- How unhappy are you with our marriage?

- I think about as unhappy as you.

- Miles. I miss it, the passion and the spark.

- I didn't think you read my stuff.

- Your piece on whether or not you're a bad feminist

for taking back your cheating boyfriend,

that was--well, that was you, right, Ryan?

- I don't trust him.

- You gotta give me credit.

- Conversion therapy is still legal in 32 states.

- We can't use Travis' image.

- We need to jujutsu this. - This is amazing.

- So you'll run it by legal again?

- I will. - So what's the problem now?

- We're gonna get to the bottom of it.

You're gonna style Alice Knight.

- You're an assistant? - Please let me explain.

- You wasted my time.

- Oliver, please say something.

- You're willing to move across the country to be with me.

- I wanna start our new life together now.

- How about this weekend? - That works for me.

- Let's get married.

[both laugh]

- Kat, Jane, I know it's early.

I gotta tell you guys something,

and it's not gonna be easy,

you know, because I love you.

Richard and I are getting married this weekend,

and we're moving to San Francisco. [sighs]

- Oh, God, they're speechless.

- [sighs]

- How am I gonna tell them that I'm leaving?

They're my family. - Kat and Jane will understand,

because family always does.

- It's gonna be a long day. I have to tell the girls

and ask Oliver, even though he's still mad at me.

But you know what would start it off right?

- I think I do. - Mm.

Adena El-Amin's piece on conversion therapy,

I was told we couldn't publish it

because we were concerned that the parents might sue.

- That's why we have legal.

- Right, but it shouldn't be a legal issue

because Travis isn't identifiable.

- Are you a lawyer, Kat? - No.

- Well, go to law school, pass the bar,

and then I'll be happy to resume this conversation.

- Right, but I don't need to go to law school to know

that the sanctioned torture of children is a moral issue,

and I don't understand why-- - Legal said no, Kat.

I know that's not a word you hear often,

but it's a word that's not gonna change.

you're the closest thing to a spiritual leader

that I have,

and without you, Richard and I wouldn't even be together.

- That's true. - And on my wedding day,

there is no one I'd rather get wisdom from than you.

So you don't have to get ordained or anything.

Oh.

Oh, I could also walk you down the aisle,

Yeah, that would be too much, unless you really want me to.

it's actually been pretty fun,

because these two are pretty wild.

[laughter]

- It was pretty ballsy of you breaking in here like this.

- We do stuff like this, like, frequently.

- No, we don't. - No.

- She doesn't mean that.

Listen, Alice, I've seen your work.

It's incredible, and I think that "Scarlet"

would be really lucky to have you,

but you'd also be really lucky to have "Scarlet,"

so you can hate me if you want to,

but please don't take it out on the magazine.

- Is this really your bachelorette?

- Yes! - Yes, it really is.

- And we had other plans, like, cool plans.

Like, we had this whole, like, dance battle choreography

thing, like, you know.

- Ready? Yeah, we were like-- - It was pretty sick.

- I don't know if you should do the dance.

- We did this thing, and it went like--

- Wow. - It was so cool.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

- Like some swans, you know?

- No, I don't.

Okay.

Okay. I'll call Jacqueline about the job offer.

- You will? - Yes, I will.

And since it's your bachelorette,

if you guys want to do whatever that was over there,

I think I can help you out.

- Seriously? - Really?

- Yeah. - Ooh.

- Hello, Kat? - Oh.

Oh. - Hello, Kat?

- Mary? - I'm still here.

- Oh. So sorry.

- Clearly, your friends mean a lot to you

and so does "Scarlet."

The magazine means a lot to me too.

I think I can help you.

- Oh, my God. That would be amazing.

- Call me tomorrow. - I will.

Thank you so much.

- I mean, are we doing this? Because Rihanna's gonna be

out in ten minutes. all: Yes!

- Oh, okay. Let's go. - My girl Ri-Ri is here?

- You are so fab, and now everybody knows it.

Look at all those followers. I'm so proud of you.

- Thanks. - Me too.

- Yeah.

This is fun. - Mm-hmm.

I still can't believe you're leaving.

- This is wonderful news, Alice.

All right. Thank you so much. - Hey.

- Bye-bye. Great news.

Alice Knight is officially our beauty editor.

- Really? - Yes.

- How'd you pull that off?

- Actually, Sutton did most of the work.

Apparently, she spent the majority

of her bachelorette party tracking her down.

[both laugh]

- She is full of surprises.

- You know, Oliver, you did not

have to take the blame for her mistake with Alice.

- I know, but I didn't want to risk losing her.

- Well, then, we have a bigger problem to deal with.

Apparently, Alice wants to hire her

to be her personal stylist, full-time.

We both know how much Sutton wants to be a stylist.

I mean, we can't hold her back from that.

- That's true.

But there must room in "Scarlet's" budget

for a stylist with 64,000 followers...

and rising.

- Hmm.

- I know it's not

the bachelorette party piece you asked for, but--

- Jane, this piece is wonderful.

- Really? - It's so vulnerable,

and, I mean, this is the kind of initiative I need from you,

to know when there's a bigger story,

when there's a deeper story, to let your voice guide you.

- Thank you. - You have been working very,

very hard lately, Jane,

and I heard you made 30 under 30 writers to watch.

Congratulations. - Thank you.

- And I think maybe it's time

to watch you get your own vertical.

- What? - I mean,

you do want that right?

- Yes, yes. Really?

- Really.

- Thank you. You won't regret it.

- Well, it's gonna be a lot of work.

You're gonna need to assemble your own team of writers

and be able to accept pitches and edit pieces,

all while maintaining your own authentic voice,

which I know you will, because you always do,

like, in your piece

when you talk about how we sometimes lie to ourselves

because we're afraid to discover

what might really be going on.

Well, that made me think of Ian and my own marriage.

And how we haven't really been honest with each other.

- I kissed somebody else.

As soon as it happened, I knew it was a mistake,

and I stopped it, and I regret it every single day.

I hope you believe me.

♪

We need to talk.

- I'm telling you, I have forgiven you.

- But I-- - No more talking.

- Jane, I'm so, so sorry.

It was so easy for you to lie to me.

- It wasn't easy. - Is there anything else

you've lied to me about? - No.

- Facing the truth is really important.

Ultimately, the truth always makes us stronger.

- So RJ really is friends with this senator?

- Yeah, but not just friends.

He donated money to a PAC that supports this guy's campaign.

He wants to get him elected.

I--the owner of a progressive magazine

like "Scarlet" supports this monster?

- I can't believe it. - Charitable contributions,

tax returns, bank records.

How did you get this?

- I can't reveal that.

- Okay, but if you did this illegally,

at very least, you will lose your job.

- Well, you've said that before,

and I'm still standing here, right?

Or maybe I get fired, move to San Fran with you guys.

- It was good.

- Good. - I heard you come in.

It was late. Did you have a good time?

- I did.

Yeah.

However, I, um--

I think I should've been here with you.

- Oh.

- Yeah, I don't think

I have been completely honest with myself about...

the role that I've played in all of this...

and I'm sorry.

- I appreciate you saying that.

But I could've done more too.

I could've been...

honest earlier about how I was feeling.

- [sighs]

Well, maybe we could be honest now.

- Hi. How was your day?

- Uh, Jacqueline loved my piece,

and she gave me my vertical.

- What? That's amazing.

Isn't it?

What's wrong?

I thought that's what you wanted.

- I wrote about how we sometimes lie to ourselves

when things get hard--

little things, big things,

anything to get what we want.

Then I realized something. Um--

I have been lying to myself.

- What do you mean?

- And you have been lying to me.

- Is this about Evan? - No.

It's about your book tour.

That night with that girl...

what really happened?

- I'm so sorry. - No.

I need you to say it.

- I slept with her.

- Oh, my God.

- But it was just the one time.

Jane, I meant everything that I said. I--

It was a stupid, stupid mistake.

I regret it every single day. But I love you so much.

This doesn't have to change anything.

- It changes everything!

You know what the crazy thing is?

I think I've known.

I think I've known this whole time,

and I just--I just-- I didn't want to see it.

'Cause I--all I wanted is to make it, I just--

- Hey, hey, we can still make it.

It happened. It's in the past.

But I love you,

and I'm so sorry.
