[ Woman Narrating ]
It all began at the Rlaza Hotel:::
twenty years ago
in the month ofjune:
- [ Crowd Chattering ]
- Two mothers brought their
daughters, Liv and Emma:::
here to the Ralm Court for tea:
On that afternoon,
there was a wedding:
There was something blue,
something borrowed:::
and something completely magical:
And two little girls
from New jersey:
::held in their hands a new dream-
that one day they would find
that one person:
::who would stand by them
no matter what:
::and when they did, they too:::
would havejune weddings at the Rlaza:
Thank you.
And, yes, Your Honor, I will take
this lofty man to be my husband.
I always knew my wedding
would be the happiest day of my life.
Now I will dance with you
until we have six babies and a house.
Do you think they let pets
inside the Plaza?
Well, it's not like we're getting married
until we're 1 6 at least:
Next time, can I play the bride?
Emma, you know
I always play the bride.
# This will be an everlasting love #
- # This will be- ##
- Not too shabby.
- Cigar roller, white glove service-
- Great deejay.
[ Liv ]
So we both admit it's beautiful.
- Um,yeah:
- But?
Do you think it's the work
of Marion St:
Claire?Oh. Marion's a visionary.
Mmm?
- Oh.
- If it had been my wedding-
- Oh,just say it.
- It ain'tjune.
- And it ain't the Plaza.
- It's the elephant in the room.
Yeah.
[ Gasps ]
- And here you are.
- Oh, look.
A duck made out of ice.
Isn't this great?
Know what else is great?
Going home early and watching
your backed-up TiVo?
Am I that predictable?
How about one more dance...
and I'll give you my piece
of the cake- if you let me lead.
Very funny.
- Come on. Come on.
- You know I always lead.
Hey. Oh.
Hi, girls.
[ Laughs ]
- Are you ready to catch this bouquet?
- Gotta go.
- I'm so happy all of you are here:
- On the other hand, always fun.
I know. They take it so seriously.
- My work friends, sort of:
My college buds- Oh, my God:
Emma Allan, is that the same dress
you wore to the Delta Gamma...
""Kegs for a Cause'' semiformal,
like, a bazillion years ago?
[ Murmuring ]
- Yeah.
- What's your point? Because it's a classic.
- If a dress works, you work it hard.
- Oh.
See, that is sweet. And loyal.
Girlfriends sticking up
for each other.
I like that, a lot: Keep that:
- Anyway, are you guys ready to catch this?
- Yeah.
Just think about it,
feel it, catch it-
One, two, three!
[ Narrator]
I would have seen the signs if I'd been there:
It's all right there:
Look at Emma's eyes-Like a hunter's:
And Liv's hand-How would you like that
clasped around your throat?
Not that either of them can imagine
hurting each other at this point:
Why should they?
They've been inseparable for 20 years:
Okay, slow down.
- Why can't we run with iPods?
- We can't run with iPods because iPods...
are for people who can't be alone
with their own thoughts.
I'm literally running circles around you.
Do you know that?
Do you know how many things
You know what a multitasker I am.
You're not enjoying my conversation?
Is that what you're saying?
- I'm hurt. I am very hurt, Liv.
- I gotta go.
- All right. Have a good day.
- Love you.
- Call me. Tell me how the meeting goes.
- Whoo!
- WhooI
- [ Bell Dings ]
- Hey, did you get the changes to the brief?
- Read and highlighted in the cab.
- Great.
Purse. It's like the whole city
is made out of lint.
It's an aggressive approach, exploiting
the weaknesses of our plaintiffs case:::
and I think judicially
we'll find favor-
Particularly if we pulljustice Givens.
Thank you, Liv.
Our best associate, Mr. Simmons.
Maybe your approach
is too aggressive.
I mean, if we pound them:::
as you suggest, they'll hardly
be in the mood to settle.
Mr. Simmons, you don't-
You don't know me, but I-
I know you:
All you need to know
is how badly you want to win...
because we won't be settling.
- You're right. She's perfect.
- [ Bell Rings ]
- Oh, Ms. Allan?
- Hey, Robert. What's up?
I think Ms. Delgado
is looking for you.
Is she? W-Was she nearby?
- She- She's in her room.
- She's-
Emma, there you are.
- Oh, God, Deb. Hi.
- I know. Isn't it gorgeous?
God, I feel so blessed to have this body.
[ Chuckles ]
- You know, I am so late-
- No, no, no. Listen. You gotta help me out here.
- You know the debate team?
- Yeah.
I cannot go to the state finals.
I mean, children talking
Ugh! You gotta do it for me.
Yeah, Deb, I'm already doing
your late bus patrol...
and pep squad and your
after-school detention.
- You're the debate team adviser.
I don't think that I should-
- I know.
I do so much.
I wish I could just
do the bare minimum.
I so admire you for that.
Thank you.
Anyway, all right, look.
Here's how we'll work it out.
- I'll do the debate team-
- Okay, good.
Uh-huh. If you take my Tuesday
study halls for the rest of the year.
- Okay?
- Yeah, that's- No.
[ Laughing ]
All right. You owe me, girl.
- Get out of the hallway, kids!
- You know why she does this?
- You're the best teacher at that school.
- No, I-
so you crack under pressure.
- Mm-mmm.
- Middle school's a jungle.
I don't know. I think she's kind of sad.
I mean, she's been divorced,
like, three times.
She's way ahead of us.
I mean, where are our divorces?
- God, I hate Daniel! [ Laughs ]
- ##[ Rhone]
No, Kevin. I'm dealing with a crisis.
What's your crisis?
Uh, that's code for
""I don't want to talk to you.''
Oh, I see. Well, then thank you
for putting me through.
- See? I told you those jeans
would look great on you.
- They aren't too tight?
No, no:
Not at all: But this-I mean, Emma, yellow-
Not your color.
Okay? Seriously.
Oh, but you know what? Try this.
Because-You know what? Keep it.
- Well-
- It never hung right on me anyway.
Of course it doesn't
hang right on you.
