All language subtitles for The Love Club s01e03 Laurens Dream

All right, party people, you ready for
the countdown?

Hey, there you go.

Thank you for coming.

Oh, is it coming for you? Oh, yeah. You
got them in their playlist ready?

Uh, let me check.

Have you seen Nick, by the way? I
thought she'd be here by now. I haven't

her. Okay, got it.

First, I've got news.

What? I just got an email that one of
Brad Smith's interns dropped out, and

want me.

Isn't that incredible?

Brad Smith?

As in across the country, Brad Smith?

As in the biggest marketing consultant
in the country, yeah.

Right, no, this is amazing.

Except... I'm signing the lease for the
art gallery, and you're supposed to do

tables so that we can be here together.
Remember? Look, I know it's a lot to

digest, but this is a big opportunity
for me.

Okay?

Look, I gotta queue up this playlist,
but let's talk about this more after the

party. I love you.

Hey, y 'all. Happy New Year.

Hey, come here.

Nick,

there you are.

Oh, happy New Year.

Champagne? Oh, I'm good. I'll wait until
the countdown. I will take them.

Yeah, right? For a virtual arts class.

I am Lauren, your hostess with the
most...

Hey, Laura, are you okay? You usually
take it easy at your own parties. Yeah,

well, your boyfriend didn't just change
the plans on you, which clearly didn't

take what I want into account.

Mm -hmm.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Do you need to sit
down?

I think I need to sit down. Yeah.

Sit down, okay?

Wait, you're Sydney, the truck's gone.
That's me.

I made pecoras. They're inside. Now
that's a proper gift. Thank you.

Hey, are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

My boyfriend got me.

I'm number four.

I enjoy that club because Nick here just
got stood up. Lauren just had the

goalposts changed.

Looks like we are part of the broken
hearts club.

Well, okay, maybe we are right now,
but...

The one we're meant to be with has got
to be out there somewhere, right? So we

just have to be the smart, strong women
that we are and start making some great

choices.

Like no more into you abs because you
will not find your soulmate on that. I'd

have to agree with that. I wasn't
looking, but done and done.

I guess that means I'm dumping Peter.

No. You two love each other.

If that's true, then I'd give him
another chance. Talk it out.

Yeah, but remind him of what you want.

Definitely. And then maybe I should talk
to Byron and give him another shot. No,

no, no, no.

Sorry, four dumps is not a charm.

Ladies, look at us.

We're solving each other's romantic
crises right now.

So, we are not a broken hearts club.

We're the love club. I like it.

You know what? Hey, let's think about
it. From this day forward, we are there

for one another in our hearts and minds.

To the love club.

To the love club.

Bring us inside and get ready for
supper, okay?

Okay. This way.

Hey. Hey.

How was the parent -teacher meeting?

Oh, it was great. Yeah, the teacher said
he's very creative. Oh. Yeah, look at

this.

Oh.

Whoa.

The students had to close their eyes and
just let the brush flow around the

page. Steph really ran with this, huh?
That's what I thought.

Well, sorry I wasn't at the meeting.

You know work.

Yeah, I know.

Here, let me give you a hand. Thanks.

You're going by Sanders now.

It is my maiden name, Peter.

Right. Right.

There's my girl. You all ready to go?

Yep. Yeah?

Okay. Bye, Mom.

Bye, baby. Have fun at your dad's.

Before I forget, my lawyer's been asking
when the executed papers will be

ready. Yeah, I'll have those done when I
get a chance to read them over.

Hey, you're the one who wanted to get
things moving, so... Yeah, I'm just

getting things done, like I always do.

Right.

Okay.

Bye, bud. Okay.

Let's go.

Hi. Yes, this is Lauren Bishop.

I'm just following up on the curator
position.

All right. I understand, but I volunteer
at the art college, and I've also been

collecting art for years.

Plus, I'm head of the Parents
Association.

Right.

Well, thank you for your consideration.

Hi, Diane.

It's okay.

No, I have the news marker scheduled
right here. I haven't sent it yet.

No, no, no, it's fine. I will blast out
to the team tonight.

Okay. Bye -bye.

Ladies.

Have you ever wondered how you got
somewhere?

Like, who would have thought after that
New Year's, I'd marry Peter, have a

daughter, a house, all the good stuff.

Well, maybe not all the good stuff,
because here I am, tearing down divorce

papers.

Yep.

I'm about to become a statistic.

Fun times, right?

Although, if it means I get to connect
with the Love Club, it could be.

Because I'm guessing this is considered
a mess.

So, here's a link.

You know what to do.

Thank you.

There she is.

Oh, her.

Family's at the party.

Peter's got staff and you've got to send
her with something for the big show

today, so...

So, does that mean it's official?

It is. It's just not, you know, official
because I still need to sign the

documentals, but I will.

Are you sure? Because you do that weird
accent thing when you're lying.

Yep. And, I mean, you guys took that
time apart, so... Look, I'm sure, okay?

just need to find the time to read over
the papers. But, you know, there's just

so much going on. Like, Steph's birthday
is coming up, so, you know, it's not a

fixable dilemma.

I'm so sorry.

Well, I have an idea of what might make
things better.

Puds and cocktails, of course. Oh, and I
can prep the food.

Really? I would love that because the
house does feel a little empty lately,

Well, then we'll fill it.

Why can't we just see you guys tomorrow?
I love you guys so much.

I can't believe you all coordinated
coming together. Pretty impressive, huh?

Excuse me, what is impressive are all of
the changes you made out here.

Did you design this yourself?

Oh, girl, of course not.

One of the parents of the school is a
designer.

I would have hired you, but you're too
busy turning that inn into a little love

nest for Josh. Can I wait to feel
nauseous until later? Come on, you are

on a cruise ship. How romantic is that?

I was singing, okay? And the only thing
that I clung to on that raft was the all

-you -can -eat buffet.

Oh, speaking of buffets, Sid, how's the
restaurant?

Amazing.

Home cooking came and filmed an episode.

Well, that's my girl.

So proud of you.

And not because you still have this mug
from the years. Thank you.

Now tell us, how'd you get here?

Yeah, right.

So, you know, Peter and I took some time
apart a few months ago.

It really got me thinking how I put my
dreams of opening a gallery on hold,

doing everything for everyone else,
while Peter chased his dreams.

I mean, to this, he sees my art
collecting as just a hobby and forgot

plans too.

And now I can't even find a job as a
gallery assistant.

You guys had the best story.

College sweetheart, married right after
grad.

Even if there were some bumps along the
way.

Sorry to disappoint you, but those
bumps...

They turn into mountains.

No rom -com happy ending here.

Well, that's okay.

Because I am here to tell you, single
life does have its perks.

Check this out. Are you still on that
dating site?

Only because the high seas were so dry.

Thanks, Sarah, but I don't think I'm
ready for that yet. I mean, Peter has

always been the only one.

All the more reason to sew some oats and
have some fun. Here, changing my

location.

There. Now you can see what you've been
missing.

All right.

All right, let's see.

Okay.

Uh -huh.

The puppy.

You would love the puppy.

Okay. Oh, Thomas.

He could do with maybe one additional
piece of clothing. Oh, don't.

Oh, man.

Yeah. I'm here for that.

This one looks like he's 12. Oh, honey,
where's your mom?

Well, that was quick.

You know what?

I'm sure he's just fooling around.

I don't mean, like, fooling around,
fooling around. I mean, just, you know,

fooling around, putting his profile up
just for fun. Meg, it's okay.

I'm fine.

In fact, you know what?

I don't even need to read the papers
because I know exactly what we agreed

so I'm just going to sign them.

Laura, are you sure? Maybe you should
think on it some more.

Right there.

There is nothing else to think about
other than my future.

There.

Done and done.

Girl, you are still the hostess with the
mostest. My head is just...

Peter. Hi.

What are you doing here?

Well, not that you shouldn't be here.
It's just... It's so good to see you.

Nice to see you too, Nick.

Oh, look, everyone.

Peter's here.

Morning. Hello, ladies.

Peter, what are you doing here?

I forgot her science book, and I didn't
want to bother you, so I used my key.

All right, I'll go grab it.

Thanks.

So, you're all here for a visit or what?

Just a little girl trip.

Oh, great.

Great.

Good.

Thank you.

Sorry, are these for me?

Yeah, it's fine and everything.

But, um... Oh, we had a wine incident.

Right. Don't worry. I'll have my lawyer
send us new copies.

Okay.

So? So.

Shouldn't you be working or trolling or
whatever?

Yeah, I, uh... I should be off. I'll see
you all later when I bring Steph home.

Oh, yeah. We'll be here.

All right.

Have a good one.

Well, that seemed amicable.

Yeah. Seeing as he stole the key.

Please, it's just for convenience.

Like if I wasn't here, he'd be able to
come in and just grab whatever Steph

forgot.

Oh, shoot, look. Um, I've got some job
interviews that are going to go nowhere,

but please, make it till dawn.

See you guys later.

Bye.

Convenience?

No way.

I think it's a one foot in the door kind
of thing.

I think it's a control thing, so that
Peter can still feel like the man of the

house.

Sid, what do you think?

I mean, I love Lore, and I hate that
she's feeling this way, but I also feel

for both of them.

So I don't know what to think. Come on,
guys.

I mean, she did the whole it's official
thing.

Tara, you made fun of her for doing that
accent.

So maybe it's a good thing we still line
on the papers.

Oh, seriously, Nick? This isn't one of
those sappy movies you like watching.

Hey, for the record, I like all movies
now.

Thanks to Josh.

But, yes, I am serious. I think, you
know, we need to figure out if I'm right

before she finds the neighbors again.

Oh, what's all this?

Well, I figured it's our first dinner
together, so I whipped up some of the

restaurant's greatest hits.

Mama Thanda noodles and New Year's Eve
pakora. Mmm.

I love how you pivot from track star to
master chef.

Where's Tara? Oh, she's just taking a
shower.

How are the interviews?

Like I said, because they can't seem to
understand that the gap in my resume

isn't because I was lazy or out of the
loop. It's because I was busy being a

wife. Yep. And a mom. And a part -time
teacher. And my husband's judo

You know, I read that a stay -at -home
mom has the same amount of work as three

full -time jobs.

Yes, exactly.

Hey, bud.

How was the bake sale?

Great. Everyone loved the brownie.
Except Bridget's mom, Diane.

She said they weren't homemade.

That's my bad.

I should have been on bake sale duty.

What else do you know?

Well, sweetie, you remember Sid and
Nick?

Well, of course she does.

Except I don't remember you being the
tall.

All right. Well, I should go. It was
nice seeing you two again. Sentara, my

regards. No, no, no. You know what? Why
don't you, um... Why don't you stay?

I said you made enough food, right?

Um...

Uh, yeah, I made... Yeah, I made a lot.
Yeah, I don't know.

I don't want to crash your party.

Please, Dad, I didn't get to show you my
friend's project.

Well, if it's okay with your mom,
then... Please, Dad.

Sure, bud.

Yeah.

I'm all the merrier.

Cheers.

Oh, this is cozy.

So, Peter, how's business?

Yeah.

Lauren said you've been all about that.

Right. Well, I've been focused so that
we wouldn't have to worry about our

future. No one was worried.

Well,

you've both built a really beautiful
home here.

Thanks. It's where Steph's grown up, so
we're keeping it.

Where are you staying?

I found a place by work. It's got a
park, so that's pretty awesome, right,

Steph? Yeah, it's okay.

Okay. It's got a gigantic slide and a
splash pad.

It's pretty great, right?

I guess.

Okay.

All right.

Who wants some dessert so we can wrap it
up?

Oh, I get it. You know what?

Peter, Laura, why don't you guys head in
and grab the dessert, and we'll start

clearing up.

I'll get my project ready to show Dad.

All right.

Well, I think this whole setup to prove
he has one foot in the door failed.

So, the best thing.

Is to help Laura get on with things.

After you?

Well, I was certain that I felt
something.

All I felt was uncomfortable.

Oh, did

you see that?

What? The way they're moving around each
other.

I mean, they're so in sync. That is a
sign.

No, that is like walking around on a
horse to let it know you're there.

How do you know that?

Well, I did a thing and you get a horse
derby once.

What?

Hey. Hey. Oh, um, Sid just wanted me to
let you know that she's taking stuff to

school. Oh, thanks for that.

You know, Bev really loves hanging with
you guys.

Yeah, well, we do too.

You know, dinner last night was really
nice, all of us together.

Maybe the three of you should do it
again, you know, just to show Steph that

parents are getting along.

I don't think I could fake it anymore
now that I know that he's dating.

Well, I mean, would you be faking it?

I felt the vibe. And there was the key
thing, and you still hadn't signed the

papers. I mean, maybe you called us here
for more than just moral support.

Okay, fine.

Yes, I did hesitate with the papers, but
that's just because it's a really big

deal.

Yeah, it is.

But maybe it's also something else.

Mmm, I forgot how good these pecoras are
for breakfast.

We have to help, Laura.

So you agree. We need to help her move
on.

No.

Because she's not even sure how she's
feeling, so all of this could just not

even be over.

Fine.

Then we will set her up a dating
profile.

That'll get her feeling something.

Yeah, that's not what I meant, Tara.

Hey, Laura, perfect.

We were just saying how fun it would be
to set up your dating profile.

How about we take some pics?

Right now?

I don't know if I'm made up enough for
that.

You look beautiful.

Okay.

I am so not participating in that.

So, what do you want to say?

Um, let's see. I love art.

And my daughter, of course.

Yes, good, good. Keep going.

I love collecting art.

But I guess that's the same as the whole
loving art thing, right?

You know what? Maybe we wait and think
on all of this later.

Oh, I know. What about the gallery, the
one you wanted to open? That's exciting.

Yeah, I mean, it would be, but... It
never happened.

Well, make it happen.

Okay, look at all the art in here. I
mean, it's already like a gallery.

And how fabulous would gallery owners
sound on your profile, huh?

I mean, I have been following an
incredible group of upcoming artists I

love to showcase.

And you have such a great eye.

Right, Nick?

Yeah, you really do.

Yeah. Right, I do have a great eye.

I think that's what you should focus on.

The art.

You know what?

I'm going to do it.

I'm going to call up an agent, I'm going
to go up there, and I'm going to find

myself my own space for my art gallery.

Perfect.

Post profile?

Yeah, that's what we're doing, right?

Oh, gosh.

Hey, what'd I miss?

What?

Need a bit of brightening. Well, not
that little artwork can't take care of.

Oh.

It's my son.

I'm sorry.

Oh, it's okay. Go ahead, take it. I'm
going to poke around.

Buenos dias.

Uh, hello.

Who are you?

I'm Carlos.

I live upstairs in my studio.

I saw you in here and wanted to
introduce myself to this beautiful

Lauren.

It's my pleasure.

Are you writing?

Oh, I don't know yet. I want to open an
art gallery, but this is the first place

I've seen. Ah, fellow artist.

Oh, no, I'm not an artist, but I do
love.

In all its form. Like you.

I mean, because you, you are an artist.
I'm assuming because you said...

Yes, I am.

I am. Okay.

Well, Lauren, I'm sure if you write this
space, you'll transform it into one of

an image of beauty.

Until I help him with the game.

I'll take it.

Great.

You know, I'm really glad that Lauren
was inspired to open her gallery, but I

wish there was a way to find out if
there's something between her and Peter.

And I don't think dating is the way to
make that happen.

I would not end on that, by the way.

You want to know where his head is at,
then here.

I just sent him a message running to
you.

What? Why?

Relax.

It wasn't really me, okay? It was my
dummy profile, Jolene.

Hot, huh?

Why do you have a dummy profile?

You know, when I want to just cruise.

I'm sorry, can we just get back to the
point here? What did you send to him?

Just that I liked his profile.

A lot.

And now, depending on how Peter
responds, we're going to know if he's

or not. And if he has, well, what's good
for the goose is good for the gander.

Here's that proposal you wanted.

Thank you. You got a message from
Jolene.

Wow. See?

I told you it was a good idea to get
back out there.

Okay, don't get too excited. I only
signed up because I was pissed Lauren's

changing her name. Because you're
getting divorced.

Yeah, so I'm told.

He's had a wave.

What does that mean?

Nothing, really.

Okay, well, is it like a high or like a
hey over here or noncommittal?

For now.

Eh, not bad.

Oh, she's cute.

What are you doing?

Nothing, just fishing.

Give me that. Hang on, hang on. Oh, this
one's a solid match. No, no, no,

seriously. Her name is Serena, she's
great with kids, and she's in marketing.

All right, just give it up already.

Okay, but I'm telling you, you need to
get back out there.

Your wife has.

What do you mean?

It's time you came to the bar of the
diplomat, my friend. Because the single

malt's not the only thing available.

Is that him?

No, that one's for me.

Ooh, Sam.

Isn't that cute?

Hey! God, guess what? What? I signed a
lease!

Really? Yes! That's great!

So cute and eclectic. And there's this
artist, Carlos, who lives upstairs.

And he is so fine.

Like, throw him in a frying pan.

Sizzling. Hot.

He kissed my hand.

That's where I swoon. Like the girl that
you watch in the movies, Nick.

Oh!

Um, yeah.

That's a bonus.

Right? Thank you.

Okay, now I just need to go and figure
out what pieces to bring in.

Oh, shoot. I've got to pick up Steph.

Oh, we can do that. You sure?

That'd be great. She has to be at a
sleepover tonight, so she'll only pack

bag when she comes home.

Thanks, guys.

I'm so excited!

Yeah!

Well, I guess she doesn't need that
dating app anymore.

No.

Because now we have a much bigger fish
to fry, and his name is Carlos.

We should just let this go. Let her have
some fun, if you know what I mean.

Well, it's not really fun if it means
that there's no chance of her and you

-know -who getting back together.

But if she doesn't know, she still loves
you -know -who, and vice versa.

Well, hey, the only thing he sent to
Jolene was a known committal wave,

I know Mom and Dad still love each
other.

Of course they do, sweetie.

And they're always going to.

Some of my friend's parents who got
divorced told him that, too.

But they really don't. But Mom and Dad
do.

How can you be so sure?

Because they both go sleep on one side
of their bed.

Looks like the other part of them is
missing.

Hey, Bug.

You have about an hour before you need
to be at Bridget's. Why don't you grab

yourself a snack?

And if you guys are good, I'm going to
go to Peter's office before he leaves

the day.

I was hoping he'd loan me one of these
incredible art pieces I gave him for his

30th.

Look. You should butter him up with some
cookies that I made earlier.

Um, okay.

But you're still coming by the gallery
later, right? Of course.

Bye, baby.

See you later.

Good luck.

Lettuce.

Is Peter around?

Is that why she smelled so bad? Yes.

Well,

I gotta say, Peter, I'm so glad that my
silly wave turned into a last -minute

coffee date. Yes, I'm glad I messaged
you back. I mean, I can see why we

We have so much in common. Same
occupation, same... a lot of things.

Really? Apparently, yes, including that
meeting I have with your colleague

upstairs in five minutes. Just another
amazing connection we happen to have.

Right. Yeah.

Well, I hope that we can do this again.
I was thinking maybe we do cocktails or

dinner next time.

Sounds great. Yeah. Good luck with your
meeting.

Thank you.

Wait. With that?

Yes, that was Serena.

You were right.

She's a solid match.

Come on, let's wrap up the day so you
can give me all the deets.

Hey, where'd my paintings go?

Yeah, it's so urban chic.

Great. Glad you like it.

So is that the painting?

Mm -hmm.

Peter must be impressed you're doing all
this.

I wouldn't know because he's too busy on
a date with Serena.

Perfect match on Into You. Are you sure
it was a date?

Oh, I'm sure.

Do you know what?

It's okay.

because that ship has sunk, but my ship
is ready to set sail.

Look at me.

I'm a whole new woman, and I'm so ready
to start my life over again the way that

I planned, which includes finding
someone who appreciates me.

Peter David, get art.

Oh, God.

Knock, knock.

Carlos.

Hi. Hi. So good to see you. You too.

Oh, to me, my friend? This is Nick and
Tara.

Hi. Ladies, it is a pleasure.

Oh, it so could be. Tara.

This is for you, as a welcome.

It's horchata, a Spanish liquid made
from tiger nuts.

Oh.

It will make you roar with pleasure.

Thank you.

Now, please, explain to me. Is that a
Geraldo?

It is.

Oh, my.

Really? Mm -hmm.

Asombroso. I mean, I am a huge admirer
of his work. I mean, look at this

strokes. He really has an amazing way of
making the teeth feel like it's

movement.

Who is it?

Exactly.

Yeah, it's just so good.

Yeah. We should probably get busy,
though. We have to get the place ready.

know, Carlos, I'm thinking of getting
some pieces from local artists.

I would love for you to see.

And I would love nothing more.

Great. I'll bring them here tomorrow.

I will see you then.

Cuidados.

Mm -hmm.

Well, I think someone may have just
boarded your ship.

What do you think?

Scarf or no scarf?

Olay, I like it.

Spanish silk? You know it.

Yeah, I mean, it's a little warm for a
scarf.

It's silk, not wool.

All right, wish me luck. Thank you so
much for watching, Steph.

Adios.

One of us should have gone to the buffer
between her and Carlo.

Why? Peter went on a date? Why should we
tell him?

Who said anything about a date?

Peter and that girl went out for coffee.
And you can't spoil what Lauren and

Peter had.

Have with coffee.

Don't worry, Nick.

I got this covered.

Because if anyone can bring Lauren and
Peter back together, it's Beth.

Buenos dias.

Carlos, hi.

Wow.

It's like it's screaming at me through
the canvas.

I know.

I've never known an artist to make an
image that just captures my soul like

Bianca does.

He really is an incredible online
talent.

One which you saw.

You know, with this amazing eye you
have, your gallery will be a great

Thank you.

What is this?

Clara, it's what we would have back home
in the summer.

Half beer, half lemonade.

Oh,

it would make a killing at the school
barbecue.

Salud.

Here, I brought you something I have
made.

It's my recent project.

I hope you like it.

Oh, wow.

This, this is fantastic.

What inspired you to make this? What's
it called?

This one is called...

I make them all I feel.

I close my eyes and move my hands over
the stone.

Each beautiful imperfection tells me a
story.

Once the story has been told, I begin.

It's funny.

Daughter? Just at a project like that.

Eyes closed thing.

I think it's right there. It's hot.

Here.

I'm sorry. No. It's okay.

It's okay. No, it's not.

You, you...

You're hot, okay? And I mean, first out
the oven hot, and I'm not married for

what seems like a minute.

I mean, I literally just signed off my
first dating site.

I understand.

Thank you.

Yeah.

So, what about you? Any serious
relationships?

If you mean have I been in love, yes.

I am in love every day.

Because I don't believe love is serious.
Because it is everything.

And if you think everything is serious,
then you're really not living.

No?

Well,

I'll be living very soon again after I
take care of a few other things.

And on that note...

I should really get back to getting the
gallery ready, but thank you. Of course,

of course.

And please, keep this sculpture as a
gift.

My mom's are okay.

I think they're out making what she
calls charcuterie.

Oh, like a platter with cheeses and
meat?

Yeah. She always used to make one for
the parties she and my dad had.

Everyone always said they were the best.
Well, there's a reason. We called your

parents the host with the most.

I'm sure they've planned some pretty
great parties for you.

And I heard you have a birthday coming
up.

I do, but...

I don't think they're going to plan
together this time.

Because, you know.

Well, I think if you want them to plan
it, I'm sure they will.

I think I get why my mom calls you guys
the love club.

Why don't you go inside and pick up more
cupcakes for the birthday ring store?

I'll be right there.

Okay.

I have a job for you, too.

I hope Sid's right and this works.

Well, I'm only here for the kids.

Knock, knock.

I hope we're not interrupting.

Actually, I was just going to make a
call. We need to talk about your

birthday. Yeah, because you and Lauren
are going to plan it. Oh, I don't know.

haven't spoken to Lauren about it. But
you should, because I think Steph's

expecting something pretty special.
Yeah, and the two best people to make

happen are her parents.

So why don't you come by the house
tonight? We will make sure that we are

your hair, and then you and Lauren can
get to brainstorming. And you only have

two days left, so... Okay, fine. I will
be there.

Great. Great.

This won't need something.

Yeah. Yeah.

Hey, guys, I'm back.

Mom, Dad's here.

Oh, yeah.

What do you need, Peter?

Well, your friends reminded me that we
have a birthday party to plan, so I

thought I could lend a hand.

Yes.

Really?

Where are they? They went to grab
dinner.

Come on, Mom. You and Dad always plan
the best birthday parties.

This year shouldn't be different, right?

Quite not.

All right, so, Steph, what about a
unicorn theme party? My creative team

tells me they are really big right now.

Or we can do a ninja -themed party. We
can have obstacle courses and prizes.

Oh, that's pretty good.

Actually, I know what kind of party I
want.

I want an inclusive, gender -neutral
party with no stereotypes.

Oh, okay.

Then that will be the party.

Thanks, Dad.

You're welcome.

Me too.

Thanks, Dad.

I can't wait to see what you guys are
going to plan.

Pretty amazing, huh?

It is.

Except now we have to meet her
expectations, so if you're too busy, I

it. No, I've got time, and Steph wants
us both on this, so... Fine.

Okay, well, the first thing off the list
is no prince or princesses.

What if we do a costume party?

That way we could have a mask -making
station. That way people could choose

they want to be.

That's great.

So we have a mask -making station, no
gender stereotypes, and... We just need

some games.

You know, speaking of games, you
remember that toga party we had?

You tied a little toga garter around
your thigh.

You were the only one in the party to
come up with that genius little

It was an original idea.

And a lot easier to take off than the
one you wore on your wedding dress.

That's because you're trying to take it
off with your teeth in front of the

entire wedding party.

Your dad wasn't very impressed, was he?
No.

Oh, boy.

Well,

I know you got other things to do and
people to get back to. Yeah, yeah.

I'm going to just say goodbye to Steph.

Peter, you're going to be there, right?
The party?

Yeah, of course.

I wouldn't miss it.

Hey. How was party planning?

Well, thanks to your shenanigans, Peter
and I are now throwing an inclusive,

gender -neutral party.

I like it.

Yeah, so do I.

You know what? You're right.

We should be planning stuff for a date
together.

It's for the greater good.

Yes, it is.

I have dinner.

I'll take it into the kitchen. All
right.

What's that?

My social media page for the gallery.

It already looks more interesting than
my dating profile.

So, how was the hot artist today?

He's fine.

But, I mean, it could have been really
fine when I chickened out.

I'm sorry to disappoint.

Look, if you're not ready, that's cool.

So is Peter going to be at the party
too?

Yeah, he says he'll be there.

And honestly, he may miss an occasional
parent -teacher meeting, but he's never

missed a birthday.

Look, I know I don't talk a lot about my
dad leaving because there's nothing to

say. He left.

That was that.

I never saw him again.

So even though Peter does put his career
first a lot of the time,

They'll show that what it really
mattered

Now

how about that dinner I'll be right
there

Got to be Voroshar.

Oh, good score.

100. We've got 50. We've got 100.
Russell?

Thank you.

Well,

looks like Laura and Peter have done it
again. This party rocks.

Okay.

Wow, George.

Wonderful use of colors.

All right, baby girl, what you got?

Mom, don't look. It's a surprise.

Okay, okay.

Only when you're done, I'll put it up in
my gallery.

Gallery?

Yeah, I'm finally doing it.

Wow. That's amazing.

Congratulations. Thank you.

Heads up.

We're just mom and coming.

Oh, boy. Okay.

Interesting party, Lauren.

Peter.

Thank you, Diane.

I have to ask.

Are these acrylic paints all made here?

Because I know some of the foreign
brands, they may not list any toxic

ingredients. Um, let me, let me, um,
check here.

Oh, they're totally fine.

Nothing to fear?

Although, I would watch out for the
cookies I brought.

They, um, they came from a box.

A box?

Oh, my gosh. Watch for it. Thank you.

Look. All right, you ready?

Okay, what you got?

I think I have the perfect work of art
for your gallery.

Okay.

Ooh.

What?

You don't think this could replace a
painting you stole from my office?

I didn't think you'd notice that day.

And for the record, I only borrowed it.

Mm -hmm.

Well, I think that your gallery is going
to be a huge success.

I mean, it is your passion, so.

Really? Mm -hmm.

Thought you'd forgotten it.

Of course not.

I'm sorry if it seemed that way.

That is still not going in my gallery.

Oh. Well, listen, despite you trying to
butter me up, okay, that will not be in

my gallery.

No.

Ouch. Okay.

Just one second.

Oh, shoot.

I've got to have a few lights being
delivered there in a couple hours.

I can take Steph home after the party.

No, it's okay. I can ask the girl to
watch her. No, I know, but it's my

daughter's birthday.

Plus, I'd like to help out.

All right.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

Well, even I got to admit, that look has
nothing to do with horses.

Okay.

Yes.

Popcorn is ready.

It smells so good.

You know what?

Daddy's pretty hungry. I might just have
this all to myself.

No.

It's open.

Hey, guys.

It's a little urban camp out.

Yep, why don't you come in, Mom?

Um, okay.

Oh, we have to go home, okay?

Oh, excuse me.

Whoa! Actually, can I stay here and
sleep in a tent?

I said it was okay, only if it's cool
with you.

Sure, of course. Whatever the birthday
girl wants.

Yes, we're going to get some supplies.

So,

how'd it go with the lights?

Oh, wow. They illuminate the pieces
beautifully.

So they'll be amazing for when the
gallery opens, which is great because

got at least a dozen new artists coming
and some serious collectors.

Okay. Well, if you want, I could get my
marketing team to put some momentum

behind it, you know, get the gallery
trending and all that.

Oh, that'd be great. Thank you. No
problem.

Actually, I'm going to step out and
think about it here.

Okay. So...

How's work going for you?

Good.

I'm actually putting together a proposal
to cook this.

They're entering the meal kit space.

Actually, I've got it right here if you
want to take a look.

Now, you know I'm not your pseudo
-assistant anymore, right?

Hey, you're not my pseudo -anything.

It's just... I trust you.

Okay.

Now, you'll see it has all the standard
points, healthy, budget -friendly, easy.

We just need something to make it stand
apart.

Okay, well, what if you market it, you
know, not just lunch and dinner, but

different moments, like dinner parties,
book club.

Sunday night football.

Yes, exactly.

You know, just food made easy.

Right? Okay.

What's up?

Nothing.

It's just we always made a good team.

It still makes me wonder what happened.

It's like I told you. It just became all
about Team Peter.

I know, but... I never asked you not to
do the things you wanted.

Right, but you stopped asking what I
wanted.

You should have told me how you felt.

Maybe I should have.

Hey.

Hey.

I've got an extra pillow if you want to
stay. It can be like our camping trip.

Oh, baby, that sounds like a lot of fun,
but I have Nick and the girls at the

house, okay?

And I promise I'll pick you up in the
morning with your favorite smoothie.

Hey, excuse me, little lady.

Where's my pillow?

You're too big for the tent, Dad.

Wow, I'm too big.

He's right, you know.

Come here.

Good night, bud.

All right.

Good night, Peter.

Good night. And, uh, hey, thank you.

Anytime.

I didn't want to confuse that by fame.

It's hard enough on her already.

I get that.

But did you want to stay the night?

I mean, maybe a part of me did.

It doesn't matter anyway because Peter's
moving on.

But he did offer to help market the
gallery.

That's something, right?

Whoa. Is that a wine?

It is.

I forgot to cancel the subscription that
Peter and I have.

When a cape came in, we'd have our own
little wine tasting with the blindfolds

and everything.

Oh, I'm naughty.

You know, we would be more than happy to
play the wine tasting game with you.

And I could even get some cheese to come
with the wine.

You know what?

That is a plan I cannot say no to.

But first, I gotta head over to the
gallery and meet the fun guys.

But I promise I'll be back in time for a
little cocktail hour. Wait, you will

have the wine breathing.

This is going to be fun.

It is, but not for us.

I'm sorry.

Of course, cows.

Art lives in the imagination of the
people.

I bought this thing ten years ago.

I've been paying for it every year since
we met.

Ten years.

Why wait such a long time?

I think it's my turn.

Then let's make a date.

To celebrate.

No, you don't need to do that.

It's a moment to mark in history.

A new and exciting chapter in your life.

Here.

Pass in your moment.

Then call me.

Hey, guys.

So, when are you going to be back?
Because Peter's going to be here in a

Well, we thought it'd be fun to take
Steph out for pizza, and then she

remembered it's her dad's day.

So, if it's cool, we'll drop her at his
place and stay a couple hours, and then

we'll do cocktails.

Uh, yeah, yeah.

That'll be great. I'll let him know.

I'll see you guys in a bit.

Great, bye.

Yes.

Amazing.

Look, love board. Thank you very much.

So should we have pineapples? No. Ew.

Hello?

In here.

Hey. Hey.

Is that ready to go?

You know, I was just texting you.

The girl took her out and didn't realize
that you were coming.

But they promised to bring her back to
your place in a couple hours, if that's

okay. Yeah, of course. No problem.

Is this all from the wine subscription?

It is.

I keep forgetting to cancel it.

Let's see.

Well, maybe.

That's a good thing. I hear this Barolo
is excellent.

Well, maybe we could try a bottle or
two.

I mean, unless you have a plan.

No plans.

Of course, she's still in the same
place.

Sure is.

I'm on it.

Hmm. Mm -hmm.

Okay, I'm definitely calling this one a
Pinot.

Really? Okay.

I'm going to say with the sour cherry
flavor, I'm going with the Beaujolais.

Ooh, Beaujolais. Mm -hmm.

Beaujolais. All right, all right.

Let's see.

Boom. Boom.

You all right? Okay, right again.

Wow, I guess I'm a little off my game.

I mean, I do have a bit of an edge with
the girls being here. I've been priming

my taste buds a little bit. Oh, just a
little bit? Just a little bit. You know

I've seen you before in action, right?

Yes, you have.

You remember that New Year's where you
all met?

Mm -hmm.

We made some pretty big decisions that
night.

Any regrets from that night?

No. How could I?

You have stuff.

You know what?

Wait here.

Where are you going?

I'm going to get you something that's
going to help your game a little bit.

yeah? I'll be right back.

All right.

Come on, these gotta be photoshopped.

Peter! I got something to give you a
little edge.

Oh.

You leaving?

Uh, yeah.

Sorry, uh, something came up and I
really should get back for Steph.

Yeah, of course.

But I'll make sure to cancel the wine
subscription unless you want it. No, I'm

good. Okay, well.

All right, well, enjoy your night.

See you soon.

actually peter was here for a bit so we
did a little tasting it's plenty that's

over if you guys want so was it kind of
like old time yeah it's a naughty

blindfold actually i don't think after a
separation it's a good idea to go there

well i get it it's complicated you know
like the meryl streep movie where she

sleeps with her ex -husband and it's
really confusing for her but they

a really beautiful romance i actually
did see that one on a plane and she ends

up with the other guy she was dating

Yes, but it could have gone either way
because her husband still loved her.

Okay, that's a nice thing you're trying
to do there. But it's okay, because in

three days, my dreams are going to be
fulfilled, and I'll finally have my

gallery. Besides, Peter's not the only
one down there now.

Wait, what?

After Peter left, I texted Carla.

Are we going to take a tip or not?

Apparently, there's a ghillie exhibit
going on in the lobby. So this time,

you'll be living vicariously through me.

But you're not going to do anything too
crazy, though, right? I mean, that's one

bridge. Once you cross it, it could
change everything.

Everything has changed, Meg.

It's time I moved on.

I heard your proposal for that meal
service brought down the house this

Yeah, it did. I can't take all the
credit. Lauren was a real brilliance

it. Really?

And how did that go down?

Just like it always did.

Huh.

Sorry.

Well, at least that's perfect.

What? I asked Serena to join our team.
We're going for drinks tonight to

it. So this is just business?

What happened to her being the perfect
match in other ways?

Yeah, I told you. I'm just not there.

Too bad.

But at least you're taking one for the
office team.

All right.

By the way, something's missing in here.

Sure it is.

I should have went shopping.

Nothing I have since first date with an
artist.

Don't worry.

You're going to look fabulous in
whatever you wear.

Oh, I know.

What about this?

I mean, I wore it on my European
honeymoon. I mean, it's just so fit.

Why am I stressing about this?

Laura, you don't have to follow through
with this date if you don't want to. It

took me ten years to move on from Byron,
which I get at a long time. But if I

had tried when I wasn't ready, then I
would have never met Theo.

The man that I should be with.

I know.

I just don't want this to be the gallery
all over again with me waiting in the

wings, getting angrier by the day while
Peter gets to do whatever he wants.

Don't worry.

We'll be your backup in case you need to
know.

Look at me.

I feel you're challenging us, daring us
to look away, knowing it is impossible.

Oh, well, not that piece.

This one has a story I would love to
peel back.

That's beautiful.

Oh, God, isn't it beautiful?

Guys, is it just me or is he eyeballing
that waitress? Oh no, he's on it.

Should we intervene?

No, let's wait for her cue.

What do you think about this one?

Very beautiful.

I will, I have to.

Carlos.

He's a Rioja.

Very complex flavors. Thank you.

You know,

I'm beginning to see what you mean about
the whole.

Love is everywhere.

There is nothing wrong with appreciating
the beauty that surrounds us, no?

Right, but just how often do you
appreciate?

As often as I can.

My colleague's been trying to get me to
come here

for drinks.

Apparently the single mouth is
excellent.

Hey, hi.

Are you ready to get out of here?

No. No, thank you. I don't need my ears
cleaned.

What happened?

I don't know.

I do.

Look who just showed up.

Oh, my gosh.

Is that the coffee date?

Speechless. His use of color, it makes
me want to weep.

You are so full of life tonight.

Of course I am. Tonight is a celebration
de moi.

Celebration? To my gallery.

So I have to say, Peter, I am thrilled
about your job offer and a bit

disappointed.

Only because I guess this means that us
having an official date is out of the

question.

Peter?

Sorry. What were you saying?

Dating. You and I.

Yes. No.

Not if we're going to be working
together.

Of course.

Are you okay?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm just great.

About your gallery.

I would like to ask if you would display
the sculpture I gave you.

Oh.

Oh, yes. Of course.

Especially since you use these amazing
hands.

Oh, really?

Mm -hmm.

Well, then maybe you'd like to see my
latest sculpture.

Back at my studio later.

Sunderbar.

I'm just going to use the ladies' room
real quick, okay?

Okay. I'll be right back.

Okay.

That's her.

That's the one he's been dating. And now
they're here on another date, but he

should be at home with Steph. But you're
also on a date. Yeah, and you do look

pretty comfy.

Oh, please. I'm just doing that to rub
it in Peter's face.

Look, guys, I am not trying to be
another notch of beauty for Carlos,

Oh, God. I got to get out of here.

I could pull the fire alarm.

Oh, you know what?

I'm going to tell Carlos that I'd love
to go back to his place.

Once we get outside, I'll ditch him and
I'll meet you guys at the house, okay?

Are you sure?

Yeah, it's fine. You guys talk out. I
got this.

You know what?

Do you want another drink?

Actually, I'm still good.

I'm going to get another.

I'll be right back. Okay.

Another scotch, please.

Peter, what are you doing here? I
thought you were home with Steph.

I had a meeting, so I got a sitter.

Meeting. Hi.

Anyway, this is Carlos, a very talented
artist.

Carlos, that's my ex, Peter. Ah, the one
who released this force into the world.

So tell me, Peter, what is your favorite
piece of Gilly?

What?

The art. You must appreciate it, no?

Yeah, I appreciate it. You know, it's
Gilly.

It's so... You know what? Hey, we are
actually going to go check out

His masterpiece.

That's his private studio.

Uh -huh.

So, I'll let you get back to your
meeting.

Shall we?

Yes.

Buenas noches.

Buenas noches.

Is everything all right?

Yeah. Of course, why wouldn't it be? My
wife is here wearing a dress she wore on

her honeymoon, but now she's wearing it
with some Latin lover.

I thought your profile said that you
were separated.

I'm sorry. This isn't happening.

Peter?

No? I'll get us a vaccine.

Actually, Carlos, I'm sorry.

I may have been leading you on, although
I don't think you're too worried. But

either way, I'm not going with you.

I'm not going to your studio.

would have paid them for your type.

That's funny.

It's really kind of like yours.

She's a new work colleague, Lauren.

Please.

That's all you do coming back from your
perfectly matched coffee date.

That was before I decided to offer her a
job and before I... Before what?

Peter?

Nothing.

I hope you have a good rest of your
night, Lauren.

Hey. Hey. How you doing?

Retired. Went back to the gallery late
last night because I forgot these artist

contracts. Yeah, we figured.

Oh.

So, Peter wants nothing to do with me
anymore.

Why? What happened?

Peter caught Carlos kissing me.

Wait, what?

I thought you said you weren't into him.
I'm not.

He kissed me.

But I'm sure to Peter it looked like I
was a willing participant because I...

I think this whole dance is over.

Well, at least you're showing him what
he's losing.

You know, a woman who's gone out to get
what she wanted.

You're talking about the gallery, right?

Of course.

I know.

As amazing as it is, it doesn't feel as
great as it should.

Which is why I was the one that told
Peter that New Year's, that I would put

dreams on hold.

We thought you agreed to tell him what
you wanted.

I did.

What I want is to be with him.

If I had stayed and opened that gallery
and just let him go, my dreams wouldn't

have been fulfilled because Peter was
the man of my dreams.

He is the man of my dreams.

How could they come true if he's not in
them?

So beautiful.

Yeah, well, it's like I realized that a
little too late.

No. No, you haven't.

That's right.

You can't give up.

The kiss with Carlo.

Mm. In the famous words of Ross Geller,
you were on a break.

Then why did you start quoting TV shows?
Who cares? She's right.

You didn't even want that kiss. No, you
did not.

So you're going to cross the bridge?

You can so walk yourself back from that.
Because you haven't done anything

wrong. No, I didn't. Did I?

Nope. Not a thing.

So, today, we're going to get out of
your way, but when Peter drops off

what are you going to do?

I'm going to tell him.

I want to give it a chance.

Yes, you are.

Steph,

we got to get going.

Hey, bud.

What's going on?

I need a chance because Richard invited
me over for a swim.

Okay, go ahead.

Hey. Hey.

We ran into them on the way here. I hope
that's okay.

Oh, that's okay. We don't have anything
planned, so... Well, um, here's your

stuff, and, uh... These are for you.

You didn't have to give these back.

Yeah, actually, I do.

This is yours and Steph's house now, not
mine.

Good luck with everything, Warren.

See ya.

Bagging heavy, face pale.

But who cares about it now when the past
ain't a

golden trail?

You slide to the touch, underground,

summer gold.

Look, I know since you got here, you're
looking for all the signs that you

wanted to work it out. Well, got a sign.

It's done.

This can't be happening.

It's true.

I know because last night my dad moved
his pillow to the middle of the bed.

Hey, big day.

Sure is.

Why don't you and I go for a quick 2K?
Get all those feel -good endorphins

going. I think I'm okay.

Seriously, guys, I'm fine.

Look, this has all been one grand
voyage.

One that's taught me to never give up on
my dreams for anyone or anything.

So, on that note, I just want to make
sure that tonight's opening is a

Hey, you are the hostess with the
mostest. And I've got the wardrobe

And the gallery is perfectly
unpretentiously chic.

And you even got entertainment.

Honestly, I don't know what I'd do
without you guys. Making parent

cupcakes for baking.

I'll never do that.

Now go.

We've got stuff covered.

We'll meet you at the party.

Okay. Thanks, guys.

She is so not okay.

Not even a little bit.

Is my mom here? I want to show you the
painting I was working on. The one for

birthday. Oh, um, she's busy getting
ready for the opening. But can we see

Sure.

Wow. That's really good.

So good that it should be at the gallery
opening tonight.

Really?

Really. Because we are not giving up.

Great. Put those in.

One of my favorites.

This is a local artistic artist who uses
textures to really express himself.

It's incredible.

I'll let you enjoy.

What exactly is this?

I don't know.

But it did get sold, so art is clearly
in the eyes of the beholder.

Oh, my gosh.

It's Peter.

I'll be right back.

Peter, you came.

So, this is the vision.

Yes, it is.

It's incredible, really.

Even for a guy who doesn't get art, I
can see what you've done in special.

No, you know what? I think you actually
do get it. Oh, yeah?

I'll get it in just a little bit. Just a
tiny bit. Oh, yeah.

I'm glad you came.

All your friends called and told me I
wouldn't want to miss Stephanie's art of

bailing. Hi, everyone.

Can I get your attention, please?

Before I hand this off, I'd like you to
give it up for your host, Lauren

Sanders.

And now I want you to give it up for a
very special artist

who is here and has a few words she'd
like to say.

of my mom. She always knows how to see
what's beautiful, even if it's hard to

imagine. So I hope she sees what's
beautiful in this painting I drew when

and dad threw the best party ever.

I named it My Family.

It's beautiful, sweetie.

It's so good.

Oh, crap.

You know what? I should get going.

Congratulations, Lauren.

You know what? Not again.

Peter.

Look, I know how it looked like the
other night, but it's not what I wanted.

It's not what I ever wanted because all
I really... I

don't
