-♪ Breathe in the light ♪

♪ Breathe in… ♪

Okay.

Water the plants.

[pings]

Done.

Take out the trash.

-[phone pings]
-Done.

And…

Bring in the mail.

Done.

Anything else I can help you with
while Richard's away?

♪ Breathe it all in… ♪

I could think of something.

[phone chimes]

Hey. Hey.

Ignore it.

[phone chimes]

Cole. [chuckles]

[Cole] Uh-huh?

[phone chimes]

It might be Richard.

And if it is?

No, no, no. No, no, no, no, no.

What? What is it?

I was supposed to plan something
for Grace's birthday tomorrow

and I… totally forgot.

You forgot?

[scoffs] I promised her
I would be a better friend.

Well, I'm sure it's fine.

-Come here.
-I have to go.

Right now?

Yes.

I have things to do right now.

[Skylar] You forgot Grace's birthday?

I know. I said that I'd plan something.

I just… I've been so distracted by school

and lobbying the city council
to approve the teen center

and then getting ready for
that Chamber of Commerce dinner, and--

And by Cole.

[dog barks]

[chuckles] I get it.

It's hard to keep it together
the first time you're in love.

You lose yourself,
which must be weird for you.

It's actually amazing.

Oh my gosh, you've had sex!

-You did it?!
-Oh! Sh! Sh!

I knew it. Was it incredible?

You don't have to tell me,
but if you want to give me the headlines?

Skylar, can we focus on Grace?

Mm.

I think we should postpone.

We only have 24 hours,
so whatever we do is gonna be lame.

No, I'm not gonna disappoint Grace.

All right, but I think Grace
is expecting type-A Jackie

to plan something for her birthday.

Not distracted-because
she's-having-sex Jackie.

I will figure something out.

Trust me.

[gentle, uplifting music playing]

[Dylan] Hey! I thought you'd forgotten.

Sorry. Had to help Jackie with some stuff.

No Kiley today?

Nah, she's with her grandma.

Yesterday, working. Day before, studying.

I mean, you know, we're cool.
She's just… busy all the time.

All right.

[grunts]

At least when Jackie's not around,
you got other stuff going on, right? Like…

Like the garage.

And that race.

[chuckles]

Man, watching you do that
was such a blast.

-Are you gonna try to do it again?
-Think so.

Well, I have got lots of time on my hands
if you need an extra guy in your pit crew.

I'm, uh… I'm actually going to check out
a barn find tomorrow.

Count me in.

What's a barn find?

It's an old car with lots of potential.
You buy 'em, fix 'em up,

turn 'em into winners.

So you wanna buy your own race car, huh?

I gotta find one first.

Don't get too excited.

-Okay. Let's go.
-[rock music playing]

Where am I going? Uh-oh.

Here all day, baby.

All day.

[chuckles]

[rock music continues]

[Wylder] Nice ride today, Walter.

-[music fades]
-Thanks.

Any pointers?

Don't be paranoid.

You're fine.

In fact, you've never ridden better.

That's why we think
it's time you met Betsy.

-[chuckles] Betsy?
-Yeah, Betsy.

[Alex] Uh, that's… [chuckles]

Betsy's a… What is that, a tattoo g*n?

Yep. She gave everyone here
a little Hartford kiss.

You're one of us, Walter.
Time to roll up a sleeve.

Uh… [chuckles]

I… I'm honored, but I…

I don't think tattoos are really my thing.

Relax, Walter.
You ride thousand-pound animals for fun.

Cut him some slack, Reid.

Reid cried like a baby
when he got his tattoo.

[Reid chuckles] That is absolutely true.

That's why I highly recommend
a little pre-pain medicine.

Thanks, Reid.

I think I'm gonna pass on the tattoo,
if that's okay.

-Ah.
-[somber music playing]

-He thinks he's too good for us.
-No, no, no, no, no.

Nothing like that.

If Walter doesn't want it,
he doesn't want it.

It's fine.

The most important thing is that he rides
well in the qualifying here tomorrow.

We all have to do that. Right?

-Yeah.
-[Reid] Yeah, man. Sure.

You know what?

Hey, if you change your mind, let me know.

Betsy's always by my side.

[horse nickers]

It's all good, Walter.
We'll see you tomorrow.

See ya.

[Danny sighs]

What is it?

Uh, you're… you're really quiet.

Anything on your mind?

No.

You're really quiet too.
Is anything on your mind?

No.

You sure?

Yeah.

[sighs]

Danny, what?

Don't get mad.

I'm not mad. I'm irritated.

You clearly wanna tell me something,
but instead you're being weird.

No, I'm not.

[rock music playing outside]

[vehicle approaching]

[brakes squeal]

[Erin] Who is that?

I'm not sure.

[upbeat music playing]

[Danny] No way.

That's my Aunt Hannah.

[dog barking]

[sighs]

[door opens]

I don't believe it!

Hannah!

[Hannah and George chuckle]

[George] Aw! Come here.

-Hey, big brother. How are you?
-[George] Aw.

Hi. What a surprise.

Hi, Katherine.

Oh my gosh. Boys! [chuckles]

Wow! [chuckles]

Whoa! Hey.

[clears throat]

Lee.

Hi.

Wow.

Oh! [chuckles]

You're so tall.

All right. Well, hey,
why don't we all go inside, huh?

-Come on.
-[Hannah] Yeah.

[George] Hey. Let's go.

[Hannah chuckles]

[Hannah] What have you been eating?
Look at this guy.

-[George] Everything.
-[Hannah chuckles]

You okay?

Did you know… she was coming?

No, I didn't have a clue. Nobody did.

It's been three years.

Why is she even here?

Do you wanna maybe go in and find out?

Sure.

And this music box is from New Orleans.

-Thank you.
-Yeah.

[George] Oh, that's pretty.

Very cool.

-Wait, listen to it.
-[music box tune playing]

Oh, nice.

[Benny] Wow. Very cool.

And for you guys,

these… are from Keokuk Park.

They've got
these, like, amazing geode beds.

-Very cool.
-Geode beds.

[Isaac] Go ahead.

It seems like I got more presents here,
but there are not enough Walters.

Oh, the older kids are gonna be
coming home later.

Oh, well, that's fine, then.

There's plenty of time for me
to catch up with them too.

Well, how long
are you gonna stay this time?

I guess…

I mean, I guess as long
as Silver Falls will have me.

Like, are you moving back?

I mean, that's the plan.

And if it's okay, I'd love to stay here
just until I get my own place.

-Yeah. Of course.
-Yeah, we'll make up a bed.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

I can stay in my van, you know?
It's got, like, all the comforts of home.

Hey, Katherine, uh,
where are the party supply boxes?

You know, the stuff left over
from Will's… wedding?

Jackie, this is Hannah,
Lee and Isaac's mom, and this is Jackie.

Hi.

-Hi. It's so nice to meet you.
-You too. I've got this--

Sorry, I've got a hard deadline.
Um… party boxes?

Uh, they are in the upstairs closet.

-They're in the big bins. Look low.
-Great. Oh, it's good to meet you.

-Yes!
-Yeah, I know what you said.

Wow.

She's like… like very New York.

Hey.

Hey.

What are you doing?

Trying not to go down in history as,
like, the worst best friend ever.

I was supposed to plan something
for Grace's birthday, and I forgot.

So now I'm trying
to pull something together for tomorrow.

With Christmas lights?

These are market lights, Alex.

I stand corrected.

Don't you have that…
big rodeo thing tomorrow?

Yeah. Hartford's hosting
the qualifier for the county circuit.

Is everything okay?

The guys wanted me to get a tattoo.

Oh.

-Yeah.
-[tender music playing]

And I have nothing against tattoos,
and I want to fit in with them, but I…

Do you… want one?

[chuckles] You know what?
It's fine. It's all good.

I don't even know
why I'm worried about it.

[chuckles]

Have fun with your market lights.

Thanks.

[Katherine] I wish she'd just come inside.

You just have to leave her be.

What if she gets the boys' hopes up
and then she just takes off again?

I know.

You remember Christmas three years ago
when she planned to make those ornaments

with Isaac and Lee.

Oh yeah, I remember.

The looks on their faces when
she sent them to the store for supplies?

And then when they came back,
she's just gone.

No explanation.

And now she's back. With what? Geodes?

[George] I know.

Listen, Katherine,
what Hannah did was clearly wrong.

But?

[poignant music playing]

She just doesn't…

navigate life like the rest of us.

-I know.
-All right?

She's a free spirit, but she means well.
She has a good heart.

And that's… that's not an excuse,

because my parents had no idea
what to do with her.

But what they did do

is make sure that she knew
that no matter what happened,

she could always come home.

And after this stroke thing, I… [sighs]

I just appreciate every second
I have with the people I love.

I know.

And I know you love your sister,

but I can't just stand by and watch
Isaac and Lee get abandoned again.

Oh no. Of course not. And I agree 100%.
I will be talking with her about this.

[sighs] Okay.

-Thanks.
-Mm-hmm.

[cow moos]

[man] Oh, hey, guys.

Mr. Vaylem, I, uh, called about the car.

I know who you are.

You're Cole Walter,
and you're Dylan Newsome.

I used to watch you guys play football.
The car's over here.

All right.

Here it is.

[sighs] It's not running, but, uh…

but she's got good bones.

How much are you asking for?

$800.

[chuckles] $800 for this thing?

Yeah.

Wow. That's a bit steep.

Come on.

Uh, could you give us a second?

Yeah, sure.

What?

Okay, I have to get this car.

This piece of junk?

That is a 1981 Z28 Camaro,


What does that even mean?

It means play it cool.

[laid-back rock music playing]

Mr. Vaylem,

would you take $300 for it?

Son, I can get $600 for scrap alone.

How about… $350?

[sighs]

You know, Cole, maybe we should, uh,

head back
to the other guy with the Pontiac.

Right.

Yeah, no, the Pontiac.

-It was a pretty nice car.
-$350 for it was a steal, right?

Guys, I can't take
under $500 for this, okay?

[Dylan] $400.

The other one doesn't have
chickens living in the back seat.

[Mr. Vaylem chuckles]

Uh, I don't know.

$450.

-Final offer.
-[Mr. Vaylem sighs]

Oh, all right. Deal.

[music fades]

[Skylar and Jackie]
♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday, dear Grace ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

Aw, thanks, guys. [chuckles]

Make a wish.

[sighs]

[Jackie clapping]

-[Grace laughs]
-Happy birthday, Grace.

Mmm.

Um…

Here.

Oh!

-Open it.
-Aw, thanks.

Oh!

Oh, it's a Jane Austen collection.

Old romances for my 17th birthday.

All your favorites are in there.

-Yeah.
-Don't you like it?

Yeah. Yeah, I do. I do.

It's really… it's really thoughtful.

And… and so were the cupcakes
and the balloons. I mean, yeah.

I… I don't know, I guess I just…
I thought when we talked about

doing something for my birthday,
it would be more…

Fun?

Yeah… [chuckles] You know, kind of.

I guess with everything that's going…

Is she okay?

[sighs] Grace, I'm such a terrible friend.

This is not what I wanted to do
at all for your birthday.

-At all.
-Jackie, it's fine.

I mean, at least
you didn't completely forget.

My parents have been so wrapped up
in their own separation stuff,

they totally forgot all of our traditions

and just got me,
like, a card this morning,

which was really cute, but you know…

Please, let me make this up to you.

If you could have anything
for your birthday,

what would it be?

-Anything?
-You name it.

Oh! Okay!

Open your mind.

This is gonna be interesting.

[chuckles] Okay.
How about we put "the Cole effect,"

or better yet,
"the Jackie-and-Cole effect" to good use,

and we throw me a birthday party tonight?

[squeals] Ah!

Charcuterie and rosé
meets kegs and beer pong?

Exactly! Okay. There would be, um…
there'd be drinks and a big cake

and people, lots of popular people, okay?

And music,
like in the movie Sixteen Candles,

because I never really had
a sweet 16 birthday,

so I wanna have my Sixteen Candles moment
on my 17th birthday.

Love it. Anything else?

Hold on, this is for tonight?

Yeah, I've got plenty of time.

Grace, you are gonna have
the best birthday party ever.

[Grace chuckles]

Um, just gonna let Cole know
what's going on, and I'll be right back.

-Let's go!
-[squeals] So excited!

Aside from the body work, this one's
gonna be all about increasing the airflow

and maximizing the suspension.

No idea what you just said,
but it sounds cool.

[Cole scoffs]

Do you want help fixing it up?

Yeah. Sure.

Cool.

-[phone buzzing]
-[Cole] Oh.

One sec.

Hey, Jackie, what's up?

-I need your help with something.
-Yeah? I'm all yours.

Great. [sighs]

Grace's birthday brunch was a total bust,
so we have to throw her a party tonight.

But first we need to figure out
where to have it. Any ideas?

Yeah, how… how about Richard's place?
He's in Denver all weekend, right?

Yeah, but he's renting that house.

I don't know if he'd be okay
with having a party there.

He'll never know, Jackie.
I've done this before.

I've thrown parties at my house
my parents still don't know about.

It'll be fine.

Yeah.

W… uh, well, we only have
a couple of hours,

so we'll need to divide and conquer.

I'm sending you a shopping list,
and can you make sure to invite, like,

everybody that you know?

I really want Grace to feel special
and have the time of her life.

I got you.

Thank you.

All right, bye.

All right, looks like fixing
the car up's gonna have to wait.

We need to do some serious shopping.

Shopping? [chuckles] For what?

Well, Jackie needs our help
to throw Grace a birthday party tonight.

And it's gotta be big.
A lot of people, a lot of booze.

You know I'm in for that. Come on.

Yeah, just remind me who Grace is again.

-I'll catch you up in the car.
-A lot of people. Just trying to keep up.

Wow.

We lost pretty much everything
in that fire.

Oh, but look what survived.

[Hannah chuckles]

There's generations
of our family right there.

-No way.
-[George] Oh, there's you.

[Hannah chuckles]

And Isaac and… Lee.

Lee.

He is not so sure about me being here.

Can you blame him?

[Hannah inhales deeply]

And to be honest, he's not the only one.

Katherine and I are worried.

We need to know
you're gonna stick around this time.

[gasps]

You rebuilt the loft!

-[chuckles]
-Of course.

Do you know
that I used to hide up there… for hours,

and I would just… I would dream
about all the places that I wanted to see

and…

It seemed impossible until I met Mike.

[gentle music playing]

Do Lee and Isaac, do they…
I mean, do they see him?

Uh… FaceTime on birthdays and holidays.

And even that depends
on where he's deployed.

I mean, you know…

when I met him,

you know, he was like this…

this, like, musician,
and he wanted to travel the world with me.

Then I got pregnant,
and we ran out of money,

so he… joined up,

and the next thing I know,
I am stuck on a military base

with two kids.

And George, I…

I just, I… [sighs]

I felt so… like, so trapped.

I mean, you know me. I…

These are two kids' hearts
on the line, Hans.

You left them.

We still don't know why.

There were a lot of reasons why.

But I know you are… you are right.

And I'm gonna talk to them.

And Katherine.

[chuckles softly] Good.

[country music playing]

[announcer] Holding stone-cold
on that ride.

[horn blares]

[announcer] As he holds on,
that's gonna be another great score.

[cheering]

[announcer] And that puts Wylder Holt
at the top of the leaderboard with an 82!

[cheering]

[Alex] Nice ride.

What horse did you draw?

Mayday.

She's known to be
a little droppy, unpredictable.

Keep your legs up and your toes out.

Thanks.

[announcer] And next up,
we have Alex Walter.

[suspenseful music playing]

[horse grunting]

[man] Ready?

[horse neighs]

[rock music playing]

[cheering and applause]

Whoo!

[announcer] He's done it! Alex Walter
holding on for the full eight seconds!

[neighs]

[cheering]

[announcer] Alex Walter comes in
with an 85.

That's the highest score so far!

Let's give him a hand,
ladies and gentlemen!

[cheering]

[Wylder] Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo!

-[Cole] Yeah.
-[Dylan] Yeah.

-Grace.
-Thank you.

Eight… eight o'clock tonight. Yes.

-And tell the rest of varsity too.
-Yes, dude, bring everybody.

It's gonna be such a rager.
It's gonna be awesome. Okay. [chuckles]

-All right. Bye.
-Grace is super cool, for sure.

Okay.

Wait, no, thi… this isn't right.

TJ's grandpa has
a stash of hard cider if you want it.

Dude. Oh my God.

Oh.

"Happy 7th birthday, Gracie."

Oh my God.

No, don't worry about it.
No one at the party will care.

Jackie will.

Then just draw a one with your finger
and move some icing around.

-[scoffs]
-Just like…

No! No! No!

It has to be perfect.

Okay, but I gotta tell you as a friend,

we're getting into
a pretty weird area here.

You're stressing over
a pink birthday cake.

Okay. What's Coach Allen always say?

Anything worth doing…

-Is worth doing 100%. Exactly.
-Is worth doing 100%.

Okay.

Okay, but after this
we're getting booze, right?

[door closes]

Yeah.

[Katherine] Wow. Look at this.

-What are you making?
-I am making pineapple upside-down cake.

I learned how to use canned pineapple

from this, like, really cool chef
in Santa Fe, so…

Cool.

Do you want some help?

Oh, no, no, it's okay. I'm almost done.
Just gotta pop this in the oven…

and apparently do a big cleanup. Sorry.

George said you wanted to talk.

Yeah. Uh, yeah.

Let's talk.

Um…

Okay, look, Hannah,
I want to be supportive,

but I have no idea what your plan is.

I don't know
if you'll be here in the morning.

Right. Yeah.

Now you're getting the boys' hopes up,
which really makes me worry,

especially for Lee.

He's sensitive.

[sighs]

Sounds like someone I know.

Yeah, well, he's definitely your kid.

In sweet, wonderful ways.

[sighs]

-I want to show you something.
-Okay.

Lee made this for you.

I found it in the trash
after you left the first time.

[chuckles]

[laughs]

Oh, look at that. Hey, buddy.

[somber music playing]

I've been so mad at you, Hannah.

But something told me
I needed to save that.

Because even if Lee didn't believe
you were ever gonna come back, I had to.

I had to hold the hope for him.

I'm sorry you had to do that.

Comes with the job.

And I want that job.

[sniffles]

I do. I…

I just…

What?

I left my boys, Katherine.

When Mike and I split up, I…

I was a single mom, and I had no money.

And… I di…

I felt like I couldn't…
I couldn't take care of them.

[inhales sharply]

[sighs]

Such a selfish thing to do.

And when I realized that, I…

You know, I started…
I started to work on myself,

and I… I got my butt into yoga classes,

and I meditated. And Christ, I even did
this retreat at a wellness center.

It was like one of those silent ones.

So I just walked around
in silence for a month.

Me. I mean, it was…

It was awful.

[laughs]

I get it.
We're all a work in progress, right?

But I need to know if you really want
to be there for your boys.

Do you think you can actually do it?

I know…
that I need to earn their love back.

All I want is a chance.

Please.

[music fades]

Nathan's making the playlist,

bringing his DJ stuff,
and Skylar's picking up Grace.

We got the cake, Dylan's getting ice,

and… I think we'll have plenty of alcohol.

[chuckles]

I really want Grace to have a good time.

But what if something gets damaged?

That's why I'm taking pictures.

It's like
our own personal insurance policy.

After the party,
we put everything back where it belongs,

and Richard will never know.

Well, make sure you get a picture of that.

It's a very expensive table.

Oh.

All right.

Have you talked to Alex lately?

I texted him about the party,
but I haven't heard back.

I think he was still at his rodeo thing.

Why?

I mean, it's not a big deal,

but I think those Hartford guys
are putting a lot of pressure on him.

Well, if it makes you feel any better,
I can… I can text him again.

-[dreamy music playing]
-Yeah. Thanks.

Now, let's throw Grace a party.

Say cheese.

[camera clicks]

-[music fades]
-Perfect.

[horse whinnies]

[indistinct chatter]

Hey.

I want to celebrate.

Let's find some buckle bunnies.
Let's hit the Lazy X.

-That's a dive, even for you, Reid.
-We cannot sit here.

I need to do something fun.

Uh, there's a party
tonight up at Sal's Hollow.

We could… we could check it out.

Let's check it out. It sounds promising.

Don't see how that's better
than a dive bar.

Free booze.

Yeah.

-All right, Mr. High Score, let's do it.
-Yeah!

[Reid laughs]

Whoo! Let's party!

[dance music playing]

Hey.

Thank you.

Guys, make sure you wish Grace
a happy birthday.

-[boy] Sure.
-Thanks.

-For you.
-Got ya.

-Happy birthday.
-Oh, thank you. [chuckles]

[gasps] I want a piece.

-[Jackie] Cake?
-No.

-Yes.
-Grace! Great party!

Oh! Mm-hmm.

Yeah, happy birthday!

Thanks! You guys are really sweet.

Bye!

Bye!

[laughs]

Did Ruby and Olivia just wish me
a happy birthday?

-Yeah.
-[boy 2] Happy birthday.

Oh, thanks.

Is that okay?
That's what you wanted, right?

-I just want you to be happy.
-Yeah! No, it's great!

I mean, they'll forget
they ever talked to me. [chuckles]

It's good. You did great.

[both chuckle]

I mean, I can't take all the credit.
Cole, Skylar, and Dylan helped too.

Dylan Newsome helped plan
my birthday party?

Mm-hmm.

I have arrived.

Happy birthday, Grace.

A keg, for you.

-Thank you!
-Oh my God.

[laughs]

What a gentleman.

Wow. Hey, wait,
can I get your opinion on this?

[Grace] Mmm.

Hey, you.

Thanks for making Grace feel so special.

Yeah. Wait, so you love that one?

Oh.

Happy to help.

-[Hannah] Canned pineapple.
-[Katherine] I can't believe it.

-It's so good!
-[laughs]

My third piece.

-This cake is delicious, Hannah.
-See?

Yeah, it's really good.

I'm really glad you like it.

Oh, sh**t, we gotta go.

Where are you going?

Oh, Isaac and I can't stay.
There's a party we have to go to.

-Yeah.
-What party are we talking about?

It's a birthday thing for Jackie's friend.
Cole told us to show up, so…

Well, it's just a party. It sounds like
maybe you guys could miss this one?

-Oh, you know, it's okay. If they--
-No, you just got here.

We gotta catch your mom up on everything
going on in your lives.

And I think Cole will understand.

Right?

Sure.

Yeah, we can stay.

Yay! It's just, I… Do you want some more?

-Oh, sure. Yeah. Yeah.
-Um…

I would just love to hear, you know,
everything that you guys have been up to.

Well, you've heard
a little bit about Isaac and his football,

but did you know
that Lee is an amazing skateboarder?

[Hannah] What?

[Katherine] Yeah.

You wanna tell your mom
about the new skate park?

Uh… yeah, sure.
Um… there's a quarter pipe,

which is awesome.

I don't know how to drop in,
but… um, almost.

I'm not the best, but… I can kickflip.

-Right on!
-[Lee] I'm trying.

[dance music playing]

♪ Now I'm feeling so fly like a G6 ♪

♪ Like a G6, like a G6… ♪

Have fun! Love you, guys!

-Yay! [laughs]
-Yay! [laughs]

-Oh.
-Oh, I'm sorry.

[Jackie] Having fun?

Yeah!

Hi!

That's TJ's cousin from Lockwood High.
He's on the football team.

Mm-hmm.

[sighs] You know, I gotta tell you.

When you and Cole got together,
I was kinda worried at first.

But actually, I think

it's the greatest thing
that ever happened to me. [laughs]

It's probably pretty great for you too.

[both chuckle]

Yeah, it is.

Aw!

We're gonna remember this
for the rest of our lives!

Hey, yeah, it's called a "barn find."

You turn them into race cars by maximizing
the suspension, stuff like that.

Pretty cool, yeah.

You should see this guy on a racetrack.

but I reckon we could take
state finals this year.

[slow dance song playing]

Hey, Reid.

[Reid] Yeah?

Did you, uh,

bring Betsy with you?

Always.

You sure, Walter?

Damn straight, I'm sure.

What's been bothering you so much?

[Danny chuckles]

The other day, I found out

I didn't get into Juilliard.

What?

[laughs] Yeah.

Oh no.

You didn't tell me.

I know. I'm s… I'm sorry.

I just… I don't know.
I didn't want you to think I was a loser.

I would never think that.

I love you, and I believe in you.

You seriously mean that?

Yes, you're so talented, Danny.

Juilliard, it's their bad
for not taking you.

Acting… is your passion.
It's your future. You're going to do it.

You're going to have
an amazing life, Danny Walter.

How did I get so lucky
to have a girlfriend like you?

[chuckles]

It's not luck. It's talent.

[chuckles]

But Juilliard or not,

we're gonna have a great future together.

Forever.

You really think so?

Yeah.

Well, then why don't we get married?

[Erin laughs]

-You're so silly.
-No, I'm serious. Let's get married.

"I love you with so much of my heart
that none is left to protest."

Why shouldn't we?

-Yeah. I mean, yeah, let's… let's do it.
-Yeah. Let's do it.

[Erin laughs]

Mmm.

-Whoa. Sorry.
-[Erin] Whoa.

-Okay. Let's go.

[sighs]

[somber music playing]

I'm sorry, Jackie.

All right, this is all my fault.

No, this was my idea.
It's my responsibility.

Hopefully, Uncle Richard won't be too mad
once I tell him.

Besides, Grace was so happy,

so… I don't know, it was kinda worth it.
