I know it's in here.

- This is so stressful. - Okay, okay.

No, no, I got--okay, let me read one line.

- Okay. - 'Cause this is the best part.

Okay.

"Here was a woman"... Mm-hmm.

Yes.

"Suggesting that I amputate my stomach

in order to fit some male-driven aesthetic"...

Stop. - "Ideal."

You don't need to read it... Gold.

Out loud to me.

- It's gold. - Thank you.

- You tore Dr. Monte Cristo-- - Monte Cristo?

It's Montevista. - I mean, you nailed her.

You think? Yeah.

Okay.

but there's something terrifying--

Whatever you want, I will do it.

Don't--just don't hurt me. - I could, though.

I'm so scared right now.

This is why I gotta keep taking you out to breakfast, I guess.

Yeah.

That's right.

I will not make a single false move.

- Thank you. - Yeah.

Um, I should go to work, you know?

I'm, like, gonna be late. I think I have some cash.

Uh, I got it. Don't worry about it.

Wow, okay.

Yeah, am I gonna see you this week?

I mean, I'm around, you know,

but don't act like you're not gonna, like,

Bye.

I'll see you later.

Annie! - Whoa.

My doctor's in his 80s, and the last time I went in,

he diagnosed me with hysteria. - Oh, gosh.

Maureen, well, yeah, I don't know.

I just thought if maybe I shared my experience,

I could help someone. - Yeah, you really helped me.

I am never going to the doctor again.

Oh, that's not... what I was trying to say.

Excuse me, hello. - Hey, buddy.

Oh, wow, is this Nick's cover?

- Yeah, it's good, right? - Oh, yeah.

Wish I could use him every week.

Oh, my God.

What's that?

Well, I'm just-- I'm gonna text it to him.

Oh, yeah, you could do that,

Okay, yes, I am having male breakfasts,

but don't look at me like that 'cause it's nothing serious.

Well, that's good because I think I know somebody

who is perfect for you. - Oh, okay, I'm interested.

Yeah? All right.

I've known him for a really long time--

He is perfect, and I realized that you two

are probably perfect for one another.

Wow, you've said we're perfect for each other,

like, three times. - That's perfect.

Oh, my God, okay, well, then give him my number

and tell him to text my dumb ass.

I will do that.

- Nasty girl. - Ooh.

I can't believe I gave that girl

with a turd twice her size.

What kind of person doesn't plunge their own dump?

That should be federal law. I know.

And to think that she was sitting on this dump

the whole time I was cutting her hair.

Wow, what a sick fuck.

God, I'm so tired of clients invading my space.

I want my home to be my home, and my work to be my work.

Why don't you get a job in a salon?

Because I worked in a salon in college,

and it's just a lot of towel folding

and backstabbing between girls named Lauren.

You should check out this place Shave.

My friend Murray loves it.

It's very, like, queer and collective-y.

Hmm.

That's very helpful and supportive,

which feels shady for some reason,

Yes, you should, and then you should

check this place out.

Yeah, I think I have time tomorrow.

But if I have to fold one towel, even a queer towel,

I'm gone.

- So that's hate speech. - Hi, baby.

- Oh. - How you doing?

And I'm actually really good, thank you.

Uh, so that's the new reimbursement policy.

which is smashing our traffic records.

- Way to go, Annie, whoo! - Oh, yes, wow!

Oh, thank you so much, Annie. - Yeah!

Wow, thank you so much for breaking Ryan's heart!

- Stop it! - Stop what?

Us from protecting our guy? Never!

Okay, do we really need the distro guys,

like, at a content meeting?

Unfortunately, yes.

"The Thorn" needs content engagement

now more than ever,

so everyone here

Yes!

I'm a content creator!

Oh, you can do your vlog.

Wait, how is that gonna work?

Well, our seasoned writers are going to tackle

the bigger issues, and everyone else

is going to pitch stuff to pad out the blog.

Can we do "Top Ten Angels to Pray To?"

Yeah, that sounds good.

Oh, you guys are gonna love my political cartoons.

It's like "Doonesbury" but a porno.

That's literally-- I told you that idea.

Yeah, but you didn't put it on paper.

Ah!

Okay, okay, guys, save those pitch ideas

for next week, which is Brain Cabin.

Oh, I'm gonna go to Brain Cabin,

- Why would I do that? - Yeah, no thank you.

Why would I do that?

It's, like, our annual camping trip

Last year, Gabe paid for a s'mores cart

that burned Angus so bad he had to go to the hospital.

It wasn't so bad.

Oh, Annie, you got a call in my office

from a certain Dr. Montevista.

Ooh! Ooh!

The principal of the newspaper wants to see you.

Ooh! - Ooh.

Have fun in detention. - Yeah.

I got a review calling me "Dr. Dumbshit"

just for doing my job.

Look, you know, it's not my responsibility

to teach you how to treat fat people with dignity, so...

Well, that's why I'm calling.

My practice will be implementing

a health at every size approach.

Wow, wow, that's amazing. Thank you.

So you'll take down the slanderous article?

Uh--

If you have a problem with that, talk to our lawyer.

Thank you and fuck you.

Triumph! - Wow.

God, doctors are just drug dealers

with their finger up your ass, aren't they?

Yeah, yeah, thanks for having my back.

Well...

not that you do the same for me.

Gabe, what's going on? I thought we were good.

Well, we were good until you sold me out to Sheila

at that ladies who talk shit lunch.

I really didn't.

All I said was that Amadi is great.

Yeah, Amadi's great, she's awesome, and you're fun.

Whatever, okay?

You know, I'm busy with my memoir here.

Too busy to give a shit.

What do you think of this title,

"King of Queens."

Like the TV show?

What is that?

Hey, Annie.

Ryan, no, we're not gonna talk.

Okay, totally. Dude, what?

She's acting like you don't even exist, man.

You know what?

Listen, attention, everybody!

Attention, there is a workplace safety issue!

Annie is basically a praying mantis

where she eats-- she cuts the guy's head off

after sex and eats the body!

- Okay, just stop. - Yeah, Reggie.

Can you get off the table? Okay, just stop.

Get off the table. You know what?

This is for Ryan!

Oh, my God!

That's right! Oregon, baby!

Best state in the nation!

We got a coast, and I can be in Canada in 15 minutes!

That's right! Fuck you, Annie!

Whoo!

Annie!

Jesus.

I'm sorry.

Yeah, well, did you tell them to scream at me

in front of everyone?

I mean, that's fully harassment.

No, I didn't. They just did that.

They're very protective. I'm sorry.

Okay, well, it's very embarrassing

and shitty, and you need to do something about it.

So you get to tell me what to do,

but I don't even get to talk to you?

Is that it? - Yes, that's it.

That's a breakup. - Annie, I don't get it.

Like, how do you go from talking all day, every day

to just nothing?

Because I'm trying to put, like, a separation

between us, okay?

And just because we work together

doesn't mean that we need to see each other.

You guys work in the loading dock.

I mean, Reggie says that the dock is, like, his office

and he needs privacy.

I think he's just jacking off in there.

Look, I'll talk to them. - Okay, thank you.

Yeah.

Did you get a car?

I actually borrowed my mom's car

so I could park near you.

Okay, well, you can tell your mom

that she can have her car back.

I'm actually thinking about buying it,

so it'll be my car.

But I get your point. - Okay.

Boundaries.

I don't think it's here, so I'll come back

and check in a couple days when I, like, come

to water the plants and stuff.

Oh, honey, don't overwater my burro's tail.

I can see behind you.

It looks in distress.

No, it doesn't, okay?

Just don't worry. Have fun.

Are you still enjoying the road trip?

Are you the queen of RV life?

Loving it.

Um, how's dad doing? Okay?

Great--after all that time spent in doctor's offices,

it's just so great that your dad is cancer free.

And we can go on adventures again.

I know. I know.

Um, well, when are you coming back?

Whenever we fucking feel like it.

Okay, got it.

Well, I got it under control, so do your thing.

Explore, y'all.

You deserve it.

Um, say hi to Dad for me, okay? Bye.

Bye.

So as you can see, I've also done styling

for photoshoots as well. - Right, yeah, yeah.

No, that's perfect.

and we love to offer our own stylists.

Oh, my God, I would love that.

So we have seven stylists here,

and they all contribute 10% to rent

because we're a collective. - This is great.

Honestly, my dream place to work.

Well, now it's not just a dream.

There's only two rules.

One, don't be an asshole, and two, be vegan.

Are you vegan? - No.

That's okay.

Just don't do any, um, uh...

God, what do they call it?

Um, you know what I'm talking about.

It's something insane. It's something insane.

It's like--oh, my God.

Barbecuing, don't do any barbecuing here, okay?

No barbecuing within the confines of the salon.

Absolutely, got it. Great.

Oh, um...

Oh.

It'll be okay.

Thank you.

Amazing, thanks! See you next week.

♪ Stack, stack, stack it up ♪

Watch out!

Oh, my God!

Yes, just call me and, like,

Then just have fun and try not to think about me.

Okay.

See, now you're making me nervous.

like, Google him or something?

No, it's more romantic if you do it the old-fashioned way.

Yeah, I guess that's true.

Yeah, he is.

Very gentlemanly. - Yeah, okay.

Well, I'm gonna go now, okay? Bye.

Okay, have fun.

It's a sign. It's a sign.

Just as I was leaving the salon,

I saw a man get hit by a car.

Oh, my God, was he okay?

Yeah, I think so, but the thing is

is that it's a sign that that's where I need to be.

I start next week. - Babe, I am so happy for you.

There's more.

The guy who was driving the car that hit the bike

was some city councilman, so I got interviewed

by the Portland 16 News as an eyewitness.

Portland 16? Yeah.

They put the news in neighborhood.

Yeah.

- Wait, what is? - Excuse me.

This is our home, not some kind of photoshoot

for cute models.

Look, I don't know what you're talking about.

I'm sorry to interrupt, but Fran is going to be

on Portland 16 at 10:00. - What?

Oh, my God.

Yeah, so we need to call everyone we know

and get them to come over and watch me

become a huge celebrity. Shit.

I have this blind date now.

Maybe I could just bail?

I mean, you know Nick

is truly my number one potential boyfriend,

and I don't want to cheat on him

with another potential boyfriend.

No, no, you're not going to bail.

You're just going to come late.

We're doing a little dude tasting pot thing here.

Everything is cooking. Get your mise en placeon.

You're right.

I eat men.

I eat men.

Sounds gross.

And I eat you too.

Ah, come on.

Hi, I'm meeting someone here.

I think the reservation is under Will.

Oh, yeah, he's right over there.

Of course.

- Annie, hi. - Hi.

Hi, wow, it's so great to meet--

oh, oh! My God.

I'm sorry about that. Please take a napkin.

Hi, nice to meet you.

I'm really sorry. - It's all right.

I belong in a cave, I really do.

Uh, sorry. Please keep this.

Shall we sit? - Mm-hmm.

Yeah. Yeah, okay.

Man.

Sorry again about that.

Well, this has been great.

Should we go back to my place?

Um...

Are you all dry now?

Not really.

I think it mostly ended up

on those people.

Thankfully.

No, good aim. Yeah.

Yeah, um...

Well...

you work at the Museum of Science and Industry, right?

Right, yeah, although that makes me sound

like a scientist or something.

Cool. Yeah, it's great.

If anything goes wrong,

we put their handprints in paint,

call it science. - Smart.

Yeah.

So you and Amadi must know each other pretty well?

Mmm, yeah, I guess.

Um...

Yeah, why do you think he set us up?

That's a good question, wow.

Um, probably because you're very pretty and cool,

and I'm divorced.

I don't know if Amadi told you

if I'm-- that I'm divorced, actually.

No, he didn't really tell me

anything about you at all...

Other than that we would be perfect together.

Awesome.

I'm sure it's pretty obvious this is my first date

now as a single person, and I promised

I wouldn't tell you that, but I have,

No, no, I--I think I'm just distracted.

That's okay. I'm nervous too.

Oh.

Should we get dinner?

I read they have a great burger here.

I--I actually think I probably only have time

for one drink. - Really, yeah?

Okay.

Actually, could you excuse me for a minute?

I think I'm just gonna step away.

- Sure, yeah. - I'll be right back.

I'll see you soon.

I'm back.

Yeah.

Well, I didn't know you'd miss me so much

you'd text me from the bathroom.

What?

"On truly the worst date of my life."

I mean, I knew I wasn't killing it.

I didn't know I was doing that bad.

Oh, my God, Will, I'm so sorry.

I obviously didn't mean for you to see that, and--

Yeah.

I think Amadi didn't actually think

about, like, what we were looking for.

He just sort of lumped us together

because we're both...

We're both what?

I mean, we don't need to get into it, like, right now.

You know?

Okay, let's call it a night.

Um, on the bright side,

it's actually the best date of my life, so thank you.

Really?

No.

Yeah, sorry, I don't know.

Hello.

Done already? How was it?

Yeah, it sucked.

so we're perfect for each other?

That is so fucked, Amadi.

Wait, hold--Annie, no.

Um, hey, Zauna, can you go to bed,

and I'll finish your homework when you're asleep?

Hey, I'm sorry. What?

You think that I only set you up because you're fat?

Yes, and he knew it, and I knew it,

and it hung over the whole thing,

and it was bad for both of us.

Look, I'm sorry you think

that something weird is going on,

but I set you up with Will

because he's a genuinely good guy.

Okay, whatever. I'll see you at work.

in the nation for opioid and narcotic addiction.

I mean, shut up about opioids.

Where's my moment?

Cause major health and economic...

- Wow. - Just be still.

Okay.

I'm sorry your date went so bad.

It's fine. Honestly, I don't care.

I'm glad it's over, and now I invited over

the skirt biter. - Okay, sauce pot.

I'm trying to sauce so hard.

Well, tell him to get here soon

'cause he might not be able to get past the paparazzi.

That she called herself.

Oh, I know.

Okay, this is it! Everyone, shut up!

Charles Klein's vehicle collided

with a bespoke cycling enthusiast.

Now, the cyclist whose social media

and man about town... - Hi.

- Hey, what's up? - Nothing.

You made it just in time. - Oh, good.

You look great.

No.

Sounds like there was a bit

of a surprising collision for Charles Klein.

- Oh, my God, that's Fran. - Shut up!

- Fran! - Shut up.

Sounds like it was pretty crazy, huh?

Yeah, it was.

Thanks so much for that excellent reporting.

Whoa!

Yeah, it was!

Yeah, it was!

Yeah, it was!

Yeah, it was! Yeah, it was!

Yeah, it was!
