Ohh, why so droopy,
my fuchsia goddess?

Drink up!

I have breaking
plant news.

Tell me you're not still
working on Susan's garden.

Perfection takes time.

Okay, I am all for giving
your boyfriend's mom

the future-mother-in-law
discount,

but that has to be reflected

in the time
you're spending on it.

Yes, yes, my beautiful
pregnant budgeting queen.

Okay, so where are we with
the Kellers' indoor herb garden?

I'm almost done.

And the Williams' cacti wall?

Didn't you say you had
breaking plant news?

- Come on.
- What?

- Where are we going?
- You'll see.

Okay, we're on
my favorite street,

with the best bakery
in the world.

Is the surprise
morning cupcakes?

Even better.

II met a friend
in prenatal yoga class

who's on the City Council.

The council wants to do
a redesign of Pearl Street!

Come on.

Wh...

So they want
to revitalize this space

with more green areas,

but they haven't found the right
landscape architects yet, and...

I pitched Blue Spruce.
They want to meet with us!

Us? To redesign Pearl Street?

Okay, I thought you'd be doing
that high-pitched happy scream

you do when I send you
cute plant pics.

- I have to sit down.
- Well...

It's just...

Aren't we already
pretty overloaded with projects?

Small projects.

Evie, this could be
our big break.

I know, but...

are we really ready
for something this massive?

You literally went to school

to handle
something this massive.

In practice!

In reality,
I've only ever designed gardens

that could fit
into a closet.

Sizable walk-in closets.

Evie. It's not every day
somebody hands you your dream.

I have to go.

- Where are you going?
- Nursery.

I need plantspiration.

Evie...

Hey, what do you think?

Let's see.

Definitely an invertebrate
from the Cretaceous Era.

Nice find.

How's the catalogue going?

I didn't think
I'd moved to Florida

to work behind a computer,

but someone's gotta do it,
I guess.

John puts all the newbies
on research.

Even his
second-in-command?

Don't worry, all right?

Even his
second-in-command?

in no time.

Speaking of
where I belong,

I need to run.

Told the girls
I would take them to the nursery

to buy some plants.

I'm trying to get them
excited about being here.

Ooh, are they homesick?

It's been two weeks,

Zoey still hasn't unpacked yet.

Give her time.

Costa Del Mar
can charm anyone, even Zoey.

Yeah. You just wait.

Your daughter's going
to walk all over you.

That's probably so.

I'm not sure the garden
store is going to want you to do

a pop-it
over their plants.

It's a pop-shove-it, Dad.

Oh, okay.

Where's your sister?

Zoey's not coming.

What?

Wait right here while
I talk to your sister, okay?

Zoey?

I know it's hard, honey.

But try and have some fun,
Zoey-bear, okay?

And if you get
really lonely,

I'll be on
the first flight out.

I think I have everything
under control here, Gigi.

We'll see you
for Thanksgiving, all right?

I told Aria
I'm not coming.

Either you come
or none of us go.

I, for one, am excited
about the rosemary,

so we can try that pasta
you've been talking about.

You want rosemary pasta?

I know I'm asking a lot

moving you halfway across
the country to pursue a job.

This move has to work
for you girls too.

Mom would have wanted you
to have your dream job.

I'll try to like it here.

Thank you.

Come on.

Let's get you your--
your dream herb garden.

Oh, you are a total stunner!

Mm.

Ooh!

This is why I love you,
all of you.

No pressure,
no judgment.

No surprise
business meetings.

Just...

Oh, I hear you,
my green goddess!

Uh, I was just about
to buy that.

I'm sure there's
some more in the back.

No, but that plant and I
were having a moment.

I was waiting for her
to welcome me.

What--what's that?

Ah! Well, this rosemary
and I just had a talk,

and it said it really
wants to come home with me.

Hm.

You see, we're
new to town,

Hm.

in her herb garden.

Well, this beautiful
creature is English thyme,

and while it is
a good substitute for rosemary,

if your daughter wants rosemary,

you should buy her rosemary.

Hey, Mel, will you put
this on my account, please?

- Of course, Evie.
- Thank you!

Where are you going
with my plant?

My plant and I are going home.

Your rosemary's gonna be
over there, with...

except I see your girls are
better at identifying plants

than you are.

Lemme see.

This is a good selection.

You know, you should plant
some Greek oregano

around the exterior.

The deer can't stand it.

That's the coolest ring ever.

Aww, thank you!

It's a mood ring,

so it changes color
based on your emotion.

Those rings are heat-sensitive.

They change with
your body temperatures.

- Dad has a PhD.
- That's right.

Grandma Gigi says
he's a know-it-all.

I just want you girls to know

that a ring
can't predict your moods.

Well, sure it can.

In fact, I think this one
was made just for you.

Look at that.

Already changing color.

That means you're
in desperate need

of ice cream sundaes.

Extra whipped cream.

And this ring is broken,

Extra whipped cream.

Well, my motto is,
"Dessert any time you need it."

Sometimes,
even for breakfast.

Please tell me
you at least let them have

chocolate chip pancakes.

Of course!

I'm not a total monster.

Well, good luck
with your garden.

What about your ring?

Oh, that's okay.
You can keep it.

Consider it my
"welcome to Costa" gift.

Besides,
I have a ton more at home.

You can never have
too many mood rings.

Or too much dessert
for breakfast, apparently.

Exactly.

If you need anything,

just call me at Blue Spruce.

Ask for Evie.

I'll teach you
how to spell your names

in fairy roses.

She's so cool.

Now the ring is green.

That means you're content.

Hey, we have to pay for these.

It even has a little bench

like your dad and I
used to sit on.

- It's adorable.
- I love it.

Oh!

There's my beautiful girlfriend!

Hi! Mark, I--

I didn't know
you were stopping by.

Well, Mom said
she wanted to check

the progress
on her garden,

so I thought
I'd tag along

to wish you a happy
anniversary in person.

Thank you.

Hey, what are we doing tonight?

Pepperoni pizza?

With mushrooms!

Evie, it's absolutely stunning.

Thank you so much.

Of course it is.
Evie made it.

Well, I've got to get
to my next appointment.

Yes we do. All right.

- Have fun tonight.
- Thank you.

Oh!

Ooh!

We're all set to meet
with the City Council

later today!

Yay!

Can I really do this?

You should use the tablet

to find some recipes
for the rosemary.

Oh yeah! Okay.

Girls, I have a little
work to finish up.

Don't start without me, okay?

- Okay!
- Okay!

Hey, what are you doing?

What? Evie said to reach out.

So we printed out
the pictures of Pearl Street.

Maybe something
will inspire us.

If we want to
win this bid,

we're gonna need
a fresh idea.

Hm.

I got another spam request
on Photogram.

An "AriaSkates" wants help
with a garden redesign.

They spelled "garden" wrong.

Whoa.

Wait.

That's Ryan's address.

Oh. That's Will's best friend,

the one I told you about.

What are you doing?

I just replied
that you're on your way.

What?

Their backyard is a
disaster, but it has potential.

It's perfect
for that Evie magic.

- So I'm on my way?
- Mm-hm.

I'm on my way.

See you soon.

- Good seeing you.
- Good seeing you too.

Hello. I'm Evie Atwell,

Blue Spruce Design.

Okay, you can do this.

Pearl Street.

- What are you doing here?
- What are you doing here?

I...got a message on
Photogram about a garden redesign?

My business partner
told me that this was

her husband's friend's place.

You work with Claire?

And you're Will's friend?

Yeah, look, I'm sorry
you came all the way out here.

Don't be sorry, I...

Can I see the yard?

Claire said it is just amaz--

I have to--

Speaking of, what is
that incredible smell?

Wait, what...

Scones.

Ah, rosemary!

We used the rosemary
from the nursery.

Do you want one?

Little bite.

Mm!

Lemme see.

Purple!

It means daring.

I like your style, hm.

Garden!

We're going to be talking
about Photogram later.

Do you think he even knows
what that is?

Claire said this place
was gorgeous,

but this is spectacular.

Are you sure we're talking
about the same backyard?

You have to see what
could be, not what is.

Oh!

What's this,

some kind of yoga move
I've never seen?

To understand
the needs of a garden,

you first must taste,
smell, feel, and hear the land.

Yeah, I'm going to be
late for work as it is.

I'll be quick.

You can repave this
pathway with antique brick

and then line it with, um, bougainvillea,

and, uh, Mexican petunias, which,

which give
that beautiful blend

of fuchsia and purple
that hummingbirds love.

Under the windows,
we'll plant sunflowers,

which bloom yellow, obviously,

and then we'll
line the property

with red and orange wildflowers.

The whole yard'll just be
an explosion of color.

Slow down. We haven't even
finished unpacking yet.

This part of the yard will
be bathed in sunlight,

so it's perfect
for an herb garden.

We have an herb garden.

Look, I'm... I'm sorry
Aria misled you,

but we can't take on
another big change.

I-I have this new job,

but we can't take on
another big change.

I can't take on some
massive landscape project.

You're right.

This backyard would be
a large-scale project.

It's better to wait
until you're ready.

Besides, at Blue Spruce,
we prefer small spaces

where we can focus
on the details

and unify the overall
aesthetic of the project.

Right, well, this won't
work for either of us, then.

Clearly,
this wasn't meant to be.

It's a beautiful space, though.

Yeah.

Do try and take care of her.

Sure.

Good things come
to those who wait.

Once we land Pearl Street,

we'll have our choice
of gardens in Costa Del Mar.

Don't be mad.

I'm not mad,

Don't be mad.

I don't mean
to message people.

Well, you said you wanted
to make us happy.

And this is
what'll make us happy.

A garden?

- Yes!
- Yes!

We just have a lot
going on right now.

I don't want to put
any extra pressure on us.

I'll think about it.

Get in here.

What is Photogram, anyway?

Hey.

I believe in you, okay?

You're talented,
you've got this.

Yeah.

Sorry, guys, I'm running late.

- Hi.
- Hey!

Evie, this is Lizzy.

- Hi.
- Hey!

redesigning for green areas.

- Hi.
- Hi.

So tell me what you guys
have been doing at Blue Spruce.

Well, um, this portfolio
shows some of the urban spaces

that we've been
working on.

By urban spaces, you mean...

Uh, mainly smaller areas
in homes and businesses.

Our clients want to feel
surrounded by nature,

even when they're
surrounded by walls.

So you've never actually
worked on a project of this size?

Well, no,
but I did go to grad school

for large-scale design,
and you'll see

some examples of those
designs in the portfolio.

Look. I'd love nothing
more than to give you this job,

but the board,
they'll never approve a proposal

without a proof
of concept.

My advice?

Get some bigger projects
on the books, pronto.

Sorry, guys,
but I've gotta run.

Bye!

- Thank you.
- Bye.

Hey. It was just
a little setback.

Okay, I'll reach out
to some old clients

and see if they need
a garden makeover.

It'll have to be pro bono,
but I'll make it work.

I know.

Oh! What about the Burgesses?

Ryan didn't really say no,
did he?

No, but he gave me
roughly a million reasons

why he didn't even have
time to talk to me.

- A million, huh?
- Okay, fine.

Two or three,
but he's not interested.

Okay, well, he might be
our swiftest ticket

to Pearl Street.

We're brilliant.

Our work is brilliant,

and we shouldn't have
to beg someone

to want to work with us!

Just think about it.

Okay, I will reach out
to the old clients,

but be open-minded.

I am always open-minded.

I have to go and get ready
for my dinner with Mark.

Oh, yes, that's right,
it's your anniversary!

Yeah. We're gonna have pizza.

Pizza?

Yeah, it's--you know,

it's what we had
on our first date.

It's our thing.

Who knows?

It's our thing.

Okay.

So I went over
to this beautiful house today--

I mean, Claire made me go, but...

- Thank you.
- Thank you!

Oh, perfect.

So anyway, this property
is all raw potential,

and soil so rich,
you can smell it!

But the owner
totally blew me off.

Aww.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

I know I get
too wrapped up in work.

- It's okay.
- Happy anniversary.

Happy anniversary.

Actually, there is
something I wanna talk about.

Evie...

Evie...

- Mark, that's wonderful!
- In Tokyo!

Um... but Tokyo's in Japan.

What do you think
about moving with me?

To Tokyo, Japan?

You want me to move to Japan?

It's only for a year,

You want me to move to Japan?

It'd be an adventure
for both of us.

Think of all the gardens
you'll get to go visit.

What about Blue Spruce?

I mean,
I can't just leave Claire.

You wouldn't be leaving,

just taking a little hiatus.

Hm.

I thought you'd
be excited.

No, I...I am, um...

it just...

I have some news too.

We might get to redesign
Pearl Street.

So I...just with the timing,

a move to Japan
might not be the best--

Hey. I know.

This was a huge surprise.

We don't have to decide
anything tonight.

Let's see what happens
with Pearl Street

and we can go from there.

Hey.

Sorry. I didn't sleep well
last night.

Mark is moving to Japan
for a year,

and he asked me
to go with him.

That's amazing!

What I wouldn't give
to have a spicy tuna roll.

I haven't decided
if I'm going yet.

I wanna be the best
landscape architect

in Costa Del Mar.

I can't do that
from 7,432 miles away.

I looked it up.

Okay, it is just a year.

You would have
a wildly romantic time,

and then, when you're
home, we can pick it up.

But what about Pearl Street?

Look, I made a list of all
the public spaces in town

that could use a redesign.

Sleep-deprived Evie
is a go-getter.

I know.

Okay, these ideas
are great, but...

But what?

But while we wait
for one of them to pan out,

maybe we can try again
with Ryan.

I'm not gonna beg for a job!

I'm not asking you to grovel,

I just want you
to try one more time?

For me.

Fine.

For me.

Can you do it
in the next 27 minutes

before Ryan heads to the site?

Oh, shoot.

You're supposed
to head to Susan's

for the final
walk-through.

Oh. Well, I'll head to Susan's.

After Ryan's.

- Thank you!
- Yes!

Hm.

What is she doing here?

I was practicing my landing.

Yeah?

Yeah. It involved
jumping over my tool box.

Did you forget something?

No, I was actually hoping
we could try again.

I won't take up
much of your time.

Dad?

You promised to really
think about a garden for us.

I'm yours
for the next ten minutes.

Okay. I'd really like
to show you

what the designs look like
in the space.

After you.

Ahh! This space!

I know, ten minutes, okay.

I thought that we could
give the illusion

that we're in
a nature preserve.

But we would use planters
so it would be contained.

Smaller in scale.

It's... lovely,

but it's still a bit much
for me.

Uh, we could create a pathway

through the layout
that's already there,

and--and then line it
with something whimsical.

Do I look like a guy
who's into whimsical to you?

Actually, don't answer that.

It's just...

your girls are so bold.

I thought maybe
they'd want the garden

to be a reflection
of them.

The garden means
everything to them,

but I make the decisions here.

Right.

Look. Why don't
we do this?

I have your number,

we'll get in touch
in a few months

when we're settled in.

Sure.

- Okay.
- It's just...

I thought it might be
a good activity for the girls

to help them fall in love
with their new home.

Yeah, it will be,
in a few months.

I gotta get to work.

Dad, you promised
to give Evie a chance.

I did, didn't I?

- Yes!
- Yes!

Okay. I like
the nature preserve,

but maybe you'd lose
some of the whimsy

and try to have your mood
ring channel minimalism

when you're thinking
about our garden.

I'll do my best.

Great.

- Late again?
- I'm sorry.

I just had to finish up
something with the girls.

- The girls.
- Yeah.

Come on, Ryan.

You can do better.

Hey, man.

Don't sweat it.

He's just having
a bad day.

I was going
to make it here on time

and then Evie showed up.

She did the
surprise thing?

I told Claire
you don't like surprises,

especially from someone
who's so free-spirited

and you're so--

Before you finish that sentence,

may I remind you
that I'm a man who puts avocados

on his sandwiches?

It doesn't get
more free-spirited.

I'll tell you what,

the girls are excited
about this garden

and Evie.

See, Evie's approach is unique,

but she's the best.

See, Evie's approach is unique,

I--I like that
she's imaginative,

I just don't have time
for a unique approach.

But I'll try.

Now see, that's
world's best dad, man.

I'm not so sure
about that.

So far, I've moved them
to a place they hate

and I spend all day at a job

where all I do
is handle paperwork.

Hm. Your life is in ruins.

It's a
paleontologist joke.

It's also a dad joke.

Dad jokes.

Evie, it is just stunning.

When you told me your
vision, I was skeptical.

But you see things
for how they could be, Evie.

I do hope you can do
the same with Mark.

I know this seems
really scary right now,

but just think
how this experience

will bring you close together.

Just give the move some thought.

Of course.

- Hi, Dad.
- Hi, Dad!

What's all this?

This looks delicious.

You have a cherry on top
and everything.

I could eat it
right off the page.

Grow a friend.

What's all this?

We wanted to send Evie
some ideas

so she'll come up
with something you like.

I'm glad you're excited
about this.

How about I go get changed

and we come up
with ideas for Evie

over my famous mac and cheese?

Is it famous
if it comes from a box?

Shh! Don't give away my secret.

So, as a paleontologist,

aren't you supposed to be
wearing a leather jacket

and swinging a whip?

That's Indiana
Jones, Evie,

and he's an archaeologist.

- I'm kidding.
- Not really.

Where are Aria and Zoey?

They're with their sitter.

I just came from a dig
and I have exactly 33 minutes.

What happens if we go
to 34 minutes?

All right, fine.

Tony, is this it?

Yeah, that's it, Evie.

She's got a good energy.

I can tell it's lived
a good life.

What's all this?

Okay, so, don't be mad,

but Aria messaged me
about building her a skatepark

in the backyard.

Whoa, whoa, back up. A what?

Oh, no, no,
we're definitely not doing that,

but it got me thinking.

What if we created
a custom quarter pipe for her?

I mean,
she obviously loves skating,

and this way you'll be
able to keep an eye on her

instead of when she goes
to the skatepark.

- I gotta go.
- Oh...

Hey.

Hey, Ryan, wait.

I left work
for this, Evie.

You could have texted me
and let me know

this was your plan.

I would have told you no,

and now we've wasted
both of our time.

It's not a waste of time

if it gets creative ideas flowing.

I'm sorry.

I know it's too much.

I get excited.

I just...

I want this to be perfect
for your girls.

I know you do.

And I do too.

I'm just really stressed
at work.

My boss is...

Anyway, I shouldn't have
taken it out on you.

I'm just under a lot
of pressure right now.

Okay, well, then let's
take some of the pressure off.

There's an arboretum nearby.

We can go for a stroll
and you can tell me

if anything speaks to you.

Make it quick.

Okay, so,
you're having a dinner party

and you get to invite
three guests.

Which plants are you
inviting to dinner?

So I'm serving water
at this dinner?

Mm-hm, plus C02 and light.

It's a full meal.

Okay, I guess I would want
that one for a guest.ight.

Why are you making that face?

It's just...

Don't you think your girls
would want something

a little more vibrant?

Evie Atwell,
are you calling me boring?

No.

Just...

I don't think
that that plant

is interesting enough
for your girls.

Okay, that one.

What's wrong
with my choice now?

Okay, well, that tree
takes forever to grow.

I think Aria and Zoey
would want something fully formed now.

Okay, well,
your mood ring is blue.

Maybe it can lead us
to a plant.

I don't pick plants
based on my mood ring.

Well, time is up, so... What?

But we haven't settled
on the design though.

Evie, I wish I had more
time to devote to this garden,

I really do,

Evie, I wish I had more
time to devote to this garden,

and we didn't find
a single plant.

- But--
- I'm sorry,

but if this is
the process,

it just doesn't work
with my schedule.

Please, send me a bill
for your time.

Sure.

- I'm sorry.
- Yeah.

Fine... creative process.

creative
process to your bones.

Went that well, huh?

Whatever you're
envisioning, multiply it by 10.

Look at you doing math.

He implied that my process
is a waste of time.

With his eyes...

His serious,
perfect beard.

He does have a perfect
beard, doesn't he?

A seriously perfect beard.

I need a baby belly rub.

You're gonna be a very
good aunt to this girl,

whether it's when she's
born or you're back from Japan.

I should be excited.

I know I should
be excited.

But you're not.

I love Mark, but...

I love Mark, but...

and I did not like
the answer

the universe sent.

Maybe the universe is
telling you to make a change.

Just not move halfway
across the world.

So, how's the busywork goin'?

So, a little bit exciting.

Honestly, I'm distracted.

I went to buy plants
with Evie,

and she thought
everything I liked was boring.

I mean, come on.

Me, boring?

Yeah, 'cause there's
absolutely nothing boring about you.

Also I found the girls'
Photogram page,

and all the posts
were from back home.

The only picture
they had from here

is one of Evie's
mood ring.

So they've made a friend.

That's a good
thing, right?

Aria and Zoey are finding
themselves in this new place.

Evie can help with that.

Look at you, not even a dad,

already giving out advice.

already giving out advice.

And I know you like
to control everything,

but maybe you consider
lettin' Evie take over the garden.

She may surprise you.

This would be the
adventure of your life.

You love adventures.

Adventure is your middle name.

Might never get
this chance again.

Well, this
looks delicious.

Arigato for the food.

Well, I wish I knew how to say
you're welcome in Japanese.

We can learn together.

Well, I wish I knew how to say
you're welcome in Japanese.

Next summer,
we can climb Mount "Fiji".

What's wrong?

I just don't know if I'm ready

to drop everything
and move to Japan.

I'm sorry, I know that's not
the answer you wanted to hear.

Evie, I want to go
on this adventure with you,

but only if
you're excited.

Look, I know we've been
a little stagnant lately.

I've been
working too much.

This could give us a
chance to reset, reconnect.

That does sound nice.

I just... I need a little more
time to think about it, okay?

Of course.

I want you to feel sure
about this.

I'll be here when you decide.

Here we go.

- Cheers.
- Mm.

I don't know
how to say cheers, but...

We'll learn.

We'll figure it out.

Claire's not here.

No, I brought you
these scones from Zoey.

Raspberry lemon.

Should give out mood rings
more often.

Tell her thank you for me.

I will.

That girl of yours can bake.

Don't I know it.

I was heading out, so...

Could I talk to you
for just a minute?

I really want to make
this work for the girls.

Despite what it may seem,

I'm not trying to create
more work for you.

You can't rush perfection.

Well, I guess
we're just two perfectionists

sinking into a tar pit.

That's a little
paleontology joke for you.

Look, I haven't seen the girls
this excited about anything

since moving here.

I'm a designer,
so if we do this,

you have to actually
let me design.

I promise,
the girls will love it.

But I do have to go, so...

I'll get that.

Well, thanks.

I want the girls
to embrace living here,

and you seem to be the
only one making them happy.

I'll even let you build
a very small skate ramp

- for Aria.
- Okay.

If you can really just go
with the flow.

I'm not going to meditate
in a field of wildflowers,

but I could let you plant some.

Florida has
gorgeous wildflowers.

We could plant a floral
fence around the yard,

and then when you are
ready to meditate,

you won't have to go far.

That idea I like.

Mm-hm.

Well, since
we're being honest...

Yes?

I need this job.

Our garden is yours to design.

I'll stay out of your way.

Is everything okay?

Yeah.

You comin'?

Now?

- Yeah.
- Right now?

No time like the present.

Okay.

A year from now,
I can see your backyard

just filled
with lush fruit trees.

Some apple.

Maybe some peach.

Just envisioning the future.

You know, fruit trees
actually grow really well

here in Florida.

How about lime?

Hm, a symbol of vitality
and imagination.

I love it.

Let's bring her home.

I'll grab a cart.

So, you ready to plant
some roots?

I hope the girls see it
that way.

I used to garden with my mom.

Gardening has a way
of bringing families together.

Hey, guess what, Zoey?

Your dad found you the key
lime tree of your dreams.

- You did?
- Mm-hm!

Think of all the pies
you'll be able to make.

Do you know what
goes great with pie?

Hot cider.

Maybe some day
I'll teach you

Hot cider.

Why don't you girls go
grab us some iced tea?

Okay!

Do you mind?

There...

Dad likes Evie.

Dad's just being nice.

He's never just nice.

Huh.

Maybe you're right.

Here. Right here.

- Are you sure?
- Yes, put her down.

Here.

Yeah, thank you.

Can I ask what
made you decide

to become
a landscape architect?

My mom.

She used to have
the most extraordinary garden.

And the entire house
used to be filled

with these bouquets
of wildflowers.

When she passed,

I guess...

keeping her garden alive
was a way to keep her alive too.

Dirt is never just dirt,
is it?

And you?

What made you want to
become a paleontologist?

I remember as a kid

the first time I saw
dinosaurs in a museum.

Mm-hm.

When I heard
it was someone's job

to dig up those bones,

I knew it was for me.

What I didn't realize
is how much time

it involved
behind a computer.

I like to get my hands dirty.

Well, I'm happy
to give you an excuse

to get your hands dirty.

Ah!

I know you didn't do that.

I just did, I did, yeah.

All right, okay.

All right.
Let's get this finished.

Then we're gonna go
take care of that excuse

you call an herb garden.

Hey, it's not so bad.

It's really bad.

Get out of here.

Hey, um...

Thank you
for all of your help today.

You're welcome.

You missed a spot.

Oh, wait.

Would you maybe want to go
on a field trip tomorrow?

Just make sure to wear
your hiking boots.

Never leave home
without 'em.

If I didn't know better,

to get me to workout more.

Well, it's always good
to sweat out toxins, but...

...that is what we came for.

- The flower?
- Yeah.

Let me guess,
the moonlight supercharged it.

Ryan, have you been
reading up on your crystals?

Seriously though,

Ryan, have you been
reading up on your crystals?

Well, that's like saying
a ceramic cast of a fossil

is the same as one you
find in the ground.

We use gypsum plaster to cast,

but I appreciate
your attention to detail.

A year from now, these flowers

will spread their seeds
across your entire garden.

You'll have an entire bed
of wildflowers

that are actually wild.

Plus something to remember
your first Florida hike.

I don't know.

I'm pretty sure
I won't forget this moment.

I'm grateful for you.

You think
I'm too touchy-feely, huh?

The flowers will flourish

because you're excellent
at your job,

not because you dictate
their fate.

You don't need
manifestations, Evie.

Come on.

You don't need
manifestations, Evie.

Well, do you think the
flowers can take a little detour?

Yeah, why? What's up?

Well, do you think the
flowers can take a little detour?

It won't take long.

Well, do you think the
flowers can take a little detour?

Okay, let's go.

Hey, where's Ryan?

Um, he's coming,
I just texted him.

He should be here
any minute now.

Guys, take 20.

Go cool off,
and I'll let you know.

What took so long?

I got here as fast as I could.

This is the tree that
we're eyeing for removal.

What? You can't remove
this tree!

It's older than we are,
it was here first.

John, this is Evie Atwell,
a local landscape architect.

Nice to meet you, Evie.

The bones
we might discover here

were here long before
this tree ever was.

Still, I'd like to avoid
killing it.

Would it be possible
to remove the tree

and transplant it elsewhere?

Yeah, maybe we can remove
the tree, excavate the area,

and then replant it.

No, I'm sorry,
but neither of those will work.

Why?

Well, when a tree is removed

from the environment
that it's made its home,

it loses 95%
of its root system.

It could take years
to recover,

if it ever does.

So, what do you suggest?

Well, it's only
about three feet wide,

so the roots go out maybe...

...10 feet?

Could you start digging
20 feet back

and work your way
in towards the tree?

The ground here is very soft,

so you have to go slowly
and gently

and then stop
when you hit the roots.

I think we can arrange that.

- Thank you, Evie.
- Sure.

If we do find something here,

we're gonna need
all hands on deck.

Let's talk about you
coming in more, all right?

You got it.

Did we make it back in time?

These little ones are wild
for a reason.

And they're strong.

If you give them
a little extra love,

they'll grow firm roots.

- Here you go.
- Thanks.

Thanks for your help
at the site, by the way.

You made a brilliant suggestion.

I am brilliant.

Can you pass me some dirt?

Sure.

Oh, thank you.

Here we go.

And... now I am in need
of some soap.

Do you mind if I wash up
before I head out?

No, of course.

Hey, Dad.

Can we do a movie night?

We're thinking something scary.

And I'll make rosemary popcorn!

I don't know
about a scary movie,

but who can say no
to rosemary popcorn?

Wait.

Can't you stay
for movie night?

Oh, I--I wouldn't want
to intrude on family time.

We'd love for you to stay.

Sure.

Sounds fun.

But only if that's
rosemary from our herb garden.

You know, this time next week,

I should be all done outside.

Um, and if it's okay with you,

I'd like to bring
the Pearl Street Committee by

to see the work in person.

Anything to help you
win the bid.

I would say as long
as we finish this week,

it's Blue
Spruce's to lose.

- Popcorn.
- Popcorn.

That smells amazing.

Yes!

Wanna try some?

Sure!

I mean if you're off--
Oh, look at that.

- Thanks.
- Thank you.

- Mm.
- Thank you.

- What?
- Great stuff.

Scoot over.

Okay.

What about a movie
with talking dogs?

- Mm-hm.
- Yeah, I feel

- very good about that.
- Mm-hm.

I need to take this.

Okay, so, scary movie?

- Yes.
- Yes.

If we start watching it,

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Okay.

Well, I finally get to do
what I was brought here for.

I get to supervise
the new dig site.

That's great news!

What does that mean?

It means I'll be at
the dig every day.

So, what, you'll be
at the dig every day?

Well, yeah, with the
promotion comes more hours,

I'm glad this dig matters
more to you than we do.

Zoey, wait.

Not cool, Dad.

I should probably go in there.

No, no, no,
just give 'em a little time.

Really messed that up.

They're just upset
because they won't get

to spend as much time
with you as they want.

It's sweet.

An offer like this
doesn't come around often.

I know.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

I used to be good at this.

Yeah?

So, talking dogs?

Is that really
your kind of movie?

We're gonna be stuck
with babysitters all summer.

Not if I can help it.

I know our plan can still work.

I'm manifesting it.

You're starting to sound
like Evie.

We're gonna need
backup support on this.

Hey, Gigi.

Is everything all right?

It must have been a mole
or some little critter

trying to burrow.

There are holes around
everything that we planted.

Can we fill it back in?

Well, I would, but I can't
seem to find my shovel.

You haven't seen it,
have you?

- No.
- I'll check my truck.

I thought I left it here,
but maybe I took it home.

Hey, shouldn't you
be getting to work?

Aria and Zoey both woke up

with mysterious colds
this morning.

And I'm a big softie,
so I called in.

I'll start tomorrow.

You're a good dad.

Thanks.

Honestly, I need
all the help I can get

finishing this project
in time, so...

I'm glad you're here.

Thanks.

Despite the girls'
sudden illness,

I can tell they're really
enjoying it more here.

I'm glad the garden's
making them feel more at home.

But it's more than that.

You have a way
of brightening everything up.

- Really?
- Yeah.

It's the Mary Poppins effect.

Before you came,
they were really down.

And now they have
this lightness to them.

The kind of freeness
that only kids can have.

That just gave me an idea
for Pearl Street.

This could totally be the thing
that could turn the bid around.

I can't believe it.

- You're welcome.
- Thank you!

Belatedly...

Sorry.

It's their grandma.

"Flight arrives at 2:00.

I can catch a ride
to the house

so you don't have
"to leave work early."0.

I think Aria and Zoey's
streak of messaging people

without my permission
is continuing.

Sounds like you have
your hands full.

- Yeah.
- I should go

work on
Pearl Street anyways.

See you tomorrow?

Yeah.

Why did Gigi just text me
flight info for tomorrow?

I asked her to come.

First you two hire Evie
without asking me,

now you're arranging
flights with Gigi behind my back?

And I think we know
who hid Evie's shovel.

This has to stop.

We just want to spend time
with you.

And you took this new job
without even talking to us.

I'm sorry I've made you
feel like this.

You two are the most
important parts of my life.

And, yes,
having Gigi here will help.

Duh.

But you have to quit
scheming like this.will help.

How 'bout this?

if you promise to let me know
when you need more from me.

- Deal?
- Deal.

Now, which one of you two

is going to make
the guest room for Gigi?

Hey!

All right, are you ready
for your surprise?

Yes.

Hey, Joe!

Thank you.

So another piece of wood
spoke to you?

Burgess Botanica.

The girls are going to flip.

Right?

You know, I still haven't
seen Pearl Street.

How would you like
to show me around?

You don't have to go to work?

Work can wait.

You don't have to go to work?

Wouldn't it be dreamy
to walk down here at night

and look up to see
a blanket of greenery

lit fully by the stars
and the moon?

Dang.

I, um, have been so inspired
by your girls and their garden

that I haven't really
given Pearl Street

the attention it deserves.

Honestly, I think
I'm a little scared

to get started.

I keep thinking about my mom
and what she would want to see.

I mean, this used to be
our place, you know?

I want it to be big
and bold like she was.

I'm afraid
it's not gonna be good enough.

Why is it the things
we want the most

are the scariest to us?

Maybe you could capture
the Pearl Street

she fell in love with.

I know it's not the same,

but with paleontology,

even though the bones
are thousands of years old,

the job is to make them
meaningful to us today.

I bet a lot of
other people

miss past generations
of Pearl Street.

And no one can turn the past
into the present like you, Evie.

Thank you.

I really needed
to hear that.

You're welcome.

Evie?

Hey.

unless it's for a cupcake run.

Hey, Mark,
it's good to see you.

This is my client.

Hey. Aren't you
the one with the--

Yeah, the big house
with the amazing backyard.

- Right. And the kids.
- The adorable kids.

They're as attracted to
her as she is to them.

Evie. Small world.

We were just talking about you.

I was telling her
about our move to Tokyo.

Tokyo?

Um, Mark's moving
abto Japan for a year, o.

and he invited me
to go with him.

I'll be moving there
by the end of the month,

and if Evie wants,
she can join me.

Hi, I am Susan.

Ryan.

Mark's mom.

Evie's client.

Ah, great.

Well, uh, look at the time,
I need to get back to work.

It was a pleasure
to meet you both.

I really am trying
to give you your space, Evie.

I didn't mean to run
into you like this.

No, no, I know, I know.

I'm sorry, it is lovely
to see you both, it really is.

I just...

I have to go.

Yep.

Hm, looks like there may be
a little more going on there.

We're taking some space
to figure out what we want.

Evie's doing that.

Just make sure
you are too.

Ryan, please.

I haven't said yes to moving.

There's a lot
here in Costa Del Mar

that I care about.

I know the girls
would be happy to hear that.

They care a lot
about you too.

Right.

Aria and Zoey.

See you tomorrow.

Yeah.

Lot of luggage
in the hall.

Oh, they told me this was
a surprise visit for you.

I'm so sorry,
I had no idea.

I can't tell you
how good it is to see you.

It's been a day.

Oh!

You're welcome here anytime.

- Oh.
- Where are they?

Oh, I told them
to go play.

- Oh.
- Where are they?

- I made lasagna.
- Ooh, sounds good.

And you won't even know
I'm here.

Mm-hmm.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Um, Ryan got me thinking
about the past

and what it means
for the future.

Pearl Street's
always been evolving,

so what if we used
some futuristic elements

to show the different eras
of Pearl Street?

We can use colors
to represent those eras,

white mariposa lilies for Pearl,
who the street's named after.

It's too much, isn't it?

No, the look you see
on my face is guilt.

I spent last night pricing
wallpapers for the nursery.

There is nothing more important

than your little
lady's sanctuary.

Well, look, come here.

Look at this.

Well, look, come here.

than an aerial garden
you walk through?

So if it wasn't reinforced
to support the foot traffic,

it would cut the budget drastically.

And we would literally be
looking up to the future.

I love it!

So, um...

I ran into Mark and Susan

when I was out with Ryan.

Drama!

It was just... really awkward!

Of course it was awkward, Evie.

You and Ryan have chemistry.

Look, just because
there was no spark with Mark,

he can still see
when they're flying.

You see what I did there?

Sparks flying?

Should've been a comedian.

I know.

Ryan's just a client.

He doesn't see
me that way.

He's a widower, Evie.

Remember how your dad was
after your mom?

Yeah, he didn't date for years.

Exactly.

Yeah, he didn't date for years.

The rules are you don't
date. It's too soon.

How about you let them
decide if it's too soon?

I gotta go.

Evie.

Evie, don't run away from this.

Hey, I've got
a dirty joke!

Hey. Oh, thanks.

Sorry, I would've
gotten it to you sooner,

but I was helping the
girls plant the herbs

you brought over.

No work this morning?

I promised them
one morning a week,

and I know you're trying
to get the garden finished

for the Pearl Street
committee, and I wanted to help.

I turned my phone off
and everything so I could focus.

Actually, I should probably...

Huh, six missed calls from Will.

What's happening?

A hole caved
in at the dig.

No one was hurt, but it
could set us back for weeks.

Here I am digging in the dirt

while my first big break
is literally collapsing.

You can't beat yourself up
about that.

You were just trying
to spend time with your girls.

I have to get back to the dig,

fix things
before they get worse.

Is there anything
I can do?

Just keep being you.

- Hi!
- Mm!

You must be Gigi.

And you must be Evie.

The girls can't stop
talking about you.

Sorry, lunch.

Um, do you want some hummus?

I make my own.
I added some tarragon.

I want Zoey to plant some
in her garden.

Oh, that's a nice idea.

Um, you know,
Aria and Zoey

seem to think
that you and Ryan--

I don't know what they said,

but I'm sure you know how
active their imaginations are.

Aria told me that fairies
visit the garden every night.

I hope she's right,
but you see what I mean.

Well, all I know is
I haven't seen them

this excited in...
oh, I can't remember when.

My daughter Rebecca
was the fun one.

At the end of the summer,
she and the girls would pick

the last of the
blueberries from the garden bushes

to make cobbler.

They were always exploring
the earth together.

That's a nice memory.

My mom passed
when I was about the girls' age.

Oh...

Can't imagine how hard
this has been on them,

being somewhere new
and starting over.

I can tell you've been
making the transition

a whole lot easier for them.

Thank you for that.

Glad to hear it.

And you've been making
things a lot easier for Ryan too.

Nice meeting you, Evie.

You too, Gigi.

Ah, très magnifique!

Are you learning French?

Will read something
about language acquisition

in the womb.

I think he's losing it.

I may be losing it too.

Well, now's not the time
to doubt yourself because...

...our pitch is set
for Wednesday.

We're gonna show the board
our designs

and then take them
to the Burgesses' gardens

for the big reveal.

Of course! I
can do this...

I hope.

Okay, what's making you
doubt yourself?

I'm distracted!

By Ryan, and the girls,
and Mark.

Okay.

Come on, talk to me.

Meeting these girls
has been life-changing,

and I know that I can have
a family with Mark,

but everything feels
like it's moving too fast,

or too slow, I don't know.

I don't know! And...

Okay.

First of all,

you already have a family.

Us.

My little girl's
gonna need her aunt.

"Auntie Evie" does have
a nice sound to it, doesn't it?

- Thank you.
- Yeah.

And second of all,

Mark's not the only option
of having a family.

Speaking of Mark,

Susan has a plant emergency.

I'll stop by before I head
to the Burgesses.

You're gonna get
your happily-ever-after, Eves.

I know it.

Okay.

Here we go.

She seems really sweet.

Maybe a little kooky.

She couldn't stop talking
about hummus.

She is her own person,
that's for sure.

Hmm.

You know, the girls love Evie,

and they think you do too.

It's okay to date someone new.

No one's talking about dating.

The girls aren't ready
for that, okay?

They aren't?

Or you aren't?

I gotta run.

Have a good day.

You too.

I don't know what I did wrong.

I watered it every three
days, just like you said.

I moved it from spot to spot

so it would have
a different light.

Sometimes it's nothing
that you did.

When a plant is uprooted,

it can be a shock
to their system.

It looks like this little
lady just didn't take.

Are you sure we're talking
about plants?

You know how much
I care about Mark.

But you don't
want to move?

Honestly, I don't know
what I want anymore.

Maybe it would be good
to get away.

You won't find a woman
in the whole world

who loves Mark more than I do,

but if you're running
from something here,

you'll still be running there.

You'll always be like
a daughter to me,

and I know you'll follow
your heart.

Don't cry, you're gonna
make that sad thyme very sad.

It's okay, sweetie.

Thank you.

It'll be okay.

Take it, take it back,
fill up the bucket for me.

Hey, man, John is not
happy. -What happened?

Look, we tried to put a bench in

to support the cave walls
at our other site,

but it did
the complete opposite.

You were supposed to
be here an hour ago.

I've been trying
to fix our problem.

- And?
- Nothing yet,

but I'll come up with something.

Okay, report back to me
here tonight at six

with your progress.

I need to be home for dinner

with my girls.

You do know that you're
lead paleontologist,

and that your whole
project's about to implode, right?

And you're worried about dinner?

Will, you got
lead on this.

John, please,
I'm on top of this.

Are you?

Look, we're all glad
to have you on the team,

but this is
time-sensitive.

It's not personal.

I just need somebody
who can be here

in case of an emergency.

John, please.

Hey, man, it's...

And Evie's helping Aria
with a new skate trick.

- I just landed a--
- What happened

to your knee?
Where's your knee pads?

She got a little scrape,
but she'll be okay--

Evie, thanks for today,
we'll see you tomorrow.

Can't Evie stay
for dinner?

Yeah, I want her
to try the cobbler.

She can try it tomorrow.

Is everything okay?

I mean, I know Aria's
knee's a bit of a shock,

but she'll be okay.

I got demoted today.

Oh no.

Ryan, that's awful.

My boss told me I wasn't
spending enough time at work,

and he's right.

My boss told me I wasn't
spending enough time at work,

and now I've wasted it all
on your stupid garden,

and this--I told you
I didn't want to be a part

of this whole
big redesign.

So it's my fault

that you're not keeping up
at work?

I'm sorry,
I didn't mean it that way--

You're the one
that wanted this for your girls.

You said that they're
the most important thing to you.

Of course they are,
which is exactly why I told you

I didn't want some big
skate park in my backyard.

Now look what's happened!

Aria will be fine!

She ran over to see you!

And--and I don't know why
you would even want to work

for someone who makes you
choose between work and family.

I put Aria
and this entire dig project

in jeopardy
because of you.

Stop!

Stop trying to make this
my fault!

I've done nothing but try
to be a friend to you

and your girls.

Well, I can handle it from here.

I can't believe he blamed
you for messing up this dig.

Well, I know that it's not
really me he's mad at.

He's just... overwhelmed.

Okay, that's hardly an excuse.

I shouldn't have said anything

about choosing
between work and family.

I don't know what it's
like to be a single parent.

My dad made it look so easy.

I should never have judged Ryan.

Okay, I'm--I'm confused

as why you're not furious
right now.

I am furious for you.

I'm just sad.

Spending so much time
with Ryan and the girls...

made me realize that...

I want to be a mom.

You will be a great mom,

and until then,
you will be a great aunt.

I just...

I don't know, maybe...

this is happening for a reason.

Maybe the universe is telling me

that I should just go
to Japan and...

let Ryan figure things out
with the girls without me.

Follow your heart, Evie.

You need to be honest
with yourself and what you want.

I do know what I want.

Ugh, and it's something I
should've done a long time ago.

- I love you.
- I love you.

Hey.

Hey.

Mark, I can't go to Japan.

I'm sorry.

I know that's not what
you wanted to hear.

But I think that if we're
being honest with each other,

our relationship has been
over for a while now.

Why are you smiling?

Because I feel the same way.

Really?

The truth is I'm terrified
of going to Tokyo on my own,

but that's why I know
I need to do it.

You're gonna have
the adventure of your life.

You know, it made me
realize that, um...

I need to find my own path too.

Just promise me you'll
send me some of that yummy matcha.

- Ooh...
- Come on,

and some pictures
of those beautiful gardens.

Of course.

Come here.

I'm excited to see Pearl Street.

Oh, we haven't won the bid yet.

Tomorrow we pitch.

Look at you,
burning the midnight oil.

Well, I'm gonna take off

and let you get back
to your thing.

Break a leg.

Thank you.

Ryan, I'm glad
you're here.

Now, look,
about yesterday,

I'm really sorry
about how everything went down.

It's just that I need
my lead paleontologist

to be living and breathing
this dig.

Well, if that's what you
need, I'm not your guy.

You know how much I respect you
and how excited I am to be here

as a part of your team.

I uprooted my family for this.

I came here to do
the best work of my life,

but filing paperwork isn't that.

So if it's between my
family and being on call 24/7,

I'll always choose my girls.

So if those
are my options,

I respectfully resign.

Nobody wants you to quit.

And... I'll give you
more family time

if you give me the best
that you can of you

when you're here.

Researching land records
isn't my best.

Fair enough,

but I need you here on time.

And when you're at work,
you're at work.

And when I'm home, I'm home.

I'll agree to that.

Do you realize
what you've just done?

I'm not sure, actually.

I think I blacked out
when I started talking.

That was awesome, Ryan.

As you can see,

the garden represents
the landscape of Costa del Mar

and the whimsy of childhood.

We would do the same
with Pearl Street

but also incorporate a canopy
that would represent a bridge

from the past to the future.

So many generations have
fallen in love with Pearl Street.

We would use different colors

to represent
those different eras,

and as you walked
under the canopy,

lit only by the stars
and the Moon,

you would be walking
through Pearl Street's history.

And the entire design
came in 27% under budget.

Your canopy design
for Pearl Street

is really impressive.

But we need to see
your work in person

before we can make
any decisions.

Oh, we thought the illustrations
would give an idea of the work.

The owner of that project

is no longer available
for a viewing.

I'm sorry, but there's no
way we can approve your design

if we don't see
a finished project first.

Okay, everyone, that concludes
our bid presentations for today.

I just...

I mean, it's my fault.

If I would've just done
things differently with Ryan...

we would've gotten it.

It's like you said,
everything happens for a reason.

Yeah.

You still miss him, huh?

Yeah.

Him and the girls.

Don't give up on them.

He made it very clear
that he does not want to see me.

Like you said, he's stressed.

It's not you he's mad at.

I know.

I just...

I can't go over there
and be rejected again.

This helps.

Uh-huh. Thank you.

You're home early.

You were right.

Family comes first.

Mm-hmm.

And you were right
about Evie too.

I was way too hard on her
for no reason.

So apologize.

Make it sound so easy.

- It is that easy.
- It is that easy.

Any ideas?

Oh, I think we have
an idea or two.

Yeah? Let's hear it.

A secret admirer?

"It's thyme
I told you how I feel."

What's that supposed to mean?

It's from Ryan.

When we first met, we
reached for the same pot of thyme

at the nursery.

Give this to me.

Go, go get your plant man, Evie!

Evie.

Is this your way of apologizing?

I'm so sorry.

I never should've taken
my work frustrations out on you.

No.

I shouldn't have gotten
so defensive.

I can't imagine
how hard it's been on you,

being so far from home

and raising the girls
on your own.

They mean the world to me,

but I couldn't have
done it without you.

Forgive me?

Already forgiven.

Don't look, they're all
staring out the window.

Hey, isn't
the Pearl Street committee

supposed to come by today?

We didn't get the bid.

I showed them the work
we've been doing here,

but they didn't feel
comfortable giving us the project

unless they saw the work
in person, so...

Well, there's still time
to invite them over.

There are some finishing
touches I'd need to do.

You have four eager helpers.

I'm sure we can finish
in no time.

Okay, let me go see
if I can convince them

to come see the space.

Okay, good luck.

Excuse me, Mr. Roberts, is it?

I'm looking for Lizzy's office.

Uh, Lizzy's in a meeting,
I'm afraid.

Okay, maybe you could help me.

I wanted to let you know that...

we are able to show you
the garden project

we've been working on,
and I think it will satisfy

your concerns
about our experience.

I'm sorry to disappoint,
Ms. Atwell,

but we've already
interviewed other design firms.

Mr. Roberts...

if I may.

I grew up going to Pearl Street.

My mom would take me
every weekend to see the art,

hear the street musicians,
eat ice cream.

Since she passed,

every time I go back, it's...

it's like I get to walk
with her again.

That's why I designed it
as a bridge

from the past to the future.

Costa del Mar
isn't Costa del Mar

without Pearl Street.

Anyway, I hope that whoever
you get to design the project

understands
its traditions.

Uh, Ms. Atwell.

The board does have an
opening tomorrow morning.

I suppose it couldn't hurt
to see what you come up with.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

I have a meeting.
I'll see you tomorrow.

All right, everyone,
the Pearl Street committee

is going to be here
in 24 hours.

Claire and Will,
you two are stringing lights.

Gigi, you're doing
beauty touch-ups on our tree.

Ryan, you're with me,
we're doing pavers.

Where are Aria and Zoey?

Okay, you girls, come
with me. We ready?

- Yes.
- Bring it in!

Let's do this, team, on three!

One, two, three!

All right, let's go,
come with me.

Grab these.

So, how's it going?

It looks like the soil
at the dig

isn't the only land
that's too soft.

Oh, I wouldn't say
it's too soft.

There's just more sand here.

Harder to get a grip on.

You know,
we had another site cave in.

You mentioned... benches?

What materials are you using?

Metal.

Have you tried natural materials

like... wood?

They do a better job
of compacting dirt,

and eventually, they'll
just erode into the soil.

We're using metal,
but that's genius.

Well, I don't know about genius,

but if you haven't noticed,
I am pretty good with the land.

Oh, I've noticed.

I should get back to the
dig and tell John about this.

Thanks so much.

Um, do you want me to wait
around till you get back?

No, no, no,
this is your project.

I trust you.

I can't wait to see
what you do with it.

The canopy, the garden,

it is beyond perfect.

Let's hope the Pearl
Street committee thinks so.

Get a good night's sleep, Eves.

- Big day tomorrow!
- Yeah.

Okay.

- All right.
- Yeah.

Perfect. Surprise.

Hi, thank you so much
for coming.

Um, we can't wait to show
you the garden in person.

I'm sure the work
speaks for itself.

Let's see what you've
come up with, Evie.

Everyone, please follow me
to the backyard.

And, uh, thank
you so much.

Thank you, thank you.

We've talked,

and after seeing your work here,

we've decided...

to give you
the Pearl Street redesign.

Magical, functional, energetic.

You guys have done really
something unique to this space.

Amazing.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you so much!

Thank you!

I would like to make a toast.

To family.

To the family
you were born with,

and to the unexpected
family you find while reaching

for a pot of thyme
at your local nursery.

I'll cheers to that.

To family!

Can I talk to you in private?

Okay, sure.

Oh, I know it's not
about this garden,

because this garden is perfect.

Your ring is blue.

Please tell me that's not
the important thing.

I'm crazy about you, Evie.

I have been for a while,
and I don't know what--
