- Have you thought about
the very real possibility

that you might see the woman
you rogered in an alleyway

and turned out to be
your new boss's wife?

- Shh-shh-shh-shh.

Let's talk about
your problems instead.

- As someone who's gone
head-to-head with Quinn,

trust me,
there's no winning or losing.

There's just hangovers.

- The next time
you investigate me,

you might wanna
double-check your sources.

- You set me up.

- Camilla would like
to share a photo.

- [gasps]
- It's her boobs. Hit accept.

- I just want
what's best for you.

- If you want
what's best for me,

stay out of my personal life.

[upbeat music]

* *

- You good?
- Yep.

Construction cones,
veer left.

No, no, no, the other left.
- Oh, shit.

- The other left.

- Doesn't the gallery
have people

who can do this for you?

You know, people with a U-Haul
and upper body strength?

- Hey, speak for yourself.

- And have their sweaty palms
manhandle everything

in my art show?
Pass.

- Hey, Mags,
say "my art show" again.

- My art show.
- [hums melody]

- [laughs]
- Oh, crap, another one.

- Oh, my titties--
I mean her titties.

- Whoa, will you stop
saying "titties" please?

- I don't know if I can.
Who's texting you tit--nudes?

- Kamila, the dean's wife.

- I thought you threw her
off the set with Lauren.

- I tried, but then she
invited me to Provincetown.

[phone chimes]
Oh, and these.

I mean, how do I
respond to these?

I don't wanna heart them.

I mean, what am I supposed
to do, do a thumbs up?

I mean, they're good boobs.

I don't want to make her
feel bad about her boobs.

- No, no, you definitely
don't want that.

- Well, that's the problem
with nudes.

You're forced to affirm them.
- Forced?

Wow, I don't recall you
ever complaining.

- Well, I didn't want
to make you feel bad,

but there's only so many
winky tongue out faces

and hot flame emojis
you can reply with.

It's exhausting.
- Exhausting, yeah.

[phone chimes]
- Ugh, here comes the bush.

- Oh!
- Uh-oh.

- Where there's boob,
there's bush.

Just saying.

* *

- Good morning.
- Uh.

- Bad morning?
- Uh, yeah.

Kels woke up
on the wrong side of the bed.

- Uh, it's called a couch--

where you sexiled me
last night.

- I always forget
you two share a room.

That must be fun.
- Well, slumber party's over.

I think it's time
that I actually buy

my own apartment
in New York City.

- Wow, Kels,
that would be amazing.

- Uh, yes, I know.
I've already put feelers out.

Check out this
cutie patootie crib I found.

- Whoa, cute
usually means small.

- Whoa.

Oh, my God,
I love the bathroom tiles.

Wait, where did you find this?

- You know I never reveal
my sources.

Open house is tomorrow.
- I'm in.

- Right.
- Hmm.

- Hey, did Charles
approve the cover art

for "Little Women
in Space" yet?

- No, because I haven't
shown it to him yet.

- Okay, does staying out
of his personal life

mean avoiding him completely?
- Yes.

No, fine,
I'll show it to him now.

I'm--okay.
[grumbles]

* *

- We missed you
at the office.

- Well, I'm sure
the fluorescent lights

are a little dimmer
without me there, Charles.

- [gasps]
I recognize that voice.

Diana, hi!
How are you?

How's Italy?
How's Enzo?

- Liza, one question
at a time please.

- Oh, I miss you scolding me.

- I know I should be back now,

but I am having
a surprisingly good time,

and as difficult as it is
for me to admit this,

I am not ready
to return to work.

It's like the Italians say.

Non tutte le ciambelle
riescono col buco.

Right?

Not all donuts have a hole.

- They don't?

- It means things don't
always turn out as planned.

- Take all the time
that you want, Diana.

- Grazie mille.

I do have 220 vacation days,
so it's time I cash them in.

Ciao, ciao.
- Bye, ciao!

- Ciao.

[soft dramatic music]

* *

I just got some crazy news.

- Crazy work news
or crazy personal news?

Because I don't want
to intrude on the latter.

- One of our authors died.
- Oh, no.

Who?
- Ian Clarke.

He was before your time,
but Diana and I knew him.

He left us years ago
for another publisher,

but we still have some
of his out of print titles.

- Oh, sorry.

- Remember my novel

about the affair that I had
with an older woman

after I graduated from college?
- Of course.

"The Miseducation
of Henry Cane."

- The woman
was Ian Clarke's wife Judith.

- She's Elisabetta?

And Ian is the famous author
Sam Hartwell?

Did you really work
on a lobster boat?

- You remember so many details.

- Oh, remember it?
I loved it.

I wish you'd finish it.

- Yeah, well,
all I can focus on right now

is getting through his wake.

It would be nice
if a few people

from the company
paid their respects.

- Sure, I'll ask Kelsey.

- I haven't seen Judith
since we ended things.

- Hmm, so crazy work
and crazy personal.

- Yeah.

* *

- See you tomorrow.
Hey.

- Hey, I just wanna say--
we so enjoyed

having you to dinner
the other night,

and your Lauren is a hoot.

She can't keep
her hands off you.

- [chuckles]
We're new.

You know how it is.
- I don't, I don't.

Kamila and I never really
had a honeymoon period.

Didn't do much
on the honeymoon either.

Between you and me,
she has trouble finishing.

- Oh, really?
I'm so sorry to hear that.

- I try.

I try,
and she says it's not me,

but it didn't help
that when we first hooked up,

I accidentally stuck
my finger in her...

[whispers]
Butt,

and she screamed, "Wrong hole!"
- Oh, boy.

I hope you told that story
at the wedding.

- Sometimes I think
she should just outsource

if I don't satisfy her.
- Mm.

That's really open of you.

- But then I think
about that woman,

and I wanna kill her.

I think about
the two of 'em together,

I wanna kill 'em both.

[laughs]
- [chuckles]

- By the way, I have to observe
your class this week.

- Oh, really?
- Relax.

Standard protocol for all
new faculty members, I promise.

- Mm, okay, relax, protocol--
you know,

you sound like my gynecologist.
- You are too much.

No wonder the students
love you.

Dinner again soon?

[upbeat music]

* *

- Oh, my gosh.

There's Martin Amis
and Gay Talese.

Ian had famous friends.

- Yeah, this isn't a wake.
This is a publishing orgy.

- [chuckles]
- Oh, hi.

Editor from Macmillan.

You know what?

We should pitch her Dylan Park.
- To publish?

- Yeah, why not?
I mean, Charles turned it down.

It's so inspiring.
Her voice needs to be heard.

- Okay, before we do anything,
I might have another idea.

- Thanks for coming.
This room brings me back.

Almost every literary event
or awards night

would end up here.

Ian and Judith
were generous hosts.

- I heard.

From Diana.

She said that the parties
got pretty wild.

- I'm just happy
there's not an open casket.

- Well, there's an open bar.
- Ooh, BRB.

- Be right back.
- Ah.

That's Judith over there.

- Whoa, she is stunning.
- You know how to do it.

- And not how you described
Elisabetta in your book.

- Artistic license.

It's there, the Hamptons house.

She'd raise that flag
whenever Ian was away

to let me know
that the coast was clear.

I should go pay my respects.

- Well, two words of advice--
half-mast.

- Liza, it's the man's
memorial service.

[chuckles]

- Charles.
- Judith.

- Thank you for coming.

Wonderful to see you.
- You too.

I wish it was
under better circumstances.

- Ian always regretted
leaving Empirical, you know.

- We were sad to lose him.
Such a brilliant writer.

- He was always
very fond of you.

We both were.

May I show you something
in private?

- Uh, yeah, of course.

- You're looking well, Charles.

But then, you always were
so handsome.

- Huh.

- Remember those summers
in the Hamptons?

They were fun, weren't they?

- Yes, from what little
I remember.

- Fun, fun, fun, fun, fun.

[laughs]

Ian's life reduced
to these boxes

and that urn
in the living room.

Hmm.

- "Tides That Bind."
God, "Route 27."

Such a talent.

- A fine talent.

whose books
haven't been published

in 15 years.

I mean, I'm devastated
to lose Ian,

but this is the real tragedy.

He left our son Topher

in charge
of his literary estate

to give him a sense of purpose.

Topher has some ideas.
Will you meet with him?

* *

After all
our history together...

* *

You owe us that.

* *

- Please tell me
you two didn't just--

Are you okay?

You look like
you've seen a ghost.

- I did kind of.

Ian Clarke just BRB'd me.

- That's not really
how you say it.

- My past is coming back
to haunt me.

* *

- Oh.
- Yeah.

[upbeat music]

- "Windward"
is Dad's best seller,

but I think "Route 27"
is his best writing.

I mean, it's my favorite
at least.

- Great minds.
Mine too.

- Then let's reissue it.

- We usually
only reissue authors

who were recipients
of Bookers, Pulitzers.

- Then what if
we had authors guest write

under Dad's name?

It's been lucrative

for Stiegg Larsson
and Michael Crichton's estates.

- So is your idea
to reissue his books

or ghost write sequels to them?
- Why not both?

- Do you have
any authors in mind?

- Sitting right
in front of you.

- You're a writer.
- Well, no.

But I could splice some

of Dad's unfinished
manuscripts together.

I mean, how hard can it be?

- Well, Topher, you have
given us much to think about.

- Thank you for your time.
Appreciate it.

- Thanks for being here.

I appreciate you humoring that.

- I'll scan through the books
he pitched to reissue,

see how they've aged.
- I'll do the same.

And, Liza...

Thanks.

- You got it.

* *

- So this is when
I was a baby artist,

and I painted what I knew
and who I loved.

[knocks]

- Is now a good time
to observe?

- Yeah, come on in, Dean, sure.

I'm just showing
some of my old work.

Care to take a trip
down memory lane?

- Ooh, as long
as the lane doesn't lead

to Limelight or the Tunnel.

Those memories
are best left buried.

- [chuckles]

So this is a show that I did
about trans women

on the Lower East Side.
It's oil on canvas.

- Professor.
- Yes.

- I found an old flier
for that show online.

Was it called, "Gypsies,
Trannies, and Thieves?"

[students grumble]

- Okay, people, context.
Context is important here.

Maggie was breaking new ground
at the time.

- Thank you, Dean.

I mean, obviously, those terms
are not politically correct,

but art's a reflection
of when it's made, all right?

So let's move on.
Thank you, Dean.

[phone chimes]
All right.

[students chuckle]

- Shit.

- Maggie, I think Lauren
is trying to--

- No, no, no, no, no,
how do you make this stop?

- Ooh!
- Oh.

[dramatic music]

* *

- Is that--
is that my bathroom?

[phone chimes]

[students laugh]

- Uh, Professor,
what do you call that one?

- That's called my wife.
- Ooh.

- Uh, excuse me.
Hey, Cass.

Cass, listen, wait, wait, stop.

Look, I'm so sorry, okay?
- For what?

Your problematic show
about trans women

that I was forced to defend

or that the whole class
saw my wife's breasts?

- The second one.

- Maybe you're
not a good fit here after all.

- Wait, what?
No, no, no, I am.

Like, wait, I can explain.

Kamila was texting me her,
you know,

because we're doing
a sculpture for you

of her bust...
[chuckles]

And it was supposed to be
a surprise

for your anniversary.
- That was last month.

- Which makes it even more
of a surprise, right?

- Fine.
Fine.

Oh, this has been
very distressing,

but it's also
not grounds to fire you,

so let's just forget it
and move on.

- So we're good?
- Of course.

Of course we are.
- Thank you.

Thank you 'cause
I really love this job,

and you are gonna really love
that sculpture.

- Can't wait.
- Huh?

[soft dramatic music]

* *

* *

[knocks]

- Am I interrupting?

- I have never read
so many descriptions

of tides and wind.

- Ian wrote
mostly in the Hamptons.

Definitely not as literary
as I remember.

I guess I hadn't read
as much back then.

- And his female characters,
yikes.

- One-dimensional, huh?

Didn't spend
a lot of time with women,

especially his wife.
- [sighs]

- We can't reissue these.

My manuscript.

You're still stuck on this.

- I can't get it
out of my head.

- I wonder how many times
I described tides and wind?

- Hmm.

- God, Judith said
"You owe us that."

Maybe it's my fault
that Ian left Empirical.

- You think he knew
about your affair?

- He must have.

- Well, raising that flag
was bold.

- Yeah, saluting it was worse.

Now he's guilting me
from the grave.

I shouldn't have gone
to that wake.

I'm too close to all this.

- Leave it to me.

I'll take Topher
out for drinks.

I'll tell him we're passing.
- No, no, no, no.

That's not fair.
You've done enough.

I can handle this.

- Then I'll go with you.

[upbeat music]

* *

- * We all wanna
go somewhere *

* Where everybody
knows your name *

* *

- Uh, this is gorgeous.

And a doorman and an elevator?

I can't believe
I can afford this.

- Uh-huh, yeah,
surprisingly affordable.

- Oh--wait, why is there
a cameraperson here?

"Casting
for real-estate TV show."

Are you out of your mind?

- You won't believe the perks,
and this will be

really good for your brand.
- My brand?

- Yes, young,
hot editor and chief

of a publishing house inspiring
other young, hot women

to buy luxe apartments
and fill them with your books?

It's aspirational.
- No.

I am not a reality TV girl.

- Kelsey, they'll wave
the 6% broker's fee,

throw in free interior design,
and furnish it, all right?

This is a deal and a steal.
Look at this view.

Look.

And I'm sorry,
check out the broker

you'll be working with.

Much yummier
than those Property Brothers

who look like
the unholy lovechild

of Ben Affleck and Borat.

- [chuckles]
All right.

No commission
and free furniture?

- Mm-hmm.
- Really?

- If they choose you.

- Hey, Kelsey Peters.
Hey, Brett Watkins.

I read your application.
- My application?

- Mm-hmm, I took care
of that for you.

Hi, Brett.
- Seriously?

Are you actually a realtor
or do you just play one on TV?

- Oh, I guess
you've never seen the show

or you'd know
that I'm actually one

of the top brokers in the city.
- He's a real-tor.

- [chuckles]
Exactly.

And the reality is that,
if you choose to work with me,

which I hope you do,
I promise to find you

the apartment of your dreams.

- Uh, are you making my girl
an offer to be on your show?

- Yeah, I think I just did.
- [laughs]

- This is nuts, but okay.
- Yes!

- Great, great,
I've already got

three amazing apartments
to show you tomorrow.

We're gonna have fun.

I'll have my producers
send you the paperwork.

- No, no, no, to me.

- What about this apartment?
I really like this one.

- Oh, yeah, no,
this one isn't for sale.

It's just a set.
- Oh.

* *

- As much as
we respect Ian's books,

we've decided
not to reissue them.

- Really?
Why not?

- Several reasons--

for one, we feel
his female characters

lack substance, a voice.

- Well, Hemingway
gets reissued all the time,

and he's a misogynist.

- That's
a common misconception.

- Lady Brett Ashley
from "The Sun Also Rises"

is a total heroine--
flawed but complex.

- But this blows.

I don't get my inheritance
until I'm 30,

and my dad's back catalog
is all he left me until then.

- Well, you must almost be 30.
When were you born?

- '95.

- Uh, what month?
- April.

Why, you gonna bake me a cake?

- No, I just haven't seen
your mother--

your family since around then.

Um...you're a lot taller

than your dad, aren't you?

- Yeah, I'm pretty much taller
than the rest of my family.

Don't look
like my dad's side either.

[plucky music]

- Oh.

Why do you think that might be?

- Well, if you knew
my mom back then,

you would've heard a rumor
that she slept

with some lobster boat townie.
She was pretty wild.

[clears throat]

- Uh...your mother--

um, I find that
hard to believe.

She's such
an old-fashioned woman.

- The only thing
old-fashioned about my mom

is how much
she likes to drink 'em.

* *

Can I ask you something?

* *

- Shoot.

- Are we here to talk
about my mom's infidelity

or are we trying to figure out
a way to make some cash

on my dad's estate?

- Reissuing books
is an expensive proposition,

and it doesn't
always guarantee-

- Okay, yeah, I got it.
The books are worthless.

Thank you for your time,
Mr. Brooks

and...uh...whatever
you said your name was.

- That's why Ian
left Empirical.

God, I cannot believe that
I'm only finding this out now,

but I kept away
from Judith and her family--

- Are you sure
that it was the summer of '94

when Judith,
you know, climbed the pole--

I mean raised the flag.
- Yeah, definitely.

Topher's age lines up,

and...you heard her.

She had an affair

with a deck hand
on a lobster boat.

- But it was a rumor.

- I'm the rumor, Liza.

I'm his father.

Don't you think
he looks like me?

- A little.
- Ugh.

How am I going
to explain this to...

- Quinn?

- My girls.

I cannot believe that Judith
kept this from me.

- You were 20 years old.
What do you expect?

- I'm gonna go
see Judith tomorrow.

Talk about life
throwing you curveballs.

- Whatever happens,
it'll be fine, Charles, really.

[upbeat music]

- Yeah, yeah, thanks.

- Of course.

- Good night.

* *

[upbeat music]

- * Yes, I've been dancing,
yeah, yeah, yeah *

- Okay, make sure
you keep smiling and be nice

so you don't get
the villain edit, okay?

- Wait, the what?

- People are gonna
wanna hate you

'cause you're so pretty,

so you've gotta convince them
that you're smart.

- Uh, I am smart.
- I'm sorry.

Is it too late
to dye her hair brown?

It's just--it's so threatening.

Is that Dove dark chocolate?
- Mm-hmm.

- Ah.

- Lauren, get me some too.
- Uh, duh.

- Kelsey, how you feeling?
- [sighs]

A little nervous.

- That is perfectly natural,
but you are gonna be great.

Huh, you ready
to find your new home?

- Let's do this.

Okay.
Thank you.

- Check out this room.

This could be
a great reading area.

I mean, as editor and chief
of Empirical,

a home office is essential.

- I'd say
it's nonnegotiable, Brett.

[chuckles]

I would need to add a bookcase.

- A woman who knows
what she wants.

It's important when
you're running a business.

Look, you publish fairy tales,
right?

So why couldn't this be yours,
Princess Kelsey?

The castle with a view,
and from up here,

you could spot
any dragon-slaying knights.

- It's spectacular.

But this princess
doesn't need any rescuing.

- I like your attitude.

One thing
I always tell my clients

who are fresh off a breakup

is living well
is the best revenge.

- [chuckles]
True.

- Now wait
till you see this closet.

Come on.
- Ooh.

* *

- Topher told me
you're not reissuing

Ian's books even though
you still own the copyright,

so...what is this about?

- Is he my son?

- Excuse me?

- Am I Topher's father?

- Did he say that?

- He said there were rumors
you had an affair

with a deckhand
on a lobster boat.

- [laughs]

And you think that was you?

- It was me.
It was a very memorable summer.

You would raise the flag--

- I raised the flag
over many summers.

Let's see.

There was Lewis the pool boy,

Puck what's his face,
the neighbor's kid

with the bacne,
and then it was Jerry

or maybe it was Terry.
I don't know.

Who cares?

It was a lot of summers

and a lot
of beautiful, young men

all blurred together.

I mean, I drank
pretty heavily back then.

Ah, and Ian knew
about most of them,

and he made me do
a paternity test on the kids.

They're all his.

I can't believe that Topher

is going around
saying otherwise.

I know he didn't like
his father very much.

I guess he takes after me.

But I'm glad that the summer
was meaningful for you.

- It was.

At least I thought it was.

Topher can have the copyright
to Ian's books,

then he can shop them around
for reissue

or whatever he wants.

[tender music]

I should go.
- Oh, well, now wait.

You could--you could stay
and jog my memory.

I mean, I'm sure that we've
learned a few new tricks

over the years, you know?

- It was nice
to see you, Judith.

- * About your family *

* Did they like me
more than you? *

* Couldn't say
that I don't blame them *

* Didn't call, you never did *

* *

- What are you doing here?

- Just thought you might
need a friend right now.

- * Welcome to
my point of view *

[soft pop music]

- * I'm a broken child,
honest son *

* *

* I know where you've been *

* And everything you've done *

- Look, I know I said
I wasn't going to get involved

in your personal life,
and I promise to be better

at sticking
to that in the future.

- But?

- Is Topher--

- No, he's not my son.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

Little embarrassed
that my memory

of that Hampton summer
was so off.

- Hmm.

- Meant nothing to her.

- But it meant
something to you.

What you're feeling right now,
you should use

to finish your book.

We have to publish

"The Miseducation
of Henry Cane."

- If I do, it's going to take
a talented editor

to smooth off the rough edges.

- I have someone in mind.

- Could they also help me
rewrite the past?

- Pretty sure they'd tell you
to accept the past.

Embrace the present
and keep moving forward.

- Is that what we're doing,
moving forward?

[tender music]

- What does this look like?

Right, left, right, left,
moving forward

one step at a time, easy-peasy.

I could even move backwards.
Watch this.

* *

- [chuckles]
So many tricks.

- You better believe it.

- * If you could take me *

* If you could
save me from this *

* If you could take me *

* I would follow you *

- Next time on "Younger"...

- Liza, when are you gonna
realize you can trust me?

[upbeat music]

- I will try to hate her
a little for you,

but after tonight, okay?

- Maggie, I'm your ally here,

but if the students
turn on you...

- Look at these tweets!
I've read nicer things about me

on the wall of the men's room
in high school.

- Lauren, this is your fault.

You said this was gonna
be good for my brand.

- It's not that bad, right?
Right, guys?

- I wish
I understood you better.

- Don't worry.
I'm still me.
