I'm worried about
the restaurant.

It's missing something.

Um, customers?

Nobody is excited
when they come in anymore.

You see the looks
on their faces. It's just...

Yeah, "Is this
place still here?"

Okay, so the
restaurant's reliable,

but it's not surprising.

So what would surprise you?

Hmm. Customers.

I never liked you.

I tolerate you,
but I never actually liked you.

Here you go.

Let me show you what
I have in today.

This fountain was built in 1903

by Mortimer Hayward...

So, Beekman's changing
the design again?

Oh, for heaven's sakes.

It's Saturday.

When-when's he expecting it?

I wish you spent as much time

on your personal life.

Mom, I go on plenty of dates.

First dates.

Hey.

Your father and I

are about to have
our 40th wedding anniversary.

You know why?
Hmm?

Because he asked me out
on a second date.

Sorry, Joe.

You don't have that
much time, you know.

Your father started
going bald young.

Oh... Hold on.

Mom, Dad has hair.

Well, that's debatable.

Oh, no, no, it's my mom

harassing me about
my love life again.

Oh, yeah, well, if
there was ever a reason

to come into the office
on the weekend...

I've handed out flyers
to local office buildings,

social media promotions,

donations to local events
to raise the profile.

Okay, Nat, we've been
friends for a long time,

so I think I can tell you this

without hurting your feelings.

Lose the opera.

When you walk in the front door,

there's, like, this wall
of opera that greets you.

My mom loved the opera.

Yeah, well, your mother
also loved customers.

Look, I know this restaurant
is your family legacy,

I get it, but...

it just hasn't been the same.

I know.
Don't you think I know that?

That's why I have
the new chef coming.

I just hoped after six months,
I'd be able to find that,

you know, just...
I don't know.

Magic?

Yeah. I... I thought maybe
I could find that.

Oh, my goodness,
is that Lori Beth?

Who?

Lori Beth Wacker

from seventh grade, remember?
Hey.

Lori Beth!

Hi.
Hi.

Oh!

Oh...
How wonderful to see you.

Yeah.

Your mother told me
you were back in town.

Yeah.
Lori Beth.

Nick! Hi.
How are you?

Oh, I moved back into
town a couple months ago.

It's so great to see you.

How long has it been?

15 years.

Oh, wow.

My one true love...

and my biggest regret,

losing touch with you
when we moved, but...

but how serendipitous.

You know, Nick is
a big-time architect now.

Oh.
He designs bridges.

Nick, give her your card.

Well, you always did want
to build things.

Change the world.

I wouldn't exactly say
I'm doing that yet, but...

Lori Beth works in
landscape design. Oh.

Mm-hmm.

Architect, landscaper.

Isn't that kismet-y?

Ooh, speaking of work,

I'm actually just
on my way in now,

Oh. but hey, really, really
good to see you, Lori Beth.

Yeah, you too, Nick.

I would totally call you.
Great.

We have a lot to catch up on

after all this time.

You do, you do.

Yeah?
So do, call him.

Okay, I will.

I will. Bye!

Bye.
Bye.

We just happened to
run into each other?

What a coincidence.

You know, life is full of them,

even if sometimes you have
to give them a little push.

I feel really badly
you aren't making any tips.

Do you want to quit?

I want you to quit.

Quit thinking that you
have to keep the place

just like it was when
your mother was alive.

I am so sorry, Nat.
I didn't...

No, no, it's okay.
It's just that...

If I don't move forward,
I'm gonna lose the restaurant.

I mean, it's stuck in the past,
and so am I.

Come on.

Grandma!

Uncle Nick! Hey. Oh!

Kiddos. Hi.

Look at these.
Ooh, I like these.

Very...
Are we late?

We had to take a detour
to the girls' favorite store,

the house of neon and sparkle.

That's not what it's called.

No, that's okay.

Mom found a way to introduce me

to yet another future
daughter-in-law. Oh.

Lori Beth Wacker.
Hmm.

He used to be crazy about her.

- I was 12.
- Grandma,

can we have a quarter
to make a wish?

A quarter?

In my day, it was a penny.

Well, don't look at me.

I spent all my money at
the house of neon and sparkle.

That's not what it's called.

Really?
Quarters.

Uncle Nick's got quarters.

Let's do this. Yes! All right.

We're going wishing.
Let's do it.

You're gonna regret it.

Oh, those are pretty.

Maybe I should get these
for the restaurant.

Good morning, ladies.
Hey.

A bouquet to brighten your day?

Yeah, they're lovely.
They're $5.99,

each bouquet.

Oh, okay, um,

I will take these.

Here you are.

Oh, no, it's okay.

No, she'll take it.

No, no, it's fine.

Just take it, would you?

Thank you.

Um, I'm sorry.

What are you doing?

Okay.

All right, here.

You need this.

W-Wish for a surprise.

Okay, turning a restaurant
around doesn't happen by magic.

Okay, so then if you knew
the surprise would come true,

what would you wish for?

Well, you are always bugging
me about my love life, so...

Penny for you?

Ah, I have everything
I could've ever wished for.

If I had a wish
for you however...

Oh, you'd wish that I'd
be spared a receding hairline.

I'd wish that
you'd get over her.

I know what you
felt about Jessa,

but you need to move on, honey.

You need to find the right one.

♪ ♪

I bet my wish comes true
before yours does.

Oh,

it's almost 11:00.
We got to buzz.

Bye, honey.

Wait, he literally

handed you the bill?

The waitress came by us,

and he slid the bill
in front of me

like it was my...
No. I don't believe you.

Hold this. We... we
were dating for what?

Two weeks?

I mean, seriously. I just
find that hard to believe.

What guy does that?

A 44-year-old man.

I guess.

Hey, I saw that.

I saw that.

If the city went solar,

you connect that bridge
to the grid.

Now it gets the power
when it needs it,

gives the surplus back
when it doesn't.

Want to tell him that?

Mr. Beekman, sir.

Good morning.

Well, thanks for coming in
over the weekend.

A deadline is a deadline.

We understand, George,
and not to worry.

I'm gonna give it the
old Beekman touch.

That's why the planning
commission comes to you, Lance.

We know you get it done.

Beekman ever introduce
you to a client?

Not a chance.

So, where is he?
I'm not sure.

He was supposed to
fly in yesterday.

If he doesn't arrive,
I can cook.

Oh, um, thanks, Damien,

but maybe you could just refill
the salt and pepper shakers.

Sure.

Buongiorno.

Oh. And there he
is, our new chef.

Natalia?

Uh, what-what is he saying?

Oh, um, that, um,
he thinks I'm a radiant beauty.

That's sweet. Well, you're
not so bad yourself.

I'm Sharla

with an "A,"

which is like Italian already.

Yes, yes, you just keep
looking at me,

whatever your name is,

with those dark chocolate eyes.

His name's Mario. Mario.

I thought you said he was
an old guy from Italy.

This is not an old guy.

Well, I just hope he can cook,

because I took on faith
from my Italian relatives

that he was good. Hi.

Uh, mi dispiace.

I'm sorry

I wasn't able to greet you

at the airport yesterday.

Um, I don't know how to say
all of that in Italian.

Uh, it's no problem.

I-I feel the warmth
of your welcome,

okay, Natalia? Hmm?

And he speaks English.

Uh, I cook for tonight?

Yes! Let me show you
the kitchen.

Okay.

So, it's a pretty
basic kitchen. Um...

Stupid.

Anybody here?

Hello?

Hey.
No, Mom.

I told you, you didn't
need to bring lunch.

I just wanted to make sure
you have a decent meal.

Hiya, Joe.
Hi.

Something in here for you, too.

I love your mom.
Hmm.

Did, uh, Nick tell you that
we ran into his ex-girlfriend?

Oh.
The love of his life.

Oh, yeah, when I was 12.

Then she moved away
and broke his heart.

No, I was 12.

His first kiss.

When you were 12.

Picked up on that?

I want you to take her out.

No, Mom,
you're a world-class mother.

I love you.
How many times have I told you,

do not fix me up?

You...

Stand-up night
at the Comedy Cellar.

Tomorrow, 8:00.

Lori Beth loves to laugh.

It's a date.

Oh...
I made it for you.

Yeah. Whoa, whoa, whoa,
but there's only two here.

I mean, are you sure
you didn't mean to buy three,

in case you wanted
to sit with us?

You could interfere some more.

Can I?
Oh, yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

There's extra mustard
in the bag, Joe.

Dude, your mom is the best.

Hey, do you think
Lori Beth's got a friend?

Do not disappoint me.

Maybe she's your
fountain wish come true.

No-no-no-no-no.

Okay, my wish was to win
the Green Bridge Award.

Dude, come on.
Not so loud.

If Beekman finds out...

How's everything?

It's not the same.

It's better.

Oh, uh, wonderful.

Great. I'll let the chef know.

Really marvelous.

I think it's great.

Is this a new dish...

Where's the garlic?

Right.

They love the food.

Che cos' è?
What do you look for?

Uh, one of our regulars
likes extra garlic.

Che?

For the alfredo sauce. I know
it's weird, but it's just like...

Wait, wait, wait.

No, no, no, no, don't worry,

it's not you. It's just
his thing. He just...

His thing but is not my thing.
What? Wait, Mario...

The alfredo sauce.

Mario!

Buonasera.
Hello.

Extra garlic?
Please.

Bene.
Extra more, huh? Huh?!

Whoa. Whoa-whoa- whoa-whoa! Huh?

Oh, wow. What he means is
he really just appreciates

your suggestion
for extra garlic.

Yeah, I said you eat like a pig.

Mm. Okay.

No, no, no! It's on the

house...

Natalia, we need
more clienti, eh?

I cannot cook without customers.

I can cook.

You have two new voice messages.

New message.

Hi, it's Amanda. Thanks
for the dinner the other night.

Hey, listen, I heard about
this new art show,

and I was wondering...

Hey, It's Kelly
from the Coffee Grinder.

I don't usually do this,

but, uh, I was just thinking
about you...

♪ ♪

As the cycle of life
repeats itself

on the coastline of Aruba,

the male flamingo
goes in search of a mate.

You have one new voice message.

Hey, Natalie. This is Ellis.
Sharla's cousin.

We met at her party.

Sharla said you needed
to, uh, get out?

Oh, wait,
that didn't sound right.

Anyway, I really like
to eat food.

Hold on. I got another call.

But all is not well

on the island as our family
of flamingos

struggles to survive
the harsh conditions

of the windy autumn.

Would you like a table?

A table?

Wait...

How did I get here?

Oh, I know this place.

Where is everybody?
Where is everyone?

It's just us.

I'm Natalie.

Hey, Natalie. I'm Nick.

Yeah, I feel like
I've seen you before.

I know.

I feel like...
I feel like I know you.

Excuse me.

I think this is for you.

For me?

Wow...

it's you.

No, it's my mother.

Well, clearly,
you've inherited her spirit.

Thanks.

Who are you?

You are so beautiful.

Did I just say it out loud?

I don't mind.

During the summer months,
snow is the primary source

of the penguin's hydration.
Once he is nourished,

he will have the vitality
to move on.

It was a dream,
but it was so real.

Yeah, especially the part

where you woke up alone
in your jammies.

I was on my couch.

Did he look like Justin Timberlake?
Better.

Yeah, nobody looks better
than Justin Timberlake.

You were in dreamland.

Oh, did my cousin Ellis
call you?

Yeah. By the way, why
did you have him do that?

Okay, sweetie,
and I say this with love,

you gotta call him back.

Ooh!
Mm-mm.

And if you don't like
working on Saturday,

don't bother coming in
on Sunday.

Oh, I know it, buddy.

Is that your Green Bridge
competition?

We've got blueprints to finish.

Lori Beth.

She-she set a countdown clock
for our date tonight.

Yeah. No, literally,

I'm-I'm getting hourly alerts.

She always been like this?

I don't know.
I was 12.

She was cute.
Who remembers?

She does.

Doomsday clock again?

So now she's texting me outfits

to see which one she
should wear tonight. No...

And she's cc'ing my mother.
Fantastic.

Date's off, dude.

I can't cancel.

My mom would kill me.

Mama's boy!

Kiddos, how goes it
in the sandbox?

You done drafting those
blueprints yet?

Almost done.
Very, very soon.

We're on it, sir.
No worries.

Huh.

Dude,

put the Green Bridge stuff
away before he sees it.

I got it, I got it.

Hang on.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.

What's the white?
Oh, yeah, you like that?

So I added
this solar paint here.

Help the bridge generate power.

It's brilliant.
Right?

No, I mean it.

But you heard the man, we have
to focus on drafting now, okay?

If he finds out about the
competition, you're toast.

You can't just
go around designing

and submitting material
while you work for him.

I know, I know.
I just...

I need something to
keep my brain alive.

Buongiorno, Mario.

Mario.

Buongiorno.

Limoncello?

Yeah, for tiramisu.

But no, no is possible.

Yes, possible.

No, no,

no, this my kitchen, okay?

This my kitchen.

Our kitchen, no problem,

però limoncello,
no go in the tiramisu.

It's an authentic family recipe

from my grandmother
with a twist.

Yeah, but your grandmother,
she was Greek, no?

What's the difference? She was Greek!
You are changing an Italian recipe!

Not just this recipe.
All the recipes!

It's time, Mario.
Ma bene, ma bene.

Come. Come taste with me.
Together, my dear,

we make magic, okay?

Okay. Five minutes.

Five minutes.

What?

He's Italian... he acts
like this with all women.

Yeah, well, he doesn't
want to cook with me.

Which is too bad 'cause I'd
totally heat things up with him.

All right, I'm gonna go see

if there are any clienti.

Oh! Oh! I'm okay.

Coming.

Excuse me.

It should be good.

Excuse me, excuse me.

Oop.

Ta-da!

What do you think?

The outfit. Yes, yeah,

I think that's the best one.

You think?
Yeah, definitely.

I don't look 12 anymore?

Do I?

It's good to see you.
Great to see you.

This is us.
Oh!

What's this?

Lagri... what?

Some kind of pasta?

Lagri... folio.

Some kind of wine.

Uh, I'agrifoglio...

it means, um,
"holly" in Italian.

It was the name of

my grandmother's restaurant
in Italy.

The-the place was-was
covered with holly.

It was just like this.

So this is authentic Italian?

With a twist.

And tonight we have tiramisu,

on the house.

I'm in.

Come on, Gloria.
Okay...

Great!
Oh, uh...

So what's the twist?

Tonight it's two new customers.

Oh. Well, then, I'd
better get in there.

That was hysterical.

Didn't you think he was funny?

- Yeah, he was...
- he was...

he was
pretty funny.

So... what's
next, huh?

Are we going to relive that time

we skipped study hall and we
hid in the library stacks?

'Cause if so, that is adorable.

Here we go.

Your mother...
she thought

that story was a crack up. Yeah?

Oh, and the one where
my older brother Luke

got his driver's license

and he took us to that drive-in?

Do you remember that R-rated movie?
Yeah.

So you-you...

you-you-you told those
stories to my mom, huh?

Yeah, today.

When she helped me
pick out my outfit.

Look, I think
I'm just a little...

I'm really overloaded at work.

And... I'm probably
gonna go home and

hit the sack.

Mm.

Mm.

Hmm...

Tips.

Like, actual tips.

Uh, tiramisu.
Thank you.

On the house.

Enjoy. Great. Thanks.

Ooh!

Whoa!
Oh...

You okay?

Yeah.

Uh, Damieno, the floor is wet.

It needs to be dry.
Secco.

My... my hero.

I am your hero, no?

Yeah. Can you, um...

Yes. Yes, let's get back to work.
Okay.

Oh, and remember
when you found out

I had written
"Mrs. Lori Beth Smith"

all over my notebook?

I was so mortified.

Uh, this is me.

This... okay.
Oh.

Uh, Lori Beth,

I, uh, really appreciate

you coming out with me.

Sure made my mom happy.

That's not why I'm here, Nick.

I thought maybe

there'd be something between us.

I always wondered about you.

But we're back together now.

I even updated
my online status to

"In a relationship
with Nick Smith."

W... maybe you
should delete that.

Are you breaking up with me?

Well, it's-it's not
breaking up with someone

if you were never together.

Look, I've just come through

something really intense
with someone and...

That was great, Nat.

Thanks, Sharla.
Good night.

Buonasera, Mario.

Ciao.

Thanks, Natalie.
Good night, Damien.

Have a good night.
You, too.

Natalia...
Mm-hmm?

The... the limoncello
in the tiramisu.

Eh, not the original recipe,

però it's not too bad.

That's, uh...
that big of you to admit, Mario.

Eh, I am big.

A big heart.

So, um...

you like me?

As a chef?

Yeah.

Yes.

Your pasta's incredible and...
Mm.

The mains we'll just
keep tweaking, but, um...

Hey...
keeping tweaking!

Okay, Natalia,
you teach me how to cook, eh?

No...
No, no.

Natalia teach Mario, it's okay.
No, it...

It was a... it was a good
night, Mario, so, um...

let's get some sleep.

Catch some sleep.

You will catch some sleep

you know,
get... you...

I mean, you go home and I'll...

Um, I'll go here, so...
let's get some sleep.

Yeah.

Okay.

Um...

Mm-hmm?

Natalia, um...

you know your mama and my mama,

they were friends at school.

And, uh, my mama

wanted to tell you
she's very sorry

your beautiful mama...

your beautiful mama.

Grazie.

Soon the trees were overtaken

by the savanna as giraffes waged
a war against the forest

to claim the land
we now call Africa.

The tallest animals
devoured the highest branches,

while elephants used
their tremendous strength

to uproot the trees
for nourishment.

Whoa, hey!

Careful!
It's okay.

I can fly.

Don't do that.
Please.

I just got here.

I want to feel alive.

Really alive.

Don't you?

Just...

want to take risks.

Isn't it about time?

Look, it's so beautiful
out there.

Ooh...

look at that,
look at that, right there.

Do you see that?

What? I don't
see anything.

Yeah, exactly.

That's the, that's the spot,
right there,

that I'm hoping
my bridge will go.

Right there.

What bridge?

I sent in a design

to a city competition.

Wow.

You design bridges?

Well, I mean, mostly I draft...

but, uh...

yeah, this one's mine.
And I-I think

it's a good one.
Oh!

Oh, I see it!

Good, there it is.
Yeah, I can see it.

They built it already?

How is that even possible?
It's marvelous.

You're talented.

That's how.

That must be amazing.

To... create
something

and... have it
made real.

It's not so scary up here.

No.

My mom used to say...

"Spread your
wings, Natalie."

Mm...

You smell like something good.

Amaretti.

I was baking today.

What's-what's amaretti?

Uh, cookies.

For the restaurant.

Let me show you something.

It soars,

releases itself,

free from the confines
of its wrapping...

You get to taste the magic.

Wow.

Oh.

What, and you say that
you don't create anything?

Me? Create?

I just... I cook.

Well...

to me...

that tastes like a creation.

You know, you may be right.

The interpretation of dreams?

You dream of me?

Uh... dreams reveal
our innermost secrets.

Mm, and desires, bella.

Yeah. I gotta
get to work.

Here. Old family
recipes from Umbria...

with a twist.

She called me in tears.

All right, so I'm a jerk.

Yeah, you and several others.

She's had three
broken engagements

in the last several years.

Three?

Two, three...

It just means she's
ready for commitment, Oh.

But she hasn't found
the right person.

You ever dreamt
about someone that...

you've never met before?

You mean like the one where
I dream about Jack Nicholson?

A young, virile Jack Nicholson?

I love... No, Mom.
Okay, forget I...

forget I even mentioned it.

Have you found yourself
a dream girl, sweetheart?

I... it's... this is
gonna sound ridiculous,

but I keep having

these dreams
about this beautiful girl.

I mean, and she is so real.

More-more real than anyone
I've ever met.

It's strange.

Oh, but it's wonderful.

If you're dreaming
about a special girl,

your brain is prepping you

to fall in love for real.

This is very promising.

My work as a mother
is done for the day.

Good to know.

Ah, Mario,
another excellent night.

Thank you.
Buonanotte.

Ciao.
Yeah.

Buonanotte, Mario.

- Thanks, guys. Good night.
- Bye.

See you.
Bye.

Okay, not even a wink

or a peck for poor Mario?

Are you having that dream again

with Justin Timberlake,
but better?

Two nights in a row.

Oh, boy.

I know, but he's exactly
who I'd be with

in real life if I could.

Yeah, why can't I have
dreams like that?

I'm with him and I have
these feelings

like I've always known him.

And he knows me.

And I'm in this total state

of fantasy.

I know, I'm probably...

definitely going crazy.

But I can't wait to
go to sleep tonight

so I can maybe see him.

Am I losing it?

Yeah, maybe.
I mean,

what do you, what do you do
if you feel like

you've found "the guy"?

Only he's a figment
of your imagination,

and there isn't any chance
you'll ever meet him

because you made him up?

And... and then what if,

when you're dreaming,

your life is so much better

and you never felt more awake?

Well, I'm thinking that you...

should get some sleep.

♪ ♪

Oh, this is crazy.

Okay.

♪ ♪

Is this gonna keep happening
night after night?

I was hoping to see you here.

Oh! Plums.

They're my favorite.

Oh, this one?

This one's unreal.
You got to taste it.

Okay, careful.

I'll be careful.

Mmm!
Mmm.

Wow, it's lovely.

You like snowball fights?

You'll lose.

I doubt it!

Oh, no!

Wait, you can't...
That's not fair.

Oh, I beat you.

You let me win, didn't you?

I used to picnic
in a place like this

when I was little.

It come with mood lighting?

Wow.

Plums and

plates of food.

Yeah, all good,

except for that broccoli.

Oh, you've never had it
the way I make it.

I own an Italian restaurant,
you know.

Oh, is that right?

Mm-hmm.

Well, what are we doing here?

Oh, I suppose

I could take you there.

Make you something special,
some special broccoli.

If you'd like.

Yeah, I would.

I'd like that.

Okay.

This way.

When she got sick, I'd cook
and bring meals to the hospital.

But, um, she was so frail
she couldn't eat.

All those-those years of food

just being this thing we shared.

Now, since she's died, it's...

Whenever you think of her,

your restaurant
reminds you of her.

I... It's got to be hard.

You know, all day, every day

being reminded of someone you
love who can't really be there.

I think... you need to just
put your stamp on the place.

You know what I mean?
Like, really make it your own.

How long have we been walking?

I think it's somewhere close.

All night?

I don't mind.

You are gonna be
a big designer one day.

I can tell.

You think?
Mm-hmm.

I don't know.

How about that?

Nice job.

Hi, uh, you know Nick?

Do you know where he went?

Do I know you?

Did he say where he was going?

No, no, he left.

And he didn't say where.

I don't know where else to look.

What if the magic stops working

What if this is just a dream?

There's only one way
to find out.

You're real.

The famous Hayward fountain.

Built in 1903
by Mortimer Hayward,

the stones are
from the ruins of a castle

which was supposedly enchanted.

Local folklore has it

that the magic
still exists in the stones.

They say if you make a wish,

you might dream
of your true love.
