Good morning, followers.

Gossip Girl here.

Or should I say "still here"?

You thought I was a person,

but I never said I was.

I'm a revolution.

And today's act of rebellion?

We know it isn't nice
to reveal a lady's age,

but secret sources tell
us Zoya Lott is 15 today.

Happy Birthday, Z!

May you deserve whatever you get.

In New York, there are only two ways

to celebrate a birthday.

You either go big, or you don't exist.

But not to fear.

If you're leaving a voicemail...

...you obviously do not know me.

Something tells us...

...this Z-Day will live in infamy.

Because if it doesn't, then
y'all ain't doing it right.

Suit up, sweeties...

and let's see who'll be
the last manqué standing.

Ever wake up in the morning

and feel like something needs to change?

It can be pretty exhausting,
looking in the mirror each day

and promising yourself,

“Today I'm gonna look the
best I've ever looked.”

What if who I am when I
wake up is me at my best?

Starting here, starting
now, I'm going clean.

Free. Effortlessly me.

I encourage you to try the same.

God! "Effortlessly me"? What is this?

The new girl's Pantene ad?

Au naturel is stage four terminal.

I almost can't look.

You can needlepoint her pores!

- Oh, Jesus.
- Is everything ready for today?

Not a moment too soon.

As soon as Jules is back
on top, we'll be too.

Gotta say, it's nice to
see you in the daytime.

And I gotta say, it's nice to see...

...where you really live.

- Are we expecting guests?
- Good morning, Julie!

- Good Morning, Lola.
- I saw your story.

Filter-free is a new look
on you, and I like it.

I have this great nude
foundation from Dior.

No one would ever know you were wearing,

if you wanted to go that route.

Thanks, but I think
that kind of contradicts

the whole "transparency" thing.

Right, right.

I can't believe they send
you all this free stuff.

I hope you don't mind. I
deep-dived your Insta last night.

- Did you?
- Well, I was so curious

how you got so famous.

I'm trying to do the same
thing with my music, and...

Anyway,

I totally forgot you were the kid

who interviewed all those rock stars.

You were so cute!

I've gotta go. Um. Wish I
wasn't meeting my friends

- at Locanda Verde before school.
- Oh, no!

- Your dad didn't say.
- Well, who can keep track?

I'll take one for the road.

Is this pumpkin?

Seasonally appropriate.

Hey.

Is this okay? If it's
too weird, I can...

Go back to hiding her
in your secret apartment

like Josef Fritzl?

- Point taken.
- We promised we'd try honesty.

She clearly makes you happy.

Hey, I'm thinking of you today.

I'm thinking of you too.

Hey, Z, I can't find my briefcase.

Can you check the table?

Hold up, okay?

I know the rule.

We don't celebrate until tomorrow.

But that doesn't mean we
have to completely ignore...

That's exactly what it means!

Today is her day. Not mine.

Well, this is yours.
Sadelle's, your favorite.

Had to wait in line and
everything, like a tourist.

Something tells me
you didn't make a wish.

Well, how's this?

I wish that today would
go completely unnoticed,

so that I didn't have
to, yet again, be the girl

whose immunocompromised
mom died having her.

But Gossip Girl already ruined that.

How sweet. People wanna
wish you a happy birthday.

There are bigger things
going on in the world.

Like, repost some Sonya Renee Taylor

instead of sending me birthday memes?

I don't even know Angelicah84,
or whatever a "Minka Kelly" is.

- She's...
- Look, there's only one person

to blame for this. Julien.

I'm sure your sister
didn't send your birthday

in to Gossip Girl. Besides,
people know. Big deal.

It had to be Julien.

Who else would know it was my birthday?

Let me guess. That's something bad too?

Bad stuff always happens on my birthday.

Remember that sleepover,

when Bella didn't know
that she had bed bugs?

This is just a reminder to sign up

for trick-or-treaters on Halloween.

Today is a good day.
This day brought me you.

Best thing that ever happened to me.

Too bad it took the
worst thing to do it.

Z...

Here's hoping for no
surprises, no celebrations,

just a normal day.

- Shit, dude. Overkill much?
- It's her birthday.

The only thing she
should be thinking about

is whether she wants to
start her day with a croissant

or a crepe.

Wish all problems were
that easily solved.

You and Audrey?

She still doesn't know
who the girl is, right?

Kinda just been avoiding
each other recently.

Well, I hope that you're
not feeling guilty,

'cause the only thing you
did is kiss some rando girl,

and she, like, fucked someone

that you know, so that's
not equitable at all.

Well, I was just wondering if...

it's the first time she branched out.

Well, have you talked to
her? Have you been direct?

This is like a role reversal.
I'm giving you advice again.

- Second time for everything.
- I'm just saying,

you're not gonna know until
you ask her. I'd just say

don't kiss anybody else
until you talk to her.

Yes.

Seriously? Not even concealer?

I hate you for being so blessed.

Sending a posthumous thank you

to your mom on this day of remembrance.

Thank you, Aud. You
can talk about you now.

Okay, so, I know that
we agreed to pretend

our mutual dalliances
with Max never happened,

but I fear it's irrevocably shifted

the dynamic between Ak and me.

Really? Sleeping with
one of your mutual,

best friends did that?

Fair, but for me, it isn't about Max.

Well, it is, but not in that way.

I slept with someone
of the opposite sex,

which is unacceptable but not abnormal.

Aki kissed a member of the same sex.

Not normal at all.

Is it possible that
he's attracted to men...

Obviously he's attracted to men, Julien!

...and never told you

because you use words like "normal."

Fair again. But, like,
is he bi? Is he gay?

I mean, what if all this
time that we've been together,

he's been hiding who he really is?

Hiding inside me?

Just ask him. If he's
gay, or bi, whatever it is,

he's probably scared
of how you'll react.

Just talk to him without judgment

and listen to his response.

And maybe stay far away
from Max till you do.

Are those crepes?

Good morning, babe.

- Um. We love you.
- But we are appalled.

Because he never did
something like this for me?

No. Because no one wants to
see anyone without a filter.

People do not click to see
how similar you are to them.

They click precisely
for the perverse pleasure

that comes from worshipping someone

they could never be or have.

I need a break from all that.

- Hmm?
- I wanna be more real,

- more honest, more vulnerable.
- Vulnerability is the disease of the masses.

Right? You're royalty. Strong,
indestructible, unattainable.

Oh, I'm definitely that.

JC, some news.

A friend of mine at Condé says

he heard they're going to offer you

a slot in one of the spring Vogues,

shot by Tyler Mitchell

in a Bavarian palace or something.

- Yeah, let's grab something.
- I'm gonna get a crepe.

Film me eating it?

- Did she just turn down Vogue?
- There was no Vogue.

I just wanted to see how
far gone she really was.

I can almost forgive
carbs and a shiny forehead,

but indifference to a fashion spread?

Okay, well, what do
we... what do we do now?

All those years of work for nothing,

when it could have been Suri?
It could have been Zahara.

I... I can't end up working
with my mom in biotech.

- I just can't.
- Don't worry.

The first missile's
already been launched.

It may even have hit already.
And then we'll be on our way.

Surprise!

I didn't know what mood you would be in,

so I got a lot of stuff going on.

We got waffles, we got
tacos, we got crepes.

- Happy birthday!
- This... this is really sweet.

Uh. Really, it's... it's just,

I don't... I don't
celebrate my birthday.

Or at least not today.

Is that, like, a... religious thing?

I mean, I just realized
I never asked you.

Oh, It's... it's not something
that I usually volunteer,

but today is not just my birthday.

It's also the anniversary of, um...

- Of course.
- It's just... just a weird day for me.

Yeah, I'll just get all this

- cleared out right now.
- No.

I'm... I'm so sorry.

Hey, happy birthday...

Did you tell Gossip
Girl today's my birthday?

Why would I tell Gossip Girl anything?

I just wanted to tell
you happy birthday.

Today is not a happy day, Julien.

- Are you trying to fuck with me?
- What?

No. Of course not.

Sure.

They're like pinballs this morning.

- Clack, ding. Clack, ding.
- Pinballs I keep draining.

You seem like you could use an Ambien.

Or an eight-ball.

This has become a full-time job.

- Between the tips from the new schools...
- That Horace Mann!

- They're still at it.
- And everyone here,

constantly sending me
stuff on each other.

Is that why you asked me if
second cousins was incest?

It isn't. I hope.

The only time I get to
work on my lesson plans

or grade papers is after they go to bed.

Which is never. And the worst thing

is that something great
just fell into my lap.

Something just for me.

A friend of mine from
The Writers' Workshop

is an editor at The Paris Review,

and they're doing an issue
on undiscovered writers

and she wants me to
submit. But I... How? When?

Why don't you let us help out,
take our share of the burden?

We're all in this together,

yet you never let us take the wheel.

Today is Zoya's birthday!

I mean, something is gonna
happen, I can feel it.

She and Julien are fine. I
mean, not friends, but fine.

Besides, who would cause
drama on a birthday?

And this was supposed to
be our thing too. Remember?

Maybe if you let us help
more, it'll lessen your stress?

What's more important?

Crafting posts on privileged brats,

or getting published
in The Paris Review?

That was a trick question.
You know that, right?

You'll let me know if anything changes?

You have our word.

- Hey, Z, got a sec?
- Um...

I don't want to be the
one to ruin your day,

but in light of the fact

that I'm your closest
Constance confidante...

You definitely are not that.

Julien doesn't want you here.

She told us she's had enough

of your "consistent,
disrespectful displays

- for attention."
- I had nothing to do

- with the food trucks.
- All I'm saying,

she might seem fine,
but she wants things

back the way they used to be.

- Which means you gone.
- I doubt that's true, Luna.

She's done something.

Something I'm somewhat responsible for.

What are you talking about?

I'm sorry, okay?

I didn't know she would use it.

Use what?

- Sorry.
- Oh, hey!

I was just looking for you, actually.

Me too!

- Who are you texting?
- Uh, my mom.

Oh.

- Who are you calling?
- If you're leaving...

My mom.

- Okay, bye.
- Bye.

- Ms. Keller.
- Mr. Caparros?

You haven't received
any tips on Max Wolfe

the past few days, have you?

Relax.

If I was gonna out your pet project,

I would've done it when
Black Cube was here.

Just the usual girls and boys
complaining that he's gone

from breadcrumbing to
outright ghosting. Why?

He, um, owes me an essay,

and he hasn't shown
up to class in a week.

Let me know if you hear anything?

We will.

Hey, look, I... I really am sorry.

I should've known better.

You don't have to apologize.

I mean, to be honest, I prefer
to keep my birthday low-key.

But I still wanna celebrate you.

Maybe do a little get-together,
handful of our friends,

some food, music.

Your idea of a low-key
solution is a party?

Right, okay, we can scratch that.

Um. How about just dinner?

Me, you, your dad. I'll
pretend I know how to cook,

and you guys can watch and laugh.

- That sounds very acceptable.
- Call your dad and ask?

Everything okay, Z? And
if so, can I call you back?

Can't really talk right now.

Dad, what's going on? Where are you?

Nothing. It's just,
like, a client thing.

I can tell when you're lying.

Look, I really didn't want
to tell you this today, honey,

but someone called in an anonymous tip

to the housing board, saying we're

living in Grandma's
apartment without her present.

Boom! Direct hit.

Let World War Z commence.

- Start composing.
- I'm already on my third line.

If you post Monet's
tip and Kate sees it,

- she'll take GG back.
- She's not gonna see it.

Not yet, at least. Buys
us and her some time.

Okay, so... "This just in..."

- Say spotted, say spotted!
- I didn't spot it.

Hey, followers.

We all know there's no such thing

- as a civil war.
- Hmm. That's good.

- I'm out.
- Here, let me.

Spies tell us a certain someone

has drawn her own Mason-Dixon line...

...with herself on one side

and her sister on the other.

But everyone knows a
divide isn't enough.

You have to conquer as well.

Whoo!

Thank you.

And there's a cannon

pointed in only one direction.

- Ciao!
- What's in it?

You'll find out when
you hear the sirens.

Take cover, my pretties.
The glitzkrieg is coming!

I'm so turned on right now

GG says Zoya's planning an attack on me.

But why?

What could she possibly
have to use against me?

And what've I ever
done that's so terrible?

You were in the "Imagine" video.

And what's this thing
about drawing a line?

She actually thinks I'm
trying to get her evicted?

I've only been nice to Zoya on her day.

Wished her happy birthday,
acted totally fine

when my ex-boyfriend
filled Fifth Avenue

with food trucks for her.

This attack is totally unwarranted.

Thing is, it doesn't matter
what you did or didn't do.

She's clearly been
waiting to take you down.

She must've found
something to do it with.

Come on. We've been civil.

Things have been fine between us.

Really? Or did you just roll over

and accept her stealing your man,

your thunder, and your throne?
Julien, there can only be one.

I mean, how many times did
that Mary person threaten

to kill Queen Elizabeth before
she actually cut her head off?

It's time for a show of force.

You want me to murder my sister?

Only socially. Which is much worse.

- You're going to throw a party.
- When?

Tonight.

On Zoya's birthday?

JC, you've been lucky.

You've never had to be on defense,

because no one's ever stood in your way.

But that changed the moment
that you brought her here.

She started taking
what was yours day one,

and she's not going to
stop till she has it all.

Send her back. It's time.

How does throwing a
party stop her from using

- whatever she has on me?
- Julien, if your party is loud enough,

no one's gonna even hear the sound

of the bomb she's trying to explode.

Now, call your dad. You're
gonna ask him for a favor.

A big one.

- Hey!
- Did you see this?

Yeah, it's ridiculous. I'm... I'm sorry.

She's trying to get us evicted,

and now she's throwing a party.

I can't believe she'd
stoop so low to hurt me.

Well, let's not let her, all right?

How about a phone-free lunch?

And did you see the follow-up post?

“Special guest to be announced”?

Who's the special guest, the
exhumed corpse of our mother?

Jesus, Zoya.

I take... I take it back.

- Good.
- Let's have that party.

A big one.

- You don't really mean that. I...
- Yes, I do.

The only reason I didn't want to before

was out of respect to our mom.

So, if she doesn't care
about that, why should I?

Hey, where should we have it?

- Radio City? Governors Island?
- Zoya!

We could have people to your house.

I'll figure something out,

I guess.

Hey, Aki,

Obie's throwing me a party tonight.

- You should come.
- He can't.

He's going to Julien's party with me.

I can go to both.

No, you cannot go to both.
You have to choose one.

So, which party is it gonna be?

Obie's party or the girls party?

I don't have to choose.
Maybe you should choose.

Coming somewhere with me,

or going somewhere with someone else.

I'm so funny.

Oh, my God.

What just happened?

Oh, Princess Nokia is
playing Julien's party.

You can watch it on YouTube tomorrow.

I guess you can too.

She got Princess Nokia?

How am I supposed to compete with that?

- You don't... you don't have to.
- Easy for you to say.

Someone like you can
afford a war. I can't.

Who can we get to play our party?

Uh, Rihanna?

SZA? Kamala Harris?

I'm gonna see you
after school, all right?

- Hello?
- Forgive me for eavesdropping.

Sounds like you've got a problem.

I'm a great problem solver.

Um, no thank you, strange child.

I'm Milo, and I'm not a
child. I'm in eighth grade.

- Aren't you, like, seven?
- Ten.

Meet me after school?

Ew, no!

Clearly you don't know who
I am. My last name is Sparks.

Really Ivanov, but in this day and age,

- it's best to leave that out.
- Yeah, I don't know who you are,

but I would like to
end this conversation.

Google is your friend.

Once you use it, I will be too.

- Max, you shouldn't be in here.
- Why not?

It's the school gym
and I go to the school.

Wow. You look like shit.

Oh, you should see the other guys.

You know, I tried to reach you all week.

I'm sure your friends did too.

Oh, I lost my phone at The Cock.

Just slid out of my hand
in the dark room and, uh...

You're not okay, are you?

That depends on where
the baseline starts.

All this is 'cause of what happened

- with your dads?
- What happened with my dads?

You need to lay off the
drugs and deal with your shit.

Why don't we deal with it together?

Oh, I am so overdressed
for this occasion.

Oh, okay, that's how you like it?

- That makes sense.
- Max, stop!

Stop screwing around
and just fuck me already!

I know you want to.

If you don't, I'll just tell everyone

- you did anyway.
- Are you threatening me?

I don't know.

Tell you what. Let's ask
Gossip Girl what she thinks.

Shit. I don't have my phone!

- Go fuck yourself, Max, okay?
- Get off me.

Heard through the grapevine
that today's your birthday.

- You... you read Gossip Girl?
- Guilty as charged.

You don't seem too happy about it.

No, it's just been a long
day and it's only 3:00.

Do you wanna talk about it?

It's just my sister.

You know, since I got here,
it's been this unending battle.

But I thought things
were getting better?

I guess you haven't been on Instagram.

My phone died. May I?

As you can see, no more cold war.

It's a full-on offensive.

And...

...there's nothing I can
really do to fight back,

'cause I'm outmanned.

It doesn't matter how
big your battalion is.

It's what you do with it that counts.

The sad thing about this world

is that people like us

have to constantly prove we belong.

Honestly, I think it
could be really helpful

for the 99 percent of the world
to see you stand your ground.

Thank you, Kate. I'm
really glad I know you.

You blocked me!

How many pages of your
story have you written?

You said nothing would happen today.

That nobody causes drama
on someone's birthday.

- Have you watched Bravo?
- When you send me your story,

I'll unblock you. And
not a minute sooner.

I'm doing you a favor.

My mom taught me early on

that it isn't enough to go to war.

Wars never end.

What you need is a coup.

- Here you go, sir.
- I told you, Shiga.

Only Hawaiian papaya.

- We got her from Ivanka.
- _

She's fairly new.

Uh, you were saying? About a coup?

Coups are the only way
to really gain control.

You assassinate the leader...

...which throws everything into chaos,

and during the melee,
you install yourself

and restore order like
the savior you are.

I'm praying you're
speaking metaphorically.

I can be.

What's, like, a step or ten below that?

Fine. We can try what I like
to call the "Succession."

It's got simpler steps.

First, you weaken the
brand you want to buy,

making it ripe for takeover.

No better way to weaken an influencer

than to cancel them.

Okay, but I don't wanna make
anything up or... or lie.

The good thing about the internet
is that you never have to.

Most people cancel themselves
if you dig back far enough.

My mom would be so mad at me

for taking on something this easy.

What about that Dries jumpsuit

you wore to the Palais de Tokyo show?

Mm-mmm. Hailey Bieber
wore it to Erewhon.

Dead to me.

Oh! What about this one?

That's cute. I love it.

Any progress with Ak?

Mm, no.

He honestly thinks I'm the
one who has to make a choice,

which makes zero sense to me.

That's weird. I just got
a bunch of cancellations

for tonight.

Something about Twitter?

What's "Calloway Cancel
Party" and why is it trending?

“There is a difference
between thick and fat people.”

- That tweet did not age well.
- I was 13!

It gets worse. Jameela
Jamil just defended you.

Princess Nokia just cancelled!

- What?
- "There's a difference

between kind and cruel too."

Zoya! Who else?

You really think she'd go that far?

I told you she's a catalyst of
chaos. What are you gonna do?

You cannot let her Kim and Kanye you

and then get away with it.

You're right. I'm done playing.

This is not just her birthday.
We both lost our mom today,

and now, we're fighting
over who knows what.

I should be the bigger
person in all of this.

And you know what the
bigger person does?

- What?
- She makes it not just about her.

- If only Aki would do the same.
- Do it for him.

Princess Nokia is
playing my party tonight,

and you are getting an
answer from your boyfriend

by showing him that you have options.

And very hot ones at that.

This is a photo of my
late mother, Marion,

wearing her favorite dress.

This dress and this photo

are my most treasured possessions.

She died 15 years ago
today, in childbirth...

You gotta be fucking kidding me.

Tonight's party was conceived
to be a charitable affair

to both honor her legacy and raise funds

for the Lupus Foundation of America.

She's using our dead mom to get people

to go to her party?

Look, Julien can be selfish.

I mean, she has her
selfish moments, but...

that is her mom too, you
know? I mean, you ever think

that maybe that's how she really feels?

It's a PR stunt.

One you're falling for, of course.

All right, I get that your
emotions are high today,

but you don't have to let
this get to you, all right?

You're Zoya. You are cool, you are calm.

And you don't care about petty stuff

- like that.
- You don't get it, Obie.

Look, if my dad and I get evicted,

we have nowhere to go.

You know? No stockpile
of money to save us.

And I don't know if we
can go back to Buffalo.

Why not?

I'm not letting her destroy this.

Milo, go to phase two.

I'm ready to do whatever it takes.

Please explain why we're
learning about a war

between our daughters from
assistants in our offices?

- Ask Julien.
- What? Zoya started it.

Did Zoya put one of my
friends in the awkward position

of having to play a party she denounced

because it is suddenly for charity?

- Nokia's still coming?
- Yes, but that is not the point.

And you, young lady. I don't even know

- what to do with you.
- Why aren't you more mad at her?

She's the one trying to get us evicted.

No, I'm not.

I don't care about what's going on here,

I just want it to end.

Between work and appealing
to the housing board,

this is the last thing I need.

I'm sure you feel the same way, Davis.

Completely. This fighting is not what

your mother would've wanted.

Especially not today.

Which is why we have both decided

that since it's too late to cancel,

this will be a joint party.

Yeah, two young women coming together

to celebrate their mother.

Hey, either you do it together

or you don't do it at
all. It's up to you.

- Fine.
- Fine.

I will see you tonight, Nick.

And happy birthday, Zoya.

I really thought we left this kind
of trouble behind in Buffalo, Z.

So did I.

This just in.

We hear a tale...

...of two sisters may have

a happy ending after all.

Word is their fathers forced

a sisterly cease-fire.

But does tonight's
newly-conjoined celebration

signal a signed treaty,
or a Trojan Horse?

Time to play truce or dare.

Oh, my God.

She spon-conned you.

She's learning, I'll give her that.

Julien, we simply must get

a photo together on the step...

...and repeat that your
sponsors so generously provided.

Oh, and the teachers.

So nice of you to invite them.

Nice, now get together.

- Big smile.
- Oh, love it.

- Nice stunt
- Only the best for you, sis.

Three, two, one.

What are you counting down to?

- What is it?
- They set up a GoFundMe.

"For our dear, destitute classmate,

Zoya Lott's housing
crisis.” If my dad sees this,

- he's gonna be humiliated.
- Look at me.

It's just noise. Don't
pay attention to it.

- You wanna go dance?
- Good thing

I'm already one step ahead of her.

A step ahead?

Ugh!

I'm being attacked by Russian bots!

You're being Venmoed for

is down for the weekend

to interview for an internship
at The Criterion Collection.

Our mums met at the last TEDSummit.

It's a pleasure.

Oh, holding? Holding?

I'm on a Dory, and honestly,

Also, I understand it must've been

really difficult for you.

It was essential.

Are you really getting evicted?

The board's trying.

Most of the units in the building

have gone co-op in the past decade.

My mom held out, but didn't tell anybody

when she was hospitalized.

It sucks, but it's not
entirely without cause.

We did lie about living
there without my mom.

- Assisted living.

- If there's ever anything I can do to help...

Uh... No chance.

we've led by great example.

be doing at home right now,

that's your future, your career.

I don't know what's wrong with me.

I was at home, working,

but then as soon as the party started,

it's all I could think about.

Next thing I knew, I was out the door

and on the train, and now I'm here.

- What are you so scared of?
- Maybe her story is bad.

If Gossip Girl reported on me,

you know what she'd say?

"Keller dropped out of Iowa,
six months shy of her MFA."

"Like literary, great
Hannah Horvath before her,

she just wasn't good enough."

This, I'm good at.

This is where I'm not
just read, but heard.

What if, in the end, Gossip
Girl is all I'm good for?

have a video.

Something about why you didn't invite

your old friends from Buffalo tonight?

- Oh, my God. I have to stop her.
- Where have you been?

I can't talk right
now. Your ex-girlfriend

is about to ruin my fucking life!

Thank you!

In honor of my... sis's 15th birthday,

I wanted to talk a little bit about...

...the woman who really
made all of this happen.

- Our mother...
- Aww!

- ...Calloway Marion.
- Oh, shit.

There's a lot Zoya and I

never got to learn from her,

but we know, from our dads
and deep inside our hearts,

that she was amazing.

But...

...like every person,
she had two sides to her.

She was brave, brilliant, beautiful,

but she wasn't always honest.

She wasn't... always good.

I mean, she left her own baby, me,

to run off with another man.

Now, that reckless, irresponsible,

unreliable part of my
mom, I didn't inherit,

thankfully. But someone did.

And now,

thanks to this video, we all get to see

just how much of my mom
the supposedly upstanding,

righteous Zoya really got.

This school sucks!

Oh! Oh! Tag the chem lab! Yeah!

This school sucks!

Here comes the director's cut.

Okay.

Oh, come on, Emma. This isn't funny.

- Mother killer!
- Let me out, guys.

- This isn't funny. Let me out.
- Hey, are you upset, mother killer?

- Are you upset?
- Hey, Bella...

- Open the door.
- She's gonna cry.

What are you gonna do,
mother killer? You gonna cry?

Let me out!

Let me out!

What is this?

- I didn't see this part.
- Let me out!

Of course she goes soft.

- What is this?
- Aww!

This isn't funny anymore! Let me out!

- Let me out!
- I didn't see this part.

Let me out!

Mother killer! Killer!

- Okay, mother killer!
- Fire!

- Turn it off! Turn it off now!
- Oh, shit!

Stop!

What the fuck, Julien.

Hey, everyone.

I know that video was traumatic.

You're probably
wondering why I played it.

I'm wondering that too.

I hadn't seen the whole thing,

but... that's no excuse.

I just... thought that she was...

I didn't know she was
being bullied, but...

I guess when you're a bully yourself,

you don't see that.

Since I can't turn back the clock,

the very least I can
do is tell the truth.

I'm a bully.

And whether I do it to your face...

or through your phone
without you realizing...

it's the same thing.

I expect you to want what I have,

but not be able to get it.

So, if you try to,

I'll do everything in
my power to stop you.

And because I have considerable power...

I can.

But never again.

Take out your phones.

Do it. Hit record.

I am a bully.

I bully my sister.

I bully my friends, my fans.

And I'm never gonna do it
again, so long as I live.

You have this video.

Dubsmash it, DeuxMoi it.

Gossip Girl it for all it's worth.

Now...

...how about we put this pain behind us

and bow down to the Princess?

You've been avoiding this
long enough. Here's good.

- You've been avoiding it too.
- Avoiding what?

Was Max the only one,
or have you been cheating

- on me this whole time?
- What?

Of course he's the only one.

What? You really thought that...

No, definitely not.

Now you go.

I'm not gay!

I don't... Maybe... Sometimes...
I think I'm into both.

But I'm into you,

and I love you, and
I'm attracted to you.

I'm sorry that I slept with Max.

I'm not sorry I kissed him.

Guess that's a start.

You said you were

gonna take me somewhere
to ride out my trip.

- This is why I am tripping.
- I called your dads.

Roy said you haven't been home in days.

- He's worried about you.
- Roy's only my father on paper.

- That's not true.
- No.

Gideon is my biological dad.

You know, the guy that Roy
screwed over, along with me?

So, you getting fucked
up is supposed to, what,

teach him some kind of lesson?

That you don't care? 'Cause it's obvious

- you care a whole lot.
- Why do you care?

Because some of us don't
have one dad who loves us,

let alone two.

I'm sorry, I... I, uh...

I didn't know.

Roy made a mistake, but he loves you

and he's trying to fix it...

because that's what real dads do.

Don't push him away. Let him in.

He needs you right now.

Yeah, and what do you need?

Hmm?

Last year, my best
friend started hanging out

with some other kids.

Guess I was no longer cool or something.

On my birthday, she
told me she was sorry,

to come hang out at the school.

At first, it was fun.
They just kept daring me

to do stuff. Steal a
trophy, tag the walls.

I was desperate to fit in, so...

Anyway, they were
just waiting to get me.

Bella had told them how our mom died.

And so, they... put me in that room.

You know the rest.

And when I realized what was happening,

I started to panic.

Like, really... panic.

And all I could think of was
to set off the fire alarm.

You know, I don't even think I cared

about if I got out
of there alive or not.

'Cause they weren't wrong.

I killed our mom.

She had an illness.
Lupus killed her, not you.

No, you say that, but
you don't have to live...

...with knowing that the
only reason you're alive

is because she's dead.

You're alive because
she wanted you to be.

Because she wanted you.

I'm sorry I never thought
about how much pain you were in.

I'm sorry for a lot of things,
and I'll always be sorry.

Oh, well, um, I hope you'll stop soon,

'cause it's really nice

to have somebody who knows
what I'm going through.

That's what sisters are for, I guess.

From now on,

this day is your birthday first.

That's what she would've wanted...

and that's what I want too.

I'm glad you were born, Zoya Jane.

Julien Elizabeth.

Here.

It's not too late to
turn this party around.

God, I think I really
fucked things up with Obie.

- Can I tell you stuff like that?
- Yes. Because it's true...

and we don't hide from
stuff like that anymore.

All right, followers.

Time to face the music.

Looks like the war is finally over.

I think your girlfriend wants to dance.

If you'll excuse me, I'll go tell Luna

and Monet to put their weapons down.

♪ Diggin' up old ground ♪

You didn't leave.

Well, how could I? I'm
dating the birthday girl.

For... at least another hour.

I will be very glad when
this day is behind me.

I'm sorry that that happened to you.

I'm sorry too. For how I treated you.

You only wanted to make
this day special for me,

and I pushed you aside.

I wasn't myself, and...

I'm grateful that I
have someone like you

who knows the real me.

Apology accepted.

And starting now,

you're gonna get the
birthday you deserve.

How about I call and get you
a suite at the Greenwich Hotel

for a relaxing night alone?

Twelve-hour massage, room
service, whatever you want.

I've never ordered
room service in my life.

Well, tonight could be the night.

But would you mind if
I took a rain check?

There's someone I really
want to spend tonight with.

But the thing about when wars end?

Nobody is ever the same again.

When the dust has settled
and the smoke clears,

only then can we finally
face what we've done.

I did what you said.

And? How'd it go?

He blamed me for everything.

Like it's my fault that
their marriage fell apart,

it's my fault he fell out of love.

None of this is your fault.

What the fuck is wrong with me?

- Nothing is wrong with you.
- Yeah? Well,

you're probably the only person
who thinks that right now.

You should go.

Yeah.

I really should.

- Max, I can't...
- Stop? Me neither.

Fuck it.

No one returns from war unchanged.

We come back strangers.

Not only to those around
us, but to ourselves.

So, what happens now?

I don't know, but... we'll
figure it out together.

And slowly, little by little,

we either remember who we used to be,

or we allow ourselves
to become someone new.

Hey, can I give you a ride?

I live, like, 60 blocks from here.

I don't mind.

Who will you be,

now that this is over?

I don't know about you,

but since it wasn't
the end of the world...

I feel fine.

Scratch that.

Better than fine.

Finally free.

Effortlessly yours...

XOXO...
