or something.

No, no, no, you

handle this, honey.

Michael's got to go freshen up.

You have a clean shirt?

Company's already sitting down.

- [Michael] Company?

- [Mom] Yeah.

Hi, sweetie.

- Do you remember me?

- Ana.

- Yeah. Hi.

- Yeah. Hi.

Oh, my goodness.

Ele, he's grown up

so handsome.

Isn't he, though?

Look at that face.

Hi.

Oh, get over here.

This is my daughter, Samira.

Michael, say hello.

- Hi.

- Hi.

So Ana's your mom?

You're her daughter?

Yeah.

- Happy Thanksgiving.

- Happy Thanksgiving.

[laughter]

You know, she went

to Casitas High.

You guys could've met in

marching band, for all you know.

Wow. Huh.

[Michael imitates trumpet]

You look great.

All right, who's thirsty?

I got a Chateau La Gaffeliere

Saint-Emilion 2010.

Michael, you know the bottle.

No, no, no,

he's driven for hours.

Michael, go upstairs and wash

that road trip off of you.

I don't need to shower.

Well, at least change

your shirt.

Why? It's just gonna

get covered in crap.

Michael, just look nice.

Change your shirt.

Don't bust my ass.

[Donna]

Spending time with Michael...

what's going on there?

I-I don't know.

I mean, it's confusing

being in his energy,

you know, but...

It's crazy, Mom.

I'm more myself with him

than I am with anyone else.

You know, honey,

I think you two

just need to go to therapy

and work these things out.

Mom...

Well, you two were talking

marriage at one point.

There's clearly something there.

He's not going

to therapy with me.

Well, exes go to therapy.

I think he wants this to work.

Why else would he offer

to drive you up?

He just wanted to see if you

were in a different place,

which you are.

You've got a career,

your own place.

You want it to work?

Yeah.

But...

Dais...

there will always be a "but."

You just got to shut

the "but" up.

[chuckles]

[gasps]

You look so sharp.

What is going on here?

Oh, don't be so angry.

I was gonna tell you,

but you were late.

You should've told me

what I'm stepping into.

What are you stepping into?

An arranged marriage!

[laughs] Don't be so dramatic.

It's just dinner.

I mean, they're

practically family anyway.

Oh, honey.

It's been almost five months

since you and Daisy

broke things off,

and I've barely heard

a peep out of you since.

And I know you must've been

so lonely down in LA, but...

I just didn't know what to do.

And maybe it was pushy, maybe

you weren't ready, I get it,

but I'm not forcing anything

here anymore, I promise.

I mean,

Ana's daughter's in town,

so she came, that's all.

You don't have to be

ready for anything.

- What did you tell her mother?

- I told her you were ready.

- Mom!
