The L Word: Generation Q...

Sophie Suarez, will you marry me?

Yes. Yes, yes, yes.

I know you. What's wrong?

I'm just scared that she's gonna keep

making decisions without me.

- What's this?
- Oh, I don't know.

Came for you earlier. I signed for it.

You really miss her, don't you?

I'm okay.

Bette Porter offered me a position.

Take your things.

I'll make sure someone walks you out.

This used to be a gay
bar, though, right?

Yeah, Tess is always trying
to, um, buy out the owners,

turn it back to what it used to be.

She should.

You can't ask me to be
more a part of their lives

and then call in Gigi

when you feel like I
can't handle something.

Hi. I'm Finley. You want
to have a drink with me?

All right. Why not?

I miss you.

I miss you, too.

My baby. Oh, my God.

I can't wait to dance
with you at our wedding.

- Me, either, baby.
- Oh!

- Come on.
- I'm good.

Yes.

Oh, my God, you are so good.

We should all go dancing together.

Yes, we should. I would love that.

Not tonight. We've got an art show.

- Oh.
- You are going to an art show?

Dale Lewis has an opening
at Regen Projects.

- Oh, my God, I would kill to go.
- Right?

- He's got a date.
- Oh, okay.

Isn't his work just so inspiring?

I just love the way he
imbues art with politics.

- Oh, upward mobility.
- Yes.

Okay, I don't know what's going
on, but I am gonna research

the shit out of this so I
can be as pretentious as you.

Okay. Oh, crap, I got
to get ready for work.

Alexa, stop.

Come on.

_

Have you thought about
what you're gonna wear yet?

Mm-hmm.

I'm thinking all white,
velour sweat suit.

Oh, yes.

Oh, y-you think I'm playing,
but you won't know for sure

until I'm walking down that aisle.

You are just gonna be
such a beautiful bride.

Oh. We'll see.

What about you?

I was thinking I might wear
my mom's wedding dress.

Well...

I think you should.

I think you absolutely should.

I didn't really think about how
hard this would be without her.

Maybe.

She's gonna be there.

Well, she's here right now.

Do you really believe that?

Of course I do.

Hi, cariño.

It's me, Dad.

Um, listen, uh...

I'm sorry.

I overreacted.

I, uh, hope your job is going well,

and, um, congratulations
on your engagement.

I miss you.

I was hoping, uh, we could
meet for lunch today.

So, uh, call me, okay?

Beso fuerte. Chao, Dani.

Okay, so...

... tell me.

Well, my first sex partner...

Oh, what? I don't like
the way that sounds.

... was a very soft doll named Silvia.

- I'm sorry. What?
- Yes.

And she had this big head
and a tiny little body,

and I used to sit on her face.

Yeah. Silvia.

She was my first.

You realize I can't unsee that, right?

That's, like, stuck.

Let me see this.

- Yeah.
- Oh...

- No.
- Yeah, I have to go.

Mm-mm. No.

I wish I could be in
bed with you all day.

Well, we can totally do that.

I can call in sick, no problem.

So tempting.

- But I can't.
- Come on.

What's better than this?

Honestly? Nothing.

Yeah.

Okay.

Oh, God.

Fine.

Oh, my God.

Don't do that.

Do what? What am I doing?

You're making it very hard to leave.

Good. Then just stay.

Or I can come with you.

I'm, uh, I'm going to the MCC.

What's that?

Church.

It's okay. You don't have to come.

Do you still, do you still
want to do something later?

- Yeah. For sure.
- Okay.

- Hey, how's it going?
- Hey.

Did you forget to lock up last night?

Of course not. Are you kidding?

- I always lock up.
- Okay, um, stay behind me.

'Cause you're so tough?

Come here.

I'd like to see some
mixed media in here.

What the fuck?

Can we find a way to get
creative, so when people

walk in here, they just feel beautiful?

- Of course.
- Is that too hard to do?

No, we can do that. Yeah, definitely.

And Jen Lewin. Can we see if she could

possibly make something for us?

- Yeah. I'll give her a call.
- Thank you.

Shane.

- Hi.
- What are you doing here?

What's going on?

Well-well, I-I think we're just

trying to figure out when we can reopen.

Wait. You... Did you actually do it?

I did it.

Holy shit.

Fuck.

- Are you okay?
- I don't know.

D-Do I still have a job?

Uh, well, I, uh...

I was hoping that you'd
like to run this place.

Are you kidding?

I get to run the floor of a lesbian bar?

Well, yeah.

- Fuck yeah.
- You sure?

Oh, yes.

Oh, I have so many fucking ideas.

Like, I've always
wanted to do a VIP area,

bottle service, the
whole thing, and... DJs.

Like... and-and...
listen, full disclosure,

I don't drink anymore,
I lost that privilege,

but I can design the
shit out of a drinks menu.

- Promise me you're gonna do it.
- Yes, I promise.

- You swear?
- Yes, yes, yes.

- Is...
- That's the designer.

Hi, I'm Tess. Nice to meet you.

I can't believe you actually did this.

You're incredible. You
know that? This is amazing.

I-I really just needed a job.

Shit.

Coming through. Okay.

That's... all right.

Well, the good news is
they ate all their cereal,

the bad news is we're
missing a puzzle piece.

- Did you check Eli's nose?
- Should I have?

- Wouldn't be the first time.
- That's gross.

I hate to leave you with this mess,

but I got to meet Bette and Shane.

No, it's totally fine.

Plus, if I don't order that
avocado toast right away,

then I'll be taking it to go.

It's not a problem. Have
fun with your friends.

Hey, if you ever want to
hang out with your friends,

I'm totally happy to watch the kids.

- Oh, that's sweet.
- Yeah, any time.

I actually think they're
starting to like me a little.

- Mm-hmm.
- Like, Friday.

I could watch them Friday if you want.

It's okay. You know I
don't have any friends.

Will you hand me the almond milk?

- Huh?
- I mean, I used to.

You know, I used to
have a lot of friends.

But when Gigi... I don't
know what happened...

but they all just kind of chose her.

- But why? She cheated on you.
- I know.

But she's, you know, she's the cool one.

And you know Gigi was
my best friend, too,

you know, so I just
kind of lost everyone.

Hey, if you want to
take any of my friends,

I have a ton of 'em.

But I organize them by tiers.

You know, but even the bottom tier?

- Very fun.
- It's okay.

I'll find some eventually.

No friends. Like, not even a mom friend.

And it's not like Nat's boring.

- I mean, she's the greatest.
- Uh, I'm sorry.

- We laugh...
- I'm just, I'm, I'm waiting...

Okay. Yes. Now the Eagle has landed.

Look, Angie made it to
school. I'm all yours.

- Go ahead.
- You're a stalker.

I'm a concerned parent.

How long does it take

to make avocado toast?

- Hi.
- You don't even cook it.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Oh, u-uh, Lena, this
is, uh, Bette and Alice.

It's really good to meet you both.

- You, too.
- Yeah, nice to meet you.

Okay, uh, I'm gonna... I'll
pick up my takeout order.

- It was nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

- I'll, uh, see you at the bar.
- Yeah, yeah.

- Stop.
- I didn't say anything.

You two seem cozy.

- We're not.
- Oh.

So where exactly did you meet Lena?

She is a bartender at Atlas.

Oh. I haven't been there in a long time.

Well, why would you? It's not
the same. It's a sports bar.

Why are you hanging out at a sports bar?

Uh... I-I bought it.

- Wait, what?
- What?

I'm gonna flip it, and I'm
gonna make it a gay bar again.

That's amazing.

- Right?
- That's really impulsive.

Um...

Why? I thought you'd be happy,

that I'm, I'm-I'm-I'm, I'm
laying down roots again, Bette.

No. We are. We are... Aren't we?

Well, I just, I don't
know, I just don't think

you should make any kind
of life-changing decisions

when you're heartbroken. That's all.

I'm fine.

Okay. My bad.

Maybe, though, don't shit
where you eat, with...

Yeah, that I would
definitely not recommend.

I'll catch up with y'all later.

I wanted to ask you about
something I read on Twitter

last night, Ange-munch.

No. Fuck off.

I heard that your mom slept with
everyone on the school board.

I always thought you were
an affirmative action kid.

But it turns out your
mom is just a fucking slut

and everyone knows it.

What's wrong with you,
bro? You look like shit.

I had a weird morning with Rebecca.

- What happened?
- We wake up,

and I think we're gonna have breakfast,

so I try to act normal and...

Ooh, I know that's hard for you.

- Very.
- Mm-hmm.

And then she's like,

"Yo, I got to go to church".

On a Tuesday.

Okay.

What, you don't think that's fucked up?

Mm, not really.

Dude, we've been fudging all night.

Yeah, I get that.

And then she went to church and prayed.

To, like, Jesus.

Ooh. Where does she go?

I don't know. It-it reminded me
of The Mickey Mouse Club.

- Oh, you a little stupid. You mean MCC?
- Yes.

Ah, that place is on my venue list.

Do you want to scope it out with me?

No.

Dude, we're gonna, like,
burn if we go in there.

We ain't gonna burn, fool.

Okay, fine.

But only because I want
to be your flower girl.

Oh, not in those shorts. Burn 'em.

These are my nice cutoffs.

Not today.

What happened? Did-did they expel me?

They suspended you.

And Missy?

Missy will probably
get a stern talking to.

That makes... That makes no sense.

Sh-Sh...

Fuck these people.

Fuck these people.

Look, Missy is gonna get
away with a lot in life,

and you won't.

Okay? The rules are different
for you, and you know that.

I know.

It sucks.

I know it's not fair, okay?

But the only way to survive the system

is to understand how it works.

And then you stay ahead of it.

And I know that's shitty.

And I'm sorry.

I thought you'd be mad.

I am.

I'm angry that this happened to you,

and I couldn't prevent it.

And I am fucking enraged

that the world works like this.

But there are two things you
need to take away from this.

One, you are too good for this place.

And two, you cannot,

under any circumstances, hit people.

You got that?

Yes. Yes, ma'am.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Let's go.

I got it.

Thank you so much!

Welcome back.

So my next guest is
one of my gay heroes.

And if she's not one of
yours, we cannot be friends.

Uh, ladies and gentlemen
and everyone in between...

her coffee is an
Americano with a little bit

of almond milk and not a single sugar,

'cause she's better
than the rest of us...

please welcome America's gay sweetheart

Megan Rapinoe!

Yes!

- I got to hug her.
- No.

- I got to tell her I love her, dude.
- No.

- So great.
- Okay.

- So great having you here.
- Oh,

- my pleasure.
- Oh, so, okay,

I'm gonna get into your
legendary soccer career,

but before we do that,
I would love to hear

your coming out story, if
you're willing to share.

Of course.

Yeah, right?

Go, gays!

Um, well, I didn't realize

that I was gay growing up,

which, looking back, is a big shock.

I didn't really figure it
out for myself until college.

- Oh. So...
- So, yeah, it was...

That kid?

That kid didn't know?

- Aw...
- I know.

- Really?
- Well, I mean, listen.

I'm from, like, kind of a small town.

- Okay.
- It was, like, a conservative area,

so there wasn't a lot of, like,

hey, there's this, you know,
mommy and daddy option

or this mommy and mommy option
or this daddy and daddy option.

- Sure.
- So there wasn't a lot of that going on.

- Right.
- So, yeah, we had some confusion.

- Yeah.
- Early on.

So as soon as I went to college,

- um, spread my wings on my own,
- Mm-hmm.

I pretty quickly found
out that I was gay.

- Right.
- Yeah.

So that was amazing.

I love that.

It was really great.

And, so who came out first,
you or your twin sister?

Um, well, I came out first.

I told my mom.

Um, and Rachael wasn't there,

but then I told my
mom about Rachael, too.

So you outed your sister to your mother

when she wasn't around.

- Yeah.
- That's such a nice thing to do to your sister.

Yeah, well, I didn't want
her to have to take on

- the responsibility, so...
- True.

If you could say anything
to that little kid,

what would you say?

You're gay!

- Oh, yeah, well, that's... yes.
- Obviously!

You're a big lesbian, um...

And it's wonderful and you're beautiful.

And you're gonna love it.

And it's, it's gonna be great.

- Oh...
- It's like, it's better.

And you get yourself out into the light.

- Yes, well said.
- Yeah.

Um, okay, and what's the gayest thing

that has ever happened
in the locker room?

- Me, obviously.
- Yeah, right.

- Besides me?
- Yes.

Um...

our celebrations were pretty gay.

- Really?
- If you think about it,

it's, like, champagne
sprayed everywhere.

- Everyone's in their sports bra.
- Oh.

Everyone just jumping on each other.

Oh, so it's like a lesbian fantasy.

- Yeah. Yeah.
- Yeah.

Okay, have there been any
surprising hookups on the team?

It's just you and I here.
You can tell me.

- We're just totally alone.
- Lips sealed.

- Yeah, like...
- Just us?

... a one-night stand or a
drunken mistake kind of thing?

- That's what I'm looking for.
- Yeah.

I mean, I don't think they
would call them mistakes,

but there's been some, some incidents,

- for sure.
- I knew it.

- I knew it.
- I know, yeah.

We're not gonna name names,
but you know who you are.

- No... Yeah.
- Yeah.

All of you know who you are.

It's not me, of course.

- Ah, that's so exciting.
- Yeah.

Uh, who is your celebrity crush?

You.

Uh... but, yeah.

- But, no, really, I'm just...
- Well...

You can answer your side.

- You can go next.
- Now it's gonna seem like

- I'm just saying it because...
- No, I'm just right here.

Don't... no pressure.

- It's you, so now...
- What... ?

- It's you.
- Megan.

- Alice, are you kidding?
- Of course.

Um, we will be right back

with Megan to talk about

equal pay in sports

and her new partnership with Time's Up.

We'll be right back. Thank you.

Look, Bette's mandate is to lay into him

on the opioid crisis.

Oh, that makes me so nervous.

Why?

She cannot afford to get fucking angry

in the middle of a live debate.

Well, then we should probably prep her

in case he brings up the scandal.

It'd be a really bad move

on his part to bring up Felicity.

It's been weeks.
The voters are tired of it.

- Shit.
- What's wrong?

Angie got into a fight at school.

Fuck. The press is
gonna be all over that.

And Milner will definitely use
that to attack her on education.

Okay, um...

talk me through the
fundamental differences

- in their education policies.
- It won't matter.

As long as she has a
kid in private school,

we don't have a leg to stand on.

Dude, my day's been so good.

I'm all full up on Rapinoe.

I don't want to go in.

- Oh, sh...
- What?

Nothing.

It's funny.

That's very, very funny. Thank you.

Oh, you got some baggage, bro.

Yeah, dude. No shit.

All right, come on.

I'll protect you.

Let's do it. Hey.

Oh, man, look.

It's so pretty.

Ooh, look at that.

They've got wine tasting on Wednesdays.

And a Mexican cooking class next week.

I mean, dip in for the Word
and leave with a quesadilla.

- God.
- Good morning, everyone.

Welcome home.

Thank you so much for
joining me this morning

as we open...

... our hearts and minds
to the worship of God.

Oh, shit.

What I, what I want

to talk to you about this morning is...

I fudged the priest.

... a lot lately, which is...

The Bible talks about love a lot...

Two Maines.

I'm sorry about the other day.

Thank you for meeting me here.

You look well.

Thanks.

How's work?

How's Jack?

Let's not talk about that.

Well, what can we talk about?

How's wedding planning coming?

You land on a place yet?

Nope, not yet.

Good.

I made a call

and scheduled us a tour of the Biltmore.

You did?

Yeah.

Sophie and I can't afford that.

I can.

Okay.

Wow.

Okay, I have, I have to talk
to Sophie about it first,

but... that'd be incredible.

Good.

- Thank you.
- I can't wait.

- Really?
- Of course.

I've always wanted to
walk you down the aisle.

I'm just sorry your mother
won't be there to see it.

Yeah. Me, too.

I keep wondering what she would
want if she were planning it.

Oh, dios.

She would want
everything we didn't have.

- You think?
- Oh, yeah.

We had two weeks and a thousand dollars

her father loaned us.

What did you guys spend it on?

She spent it all on flowers.

Everything else was
secondhand, family gifts.

That's so romantic.

- You think?
- Yeah.

It was just the two of you.

But, cariño,

she would want more for you. You know?

She always did.

Order 64!

Oh.

Thank you.

I'm sorry that you had
to find out like that.

I know that it can be
kind of weird at first.

Um, I'm actually

more closeted about being Christian

than I am about being queer.

Yeah.

And it was going so well between us.

Right?

Yeah, this really puts the Silvia thing

in, like, a totally
different light for me.

- Yeah, does it?
- Yeah.

'Cause you're, like...

married to Jesus, right?

Yeah. I am.

But it's an open relationship.

- Sexually, I mean.
- Oh...

So, did you have a religious upbringing?

Uh, yeah.

I was raised Catholic.

Very, very Catholic.

Well, a lot of people that
come here have your experience.

They were raised Catholic.

And then they come here.

I try to help remind them

that they're not those kids anymore.

They can choose what
they want to believe.

Have you been in a Catholic
church since you were a kid?

No.

God, no, I didn't even go
to my grandpa's funeral.

Uh-huh.

What do you think would
happen if you went to one?

I don't know.

Some churches are safe spaces.

Not in my experience.

So, do you have, like, a direct line

to Jesus back there or... ?

Yeah, the phone's right in my office.

See, I don't know if you're kidding.

Hi.

What's up?

- Hey.
- Hey.

Did you see that hot guy outside?

Ooh. Yes, I did.

Have you seen him before?

Mm-mm. No, I haven't.

You know what? Go get him.

- That's not what I meant.
- Ooh.

But it's what I meant, so...

Hi.

Hey.

Mmm, smells good.

- Mmm, mwah.
- Oh...

How was your day?

- Well, I mean, sexism is real.
- Mm-hmm.

But I got to meet Megan
Rapinoe... ah... so not bad.

Oh, I also saw a really
pretty church today.

- You did? Which one?
- MCC.

Ah, it was nice to dream a little.

Really?

Yeah, but Finley already

- fucked the minister, so...
- No, she did not.

She's freaking the fuck out.

Poor girl.

Well, if we did want
Finley at our wedding,

I might have another option.

Really? What?

What about the Biltmore?

Oh.

You want to get married

at the Biltmore Hotel?

I don't know, it-it could be nice.

Yeah, it-it could be.

So you're excited?

Yeah, I mean, if-if that's what
you want, I could get into it.

Good. My dad scheduled a
walk-through for all of us.

My family and yours.

Okay, so does he want us

to get married there, or do you?

Both.

But it was his idea.

We could make it our own.

You know what, it should be our own.

It's our wedding.

I hear you.

It's just a walk-through.

Hi, Alice!

Hey!

Hi. They have homework.

Don't let them tell you otherwise.

Good to know.

Okay.

Um, I am off.

Hey, before you go.

I have an idea. I was thinking.

- We should hang.
- Oh.

- Yeah, or you guys should.
- Who?

You and Nat, like, go
get coffee or something.

Uh...

sure.

Did she tell you to say that?

Oh, God, no.

I just... I mean, you guys, you know,

you used to be friends,
and I thought maybe

you could go get... coffee.

She misses you.

She does?

Yeah. Like, a little.

You know, as a friend.

Oh, God, I...

- What?
- No, I thought you meant

- she misses me, like, for real.
- Huh?

Oh, my... Can you imagine?

If I was...

- "Oh, she misses you..."
- No. That would be...

- strange.
- No, that would be crazy.

- That would be crazy.
- What'd be crazy?

I can't believe we're
still talking about this.

But why would you tell her I miss her?

Because you do.

She's my ex-wife.

Well, she's also your ex-friend.

Okay, but I don't want her
to know that I miss her.

Did you not just tell me this morning...

Yes. I told you.

I didn't want her to know.

Well, she misses you, too.

Did she say that?

Well, no, but... I can tell.

She hurt me Alice. Okay?

I can't just flip a switch
and forget what happened.

I know. I'm sorry. It's just...

She was your friend first.

Why are you pushing this?

Because I get it.

You know? I dated my best friend, too,

as you know, and when we broke up,

- it was very painful.
- You would really be

okay if me and Gigi were just

gal-pal-ing around town,

- having fun...
- Mm-hmm. Yeah.

I could see it. Plain as day.

I could see a brunch,
I could see a mani-pedi.

- Really?
- Uh-huh. I don't love a spa.

But, yeah, I am not threatened
at all by a casual...

- public hang.
- Okay.

I'm... so sure.

I'm serious. All I want
is for you to be happy.

It's all I ever want.

Well, you're very, very sweet.

Thank you.

I love you so much.

- And you know what?
- Mm?

I think you're the cool one.

Okay, now I know you're lying.

No, I think you're so cool.

You're just a different kind of cool.

- I'm not cool.
- You're so cool.

Come in, it's open.

Hey.

So, I did a deep dive on Dale Lewis.

And, uh, you know, I'm just, uh...

You okay?

I'm really sorry, I have to cancel.

Something came up.

I'll make it up to you, I promise.

Oh. Uh, is there anything
I can help you with?

No. No.

I just need some time to
take care of some stuff.

Some personal stuff.

Sure. Yeah.

You should take Sophie with you.

No, that's okay.

Okay.

See you later, yeah?

Yeah. Yeah, sure.

Thank you so much.

I thank you.

Hey.

Can a friend get a drink on the house?

You have good timing. I was just
starting to feel bad for myself.

I'm sorry.

- Such a shitty friend earlier.
- No, you weren't.

Yes, I was.

You've always been there for me.

- You deserve the same.
- Well...

buying this place was pretty impulsive.

Very.

What was I doing?

I just wanted to forget a little.

I get it.

- Put those in some water?
- Yeah.

There are times I just...

I feel normal, and then...

the feeling of missing her

just hits me like a fucking wave.

Are you sure that it's over?

I have divorce papers

sitting in my drawer right now, so...

pretty sure it's over.

But does she know that
you're still in love with her?

I don't think that matters so much.

Well, it matters a lot

if you still want to be with her.

The problems we have...

don't involve us not loving each other.

Hmm.

Ah, I just want to feel normal again.

Just give me some good news.

Tell me how long it took for
you to feel normal after Tina.

Well, you're assuming
that I feel normal now.

You don't?

- No.
- Great.

I still miss the kind of
love that I had with Tina.

It made me feel alive.

Never thought she would fall
in love with someone else.

Everything changed when she left me.

I mean, my God, my body changed.

- No, it didn't.
- Oh, yeah. It did.

I mean, sometimes I
sweat so much at night,

I feel like I should be
sleeping on a fucking towel.

That's where we are now, Shane.

I should be sleeping on a towel.

But you're younger,
you'll bounce back faster.

Oh, come on, I'm pushing 40.

Oh, you're just a baby.

You just need to have
some time pass, that's all.

Just have some days go by.

You think?

I know.

Congratulations on your new adventure.

Well, here we are.

I've never been with a trans guy.

Okay.

What should I do?

I talked to the head of the school,

and it's all set.

Yes, done deal.

So I'm gonna take the deposit
out of my bank account,

send it over there.

Yeah, you can... you
can do it if you want.

Whatever works for you.

- Thank you.
- Your tea.

Thanks.

Yeah. You, too. Bye, T.

So, you are going to be starting

at Harrington Academy
come Monday morning.

Great. Same assholes,
different zip code.

Where are we?

If Milner's team is smart...

- Which they are.
- They'll use yesterday's incident

to attack you on education.

Bring it on.

You cannot be reactive.

You have to just take a
deep breath, count to three.

You know, whatever you have to do.

This is an opportunity for
you to clarify your position

on education, which,
as it stands, is murky.

Murky? How's it murky?

I mean, he wants to pour
money into charter schools,

and I support improving
our public school system.

- What's murky about that?
- Right.

But as long as Angie's
in private school,

your position could come
across as hypocritical.

I might have a solution for that.

There are a few great public schools

- in your district.
- Oh, no.

She needs to be academically challenged.

The Los Angeles Center
for Enriched Studies

actually outperforms schools
in wealthier districts.

AP participation rate

is a hundred percent.

It's extremely diverse.

60% of the student body is of
a lower socioeconomic class.

Look, I get what you're trying to do,

but I'm not about to exploit
my daughter in order to improve

the optics of the campaign.

You can if you want.

I've spoken to the teachers' union.

They're ready to support you

if you enroll Angie in a public school.

Okay, look, I'm not
trotting out my daughter

in order to win an endorsement.

I will do what I think is best.

Okay.

I will just leave these here, then,

- in case you change your mind.
- I won't.

- Just in case.
- I'm never gonna look at these.

I can't hear you. Sorry. Very busy.

Okay.

Yes?

Will you please look at those?

Harrington is much
better than these schools.

But I don't...

I don't want to check
their diversity box.

And I don't want to be

in their "Look, we're
color-blind" brochures.

- You know?
- Look, I get it, but here's...

No, but public schools
are not like that.

Okay? It's...

it's different there, you know?

T and I chose the best school for you.

Okay? You have to trust that, as adults,

sometimes we can see the bigger picture.

Are you sure it's the
best school for me,

or is it actually the
best school for you?

We offer a certain level of luxury

- and sophistication.
- Thank God.

The prewedding cocktail hour

and passed hors d'oeuvres could be here.

Are you having a cocktail hour?

- Um... absolutely.
- Excellent.

I should've gone home and changed.

Into what? A ball gown?

Now, there are two potential
areas for the ceremony,

but my personal favorite is...

- The Gold Room.
- Yes, sir.

You're going to love it.

I hope you all do. It's right this way.

This ballroom is 6,300 square feet

and can accommodate
approximately 350 guests.

Yeah, our list may be longer than that.

Where does the food go?
Because we need few tables

to put everything we're bringing.

Well, we actually don't
allow outside food,

but we have several excellent
menus to choose from.

We'll set up a tasting
as soon as possible,

and then our restaurant
will prepare a menu

according to your needs.

You're lucky you're able
to book something so soon.

This room is normally
booked five years in advance.

Wait.

- He already booked it?
- Dad?

Yeah. I had to put down a deposit.

- Didn't want to lose it.
- Mm.

And how much was that?

No, don't worry about the money.

I want all my colleagues
to be comfortable.

Wait, I'm sorry.

Is-is that why you're doing this?

No, no.

This is good for everybody.

So, if everything's already
set, when is our wedding?

May 10.

Hmm.

Thank you.

We're gonna discuss this,
and I will let you know.

If I hadn't given you
the fucking death stare,

you would've let your
dad book that place.

He wants to do this for us.

It's the only thing we have to give him.

Why do we have to give him anything?

Because my wedding is something
that he's looked forward to.

- It-it matters to him.
- Yeah,

but I don't want to feel
uncomfortable at my own wedding.

I-I want to laugh.

I want to yell. I want to eat
the food that my family cooked.

Okay.

O-Okay, I-I hear you.

I'm sure that they'll make exceptions...

No! No.

No, no, no. You don't get it.

That place makes me
hold my fucking breath.

Did you see how they
looked at me and my family?

Baby, you're making this
into a bigger deal than it is.

How? It's our wedding.

I don't know what's bigger than that.

Couples compromise all the time.

Yeah, I'm happy to compromise with you.

I'm just not about to
compromise with your dad.

Okay.

Don't you...

don't you want to marry me

and not feel like we got
to keep our spines straight?

Of course I do.

I don't want to hurt him.

I don't want to hurt his feelings.

I know.

But you're hurting mine instead.

Excuse me.

Good evening, and welcome back

to tonight's L.A. mayoral debate.

We're here with candidates
Jeff Milner and Bette Porter.

Deputy Mayor Milner, before the break,

we were discussing the
use of public space.

The city of Los Angeles has
a number of vacant buildings

that are falling into disrepair.

There are several proposals out there

regarding how to use that space.

What exactly is your plan?

My plan is to use those spaces

to bring money and
jobs back to the city.

Look where those buildings
are: Skid Row, Hyde Park,

Boyle Heights.

Locations that need to be revitalized.

- He's good.
- Yeah, he's a pro.

... turn things around
in some of those places...

Hey, she's got this.

Yeah. She's got this.

He totally looks like Ted.

My college boyfriend?

Yes.

Oh, my God, you're so right.

What? What are you laughing at? Oh.

Huh?

What's going on there?

Oh, it's a long story,

but I think I might have brought
two best friends back together.

Or two ex-wives.

But the businesses you support

are actually raising rents,
putting more people

out on the street, making our
homelessness crisis even worse.

What this city desperately
needs is housing,

which is why I've made the issue

one of the three
pillars of my candidacy.

Housing...

Don't, please don't
say education, please.

... unemployment...

Please don't say education.

- ... and education.
- We're fucked.

I'm glad you brought that up.

My plan on education involves building

more charter schools
and getting children

out of our broken public school system.

Pouring money into charter schools

is not going to fix our
public school system.

And what would be your
proposal, Ms. Porter?

- Private school for all?
- Fuck.

Curious to see what
your plan could be since

your daughter's been in
private school her entire life.

Well, actually, my daughter
is enrolled in a public school.

She's at the Los Angeles
Center for Enriched Studies.

Huh. Is that because
you believe in public schools

or because she got expelled
from Woodward for fighting

and no reputable school would have her?

Firstly, my daughter was not expelled.

Secondly, any school,

public or private, would be
lucky to have an AP scholar,

National Merit award winner,

and honor roll student like my daughter.

- Thirdly...
- What I meant was...

Oh, I know what you meant.

You were using coded language
to imply, among other things,

that our city's public
schools are inferior.

And I would have to ask
you, by what measure?

If all you do is look at
AP scores and, and rankings,

then you're missing out
on the bigger picture.

Our city's public schools

have a more diverse student body

and faculty that reflects the
students back to themselves,

and that is invaluable.

Diversity matters.

At the Center for Enriched Studies,

they have an AP participation
rate of a hundred percent,

and they are ranked tenth in
the county, but they also have...

We just got the teachers'
union endorsement.

... 73% minority enrollment rate...

That's what I'm talking about. Yeah.

... and that matters
to me and to my family.

Hey. It's me, the Pope.

Kidding.

Um...

I thought we were gonna hang out again,

but I guess not,

which is a bummer,

for me anyway.

Um, but, yeah,

I don't know what you believe in,

but I, but I think that
we met for a reason,

and I don't know what it is,

but I hope that you find a
way to reclaim your faith.

It seems important to you.

Or maybe I'm totally
reading into something.

So, um...

Okay, this message is too long.

I hope to see you again.

Okay. Bye.

She was trying to pet the
turtles with one hand...

Right. And balance her
mai tai in the other,

and then she flips off the boat.

Oh, my God, that's right.
I forgot about that.

- So embarrassing for her.
- Oh, my God, she's ridiculous.

- Regina.
- Yeah, that's Regina. Always.

That's such a funny story, Gigi.

- So funny.
- It's ridiculous.

Yeah.

Well, good night.

Oh. Yeah.

Um...

- Thank you again...
- Yes, oh, my gosh.

- ... so much for...
- Yeah, oh, my God.

- Such a joy.
- Thank you. Thank you.

It was so great. Thank
you for suggesting this.

- Really.
- Yeah.

Thank you. Okay, I'm off.

- Okay.
- Finally. Okay.

- So much fun.
- Thank you, too.

- See you soon.
- Yeah, of course.

- Great.
- Bye.

Are you okay?

Uh-huh. Yeah. I just thought
she would never leave.

Okay. I knew this would be weird.

- No, it's not.
- Oh, yes, it is. It's weird.

- No, I thought that went great.
- Did you?

- Well, it couldn't be weirder.
- You know what?

I didn't even think it
was gonna go that well.

This was all your idea.

I know. Yeah.

I just didn't think you
were gonna laugh that hard

at Gigi.

I mean, I thought I was the funny one.

Love, you are the funny one.

Well, you said you were
gonna pee your pants,

- like, five times.
- That doesn't mean anything.

I... That could happen when I sneeze.

Yeah, well, it's true.

Yeah.

Do you want to watch Naked and Afraid?

Yeah, I do.

Me, too.

Okay.

Look, I really am glad
that you had a good time.

That's all that counts.

Thank you for being so generous.

- Thank you.
- I know, I'm pretty awesome.

Yeah, you are.

_

Hey.

Hey.

I, um...

I just wanted to thank you again.

For what?

For showing up when you did.

I didn't, I didn't know
how much I needed you.

Oh.

S-S-Sure.

Um, Tess and I, you know,

we've been struggling
for a long time, you know,

it's work... at work it's one thing, but

our relationship, you know.

She just doesn't see me the way you do.

And I think she's starting
to get a little jealous

'cause of the way I look at you,

the way you look at me.

But it's over between us.

Lena, this is not a good idea.

I think you can feel it, too.

Can you feel that?

Yeah, he did. He bailed on me.

Oh, I will fucking end him.

But-but then...

but then I...

I did that thing I do

when I get my feelings hurt.

Aw, honey.

And it's not okay.

Hey.

It's okay to hook up with a stranger.

No, no, I know, I know, but it's...

Hey, look at me.

It's okay to be hurt, and
it's okay to fuck somebody.

Thank you. I don't know
why I'm so bummed.

'Cause you like him.

- I've liked other people before.
- Yeah, but not like this.

Yeah.

Mm-hmm.

Fuck it. Let's just dance.

Alexa, play Yoskar Sarante's
"No Tengo Suerte en el Amor".

Okay.

- I can't. No. I'm terrible.
- Oh, shit! Yes!

I will teach you. Come on.

Yes, yes, there you go.

Oh!

Super easy, okay, look.
One, two, three, four.

One... Oh!

Congratulations. Wow, she
was great up there tonight.

Oh, thank you so much.
I'll tell her you said so.

Your endorsement means a lot to her.

- All right. Thanks.
- Take care.

And now we go to the studio

for coverage of
tonight's mayoral debate.

Thank you, Bob.

It was a solid showing for Bette Porter

in tonight's debate as she
continues to gain traction

against her opponent Jeff Milner.

Porter took a strong
stance on education...

... that seemed to
resonate with the crowd.

While Milner reiterated a finer point...

Are you really 40?

- Is that scary?
- No.

Right.

You jeopardize the campaign.

You've course-corrected worse when
you were working for your father.

How do you feel about your lover priest?

Swirly, right here in this area.

- That's love, bro.
- No.

I've been clear with what I want.
Tell me what you want.

- Surprise!
- What did you do?

I want you and her.
