Previously on Georgie &
Mandy's First Marriage
You are not gonna believe this.
That was Channel Nine.
They just offered me a job.
You want me to chase a tornado,
I will chase a tornado.
Short skirt, lot of wind
that'll give us some ratings.
As a woman, I would never ask
you to exploit your sexuality.
- Thank you.
- But if you wanted to,
I'd be very okay with it.
We'll climb back
into the low 70s
- Saturday and Sunday
- Can you believe that's who they replaced me with?
Thanks for watching.
I'm Kelli with an "I,"
and that eye is on your weather.
She kind of looks like you.
No, she doesn't.
I'm Kelli with an "I,"
and that eye is on your weather.
That ain't Mandy.
- I know.
- Oh.
So you're watching
her competition?
Kelli's cute and she wasn't
mean to me as a kid.
Well, still, we should
probably switch to your sister.
Mandy's not gonna know
who we watched.
That's true. It's my house.
I can watch whatever I want.
Hey, y'all.
Hey! Just watching
Mandy do the weather.
And that wraps up
our seven-day forecast.
Stick around for Don
with sports.
I know it's not football
or baseball season,
but there's
probably other sports. Don?
Mr. McAllister,
were you ever a member of
the chamber of commerce?
- No. Why?
- I got an invitation
to a mixer
for prospective members.
Oh. You gonna do it?
Seems like it could be
a good thing for the store.
What's the chamber of commerce?
Oh, i-it's a organization
of-of people
engaged in-in commerce
a-and
And they-they
Well, they get together
in, uh you know
chamber.
So neither of you know.
- Not a clue.
- Nope.
But I will let you know
as soon as I get in.
Careful. This is how people
get sucked into a cult.
Oh, it ain't a cult.
When your mother sold
Tupperware, that was a cult.
"Chamber of commerce."
That sounds important.
Oh, it is. It's a big deal.
Are they the ones that wear
the tiny hats with the tassels?
No, that's the Shriners.
Well, who-who drives all the
little clown cars in the parade?
Also the Shriners.
Oh. Maybe you should join them.
You can fix
all their tiny tires.
I like it.
Be good for business.
You know what they do?
Chamber of commerce?
Yeah, my barber's a member.
He says it's good
for networking.
Wait, you have a barber?
Yeah.
He said the chamber does
a lot of charity stuff,
sponsors community events.
But you're bald.
I'm not totally bald.
I get this shaved.
Why don't you shave it yourself?
You want to hear about
the chamber of commerce or not?
Sorry. Go ahead.
Could help us get
some new clients.
We'd be in their directory.
We'd get a plaque to put
Hey, my eyes are down here.
So what do you say
we go to this mixer,
do a little schmoozin'?
Hmm. I don't see the downside.
Great. Last question
About the chamber of commerce
or my head?
Never mind.
There's the lady
who owns the pet store.
And that's the guy
who runs the barbecue place
with the awesome chili.
Oh. I love that chili.
He uses brisket
instead of ground beef
- and
- Hey, hey, hey, hey. Don't get starstruck.
Gentlemen. Jerry Clemons,
Clemons Hardware.
Glad y'all came.
Georgie Cooper.
Ruben Alvarez.
We took over McAllister Auto.
Oh. Jim McAllister's old place.
I did hear
that was under new management.
Newer, younger, better.
Just what people are saying.
Any questions?
A lot of people
don't actually know
what we do here.
You're kidding.
Networking, charity,
community outreach
seems pretty obvious.
It did to me.
So, Jerry, what do we got
to do to join?
Pretty simple. Just introduce
yourselves around,
talk to the members.
If you want to be involved,
- we're happy to have you.
- Great.
Usually meet the first Wednesday
of every month.
That'll work. I mean,
I've got a small child at home,
but my partner here's
got nothing going on.
I got plenty going on.
Like what?
You don't know
everything about me.
Let's not argue
in front of Jerry. Okay?
All right, fellas.
We'll talk later.
Why do you put me down
in front of other people?
- I wasn't putting you down.
- Yes, you were.
Hey, how about after this,
I take you out
for some of that chili?
That'd be nice. Thank you.
So me and Ruben raised the money
from friends and family
and we bought the place.
Impressive.
You don't look much older
than my son.
- I'm 21.
- 21.
That would make you
our youngest member.
I'd probably be your first
Puerto Rican member.
That's my background.
A real-life
immigrant success story.
Oh. Where were you born?
Here.
Well, it'd be great to have
some fresh faces join us.
Don't get any fresher than this.
Or this.
Believe it or not,
he got a haircut for y'all.
What did we just talk about?
Jim, do you want to go
to the nursery with me tomorrow?
I want to replant those azaleas.
You sure? Weather forecast
said it looks like rain.
Aw. Sounds like
somebody watched me.
It sure does.
- - Hey.
- Hey.
How was the mixer?
Great. You're looking at
the youngest member ever
of the Medford Chamber of Commerce.
Wow. Congratulations.
Before I got there,
the youngest one was, like, 32.
Oh.
That's the same age as
Watch it.
32 ain't old.
Everyone else there
was, like, in their 50s.
Watch it.
Well, good for you, Georgie.
They loved me.
One lady pinched my cheek
and called me plucky.
Careful.
He does like older women.
Anyways, it got me thinking
maybe there's a news story here.
You mean you?
It's pretty inspirational
when you think about it.
Oh, honey,
I'm really proud of you,
but I'm trying to do
more edgy stories.
Didn't you just do one about
a dog with wheels for hind legs?
Yeah. He bit a kid
and rolled away.
Edgy.
I'm just saying,
it's a great story
a high school dropout
making good.
Please don't go on TV
and tell people
you're a high school dropout.
I ain't ashamed.
No, you really ain't.
Mandy said I wasn't newsworthy.
But on that Doogie Howser show,
folks loved
that he was the youngest guy
in his profession.
I never watched that show.
He was a doctor and a teenager.
He lost his first patient and
his virginity on the same day.
Do you have a point?
Being young is a good story.
Newspeople did all kinds
of stuff about Sheldon
when he was a kid.
He was a science genius.
And I'm a tire genius!
Mandy's not
the only news lady in town.
There's that Kelli girl
on Channel Seven.
I can't call her.
She's Mandy's competition.
I guess.
But if you called her
Mandy'd be mad at me.
Not just a tire genius.
- Hey. How was work?
- Good.
Look, just so you know,
I'm really sorry
I couldn't help you out.
It's okay. And just so you know,
Channel Seven thinks
I am a story.
- Excuse me?
- Yeah. That Kelli girl said
it's perfect for her.
I'm sorry, Kelli?
Yeah. You know, with an "I."
Oh, I know Kelli with an "I."
I hate Kelli with an "I."
How does she know about you?
Did you call her?
No, ma'am. I most certainly
did not call her.
So Ruben called her.
Dang, you do have
a nose for the news.
God, what the hell, Georgie?
How would you feel if
I bought tires from Fagenbacher?
I'd feel like you're throwing
your money away
'cause you get
a family discount with me.
That is not the point!
She's just trying
to embarrass me.
I came to you first.
You said no.
You are not doing
that interview.
You can't stop me.
You know what?
You're right.
You do whatever you want.
It's your decision.
Okay, she may have stopped me.
Mandy would do whatever
she wanted if she thought
it was good for her career.
Would, has, will again.
So she can't be mad
if I do the interview?
Can, will, gonna be.
See, stuff like this is
the reason why I'm not married.
No. The reason
you're not married
is no one wants to marry you.
So what should I do?
Well, before I fight
with Audrey,
I always ask myself,
is it worth it?
I've heard you fight
about pillows on the bed.
There's too many.
Throw pillows, shams
I don't know what's going on.
Well, a news story
is free advertising,
so, yeah, it's worth it.
And for your information,
there were two girls
- who wanted to marry me.
- What happened?
They found out about each other.
If this front continues,
we can expect rain all weekend.
I would be the father
of her children.
This is normally the time when
I do my "Eye on Medford" segment
where we focus on folks
in the community,
but unfortunately we had
a last-minute cancellation.
Apparently, our guest is married
to the weather girl
on our rival station
and she told him
he wasn't allowed to do it.
I don't want to name names,
but she's on Channel Nine.
Oh, no.
Oh, no?
How about "Oh, baby"?
What the hell, Georgie?!
You told Kelli
I wouldn't let you do it?
You wouldn't let me do it.
Well, she didn't need
to know that.
I didn't know
she was gonna blab it on TV.
Do you know
how this makes me look?
I do, but now does not seem
like the time to say it.
You could've said you were sick
or busy or anything else.
All I did was tell the truth.
Can you give us some privacy?
I've heard y'all fight before.
It's fine.
- Dad
- Well, I'm hungry.
This is where the food is.
You didn't want me
to do the interview.
I didn't do it. You're welcome.
She embarrassed me
on television.
Nah, she didn't even say
your name.
So you watched her?
I probably snack too much.
You wanted to see me?
Close the door.
So I-I guess you saw
what Kelli said.
Sure did.
Well, I just want you to know
that I will rise above this.
Unlike her,
I can behave
in a professional manner.
Why on earth would you do that?
Wait, what?
This is ratings gold. Hit back.
Get down in the mud
and roll around with that skank.
Uh, but if I say something,
won't she
just swing back harder?
Do you not know how feuds work?
No, I mean, of course I do.
- I made a lot of girls cry in my heyday.
- Hmm.
Girls who look like you
always do.
Thank you.
That storm front petered out.
Looks like
it'll be a beautiful weekend
for folks
to catch up on some gardening.
So get out there
with a watering can, a rake,
and, like that bimbo who does
the weather for Channel Seven,
a hoe.
I raised her better than this.
If it helps, you knocked it out
of the park with me.
So, Kelli with an "I,"
I'll make a deal with you
you don't talk about my marriage
and I won't talk
about your nose job.
For Channel Nine News,
I'm Mandy McAllister.
And this
is my real nose.
Pretty mean.
You know what they say
do what you love,
never work a day in your life.
When we went to commercial,
the whole crew applauded.
Good for you.
You know, after all that
trash talk I did in high school,
it is nice to know
I still got it.
Ain't you worried
that Kelli's gonna swing back?
Oh, let her.
I found the yearbook picture
with her old nose.
You could've vacuumed
the floor with that thing.
Man, I'm glad I didn't know you
in high school.
Yeah, with that accent,
I would've torn you apart.
You know, this is good
for Kelli, too.
It's like Nancy Kerrigan
and Tonya Harding.
I mean, nobody cared
about ice-skating
until those two started
going at each other.
Didn't one of 'em break
the other one's kneecap?
Yeah. And we're
still talking about it.
Check it out.
We're official.
Nice.
We're not really going
to those meetings, are we?
Nah. We got the plaque
hanging up. We're good.
Hey, welcome to McAllister
Oh.
I was hoping we could talk.
Wow. You're even prettier
in person.
I have a boyfriend.
Could have two.
Look, I-I know you and my wife
are having a thing,
but I don't want
to be a part of it.
I understand.
I come in peace.
Okay. So
I know I fired the first shot.
I was angry
you canceled last-minute.
I told him not to.
Does he listen to me?
- Dude.
- I did.
Don't you have work to do?
Fine, but we're talking
about this later.
Look, I would really just like
this to be over.
Why ain't you saying this
to Mandy?
Honestly, she's a little scary.
I heard she punched
a woman in church.
Oh. That.
So it's true?
Yeah. But it's Texas.
I've been punched in church.
Doesn't matter.
I just worry she and I are
setting a bad example.
Women shouldn't be tearing
each other down.
We should be lifting
each other up.
Amen, sister.
Did you watch Kelli?
No, Georgie made us watch you.
Don't worry. We taped it.
Oh, good. Put her on.
I want to see
what she said about me.
Maybe she found out
you wore a helmet as a baby.
You did?
It's not her fault
her head was pointy.
I had a petite pelvis.
Before I get to
tonight's weather,
I'd like to address
some of the comments
made about me by my competitor.
I don't want
to personally attack other women
to advance my career.
But then, I guess,
as the number one
weather personality in Medford,
I don't have to.
No one tape over this.
Besides, I wouldn't want
to pick a fight with someone
who once punched
a woman in church.
How does she know that?
Did you tell her?
Sorta. She tricked me.
Wait, you punched someone
in church?
She deserved it.
She was kissing Georgie.
Wh-Why were you kissing someone?
She kissed me!
Wait, Kelli didn't kiss you,
did she?
No.
That's too bad.
I could've used that.
What is happening
to this family?
You know what,
I'll just say she did.
Who's gonna know?
Hello.
Oh. Hi.
Don't worry.
I'm not here to start anything.
At least not until I've had
my coffee.
So
what do you want?
Well, I just saw you here
and I thought maybe I'd say hey.
It's a lot harder to be mean
to somebody that you know.
Is it?
I don't know.
It's a thing people say.
And just so you know,
I was never actually gonna show
any pictures of your old nose.
Really? 'Cause someone mailed in
baby pictures of you
in a helmet.
Wow.
Maybe we are setting
a bad example.
Should we call a truce?
Yeah, I guess.
It was kind of fun, though.
And the weather is so boring.
It's rainy, it's sunny, ugh.
And being catty really brought
me back to high school.
Me, too.
It's like riding a bike,
isn't it?
You know,
it doesn't have to end.
It has been good for ratings.
Mm-hmm. I mean, maybe we should
give the people what they want.
So we'll keep it going?
Done.
We probably shouldn't be seen
- hanging out like this.
- Oh.
I can fix that.
I came here to bury the hatchet
and you insult my baby daughter?
- What?!
- That's low.
You mention my kid again
and you're gonna need
another nose job.
I hear you and Kelli got
in a fight at a coffee shop.
Yeah. But don't worry I won.
Oh, honey, you got to save
that stuff for on-air.
Quit giving away the milk.
We got a cow to sell.
Right. L-Look, I-I have been
digging up some dirt.
I got some pretty juicy leads.
Lay it on me.
Uh, she takes ballet,
so I think I can call her
an exotic dancer
without getting sued.
That's messed up.
I like it.
- What else you got?
- Okay,
her mother is in
a women's prison in Arkansas.
- You're kidding.
- Well, it's assisted living,
but there are locks
on the door, so
Great. And just so we know,
is there anything she can dig up
on you that's damning?
Hmm. Um
You're working for a guy
you used to sleep with.
- What's all this stuff?
- They're counterfeits.
We're selling 'em for a bundle
to desperate mothers.
I'm not handling any money.
I just take bets for her
when Dale's home.
That's still illegal.
Clean as a whistle.
