I gotta say, those get more
and more appealing
every time you make them.
Yep.
Perfecting a coconut lime tart
is an on-going quest.
It's like a triple Axel
for a skater.
You're never sure if
you're gonna land it.
Well those win the gold medal.
When did you get
in this morning?
4:30.
Why so early?
The oven's acting up again,
I didn't want to take any
chances before the party.
Don't start.
We can't get a new oven
until we get customers.
If we don't have
a functioning oven
we're not gonna have
any customers at all.
Two chefs with
no business sense.
What were we thinking?
We weren't thinking.
We were dreaming.
Well that dream
is quickly turning
into a financial nightmare.
Alright, Mr. Sunshine,
cheer up.
We are going to be a huge
success, trust me.
Trust me.
Hello, you two.
Hi, Helen.
Would you like some olive bread?
Always.
Hey, mom.
I already have napkins.
Not as nice as these.
They were half price.
It was mandatory
that I buy them.
OK, well we'll use them
for the engagement party.
Did I tell you that I introduced
the happy couple?
I'm quite the match-maker.
Yes, you mentioned that.
Several times.
Six couples and counting is
a pretty good track record.
What time will
Tom and Jill be ready?
I told everyone to get here
at 6:00.
Well I, we, would like
to thank you
for having the party here.
We certainly could use
the business.
Well, the best food in town.
Where else would I have it?
OK, Marco?
Will you do decorations?
I have to get home
and get ready.
What are you wearing?
I have the blue wrap-around
dress from Hadley's.
Not the low cut red?
It's a party, mom, not a date.
Well, you never know
who you might meet.
Well, I'm gonna wear
the usual ensemble.
What do you think?
It's a good thing you can bake.
You look really good in red.
Am I too pushy with her?
Yes.
But you wear it very well.
Hi Claire, you don't know me,
but your mother suggested
I give you a call.
Seriously?!
Maybe we can grab
dinner tomorrow.
My name is Peter Bloom.
Call me back and let me know.
My number is 206.555...
No.
Who is Peter Bloom?
Peter, yes.
He came to an open house
of mine.
He didn't end up buying,
but a single man shopping
for a four bedroom?
I guess he wants to start
a family.
Mom, you have to stop
setting me up.
Claire.
Pretty soon your dad and I
are gonna be off
traveling the globe
and if he has his way we are
not gonna be home very much.
And I just... I hate the idea
of you being alone.
I'm not alone.
I'm here at the bakery 24/7,
which is exactly
where I want to be.
There is plenty of time for me
to find someone
and fall in love.
There is nothing wrong
with building your business
but you can't plan when
you're gonna fall in love.
Look. I love this place.
And it is enough for me.
It is more than enough,
believe me.
Hey.
Don't you look beautiful?
Thank you, dad.
Marco says that there's a wine
festival in Florence
that we would love.
Not a bad way to launch
our retirement.
Sounds nice.
I'm not ready for retirement.
I'm still in my prime.
OK, late prime maybe,
but that's as much
as I'll concede.
Please go mingle.
I have it all from here.
We're being dismissed.
I'd like to thank all of you
for coming,
and I'd like to raise a glass
and wish Jill and...
Tom?
Tom.
A lifetime of love
and happiness.
And I would like to toast
my aunt, Helen,
for introducing me and Tom.
We can't thank you enough.
I couldn't be happier
for you two.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
Alright, drinks are on my
big brother over at the bar.
Let's go.
Well, I'm glad someone
appreciates my advice.
Of course she does,
because you haven't been
advising her since birth.
What to eat, what to wear,
who to date.
Claire.
So dramatic.
You know, sometimes it takes
someone with perspective...
Mom, stop.
Please?
Stop intervening.
I'm perfectly happy as I am.
OK, I get it.
Loud and clear.
Good.
Now go have some fun.
Let's face it.
Sometimes we all need someone
to dance with.
Do you wanna dance?
Hey, cuz.
Hello.
So one of Tom's friends
wanted to meet you.
The one standing next to my mom?
Busted.
Yeah.
That's my cue to leave.
Thank you.
What part of
"I'm perfectly happy as I am"
do you not understand?
I was just going to say...
the tart was terrific.
That is my favourite thing
in the whole world.
What?
My daughter's smile.
So... Peter Bloom?
You are relentless.
I'm standing there in the
middle of the courtroom,
all eyes are on me, and
suddenly it occurs to me...
do-do you want some
more champagne?
No.
Because I have a whole lot
to celebrate here tonight.
Anyways, it occurs to me
that what I have is not
just a point of law
but an actual breach
of contract.
Needless to say, I won the case.
My goal is to have my own
firm by the time I'm 40.
Unfortunately, Peter,
my goal is to go to sleep.
I'm sorry, I've just been up
since dawn.
Yeah, sure.
It was awful!
Clearly this is not one of
your more inspired matches.
No one bats 1000.
He returned his entree, twice.
And, and he couldn't stop
talking about himself at the top
of his lungs.
Next time I'll be more careful.
My vetting will be exhaustive.
No.
No, there's not going
to be a next time.
No next time.
That's it.
That is the last straw.
Please, I told you I...
I will know when the right guy
comes along.
You gotta promise me, no more.
Mom, do you hear me?
Whatever you say.
Goodnight, dear.
Goodnight, mom.
You have to let her find love
in her own time,
on her own terms.
Hopefully in my lifetime.
I think she's still hurting that
it didn't work out last time.
She can't dwell on the past.
She needs to move on.
Maybe you're the one that needs
to move on, honey.
We need to book those tickets.
We'll get to it.
What's the reluctance?
We've been planning this new
chapter of our lives for years.
Our grand Italian adventure.
Well, I like this chapter.
I'm not ready to move on.
But we get the best of both.
Half a year traveling,
half a year at home...
I guess.
Stop guessing, and just...
do this with me.
I want to, Sam, I really do,
it's just... retirement.
Don't think of it as retirement.
Think of it as six months
vacation.
Well, it's a marker though.
Another name for "getting old".
I keep thinking I'm 23.
So?
Be 23 in Italy.
If you wanna stay busy
with work the other six months
you have that option.
Right.
We still have a lot of time
ahead of us.
If you keep feeding me kale,
we could live forever.
It's a deal.
Just understand I need a little
time to take it all in.
OK.
Thanks.
If I keep whining about Italy,
your father's gonna go alone
and I wouldn't blame him.
What are you so afraid of?
I don't know.
Losing my daily routine,
being away from you.
I mean, who am I
if not your mom?
I have a very precarious
sense of myself.
I'm nuts, right?
You're just figuring
that out now?
Look at this.
This one on the clearance rack
missing the skirt
and this discount beauty
missing the top.
You do have a good eye.
I do where you're concerned.
You see?
If I were in Italy that top
and that bottom
never would have met.
It's true.
Something to wear
on your next blind date?
That's not funny.
That's a good one.
Hey, my mom just texted, she got
us a gig catering a fundraiser
at an art gallery.
She might drive you crazy
but she is definitely
good for business.
Easy for you to say, she's
not micromanaging your life.
Maybe we can use this
opportunity to pass coupons
to the bakery.
Great, so now we're gonna
work for free?
No, on the contrary,
this gig actually affords us
a new oven.
OK, listen.
I know that this is a long shot,
but I know a guy who knows a guy
who could contact that online
restaurant critic.
The Wandering Gourmet.
Maybe we could get him
to come in.
A positive review
from him would...
Would be like winning
the lottery, I know.
Which is almost impossible.
Have a little faith.
On a lighter note,
the gas bill is overdue.
Great.
David?
Can I help you?
My name is Helen Michaels.
I'm actually Claire's mother.
Did something happen?
Is she OK?
No, no, no.
Nothing happened.
She's not even here.
She doesn't even know
about us meeting.
You're gonna find
this hilarious,
but I made that profile
on Destiny Match myself.
I was just trying to help her
find a boyfriend.
Can we sit?
Let me just start by saying...
I know how strange this must
all seem to you.
That would be an understatement.
Well the truth is
I am not even supposed
to be doing this.
My daughter, Claire,
if she knew I was doing
this again...
OK, wait, you've done
this before?
Well, only twice.
And it didn't really work out.
Mostly with sons of friends,
relatives of friends,
you know, the usual.
And don't worry,
that actually was her picture
on the profile.
Excuse me, I just need to ask.
Why are you telling me this?
Well, I suppose because
I wanted you to...
You know what?
I think I'm just gonna cut
my losses and say goodnight.
No, no.
No, wait.
It was nice to meet you.
Good luck finding
your daughter a date.
You're gonna need it.
Look, everything I wrote about
her was true.
Yeah, you left out the part
about her crazy mother.
Your house chardonnay, please?
Having a rough night.
You heard all that?
Sorry, it's a quiet bar.
Can anyone actually die
of embarrassment?
So let me get this straight.
You were posing as your daughter
on a dating site?
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
I'd be mortified if I were her.
I mean, I'm sure your heart
was in the right place.
My heart has a mind of its own.
Do you mind if I ask
what prompted
this strange behaviour?
I have no idea
what made me do it.
I mean, why did I even
come here tonight?
I promised my daughter
I would back off.
If she found out
she would disown me.
Well, for what it's worth,
my lips are sealed.
She's very pretty, by the way.
I'm sorry?
Just your daughter.
I saw a picture of her earlier
when you were showing the...
Yeah.
You're so sweet.
I'm...
I'm Helen, by the way.
Hi.
Eric Carlton.
So, what do you do, Eric?
I'm a pediatrician.
Are you married?
No, Helen, I'm not.
In fact, I'm waiting
for someone.
There she is.
Hey.
Hi, Eric. Sorry I'm late.
It's been one of those days.
Did you get a table?
Yes, it'll be ready any minute.
OK.
And before I forget, I can't
make that artsy fundraiser thing
on Saturday,
something's come up.
OK, that's fine.
I may need to get this.
I have a patient coming out
of surgery.
Just a second.
This is Doctor Dana Becker.
Let me guess.
Your first date?
Second.
It won't last.
Excuse me?
I'm a real estate agent.
After 20 years of selling houses
I can tell which
couples will last.
It's the respect, the laughter,
the look in the eyes.
Versus the ones who need me
to sell the house
when they split up.
You and Doctor Gorgeous
are not a good match.
OK.
Let me give you my card.
In case you're in the market.
Who was that woman?
Just a real estate agent.
Trying to sell me something.
Well, you would not believe
the day that I've had;
back to back surgeries
that lasted about six hours
and to top it off...
Hi.
I'm here to see
Dr. Eric Carlton?
And who's the patient?
I'm here alone.
It's a personal Matter.
Just tell him Helen is here.
Helen Michaels.
You're a real estate agent,
right?
That's right.
I'm Donna Stanton.
You sold me my house.
You're kidding!
It was a long time ago.
You helped us get the loan.
We could barely afford
the down payment.
Well isn't that great?
We still live there,
over in Kirkland.
Well, you just made my day.
Donna, I need you to...
- Hi.
- Hi.
Can I... help you?
I'm sorry, Mrs...
Helen. Michaels.
Yes, the real estate agent.
I remember.
I was just thinking about
our discussion the other night
and I was hoping I could buy you
a cup of coffee?
Helen and I go way back.
She sold me my house.
Yeah.
You don't say?
Well, there's a great coffee
shop just down the block.
Doctor Eric, will you sign
my cast?
You betcha, buddy.
Here, you come over here.
Let's take a look at this.
This is you hitting a homerun.
Coming around first base...
But I don't play baseball.
OK.
Well, what do you play?
I'm a science nerd.
Good for you.
I was a science nerd.
Alright, then this is you
winning the Nobel Prize
for curing broken arms.
Look at that.
What do you think?
Cool!
No.
What?
Looks like you've got a bit
of an owie behind your ear.
Let me take a look at that.
No, not another one...
There you go.
Thank you!
You're welcome, buddy.
That's very cute.
Yeah.
So how about it?
A quick cup of coffee?
I want to pitch you something
and if you're not interested
you'll never see me again.
You won't regret it.
You won't.
Trust her.
She'll find you a home
in no time.
OK, look.
I can meet you in 20 minutes.
But just for like five minutes.
I'm gonna quit while I'm ahead.
Just, down the block?
Just down the block.
Why can't I ever meet older,
married women?
Don't start, OK?
She's a real estate agent,
I met her the other night,
she probably just wants to sell
me something.
Your secret is safe with me.
Hey.
Sorry I'm late.
I had a baby with colic
and a sleepless mother.
Claire had colic.
She's over it now.
Forgive me...
I'm just a little hyper.
I've had two cups of coffee.
OK, let me cut to the chase.
I think you should meet
my daughter.
Yeah, didn't you say
the other night that
she was going to disown you?
She doesn't have
to know about my involvement.
Besides, didn't you say
your lips were sealed?
Yes, well,
that's when it didn't include me.
Dr. Carlton, Eric,
all you have to do is cross paths.
You'll see.
I know these things.
Yeah?
You know, I was there
the other night,
I would say that your batting
average is less than stellar.
Well, they can't all be
home runs.
But this, this is a sure thing.
I just know it is.
OK, well... you've got
my curiosity piqued.
What is your plan?
Well, the other night
I overheard
that you were going to the
fundraiser at the gallery?
I was going to.
But I'm not going now,
Dana can't make it.
Now you have a reason to go,
because Claire's gonna be there.
She owns a bakery.
Her and her partner have the
contract to cater the event.
I won't even tell her
you're going.
Or that I even met you.
You go, you meet her,
you decide.
I don't know.
She's funny and kind,
she puts up with me.
Did I mention she's
a pastry chef?
You'll gain a lot of weight
but you'll die happy.
You really are relentless.
Look, I'm not gonna say yes,
but I will think about it.
- OK.
- OK.
Fair enough.
There's just one little hitch,
though.
What?
Claire can't ever know we spoke.
It's much better if she thinks
she just met you by chance.
I'm not that comfortable lying.
Well, it's not a lie,
it's just something to omit.
You go to the fundraiser,
you meet her,
whatever happens, happens.
I don't know.
Look, you seem like a great guy.
And she is the most incredible
person I know,
and I swear to you I am not
just saying that
because I'm her mother.
Let me think about it, OK?
You won't regret it!
I promise!
Goodbye, Helen.
For a used oven it works great.
We're lucky to find one
with such low hours.
Too bad it doesn't come
with customers.
Well, my mom said we
should go all out
for the gallery fundraiser.
I'm thinking petit fours.
OK. But make sure
you use the glacé
and include the napoleons.
And your Mille-feuille
is amazing,
so I'll help you build it.
What?
She wants me to get my hair cut
for the catering gig?
What's wrong with my hair?
Nothing.
But it's your mother
we're talking about.
Hey.
So how did you meet the real
estate woman, anyway?
She approached me
at the Chameleon
while I was waiting for Dana.
Yeah.
Dr. Becker.
How's that going?
What, you're not attracted
to pretty and smart?
Of course I am,
it's just that she's kinda cold
and has no sense of humour.
Laughter is overrated.
So, are you buying?
What?
Property.
A house. A condo.
I am not buying a house
and I'm not dating
the real estate agent.
She's just trying to set me up.
Wants me to...
meet her daughter.
Well Helen did right by me
all those years ago.
I think you should go out
with her.
I don't know.
I feel like if the daughter
is anything like the mom,
she's probably crazy.
You know what?
The way she describes her, she
actually sounds really cool.
My man, don't do it.
It's a mistake.
This from a man who
bought his wife a blender
for their anniversary.
I will have you know that
was the Cadillac of blenders.
Listen, there's no rush
because I have until Saturday,
but I really appreciate
the concern you have
for me, thank you.
What?
This is going to look great
on you at the gallery event
tomorrow night.
It's beautiful, but
I'm just the caterer.
I'm not the belle of the ball.
This is an important event.
Besides, I got it on sale.
I couldn't resist.
Thank you, but
you shouldn't have.
You're a vision.
Now, what are you gonna do
for shoes?
I think I have those
open toed pumps.
No, those are so plain.
That dress requires
a new pair of shoes.
Maybe.
I wish the event was as big of
a hit as your desserts!
I'll gain five pounds if
I don't watch myself.
Well I'm glad you like them.
I also have a restaurant
downtown...
Hold that thought.
Hi.
Hi!
How is your night going?
Good.
I'm Eric.
These deserts are incredible.
Where can I find more?
I actually have a
restaurant downtown.
You don't say?
What is it called?
It's called Gilded
Sweets Bakery.
Great name.
Do you have any cards?
As a matter of fact I do.
- 326 Franklin Street.
- Yes.
May I have a card?
You can have this card.
I can get another one.
The petit fours
are quite unique.
Yes. I use almond extract
to counter the sweetness.
Well, all the desserts
are quite exceptional.
I'll have to stop by sometime.
That would be great.
You have to stop doing that,
I'm going run out of cards.
OK.
I'll have you know
I am expecting
some sort of kick-back.
OK, well you know where I am,
come any time you want.
All the pastries you can eat,
on the house.
Great.
It's really thinned out in here,
maybe we can take
a look at some art downstairs?
Sure.
What do you see?
I see the weird face of a
yellow man about to eat a fish.
While in a burning forest.
That's open for interpretation
I guess.
I guess that's the point.
I have been on my feet all
day and these are new shoes.
My gosh, you should take
your shoes off.
Art is so much better barefoot.
I prefer pieces that depict
the human condition.
Such as...?
Edward Hopper.
Windsor Homer.
Georgia O'Keefe.
Artists that break your heart
in the best way.
What about you?
Mine is super corny.
I don't usually divulge
that type of information
on a first date.
That's presumptuous.
Is it?
No, I swear, I won't judge.
Norman Rockwell.
I like the way he captures
children.
I completely agree.
He really captures
people's innocence.
We're closing now.
I wanted to thank you
and let you know
I'll be using you again.
Great.
She's got a little restaurant
downtown.
I'll be sure to stop by.
326 Franklin.
Say hi to your mom.
I will.
My mom got me this gig.
Alright, I really should
pack up.
OK, well let me help you
pack up.
It's absolutely not necessary.
No, I'd like to.
Really?
Really.
OK.
Thanks so much for your help.
Yeah, you bet.
So... what do you do
with all the leftovers?
Well, unfortunately
they don't really keep.
You don't throw them out,
do you?
Sadly, that's often
what happens, yeah.
I know someone that would
absolutely love those.
It might be a little unorthodox,
but it is worthwhile.
It might just be the best part
of your evening.
I don't know if that's possible
but I'm willing to give it a shot.
- OK, great.
- OK.
- Hi, Dr. Carlton.
- Hi, Emily.
This is my friend, Claire.
Hi.
Hello.
I got stung by a bee
and I'm allergic.
I got all swollen up.
Yeah. But you are gonna be
just fine.
Right?
We brought you some
yummy treats.
How come?
Because you were such
a brave girl.
- I was?
- Yeah.
My mom says I'm a handful.
Well, you're a brave handful.
Do you wanna try one?
OK, take your pick.
Good choice.
- Did you make this?
- I did.
- They're really good.
- Yeah?
Thank you.
Thank you.
How about I bring you
some more tomorrow.
Would you like that?
Yeah?
You can finish that one
here if you want.
So if you're hungry I'll have
some waiting for you later.
OK.
- Hi, sweetheart.
- Hi, mom.
My friend at the gallery
said that you did a great job.
Did you have a good time?
I did except my feet were
k*lling me.
I had to take off my new shoes.
I was just walking around
the gallery barefoot.
That's it?
That was the highlight of
your evening?
Pretty much.
That's all you have to tell me?
I mean, I didn't really take
too much to the art.
I'm glad the job went well.
Maybe it'll bring in
some fresh customers.
Yeah.
Maybe it will.
I know nothing.
OK, OK, you're right.
I liked her.
Yep, I knew it.
Tell us everything.
Well, there's actually not
that much to tell.
I mean, we met at the gallery,
got to know each other a little
bit and took leftover pastries
to the kids at the hospital.
Sounds like my kinda date.
Don't listen to him, I think
it sounds romantic.
It actually really was.
And she's OK with letting
her mother
choose her dates for her?
Well, that's the problem,
she actually doesn't know that.
That is a problem.
I told you it wasn't gonna work.
What are you gonna do?
I don't know.
I'm sure it'll work itself out.
What?
OK.
Thank you.
- Great news.
- What?
We actually made more
than we spent yesterday.
- That's fantastic.
- I know.
For the first time like ever,
I actually feel like we have
a fighting chance.
Careful, you're starting
to sound like an optimist.
Well, we keep filling up
the place like we have
for the last couple of days,
you can call me whatever
you want.
Speaking of customers,
is it my imagination or have
we become like the hotspot
for the medical community?
Yeah, I noticed that.
I think it's Eric.
I think he's sending people
our way.
He's really sweet.
- You like this guy?
- I don't know... maybe.
It was just so romantic how
we met at the gallery, but...
I'm still getting to know him,
so time will tell.
I'm just shocked Helen had
nothing to do with it.
I know, can you believe it?
She's gonna k*ll me when
she finds out.
Wait a minute.
You haven't told her yet?
No. Are you kidding me?
You know how she is.
Besides, I love that
we met by chance.
So for now, Helen can wait.
Come on.
On y Va.
Fancy meeting you here.
Yeah, what are the odds?
I'm sorry, I was in
the neighbourhood
and I just had to know
what happened with Claire.
She hasn't mentioned it
and I can't ask.
OK, seriously.
You just need to let
this thing go.
I promise, I will.
I just need to know
what happened.
I liked her.
I knew it!
So you hit it off?
As far as I was concerned, yeah.
So what's the problem?
Honestly? Her mother.
It's true.
You're right.
I'm leaving.
I was never here.
We never had this conversation.
I'm serious, Helen.
I think you should call her.
- You're the problem!
- OK, bye!
Don't forget to call her!
This is the best, and
the messiest, burger
I think I've ever had.
How'd you find this place?
Well, the owner's daughter
was a patient of mine.
He insisted I come down here
and try it out
and I have been hooked
ever since.
OK, I have to ask. I'm curious.
Why pediatrics?
Well, I think it's
because it's just what
I've always wanted to be
since I was a kid.
What about you?
Why pastry chef?
When I was a kid my mom used
to let me help her make dinner,
and dessert was by far
the most fun to make.
And, I don't know, cookies
became brownies,
brownies became cupcakes,
cupcakes became tarts,
and on and on
until the kitchen was the
best place in the house.
I think those were my favourite
memories from my childhood.
I know it's just pastries,
but for me it's a form
of expression.
Well, I'm no expert,
but I can tell you that you're
really good at what you do.
Thank you.
What about the restaurant?
How did that transpire?
Well, I went to go look at
places to rent and Marco,
my business partner,
showed up at the exact
same time I did.
We both couldn't afford
the place on our own
so we became partners.
I guess it was just meant to be.
Or just good timing.
I don't know, maybe
it's the same thing.
If you didn't go to the gallery
we would never have met.
And I would not be having
the best hamburger
I have ever had.
Can I ask you something
really serious?
Yeah.
Can we order more french fries?
Only if we also get
another chocolate shake.
That sounds like a plan.
Yes.
I gotta say, I'm having a really
good time with you, doctor.
I gotta say, I'm having a
good time with you, chef.
What are you doing Friday night?
I don't know, what am I doing?
- We got it!
- We got what?
It's unofficial,
unconfirmed,
but I just got a tip that The
Wandering Gourmet is coming in.
We're gonna get a review.
Hopefully. Probably.
Here's the thing.
You never know when.
You don't even know
what the guy looks like.
I mean, he could bust you
or praise you
and you'll never even know
he's here.
OK, we need to change our menu.
We just have to pack the place
with satisfied customers,
and maybe your boyfriend
can bring in
some more of his friends.
He's not my boyfriend,
we're just dating.
Have you told your mother
about it?
No.
No, as soon as she knows
I like a guy
she starts naming our grandkids.
OK, but you know how she feels
when you keep her in the dark.
I do.
I know that.
We're actually having
lunch today,
I'm sure she's gonna
grill me per usual.
- We're gonna get a review!
- Yes.
We're gonna get a review!
We need customers!
When are you guys leaving?
As soon as amore mio
picks a date.
You know, if we don't get
tickets soon,
our whole itinerary
gets scrapped.
We're eating our way
across Italy.
You two are such foodies.
I'll probably gain 50 pounds.
Is there any part of this trip
that you like?
I can think of worse ways
to spend my old age.
Old age.
My point exactly.
I feel like we're packing it in.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Sorry I'm late.
- Hey.
Marco and I are re-doing
the entire menu
for this phantom reviewer.
He better show up.
Well your tiramisu is
the best on the planet, so...
That's a tiny bit over the top
but I appreciate the sentiment.
Well, hang in there, honey.
Every new business
is slow to take off.
Mushroom risotto?
Just a little bit.
It smells so good.
But I have to get back to work.
How's my favourite niece?
I am...
I'm fine, Uncle Arnie.
Thank you.
Jill tells me you met
a nice fellow?
That's what I wanted to talk
to you about.
It's really new so don't get
too excited.
Does this new guy have a name?
Yes, Doctor Eric Carlton.
A doctor.
- What field of medicine?
- He's a pediatrician.
Well, I like David or Diane
for your first born.
- That joke never gets old.
- No.
Well, maybe it's not a joke
this time.
I barely know him.
Well, what you know,
you like, right?
Mom?
Take it easy.
You haven't even met him
and you're meddling.
You're right.
If it works out, fine.
And if not, no big deal.
More risotto, anyone?
That was way too matter-of-fact.
Over the top or matter-of-fact,
which do you prefer?
Something in between
would be nice.
Fine.
Name your first born
whatever you please.
Right.
She's also really good
with kids.
Because she gave your patient
a cookie?
OK, it's just I don't know
how to get around this problem
with her mother.
I don't think you can.
That woman is obsessed.
You're probably right.
I just, I really like this girl,
Nate.
Careful.
The carbs are clouding
your judgement.
How about that guy right there?
That could be him
with his designer glasses.
He's meeting somebody.
Look at this guy,
he's definitely a critic.
He's all judgmental.
A critic who's meeting his wife
and baby?
I don't think so.
What about her?
Claire, she comes in every
morning like clockwork.
Double macchiato
and a blueberry scone.
The food was great.
I especially enjoyed
the olive bread.
Thank you.
I really did enjoy the food.
Thank you for coming.
Maybe he's the phantom critic.
Could be.
Thank you for sending
all your friends in.
It was very sweet.
Thank you.
So, your family, do
they live here too?
Connecticut.
Or else I would have sent them
as well, I promise.
Is that where you grew up?
Yep, Stanford, Connecticut
since I was three years old.
That's where my dad
did his residency.
He's a cardiologist.
I guess you could say my future
in medicine was inevitable.
How about your dad?
He is a financial advisor,
but he and my mom
are newly retired
and about to travel
to Italy together.
They actually, they met
in a college bookstore.
There was one copy of
Room With a View,
which is set in Italy.
They both needed it for an exam
so they shared it.
And by the end of the book
they were in love.
- That's a great story.
- Yeah.
Just think, if the clerk
had more copies,
I wouldn't be here.
I think you should track down
that clerk,
give her a box of your pastries.
It's the least you can do.
OK, I'll get right on that.
I must look a mess.
I usually wear half
of what I bake.
I think you look perfect.
Did I ever tell you when I
was five I had my first eclair?
The waiter was French and I kept
thinking that he said "Claire",
so I thought he'd named
the dessert after me.
It was hilarious.
That's hilarious.
Helen.
Hello.
What a nice surprise.
I need to see you right away.
Sure.
Is something wrong?
Yeah, we have a problem.
But I thought everything
was going so well.
Yeah, that's the problem.
Perhaps I could show you the
house after you get off work?
Is Claire there?
Not exactly.
I'll be down in just a minute,
Sam.
- Your husband?
- Right.
Can you meet at the Chameleon?
Seven o'clock would be
just fine.
Bye.
I thought we were going out
for dinner?
It's just a quick showing,
it shouldn't take long.
I'll meet you at the restaurant.
Hey, what's going on?
I think I'm falling
for your daughter.
And this is a problem
because...?
Because every time she talks
about you and how she and I met,
I have to lie.
And she thinks it was fate
that brought us together.
But it was her mother.
We need to tell her the truth.
OK, but please let me do it
otherwise she will
never forgive me.
OK.
But you have to do it soon,
because the longer you wait
the bigger the lie becomes
and then neither of us
are going to be able to save
this relationship.
The Wandering Gourmet
does not pull any punches.
Listen to this scathing review
for Etoiles de Danse.
"I had the misfortune of
ordering the trout almandine
"which was dry as a bone."
No, I know that chef.
Poor guy.
It gets worse.
"The fois gras was as
forgettable as the ambiance.
"Cold, bland, no panache."
What if this backfires, Marco?
Maybe we should do
something about the lighting.
Or some fresh flowers,
or maybe some linen...
OK, I'm having nightmares
wondering if this guy's
gonna show up
and ruin our lives.
Or save us.
One positive review from this
guy could change everything.
Well, we're hanging on
by a very thin thread here.
I say we give the restaurant
a little make-over
before he gets here.
I knew I should have
become a fireman.
Hi mom.
Hi sweetheart.
I'm kinda busy.
Can I call you later?
I really need to talk to you.
OK, but not now.
I need to fix up the restaurant.
I have to go shopping.
Well, I can go with you.
Shopping for what?
Panache.
I'm on my way.
Claire and I are going shopping.
I thought we were going to see
the travel agent today?
Maybe later.
Later?
Don't be like that.
Claire needs me.
Well, she's a grown woman,
she can shop alone.
It's not just that.
- She and I need to have a talk.
- About what?
This doctor she's been seeing.
It's just a little girl talk.
Don't start interfering, Helen.
My interfering days are done.
That's what I wanted
to tell her.
She knows that you love her,
that's all that matters.
This would be great
for serving pastries.
Well, we'll get two.
They're half off.
Great.
Look at this tablecloth.
That's nice.
Listen.
I wanted to talk to you
about something, darling.
About what?
This doctor you've been dating.
Eric?
You're gonna love him.
He's kind, he's honest.
I really feel like he's someone
I can trust.
And did I mention that
he is gorgeous?
I mean, it was just so romantic
the way we met,
it's kind of like you and dad.
Just all these people
in the gallery
and somehow we found each other.
Clearly we were meant to meet.
They're practically
giving these away.
What about one of these on
every table with an arrangement?
Maybe not?
What do you think?
What do I think?
I think from now on you should
just make all your own choices.
Just asking about the vase.
Aside from my love life, I
really value your opinion, mom.
Helen is calling Claire now.
It's a little late in the
game for that, don't you think?
I know, maybe.
I mean, I wanted to tell
her myself,
it's just that Helen insisted
that she tell Claire.
She's right, you can't come
between a mother
and her daughter.
That's right.
I just wonder
why she's not calling.
Who?
Helen or Claire?
To be honest, at this point I'll
take a call from either one.
Look at it this way:
if it doesn't pan out
with Claire,
the lovely Doctor Dana Becker
is still waiting in the wings.
I ran into her in the elevator.
She asked about you.
I think you're missing
the point.
He's in love with Claire.
You're in love with her now?
I don't know.
Look, all I know for sure
is I don't want to lose her.
At all.
So... do you think
I should call her?
- No!
- Yes!
And so, amore mio,
we start in Venice,
we head south to Tuscany...
muito romantico.
Si.
And then Pisa,
and then Florence.
Como estai?
How are you?
Don't ask.
Did everything go OK
with Claire?
It was fine.
Just fine?
There was so much
I wanted to say
and I just couldn't find
the words.
Now it may be too late.
What do you mean?
You know, if we go on this trip.
"If"?
What happened to "when"?
There's a lot on my mind, Sam.
Can we just-can we talk
about this some other time?
You know, if going to Italy is
going to make you so miserable,
let's forget it.
That's not what I mean.
I just wanted to make you
happy and...
I'm not sure I know how to do
that anymore.
If you figure it out,
let me know.
Sam...
No, I'm not making
any more plans.
Italy will still be there
next year.
It's you and me
I'm worried about.
Hi. What are you doing here?
I just...
I wanted to come see you.
Well, hello.
Hey.
Come in.
- I tried calling you earlier.
- My phone died.
It probably went straight
to voice mail.
Right.
Yeah, I just...
I wanted to know how
you were feeling.
Right now I'm tired.
I meant about us.
I don't know what
you want me to say.
Just the truth.
The truth is I'm confused.
- And you should be.
- Are you confused?
- No, I'm concerned.
- About what?
Sorry... how was...
how was your day today?
I read a horrible review
on another restaurant
so I decided to spruce
this place up
and my mom and I went shopping.
Right.
And how did that go,
with your mom?
Great.
Good. That's great.
What?
My mom and I always go
shopping together.
Yes, but today went really well.
Yeah.
Yeah, I got a couple
tablecloths and some trays.
And-and you're not mad?
No, I'm not mad.
They were half price.
And I talked to my mom
and I told her about you
and how we met and they want
to meet you.
- That's great.
- Yeah.
So I was thinking maybe
this weekend?
- Fantastic.
- Yeah?
OK.
I'm so sorry, I just couldn't
close the deal.
All you did was shop.
That's right.
Thank you for understanding.
No, I don't understand.
Of course not.
I'm confused.
Are you speaking cryptically
or literally?
Exactly.
We need to meet.
Great.
Just text me when and where.
I appreciate you giving me
a second chance
to earn your business.
I'm going for a run.
Now he's going for a run.
Great.
Here we are, almond croissant,
tiramisu.
Enjoy.
Do you think that's him?
I don't know, everyone's
looking like a critic to me now.
Yeah, I got this.
Yeah?
OK.
Hello.
How are you?
Our specials today
are brie and fruit
with freshly baked
rosemary bread,
home made scones
with raspberry glaze
and of course our
coconut lime tart.
Why "of course"?
Well, because
our coconut lime tart
is one of our most
popular items.
So of course it is
one of our specials.
Very well.
I'll let you know
when I've decided.
Great.
Well, you just take your time.
I don't know.
Marco, he ate the croissant,
every last bite!
Yes.
And a scone, too.
Do you think I should offer
him anything else?
No, we don't want him to suspect
that we know that it's him.
Let's just let him enjoy
his coffee.
OK.
Who is she?
I don't know, maybe
it's part of his cover.
OK, go find out.
No.
Go, go, go.
Hello.
What can I get you two?
You must be Claire.
Yes, I am.
I'm Dr. Carlton's receptionist.
He suggested me and
my husband come in.
So you're not a restaurant
critic?
Excuse me?
I'm an accountant.
Great. That's all we needed.
Excuse me.
Back away.
You know, the food is good
but the service is
a little peculiar.
- Mom, could you just...
- OK.
Just one second.
- I guess he hasn't told her yet.
- Who hasn't told who what?
I completely forgot
I have a showing.
OK, well...
call me later?
I have good news.
What?
I talked to Eric and we're all
getting together this weekend.
We are?
I thought you'd be excited.
I am, very excited!
- Gotta go.
- OK.
So why didn't you just tell her?
I tried, but she kept talking
about you
and how happy she was.
I just didn't have the heart.
Or the courage.
Take your pick.
- The longer we wait...
- I know. I know.
I went to the bakery today
to try to tell her again,
but Donna from your office
was there.
- What?
- Yeah.
Did she say anything?
I have no idea.
The second I saw her I
hightailed it out of there.
This is not gonna end well.
It looks like my meddling
has finally ruined everything.
No.
Look, if it wasn't for you I
never would have met Claire
in the first place so for that,
thank you.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Looks good.
Nice try, Arnie.
It's ridiculous.
I ordered it a month ago
as a surprise for Helen.
It didn't seem so big online.
It's nice.
She'll love it.
Listen, Sam, I need to talk
to you about something.
What's up?
Well, I was running some
errands downtown and
I hope I'm doing
the right thing.
I saw Helen walking
in Waterfront Park.
Yeah, so?
She was with a man.
Sure.
She meets with clients
all the time.
Well, this looked like more
than just a client.
Arnie.
Whatever it is, it isn't
what you're thinking.
I took a picture of them
with my phone.
I printed out a copy.
I'm sorry, Sam.
Look, I have no idea who he is,
but trust me, it's not
what you think.
- You're sure about that?
- Very sure.
OK.
But if I know my wife, she's
definitely up to something.
Like what?
That's what I intend
to find out.
Alright.
Unbelievable.
Sam? I'm home.
I picked up some salmon.
I thought we could marinate it
in a mustard sauce.
I'm guessing you're not
in the mood for fish?
We need to talk.
Is this about Italy?
Italy is the least
of our problems.
What are you talking about?
I'm talking about
George and Neil...
Who?
And this guy in the park.
How could you do this
to your own daughter?
- How did you get this?
- Arnie saw you two.
- Who is this guy?
- That's Eric.
Claire's boyfriend?
Sam, I was only trying to help.
Tell her Helen, or I will!
I went online posing as Claire
in the hopes of finding her
a date.
When they found out I was her
mother they ran for the hills.
As they should have.
Eric was sitting at the bar
watching all of this.
We struck up a conversation
and ten minutes in
I knew he was
the one for Claire.
This is so wrong
in so many ways.
I know.
They're so perfect together
and I may have ruined it.
You have to tell Claire.
I'm serious, Helen.
If you don't, I will.
And this new obsession
with match-making has to stop.
Actually, I've been match-making
since the day we met.
What are you talking about?
That day at the bookstore?
Yeah?
There was another copy of
"A Room With a View".
You were so nice and I wanted
to get to know you,
so I hid the other copy.
So my favourite story
about us is a lie?
Great.
I've been carrying around
that secret for 34 years.
Forgive me if I don't sympathize
with your burden.
Well, maybe this is
a better story.
I had an instant crush
and so I acted fast.
And here we are, a
lifetime later, still in love.
Say what you will about
my methods,
but sometimes I do get it right.
I doubt your daughter sees
it that way.
You know, the day we met,
you didn't have
to manipulate fate.
I never would have let you go.
If you could make a wish
in that fountain,
what would you wish for?
An honest wife.
You said that too fast.
How about you?
- Would you want a wish?
- Yes.
Another 34 years
with the love of my life.
It really is big, isn't it?
Eric, it's me.
Sam knows.
What?
He says he's gonna tell Claire.
I knew this would happen.
I know I'm preaching
to the choir.
This review could make
or break us.
OK, well maybe we can take
a few more catering gigs
to stay afloat
before The Wandering Gourmet
wanders our way.
What if we're counting
on something
that's not gonna happen?
I need you to stay positive,
partner.
Aye, aye, captain.
I think I'll wander home.
See you in the morning.
Alright.
I can't give up on you.
I won't.
Hello?
Hey, it's me.
It's Eric.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I hope you start making
a habit out of this.
I'd like to.
Do you want some napoleons
or cherry scones?
Take your pick.
Maybe later.
OK, well how about the hospital?
We could bring them to the kids.
Not tonight.
Alright, well I just have
to get something out front.
Look, Claire, there's something
I need to tell you.
This happens all the time.
Just another thing
to fix and pay for.
Yeah.
So, look, I wanted
to tell you...
Tell me what?
- Just about the night we met.
- Very romantic.
Yes, it was very romantic,
but...
it wasn't by accident.
So you agree with me then?
Sorry, agree with what?
That it was fate that
brought us together.
Here.
Flashlight on it.
I... have a candle.
- That's better.
- It is better.
- Great.
- There you go.
What do we do?
I don't know, I'm just a doctor.
Well, I'm just a baker,
so clearly two professionals
that are completely useless
in this situation.
That's it.
The breaker box.
Where's the breaker box?
- You are smart.
- Right? OK.
The lights are off
in the kitchen.
I need to check the fridge.
It's off!
Everything is going to spoil!
I have to call my mom,
she knows a good electrician.
Are you OK?
Yeah, yeah I'm good.
Who are you calling?
My mom.
Who is that?
That's Eric.
He's there?
Yes.
The lights went out
in the bakery.
I'll call my electrician
and send him over.
Are you OK?
No.
The electricity went out.
But nothing else is wrong?
Isn't that enough?
Sam, she's with Eric.
Did he tell her about
your match-making?
Apparently not.
Maybe I can have the electrician
tell her.
Joke all you want but
you have to deal with this.
You, not Eric.
This is your mess.
I know, I know, I just...
I don't know how or when
or what to say.
More importantly, how are
you going to explain to her
why you did it?
I don't wanna go there
right now.
It's probably because I'd
rather meddle in Claire's life
than deal with my own.
Well, why don't you try
telling her that?
It's a good opener.
Your guy was great.
It took four hours but he
finally got the lights on.
Said it was faulty wiring
in the walls.
Eric helped him out.
Speaking of Eric...
And then, after all that,
he goes back to the hospital
because a little kid has
an ear infection.
Darling, I...
I love that he's a pediatrician.
I love... I love
everything about him.
Hey hon.
Hey.
Your mother has something
she wants to tell you.
Well first you
must have a scone.
I salvaged them from the fridge.
They're your reward
for finding him.
Thank you.
- Finding who?
- The electrician.
Who do you think
I'm talking about?
I'll tell her, I promise.
A full confession.
It has to be today.
Mom.
What is this?
So you find these guys online,
meet them in a bar,
and that's how you found Eric?
But he wasn't one of those.
Actually, he was there
on a date.
OK, so he witnessed
your insanity
and he still thought it was a
good idea to meet your daughter?
Not quite.
I had to convince him,
so I went to his office and...
You did what?
I'm trying to confess here.
And so I sort of arranged
for you to meet at the gallery.
But I did not arrange
that magical moment
when you two first
saw each other.
You were there?
Yes.
She didn't tell me that, either.
You didn't tell me that.
Don't blame Eric, blame me.
I can't believe he would sign on
for something so crazy.
He wanted to tell you.
Yeah, well he had
ample opportunity.
- He was afraid you'd be mad.
- Well I am!
I am mad!
- Honey, I'm so sorry.
- So am I.
We could always put up a sign.
"Closed due to heartbreak".
No, I'll be fine.
Maybe.
That bad?
I don't know.
I think I'd convinced myself
that I had all the time
in the world to find the man
of my dreams
and suddenly he's right
in front of me.
And the fairytale begins,
but lo and behold my mother has
orchestrated the entire thing.
Nothing is ever just my own.
And this time I just don't know
that I can forgive her.
Is that Eric or your mother?
Eric.
Sooner or later you're gonna
have to talk to him.
Not now.
Not until I figure out
what I'm gonna do.
OK.
I'm gonna go. You need a lift?
No, I'm good.
- OK. See you in the morning?
- Yeah.
I had to see you.
I have a long day ahead of me.
I can come back tonight.
No, I don't think
it's a good idea.
I just need some time
to figure this out.
We really need to talk.
I'm not even talking
to my mother right now
and she's my best friend.
Or my worst enemy.
I'm not really sure
which one anymore.
I just... I feel we owe it
to ourselves
to see where this goes.
Don't you?
I'm sorry, I can't...
I can't do this.
Claire...
She won't talk to me.
She won't talk to me, either.
Let's make a pact.
Whoever she forgives first,
we'll get her to forgive
the other.
I don't think you and I should
be making any more pacts.
Yeah, you're right.
You don't have anything to worry
about, though.
She's gonna forgive you,
you're her mother.
I know how Claire feels.
I felt the same way
about my mother.
She was always telling me
what to do.
Always trying to plan my life.
But she meant well.
Sounds to me like you're
just repeating her behaviour.
Is that your medical opinion,
doctor?
Well, I do deal with
a lot of moms.
What about your mom?
She is very opinionated.
But warm.
Funny.
Who does that remind me of?
How about that guy
in the corner?
The one with the bow-tie?
He's arrogant, he certainly
fits the profile.
OK, so we'll just be really,
really nice to him.
Of course.
Because I'm usually so rude
to our customers.
Come on.
You know that's not
what I'm talking about.
She looks familiar.
I think she's one of
my mom's friends.
OK, I'll take her, you
concentrate on bow-tie.
Offer him something
not on the menu.
OK.
Hello. May I help you?
What do you suggest?
Well I would strongly suggest
the spinach prosciutto croissant
followed by a chocolate eclair
and I just baked a
beautiful olive bread.
You could always take that home.
Alright then.
I'll have everything
you just recommended.
I just hope it's as good
as you make it sound.
It will be.
Would you like a pastry?
- I think I've had quite enough.
- Great.
Well perhaps I could refill
your coffee?
No, I'm done.
Thank you.
OK. Thank you.
Do you think that's him?
Yeah, bow-tie, arrogant,
it's gotta be him.
Thank you.
Did Claire know you were
coming in?
Probably not.
She's in the back.
Thanks.
You weren't answering your phone
so I thought I'd just drop by.
I'd like to order some
humble pie, please.
I really don't have time
for this right now.
I am so sorry, sweetie.
Can you ever forgive me?
You need to let me live
my own life.
I know, I will.
You've said this before
and yet here we are.
But this time I mean it,
I promise.
No more meddling,
no more blind dates.
I really think Eric is the one.
Your promise is barely
ten seconds old
and already you are giving
me your opinion.
Claire, I'm sorry but I believe
in love and marriage
and happily ever after,
and I just want that for you!
So do I!
I want that, too, but I need
to find it on my own.
What if your mom
had hand-picked dad?
It would have taken the romance
right out of it.
I need to make my own mistakes,
I need to find my own way!
I never realized that I was...
You are pushing me away!
It feels like you don't trust
that I can handle my own life!
That's not true.
It's just that...
it's my way of hanging on.
Not just to you, but me.
The mom you go shopping with.
The one you call when you need
to share a secret
or need encouragement.
The mom you need.
Not this woman.
The one who's about to retire
from who she used to be.
You're always gonna
be my mother.
And I'm always going
to need you.
Even if you drive me crazy.
Are we still allowed to hug?
Yes.
- I'm sorry, sweetheart.
- It's OK.
Here you go.
Let me know if you need
anything else.
No.
I'm fine.
- Can I ask you a question?
- Sure.
Is there always so much drama
in here?
You have no idea.
Enjoy.
You know what?
Maybe it's for the best.
I'll just throw all my energy
into my work for a little while.
No, that's a bad idea.
You have to call her.
Unfortunately I think that ship
has sailed.
You need to stop feeling sorry
for yourself and just call her,
or she will move on.
Hi.
Hey.
Look... I was just hoping
we could talk.
I don't know.
One cup of coffee,
that's all I ask.
You have to let me explain.
Claire... please.
OK.
I'll meet you in an hour
at that place near your office.
OK, great.
Yes.
Mind if I join you?
Dana.
Actually...
I'm sorry.
I'm waiting for someone.
OK.
I just wanted to make
something clear.
I know I can be
a little removed,
but I'm interested, Eric,
in case it doesn't show.
Dana, I'm seeing someone.
And she's gonna be here
any minute.
Is it serious?
It is for me.
Yeah.
Good luck.
Hey.
Who was that?
That's a doctor I work with.
Dana.
That look she gave me,
I assumed she was more
than just a colleague.
Were you two dating?
No.
I mean, we did.
It's...
You were with her
when you met my mother.
Your mom told you I was
on a date that night?
This is a bad idea.
No, look.
We're not dating at all anymore.
It was a couple times.
It's just you now, I promise.
- Claire, please.
- Eric, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
We got it!
What?
We got a review!
What?
What does it say?
I don't know, my buddy
just texted me.
I'm just bringing it up
right now.
OK, hold on.
"Gilded Sweets Bakery
is a new entry
"into the overcrowded category
of little luncheonettes."
That's not a very good start.
Yeah, well just keep reading.
"But this little place
is a gem."
We're a hit!
He likes us!
Let me read.
"The olive bread
was the real thing,
"made with enormous skill."
Your father's recipe.
And his father before him.
Papa!
They'd be very proud.
OK.
"The delicate croissant filled
with spinach and prosciutto
"was a delightful surprise."
Wait, he didn't order that,
did he?
No.
But I know who did.
The Wandering Gourmet
is a woman!
Well that would explain
the good taste.
"The chocolate eclair
was beyond compare,
"traditional yet complex.
"My compliments to the chef."
Yes, yes, very nice.
OK, OK.
"The ambience was
equally appealing
"and the owners provided
wonderful drama,
"both in and out of
the kitchen."
My mom is gonna like that.
"I give this wonderful bakery a
very enthusiastic four stars!"
Yes!
That's like the highest ranking!
We did it! We did it!
We did it!
I'm so proud of us!
See?
You always knew it.
- We have to get more tables.
- And staff.
Thank you.
Maybe we could buy
the place next door.
Now you wanna spend money?
Thank you so much.
Can you believe it?
We're out of olive bread.
I'm gonna have to get baking.
What can I get you?
Honey, this is delicious.
I wanted to make something
really special.
What's the occasion?
Let's just say I've turned over
a new leaf.
From this point on I plan on
letting things unfold
without my involvement.
Does Claire know about this?
She's the one who gave me
my marching orders.
So I'm to get on with my life
and let her get on with hers.
She's a wise woman,
that daughter of yours.
If she and Eric ever get
together that'd be great.
From now on, her love life
is none of my business.
But who I love is up to me.
How's the carbonara?
I mean, only the Italians
could think of putting bacon
and eggs on pasta.
Those Italians think
of everything.
We'll have to go there sometime.
Are you ready for dessert?
We just started dinner.
I can't wait.
Cappuccino cannolis,
a present from Claire.
And here is a little something
from me.
What is this?
Two tickets to Venice?
Then Tuscany, then the coast,
then wherever you want
to go, Mr. Michaels.
I don't care where I go,
as long as you're beside me,
Mrs. Michaels.
And then we finish the trip
in Florence.
I can't believe you guys
are leaving so soon.
Yep, one week from tomorrow.
I almost wish we were
there already.
Claire, that's beautiful.
Hello.
Hi.
I just wanted to thank you
for that lovely review.
No thanks necessary.
You deserved it.
Just promise me you won't
give away my identity.
No problem.
I'm just happy it looks like
you're becoming a regular.
Are you kidding me?
This is the best show in town.
Yes, Claire's life is
very entertaining,
and it looks like another show
is about to begin.
I'll get more plates.
Eric, please don't do this.
I'm trying to get over you.
How do you get over
what's meant to be?
I thought you didn't believe
in destiny.
I don't.
Then what are you doing here?
I'm here for you
and I'm here for us.
Come on, Claire.
Meet him halfway.
Eric...
Look. You can call it fate
or your mother's intuition
or a coincidence that brought us
together,
but it doesn't matter how we got
here because all I know
is that I love you and I don't
ever want to lose you again.
Would you just kiss her already?
Should we make her wait?
She can wait,
but I can't.
You're so romantic.
