[BUZZING STOPS]
[ALICE] Good morning, sunshine. Wow.
- You are a deep sleeper.
- I grew up near a firehouse.
Learned to sleep through anything.
- For real?
- [LAUGHS] No. I took
a gummy at 2 a.m. because I woke up and
- I couldn't fall back asleep.
- Well, I slept
great because I was very tired from you.
Wow.
You got heels and, like, you
look like Alice, the superstar. [LAUGHS]
- What, this?
- Yeah.
Oh, no. I dress like this for you.
[LAUGHS]
Hey, what about tonight?
Should we go to Dana's,
- and, like, dress up?
- Oh, man.
I wouldn't even need a costume
for tonight. I'm, like,
halfway to Walking Dead extra.
Just missing some
blood here, some dirt
I was thinking it could be really fun
if we stay here and we do,
like, a scary movie marathon?
I know you haven't left my
house in two days, but
- Yeah.
- Yeah?
- Yeah, yeah.
- Oh, good.
- Okay, good, good.
- Yeah. Let's keep the zombie
off the streets. I
like the way you think.
Yes, because I have all these
great decorations,
and I thought this could
be kind of fun to, like,
- hang them all.
- Wow. [LAUGHS]
You're, like, a Halloween person.
Eh. I'm more like a girl who
steals things from work, but
- You're a thief. [LAUGHS]
- Yes, I'm a thief.
- Good morning. Oh. Okay.
- Morning breath.
Yeah, pumpkin-flavored.
Um, I was gonna make you
coffee 'cause I thought,
you know, you're sick
of making coffee.
- Yeah? Okay, good.
- Okay. Oh, that's really nice.
Thanks. Do you have
any contact solution?
[SIGHS]
Mama, do you want to
dress up for Halloween?
I found, I think it's Dorothy
from The Wizard of Oz
- Let me just finish her lip.
- [LAUGHS]
Okay, I see how it is.
Doesn't she look amazing? Look at this.
[TESS] You look phenomenal.
Yeah, there you go. Check that out. Huh?
[LAUGHS]
[TESS] I'm so happy to see that
you're still faithful to Dolly Parton.
Oh, she's my higher power.

Here, Mama. Let's get this on.
- [PATTY] What? For me?
- [TESS] Yeah.
[PATTY] But that's
not part of my costume.
[TESS] Well, you'll just
wear it for now, okay?
- How's that?
- Good.
[TESS] You know what?
How about we go for a walk
around the reservoir
before Gloria gets here?
Just you and me, Dolly. What do you say?
[PATTY] I say, "Get my pocketbook."
[SOUTHERN ACCENT] Okay, then, Mama.
I'll get your pocketbook.
It's right here.
[SHANE] Tess?
[TESS] Maybe we sit by the
water a little while, huh?
I'll see you later? We'll touch base?
Yes.
Bye.
You look just like the
real Dolly. [LAUGHS]
[PATTY] Oh, get out of here.
[MICAH] Okay, so I made
a whole list of questions
for your coworker and their partner,
so when we get there,
I kind of figure that
Ta-da.
- [SCOFFS] No.
- What?
No, I thought we nixed the avocado.
But you said you'd think about it.
Look, we're about to
meet the only trans,
- non-binary parents that we know.
- And?
And I don't want to
be there as an avocado.
I have questions about life insurance
- on the list.
- Except it's Halloween.
[MICAH SIGHS]
And I'm pretty sure their
family will be dressed up.
Okay, well, do you have
any other questions
that you want to add?
[SCOFFS] I mean, "Why is
my baby zaddy so fine?"
- [SIGHS] I'm serious, Maribel.
- [CHUCKLES]
- What?
- Okay, just
let me know if you
think of anything, okay?
And, uh, I'm sorry,
but it's a "no" on the
avocado. I love you, though.
- I do, I promise.
- No.
Come on, I need another half.

decided which work you want to use?
R. erica doyle's proxy.
Right, okay. So

that in a different medium.
You could do a movement piece,
a culinary work of art, a short film

[REESE] It's good to see
you out of the office.
[MARIBEL] Right?
But the publishing process just takes
so goddamn long that, by
the time my debut dropped,
I felt like a different writer,
and I can't even read it now, so
Yeah, I'm glad nobody else read it.
- Mm Mm.
- Stop.
- Yep.
- No. Stop.
[LAUGHS] I'm so sorry.
I'm, like, on chapter
six of the audio book.
Oh, my gosh. It's like you
are sniffing my dirty laundry.
- No.
- I love that for me.
[LAUGHS] No. What um
Um
I'm sorry. I don't
think I should be here.
- What?
- Yeah.
- No, no. It's okay.
- [SCOFFS]
Why'd you think I wanted to
go out on Halloween so bad?
I just thought you really
liked malt balls or something.
No, no, no, no. It is
because we can be us.
We're in disguise, and we're
gonna have a good night.
- [LAUGHS] Okay.
- Come on.

Hello?
- [DANI] Shane? No.
- [ROXY] What? She's fucking hot.
[DANI] Uh She-She's
got a serious girlfriend.
Yeah, she'd probably still
sleep with you anyway.
[ROXY] Oh, shit. I don't fuck with that.
[FINLEY] What are you
starting rumors for?
She's with Tess. They're,
like, fucking married.
Come here, Finn.
I just think that, the other day, I
[ROXY] What about her?
- I sort of, maybe, saw something and
- No way. Bullshit.
You're nuts. Hey, uh,
these are from the
folks over in the booth.
Let me know if you guys
need anything else, okay?
- Well, look at that.
- Oh.
- Cheers.
- Thank you.
Well, what am I? Fucking invisible?
- No. You're just not single.
- Mm.
Okay, but they don't know that.
[SIGHS] What's wrong with me?
[ROXY] Well, the costume's not great.
- [DANI] She's right.
- Oh, come on.
Are you kidding me right now?
Look at this shit right here.
Look at this gangster shit.
- [ROXY] Yeah, we're looking at it.
- [DANI] It's not good.
I am "raining cats and
dogs." Meow, ruff, ruff.
- Definitely not.
- No.
[SOPHIE] Really? Come on,
it's funny. I made this.
- Yeah, I can tell.
- Aw, fuck.
[ROXY] Look, you're hot,
but the costume's not.
Come with us. Let's-let's fix this.
All right. I spent
the whole day at Ross's
putting this together.
You know, in that section
where they got all
the crystals and stuff?
[DANI] That's clear. Less
clothing, less is more.
[SOPHIE] It's Halloween.
[LAUGHTER, CHATTER]
So, they actually
carried our first child.
- Can you hold?
- Yeah, it was totally unplanned.
[MAX] It was before Reese and I
were together. I was dating this
gay cis guy, and he was, like
- he turned out to be the worst.
- [SCOFFS] Yeah, no, I, uh
I dated one of those, too, so
And our middle two is
from my first marriage.
- The boring old hetero way.
- [MAX] And then we adopted Phoenix
from foster care last year.
- Hey, Phoenix?
- [PHOENIX] Yeah?
[MAX] Honey, will you come and eat some
- of this turkey jerky?
- Thank you, nibi.
She is gonna crash big-time.
Wait, so do they call you both nibi?
Or where did that come from?
Oh, no, no, no. So, I'm
dama and Max is nibi.
- [MARIBEL] That's so cute.
- [REESE] Yeah, we like it.
[MAX] Yeah, we just sort
of figured, you know,
- "dad" is just a sound.
- Mm.
I mean, the meaning is totally made up.
[MARIBEL] Aw, that's
really funny because,
for the longest time,
I thought "dad" was just
- a person my mom made up, so
- [REESE LAUGHS]
- Same, honey.
- [MARIBEL] Right?
But, baby girl,
you got to get rid of that
shit before the baby comes.
Trust me, it'll hit you
when you least expect it.
Yeah, wow, um
- That's a lot.
- Makes sense, though.
[MAX] Are you two in therapy?
Uh, yeah, I mean, I am,
and, uh, I'm a therapist as well,
so I kind of live in that world.
- Oh.
- Yeah, no, I do not.
[MAX] We just found it so helpful
to get on the same
page about everything.
You know, parenting
[REESE] And life. So much pops up,
so it's just so much easier
if you have the same
shared guiding principles.
Oh, we have one. [CHUCKLES]
- "Don't drop the baby."
- [REESE] Girl.
Obviously, don't drop the baby.
- You better quit playing. [LAUGHING]
- I'm not gonna drop the baby.
But, like, no, what happens if we do?
[MAX] I mean, generally,
they'll be all right.
[REESE] Yeah, they bounce
right back. [LAUGHS]
- [SCREAMING]
- [ANGIE LAUGHS]
- No, no, no, no, no, no.
- What?
Oh, my God. Calm down.
- What?
- You're screaming.
You're like [HIGH-PITCHED SCREAM]
Stop. You should've seen your face.
You were like, "Oh, my
God. Hold me, help me."
Why you looking at me?
- You just screamed
- [BOTH LAUGH]
I wasn't like that.
- [LAUGHS]
- Okay, you were squeezing my arm
so hard, I thought you were trying
- to take my blood pressure.
- No, I wasn't. [LAUGHS]
[BOTH LAUGHING]
Okay. Oh, my gosh.
Well, either way, I just have to say,
that was the most fun I've had

- Yeah?
Mm-hmm.
- Me, too.
- [LAUGHS]
- [BELLA] G!
- Oh, my God.
- Shit.

You play too much, acting like
you weren't gonna come see me.
Oh, my God, surprise.
- I'd never miss your first gig.
- Who's that guy you're kissing, hmm?
Oh, I don't know. Just
some guy I met in line.
- Oh.
- [CHUCKLES] Yeah.
Sorry.
Congratulations,
though. That's great.
- You know, I'll-I'll see you at home.
- Okay.
See ya.
Ugh, that was close. I
don't think she saw us.
[SIGHS]
Um
- I'm sorry. Um
- What?
Is something wrong?
Is it, like is it, like,
awkward, um
that I'm, like, your teacher?
No. 'Cause when we met, you weren't

I think I heard about
a block party in Venice.

want to go home with me?
To watch reruns of One Tree Hill or
