The story so far
Everything you need before watchingOliver marries in four days, and the new house has barely sunk in. He needs Norman, his best man, at his best. Norman ticks tuxedo, ring, license—then stalls on a gift for the bride. Pearls, something that lasts forever, maybe to a fiftieth anniversary. Then Oliver looks at Rita: the perfect place for two. Or three? She took the test. She is not pregnant. Watch them fold another disappointment into a motto: trust the timing.
