Lipstick Jungle (2008) s02e11 Episode Script

Chapter Eighteen: Indecent Exposure

Previously on Lipstick Jungle What's going on with you and Joe? He gave me back my business as a gift, parting gift.
Look, I love owning my business outright, but now that Joe and his safety net are gone It's just, if I got a deal like this, it would be a little bit easier to breathe.
You apply to be Charlie's foster parent.
And, then, you would have to make every effort to find the mother, or any immediate family, before they'd even consider making anything permanent.
We're Megan's parents.
We're gonna take Megan and the baby back home to Indiana with us.
I'm a lot better, when I'm working.
You may not want to hear this, but I like our arrangement, now, with you at home.
Well, then, we need to have a bigger conversation because I'm not looking to be a stay-at-home anything.
Kirby isn't ready.
I mean, not even close, and what if, when he is ready, I can't? And, so, if I freeze some eggs Are you considering doing that? I think I might.
What happened? They came.
They saw.
I conquered.
You got the deal? I got the deal.
It's over.
Kirby and I are done.
These are our two choices for the ad.
A or B.
Ready? Yes.
Wait.
On three, or after three? After three.
Okay.
One, two, three.
B.
Yay! All right, promise me, though, that you'll be slightly more professional at your marketing meeting.
Why? You don't want me to bring my Hello Kitty lunchbox? Oh, Vic, these ads are great.
Oh, it's sexy.
It's lush.
Makes me want to run home, rip my clothes off and get right back into bed.
Shane would love that.
Who? Oh, him.
Well, I don't think he notices what I wear to bed these days.
Or if I'm even there.
Well, what's going on? Things still tense? I don't know.
Oh, he just won't let it go.
He obviously does not want me to work.
Since when did Shane become a caveman? He's not a caveman.
It's just Well, we're just getting through a transition period.
It'll work out.
Hey, but you've got to go to your meeting or you're gonna be late.
Oh! Yeah, I should probably go.
Wish me luck! Luck! Luck! Luck! Bye.
Yes.
Thanks for your help.
You look beautiful.
You'll do great.
All right, it's my turn next.
Hello, dungeon people.
I come bearing gifts, and by gifts, I mean bagels and my new best friend.
Hey, Josie, how are you doing? Do you want to take 10, mate? Cool.
I'm gonna grab a smoke.
Sure.
Sure.
Sure.
Sure.
This is Shane Healy.
Shane, this is Natasha Bedingfield.
Yes, absolutely.
Nice to meet you.
Likewise.
Yeah, I'm a huge fan.
Thanks.
What? Are you working next door? No.
Josie kidnapped me.
She wanted us to meet in person and by the way, the fan club is mutual.
Oh? Oh, come on.
So, Natasha is going out on tour and she would like you to join the band.
Me? That's right.
My keyboard player is taking some time off.
Josie played me your demo and I think it's brilliant.
Wow.
Mmm-hmm.
Okay.
All right.
Grasp the syringe like a pencil.
Aren't there many different ways to hold a pencil? Some people use their index finger.
I don't even get mine involved, actually, unless I'm using chopsticks.
I should've asked the doorman.
I got it, okay? All right, inject with a dart-like motion.
Okay, what if you don't shoot darts? Wen, I asked you to do this because you're a mom and I thought you'd be okay with it and that you wouldn't be squeamish.
Are you gonna be okay with this? Yes, Nico.
Okay.
But, you know, I usually put thermometers under my kids' tongues.
I don't inject them with fertility drugs.
Okay, how about this? How'd that look? Encouraging.
You are going to open your eyes when you do it for real, right? I can do this.
This is not funny.
I can do it, okay? All right? But if you will feel more comfortable, there's a cat hospital down the block.
Am I crazy to be going through all this when I'm not even sure I should be having a kid right now? It's not about right now, Nico.
Okay? You're not crazy.
Freezing your eggs just gives you the option.
Think of it as an insurance policy.
All right? All right, you're right.
What's next? Okay.
All righty.
Now, show me the upper, outer quadrant of your buttock.
Talk about words I never thought I'd hear you say.
Come on.
Okay.
Come on.
Come on.
Back it on up, sister.
I absolutely love it.
Oh, I'm so glad.
The Baron brothers do, too.
And of course, it's my favorite.
But we wanted you to have options.
Well, we don't need options.
Where are we gonna run this ad? We thought we'd concentrate our ad buys in the high-end trades and we want to branch out internationally.
Have you heard of Pascal Dangin? We want to bring him aboard.
In New York.
I'm sorry.
What? I asked if you'd heard of Pascal Dangin.
Oh! No.
No, no.
He's a terrific air-brusher, best in the city.
Sorry.
Oh, man.
Can you excuse me for just a second? Yeah.
Hello, Joe.
Hello.
Didn't expect to see you here.
Well, they're doing renovation in my place.
So I've taken a room, till the scaffolding's down.
Stuart Raines, Victory Ford.
Victory and I used to do a little business together.
Nice to meet you.
Yeah, you, too.
So, how are you? Good.
Yeah.
Yourself? Great.
Good.
I just started a home furnishing line.
It's bed linens, curtains, washcloths.
Well, we're debating washcloths.
Well, it sounds like things are going well.
Yeah, yeah.
Listen, if you get some time, obviously not now, I'd love to talk to you.
Sure.
Why don't you call Ellen? She'll set something up.
Take care, Victory.
Yeah.
You, too.
Nice to meet you, Stuart.
My pleasure.
Hi, sorry.
I apologize for that.
No, no.
It was good.
It was good.
It gave me a chance to catch up with an old colleague.
So this ad, are we thinking of using a model or a celebrity? For what? For the woman in the bed.
If you think that using a celebrity would be too distracting Oh, I'm sorry.
Was this not clear? Was what not clear? In the actual campaign, the model would be you, Victory.
Me? As the naked lady in the bed? Nude.
Me.
I mean, why would I do that? Why would I objectify myself just to sell bed linens? To sell bed linens.
To tie your image to your brand.
I mean, look at Martha Stewart.
She's very smart.
She put herself all over there.
Not naked.
Well, we never saw the prison calendar.
Am I the only one at this table who thinks this is blatant exploitation? You didn't think it was exploitation when it was somebody else on those sheets.
Well, I don't know that somebody else.
Maybe her parents are dead.
Maybe she doesn't have a Girl Scout medal that can be taken away from her.
Victory, you design clothes that show more flesh than is gonna be seen in those ads.
You know what? Get them to hire a body double.
That way, they can photoshop your face onto someone else's body.
Why would I do that? Then everyone thinks I'm hiding something.
Plus, they'd still be looking at me and judging.
Trust me, honey, they're not gonna be judging.
They'll be envying, not judging.
I just would feel so vulnerable and I hate vulnerable.
Are we gonna order dessert? Mmm.
Mmm-hmm.
Why are you changing the subject? Because cheesecake is a reality.
Your posing is a fantasy.
It's never gonna happen.
You have a nudity hang up.
Excuse me? You wear your bathing suit in the sauna.
That's a germ hang up.
Well, you never shower in the gym.
Because, I have better water pressure at home.
Guys? Honey, in all the years that we've been friends, I've never seen you naked.
Have you ever seen her naked? No.
I've seen you naked.
I've seen you naked, too.
And cue porn music.
You know what? Fine, fine.
It's fine.
It's fine.
So, I'm a prude because I don't want to shed my clothes in front of some strange, creepy photographer.
Well, then hire someone you know.
How about Kirby? You'd be okay with that? Yeah, I'd be fine.
I mean, they're friends and they've worked together and besides, he's really talented, thank you, and he needs the work.
Is that supposed to make it less scary? Honey, you know what? If this is gonna drive you insane, then just let it go.
But if you want people to buy what you're selling, then they have to trust you.
They have to believe that you sleep in these sheets yourself, so that when they get into their bed, they feel that they're closer to being Victory Ford.
Really? Why? It's such a cold and lonely bed.
I bumped into Joe this morning.
What was that like? Cold.
Lonely.
Did you tell him everything that you needed to? It wasn't the place or the time.
Truth is, I caved.
Maybe you just weren't ready.
I think I'm just afraid.
Or you could do that today.
I mean, that's always a good choice, too.
Hi.
Excuse me.
Hey.
When you have a chance, look these over.
See if any of the candidates jump out at you.
What position are we trying to fill? Head of Bonfire's online content.
I'm head of Bonfire's online content.
As it's currently conceived.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Did I miss the, "Dear Nico, we're re-conceiving the online content" memo? There was no memo.
I just think we need someone to do this job, full-time, with no other distractions.
I can handle it.
This one was my assistant, she eats her hair.
That might have had something to do with working for you.
She also writes a blog that gets 50,000 hits a day.
I want our website to be a daily destination.
All right.
Well, give me month and let me work on it and if you're still not happy, you can interview the hair eater.
Sorry to interrupt.
Kirby's outside.
Oh, um We can talk more later.
Send him in.
Hey, there, Kirby.
How you doing? Hey.
Yeah.
Hi.
Hey.
Are you here on business? No, I have an interview in the neighborhood.
I guess, thanks to you.
Oh, so you decided to do it.
Good.
Well, I haven't been hired yet.
Victory wants me, but the Baron brothers still want to see my portfolio, you know, since I'm an unknown.
I'm sure that you'll impress them.
Yeah, that actually may take the both of us.
The only nudes I've taken are of you and I wanted to clear it with you first, you know, since last time.
Yeah, it's fine.
Just don't let them linger too long on the one that's backlit.
So, how are you doing? I'm okay.
Yeah, I'm good.
You? Keeping busy.
Working.
Going out.
Trying to get over you.
What's that? Oh, it's a reminder.
Time for a shot.
Of tequila? Hormones.
It's a fertility shot.
Whoa.
Yeah.
So, you're trying to get pregnant? I'm exploring my options.
Yeah, I mean, that makes sense.
You were really great with Charlie.
Thanks.
You, too.
Well, I better get to it.
Good luck with your interview.
Thanks.
Yeah.
You, too, you know, good luck.
Yeah.
Oh, good.
Peanuts! All right! Peanuts, it is.
Okay, peanuts will be an ingredient in tonight's dinner.
All right.
Now, your turn, Maddie.
Pick.
I don't want to play scavenger hunt.
Can't we just get what we need and go home? That's what we're doing.
Your ingredient, please? Gum.
Gum, hmm.
Binding.
Okay.
Well, I'm gonna go with chicken.
Hey, you.
Daddy! How are you? Hey, sorry I'm late.
Hi.
Well, you're in time to pick your ingredient.
Right now, dinner consists of peanuts, chicken and an amuse-bouche of gum.
Ah, okay, do I get to choose an ingredient even if I'm not gonna be home for the meal? Oh, are you working late? Yeah, sorry.
Deadline's on Friday and we're molasses in there.
It's all I could do to get out and see you guys now.
You can still pick an ingredient.
I can? All right, let's see.
Great.
What can we get? What do you want? Potatoes? Oh, well, that's a good choice, huh? Yeah.
So, listen.
I actually got the craziest offer today.
Really? What's that? Josie brought Natasha Bedingfield into the studio.
Natasha Bedingfield? The Natasha Bedingfield? Oh, my God, she opened for Justin Timberlake.
Do I get to meet him? What was the offer? To go on tour with her.
Josie gave her my demo.
She flipped for it.
She needs a replacement for the keyboards.
You're going on tour with Natasha Bedingfield? Where? When? Hold on.
Hold on.
Tour? How long? Well, they're talking four months.
International, 10 languages, three continents.
It's outrageous.
Dad, you have to do this.
Okay, well, what did you tell her? I mean, you can't be gone that long.
Seriously, what about the family? Oh, who cares? We'll visit.
What continents? All right, you know what? Why don't we discuss this whenever you do get home tonight, okay? Right.
Looking forward to it.
Hey, you sure you don't want to order dinner? No, I'm fine.
What's that? Griffin sent down another résumé for you to look at.
I don't need more résumés.
I need three more hours in the day.
Well, I need those for sleep.
Can I head home, please? Yes, go.
I'll see you in the morning.
Thank you.
Eat something.
I will! Oh, hey, I was just putting this food away.
Have you eaten? Yeah.
How'd the rest of the recording session go? We're getting there.
The kids are asleep? Yeah, Taylor is.
Maddie is doing her homework, allegedly.
Look, honey, I've been thinking about this offer and if the tour's really important to you, maybe we can work it out.
Maybe you can do part of it.
Appreciate the permission.
Oh, come on.
I do have a say, don't I? Yeah.
But I don't recall you consulting me every time you jet off to a movie set, Wendy.
Well, I never left for more than two weeks.
You're talking about four months.
Cumulatively, you were gone for more than four months, really.
Oh, so, now we're taking attendance? Okay.
No, no, I don't have to.
We don't have to do that, Wendy.
We've got two children and you think it would be an unreasonable amount of time for me to be away.
We're talking about four months, Shane, and God knows how many different time zones.
All right, what's going on with you? Two weeks ago, you told me you want to have another baby.
Yeah, and you kicked that one out just as fast as you could, didn't you? No, I questioned it and it's a good thing I did, if you were thinking of taking off the first chance you get.
Look, Shane, I know that this tour is tempting and it's very flattering.
Oh, finally, some words of encouragement! When have I not encouraged you? This afternoon, you poisoned the offer before you could even take a second to be happy for me.
I didn't poison anything.
Yeah, you did.
Right away, you went to why it couldn't work.
Oh, I'm sorry I didn't have the perfect response.
Why don't you write me a script the next time? Sure, I will.
And when that script shoots in New Zealand for 10 months and you have to pack up and bugger off and we all have to watch you on a webcam I have never left this family for 10 months.
God and I certainly wouldn't do it without consulting you.
What if I got a phone call tomorrow, offering me a job in Los Angeles? I wouldn't expect you to jump up and down with delight.
You're damn sure to get more out of me than I get out of you.
I mean, Wendy, I'm not asking for much.
It's pretty basic, really.
I'd just like a smile.
Congratulations.
Just something.
Okay, you know what? This whole tour thing, it came at me out of the blue.
You sure that's all it is? What is that supposed to mean? Well, it's got to mean something.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have said it.
Let's face it, Wendy.
It was better for you when I was someone you had to take care of, wasn't it? Oh, God, if you honestly believe that, then we've got a serious problem.
And maybe we do.
Oh! Miss Ford! I'm so sorry.
I thought you were gone for the night.
No, no, it's okay.
It's all right.
I was just No, no, no.
None of my business.
I'll just go upstairs.
No, don't.
Don't go upstairs.
I need to ask you a question.
I didn't see anything, honestly.
No, another question, but that's good.
Would you consider me a bold person? Your designs are bold.
Roy There is nothing wrong with being a cautious person.
I think, sometimes it stops us from getting into trouble.
Yeah, but sometimes it stops us from getting what we want! Salty lunch? No, it's just really warm in here.
He's still stuck in traffic, but close.
Thank you.
Yeah, let's hope he's better at negotiating web traffic.
They're tearing up 57th Street.
Cut him some slack.
What, is this guy related to you? Son of my college buddy.
Is this the Maybelline campaign? It's so hot in here.
Are you feeling feverish? No, it's just I don't know.
I need some air.
There's no air in here.
Aren't you hot? No, I'm comfortable.
Is everything okay? You want to take some aspirin? I don't need to take any aspirin.
I need a breeze.
I'm sorry.
It's just I probably didn't sleep well last night.
That have anything to do with that visit yesterday? What? Kirby? Oh, no.
No.
He came by to thank me for a job referral.
Oh.
We broke up, actually.
I mean, not yesterday, but Hmm.
Sorry to hear that.
Thanks.
Can you excuse me for a minute? Don't be too long.
You're the one with the tough questions.
Right.
Hey.
How are you feeling? Hi.
Sick.
Dizzy sick or bucket sick? All of the above.
So, how are you? I'm sorry about you and Nico.
Thanks.
This is a good distraction.
Hey, you gonna be okay? Yeah.
Great, yeah.
So are all these people gonna be here when we start the Yeah.
I mean, I could send some of them home and the rest will just look at their shoes.
Yeah, you know, I thought this would be a good idea since we know each other, but I made a mistake.
This is totally weird.
Okay, you know You doing this.
I can set up and Stacy can take the pictures.
What? Who's Stacy? She's the one in the back, sharpening the eyebrow pencil.
Okay, I get it.
Breathe.
Hello? Yeah.
Hold on one second.
Shane? It's your wife.
Yeah? My wife.
Hello? Look, Taylor's teacher just called and she wants us to come in for a meeting.
Why? There was something that happened today at school and she's concerned.
What? Well, is Taylor okay? Yeah, he's fine.
He's in class, but there's a behavioral issue.
Those are her words.
I don't know.
She wouldn't elaborate on the phone, which makes me think that it's something serious.
When? Today at 4:00.
Today? No, no, no, I can't do that.
The cut is due on Friday.
I've told you that, darling.
You're gonna have to call her back and see if you can push it to next week.
You want me to push Taylor's teacher? Okay, look.
I'll try to be there.
I've got to get back to work, now, though.
All right? Thanks, bye.
Yes.
Hey.
Hey.
Call 911.
Nico? Mmm.
Hi, Wen.
Hi.
You know that Shane's at the recording studio? Oh, yeah, I came to see you.
Really, I'm actually doing fine.
I was not about to leave you in that hospital by yourself.
I can go back to work and I'm really feeling great now.
They said you need to rest.
That was not gonna happen on your office couch.
So you know what's happening now? You are laying down.
Okay.
Laying down.
I'm good.
There you go.
You hungry? I could order something.
I'm fine.
Thanks.
Want some raisins? That's what you got out of the vending machine? Raisins? I was at the hospital.
I thought I should go healthy.
Well, I take it it's a no on the raisins? Fine.
How about some tea? I could make you some tea.
I am going to make you some tea.
It's on the second shelf.
I can find it! Did I ever tell you that my ex-boyfriend is a musician? No, I don't think so.
So, over the last few years of our relationship, he was on the road a lot, and it was just, you know, fun and exciting.
And when I wasn't with him, we would just do everything over the phone.
You know, it was great.
We bought a condo on the phone.
We picked out sofas.
We had amazing phone sex.
Josie Then I asked him to come back here to New York City.
He would say that I clipped his wings.
I don't know.
Maybe I did.
I just felt scared, you know? Anyway, it doesn't matter.
We broke up anyway.
There was just too much resentment once he got back.
Well, I am really sorry that didn't work out.
Thanks.
But turning down the tour, that was a decision that Shane and I came to together, as a couple.
No.
I'm just saying What? Isn't this something he's always wanted to do? Okay, you know what? I think you're overstepping a little here.
Oh.
Wen, I'm his manager, so I just You know, it's my job to look out for his best interests as an artist.
Well, Jose, I'm his wife and it's my job to look out for his best interests.
Period.
So, if you don't mind, I've got to get back to work.
Thank you for the cupcakes.
Okay.
Call me.
Okay.
Okay.
That's a wrap.
What? Are you sure you got everything you need? Because I'm not tired, if we need more options.
We've got options for our options.
We're done.
You killed it.
Thanks, Kirby.
It just escalated very quickly.
One second, there was a small shove and the next minute, he was on top of Finn, throwing punches.
Finn? But they're best friends.
I've never seen them fight.
There's something going on with Taylor.
He's picking fights, unprovoked.
Are you sure? I mean, you know, he's not Wendy, let's not argue with her.
I'm not arguing with her.
I'm just surprised.
I mean, I haven't noticed anything at home.
Oh, it's not unusual.
Often when children act out, they do it at school.
Has anything changed recently at home? Well, yes.
Shane's recently just started working full-time.
She asked what's changed.
That's not a reason why Taylor would be pummeling his best friend.
No, we don't know what caused it, do we? Mr.
and Mrs.
Healy You know what? Maybe it's because his mother said she was gonna stop work recently, because she would be able to spend more time at home, but she's actually started loading up with projects again.
That could be it.
Shane.
Tossing out ideas.
Clearly, there are some new issues at home and I'm concerned about how they're impacting Taylor.
Yeah.
I'm so sorry, Mrs.
Greene.
We've just been under a little stress lately, so We'll work it out.
Maybe you want to let Taylor know that? Of course.
Here we go.
Oh, wow.
You need some sugar? No, that's perfect.
Yeah? Look Thank you.
I overheard the paramedics talking to you about your fertility procedure.
You know what? Just so you know, I'm just freezing some of my eggs in case I want to have a child, but I'm not having a baby now and I don't have any immediate plans.
Nico No and the fainting won't happen again.
My ovaries are over-stimulated, but my medications have since been adjusted, so I'm good.
So even your ovaries are overachievers, huh? When is the retrieval? Wow, that's very clinical of you.
I have friends that went through it last year.
They now have a beautiful little girl.
Her name is Maisy.
Next Thursday.
Hey.
Hey.
I'm sorry.
Did No, no, I'm just I'm bursting with estrogen and this keeps happening to me.
It's Just ignore me.
I just never thought that I would be doing this alone.
Leave that.
I'll get it later.
Later, you had better be asleep.
You want this last spring roll? No, I'm done.
Thank you for babysitting me.
I'm sure you had better things to do tonight.
Not really.
I would have been sitting on my couch instead of yours watching game highlights.
And actually, your couch is much more comfortable than mine.
Where is your couch? I mean, where do you live? Are you kidding me? That's three blocks from here.
What? You want to carpool? That what you're hinting at? I don't want to carpool.
I love that building.
I have always wanted to live there.
Yeah, the building is great, but I could be living in a hotel.
Basically, I use two rooms.
I'm never there.
Yeah, this is a lot of space for one person, too.
Why are you still single? I mean, not that it's any of my business, but since you've become intimately acquainted with my ovaries, I figured I could ask.
I was married for seven years.
Really? Mmm.
You have children? No.
I wasn't at home in Chicago, either.
Every job I've had since business school has kept me moving.
Moving up very fast.
But not without some collateral damage.
You still speak with your ex? Christmas cards.
Jonell remarried about three years ago.
She's got two beautiful kids and I've got a beautiful job.
Well, if it's any consolation, you have a really beautiful job.
I have spent years lusting after your job.
I've done plenty of that, but Jonell would tell you, don't do what I did.
Don't waste your lust on a job.
You should definitely hire someone for that new media position.
If today is any indication, I have been overextending myself and I need to prioritize.
You sure? Yes.
I am.
Okay.
I should get going.
Highlight reel starts again at 10:00.
Thank you for everything.
It's my pleasure.
I should probably get going.
Yeah.
Good night.
I'll let myself out.
So, what should we start with, huh? Three at Sea? I want Daddy to read that one.
Okay.
You know, Daddy might not be home till very late.
How about, instead of reading, we just talk? How is everything with you and Finn these days? Your teacher said you guys had a fight during lunch.
What was the fight about? I want Daddy to read this one, too.
Honey, you can tell me.
Daddy! Hey, you, come here.
Will you read to me in bed? Yeah, sure, but I just got in, so why don't you ask Mom if she will do it for you? He wants you.
Hello.
Hello.
What are you doing here? Just fixing the perfect martini, minus the vermouth.
That would make it imperfect.
Why don't you taste it first? So, I want to talk about what happened with us.
I'd really rather not rehash that, if you don't mind.
Well, that's not fair, Joe.
I mean, you pulled up in your limo and you got to say what you wanted to say, but I never got to say what I wanted to say.
So, that night at my store opening, I thanked Rodrigo, instead of you, and I know now why I did that.
To say out loud how important you are to me, that would have made me feel really exposed.
I'm getting a lot better with that these days, so I came here to say two things to you.
One, I'm sorry.
And two, thank you.
Thank you for everything that you've done for me.
You're welcome.
Wait, three.
I would have said yes.
To your proposal.
I would have said yes.
May I say something? Oh, I thought you were at the studio all day.
Yeah.
I am.
I'm on my way out now.
Did you get any sleep last night? Not much.
I ducked into the bedroom, as soon as the kids got up.
Did you talk to Taylor? I did.
He wanted to know if one of us was gonna move out.
I guess, 'cause of Finn's parents splitting up.
I told him we were fine.
Huh.
Is that a problem? Well, I'm not so sure we are.
What? Fine.
I think that we should see somebody, a marriage counselor.
Fine.
I've got to get a move on.
You gonna be home for dinner? Yeah, I'll try.
Hey, you.
Hi.
Sleep well? Oh, those sheets are made of clouds.
I'm ripping them off for my line.
They use them at the Burj Al Arab in Dubai.
I had them shipped in.
So, in other words, out of my costumers' price-point? Damn.
Do you have some place you have to be? Lunch meeting in Boston.
Sorry to be rude, but I made the arrangements before I knew you would be stopping by.
Stop smirking.
You missed this smirk.
Admit it.
Haven't I admitted enough? Have a nice breakfast.
So, what are we now? A day older? Anna, stop! Anna! Anna! Anna, stop! Anna, stop! Anna! Anna! I can't! I can't just run off.
Who's life is it, Anna, yours or your father's? It's not that simple.
Please don't make me choose.
Let me be your family.
Okay, we should stop there.
That's enough.
We're done.
You are a genius.
Stop it.
I don't use that term loosely.
This score adds so much.
Todd, can you excuse us for a minute, please, mate? Thanks.
So So Listen, we should talk.
Yeah, you want to do that right now? Well, better do it sooner than later.
Yeah, Shane, listen, the only reason why I went to Wendy is because I feel so strongly about this job for you.
I know.
That's why I want you to call Natasha Bedingfield.
Tell her I'm in.
Oh.
You passed out at work? I got carried off in a stretcher on the 27th floor in front of everyone.
What do they think is going on? I don't know.
I haven't checked the blogs yet.
I gave up my online responsibilities.
Why didn't you call us, by the way? Yeah? Well, because Griffin escorted me to Lenox Hill and then took me home and he wouldn't leave until he knew I was okay.
He made me tea and ordered me dinner.
He was actually very sweet.
Okay, you're making me like him.
Don't do that.
I don't want to like him.
Yeah, me, neither.
The truth is, we actually have a lot in common.
Oh, is he freezing his eggs, too? No! But he didn't bat an eyelash when I told him I was.
Very different reaction than Kirby.
Said, "Whoa.
" I slept with Joe Bennett last night.
Whoa.
What happened? Tell us.
What? When did this happen? I went to his hotel and I said all the things that I've wanted to say for months and then I stayed.
It was nice.
Well, so, does he want to get back together? He certainly acted like it last night.
Well, what did he say? It wasn't so much what he said as what he did, what we did again.
Okay.
Enough, enough, enough.
Ew! I don't want to know the details.
Oh, who's the prude, now? Oh, we've unleashed a monster.
Don't worry.
I'm gonna be the most demure bride ever.
Did you say bride? Did you say bride? Did Joe propose to you? No, it's my turn this time.
I'm gonna ask him to marry me.
She's skipping.
She's skipping.
Finally smiling.
Finally.
Thank God.
