All language subtitles for The Love Club s01e04 Taras Tune.eng

Yeah,

no, I'm good.

Sounds like someone's having fun.

Well...

There's been a date, so, yeah.

Happy New Year.

Oh, wait.

Gotta get that selfie to remember this
night by.

Right.

Perfect.

Have a good one. You too.

Hey, Nick.

What was I thinking?

Hey, guys.

Happy New Year.

I'll see you in there.

What were you thinking?

What? Well, you just said, what was I
thinking?

Oh, um, just guy stuff.

It's New Year's.

There's a lot of pressure.

So what happened? You get stood up?

Yeah, something like that.

You know, it shouldn't be this
complicated, right? To find that person

just, like, completes you.

Isn't that a line from a movie?

Yeah. One of the best.

I mean, when Renee rose up and joined
him, it was just... Wow.

You know what?

That's what I'm going to do. I'm going
to rise up, and I'm going to ring in

new year.

Hey.

Do you want to come with me?

My interview date totally just found
another hookup to bring all this in

Oh.

Are you serious?

Okay, that's it. We're definitely doing
this thing.

I'm Nick, by the way. Tara. Hi, nice to
meet you.

Oh, Nick.

There you are.

Oh, happy new year.

Oh, I'm good. I'll wait until the
countdown.

I will take that.

Tara, right? Where was the last class?

Well, I am Lauren, your hostess.

Rip them open.

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, for a reason,

take what I want into account.

So does that.

Whoa, whoa. Do you want to sit down?

I need to sit down. I need to sit down.

Oh, you're Sydney, that track star.

That's me.

I made Pecora Thursday.

Thank you.

See, that's a proper kiss.

Hey, you okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

My boyfriend got me.

I'm number four.

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

goalposts changed.

Maybe we should just call ourselves the
Broken Heart 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?

We just have to be the smart, strong
women that we are and start making good

choices. Like, no more into you. You're
not going to find your soulmate on

there. I have to agree with that.

I wasn't looking, but done and done.

Well, I guess that means I'm dumping
Peter.

No. Or you two love each other.

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

Yeah, but remember what you want.

Definitely.

And then maybe I should talk to Byron
and give him another shot.

No. No, no, no.

Four dogs is not a charm.

No.

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.

Oh.

Let's think about it.

To always have each other's backs on the
hearts of men.

To the love club.

Sleepy holiday crowds seem to like it.

Speaking of, this is for you.

Just some goodies that I put together.
Kind of like a stocking, but not.

You're not proposing, are you?

No.

It's just the shelves are pretty clear
now.

I have been thinking that.

What if we started the new year as an
official couple? There we go.

What? What's wrong?

Nothing. No, that's what makes this so
great. Us. We're just hanging out,

fun, right?

Yeah, sure, but... Let's keep it that
way.

Casual. No so -called commitment. God
forbid marriage.

Till death do you part is not a reality.

Wait, are you saying you don't ever want
to commit or marry or... Not if I don't

have to.

Well, okay, I... I... Hey, I get it.

You want to ring in the New Year with
someone who wants all that.

Well, yeah, I mean, I thought... It's
all good.

Seriously.

I should, uh... I should get back to my
set.

Thanks for the thought.

And, uh... See you around, Sam.

people am i right not just because it's
christmas which means new year's is just

around the corner who doesn't love a
fresh start in fact i'm gonna make some

resolutions right here right now because
i am done i'm so done with having to

explain myself so take note that's right
anybody looking to get some of this i

don't want marriage or anything
official, because all that means is that

officially headed for disappointment.
And I have enough of that right here,

working and booking talent and hoping
for my own big break.

So this year, this new year, men...

You won't find your soulmate on there.

Let me guess.

You don't believe in that either.

Oh, you got that right.

Why don't you head out?

I'll wrap up here.

Yeah? Yeah.

Thanks.

Merry ho -ho.

Merry ho -ho.

Uh, Tara?

Uh, we're closed.

Yeah, I know. Uh, but I literally just
rolled into town and I was hoping to

a gig before New Year's.

Can you help me out?

The barman's left, so... That's okay. I
just need your piano.

Knock yourself out!

All is calm, all is bright.

Round yon virgin, O mother and child.

Holy infant so tender and mild.

Sleep in the heavenly peace.

The season.

But I can play something jazzy if you...
No, no, that was, uh... That was nice.

You're booked.

Tomorrow night.

Really?

Thanks.

I'm Noah, by the way.

Tara. Nice to meet you.

So, you're the manager?

Ah, manager, bookie, occasional talent.

So you're chasing the dream, too.

You want one?

Yes. Thank you. I've been on the road a
while.

Where are you coming from?

Oh, a casino gig at the Royalton.

But I got bumped for a retired circus
performer.

You mean you can't do a handstand and
play the piano? You know what? I tried.

Oh, well, I am all too familiar with
those gigs. Birthday parties, cruise

I mean, you're never really appreciated
no matter how good your cover is. God

forbid you don't cover.

I mean, I've written a whole whack of
songs, but no one wants that on a

playlist.

Well, you can play them here.

Thanks.

It's my mom again.

Hey, would you mind taking a quick
selfie?

She's on the other coast. It would make
her stop worrying for like a minute.

Yeah, sure.

So what's the worry?

Oh, that her single daughter will never
tie the proverbial knot, which, if you

were here earlier, you'd know I'm
totally cool with. I know. The last

did, I walked in on the groom with the
bridesmaid.

See? That's what I'm talking about.

I don't need someone else that's just
going to disappoint me.

Because I am great on my own.

Just me.

In fact, you see this?

With this ring, I am officially making a
commitment to myself.

So sorry, Mom, but I'm living this year
how I want.

And what I want is a recording deal.

That's all.

Cheers to that.

Because I heard that Garth Bryant might
be in town scouting.

Garth Bryant of Micah Records. That's
what I heard.

That's why I drove down.

I'm hoping that he hears me and then,
bam, I'll get my recording contract.

Huh. On that note, I should go. I parked
my van in a loading zone.

Oh, but thank you for the gig, for the
drink.

See you tomorrow.

See you.

I'm a bit late with the tidings.

But merry, merry to my three besties.

It will officially be ten years since we
met and single -handedly solved all our

romantic problems like the rock stars we
are.

So, I can't think of any other women I'd
want to share the continuing escapades

of Tara with.

If you're not too busy or burnt out,
let's hop on a video call. And if you

I don't care.

We're doing this.

Thank you. You're welcome.

Ladies.

Happy holidays.

Do we say that even though it's pretty
much over?

What? Excuse me? It is so not over. I
still have 30 homework movies to watch.

Thank you.

Of course you do.

So, is everything okay?

Yeah. Everything's great.

Because I thought you were calling on us
because you were in some kind of

romantic cluster.

No. In fact, I have amazing news.

I'm finally making a commitment.

What? You are? To who?

Myself.

I'm sorry, what?

Yeah, I'm committing to loving myself
and making sure the world knows how fab

am. So, I was thinking, why not make a
party out of it, huh?

So, what do you guys say?

Will you guys help me plan my big day?

Oh, um, when you say big day, do you
mean like a wedding for yourself?

I mean, that's totally a thing now.

God, no. But it could also be like a ten
-year reunion since we took a vow.

How fun would that be?

Theo could handle things at the
restaurant.

Well, yeah, and Josh and I can always
redo New Year's.

Go on a romantic getaway, or... Okay,
okay, we get it.

Now, Lauren, we can't do this without
the hostess with the mostest.

Hmm.

I can use a warm holiday.

Great. Awesome.

I'm gonna have a room rocking and ready.

See y 'all later. Okay, see ya.

What happened?

A few months ago. I follow you on
Instagram. Yeah, who doesn't?

Oh, well, I don't have the time, plus
your fabulous life is just going to be

different.

Well, this club offered me an incredible
deal. Play to work, perform, crash.

Come on.

Hey, you guys will be upstairs.

Heads up, there's only been in a single,
so two of you will have to share.

I'll let the three of you sort that out.

Here's the keys.

I'm going to go finish up at the club,
but we'll catch up later.

Okay.

It's even a 50.

So cute in here.

All right.

So who gets the bed?

I'll go get for this.

Oh, I see. The competitive spirit in you
is alive and well.

Okay.

I'm going to take a look at what Peter
just told me.

The marketing team usually stays up to
date on what's going viral right now,

it's like Tara's on her way.

Okay, so maybe things aren't quite as
bad as she says they are.

You guys are going to love this. I
always make sure the

entertainment I book is quality.

And very cute.

Kyle, can we get a bottle of the house
red? Thanks.

So, give it up. What's the news?

Well, I didn't want to ruin your big
day, and I kind of wanted to surprise

so... Holy crap.

It's gorgeous.

Oh, my gosh. I'm so happy for you.

Thank you.

Don't worry. I'll tell you guys the
story later. It's a long story.

What about you, Sid?

Any wedding bells for you and Theo?

Oh, no. We're thinking of opening up
another restaurant first.

Maybe I can help you decorate it. Yeah.
Well, that's a good idea. You know, you

did an amazing job for my gallery
expansion.

Weren't you and Peter thinking of
renewing your wedding bells?

Yeah, but we're going to do a second
honeymoon first.

Oh. I know.

Grossly adorable.

Well, hey, maybe I'll crash it. I mean,
I should probably treat myself to a

little getaway, right?

Uh, yeah. Well, uh, actually, speaking
of that... Hmm.

Are you sure you're okay?

Yeah.

Why?

Well, it's because of this.

It's New Year.

Men, be damp.

And kiss the year to be Tara.

I mean, that's looking like one of my
greater performances. It is epically

awesome. Right?

Look what came of it.

Come on. Noah there, he got it.

This whole celebration is a kickoff to a
year where all I focus on are my dreams

of becoming a serious singer.

So if a ring on my finger that I put
there myself reminds me of that, then

what's wrong with that?

Yeah, I mean, it did bring all four of
us together again. And we could renew

vows with the New Year's cup.

You do not still have that.

Okay, wait.

Hold on.

My... My interior designer self is a tad
bit confused.

Am I decorating for a New Year's party
or a commitment ceremony?

Both. Okay. Yeah, now I'm thinking I
definitely need a fabulous outfit.

Maybe a new ring, seeing as I ate the
last one.

Hmm? What?

So, cheers, ladies, to the year of Tara
and us.

The love club.

Cheers.

Thank goodness for just around the
block. I'm exhausted.

Well, you guys go on ahead. I'm going to
hang back and sort out entertainment

for the big day.

What? But are you going to be the
headliner for the Year of Tarot?

Of course, which is why I need the best
accompaniment.

I know just the person.

Hey there, piano man.

You think Noah and Tarot are in each
other's other ways?

Well, I don't know.

He's cute. I just don't know if he's
really her type.

Well, what's her type?

I mean, I've never known her to be in an
actual relationship.

Here's a little bread for your jar.

Thanks. Almost enough to buy a whole
loaf.

Well, I got another gig if you want to
buy a loaf and some jam.

Sure. What is it?

How would you like to be my musical
accompaniment for my commitment party?

Wow. You're really going to pull on with
that whole thing, huh? Yeah. Tell my

role.

So what do you say?

I don't know.

Ever since that whole groomed bridesmaid
incident, I don't do those kind of gigs

anymore. Really?

What, did it break your heart?

Maybe a little.

But, you know, you can't write songs
without being a bit of a romantic.

Well, don't worry. This is not a
wedding, so no hearts will be broken.

So those ladies aren't your bridesmaids?
No.

They're just good friends. Helped me
plan the big night.

Come on, what do you say?

You could play some of your original
hits.

Sure. Why not?

Great.

We only have a few days, so tomorrow.

Go over the playlist.

Yes, ma 'am.

See you then.

You know what? I do think it would be
really cute if we called it a wedding.

Just for the invite.

Because, I mean, Sarah is kind of
marrying herself.

And then people will be expecting
something super traditional.

And they'll be shocked.

20 -something... Totally Tara.

Exactly.

Yeah. I just really hope she's doing
this for the right reasons, you know? It

seems like she knows what she wants.

Hey. Oh, good.

Coffee. Yes.

Where's Sid?

She's checking to see if the kitchen is
big enough to cater the party.

Or, you know, whatever you want to call
it.

Great.

Great.

Where are we at with the planning?

Okay, well, first on my list is the
venue, which we have, right?

Yeah, I have the club all booked. Oh,
and?

I threw together a guest list.

Just a small crowd of folks I know will
make it fun. Okay. My office computer

has all the contacts, so feel free to
use it.

Okay, perfect. So, Nick, why don't you
and Sid handle that, and how about you

and I go look at that fab outfit?

Yes.

Let's do this.

You guys have fun, okay? All right.

Let's go.

What are you thinking? So, I was
thinking something chic, like maybe a

Leather. So, like, sequins not together.

Looks like I'm not the only one who
hangs on to stuff.

There we go.

Imitations sent.

Except... What?

I don't know. This list that Tara gave
us, I don't recognize any family on

Do you?

Uh, no, but Tara doesn't really talk
about our family.

What about her mom?

I mean, they're close, right?

I guess.

And we should send her an invitation,
because she should not do this party

without her mom.

I'm sure her contact info's in here
somewhere.

Oh.

Uh, well, I'd say that's a sign.

Hi, Tara's mom.

How are you?

Oh, I'm Nick, and this is Sydney. We're
her friends from college.

Really?

Is she there?

Uh, no. She's out right now with our
other friend, Lauren.

They are shopping for her big day.

Big day?

That's right.

Tara put a ring on it.

She's getting married.

Oh, no, not really. I mean, it's more of
just a party that she's doing.

What are you two doing?

Hello, Tara? Is that you?

Tara?

It's me.

I can't believe it. My prayers have been
answered. You're getting married.

I'm sorry, what?

No, no, not really, no. It's more of a
wedding, a marriage to herself. Her

husband, yeah.

Yeah, I'm marrying a husband.

Yes, yes, that's the one. It's all been
a very, whoo, a whirlwind, so that's why

I haven't told you.

Well, I'm just so happy my little girl
won't be alone anymore.

I know, Mom.

When's the big day?

Oh, well, we haven't figured that out
yet, but listen, I have a work emergency

to deal with, so I have to go, but I
promise I'll call you later.

Love you.

What have you two done?

I'm sorry, Tara. I thought it would be
cute if the invitation said that you

getting married. I mean, you said so
yourself. You're making a vow to

so it's kind of like you're marrying
yourself.

No. Okay, no. It's not the same.

And I know in your world, Nick,
everything is white weddings and roses,

not in mine.

For the record, I don't want to take the
call.

Okay, can we just backtrack here?
Because what I don't understand is, why

just tell your mom that this whole thing
is about you committing to yourself?

Because she would never understand.

But you guys hurt her. She's been
praying for me to find someone.

I mean, look at this.

This.

This is what she sent me last year as a
Christmas gift.

Um... Is this vintage?

It's her old wedding dress.

That's so sweet.

No, it's not. You don't give someone a
wedding dress that's not planning on

getting married.

It is a bit passive -aggressive.

She just doesn't get that I don't need
to be with someone.

But since I'm her only child, she
worries.

And I just keep reassuring her.

How? By making her think that I'm not
alone.

Okay, so remember that New Year's when
we met?

I told Nick that my online date found
someone else to ring in the New Year

But really it was because of me. I told
him to.

Why? Because I just swiped on him to
show my mom I wouldn't be alone.

So instead of being a total jerk, I cut
him loose in exchange for a selfie.

I have spent the better half of my 20s
reassuring my mom so you can understand

why it would crush her to find out I'm
committed to a lifetime of being on my

own. So that's what you're going to do?

That doesn't sound very fab to me.

Well, neither does ending up like her.

I saw what it did to her when my dad
left us.

And I'm not like you guys, okay?

I'm not you, Nick.

A romantic searching for my soulmate.

And Sid, I'm not like you. I've never
pined after anyone.

And Lauren, despite some bumps, you
really found a good guy in Peter.

I'm better on my own.

Okay, so now we just need to figure out
how to fix this whole mom issue.

Why don't you just tell her the
wedding's off?

Yeah, it looks like she's okay with the
fake dates not working out.

You know what?

You're right.

All I need to do is send her a few
selfies of me and my fiance, maybe a

video call, and then wait a couple
weeks, and boom, wedding's off.

That's not what I meant exactly.

Oh, I don't want to ruin her new year.

Plus, this will give me time to soften
the blow.

Yeah, now all I need to do is convince
Noah to play along.

So, this is my, uh, wedding appointment.

Why does everyone keep calling this a
wedding?

Um, that's just a sample of the kind of
songs I play for those gigs, but we can

scratch all of that.

Maybe keep some of the Ed Sheeran.

You know, he's got it all going on. The
song, the voice.

Why don't we play some of your songs?

You've got it all going on, too.

Well, thank you.

But, uh, you know, I consider myself
more of a songwriter.

Yeah, I sing my songs because I have to,
but... I could try singing one of them.

Who knows? Maybe with my voice it'll be
a hit.

Well, that would be good for all sorts
of reasons, including making my parents,

who have a very strong opinion about
what I do, happy.

And, uh, wife, girlfriend, partner?

None of the above, so no judgment.

Great. Because there's this other thing
that I was wondering if you'd help me

out with.

Shoot. Nothing major.

Just a quick video call with my mom and,
you know, my fiancé.

I'm sorry, what?

My mom is one of the ones that thinks
I'm getting married in the traditional

sense, so I just need her to think that
I am for a couple weeks until I can call

the wedding off. Oh, wow.

Okay. No.

Why not?

It won't mean anything.

But that's the problem.

Me saying I'm getting married when I'm
not actually getting married is like bad

luck or something, and I've had enough
of that, so sorry.

I'm going to go, so good luck with all
that.

And, um, yeah, but our first rehearsal?

Tomorrow?

I can bring along some of my original if
you want to hear them.

I do, yeah.

Maybe in the meantime you can just think
about it. Still no.

Yeah. Got it.

No, no, no, no.

No!

Hey, hey, hey!

Come on, it's still holidays, isn't it?

Tara, you've got this.

You've got this. I got this. Right? It's
just your mom.

Okay. Yeah.

My mom. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, people call
their moms all the time. All the time.

All the time. All the time. Yeah. Okay.

Okay. I got this.

Let's do it.

Hey, Mom.

Tara, I've been calling you.

Yeah, I know. I'm sorry. I'm sure you
want to hear more about this whole

married thing.

So, uh...

Well, here goes. Hey, Mom!

Can I call you that? I mean, it's kind
of, it feels kind of weird that I've

never met you, but I am Noah, your
daughter's fiancé.

You are.

It's also new, we're also surprised.

But so, so excited.

Isn't that right, sweetheart?

Yeah, yeah.

We're, yeah, so excited.

Noah, of course.

I recognize you from the photo terrace.

See, you have kind of meds, right? And
one day, you know, in the new year when

things are less busy, I'm sure you will.

On that note, though, we should probably
get going. But I promise I'm going to

get you caught up later. Okay.

Bye, Mom. Love you. Bye. Bye, Mom.

That went really well.

I thought you said this was bad luck.

No worse luck than my van getting towed
by unpaid parking tickets, and it's kind

of where I'm playing my hat right now.
So I kind of need a solid back.

Yeah, I see where you're going with this
whole Mikasa Tsukasa thing, but I can't

help you with the room.

But I'm sure there's a place that you
could park your van.

Like at the back of the club.

Because Noah, I mean, wow.

How great is he for doing that, right?

Yeah, sure.

Park away.

Yeah? Oh, thank you. Yeah.

And I promise, I'm not going to be
parked there forever. Because I've got

feeling that Garth Bryant is coming
through town, and when he does, bam!

I am out of here.

Sweetheart.

No. Not the whole, uh, sweetheart thing.

Too much?

A little bit.

I'm gonna...

I can't believe he's going to be your
accompaniment and your fiancé.

Except isn't your mom going to be
crushed when she finds out you broke off

engagement? Yeah, but at least it'll
give her hope that it could happen one

But it still could.

Well, except for the whole committing to
yourself thing. But that's also about

Tara pursuing her goals.

Although not being pressured is one of
her goals.

Okay, can we get back on point here?
Look, I'm happy. My mom's happy. Noah's

happy because he has a place to park. So
let's just be happy.

I gotta do a little work before I do
rehearsal, so... Oh, but I need you to

sample the cake for the party. Yes, and
Nick needs you to confirm decorations

before she picks it up. Fine.

Let's meet back in the lounge later.

I can't decide if I'm excited or freaked
out.

Oh, I'm officially freaked out.

See this guy?

Did you let me know right away?

You have no boyfriend?

Seriously?

Have you not heard anything I said the
other night?

Don't stop. That was nice.

I'm just goofing around.

Perfect parking spot, by the way.

You know, the sun comes in, warms the
van.

Is that where you live, in your van?

Not always.

Just when I'm out on the road.

It's easier, it's cheaper than finding a
short -term rental.

What about you? You've always worked
here?

The last few months?

Yeah, before that, I was like you.

Stopping from gig to gig.

You mean you've, um, settled in?

If I get my big break, then I'll be out
of here like you.

What's this?

The product of more fooling around?

No, that's a thong that I, um, sent to
aim a record.

And?

Denied.

Quiet.

on the 201 still a family affair

but i know that i won't be there again

through it all in this small town

What, did I butcher it?

Uh, no.

No, you made it sound, uh, incredible.

Told you.

Now, we should get rehearsing. Yeah.

So, okay, let's put Billy Joel, my life
on the bill.

But you have to sing some of my
originals because they sound way better

your voice. Hey, all I'm doing is
singing what you wrote, so if it sounds

it's because of you. Well, maybe it's
because of both of us.

Because I think we're pretty awesome.

Hey, you two.

Oh, hey.

I almost forgot.

What? I'll let you go then. Oh, no, no.
You should stay.

You should stay. I mean, there's more
than enough cake, right?

Yeah, yeah.

Oh.

Wow. Did you make these?

Yes, me and the chef from the diner.
Although he wasn't too happy when I took

over his kitchen until I showed him
Theo's grilled cheese with mayonnaise

It is better than butter.

Okay, everybody dig in. Oh, uh, and
then, uh, how about you two do the

Because we've already eaten, so.

Seriously, I'm starving.

Okay, well, you guys are in game.

Wait, I've entertained in enough
weddings to know this is how we're

do this.

Uh. Open up.

Guys I think you're missing the essence
of the tasting

Movie magic.

Hi. Yeah, Mr. Lewis.

This is Noah Bailey.

Noah... Yeah.

I was just calling to see if you had a
chance to listen to any of those songs

that I'd said.

Yeah, no, I totally understand.

Yeah, I just thank you for the
consideration.

All right.

Hey. Hey.

Fancy meeting you here. Yeah.

You good?

All good, yeah. Except for some fresh
air. You?

Yeah, same.

Just working on the playlist in the van
and it's really stuffy in there.

You want to, uh... Yeah.

Yeah?

So your mom seemed pretty excited.

Is that the thing?

Yeah, that's a thing. Yeah, she's pretty
excited about the idea of me getting

married, even though her marriage
didn't, you know... I'm guessing it

well.

Well, not if you think a happy ending is
coming home from school, finding out

your dad's gone.

Oh, God.

I'm so sorry.

Well, yeah, life happens.

So you and your mom were pretty close
then?

She was pretty torn apart when my dad
left us, so we did lean on one another,

except, you know, that meant all of her
insecurities about being left alone fell

on me, which is only maybe more
independent from it all, you know?

Sorry, I don't normally talk about this.
So, uh, what's this about the playlist?

Oh, yeah. Uh, well, it's done.

All except for the first song. You know,
the big number that picks the night

off.

Since this night's all about you, I
thought maybe we should pick that.

Or, you know, maybe even write one.

I don't write songs. I just sing them.

Maybe we could come up with something
together. Like, you do the lyrics, I

compose the melody.

Well, that's such a bad idea, except
I've never...

Tried writing anything before.

Don't worry.

You know, if the phone comes from there,
it'd be pretty great.

Anyway, I'm going to continue on my
path.

Good night, sir.

Good night.

It was like the words just started
flowing.

I mean, no one was right.

You just have to write what you're
feeling.

So, is this a love song, or...? Kind of,
I guess.

I mean, either way, I can't wait to hear
what melody he plays for it.

You writing this together?

Uh, it's my song, but I'm not a
songwriter, so... Either way, it's not

Like?

Like an earpiece.

Who knows? Maybe instead of telling my
mom that Noah and I aren't engaged

anymore, I'll write her a song about it.

Hello, darling.

Mom, what, uh, what are you doing here?

What do you mean?

I'm here to meet the man you've decided
to finally marry.

Hey, there you are.

Look, I know you don't like calling this
thing a wedding, but I've got this

idea.

She's here. Right there.

There.

Looks like we need to add another shrimp
to the bobby.

Noah, this is my mom.

Mom, this is Noah.

Wow. My mom in the flesh.

It is such a pleasure to meet you.

And quite the surprise.

It is.

Surprise to all of us.

But it's a great surprise, of course. We
met, by the way, on the video call. I'm

Nick.

I'm Sid.

Me too.

Lauren, Lauren, we haven't made it, but
it's a pleasure.

It's wonderful to meet you all.

Now, what's this about the wedding?

Oh, that.

Well, you know me. I like to do things
my way, so when we do it, it won't be a

wedding in a traditional way.

No, no, that's right, because it's not
just a wedding. It's also a New Year's

Eve party.

How fun is that?

You getting married on New Year's?

Well, uh... No, no, not this. Not this
New Year's.

That would just be nuts.

To say the least.

Imagine.

Well,

I'm just happy to meet you, Noah.

Perhaps we could all have dinner.

I'd like to be home before the New Year,
so I'm only here for a couple of days.

Perfect. We'll get you sorted.

Tara.

Is someone on the phone RSVPing for your
wedding?

I gotta... I gotta go. I gotta go.

Look, I know it sounds crazy. Trust me.

but I don't like all of the bells and
whistles, and a big wedding would just

freak me out, so I figured I'd just have
a small party here, do it, and then

surprise you.

But if you want me to wait, really, I
could.

Mom?

Oh, my gosh, Mom, don't cry.

I am so sorry.

I should just be honest.

You're wearing my dress.

Then smaller not we won't wait

You're

gonna look beautiful and I just know it

You okay?

No.

I mean, this whole thing is getting way
out of control.

It's crazy.

It's all these little white lies about
the dates and the boyfriends. It was

to make my mom happy.

So she'd know I wasn't alone.

She was so sad when my dad left us.

I just didn't want to upset her even
more.

And I thought it was harmless.

Until now.

Sounds like a lot of pressure on you.

Yeah.

It was.

It is.

You know, writing songs helps me unload.

Did you try it?

Actually, I did.

Give it up?

It's not much. I don't have a lot. I
don't have the chorus written. Just give

up. Come on.

Okay, yeah.

Jump in.

That's really nice. Keep going, keep
going.

I've seen all what it can do. I've seen
how we

can only lose.

That's all I got.

That's pretty great so far.

Mind if I jump in? Go for it.

So what would happen if I date?

I'm used to this.

How was that?

I like it.

Not for the chorus.

Yeah, maybe we could add a little drama
to it.

Drama? Yeah. So, something like...

Too much?

Yeah, just a little.

The love club.

The what club?

Apparently my mom's been asking a lot of
questions, so I gotta go.

But make sure you write down what we
just did, because seriously.

That was gold.

Don't worry.

I will.

Hi. Oh, thank goodness.

What happened?

Well,

your mom was peppering me with a lot of
questions about the wedding. And I may

have offered too many details about the
food and the venue and the flowers.

So, where is she?

She is with Sid going over the menu.

Um, but that is not everything.

What else is there?

Well, we are now officially your
bridesmaids!

Aren't these bottles for the party?

Yep. But seeing as you're my bridesmaid
now, we may as well have an impromptu

shower.

Oh, thank goodness.

Your mom is in ten.

Where is she?

She's back at the hotel. I think she
exhausted herself.

So, the wedding is happening?

Does it really even matter what we're
celebrating?

As long as it's a damn party. Because
honestly, all I want is to bring in a

of something better.

Trust me. I may look fab on Instagram,
but singing mediocre gigs and taking

selfies with randoms to appease your mom
is not.

I mean, to me, all of you are way more
fab.

Lauren, you've got your art gallery.

Nick, you're a hot designer.

Okay, and Sid, you've got your
restaurant.

What do I have?

A beautiful voice. Yeah, and a serious
set of gauntlets. And a...

Oh, I have an idea.

Why don't you and all your men come move
here and we could start, like, a

commune. I like that. The Love Club
commune.

So do I.

Except the reality is we are going to
have to go.

Yeah, of course.

You know, I love that the Year of Terror
is about pursuing your dreams, but, I

don't know, the idea of doing it on your
own sounds lonely.

So, why don't you just...

Open up to the idea of sharing your
fabulousness with someone.

And you can't convince her that you're
not fat.

I agree.

In the words of the late, great Patrick
Swayze and Ghost.

Ditto.

Though, as unrealistic as this commune
idea is, I actually kind of love it. I

just think that maybe we should do it on
a beach.

Yes, with a hot Latin bartender called
Carlo.

Like magic in a mug.

Hey, just a heads up, my mom's going to
be joining us after she calls about a

minister.

Whoa, this is starting to sound really
official.

I know.

But it's like we figured out last night.
We just go through with it, and then I

soften the blow by telling my mom that
Noah and I are better off as friends,

then boom, we get an annulment. Okay,
how come this plan sounded better when

Nick was pitching it last night? Where
is she? Hi, excuse me, sorry.

Did you just say annulment?

That's right. Now that we have to
actually get married.

I thought that... You thought what? That
this train was going to veer off the

track? Hey, Mom!

How'd the whole minister thing go?

Not as impossible to find one as you
made it out to be.

Great. Get your coffee.

So, Noah, where's the engagement ring?

I'm sorry, what?

It's getting resized.

Right, Noah?

In fact, Tara, weren't you just going to
go and pick one out? Pick one up. Pick

one up. Pick one up this morning. Yes,
yes, I was.

Actually, we were both going to go,
right? So we better hurry and get that

See you later. I have to go run a 20K or
something.

Well, it's a totally good day.

So, back to the whole annulment
business.

May I help you?

Yes, we need a few wedding rings. An
engagement ring and a few bands.

Nothing fancy, they just need a bit.

First, let's get you both sized.

All right.

Let's see.

Yeah, okay.

And here I always pictured my actual
wedding to actually mean something.

I'm sorry, what's your return policy?

Seven days.

So, uh, what do you think?

Can you give us just a minute?

Okay,

I get the whole trying to make your mom
happy thing, but this all feels like a

poker bluff that is going to go
seriously wrong.

Well, getting married is a gamble. You
can't be sure that whoever you're

marrying won't break your heart. Yeah, I
get that. Maybe it is.

But the day I get married, even if it's
just for that one day...

I know how it feels to be so in love
that I can't see myself living my life

without that person walking down the
aisle with me. So, yeah, that's a gamble

that I'm willing to take.

I'm sorry.

I have been so caught up, I haven't
stopped to think about how this affects

So if you want to call it quits, I get
it.

Except I can't.

Because the thought of leaving you
stranded just feels so wrong.

And I mean, hey, we've come this far.

So you know what they say.

If the ring fits.

Just in wedding bands, yeah?

Yeah. Yeah.

I gotta say, I sense a hit in the
making.

Well, if Garth Bryant really is lurking
around town in here, I promise I will

share the cream. Then I'll be happy to
ride your coattail.

Seriously, though.

Thank you.

For everything.

Well, it's been a wild ride. In a weird
and fun kind of way.

Plus, it's like you say, we'll just know
it.

Like it never happened.

Right, yeah.

You know, you can park at the club for
as long as you need to. It's the least I

can do.

Thanks, but as appealing as that sounds,
I'm still hoping to be back on the road

to Garth's studio.

But hey, maybe we'll both be out of
here.

Maybe.

I'm going to stop and get a few things
for the big day.

Okay. Well, if you're wondering, I'll
take a simple boutonniere and nothing

fancy. Oh, very funny.

It's funny.

Oh, what?

What, I don't get a say in any of the
planning?

Thank you.

Oh, my.

Is that leather?

It is.

Isn't it fabulous?

Just came in for Tara. I bet it's for
New Year's. Oh, really?

Mm -hmm. Well, I'm her mother. I'll take
it and make sure it's hung in her

closet. Sure.

Thank you.

Looking back now All the stars

didn't see my life Was bound to be made

I think I asked you about the seating
plan, which your mom was insisting on.

Yeah, sure.

Your dad?

Yeah.

It's just the most photo I kept.

He's like the only one, really.

How long after the city leave?

When I was on the verge of leaving my
marriage, I couldn't understand myself

I can go from loving someone so much to
being ready to walk away.

But that's love.

You know, it has peaks and valleys.

Sometimes you go down the mountain
together.

All this for?

Oh, yes, um, it's for the rehearsal
dinner.

We're doing that?

Yeah, well, I mean, we're doing
everything else, and your mom kept

about it, so... Can I see it?

What?

The ring.

It's perfect.

It is, isn't it?

You mean you're gonna keep it?

I might.

Mm -hmm.

I was going to get one anyway to signify
my commitment to, you know, myself.

It's really great of Noah to be doing
all this.

Yeah, it is.

Especially since he's such a doomed
romantic, which probably makes him such

great songwriter. I've got to tell you,
this song we're writing really feels

like it could be something.

Oh, really?

Maybe like a Rama -Lama ding -dong?

You know, together forever.

Oh, yeah, kind of like that.

Hey, Mom.

How was your sleep?

Better than your fiancé.

I just saw him emerge from a van.

What's he doing sleeping in there?

Oh, I mean, he's just staying there
because my friends are staying with me.

Plus, he's always up late writing music,
so... He's a musician.

Could be worse.

Now he's going to take me to see where
this wedding's unfolding.

The right.

Here?

Where you work.

Why not?

Why not a church?

Because I told you. You know, I want it
to feel more like a celebration.

And hey, we got the minister. Oh. Isn't
that great? Sit.

We got a minister.

Great. Yeah, he's great.

What about your vows?

Have you written them?

Actually, we're, um, we're not doing
vows.

No vows. Really, Tara?

You were serious about this.

Which clearly you're not. Actually, the
vows are going to be sung.

In a song.

To go with the theme of the venue.
That's right. Yes, they are.

Well, at least that's something.

I see.

I'm thinking if we sing our vows and we
don't actually say adieu, then maybe we

won't be officially married.

You really think the minister or your
mom won't find that out?

Good point.

Wow, this is something.

And now, there's our forget -a -sign.

Yeah.

We do.

Okay, it looks like everyone's here, so
please have a seat and the first course

will be served.

Why don't you stay on that side? Nadine,
sit here.

So Noah. Yeah, yeah.

Tara tells me you're a musician.

A songwriter, actually.

Really?

Would I know any of the songs he's
written?

Well, um,

no. No, I haven't had anything produced,
per se,

but I am working on... See, but Noah is
an amazing songwriter.

I mean, you should hear the music he's
written for some lyrics I wrote. It just

took them to a whole other level.

I'm sure that it's only a matter of time
before everyone else recognizes how

talented he is.

Mushroom soup.

I think it's time I said a few words
about this apparent whirlwind.

It caught me off guard because I know my
daughter.

And I know all those times you told me
you weren't alone, it wasn't real.

But this, however this happened, one
thing's for sure, that what you two have

is real.

So to Tara and Noah, may this journey
you're on together continue to be full

surprises.

To Tara and Noah.

Well,

that was... I know.

I don't think I've ever seen my mom so
genuinely happy.

We definitely convinced her of
something.

We sure did.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

We should probably get some sleep before
the big day.

Yes, ma 'am.

and Tara.

Thanks for believing in me.

Have we decided what we're wearing now
that we're bridesmaids?

I had Theo Curry in my old graduate.

You really do hold on to everything.

Oh, good, you're here. I, um, I wanted
to show you you're okay.

I tried not to make it too flowery.
That's possible.

You okay?

I don't know.

This all feels so wrong, but I kind of
don't want to stop it.

That make sense?

Totally makes sense, especially if you
actually like Noah.

A lot.

Well, that would just be crazy, wouldn't
it?

Oh, it can't be crazier than all this.

Okay, but seriously, I just met the guy.
He's just doing me a favor.

Except what he's doing for you is pretty
big.

Yes, he is literally marrying you.

Only for a few weeks, and then it's
over.

Well, except maybe it doesn't have to
be.

Think about this.

When you think about the year of Tara,

Does it make you feel happy to be alone?

Or with Noah?

Oh, crap.

This was so not the plan. I mean, I was
supposed to just have my year, and he

wasn't supposed to be in it.

Well, you can't stop love.

Who's talking about love?

No one, right?

Nope. Uh -uh.

Ugh.

Except stupidly, I think I do.

I do love him in some weird way.

Oh, my God. This is a disaster.

Hey, no, no.

No, it's not.

Look at who you have helping you with
all this.

Hmm?

The Love Club.

Oh, yeah, I guess this has turned into a
bit of a mess.

A bit?

This train came off the track days ago.

But it can be set right if you're honest
and you just tell Noah how you feel.

No, I can't do that.

Tara, of all of us, you're the one to do
the things that none of us would dare

to do.

Like get up in front of a room full of
strangers and sing your heart out.

It's why all of us live a little
vicariously through you.

Then why the hell does this scare me?

Because putting your heart on the line
is supposed to be scary.

Terrifying. But it's okay.

Because you're going to put your big
girl pants on in true fab fashion.

Tell Noah how you feel.

It's a nice ballad you got there.

Oh, my God.

You are Garth Bryant.

I didn't see you there. Yeah, well,
that's the idea.

Say what why don't you come visit me in
the studio in the new year?

I'm gonna help you take that little
ballad turn it into a chart -topping

What do you say?

That would be amazing but But it's not
my song. It's like it's a collaboration

kid. I'm trying to give you a break here
Okay, just you now you can either take

it or you can leave it All right, okay
good man

Yeah, now we'll be in touch all right

Hey, have any of you seen Tara?

Uh, no, but I'm sure the blushing bride
and groom will be arriving shortly.

Where's Tara?

Uh, I don't know.

Haven't seen her all day.

Oh, you haven't?

Can I have your attention?

I have an announcement I need to make.

So much for nerves. She's going full
drama on this.

This whole wedding has been a surprise
to every one of us.

And you guys have been so supportive in
making it happen.

But the reality is, it shouldn't be.

So, Mom, it's time that I told you the
truth, which is Noah and I

aren't really engaged.

I don't even really know him.

He's just some guy who happened to be at
the right place at the right time.

I never wanted to get married. All I
wanted was a party.

To celebrate me and my dreams.

And to kick off a year where I don't
have to explain myself or pretend that

with someone.

And clearly that was an epic fail.

That is okay, because I'm back on track.
And tonight, I'm going to have the

celebration that I planned.

And I'm going to celebrate me, my
commitment to myself, and the year of

Whoa.

What was that all about?

You think I should at least get a heads
up? We were so close to actually...

Close to what, Noah? I mean, you are
going to go and live your life, and I'm

going to go and live mine.

So it's better if I just cut you loose
now, so you don't have to worry about

bad luck.

We both know that we're in this for
ourselves.

So now you're free.

Go chase that record deal like you
planned. Have a banner year of Noah.

One more thing.

Leave your van off the property by the
morning.

Hey, what happened?

A few wedding jitters?

Nothing. Other than Noah got the break
that he came here for, so I figured why

wait for him to walk out on me until
after we're married and he takes our

and makes it big without me.

Are you sure that's what he's doing?

I mean, maybe you just need to talk to
him.

Not you, Sid.

Okay, I'm not going to give him a chance
to make phony promises.

Maybe this is one of those signs that
you believe in Nick, that I should just

what I had planned.

Because, like you say, Laura, honesty is
the best policy.

So, if you'll excuse me, I have a party
to get dressed for.

Miss Williams!

Hi! You know what? I know you have a lot
of questions for Tara. I just don't

think she's in any position to answer
them. I don't need to question my

daughter. Because I knew this whole
wedding or party or whatever, you all

concocted as a sham.

You did?

Of course.

I watched Tara bumble through the story
she makes up for years now.

But the difference here is, this story
could have a happy ending.

So ladies, how are you going to fix
this?

I just don't believe that no one would
take her song, their song, and record it

without her. I agree, especially if her
mom saw their connection. And I swear,

that woman will see through your soul if
you let her. Hey, terrorist friends,

that piano man left you this.

What are we going to do?

Lace up, ladies.

I don't have laces.

I can't let her deal.

Yeah, I'm reaching for what's deemed...

Impossible for me Just because you're
telling This

prophecy don't mean that I agree Little
girl in your eyes Still want a way to

realize I pay more attention to the
things you keep on mentioning

I'm sorry, Mom.

I don't know how all this got so out of
control.

I mean, I know how. I just... I
convinced myself it was better to go

it.

Better for you.

Tara, I'm the one who is sorry that you
feel you've had to prop me up.

Especially when you've needed propping
yourself.

Mom, I'm fine.

I got this.

Tara, don't... Stop.

Your father leaving hurt.

It hurts both.

But I'll tell you one thing.

I'd put on my wedding dress and do it
all over again.

Because you can't experience that kind
of heartbreak unless you've experienced

love.

So what would sadden you the most from
all of it would be if it stopped you

following your own true heart.

Check out the date I scored online.

I know what you said about the app, but
I'm really feeling it.

I know what I said. Go for it.

By the way, do you play piano?

Yeah.

Hi, everyone.

I just want to say thank you so much for
coming out and bringing in this new

year and the year of Tara.

to kick off the festivities. How about a
real crowd pleaser?

Go!

On your cue, or... What are you doing
here?

I figured you'd be halfway to Micah
Records by now. You figured a lot of

Like that I'd want to sing our song
without you, but why would I when we

such great music together?

That's exactly why I called Garth Bryant
back here.

He's gonna leave.

Are you ready?

But I'm searching for that spine of gold
Someone that'll take my

hand and won't drag me down again I

don't know if you're the one

So maybe this wasn't bad luck after all.

At least I hope not, because I've fallen
for you, Tara Williams.

And even though I don't think we should
get married tonight, I do think we

should give this a shot.

For real this time.

You and me. What do you say?

Well, I say I'll see you both in the
studio.

Of course.

Fantastic. Fantastic.

Riley, get Mark.

Oh, my God.

Did he?

Are we?

Oh.

So is that a yes?

Yes.

Yes, I think we should give this a try.

Well, here's to chasing the dream.

Together.
