Don't worry. l have everything under control.

You did that on purpose. Knock it off.

l have always dreamed of living here.

You know it's not about luck. It's about preparation.

l like us. Don't you like us?

You know l don't like surprises.

l wanted to tell you something.

You're gonna have an engagement ring!

Okay, hold on, we gotta work on your surprise face!

Okay, ask me.

What? Are you scared? That was awful. Try it again.

The good news is, you have time to practice between now and then.

You're gonna be married?

Boom! Ring on finger, signed, sealed, delivered.

I'm just happy that we want the same things.

You know you can propose on Leap day?

I'm going to propose to my partner on leap day.

It's not like I'm rushing anything by doing this, you know..

Earrings don't exactly say commitment!

I'm not gonna die without getting engaged!

l need to buy clothes and find a ring and book a restaurant..

It's bad luck to start a journey on a Friday.

I'll just find somebody to drive me in the morning.

l wanted to surprise you, but it's turned into a complete disaster.

l can't wait to see you.

Well, when will you get here?

Come on, then, let's do it. But only 'cause you're desperate.

You've made that very clear, so l won't inconvenience you.

A simple yes or no will do.

Please tell me that that is the car that is taking us around the corner to the actual taxi.

Can you be careful with that? That was a gift from my partner!

You can't start a journey when you see a black cat.

No, it's not a cat, it's a magpie.

l tell you something, they'll kill each other!

It's only February 27th. l still have two days to get there, so…

lf you must know, I'm going there to propose to my partner.

l actually thought [he/she/they] was going to propose to me the other night, but didn't...

That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard!

No, it's a tradition. It's a romantic tradition!

You've got to know that if your partner wanted to propose, [he/she/they] would have done it already. Fact!

Are you crazy? You know nothing about me or [name]!

You're a lonely, bitter cynic.

What are you, the Lucky Charms Leprechaun?

I'm not paying you to talk, I'm not paying for your opinion.

Why don't you propose something to them?

Us? There is no us.

Must be something special, your person.

Wait! l love castles! It's beautiful.

That's just so typical of you.

l can think of a couple of good words for you.

Riddle me this. lf your apartment's on fire, your beautiful apartment, what would you take?

I'm not playing this game with you.

l know exactly what I'd ''grab.'' Not telling you.

So what's the story with this place?

They fell madly in love at first sight, but what could they do?

Oh, my God. You're hitting on me.

You didn't honestly think that was gonna work, did you?

Don't flatter yourself, darling. The story's true, but it sure as shit isn't about you.

You just had to take me up there, didn't you?

We're not long married, and it's still quite a mouthful.

Well, you're not sleeping in that bed with me.

Maybe you're not sleeping in the bed with me.

We'll flip for it, darling. Heads l win, tails you lose.

Shame. You can sleep in the bath.

Fine. Just so long as l don't have to sleep anywhere near you.

Up! Get up! This is my bed. Liars forfeit.

You can see right through the curtain... Hm...

Yum. Did you hear that, darling? Tripe!

This recipe says three medium carrots, and l just think this one is a little large to be classified as medium.

Why don't you stop trying to control everything in the known universe?

But don't worry. It'll all work out.

So this is what you call staging, is it?

The kiss. Always kiss like it's the first time and the last time.

No, we're fine. We did it earlier, kiss. Right?

lf that was a kiss, I'm surprised you're still wed to [him/her/them] at all.

No, no, we're just shy, that's all....

Show a little mercy, would you?

One snore and you're back in the shower.

Everything is working out for us. I'm so excited.

Oh, well, l don't believe in that superstition stuff.

l kind of hate weddings.

Why? Because people are in love? That's so offensive to you?

If you must cheat, then please cheat death, because l couldn't live a day without you.

You know, it's just hot in there.

It's really, really romantic.

You're a beast. And l cannot stand you. But you know what? I'm onto you.

So that thing I'd grab if l had 60 seconds, it's my mother's ring.

Would it make a difference?

Oh, God, l missed you! And it got me thinking. Why aren't we married?

Am l serious? Yeah. Well, I'm down on my knee...

Were you supposed to give me an answer?

l feel like your whole happy ending is gonna be a real test for our friendship.

Really? What, buy an apartment, they throw in a ring?

Could you maybe be nice for just a second?

When my 60 seconds came around, l realized l had everything l ever wanted but nothing l really needed.

l think that what l need is here...

And l came all this way to see if maybe you might think so, too.

l propose we not make plans. l propose we give this thing a chance and let it work out how it works out.

l didn't say no. l didn't say anything. l was getting something.

l wouldn't be holding this ring if it weren't for you.

In all my life, l never thought I'd see you down on one knee.

I'm so relieved. For a minute there, l thought l wasn't gonna have a place to stay tonight.
