Previously on "Life unexpected":
Ryan, will you marry me?

So, when, when is the big day?

Two weeks.

To Cate and Ryan.

How long has it been?

How long has what been?

Since you've had feelings for Cate?

I thought that if I gave it
time, the feelings would go away.

I don't know if I want
the feelings to go away.

You told me to tell you when I was ready

for you to be my parents officially...

and I am.

I'm ready.

Today we come together on
this most special of days.

Today is a day to appreciate,

one you will look back on and cherish.

Your journey to get here hasn't been easy.

The road has been long and winding...

The path, hard to see at
times, impossible, even.

But now you stand here before me,

ready to make an everlasting commitment...

To yourselves and to each other.

This is a day you'll celebrate.

It's a day that's been a long time coming,

years in the making.

Yet today is just the beginning.

I've been doing this for a long time.

I've seen a lot of
heartache and disappointment

because prayers are rarely answered,

and usually, dreams remain dreams.

But today your dream becomes a reality.

The state of Oregon finds that it is
in the best interest of Lux Cassidy

to have the rights of her
biological parents reinstated.

Lux, you are no longer
a ward of the state.

Full, permanent joint
custody has been granted

to Catherine Cassidy and Nathaniel Bazile

congratulations to you
all you're a family.

Come here.

Okay!

Smile!

Fern...

Thank you.

So you'll never forget this day.

Please, don't tell anyone...

That this was the first thing
we did as parents, please?

Hmm. Well, I think you've done worse.

Well, at least, Baze has.

Okay, a toast to bong lamps.

And, oh, inflatable sheep.

You and Baze getting custody.

To illegal keg parties, young lady.

And to road trips.

You and Cate getting arrested.

And to breakups.

Breakdowns.

You and Baze getting along?

Yes, we are getting along.

Yeah. It's almost like

I like you.

All right, to the three of us.

To family.

Cheers.

We got the rings!

Talked to the minister.

Uh, the rehearsal is on for tonight at...

5:00.

So, is it official?

It's all legal? You're
a part of the family?

Mm-hmm.

I guess tomorrow's my turn, huh?

You know, I was just about to get going.

Wait, no! We haven't
even started eating yet.

My mom. Mom? Hey, what's up?

- What?!
- What's wrong?

Are you kidding me?

I mean, who... who
buys peel-and-eat shrimp

from some dude at an intersection?

Abby got food poisoning.

The day before our wedding?

Happiest day of our lives, right?

That was fun...

for about five seconds.

Yeah.

Are you really not gonna say anything...

About how you feel?

You're just gonna watch
her get married tomorrow?

I'm not gonna watch anything.

I'm going to steer clear
of all things "wedding."

I don't want to see it. Mmm.

I don't want to hear anything about it.

So that's the kind of
family we're gonna be.

The kind that just sits
around lying to each other

because we can't say how we feel?

Lesson numero uno: That's every family.

Mom, please, you can't be late!

You're walking me down the aisle.

Why is Abby making my entire
wedding day all about her?

I mean, she better be walking
around with an iv drip.

Wait. She is?

Oh, my God.

I come bearing inappropriate
wedding favors...

And something from corporate.

Got it!

Okay, mom, look, I gotta go.

I mean, Alice, she just showed
up with all of the gifts.

Abby? She can barely stand.

Shot glasses?

My mom ordered "Cate
and Ryan" shot glasses?

Corporate wants to lock us
into a five-year contract.

The station just wants to protect itself

to ensure that no matter whatever happens

between the two of you,
you're not going anywhere.

Yeah, of course we're not going anywhere.

Yeah, well, we're not gonna be bullied

into signing something
the day before our wedding.

Would you rather exile yourself
into a career in easy listening?

Because that's what could happen.

Um, Cate? Hmm?

Your rehearsal dinner
place just fell through.

I don't know...

something about septic
tanks and knee-deep water.

I tuned out before I started gagging.

Cate, look, don't freak out, okay?

It could be worse.

Abby's sick. Corporate's up our butts.

The site of our rehearsal dinner
is literally drowning in crap.

I'm, uh, I'm just gonna... bye.

Wha...?

Look, we can figure this out, okay?

We just need somewhere
that seats 50 people

that's willing to have
our caterers take over.

What about Baze's?

Yeah, you have a space.

Um... it's Friday night, and it's
a big night for the bar, so I...

Well, we'd be, uh, you know, we'd
be willing to cover your losses.

Yeah, right.

I just don't think it's
a... it's not a great idea.

It is our only idea.

So unless there is some other
reason that you don't want

to have our rehearsal
dinner at your bar...?

Sure.

Why not?

Let's do it.

I'm gonna head over to the rehearsal.

You can 86 the stinkeye.

I'm sorry I offered up your place.

I just...

I think you shouldn't pretend
this wedding's not happening.

You can't avoid her.

Besides, she said that you
should always be honest.

I don't think she meant that honest.

Honesty is like, it's like being pregnant:

You either are or you aren't.

Come on. You have to
tell her how you feel.

What if she feels something, too?

Uh, if she did, she wouldn't
be marrying Ryan tomorrow.

Hey, hey, Nate, Lux!

Hey! How you doin', dad?

It's long time, no see.

I could say the same thing.

You know you're official, right?

An official gramps?

What?

Yeah.

Uh, yeah, we were reinstated
as Lux's parents this morning.

Well, I'm sure your mother
will be very happy to hear that.

Um, I gotta...

go to the church.

Look, dad, I would have
called you, but we wanted it

to be kind of like a, just a family thing.

Right, right. I mean, why would your
mother and I be involved in that?

Cate's parents weren't invited
either... or her fiancé.

It's just the three of us.

But I'm glad that you came down, dad.

Hi.

I came to get the rent.

Okay, dad, I'm sorry...

But I haven't heard from you in a while

since I showed up in the middle
of the night trying to support you?

- If I hurt your feelings...
- For my feelings to be hurt, I'd have

to have expected something
different from you...

but I don't.

You never change, Nate.

You can mail me the rent.

I don't really know what I'm doing here,

but since none of the
maid of honor showed up,

you guys somehow find your
way to the front, okay?

Yeah, boys.

Evelyn, Richard, hi.

Alice... your son's boss.

Okay, then, Ryan's going to bring
you in and walk you to the front row.

I'm not walking with him.

- Oh, God.
- Or sitting with him.

Give it a rest, Evy.

The adulterers could sit
on Cate's side of the aisle.

Uh, you know, Richard, you
could, you could sit with me.

Now your mom is putting
the moves on my dad.

I'd say we're two martinis away

from a really awkward situation

and a vital reshuffling of
the, of the seating chart.

Cate, hey!

Sorry. Um, I was just thinking
about Alice and the contract.

Ryan, I think you're already supposed

to be up at the stage-altar thingy.

Yeah, yeah-yeah.

All right, listen, I know Alice's timing

couldn't be more thoughtless.

Right here!

You know, we have Lux to think about.

There is just no reason
to say no to job security

unless we thought we wouldn't want

to spend the next five years together.

Wait a second.

Hmm?

Is that it?

You're not sure if you want to
spend the next five years together?

Look, marriage has enough
ups and downs, okay?

And... and there's no denying

that our... our show has
amped up our problems.

It might be better for our relationship

if we just don't get locked into it.

So, what, we should just get
locked into marriage then?

Cate, what are you...?

I'm just being realistic here.

Cate, we need you back here!

Sorry! I'm sorry I'm late!

At least you're not puking shrimp.

Go, go, go.

Oh. Oh, yeah.

Lux, a little slower.

You're not running from the police.

I was afraid you were a no-show.

And I'm already up there.

Honey, what's the matter?

Looks like you could use a box of wine.

No, I just want to get this over with.

For whatever it's worth, the
communion stuff tastes like swill,

but it gets the job done.

It's grape juice, mom.

What?

So, I'll begin by saying,

"we're gathered here today
to witness the joyful union

of Ryan Thomas and Cate Cassidy

as they commit their lives
to each other before God,

before family, before friends."

And I believe we have a reading by
Alice, one of Cate's bridesmaids?

Want to practice?

Sure.

I'm cool.

Okay.

So after Alice's reading,
I'll say a brief homily

and then we will turn it
over to you for your vows.

And you've opted to write your own.

Uh, yeah, we haven't... we
haven't written them yet,

but, uh, you know, we'll have them.

I mean anything down,
it's just really difficult.

Because you want your
vows to be beautiful,

but at the same time you want them
to be realistic. You know marriage.

It's a lot of ups and downs.

What's going on?

Okay, okay, what are you doing?

Why are we arguing about this right now?

Because, because I think you not
wanting to sign that contract...

I think that means something.

You know, what if you have
cold feet about marrying me?

Ow.

Cate, Ryan, stop arguing.

Come on.

Is that what this is all about?

I'm the guy you claim
has sweaty legs, remember?

My feet
- they couldn't be warmer.

After all that we've
been through together,

I mean, do you really need a contract
to prove that I'm not going anywhere?

What is wrong with me?

What, honey? No, I drink
mine that way all the time.

Do you think it's bad
that I don't believe him?

What? About the contract?

Cate, come on. He loves you.

Don't bother. She's hopeless.

Mom!

What? It's true.

I know what I'm talking about.

Honey, I've been married
four times, all right?

Trust me. People... they don't change.

Yeah, well, clearly.

Well, you know, you
are who you are, honey,

and you're a commitment-phobe
who eats her feelings

and doesn't believe in happy endings.

We are headed to the rehearsal dinner.

I have 200 alcohol-related wedding favors

in my trunk thanks to you.

No, this wedding is happening.

I mean, I want this wedding to happen.

If you did, you wouldn't be projecting.

Oh, great, so here we go.

Abby's not here, so you are
going to take over as the crappy

pseudo-therapist. Lux, back me up here.

She has two eyes. She
can see what's going on.

More champagne?

You're accusing Ryan of
not wanting to marry you

because it's too upsetting
to face the truth.

What truth?

Maybe you're the one who
doesn't want to marry him.

So listen, I feel bad about
the whole contract thing.

But we can figure it out, I swear, okay?

Let's just enjoy tonight,
and we'll get married.

We'll deal with it after, okay?

She says she's projecting.

Wait, who says what now?

Laverne says that Cate's afraid
Ryan doesn't want to marry her,

but really it's because, deep down,

Cate's not so sure she
wants to marry Ryan.

Maybe we're the ones projecting.

Or maybe she's having doubts
because of something else.

Baze... what if you're the one
that she's supposed to be with?

Lux, Lux... that's not how Cate sees me.

I'm not that guy.

Things have changed.

You saw the way that she was at breakfast

and on the road trip... City Hall?

Yeah, she was caught up
in the moment. We all were.

- That wasn't real.
- It could be.

My reality was two more
years in foster care

until I did something to change it.

You can, too.

I'd like to make a toast.

But Cate told me I wasn't allowed to.

So if I say anything inappropriate
it's the Merlot talking.

I remember when Ryan first met Cate, I think
he referred to her as a 5'2" sack of crazy.

I always thought Cate
took after her father...

non-committal, skittish, a
hint of a five o'clock shadow.

That's terrible.

Can I get a refill over here?

I've known Cate since we were 13.

I still remember I gave her a VHS tape
for her birthday, of a music video.

You know the one with
Paula Abdul and the cat?

Anyway, Cate made me
promise not to talk about

anything embarrassing like the number
of men she went through before Ryan.

Oh, don't worry. I won't say how
many, but it will blow your mind.

Can you hear me in the back?

I've always hoped that my son Ryan

would find someone deserving

of the wonderful man he is.

And in Cate, he has found... someone.

I can't say that I'm a
huge proponent of marriage.

I understand that sometimes
age catches up with you,

and you can't wait
forever, so you settle...

Down.

Settle down.

You and your sister,
wherever the hell she is

on her self-indulgent,
eat-pray-love tour,

were the only good thing to
come out of all my marriages.

- To the bride and groom.
- Bride and groom.

Hey.

You okay?

You left poor Ryan downstairs
fending for himself.

Was that me, or was that
more of a roast than a toast?

I don't know. Maybe it's a sign.

You know, maybe Abby was right.

I haven't grown up at all.

I mean, look at me.

Look at me: I'm outside hiding
out at my own rehearsal dinner.

I'm so scared to marry the guy I love.

I haven't changed at all.

Okay, I want to make a toast.

When Lux first showed
up back in our lives,

I did not peg you for mom material,

and I don't think that you
pegged you for mom material,

but you...

You have stepped up in every way.

You have changed yourself,
Cate and you've changed me.

I think marriage...

I think it's a really big deal.

And I don't think you should do
anything that you're not ready for.

I'm ready.

You know I'm the one that...

rushed for this whole thing to happen.

Yeah, I just, I didn't
want anything to ruin it.

You know, I'm anything.

And if I don't do this, I'll
be letting down Ryan and myself.

Lux.

What?

You said that you wanted
me to be honest, right?

Well, Lux does not...
want you to marry Ryan.

She wants us to be a family...

the three of us.

And you know what,

so do...

Really?

You stranded me down there?

That's a lot of crazy for one room.

Why do you think I'm up here?

Hey, uh, you want a beer, man?

Oh, I want like eight intravenously.

Hey, people are starting to head out,
so we should probably say good-bye.

Oh, thanks, man.

Hey, Baze, thanks for hosting.

I'm glad we're cool...

all three of us.

Yeah, we're cool.

Hey, it's Cate. Leave a message.

Hey, Cate, it's me.

I need to talk to you before tomorrow.

Call me back whenever. It
doesn't matter how late.

Just...

What are you? Sneaking up on me?

Why were you calling Cate?

I'm in love with her.

Yeah, right.

I want to tell her how I feel.

What are you trying to
do, stop the wedding?

Then what?

Say you guys get involved.

What happens if you decide
you made a huge mistake?

I don't know.

Maybe I won't.

So you tank her wedding for
you don't know, maybe you won't?

If I wanted a lecture,
I could call my dad.

Okay, and I can hear all
about how I'm not good enough,

how I'm a screwup; I haven't changed.

I'm not saying that.

But look, unless you're ready to commit

and offer something more
than Ryan can, which...

she loves Ryan.

She wants to marry Ryan.

If you really love her, the best
thing you could do is let her be happy.

Otherwise, your dad's right:

You haven't changed at all.

Hello.

It's open.

Um...

Did you tell Baze that you
didn't want me to marry Ryan?

What? No.

- Well, Baze said that you did.
- Cate, that's not what I said.

- You know how much I love Ryan.
- Mm-hmm.

And I would never want to mess things up.

All I said was I thought that Baze
should be honest with you like you said.

He's the one who doesn't
want you to marry Ryan.

He has feelings for you, Cate.

Baze does.

No, Lux, that's just some
excuse that he gave to Abby.

He told me after the road trip.

He wanted to tell you tonight.

I can't do this.

- Cate, Cate, wait.
- No.

- Think about it.
- I really don't want to think about this.

I just want to go to sleep.

I want to wake up in the
morning and I want to marry Ryan.

I'm sorry.

Look, as soon as you and Baze came back

into each other's lives,
you slept together.

You were jealous when
you caught him with Trina,

when you found out
that he was dating Abby.

I saw the way that you hugged him,

the way that he comforted
you on the road trip.

And... and today, that picture...

I saw you. You were holding hands.

Lux, I was just getting caught
up in the moment. We all were.

And I promise you, that is it.

Just stop making excuses!

You spend so much time
denying it and rationalizing it

and talking yourself out of
it, what if you just admit it?!

What would you like me to admit, Lux?!

That deep down...

you're having doubts about Ryan

because you know that you're meant

- to be with Baze.
- Baze and I,

we are not meant to be together.

My soul mate is not some guy that
knocked me up in the back of a minivan.

Come on. Th... that's,
like, that is a fantasy.

That is not real life.

Me finding you and
Baze, that was a fantasy.

Us becoming a family this
morning, that was a fantasy, too.

And if, and if those fantasies
can come true, why can't this one?

Night, Lux.

Hey.

Hey.

Cate, what are you...
what are you doing here?

- It's the middle of the night.
- I know.

I couldn't sleep. I, um...

Then I got your message.

Look, I just really need
to know what's going on.

Because, you know, you're
telling me one thing

and then Lux is telling me another thing.

And I'm... I'm just so confused
by what everyone is feeling,

I have no idea what I am feeling anymore.

Are you in love with me?

What?

Look, I just, I don't, I don't
want to be in denial anymore.

And I don't want to talk myself out of
something that's really happening. Um...

You know, because I felt
something this morning.

You know, if I'm being honest...

I felt it before this morning.

No, since the moment that you
have just come back into my life,

I have felt it.

You know, and I have tried to
convince myself that it is... wrong.

You know, I...

I've tried to, like, explain it away.

You know, that if I act like
it's not real, then it won't be.

But...

I just don't know, Baze.

What if it is?

You know, what if there is a part
of me that is in love with you, too?

Cate...

I'm sorry.

There is no too.

I don't, I don't know what
Lux... has been telling you,

but, um...

I'm not in love with you.

I know that I am their boss,
but I'm also their friend,

and they're getting married
in, like, two seconds.

Well, outside of forging their
signatures or firing them,

I mean, what else can I do?

- I have to go.
- We were all in there,

getting ready, Cate sent us out for ice,

and now she won't let us back in.

- What?!
- Yes.

Cate! And now the champagne

is just sitting in there,

not getting cold.

Don't understand this. When she left

the rehearsal dinner
last night, she was fi...

Oh, no.

Honey, if this is about what
I said in the limo, I'm sorry.

Is it about the contracts?

I don't think that's it.

If you and your dimples know
something, now's the time to spill it.

Hello?

Dad.

Nate, what are you doing here?

I need to talk to you.

Not here you don't.

Go home. You're embarrassing me.

And yourself.

I'm embarrassing you?

Keep your voice down.

That's what you do, dad.

You show up, you berate me...

it doesn't matter who's around...

you... you make me feel like
a failure, and then you leave.

Nate, I'm not gonna tell you this again.

This is not the time or place for this.

You go home and you clean yourself up...

Not until you hear what I have to say.

What do you want to say?

What, are you gonna blame me again?

You gonna tell me it's my fault

that you didn't even think
to call me or your mother?

It's my fault that I haven't
heard from you in a month?

It is your fault!

It is all your fault!

You are the reason that I can't step up!

You are the reason that
I am afraid to commit!

You are the reason that I
have nothing to offer her!

Her? What the hell are you talking about?

- Offer who?
- Oh.

You know what, it's no wonder...

It's no wonder that I
don't feel good enough.

It's no wonder that I can't
tell her that I love her.

Because I have never heard
it from the one person

that I'm supposed to hear it from.

Yesterday, I got to give my kid
something that she always wanted.

A dad.

I just... I'm still waiting for mine.

It's Baze. Do your thing.

Where are you?

I don't know what happened last
night, but Cate won't talk to anyone.

You have to call me as soon as
you get this. I'm at the church.

Oh. Oh!

Slow down. You okay?

Yeah. I should just get back inside.

This is new.

What?

Well, this whole cold shoulder thing
you've had going on since yesterday.

Did I do something to upset you?

No.

Ryan, I'm... I'm sorry.

It's not you. It's
just... it's everything.

It's... it's Baze and Cate...

What about Baze and Cate?

No, no, no.

It's not just them. It's...

it's this.

All of this.

Barely one thing happens, you know,

and we're already onto the next.

Yeah.

Yesterday got kind of glossed
over pretty quick, huh?

Your hearing.

That was a big deal for the three of you.

Yeah.

It was.

And you had that whole
road trip together, too.

It's, uh...

It's a lot.

No matter how old we get or, uh...

How wrong for each other they are,

we all want our parents to be together.

You know, it's a fantasy.

It's a naive little kid fantasy.

I have it still.

My parents...

Yeah, my parents have
been divorced forever.

So maybe you do, too.

Lux, it's okay.

See, you spent so much time taking
care of everyone, being the parent.

Wanting them together...

maybe it means, for the first
time, you've learned to be the kid.

Their kid.

Yeah, you guys are a family.

Whether Cate and I get married or not.

All I want is to be a part of it.

Uh, look, if this is all
too much for you, um...

We can wait.

We can postpone it 'cause...

if you're not ready, neither am I.

Shouldn't you talk to Cate?

If this is what you want, uh...

She should probably hear it from you.

Hey.

You okay?

No.

I'm not okay at all.

Are you okay?

No.

You told Baze to be honest with you.

And... I want to be, too.

I wouldn't be putting "Baze" and
"honesty" in the same sentence.

I went over there last night.

Yeah, I... I know.

He doesn't love me, Lux.

No, that's not true.

Oh. Well, that's what he told me.

Cate, he does. He told me.

I... I know he does.

Lux, he doesn't.

You know, my problem
is not what Baze feels

or what Baze doesn't
feel... my problem, it's me.

You know, my problem is always me.

You know, how am I
supposed to be marrying Ryan

when some part of me,
some... some sick, twisted,

masochistic part of me has some...

Has even an ounce of love
for a guy that doesn't even

have the guts to admit
that he loves me back.

You're not twisted.

You're just...

Like me.

Holding on to a fantasy
that doesn't exist.

You went to him last
night for answers, and...

You got 'em.

When Baze didn't tell
you that he loved you,

he told you all that you needed to know.

And you don't have to beat yourself up

about some microscopic feeling
that... that's been there

since long before Ryan.

It's not having feelings for...

for two people that matters. It's...

it's what you choose to do about them.

Now, I am the last person...

who wants to say this...

Believe me, but..

Baze...

is never gonna be the guy
that you want him to be.

And thinking that he is...

that's fantasy.

Like me wishing that...

that you and Baze would get married and...

and the three of us would
live happily ever after.

You and me, we want something that's real.

And what you have with Ryan...

is real.

Thank you.

Hey. I want to talk to you.

No. No more talking. We're done.

No, no, no, wait, wait.
Nate, wait a second.

There's no beers. There's
no turtles to race.

There is nothing that you could say

that is gonna fix things between us.

I... I don't know, okay?

I don't know why I would
rather berate you...

Than tell you I miss you.

I don't know...

Why I yell at you for
not being in my life...

Instead of...

admitting that I don't
know how to be in yours.

Maybe...

Lux was right, what she said
to me when I first met her.

I just want you to be me.

And I have to, uh...

Accept that you're not.

And so do you.

I love you.

I love you.

Nate.

Don't make the same mistakes I did.

Don't let...

whatever I said...

Or... or... haven't said...

keep you from what you want.

Hey, hey, hey.

Hmm?

D... don't wait till
it's too late to say it.

If you love Cate...

Tell her.

Thank you.

Well, Alice is corralling everyone.

Abby called to say walk slow.

And Ryan...

wanted me to give you this.

It's a contract.

"I, Ryan Thomas, do solemnly declare..."

Declare, I'm not going anywhere,

not in five years, not
in ten, not in a hundred.

I love you, babe.

Now, get out here, and
let's do this thing.

When I was a little girl,

I thought I understood how things worked.

Girls grew up and married boys.

Fathers walk their
daughters down the aisle.

There was an order to first came love,

then came marriage,
then came an overpriced,

ridiculously complicated baby carriage.

But when I grew up, I realized
that's not necessarily how it worked.

Girls can marry girls,
and boys can marry boys.

Mothers can walk their
daughters down the aisle.

And kids can come
before love and marriage.

It's taken me 32 years to
figure out who I've wanted to be.

And what I've learned is

it's a choice that you make every day

that leads you to where you want to be

and who you want to be it with.

answering machine: it's
Cate. Leave a message.

What is happening?

It needs appreciating
what's happened in your life

to bring you to this point,
and then letting go of it.

It means being willing to
commit, with no guarantees.

It means knowing that
in accepting reality,

you just might get the
fantasy you always dreamed of.

And, Ryan, you are everything

that I have always dreamed about.

I never pictured myself standing up here,

in a dress, in a church,
making these promises.

I promise you that I will live every
day wanting to be worthy of you,

appreciating all that you are and
everything that you've shown me.

I'm not going anywhere, either.

Unless it's with you.

You know, not too long
ago, another little girl,

who's not so little anymore,

she taught me that I could say yes

to the greatest thing
that's ever happened to me.

She taught me that I
could say yes to love.

Ryan... now, today...

I do.

And now by the powers
vested in me, by God,

by the state of Oregon, and
before these witnesses...

I now pronounce you husband and wife.

You may kiss your bride.
