01x08 - Speak Now or Forever Hold Your Peace

Post by bunniefuu »

I saw Valeria meet up
with Tucker Clark last night.

- You're gonna do great.
- You always do.

Sophie hasn't had
an easy time.

My sister Laura,
she's been dating somebody.

Now, they're talking marriage.

We've just closed
the initial deal

on a brand-new rodeo stadium
right here in Canyon.

Yeah, with Daniel Booker!

From everything I've heard
about your father, I don't think

- you're anything like him.
- When I got back here,

you were the only one
who didn't judge me.

I'd like to see you
again, if you're okay with that.

You don't like the fact that
Missy and I are getting close.

Nah, because you don't
deserve her.

I'll let her decide that.

Help!

Coming!

Careful, careful, careful!

This one is probably
like a million dollars.

I mean, it is a Booker
wedding after all.

And that's why we gotta peak!

Wait, but are
your hands clean?

I swear I have not touched
an animal today.

Okay, careful.

Okay.

Ooh...

That is definitely
French lace.

Since where are you
an expert in lace?

I'm gonna make some more coffee.
You want some?

- No! Not near the dress.
- Sorry.

You can just put it on the hook.

Hey, you remember
my wedding dress?

The bottom was just covered

in grass and dirt
because I kicked off my heels.

And your mom
almost had a stroke.

Are you okay?
I mean, I know it's the first
wedding here since--

- No, it's...
- It's a happy memory.

Maybe not so much
the part with my mom.

But you know, actually,
I am kind of nervous.

Well, yeah, of course. I mean,
it's "Meet the Parents".

I've met Gus's dad and
he's definitely intimidating.

I've met his mom over Zoom,
she's nice enough.

Well, I'm sure
they're gonna love you.

Are you gonna be
in the family photos?

I don't know.

We're not even
officially a thing yet.

Well, I mean, Gus did
invite you to a family wedding.

Yeah, only because it's
happening here at the ranch.

Well, Gus would've invited you
to be his plus-one anywhere.

Although I do love
that a seven-year-old
picked this as the venue.

Right?

You know, if we can
pull this off,

we could actually be
the number one wedding venue

in all of Colorado.
And then, I can stop worrying

about the fact that Frontier
won't call me back.

Hey, you are not
totally responsible

for the ranch's
financial problems.

That's on all of us.

I gotta go get dressed.

That looks great.

Well, thank you.

No, I meant...

I meant the drawing
of the stadium.

right. Um, well,
it's just a rendering

to try to attract investors.

- Want some coffee?
- Yes, ma'am.

Is that what they're gonna
call it? The McMurray Stadium?

Well, that is
my understanding.

I don't know.
This whole thing is just...

moving way too fast.

- You take it black, right?
- Yes, ma'am.

Yeah, let me ask you, um...

- Do you think it's weird...
- Thank you.

...naming a stadium
after yourself?

I mean, shouldn't it be more
of a community thing?

Well, now, it depends. Are you
proposing that they call it

"Cody Jackson's Stadium"?
'Cause I don't think

that's gonna go too well.

No.

no. I think that name's
a draw in rodeo.

And also, it's part of
the identity of our community.

Canyon, home of the great
McMurray bull riders.

Yeah.

Well, those centrepieces
are really coming along.

You could have a side hustle
as a florist.

Thank you, ma'am.

- I know my way around a dolly.
- Yeah.

Okay, careful,
careful, careful.

Okay, okay, okay...

Put this over this.

All right.

- Gonna zip it up.
- Yeah.

Behold!

you scared us!

Very tense in here.

Yeah, I almost
ripped a seam.

- speaking of rip...
- Actually, no,

they sawed it off, but hey!

Check it out!

Dude, you're like a bull
in a China shop.

- Stay over there.
- Well, speaking of bulls,

I'd really like
to ride one, coach.

Yes, you can do that.

But where is the champagne and
glasses I asked you to bring?

- Left them in the truck.
- I'll go get them.

hey, you you look nice.

You... You saw that, right?

for a few weeks now.

So is something
happening there?

No! No, no, no. We, we just...

- We laugh and we joke.
- And you flirt.

Okay, yeah, there...

there was this one time.

One time what?

- I don't know.
- an almost kiss?

It sounds so weird to even say,
"almost kiss".

Almost as weird as it is having
this conversation with you.

Why would it be weird
taking to me about it?

Well, I just...

I never really gave Cash
a second look

'cause I guess a part of me
always thought that

he was into you?

No, Val.

I'm his coach!

- And his sister-in-law.
- Hey, where do you want it?

you can just put it
over there--

Okay, okay, okay.

- Get it off!
- Clear the table!

- Okay, okay.
- Quick, quick, quick!

Come on, come on.
Up, up, up, up.

- Easy, easy, easy.
- Careful, careful. Careful.

okay, okay, okay.

- ...Okay, okay, okay!
- Club soda.

- Okay, let me look.
- Can we even use club soda?

- I'm looking. I'm looking.
- I don't know.

No. No club soda, no water,

and don't rub it, just dab,
because otherwise,

we're gonna spread the stain.
Vinegar! We can use vinegar!

Yeah.

- That's olive oil!
- Yep!

- This is bad.
- This is just so bad!

- You know it's, it's fine!
- Everything's fine.

You know, we could put together
this whole wedding

in a couple of weeks,
we can deal with a little stain.

Okay.

- They're early.
- They're what?

Gus says they're only
two minutes away.

How? Denver is like
three hours from here.

You said this was
gonna be fine!

- It is! It's fine.
- Everything's fine.

It's "Meet the Parents," right?
So, you just...

just strike them with
some chitchat and we got this.

- We?
- You're not going anywhere.

I need you. And this is like
a lifeline for the ranch.

- No, I gotta...
- I gotta practise.

Okay, look! I know
you're riding at Cheyenne,

and I know you wanna
get on the bull, but right now,

this is more important
because they're coming in

by helicopter
and that is French lace!

Okay. You run,
intercept them. Go on.

- Okay.
- Yup!-

Dude!

- Don't just sit there, come on!
- Okay!

Missy!

Hi! How was that?

Fun! Yeah? Nice helicopter!

Mom, Dad, this is the famous
Missy McMurray.

-Yeah, we met.
You were on a horse.

- Yes.
- Honey, I've spoken

with your girlfriend many times
on the computer.

Hi, Isabel McMurray. Pleasure!

- Nice to meet you.
- Thank you!

What do you think? Should
we get you a horse here?

Um, sorry about
the girlfriend thing.

I know you said we weren't
doing labels yet.

- I totally am fine with that.
- it's... it's okay.

- You sure?
- Yeah.

- Okay.
- Okay.

- We should probably...
- Okay.

Detergent.

Vinegar.

man. And all this stress

for a dress
that's gonna be worn once.

Yeah. But the pictures,
they last forever.

Like the one
in your mom's house.

You in a tux,
being all brooding

- at Missy and Austin's wedding.
- I wasn't brooding.

Hey, no, no! Don't rub it in!

- that...
- that's not good....

who makes a dress out of
fabric that dissolves?

Seems like an oversight.

they're coming this way.

Yeah, we gotta go now.

Okay, let's go!

After you.

Um, hey! There's Sunny.

That's Sophie's favourite horse.
.So beautiful.

I was a little worried
about shipping the dress.

But I'm glad to hear
it arrived okay.

Look at all these buckles!

You really did marry a cowboy.

Yes, well, he's won
so many awards over the years

that I've frankly lost track.

...You know, there is one
belt buckle here

that seems to be missing. I...

His win at Nationals in Vegas.

That was in '99, wasn't it?

You do know rodeo, wow!

Not at all. But when Dan
said he was thinking

about building a rodeo
stadium with the McMurrays,

I did my homework.

Very impressive.

We went to business
school together.

Still like to use
this brain of mine sometimes.

Well, we are very excited
to be going into business

with someone who has such
an amazing track record

celebrating my late
husband Dusty.

-And your son too, right?
Austin?

Well, I must admit I have
done my homework too.

And in regard to the name,

in full disclosure, I would like
to call it, "Booker Stadium."

And I have brought
some paperwork

if you wouldn't mind
signing. Thank you.

You're serious?

Given the size
of my investment,

I think that makes
perfect sense. Don't you?

- Grandpa, look at my picture!
- But the renderings,

- they all say McMurray Stadium.
- yes.

And we've been using them
to attract more investors

- at our office.
- But with our name.

I mean, Booker... Booker...
It's an oil company.

Yeah. Well,
we would like to

convey that we're more
than that these days.

I mean, don't worry,
we fully intend

to honour the legacy
of your family

and use all of your memorabilia.

This is really just
more about the naming rights.

But what does Hank say?

I wouldn't worry
about Hank.

He's a good businessman.

Well, what a nice-looking
ranch.

It's your ranch.

- This is top shelf!
- Right?

I've never had to lock up
liquor before.

- Gus. You're a guest.
- What?

Just the other day, he said
I was practically family.

Plus, you're actually
doing me a favour.

I need to keep busy.

It's not your wedding day.

No, it isn't.

Look at that car!

My dad has a guy
for everything.

Even in Canyon,
he's got a car guy.

Tucker?

Tuff!

Saw you on stage
the other night.

- Now, if you need any gear...
- No, I'm good.

Hey, you can give me the keys.

This is a 200,000-dollar
vehicle.

I hand the keys over
to Dan Booker or no one.

It's okay. I'm his son.

- Little Booker don't count.
- I'm sorry, who are you?

He's nobody.

Doesn't really matter,
does it?

I'll give you a couple of
seconds to hand me the keys.

Or you can take it back
and we'll find another car guy.

Okay, junior.

- I need it back by noon tomorrow.
- Great.

The buckle.

hey, Tuff.

How's your brother doing?

Looking forward
to seeing him step up.

What's up?

You good?

Yeah. Guys like that
just get under my skin.

I know what you mean.

Okay.

So, the stains are half an inch
on either side

and the tears are near the seam.

You know, in the Marines,
we hemmed our own pants.

- Well, I'm guessing
your uniforms were made
of Peau-de-soie.

Peau-de-what?

I need a sewing machine.

All right. don't know
how to operate that,

- but Mom has one.
- Okay. Yeah.

You stay here, um,
clear out this table,

get a drop cloth
and I will grab the machine.

Ma'am, yes, ma'am!

At ease.

So, the groom
will be here at four.

And hair and makeup will be here

in like an hour and a half?

All right.

- We can go wait inside.
- Okay.

It's kind of crazy to head back

into the bridal suite
as a bride.

You ever think about doing it
again? Marriage?

sorry. I shouldn't...

be asking you that.
You're dating my brother.

- no. No, it's fine.
- Don't worry about it.

It's okay if you haven't
thought about it.

I mean, a lot of people don't
get over their first love.

Not me.

- no, you know, it's not...
- really that.

I just wanna make sure that
I really know myself first.

Yeah, I don't really have
that kind of time.

I just want Sophie
to have stability

'cause I'm kind of
all over the place.

- And I'm...
- I'm sure you're in love.

Yeah.

I mean...

All my parents ever really
wanted was for me

to find a good guy and
I screwed up the first time,

so hopefully,
I get it right this time.

Where is the dress?

I think Val has it.

But I will just call her
and double-check.

- Why don't we wait on the porch?
- Okay.

- Just take a seat right there.
- I'll just give her a quick call.

Okay.

Val, hi.

It's Missy. I'm just calling
to see if you have the dress?

Great, half an hour?
I will let Laura know.

Well, she has your dress
and they're just airing it out.

- Okay. They?
- she.

Just, you know, keeping it away
from any lipsticks.

Okay. So...

Do you think
that I should go with

a more autumn colour or...

I mean, pink goes better
with my skin tone,

but it's kind of young.
But it...

If I choose the wrong
shade of red,

my mom is actually
gonna lose her mind.

Hey, Laura, are you okay?

Yeah.

Yeah, just... pre-wedding
jitters, I guess.

Right.

Hey. Do you wanna take
a trail ride?

- Like on a horse?
- Like on a horse.

They're very calming.

- Yeah, I could use calming.
- I thought so.

- You're sure it's the buckle?
- Yes.

I'd know it anywhere,
I've seen it a million times.

I just don't get why Tucker has
his hands on it.

Hey!

Tuff, do you know where
the sewing machine is?

Um, back at the house.

- Stairs, hall closet.
- Thanks.

I gotta go hem my dress.

- Hey. You guys almost done?
- Not really.

Sorry to make a fuss,

but the chairs need to be
33 inches apart.

I specified in an e-mail.

Sure.

Of course. Well,
the customer's always right.

Well, I may be the one
making adjustments,

but I think we all know
who the real customer is.

Yes, well, apparently,

it's Sophie who is
at this very moment

with Cody putting sparkles

- on the centrepieces.
- What?

Well, I think
she has warmed up

to the idea that her mom
is remarrying.

It's good.

Well, I actually meant Laura.

We're all so happy for her.

She's always going
from thing to thing,

looking for stability.

- Josh is just so good with her.
- And Sophie.

I apologize for Daniel.

He has trouble separating his
personal from his business life.

Thank you.

I just think what he's asking
is not really fair.

Although maybe
he isn't even asking.

I'm sorry, Isabel.

I, on the other hand, have
no problem separating the two.

That looks much better.

- Is that Laura's dress?
- What are you doing?

- Fixing it.
- Fixing?

In or out. Make up your mind.

So, who are you avoiding?

Is it that obvious?

um, everyone?

My dad mostly.

Um, I'm gonna be right back.

Just gonna get an iron.

Okay...

Um...

I know it's too little too late,

but I really am sorry
about your wrist.

That was on me
when I threw the first punch.

Yeah. Shocked
the hell out of me.

I hadn't been in a fistfight

since boarding school?

Yeah, it shows.

Yeah. Yeah, it did.

And now, weddings and um...

Um, the last family
wedding was mine.

you were married.

Almost.

Got all the way to the altar,

stood there for... 30 minutes

before I heard
that she was a no-show.

Oof.

Yeah.

my God,
best idea ever.

I can finally breathe again.

Yeah, there's nothing like
the high country air.

It's what grounded me
on my wedding day.

So, you had jitters too?

Think I was just
more so excited

to start my life with Austin.

I knew exactly
what I wanted for us.

We would travel the circuit,

I'd watch him win competition
after competition,

then we'd have little ones

eventually take over the ranch
so Isabel could retire.

Have big family Christmases
with sleigh rides

- and snowball fights.
- Yeah. That's what I want.

Minus the circuit.

Yeah. Life doesn't always turn
out that way now, does it?

I don't know, I just...

I want today to be perfect

and then, I will figure out
the rest later.

I mean, even if today
is not perfect, it...

it's just a wedding.
That doesn't define marriage.

You know, marriage is
your life's journey together.

Yeah.

Careful that doesn't fall off.

Yeah.

It's five karats.

My mom was very excited

about the five.

She just wants me

and Sophie to be secure.

And considering I started
three businesses

and they all flopped, I don't
think I can do it myself.

I mean, you pulled
this wedding together yourself

in just a couple of weeks,

so I think you're more
than capable.

Where are you?

- What?
- nothing.

- Is it my mother?
- No, no, no.

No, everything's fine.

Is it Josh?

Did he post... Did he postpone
the wedding?

- What?
- I mean, maybe that's why

he postponed his flight
and, and, and...

He got nerves too.

I mean, boardroom mergers

- don't make for great marriages.
- No, that's not it at all.

Josh is fine, everything is...

...fine. It's just...

It's your dress.

If you're gonna blame
anyone, blame me.

Me. I... I ripped it.

This is a 35,000-dollar dress.

- Wait.
- What?

For this?

We were trying to be really,
really careful. I swear.

It took 1,500 hours and
five seamstresses to make.

We'll fix it.

- What's happening?
- I don't know.

I'm sorry, it's just
if my mother saw this,

her brain would explode.

This is all Grace Booker.

She can't... she can't see this.
She'll be devastated.

- She'll never know.
- Yeah, we'll,

we'll keep an eye out.

Okay.

Did you notice
how Grace Booker

was kind of looking at Val?

Maybe.

And then, Tucker and that
whole belt buckle thing?

You're starting
to sound like me.

I know that I questioned you
in the beginning,

but you were onto something
with Val and the IDs.

Maybe you have a really good
Spidey-sense.

So, what are you suggesting?

That I confront her?

'Cause the last time I did that,

I got in a lot of trouble
with my boyfriend.

"Boyfriend."

Is that okay or is that
gonna be a problem?

It's about damn time!

Because I've come to realize

that my boyfriend's number one
priority is protecting

the people he loves.

So, as long as it's coming
from that place...

Nicely done.

But I think you missed
a little spot.

♪Finally, finally
my lover's coming around ♪

♪Finally, finally
my lover's coming around ♪

♪Baby, come around ♪♪

Just me. Don't worry.

All right.

How is it?

Here. Done!

- You did it!
- Well, if you look closer,

you can see that the seams
have been restitched.

Yeah, who cares,
all right?

It's wearable, it looks great.
I mean, you...

- you saved the day.
- Yeah.

You know, I gotta say...
I nailed it!

You nailed it.

- Ooh!
- Woo!

Cash.

We... we laugh and we get along.

I'm stunning, you're...

decently attractive.

How long are we gonna dance
around this?

I'm not dancing.

Um...

We should get this to the bride.

Yeah. Yeah.

give you a flower
for your thoughts there.

Sorry. I can come back later.

Daniel Booker wants to have
the stadium be in his name.

What now?

Well... Well, what did Hank say?

Hank is off the grid.

- right, yeah.
- He's gone fishing.

Yep, he's gone fishing.

Now, Daniel Booker
can bamboozle me

with all this paperwork

that I have to sign
by the end of the day.

Yeah, but Dusty and Austin,
that's...

I mean, that's the reason
that you did this whole thing

in the first place.

Maybe I should just sign.

- I don't know. I don't know.
- No.

Isabel, listen. You...

You have to speak
his love language.

- Cody...
- No, no.

Helen gave me this book
on relationships.

Obviously, that didn't help us
too much, but...

Turns out, everyone has
a different love language.

I'm not marrying
Daniel Booker.

No, no. It's a business
partnership,

so it's like a union.

You have to figure out

what language
your partner speaks.

Then, you'll know
how to deal with him.

Well, let's bring that up
at the meeting next week.

Yeah. Okay, I'll see you then.

Bye-bye.

Good.

Great.

I'll make sure that Hank gets
this first thing Monday morning.

- Thank you.
- I didn't sign it.

Isabel, I am...

...making a significant
investment here.

The McMurray name may not come
with a dollar sign,

- but we are worth something.
- Of course.

We have every intention
of putting up a wall of honour.

- You're using our name...
- to attract investors.

And that is the money
that we bring to the table.

I see.

So, the McMurray name does
come with a dollar sign then.

- Yes, I suppose it does.
- Right.

Well, then, I guess we'll be
revisiting the name, won't we?

Yes. We will.

Hey, have either of you
seen or talked to Gus?

- Yeah, yeah. He's been...
- he's been keeping busy.

Laura, you look beautiful.

Wow, it fits like a glove.

I just realized that I don't
having anything borrowed.

I have something old, new, blue,

- but nothing--
- I feel very

out of place here. I'm gonna
leave you ladies to it.

wait, Cash. Do you mind
opening a bottle of champagne

- for us before you go?
- Yeah, you got it.

I'm gonna go check
on the caterers.

Why don't you borrow
something of mine?

It just has to represent love.

Here.

Austin proposed to me with this.

I always loved him more
than the engagement ring itself.

It showed that he knew me
better than anyone else.

It's beautiful.

I was thinking maybe you could

put your rings inside and Sophie
can walk down the aisle with it.

She would love that.

Josh would love that too.
He's a romantic.

You're gonna love him.
Everyone loves him.

Can I make... an observation?

Yes, of course.

You've talked a lot
about Josh today,

about how your parents love him,
how Sophie loves him,

how Gus loves him.

But I haven't...

actually heard you say
that you love him.

Hey, hey, you guys.

Um, can I talk to you
for a second?

I really hate to be
the bearer of bad news,

but Laura has decided
not to get married today,

and she wanted me to relay
that information to you.

What?! No, no. No.

But we just saw her
in her dress.

Where is she? Why isn't she
telling us this herself?

- I need to talk to her.
- She left about 15 minutes ago.

She's already spoken to Josh
and she has Sophie with her.

- Okay...
- How did she leave?

- We flew here.
- She took the getaway car.

Maybe don't call it that?

We have 70 guests arriving!

Do you know how much business
this is gonna cost me?

- It's a marriage, just...
- I don't understand!

This morning on the way up here,

she was bubbling
with excitement.

Then, she spent the day
with you.

What?

What? What did you say?

- Gus.
- I don't, just,

maybe just tell us
what happened.

- Maybe you said something.
- Really? You think I did this?

I'm calling Laura. You call
the car. We're out of here.

Maybe. You have your
commitment issues...

Commitment issues?
Or she just wants to make sure

she finds the right person?

Really? After what
we talked about?

- Wait, what did you talk about?
- Gus, I'm sorry about

what happened, man,
but this isn't your wedding.

- Your wedding?
- What is he talking about?

I was left at the altar.

Gus, I'm sorry.

I, I hadn't...
Why didn't you tell me?

I don't know and now,
it's happening again.

- Okay, well, look, I'm sorry.
- I'm really...

I'm sorry that this is
happening to you guys,

but I'm not the reason that

Laura decided
to call off her marriage.

She wasn't in love
and she realized

she was just doing this
to make you guys happy.

- You know what?
- I've had enough

and we are out of here!
Let's go. Let's go.

Wait a minute! What about,
I mean, the caterers,

the guests are arriving,
what...?

- You handle it, Isabel.
- This is on you.

- Gus.
- I'm, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about all this.
I just can't.

Could you just give me
a minute?

- Yeah, make it quick.
- Thanks.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Um, I think everybody
just needs to cool down.

Yeah, of course.

Look, I'm...

I'm so sorry that I've been
so... back and forth with us.

I... I can only imagine with
everything you've been through

that it must be hard, um...

I just, I didn't wanna lose
myself in something again

because I did that with Austin,
but you're not like that.

You let me be me.

It's because I...

You know how I feel
about you, right?

Yeah. You've been so patient.

I just um...

When my wedding went sideways,
Laura kind of rescued me.

She protected me
from my parents

and helped clean up
in the aftermath.

And you'll... let me know

if there's anything
I can do to help with that.

Um...

I think I just... I need
to spend time with my family

right now, so...

For now, I think I just need
some space.

Okay.

and by space, you mean...

Just take care
of yourself, okay?

Gus...

Missy.

- I never forget a face.
- What is your name?

Valeria.

When we were in Houston,

Dan and I donated to a hospital,
St. Vincent.

Did you volunteer there?

I don't know that place.

It'll come to me.

Hey, Austin. There you are.

Missy's been looking
everywhere for you.
She's in the stables.

Hey. You think I'm pulling
too much to the left here?

Hey, can you not think

about riding for one night, man?

You're getting
married tomorrow.

Yeah. I am, but thankfully,

my bride is a little more
understanding than you are.

- Yeah, she's the most
understanding person
I've ever met.

All right.

You think I'm doing this
for me,

In case you forgot,

our daddy was the king
of bull riding

in this part of the country.

Now, you were too young
to remember,

but when he died,

everyone said that I'd be
walking in his boots one day.

All right? I am doing this
for the family

- and don't you ever forget that.
- Come on, Austin!

Don't make it sound
like you're suffering.

You love the attention!

You love it! Just... Just don't

drag Missy along
trying to cheer you on.

Okay. You wanna
hear me say it? Yeah.

I love this.
But so does she.

You love it. You love it.

You don't even...

You don't even see her.

I see her.

I see her, Cash. Okay?

I see how much she knows
about bull riding.

She is my muse, brother.

She's just a prize
for you, Austin.

She's just a pretty girl
hanging on to your arm,

but you don't love her the way
she deserves to be loved!

And you do?

If you see her so well, why
isn't she marrying you?

She is marrying me.

It's over, Cash.

And there it is!

Austin McMurray does it again!

The champ!

That man gets under my skin.

Imagine just being
so self-centred

that you make your daughter's
broken engagement

about yourself.

How can I even go
into business with that guy?

You know, at least now,
you saw his true colours.

You can decide whether
you can put up with him or not.

You know what I mean.

Well, yeah.
Got a lot of food here.

- That a suggestion or...?
- No, ma'am.

Nope. That's
that's an invitation.

I want you to be my plus-one.

Hi.

You trying to escape too?

- Yeah, that was intense.
- Yeah.

Is is Missy okay?

Yeah, I think so.

- hey.
- Cash.

For a while now, I've been
feeling this um...

spark between us.

Me too.

And a few weeks ago,
when we had those moments...

...I was confused. I didn't know
what to feel.

Um, yeah. Look, clearly,
we have this spark,

but you know,
maybe it's just not...

like that, you know.

Yeah.

Friends forever?

Friends forever.

Hey, can I give you some advice?
As a friend?

I think you need
to be honest with yourself.

In your heart,
there's only one person

and if you're not kissing her...

...I don't think any kiss
is gonna feel right.

I love you, Val.

Love you too.

Um...

- I'm gonna bring this to Isabel.
- Yes.

Val.

Good timing.

- Hi.
- Are you okay?

Yeah. Yeah, it's just
some wedding.

Yeah.

I know everything's
been crazy,

dealing with
the wedding planning,

and the Bookers, and--

And you kind of ran out
of there pretty quickly

when you saw Grace.

I just want you to know...

...you're family.
No matter what.

Maybe not by name,
but in your heart. So...

If there's anything
you need to speak now

or forever hold
your peace about...

Tuff...

We got your back.

It's okay.

It'll be okay.

all the way over here.

Just stop blaming yourself.

I pushed... Gus away

because I somehow managed
to convince Laura

to call off her wedding? I...

Do you really think she left
the man she was gonna marry

because of something
that you said?

Well, no, but...

No.

He still left.

This is really gonna mess up

the stadium deal for you,
isn't it?

No. Look, there will be
fallout, but...

We'll weather it and,
you know...

...move on.

Just one thing at a time.

What a day.

I think I just went
on a date with Cody.

What?

Wait, really? Where? When?

We... had wedding
food together.

With a man that
I'm not related to.

And I haven't been on a date
with anyone since Dusty.

Can I ask why not?

Well, I...

I mean, I was suddenly left
with two young boys

and another on the way,
and a working ranch,

I just, I didn't have
time to mourn,

much less think about dating.

And then, you came along.

And Val showed up, and...

I just...

I never really thought about it.

Well, you know you have a lot
to offer someone, right?

Yeah, I know, I...

Look, I love the ranch.

I love my family.

I don't need a man
complicating all that.

Yeah, but... wouldn't it be
nice to get all dressed up

and go for dinner and feel those
butterflies in your stomach?

No. I just want to skip
the wining and the dining

and the gameplaying,

and just get right
to the good part.

And then, you stay up all night

binge-watching
a great m*rder mystery.

- Right?
- Yeah.

I don't mind
the wining and dining.

And the butterflies.

But really, I just...
want someone to wake up next to.

Gosh, why is it so hard for us
to get what we want?

If I knew the answer to that,
we'd be richer than Oprah.

Right?

Hey.

- Hey.
- Hate to crash the party,

but can we borrow you guys
for a minute?

- Yeah. What's...
- what's going on?

I have to tell you something.
