A Million Little Things (2018) s05e11 Episode Script

1
Greta Strobe, will you marry me?
Of course, yes.
Previously on
"A Million Little Things"
If nobody ever tries
to make a difference,
then nobody ever will.
So you want to run against Dottie Lewis?
I'm Regina Howard,
and I'm running for Boston City Council.
It's Benny. Do I know you?
I'm not stalking you.
I'm stalking your Corolla.
This is the first car I ever owned.
Dad, why are you on a dating app?
Your dad and I are splitting up.
Sometimes you don't get
to choose who you love.
No, you don't.
I know I'm ready to
let go of this house,
but I don't know that I'm ready
to let go of everything else.
Are you saying that maybe you'd stay?
Uh, we just finished upstairs.
Okay.
Carter, when I asked
you to be our officiant,
I didn't think it would mean
a phone call every 28 seconds.
Okay, I will see you
and Delilah in an hour.
And the next time you call me,
I am sending you to voicemail.
Your voicemail is full.
I know it's full.
It's full of messages from you.
Bye.
Okay. It may be our wedding,
but this is his wedding day.
I know. I made a joke about us eloping,
and he cried for ten minutes.
What are you guys looking at?
I wanted to check out some photos
of Halmoni and Harboji's wedding
and see if their best
man wore a pocket square.
And he did. But don't worry.
Mine is way cooler.
Look at your Dad.
I don't think I've ever
seen him without an apron on.
You know, back in high school,
Greta used to come by the Donut Palace
when I was working there.
Your mom was the Princess of Donuts.
I know!
I still don't understand why
you walked away from the throne.
Right?
You know, somehow Greta always knew
when I was working.
Yes, sure did.
What?
I got embarrassed for a second.
But then I I remembered that
we're getting married later today,
so I could just tell you the truth,
which is
I never knew when you were working.
I just came by, like, all the time
to see if you'd be there.
My hit ratio was like 10%.
What? I didn't know that.
My dad never told me.
Obviously he didn't approve.
No, no, I don't think that was it.
I think he didn't tell you because
he didn't want me to seem needy.
I mean, he would sneak me bear claws
just to make it look like I
had come there for the donuts.
Instead of for the princess of them.
Mm. Mm-hmm.
I wish he could be here.
Don't worry. He is.
Obviously, based on
the energy you're giving
and I'm receiving,
you weren't talking about me.
We were talking about Harboji.
Yeah, and how totally cool he was,
even if he wasn't slinging crullers.
He'd be so happy for you.
You know, he used to
give me donuts half-price.
Oh, really? 'Cause Greta said
Shh.
We're We're having a nice moment.
Yeah, that's exactly what happened!
The pistons hit and bent the valves,
which is why I keep telling you folks,
"You gotta replace those timing belts."
You're listening to "The Auto Guys."
We'll be right back.
Why do you even like this show?
In the nine years that I have known you,
I have never once
seen you work on a car.
City council elections are coming up.
Do you know who you're voting for?
If you're thinking Regina Howard,
you should know the facts.
Oh, my God.
Here's what Regina Howard
had to say about Councilwoman Lewis.
Most politicians in this city
say they want to help the homeless,
but Councilwoman Lewis is
actually doing something.
A ringing endorsement.
- And yet now she's running against her.
- What?!
Just another example
of how Regina Howard
flip-flops on the issues.
She has no experience in public office.
In fact, her only experience
in the private sector
is two failed restaurants.
Regina Howard equals failure.
And failure is not what Boston needs.
That's enough of that.
I've only been in the
race for two weeks,
and she already has
attack ads out against me?
What I'm hearing is,
she's scared of you.
Yeah, I I would be scared of me, too,
after hearing that.
I I mean, she's not wrong.
Two of my restaurants failed.
Yeah, but then you
got back on your feet,
started a new business,
and it's thriving.
Oh, we got to fight back.
We got to fight fire with fire.
No, I don't I don't
want to stoop to her level.
Gina, this is what it
means to be in politics.
It's a dirty game.
Hey, Benny, just calling to make sure
we're still on for Friday.
What am I hearing? Are you peeing?
'Cause we're not there yet, Benjamin.
No, I'm not peeing.
You'll be happy to know
I'm washing the car.
Oh, you're washing my car?
No, I'm washing my car,
which we know is mine
because if it were your car,
I wouldn't be washing it.
We're all set for Friday.
I found four other guys.
Good.
Rome and Eddie are in as
long as the guys you bring
aren't ringers like last time.
Ringers?
Just 'cause your best
player is in a wheelchair
Hey, hey, you should save the smack talk
for Friday, alright?
Hey, Gary.
Oh, excuse me.
My very attractive roommate
has entered the room.
- What's up?
- Inez just called.
She has a fever,
so she can't watch Javi tonight.
I might just swing by the mall
and get a tuxedo onesie.
They'll never have your size.
Boom. Roasted.
I don't want to be the couple
that brings a baby to a wedding.
What if he cries during my toast, huh?
Steps on my laughs?
I have a I have a Seinfeld
cadence thing going on.
Okay. People are gonna love it.
Hey, if you want, I can look after him.
I'm just staying in
tonight and doing laundry.
Look at you, doing laundry,
washing cars.
How about you come over here,
watch Javi tonight,
and you can use our
laundry machines for free?
- Uh, Gary
- Deal.
Say like 4:00-ish.
That give you enough time to vacuum
the inside of my car?
Bye.
Boom.
What did you just do?
What did I just do?
I just solved a problem
within 14 seconds
of you presenting it to me.
I should throw on some headphones
and cut to a commercial because
you're in the room with
Why is your face doing that?
I'm not leaving our 4-month-old baby
with some rando whose
only decision making
I'm aware of is buying
your old lemon of a car.
Benny's not a rando.
He's great.
And he's majoring in
children's literature.
Oh, poor decision number two.
Okay, that's fair.
But he could probably
read his senior thesis
to Javi as a bedtime story.
I don't know the guy.
Yeah, I do.
I'm going to call Eddie and see
if he has any sitters he can recommend.
How about we go with a
sitter that I can recommend?
Eddie? Talk about poor decisions.
I don't want to wear it.
I don't want to wear it.
- Charlie?!
- I don't want to wear it!
I take it she loves the dress.
More than life itself.
I spent the whole car ride
trying to explain to her
that you and I had a baby,
even though we never had a wedding.
Oh, so I don't miss all
the fun parenting moments.
Hey, I'm sorry I didn't offer
to have you stay with us.
I just didn't want it
to be confusing for her.
I get it. But you don't have to
worry about that anymore,
'cause I, uh, started looking at places,
and I should have something soon.
So it's official. You're staying.
Yeah, I am.
Oh, it's Carter.
He wants to make sure I'm in the car.
Hi. Yes, I'm in the car right now.
You don't hear the blinker?
So bad.
Okay, fine. I'm almost in the car.
But I had to take your call.
So, really, you're the one delaying me.
Everyone take one, Okay?
It'll help with nausea
when we're on the boat.
Oh, smart.
And nobody is allowed to yak
on these sweatshirts, alright?
I spent way too much effort
hand-painting that "S."
Guys, a wedding on the water.
It's going to be so beautiful.
There's actually a really
sweet story behind it.
When Greta was a kid, she used to watch
"The Love Boat" with her parents.
Yeah, every week,
couples would board
that boat and find love.
Hence the name.
Sure, they'd fight when
they got to Acapulco,
but by the time they got to Mazatlán,
oh, set for happily ever after.
Of course, it was a different time
and catered exclusively
to heterosexual same-race couples.
Totally.
And if you saw a black female guest star
in the opening credits,
you knew Isaac was gonna get some.
Oh, I would watch that show
every Saturday night each week.
I'd just Dying to see
a gay couple on there.
- Oh.
- There There never was one.
That's why we want to get in a boat
and tell the world we're in love.
Oh, that's amazing.
Also, every other venue was booked.
Oh, no, it's really coming down.
Oh, don't worry.
I checked the forecast
on three different apps.
It's just a passing drizzle.
Coast Guard won't let us leave the dock.
I'm sorry.
Your wedding's not happening today.
- Get in. get in.
- Yeah, I'm soaked.
If it gets any worse out there,
I call dibs on the life preserver.
This is a disaster.
We need to call everyone and postpone.
Ahoy there, Mateys.
Welcome to the Salty Seagull.
Pick your poison.
Oh, sorry. We just ducked in
to step out of the rain
I'll take a vodka tonic.
And if there's any kind
of early-bird special
to double it for a dollar,
sign me up.
You got it.
The name's Lukasz.
Um, the rest of you,
let me know if I can get you anything.
Thank you.
I can't believe this.
Oh, the boat was booked out
for the next three months.
I'm going to start making calls.
Give me the RSVP list.
Alright.
Wait, don't call anyone yet.
I think I just got an idea.
Mm-hmm. Okay. Yeah.
Oh, no, no.
I I totally understand.
Yeah. Yeah.
You're You're busy
'cause you're in demand.
That's
Oh, you do?
That would be great. Uh, yeah.
What is her number? Uh-huh.
And how old is your niece?
Hey, can you ask whoever
that is to hold on for a sec?
Uh, Janice, would you mind
holding on for one sec?
Janet, sorry. Sorry. Yeah.
Could you hold on for one second? Sorry.
I think I found somebody.
Yeah, I heard.
You're going to leave
our baby with someone
you've never met who came recommended
by someone else you've never met,
instead of leaving him with my friend.
Janet, I need to call you back.
You can read as
many books as you want,
but just make sure that Javi is down
sometime between 7:25 and 7:30.
Anywhere in that five-minute window.
I know these times are specific, but
Hey, I get it.
The key to sleep training
is staying consistent.
My sister's going through
it with my nephew right now.
Oh, so you have a baby nephew
that's that's approximately
the same age as Javier?
Yeah, the little guy's five months now.
Just a little older than you, buddy.
They live on the West Coast.
Can't wait to meet him.
- Oh.
- So like I said,
sometime between 7:25 and 7:30.
Where is Javi?
There he is.
Where is Javi?
There he is.
Admittedly, the bit is pedestrian,
but he's crushing it.
He does appear to be crushing it.
Alright, gentlemen, we're off.
We'll be back, uh, no
later than 12:00, 12:30.
We'll be home by 11:00.
The woman lives for local news.
See you later.
Okay, Gina, when the caterers get here,
direct them to the kitchen.
On it. Um, does this place
have a kitchen?
Yeah. Okay, great.
Thank you.
Rome, can you help move
some of the tables to
clear out the space?
Consider it done.
Carter, make sure the florist
knows where we are.
Aye, aye, Captain!
I don't care that I'm not on a boat.
I promised myself I
would say that today.
Brides, something
tells me that this place
does not shy away from
a little holiday decor.
Can you check the stock room
and see if you can
find something subtle?
Yep. We're on it.
D, are you sure we can make this place
look good enough for our wedding?
Trust me, it's going to look great.
All we need to do is take
everything tacky off the walls,
which is basically everything.
No offense.
Despite what my outfit might suggest,
I have no emotional
connection to this job.
- Eddie, hey.
- Good news.
When I was out picking
up the tealight candles,
I found the acrylic paint
for the life preserver.
It's midnight blue, which honestly,
looks no different from 11:00 p.m. blue.
Amazing.
Don't forget Greta's suit.
Yeah, it's right here.
Oh, my God.
- Charlie.
- What?
I made it pretty.
I got to call you back.
Man, we're gonna need a boat
just to get to the wedding
that is no longer on a boat.
Oh. Uh-oh.
Benny.
Aww, look at that.
Even with the disguise,
our little guy is really cute.
It's a winner.
Almost makes up for the fact
that he has such an overprotective mom.
Are we we gonna talk about this now?
We can or we could just
forget it ever happened?
That seems That seems right.
Let's do that.
I'm sorry.
I just It's really
hard for me to leave him.
Believe me when I say that I get it.
It's also hard for me to leave him.
I also want him left in
the best possible care.
Sometimes it feels
like you're the manager,
and I can't even get
a key to the register.
What are you talking about?
We make all of our
parenting decisions together.
Are you really bringing up
the home birth?
No, actually, that's
not what I was thinking.
But it is a good example
of how me not being
on board with something
doesn't keep it from happening
the way it does with you.
Name one other thing.
Sleep training.
You told me you supported that.
Yeah. After you bought
out an entire Barnes Noble.
I just wanted you to
know the benefits of it.
No.
You basically gave me an ultimatum.
Agree with me
or do a book report on
this huge stack of books.
You're right. I'm I'm sorry.
I think it's just really
hard for me to let go.
I'm not just saying this for me.
It's good for you, too.
And I think it's important
that Javi see his parents
as a united front.
You don't have to raise
our kid by yourself.
I just need to accept that
you're the Kathie Lee to my Hoda.
Huh. Well
I'm diverse, so that makes me Hoda.
You're just the white
lady that sits next to me
drinking wine way too early.
The kitchen is this way.
And you know what?
Let's all agree to wait till Monday
to tell the health inspector
about whatever we may find in there.
Yeah, just over there.
Cool.
Thought you should see this?
Councilwoman Lewis,
before you head out,
I would like to show
you where our volunteers
are putting together the meals
for the free school lunch program.
- It'll only take a minute.
- Oh, take two.
Unbelievable.
We have to feed these kids now, too?
Do their parents not do anything?
What's next?
Are we going to be tucking
them into bed at night?
Oh, my God.
Why would someone send this to me?
It's horrible.
What are you talking about?
This is great. Wait
till people see this.
What? I am not showing this to anybody.
Oh, you have to.
She's playing ads with
a glowing sound bite
that you gave her.
People need to hear
this sound bite, too.
No. I I want to win
because my constituents see who I am
and want me to represent them,
not because I engage in
character assassination.
You need to respond
because the longer that ad
sits out there with no response,
the more people are going to believe it.
You know, you have
really good handwriting.
I better. I write things on
people's bodies permanently.
A fair point.
Whoo!
Mom? Dad? Uh, what
are you two doing here?
Hi, honey.
You realize it's your wedding day?
You look surprised to see us.
Oh, just surprised to see you together.
Not "together" together.
If there's a A singles table,
sign me up.
We just came by to drop off
something special for Katherine.
Oh, that's That's really sweet.
It was your mother's idea.
It's a little something sexy
for Katherine to wear
on your wedding night.
It was your mother's idea.
And yet you did nothing to stop her?
Sweetie, look, I know that this was not
what you had planned,
but if it makes you feel any better
on our wedding day,
everything went to
hell in a hand basket.
I always say the worst wedding days
result in the best marriages.
I don't know if you've seen
Dad's dating profile recently,
but you two are separated.
Yeah, I did see it, actually.
It came up on mine.
Don't worry. I swiped left.
Oh, my God.
Why are you telling me this
right before my wedding?
You were right, Lon.
She is a bridezilla.
Unbelievable.
This can't be happening.
Greta?
Hey.
This is a disaster.
And I know you're going to say
everything's going to be fine, but
No, you're right.
This is a total tear-down.
This is not what I hoped
for for our wedding day.
I don't want to be one of
those couples that says,
"Oh, everything going wrong
on the wedding day,
that's a good thing."
Then 25 years later, I
see you on a dating app
and I have to swipe left!
My parents are here.
Oh.
You know what's great about us?
Not our wedding-planning abilities.
No, those are literally in the toilet.
What's great about us
is that when one of us is spiraling,
the other one steps up.
And unless I'm mistaken,
it seems like you're the one that needs
to be spiraling right now.
So it's my turn to step up.
We are getting married
today, right here.
I mean, not right here, but out there.
You really want to get
married in this gross bar?
Gross is an understatement.
This may be the most
depressing bar I have ever seen.
And I went to all of Eddie's early gigs.
So if you're asking me,
"Do I want to get married
in this tacky bar?" the answer is no.
But if the question is,
"Do I always want to be able to say
that I was married to you
for as long as possible?"
the answer is absolutely yes.
So I pick this dump of a bar today
over any beautiful venue
that we might be able to find
two weeks from now.
Because that way, for
the rest of forever,
I can say that I was married to you
for two weeks longer
than I would have been.
Well, when you put it like that
Delilah's out there
putting lipstick on this pig.
Whatever it ends up looking like,
we are going to have
a wonderful wedding.
Because the truth is
the only thing I'm going
to be looking at is you.
While you are in a good mood
Mm-hmm?
My mother bought you lingerie.
I cannot believe that
you are moving back.
What made you want to leave France?
Was it the art, the wine,
the incredible bread?
I get it. It's enough already.
Well, selling the house
brought me back to the States.
And then since I've been back,
I just realized how
much I missed you guys.
We missed you, too.
And I missed too many things
with Sophie and Danny.
Their life is here.
And Charlie should be near her dad.
Yeah.
How is all of that going?
What do you mean?
I mean co-parenting
when you're not a couple.
Oh.
I-I know that
even for me and Gary,
it's difficult sometimes.
Well
Eddie's been really incredibly sweet
about everything.
I mean, sure, we've
had our growing pains,
but I think we're just both
determined to make it work.
Whatever that means.
What does that mean?
What? No, no, no.
It's not like that.
Is it because you don't want it to be?
You know, D,
I came into this friend group
after all of that.
If memory serves,
you still got caught in
some of the crossfire.
Yes, indeed. And that was super fun.
But my point is, ever
since you got back,
whenever I see you and Eddie together,
it just makes sense.
And, you know,
all the things and the reasons
why you couldn't be together before
aren't really here.
They are, though.
There's kids involved,
and I don't want to do anything
that would hurt them or Eddie or
anyone else.
Whatever Eddie and I were,
he he's moved on.
So have I.
Here it is.
Are you sure this is okay?
I think it is beautiful idea.
I go help Katherine get ready.
Okay. Right through there.
Look what I found!
Hey, sweetie.
Oh! Charlie, put that down.
Charlotte!
You see that guy chasing the toddler
who's sprinting with a dart?
That's the babysitter recommendation
that you valued more than mine.
Way to be the bigger person.
Charlie! Put it down now!
Give me that.
Oh, thank you.
You're welcome.
Is that my suit?
Yeah, about that
Oh, God. What happened?
What happened is an amazing plan "B."
Have I seen what's in this bag before?
Actually, you have.
Oh, yes, please, definitely be cryptic.
I haven't had enough
surprises on my wedding day.
Quick question.
Am I still marrying the same person?
The day's not over yet.
Ooh, scissors!
Charlie!
If you're Greta, don't come in.
It's just me.
Wow.
- Mm.
- Thank you.
I knew I needed to see
you before the ceremony.
Otherwise we'd be in
for even more waterworks.
Also, I'm here to give you
a gentle kick in the tush.
It's go time. Everyone's ready.
We're just missing a bride.
You! No, Greta's out there.
I I was trying to be cute.
- It backfired.
- Okay. Thanks, Carter.
You can cue the music.
There's music, right?
It's gonna be great.
Thanks so much, Mom.
I wish Dad could be here today.
But I'm so glad
you get to walk me down
the aisle this time.
Gentle kick.

Good evening.
Dearly beloved, the
rain could not stop us.
When we were growing up,
I never thought I'd have
the chance to be myself,
and I certainly never
thought I'd get the chance
to be myself with you.
I mean, I dreamed about it.
I wrote about it in my In my diary.
A lot, in detail.
But I-I never thought
it would actually happen.
In high school, our
English teacher always said
the best stories are
surprising and inevitable.
And that's what our love is.
Katherine,
I loved you when we were young,
I love you now, and I
will love you forever.
Greta, I love that you're wearing
what my dad wore on his wedding day.
The idea that for the rest of my life,
whenever I open my eyes in the morning,
you'll be there,
is my dream come true.
I learned only this morning
that you used to come by the donut shop
to try to run into me.
It's like my dad
somehow knew before I did
that we were meant to be together.
He was just giving you those donuts
as a way to convince you to be patient,
to wait for me,
to be ready.
Greta
I am ready.
I'm ready to laugh.
I'm ready to love.
But most of all, I'm
ready for all the happiness
that you finally made me
realize that I deserve.
They're supposed to do that
after I tell them to,
but I get it.

time we were at a big party

I know where you're going with this.
And now we can just make out

Actually, I was gonna
to suggest that later
we sneak off to the coat room

Wow. I can't stop watching.
I know!
It's like the sex-ed video
they showed us in the eighth grade.
With the same actors.
Yeah, well, good for them.
Greta wanted them to get back together.
Oh, no, they're not back together.
Yeah, in the buffet line, Lana told us
that her and Lon are now
"Parents with Benefits."
Yikes!
Wait. Where is his other hand?

- Please, just
let me have this.

- With memories ♪
- Ooh!
- Of days gone by ♪
All right.
What's up, Charlie?
You gonna eat all those?
Not if there's no dipping sauce.
I'll go get you some.
But you stay here with Uncle Gary, okay?
'Kay.
Dipping sauce.
What's this?
Hey, it's Jon. Uh
I was hoping to speak to you,
not just leave a message
- Can I borrow that?
- With memories ♪
I just need you to do me a favor.
Love each other.
That never die ♪
You've gotta be kidding me.
It's not the last call he made.
No, yeah, it was.
When I came in to give him the mail,
he was standing on the balcony
just finishing up the call.
He made a call right after that.
To you.
Thank you, ma'am.
I'm gonna go check on the kids.
So you must go.
What the hell is this, Ed?
Huh?
Jon left you a voicemail?!
Please. Not here, okay?
I don't want to wreck
Katherine's wedding.
Start talking, Ed.
I know, man. I'm sorry.
I just felt so guilty.
You have every right to be angry.
I'm not angry. I'm furious.
You've been sitting on
this the whole time?!
I didn't know how to tell you.
I don't care about me.
You have a child with her.
The last thing Jon did
was give you permission
to be with Delilah.
No, he was telling me
that he knew about us.
It might have sounded
like that the first time
you heard it, but think, man, think.
Come on.
We know so much more now.
The man was suffering.
So much so that he couldn't
take care of the people
that he loved, but he
knew that you loved D.
You still love her, don't you?
Gary, come on, man.
Yes or no?
That is very complicated.
It's really not.
When I was trying to make
things work with Katherine,
- I meant every moment of that.
- And I don't know if you heard,
but Katherine is married to a woman now.
That door is so closed
for you on so many levels.
And to be honest, it's a wonder
that it was ever even a little bit open.
Yeah, but there's kids involved.
What kids? Huh?
The one you have in common?
Or the ones that you
helped through everything
while she was in France?
Or your son, who I just watched
you and Delilah and Charlie dance with
together like a family?
The family that you should be.
Ed, the only person that's
keeping the two of you
from being together now is you.
What if everyone hates us?
I'm the president of
everyone who hates everyone.
And I am begging you to do this.
Trust me.
I'll find another reason to hate you.
You okay?
Ugh! Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Gary, we need to get
you to a hospital, man.
No, Ed, no. We're not gonna do that.
Like you said,
we're not gonna wreck
Katherine's wedding.
But, Gary, come on!
No.
Don't make this the
reason that I hate you.
Ugh.
Yeah, we're okay.
Okay.
Now, if you'll excuse me
I have a toast to give.
And then you met Eddie,
and that was what we will
affectionately call a detour.
But seriously, Katherine,
you are such an incredible
friend to all of us.
And the truth is,
you haven't always gotten
as much back from us
as you've given, which is why I think
I speak for everyone when
I say we are so thrilled
that you found Greta.
It's been some crazy times.
You met so many people.
A lot of wins, couple body blows,
but but mostly wins.
And then one day you just said,
"Nah, what I really want is
what I had in the eighth grade."
And what did that look like, huh?
Trading friendship bracelets
and watching "My So-Called Life."
Slumber parties. You know
what I'm talking about.
We don't need to know everything,
but I'd like to know a few things.
This is probably, uh, an understatement,
but our friend group
has been through a lot,
especially these last few years.
And, uh, we're often reminded
of just how short life can be
Sorry. Sorry.
Uh, of just how short life can be. Be.
And, uh, as someone who found my
My soul mate later in life,
I just gotta say, watching you two
make every moment count
is so beautiful
And inspiring.
And
You know, at the end of the day,
we just we gotta remember
what's most important,
and that
is that we love each other.
Right?
I know I don't say it enough, but
I love you guys.
To eighth-grade love.
Eighth-grade love!
Congratulations, you two, huh?
We are married.
We totally are.
You know, I'm gonna clink glasses,
but I'm not gonna
drink because champagne
gives me a headache,
and I don't want to
have a headache later.
Fair enough.
Between you wearing what
my dad wore to his wedding
and me having lingerie
that your mom got me,
um, what do you say that
tonight we just cuddle?
Wow!
There really is a drop-off
in sex once you get married.
You guys, thank you so much
for giving me a lift home.
Surge pricing in the rain
is ridiculous, am I right?
Greta, if you're really not
gonna drink that champagne,
I'm a little parched from the ceremony.
Thank you.
Are you sure you want to do this?
You said I need to respond to Dottie.
This is how I want to respond.
Okay, let's go live.
Hello. I'm Regina Howard.
And as you probably know,
I'm running for Boston City Council.
By now, I'm sure many of
you have heard the attack ad
put out by my opponent,
Councilwoman Dottie Lewis.
Well, it's my turn
to tell you something.
Politics are full of people
who will tear you down
just to get ahead.
That's why so many great
people don't run for office.
And it's a part of running for office
I wish I didn't have to face.
But if this is the price of admission,
then I'm willing to pay it
because I care about Boston,
and I care about our community.
And, yeah,
two of my restaurants did fail.
But I have a new company,
and it's thriving
because I never give up,
which is the real thing Boston needs
Someone who will fight for you,
someone who knows your struggles,
because I've been there, too.
What a beautiful night.
I can't believe we pulled it off.
It's like we set up a whole party
for Greta's parents to make out.
What is it?
Listen, D, I overheard you
talking to Maggie earlier
about why you're staying, and
to be honest, part of
me was hoping you'd say
it was because of us.
And I know you told
Maggie that I'm over you,
but the truth is, I am not.
And after tonight, I just
couldn't wait another mi
Ugh! Oof.
All right, going forward,
I'm just gonna have to
wrap my head around the idea
that everybody knows that I am short.
Ah.
I texted Benny.
Oh, I did, too.
Like 67 times, so
You were right. He's fantastic.
And I know I need to be
better at co-parenting.
Nah, you're doing great.
Yeah, the truth is, Javi's very lucky
to have his mom take the lead.
Okay. What is going on with you?
You've been acting all
weird and sappy all night.
And you You just missed our turn.
We have to make a stop first.
That's why I texted Benny.
And Dr. Stein.
Earlier tonight, I
I coughed up some blood.
So we need to go to the hospital.
