"Dear Mr. Reynolds,
"On behalf of the entire
football coaching staff,
I am pleased-to offer you..."
[overlapping]: "...A full
athletic scholarship
to the University of Michigan."
This is huge for us.
"For us"?
Now they want me to play, too?
Asking me is asking you.
I don't go anywhere without you, Abby.
Way I figure,
it's four years of college ball,
then the pros,
and after that,
we move right back here...
and raise a little girl,
who grows up to bean ace travel writer,
like her mom,
sending back stories
from all over the globe.
"Ace Junior."
Wow. You've got it all figured out.
Why?
You have a better plan?
Yeah.
First, we have a girl,
then a boy.
He'll have a rocket for an arm.
He'll run 4.6 in the 40,
just like his dad,
and we'll travel the globe together.
I run a 4.8.
Oh, right.
You're slow.
Oh, you better run!
[laughing]
Come back here.
I'm gonna get you-in the water!
-Stop! -Here we go.
Hey, you want to go for a swim?
No!
-I wanna go for a swim. -No, I don't!
Here we go.
There we go. In the water. Whoa!
Okay, put me down!
Not till you promise you’ll marry me some day.
Put me down and say it again.
Abby Chapman,
will you marry me?
John Reynolds, are you kidding?
Of course, I will!
[both laughing]
Dance with me, Abby.
Always.
You and me. Forever.

It's all on the line, fellas!Let's go!
[crowd cheering]
Ref! Time out! Time out!
[whistle blows]
Kade! Come on, bring it in!
Here we go!
Okay!Come on, Eagles!
You ready, pal?
Yeah, Dad.
-Yeah?- Let's do this.
You've been winning
these all year, big guy.
This one's yours.
Sol, check the line.
They gotta give him time. Make sure.
On it.
-[Sol]: Hey, guys, listen up. -This is it. All right?
The last run for "Reynolds and Reynolds."
What do you say we go outwith a bang?
Let's do it.
Huh? You ready?Go. Come on, go.
-Go! Let's go! -Come on, boys, hustle!
I can't take the stress!
Kade's last football game
and it's coming down to this?
John's got it covered.
Don't you worry, Abby.
He's got it covered.
Strong out there, guys! Come on, now.
Tighten it up!
Let's go, boys! Come on!
Strong on the line, boys!
You know the drill.
Short pass to the wide out.
He's been open all night.
Ready! Set...
Hut!
He's open, he's open!
Go, go!
[Crowd cheering]
Come on, now!
Go, go, go. Come on, boys!
Yeah!
Woo-ho!
[crowd cheering]
Yeah!
Yes!
We did it, buddy. We did it.
Wow, I'm so proud of you. That was amazing!
Good throw, kid! Good throw.
-Thanks, Pop. -I'm proud of ya.
I'm proud of you.
Hey, buddy!
Great job. Great job. Get in there.
Congratulations.
Hey! We did it.
Crazy, right?
Let's go congratulate him.
Nah. Let him have his moment.
His moment? We're family.
This is our moment. Come on.
-[woman laughing] -[John]: See you tomorrow.
-Okay. -Bye.
Good win, Coach!
Couldn't have done better myself.
Thanks. I learned it from the best,
and it helps having the best
quarterback in the state.
Nation. Hey, Coach!
Good game. Congrats.
Thanks.
Kade was something, huh?
Yeah.
I'm gonna get Pops home.
You come when you can.
Well, I mean... - I, I can grab my stuff.
Come with--
No. It's-- It's fine. You celebrate.
I have my car, you have yours.
All right. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Back up.
Picture time. John and Abby.
Right here, where it all began.
Eagles' High School Stadium.
Dad. Dad--
You gotta celebrate these moments.
They're gone too quick.
Would you stand together like
you actually like each other?
Come on!
One, two...
three!
[♪♪]
Hey.
Am I interrupting?
No. I'm just working on
a travel thing for Stan.
It's not a big deal.
Did you need something?
No. No, Pop's making breakfast.
Kade's taking a bath for his sore muscles.
Abby?
John?
I think we should tell them.
Not on the heels of the game.
"Not before school starts."
"Not before the end of the season."
"Not while Nicole’s back for homecoming."
The season's over.
Nicole gets home from school on Sunday.
We'll have a family meeting.
Tell them then.
[♪♪]
[church bell tolling]
[indistinct exchanges]
"All hail the conquering heroes."
They deserve it.
They've done a great job all season.
Oh, I am not complaining.
Those two sold a lot of newspapers
for me this weekend.
Which reminds me, you owe me a review.
The new Thai place.
All right, okay.
How about a 1,200-word pitch
for something that
combines food and travel?
Abby, you know I love your ideas,
but if you can't actually
go to the places--
Have you ever heard of
an armchair traveler?
I've done the food section.
I've been to every restaurant
in this town twice.
-You owe me. -I know.
I'm not some new mom
with two kid sand a football coach husband
anymore.
I'm about to be an empty-nester
and I've got great ideas,
and maybe some time to travel places.
Stan, I need a change.
I'll read it.
Thank you.
As long as the Thai place hits my in-box...
tonight.
All right.
[sighs]
Well, look, I hate to break it up, guys,
but we gotta go.
Yeah, Kade, your dad and I
have an appointment in town.
Why don't you take Pops to lunch?
Oh, you mean I take him
and I pay for it?
Exactly. You guys can go to that sports bar
with the awful burgers.
And the greasy french fries.
And the Bears game! Kick-off in 20.
Thanks, Mom.
Then come back to the house, Kade.
When Nicole gets here,
we're gonna have a family meeting.
All right.
Good thing I'm hungry,
because you're buying.
Cheeseburger, greasy fries,
the Bears game...
[John]: Thanks for seeing us
on a Sunday, Sam.
Are you kidding?
After that college recommendation
you wrote for my son?
I owe you one.
Sit, please.
Abby wrote it.
I just told her what a great kid he was.
She did the rest.
Thank you.
So how can I help?
Estate planning?
Year-end tax advice?
We're, uh...
getting a divorce.
Come on.
You--
John?
Abby?
Well, I don't believe it.
What about counseling?
Yeah, we tried that a couple of years ago.
It worked for awhile.
Okay.
Well, I should say first
that you each should have your own lawyers.
We don’t want that, Sam.
Used to be the two of us against the world,
but...
we've just both been living
parallel lives too long.
John has his team
and, uh, practices, coaching clinics,
film night...
And you used to be there with me.
I had a life, too, things I wanted to do.
You stopped supporting that so long ago.
That's not true!
Yes, it is!
You don't even ask me
about my writing anymore.
When we talk,it's about the kids.
I unload to Beth, you
have your... confidante.
Whatever you want to call her.
Abby,
there's nothing to that.
I know what I saw, John.
You've seen friendship!
And if I do have a friendship
outside of our marriage,
it's because I can't talk to you anymore.
Look, Sam.
We don’t love each other
the way a married couple should.
We don't even talk to each other
the way married people should.
Nicole's at college and Kade's a senior.
So I guess...
there's nothing else
is keeping us together.
You don't want time to think it over?
We're telling the kids this afternoon.
Okay.
I'll draw up the papers.
[♪♪]
[woman]: One, two, three, four...
five, six...
and... work around.
And through.
And wraparound, and...
through...
Beth?
Yeah?Wrap around...
Do you remember how Dad used to mumble
when he was really focused on something?
Yeah. Don't remind me.
That drove me crazy.
You're doing it. Right now.
Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
No.
Great.
Like it's not bad enough
I inherit his thighs,
I have to get his annoying habits, too.
When did you start knitting anyway?
Seems a little domestic for you.
Not anymore.
I have sworn off dating
to become a spinster.
Yeah, right.
You haven't spent a Friday night alone
since college.
Well, that is all gonna change.
Besides, have you seen the pool
of single men in this town?
[scoffs] I might as well join a convent.
There's somebody out there for you.
Well, I hate to break it to you, Big Sis,
but not everyone's life
turns out like yours.
When is Nicole getting here?
I can't stop thinking
about this family meeting.
Uh, she should be here in a few minutes.
Well, that is my cue.
Don't want to interrupt the family meeting!
When did you take up knitting?
Not a peep out of you, Mister.
You're in the doghouse.
What'd I do?
Something about mumbling and big thighs.
[♪♪]
Man, did you see that?
No. Sorry. What'd I miss?
Those eagles.
The female dove to the ground
and the male chased after her,
saved her life.
I read about it in science.
It's a ritual
where the male proves his devotion.
Crazy, right?
Yeah.
Eagles mate for life, did you know that?
For life?
Didn't know that.
[car horn honking]
Hey, come on. Your sister's home.
There she is!
Mom!
Oh! I missed you so much.
-Hi, Grandpa! -Hey, sweetie.
Oh!
-[Nicole]: You look so good.
-Hey! Is that my little girl?
Daddy!
Hi!
Oh!
Hey, little buddy!
Heard about your big game.
Way to go!
You know I'm, like, a foot
taller than you, right?
Oh, you're still my little buddy.
Hey, can you help us out?
-Yeah. -Sweet.
-Hey. - Hey. -How you doing'?
-Hey, man.
I know I should've called first,
but I thought it'd be a nice surprise
to bring Matt!
It's okay, right, Mom? Dad?
Yeah. Hey.
You, uh, you are always welcome here.
Oh, thank you, sir.
I did tell Nicole that
we should call first.
The more,the merrier.
See? Told you!
Best parents ever.
Oh, I told Matt you made lots of food.
Tell me you made--
The famous chocolate cake?
Oh, yeah! Already in the kitchen!
That's for dessert, you guys!
And, besides...
Uh, actually, we are
having a family meeting.
Yeah, what's that all about?
Oh, it's not gonna take too long, is it?
I'm going fishing in, like, an hour.
No. Won't take too long.
Okay, well, let's go!
-Come on in, you! -Get some of that cake!
Oh, you look great.
We can't tell them with Matt here.
I-- I'll take care of it.
Hey.
So, uh, Matt...
we are very happy to have you here,
but we did have this
family meeting planned.
Would you mind giving us a few minutes?
Maybe check out the lake?
Sure thing.
I'll, uh,I'll step outside.
Uh, wait. He should stay.
He's...practically family.
[Kade]: This sounds interesting.
But since you’re all here...
We're getting married!
W-Wow!
Wow.
That is such incredible news.
-Congrats. -[Matt]: Thanks.
I, I know it seems fast,
but after spending
so much time together last summer,
all I could think was
how much I love your daughter...
and how much we want
exactly what you two have.
Family.
Faith.
A love that lasts forever.
[Kade]: I can't believe this!
My sister is getting married.
Now, this is so great.
This calls for a celebration!
Unless the family’s meeting can top that,
I say it's time for cake.
-Go, cake.-Yeah!
Save me a piece.
[exhales, stunned]
Our daughter...
I know.
Did Matt call you or anything?
No. No, he didn't.
Um... ahem--
I'm happy for her, but--
No. I know.
We can't tell them now.
[knocking]
-Hey. -Hey!
You want some help?
Yeah, sure.Come in.
Oh... my little girl.
Getting married.
Wow.
"Wow" as in happy?
Or... "wow" as in--
Wow. [sighs]
Both, maybe.
I'm okay with that.
I mean, Matt, he's...
he seems great, you know?
It's just...
how long have you guys known each other?
Seven... eight months?
Mom, first of all,
we're not getting married tomorrow.
We're gonna wait till summer,
after Matt graduates.
Okay, so a June wedding?
Do you remember what you and Dad told me?
How I should go for my dreams
and how I could do anything I wanted?
Yeah.
Well...
I did that.
I'm on track to graduate with honors,
and...
Matt is my future, Mom.
I know it.
Okay.
I just needed to hear it from you.
Just the two of us. You know?
Yeah. Like all our late-night talks
when I was growing up.
Exactly.
I couldn't have gotten through
high school without you.
Now you're planning a wedding.
We're planning a wedding!
I have no idea where to begin.
Well, you start
with that crazy, wonderful
love you’re feeling right now.
You hold onto it tight.
And if you're lucky,
that's where you'll end up.
Everything I know about love...
I learned from you and Daddy.
[chuckles softly]
[♪♪]
What are we going to do?
I don't know.
Nicole thinks
we are the happiest couple she’s ever met.
Nearly everybody does.
John?
Can you do one last thing for me,
before we end this?
Can we wait to tell them
until after the wedding?
[sighing] Abby...
It's gonna ruin her wedding.
I can't do it.
Maybe they should know.
Go into their wedding
with their eyes wide open.
Don't say that.
Just because we can't make it work
doesn't mean I want our daughter
to have a jaded view of marriage.
How can we fake it for six more months?
We've lived our whole life for those kids.
We can do this.
They'll figure it out.
Okay, so it won't be easy.
[exhales wearily]
I guess... we can try.
But if things between us,
if they get too bad,
we have to tell them.
Okay.
So... June?
Yeah. June.
Listen, I, I could unpack
and you could turn into
a nine-year-old again.
Dad...
Next time you see me,
it will be six weeks before the wedding.
Thank you, Mr. Reynolds.
This was a great vacation.
You can call us "John" and "Abby" by now.
John.
Oh. No. "Mr. Reynolds."
You're right.
I'm just kidding! I'm kidding.
I think there will be a lot of phone calls.
Lots!
Nothing but school work till June.
June.
Thank you.
Bye, guys. Love you.
Okay.
Bye.
Bye!
[♪♪]
[Pastor]: There's the beautiful bride!
Oh, Pastor Mike!
I'm so glad you’re doing our wedding.
Are you kidding? I wouldn't miss it.
You must be Matt.
Pastor, thank you for meeting with us.
Call me Mike. Please.
Let's sit.
I want to know all about you.
Tell me how you two met.
College chorus, last year.
Matt couldn't sing a note,
but needed art credits.
He even tried out for a solo.
He was awful!
[laughing] But adorable.
[Matt]: Why else would
a tone-deaf guy like me
join the choir?
[Nicole laughs]
Except...
to get the most beautiful girl in the world
to notice me.
That's very romantic, Matt.
Which is why we’re here, right?
To talk about what happens
when the romance wears thin?
Daddy!
[Pastor Mike]: Actually, he's not wrong.
Romance does fade.
That's why marriage is based
on commitment and not feelings.
John, maybe you and Abby could tell us
how you've managed to keep
your commitment so fresh
all these years.
Well, three months after we first married,
your mother and I had a terrible fight.
It got so bad, that she left the house,
and she was gone so long,
I was sure she left me.
Well, what did you do?
He made the worst brownies
in the history of the world.
[laughs]
If something can be raw and
burnt at the same time...
But, after that, we just, uh,
we sat down at the kitchen table
and we talked.
Yeah, we talked about how
we had to give each other
the benefit of the doubt
and operate from kindness.
And faith in each other.
Oh! And dancing.
You told me that, Mom.
"Never stop dancing."Right?
Yeah.
That's great.
Let me walk you through the ceremony.
[Nicole]: Yeah.
Hey, um, I'll make dinner tonight.
You go relax, okay?
With Dad at school, just.. - Just go hang out.
Are you sure?
Yeah. You've done so much already.
Okay. Go on.
Okay.
Take a load off. Love you.
[exhales heavily]
[♪♪]
[sighs]
How did I end up
with Martha Stewart as
a defensive coordinator?
Don't knock it.
I'm saving you a ton of dough here, man.
Do you have any idea how much
a good seamstress charges?
I can't say that I do, no.
Well, zigzag stitching does not come cheap.
How'd the church meeting go?
Uh, you know how everyone says
I'm so calm all the time?
"Ice Man."
No better coach when
the game's on the line.
Yeah, well, "Ice Man"nearly had a meltdown.
Ooh. [exhales]
Not surprised.
Like, you lose a game,
people hate you for a week.
But, uh, daughter's wedding?
Mess that up and...
well, uh,you get the picture, right?
Thanks.I feel so much better.
Good talk, Sol.
Any time, buddy.
Laundry time.
You will make somebody a
fine wife someday, Sol.
[Sol]: Hey, Charlene.
Well, hey, heads up. - He's a little twitchy.
[whispers]: Wedding jitters.
Let me guess--
you can't stand your future son-in-law?
Uh, no, actually, he's,
uh, he's a nice kid.
He'll make a great husband for Nicole.
Money? I mean, weddings can be crazy.
True. I always thought
if I spent half my salary on something,
it would be a bass boat...
But no, that's--that's not it,
and I really can’t talk about it.
Are you sure?
I'm happy to Bethe sounding board,
like always.
There's just some personal stuff
going on at home.
I need your input
on some of these student
council applications.
Some of them put you down as a reference.
Uh, yeah. I'll take a look.
Oh, and I have a new number,
so I will text it to you later,
just in case you wanna talk.
Okay. Thanks.
Okay. [laughs]
[♪♪]
[laughter and chatter, overlapping]
Those tulips are coming up, aren't they?
Guys, that was great.
You know, Nicole always talks about
these family dinners by the lake.
Yeah, we've had a lot
of good times out here.
Anniversaries, birthdays.
And now this.
But this is the first time
we've ever welcomed an in-law.
Cheers to the new guy.
New guy.
To the new guy!
[glasses clinking]
Welcome.
Oh, Mom and Dad even got engaged
out here on the dock.
Go on, Dad. Tell him.
Oh, that was a long time ago,
back when it was just an old fishing dock.
A lot's changed since then.
Matt, tell us about your parents.
They must be so excited.
Well, they can't believe
I'm marrying the daughter
of the John Reynolds.
They used to watch your football games
on TV all the time.
I mean, this is, like,
way before I was born.
[groans] Oh! Wow.
And you were doing so well until then.
I'm sorry.
Actually, my mom even
remembers you in the stands.
Ahh!
Like John said,that was a long time ago.
Who wants dessert?
Oh! Me, please.
Yes!
[Kade]: Thanks, Mom.
Ah, there she is. Hey.
Hey.
Everything okay?
Of course, why wouldn't it be?
Well, you just...
well, you seemed a little sensitive
to all that talk about you and John.
[forced chuckle]
It's not about us, it's a party
for Matt and Nicole.
Right, right.
The fact that you and John
have been sleeping in
separate beds for six months?
That's ridiculous.
Sweetheart, I might be getting old,
but I'm not stupid.
It's just a rough patch.
Every marriage has them. It's no big deal.
A rough patch is one thing,
but when two people start
leading separate lives--
Dad! Seriously.
It's okay.
Okay.
[weary sigh] I don't know why
I waited this long.
Yeah, why did you wait so long?
Well,
there weren't any good
boutiques near the school,
and I wanted to do it with you,
but six weeks out,no dress...
We'll find it.
There are 300,000 for
us to choose from here.
Which means we’ll find my dress
after the wedding.
Perfect.
You could always go in...
this direction.
Thank you, Aunt Beth,
but I think I'll pass.
You want cap sleeves, right?
Okay, so let's just start with that.
We'll narrow it down.
Wait. Mom!
Yeah?
I know. Why don't I use your wedding dress?
It's beautiful and vintage,
and available.
No, it's all frayed.
I don't even know where it is.
But it's lucky?
There has to be something here.
Let's all take a rack.
[phone buzzing]
The caterer!
I forgot I'm supposed to be
there in 15 minutes.
I-I guess we'll try again tomorrow.
Okay.
Okay. Thanks, Mom. Love you.
-Love you. -Thanks, Aunt Beth.
These wedding boutiques
are going to kill me.
If I hear one more "muzak" version
of Pachelbel's "Canon"
while I look at tulle and lace...
Abby, what's going on?
Nothing.
I'm not supposed to talk about it.
Let's just say...
John and I have seen better days.
Well, you've been married
for over 20 years.
You're due for a dip.
It's more than a dip.
We talked to a lawyer.
What?
How come you didn't tell me?
We wanted to keep it a secret
until after the wedding.
We decided, uh...a while ago,
in December.
No.
No. No, no.
Maybe I just need to go
be on my own for a while.
Maybe I'm supposed to go
and be that travel writer
that I always wanted to be.
Maybe giving up on that dream
is something that started
this whole process.
Do you think?
Do you remember the plan?
The plan was
that I would be there for
him during the season,
and he would be there for me off-season.
Well, maybe now, with the kids gone,
you can reclaim that dream together?
How?
A trip down memory lane.
Remind yourselves what you built.
I don't know how to do that, Beth.
I do.
Sometimes, a picture really
is worth a thousand words,
especially when they’re
pictures of your life.
Or your marriage.
Step one...
Pick out a scrapbook.
Okay.
Let's see...
Mm. I can make a wedding
present for Nicole.
Perfect.
I've been meaning to go through
this jumble of pictures.
Let's see...
Oh...
Look.
Oh! Well, that's your opener.
The first picture of our blushing bride.
[take a deep breath]
Okay.
[♪♪]
[thud]
[footsteps]
Oh, you're here.
Good.
I thought you were with Matt today.
Oh no, he's at the high school,
working out with Dad.
Mom...
I can't do it.
Honey. You can't-- What?
Did something happen with you and Matt?
No, no. It's nothing like that.
It's just... [sniffles] I've got a million things to do.
The party favors, the centerpieces...
My dress! I don't have a dress!
How can I help you?
Um, party favors, centerpieces, my dress?
Mom, I was so busy at school.
I bet, if we buckle down,
we can get it all done,
and have time to treat ourselves.
[deep breath]
Okay. Yes.
Oh, thank you so much.
I love you.
[exhales deeply]
[weary groan]
Oh.
[door opens]
[laughing]
You look like you’ve
been run over by a train.
Worse. I just worked out with
my future son-in-law.
I saw you guys.
You didn't look like you had
too much trouble keeping up.
Oh, I don't know.
He wants to be in peak
shape for the wedding.
I just want to be able
to brush my teeth later.
Sit up. Turn around.
Really?
Mm-hmm.
You give the best back rubs.
Have I told you that?
A few times.
Aw, you know, I don't-- I don't get it.
Abby and I used to be like them...
always doing be our best for each other.
[deep breath]
I guess we just stopped trying.
Mm, sounds like my marriage,
or what I remember of it anyways.
I guess even the happiest couples
start to take each other for granted.
You know, rumor has it
that Prince Charming and Cinderella
took separate vacations later in life.
[chuckles] Right.
Thanks.
Yeah.
Much better.
[exhales deeply] Oh.
You and Abby are strong.
You'll get through this.
John?
We have an attorney...
drawing up papers.
What?
I'm not supposed to say anything, but...
I--
I had to tell someone, you know?
Of course.
Oh, John, I'm--
Yeah, we decided five months ago,
but because of all this wedding...
You gotta promise me
you won't say anything.
I, I mean it.
Absolutely.
Five months...
Yeah.
Must have been really hard for you.
I'm glad that you have somebody to talk to.
And promise me
you're not gonna try to be Mr. Tough Guy.
Since when do I try to be Mr. Tough Guy?
You were there for me for my divorce,
and I'd really like to return the favor.
You have my number.
Bye.
[♪♪]
The fitting! Oh!
Okay, right here.
Selfie for the wedding album!
Ah, I hope we don’t outshine the bride.
I don't think that’s going to be a problem.
There he is.
Hey, fellas. Sorry. I got
hung up at the school.
We're just finishing.
He's all yours,my man.
Thanks. 46-tall.
And what should I do with this?
Oh, I don't know. Burn it?
What's wrong with my sweatshirt?
No offense, Dad,
but it's all you ever wear.
With those baggy sweatpants...
He's got a point.
A little fashion makeover
wouldn’t kill you.
If you don’t do it for yourself,
do it for Mom.
Have a little pride.
Okay. I get it.Thanks, guys.
We're gonna take off.
We'll see you back at the house.
Thank you.
[♪♪]
What do you think? Hmm?
Oh? "Princess Bride."I like it.
Me too.
Mom!
What?
[♪♪]
It's perfect.
It's the one.
It is absolutely beautiful.
Check number one.
[giddy chuckle]
[♪♪]
-Oh, Mom!-Yeah?
Oh, hey.
Maybe one of these at each place setting,
filled with something special.
Um... oh! Matt's favorite jelly beans.
Yeah, the sour ones
that make your face all puckered, and--
Yeah, that'll be perfect for pictures.
Okay. Check number two.
[♪♪]
[in unison]:For the table!
[both laugh]
Little candleson both sides.
Yeah, what do you think?
I think the only thing more beautiful
will be you.
Wait! Is that check number three?
It is.
You know what that means?
[indistinct conversation]
Thank you.
[exhaling deeply]
Best day ever.
Oh! I so needed this.
Me too.
Are you feeling better?
Oh! So much better.
I think maybe I was freaking
out about getting married,
like it's all happening so fast!
[sighs deeply]
Was it like that for you and Dad?
Did you ever doubt yourself?
I never did.
No, I couldn't wait to marry your father.
Mm. That's how I feel about Matt.
Do you remember it, Mom?
When you and Dad were engaged?
Your dad was very determined.
He always tried hard at everything he did.
That's why he’s such a good coach.
Oh, and Dad.
And Dad, yes.He is a wonderful dad.
You and Kade are lucky to have him.
Oh, no. You too.
Dig in.
[inhales sharply]
Okay!
Mm. What do I feel like today?
[♪♪]
Dad, you look amazing!
Oh, that's what I’m talking about, Dad.
It's just a coat, guys.
And Superman just wore a cape.
Can I help you?
You look nice.
Thanks.The place looks incredible.
Thank you.
Are you ready for the toast today?
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Shower in T-minus-20! Ooh!
Hey-hey. No. I'm not dressed yet.
Go. I got this.
Okay. Keep him away.
Wait for it. Wait for it.
[♪♪]
[Matt]:Nicole doesn't know this,
but I joined the chorus just--
Matt doesn't know it,
but it wasn't chorus class
where I fell in love.
It was karaoke night.
"Bohemian Rhapsody"?
All 25 off-key minutes of it.
[laughing]
Hi! Excuse me.
How are you?
Hey, guys.Are you having fun?
Oh, the food is incredible.
I mean, you should start
offering your recipes up
to the places that you review--
which reminds me...
Already in your in-box. New Italian place.
I love you.
I sent two more travel pieces to you.
Just read them. That's all I ask.
I still need you where you are.
[laughing]
Oh, what are some of the others?
John, tell them some of the others.
What, Abby talking in her sleep?
Oh, they're legendary.
Uh, "No, no, you wash the cat!"
"Everyone, stop throwing houses!"
[laughing]
Every time she just sits straight up,
and makes these proclamations,
and them fall right back asleep.
"We don't even have turtles!"
Okay, Abby,is this story true?
Beth will tell you that,
yes, I do talk in my sleep,
but John embellishes.
Hey, Beth.
Oh, hi.
Not big on crowds, huh?
Nope.
I never knew you were a knitter.
I'm boring like that.
[chuckles]
Kind of dabble in the yarn arts myself.
You? A... A knitter?
A lot of coaches are.
Well, maybe not a lot.
Probably just me,but they should be.
It's a lot like football.
Really?
How so?
Well...
a-a pulling guard, for example.
It's a lot like your basic brioche stitch.
May I?
Sure.
Thank you.
So...
Start with an edge stitch,
slip one,
purl wise together.
And if everybody does their job...
Touchdown!
[laughing]
Um, can--
can I get you a drink?
Sure.
[ring clinking glass]
[crowd quiets down]
Uh, everyone, if I could
have your attention?
Uh, we haven't had this
many people in the house
since I went 0 and 12 in my first season.
[laughter]
Lots of good memories.
Uh, you all seem happier now,
but today is about our amazing daughter
and her big day.
And since Abby is the writer,
I made her write the toast,so, Abby?
[crowd chuckling]
[deep breath] Nicole...
since the moment you came into this world,
you have aimed for joy.
You know how to grab it.
You have brought so much of
it into our lives, every day--
still.
We only hope that this marriage
feeds your contagious smile...
and lifts your giant heart.
May God smile on both of you forever.
Cheers.
[all]: Cheers.
Now I'm gonna go in the kitchen
and have a good cry. [laughs]
Thank you, Mom.
[crowd applauds]
You always did have a way with words.
Great speech.
It was really--
Nicole's very happy that you're here.
Aw.
She was so good in student council.
This is just a wonderful time in her life.
Need some help?
No. I'm good.
Hey...
John told me about what’s going on,
and if there’s anything that I can do...
It's okay.I didn't say anything.
He made me promise.
What exactly did he tell you?
About the divorce.
I understand what you’re going through,
believe me,
so if I can help in any way...
[♪♪]
Uh, excuse me.
What is it?Did something happen?
I'm leaving.
Leaving?What are you talking about?
[♪♪]
I didn't invite her.
You told her?
Our own kids don’t even know, John!
I'm sorry. Abby, I am.
We were just talking and it slipped out.
Oh, just slipped out?
How'd that happen, exactly?
"Oh, how was your day?
Oh, by the way, Abby and
I are getting a divorce?"
You know that's not how it happened.
Like you said, I can't
talk to anyone about it,
I can't talk to you.
Come on!
What am I supposed to tell people?
Tell them I went out for ice.
I'll be back in half an hour.
Abby...
We were having a nice day. Things were--
Abby?
[breath catches]
I saw the texts, John.
I saw all your texts with her.
How she has a "new number"?
How she wants to "help" you?
How you're her hero?She owes you?
I was helping her with kids at the school--
If you are falling for her,
have the decency
to wait until after the divorce.
She was there for me.That's it!
-She's "there" for you? -Yeah.
How's that supposed to make me feel?
After over 20 years,
and now she's the one that--after--
Let me tell you something.
No matter what has happened
between us the last few years,
I have been here.
I have been the one.
I can't do this.
Abby, will you wait?
Dad?Where's Mom going?
She just went for ice.
She'll be right back. Come on.
Back to the party.Let's go.
All right, all right.
Hey!
Hi.
Beautiful morning.
You know, I always loved
this time of day on the lake.
Hey, um...you got a minute?
Sure. Let's walk.
So, Matt has left
the honeymoon planning up to me.
I found this amazing bed and breakfast
three hours upstate.
It's called The Sweet Dreams Inn.
Ooh. That looks nice.
Is there a problem?
The host has called and said
they're doing some
painting while we're there.
She promised me
it's on the other side of
the suite I booked, but--
You want to drive up and check it out?
That's just it.
With the wedding-less
than three weeks away,
I don't have a spare second,
and I want it to be a
surprise for Matt, so...
I thought you and Dad
could take a quick trip.
I know, I know it's a lot, but
it would really help us.
I could do it,but I don't think Dad can.
No, no, I talked to him,
he said it was fine,
but just wanted me to check with you.
Uh, well...
Mom? Are you two okay?
Like, you took off kind of
suddenly from the shower
and ever since then...
No. We're fine.
We're just focused on you and Matt.
You two have a wedding
anniversary coming up
and we've been monopolizing everything.
A three-hour drive up and back,
a night alone,
could give you twosome private time.
Dad said he'd like that.
Dad said that?
Okay. We'll go.
Oh, my goodness. Thank you so much.
You're the best.
That's a lot off my plate!
The wide-out will be open all day,
no matter who we play,
but if Sanders doesn't grow
six inches over the summer,
we don't have a chance against Jefferson.
Not for two years.
Hi.
[knocking on door]
Hey, Abs.What brings you here?
I brought Kade some lunch.
Growing boy.
Do you have a second?
Yeah. I'll be right back.
Uh, did you tell Nicole
that we were gonna be
going on an overnight trip
to a bed-and-breakfast?
I did, yeah.
We need to talk sometime.
Sam's office called the other day.
The papers are ready.
Oh. Papers.
No, it's just...
[sighs] Look.
We've been so wrapped up in this wedding,
and miscommunicating,
that we should talk.
Just... talk to each other,you know?
I'll book separate rooms,
but if you'd just give me a chance--
[Sol]: Hey.
Just got an email about a prospect
over at Mills, that--
Sorry.Am I interrupting?
No. Abby was just deciding
if we were gonna go on a road trip.
Cool.
I'll think about it.
Okay.
I gotta--
Yeah. Go.

Actually, he'll be here in a few minutes.
You guys should join us and warm up!
You guys are crazy.I can dance just fine.
Well, I beg to differ.
I've seen your moves,John Reynolds.
Luckily, I'm hereto save you from yourself.

I do love you, Abby.
I love you, too.
[♪♪]
[engine shuts off]
Hey.
Abby, wake up.
We're here.
We're here already?
Yeah. You always did fall
asleep on road trips.
Sorry.
No, don’t worry about it.
I needed the time to think.
All right.
Let's, uh, let's check it out.
The painting is on the opposite side
from the honeymoon suite.
I can show it to you
as soon as the current couple checks out.
In the meantime,
can we show you to your room?
Uh, rooms.
Excuse me?
We booked two rooms for tonight.
I'm sorry...
that's not what I have.
It's okay.
We'll take whatever two rooms you do have.
Yes, the thing is,
we only have four rooms,
and the other three are booked for tonight.
But...
See? It's a beauty.
And roomy.
It's lovely.
Dinner's on us,for the mistake.
Thank you.
[faucet runs, then stops]
John.
Yeah?
You don't have to sleep on the floor.
Really?
We shared a bed most of our lives.
I think it's okay.
Come on.
[♪♪]
We did okay... right?
I mean, the kids, they're...
They're amazing.
I think...
Nicole picked really well,
Kade's going to do great in college.
It just happened so fast, huh?
Yeah.
I miss you, Abby.
I really do.
I miss you, too.
And I'm sorry if...
did I blow everything?
I think we did this together.
We both...
accepted less from each
other than we should have.
I think we both kind of blew it.
[♪♪]
[door opening]
Ah. You're awake.
You didn’t have to do that.
I brought muffins, too, for the road.
What's that?
Scrapbook.
Beth got me started.
I'm making a wedding present
for Nicole.
I haven't seen these pictures in years.
Yeah, I'd forgotten
about some of them, too.
Look at this one. Remember that?
That's your first year at Langley High.
That might Bethe only good memory
from that first season.
[chuckles]
You survived it.
We survived.
Look at this.
I think the only person more
excited than me that day
was your father.
Mm. This one’s my favorite.
Our little girl.
She's so beautiful.
Just like her mom.
Nicole is gonna love this.
[♪♪]
[knocking]
Come in.
I'm sorry.
Mrs. Reynolds' sister called.
Beth?
She couldn't reach you on your cell phone.
It's your father.
Beth! What happened? Is he okay?
He had a stroke.
Oh, no.This is terrible.
It was minor, but he's
not out of the woods yet.
He's at risk at having another one.
[♪♪]
Dad.
Hey!
Did I hear that you two
went on a second honeymoon?
You scared us to death.
I told Beth not to call. I'm fine.
Are you kidding me? A stroke is not "fine".
What am I gonna do with you?
Don't worry about me.
You have a wedding to pull together.
No, Pops, we can push the date.
Don't you change a thing.
I'm fine.
Okay, okay, look,
I need everybody to give me a minute.
I want to speak to your dad in private.
Kids.
You too, Abby.
Oh. Okay.
I'll be right outside, okay?
Fine.
Hey, Pops. What's going on?
[sighing] Come here.
Look.
In case this whole stroke thing
goes sideways on me.
You said you were doing fine.
Right.
But no matter how old she is,
Abby is still my little girl.
It's my job to protect her.
You don't just stop being a dad.
I-I get that.
Which is why I need you
to make me a promise.
Just in case.
Yeah. Anything.
I need you to love her.
Dad?
You heard me.
Love...
her.
John, I know that things
aren’t right between you.
I want to tell you something
that neither Beth nor Abby knows.
Her mother and I almost called it quits.
You and Ellie?
You know better than anybody--
what's on the outside
can be different than the inside.
But a marriage is a house.
You invest in it,
you make the repairs...
and you love it...
because inside is everything
that ever meant something to you.
Ellie and I never walked away
from what we spent a lifetime building.
I just wish...
I wish we had more time together.
This is your house, John.
This is your life.
It's more complicated
than that, Dad, I think.
She stood by you.
She made sacrifices for you.
She didn’t draw attention to it,
and she never will,
because she did it out of love.
Now you have to love her.
All the way to the end.
I'll try.
I, I am trying.
I'm a sick old man, John.
[laughs]
Promise me.
I promise.
That's my boy.
[♪♪]
Final count?
Uh, 76, with two "regrets".
That's what I got.
Okay, I will email the caterer.
Ooh. Two weeks.
I can't believe it’s already here.
The wedding...
or what happens after it's over?
Both.
You know, I've been making that scrapbook
and looking through old photos,
and I keep coming back to this one
of when John and I exchanged vows.
We were so young.
But so certain.
I can't stop thinking
about young Abby and John,
at the end of the aisle...
Those 22-year-old’s
trusted us.
They believed that we could go all the way.
They'd be so disappointed.
[Beth]: You don't have to
disappoint them, you know.
[doorbell chimes]
I'll get it.
[Abby sighing]
Oh. Those are beautiful.
Come on in.
Put them over there,with the others.
She's got a garden growing.
Thank you.
More flowers for the bride.
[exhales wearily]
There you go.
Just a few more feet. Come on.
We have a wedding in 10 days.
I know.
Okay.
Take it.Take it, take it.
Yeah. And... ah! Touchdown!
Oh...
Ahh...
Good job.
[exhales]
Now it's your turn.
What?
Abby, John is trying.
[groans] Dad.
I've seen him.
What about you?
It's weird.
Sometimes, we feel like
"ourselves" again, but...
I don't know.
The last few years...
I don't think we’re going to make it.
How did it get so bad?
Do you even know?
I've been blaming him all this time,
his football, Charlene...
But I let it happen, too.
I remember
the month before you walked down the aisle,
how he brought you a
dozen red roses every day.
Every day, Abby!
You remember?
He worked all summer for those roses.
And when you were laid up on bed-rest,
pregnant with Kade?
He went and got
every kind of food in
this town for dinner...
...for you,
for two months.
It was so long ago.
Things change.
People grow apart.
All you ever wanted to
do was to marry that boy.
It's late in the game...
but there's still time left on the clock.
You can still choose to stay.
You can choose love.
[♪♪]
"Meet me at the pier."
6:00.
[♪♪]
[phone rings]
Hello?
Abby. It's Stan.
Oh, hi, Stan. Can I call you back?
I think you're gonna
wanna make time for this.
Can you be at the office in 10 minutes?
Um... I'm meeting John in an hour.
It won't take that long.
Trust me.
You'll be glad you came.
Oh, Stan,why do you do this?
See you soon.
[beep]
[indistinct exchange]
Okay, what's so important?
Did I win a Pulitzer for
my restaurant review?
Actually...
say hello to Gabrielle Pender.
She owns a string of
newspapers here in the Midwest.
I am a big fan.
Oh! Hi.
You like my food column?
Actually, your travel pitches.
Stan was kind enough to
forward me a few... dozen.
You thought I threw them away.
I knew you were good,
and now Gabrielle knows how good.
I'd like to offer you a
trial spot in my papers.
If it goes well,
it could lead to a column
of your own in syndication.
Can you join us for a few minutes?
Sure! Yeah.
If the response is good,
we'll expand the markets,
help you build an audience.
If that goes well,down the line,
we are looking at sending you away
five to six times a year.
Do think you can handle that?
Sign me up!
I told Gabrielle you could do this.
You've always been my ace reporter.
"Ace Reynolds."
That's my Abby.
"Ace..."
What time is it?
[Gabrielle]: Almost 7:30.
Oh, I can't believe I’ve done this.
I'm so sorry. I have to go.
[♪♪]
John! I'm so sorry.
Yeah. Me too.
I'd offer you some cheese and crackers,
but I gave it to the
ducks about an hour ago.
Seemed only right, since
they were here on time.
Well, I'm here now,
so we can still do this.
Why?
Because we were--
I'm showing up, Abby.
I'm doing things and I'm showing up.
I'm showing up,too, John.
I came to the school, like I used to,
the bed and breakfast--
You know, maybe we’re
just fooling ourselves.
Don't you even
want to ask me why I was late?
Does it matter?
Maybe it does to me.
I'm putting myself out there.
I sent you the license plate--
Which I loved.
[chuckles sadly] Yeah.
Seems like that.
Something good happened for me tonight.
Me too.
I got completely clear
about how we’re fooling ourselves.
I'm gonna sleeping the guest room.
I don't want to pretend anymore.
John!
Oh, and, uh... here.
These came in the mail.
You invited me out here tonight
so you could give me the
divorce papers? Great.
No.
I was going to rip them up.
I was gonna talk.
But this is what it's come to.
[♪♪]
[footsteps]
Hey.
[exhales deeply]
I heard about Pops.
How is he?
Determined to dance at
the wedding this weekend.
That man is a powerhouse.
[chuckles]
You don't look good.
Here...
This'll help.
It's my guilt offering,
'cause I feel awful
about what happened at the shower. I--
Don't. Don't.
I think it would’ve
happened sooner or later.
Abby and I just need to figure out
how to get on with our lives.
And the kids?
We'll tell them after the wedding.
Nicole will be gone and
Kade will be off to school,
and the kids just don't need us anymore.
[scoffs]
Who'd have seen this coming, huh?
Me and you?
Sitting here...
broken marriages...
crying on each others' shoulders?
Well, I can think of worse places to be.
Uh, Charlene, if...
you know,if I've given you
the wrong idea about things...
You didn't.
It's just...
no matter how bad things are,
the truth is...
I'm still in love with my wife.
We're friends.
I get it.
[♪♪]
A-Ab--
[quietly, pained]: No!
Uh-- Abby!
[♪♪]
Abby--
Abby! Just stop!
It wasn't what you think.
It doesn't matter what I think.
You made it very clear.You're moving on.
Hey! No! That's not--
Can we please talk?
We both did this, okay?
We weren't therefor each other.
We didn’t take care of each other.
We didn’t love each other.
All the way to the end.
[♪♪]
Sorry, Nicole.
This is not much of a bachelorette party.
Chardonnay and a bucket
of vanilla ice cream.
Oh, no, no. It's perfect.
I can't think of a better way
to spend my last night as a single lady
than with you two.
I love you both so much.
Mm. We love you, too, baby.
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have to go make a phone
call and take a walk.
Oh...
[playfully]: M-a-t-t...Wherefore art thou?
Oh!
[both laughing]
Leave her alone. She's in love.
[♪♪]
[line ringing]
[ringing]
Hello?
Hey, Dad!
Are you gonna be home soon?
Yeah, almost, kiddo.Everything okay?
Yeah, it's just
it's kind of my last
night as your little girl.
[chuckles]
You'll never stop being my little girl,
ever.
Ever. Ever.
Okay, okay.
Hey, I know it sounds silly,
but could we say bedtime
prayers one more time?
Yeah.
Yeah, I'd like that a lot.
Thank you, Lord,
for a daughter better
than I could ever imagine.
Guide her on Your path to happiness,
protect her heart,
keep her safe and loved,
all the days of her life.
God in heaven,
thank you for the blessing
of loving parents and family
who have guided me so well.
I love you, Daddy.
I love you, too, little one.
Goodnight.
[beep]
[sniffles and sighs]
[♪♪]
[quiet chatter]
[knocking]
Mom!
Come in.
Oh...
sweetie.
How do I look?
Like the most beautiful bride
in the whole wide world.
I mean it,you look stunning.
Okay, okay, stop.You're gonna make me cry,
and I worked really hard on my makeup.
[laughs]
I made you something.
What is this?
Open it.
[♪♪]
Oh, Mom...
[chuckles]
Oh, this is amazing.
When did you have time?
Here and there.
Do you like it?
I love it!
I don't know, I guess I
just wanted to show you
what love looks like,
so that you and Matt
could have what we had.
all these years.
[sniffling]
Okay, I should get downstairs.
Guests are arriving.
Mom?
I love you.
I love you too, baby.
[♪♪]
Who gives this woman to be married?
Her mother and I.
I love you, baby.
I love you, too, Dad.
Matt and Nicole,
you've chosen a beautiful
place for your wedding,
but, apparently, we aren’t
the only ones who think so.
This morning,
your brother reminded me
that a pair of eagle shave
been living on this lake
even longer than your mom and dad.
"Those who hope in the Lord
will renew their strength.
"They will soar on wings like eagles.
"They will run
"and not grow weary.
They will walk and not grow faint."
Matt and Nicole,
our prayer
is that you'll live like eagles.
Never grow weary,never grow faint,
never lose heart,
and never let go.
The rings?
[♪♪]
And now,
because you’ve declared your love
before God and all of us here...
I now pronounce you husband and wife.
You may now kiss the bride.

I thought these were for Nicole.
I figured you'd seen them.
Not until just now.
What you wrote...
...means everything.
Abby,
25 years ago,I stood right here
and promised to never let you go.
I made the same promise.
I'd like to keep it, if
that's okay with you.
You were right.
I let myself get too close to Charlene.
It wasn't what you thought,
but it wasn't right, either.
And I told her that.
You did?
That day you saw us in the gym,
I had just told her...
that I love just one woman...
you.
Stan told me about your travel column.
That's...
what you were trying to tell me that night.
I blew that.
I shouldn't have made you wait out here--
I should've thrown you a party!
Your own travel column?
How long have you been
wanting something like that?
I kept you from that, Abby.
John--
I should have been proud of you.
I don't want to miss your success.
I want to be here for it,
like you were for me.
I never said that enough...
But you were.
We promised to never stop dancing.
I know what that means now--
never stop committing.
Never stop trying.
I love you.
I never stopped.
Dance with me, Abby.
For the rest of my life.
Forever...
and always.
