1 Kate: Previously on "Workin' Moms".
Richard: You got the job.
- Can you leave in a week? - A week? Anne? I landed on my stomach.
Val: Are you prepared for the hormonal shift that can occur when you quit breast feeding? I already had postpartum, can't get it twice.
- The baby is fine.
- What?! You don't seem happy.
Because of me, we can potentially get out of debt.
I guess you don't even need me, Kate.
(Axe thuds) (huffs) I really thought I'd be better at this, otherwise I never would have suggested it.
That's a revealing statement.
Try using your ass next time.
Clench it.
- You've done this before? - Yeah, of course I have.
So I guess no one else is coming? Yeah it seems our fellow "Mommy and Me'rs" disapprove of my field trip choice.
Ah, it's 'cause their spines are weak.
Frankie, drive it home! - (Hard thud) - Yes! Does Lionel know you're here, in your, uh, condition? Hey, I'm not even throwing.
What, should I just be dead? Is that one of the approved list on activities? Jenny, straighten those stupid shoulders! - (Hard thud) - Woo! (Happy grunt) I always thought you could run like a small aggressive country, Anne.
Just two fists in some chino pants.
(Grunts with effort) - (Hard thud) - Hup, hup, ladies.
This one for the win.
Agh! Haaa! (Hard thud) (Victorious) Haaa! Jesus.

What's happening? Um, actually Sarah took him to the pool last week and he loved it, so we signed him up for lessons.

But I'm telling you, this dude is a little merman.
He just needed to get loose.
Get liberated, you know? Yeah-yeah, cool-cool, liberated, I get ya.
Probably also depends on the pool, right? Depth, temperature.

Instructor: All right, hold on tightly right here.
Ponies are so cool.
Their all best friends, until one talks behind the others back, but they work it out.
She's getting confused with this unicorn cartoon that she really likes.
I recommend it if you wanna feel bright.

Frankie: Well, just remind him that in this city, everything's out of everyone's price range.

You're my client.
Did he, did he tell you that he was with me, or He just said you were having a hard time finding a place.
Ah, right, right, yeah.
The only reason I'm having a hard time finding one - is 'cause he's so picky.
- Excuse me? Oh, c'mon, no brass fixtures, no tile floors, central air only.
It's like you're the princess and the pea, man.
Everything is a pea with you.
Okay, Frankie, just get a hold of yourself.
Get a hold of myself? At least I have morals and ethics or whatever.
It's not right what you're doing, man.
It's not right and it's not good.
Can we just go in now? What a waste of my goddamn time! You think I liked driving you around with your Hermes cologne? What about you, huh? You gonna run off like those guys? Yeah-yeah, right-right.
Well, go on, get outta here.

Seriously, Frankie, you should go.
Fuck! Hey.

- Thank you.
(Laughing) (Hard whack) Ow! Charlie, no.
No hitting.
What's wrong? It's just that this is a "no" free circle.
- Yeah.
- It's important.
So you guys never say no? Girls: No.
So, can I borrow a hundred thousand dollars? (laughs) Can't say no.
Oh, do you need money? No.
Of course not.
'Cause I could talk to my husband.
Yeah? (Chuckles) I'm kidding.
Geez.
(Laughing) Come on.
- No, totally.
- I'm joking more than you.
I'm totally financially stable.
Britney: Yeah.
Well this, this has been great.
This has been a really fun play-date.
Um, we're gonna hit it though because we gotta a lot of errands to run.
But you guys, Sarah should get all your numbers and we'll do this again.
- Once again, the baby is fine.
- Okay, thank goodness.
You, on the other hand, I warned you.
As you're aware, at the slightest sight of blood, we have to be more cautious, So you are officially on bed rest.
- God dammit! - Anne.
Something tells me you weren't taking it as easy as I advised.
Yeah, uh, how could you go pony riding in your condition.
I mean you promised me! Those ponies had their spirits crushed along time ago.
- We barely moved.
- In any case, it's your lucky day.
I have decided to allow you to have your bed rest at home, for now.
Any changes and it'll be hospitalization.
Lucky day, indeed.
That means you're only permitted to get out of bed - when absolutely necessary.
- Spectacular.
And lastly, you're on pelvic rest until further notice.
Uh, wait, how's she supposed to go number two? Through her anus.
Pelvic rest means no sexual intercourse.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Okay, that won't be a problem.
- Good.
- Are we done, can we go? - Sure.
- Anne.
Your bed rest starts now, in case that wasn't clear.
- They're comfier than they look.
- Lionel: Hmm? Oh my dear, Frankie.
We got some great times over the years, haven't we? Ah, the house formally owned by the artist formally known as Bryan Adams.
Uh, and you invested that nest egg well, right? Yeah, of course, Giselle made me put it in the bank.
Good.
So I'm sensing something has been a bit off with you lately.
Frankie there have been a few complaints.
Complaints? Uh, right.
Okay.
Now I don't know what happened today, but - I heard from Adam Frasier - Yeah.
Yeah, I ran into Adam Frasier today.
Frankie, I am in a tricky position.
I mean, what do you think I should do here.
Um you think I should take some time off? That's a very logical decision.
The blood is thick Thicker than my thoughts are quick Quicker than these thoughts turn sick, sick Sicker than my temperature rising Sicker than the whites of their eyes despising me And all my lovers that I can't disguise And I'll never know why - (Horn honks) - Ooh, the air is clear Clearer than the taste of tears Clearer than me smell of fear And I'm fearful for a long, cold year with you Don't you know what you do And I give you the goo that oozes Separate the scabs from the bruises I turn my thoughts off and on And off and on and off and on And off and on and off and on (Exasperated breath) And off and on and off and on - (Crash!) - (Sighs) - Hey Val? Val, - Oh.
Kate.
Did you forget something? Need to borrow a pad? I don't.
No.
I got the email that Charlie will lose his seat because I'm going to Montreal? I know it's a coveted spot, but I thought maybe there was something that I could, you know, like what do you guys need, some new toys? I mean, that foam tile is looking a little beat up.
Some fresh carpet, curtains, blinds.
Cash.
Kate, I'm not following.
Do you work for the building? Wow, Val.
I did not take you as someone who would drive a hard bargain.
Fresh coat of paint on the walls, final offer.
- What do you say? - Yes, that would be lovely.
I have been saying for years, we need color in here.
It's so drab.
Agh.
So great, then we have a deal.
I will get some fresh paint on these walls and Charlie will enjoy it when I get back in his spot.
Yes of course.
In your You - Kate, is this a bribe? - Is it working? Kate, I thought we were friends.
The very best of friends.
Best friends.
And as such, you know, best friends keep secrets.
They're like sisters, you know? So, uh what do you say, you don't tell the mountie and we just keep it between you, me and these fading walls.
Well, if I'm going to start taking bribes, Kate, there is something else I'm going to need.
Okay.
What is it, you dirty dog? Would you consider friendship bracelets? You know what? Matching hair cuts.
How about a hug.
Yeah.
All right, okay.
Val: Let's do it.
They say seven seconds.
That's the rule.
Nathan: Hey, what are all these boxes? Kate: Yeah, I went to Costco.
I mean, how are you supposed to get the camera in? Did you at least have fun today? For the love of God, say "yes".
Why is there a year's supply of boxers on our bed? Just trying to make sure you guys are set while I am gone.
Is there like a winter's coming apocalypse that I don't know about? For a boy who's like five years older than our son? I'm just trying to be prepared.
No.
Here.
- Jesus! Sorry.
- Got it That's just over there.
- Let me do that.
- No, I got it.
I got it.
Just, sort of, a righty-tight, lefty-loosey situation.
- Hm-hmm.
- Yeah.
I'm not thrilled that you're going, - but we're gonna be fine.
- Yeah.
Do you want me to tell you that it's gonna suck and we're not gonna get by without you? Maybe.
Okay, it's gonna suck and we're gonna miss you like crazy, but you gotta let go a little bit.
What does that mean? It means if you're gonna go, you actually need to let go.
Be there.
And I promise to wear clean underwear.
Thank you for going along with all of this.
I'm not sure I had a choice.
So that raise you mentioned? How much are we talking about? 25 percent increase.
Wow.
You're gonna be making more than me.
I think my balls just started crying.
(Laughs) Ball tears.
Ooh.
But are you happy for me? I'm okay with it.
Happy, might be pushing it.
Not even 25 percent happy? - Okay, 25 percent happy.
- I'll take it.
(Laughs) Uh, that's backwards.
No, I don't think so.
(Big sigh) (Approaching footsteps) Mommy.
Hey, what are you doing? Did your dad send you to check in on me? No.
Can I get into bed with you? Yeah.
Yeah, come here, honey.
(Relaxed sigh) There you go.
When you come into my mind I lose track of time And I dream a dream of you Running into my arms This is the best part This is the best part I think I'm gonna take a break from work.
I think that's a good idea.
I'll see if the school will take me back early.
We'll figure it out.
I'm sorry I crashed the car into another car.
It was an accident.
I'm sure it was.
Are you scared? Can you just tell me? No.
Not at all.
Are you doing that creepy flight attendant thing? Like, is the whole plane going down? 'Cause I don't even really know what's going on right now.
Maybe you could just smile, right? 'Cause then I'll know you're cool, then I'll be cool, you know? I'd be a terrible flight attendant.
(Groans) - Shh.
Come here.
- (Whimpers) This is the best part this is the best part This is the best part this is the best part Hmmm Isn't it beautiful?
