This is for you.

It's a ring.

I know.

- For you.
- [LAUGHS] I know.

So, he didn't get down
on one knee or nothin'?

I mean, technically, he was
on two knees, kinda on me, but.

Jasper, your dog better
not sh*t on my lawn again!

- You know, love is a beautiful thing.
- BETH: Mm.

And you two are getting married,
and that's what's important.

Yeah, at first I was
worried it was a little s...

Stupid!

Soon, Shlomo. I was saying "soon."

Sorry, Bethala. I...

It was gonna be an
S-word though, right?

Listen, I'm gonna give
you a little advice.

- Okay.
- Don't be like the rest of these brides,

spendin' nine years
plannin' they weddin'.

Then when it's over, they
have nothing to live for.

They tired, they broke, they
got a honeymoon on layaway.

- Layaway?
- It's just sad. We don't do layaway.

Jasper, the dog! Thank you.

Yeah, we don't wanna wait.

Nah, we just wanna get married.

Yeah, it's not about getting married.

It's about being married.

Oh, oh, see, I, I
think that's a mistake.

There are so few things in
life we really celebrate.

A, a wedding is
something to commemorate,

e-especially as a Jewish woman.

It's important to pay respects
to your ancestors who fled Nazis

so you could be alive and get
married in the first place.

Can we kind of keep
things light, just today?

- Oh, yeah. Of course. I'm sorry.
- MAYA: Beth, look.

I think you should go all out.

Ya know, even though I got divorced,
I'm glad I had a bangin' wedding.

Yes, you did. Oh, my
God, it was so good.

No, we're, we're gonna
do something great.

Yeah, I agree. I just don't wanna wait.

Ya know, we, we could do
it next week. Is that crazy?

JOHN: Timing's good for the farm.

Harvest just ended, so
I'm free. The vineyard?

Uh, we did my mom's memorial there, so.

Uh, you know what? Next week's
bad. I'm goin' to New Orleans

to go to the Essence
Festival with my cousins.

I love New Orleans.

Me too. That's perfect.

- Yes!
- Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

- Can I go?
- N-No. No! This is my trip.

This is great. You can
still do all your stuff.

- Why can Aunt Beth go, but I can't go?
- No, wait,

- I'm not gonna have my trip white-jacked.
- What is that?

What does it sound like, Beth?

That's when white people
take over a Black experience!

I have some friends down there.

You do?! Oh, my God,
look at this cool guy.

- Friends in New Orleans.
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey!

- How 'bout my guy?
- No, stop! Don't do that with her!

No! This is my only time to see my
favorite cousins. Absolutely not.

No, uh, you won't even
notice that we're there.

You can just pop over to the wedding.

You can still do all your
stuff, all the Essence.

No! No! What do you mean all
the Essence... No! Alright?

Why don't you guys go to,
like, Teen Vogue-apalooza,

or, or, or, like, The New
Yorker Clambake or whatever,

but you not gonna white-jack my trip.

Jasper! Get that f*ckin' dog!

[CROSSTALK] Get outta here!

Jasper, I thought we was friends, dude.

- Jasper.
- Come on.

Look, Maya,

it's a destination wedding in the
middle of the week, last minute.

Nobody's even gonna show.

Hell yeah! Earth, Wind & Fire?

- BETH [ON PHONE]: No, you know what?

Don't come.

- Look, Beth, I...

you'll just come with
all your boundaries.

- No...
- And I'd rather you just not be there.

- Alright?

No. No, no! I-I mean it, Annie.

I'm serious!

We only want people to come

You were the one who was pushing
me to let him in, and now he's in,

so you stay out!

That's so nice, thank you!

That's good. Yeah, straight line.
That's it, that's it, perfect.

- Um.

- John?
- JOHN: Hey, hon.

This is Ben.

Do you know the correct
way to do a pushup?

- Uh, I... Really?
- JOHN: How do you do it?

Well, it's like a straight
line from the back of the head,

- down to the ankles.
- That's great to know.

Do you think maybe we can
help get Ben somethin' to eat?

What? Somethin' to eat?

Oh. Well, they, they just, um,
actually, put some lunch out back

- if you guys...
- Great. That sounds really good.

- Yes. Come on!
- Is this, like, a mission? Soup kitchen?

BEN: Follow me. Come on.

BETH: I don't wanna follow a
homeless person into an alley.

Come on, here. Come on. Like

Okay, good. Would we be friends

And listen, we'll talk
about you ruinin' my trip,

but not today. Today, I got you. [SIGHS]

BETH: Alright, thank you.

[EXHALES]

There's the beauty! Put
this tip jar down here.

Well, let's get you wedding ready.

Okay. Who's gonna do my makeup?

I am, baby doll!

- And my hair?
- Also me!

Okay. Um, there's no mirror here.

Yeah, Ricky stole it. That's
okay, we don't need it.

Alright. Um, I brought a reference photo

- that I would like you to sort of emulate.
- Oh, okay.

Just a little picture for inspo.

- FLORA: We can do it.
- I really wanna wow John.

- I invented the wow, right? [LAUGHS]
- Okay, yeah.

- But that's wowsy. Yeah. Okay.
- Yeah.

Oh, just so you know,
I have trichotillomania,

so I'm missing some hair.

Don't worry. There are
no spiders in here, okay?

[JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING]



That's an interesting dress, Meri.

Oh, thank you so much!

Hey. Where did you go last night?

You, like, disappeared.

Don't worry about it. How's your leg?

It hurts. The doctor only gave
me ibuprofen, so I'm just kinda...

MATT: Here.

- [PILL BOTTLE RATTLING]

The bad news is, your groom took off.

[QUIET STREET NOISE]

Hey.

Do you have a phone?
I wanna look at myself.

There's no mirror in there.

- No.
- You're sweating.

I was playing basketball.
I'm just finishing my vows.

I guess that's why I'm...
feeling, I guess, nervous.

Yeah, talking in front of a
room full of people, that's...

- Of course, you're nervous.
- No, it's not that.

It's just... I just, I just
have a lot of feelings for you.

I just hope that I covered them all.

[SIGHS]

So, I walk down the aisle by myself

and I stand there waiting for you?

We could do something different.

That's right, people. I promised you a

big one right after that Goldberg bris.

Well, here it is.

Beth and John, they're gonna do it.

Yeah, that's right.
This chat is on fire.

I can see the comments. Keep 'em comin'.

Ezra, unmute me.

And remember, you can always
follow me on my podcast, and...

C-Can we, can we skip
ahead to our vows?

Oh, skip ahead? There's a whole
ceremony, but what the hey?

- Okay.
- Hit it.

Beth,

... I know you like
when I say your name,

so I'll make sure to say it a lot. Beth.

[SOFT LAUGH]

Since we met, you have challenged me

to be a better person

and a better partner.

But at the same time, I've
never felt more like myself.

I don't always know the best
way to express my love for you,

but marrying you seems like one way.

[GENTLE MUSIC PLAYING]

Your beauty is effortless.

Usually.

I'm a farmer, Beth.

And soon, our family will grow.

That's what I do best.

Beth... you are my favorite
person in the world.

I love you.
