Original subtitles

So you're clear on the plan, Mom?

Yes. Stay aloof, reveal nothing,

keep small talk to a minimum.

Good, and what about eye contact?

You two are being very dramatic.

I have dealt with salespeople before in my life.

Hm, I guess we'll just forget about the timeshare in Canada.

Yeah, or the 20-inch rims and booming sound system

- you said "came with" the Volvo. - Or adding avocado

every time the waiter offers.

Hey! I'm starting to really regret asking you guys to come with me.

You're nothing but dollar signs to these vultures.

They want to prey on your desperation

- and your vulnerability. - It's true.

I've got this. Come on.

I'd like to start by just telling you all

how truly and genuinely sorry I am for your loss.

Thanks, but we haven't lost him yet.

Oh. Well, then, let me say how lucky he is

to have such a loving and caring family that has made

the tough-but-wise decision to plan ahead.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Listen. We don't have all day,

so let's just bottom-line it.

What are we talking about here, Dale?

Uh, well, Maggie, picking an eternal resting spot

is one of the most difficult things you're ever gonna do.

And here at Birdsong Memorial, our focus

is simplifying this very difficult time

by anticipating any and all of your needs.

We handle the service, the casket, the plot,

the headstone, the flowers, the music, the programs,

the car service and so on.

What is "and so on"?

Are you gonna write our eulogies for us, too?

Well, actually, we can. If you take a look

at the Gold Deluxe Package, we have poets on hand.

There's some that are very good at haiku,

some dirty limericks, which certain families enjoy.

We've got painters, if you like a nice painting.

We could also do a nice sculpture of your loved one

in any repose you want. Make him standing,

make him sitting, make him laying down.

Sorry, what is the difference between the Gold Package

and the Gold Deluxe Package?

I'm sorry, Maggie. You know what?

I'm going a little too fast. I apologize.

Let's start with something simpler, okay?

Follow me.

As you can see, we have a wide selection

of caskets to choose from.

Everything from a simple pine box,

all the way up to museum-grade Carrara marble.

Two tons of eternal bliss.

So, Maggie, is there a particular model that's speaking to you?

David? We need to leave. Now.

Mom, I am right there with you.

Ooh, feel free to swear if you want.

I'm fine, honey.

Synced & corrected by QueenMaddie www.addic7ed.com

Morning.

Afternoon, actually.

Oh, wow, you're right.

You wouldn't believe the day I've had so far.

Which you clearly don't want to hear anything about.

So Leif, how was your morning? Any progress on the...

On the bake-off between the 4th floor and the 6th floor?

I think you could say...

- Yes. - Ohh. Got it.

[WHISPERS] You can catch me up to speed when we get off.

[ELEVATOR DINGS]

Shall we?

All right, uh, this is a terrible, terrible way

for you to find out, but Leif's actually on my team now.

What?

You can't steal our best programmer

in the middle of a bake-off.

I didn't steal him. Leif came to me.

It's true, both that I came to him,

and that I am the best programmer.

Are you really that mad at me?

That you would be willing to work with

your least favorite human being at Sprq Point?

Okay, first of all, Tobin's my least favorite,

and second, I just want my floor to win.

That's all.

- Sure. - [ELEVATOR DINGS]

Did you actually approve Leif joining Max on Floor 6?

Oh, that's a lot of heat for somebody coming in at 12:43 p.m.

Do these things work? I have taken

way more than 65 steps today.

- What about The Chirp? - What about it?

Leif put in for a transfer to go to the 6th floor,

and how could I say no after everything

that happened between us? I'm trying to be sensitive.

He shouldn't be someplace he doesn't want to be.

Okay, well, now we really have to take down

Ava and all of them.

Although...

it's incredibly bad timing for me because of

everything that's going on with my dad, and I'm not sure

I can fully be on my A game right now. Sorry.

Hey, don't worry about it. We'll figure out the 6th floor.

Take all the time you need.

Really?

Zoey... you've been there for me.

I'm gonna be there for you.

Don't smile at me. I don't want to look at

your sad, appreciative eyes. Get outta here.

You take a mindful breath. [RASPBERRY]

Can you believe this stuff?

Casket samples and interior swatches,

engraving fonts?

I had no idea there would be so many choices.

Where do I even begin?

Let's just take it one by one.

Do you want to start with the headstones?

No.

I don't know. I need your father for this.

He's the one that would know how to make all these decisions.

Well, do you want to ask him?

Hey, darling.

Do you need anything?

[VOICE BREAKING] He's not doing well.

He's not eating anything.

He's sleeping so much of the time, and half the time

I don't think he's even following what we're saying.

[TEAPOT WHISTLES]

Can I ask you something?

Why didn't you guys do this sooner?

[SIGHS] Well, if you mean,

when we were younger, probably because we thought

we had all the time in the world.

And I never could have imagined that it would happen this fast.

No one did. And now I've gotta go back

to that stupid place and pick out burial plots.

I can't even pick out the linen for the coffin liner.

I mean, it's just a lot. It's a lot, Zoey.

[GULPING]

Oh, my... hmm.

Would you like a straw?

Would that help you drink my wine even faster?

I know you're joking, but that would be great.

When was the last time you went funeral shopping?

Paper, plastic, or metal?

You know what? I'll get all three.

My mom is so overwhelmed

with all the things that she has to decide

and I'm just as freaked out as she is.

Which is why I've already planned my funeral

in elaborate detail. It is much easier

to make these decisions when you're thinking rationally.

Okay. Hit me. What do you got?

So, there's a dress code. Nothing teal, cerulean,

or anything with a high neckline.

There's gonna be a sit-down dinner

where dessert's gonna be served first.

And I have prerecorded five songs that I want played

because who else is gonna sing it better than me?

♪ Nobody ♪

- No. - [BLOWS BUBBLES]

Oh, and bring tissues,

because I absolutely demolish "Hallelujah."

- It almost sounds fun. - Oh, no, no, no, no.

It won't be. And if any of my "friends"

are caught not sobbing, they got-tah go.

Will you speak at my funeral?

'Cause I think you're officially now my best friend.

- Uh-oh. More Max drama? - Yeah. [SIGHS]

I think he pretty much wants nothing to do with me.

- [DOOR OPENING] - Is somebody coming over?

Oh, I gave Eddie a key.

What? He's hot. I'm weak.

You do the math.

- Hi, Zoey. - Hi.

Mo, guess who just got a fancy callback?

- The dog food commercial? - No, I didn't get that one.

But remember that Broadway review show?

On the cruise ship?

It pays more than anything that I've ever done,

and I'll actually be able to pay my bills after traveling

and seeing the world for eight months!

That's amazing. I hope you get it.

Oh, eight months. I don't think that I heard that detail.

Well, it was such a long shot.

- I must've kept it to myself. - Hmm.

But now that there's a chance,

maybe you can help me get ready for it?

Yeah. Sure. Happy to help.

[SIGHS] Great. I'm gonna go take a shower.

Mm-mm.

- Yes! - [APPLAUSE]

A completed AR interface for The Chirp.

What?! I would like to say that I'm surprised

we hit the next benchmark, but honestly,

I've come to expect this level of excellence.

It's actually kind of boring now.

Get on over here, Jeanine. Jeanine! Ready?

And... milk it, drink it, toss it, floss it,

sorry, my bad, Carrie Ann Moss it.

[LAUGHTER, APPLAUSE]

Hey, don't be jealous, K Lo. Jeanine put in the work,

but you will get your handshake, too.

Just give it time.

It's weirding you out me being up here, huh?

I could tell.

The only thing that's weird is that

you're actually an impressive manager.

- I meant that as a compliment. - No, I took it as such.

That might be the nicest thing you've ever said to me.

- [CHUCKLES] - Oh, what are you drawing?

We could probably hang this up

in the company creativity corner.

That is...

nothing.

Hey, don't worry, man.

Zoey told me about your "side project" with Joan.

Well, that "project" has been defunded.

So, is that why you wanted

to transfer up here? Because of her?

Just needed a change of scenery.

I can't believe these words

are coming out of my mouth right now, but...

do you want to get a beer with me after work?

Well, I hope your mom's all right.

Yeah, it's just a lot to handle, so,

we're doing everything we can to try to help

make things a little easier.

Hmm. Funny. That's one of our mottoes here at Birdsong.

Ah. Our memorial chapel, with seating for up to 300 people.

Now if you're looking for a multi-media tribute,

we have got a surround sound 4K projection system.

I mean, this picture is so good,

sometimes I sneak in here after hours

just to binge-watch "The Crown."

- Great show. - Oh, isn't it the best?

Okay, as, you know... As good as "The Crown" is,

I think what we'd like to do is just take a look at the grounds.

Man on a mission. I like your style, my friend.

Now, if you act today, I can get you a great deal

on a family plot with up to six places in it.

Dad, Mom, Zoey, me, Em...

Oh, I'm not going in the ground.

- [CHUCKLES] Well... - You know I'm claustrophobic.

I'm for sure getting cremated.

Baby, I thought we agreed to be together forever.

The contract states, "Till death do us part."

After that, I'm free to do my own thing again.

- No, I don't... - You know what?

I got the golf cart all heated up.

Let's continue this discussion en route, as the French say.

Colman, Foy, I can't pick my favorite queen.

You got us floats?

We just put down a deposit.

It's a very pretty area.

Super quiet, right near this lovely fountain.

- Well, that's not gonna work. - Why not?

[SIGHS] Well, Zoey, I love you, but I saw that fountain.

It's hideous. I don't want to look at that thing.

Great. In that case, Dale did show us

this other area that looked nice, Main Grove?

Uh-huh, that's right near the highway,

and your dad hates traffic.

Okay, um...

Do you want to look at pictures of other spots?

We're just trying to make this easier for you, Mom.

No, I know, and I really do appreciate that,

but this is not right. None of that is right.

Then I think this might be beyond my grasp.

Do you know anyone who's also gone through...

Nope, none of our friends have been through this yet.

I'm the first.

Wow, Mom, I didn't know you were such a pioneer.

Yeah, I am. I'm a true trailblazer.

Tell me what to do. How can I help?

[SIGHS] Well, you can start by getting your deposit back

'cause I'm not gonna be rushed into a decision like that.

Yep.

I'm sorry I'm late, or super early for tomorrow.

What day is it again?

Yo! I got you, Z-Money.

I just completed all the AR interface for The Chirp.

Check it before you wreck it.

This better be worth the trek, Tobin.

I gotta admit, I'm impressed. That was super fast.

Hmm? Told you I'm not just another pretty face.

Who's sitting at Max's desk?

What's up, ZZ Top?

We're a little light on manpower, so,

came back to where it all began, give the troops a hand.

I don't think I've ever seen you in a hoodie before.

Oh, yeah, well, this is made with cashmere yarn

spun by Benedictine nuns in Italy.

It cost more than all your stock options are worth,

but if you want to call it a hoodie, sure.

[LAUGHS] No way!

Hey! Toto. The dog, not the band.

- [ELECTRONIC CHIRP] - Stop Slacking with Leif.

We do not fraternize with the 6th floor.

I just want to know how Leif's day is going.

What he's doing, if he's making any new friends.

He isn't, by the way. I'm happy about it.

Well, can I just say thank you all for holding down the fort?

I will catch up as soon as I can. Promise.

- Oh. - I'm not focused.

We're falling behind,

and we have zero chance of winning this bake-off.

Wrong. I wanted to tell you about, um, my mom.

Um... my mom looked like Audrey Hepburn,

but talked like a college football coach.

She was very, very tough, a stay-at-home mom,

but, um, I think had it been a different time

and not Bismarck, North Dakota,

she could've ruled the world.

And when she got sick, I was working my way up

through the ranks at Google, trying as hard as I could

to get to the next level,

and... on the night she died,

um, I was preparing my presentation

for the Google smart pencils, you remember that?

Uh, barely?

Exactly. [SIGHS]

Work may seem like it's the most important thing,

but you will never get this time back,

so please stop apologizing.

- Oh, no. - What?

12 o'clock. 3 o'clock.

Oh, uh, hey, uh, don't look now,

but Zoey and Joan are right in front of us.

I just told you not to look.

Uh, what do we do?

Do we leave? I think we should leave.

I don't really want to see Joan right now.

No, we can't leave. That means they won.

You gotta be strong, man. Show her you're okay.

Right. Well, I don't know if I am okay,

and now we're walking towards them. Why are we walking towards them?

- Very good. - All righty.

- Hi. - Hello.

- How are things on the 6th floor? - Rock solid.

which is the standard classification

of hardness for minerals.

Okay.

So you and Leif are drinking buddies now?

We're just grabbing a beer. I like to connect

with all the members of my team on a personal level.

Ohh! That's heartwarming.

But Leif will stab you in the back the first chance he gets.

Well, thanks for the warning. Now Leif and I have

some serious work matters to attend to, right, Leif?

Hey, you. How goes it?

Well, I'm heading back to the cemetery

for my third time this week,

so I can't exactly say "awesome."

What's wrong with your doorknob?

It has seen too many keys.

Uh-oh. Something happened with Eddie?

Nothing happened.

Other than him possibly sailing the open seas

for eight months with a bunch of bored, wealthy tourists

and handsome chorus boys looking for

a little jalapeño in their cocktail,

so I decided to jump ship before he did.

Okay. Mo, I thought you really liked each other.

Why not try long-distance?

No, the only long-distance relationship

that I have is with my astrologer,

and if she doesn't stop charging me by the minute,

I'm-a have to break up with her, too.

- So have a good day. - [LOUD SLAM]

Really appreciate the refund, Dale.

My mom just needs a little bit of time.

Totally understand.

Time, after all, is our most precious commodity.

Now that said, there is a world in which

I can still get you that 6-plot special,

but you'll have to order today.

Oh, that's all right, Dale.

Oh, please! No one said there's a right way to grieve.

When Arthur died, I binge-watched

Nordic crime dramas and ate potato chips for a month.

Who gives a crap? If Barbara wants

to sell the houseboat and move to Japan,

I say, "Mwah! Sayonara, sister."

It's good to see you all again.

Hi. Sorry to interrupt.

I'm Zoey. I saw you yesterday during my tour with Dale.

Is he giving you the hard sell? Don't fall for it.

Check out his suits. The man's doing fine.

I'm Deb, by the way.

You seem to know a lot about this place.

[CHUCKLES] Damn straight.

I should get a commission for all the referrals I make.

When my husband passed, the place took good care of me.

So much so I recommended it to all my friends,

which keeps bringing me back. Now I'm like the weeds

that won't stop growing all over the Tower of Tranquility.

What are you doing?

Don't you want to win the bake-off?

No.

I want you to win the bake-off.

I'm not giving up on us, Joan, and I wanted to

show you with a big grand gesture.

It's a big stupid gesture that could get you fired by Ava.

I don't care. You're worth the risk.

I'm really not. Look...

You're brilliant, you're special.

And you're very sweet, but I let this go way too far.

It's unprofessional. I crossed a line

Zoey! This place, it's aces!

What a good call!

Oh, my gosh, that is my friend Deb.

- You have a friend named Deb? - Doesn't everyone?

Hey Deb, how you doing?

Well, pre-diabetic, but loving it.

Deb, this is my mom, Maggie.

- Hi. - Mom, this is my friend Deb.

- Hi. - Grab a seat.

My home is your home.

Take a seat, Mom.

What is happening right now?

Mom...

I wanted to be the one to help you through all this,

but you're losing the love of your life

and I don't have any experience with that.

But Deb does.

And I feel like she and I met for a reason,

so can you just please talk to her?

How good does this look?

So... who's ready to talk about death?

Mmm! Mmm!

You, um, must really like pie.

Well, no, I just have a really terrible time making decisions.

So do I, lately.

Hey, um, listen, I hope this doesn't hurt your feelings,

but opening up to a complete stranger,

that is just not exactly me.

Hey, no pressure here.

No judgment either.

Um... my kids, they say,

I have "analysis paralysis."

Oh, mine called it "compare and despair"

when I couldn't land on a cemetery.

Everything had to be exactly perfect for my Arthur.

But you want to hear something crazy?

I hardly remember the funeral.

All that choosing the perfect coffin

and the most "peaceful" flowers,

I stared at a random woman's shoes for 30 minutes

wondering where she bought them,

and also, why she was even there.

To this day, we don't know.

Well, the thing is, Deb, um...

I don't... I don't know how to do this...

because I've been with Mitch for... [CHUCKLES]

over 40 years.

Yeah. Well, we were 38.

Do you think Mitch really cares

what color peaceful flowers you pick?

Well, we are in the landscape design business,

so... [LAUGHS]

But I do get your point.

I think that, um, maybe what's happening

is that every single one of these decisions

just feels like it's moving me a little closer to, uh...

...to him being gone,

and to it all...

being real.

Well, it is. It's very real, babe.

And... and no one can take that burden from you.

It's just something you gotta wear, like a...

A giant cinderblock sweater.

Well, for what it's worth, you...

You seem to be wearing it very well.

Look, I... I... I...

I could give you a...

a big lecture on all the things you gain from loss...

Empathy, appreciation,

strength, resilience.

But we just gotta get you through this first.

The thing is I don't really want to get through it.

Here's the hard part, Miss Maggie.

I'm afraid it's not up to you.

It's an awful train that doesn't make stops,

and it's going, whether you want it to or not.

Still...

if it makes you feel any better...

I've been on it for quite a while now,

Can't do that now. The bake-off's poisoned.

So what do you want to do about it?

Maybe what Leif did is partially my fault.

I don't know that we've always

created the healthiest work environment,

so I thought, as the top two ranking women in this company,

what if we band together for once?

Show them a different way to get things done?

[SIGHS] Thanks for meeting me on your lunch break.

Note to self... make sure boyfriend's stuff

is out of the apartment before you change the locks.

Hey, you really think he's gonna get into it with you

in the middle of a big audition?

Child, we have no idea what he's capable of.

So I'm going to calmly give him back his dance bag,

and then have Eddie out of my life once and for all.

Hmm. Mm-mm.

[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]

Okay, that was pretty rough.

Um, I'm gonna need for you guys to be cleaner,

- more dynamic... - There he is.

... keep your heads up. Uh, these are yesses, please.

- So, next group. - [MUSIC BEGINS]

I'll be right back. Will you hold this?

Uh-huh.

[SIGHS]

There's your stuff.

Lose my number.

It doesn't have to go down like this, Mo.

But it does.

Mo.

I just heard you sing to Eddie,

and I hate to break it to you,

but it didn't sound like you were anywhere near ready

to break up with him.

Oh, but I am. Too many issues there.

On whose part?

I just think maybe you should work through the issues

together and try to push through them.

- Oh? Like you did with Max? - What? That's...

No, no, not having this conversation. Bye bye now.

- It's not the same thing. - Mm-mm.

What is happening right now?

I don't know, but I don't like it.

Hey, Zoey.

You have any idea what this is about?

No, but if Joan and Ava want

to talk to all of us together, it's either about The Chirp,

or it's the first sign of the apocalypse.

- Zoey. - Max.

JOAN: Could everyone please take a seat?

As most of you know over the years,

the 4th and 6th floor have had

their fair share of heated battles.

But these friendly competitions

have only served to divide us when the truth is,

we are one big team.

So rather than hiding information,

heightening security between floors,

occasionally slipping viruses into the other team's server...

I didn't know you did that.

But rather than doing any of those things,

we're gonna make some changes.

From now on, we're all in this together.

It's on a hill, overlooking the city.

And that is the sunset we'll see whenever we visit.

And I arranged to have a cedar tree planted

right next to him so there would always be

- shade for visitors. - It's amazing.

Mom, I didn't even know the cemetery would allow something like that.

Well, you've got to know the right people.

Did you happen to decide how many plots you're gonna get?

I started with two, but good ol' Dale

told me that we did have the option to extend

and acquire more at a profound discount.

- Hmm... - Okay, look.

I didn't realize my post-death plan

was gonna get you so upset,

but since I intend to love you in this life

and whatever comes next,

I'm more than happy if they sprinkle part of my body

over you and the rest of me in the bay.

How very sweet of you. You're really...

- You're am amazing wife. - I know.

Proud of you, Mom.

This is a really tough decision to make.

Yeah. It was time, sweetie.

You can only postpone the inevitable for so long.

[WHISPERS] Guess what?

I didn't even need to use an access card to get up here.

The times, they are a-changin'.

What can I help you with, Zoey?

Do you really want to do this?

I'm not doing anything. I'm just living my life.

I know, but here's the thing...

If Joan and Ava can make up...

Can you just hear me out for a minute, please?

Sure.

Thank you.

I have spent the last several days at a cemetery,

and it's made me acutely aware of time,

and how precious it all is.

A year ago...

I never would've imagined this is where I'd be right now,

which just goes to show anything can happen.

And if I had to die tomorrow, I couldn't stomach

being this far apart from you.

[SIGHS]

You know, I think I'm getting pretty good

at finding my strength lately, but it's very hard

to hold my ground when you play the both the Joan and Ava

and the cemetery cards?

Hey, moments like these,

sometimes you have to haul out the big guns.

Look, I'm not saying

I expect us to just go back to the way things were,

but maybe with time...

Somehow get back to...

Whatever we are.

Yeah.

Max. Can I see you?

A manager's work is never done.

But, uh...

I'll talk to you later.

Hey, why are you still here?

I take a great deal of pride in shutting this place down,

so beat it, already.

- I was waiting to talk to you. - [KEYS CLACKING]

Oh. Okay.

You let a fox into the henhouse.

What does that mean?

Turns out Leif has been sending our code downstairs all week.

That's why we had to end the bake-off.

Wait, are you... Uh, but, uh, no.

What, you thought you could handle him,

even though you knew he had a history of insubordination?

I can't let someone with that kind of judgment lead my team.

I'm sorry to inform you

that your services are no longer required at Sprq Point.

Wait.

- Are you saying that... - Yes, Maxwell.

You're fired.
