So Well That's pretty rare.
Yeah.

Dude, you just scared the crap out of me.
You should announce yourself before you I didn't get a chance to tell you earlier that I met with Richard gilchrist while you were away.
You met with Gilchrist while I was away.
Yeah, he called me, and he wanted to meet, said right away, so look, the important thing is he upped the offer, and I think that we should discuss it.
Look I was away for one day.
He more than doubled the offer.
I want to sell.
I'm getting married this week.
I know.
As everybody knows, in 72 hours, we're having a very big wedding here.
I need everybody's undivided attention.
Okay.
- Undivided.
- Here we go.
Now, thanks to Renee and Camille, we have a crackerjack list of wedding assignments.
Thank you very much, ladies.
Here we go.
Julia.
Sir! Honey, you are in charge of cake.
- Mmm.
- Yum.
- On it, boss.
- Oh, it's a good one.
And you gotta make it big enough for 40 people, sweetheart.
Actually, it's more like 57.
Wait, how did we get to 57? The church group.
The whole church? The church has to be up in here.
Shh! Hey.
Hey, hey.
Amy.
Amy, Amy.
Could I separate you and drew for just a second? You guys are gonna be on the Jordan almond wedding favors.
- Ooh, yay.
- Sarah.
- I'm Sarah! - You are on a rose-petal duty, my darling.
- Oh, nice one.
Wait.
What is rose-petal duty? - The rose-petal path that the bride and groom go down.
Bummer.
That's the embarrassing job.
Joel, Joel, are you paying attention? - Yes, sir.
- In deference to our partial Jewish ancestry, you will be making the chuppa.
It's "khuppa," dad.
It's not even Jewish.
Why do we keep pretending we're even well, the "hoopa.
" "Huppa.
" I'll make them both.
Great, all right.
Adam! As best man, you are in charge of the bachelor party.
I need you to keep watching over, make sure he's safe and sound.
- Will do.
- All right? There's, um, actually been a change in the wedding party.
So, uh, Billy's in town.
He's gonna be the best man.
I'll tell him about the bachelor party.
- What? - Who's Billy? - Billy? - Seriously, I'm not joking.
Come on, Crosby.
Yeah, well, you weren't being very best manly, so I replaced you with someone who is up for the job.
Oh, my God, are you serious? - Don't do this right now.
- Wait, is this real? You wanna talk about this, we can talk about this, but let's not talk about it here.
Let's take it outside.
No, let's talk about it right here if you wanna talk about it.
Yeah, I'm sure they would all love to hear about it.
What the hell's going on here? What the hell is going on Adam met behind my back and negotiated to sell the luncheonette.
I didn't try to sell the luncheonette.
That is not even how it happened.
Well, how did it happen, and how would you know? Are you a partner? Excuse me? Are you the one who told him to take the money? 'Cause that's so important! I did not! Do not talk to my wife like that! Billy's gonna be the best man.
Just move on.
Fine.
You know, Billy's an idiot, just like you, so it should work out perfectly.
Oh, really? He may be an idiot, but he's never screwed me over, okay? - I didn't screw you over! - Someone flashes money in front of your face, and then everything changes? How do you live with yourself? Do not mom, I didn't do anything! It's all him! It is all him! You didn't do anything because I met behind your back? No, I think you met behind my back.
Do not speak to me like this in front of my family.
Then why don't you just leave? You know what? We will.
Haddie, Max, Kristina, let's get going.
Let's get out of here.
All right? Yeah, we're leaving.
I'll see you later.
- You know what? - OhOh, my God.
- Honey - Did that just happen? You like that?! Yeah, oh, that was real good.
Oh, man, that was real just great! Let's go.
Crosby.
- Hey, hey, hey! - Ow! Let him go! Adam! Let him go.
Let him go.

I'm so sorry, Joel.
Thank you.
Thanks, Camille.
This is what we were worried was gonna happen, what we were hoping wouldn't.
Yeah.
I just want to put my arms around her, but You know Julia.
I'm worried that she needs her space.
I and sometimes I just don't know what to do.
You guys don't have to do this, you know.
Got it? I'm okay.
Sure.
It's wedding week.
You just gotta keep me busy.
Yeah, you got it.
No problem.
Yeah, I mean, 8,000.
We could make it an even 10,000.
For the trail legacy level.
Then we could have a company sponsor to match it.
Yep, think big.
Vote little.
Wonderful.
You have a great day.
Bye-bye.
Kristina, we need to talk.
Yes, we do.
I just got you $10,000 more for this campaign.
This is a pretty good system I've come up with.
Kristina, we still work together.
We're 15 feet away, and you're sending me emails.
Yes, I am.
Bob, look, I'm just gonna be honest with you, okay? I think that you're you're a great politician, and I think that we have a great shot at winning this election.
I do, but I don't trust you any more.
I just don't, I mean, everything that happened with Amber in Sacramento and it's really hard to look at you face-to-face every single day, and and lie about it.
That I will not do.
I put my little girl in day care to come work for you, and I like my job, I really do, but this is Amber's my niece.
Kristina, we've known each other for a long time.
You know I'm not a bad guy.
Now, forgive me that I've developed feelings for a capable, smart, beautiful, young woman whom you put into my life because you trusted her and you believed in her.
So I hope you'll be able to accept that and move on, because I need you on this campaign.
Those are your favorite muffins from golden's bakery.
They're delicious.
- So they're getting married? - Yep.
- That's crazy.
- Yeah.
I love that.
Uh, where are they doing it? Uh, at the house in the backyard.
- Very nice.
- Yeah.
Will you be my date? Yes, please.
I just thought it would be cool to have, if you're gonna do a last-minute wedding, have it in Ireland.
- Really? - Yeah.
Why? It's so romantic out there.
Home of Thomas Moore and van morrison.
How would you get everybody, you know, there? Let's say there's a baby.
Is there the baby baby can come.
Strap on the back.
- Uh-huh.
- Or carry-on.
- Yeah.
It changes, you know.
Being able to do something last-minute, you know? It's not like that for a while.
- Yeah.
No, I-I and it's possible that I, you know, won't get pregnant, you know? No, you will get pregnant.
Look, I was saying that I think Ireland is a cool, romantic place.
But we could just go there.
Mm.
Just take our baby and go there.
Okay.
I'll be right back.
Okay.
So dad was winning, right? - He doesn't seem pleased.
- No, 'cause he was guys, we're not gonna discuss it, okay? No, then Uncle Crosby was on top of him.
Neither one of them won, because they both lost track of their emotions and acted like children.
Well, that doesn't make any sense.
- Thanks for the help.
- Both people can't lose.
Stop stop it! You stop fighting.
That is not what we learn here, okay? Yes, it is.
Dad just did it.
- Grandpa! - Hey, honey, how you doing? - Say, "it's me!" - Grandson.
I didn't know he was coming over for dinner.
Do you want some dinner? Hey, pop.
- Adam.
- How you doing? - Good.
How are you? - We're good.
We're just making some beef bourguignon.
- Ooh.
- We're peaceful here.
- Beef bourguign what? - Beef stew.
Hey, Adam, can I talk to you for a second? I'm sorry, I didn't know you were coming.
- Yeah.
- I would've made stew.
I'll finish up.
Does dad get a consequence for fighting with Uncle Crosby? 'Cause I think he should, 'cause I got a consequence for fighting with Jabbar.
All right, what do you want to talk about? Well, your brother's getting married in less than 48 hours.
I'm well aware.
I really don't want the two of you arguing during the week he's gonna get married.
Well, I don't either, but it was his decision to announce to the entire family that I'm no longer his best man.
Well, you went behind his back to meet with that guy.
You know what? This is our business, all right? You don't need to be involved.
All of a sudden, I am involved.
I mean, my God, I had a world federation wrestling match in my living room, for Pete's sake.
- Well, I'm sorry about that.
- Adam, Adam, please.
Listen.
Just listen to me! You know what? We got a significant Would you listen to me for a minute? I need you to make up with him.
We don't want that crazy bastard Billy you guys sound like you're fighting.
- We're not fighting.
- If you're fighting, mom's got some salsa in the kitchen.
- We're fine, Max.
- No, it's not a fight.
Hey, do you have a new pet or something? Yes, I have a bearded dragon.
It's upstairs.
Do you wanna see it? Yes, I'd like to see the bearded dragon.
- Yeah, you should check it out.
- Let's go.
Fix it, please.
Grandpa, let's go! You wanna see it, let's see it.

'Cause if you're not happy with it, I can I can change it No, it's perfect.
- If that's better for you.
- No, it's so good.
Hey, I hope you're not bummed about my mother doubling the size of the wedding.
Um, I had nothing to do with that.

The more church folks and relatives, the better.
- You sure? - Yeah.
Okay.
Now what's going on with you and your brother? You mean other than the fistfight and me replacing him as best man? Yeah.
Yeah, other than that.
That's pretty much all the developments.
Come on, babe, you need to figure that out.
You can't be arguing with your brother on your wedding day.
Okay, well, you go fix him, and I'll stop fighting with him.
This is the same cycle we've always been in, where he's right and I'm wrong.
No matter what I do, he's right.
I mean, it was my idea to start the luncheonette, not his.
I'm the reason that we have this thing that's worth millions, okay, not him.
Yet somehow, he still doesn't see me as his equal.
Baby, you are taking this way too personal.
It's not personal.
It's business.
Your brother wants to be in a business, and you want to be in thbusiness.
And maybe it's not the same thing, but It's not personal.

Hi, I'm I'm, uh, Crosby's older brother Adam.
Uh, Crosby, uh, is a unique character, and he's taken a lot of flack over the years for a lot of different things.
Uh, for letting his mom do his laundry well into his 30s.
Being careless, when borrowing things from his brothers and sisters and forgetting where they are and borrowing money and not paying it back.
- Such a nice toast, thanks.
- Ah, I know.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
But he's a great guy.
And I was lucky enough this year to go into business with him.
And because of all those things, I told my wife, she looked at me like I was out of my mind.
But, uh, the business did very well.
So well, in fact, that we got an offer recently a huge offer from someone to buy the business from us.
Last couple years have been really tough for me, my family.
I lost my job, and Boy, this business came along at a great time.
And, uh, this offer, boy, it's it's an offer that changed my life.
Standing here looking at my brother and the rest of my family last night you were in my dreams .
I don't want my life to change.
'Cause not only do I have three wonderful kids and a perfect wife and I woke up .
I get to go to work every day with my brother Crosby.
oh, heart and bones and every day, he makes me laugh about life, about myself, and I don't know what I'd do without that.
So, uh Believe it or not, this is how I got the offer.
I got it on a napkin, originally.
Here it is.
And here's what I think about this life-changing offer.
Well, what's Billy gonna do? I already decided to go into business with him.
I love you.
