Hi, welcome back. I'm Dr. Tess Coleman, and this is Rebelling with Respect.

Today on the podcast, we are talking about a relationship

dynamic that is very close to my heart.

Grand co-parenting. When my daughter Anna chose to

become a single mom, it changed our family forever.

As a grandma, I was able to step up and help her.

Harper, this is your 30-minute warning that we're leaving for school.

Arp, this is now your 20-minute warning. 10 minutes.

Yes, confirm the recording sessions, but know

that I know she can sell out more than the Greek.

And yes, I know how many seats there are.

Harper, I really want to respect your space, but I'm

curious as to why you're not out here yet.

You have five minutes. Being someone that your loved

one can lean on is the most important relationship there is.

Ryan, I'm getting so good at this.

No. No, no, no. Oh, it's in record. Hi, Mom. Now's not a great time. I know, but I finished my podcast early, so I'm offering you to drop

off. No, it's okay. I've got everything under control. Harper, you had to be up 10 minutes ago. Prepare to be triggered. 5, 6, 5, 6, 7, 8.

Harper!

Let's catch one more. Dude, these waves are unreal. I love our lives.

Yo, are we skipping first period? Shoot, we gotta go.

I'm literally ready. Barely. Barely. I made your favorite lunch. How was Pickleball yesterday? Did you beat him? We say annihilated. Mom, I told you I could take her. I know, sweetheart, but I saw

in your stories that you were working at the studio late, and so I decided to take her. You know, it would be healthy for you to unfollow me, and I work late all the time. I can still take her.

Anna, let's pause and reframe. When you decided to be a single mom, I

told you I would support you 100%. Well, this is me supporting you 100%.

Hey, you know what? I'm coming, too. We can both do drop-off this morning. Mom. No, go on. Okay, go. Just

let them go. Okay, you're not going. Mom. You're gonna go. You're not. No, he's gonna go. I'm gonna go!

So what's up, kiddo? Nothing.

Okay, spill it. Alright, my new lab partner is the absolute worst. She's the new girl, here for

the year. I mean, ugh, do you think she's so much better than everyone because she's British?

Which, she has to remind you of every five seconds, like no one's ever been from England before. So

my dad opened his third restaurant in Paris, and that's how I met my French boyfriend, Philippe Henri.

Ugh, Philippe Henri. He's French and a model. You've seriously been to Paris Fashion Week?

Anna Wintour scowled at me. Seriously? What's Paris like? Oh, it's lovely. I go all the time.

Ignore the British girl after this year. You won't have to see her anymore. Nice advice from a therapist. Look, I'm not a

therapist. I'm her grandma. Alright, well, this has been real. Please drive away like you don't know me. Make your choices!

You are so lame. Lame! Are you ready for laboratory today? Shut your mouth.

Fun bonus round today. Never trust an atom. Why?

Because they make up everything. You're all day, folks.

You're supposed to put your goggles on before we start.

The goggles are giving minion. Yeah, we're not like minions. So no thank you.

But they're perfect for you. It's like the Revolutionary War was for nothing. Today,

remember, these are dangerous chemicals. Maybe we should use not dangerous chemicals?

How about you do your actual share of the work instead of doodling? It's called designing. The

measurements have to be precise. This experiment is so simple. In the UK, we did this in primary school.

The only reason people think you're smart is because of your obnoxious accent. At least

people think I'm clever. What's that supposed to mean? You're smart. Figure it out.

Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no.

That was not precise! That was not precise at all!

Principal Walden! I don't know, Mo. I don't know why the principal called me. But I'm here,

so you don't need to come. You know what? I can't find what I was going to tell you about.

I have to go. Oh, I'm sorry. It's totally my fault.

No, no, no. I wasn't looking where I was going.

Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah, I don't know how to turn this thing off.

Yeah, I'm not sure you... I think... It's off.

Oh, thank you.

No problem.

Thank you.

My daughter just started here, and I admit I'm quite lost.

Would you happen to know where the chemistry lab is?

This is serious. Someone could have been injured. I'm sure it was just an accident.

It seems to me a misunderstanding. Harper seems so... lovely.

Oh, Lily seems so genuine and kind.

Wow. I certainly never had two parents come in

here and be this attractive. I meant attentive.

Lily and I are definitely going to reflect on how to do better.

This is all Harper and I are going to think about.

We're very, very committed. Especially as a single parent household.

Oh, us too. We're single parent.

Great.

I mean, I'm a single parent.

Great. Yes. Same. Me too.

Single.

Single parent. Guilty.

I'm single too. Oh my god, should we meet up?

Perhaps our daughters should get to know each other.

Maybe like Wednesdays after six, get a little wine, talk about these badass kids.

Harper would really like that.

Over dinner?

Dinner sounds perfect.

I'm on it.

Petit trois? Yes. Can I have a table for two? Private. In the back.

Do you guys have any allergies?

No.

No, no allergies.

Okay, you came here early. Spill it.

There's just no time. Bachelorette party, dance rehearsal,

final fitting, rehearsal lunch, and oh, my wedding.

You have a lot on your plate. Big day, deep breath.

There's so much to do before Sunday.

Let us know how we can help.

Maybe someone can help me memorize my wedding vows.

How about this? I'll help you. I, Anna, take you, Eric, a man that I have been dating for

six months but might uproot my entire life and move to London where we have no family.

An avocado costs $11.

Perhaps you should add something about my undying patience for teenage rebellion.

Spot on about the avocado.

Oh, that wasn't about you. It was actually about my mom's other British fiancé.

She's a comedian today. Just today, though. Right, Harper?

I have been practicing my fist dance.

Wait till we see what I am cooking.

Ooh, I see what you did there.

I missed you since yesterday.

Ew.

I had my pastry chef make sticky toffee pudding pavlova for the bake sale.

Just what every teenager loves. Pavlova.

Agreed. Teenagers these days. Sophisticated about it.

Yes, well, this pastry chef was up at 4 a.m.

baking old-fashioned focaccia cookies from scratch with no staff.

Four hours? For cookies? I think we need to get you a staff.

They just needed to cool.

Stand up straight. Good posture.

Okay.

And do you know how bad this is for you?

Seriously. Eat this.

Say thanks, Mom.

I saw that, Harper.

Hey, well, we wouldn't want to be off schedule, innit?

Still.

Hi, Lil.

It's Lily.

Lily, back seat.

Can't Gramps just take me?

No, this will be good bonding for everyone.

I bond best with Lil Eve when we're not around

each other and I don't have to look at her face.

I love sitting next to you. It reminds me that I'm amazing.

Alright, alright.

I got you.

You got me.

Good morning.

We're ready to go. Good morning.

Car's all set. Up the coast. We're one.

Yeah?

Yeah. Yeah, what do you think?

I'm not saying I don't not want to go on the trip.

I'm just saying that Anna's wedding has put me behind

with my patients, which has been very disruptive.

And, and of course, they keep adding dates to my book

tour, which, you know, it's not out of my control.

And I'm just saying I need a little time.

Look, girls, we're trying to hear you. Just try and hear us.

Oh, no. I hear you trying to pull me away from my family and my friends.

I mean, who even gets to surf before school in London?

You can surf on the river Thames.

Really?

No, you dipstick.

Girls.

It's a city.

Okay, girls, girls. It's our decision.

Eric and I will do what's right for the family.

Family?

Yes, this family.

Don't say it like that.

Don't say it. Don't you tell me what to say and how to say it.

How about relax? Don't be so dramatic.

Lily, stop casting.

What?

You don't even know what that means.

I don't want to look at your face anymore.

You know what that means, right?

I think I know what it means.

Yeah, I knew you did.

That explains why you suck at this.

For the big sale today, every people must attend a free option.

Please don't slam the...

A red dot free option.

Well, at least we don't have to bring them to our immigration interview tomorrow.

Don't be stressed. They'll come around.

Yeah, let them take all the time they need.

Oh, he sounds great. I'll be back in a bit.

Thank you.

Oh, send those to the tour manager, please.

How's it going?

Oh, good morning.

Actually, it's literally not. It's a bad morning. It's a very bad morning.

Not for me personally, but for you.

Why? What happened?

Trevor dumped Ella, and he already released a song about it.

Ella!

Oh.

Yeah, and he dumped her in a text.

Yeah, I got this.

Okay, so Trevor wrote a song, but I'm sure it's not as bad as you think.

It's called Better Than The Last One. It's about me.

Okay, but that title, it could be about anyone.

It says, parentheses, Ella.

Ella, let's just focus on the songs that you're going to perform on Saturday.

Performing? I can't sing those songs.

I wrote them about Trevor. I put my heart and soul into them.

No, a 44-year-old Dutch music producer wrote those songs.

This is a hit. I can't even stop moving my body.

My chest is just jarring.

What is that? Did you learn that from Oprah?

Join the environmental club.

Shouldn't these be more prominently featured?

Bon Appetit literally profiled my dad's restaurant for these pieces.

I think they're nice and prominent over here.

They're gourmet.

They're soggy-bottomed.

You know what? I think I see the perfect spot for yours.

Dude, those were grams.

Come on.

You know what? I think I know the perfect place to put this.

You wouldn't dare.

Yeah.

Perfect.

Nice caramelization.

Come on.

Who started the food fight?

Congratulations, you two.

You just got everybody in here in school suspension.

Is this key lime pie?

Yeah, I baked it fresh this morning.

Well, you gotta take me to the emergency room

because I'm very allergic to key lime pie.

Is this you?

Oh.

That's not supposed to be in there.

Was it for Pink Slip?

I saw them at the Troubadour last year.

Could I sing your song this weekend?

Oh, no. You have way better stuff than something I wrote.

I wrote that after I left Pink Slip anyway.

Okay.

I got this.

Yes, you got this.

Opening your world tour at the Wiltern is a big show for you.

Huge.

For the both of us.

The girls are struggling with this transition.

And just take it from a parent who has been in your shoes.

I know, Des. Between losing Lily's mom and moving here...

Yes, and being ripped away from the home she grew up in.

I'm sorry, are we talking about Lily or Harper?

Harper!

Lily!

Dad.

Hey.

What the... What's going on?

Darling.

No one's hurt.

I went to the school.

Please, let me just handle this.

Anna, there's been an incident at school between the girls. It was really bad.

What bad? How bad?

I got this.

Girls, apologize to each other now, please.

Honey, forced apologies is never a way to resolve conflicts.

But... We need to make space for them to express how they feel.

Harper, how do you feel?

I feel...

Sorry.

And Lily, how do you feel?

I feel... Sorry, too.

That's great.

Great?

Sorry that my future step-sister is a...

Oh, I'm sorry that my future step-sister is a... Oh, so am I.

Really?

New plan. No more holding space for feelings.

You two are gonna have a lovely time at my bachelorette tonight.

You're gonna get along because we're a family and families love each other.

And for that, Harper, just for that look, you

two earned yourself a sleepover at Graham's.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Why am I the punishment?

I'm the fun one.

I have board games.

Mom.

I have Parcheesi.

And you're gonna braid each other's hair in

a non-cultural appropriating way and like it.

What is Parcheesi?

It's a game.

You move around the board, you shake the dice.

Remember the sound of the dice?

Oh, it's amazing.

You get these dice and you shake them in your hand.

And then you move around the board.

Oh, Graham.

It's gonna be fun.

I also emboggle.

You stay on your side and I'll stay on mine.

Gladly.

Harper.

Look, I know you think I don't get it, but I do.

And it's still just gonna be you and me.

If you go to London... I'm staying here with Graham's.

She said it was cool.

She what?

Hey, Anna.

Did you remove me as Harper's secondary contact?

Did you tell Harper that she can stay here with you if we decided to move to London?

Are you serious right now?

Whoa, are you serious?

Okay, okay.

What is serious is that you and Eric need to keep the girls in Los Angeles.

Lily just needs some guidance.

The only guidance I need from you is to show me to the other bathroom.

I'm very sorry, Lily. I just...

You don't know anything about what I need or how I feel.

Or the fashion school.

Back home that I want to go to.

Oh, yep.

Just you and me, Mom.

Great.

Welcome, everyone, to the bachelorette party of our girl, Anna!

Oh, Mom, for real?

Dude, I haven't changed.

So funny.

Oh, I remember that six-pack.

Yeah, who is that?

So handsome.

That is Jake.

Your mom's first love.

And her first ride on a motorcycle.

I like to ride in Jake's motorcycle.

Jake also had a thing for tests.

For Gramps?

Alright, okay. Enough humiliation for tonight.

Harper, baby! I made you a plate!

Here you go. You're too young to be sad. Come on.

Well, being young is overrated, Mom.

Heat will be fine.

Use the toilet seat.

Lily.

You know, Anna lost her father around the same age that you lost your mother.

And then she had to deal with my wedding to Ryan.

Cool.

And then you add to that the complications of moving.

I'm here for you.

Sincerely.

With all due respect, Dr. Coleman, you're not my gran or my therapist.

So while I get you merged for keeping us in L.A., I don't need your help.

Oh no! We used to be so cool!

Hey, I'm still cool.

I look amazing. You're very cool. That song you sent me was sick.

Thank you. I wish I had more time to write, but

now all I do is listen to parenting podcasts.

Well, I'm sorry for ruining your exciting rock star life.

Harper, wait, I was just... Wait, I wasn't serious.

Look, I gave up performing, but I have to go to a lawyer party.

You can't leave me.

I don't think I belong here.

Just let me handle this. I've got it.

Harper!

Anna, honey, you just need to pause and rephrase.

Thanks, Mom.

What? What did I do?

I was handling it, and you completely undermined me as a parent.

I was trying to help you.

Well, your help isn't helpful.

Well, that's not very nice to say.

Did a great and mysterious Madam Jen interest you ladies in a psychic reading?

Uh, no, thank you very much, but right now is not the... Time?

It's just not really our... Thing?

This will all be over soon if you just...

Go with it.

Go with it, yes, exactly.

No, no.

Come on in, yes, yes.

Let's come away.

Anybody else interested?

I do discounts for bigger groups, okay?

Okay.

And that's how I lost my spot at the Largemont Farmer's Market.

But I did get a table by the lids and free milk counter inside of the Starbucks.

So I am a life coach, but I also do Reiki.

If you notice, I have several business cards because

I actually have a business card making business.

So that's the card for that.

I can put quotes on there that I can just make up for you.

If you want something inspirational, for example, I can make up a quote.

Like, um...

Live your life.

Gosh dang it.

Okay.

So here's... Oh, and, and, and, and...

I'm going to read your palms now.

Oh, really?

There they go.

Anybody?

Okay.

Okay.

Smells like you had some appetizers. Were they good?

Good, good.

Yes.

And did you have any, Mom?

Um... No.

No, no, I didn't. I, I, I...

It's a wedding.

Okay.

Okay, okay, okay.

Your lifelines...

It, it's like they've...

Intersected before.

Oh, that's strange.

Really?

You've walked in each other's path.

It's like... A crazy path crossed that you've climbed into.

You've learned a lesson.

A lesson that may serve you again.

Okay, that's enough.

I will give these to my neighbors.

I'm onto something here.

One more thing.

Right over there is a QR code that you can tip me with.

Any amount is appreciated.

Really?

I didn't know I could do that voice.

Nice prank, Mom.

We know what you did.

What did I do?

What do you mean?

The psychic?

Yeah, telling her.

Oh, okay, okay.

You think I'd rather solve your problem than deal with my booming culinary empire.

I just thought I'd think of her...

I'm home.

You're happy here.

Aren't you the psychic?

I need you to look into my future and tell me where we're going to live.

Oh, cool Gen Z. Talking to me.

If it's not London, I need you to alter my destiny.

And I literally have to stay in Los Angeles, so there's...

That's not really how it works.

Well, how does it work?

Girls... Follow my aura.

Boop.

Beep.

Deepdoop.

You don't have a lot of lines in your hand, so it makes it harder for me.

You two are called to be family.

Yeah, right.

Don't remind me.

A lesson for you all.

I see it now.

Look.

Why is she rhyming like a bridge troll?

Earthquake?

Earthquake?

Did you feel that?

Yeah, it must be the dancing.

Yeah, right. We're just freaking ourselves out for no reason.

Yeah, it's just in our heads.

Right.

All cozy and tucked in?

You need anything?

What more could I possibly need?

How about sleeping in our own beds in our own rooms?

Hmm.

Sweet dreams.

Teenagers.

I was one, once.

Yeah, so was I.

Twice.

Night.

Night, love you.

Love you too, honey.

I didn't have an alarm.

Why do my hands look so dry?

Why am I so tired?

Mom?

Gwyneth?

Gwyneth?

Gwyneth, are you okay?

Why are you bloody waking me up for?

Are you mad at me?

Why do I sound like this?

Sound like what?

American?

Huh? No.

Oh, good mom.

Who was that?

Lily, are you okay?

No.

Lily?

You are back.

No.

No.

No.

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

I'm bloody decomposing.

Harper?

Oh, my God.

I know.

What is happening?

It's me, it's mom.

What are you saying?

I'm grandma, sweetheart.

Oh, my gosh.

I've died.

I killed myself!

She just has crevices all over her face. Look at the crevices!

My hands look like doll hands.

My butt feels so high.

I think I just peed a little.

Oh no.

My face feels so thirsty and dry.

My face is perfect.

My face looks like a Birkenbeck that's been left out in the sun.

Why do I have to pee again?

This is so much weirder than the last time.

Last time? What last time?

How come you never told me?

We never told anyone, sweetheart.

Now let's just pause and reframe.

I didn't want to be a part of this family.

And now I'm part of some dodgy family curse?

And I'm the eldest?

Mom?

And where are her lips?

She has no lips!

Where did they go?

How do we fix this?

Well, you know, last time we switched back when

we saw things from the other's perspective.

Should we hold hands?

Okay, hold my hands.

I know I've been hard on you and Eric, but I

can now see that you're doing the right thing.

And Mom, you have always done so much for me.

And I see you.

I see you.

Are you really seeing me though? Because I don't feel anything.

You have no idea how hard I'm seeing you right now.

One, two, three.

Girls, that doesn't work.

Yeah, we tried that last time.

Looking like this is why people like you become shut-ins.

And what's with this accent? Tomato.

Is that what you think I sound like?

Oh my God, yes, of course this is what you sound like.

I do not sound like that. I've never said that

in my entire life. I don't even know what it is.

And then I'm going to call my energy healer because I

need a chakra reset. Yes, that's what you sound like.

The healer? Madam Jen?

I thought she was a psychic.

Ow, I thought she did sound baths for dogs.

I thought she was a water sommelier.

She did try to sell me knives.

What? No, whatever she is, we have to find her. But until then... Until then what?

Well, last time we convinced everyone that we were each other until we switched back.

Oh, brilliant. So how are we supposed to pull that off?

Panicking is not going to help anyone.

Get out!

Bye girls, it's going to be great.

Look mom, I know I kept it totally together in front of the

girls, but I have to be honest, I am freaking out right now.

That was you keeping it totally together?

Yes!

No, no, just checking.

Or a photographer.

20% off at the Etsy shop.

I can't get married. I haven't even had a boyfriend yet.

We have to switch back to our bodies.

At least your body didn't wake up with arthritis.

It's disconnected. I guess her life coaching business went bust.

I'm supposed to get married this weekend.

What are these? And how many puffer jackets does someone need?

Hm, Reiki master. What did you find?

I bent down and didn't toot.

Youth really is wasted on the young.

What's with the old tissues in every pocket?

Explain.

No answer at Reiki. And now what?

Did you try our vegan meatloaf truck?

They don't have a number, and they only use DoorDash, and I don't know how to do that!

I look ugly and Fisher years old.

I'm literally my mother.

I'm going to need therapy for the rest of my life.

And not the kind from Graham's, like the real kind, that you have to pay for.

Ugh, why does anyone wear these?

Did she say anything? Like a fortune?

No, but maybe she told the girls.

Did the psychic say anything to you about a fortune?

It could be the key to getting out of this.

Wait, she did, right?

She did.

What was it?

Change the hearts you know are wrong to reach the place where you belong.

That's about our parents getting married.

L.A., London.

As teenagers, we had no power.

No say in whether we move or stay.

But, as adults...

Mom, she didn't say anything to us!

Oh.

Whoa, honest.

You do not hate me.

So, what do you say?

We need a plan.

Eat cake doughnuts.

She'll love those.

Harper, got them.

I'll love those.

Hey girls, how was the sleepover?

Good.

Very good.

We did teenager stuff.

So here's our plan.

First, these clothes are rubbish.

We just can't.

Can you just give me five minutes?

What?

No.

How?

Why?

You're in your mom's body.

So, all you have to do is tell my dad you don't love him anymore.

Wedding is off.

Done.

Whoa.

Got some bangs.

What did you do to my hair?

I fixed it.

And you're welcome.

It's called a fringe.

Seriously, think you're going to my work dressed like this?

Just take that off.

You're going to get me fired.

What did you do to my hair?

I slicked it.

You never wash your hair.

No, I don't.

The ocean washes it for me.

Obviously.

The wedding can't happen.

It's Friday.

We only have until Sunday.

We've got to do some serious sabotage.

The immigration interview.

The rehearsal lunch.

Then, what if we cancel all the wedding stuff?

The cake.

Place.

People.

And all we have to do is convince our parents that they are incompatible.

Which should not be hard because my mom obviously

should not be with some wannabe Gordon Ramsay.

Well, my father doesn't want to be with some wannabe Valley Village rocker mom.

I don't like this.

Sexy tiger.

No, no, no.

It's an American superstition that it's bad luck for

the bride and groom to kiss before they say I do.

Really?

For how long?

For a long time.

A long, long time.

Really?

Yeah.

Also, no touching hands.

No touching at all.

No gazing into each other's eyes because it's gross.

Yeah.

How old?

For maximum luck.

And finally, we must be convincing as them until we break them up.

Lily.

Yeah?

Did you just take Tessa's calcium?

Bone health.

You need those.

Yes, I'll be taking them.

You need to take those.

I'm going to donate them.

No, you can't.

Let's crack on.

Well, actually, Lily and I aren't feeling very well.

We think it might be a smart decision to stay home.

This has nothing to do with your detention.

Oh, well, you wouldn't want me to go to school sick, would you, Mom?

You don't feel sick to me. Does she look sick to you, perhaps? I mean, Mom.

No.

They look fine. You have your client Ella's huge Rolling Stone photoshoot today

and your immigration interview. Don't you need a little bit of help with that?

Of course she needs your help.

All right, kids these days. Won't say anything to get out of school.

Come on, girls.

And make good choices.

Come on, come on. Let's go. See you at the dance studio.

Wait, what? Dance studio?

Let's go. I'll change you at the club. I got your bag.

Change?

This is the finals.

Welcome, everybody, to the Westside Pickleball Championship.

Oh, yeah, you have your championship today.

I think you're going to be late.

Late? Yes, yeah, I'm going to be late.

Okay, newlyweds. You just made your grand entrance

into the wedding reception. The lights begin to dim.

And a five, six, seven, Eric.

Death knows.

Oh, right. Make a ball.

Yes. Charge.

Stallion.

Yes.

Get it, groom. Big stallion energy.

All right.

So look at him. Eye contact. Come on.

Hi.

Tango is your pelvis.

Pickleball, it's a sport, right, tennis?

But it is for athletes.

It's for athletes, but that's what it is.

Oh, it's like tennis, but for non-athletes.

It's a bunch of old nutters with giant paddles chasing a wiffle ball.

It's not bloody Wimbledon, is it?

Here we go.

Okay, that was aggressive.

What was that?

She almost hit me.

Okay.

Oh, it's good. This is fine.

Up you go.

No, it's okay. It's fine. This is good.

You're just lying on the floor, taking a little nappy-poo. Not a nappy-poo. Tango.

Oh, no, I'm just thinking that maybe the tango isn't hurt again.

Anything else?

Okay, Beck, what else is sexy?

Come on. We're out of the game.

Game point, suckers.

Serena Williams, she's got nothing on the song these ladies are making.

The fully something beat of hip-hop.

Oh, that's it?

Yeah.

Uh-huh, and hip-hop. I've never seen this kind of hip-hop.

Hip-hop.

She's on the ground. How is she doing that?

That's a new move.

That's defensive offense. Defensive offense.

Woman, get up!

Yes! Yes!

Take that, boomers!

Okay, okay.

First of all, hold me. We are not boomers.

We're Gen X.

We are elder millennials.

Some of the last millennials.

The finale.

And five, six, seven, eight.

No!

And Anna!

Run, girl, run!

Get in, run, run, run!

Anna!

Mom, we're supposed to know where to go.

Natural, honey.

Can you tell me how? Okay.

I have an immigration interview, a rehearsal lunch,

Ella's big show, my wedding, and I am stuck in detention.

But I'm stuck here, too.

And it's the championships for the entire West Side.

Well, well, well.

Look who showed up.

Lily Reyes and Harper Coleman.

How have you not retired yet?

The school had our pension invested in crypto.

And since I'm not supposed to complain about

it for my lawyer, it's neither here nor there.

So let's surrender our devices and let's go.

And now it's time to prepare for the most

boring task you could ever possibly imagine.

Sit there, read or think only.

No screens, books.

Wait, does he mean hours of uninterrupted peace?

Wipe that look of bliss off your face.

Get over yourself, Elton. This is high school, not prison.

Yeah, it's not a prison.

Which, FYI, research shows is ineffective at preventing recidivism.

Yeah, rizzicism.

You know, giving back to the community is a

lot more effective than trapping people inside.

Oh.

You want to go outside?

Let us out.

Yeah, let us out.

Let us out.

Let us out.

Let us out.

Let us out.

Let us out.

Outside.

Let us out.

Stop it!

We need to find Matt and Jen now.

We need our phones.

Come on, Reggie, you run like McRibber.

Ah!

It's enough!

Rude!

Pick up the pace or you'll pick up cash!

Yeah, I know, I don't care about the deposit.

And the officiant?

Oh, that includes the officiant, too?

Cancel that, too.

Thank you.

How come Jen isn't answering?

Is this for real?

Yes.

Where are you?

Oh, no!

Boo!

Remember, it's the Hungry Tour.

Trevor's allergic to strawberries.

Looks sweet, Ella.

Ella's having a meltdown.

Hold on.

Hello, my staff of people that I see all the time.

Here's your dish.

Oh, thank you.

All right, so she's only here for this.

Come on.

Why would you give me that to drink?

Can you tell me if I don't?

Anna!

Jeans shorts.

Fresh guard.

Laundry day?

Let's talk about the headline for the article.

It's giving it, girl.

Pop star Queen Ella slays down the house.

Or we're gagging besties.

Ella's new album just hits different.

No, no, just stop.

What deeply out of touch old person came up with those?

You did.

I did?

Wow.

Thanks, boss.

Okay, I really need you to focus on Ella.

Okay.

Don't start that.

Ella, Trevor involved me.

And you know what that means?

No.

What it means is that the whole world knows that he dumped me.

It's everywhere.

Okay, I am your manager.

So I'm gonna manage this.

Okay.

Ryan, I really do need to dash.

Yeah, but they sent the photographers back in five minutes.

Photographer?

Yeah.

For your new passport photo.

The one you need for the international party.

Oh, yes.

I remember every detail that you told me about me.

Yeah, I got prescriptions.

You got the essentials.

Essentials?

Yes.

Shh.

Do I need all these things?

I can move that.

Yes.

Where does this go?

Go there.

With adult mappies?

That is so lazy.

Oh, hey.

Yes, right here.

Fix it in?

Yes.

It's in that tool case for old people.

Oh, this is for when you lose your teeth.

I'm gonna lose my teeth?

No!

Okay, slowpokes.

I want every blue spirulina smooth spill gone.

I want every chia seed scraped.

Every chewed piece of organic gum on the bottom of these seats gone!

Way to go, Harper.

It's an ALTF.

What?

No, this was Lily's fault.

Elton!

Yeah?

I understand that you feel the need to prove a

point because I publicly undermined your authority.

How?

Do you understand me?

This isn't restorative justice.

I mean, if anything, you're making these kids want to act out law.

How does Lily always manage to make things worse?

It's a unique talent.

I have connections on the school board, Elton.

Well, you're a stupid kid and you have no connections,

but you have earned, along with everybody here,

three more weeks of detention.

Lily!

That was uncalled for.

Let's all take a deep, centering breath.

You gotta stay on this.

You ready?

Stunning.

Wow.

Good, right?

I think you're having an allergic reaction.

No, no, no, no. It's Riff Pumper.

I want to get some ice.

Okay, give me some ice.

I'll bring a bottle of Benadryl liquid fun.

It's Riff Pumper.

No, Ryan, I don't have allergies.

Oh, okay, whatever.

Do you have another big one?

True.

I didn't think.

And can you make the... You're conserving, right?

I'll help.

Okay, ready?

Ready.

Let me do it. Hold it.

Oh, no.

Did you just hit maybe 50 rocks?

I'll just do a look, okay?

Okay, here I go.

Dear sir,

must cancel the wedding venue

because the bride is horrible,

as my daughter, always suspected.

Oh, who's in the bar?

Hello, hello?

Hey, hon.

I need your approval on the author photo.

Okay.

Texting it over now.

Oh, no.

No, no.

That one's rubbish.

I just took a new one.

I'm sending now.

Oh, look.

Her phone has the giant letter virus.

Oh.

Ryan, is it possible for you to drop me at Anna's work?

Hey, you Trevor-heads.

That was your boy, Trevor Trev.

My mom's biggest client is having a meltdown.

Jack!

I'm working!

Trevor, her boyfriend dumped her.

Trevor Travis.

Shh.

She's so much better, better, better than her last one.

Oh.

And they just got matching tattoos.

Oh, that is literally the worst thing I've

ever heard happening to anyone ever, full stop.

Thank you.

Of course.

Anna's getting married, so she doesn't get what it's like to have your heart broken.

Oh, I know.

When I was your age, my mom, I mean, I had this boyfriend, Jake.

And all my friends say he was my first love.

Is that who your song's about?

What song?

My song?

I wrote that?

It's really good.

This is a great song.

You're really good.

I don't get why you quit playing.

Because I had a kid, who I probably resent, since I'm writing songs in secret.

So you miss performing?

I mean, yeah, probably.

I'm finding out a lot about myself today.

Anna, your song is the only song I loved out of everything that we got sent.

I know you already said no, but can I please sing it at the Wilton tomorrow?

I mean, it's your concert, your tour. You should sing whatever song you want.

Okay.

I feel like between managers and stylists and execs and label people,

I feel like I never get a say in anything that goes on.

Right!

Right, because old people never listen.

I mean, people like you think... I think people

like me think people like you don't know... You know what I mean.

Yeah, I have control over my own life.

Absolute control.

Photoshoot's back on.

Photoshoot is back on, grasshoppers!

Jump, jump, jump!

Let's make some fierce photos of this!

Girl, having a job is really hard.

Wait.

What? Wait what?

If your mom wrote that song about that Jake, that's

how we can get our parents to split up forever.

So if she is with him, she can't marry my dad.

Well, how do we find him?

It's like a database of old people.

Jake.

Oh, that's him.

Yes, from the photo.

Wait, wait, wait, look.

Okay.

Oh, and he owns the record parlor.

He has liked all your mom's posts.

He is proper obsessed with her.

Single.

Okay, let's do it.

Let's do it.

But first, your mom must look fit if she's going to run into the love of her life.

And I need to change too.

Ella's stylist has pulled the most gorgeous garms I've ever seen in my entire life.

Baby, love this for me?

Girl, the label loves this for you.

Can we just put it on here?

Put just the baby on your shoulder?

No.

Rest it on your neck?

Please, can we just put our differences aside so that I can live my dream?

Please.

This is only because of the plan.

Oh, thank you.

You're welcome.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Not very mean.

Not at all.

It's so exciting.

So, please look at the camera.

It's very different.

Find the shape and then hold it.

Good luck.

I'm sorry, where did the fruit come from?

This is cool.

Exactly.

She's psyched, I think.

Tess, your styling is so on point.

You two are the coolest adults I have ever met.

Thanks.

Bye.

Thank you.

My mom does have a cool job.

Yes.

She's our new best friend.

I think so.

I think so.

Do you guys need a ride?

Oh, yes.

Totally.

Yes.

Thank you.

Oh, no.

They've gone completely rogue.

This is so cool.

What are we wearing?

They're on a toy ride with Ella.

You'll never find them.

No.

But we can find Madame Jen.

Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

Oh, yeah.

Come on!

Madame Jen says she lost a table at the large Mont Blanc restaurant,

but now she can be seen at the Starbucks across the

street from the large Mont Vintage wine and tea shop.

Look, I know we don't have time.

But we are here.

And my metabolism is the speed of sound.

I got extra loose greens!

My knees work!

I would not rule Derry.

Bush was president.

Curly fries!

Flexibility!

We really need to find Madame Jen.

Yes, of course.

They have onion rings on their burgers.

I haven't digested my food since... Sugar.

I love this sugar.

But also this.

Absolutely delicious.

It has Nutella in it.

All you have to do is go in there and flirt with Jake.

And remind him he fancied you when you were young.

Wait, it wasn't me when I was young.

And I don't know how to flirt.

I definitely don't know how to flirt as an old person.

What do they do?

Talk about transitional lenses?

Bone repairs?

John Mayer?

I don't... Oh, I have an idea.

We both wear our AirPods.

That way you can help me because you have a French boyfriend.

So you definitely know how to flirt.

Yeah.

Defo.

Yes.

I'm gonna go in and then I'll give you the word

when to come in and make your sexy grand entrance.

What sexy grand entrance?

What do you mean?

You have to be sexy.

No.

Sexy.

I'm not doing that.

Oh.

Hey.

This is a different look.

Uh-huh.

It's awesome.

I didn't know you were coming by today.

I got the stuff from the back.

What stuff?

What do you mean?

That's him.

That's our bloke.

What's happening?

He's going to get me stuff.

What is your mother doing behind my father's back?

Shh.

No.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

Do not shush me.

Okay.

Get down.

He can't hear me.

Get down.

I'm ignoring you.

Hey, thanks again for doing this.

What exactly are we doing here?

Signing merch for the charity auction.

Oh.

Right, here you go.

Right.

The merch.

Oh!

I have a question.

Do you ever think about me?

About us?

Not sure there's a right answer to this question.

I mean...

Do you ever...

miss... us?

You're getting married this weekend.

Unless...

I'm not.

Okay.

Very good.

Now do something cheeky.

Like lift your hair.

Good.

Oh, good.

Big, big, big moves.

Big moves.

One more.

Shake your head.

Shake it.

More.

Like all the way around.

There you go.

Shake it.

Excellent.

Okay.

Um, wink at him.

Try winking.

Wink.

Wink.

Wink.

One eye.

One eye.

Now do both.

Wink.

Okay.

Good.

Okay.

Um, that's not working.

Um... Uh, oh!

Bite your lip.

Bite your lip.

What?

Why is he looking at you like that?

No.

Not your top lip.

Your bottom lip.

Bite your bottom lip.

Like that.

Pouty.

I know what this is.

I've seen this before.

You're having a stroke.

We need to get you help.

No, no.

I just need to go in the bathroom.

Just, yeah.

It's in the back.

Alright, I'll find it.

Are you sure?

There's no merch in the...

I was really bad at that.

So bad at that.

How did you know your boyfriend liked you?

Um, you just know?

Huh?

How?

Like, specifically.

You've dated a guy.

You know this.

You have experience.

Tell me.

Help me out here.

Harper, I...

I don't have a French boyfriend.

My entire dating experience is watching 500 Hours of Love Island.

Wait.

You're like the most confident person I know.

It's an act.

What?

You're not going to tell everyone, are you?

No.

I'm not like that.

I wouldn't do that.

Okay.

Thank you.

Oh, God.

You're not going to hug me, are you?

No, I was just... No, don't do that.

Hey, it was just... Alright, look.

No, we should get back out there.

Right?

Because otherwise he'll think I'm pooping.

There she is.

I see her.

Right by the milk.

And I see your spring writing career taking off.

If you move over to, um... Genre?

Genre.

Yes.

Genre.

Elevated genre?

Um... No.

Sorry.

You!

Oh.

Um...

How can I help?

Take one wild guess.

Are you going to serve me papers?

We switched bodies.

Oh.

Oh, my gosh.

It actually worked.

That's amazing.

It's never worked before.

Um, would you guys mind leaving me a review or, like, five stars and just saying, like,

Oh, my gosh.

Madam Jen was so much more like the... Tell us how to switch women right now.

Okay.

Alright.

Um, I'll consider it.

If you sign up for my Reiki and financial management package...

Tell us how to switch back, you multi-hyphenate lunatic.

Oh, my gosh.

I am a multi-hyphenate.

That absolutely slays.

I'm supposed to get married in two days.

Right.

Okay.

Um... Alright.

Well, you have to look at the reading.

That's the only way.

We don't know the reading.

Um, what are you talking about?

I said the reading directly to you both, multiple times, in a scary whisper voice.

Because we weren't there.

Okay.

But that wasn't... Right.

Oh, right.

You weren't you.

Because you had switched with the other women who are...

Okay.

That's... and it makes sense.

Um, okay.

Well, the reading was, change the hearts you know

are wrong to reach the place where you belong.

Didn't we try that?

I think we tried that.

Okay.

Okay.

Well, the problem is, your hearts might not be the only ones that need changing.

So... Oh, cute.

Well, we're tying this up.

Wait.

No, no, no.

There's got to be something else you can do, right?

I wish I could help you, but my shift is starting.

So what I can do for you is get you a cortado, an americano,

a francaise, and any kind of espresso or non-espresso drink.

It's your dad!

Shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot!

It's Gordon.

Uh, excuse me.

Tess?

Oh!

What are you doing down there?

Stretching.

Oh, yeah, hi.

Anna didn't... she didn't tell me that you were going to be here today.

Oh, what interview? I mean, yes, I know the interview. Now?

I was just thinking about you the other day.

Really?

I've been meaning to ask you something.

Sure.

And, um, I don't quite know how to broach the subject,

but is, um, is your husband... is he still with us?

Yeah. I can't believe it. I mean, he's so old.

How... how old is he?

We never talk about it, but somewhere between 50 and 100.

Really?

Yeah, yeah, but, okay, let me focus for a second. I'm worried about Anna, all right?

And she's been being weird with me, and she keeps asking if I ever think about her.

You know, maybe she is reconsidering.

Reconsidering?

Uh-huh.

Three weeks ago, she told me how in love she is with Eric.

Do you know that she wrote a song about you?

No.

Anna? Daughter? Why don't you tell Jake about the song you wrote?

I wrote a song about us.

You know what? I'll give you your privacy. I'm just gonna go look

for music for old people. You know, really old, like Coldplay.

It's nice to hear you writing again.

Yeah, can you just give me a second, bro? Just one second.

Coldplay.

We need to get to the immigration interview. Now.

Okay, let's go.

Oh, my legs are so weak. My knees are cracking like walnuts.

What is happening right now?

My brain is telling my body to stand up, but it's like shouting into the abyss.

See, I just tried to get up again.

Okay.

Help me.

Okay, we have to find a way to get to the immigration interview.

Okay, okay. Oh, wait. I have an idea.

Okay, come on.

Sir, that's why I said sign a special bond.

Oh, Jake.

Hi.

Can we borrow your car?

Oh, and don't worry. We are totally of age to drive.

Anything for you, Dr. C.

You ready?

Hold on.

Oh, that's the woman after my heart.

I love driving.

I don't know who taught you how to drive, but they were good.

Oh, jeez.

Hi. Nice car.

It's totally mine.

Do you think he's cute?

I do not.

You totally do.

Stop. I do not.

Yes, you do.

I do not.

She thinks you're cute.

I do not.

Yes, she does.

I do.

She so does.

I do.

Thanks.

Dr. Coleman?

That's my therapist!

You nervous?

Oh, why would I be? We're perfect for each other.

You'll see.

Oh, that's cryptic.

Coleman Reyes.

Yes, that's us.

Love.

So many ruffles.

There you go.

How are you?

Oh, I was just dumped by my fiancée, so... you know.

Oh, no. I'm so sorry.

Oh, what a decent thing to say. Thank you.

Yes, of course.

Are you single?

Kidding.

Um, can I see your paperwork?

Ah, yes.

I'm sure you're approved.

Wait, whoa. Don't you need to see if we really know each other?

I mean, usually, yeah, but... He seems like such a kind and honest man.

Who clearly works out.

Oh.

A lot.

I mean, you could be a gymnast.

I did once qualify to represent the UK in pole vaulting.

You're kidding, really?

I'd still like for us to prove that we, you know, are marriage material.

So, what's my favorite road trip snack?

Uh, 7-Eleven hot dog. Dipped in blue Slurpee.

Dream vacay?

Taking the girls to the Galapagos. Harper would love the biodiversity.

I think Lily could really benefit from the dirt.

Though, she really just wants to see a, uh...

Komodo dragon in the wild.

It's her favorite animal.

These are too, too easy. You gotta hit me with the hard stuff.

What is my guilty pleasure pump-up song?

Oh. Uh, darling, I promised to never divulge that highly classified information.

See? He doesn't know me. At all. See?

Okay.

We can't get married.

It's... it's Chubba Wumba.

She told you?

Wait. Creepy crawling or tub thumping?

I get knocked down.

But I get up again.

You're never gonna keep me down.

I get knocked down.

But I get up again.

You're never gonna keep me down.

That's the one. Yeah.

It's in the night away.

Oh, wow.

Oh, Danny boy. Danny boy.

Danny boy.

Danny was my fiancé's name.

Okay, enough.

What's my deepest, darkest fear?

Oh, that you left for Harper.

And you, to protect her, will push her away rather than bring her close.

And then she'll run away and be a surf bomb.

And then she'll get a dodgy tattoo with the sun around her belly button.

But you're a phenomenal mom.

And Harper is amazing.

So that'll never happen.

Well, that was really sweet.

I know that.

You know, I approve hundreds of marriages that probably won't even last a year.

But you two...

Thank you.

Next.

Well done. We got approved.

Uh, my secret medicine made cancer?

I should deal with this.

But, yeah, my mom's almost here.

Okay, uh, bye.

I don't know what makes her...

Muppet, Muppet! How'd it go?

Your dad knows a lot about my mom.

I think he really loves her.

But did you do enough to break them up?

I don't know. I need to clear my mind.

Can we go somewhere?

Yes, yeah. Get in.

Don't drive so fast.

Muppet, look out!

Change the hearts you know are wrong to reach the place where you belong.

What do you think she meant by that?

I think she made it all up.

But look on the bright side, honey.

These scooters are so much fun.

Why have we never done this before?

Because you already have one big hip and you do not need another.

It's very funny. I'll have you know in this pod we are two criminals.

Nothing broke!

We're invincible!

Bye, Destiny!

Girls! Get in the car!

How do kids get away with anything anymore?

You know, I hated you a little less today.

I think it's hard to hate you when I look like your gran.

And I hated you a little less today, too.

I just don't understand how anyone can dislike California.

It's like a wrong opinion.

Harper, you can't have a wrong opinion.

I mean, look around.

Yes, okay, Harper. It's lovely. It's lovely.

I just...

I'm missing Melinda.

We can talk about her if you want.

No, thanks.

I think if I talk about her, I'm giving away what little of her I have left.

And why are you so obsessed that I like Los Angeles?

Well, I'm not.

Yes, you are.

No.

Yes.

And look, even if I liked it a little bit here, I mean...

You still don't want me around.

Obviously not.

Obviously not.

I guess it's a good thing we're stopping this wedding.

Yeah.

Where are they? They're supposed to be home by now.

This is very good.

A little dry.

Very fruitful wood. And by fruit, I mean grapes.

Your lack of concern.

It's not working.

Just stay calm, honey. Stay calm.

But I've got the rehearsal lunch, the final dress fitting, and my

wedding is in 36 hours, and I'm trapped in the body of a ninth grader.

I did. I told you so.

Oh, you most certainly did. What difference does it make anyway?

Where on earth have you been?

Well?

Can't two adult women come home when they please?

What do you think you're doing driving around like that with Ella all day?

Ella, we went to a fashion show and the stars.

Why am I dressed like that?

And she said that my design was beautiful.

Shh, Ryan.

Okay, I don't care about that right now.

Did you make it to the immigration interview?

Yes, I did. Just like, chill, okay? Or do your weird breathing stuff that you do.

Chill?

I am the adult here. I am in charge.

Doesn't look like it.

You just earned yourself a consequence.

Ooh.

Oh, no.

No.

Give me your phones.

Sure.

Psych.

By the way, you're the reason this is all falling apart.

Shut up.

No, I'm not.

Yes, it totally is.

Girls, this is serious. We all need to start getting

along unless we want to be stuck like this forever.

You know, you lot are getting the better end of this deal.

It's us who are going to be dead in, like, five years.

She's 37.

I'm 36 and a half!

While you two are out having fun, we found Madam Jen.

She made us five business cards for everyone.

And a Reiki 10 pass.

What even is Reiki?

Huh?

What is it?

Stop talking about Reiki!

Well, Madam Jen said to change your hearts, so change your freaking dang hearts!

It's the only way for us to get out of this mess!

I'm switching to red. Do you want one?

You're making Mommy very stressed!

Use Reiki now!

I'm not a chosen skill.

Okay, blue crush.

Look at you, shredding the waves, dude.

Never use those words again.

Wait, what are you doing here?

My lessons.

What lessons?

Self lessons.

But it looks like you're ready to surprise Hop and take her out.

Oh, yeah, that's really gonna surprise Harper.

Obviously.

Oh, no, I just ate a bowl of onions.

In the water?

Yeah, they keep me alert.

Okay.

Look, I know it feels like we're in an impossible situation.

Maybe that's why things felt a bit off with us.

Yeah, probably.

Yeah, but Anna, I think we should stay in L.A.

What about Lily?

Going back to London, the Cambridge Wall is not covering back her mum.

And there's no one keeping us there anymore.

If I'm honest, we felt so lost.

So what she needs is to be with family.

A gran like Tess, a sister like Harper.

And you.

What is it?

It's just... I can't believe how much you love me.

And my family.

The real, true love.

It's just... it's crazy.

Okay, well, you made it look so easy.

I'm gonna give it a go.

Oh, I don't know if I... I can't do it as much as you!

Move!

I'm okay.

I'm gonna wait. I'm gonna wait for the instructor.

I mean, you were amazing.

You were like weaving, and dodging, and you were like a pro surfer.

I'm glad.

It fits perfectly. Anna, come look.

Oh, wow.

Sweetheart.

Fix your posture.

This is weird.

Weirder for me, trust me.

Really? Are you the one wearing your mom's wedding dress?

Oh, I never thought I'd get to have this experience.

Especially like this.

Well, Mom, you know how much I love to wear a dress.

I'm sorry, this is such a mess, Harper.

Mom, there's something I need to tell you.

Mom?

What were you talking to my dad about this morning?

Oh, we were just talking about the lunch.

What about the lunch?

It's just lunch stuff.

The lunch.

Um...

I'm just gonna make a quick call.

Okay.

Oh, hi!

It's Tess.

Um, listen.

Last minute, but Anna was wondering if you

might like to attend her rehearsal luncheon.

No, you would not be in a position.

You know what? I think your appearance there

would make it a much more lively affair.

So I just wanted to say that I'm very excited.

And being at my new restaurant makes it all the more

special for all of us to finally come together as a family.

So with that said, welcome to the Lise.

Congratulations.

Thank you for coming. Really, Eric and I so appreciate it.

Right. Thanks.

Champagne, ladies?

Yes, please.

Because we're adults.

Eric's parents are here, so best behavior, please.

Stand up straight. Good posture.

Anna, my soon-to-be daughter. My heart is so full.

That's me.

How was your flight?

It was 13 hours and 13 minutes from Manila.

Major jet lag. Some worse than others.

But I really love it here.

Maybe Harper can teach me the surfing.

Sure, dude.

Mana po, Lola?

You're so silly. Only Lily calls me Lola.

But I want to support your Tagalog learning. Keep it up.

Come on, Anna.

No, no, no. We just have to wait for the surprise guest.

What are you talking about?

Oh, just wait.

Hello, sir. Welcome.

No, thank you.

Oh, you're here to see someone.

Jake.

Just a loner.

What's he doing here?

I invited him, but I didn't think he'd come.

But you know, he really likes your gran.

My mom's going to freak out.

I know, so will my dad. That was the whole point.

Oh, you.

Dr. C.

Thank you for inviting me.

I saved your number. I hope that's okay.

Of course.

Ah.

Hi, there.

Hey.

Hmm. I think I'm going to have to ask you to leave.

Uh, now?

But, uh, you know, your mom, she really wanted me here.

Right, I'm sure.

Uh, well...

Okay.

I got you.

Thank you so much. You're the best, bro.

Wait, wait.

Oh, thank goodness.

I won't leave.

Jake, don't go.

Uh, Tess, Tess.

Um, can we have a chat later? It's regarding Lily.

Oh, if it's regarding Lily, we should chat now.

My big sister, Anna.

After every atomic wedgie you gave me, I

always knew that you also had an atomic heart.

Anna and I decided we should all stay in L.A.

What?

Yes.

What? Everyone?

Yes.

As a therapist, I was hoping to get your thoughts on the best way to approach Lily.

But I know how you feel about Bilbo now, so we can chat later.

Okay.

Okay.

You.

He's not the backstabber.

No introduction.

All right, who wants to speak next? Father of the groom looks ready.

No, no, I have a few choice words for the bride. I would like to make a toast.

That's Crystal.

Oh, we have a toasting triangle.

Oh, piss off.

I would like to make a toast to your future husband, so

that he knows what kind of woman he is getting married to.

Oh, he does, he does, he does. He knows who he's marrying, and he can make

his own decisions, and he knows not to be manipulated by other people.

He does.

Hey, Gramps, this is between us.

Listen to your husband.

You listen to me.

Oh, Ella, what does she want?

Micro cilantro from the foothills of Oaxaca.

It was not my fault that micro cilantro is bursting with flavor.

But it is your fault that the cilantro has no loyalty to its flavor.

What are they doing? We have to stop them.

Are you doing all right, Earl?

Oh, Ella, this is the last thing I need.

Oh, Jake's back already.

Jake, what are you doing here?

It was all her, I swear.

Really? And you are?

That's Anna's ex-boyfriend.

What?

She invited her ex-boyfriend?

What?

Because she still has feelings for him.

No, that's not that.

I, uh, after the appetizer, Anna said she wasn't feeling well, so I went...

Right, I wasn't feeling well.

Oh, okay, oh, but not from the food here. The food is fine.

Too fishy. No, it's fish.

It is not the food. She's just on her period. That's all.

She's on her period.

I'm on mine right now.

I got it.

I didn't really know where you were in your cycle.

I know, dude. It's fine. Thanks.

Can someone please explain to me what's going on here?

No, no, no, don't let her. She shouldn't

explain anything, because she will just lie.

Me?

Yeah.

I trust him.

I know, but you don't know what he said to me. You weren't there, you didn't hear it.

I don't think this marriage should happen.

Well, you know what? It's not just about what you want.

It isn't.

It's about what she wants and she... Ever about what I want.

It's always about what you want.

That's enough.

Does everyone want this?

Okay, that's enough.

Well, yes, some of them do.

Hey, that's enough.

The girl slicing is one thing, but this is your mum.

And for some reason, your ex-boyfriend is here.

Yeah.

Anna, I love you, but you're clearly having second thoughts.

This isn't working for our families.

And we always said we'd put our families first.

So...

We can't do this.

I can't do this.

Lily, help your grandparents. I'll meet you at the valet.

The waiting's off.

He's right. It's over.

Wait, no!

Wait, please, please, please, no!

I'm so sorry. I promise, I didn't mean for this to happen.

I think you did.

Yes, we did it.

Yeah.

I know this isn't the best time, but can I have my car back?

Maybe later?

She seems upset.

No, she just needs some space.

What about you? Are you doing okay?

Oh yeah, I'm always okay.

It would be fair if you weren't.

That all got pretty crazy.

I worry what'll happen when Tess doesn't have those two to drive her crazy.

You're worried about her.

I'm worried Tess will be really lonely if all of you move to London.

You're a good guy, Ryan.

Thank you.

Maybe this isn't for me to fix.

Mind if I join you?

Okay.

Are you okay?

I haven't seen my dad that upset.

Since my mum died.

And it was all my fault.

You know, when Ryan asked me to marry him, I thought

a lot about what Anna and Harry's dad would have said.

How he would have felt about it.

I think he'd be so happy for us.

And we found someone who loved us all so much.

I think my mum would feel the same way.

Yeah.

I really miss her.

I know.

She would be so disappointed.

No.

Yes, she would.

No.

Because I was very selfish.

I was.

No.

I was.

And I know it.

No.

She'd know your heart.

I should have found my dad.

Yeah.

And apologised.

Ella keeps texting me the word virgin and her show starts up now.

But what about Eric?

I think we should go back, mum.

I thought there was a way to make everyone happy, but there's not.

Right?

I think that we should go back for Eric, I really should.

Come on.

My client needs me.

Come on.

Don't go!

Stop the car!

Don't go!

Stop the engine!

Mum, I'm not!

The engine's not even on!

Jilly, is everything okay?

Yeah, everything's fine.

Okay.

I wonder what the big emergency was.

What are you doing here?

Ella said you said you missed performing.

Yeah, and that you told her she could do any song she wanted to.

You did.

The dressing room is right around the corner.

Put this on.

Why?

Well, because we're not 15 anymore, dolphins.

You can sit.

Okay.

Let me know when she's ready.

Crazy.

I can't believe you're making me do this.

Don't make fun of my dress.

I'm sorry.

This is all my fault.

Lily and I tried to sabotage you and Eric.

And I tried to make him fall out of love with

you, but I couldn't because he loves you so much.

And Mum, you shouldn't have to give that up for me.

Just like you gave up being a rock star.

And I know you've been secretly writing songs in private.

What?

You know, the one about Jake?

Jake?

What are you talking about?

I'm your good and I'm your bad because you're my baby and love was made to last?

Huh?

Harper, that song is not about Jake.

That song is about you.

About me?

Of course it is.

Harp?

Mum, I'm sorry that I said I wanted to stay with Grams if you left.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry that I made you think that you had

to choose between being together or being at home.

I choose you every time.

Okay.

We gotta go.

Oh look, we look like a group.

Let's go.

Where are we going?

Let's go.

If you'll excuse me, I have to go get Eddie.

No, no, no, no.

Please.

I know.

I said I didn't want this wedding to go on, but that's not true.

It's just not.

I was scared.

And I think I realised that I didn't want to share someone I love.

I appreciate that.

But wait, but please. You still love Anna. You still want to get married.

I... Do you?

I... Do you love her?

I love Anna.

Do you want to marry her?

I want to marry Anna.

But then what?

But it's not about me!

Lily is the most important person in my life.

And I worry every day of messing up as a parent.

Okay, I am on my own, I lost her mum, and I am so scared of losing her.

So I have to put her first.

What if you were right all along?

What if being here with the Colemans is exactly what she needs?

I thought so too.

But after all this...

I am not sure.

A little surprise guest for you.

Give it up for one of my favourite bands, Pink Slip!

We have to go!

You promised to meet, right?

No!

Let's go!

Let's go!

I don't want to play guitar.

It's alright, I can't.

I do.

This is a bad idea.

No, no, no, no!

No!

Pink Slip! Pink Slip! Pink Slip!

I'm going to be in a video game, guys.

Tonight!

Anna!

Mommy!

Anna!

Oh, what are you doing?

Oh!

Oh!

Oh, like this!

Like what?

Yes!

No!

No!

Yes!

No!

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Whew.

You know what?

Can we just stop for a second?

Sorry, I just...

I want to bring out the person that I wrote this song for.

She means everything to me.

And I love her so much.

I know that family isn't always easy.

But family is everything.

She also plays guitar way better than me.

So please welcome my daughter, Harper!

Ready to do this?

Together?

Yeah!

See you in my dreams

Whenever you go, I tear at the seams

If you think that I'll leave, don't worry

I'll just keep on coming back I'm your good and I'm your bad What are we doing here?

It's just silly. Anna and I are here.

I know.

We tried. We really did.

No, no, no, no. Please, just give us one more chance.

Please!

Trust us!

I just...

Wait, is that... Is that Anna?

Only I can ease the pain Because you're my baby

Because you're my baby Excuse me.

Baby, baby

Ella gave me these yesterday. Come with me. Come with me.

Okay.

They lay on the bed I'm trying my best

Believe me

This isn't the first We good to be here?

Yeah.

Shh!

Be the last time I can't find the words But making

it work Ain't easy Is Ella wearing one of my designs?

It was Anna's idea.

You can tell me that you're scared And I'll run my fingers through your hair

Because you come to say you're sorry For the

thousandth time I just keep on coming back

I'm your good little sunshine

I'm your love Because you're my baby, baby

I'll always choose you, too.

This family's exactly where I belong.

You sure?

Uh-huh.

Okay.

All right, let's just...

That's my hair.

Okay.

Thank you, Los Angeles!

And you'll still have me!

I can't wait to marry you!

Did you know she could do that?

Not at all.

We did it!

Oh, yes!

You two did it.

You did it together.

We did.

No, we didn't.

Wherever my sister is,

it's where I want to be.

Me, too.

I've been in, I've been out I've heard it all before

Get up, get out Move on, move on There's no doubt I'm no wrong, you're right

It's all the same with you I'm too thin, too fat

You ask why, so why, so why, so why, so why On and on and on and on

On and on

I want a shot, I'll take me Away, away

So, what do you say?

Will you marry me?

On one condition
