Georgie and Mandy's First Marriage (2024) s01e21 Episode Script

1
Sunrise today will be at 6:39,
which is only an hour away,
so all you ladies out there
doing the walk of shame,
good for you, but ticktock.
Jim, wake up.
- Why?
- Amanda's on TV.
Hey, cool. There she is.
Should we get CeeCee out here?
Mm. You do not want
to wake a sleeping baby.
Mom woke Dad up.
It's the 5:30 weather report.
More people see her working
at the diner.
This is just the first step.
Next thing you know,
she'll be a lady Al Roker.
So Gal Roker?
When you're more awake,
you're gonna laugh and laugh.
Shush. We're missing it.
It'll be blue skies all day.
I'm Mandy McAllister
filling in for Cassidy Rains,
which is totally her real name.
And we're clear.
- Hey, nice job.
- MANDY: Oh, thank you.
And thanks again
for letting me fill in.
Oh, you're very welcome.
Uh, how-how would you feel
about making it permanent?
Seriously?
Did something happen to Cassidy?
Actually, I don't care. Yes.
[laughs]
Uh, she took a job in Fort Worth,
so we have an opening.
That's amazing. Thank you.
Good. I, uh I wasn't
sure how you'd feel
about us working together again.
Oh. Uh,
- San Antonio was so long ago.
- Yeah.
And I'm married now,
you're engaged. It's fine.
- And your husband's cool with it?
- Totally.
Because I don't want to make
anything weird for you.
No, n-nothing's weird.
I mean, he's cool, I'm cool,
everything's cool.
- Okay. Great.
- Great.
I just have to tell him.
♪
Hey, there's a TV star
in my bedroom.
Aw. You watched?
Well, we all did.
You were awesome.
Oh, that's very sweet.
So, listen, I have some news.
- What's up?
- Um
They offered me
a full-time position.
That's amazing.
Yeah, it's pretty exciting.
Well, you tell your folks yet?
No, I wanted to make sure
you were okay with it first.
Why wouldn't I be?
No reason I can think of.
- I'm so proud of you.
- Oh.
[laughs]
Me, too!
♪
[coos]
Oh, here. Let me
help you with those.
Thanks.
Guess who I saw at
the grocery store.
Susan Marcus.
She saw you on TV this morning.
Oh, how's she doing?
Who cares? She saw you on TV.
After all those years
having to hear
about her son, the podiatrist.
Yeah, well, we showed her.
Ah. I am so proud of you.
A full-time position.
Thanks, Mom.
Why don't you seem more excited?
[scoffs] I'm excited.
Look at my face. Excited.
Amanda.
No, I really am.
There's just, um,
one little thing
I have to deal with.
Oh, honey, you can just
wax that right off.
What? No.
- I'm talking about my boss.
- What about him?
Well, he was also my boss
when I worked in San Antonio.
Wait. Scott?
Yes.
Is Georgie okay with that?
Well, I haven't told him yet.
- Are you and Scott still?
- No!
Then why haven't you told him?
Well, I haven't said anything
'cause I was just filling in here and there,
but now it's gonna seem like
I was hiding something.
- Because you were.
- Yeah.
- I always liked Scott.
- I know.
He was good for you.
He went to Duke.
His parents were rich.
I know!
I was so sad when he dumped you.
Well, if he hadn't,
I never would have met Georgie.
That has crossed my mind,
as well.
♪
Whose Corvette is that?
Fred Fagenbacher's.
Fagenbacher?
- Are they fighting?
- Just talking.
What could they be talking
about? They hate each other.
I talk to you,
and I'm not a fan.
Thanks for taking the time.
Fellas.
Mr. Fagenbacher.
Nice 'Vette you
got out there.
Thanks. The one lady in my life
who gets better with age.
[laughs]
I hear that.
What'd he want?
He offered to buy this place.
What? You said no, right?
I said I'd think about it.
Why?
Because I need
to think about it.
Should we be worried?
You should.
I laughed at his joke.
♪
What's that?
New boots for Georgie.
Something to make him feel better
after you tell him the news?
No. The boots are for
before I tell him.
Sex is for after.
Sometimes I think
we're too close.
You know,
if you're feeling guilty,
you can go to confession.
[scoffs]
You never go to confession.
I'm not hiding an ex-boyfriend
from my husband.
I'm gonna tell him!
[sighs]
I can't believe you're
actually considering this.
- Georgie, give it a rest.
- Come on. You hate that guy.
What's going on?
Can we talk in private?
Of course.
Is everything all right?
Fagenbacher offered to buy the store,
and your dad's considering it.
- What?!
- I know!
That place was supposed
to be mine someday.
Well, look,
nothing's happened yet.
[sighs]
It was gonna be our future.
And it still might be.
I hope so.
What's that?
Oh. Um, I bought you a present,
but now doesn't really seem
like the best time.
No. I could use
some cheering up.
Okay. Here you go.
Oh. These are beauts.
[chuckles softly]
What's the occasion?
Oh, no occasion.
I just love ya.
You are the best wife ever!
Forgive me, Father,
for my sins.
Uh
I haven't done this in a while.
It's okay. Whatever it is,
God will forgive.
I mean, there's not much
to forgive.
I just
I didn't tell my husband
that my new boss is also my ex-boyfriend
and that I've been working with him
on and off for the past few months.
Also, I'm not great at honoring my mother,
but you know her, you get it.
Why haven't you told
your husband?
Well, I'm worried
he's gonna be jealous.
Me and my ex were
involved
premaritally.
I see.
Yeah, but that was years ago.
- And we're-we're just coworkers now.
- Okay.
- I love my husband.
- Okay.
- And my baby.
- I'm sure you do.
And I would never do anything
to mess that up.
Like lying
to this husband you love.
Hey, I think you're supposed
to make me feel less guilty.
I think you've got
the wrong church.
♪
Why are you at the table?
Just thought I'd mix things up.
Hello.
You talk some sense into him?
I have all the sense I need.
- Do you?
- Enough.
Well, I'm out.
Hey. Sorry I'm late.
I'll catch you up.
I tried sitting at the table,
didn't care for it.
You're all caught up.
We're really not gonna talk
about this?
You made it very clear
how you feel.
Now we're trying
to figure out how we feel.
Well, this is a family business.
Maybe it should be
a family discussion.
It's a McAllister
family business.
And my wife's a McAllister.
- I'm a McAllister.
- Great. Then weigh in.
Your dad's thinking
of selling the store.
Yes, thinking about it.
We haven't made
any decisions yet.
If you sold it,
what would you do?
I don't know. Retire.
Well, you can't sit around
the house all day with no job.
We already got a guy for that.
It's not as easy as it looks.
You know, you did promise
the store to Georgie.
I talked about it.
I didn't promise.
I busted my butt for you,
and this is the thanks I get?
I gave you a job
and a house to live in.
And this ain't your business.
It's our business.
Well, if this is a McAllister
family discussion,
I guess I don't need
to be a part of it.
So, how's Father Donovan?
He says hi.
Hey.
Nice boots.
Yeah, Mandy got 'em for me.
- Is it your birthday?
- No.
- Anniversary?
- No.
So she just bought 'em for you
out of the blue?
Yes. Why do you care?
Every time a woman bought me
a present for no reason,
[laughs]
there was a reason.
Well, there is a reason.
She loves me.
[laughing]
Okay.
What are they made out of?
Alligator.
[laughing]
Okay.
Oh, forget the boots.
We might be losing our jobs.
Look, I'll be fine.
I got ten years of experience,
I'm working on my business degree,
and I speak two languages.
You, on the other hand,
barely speak one.
Oh, forget it.
See you later, alligator.
You know, we really don't need
to go out for dinner.
Yeah, we do.
Got to celebrate your new job.
- You just don't want to be around my dad.
- And celebrate your new job.
So tell me all about it.
Ah, well,
there's not much to say.
Oh, come on.
My boss sucks. What about yours?
Oh. Uh, Scott?
I don't know. He's nice.
That's good.
At least one of our bosses
ain't trying to screw us.
Hey, you're wearing
your new boots!
They look great.
[laughs]
Thanks.
You know, Ruben was giving me
a hard time about 'em.
- Why?
- He said the only reason
a woman ever buys a guy a gift is
when she feels guilty about something.
Well, that is just
sad.
He just hasn't met
the right woman.
Hey, what do you say, instead of dinner,
we just park somewhere and go fool around?
Now?
Yeah, now, 'cause,
you know, I love ya!
♪
[crickets chirping]
Let's take a look
at our three-day forecast.
There's a couple weather systems
we should keep our eye on.
Right now, there's a big storm
off to the east.
This is Tropical Storm Georgie,
and it's headed our way.
But also of concern
is this high-pressure system
from San Antonio that moved
right up here into Medford.
And if these two fronts collide,
we're looking
at a full-blown hurricane.
I'm talking 100% chance
of screaming and yelling,
and a 50-50 chance of divorce.
So batten down the hatches.
This one's gonna be ugly.
I can't believe
you lied to me!
She told me you knew!
Okay, you two!
[muffled shouting]
Those were guilt boots!
[muffled chatter]
I'm Mandy McAllister,
and I am screwed.
[gasps]
[footsteps approaching]
Hey. What are you doing up?
Couldn't sleep.
Me, either.
Ice cream?
Sure.
I'm gonna get my own spoon.
Well, la-di-da.
- This about Georgie?
- What?
I know he's pretty pissed at me.
Right. Yes. You.
- This decision ain't easy.
- Oh, come on.
You know you're not really
gonna sell to Fagenbacher.
Yeah. Yeah, I'd love to tell him
to take his offer and shove it.
And I'd be very specific
about exactly where.
Well, I can only think
of the one place, but okay.
It's a big offer.
Yeah?
Yeah. I could retire.
You're too young to retire.
I used to think that, but, uh,
Georgie's dad was
younger than me.
I don't want to
drop dead at work.
Yeah, I don't want that, either.
I know Georgie's
counting on this,
and I don't want to
leave him high and dry.
Oh, he'll be okay.
If I sell, you think
he'll forgive me?
Of course.
You didn't ask
for this to happen.
It just sort of
fell in your lap.
And, you know, sometimes
an opportunity's so good,
you can't say no, even if it is with
somebody you have a messy history with,
and sure, Georgie's gonna be upset,
but we have a baby together,
so what's he gonna do?!
I was hoping for a "yes" or "no,"
but I appreciate whatever that just was.
♪
Hey. You're up early.
Can't just sit around while other people
make decisions about my life.
- I got to do something.
- Like what?
I'll tell you if it works.
Okay. Yeah.
Nothing wrong with waiting to tell
someone something till the timing is right.
That's just good manners!
♪
Mr. Fagenbacher,
we need to talk.
Well, good morning to you, too.
I know why you're trying
to buy us out. You're afraid.
Afraid of what?
Competition.
[laughs]
I ain't afraid of nothing.
Except losing my hair.
I don't think I could go on.
Why don't you just
withdraw your offer,
and may the best store win?
Does Jim know you're here?
No, sir.
You got a lot gumption.
I like that.
In a manager.
Are you offering me a job?
'Cause I ain't for sale.
Everybody's for sale.
It's all just about
finding the right price.
Well, I disagree.
I like to think people are more
than just dollars and cents.
You can't put a price
on integrity and kindness.
[sighs]
I used to think that.
What happened?
I got rich.
But are you happy?
- Yeah.
- Dang it.
Seriously?
Is it cool
if I use you as a reference?
♪
[footsteps approaching]
Brought you some dinner.
Oh, thanks. Just trying
to finish a few things up.
I didn't know
you still got your hands dirty.
Yeah, sometimes.
Helps me think.
Reminds me of when we first
started this place--
me out front, you back here.
Yeah, that was a
long time ago, huh?
Doesn't feel like it.
What do you think I should do?
Whatever you decide,
I'm okay with it.
That's sweet.
But really unhelpful.
Just tell me what to do.
I don't know.
Great. The one time you
don't have an opinion.
This place has been
such a big part of our lives.
Hard to imagine not having it.
But maybe that's exciting.
There's a lot of things we could
do with this kind of money.
We could travel.
Ooh. Where would we go?
I've always wanted to go to
Montana, do some fly fishing.
Mm. Too bad.
We're going to Italy.
And the opinions are back.
We could save up
for CeeCee's college.
Yeah, if she wants
to go to col
- She's going to college.
- Okay.
I do feel bad
about Georgie.
He'll be fine.
How do you know?
He got me to warm up to him.
If he can do that,
who knows what he can do?
Kid is a miracle worker.
[indistinct chatter on TV]
Is that a Texas-shaped
belt buckle?
Oh, yeah. I just got it
for him. It's cute, right?
Looks a little big.
Yeah, Corpus Christi's
kind of digging into my nads.
- Hello.
- Hey.
Hi.
Something we need
to talk about.
[door closes, TV turns off]
So, uh, we've
made a decision,
and I know everyone ain't
gonna like it, but, uh,
it's final.
- You're selling the store.
- Yeah.
Well, I appreciate
you telling me.
Uh, I'm sure
it was a hard decision.
It was.
- I still live here for free, right?
- Not the time, Connor.
[crickets chirping]
You awake?
Uh-huh.
I don't want you to worry.
Everything's gonna be okay.
I know.
I'll figure something out.
I'm sure you will.
And in the meantime,
we got your new job,
which is great.
Yeah.
- Georgie?
- Mm-hmm.
There's something
I got to tell you.
