00:00:12It's all a mystery to wait and see which way the wind will blow.
00:00:23But I know how much I love you.
00:00:28Yes, I know.
00:00:47You heard that singing?
00:00:49That was me, singing my favorite song, Yes I Know.
00:00:54It's the song my wife and I fell in love to.
00:01:02And these are some of the places where we fell in love.
00:01:11New York is such a magical place.
00:01:15You feel like anything can happen.
00:01:18We fell in love in winter, so it's my favorite time of the year.
00:01:24I fell for the most beautiful woman I ever met, Barbara.
00:01:31I'm the luckiest guy in the world.
00:01:47Here's a place I sometimes work.
00:01:54This is where I live.
00:01:58And these are my best friends.
00:01:59As you can see, they're glamorous.
00:02:04These are my parents.
00:02:06You know what those are like.
00:02:11These are the people I care about.
00:02:14They're special, just like New York.
00:02:22This is my son, Chris.
00:02:24I'm proud of him.
00:02:27And this is Barbara.
00:02:32Isn't she something?
00:02:38I'm James.
00:02:39Oh, I forgot to say, we got divorced.
00:02:44But I'm still in love with her.
00:02:46And I want her back.
00:02:49I want her back bad.
00:02:52Love.
00:02:53Repeat.
00:02:54Get it?
00:02:55I want her back.
00:03:01Bye.
00:03:02Bye.
00:03:04Bye.
00:03:07Bye.
00:03:12Bye.
00:03:13Bye.
00:03:27Bye.
00:03:28With dating, the main thing you have to do is criticize her slightly, then compliment her
00:03:32immediately.
00:03:34It confuses them, then they can't resist you.
00:03:38And remember, we're both geeks, but with a sexy edge.
00:03:43That's my boy.
00:03:51Ho, ho, ho.
00:03:53It really puts me in the holiday mood.
00:03:57This place is fancy.
00:04:00I've never been to a rare book room before.
00:04:03You're in publishing.
00:04:04And you work for a bank.
00:04:06Yeah, I could never get a loan myself, though.
00:04:09Bad credit.
00:04:10I won't tell money magazine.
00:04:13Do you have children?
00:04:15One.
00:04:16One.
00:04:16Leandra.
00:04:17She's just like me.
00:04:18She tells the truth even when she shouldn't.
00:04:20Oh, I wish she'd go into politics.
00:04:25James, I hope you'll excuse me.
00:04:29My sister tells me I have a lot of opinions.
00:04:32She tells me you shouldn't judge people right away.
00:04:35You should get to know them a few minutes.
00:04:36And I have to tell you, I don't find you attractive.
00:04:44Physically.
00:04:45Oh.
00:04:46That's OK.
00:04:47I get that a lot.
00:04:52Really?
00:04:53Yeah.
00:04:54It's OK.
00:04:56OK.
00:04:57Woo.
00:04:59Sorry.
00:05:00Yeah.
00:05:01Yeah.
00:05:02You don't have to.
00:05:02You can relax now.
00:05:04OK.
00:05:04We can just.
00:05:05Well, yeah.
00:05:06Like, read a book or something.
00:05:08If you feel like reading.
00:05:10I don't really, like, read.
00:05:14Ace, that one.
00:05:16But it's hard to compare anyone to Barbara.
00:05:20She's sort of like Helen of Troy to me.
00:05:37See what I mean?
00:05:39It explains the Trojan War.
00:05:52Sorry, Speakman.
00:05:54Daddy will get you to school despite his existential angst.
00:05:58Last minute rehearsal.
00:06:04Love you.
00:06:07Thanks, James.
00:06:08I can always count on you.
00:06:16How are you doing?
00:06:23Dad, I don't know how much longer I can take this amicable divorce thing.
00:06:50I'm so happy to be.
00:06:53And be fine and I will leave the doctor.
00:06:56Okay, and take them out.
00:06:57I'm so happy.
00:06:57I won't do it.
00:06:58I'm so happy to be with you.
00:06:58I'm so happy.
00:06:59I'll have to be with you next time.
00:06:59Let's go.
00:06:59It's OK.
00:07:03Maybe there's time to go.
00:07:05No, it won't go away, but this is nice.
00:07:20I know how much I love you, yes I know.
00:07:28No.
00:07:29Just, no.
00:07:30I'm sorry, Chad.
00:07:31I've let you down again.
00:07:32You cannot be in love with your ex-wife.
00:07:34That's gotta stop now.
00:07:36You're gonna take the Chad's ladies challenge.
00:07:38Seven ladies in seven days.
00:07:39You've already been on the first floor.
00:07:40Yeah, but will I survive the next six?
00:07:59Look at you, James.
00:08:03Just so handsome after all these years.
00:08:07You were always just such a lovely, nice guy.
00:08:12Thank you, thank you.
00:08:13And you were always a lovely lady.
00:08:16Well, I'm kicking myself a little bit.
00:08:19You know, that I didn't scoop you up back then.
00:08:24We live and we learn.
00:08:26Well, very, very nice of you to say.
00:08:28And how was your business?
00:08:29You have that...
00:08:31No longer.
00:08:32No longer.
00:08:33Oh.
00:08:33It's okay.
00:08:34There was just a bit of an embezzlement issue.
00:08:36Somebody embezzled in your company?
00:08:38I did.
00:08:39And I was just, you know, sort of stuck in the apartment for a bit.
00:08:45But that is the past and we're here now.
00:08:49You and I are here now.
00:08:50So, what's your schedule like these days?
00:08:56Um...
00:09:01Barbara's dating Frank.
00:09:02Check.
00:09:03And I've passed on seven names to James.
00:09:05Now they can both move on.
00:09:08How did we get so smart?
00:09:11And sexy.
00:09:13My ex-wife is dating another man.
00:09:17Well, I always like a challenge.
00:09:19I don't know, Chad.
00:09:20Maybe I'm no good at dating.
00:09:22All you need is confidence.
00:09:24Like me.
00:09:26What do you do?
00:09:28I write a blog on relationships.
00:09:31Oh, wow.
00:09:33I'm an editor of literary fiction.
00:09:36Oh, wow.
00:09:38Tell me about your work.
00:09:39Oh, well, my latest post was about how men often expect women
00:09:44to do all the work in a relationship.
00:09:47They think, you know, women are just gonna make it happen.
00:09:51But if they don't step up to the plate,
00:09:55they could wind up losing the love of their life.
00:09:58Have you ever experienced that?
00:10:02Oh, and this isn't happening.
00:10:09Sometimes, when life gets too complicated,
00:10:13I take long walks.
00:10:15Do you ever do that?
00:10:18I go back to places Barbara and I went together.
00:10:21The top of the Empire State Building.
00:10:24A boat ride around Manhattan.
00:10:28That little French restaurant in the village we both love.
00:10:34But remembering isn't gonna bring her back.
00:10:38My question is, what will?
00:10:48Oh, thank goodness you've come.
00:10:50What's wrong?
00:10:51Where is my suitcase?
00:10:52It's on the top shelf behind the blankets.
00:10:55What happened?
00:10:56Your father is moving out.
00:10:58What?
00:10:58Are you sure you didn't throw it out?
00:10:59I'm not demented yet.
00:11:01What?
00:11:02Your father has decided that he isn't getting what he needs with me.
00:11:06That maybe there's another woman out there that's better for him.
00:11:09Oh, good luck to him.
00:11:10What are we talking about?
00:11:11Nothing.
00:11:11Nothing.
00:11:12It's time you found another woman.
00:11:17Well, go!
00:11:19Oh, you've got it.
00:11:30I was only flirting with that sales girl.
00:11:32Why did I ever marry you?
00:11:34I must have lost my mind.
00:11:36Because I make life interesting for you, Lavanya.
00:11:38You wouldn't want me to be like James, would you?
00:11:41Who wants reliable?
00:11:43I would.
00:11:45You're having an affair.
00:11:47Lavanya, I could never cheat on you.
00:11:49Besides, that sales girl had slightly crooked teeth.
00:11:56I am like Barbara.
00:12:00I want a divorce.
00:12:04My parents are separating.
00:12:07My best friends are breaking up.
00:12:13Nice of them to remind me.
00:12:16It all makes me remember my own divorce.
00:12:24Go to the library if you want more.
00:12:27More.
00:12:29A scavenger hunt.
00:12:31This is fun!
00:12:33Wait.
00:12:34Okay.
00:12:35J.
00:12:36Yeah.
00:12:38K.
00:12:39I'm getting it.
00:12:40L.
00:12:41Uh-huh.
00:12:42Oh!
00:12:52Great literary editors of the 19th Century Volume 2.
00:12:58And it's signed by the author.
00:13:00It's a first edition.
00:13:01It completes our collection.
00:13:03This is it?
00:13:04Uh-huh.
00:13:06For our 10th wedding anniversary?
00:13:08Yeah.
00:13:10I can't believe this, James.
00:13:12This is what I've been talking about.
00:13:14What have I done wrong now?
00:13:15Well, it's not just this.
00:13:17I mean, last year it was a gift certificate.
00:13:19She says I don't understand her.
00:13:21And you're thinking that maybe somehow this is symbolic.
00:13:23And I know, I know what you're thinking.
00:13:24She says I'm not in touch with my feelings.
00:13:26You're thinking, why is she getting so emotional?
00:13:27What's wrong with being rational?
00:13:28She's right.
00:13:29Because-
00:13:29Can't we just talk about it calmly?
00:13:31When is love rational?
00:13:33And-
00:13:33James.
00:13:34Listen.
00:13:36A wise man once said,
00:13:39To love someone is to know them.
00:13:42Do you remember this ring?
00:13:44You gave it to me.
00:13:45When you asked me to get married.
00:13:48When you're ready to know me.
00:13:50Really know me.
00:13:51Give this ring back to me and we can start over.
00:13:54Barbara.
00:13:58And that's how it ended.
00:14:00With a simple word.
00:14:03Goodbye.
00:14:06Time to move on.
00:14:09Even though that's the last thing I want to do.
00:14:16Hi.
00:14:17Thanks for having us over.
00:14:23I'd like you to meet Frank.
00:14:25This is Frank.
00:14:28Young, handsome and rich.
00:14:31I haven't got a chance.
00:14:37Mom.
00:14:38I don't understand why you and Dad got divorced.
00:14:42You match.
00:14:43Like those little people on top of the wedding cake.
00:14:46First our marriage worked and then it didn't.
00:14:49Sometimes even good people can't make it work.
00:14:54I helped Dad get ready for a date.
00:14:56But I made a mistake.
00:14:59That can happen to great minds.
00:15:01You two belong together.
00:15:03And I'm going to do something about it.
00:15:06Despite that Frank guy I've heard about.
00:15:16I'm pregnant and I'm drinking.
00:15:18Please don't judge.
00:15:24Well the only person I judge is myself.
00:15:29I'm your new neighbor.
00:15:30I met this cute guy Chad in the hallway and he said to introduce myself.
00:15:36Don't worry.
00:15:37I'm single.
00:15:38Is it just me or do you smell an instant attraction here?
00:15:42You can stop by anytime.
00:15:44I work from home selling beauty products online.
00:15:47And there's always an open bottle of Merlot and Adele on my playlist.
00:15:51Oh she's my favorite.
00:15:55Chad said you have a son.
00:15:57I am ready to babysit anytime.
00:15:59I love kids.
00:16:00Did I mention I'm pregnant?
00:16:05Hello?
00:16:10I gotta get rid of this app.
00:16:15Come on in Dad.
00:16:16Make yourself at home.
00:16:18Home?
00:16:19This is not my home.
00:16:20I've got a sleeping bag.
00:16:21I've got a football.
00:16:23Oh and a small room to boot.
00:16:27It's all sinking in.
00:16:29All those years of marriage.
00:16:32And I'm moving in with my grown son.
00:16:33What is wrong with me?
00:16:36You're welcome to stay as long as you need to.
00:16:39I don't want to be in the way.
00:16:40You're not in the way.
00:16:42Chris and I want you here.
00:16:44We love you Dad.
00:16:47Thank you son.
00:16:51We'll need to talk about what to do when I bring ladies home at night.
00:17:05I think I got you son.
00:17:09I think you're on the road to death.
00:17:12Really?
00:17:13Really?
00:17:14You think that?
00:17:15Okay.
00:17:16Well, what about this?
00:17:19What do you say to that?
00:17:21You play a passive game son.
00:17:24That just won't cut it.
00:17:25Okay.
00:17:26Alright.
00:17:26In fact, you're living your love life like it's a chess game.
00:17:33If you want to win Barbara back, you've got to-
00:17:35Dad, she has a boyfriend.
00:17:37Remember?
00:17:38Mr. Chiseled Jawline?
00:17:40So, he's handsome, in good shape, has millions because he runs a hedge fund.
00:17:45So what? You've got good qualities too.
00:17:47I'm trying to remember my good qualities.
00:17:49Look, imagine this.
00:17:52You're in a shotgun formation.
00:17:55You drop back, take the snap, roll right, toss a dart downfield to your wide receiver who's running a post
00:18:01pattern.
00:18:01He catches the ball in stride and bingo, six points. You follow?
00:18:08Dad, football and I are not on speaking terms.
00:18:15Do you love her, James?
00:18:23Um...
00:18:23Yeah.
00:18:25Do you want her back?
00:18:28Yeah.
00:18:32Then get off your duff.
00:18:42Make Barbara jealous.
00:18:44Then she'll come running back to you.
00:18:45Right. That always works.
00:18:48Now that Lavanya's gone, I'm gonna have to start dating again.
00:18:54What are you wearing?
00:18:56We've got to give you a man makeover.
00:19:19Yeah.
00:19:19After that nuh, I'm gonna have to start dating again.
00:19:42I'll have to talk to you soon.
00:19:42Now what is your friend, your friend, your friend, my friend, and your friend, and dad?
00:19:42No, we're not always there.
00:19:42We have to make a friend and dad.
00:19:42I'll be there.
00:19:42I can guess.
00:19:42I'll be there.
00:19:43So, I can't touch you.
00:19:43I can't touch you.
00:20:17What are you going to a costume party? It's almost Christmas. Halloween was two months ago.
00:20:22Thanks for the confidence building and thanks for getting together again.
00:20:28I always did have a self-destructive streak.
00:20:32So, what do you want to do?
00:20:35So, how's yours?
00:20:37Romantic and uplifting. How's yours?
00:20:42Otherworldly. Takes me to another place.
00:20:46And this is still not happening.
00:21:01Hey.
00:21:02Hi. Sorry to bother you at work.
00:21:05That's okay. Something wrong?
00:21:06Well, yeah. Um, we need a new babysitter. Olga is pregnant.
00:21:14Again? Okay, it's my turn. You found the last one.
00:21:18Maybe this one could be a nice gay guy?
00:21:21Oh, okay. Time to call manly manies.
00:21:24I know it's a stereotype, but often gay men can express their feelings.
00:21:29Oh, right. The famous feelings. Well, I'm still searching for mine.
00:21:34And it wouldn't hurt, James. I mean, Chris, to learn a little compassion.
00:21:41Um, what exactly are you trying to say here?
00:21:45You know what I mean.
00:21:47Uh, yeah. Unfortunately, I do know what you mean.
00:21:50I'm sorry for the slip-up. I just...
00:21:52That's okay.
00:21:53I'm sort of in a hurry, and...
00:21:55Oh, well, you know, I was hoping we could talk for a minute.
00:21:58Uh, I... I... I gotta go.
00:22:02But listen, I'll see you on Saturday, right?
00:22:04Okay.
00:22:04Can I pick Chris up at six?
00:22:06Yeah, yeah. That's good. That's good.
00:22:08Thank you, James.
00:22:10Okay. Sure. Sure.
00:22:12Um, maybe we can talk again later.
00:22:15Well, yes. We will definitely talk again later.
00:22:17Okay.
00:22:18Okay. Okay. Bye.
00:22:20Bye.
00:22:28Hi. I'm Donnie.
00:22:31You're Manly Manny?
00:22:33Come on in.
00:22:41Just curious. How do you identify?
00:22:46Gay.
00:22:47Uh-huh.
00:22:49And or fluid.
00:22:50Fluid? You mean, like, hydrated?
00:22:54Right.
00:22:59Chris is 11, smart, and a little sarcastic.
00:23:03Then Chris and I will get along great.
00:23:07What's your favorite sport?
00:23:09Basketball.
00:23:10Uh, book?
00:23:11The Underground Railroad.
00:23:14Do you like girls?
00:23:16Yes.
00:23:19I can tell. You've never babysat before.
00:23:22Just my brothers.
00:23:23I need the money while I'm in school.
00:23:25What are you studying?
00:23:27Early medieval religious history with an emphasis on Francis of Assisi.
00:23:32Cool.
00:23:33I won't tell Dad that you don't have a clue about babysitting or life.
00:23:48My new blog-writing friend told me I need an action plan to get Barbara back.
00:23:54I need to try something I've never done before.
00:23:56Or maybe expressing my feelings?
00:24:11I know you're on deadline. Hence, deadline food.
00:24:15I actually didn't have time to eat today, so thank you.
00:24:18Oh, and thank you for getting the new babysitter.
00:24:22Does he seem sensitive and artistic?
00:24:24Abundantly.
00:24:25That's what the world needs.
00:24:28What's that?
00:24:29Flowers.
00:24:32You've never given me flowers before.
00:24:43Camilla called.
00:24:44Ooh.
00:24:45I love women chasing men. It's so...
00:24:48zesty.
00:24:49I'm...
00:24:50still in love with Barbara.
00:24:52James.
00:24:53Don't let love
00:24:55interfere with romance.
00:24:59You called.
00:25:00I did.
00:25:01You actually called.
00:25:02I did.
00:25:03I was surprised when you called.
00:25:05Were you really?
00:25:06I was surprised.
00:25:07Why?
00:25:08I...
00:25:10wasn't sure.
00:25:11I thought you didn't like me.
00:25:13No, I like you fine.
00:25:15I just don't find you sexy.
00:25:17Ah, apparently my ex-wife agrees with you.
00:25:21You're not supposed to talk about past relationships until the third date.
00:25:26This is a date?
00:25:28I decided I should give guys who read a chance.
00:25:31Hmm?
00:25:32I'm trying to focus on what's most important.
00:25:35What's that?
00:25:40A man who is solvent.
00:25:42Hmm?
00:25:44Who won't cheat on me.
00:25:45And who I can depend on in any situation.
00:25:50Basically, I'm looking for a man who's boring.
00:25:56You're perfect.
00:25:58Maybe I'm no good at relationships.
00:26:00Oh, I'm not looking for a relationship.
00:26:02I'm looking for a husband.
00:26:08Mm-hmm.
00:26:09Mm-hmm.
00:26:12I can work with that.
00:26:16Ugh.
00:26:17Men are such children.
00:26:20Seriously, they're like little Peter Pans skipping around in their little green tights.
00:26:24I mean, don't they realize that eventually we're all going to die?
00:26:27I don't think they do.
00:26:28Exactly.
00:26:29The male ego is so fragile, it's exhausting.
00:26:33Chad thinks that if he dates a younger woman, he'll magically become her age.
00:26:38James' father, too.
00:26:40Hmm.
00:26:40Now, it's different when women date younger.
00:26:43We live longer.
00:26:45It makes evolutionary sense for us to date younger men.
00:26:48I didn't go after Frank.
00:26:50He came after me.
00:26:51Of course.
00:26:52He's an intelligent, gorgeous, sexy hunk of a man.
00:26:59Oh, my God, in those photos, his abs look like the Himalayas.
00:27:02All those peaks and valleys.
00:27:10Tell me, what's he like in the bedroom?
00:27:16Mm-hmm.
00:27:17And that's all I needed to know.
00:27:30Frank helped me out with my math homework the other day.
00:27:33Are you going to keep dating him?
00:27:35Do you like him?
00:27:37Uh, he's okay.
00:27:40While Frank was watching me, Dad tried to have a date.
00:27:44Oh?
00:27:46It was pretty much like his cooking, from what I could tell.
00:27:51What does that mean?
00:27:53Mom.
00:27:54We both know what that means.
00:28:08New York is my kind of town.
00:28:11Mine.
00:28:15I know eight million people feel the same way.
00:28:19All these impressive buildings.
00:28:23All this energy.
00:28:27All these diverse and fascinating people.
00:28:32It's like nowhere else.
00:28:40So why is it harder for people to stay together here than anywhere else?
00:28:47You're hot.
00:28:49You're hotter.
00:28:51And I guess we're in a possibly hot cup?
00:28:54People probably in us for so hot.
00:28:58Hey.
00:29:01I feel silly for bringing this up.
00:29:04What?
00:29:05I was cleaning out the closet, and I found a bra.
00:29:13We talked about this.
00:29:14I'm bi, I'm fluid, whatever I am, that's what I am.
00:29:17Or is that just your way of sleeping up with more people?
00:29:21How do you think this makes me feel?
00:29:26Jay.
00:29:27Jay, listen to me.
00:29:28It's not that I don't-
00:29:29I'm listening.
00:29:30And what I hear you saying is, I don't know who I am.
00:29:35Jay.
00:29:36Jay!
00:29:39How was your day?
00:29:41Good.
00:29:43What'd you do?
00:29:46Just hung out with Mom.
00:29:49Oh, okay.
00:29:49How's she doing?
00:29:51Good.
00:29:53Okay.
00:29:59I was just wondering.
00:30:01Uh-huh.
00:30:02Why do people fall in love?
00:30:06Oh, well, um, all kinds of reasons.
00:30:10Um, there are different theories about it.
00:30:12What do you think?
00:30:14Well, I think people are looking to find meaning in their lives,
00:30:19and falling in love is one of the best ways to do that.
00:30:23Why do people fall out of love?
00:30:27All kinds of reasons, and often it's nobody's fault.
00:30:31You and Mom, Grandma and Grandpa.
00:30:34Does everybody break up?
00:30:38Maybe love isn't worth it.
00:30:40It is worth it, Chris.
00:30:43It'll happen for you someday.
00:30:46Dad, I love you.
00:30:48I love you too, Chris.
00:30:50And I promise I'm never going to fall out of love with you,
00:30:54no matter what happens.
00:30:56Okay?
00:31:00I love remembering the thought of thinking
00:31:06how it's gonna be
00:31:09that sunny someday winter morning
00:31:15when you'll come and sing for me.
00:31:22And though the very heart of my heart
00:31:27may be gold has fallen
00:31:29slow
00:31:35I know how much I love you
00:31:39Yes, I know
00:31:44Yes, I know
00:31:57Careful, Dad.
00:31:58We're both expressing some serious emotion here.
00:32:03Yeah.
00:32:26Thanks for calling, Barbara.
00:32:28I've missed you.
00:32:29I wanted to know how you are.
00:32:32How's the single life?
00:32:33Wonderful, great.
00:32:37How's Amanda?
00:32:39She says she's all right.
00:32:43You know, I've been thinking.
00:32:47We got married just out of college.
00:32:51We had James.
00:32:54Life happened really fast.
00:32:58We've been together our whole lives.
00:33:03It's been good.
00:33:06Mostly.
00:33:08But I keep thinking about
00:33:10what if I had made different choices along the road?
00:33:16I can't help wondering if maybe I've missed out in some way.
00:33:22Or maybe you have something everyone else wants.
00:33:31Phillip said I could get rid of things in his closet.
00:33:35Maybe James or you could use some of these.
00:33:40Thanks.
00:33:41James will be home soon.
00:33:46I don't know you very well, Donnie.
00:33:49But you seem like a very nice young man.
00:33:53So does Jay.
00:33:55Do you fight much?
00:33:57Not so far.
00:33:59I mean, we have some stuff we're working out.
00:34:02But we're going to be fine.
00:34:04I think.
00:34:06Neither of us have any money, but we have each other.
00:34:09Mostly we feel very lucky.
00:34:11I'm happy for you both.
00:34:14It's funny.
00:34:16Phillip and I have everything they tell you to have.
00:34:18A bank account for emergencies.
00:34:21Plenty of money put away for retirement.
00:34:24A nice apartment.
00:34:26We're set.
00:34:28So why don't I feel lucky?
00:34:39Not even jewelry?
00:34:41Diamonds?
00:34:42Emeralds?
00:34:43Anything?
00:34:44Anything?
00:34:45You call this a reconciliation?
00:34:49But I bought you expensive chocolates.
00:34:52With a note that says,
00:34:54To Chad, with much love from Hayley,
00:34:58your little girl in the maroon linen jumpsuit.
00:35:01X.O. X.O.
00:35:04Did she write that?
00:35:06That's so sweet.
00:35:08I don't want your girlfriend's chocolates.
00:35:13She admires me from afar.
00:35:15How far?
00:35:17Lavanya.
00:35:19As you know, I come from a very privileged family.
00:35:24Albeit, it was also strangely disadvantaged.
00:35:27I never got enough attention.
00:35:30Where are you going with this?
00:35:32I get lonely, Lavanya.
00:35:35While both of us have a myriad of other sensual opportunities.
00:35:38We do?
00:35:39We're both comparatively young and undeniably attractive.
00:35:47Well, not everything you say is a lie.
00:35:52Regardless of whatever mistakes either one of us have made,
00:35:56I do feel it's best that we're together.
00:35:59If anything, when we have children,
00:36:03we'll be very, very good looking.
00:36:06Huh?
00:36:07Hmm?
00:36:30Manhattan is an island, just like me.
00:36:36Both of us have energy and activity swirling around us.
00:36:43Time Square is the heart of New York.
00:36:46But its heart is cold.
00:36:49Like mine.
00:36:52But how do we get it warm?
00:36:56By letting someone in?
00:36:59Or by letting something out?
00:37:04This is my daughter, Leandra.
00:37:06Nice to meet you.
00:37:07Do you call her Gwapo?
00:37:10Um, she's beautiful.
00:37:12I don't have any childcare today.
00:37:14My daddy's a really hot dude.
00:37:17Leandra, don't be odiosa.
00:37:18Mom, like that.
00:37:20Um, I'm not really a dude.
00:37:23We know, James.
00:37:24It's painfully obvious.
00:37:26Yes, it is.
00:37:28Leandra, come on, play with your phone.
00:37:32James.
00:37:35I've been thinking.
00:37:36Oh, why do I feel dubious?
00:37:39I've gotten used to your lack of steaming passion.
00:37:43I think we should become exclusive.
00:37:45Is that the grandma?
00:37:46Ignore her.
00:37:48Um, Camilla, I have to tell you.
00:37:52I think I'm still in love with my ex-wife.
00:37:56Well, that's never going to work out.
00:37:58She's way too classy.
00:38:00You should stick with Leandra and me.
00:38:01We'll work with your shortcomings.
00:38:03Cierto?
00:38:05It's a lot of perversy.
00:38:12Adults, right?
00:38:13They can't help it.
00:38:16They just don't know what they're doing.
00:38:19Tell me about it.
00:38:22You want to go on a date?
00:38:24There's a walking tour of Upper Manhattan where they study different rock formations.
00:38:28Tempting.
00:38:29But since our parents are dating, wouldn't that make things interpersonally complex?
00:38:40How long did dad say he was going to be gone?
00:38:41Um, two hours.
00:38:44Your babysitter had a love crisis.
00:38:48God.
00:38:49I can relate.
00:38:51You look like you've had a lot of those.
00:38:55Look, kid.
00:38:57This can be a pleasant experience or an unpleasant one.
00:39:02And remember, your father is most likely going to believe my version of the story.
00:39:08So, which one's it going to be?
00:39:12Jay and I had a bad fight.
00:39:17What if he can't accept everything that I am?
00:39:21I don't know if I can accept myself.
00:39:26Jay's a lucky guy.
00:39:29Sometimes life sucks.
00:39:32Yeah.
00:39:35Sometimes life sucks.
00:39:40How was yoga?
00:39:42Good.
00:39:44You know.
00:39:44Working on living in the moment.
00:39:47Well.
00:39:48I love those yoga pants.
00:39:51And I love you.
00:39:53Frank.
00:39:55Seriously.
00:39:57I love you.
00:39:59And I love you.
00:40:01Wow.
00:40:03First time saying.
00:40:05Well, it's a big step.
00:40:09Speaking of living in the moment.
00:40:13Why don't we get married?
00:40:16What?
00:40:18When are we tying the knot?
00:40:21Now.
00:40:22Today?
00:40:25This weekend.
00:40:35You just proposed to be in the bathroom.
00:40:37I didn't plan it.
00:40:38I can see that.
00:40:39Sorry.
00:40:46I heard I was engaged.
00:40:51Sorry, guy.
00:40:53I thought you wanted me to be a player like you.
00:40:56Oh, it's exciting.
00:40:57Sure.
00:40:59But it's a lonely game, James.
00:41:02How's your dad's love life?
00:41:03Um, well, he keeps claiming he wants to start dating.
00:41:08Go, dad.
00:41:09But mostly he watches football and thinks about calling mother.
00:41:15It's harder for her.
00:41:23She's a delicate flower.
00:41:25Well, with this separation, she's going to need time to heal.
00:41:30I might sell everything I own and move to Alaska.
00:41:36Set up my own human geno testing service.
00:41:41How hard could it be?
00:41:42I wouldn't be surprised if she delves deeper into her religious faith.
00:41:48Our land of the free
00:41:54And the home of the brave
00:42:02Yeah.
00:42:20Mom?
00:42:27It's all going to be okay.
00:42:31There's a letter in the top drawer of my desk
00:42:35That tells you everything I want.
00:42:38Mom, try not to talk.
00:42:45I have just one regret in life.
00:42:50When I was young,
00:42:53I didn't know I was beautiful.
00:42:57Maybe if I'd known that, my life would have been different.
00:43:06Don't live the way I did, James.
00:43:08Don't live the way I did, James.
00:43:09Live with your heart open.
00:43:12I love you, Mom.
00:43:14I love you, Mom.
00:43:16I love you too, son.
00:43:22Don't live the way I did, James.
00:43:22The doctor says all your tests came back negative.
00:43:25You were dehydrated.
00:43:27You're going to be fine.
00:43:29Shit.
00:43:30Why do you have to ruin everything?
00:43:33This was supposed to be my death scene.
00:43:40It's so cool.
00:44:04Don't live the way I was ago.
00:44:12Hello?
00:44:16Hello?
00:44:52Do you want me to zip you up?
00:44:55It's okay.
00:44:56I got it.
00:45:00What?
00:45:01You don't like my dress?
00:45:04You look beautiful.
00:45:06Thanks for doing this.
00:45:08Frank hates these things.
00:45:09Plus he had to work late on that deal he's putting together.
00:45:13Oh, is my hair coming down?
00:45:15No.
00:45:18I dropped Chris off at your mother's.
00:45:20And Dad's staying with Uncle Jeff in Albany.
00:45:23So we don't have to worry about how late we stay.
00:45:25All the donors are going to be pretty mature, but the food is going to be great.
00:45:30And there's dancing in a band.
00:45:33Who knows?
00:45:33We might even have fun.
00:45:41Are you up for dancing?
00:45:42Uh, you know that was never my long suit.
00:45:46I feel like I'm in middle school.
00:45:47Oh, come on.
00:45:50It's simple.
00:45:50Come here.
00:45:56Nice cologne.
00:45:57Thanks.
00:45:58Frank gave it to me.
00:46:00So there are many different kinds of steps.
00:46:03But what you really have to do is just shift your weight back and forth from foot to foot.
00:46:07Okay.
00:46:08You can try it.
00:46:12And this is the arm that you use to sort of guide me because you're leading.
00:46:17It's a way to follow you around.
00:46:21Who's that singing?
00:46:22Oh, that's the Merlot woman down the hall.
00:46:26It's her.
00:46:30She's singing our song.
00:46:32Chris taught it to her.
00:46:41Hey, look, you're dancing.
00:46:45See?
00:46:47Nothing to it.
00:46:49Right.
00:46:51Nothing to it.
00:46:52Yes, it's you.
00:46:55Yes, it's you.
00:47:19Yes, it's you.
00:48:38James.
00:48:43Chris is waiting for you to take him to school.
00:49:07That's a nice dress.
00:49:08Chris.
00:49:10What's Chris going to think?
00:49:13He's going to think his parents slept together.
00:49:19Well, did you?
00:49:21We had a lot to drink.
00:49:23I don't remember.
00:49:26In my day, you knew when you slept with a man.
00:49:34Barbara, I've always liked you as much as I like anyone.
00:49:38But your divorce wasn't all about James.
00:49:42What do you mean?
00:49:45I know James has trouble being in touch with his feelings.
00:49:49Look at his mother.
00:49:52But are you really so in touch with yours?
00:49:58What exactly do you feel this morning?
00:50:01We were playing.
00:50:02We were playing.
00:50:15We were playing.
00:50:16. . .
00:50:41. . .
00:50:45Well . . .
00:50:46So what are you going to do?
00:50:48I don't know.
00:50:50Do you have any suggestions?
00:50:59Sandra.
00:51:09Did you miss me?
00:51:14I'm sorry.
00:51:19I'm with Barbara now.
00:51:24Lucky woman.
00:51:30This doesn't happen to me.
00:51:33No one leaves me.
00:51:35I'm not trying to hurt you.
00:51:38And I hope we can still be friends.
00:51:41Have you forgotten how good we are?
00:51:44That I'm in love with someone else.
00:51:47Are you sure?
00:51:48Yes.
00:51:51Yes.
00:51:55Yes.
00:52:16We are.
00:52:18You are getting married tomorrow.
00:52:20Ah, the twists and turns of fate.
00:52:24It's really moving.
00:52:27Hey guys.
00:52:28Speaking of twists and turns.
00:52:31Chad, you've returned.
00:52:34Levanya, love of my life?
00:52:37Kneeling with roses?
00:52:39You've done that already.
00:52:41Will you please forgive my wayward ways and take me back?
00:52:44I promise to have eyes for you, and only you.
00:52:50What?
00:52:52I'm thinking.
00:53:00All right.
00:53:19What do you think?
00:53:21Zane is the top wedding wizard in New York.
00:53:24This dress was featured in Vogue last month.
00:53:27I hope that doesn't mean too many women will be wearing it.
00:53:29Oh, very few women have your good taste.
00:53:32Did I miss something?
00:53:34I don't remember becoming engaged.
00:53:36I remember how shy you are, and you forgot to ask, so I'm prompting you.
00:53:44This is one option for headgear.
00:53:47Should I be seeing this? Isn't that bad luck?
00:53:50Oh, that's an old lifestyle, darling.
00:53:51I want you to be happy with how I look on our special day.
00:53:54And here is another choice.
00:53:57Can you see me under here?
00:54:00You look beautiful.
00:54:03I'm so happy.
00:54:06Don't worry.
00:54:07I know that Chris and Leandra will get along just fine, the stepkids.
00:54:11We'll be one big, somehow functional family.
00:54:16I will remember this day forever.
00:54:19It's the best day of my life.
00:54:23Oh, my God.
00:54:25I'm very excited.
00:54:27Oh, God, Zane.
00:54:28I am so happy you're here.
00:54:29Absolutely.
00:54:30Oh, God, happy, happy.
00:54:41I should go.
00:54:43Okay.
00:54:43All right, darling.
00:54:44All right, baby.
00:54:45Nice to see you.
00:54:45I'm going to leave this with you.
00:54:46Oh, yes, we have to choose.
00:54:48All right.
00:54:48All right.
00:55:03All right.
00:55:04Camilla, you are a lovely, lovely, I can't tell you what a lovely woman you are.
00:55:15You know, maybe, maybe this isn't a good time.
00:55:18What?
00:55:20You know, timing, I read somewhere, timing is everything.
00:55:24We should time it, time it so it's really good.
00:55:28You might want to, you know, get out of, is that returnable?
00:55:43Oh, hi.
00:55:44I saw Camilla running down the street sobbing in a wedding dress.
00:55:47Yeah, we broke up.
00:55:48Yeah, I kind of figured.
00:55:50So, you're on the market again.
00:55:53You're selling.
00:55:54I'm buying.
00:55:55Yeah, but I'm thinking of taking a break from dating.
00:55:58Maybe permanently.
00:55:59Oh, what a loss.
00:56:00Yeah, I've got the guys coming over.
00:56:01And Barbara's getting married tomorrow?
00:56:03Yeah, yeah.
00:56:03I mean, like in 12 hours.
00:56:05She asked me to invite you to the wedding.
00:56:07Really?
00:56:08Yeah.
00:56:08Oh, I should say I'm busy, but I'd love to go.
00:56:11Where's she getting married?
00:56:12The Colonial Dames.
00:56:13Oh, fancy, fancy.
00:56:14That historic organization, they rent their clubhouse.
00:56:17Yeah, I've heard of them.
00:56:18Very cool.
00:56:19Is tomorrow?
00:56:20I'm like, gee, what to wear, what to wear.
00:56:23Barbara does not waste time.
00:56:24I respect that.
00:56:27Still, this must be really not easy for you.
00:56:32Jenny, Jenny, I've got the guys coming over.
00:56:35They're coming over for a party.
00:56:37Jenny?
00:56:39This is going to be the most epic party ever.
00:56:42All right gentlemen, keep it down, keep it down, keep it down.
00:56:45Frank is having his bachelor party, so I thought we should have our own party.
00:56:51Gentlemen, toast.
00:56:52Uh-huh.
00:56:54To my best friend, James.
00:56:57The ultimate good loser.
00:56:59You're here.
00:57:00To the good loser.
00:57:01There you go, James.
00:57:03You've got to break out tonight, kid.
00:57:05You're going to get a chance.
00:57:06You're going to get...
00:57:07Oh, you're going to get a chance, too.
00:57:09Music.
00:57:09YMCA or Macarena?
00:57:11Neither, my friend.
00:57:12We are going to bust out our best.
00:57:15Kipho.
00:57:16Kipho.
00:57:16Like a move.
00:57:18Good going, Greg.
00:57:20You better have it.
00:57:21One, two, and one.
00:57:26One, two, and one.
00:57:26One, two, and one.
00:57:27Yes, yes.
00:57:28Good.
00:57:29Do you hear some more about it?
00:57:31I don't know.
00:57:32Feel it, feel it.
00:57:33Feel it, Jen.
00:57:34Feel it, Jen.
00:57:35It's coming out, Bart.
00:57:36Show that, show that music and that excitement.
00:57:40I know.
00:57:41Oh, good going, James.
00:57:42Bye.
00:57:43Thank you, guys.
00:57:43Bye.

01:05:36oh
01:05:39oh
01:05:52i love remembering the thought of thinking how it's gonna be
01:06:01That sunny Sunday winter morning, when you'll come and sing for me
01:06:16And though the very heart of my heart may be cold as fallen snow
01:06:30I know how much I love you, yes I know
01:06:41Yes I know how much I love you, yes I know
01:06:59New York has a special kind of winter
01:07:02It snows, then melts, then snows again, all in the same day
01:07:10After last night, I melted, I'm finally open
01:07:16And the irony is, Barbara is about to marry someone else
01:07:27Hello Zane, what are you doing here?
01:07:30Studying how not to do a wedding
01:07:32Apparently a wedding means dueling wedding planners
01:07:37Phillip and I are back together
01:07:39He lost his mind all over again
01:07:42Mrs. Anderson, what a beautiful space, what a beautiful day
01:07:48Weddings always make me cry
01:07:51Thank goodness Levani has forgiven me
01:07:54Now all we have to do is survive the rest of our lives together
01:08:00I'm glad you could make it as my date
01:08:02How's your mom?
01:08:04She's already picked out her next husband
01:08:06The most important thing is to be with the person who makes her heart sick
01:08:12Amanda's my gal
01:08:15Is this wedding giving you any ideas?
01:08:18I do
01:08:45I do
01:08:53What are you feeling Barbara?
01:08:55I'm really not sure
01:08:56I'm sure you heard about my deathbed speech
01:09:00I'd take my advice if I were you
01:09:03Mom, I wanted to tell you I won't hate you for the rest of your life for marrying Frank
01:09:07I see he's actually an okay guy
01:09:10That's very nice of you Chris
01:09:12I'm remarkably mature for my age
01:09:14Everyone, come into the dining room
01:09:18No, uh, Candace
01:09:19I just
01:09:20We're starving as humans
01:09:21Okay, but
01:09:22Uh, Candace
01:09:43Candace
01:09:44Oh
01:09:54Is that Sandra?
01:09:59She's very pretty
01:10:03And even more importantly I realize
01:10:06She's my best friend
01:10:09Like you and James
01:10:17What are we gonna say?
01:10:19About not going through with it?
01:10:25The truth
01:10:30A lady has class
01:10:32Yeah
01:10:53Something wrong?
01:10:54I seem to have lost the groom
01:11:01Let's find somewhere quiet
01:11:13So
01:11:21whue
01:11:23Or
01:11:25Also
01:11:25And
01:11:25who
01:11:26Oh
01:11:26WhoAAAAAAAA
01:12:04I'm a little overdressed if I'm not getting married.
01:12:08You look beautiful.
01:12:14I'm grateful.
01:12:17For what?
01:12:19For our sassy son and our quirky families.
01:12:24And our unique friends.
01:12:25And for being best friends.
01:12:29For life.
01:12:35You said that we could start again.
01:12:40When I understood that to love you is to know you.
01:12:52James, have you been carrying this with you this whole time?
01:12:55Yes.
01:12:56I carry your heart.
01:12:58And I'll carry yours.
01:13:16I'm confused.
01:13:18What happened to the hedge fund guy?
01:13:20Are Barbara and James really getting married again?
01:13:22I think they were always married.
01:13:32Well, there may be happily ever after, after all.
01:13:39You can find happiness the second time around.
01:13:43And with the same person.
01:13:46The world is often a crazy place.
01:13:50Love is the one thing that makes sense.
01:13:54Especially if you love, then love again.
01:13:59Love.
01:14:01Repeat.
01:14:02Enjoy your heart.
01:14:03Love.
01:14:25Forget you.
01:14:26You also heard us.
01:14:27Noodles every other day.
01:14:28Gee, you certainly heard us great from the hedge fund.
01:14:28See you all.
01:14:29Bye.
