All language subtitles for All.American.S06E14.720p.HDTV.x264-SYNCOPY

Previously on "All American"...

I just got drafted
to the New York Bobcats.

Fourth quarter
with 14 seconds left

on the clock, and what
a Super Bowl it has been.

And just like that,

Spencer James has led

the New York Bobcats
to their first title!

The game's MVP,

rookie phenom Spencer James.

Only thing missing was you.
Will you marry me?

Yes!

Oh!

You're an hour early!

Hi.

- Oh.
- Oh.

Told the pilot it was
my wedding weekend.

- He stepped on the gas.
- Oh, yeah.

No, I'm sure you being
the reigning Super Bowl MVP

had nothing to do with people
clearing the way for you.

No, it was 5 months ago.
Ain't nobody checking for me.

Well, you will
always be my Mr. MVP.

Oh, I hope so,
soon-to-be Mrs. MVP.

Damn.

Better start pulling
my weight around here.

What? No, not at all.
Packing for the move

- is going well-ish.
- Heh heh!

The wedding, on the other hand,

I have under complete control.

- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah, you know I've been

planning for this wedding
since I was a little girl.

Yeah, you are
your brother's sister.

Only prettier.
Guess what?

- We got our first wedding gift.
- Oh, should we open it?

I don't know.
Is it bad luck?

It's a wedding gift
addressed to us.

It'd be bad luck not
to open it, right?

OK, I suppose
one gift won't hurt,

but you do it just in case.
Spencer, chuckling: OK.

Oh.

What is that?

Oh... yo.

These slap.

No, no, knives do not
slap in any form.

Who are these from?
These are bad luck.

- Says who?
- Baby, it's Wedding 101.

Oh, we should have waited till

after the wedding to open gifts.

They would still be knives, Liv.

- Oh!
- You've mentioned

bad luck twice
in the last few minutes.

- What is going on?
- It's just we have

one shot to get married
before you go back

to training camp,
and I'm not waiting

another year to marry you.

I don't want to wait either, OK?

That is why nothing
is getting in the way.

We are getting married
this weekend, OK?

- OK.
- Heh heh!

Stop tripping over bad omens.

Damn.

So weird.

You know, I don't even
believe that any...

Hey, husband,
you'll never believe who

- I just got off the phone with.
- Ghostbusters.

Well, they don't call you.
You call them.

- I give up. Who?
- Our realtor.

The house on Crescent Heights
countered our offer,

so... all we have
to do is accept.

OK, I... I can't believe
that we might

finally have our own house.
That's...

this feels right... right?

- I think so.
- Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I mean, we've... we've
been looking for months.

- Months.
- But, uh, we have

48 hours to decide, so we can

- let it marinate.
- Yeah. Marinate. Good.

Good, and, you know,
maybe, um...

by the time we move in,
I'll have a job.

Well, babe, you're the reason
you don't have a job.

It's not for lack of offers.

I know, but...
pivoting away

from the NFL was
the right move... right?

After watching
what you went through

with that concussion
in your final NCAA

championship game,
yeah, definitely was.

And it's really flattering

that everyone still
wanted you to draft,

but you're putting
your health first,

and I, for one,
thank you for that.

Well, getting that second chip

was almost worth the concussion.

- Jordan.
- Almost, almost.

Look at these flowers.

Finally.

- Is this for me?
- It was supposed to be

breakfast in bed, but look
at you. You are up.

Well, thank you.
I love it.

- OK, good. Well, you enjoy this.
- Mm-hmm.

I'm gonna go check in
with Preach on the joint

- bachelor/bachelorette party.
- OK... oh, Jordan,

- no strippers, OK?
- No.

Liv and Spencer would
kill us, and then

we'd have to come back
and haunt them.

- And who are they gonna call?
- Ghostbusters. Yeah.

- Enjoy your day.
- Bye.

Once again, I'm so sorry
about that mirror, Mrs. Baker.

Oh, it's all good.
Jordan cracked it,

like, a year ago.
It's a miracle

it stayed together this long.

See?
So the 7 years

of bad luck is
Jordan's, not ours.

I'm just happy luck is shining

- my way 'cause my baby's home.
- Aw.

- Ma?
- OK, I know you're not

- my baby anymore.
- No, I was just gonna

ask if you could pass
your baby those muffins.

- Ha ha!
- Wow, and here I thought

- you were home to marry me.
- I mean, these muffins

- put up a good fight.
- OK, I'll remember

to add muffins to
the rehearsal dinner menu.

Oh, speaking of which,
we wanted to talk

to you two about your
speeches for the dinner.

I'm almost done writing mine.

Oh, me, too.
It's just

a little nerve-racking.
I mean, I'm used

to speaking in front
of judges and juries,

but family is different.

- More judgmental.
- Yes, so,

um, I wanted to know if I can
run my idea by you guys.

Wait. Is it bad luck
to hear the speech before?

- You know what? Go ahead.
- OK.

So, mine's gonna be about

when Olivia took
her first steps.

You had a confidence
that made me realise

you knew exactly where
you were going in life,

and anyone that got in your way

better watch out.

But then Spencer got in your way

and stopped you in your tracks.

- Is that cheesy?
- No.

- OK.
- No, I love it, Mom.

It's beautiful, Laura.

I have a part in mine about

how Spencer's good
at catching passes

and dropping the ones
that weren't meant to be.

- I am a good catch.
- Yes, you are.

Ma, I don't drop passes.

See? Judgmental.

So, who wants to go first?

- I'll go last.
- Oh, actually,

I wanted to go last
'cause going last

leaves a more
memorable impression.

Which is why I
called dibs on it, so...

You can't call dibs
on when you get to speak.

- I think I just did.
- Don't we have that thing to do?

Yes, we do, actually.
Um,

just thinking about that.
We should... we're gonna

- leave you two...
- Yep, wedding stuff.

- To keep that up.
- Can I, like,

talk to you about it?

We're talking about it now.

OK, but you could have asked me.

Hey.

Hey... I was

today years old when I learned

what a place card is.

Well, they're pretty
insignificant, other than

for weddings and banquets.

Is this one of your new artists?

I'm looking for someone
to do a residency here.

Think upscale cocktails,
good music.

OK. Well, he would
be perfect for that.

- Mm-hmm.
- Would also be great

for the rehearsal dinner.

That is a brilliant idea.

I was gonna make
a playlist, and I don't

even have time to do that.

Tell me about it.
Life is busy.

Yeah. Thank you.

Jordan and I might be
buying a house,

which should be exciting.

But it's not?

What if we make
the wrong decision?

You and Jordan are so lucky

to have each other.
You're soulmates.

You got to stop worrying
about the what-ifs.

Take the house,
don't take the house.

As long as you have each
other, you will be fine.

Baby, is this good
for tonight or...

Oh, my God! Get out!

Spencer, turn around at least!

- Why didn't you knock?
- I did...

lightly.

Look, I promise you,
I didn't see anything.

I...

Heh!

You look stunning, by the way.

My God.

I don't even need to go
looking for bad omens.

They're practically
slapping me in the face.

This was unfortunate, but
it's not a bad omen, baby.

- And the mirror?
- An accident,

- and Jordan's fault.
- And the knives?

A gift.

Liv, I love you,

and I am going to marry you.

Nothing is changing that.

You could get married
in a bed sheet...

and I am still gonna think

you're the most beautiful
bride ever, OK?

OK?

Hey, what's up, young buck?

- There he is.
- Mm.

Ah, good to see you.
Um, just wanted to pop over,

make sure we're all good
for tonight.

I mean, you drove all the way
over here for something

that you could have texted?
Or maybe you want to talk

about that coaching job offer
that got floated your way,

except you keep dodging
it like Black folks

- and casserole.
- OK, first of all,

I love a good casserole.

Secondly, how do you
know about the offer?

Come on, man.
You know nothing escapes

- these halls in secret.
- Fine, but if you

don't mind, I would love
to keep it a secret,

since I haven't decided.

Coach Bobby has a magical gift

of turning a "no"
into a "maybe."

- That dude is hella charmin'.
- Mm-hmm.

I mean, he had me help him
fix a flat tire, and I was

already late for dinner.

But for what it's worth,
I think you'll be

- a dope QB coach.
- Hmm.

Those boys'll be lucky
to have you.

Now you are trying to turn
a "no" into a "maybe."

Yes, I am.
I mean, this place

could use another Baker, man.

We're all good
for tonight, right?

Look, when I say I'm

handling something, I got it.

Good, clean entertainment?

I'm an educator.
Would I like poles,

lemon pepper wings, all flats,

and Cardi B. dancing
at my bachelor party?

Hell yeah, but I heard

that G-rated, Sesame Street
couple loud and clear.

- OK, good.
- All right.

- Thank you. Mm. Take it easy.
- Yup.

Yo, man, I thought
this story was going

in a completely
different direction,

like you walked in
on her mid-bubble gut

- release or something.
- I'd actually prefer

that version.
At least that comes with

- an over-the-counter solution.
- So what?

You seen her in her dress, OK?
It was gonna happen

- in two days anyway.
- Man, tell that to Liv.

She thinks our whole
wedding's cursed.

Miss me with that.
We all know

the wedding omen was invented

by corporate America
to spend more money.

Again, could you
convince Liv of that?

No, I cannot.
That is your job, my G.

- She about to be your wife.
- You just

- called her my wife.
- I know. Feel good,

- don't it?
- It feels great. Heh!

And who is that? Liv,

calling to tell you she
came across a black cat?

Nah.

It's Coach Bobby
at South Crenshaw, asking

if I'm free to stop by.
I ain't got time for that.

You mean to tell me you
don't want to see what good

your secret donations have done?

Well, clearly, they're not
as secret as I'd like,

since you over here
talking about 'em.

But I guess it can't hurt
to stop by, see the new gym.

Yeah, and it also can't
hurt to let me

do my job
for your party tonight.

Damn. You could have
just said that.

Oh, come on. When have
you ever taken a hint?

Honey, staring at something

that hard won't solve
the problem.

Just can't believe Spencer
saw me in my dress.

We worked so hard to find it.

I know.

You must have tried on, what...

somewhere north of 60 dresses?

I don't know.

Maybe it's the universe's way

of saying I'm not meant
to get married in it.

How'd you know yours
was the one?

My mom told me that
when I put on the dress

that was meant to be,
all the other ones

would become a blur.
This one made all

the others a blur.
It's yours if you want it.

- Um...
- Or not.

I can tell you hate it.

No, it's sweet.
It's just, um,

it's very, um, uh...

Poofy. Yeah.

- Heh!
- Yeah.

Big shoulders and poofs were

what was in style then.

I think I need to find my blur,

as last-minute as it is.

Do you mind if I use
yours for inspiration?

It's all yours.

Thanks, Mom.

- Ah, there he is.
- Hey.

Spencer James.

Absolute honour, man.

- Absolute honour.
- No,

honour's all mine, sir.
Coach Baker

told me a lot about you.
Heard you gave

South Crenshaw a run
for their money

as a 5-star running back
at Dorsey.

- Ah.
- I see you. Ha ha ha!

See, no, no, no.
That was when Dorsey had...

- had that rivalry energy.
- Oh.

Heh! It was a no-brainer
coming here to coach

at this school with
a thriving football program,

and we got to thank you
for all that.

No, no, I didn't...
I didn't do much.

My boys have a state-of-the-art

weight room thanks
to your donations.

I mean, the only thing
left to do now

is to make it official.

We're gonna put your name

- on that weight room.
- No.

- Yeah, yeah.
- No, no.

No, I don't need
any recognition.

Heh! Those donations
were supposed to be

- anonymous, actually.
- Then maybe you

shouldn't have used
personal checks.

- Maybe, yeah.
- Maybe. Ha ha ha ha!

Nah, man, these walls belong

to the legacies
that came before me,

like Coach Baker.
Me, I'm just getting started.

Yeah, well, you know,
usually I don't take no

for an answer, so, um,

I'm gonna let you think on that.

- OK.
- But, uh,

I could use your help
in another way.

- Hmm?
- I need you to talk

to your boy Jordan.

Now, I... I don't know why he
keeps turning down my offers.

I want him on
the sidelines with me

next season, and I think
he wants to be there,

but he... I don't know.
Something...

- something's holding him back.
- Uh, yeah.

Yeah, I'll talk to him.
Absolutely, absolutely.

- Yeah, appreciate that, man.
- Yes, sir.

Appreciate that. Now,
let's go ahead and take

a look at that, uh,
Spencer James Weight Room.

Yeah? Yeah, I know.
I know you like that.

And congrats on the house.

- Layla told me about it.
- Thank you,

but we have not accepted
their offer yet.

You guys think you're going to?

Probably, you know,
but we don't want

- to make the wrong decision.
- Heh! You guys

really are the same person.

What? Why?
What'd she say?

Uh, OK.
Took you guys long enough.

We only got a few hours
to transform this place.

You're right. Well...

Hmm.
This'll work.

- Yes.
- Yeah?

- Damn.
- What's up?

I just got an alert that
my wedding gift is delayed.

Some storm on the east coast.

Did you, uh, run
your gift by Liv?

Heard she's been
a little on edge.

- Why would I? It's a gift.
- I'm just saying,

with your history
of gift-giving, you just

might want to check in.
Someone gave them knives.

OK, well, it wasn't me,
all right?

I'm a great gift-giver.

Look, I... I think they care
less about the gifts and more

- about your best man speech.
- Right, well... ahem!

My speech will kill.
Watch.

Dude, what is up? What, you
swallow a frog or something?

Ahem! No, I'm sorry.

Just need some water.

No, no, no, no, no.

What? What, honey?
What's wrong?

My engagement ring is gone.

Oh, my God.
This can't be happening.

- What do you mean, gone?
- It's gone! It's missing.

- Somewhere else, not here.
- OK, well, when was

the last time you
remember having it on?

- Brunch?
- Huh?

Wait. When was the last time
you remember seeing me

- wearing it?
- I don't know, sweetie.

Did you take it off
at some point?

- I did do the dishes.
- Whoa. Really?

Sorry. Ring.

OK. Focus.
We're gonna find it.

Oh! It's not here!

God! First my dress,
now my ring?

What if it fell down the drain?

OK...

Hey, babe. Hey.

- Mm.
- Oh... hi.

- Hi.
- Why are you whispering

- and dodging kisses?
- I think I'm

- losing my voice.
- OK.

Well... well,
you don't feel sick.

Could be stress.
Happens a lot

to my artists on tour.
Are you stressed about anything?

Well, now I am.
I have to give a speech

- and I can barely talk.
- Don't worry about it.

- We got this.
- Mm-hmm.

You are officially on vocal rest

- until the wedding.
- No talking?

Hey, two words
too many, Jordan, and we

can't tell Liv because
she's been freaking out

about her bad omens all day,
and this will send her

- over the edge, OK?
- OK. Well.

All right. Right.

Yo, I told you
Spencer James was here.

That's crazy!
Yo, it's for real him.

- How 'bout an autograph, Spence?
- Absolutely.

No problem, no problem.

- There you go.
- Hey, Spencer, can I get a photo

of you, please?

Y'all gonna let
that man breathe?

- All right, y'all.
- Thank you.

Of course, of course, OK.

What?
Come on, man.

Yes, sir.

- Does that ever get old?
- Not yet.

Ha ha ha!
Welcome home, brother.

- Feels good to be back, man.
- Yes, sir.

OK, before I let y'all
get into it, I just want

to say thanks for
the new media centre.

So much for anonymous.

- Hmm.
- Come on.

You know don't nothin'
stay secret in these halls.

Which is why
you're still grounded

- for skipping class last week.
- Ooh.

And that's my cue
to go find Deion

so he can give me
a ride home. Hmm.

Behave.

Always.

That girl thinks she's clever.

I'm surprised you're letting
Deion give her a ride home.

Yeah, Deion is crashing with us

for the weekend.
His sister's outta town

and she didn't trust him
home alone.

Hey, man, but tell me everything

about New York...

and your NFL
superstar life, man.

Ah, that's gonna have
to wait, bruh.

- Mm.
- I'm being summoned by the Mrs.

Man, y'all not even
married yet, and it's

already happenin'?
That is a damn shame.

Yup.

Why didn't we call a plumber?

Because it would
have taken a day,

and I'm pretty sure
my ring is in there, OK?

- I mean, it has to be, right?
- Hey.

- Hey, baby. You good?
- Yeah, uh,

do you want to know the truth

- or what you wanna hear?
- I take it you didn't

- get the ring resized.
- Oh, so it's my fault.

No, no, no, no, no.
I was just saying

that there is
an explanation, right?

So, clearly, this isn't part
of your whole omen thing, right?

Jordan, do you see anything?

I guess that's a "no."

Do you need, like,
more light, or, like,

one of those, like, uh,
the coil thingies?

Stop with the banging
and just answer me. Heh!

OK, maybe we just let
him focus, OK, 'cause he

works better when he's
really locked in.

I mean, seriously?
How long does it take

to pull apart pipes?
It's crazy.

We should have called
the plumber.

OK, um, wow.

Look at that.
Coop said everything

is ready, so we should
get going, please.

- Well, what about my ring?
- I promise you, I will

get on it as soon
as we get back, OK?

For now, let's do what
we set out to do...

enjoy this weekend,
especially tonight,

plus dinner tomorrow,
and then the big day

- after that. Come on.
- But my ring.

Don't worry about it.
We're good, we're good.

Surprise!

Since we didn't have time to go

to Vegas, we brought
Vegas to you.

Minus all the fun parts.

Olivia, chuckling:
It's perfect. Hi.

Thank you.
That is dope.

Ha ha ha! Hi.

Hi!

I'm Megan.
This is Mike.

We're from Magic Mike
Entertainment,

and we're here for the party.

I'm going to kill you.

Has Preach ever seen
"Sesame Street"?

I guess tonight's sponsored by

- the letter "S" for "strippers."
- Stop talking.

Didn't we say, "No strippers"?

Maybe that's code
for "send strippers."

- Oh.
- We're not strippers.

Your company's name
is Magic Mike's.

We're magicians.

I'm Mike Dean.

Y'all got a disappearin' act?

OK.

I've heard of inflation,
but that's ridiculous.

Ha! Heh.

Kinda wish they
were strippers now. Hmm.

Bad joke aside,
how is she actually

- making her money float?
- For our next trick,

- I'd like a volunteer.
- Ooh, ooh, ooh.

How about the guest of honour?

It's my fiancée's night, too.

Then we'll let
your fiancée choose.

- Thanks, babe.
- OK.

Ah.

Pick a card, show it
to your friends,

- put it back in the deck.
- OK.

Would you kindly check
your pocket?

There's no way.

Is that your card?

- Is that my ring?!
- What?

Oh! Oh, my God.

It's the queen of diamonds.

- Heh! Wait, what...
- That was cool.

But... but how?
But... but what?

- It's magic.
- No, no.

Seriously, where'd you find it?
And please don't give me

no nonsense about a magician
never reveals his secrets.

I took it out of your
pocket, thought it would

be cool to use in the trick.

Why would it be in my pocket?

It must have slipped off
when I kissed you earlier.

I love stripper-magicians!

Mwah! Ha ha!

Whoo!
Whew! Ha ha!

This is so cute.

I know.

OK, what gives?

Your phone's made you
laugh more in the last

20 minutes than I ever have.

- Ahem.
- Heh! You and Luke sexting?

- We're having fun.
- But is he funny?

Ahem.

You know, a little
friendly competition has

never hurt anyone, but I
didn't take you for someone

- who would bring in a ringer.
- I have no idea

- what you're talking about.
- You getting Denise

to help you punch up
your speech!

I am doing no such thing.

OK, fine, she's
helping me a little bit.

What's the big deal?
It's not like she's writing

the whole speech for me.
Your speech is

- gonna be great, too.
- You wanna play dirty?

Get ready to follow
the greatest speech

you ever heard.
You want a mother-off?

You got it.

OK, Grace.

See you at the rehearsal dinner.

Now, that is good.

It's like you got engaged
all over again. Heh!

Spencer would've killed me

- if I lost this ring.
- No, he wouldn't.

No, he wouldn't.

How did I get so lucky?

Look who's finally talking luck

instead of omens.

I know. I was spending
all my time focusing

on the bad things that I
couldn't see the good.

Well, it's hard to recognise
one without the other.

Yeah. Have I wasted
the whole weekend?

No! Hey, look, we are
just getting started.

You still have plenty of time
to let the magic happen.

Just like it did tonight.

Let me see.

What's up, man?

You good?

You know, I met up
with Coach Bobby today.

Why didn't you tell me
about his job offer?

Look, man, I get it.

It's a lot of pressure.

Coaching at your pop's
old school,

for a sport that he loved,

on the field named after him.

Hmm.

But tell me something...

if this was another school

with a program this great,

would you want the job?

Then take the damn job, J.

You are your pop's
legacy no matter

- where you go.
- Hmm.

So why not expand
the Baker legacy

at a place that meant
so much to your dad

and your Grandma Mary?

And I know,
if your dad was here,

he would tell you
the same thing.

Whoo!

Who ordered
the strippers this time?

We did. Ha!

Now this party can really
get started. Let's go.

Go, baby!

Make it stop.

Dillon?

Are you serious?

And there's nothing you can do?

Yeah, yeah, just...
just keep me posted.

Mm. What now?

There's a huge storm back east.

Dillon's flight got canceled.

Canceled?
What does that mean?

It usually means the plane
does not fly no more.

Mm-mm.
Too early for sarcasm.

Talking about Dillon, baby.

He's your best man.
Is he gonna make it?

Not to the rehearsal
dinner tonight.

He's trying to get
a flight tomorrow morning

- in time for the wedding.
- Wait.

If Dillon is stuck
because of the storm...

then Grandpa Willie

and Grandma Wendy are, too.
They texted this morning.

Ugh! This sucks.

Yeah, it does.

Uh-uh. No.
No, no, no, no, no.

Rain on a wedding day
is actually good luck.

Today is the day before
our wedding day, and not if

it's keeping our loved ones
from being there for us.

You find anything?

There's a flight that leaves
at 7:00 in the morning,

which would get him here
by 9:00, but the weather

isn't clear until 5:00,
which feels a little tight.

I have no idea what
you just said.

Translation... Dillon will
be here for your wedding.

OK.

- Good? Thank you.
- Thank you.

All right.

Hey, Mom, do you think

Dillon's flight getting
canceled is a bad sign?

Ha ha ha!
"A bad sign"?

Who are you, and what
did you do with my son?

I'm serious.

You may be the king
in Crenshaw, but the F.A.A.

and Mother Earth
don't know that.

Somebody should tell 'em.

What's going on, baby?

Liv keeps thinking
everything going wrong

this weekend is a bad omen.

It is not your job

as her future husband
to share the same brain as her.

Billy used to always say

the best partnerships
are when two

different-but-connected halves

come together to make
a beautiful whole.

Bottom line...
she's just nervous.

You both are.

As amazing as your love is,

getting married is
a huge commitment.

Hosting your family
and your friends,

that's a big deal,
and spending your life

with someone takes practice.

- Now I'm even more nervous.
- D'Angelo and I,

we have this rule.

When one of us is
feeling out of sorts,

we take each other
to a safe space,

a place where we could unwind

and get back to basics together.

So, what's a safe space
for Olivia?

Mm... oh, my God!
Liv, what the hell!

- You scared me.
- Sorry. I'm just...

- I'm looking for the sea salt.
- Sea salt?

Yeah, to go with my crystals,
my horseshoe charm, sage.

Actually, the horseshoe
charm is Jordan's

from eighth grade,
and then the sage is yours,

but you're cool if I
borrow it, right?

Of course, yeah,
and the sea salt is to put

in the corners of the room
here and at your house.

Exactly, because I just
figured I was letting

the bad omens win,
you know, and it's just

not very Baker-like.
You know, we're fighters,

- and so I'm gonna fight them off.
- You know what?

Good for you, girl.
Kick their ass.

Yeah.

Oh, by the way, where is Jordan?

And why was he acting
so quiet and weird yesterday?

Um...

We were just...

playing a little game
of, um, "who could

stay silent the longest."
It's like a weird kinky

married thing that we do,
but don't worry about it.

You know, it works for us.
Anyway, here's your salt,

- so...
- OK.

Yeah, no, I mean,
to... to each their own.

Hmm.

- Looks good on you, son.
- Mm.

Hey, no, no, no...

just saying.

Chair, the, uh...

and the office...

like home.

I'm gonna leave you to it.

Hello.

Hello.

Do you want to come
all the way in?

My trust in you is
a little fragile right now.

Oh, my God. Fine!

If you don't want me to use
Denise for help, I won't.

Really?
You'd do that?

Well, maybe just one
of her jokes 'cause it'll

really kill, but that's it.
I promise.

Geez, OK.
Now I know why

your kids know how
to show respect.

That's actually why I'm
here, for our children.

We know them better
than anyone else,

so...

I wanted you to hear
the first part

- of my speech.
- OK.

Ahem!

"I spent most of my kids' lives

"as a single mom.
They had no choice

"but to understand when I
worked late or fed them

"leftovers for dinner
3 nights in a row, or when I

"needed some extra help
around the house, or even

"when I needed a break.

"They were my every day,

"every moment, every breath.

"And then the Bakers
came into our lives.

"When I asked Billy for help,
he didn't hesitate.

"When Billy brought
Spencer home, Laura

"treated him like a son,
and for the first time

in my life, I felt
like I had a village."

OK, you win the mother-off.

Hmm.

"It hasn't always been easy,

"it hasn't always been smooth,

"but we've navigated
the last 6 years together.

"Together.

"My son, both of my sons,

"are who they are
not just because of me,

"but because of the life
Billy and Laura

"so graciously
opened up for them.

"And now, these last few years,

"through epic loss...

"epic love,

"and epic life decisions,
Laura and I

still get to do it together."

"And I get to call
her daughter my own."

That's beautiful, Grace.

- Even though it's not funny?
- It's the truth.

It's perfect, and I think
I have the perfect way

to end it. Together.

Let's do it.

Oh, this is such a good idea!

Just me, you, Jacuzzi
all to ourselves.

What can I say?
Your future husband

- is full of good ideas.
- Heh!

Yeah, this was your mom's
idea, wasn't it?

Not in so many words.

Do you remember our first time

- in a Jacuzzi?
- How could I forget?

- I wanted to kiss you so bad.
- And then

Jordan got in the way
with that whole

"Spencer's our brother" thing.

Heh heh! Yup! Well...

Let's go.

- Oh, my God. Wait, wait.
- What? What?

- What the hell, woman?
- You don't......

you don't smell that?
It's like...

like, chlorine
or, like... like,

- a lot of chlorine.
- Yeah. Ahem.

- Yeah, that's not good.
- Oh, God. Phew!

Oh, no sexy Jacuzzi time for us.

OK, Liv, I know what
you're thinking, but...

- I'm so confused.
- It worked!

All the crystalling and
the saging and the salting

that I did, it just
saved us from bad luck.

I beat its ass. Mm.

Yeah.

Bad juju ain't
no match for my girl.

- Mm-mm.
- Ha ha ha ha!

- Ha ha ha!
- Come on, let's go.

- Let's go... whoa! Whoa!
- Jordan, what the hell?!

Mm.

What's going on?

No!

No, we had enough
pocket-digging last night.

- I disagree.
- It's weird.

"Just a little something..."

"to tell you both..."

"how much I love you."

"The coordinates
from when..."

"you solidified
your love."

Your house.

How much did you tell
your brother

about the night
we "solidified" our love?

Baby, not that night.

- Oh.
- No, the night that...

The night that I

told you that I
was ready to fight

for my recovery and for you.

Jordan encouraged me to do that.

I remember.

Hey, careful now.
You're inching towards

- groomzilla status.
- What? No, I was just...

Fidgeting 'cause you're nervous.

Something like that.

So tell me, what feels better?
Winning the Super Bowl

or marrying the love
of your life?

You already know
the answer to that.

- Hmm.
- But ask me again tomorrow,

since it's my day and all.

Hmm. Well, I should
tell you that...

that I can't believe
we're here, that we've

achieved another one
of your dreams yet again,

that we've... we've worked
so hard for this moment.

- But you're not going to?
- Not this time.

No, today it's... it's
all on you, man.

You've loved Liv since
the moment you saw her.

You knew she was your future

and you never
lost sight of that.

OK, Coop with the words.

What else you got?

Just a little taste
of what you'll hear

tomorrow when I officiate.

Ah, well, it tastes good.

That sounded a lot
better in my head.

Come on, man.

- Leave the words to me.
- OK, OK.

But, just so you know,
in case you thinking

of spicing things up...

payback is a bitch
when it's time for me

to officiate you
and Patience's wedding.

I attended dozens

of your pretend
weddings growing up.

- Heh heh!
- And now here we are for real.

I know.
I can't believe it.

All those pretend weddings,
and I had no clue how

truly amazing it would feel
marrying the man of my dreams.

Hey, you remember
when we were 7,

I accidentally walked
in on you wearing

- your "wedding dress"?
- Oh, my gosh, yes,

and apparently,
that was a premonition.

You made me sit in the back
row, and you didn't let me

- have lemonade at the reception.
- Heh! No, actually, I...

I thought him
seeing me in my dress

was a bad omen...
but as much as I love

that dress, it...
it wasn't really me.

So, in a way,
you kinda did me a favour.

Hmm, to favours, then.

To favours.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, OK.

OK.

Hi. Oh, I love your dress!

- You look beautiful.
- Why, thank you.

Mm-hmm.

It's a whole vibe in here.
I'm gonna go mingle.

- Mm-hmm.
- OK. Mm-hmm.

I been meaning to say
that I'm really proud

with everything you've
done to this place.

Well, tonight came with
way more help than just me.

No, this whole lounge
and what it means

to the community, especially

for a Black woman
investing here,

we ain't had nothing
like this south

of Exposition
since my pops came up.

And thank you

for showing us how
a home can be transformed

into everything that we deserve.

So......
I was thinking,

you know, since ya...
... knocked it

out of the park with
those gifts and, uh,

you're the head of
the Baker house and all,

I thought it would be nice
if you started the dinner

with a little speech.

Cool.
I will take

that silence as a yes
and go get the mic.

What?

Do you want to tell me
something or...

You lost your voice, didn't you?

Yeah.

Well,

thank you for
protecting my sanity

and not waving
another omen in my face.

You're a really great brother...

and I love you.

So, if you all will
raise your glasses...

We would like to make
a toast to the happy couple.

Spencer and Liv,
look around at the room

full of people who love you.
This is your village.

Marriage is hard work,

compromise,

commitment, and forgiveness.

It's also fun, intimate,

adventurous, and special.

But above all, marriage
is something you do together.

In the words
of the great Billy Baker,

the best partnerships
are when two

different-but-connected
halves come together

- to make a beautiful whole.
- Hmm.

- So...
- Cheers.

- Cheers.
- Cheers.

Aww.

We can't run
from this any longer.

We have to suck it up and face
the housing decision before us,

so...

I am gonna list pros
and cons about the house,

and you are going
to buzz if you agree.

Come on.

OK, um, pros.

Good location,

nice size, and...

decent price?

OK.

Cons.
Needs a lot of work,

um, small backyard...

- Mm.
- And...

something else.

Something else is missing.

Right, but what is it?

What's wrong with us?

It's not home.

I'd yell at you for speaking,

but those words were worth

breaking vocal rest for...

so what do we do?

Decline the offer

and... wait until something
feels like home.

I got you home safely...

so now, it's time
to bid you adieu.

Ah, that Shakespeare thing
really stuck, huh?

Sometimes it's befitting
of the moment.

Tomorrow, you're
gonna be my wife.

Tomorrow, you're
gonna be my husband. Heh!

We're already winning
at this marriage thing.

- Yeah?
- I mean, we conquered

- those omens.
- Mm.

I'm sure it's just Patience,

saying that she already landed,

but I would much rather

say good night
to my almost husband.

Heh!

Why's our wedding planner
calling me?

Hello?

Yeah.

What do you mean,
our venue's ruined?

Greg, move your head.
