00:00:40 Hi everybody, Tara Holmes here.
00:00:43 Wait till you get your hands on this.
00:00:45 Holmes Hand Care.
00:00:47 My brand new exclusive skin care product.
00:00:51 Let me just give you a little sneak peek inside.
00:00:54 We're also just so, so excited about this elegant packaging.
00:00:59 And guess what?
00:01:00 It's available starting now.
00:01:03 Click the link in my bio.
00:01:05 You are gonna love it.
00:01:06 [MUSIC]
00:01:14 Here we go.
00:01:15 [MUSIC]
00:01:28 I can't be late for my audition.
00:01:30 [MUSIC]
00:01:59 Hi. Hello.
00:02:00 Tara Holmes. I'm here for the television host audition.
00:02:03 You want to take a seat over there? They'll be with you shortly.
00:02:05 Thank you. Thank you.
00:02:07 [MUSIC]
00:02:19 Hey Colleen. I'm just waiting to go in.
00:02:23 I saw your skin care launch.
00:02:25 Yes, I'm so excited.
00:02:27 What did you think?
00:02:28 Well, I'm hoping it will spark some interest in your TV host work.
00:02:32 Holmes Hand Care is going to be a big hit.
00:02:35 I can feel it.
00:02:37 Uh-huh.
00:02:38 You'll let me know how the audition goes?
00:02:40 Absolutely.
00:02:41 [MUSIC]
00:02:50 Hi Tara. What's new?
00:02:53 Oh, hi.
00:02:54 Hey. We meet again.
00:02:55 Fancy that.
00:02:57 Well, I'm not sure if you've heard, but today is the big day.
00:03:01 I'm debuting my new skin care line.
00:03:03 Oh, that's right. I think I heard something about that.
00:03:06 Cute.
00:03:07 How's it going with you?
00:03:09 Actually, I'm not supposed to talk about it yet.
00:03:11 We gave an exclusive interview to Entertainment Scoop.
00:03:14 They're airing it this afternoon.
00:03:16 [MUSIC]
00:03:18 If you promise not to tell Living Soul, I'll give you a hint.
00:03:21 [MUSIC]
00:03:23 Oh. Congratulations.
00:03:26 [MUSIC]
00:03:39 Finally, I have some alone time with both my daughters.
00:03:42 Mom, you saw me last month.
00:03:44 That was for my benefit, Rachel.
00:03:46 Some of us have been putting all their energies into launching a skin care line.
00:03:51 Products, website, posting. Being an influencer is a full-time job.
00:03:56 Okay, fine.
00:03:58 But Tara, what's happening with your on-camera TV work?
00:04:03 It's a little quiet at the moment.
00:04:07 So let me get this straight. You're not an on-air host anymore.
00:04:11 I'm auditioning. Meanwhile, I'm branching out.
00:04:14 Diversifying.
00:04:16 Ah, diversifying.
00:04:19 Explain.
00:04:20 Mom, she's not on trial here.
00:04:23 So, does branching out also mean possibly going on a date?
00:04:29 No. It means raising my social media profile, Mom.
00:04:33 I don't have time for men.
00:04:38 So, Rachel, how does it feel now making partner?
00:04:44 Good.
00:04:46 Yeah, I've just yet to find the guidebook on being a boss and raising two kids.
00:04:51 I wrote that guidebook.
00:04:54 I'll mail it to you.
00:04:56 I'm proud of you.
00:05:02 You look like you just lost the case of the century.
00:05:05 My agent.
00:05:08 They liked my audition, but said they were looking for someone with a bigger social media profile.
00:05:13 In other words, it's Annie Moore. She got the gig.
00:05:19 Again.
00:05:21 Something's going to come up. I know it.
00:05:24 Check your skin care line.
00:05:26 Maybe if it's flying off the shelves, you can tell them that your profile is bigger.
00:05:30 Right.
00:05:35 Oh, great.
00:05:36 What? How much have you sold?
00:05:39 You must know.
00:05:42 Three.
00:05:44 And making matters worse, my biggest rival just got 700 likes on her engagement announcement.
00:05:51 Kind of hard to compete with that.
00:05:55 All right, I think we're all caught up now.
00:05:59 I have an appointment.
00:06:02 I have to get back to work.
00:06:04 Go. I just need a minute to finish drowning in my sorrows.
00:06:08 Well, at least you still have your sense of humor.
00:06:10 Bye, sweetie.
00:06:11 See you later.
00:06:21 Unknown caller.
00:06:23 I wonder who this could be.
00:06:28 Hello, Tara speaking.
00:06:30 Hi, this is Nadia Rose.
00:06:32 I'm one of the producers from Happily Ever After.
00:06:34 Is now a good time to talk?
00:06:36 Um, I guess.
00:06:38 Awesome. I'm off to my next meeting, so I'll cut to the chase.
00:06:42 If you've never seen Happily Ever After, where we get two singletons together who've never met one another.
00:06:48 To marry?
00:06:49 Exactly.
00:06:50 You tuned in.
00:06:51 Me and my team, we've been watching you for a while.
00:06:53 We think you'll be perfect for us.
00:06:55 Wow.
00:06:57 To host the show?
00:06:58 Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:07:00 No, we're doing a celebrity version of the show.
00:07:02 We want you to be a contestant.
00:07:06 Tara?
00:07:08 Are you there?
00:07:10 I am, yes.
00:07:13 Okay. Um, what do you think?
00:07:15 I kind of think I'm interested.
00:07:18 You kind of think or you kind of know?
00:07:21 Between me and you, it's a first-come, first-served approach over here.
00:07:25 I need to run it by my agent first.
00:07:28 How do you think we got your number?
00:07:30 She said it's your call.
00:07:32 So, do you want to get married?
00:07:36 I--I do.
00:07:42 And now, it gives me great pleasure to present the first-ever celebrity contestant of Happily Ever After.
00:07:49 Please welcome our bride-to-be, Miss Tara Holmes.
00:07:59 Who knew love could be this simple?
00:08:23 300 units sold?
00:08:30 Tell me this is a joke.
00:08:32 This is a joke, right?
00:08:33 I really think we should hear her out first.
00:08:35 This makes a complete mockery of marriage.
00:08:38 You get that, right?
00:08:39 It's not a joke.
00:08:41 I know what I'm doing.
00:08:42 Whatever other male celebrity they've roped into the show will be in it for the same reasons as me to boost their brand.
00:08:48 Then--
00:08:49 This is ridiculous.
00:08:51 I have raised you better.
00:08:54 Wow.
00:08:56 Tell me what you really think.
00:08:58 I think you need to get control of your life.
00:09:03 Can't we talk this out first?
00:09:09 Well, that went well.
00:09:10 She's just in shock.
00:09:12 Although, I've got to say, it's a bold move.
00:09:16 Thanks.
00:09:18 If I need a divorce lawyer, I'll know where to find one.
00:09:35 So, how many serious relationships have you had?
00:09:39 Uh, one or two.
00:09:43 Okay.
00:09:44 And how long did they last?
00:09:45 The first one was about a year.
00:09:48 He just couldn't commit.
00:09:49 And the second one, he just, well, ghosted me.
00:09:55 Shall we say one?
00:09:57 Yes.
00:10:05 New intern.
00:10:28 Mr. Wright's not a celebrity.
00:10:46 Rachel said I should hear out your case.
00:10:49 Spoken like a true lawyer.
00:10:55 The thing that I am most uncomfortable with is you marrying someone that you've never even met.
00:11:02 Don't you find that immoral?
00:11:03 It's just for show.
00:11:05 It's the best way for me to accelerate my career right now, Mom.
00:11:10 Raise my public profile like everyone keeps saying for the TV hosting jobs.
00:11:14 So, it's about attention.
00:11:18 Your father, he always told me I didn't give you enough freedom as a child.
00:11:23 I should have let you audition for those school plays, but I just wanted you to focus on your studies.
00:11:28 Mom, this isn't some revenge for you not letting me play Annie when I was nine.
00:11:33 It's an awful lot to take in.
00:11:36 Well, what about a compromise?
00:11:40 I'm not thrilled about this being my only option either.
00:11:44 Go on.
00:11:45 I have his address.
00:11:47 I could track him down and explain everything.
00:11:50 If you're not on board, I'll make up an excuse and leave the show for good.
00:11:55 What do you think?
00:11:59 [♪♪♪]
00:12:03 [TEXT MESSAGE ALERT]
00:12:06 [TEXT MESSAGE ALERT]
00:12:10 [♪♪♪]
00:12:13 [♪♪♪]
00:12:17 [♪♪♪]
00:12:45 [♪♪♪]
00:12:47 Hi there, Joe!
00:12:49 [SCREAMS]
00:12:50 Oh my gosh.
00:12:52 Uh, okay. I got you.
00:12:55 You okay?
00:12:56 Yes. I must have tripped.
00:13:00 Who are you?
00:13:01 I'm the woman of your dreams.
00:13:04 Apparently.
00:13:06 What?
00:13:07 Tara Holmes?
00:13:09 That's right.
00:13:10 Happily ever after?
00:13:11 Yep.
00:13:12 Can someone explain to me what's going on?
00:13:14 You're getting married!
00:13:15 I'm pretty sure we're not.
00:13:19 So you haven't signed up for a TV show?
00:13:21 No. I don't watch TV.
00:13:22 Seriously?
00:13:23 Seriously.
00:13:25 Seriously.
00:13:27 But I know someone that does.
00:13:28 Guilty as charged.
00:13:30 [♪♪♪]
00:13:33 What's the deal with the hat?
00:13:38 I can't let anyone recognize me.
00:13:40 We're not supposed to know each other.
00:13:43 So, this happily forever...
00:13:45 Happily ever after.
00:13:47 Right. But you understand the concept?
00:13:50 Two losers who can't find love and haven't met Mary for the sake of entertainment?
00:13:54 Not exactly, but this is the celebrity edition.
00:13:58 Really? Who's the celebrity?
00:14:00 She is.
00:14:02 Oh. What do you do?
00:14:04 I'm a TV host. I also work as an influencer.
00:14:07 Although one day, I'd love to act.
00:14:11 Excuse my dad. He doesn't get out much.
00:14:14 My daughter can't help herself.
00:14:16 Look, I'm sorry about this. Let me get the bill.
00:14:19 The good news is, we're on the same page.
00:14:21 I don't actually want to get married, but I have a proposal.
00:14:26 You've totally lost me.
00:14:28 When I managed to find the details of who I'd be matched with...
00:14:31 Me?
00:14:32 Yep. I thought they were setting me up with another celebrity.
00:14:35 Which I'm very much not.
00:14:37 That's for sure.
00:14:38 But I hoped Mr. Celebrity and I might raise our profiles together,
00:14:42 wait for the big offers to come in, then consciously uncouple later on.
00:14:46 Oh, no. I don't even enjoy public speaking for work.
00:14:50 Besides, we've already broken the rules.
00:14:53 All right. Here we go.
00:14:56 There's a face I didn't expect to see in this neck of the woods.
00:14:59 How long's it been?
00:15:01 You know what it's like for us working dads, Ben. How are you?
00:15:03 Good. Great to see you back.
00:15:05 My daughter Charlotte tells me Quinn is in the running for class president.
00:15:09 She's right.
00:15:10 That's so cool.
00:15:12 And I don't think we've met.
00:15:14 This is my cousin. She's from out of town, visiting for work.
00:15:17 That's awesome. What is it that you do?
00:15:19 She's, um...
00:15:22 She's a singer. She's on vocal rest.
00:15:26 Doctor's orders. Sorry.
00:15:29 That's no problem. Anyway, I didn't mean to interrupt.
00:15:32 Joe, it'd be nice to see you back once in a while.
00:15:35 Absolutely. Can we get the check?
00:15:38 It's on the house, bud.
00:15:39 Thanks.
00:15:42 Look, Iris, we should be heading off.
00:15:45 I'm sorry about this mix-up and that you traveled all this way for nothing.
00:15:49 I... I...
00:15:53 I can help Quinn out with her class president campaign. I know how to work an audience.
00:15:57 I'm sure I could help her win the vote at school.
00:15:59 Now that's an idea.
00:16:01 It just depends on how important her studies are to you.
00:16:06 That's Nadia calling you. She's the producer at Happily Ever After.
00:16:10 Do we have a deal?
00:16:12 Dad, this can help me win.
00:16:15 I... I could play along until you figure out another option.
00:16:20 But the actual wedding, live to millions? No. No way.
00:16:25 I can agree to that.
00:16:33 You're welcome.
00:16:35 So what do you think the odds are of this lasting longer than a week?
00:16:38 Mm-mm. Slim.
00:16:41 He likes you to stay on top of your homework? I know that feeling.
00:16:45 Your dad was the same?
00:16:46 No. My mom.
00:16:48 I know that's because he cares.
00:16:51 Oh, he's coming quick. I'm busy.
00:16:56 I'm sorry to disappoint you.
00:16:58 I knew it.
00:17:01 I told them I'm in.
00:17:03 But I reserve the right to back out at any time.
00:17:07 You won't regret it.
00:17:18 I love your kitchen.
00:17:21 Thank you.
00:17:22 So, here are some ideas that Quinn put together for her campaign.
00:17:26 I'll take a look at it tonight.
00:17:28 Well, we'll see you tomorrow.
00:17:30 And try to be on time.
00:17:33 I will.
00:17:37 Shoot.
00:17:39 I can't believe I forgot.
00:17:41 What, did you forget an audition or something?
00:17:43 No, I need to post to my followers.
00:17:45 Right now?
00:17:46 Yes, now. It's a prime time show.
00:17:48 What's prime time?
00:17:49 Between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m.
00:17:52 Got it.
00:17:53 Here, hold this. Right there.
00:17:54 Okay.
00:17:55 Okay.
00:17:56 Hey, hey.
00:17:58 Holmes Hand Care is going live.
00:18:01 Click the link in my bio.
00:18:02 And get your hands on the best new skin care products money can buy.
00:18:07 Who are you talking to? Are you having a breakdown?
00:18:09 It's called rehearsal. It's what I'll be teaching Quinn all about tomorrow.
00:18:14 Can't wait.
00:18:15 Look, I don't need you standing there judging me.
00:18:18 And I need to find some good light.
00:18:21 So, I will see you tomorrow.
00:18:27 See you tomorrow.
00:18:30 Wow.
00:18:31 [♪♪♪]
00:19:00 Hi, Rachel. What's up?
00:19:02 How's the road trip to romance?
00:19:05 It's not a road trip.
00:19:07 Besides, I've already reached my destination.
00:19:10 And?
00:19:11 He's nice enough.
00:19:12 But the real news is he's on board to do the show.
00:19:16 Score.
00:19:17 You won your case.
00:19:19 So, you coming home?
00:19:20 I've got a few things to tie up first.
00:19:24 Why do I get the impression that you're hiding something?
00:19:27 I want a full confession.
00:19:29 He's taking part.
00:19:30 The bad news is I'm now tutoring his daughter.
00:19:34 Tutoring her in what? Lying and deceiving?
00:19:36 No. Public speaking.
00:19:39 She has her class president speech next week.
00:19:42 Uh-huh.
00:19:43 And does mom know he's got a kid?
00:19:45 I was hoping you might tell her.
00:19:49 Wow.
00:19:50 I won't be home for a while.
00:19:52 So, by the time I'm back, she'll have calmed down.
00:19:56 To be honest, there's a lot of photographers in your apartment lobby right now,
00:20:00 so you'd have trouble getting back in.
00:20:03 So, you'll tell her?
00:20:07 I'll think about it.
00:20:09 Thank you.
00:20:10 Okay, I gotta run.
00:20:12 Love you.
00:20:13 Love you.
00:20:15 [music]
00:20:31 Yep.
00:20:35 You're late.
00:20:36 Morning! I'm good. Thanks for asking.
00:20:39 You know we have a tutoring schedule, right?
00:20:42 Do you always run such a tight ship?
00:20:45 I do.
00:20:46 Hey! That's what you'll be saying on our big wedding day.
00:20:49 You're funny.
00:20:51 Kids need a routine.
00:20:53 Joe, I'd love to stay and chat, but you're gonna make me late.
00:20:56 You are late.
00:20:57 Joe?
00:20:58 Yeah?
00:20:59 Quinn's only ten. She's not applying for college yet.
00:21:08 Which is why you should vote for me, Quinn Wright, for class president.
00:21:11 Thank you for listening.
00:21:13 [applause]
00:21:15 That was good, honey. I'd vote for you.
00:21:17 A really great start.
00:21:19 You think?
00:21:20 Right now the pace needs a little work, but I've got every confidence you'll ace this.
00:21:25 I hope so.
00:21:29 Oh, I love that nymph.
00:21:31 I love all things fantasy.
00:21:35 Why don't I get started on lunch? How about soup?
00:21:38 Actually, I have another idea.
00:21:41 I know this cute little place in the village. I used to go there when I was a kid.
00:21:45 They have crayons at every table.
00:21:47 You're not talking about Green Ivy.
00:21:49 You know it?
00:21:50 Know it? Who doesn't?
00:21:52 Dad, can we go?
00:21:54 You're forgetting we can't be seen in public.
00:21:57 Hmm.
00:22:01 Do I see wigs in there?
00:22:03 And a whole lot more.
00:22:08 Alright, we can't stay too long, alright? There's a lot to be done when we get home, so...
00:22:12 Did you finish your theater project?
00:22:14 It's still a work in progress.
00:22:16 You know, theater was my favorite subject at school. I loved to act.
00:22:21 So, then why didn't you become an actress?
00:22:25 My mom insisted I join the debate club.
00:22:28 That's where you got into public speaking.
00:22:30 You'd be persuasive.
00:22:32 I know where this is going.
00:22:35 I didn't say anything.
00:22:37 That's not what you said, it's how you said it.
00:22:40 You think I'll cave? Think again.
00:22:49 I need the restroom.
00:22:51 Of course, honey.
00:22:58 Well, that's just perfect.
00:23:01 What's up?
00:23:02 My mom.
00:23:04 She's wound very tightly when it comes to matters regarding my career choices.
00:23:08 Let me guess, she's not thrilled about you doing the show?
00:23:13 Bingo.
00:23:15 Sorry to hear that.
00:23:17 Oh, don't be. I gave up seeking her approval years ago.
00:23:20 You two aren't close?
00:23:22 It's... complicated.
00:23:26 My sister was always the golden child. Partnered her firm, steady, a real job.
00:23:34 I always felt like a disappointment in comparison.
00:23:40 You should try to work it out.
00:23:42 You think I haven't tried that?
00:23:48 Do you know what that one is?
00:23:50 Sure I do. It's a very elegant flower.
00:23:55 It is? It's hydrangea.
00:24:01 When I read you were a conservation scientist, I was thinking you'd be more hard hats and less...
00:24:08 Hippie flower guy?
00:24:14 Oh my god.
00:24:20 What's going on?
00:24:23 I'm back.
00:24:27 Thank you.
00:24:30 I mean, it's such a sell out move.
00:24:32 You've got nothing to worry about.
00:24:34 You sure?
00:24:35 Yeah, come on.
00:24:37 Tara Holmes would do anything to grab a few headlines.
00:24:39 Tara Holmes? Come on. More like Tara who?
00:24:43 Um, excuse me, that's not very nice.
00:24:50 Sorry. Hi. Um, I'm a huge fan.
00:24:55 I wanted to ask for an autograph.
00:24:59 I'm actually off the clock, so sorry to disappoint, but that's a no, I'm afraid.
00:25:05 Perfect.
00:25:07 Sorry?
00:25:08 I mean, oh no, so sad.
00:25:11 Are you making fun of me?
00:25:13 No, I'm not.
00:25:14 Matt, is he making fun of me?
00:25:16 Why can't people just let me live my life in peace?
00:25:18 He's just overwhelmed to be in the presence of such a star.
00:25:25 Thanks for an awesome time.
00:25:27 Good luck on your theater project.
00:25:32 Today was fun. See you tomorrow?
00:25:35 Tara, you might have had a good time today, but I didn't.
00:25:39 I'm not sure if I'm cut out for the sneaking around stuff.
00:25:42 Well, Quinn enjoyed herself. I mean, surely that's what counts.
00:25:46 I just, I don't like the idea of her getting caught up in all this drama, Tara.
00:25:50 It was a one in a million chance. How was I to know Annie Moore would be stopping by?
00:25:55 I don't even know who Annie Moore is.
00:25:57 Good. The fewer followers she has, the better.
00:26:02 Alright.
00:26:04 After you.
00:26:06 Bye.
00:26:07 Bye.
00:26:09 [door slams]
00:26:11 Wow, twice in a week, huh?
00:26:23 Yeah, just doing my part to support local business.
00:26:25 I'm here. I thought you were stocking up for that extra mouth to feed.
00:26:29 What?
00:26:30 Your cousin, the singer.
00:26:32 Oh, yeah. Yeah.
00:26:35 It's good to see you and Quinn back around town, enjoying yourselves.
00:26:38 Yeah, you know, we had fun.
00:26:40 Yeah, those last few years could not have been easy.
00:26:43 Well, haven't exactly been hiding.
00:26:46 You've done an awesome job with this place.
00:26:49 Thanks, man. It means a lot.
00:26:51 Well, I've got to get back to Quinn. She's got a lot of homework.
00:26:55 And a campaign to run.
00:26:57 Yeah, she's competitive. She wants to win this election.
00:27:01 Good luck with that.
00:27:02 Oh, and Joe.
00:27:04 Give my best to your, um, cousin.
00:27:07 [footsteps]
00:27:36 Good morning.
00:27:38 How can I help you today?
00:27:41 Oh, um, I was wondering, is there any other exit to leave this hotel?
00:27:46 I'm afraid not.
00:27:47 Oh, that's great.
00:27:49 This is the visitor's entrance and exit. Is there a problem?
00:27:53 [car engine]
00:27:56 Is there anything else I can help you with?
00:28:02 Um, actually, no. I'll handle it myself.
00:28:07 [footsteps]
00:28:10 [car engine]
00:28:13 [music]
00:28:41 Mind taking the trash out?
00:28:43 Funny.
00:28:45 It's an interesting look for you.
00:28:48 I had no other choice.
00:28:52 Photographers were gathering like vultures.
00:28:55 Someone in the areas tipped them off that I'm here.
00:28:59 Maybe another celebrity influencer was staying at your hotel.
00:29:02 I can't go back to my apartment. They're in the lobby. They're everywhere.
00:29:06 I'm sure you're going to figure out a solution.
00:29:08 Sorry to break it to you, but this charade might be over quicker than we thought.
00:29:12 There are no other options in town. Everything's fully booked.
00:29:15 What about the guest house?
00:29:18 Um, I don't think...
00:29:22 You can hide your car in the garage.
00:29:25 You're welcome to stay if it means you'll stop with the silly disguises.
00:29:32 And I guess it'd make my life easier, Gwen.
00:29:37 Thank you.
00:29:39 So you're going to stay in that outfit, or...?
00:29:41 [phone vibrates]
00:29:43 [sighs]
00:29:45 Hi, Mom.
00:29:50 Tara, I'll get right to the point.
00:29:52 Rachel tells me that this stranger you plan on marrying has a daughter.
00:29:57 That's right, Mom. Her name is Quinn. She's a very smart ten-year-old.
00:30:02 I'm tutoring her.
00:30:04 I hope that you are thinking about the long-term ramifications of your actions.
00:30:11 People can get hurt.
00:30:13 I hear you, Mom, loud and clear. I've got everything under control.
00:30:18 Just do the right thing.
00:30:22 Bye, Mom.
00:30:25 [door opens]
00:30:27 [door closes]
00:30:29 [music]
00:30:52 Ready to turn over a new leaf?
00:30:55 [knock on door]
00:30:57 Come in.
00:30:59 Figured you could use some fresh towels.
00:31:01 Thanks.
00:31:03 What's on the menu?
00:31:05 Oh. I'm back cooking spaghetti. Again.
00:31:09 It's pretty much the only thing I know how to cook.
00:31:12 Are you okay? You seem... I don't know, distracted?
00:31:18 Sorry. I'm fine. I just got off the phone with my mom.
00:31:23 How'd it go?
00:31:25 No comment.
00:31:26 That bad, huh?
00:31:28 She'll get over it.
00:31:30 What does your dad think?
00:31:32 He passed, actually, last year.
00:31:39 But I'm sure he would have gotten her to see the bright side of things.
00:31:47 I'm sorry, Tara. I shouldn't have assumed.
00:31:50 No. It's okay. I like talking about him.
00:31:55 He was my biggest cheerleader.
00:31:58 You two were close?
00:31:59 My sister was more of a mama's girl. I was more of a daddy's girl.
00:32:05 But he used to run this cute little Italian place.
00:32:08 Remind me not to offer you any of tonight's spaghetti, then.
00:32:11 Actually, it was his grilled cheese that was legendary.
00:32:15 Is that so?
00:32:16 When he'd pick us up after school, he'd put me and Rachel in a little booth at the restaurant and make us a grilled cheese.
00:32:23 Some nights, we got to skip homework.
00:32:25 Oh, a rebel.
00:32:27 I miss him.
00:32:31 Yeah, I can imagine.
00:32:33 What was her name?
00:32:37 Cassie. Cas.
00:32:39 Quinn looks just like her.
00:32:43 Which is a blessing because no one wants these tiny ears.
00:32:48 There's nothing wrong with your ears.
00:32:51 I don't think Quinn remembers much.
00:32:58 She doesn't remember the bad bits, anyway.
00:33:01 But she does mention her from time to time.
00:33:04 That's important.
00:33:06 She's a great kid, Joe.
00:33:10 Yeah, she really is.
00:33:13 Well, I better get started on the spaghetti.
00:33:17 Okay.
00:33:18 You don't get bored cooking the same thing over and over?
00:33:23 I'm a single dad, Tara. I don't get loads of time to be spontaneous.
00:33:28 Open or closed?
00:33:30 Open's fine.
00:33:33 [music]
00:33:35 Odd. Delivery guy just dropped this off.
00:33:47 Oh, really?
00:33:50 Carrot cake?
00:33:57 Your favorite.
00:33:58 Who told you?
00:34:00 I can't reveal my sources.
00:34:02 Oh, that. That is good.
00:34:06 Hold there, buddy.
00:34:07 What?
00:34:08 Don't mess it up yet. I've got to get this for my followers.
00:34:12 I thought this was my cake.
00:34:14 It is. In three, two, one.
00:34:18 What's fun about documenting every second of your life on social media?
00:34:22 It's about building a brand.
00:34:24 And giving your wrists carpal tunnel?
00:34:27 How about you stuff your cake hole?
00:34:30 It's the producer of the wedding show.
00:34:38 What?
00:34:40 What did she say?
00:34:42 Hi, soon-to-be newlyweds.
00:34:45 Before the big day arrives, the team at Happily Ever After would like both of you to record selfie videos in picturesque locations.
00:34:54 Awesome.
00:34:56 Oh, I got the same text.
00:34:58 But wait, there's more.
00:35:00 Answering the question, "What do you look for in an ideal partner?"
00:35:05 Seriously?
00:35:06 Oh, come on. You just need to play along. It'll be fun.
00:35:10 Fun? I don't know. I mean, it seems a little real.
00:35:13 But we can make it fun.
00:35:15 And I solemnly swear that if you do decide to back out of the show at any point,
00:35:20 I will be the only one to leak the footage of you declaring what you look for in true love.
00:35:26 I get to pick the places to shoot.
00:35:29 Easy.
00:35:31 Just you wait.
00:35:34 [Sizzling]
00:35:36 [Music]
00:35:46 Oh, gee, I hope you brought your hiking boots.
00:35:57 Houston, we have a problem.
00:36:02 No, we don't.
00:36:04 Oh, wow. These are... interesting.
00:36:29 This is one of my favorite spots.
00:36:32 Are we there yet?
00:36:35 Just a little further. In this tree. In front of this dock.
00:36:39 I'm gonna be all sweaty for the self-tape.
00:36:42 It'll be fine.
00:36:43 This is so gorgeous.
00:36:53 Recognize that?
00:36:58 The ground? Yeah.
00:37:01 I've been staring at it for the past 30 minutes.
00:37:03 No, the hydrangea.
00:37:05 Oh, yeah. From the restaurant.
00:37:10 Yeah. See how it thrives under this tree?
00:37:12 Exposure to too much light isn't good for it.
00:37:15 It's a flower that needs light and shade to survive.
00:37:19 Does it also need water? Because I could really use a drink right now.
00:37:24 [Sighs]
00:37:25 Here.
00:37:30 Thanks.
00:37:44 This was for both of us.
00:37:53 [Phone vibrates]
00:37:54 It's my sister. Give me a sec.
00:37:56 Hey! I just got a call from a reporter.
00:38:00 Oh?
00:38:01 Yeah, they asked me if I knew who the serious man you've been seen with is.
00:38:04 What?
00:38:05 They're definitely closing in on you now.
00:38:07 Well, what did you say?
00:38:09 What you always tell me to say. No comment.
00:38:11 Okay, good.
00:38:12 And Mom called a third time. She is adamant that you reconsider this wedding, especially now that there is a child involved.
00:38:19 Rachel, I've been over this with her already!
00:38:21 Okay, do not shoot the messenger. I just have a feeling she's not going to back down, even if your skin care sales are through the roof.
00:38:27 Um, look, I can't talk now. I'm on a hike.
00:38:31 Sorry. For a second I thought that my sister, Tara Holmes, Miss Can't-Walk-To-The-Store-To-Get-Milk, just said she's on a hike.
00:38:39 I am.
00:38:41 What's the view like?
00:38:44 Better than expected.
00:38:50 So, what should I tell Mom?
00:38:52 Tara, what was the question?
00:38:56 Never mind. I have a case to close. Bye.
00:39:01 It's so peaceful out here. But the phone's ringing off the hook.
00:39:19 Hello?
00:39:20 Hey, Joe. It's Ben. Hey, I was wondering if Quinn would be interested in a playdate with Charlotte.
00:39:26 Ben, sorry. Didn't recognize the number.
00:39:29 Uh, yeah, sure. Quinn would love that. Let me just check with her and get back to you in a bit, alright?
00:39:36 Okay. Sounds great. Talk soon, okay? Bye.
00:39:39 Bye.
00:39:40 Now what?
00:39:44 Oh my gosh!
00:39:47 What? You win the lottery?
00:39:49 No, better! Bride Weekly wants me for a photo shoot!
00:39:53 I don't know what that means.
00:39:54 It means I'm back in fashion.
00:39:57 And that is why I would greatly appreciate your vote for this year's class president. Thank you.
00:40:11 What do you think?
00:40:15 I think you should answer that.
00:40:17 I improved?
00:40:19 It was way stronger. Can you feel it? Okay, and here's why. So...
00:40:24 I'll get it.
00:40:25 No, wait a minute. You stay here.
00:40:39 That's it.
00:40:40 Um...
00:40:41 Bypass the front door. This way.
00:40:43 Joe! So good to see you. Don't worry, this won't take long.
00:40:47 What's all this?
00:40:48 This little impromptu chat. You've seen this on the show before, right?
00:40:51 Uh, no, I must have missed this.
00:40:53 It'll be an hour. Two tops.
00:40:55 Okay, um, I'll go get refreshments for everyone.
00:40:59 Okay.
00:41:00 Okay, you guys. Don't touch anything that... Yeah. Clear the space out right here. Great.
00:41:08 [sighs]
00:41:09 How could this part of the show have slipped your mind?
00:41:15 I'll be honest. I've never watched a full episode.
00:41:18 You gotta be kidding me. Look, I'm not spending two hours having my home be turned into some film set.
00:41:23 Joe! Where are you?
00:41:25 You know I'm not thrilled about some of this decor.
00:41:29 Oh, is that right?
00:41:30 Yeah, we're moving some things around to accommodate the camera and the lighting equipment.
00:41:33 Oh, well. Just make yourself at home.
00:41:35 Okay. I'll send my order. Thanks.
00:41:37 Okay.
00:41:38 Did you hear that? That's it. Okay, I'm going out there right now and I'm gonna stop this whole thing.
00:41:44 Come on. You've come way too far to throw it all away now. And Quinn's really getting into her stride.
00:41:49 Oh, that's not fair. You can't leverage my daughter to keep this thing going.
00:41:52 Don't be ridiculous. Your daughter's the one who got you involved in this.
00:41:56 Oh, okay. See?
00:41:57 She'll be heartbroken.
00:41:58 Are you willing to sit in that room for the next two hours?
00:42:01 If I have to. Yes. You and I both know Quinn's improving every day.
00:42:07 Okay, you're right. You're in.
00:42:11 I'm always right.
00:42:12 Just go in the room. I have an idea.
00:42:15 Okay.
00:42:16 Just go in.
00:42:17 Okay.
00:42:18 Just make sure you go.
00:42:29 Hey, sweetie.
00:42:31 Okay.
00:42:37 How long is this gonna take?
00:42:40 A couple of hours, sweetie.
00:42:42 That's gonna be past my bedtime.
00:42:44 You're right. This isn't gonna work, is it?
00:42:47 It's not. And this is the time that Dad helps me with my homework.
00:42:50 I know, sweetie. I just lost track of time.
00:42:52 We have to do homework now.
00:42:54 Okay. She's the boss.
00:42:56 Well, I can tell you what's gonna happen right now.
00:42:59 Your dad is gonna sit himself on this chair.
00:43:02 We have a show to do.
00:43:04 The crew can't come back tomorrow?
00:43:06 You gotta real go get her there.
00:43:08 A girl that knows what she wants.
00:43:10 Sorry, sweetie. We're on schedule.
00:43:12 You can go right over there for now.
00:43:14 Sit down. Sit down.
00:43:18 Okay.
00:43:20 [phone buzzing]
00:43:22 Hello?
00:43:32 Oh, good. I'm glad you answered, Tara.
00:43:34 No, I can't talk right now.
00:43:36 You always say that. Why are you whispering?
00:43:38 Just don't ask.
00:43:40 I've given it a lot of thought, and I'm sorry,
00:43:44 but I cannot agree to this wedding.
00:43:47 We don't even know if it's happening yet.
00:43:49 Well, if it does, I won't be there.
00:43:52 Fine. Whatever. I can't talk right now.
00:43:54 All right, I gotta go. Bye.
00:43:56 Okay.
00:43:57 So, tell me, what are you looking for from a marriage?
00:44:04 Um...
00:44:06 Someone who's a planner, an organizer.
00:44:09 Mm-hmm.
00:44:10 Someone who can fit in with my family setup.
00:44:13 That's a good start, Joe.
00:44:16 We're looking for something a little bit more romantic.
00:44:20 Can you dig deeper?
00:44:22 Um...
00:44:27 I'm a single dad,
00:44:30 so when it comes to marriage,
00:44:32 I'm looking for someone who can build on what I've already got.
00:44:37 I really only want the best for the ones that I love.
00:44:41 Um...
00:44:42 I'd really like to find someone to spend time with in the great outdoors.
00:44:48 Someone to inject a little more adventure in my life.
00:44:53 It's been a while since I really, um...
00:44:56 Go-- Go on.
00:44:59 It's been a while since I really...
00:45:02 Really...
00:45:03 Really, I'd like, um, just a glass of water, please.
00:45:07 Sorry.
00:45:08 Can someone get us some water?
00:45:10 I don't know. My daughter can do it.
00:45:13 Please, God.
00:45:15 What's taking so long?
00:45:23 [alarm blaring]
00:45:27 Someone turn off that infernal alarm!
00:45:30 I would, but, you know, the same thing happened last week.
00:45:33 It took a security company, like, what, an hour to get here to fix it, so...
00:45:37 For now, we'll just pick up anything we miss next week.
00:45:40 Go turn off the alarm. I'll go find Tara.
00:45:48 Okay.
00:45:50 [music]
00:45:54 She's not in here?
00:46:10 Nope. Looks like she snuck out and went back to the guest house.
00:46:14 You have got some homework to do, for real, all right?
00:46:18 And by the way, you did a great job tonight.
00:46:21 Thanks, Dad.
00:46:23 [cell phone buzzing]
00:46:33 Ben.
00:46:34 Hey. Sorry to be a squeaky wheel, but Charlotte keeps bugging me about that playdate with Quinn.
00:46:39 Any updates?
00:46:40 Yeah, sorry I meant to get back to you about that.
00:46:42 Um, this week has been a little crazy.
00:46:45 How about, um, next weekend?
00:46:48 Okay. Cool. Um, hope things clear up for you soon.
00:46:52 Yeah. Me too. Uh, bye.
00:46:56 [sigh]
00:47:02 [music]
00:47:09 Tara? You, uh, in here?
00:47:11 Hey, yeah. Come on in.
00:47:15 Just, uh, want to make sure you're okay.
00:47:17 Yes. I'm fine. I'm sorry about all this. Again.
00:47:22 It's okay. We handled it.
00:47:24 I'll make it up to you. How about I make pancakes for breakfast?
00:47:28 Deal.
00:47:42 Does turning over a new leaf include breaking the rules?
00:47:47 What would you like with your pancakes? Syrup? Strawberries? Or an apology?
00:48:06 The latter.
00:48:08 But you know, the pressure's on now. If your dad was a great cook, I'm expecting great things.
00:48:12 Hey. Just you wait.
00:48:15 I'll have strawberries.
00:48:17 Okay.
00:48:18 Tara, what's this?
00:48:31 Strawberries. It's what you asked for, right?
00:48:33 No, this.
00:48:36 Tara Holmes isn't home. Where's the missing bride-to-be? What?
00:48:43 It's everywhere! Where's my...
00:48:47 And my agent hasn't even called me? What?
00:48:54 Yeah. It makes me a little nervous.
00:48:56 But it's not you they're after.
00:48:59 Yeah, but when you're staying at my house, it makes it my business, right?
00:49:01 I need for all this to have a negative impact on Quinn, alright? A white lie here, a white lie there.
00:49:06 That's not how I raised her.
00:49:08 So, what are you saying, Joe?
00:49:12 I'm saying that deceiving people feels wrong, Tara.
00:49:15 Colleen, what's the latest?
00:49:27 Bride Weekly wants to do a photo shoot with you.
00:49:29 They want to try to squeeze you in today.
00:49:32 Today? Well, I'm not in the city. I'm in hiding.
00:49:36 How am I going to buy a wedding dress in the middle of nowhere?
00:49:39 Well, find someplace local. Get with the program.
00:49:42 Text me the address as soon as you find one.
00:49:45 Alright. Bye.
00:49:48 I see you.
00:49:55 I see you.
00:49:57 Little Miss Sneaky, huh?
00:50:03 Can I come pick out the wedding dress with you?
00:50:05 I think we need to run it by your dad first.
00:50:07 That way I'll get to meet your sister Rachel.
00:50:10 Oh. She isn't coming.
00:50:14 Why not?
00:50:15 She has to work.
00:50:18 Your mom?
00:50:20 It's complicated.
00:50:23 She isn't coming?
00:50:26 Sadly not.
00:50:29 If I was getting married, I'd want my mom to be there.
00:50:33 If she was still here.
00:50:36 You know, my favorite photo is the one in the guest house.
00:50:39 She looks beautiful.
00:50:42 You remember her?
00:50:46 A little.
00:50:48 What do you remember the most?
00:50:50 Moving here when I was a baby. The house was empty and it was just the three of us.
00:50:54 But what I remember the most was that dad was really happy.
00:50:58 I miss that.
00:51:01 I hope you're hungry.
00:51:03 Went for something a little different this time.
00:51:06 Grilled cheese! Yes!
00:51:08 I thought you might say that.
00:51:10 He never makes this.
00:51:12 Is that so?
00:51:14 Oh, breaking news. I need to buy my wedding dress today for the Bride Weekly shoot.
00:51:19 If I can find a place around here.
00:51:22 There's a nice place in the village.
00:51:24 And your daughter here wants to come to my dress fitting.
00:51:27 She has no one to go with her.
00:51:29 Ouch! The girl's not wrong.
00:51:31 Please?
00:51:47 So, the photographer won't be here for at least two hours.
00:51:51 Okay, Quinn, you can stay for an hour and see whatever it is you plan to see.
00:51:55 I'll park over there and take a nap, but then we have to go.
00:51:58 You've got to rehearse your campaign speech for tomorrow.
00:52:00 And Quinn, remember...
00:52:02 I can't tell anyone at school about this. It's a secret.
00:52:06 No one knows you and Tara know each other.
00:52:08 Dad, we've already been over this.
00:52:10 Okay, okay. I'll be right over there if anything comes up.
00:52:13 Can we please go already?
00:52:15 Yes.
00:52:17 Wow! You're beautiful! You're the perfect bride!
00:52:25 Aw, thanks!
00:52:27 But remember, Quinn, the wedding isn't happening.
00:52:30 This is just for my photo shoot.
00:52:32 I don't want you to get too excited.
00:52:35 [phone vibrates]
00:52:37 Let's see.
00:52:39 Rachel, I want you to meet somebody special.
00:52:44 Let's FaceTime.
00:52:46 Okay.
00:52:48 [phone rings]
00:52:50 This is my new friend Quinn.
00:52:54 Quinn, this is my sister Rachel.
00:52:56 Hello. It's nice to meet you, Quinn.
00:52:58 Nice to meet you.
00:53:00 I wish you were here to see how beautiful Tara is in her dress.
00:53:03 Well, why don't you take the phone and show me?
00:53:10 Ooh, Miss Tara Holmes! Or should I say Mrs.
00:53:14 She looks like a princess, right?
00:53:16 I feel like a princess.
00:53:18 You are a princess.
00:53:20 And thank you, Quinn, for taking such good care of my sister.
00:53:22 Today has been amazing.
00:53:24 Any chance I could see Tara Twirl before I go?
00:53:28 Woo!
00:53:32 Alright, sis, I gotta run.
00:53:35 But I'm so glad I could see this moment.
00:53:37 Thanks, ladies. Bye!
00:53:40 Bye!
00:53:41 Bye, Rachel!
00:53:44 [indistinct chatter]
00:53:47 [indistinct chatter]
00:53:49 [laughter]
00:53:53 [phone chimes]
00:53:57 [car engine]
00:54:06 [car horn]
00:54:16 [car engine]
00:54:18 So I really think this is the one!
00:54:21 I agree.
00:54:23 What are you doing in here? You're not supposed to see the bride in her dress!
00:54:26 Look, they caught us, alright?
00:54:27 The paparazzi are out front, so I pulled the car around back and slipped through the rear entrance.
00:54:30 Bye.
00:54:31 You go with your dad. I'll create a diversion.
00:54:33 Okay, go!
00:54:34 Come on, go, go, go, go!
00:54:36 [music]
00:54:39 [knocking]
00:54:41 Oh, hi! You're early!
00:54:48 Who knew love could be this simple?
00:54:51 [laughter]
00:54:53 That's great! You know, I think we've got it.
00:55:07 What? That was fast.
00:55:09 Final question for our readers.
00:55:11 What does love feel like?
00:55:14 Like...
00:55:16 coming home.
00:55:20 Sorry, you wanted more detail?
00:55:23 I can think of something. So...
00:55:25 No, we've got another shoot to get to.
00:55:28 Oh.
00:55:29 Any more?
00:55:31 Oh. Well, wait. Who's going to be on the cover?
00:55:35 I don't make those decisions.
00:55:37 They'll be in touch if you make the cut.
00:55:40 Anyway, we don't want to be late.
00:55:42 Ta-ta!
00:55:44 Tara's going to look so beautiful at the wedding.
00:55:55 You remember what our deal was, though, right, honey?
00:55:58 About not actually going through with the wedding.
00:56:04 Hey. Why doesn't it talk to me?
00:56:07 Is that really what you want to do? Pull out of the wedding?
00:56:11 [sigh]
00:56:13 You've had fun having Tara here, huh?
00:56:18 I just think everything feels better when we're laughing.
00:56:21 We laugh all the time.
00:56:23 It's different when Tara's with us, Dad.
00:56:26 We're happier. You're happier.
00:56:28 Happier than I've ever seen you.
00:56:31 [sigh]
00:56:33 [music]
00:56:35 Come in.
00:56:48 Hey.
00:56:52 You looked beautiful today.
00:56:59 Thanks.
00:57:01 And thanks for being the best getaway driver a girl could ever ask for.
00:57:06 You're welcome.
00:57:08 I'm sorry for how things turned out.
00:57:13 All I wanted to do was give Quinn a day she wouldn't forget.
00:57:17 Well, you achieved your goal.
00:57:20 Quinn's on cloud nine fast asleep.
00:57:23 We shopped till we dropped.
00:57:26 I've certainly brought some extra drama to the wedding.
00:57:30 Did you bring some extra drama to your lives these past two weeks?
00:57:34 No comment.
00:57:36 Did you learn that reply from me?
00:57:38 Yeah, I did.
00:57:40 [laugh]
00:57:42 It's been a long time since I've been on new adventures.
00:57:49 Noted.
00:57:58 Anyway, um, I figured I'd make sure that Quinn's not pretending to be asleep.
00:58:03 She likes to read under the covers when I go to bed.
00:58:05 She needs all her rest for the big election tomorrow.
00:58:08 Tomorrow is a very big day for her.
00:58:11 It is.
00:58:13 Goodnight, Tara.
00:58:16 Night, Joe.
00:58:19 [door opens]
00:58:21 And that is why I think you should pick me, Quinn Wright, for class president.
00:58:34 What's wrong?
00:58:37 Nothing.
00:58:38 No, it's perfect.
00:58:39 Seriously?
00:58:40 There's just one final thing you need.
00:58:43 It's actually the most important of all.
00:58:45 What is it?
00:58:46 It's a big one. I hope you're listening.
00:58:49 You ready?
00:58:51 Believe in yourself.
00:58:54 There's not a nervous bone in her body.
00:58:56 Not now, but when you get up there in front of your class, it feels different.
00:59:02 Believe me, I know.
00:59:05 You're gonna be fine, right?
00:59:07 I hope so.
00:59:08 You know so.
00:59:10 But what if I do get nervous?
00:59:14 You just take a breath, and then you imagine it's only us two watching you, okay?
00:59:22 You've got this, alright?
00:59:28 Okay, let's get going before you're late.
00:59:37 Bye, Tara. Thanks again.
00:59:39 Bye.
00:59:40 Good job.
00:59:42 Thanks.
00:59:44 Who sent this?
00:59:57 Tara Holmes, lover or liar.
01:00:03 Oh no!
01:00:04 How did they get this photo?
01:00:08 [gasp]
01:00:09 You're just in time to celebrate! I did it!
01:00:31 I'm not sure if giving you more sugar is the best idea right now.
01:00:35 I'm proud of you!
01:00:37 Joe, have you got a sec?
01:00:40 No, we're kind of in the middle of something here.
01:00:42 You're right. Sorry.
01:00:45 Honey, why don't you take over?
01:00:52 I'm a little chilly. I just need to grab a sweater.
01:00:58 And I need to go check someone.
01:01:04 Or for me.
01:01:06 How did they even get this photo?
01:01:08 I don't know for certain, but I know Annie Moore's got something to do with it.
01:01:12 What did you ever do to her?
01:01:14 Nothing. I launched my skincare line on the day of her engagement announcement,
01:01:19 but I didn't know she was getting engaged. Besides, I launched my thing first.
01:01:24 You sound like you're in kindergarten. This is all starting to feel very real.
01:01:29 Joe, this is my very real life.
01:01:33 And you enjoy it?
01:01:35 I don't have much choice, do I?
01:01:38 What?
01:01:42 Don't freak out, but...
01:01:44 Not the best way to make a person not freak out.
01:01:47 Is this show really something you want to be a part of?
01:01:53 Who wants to be running from the press every day?
01:01:55 It's a stepping stone. If it means I reach the next level professionally, then I kind of have to.
01:02:01 These kinds of career moves can really set you up for bigger opportunities.
01:02:06 I don't understand. You're doing something to put you in the public eye on purpose?
01:02:11 And then, when it gets me to the place I want to be, that will also involve better security to live more privately.
01:02:17 Look, if this wedding's going to save you from doing things like this in the future,
01:02:26 then let's do it.
01:02:29 Joe, will you marry me?
01:02:32 I will.
01:02:34 But then we'll have to...
01:02:36 Consciously uncouple later?
01:02:38 You say the most romantic things sometimes.
01:02:41 Mom's open to meeting me.
01:02:48 Well, good luck.
01:02:51 Thanks for all you've done.
01:02:55 Bye.
01:02:59 [Birds chirping]
01:03:01 I'm surprised, Tara.
01:03:08 That I came?
01:03:10 No. Your choice in places to meet.
01:03:13 I mean, it's charming and earthy and everything on the menu is grown in local farms.
01:03:21 I do nature.
01:03:24 Yeah, the plants in your apartment are either plastic or on life support.
01:03:29 I've grown. Some might say I've blossomed.
01:03:33 Okay, I get it.
01:03:35 If you met Joe, he could tell you all about the area. It's natural beauty.
01:03:39 Is that so?
01:03:42 If you met him and Quinn, you'd understand why I'm continuing with the show.
01:03:49 If you want to play bride so much, try a little bit harder at being an actor in the normal way.
01:03:57 Don't meddle with a family and break a little girl's heart.
01:04:01 No one is being meddled with.
01:04:04 You're gonna regret this.
01:04:07 [Music]
01:04:14 [Birds chirping]
01:04:16 And I think I want a man that isn't afraid to speak his mind.
01:04:24 He takes me for who I am, but wants to be a cheerleader at the same time.
01:04:29 He supports me.
01:04:31 Is here the best spot, do you think?
01:04:34 I mean, the sun's a little in my eyes. It's too bright.
01:04:37 [Sighs]
01:04:41 Uh, can I help you?
01:04:43 Enjoying the view?
01:04:45 Uh, yeah, thanks.
01:04:48 You were here the other day, weren't you? With Tara.
01:04:52 Oh, I'm sorry. I, uh, think you're mistaken.
01:04:57 I don't think so. My personal trainer was pretty certain it was you.
01:05:01 You got the wrong guy.
01:05:02 You're telling me my personal trainer got it wrong?
01:05:06 No comment.
01:05:10 I've never asked you this, but how did you know Dad was the one?
01:05:15 Well, he was my soulmate.
01:05:22 And soulmates, well, they pay attention to the small things. Details.
01:05:36 He gave me flowers every weekend.
01:05:40 I'd actually forgotten that.
01:05:42 But it was more than that.
01:05:46 He always insisted on taking care of you and Rachel when you were sick and I had to work.
01:05:52 Because he knew how important my work was and the success of the family.
01:05:57 I could always rely on him.
01:06:00 He was a keeper.
01:06:04 It was hard not to love him.
01:06:07 You met Tara. I know it.
01:06:12 Why won't you answer my question?
01:06:14 Hey, here's a question. Are you stalking me?
01:06:17 Wait, aren't you the one stalking me from the restaurant the other day?
01:06:21 No, and I've never even met Tara.
01:06:24 Well, that video you were listening to sounds remarkably like her.
01:06:28 I didn't say I'd never heard of her, okay? I said I'd never met her.
01:06:32 Besides, why do you care?
01:06:34 Do you know who I am?
01:06:36 A so-called celebrity?
01:06:39 I'll have you know I am a public figure.
01:06:42 You're a TV host. I have no issue with that.
01:06:45 I do have an issue with people trying to sabotage other people's careers.
01:06:50 I wouldn't call what Tara's achieved much of a career.
01:06:54 Then why is she a threat to you? I mean, do you just enjoy hurting other people?
01:06:59 I'm not trying to hurt her.
01:07:02 But when it comes to my career, she needs to back off.
01:07:05 You know, I'm sure the press would have a field day to learn that Annie Moore is trying to bring down another woman, all for the sake of her own insecurities.
01:07:12 I have worked my entire life to get to where I am. I am not going to have some hotshot swoop in and take it from me.
01:07:18 Maybe try building a sisterhood rather than tearing someone down.
01:07:23 Enjoy the video.
01:07:26 [music]
01:07:32 All I want is for my daughter to be happy.
01:07:36 You want to protect me. I get it.
01:07:39 There are photographers snapping at your heels.
01:07:43 Surely that makes you think again about the show.
01:07:46 How do you mean?
01:07:48 There are photographers in your apartment lobby. They're at Joe's house.
01:07:52 You haven't spoken to any?
01:07:54 No.
01:07:56 Do you think I would tip off a reporter?
01:07:58 No, I just wanted to make sure you hadn't given anything away to...
01:08:02 Sell out my own daughter.
01:08:04 I didn't mean it like that. Mom, come on.
01:08:07 [music]
01:08:15 [music]
01:08:19 I hear congratulations are in order.
01:08:30 Quinn's speech.
01:08:33 Oh yeah, that's right. I'm so proud of her.
01:08:36 Charlotte's ordered me to take them out to pizza to celebrate. You want to join?
01:08:41 Yeah. I got a rain check on that. I got so much stuff I got to do here, but bring me back a slice.
01:08:47 Will do. Hope you're able to take an afternoon off one of these days.
01:08:51 One of these days, yeah.
01:08:53 Hi Quinn.
01:08:55 The play date finishes at five.
01:08:58 Okay, wear your seat belts guys. Have fun.
01:09:02 Alright.
01:09:04 Thanks Dad, bye.
01:09:06 Bye.
01:09:07 Alright, don't work too hard, will ya?
01:09:09 And Ben, yeah, thanks for this.
01:09:12 Anytime.
01:09:14 Alright, you guys ready?
01:09:17 Love you.
01:09:19 Love you.
01:09:38 What's my front doorbell? Not working?
01:09:41 Just trying to be a little less conspicuous.
01:09:43 Well, that's probably a good idea, Tara.
01:09:47 Annie's personal trainer saw us at the lake last week, so it turns out she's the one who's been tipping off the press.
01:09:53 She told you this?
01:09:55 Yeah, but I get the impression that she's going to leave us alone for a while.
01:09:59 Turns out that answering no comment only gets you so far.
01:10:03 But she's going to back off for now, I promise.
01:10:06 Joe.
01:10:08 I don't know what to say. My mind's just all over the place.
01:10:13 What happened at lunch?
01:10:15 I think I might have stomped on the olive branch my mom offered.
01:10:19 I'm sorry.
01:10:22 Tara, I really need to get something off my chest here.
01:10:28 Sorry, go on.
01:10:30 It's okay.
01:10:32 It's taken me a minute to really think about what I wanted to tell you.
01:10:36 And look, it's not that I've been scared of changing, it's that I'm afraid to drop my guard.
01:10:41 I'm afraid of getting hurt.
01:10:43 And I just need to know, like, how you really feel about this.
01:10:48 Are you even listening?
01:10:52 I'm sorry, it's a text from my agent.
01:10:55 I'm trying to talk to you, Tara.
01:10:57 I didn't get the Bride Weekly cover.
01:10:59 They gave it to Annie.
01:11:02 I'm clearly wasting my time.
01:11:04 I mean, if chasing the limelight is really more important than what we're talking about right now, I mean...
01:11:09 Joe.
01:11:10 No. I mean, I must have been crazy, right?
01:11:13 Tara, I let you into my home. You met my daughter.
01:11:16 What are you saying?
01:11:18 What do you think I'm saying?
01:11:20 You're making me nervous.
01:11:22 You don't want to go through with the wedding?
01:11:24 That's what you're worried about?
01:11:26 That's a fair question.
01:11:28 I should have trusted my gut from the beginning. Right from the beginning.
01:11:32 I mean, you are, you are unbelievable, Joe.
01:11:34 No, just...
01:11:36 I'll show up, okay?
01:11:39 But don't expect to hear from me after your big day.
01:11:42 Maybe announcing us consciously and cuddling will get you a few extra followers.
01:11:47 That's all you ever really wanted, right?
01:11:50 [music]
01:11:52 [music]
01:12:19 Hey, how's it going?
01:12:22 Tara?
01:12:24 I managed to blow it with Mom and Joe in the same day.
01:12:28 And to top it all off, I didn't make the Bride Weekly cover.
01:12:31 It can't be that bad.
01:12:33 When I found out I'd lost the cover, I didn't really feel anything.
01:12:41 All this, it's just...
01:12:43 smoke and mirrors.
01:12:48 Truthfully, I feel like you want to do something else with your life.
01:12:52 Maybe.
01:12:57 [music]
01:13:06 How do we have her after sendover?
01:13:09 It's nice, honey.
01:13:12 Nice? I was expecting a little bit more of a reaction, Dad.
01:13:17 Can you take a picture and send it to Tara?
01:13:20 Yeah, I can take a picture.
01:13:23 But it's just for us, honey.
01:13:27 It's maybe not the best time to send one to Tara.
01:13:30 We're kind of figuring a few things out.
01:13:33 [music]
01:13:44 [door creaks]
01:13:47 [door slams]
01:13:51 500 units sold?
01:14:01 Well, at least something's going right.
01:14:07 [knocking]
01:14:10 [door creaks]
01:14:12 Paparazzi has finally given up on stalking your lawn.
01:14:15 [gasps]
01:14:16 Who squished the cupcakes?
01:14:18 Who?
01:14:19 Tell me you got Red Velvet.
01:14:20 I did.
01:14:21 Now tell me the plan of action.
01:14:24 Eat my feelings.
01:14:26 You've got to tell Joe how you really feel.
01:14:30 [phone vibrates]
01:14:41 You can't ignore her.
01:14:43 I'm not ignoring her. I'm just figuring stuff out.
01:14:46 She deserves a second chance.
01:14:49 It's not just for me.
01:14:51 It's just for yourself, Dad.
01:14:54 Is there any way you can see him tomorrow?
01:15:02 We're kept separate at the venue.
01:15:05 Nadia's got a whole itinerary of how the day will run.
01:15:08 Understood. Because ordering a bride around on their big day
01:15:11 is the perfect gift that they never registered for.
01:15:13 Things just don't feel right.
01:15:17 [knocking]
01:15:19 Oh boy.
01:15:21 If that's Mom, I'm going to need another cupcake.
01:15:24 Hello, Tra-Agent. Remember me?
01:15:29 Colleen, hi.
01:15:31 Aw, you came to show sisterly support for tomorrow.
01:15:34 Cute.
01:15:35 Of course.
01:15:36 Now Tara, we really need to think about how to boost your sales
01:15:39 to turbo charge that career of yours.
01:15:41 Okay?
01:15:42 You're going to be Little Miss Hot Shot TV hosted no time.
01:15:45 Rachel, can you grab this backdrop off the table
01:15:49 and hang it on the stand?
01:15:51 I'd love to.
01:15:52 I'm going to fire up this ring light.
01:15:55 Colleen, can we take a sec?
01:15:57 Is that product in those boxes?
01:15:59 Can you just slow down?
01:16:00 What is it?
01:16:01 This is too much.
01:16:03 Well, I can turn it down if I can just find the switch on--
01:16:07 No. The wedding.
01:16:09 I'm having a few doubts.
01:16:12 Everyone has doubts.
01:16:14 I mean, I'm not sure the show is--
01:16:16 The show is a go.
01:16:17 Chop, chop.
01:16:18 Too late to turn back now.
01:16:20 With all due respect, isn't it just a TV show?
01:16:23 Exactly. It's my life, my choices.
01:16:26 Yes, and you chose to sign a contract.
01:16:29 I'd be happy to take a look at it.
01:16:30 Give it my professional legal opinion.
01:16:32 That won't be necessary.
01:16:34 Tara.
01:16:35 Tara, your wedding dress.
01:16:39 This needs to be hung up.
01:16:41 Do you realize how many women would kill
01:16:44 to have the opportunity to boost their careers like this?
01:16:47 My cell has been ringing off the hook since the announcement.
01:16:50 You need to sleep on this kind of decision.
01:16:55 Let's talk tomorrow.
01:17:01 [phone ringing]
01:17:04 Pick up. Pick up. Pick up.
01:17:10 Why is the groom-to-be not answering the phone?
01:17:13 Has Colleen called me?
01:17:16 No. I've managed to keep her busy with bridal duties.
01:17:18 I told her you didn't have a something blue,
01:17:20 so she went out to a gift shop to find something.
01:17:22 Genius.
01:17:23 Mm-hmm.
01:17:24 You clean up well.
01:17:26 Thank you.
01:17:28 Ugh. I can't get through to Joe.
01:17:31 I'm sure it'll be fine. I'm sure it's just butterflies.
01:17:34 I mean, he's never even met you.
01:17:37 I'd be nervous, too.
01:17:39 Let's hope love is blind.
01:17:42 Today doesn't quite feel how I expected it to.
01:17:49 To be more fun, right?
01:17:52 More Tara.
01:17:56 Why is this wedding so important to you?
01:17:59 It's less about the wedding, more about you being happy.
01:18:02 I'm fine.
01:18:04 Don't keep telling me you're fine. Show me you're happy.
01:18:07 [sighs]
01:18:11 [knocking]
01:18:13 Thank you.
01:18:16 You're welcome.
01:18:17 Are those from Mom?
01:18:19 No.
01:18:21 You are not gonna believe this.
01:18:25 They're from your nemesis.
01:18:27 Tara, all the best for your wedding day.
01:18:30 I realize now us girls have to stick together.
01:18:32 I was acting out of jealousy.
01:18:34 Your new fan, Annie.
01:18:37 Well, that's one less person who's mad at me.
01:18:41 Make that two.
01:18:43 I can't miss my daughter's wedding day.
01:18:49 What changed your mind?
01:18:51 Oh, a little lawyer-sized birdie had a word in my ear.
01:18:55 I have no idea what she's talking about.
01:18:58 What's in the box?
01:19:00 Darling, if getting married is the answer to your happiness,
01:19:07 I'm not gonna stand in your way.
01:19:10 Mom, it's beautiful.
01:19:20 It was my veil.
01:19:22 You don't have to wear it.
01:19:25 Do whatever you want to do.
01:19:28 I love you no matter what.
01:19:31 Okay, ladies, this is your 30-minute warning until showtime.
01:19:36 Ready for your close-up?
01:19:38 Tara?
01:19:42 What is it, dear?
01:19:44 What is it, dear?
01:19:48 You can't just leave!
01:19:50 Wait a minute.
01:19:58 Don't you know it's bad luck to see the groom before the wedding?
01:20:01 Oh, that ship has sailed, dear.
01:20:04 What about the wedding?
01:20:06 The wedding's off.
01:20:07 But he could be the man of your dreams.
01:20:09 Love is never this simple.
01:20:13 [door slams]
01:20:15 Tara, you're not meant to leave the bridal suite.
01:20:25 I got you something blue.
01:20:27 I'm pulling out of the show.
01:20:28 And this time, no one else is gonna convince her otherwise.
01:20:31 You're telling me you're happy to let the press tear you to pieces?
01:20:34 Calling Shirley Holmes to the stand, Your Honor.
01:20:37 My daughter doesn't need to marry a man to boost her career.
01:20:41 I want to follow my heart, professionally and personally.
01:20:46 Seriously, your hosting career will be over before it's even started.
01:20:52 Fine by me.
01:20:54 I've got a new passion.
01:20:56 Uh, what now?
01:20:57 I'm going to be an actress.
01:20:59 You've done a pretty good job at fooling everyone so far.
01:21:02 What do you mean by fooling everyone?
01:21:05 I just need a minute.
01:21:08 I have to find Joe.
01:21:11 [music]
01:21:13 Joe!
01:21:31 Did you hear that?
01:21:33 I thought I heard someone.
01:21:36 Joe, can you hear me?
01:21:38 Joe?
01:21:40 Stay here a second, honey.
01:22:07 You came.
01:22:09 For a moment there, I thought, well, I wouldn't have blamed you.
01:22:13 Of course I did.
01:22:16 And Tara, you look like a million dollars.
01:22:19 Thank my helpful assistants for working their magic.
01:22:22 To be honest, you've already seen me in this.
01:22:29 Wedding dress shot.
01:22:31 Oh.
01:22:32 So you're saying this was doomed from the start.
01:22:37 No.
01:22:39 I don't think so.
01:22:41 But I have to be honest.
01:22:43 I don't want to get married.
01:22:45 But not because I don't think we have something special.
01:22:48 There's something real here.
01:22:50 I've never felt so drawn to a person.
01:22:53 But all this spectacle, Joe, you were right.
01:22:57 It's not healthy.
01:22:59 And in order for something to grow...
01:23:01 It needs light and shade.
01:23:03 You taught me that.
01:23:05 And may I say, this suit?
01:23:08 So cute.
01:23:10 Yeah, I am way out of my comfort zone here.
01:23:13 I know. But I've also realized something else.
01:23:16 I'm going to focus on my acting career.
01:23:19 No more influencing or reality roller coaster rides.
01:23:23 It has been quite the ride.
01:23:26 But I wanted to give you something.
01:23:30 It's not a ring, is it?
01:23:34 This.
01:23:36 Great minds.
01:23:44 I thought this could be our something whole.
01:23:46 I'm glad to see you're embracing nature.
01:23:49 It's just a reminder that when I first met you...
01:23:54 I fell hard.
01:23:57 You did.
01:23:59 [laughs]
