[people talking indistinctly]

- Do you know what I mean?

- I know.

[Clarissa]

You guys started without me?

[shrieking]

[Kelly] Oh, my gosh!

Oh, my gosh!

If it isn't Clarissa Byers, our

fancy old friend from Hollywood.

This color is so in right now.

Let's Instapic the moment.

And I heard you're doing a

movie with Chas Hunter?

- Well...

- Okay, you have to tell us all about it!

Like, is he as hot as he is in person?

Or is he, like, tall?

Or is he kind of, like, short?

What is he like, you know?

The maid of honor

has finally arrived.

[Kelly clearing throat]

I mean, my co-maid of honor.

Clarissa, you know

I'm only teasing.

When you're here, I want you

to do everything you can.

And when you're not,

I just want to help out.

Thanks, Kelly.

I mean, that's really sweet of you

to help, when I'm stuck in LA.

- Champagne.

- Champagne.

Hey.

And I didn't tell anybody

you got fired.

- Thank you.

- You're welcome.

- [indistinct]

- Me, too.

And how is Los Angeles, dear?

It's good, you know. Just

going on a lot of auditions.

Okay, so, is Chas Hunter, like,

really tall or just kind of tall?

Um... No. Today is

all about Maya.

Right! Guys, shower me

with attention.

Right, right. Totally right.

We will revisit

this convo, believe.

Okay, I want to open my gifts.

And I hope you guys didn't get me anything

naughty, because my mother is here.

She's just worried

I may steal it.

Grandpa!

Clarissa? Is that you?

Losing your eyesight already?

So sad.

No, no. I just didn't recognize you

with all that... Hollywood Botox.

No Botox.

- Then why do you look like that?

- Come here, jerk.

Old man jerk.

Good to see you, Pete. Congrats.

Thank you. And thank

you for being here.

I know it means

the world to Maya.

Are all the hens outside still?

Yup, just picking up some wine.

Let's get this party started.

Excuse me. Since when does the

groom join the bridal shower?

Since the groom's poker

party ended two hours ago.

Aw, lost all your

Monopoly money already?

I don't get that game.

Mr. Pete.

Graham?

Wow. I didn't even

recognize you!

Howdy, Clarissa?

Missed you.

You look great!

I mean, how much...

- You look...

- You can ask. It's okay.

How much weight did you lose?

Fifty-eight pounds.

Yeah, give or take a few, you know,

depending on what shoes I'm wearing,

or how much I ate that day.

That's crazy.

I mean, I just saw you last

year, after grad school.

When did this happen?

So, after that

I took spring break off,

hired a personal trainer,

and focused on the body.

And now?

Now, I'm a project manager

at a tech firm near the beach.

That is amazing. Congrats. But I

thought you'd move back here.
