Oh, you slutty? I had my fun, you know, some years ago.
But there comes a point when there's not really a challenge anymore.
I don't know.
These days, I'm looking for something a little more more real.

Sorry, Hollywood magic does have an expiration date, right? Apparently, but, hey, it's no big deal.

I wouldn't really want them to start devising a social media strategy all on their own.
You want me to be on their first date? - Uh-huh.
- Is that a great idea Oh, don't you worry.
Your only job is going to be keeping an eye on them and getting them back on track if they get lost, you know, like a chaperone.

Although, is there a No, we'll wait on that.

One-night stand with celebrities.
My baby's growin' up.
Okay, technically, it was not a one-night stand.
Hey, there is no shame in the walk of shame.
I mean, mine's basically a marathon.
I don't know, I mean, we were there.
We were like right there.
And I wanted to, but I also wanted to wait, and then he wanted to wait.
So it was just like a thing? Yeah, I think it's a thing.

What is that supposed to mean? It means fucking be careful.
Be careful.
Whatever.
I don't I don't need your caution tape.
And what what about your thing with your therapist? Agh, it's not a it's not a thing.
It's not a thing.
She just Shut up.
She just, like, wants to fuckin' talk, like, all the fuckin' time.
And she wants to explore, which is kind of cool actually.
But I don't know why.
Dudes just want to, like, fuck and leave, and that's way better.
It's a lot more fitting with my schedule.
- Just fuck 'em and leave.
- Good morning, colleagues.
[Chuckles.]
Sex hair.
Double sex hair? Oh, my God, talk.
Cassie tangled with her British boy toy.
[Laughs.]
No.
Cass, yes, okay, tell me.
Okay, we went out, we had a very nice time, and that is where that tune ends.
- No.
- And, yes, considering that my last sexual conquest is 10 feet below in chains, I'm very good with waiting.
Well, it sounds like you're making a connection.
Just be careful, you know? - Okay, really? - What? What did you did you sleep here? I have not had time for sleep, you guys.
Do you want to see what I did? You want to see what I did.
Come on.
- Oh.
- Mm-hmm.
Wow.
- This is wow.
- Mm-hmm.
It looks like Etsy took a massive shit on everything.
Okay.
Well, the energy map of this room was all off.
So I brought in some basic elements of environmental design.
You know, proper energy flow is crucial for educational success.
I could send you guys some links.
Uh, here's a possible stupid question.
Where's the boy? [Chuckles.]
[Singsong voice.]
We are ready whenever you are.
I don't want to come out.
He thinks you're gonna laugh at him.
We are not gonna laugh at you.
We're all adults here.
[Sighs.]
Fine.
Okay.
- Oh.
- [Laughs.]
Unh [Laughs.]
- Fucking I knew it.
- No, no, no, no.
He looks great.
Doesn't he, girls? He looks great.
For an AC/DC cover band, sure.
He looks so good.
You look you look really, really great.
I just I have one question for you.
"Please sir, may I have some more?" [Both laugh.]
I think he looks stylish.
You have to dress for success.
And more importantly, I designed it for its mobility.
Owen, show 'em what you can do.
- Do I have to do it now? - Oh, yes.
Oh, my God, please show us what you can do.
Please show us what you can do.
Nobody has to do anything.
Life is about harnessing powers of joy.
- So you really don't have to.
- Okay, if you stop talking, I'll do it.
- Hmm? - He touched his toes.
8 centimeters further than Sunday.
His hamstrings are releasing, people.
- What a magical day.
- I mean, yeah, you might be be able to join the Quidditch team.
He's still not big on hugging.
We're working on it.
I'd actually like to take him to a personal connection seminar.
Oh, but wait, no.
I I I scheduled the morning for, like, basic table manners.
Uh, I mean, I guess we can do some rearranging.
Uh, yeah, actually, now that we're on that, um, - I would like to book out - the foreplay lab.
- Labs are more of a weekend thing.
- Yeah, I know.
I know.
But, like, he could really, - really use the hours.
- And, uh, you know, there's nothin' better than hands-on experience.
Okay.
You know what? You guys just do whatever you want to.
Just make sure it reflects in the schedule.
Yes? - I will make sure it reflects.
- Okay.
[Gasps.]
Oh.
Yes.
I don't know why you bother.
If I never left the house, I wouldn't bother with makeup or a bra.
A woman needs to be a woman.
[Sighs.]
Cassie Bear, what's up with you today? What's the word for, uh, less on the verge of a panic attack than normal? - Klonopin? - Uh [Both sigh.]
I met someone.
Cassie Bear! You buried the lead! Oh, I'm so excited.
We've got to celebrate.
I'm I'm gonna get some wine.
- Mom.
No, it's the morning.
- Some wine.
I'm definitely not drinking with you.
There you are, okay.
Tell me about him.
- Okay.
He's really nice.
- Oh! - And he's funny.
- Ooh.
- Smart, and he's British.
- [Gasps.]
Ooh.
'Ello.
The accent.
Good, where'd you meet? - Uh, we met at work.
- Mm-hmm.
- He's an actor.
- Oh, Christ! See, I knew it.
There's the judgment.
Oh, he's an actor or a writer or one of these video game maker creators.
You would rather me date a guy who runs insurance scams? That's unfair.
Yeah, you can call it unfair all you want to.
All I know is, if my guy went missing, I'd be doing a hell of a lot more than you are to try to find him.
What's to try? Ted's gone.
Lord knows where he is.
I don't know, maybe do some sleuthing.
I mean, if you helped to try to find him, the judge will shorten your sentence, which just means that you get out of here sooner, which means that I will get out of here sooner.
You think that I want to be interrupting your life? You're a young woman, I know.
You don't want to be spending time here with Mom.
I have you go get me things so that I can see anybody.
You get arrested and, mnh, all your friends, they're just very supportive.
Yeah.
Then the indictment comes down and the smart birds, well, they take off before the storm hits.
And, suddenly, you're guilty and you're stuck in a condo.
And, sure, yeah, people are allowed to come here, but nobody ever does.
I know it must be so hard being trapped in a place that you don't want to be.
I don't know.
I don't.
You want to tell me more about your new guy? Not really.
You want to put on makeup until we look like Kardashians? Yeah.
Yeah.
- Yeah, I do.
Real bad.
- Yeah.
Me, too.
So then, like, Vivic, he put me on night tours which is basically just like, ooh, like, point out the junkies.
And, uh, so anyways, I had all these Midwest moms, and I you know, I-I thought that they were cool.
They see a lot of meth heads down in Topeka, you know? They see a lot of those, but anyways, so we we stumble across some tweakers, uh, fucking doggy style What are you doin'? - What? - What are you lookin' at? Y-you were you were talking, and I was listening.
I was telling you about my day and I was, like, fucking open up to you opening up to you and shit.
And you were like staring at another women's tits.
No.
No, no, I wasn't.
I mean I I wasn't, like I wasn't looking, I was like, "Whoa, motion.
" - [Air horn blows.]
- Ow, Jesus Christ! Volume, you guys.
Okay, I'm not I I wasn't I wasn't staring.
I I I was glancing, but I wasn't staring.
- Mnh.
Oh.
- What? I'm not allowed to look at her? - [Air horn blows.]
- Ow! Oh, geez! Oh! Great, now I can't hear.
Awesome.
I am right here.
Hey, hi, hello.
I'm a woman.
I am a woman sitting right in front of you.
And I'm trying to connect with you.
Mnh, and her ass is gyrating five feet away from me.
It's like asking for me to look at it.
- Hey.
Get him up.
- What, wait, what are we doing? [Sighs.]
Apparently your body only exists for Owen's visual pleasures.
And I don't see why the tables can't be turned.
I don't know if this is such a good idea.
Do you remember Julie Tanner's sleepover? Yes, and you hated Julie Tanner.
Yeah, I still do.
I hope she burns in hell.
But if there's a time and place for this, it is most certainly here and now.
I just don't want to participate.
Okay, Lexi, even though he just sees you as a pair of tits on legs.
Ditch the schoolboy suit.
Down to what? Down to the studs, stud.

It kind of feels amazing.
Do you think maybe this guy feels the same way about you? I think he does.
I hope he does.
Yeah.
And I don't know.
