Oh, my God. No way.
I made this bucket list the night of my quinceañera.
It's all the fun stuff I wanted to do before I got old.
Ooh. I'll take that.
Wait. Jorgito! Wait! Jorgito.
- Wait, Jorgito! - [laughter]
Okay. All right.
"Get a tattoo." As if.

So, seriously, who's gonna help me take care of my bucket list?
I love you, but I can't.
Henry and I are going to see the wedding planner today.
- Aw! - [chuckles] Yeah.
Sorry, babe, I can't either.
Charlie has a soccer game today,
and their mom is gonna be there.
Shut up.
- No way. - Wait, have you stalked her yet?
No. I didn't want to do that.
- Wait, hold up. - I di... No.

If both of you are busy, who's gonna help me with my list?
Sorry, babe. Maybe abuelo or abuela are available.
Yeah, they love skinny-dipping.

They're still banned from that downtown Marriott.
- Really? - [laughing] They are.

Oh.
To my favorite big sister
on her double quinces.

- That retainer, though. - I swear.
- Why does she still wear it? - Oye.
- Jorgito. - Yeah.
Don't forget our appointment later.
Ah, right, the test. Yes.
- Mm-hmm. - [Sol] What test?
Um, it's this Catholic quiz thingy
for marriage compatibility.
I'm sorry, did the Pope just pass
a thing allowing us to get parried in church?
- 'Cause I didn't get that phone call. - Stop.
Well, I tried to talk Father Bautista into allowing my boys
to marry in the church,
- and he said no. - [Jorge] Hey.
Abuela, it's fine.
- No. - It is.
I don't really love the aesthetic anyway, so we're good.
We'll be over later, and I love you very, very much.
- Yo también te quiero mucho. - [Jorge] Mm.
Look at you.
[sighs] Yeah, well,
I think she just wants some sort of Catholic stamp of approval.
It means a lot to her, and I love her,

Ah.
Hey, Lil. Happy birthday.
What's up? You need me to bring something tonight?
[Lily] Nope, we're all set.
I was actually wondering if you were free before the party
for a little adventure.
Ooh. You know I love a mysterious adventure.
- I am there. - Sweet.

Sorry. Can't. Sorry. Forgot I was booked.
- Uh, but I will see you tonight. - Okay.
- See you tonight. - Bye.
Aw. [chuckles]
[buzzing]
Of course you'd call instead of text.
Some say predictable, I say reliable.
Happy birthday, Lily.
It's good to hear your voice.
Texting every once in a while has been nice,
- but there's something about your velvety baritone. - Thank you.
Um, anyway,
uh, I just wanted to call and say happy birthday,
you know, and I've done that, so...
Well, thank you for calling.
Yeah, thank you for being born. [chuckles]
Yeah. Uh, you know, I should probably go, and...
Hey, you think you can successfully teach me
how to drive stick?
What?
I found this bucket list I made when I was 15,
and you know how much I hate leaving to-do lists incomplete,
so I thought I'd give myself a little adventure
and cross a few things off of it today.
I'm sorry. It's so silly.
- I-I'm sure you're busy. - No.
No, no, I can, I can come over.
There's something I've been meaning to give you, anyway.
Only thing is, I had to get rid of my truck.
But we can always use one of your dad's cars.
He's out of the country, so I can't ask him.
But taking his car without his permission
would delight 15-year-old me,
- so let's do it. - All right.
Let's do it. Um, yeah, I'll see you in a little bit.
Rock and roll.
All right, bye.
Hey, kiddo, what's up?
You were unusually quiet in the car.
I was singing along to the Grateful Dead,
and you didn't make fun of me once.
You nervous about the game?
Please, there's literally nothing less important
than the result of a children's athletic competition.
This kid gets it.
I guess I'm a little nervous about Sol meeting Mom.
- Wait, you are? - Yeah.
I mean, Mom's the best, but she's...
Intense.
Watch it, Dad.
But intense, yeah.
She's super intense.
And, you know, she, sometimes, she's a little...
- Judgy? - Dad, stop.
But yeah, judgy. She's totally judgy.
Wait, judgy how?
Like mom-judgy.
Oh, I want to chime in so badly.
[Charlie] It all comes from a good place.
She's just a little overprotective,
and I guess I want things to go well,
because I love you, Sol.
I love you, too, Charlie.
And I'm sure everything is gonna be okay.
Yeah. I mean, totally. You're not nervous.
- Uh, well, I wasn't nervous, but now I'm a little... - Mom!
My baby.
I know, you're not a baby,
but you're always gonna be my baby, so tough nuggets.
Go on, get out there. Warm up.
- Amanda, hey. This is Sol. - Hi.
Hi. Sol, Amanda.
Finally. Mm. Are you a hugger? Because I'm a hugger, babe.
[grunts]
Oh, I just realized,
I didn't wait for you to respond.
I shouldn't have crossed that boundary without your consent.
I'm sorry.
I'm a hugger, too, so it's completely okay.
Okay, can we do it again, then? 'Cause I cut mine short.
[chuckles] Oh, God.
It is just so great to finally meet you.
I mean, Charlie glows when they talk about you.
And I can totally see why already.
I mean, who knew you could be so chic under those lab coats.
- [chuckles] I mean, this guy's like a walking J.Crew catalog. - [cell phone buzzes]
You know, you say it as an insult,
but all I hear is a compliment.
[Amanda] Oh, dang it.
Lee's dad just bailed again.
He was supposed to bring fruit salad.
That's actually what I brought today.
- Okay, it's official. - [chuckles]
You are a star. Come here.
We're hugging again.
I'm gonna be hugging you all day, I think.
I think we're gonna be hugging all day.
Ooh, you're so tiny.
Little bird bones.
I love it.
Ah, I wish we could share clothes.
She likes you.
This is gonna be the wedding of the century.
We're so hyped.
[Chauncey] So, how I like to start is,
I kind of run through some classics,
just to get a sense of what you like.
It's broad strokes, low presh.
So, I'll click through pretty quickly,
and you just kind of give me a gut instinct.
- [chuckles] - Okay.
Ooh. Willamette River Inn.
- Love the water. - No hotels.
[Chauncy] Portland Rose Room.
Yeah, like a cottagecore vibe.
Oh, my allergies would destroy me.
The Pearl, very modern.
- Dated the bartender. - Max? Me, too.
[both] Did not end well.
So that's out. Fear not.
Happens all the time,
and I've got some useful follow-up questions
that can get us on the same page.
Like, uh, indoor or outdoor?
- Outdoors is so nice. - Indoor, obviously.
Henry, our wedding is in December.
Jorge, our climate is in collapse.
No worries, no problem.
Why don't we just get a little more in-depth? Sasha?

I mean, yeah.
Uh, I started it before you and I... you know.
But friends give each other gifts, right?
- Yeah, right. - [chuckles]
So, I, uh, put a mirror in here.
- Stop. - Thought you might like that.
And, you know, some space for your brushes and products,
- and stuff like that. - Santiago.
Is this because I was always bitching
about not having a mobile makeup station?
See, I did listen sometimes.
Oh! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
[gasps] Oh, this is, like, the best present
I've ever received in my entire life!
Well, I'm glad you like it.
But we should get going.
We owe it to 15-year-old Lily to get you on the road.

Well, if you're dreaming about scallops,

What, you mean, mean like an old crush or-or something?
Uh, no.
No, nothing, nothing like that.
Okay, let's take a look at the future, then.

Your ex-wife called you queer and you hit the brakes so hard
that you sent Sol flying through the metaphorical windshield.
- What's up with that? - [Miles] Ah. Okay, um...
Look, I got to be honest.
[stammers] I get that I messed up,
but I have no idea how.
I fully support Sol's transness, and also,
I'm a straight dude.
We know they give femme realness,
but Sol is nonbinary.
And the last time I checked, that's not news to you.
Right, but what does that have to do with me?
[Melo] Well,
you're loving beyond the binary now, honey.
So if you're that committed to your "straightness,"
it's a very dangerous game, is all.
- "Dangerous"? - [Melo] I know that might
seem like a stretch,
but there are some so-called "straight men" out there
who go from desiring trans femmes
to disappearing them in a heartbeat.
But I would never...
[scoffs] Holy shit.
Does Sol feel unsafe just because I said I was straight?
When you grow up with a target on your back
just for being who you are...
Sol's learned the hard way
that you have to be safe rather than sorry.
So when you completely dismiss
the mere idea that your sexuality might be fluid...
That's where that type of violence stems from, honey.
I never thought about it like that.
[Cyn] Most people don't, but they should.
You should.
I think you and Sol have something special.
So if you truly love them,
you're gonna need to break out of some boxes as well.
