didn't

help him pick it out, Nan.

He already confessed.

Andrew Grady, you were sworn

to secrecy.

What do you have to say for

yourself?

Well, ma'am, only that I

didn't want to be

the kind of husband to

keep secrets from his wife.

Well, that's a good answer.

Erin, you haven't said a word.

I'm just so happy for you two.

I hardly know what to say.

Well, we hope you say yes

to being my maid of honor.

Of course.

Yes.

Great.

Wonderful.

Well, let's dig in.

[laughter]

It's the sweetest sound

in the world, isn't it?

Hmm?

Young love.

What is it?

I just realized for the first

time, she's

going to be Sadie Grady.

Well, I think she's known she

was going

to end up as Sadie Grady.

Since the night he picked her up

for her

senior prom, I remember that

feeling.

A knock on the door, handsome

young man

standing there, fresh, neat,

clean, full of nervous energy.

Oh, that's just a chill.

Don't fuss. Don't fuss.

[laughter]

You know, loving someone and

letting

yourself be loved,

it's a beautiful thing.

And it's the most

important thing in the world.

Well, that and a good 401(k).

Don't listen to your sister,

Sadie. She's

just being difficult to spite

me.

Well, work can be

important and independence too.

Work isn't life.

Every moment we have is

precious. You

take it from someone who

knows. Love is the answer.

And with you two getting

hitched, I only

have one thing left on my bucket

list.

Going to Dollywood?

Oh, okay, fine. Two.

Erin, I'd like to see you find

someone to

spend your life with.

The thought of you living alone

like you

do, working all the time.

Just you and that computer of

yours.

I'm fine. I love working.

I worry about you.

I don't want you to worry.

Well, Sadie and Andy have

found each

other. I'd like for you to find

someone.

I found someone!

Sissy!

And we're in love.

Oh!

Yeah, it's been going on for a

few months now. He's amazing.

I've never felt like this

before. I think he's the one.

Oh, thank you, God.

Econ, you rascal. Way to bury

the lead.

Well, I didn't want to take

away from your big moment.

Are you kidding me? This is

like the best

engagement present ever.

We're both in love. Yay!

Yay.

Tell me everything.

Oh, boy. Where do I start?

What's his name? Where'd you

meet?

What does he do for a living?

Oh, wait.

Do you think of him as like

everyday hot

or like movie star hot?

Uh, which one am I?

Shh. I want to hear this,

babe. Go on.

Uh... well, his name is Brad.

Cute. Where'd you meet?

The gym, actually.

I didn't know you joined a

gym.

You are just full of secrets,

aren't you?

Yeah, I guess so. Um...

But you know what? We actually

don't have

to talk about this right now.

I know it's like super

boring and this is your day.

Let's celebrate you guys. Yay!

Of course we do!

We want the details.

What's your favorite thing about

him?

Oh. Well, he's uh...

He's really smart.

Yeah. Yeah, like genius level.

He's always recommending

something

interesting, like scholarly

articles or

works of literary...

And he's a doctor.

Oh! Oh, wow. Wow. What kind?

Pediatrician.

Sweet. That's kids, right? Not

feet?

Oh, Andy.

Right, Andy.

So he's good with kids?

I'd say so.

Does he want kids?

Well, you know, we haven't

um... we haven't really...

Wait, babe, if Erin is my maid

of honor,

maybe Brad can be one of your

groomsmen.

No! No.

That'd be great.

Why not? More the merrier?

No.

This is so exciting!

Oh, I love love.

Erin, I'm so happy for

you. I love you so very much.

And I'm sure I'll love your

doctor Brad

when you bring him to see me.

Hey, well, it's time for me to

get some

beauty rest and um...

I'm sure I'll be having sweet

dreams

tonight, my heart is so full.

Okay.

Everybody in.

Come on.

[Text Tone]

Uh...

No can do. Brad is...

Brad is fake. I made him up.

Brad is out of town at a medical

conference in Colorado.

[Text Tone]

Oh, you gotta be kidding me.

Think, Erin, think.

You built your first chatbot

when you

were in middle school,

but you thinking a boyfriend

should be a walk in the park.

That's it. A walk in the park.

[Upbeat Music]

The future with you is

looking...

Bright.

Sunglass smiling.

Send.

The future with you is

looking... bright.

Hey.

Hi.

How'd the meeting with the

investors go?

They won't put any money down

until we

provide a minimum viable

product.

And the kicker is, is

they want it by the first.

Talk to Connelly yet?

No, I haven't had a chance.

And there's the added

challenge that she hates me.

Nobody hates you. Come on.

You're Jack. You're unhatable.

You haven't seen the way she

looks at me.

Wait a second. Does

someone have a little crush?

No.

You have a crush on her!

- What am I, like 10 years old Taylor?

Stop. I don't have a crush.

You totally do. And

you're getting all blotchy.

Okay, look. I am secure enough

and mature

enough to admit to a level of

respect and

admiration for my colleague.

I mean, the fact that she's

self-taught

is just, it's crazy.

Her recall with data

structures, it's mind boggling.

She's easily the best computer

scientist

of our generation, by far.

And you think she's pretty,

and you want

to date her, just admit it. It's

obvious.

Well, she has a boyfriend with

whom she

sees a bright future with, so...

Social media official?

Yep.

Let me see.

Mmm. Yeah. I'm sorry. That's

rough, dude.

I still think we should, you

know,

approach her about the project,

because

she really is the best.

Her boyfriend's hot.

What do you mean? All

you can see is his arm.

He's muscly, but not too

muscly.

Yeah. Honestly, it's like

someone

programmed the algorithm to

create the perfect man's arm.

But you're right. Let's still

approach.

Like you said, Connolly is the

best, and

we need the best if we're ever

going to

get a prototype to the investors

on time.

Okay, uh, yeah. I'll talk to

her next

time I see her at the office.

We don't have time for all of

that. Can't

you just call her? Don't you

have an

employee contact list or

something?

Ahh... Wouldn't that be

overstepping?

What's the problem? Are you

scared to call her?

Aww, you're scared.

You're scared.

Aww, just call her, please.

No, no. You call-

Yes, call her, please. Please.

Now? Right now? You want to

call her right now?

Yes, call her right now,

please.

Oh my god, I can't.

I'm scared. I'll call

her. Just give me a second.

[Phone Ringing]

Hey, Bradzilla.

Haha, very funny. Are you

alone?

Of course I'm alone. When do I

ever have

plans on a Friday night?

Is Dr. Brad still at his

medical conference thingy?

Uh, yeah. His, um, his

presentation got

rescheduled, so he's in

Dallas for a few more days.

I thought he was in Colorado.

Dallas, Colorado. It's a

really big

medical town, apparently.

Huh. I had no idea.

Me either.

Okay. Hi. Hi. Hi. Hi, Erin.

You got this. You got this. You

got this.

Drumroll, please.

Oh, uh...

Andy and I set our date!

Aww, Sadie. Congratulations.

And you're never gonna believe

the venue

we booked. You're gonna flip.

Oh, uh, wait, hold on.

I'm getting another call.

Oh, you want to take it and

call me back?

No, no. Mmm.

Unknown number. It's probably a

scam.

I hate it when the

caller ID says "scam likely."

I imagine it's a real

guy, Mr. Scam Likely.

Saddest guy in the whole world.

No one

will ever take his calls.

There. Now you have

my undivided attention.

And I will return your

call as soon as I'm free.

Hi. Erin Connolly. This is

Jack Hudson.

Not sure why I just said both

our first

and last names right then.

I'm very thorough.

And I hope you are doing well.

Uh, call me back.

And call me back.

Oh, my God.

Where were we?

I was just about to reveal the

location

of my dream wedding.

Wait, let me guess.

The Taj Mahal.

Nope. Like, better. Much

better.

Buckingham Palace?

You're never gonna guess.

Okay. All right. I give up.

The Governor's Mansion.

The Governor's Mansion?

Remember?

Yeah. Yeah. Mom and Dad used

to take us

on walks there all the time.

We called it the...

The Castle.

- The Castle.

Yes, you remember.

Yeah.

Oh, wow. Of course I remember.

You were

obsessed. Your princess

phase was like a princess

decade.

It's the last happy memory I

have of all

of us being together.

You and me. And our princess

dresses. And

Mom and Dad pretending

to be our loyal servants.

Yeah. That was fun.

Wow. I haven't thought about the

Governor's Mansion in ages.

I wanted to get married

someplace with

memories of Mom and Dad.

That way it felt like we

were all there together.

Well, it's a nice

thought, Sadie, but I...

Oh, plus there's nine

bedrooms, six

bathrooms, two dining rooms, a

heated

pool. There's even a full tennis

court.

Okay. But wait, wait just a

second. Okay.

Nan and I wanted to help you pay

for the

venue, but we can't

afford the Governor's Mansion.

That's the best part, Sissy.

Another

renter backed out last minute,

so we got

the place for a steal.

Everything's included. We just

have to

bring our own set up and...

Okay. Wait. What do

you mean by last minute?

Oh, yeah. So, um, that's the

only thing.

The wedding's this Sunday.

This Sunday?

Can you believe it?

Ahh!

- Ahh!

Hey, bro. What's up?

Hey.

I thought you didn't start

till Monday.

I don't... Rufus told me that

the company

laptop was delivered,

so I figured I'd stop by.

Yeah. I see you're

getting your fitness in, huh?

Dude, I love to see it.

Are you on that job tracker?

Well, we should follow one

another. Yeah.

There's a group of us that jogs

around

the lakes on the

weekends. You should join.

Ah, thanks, man, but

running's kind of my alone time.

For sure. See?

Okay. It's Connolly. She's

talking to HR,

though. Maybe she's quitting.

What?

Guy could dream.

Later, man.

Later.

Erin.

Hi.

You can use the mug. I'm not

staying.

No. Wait. Did you get my

voicemail by any chance?

What are you talking about?

I called last night. Left a

voicemail at

7:32. I was rambling sort

of the way I am right now.

Scam likely.

Huh? Sorry?

Nothing. I'm not big on

voice mails, so I

haven't listened to it. Sorry.

It doesn't even matter. Any

chance you're free right now.

I'm actually officially on

paid vacation,

so can we do this some other

time?

I just want to pitch you on

something,

and it won't take very long. I

just need

like 15 minutes. I just

don't want to do it here.

Okay.

Okay. All right.

Just two black coffees.

Thank you.

So, you know, I'll just get

right to it.

I'm working on developing a

program. It's

not for RBI. It's a

passion project of mine.

The idea, and my lawyer Taylor's

hammering out the details, but

the gist is this.

We're using AI technology to

help cancer

researchers determine

patients' best treatments.

Detecting cancer sooner, saving

lives.

That sounds like a worthy

cause.

Thank you.

Yeah. After you.

Okay.

So, I see that you're

interested.

The problem is this, and

this is where you come in.

Our potential investors are

pushing hard

for a prototype by the end of

the month.

This makes it a two-person job.

And even

then, it's an insane timeline.

That is unless your partner

works five

times faster than the average

programmer

and has a track record

of near perfect accuracy.

Look, Jack, I think.

It would be 50-50 ownership of

the IP, of

course. Okay. Between the two of

us, I

think if we designate tasks, we

can

really come up with a solid,

solid

prototype that's going to wow.

- I don't work with partners.

I know. I know. I did my

research, but my guess

is that's because you haven't

found

someone that can keep up with

you.

That's not why.

I had a bad experience with a

partner.

A nightmare, actually.

I'm... Erin, I'm sorry that

that happened

to you. Okay, that's

terrible, but that will not

happen.

So I can assure you that that's

not going

to be the case here.

Look, good luck to you,

really. It sounds

like an important project.

I should really get going.

Dr. Brad!

I'll be right back. I'm

going to get a coffee.

I will pay you my entire

month's salary

if you pretend to be a

pediatrician named Brad.

I don't understand any of

the words you just said.

No time to explain.

Pediatrician Brad.

Done.

Well, hello. Aren't you two

the sweetest?

Dr. Brad, I have heard so much

about you.

I'm Sadie. I'm Erin's little

sister.

So nice to meet you.

Sissy, you did not tell me

that Brad was back in town.

I didn't know myself. He

just stopped by to surprise me.

Oh, that is so sweet.

Oh, wait, I have to get a

picture of you two for Nan.

You don't mind, do you, Brad?

No.

No? No.

Oh, perfect. Squeeze

in. Scoot, scoot, scoot.

Closer.

Aww.

What are you doing here,

Sadie? I thought we

were meeting at the office.

I wanted a coffee.

These are so cute. I'll text

them to you.

You're going to want

to post these seriously.

How sweet is Erin for cashing in

her PTO

to help me on the big day?

The absolute sweetest.

It's about time she took some

time off

seeing us. She

single-handedly keeps that

company afloat.

He knows. Sadie.

Not that they appreciate her.

I mean, can

you imagine passing up this

beautiful,

talented woman just to hire some

mug-stealing bogrammer?

Okay, Sadie, say goodbye to

Brad.

Sorry, sorry.

We should probably get going.

No, no, no. You two stay. I'll

run some

errands. We can catch up later.

What? No, you have so

much to do. Let me help you.

I insist. You enjoy

your coffee with Dr. Brad.

Please, just call me Brad.

Aww. Brad, I feel

like I know you already.

Can I give you a hug?

Sure.

Oh, yay!

You're gonna make my

sister so happy. I just know it.

I can't wait to see you

at the rehearsal Saturday.

Oh, and if you can break away a

little

early, come and stay

with us at the main house.

It'd be perfect.

Latte for Sadie.

Oh, gotta run. It was

so great to meet you.

Pleasure was all mine.

Bye.

Love you.

Excuse me.

Okay, are you gonna tell me

what that was

all about, or should I just send

you my

routing number for that month's

salary

that you promised me?

I can't believe that just

happened. I am so humiliated.

Oh, come on. It wasn't that

bad. It was

actually kind of fun.

Just... just...

Come on, just say it real fast.

Like

ripping off a band-aid. Won't

even hurt.

I made up a fake boyfriend

named Dr.

Brad. He's a

pediatrician we met at the gym.

But why?

I just needed my family to

stop worrying

about my non-existent love

life for like two seconds.

My grandmother is sick, and all

she wants

is for me to find a nice man and

fall in

love and be happy like she did.

But I have known for a long time

that a

relationship is just not what I

want. I'm

married to my work, and I'm

happy.

But I just... I couldn't bear to

disappoint her. Not

now. Not while she's...

Hey.

Wait, are you okay?

Yeah, yeah. I'm sorry. It's

just...

That's like the first time

I've said any of that out loud.

She really means a

lot to you, doesn't she?

She's my favorite person on

Earth.

And the wedding is... this

Sunday. Well...

Unfortunately.

And your sister, the bride,

has it in her

head that I'm Dr. Brad.

You're a quick study.

You know?

It's a shame you aren't an

expert at

finding creative solutions to

complex

problems. I mean, that would

come in so

handy right now. Oh, wait!

No.

You wouldn't...

No, you...

You already know what I

want, Connolly. Make me an

offer.

Hypothetically speaking.

Go on.

If I were to work on

the prototype with you...

Mm-hmm

Would you agree to be my fake

boyfriend

for the next three days?

Yes, deal.

Okay, but I want it in

writing about the shared

copyright.

That's fair.

Okay.

Okay.

Good.

Great.

Great.

Wonderful.

That was productive.

How's the coffee?

Please tell me you're kidding.

I honestly thought she would

say no. But

what was I supposed to do?

Oh, I don't know, Jack. Maybe

anything

other than agree to spend the

whole

weekend out of town playing

boyfriend

when we have a deadline.

Okay, we agreed to spend the

entire time

working. So stop worrying.

This is insane.

Or it's a small price to pay

to get the

MVP done in time to wow the

investors.

Oh, uh...

Don't k*ll me, but I need you to

put

together a contract for

the copyright. Like, now.

I can put something together

and email it

to you. But, Jack, be careful.

Yeah?

It's a family wedding at a

historic

mansion today. It's not a g*ng

fight.

You know what I mean.

Arrangements like this can get

messy.

I know what I'm doing. And I

promise you,

she's not going to be

falling in love with me.

It's not her I'm worried

about.

[Knocking]

Hey.

Hi.

Oh, let me get it.

I forgot to ask if there was

a dress code for the wedding.

I don't know, actually. This

whole thing

came together pretty quickly in

case that

wasn't painfully apparent.

That's cool. I brought

options.

Got you a coffee.

Black?

Of course.

Okay, so are you sure your

family's cool

with me hanging around all

weekend?

Are you kidding? They've

probably already

embroidered Brad on a Christmas

stocking.

About that, are we

totally sold on the name Brad?

What? Yes. It's not like we

can change it now. What?

Why? What's wrong with Brad?

It's just, I never

thought of myself as Brad-like.

Meaning?

Meaning, you know, Brad, it's

the name of

like a hot surfer dude, like,

surf's up,

dude, my name's Brad.

You look exactly like a hot

surfer.

You are passable as a guy

named Brad, is what I meant.

Okay, let's go.

I'm really glad we stopped

here. This place is beautiful.

Yeah, we used to come here

all the time when I was a kid.

I think I'm gonna go for

a run when we get there.

Ew. We're on vacation.

Not a runner, I take it.

No, absolutely not.

Not even if we do it together

and I can

prove to you it's fun.

The only way I would go

running with you

is if there's a bear chasing us.

Running is strictly for

emergencies only.

You're missing out. It really

is the best.

What do you love about it?

When I'm running, I

really feel just at peace.

Well, that I would like.

And when the endorphins kick

in, you feel

this like sky-high feeling.

It's called runner's high.

And it just feels like you're

meant to

just breathe air and be happy.

Okay, weirdo.

Alright, let's get going.

Yeah, let's hit the road,

Jack.

Babe.

Mmm, no.

Sadie and Andy call each other

babe.

It might get confusing.

Sweetie.

Ew.

Snookums.

How about I m*rder you and

make it look like an accident?

So it's a hard-no on Snookums.

Copy.

This place looks like it could

sleep

a hundred. How many

people are staying here?

Just us five.

My sister got a deal to rent the

place

for the wedding and evidently

the owner

invited us to stay the whole

weekend.

This is incredible.

[Gasp]

You're here! It's happening!

Hi.

Hi!

Hi.

Can I help with anything?

Luggage?

- No, no, I got it.

Are you sure?

No worries.

Okay.

Okay, well, go, go, go, go.

I got it, I got it, I got it.

No worries.

Come on.

Isn't it divine?

This is the nicest house

I've ever seen, that's for sure.

I'm staying in the honeymoon

suite. Andy

and I are staying in different

rooms.

I don't want him to see me in my

dress

before coming down the aisle.

I thought you two might want

this room. It has an ensuite.

My allergies are really bad

this time of

year, so I snore. Right, honey?

Oh, yeah, it's not great.

Maybe you should take your own

room. I

hate to be the reason

you weren't well rested.

Yeah, yeah, if you're sure.

You are so thoughtful, Brad.

You know what? Have

you tried nasal strips?

I bought some for Andy

last year for his birthday.

Really cut down on the snoring.

You can take this room.

Get dressed.

Honey.

[music]

[Text Tone]

[Text Tone]

[Text Tone]

Wait until you get to know them.

Did I get the itinerary?

[music]

How's your wine, doctor?

Oh, please, Mrs.

Connolly. Just call me Brad.

I will if you call me Carolyn.

She never asked me to call her

Carolyn.

The food is amazing. I

didn't realize I was this

hungry.

I just love a man

that can clean his plate.

Isn't he precious.

He can hear you.

You know, Brad, our Erin was

such a

picky eater when she was a

little girl.

You know, she refused

to eat anything red.

Must we, really?

She wouldn't touch red food.

No cherries,

no strawberries, no beets.

No ketchup.

She would even pick out the

red M&Ms and

give them to Sadie.

It was the strangest thing.

And that time that they had the

spaghetti

dinner at the elementary

school with all that tomato

sauce.

Okay, I'm pretty sure that

Brad doesn't

want to hear about my

elementary school spaghetti

dinner.

I want to know everything

about you.

Aww.

Okay, who wants more wine?

Okay, the name of the

game is Couples Quiz.

Okay, we team up to guess our

partners

answers to random

questions generated by the app.

Why don't we just ask

you and Andy questions?

You're the ones about to be

newlyweds?

No, sissy, the whole point is

to play in

teams. That's what makes it fun.

You aren't afraid of a little

competition

are you, Erin darling?

No, of course not. Sounds fun.

Nan, you ask questions

since you're the referee.

Okay, grab your boards.

Alright, I want a good, clean

game. I

don't want to hand out any red

cards.

Alright, question number one.

Okay, who is the most stubborn?

Eyes on the white board, blue

team.

Thirty seconds.

Okay, time. Red team, what do

you have?

Alright.

Flip it, flip it.

One point for the red

team. Okay, blue team. Well.

He's got you picked, Erin.

Alright,

question number two. This

one is for the gentleman.

What was the first gift

that your partner gave to you?

Alright, let's get going.

Okay, time. Red team,

show me the first gift.

Nachos?

That was the first

thing you bought for me.

Nachos aren't a gift, babe.

They were really good nachos.

Okay, blue team, this is your

opportunity to steal the game.

Two for two.

Okay, question number three.

This is also for the gents.

What do you love the

most about your partner?

I know this one.

Oh, one second.

Guys, I am so sorry. I

should probably take this.

It might be about the project.

No fair.

One minute. Hi, this is Jack.

Right? This is Jack, isn't it?

Did you

change your number or something?

Okay, right along. Next up,

charades.

This is Sadie's favorite game.

So you guys know how to play,

correct?

Okay, it's girls versus

boys wedding theme charades.

Basically, the answers on

these are

anything that you can find at a

wedding,

you know, like groom,

bride, champagne, etc.

I'm just going to let you guys

play and

I'm just going to watch.

This is going to be fun.

Hey Sadie, after charades,

Brad and I

might need to sneak away

and get some work done.

Don't be silly. You're on

vacation.

Work on our secret present for

you two.

Yes.

You do not have to give us

anything,

Brad. Your presence is the

present.

Okay, unless you insist.

- We do.

- We do.

Okay, let's break off into

teams.

Game plan.

Okay, so you are always better

at acting

out. I really think that you

should go

first and I'll guess.

My buddy Topher let me know

that he wasn't

going to be making it to the

wedding.

Oh, man. I'm sorry to hear

that.

Some best man, huh? Anyways, I

was

wondering, you think maybe I can

run my

vows by you at some point?

Sadie says you do a lot of

speaking at

like these big doctor

conferences and

stuff and I could really use

some help

from a professional.

For sure, man. Anytime.

Thanks. I'm so nervous. I

could barely

eat at lunch. All I had was one

burger,

half a Sadie's tuna melt and I

couldn't

even finish my steak fries.

Hey, Andy. You got this. Just

remember.

Everyone in this room,

they already love you.

Two peas in a pod.

Brad gets along with everyone.

He's crazy about you.

What a beautiful day.

Okay. Five words.

Hair, happy.

Bride.

Bride and groom, bride tux.

Bride and groom, swirly.

The cake. The cake. The cake.

The bride and the carrying the

cake.

Carrying the tux. Tuxedo.

Tall, small, top. Bride and

groom topper.

Bride and groom cake topper.

Yes! Yes yes yes

Okay, my turn.

- Not too shabby, huh?

- You're going down.

Hey, who's that?

Hey, strangers.

You got room for one more?

This is Davis. Don't mind him.

Pete Sacks.

Brad.

What are you doing here, Pete?

I snapped this place up a few

years ago

before the housing market

turned into a total nightmare.

When I saw Sadie Connolly on the

registry, I nearly

spit out my green juice.

How are you, kid?

All grown up and ready

to tie the knot, huh?

Nan, you wanted a tea, right?

I'll go grab it.

So

Where you from, Ben?

It's Brad.

You look so familiar. You work

in the

wild world of tech, too.

He's a pediatrician.

Huh.

Well, leave it to Ernie

to bring home a doctor.

Oh, I bet Nan is thrilled.

Ernie?

Oh, yeah. Well, one time they

spelled

Erin's name wrong on the Dean's

list.

It was hilarious. I've been

calling her Ernie ever since.

We go way back.

Hat's funny. She never

mentioned you.

[Text Tone]

Oh.

Oh, excuse me.

Business.

Mi mansion es su mansion.

As they say.

This is Pete.

Hey.

Yeah.

We can do this another time if

you want.

Not really. We have a

deadline.

Right, but you're upset.

So, it'll probably be more

efficient, you

know, in the long run

if we talk about it.

I have a history with Pete

Sacks.

We met in college.

He wasn't like he is now.

He was funny and ambitious and

brilliant.

And I was in love with him.

And I thought he was in love

with me, too.

Until our senior year when he

dumped me

and he took my name off of the

thesis

that we wrote together.

Did you say something?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, the Academic Committee

didn't

believe that I was capable of

the data

sets that I claimed were mine.

But they were mine and they

still are.

And it took me a whole extra

year to graduate.

I mean, that was a whole extra

year of

borrowing money from Nan for

tuition.

I'm... I'm sorry, Erin. That's

terrible.

Oh, I wish it ended there.

After I graduated, he went to

every

single job I interviewed for

and spread rumors about me.

Saying that my work was sloppy,

that I was bad under pressure.

And now he's Pete

Sacks, billionaire and CEO.

And I am the resident deck chair

at RBI.

Come on.

I know Cole told you

he's really good at that.

I didn't believe him.

I can't imagine anyone would

after seeing what you can do.

That's why I work so hard.

And even then, I still get

passed up for promotions.

And no matter where I want to

go, Pete's

gone ahead of me and

turned everyone against me.

Not everyone.

Come on, let's take a break.

Let's go.

Ice cream in this place?

What a gentleman. Thank you.

You're welcome.

Brad, honey, would you

get me a glass of water?

And no ice. They make me chew

that at the

hospital and it drives me out of

my mind.

Water. No ice. You got it.

Erin, honey, would you want

anything?

Maybe a snack. I think

there's a fruit tray in the

fridge.

[MUSIC]

First, we want to say thank

you for

everyone agreeing to serve on

our

decorating committee.

Spring Bride magazine says the

key to a

perfect floral arrangement is

the

thriller, the spiller, and the

filler.

Yeah, now I know what that

means, but

just for Erin's

sake, you better explain.

The thriller is the accent

flower. The

spiller is something that droops

over and

the filler takes up

whatever room is left in the

vase.

Thriller, spiller, filler.

That actually

makes a lot of sense.

[MUSIC]

Brad! Brad! Brad, hurry!

What's wrong? What's wrong?

She's dizzy. I think she feels

faint.

Is she diabetic?

Carolyn, Carolyn, let

me see your hands.

Can you squeeze them both?

Okay, good. Let's try this.

Cold water might help.

How's that feel?

Heavenly. Heavenly.

Hey, hey.

She's okay.

Breathe.

I still think we should take her

in and

get checked out just to be safe.

No fussing.

It's not a fuss.

Can you get Andy to take me back

to my

room and make me a pot of tea?

Okay.

Got her?

Hey, hey. She's okay. Okay,

breathe.

One more.

It's alright, come here.

[MUSIC]

How did you do that?

What?

I almost forgot you

weren't Dr. Brad back there.

Where'd that bedside manor come

from?

My dad, actually.

Your Dad's a doctor?

No, he was a mechanic

that smoked two packs a day.

Was?

He died about 18 months ago

now.

I'm really sorry. I didn't

know.

The hospice nurse taught me

the trick

with the wet rag.

It's the chemo used to make him

woozy.

So the cancer project,

that's...

It's for him.

Hey, let's not talk about

cancer.

I'd love that, actually.

Can we keep walking for a bit?

Sure.

Don't look now, but my

sister Sadie's spying on us.

Hey, should we put on a show?

What?

There we go. There we go.

It's enough.

Okay.

She's gonna love this.

Oh!

Oh!

You have a thing with running

into me.

Maybe you're just always in my

way.

I'm gonna dip you now.

What?

Ah!

You can't cheat off me,

that's not how this works.

I'm not cheating. I'm

admiring.

Okay. Well, do it quietly.

Is that a double equals tattoo?

Oh, yeah. Kind of nerdy.

Sort of regret the placement,

but not

enough to have it removed.

Hmm. Never noticed it before.

You have any tattoos?

No. My grandmother hates them.

Plus, I could never really think

of

anything I wanted to advertise

on my skin

for the next 80 years, you know?

You plan on living to be 112.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay, weirdo. I'm gonna go take

a quick

two-minute bathroom break.

Need anything?

No. No. I'm good.

Oh, wait. You're getting a video

call.

Taylor?

Oh, that's fine. You can

answer. I'll be right back.

Oh, hey.

Oh.

I'm Taylor. I've heard so

much about you from Jack.

I mean, Brad. Sorry. I

don't want to blow your cover.

He told you about that?

Yeah. He tells me everything.

I feel like that's the only way

we could

live together and

work together, you know?

Live together?

Right.

Anyway, I know you two are

working hard.

I just wanted to see his face.

Make sure

he's holding up okay.

Well, um, he'll be right

back if you, if you, um...

I'll give you guys some time to

talk.

Oh, please. We have the rest

of our lives

to talk. I'll try him tonight.

But hey,

keep up the good work, okay?

Will do.

Oh, and I just wanted to say,

I hope you

don't think of Jackie as one of

those

work hard, play hard

tech morons or anything.

I, I, I don't think that.

He's the sweetest, most

amazing person. I

don't know where I'd be without

him.

There she is.

Well, look who the cat dragged

in.

Tay. Oh my God. I wish you

were here.

You've got to see this house. It

is the

most insane thing I've ever been

in.

I can see. Plus, I googled the

address

you sent me.

It's huge.

- It's huge.

- Jinx.

- Jinx.

Double Jinx, you owe me a soda.

Don't worry. I won't hold you to

it. So

have you been able to get a

run in since you've been there?

Yeah, I wish you were here

though. You've

got to see this place. I mean,

it could

sleep maybe a hundred people at

least.

There's a basketball...

You are not allowed to cry

right now.

You never asked him

if he had a girlfriend.

You asked him to be your

boyfriend, your

fake boyfriend for the next

three days,

and he's doing it, and it's

going great.

This weekend is not even about

you.

It's about Sadie and Andy and

Nan.

You have been through

way worse than this.

And one thing about you is you

fail big,

but you always learn from your

mistakes.

And you will never fall in real

love with

your fake boyfriend ever again.

Thanks for that beautiful

dinner, Carolyn.

How are you feeling, by the

way?

Right as rain, Dr. Brad. Thanks

to you.

Oh, I didn't do much.

Don't be silly.

I made you a tea.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Where'd you go?

I just needed a break. That's

all.

I just realized that was our

last meal as unmarried, babe.

Yep. Now if I could just make

it through

our vows without hurling from

nerves.

There you are.

So I got on some good news. So I

spoke to

Taylor, and she's got a meeting

with the

investor set for the 14th.

So I can't believe it, but I

think we

actually might pull this off.

You never told me

that Taylor was a woman.

I didn't think to.

What's your relationship to

her?

It's complicated, but she

knows about the

whole big dating thing. She

would never

say anything. She knows it's

sensitive.

Yeah, it's fine. Just

forget I said anything.

It's late. I should probably go

inside.

Yeah, yeah. Probably a good

idea. It's a big day tomorrow.

Yeah.

Honestly, I can't wait to get

out of

here. Get back to my real life.

Erin, is something wrong?

Thank you for everything. I

think you

really had everyone convinced.

Goodnight, Jack.

[Music]

The bride requests your

presence in the honeymoon suite.

It begins.

Sadie, from the moment that I

saw the

back of your head in math class

sophomore

year, I knew that you were

somebody that

I wanted to get to know.

Is that dumb? Saying it

out loud, it sounds bad.

It's great.

I want to hear where

you're going with this.

Do you have another curling

iron? This

dumb thing is not getting hot.

Plugging it in might help.

I haven't been this nervous

since.

Nope, this is officially the

most nervous I have ever been.

Honey, it's okay. Okay?

I'm so glad you're here.

Of course I'm here.

I'm always here for you.

And Brad, he has been such an

angel.

How can we ever make it up to

you guys?

This is your day, baby sister.

I don't want you to worry about

anything,

except for the beautiful, happy

life

that's waiting for you at the

end of that aisle.

Okay, I'm ready.

How do I look?

Sadie.

You like it?

It's perfect.

I thought about wearing mom's

dress, but

when I saw this one,

I knew it was the one.

Plus, mom's is more your style

anyway,

and I think that she would want

you to

wear it for your wedding.

I'm going to get changed.

Okay.

Okay, I can't cry.

You look ready.

I am.

Give me a few minutes.

Hey, Brad.

Yeah?

Will you be my best man?

Sure. I'm honored.

We're so lucky to be in love,

man.

Do you ever think about that?

People go their entire lives

searching

for that one person that can

make them

feel like they can flip a car,

you know?

I just feel so lucky that

Sadie's let me stand in her

glow.

Even if it was just for

a day, I'd be grateful.

Love rocks so hard, man.

It really does.

All right, I'll wait a few

minutes.

Excuse me. Can I top you guys

off?

Sure.

[Glass Clinks]

Welcome, everyone. It's so

good to see

all of your lovely, lovely

faces.

You may take your seat now if

you'd like.

Looking good, looking ready.

[Music]

[music]

Welcome, everybody.

Bring my clothes upstairs.

I'll be in one

of the East bedrooms.

And Davis. Try to blend in.

I don't want anyone

knowing I'm here until I'm

ready.

I knew I'd want to follow the

back of

that head wherever life leads

us.

I'll always be behind you as

your biggest

fan, and your proudest

supporter, and your best friend.

Besides Erin.

I promise to love you forever.

Thank you for letting me be a

part of your family.

I wish I could have met your mom

and dad.

By the power vested in me, I now

pronounce you man and

wife. You may kiss the bride.

[music]

[applause]

[music]

Hey, Ernie.

I don't have anything to say

to you.

I know. I don't deserve your

respect, and

I know that you don't want me

here, but I

had to come back to tell

you I am so sorry, Erin,

for ending our relationship the

way that

I did and everything that came

after.

I was stupid, and ambitious, and

jealous

of you, of anyone you

get to work with, and...

and anyone who would

fall in love with you.

When I left yesterday, I met

with the

president of the college.

They're issuing

you an apology and

crediting you for everything.

I know I have a lot of work to

do on

myself, but what kind of man

would I be

if I couldn't face you

and tell you how sorry I am?

Is that it?

No.

It isn't. Seeing you again after

all this

time and your family.

You make me miss the guy I used

to be.

It's always about you, isn't

it?

Did you give Sadie a discount on

this

place because of me?

I did. Yeah, but that

wasn't...

I'll go.

Please, tell your boyfriend. I'm

sorry. He

probably thinks I'm a conceited

moron.

He's not my boyfriend.

Who is he, then?

It's complicated.

I'll let you get back

to the celebration, but...

Call me.

And when we get back to the

city, I would

love a chance to make it up to

you.

If a date is too much to ask,

then maybe

you could settle for a tech

job with any company you want.

I have a job, Pete.

[Music]

That's a very interesting

tattoo you have there. Bradley.

Oh, don't judge me too

harshly. I got this when I was

It's not new ink, then?

Well, the only reason I ask is

because

it's not in any of the pictures

my

granddaughter sent to me.

Of her and her

Dr. Brad?

The pediatrician?

I...

You better go ask my

granddaughter to dance now.

I think that's a good idea.

Thank you.

Would you like to dance?

Yeah, we should. Nan's

watching.

[Music]

I missed you at dinner.

Yeah, I... got a little

overwhelmed. I needed a break.

I understand.

You look... beautiful.

Thank you.

So do you.

Good thing you brought options.

[Knocking]

Jack?

[Music]

Erin, I hope I was

convincing as the perfect

boyfriend.

But more than that, I hope you

know

you'll never need one

to be the most

impressive person in any room.

Jack.

[Music]

Where's Erin?

Uh, I don't know. Maybe she

slept in. I'll go get her.

Oh, there you are, sleepyhead.

Where's Brad?

Uh...

[Music]

There is no Brad.

I... I have something to tell

you guys.

Let it out, honey.

I'm not the perfect sister,

Sadie.

And I'm not the perfect

granddaughter.

And I am not the perfect...

I'm not the perfect woman in

STEM.

And...

I am not dating a

handsome pediatrician named

Brad.

I made him up.

Because being enough on

my own seemed impossible.

But loving someone is

accepting them for who they are.

You know, you... you asked,

"Who's gonna

take care of me when you're

gone?"

And it's the same person who

took care of

us when our parents died.

When my reputation... was

ruined.

When I got knocked down again

and again

and I always got back up.

It's me.

I am the most impressive

person in any room I am in.

And I'll never be lonely

as long as I have you guys.

Come here, my child.

I love you just the way you are.

You are a wonderful

granddaughter.

And sister.

And sister-in-law.

And just don't think

that can't be enough.

And a bag of chips.

And have a man around

the house do the dishes.

I'll keep that in mind.

I promise.

Give me another hug.

I got it, babe.

Oh, okay.

I love you, wife!

I love you, husband.

[music]

All right, Erin. It's another

beautiful

day in tech bro-topia.

Time to get in there and

break that glass ceiling.

Oh, Erin.

Can I have a couple minutes,

please?

Sure.

Please.

I owe you an apology.

Erin, you're an excellent

programmer,

and I know you must have felt

overlooked

when I brought Jack

on as senior developer.

Truth be told, my master

plan was for you two to team up.

And once I got Jack up and

running, my

plan was to promote you

as head of division.

But...

You haven't heard?

Heard what?

Jack Hudson decided not to

join us.

It's something about a great

opportunity

in the cancer research space.

So what do you say?

Huh?

Head of division?

Yeah, I would be honored.

Great.

You know, it's a pity, though.

You and Jack would

have made a great team.

Yeah.

[Music]

Erin Connolly!

Taylor, hi. What...

It's good to meet you in person.

Hey, congrats on head of

division.

How did you know about that?

I just found out.

Oh, I'm seeing this guy

that works at your office.

You know how it is.

Word gets around.

Jack.

Jack?

My step-brother?

No.

Step-brother?

Well, technically

he's my ex-step-brother.

My mom was married to his

dad before he passed away.

It's complicated.

But hey, I know this

is none of my business,

but you should really

consider giving him a shot.

A real shot this time.

As himself, he has been in love

with you

since your commencement speech,

and he's had it pretty bad since

he got

back from the mansion.

Just moping around, listening to

hours

and hours of white noise.

It's hard to watch.

I...

I gotta talk to him.

Oh, well, he leaves his phone

at the

apartment when he goes for long

runs.

What? Why would you do that?

What if there's an emergency?

He usually runs at parks

nearby.

I'm sure he's around here

somewhere.

Okay.

I will just chill here

and watch your stuff then.

No problem.

Jack!

Jack!

This is like the Titanic.

Jack!

Okay.

You're a smart girl, Erin.

Where is a park?

Jack!

Hello, Jack Hudson.

This is Erin Connolly.

Sorry, it's taking me

so long to call you back.

I...

I really hope you check your

voice mails.

Unlike me.

Anyway, I just wanted to call

you to tell

you that I'm currently drenched

in sweat,

running through the neighborhood

trying

to find you to tell you

something.

I don't know if it's the

endorphins, but

I'm just gonna rip the band aid

off.

I...

Jack.

Have you been running?

Is there a bear?

No, I just...

I've been looking for you.

Is everything okay?

Is it Carolyn?

No, no, no, everyone's fine.

Yeah.

I just...

I wanted to tell you something.

I am so in love with you.

But even if I do live to be 112

years

old, it still wouldn't be enough

time.

And I know I have a lot

of goals for my career.

And when I reach those goals,

and I will reach those goals,

you're the one I want to

celebrate with.

Not Brad, the perfect

pediatrician.

You.

You...

You weren't kidding. These

endorphins are incredible.

I'm on a roll.

I hate to interrupt

while you're on your roll.

Can I just say one thing?

Yeah.

I love you too.

Double equals.

You and me.

I'm really sweaty.

Oh, yeah, well, in that case,

no.
