Marrying Mr. Darcy

---

1

Hey!

And how's our favorite

customer?

Oh, you say that to everyone.

But with you I meant it.

We've got fresh madeleines.

Yum.

Ah-ah-ah, your money's

no good here.

Amy got an A in history class

thanks to your help

so free treats all month.

Thank you.

By the way, how's the job

search going?

Well, I'm waiting to hear

about a teaching job.

Until then I'm tutoring

and staying at my mother's

friend Gabrielle's house.

Oh, she's a nice lady.

Mmmhmm.

Oh, and I'm training her dog,

Rose, too.

How's your handsome boyfriend?

He's still the most handsome

gentleman in New York.

[message alert]

It's Mr. Wonderful.

Donovan wants to meet

in the park

for a picnic with the pups.

Mmmhmm.

I will see you tomorrow.

Thank you.

Love.

Come here.

[laughs]

Mr. Darcy?

Miss Scott.

I wish we could stay

like this forever.

Well, we'd get rained on.

Mmm.

If it's with you I don't care.

[whimper]

Well?

Open it.

It's a new collar for Bliss.

Bliss, look. It's pink.

Wow!

Love changes people.

Loving you has changed me.

You make me feel alive.

Like everything before you

was in black and white

and now I can see color

for the first time.

I want to share

my life with you.

Elizabeth Scott,

will you marry me?

Is- is that a yes?

Yes.

Yes, yes, yes!

Yes!

May I?

Yes.

Do you see that,

Bliss and Jax?

I love it.

I love you.

[barking]

[pouring rain]

Come on!

[laughing]

Good thing you live across

the street!

Ahh!

Come on!

Oh, Bliss, awe, I'm sorry.

[whimpers]

Oh, I have to call my mom!

[phone ringing]

Oh honey, I am so happy for you!

Me too!

Congratulations, Lizzy!

You knew?

Of course we do.

Donovan called us this morning

to ask my permission.

Is he there?

Let- let's see him.

She said yes.

Yaaa!

[squealing]

Congratulations!

I'm just so thrilled.

I've been waiting so long

to plan this with you two.

In fact...

Surprise!

I have ideas.

It's gonna be so fun.

I'll come out to D.C.

this weekend

and we can get started.

Oh, and I can't wait

to see the new shop.

I love you, mom.

Love you, Jenna.

Bye!

Love you, bye!

Love you!

I am so happy

that you said yes.

Did you ever really doubt it?

Are you kidding me?

I never know what

you're gonna say.

It's one of the things

that I love about you.

[gasps]

You said yes!

I told you.

It was so obvious you'd say yes.

But my big brother was a wreck

worrying about it.

Was not.

A total wreck.

[giggles]

It's wonderful.

Your mother just called.

I'm so happy for you both.

That is the fastest call

on record.

Well, of course

she called me.

I'm her best friend,

after all.

And you're basically a niece

and now you're a nephew.

Congratulations.

So, have you picked

a date?

Not yet.

Probably sometime in the fall.

We met in the fall.

Mmmhmm.

So that'll be nice.

Yeah.

Seven or eight months is not a

lot of time but you can do it.

We'll have plenty of time,

and we're gonna have exactly

the wedding that we want.

(Elizabeth):
This is a great

revision on your essay.

(Zara):
Thanks to your help.

Hi, Jax, hi. Hi.

Hi.

Hey.

We're just going over Zara's

history paper.

You know, Amelia Earhart

used to be one of my heroes.

What made you think of her?

Aunt Violet took me to the air

and space museum last summer.

What did Aunt Violet do?

You wouldn't talk to me

about it.

Well, someone was spreading lies

about me and she believed them.

She was just protecting

your brother.

She was trying to embarrass

Elizabeth and break us up.

Well, now everybody knows

the truth

and it's time for us

to move on.

You're sure?

I think a wedding is the perfect

time to patch things up.

I'll talk to her.

Ok.

Alright, so, if we just condense

the ending a little bit,

It will structure everything

nicely.

Violet?

Violet.

Donovan.

Oh, I'm so happy to see you.

It's good to see you, too.

When you didn't return

my phone calls

I was worried you were never

gonna talk to me again.

The thought had crossed my mind.

I'm sorry for what I did.

I have regretted it every day.

You know, you really

have Elizabeth

to thank for me being here.

Family is very important to her.

Well, it is for me, too.

I've missed you and Zara

every single day.

I know. I know.

You've always been there

for me and Zara

and for that I am grateful.

Oh, you're looking so well.

I am. I am.

I'm really happy.

Maybe it shows.

Go on.

I've asked Elizabeth

to marry me.

I want to spend the rest of

my life with her.

Th... this is sudden.

Well, sudden or no,

I love her.

You just need to get to know

her better.

I'm sure you'll love her

as much as I do.

I suppose I have another apology

to make.

(Elizabeth):
I don't

believe it!

Aunt Violet just apologized

to me.

That's a first.

[phone ringing]

And that's Violet

taking it back.

Hello?

Hello, Miss Scott?

This is Principal Spraker

at the Van Buren Academy.

Oh, hello.

Listen, I'm calling because

we've narrowed

down the applicants

for our ninth grade

history teacher position

that starts fall semester.

I'd like to interview

you personally.

Would the 17th at 10:00PM

work for you?

Yes, yes. I will be there.

Thank you.

Perfect.

We'll see you then.

Bye-bye.

They wanna interview me

for that teaching job.

New job?

New husband?

New life.

[laughs]

Yeah.

They've updated your CEO bio

and you need to approve it.

Donovan Darcy is the head of

Darcy Enterprises,

one of the nation's

most innovative

private investment firms.

That's good.

Um, have them include something

about my work

with the foundation.

I never stress that enough.

I'll make a note.

What's next on the agenda?

Uh, me.

I'm sorry, who are you?

Your best friend?

Legal counsel?

Incredibly good-looking man

of mystery.

Ah. I will give you

two out of three.

You get to pick the two.

So I'm not your

best friend anymore?

That's the one you picked?

Cool with it.

Whaddya got?

I have the final contract

for the new rec center

for you to sign.

Mmm.

Riveting.

Speaking of, have you seen

the new rec center?

Nice.

Personally I would have made it

a little bigger.

Well, at the ground breaking

in June it probably will be.

Ah.

Brendan, please start

a guest list

for the ground

breaking ceremony.

Make sure my fianc is at the

top and make sure she has a car.

Will do.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Hmm.

You better ask her.

Well, of course

she's going to go.

You can't just assume that

Elizabeth is gonna do things.

I tried that once or twice

with Jenna,

didn't go over so well.

The Scott sisters

should be involved

in all of the decision making.

[chuckles]

Good point.

Brendan, I'm going to ask

Elizabeth if she would like

to go to the ground

breaking ceremony

and I will let you know

what she says.

You sure it's alright if Violet

joins us for dinner?

Of course.

She did apologize.

Maybe we should wait

for her downstairs.

She could get here early.

No, Violet is never early.

She's always exactly

25 minutes late

which she says is good form.
