Pollination
1
Previously on "Grosse
Pointe Garden Society"
My friends and I sort
of murdered someone.
What are we gonna do about their car?
Look, if you're trying
to fix things with Doug,
hanging out with me
so much isn't helping.
He just doesn't get
that we're not into
each other like that.
- Come on, it would never happen.
- Right. Right.
Um
Want to buy me a cup of coffee?
Why is she still here?
You guys are friends now?
- Could get messy.
- Yeah.
I didn't say messy can't be fun.
- Is it over?
- Yes, of course.
- I forgive you.
- How can you do that?
Because you're my ride-or-die.
- Is Gary here?
- God, no. It's over.
I ended it.
- Whoa! Hey!
- [TIRES SQUEAL]
I'm worried something bad happened.
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING] Is Gary here?
I haven't heard from him in days.
I'm worried something bad happened.
Remember that family in Royal Oak
went to bed on Christmas
and didn't wake up?
Mm-hmm.
Well, it wouldn't have happened
if Santa had brought them one of these.
Mm-hmm.
You okay?
- Yeah.
- [CELL PHONE CHIMES]
Still up for it?
Yes.
[MAXIMUM BALLOON'S "YOUNG LOVE"]
- [MUSIC STOPS]
- Ooh. Oops!
Um, sorry. Whitening strip.
- Oh.
- [CHUCKLES] Okay.
Young love ♪
- [MUSIC STOPS]
- Oh, wait. Um
[SCOFFS, SIGHS]
Too much red onion in the salad.
Yeah.
Just follow the beat ♪
- Gary might be dead.
- Boner killer.
His wife hasn't heard from him in days.
The guy's probably just laying low.
- [BREATHING HEAVILY]
- [ENGINE REVVING]
What if he hurt himself?
More like he bought
a first-class ticket to an island,
and he's laying on the
beach pounding mai tais.
[TIRES SCREECH]
[GROANS, SHOUTS]
I just feel like this is all my fault.
You know, the more you talk
about this, the hotter it gets.
Sorry.
Look, I want to make this work,
but we got to get this
guy out of our bed.
[TIRES SQUEALING]
[BREATHING HEAVILY]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
[BIRDS CHIRPING]
So, apparently, I can't just
give Ford a bunch of money.
It has to go through this
whole endowment thing
- that my ex-husband set up.
- Mm.
Who knew you needed a college degree
to understand a college scholarship?
Don't look at me.
Hey, I just played
football at Kalamazoo.
How'd you go from that to cop?
Well, I blew out my shoulder
and tried to get into the FBI.
But I lied on my polygraph.
Oh.
- About what?
- [LAUGHS]
Yeah, no, we are not
good enough friends yet.
- Come on. Who'd you kill?
- Nope.
Arson. It's in your eyes.
- You like to burn things.
- [LAUGHS]
[CLEARS THROAT]
Only if you tell me about your ex.
Fine. Which one?
- Well, how many are there?
- Let's see.
First, there was Eddie in aerospace.
He liked to drive fast and fly high.
We had a pretty good
time until his heart gave out.
Oh. Too much excitement?
- And cocaine.
- Hmm. Yeah.
Well, uh, who's up next?
Mm, Marcel was a real bon vivant.
He owned a bunch of
vineyards outside Calais.
Everybody loved him,
except the people he
conned into buying hotels
that he didn't own.
Yeah, all these guys,
they sound really stable.
Uh, maybe I'm
meant to be alone.
[SIGHING] Yeah.
Thing is, you know, even
when you're with somebody,
you can still be alone.
[LIGHT POP MUSIC PLAYING]
I think I'm
probably just a lot to come home to.
Or you just haven't found
the guy that can handle it.
Are we good enough friends to tell me
about that polygraph yet?
[CHUCKLES] Getting closer.
[THUNDER RUMBLING]

[BOTH LAUGH]
Pollination's an essential element
of any healthy garden.
Blood on the grass,
blood on my knees ♪
Bumblebees return to the same flower
again and again
[LAUGHS]
Scream on the breeze ♪
You make me laugh,
you bless my sneeze ♪
You want to get really crazy?
Feels good to find someone ♪
While butterflies are easily distracted
by bright petals and long stems.
[GUNFIRE ON TV]
Can we can can we
watch something else?
[EXPLOSIONS]
It's so hot.
- Where are we?
- You'll see.
You helped me back
up and kiss my lips sore ♪
- Watch your step. Just
- Okay.
Can I open them now?
- Now.
- [GASPS]
[SCREAMS] Oh, my gosh!
- Hi!
- [DOGS BARKING, WHIMPERING]
Wait, what? How?
My boss does their signs for free.
[BOTH LAUGH]
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
[TOILET FLUSHING]
Yo, do you have a plunger?
[CHUCKLES] Asking for a friend.
[DOGS BARKING, WHIMPERING]
I know you're not ready,
but when you are
But in the end,
it really doesn't matter
who's pollinating who.
The secret to a great garden
is great sex.
- Mm.
- Lower?
Higher.
Uh-uh, lower.
Why are we putting in bird traps anyway?
They're feeders.
Judges give extra points
for a variety of wildlife.
So this is perfect for
orioles and finches.
Oh, that makes way more sense.
- Also, coyotes.
- Ugh!
Unless you want them to eat the birds.
- [CELL PHONE CHIMES]
- Oh, so your phone does work.
Oh, I know. I got your text. I forgot.
I was just wondering
if we're gonna watch the
Tigers game tomorrow.
- [CELL PHONE CHIMES]
- [SCOFFS]
These apps are making me insane.
Yeah, someone should really invent
a better way to have anonymous sex.
- Yeah.
- Why are you even on them?
What do you mean?
I just mean you never
really put yourself out there.
[SIGHS]
Contrary to what you all
may think, I'm still a dude.
- Yeah, you are.
- [SNAPS FINGERS]
- All man.
- [CHUCKLES]
I just meant since your divorce.
- Yeah, I'm overdue.
- I love it.
Release the kraken.
[LAUGHS] I'll take
anyone who's semi-normal
who can semi-appreciate me.
Oh, that app definitely does not exist.
So are we watching the game or what?
- [CELL PHONE CHIMING]
- Uh, yeah. Yeah, that'd be cool.
O'Sullivan's is playing
it in their beer garden.
Yeah, I'll text you.
So, uh, what height don't we
want to feed the coyotes at?
[LIGHT MUSIC]
[GRINDER WHIRRING]
Kind of just want to talk
about the whole college thing.
So have you looked at any schools yet?
Not really.
Did you talk to that
guidance counselor lady?
Nope.
So what are you thinking?
I'm thinking I might not go.
[SIGHS]
You don't get the money if you don't go.
Can't you just give it to someone else?
I'd rather give it to you.
Yeah, well
it's just a lot for my
family to process right now.
What are you talking about?
I don't know.
Things are weird at home, okay?
Okay.
They just don't need the stress
of all the applications
and the campus tours.
Maybe I can make it
easier on your parents.
You've done enough.
[SOFT INDIE ROCK MUSIC PLAYING]
If you change your mind
Just
leave me alone.
Hmm
[DARK POP MUSIC PLAYING]
[SCOFFS]
Gary?
Gary.
What happened to you?
Oh, my God.
It looks worse than it is.
Are you missing a tooth?
Just stay away from me, okay?
Wait!
And don't tell your husband about this.
[SOFT DRAMATIC MUSIC]
Guys, I know this is awful
and no amount of therapy
is ever gonna make us normal again,
but right now, we gotta
get this out of here.
What have we done?
That is not a useful question!
Will you give her a break?
Okay.
The question is, how do we
get the body to the garden?
What about your truck?
- I can't move this by myself.
- We can all do it.
You want me to touch a dead person?
Okay, just pull around
to the loading dock.
No, we can't use the truck.
The back's all open.
Oh, perfect.
So, if anyone looks, they'll be like,
"Hey, murderers, this
your corpse back here?"
Then we'll use their car.
Who's gonna drive a dead person's car
with the dead person in it?
- I will.
- No, no, no, no. Hell no!
- It should be me.
- Guys
Why you? Why not her?
I'm still drunk.
Yeah, and she's on
probation for drunk driving.
- Guys
- Right. She knows how.
- [SIGHS]
- I can drive the body.
All of this is my fault.
- You can't go alone.
- She won't be.
Why me?
If we get pulled over,
you're the drunk friend
who needs a ride home.
Right before my very eyes ♪
S-T-O-P.
I thought that you
were only faking it ♪
And like before ♪
S-T-O-P.
[CHICAGO'S "BABY, WHAT A BIG SURPRISE"]
Why do you keep doing that?
Fully spell out "stop,"
and it's a complete stop.
- Good tip.
- Lots of practice.
[CAR BEEPING]
Oh, no.
- What is that?
- I don't know.
- I don't know.
- What is that?
I'm telling you, I don't know.
- Well S-T-O-P!
- Oh!
[TIRES SCREECH]
[BEEPING CONTINUES]
[SIGHS]
We're out of gas.
Like, "out of gas" out of gas?
Or, like, "there's still a
few days left" out of gas?
It's below empty.
Who drives on empty?
Someone who doesn't
think they're gonna end up
- in their own trunk.
- Oh, my God.
- Oh, my God.
- Okay, we just
we gotta get gas.
With a dead person in the trunk?
Would you rather be
stranded on the side of the road
with a dead person in the trunk?
I'd rather go home and take a shower.
Okay, we just gotta
find a gas station
Oh, please.
And act like a couple of prom queens
who just had the time of their lives.
- I can't do this.
- Hey.
You can.
How are you so calm?
I've learned people are capable
of way more than you think.
Baby, what a big surprise ♪
[VIDEO GAME CHIMING]
Hold still, Daddy.
You're gonna smudge it.
Oh, that's nice.
The pinkies are the hardest part.
Oh.
Okay, both of you go upstairs
and brush your teeth, please.
But I'm not done with Daddy's manicure.
But I'm gonna look so
pretty for my 10:00 with sales.
- [CHUCKLES]
- All right, off you go.
There you go.
Mm.
By the way, poker night tonight.
I'm gonna miss dinner.
Oh.
You'll also miss our appointment.
Damn.
But, uh
you missed last night too.
The therapist says we gotta
stick to the intimacy schedule.
Sorry, babe, I've just
been slammed at work.
Sure you're not avoiding me?
Come on, now.
Ran into Gary at the mall.
- How was his vacation?
- Not great.
- Oh?
- He didn't get a tan.
He
he got his ass kicked.
Well, did he say who did it?
Oh, clearly someone
who thought he deserved it.
Yeah, well, I bet
there's a lot of husbands
who want to knock out that guy's teeth.
[HIGH-PITCHED RINGING]
All right, kiddos.
Daddy's train is about
to leave the station.
Let's go!
- Say bye to Mommy.
- Bye.
Have a great day.
All right, let's boogie.
Hey, hey, hey. Um, wait a minute.
How did you know he had a tooth missing?
[MYSTERIOUS MUSIC]
You said he had been worked over.
Right.
Probably had a broken nose too.
[DOOR SHUTS]
No, I can't ask that.
Because I'm at some
dude's apartment right now.
Yes, I slept over.
Why can't you do it?
What? I gotta go.
Last night was, uh
was really fun.
- Got a little crazy.
- Mm.
- The good kind?
- The best kind.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]
- [CELL PHONE BUZZES]
Oh, it's cool if you have to go or
- I don't want to.
- Oh, then stay.
I can't.
Am I making it weird?
Uh
I kind of lied on my profile.
Yeah.
- There's someone else.
- Oh, no.
I mean, there is someone
else, but it's just
it's not that kind of someone else.
Oh, like, an open relationship?
- I have a kid.
- Oh!
Why'd you lie about that?
I mean, what guy wants to
hear about the stripper's kid?
Wait, wait, wait. You're a stripper?
No, I just mean, like, single moms
aren't exactly killing it on the apps.
- [CHUCKLES]
- [CELL PHONE BUZZES]
Sorry, do you have anything
for a second grader's lunch?
My ex forgot to pack
one for her field trip.
[EXHALES SHARPLY]
You've come to the
right kitchen, my friend.
- Boom.
- Oh!
- Mm-hmm.
- Hello.
I was just hoping for
popcorn and Gatorade.
No, Lunchables, Uncrustables,
fake cheese, yogurt tubes.
My knight in shining armor.
Ooh, I'm gonna add that to my profile.
[CHUCKLES] Um okay.
So I'm just going to hijack
the rest of your coffee,
and I'll get myself out of here.
Or you could come back later,
and I'll take you to breakfast.
I'd like that, Brian.
Brett.
- Are you sure?
- Ah
[BOTH CHUCKLING]
- I'm stealing your shirt!
- [LAUGHS]
[LIGHT MUSIC]
Okay, so we have potato
skins shaped like mitts,
chicken nuggets shaped
like little home plates,
and taquitos
Shaped like penises?
Those are baseball bats.
You didn't have to
go to all this trouble.
Oh, don't be silly.
I do this every game.
You always make penis taquitos?
[ANNOUNCER SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY ON TV]
We felt bad for you, okay?
Yeah, you know, just
with Brett blowing you off.
Oh, he didn't blow me off.
He just sent me the shrugging cat emoji.
What does that even mean?
That he got a better offer?
Yeah, okay, that would drive me crazy.
Well, he's allowed to have fun.
Let's hope the fun he
ends up with is down
with him having a girl bestie.
Why wouldn't they be?
I'm married.
You're also super bomb,
so they might have a slight problem.
Well, I'm not worried. [CHUCKLES]
Okay, great.
Well, then how do you and
Brett normally do all this?
Oh, we usually do a shot
every time someone
gets a double or more.
I can't do shots.
I have to take the kids
to school in the morning.
I'll just do a shot every time
they pat each other's butts.
Oh, you're gonna be wasted.
Well, then I think I found my sport.
[CHUCKLES]
Come on, come on ♪
Just make that Tootsee Roll ♪
Here we go, here we go ♪
Just make that Tootsee Roll ♪
Yeah, come on ♪
You could send it to voice mail.
But then he'll know
that I saw he called.
And make that Tootsee Roll ♪
Who's "Hot Cop"?
Something I'm trying to quit.
- No one patted a butt.
- [SIGHS] They will.
Hey, guys, can we please
just watch the game?
- Yeah, sure.
- Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm. Okay.
- [SMOKE ALARM BEEPING]
- Oh, my bacon-wrapped dates!
- Oh, no, no, no, no, no!
- Oh, it's for the best!
- There's so much food.
- Oh, no, no!
Oh, God! Oh!
- Do you want some help?
- Oh, Jesus!
- Oh.
- Can you get the broom?
- Yeah, where is it?
- Just right over there.
Oh!
No, no, no, no, no.
- [GRUNTING]
- Here, here, here.
Oh, thank you. Jesus!
Come on. Stop. Oh.
- [SMOKE DETECTOR SHATTERS]
- Oh!
Oh, Tucker just installed these.
He's gonna kill me.
[CURIOUS MUSIC]
Is that a camera?
You might want to
rethink doing that shot.
[TENSE MUSIC]
- [DOOR OPENS]
- [SIGHS]
- How was poker night?
- Oh, great. Won big.
Enough to replace the
smoke detector I broke?
What happened?
Burned some appetizers,
but you probably already knew that.
I don't want to be spied on.
Well
I didn't want you to
bang Gary in our bed.
- Oh, my God.
- But here we are.
- You said you forgave me.
- You fell in love with him.
So you pulverized his face?
You know, it was my guys, actually.
Your guys?
You put in office alarm systems.
We also do response security.
Well, they responded.
Look, I'm just trying
to protect my family.
[SCOFFS]
You don't have to do all this.
Neither did you!
- You have me now.
- Do I?
- [LAUGHS]
- Come on, Tucker.
You only ended it
because you got played.
I'm yours.
How am I supposed to ever believe that?
[SOMBER MUSIC]
I mean
how many times can
you dock in Saint-Tropez
without feeling like it's Groundhog Day?
Yachts can't live with them,
can't torch them for
the insurance payout.
[LAUGHS]
God, I miss you sometimes.
Well, you shouldn't have divorced me.
You were sending me to an early grave.
Well, that was the plan.
[LAUGHS]
[CHUCKLES]
How are your kids?
Monica is enjoying a brief stint
back in her artists' colony.
You mean rehab?
Their therapeutic arts
program is exceptional.
More importantly, how's your kid?
Mm.
[POP MUSIC PLAYING]
He wants nothing to do with me.
Neither do mine.
At least they want your money.
- So write him a check.
- I tried.
- Write a bigger one.
- [SCOFFS]
Maybe I'm not cut out
for, you know, motherhood.
Liam would disagree.
Liam is ten years older than me.
He still calls you Mom.
He only started that
when I wouldn't have sex with him.
Really?
Christmas trip, Aspen.
My boy's always had good taste.
[BOTH LAUGH]
Well, I think my boy might
be better off without me.
It's not that easy.
It was for the first
16 years of his life.
Why not now?
Because if you really
want to be his mom
it's not a choice.
Why didn't we work out?
I'm an old bore.
I could use some more boring in my life.
You fell in love with him.
I'm yours.
How am I supposed to ever believe that?
[CORALIE CLÉMENT'S "INDÉCISE"]
[SINGING IN FRENCH]
Okay, this is a good one. Okay.
- This is a guy in finance.
- Mm.
But his real passion
is doing dance TikToks.
- [LAUGHS]
- And he prefers baths over showers.
And he loves using the word "rizz."
- Ooh! Uh
- [LAUGHING]
- Hang on, hang on.
- You only get one guess.
Him.
But he's more "YOLO" than "rizz."
[LAUGHS] Okay, yes.
Now you're getting it.
Okay, okay, okay, okay. My turn.
- Okay.
- Um
all right. [CLEARS THROAT]
She's a little kooky.
Mm
okay, there's a lot of
cray-cray in here tonight.
But the good kind, like, uh
like somebody who wants to
ride the biggest roller coaster
or, uh, streak a Denny's
or crash somebody's bat mitzvah.
Mm give me more.
Okay.
She smells good, like vacation.
Ooh, I like that.
And she's the kind of person
who's just really easy to be with,
especially for a guy who
hasn't been on an actual date
- in a very long time.
- [CHUCKLES]
Is it her?
[GIGGLING]
[BOTH LAUGH]
Um, okay, okay, my turn.
Alice.
Alice.
Hey. Hey. This is this is Cricket.
Oh.
Cricket, this is, uh
this is my, um
garden buddy.
Yeah.
- Well, nice to meet you.
- Hi.
- Doug. Not a gardener.
- [LAUGHTER]
- Did you see the Tigers won?
- Oh, yeah.
That bottom-of-the-seventh
home run was unreal.
[BOTH LAUGH]
- You watched it?
- He almost caught it.
Yeah, and if this kid in front of us
didn't bring his stupid mitt, like
- Wait, you were there?
- Yeah.
Well, uh, someone in Cricket's class
gave her these insane tickets, you know.
Huh.
It's just one of the many amazing perks
of being a teacher.
Huh.
Well, hey, Alice used to teach.
Oh. Why'd you stop?
Um, I
I can seat you when you're ready.
- Thanks.
- Yeah, yeah. We're ready.
- Enjoy.
- Bye.
- Nice to meet you.
- Have a good night.
Oh.
Can I get you anything to drink?
Absolutely.
Yeah, that'd be great. Thanks.
[SOFT PIANO MUSIC PLAYING]
How was your day?
Uneventful.
They come fix the AC?
Mm-hmm.
Uh
said we need a new compressor.
They leave an estimate?
Over there.
Hmm.
Was it the supervisor
or the short guy they always send?
[SCOFFS]
Weren't you watching?
Would it upset you if I was?
No.
Still have on those green undies?
[UPBEAT ELECTRONIC MUSIC]
- They're from France.
- Oh.
[CHUCKLES] It's not 9:00.
I don't care.
[GIGGLES]
[TRUCK HORN BLARES]
[SUSPENSEFUL MUSIC]
Hi there.
- How you holding up?
- Better.
Okay.
Good.
I'm gonna ask you something, and, uh
I need you to stay calm.
- Okay.
- Do you have any cash on you?
Brett made us leave all
our phones and purses
at the garden center
so they couldn't track us!
I just, uh I meant, like
tucked away in your bra or something.
What? Like, someone gave me a tip?
Okay.
Okay, check the glove compartment.
[SCOFFS]
- All right.
- Uh, what about under the seat?
[SIGHS, WHIMPERS]
[SIGHING] Oh
- Okay.
- What do we do?
Nothing you're gonna like.
You take left pocket. I'll take right.
Oh, God, this is all kinds of wrong.
Pretty much the theme of the night.
[GROANS]
Oh!
- Ugh, it's used.
- Oh, God.
Oh, God, gross.
- Oh, oh, oh.
- What?
That's at least half a tank of gas.
Oh, great. Now we're drug dealers too.
[BOTH SIGH]
Wait!
The name's on the bottle.
I kind of like her.
What do you like about her?
I mean, what's not to like?
She's hot, funny, down-to-earth.
Yeah, I guess.
Mm. She's even a teacher.
Yoga teacher.
Whatever. [CHUCKLES]
Brett's definitely
getting pregnant tonight.
[ORACLE SISTERS' "ASC. SCORPIO"]
So what exactly is a garden buddy?
Wait, are you weirded out
that my best friend is a girl?
- Oh!
- Ah.
I'm sorry, I thought she
was just your garden buddy.
Why can't you just be happy for the guy?
I just feel like my
friend can do better.
Really?
Feels like you're a little jealous.
Seriously?
I mean, we've spent
enough time talking about it.
You got it wrong,
it's not as it seems ♪
- So let's stop.
- Ah.
You're Ascendant Scorpio ♪
Oh!
I mean, when you spend
a lot of time with someone,
obviously, it crosses your mind.
I'm not saying you're into her.
Well, good, 'cause I'm not.
I'm saying she wants you to be.
What do you mean?
I don't know, I just get the vibe
that she's one of those girls, you know?
- Alice is married.
- [CHUCKLES] So?
So she doesn't want to be with me.
Mm, maybe not.
But she definitely doesn't want you
to be with anyone else either.
Hmm.

No, I didn't.
Because now I do this new trick

You had anything to drink?
It's, like, noon.
Please step out of the car.
[CLEARS THROAT]
What, you gonna have me walk the line,
touch my nose, do the chicken dance?
I want to know what you told my son.
Excuse me?
Well, he's not going to
college now because of you.
- [SCOFFS]
- That's what he said.
Hmm.
Well, he told me it was
because your marriage
is a dumpster fire.
What's that got to do with you?
Let's be honest.
I'm not helping your situation.
- Nothing's happened.
- Not yet.
- We're just friends.
- Joel.
That's the deal.
Yeah, it's also called an excuse.
Okay, speak for yourself.
[SCOFFS]
Oh, so I'm the lunatic
who's just imagined we've been dying
to get into each other's pants?
Hey, I'm sorry if I've
given you the wrong idea.
No wonder you failed that polygraph.
You're a terrible liar.
Yeah, well, I guess you'll never know.

Brett made us leave all

Yeah, I guess.
Mm. She's even a teacher.
Yoga teacher.
Whatever. [CHUCKLES]
