- I think we'll be stronger
together.

- I'm gonna be a dad.

- Liza Miller is 42 years old.

- It was really hard
lying to someone I care about.

- Maybe you did
what you had to do.

- Guess who got the money,
honey?

- We're still interested
in Millennial--

not with Ms. Peters
as publisher.

- Take this new publicity
as a business opportunity.

- I'm going out on my own.

- I'll get you a seat
on the board.

- I am so happy for you.

- Liza Miller,
will you marry me?

- Oh, my God.

- Arrivederci, bitches!

- Congratulations!

- Have the best honeymoon ever!

Ah, thank God,

- Where are they going?
- Grand tour of Italy.

- Ooh.

she can eat all the pasta

- Aw.
- Want to dance?

- I do. Come on.
- Yes.

[people cheering]

[sparklers crackling]

- Hmm.

Well, I, uh--
I think I got my answer.

- The answer is, I love you.

But technically,
you're not even divorced yet.

- Yeah, that's true.

- And I also think
you may be a little drunk.

- Uh, slightly buzzed, yeah.

And you're avoiding
the question.

- It is the most beautiful
question I have ever heard.

But I have a daughter
I need to talk to.

And you have to speak
to your girls as well.

We don't have to rush.
I'm not going anywhere.

- Fine.

You know how I feel.

Sometimes I can be impatient

when I know what I want.

But I understand.

[chuckles]

Um, so you can, uh--

you can consider the proposal
officially withdrawn.

- Wait, are you un-asking me
to marry you?

- Yup.

So that when you're ready,

you can pop the question.

- [laughs]

- Provided that I'm still
on the market.

- Okay.
