BRAN'S THE GROOMSMEN: LAST DANCE SYNOPSIS

The movie kicks off at the initial wedding, where Jackson is dancing with his daughter, Betty, when she drops a bomb—she’s moving to Italy with her mom. Jackson is devastated. He runs a firm representing social media influencers, including a guy who just eats soup. One day, he gets a call from his ex asking if Betty can stay with him for a while. Jackson comes up with a better idea: “I’ll come to you!”

He heads to Italy in a red convertible—because why not? He nearly hits a woman named Gabriella, and though he thinks he’ll never see her again, fate has other plans. Gabriella runs a café that doesn’t serve cappuccinos in the afternoon, so they keep bumping into each other. Friction turns into sexual tension, and Jackson even builds her a new website. But he insists, “Nothing is going to happen between us,” hesitant to love again after his divorce.

When his sons visit, they encourage him to go to a masked dance. Hesitant at first, he ends up dancing with a masked stranger—and it’s hot, hot, hot. He even dips her! But he leaves before discovering her identity.

The next day at the café, Gabriella slips, and Jackson catches her—dip style—realizing it was the same woman from the dance. They talk it out, and she admits she didn’t realize it was him. Later, while walking with Betty, she points out that Jackson is afraid of dating and that it’s not fair to either of them.

Gabriella brings over some lasagna, and Jackson offers to drive her home. When the car breaks down, they walk back together through the city. He opens up about his past, and she admits she knew it was him at the dance all along. Just as they’re about to kiss, a sprinkler goes off—because, apparently, wet kisses are forbidden.

Jackson joins Gabriella for dinner at her father’s house and initially doubts their relationship can work. She reminds him, “We’ll always have that dance.” Realizing he’s been foolish, Jackson decides to stay—and they finally kiss.

The story cuts back to Betty, the narrator. Milo shows up and confesses he’s loved her since they were kids. They get married, everyone gives endless speeches, and then they all dance. Finally, the groomsmen perform their special dance again.
