📝 Synopsis:
Another one in the books. Let's talk about Take Me Back to the Night We Met.
This one's a second-chance romance with a twist: the female lead's biggest opponent isn't another woman or a scheming rival — it's herself.
Gwen Tyler was a figure skating prodigy. Olympic gold was within reach. Ten years later, she's in a loveless engagement, living a life that feels more like a cage than a choice. She's let life happen to her, and she's lost sight of who she used to be.
Then Aaron Lansing, her childhood best friend, walks back in after a decade apart. He doesn't try to save her — he just reminds her that she used to know how to save herself. And suddenly, Gwen has to decide: keep letting life happen to her, or finally take back control.
**✨ Here's my honest take:**
What makes this one work is that the conflict is internal. Gwen's not fighting a villain — she's fighting her own fear, her own inertia, her own willingness to settle. And Aaron's role isn't to rescue her — it's to remind her that she's capable of rescuing herself. Katherine Gibson and Mark H. McClafferty have solid chemistry. ReelShort's been putting out some surprisingly nuanced second-chance romances lately — this one's worth your time.
Anyone else appreciate a romance where the male lead doesn't try to fix her — just reminds her she can fix herself? Let's talk in the comments.
🎬 Genre: Romance, Drama, Second Chance, Friends to Lovers, Reunion
👥 Cast: Katherine Gibson, Mark H. McClafferty

00:00:05I want him to stay, but how can I tell him that, when I'm clearly just a burden to him?
00:00:10I want to stay, but how can I watch her with someone else when I love her this much?
00:00:16I have to go.
00:00:20You know what hurts? It's not even you leaving, it's that you're too much of a coward to tell me
00:00:24why!
00:00:25But yeah, go, go, you don't have to stay and watch me, ruin my life!
00:00:41You're not just a friend, you're a family. That's why it makes sense that you'd be my backup husband.
00:00:46You're a little, a word.
00:01:10You're a little, a word.
00:01:24Hey, Aaron, look, I'm sorry.
00:01:27Okay, I don't want to end things like this.
00:01:29Not with you.
00:01:31Aaron.
00:01:47Aaron!
00:01:51Aaron!
00:01:53Aaron!
00:01:59Why did you leave?
00:02:01You were the one person I thought would stay.
00:02:12Keep going, keep going
00:02:20Great, nice one
00:02:36Well, what'd you think? Should I do the program at Worlds?
00:02:40Absolutely. I think if anyone's got a shot at Worlds, it's you.
00:02:42You think so?
00:02:43I know so. And I know you. You were born to skate snowflake.
00:02:48I promise I won't forget about our deal when I become world champion.
00:02:53What deal?
00:02:54You know, that if we're both still single by 30, we get married.
00:02:59How could I ever forget that deal?
00:03:01So, you ever think about the fact that I've been living with you and Gramps since I was, like, for
00:03:08a while now?
00:03:09Exactly. You're not just a friend. You're family.
00:03:12That's why it makes sense that you'd be my backup husband.
00:03:18Backup husband, huh?
00:03:30Erin Lansing, my best friend, my safe place, my home.
00:03:34She's the one thing in my life I can't imagine losing.
00:03:37And tonight, I'll finally tell her how I feel.
00:03:39Gwen, the truth is, is that I, I, I love, Gwen, I, I love you.
00:03:53Fuck.
00:03:54Okay, here it goes.
00:04:00Gwen Tyler, will you be my girlfriend?
00:04:14I, I know that it's only been, like, three weeks, but I just know that you're the one.
00:04:20That's really sweet.
00:04:21No one's ever said anything like that to me.
00:04:27Okay, so, you know, that, that is crazy.
00:04:30You are just so beautiful.
00:04:34Even with your emo highlights.
00:04:38You don't like my hair?
00:04:40Oh, of course. I love your hair.
00:04:41It's just, you know, I think it's going to be even more beautiful when it's a darker brown.
00:04:46The, the, the point is that I think that you're stunning because I really like you.
00:04:53You really like me too, right?
00:04:57Please say no.
00:05:12Vince, before we make anything official, um,
00:05:18there's someone I need to talk to first.
00:05:20Sure, yeah.
00:05:34Aaron, where are you going?
00:05:35Aaron, stop.
00:05:36Look at me.
00:05:38I got a distant relative in England that I'd check out.
00:05:42What?
00:05:43When did you decide that?
00:05:45If I hadn't come into your room, you were just going to sneak out in the middle of the night?
00:05:48I'm not the only one keeping secrets.
00:05:51When were you planning on telling me and Graham about your new boyfriend?
00:05:55Have you?
00:05:58Were you spying on me?
00:05:59I mean, what do you even see in that guy? Tell me.
00:06:02He's nice.
00:06:03And he's sweet.
00:06:04And he, he understands me.
00:06:06I think that's bullshit.
00:06:07The same guy who wants you to change your hair?
00:06:09How is that nice?
00:06:10What the fuck else is he going to make you change, huh?
00:06:12Nothing.
00:06:13Because at least he'll be here.
00:06:15When you were going to fly halfway across the world without even saying goodbye.
00:06:19Let me tell you something.
00:06:19If you can't realize you're making a fucking mistake right now, I don't know what the hell else to do.
00:06:23Why do you care?
00:06:24You just showed up at our door four years ago.
00:06:26You're not even real family.
00:06:30I want him to stay.
00:06:32But how can I tell him that when I'm clearly just a burden to him?
00:06:35I want to stay.
00:06:36But how can I watch her with someone else when I love her this much?
00:06:41I have to go.
00:06:45You know what hurts?
00:06:46It's not even you leaving.
00:06:47It's that you're too much of a coward to tell me why.
00:06:51But yeah, go, go.
00:06:52You don't have to stay.
00:06:52It watched me ruin my life.
00:07:06You're not just a friend.
00:07:07You need your friend.
00:07:09That's why it makes sense that you'd be my backup husband.
00:07:30Oh, hi.
00:07:32Little, little.
00:07:33What?
00:07:49Hey, Erin, look, I'm sorry.
00:07:52Okay, I don't want to end things like this.
00:07:54Not with you.
00:07:57Erin.
00:08:24Why did you leave, you were the one person I thought would stay.
00:08:33Erin, hey, we're here.
00:08:37I dreamed of Erin again.
00:08:42Calling out another guy's name in your sleep while you're engaged with someone else.
00:08:46It's a great look.
00:08:47What?
00:08:48You said his name, Erin.
00:08:51Isn't that the guy you haven't seen in like, what, 10 years?
00:08:54It was just a dream.
00:08:55Great.
00:08:58I'm engaged to Vince now.
00:09:02Erin was just a stranger.
00:09:05Hey, hey.
00:09:07Hey.
00:09:14Babe, why don't you pick up before, you know?
00:09:17I was worried about you.
00:09:18I'm sorry, my phone died.
00:09:20I was out for an interview.
00:09:21I had a deadline.
00:09:22That can wait, right?
00:09:23Because I got that party with Michael Royce.
00:09:25I really need you to go to that.
00:09:27Vince, I'm on my period, and I'm low on iron right now.
00:09:33Well, we could totally pack your iron supplements, and then we'll make sure, you know, I promise
00:09:37that you won't even have to drink, okay?
00:09:42Hey, please, I really, really need you to come to the party tonight.
00:09:47I really need to impress Michael Royce.
00:09:49He's like the richest guy on the side of the country, and there's going to be a ton of top
00:09:52investors.
00:09:52I mean, there's even going to be Aaron Lansing.
00:09:57Aaron Lansing?
00:10:00Graham, I'm home from practice.
00:10:03Is dinner ready?
00:10:19Who are you?
00:10:21Aaron Lansing.
00:10:23Okay, Aaron Lansing.
00:10:24You want to tell me why you're in my house?
00:10:27Oh, good.
00:10:28You met each other.
00:10:29Sweetie, this is Aaron.
00:10:30Your grandfather and his grandpa are old friends, and he's going to be staying with
00:10:34us for a while.
00:10:37Just think of him as family.
00:10:39Okay, I have to get to work, be nice, try to get to know each other, okay?
00:10:54You hungry yet, Emo?
00:10:56I don't know who you're calling Emo.
00:10:59You're the one with dye in your hair and piercings.
00:11:03Well, I'm not the one listening to Divorced Ad Rock.
00:11:08Here, catch.
00:11:11The team's passing it out for good luck.
00:11:13I don't need it, but maybe it could help cheer you up.
00:11:16What the hell am I supposed to do with this?
00:11:19I don't know.
00:11:19Put it on a charm bracelet or something.
00:11:29Aaron Lansing.
00:11:30He graduated from Cambridge Business School, and he went on to become the youngest founder
00:11:34at, like, one of the top ten global investment firms.
00:11:38You two know each other, right?
00:11:40I mean, this would be the perfect chance for you to introduce us to each other.
00:11:43I haven't seen him in a long time.
00:11:46And I told you I'm not feeling well.
00:11:49Come on, babe.
00:11:50I mean, everybody is going to bring their wife and their girlfriend.
00:11:54Do you know how embarrassing it would be for me if I didn't show up without my fiance?

00:12:18done up, okay?
00:12:21Great.
00:12:23Okay.

00:18:49You're still skating, right?
00:18:52I haven't been on the ice in years.

00:19:00You can tell me the truth.
00:19:16There you are.

00:19:24Gwen, not mope around your room all night.
00:19:27Come on.

00:19:29She's engaged to Vince Dolan.
00:19:30Gwen, this is-

00:19:56She looks familiar.
00:20:04Damn, man.
00:20:05I didn't know you were still talking to Tati.
00:20:07I think she just messaged me.
00:20:09She's apparently back in the States, so.
00:20:10Does Gwen know about you too?
00:20:13Dude, do you think Gwen would still be engaged if she knew?
00:20:15No.
00:20:16Man, you've got Tatiana Volkova,
00:20:18Russia's star ice skater
00:20:20and two-time Olympic gold medalist,
00:20:21practically begging to fuck you.
00:20:23And you're still gonna marry Gwen?
00:20:25Well, you guys know Tati is...
00:20:27She's all passion, right?
00:20:30Not all bland and boring, like-
00:20:32Like what?
00:20:35What were you guys talking about?
00:20:37Huh?
00:20:38What were you guys talking about?
00:20:40Nothing.
00:20:41Uh, yeah, we're just, you know,
00:20:43talking about bland and boring work stuff.
00:20:44Hey, can we go home?
00:20:48Well, I mean, I could get you something.
00:20:49Maybe something warm, like tea.
00:20:51Okay.
00:20:52Hey, a bit.
00:20:54Uh, yeah.
00:20:55Give me a second.
00:20:56I'll be right back, okay?
00:21:01All warmed up now?
00:21:06That's Tyler.
00:21:08Lavender tea and honey.
00:21:09That's for Custod.
00:21:35Hey, what exactly is this?
00:21:38Hey, hey, what's that?
00:21:40I just asked a server for them.
00:21:42Huh.
00:21:43Okay.
00:21:43I'm ready to call him over Black, I think.
00:21:45I think we need to get the hell out of here.
00:21:47Okay.
00:21:48Cool.
00:21:55I mean, who does Aaron Lansing think he is?
00:21:58I mean, how's a prick like that
00:21:59end up being the protege to Michael Royce?
00:22:02Are you even listening to me?
00:22:04Yeah.
00:22:05Sorry.
00:22:07You sure you guys were just friends?
00:22:09You didn't, like, date or anything?
00:22:11No, never.
00:22:13And we were more, like, family.
00:22:15Yeah, that makes way more sense.
00:22:17He's got way more options.
00:22:23Why haven't you texted me back?
00:22:26Well, uh, we are coming back from an event.
00:22:29Then come see me.
00:22:31Or are you too busy with that little American husband?
00:22:36Oh, I don't know.
00:22:37Vince.
00:22:38Do you want more photos?
00:22:40Or do you want the real thing?
00:22:44I'll be there soon.
00:22:46I gotta go to the office.
00:22:50Okay.
00:22:51Um, do you want to ask the driver to drop me in line?
00:22:54Well, actually, um, would you be okay if you just got another ride?
00:22:57Because it's really urgent.
00:22:58It's a work emergency.
00:23:02Yeah.
00:23:04I'm sorry about the way things went tonight, okay?
00:23:07I'm gonna make it up to you.
00:23:09Okay?
00:23:10I love you.
00:23:11I love you.
00:23:13I'm okay.
00:23:14All right, I'll see you later.
00:23:17I'll see you later.
00:23:24Step on it.
00:23:25Wait, my umbrella!
00:23:26Oh, my God!
00:23:59Varen, he came for me.
00:24:13Come with me.
00:24:37Keep going, keep going.
00:24:46Great, nice one.
00:25:01Well, what'd you think? Should I do the program at Worlds?
00:25:04Absolutely. I think if anyone's got a shot at Worlds, it's you.
00:25:07You think so?
00:25:08I know so. And I know you. You were born a skate snowflake.
00:25:12I promise I won't forget about our deal when I become world champion.
00:25:17What deal?
00:25:18You know, that if we're both still single by 30, we get married.
00:25:23How could I ever forget that deal?
00:25:26You ever think about the fact that I've been living with you and Graham since I was, like, for a
00:25:31while now?
00:25:32Exactly. You're not just a friend, you're family.
00:25:35That's why it makes sense that you'd be my backup husband.
00:25:41Backup husband, huh?
00:25:53Erin Lansing. My best friend. My safe place. My home.
00:25:57She's the one thing in my life I can't imagine losing. And tonight, I'll finally tell her how I feel.
00:26:02Gwen, the truth is...
00:26:06Is that I love...
00:26:10Gwen, I love you.
00:26:16Fuck.
00:26:17Okay, here it goes.
00:26:22Gwen Tyler, will you be my girlfriend?
00:26:36I know that it's only been, like, three weeks, but...
00:26:39I just know that you're the one.
00:26:41That's really sweet.
00:26:43No one's ever said anything like that to me.
00:26:48Okay, so, you know, that...
00:26:50That is crazy.
00:26:51You are just...
00:26:53So beautiful.
00:26:55Even with your emo highlights.
00:26:59You don't like my hair?
00:27:01Oh, of course. I love your hair.
00:27:02It's just, you know, I think it's gonna be even more beautiful when it's a darker brown.
00:27:06Yeah.
00:27:07The point is that I think that you're stunning because I really like you.
00:27:14You really like me too, right?
00:27:18Please say no.
00:27:32Vince, before we make anything official...
00:27:38There's someone I need to talk to first.
00:27:40Sure, yeah.
00:27:53Erin?
00:27:54Where are you going?
00:27:55Erin, stop!
00:27:56Look at me!
00:27:58I got a distant relative in England that I checked out.
00:28:01What?
00:28:02When did you decide that?
00:28:04If I hadn't come into your room, you were just gonna sneak out in the middle of the night?
00:28:07I'm not the only one keeping secrets.
00:28:10When were you planning on telling me and Graham about your new boyfriend?
00:28:16Have you...
00:28:17Were you spying on me?
00:28:18I mean, what do you even see in that guy? Tell me!
00:28:21He's nice!
00:28:22And he's sweet!
00:28:23And he understands me!
00:28:25I think that's bullshit!
00:28:26The same guy who wants you to change your hair? How is that nice?
00:28:29What the fuck else is he gonna make you change, huh?
00:28:30Nothing!
00:28:31Because at least he'll be here!
00:28:34When you were gonna fly halfway across the world without even saying goodbye!
00:28:37Let me tell you something, if you can't realize you're making a fucking mistake right now, I don't know what
00:28:40the hell else to do!
00:28:41Why do you care?
00:28:43You just showed up at our door four years ago, you're not even real family!
00:28:48I want him to stay, but how can I tell him that, when I'm clearly just a burden to him?
00:28:53I want to stay, but how can I watch her with someone else when I love her this much?
00:28:59I have to go.
00:29:02You know what hurts?
00:29:04It's not even you leaving, it's that you're too much of a coward to tell me why!
00:29:08But Yakko, go! You don't have to stay and watch me! Ruin my life!
00:29:23You're not just a friend, you're family.
00:29:26That's why it makes sense that you'd be my backup husband.
00:29:28I'm not just a friend!
00:29:46Come on!
00:29:48Little, little or what?
00:30:05Hey, Erin, look, I'm sorry.
00:30:08Okay, I don't want to end things like this.
00:30:10Not with you.
00:30:12Erin.
00:30:28Erin.
00:30:32Erin.
00:30:39Why did you leave?
00:30:41You were the one person I thought would stay.
00:30:47Erin.
00:30:48Hey, we're here.
00:30:52I dreamed of Erin again.
00:30:57Erin.
00:30:57Calling out another guy's name in your sleep while you're engaged with someone else?
00:31:00That's a great look.
00:31:02What?
00:31:02You said his name.
00:31:03Erin.
00:31:05Isn't that the guy you haven't seen in, like, what, ten years?
00:31:08It was just a dream.
00:31:10Brie.
00:31:12I'm engaged to Vince now.
00:31:15Erin was just a stranger.
00:31:19Hey, hey.
00:31:21Hey.
00:31:28Babe, why don't you pick up her for it, you know?
00:31:30I was worried about you.
00:31:31I'm sorry, my phone died.
00:31:33I was out for an interview.
00:31:34I had a deadline.
00:31:35That can wait, right?
00:31:36Because I got that party with Michael Royce.
00:31:38I really need you to go to that.
00:31:40Vince, I'm on my period, and I'm low on iron right now.
00:31:46Well, we could totally pack your iron supplements, and then we'll make sure, you know, I promise
00:31:50that you won't even have to drink, okay?
00:31:55Hey, please.
00:31:56I really, really need you to come to the party tonight.
00:31:59I really need to impress Michael Royce.
00:32:01He's, like, the richest guy on the side of the country, and there's going to be a ton of
00:32:04top investors.
00:32:05I mean, there's even going to be Erin Lansing.
00:32:09Erin Lansing?
00:32:12Graham, I'm home for practice.
00:32:15Stay ready?
00:32:31Who are you?
00:32:32Erin Lansing.
00:32:34Okay, Erin Lansing.
00:32:36You want to tell me why you're in my house?
00:32:38Oh, good.
00:32:39You met each other.
00:32:41Sweetie, this is Erin.
00:32:42Your grandfather and his grandpa are old friends, and he's going to be staying with us
00:32:46for a while.
00:32:48Just think of him as family.
00:32:50Okay, I have to get to work, be nice, try to get to know each other, okay?
00:33:05You hungry yet, Emo?
00:33:07I don't know who you're calling Emo.
00:33:10You're the one with dyeing your hair and piercings.
00:33:14Well, I'm not the one listening to divorce dad rock.
00:33:18Here, catch.
00:33:21Team's passing it out for good luck.
00:33:23I don't need it, but maybe it could help cheer you up.
00:33:26What the hell am I supposed to do with this?
00:33:29I don't know.
00:33:29Put it on a charm bracelet or something.
00:33:38Aaron Lansing.
00:33:39He graduated from Cambridge Business School, and he went on to become the youngest founder
00:33:43at, like, one of the top ten global investment firms.
00:33:47You two know each other, right?
00:33:49I mean, this would be the perfect chance for you to introduce us to each other.
00:33:52I haven't seen him in a long time, Vince.
00:33:56And I told you I'm not feeling well.
00:33:58Come on, babe.
00:33:59I mean, everybody's going to bring their wife and their girlfriend.
00:34:03Do you know how embarrassing it would be for me if I didn't show up without my fiancée?
00:34:14Okay.
00:34:15Let me go upstairs and get ready.
00:34:17See?
00:34:17Yes.
00:34:17Okay.
00:34:20Thanks, babe.
00:34:22And your hair.
00:34:23If you could wear your hair done up, because I just think it looks so much better when it's
00:34:26done up, okay?
00:34:29Great.
00:34:31Okay.
00:34:33You know you don't have to.
00:34:35He's been working really hard to save up for the wedding.
00:34:38I can do this for him.
00:34:39But do you want to?
00:34:49Hey.
00:34:51Oh, my God.
00:34:52This party looks fantastic.
00:34:54Where the heck is...
00:34:55Hey, JT.
00:34:57What's going on, brother?
00:34:59Good to see you.
00:34:59And Elena.
00:35:00You know, I didn't know your friend was going to be here tonight.
00:35:02Yeah.
00:35:02You know, I'm a little secret, didn't you?
00:35:04Yeah, absolutely.
00:35:28Welcome back to the States, boss.
00:35:38Keep going.
00:35:38Keep going.
00:35:40Keep going.
00:35:40Keep going.
00:35:48See?
00:35:49We got to have a little bit of accountability here.
00:35:51Vince Dolan, fintech startup guy.
00:35:54That's his fiancee, Gwen, I think.
00:35:57Is he good to her?
00:35:58Well, he brings her to these parties all the time,
00:36:02but he's ambitious.
00:36:04You know the type.
00:36:07Yeah, yeah, have you seen Tommy around?
00:36:08He was like, you know, I'm okay.
00:36:11Yeah, if you could just top her up real quick, please.
00:36:13Vince, I really can't drink anymore.
00:36:14I'm getting really dizzy.
00:36:15It's just a little bit of champagne, okay?
00:36:22Thanks.
00:36:25Hey, I'm going to go to the restroom.
00:36:27Yeah, sure. You want me to come?
00:36:29No, you stay and have fun.
00:36:30Okay, cool.
00:36:38Where are you going?
00:36:39It's too cold out here.
00:36:57Are you lost?
00:36:58I'm lost.
00:37:30Sorry, I was just looking for the bathroom.
00:37:32I'll go.
00:37:33You don't have to.
00:37:37The restroom is through that door.
00:37:39It's okay, I don't want to intrude.
00:37:41There's no such thing as intrusion between me and you.
00:37:45So please, go.
00:37:47I insist.
00:38:18His warmth.
00:38:21Her eyes.
00:38:29It's been ten years since I saw him.
00:38:32So why do I still feel this way?
00:38:36How can he be so close, yet still so far?
00:38:52Thanks for letting me use your bathroom, Mr. Lansing.
00:38:59I'll go now.
00:39:00What'd you call me?
00:39:05Mr. Lansing?
00:39:06I don't remember you being so formal.
00:39:17It's been a while.
00:39:20Hasn't it, Snowflake?
00:39:24It's been a while.
00:39:26Yeah, nearly ten years.
00:39:28But you still remember.
00:39:36You can't realize you're making a fucking mistake right now.
00:39:38I don't know what the hell else to do!
00:39:40Why do you care?
00:39:41You just showed up at our door four years ago.
00:39:43You're not even real family.
00:39:50You're not even real family.
00:39:52Yeah.
00:39:53I remember.
00:39:58Your fiancé.
00:40:00Makes you happy?
00:40:05Yeah.
00:40:05Of course he does.
00:40:08I notice that you don't wear your mom's necklace anymore.
00:40:11My mom died when I was eight.
00:40:13She gave me this before she died.
00:40:15My own little good luck charm.
00:40:20I lost it a few years ago.
00:40:23I'm sorry to hear that.
00:40:24I know how much it meant to you.
00:40:27You changed your hair.
00:40:28Well, I had to grow up eventually.
00:40:30For you, for him.
00:40:33Look, we don't have to do this right now.
00:40:36Okay, this is who I am now.
00:40:38And this is who you are now.
00:40:41I should go.
00:40:42Vince is probably waiting on me.
00:40:44How's your ice skating?
00:40:47You're still skating, right?
00:40:50I haven't been on the ice in years.
00:40:52Why?
00:40:54Gwen, it's me.
00:40:58You can tell me the truth.
00:41:13There you are.
00:41:18I invited you here to have fun.
00:41:21Not mope around your room all night.
00:41:23Come on.
00:41:23Michael, this is Gwen.
00:41:25She's engaged to Vince Dolan.
00:41:27Gwen, this is...
00:41:28Michael Royce, of course.
00:41:30It's nice to meet you, Mr. Royce.
00:41:32Uh, Dolan.
00:41:34I'll let you two talk.
00:41:37It was nice seeing you again.
00:41:39It was nice to see you as well.
00:41:47You okay, big guy?
00:41:49Um, yeah.
00:41:50Yeah.
00:41:51You sure?
00:41:52She looks familiar.
00:41:59Damn, man.
00:42:01I didn't know you were still talking to Tati.
00:42:03She just messaged me.
00:42:04She's apparently back in the States, so...
00:42:06Does Gwen know about you two?
00:42:08Dude, do you think me and Gwen would still be engaged
00:42:10if she knew?
00:42:11No.
00:42:11Man, you've got Tatiana Volkova,
00:42:13Russia's star ice skater
00:42:15and two-time Olympic gold medalist,
00:42:16practically begging to fuck you.
00:42:18And you're still gonna marry Gwen?
00:42:20Well, you guys know Tati is...
00:42:22She's all passion, right?
00:42:24Not all bland and boring, like...
00:42:26Like what?
00:42:29What were you guys talking about?
00:42:31Huh?
00:42:33What were you guys talking about?
00:42:34Nothing.
00:42:36Uh, yeah, we're just, you know,
00:42:37talking about bland and boring work stuff.
00:42:39Hey, can we go home?
00:42:42Well, I mean, I could get you something.
00:42:43Maybe something warm, like tea.
00:42:45Okay.
00:42:48Uh, yeah.
00:42:49Give me a second.
00:42:50I'll be right back, okay?
00:42:55All warmed up now?
00:43:00Miss Tyler, lavender, tea, and honey.
00:43:03As of Crested.
00:43:28Hey, what exactly is this?
00:43:31Hey, hey, what's that?
00:43:32I just asked a server for them.
00:43:34Huh.
00:43:35Okay.
00:43:36I'm ready to call him over Black, I think.
00:43:38I think we need to get the hell out of here.
00:43:40Okay.
00:43:40Cool.
00:43:47I mean, who does Aaron Lansing think he is?
00:43:50I mean, how's the prick like that end up being the protege to Michael Lloyd's?
00:43:54Are you even listening to me?
00:43:56Yeah.
00:43:57Sorry.
00:43:59You sure you guys were just friends?
00:44:01You didn't like data or anything?
00:44:03No, never.
00:44:05And we were more like family.
00:44:06Yeah, that makes way more sense.
00:44:08He's got way more options.
00:44:15Why haven't you texted me back?
00:44:18Well, uh, we are coming back from an event.
00:44:21Then come see me.
00:44:23Or are you too busy with a little American husband?
00:44:27Oh, I don't know.
00:44:28Vince.
00:44:30Do you want more photos?
00:44:32Or do you want the real thing?
00:44:35I'll be there soon.
00:44:37I gotta go to the office.
00:44:41Okay.
00:44:42Um, you want to ask the driver to drop me at mine?
00:44:44Well, actually, um, would you be okay if you just got another ride?
00:44:47Because it's really urgent.
00:44:49It's a work emergency.
00:44:52Yeah.
00:44:55I'm sorry about the way things went tonight, okay?
00:44:57I'm gonna make it up to you.
00:44:59Okay?
00:45:00I love you.
00:45:01I love you.
00:45:03I love you.
00:45:04All right, I'll see you later.
00:45:14Step on it.
00:45:15Wait, my umbrella!
00:45:15Okay.
00:45:35All right.
00:45:37Bye-bye.
00:45:45Hey, go.
00:45:48Baron, he came for me.
00:46:02Come with me.
00:46:25Keep going, keep going.
00:46:34Great, nice one.
00:46:48Well, what'd you think? Should I do the program at Worlds?
00:46:51Absolutely. I think if anyone's got a shot at Worlds, it's you.
00:46:54You think so?
00:46:55I know so. And I know you. You were born to skate, Snowflake.
00:46:59I promise I won't forget about our deal when I become world champion.
00:47:04What deal?
00:47:05You know, that if we're both still single by 30, we get married.
00:47:10How could I ever forget that deal?
00:47:12You ever think about the fact that I've been living with you and Graham since I was, like, for a
00:47:17while now?
00:47:18Exactly. You're not just a friend, you're family.
00:47:21That's why it makes sense that you'd be my backup husband.
00:47:27Backup husband, huh?
00:47:38Erin Lansing, my best friend, my safe place, my home.
00:47:42She's the one thing in my life I can't imagine losing.
00:47:45And tonight, I'll finally tell her how I feel.
00:47:47Buen, the truth is...
00:47:51is that I love...
00:47:55Buen, I love you.
00:48:00Fuck.
00:48:01Okay, here it goes.
00:48:06Gwen Tyler, will you be my girlfriend?
00:48:20I know that it's only been like three weeks, but I just know that you're the one.
00:48:25That's really sweet.
00:48:26No one's ever said anything like that to me.
00:48:32Okay, so now that, that is crazy.
00:48:34You are just so beautiful.
00:48:38Even with your emo highlights.
00:48:42You don't like my hair?
00:48:44Of course, I love your hair.
00:48:45It's just, you know, I think it's gonna be even more beautiful when it's a darker brown.
00:48:49Yeah.
00:48:50The point is that I think that you're stunning because I really like you.
00:48:56You really like me too, right?
00:49:00Please say no.
00:49:02Please say no.
00:49:14Vince, before we make anything official...
00:49:19There's someone I need to talk to first.
00:49:21Sure, yeah.
00:49:34Aaron?
00:49:35Where are you going?
00:49:36Aaron!
00:49:36Stop!
00:49:37Look at me!
00:49:39I got a distant relative in England, thought I'd check it out.
00:49:42What?
00:49:43When did you decide that?
00:49:45If I hadn't come into your room, you were just gonna sneak out in the middle of the night?
00:49:48I'm not the only one keeping secrets.
00:49:50When were you planning on telling me and Graham about your new boyfriend?
00:49:55Have you...
00:49:57Were you spying on me?
00:49:58I mean, what do you even see in that guy? Tell me!
00:50:01He's nice!
00:50:02And he's sweet!
00:50:03And he...
00:50:03He understands me!
00:50:05I think that's bullshit!
00:50:06The same guy who wants you to change your hair?
00:50:08How is that nice?
00:50:09What the fuck else is he gonna make you change, huh?
00:50:10Nothing!
00:50:11Because at least he'll be here!
00:50:13When you were gonna fly halfway across the world without even saying goodbye!
00:50:17Let me tell you something, if you can't realize you're making a fucking mistake right now,
00:50:19I don't know what the hell else to do!
00:50:21Why do you care?
00:50:22You just showed up at our door four years ago, you're not even real family!
00:50:27I want him to stay, but how can I tell him that, when I'm clearly just a burden to him?
00:50:32I want to stay, but how can I watch her with someone else when I love her this much?
00:50:37I have to go.
00:50:41You know what hurts?
00:50:42It's not even you leaving, it's that you're too much of a coward to tell me why!
00:50:46But yeah, go, go! You don't have to stay and watch me ruin my life!
00:51:01You're not just a friend, you're family!
00:51:04That's why it makes sense that you'd be my backup husband!
00:51:24You're not just a friend, you're family!
00:51:25I live a little!
00:51:26A what?
00:51:41Hey Erin! Look, I'm sorry!
00:51:44Okay? I don't wanna end things like this...
00:51:46Not with you...
00:51:48Erin?
00:51:49...
00:52:04Aaron?
00:52:07Aaron?
00:52:14Why did you leave?
00:52:16You were the one person I thought would stay.
00:52:22Aaron?
00:52:23Hey, we're here.
00:52:26I dreamed of Aaron again.
00:52:31Calling out another guy's name in your sleep while you're engaged with someone else?
00:52:35That's a great look.
00:52:36What?
00:52:37You said his name.
00:52:38Aaron.
00:52:39Isn't that the guy you haven't seen in, like, what, ten years?
00:52:42It was just a dream.
00:52:43Great.
00:52:46I'm engaged to Vince now.
00:52:49Aaron was just a stranger.
00:52:53Hey, hey.
00:52:55Hey.
00:53:01Babe.
00:53:02Why don't you pick up before, you know?
00:53:03I was worried about you.
00:53:04I'm sorry, my phone died.
00:53:06I was out for an interview.
00:53:07I had a deadline.
00:53:08That can wait, right?
00:53:09Because I got that party with Michael Royce.
00:53:11I really need you to go to that.
00:53:13Vince, I'm on my period, and I'm low on iron right now.
00:53:18Uh, well, we could totally pack your iron supplements, and then we'll make sure, you know, I promise that you
00:53:23won't even have to drink.
00:53:24Okay?
00:53:27Hey, please.
00:53:29I really, really need you to come to the party tonight.
00:53:32I really need to impress Michael Royce.
00:53:34He's like the richest guy on the side of the country, and there's going to be a ton of top
00:53:36investors.
00:53:37I mean, there's even going to be Aaron Lansing.
00:53:41Aaron Lansing?
00:53:44Graham, I'm home from practice.
00:53:46Is dinner ready?
00:54:02Who are you?
00:54:03Aaron Lansing.
00:54:05Okay, Aaron Lansing.
00:54:07You want to tell me why you're in my house?
00:54:09Oh, good.
00:54:10You met each other.
00:54:11Sweetie, this is Aaron.
00:54:13Your grandfather and his grandpa are old friends, and he's going to be staying with us for a while.
00:54:18Just think of him as family.
00:54:21Okay, I have to get to work, be nice, try to get to know each other, okay?
00:54:35You hungry yet, Emo?
00:54:37I don't know who you're calling Emo.
00:54:39You're the one who has to dye in your hair and piercings.
00:54:43Well, I'm not the one listening to Divorce Dad Rock.
00:54:47Here.
00:54:48Catch.
00:54:51Team's passing it out for good luck.
00:54:53I don't need it, but maybe it could help cheer you up.
00:54:55What the hell am I supposed to do with this?
00:54:57I don't know.
00:54:58Put it on a charm bracelet or something.
00:55:07Aaron Lansing.
00:55:08He graduated from Cambridge Business School, and he went on to become the youngest founder at one of the top
00:55:13ten global investment firms.
00:55:16You two know each other, right?
00:55:17I mean, this would be the perfect chance for you to introduce us to each other.
00:55:21I haven't seen him in a long time, Vince.
00:55:24And I told you I'm not feeling well.
00:55:26Come on, babe.
00:55:27I mean, everybody's going to bring their wife and their girlfriend.
00:55:31Do you know how embarrassing it would be for me if I didn't show up without my fiancée?
00:55:41Okay.
00:55:42Let me go upstairs and get ready.
00:55:44See?
00:55:44Yes.
00:55:45Okay.
00:55:47Thanks, babe.
00:55:49And your hair.
00:55:50If you could wear your hair done up, because I just think it looks so much better when it's done
00:55:53up, okay?
00:55:56Great.
00:55:58Okay.
00:56:00You know, you don't have to.
00:56:02He's been working really hard to save up for the wedding.
00:56:04I can do this for him.
00:56:06But do you want to?
00:56:17Oh, my God.
00:56:18This party looks fantastic.
00:56:20Where the heck is...
00:56:21Hey, JT.
00:56:23What's going on, brother?
00:56:24Good to see you.
00:56:25And Elaine, huh?
00:56:26You know, I didn't know your firm was going to be here tonight.
00:56:28Yeah, you know, I had a little secret, didn't you?
00:56:29Yeah, absolutely.
00:56:52Welcome back to the stage, boss.
00:57:02Keep going.
00:57:03Keep going.
00:57:12See?
00:57:13We got to have a little bit of accountability here.
00:57:14This is good.
00:57:14Vince Dolan, fintech startup guy.
00:57:18That's his fiancée, Gwen, I think.
00:57:21Is he good to her?
00:57:21Well, he brings her to these parties all the time, but he's ambitious.
00:57:27You know the type.
00:57:30Yeah, yeah.
00:57:30Have you seen Tony around?
00:57:32He was like...
00:57:32Oh, no, I'm okay.
00:57:34Yeah, if you could just top her up real quick, please.
00:57:36Vince, I really can't drink anymore.
00:57:37I'm getting really dizzy.
00:57:38It's just a little bit of champagne.
00:57:39Okay.
00:57:48Hey, I'm going to go to the restroom.
00:57:49Yeah, sure.
00:57:50You want me to come?
00:57:51No, you stay and have fun.
00:57:53Okay, cool.
00:58:00Where are you going?
00:58:02It's too cold out here.
00:58:03It's too cold out here.
00:58:19Are you lost?
00:58:20Are you lost?
00:58:50Sorry, I was just looking for the bathroom.
00:58:53I'll go.
00:58:54You don't have to.
00:58:57The restroom is through that door.
00:59:00It's okay, I don't want to intrude.
00:59:01There's no such thing as intrusion between me and Yo.
00:59:04So please, go.
00:59:07I insist.
00:59:10I insist.
00:59:36His warmth.
00:59:39Her eyes.
00:59:41Your eyes.
00:59:47It's been ten years since I saw him.
00:59:50So why do I still feel this way?
00:59:54How can he be so close, yet still so far?
01:00:09Thanks for letting me use your bathroom, Mr. Lansing.
01:00:16I'll go now.
01:00:17What'd you call me?
01:00:22Mr. Lansing?
01:00:23I don't remember you being so formal.
01:00:34It's been a while.
01:00:36Hasn't it, Snowflake?
01:00:40It's been a while.
01:00:42Yeah, nearly ten years.
01:00:43But you still remember.
01:00:52You can't realize you're making a fucking mistake right now.
01:00:54I don't know what the hell else to do!
01:00:55Why do you care?
01:00:57You just showed up at our door four years ago.
01:00:59You're not getting real family.
01:01:07Yeah.
01:01:09I remember.
01:01:10I remember.
01:01:12I remember.
01:01:13I remember.
01:01:13I remember.
01:01:13Your fiancé.
01:01:15It makes you happy?
01:01:19Yeah.
01:01:20Of course he does.
01:01:23I noticed that you don't wear your mom's necklace anymore.
01:01:26My mom died when I was eight.
01:01:28She gave me this before she died.
01:01:30My own little good luck charm.
01:01:35I lost it a few years ago.
01:01:37I'm sorry to hear that.
01:01:38I know how much it meant to you.
01:01:41You changed your hair.
01:01:42Well, I had to grow up eventually.
01:01:44For you or for him.
01:01:47Look, we don't have to do this right now.
01:01:50Okay, this is who I am now.
01:01:52And this is who you are now.
01:01:55I should go up.
01:01:56Vince is probably waiting on me.
01:01:57How's your ice skating?
01:02:00Still skating, right?
01:02:03I haven't been on the ice in years.
01:02:05Why?
01:02:08Gwen, it's me.
01:02:11You can tell me the truth.
01:02:25There you are.
01:02:30I invited you here to have fun.
01:02:33Not mope around your room all night.
01:02:35Come on.
01:02:36Michael, this is Gwen.
01:02:37She's engaged to Vince Dolan.
01:02:39Gwen, this is...
01:02:40Michael Royce, of course.
01:02:41It's nice to meet you, Mr. Royce.
01:02:43Uh, Dolan.
01:02:45I'll let you two talk.
01:02:48It was nice seeing you again.
01:02:50It was nice to see you as well.
01:02:59You okay, big guy?
01:03:00Um, yeah.
01:03:01Yeah.
01:03:02You sure?
01:03:03She looks familiar.
01:03:11I didn't know you were still talking to Tati.
01:03:13She just messaged me.
01:03:14She's apparently back in the States, so...
01:03:16Does Gwen know about you too?
01:03:18Dude, do you think Gwen would still be engaged if she knew?
01:03:21No.
01:03:21Man, you've got Tatiana Volkova, Russia's star ice skater and two-time Olympic gold medalist,
01:03:26practically begging to fuck you.
01:03:28And you're still going to marry Gwen?
01:03:30Well, you guys know Tati is...
01:03:32She's all passion, right?
01:03:34Not all bland and boring, like...
01:03:36Like what?
01:03:39What were you guys talking about?
01:03:41Huh?
01:03:42What were you guys talking about?
01:03:44Nothing.
01:03:45Yeah, we're just, you know, talking about bland and boring work stuff.
01:03:48Hey, can we go home?
01:03:51Well, I mean, I could get you something.
01:03:53Maybe something warm, like tea.
01:03:55Okay.
01:03:56Uh, yeah.
01:03:58Give me a second.
01:03:59I'll be right back, okay?
01:04:04All warmed up now?
01:04:09That's Tyler.
01:04:10Lavender, tea, and honey.
01:04:11As of Custon.
01:04:34Hey, hey.
01:04:36What exactly is this?
01:04:38Hey, hey, what's that?
01:04:40I just asked a server for them.
01:04:42Huh.
01:04:43Okay.
01:04:44I'm ready to call Uber Black, I think.
01:04:45I think we need to get the hell out of here.
01:04:47Okay.
01:04:47Cool.
01:04:54I mean, who does Aaron Lansing think he is?
01:04:57I mean, how's a prick like that end up being the protege to Michael Royce?
01:05:01Are you even listening to me?
01:05:03Yeah.
01:05:04Sorry.
01:05:05You sure you guys were just friends?
01:05:07You didn't like date or anything?
01:05:09No, never.
01:05:11And we were more like family.
01:05:13Yeah, that makes way more sense.
01:05:14He's got way more options.
01:05:21Why haven't you texted me back?
01:05:23Well, we are coming back from an event.
01:05:27Then come see me.
01:05:28Or are you too busy with a little American husband?
01:05:32Oh, I don't know.
01:05:34Vince.
01:05:35Do you want more photos?
01:05:37Or do you want the real thing?
01:05:40I'll be there soon.
01:05:42I gotta go to the office.
01:05:46Okay.
01:05:47Um, can you ask the driver to drop me at line?
01:05:49Well, actually, um, would you be okay if you just got another ride?
01:05:52Because it's really urgent.
01:05:54It's a work emergency.
01:05:57Yeah.
01:05:59I'm sorry about the way things went tonight, okay?
01:06:02I'm gonna make it up to you.
01:06:04Okay?
01:06:04I love you.
01:06:05I love you.
01:06:08All right, I'll see you later.
01:06:17Step on it.
01:06:18Wait, my umbrella!
01:06:50Man, he came for me.
01:07:04Come with me.
01:07:05Come with me.
01:07:06Come with me.
01:07:07Come with me.
01:07:08Come with me.
01:07:09Come with me.
01:07:10Come with me.
