01x06 - Third Time's A Charm

[bunniefuu]

Woman: Previously on X Life.



- It's about time.

- Dude, I got to go

to Australia in a week.

I'm bringing my girl

and I'm about to propose her.

Nicole thinks I'm bringing her out there for a BMX event.

I'm actually bringing her there

to ask her to marry me.



- Come to...

- I can't do that.

It's too much, honey. I'm a mom.

I can't leave the kids.

Cory: It's so hard for me not to say,

"Honey, don't be sad

I can't wait 'til you get here.

I got our whole life figured out

as soon as you get here.

Nicole: I can't wait to see what you're talking about.

Denise: How could everybody else's boyfriend

show up on time and you're late?

I deserve someone that when they f*ck up,

they say they're sorry.

Why are you so like this?

You know, what about me?

Like, why do you have me in your life for

and like why are we even together?

Woman: Tonight on X Life.

Cory: Welcome to Australia, honey.

So I'm really excited to see Nicole

because I'm gonna ask her to marry me.

So I just need a little liquid courage.

No, babe, I don't like you on tequila.

I know you're not friendly.

Denise: You got to realize that at some point,

this relationship got to go somewhere, you know.

Like, what the hell are we doing?

Who the hell are you to tell me if I can go somewhere?

Can you all just kiss and make up?

Hell no.

(music playing)

Nicole: Thank you very much.

Man: Thank you.

So I just arrived in Australia

and I'm here to watch Cory

in the super important contest

that he has been pushing me to come to.

I'm really looking forward to just, you know,

having time with him

and getting to watch him ride.

(music playing)

Hi, honey.



- Hi.

- My, God.

Welcome to Australia, honey.



- This is great.

- Honey.

Right to the bed, honey.

Isn't it nice?

I did it for you.

So I'm really excited to see Nicole

because I'm gonna ask her to marry me.

I came out to Australia for a tour

and a contest but the contest got cancelled

so now I can just focus on proposing

and making it perfect.

We're gonna experience Australia without kids

and responsibilities and...

Nicole: Yeah, but what about your contest?

We have to go that. And it's not about me.



- Guess what?

- What?

No contest.

Nicole: What do you mean, honey?

We're just gonna have fun.

So you're not gonna be riding your bike at all?



- Uh

-uh. Nicole: Really?

Cory: No, just you. Riders.

Or I'm gonna be riding you?

Okay.

He literally begged me to come out

and leave the kids for seven days

to come watch him right in this contest.

It was so important to him.

And then I get here and he tells me

there's no contest.

Cory never does this

so I don't know what's going on with him.

I mean, it's about time I'm happy.

Cory: Let's have another baby.

Nicole: Let's not.

(music playing)

Jeremy: So Susie set up this cooking class

for us all to bond so.

I'm definitely not pumped to be going to cooking class

but at the same time, like,

I drag Suz to so many things in mine,

like what's me taking time out of my day

to go do something for her that's gonna make her happy?

So I'm definitely game. I'm cool.

I'm so over this.

Oh, I wish he would just apologize.

Denise: So on the way to meet Susie and Twitch,

Pierre and I got into a fight in the car

because as usual, he was on his cell phone

from the moment we got into the damn car

to the moment we pulled up to meet them.

It was rude.

You know, I just lost my temper in the car

and just kind of let him know

that I was, you know, I was, like, I'm pissed.

Well, here he comes. Great.

Hi Pierre.

How's it going?

Can you all just kiss and make up?

Hell no. Go out of my way

to make her happy once again.

I don't want to do this g*dd*mn cooking class.

And you're screaming at me the whole way here so...



- I didn't.

- ...whatever.

Denise: Yeah. It's my fault. Yeah.

All right. It's my fault that I made...

Denise: Okay. Sorry Pierre.

- ...phone call in the car



- and she's...

- Like seven phone calls

in the car and I was in the middle

of talking to you about something and as usual...

It was actually (indistinct) phone call.

Denise: And then you decided to call...

For some reason, what's his name?

Miller, about a training session

but I don't count

because I'm not one of your skateboard friends.

Susie: We'll have some fun. Denise: Okay.

Let's try and forget about it.

Jeremy: I'm not really surprised PLG and Denise

pulled up fighting. They're always going back and forth

at each other but that's just them.

In front of you, you each have a booklet.

Today, we're gonna do a (indistinct)

stuffed chicken breast.

So if two of you want to come over on this side,

we can get you going on (indistinct) as well.

Do you guys wanna go on the side with me?

Yeah, I'll go over there. Yeah.

All right, guys versus girls?



- Yeah.

- Girls against boys.

Denise: I think this is kind of interesting.

I've never seen you chop anything.

Doesn't mean I can't.

Susie: I think Jeremy secretly knows how to cook.

Denise: Look at... He's doing...

Look at how much quicker he is than Pierre.

Um...

All right. Go back into the kitchen

and finish it up there.

Jeremy, you're impressing me.

I don't think you're gonna be able to get away

with not cooking at home anymore.

I need you to be quite right now.

Denise: I love Susie and Twitch.

You could tell how much those two love each other.

Jeremy, you put that spicy sh*t in here, didn't you?



- No, I didn't.

- I freaking know.

I can see it all right here.

Denise: I want to have a cool relationship like that.

Watching them, I guess it makes me wish

that I had it too, you know.

Umm.

This is Ret*rded good.

Susie: It's unbelievable.

See, this is the kind of stuff you got to do,

Jeremy to win me over.

Don't think it ends just because we're married.

You still got to woo me.

Denise: I don't. They don't woo anymore.

They just tell you to go f*ck yourself

and they get on the phone.

What?

Uh, come on Denise.

Here we go again.

They always argue.

That might just be what they like.

If they're still together at the end of the day

like, you know, maybe they're just not ready

to admit that that's actually what they like.



- Have you talked to Nicole?

- All right.

No.



- Never heard from anybody.

- Me neither.

Denise: Why can't you ever...

- I'm so jealous...



- Jeremy to have like...

- ...get a tour.

...two tours over there.

You know what, if I would go in the tour,

you'd be, like, you're always on the road and that...



- No, I wouldn't go with you.

- (indistinct) home.

Girls can't go on those tours. It's like you...

Who the hell are you to tell me if I can go somewhere?

If I want to go, I'm going.

If it's a contest, you cannot always come

but (indistinct)

Denise: So if it's a tour and I wanted do...

If it's like in Australia, don't go.

Thank you. I appreciate it.

Denise: I hate you.

(music playing)

Oh, look at that, honey.

What is that?

Oh, that's the bridge.

Cory: Yeah. Nicole: It's so pretty.

Are you cold? I'm going to...

You can wear my jacket.

I'm having a lot of fun

with Cory in Australia so far.

So it turns out,

it's actually pretty nice

to be able to just spend time with each other,

you know, with... Without kids.

This is the famous Opera House

I would never be at unless I met a beautiful woman

like yourself to take to.

I got the ring in my pocket,

romantic, dim lights,

ocean, boats,

about to ask her to marry me.

I'm nervous.

She's got no idea.

I'm gonna read you this little letter I've made you.

Are you serious right now?



- Yeah.

- Honey.

Because when I was on my trip,

I've had time to think about

how lucky I am

and kind of who I'm with.

And it's just short and it's beautiful.

Short?

You wrote a whole story.

He has never taken me to dinner,

wrote a note

and pulled it out of his pocket.

Definitely, a little bit out of character for him.

Cory: It says,

me and you have been through

so much in our lives.

When we were awesome,

no couple could come close.

But when we were bad to each other,

mostly me, we were the worst.

But you are the only woman in my life

I see, think of, or love,

when I close my eyes.

Next page.

I love you.

Oh, my God.

What I'm trying to say is

I can't live another day

in this life without showing you how much

you really mean to me.

Honey, that's really cute.

I love you.

You know that.

I'm ready to propose,

got nervous so I just need

a little liquid courage

to, uh, get in there.

Tequila.

Woman: Hi. I have you some tequila here,



- from the house.

- Oh, tequila?

This is the menu if you'd like to go to the appetizers.



- Okay, thank you.

- Thanks.

Honey, you're drinking tequila.



- Cheers, baby.

- No, no, no.

You're not drinking tequila.



- One sh*t.

- No.

Babe, I don't like you on tequila.

I know you're not friendly.

I don't like it. It's not fun.

(music playing)

No, I'm not kidding you.

I don't think you understand

how quick you change.

Cory, look at me right now.

If you change or you be mean



- or anything like that... Cory: Baby, I'm here for you.

Denise: ...then you'll never drink tequila ever again.



- sh*t, man. Denise: Are you kidding me?

Cory: This is rough.

How is this rough?

You just don't act mean.

To you.

Or to other people.



- Fair enough. Nicole: Okay.

Oh, wow.

(music playing)

This is it.

This is it.

The biggest moment in my life.

Woman: Coming up.

The devil just came out.

I see...

And your eyes get all weird.

Something is definitely off.

(music playing)

Nicole: Oh, wow.

Cory: I got the ring in my pocket,

about to ask her to marry me.

I'm nervous.

Tequila.

The devil just came out .

I see... It's weird.

It's weird thing.

Your eyes get all weird.

Oh, my God. Really?

I will cry if you act that.



- Don't cry. Nicole: I will not...

I will... Oh, my God.

Oh, no.

Nicole: Who are you?

Maybe he's excited

that I'm in Australia

so he's just being crazy.

The kids aren't here so he can act like a kid.

I have no idea.

But something is definitely off.

Look at you.

You're scary.

Cory: You know what, if it's up to me,

I'd be home boning you in the butthole.

Oh, my God.

Look at you. You have to cover your mouth.

Cory: Did I just say that? Nicole: Yeah, yeah.



- You did.

- What an idiot.

In my head, I was like, where the hell

did that random comment come from you idiot?

The moment was there. The letter was beautiful.

I blew it. I knew it so we shut it down.

Nicole: Oh, no.

- Okay.

(music playing)

Pierre: So, uh...

Denise: Just Manhattan cheesecake.

What are you planning again?

Pierre and I, you know, we were arguing all day

but we get over it. We fight, we make up.

You know, that's who we are and that's just...

That's what we do.

I had a good time Susie

and, um, Twitch.



- I mean...

- But, um...

...one day, it would be nice to maybe

have something similar to that.

I think you'd been hanging out with Susie



- a little too much.

- No, but I mean, I...

She's been pushing that baby thing on you.

It makes... I mean, I'm years old.

It makes me think like, you know,

I'm not exactly getting any younger.

Uh

-hmm. And then if you want,

we can get to work tonight

and instead of watching a movie



- Can you just be serious once in a while?

Like, when I'm talking to you,

like, why does it always have to be that?

You want to have a kid with me

but you won't put a wedding ring on my finger.

Oh, damn. I'm...

I mean, that... That's what you'll do.

I'm getting grilled right now.

So I know Denise has been wanting

to get married for a while.

It's kind of hard for me to think about marriage

when I was married like three years ago

and it only lasted for months.

Just give me a little more time, you know.

Seriously.

Every time I try to talk to you

about something between us, that's what you do.

It goes right to that stupid comment

because you're so uncomfortable about it.

Pierre: My first marriage was definitely premature

and that's why I'm kind of hesitant

to get married again.

I want to make sure that, you know,

my relationship is really stable before,

you know, I take that step.

I don't know. I just feel like we got enough stuff

going on like let's save something when...

For when we're bored.

For when... What... What?



- For when we're bored? Pierre: Yeah.

Our life is pretty exciting

and then when our lives start slowing down,

we're like, all right.

So maybe we should get married.

That sounds like some fun to do.

You're truly stupid.

I mean, who the hell says that sh*t?

If you're bored,

you go find something to do,

go to the movies, I don't know,

go on a vacation.

There's a million other things I do when I'm bored.

I don't go get married.

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard.

Let me ask you this.

If we ever do get married,

are you gonna buy me a ring

like Susie has on her finger?

It's the prenup gonna guarantee

a certain amount of sex

that I'll would be getting?

Let me see the size of the ring

and then we'll figure that out later.

You know, married or not,

Pierre and I really do love each other.

And at the end of the day,

there's just something about that moron

I just love, you know.

And I'm an idiot.



- Thank you.

- All right. Thank you.

Thanks for having us.

Have a good night.

(music playing)



- Baby, careful, honey.

- I'm scared.

You're are my life. Oh.



- There you go.

- Oh.

So the first night, I was gonna propose at the Opera House.

I blew it, I knew it.

So it's a new day in Australia.

It's gonna be a good day. It's our last day.

So I'm gonna hit her with it.

This is awesome.

Round two.

Here we go.

All joking aside honey, I love you so much.

Give me a kiss.

I know I act stupid sometimes

and I'm stupid.

But I love you more than anything in this world.

Get off to your knee, honey.

No, I wanted to apologize first.

Honey, apologize for what?

For being an idiot.

What are you talking about? You've been...

I love you.



- (indistinct) idiot. Sit down.

- Yeah, I love you.

Why are you on your f*cking knee?



- This is us.

- That's stupid. Get up.



- What do you mean?

- Get up here.

I love you.

Sit down.

I love you.

I love you.

When are we going to have, like,

a nice, quiet, romantic,

like moment, without you screaming...

Cory: This is it.

Turn it off, baby. Turn it off.

Turn it off.

Sorry baby.

No, no, no, you don't need to apologize.

Just turn it off.

Cory: And I was like, ahh.

So there goes that one.

So that's two.

No good. No bueno.

Turn it around. We want to go back.

All right. What happened?

I'm over it.

Woman: Coming up.

- Be honest, if you're over,



- let's go.

- What do you want me to do?

You want me to want me to skip?

If you're over it, I'm over it.

for it to be perfect

and now, I'm thinking

that this isn't gonna happen.

(music playing)

Oh, yeah.

Let's run.

Warm us up.

Really?

Really?

Okay. Well, I've blown two opportunities

to nail it

and I blew them both

so third time, here we come.

Third time is a charm.

Last chance qualifier.

Got to stick this one.

Look how pretty that is.

I am freezing.

Isn't that awesome?

This is definitely a romantic spot.

Oh lord.

Sit up here.

Nicole: I know Cory is trying so hard

to make sure I have the best time

and he's being so romantic

and saying nice things to me

but I'm so freaking cold right now

I cannot even think straight.

This is nice.

I love you.

I love you.

You're the best mommy,

best girlfriend,

best person,

prettiest hottest chick in the world.

Thanks baby.

You put up with all my sh*t.

Nicole: Are we gonna get knocked up by a wave?



- I don't know. Nicole: Oh my God.

You can't even... You can't even hang out



- for a minute, huh?

- Honey, the wind is going

straight through my sweater.

Really?

So I'm just so bummed that like

this is like my last opportunity for it

to be perfect and it's so not.

My girl's not happy.

She's cold.

The weather's bad.

It's a disaster.

And now, I'm thinking

that this isn't gonna happen.



- You're over this.

- I don't know.

Be honest. If you're over, let's go.

What do you want me to do? You want me to skip?



- Let's go. Come on. Let's go.

- You want me to jump around?



- What do you want me to do?

- Let's just go.



- Do you want me to...

- If you're over it,



- I'm over it.

- ...like climb something?



- You want me to...

- No. Come on.

Want me to... Want me to...

Come on, baby.

Want me to jump in the water?

What would make you happy, babe?

For a change, what would make you happy?

What can I do to make you happy?

To make me happy,

say yes to being my wife

for the rest of your life.

Honey, this is why you're here.

Are you kidding me right now?

No.



- This is it.

- What?

Cory: This is why you're here, boo

-boo.

(music playing)

To make me happy,

say yes to being my wife

for the rest of your life.

Honey, this is why you're here.

Nicole: Are you kidding me right now?

Cory: No.



- This is it.

- What?

Cory: This is why you're here, boo

-boo.

Marry me.

Honey, are you f*cking kidding me right now?



- No.

- Baby.

Yes?

Of course.

What are you doing, honey?

Oh, my God, that's

That's your...

Honey, what the hell?

Boom.

Nicole: Honey.

I love you.

Have you been planning this, this whole time?

So like I don't even...

It's a craziest feeling

to go so many years, you know,

wanting this life

and now I feel like I'm gonna have it.

So I'm happy.

I'm really happy.

It's really a good place to be

and I just... I didn't...

I didn't know when it was gonna happen

and just the fact that it's happening is,

it couldn't be any better of a feeling

and I'm just really excited.

I'm excited to start our life together.



- Are you serious?

- Yeah.

Honey...

I love you and I want you

to be my girl forever and be wife.



- We're gonna get married?

- Yeah.



- Really?

- Yeah.

But you have a ring on your finger, honey.

It's about time.

Sorry, it took so long.

(music playing)

Oh, my God.

I knew I was gonna marry her

from the day I laid eyes on her.

She's been so beautiful in my eyes.

Um, did it, you know.

Game over.

Bye ladies.



- Did you say yes?

- Yes.



- I didn't hear you.

- Yes.



- Yes.

- Yeah.

(music playing)

Woman: Next time on X Life.

We're gonna have to do an engagement party.

And you think that Cory's mom

will come to the engagement party?

I don't think she's capable of that.

I wanna give my mom a chance to be part of my life

but with that said,

it'd bring a whole shitload of drama.

You're acting like you're not taking care of here?

Uh, you make it sound like I'm the worst boyfriend.

So if he was totally ready

and he proposed to you...

Probably say no.

You would say no, Denise.

Cory: Ma. Woman: Who is this?

Your son.

Right now, the engagement party,

I want my mom to be there.

Woman: No. Sorry. I'm not doing it.

I'm... I'm not doing it.

Cory: It'll never change.

Just be my supportive mom and come

and like, you know, but no.

Man: Hmm.

(music playing)

Chicken breast are really nice.

We're gonna make a pan sauce.

What are we gonna do with this piece?

Uh, the ends, we normally use

for a vinaigrette or something like that.

So you don't really have to worry about it.

Just go ahead and toss them to these scraps.

So you can toss the rest in here.

Uh, that's a lot.

I like onions.

I like onions, too.

I can only have them if they're cooked.

Otherwise, I'm going to chop...

Jeremy: Yeah, I like them in semi

-cook or grilled.

Pierre: Yeah, I like them grilled.

Man: Lucky for you guys...

We're cooking.
