Workin' Moms (2017) s07e12 Episode Script

We are getting there!
Hey, Gena! How's it goin' over there?
- I'm a little light-headed!
- Well, keep it up!
You're needed in the food truck ASAP!
Cool.
There no room in the
budget for a balloon pump?
Did your mom just put
together the greatest fun fair
in the history of St. Celine's?
- Yeah.
- Yeah, she did!
Holy shit!
This is the fun fair you
were supposed to help with?
This is the fair I did help with,
if anybody asks.
How fun is this, guys?
Look, I know, I like it back here too,
but the WiFi is off now,
and we're at the fun fair.
So let's have some, shall we?
Oh, hey, there's Lionel.
Hey, Lionel!
Great. That means Anne's here too.
What are you gonna say to her?
You know what? I'm a grown-up.
I'm gonna say my piece, she'll say hers.
We'll both be fine.
That's very mature of you.
It's pretty sexy.
I'm a sexy mature lady!
Well, if it isn't
the beautiful Foster family
here at the fun fair!
Lionel, how are you? Where's Anne?
Uh
Yeah, she's actually at home.
Ironing.
Oh, for fuck's sake.
I'm sorry, what?
We both know you do the ironing, Lionel!
She's avoiding me, isn't she?
Well, I came here as an adult,
mature, sophisticated, bat mitzvahed.
But Anne clearly wants to be a baby.
Well, boo-hoo, wah-wah-wah,
big baby want to stay home,
pretend to iron in her
little play castle!
Oh, big baby wants to take a nap?
I don't know what's what
Did you make sure that she
had a clean little baby vagina
before you put on her diaper?
- Did you clean her tushie?
- Kate!
Sorry, but she's being ridiculous.
If she's a baby,
that makes you the babysitter.
Remember that.
What's your hourly rate,
you little bitch?
Okay.
Welcome, one and all,
to the St. Celine's spring fun fair!
First off, don't forget to sign up
for the grand finale,
the mummies vs daddies
three-legged foot race.
Winner gets one year free tuition!
What?
I'm I'm kidding, of course!
That would never happen.
But please sign up.
Oh, and um, an enormous thank you
to parents Kate Foster
and Jenny Matthews
for their gruelling work
putting this day together.
Well, Kate didn't do shit!
Well, I found the sponsor, didn't I?
And I would be remiss if I didn't thank
our generous sponsor,
Wynston Publishing.
Hey
Be sure to stop by the Wynston booth
to get your very own
book worm hat!
Did she just put a penis on her head?
- Yep.
- Mommy, I want one of those!
Let the fun begin!
Hey-hey! Look who it is!
- Hey!
- Oh, boy.
Now, these
these are supposed to be?
These are book worms.
Uh-huh. You know they sorta
Look like penises?
Why do you think I was so
eager to get rid of 'em?
Would you like a hat, Ella?
Uh, don't you dare put
that on my child's head!
Also, thank you for your patronage.
Of course.
Oh!
Oh, shit. Uh
Stay with auntie Sloane, okay?
- You got her for a sec?
- Yeah.
Hey, how about
Did I not ask for a day off?
I'm sorry, but I knew
letting this go on any longer
would make you even more mad.
Go on
So, remember that woman from Salubra,
Janine McNulty,
- tried to poach us?
- Uh-huh.
How would you feel about
us reaching out to her?
Not great!
Because we kinda already did.
Without consulting me?!
The team wasn't exactly thrilled
to hear you dropped Fronterra
so suddenly, for no reason.
I I have my reasons.
She doesn't get to be mad at us!
We're mad at her!
Shh! Anyway
We left Janine a message,
so I just wanted to let you
know before she calls us back.
Don't you dare commit to anything else
without my sign-off, okay?
And also, leave me alone.
It's the fun fair!
I intend on having fun.
Here you go.
Hey!
You think we could get a fan in here?
Well, you got a fan right here!
Look at you go!
Not in the mood. I feel like I'm dying.
Well, you can't die.
You're too important!
Anyway, I will put a fan on the list.
Please don't forget to introduce
me to the headmaster today.
Okay? Remember, "this is Gena,
"the mom doing all the free labour
"in hopes of her son
attending your school"?
I-I'll even make her a special hot dog!
Of course! It's top of my list.
After the fan. Before the fan
You know what, never mind,
I will do both.
Jenny! You texted "911"?
Oh!
People need me, see?
Keep up the great work.
Wipe that forehead.
I But
Hi!
- Hi.
- Hey!
Uh, so, I signed you up
for the three-legged race,
and I don't want to hear
a word about it, since
I didn't do anything, I know.
But, look, you didn't need me!
I mean, you should throw more events!
Well, I would, but you fired me.
That wasn't your job
at Kate Foster PR
You know what? It doesn't matter.
Listen,
I was gonna talk to Charlie about
whatever's going on between him and Zoe.
That would be great.
I mean, Zoe's just been such
a sweetie-pie, perfect gem.
I mean, she's really just
trying her best with him.
So cute.
Okay, I will see you at the race.
Alright!
Uh, why is Charlie holding your bag?
My assistants take turns carrying it.
Um, okay, Anna Wintour, get it!
Hey, not really giving off
fun fair energy,
are ya, big guy?
Really?
'Cause I'm having the time of my life.
Oh boy, okay.
You're still mad, I get it.
Do you get it, though?
I took your advice and it
destroyed my relationship.
Now Julian's posting
all over social media
him with just random guys,
so that's great.
Okay, first of all, unfollow him.
Hot tip, thanks.
I, uh
I'm really sorry.
But honestly, screw Julian.
Listen to me.
You've got this heart that is so big,
and it's gonna scare some people.
But those are not the people for you.
There are plenty of gay fish in the sea.
I checked.
But if you're too busy mopin'
around and starin' at your ex,
those fish are gonna
swim right past you.
How's about we go get you a hot dog
and you learn how to eat
your feelings like an adult?
Throw in some ice cream?
Come on!
Hey! You guys want a family photo?
A family photo? Yeah, I'd say we do!
We don't even have one of those yet!
Um
Okay, what should we be? Pirates?
Look, we could be a family a' pirates!
No, no pirates? Okay, okay.
Uh Ohhh!
Astronauts!
We could be an astronaut family!
Uh
There's a carrot family
in there somewhere too.
Are you serious? Gosh,
there's so many families to choose from!
We could be a
I dunno, carrot family, I guess?
Is this the carrot?
No, this is the pumpkin deal.
- Rock star?
- Could you
Could you hold Owen for a second?
I-I think my phone is ringing.
Uh, just
Uh, one minute.
Hello?
They said it was easy
- You know what to do.
- Yeah, yeah.
- Hey, Lionel.
- Oh
Uh, hey, guys.
Oh, okay. I, um
I-I want to apologize
about my outburst earlier.
All the baby talk
That was unwarranted.
I get it. Uh, my wonderful wife can
really push people's buttons.
Well
She can be so headstrong,
it's impossible.
But it's also kind of
what makes her great, you know?
Although she is really
putting me through the ringer.
- I bet.
- Of course,
you can relate to
the whirlwind that is Anne!
This one time I bought
these pleated khakis
and she called me Katharine
Hepburn for a month.
What the fuck?
Okay?
So, is it true you guys got a spider?
Yeah.
- You wanna see a pic of her?
- I do!
Oh, so check this out.
Holy shit, how many legs is that?
It's eight, yeah.
Alright.
What's going on?
Is there somewhere we
can talk privately?
Privately?
Salubra wants to hire us.
Salubra Pharmaceuticals made an offer?
Oh, a huge one.
Really?
They're not just looking
for help on some new pill.
They want a full company acquisition.
They want us to be their
in-house PR department.
Offer expires in 24 hours.
There's nothing but grown-ups in here!
Oh, gross! Wait your turn!
Ugh.
Jesus Christ.
Huh.
"Pa, pa," come on.
Pa
Pa, pa. Pa
What are you doing?
Uh, what's it look like I'm doing?
It looks like you're teaching Owen
to say "papa,"
which is confusing.
I was teaching him how to say
my name, which is "Paul."
Pa Paul!
What is going on with you today?
First you ghost me at the
photo booth and now this?
And what would be so
wrong with me teaching him
to call me "papa"?
I take care of him like a papa.
I live with him, like a papa.
What are you so afraid of?
Here. You take him.
He just pooed, by the way.
Okay, if we let Salubra absorb us
that means Kate Foster PR
Disappears completely.
The brand, the logo, the client base
Every relationship.
We give it all up.
But in exchange,
we reach the mountaintop.
What does that look like?
Huge pay bumps, company stock
Unlimited paid vacation!
I could go to Christina
Miller's bachelorette!
If I hear about this
bachelorette one more time
Oh, never having to go out
and solicit work again.
The business comes to us.
Well, there is that, right?
No more pressure to hit quotas,
to keep the lights on.
The part of the job I hate!
And we still get to be us.
McNulty said she wants to
bring our scrappy energy
and apply it to
more pills.
I'd go work for her myself,
but she's very clear,
it's the four of us or none of us.
And you all want this?
With every bone in my body.
I mean, I do.
- Sure do.
- Okay, this is too much pressure.
I'm sorry, guys. Not right now.
Generational wealth, Katie!
Think about it!
I just need a second!
We really should give the
kids out here a chance.
The food truck is taking
a 15-minute break.
Feels like now is a good time,
make that headmaster intro?
Right! No problem.
Okay follow me. Where is that woman?
Zoe?
Why is she by herself?
Um, hello?
Just gimme a second! Christ!
Hey, baby girl, are you okay?
What happened to your assistant?
He quit.
Jenny Matthews?
Is that St. Celine's most
esteemed event planner?
Depends who's asking!
I'm kidding! Yes, it's me.
I want to introduce you to Leora Tobias.
Maybe you've heard of Tobias Events?
She has been absolutely badgering me
to meet the mom who put this together.
'Tis I!
This thing is adorable.
You did this all on your own?
Fully, completely.
So, do you do freelance, or
Um, for now, I do. Yes.
We've been trying to find someone
more versed in the
kids and family space.
Feels like you'd be a great fit,
if that's something
you're interested in!
Holy shi Yes.
Yes, I could be very much interested
in something like that. Um
Let me just get your information, here.
- Thank you.
- Thank you!
There you go!
- Perfect! Enjoy your day.
- Thank you.
- Nice to meet you.
- You too!
Um
I'm afraid of old elevators
and getting sick.
Looking like a fraud.
I'm afraid of a lot of things,
but not you.
You're wonderful.
Okay?
Just hearing you say "family"
a hundred times, it just
unlocked something in me.
So, this is
about your mother.
Probably.
My whole family fell
apart after she died.
And now here comes along another family.
And it feels like it
might be a good one.
So I guess that's what I'm afraid of
Wonderful things being taken from me.
So I hope that answers your question.
I forget what I asked.
If you just bear with me
I plan to.
Why?
'Cause you're hot.
And you're rich.
And you're amazing.
But this guy's not so patient.
Earlier today he was calling me
"father dearest."
I begged him to stop.
"No, Father, no!"
Can you take the penis hat off first?
Jenny!
Racer reporting for duty. Let's do this!
Who are you sticking me with?
Oh, you're not racing.
What? I thought
I thought I had to participate.
Yup.
I deserve this, okay.
The rules are simple.
The first team to smash
the button and send Kate
into the freezing dirty water
Hello, hi!
wins!
Couldn't have warmed
the water up a hair, huh?
Feels a little bit like you
filled it with ice cubes!
Can't thank you enough!
Alright, you bitch.
Hey, Gena Morris!
Please abandon your sweaty little truck
and report to the starting line.
I have someone I want
you to connect with!
- Headmaster?
- My ankle!
Let's go, race partner!
You're a champ, babe!
I know she's your wife
and everything, but, uh
I came here to win.
So, we cross that finish line,
she gets dunked, hard.
I'd expect nothing less!
Oh.
Well, look who decided
to answer my texts!
Did baby learn to use a cell phone?
How's the ironing going?
Fine.
What, you're you're really ironing?
Yeah.
No, okay. Uh, cool.
Just so you know,
I'm about to be revenge dunked.
Could have really used my
three-legged race partner,
thank you very much!
I don't know what any of that means.
I didn't come to the fun fair
because I needed a breather,
and I didn't want to get in an argument
in front of our children
and their teachers.
Then don't! I don't know
why this has to happen
every time we have a disagreement!
Recklessly pushing pills on
people isn't a "disagreement"!
And have you thought about what
future clients are gonna think?
I dunno! I mean,
Salubra Pharmacy was pretty interested!
What are you talking about?
They want to hire us, in house.
And pay us a boatload for it too!
Like, dissolve KFPR?
Well, that's not happening.
Yeah, we're we're weighing it out.
- Excuse me?
- Well
It's late. Any thoughts?
Oh, great. You guys too?
Look, there is a time and place
for both of these conversations,
and this dunk tank ain't it!
Are those your co-workers?
Don't tell me they're at the fun fair!
Yeah, that's right!
They're here, you're not.
It's the upside down.
We gotta figure out what
we're gonna tell them.
Tell who what?
Please be quiet.
How about "suck it"?
How about you stay out of it?
My business is none of your business!
And, guys, can you not see that
I'm moments from being plunged
into hose water?
I can't think about this right now!
We're not leaving
until we get an answer.
Fine, you wanna stick around?
Blend in, join the race!
Pfft! Not me.
I think I slipped a disc in
that bouncy castle thingy.
Fine.
But if we win, we're going to Salubra.
- There you go.
- Yeah, mm-hm.
No, I didn't say that
Racers, assume your positions!
Well, now they're comin' for me.
You happy now?
On your marks
Get set
Go!
Oh!
Oh Jesus, here they come. Alright.
You put your whole
life into that company
and now you're just gonna throw it away?
I'm not throwing it away, Anne!
I'm levelling up!
Uh, more like selling out!
Out foot, in foot, out foot, in foot!
Oh, shut-the-fuck-up foot!
- One, two, one
- Woo!
We're actually pretty good at this!
Ooh, yeah, brother!
Why do you get a say in this, anyway?
Because I don't want to
spend the next decade
listening to you gripe about big pharma.
No way, no thank you!
And what about Ram?
Uh, well, uh
Ram turned out to be bad news,
so I cut ties with him
after he kissed me.
He kissed you? What?
Well, you sure as fuck
left that part out!
We're ahead! We're winning!
- We're good!
- We're winning!
What? No, let's go!
- No, I pulled something!
- Hustle!
I pulled something!
God, I pulled something!
- Don't be a bitch!
- Aah, no, Rosie!
You're not even trying!
What is your problem?
My problem is I said
I'd help for an intro!
Instead, you told the headmaster
you did everything!
I even watched you get a job!
You're the worst, Jenny!
You've always been the worst!
- Ooh, teamwork, brother!
- I think we're gonna win this!
Oh my God, we're gonna win!
We're gonna win!
I didn't tell you about Ram
because I knew you'd react like this!
Honestly, I don't give a shit
about the Ram thing.
You say yes to this,
and everything you wanted
your career to be is dead in the water.
Dead in the water?
I'm nowhere near the water!
Hello?
What the fuck? Kate!
You gotta be fuckin' kidding me.
I found it!
Anne?
Anne, are you
Yes, yes!
Oh!
Hey, sweetheart, let's go home.
Come on.
Come on, honey.
Okay. Okay.
Nothing. Fuck.
What the fuck?
Hello?
Who won?
Our husbands.
Mm, first time for everything.
Look, I'm sorry, dude.
I don't wanna fight.
It's just sad, that's all.
Then why?
Because I've had like a front-row seat
to your ambition for, like, 20 years.
Exactly.
I have spent my career
trying to get somewhere.
And if I do this
I think I'm there.
You're right about one thing.
Your business is none of my business,
and as your friend,
I have your back no matter what.
I just want to make sure you're sure.
