01x08 - Rock, Paper, Scissors

[bunniefuu]

- [muffled scream]
- [g*nshots]

[screaming getting louder]

[tense music playing]

[Nicky exhales]

- [whispers] Nicky.
- What?

[quietly] Everyone's dead.

I know that.

Well, why didn't they k*ll us?

[whispers] I don't care. We've got to go.

But it could mean something.
We should call someone.

- Like who? The police?
- Uh…

"Hi, this crazy thing happened
at the hotel that we're at,

and we're the only ones left alive."

"By the way, don't you dare ask
a single follow-up question"?

- What the f*ck?
- Okay, I'm sorry.

I had one reactive thought
to witnessing a m*ssacre. I'm sorry.

We have to go. We have to start moving.

Watch where you're stepping!
There is blood everywhere!

[Morgan] I am. I am.

[exhales loudly]

[frenetic music playing]

[Nicky gasps]

You should go home.

Okay.

Nicky, Nicky, I don't think those guys
work at the hotel.

No sh*t, Morgan.

[opening theme music playing]

[music ends]

[Linda] I don't understand
what's taking so long.

They should've called with
the election results half an hour ago.

Clearly, it wasn't a landslide,

which frankly, says more
about the people of this town

than it does our campaign.

You know, Susan Gopnik stopped me
in the grocery store

to say that she voted for me.
I could tell that she was lying.

Her mother was arrested for shoplifting
when we were in high school.

- Woman is a sociopath.
- [blender whirring]

Natalie!

- [yells] Natalie!
- [whirring stops]

Did you call me?

Honey, blender's a little loud.
I can't hear myself think.

- Copy-copy.
- What are you two so quiet about?

[Morgan inhales]

Oh, should we be talking about something
while we wait?

I'm nervous… for you.

Well, that's hardly a useful way
to spend your time.

You go down to Miami,
the both of you, on a church retreat,

come back looking like fresh death.

- That's kind of you, Ma.
- [blender whirring]

- [Linda] Natalie! Honey!
- [whirring stops]

I'm begging you, if you love me,

you will make that smoothie
any other time but now!

[breathes deeply]

- [Natalie] Here you are.
- Thank you, hon.

- Yeah.
- Mmm. Mm-mm-mm.

[inhales]

[Linda] So I just want to tell you all
how much these past couple of months

have meant to me.

Natalie, you have steered me
through this election

with a poise and a maturity
well beyond your years. [inhales]

And watching the two of you,

uh, find your way back to each other.

[inhales] I just want to say,
no matter what happens today,

this family will always be
my guiding light.

- [Morgan] Mm.
- [phone ringing]

[Linda exhales]

It's an unlisted number.

Answer it!

[inhales] Linda Morelli.

Mm-hmm.

Okay. Okay.

Right.

I understand. Thank you.

[chuckles]

What?

Hm.

[exhales deeply]

[Natalie] We lost, didn't we?

We tied.

Tied?

- Well…
- What?

No, now, don't second-guess yourself.
We did everything that we could.

Okay. Mm-hmm.
So, n-- now what? What do we do?

Well, according to the council,
it comes down to a game of chance.

- [crying] No! Mom! Oh my God!
- Honey. Natalie. Natalie.

Stop.

What, it's like, being decided
by drawing straws?

- [shrieking] Mom! No! No!
- Honey.

[Natalie inhales]
Oh my God, this is insane!

[softly] Three days
checking the news, nothing.

Whole room of people gets k*lled,
nobody's talking about it.

Well, it's clearly been covered up.

I'm well aware of that, okay?

But I have a very bad feeling
that they're coming for us.

We were forced into this, you know?

Two upstanding citizens going missing
is probably not worth the hassle for them.

- Yeah.
- You know, if they wanted us dead,

they had their chance. They let us go.

That is what I'm choosing
to believe, okay?

What's the alternative?

They k*ll us some other time.

That's an upper.
That's a good-- That's good. [exhales]

It's over. We tied.

How is that possible?

Susan f*cking Gopnik, that's how.

[bell tolling]

[door squeaking open]

[door slams shut]

[footsteps approaching]

- Hi.
- Hi.

I hope I'm not interrupting
your flow with God.

I think he's thrilled that I'm leaving,
to be honest.

So it's official?

[smacks lips] Uh, yeah.
It was a joint decision.

- Wow. [exhales]
- It's nice to see you.

Yeah. [inhales deeply]

[inhales] I think…

- [Tareq] Can I go first?
- Uh-huh.

I owe you a thank-you.

I don't know who those kids were,

but they managed
to get most of the money back.

Sorry, what kids?

[inhales] Those hacker kids
in your Sunday school who found Tegan.

- [inhales] Oh. That's right. The hackers…
- The Hackers for Christ or whatever.

Yeah, I don't want to know
how they did it, but…

- [chuckles]
- They restored my faith in Gen Alpha.

[Tareq breathes deeply]

[smacks lips] Happy to help.
[inhales deeply]

Yeah, you helped, despite me blaming you,
which you shouldn't have had to do.

[Nicky] Hmm.

I would really like a fresh start.

Everything out in the open.

No more hiding.

[vehicle passing by]

[inhales] There's something
that I want to tell you.

Of course.

I'm here.

You can tell me anything.

[Nicky] Mm.

Let's go for a walk.

Yeah?

- Okay. Yeah.
- Okay.

[Tareq inhales]

[cart rattling]

Are we going to party?
Three handles of whiskey?

If we wanted this much,
we should've gone to Costco.

Okay, I didn't say anything when you put
Lucky Charms and juice boxes in.

Feels like I'm shopping
with a six-year-old.

My juice boxes are for after my workouts,
and you also eat Lucky Charms.

God, you've been such,
like, a grumpy old witch lately.

Oh, no, don't worry, I got it.
I got these.

- [door slams]
- [keys jangling]

[phone ringing]

[tense music playing]

[ringing continues]

- [ringing stops]
- [music ends]

[exhales]

[frenetic music playing]

[engine starts, revs]

- [loud thud]
- [Max screams]

- [brakes squeal]
- f*ck, Max!

- [Max groans]
- [mouths] f*ck.

Morgan!

Morgan!

Oh my God, oh my God. f*ck.

- I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
- You f*cking ran me over!

I know. It was a mistake.
Okay, do you need an ambulance?

No, I'm fine.

- I'm stuck, okay? Just pull me out.
- Give me your hands. Come on.

- Pull. Pull.
- Ah, give it a little kick.

- Okay. [grunts]
- Pull. [grunts]

- Ow. f*ck. Ow, ow, ow.
- Oh my God. Okay.

- There's, like, an undercarriage on me.
- The carriage is on you?

- Yeah, it's on my femur muscle.
- f*ck. Okay.

- Okay, I'm going to ask someone for help.
- No, Morgan, f*ck!

- What?
- This is really f*cking embarrassing.

Oh my God.

Oh my God. People are getting out
of their f*cking cars!

- Okay, hey. Gu-- guys, he is okay.
- Tell them to go away.

Please go away.

I'm so f*cking mad at you,
it's giving me a headache.

- Seriously? You're filming?
- [Max straining]

He said it was hiding in plain sight.

He left the key in the lock.

I don't know. I don't run
an ill*gal import-export business.

And that led to a room of people
being m*rder*d?

No, that led to us getting involved.
I think the… the murders

had more to do with the hundreds
of thousands of dollars' worth of cocaine

that were being illegally imported
in a cow's testicles.

- Okay, do you hear yourself right now?
- Yeah, of course I hear myself.

Okay, what now then?
Are people out there looking for you?

- [birds calling]
- [dog barking]

I don't know. I don't--

- I don't-- I don't think so.
- You don't think so?

Well, that feels like
a pretty important thing to know,

considering I'm standing
right beside you, Nick.

- I'm sleeping at your house.
- You told me to open up to you.

And… and to tell you the truth.
That's what I've done. This is the truth.

Well, of course I wanted the truth.

I just wasn't necessarily expecting
to hear that my boyfriend

was at the center of a mass m*rder.

God. I did it for us.

How does this have anything to do with us?

How do you think you got your money back?

The Hackers for Christ.

- Okay.
- There are no Hackers for Christ.

Of course there aren't
any "Hackers for Christ."

I had to do a favor
in exchange for a favor.

Are you seriously putting
the m*rder of 15 people on me?

Are you seriously thinking

that I'm putting
the m*rder of 15 people on you?

- Do I look like I know what to think?
- [mobile phone buzzing]

Take it. I'll keep walking.

[buzzing continues]

[sighs deeply]

- I can't really talk right now.
- Did your flip phone ring?

What? Uh, I don't know.

I haven't looked at it since Miami.

Because mine did.

Wh… How?

- I don't know. I didn't pick up.
- [Nicky] Well, don't!

Throw it in the f*cking ocean.
I don't care. Just get rid of it.

[woman over PA] Dr. Flores…

[Nicky] What is that? Where are you?

Urgent care.

Why? Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.

I ran over Max by accident. [exhales]

[Morgan exhales deeply over the phone]

[insects chirping]

What even is that?

- Rock, paper, scissors?
- Yes.

It-- it's that stupid hand game

Nicky and Morgan used to play to decide
who didn't have to take out the trash.

Well, you want to know
who feels like trash now?

This grown woman who's reduced
to playing a children's game

with that local slime bucket.

Well, you know, at least it's better
than whatever Tom suggested.

Chess isn't even a game of chance.
It's fully strategic.

And misogynistic.

Name a woman who has time for chess.

Natalie, this whole thing
is just so humiliating.

- Ugh! I know. I'm pissed off too.
- [Linda scoffs]

But I think we owe it to ourselves
to show people that

unlike Tom, this isn't just about power.

No, it is about power, Natalie.

It's always about power
when you've never had any. [inhales]

When I was your age,
I was working in the shop.

Not because I wanted to,

but because it was
just what everybody did. [inhales]

I didn't have the luxury
of going to grad school

or trying bangs like you, hon. [inhales]

And then I fell in love with your father,
and that was a wonderful thing

until we wanted kids,

and I found out
that I couldn't have any on my own.

So we adopted your brother
and loved him so much,

and then all of a sudden,
I was pregnant with Morgan.

A miracle, everybody said.

And then eight years later,
you came along, another little miracle.

But the truth is, honey,
you two weren't planned.

You were gifts from God,
so how could I not keep you?

But you weren't planned.

And I love you to death, honey,
but you weren't planned. [inhales]

- You were a mistake.
- Right, ye-- yeah.

And so even when my body
eventually gave me everything I wanted,

it wasn't on my terms.

And your father and I
were not in a good enough place. [inhales]

We got divorced,
and even that wasn't what I wanted.

So when I knew that the day would come
when your nonna would be gone,

and there wasn't anybody else
I needed to take care of,

I just thought, well, why not

reach for a little power…

[Natalie sighs]

…before you kids have to wipe my a*s
in some hospital room?

[exhales]

[Linda gulps]

Well,

then let's prep you to win
that stupid game.

[Linda breathing deeply]

[both laughing]

[door squeaks]

[insects chirping]

- [door slams shut]
- [keys clatter]

[window slams shut]

[exhales]

Hello?

If there is anybody here,
I'm not gonna scream. I'm not gonna run.

It's just not who I am, okay?
So let's just get it over with.

[floorboards creaking]

[exhales]

[exhales]

[drawer opens, closes]

[flip phone shutting]

[loud thud]

[exhales deeply]

[exhales]

- [bag rustles]
- [Nicky gasps]

[heartbeat pounding]

[tense music playing]

[Nicky] I'm telling you,
I will go wherever you want.

I'm just asking that you say it nicely.

- [Morgan] Nicky, Nicky!
- [Nicky] Morgan?!

- [Nicky] What the f*ck is going on?
- [Morgan] I don't know.

- What's going on?
- [Morgan] You tell me. I can't see!

- [Nicky] I also can't see.
- [Morgan] Are we gonna die?

- [Nicky] Uh…
- [Morgan] Help! Someone help!

- [Nicky] Fire!
- [Morgan] Help!

- [Nicky] Fire!
- [Morgan] Why are you yelling "fire"?

[Nicky] I read an article that said
people respond better to "fire"

because "help"
doesn't directly pertain to them.

- It's selfish.
- [Morgan] Fine! Fine, fine, fine!

- [Nicky] Fire!
- [Morgan] Fire! Fire! Fire!

- [Nicky] Fire!
- [Yusuf] Will you both shut the f*ck up?!

[music ends]

- [Morgan] Yusuf?
- [Nicky] Oh my God.

- [Morgan] Are you f*cking kidding me?!
- [Nicky] Oh my God.

This is how I hear from you
after you f*cking disappear?

[Nicky exhales]

I tried calling, but you didn't answer,
so this is your f*cking fault, okay?

Oh my God.

[Nicky] Okay, I knew it.

- I knew you two hooked up.
- [groans]

- That's f*cking gross. That's gross.
- Okay.

If you would have answered my call,
I would have said thank you.

Why? Why would you have said thank you?

I took my power back. I got a promotion.

Hm. Who did you get a promotion from?
'Cause Ivan's dead.

What the f*ck are you two talking about?

Ivan had no power, okay?
I went to his boss.

Who's his f*cking boss?

The Italians.

Until he tried to f*ck them over,

so I told them
what the f*ck was happening in Miami.

Ivan was working for the Mob?

You almost had us f*cking k*lled!

How did I do that?

- How?
- Oh my God.

You being a little tattletale
resulted in a literal m*ssacre, okay?

The Italians k*lled, like, 15 people.
You're a f*cking tattletale!

[Morgan] Mm-hmm.

I'm not a f*cking tattletale.

Yeah, you are.
You're a little tattletale snitch, okay?

- And a m*rder*r.
- I'm not a f*cking snitch.

- Yes, you are.
- What are you talking about?

- They said just Ivan and Andrei.
- Well, they f*cking lied to you, okay?

Because I watched a cartel member
get a b*llet in the eye.

Do you know what that sounds like?

They shot up the whole room, Yusuf.
Wake up!

[quietly] What the f*ck.

[door opens]

[man 1] Both of them here?

[door closes]

[Yusuf] Yeah, they're here.

[tense music playing]

[man 2] Yusuf, you gonna introduce us?

Yeah, that's Nicky and Morgan.

[man 2] That's the intro?

Not gonna lie. Needs some work.

[music ends]

[chair scraping]

- We have a question about Miami.
- [Nicky exhales]

We didn't, um…

- We didn't do anything wrong.
- [man 2] You didn't do anything wrong?

You helped broker a deal
for 100 kilos of coke. [laughs]

[man 3] Hm.

We had eyes on that stupid Russian f*ck's
entire Miami circus from start to finish.

[inhales] Except for a five-minute period
in the bathroom

with the son of the leader
of the Brazilian cartel.

And you.

[Morgan] Nicky. Nicky?

- What are they talking about?
- I… I… I don't know. It was nothing.

He was having a personal crisis.

What crisis required a private audience?

I know it sounds suspicious, okay?

But it has nothing to do with the cartel.

[spluttering] I am a pastor, okay?

He was coming to me
for sp-- spiritual help.

[tense music resumes]

[g*n c*ck]

What am I supposed to do with this?

[man 3] Point it
at this well-respected pastor,

and if he doesn't answer our questions
to our satisfaction,

by the time we count from ten, sh**t him.

[Morgan] Wait, no, okay.

- Can we just talk about this?
- Ten.

[Nicky whimpers]

[man 1] What did
you and Filipe speak about?

His life. It was… it was personal.
It had nothing to do with his family.

- Nine.
- Will he be taking over for his father?

- I don't know. We didn't talk about that.
- Seven.

I would tell you if any of this had
anything to do with you or his father

or any of this.

I… I swear to God.

- I am a pastor swearing to God.
- Is he telling the truth?

- Are you telling the truth?
- [man 2] Five.

Why would I not be
telling the truth, Morgan?!

- [man 2] Four. Three.
- What the f*ck?!

Either put a b*llet in my head
or believe me.

- But I… I don't know what else to say.
- [man 2] One.

[whimpers]

[music continues]

- f*ck it, sh**t him.
- [screams]

Are you serious?

sh**t him.

[Nicky crying, whimpering]

Guys, I can't.

- No, no, no, no, no!
- [Nicky screams]

- [g*n clicks]
- [music ends]

[man 2 and man 3 chuckling]

Okay, I believe you.

Although if it was up to us, we'd have
loaded the f*cking g*n just for fun.

[man 2 and man 3 laughing]

[Nicky breathes heavily]

I… I'm going on a cruise for six months
with my boyfriend, okay?

You won't-- won't have to
worry about me. [inhales]

I don't think our boss
would be too thrilled to know

that there's some liability out there
cartwheeling onto a cruise ship

with a stranger for the next six months.

You didn't mention any of this
to your little boyfriend…

Tareq.

Tareq, before you booked that cruise,
did you?

I hope you're telling the truth.
Because if you're not,

we'll find you.

We always do.

[footsteps fading]

You'll be hearing from us
sooner than you'd like.

[door creaks open]

[footsteps receding]

[door creaks, slams shut]

[breathes sharply]

[cutter clicking]

Thank you for not sh**ting my brother.

Are you f*cking kidding me?

He literally kidnapped us,
tied us up, held a g*n to my head,

and set up a room full of people
to be slaughtered.

- Okay! Okay! I thought it was nice.
- What is wrong with you?

- I thought it was nice.
- Is this your relationship with men?

- Stop! Are you f*cking--
- Constantly letting them off the hook?

- They're all on the hook!
- This makes a lot of sense, Morgan.

It makes sense. You're on the hook.
You're on the hook.

I'm not on the hook.
Shut your g*dd*mn mouth!

Untie me now!

Don't.

[birds chirping]

[knocking on door]

[door opens]

[Nicky] Hi.

[door squeaks]

Nick, you've put me
in an impossible situation here.

I know that. I… I know.

I'm… I'm sorry.

What do we do?

- I don't know.
- [Tareq sighs]

Nick, we're so f*cking close.
In a month and a half,

there's a cruise that can take us
out for six months. We'll be--

I can't go on that cruise.

What are you talking about?

[smacks lips] I was abducted last night,
and I cannot go on the cruise.

- What?
- I know the guy. It wasn't his fault.

Okay, Nick, I'm sorry. I can't do this.

- I'm sorry, uh--
- You shouldn't have to do this.

There's nothing to do.
There is… nothing to do anymore.

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I… I think
you should still go on the cruise.

I'm not going on the cruise without you.
That's f*cking cruel.

It's not cruel. You were planning on going
with or without me.

I… I think you should still go.

You think I should go on the cruise?

Or you're telling me to go on the cruise?

[smacks lips]

I am telling you

that I think you should go on the cruise.

Nicky, what have you done?

I mean, the f*cked-up thing is

I… I… I d-- I don't know exactly
what I've done. [laughs]

I'd argue I haven't done much.

Well, you've lied, Nick.

And the scary part is
it seems to come so easy to you.

[whispers] I'm sorry.

Yeah, me too.

[footsteps receding]

[door opens]

[door slams shut]

[inhales]

[clears throat]

- [slow music playing]
- [chair scraping]

[Linda] Rock, paper, scissors. Win!

Rock, paper, scissors. Yeah!

Rock, paper, scissors. Win!

Morgan, you've thrown rock
five times in a row.

- Yeah. [inhales]
- You're not even trying.

Rock, paper, scissors. Wi--

You know what? This is ridiculous.
I don't want to do this with that man.

This is all about tricking people.
I have no interest in that.

- That's kind of the point of the game.
- [Linda exhales]

It always helps to consider
your opponent's perspective, Mrs. Morelli.

Thank you for that, Kevin.

- [Natalie] Mm, Kevin?
- Yes, honey bear?

I got it. Yeah, over there. Back away.

[Annette] You know,
the great thing about flowers

is they work if you win,
and they work if you lose.

Annette, bless you.
Thank you so much for coming. Aw.

- How are you holding up?
- I'm okay, I'm okay. [laughs]

- Morgan.
- Hello.

[door opens]

- [Annette] We just have to wait…
- Oh, look.

- [Linda] Is Tom ready?
- Actually, no, he's not.

I just got off the phone
with Mr. Donaldson,

who informed me he has decided to concede.

[Natalie screams]

With Tom's concession,

the electoral board hereby declares
Linda Morelli our new mayor.

- [Linda crying]
- [Natalie cheering]

[people applauding]

- I'm the…
- [Morgan] Guys!

- [laughing]
- [cheering]

[Natalie laughing] Oh my God!

Congratulations!

Linda, see, the best person always wins.

- [inhales] Oh my God.
- How about a drink? Or six?

Or six. [laughing]

Honey!

[Natalie laughing]

Oh my God. [laughing]

[Linda continues laughing]

["Wheel of Fortune" by Kay Starr playing]

♪ The wheel of fortune ♪

[laughing]

[people cheering, applauding]

[Nicky] Hey.

- [Mike laughs] Congratulations, Linda.
- Oh, thank you.

- I didn't expect to see you here. [laughs]
- Wouldn't miss it.

- [Nicky breathes deeply]
- [Linda laughs]

- Everything okay?
- Yeah, I'm just happy for you.

Oh, that's really kind of you, honey.

You know, Natalie might appreciate
a hug like that as well.

- [Natalie] Mm. Uh… Yeah.
- [Nicky] Okay.

- Are we close like that? I can't tell.
- Well, let's just get it. Okay.

[Natalie grunts]

Oh, what's that? Oh.

[music continues]

[people speaking indistinctly]

The doctor said
you didn't have to wear that all day.

Yeah, Morgan.
I'm trying to get back in the gym,

and the doctors don't have whiplash, so…

[Morgan exhales]

Jesus. Next church retreat
should be an AA meeting.

- Oh, my one and only child.
- [Max chuckles]

Is that really necessary?

- Yes.
- Okay.

- How are you feeling?
- Better.

It only really hurts,
like, when I move my neck.

[Annette] Aw. Look at the two of you.

If you can get through
running over your partner,

well, you can get through almost anything.

- Am I right?
- [chuckles] Cheers to that, yeah.

You know, when Max was a baby,

his father forgot him in his carrier
on the roof of the car.

Drove halfway down the block
before he realized it.

- [Max chuckles]
- Oh my God.

We miss your daddy every day.

- Don't we, baby?
- Yeah, we do.

[inhales] Hey, can I grab you
for a minute?

I have a little something upstairs
I need your help with.

- Yeah.
- Of course, yeah.

- Oh, sorry. Thank you.
- Yeah.

[upbeat music playing]

[slurps]

[Annette] Hm.

Wow.

I can't believe
I've never been in here before.

Neither can I.

I'm so proud of your mother.

Ah, all that hard work.

And I am very happy
that we're going to be in-laws.

Yeah, I'm so happy. [clears throat]

Look. [inhales]

I know that you're not in love
with my son anymore. [inhales]

The problem is,
he's very much in love with you.

And I just wanted you to know that
if you had any thoughts about leaving him,

that won't be happening.

Excuse me?

I am telling you

that you will be marrying my son.

[tense music playing]

[exhales]

[people chattering indistinctly]

[music continues]

- [keys beeping]
- [Annette humming]

[lock clicking]

Oh, you know, I forgot to ask you,
how was your church trip?

I heard it didn't go as planned.

You know, Max would be devastated
if anything should happen to you.

One might go so far as to say that,

well, your engagement to my son

is the only reason
you made it back home at all.

[rapid ticking]

- What the f*ck are you doing here?
- Lower your f*cking voice.

I don't know what you want from us,
but now is not the time, okay?

Please, leave my family out of this.

[ticking ends]

We were invited, you f*cking idiot.

[music ends]

[suspenseful music playing]

Open it.

[Morgan exhales]

- [Morgan breathes deeply]
- Yeah.

I heard you had to jump through hoops

to get that thing back to me,
and I thought… [gasps]

"What a perfect engagement gift."
Am I right?

[necklace clinks]

[smacks lips] Yeah.

[music ends]

Welcome to the family.

[funky music playing]

I'll take that.

[man exhales]

[older man in Italian] Salute.

Oh, right there.

[music continues]

- Too tight?
- [gasps]

- Yeah, a little bit.
- Oh…

[whispers] You'll get used to it.

There.

I thought you worked in real estate.

Mm, I do.

Among other things, obviously.

Mm. Aw.

Look at that.

[music ends]

Oh. Keep it safe.

Don't want it ending up in another grave.

[inhales] Okay.

And if you run over my son again,

then I will f*cking k*ll you myself.

Shall we?

[door opens]

Big smiles, everyone.

- [guests laughing]
- [retro music playing]

- Morgan.
- I need to talk to you.

The Italians are here.

Um, that makes a lot of sense,
because Annette is their boss.

What are you talking about?

Ivan and Andrei work for the Italians.
The Italians work for Annette.

It was for her.

It has all been for her.

[glass clinking]

[Annette] Everybody!

[glass clinking]

- Our mayor, Linda Morelli!
- [Linda exclaims, laughs]

[people applauding]

Everybody, thank you. It's amazing
where life can take you. [laughs]

[people laughing]

Now, I know that only half
of the people in the town voted for me,

but trust me when I say that I will work
to make this whole town proud.

[all cheering, applauding]

Um, I want to thank my daughter, Natalie,

who's been by my side
throughout everything,

and Nicky and Morgan
for doing all that you do,

and a very special thank-you
to Annette Zofrea

for making tonight's event possible.

Annette, you are a lifesaver.

She is my good luck charm,

and I cannot wait for our families
to come together officially very soon.

[laughs]

[people applauding]

[big band music playing]

[glasses clinking]

I think we're in hell.
I… I think this is hell.

[Morgan exhales heavily]

- Hey, babe.
- Hey.

- [Natalie laughing]
- [Linda laughing loudly]

Um, I need, uh, two triple vodka sodas.
What do you want?

I don't want anything.
Morgan, what are we gonna do?

[whispers] I forgot to vote.

Too much on my plate. Forgot to vote.

My mommy almost lost because of me.

Okay, well, she didn't, okay?
So everything's fine.

Just go party with Kev. Whatever.

Kev. [inhales]

- Morgan.
- Mm-hmm.

- Natalie, can we have five minutes?
- [hisses]

Stop it, stop!

- You guys are always interrupting me.
- Oh my God.

Stop it. I am talking to my sister.

Morgan, do not f*cking do it.

Do what?

Marry Max, Morgan, don't.

- Excuse me?
- [gasps] Oh my God.

[whispers] Kevin is so f*cking boring,
he makes me want to die.

Natalie, I think you've had
a lot to drink, okay?

Die, die, die. Like, I go home
every night, and he is just there,

like, sitting at his computer
with his erectile dysfunction

and his familial enmeshment issues and…

- Jesus Christ, Natalie.
- I know, I know.

But there comes a point, Morgan,

when being in a situation
that you do not like

starts to hurt. [inhales]

[whispers] If I were you,

I would get the f*ck out
while you still can.

Excuse me.

Not to be overly sentimental,

but I do think this is a moment
that needs to be celebrated. Son?

[snaps fingers]

- Gio, photo?
- Yeah, sure.

Everyone, let's gather on the stairs.

Linda?
