Yeah, I kind of like this younger crowd
that the speakeasy is bringing in.
A couple of them told me that I look like
Sabrina Carpenter's grandmother.
These young people fill me with hope...
for people who own hat stores.
Are all these people waiting to get into the speakeasy?
Wow.
Isabella must be thrilled.
You'd think, but she's really stressed out.
She's worried if people have to wait too long,
they'll leave and never come back.
Worried?
I've seen people that taste coffee for a living
less on edge.
Thank you all so much for waiting.
It won't be much longer.
Wait, wait.
No, where are you going?
Get back here!
Isabella, come here.
No, but I have to stop them from getting away.
Takoda, Takoda, go get their license plate number.
Oh, but last time, I almost got run over.
We give you health insurance.
Go!
Isabella, you can't force people to stay.
It's not like we're selling them timeshare condos.
Yeah, I got stuck in one of those sales pitches once.
Luckily, I was on my way to a concert later,
so I was wearing adult diapers.
I really want to hear about that later,
but right now, it's Isabella that's acting like a lunatic.
I know. I know.
I should calm down.
Just because one group got tired of waiting
doesn't mean everyone will.
Actually, several have left.
They're just the ones you saw.
Is that helpful?
Let me answer that for you-- no.
What am I going to do, Bobbie?
All of these people want to get in the club,
but I can't fit them.
That's great news!
Waiting for something makes people want it more.
Another situation where adult diapers come in handy.
Yeah.
Is that helpful?
Let me answer it for you.
No.
Mm-hmm.
I just wish there were a way
to keep people from leaving while they wait.
Oh, another group is leaving.
Block the door!
From upstairs,
which means you can bring another group up.
- Oh. - Oh.
Right.
- Ah. - Thanks. Yeah.
Uh, Kennison, party of four.
Are you ready to move forward with your reservation
and backwards in time?
Please go up and enjoy the 1920s.
That girl is going to give herself a conniption.
We gotta find a way to help her keep these people in here.
How?
They want mocktails, not alcohol.
If this generation doesn't get drunk,
how are they gonna accidentally create the next generation?
Do you still have that lemon seltzer water?
Yeah.
From now on, it's a citrus fizz.
Brilliant.
And I'll give all the mixers mocktail names,
and I'll serve those.
And we charge the same as if it had alcohol.
Ha!
Cha-ching!
Oh, man, I love this generation.
Yeah.
- ♪ Sometimes it feels like a big ol' fight ♪
♪ To get through the day ♪
♪ And sleep on through the night ♪
♪ But here you'll find a place ♪
♪ That'll surely lift your spirits ♪
♪ You belong at Happy's Place ♪
Steve, I need to talk.
OK, just one second.
Yeah, almost done.
Closing in on the finish line...
It's about Monica.
Next time, start with that.
What about Monica?
I didn't say Monica.
I said harmonica.
I'm learning to play.
We might start a band.
Big Blowing Emmett and Little Stevie Whistles.
Why is he being all sneaky talking about Monica?
Did he forget I'm the one that broke up with him?
He's just uncomfortable, you know?
Like an accountant being forced to talk to his boss
about the love life of her chef ex-boyfriend.
So he's calling it a love life now?
Oh, good.
You didn't pick up on my hint.
Yeah, I got your hint.
And you shouldn't feel uncomfortable talking about it
'cause I'm perfectly fine with it.
Yeah, see, you're doing that thing
where your words don't match your tone.
I'm perfectly fine with it!
And now your tone's not matching your face.
Bobbie, I hate to ask,
but our friendship and my need to pry compels me.
Is it possible you still have feelings for Emmett?
Of course I do.
I was about to tell the man I loved him.
That kind of stuff just doesn't go away overnight.
Then why don't you try to work it out with him?
I don't want to talk about it.
OK.
You're fine with it, you're not fine with it.
Just pick a lane already!
Seaborn, party of four.
Seaborn?
Great.
Looks like I lost more customers.
Oh, no.
Seaborn party's right over there
enjoying their mocktails.
- What? - Yeah.
They come in here wanting to be sober,
we're gonna keep 'em sober.
You're selling mocktails?
- Yeah. - Yeah.
My favorite is the agua fresca.
It's ice water with a packet of sugar.
But that's my thing.
You stole my thing.
I'm just trying to help.
What's gotten into you?
What's gotten into me?
- Yeah. - I mean,
you stabbed me in the back,
so I guess a knife's gotten into me?
OK, that's just the stress talking.
No, don't do that.
Don't just dismiss me.
I am being perfectly calm.
Hey, her face does the same thing yours does.
Can you guys keep it down?
Sober people can hear everything.
Can we talk about this at home?
No, because then it'll be like it always is.
You'll be all reasonable,
and I'll feel bad and apologize.
And we'll hug, and nothing will ever actually get resolved.
I won't be reasonable, I promise.
You know, you two should see a counselor.
It really helped out my sister and her husband.
Yeah, right.
I think that's a great idea.
What?
We can't see a couples counselor.
We're singles.
Anyone in a relationship can see a counselor,
and we are in a relationship.
OK, keep it down.
This is Tennessee.
Opening the speakeasy has caused
a lot of tension between us.
Clearly, we have some unresolved issues.
Oh, maybe for you, but I'm fine.
OK.
You can't solve a problem
if you can't admit you have one.
But I don't have one!
That's why we're going to therapy.
OK, I'll schedule us an appointment.
Mm-hmm.
How did I wind up going to therapy with my sister?
That's a question that you should ask the therapist.
Steve.
Hello?
Steve!
Is somebody looking for me?
OK I don't need your pity.
Steve!
What are you doing?
Hot yoga.
Get in here!
OK.
That wasn't a scream of fright.
It was a scream of delight.
So what's up?
I need some advice on how to handle Monica.
Monica, you say?
No.
That's weird.
Came out of the bathroom after I heard
what I thought was a young girl in trouble.
And I could have sworn I heard you tell Steve
that you needed some advice about Monica.
It was a scream of delight.
Excuse me.
I'm needed somewhere.
- Anyway... - Yeah.
And somewhere is here.
This is a private conversation.
Well, maybe to you.
But as Monica's best friend,
I just think somebody should be in here
to represent her interests.
I thought Bobbie was your best friend.
You can't have two best friends.
I don't.
I am Monica's.
Bobbie is mine.
We each have one.
It's science.
I don't know much about science,
but you know, maybe it is.
It's not science!
Anyway, so what's happening with Monica?
Well, we've gone out a few times.
And the last time,
we kissed.
- Oh. - Oh.
And what happened then?
Keep in mind, I don't want to form a mental image
of you two doing anything.
I'm OK with it.
Nothing happened.
To tell you the truth,
I felt like it was kind of wrong.
Well, are you sure you were doing it right?
Were you using your lips?
Because I dated this surgeon who used way too much nose.
The kiss was fine, all right?
I felt like I was kissing a friend.
So now you want to break up with her?
Oh, that could be bad for us.
A health inspector with an axe to grind?
Sounds like the premise of an OCD horror film.
Not if I can find a way to let her down easy.
Well, if you want to spare her feelings, Emmett,
the best thing that you can do
is just act like a complete jerk.
You get that from the nose guy?
This way, she will be the one to break things off
while keeping her dignity.
What about my dignity?
Yeah, well, that'll be gone.
Good God, just be honest, man.
You're both adults.
She'll understand.
It's not that hard, people.
You know what?
He's right.
OK.
Is anyone else ticked off
that Takoda just eavesdrops on our conversations?
What?
I didn't get to offer my advice.
OK, what's your advice?
Same as Takoda's,
but now he'll get all the credit!
OK, here it is, Dr. Russell Peabody III.
Well, pardon me.
It's his name.
He didn't have a say in picking it.
Yeah, but he didn't have to add "The III."
Sounds kind of braggy, if you ask me.
You know, Bobbie, if you just relaxed,
you could enjoy yourself.
You might even learn something about yourself.
I don't want to.
If I want to know something about me,
I'll ask myself.
Yeah, that's good.
Did I say something funny?
Well, I ain't laughing at the coffee.
If you don't want to talk about yourself, why are you here?
That's a good point.
Come on, Isabella, let's go.
Uh, we're staying.
And we're here because we recently
opened a new business together,
and it's causing a lot of tension between us.
I think it's because of unresolved issues.
Mm.
And I think it's 'cause she's cranky.
Well, I don't think you're going to get very far
with a partner who's scared to look at herself.
What are you talking about?
I can look at myself just fine.
Sounds like I hit a nerve.
Well, I think you're a big old butt.
How's that sound?
Like I hit another one-- two for two.
Sorry, but patients who don't know each other
don't usually talk to each other in the waiting room.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And doctors don't usually talk to their patients
in the waiting room either, but here I am!
Dr. Russ, the third.
I know what you're doing, by the way.
Oh, yeah?
What's that?
You're being unorthodox
so that we'll become uncomfortable.
And you're hoping that we say something revealing
because uncomfortable people can't stop talking.
Am I right?
I'm right, aren't I?
Tell me that I am currently correct.
Well, I'd check my Psych 101 textbook,
but I left it at my beach house.
No, maybe it was my lake house.
No, I think it was my beach house.
Anyway, would you like to see my new boat?
Are you even a real doctor?
'Cause you act like a janitor
who decided to have a little fun.
I am a real doctor.
And look, I even went through your pre-session
information sheets I asked y'all to fill out.
Here's Bobbie's.
And here is some of Isabella's.
So is this where you tell us about our hang-ups
and try to fix us?
It doesn't work that way, Bobbie.
See, this could take months
of peeling back the emotional layers
before we even begin to see what the real problems are.
No, I think I got y'all figured out.
Isabella, you'd rather analyze your feelings
than deal with 'em.
You think if you can put a name to 'em,
they'll just go away.
But sweetie, that ain't how feelings work.
I disagree.
Understanding is the first step to acceptance.
And I can't argue every Pinterest quote you've read.
OK, what about me?
Oh, you've got something going on.
Yeah.
But you're too afraid to look at it.
And until you do, you'll pretend there's not a problem.
And your relationships?
They'll continue to suffer.
OK, then!
Good to know. We done?
Well, I feel better.
So sure.
I could do you too, but I'm not going to.
Hey, what you thinkin'?
Uh, mostly how I wish you'd, uh,
quit staring at me like that.
Emmett, you're always so honest.
That's one of the things I love about you.
What?
Oh, don't worry.
I don't mean "love," love.
I would never say that first...
No matter how I felt.
Well, that's good to know.
Well, I could totally understand
why the guy might be nervous saying it,
but you can't win the prize
unless you shoot your shot, right, cowboy?
Pow, pow!
Pow, pow.
Yeah.
But are you drinking this water?
That's another thing I love about you.
You just take what you want.
You don't care!
Listen, Monica, can we talk?
Emmett, of course.
I'm all yours.
I mean, ears. I'm all ears.
Monica, less of this!
More of this!
Go ahead.
Uh, going out with you this past month has been--
it's been great and really, really fun.
You know, I told my mom the same thing about you.
You should meet her.
Hey, we could visit her grave together.
I want to go back to just being friends.
What?
I love spending time with you,
but I just don't have those feelings for you.
Monica, are you OK?
Can you--can you say something, please?
Oh...
I didn't mean to lead you on.
I didn't mean to do that.
Oh...
Oh, this is probably awful of me.
Can you not make those noises?
People are staring at you.
Are you breathing, Monica?
OK, you gotta breathe.
You know what?
Just go ahead and make the noise.
Oh...
Not today, Mama!
Not today!
Hey, slugger. How you doing?
Uh, still ticked off at that therapist.
Oh, forget about him.
He's a quack.
No, I mean, he was right.
He was just so dismissive.
What do you mean, he was right?
I mean, I do analyze my feelings to put a name to them.
That's why I study psychology.
That's why anybody studies psychology.
Mm-hmm.
Got a good point there.
But I don't do it to make the feelings go away.
I do it so I can understand them and accept them.
And for the record, I have never been on Pinterest.
Well, he might have been right about you,
but he was wrong about me.
No, he wasn't.
You definitely have issues you don't deal with.
I have issues because I was selling mocktails
and trying to help you?
Sorry I'm a terrible person.
Not about with me.
About with Emmett.
And that definitely hurt your relationship.
What hurt our relationship
was him keeping Daddy's secret from me.
Well, he kept it from me too!
If I can forgive him, why can't you?
Oh, I don't know.
But I bet you can tell me why.
I think it's because he reminds you of what Happy did.
You know what?
For your information, I've forgiven Daddy.
That's not that easy,
especially after what he did to you.
Not to me--
Mama.
To you, to Emmett-- everybody!
He hurt a lot of people!
How could he do that?
I don't know.
And I know you want to forgive him,
but you can't do that
unless you fully accept what he did first.
It's hard.
I loved him so much.
I can't handle not liking him.
Talking about it helps.
I was pretty unfair to Emmett, wasn't I?
Yeah, you were.
But it's never too late, you know.
You're right.
Hey, what do you say we both go apologize to Emmett,
see if he'll take us back?
Really? Yes!
I'm kidding.
It's just a me thing.
Oh, right.
I'm glad that you liked the aqua fresca,
but the recipe is an old family secret.
Oh, sorry, we're out of everything.
So?
How did it go? - Did you take my advice?
Yes.
And I hate myself.
What happened?
He took your advice when he broke up with Monica.
Maybe next time, keep it to yourself.
Hey, Emmett.
Not in the mood to talk right now, Bobbie.
I know, but I just heard about Monica.
- Did you? - Yeah.
Did you hear how I took that sweet, wonderful person
and ripped her heart out?
Not exactly like that.
You know, I used to be happy.
Not too high, not too low,
just, like, solid,
until I started dating again.
Funny you should bring that up.
I broke that girl's heart, Bobbie.
Just like you broke mine.
I know I did, and I'm--
I'm sorry.
That's it for me.
I'm done with dating.
From now on,
I just want to be solid.
Then I want that for you too.
I heard.
What are you gonna do?
Same thing he did for me.
Give him time.
You can come on in.
Monica Ulrich.
Pleasure.
Uh, where's your partner?
Sir, I'm a health inspector.
We work alone.
Oh, you mean personal partner.
Uh, yeah, I'm, uh--
uh, I don't have one.
OK, well, I'm a couples counselor.
Yeah, exactly, uh...
you see, my boyfriend broke up with me,
and I was hoping that you could teach me how to get him back.
Have a seat.
Well, this has been a fun week.
