Hi. Hi.

Hey, still on for tonight? Yes.

Hey, do you have a chance to look at the wedding venues that I sent you?

We really need to get a deposit in soon.

Sorry, haven't had a chance.

Okay, don't worry, but come in today, okay?

June is the most popular month for weddings, so if you want to lock

in... Poppy, I got it.

I'll take a look today.

Okay, thank you.

I'll see you tonight.

All right, see you.

Thanks, bud.

Not again.

Don't have time to change.

Going up?

Well, it doesn't really matter with this elevator. It's got a mind of its own.

You been in the building a long time?

Yeah, seven years.

I'm actually visiting the penthouse.

You married?

Wow, jumping right to the point.

Now I'm unattached.

Not really into the whole settling down thing.

Tommy's gonna love you.

What, the building owner? Why? What's his deal?

He's just choosy about who he lets move in. You'll see. I'm not concerned.

Well, what was that?

Why is the... Would this be a bad time to mention

that I'm slightly claustrophobic?

It started when I was seven. I got stuck in an elevator by myself.

Had a panic attack. Had to breathe into a paper bag.

I got pulled up by a firefighter, though, so that was pretty cool. But

closed spaces, I cannot do it, you know? I don't even, like, walk in closets.

Are you hot? I am hot. Okay, okay, look at me.

Just breathe. Just take a big, big, deep breath.

Okay.

This happens all the time. I promise.

Do you feel better?

Yeah. You look better.

And voila, we're moving.

Yeah.

I wasn't really worried. No, I knew we were going to be fine.

So, hey, maybe if I get the plate, we could have dinner together sometime.

Good morning, Tony.

Poppy.

Is that a no?

What are you doing in my building?

Oh, I'm Milo Asher. I'm here to see the Panhandle.

Bachelors.

All

right, my

lovelies, that's all for today.

Oh, and I have a special announcement coming soon.

Working on something major over here, and I can't wait to show you all

everything about it.

Kisses!

Puppies!

You're late.

I had to go live without that good ring light thingy thing you have. My under

eye circles were showing. It was tragic. I'm sorry. The elevator in my building

was... Ew. I don't need to hear about your weird old building.

Listen. I set up a dinner tonight, and I need you at it. Okay, sure. What for?

It's a strategy meeting with the top exec from Aspire.

When I launch my iJordan eyeshadow palettes, I need all media behind me. So

Aspire's in the ad agency.

Mm -hmm. I thought you said traditional advertising was going to die, like that

takes in flip phones and that social media was the one true future.

I said that?

Whatever.

Flip phones are coming back.

I mean, don't get me wrong. I am very, very pleased that we're going in this

direction. Don't be late. The details are in your calendar.

Okay, so does this mean I'm finally handling my own account?

Oh, wait.

Seriously? Yeah, just because it's been six years, so I thought that maybe a

promotion was coming.

You are adorable.

Oh, and maybe try some matching shoes tonight, okay? Bye!

So is that a no?

Yeah.

Truffle Mac for a millennium.

So I had a chance to look at the venues you sent.

And?

June, outside, it might be hot.

But it'll be pretty.

And pricey.

Yeah.

Oh, shoot.

I keep forgetting that you don't like truffle.

You know, you're like the only person in the world that doesn't like truffle.

Hey, look, I'll make you one. No, no, no, don't worry. I will eat it.

Hey, did you make a decision about the couch?

Can't we just keep mine?

I don't even know your furniture.

It's already your place. What am I even going to bring with me when I move in

next month?

Just bring you.

And clothes.

I don't know.

Knick -knacks.

And my couch.

The gray lumpy one?

It's not lumpy. And it's light games furrow. And it sets off my xanthic trunk

perfectly. Or maybe we'll buy a new one. One we both like.

Yeah, no, you're right.

So what does Ingrid have you doing?

Don't tell him.

Is she making you hold her hand while she lays in the float chamber again?

that was one time. And no, this is actually a work thing. Ingrid's finally

bringing on a real ad agency.

A fire.

Like the best in the city.

Actually, I always wanted to work there.

You think she'll actually perform in this thing?

That's the hope.

I don't know if I can stand six more years of just...

Being her underling.

Well, it's a good thing that you're busy tonight.

The boys want to come over.

Cool.

What do you think?

Hey, burn my brisket.

I gotta go.

Come back when you got your life more together.

Guy was a magician.

Doesn't anybody have a real job anymore?

Tony.

He hates the clubs.

He got me.

I hate magicians.

Maybe you should lower your standards a hair.

Why? I don't ask for much in a tenant.

All I want is someone with a good job and a stable relationship.

You know, when I was growing up, people got married.

Now all anybody wants to do is date for all eternity.

We need more people like you, Pop.

You sure you want to move out of here? Tony, I'm getting married. To a ghost.

I never see this fiancé.

You never talk about him. He's practically fictional.

I talk about him. Not to me.

Who are you off to? You're going to meet this invisible man?

A work dinner.

Well, tell your boss she ought to get a real job, too.

Influencers, magicians.

It's like all anybody's parents say nowadays is, follow your dreams.

Good night, Tony.

Good night, Poppy.

Talk, okay? Just need you here to observe and take notes. Okay.

There he is.

He practically runs the ad world.

And he's hot.

But that's besides the point.

We need this meeting to go perfectly.

So I need you to be my ears and my ears only.

Him? We're meeting him?

Ingrid. Thanks for coming.

Of course.

This is Poppy.

My... I handle her marketing and branding.

Poppy, very nice to see you again.

It's a bit of a weird morning we had together, wasn't it?

I'm sorry.

Do you two know each other? It's a long story. Well, I'm all ears.

Maybe later. Should we start?

Please, have a seat. Hope you don't mind I ordered some stuff for the table.

Obviously, one of the challenges that you're going to face is, well, the

industry is saturated.

It is, but that's why I'm hiring you.

Well, we can help place ads, but the creative will have to come primarily

your end.

So, any preliminary ideas about how to break through all the noise?

What will I, Jordan, do to stand out? Well, I'm one of the first influencers

ever hit a million. Actually, I was hoping that Poppy could answer this

question, since she is your marketing and branding specialist, after all.

Well, I, or we, could focus directly on the product.

But I think that might be the wrong angle.

People follow Ingrid because they're fascinated with her, her life, her tips

tricks. So I think I would want to do something with that.

We already do that for my social media, though. Yes, but why not blend them? The

personal aspects of social combined with the broader reach of traditional ads.

Great. Poppy, you'll take lead on the account.

Me? Her?

I'm not sure that's appropriate.

All due respect, Ingrid, I think you might be too close to the project to be

impartial.

If you want to aspire behind this lunch, this is how I would prefer to work.

Okay.

Sure.

Great.

Well, this was great. Thank you. Absolutely. I'm excited to get started.

Poppy, would you mind hanging back for a minute so we can talk shop?

Sure. Great.

I expect to be briefed on everything?

Mm -hmm.

So, should we take a walk?

Yeah.

So why do I get the sense that you putting me on this account has an

motive attached to it?

Okay, there is something. I knew it. Your billing manager is intense.

Let me guess.

He turns you down pretty much immediately.

The guy hated me from the second he saw me. I don't get it.

Tony just does not like bachelors. It's a quirk of his.

He thinks someone single will bring too much chaos to the building. So pretty

much as a rule, he only looks for people who are settled and stable, which you

are clearly not.

Excuse me, what about me says that I am not settled and stable?

I don't know.

Your Italian suit that cost more than my car, maybe?

So I dress well.

That doesn't mean I'm not reliable. I'll have you know I have impeccable credit.

But when was the last time that you were in a relationship?

Define relationship.

Exactly.

Help me convince Tony to let me have the apartment.

Why does a guy like you even want to live at the Gregory?

You could probably have your pick of anywhere in Chicago.

I could, but...

I want character.

Your place has that in spades.

I want to live somewhere interesting.

How do you expect me to convince Tony?

Besides, what's in it for me?

What do you want?

Oh, I don't know. Come on.

Everybody wants something.

Name your price.

I bet I know what you want.

A new job.

Of course no.

Come on. Ingrid doesn't even let you speak without her permission. She barely

let you order for yourself a dinner. You're dying working for her. It's

Okay, that's not fair. She just doesn't like it when I order gluten because she

thinks it's contagious.

But that's beside the point. She is one of the original influencers. She's

practically the first person to make herself into a brand.

And I get the feeling she didn't do that alone.

Yes, that part is true.

Help me get the penthouse, and I'll get you a position with a fire.

A place that you can actually put your talent for good use.

No, you can't be serious.

Why not? I run the place.

Please.

The penthouse has a dumb waiter.

You just don't see those every day.

Besides, you're good.

You're too good to be wasting your talent working for a narcissist.

I mean, I would want it to poach you even without the apartment.

Okay, look, Tony will not let you live at that apartment unless you have a real

breathing girlfriend.

Better yet, a fiancé. And he wants to find a tenant for the first.

So how am I supposed to get you into a serious relationship in just two weeks?

You want the job at Aspire?

You can figure it out.

I'll just have him.

Poppy! We need to talk. Yes, I know. I don't... I understand why he doesn't

me on my own beauty launch. Well, and you're so, so unprepared for this.

I'm Ingrid Jordan, for goodness sake.

Everyone wants me involved.

Well, I wouldn't exactly say I'm unprepared. I have been working for you

past six years now.

Yeah, but never without me guiding you like my sweet little lost puppy.

I can handle this, Ingrid, but this ad agency is too big to lose.

We need their distribution channel.

So if Milo wants me on this account, I can handle it.

I promise you.

Fine.

But I want minute -by -minute updates. And everything, and I mean everything,

you do creatively has to go through me first. Doesn't that defeat the purpose

me handling the account?

If I don't have creative control, I'm not actually... Either you clear your

with me, or I go with another ad agency.

Your choice.

I will keep you in the loop.

Good.

Okay.

So, find me a fiancé yet? Uh, no.

In less than 24 hours, how could I possibly find you a soulmate already?

What if I told you I have a better idea than you scouring the city trying to

find me a match?

Okay, what?

You.

What?

You be the fiancé.

Me be the fiancé? Yeah, I know, it's a brilliant idea.

You already have your building owner's approval, it'll be a breeze.

And then by the first of the month...

I'll already be living in the apartment. We fake the breakup.

I mean, it's a perfect plan, right?

There is one problem.

What? I am already engaged.

To who?

Not that it's any of your business, but his name is Joel.

Why don't you wear a ring? I would have noticed a ring.

Because I am having it resized, or I've been meaning to have it resized.

I presume Tony has met this fiancé?

I'm sure he has, in the past.

You don't sound sure.

Doesn't Joel come visit your apartment?

We usually hang out at his place.

Okay, so let me get this straight. You don't talk about him. He doesn't come to

visit your apartment. You don't wear a ring. Is there any reason that Tony

wouldn't think that we could be the ones who are engaged?

Pretend to be my fiancé for two weeks.

No! It's completely inappropriate.

Why? Because I'm already... engaged, and we work together.

Well, we're just pretending.

Hey, I'll be a perfect gentleman, I promise.

No. No, I actually do have a plan, and it's better.

Meet me tomorrow at Victoria Park at 1.

Alright.

I'm sorry, I gotta go.

No! Is your plan to surround ourselves with nature and hope that inspiration

strikes? We're going to find you a match.

Here? Yes, here. I have some prospective hires coming to interview.

In a park?

Yeah, why not?

Oh, yeah, I can totally see why you would think this would be the perfect

to interview you. Okay, well, it was the best I could do last minute.

Who are we interviewing, anyway?

Put an ad online, fiancé for hire, great opportunity, short term.

Uh -huh, funny.

This is going to be a disaster. Oh, come on. You agreed to try.

But I got a lot of interest.

Come on.

Well, hello.

Hi.

What am I supposed to do with that?

You're taking a vow of silence.

Tony's going to love that.

You know,

if this worked out, maybe we could go on a real date.

Date?

That's not the interview for the au pair petition.

No, it's an interview to be my fiancée.

You're trying to pay a woman to marry you? Well, when you put it like that, it

sounds bad.

So is that a no for the date?

That was a but.

Okay, maybe this was a bad idea.

Call this all off. What? No.

No. Just go get literally any other apartment. What is with this fixation?

It's rumored that Hemingway used to hang around that building when he was

younger. Did you know that? It's exactly the kind of place I knew I had to have

when I moved to Chicago.

I just have a feeling.

When you know, you know.

You had this much certainty in your love life.

Look, we don't have enough time to find you a real partner that Tony will

approve of, and hiring someone clearly isn't going to work.

We tried.

It is what it is.

It's got to be you.

No! Hmm?

No! What about Ingrid? What about the fire?

I mean, don't you want to get unstuck?

Excuse me, unstuck? Yeah.

Poppy, look at yourself.

You're admitting defeat.

About this, but about Ingrid, too.

You're letting life bulldoze over you. Why not fight for something?

By pretending to be your fiancé. Well, I mean, why not?

Because it's too... Too what? It's too crazy.

It's ridiculous. It's completely impractical. Besides, Tony already knows

am moving in with my fiancé.

So what?

We'll come up with an excuse.

It's two weeks of your life. After that, you can have a new job. You can have

control of your life.

And I can have crown molding and original wood flooring.

I mean, come on. We were going to hire someone to play my fake fiancé anyway.

Why not you?

I have to speak with my real fiancé before I agree to anything.

Yeah, of course. That seems fair.

Are you mad?

Because I can totally say no if you're mad.

I mean, it is a little weird, but you have been saying that you wanted to get

away from Ingrid for a while, and if this is how you can do that, then it's

totally fine by me.

You're sure?

You're okay with me pretending to be another man's fiancé?

Well, like you said, it's just pretend.

My place?

Actually... I think I'm going to head home. It's been a really long day.

Yeah, totally.

Oh, and don't forget, we are looking at wedding venues the day after tomorrow.

The mechanical garden.

Yeah, yeah.

Are you sure that you don't want me to walk you home?

No, I'll catch a cab.

What did he say?

I think we should go with the neutrals for the first release. They're more in

line with Ingrid's social media aesthetic.

Right, sure. You didn't answer my question.

And I think that if I'm going to work at Aspire, I will need a corner office.

With a view.

He said okay.

All right.

You got it.

So what now?

Now we need to figure out this iJordan release.

And then once our real work is done, we can talk about Tony in the apartment.

Hey, you two.

How's it going?

Well, we actually just got started. I was just telling Milo that I think we

should start with the neutral eye palettes first because they're more in

with your Instagram aesthetic.

Totally, yes.

I thought the whole idea of bringing on an ad company was to shake things up.

Why make an ad that looks just like your Instagram?

Oh, well, that's also true.

Well, it's a blend.

So some aspects should feel familiar while others are updated.

I say go bold, bright, do something different.

Right. Poppy, let's do that. I mean, in the end, it is Poppy's decision.

It's her account, after all.

Well, I'm sure you two will figure it all out, won't you?

I'll leave you to it.

And, Poppy, stop by my office, would you? After you wrap up?

Yeah, sure.

Now look what she did.

She is slightly terrifying, isn't she?

I'm just waiting to get out to face Tony.

Yes, what's the plan there?

Okay, Tony does a regular game tonight with Mrs. Kettle from 5C.

They will be playing tonight, so I thought we could do a casual

a proper introduction.

Sounds great.

Can we work now? Yeah.

What are those?

What? I'm playing doting fiancé.

Here, hold them.

I got something else, too.

Uh, what is that?

It's an engagement ring.

Jeez, Milo, that must have cost a fortune.

Well, we're supposed to be engaged, aren't we? Your ring doesn't fit, so try

this one on for size.

Uh, no.

It's okay. I can return it once this charade is over.

Okay.

Oh, perfect fit.

I'm like a savant when it comes to women's bodies.

That's a weird thing to be good at.

Uh, okay.

I am going to sneak back in through the fire escape, and then wait a minute and

come in. Okay. Oh, and bring those.

Check.

Where?

Oh, it's no fun if I have to explain.

Ah, you got me with your rook again. Ah, Poppy, you're just in time to see Mrs.

Kettle humiliate me yet again in a game of wits. You're looking fancy.

Off to meet the fiancé?

Yes.

Oh, no, not you again.

I told you already, I don't rent my apartment to cads.

You want to be a man about town, do it elsewhere.

Shoo, scram. Get out of here, you rat.

Tony, this is Milo.

Yeah, I know. I met him. And I rejected him.

Well, Milo is my fiancé.

This?

This is the ghost man?

Yes.

Why didn't you say anything when you toured the place then? And hold on.

I thought you told me you were moving into your fiancé's apartment.

Yes, I did tell you that.

And there is an explanation.

Plans changed.

Yeah, we wanted somewhere bigger, nicer, not the old bachelor pad, because I'm

through with that.

And I know how busy the poppy has been with work and how much she loves your

building, so I thought it might make things easier if I took over the

search. Isn't that right, honey bear?

Yes, you're so thoughtful, sweetheart.

You mean to say that sweet poppy, my quiet, dependable, no -drama girl in 3F,

is with you.

A man who wears engraved cufflinks?

These were actually a gift from my mother.

So, Tony, would you reconsider the penthouse for me?

I'll take it on advisement.

But only because it's you, Poppy.

That would be great. Thank you.

That's all we need. Absolutely. Thank you so much.

Now, Sugar Bunny brought you a little something.

Oh, so beautiful.

She loves flowers.

Should we go on our date?

Okay. Okay.

Good night, Tony. Good night, Poppy.

Good night.

That man has a jawline like my great love, Harry.

This board looks different.

Really?

So where are we going exactly?

One of my favorite spots to eat in Chicago.

Street food?

That is not what I expected from you.

Well, you probably think I eat out at some Michelin star joint every night,

nope. No, I'm not as fancy as that.

Deep down, I'm a pretty simple guy, you know?

Okay. Thank you.

So, what do you think?

This is pretty amazing.

Can I ask you a personal question?

Sure.

Why don't you have anyone?

Or do you not want anyone?

Jumping right to the point.

I'm sorry. It just seems like you have all these other areas of your life

figured out. So, I don't know. Why not have someone to share it with?

I don't know.

Fear of commitment?

No. I don't think of that.

I just think that I want to make sure.

Whoever I do commit to, fit.

You know? I'm waiting for my version of perfect.

But aren't relationships about compromise?

If you're waiting for perfection, you could be waiting forever.

Honestly, I would rather wait my whole life for that person than end up with

someone who's not right for me.

What do you think about a guerrilla marketing campaign for the launch?

I'm listening.

Okay, so let's see.

Ingrid got her start in social media doing beauty tutorials, how to do the

perfect smoky eye, heat with curls, that kind of thing. Okay.

So what if we went back to that but broadened it?

On the street makeover.

Real women trying the products and Ingrid showing them exactly how.

I love it.

Makes Ingrid more a woman of the people. Yes, yes, exactly.

Would she go for it, though? I mean, her brand is a bit more high -end now.

I mean, I don't know. I hope so.

But, in the end, she'll do what she wants. She always does.

Maybe we can change that.

Yeah, maybe.

It's getting late. I should probably get back.

Joel and I are touring wedding venues tomorrow.

I'll walk you home.

Okay, thank you.

Thank you.

And thank you for the pretzels.

Sure thing.

So I guess I will see you tomorrow?

Yeah, of course.

Okay.

Well, good night.

Night.

Oh!

You are a very good doting fiancé.

Thank you.

But they shouldn't go to waste, right?

Here.

I didn't think there'd be so many flowers.

Okay, so this is the area that we could do the reception if we went with the

gold package and they provide everything.

I can't feel my nose.

And then out there we could do, like, pretty white tents. Maybe a make -your

-own -Sunday station.

That'd be fun.

Photo booth?

Uh -huh.

I know you hate it.

I don't hate it. I'm allergic to it.

Joel, we're gonna have to lock down a venue.

Can we just settle on one that...

Doesn't give me hives.

You're right. I'm sorry.

Yeah.

What about old chops?

Yeah, you're sure you want to get married where you work?

We shall know the food will be good.

And we'll get a big discount.

I'm going to be late.

I need an update.

Okay, what do you think about a guerrilla marketing campaign?

On the street, live tutorial.

Nope. Absolutely not. But Ingrid, don't you think that your strength is really

how you teach people?

I've evolved, Pop.

I'm shiny now. I'm expensive.

I can't just be out in the world touching the faces of the masses. This

2017. Well, but... No, but... Oh, what are these?

A little side thing I put together.

I want you to pitch these to Milo today.

But... I'm telling you, this is the direction.

I, Jordan, Marie Antoinette.

Royalty. Unlimited glamour.

Mind ignorance to the suffering of common people?

Huh?

I'm just not sure that this is the direction that we want to go in. Present

these to Milo today.

Got it?

Yeah. Good.

That's all.

I have at least 20 more minutes before I'm even close to approaching Nirvana.

I hate it.

It's luxurious.

Queenly.

It's going to send people running for the hills.

Who wants to walk around looking like an out -of -touch French monarch?

Plenty of women.

What happened to the guerrilla marketing idea?

I changed my mind.

Nope, it's not going to work.

Okay, back to the drawing board.

So what's our next move with Tony?

Come over to my place for dinner tonight.

We'll invite Tony, play happy couple.

Great. Great.

I'll make fresh pasta from scratch. That ought to win him over. Okay, careful.

Italian food for a real Italian.

Treading into dangerous water there, don't you think? Please.

I learned this recipe in Venice.

I'll bring everything we need.

Great. Just come early.

What for?

Well, if we're going to pretend to be a real couple, we should probably know the

basics about each other, right?

Birthday, favorite color, pet peeve.

We don't actually know this stuff. Tony might expect something.

Good thinking.

Great. I will see you soon.

See you soon.

Tony? Bella, how are you? I'm good, thank you.

So, Milo is coming for dinner tonight.

Would you like to join her?

I see what you're doing.

What do you think I'm doing, in fact, Lee?

You're trying to foist your fiancé on me.

Get me to like him so I'll let you have the place. No, Tony, I would never...

Yes, that's what I'm doing, a little bit.

I got a lot of offers on this apartment, much as I want to keep you here.

And this Milo, how do I know he's a good guy?

Well, come to dinner tonight and give him a chance.

What are you cooking?

He's cooking pasta from scratch.

The man is crazy.

He's got a death wish.

Attempting pasta for an Italian?

He's begging me to dislike him.

7 .30, be there.

As if you're giving me a choice.

It took me two hours, but I finally managed to find the breed of Parmesan I

looking for. Breed?

Great place.

Yeah, thanks.

Ooh, I love this couch.

What is that, Gainsborough? Very nice.

Thanks. Can have it when I move. What? Why on earth would you get rid of a

like that? Joel and I are going to buy a new one, so if you want it, it's yours.

Ooh, voila.

Are you ready to have a religious experience?

From Papa?

Oh, yeah.

Here, let's go around here.

When I was living in Venice, I lived in the apartment above this painter named

Francesca. You're going to catch it as it comes out.

Gorgeous old woman.

She taught me how to make this, and now I am teaching you.

How long did you live in Venice?

About a year and a half.

Yeah, I wanted to find myself.

So, can you bring a little flower around here?

So, after college, I spent a couple of years traveling around Europe.

What about you? Yeah, come around here.

You ever... Live in another country? Oh, I wish.

I've always wanted to take the time to travel, but I don't know. After college,

I started working for Ingrid, and then I met Joel, and I just never really got

around to it.

But I've always wanted to live in Japan, or at least visit Japan, but I don't

know. It's hard with work and everything.

Sounds like Ingrid.

You want to go to Japan? Go to Japan.

Love what we made.

All right.

Not bad.

Yeah.

I'm fairly sure that I have hidden all my jewel artifacts.

And don't worry, I remember everything. April 5th, rain jacket yellow. You like

every kind of music except for country. With the exception of? Johnny Cash. Good

memory. And you like jazz.

That reminds me.

I really didn't know that people actually listen to jazz.

Oh, you don't listen to jazz.

You hang out with it.

Who says stuff like that?

I'm an ad man. What do you expect?

Okay, okay. That's Tony. Are you ready?

Uh... Ready.

Come in.

Thanks for having me.

Hey.

What's that I smell?

Uh... Grana Padano.

It smells like Grana Padano in here.

Yes, sir. The best Italian cheese. Finest of the Parmesan offshoots. I

Chianti. Perfect.

Uh, wine opener in here?

Uh, I'll get it. Yes, yes, yes, yes.

Why don't we all have a seat? Yes, dinner is served.

So, how did you two meet?

At the ballet.

Huh? The special showing of Swan Lake.

Right, it was in the water. Yeah, hence the water park ballet.

Water park ballet, huh?

That's strange.

It was on her birthday, April 5th.

She's an Aries.

You made this?

Yeah.

It's good.

When are you two getting married?

Oh, well, we haven't quite figured that out yet. My sister, she's a wedding

planner, top notch.

Oh, I don't know if this is necessary.

Did I tell you how many applications I've got for the penthouse?

Pumpkin, weren't you just saying that we could use some help with the planning?

You know, I was just saying that. Yeah, she was. I'll tell her to expect your

call tomorrow.

Okay, that sounds good.

You guys should stop by games night.

All right, will do.

It's a lot of fun.

What's your favorite game, Tony?

Mahjong. It's the strategy.

I'm sure.

It was a lovely evening, Poppy. It was our pleasure.

Take care, Tony.

I think I went well.

Wanda's Weddings. You know you want to make your dreams come true together.

Wanda speaking. It's me.

Hi, this is Poppy.

Your brother, Tony, passed your number along to me? Yes. Poppy, I've been

expecting your call. Now tell me everything.

Where are you at? Do you have the tablescape inspirations? What are your

styles? Mermaid or A -line? I love a long train.

Veil or no veil?

Yeah.

We haven't... figured any of that out yet well you're in desperate need of me

then i can pencil you and your bow in for 7 p .m tonight oh and please

to bring your wedding book with you to the meeting sorry wedding book yes the

story of you as a couple your inspiration boards is my guide to why

require all my clients have one done right yes yeah of course we will have

wedding book ready perfect i will see you tonight okay great great

a wedding book

This is why I knew it was a bad idea to agree to a wedding planner.

What's the big deal? We'll make her a book. How hard can it be? Oh, Milo, you

don't get it. She wants proof that you and I have spent a whole life together.

I see your point. That is a bit of an issue. We should just cancel.

No, no. If we cancel, Tony will find out and he'll be angry that we bailed on

his sister. He insinuated pretty heavily last night that my chances with the

apartment are dependent on this. Then we need to figure out how to sell

ourselves to Wanda without any hard evidence of us actually being together.

Sell ourselves like an advertisement.

Yeah, pretty much.

I have an idea.

Come here.

I taught myself to Photoshop in college.

Congrats. I've got a million pictures like this. Car ads, watch ads, luxury

brands. We'll edit them to make it look as if we've done all of it. Look.

See? We love skiing.

Yeah, that looks totally real. She's definitely going to buy that.

Okay, well, I'm not finished yet.

Just let me work my magic, sugar snap.

Okay, these nicknames need to stop.

What about the rest? What about our story, the wedding vision board?

Yeah, we'll figure it out together.

Do you even know what kind of wedding you want?

What? No.

Okay, just pretend that you are the kind of person who is into that sort of

stuff and not you.

What kind of wedding would you like?

I suppose something outside, with nature involved.

Botanical garden?

Perfect.

It's small, you know, not all these random people we don't know. I never

understood the appeal of buying steak and lobster for a bunch of strangers.

Agreed. And a nighttime reception?

It can be romantic.

Let's do that.

Hypothetically.

Take several months off and visit as many places as possible.

Why don't you want to get married again?

I didn't say that.

Okay, but why don't you like things like romance?

I didn't say that either.

Then why the aversion to commitment?

I've never been in love.

Really?

Why not?

Well, I haven't met the one, I guess.

But surely there's been women you've had feelings for.

Yeah.

I think that love should be undeniable.

It should complement your life, not complicate it.

So far, no one has been that for me.

I don't believe that people should settle just for the sake of settling.

People who are getting married aren't settling.

Of course not. No, that's not what I'm saying. I just mean, if two people

to take that step together, they should be excited about it.

Ingrid, hi.

So, what's the update?

Do Milo love my Marie Antoinette idea or what?

I'm working on it, yeah.

Poppy, this launch is on the first.

You and Milo are... We're spending a lot of time together, and yet you've shown

me next to nothing.

What exactly are you two spending all your time on? Oh, I love that.

Poppy? Hello? Are you there?

Yeah. Hi. Uh, I... We are on it, Ingrid. Don't worry. I want my Marie Antoinette

vision executed.

I know you do, and I am doing my best. Well, do better.

Live band, right? Much better than a DJ.

Oh, totally.

Oh, I see it.

I get it.

Okay.

Okay.

I see it.

Hmm.

You know, you two could be models.

Thank you.

So, we have three packages. I recommend the VIP package for you. Oh, that sounds

pricey. We'll take it. I knew I liked you.

So, cake tasting. We'll do that tomorrow afternoon?

Tomorrow. Yeah, that sounds perfect.

Oh, look. You're like a married couple already.

How cute. I can't taste cakes with you tomorrow night. Why not?

Because I am cake tasting Joel tomorrow night.

Oops.

This is all spiraling out of control.

It's going to be fine. Where is your other taste?

At the same bakery that Wanda picked. At the exact same time.

Oh. Yeah.

Oh, and Ingrid wants to stick with the Marie Antoinette theme.

No. Come on, she'll have my head if I don't at least try and push this over

line. Is that an intentional pun? Marie Antoinette will have your head?

Look, I'm not putting Aspire's name on that campaign. It's completely wrong.

What would you like me to tell her, then?

Blame it on me.

Tell her that I said no, and we have to come up with a better plan.

Ow!

The thing makes my teeth feel like an exposed nerve.

It's like putting battery acid all over an open wound.

Hey, can I talk to you about the launch?

Sure. Come in.

So Milo doesn't love the Marie Antoinette angle.

Ugh. And why not?

This is for other brands.

You have an opportunity here to build your own brand identity. Why simply copy

what other brands are doing, especially when we know that the luxury market is

cornered already?

I'm listening.

Build a name for your beauty line that is unlike anything anyone has ever seen

before. How?

I'm working on that.

This doesn't make any sense. What doesn't?

You and Milo have been spending copious amounts of time together. And yet,

you've shown me next to nothing.

We're still trying to get our ideas together.

Well, I am running out of patience. And we're also running out of time. I know.

I know.

And I promise you, you will love whatever we come up with.

Okay. But if I don't, we are going with Marie Antoinette.

Hey. So, uh, things might get a little strange.

I may have to pop in and out of this.

It's a long story, but the fake fiancé and her wedding planner are also here.

She insists on cake -taking today.

Wait, you guys have a wedding planner?

We don't even have a wedding planner. I know, I know. Just go with it, please.

Yeah, okay.

I'm just here for the cake anyway.

Thank you. Of course.

Okay.

Thank you.

Remember my allergies. No chocolate.

Yeah. Okay.

Thank you.

Thank you.

So she's on her way?

Yeah, let me just check in with her here. Oh, thank you.

Text her.

I am not waiting.

Yeah, no, she'll be here eventually.

Thanks. All right, let's...

Start with the lemon.

Okay.

Oh. Mm.

Yeah, that's really good.

No. It's too much acid.

Okay.

Um, I'll be back in a sec, okay?

Okay.

Oh, hello. Hi.

Welcome.

Try some of this before your fiance and I eat it all.

Okay.

Oh, you should try the lemon. It's amazing.

Mm, I did.

One. I... I mean, I can imagine.

It looks amazing.

Mm -hmm.

Mm -hmm.

Joel is in the next room over. This is a mess.

Seriously?

Um... What do you think?

Oh... Mm -hmm. Mm -hmm.

Mm -hmm.

Mm -hmm.

Very good.

Mm -hmm. Would you excuse me for a second?

Yeah. Go. I got this. Mm -hmm.

Hey. I think we should go with the red velvet.

Okay, great. Let's do it.

Don't you even want to try it? I just... Yeah, okay.

Yeah, oh, so good.

That's the one.

Mm -hmm.

That's definitely the one.

Cool. That was easy.

Um, so let's get out of here.

Rather... I'm sorry.

You should really get out of here.

Right. Jewel wedding.

I'll take out the bag.

Thank you.

Good night.

Couldn't hurt to take a...

Poppy.

Have you two considered dance classes?

I know a place.

No, I think we'll just skip that tradition.

We'll do the Macarena for our first dance or something.

Oh, but Sugar Bear, you love dancing.

Do I?

Yeah. Oh, perfect.

Well, then I'll sign you two up for a class.

Oh, there's my ride. I gotta go. Bye.

Bye.

Dancing? Seriously?

What? It'll be fun.

Yeah, maybe for you.

I dance like one of those wiggly inflatable things outside a car

Okay, I've gotta see that.

Seriously, we are not doing a dance class. Oh, yes we are, Pumpkins.

I said no or anything.

Right. Back to the last one.

What's going on?

Congratulations.

Duh. I mean, what?

Am I being promoted?

your engagement.

But that happened two months ago.

Well, we're celebrating now.

I mean, you never really told us when it happened, so... Well, you know, I like

to keep my personal life and my professional life separate.

Have some cake.

And, um, tonight, I want you to come with me to a new media and marketing

Very exclusive.

Invite only at Old Chops.

Wait, sorry, Old Chops?

Like the thick place?

Yeah, obviously.

Yeah, okay, great.

Okay, good!

Okay, eat your cake.

What is happening?

Sorry, camera right.

Here? Yes.

Perfect. Stay there.

And action.

Today, I'm going to show you my favorite tips for dewy skin.

Poppy, come in here. I want to try it on you. Oh, my goodness.

What are you watching?

It's a film for old videos.

I thought it might be good inspiration.

Okay. First, you have to apply primer. Look how visible my pores were.

Gross, Celine. No, I think you look pretty.

Like this.

This footage is so rough and unpolished.

I don't know. I think it had its charm.

Maybe if you're like 22.

Okay.

So Milo is adamant that we don't do Marie Antoinette.

But if you trust me, I have something in the works. Fine.

Whatever.

I have another idea anyway.

Okay. Space.

Poppy, it's like all the rage right now. All the billionaires are racing off to

leave the plant. How do you think that ties in with your beauty line?

I'll show you.

Well, don't you just adore it?

Is that tinfoil? Are we doing a PSA on recycling?

You don't get it, do you? I knew you wouldn't get it. I just think that maybe

you're trying to do too much.

Space isn't...

It's too much.

It's deeply complicated and a frontier we don't yet fully understand.

No.

It's like faces or whatever.

It's cool and it's the future.

But again, what does this have to do with your makeup line?

It says, I'm out of this world.

Listen, Poppy.

You'll see tonight at the mixer.

You're blinded by love right now and clearly can't see the depth of my genius

this. Forget pre -revolutionary France.

We're going to the great beyond.

This is Ingrid.

Oh, amazing rain, by the way.

She did good.

Stefan? Hey, babe.

How long was I wearing you?

Shoot.

Okay.

I don't know what to do with this.

How are you?

I can't wait to talk to you and your fiancé now that I know he's your fiancé.

that why you invited me to this? Because you knew he'd be here?

Yeah, I invited him.

Oh, there he is!

You know, if I knew you were marrying such a hunk, I would have congratulated

you a lot sooner.

Uh, no.

Milo, the man of the hour.

So, cat's out of the bag. Uh, how did you... The book. Sorry, what's wrong?

book? That adorable little vision board dreamlike romantic wedding book of you

guys? I died.

It's so cute.

I know, I know, I shouldn't have snooped, but I was just so curious what

were up to, and I wanted to know what ideas you had for the project, and then

saw the book, and it all made sense.

All that time spent together?

I mean, duh!

You two are in... love. Yep. You figured it out.

Isn't that right, Sugar Snap?

Yeah.

Totally. You guys are the cutest.

Love you guys.

Milo, can I talk to you privately for a quick sec?

Sure thing. Shortcake.

Don't be long, lovebird.

One sec.

She found the book?

a surprise engagement party this morning.

With cake?

She despises cake. She says it's edible sponge for people with weak disposition.

Oh, and now she's got some tear about space.

Space? Mm -hmm. She is 86, the French princess idea, and now she wants to be

Lance Armstrong.

The bicycle guy? No, no, the space guy.

But Neil.

Okay, who cares?

The point is that my boss now thinks that we are engaged.

It's not just Tony and his sister that we are lying to anymore. This charade

officially infiltrated our professional lives.

Who cares?

Ingrid is not going to be your boss much longer, right?

You don't know where we are right now, do you?

A mid -level steakhouse?

This?

This is my nightmare.

My fiancé, my real fiancé, he is the chef here.

What? And I don't know why I didn't mention that earlier, but I'm mentioning

now. He is working right now, as this entire party is learning that you and I

are apparently engaged.

And I can't, I cannot...

It costs this ungodly expensive ring because I'm terrified that I will lose

and I will owe you a million dollars or whatever this costs. No, no. Honestly,

what kind of a cave does someone have to dig through to extract a diamond this

big anyway? Okay, okay, okay.

I get it.

You're stressed.

But Joel knows about all this.

He gave you his blessing, didn't he?

No. No, just explain it to him.

He'll understand.

Seems like an easygoing guy.

Yes, you were right. I will explain it to Joel.

I'll explain the mix -up. No big deal.

No big deal.

Somehow she found out about it, but anyway, he's here. He showed up. Ingrid

somehow figured this out. I'm so sorry.

It's fine. She's talking about us being engaged. She's telling you you're not

bothered. It's fine. Okay.

Oh.

I'd like to make a little toast. Oh, no. I know today is all about talking shop

and blah, blah, blah, but there is also cause for celebration today.

She's not. Because my very own Poppy Evans is engaged to none other

than Milo Asher.

So cheers to the happy couple. What a marketing powerhouse, am I right?

Kiss, kiss.

No. No.

Kiss! No. Kiss!

Kiss! Kiss!

Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!

Alright, alright.

Gotta keep it professional here, people.

Come on.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

This might not be the best time to remind you, but tonight, game night.

I found three women for the on the street makeovers.

Ingrid will love them. She won't be able to say no.

It's a bit of a risk though, isn't it? Springing it on her like that. I mean,

don't get me wrong. I respect it, but I find it's better when she doesn't have a

chance to overthink.

And like you said, I'm just not going to be my boss much longer. So I might as

well go out big.

Well, whatever you need, I'll follow your lead.

Thanks.

I'm sorry that Ingrid found out.

Okay. It's not your fault.

And I,

I hope that all of it hasn't been putting a strain on your relationship.

not what I wanted.

You know, the weird thing is, it's not.

At all.

Well, a good thing, right?

Yeah. Yeah.

I mean, Joel is great. He's so easy.

He's very understanding.

I just... He's great. He's really great.

Poppy, are you sure that you want to... Ah, the happy couple.

Mrs. Kettle's on her way down. We are going to kick your butts at Mahjong.

Bring it on.

Parrot seven dot.

Three red dragon.

Six seven eight.

All four cardinal directions.

Boom. I knew there was a reason my grandma taught me this game. Poppy, you

brought a ringer into our midst.

So... How are wedding preparations going with Wanda?

Oh, yeah. She's great.

Yeah. Oh, sorry. I have to take the last minute prep for the makeover ambush.

Okay.

Are you writing your own vows?

Yep. Yep.

Intimate ceremony.

Have you written them yet?

Well, no.

Not exactly.

Give us a sample.

Oh, I don't know.

Go on.

Okay.

Um, I guess what I would say would be, Poppy, you are unlike

any woman I've ever met.

You're more selfless and hardworking than is necessary.

You... Come on.

Spit it out. Thank you.

Bye. Come on.

Well, I guess I never thought I would meet someone who had dreamed up the same

kind of life that I had.

Who wanted the same things that I want.

And who I felt like I could have beside me through it all.

I'd always thought of life as a solo trip.

But then I realized that having her, her company, would just make every step of

the way that much bigger.

And that's what I want. I just want to be fearless together and grab everything

that life can offer us.

Plus, She's the only person who's ever made me feel safe in a confined space.

Oh, that's really good.

Yeah? Yeah.

Sorry about that.

What did I miss?

Oh, nothing. Just some chatting.

So Wanda says you two are in for a dance class.

Yep. Yes, we are.

Here we are.

Come and go.

Excuse me.

I don't know what I'm doing.

That's okay.

Just let me lead.

You two are going to be great.

Okay.

Good evening, that's all.

I don't think he likes me very much.

Well, to be fair, you are radiating misery.

Is this better?

I'm at work.

Relax. All you have to do is let me move you.

See?

I got you.

Are you sure you've never done this before?

Never in my life.

And then when the music suddenly got faster.

And then you dipped me.

I didn't even know I was dippable.

You two are just fab together.

Good night. Love you, doll.

Good night, Wanda.

Well,

it's pretty late, so I should probably get home.

And pack for my move.

Yeah, of course. It's a couple days now.

Plus, the big makeover ambush is tomorrow, so I have to get ready for

You know, this was fun.

It was.

I never thought I'd say that about dancing.

I probably shouldn't say this, but I'm really... Oh.

Ingrid, hi.

I got your message.

Can you tell me what's going on? You know I detest surprises.

Just trust me. You will see when you get there tomorrow.

It better be worth it. I'm going to be missing hot yoga with Stefan.

It's going to be good. I promise. Just be there tomorrow.

I'm sorry. What were you saying?

Not important.

Good luck tomorrow.

And thanks for the dance.

Tony, hi.

Milo.

Wanda says she thinks you and Poppy are the real deal.

As far as I'm concerned, you make Poppy happy, or I'll write my books.

The apartment's yours if you want it. You can come by tomorrow and sign the

papers. That's fantastic.

Thank you.

Hey, uh, you really think we're the real deal?

Don't you?

Yeah, I really do.

Over here.

Come on.

What is happening right now?

Ta -da!

Poppy, I figured it'd be a good idea to test the products out on female women. I

already told you, we're going with my face idea.

I already said no to your gorilla idea.

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

No, no, no, no, no.

Never fingers for that.

Brushes only for the eyes. They're very sensitive, so you want to be nice to

them. In a sweeping motion, like this.

Push, push.

Like windshield wipers, you have to be very gentle with the eyes.

Thank you so much, Tony. It'll be a pleasure to have you here. All right,

see you soon. All right.

Hey, Joe, all right?

Oh, it's, uh, you.

Milo. Right.

What are you looking at?

She always talks about a building like it's magical or something.

I guess I just want to have a look.

But honestly, I don't get it. It just looks like an old building to me.

Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right?

Yeah.

So, uh, this is awkward.

It's so awkward.

Hey, thanks for being cool with all this.

Signed the papers. Got the penthouse. Sure thing.

And Poppy is great. You must be really excited to be marrying her.

Yeah, we've, um... We've been together a long time. It just felt like the

natural next step.

I mean...

You know when you've been with someone for a long time and then you get

That's what people do, right?

Whoa. That's what people do.

Buddy, you okay?

I mean, it's just a lot.

I'm going to be with her forever.

I get it.

Commitment is scary.

I just can't shake this feeling.

And I should be more excited.

What would you do if you were me?

I would marry her.

And I would love her every single day of her life because that's what she

deserves.

You have someone irreplaceable here. Don't mess that up.

Yes. Yes.

Gorge. Love.

Obsessed.

So beautiful.

Thank you.

Ingrid, you were so good. You made these women's day.

I did, didn't I?

So, can we use this footage for the campaign?

How about you cut something together and we'll chat later, okay?

Okay.

I'll see you back at the office.

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Hey, can we, um, can we talk?

We did it.

I got the apartment.

And you flawlessly executed an ad campaign.

We should talk.

What did you say to Joel?

About what?

About my engagement.

It's off.

And he said that you spoke to him about it.

So, what did you say?

I... Bobby, I'm so sorry. What did you say, Milo? Nothing.

He was standing outside of your apartment having an existential crisis,

told him that you deserve to be happy. I didn't think he was going to leave you.

I mean, come on, that's not real love.

Oh, are you the expert on love now?

You who have never even been in love. I'm sorry, how would you even know the

first thing about it? Okay, that's not fair. No, it's not fair. It's not...

My entire life just got blown up because you had to have a stupid apartment.

All of this lying, this pretending to be engaged, this pretending to be some

happy couple.

Milo, this has cost me everything.

I swear, I didn't mean for this to happen.

But, I mean, you got to admit, that's a sign that he was wrong for you.

You know, not everyone is going through life waiting for perfection.

Maybe for you, life is just listening to jazz and traveling and waiting for the

most wonderful person to come along. But most people aren't like you.

I'm not like you.

Yeah, I did want to leave my job.

Working out of fire.

Because yes, it is horrible coming to work every day for someone who refuses

even notice me. And yeah, maybe Joel wasn't your version of passionate.

But we were fine together, and you just can't seem to understand that people are

fine just being fine together.

You don't want just fine.

I don't want just fine. Why don't we try for spectacular?

The truth is, I've known for a long time now that, Poppy, you are...

So... That was a lot.

Let me just show you what... Get up.

Ingrid, I can explain. Explain how you were sneakily trying to leave my company

to go work for a guy who you were pretending to be engaged to?

And what was that little stunt in the park, huh? Was that just an attempt to

embarrass me on your way out?

I think I'll pass. If you just watch the video... You're fired, Poppy.

Ingrid, it has been a long time, and you haven't promoted me.

If you would just watch this, I can show you... David.

I said you're fired.

Ingrid. You two, out!

Poppy.

Wait, Poppy.

Wait. Poppy, wait!

Hey, how are ya?

I'm fine.

Actually, no.

What's going on?

I need to stay in my apartment, if that's okay.

I'm not moving out anymore.

I figured as much when Milo called earlier to say he wouldn't be taking the

Pentos anymore.

Milo's not my... You're a fiancé.

I know.

What?

I had to fix the leaky faucet in your apartment last month, remember?

I saw the pictures of the real guy.

No offense to him, but he obviously ain't Milo.

So you knew this whole time?

Yeah.

Wait, then why did you agree to give Milo the apartment?

I suppose I saw a change in you.

You seem more alive.

Plus, Wanda got a little spare change out of the arrangement.

And Milo is actually solid.

I misjudged him.

He's a good guy.

Fiancé or not.

Well, that's over now, too, in its own way.

I'm sorry to hear that.

Poppy, you've lived here for seven years.

And you know what I've noticed in all that time? I always pay my rent checks

early. Besides that, you go out of your way for everybody else.

You help Mr. Jackson with his plants.

You feed Miss Caroline's cats whenever, she asked. You race out of here every

morning to get to a job where you're not appreciated.

Oh. So, what is for you, Poppy?

What do you mean? What do you do that is only, exclusively, solely for you?

Well, I... Maybe it's time you put yourself first.

You're so busy filling everybody else's cup.

Maybe it's time you let somebody pour something into yours.

Thanks, Tony.

Oh, and sorry, but the elevator's on fritz again.

Oh.

Alright Poppy, let's see what you've come up with.

Something for me.

You'll have to see it with my receptionist. What?

Look, if you're here to berate me, there's no need. I feel bad enough.

I should have listened to Poppy about everything from the beginning.

Absolutely.

She's great at what she does.

I guess I knew that, but...

I'm a jerk.

That makes two of us.

You fell for her.

For real, didn't you?

I don't know. That's kind of a hard thing to quantify, you know?

Did you?

Yeah.

Yeah, I did.

So, it looks like we've got a girl to get back.

Banned into blush next.

Blush, you know, as in the thing that makes your cheekbones pop?

You fired me, remember?

Yes, from your old job.

But you have a new one now.

That's right. What are you talking about?

I'm making you president of my company.

Effective immediately.

Don't be late tomorrow.

Okay, what? Seriously?

Oh, and the campaign is live.

Your campaign.

Congrats, Pres.

Wow, Ingrid.

Okay, this is amazing.

You're amazing, Poppy.

I'm sorry I didn't see it sooner.

Now get down here. It's game night.

Okay. Wait, sorry, game night.

Here? Hello, Ingrid?

How does she know?

Two words.

Square.

Tiny.

Hey, Poppy!

What are you doing here?

I invited him.

Hoppy, wait.

Hang on.

Wait.

Please.

I came here to tell you the truth.

I had said before that I had never been in love.

But that's not true anymore.

I had more fun in our fake relationship than I've ever had in a real one.

You know, all the stuff that we planned together, I know is supposed to be

pretend.

What if I don't want it to be pretend anymore?

What if I want it to be real?

All of it.

What? The stupid Photoshop pictures of us skiing. I want that to be real.

I want to do everything with you, Poppy. Everything. I want to...

travel with you and make dinner and listen to jazz and i want my life to

with you always maybe you're not perfect but you are perfect

for me falling in love with you bobby

people don't listen to jazz they

hang out with it

I'm falling for you, too.

Congratulations again.

Okay, so what happened with the penthouse?

I'm keeping it empty, you know, just in case you two ever... We already picked

out the cake.

Oh, okay, one step at a time, guys.

So where did you move?

Well, Tony introduced me to his cousin Luca, who owns a pre -war building just

couple blocks away.

My new apartment has a butler's pantry and the original transom.

That's amazing.

Yeah.

So we're neighbors.

Yeah. Oh, by the way, are you still getting rid of that Gainsborough couch?

Over my dead body.

This is adorable and all, but are we going to play the game or what?

Yes! Okay.

Good night.

Start again.

Okay. Two words. Two words. Bug.

Small. Small ass.

Hey, pumpkin.

Yeah. Do you want to go to Japan?

I already bought my ticket.

Yes.

Absolutely, honey bear. To Japan.

To Japan.

That ain't a word.
