It was stupid,inexcusable,and the second it happened,I stopped You bring all your first dates heredon't you?
You're not the first woman i've ever brought- you are another charming,intelligent louse I am guessing that joe did not just come on to you out of the blue Just because you're a whore, it doesn't mean that I am You think that maybe she can stay here while things, like,sort of calm down?
You're welcome here.You're family Would you give me the opportunity to try to make it up to you?
Will you marry me?
Tommy,I need to know how many of them are actually coming All of them,except for joe At least,that's what i've been told You make them sound like an invading army Well,given everything that's happened I'm slightly concerned about them all being here with our potential investors I mean,the combination of the walker family with endless amounts of alcohol Okay,I get it It's really,really funny Look,holly,they're not teenagers at a kegger,all right?
This.This is our opening.They'll,uh,they'lbehave Right in the ribs They're kicking?
Yeah,both of them It's the orange the sugar makes them nuts Tommy,I know that this never would have happened without you and your father Your family comes with the package All right,look,there's a lot of things you can say about my family Bottom line--when it counts,they show up I'm not going So you're sending a strawberry shortcake as your proxy,or is this for me?
I just can't right now Between work and the disaster that is my marriage, things couldn't get any worse,except of course if joe and I were to spend a cozy weekend at a vineyard where everybody knows that he tongued my 20-year-old half sister All rightWell,you know,sarah, you don't have to go, and you don't have to justify it to anybody Everybody is going to understand,even tommy Even mom?
Well,you know,don't worry about mom This is about you Now how are you?
I've been baking,and i never bake So you tell me You're bad.It's bad He keeps wanting to talk about it,and I just can't hear it And it's not even about the kiss anymore Things have been said.
I don't know how to go back I'm too scared to move forward It's just like we're stuck in relationship purgatory, which feels more like relationship hell God Oh,sarah,I'm so,so sorry Is there anything that I can do?
Just keep my cake level Wheels up for D.C.Tomorrow at 7:00 You're coming with Consider yourself packed Senator Sarah What happens in D.C.?
Uh,nothing Kitty,if you can't deliver the cake,ju tell me No,no,no,no,sarah I am your bearer of all things pastry Thank you.Okay,then Well,um,I will leave you two to discuss politics or Just stop Whatever it is you talk about.Senator Thanks for coming by What was that all about?
Oh,I can't go to D.C.
I have a family obligation To deliver a cake?
Well Okay,maybe I need to be more obvious than lingerie I'm going back to vote in favor of scol vouchers, and I'm going to have plenty of time to discuss the other important issues of the day like the little question you popped Oh,yeah.Wow "Wow"?
Well,yeah I mean,it was a really big question,and I You know,I just think I think that my timing was a little off Kitty,what are you trying to say?
My sister's marriage is falling apart, and I just don't think that this is the time to be flashing some big rock in her face "Flashing some big rock in her face"?
It's a figure of speech That is--no,it's not literal.It's an expression That's a little presumptuous,don't you think?
It's--no,it's literal Especially considering you're the one who asked me Yes,I did You asked me to marry you,and now you are completely taking it back I'm not It's--it's just that I want things to calm down a little bit with sarah,that's all So you're putting a pin in your proposal?
For how long?
Oh,you are being the worst kind of politician Okay,look,spend the time with your family, and we'll talk when I get back I need you to take the cake Why,because you have a business trip with your boyfriend?
Well,yeah We've--we've got some very important issues to deal with,like work issues Really?
Is it about global warming?
That's fantas-- oh,no Wrong political party Are you gonna resolve the war in iraq?
That's fant-- oh,again,wrong political party So honestly,anything short of that isn't as important as the opening of our brother's new business What about the sarah factor in all this?
Have you considerethat?
I mean,think about it Holly has basically ruined her life,and we're supposed to show up and--and play all "nicey-nice"?
And--oh,I mean,I know it's for tommy and all,but I really don't feel comfortable being there Well,now that you say it like that, is it okay for me to go?
Yeah.Oh,yeah Why?
It's totally different because,um, because,uh,you're a brother Yeah.You're a boy I love you Here Would you please just take it?
Look,I just got out of rehab I'm not going to a vineyard by myself Okay,look,kitty and i just think it's a little unfair to sarah if we go and you're not in the same pickle as- pickle?
Okay,fine,whatever.Jam Look,you're friends with rebecca, so just consider yourself switzerland Okay,look,becca's not going.
She doesn't even talk to holly anymore, and you are nuts if you think mom's gonna let you out of this What's mom gonna do,call a family meeting and force us all to go?
Now listen,I understand if you don't want to go You have to listen to your heart, especially you,sarah I meanit's gonna be hard on tommy, but he's dealt with disappointment before Mom,what am I supposed to do with that?
All right,look,i'll go if you guys go,but I'm not showing up alone with mom and a strawberry shortcake That seems very You know,I resent that You were just about to say "gay No,I wasn't Yes,you were No,I wasn't.I wasn't You're such a child Hey,boys Listen,why did you all have to turn this into a federal case?
I was trying to bow out gracefully Because we're trying to support you You're making things worse Sarah,I told you you don't have to go You say that,mom,but I know you're gonna say how I didn't support tommy She's the one who convinced us this is what you'd want I brought you a cake to deliver,kitty I didn't ask you to start a national movement Listen,everyone,just stop it Please go I'm totally fine with it,okay?
All right.All right,this is the thing The thing is,is that it's-- well,the--the truth is, is that it's a really bad weekend for me,too Oh,for you Oh,I thought you were doing it out of compsion for me Well,I was.I was,but I still have to go to washington with the senator It's--it's-- it's really important Kitty,he's your boyfriend,his name is bob, and you see him every day Well,what happened to following our hearts,mother?
I was referring to sarah's heart,not your heart Not- mom,mom,it's top secret Oh,oh,it's not It's not top secret,but it--yes,it's,uh,it is It's a very sensitive national security thing,and i'm-- I'm sorry,that's all I can say about it I'm sorry."Thing"?
That's why mccallister gave you a bag of lingerie to take with you?

Of the free world hangs in the balance Apparently,that's not the only thing that's hangin' Oh,that's funny,justin When did you get to be so funny?

I have nothing to say to you.
Hey,get off me!
I told you I'm sorry.
I'm sick to death about it.
Look,I am n gonna sit here and pretend nothing happened,all right?
You came on to a girl half your age,dude, which is completely pathetic considering she's your wife's half sister.
It's disgusting,joe.
What's going on here?
Nothing.
Look,I gave you a chance to do the right thing,and you didn'T.
Excuse me?
Sarah,just let it go.
No,joe,I won't let it go.
Look,I knew about the whole thing,okay?
Rebecca told me,and all I did was ask him to be honest with you.
That was not your place.
Look,I was--I was crazy.
I shouldn't be here.
Joe,please don'T.
Look,I'm just making things worse.
Look,this is about tommy,not me.
I'll see you at home.
Okay.
Fine.
You happy now?
you know,you're supposed to taste it and then pour the rest into the spittoon.
I know,but that would mean I'd have a good chance of remaining sober, and today that's not an option.
Oh,okay.
Well,one should never drink alone.
Sarah,can I talk to you for a second?
Not unless you want your head handed to you on a platter.
No,no.
None for him.
He's a friend of bill'S.
He's no friend of mine.
Look,will you just listen to me?
I'm sorry,okay?
I got carried away.
I was upset.
He was just trying to stand up for you,sarah.
You know,I can stand up for myself,stin.
Not if we keep this pace.
None of us will.
Hey,hey,hey,hey!
Justin!
It's grape juice.
Relax.
Oh,god,that scared me.
Fill her up.
Excuse me.
Can everybody hear me?
yeah.
Good.
Well,holly and i would like to welcome everybody here today.
For those of you who haven't seen my wife julia,we're,uh,we're expecting twins.
thank you.
And the thing about becoming a father...
is it makes you think about your own dad.
Our father wasn't perfect.
Maybe it came with the territory.
I don't know.
But before we were born,he planted an orchard,just 200 trees, and pretty soon it turned into this thriving business.
We're naming the new vineyard walker landing because it's his vision that we're celebrating today.
So to fathers and children and a great new year of wine.
Cheers.
cheers!
mazel tov.
nice.
well done.
Put your nose in it.
What do you think?
it's very delicate for a cabernet.
Cabernet blend.
We like to mix things up around here.
Pardon me.
Actually,I don't mean to disagree,but I don't think it's delicate at all.
I think it's heavy-handed.
Well,then why don't you try the white wine,saul?
You might find it less threatening.
Red wine doesn't threaten me,holly,except when it's tannic and pushy.
Saul.
What?
Well,perhaps I should rephrase it.
I ink it's bad wine.
I think it's immature and inappropriate.
Funny,I find it a bit overbearing.
Would you excuse us a moment?
Sure.
Why are you being so rude to him?
Nora,I...
I don't like him,that's all.
You don't like-- guys,would you ask him to stop acting ke a den mother?
Or--or,you know,who wants another glass of pinot with me?
Me!
Could we have more pinot all around,please?
Thank you.
Guys,stop it.
Pull it together.
You're making a scene.
I have investors here.
Great speech,dude.
Killed 'em.
Thanks.
Look,dinner's ready.
Let's go.
Wait,wait.
Where's kitty?
Mm,forget it.
She's whacked out on painkillers,dreaming of her pending nuptials with mccallis-- her what?
I didn't say that.
Pending what?
What was that?
You know,I'm hungry.
We should eat.
I'm starving.
whoa,whoa,whoa.
no,no,no.
Yeah.
I don't know why I say these things.
It's like I have tourette'S.
there's gonna be a wedding?
Oh,my gosh.
She didn't tell me there's gonna be a wedding.
I'm so excited!
There's gonna be a wedding!
That's just choice,mom.
You are delirious over the fact that kitty's gonna marry a republican she's known for three months, but you're prepared to write off my husband of ten years.
That's just lovely.
It'so lovely!
Sarah,I-- nora?
Yes?
Dinner's being served.
Would you like to join me?
Uh,you know,I'm right in the middle of something right now.
I'll be with you in a moment,okay?
I'll meet you in there.
Okay,good.
Can we just go eat,please?
You guys go,okay?
I'm drinking my dinner.
Sarah,stop.
I think we all need to talk now.
This is great,just great.
We think this cabernet is robust and full-bodied, but,of course,we want the vineyard to do the talking.
Can the vineyard write a check?
you okay,dear?
Yeah,they're just kicking.
It's the garlic.
Remember with our first,stanley?
Everything had to be bland,bland,bland.
How you doing down there?
I'm doing great.
And you?
This is silly.
Why am I yelling at you over all these people and these empty chairs?
Do you mind?
Please do.
You know,I'm fine with eating solo, but I was starting to get flashbacks of my high school cafeteria years.
somehow I doubt you ever lacked a lunch date.
Do you know that I have been dying to take a walk all day?
How would you feel about giving me a tour of the vineyard?
I don't know what I feel about it.
I mean,I certainly wouldn't want to leave any potential investors.
they're so blotto,they'll never know you've gone.
I know that you're angry with my husband.
I think "angry" is an understatement.
Well,I have to say,sarah,in our defense,we do feel betrayed.
But this isn't about you,saul,or any of you.
W-what are you gonna do,sarah?
I mean,that--that's-- that's the question.
I don't know,justin.
Now is that so hard for you all to understand?
Now I know that you all think you're doing this noble thing,punishing him, but I have to sort all this out,and all I can hear are your voices in my head.
Solease just exercise some self-control.
Like--like kevin with kitty and mccallister.
Aw,no,no,no.
Come on,that's-- that's totally different.
You know,mccallister's a public figure.
They're--they're there to be dumped on.
Yeah,but he's gonna marry kitty now.
Yeah,you know,which no one is supposed to know about,okay?
All right.
Especially you.
What's that supposed to mean,especially me?
Wait,you guys don't think I've got the strength to handle good news about a sibling?
Come on,let's not generalize.
It was just kitty,okay?
Oh,god.
Where are the boundaries in this family?
Listen,I can live with your good news, but you're gonna have to live with my bad news or learn to shut up!
Okay?
Okay.
Okay,sarah.
We will.
I can put up with your bad news.
Great.
Are--are we done here?
Yes.
Good.
Let's go eat dinner now.
Let's go.
Move.
yes,let's go.
All right,everyone.
Justin,walk,walk.
Come on,kevin.
Come on,guys.
Seriously.
Let's go.
sarah.
Everyone.
Saul,come on.
This is the kind of night that poets dream about.
he only reason for being alive is being fully alive."
D.H.
Lawrence said that.
I couldn't agree more.
I could stay out here forever.
Thank you,mister.
My pleasure,madam. "
you came to me on a summer's night, "and from your beam,you made my dream."
'Cause we love you,mr.
Moonlight."
Oh.Was that D.H.
Lawrence,too?
It's the beatles.
why don't we just keep walking?
hey,sorry we're late.
We had to attend to a little,uh,family business.
Where's holly?
I think she took a walk.
Oh,yeah,she wanted to show the professor her grapes.
I need my bag.
Where've you been?
Went for a walk.
With holly,all this time?
Yeah.
oh,I feel like I went to the prom,and my date ditched me for another girl.
To be fair,nora,your interpretation of "date" is a little strange.
You basically ignored me all day.
I didn't ignore you.
I was dealing with a family situation.
I didn't know where things stood between us.
You give mixed signals.
Mixed signals?
I invited you away for the weekend.
Everyone knows what that means--"the weekend."
And even if it wasn't happening for you, even if something switched off in you between L.A.
And here, did you have to go off with her?
Did something happen?
did something happen?
we kissed.
I'm sorry,nora.
It was--it was a spontaneous connection.
A spontaneous connection.
is that what you think that was?
well,that sucked.
No,it didn't,tommy.
Come on.
Dude,I'm sorry,man.
I feel like I started all this.
I just couldn't help it.
I mean,if you're not happy with your life,you do something about it,right?
Y-you get a job.
You don't cheat on our freakin' sister.
Whoa.
It's over,okay?
Just drink your juice.
I get it.
I mean,it kind of feels like now that dad's not around, it's our place to do the whole male protective thing,you know?
Dad would've been really proud of you tonight,tommy.
yeah.
Thanks,man.
Oh,absolutely.
Look at us.
We're drinking a very decent walker landing pinot...
All because of you.
yeah.
I don't know why I'm surprised.
what?
What?
You remember the lemonade stand?
yeah,you raked it in.
Do you remember that?
Yeah,he raked it in because you both gave up.
You drank all of your lemonade.
He was out there for hours.
You knew exactly what the high traffic hours were.
You knew where to put the lemonade stand.
You were already a C.E.O.,Tommy.
You did good,bro.
Yeah.
Thanks,man.
To walker landing.
To walker landing.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Chee.
Salud.
Thank you very much.
It was great.
Really appreciate it.
you certainly got your money's worth tonight,didn't you?
Excuse me?
It seems you managed to have quite a good time,everything told.
Well,you know what they say�� if a hostess can't enjoy herself,what's the point of throwing a party?
My god,you're smug.
I think that's the thing I dislike about you the most.
I am so sick of your self-righteousness,nora.
I don't even listen to you anymore.
Oh,look at you.
Oh,look at you.
You're so proud of yourself,aren't you?
Making out in a vineyard.
There was nothing to be proud of.
It was just a kiss.
These things happen.
Just ask sarah.
Don't you dare bring my daughter into this.
You know,at least the two of us were consenting adults.
One more word,and I will rip the tongue right out of your mouth!
When I think of what you've done to her,it makes me sick!
What I've done to her?
Yes!
Guys!
What--are you okay?
Yes,yes,fine.
We just need a little privacy.
Yeah,well,could you keep it down?
There's investors out there,mom.
Saul,would you close the door,please?
close the door.
I forgot about that chapter,when you had your paws all over my brother.
You seem to be obsessed with the men in my life.
You can't get over the fact that william treated you like a hooker.
He paid you off with a house,whereas he loved me and mine like family.
Family?
Yes.
Your family is insane.
Why do you think he always wanted to come to my place?
He was stifled by you,nora,bored out of his mind!
You should have seen the smile on his face when he came through my door.
Why did he always come home to me then?
Even your own daughter would rather sleep at my house.
Yes,because you've poisoned her mind,you and your whole family!
Oh,no.
She had nothing but disdain for you fromhe moment we met her.
I don't want to rub it in,but rebecca begged me to let her stay.
Rebecca is none of your business!
Your only job was to let me know where she was!
I'd sooner call social services than I'd send her back to you!
Guys,you're screaming.
All of you,out!
Now!
You are a car wreck.
I'd feel sorry for you if you weren't so vicious.
You spent your entire life living off of other people's money!
Everhing I have,I have earned.
You have not worked a single day in your entire life.
What do you have to show for yourself,little miss pasadena,a box full of recipes?
Oh,holly?
I can't believE...
you did that!
This dress is couture!
I'm sure it's been stained before.
Is that all you've got,huh?
Oh,lettuce!
Lettuce!
That's really scary.
Oh!
How very scary.
you know what I miss most about him?
his hair.
He had great hair.
yeah.
I lived apart from him so much...
that sometimes I think I'm just waiting for him to sneak away from your house and come and see me.
holly...
I'm gonna tell you something you don't want to hear.
You have to let him go.
I did.
Can I say something that you don't want to hear?
Yeah.
You don't want my daughter living in your house.
oh,god.
Where am I?
Kevin?
Kevin?
what time is it?
It's time to get up and go,and look,I've made you a lovely pot of tea.
Tea?
Yeah.
Let's go.
Who are you?
Kitty.
How long have I been sleeping?
Since about 3:00 yesterday afternoon.
oh,my god.
You're kidding me.
Are you serious?
Kevin,did somebody slip me a roofie?
Uh,you kinda slipped yourself one or three.
Anyway,no time for details.
Let's jump in the shower,and then we'll hit the road.
Kevin,come on,you got-- well,what--what did I miss?
nothing.
Just,you know,a lot of drinking.
The usual.
you're conscious!
I'm gonna go pack.
Sarah,please,I feel like rip van winkle here,and kevin is being weird.
You just-- you have to tell me what happened.
Not much.
Apparently,you're engaged.
Ugh.
I'm not.
I'm not.
Well,not yet.
It's--ohh.
And who told you any-- oh,kevin.
Kevin.
Of course,kevin,and I don't even remember telling him.
Kitty,you never have to filter your good news no matter what is going on in my life.
The good stuff's so rare.
You gotta share the wealth.
I promise I will give you all the gory details if and.
When.
Hey,how was your cake?
Oh,it turned out so much better than I expected.
you're up early.
I never was much of a late sleeper.
Ah.
Nora,I feel really badly.
Well...
I should have known what i was getting into,dating you.
A person alwaytells you exactly who they are from the very first moment you meet them, and when I first met you,you re sleeping with an undergrad.
Right.
Yeah.
I hope that I didn't ruin your entire weekend.
No.
Actually,it did turn out to be "the" weekend,just a very different kind of "the."
What--the weekend we ended things before they really began?
No,the weekend I learned to trust my instincts.
No offense.
None taken.
Uh,nora?
Yeah?
I realize that was a breakup speech,but,uh,how am I gonna get home?
Mark,this isn't high school.
I'll drive you home.
You can sit in the back.
Thank you.
I'm sorry it got a little...you know.
What,are you kidding?
Best wine I ever tasted was grown by a man on a rooftop in brooklyn.
You gotta be crazy to make good wine,and clearly,you guys are gonna do just fine.
Thank you.
Drive safe.
Bye.
oh,my god.
I can't believe we pulled it off.
Congratulations,sweetie.

Are you okay?
It's normal third trimester-- oh,my god!

It's julia.
Come on,hurry up!

My water just broke.

Call the paramedics and get me some clean towels.
No,don't go!
Don't-- honey,honey,I'll be right back.

I know.
I know,sweetie.
Can you sit?
Can you sit?
Can you sit?
Oh,my god.
Okay,good.
They're barely 29 weeks.
They're not ready yet!
Just look at me and breathe.
Just look at me and breathe.
Oh,sweetheart.
We are going to make beautiful wine together You do know that your husband made a pass at rebecca?
It was stupid,inexcusable,and the second it happened,I stopped You bring all your first dates heredon't you?
You're not the first woman i've ever brought- you are another charming,intelligent louse I am guessing that joe did not just come on to you out of the blue Just because you're a whore, it doesn't mean that I am You think that maybe she can stay here while things, like,sort of calm down?
You're welcome here.You're family Would you give me the opportunity to try to make it up to you?
Will you marry me?
Tommy,I need to know how many of them are actually coming All of them,except for joe At least,that's what i've been told You make them sound like an invading army Well,given everything that's happened I'm slightly concerned about them all being here with our potential investors I mean,the combination of the walker family with endless amounts of alcohol Okay,I get it It's really,really funny Look,holly,they're not teenagers at a kegger,all right?
This.This is our opening.They'll,uh,they'lbehave Right in the ribs They're kicking?
Yeah,both of them It's the orange the sugar makes them nuts Tommy,I know that this never would have happened without you and your father Your family comes with the package All right,look,there's a lot of things you can say about my family Bottom line--when it counts,they show up I'm not going So you're sending a strawberry shortcake as your proxy,or is this for me?
I just can't right now Between work and the disaster that is my marriage, things couldn't get any worse,except of course if joe and I were to spend a cozy weekend at a vineyard where everybody knows that he tongued my 20-year-old half sister All rightWell,you know,sarah, you don't have to go, and you don't have to justify it to anybody Everybody is going to understand,even tommy Even mom?
Well,you know,don't worry about mom This is about you Now how are you?
I've been baking,and i never bake So you tell me You're bad.It's bad He keeps wanting to talk about it,and I just can't hear it And it's not even about the kiss anymore Things have been said.
I don't know how to go back I'm too scared to move forward It's just like we're stuck in relationship purgatory, which feels more like relationship hell God Oh,sarah,I'm so,so sorry Is there anything that I can do?
Just keep my cake level Wheels up for D.C.Tomorrow at 7:00 You're coming with Consider yourself packed Senator Sarah What happens in D.C.?
Uh,nothing Kitty,if you can't deliver the cake,ju tell me No,no,no,no,sarah I am your bearer of all things pastry Thank you.Okay,then Well,um,I will leave you two to discuss politics or Just stop Whatever it is you talk about.Senator Thanks for coming by What was that all about?
Oh,I can't go to D.C.
I have a family obligation To deliver a cake?
Well Okay,maybe I need to be more obvious than lingerie I'm going back to vote in favor of scol vouchers, and I'm going to have plenty of time to discuss the other important issues of the day like the little question you popped Oh,yeah.Wow "Wow"?
Well,yeah I mean,it was a really big question,and I You know,I just think I think that my timing was a little off Kitty,what are you trying to say?
My sister's marriage is falling apart, and I just don't think that this is the time to be flashing some big rock in her face "Flashing some big rock in her face"?
It's a figure of speech That is--no,it's not literal.It's an expression That's a little presumptuous,don't you think?
It's--no,it's literal Especially considering you're the one who asked me Yes,I did You asked me to marry you,and now you are completely taking it back I'm not It's--it's just that I want things to calm down a little bit with sarah,that's all So you're putting a pin in your proposal?
For how long?
Oh,you are being the worst kind of politician Okay,look,spend the time with your family, and we'll talk when I get back I need you to take the cake Why,because you have a business trip with your boyfriend?
Well,yeah We've--we've got some very important issues to deal with,like work issues Really?
Is it about global warming?
That's fantas-- oh,no Wrong political party Are you gonna resolve the war in iraq?
That's fant-- oh,again,wrong political party So honestly,anything short of that isn't as important as the opening of our brother's new business What about the sarah factor in all this?
Have you considerethat?
I mean,think about it Holly has basically ruined her life,and we're supposed to show up and--and play all "nicey-nice"?
And--oh,I mean,I know it's for tommy and all,but I really don't feel comfortable being there Well,now that you say it like that, is it okay for me to go?
Yeah.Oh,yeah Why?
It's totally different because,um, because,uh,you're a brother Yeah.You're a boy I love you Here Would you please just take it?
Look,I just got out of rehab I'm not going to a vineyard by myself Okay,look,kitty and i just think it's a little unfair to sarah if we go and you're not in the same pickle as- pickle?
Okay,fine,whatever.Jam Look,you're friends with rebecca, so just consider yourself switzerland Okay,look,becca's not going.
She doesn't even talk to holly anymore, and you are nuts if you think mom's gonna let you out of this What's mom gonna do,call a family meeting and force us all to go?
Now listen,I understand if you don't want to go You have to listen to your heart, especially you,sarah I meanit's gonna be hard on tommy, but he's dealt with disappointment before Mom,what am I supposed to do with that?
All right,look,i'll go if you guys go,but I'm not showing up alone with mom and a strawberry shortcake That seems very You know,I resent that You were just about to say "gay No,I wasn't Yes,you were No,I wasn't.I wasn't You're such a child Hey,boys Listen,why did you all have to turn this into a federal case?
I was trying to bow out gracefully Because we're trying to support you You're making things worse Sarah,I told you you don't have to go You say that,mom,but I know you're gonna say how I didn't support tommy She's the one who convinced us this is what you'd want I brought you a cake to deliver,kitty I didn't ask you to start a national movement Listen,everyone,just stop it Please go I'm totally fine with it,okay?
All right.All right,this is the thing The thing is,is that it's-- well,the--the truth is, is that it's a really bad weekend for me,too Oh,for you Oh,I thought you were doing it out of compsion for me Well,I was.I was,but I still have to go to washington with the senator It's--it's-- it's really important Kitty,he's your boyfriend,his name is bob, and you see him every day Well,what happened to following our hearts,mother?
I was referring to sarah's heart,not your heart Not- mom,mom,it's top secret Oh,oh,it's not It's not top secret,but it--yes,it's,uh,it is It's a very sensitive national security thing,and i'm-- I'm sorry,that's all I can say about it I'm sorry."Thing"?
That's why mccallister gave you a bag of lingerie to take with you?
Oh,yeah.I can see the fate.
Of the free world hangs in the balance Apparently,that's not the only thing that's hangin' Oh,that's funny,justin When did you get to be so funny?
Kitty,you know what?
Your excuse pales in comparison with me having to spend the whole weekend being watched by the wicked witch of the west Sarah This is a family thing,isn't it?
I-I was just coming to make a sandwich, but i'll come back later You know what?
I'll make you a sandwich in just a few moments Just give us a few moments Okay.Sorry.

I have nothing to say to you.
Hey,get off me!
I told you I'm sorry.
I'm sick to death about it.
Look,I am n gonna sit here and pretend nothing happened,all right?
You came on to a girl half your age,dude, which is completely pathetic considering she's your wife's half sister.
It's disgusting,joe.
What's going on here?
Nothing.
Look,I gave you a chance to do the right thing,and you didn'T.
Excuse me?
Sarah,just let it go.
No,joe,I won't let it go.
Look,I knew about the whole thing,okay?
Rebecca told me,and all I did was ask him to be honest with you.
That was not your place.
Look,I was--I was crazy.
I shouldn't be here.
Joe,please don'T.
Look,I'm just making things worse.
Look,this is about tommy,not me.
I'll see you at home.
Okay.
Fine.
You happy now?
you know,you're supposed to taste it and then pour the rest into the spittoon.
I know,but that would mean I'd have a good chance of remaining sober, and today that's not an option.
Oh,okay.
Well,one should never drink alone.
Sarah,can I talk to you for a second?
Not unless you want your head handed to you on a platter.
No,no.
None for him.
He's a friend of bill'S.
He's no friend of mine.
Look,will you just listen to me?
I'm sorry,okay?
I got carried away.
I was upset.
He was just trying to stand up for you,sarah.
You know,I can stand up for myself,stin.
Not if we keep this pace.
None of us will.
Hey,hey,hey,hey!
Justin!
It's grape juice.
Relax.
Oh,god,that scared me.
Fill her up.
Excuse me.
Can everybody hear me?
yeah.
Good.
Well,holly and i would like to welcome everybody here today.
For those of you who haven't seen my wife julia,we're,uh,we're expecting twins.
thank you.
And the thing about becoming a father...
is it makes you think about your own dad.
Our father wasn't perfect.
Maybe it came with the territory.
I don't know.
But before we were born,he planted an orchard,just 200 trees, and pretty soon it turned into this thriving business.
We're naming the new vineyard walker landing because it's his vision that we're celebrating today.
So to fathers and children and a great new year of wine.
Cheers.
cheers!
mazel tov.
nice.
well done.
Put your nose in it.
What do you think?
it's very delicate for a cabernet.
Cabernet blend.
We like to mix things up around here.
Pardon me.
Actually,I don't mean to disagree,but I don't think it's delicate at all.
I think it's heavy-handed.
Well,then why don't you try the white wine,saul?
You might find it less threatening.
Red wine doesn't threaten me,holly,except when it's tannic and pushy.
Saul.
What?
Well,perhaps I should rephrase it.
I ink it's bad wine.
I think it's immature and inappropriate.
Funny,I find it a bit overbearing.
Would you excuse us a moment?
Sure.
Why are you being so rude to him?
Nora,I...
I don't like him,that's all.
You don't like-- guys,would you ask him to stop acting ke a den mother?
Or--or,you know,who wants another glass of pinot with me?
Me!
Could we have more pinot all around,please?
Thank you.
Guys,stop it.
Pull it together.
You're making a scene.
I have investors here.
Great speech,dude.
Killed 'em.
Thanks.
Look,dinner's ready.
Let's go.
Wait,wait.
Where's kitty?
Mm,forget it.
She's whacked out on painkillers,dreaming of her pending nuptials with mccallis-- her what?
I didn't say that.
Pending what?
What was that?
You know,I'm hungry.
We should eat.
I'm starving.
whoa,whoa,whoa.
no,no,no.
Yeah.
I don't know why I say these things.
It's like I have tourette'S.
there's gonna be a wedding?
Oh,my gosh.
She didn't tell me there's gonna be a wedding.
I'm so excited!
There's gonna be a wedding!
That's just choice,mom.
You are delirious over the fact that kitty's gonna marry a republican she's known for three months, but you're prepared to write off my husband of ten years.
That's just lovely.
It'so lovely!
Sarah,I-- nora?
Yes?
Dinner's being served.
Would you like to join me?
Uh,you know,I'm right in the middle of something right now.
I'll be with you in a moment,okay?
I'll meet you in there.
Okay,good.
Can we just go eat,please?
You guys go,okay?
I'm drinking my dinner.
Sarah,stop.
I think we all need to talk now.
This is great,just great.
We think this cabernet is robust and full-bodied, but,of course,we want the vineyard to do the talking.
Can the vineyard write a check?
you okay,dear?
Yeah,they're just kicking.
It's the garlic.
Remember with our first,stanley?
Everything had to be bland,bland,bland.
How you doing down there?
I'm doing great.
And you?
This is silly.
Why am I yelling at you over all these people and these empty chairs?
Do you mind?
Please do.
You know,I'm fine with eating solo, but I was starting to get flashbacks of my high school cafeteria years.
somehow I doubt you ever lacked a lunch date.
Do you know that I have been dying to take a walk all day?
How would you feel about giving me a tour of the vineyard?
I don't know what I feel about it.
I mean,I certainly wouldn't want to leave any potential investors.
they're so blotto,they'll never know you've gone.
I know that you're angry with my husband.
I think "angry" is an understatement.
Well,I have to say,sarah,in our defense,we do feel betrayed.
But this isn't about you,saul,or any of you.
W-what are you gonna do,sarah?
I mean,that--that's-- that's the question.
I don't know,justin.
Now is that so hard for you all to understand?
Now I know that you all think you're doing this noble thing,punishing him, but I have to sort all this out,and all I can hear are your voices in my head.
Solease just exercise some self-control.
Like--like kevin with kitty and mccallister.
Aw,no,no,no.
Come on,that's-- that's totally different.
You know,mccallister's a public figure.
They're--they're there to be dumped on.
Yeah,but he's gonna marry kitty now.
Yeah,you know,which no one is supposed to know about,okay?
All right.
Especially you.
What's that supposed to mean,especially me?
Wait,you guys don't think I've got the strength to handle good news about a sibling?
Come on,let's not generalize.
It was just kitty,okay?
Oh,god.
Where are the boundaries in this family?
Listen,I can live with your good news, but you're gonna have to live with my bad news or learn to shut up!
Okay?
Okay.
Okay,sarah.
We will.
I can put up with your bad news.
Great.
Are--are we done here?
Yes.
Good.
Let's go eat dinner now.
Let's go.
Move.
yes,let's go.
All right,everyone.
Justin,walk,walk.
Come on,kevin.
Come on,guys.
Seriously.
Let's go.
sarah.
Everyone.
Saul,come on.
This is the kind of night that poets dream about.
he only reason for being alive is being fully alive."
D.H.
Lawrence said that.
I couldn't agree more.
I could stay out here forever.
Thank you,mister.
My pleasure,madam. "
you came to me on a summer's night, "and from your beam,you made my dream."
'Cause we love you,mr.
Moonlight."
Oh.Was that D.H.
Lawrence,too?
It's the beatles.
why don't we just keep walking?
hey,sorry we're late.
We had to attend to a little,uh,family business.
Where's holly?
I think she took a walk.
Oh,yeah,she wanted to show the professor her grapes.
I need my bag.
Where've you been?
Went for a walk.
With holly,all this time?
Yeah.
oh,I feel like I went to the prom,and my date ditched me for another girl.
To be fair,nora,your interpretation of "date" is a little strange.
You basically ignored me all day.
I didn't ignore you.
I was dealing with a family situation.
I didn't know where things stood between us.
You give mixed signals.
Mixed signals?
I invited you away for the weekend.
Everyone knows what that means--"the weekend."
And even if it wasn't happening for you, even if something switched off in you between L.A.
And here, did you have to go off with her?
Did something happen?
did something happen?
we kissed.
I'm sorry,nora.
It was--it was a spontaneous connection.
A spontaneous connection.
is that what you think that was?
well,that sucked.
No,it didn't,tommy.
Come on.
Dude,I'm sorry,man.
I feel like I started all this.
I just couldn't help it.
I mean,if you're not happy with your life,you do something about it,right?
Y-you get a job.
You don't cheat on our freakin' sister.
Whoa.
It's over,okay?
Just drink your juice.
I get it.
I mean,it kind of feels like now that dad's not around, it's our place to do the whole male protective thing,you know?
Dad would've been really proud of you tonight,tommy.
yeah.
Thanks,man.
Oh,absolutely.
Look at us.
We're drinking a very decent walker landing pinot...
All because of you.
yeah.
I don't know why I'm surprised.
what?
What?
You remember the lemonade stand?
yeah,you raked it in.
Do you remember that?
Yeah,he raked it in because you both gave up.
You drank all of your lemonade.
He was out there for hours.
You knew exactly what the high traffic hours were.
You knew where to put the lemonade stand.
You were already a C.E.O.,Tommy.
You did good,bro.
Yeah.
Thanks,man.
To walker landing.
To walker landing.
Cheers.
Cheers.
Chee.
Salud.
Thank you very much.
It was great.
Really appreciate it.
you certainly got your money's worth tonight,didn't you?
Excuse me?
It seems you managed to have quite a good time,everything told.
Well,you know what they say�� if a hostess can't enjoy herself,what's the point of throwing a party?
My god,you're smug.
I think that's the thing I dislike about you the most.
I am so sick of your self-righteousness,nora.
I don't even listen to you anymore.
Oh,look at you.
Oh,look at you.
You're so proud of yourself,aren't you?
Making out in a vineyard.
There was nothing to be proud of.
It was just a kiss.
These things happen.
Just ask sarah.
Don't you dare bring my daughter into this.
You know,at least the two of us were consenting adults.
One more word,and I will rip the tongue right out of your mouth!
When I think of what you've done to her,it makes me sick!
What I've done to her?
Yes!
Guys!
What--are you okay?
Yes,yes,fine.
We just need a little privacy.
Yeah,well,could you keep it down?
There's investors out there,mom.
Saul,would you close the door,please?
close the door.
I forgot about that chapter,when you had your paws all over my brother.
You seem to be obsessed with the men in my life.
You can't get over the fact that william treated you like a hooker.
He paid you off with a house,whereas he loved me and mine like family.
Family?
Yes.
Your family is insane.
Why do you think he always wanted to come to my place?
He was stifled by you,nora,bored out of his mind!
You should have seen the smile on his face when he came through my door.
Why did he always come home to me then?
Even your own daughter would rather sleep at my house.
Yes,because you've poisoned her mind,you and your whole family!
Oh,no.
She had nothing but disdain for you fromhe moment we met her.
I don't want to rub it in,but rebecca begged me to let her stay.
Rebecca is none of your business!
Your only job was to let me know where she was!
I'd sooner call social services than I'd send her back to you!
Guys,you're screaming.
All of you,out!
Now!
You are a car wreck.
I'd feel sorry for you if you weren't so vicious.
You spent your entire life living off of other people's money!
Everhing I have,I have earned.
You have not worked a single day in your entire life.
What do you have to show for yourself,little miss pasadena,a box full of recipes?
Oh,holly?
I can't believE...
you did that!
This dress is couture!
I'm sure it's been stained before.
Is that all you've got,huh?
Oh,lettuce!
Lettuce!
That's really scary.
Oh!
How very scary.
you know what I miss most about him?
his hair.
He had great hair.
yeah.
I lived apart from him so much...
that sometimes I think I'm just waiting for him to sneak away from your house and come and see me.
holly...
I'm gonna tell you something you don't want to hear.
You have to let him go.
I did.
Can I say something that you don't want to hear?
Yeah.
You don't want my daughter living in your house.
oh,god.
Where am I?
Kevin?
Kevin?
what time is it?
It's time to get up and go,and look,I've made you a lovely pot of tea.
Tea?
Yeah.
Let's go.
Who are you?
Kitty.
How long have I been sleeping?
Since about 3:00 yesterday afternoon.
oh,my god.
You're kidding me.
Are you serious?
Kevin,did somebody slip me a roofie?
Uh,you kinda slipped yourself one or three.
Anyway,no time for details.
Let's jump in the shower,and then we'll hit the road.
Kevin,come on,you got-- well,what--what did I miss?
nothing.
Just,you know,a lot of drinking.
The usual.
you're conscious!
I'm gonna go pack.
Sarah,please,I feel like rip van winkle here,and kevin is being weird.
You just-- you have to tell me what happened.
Not much.
Apparently,you're engaged.
Ugh.
I'm not.
I'm not.
Well,not yet.
It's--ohh.
And who told you any-- oh,kevin.
Kevin.
Of course,kevin,and I don't even remember telling him.
Kitty,you never have to filter your good news no matter what is going on in my life.
The good stuff's so rare.
You gotta share the wealth.
I promise I will give you all the gory details if and.
When.
Hey,how was your cake?
Oh,it turned out so much better than I expected.
you're up early.
I never was much of a late sleeper.
Ah.
Nora,I feel really badly.
Well...
I should have known what i was getting into,dating you.
A person alwaytells you exactly who they are from the very first moment you meet them, and when I first met you,you re sleeping with an undergrad.
Right.
Yeah.
I hope that I didn't ruin your entire weekend.
No.
Actually,it did turn out to be "the" weekend,just a very different kind of "the."
What--the weekend we ended things before they really began?
No,the weekend I learned to trust my instincts.
No offense.
None taken.
Uh,nora?
Yeah?
I realize that was a breakup speech,but,uh,how am I gonna get home?
Mark,this isn't high school.
I'll drive you home.
You can sit in the back.
Thank you.
I'm sorry it got a little...you know.
What,are you kidding?
Best wine I ever tasted was grown by a man on a rooftop in brooklyn.
You gotta be crazy to make good wine,and clearly,you guys are gonna do just fine.
Thank you.
Drive safe.
Bye.
oh,my god.
I can't believe we pulled it off.
Congratulations,sweetie.
what?
Are you okay?
It's normal third trimester-- oh,my god!
No.
No,no,no.
This is not-- this is not normal.
Come here.
Come here.
Sit down.
Sit down.
Oh,I think I'm having contractions.
Okay,I'll be right back.
No!
I'll be right back!
Justin.
Just,you have to come right now.
It's julia.
Come on,hurry up!
this can't be happening.
This can't be happening.
Are you okay,julia?
My water just broke.
Okay,tommy,you know what?
Call the paramedics and get me some clean towels.
No,don't go!
Don't-- honey,honey,I'll be right back.
I'm here.
They're not ready yet!
They're not ready yet!
I know.
I know,sweetie.
Can you sit?
Can you sit?
Can you sit?
Oh,my god.
Okay,good.
They're barely 29 weeks.
They're not ready yet!
Just look at me and breathe.
Just look at me and breathe.
Oh,sweetheart.
