[READING] Dr. Dentisaurus took
one look at his young patient
and he knew she was in trouble.
- She's scared, Daddy!
- I know!
Dr. Dentisaurus calmed the little dino:
"Now, Stego, you can keep
your mouth shut and feel pain.
"Or you can"
"Open your mouth up wide!"

You need some new books, Katie.
I think I'm gonna be a dentist.
I'm not sure there's enough
magic in that for you.

Magic?

ROSIE: This place is actually fucked!
Hey, happy day one, Rose!
I mean, you think "big pharma"
and you assume it'll be nice,
but this place is just
wall-to-wall fucked!
Are are you shaking?
There is a man just
handing out matcha lattes!
I didn't want to be rude,
but I already helped myself
to two cappuccinos and a smoothie.
Okay, just because
it's free doesn't mean
- you have to take it.
- Well
You see the gym?
There are a dozen trainers
in there just waiting!
They knew my name, Kate.
- They knew my name.
- RICHARD: Hey!
Sorry I'm late. Making
a dentist appointment.
Oh, hot damn, it feels good to
have top-shelf dental insurance!
You know, Kate, under your
care, I lost four teeth.
- What?!
- Oh, yeah.
They're in the back, so no
one's the wiser, but still.
Richard, we covered 80
percent of your dental!
Surely you could've
afforded the other 20.
No way, okay? I can't, and I won't.
- It's the principle.
- Okay, guys, anyway. We did it!
We made it to the top floor.
Granted, it's in someone else's house
Hey, nothing wrong with that!
Especially if we can chew steak.
Okay. [EXHALES]
All that matters is
that we're still a team.
Doesn't matter where.
Then let's fuckin' go!
Oh, sorry, it's the caffeine.
Come on!
Watch her.
ROSIE: Yes, I would love a cappuccino!
RICHARD: Oh, boy.
PAUL: [MAKING WHOOSHING NOISES]
SLOANE: Whatever's in
that box, thank you.
It's just a little somethin'
to start your day off right.
Oh!
Yeah, I thought you
could take it to work,
put it on your desk.
Just a little reminder of the home team.
Thank you.
- Well, I better hit it.
- Mm-hm.
Ah, you have no idea how hard it is
to say goodbye to this
perfect little head!
God, this does not get any easier.
Well, we'll be right
here waiting for you
when you get home, like always.
One for me? Okay!
Ah, yes.

You all packed?
Hello, Alice?
What have you been doing up there?
I'm not going to Australia.
What are you talking about?
I don't want to go anymore. So I'm not.
Okay, well, I'd love to know the reason.
I don't want to go. Is
that good enough for you?
Yeah, actually. It's a huge relief.
Good.

JANINE: I'd like to officially
welcome you all to Salubra.
We know that your creative
out-of-the-box style
is just what we need here.
Ah, well, we're looking
forward to diving in!
JANINE: On that note Arterolax!
Our legacy drug.
Stops blood clots, reducing the
risk of heart attack and stroke.
She's due for a re-brand.
Uh, what kind of budget
are we working with?
Sky's the limit.
- Love that.
- Very cool.
Excellent, yes. Uh, when will we be able
to sit down with the
scientists behind it?
Oh, no need for that.
Let our scientists focus on the science.
Leave the PR to you folk.
But here, this should help
The drug's entire development history.
Oh, great. And, uh clinical trials?
Say no more.
That should cover your trials and data.
And, oh, hell, while we're at it,
might as well have marketing history
Marketing history.
And our brand guidelines.
Brand guidelines, one of my favourites.
JANINE: I like to call this one
the "get to know your scientist" binder.
- Oh, so sort of a fun one, this one.
- And this one's just lunch menus.
Looking forward to hearing
your preliminary thoughts
later today.
Sorry, today?

- Not today, Doc.
I-I just need to ask you something.
Yeah, well, too bad. I'm
not your patient anymore.
What the hell?
I just want to understand
what's going on with my daughter,
and I can't get through to her.
For whatever reason, she trusts
you enough to want to travel
around the world with you,
and now she's changed her mind
and I don't understand why.
I dunno.
We haven't really
spoken since we broke up.
- Sorry, broke up?
- Yeah.
When I bailed on Australia.
My buddy Boathouse, he
got this used motorcycle.
We're gonna follow the Tame Impala tour.
What? Are you saying
that you broke up with my daughter
to ride a motorcycle and see a band?
Kinda?
Maybe it's better for Alice
that things ended this way.
She's got a good thing goin'.
- What?
- You really give a shit.
See you 'round.

I thought we were going shopping.
I just said that to get you in the car.
Which is mean.
- So?
- So, don't be like me.
No more calling people ugly and stupid.
Why?
There are other ways
to get what you want
besides being cruel.
And that starts today
by doing something kind.
I bought back Lola's ring.
And you're gonna return it.
'Cause the fate of the women
in our family changes today.
It's ugly and stupid.
Well, obviously.
Why do you think it was
still at the pawnshop?
But that's not important!
Let's go inside and surprise her.

What are my bags doing down here?
I rebooked your flight to Australia.
You leave in six hours.
- I told you I don't want to go.
- You're not gonna let
some boy determine your future.
I did not work this hard
to accept your independence
to watch some punk shut you down.
You're not gonna fear
the world like I did.
You're gonna embrace it.
You can't make me.
I'm staying.
Well, I'm sorry, but
you're not welcome here.
Well, of course she is!
You're always welcome here, but
you're going on this trip.
- In six hours?
- We didn't want to
give you a chance to
change your mind again.
Now help me get the bags in the trunk.
LIONEL: Okay, well,
we got a bit of time.
We could get a snack or something?
Alice, listen to me.

you better damn well
want to do it without him.

WALKER: So it's looking
like 20 cities in six weeks.
JONATHAN: But we think it's worth it.
This book deserves a full court press.
SLOANE: I echo my
colleagues' sentiments.
Wynston is packaging a pretty
extraordinary itinerary for you.
You're gonna be in excellent hands.
Sorry, Sloane, what
is this, a break-up?
Sounds like you're talking
about somebody else's hands.
The book is done.
And, uh, you should be proud of it.
I know I am.
But it's time for me to back out.
Wait, what?
Looks like I'm gonna be using
some of that maternity leave after all.
Turns out I want to be
fully present for the firsts.
I'm sure you can
understand that, Maggie.
You mind, um, giving us the room?
- No problem.
- Go for it.
You know I came here for you, right?
Not those guys.
Sloane, I thought we'd
be doing this together.
I know it's easier to stay at home,
but it's also weak.
I don't see it as weak.
I used to, believe me.
But now I think embracing a new priority
feels pretty brave.
And what's that saying
to all the other women
like us out there?
That there's more than
one way to do this.
This is what works for me.
And it's what I'm entitled to.
I'm telling you, you can do both!
There's no such thing as
multi-tasking, right, Maggie?

KATE: Heart attacks.
Strokes.
They hit when you least expect it.
And how better to illustrate that
than a "die-in"?
We gather a group of people
outside City Hall and they die.
Well, they perform staged
heart attacks, strokes.
Paint the picture.
If only they had known
there was a heart-saving
medication readily available.
Arterolax: It could save your life.
Jesus Christ! [LAUGHS]
KATE: We know it's unconventional.
But re-branding a legacy drug
requires a dynamic approach.
A sea of corpses outside City Hall?
That's "dynamic," alright. [LAUGHS]
It's a guerilla-style
campaign, absolutely.
But in our experience, it cuts through.
Look, I obviously didn't explain
the parameters clearly enough.
A stunt like this is begging for
complaints against the company.
A poorly-received "die-in"
could affect our whole product line.
We just thought it
could make a difference.
Do yourself a favour.
Focus on safety,
efficacy, and adherence.
You'll get the hang of it.
