Our Dream Wedding (2021) Movie Script
1
OK, Hailey, Nurse Annie's gonna
take your pulse and vitals
and make sure everything's OK.
And pretty soon, you'll
be better than ever.
But first, there's
a really important
matter we ought to address...
Sweet or sour?
Both!
Ah!
Both it is.
Here you go.
Thank you, Dr. Natalie.
You are going
to make a great doctor
one day but a terrible dentist.
What's wrong?
Residency deadlines
are coming up soon
and I'm still undecided.
You're worried?
No.
Not really.
I mean, I have worrying
penciled in for tomorrow.
Just promise
you won't overthink it.
9 out of 10 doctors say the
10th one should mellow out.
Just follow your heart.
'Cause you're
thinking cardiology?
Whatever you decide,
we'll be lucky to have you.
Special delivery.
Bless you.
Mm.
Yeah.
Extra cream, no sugar, and
scorching hot, just like you.
Hmm, getting creative
with the compliments, huh?
Not at work.
People will gossip.
Let them talk.
I don't care who knows it.
I love you, Natalie...
Ssh.
I love you, too.
The kisses are
gonna have to wait.
Well, speaking of later,
how about dinner tonight?
Hmm?
Can we maybe postpone?
Aah!
You're still agonizing over
the residency deadlines?
Well, define agonizing.
You can laugh
because you've already
sent in your application.
True, and I should be
hearing something any time,
but until then, I
still got to eat.
So, dinner?
- OK.
- Yes!
And you can show me
your list of pros and cons
because I know you
have it written out.
No, not me.
Really?
Last time we had a long weekend,
you had a whole spreadsheet
and gave everyone a
personal color scheme.
OK, fine.
There may be a list.
There's the Natalie I know of.
Hey!
You stole that one.
See you later.
Hey, Doc, you got it bad.
What if she leaves, Annie?
I mean, what if she gets a great
residency across the country,
I'll never see her again.
You guys will figure
it out, whatever that is.
Incoming.
Thank you.
- Sorry, I'm late.
- Aah!
There she is.
Hey, no apologies.
You're here now and
that's what matters.
Hey, Scott told your dad about
you catching that lead today.
Scott called you?
You know Scott.
He's proud of you.
We all are.
You missed dinner.
Mom made her famous meatloaf.
Oh, sorry I missed that.
Ooh!
- I can heat some up for you.
- Oh, no.
It's fine.
I just mean, I
actually have plans
with Scott so I'm not staying.
Oh.
Has he heard about
his residency?
Oh, not yet.
But you know, in true Scott
fashion, he's not worried.
I gotta go.
I've got homework.
Uh, you should talk to her.
Is everything OK?
Yeah.
It's just... she was
looking forward to tonight.
She misses you.
I really meant
to be here sooner.
Sorry.
I know, sweetheart.
Just go talk it out.
Hey.
Hi.
Do you have some clothes
I could borrow for my date
tonight.
All I have are my scrubs.
Hmm, mm.
Oh, too blue.
That's your favorite color.
You have really great taste.
I know you're all
grown up now but to me,
it seems like you were
turning 10 just yesterday.
Ah, you always say that.
I'm almost 18.
How's Cameron.
We broke up.
What?
When?
About three months ago.
Abby, why didn't you tell me?
I don't know.
I don't want to bother you.
You're busy with
school and everything.
You can always talk to me.
Even if I don't have a
solution, I can at least
admire the problem from afar.
Talk to me.
I'm just worried that I'm
never gonna have a relationship
like you and Scott.
OK, I didn't meet Scott
until medical school so
give it a few years before you
declare yourself a spinster.
I just want what you guys have.
Do you think he'll propose?
Ooh, no, no.
Not now.
No, we still have
a lot to figure out
before we talk about marriage.
But you love him.
I really do.
Like, everything about him.
Which is crazy considering
how opposite we are.
He can't hide one
single emotion,
and he jumps in with
both feet while I'm
still like dipping my toe.
The emotion thing
gets him into trouble,
but it's also very charming.
And he's always
late, like he is now.
He really is the
yin to your yang.
Oh.
This is the one.
Ooh.
Fancy.
Mm.
Oh, you know I'm the president
of the premed club at school?
Of course.
Well on Friday, we're having
a career fair kind of thing.
I was wondering if you
could come in and talk
to some of the students?
Just answer questions about
medical school and stuff
like that?
I'd love to, Abby,
but I can't Friday.
I have rotations.
Semester is almost
over and pretty soon,
I'll have a lot of free time.
So next career
fair, I'll be there.
I promise.
It's OK.
I understand.
Mm.
Ah, smell that?
Next batch is done.
How do you know?
The timer hasn't even gone off.
Hahaha.
I don't need a timer.
The nose knows.
OK, Doctor Seuss, my nose
has no idea when I'm supposed
to take cookies out of the oven.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Don't you dare.
Did somebody say cookies?
- Hey!
- Hey.
Great to see you, pal.
Good to see you, sir.
Hi, you're late.
Mm, you sure about that?
Because I think I'm right...
-on time.
Mm, cookies are amazing, Janine.
Well, you can
eat as many as you want.
Oh, I will.
Mwah.
Hey, kiddo.
Hey, oh.
Ah, one more thing.
Mm?
You have shared this
recipe with Natalie, right?
Uh, yes.
Well, she's been
helping me since she
was a little girl, so...
I can hear you.
I think we're
gonna get outta here.
Ah.
- Bye.
- Have a good night.
- See you later.
- I love you, too.
Thank you, sir.
Have a great night, guys.
Well, I don't
understand how he does
that and baking.
Yeah, those
cookies, the death of me.
Are you even hungry
for food right now?
Ah, you know me.
I do know you.
Sorry, I'm... my mind's racing.
I had no idea that applying for
residency's could be this hard.
Maybe it's good not
to have a plan for once
and just let things happen.
Mm.
Forget about the deadline,
stress, and look inside.
We should find out right now.
Mm?
I love working with children.
I really like geriatrics, too.
And?
It just feels really
good to help people.
What about surgery?
I love that rotation but I
want more patient interaction.
See, that's what I
love about you, Natalie.
You just wanna help people
and you're so good at it, too.
I know you're worried about
the future but I'm not.
You're so smart and so
passionate and so beautiful...
- and I can't imagine
my life without you.
Oh... no...
Natalie... no.
I love you so much.
I think you love me, too.
I do, Scott.
See, that's perfect.
Oh, Scott, why'd you just...
Hold on, hold on.
Just let me do this.
Natalie Sims, will you marry me?
I can't.
I'm sorry, what?
I can't.
There's too much uncertainty...
You...
right now, we...
-can't?
Can't even begin
to think about marriage.
I... I thought we
wanted the same thing?
- We do.
- So...
I mean, I do...
I do... I don't...
I don't.
Aah!
I don't know.
What I'm...
Uh...
-so, you won't marry me?
No.
Scott, I... I love you, but I...
But you said no.
Can we just go
back to five minutes
ago before any of this
ever happened and have...
I, uh...
- a conversation or... or...
Or... uh, this is the first
time we even talked about it.
I gotta go.
Scott, wait.
We can talk about this.
I've... I gotta go.
Congratulations, you guys.
It's about time!
Do you mind if
I talk to Natalie?
Sure.
I'll leave you guys
alone for a bit.
I told her I
was thinking of prop...
Well, you know.
Don't worry, she's
the one I told, uh...
Do you mind if I, uh, talk
to you about something?
Yeah, I think we should talk.
Somewhere private?
I got a call today from
the residency in Chicago.
They wanna fly me
out to meet the team.
If I go, it will be a
three-year contract minimum.
Wow!
Scott, that's an
incredible opportunity.
Congratulations.
Chicago, that's far.
Yeah I was gonna decline
when my circumstances changed.
So... Our flight leaves tomorrow.
Scott, wait.
Well, honey, uh...
Oh, dear.
Oh, dear.
Come on.
Come on.
I just didn't
know who else to talk to, Mimi.
I'm scared to tell Mom and
Dad because they love Scott.
Well, honey, they love you, too.
I know, but...
Hey, it's going to be fine.
Talk to me.
How can I ask him to stay
when I've already told him no?
Do you want him to stay?
- I don't want him to go.
- Uh-huh.
And do you love him?
Yes!
Now, but you
don't wanna marry him?
- No.
- No.
No, I don't...
I don't know.
Things just aren't going
at the way that I planned.
Well, they never do.
That's life.
I mean, I don't even
know what I'm doing.
I feel like everything
is just falling apart.
You know, I'm facing the
biggest decision of my life
and he just goes and
proposes like that?
I mean, what was he thinking?
Well, I... uh, well, what
do you think, Natalie?
What do you want?
I don't know.
That's the problem.
I just wish that I knew how
this was supposed to go.
Ah, yeah.
Uncertainty, it's very
uncomfortable, honey.
But, honey, I... I think I know
something that might help.
I don't want any more bons.
No, not bonbons.
But you're going
to think I'm crazy.
Watch your step, honey.
Come on.
Where... here it is.
Is that yours?
Mm-hmm.
It's beautiful.
Yeah.
Before I married your grandpa,
I was so nervous I almost
didn't make it down the aisle.
You were nervous?
I would have never thought that
watching you two growing up.
Well, marrying him was the
best decision I ever made.
But there was a time when I
wasn't so sure he was the one,
or that I was ready
to be anybody's wife.
You know, I was 22 and my whole
future was in front of me,
and I just... there
was so much pressure.
Well, you said yes.
What helped you decide?
This veil.
I know it sounds silly, but when
I tried this veil on, I just...
I just had this
feeling that I could
see my whole future unfold
in front of me and I...
I liked what I saw.
And after that, I was sure.
Try it on.
Mimi, I don't see how
trying on a wedding veil
is gonna fix my
problems with Scott.
Oh, honey, I don't know,
but there's just something
about this whole veil.
It just seems to make
things more clear.
So humor me.
Come on, try it on.
You look so beautiful.
How does it feel?
I feel silly.
Tsk, Natalie, for
once, don't think.
Just feel.
I won't tell anyone.
Oh, Mimi.
Mm.
Mimi?
Mimi?
Hey.
Ooh, I love that scarf.
It reminds me of our honeymoon.
Mm.
Uh, honey...
Traffic jam!
Daddy, I thought we could
make pancakes for snack time.
Pancakes!
Pancakes!
All right, what do you
want in your pancakes?
- Chocolate chips!
- Chocolate Chips?
- Chocolate chips!
- Or blueberries?
- Yeah, strawberry.
- All right.
All right, will you take your
car and you take you car,
so Mommy and I won't...
-slip anymore.
Honey?
Hey.
Scott.
Oh, it's the weirdest dream.
We're at this house and
there are these two kids.
Something very
strange is going on.
Oh, you're right about that.
I'm calling Dr. Hammond,
getting you in right away.
Oh, I'm fine.
I'm... I'm just, um...
I'm just overwhelmed
or... or something.
Mommy, say, ah.
Oh.
Silly Mommy.
Where's Grandma Mimi?
Is Grandma Mimi coming over?
What, she's not here?
No.
She's probably at home.
Which is?
What?
Home, where is that?
Grandma Mimi moved, Mommy.
This... this...
This can't be real.
I...
- Oh.
Oh, uh...
- I'm...
Oh, oh, easy.
You hit your head
pretty hard there.
I really think we
should go to the clinic.
No, I'm just...
I'm sorry, I'm just...
I'm not feeling very well.
Hey, I understand.
You've been going at it nonstop.
Just... did you eat
anything today?
Ah...
You probably have
low blood sugar.
I just need to lie down.
Yep.
Yeah.
Your mom is coming over.
I can call her to
cancel if you want.
No, I wanna see her.
I... I need to.
Uh, power nap, I
guess what I need.
Ooh.
Uh, I'm sorry.
Is Mom having another baby?
What?
Well, what makes
you say that, goober?
Because the last
time she was like this
is when she had Dylan.
Remember, you called
it baby brain?
Oh, I don't think so.
Can I get a baby
sister this time?
No, that, um, mm-mm, there's...
That's... sorry, um...
Emma.
Everybody, be good.
Hello?
Annie?
You are not gonna believe
what I'm about to tell you,
but I had...
NURSE ANNIE: Who is this...
- and how do you
have my cell phone?
It's Natalie.
Natalie Sims.
No.
Yes.
Natalie Sims, fourth year
medical student dating Scott.
Natalie?
I haven't heard from you
in over 10 years, at least.
10 years... wh...
OK, we spoke this morning.
And what do
you mean, dating Scott?
I was at your wedding.
Is everything all right?
I don't know.
Uh, I'm really confused, Annie.
Something happened.
Look, I'm really
happy to hear from you,
but if you're having
a medical emergency,
I suggest you hang
up and dial 911.
Ah!
Hello?
OK.
Think.
I am not crazy.
What was the last thing I did?
Retrace your steps.
The veil.
The veil!
OK.
Where is this thing?
Bingo.
All righty.
Let's try this again.
Ugh!
Oh, good.
You got Mimi's veil.
Oh, my sweet girl.
What's wrong?
I'm so happy to see
you but you're not gonna
believe what is happening.
Oh, well try me.
OK, this is gonna sound crazy,
but I don't know how I got here.
I mean, one minute, this attic
was still Grandma Mimi's house
and she was insisting
that I try on this veil.
And the next thing
I know, I wake up
and I have two
kids and a husband.
Oh, my gosh.
I sound crazy.
No.
Not exactly.
Oh, so you know?
Of course I know.
Oh, time flies.
We're all feeling
sentimental right now.
One moment, you're holding
little baby in your arms,
and the next minute, they're
raising babies of their own
or getting married.
It can seem so unfair sometimes
how quickly life goes by.
But every chapter is
beautiful and just keeps
getting better and better.
I miss you.
Oh.
Oh.
I'm so sorry that
I'm not around more.
What do you mean?
I see you almost everyday.
You do?
Are you feeling OK, Natalie?
Look, uh, Scott said you...
You hit your head.
He thought it was OK but
maybe you should take it easy.
No, I just need to see Mimi.
Well, you're going to see
her at the dress fitting.
What dress fitting?
Now you're just
trying to scare me.
I don't know why you
girls think that's so funny.
One of these days, you're gonna
be saying something serious,
I'm just gonna
think it's a joke.
Come on, we're gonna be late.
We don't wanna stress out
your sister even more.
And I... I think she
likes this drop.
We might consider this for her.
I know.
I guess there's
something we could put,
um, some fruit or raspberries
or strawberries inside.
Yeah.
To the mother and
sister of the bride,
you're doing all the work.
Mm.
Ah.
Oh!
Abby!
Oh my goodness, not again.
You promised no more tears.
Oh.
I know, I'm so grown up.
It just feels a little unreal.
So did you bring it?
Did I bring what?
Grandma Mimi's veil?
We're supposed to see the
full look today, right?
Uh, I forgot.
I'm sorry.
No, no.
I've... I just had it.
I forgot it, that's all.
I... no, no, no, it's
in perfectly good
working condition.
Was that a concern?
No.
No.
Of course, I didn't...
Hey, it's fine, honey.
You're so beautiful.
And everything is
going to be just fine.
Sorry.
The stress is
starting to get to me.
But it's OK.
Mistakes happen and you've
done so much for me, Natalie.
I have?
OK, if you're
gonna make me say it,
you're the best
sister in the world?
There, you happy?
Whew!
So, do you like what you see?
So I haven't
completely lost my mind.
No, honey.
I'm telling you, it is the veil.
Sometimes, it just helps
to have a little clarity.
Why did it bring me here?
Well, you can't go back
until all is revealed.
So far, the only thing
that's been revealed to me
is two kids running
around in a house
calling me Mommy and a very
concerned and confused Scott.
And... is that
what I'm supposed to see?
I suppose.
You'll know when you know.
OK.
I have residency deadlines.
What if I get
stuck here forever?
You must trust the journey.
Hey.
Hey.
So how was your day?
Um, surreal but good.
Well, I know things have
been stressful with wedding
planning, and the
kids, and work, so
I figured we go to our
old medical school refuge.
What, is this because I fainted?
Because Scott, I'm...
I'm fine, really.
As your doctor, Doctor, I'm
prescribing you a night off.
Come on.
This place hasn't changed a bit.
You can always count on it.
Let me guess, you
ordered the BLT?
You're getting the
chicken sandwich.
Can always count on it.
Do you remember?
Our first date was here, too.
What? that was our first date?
Well, technically.
I, uh, I would really like
to study with you sometime.
I tend to learn
better in groups.
Mm.
I think I was just a
little smoother than that.
Um, I think you...
I think... no, you asked
me over a CPR dummy.
Oh, boy.
Can we please tell
the kids my version?
I'll give you a do over.
Hi, I'm Natalie.
I'm so glad that you
asked me to study.
You are incredibly good
with a stethoscope.
Oh, why, thank you.
And I want you to know the study
session is purely intellectual.
So what do you like to do
for fun these days, Scott?
Oh, there's a date
night, family movie night,
dancing in the kitchen.
Mm.
That sounds boring.
No, it's perfect.
Why?
There's no cover
charge for Club Kitchen.
And DJ Scott is amazing.
But why, really?
We get to do what we always
dreamed of in our careers.
We get to help people, have
a home filled with laughter.
I sometimes get caught
up in the day by day
but we should all be so lucky.
Do you get out?
Oh, like this?
Do you travel?
You mean, like Hawaii?
I did.
Who doesn't it.
So many questions.
Well, this is a first
date, Scotty Smooth.
Any regrets?
My only regret is not ordering
that chicken sandwich two
years ago when you claimed it.
You can still order one.
Now there'd be nothing to share.
Where's the fun in that?
Not on the first date.
Maybe, we can do
it again sometime.
What are we studying next?
It's a surprise.
Do you ever wish that you
had waited to see what
your career was gonna do first?
I always figured it was
better to follow your heart
rather than to have it
told what's possible.
Yeah, but how
did you know... like
really know that you're
making the right decision?
It sounds like you
got a lot on your mind.
I just feel like I
can't get ahead of things.
Know what to do for sure no
matter how much I put in...
You put in your spreadsheets.
I guess I don't change.
But you act like
that's a bad thing.
Without you, we'd always be
out of something at the house,
right?
And even on top of Abby's
wedding planning like a boss.
I have...
I have.
It's a nice night.
Ooh, we gotta get back.
Save your parents
from babysitting.
Impressed?
Maybe just a little.
You know, your mom warned
you about guys like me.
And I didn't listen.
Apparently not.
Computer, swing the house down!
- Oh, no, no, no...
- Oh, yes.
- No.
No...
- Oh...
- oh...
-it's gonna happen.
OK.
Here we go.
Oh!
Um, Scott?
Yes, dear?
The blood's rising to my head.
Well, that explains
your healthy glow.
Um, let's just...
Yeah, I... I think
that's enough dancing.
I don't know how to
explain this but I...
I'm not who you think I am.
The... the woman in this
picture, that's not me.
I'm not her.
Hey, I get it.
Hah, you do?
Yeah.
I mean our lives
are pretty crazy.
Yesterday, we were a couple
of kids in med school.
And now we got a mortgage,
and laundry, and endless piles
of dishes, and boom!
Just like that.
But, hey, we got this.
Yeah.
So...
Hey.
So, uh, Dylan had trouble
falling asleep again tonight.
He has a test tomorrow
and he's letting
his nerves get the best of him.
Wait, Dylan has test anxiety?
We've been over this.
He's the smartest
kid in his class.
He just gets a little nervous
every once in a while.
Well, I had the
same thing as a kid.
We need to do
something about it.
I don't know, get him
a tutor or something.
We already tried that.
Look, if we just let
it go, he'll be fine.
He'll grow out of it.
No, he won't.
Trust me.
Look, I really don't wanna
fight about this tonight, OK?
Come here.
Come here.
I missed you today.
You, too.
Can you drop the
kids off at school
on your way to work tomorrow?
Work?
Yeah.
You know, that thing
we do to afford
a nice life in the suburbs?
Right.
Work tomorrow.
Mm-hmm.
I am gonna go pick out something
to wear for work tomorrow.
Everything OK in there?
Yeah, fine.
I'm fine.
Good morning, Doctor.
Morning.
Doctor.
Dr. Rivers.
Hello.
Sorry, yes, Rachel.
What are you Still down here?
Working.
I know, but it's Tuesday.
What, we don't work on Tuesdays?
No, we do, but you're
usually out of here
by now for date night.
Date night, every
Tuesday with Scott.
Are you feeling OK?
Dr. Rivers, the
other one, mentioned
that you hit your head?
I did.
It's just... it's
just been a long day.
Sure, I get it.
Great job today by the way.
I've never seen someone make
a child laugh while sticking
a needle in their arm.
Thanks, Rachel.
Scott, honey.
Hey.
You almost home?
Your mom will be here
soon to watch the kids.
Can we reschedule?
We haven't missed a
date night in 10 years.
I just... I can't right now.
I still have so much work to do.
It's, um... It's OK.
Well, uh, I'll just see
you when you get home.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Hey.
Hey.
Did you get my text?
No, sorry, I haven't
looked at my phone.
Oh, apparently, Emma
has a project due tomorrow
she hasn't started on.
Oh.
But I rounded up some supplies
and we're gonna dish it out.
What, are you just gonna throw
something together for her?
I mean, what if she
fails her project?
Oh, she won't fail.
But maybe, she'll learn to
be more prepared next time.
How are you always
so calm about this stuff?
How was I supposed to feel?
It'll be fine.
Hey, I'm sorry about tonight.
It's fine.
All right.
I'll be upstairs if you need me.
Emma, you want Popsicle
sticks or fuzzy sticks?
Um...
Look, I think Popsicle sticks.
Where are the kids?
It's after 9:00.
You fell asleep.
Yeah.
Thank you.
So did Emma finished
her project?
It's a little
rushed, but it's done.
I guess I really
screwed up today, huh?
Well, you know, yes, you did.
Natalie, if something's
going on, talk to me.
Well, there is
something going on.
I knew it.
I'm scheduling a CT scan
first thing tomorrow.
Oh, it's not that.
I just feel like I'm
letting everybody down.
Well, then, I'd love
to agree with you,
but then, we'd both be wrong.
I know you're under a lot of
pressure, but you're not alone.
We're in this together,
we're figuring it out.
All right?
I'll take the kids to
school tomorrow morning
so you could sleep in a bit.
So you have another
busy day tomorrow?
I'm sure I do.
I know.
I don't like...
I'm not a fan of the
pecans in the cake.
I mean...
Well, I like that.
Got an easy solution.
So what do you think?
We've been here,
uh, three hours.
You might want to...
I know but I like both.
Like, I really like...
It's between these two.
Well, there's an obvious
solution if you can't decide
between one and the other.
OK.
So we'll do one
layer of red velvet
and another one
of Italian cream.
Ta-da!
- Right?
Mm-hmm.
OK.
Everything's gonna
be perfect, right?
Of course.
I just hope Brian and I can
have what you and Scott have.
Oh.
OK, this whole thing could
fall apart at any second.
What?
I'm serious.
No.
I know.
With each choice, each decision,
you just put love first
and try and hold it together.
I have it under control.
I won't let you down.
I guess you have more to reveal.
Feeling nostalgic?
I am, too.
All this wedding stuff.
Is this what you wanted?
What do you mean?
This life.
When you asked me to marry you,
is this the life you imagined?
No, it's better than I imagined.
I wouldn't want
it any other way.
Mwah!
So I talked to the school
counselor about Dylan
and she wants us to come
in tomorrow for a meeting.
OK.
Well, it is a good thing.
Maybe we'll find a solution and
now actually get some sleep.
Ah!
That would be amazing.
Well then, yeah,
wouldn't that so good.
Mommy, test tomorrow.
Daddy...
Sure this is the
life you imagined?
Of course.
We went out.
No, that was a study session.
All right.
Wait here.
One sec.
Scott...
You said you
wanted a second study session.
This is kind of our thing.
Well done, sir.
What?
It's just... this reminds
me of when you said yes
and turned my life upside down.
For the better.
I'm glad.
I got down on one knee
with a grass ring...
Scott...
-and you said...
Pass the noodles?
I love you, Natalie Rivers!
What are you doing?
I love you, Natalie Rivers.
Scott, there are
the kids over there.
Now you say it.
You say it to me.
No, there's people
walking around.
I'll keep saying it.
I love you, Natalie...
Fine!
I love you, Scott Rivers.
Now I know that's not
how you feel about me.
I'm disappointing you.
I love you, Scott Rivers!
See?
No, they agree.
This picnic's pretty perfect.
Thank you.
For you, anything.
Nervous?
No.
I am/ I can't help thinking that
maybe you were right all along.
He needs some guidance,
his testing anxiety's
isn't just gonna go away.
You were right, too.
I tried to encourage
him the other day
and he completely fall apart.
It felt awful.
All I wanna do
what's best for them
but it's so easy to... to
question every decision I
make as a parent.
We're gonna make the
wrong choice sometimes
but that doesn't undermine
the things we get right.
You're a great dad.
Yeah, but you're like super mom.
I love watching
you with the kids.
They just light up around you.
We make a pretty good team.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hi.
Hey.
Oh, I'm so sorry
to keep you waiting.
- Oh, it's OK.
- Don't worry about it.
Thank you.
One of my students
missed her bus.
Oh, dear.
Oh, no, she's OK.
I'm so glad you could
come in together.
It's wonderful when we
can all work as a team.
So, let's talk about Dylan.
Well, we know Dylan
understands the materials.
So what do we do to
ease his anxiety?
Well we try to encourage him
but it doesn't help.
It just makes it worse.
I hate seeing him
struggle like this.
So what can we do differently?
We could try moving
him to the front of the class.
Sometimes that's helpful.
That could really work and it
would eliminate distractions.
And then, we could come up
with the game plan at home
for when he has his test.
Something for him to turn
to when he begins to panic.
Excellent.
I'll send you some resources
and study techniques.
All Dylan needs to know is
that these tests are designed
to help him, not punish him.
OK?
OK, got it.
We got this.
I think you do.
You saved
that little girl's life.
But I don't know about that.
I'm serious.
I would have never
connected all those symptoms
to an allergic reaction,
but you were thinking fast.
It feels good to know that I
can really help
people here, you know,
in so many different ways.
Well, that is why you
started the practice, right?
Yeah, I guess it must be.
Well done, Dr. Rivers.
You know, that little
girl reminded me of Emma.
I just looked at her and
all I could think about was
how to make her feel better.
It's because you're a
great doctor and a great mom.
All right.
Crack 'em and throw 'em, guys.
- See that go in.
- Flying everywhere.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Part of it.
Mommy!
Hi, guys.
Hey.
There she is.
Oh, I missed you so much today.
Hi, bud.
Hey.
Ooh, hello.
Mm-mm.
How are you?
Great.
Oh, great.
Hi.
Oh, hi.
How was work today?
- It was really good.
- Yeah?
Yeah.
That's great.
We wanna hear all about it.
Yes.
We made dinner for you.
You did?
Spaghetti and mac and cheese.
You did?
Your favorite.
Oh, wow.
I can't wait.
Sure it'll tastes
as good as it looks.
Keep throwing them in there.
There you go.
- Yah!
Good job.
Oh, wow, it's flying again.
Computer, play something
soft and romantic.
Although the clouds, they
I see the moon shining bright.
Maybe the sky
La, la, la, la, la, la, la,
la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Yeah, I got that one.
Oh, sister, let's go down.
Let's go down, come on down.
Oh, sister, let's go down.
All right.
You guys ready?
Yeah.
There you go, Emma.
Lunch for you.
Lunch for you.
Let's turn around, there you go.
And your flute.
Thank you.
Now, tell Mommy what
you're going to do if you
feel anxious in school today.
Problems and
eat them for breakfast.
That's great, buddy.
All right, let's go!
So you're liking what you see?
Well, I'm completely exhausted,
and I'm a little weirded out
from eating mac and cheese
and spaghetti for dinner.
But I guess that's what
I was supposed to see.
And things with Scott
seemed really great.
Oh, I'm so glad.
But, I don't know, I'm worried
that the good moments are just
moments.
Oh, well.
Be the same thing
with the bad moments.
They're just moments.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
Mm-hmm.
So what now?
Do... do I go back?
Well, that is
really up to the veil.
The veil seems to be
calling a lot of shots lately.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Abby, hey.
No, uh, I didn't forget.
Who do you think
you're talking to?
OK, great.
See you soon.
I completely forgot to book
the hairdresser for her.
Oh, honey, don't fret.
I got a great girl.
What else?
Everything.
I mean, I'm completely in over
my head with this wedding.
Listen to me.
You are always the one with the
master plan, and I know you.
And you in any
form, you can solve
any problem with a spreadsheet
in a folder full of research.
You're right.
I mean, future me can't
be that different.
That's right.
Exactly.
Now, uh, I'll make a list of
birthdays and anniversaries
and that's gonna help you
with the passwords, right?
Yeah, and I'll dive
into the spreadsheet.
And I'll call the hairdresser.
Can you find out if
he could come over here?
Right.
And you'll work on
everything else.
Work, I...
I have to work today.
Mm-mm, you have the day off.
I arranged it two weeks ago.
Mimi, what would
I do without you?
Oh-oh.
All right.
Natalie let's see if
you were the same person
you always been.
Come on!
Oh, OK.
Abby's wedding.
Well, Natalie, a 27-page
spreadsheet, that's, um...
That's something.
Wow, this woman can
run a family practice.
Coming.
Ah, this is so much
better than having to drive
across town of a salon.
Thank you, Natalie.
Oh, you know me,
always two steps ahead.
What do you think?
It's a simple updo
but is it too simple?
Should have any
braids, or curls, or...
No, it's beautiful.
What's wrong?
You look worried.
I'm fine.
Wait, stop!
Why are you gonna put
it on over her face
just so you have to
pull it back again.
Yeah, that's how it works.
Well, it all works, right?
Mm-hmm.
That was surprisingly intense.
You have made my
dream wedding come true.
Thank you for being here.
There's nowhere
else I'd rather be.
All right.
Your turn.
Mm.
I didn't know I
could look like this.
It reminds me of
your wedding day.
I guess I never really saw
myself this way in the future...
I mean, the past...
Ah, I don't know
what I'm saying.
You never saw
yourself what way, Natalie?
As an amazing, brilliant,
beautiful woman?
That's how I've always seen you.
That's how everyone sees you.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Do you see this woman?
I mean, really see her?
Have you ever really seen her?
Oh.
According to my
27-page wedding plan,
you have to pick up
your marriage license.
Mm, I'm on it.
And I'm gonna take
the kids to the park.
Oh, well, have fun.
I will see you later.
You good?
This is the best day ever.
Even though the man, he
likes all that mushy stuff.
What I do know is when
we were in medical school,
he would stay up
really late studying
because he worked during the
day at the campus bookstore.
He saved up enough
money for three months
to take me to the mountains
during winter break.
I had never seen snow before.
No way!
I love snow.
Yeah, never in my whole life.
We were going to a
lecture, he said.
But when we landed, we
were in the mountains
and it was snowing.
We played in it
the entire weekend.
That's so Dad.
He really has always been
thoughtful and very good
at surprises.
Yeah, when he... like, when
he surprises us by picking us
up early at school
and we skip classes
just to go on an adventure.
He does that?
No.
Well, to me it sounds
like a really good dad.
Yeah.
I mean, he is a really good dad.
He the keeper, that's
what you always say.
Need some more?
You're so silly, Mommy.
I wish we could come
here tomorrow so I
don't have to take that test.
You're gonna do great, buddy.
When we get home, I'll show you
some of my marking strategies
that helped me when
I had my test, OK?
OK.
They're so pretty.
I love the ducks.
Wanna go to the playground?
Yay!
Hey, dad.
Hey, honey, where are you?
I've decided to keep
the kids for the evening.
It's been so nice to
have some time with them.
What about dinner?
Oh, shoot, it's Tuesday.
Dinner with Scott.
It's not just Tuesday.
It's Abby and Brian...
-your double date.
You've been excited
about this for weeks.
But it wasn't in my spreadsheet.
You forget?
No, of course not.
Um...
where is it again?
Same place in town
you always go to.
Right.
OK, I'm gonna drop the
kids off right now.
OK.
See you soon.
Bye.
OK, kids, it's time to
go to mom and dad... uh,
I mean grandma and grandpa's.
Oh, I'm gonna get you.
Yay!
Ready for some fun?
Have a great time.
Do you have any address?
No.
I remember that it's
on Main and Atlantic.
You should know
how to get there.
I'm fine.
I'm just a little frantic
cause I'm running late.
Um, I will pick them
up when we're done.
OK.
All right.
Drive Safe.
- I will.
Bye.
Scott.
I can't believe I
found this place.
Sorry, I'm late.
I called.
No, there's no
reception in there.
I forgot.
It wasn't in my spreadsheet.
What are you talking about?
We've been planning
this for weeks.
I'm calling Dr. Hammond.
Something's off.
You don't call Dr. Hammond.
I'm fine.
I'm just juggling
a lot right now.
You're not fine, Natalie.
I'm worried.
Hey, give me a break.
I'm trying really hard here.
Why don't we just go home?
Come back some other time
when you're up for it.
I'm up for it now.
You've been so stubborn.
I'm not being stubborn, Scott.
Just trying to keep my promises.
Sorry I'm not perfect.
No one expects
you to be perfect.
Honey, you put this
pressure on yourself.
Nobody else does.
What you said the
other day, about this
not being your life...
It's really not the time.
Look, I understand the
need for soul searching
and questioning whether or
not you're on the right path,
but I have to know.
Are you unhappy
with our marriage?
Abby and Brian are waiting.
Let's just go inside.
Come on.
You don't usually
mind when I order for you.
Just because I
order something once
doesn't necessarily mean that
I want it that way forever.
But you always order
the same thing, so...
You could have checked
with me, that's all.
Would you like the same tiramisu
you always get or would you
like something different, honey?
Uh, no dessert
for me, thank you.
OK.
Tiramisu, two spoons.
Yeah.
So, um, I suppose
we should tell you
why we wanted to get dinner.
We wanted to get your advice
on writing our own vows.
Oh.
It's probably not the best time.
Well, wedding's Saturday
so not many nights left.
Everything I write
is just so trite,
and the vows at your
wedding were so beautiful.
Don't you have any
tips you can share?
Maybe, think of the first
time you fell in love.
Vows will come.
That's good.
Yeah.
What else?
We need to find something that's
personal for the two of you.
Of course, there are
relationships and people
that you look up to, but what is
it that you find in yourselves
makes you two so good together?
Don't deny yourself.
I want us
to know each other like that.
And I think one of the
reasons we're so good
together is that
we're so curious
and endlessly fascinated
with life and each other.
It sounds like
you're well on your way to
writing some pretty
beautiful vows.
And a happy marriage.
What are you guys watching?
Our wedding video.
Emma thought it would be fun.
What's wrong with the sound?
Your cousin had it muted
till we started our vows.
Oh.
This is my favorite part.
It was the first time you've
watched it without cringing.
It's cute.
Oh, it's a good thing you
weren't aware of it that day.
Oh, you look nervous.
I was afraid
if something went wrong,
you wouldn't wanna marry me.
Oh, guess I hadn't yet figured
out what I would be missing.
Hey, buddy.
I'm sorry I've been
messing up so much lately.
I'm sorry I put so
much pressure on you
when you're already stressed.
Sometimes I just get
wrapped up in my own world.
We both do.
- I
- promise to never let fear get
in the way of my love for you.
Have I kept that vow?
Oh, I mean, there
was that one time.
Of course.
Love and fear have battled it
out a little but in the end,
love always wins.
We wouldn't be
here if it hadn't.
I'm glad I'm here.
I love our life.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Hey.
Hey.
It's fine.
I have a feeling I'll be back
to my normal self very soon.
OK.
I just don't wanna forget what
a moment like this feels like.
Maybe I can help with that.
Let's see how it ends.
I promise
that in the busyness and routine
of everyday life, I will
find the moments to remind
you how special you are to me.
Natalie?
The wedding's off.
What?
Sweetie, you're just scared.
I'm sure if you think
about it hard enough,
you can find reasons that
you still wanna marry Brian.
What?
Now, this isn't nerves.
I still wanna marry Brian.
There was a flood.
What?
Yeah, there
was a pipe that burst
and there's water everywhere.
The place is all wet,
three inches of water.
I'd... the wedding's off.
No.
There are other places.
No, we've already looked.
They're booked.
No.
Uh, churches, uh,
reception halls, hotel
conference rooms, lobbies.
I mean, come on!
Weddings, company parties,
school dances, they're
all booked.
We could have it at Louie's.
I mean, he loves us
and the food's amazing.
Brian and I love that restaurant
but does he even
take reservations?
I can call him.
I mean, his family
are friends of mine.
I think he might do it.
We would scale down
a little bit but...
Mm, a lot.
It could work.
- OK.
- Yeah?
Yeah.
OK, let's do it.
- OK.
OK.
Do it.
I'm getting married
in three days!
Yes!
Oh.
OK, I gotta go.
Go.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Hey, guys.
Hey.
Mommy, Mommy, guess what?
What?
Show her, buddy.
Dylan!
Good job.
I'm so proud of you.
Here.
Me, too, Dylan.
The stuff you told
me really helps.
So this calls for celebration.
You know what that means?
Breakfast for dinner!
Yay!
Pancakes!
Yay!
Chocolate chips!
This dress is so beautiful.
Oh, don't make me cry.
Linda just did my makeup.
No.
Girls, girls, girls.
No crying yet, please.
Hmm.
Oh.
Hey, it's almost time.
Finally, I feel like
I've been waiting forever.
Mm-hmm.
Any last minute nerves?
No.
Hmm.
You don't think Brian's having
any last minute nerves, do you?
I'm sure he's fine, honey.
Can you go check?
Mm-hmm.
I'll go.
You'll be fine.
And I have to get dressed.
Wow.
I could say the same about you.
You look beautiful.
Thank you.
Can I ask you a question?
How did you know it
could be like this?
In all those years
ago when we were
just two kids in medical school,
how did you know that it...
That we could be this way?
I didn't know.
I just hoped.
But I knew there wasn't anyone
else who wanted to try it with.
I hope I didn't screw this up.
How could you say that?
The way it looks perfect,
you did an amazing job.
Come here.
Welcome to Aunt Abby's wedding.
Natalie, I think
it might be time.
But I don't wanna go.
I know but you'll be back
sooner than you realize.
I'm not so sure.
These things aren't really bad.
What if I lose all of this
before I even have it?
Honey, Scott loves
you and you love him.
It'll be OK.
Now, listen to me.
This is very important.
When the reveal is over, your
question if it was even real,
your mind will tell you
that was all a dream,
but your heart will
know the truth.
So please, honey,
trust your heart.
OK?
Thank you, Mimi.
Ow.
I love you.
Welcome to Aunt Abby's wedding.
Mimi?
What?
Did that really happen?
Did what happen?
I... I saw...
I saw him... uh,
Scott, and I had kids.
And Abby was getting...
I told you, there's just
something about this old veil.
It makes... it helps you
imagine things that could be.
But I didn't imagine it, did I?
I... I don't know.
How do you feel?
Did... did it help
you decide anything?
I saw my life, and
I've never been more sure
of anything in my entire life.
I have to talk to Scott.
I have to get to the airport.
Ugh, I'm never gonna get there
with traffic and parking.
Honey, Abby is
coming over so she
can take you to the airport.
- OK, great!
- OK!
OK.
Hey, hey, hey.
Oh.
All right, take a deep breath.
Oh, Abby, thank God.
Hey.
I am so sorry that I
have not been there for you
like I should be.
What are you talking about?
I have done a terrible job
at being your big sister.
Oh, no, you haven't.
Yes, I have.
OK, but you're
perfect the way you are.
I don't wanna be perfect.
I just wanna enjoy every moment
of this incredible journey
and my beautiful family.
Can you take me to the airport?
Sure.
Is everything OK?
Yeah.
I just have to find Scott.
Thank you, Mimi.
Mwah.
Oh, and drive careful.
I'll tell you later.
- Oh, what's going on with...
- All right.
- Scott?
- Um...
Good...
it's kinda...
-luck!
Of a story.
Ay-ya-yay.
And then I'm freaking out
because it's the first time
in my life that I don't
have a plan to guide me,
and then he proposes.
Proposes?
Yeah, but I said no.
You said no?
Well, I was caught
off guard and terrified,
and completely unsure
of what I wanted.
But now you're sure?
What changed your mind?
I got the clarity I needed.
But it doesn't matter now.
He's going to Chicago and
it may be over for good
and I thought that
I could fix it,
but we'll never even get there
in time with all this traffic.
They're redirecting traffic.
It doesn't matter,
his plane's taking off
for like five minutes anyway.
Can you just... can
you just turn up here?
Yeah.
Scott?
Natalie.
What are you doing here?
I'm just gonna ask
you the same thing.
I missed my flight.
You know me, always late.
It's one of the
things I love about you.
I booked another one,
for tomorrow, same time.
So you're still going?
Yeah, I'm still going.
Is that what you want?
It's for the best, I think.
I just...
I don't want you
to go to Chicago.
Natalie, please don't make
this harder than it already is.
OK, I'm sorry I hurt you.
You were right.
We're better off.
Is that how you really feel?
I made a mistake.
Natalie, I get it.
I'm just not the one...
No, just... will you
just listen to me?
I love you.
I was just
overwhelmed and scared
and I wasn't thinking clearly.
But I am now and I've seen
my life and you're in it.
I want you today,
tomorrow, forever.
And if you'll have it, I want
us to have a life together.
There's gonna be a
beautiful little girl
named Emma who thinks that
her father hung the moon and...
What are you talking about?
- A little boy named
Dylan who looks up to you
like you wouldn't believe.
And we're gonna have
breakfast for dinner
and adopt a family of
ducks from this very pond.
And every night when we do
the dishes, we're gonna dance
and it's gonna be beautiful,
and chaotic, and crazy,
but that's life.
And I want it to be our
life more than anything.
I want you and I
want us, and I want
it to start today, right here.
I just don't know how we
can go from this to that.
I do.
I make a promise to
never let fear get
in the way of my love for you.
And I know I'm gonna get
scared sometimes, so are you,
but it doesn't matter
because when I close my eyes,
I can't picture my
life without you.
I just wanted you
to know how I felt.
Natalie, wait.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Let's make it happen.
Now.
Yeah.
And is this your life?
I hope so.
Let's go.
- OK.
Come on.
Hmm.
Still into pastels, I see.
What do you think
of an outdoor wedding.
You know, a garden theme?
That's a great idea.
We could have it
in the park by the pond.
Oh, that would be stunning.
There go my final
residency applications.
Oh, yes.
Now, we wait.
Where do you hope you'll land?
It doesn't matter.
I just wanna help
people and be with you.
I don't know, I have a
feeling I might want to have
my own practice one day.
Really?
That's my girl.
I think I'll be good at it.
I have no doubt.
Everyone, everyone.
I'd like to propose a toast to
my first born and to my first
son-in-law-to-be.
May you have what
Janine and I have.
I love you both.
Cheers!
Cheers!
Dad, I love you.
Whew!
I wanna go.
Yeah.
Everything OK?
Oh, it's great.
OK.
Um, you should go talk to her.
What... oh, no.
I... I wasn't, uh...
I didn't...
Oh, she's... she's
smart, and kind,
and she wants to be a doctor,
and she has a strange affinity
for knock, knock jokes.
Well, I don't wanna bother her.
I don't think she'd mind.
Hi.
I think you should
go talk to him.
Are you crazy?
Hmm.
He might very well
be the one, you know.
I don't think so.
Mm, hey, he's very nice.
Kind, smart, loves
baseball, and cooking.
And mom and dad would love him.
OK, how do you know all of this?
I met him once since
a long time from now.
Go talk to him.
Oh, hi.
Ooh, I don't know.
I just have a feeling.
Everyone, thank you so
much for being here to help
celebrate our engagement.
We are so happy to
share this moment
with our friends and family.
I am honestly the
luckiest guy alive.
I am able to share the rest of
my life with the perfect woman
and celebrate with
this amazing family.
So have a great time, don't
do anything I wouldn't
do, and again, thank you all.
Cheers!
Cheers.
Thanks for coming.
Hey, I didn't get any.
Oh, I'm sorry!
Mm.
I love this place.
We should come here more often.
- I have a feeling we will.
- Yeah?
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
Shall we?
Yes, please.
The perfect woman, huh?
That's not me.
I know.
Me, neither.
We're perfect together.
That we are.
OK, Hailey, Nurse Annie's gonna
take your pulse and vitals
and make sure everything's OK.
And pretty soon, you'll
be better than ever.
But first, there's
a really important
matter we ought to address...
Sweet or sour?
Both!
Ah!
Both it is.
Here you go.
Thank you, Dr. Natalie.
You are going
to make a great doctor
one day but a terrible dentist.
What's wrong?
Residency deadlines
are coming up soon
and I'm still undecided.
You're worried?
No.
Not really.
I mean, I have worrying
penciled in for tomorrow.
Just promise
you won't overthink it.
9 out of 10 doctors say the
10th one should mellow out.
Just follow your heart.
'Cause you're
thinking cardiology?
Whatever you decide,
we'll be lucky to have you.
Special delivery.
Bless you.
Mm.
Yeah.
Extra cream, no sugar, and
scorching hot, just like you.
Hmm, getting creative
with the compliments, huh?
Not at work.
People will gossip.
Let them talk.
I don't care who knows it.
I love you, Natalie...
Ssh.
I love you, too.
The kisses are
gonna have to wait.
Well, speaking of later,
how about dinner tonight?
Hmm?
Can we maybe postpone?
Aah!
You're still agonizing over
the residency deadlines?
Well, define agonizing.
You can laugh
because you've already
sent in your application.
True, and I should be
hearing something any time,
but until then, I
still got to eat.
So, dinner?
- OK.
- Yes!
And you can show me
your list of pros and cons
because I know you
have it written out.
No, not me.
Really?
Last time we had a long weekend,
you had a whole spreadsheet
and gave everyone a
personal color scheme.
OK, fine.
There may be a list.
There's the Natalie I know of.
Hey!
You stole that one.
See you later.
Hey, Doc, you got it bad.
What if she leaves, Annie?
I mean, what if she gets a great
residency across the country,
I'll never see her again.
You guys will figure
it out, whatever that is.
Incoming.
Thank you.
- Sorry, I'm late.
- Aah!
There she is.
Hey, no apologies.
You're here now and
that's what matters.
Hey, Scott told your dad about
you catching that lead today.
Scott called you?
You know Scott.
He's proud of you.
We all are.
You missed dinner.
Mom made her famous meatloaf.
Oh, sorry I missed that.
Ooh!
- I can heat some up for you.
- Oh, no.
It's fine.
I just mean, I
actually have plans
with Scott so I'm not staying.
Oh.
Has he heard about
his residency?
Oh, not yet.
But you know, in true Scott
fashion, he's not worried.
I gotta go.
I've got homework.
Uh, you should talk to her.
Is everything OK?
Yeah.
It's just... she was
looking forward to tonight.
She misses you.
I really meant
to be here sooner.
Sorry.
I know, sweetheart.
Just go talk it out.
Hey.
Hi.
Do you have some clothes
I could borrow for my date
tonight.
All I have are my scrubs.
Hmm, mm.
Oh, too blue.
That's your favorite color.
You have really great taste.
I know you're all
grown up now but to me,
it seems like you were
turning 10 just yesterday.
Ah, you always say that.
I'm almost 18.
How's Cameron.
We broke up.
What?
When?
About three months ago.
Abby, why didn't you tell me?
I don't know.
I don't want to bother you.
You're busy with
school and everything.
You can always talk to me.
Even if I don't have a
solution, I can at least
admire the problem from afar.
Talk to me.
I'm just worried that I'm
never gonna have a relationship
like you and Scott.
OK, I didn't meet Scott
until medical school so
give it a few years before you
declare yourself a spinster.
I just want what you guys have.
Do you think he'll propose?
Ooh, no, no.
Not now.
No, we still have
a lot to figure out
before we talk about marriage.
But you love him.
I really do.
Like, everything about him.
Which is crazy considering
how opposite we are.
He can't hide one
single emotion,
and he jumps in with
both feet while I'm
still like dipping my toe.
The emotion thing
gets him into trouble,
but it's also very charming.
And he's always
late, like he is now.
He really is the
yin to your yang.
Oh.
This is the one.
Ooh.
Fancy.
Mm.
Oh, you know I'm the president
of the premed club at school?
Of course.
Well on Friday, we're having
a career fair kind of thing.
I was wondering if you
could come in and talk
to some of the students?
Just answer questions about
medical school and stuff
like that?
I'd love to, Abby,
but I can't Friday.
I have rotations.
Semester is almost
over and pretty soon,
I'll have a lot of free time.
So next career
fair, I'll be there.
I promise.
It's OK.
I understand.
Mm.
Ah, smell that?
Next batch is done.
How do you know?
The timer hasn't even gone off.
Hahaha.
I don't need a timer.
The nose knows.
OK, Doctor Seuss, my nose
has no idea when I'm supposed
to take cookies out of the oven.
Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.
Don't you dare.
Did somebody say cookies?
- Hey!
- Hey.
Great to see you, pal.
Good to see you, sir.
Hi, you're late.
Mm, you sure about that?
Because I think I'm right...
-on time.
Mm, cookies are amazing, Janine.
Well, you can
eat as many as you want.
Oh, I will.
Mwah.
Hey, kiddo.
Hey, oh.
Ah, one more thing.
Mm?
You have shared this
recipe with Natalie, right?
Uh, yes.
Well, she's been
helping me since she
was a little girl, so...
I can hear you.
I think we're
gonna get outta here.
Ah.
- Bye.
- Have a good night.
- See you later.
- I love you, too.
Thank you, sir.
Have a great night, guys.
Well, I don't
understand how he does
that and baking.
Yeah, those
cookies, the death of me.
Are you even hungry
for food right now?
Ah, you know me.
I do know you.
Sorry, I'm... my mind's racing.
I had no idea that applying for
residency's could be this hard.
Maybe it's good not
to have a plan for once
and just let things happen.
Mm.
Forget about the deadline,
stress, and look inside.
We should find out right now.
Mm?
I love working with children.
I really like geriatrics, too.
And?
It just feels really
good to help people.
What about surgery?
I love that rotation but I
want more patient interaction.
See, that's what I
love about you, Natalie.
You just wanna help people
and you're so good at it, too.
I know you're worried about
the future but I'm not.
You're so smart and so
passionate and so beautiful...
- and I can't imagine
my life without you.
Oh... no...
Natalie... no.
I love you so much.
I think you love me, too.
I do, Scott.
See, that's perfect.
Oh, Scott, why'd you just...
Hold on, hold on.
Just let me do this.
Natalie Sims, will you marry me?
I can't.
I'm sorry, what?
I can't.
There's too much uncertainty...
You...
right now, we...
-can't?
Can't even begin
to think about marriage.
I... I thought we
wanted the same thing?
- We do.
- So...
I mean, I do...
I do... I don't...
I don't.
Aah!
I don't know.
What I'm...
Uh...
-so, you won't marry me?
No.
Scott, I... I love you, but I...
But you said no.
Can we just go
back to five minutes
ago before any of this
ever happened and have...
I, uh...
- a conversation or... or...
Or... uh, this is the first
time we even talked about it.
I gotta go.
Scott, wait.
We can talk about this.
I've... I gotta go.
Congratulations, you guys.
It's about time!
Do you mind if
I talk to Natalie?
Sure.
I'll leave you guys
alone for a bit.
I told her I
was thinking of prop...
Well, you know.
Don't worry, she's
the one I told, uh...
Do you mind if I, uh, talk
to you about something?
Yeah, I think we should talk.
Somewhere private?
I got a call today from
the residency in Chicago.
They wanna fly me
out to meet the team.
If I go, it will be a
three-year contract minimum.
Wow!
Scott, that's an
incredible opportunity.
Congratulations.
Chicago, that's far.
Yeah I was gonna decline
when my circumstances changed.
So... Our flight leaves tomorrow.
Scott, wait.
Well, honey, uh...
Oh, dear.
Oh, dear.
Come on.
Come on.
I just didn't
know who else to talk to, Mimi.
I'm scared to tell Mom and
Dad because they love Scott.
Well, honey, they love you, too.
I know, but...
Hey, it's going to be fine.
Talk to me.
How can I ask him to stay
when I've already told him no?
Do you want him to stay?
- I don't want him to go.
- Uh-huh.
And do you love him?
Yes!
Now, but you
don't wanna marry him?
- No.
- No.
No, I don't...
I don't know.
Things just aren't going
at the way that I planned.
Well, they never do.
That's life.
I mean, I don't even
know what I'm doing.
I feel like everything
is just falling apart.
You know, I'm facing the
biggest decision of my life
and he just goes and
proposes like that?
I mean, what was he thinking?
Well, I... uh, well, what
do you think, Natalie?
What do you want?
I don't know.
That's the problem.
I just wish that I knew how
this was supposed to go.
Ah, yeah.
Uncertainty, it's very
uncomfortable, honey.
But, honey, I... I think I know
something that might help.
I don't want any more bons.
No, not bonbons.
But you're going
to think I'm crazy.
Watch your step, honey.
Come on.
Where... here it is.
Is that yours?
Mm-hmm.
It's beautiful.
Yeah.
Before I married your grandpa,
I was so nervous I almost
didn't make it down the aisle.
You were nervous?
I would have never thought that
watching you two growing up.
Well, marrying him was the
best decision I ever made.
But there was a time when I
wasn't so sure he was the one,
or that I was ready
to be anybody's wife.
You know, I was 22 and my whole
future was in front of me,
and I just... there
was so much pressure.
Well, you said yes.
What helped you decide?
This veil.
I know it sounds silly, but when
I tried this veil on, I just...
I just had this
feeling that I could
see my whole future unfold
in front of me and I...
I liked what I saw.
And after that, I was sure.
Try it on.
Mimi, I don't see how
trying on a wedding veil
is gonna fix my
problems with Scott.
Oh, honey, I don't know,
but there's just something
about this whole veil.
It just seems to make
things more clear.
So humor me.
Come on, try it on.
You look so beautiful.
How does it feel?
I feel silly.
Tsk, Natalie, for
once, don't think.
Just feel.
I won't tell anyone.
Oh, Mimi.
Mm.
Mimi?
Mimi?
Hey.
Ooh, I love that scarf.
It reminds me of our honeymoon.
Mm.
Uh, honey...
Traffic jam!
Daddy, I thought we could
make pancakes for snack time.
Pancakes!
Pancakes!
All right, what do you
want in your pancakes?
- Chocolate chips!
- Chocolate Chips?
- Chocolate chips!
- Or blueberries?
- Yeah, strawberry.
- All right.
All right, will you take your
car and you take you car,
so Mommy and I won't...
-slip anymore.
Honey?
Hey.
Scott.
Oh, it's the weirdest dream.
We're at this house and
there are these two kids.
Something very
strange is going on.
Oh, you're right about that.
I'm calling Dr. Hammond,
getting you in right away.
Oh, I'm fine.
I'm... I'm just, um...
I'm just overwhelmed
or... or something.
Mommy, say, ah.
Oh.
Silly Mommy.
Where's Grandma Mimi?
Is Grandma Mimi coming over?
What, she's not here?
No.
She's probably at home.
Which is?
What?
Home, where is that?
Grandma Mimi moved, Mommy.
This... this...
This can't be real.
I...
- Oh.
Oh, uh...
- I'm...
Oh, oh, easy.
You hit your head
pretty hard there.
I really think we
should go to the clinic.
No, I'm just...
I'm sorry, I'm just...
I'm not feeling very well.
Hey, I understand.
You've been going at it nonstop.
Just... did you eat
anything today?
Ah...
You probably have
low blood sugar.
I just need to lie down.
Yep.
Yeah.
Your mom is coming over.
I can call her to
cancel if you want.
No, I wanna see her.
I... I need to.
Uh, power nap, I
guess what I need.
Ooh.
Uh, I'm sorry.
Is Mom having another baby?
What?
Well, what makes
you say that, goober?
Because the last
time she was like this
is when she had Dylan.
Remember, you called
it baby brain?
Oh, I don't think so.
Can I get a baby
sister this time?
No, that, um, mm-mm, there's...
That's... sorry, um...
Emma.
Everybody, be good.
Hello?
Annie?
You are not gonna believe
what I'm about to tell you,
but I had...
NURSE ANNIE: Who is this...
- and how do you
have my cell phone?
It's Natalie.
Natalie Sims.
No.
Yes.
Natalie Sims, fourth year
medical student dating Scott.
Natalie?
I haven't heard from you
in over 10 years, at least.
10 years... wh...
OK, we spoke this morning.
And what do
you mean, dating Scott?
I was at your wedding.
Is everything all right?
I don't know.
Uh, I'm really confused, Annie.
Something happened.
Look, I'm really
happy to hear from you,
but if you're having
a medical emergency,
I suggest you hang
up and dial 911.
Ah!
Hello?
OK.
Think.
I am not crazy.
What was the last thing I did?
Retrace your steps.
The veil.
The veil!
OK.
Where is this thing?
Bingo.
All righty.
Let's try this again.
Ugh!
Oh, good.
You got Mimi's veil.
Oh, my sweet girl.
What's wrong?
I'm so happy to see
you but you're not gonna
believe what is happening.
Oh, well try me.
OK, this is gonna sound crazy,
but I don't know how I got here.
I mean, one minute, this attic
was still Grandma Mimi's house
and she was insisting
that I try on this veil.
And the next thing
I know, I wake up
and I have two
kids and a husband.
Oh, my gosh.
I sound crazy.
No.
Not exactly.
Oh, so you know?
Of course I know.
Oh, time flies.
We're all feeling
sentimental right now.
One moment, you're holding
little baby in your arms,
and the next minute, they're
raising babies of their own
or getting married.
It can seem so unfair sometimes
how quickly life goes by.
But every chapter is
beautiful and just keeps
getting better and better.
I miss you.
Oh.
Oh.
I'm so sorry that
I'm not around more.
What do you mean?
I see you almost everyday.
You do?
Are you feeling OK, Natalie?
Look, uh, Scott said you...
You hit your head.
He thought it was OK but
maybe you should take it easy.
No, I just need to see Mimi.
Well, you're going to see
her at the dress fitting.
What dress fitting?
Now you're just
trying to scare me.
I don't know why you
girls think that's so funny.
One of these days, you're gonna
be saying something serious,
I'm just gonna
think it's a joke.
Come on, we're gonna be late.
We don't wanna stress out
your sister even more.
And I... I think she
likes this drop.
We might consider this for her.
I know.
I guess there's
something we could put,
um, some fruit or raspberries
or strawberries inside.
Yeah.
To the mother and
sister of the bride,
you're doing all the work.
Mm.
Ah.
Oh!
Abby!
Oh my goodness, not again.
You promised no more tears.
Oh.
I know, I'm so grown up.
It just feels a little unreal.
So did you bring it?
Did I bring what?
Grandma Mimi's veil?
We're supposed to see the
full look today, right?
Uh, I forgot.
I'm sorry.
No, no.
I've... I just had it.
I forgot it, that's all.
I... no, no, no, it's
in perfectly good
working condition.
Was that a concern?
No.
No.
Of course, I didn't...
Hey, it's fine, honey.
You're so beautiful.
And everything is
going to be just fine.
Sorry.
The stress is
starting to get to me.
But it's OK.
Mistakes happen and you've
done so much for me, Natalie.
I have?
OK, if you're
gonna make me say it,
you're the best
sister in the world?
There, you happy?
Whew!
So, do you like what you see?
So I haven't
completely lost my mind.
No, honey.
I'm telling you, it is the veil.
Sometimes, it just helps
to have a little clarity.
Why did it bring me here?
Well, you can't go back
until all is revealed.
So far, the only thing
that's been revealed to me
is two kids running
around in a house
calling me Mommy and a very
concerned and confused Scott.
And... is that
what I'm supposed to see?
I suppose.
You'll know when you know.
OK.
I have residency deadlines.
What if I get
stuck here forever?
You must trust the journey.
Hey.
Hey.
So how was your day?
Um, surreal but good.
Well, I know things have
been stressful with wedding
planning, and the
kids, and work, so
I figured we go to our
old medical school refuge.
What, is this because I fainted?
Because Scott, I'm...
I'm fine, really.
As your doctor, Doctor, I'm
prescribing you a night off.
Come on.
This place hasn't changed a bit.
You can always count on it.
Let me guess, you
ordered the BLT?
You're getting the
chicken sandwich.
Can always count on it.
Do you remember?
Our first date was here, too.
What? that was our first date?
Well, technically.
I, uh, I would really like
to study with you sometime.
I tend to learn
better in groups.
Mm.
I think I was just a
little smoother than that.
Um, I think you...
I think... no, you asked
me over a CPR dummy.
Oh, boy.
Can we please tell
the kids my version?
I'll give you a do over.
Hi, I'm Natalie.
I'm so glad that you
asked me to study.
You are incredibly good
with a stethoscope.
Oh, why, thank you.
And I want you to know the study
session is purely intellectual.
So what do you like to do
for fun these days, Scott?
Oh, there's a date
night, family movie night,
dancing in the kitchen.
Mm.
That sounds boring.
No, it's perfect.
Why?
There's no cover
charge for Club Kitchen.
And DJ Scott is amazing.
But why, really?
We get to do what we always
dreamed of in our careers.
We get to help people, have
a home filled with laughter.
I sometimes get caught
up in the day by day
but we should all be so lucky.
Do you get out?
Oh, like this?
Do you travel?
You mean, like Hawaii?
I did.
Who doesn't it.
So many questions.
Well, this is a first
date, Scotty Smooth.
Any regrets?
My only regret is not ordering
that chicken sandwich two
years ago when you claimed it.
You can still order one.
Now there'd be nothing to share.
Where's the fun in that?
Not on the first date.
Maybe, we can do
it again sometime.
What are we studying next?
It's a surprise.
Do you ever wish that you
had waited to see what
your career was gonna do first?
I always figured it was
better to follow your heart
rather than to have it
told what's possible.
Yeah, but how
did you know... like
really know that you're
making the right decision?
It sounds like you
got a lot on your mind.
I just feel like I
can't get ahead of things.
Know what to do for sure no
matter how much I put in...
You put in your spreadsheets.
I guess I don't change.
But you act like
that's a bad thing.
Without you, we'd always be
out of something at the house,
right?
And even on top of Abby's
wedding planning like a boss.
I have...
I have.
It's a nice night.
Ooh, we gotta get back.
Save your parents
from babysitting.
Impressed?
Maybe just a little.
You know, your mom warned
you about guys like me.
And I didn't listen.
Apparently not.
Computer, swing the house down!
- Oh, no, no, no...
- Oh, yes.
- No.
No...
- Oh...
- oh...
-it's gonna happen.
OK.
Here we go.
Oh!
Um, Scott?
Yes, dear?
The blood's rising to my head.
Well, that explains
your healthy glow.
Um, let's just...
Yeah, I... I think
that's enough dancing.
I don't know how to
explain this but I...
I'm not who you think I am.
The... the woman in this
picture, that's not me.
I'm not her.
Hey, I get it.
Hah, you do?
Yeah.
I mean our lives
are pretty crazy.
Yesterday, we were a couple
of kids in med school.
And now we got a mortgage,
and laundry, and endless piles
of dishes, and boom!
Just like that.
But, hey, we got this.
Yeah.
So...
Hey.
So, uh, Dylan had trouble
falling asleep again tonight.
He has a test tomorrow
and he's letting
his nerves get the best of him.
Wait, Dylan has test anxiety?
We've been over this.
He's the smartest
kid in his class.
He just gets a little nervous
every once in a while.
Well, I had the
same thing as a kid.
We need to do
something about it.
I don't know, get him
a tutor or something.
We already tried that.
Look, if we just let
it go, he'll be fine.
He'll grow out of it.
No, he won't.
Trust me.
Look, I really don't wanna
fight about this tonight, OK?
Come here.
Come here.
I missed you today.
You, too.
Can you drop the
kids off at school
on your way to work tomorrow?
Work?
Yeah.
You know, that thing
we do to afford
a nice life in the suburbs?
Right.
Work tomorrow.
Mm-hmm.
I am gonna go pick out something
to wear for work tomorrow.
Everything OK in there?
Yeah, fine.
I'm fine.
Good morning, Doctor.
Morning.
Doctor.
Dr. Rivers.
Hello.
Sorry, yes, Rachel.
What are you Still down here?
Working.
I know, but it's Tuesday.
What, we don't work on Tuesdays?
No, we do, but you're
usually out of here
by now for date night.
Date night, every
Tuesday with Scott.
Are you feeling OK?
Dr. Rivers, the
other one, mentioned
that you hit your head?
I did.
It's just... it's
just been a long day.
Sure, I get it.
Great job today by the way.
I've never seen someone make
a child laugh while sticking
a needle in their arm.
Thanks, Rachel.
Scott, honey.
Hey.
You almost home?
Your mom will be here
soon to watch the kids.
Can we reschedule?
We haven't missed a
date night in 10 years.
I just... I can't right now.
I still have so much work to do.
It's, um... It's OK.
Well, uh, I'll just see
you when you get home.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Hey.
Hey.
Did you get my text?
No, sorry, I haven't
looked at my phone.
Oh, apparently, Emma
has a project due tomorrow
she hasn't started on.
Oh.
But I rounded up some supplies
and we're gonna dish it out.
What, are you just gonna throw
something together for her?
I mean, what if she
fails her project?
Oh, she won't fail.
But maybe, she'll learn to
be more prepared next time.
How are you always
so calm about this stuff?
How was I supposed to feel?
It'll be fine.
Hey, I'm sorry about tonight.
It's fine.
All right.
I'll be upstairs if you need me.
Emma, you want Popsicle
sticks or fuzzy sticks?
Um...
Look, I think Popsicle sticks.
Where are the kids?
It's after 9:00.
You fell asleep.
Yeah.
Thank you.
So did Emma finished
her project?
It's a little
rushed, but it's done.
I guess I really
screwed up today, huh?
Well, you know, yes, you did.
Natalie, if something's
going on, talk to me.
Well, there is
something going on.
I knew it.
I'm scheduling a CT scan
first thing tomorrow.
Oh, it's not that.
I just feel like I'm
letting everybody down.
Well, then, I'd love
to agree with you,
but then, we'd both be wrong.
I know you're under a lot of
pressure, but you're not alone.
We're in this together,
we're figuring it out.
All right?
I'll take the kids to
school tomorrow morning
so you could sleep in a bit.
So you have another
busy day tomorrow?
I'm sure I do.
I know.
I don't like...
I'm not a fan of the
pecans in the cake.
I mean...
Well, I like that.
Got an easy solution.
So what do you think?
We've been here,
uh, three hours.
You might want to...
I know but I like both.
Like, I really like...
It's between these two.
Well, there's an obvious
solution if you can't decide
between one and the other.
OK.
So we'll do one
layer of red velvet
and another one
of Italian cream.
Ta-da!
- Right?
Mm-hmm.
OK.
Everything's gonna
be perfect, right?
Of course.
I just hope Brian and I can
have what you and Scott have.
Oh.
OK, this whole thing could
fall apart at any second.
What?
I'm serious.
No.
I know.
With each choice, each decision,
you just put love first
and try and hold it together.
I have it under control.
I won't let you down.
I guess you have more to reveal.
Feeling nostalgic?
I am, too.
All this wedding stuff.
Is this what you wanted?
What do you mean?
This life.
When you asked me to marry you,
is this the life you imagined?
No, it's better than I imagined.
I wouldn't want
it any other way.
Mwah!
So I talked to the school
counselor about Dylan
and she wants us to come
in tomorrow for a meeting.
OK.
Well, it is a good thing.
Maybe we'll find a solution and
now actually get some sleep.
Ah!
That would be amazing.
Well then, yeah,
wouldn't that so good.
Mommy, test tomorrow.
Daddy...
Sure this is the
life you imagined?
Of course.
We went out.
No, that was a study session.
All right.
Wait here.
One sec.
Scott...
You said you
wanted a second study session.
This is kind of our thing.
Well done, sir.
What?
It's just... this reminds
me of when you said yes
and turned my life upside down.
For the better.
I'm glad.
I got down on one knee
with a grass ring...
Scott...
-and you said...
Pass the noodles?
I love you, Natalie Rivers!
What are you doing?
I love you, Natalie Rivers.
Scott, there are
the kids over there.
Now you say it.
You say it to me.
No, there's people
walking around.
I'll keep saying it.
I love you, Natalie...
Fine!
I love you, Scott Rivers.
Now I know that's not
how you feel about me.
I'm disappointing you.
I love you, Scott Rivers!
See?
No, they agree.
This picnic's pretty perfect.
Thank you.
For you, anything.
Nervous?
No.
I am/ I can't help thinking that
maybe you were right all along.
He needs some guidance,
his testing anxiety's
isn't just gonna go away.
You were right, too.
I tried to encourage
him the other day
and he completely fall apart.
It felt awful.
All I wanna do
what's best for them
but it's so easy to... to
question every decision I
make as a parent.
We're gonna make the
wrong choice sometimes
but that doesn't undermine
the things we get right.
You're a great dad.
Yeah, but you're like super mom.
I love watching
you with the kids.
They just light up around you.
We make a pretty good team.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hi.
Hey.
Oh, I'm so sorry
to keep you waiting.
- Oh, it's OK.
- Don't worry about it.
Thank you.
One of my students
missed her bus.
Oh, dear.
Oh, no, she's OK.
I'm so glad you could
come in together.
It's wonderful when we
can all work as a team.
So, let's talk about Dylan.
Well, we know Dylan
understands the materials.
So what do we do to
ease his anxiety?
Well we try to encourage him
but it doesn't help.
It just makes it worse.
I hate seeing him
struggle like this.
So what can we do differently?
We could try moving
him to the front of the class.
Sometimes that's helpful.
That could really work and it
would eliminate distractions.
And then, we could come up
with the game plan at home
for when he has his test.
Something for him to turn
to when he begins to panic.
Excellent.
I'll send you some resources
and study techniques.
All Dylan needs to know is
that these tests are designed
to help him, not punish him.
OK?
OK, got it.
We got this.
I think you do.
You saved
that little girl's life.
But I don't know about that.
I'm serious.
I would have never
connected all those symptoms
to an allergic reaction,
but you were thinking fast.
It feels good to know that I
can really help
people here, you know,
in so many different ways.
Well, that is why you
started the practice, right?
Yeah, I guess it must be.
Well done, Dr. Rivers.
You know, that little
girl reminded me of Emma.
I just looked at her and
all I could think about was
how to make her feel better.
It's because you're a
great doctor and a great mom.
All right.
Crack 'em and throw 'em, guys.
- See that go in.
- Flying everywhere.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Part of it.
Mommy!
Hi, guys.
Hey.
There she is.
Oh, I missed you so much today.
Hi, bud.
Hey.
Ooh, hello.
Mm-mm.
How are you?
Great.
Oh, great.
Hi.
Oh, hi.
How was work today?
- It was really good.
- Yeah?
Yeah.
That's great.
We wanna hear all about it.
Yes.
We made dinner for you.
You did?
Spaghetti and mac and cheese.
You did?
Your favorite.
Oh, wow.
I can't wait.
Sure it'll tastes
as good as it looks.
Keep throwing them in there.
There you go.
- Yah!
Good job.
Oh, wow, it's flying again.
Computer, play something
soft and romantic.
Although the clouds, they
I see the moon shining bright.
Maybe the sky
La, la, la, la, la, la, la,
la, la, la, la, la, la, la.
Yeah, I got that one.
Oh, sister, let's go down.
Let's go down, come on down.
Oh, sister, let's go down.
All right.
You guys ready?
Yeah.
There you go, Emma.
Lunch for you.
Lunch for you.
Let's turn around, there you go.
And your flute.
Thank you.
Now, tell Mommy what
you're going to do if you
feel anxious in school today.
Problems and
eat them for breakfast.
That's great, buddy.
All right, let's go!
So you're liking what you see?
Well, I'm completely exhausted,
and I'm a little weirded out
from eating mac and cheese
and spaghetti for dinner.
But I guess that's what
I was supposed to see.
And things with Scott
seemed really great.
Oh, I'm so glad.
But, I don't know, I'm worried
that the good moments are just
moments.
Oh, well.
Be the same thing
with the bad moments.
They're just moments.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
Mm-hmm.
So what now?
Do... do I go back?
Well, that is
really up to the veil.
The veil seems to be
calling a lot of shots lately.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Abby, hey.
No, uh, I didn't forget.
Who do you think
you're talking to?
OK, great.
See you soon.
I completely forgot to book
the hairdresser for her.
Oh, honey, don't fret.
I got a great girl.
What else?
Everything.
I mean, I'm completely in over
my head with this wedding.
Listen to me.
You are always the one with the
master plan, and I know you.
And you in any
form, you can solve
any problem with a spreadsheet
in a folder full of research.
You're right.
I mean, future me can't
be that different.
That's right.
Exactly.
Now, uh, I'll make a list of
birthdays and anniversaries
and that's gonna help you
with the passwords, right?
Yeah, and I'll dive
into the spreadsheet.
And I'll call the hairdresser.
Can you find out if
he could come over here?
Right.
And you'll work on
everything else.
Work, I...
I have to work today.
Mm-mm, you have the day off.
I arranged it two weeks ago.
Mimi, what would
I do without you?
Oh-oh.
All right.
Natalie let's see if
you were the same person
you always been.
Come on!
Oh, OK.
Abby's wedding.
Well, Natalie, a 27-page
spreadsheet, that's, um...
That's something.
Wow, this woman can
run a family practice.
Coming.
Ah, this is so much
better than having to drive
across town of a salon.
Thank you, Natalie.
Oh, you know me,
always two steps ahead.
What do you think?
It's a simple updo
but is it too simple?
Should have any
braids, or curls, or...
No, it's beautiful.
What's wrong?
You look worried.
I'm fine.
Wait, stop!
Why are you gonna put
it on over her face
just so you have to
pull it back again.
Yeah, that's how it works.
Well, it all works, right?
Mm-hmm.
That was surprisingly intense.
You have made my
dream wedding come true.
Thank you for being here.
There's nowhere
else I'd rather be.
All right.
Your turn.
Mm.
I didn't know I
could look like this.
It reminds me of
your wedding day.
I guess I never really saw
myself this way in the future...
I mean, the past...
Ah, I don't know
what I'm saying.
You never saw
yourself what way, Natalie?
As an amazing, brilliant,
beautiful woman?
That's how I've always seen you.
That's how everyone sees you.
I don't know what
you're talking about.
Do you see this woman?
I mean, really see her?
Have you ever really seen her?
Oh.
According to my
27-page wedding plan,
you have to pick up
your marriage license.
Mm, I'm on it.
And I'm gonna take
the kids to the park.
Oh, well, have fun.
I will see you later.
You good?
This is the best day ever.
Even though the man, he
likes all that mushy stuff.
What I do know is when
we were in medical school,
he would stay up
really late studying
because he worked during the
day at the campus bookstore.
He saved up enough
money for three months
to take me to the mountains
during winter break.
I had never seen snow before.
No way!
I love snow.
Yeah, never in my whole life.
We were going to a
lecture, he said.
But when we landed, we
were in the mountains
and it was snowing.
We played in it
the entire weekend.
That's so Dad.
He really has always been
thoughtful and very good
at surprises.
Yeah, when he... like, when
he surprises us by picking us
up early at school
and we skip classes
just to go on an adventure.
He does that?
No.
Well, to me it sounds
like a really good dad.
Yeah.
I mean, he is a really good dad.
He the keeper, that's
what you always say.
Need some more?
You're so silly, Mommy.
I wish we could come
here tomorrow so I
don't have to take that test.
You're gonna do great, buddy.
When we get home, I'll show you
some of my marking strategies
that helped me when
I had my test, OK?
OK.
They're so pretty.
I love the ducks.
Wanna go to the playground?
Yay!
Hey, dad.
Hey, honey, where are you?
I've decided to keep
the kids for the evening.
It's been so nice to
have some time with them.
What about dinner?
Oh, shoot, it's Tuesday.
Dinner with Scott.
It's not just Tuesday.
It's Abby and Brian...
-your double date.
You've been excited
about this for weeks.
But it wasn't in my spreadsheet.
You forget?
No, of course not.
Um...
where is it again?
Same place in town
you always go to.
Right.
OK, I'm gonna drop the
kids off right now.
OK.
See you soon.
Bye.
OK, kids, it's time to
go to mom and dad... uh,
I mean grandma and grandpa's.
Oh, I'm gonna get you.
Yay!
Ready for some fun?
Have a great time.
Do you have any address?
No.
I remember that it's
on Main and Atlantic.
You should know
how to get there.
I'm fine.
I'm just a little frantic
cause I'm running late.
Um, I will pick them
up when we're done.
OK.
All right.
Drive Safe.
- I will.
Bye.
Scott.
I can't believe I
found this place.
Sorry, I'm late.
I called.
No, there's no
reception in there.
I forgot.
It wasn't in my spreadsheet.
What are you talking about?
We've been planning
this for weeks.
I'm calling Dr. Hammond.
Something's off.
You don't call Dr. Hammond.
I'm fine.
I'm just juggling
a lot right now.
You're not fine, Natalie.
I'm worried.
Hey, give me a break.
I'm trying really hard here.
Why don't we just go home?
Come back some other time
when you're up for it.
I'm up for it now.
You've been so stubborn.
I'm not being stubborn, Scott.
Just trying to keep my promises.
Sorry I'm not perfect.
No one expects
you to be perfect.
Honey, you put this
pressure on yourself.
Nobody else does.
What you said the
other day, about this
not being your life...
It's really not the time.
Look, I understand the
need for soul searching
and questioning whether or
not you're on the right path,
but I have to know.
Are you unhappy
with our marriage?
Abby and Brian are waiting.
Let's just go inside.
Come on.
You don't usually
mind when I order for you.
Just because I
order something once
doesn't necessarily mean that
I want it that way forever.
But you always order
the same thing, so...
You could have checked
with me, that's all.
Would you like the same tiramisu
you always get or would you
like something different, honey?
Uh, no dessert
for me, thank you.
OK.
Tiramisu, two spoons.
Yeah.
So, um, I suppose
we should tell you
why we wanted to get dinner.
We wanted to get your advice
on writing our own vows.
Oh.
It's probably not the best time.
Well, wedding's Saturday
so not many nights left.
Everything I write
is just so trite,
and the vows at your
wedding were so beautiful.
Don't you have any
tips you can share?
Maybe, think of the first
time you fell in love.
Vows will come.
That's good.
Yeah.
What else?
We need to find something that's
personal for the two of you.
Of course, there are
relationships and people
that you look up to, but what is
it that you find in yourselves
makes you two so good together?
Don't deny yourself.
I want us
to know each other like that.
And I think one of the
reasons we're so good
together is that
we're so curious
and endlessly fascinated
with life and each other.
It sounds like
you're well on your way to
writing some pretty
beautiful vows.
And a happy marriage.
What are you guys watching?
Our wedding video.
Emma thought it would be fun.
What's wrong with the sound?
Your cousin had it muted
till we started our vows.
Oh.
This is my favorite part.
It was the first time you've
watched it without cringing.
It's cute.
Oh, it's a good thing you
weren't aware of it that day.
Oh, you look nervous.
I was afraid
if something went wrong,
you wouldn't wanna marry me.
Oh, guess I hadn't yet figured
out what I would be missing.
Hey, buddy.
I'm sorry I've been
messing up so much lately.
I'm sorry I put so
much pressure on you
when you're already stressed.
Sometimes I just get
wrapped up in my own world.
We both do.
- I
- promise to never let fear get
in the way of my love for you.
Have I kept that vow?
Oh, I mean, there
was that one time.
Of course.
Love and fear have battled it
out a little but in the end,
love always wins.
We wouldn't be
here if it hadn't.
I'm glad I'm here.
I love our life.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Hey.
Hey.
It's fine.
I have a feeling I'll be back
to my normal self very soon.
OK.
I just don't wanna forget what
a moment like this feels like.
Maybe I can help with that.
Let's see how it ends.
I promise
that in the busyness and routine
of everyday life, I will
find the moments to remind
you how special you are to me.
Natalie?
The wedding's off.
What?
Sweetie, you're just scared.
I'm sure if you think
about it hard enough,
you can find reasons that
you still wanna marry Brian.
What?
Now, this isn't nerves.
I still wanna marry Brian.
There was a flood.
What?
Yeah, there
was a pipe that burst
and there's water everywhere.
The place is all wet,
three inches of water.
I'd... the wedding's off.
No.
There are other places.
No, we've already looked.
They're booked.
No.
Uh, churches, uh,
reception halls, hotel
conference rooms, lobbies.
I mean, come on!
Weddings, company parties,
school dances, they're
all booked.
We could have it at Louie's.
I mean, he loves us
and the food's amazing.
Brian and I love that restaurant
but does he even
take reservations?
I can call him.
I mean, his family
are friends of mine.
I think he might do it.
We would scale down
a little bit but...
Mm, a lot.
It could work.
- OK.
- Yeah?
Yeah.
OK, let's do it.
- OK.
OK.
Do it.
I'm getting married
in three days!
Yes!
Oh.
OK, I gotta go.
Go.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Hey, guys.
Hey.
Mommy, Mommy, guess what?
What?
Show her, buddy.
Dylan!
Good job.
I'm so proud of you.
Here.
Me, too, Dylan.
The stuff you told
me really helps.
So this calls for celebration.
You know what that means?
Breakfast for dinner!
Yay!
Pancakes!
Yay!
Chocolate chips!
This dress is so beautiful.
Oh, don't make me cry.
Linda just did my makeup.
No.
Girls, girls, girls.
No crying yet, please.
Hmm.
Oh.
Hey, it's almost time.
Finally, I feel like
I've been waiting forever.
Mm-hmm.
Any last minute nerves?
No.
Hmm.
You don't think Brian's having
any last minute nerves, do you?
I'm sure he's fine, honey.
Can you go check?
Mm-hmm.
I'll go.
You'll be fine.
And I have to get dressed.
Wow.
I could say the same about you.
You look beautiful.
Thank you.
Can I ask you a question?
How did you know it
could be like this?
In all those years
ago when we were
just two kids in medical school,
how did you know that it...
That we could be this way?
I didn't know.
I just hoped.
But I knew there wasn't anyone
else who wanted to try it with.
I hope I didn't screw this up.
How could you say that?
The way it looks perfect,
you did an amazing job.
Come here.
Welcome to Aunt Abby's wedding.
Natalie, I think
it might be time.
But I don't wanna go.
I know but you'll be back
sooner than you realize.
I'm not so sure.
These things aren't really bad.
What if I lose all of this
before I even have it?
Honey, Scott loves
you and you love him.
It'll be OK.
Now, listen to me.
This is very important.
When the reveal is over, your
question if it was even real,
your mind will tell you
that was all a dream,
but your heart will
know the truth.
So please, honey,
trust your heart.
OK?
Thank you, Mimi.
Ow.
I love you.
Welcome to Aunt Abby's wedding.
Mimi?
What?
Did that really happen?
Did what happen?
I... I saw...
I saw him... uh,
Scott, and I had kids.
And Abby was getting...
I told you, there's just
something about this old veil.
It makes... it helps you
imagine things that could be.
But I didn't imagine it, did I?
I... I don't know.
How do you feel?
Did... did it help
you decide anything?
I saw my life, and
I've never been more sure
of anything in my entire life.
I have to talk to Scott.
I have to get to the airport.
Ugh, I'm never gonna get there
with traffic and parking.
Honey, Abby is
coming over so she
can take you to the airport.
- OK, great!
- OK!
OK.
Hey, hey, hey.
Oh.
All right, take a deep breath.
Oh, Abby, thank God.
Hey.
I am so sorry that I
have not been there for you
like I should be.
What are you talking about?
I have done a terrible job
at being your big sister.
Oh, no, you haven't.
Yes, I have.
OK, but you're
perfect the way you are.
I don't wanna be perfect.
I just wanna enjoy every moment
of this incredible journey
and my beautiful family.
Can you take me to the airport?
Sure.
Is everything OK?
Yeah.
I just have to find Scott.
Thank you, Mimi.
Mwah.
Oh, and drive careful.
I'll tell you later.
- Oh, what's going on with...
- All right.
- Scott?
- Um...
Good...
it's kinda...
-luck!
Of a story.
Ay-ya-yay.
And then I'm freaking out
because it's the first time
in my life that I don't
have a plan to guide me,
and then he proposes.
Proposes?
Yeah, but I said no.
You said no?
Well, I was caught
off guard and terrified,
and completely unsure
of what I wanted.
But now you're sure?
What changed your mind?
I got the clarity I needed.
But it doesn't matter now.
He's going to Chicago and
it may be over for good
and I thought that
I could fix it,
but we'll never even get there
in time with all this traffic.
They're redirecting traffic.
It doesn't matter,
his plane's taking off
for like five minutes anyway.
Can you just... can
you just turn up here?
Yeah.
Scott?
Natalie.
What are you doing here?
I'm just gonna ask
you the same thing.
I missed my flight.
You know me, always late.
It's one of the
things I love about you.
I booked another one,
for tomorrow, same time.
So you're still going?
Yeah, I'm still going.
Is that what you want?
It's for the best, I think.
I just...
I don't want you
to go to Chicago.
Natalie, please don't make
this harder than it already is.
OK, I'm sorry I hurt you.
You were right.
We're better off.
Is that how you really feel?
I made a mistake.
Natalie, I get it.
I'm just not the one...
No, just... will you
just listen to me?
I love you.
I was just
overwhelmed and scared
and I wasn't thinking clearly.
But I am now and I've seen
my life and you're in it.
I want you today,
tomorrow, forever.
And if you'll have it, I want
us to have a life together.
There's gonna be a
beautiful little girl
named Emma who thinks that
her father hung the moon and...
What are you talking about?
- A little boy named
Dylan who looks up to you
like you wouldn't believe.
And we're gonna have
breakfast for dinner
and adopt a family of
ducks from this very pond.
And every night when we do
the dishes, we're gonna dance
and it's gonna be beautiful,
and chaotic, and crazy,
but that's life.
And I want it to be our
life more than anything.
I want you and I
want us, and I want
it to start today, right here.
I just don't know how we
can go from this to that.
I do.
I make a promise to
never let fear get
in the way of my love for you.
And I know I'm gonna get
scared sometimes, so are you,
but it doesn't matter
because when I close my eyes,
I can't picture my
life without you.
I just wanted you
to know how I felt.
Natalie, wait.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Let's make it happen.
Now.
Yeah.
And is this your life?
I hope so.
Let's go.
- OK.
Come on.
Hmm.
Still into pastels, I see.
What do you think
of an outdoor wedding.
You know, a garden theme?
That's a great idea.
We could have it
in the park by the pond.
Oh, that would be stunning.
There go my final
residency applications.
Oh, yes.
Now, we wait.
Where do you hope you'll land?
It doesn't matter.
I just wanna help
people and be with you.
I don't know, I have a
feeling I might want to have
my own practice one day.
Really?
That's my girl.
I think I'll be good at it.
I have no doubt.
Everyone, everyone.
I'd like to propose a toast to
my first born and to my first
son-in-law-to-be.
May you have what
Janine and I have.
I love you both.
Cheers!
Cheers!
Dad, I love you.
Whew!
I wanna go.
Yeah.
Everything OK?
Oh, it's great.
OK.
Um, you should go talk to her.
What... oh, no.
I... I wasn't, uh...
I didn't...
Oh, she's... she's
smart, and kind,
and she wants to be a doctor,
and she has a strange affinity
for knock, knock jokes.
Well, I don't wanna bother her.
I don't think she'd mind.
Hi.
I think you should
go talk to him.
Are you crazy?
Hmm.
He might very well
be the one, you know.
I don't think so.
Mm, hey, he's very nice.
Kind, smart, loves
baseball, and cooking.
And mom and dad would love him.
OK, how do you know all of this?
I met him once since
a long time from now.
Go talk to him.
Oh, hi.
Ooh, I don't know.
I just have a feeling.
Everyone, thank you so
much for being here to help
celebrate our engagement.
We are so happy to
share this moment
with our friends and family.
I am honestly the
luckiest guy alive.
I am able to share the rest of
my life with the perfect woman
and celebrate with
this amazing family.
So have a great time, don't
do anything I wouldn't
do, and again, thank you all.
Cheers!
Cheers.
Thanks for coming.
Hey, I didn't get any.
Oh, I'm sorry!
Mm.
I love this place.
We should come here more often.
- I have a feeling we will.
- Yeah?
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
Shall we?
Yes, please.
The perfect woman, huh?
That's not me.
I know.
Me, neither.
We're perfect together.
That we are.
