Very, very good care.
David is someone who has always not considered sex to be a big deal, Levy told EW.
It was always just something that happened.
It was love that was a big deal.
It was the relationships that were a big deal.
Those were the things that were hurting him not the sex.
David has always been an incredibly open and easy person when it comes to sex and sexuality.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: Let’s talk about the title of this episode: Happy Ending.
DAN LEVY:Well, the title has multiple meanings.
I think first and foremost, it is what everyone wants for this family.
I think it’s what everyone wants for the show.
It would be really sad and disappointing if we didn’t give a happy ending.
And ultimately the conversation ended with, no, it doesn’t.
It’s always been around, and it hasn’t necessarily defined who they are as people.
It’s founded on something much deeper, much more substantial, much more respectful.
And ultimately, David just thought that Patrick had wanted him to relax, so he accepted.
And you did give him an envelope of cash and said, “Treat him well.”
And it was clearly a miscommunication.
REID:Oh yeah.
LEVY:On their wedding day.
But David agreed to the location, so we got some negotiation out of it.
REID:Some great problem solving, actually.
That, to me, feels very, very them.
Which of the things that goes wrong after the massage is the biggest wrench in the plan?
Alexis wearing a wedding dress?
LEVY:That was something that I knew from the very beginning.
And just the principle of David saying like, “It’s not your day.
Why are you wearing a white dress?”
And her just denying the fact that it was a wedding gown.
REID:And it almost doesn’t even occur to her.
Well, there’s a huge tulle bow on the end, and it did come with a headdress.
She calls it a headdress, not a veil.
But I would go with probably the rain was the biggest wrench.
REID:Major wrench.
And the fact that we didn’t get a tent.
It’s kind of lovely that way.
Ends up being more meaningful, somehow.
