Mistresses (US) s04e01 Episode Script

The New Girls

1 And he had this way of taking care of me without me knowing it.
Do you hear yourself? Um, it's the voice of a woman who's completely in love with Marc.
He quit? Just like that? He mentioned something about going off the grid for a while.
Previously on "Mistresses" [Exhales sharply.]
I love you, April.
I'm pregnant.
What?! - Who? - Alec.
And Vivian.
This baby is the universe showing us that we're supposed to all be together.
Vivian! [Siren wails.]
[Gasping.]
What if I got Luca in bed long enough for us to catch it on camera? Calista: You're one twisted sister.
[Gasps.]
Oh, my God! Libby: You are under arrest for the murder of Luca Raines.
David: Being charged with co-conspiracy.
They think you did it together.
I killed my husband alone.
She cared about you, apparently.
Joss: Calista sent me a gift basket.
That's not possible.
She's in prison.
I know how it sounds, detective.
I think that the real killer may still be out there.
Pack your bags, baby.
You're gonna cook on the continent.
Damn it, Joss, where are you? They're ready to take off.
Hello? Hello? Is anyone here? Just get on the next flight, okay? Oh, my God, Calista?! Wilson? - [Gun cocks.]
- [Gasps.]
Wilson: Where you going, lovely? I definitely felt my life was in danger.
And I knew I didn't have much time.
And did he seem mentally impaired in any way? Man: Objection.
Calls for speculation.
Overruled.
You can answer.
Did he seem insane? Other than the outfit and the terrible wig, absolutely not.
Wilson knew exactly what he was doing even in the way he detailed why he killed Luca Raines, it was very matter-of-fact.
He wanted revenge on Calista for firing him and ending the affair, and he also hated Luca, which is why he was trying to frame her for the murder.
Your honor! Miss Carver, please.
Just answer the questions asked of you.
Sorry.
[Breathes deeply.]
No, he did not seem like a crazy person.
[Grunts.]
[Panting.]
He told me that I was collateral damage and that he never meant for me to be caught in the middle of all this.
And that's when he let you go.
[Panting.]
Basically, yes.
Thank you, Miss Carver.
[Indistinct conversations.]
How was it to be face-to-face with Wilson Corvo again? Did he hurt you that night? Do you have any statement? - Listen, buddy, I - Excuse me.
- Ohh.
- Sorry.
- Hi.
- Hi.
So, how did it go? Um, I think it went well.
We're so proud of you for doing this.
Though we wish we could have been there for you.
Oh, I know.
Thank you for even coming.
You didn't need to.
Of course we did.
So, how do you feel? I'm I'm fine.
Good.
You should celebrate.
Mm, let's wait for a verdict first.
Still, it's been a rough year.
You should at least take a moment.
You guys, I'm fine.
I swear.
I don't need a moment.
I could use a drink, though.
- [Laughs.]
- Let's go.
[Both chuckle.]
[Footsteps depart.]
[Birds chirping.]
Oh, man, get a room! We have a room.
It's just not furnished yet.
You all ready? Yep, Peyton just texted me.
Her mom's gonna be here in a second to get us to the school, to the bus, to the airport.
Oh, boy.
[Sighs.]
What? I'm just proud of you, sweetheart.
Going to a leadership conference by yourself in the state capital.
Sacramento, Mom, not a year in Spain.
I'll be back in two days.
[Horn honks.]
Okay.
If you need anything, call me.
- Okay.
- When you land, call me.
- When you go to sleep - Call her.
She gets it, April.
Thank you.
- [Door closes.]
- [Sighs.]
Well There she goes.
That's it.
She's in ninth grade, April.
She's got three more years of high school.
She's not going anywhere.
But it's there, right in front of me a big fat nest of emptiness.
I think you're going a little off the rails.
Look at the bright side.
While Lucy's up in Sacramento learning about whatever it is they do up there, you and I have the place to ourselves.
Hmm.
So you think we should christen the new bedroom? I'm thinking maybe we should.
Mm-hmm.
"Passion can come in many forms, many varieties.
The first time I felt this passion, it was as if a wild animal inside me had been released.
When I met Charlie, I had no idea how much he would change my life.
" Is this weird that I'm reading this out loud to you? I've only known you for a week.
No, no, no.
It's it's totally normal.
You don't want to go in there cold.
Hey, I'm an actor.
I get it.
You got to rehearse.
This is a rehearsal.
[Sighs.]
Oh, I know.
I'm just so nervous about this event.
I've never done anything like it before.
- Come on.
Come on.
- [Sighing.]
Okay.
"How much he would awaken this desire in me, a desire that had always been there.
" Whoa! Whoa, Robert.
What are you doing? Uh, I I don't know.
You're you're my nanny.
Uh This couldn't be more inappropriate.
Yeah, I-I-I'm I'm sorry.
I I just thought, uh That I wanted you to kiss me? Why? [Vivian cries.]
Oh.
I'll get her.
No, no, no, no.
Please, I'll I'll get her.
It's my job.
At least let me do my job.
[Crying continues.]
Ohh.
- [Cellphone ringing, vibrating.]
- Mnh-mnh.
[Groans.]
Mnh-mnh.
No.
[Sighs.]
Hello? You're not gonna believe what just happened.
What is it? What is it? - Oh, God.
- Is the baby okay? - [Vivian fussing.]
- Here she comes! Oh, crap, got to go.
The baby's fine.
Talk to you later, bye.
How's my little girl? Come here.
[Gasps.]
[Fusses.]
Ohh.
Thank you.
Oh, my God.
It's okay.
It's okay.
It's okay.
[Clears throat.]
Have you seen my guitar? Tommy should be here in, like, 15 minutes.
Um, I think it's in the kitchen, next to the microwave.
- Which one's Tommy? - [Chuckles.]
The kid who's great at picking his nose but not the guitar.
Look, if you want to stop giving lessons, we moved into a smaller, cheaper place for a reason.
No, absolutely not.
I got to pay my share of rent.
That's why I'm doing all these jobs.
Well, once you start school, you're done with all of that.
We have a plan.
Yeah, I know.
But you realize getting this counseling degree is gonna take some time with no income coming in.
I know, and I'm fine with it.
I'm just proud you're gonna turn a rough period in your life into something positive.
Well, hey, if I can't drink, I might as well talk to other people about their drinking, right? You know, to help them, obviously.
In the meantime, what do you think about turning the back room into a kind of music room? [Cellphone chimes, vibrates.]
Oh, do not check Lucy's Instagram.
She hasn't taken off yet.
Exactly! Who knows what she's doing in the airport? [Cellphone rings, vibrates.]
Hello? [Indistinct voice.]
I'll be right there.
Did you check the invoice before you left? Did I really order 800 candles? That's what the form said.
I figured maybe candles were just selling really well.
- [Bells jingle.]
- [Scoffs.]
You go with your people.
I am on it.
Don't you worry.
Okay.
What was going on when you called me? You sounded like you were freaking out.
- Oh, she slept with her manny.
- What?! I did not.
[Snorts.]
Okay, what? She didn't sleep with the manny.
But it's a way better story than she almo slept with her manny.
I didn't do that, either.
He tried to kiss me.
I didn't let him.
That's all that happened.
Okay, hold on.
First question is, when did you get a manny? What happened to Charlotte? - She wasn't working out.
Ohh.
- Karen! Vivian is four months old, and you've already had three nannies who "haven't worked out.
" Who are you waiting for, Mary Poppins? Not when she's got this guy.
This is Robert.
He's an actor.
He's cute.
This is a terrible idea.
I'm not gonna lie, he's hot.
So you think I should fire him? Because I don't want to.
Because he's the best one I've had so far, not because he's hot.
Well, so then don't fire him.
But probably don't have sex with him, either.
Oh, I'm not going to.
It's not like he's done anything like that before.
Oh, I bet it would have been really good.
I'm sorry.
I'm haven't had sex in months, okay? Not since I met up with Harry in Milan.
Is he ever coming home? Yes.
Actually, next week.
I know! Um, thank God! I have a million things to tell him.
But he knows what's going on in the trial, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course.
It's just it's gonna be so much better in person, you know? The long-distance thing has been okay, but FaceTiming is not as good as actual face time.
I want him home.
It's like an echo chamber down there.
But look how productive you were while he was gone.
Your little party-planning thing is now a real P.
R.
business.
Yeah, she's right.
You've bn so focused on this.
It's impressive.
It's like I'm a grownup or something.
[Chuckles.]
So, is the book-reading still happening this weekend? Um, it is on like Donkey Kong, Miss Karen Kim, author/sex therapist.
And, listen to me, I'm trying to get Barbara Rutledge to come and hear you, okay? - Who? - What?! She's one of the biggest literary agents around.
It If she takes you on as a client, you're basically guaranteed a second book, Karen.
Great.
Even more reason to be nervous.
[Cellphone chimes, vibrates.]
Okay, the, uh jury's back.
I got to go.
Do you want us to come with you? No, no, no.
I'm "In the case of the People of the State of California vs.
Wilson Corvo, as to the charge of first-degree murder of Luca Raines, we the jury find the defendant guilty.
" [Spectators murmur.]
[Door opens.]
Hard to believe it's over, isn't it? Yeah.
- It's crazy, huh? - Mm.
I'm sure Calista Raines will be thrilled.
- Have you spoken? - Uh Only a few times since she got out of the hospital.
I wanted to thank you for your testimony.
It really helped.
I'm just glad he got what he deserved.
Me too.
But you've been through a lot, Joss from finding a dead body to being held at gunpoint.
Have you considered talking to someone, a professional? Reliving it can be difficult.
Yeah, I-I don't know what you think you know, but I'm I'm really just glad it's all over.
Now I can get on with my life.
I'm just saying, I've seen people go through things like this before.
And if you don't deal with it in some way, it won't go away.
Yeah, thanks for your advice.
You take care, okay? [Door opens.]
[Lid clatters.]
Ow.
[Door opens.]
Jennifer Jones' birthday party is next week.
Okay, um, get her two bottles of red wine The Justin.
Okay, how about a coffee-table book of the Caribbean? It's her favorite place to vacation.
- Great.
- Okay.
Karen Kim book party is all set up.
Did you send Barbara Rutledge a copy of Karen's book? - Yes, today.
- Okay.
Anything else? Yeah, uh I was just wondering how you're doing the verdict happening and all that.
Because if you wanted to talk No, Kylie, I don't need to talk about anything.
Really, it's The trial's over, it's all good in the hood.
Tell everybody at the office the same.
It's all about the work now, okay? Okay.
Please don't fire me.
I could not return those candles.
I'm not firing you.
It's okay.
[Cellphone chiming.]
Wow, your Instagram is blowing up.
It's not my Instagram.
It's Lucy's.
I just monitor it.
Oh, that makes more sense.
You're a little too A little what? [Chiming, vibrating continue.]
Hey, look at that more likes.
Wow, he's cute.
Is that her boyfriend? Boyfriend?! Lucy doesn't have a boyfriend.
- She's 14.
- [Chuckles.]
Right, totally.
14, not when I had my first boyfriend definitely not I'm gonna go help someone.
[Sighs.]
- Hello? - Oh, hey.
Uh, sorry.
I I didn't hear you come in.
I-I was just washing my shirt.
Vivian spit up on it again.
Oh, so sorry.
No need for you to apologize.
It's not like you're the one who did it.
[Clears throat.]
Um, speaking of apologies uh, Karen, I-I just wanted to tell you how how how sorry I was about what happened this morning.
Hey, forget it.
It was a mistake, right? Yes.
Totally.
Totally a mistake.
Thank you.
Because I I love this job.
You know, I-I-I love taking care of Vivian.
I still have time to go on auditions.
You have more time to work.
Uh, speaking of which, are you going to write another book? Uh, I think so.
I'd like to.
Oh, you you should.
You totally should.
Um, I read the first few chapters of yours, and I was riveted.
Is all that true? Yeah, all of it.
And, uh Rachel dying? Oh, man, I'm I'm so sorry.
That that must have been so tough.
It was.
Her name was actually Vivian.
That's who my Vivian is named after.
Oh.
And, uh what about Charlie? Where's he? Oh, his name is Alec.
After Vivian died, he couldn't really handle it here.
So, what, he he just took off, leaving you and his baby all alone? Pretty much.
He's in Costa Rica, working with Doctors Without Borders.
[Siren wails in distance.]
You know, can we change the subject? Yes.
Yes, totally.
[Clears throat.]
Hey, uh, you uh, still nervous about your book reading? Can we change the subject again? Come on.
You're gonna be fine.
Trust me.
I know these things.
[Guitar playing.]
Hey! Hey, babe.
- This is my friend, Jonah.
- Hey.
He moved here a little while ago and started a band.
And there might be a spot for me.
[Gasps.]
That is great news, babe! Mm.
- So I - [Guitar playing.]
Dude, you can stop playing now.
We don't need background music.
Sorry, man.
I'll pack it up.
So, uh I think I might take the next six months and and, like, really give this music thing a shot, like, focus on it.
Starting those guitar lessons made me realize how much I miss it.
Well, that sounds great, but do you think you can do this and school at the same time? Yeah, see, that's the thing.
I-I don't think so.
But the great news is I could always start school next year if this doesn't work out.
- Right? - [Guitar clatters.]
Sorry.
Uh I, uh, need to go take a shower.
Uh, rough day at work.
[Sighs.]
[Footsteps depart.]
[Dog barks in distance.]
[Keys jingle.]
[Grunts.]
[Insects chirping.]
[Door creaking.]
[Dialing.]
[Ringing.]
Woman: 911.
What is your emergency? I think someone's broken into my house.
[Insects chirping.]
Oh, I I don't know if they're still here.
But can you please just send the police? Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on! - [Gasps.]
- No, no.
Oh, my God! Are you freaking kidding me?! Woman: Excuse me? No, I'm s Ma'am, I'm sorry.
That wasn't for you.
I It's a it's a it's a false alarm here.
Fine.
- What are you - Hey! What is wrong with you?! - Aah! Ohh! - God! - [Chuckles.]
- Hi! What the hell is wrong with you? You scared the crap out of me.
Well, I thought I'd come home early and surprise you.
Apparently, it worked.
Oh! Mm! [Smooching.]
You're lucky I missed you so much.
- You okay? - Mm-hmm.
I love what you've done with the place.
[Gasps.]
Oh, my God! You haven't even seen it all put together.
[Gasps.]
Baby, baby.
Wait until you see what I did in the bedroom.
- Oh, yeah? - Mm-hmm.
Oh.
Oh! [Chuckles.]
Thank you.
You betcha.
So what's it feel like to be a big celebrity? Oh.
Wouldn't say big celebrity.
More like medium-size celebrity chef.
- Hmm.
- Well, how's this? A woman actually recognized me in the airport.
- No! - Oh, yeah.
Oh, she thought I was that guy from "The Mentalist.
" - Oh, yeah.
- Yeah, it happens.
Aw, baby! You're like my little TV star.
Ha.
You're like, um, Anthony Bourdain, except you're better-looking and less of a jerk.
[Chuckles.]
I wish I could have stayed home longer than a week.
Oh You were here when I needed you the most the beginning.
I was the one that made you go back.
I couldn't have you missing an opportunity like that.
Yeah, I appreciate it, babe.
I did try and get back before the trial ended.
I really did.
It was You're sweet.
It's all good.
So, how are you feeling now that it's all done? Um, okay.
I'm I'm really happy it's over.
Really, you sure? Can't have been easy having to testify like that I'm fine.
I'm I'm just gonna, you know, think about the future.
I'm like a, um like a shark, you know? I'm just gonna keep swimming, moving forward Or is that salmon? You know, I can't whatever.
Anyway, you know what I mean.
Yeah.
Did you get a new watch? Oh, yeah, I bought myself a little present.
Oh! Wow! [Chuckling.]
Look at you, Mr.
Fancy Pants! Ah, yes, my pants are quite fancy.
- Hmm! - [Cellphone ringing.]
Oh.
Wait no, wait! Where are you going?! Sorry, this is work stuff.
I have to get it.
It's about the, um, site for the new restaurant, which you really need to see, by the way.
Two minutes, don't move.
Hello.
Yes.
[Door closes.]
So, what did you say when Marc told you? Nothing, I just clenched my teeth and smiled.
That sounds awkward.
And weird-looking.
It was, especially since Jeremy was right there.
I thought his name was Jonah.
My boyfriend blows off the idea of school to try and join a band, and you're focused on the name of his strange friend? I mean, we just moved in together, and he is making unilateral decisions.
Instead of making weird, smiley, clenched-teeth faces, maybe you should talk to him.
I know.
I know.
He just seems so excited.
I didn't want to burst his bubble.
Who does a guy have to know to get some service around here? - What?! - When did you get here? - I got in last night.
- Hi! Did Joss know you were coming? I can't believe she didn't tell us.
Come here.
She did not know.
In fact, she almost had me arrested for scaring the crap out of her.
[Both laugh.]
Where is she? She's busy, working.
Said something about someone giving some book to the wrong Barbara Rutledge, and now she had to go find the right Barbara.
Made no sense to me.
Does she seem okay to you? Yeah, she seems fine.
But I did just get back last night.
Why? We think she seems a little too fine.
There was no way she wasn't affected by the trial anyone would be.
I gave her a bunch of names of therapists, but she never called any of them.
Okay.
I'll talk to her later.
So where can I find Marc? [Claps.]
Thought I'd say hello.
Oh, he's at the new place.
I'll give you the address.
He will be so happy.
He has been dying for you to get back.
Weirdly so.
[Laughs.]
- Look at your hair.
- Oh.
- It's lovely.
- Thank you.
[Knock on door.]
- Ah! - Hey, hey! It's so good to see you, man! You too, mate.
Hey.
Look at this place.
This is very nice.
Wow.
You're really moving up in the world, huh? Well, it's all April.
Everything I suggest, she agrees to, and then she does whatever she wants.
I'm trying to make the back room a kind of music room, and she seems less than thrilled.
Oh, that's why I told Joss to do whatever she wanted while I was gone.
It is not worth the fight, and, hey, she's got better taste than me, right? It took me months to realize you don't actually throw throw pillows.
[Chuckles.]
So what's new, man? Come on.
Who cares about what's new with me? What's going on with you? Your show was amazing.
You're basically famous.
Your face was on billboards.
Really? Billboards? No, magazine ads, but still Huh.
How's it going with Joss? Things still good? Was it hard doing a long-distance thing? Yeah, okay.
[Sighs.]
I really need to tell you a secret, but you cannot say a word.
Okay.
Thank you.
[Sighs.]
- [Stammers.]
- Hi.
- You're Barbara Rutledge, right? - Yes.
- I'm Josslyn Carver.
- Hold it.
The one from the Calista Raines trial? Uh, yeah, but that's not what I So, tell me, was that guy really wearing a kaftan and a wig? I guess so, but we we can talk about that later.
Right now, I really need you to read this book and come to a launch party tonight for the author, Karen Kim.
Oh! I get it.
You're mentally ill from the trail.
I am so sorry.
I'm mentally fine.
Just, please, please read this and come and hear Karen.
It would be a great opportunity for the both of you.
I promise you won't be disappointed.
Look, Josslyn, no offense, but I don't have time to read every book that gets shoved in my face.
- Okay? - Okay, wait okay, fine! No, I get it, you're busy.
It's no problem.
Um, you just keep walking, and I'll just I'll just read you a little ex excerpt from it so that you can get a little taste, okay? "But once I got on top of him, I glimpsed at the two of us in the mirror and I had to admit I was turned on by what I saw.
" Okay, please, stop it! Goodbye now.
[Sighs.]
- [Car door closes.]
- [Thud.]
[Engine starts.]
Oh, get lost, pervert.
[Guitar playing.]
[Sour note plays.]
I've texted Lucy three times, and she still hasn't answered.
Maybe 'cause you texted her three times.
It's just weird not having heard from her.
What do you think she's doing? Ah, she's probably learning how a bill becomes a law.
I don't know.
Why are you so stressed? Are you sure this is the right decision? I assume you mean the music thing? I could tell you weren't thrilled.
I'm just wondering if it's the right time for it.
Just because we had the plan, you know? Oh, I know, babe.
I hear you.
I-I totally do.
It's just the more I thought about it, the more I realized the school thing wasn't really speaking to me.
It wasn't speaking to you? April, you've known who I am for a year now.
All right, I'm not some guy with a 9:00 to 5:00.
I've always had bigger dreams for myself.
See this is what I was worried about when we moved in together.
And what exactly is that? That I'd end up busting my ass in the store 9:00 to 7:00, by the way, while you played around.
I'm not playing around.
Come on.
You can't blame a guy for following his passion, can you? No, but at some point, you also need to be responsible.
I am responsible.
But I also need to be happy we both do.
What's the point of being responsible if you're miserable? Well, not everything can be so easy! This is a relationship with two people, and I just don't want to be the only adult.
We did have a plan.
Man, what is up with you lately? First, you're freaking out about Lucy going away, and now you can't stop talking about the plan like we signed a contract! That's not true.
I am just trying to explain that there are dreams and there's reality.
Oh, so you think the band's a dumb idea and that I'm gonna fail? I didn't say that.
No, you didn't, but you're making it pretty clear you think it.
[Sighs.]
What would you say if the sun went away? - Would you fill up the stars? - [Bells jingle.]
Love what you've done with my place.
April, thank you so much for letting us use it.
It's the perfect mix of intimate and impressive.
Hmm.
And cheap, right? Mm.
Okay, I need to make sure no one's shoplifting.
Oh.
It's too good to be true Wowza! Hello! Hi.
- You are one hot mama.
- Really? All I know is your boobs look amazing.
- [Laughs.]
- [Vivian cries.]
Oh.
Hello, honey.
Um, what's Vivian doing here? Where's hot manny? Oh, on his way.
He had an audition, but he should be here soon.
- Okay.
- [Fusses.]
Okay, I know.
I know it's probably not ideal to have my baby here when I'm supposed to be selling sex Unh.
Not a problem.
I will watch Vivian.
You go and mingle and be a successful author.
- [Sighs.]
Okay.
- Go.
Hi.
Yes, I know.
I know.
[Rattling.]
[Indistinct conversations.]
[Woman laughs.]
So, if you can just make sure you get a picture of her actually reading, and if you can catch, like, a sexy librarian look or something, that would be amazeballs.
Thank you.
Hey.
Hey! Where have you been? Sorry, I have to deal with the final paperwork for the site.
How's it going here? This looks great! Good, good, I think.
Uh, though Barbara Rutledge is a no-show, - which sucks for Karen.
- [Camera shutter clicks.]
[Crying.]
- Oh.
- Oh.
Is this ours? - No [Chuckles.]
- [Bells jingle.]
She's here.
Um, can you just watch Vivian, please? - Yeah.
- Thank you.
Okay.
Hello.
Come here, huh? How are you? [Coos.]
[Chuckling.]
What was that? Right.
Barbara Rutledge, Dr.
Karen Kim.
Nice to meet you.
I actually didn't know you were coming.
Well, I wasn't planning on it.
But your P.
R.
lady attacked me on the street and started reading your book out loud, and I was impressed.
Not with you, with the book.
I can't wait to hear more tonight.
And I also can't wait for you to get me something alcoholic to drink.
Yes! I'm on it.
Uh, you two, talk, get to know each other.
Thank you so much for coming.
I really Look, I'm not making any promises.
I rep a lot of writers, and I only sign ones I believe in or who can make me a lot of money.
[Camera shutter clicks.]
Before I begin, I just wanted to tell you a little bit about why I wrote this book.
After my friend passed away and her husband moved, I found myself all alone.
I was pregnant and without the two people I had spent the last two years of my life with.
[Breathes deeply.]
I was lost.
And [Bells jingle.]
- [Sighs.]
- [Camera shutter clicks.]
I was lost and depressed, and I knew if I didn't get my feelings out in some way, they'd just keep building up until they exploded.
So I wrote.
And wrote some more and discovered that I liked writing.
And before I knew it, I had finished the book, a book that ended up bringing me back to life.
[Applause.]
Okay.
"To be honest with your partner, you have to be honest with yourself.
Not just about what you feel, but about what you want.
" You okay? Yeah, yeah, yeah, you just surprised me.
"Because, remember, if it's your passion, don't deny yourself or your heart.
" I'm not sure it could have been more embarrassing.
Of course it could have.
I'm thinking! I saw Barbara's face.
She looked appalled.
I don't think she's gonna represent me now.
I wasn't exactly exuding sex.
Well, you were exuding something.
[Both laughing.]
I'm glad someone finds it funny.
I don't even know how you made it up there tonight.
After I had Lucy, all I wanted to do was stay home, watch TV, and eat a pint of Haagen-Dazs.
Oh, I remember.
You were obsessed with mint chip.
- Ohh.
- [Chuckles.]
The point is, we're proud of you for doing so much.
Yeah.
The book, the practice back up and running.
It's a lot.
Well, thanks.
I just wish the reading had been more of a success.
I feel like I let you down.
- Stop.
- Please, you were awesome, okay? A little breast milk never hurt anybody.
[Laughter.]
Hey, what was up with that fancy watch Harry had going on? You buy that for him? No, he bought it for himself.
- Yeah.
- Hmm.
Strange, right? He didn't even bring me a croissant nothing.
I don't know.
Maybe I'm crazy.
I feel like something's off.
It feels like he's keeping something from me.
You a crazy.
It's a readjustment period.
Just give it time.
[Sighs.]
Yeah.
[Insects chirping.]
Marc.
[Whispering.]
Marc.
Marc! What, what, call 911! Relax, Marc, there's no emergency.
[Sighing.]
Oh, thank God.
What's wrong? Nothing.
I just wanted to apologize.
For waking me up? That doesn't make a whole lot of sense.
No.
For being wrong.
What the hell is going on here? I was wrong.
Listening to Karen talk about passion and honesty tonight, I realized that I wasn't mad at you, I was jealous of you.
What? Why? Because you have something you're passionate about, and I don't know what I have.
I used to be an artist, and then I had a kid and put it on hold.
And then I had the store, and that became my life.
Now Lucy's getting older, and I'm just a crazy woman checking her daughter's Instagram account every five minutes.
[Chuckles.]
I just feel a little Lost? Disoriented? Confused? All of the above.
Well, you still have the store.
Yeah, I guess.
But I think I'm gonna give more responsibility to Randy.
Really? To Randy? Why? So I can step away.
There's this painting fellowship I read about.
And if I'm gonna figure out a way to do it, I'm gonna have to let go of the store a little bit.
It will be good practice for when Lucy goes.
[Cellphone chimes.]
[Sighs.]
Oh.
Yeah, you could definitely use a little practice with letting go.
The point is as confused as everything may be, living with you is not something I'm confused about.
[Chuckles.]
[Rhythmic knock on door.]
Barbara! Your P.
R.
lady gave me your address.
So, despite the breast malfunction, which is why I formula fed, FYI, I was impressed with what you had to say.
Thank you.
I read your book, and I loved it.
If you're interested, I think we can do big things together.
And, by the way, your husband is yum.
My husband? Yeah, the guy with your baby last night? Oh, no, that's my nanny.
Nanny? Really? Well, for now, at least.
You have my offer, but be quick about deciding.
I don't just make house calls for anyone.
Talk soon.
[Exhales sharply.]
[Door closes.]
I accept! I know! [Sighs.]
Where exactly are we going? Patience, my dear, patience.
It's hard to be patient when it's this cold.
I'm sorry.
Here.
- Oh.
- [Clears throat.]
[Laughs.]
Okay.
- Better? - Yes.
- Are we almost there? - You know what? You need to close your eyes at this point.
Okay.
- Yeah.
Closed? - Mm-hmm.
Here we go.
I needed sunshine in the darkness burning out - Ooh! - We're turning.
We're turning.
- Gotcha.
- Okay.
Okay, you can open them.
So this is this is where the new bistro will be.
We are bound to each other's hearts Are we having a date night? We are.
Just thought we could use some alone time.
I totally agree.
So can you see it the future? Well, I'm trying, but I'm not really good with spacial relations.
No, I'm not talking about the restaurant now, Joss.
I'm talking about us.
Can't stop this breaking loose Our future.
[Gasps.]
No, you're not.
Josslyn Carver, will you marry me? Like wildfire Well, this is usually the part where you give some kind of Yes! Yes! Definitely yes! What are you what did you Is this why you've been running around, being all crazy and acting weird? Yes! You're a very hard woman to keep a secret from.
It's like wildfire Oh, my God, I love you.
And to my word now I'll be true I love you.
I can't stop this breaking loose This love No, no, I swear, I knew nothing about it.
But I am so excited for you guys! We're celebrating tomorrow.
Okay.
Love you! [Gasps.]
[Laughs.]
Can you believe Harry proposed? Well, yeah, 'cause I kind of already knew.
What?! You knew and didn't tell me? I couldn't.
I promised Harry.
It's bro code.
The what now? Whatever code you have with Harry is trumped by me, okay? I am the one you're sleeping with.
- [Chuckles.]
- [Horn honks.]
Ah, saved by the horn.
Now, be cool when she gets here, okay? Don't go all helicopter mom.
[Laughs.]
Hi! So, how was it? Oh, my God, it was so amazing! Everything was so cool.
I took so many pictures, I ran out of room on my phone.
[Both chuckle.]
Even met the governor, watched state senate.
- Wow.
- I know.
I kind of want to do debate now.
I think I'd be pretty good at it.
Don't you think? I do.
So, you make any new friends? A few.
Got some numbers, no one special.
So who's this boy, Noel? [Dog barks in distance.]
The boy you took the selfies with.
He's just a boy that goes to school that was on the trip.
That's all? Because there's more pictures of Noel than any Sacramento landmarks.
Everyone takes selfies.
It's what we do.
That's what they do.
Did you spend the whole time I was gone on my Instagram? Not the whole time, no, but a lot.
You're my little girl, and you always will be.
So I worry.
[Sighs.]
Well, you don't have to.
Noel is just a kid that goes to school with me.
Maybe you're the one that needs less screen time, Mom.
Think about it.
I'm gonna go unpack.
Not a word.
[TV chatter.]
You know what? Don't touch me.
We are done.
This is nice.
Right? [Coos.]
Right? - [Cooing.]
- Mm.
You can't have this now.
But someday, you're gonna love it.
- Love it.
- [Coos.]
[Chuckles.]
[Inhales deeply.]
[Insects chirping.]
[Cellphone chimes, vibrates.]
[Clicking.]
Whoa.
You're going out so early.
I'll be back in an hour or two.
Unbelievable.
One day engaged, and the magic is gone.
[Chuckles.]
The magic is never going anywhere.
Mm.
Have fun.
Trying to lose myself again Trying to lose [Grunting.]
I've been hanging around This ugly town Trying to find myself again And it's time I live my life [Grunting continues.]
Ohh! Are you okay? Keep on feeling good Just like I always should
