I know what happened.

He bailed on me.

I wouldn't say bail

as left you in charge.

Hello.

Who is this?

So I just walked over.

I don't know what came over me

and I just said,

"I'm not leaving here until...

"Until I meet you. I'm sorry."

And, uh... Huh. Who was it?

Ali. I'll call her back later.

Oh, see?

Crazy friend, Ali again.

Anyway, uh, I don't know what...

I hope I'm not interrupting.

Just saw a man leaving.

It was a delivery.

Tessa, why are you here?

At our house?

David's jury summons came to me.

He did live there for years.

It's not always all about you, Julia.

If you're going to be a parent,

especially to my daughter,

I'd like you to learn that lesson. Fast.

You're sure they're not

from David Connover?

And what do you mean there's no record

of who sent the arrangement?

How is that possible?

The order was done anonymously.

I'm not sure where it's coming from.

- Okay.

- Sorry about that.

- Thank you.

- Have a nice day.

Jules! We're home.

Hi, Julia.

No! Go to sleep!

Well, maybe it's because

the restraining order is up

and I can't renew it.

But I just feel like it's him

making these calls.

Take a deep breath, all right?

No one knows where you live.

You're not on Facebook or Twitter.

You basically don't exist.

And this has happened before.

Remember when we were up in Big Sur

and you thought he was following us

in that truck?

- Yeah, but...

- Or you thought you saw him at the window,

but it was really just David.

You're right.

You still haven't told David

what happened to you, huh?

It's gonna be

really hard to tell him, Ali.

Really hard.

I don't want him to see me like that.

I don't want it to change anything.

Hey, what about calling that doctor

that you liked so much at The Meadows?

No.

I'm okay.

He'll love me no matter what, right?

There is nothing not to love.

I love you and I don't even like people.

Jules?

I gotta go.

I love you, too.

Hey-

Hey

Sorry, I just couldn't sleep.

Well, is everything okay?

Yeah.

Come on.

Hmm.

Well, just go with a little black dress.

You've got one. It's perfect.

- Okay.

- And I love these earrings. Use these.

- These are nice.

- Thank you.

Look, I think you got

the whole look. You'll be fine.

- I think so.

- I wouldn't, uh...

Hi, Julia.

Hi, Tessa.

WOMAN". I'll see you.

Just finished a board meeting

at Lily's school.

I'm never quite sure what to do

with the alone time.

Yeah. These days, me, too.

- Listen, Julia. I--

- No, about yesterday--

No, no. I came by unannounced. It was--

No, I shouldn't have talked

to you like that.

I know I can come on a bit strong.

No.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't have snapped at you.

Forgiven. It happens.

Thanks, Tessa.

Can I buy you lunch?

Yeah.

Good.

Good.

Yeah, this town really

is its own little world, isn't it?

Yeah. I forgot how hard it is

to move to a new place.

Tell me about it.

It was hard for me to move here, too.

And now it seems like

you've been here forever.

It took a while.

Then everything fell apart.

Or I tore it apart.

Either way.

I assume David told you.

It was my affair that ended everything.

Oh. Um...

Yes.

Affair is too strong a word for it.

It was really only twice.

I was just so frustrated and isolated.

David was consumed with work.

Always home late.

He barely even knew I existed.

I mean, everything you just said.

You don't know anybody, you're lonely.

Your whole life is in flux, but he's

having a completely different experience.

You have far more going on.

I only had David and Lily.

She's so sweet, by the way.

She is. Thank you.

- Thank you, Val.

- Thank you.

Mmm.

Julia,

can I confess something?

Sure. Yes.

I was...

I was really very scared to meet you.

- Me?

- Yes! It's intimidating.

This glamorous life in the city.

You're an editor

and gorgeous and talented

and effortlessly beautiful.

Thank you.

That's very lovely of you to say,

and I was terrified to meet you.

I mean, obviously because

of Lily and everything,

but then on top of that, you're perfect.

All the time.

Thank you. You're gonna do great here.

And your connection with David, it's...

You talk, you laugh.

What? You didn't?

Not really.

Come on.

We always loved each other. Of course.

But ours was a more physical thing.

We always had incredible chemistry.

David was insatiable.

It eclipsed everything.

Frankly, it was a little exhausting.

A different position every night.

Public places.

It's like we just could not

get away from each other.

But I'm sure I don't have

to tell you how he is.

Yeah. He's amazing.

You know there was a time when I thought

we were on the road

to getting back together.

We even went to therapy.

But then he met you.

We'll always be close.

You can't get any closer

than having a child together.

The infinite bond

of our gorgeous little girl.

Oh, I keep forgetting.

Let me see the ring.

Oh. Um...

It's getting cleaned.

Yeah, it was David's grandmother's ring.

Oh.

Well, next time.

I really actually have to get going.

I'm buying Lily a new horse.

Upgrading from the pony she usually rides.

She's really excited.

I bet.

I'm really glad that we did this.

It was nice.

I'll see you soon.

We're certified organic.

I'm hungry.

Me, too. We're gonna wait

till we get to Daddy's booth

and then we're gonna have lunch

with him, okay?

This is probably him.

Who is this?

Who is this?

Come on.

Lily?

But I couldn't stop.

Lily?

Lily!

Hey!

What happened? Where's Lily?

I don't know. She just ran off.

Okay, how long ago did you lose her?

Just now. A few minutes ago, maybe.

I don't know.

David, sh*t, I'm sorry.

I'm gonna get security.

You just keep looking, okay?

Okay-

Guys, hold down the fort.

I'll be right back.

You got it.

Lily!

Lily?

Okay.

Okay.

Lily!

Lily!

Lily!-

Sorry. Sorry, sorry, sorry.

I'm sorry.

Just wandering around by herself,

and I saw her talking to some guy

that she said knows Julia.

David, listen, this is

completely unacceptable.

This is total negligence on her part.

I can't have it.

Yeah, I got it.

I understand how it looks.

It was an accident.

It could have happened to any of us.

You know how she...

Tessa said that she found Lily

talking to some guy

she'd never met before.

What guv'?

I don't know. All right, she seemed

to think that you knew him.

She did? What did she say?

I just wanna know if it's true.

If what is true?

I don't know who she's talking about!

Where's your ring, Julia?

How come you haven't been wearing it?

Nowhere.

I took it off to take a bath the other day

and I thought I knew

where I placed it. But...

It's gotta be in the house, though.

So, I've been looking for it.

Why would you tell Tessa

that it's being cleaned then?

I don't know! I...

Why did she bring it up?

Who sent you flowers?

I don't know.

I called to find out and ask and...

It must have been a mistake.

Look.

I get that

you're going through a rough time,

that, uh, it's an adjustment period
