00:00:10Discover
00:00:11We'll just get through this week and then never see each other again
00:00:14It's the journey that matters
00:00:16How do you know it's your one great love or if it's right?
00:00:18Alexa Pennevega
00:00:20There is nowhere else I'd rather be right now
00:00:22Destination Wedding starts right now on Hallmark Channel
00:00:27The heart of I Do
00:00:30Music
00:00:42Mandy, will you marry me?
00:00:45No, no
00:00:47When I met you
00:00:48No, that's not right
00:00:50From the moment I saw
00:00:52Jason
00:00:54Yes
00:00:55Relax
00:00:56How can I relax?
00:00:58Ellie, what if she says no?
00:00:59She's not gonna say no
00:01:01How do you know that, Ellie?
00:01:02Because she told me
00:01:04When?
00:01:05The night that she met you
00:01:07Alright
00:01:09That's her. Go
00:01:11Uh, okay
00:01:13Thank you, Ellie
00:01:15Of course, go
00:01:21Hey
00:01:22What is going on, Ellie?
00:01:23You said we were going to my birthday dinner
00:01:25So I put on a dress and lipstick and everything
00:01:27Are you trying to drag me over here?
00:01:28Wait, what is the emergency?
00:01:30It's hard to explain
00:01:32You just, you have to see for yourself
00:01:34Ellie, what are you talking about?
00:01:36Music
00:01:59Hi
00:02:01Hey
00:02:04Mandy
00:02:09From the moment that we met
00:02:13I knew
00:02:20I knew that you were the one for me
00:02:24And that I wanted to spend every day
00:02:27The rest of my life with you
00:02:34Music
00:02:39Will you marry me?
00:02:41Yes
00:02:43Yes
00:02:45Music
00:02:56Okay, everybody can come out now
00:02:59Okay
00:03:01Well, guys
00:03:03Oh, guys
00:03:05So happy for you
00:03:07Congratulations
00:03:09Thank you so much
00:03:13Hey
00:03:17So happy for you
00:03:19Of course you did this for us
00:03:21And of course it's incredible
00:03:23I had no idea where to begin, I mean
00:03:25Forget about interior design, Ellie
00:03:27Interior design is spectacular
00:03:29Only the best for my sister
00:03:31And now my brother
00:03:33Oh, isn't it beautiful?
00:03:35It's perfect
00:03:39I've got a wedding to plan
00:03:41I don't know how to plan anything
00:03:43I don't even know where to start
00:03:45Ellie, you have to help me
00:03:47Of course I will help you
00:03:49We have a wedding to plan
00:03:51Oh my gosh
00:03:53Music
00:03:55You really went all out for her
00:03:57Oh, she was so excited
00:03:59You got it on video, right?
00:04:01Please
00:04:03I perform my duties
00:04:05Thank you
00:04:07Tonight's the night she'll remember forever
00:04:09That's great
00:04:11I'm just glad you don't need a big production like this
00:04:17What we have is perfect
00:04:19Oh
00:04:21Oh my goodness
00:04:23Oh
00:04:25Stunning
00:04:27Oh my goodness
00:04:29That's wonderful
00:04:35How's my bow?
00:04:37It's good, really good, Dad
00:04:39You're a terrible liar, Ellie
00:04:41Which means I raised you right
00:04:43Yay for me
00:04:45You know
00:04:47your sister really should be helping us
00:04:49wrap the gifts for the bridal party
00:04:51It is her wedding
00:04:53Well, she had a meeting today, so I don't mind
00:04:55It's what a big sister does
00:04:57It's also what a mother does
00:04:59You've been always that kind of figure to her
00:05:03I got two more years with Mom than Mandy did
00:05:05She would have wanted me looking out for her
00:05:07What she wanted was for you two to be happy
00:05:09And we are
00:05:11Look at us
00:05:13I'm sure I'll attract you on K-Lane Interior Design someday
00:05:15Mandy's getting married
00:05:17I'm going strong with Alec
00:05:19You know, Ellie
00:05:21You get one great love in your life
00:05:23Your mother was mine
00:05:25Jason is Mandy's
00:05:27Is Alec yours?
00:05:29I guess time will tell
00:05:31Help me with the tape
00:05:37Okay
00:05:39It's three and a half miles, that's all I have time for today, babe
00:05:41So, yeah, I've got a meeting tomorrow morning
00:05:43And I know you have to finish the condo remodel before you leave
00:05:45So we could do dinner Thursday night?
00:05:47Friday?
00:05:49Thursday night, Friday morning
00:05:51Do you need a ride to the airport? I can pick you up on my way to work
00:05:53Thank you
00:05:55My dad actually got us a car service
00:05:57Really going all out for this wedding
00:05:59My dad did the same thing when my sister got married
00:06:01If you ask me, that is an insane amount of money
00:06:03to spend on one day
00:06:05Well, you hire a really good photographer
00:06:07That way you don't forget
00:06:09I could renovate an entire 3,000 square foot house
00:06:11for the price of Mandy's wedding
00:06:13Yes, but you're really good at what you do
00:06:15Oh
00:06:17You're good at what you do
00:06:19Planning, organizing
00:06:21I bet you, right now, you are mentally packing
00:06:23Yeah?
00:06:25I am! I'm so predictable
00:06:27I was actually trying to decide
00:06:29if five bathing suits was enough
00:06:31or if I was supposed to go home, shower off, and head to the mall
00:06:33You're going for one week
00:06:35Yeah, but it's Mexico
00:06:37We'll go bathing suits or business casual
00:06:41I really wish you were coming
00:06:43Then we wouldn't have to try to figure out when we could see each other
00:06:45I know. We're both so busy
00:06:47I'm bidding on two new projects
00:06:49so I couldn't get away even if I wanted to
00:06:51Plus, you're going to be so preoccupied taking care of Mandy
00:06:53Hey, you can't say bad things
00:06:55about my sister. Only I can say bad things
00:06:57about my sister
00:06:59She's just lucky that you're such an exceptional person
00:07:01That's all I'm saying
00:07:03Oh, gosh, we're so sweaty
00:07:05I can't deal with that right now
00:07:07I have to send you off desperately loving me
00:07:09especially since he's going to be there and I'm not
00:07:11Hey, you have nothing to worry about
00:07:13He is my past
00:07:15You are my present
00:07:17That's what I like to hear
00:07:19But hey, just for fun, can you tell me that he was
00:07:21like super awful?
00:07:23He was the worst, wasn't he?
00:07:25He was bad. Awful
00:07:27Okay, good. Big step up, right?
00:07:31Alrighty
00:07:33Here is your checklist
00:07:35for everything that you need to bring to Mexico
00:07:37Right here I have a list
00:07:39of all expenses paid
00:07:41and all the balances still owed, converted into American dollars
00:07:43You have to make sure that you have enough
00:07:45checks for all of your vendors
00:07:47You're listening, right? Yes, yes, Ellie, I'm listening
00:07:49Okay, it's just we leave in two days
00:07:51I want to make sure you have everything
00:07:53Oh, you have to call Tara, the event coordinator at the resort
00:07:55because she needs a confirmation on food, flowers
00:07:57and music. I sent you a list of questions
00:07:59I forwarded that to you. You got it, right?
00:08:01I got it. Okay
00:08:03You know, sometimes I wonder if this is my dream wedding
00:08:05or yours
00:08:07This is exactly what you wanted
00:08:09A simple thank you would suffice
00:08:11Thank you, Ellie, for planning my wedding
00:08:13and for being freakishly organized
00:08:15You're welcome
00:08:17It's cool
00:08:19You know
00:08:21maybe you should reconsider
00:08:23planning your own wedding
00:08:25You've definitely got a knack for it
00:08:27I'm not saying people
00:08:29shouldn't get married. It's just
00:08:31Alec and I don't need a piece of paper
00:08:33to prove that we're committed
00:08:35It's not really his thing, so we're taking things slowly
00:08:37and we're going to be so exhausted with this wedding
00:08:39You used to love this wedding stuff
00:08:41Remember when we were kids
00:08:43we would always play bride
00:08:45with mom's old dress up clothes
00:08:47You would always marry Teddy Ruxpin
00:08:49Oh, I remember. And if Teddy Ruxpin asked me to marry him today
00:08:51I might say yes
00:08:53I seem to recall
00:08:55at one point it was looking like
00:08:57you might marry
00:08:59Mandy, don't
00:09:01I just want to make sure everything's okay
00:09:03Ellie
00:09:05Seeing Greg again?
00:09:07You haven't even spoken since you broke up
00:09:09I mean, maid of honor and best man
00:09:11It's not like you can avoid him
00:09:13the whole week
00:09:15I know
00:09:17I will certainly try my hardest
00:09:19You have to pick one
00:09:21Okay, yeah, um
00:09:23Here's my bag
00:09:25Nothing?
00:09:27No, she hasn't answered again
00:09:29You know your sister
00:09:31She's probably scrambling around still packing
00:09:33She's not like you
00:09:35Ellie was packed three weeks ago
00:09:37Have you tried Jason's phone?
00:09:39Twice. He's not answering either
00:09:41Well, is there anyone else
00:09:43you want to contact?
00:09:45Another person in the bridal party perhaps?
00:09:47And see if he's heard from Jason?
00:09:49Are you seriously asking me what I think you're asking me?
00:09:51He's asking you to call Greg
00:09:53Yes, no, thank you, I got that
00:09:55And no, I don't need to call anyone else
00:09:59Maybe it's time you let this anger toward Greg go, Ellie
00:10:01I have
00:10:03I'm totally over it
00:10:05We just, we had a plan
00:10:07He made a choice, that choice wasn't me
00:10:09So if he expects us to be all kumbaya, let's be friends again
00:10:13Sounds like she's over it
00:10:15Look, I'm going to keep the peace for Mandy
00:10:17because I want this wedding to have as little drama as possible
00:10:19No glitches
00:10:21Oh, change of plans
00:10:23We're going straight to the airport, no stops
00:10:25Mandy had an issue with work
00:10:27They're taking the noon flight
00:10:29Yes, that explains why we haven't heard from her
00:10:31Okay, so one glitch
00:10:45Woo!
00:11:07Oh, perfect, that's it
00:11:09Um, okay, so we have everybody
00:11:11Well, everybody but your sister
00:11:13Stop with that
00:11:15I got a car service for her
00:11:17Okay, so the shuttle is here
00:11:19If you guys want to start loading up, we'll head to the resort
00:11:21I know you wanted to be special for her
00:11:23She's going to be here in a few hours, okay?
00:11:25Okay
00:11:27I can't believe your sister's in here to take it all in with us
00:11:29Yeah, but there's so much more to take in at the hotel
00:11:31You guys are going to love it
00:11:33Oh, I know, my best friend getting married in my hometown
00:11:35It's like a dream
00:11:37Okay, I'll see you guys over there
00:11:39Woo!
00:11:41Thankfully, I practically planned this whole thing
00:11:43So hopefully I can hold down the fort until Mandy gets here
00:11:45You'd tell me if something was wrong, right?
00:11:47Of course
00:11:49I just want to see both my granddaughters walk down the aisle
00:11:51I'm not getting any younger, you know
00:11:53And yet you somehow look better than I do
00:11:55How is that?
00:11:57You're deflecting
00:11:59Whenever I bring up marriage, you deflect
00:12:01I do not deflect
00:12:03I left my bag
00:12:05I'll be right back, go to the shuttle
00:12:07Okay
00:12:09Gracias
00:12:15Oh
00:12:17Ellie
00:12:19Hey, Greg
00:12:21Hi
00:12:23I'm glad that your flight wasn't delayed
00:12:25Yeah
00:12:27I mean, we knew we'd see each other here, right?
00:12:29Yeah
00:12:31You're the maid of honor, I'm the best man
00:12:33We introduced them to each other
00:12:35Yeah, it's been like about two years
00:12:39So
00:12:41How have you been?
00:12:43Good, great
00:12:45Life, family, work
00:12:47A lot better than I ever could have imagined
00:12:49Good, yeah, yeah, yeah, me too
00:12:51Really, really great
00:12:53Hey, I'm not surprised
00:12:55I mean, I'm glad you found what you were looking for in LA
00:12:59Well, my life was always in LA
00:13:01Incidentally, so was yours
00:13:03Kind of wasn't anymore
00:13:05Yeah, well, when you're recruited by one of the most
00:13:07prestigious criminal law firms in Atlanta
00:13:09You go
00:13:11Well, when the most prominent interior designer
00:13:13wants to mentor you, you
00:13:15Stay put
00:13:17Never turn down a career-making opportunity, right?
00:13:19Right, yeah, I think that's good advice
00:13:21They're actually waiting for us in the shuttle, so should we walk?
00:13:23Yeah, sure
00:13:25Okay, so did it?
00:13:27Did what?
00:13:29Did it make your career?
00:13:31You haven't heard?
00:13:35I thought maybe your sister would have told you since
00:13:37I stayed on Jason's couch when I was in town
00:13:39Looking for a place
00:13:41You're back
00:13:43Yeah, or at least I will be in a couple weeks
00:13:45Another incredible opportunity
00:13:47Oh, they just, uh, they keep
00:13:49Falling out of the sky for you, huh?
00:13:51Need to borrow your lucky penny
00:13:53Come on, you don't need it
00:13:55I saw your firm featured in Architectural Digest
00:13:57They called you a rising star
00:13:59Uh, Kay actually let me run point
00:14:01On the Montford Hotel remodel, so
00:14:03Kind of been a whirlwind
00:14:05So I guess things worked out
00:14:07The way they were supposed to for both of us
00:14:09And now
00:14:11Jason and Mandy are walking down the aisle, so
00:14:13See, one good thing came out of our
00:14:15Out of us
00:14:17You know, let's, let's not do this
00:14:19We don't have to rehash the past
00:14:21Your life is good, my life is great
00:14:23I couldn't agree more
00:14:25Okay, so we'll just get through this week
00:14:27We can coexist and then never see each other again
00:14:29Sounds like a plan to me
00:14:31Perfect, fine
00:14:33Good, after you
00:14:35Oh, okay
00:14:41Uh, dad, can I sit next to you?
00:14:43Yeah, of course
00:14:47Bring him out
00:14:49Grandma Goldie
00:14:51Well, you look well
00:14:53Me, look at you, you look 30, tops
00:14:55Ginkgo biloba
00:14:57Bless you
00:14:59It's a supplement
00:15:01Still sharp as a tack, nothing gets past me
00:15:03Never did, never will
00:15:05Hello, Greg
00:15:07Thomas, good to see you
00:15:09Sorry about your Dodgers
00:15:11About as sorry as I am about your fillies
00:15:13What? What are you talking about? All we gotta do is win the next
00:15:1550 or so games when we clinch a playoff spot
00:15:17Of course
00:15:19I apologize for underestimating you
00:15:21You know, Greg, of all the boys this one's dated
00:15:23You were always my favorite
00:15:25I'm right here, I can hear you
00:15:29Be nice, Alec adores you
00:15:31Alec's her boyfriend
00:15:33He's great
00:15:35He's actually on his way to be one of the most in-demand contractors in L.A. someday
00:15:39Wow, that's quite the press release you've written for a lucky lady
00:15:43I am
00:15:45He's the lucky one if you ask me
00:15:47Roll on, Capulcro!
00:15:49Roll on, Capulcro!
00:15:53Roll on
00:15:55Roll on
00:15:57Roll on
00:15:59Roll on
00:16:01Roll on
00:16:17It doesn't feel right being here without your sister
00:16:19It's her wedding
00:16:21but I don't want her to worry.
00:16:23Dad, you know how much I could get done
00:16:25leaving for a one-week vacation?
00:16:27With the honeymoon, they'll be here for two.
00:16:29I guess that's true.
00:16:31I'm gonna go upstairs, I will unpack,
00:16:33and I will go enjoy my time by the pool.
00:16:36I'll meet you at the pool.
00:16:38Okay. Thank you.
00:16:39Good.
00:16:45Jason, just tell me what is going on.
00:16:48Jason?
00:16:50How are you on the phone with Jason right now
00:16:52when he's supposed to be 35,000 feet in the air?
00:16:56Greg?
00:17:00Jason, will you put my sister on, please?
00:17:08Hi.
00:17:09Mandy, why are you guys not flying right now?
00:17:11Okay.
00:17:12Maybe I wasn't completely honest with you this morning.
00:17:16About what?
00:17:17Uh, well, there was a little issue,
00:17:20and we missed our plane.
00:17:22Both of them.
00:17:24What's the issue? Are you okay?
00:17:26We're fine.
00:17:27We had a fight.
00:17:28I said some things.
00:17:29Jason's mad.
00:17:31It's just, there's so much going on right now.
00:17:33Ellie, I can't...
00:17:34Mandy, you can't let the stress of the wedding get to you.
00:17:37Just forget about the details.
00:17:38This is about your marriage.
00:17:40I'm here to help.
00:17:42I know.
00:17:43We're gonna talk,
00:17:44and we're booking the first flight out tomorrow morning.
00:17:50What was that?
00:17:52Uh, nothing.
00:17:53It's fine. We're fine.
00:17:54Just tell everyone there was a problem with Jason's passport,
00:17:57and we'll see them tomorrow.
00:17:58You two can cover for us until then?
00:18:01Please?
00:18:02We're on it.
00:18:04Fly safely.
00:18:06We'll be fine.
00:18:08Jason!
00:18:15Bye.
00:18:24Tomorrow.
00:18:25Tomorrow.
00:18:45It's coming!
00:18:48AJ, you're splashing Grandma Goldie.
00:18:50Sorry.
00:18:52I'm fine, Jules.
00:18:53A little water never hurt anybody.
00:19:01Hi.
00:19:02Are you Ellie?
00:19:04I am.
00:19:05Thank goodness.
00:19:06I've been looking for you everywhere.
00:19:07I am Javier, the activities coordinator.
00:19:10Bon appétit.
00:19:11I am Javier, the activities coordinator.
00:19:13Bon, now it seems like I am also your wedding planner.
00:19:17Wait, what happened to Tara?
00:19:19We've been talking to her for months.
00:19:21Exactly.
00:19:22What did happen to Tara?
00:19:26That's the million-dollar question.
00:19:28Apparently, she ran off with a guest last night,
00:19:30and she left everything a mess.
00:19:31And guess who's gotta pick up the pieces?
00:19:33Javier!
00:19:34That is awful. I am so sorry.
00:19:37Oh, awful will be a blessing.
00:19:40I cannot find a record of anything.
00:19:42Oh, except for this post-it note.
00:19:49It already called your sister,
00:19:51and apparently she has not checked in yet.
00:19:54And apparently we have to place the food order today.
00:19:59Yes, okay.
00:20:00I'll go to the food tasting, and we'll get her on the phone.
00:20:03Great!
00:20:04Mandy, if you don't call me back within the next 30 minutes,
00:20:07I am picking the food myself,
00:20:08and I don't want to hear any complaints.
00:20:11Oh, don't worry, Javier. I know what she likes. I'm on it.
00:20:13Good. And I won't worry.
00:20:15The two of you will have to make all the decisions.
00:20:18Two of who?
00:20:20Oh, good. You're here.
00:20:21You know the best man, right? Greg, is it?
00:20:25Yeah, we know each other.
00:20:31Obviously, Jason isn't here, so Javier got a hold of me.
00:20:35Greg, go enjoy your vacation. I can handle this.
00:20:38Jason needs a voice here too, and as his best man, that voice is me.
00:20:43Fine.
00:20:46But I'm running point.
00:20:48You wouldn't have it any other way.
00:20:59So.
00:21:00So.
00:21:01This is nice of you to do for your sister.
00:21:03She would do the same for me.
00:21:06Okay, so these are the three dishes we offer.
00:21:10Here we have
00:21:31Chicken, fish, vegetarian.
00:21:36Okay, you don't have to eat like a caveman. I'm supposed to try this too.
00:21:41Come on, do people really care about what they eat at a wedding?
00:21:43Of course they do.
00:21:44Good music, drinks flowing, fun crowd. That's what people remember.
00:21:48If people make an effort to attend, you have to make it worth their while.
00:21:51With good food.
00:21:52I couldn't disagree more.
00:21:54What's the best wedding you've ever been to?
00:21:56Rick and Jill Anne's at the museum.
00:21:59What did you eat?
00:22:01Serpent.
00:22:02What did you eat?
00:22:04Serpent turf? No.
00:22:06You don't remember.
00:22:08I rest my case.
00:22:09Okay, but I do remember the chicken that we ate at Tim and Brittany's wedding.
00:22:13Yeah, of course you do.
00:22:14We all got food poisoning and we all got stuck in the ER hooked up to Ivys all night.
00:22:17I can assure you we've never had that problem here before.
00:22:20I think.
00:22:22I hope.
00:22:23I can check.
00:22:24It's okay, Javier. We're not worried.
00:22:26I think we should go with the vegetarian and the fish.
00:22:28Mandy likes chicken.
00:22:29Jason likes fish.
00:22:30Might I suggest the chicken and the fish since they both come with vegetables.
00:22:36That way we can all be happy.
00:22:38Yes, that's fine.
00:22:40Okay.
00:22:41Excelente.
00:22:42So we can move on to the cakes?
00:22:44Yes.
00:22:45Yes.
00:22:52Buenos dias.
00:22:53Hola.
00:22:54Hello.
00:22:59Alec, hey.
00:23:01Did you get it?
00:23:02They said I wasn't the lowest bid, but I was definitely the most thorough.
00:23:05See, if I'd come to Mexico, I wouldn't have got the renovation.
00:23:08I am so proud of you.
00:23:09I do wish you were here.
00:23:11All of Mandy's friends were hoping to get to know you a little better.
00:23:15It's kind of a big deal for our family.
00:23:17I know.
00:23:18And I'm sorry.
00:23:19But this is all for us, Al.
00:23:21For our future.
00:23:23Just because I'm not big into the marriage frenzy doesn't mean that I don't have plans.
00:23:27And I gave these new clients your card when they're ready with the interior.
00:23:30I haven't even thought about work.
00:23:32I'm a little bit worried about my sister, though.
00:23:35Stop putting everyone else first and enjoy your vacation.
00:23:38Well, it's not everyone else.
00:23:39It's my sister.
00:23:40I know.
00:23:41She's important.
00:23:44So, have you seen him yet?
00:23:47Yes, and it was disturbingly awkward.
00:23:49So we're trying to avoid each other, which is exactly how I prefer it.
00:23:53Hey, I'm running late for breakfast.
00:23:54I'll call you later.
00:23:55Okay, bye.
00:24:01Whoa!
00:24:02You guys closed the place down last night?
00:24:04The dance club was hopping.
00:24:06All right.
00:24:07Well, that's just the beginning.
00:24:08Did you see the activities we have planned for you guys?
00:24:10Yeah, we got the list on the welcome packet.
00:24:12Ellie, you went all out.
00:24:13No, not me.
00:24:14That's the bride and groom.
00:24:15And tonight's the poolside fiesta.
00:24:17I think they're teaching us samba or something.
00:24:19So save your energy.
00:24:20I've got plenty in reserve.
00:24:23We haven't samba'd since our honeymoon six years ago.
00:24:25That was not pretty.
00:24:27That's why we're having a lesson.
00:24:28We got this.
00:24:29When do Mandy and Jason get in?
00:24:31I want to see the dress.
00:24:32As far as I know, they're coming in today.
00:24:35Can I talk to you for a minute?
00:24:37Small issue with the food we picked yesterday.
00:24:40Nothing more important than the food you serve at a wedding, right?
00:24:43Sure, right.
00:24:45Jason left her.
00:24:47What do you mean, Jason left her?
00:24:49I don't know.
00:24:50That's what he said.
00:25:01My sister just hasn't been herself lately.
00:25:03She's stressed.
00:25:04She's been lashing out at him.
00:25:05I'm just hoping this will pass.
00:25:08They're having a moment due tonight.
00:25:11They're having a moment due to heightened circumstances.
00:25:14This is Mandy and Jason we're talking about.
00:25:15They're perfect for each other.
00:25:17Well, evidently not anymore.
00:25:19What am I supposed to tell my dad and my grandma?
00:25:21They're so excited for this wedding.
00:25:25Look.
00:25:26No one knows those two better than you and me, right?
00:25:29So maybe we can talk some sense into them.
00:25:32Together?
00:25:34Yeah.
00:25:36I mean, it's worth a shot.
00:25:38Form a united front.
00:25:39Convince them that it'll all be fine once they get down here.
00:25:44Okay.
00:25:45Yeah, we can do that for them.
00:25:49So much for keeping our distance, right?
00:25:54What are you guys doing?
00:25:56We're here for you.
00:25:58Can't believe I'm seeing you together.
00:26:00It's good.
00:26:01You two need to talk.
00:26:03No, this isn't about us.
00:26:04We're here for you guys.
00:26:06So just tell us what's happening.
00:26:09Well, Jason doesn't want to marry me anymore.
00:26:12That's not what I said.
00:26:13She was being nasty.
00:26:14So I said if you continue speaking to me like that, I'm walking away.
00:26:17Okay, Mandy, we talked about this.
00:26:19You can't let the stress take over.
00:26:21Well then, Jason left without so much as a word
00:26:23when we were supposed to be on our way to the airport.
00:26:26Okay, so it sounds like you guys are having a little communication issue.
00:26:29Yes, she needs to communicate better.
00:26:32Alright, well, that's not good.
00:26:33But, Jason, you can't just walk out when you're angry.
00:26:36It's really important that you stay and you talk things through,
00:26:39especially when you guys are making a decision that affects the both of you
00:26:42and your future.
00:26:44You're in this together.
00:26:45She's right, Jay.
00:26:46But remember, communication works two ways.
00:26:48It's important to listen as much as speak.
00:26:51Just be sure to tell Mandy the reason why you left without discussing things
00:26:54so she understands that sometimes it's as much for her as it is for you.
00:26:59So, when you walk out on someone, you're doing them a favor?
00:27:02Is that what you're saying, Greg?
00:27:04That's the best advice you can give them?
00:27:06Things aren't always as they appear, Ellie.
00:27:08They're exactly as they appear.
00:27:10He left.
00:27:12Okay, let's just get it all out on the table, what this is really about.
00:27:15No, this has nothing to do with the fact that you accepted a job in another state
00:27:19without even discussing it with me, and then you left.
00:27:22Maybe I didn't want you to have to make a choice
00:27:24between your career and our relationship.
00:27:26So you broke my heart as a favor to me?
00:27:28You have to look at both sides of the coin, Ellie.
00:27:31Everyone was going to have to sacrifice.
00:27:33I just didn't want to place it all on your shoulders.
00:27:35Oh, that's beautiful, Greg.
00:27:36They really should write love songs about you.
00:27:38And yet you got angry at me without letting me explain.
00:27:41So maybe try practicing what you preach.
00:27:42Whatever.
00:27:43Okay, the point is...
00:27:45Guys.
00:27:47Hey.
00:27:48You guys there?
00:27:50Hello?
00:27:52Great, well that went well.
00:27:54Yeah, you too.
00:27:55I admire your technique.
00:27:56Yeah, you too.
00:27:57I admire your technique.
00:28:09Your sister's missing all her own wedding festivities.
00:28:11She was so excited about this party.
00:28:14I know.
00:28:15But what can they do?
00:28:16Is there something else going on, Ellie?
00:28:18No, Graham.
00:28:19You know how international travel is.
00:28:21No passport, no trip.
00:28:23Well, I just hope it comes in time for the reception.
00:28:25They paid for a rush.
00:28:27What's that mean?
00:28:56Thank you.
00:28:57Thank you.
00:29:23Buenas noches, everybody.
00:29:25Some of you already might know me.
00:29:26I am Javier.
00:29:27Last night I was the DJ at the disco,
00:29:29and today I'm going to teach you how to bailar.
00:29:32To dance.
00:29:33El jarabe tapatÃo is the Mexican hat dance,
00:29:36which is the official dance of Mexico.
00:29:38And I will need two volunteers for this.
00:29:40Don't be shy.
00:29:41Dancing is about feeling, not about how you look.
00:29:44How about you, sir?
00:29:45In the pink shirt.
00:29:46Greg, yes, come on up.
00:29:48And you.
00:29:49Come on and join us.
00:29:50Yes, up on the stage.
00:29:52A round of applause for our volunteers.
00:29:54Okay, perfect.
00:29:55No, switch places.
00:29:59Now, si.
00:30:01Now, come together as one.
00:30:03You do not need to speak,
00:30:05because dance is a language internacional.
00:30:08El jarabe tapatÃo is the dance of a man's courtship of a woman.
00:30:13It is romance.
00:30:15Si?
00:30:16First, the man invites his partner in for courtship,
00:30:20but she rebuffs his advances.
00:30:23Por favor.
00:30:26So, he courts.
00:30:28She rebuffs.
00:30:29Court.
00:30:30Rebuff.
00:30:31Gracias.
00:30:32Now you try.
00:30:34Don't step on my feet.
00:30:36I did that once.
00:30:39Rebuff.
00:30:40I am rebuffing.
00:30:42All the way rebuffing.
00:30:44I am courting.
00:30:45I am still courting.
00:30:46More courting.
00:30:48Come on!
00:30:50Very nice.
00:30:51All right.
00:30:53As we dance, you get closer together
00:30:57as you follow these steps.
00:30:59And it becomes irresistible, this man.
00:31:02Si?
00:31:04She cannot fight any longer.
00:31:06And love wins.
00:31:07Por favor.
00:31:23Okay, your turn.
00:31:24El sombrero.
00:31:25The sombrero.
00:31:26Yes, sarape.
00:31:27All right.
00:31:28Thank you, Javier.
00:31:29Thank you.
00:31:30Now you try.
00:31:31I am definitely ready.
00:31:32Very good.
00:31:33Are you ready?
00:31:34Oh, gosh.
00:31:35I don't think you are.
00:31:37All right.
00:31:38Ha!
00:31:44Ha!
00:31:45Oh, don't kick me in the head.
00:31:47Oh, don't kick me in the head.
00:31:52Hey!
00:31:55El amor siempre gana.
00:31:57Translation, love always wins.
00:32:04I can never get AJ to leave anywhere.
00:32:06He just talks and talks.
00:32:07Alex says the same thing about me.
00:32:10Yeah, thank you.
00:32:12I know, I wish he was here.
00:32:13I was looking forward to spending more time with him.
00:32:15Spending more time with who?
00:32:17Ellie's boyfriend, the elusive Alec.
00:32:19We've only met him one time in the year they've been dating.
00:32:22Yeah, but he's really busy.
00:32:23It's hard for him to get away.
00:32:24You've been for your sister's wedding?
00:32:26And not if he's going to become the hottest contractor in Los Angeles.
00:32:29Wait, how do you know that?
00:32:32If you ask Ellie about him, she'll give you his resume.
00:32:35Well, I'm really proud of him, and I like to acknowledge his accomplishments.
00:32:39He does the same with me.
00:32:41No, that's, that's, that's good.
00:32:42That's, no crime in that.
00:32:44I just, I don't know, I wonder about him.
00:32:47What do you wonder, Greg?
00:32:49Alrighty, we'll see you guys at golf tomorrow.
00:32:53Good night.
00:32:55I'm not trying to be rude, Ellie.
00:32:58Everyone knows your family is everything to you.
00:33:00Especially your sister, and he's not here.
00:33:02We're not doing this.
00:33:03I mean, if I had missed something this crucial when we were together.
00:33:06Why do you care?
00:33:08Contrary to what you may think, I want you to be happy.
00:33:11Well, I am happy.
00:33:13Okay, great, I'm glad.
00:33:17I'm just surprised you're so okay with him not being here.
00:33:21Well, neither are the bride and groom, and they're not answering any of my calls.
00:33:24So, really, I have a bigger absence to deal with.
00:33:26Well, they're not answering my calls either.
00:33:29This is not normal.
00:33:30Normal? You want to talk normal?
00:33:33My sister's not here, my boyfriend's not here, I'm lying to my family.
00:33:37And the only person I can talk to about any of this is you.
00:33:39None of this is normal.
00:33:44Ugh.
00:33:54Hello, everybody. It's me again, Javier.
00:33:57Directing the activities.
00:33:59So, the hosts who are yet to arrive sent me the list for your foursomes today.
00:34:04So I have put names on each one of these golf carts and golf clubs behind them.
00:34:10So have fun, and may you all golf like the golfer Jack Nicolas.
00:34:14Javier?
00:34:15Si?
00:34:16You spoke to them? The bride and groom?
00:34:18Well, yes, I got that email.
00:34:20And? What did they say? Are they on their way?
00:34:22Well, this information I do not have.
00:34:24I'm merely the messenger. Stop. Don't shoot.
00:34:26Enjoy.
00:34:27Thank you, Javier.
00:34:28Sure.
00:34:30Well, I guess that's something that they want us to keep on schedule.
00:34:33I just wish they'd talk to us.
00:34:41They made us a pair?
00:34:44You're riding with AJ. I'm riding with Jules.
00:34:46Jules, you're riding with me.
00:34:49Okay.
00:34:54What's up?
00:34:55Nothing.
00:35:01Seriously, Ellie, I don't understand why your sister isn't answering any of my texts.
00:35:05Or my phone calls.
00:35:07Because it's hard. Everyone off having dinner party without them.
00:35:11Think about how you'd feel being stranded at home.
00:35:13I don't know. It feels like something's up.
00:35:15Jules, nothing is up.
00:35:18Fine. We'll ride together to avoid interrogation.
00:35:21But we're not talking.
00:35:24I'm sorry.
00:35:37So, I know we're technically not talking right now, but...
00:35:40But what?
00:35:42You've lost your swing.
00:35:43I have not lost my swing. I happen to have had 90 hours of golf practice since I last saw you.
00:35:49Well, you might want to get your money back then.
00:35:51I'm sorry. What did you get on that last hole? I can't really remember.
00:35:57Uh...
00:35:59Seven?
00:36:00An eight. A snowman.
00:36:02I, however, got a three.
00:36:04So if you want any tips, Mr. Eight Strokes Per Hole, I'll figure out an appropriate fee.
00:36:16It's Mandy.
00:36:17Mandy, got your messages. We're talking things through, dot, dot, dot.
00:36:21Please continue to hold down Fort one more day.
00:36:24Okay. Well, that's something.
00:36:26Although this fort is on shaky ground, people aren't going to buy this forever.
00:36:30I mean, it's just a little bit longer.
00:36:32And I don't want to upset my family, especially if this is the only wedding they're getting.
00:36:36What do you mean?
00:36:38Well, Alec and I aren't entirely sure the whole marriage thing is for us.
00:36:41We don't need a piece of paper.
00:36:43Okay. Who are you and what have you done with Ellie?
00:36:46What? It's hard for him.
00:36:48His mom was married four times to four terrible guys.
00:36:51It's sour anyone on the institution.
00:36:53I'm not talking about anyone. I'm talking about you.
00:36:55I mean, you used to love this stuff.
00:36:57Okay, we're not having this conversation.
00:37:00Hey, listen. I'm sorry if I overstepped things last night.
00:37:06Wait. Was that an apology? I'm not really sure I heard that correctly.
00:37:09Yes, you heard that right. I was inappropriate.
00:37:13I don't know. I was having a great time with your family.
00:37:17And you know what I was remembering? I was remembering me missing Easter dinner with Grandma Gold.
00:37:21Do you remember how furious everybody was?
00:37:23Because you forgot the turkey. We had no main dish.
00:37:26I brought cheeseburgers after I finished trial prep.
00:37:28Yeah, at midnight.
00:37:30They were doubles. Everybody loved them. I was forgiven on the spot.
00:37:36Listen, whatever's happened between you and me, your family has always meant a lot to me.
00:37:44I know.
00:37:48Work's important, but life's all about sharing these milestones with each other.
00:37:54I know that too.
00:37:57All right.
00:37:59Thanks.
00:38:08Ellie.
00:38:10Honey, can you ask your sister to call Grandma?
00:38:13She's growing more concerned at every moment, and I don't know how to appease her.
00:38:16Of course. Unless she's on a plane right now.
00:38:19But you're not sure that she is.
00:38:22I will call her.
00:38:23They're missing everything.
00:38:25Yeah, she's really bummed about that.
00:38:27She really wishes she could be here.
00:38:29Look, she needs to tell me that herself.
00:38:31I am not convinced.
00:38:33Oh, this could be Mandy.
00:38:35Hello?
00:38:37Javier! Yes!
00:38:39Oh, okay. Yeah, I will be right there. Bye.
00:38:44I gotta go. Flowers! Wedding decisions. Can't wait for Mandy to get here.
00:38:48You know what? I'll come with you.
00:38:51Jason needs to be represented too. Florally.
00:38:58Okay, these are the two options we offer.
00:39:01One big table? Which arrangement will it be?
00:39:05Mandy would like the ones on the right.
00:39:07Jason would like the ones on the left.
00:39:09Yeah, but she loves oleanders.
00:39:11He likes orange.
00:39:13Orange?
00:39:14Orange.
00:39:15Listen, I've been a wedding planner for 72 hours.
00:39:19And I don't know much about flowers except that when my girlfriend gets mad at me, flowers make her un-mad.
00:39:25So, what do you say we combine them together?
00:39:28No more fighting. At all. Ever again.
00:39:32That seems fine. Greg?
00:39:35Yeah, great idea, Javier. Thanks.
00:39:37Thanks, Javier.
00:39:38Right.
00:39:42I'm getting good at this.
00:39:43I don't understand the radio silence. We were just trying to help them.
00:39:47It's not that surprising. By trying to help them, we judged up our past.
00:39:51Yeah, it's not my intention.
00:39:53Mine either.
00:39:54You know, I just wanted to come to Mexico, have a really nice vacation, watch my sister walk down the aisle, have a few dozen margaritas.
00:40:00Is that so hard to ask for?
00:40:02It would seem so, yes.
00:40:07You want to go hide?
00:40:08More than anything.
00:40:09Okay.
00:40:16Ah, I missed the beach when I was in Atlanta.
00:40:20This is my thinking spot.
00:40:21Yesterday I was here for, like, an hour.
00:40:24Thinking.
00:40:25Okay. About what?
00:40:28About life.
00:40:30Love. The pursuit of happiness.
00:40:31Oh, right. So, nothing too deep.
00:40:34Okay.
00:40:36Did you happen to find...
00:40:39Mandy, please tell me you're at the airport.
00:40:44We're not coming, Allie.
00:40:46Wait, wait. Stop, stop. What are you talking about?
00:40:48The wedding's off.
00:40:50I need you to tell everyone.
00:41:02I can't believe they would call it off.
00:41:04What is happening?
00:41:05She's just not thinking things through.
00:41:07I'm not doing it.
00:41:09I'm not going to try and fix this, and I'm not dropping the bomb for them.
00:41:11Okay.
00:41:13Our whole lives, I've always picked up the pieces for her.
00:41:15I'm always trying to help her.
00:41:16Our whole lives, I've always picked up the pieces for her.
00:41:18I'm always cleaning up her mess.
00:41:19I practically planned her entire wedding.
00:41:21It made it so easy for her to be just so irresponsible.
00:41:24Why?
00:41:26Why what?
00:41:27Why do you always keep picking up the pieces for her?
00:41:29You don't think she can handle her own life?
00:41:31Because she's my sister.
00:41:33I think it's more than that.
00:41:36And look, I'm not saying you're doing this, but this wedding...
00:41:39This is, like, what you always used to talk about.
00:41:42Getting married by the beach.
00:41:43Surrounded by your closest friends and family.
00:41:45Yeah, because my sister and I had the same vision of what our perfect wedding would be.
00:41:49I was just executing it for her.
00:41:52Okay, I get it.
00:41:54My whole family has been looking forward to this for almost a year.
00:41:57My dad was so excited to walk her down the aisle.
00:41:59I'm not going to be destroying this for them.
00:42:01I mean, I may have been the cause of this monster, but I don't have to enable it.
00:42:06Yeah, but people came all this way, they spent money, they took time off work.
00:42:11Okay, that's true, but this is Jason and Mandy's mess.
00:42:15If they're not coming, they should tell everyone.
00:42:18Well, you can't hide forever.
00:42:20When we see someone, they're going to ask.
00:42:22Well, I don't plan on seeing anyone.
00:42:25I'm running away.
00:42:26You're running away?
00:42:27Mm-hmm. At least for a couple hours.
00:42:31I haven't been into town yet.
00:42:33I haven't been into town either.
00:42:42This is amazing.
00:42:47Oh, wow.
00:42:49This place is great.
00:42:53Oh, hello.
00:42:57Mandy would have loved this.
00:42:59Oh, yeah, are you kidding me?
00:43:01You remember the night we introduced them to each other?
00:43:04Yes. You threw me a birthday party and your power went out.
00:43:08Mandy and I had to go to the 99 cent store and buy, like, 100 candles for, like, 25 bucks.
00:43:12Yeah, my place never looked better.
00:43:14Candlelight hides all the dirt.
00:43:15It really did look like a movie.
00:43:17It's beautiful.
00:43:20And then after everybody left, we went out to the deck,
00:43:24beautiful candlelight, and just talked about our future.
00:43:30What is it about the flickering lights that just makes everything seem so much more perfect?
00:43:34There's something to be said about ambience.
00:43:36Um...
00:43:38¿Puedo?
00:43:44SÃ.
00:43:46Oh, I see. So you ran away so you could shop, huh?
00:43:50You know what? I know just what you need.
00:44:00Here you go.
00:44:07Thank you.
00:44:09We were going to have it all back then, huh?
00:44:11Yeah. You were going to defend the wrongfully accused,
00:44:14and I was going to decorate their houses once they were free.
00:44:18That seems like a lifetime ago.
00:44:21Yeah. The future seemed so simple and perfect.
00:44:26Then it all kind of changed.
00:44:29It was really hard for me, the breakup,
00:44:32and Manny was just kind of there to help put myself back together.
00:44:37Yeah, it was hard.
00:44:41You know, I accepted the job without talking to you because
00:44:48I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if you had chosen to come with me over your own opportunity.
00:44:52I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if you had chosen to come with me over your own opportunity.
00:44:59I might have.
00:45:02I know. And you probably wouldn't be where you are today if you had.
00:45:10You put me first in case I didn't.
00:45:13I love you.
00:45:21I am, you know what, I am starving.
00:45:23Me too. Why did we decide to run away before dinner?
00:45:26I don't know. You want to go back to the resort?
00:45:28No, not even a little bit.
00:45:30Okay.
00:45:35Oh, I don't know if they'll let you.
00:45:37Well, I'm going to try anyway.
00:45:40Oh, I may never go back.
00:45:42I think I'm just going to sit here and eat mini tacos for the rest of my days.
00:45:46Yeah, you could do a whole lot worse in life.
00:45:48Oh, so good.
00:45:55Do you hear that?
00:45:57I can't hear about the sound of my chewing.
00:45:59They're playing our song.
00:46:01Guns and Roses, Sweet Child O' Mine?
00:46:03No, not our old song, our new song. Listen.
00:46:05Listen.
00:46:08Yes.
00:46:10None other than, shall we?
00:46:12No, I don't remember.
00:46:14Come on.
00:46:17Listen, I'll come back to you just like this, like riding a bike.
00:46:20Do you remember what happened the last time I rode a bike?
00:46:22Fine, then we must find you a much safer activity.
00:46:26We must bailar.
00:46:28Yes. Oh, yeah.
00:46:30My courtship shall begin in three seconds.
00:46:32Are you ready?
00:46:34On the count of these, gentlemen.
00:46:36In three, two, one.
00:46:38And I'm courting.
00:46:40And I'm courting.
00:46:42And I rebuff.
00:46:44Rebuffing.
00:46:46But I continue and persist to court.
00:46:48And I rebuff you.
00:46:50No, thank you, sir.
00:46:52Am I doing any better at all?
00:46:54Maybe a little bit better.
00:46:56Okay, wait. Hold on a second.
00:46:58The hat!
00:47:00Oh, yeah. Here comes the hat.
00:47:02Ha!
00:47:04Oh, oh, yeah. I forgot that one.
00:47:06No, no, no. That's my move. You can't take my move.
00:47:08No, I don't remember. What was my move?
00:47:10Your move is just like the girly one. It's like the...
00:47:12Oh, yes. Okay, yes.
00:47:14I have got to be getting more irresistible.
00:47:17You cannot resist me, no?
00:47:19It is almost futile.
00:47:21Oh!
00:47:23Whoo!
00:47:28Love always wins.
00:47:33We are not getting any better at this, are we?
00:47:35No, actually, I think we are requesting.
00:47:43Gracias.
00:47:47Okay, so maybe dancing with the stars isn't in our future.
00:47:50Well, there is one small problem.
00:47:52What's that?
00:47:54Other than the fact that I can't dance.
00:47:56You're not a star.
00:47:58Right. I always forget that part.
00:48:03Oh, yeah. Grab it. I'll pay the bill.
00:48:05Thank you.
00:48:11Alec?
00:48:13Finally, Ellie. I've been trying to reach you all night.
00:48:15Sorry. There was just a band.
00:48:17It was really loud, so I couldn't hear my phone.
00:48:20Okay, so tell me why I ran into your sister at the grocery store today
00:48:24and she told me the wedding had been canceled.
00:48:26Well, we heard they were having an issue,
00:48:29so we were just trying to patch things up from afar.
00:48:32Who's we? You and your dad?
00:48:35Well, you know, everyone.
00:48:38Interesting, because when I couldn't get a hold of you, I called your dad,
00:48:42and he seems to think that they're not there because Jason lost his passport.
00:48:46So I'm going to ask again.
00:48:48Who is we?
00:48:50He's the best man, Alec, and we just wanted to keep things quiet.
00:48:55We didn't want to upset everyone,
00:48:57and then my grandmother...
00:49:00It's completely innocent.
00:49:03Then why try to hide it from me?
00:49:05You're right. You're right. It's stupid.
00:49:08I just didn't want you to get the wrong idea.
00:49:11It's too late for that.
00:49:14Well, we were planning on telling everyone the truth in the morning,
00:49:17so I imagine we'll all head home soon after that.
00:49:20And then you're never going to see him again. Is that what you're saying?
00:49:23Yes. Yes, that is what I'm saying.
00:49:27All right, call me tomorrow.
00:49:28Alec?
00:49:32Alec?
00:49:35Everything okay?
00:49:37Yeah, it's fine.
00:49:40Oh.
00:49:43Hey, Dad?
00:49:45Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa. Calm down.
00:49:50Okay. Okay, I'll be right there.
00:49:54It's Grandma Goldie.
00:50:04Gran?
00:50:07Elibel.
00:50:09Are you okay?
00:50:11Thomas, be a dear and go get me some tea.
00:50:15Sure.
00:50:16And a juice.
00:50:18Oh, right.
00:50:19And two carne asada tacos with extra pico de gallo.
00:50:24I should have insisted they get married in L.A.
00:50:26Then none of this would be happening.
00:50:28I'll be okay.
00:50:33All right.
00:50:35Now tell me, you two, what is going on with your sister?
00:50:39Grandma, you're faking?
00:50:41Well, maybe my blood sugar dropped a little.
00:50:44But that's what happens
00:50:46when you have two rum-a-lum-a ding-dong cocktails before breakfast.
00:50:50But I'm fine.
00:50:51Why pretend then?
00:50:53I needed to have your defenses down so you'd tell me the truth.
00:50:56Why are they not here?
00:50:58You're nothing if not effective, Goldie.
00:51:00I've missed you.
00:51:01Oh, the feeling is quite mutual, Gregory.
00:51:04Well?
00:51:06You know Mandy doesn't deal with stress very well.
00:51:09And I could only take so much of the pressure off of her.
00:51:12Your sister does not have the sense of obligation you do.
00:51:15She's always been taken care of.
00:51:17I'm sure it never even crossed her mind to feel badly that all these people came here for her.
00:51:23Uh, no, she has not mentioned that.
00:51:27But you.
00:51:29You always make things better for everyone else.
00:51:32That's what I keep telling her.
00:51:35Let your sister handle her own life.
00:51:37And you focus on yours.
00:51:40Just make sure you don't let any past disappointments dictate future decisions.
00:51:46The past is not prologue.
00:51:49Sometimes it's just a matter of timing.
00:51:53Gran, may we help you out of bed?
00:51:56No.
00:51:59My tacos are coming.
00:52:02Okay.
00:52:09I wish you'd told me about Mandy and Jason earlier.
00:52:12Maybe I could have helped.
00:52:14We just didn't want to trouble anyone with it.
00:52:17You've shouldered the weight of this family long enough.
00:52:20I shouldn't have let you take it on.
00:52:22And I'm sorry.
00:52:23Oh, no, no.
00:52:24It's what you do for the people you love, right?
00:52:28I'm going to talk to them, see if I can fix this.
00:52:30Hopefully they listen to you.
00:52:32They're meant for each other.
00:52:33And everybody knows it except them.
00:52:36It's weird how two people cannot see what is so obvious to everyone else.
00:52:59Oh, no.
00:53:12Good morning.
00:53:13Hey, I hope I didn't wake you.
00:53:15Hey, guys, can you move this real quick?
00:53:17I was just calling to see what time you think you'll be in today.
00:53:19We can pick you up at the airport, take a few days off, we can go up the coast.
00:53:25Oh, that's okay, Alec.
00:53:26Actually, my dad is on the case now, so we're not going to call it a date just yet.
00:53:32He thinks he can patch the rift.
00:53:37Oh, weddings, they complicate everything.
00:53:40Well, I mean, it's not the wedding that's the problem.
00:53:43So you're saying it's your sister?
00:53:45No, I didn't.
00:53:47That's not what I said.
00:53:49It's just circumstance.
00:53:51Yeah, that she created.
00:53:53I'm not trying to bash her, but this is what she does.
00:53:56Okay, well, she is my sister, so I suggest you be really careful about what you say next.
00:54:02All this back and forth, I mean, it's crazy making out.
00:54:06The wedding's on, the wedding's off, they love each other, they're not talking.
00:54:10Seriously, if she were my sister, I would be on the first flight out of there.
00:54:14Right, but you didn't even come down here, so you couldn't do that if you wanted to.
00:54:18You are upset that I'm not there.
00:54:20Yes.
00:54:22And you're going to wait and see what happens just to punish me?
00:54:26No, no, I'm upset, but I'm not petty, Alec.
00:54:29Once again, your sister comes first, and I'm the runner-up.
00:54:36You wanted to drive up the coast?
00:54:38So you could have taken the weekend, but you didn't want to come down to Mexico because you just don't like my sister.
00:54:43That's not what I said, Ellie.
00:54:45No, no, actually, you didn't have to because you said it a million times before, I just didn't realize it.
00:54:52Look, Mandy may not be perfect, but she is my family, Alec.
00:54:57And we are a package deal.
00:54:59Ellie.
00:55:01Hey, guys.
00:55:04Grandma Goldie?
00:55:05Oh, my favorite boy.
00:55:10So, I want to thank you all for being here, and I promise, their arrival is imminent.
00:55:15Meanwhile, we want you all to enjoy yourselves.
00:55:17We've got a little bit of work to do, so we'll see you next time.
00:55:20Bye.
00:55:21Bye.
00:55:22Bye.
00:55:23Bye.
00:55:24Bye.
00:55:25Bye.
00:55:26Bye.
00:55:27Meanwhile, we want you all to enjoy yourselves.
00:55:29We've got a lot of great food here, so just enjoy the day.
00:55:43Nothing.
00:55:44I've heard nothing.
00:55:49Trying to steal my secret spot?
00:55:52You're going to have to bring down your do not disturb sign or else it's up for grabs.
00:55:58You okay?
00:56:01Just needed some alone time.
00:56:03You upset about the wedding or lack thereof?
00:56:07Actually, this one's on Alec.
00:56:11I get that my sister's not easy, but you love me, you have to love my family. That's not negotiable.
00:56:18Very first thing I learned about you.
00:56:20So, you're not blissfully happy?
00:56:25Sometimes I think I could be.
00:56:29I tried to tell myself the same thing when I was in Atlanta, but I was looking for something to bring me back to L.A. from almost the minute I got there.
00:56:40I had a lot of regrets.
00:56:41Look, I don't know Alec at all, and I'm not judging him.
00:56:48But it seems to me that some people are against marriage because it affords them an uncomplicated easy out from the relationship.
00:57:01I'm sorry.
00:57:03It's okay.
00:57:04It affords them an uncomplicated easy out from the relationship.
00:57:11Maybe that's what you want.
00:57:19You know, before I got the job offer, I was going to ask you to marry me.
00:57:27I know.
00:57:30I was going to say yes.
00:57:34Okay.
00:57:49All right, everybody.
00:57:51Anything?
00:57:52No.
00:57:56Here, take this card. Maybe it'll bring me some luck.
00:58:01Okay.
00:58:02Grand prize is scuba lessons.
00:58:04Oh my goodness, what are you going to do with scuba lessons?
00:58:06Tell them.
00:58:09See that kid over there? Keeps winning. He is my nemesis. I will beat him.
00:58:16B-9. I sent a doctor call and say the problem was B-9.
00:58:21Did you hear that?
00:58:22Why don't we leave?
00:58:25So, how was the rest of the barbecue? I left because it was too breezy for me.
00:58:29I think everybody enjoyed it.
00:58:31And you?
00:58:35Any word on your sister?
00:58:38I already told you. Dad is on it.
00:58:41I believe Dad is on it when I see Mandy and Jason show up.
00:58:44I should have had my B-8. B-8.
00:58:49Have that one.
00:58:50You know, I was thinking about this yesterday.
00:58:53I never saw two people more right for each other.
00:58:56I know. Those two fit like a glove. If only they would just communicate better.
00:59:01Well, actually, I was talking about you and Greg.
00:59:04Clickety-click. O-66. O-66.
00:59:08Greg and I actually are not anything because I'm with Alec now.
00:59:13I know. That's the problem.
00:59:15I am.
00:59:16Oh, are these two ducks? I-22. Quack, quack. I-22.
00:59:23You used to be such a romantic. You loved happily ever after.
00:59:28And weddings weren't ever a maybe someday for you.
00:59:32It's hard making those big plans. Thank you.
00:59:37I don't really think I can see you forever anymore.
00:59:41Maybe the institution of marriage isn't the issue.
00:59:44Maybe it's marriage with Alec that's giving you pause.
00:59:47Will you still need me? Will you still feed me? When I'm O-64. O-64.
00:59:55Bingo!
00:59:56Bingo! We have a winner.
00:59:58Again.
01:00:00Look at his smug little face.
01:00:04Graham.
01:00:13Ellie, it's your dad.
01:00:15Hey, Dad.
01:00:18I'm coming.
01:00:22Ah, you're here. I've been calling. Hey, guys, we'll see you down at the beach.
01:00:26Yes, I believe that Jason's new passport is arriving today.
01:00:31You don't have to lay it on so thick.
01:00:33We'll find out soon enough if they're actually coming.
01:00:35Yeah, I know, but in the meantime, we need to keep the trains running.
01:00:38And I don't want any of our guests to think that we dragged them all the way here for nothing.
01:00:41No, I know what you mean. What can I do to help?
01:00:44I need you to come down to the beach right now for the rehearsal.
01:00:47Why are we having a rehearsal? We're not sure we're having a wedding.
01:00:50Well, I had a long conversation with Mandy and Jason last night, together.
01:00:56Communication lines are up and running. It went well.
01:00:59Are they on their way?
01:01:01Well, I booked them new tickets, so that's something. And I really hope they're using them.
01:01:06So do I.
01:01:08Yeah, so, please, come down to the beach. Somebody needs to know what to do tomorrow.
01:01:12Okay, I'm going to get ready.
01:01:14Okay.
01:01:26Oh, good.
01:01:27Sorry.
01:01:28Oh, no worries. The maid of honor is here.
01:01:31So, we're all here and accounted for.
01:01:35Except for the two most important people.
01:01:37But all will be well.
01:01:39I've seen it all. No worries.
01:01:41Oh, except for this.
01:01:42You'll be the groom. You'll be the bride.
01:01:44And everybody, take your seat.
01:01:46Groom side and bride side.
01:01:48And stand right here.
01:01:50Now, you're going to help me just for the rehearsal.
01:01:53And then you can update them tomorrow.
01:01:55Yes?
01:01:56I sent Tara everything a couple weeks ago.
01:01:58The verses, the vows. You have all that, right?
01:02:01Well, Tara's office is like a hurricane after two tornadoes.
01:02:04But I did send your sister an email, and she sent me the plan back to me.
01:02:07So, good?
01:02:08Um, it's actually really good news.
01:02:10I've upgraded to the level of cautiously optimistic.
01:02:15Okay, so we may continue.
01:02:17Cue music!
01:02:18Come with me.
01:02:20Thank you.
01:02:21Come on, come on.
01:02:22You take this?
01:02:23Um, okay.
01:02:24I'm your father.
01:02:28We walk down the aisle.
01:02:30Now, we can go a little faster.
01:02:31Just make sure that your sister goes slowly,
01:02:33so everybody can take in her beauty.
01:02:35Yes?
01:02:36Yes.
01:02:37Yes.
01:02:38Si. Okay.
01:02:39Now, stand.
01:02:40Then I...
01:02:41No.
01:02:42Switch.
01:02:43Switch places.
01:02:44You here, you there, bride.
01:02:46Si.
01:02:48No.
01:02:49Hold hands, hold hands.
01:02:53So romantic.
01:02:54And then we move on to...
01:02:56All things are possible when love is present.
01:03:00Neither conflict, nor strife, nor distance
01:03:04can ever destroy true love.
01:03:10Love always wins.
01:03:14Then comes a song, a poem, another song, another poem,
01:03:17a reading, a third poem,
01:03:19and we speak of the traditions of marriage,
01:03:21blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, et cetera.
01:03:22Then vows.
01:03:23And we pledge our love to each other.
01:03:26And we kiss.
01:03:29There.
01:03:31Si.
01:03:32No.
01:03:33No, not you two.
01:03:35The bride and the groom tomorrow.
01:03:37And we pronounce, their husband and wife.
01:03:41And then we all go to have a great time.
01:03:44So this concludes our rehearsal.
01:03:46Thank you.
01:03:47Thank you very much.
01:03:48Okay.
01:03:49All right.
01:03:53Thank you, guys.
01:03:54We got this.
01:03:57Tara?
01:03:58Tara who?
01:04:04Gracias.
01:04:13That was a lovely wedding today.
01:04:15You mean rehearsal.
01:04:17For the actual wedding taking place tomorrow, we hope.
01:04:21I'm not going to beat around the bush with you, Ellie.
01:04:24Why start now?
01:04:27You've been ignoring Alex Coles.
01:04:30Yes.
01:04:31Why?
01:04:32Why?
01:04:34I don't know how I feel anymore.
01:04:37Because of Greg?
01:04:38No.
01:04:39Because of Alec.
01:04:41I just don't really feel like we have the same priorities.
01:04:45Oh, Ellie.
01:04:46Your one great love can break through conflicting priorities.
01:04:51Okay, but how do you know?
01:04:53How do you know it's your one great love or if it's right?
01:04:55Because I thought I knew that with Greg and look at how that turned out.
01:04:59Here's how I knew with your grandfather.
01:05:02The thought of life with him seemed perfect.
01:05:05The thought of life without him was unbearable.
01:05:08That's how you know.
01:05:11Well, we've got to get ready for the rehearsal dinner and God willing, your sister will be there too.
01:05:25You got your favorite one here.
01:05:26Sorry, Grandma.
01:05:27I have to borrow Dad for a sec.
01:05:29Okay.
01:05:32What's up?
01:05:33They're asking how long we want to wait.
01:05:36According to the website, the plane landed three hours ago.
01:05:39We've done this twice already.
01:05:41You tried your hardest, but they're not coming.
01:05:43I think you might be right.
01:05:44I texted and phoned a dozen times and still no response.
01:05:48We have to tell our guests the truth.
01:05:50The wedding is off.
01:05:51You don't have to do this.
01:05:53I'll do it.
01:05:54No, no, no.
01:05:55It's okay.
01:05:56Greg and I have been the ones hiding things from everyone.
01:05:58It's time for us to come clean.
01:06:07I did my best.
01:06:11Hello, everybody.
01:06:12If you could please take your seats.
01:06:14So, um, we just, my family and Jason's family really wants to thank you all for being here and being such good sports about everything, you know, without the guest of honor actually being here.
01:06:34Mandy and Jason really appreciate you all making the trip to come down to celebrate them.
01:06:40You know what?
01:06:41If they were here right now, I feel like what they would want to say is...
01:06:45They would say...
01:06:46Surprise!
01:06:48They're here again.
01:06:49Hop on your bride and groom.
01:06:51Daddy!
01:06:53Oh, finally.
01:07:04Can you believe tomorrow's my wedding day?
01:07:06Yes, Mandy, I can.
01:07:08Because Greg and I have spent the better half of this week entertaining your guests, planning your wedding, juggling a hundred balls for you.
01:07:18I'm really sorry I put you through all of this.
01:07:21I know I don't say it enough, but I appreciate everything you do for me.
01:07:26I know I don't say it enough, but I appreciate everything you do for me.
01:07:33When Jason and I were talking to Dad the other night, I realized some things.
01:07:39Such as?
01:07:42I don't always know how to compromise.
01:07:46I deal with stress terribly.
01:07:50I can be irresponsible.
01:07:54That's it?
01:07:56What, that's not enough for you?
01:07:59No, that's plenty.
01:08:01There's plenty of time for self-reflection later.
01:08:06I mean, I'm not completely blameless here.
01:08:09I think I was using focusing on your life as a distraction from what's really happening in mine.
01:08:16Why? What was really happening in yours?
01:08:19Alec?
01:08:21Yeah, about Alec.
01:08:24You dislike him, I know.
01:08:26Dislike is a strong word.
01:08:29I can't stand him.
01:08:31And he doesn't like me either.
01:08:32Probably because I told him he wasn't good enough for you twice.
01:08:36Mandy!
01:08:37I know, I know. I'm trying to learn to think before I speak.
01:08:42I promise. One of the lessons from all of this wedding drama.
01:08:49This feels like heaven.
01:08:56So, you and Greg seemed to be getting along pretty well.
01:09:00It was pretty intense at first.
01:09:02Gracias.
01:09:03Thank you.
01:09:04But we went through the trenches this week, so I would say we got past things.
01:09:08Yay! I was so hoping that this would happen.
01:09:11It was the golf pairing, right?
01:09:13Wait, you were hoping what would happen?
01:09:15You and Greg reuniting at the wedding.
01:09:18With him being back in L.A. now and all?
01:09:21We could go on double dates again.
01:09:23And we could move into the same cul-de-sac next to each other.
01:09:25Mandy.
01:09:26Like in that old soap opera. And our kids could grow up together and learn to be BFFs.
01:09:29Take it easy. We are just on speaking terms. That's it.
01:09:32Well, it is a big step in the right direction.
01:09:39Sitting on the beach by myself. It's too quiet without you.
01:09:45Go.
01:09:47He's all alone down there.
01:09:50You don't have to take care of me anymore, Ellie.
01:09:53Go take care of you.
01:10:07Look what I found!
01:10:09What?
01:10:10Where did you find that?
01:10:13Okay, I actually just got it from a bar over there.
01:10:17But I did put it on Jason and Mandy because I figured it's the least they could do for us.
01:10:22Yes, yes.
01:10:23Would you do the honor?
01:10:24Of course. Great idea.
01:10:25Mandy and Jason, do O.S.
01:10:28All right.
01:10:31Here you go.
01:10:33Thank you.
01:10:34You're welcome.
01:10:36Do you have a preference?
01:10:38No, but I'll take this one.
01:10:40Cheers.
01:10:48Oh, this is cozy.
01:10:50I like it.
01:10:51I know, right?
01:10:52Do you like the fire?
01:10:53I do.
01:10:54You do?
01:10:55Yeah.
01:10:56Because I made that fire.
01:10:57Oh, really?
01:10:58And it took me five and a half hours, so I hope you really, really like it.
01:11:03Hi.
01:11:04How's Mandy?
01:11:06You know, she's surprisingly really calm. It's kind of eerie.
01:11:10Should we take her to the ER?
01:11:11Maybe.
01:11:13What about Jason?
01:11:15Yeah, he's all kind of easygoing and relaxed. It's weird.
01:11:21Sorry.
01:11:27Sorry, I just can't be bothered right now.
01:11:30Then don't.
01:11:33Let's go in the water.
01:11:35What?
01:11:36Come on.
01:11:37No.
01:11:38No, it's dark and there are creepy crawlies underneath the surface.
01:11:42No, absolutely not.
01:11:43What are you talking about?
01:11:44We'll put our feet in.
01:11:46It's like an inch of water.
01:11:48Do you know what?
01:11:49I'll take an inch of champagne, but I'm not getting in.
01:11:53Do you want some?
01:11:54Yeah, I want some more champagne.
01:11:57Here you go.
01:11:58Thank you.
01:12:00No.
01:12:01We have to, a toast.
01:12:03Right, right.
01:12:04To surviving all of this.
01:12:06Yeah, we made it.
01:12:07We did.
01:12:20Okay, Ellie, I...
01:12:23I have to say this now, otherwise the moments can pass,
01:12:25and I refuse to have any more regrets in my life.
01:12:29I am not sorry they pulled this stunt.
01:12:32Because it brought us here.
01:12:35And there is nowhere else I'd rather be right now.
01:12:37And there's no one else I'd rather be here with.
01:12:40Greg, I...
01:12:41And if I had known then what I know now,
01:12:43I would have turned it all down and I would have put a ring on your finger that day.
01:12:49I still love you, Ellie.
01:12:51I never stopped.
01:13:02Ellie?
01:13:04Alec, what are you doing here?
01:13:08I could ask the same of you.
01:13:10You know what, I'm just going to let you guys talk.
01:13:13Sorry.
01:13:14No.
01:13:20I'm just going to pretend like I didn't see that, because I get it.
01:13:24You get what?
01:13:25All this wedding business, it's made you realize how much you do actually want to get married.
01:13:30I do.
01:13:31You knew that I didn't want to, and you were willing to put that aside,
01:13:33because that's how much you love me.
01:13:36Alec.
01:13:37No, no, no. You win, Ellie. You win.
01:13:39If you want a piece of paper, then that is fine.
01:13:42We'll get a piece of paper.
01:13:44Because that is how much I love you.
01:13:50Oh.
01:13:56Oh, it is.
01:13:58It is so much more than a piece of paper, Alec.
01:14:00It's a commitment that says I choose you.
01:14:04For life.
01:14:05I know.
01:14:08You shouldn't have come.
01:14:10Wait.
01:14:11At first, you're mad at me for not coming, and now you're upset because I'm here?
01:14:15I wanted to love you, and I am so sorry to tell you this.
01:14:19I just don't anymore.
01:14:25Wow, that's not what I was expecting when I got on a plane with a ring in my pocket this afternoon.
01:14:31I don't want to hurt you, because I really do care about you so much.
01:14:36Just not as much as him.
01:14:38You're a good man, and you deserve more than this.
01:14:41You're a good man, and you deserve more than this.
01:14:48Did you ever love me?
01:14:50I never pretended.
01:14:54I just thought I could move on, but I can't.
01:15:03Well, that's what you want, Elliot.
01:15:11Yeah.
01:15:39Ellie!
01:15:40What's wrong? Is everything okay with Mandy?
01:15:42Oh, yeah, yeah. No, everything's fine. I'm actually looking for Greg.
01:15:45I thought he was with you.
01:15:47He was. It's a long story.
01:15:52You scared me there for a second. I thought, you know, maybe Mandy was just...
01:15:57No, no. Oh, she's so excited for tomorrow.
01:16:00And how are you feeling about, you know, things?
01:16:03I am good. I think that we figured everything out, yeah.
01:16:09You think, or you know?
01:16:11I think. I know. I... I don't know. I'm just, like, really nervous. Is that bad?
01:16:18No, no. Feeling nervous is completely normal. It just... it means that it's really important to you.
01:16:25Okay.
01:16:26At my parents' wedding, my dad said he was so nervous that my mom had to get out of her wedding dress to go calm him down.
01:16:31And then she had to go get redressed in this old, beautiful Victorian wedding gown that had, like, a hundred tiny buttons down the back.
01:16:37So, basically, they were 30 minutes late to their own wedding because of tiny buttons. That's true love right there.
01:16:42Sounds like it.
01:16:43Oh, by the way, if you need Mandy tomorrow, her dress has a zipper.
01:16:47Perfect. Uh, Ellie, thank you for everything.
01:16:51It's what family does.
01:17:01Hey, you've reached Greg. I'm not available to take your call right now.
01:17:07Okay.
01:17:25Wake up, sleepyhead. It's your big day today.
01:17:29This is how I look on my wedding day.
01:17:32Well, luckily, you have a professional coming in an hour.
01:17:35Do you want to shower first or should I?
01:17:37No, go ahead.
01:17:38Okay.
01:17:48Any word from him?
01:17:50Nothing.
01:17:52I looked for him everywhere last night. He's not around the resort. He's not at his favorite spot on the beach. He's not answering his calls or texts.
01:18:00Well, he can't hide forever, and you'll see him soon enough.
01:18:05Because I'm getting married today!
01:18:1530 minutes until we're putting you in your dress.
01:18:18Okay.
01:18:21Get in.
01:18:26Hi.
01:18:30Come on.
01:18:32Look, I know you're nervous, but it's like I said last night. It is completely normal, and I promise you today is going to be the best day of your life.
01:18:40Ellie, it's not about me and Mandy, okay? It's Greg. He didn't come back to the room last night.
01:18:45I tried him last night and this morning, and no answer.
01:18:49I've tried a dozen times, too. Nothing.
01:18:52I don't know what to do. He's my best man. I'm getting married in an hour, and I'm freaking out.
01:18:59Yeah, I'm going to freak out, okay? So just, I need you to tell me what to do. Ellie, please, just tell me.
01:19:05First, you are going to get dressed. I will call my dad. I will have him stay with Mandy, and I will go find Greg. Everything will be fine.
01:19:16Okay. Okay. Thank you for everything, really.
01:19:22Get out of here before you accidentally see the bride.
01:19:24Okay.
01:19:25No, no, no, no. Other way.
01:19:26Right this way.
01:19:29Okay.
01:19:45Whoa, isn't it bad luck to see the bridesmaid before the wedding?
01:19:48I've never heard that before. Have you seen Greg?
01:19:51No, not since last night.
01:19:53Greg wanted to get on a plane all of a sudden. We talked him out of it.
01:19:56He was pretty bummed about your boyfriend showing up.
01:19:59Or should we say fiancé? Come on, show us that ring.
01:20:03No, Alec and I broke up.
01:20:05Wait, Greg said he saw you getting engaged.
01:20:08I didn't. We didn't. I'm not engaged. Where was the last place you saw Greg?
01:20:13Down by the beach, near those rocks.
01:20:16Okay.
01:20:17Or maybe he left?
01:20:19Maybe I didn't talk him out of it.
01:20:26Okay.
01:20:28Come on.
01:20:55Ellie.
01:20:58I fell asleep on the beach.
01:21:00Jason's probably freaking out, right?
01:21:02He's completely freaking out.
01:21:04He sent me to come find you.
01:21:06Well, you've done your job.
01:21:08You can go back to Prince Charming.
01:21:11Greg, stop.
01:21:13No, don't stop. Keep walking because you have to get dressed.
01:21:16But I will talk and just listen at the same time.
01:21:20What you saw were two people saying goodbye after a year-long relationship.
01:21:27He's back in L.A. It's over.
01:21:38Because I'm in love with someone else.
01:21:40Someone who is kind and caring and loving and loves my kooky family.
01:21:48I think I was planning my dream wedding all along.
01:21:51I just couldn't really see it because I was with the wrong person.
01:21:56It is so much more than a piece of paper,
01:21:58and I do not need an uncomplicated and easy out.
01:22:02Ever.
01:22:05I won't either.
01:22:17Okay.
01:22:21Love always wins.
01:22:26Love always wins.
01:22:56Love always wins.
