00:00Everything.
00:01I'd rather have her.
00:02I just settled Brenda's estate.
00:04Let me invest in Lumi.
00:05I need you to know that I know that I messed up.
00:08Sylvie's amazing.
00:10I agree.
00:11So why do you keep trying to find something wrong with her?
00:13This is my home.
00:14I always thought love was enough.
00:16Spot opened up in the clinical trial.
00:18It's been.
00:19She passed yesterday morning.
00:21It's not what you've done.
00:22It's who you are.
00:23It's your heart.
00:24That's the whole point of living.
00:30When you choose to love, you always lose.
00:43We all know the risks, and yet we do it anyway.
00:47Isn't that wild?
00:55Is loss such a bad thing?
00:59Can't it motivate us to savor every kiss and every hug?
01:04We always think we have more time.
01:08What if instead, we choose to embrace what it is, or what it was, with love?
01:16And know it made a difference.
01:20Oh gosh, this is better.
01:29You do know they sell shampoo across state lines, right?
01:35Ugh.
01:36Ugh.
01:37How am I going on tour?
01:38This doesn't make sense.
01:39Oh, it makes sense to me.
01:40John must be excited for you.
01:41Doesn't feel like it, honestly.
01:42I get that he doesn't love that I'll be gone for the holidays, but when I asked him to come out with me, he said it was too much time off work.
01:48Well, he's not the only one who gets to be successful.
01:49He's acting weird.
01:50I can't put my finger on it.
01:51It's like he's annoyed or something.
01:53And you've told him this?
01:54No.
01:55But you will, right?
01:56I will.
01:57God, when you make that face, it's chilling.
01:58What face?
01:59This face?
02:00Yes.
02:01Yes.
02:02Yes.
02:03Yes.
02:04Yes.
02:05Yes.
02:06Yes.
02:07Yes.
02:08Yes.
02:09Yes.
02:10Yes.
02:11Yes.
02:12Yes.
02:13Yes.
02:14Yes.
02:15Yes.
02:16Yes.
02:17Yes.
02:18Yes.
02:19Yes.
02:20Yes.
02:21Yes.
02:22Yes.
02:23Yes.
02:24Have you made any plans?
02:25No.
02:26I rather enjoyed the annual festivities at the label.
02:30The food, the cocktails.
02:33I'll likely stay in this year.
02:35I don't mind a solo dinner.
02:37When I was little, my dad used to make the most delicious roast on Boxing Day.
02:42Well, you can make it your own.
02:43Dinner with a holiday cocktail.
02:45Hmm.
02:46You can call it Christmas.
02:49Holy .
02:50Okay.
02:51I'm gonna go before you write a song about it.
02:53One more thing.
02:54No, don't.
02:55I know what you're gonna ask.
02:57It's crazy you won't even be at one show.
02:59I feel like I crushed your record label dream.
03:01No, it wasn't you.
03:03Well, it kind of was actually.
03:05What?
03:06Oh my God.
03:07Don't.
03:08We're not doing this now.
03:09Please tell me you're not quitting for good.
03:11Oh.
03:12I was at Vesi almost 20 years and then it was over in the flip of a switch.
03:17I need to be productive.
03:18I just don't know what that looks like at the moment.
03:20Plenty of young musicians in the city could use a Chris.
03:23Hmm.
03:25What?
03:26Oh, you're just reminding me of this therapeutic music class at the hospital for kids in treatment.
03:33Finn used to chastise them loudly for playing off beat, which they often did.
03:41Sounds like they could use a Chris.
03:43Hmm.
03:44Yeah, she is very excited about that sleepover tomorrow night.
03:48Yeah, I know.
03:49I'm gonna order like a very large pizza and watch a movie.
03:52No, a whole movie?
03:53I know, from start to finish.
03:55Well, easy now.
03:59Oh.
04:03I don't think I've been away from her for this long.
04:07We're gonna FaceTime every morning.
04:09Yeah.
04:10And Houston's only an hour behind.
04:11Yeah, it's gonna be great.
04:12And I'm just finding things to be needlessly sad about.
04:16What's that?
04:17Oh.
04:19This is my holiday bonus.
04:23A candle.
04:24This is usually where I would take a jab at your boss for being so cheap,
04:27but I'd kind of be a hypocrite.
04:30I can't afford to give bonuses this year, especially Ellis.
04:34It's all right.
04:35Okay, I'm out of here.
04:36Hang on.
04:42Um.
04:53There's a story.
04:54Do I want to hear it?
04:55I think we should sit.
04:57I think we should.
04:59Uh.
05:00Here.
05:01I'll just, uh.
05:02Uh.
05:03How?
05:04How do you?
05:05Okay, so the last time that your mom came over, you had just gotten your diagnosis.
05:08It was a lot.
05:09And, uh, there was this moment.
05:11What kind of moment?
05:12Uh, I started crying.
05:13And then she felt bad.
05:14Well, by feel bad, I mean she wanted me to stop crying.
05:16Right.
05:17So she had this diamond ring that she had bought on a whim and she told me to keep it.
05:22So you...
05:23I sold it.
05:25Once I knew we didn't need the money for the experimental treatment, I was able to pay
05:30in advance on Anna's tuition.
05:32And then I spoke to hospital billing and I had them lower the final bill so that we could
05:37pay it off.
05:38I'm sorry, I don't really know what to say.
05:42Millie Perry needs less jewelry, sure, so I think you did her a favor.
05:46I just want to be honest with you.
05:48And I admit, I initially had a very different plan for this money.
05:55And then you got this infection and something clicked.
06:05I realized that I had a problem.
06:08That I have a problem.
06:10So I started talking to someone, which I should have done a long time ago.
06:16But I'm doing it now.
06:18And this is what's left.
06:21So...
06:23Bonus money?
06:25Bonus money?
06:26I...
06:40That's a really cool camera you got there.
06:41Oh, thanks.
06:42It was a gift.
06:43Oh my gosh, someone must really love you.
06:45Yeah.
06:46To and from me.
06:47To and from me.
06:48Oh God, I gotta learn to love myself more.
06:49You have to.
06:50That's a really cool camera you got there.
07:04Oh, thanks. It was a gift.
07:06Oh, my God. Someone must really love you.
07:09Yeah. To and from me.
07:13Oh, God. I got to learn to love myself more.
07:16Well, you have to. Everyone else is just a bonus.
07:19Yeah.
07:20Happy Holidays.
07:24Yeah, you too.
07:25Happy Holidays.
07:32Happy Holidays.
07:35Happy Holidays.
07:37Happy Holidays.
07:39So total answers to someone's ears to cheer tonight, and I want to spend my Christmas with you, I want to spend my Christmas with you, I want to spend my Christmas with you the rest of my life.
08:09This tree is fantastic, y'all.
08:15Oh, thank you.
08:17You got the new ornaments and everything?
08:19Yeah.
08:20Wow.
08:21Yeah.
08:23This is Rebecca's, I found it, and I'm not gonna keep it.
08:26Oh.
08:28Okay, I'll just, uh...
08:32I'm gonna take this now. Release.
08:35Go ahead.
08:36It's okay, I'll guard this with my life.
08:39I trust you.
08:45Breakups suck.
08:46They do?
08:47Mm-hmm.
08:48And I'm here for you, if you want to talk about it, or not talk about it.
08:51Yeah, I still don't want to talk about it, but I appreciate that, thank you.
08:54Okay.
08:55Oh, oh my goodness, yes. I have something that is 100% going to cheer you up.
09:02Okay.
09:03All right.
09:04Uh...
09:07Merry Christmas.
09:08For me?
09:09Uh-huh.
09:10Mm.
09:14How...
09:16How are you doing this right now?
09:17It's a long and very weird story that you don't need to hear.
09:19And don't give me that look right now.
09:21You deserve it.
09:22You have really been there for me.
09:25Why do you always do this to me?
09:26I cried too much this week.
09:27Oh, God.
09:28I need to hug you now.
09:29That's the kind thing to do.
09:30You don't have to hug me.
09:31Okay, that was weird.
09:32Yeah, it's too long.
09:33Anyway...
09:34I'm gonna hand this out to the rest of the staff.
09:35What's the plan?
09:36And I feel like Santa Claus.
09:37His beard's cuter, though.
09:38Wow, that kindness didn't last long, huh?
09:40Hey, do me a favor.
09:41Don't spend that on student loans, or bills, or anything responsible.
09:43Okay.
09:44Okay.
09:45Okay.
09:47Okay.
09:50Okay.
09:51Okay.
09:52Okay.
09:53Okay.
09:54Okay.
09:55Okay.
09:56Okay.
09:57Okay.
09:59Okay.
10:00I swear I'm not dodging your calls, babe.
10:04December is the craziest month, and I've been doing double shifts.
10:07So come over after your shift.
10:08It'll be late.
10:09So what?
10:10Can we talk about it later?
10:11I'm just about to head into the store.
10:13Okay.
10:14I miss you.
10:15Bye.
10:20I'm so happy you asked to do this.
10:22We could always use extra volunteers.
10:24I brought some instruments along.
10:26Thought we could mix it up a bit.
10:27I hope that's okay.
10:28Of course it is.
10:29We're here.
10:30Oh.
10:31Oh, wow.
10:32Okay.
10:33Um.
10:34All right, kids.
10:35Let's find the beach.
10:36Have a good day.
10:37Bye.
10:38Is Nate around?
10:39Yeah.
10:40He's in his office.
10:41Hey, did you decorate this tree?
10:42I did.
10:43It's beautiful.
10:45Oh, what's that?
10:46What?
10:47A black Santa.
10:48Oh.
10:49Oh.
10:50Oh.
10:51Oh.
10:52Oh, I...
10:53I hadn't...
10:54Did you get this for me?
10:55No.
10:56I got it.
10:57Maybe subconsciously.
10:58I did.
10:59I got it.
11:00I got it.
11:01I got it for you.
11:02I don't know.
11:03Is that a weird thing to do?
11:04I don't know.
11:05Alice, I love it.
11:06It's very thoughtful.
11:07Merry Christmas.
11:08You got a minute?
11:09Yeah, yeah.
11:10Come in.
11:11Have a seat.
11:12What's up?
11:13What's up?
11:14We never finish the conversation we started.
11:15Oh.
11:16Oh.
11:17Oh.
11:18Oh.
11:19Oh.
11:20Oh.
11:21Oh.
11:22Oh.
11:23Oh.
11:24Oh.
11:25Oh.
11:26Oh.
11:27Oh.
11:28Oh.
11:29Oh.
11:30Oh.
11:31Oh.
11:32Oh.
11:33Oh.
11:34Oh.
11:35Oh.
11:36Oh.
11:37What?
11:38A few weeks ago?
11:39Which conversation was that?
11:40The conversation that we were about to have before you passed out.
11:43Yes.
11:44I...
11:45Even in my semi-comatose state.
11:47I meant to talk to you about this last week.
11:49It's a very generous offer.
11:50Yeah.
11:51And I've had some time to give it some thought.
11:53Hold on.
11:54Don't say a word.
11:55I can actually say...
11:56Word.
11:57If I can...
11:59I've had the privilege of sitting at that bar, week after week,
12:04watching couples meet, friends laugh and co-workers toast.
12:12People want to spend their time here.
12:15Now, Brenda was the reason I first walked through that door.
12:19What you have built here is the reason it keeps me coming back.
12:24This place, I know it's yours, but it's not just yours.
12:28I'm in a position to help.
12:32Please, let me.
12:34So, Walter, the idea of closing Lumi keeps me up at night.
12:45For the longest time, I thought that if I could just get an investor,
12:49that that would solve all the problems.
12:51Right.
12:52But it's not what I need.
12:55What I need is a partner.
12:58Somebody who loves this place as much as I do.
13:00And I don't think you love this place as much as I do.
13:06I think you love it more.
13:12Which I didn't think was possible.
13:16Business partners.
13:20Is that a yes?
13:23There we go.
13:27Yes!
13:30That's quite a handshake.
13:31I could act like I wasn't eavesdropping.
13:34But I was.
13:35Oh.
13:36What?
13:37Yeah.
13:38A toast.
13:39Sparkling cider.
13:40Oh.
13:41Yeah.
13:42Good.
13:43Yeah.
13:44Okay.
13:45Hey, look.
13:46First order of business.
13:47Uh-huh.
13:48Change the name to Walter's Place.
13:49Yeah.
13:50I'm gonna veto that.
13:51Okay.
13:52Oh.
13:53Hey.
13:54Walter West.
13:55That has a nice ring to it.
13:56Yes.
13:57It does.
13:58Yeah.
13:59Yeah.
14:00Yeah.
14:01Yeah.
14:02Yeah.
14:03Yeah.
14:07Hi, Arya.
14:08I'm calling because you never rescheduled your last...
14:11Are you not rescheduling because you're leaving?
14:14You've done Zoom sessions before?
14:17I'm taking a break.
14:22What?
14:23Nothing.
14:24There is obviously something.
14:28I'm not sure you should take a break from therapy right now.
14:36But it's your call.
14:43Okay.
14:44You take the lid off.
14:45Lid off.
14:46And you're gonna pour the full contents of it into your cup.
14:48All right.
14:49Yeah.
14:50Perfect.
14:51Got it.
14:52Ellis, is everyone a yes for tonight?
14:54What are you talking about?
14:55Like, is everybody that's on the guest list, are they coming?
14:58Is what I'm asking.
14:59You mean, is Chris coming?
15:01I mean, is everyone that was invited, maybe including her, coming tonight?
15:07Yes, Chris is coming tonight.
15:08I don't care if she does.
15:09It's okay.
15:10Okay.
15:11You know, I just, I wanted to know.
15:12This is gonna be a packed house.
15:13Mm-hmm.
15:14Mm-hmm.
15:15I could take a moment to think it through.
15:24Oh, but all I'm gonna do today is find a way to be with you.
15:30Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
15:39Hello, hello.
15:40Oh, my God, no way.
15:41Wow.
15:42Oh.
15:43Wow, oh, okay.
15:44You didn't tell me Shay was coming.
15:45I didn't know she was coming.
15:46Aw.
15:47Have you been?
15:48No, don't worry.
15:49I know you've pushed pause on the sommelier services, so I just come as a friend, but
16:04I'm bearing gifts.
16:05Yay!
16:06Two reds and a white, a new winery in North Carolina.
16:11Nice.
16:12That's fantastic.
16:14Very kind.
16:15This is my new business partner, Walter.
16:16That is great.
16:17Wonderful to meet you.
16:18Well, pleasure to meet you.
16:19And what great timing.
16:21I've never met a sommelier before, and there are some questions I would like to ask if you
16:25don't mind.
16:26Well, that would be wonderful.
16:27Yeah?
16:28And you know what they say, everything happens for a Riesling.
16:32Oh, yeah, yeah.
16:34The wine fun's really still.
16:36Now, I will say that some sommeliers go nuts over devices like this, and others just hate
16:41them.
16:42I personally love them.
16:44Aeration really just lets them mellow.
16:47Oh.
16:48Go ahead.
16:50Mmm.
16:51Mmm.
16:52What?
16:53Do you taste the difference?
16:57Well, I thought I'd have to lie, but actually, I do.
17:04No, no.
17:05You keep that.
17:06The more wines that you sample, the more sophisticated your palate will become.
17:10Okay.
17:11Have you ever been to Napa?
17:12No, no.
17:13Actually, I don't like to fly.
17:16Every few years, my wife would get the itch for Hawaii, so then I could just get over my
17:23nerves.
17:24Well, if you ever want to learn from the best of the best, my old mentor gives a viticulture
17:30and wine course at the beginning of every year.
17:33It's probably full.
17:34I'd be happy to make a call for you.
17:37And you don't need to fly.
17:39You can always take the Amtrak.
17:47So, what are we thinking?
17:49Like, Santa baby?
17:50Or maybe like a Mariah Carey moment?
17:52All I want for Christmas?
17:54Or, how about a duet?
17:58Ooh.
17:59Very cool.
18:00Who with?
18:02Why are you looking at me like that?
18:04Me?
18:05Because I've heard you sing.
18:06No.
18:07No.
18:08I sing behind the bar and in the shower.
18:13It'll be so far.
18:15Yeah.
18:16Yeah.
18:17Really?
18:18Yeah.
18:19I'll do it.
18:20Okay.
18:21But there is a song I would like to do, like, specifically.
18:24Okay.
18:25If you're okay with that.
18:26Yes.
18:27Oh, my God.
18:28I'm so down.
18:29Banned.
18:30I have called four stores.
18:33And the last employee I spoke to said that you had it in stock.
18:37That good Christmas.
18:39No.
18:40No.
18:41I want the black Santa in the white suit, not the red.
18:43I don't want the red.
18:44Oh, good.
18:45You do have it in stock.
18:46That is great.
18:47Okay.
18:48Yes.
18:49You too.
18:50Happy holiday.
18:51Okay.
18:52I'll be there to pick it up.
18:54You know what's really annoying?
18:55Getting caught behind tourists.
18:56I don't know why they have to congregate like that in the middle of the sidewalk.
19:01Sorry I'm late.
19:02Hi.
19:03Hi.
19:04Hi.
19:05Hi.
19:06Hi.
19:07It was incredible.
19:08I'm thinking of contacting a few friends in the industry to help me set up classes and hospitals
19:14all around the city.
19:15I love that.
19:16I think that's a great idea.
19:17Are you all set for Houston then?
19:18On paper.
19:19I just, I keep feeling like I'm, like I'm volleying between these two sides and I'm
19:24going to go.
19:25I'm going to go to Houston and I'm going to go to the sidewalk.
19:26I'm going to go to the sidewalk.
19:27Sorry I'm late.
19:28Hi.
19:29Hi.
19:30Hi.
19:31It was incredible.
19:32I'm thinking of contacting a few friends in the industry to help me set up classes and
19:33hospitals all around the city.
19:34I love that.
19:35I think that's a great idea.
19:36Are you all set for Houston then?
19:38On paper.
19:41I just, I keep feeling like I'm, like I'm volleying between these two sides.
19:46of me.
19:47Like there's the one side of me that believes that everything's going to be okay.
19:51I'd go to Houston.
19:52I'm going to come back cancer free.
19:54And that is it.
19:57Then there is the other side of me that, uh.
20:02Nate, I've read, I've read all about this trial.
20:05It, the success rate is so high.
20:08You're finally going to cross the finish line.
20:11Everything's going to be okay.
20:15How do you know?
20:17I just do.
20:20I talked to Finn's parents the other day.
20:26They're just truly incredible people.
20:29Raised incredible kids.
20:30Mm.
20:31I don't really know how to reconcile this.
20:34Like I have this question that just keeps playing over and over in my head.
20:38What question?
20:39Why am I the one that gets to be here?
20:45Sorry.
20:46Um, can I steal you real quick?
20:48We have a song question.
20:49Um.
20:50Yes.
20:51I understand.
20:52Sorry.
20:53It's alright.
20:54What do you think?
20:55You'll make it through.
20:56You'll make it through.
20:58Cause there must be a reason.
21:02Tell me something.
21:03Give me hope for the night.
21:04We don't know how we feel.
21:09We're just praying that we're doing this right.
21:24Though that's not the way it seems.
21:25Summer's gone.
21:26Now winter's on its way.
21:31I will miss the days we had.
21:36The days we had.
21:41I will miss the days we had.
21:55I will miss the days we had
22:03The days we had
22:07Oh, I'll miss the days we had
22:15Loving, leaving, it's too late for this now
22:21Such a steam for each has gone
22:26Well, do you have to go?
22:31Come on, let's look up the Amtrak schedule.
22:33No, no, no.
22:33I'm doing it.
22:34No, I already have been invited to Eddie's for Christmas dinner
22:38and Al is doing a New Year's thing
22:40and I'll probably be going to that.
22:42No offense, but neither of those sound like a cross-country train
22:45to the West Coast or a wine tasting.
22:48It's not wine tasting.
22:50It's a ten-day course in wine and viticulture.
22:55It sounds like you looked it up.
22:57Okay, you guys are so fixated on me.
23:00What are your plans for the holiday?
23:04Stop deflecting.
23:06I'm just not a last-minute-plan kind of guy.
23:09No, but you are a train guy.
23:13See, leaves the day after tomorrow from Penn Station.
23:16Plenty of time to pack.
23:20Loving, leaving, it's too late for this and now.
23:26Such esteem for each has gone.
23:31Has time-driven our season away?
23:36Because that's just the way it seems.
23:43In the world of the speech that is new,
23:49I'll be back again to stay.
23:53Again to stay.
23:55Smile.
24:01You're such a Christmas spirit.
24:03Can I? May I?
24:04Do it.
24:05No, you go.
24:06You go.
24:06Wait, wait, shall I strike a pose?
24:08I mean, I...
24:09Oh, okay.
24:09That's good.
24:10Oh, that is a nice...
24:12It's a tune-y from me.
24:15Turns out I love myself.
24:17As one should.
24:18Exactly.
24:19And where's Sylvie, by the way?
24:21Uh, she's not coming.
24:22She's at work.
24:23Right.
24:23Again.
24:24Okay.
24:24And the way things are going,
24:26I don't think I'll see her before the new year.
24:27You can always go to her place.
24:30I don't...
24:30Just a suggestion.
24:32For that expression.
24:33He's on it.
24:34Great.
24:34Great idea.
24:35So I want you.
24:36I want personality.
24:37Yes.
24:38Yes.
24:38I want a little bit of fear.
24:40Apparently it's not a drill.
24:57It's actually my...
24:58It's my first night in the building.
25:03Yeah.
25:04Well, just so you know,
25:05there was no actual fire.
25:06It was mostly just a lot of smoke
25:08and, uh, burnt window curtain.
25:12Wait a second.
25:16This was you?
25:17You caused this?
25:18Yeah.
25:19I did.
25:23Well, I mean,
25:25the good news is
25:26I got to meet my first neighbor.
25:27So, Jack.
25:30I'm Claire.
25:32Right.
25:34Looks like it's going to be a while.
25:35You know,
25:36I was going to head up the street
25:37and grab a slice.
25:39Care to join me?
25:40Claire?
25:52I never get tired
25:54of listening to me sing.
25:56Aw, thanks, Tara.
25:58Now, um,
26:00I know you're going to be on the road,
26:01so I put together
26:03a playlist for you
26:04and it has a little bit
26:05of everything.
26:06So, Sylvie's the master at this,
26:09but I think I got the hang of it.
26:11Oh, my gosh.
26:11All right.
26:12I hope you like it.
26:13Homemade playlists are my favorite.
26:14Oh, well.
26:16Well, where is, uh,
26:18John tonight?
26:20Got it.
26:21Um,
26:22uh,
26:23home.
26:24Hmm.
26:25Yeah,
26:25Saturday wasn't feeling well.
26:26Well, I'm sure he's exhausted.
26:28I bet you guys been partying hard
26:29since you got the news.
26:30Yeah.
26:32We are all
26:33so very excited for you.
26:37I got it.
26:38I got it.
26:39I will clean up.
26:40Let's go.
26:40Don't worry.
26:41Bye.
26:42Bye.
26:42Get home safe.
26:43Get home safe.
26:43Get home safe.
26:45Get home safe.
26:46Business partner.
26:47Like,
26:48on this side.
26:49Starts tomorrow.
26:50Tomorrow.
26:50Tomorrow.
26:51I will be here.
26:52All right.
26:52Mm-hmm.
26:53Go, go, go, go.
26:56So.
26:58So?
26:59There's something I actually
27:03wanted to talk to you about.
27:05I actually wanted to talk about
27:06something with you.
27:08Should we rock,
27:09paper, scissors,
27:09or?
27:10Mm-hmm.
27:11I think that might take
27:12a little too long.
27:13Okay.
27:15When I saw you
27:16that day
27:18at the hospital,
27:21it hit me.
27:22whew,
27:25why am I so sweaty
27:26all of a sudden?
27:27Are you hot?
27:28I'm really hot.
27:29Okay.
27:29I'm not,
27:30but it's okay.
27:31I'm okay.
27:32I can do this.
27:33Yeah, you got it.
27:33What I want to say is
27:35I stopped envisioning
27:37my life with a partner
27:38a long time ago.
27:41Arm's length
27:42had been working for me,
27:43and then
27:44you.
27:49I am tired
27:50of putting up walls.
27:51I don't want to do it anymore.
27:53I need you to know
27:54that
27:55I am all in.
27:58I want to come to Houston
27:59to support you through this.
28:02And I know that Claire and Anna
28:04will be coming
28:05and that you'll need your space
28:06and I promise
28:07not to get in the way.
28:08But I was...
28:09Stop.
28:10Okay?
28:15I need to press pause on this.
28:21Oh.
28:24I can explain.
28:25No.
28:26But I...
28:26You don't owe me an explanation.
28:27No, I do.
28:28Because I...
28:29Wait, please.
28:32I want you to know
28:34I love being with you.
28:45I do.
28:49But a lot has happened,
28:51and I don't know
28:52how this is gonna go.
28:55You know?
28:56And I feel...
28:57I feel like I am...
28:58I am...
28:59standing on the edge
29:01of a cliff.
29:04And I don't know
29:05if I'm gonna...
29:09I just can't allow you
29:10to take a chance on me
29:11right now.
29:14I see.
29:17Well, that's that, then.
29:19I'll support you from afar.
29:21Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
29:23Wait a minute.
29:23Just stay.
29:24Just stay for a second.
29:25Just stay.
29:29We'll save Travis.
29:30We'll save Travis.
29:34This, the Monstera,
29:47gets one cup of water
29:48once a week.
29:52And peace, Lily,
29:55will tell you
29:57when it's thirsty.
29:58Hmm.
29:58Yeah.
30:00Is it fair to say
30:01that I am
30:02petrified
30:03of killing your garden?
30:04I mean,
30:04I don't have
30:05the best track record.
30:07I don't have
30:08the greenest them.
30:10If I
30:11am gonna learn
30:12about wine,
30:12then you
30:13are going to learn
30:14about plants.
30:16Fair enough.
30:17Mm-hmm.
30:20It's a big deal,
30:21this trip.
30:22Hey?
30:23Took some convincing,
30:25but
30:25we all need that
30:26now and again,
30:27don't we?
30:28Yeah.
30:30It's important
30:31to have friends
30:32who push you,
30:34know what you need
30:35and when
30:36you need it.
30:39Agreed.
30:39Did you get a chance
30:41to speak with Nate?
30:42Oh,
30:43I did.
30:44He said he
30:45needs to press pause.
30:48Probably for the best.
30:50I don't know about that.
30:52He said
30:53he felt like
30:54he was standing
30:54on the edge
30:55of a cliff.
30:56what every woman
30:58wants to hear.
30:59He may be standing
31:00on the edge
31:00of a cliff,
31:02but
31:02one day
31:04he's gonna realize
31:05that
31:05it's a lot more fun
31:07going down
31:09holding someone's hand.
31:12can we talk?
31:26Okay,
31:27I know you're pissed at me
31:28because I didn't go
31:28to the holiday party.
31:30I didn't think
31:30it was a good idea.
31:31Well,
31:31so you're putting it on me.
31:32I didn't,
31:32I didn't say that.
31:34You didn't have to.
31:34It's always on me.
31:35Okay,
31:36can we,
31:36can we have one conversation
31:37without turning it
31:38into a fight?
31:38You're doing it again.
31:40Why are you even with me?
31:41Stop!
31:42Seriously!
31:42No, I hate when you say that.
31:43You could be living
31:44an entirely different life.
31:45A single guy in the city
31:46dating whoever you want,
31:48whenever you want.
31:48Instead,
31:49you meet some random girl
31:50from New Jersey
31:51and a year later
31:52you ask her to marry us.
31:53Arya!
31:53It never made sense.
31:54You're spinning right now.
31:55That's what you're doing.
31:55You're spinning.
31:56No, I think it makes you
31:57feel better to say that.
31:58What are you talking?
31:59Okay, look,
31:59can we just take one time out?
32:01All you want
32:02is someone to take care of
32:03and I don't need you
32:05to do that anymore.
32:06I'm not trying
32:06to take care of you.
32:07It's like you want me to fail.
32:08I don't!
32:09Okay, so what is it?
32:10It's that you can't expect
32:11me to hop on board
32:12with all of this
32:12when not that long ago
32:13was picking you up
32:14off the floor
32:14because you were
32:15curled up into a ball.
32:16Do you have any idea
32:17what that's like for me?
32:18To dread coming home some days
32:19not sure what kind of shape
32:21you'd be in?
32:21I'm worried about you.
32:23Please don't act like
32:24this is coming out of nowhere.
32:37The car's here.
32:43I'll, uh,
32:44I'll walk you down, okay?
32:46No, no.
32:47Oh, yeah.
32:48Can you just...
32:51Just...
32:52I'll walk you down.
33:08Let's go.
33:38Yeah, I heard you, but I don't care.
33:40Honestly, it's better she's not around.
33:42These last few months have been beyond brutal.
33:56One sec.
34:08Yeah, sorry.
34:12Uh...
34:14Listen, I appreciate the call,
34:16but like I said, I don't care.
34:18Desi and I are not on speaking terms.
34:20I wish you best of luck at the Boston office.
34:24Yeah.
34:28Yeah.
34:30Yeah.
34:32Yeah.
34:34Yeah.
34:35Yeah.
34:59Hey.
35:00Hey.
35:01Uh...
35:02Woo.
35:03Turns out there's mold in my apartment too.
35:05Hey.
35:06What?
35:07Really?
35:08No.
35:09But, uh...
35:11Can I still stay over?
35:15Please?
35:16Just eat.
35:22Come eat.
35:23Come eat.
35:24Come eat.
35:37Would you like another?
35:38Please.
35:39Yoink.
35:43My ex recommended this place,
35:44and I wanted so badly to hate it.
35:46Sigh.
35:47I, uh...
35:48I can be rude to you if that helps.
35:54Be honest.
35:55How many people talk to you about their breakups?
35:57Everyone.
35:58Everyone.
35:59I don't mind at all.
36:01I just know that some people need to talk.
36:03I, uh...
36:04I recently went through one myself.
36:06Wanna talk about it?
36:07No.
36:08Understood.
36:12I, um...
36:14I tend to read a lot more when I'm sad.
36:17I don't know if you're one of those people.
36:19Yeah.
36:20The last few weeks I've been buried in philosophy.
36:22Ooh.
36:23Ooh.
36:24All these contrasting ideas on, like, love and loss.
36:27When you think about it,
36:28most of our conversations are focused on one of those things.
36:31Or both.
36:32Mm-hmm.
36:33Like this one.
36:34Oh, my God, so true.
36:35Oh, my God.
36:36Yeah, there's, like,
36:37so many different perspectives.
36:39There's this one concept.
36:40When you choose to love, you always lose.
36:43Like, we all know the risks, and yet we do it anyway.
36:46Isn't that wild?
36:48And, like...
36:51Is loss such a bad thing?
36:53I mean, like, yeah, it hurts.
36:54Like, I get that.
36:55But can't it motivate us to savor every kiss and every hug?
37:02We always think we have more time.
37:04What if, instead, we chose to embrace what it is,
37:09or what it was, with love?
37:15And know that it made a difference.
37:20Anyway.
37:22Oh, thank you.
37:23Stop.
37:24Victor.
37:25Ellis.
37:26Uh, don't tell your ex.
37:28Oh, it wouldn't matter.
37:29He only hears the sound of his own voice.
37:31Oh.
37:32Oh, God.
37:33Yeah.
37:34Not one of those.
37:35Hey, uh, may I?
37:36Oh, my God.
37:37Yeah?
37:38Yeah, go for it.
37:39Absolutely.
37:46Wow.
37:47I'm working on a piece for New York Magazine.
37:50The idea is to capture the collective experience through the locals.
37:55Strangers who gather in neighborhood places.
37:59If you have a portfolio, I'd love to take a look.
38:06Yeah, I would love to show you.
38:09Great.
38:10I'll give you my number.
38:11Great.
38:12So you get what I'm going for, right?
38:14Sure.
38:15It's a great idea.
38:16I'm working with kids, but it makes sense.
38:18You've got a huge heart.
38:19All right.
38:20Stop complimenting me.
38:21I'm still cross with you.
38:23Oh, I know.
38:24But I'm happy you called, though.
38:25Yeah.
38:26I missed you.
38:27Yeah, me too.
38:29All right.
38:30I need to get home.
38:31The in-laws are waiting on me for dinner.
38:33Oh, well, that makes me feel much better about my solo rest.
38:36Talk soon?
38:37Yeah.
38:38Happy holidays.
38:39You too.
38:43Bye.
38:44See you.
38:46Did you forget something?
38:56Flight 183 from New York to Madrid is now boarding.
39:01Priority passengers please approach the desk.
39:04Mallory.
39:05Flight 192 to Chicago is now delayed.
39:06Flight 192 to Chicago is now delayed.
39:18No.
39:19Flight 192 to Chicago is now delayed.
39:25Flight 192 to Chicago is now delayed.
39:29Chris, someone mentioned that you're a plantsitter now, so I'm adding one more to your list.
39:56But don't worry, she won't be a bother.
39:59We never got to finish our conversation the other night, and I couldn't leave without you knowing how I feel about Bamboo, of course.
40:10You know, I didn't want Bamboo at first. There was no space.
40:14Timing seemed off, and yet, she grew on me.
40:19Maybe things would have been different if we had run into each other sooner or later.
40:24It's a curious thing, this idea of timing.
40:27We move in and out of each other's lives.
40:29Sometimes by choice, and sometimes, you don't get to choose.
40:38We may never know or understand why all of these conflicting emotions happening at the same exact time.
40:46Which leads me to this.
40:48Just because I have to let Bamboo go right now, doesn't mean that I won't miss her.
40:53So much so, it hurts.
40:55Please take care of her while I'm gone, and when I get back, I hope to find her at the bar, where we first collided all those months ago.
41:05You'd think that's when all this started, but maybe our journey is only just beginning.
41:11Oh, can you?
