Hi.

You look nice.

So do you.

I can't deal with this tension between us. Yes, it's awful.

Then why didn't you say anything?

Why didn't you?

I just did.

Do you want me to leave?

What? No, that's so mean.

Then do you want to try and talk about it?

Morgan would literally kill me if this party wasn't 100 % about her.

Okay, well, let's just put it aside for now. We can table it. Don't say table

it. I wasn't going to say table it. I was going to say table it.

So what should we do?

Fake it.

Can I get a big smile?

Yeah, I bought it when we were in a fight to make a statement, but I didn't

another option.

That's fun.

Morgan, congratulations.

You look beautiful.

We're so excited to be here. This is an amazing engagement party. Okay, calm

down. Take a picture of me.

Yeah.

Yes. Do you want horizontal or vertical? Well, actually, hold on.

No, actually.

Oh, you guys are taking pictures. Let us get in one. Let us get in one. Yeah.

Okay. I think we got it. No, I don't think we got it. All right. Hey, buddy.

guys, this party kind of rules.

This dress is really working for me.

Yes, it's inappropriately white dress. It looks so good. Thank you.

I'm going to get a drink.

Okay.

Why are you smiling so weird?

You're definitely doing something weird with your face.

I don't like how smiling works.

I don't know.

You okay?

You... The nose crinkle really was off -putting. Like a toddler.

It was a toddler. Am I crazy or are we having a little bit of fun? That was me

faking it. Nothing has changed.

Oh. Wow, you're really good at that.

Come on. I don't want to fight with you. I hate it when people say that.

Honestly, we don't have to be fighting. The answer is right in front of us. Say

what needs to be said and we'll be in a... Hey!

I saw you two lovers whispering sweet nothings. Did you two just do it in the

bath?

Hey.

This place is amazing.

Yeah. And he's a therapist?

Yeah. I think he, like, overcharges his famous clients or something. I don't

know.

Are you having fun?

Mm -hmm.

Good. Yeah, I mean, I just got here, but yeah.

And you, you excited?

Yeah, I'm so excited.

You know, I just can't believe this is my life. It's, like, amazing.

Yeah, it is. I'm really happy for you, Morgan.

Good. God, I'm just really happy, you know?

Like, this is what bliss feels like, I guess. Are you crying?

Yeah, maybe a little. I don't know. I'm just, like, very overwhelmed and maybe a

little bit hungry, and I'm just... I'm just so happy. Okay, take a deep breath

for me, okay?

What's going on? Are you sure these are happy tears?

Um... I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I feel weird. I feel like...

Like maybe I don't like him anymore.

Oh, thank God. I don't know, but I'm on the fence. I'm not sure, you know? I

don't know.

Okay. Yeah. Well, which way would you like me to push you? Because I will do

whichever way you want. Right. Um...

I think I need you to push me to break up with him. Yeah, I think I need you

like, tell me all the things that you've been holding back because I'm, like,

pretty sure that I want to break up with him, but I just, like, need some things

to, like, push me over the edge so I don't go back, you know? Are you sure?

Because I will let it rip, but I need to confirm this is not a trap. Yes, yes.

Give it to me. Okay. All right. At Purim, he berated a waiter for stepping

his foot and actually said, these are brand new loafers. See, I don't love

No. He also texted mom one time at like 11 p .m. and said I had the weirdest

dream about you. He did that to dad too. No, I have like 50 more. You know what

really bothers me about him?

Is that he weaponizes things that I said to him in therapy when I thought that I

was opening up in a safe space. It feels like very intrusive. You need to do it

right now. Well, still fresh. No. You need to do it. Yes, you do. Here? Right

now. No, that's insane. Unfortunately, yes, you do. Oh, my God. Go. Go do it

right now. You're crazy.

Hey, listen. Yes.

It is going to be okay.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm good. I'm fine. I'm great. Go ruin Andy's life, okay?

Okay. Okay, I'm going.

I can do this.

Morgan's breaking up with Andy.

What? Yeah, right now.

At their engagement party? Well, she had a strong feeling. She acted on it.

Wow. I imagine that's hard for you to understand, taking action based on a

strong feeling.

Oh, shit!

This is my song!

Hey, good. Yo, record me. Record me. All right, I'm in the middle of something.

Doing what? Check this out.

Come on, Joe. Our situation is different. You know that. I love you.

might be hard for you to remember, but you love me too, okay? So you can just

admit it. Obviously.

I love you, Noah. That's the problem.

Are you worried about what people will think? No.

Oh, shit, I fucked it up. Shit, I fucked it up.

Start again. Start again.

I'm just trying to protect us long term.

Being married to a rabbi is a very specific lifestyle. What if down the

don't want that?

You know, Rebecca said something really similar to that at Miriam's bat mitzvah.

You should just marry Rebecca.

I mean, I'm sure she's still available. You can reach out. Okay.

I'm going to go take a walk.

Actually, no. You know what?

Why don't you take a walk?

Go cool down. Come back when you can have a conversation.

Did you get it? Did you get it? I got it. Nice.

That one's going straight to grid.

Yeah, baby.

Might even pay to boost it.

Okay. Well, it didn't work. We're still together.

What? How did he convince you to stay with him? I don't know. He knows all my

behavioral patterns, okay? He said that the inner child in me is being afraid of

being in love. And then I was like, wait, is the inner child in me being

of being in love? I don't know. I'm not a professional. Then, you know, just

marry him, I guess. What?

I thought you hated him. Yeah, well, that was back when I believed in love

thought that any of us get to be happy. But that was like 20 seconds ago. What

are you talking about? Joanne, what is wrong with you? Where is Noah? He can

help us solve this. Hey, honestly, Morgan, at least he wants to marry you,

And you should be grateful. Because, like, a bird in the hand and the devil

know and all that stuff. Okay, can you please not speak in riddles at such a

crucial time?

At least he knows he wants to be with you. Okay, so just marry him. You can

always get divorced. That could be, like, your brand.

Yeah.

Yeah, okay, maybe you're right.

Yeah. You know, I don't want to be on the apps anymore. No, nobody does.

Okay, well, I'll call up the wedding planner and book up Santa Barbara.

Great, it's going to be beautiful.

Okay, I think I know what we need. Oh, I'm listening.

Let's just give ourselves six months.

Six months to just enjoy each other and we can take all the pressure off.

That is your... A big smile for me.

Closer together.

That's your big idea, Noah?

To give me a half a year to think about it?

I don't think so. No, thank you. Thank you. No.

I'm tired of waiting around.

How old do you think I am?

You know what? Don't answer that.

I feel like it's a wonderful time.

Joanne, hi, honey.

I'm eating the most fantastic thing. It's like a delicious noodle birthday

and I love it.

No, honey, it's kugel. Not as good as the kind I make. Why is Morgan even

serving kugel? What the hell is kugel? It's a Jewish food that Morgan knows I

love, and now she loves it, too, because she just copies everything I do.

Okay, Grumpy, what's wrong?

Nothing.

I mean, I'm upset because of Morgan.

She wants out of this Dr.

Andy thing.

But she doesn't know how to break free, okay? She doesn't like him anymore.

Oh, that's horrible. She looks happy. No, she's not.

And I blacked out and told her, just marry him anyway, even though she hates

him, which I know is terrible advice, but I was really in a mood. Joanne,

terrible advice. I know. I just said that, Mom.

Andy has this, like, weird force of will, though. He would make an amazing

leader. Okay.

Fasten your seat belt. I'm going in.

I'd make an amazing cult leader.

I'm handsome enough.

Give me that. May I have that? Thank you. Here, drink this. What? I hope it's

strong. Just drink it, because I need you to wake up. Okay, okay, Mom, I'll

drink it.

I didn't leave your father, even though I knew I should have, years before he

left me.

And you know why I couldn't.

It was because I, well, all of us have these voices in our heads telling us

we'll never find anyone else.

We don't deserve happiness, or maybe it's our fault we're not happy.

I just think that... I don't know, maybe I'm just impossible to please, you

know?

Like, Dr. Andy puts me on such a high pedestal, you know?

But that's not what you want.

You want an equal partnership.

Someone who holds you accountable, but sees the best in you.

Don't make the mistake I made.

Demand what's best for you.

I'm doing it, I'm doing it, I'm doing it, I'm doing it.

It's over.

It's over, Andy. It's over.

Okay, two more.

Hey, how are you?

What's going on?

Okay.

Andy, I am breaking up with you once and for all.

Whoa, Morgan.

I know that you're scared, but... Don't do that, okay? I'm not scared.

Not in the way that you're saying that, okay? I'm scared that I'm not going to

follow through on breaking up with you and that we're just going to end up

together, and that's not what I want.

Oh.

Listen, Andy.

I need you to repeat my words back to me, okay?

Okay.

This relationship is over.

This relationship is over.

You made me feel like... Listen, you made me feel like I was... No, no, no,

that. Oh, I'm sorry. I thought you wanted me to repeat... No, not this

Just listen. Okay.

You made me feel like I was special.

You know, like you saw all the darkest parts of me and you found them

And, I don't know, it made me ignore things that I should have paid attention

to.

And if I'm being really honest with myself...

Joanne's relationship made me rush into this with you, and I wanted to catch up

with her, but that's not how I want to live my life.

I see.

Well, as your fiancé, I am utterly heartbroken.

But as your therapist, I am really proud of you, Morgan.

She, like, really wants to move in. It's not just that she really wants to move

in. She really wants to move forward.

And I do, too.

I need more time.

How are you and Esther?

Look, I don't want to rub it in, but we've actually been doing really well

last couple days. Really? Yeah. Oh, good. No, that makes me happy.

I was getting kind of worried that we were going to be one of those couples

where one person wakes up, like, 20 years in, and they realize they hate the

other person.

So I just like took the pressure off, you know.

Do you ever think that it just shouldn't be this hard?

I don't hear melody.

I just hear words.

When you say you love me, that's why it hurts.

We used to sing symphonies, now we can't carry a

tune. Hey, sorry to interrupt. Can I talk to you for a second? Yeah.

Hi.

Hi.

We have so many things going in our favor. I know. I was just thinking that,

because my mom was saying something about, like, seeing the best in your

partner. Ayin Tova.

To look at your partner with a good eye.

I do that with you.

I do that with you, too.

There are a hundred different ways I could convince you to be with me right

I'm not going to do that.

Nothing good happens when it's forced. I don't want to be the person who's

asking you to be someone different.

We can't start our life that way. You would wake up in 20 years, you would

me.

Okay.

Sorry, so what are you saying?

I'm saying I'm all out of ideas. I don't... I don't have any more.

So you're just giving up?

It's not giving up.

It's not giving up.

It is accepting the truth of our situation.

Is this happening right now?

Are we breaking up right now?

I don't know what other choice we have.

I love you.

But we can't keep doing this. It's too hard.

Please tell Morgan that I'm sorry I had to leave.

How

you

doing?

I'm good. Oh, good.

First, I've noticed you haven't been yourself lately.

Oh, that's a start.

So, I am going to stay out of your way.

I've been trying to figure this out for us, or for you.

Yeah.

Reigniting the sparks, they say.

You're the greatest guy in the whole world.

I'm the best dad.

I'm just a fantastic, lovable weirdo.

You've honestly done everything for me.

And I know how hard you've tried.

I do.

But it's not working.

It's not working, and I don't know why, but what I

do know is that it's me right now, and I can't fix it while we're together.

I can't believe I just said that.

Even though everything's burning I want you to know it's all worth

it

Wanna dance?

This night is so fucked.

So fucked.

Do you need to, like, beat anybody up for you? Are you okay?

Nah,

I feel pretty good about my decision.

I mean, people are probably gonna start calling me the runaway bride or

whatever, but... I mean, this is only your first time, and it's not like this

was the wedding.

Are you trying to give yourself a nickname right now? No, I'm just saying

are probably going to call me that. Okay, I'll call you that if you want.

Hey, um, I'm really sorry about Esther.

Yeah.

I mean, if she thinks that she can just, like, go out there and see what life is

on the other side without me and I'll just, like, wait and take her back.

She's absolutely right.

Yeah. I mean, if this is for life, I gotta ride with her, you know?

You're a good guy.

Almost like I'm too good to be true, except I'm real.

I'm right here, I'm real.

Hi.

Hi.

Are you okay?

No.

Do you want to talk about it?

No.

I mean, you look horrible. Let's do you.

I think Noah and I

are really done.

Man, I can't really talk about it, though, because I'm afraid I'm going to

crying.

That doesn't even make sense.

You know how when something really big happens, you start to think about all

these little, like, random things?

Like, I'm really going to miss Javad.

We're just so drained.

Like, I'm going to miss being told to put away my phone on Friday night.

And I love being superstitious.

I say poo -poo -poo to things all the time now.

Because it makes me feel good. Of course.

Poo -poo -poo is so good.

So keep doing Shabbat.

You're basically Jewish.

I wish.

No, Joanne, I'm serious. Like, I feel like you have this idea of being Jewish

that's so much more complicated than it actually is.

You feel Jewish to me.

You're warm and cozy.

You always want to chat about everything.

You'd be a pretty good get for us.

Well, you're not warm and cozy.

No, you're not warm and cozy. Funny. See?

You're funny.

That's Jewish.

You love to overshare.

Yeah, no matter how much I resisted, you literally forced me to be friends with

you. Forced? I mean, you're a true kibitzer.

You're always getting in everybody's business.

You ever heard of a yenta, Joanne?

That's you.

You're a yenta.

I'm a yenta?

Yeah, of course you are. I mean, you're obsessed with your family, even though

they are so nuts.

Jewish. You're always eating the challah before you're supposed to. We all do

that. Jewish.

Like, I don't really know what you're waiting for.

Whether it's a sign or the water's to part or what, but... The whole thing is

just a feeling.

And enjoying all those little things is the feeling.

With or without Noah.

You're Jewish.

I have to go.

I...

Hey, who's Joanne?

I think she left.

She left?

I think so.

None of it matters.

You are my soulmate.

That's it.

I don't care if you're Jewish. I don't care if you're not Jewish.

I choose you.

Every time.

Well, you're in luck.
