They say people look
like their dogs.

But when you're
in a garden club,

you're more like
the flowers you plant.

Oh, Alice!

Those are going back
to the store, sweetie.

But we always do geraniums.

Well, if we want a shot at
winning back the cup this year,

we need to go more exotic.

If I was a flower,
I think I'd be a geranium.

Sure, they might be
boring in a garden,

but that's because they're
meant to run wild in a meadow.

♪ Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah

♪ Let us sing

The worst thing
you can do to a geranium?

Plant one
where it doesn't belong,

because eventually someone
just walks all over it.

Gosh, you should see
this thing, Alice.

Coyote V-8 with dual
Bilstein shocks.

Just ask her for the money.

It is the exact '68 Bronco
I restored with my dad.

If anybody owes you,
it's your ex.

Our landscaper, Brett,
is a dandelion.

Good thing about dandelions?

Come on.
Let's see Mommy.

They can grow
just about anywhere.

They're built to survive...

Unless they catch
their wives pollinating

with another flower.

Then they shrivel up,
and all that's left is a wish.

I'm going to murder Marilyn.

Unless I get to her first.

She just told me to plant
twice as many tulips

because we're Dutch
all of a sudden

and living in Holland.

Like I haven't had
a plan in place.

I mean,
who does she think worked

with the landscape architect
for three months?

- Not her.
- Not her.

This isn't some Vegas buffet
where you just stick the tacos

right next to the Chinese food.

Our vice president,
Catherine, is a zinnia.

She is the hardest-working
flower in the garden.

Zinnias bloom heavily,
regardless of climate.

All they ask for is a little
sunlight from their husband.

But they seldom get
what they need.

So we started in 1952

as housewives
who just wanted an excuse

to get out and drink gimlets
before their husbands got home.

Love.

Oh, we've also won
the Southeastern Michigan

Gardening Cup
ten years in a row--well,

until Bloomfield Hills cheated

with their genetically
engineered magnolias.

So what percentage would you
say is actual, like, gardening?

Most of it.

- Hmm.
- Why?

Because I'm more
into the gimlet part.

Might, uh, want to wear
the old Louboutins next time.

Oh.

These are the old ones.

Our newest volunteer,
Birdie,

is a classic
lily of the valley.

♪ Let us sing, let us sing

Invasive, wild,
and without boundaries.

♪ Birds and bees
and television ♪

They're notorious
in Grosse Pointe...

♪ Many little silly rhymes

♪ Things forgotten
lost their time ♪

♪ Telephones and silly games

And extremely toxic...

To everything
that gets in its path.

Oh, God! Oh, God! Oh, God!

Ugh.

Women like her don't
volunteer voluntarily.

Well, maybe she's, uh,
got a real appreciation

for Mother Nature.

I heard she got sentenced
to, like, a million hours

of community service.

She did kill
an innocent fountain.

Tennis club
kicked her out too.

Oh, that's like getting
banned from church.

Mm.

Girl's getting
eaten by her own.

This is not going
to end well for her.

Eh.

What's the worst
that could happen?

♪ Hope

Here's what
they don't tell you

when you join a garden club.

Once you mix a bunch
of different flowers together,

they all may look perfect
on the surface,

but you never really know
what's growing underneath.

So this isn't just
a home, my friends.

It's a work of art.

♪ Ooh, play, yeah

♪ Ooh, play

See that?

You think shower, right?

Boom, steam room.

And in the closet,
we have all custom woodwork,

antique deco accents.

You'd think
you're on Rodeo Drive

and not in the Midwest.

- Wow.
- Right this way.

And that's
the $3.5 million tour.

It's gorgeous.

Think it over.

It's going to go fast.

♪ I don't even know

Seems promising.

Never going to happen.

But I know one deal
we can still close.

♪ No, no, no

♪ No, no, no

♪ I don't even know

♪ No, no, no

It's from France.

We should go to Paris.

Like, now?

Whenever.

You're not leaving
your family.

Why not?

We work
for your father-in-law.

So?

We could lose everything.

Maybe it'd be worth it.

We'd hurt a lot of people.

Hold that thought.

What's this for?

Every time
your husband can't see

what makes you so special,

know there's someone who does.

I hope you find your dog,
Ms. Morris.

We all get older,
but the books stay the same.

That's why they're classics.

Hard to know with poetry, though.

What can I do for you,
Mrs. Hollister?

I didn't totally understand
Peyton's grade on the final.

What about it?

How anyone could get
a D on a poem?

"Watchin' all the snakes,
curvin' all the fakes.

"Phone never on,
I don't conversate.

"I don't compromise,

I just penetrate."

It's beautiful.

It's a Kendrick Lamar song.

I'm sure he didn't know that.

The album won a Grammy

and a Pulitzer.

Peyton's having
a difficult time this year.

I'm sorry to hear that.

You know, with the whole
lacrosse hazing thing?

Wasn't he the hazer?

Two sides to every story.

Unfortunately,
not in this case.

Let's be honest.

It's not like my son's going
to be the next poet laureate.

Peyton's smart enough
to do whatever he wants--

if he follows the rules.

But aren't rules
sort of subjective?

Kind of like poetry.

Now I don't understand.

Peyton's going
to get into Michigan.

Not if he plagiarizes.

Where did you go to college?

Does it matter?

I just want to make sure that
you understand what's at stake.

So you'll get
the next one, babe.

I just thought
I had a shot this time.

Should I make a salad?

- Uh, sure.
- Oh.

We don't have any lettuce.

I would have cooked.

I got stuck grading papers.

So is this another
New York writing job?

Uh, yeah,
third rejection this month.

Maybe the universe is
sending you a message.

What message is that, Patty?

She's a really
good writer, Mom.

Of course she is.

Just those fancy jobs don't go
to the best writers.

Who do they go to?

It's all connections.

It's just like Grosse Pointe,

only here, we can help.

I'm still not joining
the country club.

We're just saying,
life doesn't have to be

such a struggle.

Well, it's kind of
what artists do.

Mm-hmm.

They paint restaurant signs?

Pays the rent, Dad.

OK, stop.

Should we tell them?

I thought you wanted
to wait till dessert.

Tell us what?

Our rental property
is available

at the end of the month.

Oh, wow!

Mm. Huh.

Um--

This would be free.

And we'd be your neighbors.

See? Everybody wins.

Now, it's four bedrooms,

two and a half baths.

We don't need
that much space.

A huge backyard.

Put a whole putting green
back there.

- We don't golf.
- Or a trampoline.

- We don't jump.
- A swing set.

Not again, Mom.

Good schools.

It's just not the right time.

Grandma and Grandpa
would be just a hop, skip,

and a jump away.
- That's right.

I'm not sure I want kids.

Yet.

Of course.

No pressure.

I'm just saying,
there's a lot of things

I want to do before that.

I felt the same
when I was your age.

So you get it?

The thing is,

dreamers don't get far.

They just get hurt.

Appreciate it.

So any news
on your missing dog?

I think I have
an image problem.

Could start by having
solid food for lunch.

Does everyone hate me?

I don't.

OK, but I pay you to lie.

This happens
to a lot of clients.

Keep your head down,
do your community service

like the judge said--

And then what?

Then we rebuild you
from the ground up.

How?

By giving the world
a reason to like you again.

Yeah. How?

You into cleft palates?

I'm not against them.

Great.

We'll do a college scholarship.

For a kid
with a cleft palate?

They're all the rage
on social media.

This isn't about
trying to trend.

No, it's about
getting your life back.

What if it's not worth
going back to?

My job's to control
how you look, honey,

not how you feel.

Mm.

So why are we drinking here?

I, uh, got some news today.

Oh, my God.

Did Melissa give you
money for the cars?

Oh, no, no, no.

Not yet.

Oh, hey, if you're trying
to get me drunk,

I'm already there.

Good.

Uh...

some guys were
putting in a, um--

a sprinkler system
at the Murphys,

you know, by the park.

OK.

They, uh--they--
they found Molly.

Wait.

Where is she?

The Parks Department
said they'd, um,

make whatever arrangements
you wanted.

No.

I know.

So she got hit
by a car or something?

Attacked by an animal?

Just say it.

Um, someone...

shot her.

My dog was murdered?

Molly would smell this
a mile away.

Every dog will smell this,
like police dogs!

Make her stop!

All right, lady,
listen to me.

You're going to take
all of that crazy,

and you are going to put it
someplace else, way down deep.

Can you please do that for me?

I don't want to go to jail.

That is not going to happen.

And how do you know?

When Marilyn was elected
president over me,

I had a mental health
crisis, OK?

She drove her Range Rover
straight through the garden.

Did donuts in the peonies.

Yeah, and the tulips.

Point is,
I barely knew these guys,

and they helped me
replant everything.

We all have
each other's backs.

First rule of garden club.

Bleach.

You know, for the smell.

That's a good idea.

But what are we going
to do about that?

As president
of the garden society,

I'd like to call
this meeting to order.

Let's start
with a moment of silence

for our extended family member,

Alice's dear companion
of so many years, Molly.

Yeah.

Oh, hey,
is it cool if we park

in the loading zone on Sunday?

I'm sure it's fine.
Excuse me.

Can I sit there?
Excuse me.

Why is this man trying
to hold my hand?

Someone put a bullet
in my dog.

Maybe it was, like, a hunting
accident or something.

Because it's
golden retriever season?

It was point blank.

Jesus.

Shh.

Maybe they were trying
to send a message.

Who would do
something that cruel?

Try any bitch
in Junior League.

Amen.

OK, so, uh,
let's talk Winter Gala.

OK, here's where we're at.

I've chosen night jasmine

for the boutonnieres
and corsages.

Oh, oh, that reminds me--

Antonio needs to know
how many tuxedos

to donate for the croupiers.

- Ten, one per table.
- OK.

Ooh, and Village Chocolates
is going to do

these cute little truffles
in the shape of poker chips.

I ran into Nancy
at pickleball this morning,

and she offered
to do dice cake pops.

Oh!

Are we doing a poker theme?

Monaco.

Oh.

Very chic, very elegant,
very 007.

Oh, Sandra, we still need
a limo service.

So can you ask your brother--

You want people to go, right?

We plan on topping
last year's fundraiser goal.

Not with poker night,
you won't.

- Monaco.
- Whatever.

I'm just saying,
I've been to, like, 5 billion

poker night charity things.

Do you have a better idea?

What about something like

Hot Rocks and Frocks?

Oh, what's that?

We partner with Tiffany's,

get them to design
a special pendant

in the shape of a flower--

because, you know,
it's a garden club--

Oh, we could play the entire

Rolling Stones
"Hot Rocks" album.

Yes!

And maybe we dress
like '80s Euro Brits.

Like, wear leather jackets.

Totally! Yes!

Ugh, it would be so rad.

And who wouldn't want
to go to that event, right?

OK, everyone,
everyone, calm down.

That is so sweet,
but we are very much

down the road on Monaco, so...

Then why'd you ask
if I have anything better?

For next year.

Oh, OK.

You're one of those.

- Excuse me?
- Can't control your own life,

so you join a club like this
to control everyone else's.

OK.

Going forward,
if you guys could please

raise your hands
before speaking,

I think we would get
way more done.

All right, moving on.

Does anyone have
any ideas for venue?

Oh.

Hey! Hey!

Hold up.

Forget it, OK?

Poker night is fine.

No, no, no.

Where'd you get that bracelet?

Oh. It was a gift.

From who?

Some guy.

What's his name?

Get off my jock.

Just tell me his name.

There he goes.

He's, um--hmm--

he's my colleague.

It's just some appointment D.

He's married.

OK.

What, are you a morality cop?

You know, just because
you can have anything you want

doesn't mean you should.

♪ That's what they say

Can I see Mommy now?

Yep, let's go.

Hey. Nice, buddy.

- Remember to snap your wrist.
- Great throw, though.

But snap your wrist
if you want to make it spiral.

OK, so these are
for your house.

They are all washed
and folded and ready to go.

What was wrong
with all the plaid ones

they made us buy?

Oh, we already
took care of that.

Oh, no.
I'll Venmo you.

Oh, don't be silly.

By the way, we need
to swap days this week.

Uh, what for?

Well, Connor's going
to speak at Zach's Career Day,

and we just want to be able
to take the kids

out for dinner afterwards.

Just thought I'd jump
on that grenade for you, pal.

Well, I--I could do it.
I could do Career Day.

- Uh, we already signed up.
- Yeah.

Then you wouldn't have
to switch days.

Oh, don't be silly.

Would you quit saying that?

I'm not a child.

Uh,

I mean, you are the one
that always says

that working at the garden
center isn't a career.

Well, I--I am the manager.

But it's not exactly
what you aspired to be.

Fine, but the only reason
I'm doing it

is because you boned me
on our deal

when you started boning him.

What deal?

We kind of agreed...

Promised, Melissa.

That he would put me
through law school

and take care of the family,
and then

when I got a job,
it would be his turn.

And I finally have
some opportunities

to get my car restoration
business off the ground.

So what?
This is a shakedown?

We had an agreement.

Unfortunately, an agreement's

not the same
as a contract, Brett.

- Oh, I got it!
- I got it!

No, mine!
- What?

Aw. OK.

You see
what your dad did there?

You gotta snap
your wrist, Dad.

You guys must think
I'm total garbage.

Hey.

No one's judging.

He wanted to blend
our families.

Stepdads can be
real buttholes.

Just, none of this
makes any sense.

That's why
you need to talk to him.

OK.

Uh, maybe now is
not the best time.

Hey, honey.
When did you lose your tooth?

It fell out at Mommy's.

Huh.

Whoo!

Want to buy Daddy one of those
with your tooth fairy money?

Connor already put it
in her 529 plan.

What?

That's lame!

Mom said he's the smartest.

We should listen to him.

Oh, yeah?

Well, Connor doesn't
know everything.

both: Whoo!

Your house is fab.

Thanks.

He got all the furniture.

Huh.

Why don't you buy more?

Keep thinking I'll sell.

Well, uh, we both know
a great realtor.

Oh.

That makes so much more sense.

Yeah.

You were right about me.

I'm an even bigger mess.

At least you're not
cheating on your husband.

Why don't you leave him?

It's not that easy.

Gets easier with practice.
Trust me.

I've got kids.

Yeah, but how could you
live like that?

I've got kids.

I don't understand.

They are what keep me from
driving my car into a fountain.

How come guys like Gary
always think

they can get away with it?

Because they always do.

Maybe they shouldn't.

Yeah, the original '67 had
problems with overheating,

so it was known as "The Turd."

I bought a piece of junk?

Uh-uh, opposite.

Carroll Shelby redesigned
the chassis

to shoehorn in
a water-cooled 427.

This thing is a beast.

I need to pee.

One sec, baby.

But you just got to know
some of Shelby's old tricks.

- Yay, Daddy!
- Wow! Awesome!

I'm sure Connor knew
all that, right?

I have no idea who Connor is,
but I really appreciate this.

- Ah.
- Can we get lunch now?

Oh, hold on.

- Oh, my pleasure, man.
- Come on.

There's got to be some way
I can thank you.

Hey, Ms. Morris,
you, uh--you got a second?

Your mom send you?

She's a lot, right?

Comes from a good place.

Yeah.

So there was a reason
I did what I did.

It was easier?

The song moved me.

It's not honest, Peyton.

All right.

Well, long as we're
being honest,

why'd you really give me the D?

The D is for Disappointment.

D is for Dick.

We both know it.
- Excuse me?

You just think
that I'm a dick,

which I guess a lot of people
would agree with--

That's not true.

Look.

You got to be careful
when you make things personal.

What is that
supposed to mean?

You know...

karma and stuff.

How's that for honest?

OK.

Here.

Hold still.

It's like school pictures.

Minus the emo bangs.

Wait a minute.

There's a leaf.

♪ Jingle bells

We should go down
to the railyard.

To smash it on the tracks?

To put it on a freight train
so it seems,

you know, like its owner
is still alive.

Yeah, it could buy us
some time.

Until the cops find it
somewhere in South Dakota

and know dumbasses like us
tried to ditch it.

Fine, then a passenger train

like it was
accidentally dropped.

Who's going
to buy that ticket

in front of all the cameras?

Any decisions?

Uh, we'll take
a round of Coneys.

Who eats chili dogs
for breakfast?

We do.

So--so there's a receipt?

Oh, like an alibi.

Mm-hmm.

Wait, where's the phone?

And where's Birdie?

I don't think she gets
the first rule of garden club.

Mm.

How's that scone?

Mmm. Dope.

So did your guidance
counselor explain everything?

Mm, not really, no.

Oh, OK. Uh...

Well, first off, congrats.

You're the very first recipient

of the Birdie Bradley
scholarship

for, you know, achievements.

Dope.

You'll get a full ride to
the college of your choosing.

Dope.

Do you have any questions?

Uh, no, but thank you.

Oh, uh, do you want
another scone?

Or they have really great
hot chocolate here.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Did you talk
to Victoria Farber

about this, uh, thing?

Who--who is she?

Only the smartest nerd
in our whole school.

Will probably invent
the cure to, like, asthma

or poverty or something.

She sounds boring.

Yeah.

Well, she's a better
investment than me.

All right, real talk?

I'm just trying
to keep a kid like you

from making the same
bad decisions I did.

Like what?

I went to Daytona
for spring break.

OK, yeah, but, I mean,

everyone from my school
goes there.

In a stolen ice cream truck?

Also got pregnant
in 10th grade.

Yeah, well,
I'm not dating anyone.

Neither was I.

I still don't get
why you picked me.

Because the Victoria Farbers
of the world,

they are always going
to get what they want.

Now it's your turn.

Dope.

- He is rude, disrespectful...
- Yeah.

That little brat's
had it out for me

since he started my class.

Doesn't mean
he's a dog killer.

I have, what,
a couple hundred students

coming through my room
every year,

and for the most part,
they're all just regular kids.

But every now and then--
and you know this, Dave--

you get a Peyton.

This is the kid
who duct taped a freshman

to the lacrosse goalpost.

- Attempted murder!
- Fits the profile. Yeah.

Which is why
you got to expel him.

I can't.

Well, he can't just
get away with it.

With parents like his,
he can.

He shot Molly, Dave.

It wasn't the county that
paid for a new lacrosse field.

Oh, come on, that's so gross!

Or our new auditorium.

Do you hear yourself?

Or the robotics lab.

You are the principal!

I'm really sorry about Molly,

but we work for them, Alice.

They don't have to play
by the rules.

Almost showtime.

Still got 20 minutes.

And what will we do
with the other 18?

Use them to focus on you.

And what about
Birdie Bradley?

Who?

Girl you bought
the exact same bracelet for?

You and I were on a break.

I can't just be
some accessory to you,

like that fridge.

You're a sub-zero, babe.

Those last forever.

I just wanted to help.

Look, we'll take the money.

I thought you might.

But you agreed to no contact.

My parents did.

I know women like you
don't normally hear no.

I was 16.

But this is not a road
you want to go down.

He doesn't know
he's adopted, does he?

Is, uh, everything OK here?

Oh, my God, this is crazy.

I'm the author, OK?

I'm the father.

We're done here.

This lady's writing
in the books.

I'll just pay for these.

So where are you going?

Have you seen
my blue bike shorts?

The hotel's got
a fitness center.

- Where?
- Dubai.

OK, no.

You promised Dakota
you would help him

with his Pinewood Derby car.

Tools are in the basement.

I'm not a Boy Scout.

Owning a global security firm
means I gotta be global.

Addie's parent-teacher
conferences are Tuesday.

Then go be the parent
at the school

that I have to go to Dubai
to pay for.

OK?

Yeah, finances,
the lease records,

whatever dirt you can dig up.

Well, I'm going to need a lot
to take the kids.

Good morning, everyone.

Hope you, uh, slept off
all that donated champagne.

So Monaco Under the Stars
was the biggest success

in the history
of the Garden Society.

I guess Lady Luck
was on our side.

So let's take a look

at how we're going to use
the proceeds.

- Where have you been?
- Don't worry about it.

I'm going to worry.
I have kids.

What did you do
with the phone?

Our hands full
with the koi pond.

- Koi pond?
- Yeah.

It's going to double
as a reflecting pool,

which will make us a shoo-in
for next season's cup.

What about the garden?

We'll have to dig it up.

Uh, how much?

All of it.

Come on, I'll show you.

Here's what you learn
when you plant a garden.

I don't want to go to jail.

All that beauty is just
a happy accident,

a random mix
of insects rotting

and compost decaying.

So to make a garden grow,

something has to die.
