00:00:00Mom, remember when we talked about the difference between loving someone and being in love?
00:00:11No.
00:00:12No, not at all.
00:00:13Love is love.
00:00:14Mom, I'm sure you dated other guys before Dad, and maybe you even loved some of them.
00:00:23How did you know Dad was the one?
00:00:25By marrying him.
00:00:26Let's go.
00:00:27Let's go.
00:00:57What are you going to say?
00:01:04Where?
00:01:05Fuck.
00:01:06Hey.
00:01:07What's up?
00:01:08Hey.
00:01:09Hey, what do you think about doing a crushed velvet and chrome for Aunt Kate's house, huh?
00:01:28What happened?
00:01:29I don't know.
00:01:30I don't know.
00:01:31I don't know.
00:01:32I don't know.
00:01:33I don't know.
00:01:34I don't know.
00:01:35I don't know.
00:01:36I don't know.
00:01:37I don't know.
00:01:38I have no idea.
00:01:39I mean, I just, I don't.
00:01:45Love him.
00:01:46God, what is wrong with me?
00:01:49I mean, I've broken, not one, not two, but three.
00:02:00Three engagements.
00:02:02Three engagements.
00:02:04You came pretty close to sealing the deal this time.
00:02:08How is he?
00:02:10After you left, he kind of put his fist through the pulpit.
00:02:15Reverend Macy was really nice about it.
00:02:18Oh, I should have never said yes in the first place.
00:02:21Probably.
00:02:22Viv, he asked me to marry him in front of 50,000 basketball fans.
00:02:27Did you want me to break his heart on 100-foot jumbotron?
00:02:30Is that worse than breaking his heart at his own wedding?
00:02:33I'm awful.
00:02:35Jessie, that's not what I meant.
00:02:38No.
00:02:40You know what?
00:02:41It's fine.
00:02:43I'm clearly not meant for the whole marriage thing, so this is it.
00:02:47I'm done hurting people.
00:02:49No more wedding planning.
00:02:50No more engagement parties.
00:02:52I'm done.
00:02:55Two pair.
00:02:57Straight.
00:02:59I don't believe it.
00:03:00Pocket aces.
00:03:01You still beat me.
00:03:02Five-seven.
00:03:03Why would you even play that hand?
00:03:04Sometimes it's better to run good than play good.
00:03:06Unbelievable.
00:03:08I can't help it if I got the luck of the Irish in me.
00:03:10All right, easy, McTiernan.
00:03:11You're not that lucky all the time.
00:03:13You sure about that?
00:03:14Or you forget about that money that I took from you last week with my full house?
00:03:17I'm not talking about cards.
00:03:21What are you talking about, then?
00:03:23Women.
00:03:26Are you serious?
00:03:27He's kidding, right?
00:03:29I'm the only one who can still go out and get lucky.
00:03:31The rest of you have to go home to your wives.
00:03:33Look, we all know that you've dated lots of women, but none of them have gone anywhere.
00:03:38And thankfully so, because I don't want to get caught up in that whole marriage mess.
00:03:42Aiden, face it.
00:03:43You could never get a girl to commit.
00:03:45That's ridiculous.
00:03:46Of course I could.
00:03:47Really?
00:03:48Yeah.
00:03:50You want to bet?
00:03:52You get a girl to say yes to your marriage proposal by Christmas,
00:03:56and I will give you my corner office.
00:03:58Lose, and you have to take Charlie's cubicle.
00:04:01Sweet.
00:04:02That's crazy.
00:04:03Crazy because, what, you don't think you can do it?
00:04:04I mean, you've never run away from a bet before.
00:04:06No, it's crazy because Christmas is just four weeks away.
00:04:09Hey, Svetlana said yes after four weeks.
00:04:11Charlie, she was getting deported.
00:04:13Hey, man, look, it's cool.
00:04:14If you don't think you can win this one, just say so.
00:04:17I'll do it.
00:04:19Beg your pardon?
00:04:22But I have to choose the girl.
00:04:25Oh, dinner and dinner, my friend.
00:04:28You are on.
00:04:39Hey.
00:04:40Oh, sorry.
00:04:41Are you busy?
00:04:45Just getting ready for a job.
00:04:48Someone dropped their wedding ring down a drain.
00:04:51Mike, I am so sorry.
00:04:54I know.
00:04:55I should have never let it get this far.
00:04:57You and my family and everyone went through so much trouble and...
00:05:06Here.
00:05:09Keep it.
00:05:10No, Mike, I can't.
00:05:12Just hang on to it.
00:05:15You don't have to wear it if it freaks you out too much.
00:05:17Just keep it.
00:05:19You never know.
00:05:20Maybe with a little time, you'll change your mind.
00:05:28You kept the ring?
00:05:29He wouldn't take it back, and I've hurt him enough already.
00:05:33Jess, you have got to stop saying yes to these guys
00:05:35just so you won't hurt their feelings.
00:05:37Because guess what?
00:05:38You're going to hurt them anyway.
00:05:40You know me.
00:05:41I hate confrontation.
00:05:42Look, if a guy asks you to marry him on a 100-foot jumbotron,
00:05:45that's the risk he's willing to take in public humiliation.
00:05:48You're right.
00:05:49You've got to learn to be more assertive.
00:05:51You could have just said no.
00:05:53No.
00:05:54Good.
00:05:55Thanks.
00:05:56So you're going to give the ring back?
00:05:57No.
00:05:58What?
00:05:59Yes, next week.
00:06:08Brilliant.
00:06:11Brilliant?
00:06:13Brilliant.
00:06:16Do you know the artist?
00:06:18I can't say that I do.
00:06:20He's actually a client at the trading firm I work for.
00:06:22I could introduce you.
00:06:24It's a weird purse.
00:06:25I should introduce myself.
00:06:26I'm Matt.
00:06:27Matt Harper.
00:06:29Jessie.
00:06:30Jessie.
00:06:31Nice.
00:06:32Did you, um...
00:06:33Sorry.
00:06:34Damaged goods.
00:06:35She's just getting over a broken engagement.
00:06:36Awesome.
00:06:37I'm going through a divorce so we can swap stories.
00:06:38She's sworn off men, dating, marriage, the whole thing.
00:06:40Really?
00:06:41Okay.
00:06:42Well, I don't want to mess with damaged goods.
00:06:43Unless, of course, your sister would like to...
00:06:45Is gay.
00:06:46Yeah, she is.
00:06:48Okay.
00:06:49Well, I'm just going to, um...
00:06:51I think that there's...
00:06:52Maybe, um...
00:06:57And that's how it's done.
00:07:02So?
00:07:03Any luck?
00:07:05Well, Bull, you told me to study this painting
00:07:07to seek creative enlightenment when acquiring his stalks.
00:07:10Yeah, I was just talking about the girl.
00:07:13Yeah, I know what you're talking about.
00:07:14Good, because I have found the one.
00:07:17I thought the deal was that I choose.
00:07:19Hey, can't a guy help a friend out
00:07:20besides she is super cute, all right,
00:07:22and recently single?
00:07:23Is this some kind of joke?
00:07:24Hey.
00:07:27Tell me.
00:07:37Okay.
00:07:54She is super cute.
00:07:56Yeah.
00:07:57I wonder what's wrong with her.
00:07:58Nothing.
00:07:59You know, other than she turned me down.
00:08:01She turned you down?
00:08:02She turned me down.
00:08:05I like her already.
00:08:07Yeah.
00:08:18I hate wearing heels in these things.
00:08:20I'm sorry?
00:08:22It's just the walk from the car.
00:08:25It kills my calves.
00:08:26Oh.
00:08:27I bet you look great in stilettos.
00:08:29Seriously, though,
00:08:30whoever said women look better in heels is way off.
00:08:32Kicks.
00:08:33Now, that's hot.
00:08:34Yeah, well, somehow I doubt kicks with this dress
00:08:36would be very hot.
00:08:39You would be the envy of every woman in this room
00:08:41if you wore kicks with that dress.
00:08:47Aiden McTiernan.
00:08:49Jessie Pedersen.
00:08:52So, Jessie, are you in the market for some new art?
00:08:56I came with my sister.
00:08:58So, your sister, is she a collector?
00:09:00We're interior designers.
00:09:02Really?
00:09:03Interesting.
00:09:04Vijay Designs.
00:09:06Vijay?
00:09:07Vivian Jessie Designs.
00:09:09It's...
00:09:10Oh, Vijay, yeah.
00:09:12I get that.
00:09:16Hey, you want to grab a coffee?
00:09:19No.
00:09:25Could I get a card?
00:09:27Because I'm looking to redecorate my condo.
00:09:29No.
00:09:30I thought maybe we could go over some ideas.
00:09:32No.
00:09:33No?
00:09:34Yes.
00:09:35Huh?
00:09:36Jessie would be thrilled to give you a consultation.
00:09:40Great.
00:09:41Saturday, 10.30?
00:09:42Saturday's perfect.
00:09:45Vivian, I assume?
00:09:46That's right.
00:09:47Aiden, it's a pleasure.
00:09:49So, this is the whole Vijay experience, huh?
00:09:52Yeah.
00:09:53I'm going to email you my address.
00:10:02Okay.
00:10:08Hello.
00:10:09Jessie.
00:10:10Hey.
00:10:11Hey.
00:10:12Wow.
00:10:13Elevator into the place, huh?
00:10:14Yeah, it's neat.
00:10:15Welcome.
00:10:17So, this is it.
00:10:18Other than what I see in Ikea catalogs,
00:10:20I really have no idea how to do this, so...
00:10:24Well, one thing you should know about me
00:10:27is I design based on the individual.
00:10:29Well, and comfort, of course.
00:10:31So, I mean, your place is great.
00:10:33It's just not really that functional.
00:10:36The first thing we're going to do
00:10:38is personalize your space.
00:10:41Does that mean you need to get to know me better?
00:10:43Because we can go for a glass of wine
00:10:45and I'll tell you everything you need to know.
00:10:47Color.
00:10:48What?
00:10:49Do you prefer a blue tone, a red, a neutral?
00:10:53Yeah.
00:10:54Blue is good.
00:10:56Okay, great.
00:10:57So, I'll just need you to look at these fabric swatches
00:10:59and color.
00:11:02Okay.
00:11:08Oh.
00:11:13I'm so sorry.
00:11:15I didn't know that you were married.
00:11:17I'm not.
00:11:18Engaged.
00:11:19I wasn't.
00:11:20Or whatever.
00:11:21I never was.
00:11:22I'm getting it back.
00:11:24So, I'll let you keep this
00:11:26and if you just want to go through the colors and fabrics
00:11:29let me know.
00:11:30We can get a nice color scheme going.
00:11:33And then you can email me.
00:11:35Yeah, I'll email you.
00:11:36And we'll go from there, okay?
00:11:38Yeah, cool.
00:11:39Yeah, I'll...
00:11:42I'll talk to you soon.
00:11:43Great.
00:11:44Okay.
00:11:47Bye.
00:11:48Bye.
00:11:52What?
00:11:56I don't believe this.
00:11:57You knew.
00:11:59You knew I had no chance with this woman.
00:12:00Hey, it's not my fault you chose her
00:12:01before you did your own reconnaissance.
00:12:03That's not fair.
00:12:04Hey, you could just admit defeat.
00:12:05I mean, I'm sure we can have you moved into Charlie's cubicle
00:12:07by, like, the end of the day, pal.
00:12:09Stop!
00:12:11Stop it.
00:12:15It's fun over there.
00:12:16Stop it, man.
00:12:17Forget it.
00:12:19I'll make this happen.
00:12:20All right.
00:12:22Good luck.
00:12:25What a waste of time.
00:12:26Guess we'll be renting this place for another year.
00:12:29Coming.
00:12:34Aidan.
00:12:35Hey.
00:12:36Hey.
00:12:37What are you doing here?
00:12:42Aidan.
00:12:43Hey.
00:12:44Hey.
00:12:45What are you doing here?
00:12:47I thought I'd come talk to you about all your ideas.
00:12:50Please.
00:12:52Come in.
00:12:53Right.
00:12:54Well, I actually put together this board for you
00:12:57if you want to take a look.
00:12:59Um, I was thinking, you know, like, this general vibe.
00:13:03You know, it's hard for me to tell
00:13:05if I really love something from a picture.
00:13:07I need to physically touch it.
00:13:09Ah.
00:13:10Right.
00:13:11Um, okay.
00:13:13Well, I'm going to the store later today,
00:13:15so you know what?
00:13:16It's no problem.
00:13:17I can pull some of these pieces,
00:13:18and then, you know, you can check them out.
00:13:20Oh, no, you're heading there today?
00:13:21Yeah.
00:13:22Oh, great, because I have the rest of the afternoon off.
00:13:24I can go with you.
00:13:25Great.
00:13:26No.
00:13:27I mean, it's so time-consuming,
00:13:30and I have all of those orders to pick up.
00:13:34Hey, Jessie.
00:13:35Mike.
00:13:37What are you doing here?
00:13:38I just stopped by.
00:13:40I thought I could buy you some lunch.
00:13:43I'd love to.
00:13:44Uh, it was just that I'm about to take my client here, Aidan,
00:13:47to go furniture shopping.
00:13:49You ready to go?
00:13:53Yes.
00:13:54Great.
00:14:00Nice to meet you.
00:14:01Yeah, you too.
00:14:05Some other time, then?
00:14:07Yeah.
00:14:09For sure.
00:14:16Okay, now this is what I was thinking for your living room.
00:14:19Isn't it fabulous?
00:14:21I, myself, love an extra-long couch.
00:14:23It gives me plenty of room to lay down, relax,
00:14:27do whatever, you know.
00:14:32Right, right?
00:14:35Hey, take a seat.
00:14:36Ah, no, no, I'm fine, thank you.
00:14:39Have a seat.
00:14:40How do you know how it feels?
00:14:44Okay.
00:14:52What are you doing now?
00:14:58Pretend you're watching a movie.
00:15:01Okay.
00:15:03Let me guess.
00:15:04We're watching a romance.
00:15:06Horror film, actually.
00:15:09Really?
00:15:10Yeah.
00:15:11I love that moment when I know I'm about to be so scared,
00:15:15but I still don't know when it's coming,
00:15:17and then all of a sudden it's...
00:15:18Bam!
00:15:21I know the feeling exactly.
00:15:23My parents used to leave me alone a lot when I was younger,
00:15:25and I used to watch slasher movies
00:15:26to see how scared I could make myself.
00:15:28Oh, yeah?
00:15:29How old were you?
00:15:30Ten, twelve.
00:15:33And you were alone?
00:15:38And you were alone?
00:15:41Who's that guy you were trying to dodge at the house?
00:15:44Not that it matters to me,
00:15:45considering I was the one you were trying to shake
00:15:47before he showed up.
00:15:48Okay, well, I wasn't trying to shake anyone.
00:15:53And that was Mike.
00:15:55He was my fiancé.
00:16:04Okay, we have all the major pieces.
00:16:07Now we just need accents,
00:16:09like pillows, lamps, side tables, that sort of a thing.
00:16:13It's hard to believe Christmas is just a few weeks away.
00:16:17What do you think of Christmas decor?
00:16:19I mean, from a design perspective.
00:16:24I think for the most part it's tacky and over-the-top.
00:16:27But, I don't know, when it's done right...
00:16:31I really like Christmas time.
00:16:33My favorite thing about it, though, isn't the decor.
00:16:36It's actually the music.
00:16:41Really?
00:16:42Yeah.
00:16:43Corny as it may sound,
00:16:45you've always had a soft spot for Christmas carols.
00:16:50Is that funny to you?
00:16:53No, it's not.
00:17:15It's okay.
00:17:39Hey, Jessie?
00:17:41Owen!
00:17:42Hi!
00:17:43Hi!
00:17:44Wow, funny bumping into you here.
00:17:46It's terrible.
00:17:47Yeah, no, listen, I'm just on my way out,
00:17:49but Sandy was wondering if we're still on for dinner
00:17:52in the new year.
00:17:53You bet.
00:17:54Great, because we should really do it this time.
00:17:56I agree.
00:17:57OK, good.
00:17:58So a forecast is calling for a 90% chance of dinner.
00:18:02You got it.
00:18:02All right.
00:18:03Good to see you.
00:18:04Yeah.
00:18:05Great work.
00:18:11Who was that?
00:18:12Oh, um, that was Owen, one of my fiancées.
00:18:16He's married now to this lovely woman named Sandy.
00:18:20Another fiancée?
00:18:21Mm-hmm.
00:18:23How many have you had?
00:18:24Three, Owen, Trent, and Mike.
00:18:35Three times.
00:18:36She's been engaged three times.
00:18:37Maybe it'll be easy to get her to say yes.
00:18:39She's done it three times.
00:18:40Three times too many.
00:18:42I don't know, it sounds to me like you should start
00:18:43packing your cupicle, Charlie.
00:18:45I know what she likes.
00:18:46I never knew I loved cabbage rolls
00:18:48until I married Svetlana.
00:18:49It's why we're perfect for each other.
00:18:53Well, we both like scary movies.
00:18:55That's great.
00:18:56You can bond over the exercise.
00:18:59Ah, that's the side table.
00:19:00That goes over by the window, please.
00:19:02Excuse me.
00:19:02Be careful.
00:19:05Over there.
00:19:07Hey, do you have any wall art, like pictures and photos?
00:19:10Just bullious piece.
00:19:12Yeah, but you're not a fan.
00:19:14Well, you don't think it'll work?
00:19:16Art should be personal.
00:19:18You know, it should mean something to you.
00:19:21Do you have any family portraits?
00:19:23Brothers, sisters?
00:19:24You're looking at an only child.
00:19:26OK.
00:19:27How about you?
00:19:28You got anyone else other than your sister?
00:19:30Just me and my parents, but we're up pretty close.
00:19:32Over here, please.
00:19:33So tell me, what do you like to do, aside from designing?
00:19:39Well, I volunteer at a dog shelter.
00:19:43Really?
00:19:44Yeah.
00:19:45Barkley Dog Shelter.
00:19:46It's really the only way I can satisfy
00:19:48my urge to have a dog.
00:19:50Sister's allergies.
00:19:52I love dogs.
00:19:53Yeah, I can tell by your pet-free building.
00:19:56No, no, no, really.
00:19:57I love dogs.
00:20:00Here.
00:20:02What's this?
00:20:03You asked me if I had any family portraits.
00:20:05Well, that's it.
00:20:07Just me and my dog, Luke.
00:20:10He was a good dog.
00:20:11There.
00:20:15Thanks.
00:20:17Now, excuse me.
00:20:21Wait, I could have sworn the lamps were
00:20:23coming with this delivery.
00:20:25You know what?
00:20:26I'll give them a call and see if they're still coming.
00:20:28Well, look, if you don't have to do anything,
00:20:30I don't have to go anywhere either.
00:20:32I can get some takeout, and we can wait till they come.
00:20:35What do you like?
00:20:35You know, sushi, thai.
00:20:39I could go for a burger.
00:20:42Really?
00:20:43Yeah.
00:20:44OK, I'll get some cheeseburgers.
00:20:46There's a great spot down the street.
00:20:49Stick around, OK?
00:20:50OK.
00:20:51We'll hang out until the lamps arrive.
00:20:58Oh, this part's nasty.
00:21:03Hey, what about a piano in the corner?
00:21:06Well, I don't really play.
00:21:09Oh, please.
00:21:10Yes, you do.
00:21:10I heard you the other night.
00:21:11You were great.
00:21:15Thanks.
00:21:16You're welcome.
00:21:17My mom and I used to play carols every Christmas,
00:21:21at least until the divorce.
00:21:23After that, Christmas was different.
00:21:28It must have been hard.
00:21:31Who'd you spend Christmas with, your mom or your dad?
00:21:34Whatever the lawyers decided.
00:21:43Oh.
00:21:44What?
00:21:45Run!
00:21:46Run!
00:21:47Oh, no!
00:21:47Ah!
00:21:51Libs.
00:21:57So you and Aiden were having dinner and watching
00:21:59a movie together, alone.
00:22:02Yes, but it wasn't like that.
00:22:05No, we were working.
00:22:06We were waiting for that delivery.
00:22:08Uh-huh.
00:22:09It was so funny, because we're sitting there watching
00:22:10a scary movie, and the delivery guy
00:22:12comes in and scares the pants off us.
00:22:14This girl, she likes burgers, guys.
00:22:16Not Thai, not sushi.
00:22:18Burgers and fries.
00:22:20I mean, how many girls do you know that'll
00:22:20dig into a 12-ounce fat boy?
00:22:22Oh, and she likes dogs.
00:22:24Get this.
00:22:25She volunteers at a dog show.
00:22:27OK, enough, enough, Romeo.
00:22:28We're all in here.
00:22:29You going to play this hand or what?
00:22:31Yeah, right.
00:22:32Sounds like you two might be perfect for each other.
00:22:34OK, well, I wouldn't say that, all right?
00:22:37It's got to be believable, right, for me to win the bet?
00:22:41Oh, unbelievable.
00:22:44I'm out.
00:22:45What, you leaving already?
00:22:46Yeah, I got an early squash game in the morning.
00:22:48Yeah, I got Svetlana's family coming in for Christmas.
00:22:52What about you, Stu?
00:22:53You going to stick around for a little two-handed euchre?
00:22:55Oh, no, I told Bev that I was renting a DVD.
00:22:58For two hours?
00:23:00Yeah, she thinks I'm indecisive.
00:23:03All right, buddy, just remember, you've got three weeks
00:23:05left to make it happen.
00:23:07Not a problem.
00:23:08See you, man.
00:23:10Later.
00:23:24Guess what?
00:23:25We are going to get you all pretty,
00:23:28because you have a family coming to look at you today.
00:23:32Yes, you do.
00:23:33Jesse, I was wondering if you could
00:23:35show our new volunteer what needs to get done around here.
00:23:37Oh, yeah.
00:23:42Aiden.
00:23:45You two know each other.
00:23:46Even better.
00:23:47Thanks.
00:23:51What are you doing here?
00:23:53You inspired me.
00:23:54And besides, if I can't have a dog, I think you're right.
00:23:56This might be the next best thing.
00:23:59Who's this guy?
00:24:00This scruffy boy, hey.
00:24:02That's Jake.
00:24:03Hey, good-looking guy.
00:24:05So, what can I do?
00:24:08Well, I think you can start by cleaning Mr. Lincoln's kennel.
00:24:18Yeah, OK.
00:24:21Oh, hey there, Lincoln.
00:24:24Get y'all spiffed up to do that injustice, huh?
00:24:26Oh, for such a little guy, you sure do some big.
00:24:31Wow.
00:24:32Here, let me take him off your hands.
00:24:33All right.
00:24:36Rookie.
00:24:45You know how lucky you are?
00:24:47Your parents let you have a dog.
00:24:50Yeah, I don't know about that.
00:24:53After the divorce, they thought it was too much work.
00:24:59So they decided to bring Luke to the pound.
00:25:02Since then, it's been hard for me
00:25:03to get too attached to anything.
00:25:07Come here.
00:25:09Yeah, that's a good boy.
00:25:10That's such a good boy.
00:25:12Right here.
00:25:13Come here.
00:25:13Jesse.
00:25:16Uh, that's Mike.
00:25:18I'll be right back.
00:25:23Rhonda told me that you'd be here with the dogs.
00:25:26I didn't know you'd have company.
00:25:29Aiden, yeah.
00:25:32He's volunteering at the shelter.
00:25:35Oh.
00:25:36First he's a client, and now he's a volunteer.
00:25:39OK.
00:25:40Well, I wanted to talk to you about setting another date.
00:25:44A date?
00:25:46Look, I can understand if you don't
00:25:47want to do the whole ceremony thing again.
00:25:49We can skip that.
00:25:50Maybe just go to City Hall or something.
00:25:55Listen, um.
00:25:56Think of how happy this will make your mother.
00:25:58Wait, Jake, Jake!
00:25:59Jake!
00:26:02No.
00:26:02Jake!
00:26:04I'll be right back.
00:26:04Jesse!
00:26:06Come here, boy.
00:26:09Stay.
00:26:10Stay, boy.
00:26:12Jake!
00:26:13Come here, boy!
00:26:14Stop him!
00:26:14Stop him!
00:26:15Mike, grab him!
00:26:16I got it.
00:26:18Come on, boy.
00:26:19Come on.
00:26:23Poor guy.
00:26:24You think he's going to be OK?
00:26:25Mike?
00:26:26Oh, he'll be fine.
00:26:30When did you know Mike, Owen, and?
00:26:32Trent.
00:26:33Trent.
00:26:36When did you know they weren't the ones?
00:26:38When they proposed, I guess.
00:26:40The idea of spending the rest of my life with them.
00:26:43I just kind of panicked.
00:26:44Isn't that normal?
00:26:45Aren't you supposed to get cold feet?
00:26:47I don't think so.
00:26:49I think when you're truly in love,
00:26:52the idea of spending the rest of your life with someone
00:26:55can make you the happiest you've ever been.
00:26:57Hey.
00:26:59I just wanted to let you know there's a bunch of guys
00:27:01in hazmat suits and masks at my condo.
00:27:04I don't know if I should pull out the boxing gloves
00:27:06and start defending myself, or what.
00:27:08I forgot to tell you that I'm having your floors refinished,
00:27:11so I'll be getting a few more days off.
00:27:14If that's OK with you.
00:27:15Oh, no.
00:27:16No.
00:27:17That's OK.
00:27:18It's fine.
00:27:18It's fine.
00:27:19I'm glad you're OK.
00:27:20I'm OK.
00:27:21I'm OK.
00:27:22What's wrong?
00:27:23I don't know.
00:27:24I'm just mad.
00:27:24I don't know.
00:27:25The store's refinished, so you're gonna love it.
00:27:28It's just you can't walk in your apartment
00:27:30for about six hours.
00:27:33Well, I guess I'm meeting out tonight.
00:27:38You wanna join me?
00:27:41I was actually headed to my parents' for game night.
00:27:43Game night?
00:27:44Yeah.
00:27:45Well, that sounds like fun.
00:27:49Do you wanna come?
00:27:53Oh, hi.
00:27:55Where's your sister?
00:27:56Ah, she's on a date.
00:27:57Oh, and I see you brought one along as well.
00:28:00Actually, this is my client, Aiden.
00:28:02Oh.
00:28:03Nice to meet you.
00:28:04Hey, Bolt.
00:28:05Good to see ya.
00:28:06Now, who's this?
00:28:07Aiden, Jessie's client.
00:28:10Pleasure to meet you, sir.
00:28:12Aiden's floors are getting refinished,
00:28:14so I thought for the inconvenience,
00:28:15I'd bring him along.
00:28:17That's my sugar cookies.
00:28:19I've gotta dress them before they get cool.
00:28:20Let me guess, the glass bottom method?
00:28:22Is there any other way?
00:28:24You need some help?
00:28:25I would love that.
00:28:26Come with me.
00:28:27You know what I really like to do?
00:28:29I like to make sure that the sugar cookies are safe.
00:28:30Here.
00:28:33I saw this.
00:28:35Oh, Mom loves scrapbooking,
00:28:38and she's kind of obsessed with documenting our lives.
00:28:42This one looks interesting.
00:28:44Oh, that's Mom's engagement album.
00:28:46It's...
00:28:48Oh.
00:28:51Most people have wedding albums.
00:28:55My mom has an engagement album.
00:29:00Uh, that's Owen.
00:29:03He was my first fiance.
00:29:04He was a weatherman for Channel 5.
00:29:08And he proposed on live television
00:29:11during a weather forecast.
00:29:13Lucky you.
00:29:15There's Trent, number two.
00:29:18He proposed on the marquee at the theater.
00:29:24He's a movie critic.
00:29:26You know, anything for a good review.
00:29:29Mm, right, and of course, you know, Mike.
00:29:33You know, Mike.
00:29:44You look beautiful here.
00:29:55You know, I have a great idea.
00:29:57Why don't we sing some carols around the piano?
00:30:02Aidan, do you play?
00:30:04Oh, no, no, I don't play.
00:30:05Yeah, you do, you're great.
00:30:08Which carols do you know?
00:30:10I like, uh, First Noel.
00:30:15That's my favorite.
00:30:17Shall we?
00:30:18♪ The first Noel, the angel did say ♪
00:30:24♪ Was to certain poor shepherds in the fields where they lay ♪
00:30:30♪ In fields where they lay keeping their sheep ♪
00:30:37♪ On a cold winter's night that was so deep ♪
00:30:44♪ Noel, Noel, Noel, Noel ♪
00:30:53♪ For is the King of Israel, Noel, Noel, Noel ♪
00:31:00Great.
00:31:02How about this one?
00:31:04♪ Should old acquaintance be forgot ♪
00:31:09♪ And never brought to mind ♪
00:31:13♪ Should old acquaintance be forgot ♪
00:31:17♪ In days of old anxiety for old ♪
00:31:30Why did you invite him?
00:31:32Well, I just thought it might be kind of lovely to-
00:31:34Don't put me on the spot.
00:31:35Well, sweetheart, I had no idea you were bringing a date.
00:31:37She's not a date.
00:31:38I just took off.
00:31:39Shh, he's a client.
00:31:40And anyways, Mom, it doesn't matter, okay?
00:31:42I have already told you, I don't want to be with Mike.
00:31:46And if you mean Aiden, I mean, I think that he is just-
00:31:48It's not a thing.
00:31:49It's not a thing.
00:31:50You're crazy.
00:31:52I'm not marrying anyone.
00:31:55Okay?
00:32:00Shall we play?
00:32:02Oh, Dad, I don't think this is the right time.
00:32:06I'll play.
00:32:08That is, if anyone else is game.
00:32:12Well, Jesse did invite me over for game night.
00:32:16He's right.
00:32:17I did.
00:32:21Deal him up.
00:32:23I bet 40.
00:32:24Ooh.
00:32:27Call.
00:32:32Fold.
00:32:36I'm out.
00:32:41I'm all in.
00:32:46I fold.
00:32:48I raise.
00:32:54Mike.
00:33:00Mike.
00:33:02What are you doing?
00:33:06Just raising the stakes.
00:33:09It's not my van.
00:33:10It's my 57 Chevy.
00:33:16You win or not.
00:33:20Eh.
00:33:22Eh, fine.
00:33:25Infinity Coupe.
00:33:27I call.
00:33:34I can't believe he's taking your car.
00:33:38Ah, see, I knew it.
00:33:40He's just pulling our leg.
00:33:42I'll come back tomorrow for my Chevy.
00:33:45Yeah, but if my mom hadn't invited him, this wouldn't have happened.
00:33:50Come on, it's nice to have a mom who cares.
00:33:54I know.
00:33:55I just don't want any pressure.
00:33:57Next time, I want to know for sure.
00:34:00Next time?
00:34:03So you're saying you haven't sworn marriage off for good?
00:34:07I didn't say that.
00:34:08Good night.
00:34:09Peace.
00:34:12Uh, it's real nice of you.
00:34:15Thanks.
00:34:17See ya.
00:34:25Alright, the bet's off.
00:34:28Oh, so you struck out, huh?
00:34:30No, no, it's not that.
00:34:31It's just that I don't know what to do.
00:34:34I don't know what to do.
00:34:35Oh, so you struck out, huh?
00:34:36No, no, it's not that.
00:34:37It's just, it's not cool.
00:34:40I mean, the girl's been through enough already.
00:34:41Three engagements?
00:34:43And besides,
00:34:46I kind of get why those other guys proposed to her.
00:34:48Whoa, hold on.
00:34:50Are you saying that you actually do want to marry this girl?
00:34:54What I'm saying is the bet is off.
00:34:57Okay, look, I feel for the girl.
00:34:59I do, okay?
00:35:00But a bet is a bet, my friend.
00:35:02So if you forfeit,
00:35:03be prepared to ring in the new year in a 4x6 cubicle.
00:35:06So I won.
00:35:08If you could just say that I won.
00:35:10Okay, I don't think you understand.
00:35:11This dog is totally out of control.
00:35:13He's completely untrained.
00:35:15Last night he was up all night barking and whining.
00:35:17Sir, he's just a little stressed from being in a new environment.
00:35:20He'll settle down.
00:35:22I don't have time to wait for him to settle down.
00:35:25It's too much work, isn't it?
00:35:27You know, you're breaking their hearts.
00:35:29Uh, what?
00:35:30Your kids.
00:35:32I'm sure they don't care Jake stays up all night or won't stay or sit.
00:35:35They just want a dog.
00:35:36Okay.
00:35:37Well, it's not just about your kids.
00:35:38Poor Jake here.
00:35:39Thought he was getting out of his cage.
00:35:41That's not my problem.
00:35:42That's not your problem.
00:35:43You adopted him.
00:35:45You know, we got pancakes here if you want to eat them.
00:36:02No.
00:36:04I can't believe that guy.
00:36:05He just comes in here like that.
00:36:24That's great.
00:36:26Yeah.
00:36:28I'm glad you're here.
00:36:29Yes.
00:36:30Yeah.
00:36:32Okay.
00:36:34Sure.
00:36:36I'll tell Jessie that you can meet her on Saturday.
00:36:40Okay.
00:36:44That was just our first referral.
00:36:46Thanks to your good friend Aiden.
00:36:48See?
00:36:50I told you mingling was the way to go.
00:36:52It was like this.
00:36:54Like this crazy dream sequence.
00:36:57What are you talking about?
00:37:01He's the one.
00:37:03Yep.
00:37:05Aiden is the one.
00:37:12What do you mean?
00:37:14Like the one?
00:37:18The what?
00:37:19Like the one.
00:37:21Like the one.
00:37:23That's great.
00:37:24No, it isn't.
00:37:25I finally meet the man that I can see myself spending the rest of my life with.
00:37:31And he's not marriage material.
00:37:33Are you sure?
00:37:35Viv, I told you.
00:37:37This guy's damaged goods.
00:37:39Oh.
00:37:40It's him.
00:37:41Don't he have threats?
00:37:42Jessie.
00:37:44Look.
00:37:46You can't be sure.
00:37:48Not until you ask.
00:37:50Ask what?
00:37:52You want me...
00:37:54to ask him...
00:37:58to marry me?
00:37:59Think about it.
00:38:00Jess, this is perfect.
00:38:02You're always the one who's being asked.
00:38:04And look how that turned out.
00:38:05Hey!
00:38:06So?
00:38:07What if this time we switch it up?
00:38:11You do the asking.
00:38:12Ah.
00:38:13You do the asking.
00:38:14You do the asking.
00:38:15You do the asking.
00:38:16You do the asking.
00:38:17You do the asking.
00:38:18You do the asking.
00:38:19You do the asking.
00:38:21I...
00:38:22I cannot believe that you're serious right now.
00:38:23I cannot believe you're standing here telling me to propose to Aiden.
00:38:27Why not?
00:38:28What if he says no?
00:38:30What if he says yes?
00:38:32And doesn't mean it.
00:38:34Uh-uh.
00:38:35No way.
00:38:36No?
00:38:37I've been that guy.
00:38:38Been down that road.
00:38:40No.
00:38:41I can't do that.
00:38:44Yes, you can.
00:38:51So, she kissed you and now she won't take your calls.
00:38:55Sounds to me like you were casualty number four, my friend.
00:38:57You think so?
00:38:58I mean, this kiss, it was epic, you know?
00:39:00What does that mean?
00:39:01I have no idea.
00:39:03But I don't know what any of this means.
00:39:04Hey, look, man.
00:39:05This girl clearly has some issues, all right?
00:39:07I mean, look at her track record.
00:39:09If you ask me, the thing to do now is just walk away.
00:39:20All right.
00:39:50All right.
00:40:20Do you like it?
00:40:25Do I like it?
00:40:28I love it.
00:40:31How did you pull this off?
00:40:33Well, I may have borrowed your photo for a little bit.
00:40:40About the other day...
00:40:41No, no, no.
00:40:42There's no need to explain.
00:40:43I totally understand.
00:40:45I was kind of naive to think that I was different from the other guys.
00:40:50And...
00:40:53You've been under so much pressure and I don't want you to feel that from me.
00:40:57So, look, just...
00:40:59Give me your invoice.
00:41:01I'll take care of it now and we can be all squared up.
00:41:03Marry me!
00:41:05Excuse me?
00:41:07I know my track record hasn't been stellar
00:41:09and I swore that I would never do it again unless I knew.
00:41:15And I know.
00:41:17So...
00:41:19Aiden McTiernan...
00:41:24Will you marry me?
00:41:32I...
00:41:37Oh.
00:41:41Okay.
00:41:43I've clearly just made you so uncomfortable and...
00:41:47I know that feeling.
00:41:48So don't say anything at all.
00:41:51And in fact, I've been trying to figure out this whole thing.
00:41:56So, thank you for clearing it up for me.
00:42:00And as far as the invoice goes,
00:42:02yeah, I'll email you and feel free to send a check.
00:42:05But honestly, no pressure at all.
00:42:07You have no...
00:42:08Yes.
00:42:09I'm sorry. What did you say?
00:42:13I...
00:42:15I said yes.
00:42:16Yes.
00:42:19Yes, you'll marry me.
00:42:22Yes, I will marry you.
00:42:28Are you sure? Because I can't have any pressure. I wouldn't...
00:42:42You asked him?
00:42:43Yeah.
00:42:45Isn't it great?
00:42:48Jesse, are you sure?
00:42:50I mean, it's not that I'm not thrilled,
00:42:52but I just think that my...
00:42:53Mom, I have never been more sure of anything in my life.
00:42:58I promise you guys, I wouldn't put you through it this time if I wasn't.
00:43:04Well, I think you made a fine choice, Bolt.
00:43:06Thanks, Dad.
00:43:08She asked me to marry her.
00:43:09Marry her?
00:43:11You're joking, right?
00:43:14No.
00:43:15No, I'm not.
00:43:16Wow, I am in awe at the power of you.
00:43:18I mean, to actually get her to ask you, that's...
00:43:20That's something.
00:43:22Thanks, Charlie.
00:43:23Are you sure about this, buddy? I mean, you did say yes, right?
00:43:29As crazy as it sounds, yes.
00:43:33Yes, I said yes.
00:43:34I mean, it was like you had found the one.
00:43:39Yeah.
00:43:41Yeah, I guess so.
00:43:42Okay, look, it may seem all dreamy now,
00:43:44but wait until you get cold feet, man.
00:43:46No, I don't think that's gonna happen.
00:43:47You know why?
00:43:49When I think about marrying this girl,
00:43:53I feel the happiest I've ever been.
00:43:57All right, I gotta say it, I gotta say it.
00:43:59I am impressed.
00:44:00I mean, it's one thing to make a bet that you can get her to say yes,
00:44:03but to get her to ask you, that is something.
00:44:06Although, it still doesn't change the fact that you forfeited, right?
00:44:08I mean, you did call the bet off.
00:44:09Yeah, I did. I called the bet off.
00:44:10All right, then my hat is off to you.
00:44:12We have a bachelor party to plan.
00:44:14Oh, yeah.
00:44:15I'm the better man.
00:44:29I'm off.
00:44:32So, you tell Mike yet?
00:44:36I forgot.
00:44:39I'm gonna tell him as soon as I get back from the tailors.
00:44:44You sure you wanna wear the same dress?
00:44:46Isn't that, like, bad luck or something?
00:44:49Relax, Viv.
00:44:50I'm taking it to Mario to get him ideas to make my perfect dress.
00:44:56Same dress.
00:44:57Ew.
00:44:59Just the girl I came to see.
00:45:01Mike, I was actually just coming to see you.
00:45:05I'm a guest. You were gonna tell me the good news?
00:45:07How did you...
00:45:08I heard.
00:45:10Mike, I wanted to tell you myself.
00:45:12In fact, I was just gonna drop off my dress and...
00:45:14He bet on you, Jess.
00:45:16What?
00:45:17Just like his car, he threw you into the pot.
00:45:21What are you talking about?
00:45:23Him and his buddies.
00:45:24They made a bet that you would say yes to his proposal.
00:45:30Wow.
00:45:31Mike, it's not funny, okay?
00:45:33If you're trying to get me to break it off with Adrian...
00:45:35I'm not lying, Jessi. I heard them.
00:45:38They were talking about what a man Aidan was
00:45:40for not just winning the bet, but getting you to ask him.
00:45:45I don't believe you.
00:45:49Believe it. He's a player.
00:45:51He played you right from the start.
00:46:05Hey.
00:46:07Your mom's been trying to get a hold of you.
00:46:09She wants to know if you want cornflour, blue or robin's egg for the linens.
00:46:12I don't even know what robin's egg is.
00:46:14I thought she was talking about food.
00:46:17Oh, no, I'm not supposed to see the dress.
00:46:19That's bad luck.
00:46:22So is betting on the bride.
00:46:25Don't you think?
00:46:28What?
00:46:30So tell me.
00:46:31Did you actually have to go through with the wedding to win,
00:46:34or just get me to say yes?
00:46:40I don't know what you're talking about.
00:46:44I know about the bet, Aidan.
00:46:51Jessi, it's not like that.
00:46:53No?
00:46:54So you didn't have a bet?
00:47:01I did, but I called it off.
00:47:05Jessi, look, I didn't say yes in order to win.
00:47:08I said yes because I wanted to.
00:47:10Because I love you.
00:47:13You know what? You're right.
00:47:17You do have one hell of a poker face.
00:47:31I love you.
00:47:53Jessi?
00:47:56Hey.
00:47:57Tridge!
00:47:59Hi.
00:48:00This is my fiance, Patty.
00:48:02Oh, I didn't know that you were...
00:48:05We just got engaged. At the theater.
00:48:09Oh. At the theater.
00:48:12Yeah.
00:48:17I'll be sure to send you an invite.
00:48:22It was nice seeing you again, Jessi.
00:48:24You too. Have a good night.
00:48:26You too.
00:48:27Okay.
00:48:28Bye.
00:48:29Bye.
00:49:00Hey, sweetheart.
00:49:02Hey.
00:49:08How's it going?
00:49:13I don't know.
00:49:17You know, your mom had quite the reputation before I met her.
00:49:22Yeah?
00:49:23In fact, I was not the only one.
00:49:26Yeah?
00:49:27In fact, I was not the first one that proposed to her.
00:49:31Three other guys had tried before me, and she turned them all down.
00:49:36Drove your grandmother crazy.
00:49:39But Susie refused to settle.
00:49:43I thought I was gonna end up just like those other guys,
00:49:45with a bruised ego and a broken heart.
00:49:49But, uh, I was okay with that.
00:49:53You know why?
00:49:56Because if she didn't feel the way I felt,
00:49:59then I didn't want to be with someone who was just settling.
00:50:05I deserved more.
00:50:08Yeah.
00:50:12There's a lot of people you can live with.
00:50:16There's only one you can't live without.
00:50:20Hmm?
00:50:26Hmm.
00:50:39Hey.
00:50:41Figured I'd find you here.
00:50:43Hi.
00:50:45So, I wanted to tell you that you were right about Aiden.
00:50:53The engagement's off.
00:50:54Look, Jessie, I don't blame you for what happened.
00:50:57I mean, we all gotta test the pipes before we can be sure which way the water's flowing.
00:51:04I'm just glad it flowed back to me.
00:51:10It didn't.
00:51:13Huh?
00:51:16Things didn't work out with me and Aiden, but...
00:51:21I can't marry you.
00:51:25You deserve someone that is gonna love you as much as you love them.
00:51:40Hey, Jessie.
00:51:44You deserve it, too.
00:51:54I know.
00:52:04Hey.
00:52:06What are you still doing?
00:52:09Look, forget about work. It's two days before Christmas.
00:52:12Besides, the vegan was asking about you.
00:52:17I'll just do a minute.
00:52:19Alright, but don't keep her waiting.
00:52:21She's saving the dance for you, buddy.
00:52:25Okay.
00:52:31Me and the guys have been talking about forming a band this year.
00:52:33Yeah, like, just jamming on weekends, whatever.
00:52:35Maybe play a gig. I don't know. It's sort of like a freestyle rap reggae.
00:52:38Excuse me. Do you know where I'd find Aiden McTiernan?
00:52:41Oh, yeah. He's just a second cubicle over.
00:52:43Oh, thank you. Excuse me.
00:52:45So, anywho, we are probably gonna be looking for some backup dancers if you guys are into it.
00:52:50Do you go-go?
00:52:54There you are.
00:52:56Mrs. Patterson, what are you doing here?
00:52:57Oh, I'm just checking my instincts.
00:53:00Look, I saw the way you looked at Jessie the other night.
00:53:03And believe me, after three engagements, my radar is pretty astute.
00:53:08Now, do you really want to marry Jessie?
00:53:10Yes. Yes, of course I do.
00:53:12Well, great. Then let's plan a wedding.
00:53:14How? Jessie, she doesn't have anything to do with me, and I don't blame her.
00:53:20The band. Did you win?
00:53:23No. Once I realized how much I cared for her, I called it off.
00:53:30What's the best way that you can show Jessie that you meant it when you said yes,
00:53:34and that that meant nothing at all?
00:53:39Marry her.
00:53:43Marry her!
00:53:44Marry her.
00:53:49There you go.
00:53:51Lincoln!
00:53:55Santa's gonna bring you a good home, buddy.
00:54:01And Jake!
00:54:15You think Dad will be wearing his cheesy Christmas sweater?
00:54:18I don't know. He was looking pretty snug last year.
00:54:23Merry Christmas, girls!
00:54:24Dad!
00:54:26Look at you!
00:54:27Snazzy!
00:54:28Right this way. Come on in.
00:54:30What happened to the sweater?
00:54:31Oh, somebody hid it behind the furnace.
00:54:33Now, I will take these. You girls just go right on into the living room, please.
00:54:41Reverend Macy?
00:54:45What are you doing here?
00:54:52Mom?
00:54:56What's, uh...
00:54:58What's going on?
00:55:02Dad.
00:55:04Okay, if this is some sort of weird intervention...
00:55:07Jessie.
00:55:10Jessie, wait.
00:55:14There's something I need to tell you.
00:55:16Here? Now?
00:55:19On Christmas Day?
00:55:23You already admitted that you used me as a pawn.
00:55:27You're right.
00:55:30I did choose you as the one to place my bet on.
00:55:33And even though it was a lousy bet to place, I don't regret it.
00:55:37Because I never would have met you.
00:55:40Jessie.
00:55:42You made me realize that I'd rather face my fear of commitment than be without you.
00:55:48Because you're right.
00:55:51When you truly love someone,
00:55:53the thought of spending the rest of your life with them should make you feel the happiest you've ever been.
00:55:59And that's exactly how I felt the day you proposed to me.
00:56:10I just...
00:56:12hope that you feel the same.
00:56:20Jessie Patterson.
00:56:25Will you marry me?
00:56:34I...
00:56:36I...
00:56:37I...
00:56:40Jake?
00:56:41Hey, boy.
00:56:45You adopted Jake?
00:56:50I figured two troublemakers are better off together than alone.
00:57:06Yes.
00:57:10You just said yes?
00:57:11Yes. She said yes.
00:57:14Yes, that you'll marry me?
00:57:17Yes.
00:57:19I will marry you.
00:57:22She said yes!
00:57:23Yes!
00:57:24Yes!
00:57:25Yes!
00:57:26Yes!
00:57:27Yes!
00:57:28Yes!
00:57:29Yes!
00:57:30Yes!
00:57:31Yes!
00:57:33Yes!
00:57:35I love you.
00:57:47It's beautiful.
00:58:04I love you.
00:58:21Let's just get right to it.
00:58:24Do you, Aiden McTiernan, take Jessie Patterson to be your lawfully wedded wife?
00:58:31To love her and honor her so long as you both shall live?
00:58:41I do.
00:58:43Do you, Jessie Patterson, take Aiden McTiernan to be your lawfully wedded husband?
00:58:48To love him and honor him so long as you both shall live?
00:59:01I do.
00:59:03I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:59:05You may now kiss the bride.
00:59:30We did it.
00:59:32We did.
00:59:34We went all in.
00:59:37Merry Christmas.
00:59:41Merry Christmas, my husband.
