♪ ♪

Hey, we could have had coffee upstairs.

Why did you want to meet down here?

Today is my last day at Millennial.

What?

I wrote a Dear John letter to Charles,

and I'm leaving.

Why?

I've been there a while,

and it's time for me to move on.

I want a fresh start.

- But where? - Where are you going?

I don't know.

Liza, it's fine.

I'm taking a leap, and the net will appear.

Yeah, well, sometimes the sidewalk appears first.

Look, please, just take a beat, think, talk it over with me.

We can do, like, pros and cons.

My mind is made up.

Well, what did Charles say?

Nothing yet.

I stopped by his office on the way here,

and I left a letter on his desk.

I don't want to be there when he gets it.

[intense bass-heavy music]

Are you crazy? Hey!

Liza, wait!

♪ ♪

Can I help you?

Hi, good morning.

Oh, right.

I left this for you.

It's a... it's a letter... for you.

But you shouldn't read it in the office

because it's... It's inappropriate...

at work, so I'm gonna take it back.

Now I really want to read it.

I won't report you to HR.

No, it's just it's...

[whispering] It's really sexy stuff,

and it's just, like, dirty, so I, um....

I wrote... it's a limerick.

I wrote you a limerick. That's it.

But it turns out that I'm not very good at those, so...

Um, that's not your handwriting.

[gasping]

It's my resignation, Charles.

- I'm leaving. - No, she is not.

She is thinking about leaving,

but we're gonna sit down and figure it out.

There's nothing to figure out.

I can't be editor where I was publisher.

I tried. I can't.

Take two weeks.

Take a leave.

Let the dust settle.

Please, you're too important to us.

No, I'm sorry.

There's nothing else to say... except...

Thank you, Charles,

for finding me in the assistant pool and promoting me

and giving me all of these incredible opportunities.

But my time here is over.

So... [sniffles]

Don't make it hard for me, all right?

Just read this.

I meant every word.

Done, done, and done.

Oh, and I got the Rome hotel upgrade.

You now get a bidet and an espresso machine

right next to each other, but still.

Oh, good, we have a problem.

Yes, my maid of honor, late again.

Thank God you deputized Lauren.

You do know we're four days out.

- That's just it. - I just got a call from Redmond.

We have a pitch on Friday. That's the day before.

- No, no, no, no. - That is not on my calendar.

Oh, God, Kelsey must have scheduled it

without telling anyone.

That's the third time this week.

She left dirty little bombs everywhere.

Yeah, I mean, she kept a lot of stuff in her head.

I have no idea how this company is running without her.

It's just not the same place.

Liza, please.

She was not the heart and soul of this company.

We are happy for her. We are happy for us.

We are happy!

Yeah, absolutely, uh, but, weirdly,

both of your offices are out of Kleenex.

I'm just saying.

She keeps dodging my calls too,

just little texts saying she's working on her game plan.

I know she's coming to the wedding, though.

And the spa the day before?

Kelsey's a no, but Enzo's sisters are in,

and they want it all plus a moustache wax.

Yeah, curse of the Mediterranean.

Oh, yeah, they have got a Russian lady there,

an actual Putin,

with the finger strength of my first girlfriend.

She...[chuckles] She will get it done.

[cell phone chimes]

Oh, it's Enzo, the Uncle Joe meeting.

Uncle Joe, who's Uncle Joe?

How can you be so bad at this maid of honor stuff?

- [gasps] - You're a thousand years old.

- This can't be your first rodeo. - Well...[scoffs]

♪ ♪

Thank you for meeting me here.

I gotta say, I'm surprised.

Thought I was public enemy number one.

Well, you're a very smart public enemy number one.

I need your advice.

I'm thinking of going out on my own

and starting my own publishing company.

I already have a few meetings lined up this week,

and I thought because you and Charles

already did it with Mercury

that I could just give you my pitch and get some feedback.

Uh, I don't need to hear the pitch.

My feedback is, don't do it.

Look, you're the best editor I've ever worked with,

but talent only gets you so far.

Yeah, Mercury worked because Charles came up with 800K

to buy the Audrey Colbert book.

It's cold out there in the publishing world.

Check your ego and come back.

With respect, my résumé

looks a little different than yours when you went out.

I've started and run my own imprint.

I've been publisher.

I can do this.

I know what you can do, Kelsey,

and I know what you can't.

What does that mean?

It means... all right, look.

You and I were doing great together, really great,

and then the thing happened and you decide to punish me for it.

You're being punished?

I lost my job.

No, you gave up your job to save the company.

You think what happened was your worst moment.

I thought you were awesome.

I wanted to be there for you to help you see that,

but instead, you bailed.

[scoffs] I...

I can't think about being in a relationship

when I'm scrambling for my next move.

You were the same way.

You have to feel good about yourself to make room

for other people, and I'm not there.

I believe you, Kelsey.

You know, I wish I didn't.

You deserve to get what you want.

I just... I just wish you wanted more,

and if you do one day,

if you want more than just business advice from me,

it's gonna have to be your move, okay?

You're gonna have to reach out.

Good luck with your pitches.

Ooh, you need this more than I do.

Come in. Bad day?

Oh, the worst.

I've been pitching my new company all over town.

All nos... well, not no, but, "Oh, you poor thing."

It's really hard to pitch to people that have seen the video

because their eyes all of a sudden just start... drifting.

- Mm, I get it. - It's hard for me too.

How am I doing?

Come.

You know, I'm afraid I painted myself into a corner.

I think Zane's right.

I let my ego get in the way.

Well, I don't know where I'd be without my ego,

probably somewhere upstate

crafting and smelling of hot glue.

Do you still believe in yourself?

Yeah, I do, but it takes more than that.

I need one more believer.

I need a believer with money.

You had a believer with money,

if I recall correctly.

Look, you quit your job to be a player,

so be a player.

I mean, sometimes you have

to get in bed with the devil.

How do you think I got this loft, hmm?

Long story, no names.

[glasses clink]

Because I love books, I always have,

but that's not the only way to tell a story now:

audiobooks, podcast,

digital delivery of subscription content,

serials like the way Dickens used to publish, and TV.

Yes, why not?

It's all new ways of crafting a book.

Opening your mind, filling your soul,

that is what KLP Print is all about...

with your help.

I like it.

KLP Print, that is the worst name I've ever heard.

In this day and age, you need something short

and easy to say like Looli or Oobay.

I mean, what the hell does Google even mean?

I'm open to changes...

with the right offer.

See this? This attitude, down but not out?

This is what I'm buying.

[bombastic pop music]

[upbeat hip-hop music]

It's just not the same without Kelsey.

And all the wedding stuff for Diana?

I'm not drowning exactly,

but I definitely feel the water rising.

Sounds to me like you need a vacation.

Oh, my God, this is the absolute worst time.

With Diana away on her honeymoon next week? I...

Not now, this summer when things calm down.

I am taking the girls to Scotland.

You know, I thought that they would want the beach,

but Bianca heard about a Harry Potter tour.

Anyway, so there will be hiking and golfing

and a lot of time to drink whiskey and learn spells

and I was thinking maybe you and Caitlin might want to join.

Wow, that's a lot to think about.

Yeah, I think it's time we all

got to know each other a little better.

I could talk to Caitlin.

I have to warn you, though: if we leave the girls with her,

she will charge for babysitting.

I admire her business instincts.

Charles, Liza.

Hello, Quinn.

Quinn.

Oh, I see you still haven't forgiven me

for yanking my money out from under you.

I had to. It's politics.

And my campaign is going so much better now, so...

Still friends?

Oh, as much as we ever were.

So funny, running into you.

This whole week has been a real blast from the past.

- How so? - Let's just say that someone

who used to work for you or with you or next to you...

I don't know, it's always so confusing over there...

Is going into business with me.

Isn't life hilar?

Anyway, my biggest donor awaits.

Watching him eat is the hardest thing I do.

[sighs] Bye.

That couldn't be Kelsey she's talking about.

She'd never team up with Quinn.

[upbeat percussive music]

But Quinn Tyler?

Kelsey, she was nothing but trouble for you at Millennial.

But she made me publisher.

No one else did.

It's a step up, Liza.

It's ownership, and I need something that's mine.

- Kelsey... - I'm good with my decision.

Can we talk about something else?

You know whatever you do, I'm on your side.

Speaking of sides,

you're sitting on the bride's with us tomorrow, right?

Yeah.

I know that Charles is gonna be there... and Zane

but it's Diana's day.

We're there to celebrate her.

Good.

At least for one day,

I can pretend everything's the way it used to be.

Remember the way it used to be?

It wasn't so bad, was it?

I know that you don't want to ask about him,

but Josh is doing fine.

He'll be in Midtown next week.

Wow, that's good.

We, um, sort of had a bad talk last week

about me seeing less of him.

- He didn't like that. - No kidding.

You're kind of the most important woman in his life

who isn't teething.

It's just I feel like, for the both of us,

it's time for a little space.

How's that working out for you?

It's weird, but we have to make choices in life.

- To new horizons... - for both of us.
