S02e16 What about the old-Fashioned way? ??? -It is your fertile window.
-I missed that.
-Will you please marry me? -Yes.
Dad had another kid with holly.
Her name is rebecca.
I had this weird moment where i thought i had feelings for you.
You let william walker die thinking that i was his kid.
-How could you do that? -I want you out of this house.
You owe a substantial amount of money, and you need us.
-A merger is our only offer.
-Okay.
I'm a gay man, kevin.
-We're not related.
-So you lied to me? -I'm sorry.
I didn't mean-- -Just go! Dad wasn't her father.
She's not a walker.
She never was.
All right.
So where are you? -Hi.
Hi.
-No, it's kitty mccallister.
I'm calling for dr.
Feldman.
??? Before cell phones, no one had this much to say to each other.
You know what? Kevin's on his way.
-Did you tell him? -No, i didn't tell kevin.
There would be no need for a family meeting if i had Because everyone would already know.
Look, holly's trying to get into the ojai tax files.
What's the password? ??? Remember, she's the reason ojai's doing ok-- ??? -Saul, under no circumstances -No, i was just wondering if i'm--Right.
-No, no.
That--That's okay.
-Who is she talking to? -??? -I understand.
Okay.
-Oh, kitty, are you, uh -I don't know.
??? Yeah, i gotta go.
Bye.
If i don't get to work, Holly's gonna start ransacking my desk.
??? ????? Please, mom.
I don't have all day.
But please, i don't want anyone to overreact.
This affects rebecca more than anyone else, And it's not her fault.
Actually, you know what? Nothing has really changed.
So, i mean, how should i say this? Okay, you know what? Rebecca's not our sister.
Dad wasn't her dad.
D.
N.
A.
--Gotta love it.
Thank you, justin.
That's now exactly how i would've phrased it, But that's the gist of it.
Rebecca is not your biological sister.
-Oh, my god.
-Who's the dad then? -How long has she known? -Wait a minute.
How's rebecca? Wait, wait, wait, wait.
One at a time, one at a time.
Tommy, david--Holly's ex is rebecca's father.
Sarah, i guess rebecca has known for a few days now.
Kitty, i don't know how she's doing.
I called her, and she hasn't called me back.
I ew it.
This is-- This is all holly.
Sarah, it doesn't have anything to do with holly? ??? Kitty's right.
The only person We should be thinking about right now is-- ??? Kevin.
??? With his junior spy kit? What are you talking about? What? Nice try.
Okay.
??? Scotty obviously will cook.
Tommy, if you could bring some wine, that'd be great.
Justin, stay sober.
Sarah, you got the toast.
Kitty, since you write speeches for a living, we-- We would love it if you could officiate the ceremony.
Of-Officiate? Are--Are you engaged to scotty? No, i met some guy last night.
Yeah, of course to scotty.
Wow.
I realize it may be a shock to some of you, But congratulations might be nice.
Oh, honey.
This is so great.
-Thank you.
-??? -Wow.
You're getting married? -No, not married.
Committed.
No comments from the peanut gallery.
It would be so easy, man.
I'm--I'm--I'm happy for you.
It's just what we need right now.
Uh, when? -Saturday? -Saturday? Why the rush? We felt it was time, and since both of us have zero desire To throw some kind of fairy-Tale shindig-- Yes, i am looking at you-- We figure, why not? Congratulations.
Yeah, congratulations.
It's great.
Thank you.
You all sound so happy for me.
??? Can someone please tell kevin what's going on? What do you mean? I thought you were all here talking about me.
Honey, maybe you'd like to sit down.
There--There's been another little development.
What? You're not related? No.
No.
I-I agonized over meeting her, I could barely look at her for months, And now at i actually like her, i find out that She's just the love child of my dad's mistress and some guy.
I mean, and poor rebecca.
She's not even who she thought she was.
Okay, i'm at a loss.
Yeah, so i'm not overreacting,right? It's--It's not just the hormones.
No.
But your boobs do look bigger.
No, they're not.
No.
It's--It's just the bra.
They've got help.
Doesn't explain the glow.
Do you really think i'm glowing? I do.
Oh.
Just stop it.
Stop it.
You know what? You're just gonna get my hopes up.
I'm It's just from the shock of waking up with two sisters And finding out by lunch that i only have one.
Oh, yeah.
And kevin's getting married.
-What? -Yeah.
I feel like we've been preempted by a special news bulletin.
Should we change the date of our ceremony? Are you kidding me? The timing's perfect.
Mom'll be too preoccupied to be her loving but intrusive self.
Well, at least she'll be there.
You called your parents? Yes, and surprise, surprise-- They can't make it.
Oh, come on.
They live in arizona.
They can't drive five hours To be at their son's bonding ritual? Is that what we're calling it now? Because that sounds kind of kinky.
??? Well, a lot of people would say That's an accurate description of marriage.
Well, whatever we are calling it, Your parents should be there.
??? I never heard my parents use the word gay until i told them i was.
??? I know, but i'm tired of banging my head Against that particular wall.
Our whatever we're calling it will be better without them.
Are you really that okay with it? There's nothing i can do about it, So yes, i am okay.
Really.
I always believed that rebecca was his daughter.
I mean, there was such a remote possibility That she wasn't.
So when you agreed to bail out ojai, Did you know rebecca took a paternity test? ??? Sarah.
???Where you answer it.
Yes, i knew.
But that has nothing to do with the merger.
My only motivation was believing that i owed it to william To save his company.
And did you owe it to him to lie, too? -No, i never lied to him.
-Oh, come on, holly.
The only reason dad left you any money Was that he thought rebecca was his daughter.
Are you joking? ??? The initials of all his children--The last one was r.
Tell me he wasn't thinking of rebecca.
??? Besides, it's ancient history.
??? ????? I don't care how much money i gotta spend.
-You are not getting a dime.
-What, you're gonna sue me? -You bet.
-On what grounds? It's fraud, plain and simple.
???For over 20 years So if and when your father died, -I could inherit his business? -That's exactly what i think.
Well, you're insane.
Holly, will you give us a minute? Yeah, i would be glad to because your sister Obviously loses all reason when i'm the room.
Sarah, the merger included a non-Liability clause, And we all signed it.
She deceived us, tommy.
What--What's wrong with you? Me? You were the one who went looking for rebecca in the first place, You were the one who was obsessed with that baby picture, And you were the one who told her our dad was her father.
So if you're looking for somebody to blame, Look in the mirror.
God, tommy.
At least dad could keep her in line.
Look, sarah.
I'm not gonna let you bring this business down to get back at holly.
As copresident of this company, I'm telling you, that will not happen.
So just let it go.
sync:frs@²ë33 Okay, i need a guest count.
Oh, no, mom.
Is the family, a couple of scotty's friends And a few people from the firm.
That's it.
??? I called christoe, and he said he could do A lot of really nice flowers on a rush.
??? -It's really no problem.
-Mom, i don't care If you're on first-Name terms with the florist.
The answer is no.
Put scotty's parents down there.
They're not coming.
Well, you need to give people more notice.
It's not the notice part that's the problem.
It's the two grooms part.
You're not serious.
Look, mom, Not--Not every parent joins p.
F.
L.
A.
G.
When their kid comes out.
It's--It's okay.
It's okay.
Scotty wasn't expecting them.
No, no.
Even if you expect the worst from your parents, It doesn't mean it doesn't hurt when it happens.
-Could i call tm? -You could call them, But unless you tell them i'm a woman, I don't think you'll have much luck.
??? Do you remember how long it took for your father to adjust? -But he did.
-It's okay.
-Oh, no, it's not.
-Hey, guys.
Here, mom.
Uh, julia sai you wanted this.
??? Please, please, mom.
Scotty is in charge of cooking.
It's scotty who asked for more chafing dishes.
For goodness--Will you please get it thrgh your thick skull? I'm going to respect your wishes, No matter how much i disagree with them.
It's your wedding.

You mean your mom? No.
We're not talking right now.
I meant justin.
Oh, welljustin is just hurt and confused.
I'm sure you're hurt d confused.
Nora, if i would've known any of this, I would never have let it happen.
??? I'm glad you're in my life.
You don't need to say that.
Rebecca, last summer when justin was in iraq, You took care of me.
Don't you remember all those nights You stayed up late with me right here,watching old movies, And the times you answered the phone When i was too petrified to pick it up? Have i ever even thanked you? I would've done it whether you're family or not.
There's more to family than just d.
N.
A.
I don't give a damn about any stupid test.
U're a part of this family.
Sorry.
So you're coming saturday night.
Good, because i need your help.
I'm gonna call out these numbers.
Write them down.
Kevin and scotty have so much in common-- A zest for life, a wicked sense of humor, A love of hair products.
What? But n-No--No.
That's funny.
I thought you were officiating a ceremony, Not hosting a roast.
???To sit there and criticize when This has to be him.
Hello.
Hi, dr.
Feldman.
Uh-Huh.
Right.
No.
That's-- That's okay.
I had a feeling.
No, i know.
Thank you.
All right, you, too.
Bye.
Well, i'mi'm not glowing.
You okay? Yeah.
I guess dr.
Feldman was just humoring us, Letting us think we could get pregnant By actual human intercourse.
Well, at least we enjoyed the process.
Yeah, now it's back to petri dishes And hormones and mood swings.
You know, you don't have to put yourself through this.
Are you giving up? No, i'm not giving up.
??? That you didn't even want to have a baby.
??? All i'm saying is there are other options.
We could use surrogacy.
We could adopt.
I know.
But i still want to be pregnant.
This is not a problem that you can just table in subcommittee And move on to the next motion.
And pleasedon't try to fix this.
I found this in her desk.
How's heandling it? Ryan? Yeah.
He's having a hard time.

Why don't we get back to the contract? Well, i tried to do that with you for quite a few years.
-??? -??? Kevin, i know i didn't handle things too well back then.
You wouldn't even look ame.
You didn't want anyone at work to know.

You can accept my apology.
I'm not sure i can.
Time to celebrate your holy mantrimony.
Did you spend the entire car ride over here -Thinking that one up? -Yeah, so gb your jacket.

It didn't say anything about lesbians.
Ow.
It's okay.
I'm not in the mood anyway.

We'll wait.
Well, it's--It's kind of important And private.
Okay, scotty's parents aren't coming tomorrow.

You're gonna have to face 'em, man.
??? Are you thinking what i'm thinking? ??? Road trip.
-Road trip.

Super premium.
Nice.
You think i ought to bring a gift to the wandells? Yeah, like, uh, here's some beef jerky And some pine-Scented air freshener, And we hope you come to your gay son's wedding.
Yeah, i don't think buying them a gift is gonna convince 'em You're not a perv.
I'll look normal by comparison.
??? Oh, tell him.
It's not taboo anymore.
??? Like brother-Lawyer confidentiality.
Justin had the hots for rebecca.
??? Whoa! Oh, what--She's not related.
??? ??? Oh, it's scotty.

No, i was just worried the gods in charge of Crushing my hopes and dreams gave you cold feet.
Now that i know you're okay, i am profoundly happy.
I'll see you at the altar? ??? I'll be the one with warm feet.
Bye.
Everything okay? Yes, except i should've finished these canap\s ages ago.
You should not have to work so hard on your big day.
I wish there was more i could do to h-- Do you know what i could do? I could go outside and snip some fresh rosemary for garnish.
??? Okay.
And w-While i'm out there, I-I do have some beautiful hydrangeas in pots.
-I could put some of them in the living room.
-??? -So you don't-- -??? -Okay.

I'll get my shears.
???Thank you for--For everything.
No, i should be thanking you for making kevin so happy, And i get another son.
Oh.
Hey.
Hey, what are you doing here? Oh, i'm not pregnant.
Oh, honey, i'm sorry.
How are you feeling? I'm feeling like a caffeinated diet soda or-- Or maybe a vodka.
Well, soda's up top.
Vodka's in the freezer.
I guess i, uh, i just needed to get out of the house.
Did, um you and robert have a-- -I don't want to talk about it.
-Okay.
Oh, well, you know, it's just that-- That robert is ready to move on.
You know, he wants to adopt or use a surrogate.
It's like, plan a didn't work.
Go right on to plan b.
I know exactly what you mean.
Tommy laid into me about holly.
The only reason dad left her $10 million Is because he thought she was the mother of his child.
But i am supposed to just let that go.
Well, what--What do you think it is about men? Is it just in their genes? It's just the-- The move-On chromosome? I have no intention of moving on.
See those? Dad's personal files-- The ones that led me to rebecca in the first place.
If there is anything in there That proves that holly tried to defraud our family, I will find it.
How about you? What are you gonna do? I don't know.
I mean, robert has a point.
It's not like i haven't thought of it myself.
It's--Do--Do you-- Do you remember the time That you came to new york And i took you out for indian food? ??? Seven months pregnant, it was hotter than hell, The worst heartburn of my life.
I remember touching your stomach When we went back to my apartment, And--And--And cooper was practically doing somersaults.
And i just thought, how weird And how beautiful.
Now i-I don't know how i'm supposed to move on.
I don't know how i'm supposed to stop wanting that.
Kitty, you remember the somersaults.
I remember the heartburn.
You know what cooper remembers? Nothing.
There are no guarantees.
In the end, the only thing that matters Is that there's a child, and that lasts forever.
You know what? I think we passed it.
No, that was red cedar mall.
We're looking for red cedar terrace.
Not only am i getting hitched tonight, I pick today to meet the in-Laws who already hate me.
What is wrong with me? Who are you texting? No one.
I'm using my gps.
You have gps, and you let us drive around in circles this whole time? Well, i was having second thoughts, okay? We need to turn around.
Can i help you? Hi, i'm kevin walker.
Scotty's friend? Yeah.
Could i speak with you? Come on in.
Thank you.
I don't envy him.
So, uh (sighs) you like rebecca? It was a fleeting moment, okay? And besides, it doesn't matter.
She lied to me.
Listen, justin, It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see That you two have always connected.
So maybe it's something worth salvaging.
I have imagined his wedding day Since he was a little boy.
But what you two are doing, it's not a wedding.
It's not a union recognized by the church or the state.
Actually, it is.
In the state of california, it is.
But you're right.
It--It's--It's different.
And we're doing this because we want to be a family, And we cherish family as much as you do.
Scott is who he is.
We've accepted that, and we love him.
But don't ask us to celebrate this contrived event.
We don't want to hurt our son, But we can't sit there and have you rub our noses In this pretend wedding.
It is too painful And too insulting.
Thank you for your time.
I'll let myself out.
Uh, uh, kevin.
I have something i'd like you to givto scott.
Would you mind? The cuff links i wore at my wedding.
I don't know if scott will remember, but, um, I told him that he could wear them at his.
Mr.
Wandell, you could give these to him yourself.
Try to understand.
We're not bad people.
It's just, um I'll give them to him.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Who's this? Kitty? No.
Wait.
I don't know.
It's tommy, i guess.
That's your dad's car? Yeah.
Yeah, he got that car in, like, '79, So i guess it's justin.
Mom.
Isn't it time to get ready? Sorry, honey.
I got distracted.
Wh's wrong? Oh, there's this problem, And i know the answer is right here in front of me, I'm just--I'm trying to figure it out.
Daddy says sometimes the best way to figure out a problem Is to not think about it for a little while.
Well, your daddy's very smart.
Okay then, let's go get ready.
Hey.
Go away.
We're not supposed to see each other before the ceremony.
I have something important i have to tell you.
What is it? Did something happen in the living room? I have no idea.
I've been banned from going in.
I have a confession to make.
I didn't sleep at tommy's last night, And i didn't have a bachelor party -Because we drove to arizona to see your parents.
-You what? I thought i could convince them to come.
I'm so sorry.
-Kevin, what did you do,just show up at their doorstep-- -Here.
They're your father's.
I know.
I-I made this box for him in shop class.
He told me he was gonna put these in there for safekeeping So that one day, when When i got married, he'd, uh Oh, god.
We're looking at each other.
Who cares? I know i got carried away.
Yes, you did.
Damn it, kevin.
You deserve this night to be beautiful.
All right, yes, i got carried away.
I don't regret it.
Because tonight, kevin, you don't get to be guarded or cynical.
You and scotty deserve this night to be as romantic And memorable as anyone else's.
Thank you.
You gave us a wedding.
I thought that in true walker style, I would share with all of you a-A secret.
This isn't the first time that kevin's been married.
See, when were kids, we used to play wedding, And mr.
Mcbear officiated And i would wear mom's white nightgown.
You remember, the--The satiny number with ruffles That just screamed "bride" to me at the time, And to kevin, who wanted to wear it more than i did.
Right afterwards, we were the proud parents of five kids.
And i was the mom, Kevin was the dad, You know, because that's what our family looked like, So that's all we knew.
And now here we are at kevin's second wedding, And the rules are different, And--And things that we thought to be true Turned out not to be.
And it seems that when we give up on what was Well, that's when things that we thought improbable Or--Or impossible, even, Happen right before your eyes.
Well, as mr.
Mcbear would say It's time to exchange the rings.
Oh.
-What's wrong? -Oh, my god.
Kevin? You-You didn't bring any rings? Oh, for god sakes.
Here.
Here we go.
Okay, scotty, Please place,uh, tommy's ring On kevin's finger.
Kevin Please accept this ring As a symbol of my deepest love and affection.
Kevin, please place my husband's ring On scotty's finger.
Scotty, please take this ring As a symbol of my love and devotion.
And so by the authority that they have bestowed onto me, I now pronounce them, um O- -Officially-- -Married.
Hey.
Hey.
Looks like we're almost out of punch.
Can i talk to you for a second? Yeah.
What's going on? Look, i'm sorry.
I know what it feels like To find out that someone you trusted lied to you.
I'm not mad.
You're not? I mean, i thought i was.
I was I was just shocked and humiliated.
You didn't need to feel humiliated.
Well, i didn't need to be such a jerk either.
I mean, rebecca, i can't even imagine What you're going through.
So let's--Let's maybe start at square one.
Uh, uh, hi.
I'm justin walker.
You're not a walker.
You're just a girl i'm holding my hand out to really awkwardly.
It's nice to meet you.
-Do you need anything? -No, thanks.
You've outdone yourself again, little sister.
Thank you.
So i told kevin.
I came out to him, i mean.
Oh, saul.
I'm proud of you.
I always thought that all i had to do was just tell one person, You know, just say the word out loud, And well, everything would be easy.
Give yourself some time.
You don't have to do it alone.
I think that was the bravest thing i've ever witnessed.
It's amazing what our children can teach us.
Looks like you, me and mom are the only single girls left.
You don't haveo include me.
Oh, no.
We're like the mafia, us walkers.
Once you're in, you can never get out.
Well, i'm kind of glad to hear that.
Oh, hey.
I brought you this photo.
Dad had it for years.
I guess holly gave it to him.
Weird.
Okay, i'm confused.
I found it up at the ojai house.
Actually, it started everything.
It's dad's car,and since it wasn't justin I put two and two together.
This baby isn't me.
What? Are you sure? Yeah.
No, i didn't have cheeks like that.
It's definitely not me.
We all assumed it was rebecca, and we were wrong about that.
But what if we weren't wrong about everything? Dad used his children's initials to create his passwords-- Six initials, not five.
We all decided it was rebecca, But what if What if the's someone else out there? What if there's another "r Okay, i've heard enough.
I'm outta here.
-No, look, tommy, just hear me through.
-Sarah, come on.
Why don't you have a glass of wine? -You think i'm crazy? No, i don't think you're crazy.
I think you're angry and i think you're hurt.
Sarah, sarah, sarah, Holly lied to dad, okay? She duped him.
That's what happened.
That's right.
Doesn't explain the photo.
Listen, i found the photo, I put the puzzle together, And i know that there is something about this child.
Sarah, please.
Just stop.
I mean, holly, rebecca, thbusiness-- It's--It's just-- It's not your fault.
Yes, i-I know, you made a mistake.
But you can't just keep beating yourself up about it.
I mean, come on.
It's kevin's wedding.
Oh, i'm sorry.
It's fine.
It's fine.
Let's just go.
You all think i'm going crazy? I'm just losing my mind.
H-- Saul.
Oh, i see.
Everybody huddled together, talking about me.
No, no.
Saul, no.
Actually, we're not, s-- That's okay, kevin.
You tell everybody everything anyway.
Okay, i'll say it.
Fine.
I'm gay.
No.
W-What? You're gay? We weren't talking about you, saul.
Oh.
My god.
This is, like, the gayest week of my life.
Oh, wow.
It feel so good to get out of those heels.
Are you feeling more relaxed now that your officiant duties are over? Oh, you know, i am still on a high.
What you doing? I am pouring us a little nightcap.
It's not like i'm pregnant.
For you.
Cheers.
You know, i was, uh, I was thinking about all the hormone shots And the--The ultrasounds And all the ovulation sticks, And it's, uh It's exhausting.
You know, i-I think I just had it in my head that it had to be a certain way, And--And, you know, i get it.
Things don't always work out the way you plan.
Yeah.
I mean, kevin's wedding turned out better than mine.
There are kids everywhere that need families.
And we can give-- Yes.
Let's adopt.
-Really? -Yeah.
Oh, my god.
Oh, robert.
I love you so much.
-Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
-What? Who's gonna carry who across the threshold? We don't have to do that, do we? Oh, if that's the way you feel about it.
Oh, oh, god.
You're heavy.
You're not gonna take me all the way to the bedroom? It's funny.
It's our first time home as a married couple, And suddenly, i'm-- I'm not in themood.
Yeah, tommy warned me that would happen.
I'm glad your mom made such a fuss.
Me, too.
Come here.
Kevin, thank you.
Even though my dad couldn't be there, I felt like he was in spirit.
Can i meet you in the bedroom? I'd--I'd like to call him.
You should.
I was, uh, just looking for those contracts.
What's this? Oh, how'd that get in there? Doug must have mixed it in when he gave me his papers.
I'll mail it back to him.
Who's the kid? Oh, that friend that passed away, This is her youngest--Ryan.
I'm glad you came with me.
Oh, please.
It's my job.
Yes, but i enjoy spending time with you.
I like it, too.
-Kevin.
-Hey.
What--What are you doing here? Oh, okay, listen, If you and scotty had a fight.
It is perfectly normal.
Truth is, everyone's a little nervous on their wedding night.
You were right.
Okay, i've been thinking lot lately about dad, And all this--All this stuff's been coming back, And i wouldn't have actually thought about it If it hadn't been for scotty and his parents.
Anyway, there was this one time, Dad and i were at a conference for ojai.
It was the first time he tried to bond with me after i-I came out.
This isn't even what it's about.
What is it about, kevin? There was a guy there.
Doug.
Oh, god.
His name was doug.
He was telling dad about a friend of theirs who died-- A woman.
Who? I'm--I'm not sure, but he-- He gave dad an envelope, And i didn't think anything more of it, But i rememb dad asking how ryan was handling it.
And i just assumed ryan was this woman's husband, i guess.
But later, i was going through some contracts, And i found a picture.
What picture? The picture you found in ojai, the one we decided was rebecca.
Sarah, i swear, i never thought i'd seen that picture before, But i had.
I saw it then.
And when i asked dad who it was, He said it was the woman son.
You were right.
There was another "r," but it was never rebecca.
It was a boy, And his name was ryan.
Oh.
Mom.
Sarah.
Kevin, what are you doing here? You should be with scotty, driving down the coast Or buying tickets to cabo.
Mom, we have something we need to tell you.
What? What? Um it's about dad.
Hey.
Hey.
Sorry it took me so long.
This place is pretty hard to find.
Yeah, i'm not staying at my mom's anymore, So our other walk was kind of out of the way.
No, it's good.
You know, new settings, new situation.
So, um I've been thinking a lot about everything, And, um, the thing is, i I don't think that i can do what you're asking me to do.
I i-I don't think i can start from square one.
Oh, okay.
Justin, you were the firsperson to reach out to me.
Before anyonelse, you were my friend, And when everything was happening These past couple of weeks, i You're the person i wanted to talk to.
You always are.
You, too.
And i-I mean, everything's been crazy.
I mean, first i find out that i have this family That--That i never even knew existed, And then suddenly, i-I-I don't.
Rebecca-- But then it turns out that i do Because, by some miracle, You're all still willing to accept me.
And i can't help but wonder What if, in all of this insanity What? It was all just a way to meet you? -I'm not really sure what to do next.
-Me neither.
Oh.
