-And we're live!
-(cheering)

Thank you for believing
in me and ACT-ivism.

Sometimes, I like,
kinda get a feeling...

So I was wondering if you
would like to get a drink
with me sometime?

Guys, you're gonna wanna
look at your phones...

We used to be best friends.

Until Mariana showed up,
and you chose her.

So you're like
in love with her?

You into magic? Hmm...

I love magic.

Hey, would you say
it's normal to fantasize

about another woman
during sex?

Is the woman Mariana's
new roommate?

The development company
we are trying to sue

is owned by
a Chinese company.

The company that owns
the development group

you're suing,
I represent them.

I know you're invested
in this case,

but you're not
a lawyer on it.

If I give up this case,
am I always going
to be expected

to put your career first?

Guess who I ran into?
Heather.

-Oh.
-Jamie's ex-girlfriend.

You know what they say about
Sig Pis and Kappas.

They go together.

Callie:
Jamie, I love you

but I'm not ready
to get engaged.

I didn't buy
that ring for you.

It was meant for my ex.

Okay, Andre.
Principal's office. Now.

I can't go to the principal's
office again.

Well you should have
thought about that

before you threw something
at a teacher.

I'm sorry but I don't know
how to teach kids who don't
want to be taught.

You mean black kids.

Davia:
In a racially separate,
and unequal society,

white people are the ones
who benefit.

But when we try
to talk about race,

white fragility
quickly emerges.

This is the problem with
recruiting white college grads

-to teach at diverse
urban schools.
-Oh my God...

Y'all can't relate
to your students!

And you have no clue what
their real home lives are like.

So now you wanna educate me.

The racial status quo is
comfortable for white people.

We don't have to deal
with racial stress

and feel entitled
to our advantage.

Davia:
When white people
are confronted

with their racial prejudice,

we think we're being told
we're bad people.

And feel like we have to
defend our character.

I'm not racist, okay?

I'm a good person
and I have feelings too.

♪♪

(grunts)

Hey.

I know you heard me!

As a white person,
are there racial dynamics
that I can't see?

What up, gumboot Becky?

Davia:
Am I open to
that possibility?

If we were willing to consider
the possibility

of us getting married...

-Hypothetically.
-Sure.

We have the same values,
don't we?

Where it counts.

♪ Stay down... ♪

Davia:
Aiming to be colorblind
denies the reality of racism.

-We're watching you.
-I am so sorry that
they did that to you.

Don't act like you care.

Davia:
I don't know how
to teach kids

who don't
wanna be taught.

Andre:
You mean black kids.

No. In my classroom
I don't see color.
I'm colorblind.

Yeah, well,
that's your problem.

Davia:
White tears is how
our fragility presents,

as we cry about how hard
racism is for us.

I tried to tell you...

You lied to me.

Davia:
We need to feel grief

about the brutality
of white supremacy

and how we benefited from it.

But our grief must
lead us to action.

It's not enough
to acknowledge racism.

We must act to interrupt it.

What?

Why did Heather say no?

I think she knew we
weren't really a match.

Well, I heard that Kappas
and Sig Pis just go together.

It was no big thing.

But it's not a small thing.

You must have loved her.

To propose.

(clears throat)

She was the kind of girl
I was expected to marry.

-I'm certainly not.
-Exactly.

-Oh, I'm your act
of rebellion.
-Am I yours?

I think the best matches
are the unexpected kind.

And I don't want
a marriage like my parents'.

I would like a relationship
as strong as my moms.

Who are very different people.

True, but they have
the same values.

If we were willing to consider

the possibility
of us getting married.

-Hypothetically.
-Yes.

We have the same values,
don't we?

Where it counts.

Yeah.

So, why'd you hold on
to the ring?

Just thought you'd dust it off
and try it on the next girl.

Yeah, depended
on who the girl was.

Hmm.

But, if say that girl
was you...

Nah, it's not

I think we got up
too early this morning.

Definitely.

-We should go back to bed.
-Mm-hmm.

-We're gonna be late for work.
-We'll skip the foreplay.

(Callie laughs)

Hey, Principal Solomon,
can I have a word?

Davia, yes, come in.
Have a seat.

And please, call me Dan.

Oh, uh, thanks, Dan.

What can I do for you?

Uh, I wanted to talk to you
about one of my students,

Andre Johnson, and this
diversion program that he's in.

Sure. What would
you like to know?

Well, apart from roughing
students up in the hallway

and confiscating their
permanent markers,

I'm not really sure what
this program is all about.

It's a pipeline to prison.

Targeting mostly
students of color?

Pretty much.

Well, this program is about
diverting kids

who are getting in trouble
at school

from getting in trouble
with the law.

Jordan:
The only contact most

of these kids
have with the law,

is these probation officers
treating them like criminals.

We're trying to keep these
at-risk kids out of gangs.

What they're at risk of
is racial bias.

We're giving them
tough love here.
That's the whole point.

They're being too lazy
to come up with

real solutions
outside of law enforcement.

These kids,
they need discipline.

Right?
They need to be told
what's right from wrong.

Some of them need
more discipline than others.

You treat a kid
like a criminal,

they're more likely
to become one.

We're telling these kids
that you can be somebody.

These kids are in middle school.

Is getting in trouble
with the law

really that much of a concern?

Trust me. I've seen it happen
with so many of these kids.

And it just...

Breaks my heart.

Well, I think I overreacted

the last time I sent Andre
to your office

and I would like that
struck from his record.

Davia, you're not
the first teacher
to send him to my office, okay?

He's obviously not getting
the kind of parenting
he needs at home.

You did him a favor.

Ugh...

I really screwed up.

The whole system
is screwed up.

The whole purpose
of public education

was to promote social equality.

Here you go.

Every single one
of my students

deserves a chance
at success in life.

But not every one of them
gets that opportunity.

Well how can I help Andre
and my other students?

You can join
the Equity Committee.

We're a group of teachers.

We meet a couple
times a week.

We work on a plan
to do better by our kids

and close the achievement gap.

I'm in.
Whatever I can do.

Okay! Well we're meeting
tonight at my place

so I'll just text you
the address.

Sounds good.

♪♪

How's it feel?
Being the first all-female
team at Speckulate.

-Amazing.
-It's great.

So empowering.

There's this perception
that women don't work
well together.

Yeah, like we're gonna
cat fight instead of code.

Right? But I've had
so much less drama

working with these ladies

than any primarily male team
that I've ever worked on.

-Same
-Same.

I've launched apps before.
Where's my photo shoot?

You see, when a woman
launches an app,
it's so rare, it's news.

Because the opportunity
is rare.

When's your glamour shoot?

You're green team-ish, right?

He's whatever Mariana
wants him to be.

She's green. He's blue.

She's blue. He's green.

Can we talk about
my privacy proposal
for the new app?

No. Evan is not gonna like it.

What we can talk about,
is this salary
laddering bullshit.

And how it's gonna turn
a meritocracy into mediocrity.

What can you tell me about
the new salary laddering plan?

I understand that's another
project you all took on.

Well, laddering levels
the playing field

and ensures income equality
for women and people of color

doing the same work,
as say, their
white male counterparts.

It's not just about the women.
I'm finally being paid

as much as Sam
for doing the same work.

-But is it the same work?
-No.

I rest my case.

-Raj's is better.
-What? How so?

Oh. Look who's ready
for his close up.

Sam:
Is my work even good?

It's your girlfriend's
boyfriend.

Uh, Mariana. Can you have
a seat there, maybe.

-Looks great. Feel good?
-Yeah.

Evan:
Uh, yes...

(shutter clicks)

So Evan, an activism app
doesn't seem like

an obvious choice
for Speckulate.

Well, maybe not
the old Speckulate.

So Mariana's
enlightened you.

Ah, she has, uh,
definitely opened my eyes

to many things
that needed fixing.

And, Mariana. You've only
been here a short time.

What was it like pitching
your idea to uh, the boss?

Oh. Well, I was terrified.

Really? Huh.
Seemed cool
as a cauliflower.

(laughs)
Um, no, I wasn't
cool as anything.

I was a nervous wreck.

And, uh, what was your
first impression of Mariana?

Uh... well...
I thought she was
incredibly bright.

And confident.

Enthusiatic.

Everything I'm looking for...

in an engineer.

You-you were kidding
about Raj's work

being better than mine...

-...right?
-Nope.

He's more focused
than you.

Yeah, sure, I'd be
focused on work too

if I had to watch my boss
do publicity porn
with my girlfriend.

Alex:
There's so many things
wrong with that statement.

First, the idea of you
even having a girlfriend.

-Sam: Someday--
-Alex: And two,
can I finish?

Two, how would
being distracted
make you more focused?

Have you ever tried
to like cook or shower...

Evan,
let's lose the jacket.

Maybe pull up
your sleeves a bit.

Just loosen you up. You know?

Here. Got it.

Sam:
You gotta play music so
you can distract yourself...

then you get
the task done faster.

Okay, let's talk about
gumboot Becky.

I know it was
pretty dumb of me

to teach you a dance
about black oppression.

-I thought it was funny.
-I didn't. It was awkward.

And I hear that.

I just wanted to find
a way for this class

to connect to the material.

But it wasn't cool
how you put on a costume

and dance like you understood
what you were doing.

You're right.
And I'm sorry.

Look, sometimes
I don't get it because...

Well, as a white person

I'm not forced
to think about my whiteness

and how that might allow me
to be clueless about some stuff.

But I want to do better.

And I want you all to
feel like can call me out--

For real?

-Absolutely.
-Your perfume smells
hella cheap.

(laughter)

Constructively.

Seeing somebody who
does the dance for real

would have been dope.

You're right, and I
should have tried
to reach out to someone

who understood
the culture and the history.

-Okay, but my
dancing aside...
-(laughter)

what did you all think
about the gumboot

and how it was used
as a communication tool?

(stammers)
I thought it was cool.

I read that a lot of the miners
didn't speak the same language.

So even if they
were allowed to talk,
they couldn't.

So the dance kinda like,
bridged the language gap too.

That's right, Andre.

So downloads for ACT-ivisim
have been growing

which has generated a lot
of amazing feedback.

But I do think that we
could expand on that buzz.

The article's
gonna be great...

Does she want people to know
that her app is shitty?

What? Sorry. I fell asleep.

So if we could reach
our target users,
we'll see more traffic.

Agreed.
We'll talk to ad sales.

Thank you.

Seriously, he's
throwing more money

at this loser? How?

Oh. Um, I would love
to bring Rachael on the team

to help with outreach.

Okay. Approved.

What about my request
for additional coders

for the new
social media project?

Shouldn't that be our priority
seeing how it could

actually make the company
some money?

The social media project has
all the resources it needs.

But when your team
starts working as hard
as the green team

to meet its deadlines,
then maybe I'll consider

investing additional resources.

-Left word to call him back.
-Okay. Thanks.

Instead of helping us improve

Look, I don't know what happened

So, Lisa's gonna take
the offer back
to the other plaintiffs?

It's a lot to ask these tenants
to fight gentrification

when the bottom line is,
they're renters.

They don't own their homes.
And that much cash in hand

can solve a lot
of short-term problems.

Okay, but what about
the long-term ones?

It's hard to focus
on the long-term when

you're living hand-to-mouth
like most of these folks.

So, you think
the lawsuit's dead?

I think no one else
is gonna offer them
this much money to move.

What is so special about
this particular building?

I don't know.
Why don't you
ask your boyfriend?

So you're okay with me
and Isabella?

Yeah.

Of course I am.

I fell back that Raj
is stuck on blue team

and I'm getting all of
this attention for the app.

I just wish that
there was something

that he as passionate about,
that made him happy.

Isabella:
Well, he loves magic.

I mean, he could get
good enough to perform.

He's terrified to get
up in front of people.

Even pitching at work
gives him heart palps.

But what about people
who aren't adults?

I think I may have an idea.

You don't need
my approval to do
kids' parties with Isabella.

You get to perform your magic
which I know you love.

I did crush it.

-You sure?
-Yes.

If it makes you happy,
it makes me happy.

(quietly):
Okay.

So what did you
want to tell me?

(phone vibrating)

-What manifesto?
-What?

Hey, guys.

Hi.

"Why the women engineers
at Speckulate

aren't equal to the men"?

♪ Whoa ♪

♪ Got that goo
G-double-o like Google ♪

♪ Fortnite dance
in the... like Mewtwo ♪

♪ Cool cool
got juice juice juice ♪

♪♪

I tried to tell you.

You lied to me.

♪♪

I didn't lie to you.

You said that you
have nothing to do
with this case,

or CC Hastings,

that you represent
Anwei's other interests.

And that was true,
until at the last minute,

they asked me to step in
on this negotiation today.

Why didn't you tell them
it was a conflict of interest?

Because,
technically it isn't.

You're not on
the case anymore.

Because you said that they
would get their day

in court
with our without me.

I was unfamiliar
with the Ellis Act

which allows building owners
to evict tenants

because they're claiming
they're going out of
the rental business.

Well there are exceptions.

They've already
gotten approval, Callie.

You can stall the inevitable
but you won't win.

Wow. It sounds like
you were very persuasive.

Where I was persuasive was
in convincing CC Hastings

to double the money
they're offering the tenants.

and to increase the number
of affordable living units.

It's still wrong.

They're powerless
and they're being
taken advantage of

by powerful companies
lining their pocket.

I don't disagree,
but until the law changes,

this is a whole lot better
than what they were gonna get.

I'm sorry I blindsided you,
but I tried to do right
by those people.

"Salary should be
based on merit,
skill and competency

and not reverse discrimination
against white males."

"Men are better suited
to high-stress jobs

"because women are more
interested in life-work balance,

relationships,
and starting a family."

"If women engineers
were qualified

"and could do their job
better than male engineers,

"they wouldn't have to get
special favors from their bosses

"who use $10,000
of their own money

"to bail them out of
an app failure

like Mariana Adams Foster
and her ACT-ivism app."

I never asked Evan to
bail me out of that glitch.

-I wanted him
to garnish my wages.
-I know that.

Now everyone's gonna
think that he did me
some special favor.

Wait.

How did whoever
wrote that know about
the 10K and the glitch?

-(music blasting)
-(toy vibrating)

Oh, she swears
Evan's not into her.

Dude, Evan wants her.

-We all want her.
-Right?! Wait.

Not-- no, no, no.
Not like technically
but like conjecturally.

Right. Right.
I mean, why else would he

bail her out
with his own money?

Whoa, whoa, whoa...

Like out of jail,
like she got arrested?

No, no, no.

We had a code glitch
during the beta test.

Yeah, it doubled
the event donations
by $10,000

and Evan picked up the tab.

That's like... (scoffs)

Yeah.

Right.

Did you tell anyone?

I... might have...

I... mean I forgot, but

now I remember.
I was really drunk.

And upset after
you had drinks with Evan

and didn't tell me
and so I

did, I told...

Alex.

(scoffs)

Wow, um, you told
the one person
who's been horrible to me

since my first day
at Speckulate and still
calls me Mary Anna?

I'm so sorry.

-I can go.
-No, stay.

I might need you to
keep me from killing Raj.

-I was really drunk.
-Bad excuse.

Now everyone's
gonna think that Evan
gives me special treatment.

And none of my hard work
is gonna matter at all.

For the record, I told Alex
the glitch was my fault.

(stammers)
And it was whiskey...

Okay, still bad, Raj.

At least we know it was Alex.

We have no proof.

I'm sure he
covered his tracks.

There no way
to trace it back to him.

I'll get the proof.

I'll find a way.
I'll make this right.
I promise.

♪♪

So you have feelings for me?

♪♪

I do, uh...

have some feelings sometimes.

But I have a boyfriend
who I really love.

What if you didn't?

I still wouldn't
act on those feelings.

Why?

Because you're my boss.

And everyone
would assume that

any success
I've had at Speckulate

was based solely on my
relationship with you.

-It's what they think now.
-Well they're wrong.

You've earned everything
at this company.

I know.

And I intend
to keep it that way, so...

I don't want you to invest
any more money into my app.

I'll find a way to get
the word out and get us
more downloads

without help from ad sales.

So these feelings?

We just don't
feel them anymore?

We can't.

Agreed.
