" (seagulls cawing) - (boat horn blows)" " (seagulls cawing) - (boat horn blows)" "(cell phone rings)" "I am just leaving Ice Cream Palace." "You'd better hurry up, 'cause I'm getting ready to crack the first bottle." "What are you doing?" "Well, I'm just hanging up these amazing flyers that my best friend made me." "I should be getting good at it by now." "I mean, this is business number what?" "I have no idea." "I can't count past 10 without my shoes off." "Why are you starting without me?" "I thought we were having a fun girls' night." "I figured that we'd pop in some "Sex and the City" DVDs when you get home and we can throw olives at the screen every time one of the girls gets screwed over by some douchebag." "Okay, so I'm guessing you're still not over Sean, huh?" "It's my own fault, you know?" "I should have never let you set me up with one of your lowlife friends, let alone one with a six-pack." "Okay, be nice." "I just maxed out my credit cards buying you Chunky Monkey." "(phone beeping)" "I think this is my first client." "I'll see you at home." "Hello." "Yes, this is Wendy." "Yes, he's my father." "A heart attack." "Wow." "And you haven't seen him or spoken to him in a long time, right?" "Huh-uh, not since I was 12." "He cheated on your mom, didn't he?" "Yeah, she was never the same." "I mean, he always used to send" "Christmas cards and birthday cards and my mom would just send them back." "Well, at least he sent cards." "I mean, some dads don't even do that." "Yeah, but sending cards... not really a way to have a relationship with your daughter." "Now I have all these papers to sign." "I don't even know why I'm crying." "Look, we'll make a girls' weekend out of it." "I'll pack up all the junk food we have in the house and we'll get you nice and drunk before you sign anything." "Sounds great." "Oh man, you're gonna kill me." "I left all the Chunky Monkey in the street." "We'll get some more."

"Hmm?" "Do you think you're gonna get anything out of all this?" "You know, I don't know." "From what I remember, my dad was not so good with money." "Sounds like the apple didn't fall far from that tree." "Hey, I pay my rent on time." "Since when?" "Okay, maybe I need to have the occasional odd job to get me through until I find something..." "Wait, occasional?" "Let's not rewrite history here, okay?" "Since I've known you, you've sold organic coffee, painted landscapes, told fortunes, and my personal favorite..." "juggled fire in the Castro district." "Hey, do you know how hard it was to catch those batons?" "You singed off both of your eyebrows." "Look, my point is you learned how to catch them and then you moved on to something else." "I'm barely in the second phase of the grieving process and you're already barking at me." "I think we're close." "We just made a wrong turn somewhere around that pizza stain, which puts us one fingernail away." "Okey-doke." "You are not still mad." "You called me financially irresponsible." "Okay, fine." "I promise under the penalty of perjury to never give Wendy Rollins monetary advice unless it is expressly asked for." "Thank you." "Now go get us some trash mags and I'll fill up your tank with gas." "Deal." "(beeps)" " (beeps)" " Oh, you stupid devil-worshipping machine." "I'll give you one last chance." " (beeps)" " Why?" "You would not be beeping if I had a hammer right now." "I swear to God, I would smash you into a million pieces." " Ugh." " (beeps)" " (chimes)" " What did you just do?" "Looked like you were having some serious trouble." "I would have figured something out." "Maybe try some panhandling up at the interstate?" "Hey, don't knock panhandlers." "They make more than minimum wage and they don't pay taxes." "Well, sorry if I offended you." "I was just trying to help." "I see you're making friends." "Hi, I'm Jennifer." "Chris." "Nice to meet you." "He just bought us a tank of gas." "Oh, was your credit card declined again?" "I'm now officially mortified." "Well, at the risk of causing you any more embarrassment," "I'd better go." "I didn't get your name." "You know, we're just passing through." "And I don't really give my name to strangers." "Okay, well, you two have a good day." " You, too." " Bye." " Ow." " What is wrong with you?" " That really hurt." " Never give your name to strangers?" " Really?" " What, you've never heard that before?" "Um, when I was five." "He was nice and cute." "I don't care." "I'm not gonna give my name to some gas jockey." "Did you see his car?" "That boy does not pump gas." "Seriously, you need to drop it." "No, not until you admit you were stupid for not getting his number." "Don't give me that look." "I could stand here all day." "Fine." " I was stupid." " Yeah, you were." " You're pushing it." " (giggles)" "Wendy:" "Oh, my gosh." "Jennifer:" "Whoa." "Why didn't you tell me you were rich?" "Wendy:" "I had no idea." "Jennifer:" "Well, just remember I'm your best friend and I love you dearly." "Wendy:" "I'm sorry, I've forgotten your name." " I'm Roy Hutchinson." " Hi." "You must be Wendy." "Yes." "This is Jennifer." " She's my entourage." " Charmed." "Let me first offer my condolences." "So what do you think?" "It's amazing." "This is not how I remember it at all." "Your father was very clear, Wendy." "He's left you everything... the chateau, the winery..." "everything here that you can see." "I don't know what to say." "I mean, my father and I hadn't spoken in years." "Well, he spoke about you constantly." "Jerry especially loved the story about Wendy running around the vineyards, eating grapes and then throwing them up." "Yeah." "Let's go inside, shall we?" "In accordance with your father's wishes, he was cremated." "He asked that his ashes be scattered in the vineyard." "(clears throat) Before you sign anything," "I thought you should know a little bit about the chateau." "The premium label is the Chateau Meroux merlot." "It's a bit pricey, but consistently wins gold medals." " That's cool." " Yeah." "Due to the recession, however, sales are less than a quarter of what they should be." "The chateau has been surviving drawing on your father's" " million-dollar line of credit." " A million-dollar line of credit?" "Well, it's almost as good as a black card." "I don't know anything about wine." "Your father didn't know anything about wine either when he first started." "Your head winemaker Francois... he is a pro." "He's the key to the merlot's success." "The only question is, do you want to go in the wine business?" "I don't even know how to balance a checkbook." "How am I supposed to turn a winery around?" "If you'd prefer, we could put the chateau on the market." "But given the state of the debts, you'd barely break even." "Okay." "The keys." "And the company credit cards." "I know this is a lot to digest." "Take some time to think it over." "I need to know by Monday." " Did he say Monday?" " Today is Friday." "Okay." "Could you...?" "Wait, I'm..." "I'm all over it." "Who the hell is that?" "I have no idea." "Jennifer:" "Hey." "Hey." " Jennifer." " I'm not gonna throw hard." " (Wendy yelps)" " What the...?" "What did you do that for?" "You, out of the pool." " What are you doing?" " I'll handle this." "I've dealt with vagrant freeloaders all my life." "You've met my brothers." " Hi." " Hi." " I'm Wendy." " And the ball thrower is?" "Jennifer." "What are you doing in my friend's pool?" "Your pool?" " Are you Jerry's daughter?" " Yes, she is." "Oh, great meeting you." " I'm Romario." " Of course you are." "I'm the assistant winemaker." "Your father invited me to use the pool." "Must be nice to have a job that lets you slack off all day." "Okay, don't listen to her." "You're more than welcome to use the pool whenever you want." "That's very kind of you." "And you'll find out we work really hard around here." "(speaking Portuguese)" " Really?" " Yeah." "Jen spent some time in Brazil during college." "Ha." "I'm from Sao Paulo." "How lovely for you." "Well, I'll get back to my very hard work." "And I'll always be at your service." "Thank you." "I need wine, lots and lots of wine." "Food first." " Let's restock that fridge." " Yeah." "And you are?" "Nathan Landry." "Wendy Rollins." "Ah, Jerry's daughter." "Yeah." "My condolences." "I own the winery down the road." "We were friendly competitors." "I was looking for Roy." "I thought I might make an offer to buy the place, now that Jerry has ventured forth." "She really hasn't decided what to do with it yet." "Oh, well, naturally." "Settle in." "Check out the books." "Give me a call." "I think you'll find my price fair, given the state of the winery." "Well, that was tacky." "Wendy:" "Yeah, he's pretty bad, right?" "I've been around enough dicks in my life to know one when I see one." "Okay, why don't you deal with the food?" "I'm gonna go check out the competition." "Why do I get stuck with the food?" "Because of my dad's credit card." "Right." "Oh, Skittles." "Hey there." "Run." "Why are we hiding?" "Because I don't want to go to jail and get one of those prison showers." "I don't think they send you to prison for breaking a bottle of wine." "Wendy:" "Anything's possible." "Wendy:" "Hmm." "You're kind of odd." "Oh, I'm odd?" "You're the one who's been stalking me." " Stalking you?" " Yeah." "And to be honest, I don't really appreciate it." "Most of the women I stalk are grateful." "Well, I'm not like most women." "You're not gonna get an argument from me on that." "(chuckles)" "Well, I never really got to properly thank you for today, so let me repay the favor." "I already have a tank of gas, but thanks." "Not your gas, you moron." "Your groceries." "You want to buy my bananas and...?" "Wendy:" "Oh, condoms." "Are you teaching a sex ed class later?" "Look, I appreciate the offer, but I don't think it's appropriate for a woman I barely know to pay for my prophylactics." "I have no idea what that means, but I will take your word for it." " What about dinner then?" " Weren't you just passing through?" "I was, but I just inherited a winery." "Really?" "Which one?" "It's called the Chateau Meroux." "Have you ever heard of it?" "Yeah, yeah, I think I've heard of it." "Well, when you get hungry, just give me a call." "I still don't know your name." "It's Wendy." " Was that the guy from the...?" " Yep." "Were you actually flirting with him?" "I was." "I broke a bottle of wine and offered to buy him condoms." "Oh." "What's for dinner?" "I don't know." "I'm offering you a lot of money," "Francois." "I don't make wine that's served from a box." "I don't want you to." "But I'm about to buy a premium winery and I want a premium winemaker to go with it." "What winery are you buying?" "The Chateau Meroux, of course." "You're buying my winery?" "It's not yours yet, my friend, but it could be." "But what if it was?" "Complete creative freedom." "The old vine Zin." "Oh, those grapes produce three tons per acre." "I can replant with just about anything else and make 12." "And if you owned an animal shelter, you could bottle the piss." "(chuckles)" "The old vine Zinfandel." "And if you want to bottle piss, your son is the man for the job." "You're hiring the Chateau Meroux's winemaker?" "If I have to." "Well, you might want to know that I met his new boss this afternoon." " Wendy?" " Yeah." "How nice." "Ah, you're getting closer." "(rock song playing)" " Yum." " Mm-hmm." "Here comes your man candy." "I'm so not interested in a stupid farm hand." "Okay, a) don't be a snob;" "b) this isn't a farm;" "and c) that's what farm hands are for." "He has a six-pack." "I don't trust him." "You threw something at him." "That's how I know you like him." "Hello, ladies." "Is there anything I can do to help you?" "Yeah, don't touch me." "Thanks." "So, what, you just went over there?" "With Jerry Rollins dead, we've got a good shot at buying the place." " Chris:" "Good grapes." " Better than good." "I'm tired of boxed wines." "I deserve better." "We deserve better." "Now you want the Meroux?" "I want the status that comes with it." "Chris:" "Will she sell?" "Nathan:" "I expect so." "She may need a little friendly nudge." "No." "You want to start toying with your little blends again?" "Talk to her." "Get her to sell." "You'll get your little hottie back and better grapes to work with besides." "What about Francois?" "I didn't hear him agree to the offer." "Did you?" "Hey, girls, the grill is hot and ready." "That is so sweet of you, Romario." "Isn't that sweet of him?" "He's a prince." "Thank you, Fabio." "(quietly) Don't you have some grapes to pick?" "As a token of our appreciation, we would be honored if you would stay for dinner." ""Honored" is overstating it just a little." "Come on, why don't you show us city girls how to heat up some meat?" "Jen here will help you." "Oh, don't give me that look." "I could stand here all day." "(speaking Portuguese)" "(cell phone rings)" "Hello." "This is Wendy." "Hey, it's Chris." "Oh, my stalker." "How's it going?" "Well, I was getting these sharp hunger pains and I thought it might be a good time to take you up on your offer." "Sure." "We're actually having a little barbecue." "We?" "Yeah, Jen and Romario." "Why don't you come on by and eat your face off?" "You know where the Meroux is, yeah?" "I think I can find it." "I'll see you soon." "Okay." "Hey, boys, I'm having a guy come over, so I'm wondering if you could maybe stop on by so it's not too awkward." "You want to help your boss out?" "Free food." "How the hell are you supposed to know when they're done?" "Well, give me your hands." "Feel the skin here." " This is rare." " Mm-hmm." " Here... medium." " Mm-hmm." "And here is well done." " Seriously?" " Yeah." "Hey, look at you, grilling like a professional." "It's my business." "Man:" "Romario." "Excuse me, ladies." "Oh, yo, who the hell are they?" "They're my workers." "It's hot out." "They were thirsty." "So I invited them to join us." "We don't really have enough food for all these people." "Just cut everything in half." "Oh, and Chris is coming." "Homeboy must really like you if he's hightailing it over here." "What can I say?" "I'm irresistible." "What are they whispering about?" "Romario:" "I think they're all worried about losing their jobs now that you're here." "I would never do that." "Okay, 20 bucks to the guy who could tell me the dirtiest joke." "Who's up first?" "I'll take you up on that." " Oh, hey." " Hey." "Um, stalker, this is everyone." "Everyone, this is my stalker." " Hey, Stalker." " Hey." "Looks like you guys are having a good time." "Well, some of the guys... the workers, they were hungry." "So I decided to invite them to our mini-feast." "That's really nice." "We never did anything like that." "We?" "Oh, well, my family used to be in the wine business." "Well, I'll have to pick your brain later." "All right, let's get you some of this food, huh?" "Fantastic." "What started as hunger pains are now full-on body spasms." " Oh." " This is it?" "Wendy:" "Okay, you know what?" "I think food's overrated." "Booze... totally making a comeback." "It's a nice place." "Yeah, I grew up here." "Some of my favorite memories of my family are in these vineyards." "When my parents split up, my dad and I really just didn't have the best relationship." "I know a little bit about that kind of situation." "I have to let them know on Monday if I'm keeping the place, and I just..." "I don't know the first thing about wine." "Do you know how to drink it?" "Right, right." "Well, that's a start." "The rest you learn as you go." " Really?" " Yeah." "Take a sip." "The grapes are crushed into juice, which turns into sugars." "And that sugar converts into alcohol." "Every one of these vines out here turns out about eight bottles of wine." "It can't be that easy." "Well, it's not, but it's a start." "Wendy:" "Well, for a stalker, you're pretty well-informed." "(Chris laughs)" "I try." "Wendy:" "Sorry about dinner." "Let me make it up to you." "Yeah, sounds good." "How's tomorrow?" "Great." "The dishes are done." "You didn't have to do that." "I ate your food, drank your wine." "I was happy to get my hands a little wet." "(laughs) You know, with lines like that you should be writing greeting cards." "Why don't you like me?" "I don't know." "Maybe it's because you sound like you just stepped out of a bad romance novel." "And you don't like romance?" "Sure, I like romance, just not with men that wax their chests." "(speaking Portuguese)" "Mm-hmm." "Oh, what the hell?" "I just went to bed, like, 20 minutes ago." "Oh, did someone have a little too much vino last night?" "Yes." "Bite me." "Come on, I need to get down to the winery to see what's what if I'm going to take this place on." "What does that have to do with me?" "I need my trusty advisor to come with me to make sure I'm not making a mistake." "You'll be fine." "I have complete faith in you." "You just lied to your best friend." " Go away." " I'll meet you downstairs in 15." "(groans)" "I hate you." "Wendy:" "I hate me, too." " Wow." " This is no joke." " Hi, Fabio." " Oh, hey." " My friend has some questions for you." " Yeah?" "I don't really know anything about the winemaking process." "Okay, well, why don't you let me show you around?" " Great." " Okay." "These are the barrels." "That's the bottling room." "That's the lab." "Francois:" "Take your hands off the knobs..." "Oh, and that's our head winemaker Francois." "Well, let's not bother the man if he's busy." "No, no, no, it's no bother." "Francois loves yelling." "Take your big hose and pick it up, because..." "Francois." "I mean it." "I'm done." "Francois, this is Wendy." "Hi." "Pleasure to meet you." " You must be Jerry's daughter." " I am." " He was a very good man." " Doesn't sound like my father." "Really?" "How well did you know your father?" "Uh, anyway, I'm here to learn." "Anyway, I don't have that much time to give lessons to amateurs." "Well, if I'm gonna be taking this place over," "I need to know how things work." "What you need to understand is the importance of letting a professional be alone when he practices his art." "Maybe you need to understand the importance of the meaning of the word "boss."" "In these vats is the finest merlot." "I've won gold medals five consecutive years." "You mean the wines have won?" "They're one and the same." " What's in here?" " Glorified grape juice." " Is it ours?" " Unfortunately your father sometimes had to press other growers' grapes." "In this case the client was as good as the grapes and he didn't pay." " (thud)" " Do not move the pallet." "I'm gonna ask you one more time not to move the pallet." "He likes to yell." "This moves again and you will wish you were under it." "It's a lot to take in." "Yeah." "So if I decide to keep this place," "I want you to be involved." "Obviously I'm great with people, but I don't know the first thing about marketing." "You want me to quit my job and move out here to run your marketing department?" "Yeah, why not?" "Well, for one thing, it's completely irresponsible." "For another thing, I have a job and a life in San Fran." "And you said yourself, you can barely even balance your checkbook." "Boo on you for throwing my financial ineptitude in my face." "And it's just a question." "You could say no." "Okay." "No." "(both chuckle)" "All right, look, maybe I can help out on the weekends like a consultant, you know." "I'll drive up here." "I have to go back to San Fran tonight, but I'd be happy to come up and help when I can." "No." "Offer rescinded." "The offer was, like, 12 seconds ago." "Hey, you've got to act fast on this stuff, honey." "Oh, thank you, Wendy, for your very sound business advice." "Anytime." "So can I buy you a glass of wine while I wallow in my missed opportunity?" "I wish, but I am having dinner with Chris." "Oh, okay." "Well, enjoy." "Don't do anything I wouldn't do." "(thud)" "Are you kidding me?" "Seriously?" "It's good for stress." "You know, you should try it." "Right, only I'm not really stressed." "You're maybe more like repressed?" "(chuckles)" "When are you gonna give it up?" "Oh, well, when I get what I want." "Right, well, I'm leaving tonight, so..." "No." "You shouldn't drive while you're so tense." " It's definitely not safe." " Uh-huh." "Why not leave when you're relaxed?" "Wow." "(thuds)" "(thumping)" "(Jennifer moans)" "Oh, come on." "Come on." "(thudding resumes)" "(knocks)" "Um... (chuckles)" "You." "What, you've never seen a girl in a dress before?" " Wow." " Actually I found it in this dumpster." "Once I got all the mayonnaise stains off, it's pretty hot, right?" "You're not normal." "Yeah, not in the slightest." "So where are you taking me tonight?" "Somewhere cheap and dirty or expensive and downright filthy?" "Is that a trick question?" "Well, I just need to know if I should bring my Mace in or not." "It's mint-scented." "Hopefully I won't have to use it on you later." " You'd better be a good boy." " (laughs)" "(quiet music playing)" "Thank you." " Cheers." " Cheers." "Ooh, it's strong." "When wine has a lot of alcohol, we say it's hot." "Well, it sure is hot, then." "I might be giving lap dances later." "You know, I knew I should have brought more dollar bills." "Yeah, you really messed that one up, huh?" "So what do you do when you're not lurking around gas stations?" "I'm in..." "(clears throat)" "Mergers and acquisitions." "We buy and sell companies, turn things around and sell them for profit." "We're in the middle of a big project right now." "It could be a big promotion for me." "That's great." "Yeah, yeah." "Um, what do you say we order?" "Ready whenever you are." "Mm-mmm." "You're really enjoying that." "This sauce is so good." "I could take a bath in it." " Don't get any ideas." " No, wouldn't dream of it." "Are you interested in dessert tonight?" "Normally I would say yes, but I'm completely stuffed." "I'll just take the check." "Actually, it's already been taken care of." "What?" "You might want to leave." "This could get ugly." " Listen..." " No, don't you "listen" me." "I was supposed to be taking you out to dinner." "Yes, I let you pick me up and I shaved my legs and got a bikini wax just in case, but that does not negate the fact that I was supposed to be treating you." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Dude, dude, dude, you can't freak out every time I yell at you." "Chris:" "Wendy, we can't do this right now." "Wendy:" "We are definitely not doing it later, I can tell you that." "What the hell are you doing under the table?" " There's a woman." "And she's..." " Your wife?" "Your wife?" "I knew it." "I knew I couldn't trust you." " How does it feel, huh?" " Wendy." "What?" "Wendy, she's not my wife." " She's not?" " No." "Oh, my God, I'm so sorry." "Are you bleeding?" "A broken rib maybe." "Anyway, we dated a while back." "If she sees me with another woman, she's gonna flip out." " Where is she?" " That doesn't matter." "We just need to leave here without being seen together." "Okay." "Wait, is she wearing a red dress?" "Um, yeah." "Yeah, yeah, sure, that's her." "Just meet me outside." "Okay, I'm on it." "Oh." "Thank you." "Hello, ma'am." "Excuse me, did you get the vodka tonic?" " The vodka tonic." " All right." " (gasps)" " Oh, no, I am so sorry." "I'm sorry about that." "Which part?" "The part where you hid under the table like a little girl or when you hijacked my thank-you?" "Both." "How can I make it up to you?" "You can't." "You're dead to me." "Come on." "Seriously, be a man for a second." "Why don't you pretend like you've got a penis?" "(chuckles)" "Fine." "Give me a tour of your winery." "Right now?" "It's late." "Since when are you not up for a little adventure?" "This is quite the operation you've got here." "Wendy:" "Yeah, it's not too shabby." "It's not doing so well, though." "Well, you're probably making the wrong kind of wine." "What do you mean?" "Well, I've had your wine." "It's good, but it's expensive." "And that limits your options." "How many people want to buy a $70 bottle of wine?" "That's true." "I've normally only spent $10." "Yeah, plus your signature wine is a merlot." ""Sideways" killed that market years ago." "You should think about branching out, you know, come up with some unique blends that are less expensive." "So you're saying I could blend our expensive wine and put it together with our cheaper wine?" "Yeah." "I mean, if that's what you want." "So how would you market that?" "The Oakvale competition's coming up." "The winner gets a major distribution contract." "Even the exposure itself would bring up sales." "You know a lot about this stuff." "Yeah, a little bit." "It's too bad you're stuck in mergers and acquisitions." "I'm kind of trapped in my family business." "My father never understood my passion for winemaking." "Well, I think you'd make a great winemaker." "You know, the more I learn, the more I like this place." "Maybe I'll stay." "You know, it's late." "I'd better get going." "But in the interest of pretending I have a penis," "I demand that you make me dinner tomorrow night" " and it be ready by 7:00." " Yes, sir." "And you'll be wearing a French maid's uniform." "Okay, now you're pushing it." "Let me walk you out." "Really, Romario?" "What's wrong with this picture?" "Jennifer... she wore me out." "So I heard." "You did?" "You see, big house plus thin walls equals lots of echoing." "I'm sorry." "I must tell you," "I really like her." "Is that so?" "I'm surprised." "I think Jennifer will be as well." " Good night." " Good night." "Oh, you're here early." "I thought you were gonna call when you were done with Wendy." "Well, it got kind of late." " It wasn't like that." " Uh-huh." "How did everything go?" "Fine." "She's kind of odd, but she opened up to me." "Uh-huh." "And?" "She's starting to like the place." "Huh." "Well, then..." "We'll have to speed things up." "Argh!" "Damn sciatica." "You're getting there." " Right here." " Okay." "Great." " And alli." " There." "So is this the one for the credit line?" "Yes, we'll get it transferred over to you real soon." "Super." "(cell phone rings)" "Roy Hutchinson." "Roy, Nathan Landry." "Listen, I don't want to tell you your job, but don't you have a professional responsibility to tell your client she can't handle the winery on her own?" "Well, she's right here, Nathan." "Maybe you should tell her yourself." "Hello." "Miss Rollins, how nice to talk to you again." "I just thought I'd catch you before you did something foolish." "My offer on the Chateau Meroux still stands, but I will need to know today." "Well, that is very kind of you, but..." "I'm gonna keep the Chateau." "A bold decision." "I hope you know what you're getting into." "Do I know what I'm getting into?" "We have to change the game plan." "How so?" "When are you seeing her again?" "She's cooking me dinner tonight." "Perfect." "Just keep her busy." "Wait, what are you planning to do?" "Exactly what I have to do." "(cell phone rings)" "(cell phone rings)" "Hey, stranger." "Hey, how's it all going?" "Well, I actually need you to get your butt back here because things are really heating up with this whole wine madness." "I have a job." "Well, I'm gonna pay you." "It doesn't count when you pay people in Twinkies." "I'll be back as soon as I can." "Okay, well, just remember that I seriously need you and you're gonna be plagued with guilt until you get back here and help me out." "Is there anything else I can do for you while I entirely uproot my life?" "Oh, yes, can you get my yellow dress and that cashmere sweater?" "And then also by the door I have these amazing heels that..." "No Twinkies for you." "I'm sorry I'm late." "I got held up in a business thing." "Typical." "Well, you're gonna have to sing for your supper now." "Well, I'm not the best vocalist." "I sound more like a dying dog." "Oh, okay." "Well, bark then." "Excuse me?" "Just bark like the dog you are." "(chuckles)" "I'm not barking for you." "Then you're not coming in." "Wait." "Hey, hey, wait." "Wait a minute." "(barking)" "That was pathetic." "(both chuckle)" "You... you're gonna get punished for that." " I'm so not afraid of you." " Oh, you should be." "(owl hooting)" "(pop song playing)" "(owl hooting)" " (quiet song playing)" " Mm." "That was surprisingly good." "Well, I guess we're even now." "Not if I do the dishes." "So if you're interested in another home-cooked meal, you're gonna have to clean my whole house." "What does this give me?" "A blueberry." "Wendy, there's been an accident." "Come, come quickly." "We've lost an entire tank." "That's half of our best wine." "Oh, my God, I can't believe this." "I checked the tanks yesterday and they were fine." "All right, go get cleaned up." "I'm sorry." "Look, Wendy, I really am sorry." "Look, what do you say we clean this place up, okay?" "Okay." "(clears throat)" "Is there a problem?" " Yeah, let me show you." " Oh, okay." "But seriously, don't get me wet." "I see where this is going." "Don't get me wet." "No, I'm not." "I wouldn't do that." "Okay, good." "'Cause that's not..." " Stop." " What?" " Don't get me wet." " You walked into the spray." "No, don't get me wet." "Okay, give me that." "No, no." "Look, just be careful not to release the nozzle too quickly." "What, like that?" "Oh, that's not funny." "What about like that?" "Okay." "Stop it."

"I mean, I guess Francois is really gonna have to produce for us." "You could always sell the place." "Oh, believe me, I thought about it, but I've had enough defeat for one lifetime." "You've got some serious challenges here, Wendy." "I don't want to see anything bad happen." "Nothing's gonna hurt me." "You're not gonna let anything stop you." "No." "Good for you." "It's never boring around you, is it?" "Not if I can help it." " Good night." " Good night." " Jennifer:" "Hey." " Hey." "I told you I'd be back." "Oh." "What happened to the important job you just couldn't pull yourself away from?" " I quit." " Really?" " Yeah." " Oh." "That crazy guilt trip thing you did actually worked." "And, I mean, let's face it:" "You need me something fierce." "Besides, what kind of friend would I be if I wasn't there for you in your hour of need?" "Okay, well, in the interest of full disclosure," "I should probably tell you that our wine vats exploded tonight and we lost about 50% of our juice." "Come again?" "(cell phone rings)" "Nathan, why are you calling me this late?" "Francois, we need to talk." "I'm having a big problem right now." "It's not a good time." "I'm upping my offer:" "Leave the Meroux and I'll finance your private label... anything you like." "I want the old vine Zinfandel." "Whatever." "I need to know in 24 hours." "Half your stock?" "Like as in 50%?" "More like 60% or 70%." "You said half." "Well, that's, you know, an expression like "I've never really done this before."" "Wendy, this is a disaster." "How are you so calm right now?" "Whoa, that's not a tequila shot." "Oh, my God." "I quit my job." "I don't even have medical insurance." "How am I gonna be able to afford food?" "How are you not freaking out right now?" "Because I already freaked out and you're making me freak out all over again." " Jeez." " Okay." "Okay, okay." "All right, so what do we do?" "Okay, tomorrow morning we're gonna start a whole new blend, okay?" "We're gonna take the rest of what's left of the expensive wine and mix it with the less expensive juice." "Do you have enough to launch a new brand?" "We'd better." "Francois and Romario are just gonna have to really step it up." "How is the farm hand doing?" "Apparently he really likes you." "Oh, no." "No, no, no, no, no." "It was only supposed to be physical." "Don't hurt his feelings, okay?" "Yeah, I know." "I know." "Hmm." "Okay, so tomorrow, 10:00 AM, senior staff meeting." "I need you there." "Yes, boss." "I like the sound of that." " Hey." " Hey." "What took you so long?" "What made you think I was coming back at all, hmm?" "Don't joke." "Every moment away from you is like an eternity." "Maybe less talking for you." "Come here." "(sighs)" "You know what?" "I have a really busy day." "Sorry." " I'm sorry." "Sorry." " Okay." " We need to..." " (zips)" "We need to turn this place around, especially after last night's accident." "So we're gonna create a less expensive blend." "Your father did not hire me to make slop." "Of course not." "I'm not suggesting that you create slop, but we need to enter new markets." "I really don't care about new markets." "And I don't really care about your problems." "Well, you'd better start caring, because as of today, I'm your new boss." "You are not my boss, because I'm no longer your winemaker." "Wendy:" "What just happened?" "My dreams of owning a summer home were just flushed down the toilet." "No." "No." "We can do this." "We just need to lock down the blend." "Right." "Jennifer, you're on marketing." "Romario, you go and do whatever it is that you do." "And I've got one more favor to call in." "Pull!" "(gunshot)" " Shit." " (cell phone rings)" " Pull!" " Now's not really a good time." "Wendy: 10 seconds." "I just want to tell you we're launching a new wine just like you suggested." "Jennifer is back." "We're full speed ahead." " That's..." " Nathan:" "Pull!" " Congratulations." " (gunshot)" "Wendy:" "Yeah, the only teeny problem is Francois just quit." "And I don't know anything about blends." "Pull!" " (gunshot)" " Damn." " Maybe I can help." " Great." "Do you think you can come by this afternoon?" "I'll be there." "How's everything at Meroux?" "You tampered with the vats, didn't you?" "Pull!" "(gunshot)" "Nathan:" "Damn." "I don't know what you mean, but if I did, it would be because I have our best interests in mind." "Pull!" " (gunshot)" " She's launching a new wine." "Say what?" "She's launching a new wine." "(laughing) Really?" "How's she gonna do that without a winemaker?" "This is business." "And in business I leave nothing to chance." "I don't want to have anything to do with this anymore." "It's wrong and you know it." "You've done more than enough already." "Do that girl a favor." "Don't see her again." "When I own the Meroux," "I'll drop Francois and you'll be the head winemaker, just as I promised." "(cocks gun) Pull!" "(gunshot)" "Chris:" "Ooh, almost." "God damn it." "How am I supposed to know which one?" "We don't know exactly." "It's trial and error and a little prayer thrown in for a good measure." "I don't have time for trial and error." "Okay, what do you say we change things up a little?" "First, stop thinking." "It's not about the grape." "It's not about the process." " It's about what you like." " Okay." "Smell." "Now taste." "(clears throat) It's a little dry on the sides of my tongue." " Typical cabernet." " Ugh." "Now this." "It's fruity." "Is it fruity?" "That's your merlot," "Chateau Meroux, 2006." " Oui, oui." " (both chuckle)" "Okay, one more." "Mm, I like this." "It's... it's soft yet kind of spicy." "Is this mine?" "It's a Syrah, not yours." "I wish it was." "(phone rings)" "Adam, it's Landry here." "I've done better." "But compared to my neighbors," "I'm doing well." "What's that?" "You didn't hear what happened over at the Meroux?" "Oh, they had a little accident." "I like this one." " Compare with the next one." " Okay." " This one is a little more Syrah." " Yes." "Now keep going." "Now follow your instincts until you find the one you like." "Psst." "It's her birthday next week." " Oh, yeah?" " Mm-hmm." "They're usually a disaster." "Text me some gift ideas." "I'll see what I can do about dinner."

"(sniffs)" "(sucks in air)" "(all laugh)" " So that's it?" " Almost." " Almost?" " A little secret... we strain it through egg whites just to smooth it out." "Sounds like a really disgusting omelet." "Trust me, it's the finishing touch." "How's the design coming?" "Why don't we just call it Chateau Meroux Meritage?" "Huh-uh, we gotta rebrand." "Apparently people see the Chateau wine as this old-school grandma wine." "We want young, hip, trendy." "I get it." "I just don't have it yet." " (phone beeps)" " Well, a girl can dream." "(sighs)" " How's Romario?" " He's been texting me all day." "I mean, enough already." " Dirty texts?" " No, dirty texts I want." "I get really stupid, sappy love sonnets." "(phone beeps)" "Just do me already." "(sighs)" "What about a text abbreviation?" "For "do me"?" "No, no, no, for your wine..." "YN." "Wine..." "YN." "Oh, that's good." "That's actually really good." "YN... that's our new brand name." " (phone beeps)" " Love it." "(sighs) Ugh." "Romario, Romario." "Uh, what is this?" "Shakespeare." "I read books." "Listen, what we did... it was just physical." " But..." " Just physical." "No, no, no." "I can't do this." " But..." " I can't." "What?" "Wendy, this should just take a second." "I need you to sign this amendment to the line of credit transfer I filed." "Amendment?" "Yeah, the bank found out about the wine spill." " Oh." " They want to do an asset check." "Okay, this isn't gonna mess anything up though, right?" "No, it shouldn't." "Okay." "It should all be settled in a couple of days." "You frighten me sometimes." "I get that a lot."

"Oh, that one." "He didn't tell you?" "Chris was quite eager when I asked him to keep an eye on you." "He's been a big help keeping me apprised of all the goings on at the Chateau." "But I must say, launching a new wine... that will be difficult." "It's not something for an amateur." "Stop, please." "The farther you drive it into the ground, the cheaper it will be for me to buy it." "I'm not gonna sit here and listen to this." "Hmm." " Wendy." " No." " Wendy." " Don't touch me." "I trusted you." "Look, I know and I'm sorry, but my dad..." "Please don't give me that dad crap." "Aren't you an adult?" "You lied to me." "I didn't exactly lie to you." "Spying on me?" "And what was that whole romance thing?" "I mean, were you just trying to get some ass on the side or...?" " That's not true." " Don't touch me." "You wanted me to sell, right?" "I mean, that's why you asked me out in the first place?" "When were you gonna tell me the truth?" "It's complicated." "Complicated?" "Okay."

"You've got to make a payment to the bank, otherwise they're gonna foreclose." "The other option is to sell to Nathan." "I'm really, really sorry." "(sighs)" " Hey." " Hi." "What's all this?" "Cards." "I guess my father kept them after they were returned." "Are you okay?" "No." "I mean, I just started to get to know him through all of this." "Now it's gonna be taken away." "You're not gonna lose the winery." "Yeah, I am." "Roy stopped by last night." "Our line of credit has been frozen because we lost so much of the wine stock." "We have no money... literally."

"All they make is boxed wine." "He cheated." "What?" "That's ridiculous." "He put one of his labels on an expensive bottle." "This is completely inappropriate." "If Rabbit's Leap won fairly, then any of their bottles should taste just as good as the one the judges got." "Of course." "Chris:" "Choose another bottle from his tent."
