Cashmere Mafia (2008) s01e05 Episode Script
Stay with me
Previously on "cashmere mafia" - mia? - jason? Smart and powerful? I had to meet her.
I like being with you.
what are you gonna do, zoe, not go to your child's birthday party? I let you do what you wanna do with work.
Can't you do the same for me? If you're not into this, if you've had a change of heart- I haven'T.
I haven'T.
I'm sam, by the way.
I am the worst lesbian ever.
Word is that davis' fund has taken some big hits on mortgage-backed securities.
He really knows how to spread it around, doesn't he? This is not what it looks like.
Do you have any idea how foolish I feel right now? That's it.
We're done.
Hi.
What's going on? mommy! Mommy! There's a caterer here.
Oh, what time is it? Oh, he's early.
Tell him I'll be right down.
We're having a dinner tonight? Yeah, it's the chef we bought at the school auction.
- I told you.
- No.
No, you didn'T.
- I know I did.
- Okay, but, no, youidn'T.
Well, it's not a big deal.
It's just the girls more of a, "hey, come eat this food we overpaid for" thing.
We had to move it around so many times, the guy finally put his foot down.
could we, just for a minute, get in sync? I'm sorry.
I'm swamped.
This is the biggest deal I've been involved with in years.
- What do you want to do about thursday? - I don't know.
What's thursday? Our tenth wedding anniversary.
Yeah, of course it is.
look, I'm not husband of the year.
My assistant put it in my calendar for the week.
I'd love to stop the world, but I can'T.
Hey, maybe we could check in to a hot uptown for the night.
Well, I got a meeting in charleston I've been trying to move.
Okay, I'm gonna try and push things around when I get to work.
Okay.
dad! My hamster won't wake up.
- Dad! You gotta come now! - Right there, buddy! Okay, no more hamsters.
the poor kid's gonna get a complex.
I got it! thanks for coming to my office so how can i let you down today? Come on, davis.
How are you? Well, I'm living in a hotel, and I am lonely, and I'm homesick, and I'm still trying to understand how this punishment fits the crime.
The lying or the cheating? You look great, by the way.
Well, I don't feel great, if that's any consolation.
I'm telling everyone that it's just a trial separation, that we're not lawyered up, that we're hoping to work it out.
- What are you telling everyone? - The same.
So what did you want to see me about? They called from school.
Look at this.
Oh, boy.
Emily's Details We've spent so much time fighting, we've lost sight of our daughter.
They're suspending her for the rest of the week.
We're to meet with the headmaster when they get back from their washington trip tomorrow.
I really miss the ponytail and the braces right now.
What do you want to do? We need to be on the same page here.
Honestly? I think we should sell the apartment and move up to westchester- great schools, new friends for em, a real sense of high school community and a fresh start for all of us.
Davis, what do you want to do tomorrow? Moving to the suburbs isn't going to save our marriage.
Let's get her to give it another shot at chasen, and if she starts in on boarding school, we can revisit then.
excuse me a sec.
zoe, hi.
Lien, davis has a lot of your accounts with a team in private capital here.
I mean, do you want me to do some digging? Give her my best.
I'll see you tomorrow.
I want to know, and I don't want to know.
You have to know, and I have to run.
The zurich office is online.
- The work husband? - Yeah, the work husband.
I'll see you tonight.
- morning, nicholas.
- Good afternoon, zoe.
Have you see the latest demands from ellis? The guy's really something.
I know, I know.
He's famous for tinkering, right? how's the family? Fine, last I saw them.
I missed thomas' first soccer goal.
- Oh, did bettina get a picture? - Yes, and sent it to my phone.
It's tough on them.
It's tough on me.
I mean, the traveling, the hours how's your home life? I think I forgot to tell eric we're having a dinner party tonight.
oh, did you fess up? Eh, I pulled a nicholas and just dodged it.
There you go.
I can't expect him to understand.
I was like, you know, we walk around with all this stuff buzzing around in our heads, and then you throw in the jet lag and the long hours? I mean, it's a miracle that more doesn't fall through the cracks.
Well, you have me, and I have you to commiserate.
And it's really distracting when you do that straightening thing with the paperwork.
Just leave it! Do you know what my girlfriends call you? - what's that? - "The work husband.
" Well, there's an expression here the guys have- roughly translates to "desk mistress.
" - Well! - Yeah, but that's not us.
I mean, we've never actually met.
- Well, maybe someday we will.
- Not maybe.
I fly to new york tomorrow.
Really? That's great! We finally get a chance to meet.
can we just take it one at a time, people? Mia, my ad pages are up,my circulation is up, and clive keeps coming around and screaming at us like we're dogging it! He threw a water bottle at me when I refused to do a jennifer aniston cover.
She does fly off the newsstands.
It's a car magazine! I know that, warren.
Look, I hear all of you, but in clive's defense- there is no defense! Have you been on the receiving end lately? Look, clive's wife is out of town, so he tends to get a little- - clive! Hi.
We were just- - planning a mutiny? No, we were just having a little- - when is your interview with "the wall street journal"? - Friday.
Well, we need to go into your talking points.
Now-my office.
- So is jack gonna be here? - No.
- Any other old boyfriends? - No, just my closest girlfriends.
Anything else I need to know? it's a dinner, not a procedure.
Everything's a procedure.
Name one thing that's not.
- They're just, you know, they're just- - they are.
- Hi! - Hi! - Hey.
- Hello.
Jason chun, this is juliet and zoe and caitlin.
- Hi.
- Nice to meet you.
- You must be alicia.
- yeah.
- It's so nice to finally meet you.
- you, too.
nice to meet you.
There won't be any drinking, and I promise to have her home by 11:00.
I know exactly how you feel.
I mean, come on, we can't help it.
That bad? Hey, that's what friends are for, right? Uh, mia tells me you have a celebrity chef cooking for us tonight.
Yeah, luc richard.
We won him in an auction for the kids' school.
- Do you think he'd mind if I watched him work? - No! Um, I had a kitchen dinner at bella once and it was the most fascinating kind of operating theater.
He's just backhere.
- Back in a minute? - Okay.
- It smells so good in here.
- Mmm, I'm starving.
So? yes, he's terrific, and I like him.
But? He's a little intense in focus, and you want that in your brain surgeon, but as a date, I just get enough stress at work.
You need a tension tamer- no strings, no regrets, just sex for its own sake.
- Ah, she can't boil an egg without a tri-part global strategy.
- Yes, I can! That's true, but you need to get jack out of your system.
That's gonna require a tri-part global strategy there.
Could you guys excuse me for one second? - You okay, sweetie? - Yeah.
I'll be right back.
So what's on the menu tonight? Dirty martini, four olives, right? You're miss mason? Oh! Oh, call me mia.
Everybody, this is adam, our new,M "manny.
" It's all right.
It's okay.
- "manny.
" - "Manny.
" I know.
Mia, I want to show you something.
adam took this picture, and we're thinking of using it for our christmas card.
I was looking at that before.
- It's great, isn't it? - Oh, it's gat! Oh, my gosh.
- Mia's in publishing.
You don't mind, do you? - Not at all.
- Oh, please, you don't have to.
- No, of course.
- But thanks, zoe.
- Oh, well, it's a great picture.
- It's gorgeous.
- Thank you, guys.
- let me know if anyone needs anything, okay? - thanks, adam.
no problem.
Adam's cute.
- Did you get him at the school auction also? - yeah.
eric found him.
I had nothing to do with it.
Well, your husband's either a prince or an idiot.
- He's a prince.
- Yawn.
Where is he? - nicholas is coming to town.
- Ooh, work husband.
That's a first, isn't it? Thousands of e-mails and teleconferences, but we've never been in a room together.
- Now there's a marriage I could have made work.
- Oh, jules.
And I gotta say, when he to me, I got a little shiver.
should we be worried about you? She wouldn't actually do anything would you? No! Well, just 'cause good work husbands are so hard to find.
They're harder to find than real husbands.
Sometimes I wish I would've just kept jack as mine, you know? Okay, that's two jack references in two minutes.
I think you're over your limit, sister.
Yeah, you're right.
I hate to say this, but I just got paged.
- Oh, what does that mean? - I gotta go now.
- Oh, no.
- no, that's a shame.
- - - okay.
- Okay.
Xie xie.
- I'll call you in the morning? - - Ladies, I'm so sorry.
- Bye! - I have to run.
- no, nice to meet you.
- we'll see each other again? - Yeah, definitely.
- Nice to meet you.
- I'll eat a little extra for you.
Yeah.
Bye.
Oh, well.
- He is a bit intense.
- In two languages.
Well, maybe he's a cunning linguist.
By the way, that's not happening either.
oh, honey.
- tension tamer! - would you shut up? Oh, great, it's clive.
I just gotta take this.
I should probably check on alicia.
hello? Are you okay? It's my first night out as a separated woman.
- Emily's in trouble at school.
- Oh.
Bad? Acting out.
Davis' reaction was to sell the apartment, move to westchester, start over.
- What? - That would certainly raise some cash in a hurry.
I've never asked you, and you can tell me to butt out, but how is it that davis has control over your finances? I mean, you're a chief operating officer- I know.
It's just the way it always was.
Well, honey, I hope you understand, if he is draining your mutual accounts, there's nothing you can do about that until you get yourself a divorce attorney.
Just wouldn't be a party without me, now would it? yes, I- yes, that's done, clive.
And that's done, too.
Okay, good night.
Oh- yes, good night for now.
I didn't know how long you'd be out here, so made you a fresh one.
- Seems like you could use it.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- Okay.
- I'll take that for you.
- Okay, thank you.
Um, that was a really beautiful photograph you took.
Is that just a hobby? Actually, I got my B.
F.
A.
From R.
I.
S.
D.
I.
Oh, great.
But listen, zoe kind of put us on the spot there, you know? - Please don't feel any obligation- - no, I'd love to see your work.
I mean, you shouldn't feel any obligation either.
I'd really, really appreciate it.
Um, well, then I'll just give you my card, and you can call me.
Great.
I can't thank you enough.
- Well, I haven't done anything yet, so - right.
- Should we get back inside? - Yeah, all right.
- alicia? - In here.
Hey.
Did you have one of those mini crab cakes? 'Cause they tasted a little off to me.
No, it'S not that.
Sweetie I didn't want to tell you until I was 100% certain it was for real this time.
I'm pregnant.
How? A donor.
My ex and I had been trying for a while.
And after we split up, I was still in such a place of wanting a child I tried one last time.
aren't you gonna say something? Congratulations.

COM/BBS=- Ptoudly Presents CashmereMafia Season 1 Episode 5 ugh.
Grappa-never again.
Tell me about it.
Uh, so listen, about our anniversary- maybe we should just give each other presents.
Aren't there these traditional ones for each year? Yeah, actually, I looked it up.
Do you know what's customary for the tenth? What? Tin.
Well, I-I could get that new set of license plates you've been hinting about.
I miss her.
- What's that supposed to mean? - Nothing.
I just miss her- you, my old girlfriend.
Well, if I see her, I'll send your best.
I meant I miss us.
You don't think that I miss us, too? Let's not do this, okay? It's not as if the marriage gets annulled if we don't do a big thing.
- Well, can you move your meeting? - I'm working on it.
Suppose we brush our teeth and make that our gift to each other? Yeah.
Good idea.
people I am well aware that I've been on A short fuse lately.
Yes I'm stressed.
- Clive, we're all a little stressed.
- No, you're not, and that is part of the problem.
We are in a dying business, and you're floating around as through we're selling bloody iphones here! We've got issues going out this month that are skinnier than take-out menus.
Now go down to your offices and use your stress, use your fear and turn it around! First one to get a heart attack gets a bonus! Now go! Adam carter.
He says he met you at zoe's? Uh, yeah.
I'll take it.
Hi.
I figured that all you've been able to think about is,"when can I see adam's portfolio?" or, more importantly, adam? So you're a mind reader, too? - Zoe.
- Nicholas, hi! - You really do exist.
- It's so nice to finally meet you.
- Oh, I'M - sorry.
- And it's true what they say about you.
- What's that? You do have legs.
I've never seen below the table.
And they're lovelyegS.
I've been in europe for three years.
I'm allowed to say that.
Actually, you've been in switzerland, so you're supposed to remain neutral.
- How was your flight? - Bumpy.
Bumpy-just like this deal's about to get.
Oh, it can'T.
My youth's riding on it.
just want to say hi.
Nicholas, I'm katherine cutler.
That might not mean much to you,but most of the research on the donner deal was from my team.
Katherine, of course.
Vital contributions.
- Lovely to meet you.
- You, too.
- If you'll excuse us, please.
- Oh, oh, sorry.
Of course.
Well, if you need anything at all while you're here, I'm he for you, and, uh,that's a beautiful suit.
Thank you.
How many of the guys in the office has she been through? One that I know of.
How did you know? It's a type.
In our office, there's a claudia and a joelle.
Look, I was on the phone with my contacts at the european commission right up until takeoff.
- What do we need to rethink? - Practically everything.
Here are my notes from t flight.
thanks, guys it's good work getting better.
He says it's personal.
- Hi.
- Hi.
come on in.
it's fine.
Well, I was in the neighborhood, and I thought I would just see how the whole sexual confusion thing's working out for you.
Oh, always an adventure.
- Sam, right? - Yeah.
Last name? - It's morgan.
- Morgan.
How do I know that name? Uh, I'm the playwright.
A playwright.
You say "playwright" like you were saying "pedophile.
" Well, it's, you know, it's just sort of an awkward job description out here in the civilian world, so I loved "our lady of great neck.
" You're really good, - and you're kinda famous.
- Thank you, and not really, but, uh - how about dinner? - Alicia's on two.
Call her back.
Um, I will get lost if you say yes.
Uh, there's a dinner for tom stoppard at mike and diane's tonight.
It might be kinda fun.
I think you dropped a couple names there.
Thank you for noticing.
And be the invisible woman? I think I'll pass.
Uh, okay, then.
How about, um, tomorrow night, just, uh, you and me? Uh, my life is a little complicated right now.
Well, whose isn't? You still gotta eat.
I've met you for, like, a minute.
What is with the full-court press? Well, I mean, I came up here because I think you're cute And I'm still here because you called me on the name drop without even batting an eye.
Okay.
Dinner.
Tomorrow.
- Great.
- Great.
Okay.
Um, I'll get lost now.
That'd be good.
See ya.
Mm.
You smell really good.
it's ironic, don't you see? It's wholly inappropriate.
It doesn't matter what kind of spin you put on it- - come on! - Emily, stop.
It's a cliche of the chasen chick.
Do you really think I would put that up for real? I mean, come on.
That something a seventh grader would do.
What seventh grader? I'm sorry.
You know, I am.
Well, that's a great start.
But can I please go away to school? I'm dying here.
- Emily, chasen's as good as it gets.
- Not for me! You guys are all, "this is so inappropriate," but meanwhile, the head of student council's a total coke hound, and my math teacher's hooking up with the year abroad girl.
- We're talking about you.
- I'm not a bad kid! I'm not, and you know that, but I hate it here, and home is worse.
- Dad's been really busy and away- - come on, dad.
I know about you and brian's mom, cilla grey.
Don'T.
Please don'T.
It's okay.
I mean, it's not okay, but brian actually used it as a come-on to why we should hook up.
Welcome to my world.
I never would have known about it if I was at boarding school.
Please, mom.
I'm not like you.
I can't pretend everything's okay.
You're good.
Composition, capture, point of view- it's all here.
Thank you.
- Oh, is this your girlfriend? - She was.
She's beautiful.
And you made a very lovely naked couple.
Yeah, it's a little annie leibovitz john and yoko, - but you know, it gets a huge response.
- I bet.
oh, no, no.
No, no, not me.
I- you have the most incredible face.
You do.
there.
Beautiful.
circulation's about to start, and clive is sitting in.
Okay, I'll be right down.
- Well, I really appreciate, uh - cai keep this for a day? - I'd like to show it to our art directors.
- Really? Yeah, I'll let you know the moment I hear any feedback.
- Thanks.
You're awesome.
- Oh, that'S oh.
I'm awesome.
Okay.
Just give it to me.
- Can you hear me now? - ja.
Thank you.
Sure, we could come to you.
Zoe and I could take it to the new structure we're thinking we could revise a model along the lines with the U.
S.
Companies,trade pollution credits.
The workforce reductions could be unitized, - No, no, no.
We'll take care of it.
- and then moved around on the deal.
Hold on.
- Okay.
- What'd you give him? - You and I in person.
- He wants to work from his house in southampton.
- Starting when? Tomorrow.
Thursday.
Could go through the weekend.
I'd like to get it done by friday night, zurich time.
- Thursday's bad for me.
- Zoe, the E.
U.
Meets on monday.
I don't want currency fluctuations to barge in on us here.
I mean, the reason I flew out here was to get this deal done.
- Let me see what I can do.
- Good.
I'm not making a big thing out of it, but I moved a lot of people's schedules around to free the night.
We'll just celebrate this weekend.
Please, let's not fight about this.
Couldn't you have just picked up phone? I did as soon as I had a chance, but ever since nicholas got here, it's been nonstop.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Nicholas? The zurich guy? He's here? Yeah.
The client wanted him on hand.
Why? I don't know.
You talked about him enough.
I thought you would have mentioned it.
Well, I've been busy with a deal.
from miamason Got some feedback working late want to come by? Yeah.
Try thinking of me as a deal, okay? - I'm the deal that involves your kids, your home.
- Oh, please stop it.
You know, you might want to make sure this deal's gonna go through.
You're not a deal.
You're my husband.
yeah, and what we both need is a wife.
rock, paper, scissors shoot.
I win! Aw, man, you cheat.
You cheat.
Hey.
Can I, uh, take off after I get them ready for bed? - Uh, sure.
I'll take care of it.
- Thanks.
- Can we have the pillow fight tonight? - Uh, not tonight.
Baths, then bed.
you cannot have a pillow fight tonight.
Come on.
Let's go home.
are you guys ready again? Let's do this again.
- one, two, shoot.
- Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.
Ah! You lost again.
and the fashion guys responded to these, and they suggested more, - you know, attitude and edge.
- Gotcha, yeah.
when I say no, I mean, no, no, no, no, no, no! I guess that answer's "n" I thought he'd left, but, uh, you know I just can't work like this.
Relax a little bit.
there you go.
- Feels really gd.
- It's supposed to.
there is no way I will accept this level of incompetence, you bloody spid cow! I may be next, so you should really getoing.
Could I buy you a drink? Uh, you know, I'd love to, but I can't tonight.
Sometime? We'll see.
mia! Okay.
all right.
You should really go.
Not being difficult I just know what I want no point in holding on gotta keep on movin' if you can't do it I don't just want another faded story, baby untouchable, baby, I'm so untouchable so like, a month into it- my first real girl thing- she turns to me and goes, "I'm pregnant.
" - You don't see that coming.
- No, you do not, and isn't that something you share with someone before getting in a relationship with them? Well, I mean, did she just find out, or was she trying to hide it from you? She's, like, three months along.
And you didn't notice any weight gain or I thought it was, like, "I'm so in love" poundage.
There is nothing in the self-help section for this particular twist.
I'll tell you that right now.
Yeah, I don't think so.
And why am I telling you all this again? My shrink, um, is encouraging me to talk less and listen more and make real connections.
And how's that going for ya? I never realized what was out there until I just shut up.
Wow.
- You think? - I don't know.
You tell me.
Oh, just walking in-that is a producer I've been dodging because I am so behind on his script.
I really don't want to deal right now.
oh! Oh, god! - What, you owe him a script, too? - No, I just- we gotta get out of here.
Where's the exit? Um, I'm gonna leave my credit card on the table.
It won't be the first time I forgot it.
Where is he? Still by the front door.
Come on.
This way.
Come on.
Come on.
I can't believe I just did that.
- You think we got away with it? - I don't know.
Are we being followed? No.
- you're a lot of fun.
- Yeah? Yeah.
- No? - Yes.
Juliet, you have to get yourself a divorce attorney.
You can't stop him until you get an injunction.
I'm calling rafe gropman the moment we hang up, okay? Call me as soon as you reach him, and, uh, let's keep it anonymous for now.
Thanks, zoe.
Bye.
You said I had half an hour.
And you forgot to tell me you had lunch with alicia.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I brought sandwiches.
- Long night last night? - Yeah.
What you do? Uh, I went to dinner with a friend, and somehow I was overserved.
Look, um, I'm gonna leave you to your hangover.
I-I gotta run.
You just got here.
I went out to dinner with a friend, too, last night, only you already knew that because you saw me there.
His name is sam.
I met him at the shower.
I had too much to drink, and I slept with him.
why is it so hard for you to be straig with me? - No pun intended? - No jokes, caitlin.
Excuse me.
I like joking.
It saves the people I care about from hearing what I really think, like, I don't know, say somebody's trying to bust me for not being straight with them when meanwhile, she knew she was pregnant way before she let me in.
- All right.
- I mean, come on.
All right, all right.
Look, it's perfectly normal for you to do the going back and forth thing, and you throw in that I'm pregnant, and I'd have been shocked if you hadn'T.
waIt.
So now you're cool with it? I don't want to own you.
I just want to trust you.
And, no, I'm not cool with it.
I'm a little crushed, to tell you the truth.
And it also took me about an hour and a half to figure out what I was gonna wear to lunch with you, so look, I'm trying to find my way here.
Really, I am, and I can't tell you how much it means to me to have someone who's not cool about me.
I've never been here not really.
one last question.
What is it about chasen that compels you to make a change? Emily posted an extremely provocative picture of herself on her web page with the chasen flag visible in the background.
- Mom.
- It's all right, em.
Miss maris and I go way back.
Before she ran shelter rock, we were classmates there together.
Oh, my god.
Do your friends run everything? And I can tell you your mother was something of a rebel herself back in the day.
I'm pretty sure she still holds the record for suspensions and probations by a student who actually managed to graduate from our school.
Fiona, you're being too kind.
I'm sure I don't hold any record.
And you're being too modest, juliet.
I was there.
Not to get too far ahead, but welcome to shelter rock.
- Thanks for seeing us on such short notice.
- My pleasure.
I'll have the application sent out today.
- Nice to see you.
- Good-bye.
Fiona was the girl who, if the teacher asked for a 1-page essay, would raise her hand and ask if she could use both sides.
- You must have one.
- Millie stallings.
Fiona was our millie stallings.
And you were who, some kind of lindsay lohan? The point is, I wasn't so different from you.
Only I was trying to get my parents' attention from a long ways away.
So when did you turn into you? When I realized they were never going to take me back home and that I'd have to make my own way, so I taught myself some discipline.
and, em, all this brings back, well, me, at your age and how it was never the same with my mom once she dropped me off and drove away I'm sorry about what's happening between your father and me, but know I'd love for you to stay with me.
Why? Because I love you, and because I don't want to raise you by remote, hear about your day in a text message.
I'll think about it, mom.
I will.
Southampton, NY Zurich, it's the middle of the night there, so why don't you guys get some sleep, and, new york, why don't you run the currency fluctuation models in time for zurich when the commission wakes up, okay? - not again.
Come on.
- that's all right, zoe.
We'll do it.
Thank you.
- How about a little dinner and a nice bottle of wine? - Oh, that sounds wonderful.
- Uh, nicholas, can I ask you something? - Sure.
we came all the way out here for-my count- about six minutes of face time with ellis.
Was this his idea or yours? His.
You know, I have this journalist friend who's interviewed castro a couple of times, and he says, "the way to gain an audience is you wait, and you wait.
" And eventually, he will summon you, usually in the middle of the night.
" so there's no version of this where you, um arranged for us to be in the same hotel together for the night? If I had, would you be flattered or offended? I guess I'd be flattered.
I'm glad.
You still haven't answered my question.
Ellis insisted, and I would never inconvenience a colleague like that, no matter how much I found the idea compelling.
Fair enough? Fair enough.
Besides, if the rumors are true, I'm headed back to the new york office, and I definitely want you on my side.
That's great.
Congratulations.
Okay, I'm just gonna go and change, and we'll grab a bite to eat, okay? Wish we were there! Happy anniversary! I love you madly still! I'm sorry, nicholas.
I'm gonna have to take a rain check on that dinner.
Have another deal I need to attend to.
What? It's my wedding anniversary, and I want to surprise my husbandwith me.
I have to get back to the hospital.
Do you want me to drop you on the way? No, I just think I'll walk for a while.
Listen, I like youa lot.
I'm not good at casual, never pretended to be.
- You know? When I go, I like to go all the way out.
- Okay.
My life's not my own right now, but you know, it won't always be this way.
Well, I'm not ready for the next big thing, but it won't always be this way either.
So what do we do? Well, we just keep doing what we've been doing, you know? enjoy each other's company, take it slow.
And don't worry about your schedule.
When you go off to save somebody's life, I kinda feel like I'm lois lane dating superman.
It's fun.
So are you.
Good night, mia.
Adam1982: Still stressed? I'm home alone at Zoe's Come ove Taxi! I think we should nip this in the bud, because it's gonna get really I can't sleep.
Some of my friends from eighth grade are at the public school, and they really love it.
Do you want me to set up an interview? Mom, it's a public school.
You don't have to get in.
You just go.
Right.
Right.
I think we can take a tour.
Then let's do that.
Okay.
- What the hell?! - Zoe, it's not what it looks like! It is what it looks like, but you know, it's all my fault.
- Where's eric? - He went to go find you.
- He what? - Yeah,he drove out to southampton to be with you.
Zoe, it's me.
You must be eric.
And you must be nicholas.
What are you doing in my wife's room? Well, she got the bigger one, but she's gone.
- Where is she? - She went back to new york to be with you.
W- excuse me.
Zoe? Tell you what.
You stay put right there, and I'll be out as soon as I can, okay? Bye.
- We're heading back out to southampton.
- Yes, ma'am.
- Zoe, we should just- - well, you and i need to deal with this.
Yeah, maybe when we're both a little- calm down a little.
- Yeah, I think that's probably- - yeah.
Sounds like a plan.
- Happy anniversary.
- Thanks.
Southamptom,NY With two minutes to spare.
Happy anniversary.
They just called from the lobby.
The reporter from the "journal" is on his way up.
Okay, great.
Thanks, tracy.
- I've got a couple more thoughts for you.
- Clive, he's on his way up.
He can wait.
He's a newspaper reporter.
It's what they do.
The success of our overseas partnerships, the growing profits of our web sites, the flight to quality for our fashion and shelter books- clive, I could do this in my sleep.
What's gotten into you this morning - when does mrs.
Hughes get back? - W-why do you ask that? Just a concerned colleague.
Well, she's coming back today, in fact.
- That is great news.
- Why is that? Because, clive-and I mean this with all due respect- you really need to get laid.
Tracy, you can send him in now.
If it does continue, uh, all encounters have to take place outside of my home - of course.
- Weekend nights to be cleared ateast a week in advance.
Yeah, it's not like we're even dating.
Zoe, made a huge mistake.
Oh, well, you know, we all make mistakes.
Okay, so I slept with a guy on the first date, and alicia's pregnant.
- What? - Okay, we need to have a talk about the birds and the bees, okay? - That came out wrong.
- We've heard the first part a thousand times.
- So tell us about what happened.
- With a man? Yeah, with a man.
Of course with a man.
Well, not a man like that.
A friend, a donor.
it's not funny.
I feel like a train wreck, and I don't feel like joking my way around it, and I can't be all neat about it like juliet can, and I just need that to be all right with you, okay? Of course it is.
I know there's a lot to say, and I got plenty, but this just feels so good- right here like this.
- we're late.
- We're late.
- - - It's only fair we're there for your divorce.
- Strength in numbers.
Rafe is the mo dangerous shark in new york.
You couldn't be in better hands.
hi.
oh, zoe! Oh, good to see you.
Ah, you, too.
- How are the folks? - they're great.
They send their best.
Well, I don't give group rates, you know.
rafe gropman, juliet draper.
Juliet, it's nice to meet you.
Is, uh, draper- is that your married name or your maiden name? It's my married name.
- Is davis your husband? - Yes.
I'm sorry.
I can't have this conversation with you.
Juliet, it seems that davis has already retained mr.
Gropman.
Oh.
Would you, uh does anyone here need a tissue? Thank you for your time, mr.
Gropman.
Good luck representing my husband.
I'll be seeing you.
I like being with you.
what are you gonna do, zoe, not go to your child's birthday party? I let you do what you wanna do with work.
Can't you do the same for me? If you're not into this, if you've had a change of heart- I haven'T.
I haven'T.
I'm sam, by the way.
I am the worst lesbian ever.
Word is that davis' fund has taken some big hits on mortgage-backed securities.
He really knows how to spread it around, doesn't he? This is not what it looks like.
Do you have any idea how foolish I feel right now? That's it.
We're done.
Hi.
What's going on? mommy! Mommy! There's a caterer here.
Oh, what time is it? Oh, he's early.
Tell him I'll be right down.
We're having a dinner tonight? Yeah, it's the chef we bought at the school auction.
- I told you.
- No.
No, you didn'T.
- I know I did.
- Okay, but, no, youidn'T.
Well, it's not a big deal.
It's just the girls more of a, "hey, come eat this food we overpaid for" thing.
We had to move it around so many times, the guy finally put his foot down.
could we, just for a minute, get in sync? I'm sorry.
I'm swamped.
This is the biggest deal I've been involved with in years.
- What do you want to do about thursday? - I don't know.
What's thursday? Our tenth wedding anniversary.
Yeah, of course it is.
look, I'm not husband of the year.
My assistant put it in my calendar for the week.
I'd love to stop the world, but I can'T.
Hey, maybe we could check in to a hot uptown for the night.
Well, I got a meeting in charleston I've been trying to move.
Okay, I'm gonna try and push things around when I get to work.
Okay.
dad! My hamster won't wake up.
- Dad! You gotta come now! - Right there, buddy! Okay, no more hamsters.
the poor kid's gonna get a complex.
I got it! thanks for coming to my office so how can i let you down today? Come on, davis.
How are you? Well, I'm living in a hotel, and I am lonely, and I'm homesick, and I'm still trying to understand how this punishment fits the crime.
The lying or the cheating? You look great, by the way.
Well, I don't feel great, if that's any consolation.
I'm telling everyone that it's just a trial separation, that we're not lawyered up, that we're hoping to work it out.
- What are you telling everyone? - The same.
So what did you want to see me about? They called from school.
Look at this.
Oh, boy.
Emily's Details We've spent so much time fighting, we've lost sight of our daughter.
They're suspending her for the rest of the week.
We're to meet with the headmaster when they get back from their washington trip tomorrow.
I really miss the ponytail and the braces right now.
What do you want to do? We need to be on the same page here.
Honestly? I think we should sell the apartment and move up to westchester- great schools, new friends for em, a real sense of high school community and a fresh start for all of us.
Davis, what do you want to do tomorrow? Moving to the suburbs isn't going to save our marriage.
Let's get her to give it another shot at chasen, and if she starts in on boarding school, we can revisit then.
excuse me a sec.
zoe, hi.
Lien, davis has a lot of your accounts with a team in private capital here.
I mean, do you want me to do some digging? Give her my best.
I'll see you tomorrow.
I want to know, and I don't want to know.
You have to know, and I have to run.
The zurich office is online.
- The work husband? - Yeah, the work husband.
I'll see you tonight.
- morning, nicholas.
- Good afternoon, zoe.
Have you see the latest demands from ellis? The guy's really something.
I know, I know.
He's famous for tinkering, right? how's the family? Fine, last I saw them.
I missed thomas' first soccer goal.
- Oh, did bettina get a picture? - Yes, and sent it to my phone.
It's tough on them.
It's tough on me.
I mean, the traveling, the hours how's your home life? I think I forgot to tell eric we're having a dinner party tonight.
oh, did you fess up? Eh, I pulled a nicholas and just dodged it.
There you go.
I can't expect him to understand.
I was like, you know, we walk around with all this stuff buzzing around in our heads, and then you throw in the jet lag and the long hours? I mean, it's a miracle that more doesn't fall through the cracks.
Well, you have me, and I have you to commiserate.
And it's really distracting when you do that straightening thing with the paperwork.
Just leave it! Do you know what my girlfriends call you? - what's that? - "The work husband.
" Well, there's an expression here the guys have- roughly translates to "desk mistress.
" - Well! - Yeah, but that's not us.
I mean, we've never actually met.
- Well, maybe someday we will.
- Not maybe.
I fly to new york tomorrow.
Really? That's great! We finally get a chance to meet.
can we just take it one at a time, people? Mia, my ad pages are up,my circulation is up, and clive keeps coming around and screaming at us like we're dogging it! He threw a water bottle at me when I refused to do a jennifer aniston cover.
She does fly off the newsstands.
It's a car magazine! I know that, warren.
Look, I hear all of you, but in clive's defense- there is no defense! Have you been on the receiving end lately? Look, clive's wife is out of town, so he tends to get a little- - clive! Hi.
We were just- - planning a mutiny? No, we were just having a little- - when is your interview with "the wall street journal"? - Friday.
Well, we need to go into your talking points.
Now-my office.
- So is jack gonna be here? - No.
- Any other old boyfriends? - No, just my closest girlfriends.
Anything else I need to know? it's a dinner, not a procedure.
Everything's a procedure.
Name one thing that's not.
- They're just, you know, they're just- - they are.
- Hi! - Hi! - Hey.
- Hello.
Jason chun, this is juliet and zoe and caitlin.
- Hi.
- Nice to meet you.
- You must be alicia.
- yeah.
- It's so nice to finally meet you.
- you, too.
nice to meet you.
There won't be any drinking, and I promise to have her home by 11:00.
I know exactly how you feel.
I mean, come on, we can't help it.
That bad? Hey, that's what friends are for, right? Uh, mia tells me you have a celebrity chef cooking for us tonight.
Yeah, luc richard.
We won him in an auction for the kids' school.
- Do you think he'd mind if I watched him work? - No! Um, I had a kitchen dinner at bella once and it was the most fascinating kind of operating theater.
He's just backhere.
- Back in a minute? - Okay.
- It smells so good in here.
- Mmm, I'm starving.
So? yes, he's terrific, and I like him.
But? He's a little intense in focus, and you want that in your brain surgeon, but as a date, I just get enough stress at work.
You need a tension tamer- no strings, no regrets, just sex for its own sake.
- Ah, she can't boil an egg without a tri-part global strategy.
- Yes, I can! That's true, but you need to get jack out of your system.
That's gonna require a tri-part global strategy there.
Could you guys excuse me for one second? - You okay, sweetie? - Yeah.
I'll be right back.
So what's on the menu tonight? Dirty martini, four olives, right? You're miss mason? Oh! Oh, call me mia.
Everybody, this is adam, our new,M "manny.
" It's all right.
It's okay.
- "manny.
" - "Manny.
" I know.
Mia, I want to show you something.
adam took this picture, and we're thinking of using it for our christmas card.
I was looking at that before.
- It's great, isn't it? - Oh, it's gat! Oh, my gosh.
- Mia's in publishing.
You don't mind, do you? - Not at all.
- Oh, please, you don't have to.
- No, of course.
- But thanks, zoe.
- Oh, well, it's a great picture.
- It's gorgeous.
- Thank you, guys.
- let me know if anyone needs anything, okay? - thanks, adam.
no problem.
Adam's cute.
- Did you get him at the school auction also? - yeah.
eric found him.
I had nothing to do with it.
Well, your husband's either a prince or an idiot.
- He's a prince.
- Yawn.
Where is he? - nicholas is coming to town.
- Ooh, work husband.
That's a first, isn't it? Thousands of e-mails and teleconferences, but we've never been in a room together.
- Now there's a marriage I could have made work.
- Oh, jules.
And I gotta say, when he to me, I got a little shiver.
should we be worried about you? She wouldn't actually do anything would you? No! Well, just 'cause good work husbands are so hard to find.
They're harder to find than real husbands.
Sometimes I wish I would've just kept jack as mine, you know? Okay, that's two jack references in two minutes.
I think you're over your limit, sister.
Yeah, you're right.
I hate to say this, but I just got paged.
- Oh, what does that mean? - I gotta go now.
- Oh, no.
- no, that's a shame.
- - - okay.
- Okay.
Xie xie.
- I'll call you in the morning? - - Ladies, I'm so sorry.
- Bye! - I have to run.
- no, nice to meet you.
- we'll see each other again? - Yeah, definitely.
- Nice to meet you.
- I'll eat a little extra for you.
Yeah.
Bye.
Oh, well.
- He is a bit intense.
- In two languages.
Well, maybe he's a cunning linguist.
By the way, that's not happening either.
oh, honey.
- tension tamer! - would you shut up? Oh, great, it's clive.
I just gotta take this.
I should probably check on alicia.
hello? Are you okay? It's my first night out as a separated woman.
- Emily's in trouble at school.
- Oh.
Bad? Acting out.
Davis' reaction was to sell the apartment, move to westchester, start over.
- What? - That would certainly raise some cash in a hurry.
I've never asked you, and you can tell me to butt out, but how is it that davis has control over your finances? I mean, you're a chief operating officer- I know.
It's just the way it always was.
Well, honey, I hope you understand, if he is draining your mutual accounts, there's nothing you can do about that until you get yourself a divorce attorney.
Just wouldn't be a party without me, now would it? yes, I- yes, that's done, clive.
And that's done, too.
Okay, good night.
Oh- yes, good night for now.
I didn't know how long you'd be out here, so made you a fresh one.
- Seems like you could use it.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
- Okay.
- I'll take that for you.
- Okay, thank you.
Um, that was a really beautiful photograph you took.
Is that just a hobby? Actually, I got my B.
F.
A.
From R.
I.
S.
D.
I.
Oh, great.
But listen, zoe kind of put us on the spot there, you know? - Please don't feel any obligation- - no, I'd love to see your work.
I mean, you shouldn't feel any obligation either.
I'd really, really appreciate it.
Um, well, then I'll just give you my card, and you can call me.
Great.
I can't thank you enough.
- Well, I haven't done anything yet, so - right.
- Should we get back inside? - Yeah, all right.
- alicia? - In here.
Hey.
Did you have one of those mini crab cakes? 'Cause they tasted a little off to me.
No, it'S not that.
Sweetie I didn't want to tell you until I was 100% certain it was for real this time.
I'm pregnant.
How? A donor.
My ex and I had been trying for a while.
And after we split up, I was still in such a place of wanting a child I tried one last time.
aren't you gonna say something? Congratulations.
- =WWW.
YDY.
COM/BBS=- Ptoudly Presents CashmereMafia Season 1 Episode 5 ugh.
Grappa-never again.
Tell me about it.
Uh, so listen, about our anniversary- maybe we should just give each other presents.
Aren't there these traditional ones for each year? Yeah, actually, I looked it up.
Do you know what's customary for the tenth? What? Tin.
Well, I-I could get that new set of license plates you've been hinting about.
I miss her.
- What's that supposed to mean? - Nothing.
I just miss her- you, my old girlfriend.
Well, if I see her, I'll send your best.
I meant I miss us.
You don't think that I miss us, too? Let's not do this, okay? It's not as if the marriage gets annulled if we don't do a big thing.
- Well, can you move your meeting? - I'm working on it.
Suppose we brush our teeth and make that our gift to each other? Yeah.
Good idea.
people I am well aware that I've been on A short fuse lately.
Yes I'm stressed.
- Clive, we're all a little stressed.
- No, you're not, and that is part of the problem.
We are in a dying business, and you're floating around as through we're selling bloody iphones here! We've got issues going out this month that are skinnier than take-out menus.
Now go down to your offices and use your stress, use your fear and turn it around! First one to get a heart attack gets a bonus! Now go! Adam carter.
He says he met you at zoe's? Uh, yeah.
I'll take it.
Hi.
I figured that all you've been able to think about is,"when can I see adam's portfolio?" or, more importantly, adam? So you're a mind reader, too? - Zoe.
- Nicholas, hi! - You really do exist.
- It's so nice to finally meet you.
- Oh, I'M - sorry.
- And it's true what they say about you.
- What's that? You do have legs.
I've never seen below the table.
And they're lovelyegS.
I've been in europe for three years.
I'm allowed to say that.
Actually, you've been in switzerland, so you're supposed to remain neutral.
- How was your flight? - Bumpy.
Bumpy-just like this deal's about to get.
Oh, it can'T.
My youth's riding on it.
just want to say hi.
Nicholas, I'm katherine cutler.
That might not mean much to you,but most of the research on the donner deal was from my team.
Katherine, of course.
Vital contributions.
- Lovely to meet you.
- You, too.
- If you'll excuse us, please.
- Oh, oh, sorry.
Of course.
Well, if you need anything at all while you're here, I'm he for you, and, uh,that's a beautiful suit.
Thank you.
How many of the guys in the office has she been through? One that I know of.
How did you know? It's a type.
In our office, there's a claudia and a joelle.
Look, I was on the phone with my contacts at the european commission right up until takeoff.
- What do we need to rethink? - Practically everything.
Here are my notes from t flight.
thanks, guys it's good work getting better.
He says it's personal.
- Hi.
- Hi.
come on in.
it's fine.
Well, I was in the neighborhood, and I thought I would just see how the whole sexual confusion thing's working out for you.
Oh, always an adventure.
- Sam, right? - Yeah.
Last name? - It's morgan.
- Morgan.
How do I know that name? Uh, I'm the playwright.
A playwright.
You say "playwright" like you were saying "pedophile.
" Well, it's, you know, it's just sort of an awkward job description out here in the civilian world, so I loved "our lady of great neck.
" You're really good, - and you're kinda famous.
- Thank you, and not really, but, uh - how about dinner? - Alicia's on two.
Call her back.
Um, I will get lost if you say yes.
Uh, there's a dinner for tom stoppard at mike and diane's tonight.
It might be kinda fun.
I think you dropped a couple names there.
Thank you for noticing.
And be the invisible woman? I think I'll pass.
Uh, okay, then.
How about, um, tomorrow night, just, uh, you and me? Uh, my life is a little complicated right now.
Well, whose isn't? You still gotta eat.
I've met you for, like, a minute.
What is with the full-court press? Well, I mean, I came up here because I think you're cute And I'm still here because you called me on the name drop without even batting an eye.
Okay.
Dinner.
Tomorrow.
- Great.
- Great.
Okay.
Um, I'll get lost now.
That'd be good.
See ya.
Mm.
You smell really good.
it's ironic, don't you see? It's wholly inappropriate.
It doesn't matter what kind of spin you put on it- - come on! - Emily, stop.
It's a cliche of the chasen chick.
Do you really think I would put that up for real? I mean, come on.
That something a seventh grader would do.
What seventh grader? I'm sorry.
You know, I am.
Well, that's a great start.
But can I please go away to school? I'm dying here.
- Emily, chasen's as good as it gets.
- Not for me! You guys are all, "this is so inappropriate," but meanwhile, the head of student council's a total coke hound, and my math teacher's hooking up with the year abroad girl.
- We're talking about you.
- I'm not a bad kid! I'm not, and you know that, but I hate it here, and home is worse.
- Dad's been really busy and away- - come on, dad.
I know about you and brian's mom, cilla grey.
Don'T.
Please don'T.
It's okay.
I mean, it's not okay, but brian actually used it as a come-on to why we should hook up.
Welcome to my world.
I never would have known about it if I was at boarding school.
Please, mom.
I'm not like you.
I can't pretend everything's okay.
You're good.
Composition, capture, point of view- it's all here.
Thank you.
- Oh, is this your girlfriend? - She was.
She's beautiful.
And you made a very lovely naked couple.
Yeah, it's a little annie leibovitz john and yoko, - but you know, it gets a huge response.
- I bet.
oh, no, no.
No, no, not me.
I- you have the most incredible face.
You do.
there.
Beautiful.
circulation's about to start, and clive is sitting in.
Okay, I'll be right down.
- Well, I really appreciate, uh - cai keep this for a day? - I'd like to show it to our art directors.
- Really? Yeah, I'll let you know the moment I hear any feedback.
- Thanks.
You're awesome.
- Oh, that'S oh.
I'm awesome.
Okay.
Just give it to me.
- Can you hear me now? - ja.
Thank you.
Sure, we could come to you.
Zoe and I could take it to the new structure we're thinking we could revise a model along the lines with the U.
S.
Companies,trade pollution credits.
The workforce reductions could be unitized, - No, no, no.
We'll take care of it.
- and then moved around on the deal.
Hold on.
- Okay.
- What'd you give him? - You and I in person.
- He wants to work from his house in southampton.
- Starting when? Tomorrow.
Thursday.
Could go through the weekend.
I'd like to get it done by friday night, zurich time.
- Thursday's bad for me.
- Zoe, the E.
U.
Meets on monday.
I don't want currency fluctuations to barge in on us here.
I mean, the reason I flew out here was to get this deal done.
- Let me see what I can do.
- Good.
I'm not making a big thing out of it, but I moved a lot of people's schedules around to free the night.
We'll just celebrate this weekend.
Please, let's not fight about this.
Couldn't you have just picked up phone? I did as soon as I had a chance, but ever since nicholas got here, it's been nonstop.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Nicholas? The zurich guy? He's here? Yeah.
The client wanted him on hand.
Why? I don't know.
You talked about him enough.
I thought you would have mentioned it.
Well, I've been busy with a deal.
from miamason Got some feedback working late want to come by? Yeah.
Try thinking of me as a deal, okay? - I'm the deal that involves your kids, your home.
- Oh, please stop it.
You know, you might want to make sure this deal's gonna go through.
You're not a deal.
You're my husband.
yeah, and what we both need is a wife.
rock, paper, scissors shoot.
I win! Aw, man, you cheat.
You cheat.
Hey.
Can I, uh, take off after I get them ready for bed? - Uh, sure.
I'll take care of it.
- Thanks.
- Can we have the pillow fight tonight? - Uh, not tonight.
Baths, then bed.
you cannot have a pillow fight tonight.
Come on.
Let's go home.
are you guys ready again? Let's do this again.
- one, two, shoot.
- Rock, paper, scissors, shoot.
Ah! You lost again.
and the fashion guys responded to these, and they suggested more, - you know, attitude and edge.
- Gotcha, yeah.
when I say no, I mean, no, no, no, no, no, no! I guess that answer's "n" I thought he'd left, but, uh, you know I just can't work like this.
Relax a little bit.
there you go.
- Feels really gd.
- It's supposed to.
there is no way I will accept this level of incompetence, you bloody spid cow! I may be next, so you should really getoing.
Could I buy you a drink? Uh, you know, I'd love to, but I can't tonight.
Sometime? We'll see.
mia! Okay.
all right.
You should really go.
Not being difficult I just know what I want no point in holding on gotta keep on movin' if you can't do it I don't just want another faded story, baby untouchable, baby, I'm so untouchable so like, a month into it- my first real girl thing- she turns to me and goes, "I'm pregnant.
" - You don't see that coming.
- No, you do not, and isn't that something you share with someone before getting in a relationship with them? Well, I mean, did she just find out, or was she trying to hide it from you? She's, like, three months along.
And you didn't notice any weight gain or I thought it was, like, "I'm so in love" poundage.
There is nothing in the self-help section for this particular twist.
I'll tell you that right now.
Yeah, I don't think so.
And why am I telling you all this again? My shrink, um, is encouraging me to talk less and listen more and make real connections.
And how's that going for ya? I never realized what was out there until I just shut up.
Wow.
- You think? - I don't know.
You tell me.
Oh, just walking in-that is a producer I've been dodging because I am so behind on his script.
I really don't want to deal right now.
oh! Oh, god! - What, you owe him a script, too? - No, I just- we gotta get out of here.
Where's the exit? Um, I'm gonna leave my credit card on the table.
It won't be the first time I forgot it.
Where is he? Still by the front door.
Come on.
This way.
Come on.
Come on.
I can't believe I just did that.
- You think we got away with it? - I don't know.
Are we being followed? No.
- you're a lot of fun.
- Yeah? Yeah.
- No? - Yes.
Juliet, you have to get yourself a divorce attorney.
You can't stop him until you get an injunction.
I'm calling rafe gropman the moment we hang up, okay? Call me as soon as you reach him, and, uh, let's keep it anonymous for now.
Thanks, zoe.
Bye.
You said I had half an hour.
And you forgot to tell me you had lunch with alicia.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I brought sandwiches.
- Long night last night? - Yeah.
What you do? Uh, I went to dinner with a friend, and somehow I was overserved.
Look, um, I'm gonna leave you to your hangover.
I-I gotta run.
You just got here.
I went out to dinner with a friend, too, last night, only you already knew that because you saw me there.
His name is sam.
I met him at the shower.
I had too much to drink, and I slept with him.
why is it so hard for you to be straig with me? - No pun intended? - No jokes, caitlin.
Excuse me.
I like joking.
It saves the people I care about from hearing what I really think, like, I don't know, say somebody's trying to bust me for not being straight with them when meanwhile, she knew she was pregnant way before she let me in.
- All right.
- I mean, come on.
All right, all right.
Look, it's perfectly normal for you to do the going back and forth thing, and you throw in that I'm pregnant, and I'd have been shocked if you hadn'T.
waIt.
So now you're cool with it? I don't want to own you.
I just want to trust you.
And, no, I'm not cool with it.
I'm a little crushed, to tell you the truth.
And it also took me about an hour and a half to figure out what I was gonna wear to lunch with you, so look, I'm trying to find my way here.
Really, I am, and I can't tell you how much it means to me to have someone who's not cool about me.
I've never been here not really.
one last question.
What is it about chasen that compels you to make a change? Emily posted an extremely provocative picture of herself on her web page with the chasen flag visible in the background.
- Mom.
- It's all right, em.
Miss maris and I go way back.
Before she ran shelter rock, we were classmates there together.
Oh, my god.
Do your friends run everything? And I can tell you your mother was something of a rebel herself back in the day.
I'm pretty sure she still holds the record for suspensions and probations by a student who actually managed to graduate from our school.
Fiona, you're being too kind.
I'm sure I don't hold any record.
And you're being too modest, juliet.
I was there.
Not to get too far ahead, but welcome to shelter rock.
- Thanks for seeing us on such short notice.
- My pleasure.
I'll have the application sent out today.
- Nice to see you.
- Good-bye.
Fiona was the girl who, if the teacher asked for a 1-page essay, would raise her hand and ask if she could use both sides.
- You must have one.
- Millie stallings.
Fiona was our millie stallings.
And you were who, some kind of lindsay lohan? The point is, I wasn't so different from you.
Only I was trying to get my parents' attention from a long ways away.
So when did you turn into you? When I realized they were never going to take me back home and that I'd have to make my own way, so I taught myself some discipline.
and, em, all this brings back, well, me, at your age and how it was never the same with my mom once she dropped me off and drove away I'm sorry about what's happening between your father and me, but know I'd love for you to stay with me.
Why? Because I love you, and because I don't want to raise you by remote, hear about your day in a text message.
I'll think about it, mom.
I will.
Southampton, NY Zurich, it's the middle of the night there, so why don't you guys get some sleep, and, new york, why don't you run the currency fluctuation models in time for zurich when the commission wakes up, okay? - not again.
Come on.
- that's all right, zoe.
We'll do it.
Thank you.
- How about a little dinner and a nice bottle of wine? - Oh, that sounds wonderful.
- Uh, nicholas, can I ask you something? - Sure.
we came all the way out here for-my count- about six minutes of face time with ellis.
Was this his idea or yours? His.
You know, I have this journalist friend who's interviewed castro a couple of times, and he says, "the way to gain an audience is you wait, and you wait.
" And eventually, he will summon you, usually in the middle of the night.
" so there's no version of this where you, um arranged for us to be in the same hotel together for the night? If I had, would you be flattered or offended? I guess I'd be flattered.
I'm glad.
You still haven't answered my question.
Ellis insisted, and I would never inconvenience a colleague like that, no matter how much I found the idea compelling.
Fair enough? Fair enough.
Besides, if the rumors are true, I'm headed back to the new york office, and I definitely want you on my side.
That's great.
Congratulations.
Okay, I'm just gonna go and change, and we'll grab a bite to eat, okay? Wish we were there! Happy anniversary! I love you madly still! I'm sorry, nicholas.
I'm gonna have to take a rain check on that dinner.
Have another deal I need to attend to.
What? It's my wedding anniversary, and I want to surprise my husbandwith me.
I have to get back to the hospital.
Do you want me to drop you on the way? No, I just think I'll walk for a while.
Listen, I like youa lot.
I'm not good at casual, never pretended to be.
- You know? When I go, I like to go all the way out.
- Okay.
My life's not my own right now, but you know, it won't always be this way.
Well, I'm not ready for the next big thing, but it won't always be this way either.
So what do we do? Well, we just keep doing what we've been doing, you know? enjoy each other's company, take it slow.
And don't worry about your schedule.
When you go off to save somebody's life, I kinda feel like I'm lois lane dating superman.
It's fun.
So are you.
Good night, mia.

They just called from the lobby.
The reporter from the "journal" is on his way up.
Okay, great.
Thanks, tracy.
- I've got a couple more thoughts for you.
- Clive, he's on his way up.
He can wait.
He's a newspaper reporter.
It's what they do.
The success of our overseas partnerships, the growing profits of our web sites, the flight to quality for our fashion and shelter books- clive, I could do this in my sleep.
What's gotten into you this morning - when does mrs.

Well, she's coming back today, in fact.

- We've heard the first part a thousand times.
- So tell us about what happened.
- With a man? Yeah, with a man.
Of course with a man.
Well, not a man like that.
A friend, a donor.
it's not funny.
I feel like a train wreck, and I don't feel like joking my way around it, and I can't be all neat about it like juliet can, and I just need that to be all right with you, okay? Of course it is.
I know there's a lot to say, and I got plenty, but this just feels so good- right here like this.
