Girlfriends Guide To Divorce (2014) s02e02 Episode Script

1 Previously on "Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce" Abby, what if we gave this thing one more shot? SheShe wants to start a new divorce page.
Barbara is our your managing editor.
- I didn't mean to insult you in any way.
- Listen, let's pretend there's a door here, and I am shutting it.
I want a huge, crazy wedding.
I'm not anybody's blushing bride.
My pastry chef was supposed to be here, but he ended up taking the bus.
There's a guy camping in your backyard.
Scott, Abby.
Abby, Scott.
I don't think it's a good idea for us making this permanent, you know, living together.
You loaded? Are you loaded? You asked if I was sure.
Becca has decided not to keep the baby.
And I realized I wasn't.
So I don't think I have to tell Abby, right? Can I talk to you outside? Okay, the kids could come out here.
- Abby? - Oh! Oh, my God, oh, my God.
- Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God.
- Okay, maybe she didn't - She definitely did.
Yeah.
- This is disaster.
Shit.
What if she tells Lilly or Jo? - She's probably telling Jo right now.
- You know what? You know what? Maybe she won't tell anybody.
Maybe it-it's just like a bear.
She's more freaked out than we are.
That is not possible.
We need to talk to her.
Let's level with her, and let's ask her not to tell anybody.
We cannot ask a child to lie for us.
- Terrible idea.
- Okay.
Let's tell the truth.
Let's tell the kids.
Let's tell the world, out with it.
I'm not ready for that, for this.
- I am sorry, and you know what, I - No.
I hate secrets, but I need this job at SheShe.
And now, now is not the time to tell people we're still married.
I I need something under my feet that is not shifting.
Okay, I get it.
Okay.
I can handle a little more undercover intrigue.
- It's not forever.
- I know.
-- and robtor -- Charlie, do you want bananas or raisins? Charlie? I am not riding with her ever.
- What? - She can't drive, hello? She's learning, honey.
You can walk, but I'm starting my lessons on Monday.
- Morning.
- Well, I'm not going to be there! - All right.
- Abby? - Morning.
- Hey, you guys, - we're late.
Let's get it going.
- Yup.
Hey, dad, will you take me to the valley this weekend - to practice driving? - Why the valley? - Those people want to live too.
- Ha, ha, ha.
They have really big, empty parking lots out there.
Sounds like a magical place.
- Yes.
- Pardon me.
- Hey, do you want some help with that? - No, sir, I am learning to be self-sufficient, remember? You look like shit.
You're not sleeping? What? No, I'm sleeping.
Or something.
Seriously, your face is like warmed-over ass.
- Thanks.
- You're welcome.
Really, tweed? I expected you to have, - like, Puerto Rican flags or to be - No, these belong to Zooey.
She's going to visit Frumpkis and the Wicked Witch of the South.
I thought you were moving out like an adult.
Well, finding a place in L.
A.
isn't as easy as you might think.
Funny, I found the Paradiso really, really fast.
Because it's corporate housing.
It's soulless stucco boxes.
Maybe that crap's good enough for you but not for my kid, and since I'm opening a bakery in dos dias You don't have to move right away.
Could you say that with a little less enthusiasm, please? Thanks.
Look, it was my idea to expand to the West Coast.
This is on me, so let me just get the doors open, and I swear on my life I will find a place.
- Zooey, Uber's here! - Lilly - Bye.
- Say good-bye to your mother.
Zooey, Uber's here! - I'm here.
- She's right there.
- Shut the door.
Behave.
Hey.
- What? Shotgun! - Okay, I'll be right there.
- Got it.
Okay, that was weird, but it wasn't like "we're in trouble" - weird, right? - I feel like if she told, then it would've been a whole other - But it was hostile.
- Abby? Abby? May I have a word with you? - Okay, sure.
- In private? - Of course.
- Yeah, I'm gonna I'm got to drive the kids to school, then.
- Have a good day, Jake.
- Okay.
Okay.
I know this is none of my business.
I am so sorry that you had to see what you saw, and I'm sure it's very confusing.
Not if you and Jake are back together.
Are you? - That is a big question, and - Oh.
And sometimes life can be very complicated.
Lilly and Charlie can't know.
They've been through this so many times.
It's not fair to the kids.
That's right.
I won't say anything.
I cannot ask you to lie for me.
I'm leaving for two weeks.
You're the one who has to lie.
Bye.
Bye.
I was literally sitting here trying to figure out how I could get all my work done from here in this bed with you.
Well, you do do pretty good work in bed.
I do have a meeting, though, at 9:00, with manufacturing I know, about the new line.
I guess I approve.
Hey, what are we gonna eat tonight? I was thinking Nobu? Be a great place for our engagement party.
Did you say engagement party? Just a few dozen friends, maybe one toast, and done.
A few dozen? I don't have time to plan an engagement party.
Well, then why did we hire a wedding planner? You hired her? Jonathan is gonna take care of everything.
Your only job is to show up and marry me.
Mmm, I think I can do that.
Phoebe, I wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed the editorial you wrote for the parent newsletter.
Oh, wow, thank you, Ellen.
I had no idea you'd gone through all that.
I'd love you to come talk to my economics class.
Most people think there's no child labor in the U.
S.
, but clearly you had a different experience.
Yeah, I would be honored.
- Great.
I'll email you some times.
Okay.
- Okay.
Thank you.
What does that even mean, "A crowded field of vegan treateries"? Wha we're a vegan bakery.
- That is our brand.
- Hey, Marco, it's me again.
- Uh, can you call me back? - All right.
- Thanks.
- Well, you know what? - What's going on with Marco? - Ooh.
I had a little too much to drink the other night.
Oh, okay.
And I thought it was okay with us, but I guess we're not.
Wait.
What? Oh, you want me to make the phone call for you? Sure, yeah, I'll do your job.
On a lighter note, Ellen Tedford asked me to speak in front of her class.
- Hey, that's awesome.
- I know.
- Congratulations.
- Yeah, you got it, sweetie.
Okay, bye.
Mother Who's that? Idiot PR lady.
She's barely doing any press for the opening.
Apparently we're not distinctive enough.
We need a hook.
What was your hook in New York? We sell vegan stuff, and it's frickin' awesome, and Scott's the go-to guy in Brooklyn, but according to asshole here, we're late for the food-free food party in L.
A.
- Scott, tent Scott? - Yes.
Do not sleep with him.
I'm serious.

He adores you.
Um, yes.
Jo, what is happening with your apartment hunt? Wow, you just can't stop pushing me out the door, can you? No, I no, I was I left a message for a realtor.
Her face looked very nice on the bench.
Okay, well, if there's anything I can do to help, I You want to help me? You get every person you know to come to the bakery so I don't go broke.
I got to go.
Do not touch Scott's twinkie.
I'm serious.
- I couldn't wait to tell you.
- Mm-hmm.
She was like that robot girl in the what was that show? - "Small Wonder.
" - So scary mature.
So she actually said, "we can't tell the ch We can't tell the children?" Basically, she did.
- Wow.
Creepy.
- Yeah, but you know what? It makes me sad, because I don't I don't want our kids to feel like they have to parent us.
I want them to feel safe and secure.
Our kids don't feel that way.
- No? - Mm-mm.
Also, they know that we are going through a transition.
For example, I am transitioning into a person who's not wearing pants.
Ow, what is that? What? Oh, sorry.
That is called an independent film production office right here on my bed.
You are a fancy Hollywood director.
I'm gonna kill those guys.
- What is it? - Damn leaf blower guy.
Hey! Turn it off! It's all right.
- Hey! Hey! - Let it go.
Turn it off! - Jake? Hey.
- Yeah! Thank you! Come back to bed.
Which one of those beautiful ladies is the love interest of Mr.
Lovett? We're not doing that.
Not at all.
What? But he's your star.
Right, but we're kind of.
I mean, we're kind of We're thinking about the whole thing differently.
He doesn't have a love interest.
He doesn't come in till the third act of the film.
Who thought that was a good idea? It's a dramatic tension thing.
- I thought it would - What? Are you giving me notes right now? Because I thought it was playtime.
Sorry, no notes, no notes.
I'm sorry.
- Are you sure? - Yeah, I'm sorry.
Such a know-it-all, my God.
Can't help it.
Actually, though, I want I meant to ask you one thing, which is this, here, this Does this guy play to you as military intelligence? He's a little young.
- Okay, right? - Right.
That's what I thought, but casting are We are working.
Oh.
- Yeah.
- Sorry.
Do you think maybe this place is too real for playtime? You think we need more of a "Fantasy Island" vibe? Yeah, like a fancy hotel where we could We could get room service, have lots of sex.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, what is the place with the, um - The little the little sundaes? - The little sundaes! Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'll look it up.
No, no, wait, I can't.
I have a meeting at 2:00 at SheShe.
I don't care.
If they saw us right now, I'd be so fired.
'Cause you are so full of shit.
- 'Cause you're - Hey.
Hey, stop.
I just just cancel that meeting.
I can't.
It's with my managing editor and the woman who hates me.
I'm pitching divorce stories.
Okay, well, go pitch your divorce stories and then go to the hotel and have sex with your husband.
No! They stole it from us! Well, come to the opening, because we will show you who's derivative-ing who.
Unbelievable, some vegan asshole - Can you sign here, please? - Stole our frickin' faux-hos recipe, and he's tweeting it from his bakery.
- Thank you.
- I saw it this morning.
Now look.
Taste this.
Oh, my God.
What is this? Our new signature, the cruffin nookie.
Part muffin, part cookie, made with croissant dough and baked to a crispy perfection.
The n in "nookie" is just there to sound dirty.
- This is unbelievable.
- Mm-hmm.
How'd you make the croissant dough without butter? Are you kidding? There's, like, a pound of it in there.
We're a vegan bakery.
Not anymore.
When we did that in New York, it was, like, a radical shift, but now we're in L.
A.
The fat can be the new nonfat.
Wrong, this is the vegan capital of the world.
Jo, you're not even a vegan anymore, and I'm not a vegan.
I've never been a vegan.
I have to eat this sorry-ass way because I have allergies.
Take this delicious abomination, destroy all evidence of this.
Jo, I am an artist, and artists need to grow.
No growing.
You hear me? You stay the exact same size.
No growing.
No change.
Now, I got to go apartment hunting, so when I return, this place better be piled high with vegan crap.
Come on! - Whoa.
- Whoa.
- Hi.
- Hi.
Going somewhere? Yeah, a quick meeting out of the office.
You're gonna have to cancel it.
I have some bad news.
Grant Manning is dead.
What? When? A couple days ago, ski accident.
Black diamond run, hit a tree.
- How awful.
- Yeah.
Please forgive me for what I'm about to ask.
I'm way ahead of you, and the answer is no, he did not sign the divorce agreement before he died.
Shit.
Albert, I've worked on that case for over a year.
Yeah, well, it's as if it never happened.
Annie is still his wife, and she's fighting his daughter for property.
What can I do? Be in the conference room at 2:00 P.
M.
to mediate.
Okay, be back in an hour.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
You're still leaving? Yeah, I agreed to meet with a wedding planner.
- It starts.
- No, Albert, it stops.
I meet once, and that's it.
Then I'm done.
Everything's gonna be taken care of.
Want to go around again? Yeah, sure.
Why not? What are you wearing? I thought we were playing.
You are.
Walt.
Who's Walt? I hired a Manny to play sports with the boys while Max is gone.
Yeah, he takes them surfing, plays tennis, football, basketball; It's great.
Okay, so I get the Manny? You don't seriously want to play basketball with me.
No? So I will be Max's emotional proxy while Walt runs your ass off.
- Walt, this is Jake.
- Oh, hey, man.
- Thanks for letting me play.
- My pleasure.
Now you kick my ass? Is that right? Come on, dude, we're just gonna have some fun, right? Look.
I tell you what.
You mind if I warm up a little bit? No, stretch it out.
Yeah.
So he's a strapping young man, and your husband's out of town, and - He's straight.
- Mm-hmm.
And it's not even like that.
No, he did four years in Afghanistan.
He's going to UCLA.
He's a good role model for the boys, so get your mind out of the gutter.
All right, your turn.
Max tells me Becca's pregnant? Wow, way to respect the cone of silence, Max.
Well, did you tell him there was no spousal dispensation? No.
Okay, well, then the cone includes me.
You know the rules.
What'd Abby say? You haven't said anything? You know, things are delicate between us right now.
You know what? Your kids are about to have a baby half-sibling.
I mean, if you think this is gonna get easier to break to Abby the longer you wait, you are seriously clueless.
Whoo.
Hold on, are we talking about your housekeeper, or No, Brittany's.
The housekeeper's name is Brittany? No, sorry, the Brittany is my friend.
Marta is her housekeeper.
Marta got married in Guatemala, but she broke up in the U.
S.
, and she's been trying to get a divorce, but she needs her ex to sign the papers, and she has no idea where he is.
Okay, Abby, uh, what we want from you is your unique angle.
- Right.
- Lifestyle, aspirational, sexy.
I just want to be more sensitive to our readers, many of whom are going through very difficult divorces.
Their Guatemalan husbands are missing? Some of them, and I just thought it would be good if we could mix in some earthy, grounded stories with the fun.
But you're the sexy face of divorce, okay? You're not here to write about the sad, upsetting side.
Ew, that's Barbara's face.
No offense.
So we want to see you out there at, um, gallery openings and fashion shows, artisanal food fairs.
Barbara is going to oversee you on this.
Ooh, call Cowan and get a list of escorts.
No, not escort-escorts.
I actually know one of those.
I'll bet you do, but we're actually looking for someone who's gonna look good in the photo.
Ooh, get some buzzworthy men, or women, hey, whatever, right? Okay, so 1,000 words twice a week plus some glam photos of Abby's adventures.
Ladies, let's sell some divorce.
I know that this is uncomfortable, but I do think that this place needs both of us.
Gee, thanks, person who's been here five minutes.
Idea.
I think you should go on the dates instead of me.
I can tag along with a photographer and write all the pieces, but then you get to be glam.
First of all, I am glam.
Secondly, you're the sexy face.
I'm the brains.
That's what he said.
That is not exactly what he said.
Look, I get it.
This is too real.
The world is not ready for this.
They all want to pretend to be you.
Hell, I want to pretend to be you.
Yeah, but, you know, we could We can't.
I'm good at what I do.
I will set this thing up, and then we'll see if you're any good at what you do.
- I - Mm-mm.
Okay.
Door.
We're downtown.
Yes, I noticed that when I was driving in.
It took me 45 minutes to get here.
I guess I'll just have to get back in the car and go back.
Oh, come on, babe.
It's just a meeting.
Albert's going to understand.
No, he won't.
One of my cases fell through.
If I don't fix it today, the company's gonna lose a shit-ton of money.
- Where's Jonathan? - I have no idea.
You're the first face that I've seen.
Hello? Anybody here? I'm on a clock.
Jonathan? I am, and this is my assistant, Mayi.
Hmm.
I am Delia Banai, and this is my fiancé, Gordon Beech.
Follow me.
I'm sorry.
Wh what is this? Choose five items.
What for? It's a game just to get a sense of your taste.
I don't do games.
Maybe you could ask me direct questions.
Invisibility or the power of flight? I'm sorry? If your engagement photographs are going to reflect who you are as a couple, then I need to know who you are, so invisibility or the power of flight? I'm sorry.
We have made a mistake.
I'm sorry to have wasted your time.
Yeah, just give us a second.
Delia.
Okay, that person planned Clooney's wedding? Come on back in, just 15 minutes, that's it.
Do you have any idea how much 15 minutes is worth in my day? I know it well.
I've paid your rates.
And what does money have to do with anything at all? This is not about the money.
We have all the money we could ever need.
This is about the firm.
I'm a partner, okay? I care about what I do.
I don't care about the power of invisibility.
Oh, I don't either.
The power of flight, 100%.
I'm gonna see you later.
Delia.
We're only getting married once.
Please just enjoy it with me.
Go back inside.
Make all the decisions.
I'll agree to whatever you want.
Scott? Are you here? Kitchen.
So you find a place? Why are the shelves empty? Where's the baked stuff? Check these out.
I call these carrot crakes, made with carrot cake but baked with a croissant dough.
Stop it with the croissants already.
What are you doing? Where are the faux-hos and the cheeseless cheesecake and the no-bake, dairy-free biscottis? - What are you doing? - Do you hear yourself? Faux, less, no, free, you are literally pimping deprivation.
Vegans like deprivation.
That is why they are vegan.
Yeah, well, not this guy, not anymore.
So do you know what? - I quit.
- Hey, hey.
Hey, hey, hey, hey! You are gonna stay here.
You're gonna do your job.
I don't want a job.
Oh, well, excuse me, Mr.
Artiste.
You know what? - I plucked you from a farmers' market - Ah, don't even A C-list farmers' market, baby, and you're gonna bail on me? You used to be the ballsiest chick I knew, and now you're just a - Just another capitalist drone.
- You're the one without the balls.
You're afraid you can't cut it in L.
A.
- That's what's going on.
- I I hate L.
A.
, little dogs in purses, but you know what? I'm stimulated.
Yeah, I'm having ideas.
Change is good, Jo-Jo.
It feels like shit, but it's good.
Ladies, sorry I'm late.
Michelle, Annie, my sincere condolences for your loss.
My loss.
Dad was divorcing her.
Ladies, I understand.
This is very emotional for you both, but I have been told there is just one issue that needs to be resolved, and I'm confident that we You're not getting the sperm.
He agreed to let me have it in the divorce settlement.
He never signed the papers.
He wanted me to have a baby.
Ladies, let's talk about something that we can agree on.
We can agree that this psychopath, who was my best friend through junior high and high school, who practically grew up in my house, and the minute that I leave for college is screwing my dad, nice.
You know what? You are not getting one ounce of my father's jizz, do you understand? More vitamins in this thing than I consumed all of last year.
Maybe start putting tomatoes on your in-n-out burgers.
Unlikely.
Just a suggestion.
So I don't know.
I just wanted to I wanted to check in and see how you're feeling about everything.
I'm okay.
It depends on the day.
A baby, that's that's a big decision.
Huge, it is, and I got to say, I feel like I kind of talked you into it.
I mean, well, you know, you had decided to not have it.
- And then I said whatever I - Well it's just really important, whatever you do, that you follow your own instinct on it and that it's your decision, you know? So you're saying I shouldn't have the baby? No, I'm well, maybe.
I'm saying you should do That you should know that whatever you are gonna do is going to affect, you know, your life.
So why do I feel like we're talking about you? No, we're not talking well, I mean, I've been very clear that I can't do the baby thing again.
I thought you understood that.
I mean, I've had my kids, and I my life is moving in a very different direction right now, and I just want to make sure we're on the same page with that.
Right.
- Okay, don't don't get upset.
- Totally same page.
I'm just What's happening? I'm having the baby.
Okay.
Thanks for checking in.
I Hey, what's up? You wanted to see me? There's a fashion show downtown at the new Broad Saturday night.
Several top designers are premiering new pieces.
You'll be wearing one of them.
These are for me? Take them.
Try 'em on.
More are coming.
The stylist will decide.
I have a stylist? We want sexy face to look as good as possible.
Well, who are the designers so I can look them up? Why? You don't need to know.
Well, how am I gonna cover the fashion shows if I don't know who the designers are? Calm down, Katie Couric.
You won't be reporting.
You'll sit in the front row with your date, who is TBD.
We'll take pretty pictures.
You will write about being you, and now I have a meeting.
Shakespeare, right? Come on in.
Thank you.
What is that? That is a wedding look book put together by my fiancé and a cartoon character named Jonathan.
You're not gonna look at it? Hmm? Uh, I abdicated.
Whatever Gordon chooses is fine with me.
Really? Really.
Wow.
You know, I've never seen you in feathers, but I'm sure that you can pull it off.
Yeah, it is not gonna work, Albert.
Will the aerialists be up there during the entire ceremony? Ooh, pandas.
Who's there? Hey, babe.
Jesus.
Where have you been? You haven't returned any of my calls.
I got caught up.
Hey, where's that lip balm with the, uh What is it, rose or whatever? I need it.
I'll I'll find it.
Hey, hey.
I got it.
What? What's this? It's something I wrote for the parent newsletter.
They actually want me to talk about it in front of a class.
- You wrote this? - Yeah.
That's funny, 'cause you didn't even graduate high school, and now you're gonna teach at one of the most elite schools in L.
A.
Why would you say that? Okay, I'm sorry.
Oh, no, no, mm-mm.
Have you been drinking? Huh? I said, have you been drinking? Uh, maybe.
- It's not a big deal, whatever.
- No, it's a-it's a big deal.

Okay, shh, we're just gonna go to bed, okay? - Come on.
- No, I don't - Come on.
- I don't want Marco, this is serious.
- Thank you.
- Yes, sir.

I should have worn one of those outfits SheShe lent me.
- Oh, for one of your dates? - Yeah.
Now, who are those dates with? Um, they're still hunting for somebody worthy of the face.

No, her camera was pointed directly at my It was pointed at the real housewife of you know, the actually famous person that was kind of nearby.
Oh, my God.
Blonde with the - It was hilarious.
- Yeah.
Okay, let's go.
Let's go back.
It's just What, are you mad? When you think somebody might recognize you, you ditched me.
It's a little embarrassing.
because of my job.
I can't have somebody Instagram a picture of me at a hotel with my ex-husband.
Husband.
We haven't actually filed the papers.
Okay, please keep your voice down.
I don't think I will, because I'm not hiding anything.
I'm not hiding either.
We've talked about this.
I literally just scraped my career out of the toilet, Jake.
I know.
Okay, fine, so how long do we have to do this? Because if we are gonna work, you have to ditch the doyenne of divorce thing.
- You have to.
- Oh, it's not that simple.
Come on, would you would you change your career? Would you quit your movie if I asked you to? It's not the same thing.
I don't have to lie to do my movie.
- I'm not lying! - You are! I'm trying to figure things out.
I'm trying to figure out us, me, my my voice.
Oh, your voice.
Okay, forget work then.
Have you told your friends about us? - Of course not.
- Of course not.
We decided that we wouldn't until we knew what we were doing.
I know.
I want you.
I don't want you to go on stupid dates.
I want to come home.
Can you admit that you don't know if you want me? No, you can't.
Hey.
Hey.
Oh, man.
- Do you want a coffee? - No, I'm good.
Been drinking coffee all day.
Meetings, you know.
We could have just met at my house.
I can't go to your house anymore, Pheebs.
I'm struggling, babe, and I can't I can't get right if I'm with you, so I don't have to drink around you.
It's not your fault.
It's not gonna work.
Listen, we've done this before, okay? Um I got to do this on my own.
I'm sorry.
Yeah.
- Hey, just three straws.
- Yeah.
Hey.
The place looks fantastic.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Hi.
- Thank you.
So Jo was up all night last night helping with the "baking.
" Oh, is that what kids are calling it these days? - Yes.
- Baking? - I want to bake you so bad.
- Want to bake your face off.
The baker just pinched my ass.
Oh.
I would be mad, but he's so cute.
Attention, everyone! Thank you so much for coming to the opening of Rize.
Yay.
Scott and I decided to come up with something new.
