right now, nicole, cynthia was telling us about dylan's diaper rash.
it's just it's it's not going away, and i-i call the pediatrician every day, and she just says to put more diaper rash cream on.
i'm honestly thinking of just switching.
creams? no, doctors.
i'm sure it's gonna be okay.
i mean, it's just a diaper rash, right? i mean, don't all babies get it? everyone has their own problems, nicole, and we like to keep this class a judge-free zone.
oh, no, no, i wasn't maybe you'd like to share something.
anything? well, actually, there is something that i'd like some advice on, yeah.
um and since we're all strangers here, maybe this is a safe place.
okay.
i slept with my brother's best friend adam, and just keeping this secret is killing me.
you haven't told him he's the father? no, that's not what i meant.
no, he's not the father.
no, this just happened the other night.
the point is that it it's just keeping a secret from everyone our friends and, you know, brian that that's my brother i don't know what he would do if he found out, and i'm just feeling so guilty, you know? and i'm just wondering, does anyone think that i should tell? i'm not sure that's quite what mommy and baby classes are about.
okay, let's pick up our babies and move to circle time.

this has nothing to do with the way i feel about you, brian, so don't take it personally, 'cause i really like you.
aryou breaking up with me? because we're not even aouple, so that would just be weird.
we we haven't even had sex yet.
whoa.

it's my manager.
she's kind of suggesting that i re-accessorize.
sorry.
ignore me.
i'm not even here.
you're taking dating advice from your manager? no, not at all it's career advice.
and i just can't be seen with you in public for a little while.

i think i can.
good.
have fun.
relax.
oh, one other thing uh, guy rowland is gonna be in town for a few days.
he works for ourlient, cooperton manufacturing.
so you need me to talk to him? he knows a lot about the car locks that cooperton makes.
oh? like what? like whether they're faulty or not.
we need him to sign this statement saying that they're not.
this is this is already written.
do i need to bring someone as a witness to authenticate it? no, there's no need for that.
we already wrote this for him without his knowledge.
uh what if he doesn't agree to sign it? that's what you're there for, hillman.
don't leave without a signature.
you're authorized to do whatever it takes.
i have faith in you.
enjoy the hotel.
this is my very own recipe.
i call it "cynthia's carrot concoction.
" oh, i'm so sorry.
i could've sworn that i made enough for everyone.
you make your own baby food? do you know how many preservatives are in processed baby food? i'm sorry about what i said the other day.
i-i-i was nervous, and i-i wanted to fit in.
that's okay.
it must be hard for you at your age.
okay, ladies.
time to gather your babies.
playtime is over.
wait.
how how much would you pay for a cupcake? what? my friend and i are opening a cupcake store right over there, where the bakery used to be, and i'm just wondering how much you would pay for a top-of-the-line, delicious cupcake.
probably nothing.
we don't really give the kids sugar.
oh, yeah, look at that, baby.
"icing on the cupcake.
" huh.
so let me get this right.
you didn't hit him? no.
tried to hit him.
okay? but he moved.
i don't know.
this guy's weird.
he's like a boxer or something.
he slipped it.
you know what i mean? yeah.
yeah, i'm sure that's what it was.
so this is the guy that deena slept with don't say it.
yeah, don't say it, but yes.
anyway, this guy's just a pompous ass.
you know, i just wanted to hit him one good shot, you know? like you you with brian about the marjorie thing.
hey! hey, leave me out of this.
i didn't do anything with marjorie.
yeah, and what i did was wrong.
i mean, i shouldn't have hit brian.
i mean, people sleep with people.
i think we get all worked up about the sex thing of it all, you know? i mean, can't we all just, you know,be? wow, dude, you're freaking me out.
okay, okay.
let me ask you something.
speaking of sex, if you guys were going out with a super hot-rod girl i mean, you know, with best ass in two counties, and she didn't want you to be seen in public with her but hey, shut up.
but she did wanna lay around your apartment, make out, eat pizza and eventually have sex, would you do it? yeah! what's wrong with you? are you kidding me? what is this, some kind of joke or something? come on, man.
you're the luckiest guy on the planet.
you don't have to go out? who wants to go out? it's expensive.
it's boring.
you dot even have to go out and you still get thsex? that's fantastic! come on, brian.
have fun.
i mean, so what if you wear really bad socks? who cares? i mean, you don't wanna get serious after bridget anyway.
yeah.
you guys, deena's article's out.
come on.
"single and successful deena greco has been named l.
a.
's hottest cupcake.
" oh, wow.
when people see this picture, they're not gonna know if they're talking about you or the actual cupcakes.
good.
as long as people buy something.
sex sells, rht? okay, stop.
but i have to say, this is my second favorite magazine of the day.
look.
oh, my.
and here it comes.
okay, brian, white socks? really? what? that reminds me, man.
um we all got you something.
you know, it's a it's a gift, you know, from all of us.
we we all kind of chipped in.
yeah, we figured if you were gonna be the worst accessory, then you should have the worst accessory.
they're socks.
oh, wow.
you guys are the best.
you know, i'm gonna go out to my car and get the rest of this stuff, but, um, you know, while i'm gone, continue to make fun of me, okay? ohwe definitely will.
have no fear that will happen.
all right! it's funny how all of a sudden our friends are celebrities.
we've got brian and deena and stephanie and lil tammy.
okay.
oh, no.
okay, no, no.
that's enough.
come on.
what was it you used to say on "the lil tammy show"? no, dude.
dude, you do not wanna go there, okay? it's ugly.
she gets like the hulk.
it'll be okay.
come on.
tell us anyway.
come on.
we're all friends.
what is it? oh, oh, oh! i got it.
i got it.
it was, uh dude.
dude.
seriously.
it was, uh don't wowsers! okay, that's it.
why don't you do one for us? please? you owe us one, you know, for keeping your little secret.
oh, really? yeah.
but see, i'm not the only one that keeps secrets arod here.
i mean, for instance, you didn't tell us at you had sex with nicole.
wowsers! you weren't supposed to tell anyone.
you know, maybe if you didn't insult me to the rls or to deena's lesbian mother.
what? and you you weren't supposed to tell anyone, either.
it was a secret.
did you know about this? do you think i could keep this from you? so adam is the "nothing special" guy? well, yeah.
no! no, no, no was something special, okay? i was.
that's it.
enough! listen, brian doesn't know, all right? and i'd like to keep it that way, because if he finds out, he'll be pissed off.
so please, let's not tell him, okay? fine.
besides, things are finally back to normal between the two of us.
i'd like to keep them that way.
whew.
what? what'd i miss? if you're gonna blame someone here, maybe you should blame yourself for telling me in the first place.
what?! yeah, it's hard to look in the mirror, isn't it? you are insane.
and if it was a secret and you told me, then you're just as bad as i am.
no, no, no, no, i'm not.
have you heard of the marriage code? no! the marriage code, woman! a husband and wife are one unit.
if you tell one something, the other unit automatically finds out about it.
everyone knows that.
well, then, if that's true, then it is no big deal.
adam should've known that i knew.
ivy! you have a problem.
just admit it.
just admit it, please.
no, i won't! i won't! i won't! because you never told me it was a secret.
i so i think we've learned a valuable lesson here.
next time you should be more clear.
you've lost your mind! whatever.
wowsers! i hate you.
can you believe this whole nic and adam thing? i know.
it's crazy or perfect.
yeah.
i'm gonna be up all ni mm.
"single and successful deena greco" so what, did you tell them that you were single? i mean, did you make a point of it for the article? i don't know, dave.
probably.
i mean, i was, you know, at the time.
people are gonna think that we're divorced, and we're not divorced.
dave, it was a while ago.
just don't like to think about you as single.
that's all.
but i'm not single.
mm.

she says it's love that gets so rough announced well, if she's so pronounced hey! you guys should come in.

opening day special.
oh, so i take it you and bella aren't gonna make it to class today then? no, bella's home with the nanny.
i have to stay at the store today.
sure.
work is just more important to some people than it is to others.
i'm sure the nanny's a fine substitute.
you know what? i've had enough of you ladies, with your mean looks and your disapproval.
could you be more judgmental? i mean, your way is not the only way to raise a child.
my mother was crazy, and i turned out just fine.
excuse us.
thank you.
and by the way, the nanny he's a great kisser! well, that went pretty well, huh? yeah they'll probably stop by later.
love i bet you kids had no idea that right here, in the middle of your city, there were 3 million fossils buried from the ice age.
i love "ice age.
" it's my favorite movie.
mine, too.
truth be told, that movie had a lot of bad mistakes.
did not.
actually, it did.
i don't think it's a very good movie at all, factually speaking.
daddy, what's he talking about? hold on a second.
maybe we could take it easy with that stuff you know, sabertooths didn't actually talk.
we we get it.
are you gonna hit him? what? no.
you're you're gonna hit me? no.
daddy, are you gonna hit someone? no! he hit that man! i didn't hit that man, okay, bobby? you need to mind your own business.
'cause i'm starting to get a little mad, and i didn't get a lot of sleep last night, okay? did you apologize to him? my mom said you have to apologize whenever you misbehave.
would you like to see me apologize? fine.
i'm sorry that i hit you the other day.
no, there's no reason to apologize.
you you didn't even really hit me.
it was a nice try, though.
okay? now i'm sorry.
you happy now, bobby? i'm telling you, i don't wanna go.
i don't even like parties.
you'll like this one.
you'll get free stuff.
steph, let's just hangut upstairs.
i'm totally cool with it.
or just come over after thparty.
i know i look ridiculous.
no, you don't.
you look beautiful.
shut up.
where you going? to the party with you.
you're still goi, right? you can't make me go alone.
stephanie said you were coming.
wow.
you two i must have amazing karma.
most guys' downstairs neighbors are old ladies or weird guys with pimples, and i have, uh, you two.
and look at laura! who knew that she had such a hot bod undernth those sweats? yeah.
funny.
and you look pretty hot yourself.
just checking.
i don't have to act like i don't know you, do i? because i don't wanna go if no, no, no.
i have it all figured out.
we'll have a sign and meet up in the bathroom away from the cameras so we can fool aroun in secret.
i'll scrat my nose.
a girl scratching her nose is so hot.
so are we going? oh, who am i to say no to karma? what are we doing still standing here? ladies hmm.
i saw you.
saw me what? this reminds me of my high school parties.
you must have gone to a sweet high school.
that's not what i mean.
i would just stand in the corner, talking to the only other loser there.
no offense.
none taken.
but here's the thing girls who were losers didn't have it as bad as guys who were losers.
that is such crap.
you didn't have to get a stomachache getting up the nerve to ask the girl you likedo prom, only to have her say no because she actually had a crush on your best friend and didn't want to give him the wrong message.
but that never happened to you.
no, but it could have.
um, stephanie's scratching her nose so hard that she's gonna hurt herself.
i guess i i'd better i just feel you can't live the part, you can't feel the part.
you know what i'm saying? uh-huh.
hey! hey.
hey, bro.
i'll take another martini.
two olives this time.
yeah, yeah.
i'll get right on that.
did you just give me the sign? y ou have to get me away from this guy.
hey, you're that actor jared fox.
indeed.
you suck.
thank you! glad i could help.
i'll, um i'll see you later.
where were we? adam hillman? guy rowland.
pleasure.
please have a seat.
you understand why we're here, right? that's what we're about to find out.
well, you should know that if you don't agree with this affidavit, or if it's inaccurate in any way, you shouldn't sign it.
well, then i probably shouldn't waste my time reading it.
we both know it's not accurate.
i mean, unless it says cooperton manufacturing sold faulty locks to car companies.
does it say that, Mr.
hillman? no, it doesn't.
does it say that people could die that people have died because of these locks? you know, Mr.
rowland, that's but, hey, what's a couple of lives compared to a cheaper cost? it's all about cost-benefit analysis, right? you know, maybe we need to talk about this some other if i really gave you the truth, you'd have no case, and my employers would be out of business.
but if i sign, then it's all just an accident, right? don't worry, hillman.
