Ep 22. Rome, if You Want To

My Boys season 1 episode 22, Rome, if You Want To, follows PJ and her crew as they embark on an adventurous trip to Rome, Italy. As the episode starts, PJ is already in Rome, and we see her exploring the beautiful city with her new Italian friend, Leo. PJ is visiting Rome as a part of her job, and she plans on making the most of her trip by experiencing everything the ancient city has to offer.

PJ’s trip to Rome coincides with the arrival of the rest of her crew, who have come to Rome to attend Bobby's wedding. Bobby is marrying his girlfriend, Vanessa, who he met on his trip to Rome a year ago. Bobby's wedding serves as a reminder for PJ to evaluate her own love life. This is apparent when PJ reveals to Leo that she hasn’t been in a serious relationship for over a year, and how it worries her that every time she meets someone, she compares them to her best friend, Bobby.

PJ’s roommates, Brendan, Kenny, and Mike, also land in Rome, and they waste no time in exploring the city. They indulge in sumptuous Italian cuisine, sightseeing, and even get their portrait painted by a street painter. However, their primary focus is to make sure that Bobby’s wedding celebrations are perfect. Mike takes on the task of videotaping the wedding, Brendan helps with the decorations, while Kenny helps keep everything on schedule.

As the wedding day approaches, PJ finds herself getting more nervous about walking down the aisle than Bobby. The pressure of being in Rome, watching her best friend finally get married, starts weighing heavily on her. While we see PJ struggling with her emotions, Mike has his own set of problems as he manages to accidentally erase the entire videotape of the wedding.

Once the wedding concludes, the group decides to unwind and have a good time. They visit a club where they meet a fellow American named Lydia, who sets her sights on Mike. Things begin to get out of hand as Lydia drags Mike to her hotel room. In addition, Kenny seems to be having a bit of trouble managing his nerves around Bobby's cousin, Kelly.

The episode ends with Bobby and Vanessa preparing to leave for their honeymoon, but not before Bobby has a heartwarming moment with PJ. He assures her that no matter what happens, she will always remain his best friend. The entire group reflects on their trip to Rome, realizing that even though it was filled with highs and lows, they will never forget the memories they made together.
