CAL FIRE Pilot Revised Network Draft 1.22.22

12.

JAKE Don’t stay here for me. ARABELLA Seriously? JAKE What? ARABELLA I tell you ‘I love you’ and that’s how you respond? JAKE No, I ... wait -- EVERLY (O.S.) Can I have everyone’s attention! They turn and see Everly standing on the bar, Maya nearby. EVERLY (CONT'D)

Today is my two-year anniversary with Maya. You may know her as your friend or your boss or the vegetarian from San Francisco who tried to take chicken wings off the menu. But I know her as the person who taught me what love means. Who healed me after some pretty tough

years. And today ... she’s the person who thinks I forgot our anniversary. I didn’t forget. Everly pulls a ring out of pocket. Maya’s eyes get big. MAYA What are you ... Oh my God ... Everly pulls Maya on top of the bar with her. EVERLY

I wanted to wait until we got home tonight and do this in private but why wait? Why wait another year? Another month? Another day or minute to ask you to spend the rest of your life with me? Maya, will you marry me? MAYA (through tears) Yes. Yes. Of course. Yes.
