[news reporter]
Then the disagreement
between America's prince
and his volatile princess
appears to turn physical.
Carolyn runs up
from behind and tackles him,
grabbing his neck
and nearly shoving him
to the ground.
Sources close to the couple
say that Bessette
is prone to outbursts
and mood swings,
even speculating that
John John is ready
to call it quits.
[footsteps approaching]
-Mrs. Kennedy. She's here.
-Mmm.
Oh.
[♪♪ wistful music plays]
Good afternoon, Mrs. Kennedy.
Please, have a seat.
Come on.
[porcelain clinking]
[music ends]
Hmm.
You remind me of her, Jackie.
When I first met Jackie,
it was in 1953,
a few years after
Bobby and I got married.
Every year we'd have these
Saint Patrick's Day parties,
black tie.
[chuckles] I used to love to
push people into the pool.
-[both chuckle]
-[Ethel] Oh, geez.
Really?
Oh, anything
for a scrap of attention.
I was one of six children.
I learned early on
that love is a blood sport.
[chuckles]
So, I told all the guests
to wear black
and then I'd show up in green.
I was never gonna be beautiful,
but I could always be special.
Until Jackie.
My green dress and I
didn't stand a chance.
I could've showed up naked
as Eve
and nobody would've
taken their eyes off of her.
Not even Bobby.
[sighs]
And like Jackie
[chuckles]
you have been spared
the indignity
of the world's indifference.
You are noticed.
And now it's entirely
up to you whether
to receive this gift,
as burdensome as it may be,
with grace.
-[♪♪ sentimental music plays]
-Oh, Jackie certainly did.
After what happened in Dallas,
she didn't take off
that pink jacket
for twenty-four hours.
She said, "I want them
to see what they did to Jack."
She never forgot that
people would be looking at her.
And then five years later,
when it was Bobby
and I was nine months pregnant
with a daughter
who would never
meet her father.
I was I was in such pain,
such every [chuckles]
imaginable kind of pain.
But if Jackie could face
the world soaked in blood,
armored in death
then I could too,
armored in life.
I wanted them to see what
they had done to my family.
You've had a lot of loss.
Well, I've been blessed
with a lot to lose.
As have you.
But you'll never be given
the benefit of the doubt again,
as ugly and unfair as that is.
Oh, Carolyn, these men,
they will break your heart.
They'll drive you crazy.
They'll make you want
to scream.
Don't.
The whole world
will be watching you.
It's your choice
what you want them to see.
This family means something
to people.
You understand that?
I'm like the only one
that understands that.
[scoffs]
I'm the one who's trying
to salvage this family's
reputation.
Oh, that's what you're doing?
Salvaging?
I f*cked up once.
I let my guard down
for fifteen minutes.
What about the thirty-six years
before that?
What about the thirty-six years
before that?
Do I get any credit for that?
Do I get any credit for that?
Agreeing to do things like that
makes you complicit
in all of this.
What about that
don't you understand?
Do you think I like being
stalked by the national press?
This isn't my fault, Caroline.
You're the one who told me
to start taking
personal responsibility.
You've never been this,
uh, volatile
around a girlfriend before.
Yeah, well,
it's been a volatile year.
Carolyn is the first person
I've been with,
probably the first person
I've ever met who looks at me
and sees something
other than that little boy.
And she's not my girlfriend.
I, uh I don't understand.
You, uh, broke up?
She's my fiancé.
-Did you know this?
-No.
[slaps table]
Jesus, John.
[sighs]
[John] If she was under
who knows what kind of sh*t
the press would print
about her and Ed, you know.
[Carolyn] Mm-hmm.
[John] Like, she just glides
through life totally unnoticed.
She doesn't know
how lucky she is.
How's the book?
Yeah, uh, comprehensive.
Mmm.
I think Caroline just meant
for it to be
a jumping off point,
but that point looks
like a cliff.
Oh, my God,
I forgot about that suit.
[Carolyn]
Oh, it's enormous. Ed, why?
-[chuckles]
He looks like David Byrne.
-[chuckles]
But also someone
who's never heard
of David Byrne.
But also someone
who's never heard
of David Byrne.
All right. [groans]
All right. [groans]
Listen, forget about the book.
What do you want?
I don't know.
I never thought about
my wedding.
Getting married
just never seemed
as romantic as being married.
Then f*ck it.
Let's just go to City Hall.
Let's go be married.
I'm serious.
No.
No, we can't. We can't.
The press will find out.
-Plus, my mom would k*ll me.
-Mmm.
As would your sister.
Mmm.
And I do want the people
that we love to be there.
I just don't know
how that's possible
without two hundred people
we can barely tolerate
also being there.
[sighs]
[sighs]
[music continues]
Did you know Bobby
had twenty-one groomsmen?
And what? You want more?
Thirty?
-Forty? Carolyn, be reasonable.
-[music ends]
I want like forty guests total.
So, then we'll have
forty guests, total.
[♪♪ "Common People" playing]
-And no bouquet toss.
-No.
-No disposable cameras
on every table.
-Ugh.
-No party favors.
-No.

She's pathologically
incapable of keeping a secret.
Plus, she's furious my mom

-[door opens]
Oh, there he is.
-Morning, Michael.
-Hi, Mike.
Wow, quite the, uh,
top secret operation
you got going on here, huh?
-Feels like
I'm in the Situation Room.
-[phone ringing]
I wouldn't know.
Can we talk, please?
In private?
-Can it wait?
-[Berman] No.
[sighs]
Listen, William Morris
keeps hounding me about
getting a lunch on the books.
[John] Can't get a reservation?
You know,
you keep blowing this off,
John.
TV. That's how Martha Stewart
turned a magazine
into a billion dollar empire.
Yeah,
and that's great for Martha.
If we don't find additional
revenue streams,
we are f*cked. Period.
-[clears throat]
-Fine, set the meeting.
As long as everyone's clear
that my involvement
in a George TV show is
producing-only.
You know, you're photographed
every g*dd*mn day of your life.
What?
Suddenly you're so camera shy?
[sighs]
Have you thought about
my other proposal?
What?
Publishing my wedding photos
in the magazine?
Yeah.
Yeah, I thought about it
long and hard,
and I figured, why stop there?
Why not publish our vows?
Or pictures of Carolyn naked,
getting ready?
Really get some bang
for our buck.
f*cking as*h*le.
[Carolyn]
I love your earrings, Caroline.
-Beautiful.
-Thank you.
They were mummy's, right?
Used to be.
I haven't had salad
after pasta since Positano.
-Mm-hmm.
-It's, uh, fun.
[speaks Italian]
"You're welcome."
[speaks Italian]
I'm half-Italian.
I've got a nonna
in Bay Ridge and everything.
[Ed] Oh, my goodness.
-[speaks Italian]
-[Carolyn chuckles]
-Perfect. Thank you.
-All right.
Mmm.
Salad's delicious by the way.
Ed picked these dandelions
himself in Central Park.
Urban foraging.
There's a book in that.
Maybe even an ethos.
Oh, you know, our house
in Sagaponack has a
hell of a garden,
Uh, Petit Trianon,
but, you know, sizable.
-Grand Trianon.
Marie-Antoinette's garden.
-[Caroline chuckles]
Mm-hmm.
[clears throat]
Say,
you know what I just thought?
Um
Why don't the two of you
just get married there?
Seriously? This? Again?
-Stop ambushing us.
-[Caroline scoffs]
Ambush? Honestly,
John, I'd hardly call
a generous offer an ambush.
This is now the fourth time
that you've
generously offered--
Look. Setting aside
the massive inconvenience
of a barrier island
without an airport,
not to mention the lunacy
of an outdoor event
in the late summer
in the deep South--
We don't want to have
a state dinner.
I think what John means--
I know what he means.
He doesn't want
a Kennedy wedding.
That's what he means.
No, we do. We absolutely do.
We just want
an intimate Kennedy wedding.
Intimate. I see.
So, not five hundred people
and the Chamber Singers
of New England performing
"America the Beautiful"?
That sort of thing?
We just don't want a spectacle.
Another spectacle, you mean.
After the spectacle
in the park?
After the spectacle
in the park?
[Carolyn] That's fair.
[Carolyn] That's fair.
Yes, the press
is part of our decision-making.
I mean, how can it not be?
Well, I haven't been included
in any decisions,
so I can't really speak to
the nuances of your thinking.
Caroline, the last thing
we want you to feel is
excluded.
You know
you're lucky mummy's not here.
Oh, I'm lucky that mummy's
too dead to come to my wedding?
[♪♪ jazz music playing]
So, Cumberland Island it is.
Have you settled
on an officiant?
Take it down, and up.
Really feel
So, how did Calvin take it
when you told him about
Narciso doing the dress?
[sighs]
Oh, my God, Carolyn.
Are you serious?
You have to tell him.
What if it leaks
and he finds out from Page Six?
I mean,
he'll probably just be relieved
it's not another article
about his divorce.
Just be honest.
[groans]
Isn't the guilt eating away
at you?
I have to ask you something.
Uh, is everything okay?
Uh, yeah.
[sighs]
I was I was thinking about
asking Caroline to be
my maid of honor.
Caroline Kennedy?
[scoffs]
She was so hurt.
I mean
she didn't say that obviously,
but I've never seen her
and John fight like that.
I think she feels
really excluded,
and I get that. I do.
I mean,
it's been really hard to try to
integrate the families
without risking a leak.
And I just,
I think maid of honor would go
a really long way with her,
and I don't know
what else to do
to make her feel important.
I can't go into my wedding
my marriage
with her resenting me.
Why would she resent you?
For taking her only family left
away from her.
Lauren, the Kennedys are
like the Beatles.
I feel like Yoko.
You have sisters too.
-Do you care
if I resent you or Lisa?
-Lauren, of course.
Is Richard still walking
you down the aisle?
-Or have you upgraded
to Ted Kennedy?
-Please. That's not what I--
"Please" what?
What do you want me to say,
Carolyn?
That you understand.
Oh, I understand.
I just don't think
it's going to get you
what you want.
-Lauren--
-This will mean nothing to her.
And it would have meant
everything to me.
Look, I gotta go.
[sighs]
I'm sorry.
For somebody
who's practically a Kennedy,
you suck at politics.
Did John brief you
on Ed's concerns with his suit?
Uh, no.
I mean, I'm sure this Gordon
is very capable,
but the thing is,
the last person to fit Ed
for a suit was Willie Smith.
Made a suit for our wedding.
Right, of course,
the oversized blue one.
Mmm.
[chuckles]
I don't envy Gordon
having to measure up to that.
Willie wasn't
just some fashion designer.
He was an artist.
Yes,
Gordon has a big suit to fill.
Mmm.
Caroline,
can I ask you something?
I'm gonna go get some fabric.
I'll be right back.
How would you feel about
being my maid of honor?
[♪♪ sentimental music playing]
Uh
Really?
Wow, um
This is a Kennedy wedding
and I want it to feel like one.
Plus I know
it would mean a lot to John.
And to me, obviously.
I just know
when he looks at you he
he sees them.
And I want them
to be up there with us.
I'd be honored. Thank you.
Okay.
Shall we?
[music continues]
-[Carolyn clears throat]
-All right.
Caroline,
do you want to go ahead
and we'll follow?
We've been
photographed together
plenty of times.
Right, I'm just thinking
Narciso's a designer.
Someone connects the dots
Connects the dots
of a vast fashion conspiracy?
[both chuckle]
Sure, you're probably right.
Let's just go.
He's doing her dress.
-Who?
-[Calvin scoffs]
Exactly.
Narciso "Who" Rodriguez.
Maybe
they're just going shopping?
No.
I know for a fact those women
aren't friends.
How's that for gratitude?
Yeah, sorry.
So sorry.
[clears throat]
[knocks on door]
Is now a bad time?
No [chuckles] come in.
[door closes]
[Carolyn]
I saw the piece in Time.
"America's
Congratulations.
[Calvin]
And did you see the other list
that they published?
"The 10 most powerful people
in America."
Bill Gates, Rupert Murdoch,
Michael Eisner
[mouthing words] But no Calvin.
[both chuckle]
Influence is fleeting.
It's contingent
on one's relevancy,
which can vanish
at the drop of a hat.
You look different.
Oh, I colored my hair.
No, it's something else.
I was just looking
through these old Polaroids.
You remember
when I used to have you
all photographed
when you came into work?
Even then you knew
how to distinguish yourself,
draw the eye.
Now look at you,
you're the premier it girl.
You're the toast of the town.
I don't know about that.
Well,
John reads all his own press,
so I'm sure
you know a little about it.
That humility
will serve you well.
I, um
I wanted to talk to you
because
Uh
[sighs]
Well, first, I hope you know
how deeply indebted I am to you
for your mentorship,
your friendship.
You've changed my life.
You saw something in me
and fostered it.
And for that
I am forever grateful, truly.
I just, um
[♪♪ wistful music plays]
I think it's become apparent
that I can no longer serve you
or this company
in the way we both would like.
Oh. [chuckles]
Okay [chuckles]
that's not where
I thought this conversation
was going.
I just think my presence here
has become
a bit of a distraction.
My whole job is to platform
and promote your work
and I can't do that
to my full ability and--
You think
you're stealing focus?
No. No.
I know all of this is
only temporary but--
Oh, don't downplay it, Carolyn.
You're the realization
of every woman's dream.
America's son has chosen you.
It's not a temporary feat,
it's a masterstroke.
That being said, um
from one who considers himself
a visionary, uh,
I am feeling a bit blindsided.
[stammers]
I've had mentees outgrow
their jobs in the past,
but not once
in my 27-year career
has one left
on account of outgrowing me.
has one left
on account of outgrowing me.
No, no, that's not it at all.
What you have built here is
extraordinary.
No, no, that's not it at all.
What you have built here is
extraordinary.
-I just can't--
-I-- It's fine.
It's fine.
I mean,
it's partially my fault.
I-I clearly miscalculated
this relationship.
You haven't.
That's why I feel like
I need to leave,
because I cannot bear
the thought of this
being compromised.
[music continues]
You're a very bright light,
Carolyn, I really hope
that that doesn't change.
-I'm sorry.
-Don't be.
[sighs]
He's a good fit, by the way.

Narciso.
You'll be in good hands.

No, we talked about all this.

we figured it out.
He's not interested

Of course he is.
Please tell me you know that.
That's not who he is.
Not who he is?
Who is he?
I don't think he has any idea.
All he knows
is who he's supposed to become.
The heir to Camelot.
That's the only thing
the world has ever told him.
If there's no Camelot,
then what was
the point of all this loss?
He could walk away
from all of that tomorrow.

[Ann clears throat]
I'm, uh Hello.
Hi.
[music ends]
Uh, I'm Ann, Carolyn's mom.
To Kennedys, far and wide,
thank you so much
for welcoming
the Bessette-Freemans
into your family.
I hope we've made you
feel welcomed into ours.
Uh
[chuckles]
When Carolyn first
told me she was dating John,
I had to pretend
to be surprised.
Carolyn doesn't know this,
but Lauren had already told me.
-Mom. I'm gonna cry.
-[Ann] Sorry, Lauren.
Sorry.
I, uh I didn't make much of it
at first,
I just figured
it would be a fun fling,
and then, you know,
back to reality.
[guests chuckle]
So when
it started getting serious
between the two of them,
I just remember thinking,
"How is she going to navigate
all of this?"
John's life was just so big,
and I worried how could
Carolyn--
How could anyone manage to
maintain their own
center of gravity
around something that massive?
That shiny?
Which isn't, uh,
something I ever thought
I'd have to worry about
with Carolyn,
who's always been
a force of nature
in her own right.
I remember when she was 16
and I picked her up
at the bus stop,
I remember when she was 16
and I picked her up
at the bus stop,
I noticed all of her friends
were sitting
in the back of the bus
I noticed all of her friends
were sitting
in the back of the bus
and Carolyn was up front.
After about a week of this,
I asked her,
"Why aren't you sitting
with all of your friends?"
And she told me that
there was a new girl
who got car sick.
And she didn't want her
to sit alone.
As if that's
what anyone would do.
What more could you want
in a daughter?
Or a wife?
Or anyone?
Carolyn has always
made other people feel seen
and heard.
It's kind of like
her superpower.
[chuckles]
John
I know that
you have been burdened
with enormous expectations
and that there are
a lot of people on the bus
clamoring for your attention
I just hope that
when you are faced with it all
you don't choose to sit where
you are expected or wanted,
but where you are needed.
That is something that
I pray she can count on.
I'm sorry.
-[sniffles]
-[♪♪ sentimental music plays]
[door opens]
[door closes]
[music ends]
That was quite the speech.
I'm sorry if my words hurt you.
I was talking about Ed.
[both chuckle]
[sighs]
You know,
you don't have to worry.
I'm gonna care for her, Ann.
She would give up everything
for you.
Can you say the same?
You know, you talk about her
like she's some shipwreck.
The truth is,
she's the most intact,
unbroken person I've ever met.
My life isn't massive
without your daughter.
It's nothing.
And she's my family now.
And so are you.
And angry or not,
you're here with me tonight.
And my parents, well
[sighs]
And I just want you to know
that I don't take
your presence here
or in my life for granted.
I'm going to prove that to you
and to Carolyn.
For the rest of our lives.
I know you believe that.
[♪♪ dramatic music playing]
[John]
Thought I'd find you out here.
-Thank you.
-[John] You're welcome.
You okay?
-You wanna talk about it?
-[sighs]
Not really.
It's unbelievable.
This is the same ocean
as Hyannis.
[Carolyn] Mmm.
Same ocean by Grandma Jennie's
in Queens.
It's kind of terrifying.
Something so big and vast.
I find it comforting.
It's all just one big thing,
you know,
and it always will be.
There's, uh, certainty.
You're gonna be my wife
tomorrow.
[chuckles]
I'm gonna be your wife forever.
