While I was taking a shower

he came in and he tried to...

Well, I can't even say it.

Ay, I'm so excited.

He's finally introducing us
to one of his boyfriends.

Yeah, it's almost like he feared
the intense scrutiny

of three generations
of family members.

That reminds me.

I told Carmela
about your breakup.

What?
She's gonna tell everybody!

So you don't have to.

That's how everyone found out
I was pregnant with you.

She's a chismosa pain in
the a*s but a real time-saver.

Great. Now my night's gonna be
spent dodging relatives

who want to set me up
with their friend's loser sons.

Well, who needs Bumble

You're 28, baby.
You don't have time to waste.

and a rebound with
my Trader Joe's cashier

to finally start referring
to my ex as my ex.

[SIGHS]

- Must be extra sucky during
the holidays, though.
- Yeah.

'Cause now I have to go to

which to a Latino family is like
announcing you're a socialist.

I am super happy to bone you.

[SLIDES GLASS ON COUNTER]

Buddy, if it didn't happen

when you and Jorge were
college roommates,

and it didn't happen
in the ten years following,

I think it's safe to say
it's never gonna happen.

Okay, your not orgasm.

[CHUCKLES] Hey, by the way,

our boy is totally freaking out
about tonight. And not

in a good way like when Dionne
Warwick followed him on Twitter.

- [JORGE] Well, I just sweat
through two shirts.
- There it is.

I mean, it's like
watching Joe Manganiello

- in Magic Mike all over again.
- Relax.

Tonight is gonna be amazing.

[NICK] That's what
I keep saying!

Yeah, whatever,
because I don't care

what people think about me.

- Yes, you do.
- [NICK] Yes, you do.

Okay. Yeah. Sure.

Fine. Yes, I do.

But, God,
I hate that I do,

because I'm so used to walking
into a room and owning it.

But this room is
going to be filled

with judgy-a*s Latinos,

salivating over the fresh meat.

I mean,
I know that everyone is cool

with me being g*y in theory,
but seeing me holding hands

with the guy I love IRL is
a completely different thing.

Wait...

you love him?

Ew. Don't be gross.

But... yeah,
I mean, I think so.

- [LAUGHING]
- [SCREAMING]

Everyone is gonna love Henry.

[SIGHS]

Dad is going to love Henry.

I hope so.

I mean, Mom is just excited

that I'm finally bringing
someone home that I'm dating,

but Dad is so old-school,
you know?

Like, when I came out,
he was so great,

but I felt like
it took him a while

- to get comfortable with it.
- Mm-hmm.

And if tonight doesn't go well,
I just...

I think it could set us back.

Jorgito, he's obsessed
with you.

[SIGHS]

Yeah. You're right. Okay.

Yeah. I'm done with that. Mm.

Let me take all of this in.
Strut for me.

Show me the back, the front.

Sell the garment.

Yes, oh,
the eye shadow, too.

Fantastic choice.

I'm completely obsessed, love.

I mean, looking this good,

love is gonna come knocking
at your door.

[KNOCKING]

You know, I always thought
we had brujería in the family.

Okay, girl, get the door.

And what is this wine?

A twist-off cap, Lil? Really?

- What are you...
- Henry!

- Hey.
- Hey.

This is Lily.

Uh, hi, Lily.

It's nice to meet you.

Henry!

[CHUCKLING]

You are... Henry.

Yeah.

- Reel it in.
- Oh.

[HENRY LAUGHS]

We should go.

[JORGE GROANS]

I'm s... That was way more
dramatic than I intended.

- Sorry.
- Was it?

Lily, I'm nervous,
so leave me alone.

You're nervous? I'm meeting,
like, ten family members

who love you.

Ten family members?

This isn't a doctor's
appointment. Try 30-plus.

We've got Mexicans,
we've got Cubans.

- We've got Dominicans.
- [NICK] Oh, yeah, bro.

You are doomed.

Especially since they thought
for years that I,

the long-term roommate,

was actually
the secret boyfriend.

They were really disappointed
when they found out

I was straight...
But, hey, don't worry.

I'm gonna be there
for you guys, okay?

If there's any weird vibes,
I got a foolproof system.

I just hit them
with some fun facts.

And speaking of fun facts,
actually, Henry,

you need to tell my grandma
that you went to church earlier,

which is why you didn't join
Lily and I at 5:00 mass.

Mm, but you weren't
at 5:00 mass.

- In fact, I was.
Thank you, Lil.
- You're welcome.

Wait, you lie to your grandma
about going to church?

Yeah,
it's just easier that way.

I'm not gonna lie
to your grandma.

[CHUCKLES] Henry, it's really
not that big of a deal, though,

and it would save me
a lot of grief, so please.

Wait, wait,
you're out to your family,

and they're cool with it,

but you lie about going
to church?

- Correct.
- You have to understand,

there is a lot of love
and understanding,

and there has been tremendous
growth over the years.

Tremendous growth.

But God, you don't mess
with God, you know?

I mean, they're okay
that I'm down with the D

- as long as the D is
not the devil.
- Is not the devil.

We're trying to keep her
from abuela.

And Tío Arturo brought a woman
who he claims is a friend,

[WHISPERS] but she might be
a sex worker.

So, no one is talking
about my breakup?

You want me to lie?

sh*t.

Ay, ¡pobrecita!

To be dumped at your age,

I cannot imagine
since I was married at 21.

I'm so sorry about Michael,

but here's the good news:
men that handsome cheat.

If you ask me, he was never
good enough for you.

So, let me introduce you to...

...someone well-educated.

Handsome. Funny.

He's a coworker. 401[K].

Kids all grown
and out of the house.

How old is he, tía?

Sixty-two.

To think,
you would be a grandmother

without ever having to ruin
your body.

Loves Civil w*r reenactments,

so he won't even be around
that much.

Now this man will never cheat.

Tía, Alejandro's your son.

My cousin.

In Spain,
they did it all the time.

Girl, don't let these viejitas
make you feel

like you need someone
to be happy.

I'm 42 and single,
and I don't need no man.

I'm in two wine clubs and
a book club where we don't read,

- [CORK POPS]
- we just drink wine and... Oh,
my God, they opened more wine.

[FESTIVE MUSIC PLAYING
IN DISTANCE]

Blocked? What the hell?

- [DOOR OPENS]
- Oh, sorry, I need to change
for work.

No, it's fine, it's fine.
Come in, come in.

Are you trying
to Insta-stalk Michael?

Of course! But he blocked me.

- Girl, like anyone cares
about his fitness journey.
- [TOILET FLUSHES]

I can't really blame him.

Well, I can.

Look at you.
What the hell else does he want,

dumping you right
before Christmas?

[SCOFFS]

So...

I'm about to tell you something
that I haven't told anyone.

Michael didn't exactly dump me.

Then what exactly did he do?

Cried while I dumped him.

- You dumped him?!
- [SHUSHING]

Would you keep it down?
They can't know.

They would never understand
why a 28-year-old would dump

a beautiful lawyer man
who owns his house outright.

Wait, he has no mortgage?

Okay, now you need to
explain yourself,

'cause I don't understand,
either.

Something always felt off.

And I kept waiting
for that to change,

but it never did,
so I ended it.

You know, we're all told that

love is supposed to feel
a certain way,

but what even is that feeling?

I mean, I think I know
what it is.

But what if I'm one of
those color-blind people

who think it's pink,
but pink is actually yellow.

- Is pink really yellow?!
- Okay, baby, take a breath.

I mean, maybe I was in love.
What the hell do I know?

And now I've got all the tías
presenting every bachelor

in the Portland metropolitan
area, and they all suck.

Oh, no.

Oh, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.

I had the perfect man,
and I let him go.

Then what do you want to do?

I want him back.

Then go get that man
with no mortgage.

Yes. Yes!

I'm gonna go find him,

and I'm gonna do
a big romantic gesture.

I mean, it's Christmas!

I always thought that
bisexual men were really g*y men

but didn't want to admit it.

Oh, wow. Going right for it.

'Kay. No, th-that is not true.

[MARTA] Okay.

So, you just look at the world
and say, "Yes."

[LAUGHTER]

[HENRY] Well, no, no.

Th-There is this perception
that bisexuals are

attracted to everyone and are,

- like, always down to clown.
- [CHUCKLES]

Clowns are bisexual?

That makes sense.

Okay, no, but I-I see
the mental leap there.

[CHUCKLES] I-I just meant
promiscuous.

- Hmm.
- Uh, but it's not
a free-for-all.

You know, I-I, for one,
am super picky

and like to date
one person at a time.

That person can be someone
of any gender, though.

So, listen, I was thinking,

as much as I've liked
flirting with you

over charts and baked goods
the last few months,

maybe it'd be better
over dinner?

Oh.

Oh?

No. I...

I thought there was a vibe.

Are you Catholic?

Not anymore.

Why, is that a prerequisite?

I totally respect that.

I hope I haven't
