Grace

1
[HIP-HOP SONG PLAYING]
Okay, look. So here's our problem.
To expand Space For Everyone nationally
and to keep it running forever,
we need a gigantic amount of money.
Even more money than Molly has.
Well, we tried, you guys.
We put up a good fight. It
was an honor serving with you,
but I will be deleting all of
your numbers. Molly, let's go.
No. Nicholas, we're not giving up.
[GROANS] Fine. But could
you at least all try
to be a little more interesting?
- Is that too much to ask?
- [CHUCKLES]
Sofia and I have decided to recruit
some other billionaire donors
who are as generous, relatable and
hot-but-they-don't-know-it as me.
Well, here are some potential
partners I came up with. [CHUCKLES]
- [OFFICE EMPLOYEES GASP]
- Oh! Oh, shit!
I killed a bunch of those
in my video game last night.
Howard, zip it.
This is Ronald Murphy.
He has a ton of oil money.
And he is alive as of this morning.
Does he have a lot of oil because
all his friends were dinosaurs?
[CHUCKLES]
Arthur, that was so funny.
- Aw.
- Mmm.
Well, I tried getting in touch
with him but no response so far.
- Is his telegraph broken?
- [SPUTTERS] Oh, my God.
Stop it. You're just like Ellen.
- Right? [CHUCKLES]
- Yes.
Well, we've also reached
out to Daniel Lee,
Malik Fayed and Fuller Channing
but they haven't been
returning my calls.
Well, it's going to be
tough this time of year
because they're all hiding from the IRS.
- Mmm.
- Mmm.
[MOLLY] Oh, that's Grace Fences.
We used to vacation together.
But I've lost touch with
her since my divorce.
Oh. Well, she got divorced
herself and she got $110 billion.
110? Cousin Molly, you only got 87!
You should've got
cheated on by her husband.
[SOFIA] Oh. Well, no. Grace
has gone completely dark.
She hasn't had any interviews
with the press. Nothing.
Oh, well, I say we just
show up at her house.
Oh, we can't just drop in uninvited
Sofia, if you're worth over $10 billion,
legally, you're allowed to
show up wherever you want.
That is absolutely not true.
I don't know. I've been
to, like, ten Olympics.
Never once bought a ticket.
- Oh, well. All right. Then let's try it.
- [PHONE BUZZES]
Well, we gotta do something,
'cause old vampire dude just died
[ALL] Aw.
In a skateboarding accident?
[HIP-HOP SONG PLAYING]
[SONG ENDS]
[KNOCKING]
- We need this money, Molly. [SIGHS]
- I know we do.
Is there anything I should
know about this lady?
Oh, Grace is super sweet.
She's a little uptight maybe,
but she'll definitely help us out.
- [UPBEAT MUSIC PLAYING]
- Who the hell are you?
Grace. [CHUCKLES] It's me, Molly Wells.
- [GASPS] Oh, holy shit! Molly!
- [CHUCKLES]
Oh, it's so good to see you. Oh.
Oh, I don't know whose
glasses these are.
You guys, come in. You
want something to drink?
[MOLLY] Uh, should we come back later?
Uh, no! God, no. We're just
finishing up brunch. [LAUGHS]
[GASPS] Dahveedo, did
you pee on the floor?
Or is that the dog?
You know what? It doesn't
matter. It's fine. [CHUCKLES]
This is Sofia Salinas.
She is the head of my foundation.
Here, take one of these.
I wanna finish everything over $50,000
before Spencer comes
back for them. Fucker.
- [PEOPLE CHEERING]
- That's actually why we're here.
I'm so sorry about you and Spencer.
Oh, no! No, I'm fine.
Don't even worry about me.
Don't Don't be. It's the best
thing that ever happened to me.
- I'm already even seeing somebody new.
- Yeah?
Have you ever heard of DJ Pandahead?
- [GRACE CHUCKLES]
- [MOLLY] No.
Wow. He's very mysterious.
- Right?
- Mm-hmm.
Grace, is there somewhere a
little quieter where we can talk?
We would love to, uh, discuss
a possible collaboration.
Business? With me?
[CHUCKLES] No one ever
wants to do that. Okay. Yeah!
Hey, everyone, I'm
gonna be a businesswoman!
- [LAUGHS]
- [CHEERING]
Yeah, let's go out. Let's go out
back. You guys wanna go out back?
- Okay.
- Great.
Just, um Just watch
out for any broken glass.
[GASPS] And pills.
Hey, Dahveedo. Are these safe?
Okay, AirPods are a go. I'm
paired up. Can you hear me?
[WILLA] I can hear you.
Somebody didn't wake me up to give
me my goodbye kiss this morning.
Well, I'm sorry but
you looked so darn cute
in my Reba McEntire T-shirt.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's still on speaker.
You're not paired up.
I can hear everything.
Hold on. Sorry, what?
I need you to put on your Bluetooth.
Oh, oh. Sorry.
Okay, um All right,
home screen settings, uh
Oh, there's a compass feature.
Oh, that's handy. Uh,
here and there. Okay.
Are the AirPods working now, babe?
How is she supposed to know?
It all sounds the same to her.
She's not the one suffering.
I'm the one suffering through
you being a sexual being!
Hold on. Sorry. What was that, Howard?
[GROANS] Oh, well.
He's upset about something.
Hey, do you mind if I hide
out in here for a while?
I just can't deal with Ar
You got an audition. I-I'm sorry,
did I interrupt your metamorphosis?
No, it's fine. I don't
even think I want this part.
Well, what is it?
Oh, my God. This is for
My Handsome Lawyer.
You can't say no to this.
Why not? It's not even an American show.
I don't know how they
found me. It's Korean.
Whoa. First of all,
I do not like how hard you
hit that "K" in "Korean."
And secondly, MHL is
a international phenomenon.
It won a BAFTA for editing.
Well, it doesn't matter
because I don't speak Korean.
- None?
- No. I was adopted
when I was, like, six months old.
Oh, well. I mean, that's okay.
Yeah, you know, I could teach
you. I know a little Korean.
- You do?
- Yeah.
And you know, I lived in Koreatown.
I didn't wanna be
some ignorant American.
Or as they say, "mi-guk-nom."
[INHALES DEEPLY, SIGHS]
Okay, well, fine.
I guess I would be pretty
good at playing Jae-Sun,
a sexy-but-misunderstood bailiff.
Yes, you would. Well, okay
then. Court is in session.
- Hmm.
- [SCISSOR SNIPPING]
So, Space for Everyone
has been a huge success,
but we are looking to expand.
And um
I'm sorry. Is this distracting?
[CHUCKLES] Spencer collected
rare baseball cards.
But he doesn't need them anymore
now that he collects 19-year-olds!
- And there goes Ted Williams.
- Yeah. Bye, Ted!
Grace, we think our model can
work in any major city in America.
Yes. Yes! That's amazing.
Gracie, we are out of tequila.
- Oh.
- We need to buy more.
Oh, yeah. How much money do you need?
- $75,000.
- [GRACE] Oh, no problem.
Just get it from the,
um that money bucket.
Okay.
So, it's been a big undertaking
and we're looking for investors
- Molly, Molly, Molly. Molly.
- Yes?
Say no more, I'm fucking in.
- You are?
- Yes, of course I am.
You're both smart,
determined and hot as hell.
[INHALES SHARPLY] I
mean, how much do you two
grade-A stun-bunnies need, huh?
Five billy? Ten billy?
Eleven's my lucky number if
you wanna round up. No problem.
Oh, Erika!
If you're going to the store,
get some more frosting. [CACKLES]
Spencer was such a dick about frosting!
[SOFIA CHUCKLING] This is so exciting.
Did you hear her?
Eleven billion dollars.
Okay, so with her money we
can definitely start expanding.
- I'll call
- Sofia, we can't take Grace's money.
Well, why not?
You saw her. She's not
thinking rationally.
I look at her and I
see myself a year ago.
She needs a friend to
help her through this.
- Just like a certain someone helped me.
- [CHUCKLING]
- I'm talking about you, Sofia.
- I know. [CHUCKLES]
And look at us now,
we're practically sisters.
- I wouldn't say that.
- I've heard many people say it.
Look, why don't you go back to work?
I'll stay here, I'll talk
to her a little bit more
and see if I can calm her down.
Okay, well, be careful.
This place is one volleyball game
away from turning into a sex cult.
[SPEAKING KOREAN]
Okay, well. You're getting better.
But it's not a strong "T" sound
at the beginning of ttam.
More cross between a "T" and a "D."
Tta. Tta. Try again.
Ta. Ta.
Okay, maybe put your tongue a
little further back in your palate.
- Da. Da.
- Okay, now that's too far back.
May I have permission to
place my fingers in your mouth?
- What? No!
- Hey, do you want this role or not?
Look, it is clear I'm
not gonna get this.
So let's just forget it, okay?
There are other roles
for me to audition for.
Like this is from the Entourage sequel.
"Yo, E, I'm TikTok-ing over here.
Are you bitches orgying tonight?"
This is clearly a
much better fit for me.
If you say so.
[GROANS]
[DISTORTED] Fuck.
[NORMAL] Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck,
fuck, fuck, fuck,
fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.
- Will you get me another drink, honey?
- Mm-hmm.
Thank you, T-Tera.
- Tera? Where's my fucking earring?
- Grace.
Oh! Hi, Molly. What are you doing here?
Did you come back?
Is it a different day?
Grace, I can't in good
conscience take your money.
What? Why not?
Sweetie, you're not
in the right headspace
to be making big financial
decisions right now.
Trust me.
A month after my divorce,
I invested in a Broadway musical
adaptation of Adaptation.
- Oh, yeah. I remember that.
- So I know the pain you're going through.
- [CRIES]
- Aw.
I don't know what happened.
- [CLICKS TONGUE]
- And what is he even doing?
I mean, this girl is 19 years old.
- [STAMMERS]
- [SCOFFS]
Did I do something wrong?
[SOBS]
You are not to blame
for his midlife crisis
- [BREATHES DEEPLY]
- and small penis.
- This is fucking embarrassing. [SNIFFLES]
- No.
He's the one that should
be fucking embarrassed.
[SNIFFLES]
Thanks for coming by, Molly.
- Yeah.
- Oh.
Would you excuse me for
a second? I'm gonna, um
I'm gonna go freshen up.
Yes, of course. Of
course. Take your time.
[SNIFFLES]
[GASPS] Sup?
- No.
- Cool.
Cool.
[SNIFFS] Ooh, okay. I am refreshed.
[GASPS] Listen, listen, listen,
listen! I just had the best idea, okay?
We're going to Reykjavík!
Yeah, we're gonna go clubbing.
We're gonna ice-skate.
We're gonna eat some penguins.
We're gonna get fucking crazy!
Who's in? Who's in? Huh?
- [PEOPLE CHEERING]
- Yes? All right.
Grace, don't you think you
should take a nap first?
- Maybe have an IV?
- [GRACE LAUGHS]
Wow, you're hilarious. All
right, come on, you all.
We're gonna hop on the PJ.
When we get there, I'm
gonna buy everyone Teslas
and we are gonna drive
'em into the fucking ocean!
[LAUGHING]
You know what? Why-why
don't I come with you?
Maybe just hang around,
see if you need any help.
[GASPS] Shut the fuck up,
Molly. Yes! Thank you so much.
All right. Come on, everybody.
We're heading to the Oh.
Oh, shit! Oh, whoa. Okay.
Just "FIY", this is not an
optical illusion, everyone.
PJ! PJ! PJ! [SCREAMS]
Nicholas, please allow me
to introduce you to Eun-Joo.
Okay?
- You're right, he's very beautiful.
- Mm-hmm.
He could definitely be on
My Handsome Lawyer.
Mm-hmm.
I'm sorry, how do you
two know each other?
Oh, Eun-Joo is a server at
my favorite Korean restaurant.
He eats so much radish,
we call him Radish Hole.
[CHUCKLES] Oh, come on.
It's not that much radish.
- It's a lot of radish.
- I'm so sorry.
- Do I need to be here for this?
- Oh, yes, you do,
because she's agreed to
be your dialogue coach.
Howard, no. We have been through this.
You're gonna be polite.
Eun-Joo came all the way from Koreatown
and I did not pay for her Uber.
[SIGHS]
- [HOWARD] See you in the conference room?
- Mm-hmm.
Hey, did you cancel the budget meeting?
Yep.
Okay. Why?
I don't have to tell you. I don't
have to tell anyone anything.
All right. [SCOFFS]
Is this about seeing
Willa and I canoodling?
Arthur, I don't wanna talk about this.
In fact, if you say another
word, I will fire you.
- What?
- [SIGHS] Okay, I'm not going to fire you.
I just don't wanna talk to
you for the rest of the day.
You know what? Make it
a week. Work from home.
Do you want the door open
or closed? Or slightly ajar?
Slightly ajar!
[ARTHUR] It's not Okay, I'm
not sure how to deal with this.
["LOSE CONTROL" PLAYING]
[CROWD CHATTERING]
[MOLLY] Grace.
Sweetie, um, you might wanna
pull the front of your dress up.
Your nips keep popping out.
Um, how about we go sit down
and have a glass of water?
[CHUCKLES] The only thing I'm
thirsty for is this felt piece of ass.
[GRACE MOANS]
[GRACE LAUGHS]
- [SNIFFS] Do you know what I just heard?
- No.
Dahveedo is so into you. He
wants to hook up in the cockpit.
- Oh, God. No. A absolutely not.
- Why not?
Are you seeing someone else?
No.
I very much am not.
Well, then what's the problem?
Come on, you're off the clock.
Here Oh, here. Come
on. Take one of these.
- I don't want this.
- Come on. It will make me feel better.
Oh, Grace.
- [GROANS, LAUGHS]
- [GROANS]
Oh, God. What's in this? Robitussin?
- And NyQuil.
- Oh.
- And DayQuil.
- [GRUNTS]
[HOARSE VOICE] That is good.
- [LAUGHING]
- That is good.
Yeah. Whoo!
Oh, Mommy. Wow.
[SPEAKING KOREAN]
We are getting closer, uh,
but you're still very bad.
Don't even think about putting
your fingers in his mouth.
He's very uptight about that.
- His accent's very strange.
- Mmm.
You aren't Japanese, are you?
Ew, no. I'm from Indiana.
And your family never
spoke Korean at home?
No, they didn't.
Well, you should go to Korea to
hear the language and to find a wife.
Pick someone very poor. She
will always listen to you.
Yeah, sorry. I only travel to places
where Leo takes his child brides.
Wa-Wait a minute. I
think I might've just
had the biggest bro-storm of my life.
Maybe me and you go to Korea.
- What?
- You've never been, I never been.
And we'd go in the spring
when the cherry blossoms turn.
Okay. What the hell is going on here?
How did this go from an audition
to, "You should go to Korea?"
Okay, that's not happening.
End of discussion.
Everyone just needs to fuck off.
Eun-Joo, you're very nice. I'm
so sorry for wasting your time
but you're only here
because he wants to fuck you.
[HOWARD GRUNTS]
- [SOFIA] Arthur
- Hold on. I have something I need to say.
I have been doing some research
and what you are doing to
me is called "slut-shaming."
I was not slut-shaming you.
You can do what you want in private,
but I just don't wanna see it
because it's it's weird.
But it is not weird. Willa and
I are two consenting adults.
We weren't even in the office,
and things barely turned French.
- [GAGS]
- Sofia, we are all sexual creatures.
Okay, stop, stop. We are
coworkers and we need boundaries.
What happened was unnatural.
Okay, now what I think you are
doing to me is called "gaslighting."
[SCOFFS] You're gaslighting me,
'cause I know what I
saw was fucking bizarre
and it will haunt my dreams forever.
'Kay, you're being avoidant!
That is in here too!
- [ENERGETIC MUSIC PLAYING]
- [GRACE LAUGHS]
Fuck water! Fuck water! Fuck water!
- [LAUGHS] And fuck men!
- Yeah. [CHUCKLES]
Especially blond men with
Australian girlfriends.
[SIGHING] We have each other.
- Mmm.
- Mmm. I love you.
- I'm never leaving your side.
- [PHONE BUZZES]
Ooh, that's my phone.
Mmm.
You got Molly, baby. Talk to me.
Um, are you okay?
Uh, never been better, boo-boo.
What's good with you?
Grace just posted a picture of
you two in matching Viking helmets.
Are you in Iceland?
Uh, yeah. Duh.
- Are you drunk?
- I don't know.
Are you my mom?
Molly, you're supposed to be
helping Grace, not enabling her.
You know, maybe Grace isn't wrong.
Maybe we're the ones that are wrong.
What's the point in being
good when you feel so shitty
and lonely all the time?
Bye, Mom!
What do you mean you
have to go to Majorca?
I thought we were gonna
go ice-skating together.
That's the whole point
of coming to Iceland.
Don't you shrug at me.
- Is everything okay?
- Yeah, no. It's fine.
He's just being an asshole.
Look at me.
Look Take off your head
and look me in the eyes.
Who the fuck are you?
[MOLLY] Is that not your boyfriend?
No, my my boyfriend was Filipino.
I don't know who the fuck that is.
My name's Justin. I'm
DJ Pandahead on Tuesdays.
What the fuck are you talking about?
There's more than one DJ
Pandahead. He's more of a symbol.
- Then who the fuck did I show my tits to?
- [GRUNTS]
You want a piece of this? All right.
- You know what?
- No, Grace.
I got some high heels
and some big titties!
Howard, I really don't
wanna talk about yesterday.
Hey, look No, I-I need to apologize.
I understand I put you in
a very awkward situation.
Fine. Go ahead.
It's just I get it now.
I know I should have
never suggested we go
on a international vacation
this early in our friendship.
No. That is not it.
We should start small. Just
drive up the coast to Carmel,
go to some vintage shops, try on
some hats, make each other laugh.
We are not doing that.
Look, yesterday with
all that talk about Korea,
it just It brought up a lot, okay?
'Cause I've never even been there.
Now I find out I can't even
speak the language right,
and it's like I'm not white, thank God,
but I'm not Asian enough either.
And it's just, like, sometimes I
feel like I don't know where I fit.
Hmm. And you've been carrying all that?
Yeah, but it's fine. Don't worry
about it. It's not your problem.
Oh, no, no. It is my problem
and I will worry about it
because we're best friends.
And if you wanna talk about
it, then I'm right here.
If you don't, I'm still here.
[CHUCKLES] Thank you.
Anytime.
Oh, you know, we could always
just take a trip to Sedona.
It's very spiritual, very beautiful.
Howard, why do you keep
pitching the gayest trips?
- Then what about Disneyland?
- No.
- Palm Springs.
- Okay, you are moving
in the wrong direction, my friend.
- Miami?
- Jesus Christ.
Okay, now all of a sudden Miami's gay?
[PANTS] You okay? I
came as fast as I could.
No, wait. He should be here any second.
- [ISAAC] Who should be here? Oh.
- [SOFIA SHUSHES] Here he comes.
[BOTH MOAN]
No, no, no, no, no.
Oh, my God. You were right.
I'm so sorry, I I
hate this. It's unnatural.
[SIGHS]
Thanks. I'll see you at dinner.
- Oh.
- Mm-hmm. Yeah.
Boop. [CHUCKLES, SIGHS]
[KNOCKING]
Hey.
You're still here?
Of course.
- Wow.
- [CHUCKLES]
[GRUNTS, GULPING]
[MOANS] Oh, God. Oh,
God. Water is so good.
- [CHUCKLES] Yeah.
- Oh. [CHUCKLES]
Oh. I'm sorry about DJ Pandaheads.
I don't care about them,
they were just a distraction.
[CHUCKLES] What am I supposed to do now?
I mean, what what is this life?
Look, I know how scary
all of this is, but
[SIGHS] Let me guess,
everything's gonna be all right?
Oh, definitely not.
Like an hour ago, I threw
up a quart of Robitussin.
So I am [INHALES DEEPLY]
not okay. [CHUCKLES]
But I can tell you that
your life is not over.
My divorce was a nightmare
but it led me to my work,
where I discovered things
about myself that I didn't know.
Like that I can lead and not follow.
And that I can create
something for myself.
I guess I have John to thank for that.
- Really?
- Of course not.
Fuck that motherfucker.
[BOTH CHUCKLING]
No, look, I'm glad you
found something. I am.
[SIGHS] I wouldn't even
know where to start. I
Just start small, you know?
What do you want to do today?
If you could do anything.
- Anything?
- Anything at all. Nothing's too stupid.
[LAUGHING, EXCLAIMING]
- Holy shit! This is so hard.
- [LAUGHS]
I'm sorry, I haven't
done this in 20 years.
- I thought it'd be like riding a bike.
- [LAUGHING] Why do people do this?
- I don't know.
- It's like balancing on two knives.
Oh, God, it's so unbearably smooth.
I really don't wanna die in this vest.
- [LAUGHING]
- [LAUGHING] Okay.
- All right. I'm going in.
- Ooh.
- No, you're not ready.
- No, I am.
- [INHALES DEEPLY] Oh, I got this!
- Oh, God.
Here comes a Hamilt [EXCLAIMS]
- [LAUGHING]
- [SCREAMS, LAUGHS]
- [WHEEZES, LAUGHS] Oh, no.
- [GRUNTS]
- [LAUGHS] You don't got this.
- I don't got it.
- Oh, no. You [LAUGHING]
- Oh! [LAUGHING]
You don't got this. [LAUGHS]
[SOFIA] You made it back.
Yeah, but I think I need to
sleep for the next six days.
How's Grace?
I think she's gonna be okay.
Well, you know she
actually just called, Molly.
- She wants to give us all of her money.
- [GASPS]
- [CHUCKLES]
- What?
I guess it was a good idea
for you to get wasted with her.
Just for the record, I did say
some pretty inspirational things.
I think.
I don't know, it's a little bit fuzzy.
Oh, no. Not only that.
Now that Grace is
donating, the word is out.
We already have commitments
from three other billionaires.
- Oh, my God!
- [CHUCKLES, STAMMERS]
- We're doing this.
- We are doing this! [CHUCKLING]
- Oh. Ow, ow, ow.
- [GASPS] Oh, I'm so sorry.
- I'm very bruised from the ice-skating.
- Should I stop?
- Don't stop. Don't stop.
- [CHUCKLES]
This is amazing.
- Ow, ow, ow, ow.
- Oh, apologies. I'm so sorry.
- Nope, don't stop.
- Okay.
Best friends.
