"It's not just about a kiss, debbie." "Marco can't" "He can't express his feelings for me." "Every single time it comes up, he clams up." "I just" " I think that I made a big mistake." "I don't think that he's ready for marriage." "That is not true." "It's not true." "Marco loves you." "Look, I know how you're feeling." "My ex cheated on me." "And I bet that you dumped him." "Oh, I did." "But...." "I didn't dump him because he cheated," "I dumped him because he cheated and lied to me about it." "I gave him a chance to come clean," "But by then it was too late." "That's terrible, debbie." "I'm sorry." "Listen, I speak from experience." "If marco tells you the truth about what happened," "You will know that it was just a stupid mistake" "And he is so sorry." "Can you handle that?" "I don't know." "We have this huge dance in front of everyone" "At midnight after the rehearsal dinner." "It's a vitturi family tradition." "Okay." "Give him until midnight, then." "Can you do that?" "Okay, until midnight." "Good." "How'd you get so smart about this stuff?" "Because I have an old soul." "It's gonna be okay, pumpkin." ""pumpkin"?" "My mom calls me that." "Does she?" "That's so funny." "My mom calls me that too." "All right, well, I gotta go." "But debbie, what if he doesn't" "Doesn't tell the truth?" "Mr. Hutton." "I'm so glad you're here." "Marco." "Oh, I'm sorry I missed your bachelor party." "I hope you behaved yourself." "Well, actually, I messed up." "I got drunk, and I don't know how it all happened," "But it ended up with me kissing someone who is not mirabella." "But it didn't mean anything, and the other girl kind of kissed me, really." "But I made this promise to mirabella that I was through with all that." "And now I don't know what to do." "Sit down." "I want you to look me in the eye and tell me the truth" "Do you love my daughter?" "Absolutely." "With all my heart, sir." "All right, then." "I can help you fix this," "But you have to do exactly what I say." "I know I have to tell her the truth." "No." "Don't tell her the truth." "You'll only end up hurting her, and I don't want that to happen." "Believe it or not, I was once in your shoes" "And now look at me." "You're divorced." "Exactly." "Because I told the truth!" "You know, your divorce is why mirabella is so worried about me." "It was really hard on her." "I know it was." "Telling mirabella the truth won't change anything." "I don't want to lie to her." "If you love her, you hato lie." "You can't tell her the truth, no matter what." "Clear?" "All right." "Hey, where ya goin'?" "To talk to a ghost." "Oh!" "Where did that boy go?" "Harper." "It is you!" "It is not!" "What the hell's going on here?" "How can--how can you look like this?" "I'm sure I don't know you, so if you'll just excuse me" "Harper, your ass." "What?" "I recognized it in the bathroom." "I know that ass." "I fell in love with that ass." "God help me, I spent the better part of the eighties worshipping that ass." "Really?" "It is you." "Hello, ryan." "It's been a while." "I need a drink." "I'll get it for you." "Come." "I also need a priest." "Gotta be a priest around here somewhere, this is Italy." "Where are all the priests?" "Oh, my god." "Will you stop being so dramatic?" "I have a perfectly reasonable explanation." "There is nothing reasonable about this-- or you." "Okay, just take a deep breath" "Don't-- don't tell me what to do." "Where are you going?" "To find a cop." "This can't be legal." "( coughing )" "W-what happened?" "You're going to be very angry." "Distinct possibility, if you're involved in any way." "My knee was the size of a grapefruit, ryan," "And--and there was this tonic, and it is magical." "And I took a sip and I turned young." "Amanda found it in the back of the theater" "Lord knows how long that's been there-- but I had no choice." "So in a way, it's kind of like fate." "And I hated marco, I hated him," "But it turns out he really loves her, and she really loves him back," "And okay, I admit, I originally came here to stop the wedding--at first." "But theyou know, as it turns out," "I, um, I kissed him..." "Of course." "And now it's all gone terribly wrong somehow." "Well, then, you haven't lost your touch." "This isn't a joke, ryan." "Seriously, harper, how could you do something like this to our daughter?" "I know, I know, it's terrible." "Are you mad?" "Hold on." "Did you drug me?" "Of coursi drugged you." "You were gonna drop the dime on me." "Plus, I really need your help with this." "You..." "Drugged me!" "I was thinking about our daughter!" "Oh, sure you were!" "Wha" "Aaaah!" "Right." "Ryan?" "Ryan!" "Hmm..." "Ryan." "Ryan." "Huhh!" "What did you do to me this time?" "Whose voice is that?" "Is that--(coughs)-- (shrill) hey, that's me!" "(deeper) hey, that's me." "Why do I sound so weird, harper?" "!" "Oh, my god." "Harper, this..." "Is a miracle." "I know, I know, you're young," "I've been there, I've done that." "Listen to me." "Yeah!" "I have ruined our daughter's one chance at love." "So I need you to help me fix it." "Yeah, well, you can check that off your to-do list," "Because I already fixed it." "What do you mean?" "Marco spilled the whole can of beans." "I told him no witness, no crime." "Just deny till he dies." "It's all good." "No." "Ryan!" "No" "Ryan!" "Mirabella overhead marco talking about the kiss." "He hato confess." "Uh-oh." "Yeah." "I told her that if he tells her the truth," "That means he loves her and she can trust him." "So if he doesn't tell her, she'll just think he's trying to cover it up" "And that means he'll cheat on her again." "We have to fix this." "Wow." "To see your mind at work is at once fascinating and repugnant." "Oh, my god." "You are completely useless." "I remember why I divorced you." "It was not a divorce" "It was an exorcism!" "You cheated on me!" "One time!" "Mid-life crisis." "And then you lied about it." "And when I told the truth, you kicked me out!" "We do not have time for this." "Where could marco be?" "Think, ryan." "Think?" "I can't think because I'm 30 years younger than I was 20 minutes ago!" "I can't believe you got me into this!" "Wait-- yes, I can." "Okay, look, I just read this guy's diary on the plane," "Oh my god, I hope I'm not too late." "Look, whatever happens, do not take a third dose." "( disconnects )" "Mirabella." "Wow." "You look..." "What's wrong?" "Nothing." "What's wrong with you?" "Nothing." "So we're both good." "We're great." "Look..." "I don't want any secrets between us." "That's not the way to start a marriage." "I totally agree." "So..." "You would tell me the truth about anything stupid" "You might have done in the past?" "Distant, recent, whatever?" "Well, um, mirabella," "What I'm trying to say is that, well, I..." "Wait!" "He's gonna tell her." "Um..." "Of course I would." "If I had something, you know, to confess." "( grunts )" "Damn." "Mirabella..." "Young harper:" "I've seriously messed this up." "And how." "Okay, what's our plan?" "Ha! "our" plan?" "Would you stop, please, look what I can do!" "How long does thohh!" "Ow!" "Last?" "And help me?" "We only have until midnight when the rehearsal dinner ends." "I can't help it." "This stuff really works." "Of course it works." "It's--(gasps )" "Oh, my gosh, the tonic!" "I left it at the bar!" "Hmm." "No!" "No, no!" "Where is it?" "I don't see it." "( gasps ) what?" "Oh." "What happened?" "Oh, aunt birdie." "She must have chugged the whole bottle." "What's that gonna do to her?" "I don't want to know." "Aunt birdie?" "( gasps )" "Oh, my god." "What?" "There goes great-aunt birdie." "Proud matriarch of the hayworth line." "Wow." "She's got some moves." "Runs in the family." "You have really screwed this up." "( music, chatter )" "( whispering )" "Hey." "I am debbie, and you are...?" "Angus." "Angus?" "Angus." "Okay, we only have until midnight to get this fixed, angus." "Hey." "I know it goes completely against your nature" "And ever fiber of your being is screaming at you to do the opposite," "But you have to tell the truth." "Let marco off the hook for this kiss, harper." "Tell him you kissed him." "He's gotta understand none of this was his fault." "It's the only way to fix this mess." "You're right." "Ugh!" "God, I hate it when that happens." "Noelle:" "No, I'm serious." "You look amazing." "Oh, the bride-to-be is here." "Mirabella." "Hey." "Mirabella:" "Hi." "Thanks for ruining my life." "I thought we were best friends." "Excuse me?" "Back up a sec." "You can drop the act," "Because I know that you and marco kissed last night." "What are you talking about?" "I heard him and scott talking about it under the bridge." ""soulful brown eyes, full of life, embracing the moment."" "Mirabella, I was really drunk last night, but I wasn't that drunk." ""mirabella, you're so lucky!" "He's so hot and rich, and hot and rich!"" "Okay, fine!" "I was plastered." "After I left you guys, I" "I hit up the bachelor party..." "And I can't remember much after that." "Convenient." "We've been best friends since seventh grade." "I would never hurt you." "Besides, I'm not the only one around here with brown eyes." "The jig is up!" "No, no, no!" "She can't find out it was me!" "What do we do?" "We have to convince her" "That there's no way debbie would have kissed marco." "Okay, how do we do that?" "Hey!"
