| Grace and Nick return from their trip to the Maldives rejuvenated, but Grace is alarmed to find that Frankie has pulled everything together and that Vybrant is doing just fine without her. Desperate for something to fix, Grace offers to help Frankie with her chores for Bud and Alison's wedding, but it turns out that there's a method to Frankie's madness there as well. In spite of Grace's meddling, the wedding goes well: Mallory brings a new date, Alison's mother finally stands up for herself, and everyone enjoys Sol's surprise gift for Robert. Grace and Frankie have a fight that might prove the last straw for both of them. | ||||||

| In the wake of their fight in the previous episode, Grace and Frankie separately yet simultaneously imagine what their lives would have been like had they not moved in together after the events of three years before. Frankie, having suffered not one but three strokes, would still be living with newlyweds Robert and Sol - who are secretly planning on moving to a new home without her. Grace would be coming to town with her harmless and vacuous second husband Jack Patterson (George Hamilton) after extensive cosmetic facial surgery (her new face and lips like "Carly Simon") for Brianna’s 40th birthday. After the party completely falls apart, Grace and Frankie argue about a samovar that is now their friend Babe’s urn, as well as Grace’s inability to go to her funeral because she couldn’t face Robert. The ladies would realize that Babe left the samovar to both of them because she knew how much they meant to each other. This provides the reality check Grace and Frankie need; they make amends and vow their friendship to each other. Frankie is overjoyed and ready to go back to their beach house ... and then Grace sheepishly tells her that she had married Nick the night before. | ||||||
