- Hey, I, I was just wondering.

W-Would you wanna, maybe,
catch a movie or something?

- Oh, um, like a--
- Like a, like a date.

- Uh, I, I didn't think that's
what we were doin' here.

- W-Well, as-as much as I love
hooking up in your parents' car,

I, I figured maybe we could just...
share a meal together?

- Um... to be honest, I'm not--

I'm not really looking
for a relationship right now.

Um, I'm just havin' fun,
and meetin' people, and--

- People? S-So you're, uh,
hanging out with multiple people?

- Just a few.

Is, is that... cool with you?
That we just keep this casual?

- Uh...

Y-Yeah, yeah. T-Totally.

- Goodness, you are just
the prettiest girls in all of Creekwood,

even in that lumpy old sweater.

- Can we help you?

- Okay, remember Melinda,

my old stylist who had
that unfortunate mole?

Anyway, she's starting
her own boutique,

and she's desperate to have some
VIPs at the big grand opening.

And this VIP needs her "VI-Posse,"

trademark pending, to come with.

- Well, that sounds so fun, um,
but I have a project for world civ.

I have to design my own society,

and all I have so far
is "must-have toilets."

- Mm...

- But Mia could go with you.

- Wait. What's happening?
- Oh, we'll go to lunch.

We'll go shopping, we'll girl talk.

It'll be just like having a daughter.

- Um, hi.
- Another daughter. So touchy, this one.

- Why am I spending the afternoon
shopping with your mother?

- Please. I just--

I can't do another one
of these shopping days

where she criticizes
everything about me,

and asks me endless questions
about which boys I'm dating.

- Yeah, that does sound awkward.

When are you gonna tell her
about your Lucy situation?

- Hm, well, my general policy is
never, ever tell her anything ever.

Please, just... take her off
my hands for a day.

- Mia. Hi. I'm gonna be wearing coral,

so if you could just wear
a similar color palette.

Thank you.

- [chuckles] You owe me.

RAHIM:
Quick quesch.

So, you know how
I'm in peer tutoring?

Well, Benji fell behind in rehab,

and of all the people in this school,
he was assigned me.

Is that weird for you?

- No, no.
Y-You should definitely help him.

Although, I don't think you're
his favorite person at the moment.

- Once I rebrand myself
as a super-helpful calculus buddy,

I'll win him over...
'cause I grow on people.

I'm a grower, not a show-er.

- I don't think that means
what you think it means.

We don't get that many chances

- Yeah, I know, but after all
the "studying" we've been doing,

I need to do some actual studying.

PILAR:
Actual studying?

- You know, you're a bad influence on me.

- You love it.
FELIX: I really do.

PILAR:
[chuckles] Okay, bye.

Do... friends cup each other's faces?

- Cup each other's faces?
What are you talking about?

You are smushing me.
What is wrong with you?

- I saw Pilar doin' it
to Felix in the hallway.

- Oh... probably had
something on his cheek.

He's a very messy eater.

I'm gonna have to get him
a rain poncho for chili night.

- Isa, no, I'm telling you,
I saw something.

- She has been acting
kinda strange lately.

Like... happy.
- Yes.

Like the other day, she said "I love you,"

and then didn't ask me for money after.

I mean, what the hell?

- Yeah, and she did just put
mascara on just to go get the mail.

[Isabel gasps]

Pilar and Felix are messing around.

- I can't believe
I didn't see this sooner.

Oh, my God.

I mean, today at breakfast...

Veronica is almost at nine months,

- Oh, yeah. Poor thing.
Pregnancy just ravages the body.

I mean... if you absolutely
have to have a baby,

you should definitely hire a surrogate.

[Mia chuckles]
Mia, can I ask you something?

- Uh, sure.

Oh. [chuckles]
Okay, just in the dressing room.

- Should I be worried about Lake?

- I don't think so.

I, I think everything's fine.
Why do you ask?

- She's been so cagey with me lately.
I mean, even more than normal.

And last week, we did a story about
this new psychedelic drug called Paint.

She's not... "painting," is she?

- What? No.

I don't even know what that is.

But, um... you don't need to worry.

Lake has been super happy lately.

- She has? Oh, that's so good to hear.

You know, it's funny.
I was not close with my mom growing up.

I mean, she'd already raised four kids
by the time I showed up.

I was a... drunken mistake.

She used to call me her
"chardonnay surprise."

So I swore if I ever had a daughter,
we'd be best friends,

and... here I am asking you
about Lake's life

because she doesn't want to
have anything to do with me.

She is so lucky to have
a friend like you, Mia.

- Bought us some fresh-baked pastries
to signify our fresh new start.

- Thanks, but I'm, I'm good.

- Okay, well, can you
at least take the coffee?

Otherwise, I'll have to drink both,
and if you think I'm a lot now.

- You don't have to pretend to like me.

You need the extra credit.
I need the help.

Maybe we just get through this?

- Oh, yeah. Sure, sure.

Can I just say one more thing?

There are only three other
gay guys in this whole school.

- Well, that we know of.
- Right?

Sophomore Matthew really sets off my 'dar.

All I'm saying is,
shouldn't we at least try to get along?

When I told Victor that
I was tutoring you--

- Wait, wait, wait.
Y-You told Victor I need tutoring?

- I didn't know it was a secret.

- No, it's, it's not a secret.
It's, it's just--

Forget it.
Can we please just... get to work?

[knocks on door]

- See Nick last night?

Oh!

[grunts] Tell me everything.
- Why are you so invested in this?

- C'mon. Let me live vicariously
through your lusty wanton affairs.

My mom's been listening
to The Scarlet Letter on Audible.

- Well... Nick and I hooked up
in his little sister's playhouse

while his whole family was home.

- Wanton!
- Honestly,

I'm really loving
this whole casual thing.

I don't have to worry
about where it's going,

and w-we could do whatever we want,

whenever we want with whoever we--

- You okay down there?
- Yeah, do mind turning
around for a second?

- Okay.

[unzips pants]

- Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
- Ohh!

Okay, first of all, con-congratulations
on what you're packing,

but that is a mean wang.

- Stop looking!
- Well, okay, I can't.

It's like a car accident.

But it's, it's, it's,
it's only a little rash.

It's probably also
a sexually transmitted disease,

but it happens to the best of us.

- What do I do?!

- Two options: one, we send a super
explicit photo to our sex-ed teacher.

[sighs]

Option two? Free clinic.

- Free clinic!

- Hey... back from shopping.
Got some cute stuff.

- You survived a day with my mom.

I have an excellent therapist
you can talk to if you need to debrief.

- Ah, I don't know.
I actually saw a different side of her.

She was... kind of, nice.

She kept talking about how
she wanted you to be there.

And she really wishes
you guys were closer.

- Yeah, well, she also wishes
Harry Styles was 10 years older.

I told her that's not the obstacle.

- I know she can be tricky,

but underneath it all,
she really does love you.

Maybe you should tell her about Lucy?

I think she'd be supportive.

- So, one afternoon
and you're an expert on my mom?

- No, I'm, I'm not saying that.

I just think she would like
to know more about your life.

- Okay, well, you guys
are best friends now,

so why don't you tell her?

- [sighs] Okay, maybe
I shouldn't have said anything.

- Yeah... maybe you shouldn't have.

- She's home.

- Okay, we're gonna have a nice,
calm talk like we discussed, right?

- Right.

- Hello, wonderful parents.

- Adrian, go to your room.
We need to talk to your sister.

- [sighs] I always miss the juicy stuff.

- Is this about the $20
I took from your wallet?

Because I did ask,
just very, very quietly.

- What's going on between you and Felix?

- Going on? Nothing. We're friends.

- Pilar, your father saw you two
yesterday with the face cupping.

We're giving you a chance to be honest.
I would suggest you take it.

- Okay, fine... We're together.

- So, um, you lied to us.

- I didn't lie. I just didn't tell you.

- That's exactly what lying is.

This whole time we thought
you were studying,

but, no, you were in your room
with your door closed

with your boyfriend doing God knows what.

- We're not having sex or anything.
- Oh my God.

- [speaks Spanish]

How can I believe
a single thing you say?

- You see, this is exactly
why I didn't tell you.

Any time I date someone, Dad goes crazy.

- Oh, you think this is crazy?
Oh, no. You don't even know crazy.

- Remember when I started dating Eric
and you showed him your knife collection?

What about Rudy Diaz, hm?

He held my hand
at my fifth-grade roller skating party.

You pulled him aside,
and whatever you said to him
made him pee his pants.

- No! No, no. You don't get to yell at me!

You're the one in trouble!
Now go to your room!

- I'm not a child!
- Go!

- We're not exactly a "calm talk"
kind of family, are we?

How you doin' today?

Just... a little embarrassed.

- Well, there's nothin'
to be embarrassed about.

You're, you're being responsible.
You're gettin' tested.

So, your urine and blood samples
have been delivered to the lab.

Just a couple questions
before I peek under the hood.

- Okay.

- How many partners
are you sexually active with?

- J-Just, just one.
- Okay, so you're monogamous?

- Well, I-I'm monogamous,

It's casual... and I, I agreed to that

my heart to get broken.

- There's not a box for that here,

You use condoms?

See, we don't have sex-sex.

We, we do everything but.

I mean, not everything in the butt.

Why don't we go ahead and raise your gown.

Let's get a good look at that.

what we're gonna do.

You're gonna look at the problem

What's the limit, dumbass?

Negative one?

Maybe I should've been cussin'
at you this whole time.

- What are you looking for?
- Change of clothes.

Shit. I must've left it in my mom's car.

She's stuck at work,
so my uncle Farzad's picking me up.

He's visiting from Iran,
and he's super religious,

and doesn't even believe
that gay people exist.

So, while he's staying at the house,
my parents asked me if I could--

- Go back in the closet?

- And I'm trying to be
really cool about it

since they were so great
about me coming out.

But if he tells people back in Iran,

it'll be like this huge,
dark stain on my family.

And now, I'm wearing
the fruitiest shirt in my closet,

and he's gonna be here in 20 minutes.

- Okay, uh, well... I think I can help.

- How can you help?

- [gently] Okay, Rahim,
here's what we're gonna do.

First, you need to put the pencil down,
and then come with me.

- God, is that really what I sounded like?

How did you not punch me in the face?

- It was hard.
Come on.

♪

- Hey. How's it goin'? You okay?

- It's not an STI.

It's poison ivy
which I probably got from

hooking up with Nick in his backyard.

- Okay! That's great.

Hey, put some cream on the ween
and get back out there.

- I guess it's just--

If I was still with Benji,
none of this would've happened.

And even if it did, like, we would've
gone through it together, you know?

My dad's furious.
He wouldn't even let me explain.

Now he's gonna try to, like,
forbid us from being together,

Kinda the best day ever.

- I'm happy for you guys.
- Thanks, man.

- Hey.

Uhh, it's weird being in a fight
when we live in the same house.

- Normally, I would just
dramatically hang up on you

and not have to see you later
eating my yogurt.

- I'm, I'm sorry for, uh, pressuring you
to talk to your mom about Lucy.

That is 100% your decision,

and you should only
do it when you're ready.

- Thank you.
- And I'm always on your side.

I just got swept up in our day

'cause she was fun and nice,

and... it felt good to have
a mom take interest in my life.

- I know.

I'm not even mad at you.
I'm mad at her.

It would make my life so much easier
if I could just tell her about Lucy,

but... I can't.

The more I like something,
the more she criticizes it.

In the seventh grade,
I saved up all of my birthday money

to buy this super cute
plaid jacket from Forever 21.

- Hm, I remember that jacket.
You wore it everywhere.

- And then my mom told me
that I looked like a bagpipe,

and I never wore it again.

She poisons everything.

- Well, maybe it's time you tell your mom
how these criticisms make you feel.

- Yeah, maybe.

There's an "L" here on the lid.
- I--

- "L" for Lake. I'm just gonna take this.
- Okay.

- You'd be surprised what you
can find in the lost and found.

- Anything'll do. I'm not picky.

- All right... here you go.

- No, never.
I'd rather watch baseball.

- Hey, listen.

Sorry for being a jerk...
about the tutoring.

Sometimes when I'm overwhelmed, I can be--

I can be kind of an asshole.

- Why are you overwhelmed?

- I just feel like
I'm disappointing everybody.

I mean, my parents
don't even know about my grades.

They already see me
as this giant failure, my drinking.

I don't know how to tell 'em
I'm failing one more thing.

- Guess we can't say we don't
know anything about each other.

- Yeah, both our family situations suck.
- Yeah.

Ah, it's so ugly.
- Oh, c'mon.

You're tryna look straight. It's perfect.

- [sighs] Fine.

- Mm... first Victor and now me.

Mm, you gotta stop
tryin' to seduce people.

- Shut up.

- Mi amor, what're you doin'?

- I am gonna take our daughter's door...
off the hinges.

- Okay, probably shouldn't be saying this
while you're holding a sharp object,

but I've been thinking
and, um, Pilar has a point.

- Excuse me?

- When it comes to dating,
you do tend to fly off the handle,

and I know that it comes
from a good place, but it's, it's a lot.

- Well, I'm her father.

It's my job to protect her.
She's just a little girl.

- Okay, actually... that's the point.

She isn't a little girl.

Pilar is growing up,
and whether you like it or not,

she's gonna have boyfriends.

We should be thankful that it's Felix.
He's, he's sweet. He's smart.

He's not gonna... push her
into something that she's not ready for.

- He's all right.
- Come on, you like Felix.

- Uhh.

Pilar, come on out!

[door opens]

It's been brought to my attention
that I could've handled this differently.

- Felix wanted to tell
you guys a million times.

I made him keep it a secret

because... I didn't want
you to scare him off.

But it's real. We love each other.

- You love each other?

Ay... what do you say?

- We're okay. But no more secrets.

- No more secrets. I promise.

[knocks on door]

- [whispers] That was great.

- Guys, this is my fault.

Okay? And I, I, I wanna let you know,
I have grounded myself.

And so, any chore you need me
to pick up, nothing's too gross.

- Felix, shut up. They're on board.

This morning you corrected
my pronunciation of the word "croissant."

it is not about the story.

It's about my blazer,

I think you are perfection.

You're smart and beautiful,
