The following program is rated PG and
may contain mature subject matter viewer

discretion is advised.

Good morning.

Is it a double chai tea morning?

You know me so well. I mean, right up.

Oh, you don't happen to carry choco
-loopers, do you?

We do have a nice cacao granola that you
could add milk to.

I'll take it.

You have your usual weekly meeting in
the conference room in 20, followed by

back -to -back calls.

City Beast Chicago wants to talk about
the new pop -up restaurant account.

Chicago Architecture Association wants
to talk about a rebrand. And the summer

music festival campaign is due by the
end of the month.

I'm exhausted just by saying that.

How is our progress going on the music
festival campaign?

Two of my posts went viral last week.

Excellent. Oh, can you pull some
background on Chicago architecture?

Already started compiling this morning.
What would I do without you?

I'm going to savor my latte.

See you in 20.

See you soon. Thank you.

Knock, knock.

They're at the new chief surgeon of San
Francisco Hospital. I am definitely not

used to hearing that yet.

I bet Mom and Dad have told everyone in
Ireland by now how the daughter they

thought would be an only child until I
miraculously showed up one day.

Now look at you.

Thanks, Lizzie.

I can't believe I'm about to get on a
plane and go buy a house across the

country. I know. We need to change the
subject or I am going to get way too sad

that my sister is moving 2 ,000 miles
away with my only niece.

Ruby is so excited to hang with her Aunt
Lizzie for two whole weeks while Mom

gets set up with a new job.

Oh, I can't wait.

So how was the kindergarten drop -off
this morning? Was she too sad? She did

great. I gave her the biggest hug.

Such a good kid.

Last time I saw her, she kept talking
about how much she loves school. It's

cute, but it's kind of weird.

Well, she's a weird kid sometimes.

Yeah, and she kept talking about her
friend, Jamie, and how Jamie is so, so

funny. Jamie is so funny. He's actually
really... My meeting is starting.

I have to go.

Okay.

This is not goodbye.

This is see you in two weeks.

Have a safe flight.

Love you.

All right.

Bye.

Okay. Morning, everyone.

As we head into our busy summer season,
I just want to remind you all that fine

words butter no parsnips.

Now, let's hear some account updates.

What do you have for me? Elizabeth?

Great news. I got our young tech clients
onto Manhattan Cultural Magazine's

coveted 32 under 32 list.

Excellent work.

Excellent work.

I'm hoping that it will lead to more
tech referrals.

You know, that reminds me. I was at my
bowling club this weekend, which, by the

way, I have extended an open invitation
to everyone in this office to join. And

to date, no one has accepted.

Anyway.

At Bowling Club, Martin, our best
bowler, is also in the restaurant

And Martin said he heard rave reviews
about Elizabeth's work on Restaurant

We're lucky to have her on our team.

So who else has an update for us?

What do you think, Ruby?

I think he looks hungry.

Well, we should see if you want some
dinner, then.

Will you be our chef?

Welcome to Chef Ruby's Restaurant.

Today's special is a very nice flower.

No problem.

That will be right up. One flower
special, please, Chef.

Looks delicious, Chef.

We have one very hungry caterpillar.

I think he loves it.

Come in.

Do you want me to order you a late
lunch?

Late lunch?

Oh, no.

Oh, no, I am very late for pick -up.
Pick -up?

It's not in the calendar. Do you want me
to do it for you? Is that your dry

cleaning? My niece.

Niece?

Hi.

Hi. I'm Jamie, Ruby's teacher.

You're Jamie.

Okay, I'm Elizabeth, Kat's sister.

Nice of you to finally show up.

Oh, I'm sorry, I realize I'm a little
late.

The school day ended at 2 and it's
almost an hour past that.

I work at a big PR firm, sometimes
things get a little crazy and I just

completely lost track of time.

Which firm?

The Bridge Shore group.

What? Uh, nothing.

No, what was that? You definitely, you
definitely just gave my firm a look.

I'm familiar with them. I used to work
in the corporate world. You did?

Yeah, Wall Street firm, actually.

Wow. Wow.

No, um, I mean... The Wall Street to
kindergarten pipeline is, uh,

Yes, very unexpected.

Are you burnt out yet?

No, why?

Trust me, you will be.

Oh, okay.

I will be there in just a minute.

I had to climb over several scooters in
the hallway.

One almost took me out.

On Mondays, we do relay races so the
kids will remember their numbers.

Ah. This school seems very non
-traditional. The head of school must be

creative.

Thank you.

That's me.

Ah.

You are the head of school.

I founded the butterfly primary myself.

Wow, that's really great.

Let's meet Grandpa now.

Aha!

Um, the caterpillar's name is Grandpa.
That's what happens when you let a bunch

of five -year -olds vote on something.

Well, hello there, Grandpa. It is so
nice to meet you.

He's going to be next season.

Ruby's right. In fact, we have a
butterfly graduation happening next week

mark Grandpa's metamorphosis and these
kiddos graduating kindergarten.

Oh, graduation.

Well, do they know which first grade
they are getting into yet?

It is a big transition, and celebrating
helps them process it.

Of course.

Ruby's mom did volunteer to be a room
mom for graduation, but I understand if

you can't do it.

Oh, no, I can do that. If Kat can do it,
so can I.

I don't think you know what you're
getting yourself into.

I can handle it. Trust me.

Okay. Can we go to the playground?

Yes, yes, just for a little bit.

So nice to meet you, Jamie.

It was nice to meet you too, Elizabeth.

Bye, Ruby.

Don't like your breakfast?

That's chocolate granola.

I thought chocolate cereal was your
favorite.

Do you have chocolate loopers?

No, but let me see if I can get some
today, okay?

Oh, that's work. We should get going.
Why don't you get dressed for school?

You're wearing pajamas to school?

Silly. Mommy lets me sometimes if I
want.

Um, I guess you forgot to tell me that.

We should get going.

Wait, what is this?

A snack schedule?

Every day one of mom's or dad's brings a
snack.

Oh, so today is our day to bring snacks?

Yes, and I see since dad brought
cupcakes.

Oh, that sounds fancy.

You know what? One second. I have an
idea.

How about the chocolatey granola?

I have a large jar of cashews.

No nuts at school.

What about beet leather?

Ew. Okay, that's fair.

You know what?

What do you want?

We'll just stop at the store on the way
there.

Yeah? Yay! Okay, problem solved.

Hello, welcome back.

I'll be in in just a sec.

Wait, wait.

Ruby, nice pajamas.

Why don't you join everyone inside?

Have fun.

Well, good morning.

Hello. School starts promptly at 8 .30.

Yes, I realize that.

Tardiness is disrespectful and
disruptive for everyone.

Of course.

I just wanted to bring this.

Thank you for fulfilling your snack
duty.

Great. Well, if that's all, I'm going to
go ahead and get to work.

Ruby's in PJ's today?

Yeah, she said her mom sometimes lets
her wear... She does not let her wear

pajamas to school.

I was played. I was so played. She
played me. Like a fiddle.

My mom left me.

It's a kid's classic.

Oopsie. Well, on that note, I'm going to
go to work, and I will be back for

pickup on time.

I am so sorry, everyone. I apologize for
my tardiness.

I'm glad you're here.

We have a problem.

Oh.

The best accessory to any woman's outfit
is an engagement ring.

Had you seen this?

No, I've had a bit of a hectic morning.

Apparently, it's making the rounds on
social media. It's a bloodbath. Let me

guess. The headline is, she's out of
touch?

Old -fashioned?

Exactly. So, Paloma is our newest
client.

Ah. Your newest client, actually.

My newest client?

Well, you're one of our strongest
account managers, and you have a good

on this Internet stuff.

I can't make heads or tails of it. Yes,
I can handle this.

Okay.

Everyone, you can go, except for
Elizabeth.

So, she has a new line of rings coming
out in two weeks.

And this off -the -hand comment
shattered her brand's credibility

Okay. So we just need to try and salvage
the launch of the new campaign.

And time is of the essence here, so I
need your A -game on this.

Absolutely.

This is great that she even chose the
Bridge Shore Group.

I'm actually kind of surprised that she
didn't choose a firm in New York.

Well, that's not to say she didn't.

Wait, what?

I heard she has a reputation for being a
bit difficult sometimes.

And some firms have dropped her.

Oh, I see.

But I have some good news. If everything
goes well in the next two weeks, the

firm is prepared to make you a partner.

Wow. Okay.

Wow. That's amazing.

Well, I will not let the firm down.

As they always say, bad news travels
fast. So, let's get this crisis averted.

Yes, let's do just that.

I got this.

Partner, that's amazing news.

I also told Edward that you are looking
to take on more responsibility. So, if

this all goes well...

You're going to be a new account
manager, Missy. Thank you. This is

we've been working towards. There's just
one maybe complication. What?

I'm babysitting my niece for another two
weeks.

Oh, right.

Did you tell Edward?

No, I don't want him to have any doubts.

We can handle this client.

Hello there.

I am on time.

Miraculously. Okay.

Thanks for your attempt at the class
snack.

Attempt? I'm sure you meant well, it's
just we opt for healthier options and

food snacks are basically pure sugar.

Oh, well that's what Ruby suggested.

And Ruby?

Played Aunt Lizzie again. Wow.

My niece just dropped these off. Looks
like we can do a little extra finger

painting this year.

Oh, are you in need of supplies?

We get rave reviews from the parents,
but enrollment's low. Wow.

So low that I might not be able to
reopen next year.

What? That's awful. Ruby loves this
place so much.

Word of mouth is great, but we need more
students to enroll pretty quickly.

Well, it sounds like you just have an
awareness problem.

Yeah.

I have a proposition for you.

A proposition?

Yes. Because you are such an expert with
kids.

How about you help me with child care?
Just watch Ruby after school for me a

times, and in exchange, I will lend you
my PR skills.

Your PR skills?

Draw up some publicity for this place.
Really get families interested.

It'll have to happen pretty quickly,
next couple weeks.

And I don't think the famed British
Shore group can make that kind of magic

happen.

What? It's just going to be so
satisfying when I prove you wrong.

Because I happen to be very good at my
job.

All right.

Cut yourself a deal.

Deal.

This is going to be fun.

Yes. Fun.

We fit today in. We were late.

You were waiting for that, weren't you?

I was.

Okay, well, forgive me. Carol bravely
stayed behind with all the kids so I

come do this.

Are you ready for phase one of the brand
new public relations campaign for

the butterfly primary?

Let's see what you got.

We are going to start by building a
robust social media presence.

I don't believe in all that stuff. It's
so superficial.

Sometimes you gotta play the game.

But what if I don't want to play the
game?

Then the amazing school you founded
might close. What's more important?

All right.

Fine.

Okay. Since you are the founder and
you're photogenic, I

wanted to include you in the first batch
of food.

You think I'm photogenic?

I'm like a professional camera -ready...

Gotcha. Can you stand right here?

Yeah. Okay, here is where I was thinking
we'd start. I think this cityscape will

give a nice professional backdrop.

So how's Ruby?

Great. She video chats with her mom now
almost every morning before school.

Oh, good. I gotta say, I was impressed
with her newest art project.

You were, huh?

Yeah.

I've never seen a kid glue popsicle
sticks so straight and just...

perfectly aligned.

Okay, I may have helped her just a
little bit, but she was getting so

frustrated. I know it sounds crazy, but
kids getting frustrated is a good thing.

Is it good for me, though?

Making mistakes is good.

It's really good for their development
if they fail and learn to try again.

You know, it helps them build
resilience. Go a little more to your

Develop their creativity and... Oh!

Yep.

The flat...

Pavement really got you there. I told
you I'm not good at this sort of thing.

Well, look, I got it.

Come on, come on. I think we can get
that one.

Put that in front page.

Let's jump right into phase two.

Phase two?

Market research.

A crucial part of any public relations
campaign.

Just follow my lead.

Okay.

Be careful, sweetie.

Um, excuse me.

Hi, I'm Elizabeth.

Hi, I'm Jamie. Hi.

Could we get your thoughts on
kindergarten?

Oh, sure. Are you and your husband
looking at school?

Yes, we are.

That's what my husband and I sounded
like, too. Well, we're interested in

learning more about the local school.

How old's your little one?

Oh, she's four.

So precious.

Now, is she already enrolled in
kindergarten?

Oh, we had her on the wait list at
Forest Grove Park Academy before she was

born. Oh, that's some early planning.

What a super mom you are. That's
amazing.

Very proactive.

Have to be prepared.

You do, yes. That is what I'm always
telling my honey over here.

Oh, I'm sorry. She's not allowed on the
monkey bars.

Okay. Wow.

That one. Okay. Market research.

Market research.

Involves talking to lots of people.
Okay. Okay.

No worry.

Have you decided on a kindergarten yet?

Oh, we're still narrowing it down.

Is the butterfly primary on your list?

I don't think I've heard of it.

But we want to introduce technology and
screens as early on as possible.

You do?

Yeah.

Technology is the future.

Of course.

Yeah, on second thought, that doesn't
really sound like the butterfly primary.

Hey, Jimmy, where's your iPad?

Well, that was a bust.

No.

What about some achievements for the
spreadsheet dad?

Achievements? Yeah.

We do some tests with the butterfly kids
and then publicize the scores.

I don't believe in all that stuff,
especially for kindergartners.

Sure, but isn't it a good idea to get a
sense for what a kid's natural abilities

might be?

They have their whole life to achieve.

I mean, yeah, we can focus on the
letters and the numbers, but I want them

good people, first and foremost.

A strong foundation of character.

That's more important right now than
being able to read big words.

By this time next week, everyone in
Chicago is going to know about the

primary.

No sign of her. She's demanding an
update.

She's here? Yeah.

Okay.

Uh, excuse me?

Loma?

Hey. Hi.

It's so nice to meet you. I'm Elizabeth,
your account manager.

She's young, no?

Elizabeth is our star here.

You're in good hands.

What do you have for me?

I'm so glad that you asked.

Franny, if you'll please, if you just
want to take a look. What I am proposing

is that we take samples from the new
line and send them to a select group of

social media influencers in exchange for
a review and a post.

Specifically, targeting women that are
not partnered up.

Even some guys.

Everyone wears jewelry nowadays.

Yes, this will show that your jewelry,
your beautiful line, is for everyone.

That everyone deserves to have a diamond
ring on their finger, regardless of

their engagement status.

I'm intrigued.

Well, shall we move forward then?

All right.

Bye, Noah.

See you tomorrow.

Well, that is everyone home safely.

I'm going to stay and do a little
gardening out here for a little bit, and

later tonight, Henry's going to take me
to the plant nursery.

Well, that sounds like a very lovely
evening.

The plus side of being married for
almost 30 years, you can make a date out

almost anything.

What about you, young man?

Any plans tonight?

Not much. Our room mom's stopping by for
some graduation planning.

Don't forget to have some fun, Jamie.

I'll be sure to schedule myself some
fun.

Oh, hey.

Thank you so much for babysitting on
such short notice. I completely forgot

about this room mom meeting. What?

What problem?

I have absolutely no idea what to do
with kids. I've never even babysat

and I may have watched a creepy movie
about the ghost of a Victorian girl, but

that's beside the point.

Listen, I have spent a ton of time with
Ruby over the years, but I am just now

realizing that I have no idea what I'm
doing.

You'll be great. Just be your amazing
self.

Okay.

I brought an empty cup of hot.

I love these.

Uh, isn't that more of a cat thing?

Wait, you know what? Hey, maybe, maybe
it's also a Ruby thing.

Let's find out.

Okay. Okay, this meeting will not take
long at all. I will be back as soon as

possible. In a minute.

You got this.

Hello again.

Thank you for coming.

Uh, of course.

How was the rest of your day?

Good. Just very busy.

Yeah, we were busy, too.

We did yoga.

Wow, five -year -olds doing yoga. That
must have been quite a sight.

Yeah.

So, what's on the room mom agenda? Do
you want me to paint something, put

together some snacks?

What are we doing?

Is everything okay?

Yeah, yeah, of course. Why?

You seem a little flustered.

No, no, I do not.

Well, it sounds like someone needs to
use the feelings meter.

Uh, are you serious?

Oh, I'm dead serious.

Ah, well, I'm fine. I think we should
get to work.

No.

No.

You are not going to stop. Oh, great.

This is a child's chair. It is intended
for a child.

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

So, how are you feeling?

Are you feeling happy?

Are you feeling sad?

Oh, wow.

Are you feeling angry?

Oh, that is quite an expression.

But this graduation ceremony isn't going
to plan itself.

Fine. Just give it a try.

Fine. I'll see if this will expedite the
process.

Ah.

I am feeling anxious.

Thank you for sharing that you feel
anxious.

It's okay to feel anxious sometimes.

Um. I'm also feeling swamped, but I
doubt there is a emoji battle.

We don't, but thank you for your
feedback.

One may be added.

Thank goodness.

I'm not going to pry, but I believe in
you.

There might be something to this. I'm
actually feeling a little bit better.

See? Okay, yes.

All right.

Let's get down to business so we can get
you back to your prior obligations.

Butterfly graduation is just around the
corner, so I think we start with

decorations.

So, follow me.

We are going to cover this in
butterflies, like snow angels.

Wait, what?

I'm not afraid to get messy in
kindergarten.

Uh, well, I am not in kindergarten, and
I am very much in my work

class. You're scared to get a little bit
of pain on your clothes?

Yes. Yes, I am.

My blazer and I are both terrified.

Well, because you're scared to get pain
on your clothes, we will use the dental

fit. Why do I feel like that was always
the plan?

Because I want to keep you on your toes.

I think this one will look really good
right there.

Yeah. Well,

that didn't work at all, so... That's
good.

I have a brilliant idea.

What if we turn the butterfly graduation
into an open house for the public?

So, like, parents and kids can drop in.

Yeah, not just drop in, but really
experience all of this, everything

great, everything that's so fun about
the butterfly primary.

I really like that idea.

I think it could work.

Great. It's settled. I will get right on
it.

Decorations turned out fabulous.

I had a great painting partner.

He did. My butterflies are way better
than his.

No.

Thanks for waking Ruby up so I could say
goodnight.

She went right back to sleep
miraculously.

My schedule at the hospital has been
grueling.

I don't know what I would have done
without your help this week.

It's the least I can do.

How are you doing?

It can't be the easiest thing to have
the kiddo with you while you try to do

your job.

Uh, it's fine, actually.

A breeze.

Hey, maybe this is good practice for
you.

If you decide to have kids of your own
someday.

No, not in the plans. You know that.

Okay, well, I'm just mentioning it.

You never know.

I definitely know.

Not in the plans.

Okay.

Everything's been going okay?

Yep.

Jamie, Ruby's teacher, has been so
helpful.

He's a great guy, isn't he?

Have you been? Okay, big day tomorrow. I
gotta go. I love you.

Bye.

What's wrong, hon?

You haven't even touched your chocolate
bloopers.

I'm not that hungry.

I have a big meeting this morning, so
guess who's going to take you to school?

Who?

Jamie?

Dot is broken.

She looks okay to me.

No, she won't want to go to school.

I'll have to stay home with her.

I will be right back.

You take care of Dottie.

I am so glad you're here.

We have a problem.

That way?

Hey, Groovy.

What's going on?

Daddy got hurt on the leg.

Daddy got hurt on the leg?

You might have something that can help.

Did she get hurt right here?

Yeah.

There we go.

All better.

So her dinosaur is feeling better.

She is all bandaged up. I don't think
her mood was really about Dottie at all.

think we'd be a little sad that her mom
wouldn't be here for her usual Friday

pizza night.

Right.

were on the phone last night. That must
have come up.

That must be it.

I have no idea what I would have done
without you.

I'm just holding up my end of the
bargain.

Bargain? Yeah, our deal.

I help you, you help me.

Of course, bargain.

Good deal.

Great.

Ruby,

you ready for school?

Thank you so much, Jamie.

Mom, let's go.

We're already seeing a ton of posts and
videos from our influencers.

Wow.

Bud seems to be building. This looks
great so far.

Just got off the phone with Paloma. She
seems very happy with the change in

tide.

That is such a relief.

You know, if you can keep this up
through the jewelry launch, this will be

huge gift for the firm.

And obviously, we're sailing for your
promotion.

Yes.

Thanks in large part to you.

This is really good stuff.

Thank you so much for watching her after
school.

Of course.

Hey, bud.

What are we doing?

Ruby is normally a great friend, but
today she got a little upset and ruined

classmate Matilda's art project.

Wow. Okay, well, that certainly doesn't
sound very kind.

I think we need to draw Matilda an
apology picture.

Wait here.

Usually Ruby's a great kid.

Yeah, she is.

You know, kids can act up when they're
craving attention at home.

Oh, well, that's not it.

You don't think so?

No. I mean, maybe it's a little weird
with the transition of her mom not

being around, but I've been spending a
lot of time with her.

Sorry.

Okay, maybe this is proof that I'm not
as good at balancing at all as I would

like to be.

The thing is, is this campaign that I'm
on right now, if it goes well, I'm up

for partner at my firm.

Wow.

That's great news.

Although it means that I'm expected
to... Always be available?

50, 60 -hour work weeks?

Exactly.

You know what? I'm going to find a way
to prioritize my time with Ruby.

I don't know how, but I'm going to
figure it out.

I believe in you.

So we're still good for a meeting at 7 p
.m. with the address I texted you?

Yes.

Thank you again.

All right, Miss Ruby.

Why don't we get started on that apology
lecture?

What's the occasion?

I'm meeting with Elizabeth.

That woman you did arts and crafts with?

Our very helpful room mom? Yes. We're
meeting for dinner to discuss graduation

plans. Is the butterfly graduation
really the reason for this dinner date?

It's not a date. It's a dinner meeting.

And Elizabeth's incredible savvy with
this sort of thing.

Look at the open house invitation.

Wow. That looks great. We have tons of
engagement already.

It's very kind of her to help us with
our little school. I just hope it'll

us the publicity we need to stay open
next year.

Me too.

Thank you so much again for babysitting.
Of course. Well, the good news is I'm

now 99 % sure Ruby is not the ghost of a
Victorian girl.

She has not been able to stop talking
about you.

I also brought her two empty cardboard
boxes.

Oh, she is going to love that.

Oh, here, give me your phone.

I'll go ahead and put Jamie's contact
information in case of an emergency.

And then I'll make sure that he has
yours, too.

New lipstick shade?

Maybe. Why?

It's just you've been meeting with Jamie
a lot lately.

More than you usually meet with clients.

No, no, I haven't.

Okay, he's just helping me with Ruby,
and I'm helping him save his school.

Okay, I have to go.

Yep.

Hi. Hi.

You look nice.

Nice?

All right, all right. It's just because
I'm used to seeing you flattered in

paint.

First I'm photogenic, now I'm nice.

Wow. I didn't know any better. I'd say
that this was a date.

I just wanted to take a nice spot for a
dinner meeting.

All right.

So how's Ruby doing?

Really good, actually. She absolutely
loves when Franny babysits. She brings

empty boxes.

Catnip for children.

Ah, are you two enjoying a date night
away from the kid?

Yes, we are.

Yes, it's so rare for us.

Excuse me.

I'd actually love a glass of white wine.

Oh, yeah. I'll take one, too, please. Of
course. Thank you.

Look at you playing on.

So, are you originally from here?

I realize I don't know that much about
you other than your Wall Street past

life. I was born and raised in Chicago,
and I have four younger siblings.

Four?

There's a full house.

Wow.

So you're the oldest. Things are
starting to make sense.

When I was younger, my parents passed
away in a car accident, and I had to

up. I am so sorry to hear that.

Wow, so you must have really raised
them.

Well, we needed money, so I needed to
make money. And that came in the form of

financial degree and a career in
consulting.

Makes sense.

And here you go.

Thank you so much. Thank you. You're
very welcome.

Well, cheers to your career change.

So then I got my master's in teaching
and leveraged a few of my contacts to

the butterfly primary.

Still, it seems like such an unexpected
shift.

My mother, she was a kindergarten
teacher.

A fantastic one.

What a beautiful way to honor her
memory.

Exactly.

I still can't believe that you have so
many siblings.

Do you want a big family yourself?

I'm open to having kids.

With the right person, of course.

How about you?

Yes, of course.

Open as well, as long as it's with the
right person.

Of course, I would have to find a way to
really balance raising a family and my

career.

I love it so much that I would never
want to have to let it go completely.

Nor should you have to.

That's the thing.

Cat and Ruby's dad?

They really disagreed about that, and
that's actually what split them up.

Well, Kat did an amazing job with Ruby.

She's a great kid.

She really is.

I know my career shift has made me busy
for the past couple years, but you've

reminded me that family is what set me
on this path to begin with.

Family is the most important thing.

No matter what form it takes.

Um, this is excellent.

Very good.

It's so good.

You need to take a spin before you go
home.

Oh. You heard her.

Mom and Dad need to go for a spin.

Oh, Mom and Dad too, do they?

Thank you.

Okay.

I'm really not much of a dancer.

Thank you so much for helping out with
Ruby.

It really means a lot.

Anytime.

I just realized we completely forgot to
talk about the open house.

Because we're having such a great time.

Well, and not...

Don't worry.

I've got a few calls ahead of me this
weekend. I'm going to get the butterfly

primary in some great Chicago
publication.

Thank you.

Sounds great.

I appreciate everything you're doing.

Yeah, I mean, it's just a part of our
deal, right?

Yep.

Right. Good deal.

Thank you. Oh, hello.

Hey, Ruby, what do you think about us
watching a movie?

I already watched them all.

Are you sure about that?

Yes.

Okay.

Oh, careful.

Hi.

What are you doing? What are you doing
here?

I've come to surprise Ruby for a fun
Sunday activity.

Jamie!

Well, how did you know? We were just
bouncing off the walls in here.

I mean, with the open house and the
jewelry campaign, I feel like you could

some help.

Reinforcements are definitely needed.
It's like she took Sherville.

Okay. Uh, I'm going to show you a little
trick.

Okay. Hey, Ruby.

I'm going to play a quick game with
Matthew, okay?

Yay!

Three, two, one.

Free. How is it that easy? Okay,

I could have used that 24 hours ago. You
have been withholding information.

Hey, Ruby, we're going to go on an
adventure, okay?

Okay.

Wow. Why did you come with us?

I can't. Too much work. Come on.

You could take a little bit of a break.

Yeah, just a little one.

Three, two, one, freeze. Who knew?

Welcome to the farmer's market.

Do they have fruit snacks here?

I don't think so, but look at all these
beautiful fresh fruits and vegetables.

What do you say we find something for
Grandpa to eat?

You have a lovely family.

Oh, thank you.

Oh, look at that, Ruby. There's
coloring. Why don't you go check that

those kids?

Wow, so many beautiful choices.

I know.

So, do you cook?

Um, every now and again.

Mostly healthy stuff.

Nothing kid -friendly, according...

to Ruby.

So what's this whole work campaign
that's keeping you so busy?

It's a jewelry campaign.

My client, Paloma, the founder, she said
publicly that

the best accessory any woman can wear is
an engagement ring.

That is exactly the reaction that all of
the internet has.

What about you?

Do you think the best accessory is an
engagement ring?

Many women, I think, dream about their
wedding, about being married, but I

never did.

What did you dream about?

The great unknown.

I guess I always did dream about falling
in love with someone.

But never the whole, oh, let's get
married and have a white picket fence

kids thing.

No?

I just never want to be boxed in.

Oh, your job is a pretty big box.

Yes, but it's always changing.

There's just something so liberating
about not being tied down.

Well, maybe it doesn't have to be one or
the other.

Maybe your life can look however you
want with whomever you want.

Yeah, maybe.

But maybe it can.

Do we get to make the dough? You do get
to make the dough.

And maybe this way Aunt Lizzie can get
some work done.

Okay. Why don't you go wash your hands?

I think she has completely forgotten
about pizza night with her mom, so thank

you. Of course.

I love spending time with her.

Yeah.

So do I.

I'm so sorry. I was supposed to finish
with email.

Okay.

It never ends.

Aha!

Ready to shape your dough?

I want to make a dinosaur pizza.

Oh, that's creative.

I'm sure we can do that.

And now it's time for Aunt Lizzie's
pizza.

What shape should hers be?

A rectangle.

Oh, a rectangle.

Like a phone.

Because she loves her phone.

Well, hey, at least we now know that you
know your shape.

Maybe that's my sign that I should help
the pizza chef here. No.

That's my job.

Oh.

Okay.

Well then, what is my job?

Using the pepperoni.

Got it.

I'm the pepperoni master.

Pepperoni it is?

How many pepperonis?

Maybe four.

Maybe four? Okay.

Should we use the pepperoni for eyes?

Yeah. Yeah?

What else should go on it?

Tomatoes for the cheese.

Peppers.

Peppers. Good call.

Cheese for the nose.

And for the skin, you can put salt.

Okay, let's do it.

And the kitchen is spotless.

You are amazing.

You are amazing at the dishes.

The dishes?

Yeah, and getting our cheese off pans.

That's the first time I've received that
compliment.

Yeah, you're quite good at that.

And cleaning counters.

My counters are...

Very clean. Mm -hmm.

I do think you're amazing.

I had a lot of things.

Aunt Lizzie!

Can I have a drink of water?

Uh, yes.

I should probably... Yeah.

I'm gonna head home.

Good night.

Good night.

to get a hold of these days.

I'm sending an email too at some point.

I want to know if you'd reconsider
coming back to the firm.

It'd be a new role and there'd be a
generous compensation packet worth your

while. I want you to really consider it
and I'll be in touch.

What do you think, Mom?

Something on your mind?

Um, sorry.

How could you tell?

You just gave that table four bottles of
glue.

Ah, well, there is actually.

My old Wall Street boss messaged me last
night and wanted me to consider coming

back to the firm.

I didn't realize you were considering a
career pivot.

I wasn't, but I was hoping that the
fortunes of the school would change.

But?

But maybe I'm being too unrealistic
because there's a probability we might

be able to reopen next year.

Are you having doubts?

Maybe running a school isn't my forte.

Maybe someone else should be in charge
and I could just run the business side.

That could be one path you could take.

Part of me feels like this school was a
noble experiment, but it failed, so

maybe it'd be better if the doors...

We're closed.

I'm sure every single kindergartner
we've taught would say no to that.

I think you should follow your gut and
your heart.

A lot of the choices that I make will
affect a lot of people, and it's a

scary.

If you're worried about disappointing
anybody, don't be.

I knew your mother very well.

She would be so incredibly proud of the
school you've built, no matter what

happens.

Thank you.

I appreciate that.

Wow, look at the cocoon our friend
built.

Well, I believe that's a sign.

Perhaps we're all in a transition
period.

Sure feels like it.

And I think that from uncertainty,
something beautiful can and will emerge.

That's how life works.

I hope so.

I know so.

Come on, the kids are coming.

Let's go.

Even your pep talk?

Uh, Elizabeth?

Yes. We have a small problem.

Okay, what's up? It looks like some of
the influencers who sent advanced

of the diamond rings to believe they're
fake.

Fake?

Look at that.

They're fake. They're calling them lab
-grown.

That's ridiculous, right? I mean, why
would they care if they're grown in a

anyways? Well, apparently Palomas always
use real diamonds. She's known for it.

Lab girls aren't worth as much.

Who wants to buy something that's not
real? So we just, we need to set the

record straight.

I know, there's a ton of videos flying
around online using the word fraud and

getting a lot of views.

Sentiment around Palomas, not great.

We'll fix this.

Oh, and there's one more thing.

What is it?

Palomas in the conference room.

Paloma, I had no idea you were here.
Thank you for coming in.

What is this?

I came straight from bowling.

So what's going on?

It seems they are calling me a fraud
now. Paloma, we really think that this

just a simple case of rumors. We have a
really good handle on which influencers

are involved.

The only thing I am wondering about is
why would they think they are lab grown

at all? Because they are.

We were trying to cut costs, but we
didn't mislead anyone.

I see. It was technically an omission.

We will fix this.

I promise.

This is the sort of due diligence that
should have been done at the beginning

the campaign.

I agree.

You know, we're supposed to be doing
damage control, not causing the damage.

Yes, and I should have caught it.

I accept full responsibility.

This isn't like you. You seem to be
distracted lately.

Which is unusual for my star publicist.

I apologize for that, truly.

But I can assure you, I am... I am laser
-focused on Paloma's campaign.

It is my number one priority. There's an
expectation here at the Bridge Shore

Group that a partner embodies certain
qualities.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

Yes.

And I don't want to do anything that
puts my promotion in jeopardy.

Well, good.

Now fix this, please.

Paloma scares me.

I should have vetted Paloma and the
jewelry campaign way more from the very

beginning. We did the best we could.

And I should have been right there in
the middle, too, monitoring every step

the way. But I was just, I was so short
-sighted. This was my fault. I should

have caught this earlier.

Franny, no. Okay, you, you are amazing.

This is my account and ultimately my
responsibility.

Maybe I have been spending too much time
with Jamie.

But you've been helping him so much.

Yeah, but if it's putting all of our
hard work in jeopardy, it's putting our

client at risk, I clearly, I have my
priorities out of line.

You've been doing a great job managing
all your priorities.

I thought so too, but I think today is a
sign that I am, I am

way off track.

Things gotta change.

Hey. I was hoping we could finish the
diploma tonight.

Final grades are in, and everyone passed
kindergarten.

Looks like they'll be able to graduate
tomorrow.

I'm so sorry. I have a lot of work to
do, so I can't.

Do you want me to hang with Ruby for
you?

Uh, no.

I have it all under control, and I'm
going to have to put Room Mom on the

burner for the time being.

And I actually won't be able to make the
open house tomorrow.

But I promise everything is all set up,
and it should all go smoothly.

So no worries.

It'll be great.

Hey, are you okay? What happened?

Everything's great.

And I am not one to back out of a
commitment.

But this is just the way that things
have to be right now.

You understand.

Well, okay.

Good luck.

You too. Yeah. And thank you for
understanding. And please tell everyone

congratulations on my behalf.

I sure will.

Goodbye, Jamie.

Good night. Night.

go and get some ice cream oh yes i would
like to get some ice cream very much

okay come on um what's wrong uh

it's aunt um aunt lizzie i i have

to tell you something what is it um so
some very

important things came up at work and
unfortunately

I am no longer going to be able to make
your butterfly graduation tomorrow.

I'm so sorry.

It's okay.

Mommy has to be a superwoman at work
sometimes, too.

Jamie, tell me you're calling me to say
you can start Monday.

Well, that's it.

Time to clean up?

Mm -hmm.

I'll be right back.

Hey, Ruby.

How you feeling?

Yeah, you too.

I know that we have to raise Grandpa now
that she's Butterfly, but I'm going to

miss him.

I'm going to miss him too.

But it doesn't matter where he ends up,
if it's here in Chicago or in

San Francisco, I'm sure he'll be very
happy.

And he's a butterfly now.

Just like you.

You know, I think the open house went
very well today.

We met a lot of nice parents today who
seemed to be very impressed with our

little school.

I think so.

Is everything okay with our room, Mom?

Hey, can I come in?

It was so good.

I love your hat.

You know what?

Why don't you two talk?

Right back. Save the cupcakes for me,
okay?

Hey.

It looks great.

I'm glad you came.

Yeah, I was just putting out some fires
at work.

You seem really dedicated to that
jewelry line.

Yeah, I am.

Doesn't seem to leave you much time
for...

You?

Not at the moment, no.

Is it worth it?

For jewelry?

Well, it's for my promotion, and it's
all right to love something that you're

good at.

Do you love it?

Yes.

People find meaning in all kinds of
ways, and for some people it's just

but for me it's also my job.

I see.

I thought... What?

I realized I had the wrong impression.

Okay, I'm confused. I thought you of all
people, the founder of a passion

project school, would understand this.

I've been honest about who I am and what
my priorities are this whole time.

Yeah.

Yeah, you're right.

Listen, maybe when Ruby's back with her
mom and I finish up with this campaign,

we can revisit things.

Well, the open house did drum up some
interest, so thank you. Yeah.

But I don't think it'll be enough for me
to reopen again next year.

Oh, really?

I guess this is a sign that I am no good
at running a school.

Come on, that's a little hasty, don't
you think?

I'm stepping down.

I'm accepting a job offer from my old
boss in New York.

Wow.

Okay.

Congratulations.

And good luck to you.

You too.

I'm going to grab Ruby.

Yeah. And maybe a cupcake.

Got everything, bud?

Are you sad, Aunt Ruby?

No, no.

I just can't believe my little Ruby
graduated kindergarten.

It feels like it was just last week I
was holding you in the hospital after

were born.

I'm a little nervous.

Well, it is okay to feel that.

We should get some ice cream.

We should get some ice cream.

We'll stop on the way home.

Hello. All right.

Oh, no.

I wanted to come and tell you in person
I know you're... with Ruby for a bit

longer. It's okay. Feel free.

What's going on?

We have a new problem.

Okay, talk to me. The rings are the
wrong color.

The wrong color?

Some of the rings are using brown
diamonds instead of clear ones.

Brown diamonds?

How did this even happen?

I think it's a problem at the lab.

Okay, okay.

Yeah, some of our customers are not
going to be thrilled about this, but you

know what?

We're going to do what we do best. We're
going to find a way to spin this. I

promise.

Quickly. Aunt Lizzie, is it time to go
to the park like you promised?

Uh, yes. Yes, we are going to go to the
park as soon as you put your shoes on.

She can play on the, uh, jungle gym
while we brainstorm.

Oh, I can't do it.

Oh, I can help you with that.

Nope. I, I am, I'm not supposed to do
that.

You're not supposed to help her tie her
shoes?

I'm supposed to let her fail.

Let her fail. Let me fail?

Let you fail in a loving way.

It's good for kids to fail. It's good
for kids to make mistakes.

It's just something that Jamie told me.

Oh.

Look, I did it.

Lookie there. Looks like it worked.

Well, I'm glad the classroom plants are
going through a good home. Oh, they're

getting a new plant, Mom. They will love
them very much.

Hey, Camaro.

I want to say thank you for all your
help these past few years.

It was an absolute joy to be a part of
this school. However brief, it was a

beautiful time.

It was.

And you did an incredible job.

You helped many kids and...

It was a gift, and I learned a lot.

I think I did, too.

You know, I never did get a chance to
thank our room mom for all her help.

Graduation was busy.

I don't think she thought anything of
it.

I was thinking of sending her a thank
you note.

I believe it's never too late to let
someone know they're appreciated.

Aunt Lizzie?

Yeah, bud? What's up?

Daddy doesn't feel good.

She doesn't?

She's sick.

Um, but she looks okay to me.

Um, you know, why don't you come sit
down for a sec?

So what about you? Are you feeling sick?

No.

Do you miss your mom?

Yeah.

Well, don't you worry.

You're going to see her again soon.

But in the meantime, how about we read
some books?

Yeah? Does that sound fun?

Yeah. Okay.

And I promise, Aunt Lizzie, He's going
to fix some things tomorrow.

Edward, do you have a minute?

Well, actually... No worries. I know
you're busy. I will be brief. My sister

just started a new job in San Francisco,
so I am parenting my niece Ruby for a

couple more days.

That's her.

Given these circumstances, I would like
to request... Some accommodations from

the firm.

Accommodations. I would really
appreciate some support and flexibility

can both be there for the campaign and
there for Ruby.

Well, of course.

Lola, hi.

I'm so sorry. I thought that you were in
a meeting.

Nonsense. She has far too much on her
plate, doesn't she, Edward?

Darling, I raised two children while I
built my business from the ground up.

I wish I had more support, especially
after my husband and I separated.

So, dear, what do you need?

Yes, I mean, Elizabeth, you mean a lot
to us.

We're happy to help.

What can I do?

Let's get lost, so they can't define.

The bulk of our adventure awaits.

Hey, Ruby, I can't find her anywhere.

Oh, I was thinking we should call in.
Just stay home, go honey, come on.

Carol, hi. Hey.

Sorry for popping by unexpectedly.

I won't be long. Harry's waiting for me
outside.

Actually, thank you for interrupting my
New York apartment hunt.

It's been giving me a headache.

Well, I have something to give you
before you leave.

All the parents and I collaborated. We
put this together for you.

The kids each wrote something they
learned from you.

Well, is there two kinds of you?

All of you? Well, everyone wrote
something except for Charlie. He just

draw you a picture of a dragon.

Perfect.

You made quite an impression on a lot of
lives.

Well, I'm going to get going, but I
expect to hear from you as soon as

settled in New York. I need regular
updates.

Yes, ma 'am.

I think you're a born teacher.

And not everybody is.

Remember that.

Thank you.

So much.

So we will subtly spin the line of lab
-grown diamonds.

as your line's new commitment to going
green.

We'll emphasize all the ways your
company is being environmentally

ideally trigger a modern overhaul for
the brand.

As for the product that's already gone
out, I have a bit of a wild pitch for

you. Let's hear it.

I advise we do nothing.

Nothing. Let the diamonds go out and
don't immediately...

address the problem.

I've bought into your vision so far, but
I can't quite wrap my head around this.

And I can understand that. But I... I
recently learned from a friend that

sometimes it's best to just let things
play out.

Not have too heavy of a hand.

Paloma, I have a good gut feeling about
this.

This seems very strange.

But I am intrigued.

Let's try it.

Hey, Lizzie!

Hi! I got your text. What's up?

Well, someone left someone very
important on my plate.

Wow, thank you. We would have had to
turn the plane around.

Actually, Donna wants to stay and live
here with you.

She does, huh?

Wow. Well, you know what this means.

What? You're going to have to come and
visit her a lot.

Did you have fun these past two weeks,
Ruby?

I got to use the shredder!

A shrugger.

Yeah, it's a long story.

Well,

thank you, both of you, for all your
help.

Well, I refuse to see this as goodbye,
so I will see it as see you in a couple

months. Yes, I like that a lot better.

There's some emergency food snacks in
there for you. Yay!

All right, well, we have a plane to
catch.

Can you travel?

Let me know when you land.

Love you. Love you.

Love you both. Love you.

Um, so when do you head out?

I should be on a plane in a couple of
days.

Should? If everything goes according to
plan.

And what about this place?

It will be on the market by the end of
next week.

Wow, so you're really letting it go.

I didn't want to, but sometimes life...

It pulls you in different directions.

Right.

Well, I should really get back to work.

Goodbye,

Jamie.

Goodbye, Elizabeth.

We have a call with a new startup
client.

Then I need you to approve the ad sent
by the marketing people for the Summer

Music Festival and the Chicago
Architecture Association is wondering if

reschedule the dinner for tomorrow. Is
that okay?

Yes. My evenings are wide open now.

Strangely. How are you feeling now that
Kat and Ruby flew home?

It's so funny, but I actually... I miss
her chaos.

Makes sense. You two spent so much time
together.

Yeah.

Okay, she insists on bringing those
cardboard boxes back in her suitcase.

Oh my gosh, she's the best.

She really is.

So, have you seen Jamie since the school
year ended?

Just briefly.

I mean, we didn't exactly part on the
best of terms.

Sorry. No, I think we just had...

Different expectations about our
commitments to our careers.

You handled everything the best you
could.

You know, he actually accepted a new job
in New York.

What? I know.

I couldn't believe it either.

Well, I guess you made quite an impact
on him.

Good or bad.

Maybe it's not so black and white.

Oh, it's time for our meeting with
Edward.

Me too.

I'm really not sure what to think.

Well, whatever it is, we can fix it.

I've been told chocolate diamonds are
trending on social media.

For reasons I don't understand,
everyone's decided they're rare and

Well, they are that.

Seems your hands -off approach was the
right choice.

That's excellent. And how is Paloma
doing?

Static.

Very satisfied with everything.

Which brings me to my next item.

The board is in agreement.

The firm wants to welcome you as
partner.

Thank you so much. It is truly, it is an
honor.

And Franny, I am delighted to make you
our newest account manager.

Thank you.

Thank you so much. You're welcome.

I get proud.

Go celebrate. Yes.

Thank you.

I knew it. I knew it was going to be
training. What did I tell you?

Sometimes the problem, the solution is
right in there.

So, it seems like we've come to an
agreement over compensation.

I think we have.

Everything sounds great.

I'll most likely need you to do some
travel, which we'll just have you spend.

No problem. I can travel.

And you'll find the firm's strategy's
changed a bit.

And so will your role.

Oh, I was under the impression that I'd
be doing the same work that I did last

time.

We've got a brand new strategy.

The education sector.

Education. There are huge profits to be
made from investments in schools and

colleges.

Profits like you wouldn't believe.

Where do I come in?

We need your experience to help us cut
costs in the businesses we invest in.

You mean the schools that you invest in?

Business, schools, it's all the same to
us.

I'm not sure I view it the same way.

Schools need to operate like a business.

And that's where we make our money.

So what do you think?

I'm just coming back from the other side
of the equation here, and it's a huge

180.

That's exactly why I got in touch with
you to come back on board.

Education is an untapped industry.

With your unique experience, you can
help us find new profit angles.

I have a wise friend who taught me some
important lessons recently.

And one of them is, if you can...

You have to find meaning in your work.

You have to feel right.

So, does this opportunity feel right?

Today, we're talking about chocolate
diamonds.

Look at these. It's amazing, isn't it?

Congratulations to us.

You know what's strange?

The fact that Edward and Paloma are now
besties, they're hanging out tonight.

Wait, what?

Bowling. Overheard it. Bowling?

Okay, I could not in a million years
imagine Paloma in bowling shoes.

So weird.

So, what's so strange?

I don't know, it just, it feels like
something is missing.

How so?

I'm so proud.

Of what we just accomplished for Paloma.
But this work, it's just, it's not

as... It's not as fulfilling as it used
to be.

Does that make sense?

Maybe because you grew up.

You did spend a lot of time in a
kindergarten.

Yes, I did, huh?

Oh, did you see this?

I came for you.

What?

Pretty. I know.

It's... It's from Jamie.

Congratulating me on my promotion.

And he wants... He wants to meet me.

That's great.

How...

What does he even know about my
promotion?

I may have texted him the news.

He's gonna fire me so soon after my
promotion.

You did put his number in my phone for
emergencies when I babysat, remember?

I did do that, didn't I?

And this was an emergency.

Cheers.

Freddie, you have helped me realize that
there is one

more campaign I need to finish before I
can celebrate.

And we have to act quickly.

Can we make a few calls?

Are you kidding?

Let's do it.

Yes.

Hi. Hi.

Thought this would be fitting?

Listen, I need to get this out. I know
that you've already accepted the job in

New York.

But I... I have secured Angel and
Bestick for the butterfly primary.

My client, Paloma, she's so interested
in your unique perspectives at the

school.

And that, coupled with a bit of Ruby's
personal testimony, she is so excited to

invest. Wow, that's amazing.

It's unbelievable.

And I know you already made up your
mind, but I just thought if there's any

chance, I wouldn't tell you.

Well, I've had some second thoughts
about my return to corporate life.

Yeah? Yeah.

I turned down the job offer.

Okay. It goes exactly against everything
I believe.

I want to do what makes me happy, and
that's run a school.

And if it's not the butterfly primary,
then it'll be something else.

And most importantly, I want to be with
you.

Um... Well, I did some market research
of my own these past few weeks. You

And what did you learn?

I learned that I want to be with you,
too.

And that that is the start of an
adventure, not the end of the

story.

I really want to kiss you.

When I'm feeling really nervous.

Well, thank you for sharing with me that
beautiful nervous.

You know, it's okay to feel nervous
sometimes.

But the good news is, I think I can fix

that.

I know I'm at my best in your arms.

I can't shake you.

This crazy love haunts every room.

I try to hide it in my bed.

All the covers on my head.

But you won't let me stay there.

You won't let me stay there.

Turn it into good.

I know there's something good here in
your arms.

Yeah, you turn it into good.

I know there's something good here in
your arms.
