1
00:00:03,545 --> 00:00:06,900
‐ Okay, first day of school photo.
I want to see joy on three.

2
00:00:06,924 --> 00:00:08,425
Joy!

3
00:00:09,218 --> 00:00:10,612
‐ How long have they been going out?

4
00:00:10,636 --> 00:00:12,596
Long enough for Lexie
to have their wedding planned.

5
00:00:12,888 --> 00:00:15,325
‐ I'm going to Yale.
‐ Congratulations.

6
00:00:15,349 --> 00:00:17,160
‐ She hasn't even applied yet.

7
00:00:17,184 --> 00:00:19,078
‐ Oh, so you want to change
your math class.

8
00:00:19,102 --> 00:00:22,022
They try to discourage minorities
from taking advanced courses.

9
00:00:22,981 --> 00:00:25,734
<i>I think I figured out what
I'm gonna do for my Yale essay.</i>

10
00:00:27,819 --> 00:00:31,281
‐ If you don't stand up for yourself,
who will?

11
00:00:32,491 --> 00:00:35,845
I'd like to help you in your household
if the offer still stands.

12
00:00:35,869 --> 00:00:37,597
‐ Sure.

13
00:00:37,621 --> 00:00:41,416
‐ Hon, look, you're allowed to change
your mind if you don't want her there.

14
00:00:41,667 --> 00:00:45,063
‐ I did lie.
I put down a fake reference.

15
00:00:45,087 --> 00:00:46,713
But I'm not a criminal.

16
00:00:48,173 --> 00:00:49,258
‐ Why don't we have a glass of wine?

17
00:00:50,300 --> 00:00:52,195
‐ What's going on with her?

18
00:00:52,219 --> 00:00:54,030
<i>I had a daughter.</i>

19
00:00:54,054 --> 00:00:55,180
‐ What was her name?

20
00:00:56,473 --> 00:00:57,349
‐ May Ling.

21
00:02:06,084 --> 00:02:07,520
‐ You're 70 cents short.

22
00:02:07,544 --> 00:02:10,523
‐ Please, she not eat for days.
I not eat for week.

23
00:02:10,547 --> 00:02:12,758
‐ Then try breastfeeding.
It's free.

24
00:02:13,175 --> 00:02:15,904
‐ Please.
‐ Get the fuck out of my store!

25
00:04:30,020 --> 00:04:31,247
‐ We're closed.

26
00:04:31,271 --> 00:04:33,565
‐ Is, uh... is Scott around?

27
00:04:33,899 --> 00:04:36,485
I'm... here to hit the slopes.

28
00:04:38,695 --> 00:04:39,821
Try the kitchen.

29
00:04:46,495 --> 00:04:50,123
‐ How can he not get caught?
‐ God only knows.

30
00:04:50,374 --> 00:04:53,812
‐ Maybe because his face.
He's dumb but cute.

31
00:04:53,836 --> 00:04:56,606
‐ More dumb than cute.

32
00:04:58,841 --> 00:05:00,819
Beef and broccoli and fried rice.

33
00:05:00,843 --> 00:05:04,012
And you take the egg rolls because
I took them all for Pearl last night.

34
00:05:04,930 --> 00:05:07,349
‐ Pearl? Is that your daughter's name?

35
00:05:10,394 --> 00:05:13,146
It's beautiful.
‐ Thank you.

36
00:05:15,816 --> 00:05:16,984
So is May Ling.

37
00:05:23,407 --> 00:05:27,661
‐ Sometimes... I still hear her cry.

38
00:05:37,337 --> 00:05:41,216
‐ Of course you do.
Because you're her mother.

39
00:05:42,050 --> 00:05:43,260
‐ She gone.

40
00:05:45,762 --> 00:05:47,282
I'm not her mother anymore.

41
00:05:47,306 --> 00:05:50,785
‐ Bebe, a mother is a mother,
and you will always be hers.

42
00:05:50,809 --> 00:05:53,020
‐ I leave her. I do that.

43
00:05:53,854 --> 00:05:55,874
It doesn't matter what I want.
‐ No, it does.

44
00:05:55,898 --> 00:05:59,818
It matters. May Ling is out there.

45
00:06:00,319 --> 00:06:03,882
And if you want her, you have to find her.
Whatever it takes.

46
00:06:03,906 --> 00:06:06,241
‐ Find her?
You think it's so easy?

47
00:06:07,075 --> 00:06:09,304
You think I'm not
trying my best to find her?

48
00:06:09,328 --> 00:06:11,097
I'm illegal.

49
00:06:11,121 --> 00:06:14,541
If I go to police station,
they'll send me back.

50
00:06:24,927 --> 00:06:27,572
‐ Hey, hey. Uh, I didn't finish
<i>A Separate Peace.</i>

51
00:06:27,596 --> 00:06:29,324
What happens?

52
00:06:29,348 --> 00:06:32,142
‐ Um, Finny's in the tree,
and Gene shakes the branch.

53
00:06:34,102 --> 00:06:35,103
What do you think?

54
00:06:36,146 --> 00:06:37,397
‐ Decent penmanship.

55
00:06:38,482 --> 00:06:40,919
Is it still penmanship when
it's done with a paintbrush?

56
00:06:40,943 --> 00:06:42,504
‐ Uh‐‐
‐ Paintbrushmanship?

57
00:06:42,528 --> 00:06:44,446
‐ I meant about going.

58
00:06:44,947 --> 00:06:49,093
‐ I think I would rather finally
watch <i>Before Sunrise</i> like we planned.

59
00:06:49,117 --> 00:06:50,285
It's been weeks.

60
00:06:52,913 --> 00:06:54,456
So, uh, what happens next?

61
00:06:55,499 --> 00:06:57,960
‐ Um, Finny falls and breaks his leg.

62
00:06:58,502 --> 00:07:01,481
When that counselor discouraged me
from taking a harder math class,

63
00:07:01,505 --> 00:07:03,650
I found myself angry and confused.

64
00:07:03,674 --> 00:07:05,592
Our conversation took less than a minute,

65
00:07:05,968 --> 00:07:08,238
the same amount of time it took
for that metaphorical glass ceiling

66
00:07:08,262 --> 00:07:09,697
to form right above my head.

67
00:07:09,721 --> 00:07:12,534
‐ Mm. ‐ His sexism was
telling me loud and clear.

68
00:07:12,558 --> 00:07:14,810
That I would never go as far
as my male classmates.

69
00:07:15,352 --> 00:07:17,705
Sexist discrimination
is more than a hardship.

70
00:07:17,729 --> 00:07:19,833
It's the pervasive reality
of being a woman.

71
00:07:19,857 --> 00:07:21,584
‐ Mm‐hmm.
‐ And it's a reality I'm striving

72
00:07:21,608 --> 00:07:23,545
to change as we move
into the twenty‐first century.

73
00:07:23,569 --> 00:07:25,505
‐ Mm.
‐ As our first lady said,

74
00:07:25,529 --> 00:07:28,299
we as women can do more
than sit home and bake cookies.

75
00:07:28,323 --> 00:07:29,717
‐ Mm‐hmm.
‐ Glass ceilings are glass

76
00:07:29,741 --> 00:07:31,493
because they are made to be shattered.

77
00:07:34,913 --> 00:07:36,832
Well? What do you think?

78
00:07:38,500 --> 00:07:41,336
‐ Um, yeah, it was‐it was good.

79
00:07:41,545 --> 00:07:44,047
I, I didn't know
that happened to you, so...

80
00:07:44,756 --> 00:07:47,152
Are, are we, are we still doing...

81
00:07:47,176 --> 00:07:49,237
‐ Okay, well, why would
I have written it if it didn't happen?

82
00:07:49,261 --> 00:07:50,304
‐ Guess not.

83
00:07:51,513 --> 00:07:55,869
I don't know, I guess I just figured
you would have... said something.

84
00:07:55,893 --> 00:07:58,121
‐ What, to get second guessed
for my experience?

85
00:07:58,145 --> 00:08:01,023
‐ Why are you getting so mad?
‐ Is this even about my essay?

86
00:08:02,608 --> 00:08:04,193
Is this about sex?

87
00:08:04,735 --> 00:08:06,486
‐ What are you... no.

88
00:08:08,363 --> 00:08:09,281
No.

89
00:08:10,741 --> 00:08:14,578
But prom and Homecoming
are basically the same thing, so...

90
00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:19,893
‐ Okay, they are completely different.
When did Brenda and Dylan have sex?

91
00:08:19,917 --> 00:08:21,627
It was prom night, Brian.

92
00:08:22,294 --> 00:08:24,731
‐ Um, no, actually, it wasn't.
It was the spring dance.

93
00:08:24,755 --> 00:08:26,191
‐ The spring dance and prom
are the same thing.

94
00:08:26,215 --> 00:08:27,859
They just couldn't say that
because they were juniors twice.

95
00:08:27,883 --> 00:08:31,512
‐ Which is exactly why we shouldn't
use them as our sexual touchstone.

96
00:08:32,930 --> 00:08:35,307
That show is stupid, anyway.
It doesn't make any sense.

97
00:08:36,475 --> 00:08:37,392
Where's your faceplate?

98
00:08:39,686 --> 00:08:42,332
I was very clear
when I ordered these cookies,

99
00:08:42,356 --> 00:08:44,709
27 days ago,
that I needed them Friday

100
00:08:44,733 --> 00:08:46,127
and tomorrow is Friday.

101
00:08:46,151 --> 00:08:48,296
Trip, get off the line.
I'm on the phone.

102
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:49,631
Sorry, Mom. BEV: <i>You
could try a different kind of cookie.</i>

103
00:08:49,655 --> 00:08:51,799
‐ No, a different kind of cookie
is not gonna work.

104
00:08:51,823 --> 00:08:54,135
You can't put a tiny message
in a different cookie.

105
00:08:54,159 --> 00:08:55,887
- Bev.
<i>- Can you hang on a sec?</i>

106
00:08:55,911 --> 00:08:57,180
‐ Okay, yes, fine, I'll hold.
‐ I'm home.

107
00:08:57,204 --> 00:08:58,121
‐ Hi, honey.

108
00:08:59,623 --> 00:09:01,124
There's a problem with the cookies.

109
00:09:02,417 --> 00:09:05,271
‐ What cookies? ‐ The ones I've
been talking about for literally a month.

110
00:09:05,295 --> 00:09:08,215
The ones for Mirabelle's birthday party.
Dinner, everybody.

111
00:09:08,549 --> 00:09:10,485
‐ We got a fine at Windsor.
‐ What?

112
00:09:10,509 --> 00:09:13,303
‐ Mm‐hmm. She let the grass
grow over six inches.

113
00:09:14,012 --> 00:09:15,824
‐ Uh, is it all right
if Pearl stays for dinner?

114
00:09:15,848 --> 00:09:18,368
Yes, of course, as long as
it's okay with her mother.

115
00:09:18,392 --> 00:09:20,411
Is it fine with your mom?
‐ I'm sure it's fine, yeah.

116
00:09:20,435 --> 00:09:22,813
‐ Okay, great.
Can we talk about this later?

117
00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,251
Uh, Moody, will you take the rolls
and put them on the table and also set?

118
00:09:26,275 --> 00:09:28,443
<i>Are you still there?</i>
‐ Yes, I'm still holding Bev.

119
00:09:28,735 --> 00:09:30,529
Mm‐hmm.
‐ Okay, yeah.

120
00:09:31,613 --> 00:09:34,241
Hi.
‐ Mm‐hmm.

121
00:09:35,409 --> 00:09:37,619
‐ She agreed to follow the ordinances
when she moved in.

122
00:09:39,204 --> 00:09:42,225
‐ Oh, great.
That's so great to hear that.

123
00:09:42,249 --> 00:09:45,043
You're a lifesaver.
All right, thank you, honey. Bye.

124
00:09:45,752 --> 00:09:47,730
Moody, don't forget the cloth napkins.

125
00:09:47,754 --> 00:09:49,524
‐ Hon.
‐ Yes, it's my fault.

126
00:09:49,548 --> 00:09:52,551
She asked for gas for the mower
and I just completely forgot.

127
00:09:53,010 --> 00:09:55,387
‐ Okay, but you're normally the one
who's out there with a ruler.

128
00:09:56,555 --> 00:09:59,641
‐ I know, but she works three jobs
and she made our dinner.

129
00:10:00,767 --> 00:10:01,727
How about you mow the lawn?

130
00:10:02,811 --> 00:10:04,998
Moody, don't forget
the forks are on the left.

131
00:10:05,022 --> 00:10:06,875
‐ I don't feel like
you're really hearing me here.

132
00:10:06,899 --> 00:10:09,085
‐
‐ Look who's here, finally.

133
00:10:09,109 --> 00:10:10,962
Oh, my goodness, Brian!

134
00:10:10,986 --> 00:10:14,198
How are you?
It has been so long.

135
00:10:14,907 --> 00:10:16,759
Why is it so hard
to get you to this house?

136
00:10:16,783 --> 00:10:19,012
‐ Thanks for having me,
Mrs. Richardson.

137
00:10:19,036 --> 00:10:21,598
‐ Always. Okay, Moody,
make sure everybody has a drink.

138
00:10:21,622 --> 00:10:24,976
We have strawberry, kiwi,
and diet peach Snapple.

139
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:27,729
And Lexie, get your brother and sister.
I don't know what's taking them so long.

140
00:10:27,753 --> 00:10:29,630
Yo, dinner.

141
00:10:31,548 --> 00:10:34,343
‐ Uh, hey.
‐ Hi, I'm Pearl.

142
00:10:34,676 --> 00:10:36,362
- ‐ Oh, you two don't know each other?
- No.

143
00:10:36,386 --> 00:10:39,139
‐ Oh, you're gonna love each other.
I'm sure you have so much in common.

144
00:10:41,433 --> 00:10:45,020
‐ No way. You must like
rap and basketball too, huh?

145
00:10:48,899 --> 00:10:50,627
<i>It's called
the Million Woman March.</i>

146
00:10:50,651 --> 00:10:52,545
I just think that that
should be for all women.

147
00:10:52,569 --> 00:10:53,963
Like the Million Man March.

148
00:10:53,987 --> 00:10:56,132
‐ Yeah, but that was actually
just black men.

149
00:10:56,156 --> 00:10:57,783
Yo, can I get a roll?

150
00:10:58,575 --> 00:11:00,595
Dude, don't be a little bitch, bro.
‐ Hey, Trip.

151
00:11:00,619 --> 00:11:01,763
Give me the rolls.
‐ He just said bitch.

152
00:11:01,787 --> 00:11:05,183
‐ Moody, I don't like that language. LEXIE: I just
think that there should be a march for everyone.

153
00:11:05,207 --> 00:11:06,893
Otherwise, it's outdated and sexist.

154
00:11:06,917 --> 00:11:09,461
‐ Mm, sexist.
Your favorite word.

155
00:11:10,045 --> 00:11:11,856
‐ Like the March on Washington.
Right, Mom?

156
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:14,174
You said that was for everyone.
‐ It was amazing.

157
00:11:14,424 --> 00:11:17,511
Young, old, white, African‐American.

158
00:11:17,928 --> 00:11:20,782
Religious leaders,
activists, union members.

159
00:11:20,806 --> 00:11:24,476
Just a beautiful blend of people.
Including Dr. King, of course.

160
00:11:25,060 --> 00:11:27,455
I remember being a child
and even at that moment,

161
00:11:27,479 --> 00:11:29,147
I knew it was monumental.

162
00:11:29,940 --> 00:11:32,192
It really was a dream. It was.

163
00:11:32,860 --> 00:11:35,004
It's like the
Minority Achievement Committee.

164
00:11:35,028 --> 00:11:37,465
Right, like, I of course
support minorities achieving,

165
00:11:37,489 --> 00:11:39,449
and yet, I can't go
to any of those meetings.

166
00:11:39,908 --> 00:11:42,053
‐ Well, the group
is kind of about, you know,

167
00:11:42,077 --> 00:11:44,681
black students
supporting each other, so...

168
00:11:44,705 --> 00:11:48,184
‐ You think?
‐ You know, no one's talking to you, Izzy.

169
00:11:48,208 --> 00:11:49,894
‐ Yeah, no one wants
to hear you talk, Lexie.

170
00:11:49,918 --> 00:11:52,397
- ‐ Okay, you two, please don't start.
- Brian, I noticed

171
00:11:52,421 --> 00:11:54,357
a real need for that at the school

172
00:11:54,381 --> 00:11:56,758
when I was dealing with Pearl
and her counselor.

173
00:11:58,051 --> 00:11:59,988
‐ Wait, what, what happened
with the counselor?

174
00:12:00,012 --> 00:12:01,573
‐ He was a jerk.
‐ Yeah.

175
00:12:01,597 --> 00:12:04,016
Mr. Bowers wouldn't let Pearl
switch to Algebra 2.

176
00:12:04,892 --> 00:12:07,203
But Elaine helped.
She fixed it,

177
00:12:07,227 --> 00:12:08,645
so I'm really grateful for that.

178
00:12:09,438 --> 00:12:12,125
‐ What about Lilith Fair?
Is that sexist?

179
00:12:12,149 --> 00:12:14,460
‐ What is Lilith Fair?
‐ It's your worst nightmare.

180
00:12:14,484 --> 00:12:15,920
Trip.
‐ No wonder they call you "Ellen."

181
00:12:15,944 --> 00:12:18,363
Trip Richardson!
I said enough!

182
00:12:26,163 --> 00:12:28,582
‐ I'm sorry, why do they
call your sister "Ellen"?

183
00:12:29,333 --> 00:12:30,876
‐ Like DeGeneres, Mom.

184
00:12:32,127 --> 00:12:33,462
‐ Because she's funny?

185
00:12:35,214 --> 00:12:36,089
‐ No.

186
00:12:43,889 --> 00:12:47,267
Um, it was last winter.
Um, she was a young mother.

187
00:12:47,976 --> 00:12:52,231
The baby was‐‐ is Chinese.
Just a couple months old.

188
00:12:52,648 --> 00:12:55,317
She has a tiny red dot on her scalp.

189
00:12:55,609 --> 00:12:57,837
‐ It wasn't this station,
but yeah, I heard about it.

190
00:12:57,861 --> 00:13:00,924
‐ So if I wanted to know
where the baby ended up...

191
00:13:00,948 --> 00:13:02,491
‐ I'd try the police.

192
00:13:05,494 --> 00:13:09,974
‐ Right. If, um, is there anybody else
I, I could also talk to?

193
00:13:09,998 --> 00:13:12,376
Just to be vigilant.
‐ Only the police.

194
00:13:13,001 --> 00:13:15,087
They're your best bet
if you want to find that baby.

195
00:13:15,838 --> 00:13:17,190
‐ Okay, thanks.
‐ Good luck.

196
00:13:17,214 --> 00:13:18,048
‐ Uh‐huh.

197
00:13:31,270 --> 00:13:33,498
‐ You didn't have to drive me.
‐ Oh, no, it was easy.

198
00:13:33,522 --> 00:13:35,875
I was running errands
on this side of town anyway.

199
00:13:35,899 --> 00:13:39,587
But I don't know how I'm gonna
get it all done before Saturday.

200
00:13:39,611 --> 00:13:43,240
‐ Right. It's essential a one‐year‐old
have a night to not remember.

201
00:13:44,783 --> 00:13:49,264
‐ You could help me if you're available.
I, I could use the extra set of hands.

202
00:13:49,288 --> 00:13:51,599
Although, maybe you're
going to Homecoming or‐‐

203
00:13:51,623 --> 00:13:52,583
‐ I'm not, Mom.

204
00:13:55,252 --> 00:13:57,188
‐ You know, you don't
have to go with a date.

205
00:13:57,212 --> 00:13:58,839
You could go with a group of girlfriends.

206
00:14:00,841 --> 00:14:02,384
What about April?
‐ Mom.

207
00:14:03,552 --> 00:14:04,761
‐ What, I...

208
00:14:08,348 --> 00:14:10,309
Is she the one
calling you names at school?

209
00:14:18,442 --> 00:14:21,904
I remember when I was in 7th grade
and Linda got boobs.

210
00:14:22,279 --> 00:14:24,031
And I was concave.

211
00:14:24,948 --> 00:14:28,368
And all the boys were flirting with her
and snapping her bra,

212
00:14:29,036 --> 00:14:31,139
and I didn't have boobs, so...

213
00:14:31,163 --> 00:14:33,057
you know what I did?

214
00:14:33,081 --> 00:14:35,918
‐ You walked the halls
without being harassed and groped?

215
00:14:37,127 --> 00:14:40,923
‐ I padded my bra,
little by little, until my boobs came in.

216
00:14:41,340 --> 00:14:45,844
‐ So you overcame your shame
of being flat by living a lie?

217
00:14:48,096 --> 00:14:51,642
‐ Well, no, I shaped the story
that I wanted to tell, literally.

218
00:14:53,393 --> 00:14:57,064
Come to think of it, it was probably my,
my first experience as a journalist.

219
00:14:58,106 --> 00:15:00,275
‐ This is the worst story I've ever heard.

220
00:15:01,485 --> 00:15:04,655
‐ Everybody's telling a story, Isabelle.
Whether they admit it or not.

221
00:15:05,113 --> 00:15:07,407
You shouldn't let those girls
write a story for you.

222
00:15:08,367 --> 00:15:11,328
If they're saying something untrue,
then you should change the story.

223
00:15:17,459 --> 00:15:19,962
Are they saying something untrue?

224
00:15:20,462 --> 00:15:23,298
‐ Of course it's untrue.
‐ Okay.

225
00:15:24,758 --> 00:15:27,469
Well then, then you should
change the story.

226
00:15:30,764 --> 00:15:33,517
How you doing out there, Cardinals?

227
00:15:37,771 --> 00:15:40,375
Brian, I 911'd you
and I 143'd last night.

228
00:15:40,399 --> 00:15:42,025
Where were you?

229
00:15:44,319 --> 00:15:46,071
Is this still about the stupid essay?

230
00:15:47,114 --> 00:15:49,592
Okay, why do you care so much
about some girl that you met once?

231
00:15:49,616 --> 00:15:51,427
‐ I don't.
‐ You don't.

232
00:15:51,451 --> 00:15:53,036
‐ No, it's not about Pearl.

233
00:15:53,537 --> 00:15:55,747
What you did, that,
that's fucked up, Lexie.

234
00:15:56,164 --> 00:15:58,142
And if you can't see that, then...

235
00:15:58,166 --> 00:15:59,585
‐ Then what?

236
00:16:02,337 --> 00:16:03,422
‐ I don't know.

237
00:16:50,260 --> 00:16:53,448
Whoo, looking good, ladies. Real good.

238
00:16:53,472 --> 00:16:55,432
Give it up for our cheer squad!

239
00:16:59,311 --> 00:17:01,414
‐ We're like trained seals.
‐ Who?

240
00:17:01,438 --> 00:17:04,459
‐ Mankind. Some so‐called authority
says clap, and we clap.

241
00:17:04,483 --> 00:17:07,170
The moment
you've all been waiting for...

242
00:17:07,194 --> 00:17:09,589
Our 1997‐‐
‐ I was thinking about going.

243
00:17:09,613 --> 00:17:11,240
To Homecoming.

244
00:17:12,157 --> 00:17:14,493
‐ With who?
‐ I don't know.

245
00:17:14,993 --> 00:17:18,515
Friends? You guys, maybe?

246
00:17:18,539 --> 00:17:21,851
Erin Flood and William Richardson!

247
00:17:26,672 --> 00:17:30,151
‐ Yeah. Yeah, I mean, if you, if you
need people to go with,

248
00:17:30,175 --> 00:17:32,135
we could, like, all go together.

249
00:17:32,928 --> 00:17:35,681
And we don't really have to be into it.
It can be more of like a...

250
00:17:36,056 --> 00:17:38,892
like a social experiment.
We could be like anthropologists.

251
00:17:42,896 --> 00:17:45,166
‐ High school dances
don't need anthropologists.

252
00:17:45,190 --> 00:17:46,876
They're their own genre.

253
00:17:46,900 --> 00:17:49,379
You've seen
<i>Sixteen Candles</i> and <i>Carrie,</i> right?

254
00:17:49,403 --> 00:17:50,797
‐ Yeah.
‐ And trust me.

255
00:17:50,821 --> 00:17:52,698
<i>Before Sunrise,</i> way better.

256
00:17:53,115 --> 00:17:56,243
‐ What if you guys do both?
The dance and then the movie?

257
00:17:56,785 --> 00:17:58,412
‐ Yeah. Yeah, I mean, we could.

258
00:17:58,787 --> 00:18:01,331
And if you're still up to it,
we could all go together.

259
00:18:02,916 --> 00:18:04,519
‐ Fine, I'll go.

260
00:18:04,543 --> 00:18:07,212
But if they play that fucking
Sugar Ray song, I'm out.

261
00:18:08,505 --> 00:18:11,175
Kristen Braun
and Jamie Sheridan! ‐ Then I'm in.

262
00:18:18,015 --> 00:18:22,036
‐ And finally, she has a perfect 4.0

263
00:18:22,060 --> 00:18:25,606
and came in third in the
Ohio state monologue competition

264
00:18:25,939 --> 00:18:29,776
for her moving rendition of
<i>Butterflies Are Free,</i>

265
00:18:30,569 --> 00:18:34,948
and he is a three‐sport athlete
and our quarterback,

266
00:18:35,449 --> 00:18:40,805
our king and queen,
Alexandra Richardson and Brian Harlins!

267
00:18:54,134 --> 00:18:55,236
‐ Hey.
‐ Hey.

268
00:18:55,260 --> 00:18:58,865
‐ So, your lawn's done,
and I filled up the mower.

269
00:18:58,889 --> 00:19:03,369
So the tank is ready to go
for next time.

270
00:19:03,393 --> 00:19:05,187
‐ Thanks.

271
00:19:08,482 --> 00:19:09,233
‐ Who shot that?

272
00:19:11,151 --> 00:19:12,945
‐ I did.
‐ Really?

273
00:19:13,862 --> 00:19:14,988
That's, uh...

274
00:19:17,574 --> 00:19:18,218
huh.

275
00:19:22,788 --> 00:19:23,830
‐ You're a lawyer.

276
00:19:25,123 --> 00:19:26,458
‐ Mm‐hmm.

277
00:19:27,417 --> 00:19:29,545
‐ Are there any immigration lawyers
at your firm?

278
00:19:29,795 --> 00:19:32,190
‐ No, not at my firm.
But I know some good guys downtown.

279
00:19:32,214 --> 00:19:34,216
Why?
‐ Do you know anyone who would

280
00:19:34,883 --> 00:19:36,194
work pro bono?

281
00:19:36,218 --> 00:19:39,030
‐ No.
The guys I know are pretty pricey,

282
00:19:39,054 --> 00:19:41,265
and they definitely
don't work for free, sorry.

283
00:19:43,392 --> 00:19:44,268
‐ Okay.

284
00:19:59,533 --> 00:20:02,160
‐ What do you think today?
<i>Springer</i> or <i>Ricki</i>?

285
00:20:02,578 --> 00:20:04,955
‐ We could do something crazy
and watch <i>Oprah</i>.

286
00:20:05,247 --> 00:20:08,852
‐ I would love to, but I kind of
got to go find a dress for Homecoming.

287
00:20:08,876 --> 00:20:12,856
‐ You can borrow something. Do you know how much
frilly shit I have in my closet I've never worn?

288
00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,756
‐ Okay.
‐ Wait, so you need a dress?

289
00:20:15,382 --> 00:20:18,635
- We should go shopping.
- Oh, um, yeah, we should.

290
00:20:19,553 --> 00:20:22,574
Oh, wait, you meant like, right now?
‐ Yeah.

291
00:20:22,598 --> 00:20:25,267
‐ Oh, uh, Moody, is that okay with you?

292
00:20:25,976 --> 00:20:27,537
‐ Yeah, sure.

293
00:20:27,561 --> 00:20:29,021
‐ All right.
‐ I'm parked in the Oval. Let's go.

294
00:20:29,897 --> 00:20:32,792
‐ Oh, um, well, bye, guys.

295
00:20:32,816 --> 00:20:34,693
‐ See you.

296
00:20:36,904 --> 00:20:39,674
‐ So the balloons,
we're gonna pick them up tomorrow.

297
00:20:39,698 --> 00:20:41,593
The catering is set.

298
00:20:41,617 --> 00:20:44,036
Oh, you did a great job
on the centerpieces. Thank you.

299
00:20:44,536 --> 00:20:46,288
‐ Oh, thank you.
‐ Thank you.

300
00:20:46,580 --> 00:20:48,916
I wish I could steal you tomorrow night.

301
00:20:50,209 --> 00:20:52,562
‐ Well, takeout duty calls.

302
00:20:52,586 --> 00:20:54,630
‐ Uh, did you see
the fortune cookie party favors?

303
00:20:55,172 --> 00:20:56,757
‐ Yeah.
‐ You should take some for Pearl.

304
00:20:57,216 --> 00:20:59,235
‐ Oh, no, thank you.
We, we have plenty.

305
00:20:59,259 --> 00:21:01,595
It's a perk of the job.
‐ Oh, of course.

306
00:21:02,346 --> 00:21:04,157
Now, your paper roses look perfect

307
00:21:04,181 --> 00:21:06,659
and mine look like
wadded up pieces of trash.

308
00:21:06,683 --> 00:21:10,371
‐ If this is what happens
when she turns one,

309
00:21:10,395 --> 00:21:11,813
what are you gonna do at 16?

310
00:21:13,565 --> 00:21:16,628
‐ Well, this isn't a typical
one‐year‐old birthday party

311
00:21:16,652 --> 00:21:17,986
with other one‐year‐olds.

312
00:21:20,364 --> 00:21:24,409
I mean, it's sort of been a process
for Linda and Mark.

313
00:21:25,035 --> 00:21:29,373
They tried for so long to get pregnant.
Decades, even.

314
00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:32,936
And all of their friends had kids
in their 20's like me

315
00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:36,213
and it was just heartbreak
after heartbreak for her.

316
00:21:36,839 --> 00:21:40,318
She always showed up for me.
When Lexie was born, she was there.

317
00:21:40,342 --> 00:21:42,177
When Trip was born, she was there.

318
00:21:42,719 --> 00:21:45,722
At every birthday party.
She threw me four baby showers.

319
00:21:47,266 --> 00:21:50,143
She even watched them when I couldn't.

320
00:21:51,478 --> 00:21:54,374
So all of this is really
just a celebration for her

321
00:21:54,398 --> 00:21:56,441
and‐and Mark as parents.

322
00:21:57,276 --> 00:21:59,921
You know, because Mirabelle,
that all happened so quickly,

323
00:21:59,945 --> 00:22:02,489
and you know, there was no time
to plan a shower.

324
00:22:02,781 --> 00:22:05,534
Obviously, they weren't there
at the birth, so...

325
00:22:05,909 --> 00:22:07,703
‐ What‐what do you mean?

326
00:22:08,579 --> 00:22:11,057
‐ Oh, haven't you met Mirabelle?
‐ No.

327
00:22:11,081 --> 00:22:14,168
‐ Oh, I just assumed.
Um, the McCulloughs adopted her.

328
00:22:14,751 --> 00:22:16,628
‐ Ah, I had no idea.

329
00:22:16,879 --> 00:22:21,234
‐ Oh, it's actually an incredible story.
I thought about pitching it to <i>People.</i>

330
00:22:21,258 --> 00:22:24,195
So Linda and Mark
had all but given up hope.

331
00:22:24,219 --> 00:22:25,738
And then, they got a call

332
00:22:25,762 --> 00:22:28,825
that there was a two‐month‐old baby girl
found starving,

333
00:22:28,849 --> 00:22:32,162
just left out,
in the dead of winter, alone,

334
00:22:32,186 --> 00:22:35,540
outside a fire station in...
it was Cleveland, I think.

335
00:22:35,564 --> 00:22:37,834
It was Cleveland.
‐ Um, um, what?

336
00:22:37,858 --> 00:22:39,419
‐ A fire station.

337
00:22:41,361 --> 00:22:43,131
I know.
Who does that?

338
00:22:43,155 --> 00:22:46,259
I mean, if you can't handle being a mom,
then don't get pregnant.

339
00:22:46,283 --> 00:22:47,468
‐ Hey.
‐ You know?

340
00:22:47,492 --> 00:22:50,078
Hey, honey.
‐ Hey.

341
00:22:50,579 --> 00:22:56,144
Um, so the, the fortune cookies.
Are those because she is...

342
00:22:56,168 --> 00:22:58,086
‐ Chinese.
It's clever, isn't it?

343
00:23:00,964 --> 00:23:03,818
‐ Oh, I'm going to Homecoming.
‐ What? With who?

344
00:23:03,842 --> 00:23:05,052
‐ Friends.

345
00:23:07,304 --> 00:23:11,159
‐ We had a conversation
and she actually listened to me.

346
00:23:11,183 --> 00:23:12,643
One for the books.

347
00:23:13,977 --> 00:23:18,482
‐ Um, Elena,
I just‐I just noticed the‐ the time.

348
00:23:19,650 --> 00:23:21,818
And I have to get home to Pearl, so...

349
00:23:22,110 --> 00:23:24,255
‐ Well, thank you for everything.
‐ Yeah.

350
00:23:24,279 --> 00:23:25,572
‐ Uh, are you okay?

351
00:23:26,907 --> 00:23:29,743
‐ Uh, yeah, yeah.
I'm, I'm fine.

352
00:23:35,707 --> 00:23:37,769
So this is fun.
Us hanging out.

353
00:23:37,793 --> 00:23:39,002
‐ Yeah, totally.

354
00:23:40,254 --> 00:23:43,882
‐ We haven't really done anything outside
of <i>Ricki Lake</i> and <i>Real World,</i> you know?

355
00:23:44,508 --> 00:23:48,029
But I guess that's kind of the cool thing
about the Shaker Heights kids.

356
00:23:48,053 --> 00:23:49,656
You know, we all hang out with everyone.

357
00:23:49,680 --> 00:23:52,283
It's not as clique‐y as some
of the other schools, you know?

358
00:23:52,307 --> 00:23:53,183
‐ Mm‐hmm.

359
00:23:54,601 --> 00:23:58,623
‐ Which is why the, um...
the math class thing was so fucked up.

360
00:23:58,647 --> 00:24:00,458
‐ It was no big deal.

361
00:24:00,482 --> 00:24:03,277
Really.
‐ But hard, you know?

362
00:24:04,528 --> 00:24:05,571
Like a hardship.

363
00:24:07,614 --> 00:24:13,203
Um, you know, your story actually
inspired the essay I wrote for Yale.

364
00:24:14,913 --> 00:24:16,391
‐ It did?
‐ Totally.

365
00:24:16,415 --> 00:24:21,479
I mean, whether you're black
or a girl, or, like, both,

366
00:24:21,503 --> 00:24:23,398
when something like that
happens to one of us,

367
00:24:23,422 --> 00:24:25,048
it's like it happens to all of us,
you know?

368
00:24:29,094 --> 00:24:30,721
Oh, my God.
Pearl, you're getting it.

369
00:24:31,263 --> 00:24:32,866
‐ I can't.
It's way too much.

370
00:24:32,890 --> 00:24:34,784
‐ Uh, you can, because I'm paying for it.

371
00:24:34,808 --> 00:24:37,996
‐ No, Lexie, I can't let you do that.
‐ Uh, yes.

372
00:24:38,020 --> 00:24:40,230
You would look way better in this
than I ever would.

373
00:24:41,231 --> 00:24:42,941
Doesn't surprise me.
You are so pretty.

374
00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:45,611
‐ Thank you.
‐ So is your mom.

375
00:24:45,819 --> 00:24:48,798
She's got, like,
this Denise from <i>Cosby</i> vibe.

376
00:24:48,822 --> 00:24:50,008
‐ Mm‐hmm.

377
00:24:50,032 --> 00:24:52,093
‐ And your dad.
Is he, is he mixed?

378
00:24:52,117 --> 00:24:53,577
Because you look so mixed to me.

379
00:24:54,453 --> 00:24:59,499
‐ Um... maybe. I don't really know.
I've never met him.

380
00:25:00,375 --> 00:25:02,211
‐ But you've seen, like,
a photo of him, right?

381
00:25:03,378 --> 00:25:06,548
‐ No.
I, um... I should probably...

382
00:25:07,966 --> 00:25:11,321
Well, you know, I once told Brian that I
was sure someone in his family was white,

383
00:25:11,345 --> 00:25:13,114
because of his mom's hair, you know?

384
00:25:13,138 --> 00:25:14,407
And then he got super offended.

385
00:25:14,431 --> 00:25:17,285
But it turns out that
his grandma's actually half‐Italian,

386
00:25:17,309 --> 00:25:20,145
so he had to apologize
because I was totally right.

387
00:25:22,523 --> 00:25:26,211
So, I'm telling you, you're‐you're mixed
with something. Ask your mom.

388
00:26:16,618 --> 00:26:17,744
‐ Hey, baby.

389
00:26:19,121 --> 00:26:21,999
‐ Are you okay?
What happened?

390
00:26:24,042 --> 00:26:25,127
What happened?

391
00:26:26,545 --> 00:26:27,504
‐ What's that?

392
00:26:29,047 --> 00:26:32,759
‐ Oh, I, um... I'm going to Homecoming
with Moody and some friends.

393
00:26:37,472 --> 00:26:39,433
‐ What's in the bag?
‐ A dress.

394
00:26:41,143 --> 00:26:42,311
‐ Can I see it?

395
00:26:45,147 --> 00:26:47,542
‐ I mean, it's nothing.
It was on sale.

396
00:26:47,566 --> 00:26:49,502
And I didn't even buy it.
The store was, like,

397
00:26:49,526 --> 00:26:51,653
practically giving them away.

398
00:27:02,581 --> 00:27:05,167
‐ This is your thing now?
Lying to me?

399
00:27:06,043 --> 00:27:07,503
Who bought this for you?

400
00:27:08,337 --> 00:27:11,298
‐
Lexie.

401
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,860
As a thank you for something
that I helped her with.

402
00:27:13,884 --> 00:27:15,862
Mom, it's not even a big deal.
‐ No, you're gonna return it to her.

403
00:27:15,886 --> 00:27:17,971
We'll find you something at Goodwill.
‐ What, no.

404
00:27:18,388 --> 00:27:21,701
If I buy something from Goodwill, I might
as well just wear a paper bag from Weinen's.

405
00:27:21,725 --> 00:27:23,495
I'm not taking that back.

406
00:27:23,519 --> 00:27:27,332
‐ You're letting some
rich spoiled white girl

407
00:27:27,356 --> 00:27:30,001
turn you into her dress up doll.
‐ No, I'm not.

408
00:27:30,025 --> 00:27:34,071
‐ She doesn't own you.
You don't belong to Lexie Richardson.

409
00:27:36,365 --> 00:27:38,367
‐ Why are you working in their house?

410
00:27:41,328 --> 00:27:43,848
‐ You know why.

411
00:27:43,872 --> 00:27:45,600
For some extra spending money.

412
00:27:45,624 --> 00:27:48,210
‐ No, see, Mom,
you could have worked anywhere.

413
00:27:49,211 --> 00:27:52,256
You want me to be honest?
You be.

414
00:27:53,423 --> 00:27:56,569
I want to know about where I came from.
Like about your parents.

415
00:27:56,593 --> 00:27:59,513
‐ You know about my parents.
‐ Besides the fact that you don't speak.

416
00:28:02,516 --> 00:28:03,851
And what about my dad?

417
00:28:05,477 --> 00:28:06,520
Huh?

418
00:28:08,814 --> 00:28:10,399
Can I at least know about him?

419
00:28:10,899 --> 00:28:14,254
‐ I told you, he is the person
who gave me you.

420
00:28:14,278 --> 00:28:15,946
‐ That's not an answer.

421
00:28:16,572 --> 00:28:19,658
What does he look like?
Is he black?

422
00:28:20,367 --> 00:28:23,012
Is he white? Is he dead?
Is he an alien?

423
00:28:23,036 --> 00:28:24,222
‐ Where is this coming from?
‐ I don't even know what

424
00:28:24,246 --> 00:28:26,498
my own father looks like, Mom.
‐ Why does it matter? He's...

425
00:28:27,791 --> 00:28:29,960
I'm black. You're black.

426
00:28:31,211 --> 00:28:35,007
You're mine.
You came from me.

427
00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:37,926
‐ Why won't you tell me?

428
00:28:40,304 --> 00:28:42,157
Why can't I know?
‐ Because it doesn't matter.

429
00:28:42,181 --> 00:28:43,783
‐ No, but it does matter.
‐ It does not matter.

430
00:28:43,807 --> 00:28:46,786
‐ It matters to me.
‐ Pearl, it doesn't matter!

431
00:28:46,810 --> 00:28:48,395
‐ What if he could help us?

432
00:28:49,479 --> 00:28:53,275
‐ Do what?
‐ I don't know.

433
00:28:53,984 --> 00:28:55,503
Buy a house.

434
00:28:55,527 --> 00:28:57,613
Not have to shop at Goodwill.

435
00:28:58,155 --> 00:28:59,907
Have a better life.

436
00:29:06,580 --> 00:29:08,498
‐ You wanted a bike.
‐ Mom.

437
00:29:08,832 --> 00:29:10,810
‐ I made you a bike.
‐ Mom, I don't‐‐

438
00:29:10,834 --> 00:29:14,647
‐ You wanted more than one wall.
I gave you four walls.

439
00:29:14,671 --> 00:29:17,674
‐ Mom, I didn't mean it like that. ‐ You
know what, Pearl? Just wear the damn dress.

440
00:29:28,101 --> 00:29:31,355
‐ No, he's not gonna wear fucking Tevas
to Homecoming. He's got a hook toe.

441
00:29:32,189 --> 00:29:34,709
Will you call Jim?
He's being a total douchebag to Serena.

442
00:29:34,733 --> 00:29:37,778
‐ Jim is a douchebag.
He makes fucking dad jokes.

443
00:29:38,278 --> 00:29:40,656
‐ Okay. Look I'm handling it.
I'm just going to...

444
00:29:44,952 --> 00:29:47,871
‐ Dude, how many times are you
gonna rent that movie?

445
00:29:48,830 --> 00:29:51,708
I didn't know Carl liked roses.
‐ They're not for Carl, dick.

446
00:29:55,337 --> 00:29:57,297
Calm down. It'll all be okay.

447
00:30:35,627 --> 00:30:38,589
It's Mirabelle Rose.
Do they even look like roses?

448
00:30:38,881 --> 00:30:41,258
Nope.
‐ They're not even pink. They're beige.

449
00:30:41,842 --> 00:30:45,238
Who doesn't know to make the stems green?
They look like body parts.

450
00:30:45,262 --> 00:30:47,115
I'm having book club flashbacks.

451
00:30:47,139 --> 00:30:50,684
Oh, my goodness, Pearl.
You look so pretty.

452
00:30:51,143 --> 00:30:53,353
Moody's inside, so go on in.
‐ Thanks, Elena.

453
00:30:53,687 --> 00:30:57,041
‐ Mrs. Richardson.
‐ Oh, Mrs. Richardson is my mother‐in‐law.

454
00:30:57,065 --> 00:30:59,711
‐ Oh.
Well, I just want her to be respectful.

455
00:30:59,735 --> 00:31:01,195
Of course.
‐ Yeah.

456
00:31:01,862 --> 00:31:03,923
Bill, will you let Mia
help you, please?

457
00:31:03,947 --> 00:31:05,717
‐ What? No, no, I'm good.
I got it, I got it.

458
00:31:05,741 --> 00:31:07,302
Okay.
‐ Okay.

459
00:31:07,326 --> 00:31:10,180
Uh, hey, is anybody taking pictures?

460
00:31:10,204 --> 00:31:12,182
Of the kids?
‐ No, of the party.

461
00:31:12,206 --> 00:31:14,475
- Because I can.
- Oh, um...

462
00:31:14,499 --> 00:31:16,793
no, I mean, I bought these
disposable cameras.

463
00:31:17,419 --> 00:31:20,088
I thought you were working tonight.
‐ I don't have to anymore.

464
00:31:21,465 --> 00:31:24,611
‐ Well, Linda would be thrilled.
I‐I could pay you, of course.

465
00:31:24,635 --> 00:31:27,405
No, please.
‐ Are you sure?

466
00:31:27,429 --> 00:31:29,073
‐ Yes, I'm, I am sure.

467
00:31:29,097 --> 00:31:32,017
‐ Mom, I need your help.

468
00:31:33,602 --> 00:31:35,288
‐ Oh, my God, honey.

469
00:31:38,607 --> 00:31:42,653
You look so beautiful.
Bill, doesn't she look beautiful?

470
00:31:42,986 --> 00:31:45,840
‐ You look great, hon.
‐ Izzy, you're bleeding.

471
00:31:45,864 --> 00:31:47,407
Oh.

472
00:31:48,617 --> 00:31:51,245
‐ I was shaving, and it caught...

473
00:31:56,542 --> 00:31:58,645
‐ Do you mind?
‐ No, go ahead. Go in.

474
00:31:58,669 --> 00:32:00,128
‐ Okay, come on, honey.

475
00:32:03,090 --> 00:32:04,258
Okay.

476
00:32:08,887 --> 00:32:10,114
Okay.

477
00:32:10,138 --> 00:32:13,767
So the shins and the knees
are always so hard.

478
00:32:17,563 --> 00:32:19,106
You can't push too hard.

479
00:32:21,525 --> 00:32:22,901
I used to push too hard.

480
00:32:26,154 --> 00:32:28,949
All right.
There we go.

481
00:32:39,168 --> 00:32:42,254
All right, let me fix your cut there.

482
00:32:49,219 --> 00:32:51,865
There we go.
‐ Thanks, Mom.

483
00:32:51,889 --> 00:32:53,432
‐ You're welcome.

484
00:32:55,517 --> 00:32:56,935
Perfect.

485
00:33:00,147 --> 00:33:01,398
Except one thing.

486
00:33:04,610 --> 00:33:05,485
Come here, honey.

487
00:33:07,196 --> 00:33:08,530
Let's see.

488
00:33:10,908 --> 00:33:15,370
Ah. This is, yes. Okay.

489
00:33:20,918 --> 00:33:23,253
Okay. Mm.

490
00:33:25,881 --> 00:33:27,257
Okay, let's see.

491
00:33:30,302 --> 00:33:31,345
Now it's perfect.

492
00:34:35,492 --> 00:34:38,429
‐ Oh, Mia, I'm so glad you found it.
‐ Hi.

493
00:34:38,453 --> 00:34:40,223
Yeah.
‐ You remember Linda from book club.

494
00:34:40,247 --> 00:34:41,057
‐ Of course.
‐ Yes.

495
00:34:41,081 --> 00:34:43,083
‐ Who could forget book club?

496
00:34:43,542 --> 00:34:46,396
Thank you so much for doing this.
That is so sweet.

497
00:34:46,420 --> 00:34:48,481
It is above and beyond.
‐ It's not a problem.

498
00:34:48,505 --> 00:34:53,194
‐ Wait, I'm sorry, did... is Liz coming?
‐ Oh, no, she said she had a work thing.

499
00:34:53,218 --> 00:34:57,139
Although it sounds like an excuse.
She's allergic to children.

500
00:34:57,431 --> 00:35:00,076
She tries to persuade anyone
who will listen not to have them.

501
00:35:00,100 --> 00:35:03,061
‐ Maybe it's better off.
She doesn't know how empty her life is.

502
00:35:04,688 --> 00:35:06,815
‐ Ele‐Elena told me your story.

503
00:35:07,566 --> 00:35:11,963
‐ It's a miracle, right?
I mean, you hope, you pray.

504
00:35:11,987 --> 00:35:15,741
Then you give up hoping and praying.
And then...

505
00:35:17,492 --> 00:35:20,495
you know, there's losses.
And then, you, uh...

506
00:35:21,788 --> 00:35:23,725
I don't know.
They say that, you know,

507
00:35:23,749 --> 00:35:26,585
your children find you
and I think it's true.

508
00:35:28,879 --> 00:35:32,192
‐ And where is she now?
‐ Upstairs napping, thankfully.

509
00:35:32,216 --> 00:35:34,611
We were able to put her down late
so she makes it to cake.

510
00:35:34,635 --> 00:35:37,322
Oh, that's so smart.
‐ And I completely forgot to tell you.

511
00:35:37,346 --> 00:35:40,283
Debbie Jarvis is coming.
‐ But she didn't RSVP.

512
00:35:40,307 --> 00:35:41,951
‐ She did.
She said she wasn't coming.

513
00:35:41,975 --> 00:35:44,162
Oh, my God.
Who does that?

514
00:35:44,186 --> 00:35:47,165
‐ Debbie Jarvis, apparently.
‐ What a piece of work.

515
00:35:47,189 --> 00:35:48,708
‐ You really outdid yourself.

516
00:36:00,911 --> 00:36:03,789
God, I mean, Tevas?
You're really fucking doing this?

517
00:36:04,122 --> 00:36:06,309
He's really fucking doing this.
Oh, my God. What about the pictures?

518
00:36:06,333 --> 00:36:08,669
‐ Wait, wait, wait, babe.
We got to make an entrance.

519
00:36:10,170 --> 00:36:11,588
‐ All right, whatever.

520
00:36:14,258 --> 00:36:16,736
‐ Okay, are you really still mad
about the stupid essay?

521
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:18,655
‐ It's not stupid.

522
00:36:18,679 --> 00:36:20,556
‐ Okay, you know I talked to Pearl, right?

523
00:36:21,431 --> 00:36:23,517
She said it was no big deal.
That's a literal quote.

524
00:36:24,601 --> 00:36:26,079
Why are you still making
a federal case about this?

525
00:36:26,103 --> 00:36:27,563
‐ Because you don't get it.

526
00:36:29,815 --> 00:36:33,652
‐ Well, I get that it's
our last Homecoming.

527
00:36:34,486 --> 00:36:35,988
And we're king and queen.

528
00:36:39,074 --> 00:36:40,534
And you look totally hot.

529
00:36:41,702 --> 00:36:42,995
Like Tyson Beckford hot.

530
00:36:48,417 --> 00:36:49,543
Mm.

531
00:36:54,548 --> 00:36:57,759
‐
<i>Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon?</i>

532
00:37:31,668 --> 00:37:33,480
‐ It's like a movie.
‐ Yeah.

533
00:37:33,504 --> 00:37:35,631
Hopefully we don't get drenched
in pig's blood.

534
00:37:46,683 --> 00:37:49,287
‐ Want to dance?
‐ If there was actual music.

535
00:37:49,311 --> 00:37:50,705
Not this shit.

536
00:37:54,775 --> 00:37:56,711
Oh, hey, Pearl.
‐ Hi, Lexie.

537
00:37:56,735 --> 00:37:58,487
You look pretty.
‐ Thank you.

538
00:37:59,071 --> 00:38:00,798
See? We're cool.

539
00:38:00,822 --> 00:38:02,509
‐ Yo, I thought you said
high school dances

540
00:38:02,533 --> 00:38:03,968
were all hype, sweat, and handjobs.

541
00:38:03,992 --> 00:38:05,053
‐ No.
‐ Oh, but then again,

542
00:38:05,077 --> 00:38:07,096
you'd‐you'd only know about
the hype and the sweat, huh?

543
00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:10,058
Okay, dumb-ass, isn't there a Jen
somewhere you need to manhandle?

544
00:38:11,124 --> 00:38:13,061
‐ Wow.

545
00:38:13,085 --> 00:38:15,021
‐ What?

546
00:38:15,045 --> 00:38:17,089
‐ Nothing, you just,
you just look different.

547
00:38:20,050 --> 00:38:23,863
‐ Oh, my God, Cusano and Totts just
got busted, like, doing it in the cage.

548
00:38:23,887 --> 00:38:25,639
Her boob was, like, totally out.

549
00:38:26,723 --> 00:38:29,202
Oh, my God, oh, my God, I love this song.
Come dance.

550
00:38:47,995 --> 00:38:49,371
Cheers, good to see you, too.

551
00:38:52,708 --> 00:38:54,018
I, would you do Paula Jones?

552
00:38:55,961 --> 00:38:59,357
I mean, shit, you've seen her.
‐ Uh, I'm good. Slippery slope.

553
00:39:19,651 --> 00:39:21,296
- ‐ Oh, hi, how are you?
- Oh, hi.

554
00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:22,672
‐ I love your dress.

555
00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:41,691
‐ Babe, babe, I'm gonna turn the game on
in the other room, all right?

556
00:39:41,715 --> 00:39:42,734
It's the playoffs.
‐ Okay.

557
00:39:42,758 --> 00:39:44,527
And it's gonna go off
as soon as she wakes up.

558
00:39:44,551 --> 00:39:46,488
Hi.
‐ Yes, ma'am, hi.

559
00:39:46,512 --> 00:39:47,930
‐ Jeez.

560
00:39:51,266 --> 00:39:54,162
That is the woman
that's in your house every day,

561
00:39:54,186 --> 00:39:55,705
and Elena's okay with it?

562
00:39:55,729 --> 00:39:57,373
‐ It was Elena's idea.

563
00:39:57,397 --> 00:39:59,107
‐ You got to be kidding me.
I want your life.

564
00:40:03,612 --> 00:40:05,507
Debbie.

565
00:40:05,531 --> 00:40:07,908
‐ Elena.
‐ Hey, it's so good to see you.

566
00:40:08,283 --> 00:40:10,536
I guess your RSVP got lost in the mail.

567
00:40:12,079 --> 00:40:14,098
We missed you at book club
a couple of weeks ago.

568
00:40:14,122 --> 00:40:16,810
‐ Well, I decided to sit it out
given everything.

569
00:40:16,834 --> 00:40:20,170
The subject matter seemed
a little close to home.

570
00:40:21,296 --> 00:40:22,774
‐ I'm sorry, I don't follow.

571
00:40:22,798 --> 00:40:24,341
‐ Well, it's not really
the place to get into it.

572
00:40:24,800 --> 00:40:27,302
I think it's good the girls
are taking some space.

573
00:40:28,262 --> 00:40:30,889
‐ Are you aware your daughter's
been bullying my Isabelle?

574
00:40:31,723 --> 00:40:33,368
‐ Okay, Elena.
‐ Spreading rumors about her

575
00:40:33,392 --> 00:40:34,494
and calling her names.
Did you know that?

576
00:40:34,518 --> 00:40:37,288
‐ Whatever April's done or hasn't done,

577
00:40:37,312 --> 00:40:40,208
it pales in comparison
to your daughter's disgusting actions.

578
00:40:40,232 --> 00:40:43,527
‐ I'm sorry.
What are you talking about?

579
00:40:45,153 --> 00:40:46,572
‐ Do you not know
what your daughter did?

580
00:41:07,426 --> 00:41:09,154
‐ Not so bad, right?
‐ Yeah.

581
00:41:09,178 --> 00:41:10,596
You make it better.

582
00:41:14,016 --> 00:41:16,018
You make everything better.

583
00:41:51,345 --> 00:41:54,097
‐ Oh, my God.
Izzy.

584
00:41:56,892 --> 00:41:59,245
‐ Would you let go of me?
‐ What are you doing?

585
00:41:59,269 --> 00:42:00,955
‐ Dancing.
‐ With Carl's hand on your ass?

586
00:42:00,979 --> 00:42:02,814
‐ Like you're not trying to touch Pearl's?

587
00:42:05,526 --> 00:42:08,570
‐ You know you don't need
to prove anything, right?

588
00:42:09,696 --> 00:42:13,951
‐ You don't get it, okay?
‐ I get it.

589
00:42:15,244 --> 00:42:18,765
You are someone that isn't afraid
of anyone or anything.

590
00:42:18,789 --> 00:42:22,960
Not Mom, not fucking April.
Look, I know you!

591
00:42:23,627 --> 00:42:26,338
And you don't give a shit
about what anybody thinks.

592
00:42:26,630 --> 00:42:28,423
And I love that about you.

593
00:42:43,897 --> 00:42:45,083
December!

594
00:42:47,401 --> 00:42:48,628
December!

595
00:43:06,253 --> 00:43:08,273
- ‐ See you around.
- Hey, uh...

596
00:43:08,297 --> 00:43:10,191
‐ Bye.
‐ Rap. Our favorite.

597
00:43:13,385 --> 00:43:16,406
‐ Look, I know Shaker's
not the easiest place to fit in,

598
00:43:16,430 --> 00:43:19,200
so if you ever need anything, hit me up.

599
00:43:19,224 --> 00:43:21,018
‐ Okay, thanks.

600
00:43:23,645 --> 00:43:25,415
‐ And um, with Lexie.

601
00:43:25,439 --> 00:43:28,692
You know you don't have to be cool
with things if you're not, right?

602
00:43:29,943 --> 00:43:31,236
‐ Why wouldn't I be cool?

603
00:43:32,738 --> 00:43:36,009
‐ I mean, she took your counselor story
and wrote it as if it happened to her, so.

604
00:43:36,033 --> 00:43:37,701
‐ Wait, you mean the one I inspired?

605
00:43:39,453 --> 00:43:42,623
‐ Wow.
Is that what she told you?

606
00:43:44,750 --> 00:43:47,187
‐ All right, movers and shakers,
it's tiggity time

607
00:43:47,211 --> 00:43:50,148
for the court to come to the flizzor
for their dance.

608
00:43:50,172 --> 00:43:52,299
Where our king and queen at?
Come on.

609
00:43:56,678 --> 00:43:58,931
‐ You‐you get that's, like, bad, right?

610
00:43:59,681 --> 00:44:01,850
‐ Bri. Brian, we're supposed to be
out there like, right now.

611
00:44:11,068 --> 00:44:12,861
‐ I don't, I don't know what happened.

612
00:44:14,446 --> 00:44:15,447
Wait, Lexie.

613
00:44:16,907 --> 00:44:18,801
Bill.
‐ Yep.

614
00:44:18,825 --> 00:44:21,119
‐ I need to talk to you.
‐ Oh, it's a tie game, babe.

615
00:44:21,578 --> 00:44:23,997
‐ Debbie Jarvis just told me
something very upsetting.

616
00:44:24,206 --> 00:44:27,185
She said that Isabelle
sexually accosted April

617
00:44:27,209 --> 00:44:28,669
this, this summer at a party.

618
00:44:30,671 --> 00:44:32,398
‐ Okay.
‐ No, it's not okay.

619
00:44:32,422 --> 00:44:36,486
She's making up rumors about our daughter
and saying them out loud.

620
00:44:36,510 --> 00:44:38,238
‐ Debbie Jarvis sells
tacky jewelry out of her car

621
00:44:38,262 --> 00:44:39,489
and calls herself an entrepreneur.

622
00:44:39,513 --> 00:44:41,324
So can we talk about this later?
‐ No.

623
00:44:41,348 --> 00:44:44,661
You need to say something.
You're the expert at defending Isabelle.

624
00:44:44,685 --> 00:44:46,287
You need to defend her.

625
00:44:50,983 --> 00:44:51,984
You think it's true.

626
00:44:53,026 --> 00:44:53,986
‐ Hon...

627
00:44:55,737 --> 00:44:59,092
I think whatever's happening
between April and Izzy, it's complicated.

628
00:44:59,116 --> 00:45:01,326
‐ Well, of course it's complicated.
They're...

629
00:45:02,202 --> 00:45:03,662
they're teenage girls.

630
00:45:08,584 --> 00:45:10,127
Did she say something to you?

631
00:45:12,546 --> 00:45:14,774
I'm her mother.
If she has told you something,

632
00:45:14,798 --> 00:45:16,317
I need to know what it is.
‐ I know.

633
00:45:16,341 --> 00:45:18,236
And this is not the place‐‐
MARK: Hey, Bill.

634
00:45:18,260 --> 00:45:21,388
‐ Yo.
‐ Top of the 9th, two outs, bases loaded.

635
00:45:22,055 --> 00:45:24,159
Hey, is that my beer?
‐ Yes, sir.

636
00:45:24,183 --> 00:45:26,786
‐ Hey, Elena.
Great party, thank you.

637
00:45:26,810 --> 00:45:27,811
Everything.

638
00:45:32,524 --> 00:45:34,460
‐ I'm gonna...

639
00:45:34,484 --> 00:45:36,004
let's talk about this later, okay?

640
00:46:04,431 --> 00:46:05,557
‐ Hey.

641
00:46:10,938 --> 00:46:12,523
Hi there.

642
00:46:26,870 --> 00:46:28,997
Hey, shh.

643
00:46:30,999 --> 00:46:32,251
Okay.

644
00:46:33,168 --> 00:46:35,230
Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

645
00:46:35,254 --> 00:46:38,090
I just need a second.
I just need a second.

646
00:46:38,465 --> 00:46:41,319
I just need a second, okay?
Shh.

647
00:46:41,343 --> 00:46:42,904
I know it's you.

648
00:46:46,974 --> 00:46:49,017
It's okay, shh, it's okay.

649
00:46:49,935 --> 00:46:53,248
I'm just gonna move you over, okay?
Just for a second.

650
00:46:53,272 --> 00:46:54,773
Just for a second.

651
00:47:05,868 --> 00:47:09,413
‐ Baby May Ling.
Hi, sweet girl.

652
00:47:09,788 --> 00:47:12,666
Hi, May Ling.
I know where your mommy is.

653
00:47:12,875 --> 00:47:15,502
I know where your mommy is.
I do.

654
00:47:16,336 --> 00:47:17,647
Yeah.
‐ There you are.

655
00:47:17,671 --> 00:47:20,733
‐ Hey.
‐ I've been looking for you everywhere.

656
00:47:20,757 --> 00:47:24,761
‐ I'm‐I'm so sorry. I‐I...
‐ Have you been up here the whole time?

657
00:47:25,762 --> 00:47:28,807
‐ Yeah, well, I wanted to get some
pictures of her when she was sleeping.

658
00:47:29,266 --> 00:47:31,619
But then she woke up and she
started to cry and...

659
00:47:31,643 --> 00:47:33,187
but now, she's great.

660
00:47:35,272 --> 00:47:36,332
Mm.
‐ Yeah.

661
00:47:36,356 --> 00:47:37,941
‐ We should probably get her downstairs.

662
00:47:38,358 --> 00:47:41,570
‐ Oh, um, yeah, yeah.

663
00:47:41,987 --> 00:47:44,299
You don't want to miss your party,
May Bell.

664
00:47:44,323 --> 00:47:45,991
‐ What'd you say?

665
00:47:48,785 --> 00:47:50,722
‐ Um, she‐you don't...

666
00:47:50,746 --> 00:47:54,374
she doesn't want to miss her party.
Mirabelle can't miss her party.

667
00:47:58,253 --> 00:47:59,838
I'll see you in a few minutes.

668
00:48:01,173 --> 00:48:04,152
‐ Linda's gonna be so excited
to have these pictures.

669
00:48:04,176 --> 00:48:07,221
‐ Of course.
What mother wouldn't?

670
00:48:21,818 --> 00:48:23,588
- You should have worn Tevas.
- What's up, dude?

671
00:48:23,612 --> 00:48:24,631
Hey, what's up, man?
‐ How are you?

672
00:48:24,655 --> 00:48:26,007
Hey, party at Dano's.
‐ Party at Dano's.

673
00:48:26,031 --> 00:48:27,908
Yeah, of course, of course.
Yo, guys.

674
00:48:28,283 --> 00:48:30,911
Hey, there's a bonfire at Dano's
if you guys want to come.

675
00:48:31,161 --> 00:48:33,806
He's got like, a Saturn full of pony kegs
and shit to burn so...

676
00:48:33,830 --> 00:48:35,225
‐ We're good.
‐ Sure.

677
00:48:35,249 --> 00:48:36,726
Yo, Trip, do you know
how to get there?

678
00:48:36,750 --> 00:48:37,751
Oh, yeah, man.

679
00:48:38,877 --> 00:48:41,022
‐ I thought we were gonna watch
<i>Before Sunrise.</i>

680
00:48:41,046 --> 00:48:43,006
‐ Yeah, yeah, no, we are.

681
00:48:44,466 --> 00:48:47,553
‐ If you want to go, go.
Uh, it's fine.

682
00:48:48,262 --> 00:48:51,324
‐ Oh, no, I mean…
it was nice of Trip to ask,

683
00:48:51,348 --> 00:48:53,243
and I thought that maybe
Lexie would be there, so…

684
00:48:53,267 --> 00:48:54,977
‐ You want to go because
Trip and Lexie are going?

685
00:48:58,272 --> 00:48:59,147
Then you should.

686
00:49:01,608 --> 00:49:03,986
‐ You know what?
Um, let's just watch the movie, okay?

687
00:49:09,449 --> 00:49:12,178
Why would you ruin Homecoming?
‐ That's what you're worried about?

688
00:49:12,202 --> 00:49:13,972
Fucking Homecoming?
‐ God, Bri.

689
00:49:13,996 --> 00:49:16,331
What fucking hardship
was I supposed to write about?

690
00:49:16,623 --> 00:49:18,560
That I have to
share a bathroom with my sister?

691
00:49:18,584 --> 00:49:20,794
That my mom won't let me
get my belly button pierced?

692
00:49:21,128 --> 00:49:24,149
This is Yale. People write about
living under Saddam Hussein

693
00:49:24,173 --> 00:49:25,859
or winning a gold medal in Atlanta,

694
00:49:25,883 --> 00:49:28,111
and the best thing that I could
come up with was Pearl's math class,

695
00:49:28,135 --> 00:49:29,845
and it's honestly
not even that fucking great!

696
00:49:33,849 --> 00:49:34,933
Look...

697
00:49:37,019 --> 00:49:40,874
a year from now, I'll be at Yale
and you'll be at Princeton.

698
00:49:40,898 --> 00:49:43,650
And yeah, we'll be together and stuff,
but it won't be the same.

699
00:49:44,318 --> 00:49:48,405
And I just…I wanted tonight to be special.

700
00:50:03,670 --> 00:50:04,796
‐ What are you doing?

701
00:50:06,673 --> 00:50:09,343
Stop, you don't have to do this, okay?

702
00:50:10,344 --> 00:50:12,513
What about Brenda and Dylan?
‐ Fuck 'em, you're right.

703
00:50:13,096 --> 00:50:15,140
Andrea's like, 30.
That show doesn't make any sense.

704
00:50:30,948 --> 00:50:33,343
She's not here.
‐ Did you check the bathroom?

705
00:50:33,367 --> 00:50:36,221
‐ I checked everywhere. I can't find her.
But I've got Mark's camcorder

706
00:50:36,245 --> 00:50:38,914
and still a couple of these
little disposables you brought.

707
00:50:39,289 --> 00:50:41,250
‐ It just doesn't make any sense.
Where did she go?

708
00:50:42,042 --> 00:50:43,394
- ‐ I'm so sure.
- You're sure?

709
00:50:43,418 --> 00:50:46,147
‐ Yes, because she has the red dot.

710
00:50:47,714 --> 00:50:49,734
I'm going to call a lawyer
first thing tomorrow‐‐

711
00:50:49,758 --> 00:50:51,861
‐ No, no, you drive me
to the house right now.

712
00:50:51,885 --> 00:50:53,929
‐ No.
‐ Please? I can drive myself.

713
00:50:54,471 --> 00:50:55,949
Give me the key.
‐ No, no, no, no, hold on.

714
00:50:55,973 --> 00:50:58,660
We have to find the best way‐‐
‐ There is no best way!

715
00:50:58,684 --> 00:51:02,062
It's the only way.
I haven't seen my baby in a year.

716
00:51:02,271 --> 00:51:05,542
I need to see her.
What if they had Pearl?

717
00:51:32,718 --> 00:51:34,970
‐ Thanks again.
‐ Look.

718
00:51:36,513 --> 00:51:39,951
I know I barely know you, but, uh...

719
00:51:39,975 --> 00:51:41,703
you seem upset.

720
00:51:41,727 --> 00:51:45,480
And if there's anything I can do to help
or just get your mind off shit...

721
00:51:49,151 --> 00:51:51,069
‐ Okay, we're recording.

722
00:51:52,905 --> 00:51:54,865
‐ Cake time, everyone!

723
00:51:56,074 --> 00:51:58,702
Everyone come to the dining room.
We're gonna sing "Happy Birthday."

724
00:52:47,918 --> 00:52:49,211
‐ That's my baby!

725
00:52:52,214 --> 00:52:54,108
What are you doing?
That's my baby!

726
00:52:54,132 --> 00:52:55,443
You took my baby!

727
00:52:56,468 --> 00:52:57,529
Get her out of here!

728
00:53:00,889 --> 00:53:02,432
‐ That's my baby!

729
00:53:03,183 --> 00:53:04,702
‐ Are you okay?
Oh, my God.

730
00:53:04,726 --> 00:53:06,812
May Ling, Mommy's here!

731
00:53:09,773 --> 00:53:11,608
<i>That's my baby!</i>

732
00:53:23,203 --> 00:53:24,430
‐ You should go.

733
00:54:02,326 --> 00:54:03,493
‐ I'm 70 cents short.

734
00:54:05,037 --> 00:54:06,246
‐ Don't worry about it, hon.

735
00:55:04,972 --> 00:55:08,559
What if she comes back?
What if it's true?

736
00:55:09,059 --> 00:55:12,205
‐ This is your baby, Linda.
No one's gonna take her from you.

737
00:55:12,229 --> 00:55:14,332
No one.
‐ Well, how did she even find us?

738
00:55:14,356 --> 00:55:16,209
‐ I don't know.
‐ She just showed up here.

739
00:55:16,233 --> 00:55:17,836
‐ I don't know.

740
00:55:17,860 --> 00:55:19,695
‐
‐ But I'm gonna find out.

741
00:55:26,243 --> 00:55:27,411
‐ Where's Pearl?

742
00:57:16,979 --> 00:57:20,479
<i>Best day ever!</i>
