Celebrate...

After Chloe and Jimmy's engagement...
Chloe: It's a shame your parent couldn't be here. I would have really loved to celebrate
your impeccable taste
(to share his taste for the evening?) with them.
Jimmy: Well, they send their love. Dad is this close to closing
a big deal in London. His, um, priorities are a little
out of whack, but he means well. He has no bad feelings for them?

Chloe: You know what was my favorite
part of the evening?
Jimmy: If you say Lois' toast, I'm getting a prenup. He'll leave her?

She's making a joke...his "impeccable taste" is that he's marrying her.

out of whack, but he means well. He has no bad feelings
