Fiance. 00:00
Hello, my intended. 00:00
That one sounds a little murdery. 00:02
You are my intended. 00:03
Stop it, stop it! 00:04
So while you're out, I'm gonna review our flower options. 00:06
And I have to say, so far, I'm partial to Floral and Hardy, 00:08
but I'm gonna give one last look at Florist Gump. 00:10
You love a business with a clever name. - I do. 00:13
Guilty. Can I just say I love how this is going? 00:15
Mitchell and I agreed that I would be in charge of the wedding 00:19
after the tragic news last week from the Andys. 00:22
Uh. Not the mountain range. No. 00:25
Our friends Andrew and Andrew, they broke up. 00:27
The stress of planning a wedding was too much. 00:29
They were quibbling about everything. - Everything. 00:31
I mean, which is why I'm just happy to stay out of his way. 00:34
Yeah, I dream big. 00:36
Then I winnow down. Dream big, winnow down. 00:37
Dream big. - Winnow down. 00:40
Yep. Stay out of my way. 00:41
Sorry. 00:42
Daddy. Where's Larry? 00:44
Oh, well, you know how cats are, sweetie. 00:46
They're. They're wanderers. 00:48
But I haven't seen him in days. 00:50
Well, he'll be back. Okay. Trust daddy on this. 00:52
Okay. 00:54
You know, I'm starting to get worried that Larry might not come back. 00:57
Oh, he's definitely dead. 00:59
What? 01:00
Yeah. Street meat or coyote chow. We'll wait a couple weeks and then we'll get a new Larry. 01:01
You're pretty nonchalant about our family pet dying. 01:05
And shouldn't we help our daughter process this loss? 01:08
Yes, we will. And she'll be fine. 01:10
And it's not nonchalant. It's farm life. 01:13
Death is everywhere. You just learn to not get too attached to anything. 01:16
Oh, so what if I were to die? You would just wait a few weeks and then replace me? 01:19
Of course not. Where would I find another gay Mitchell with your exact markings. 01:23
Hey, honey. 01:33
I am so excited. I can't stand it. 01:33
If you're gonna move your hands around like that, you need to put the phone down. 01:36
Okay, okay, okay. 01:38
For a cocktail hour, they're creating a running waterfall onto which they're going to 01:40
project a hologram of us embracing. 01:44
But we're still winnowing, right? 01:47
Already winnowed. I cut the angel costumes. 01:48
Hard choices, Mitchell. Okay, I gotta go. 01:51
I'm so excited. 01:53
Yeah. Me too. 01:54
Best thing about my relationship with Cam. 02:10
Trust. 02:13
Newsflash. I can be an obsessive person. 02:15
In the past, I've had trouble letting someone else call the shots. 02:20
Giving up control made me crazy. 02:25
That's what makes my life with Cam so freeing. 02:29
I can turn over big things to him and never give them a second thought. 02:32
Out of sight, out of mind. Bye bye. 02:36
I'm worried about Larry. 02:46
Oh, honey, I know. 02:48
Where is he? 02:51
Um, Lily, there's probably something I should tell you. 02:52
Larry's not coming back home. 02:56
Why? Is he dead? 02:58
Nope. Um. Not dead. Larry met someone, fell in love, and he got married. 03:00
Are they ever going to visit? 03:06
I'm afraid not. Because when cats get married, they have to move to the forest. 03:07
And so then they're not tempted by other cats in the city. 03:14
It's Larry! 03:17
I know even people that you would never expect have moments of weakness. 03:19
No. Over there. But where's his wife? 03:22
Hello, Larry. Larry's back. Yeah, well, you know what? 03:25
I think they probably didn't work out, and they broke up. 03:29
People get married and then break up. What if that happens to you and daddy? 03:32
Oh, you know what? Daddy made a mistake. 03:36
Larry and his wife didn't break up. 03:38
Larry's wife died. 03:40
Oh, no. 03:43
Yeah. That's why we're gonna give him the closure he needs by throwing, 03:44
um, a funeral to celebrate the remarkable life of Larry's wife. 03:49
It's gonna be great. You know what? 03:54
We're gonna have music. We're gonna get a shoebox. 03:55
We're gonna have candles. 03:58
Yes. Hi. Florist Gump, it's me again. 03:59
It felt good to handle that crisis on my own. 04:01
In the past, I would have had to run to Mitchell. 04:04
But he's been trusting me more and more. 04:06
I'm so proud of him. He's really learned to let things go. 04:09
Oh, no. God, no. No, no. 04:15
Oh! 04:17

You are my intended.
Stop it, stop it!
So while you're out, I'm gonna review our flower options.
And I have to say, so far, I'm partial to Floral and Hardy,
but I'm gonna give one last look at Florist Gump.
You love a business with a clever name. - I do.
Guilty. Can I just say I love how this is going?
Mitchell and I agreed that I would be in charge of the wedding
after the tragic news last week from the Andys.
Uh. Not the mountain range. No.
Our friends Andrew and Andrew, they broke up.
The stress of planning a wedding was too much.
They were quibbling about everything. - Everything.
I mean, which is why I'm just happy to stay out of his way.
Yeah, I dream big.
