Previously on lipstick jungle...

Sorry to break the news to you,

but your husband is no longer with you.

So you might as well just step aside

while you still have some dignity.

What do you want from me?

A business relationship.

Nothing more.

I'm so sorry for your loss, Nico.

Hey.

Hey, where we having lunch today?

You pick.

Has enough time passed
for me to wear something

besides black?

Well, if it's solid, yes.
If it's print, no.

Wear Navy.
Navy's good.

It says I'm getting back on my feet,

but I'm still solemn.

Can't I just wear a sign?

I don't know how to do this.

Nico, remember what I said?

One foot in front of the other.

Now what about lunch?

Wendy, we've had every meal
together this week.

I can hear you chew in my sleep.

Oh, and don't forget.

We've got Victory's jewelry thing tomorrow.

What is this thing anyway?

It's like a tupperware party with bling.

Her publicist cooked it up
so that she can schmooze.

Do you eat tacos?

They're serving tacos?

No, Shane is tonight.
Can you come?

Wendy, really,
I'm okay.

I know you are.

I'll see you at lunch.

What about brazilian cherry?

It'd be nice for the floors.

Counters too.

Well, actually, how much
would that cost because I--

Didn't I do a ceiling
for you in brazilian cherry?

Or was that teak?

Teak.
St. Bart's.

Really, I'd like to avoid
all of the high-end--

How about bamboo, honey-colored?

Has its pluses and minuses.

Well, I-I'm allergic to honey.

And--and bees.
Bamboo's flexible.

The average is
the aliens took over my body.

You can use it
with metal, a wall of water--

My lips, they just swell up
like basketballs.

Well, if money's no object--

Actually, money is an object.

And by the way,
I'm not,

so a little eye contact
once in a while, please.

Let's pick this up later, shall we?

And remind me,

I have some thoughts
I want to run by you

about upstairs.

And I have some thoughts on his thoughts.

Thank you, Mr. Bennett.
I'll e-mail you the estimate.

Great.
Miss.

Don't be so testy.

He's used to me making all the decisions.

It's not his fault.

Yeah, I know.
It's yours.

And I told you,
I am not renting--

Watch your head.

Rent the second floor, only this one.

Live large, Victory.
Plan for success.

You're gonna have the crew here already.

You can amortize your cost.

I will consider taking on more space

when I get out from under you.

Oh, don't even.

You know what I mean.

And plus, how am I supposed to do that

when you bring me
the most expensive contractor

on the east coast?

Good, fast, or cheap.
You can't have all three.

Why are you writing on my store?

I assume you want the work to be good.

- And that you want it fast.
- Correct?

Yes, so, so what?

Then it is not going to be cheap.

Now you can get it good and cheap,

but it won't be fast.

Or you can get it fast and
cheap, but it won't be good.

I can't believe
I used to have sex with you.

You did.

And it was neither fast nor cheap.

Huh.

I'll have ellyn set up meetings

with other contractors.

Stop trying to make excuses to see me.

Don't flatter yourself.

Whoa.
Sexy, but ouch.

Yeah, that's gotta hurt.

I guess it gives her baby
something to look at

when she's feeding.

Racy stuff.
Hector sign off on that cover?

No, he signed off on me signing off.

He must be planning on staying
in Hong Kong for a while.

Seems to me he's grooming someone

to take over.

May I help you?

She knows who I am.

We need to talk.

All right, where are we
with the co-op board?

I'm meeting with the Dakota's
board president tomorrow.

Excellent. Okay.

Phil, how's Lucy behaving?

You mean our very own

"Yoko oh-no".

Allergic to wool,

won't wear leather,
stripes make her look fat,

high heels give her bunions.

Other than that, a delight.

Okay, and Noah, how is our star?

He's been a no-show.

What are you talking about?

Made and broke three appointments

for fittings.

And Leslie said
he blew off the wig meeting.

Uh-oh, this is right out

of the "Hooked on meth"
Playbook.

Stop.
That was six years ago.

This is as much Noah's project
as it is ours.

I'm sure there's a legitimate
reason for his not showing up.

Yeah, it's called unconscious.

I'll call the agent.
No.

You won't.
I'll call Noah directly.

Now let's talk about
how you're gonna make winnipeg

look like liverpool.

He had a brown sweater.

V-neck.

I want it.

I gave it to him for Christmas last year.

How touching.

Is this why you came up here?

You should know that I have every right

to be taken care of

like I have been in a manner appropriate

to my condition.

Don't tell me.

Your roommate's pre-law.

This is Charles's baby, and he made sure

that I was taken care of.

My expenses, medical bills, food.

His estate hasn't been settled yet.

But I'm sure that your child
will be taken care of

in a manner appropriate

to the legal interpretation of his will.

I can't wait for that.

I need the money now.

I am asking you to do the honorable thing.

What do you know about honor?

Well, for starters,

it doesn't involve you acting all righteous

and noble when you were
in bed with your boy toy.

Is this where I'm supposed
to get out my checkbook?

You can leave now.

If that's how you want to play it.

I'll tell you how I'm gonna play it.

I'm gonna ask my pit bull lawyer
not to treat you

like a meat-flavored chew toy

so that you can get back to your
ugg boots and ramen noodles,

and we can pretend
we never had this conversation.

Is that honorable enough for you?

Just because Charles is gone
doesn't mean I am.

I am not going anywhere.

Uh.

Roy.

I'm at the address that you gave me,

but clearly it's the wrong place

because generally speaking,

meetings with cosmetics
companies don't take place

in buildings where there's graffiti

where the door should be, so call me back.

Where are you?
Hurry.

Hey, look out!
Head's up!

You okay?

Uh, uh-huh.

Nice move.

I'm Victory.

Rodrigo.

You look a little lost.

Yes, and late, and--and probably losing

a licensing deal as we speak, but...

What wood is that?

That is gorgeous.

Well, that's just bamboo.

It was gonna get scrapped,
but now I'll strip it,

refinish it, and use it on a job.

Not too pricy, save a few trees.

Do you work a lot with reclaimed materials?

Yeah, last year I recycled the floor

from an old school gym,

put the planks in the bathroom,

and the free throw line
right in front of the toilet.

I like the unexpected.

Yeah, me too.

Oh, sorry, excuse me.

Roy.

Are you at 325 west 23rd?

You wrote 523.

Oh!
No, I'm so sorry.

Where's my brain?

I-I'm gonna tell 'em you'll be
over in just two shakes.

Okay?

No, just give me the number.
I'll do it.

Thank you.

Your lawyer.

He's on line two.

Thanks.

Hello.

Hey.

Well, as a precaution.

She got past security,
came into my office unannounced,

demanded money.

Well, a restraining order to start.

I don't want to see her again.

Well, I was thinking something more floral.

Yes, I would love, love to meet them.

Sounds perfect.

Okay, bye.

Here you go.

Thank you.

I'm, uh, trying to get
a fragrance line together.

How do you even begin to decide
on a signature scent?

Well, just don't go for something

that smells like that.

Mm.

God, this is good.

And fast and cheap.
Ha.

So you're a busy lady.

Perfume line.
Store.

Yeah, I'm starting to Miss
the old days, you know.

Where clients would come up
to my fifth floor walk-up

and I'd sketch something right on the spot.

And then I'd bartend for a week

just to afford a bolt of fabric.

Wait.

What if--

Excuse me.

In your store you put a work station

right in the center?

It'd be like the beating heart
of your business

right there on premises.

I love that.

Not that you asked for any ideas.

No, no, I'm asking,
I'm asking.

That is...

You know, it just so happens
that I'm in the market

for a contractor.

I think I just offered youa job.

Hey.

I did everything I could to keep myself

from coming over here.

How'd that work out for ya?

I was really hoping

to see you tonight at my show.

Hey.

You okay?

I--

I'm cutting onions.
Yeah, I'm making soup.

Sorry.

You want some help?

- Hey. Hey, you.
- Hi.

Hi.

Oh, hey.

I was beginning to think

that you weren't gonna show up.

Oh, yeah, I know.

Things have been a little crazy.

So, how you doing?

Huh?

You look...

Like something you scrape off your shoe?

Yeah, I know.

Eh.

Lots of stress.
Not a lot of sleep.

So what are we drinking, huh?

Well, I'm drinking beer.

You might want to try some coffee.

What's going on,
Noah?

You're blowing off meetings,

costume fittings.

Is everything okay with you and Lily?

Yeah, Lily's great.

Then what's the problem?

I can't do it.

You can't do it?

What the hell are you talking about?

We're at the starting line,
Noah.

You sat in my office

and said you were born to play this part.

What changed?

If it's the same problem

as the past...

We can deal with it.

Look, just--just find
somebody else to play the part.

Okay?

Is there a waiter here?

I need a drink.

No, this is what we're gonna do.

I'm gonna push production two months.

I'll get the studio to eat the cost.

You are gonna get yourself into rehab.

Get a sponsor, get a trainer, get religion.

I don't care what it takes.
Just get clean.

I need you to start caring.

I do care.

Really?

Then when do I start to notice?

They rationing coffee at the office?

No, this is for the cab ride.

I didn't sleep.

You don't think
I'm making a mistake, do you?

Are we talking about Noah?

I should make a list of other actors.

You know, this movie is
very important to Hector.

He's already making space
on his shelf for the awards.

Oh, sweetie.

You gave Noah a reality check,

you gave him a swift kick in the bollocks,

and you know, he's got two months

to get his act together.

Yeah, but there's no guarantee he will.

I don't even know what he's on.

Why don't you ask him?
We're good friends.

We went to his wedding.

I guess part of me
just doesn't want to know.

The truth is,
I want to help him.

Yeah, well, then I think
you should trust your gut.

Noah wants this project as badly as you do.

Okay?

Come on.

He was apologetic about the fittings.

He just doesn't feel like
he looks his best.

You know, that in-between film pudge.

Pudge.
Oh, that's not meth.

Is he on downers?

No, he's on a treadmill.

Sal, can we just deal with our
production schedule, please?

I told him we'd push eight weeks.

Wendy, we can do
whatever you want, all right,

but if he's not being honest
with you or you with me...

He is.

At least have him pee in a cup.

His insurance paperwork isn't done yet,

and business affairs is
breathing down my neck.

Why are you hosting thisagain?

Oh, the rep that dahlia hooked me up with

is all about me networking
and adding jewelry to my line.

Well, I'd like to add this to my line.

What do you think?
Too much?

Hmm.
Wendy?

Mm.

Oh, yeah, cute.

Hey, I think these would be
gorgeous on you.

Ooh. Pass.

You can't pay for private school
with those.

Yes, but you can make them jealous

at the parent conference.

Oh, come on.
Live a little.

Treat yourself.

You can't take it with you,
but if you could,

this is what you'd want to be buried in.

I'm sorry.

No.
Don't be.

And god knows,
Charles was picking out rings.

They just weren't for me.

And if that little preppy whore

is going after his estate,

I might as well spend
what I can while I can.

I'm gonna get that ring,

a big fat necklace to match,
and two of those.

Should you really be spending
so much during this time?

I know the four stages, wen.

I've been through anger,
I'm intimate with denial,

and now I'd like to bargain.

Do you think she'll take less for this?

Okay, what's going on?

Is this the grief talking?

Hon, I lost my husband way before he died.

Kirby came over last night.

Did she just say--
Mm-hmm.

Don't worry.
Nothing happened.

We made soup.

And licked it off each other?

No, it wasn't like that.

We cooked, we ate, we talked.

It was kinda like a first date.

That sounds sweet.

And insane.

Are you ready to be jumping--

Who's jumping?
I'm inching.

Toward?

I don't know.

A second date, maybe?

But for once in my life,

I'm trying to keep it simple.

One step at a time.

Well, good for you.

What?

She can't wear all this jewelry

sitting home, watching the biggest loser.

Sounds like someone's driving
without the brakes.

Gun it.
Mm.

What is this?

Security cameras.

It's wise to keep an eye on the help.

Oh, for god's sake.

All this because--
Because I hired a contractor

without you vetting him
up, down, and sideways?

I'm a cautious man.

Excuse me.

Bad placement there.

Hey.
Hi.

How are you doing?
Good.

So who's uh?

That is my not-so-silent partner.

Listen, I was wondering at what time

you go to bed at night.

Um... I, well, when I'm tired, I guess, why?

There's this flea marketi go to.

Lots of vintage fixtures,

things you don't really find anywhere else.

Oh.

Thing is that they start
unloading at midnight.

That's when all the good stuff
gets grabbed up.

I was just wondering if you wanted to come.

I'll be sure to caffeinate accordingly.

Good.

Okay.

Rummaging for used drawer handles

in the middle of the night.

Living the dream.

Look at you.

Okay, so as it turns out,

tonight is swap-apalooza.

Is that the artist formerly
known as Sara bareilles?

I thought that's who we were seeing.

Yeah, it is, but it's also a swap night.

Ooh, what are we swapping?

Your clothes.
You've never been?

Okay, when the gong sounds,
you've gotta take something off

and trade it for something else,

and P.S., that belt is so cute.

You like my choker?

Text me when you get inside.

That's okay.
I'm good.

You know what?
We don't have to stay.

We can just grab a cab right now.

No. No, no.

No, it's--it's cool,

but this, uh, this really isn't your scene.

Wait, I want to stay.

I don't know what my scene is anymore.

You sure?

I should have worn cutoffs
instead of couture.

You--your cutoffs are couture.

Hurry up. Otherwise, we're gonna
get stuck with crap.

Does it matter?
Yes.

All right.
Lose the pants.

Damn, you can take the girl
out the boardroom

but you can't take
the boardroom out of the girl.

Stop talking.
Start stripping.

Oh, oh, look, skanky girl got my belt.

Why do they let you in here
if you don't have a stall?

Well, what can I say?
I'm cool like that.

And I've bought stuff
from pretty much every vendor.

Oh, check these out.

They have a pair.

What do you think?

These would look great
in the dressing rooms.

Ooh, I love it.

When is this from do you think?

I don't know.
'30s, maybe '40s.

Oh, if this doorknob could talk.

Well, that would be disturbing.

No, I'm serious.

Okay, picture it.

It's 1943, east village,
before it was crate & barreled.

Dead of night.
Everything's quiet.

Even the cat's asleep.

And there's a hand on the doorknob.

That knob.

And it turns gently, and it's a young G.I.,

and he's been released from the marines,

and he's home to surprise his wife.

Is he injured?

A little bit of a limp,
but it's no big deal.

So he's trying to be quiet,

but the wife, she senses something,

and she wakes up, and she sees him,

and she thinks she's dreaming
until he says,

"Hello, my love.
I'm home."

And she flings herself into his arms

and--

Oh, my god!
That lamp, it's perfect.

I want it.
Go get it.

Nice duds, mork.

Noah Mason's wife is here.

She didn't have an appointment.

Oh, well, sure.
Show her in.

Hi.

Hi.

Are you sure it's--

Oh, come on, please, come in.

I'm just so happy to see you.

How's Shane?

Good.
Really good.

He was so funny that night we all went out

to that ethiopian restaurant.

Well, he hasn't used utensilssince,

so, thank you.

Hey, what's up?
Go ahead and sit down.

So, um, I didn't tell Noah

that I was coming here to see you.

He told me about your meeting
the other night.

Oh, yeah, I just hope that he knew

where I was coming from.

You know,
I've got to wear two hats.

He's my friend, but he's also

a valuable asset to this studio.

More than anything, I think
he's stepping in his own dream.

He's not on those kinds of drugs, Wendy.

It's chemotherapy.

What?

He has a brain tumor.

I can give you all the medical,
technical terms,

but whatever they call it,
it's--it's not good.

Did they find this early enough?

It doesn't matter.

It's inoperable.

But they did tell us

that it won't get terrible right away.

He'll have some good months.

But then, the most we can really hope for

is maybe a year, maybe a year and a half.

Lily, I am so sorry.

After the diagnosis

and we were going home in the cab,

the first thing that Noah said to me was,

"I don't care what happens,

but I'm playing John Lennon before I die."

And I got so mad at him.

Lily, don't even think about that.

The movie is not important.

Yes, it is.

I was wrong.

I realize that now--

That the only thing
that's keeping him going

is this project.

Lily, if he's that sick...

He can do it now.

I don't even know if I could.

There's insurance issues.

There's gotta be a way around that.

Wendy, please.

Please don't let him lose this too.

Hey, Roy, what's up?

Uh, your 2:00 fitting with liv Tyler

just got pushed to tomorrow.

I didn't know I had
a fitting with liv Tyler.

Yeah, dahlia set it up.

I'm sure I put it in your book.

Yeah, you didn't.

Roy, you really need
to get on top of things.

Uhh, yes, ma'am.
I will do.

Something is going on with Roy.

Girl trouble, maybe?

Or boy.

You don't know?

You work side by side
with him, ten hours a day.

Well, he was seeing someone named Chris,

but he's not so big on the pronoun.

Plus, we're usually just talking
about my romantic life.

When I had one.

I think I have one.

Excuse me.
Did I Miss a chapter? With who?

With my contractor.

Rodrigo.

Mike harness is holdingfor you.

Yeah, let him hold.
Go on.

Okay, we started out

in a middle-of-the-night flea market.

And then we had omelets
at this funky old bar.

Was it a date?

Eh.

Date-adjacent?

I don't know.

Maybe he was just being nice to the boss.

Vic, get some radar,
and stop being so discreet.

I'm from Ohio.

Out on a second date.
All right, ask Mr. Goodwrench

I'm not even sure if it was a date.

I'm still trying to figure it out.

Don't figure out,
and don't do one of those things

where you replay every moment in your head,

analyzing every word you said to him,

watching you and him like you're
in some kind of movie.

Yeah, you're right.

You're right.

That's pathetic.

Yeah.

Hey.
Hey.

Uh, everyone's in the conference room.

I just need a minute.
I'll meet you there.

You okay?

Yeah, fine.

I'll meet you there.

Stop it.
What are you doing?

Stop.
God, you are beautiful.

Hi.
How are you holding up?

Oh, god, I got home,

I pulled off my newly-acquired
leopard stilettos,

and did a face-plant into bed.

I have not been myselftoday.

Well, you weren't really
yourself last night either.

Yeah, thanks for that.

Mm.

Ooh, before I forget,

I have something in herefor you.

A special delivery.

Ta da.

How did you track that girl down?

She's still at the club, actually trying

to knock a leather bra down
off the rafters.

That club was insane.

Yeah, so you up for a wild night
out in red hook?

This old pet shop
that they turned into a bar,

it is supposed to be ridiculously fun.

I don't know.

Look, after last night,
I think I need a night off.

Look, don't let me stop you.

You're only 26 once.

Unless you're me, and you missed
it the first time.

Where were you?

Mm. Married.

To my professor.

Look, if your--
If your husband

took those years away from you,

I'm more than happy to give 'em back.

I could get used to watching you
dance in your underwear.

He didn't take them away from me.

I mean, I willingly gave them up.

I just sort of jumped into my 30s

hosting dinner parties

for the comparative literature department.

I'm just starting to realize

how much I gave up to be with him.

And I don't think
I'm the only one.

What are you watching?

I've officially gone off the deep end.

Truth?

I'm watching video

from the store's security cameras

to see if maybe a boy likes me.

There--there are cameras in the store?

Wait, who's that?

That's you.

In your underwear.

Washing your hair in a bucket.

I'll--I'll stay on as long as you need me

till you find my replacement.

I'm not gonna fire you.

Why are you washing your hair in a bucket?

Miss Ford, my job is to take care of you,

not to tell you my troubles. Roy.

You're gonna think less of me.

I can't think less of you.

You've smelled like mop & glo for a week.

I've been evicted from my place.

I've been sleeping at your new store

pretty much since you signed the lease.

What?
Evicted?

Wh-hh-how?

It's not like you throw loud parties.

No, but they kinda hate it
when you don't pay the rent.

I'm broke.

Am I not paying you enough?

No, no, no.

You pay me fine.

Chris and I are over.

Oh, god, Roy, I'm so sorry
about you and Chris.

Don't be.

Turns out Chris is a pathological liar.

Here I think
I found my other half,

we move in together, it's working great

till I find out that Chris
emptied my savings account,

ran up my visa, ran up my mastercard,

and then just ran.

Oh, my god.

Well, where did, um, did Chris run to?

Fort lauderdale.

Hope "Grandma" survived the surgery.

Okay, I'm such a dumb ass.

No, stop, don't say that.

You're not.

We're gonna figure this out together,

and I'm not rolling in it,
but I want to help.

No, I cannot expect you to--

Roy, our job is to take care of each other.

Okay?

I mean, god knows
you're not the first person

to fall for the wrong g--
Person.

You're gonna be okay.

I know.

The weird thing is,
I still Miss him.

Yeah.

Of course, you--
You Miss him.

What's this?

There's a check in there
to help you for now.

Plus some cash for cab fare

and prenatal vitamins and healthy food.

I also put the number down for my ob-gyn.

She's the best.
Dr. Fuller.

And I set up a trust for the baby.

Beyond what's required by law.

Why?

Why would you--

Because you're 22.

And I realize

that we have a lot more
in common than I thought.

You think I could come by sometime

and get that sweater to remember him by?

You already have something
to remember him by.

Oh, boy, we're gonna lose
our whole camera department

for the Lennon film if we push back.

We're not pushing back.

What would it take
to start filming right away?

Like Monday.

What, now we're moving up?

What, did Noah have liposuction?

Close the door.

You gonna yellat me?

Noah is sick.

How sick?

This will be his last film.

He has an aggressively spreading glioma.

A brain tumor.

I don't get it.

How can it be so grim?

He passed a physical, like yesterday.

Ah, no.

What'd you do?
You paid somebody off?

No.

Well, what doctor would
approve him for work?

He's dying.

Are you out of your mind?

Sal, how many times has this
or any other studio

turned a blind eye for someone they needed

who clearly had an addiction?

This is different.
He's dying.

We've got some time.

I did a lot of research.

He can easily finish this film
before showing any symptoms.

Wendy, you're not a medical expert.

This is not your call.

This one is.

He's my friend.

And we both have
a lot invested in this project.

Yeah, what am I supposed
to do with this information?

Nothing.

Because this conversation never happened.

Training for a triathlon.
I'm impressed.

Why are you squeezing ellyn
for information?

Well, your long-suffering assistant

is a lot easier to reach than you are.

When'd you start running?

About 12 minutes ago.

Talk or run, baby.
I gotta sweat.

Well, this won't take long.

All right, talk fast.

I wanna keep my heart rate up.

That used to be your job.

I am going to lease
the second floor above my store.

So we'll need some money to renovate it.

So you are planning for success.
Good for you.

So what's it gonna be?

Office space?
Work area?

Studio apartment for Roy.

Roy, as in, "Miss Ford's
not here right now"?

Yeah, that's the one.

Okay, let me get this straight.

You're gonna go significantly deeper

into debt to me,

so that your assistant
has somewhere to sleep?

We really are from different
planets, aren't we?

Yup.

Here. You need this more than me.

I can't drink this.

The seal is broken.

Hey.
How's it going?

So far, so good.

Stranger, long time, no see.

How are you?

Wait a minute.
What's this guy doing here?

I thought I had the part.

Uh, just popped in to make sure
you don't embarrass my people.

Oh, shut up.

Uh, we came to see
John Lennon.

Oh, here I am.

All you need is love, love.

Oh, dear, is he playing crocodile dundee?

No, you've got to see the pictures of him

in his sergeant pepper jacket.

Come here and look.
It's unreal.

Okay, yeah.

So are you longing for the days
when I was just a cokehead?

Hey, hey, hey.

I am.

Seriously, how did you do this?

Did they waive the physical?

Don't you worry about that.

Don't worry about anything.

Make our movie.

Yeah, it's too bad that I'm not
getting into heaven

'cause I'd be talking you up
like you wouldn't believe.

Well, that doesn't work.

Doesn't work.

Hello.

Hey.

Check it out.

What do you think for the counter?

I figured since you liked it so much.

Oh, it looks wonderful.

Yeah, well, wait till you see it
all nice and clean.

Oh, I already did.

The other night,
when we went to the flea market,

you--you looked really...

Oh, god.
You said--you said "It."

Not--not "Me."

Whoa.

That's so--
So the thing is

that, um, the other night

when--when we went out,

that was fun.

And if it was a first date,
it would have been--

It would have been a really good one.

But, um, it wasn't, obviously,

because, you know, working together

and mixing the business with...

So, anyway, I just wanted to clear the air.

Okay, so air cleared.

Would you like to have dinner
with me tonight?
