[Bev] He fell asleep
while I was sucking him off.

At first I thought he was dying,
but now I get it.

We've dwindled.

And by "dwindled,"
I mean Tom's dick is under lock and key.

You think he's cheating?

If Tom were fucking someone else,
he'd be a lot more upbeat.

I promise.

-It just sounds like he's really unhappy.
-I hope so.

Oh, yeah. They're over the moon
when they're banging someone new.

This has probably reached its natural end.

Stop that!

Well, ten years is a success.

If you're talking about
keeping a rabbit alive.

It's not over.

Just to be safe,
I booked in for some lipo.

"To be safe?"

Will you pick me up on Thursday
at the usual place?

Yeah. Blacked-out windows, sick bag.

Count on me
to honor my vow as your best friend

to conceal surgery from your husband.

I'll take you for your first tit lift
once the baby's born.

Oh, about that...

-I've decided to keep Evan around.
-Great!

-Until I'm showing. [sighs]
-Don't.

With Shep's baby.

Christ.

Shep as the father
just makes the most practical sense.

And you think Evan
will happily agree to this, will he?

You think it's practical to try for a baby
with your greatest enemy?

Yes. You don't hate them before the baby's
born. You hate them after anyway.

It's a business transaction.

Poor, hot Evan.

Evan will be fine.

He would've lost interest
at some point anyway. They all do.

We might as well enjoy men
as temporary figures

and focus on what is best
for our children.

[woman] I thought that what was best
for my child

was a stint at an arts college
in Switzerland.

But he ran off with a German tranny
from the music program.

And now he spins records on poppers.

Well, we are very sorry to hear
that your son is a DJ, Maureen,

but we don't say "tranny," babe.

Would you girls like to hear his music?

-No, we can't--
-Absolutely not.

♪ At the start, yeah, it was fun ♪

♪ We were just a bit too young ♪

♪ Thought you were cool ♪

[music continues on radio]

-You don't have to wait.
-I know. It's my pleasure.

Okay. Well, he just wants to talk
about some Olive stuff.

-I'll be as quick as I can.
-No rush. I've got an audio book.

Okay. [laughs]

[exhales]

Hey.

[Shep] Take a seat, please.

Don't touch anything.

-[he slurps]
-[she groans]

For my own legal protection, I've been
advised to record this conversation.

Advised by whom? A talking serpent?

You're very manipulative and it's
the best way to protect my assets.

[laughs] Oh, yeah, you got me.

This whole "let's have another baby" thing

isn't because Olive needs a sibling and I
desperately want my perineum re-torn.

It's so I can trick you
out of half your nothing.

-I've been advised--
-In a fucking fever dream.

[he inhales]

-[recorder clicks]
-Tuesday evening, legacy agreement,

meeting one. Subjects on the agenda:

Name, religion, conception style,
stud fee, hypnobirth--

Hypnobirth?
You weren't even at Olive's birth.

-You went to motocross in Bucharest.
-And whose fault was that?

Mine? Obama's? Amazon's?
One of your top three enemies.

Petition A. If it's a boy,
he is to be called Ethos.

You're not naming the baby. Not after
your suggestions for Olive's name.

You wouldn't understand,
'cause you're not an artist.

I am literally an artist,
and I'm not paying a stud fee

just so you can spend it
on ammunition and strippers.

Petition B. Stud fee.

-Ten grand.
-Shep!

I never wanted kids in the first place.
I love the one we've got,

-but she's cost me a lot.
-Cost a lot of what?

Precious hours you could've
spent smoking hash on a dinghy?

-Cannabis is a tool.
-[Katherine] You're a tool.

What is it even for?

It's for the grief counseling I'll need
after seeing your tired old gash again.

I'm a pop star.
I'm used to much higher quality.

Yeah? Well, while you've been
living down here like Julian Assange,

there have been advances in medicine,
so I can pay a doctor

and he can make a baby in a dish.

I know. [exhales slowly]

-But we're fucking.
-We're fucking not!

-You can fuck me like you hate me.
-I do hate you.

Likewise. Think about it.

A grudge-fuck might
let some steam off those feelings

and ultimately make us better parents.

Aw, is that Gina Ford?

Petition C.
The baby is to be conceived naturally.

No! No. I've got a perfectly qualified
reproductive endocrinologist--

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Let me stop you there.

No fucking way.
I do not trust western medicine.

Doctors are a bunch of sick freaks
playing god with pseudo-science.

That's an absolute deal-breaker.

So you'd rather fuck me?

You'd really rather fuck me?

[gags] Couldn't fuck you, no.

But... [sighs]

I might be able to fuck the version of you
that existed before I hated you.

[scoffs] Right.

Why are men so obsessed
with banging 20-year-olds?

The only way this is gonna work
is role play.

I have decided that this baby will be made

under the exact same conditions
that Olive was made.

I'll be outside the stage door of the gig,

you stagger into the alley
like the pathetic, skank groupie you were.

Oh, yeah, okay, cool.

And then you abandon me over and over

when I'm poor and scared
and alone in a foreign country

and I lean on Bev
and start a business to feed your child

and make your daughter think
you're not the biggest cunt I've ever met.

You're still annoyed about that?

[inhales]

Do you know what?

I don't need this.

I'm out.

Yeah, you're bluffin'.

These are my requirements, kid,
and I ain't backing down.

Think it over. I'll have a hard copy
biked to your house.

You don't have a bike! You don't have
a printer, Wolf of Wall Street.

You're an absolute crazy person.

[Shep] Er, Katherine!

Einstein was a madman!

[dramatic music plays]

-Hey.
-How'd it go?

[sighs] Fine. It was fine.

[breathes deeply]

Did I ever tell you that when Olive was
born, he wanted to call her Garfield?

-[laughs] No.
-[Katherine laughs] Yeah.

I mean, I've got a patient
called Hannibal, but Garfield is worse.

-Will you take me for a drink?
-What about the babysitter?

I'll keep her late. I just really wanna go
for a drink with you.

Sure, babe.

[chuckles]

Hi, Millie. It's nice to see you two girls
finally getting along.

-Do you have any Coke?
-No!

We can't have fizzy drinks.
They'll ruin our teeth.

[Olive] What would Dr. Evan say?

Since you're being so kind to Olive,
I'll make an exception.

There's Coke in the fridge.

[Millie] Hmm.

But she didn't even say please
or thank you.

She grunted.

You've seen her parents.

Her parents have seen all of you
in those Polaroids.

How much longer
will this enforced play-date continue?

Like an hour? Just take her to your room
and play ponies.

You mean our room.

No. Our room is my room.
Your room is your room.

The room where all your toys are.

Oh, God, my toys!

You think you've got one over
on that child's mother, don't you?

At what personal expense?

Now, you've sent naked pictures
of yourself to her husband,

so the two of them,
plus Olive's headmaster,

have seen you with your kit off.

And, on top of that, you're looking after
her shit kid for free.

Only you could see that as a win.

I just think Olive needs more friends
her own age.

Yeah. It's almost like you shouldn't
be equals with a nine-year-old,

acting like you're sisters, sharing a bed.

Lots of people share a bed
with their kids.

Lots of Michael Jackson.
Literally no one else.

Well, I still think she should move out
at her own pace.

Evan's spending the night

and even he agrees it's best
for him to stay in her empty room.

Your boyfriend is not staying
in a little girl's bedroom?

-Why not?
-You can't keep a man

in a chihuahua-filled pink playhouse,
sleeping with dolls,

and still expect him to fuck you.

Oh, I expect him to not fuck me.

I'm off the pill,
so I'm avoiding sex with him anyway.

Well, if the fairy lights
don't castrate him,

being stared out all night
by one of your little pocket dogs will.

[dog whimpers]

[girl giggles]

[giggles]

I haven't shared my best glitter markers

for you to be inappropriate
with them, Millie.

I bet you've never even seen a willy.

I have.

I know men have them
for weeing off the side of boats.

Well, have you ever
walked in on your parents?

Yes, I walk in on my mum all the time.

OMG!

With your dad?

With all sorts of people.
Sometimes with my dad.

Sometimes with her friend Bev.
Mostly on her own.

Your mum is a tart.

I beg your pardon!

She really needs
to get a lock on her door.

Like my parents did
after I walked in on them having sex.

Having sex?

Olive...

don't you know where babies come from?

Of course I do. When a mummy wants a baby,
the doctor tells her how old her eggs are

and she picks blood from a book
to hatch one.

I'm going to need some more pens.

Let's see... [whispers]

[Evan] Open up.

Hmm, your gums are bleeding.

That's how I can tell
you haven't been doing it regularly.

I'm telling you, man...

girls, they don't like bad breath, bro.

It's all right. You've got time.
It took me ages to find the one.

Oh, congratulations, brother.

Yeah. I feel like I'm finally
making some headway with her.

Gonna start spending the night.

She's just got
a lot of challenging history, you know?

Her kid's dad is complicated.

Really put her through some hell
at one point. Trust issues, but...

I'll show her she can count on me.

I'll make a fun dad, hey, Tyler?

About a year ago,
Leo told me I should walk away.

What was it you said?

That being with this woman
was like sitting at a slot machine,

putting coins in, waiting for a windfall.

A real man sticks around, Tyler.

[Leo] And you know the casino always wins,

but you can't leave,
because, every once in a while,

the game chucks you back a few coins.

All right, Leo. It's--

You think, "If I give up now, the next guy
who sits down is gonna hit the jackpot

and I will have wasted all this money."

The lesson, Tyler, is this.
A single mother is never damaged goods.

[Tyler spits]

I'm gay.

Oh, cool.

Ah... Awesome.

Hey, thanks for sharing. That's great.

-Fist bump? Well done, man.
-No.

All right. Yeah, you... Totally... Mm-hmm.

[Olive] What time did you get home
last night?

Not too late.

I went and ran some errands with Dr. Evan
and then we had a drink. Maybe 11.

Eleven o'clock?

Who stays out until eleven o'clock
when they've got patients in the morning?

And you trust this man with my teeth?

What has been your problem all morning?

I'm not the one who's got a problem.

-Millie said--
-[girl] Olive!

Never mind.

[sighs]

-Hey, Jane.
-Doing the school run with a mug of tea?

[laughs] Look, Brian,
she's got a mug of tea.

A mug from home.

It's pretty wild, yeah.

I was over there, at home, drinking tea
and now I'm still drinking it.

Oh, you're such a free spirit. [laughs]

Look at us, having a laugh.
This is what forgiveness is all about.

Hmm. Yeah.

Katherine, um,
as a sort of a bonding exercise,

I'm... I'm gonna confide in you now.

Ever since I got sober,

I make a personal inventory
every time I've been wrong

and I promptly make amends for it.

Oh.

Well, I accept your apology.

Oh, um...

Yeah, the photo... I mean...

-Let's just draw a line under it. [laughs]
-Okay.

Millie just can't stop talking about
what a wonderful time she had with Olive.

-Oh, great.
-A mug of tea from home?

[sarcastically] Yeah. It's an inside mug,
but you're seeing it outside. I know.

[Jane laughs]

Okay. Well, I really gotta go.

Let's get the girls together again soon
then.

[woman] Tea from home!

Have you ever had sex with my dad?

With what?

You lied. Millie told me
where babies come from, and you lied.

No. Babies can come from the fertility
clinic. That's a way to make babies.

But the doctor doesn't use blood.
He'd be using semen.

Se... Semen can have blood in it,

like if a man gets kicked in the nuts
or has an infection.

And did you and Dad go
to the fertility clinic to have me or...

We... went to a concert...

and you don't need to know the rest.

You had sex with my dad at a concert?

That's so gross, Mum! That's so gross.

It's so gross! I was really drunk.

Why would Millie tell you that?

It's not Millie's fault
that you're disgusting!

This is why I didn't tell you about sex.
I knew I'd lose your respect.

Mum, no, you're lying.
Say that you're lying!

I've done a lot of things
I'm really ashamed of, but I'm better now.

-You embarrassed me in front of her.
-Well, she--

-I lied to you to protect you.
-[Olive] Millie had to tell me.

-Millie did not have to--
-I can't trust you anymore.

I knew I shouldn't let Millie
in the house.

You know what? You're a tart!

-No! Wha--
-Hey, whoa, what's going on?

-What are you doing here?
-You didn't tell her I was sleeping over?

-[Katherine sighs]
-So you can have sex again?

-Uhh...
-Olive!

Dr. Evan's just gonna start
spending the night as a test.

It's not a big deal.

I live here, too.
I should've been consulted.

This is so you can have sex.

You can't talk to your mother like that.

You're not my dad.

That was fast.

And you're not my mother.

I don't know when you started thinking
you were the boss,

but you need to go to your room.

You're going to have a new family
with a dentist and forget about me.

Olive.

I'm going to our room
and you will be sleeping there with me.

[sighs] She's not normally like this.
She made a new friend.

[Olive] And you can tell that clown
that I am not brushing my teeth tonight.

-[door slams]
-She doesn't mean that. [chuckles]

[she sighs]

Hey, I, um...

I brought over a few things to show you.

You brought me a baby picture of yourself
to show me?

I noticed you keep a lot of them around.

Of Olive.

[chuckles] It's pretty cute.

Yeah, I'm amazed
they even got one of me awake.

You know, I was always just sleeping
and laughing,

not being sick at all.
That's my first day at school.

-[Katherine] Hmm.
-Oh, what's this? Oh! [chuckles]

Is that my report card?
[scoffs] What's it doing in there?

[he clears his throat]

"Evan makes friends easily

and is a natural leader in the classroom."
Huh.

Wow.

You know, my mum was the only one in her
friendship circle that didn't need Valium.

I should go check on Olive.
I don't want her going to sleep angry.

-Sure you don't mind sleeping in her room?
-Of course.

I just want you two girls
to be comfortable.

[sighs]

[dog whimpers]

Me holding my friend's kid.

-[dog whines and pants]
-[quietly] I'll just leave it there.

[dog whimpers]

[Evan groans]

[sighs]

-[breathes deeply]
-[door opens]

You cleaned the kitchen.

[Evan sighs] It's true.

I had a wild first night. [chuckles]

-How's Olive?
-Unrepentant and asleep.

[raunchy music plays]

[Evan groans]

-Mmm, I can't.
-[music stops]

Um...

I... I'm on my period.

I thought you said before
real gangsters run red lights?

I was kidding.

Oh, seriously, I don't mind.

Especially since you've had it
for, like, three weeks?

Well, I just came in here
to make out a bit and....

suck you off?

Okay.

[music resumes]

[breathes deeply]

-[music stops]
-[groans]

Whatever, let's just have sex.
My jaw really hurts.

Okay.

[music resumes]

-[music stops]
-Actually, no, wait, stop. Um...

I'm just really distracted.
I'm worried about Bev's surgery tomorrow.

-[groans] Can we just--
-Maybe you could just finish on me?

[he sighs]

-Um...
-Please. I'm really tired.

[sighs] Okay.

[sighs]

[she inhales, then sighs]

So, like,
tomorrow's just this routine procedure

where they inject tumescent fluid
into the fat cells to break them apart,

then they suck them out
and then put them back,

-just wherever you need volume.
-Yeah.

Last time Bev did it,
they got a liter and a half.

That's crazy. She's thin already.

-Hey, can we just--
-Bev's thin because she gets lipo.

Oh, we can't tell Tom, but she never said
I had to keep it from you.

Maybe you could pick us up?
Then we wouldn't have to take a cab back.

Yeah, I, um...

I've gotta fit a crown after lunch,

but, uh, it's pretty important
in terms of... [sighs]

...uh, restoring the... [sighs]

...function.

I'd feel bad if I moved it, so...

I could come after.

Or you could come now.

[laughs nervously]

Here.

Oh, my God, you cleaned up in here, too?

[Katherine] Wow.

You are, like, so good looking
and funny and nice.

You're a real catch.

-Maybe we should have sex.
-[he gasps]

[he sighs]

[both sigh]

Good night.

-What?
-I'm going to my room.

[door opens]

Put Daddy on again, please,
and I'll speak to you after dinner.

What's going on?

-Well, talk to him, Tom.
-[cork pops]

Find out who's teaching him
words like "dirty protest."

All right, I'll see you tonight.

[coughs]

Love you.

Hey. How are you feeling?

A bit of pain in my chest. [coughs]

It's from the breathing tube.
It's always the worst of it.

Oh, my God, get this. Jane is in AA.

[Bev splutters]

-There goes the second A.
-[Katherine] I saw her with Brian

and the rat child,
and she apologized to me.

How funny would it be
if she started drinking again?

[chokes and splutters]

[Bev] Oh, shit. [coughs]

[gasps and coughs]

[voice cracks] Shit.
I feel like I'm gonna die.

That's not funny, you cunt.

[chokes]

-[machines beep]
-Bollocks. [gasps]

[Bev] I can't breathe.

My boys. [choking]

Calling "Where's Mum?"

[Bev chokes]

[nurse 1] Are you okay? Okay, all right.

-[nurse 2] Can we have some help in here?
-[nurse 1] Breathe.

-I need you to wait outside, please.
-No. Bev?

-Breathe!
-[machines beep]

-I need you to wait outside.
-I didn't mean it.

-[Bev chokes]
-Bev?

-[machines beep]
-Hey, what's going on?

[Bev chokes]

I called her a cunt.

[mournful music plays]

What's an embolism?

Well, when you're having
a routine fat transfer,

sometimes they put it back too deep and
it forms a clot that travels to the lungs.

That's why, when you're older,
it's so important

that you only choose
the best plastic surgeon.

Why didn't Auntie Bev
have the best doctor?

She did,
but he was abusing amphetamines.

Oh.

How many days are you going to be
dressing like a witch for?

For as long as I'm in mourning.

But, Mummy...

Bev's still alive.

Yeah, Bev pulled through, luckily,

but my mind went straight to the grief
and then immediately to the outfit.

Who would look after me if you died?

Well, I guess your dad
would have to give it his best shot.

And... And would Daddy
look after our baby, too?

No, not unless he was the baby's dad.

I think you'd better try extra hard
to stay alive.

Maybe leave all your fat where it is.

Aww, that's not realistic, is it, honey?

[Shep] Ooh la la!

Bonjour, Celine Dion. Who died?

-Daddy!
-[he laughs]

Aunt Bev almost died, Daddy.

Thanks for saying I'm like Celine Dion.

What are amphetamines, Dad?

[whispers] They're incredible.
What happened to Bev?

She had an operation.

So Mum got her black clothes
out of the cellar, because she's sad.

-[bell rings]
-I've got to go.

[sighs sadly]

[mouths] Thank you.

-Bev didn't die.
-She died for a minute.

-Imagine needing attention that bad.
-Hey,

I am fucking sad.

-If I die--
-Nobody died.

If I died...

before you, I mean,
which would be so unfair,

considering you're a junkie
who's had syphilis at least twice--

Beat syphilis twice. Go on.

I would want my children to stay together.

You think I'm gonna keep my favorite
and sell the other one?

Ideally, you'll be dismembered
in a boating accident

and the children and I will be free
to get on with our lives.

[sighs] In any case, you've got a deal.

To secure my children's future together,
I will agree to the terms of the...

[mockingly] ...legacy agreement.

[sniffs]

The name?

The ten grand?

The...

natural conception?

-[sighs] Assuming your dick still works.
-Oh, my dick works.

That's one of you with a job then.

Fuck you, motherfucker.
I wish I trusted doctors.

This is gonna be
the greatest sacrifice of my life.

You think?
