"Will and Grace" is recorded in front of

a live studio audience.

What? I wasn't doing anything.

Huh.

Well, I know you weren't
looking at porn because

the fish ain't jumping
and the cotton ain't high.

...I clicked on a link that said

"Ten Pictures of Gay Men

and somehow ended up on my
ex-boyfriend's Instagram page.

Well, she just came over
to take some money,

but now her interest is piqued.

- Her zipper's down.
- She knows.

[ZIPPER ZIPS]

- So, who is it?
- No.

Come on. We all stalk our exes.

Just this morning I was checking out

that big hairy one of mine
who thought he was spiritual.

Oh, you mean Yogi Bear?

It was impossible to keep that bear from

poking around in my trashcan,
if you catch my drift.

Spill it, lady. Who is it?

I was checking out Michael.

Michael? So how's he look?

Better than he has a right to.

He does not look good.

That's him in my first apartment.

I was 26 when he moved in.

Tap it twice.

Hm. There's a little heart.

What... why is there a little heart?

You just liked it.

I don't want to like it!

I don't want him to know I was here!

- Undo it!
- Relax!

Just tap it again, Insta-grandma.

Kill me now.

Okay, I'll get the shovel,

Ellen's niece
invited me to her baby shower.

Another afternoon tea, which
is code for "not enough food"

and a group of mommies all giving me that

"I'm sorry you don't have children" hi.

Hi.

Oh, the mean girl head tilt.

The reason I had a stiff neck
in high school.

Not the only reason.

I hate baby showers.

They always feel like a test I failed.

Eh, it's two hours of your life.

Besides, those women
can't make you feel bad,

because you are doing great.

Your business is successful.

You look fantastic. Who am I kidding?

[LAUGHING] It's gonna be awful.

I RSVP'd for the both of us.
