David, where are you?
You were supposed to be here 20 minutes ago.
The guests are already arriving.
Okay, don't get mad.
I accidentally left the rings at home
and went back to get 'em.
I'm a good 15 minutes away.
When people say "good" followed by an amount of time,
it usually means double.
Okay, you got me.
Be there in a half-an-hour.
Fine. Bye.
Thank you, Daddy, for filling in.
Ohh.Oh, of course, of course.
David should be here any minute.
Anything for my baby girl.
Ohh. Only get married once.
I hope.
Ugh. Paisley?
I thought we agreed on a bow tie.
Come on, Robert. I...
I like the tie. It has character.
Oh. Like that six-button,
mustard-yellow get-up I gave to Goodwill?
Ugh.
Looked like a damn Detroit deacon in that suit.
Uh, sorry. Alcohol, no alcohol.
It will make your eyes puffy.
The only puffy things I want to see tomorrow
are those decadent crab pastries
that I dropped all that bling-bling on.
Bling-bling? No-no.
Uh... Mnh-mnh.
Don't do that. Ever again.I tried.
Come on, Robert.
Damn! Your mama checked you, boo.
"Bling-bling."
Oh, God. Please, don't.
It was so cute and so funny when she tries to --
It's not -- I mean, yeah, okay.
Well, I like the dress and I love cham--
I know, she's --Yes, honey, thank you much.
Don't mind if I do.
No, no, no, thank you.
I'm, uh...
abstaining from...
Hey, girls!
Oh. Okay.
I didn't realize she was here.
David, David!
Hi, Mrs. Carmichael.
Oh! You look absolutely dashing.
Oh, thank you.
Like a young Harry Belafonte.
Oh.He could sweat the perm out of my hair any day.
Mom? Mom? Okay, okay.
I have to admit, when I first met Ari's law school friends,
I was a bit concerned, because she --
she tends to hang out with the vagabonds
and the -- the riff-raff.
Like that friend of yours, that homeless boy?
What's his name? Who?
Ma-- Wesley?
Mom, he isn't homeless.
Oh, well. Okay. Uh, between homes.
Is that better?Oh, my God, Mom.
He's gonna open up his own restaurant
and he's coming to the wedding, so you be nice.
Oh, as long as he's not in any of the pictures, okay?
Oh. Don't they look stunning?
They do.Hi, Mom.
Hello, honey.
Attention, everyone!
Since my future son-in-law has arrived,
it is time to start the rehearsal dinner.
-Oh, hi. -Traffic was crazy.
What are you...I need some wine!
...doing here?
Honey, hold that. Gotta pee.
What?
What's going on, Ari?
You only come out here when it's DEFCON 1.
I think I have to divorce David.
What? Excuse me?
I -- I don't get it.
I mean, I know he's been running you ragged
with his campaign, but --
Did David put his D in some heifer's V?
'Cause they doing that now.
No, Bree.
As far as I know, David's never cheated on me.
I... I don't think he has the time.
Girl, they make time.
Don't they, though?Yes.
Like a cobbler makes shoes.Mm-hmm.
And Pharrell makes beats.Say it.
Like Grandma make hot-water cornbread.
Who? I got it, Haze, thanks.
David hasn't cheated on me, um,
David doesn't do anything for me.
Hmm?What's that supposed to mean?
I mean, the sex has never been earth-shattering,
but he used to at least try.
But now it feels like he's stopped caring
about my needs at all.
I mean, don't I deserve, like, a little compromise
on the things that I -- Iwant?
Yes, of course.
Absolutely, you deserve it.
Yes.I mean, no man is perfect,
but he's supposed to meet you at least half the way.
Sometimes I wonder if I made the right decision marrying David.
Look, Ari.
We all make questionable decisions in our 20s, okay?
In our 20s, last week...
Ari?
Were you everhappy with David?
I think so.
Looking back, I -- I'm not so sure.
Um, I'd like to make a toast.
When I first meet Ariel Carmichael
back in college, the girl that taught me
about pillow shams and duvet covers,
I never thought that we would become best friends.
But here we are.
And I also remember being very single back in college
planning our weddings to our fake husbands.
Mine was Ja Rule.
What? He had a lot of hits.
He's never there when I call, but he's always on time.
And, um...
And Ari's imaginary husband was Boris Kodjoe.
I don't know if you knew that, David, but there you go.
Um...
I'm just so happy you found David.
I'm so proud to be standing next to you
for the next phase of your life.
I love you, Ari.
And I wish nothing but the best for the both of you.
Please, raise your glasses.
To Ari and David.
-Cheers! -Cheers!
Cheers.
And now, a few words from the best man.
All righty.
Okay, so when --Wait a minute.
Um, I wanna say something.
Okay. Just one moment, please.
I wanna say something.
I wanna say something, I wanna say something.
Okay.
Uh...
I met Ari a long time ago.
Um, I, too, was a Snow Hall bunny.
Shout-out to fall '99.
I see y'all. Ker-ker!
And although we do bicker sometimes,
I love you like a sister.
And I wanna congratulate you on finding Mr. Right.
Like you said, David Montgomery checks all the boxes.
I'm just so happy for you, girl.
You and your mama.
I know she's getting exactly what she wants.
Cheers.
David checks all my boxes?
What kind of shit is that to say the night before my wedding?
You said that to me verbatim.
What are you really so angry about, Ari?
I'm upset because I said that to you in confidence.
Know what? I get it. I get it.
Youwould be lucky to have a man like David.
Puh-lease.
I am in an amazing relationship with Derek.
Derek?
You mean, Community Dick Derek?
I told you that in confidence and you said
not to believe everything I hear.
And now you're gonna throw that back in my face?
You know what? You know what?
I am not doing this with you.
You wanna show up here and act a fool,
you can act a fool someplace else.
Fine by me.
I've been disinvited from way better events than this one.
Fine.
David, I mean, the way that she treated your brother
and I just couldn't understand why she would just show up,
out of the blue, dressed in red.
I mean, could you understand why she did --You are so right.
David?
Are you listening to me?
I heard you, sweetie.
Look, Hazel was just being Hazel.
You know I would never question your love for me
based on anything that came out of her mouth.
I know.
I guess I just needed to vent.
I mean, I never thought that I would be arguing
with one of my best friends the night before my wedding.
Aw. It's very upsetting.
Yeah, I can see that.
You have that cute, little wrinkle
in the middle of your forehead.
Oh. Let's go out.
Let's go have a drink. Let's just go and relax.
The night before our wedding?
Yeah.
It'll be fun.
Oh, come on, please?
Uh...
I can't.
Look, I have to finish up this brief
so we can relax tomorrow after the wedding.
Look, why don't you get some rest?
Okay. I will.
You promise?
Mm-hmm.
Back to work.
Mmm.
Thank you.
Hey. Sorry I missed dinner.
My flight was delayed.
But I figured I'd still stop by.
You home?
Oh, did I forget to mention that this was a gay club?
My bad.
These wings, though, you always did know
where to find the best wings.
Oh, you remember that spot on the East Side?
Hell, yeah. You do?
Them wings was good, cheap, and hot as hell.
And the drinks were more than the damn wings.
'Cause they knew we would die of thirst without 'em.
Thank you.
Oh, shit.
It's on! I think we do.
Let's go! Come on, come on!
I see you, Miss Thing!
Come on up here!
Get your ass up here!
Go!Come on in, baby!
I know you ain't talking to me!
Show the crowd what you working with!
Show us what you made of. Come on, baby.
Show the crowd, darling.
5, she's 6, she's 5, 6, 7, 8.
Go! Whoo!
Yes! Yes! Ow! Now, get it!
Get it up and hold it!
Oh! Yes!
Are you okay? Yeah.
You had me worried there for a second.
I'm fine.
You're not fine.
You just fainted.
What's going on?
Talk to me.
I just think all the stress and pressure
of trying to plan the perfect wedding
is, like, finally getting to me.
I mean, what if everything falls apart and --
and no one gets what they want?
Listen.
The only thing that matters is what youwant.
Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.Don't be.
I'm getting married.
It's -- It's too late.
Ari?
It just happened.
I didn't feel like I had much control over the situation.
How much did you have to drink?
I didn't have anything to drink.
It's just...
I don't feel like I have to censor myself around Wesley.
Like, I don't know, I don't --
I don't instinctively hold back and --
and I don't pretend to be in control.
It's just easy.
There's this energy between us.
Okay. Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold up, now.
You are talking about having an energy
with some other dude on the day of your wedding!
Girl, what is wrong with you?
Something's not right.
For a month leading up to this wedding,
I have been anxious to the point of nausea.
Every morning, I wake up sick to my stomach.
And I don't think it's pre-wedding jitters anymore.
Okay.
When was the last time you got your period?
Come on, Bree.
No. No.
No. Absolutely not.
I've been on the pill since I was 21.
It's impossible.
Like black president impossible.
That's not it.
Right?
You're just trying to make me feel better.
Hey, Ari?
I -- I brought this.
You called her? Yeah.
I had to. I had to call her.
Look, Ari, I...
I'm really, really sorry.
No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Of course, I want you here.
I wanna be here.
Oh, honey, I haven't been myself lately.
Me, neither. Me, neither.
I've been going through a lot.
I've been stupid.
Ooh, I need in on this!
I love the both of you!
Ugh!
Hazel, stop shaking it like a Polaroid.
You're slinging piss everywhere.
I'm just trying to speed it up like they do on TV.
Listen, Ari, I know you have a lot on your mind right now,
but you do have options.
You don't have to go through
with an unplanned pregnancy, honey.
And you also don't have to decide right now.
Whatever the results are, whether you wanna marry David
or not, we love you and we're here for you.
What do you mean, "or not"?
Is there an "or not," when it comes to marrying David?
What'd I miss?
Well?
You got your something blue.
Oh, my God.
Um...
One second!
We'll be -- We'll be out in a moment!
Ariel, it's your mother!
The ceremony is scheduled to start soon!
Open the door!
-I'm pooping! -No, no, shh, guys, stop, stop.
It's okay.
Hi! How are you?
Nice to see you.Why aren't you dressed?
Ladies, will you excuse me?
I need a moment alone with my daughter.
Yes, ma'am.
Mom, please don't be disappointed.
Disappointed?
I am thrilled.
Aren't you?
No.
Mother, this wasn't a part of the plan yet.
I mean, I'm not even sure I'm ready to have a child.
I wasn't ready, either, until I held you in my arms
and then I knew.
What about my career?
I just passed the bar.
I'm -- I'm gonna start my job --
Oh, honey, honey, honey.
You have time for all of this.
Huh?
I'm not sure that this is what I want.
I just wanna be happy.
Of course you will be happy.
Everything you've ever wanted in a life partner
is on the other side of that door.
Now, come on.
There are 200 guests waiting outside to see
the most beautiful bride in Sag Harbor.
Let's not, um, disappoint them.
Hmm?
Ohh.
Aw!
Look at Wesley trying to hold it together
after he kissed the bride the night before the wedding.
What really happened between you two that night
at the Beast Party?
Ari? What's up?
Listen.
The last time we saw each other at the party, um,
I'm a little fuzzy on the details.
I mean, I don't --We didn't.
Huh?
We didn't have sex.
Oh, thank God. Wow.
Good to know I'm a mistake you're happy you didn't make.
No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
It's -- It's not like that.
It's just -- Keep it real with you.
I haven't been able to stop thinking about you
since that night.
Wesley...
I should've never sat there all those years ago
and watch you marry another man,
when I knew in my heart that we belong together.
You still there?
Yeah.
I'm here.
Look, um...
I wish...
things could've been different for us,
but, um, David and I are --
I know you're a married woman.
But if you're not happy,
you're allowed to change your mind.
It's not too late.
Um...
Ari?!
David.
Ari, Ari, please.
What?
I miss you.
Do you miss me or do you miss your campaign manager?
I -- I miss you. My wife.
Look, I've already hired another campaign manager.
Listen, I can live with losing the senate race,
but I can't live with losing you.
David...
Why did you marry me?
What, um -- Is it because I checked all of your boxes?
Yes and no, Ari.
You definitely check off all my boxes,
but who you are and why I wanna be with you
is so much bigger than that.
You remember the first night of our honeymoon?
When you told me I was gonna be a father?
I don't think you know, 'cause I --
I tried to hide it, but...
Ari, I was scared shitless...
until you told me you believed in me.
And at that moment...
At that moment, I knew I was enough...
as long as I had you as my partner.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
I promise I will never again let you feel
like you're not my top priority.
David...
Ari, I love you.
Will you forgive me...
for taking you for granted and...
accept this ring as a token of both my appreciation
and unwavering love?
I will.
So, you knew you were pregnant at Sag Harbor
and didn't say anything?
It was Ari's day.
I didn't wanna ruin it.
Does Derek know? No.
He's already got a baby mama he could barely stand.
I'm -- I'm not trying to be his second.
I get that, Hazel, but don't you think
he's got a right to at least know?
It's my body.
It's my choice.
You're not wrong.
You called her?
Yeah, I called her.
Of course she called me.
-Hey. -Miss Rachelle?
We're ready for you.
It's gonna hurt.
A little.
Yeah. But you'll be all right.
You're strong.
You got this.
Miss Rachelle?
We'll be here for you when you come out.
Okay?
We love you, Haze.
She'll be fine.
She got this.
