00:27You
00:30It's me
00:32It's me
00:35Mommy
00:36I thought you were one of dad's students
00:38You smell like a
00:40Brewery
00:41I called you like a million times
00:43Where were you?
00:47I was here all night
00:51There is something very unseemly about a woman
00:53neglecting her only daughter
00:55so she can slobber over a married man
00:57who was in all probability just being nice
00:59I think I fucked a man
01:01in the train bathroom
01:02You think?
01:04No, I did
01:06What, willingly?
01:08Basically
01:10Sweetie, what is going on?
01:23It's fine, I wanted to
01:25Were you safe?
01:29Alexis, keep me out
01:30Alexis, keep me out
01:35Such a buckle
01:47Weren't you staying the night?
01:49I, uh
01:50Wasn't feeling up to it
01:53Sid's upstairs
01:55She came home?
01:56She's a mess, John
01:57She thought I was one of your girlfriends
01:59No, she was blind drunk
02:01She and Alexis have split up
02:02She's having a really hard time with all of this
02:05I'll talk to her
02:09Um
02:12I bumped into Lynn and Steve at the Ramsdale
02:14What?
02:16Steve the president of a college?
02:18Mm-hmm
02:18The president and his wife saw you with your date
02:22at the most conspicuous bar in town?
02:24It's a hotel bar
02:25I mean, only tourists go there
02:26It's on Main Street
02:29She wanted a Cosmo
02:30I bent over backwards for you
02:32And you blow it because some 23 year old
02:34wanted to live out her sex in the city fantasy?
02:37She's 28
02:38She's an elementary school teacher
02:40She's kind of a Charlotte, actually
02:42Oh, don't joke with me
02:43I wanted to stay in with you
02:44You told me to go
02:47Now I'm the one who's gonna suffer the most for it
02:49May I be alone?
02:52Please
03:13All right
03:14Mary, you gotta bring your back
03:15So I'll leave this for it
03:16Yeah
03:19Okay
03:20Okay
03:34Hi
03:34Oh my God
03:35Sorry
03:36Sorry
03:36I wanted to ask
03:38I'm applying to this
03:40The creative writing program at Brown
03:43Right
03:43And you need a letter of recommendation
03:46And yes, of course
03:47Oh, thank you
03:49Thank you
03:49I know you have so much going on right now
03:52Oh, oh no
03:53I'm happy to do it
03:54Which sample are you submitting?
03:56Either a desk salad
03:57Or the one about the evil babysitters
04:00Well, you know how much I love those evil babysitters
04:03No
04:04Hi
04:05Oh, hey
04:06See you soon
04:07Okay
04:08How do you like her class?
04:10Professor Tong's class
04:11Not a professor
04:12It's like the highlight of my week
04:14Like she's so down to earth
04:15But also so brilliant
04:17You know what?
04:18And I mean
04:19No one can compare to you
04:21Although I'm ecstatic to know that
04:24Where does it meet?
04:25But this time
04:26But this time
04:27No adverbs
04:28Just try it
04:29She said
04:31Encouragingly
04:33I believe the best way to stop coveting your neighbor's husband
04:37Is to make your neighbor your friend
04:43I'm hearing good things
04:45Oh, all lies
04:47I am sure
04:48Oh
04:48No
04:49The man loves to check in on me
04:51Um
04:54I wanted to see if we could grab a coffee
04:56Fuck
04:57I wish I could
04:58But I have to go meet a student
05:01Yeah, these weekdays are such a blur
05:04Oh, maybe this weekend
05:07I feel like an idiot
05:08But weekends are actually the worst right now
05:11Vlad needs weekends to write
05:13So it's a total childcare blackout for me
05:17Not in a fun way
05:19Well, if Vlad needs to write
05:21Would you and Fi want to come over and swim in our pool this weekend?
05:24Oh, uh, wow
05:27Yeah, Fi
05:27Oh, I'm coming to see you
05:30Fi loves the water
05:31Well, maybe Sunday
05:32I'll grill
05:34I could make you a mocktail
05:36Yeah
05:38Yeah
05:38You're so kind to offer
05:39It's just we have so much to fucking do
05:42We haven't even fully unpacked
05:44So I can't find the towels
05:46Okay
05:47Much less our swimsuits
05:49Well, why don't you think about it
05:52And
05:53God, I am so sorry
05:54But would you excuse me?
06:06White and sweet
06:08Thank you
06:08Just how you like it
06:12I guess you know the hearing is no longer being delayed
06:16Jesus Christ
06:17Lynn was upset
06:19So John can't be seen with anyone who's not his wife?
06:21I mean, think about it, David
06:22It is a little 1984-y
06:24Not really
06:25David's an Orwell scholar
06:27Lynn found it icky
06:29Icky?
06:30The hearing is gonna happen this semester
06:34Thank you for your help
06:36My help
06:36In response to your blackmail over our old emails?
06:39Blackmail is a big word
06:42I did go back and reread them
06:45You did?
06:46They were
06:48Pretty fun
06:50I am fun
06:51But I got rid of them
06:52And I would appreciate it if you did the same
06:56I don't know, mister
07:00I think it's a good idea to have something to hold over you
07:03So you don't misbehave
07:10I scrubbed my inbox of his emails ten years ago
07:16John?
07:17Can you call me?
07:18The hearing is up
07:19Is...
07:20Oh!
07:21Huh
07:22Discovered her greatest departmental amenity
07:26I am not above the pods
07:28Oh
07:31So, what's on the syllabus this week?
07:34Rebecca
07:36You familiar?
07:37Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again
07:41Nice
07:43I love a gothic romance
07:44You know, the fixation, the pining
07:48My wife always says that I have a thing for crazy girls
08:02Well, speaking of Cynthia, could you do me a favor?
08:06I invited her and me over to swim on Sunday
08:08Oh, but I think she's worried about imposing
08:11That's very nice
08:14Yeah, she, um, she finds socializing tricky these days
08:19You know, she's gotta keep it pretty tight
08:21Mmm, mmm, mmm
08:22Well, here's the thing
08:24It'll be the last warm weekend of the year
08:27And the water's perfect
08:28And, and, and we'll feed them
08:30And I, I think it'll be more nourishing than she expects
08:33Yeah, we'll be there
08:34No, no, no, sorry, I just, I, I, I, I just invited her
08:39Oh
08:41Devastating
08:41Oh, oh, no, no, sorry, it's just she said you needed time to write
08:44Please, I know when I'm not wanted
08:47Besides, you cannot get distracted, the world is waiting for your next novel
08:51Yeah, I, I, I don't know about that
08:53Well, I am
08:54Thank you, uh, yeah, I'll talk to her
08:57Wonderful, thank you, um, excuse me, um, oh, God, it's my daughter's partner
09:02I, I, I should take this, um, she's a bisexual woman
09:09Great
09:11I'm very proud
09:15Alexis, hi
09:19Dad, you shouldn't be going in blind
09:21How am I supposed to prepare if I don't have access to the evidence?
09:24You don't?
09:24I sent you the report
09:25You should
09:25Yes, the report, but not the evidence they're using
09:29Sid, you have to understand, this whole thing is a kangaroo court
09:33Can you use the salad spinner?
09:35It ruins the structure
09:37It's a lot of paper towels
09:39Does this look right?
09:41The report is quite extensive
09:43Will you afford it to me?
09:44You don't need to be involved, honey, you have enough going on
09:46I'm literally a lawyer
09:48May I ask why you're not at work?
09:50Uh, no, because I don't want to talk about that
09:53Secrets, yay, I love them, literally
09:55Stop, listen, we're having people over this weekend
09:59Who?
10:00Cynthia and her daughter to swim
10:02Who is she?
10:02She's a new professor
10:03No, she's not a professor
10:05Oh, be sure to tell her that
10:06How old's the daughter?
10:07Three, so cute, you'll love her
10:09Oh, no, I'm not going to be around
10:11You're going back to the city?
10:13No, I'm staying here indefinitely
10:14I just don't want to be around for a play date with a three-year-old
10:17You used to love being around kids
10:19Somehow my wonder dissipated after seeing a buttload of them at Alexis' friends' parties every single weekend
10:24Oh, sweetie
10:27Excuse me
10:29Do you know what's going on with her?
10:31Yes
10:33I do
10:47Who cares?
10:48Who cares?
10:53Me likey
10:55You make the legs so high cut these days
10:58You know, it's been reported that Eva Longoria finally embraced the Brazilian wax because it gave her the ultimate orgasm
11:05What are you trying to say?
11:06Just an offering
11:09What's the story with Sid?
11:11She can tell you
11:12Why can't you?
11:13Because it's her business
11:15She'll tell you when she's ready
11:18Maybe I like your little pubes
11:20I don't want Sid involved in the hearing, do you understand?
11:23I understand
11:24I understand
11:24And I agree
11:25Can you run the filter on the pool?
11:27Oh
11:29I feel like we have other things to deal with rather than entertaining
11:32Cynthia is so interesting, I want to make a new friend
11:36Since when?
11:37You haven't made a friend since 1997
11:39Well now I want to
11:41Why?
11:43It's like a mousy ass woman married to a toxic man
11:46I can't relate at all
11:47Hell yeah
11:48I know this book is misogynist because every book written in 1938 was misogynist
11:53Even one written by a woman
11:55But can't we connect the universality of the story?
12:00Rebecca is about an all-consuming obsession
12:04It's a young woman fixating on her husband's dead wife who's named
12:10Rebecca
12:12It's very relatable
12:14How?
12:16Why you've never googled your lover's ex?
12:20You've never spent time on their Instagram or whatever social media you use
12:26You've never compared yourself to her style, her body
12:30You've never fantasized about knowing about their relationship
12:35How they talk together, their private jokes
12:38How they, dare I say it, made love
12:42Well that's what this story is about
12:44It's about the inescapable pull of your lover's lover
12:49I don't have a lover
12:50Well Lauren, we're gonna have to change that
12:53Hello
12:58Hi
13:00Hi
13:00Hi
13:02Hi
13:02Hi
13:12Hi
13:15Hi
13:17Hi
13:17Hi
13:19Hi
13:26Hi, Erin.
13:33You know, if Dad loses at the college,
13:35there could be a civil suit, and that could affect you.
13:38Oh, my God.
13:39There are 36 pages of forms for me to fill out for this dumb appointment.
13:44I mean, why do they need to know if I have a history of mental illness?
13:47What are you getting done?
13:48I'm just getting waxed.
13:50I thought you couldn't get waxed.
13:52Well, they say it's a new kind, so let's hope for the best.
13:57Oh, sweet pea.
13:59Just a breakup.
14:00I really fucked up.
14:04I cheated.
14:06On Alexis?
14:07With the train man?
14:09No.
14:10Ask Dad what happened.
14:12You tell me.
14:13No, because I don't want you judging me.
14:15I promise I won't judge you.
14:18No.
14:19No, I cheated on Alexis with an intern from work,
14:23and then she got hired, and it got messy,
14:25so I left before anything could happen.
14:27And I hated that job anyway, and I can find a new one in two seconds,
14:30so I just don't want to talk about it any further, okay?
14:32You quit your job?
14:34See, you're judging me.
14:35No, I'm not.
14:35I'm not.
14:36That is such a lie.
14:37Okay, let's go.
14:38Let's go.
14:42You didn't know any of the people.
14:44That's students, right?
14:47It's fancy ladies?
14:49Not personally.
14:51By sight at the most.
14:53Okay, are you sure?
14:54Absolutely.
14:55You didn't have any of them in your classes?
14:57Never.
15:26I had one of them in my classes.
15:38Stop biting your nails.
15:48I wanted to apologize for avoiding you.
15:53I shouldn't have got so angry.
15:56Did you kick my car and call me a bitch?
16:01Sorry.
16:03I was feeling desperate.
16:05It's okay.
16:06What did you want to say?
16:09Oh, um, well, yeah, I'm back, obviously.
16:17Now that everything has come out about John, I was just hoping you and I could, like, repair
16:24our relationship.
16:29Fascinating.
16:32Didn't you join the case?
16:34Yeah.
16:37But that's what I wanted to tell you.
16:39That has nothing to do with you.
16:42Lila, that is exactly what I have been saying all along.
16:46Are you still writing?
16:48Not really.
16:50You should.
16:51I'm sorry things have been so hard.
16:53It never feels good to be 29 and moving back in with your mom.
16:56Mmm.
16:57I bet.
16:59And it's like, how many times can I take her to get the edema fluid drained before she
17:03realizes it's her responsibility?
17:05Yeah.
17:05She thinks that she's doing me some big favor by asking Trevor to move his bogus evasion
17:10in my bedroom.
17:11Lila, I hate to do this, but I have to run.
17:13I wish we could talk all day.
17:15I'm so glad we connected, and I am so glad we're on the same page.
17:19Yeah.
17:22I wanted to say I'm sorry about what happened with John.
17:26Thank you for saying that.
17:28I...
17:31I appreciate you taking some responsibility for your actions.
17:39I have to go.
17:40Oh.
17:47Beautiful.
17:54Stunning.
17:55Huh.
18:12You reach an age when, if you come across a good towel, you don't let it slip away.
18:18Do you sell these?
18:33There is great power in a hand-delivered gift.
18:38Hi.
18:39I just wanted to drop off a little housewarming present.
18:42Hi.
18:42You don't have to talk to me.
18:44I can just hand it over and get on out of here.
18:46Uh, I...
18:47Oh, um, this, this honey is from my bees.
18:52Uh, did you know that honey is as effective as cough syrup for young children?
18:57It's for fee.
18:58Oh.
19:00Oh, my God.
19:02That is so nice of you.
19:03These are, these are gorgeous.
19:04Sorry.
19:07Um...
19:07Did Vlad give you our address?
19:10I got it from the contact sheet.
19:12This is, this is temporary.
19:14It's, um...
19:15It's kind of a shithole.
19:16Oh, no, no.
19:17It's not.
19:18Oh, don't come inside.
19:20Uh, fee is fine.
19:21I just, I got...
19:24Paranoid, cause...
19:25People are weird about colds, and then I was like, what if they're offended?
19:28I'm very difficult to offend.
19:30Me too.
19:31No, um...
19:33God, I'm...
19:34I'm aware I'm being an asshole.
19:36No!
19:37No!
19:37Anyone who'd been through half of what you did would be twice the asshole.
19:42What do you mean?
19:45I...
19:45Just...
19:47Moving...
19:48A young child...
19:52Um...
19:52I'll, uh...
19:54I'll, uh...
19:55I'll leave you alone.
19:57Um...
20:00This may sound crazy, but I think we'd get along.
20:04I...
20:05I do too.
20:07Thank you so much for these.
20:09Okay.
20:11Bye.
20:12Bye.
20:33I wonder what domestic politics went into that text message.
20:37So what's this about?
20:40It's about growing up in Florida with Russian immigrant parents.
20:44So he's a naval gazer.
20:45No.
20:46It's excellent.
20:48I'm out.
20:49Where are you going?
20:50I'm going to see my friend at Cornell.
20:52I think I'm gonna stay the night.
20:53Oh.
20:54What kind of friend?
20:55She's an expert in Title IX.
20:57Sid, I'm serious.
20:58I don't want you involved.
20:59I'm gonna take the Volvo.
21:01Be careful.
21:02Why'd you buy lettuce?
21:03I have a bumper crop.
21:04Because I need it as a wrap.
21:06I thought we were grilling.
21:07The steak is grilled.
21:09What are these for?
21:11A mocktail.
21:12A mocktail?
21:13Ugh.
21:15What's happening here?
21:17It's my stupid wax.
21:19I'm inflamed.
21:20It's fine.
21:21It's what I deserve.
21:24Why do you have this?
21:26It got mixed up in my mail.
21:29Looks like a paycheck.
21:30Yes, I will give it to her when she arrives.
21:33Did you get rid of the deer netting?
21:35We're not hosting a wedding.
21:36It's suburban.
21:45Hey-ho.
21:47Hi.
21:48Hi.
21:49It's you.
21:51We don't go near the water unless Daddy's there, right?
21:54And stay away from the bees.
21:56What bees?
21:57What, you don't keep bees?
21:59No.
22:00Oh.
22:01Is Cynthia not coming?
22:03She has a migraine.
22:05So you'll have to make do with me.
22:07Bee!
22:08Bee!
22:08I told you no running by the pool!
22:14Bee!
22:17Bee!
22:22Bee!
22:23Bee!
22:23Bee!
22:24Bee!
22:25Bee!
22:26Well, I tried.
22:44I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
22:50-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
22:55-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
22:58-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
22:59-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
23:02-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I
23:06I never said I wasn't gonna tell nobody
23:10No, baby
23:14You're very sexy, Vladimir.
23:17God, I know.
23:20How do you come by this physique?
23:22Oh, that's invasive.
23:23It's a nice question.
23:24It's a lovely question.
23:26I don't know, grappling wild beasts?
23:29As you do.
23:30Like wrestling bears.
23:31Exactly.
23:33I go to the gym.
23:34It's like the only thing that I do.
23:38I need the outlet.
23:40Well, it's a healthy outlet.
23:41It sure is.
23:43I'm a simple fellow.
23:44I lift, write, work, eat, fuck.
23:50You wasn't saying that.
23:51John.
23:52It's just a natural progression.
23:54No, but, you know,
23:56who are all those writers who had all that time for hobbies?
24:00Like Hemingway and his bullfights.
24:01Oh, well, Hemingway didn't do bedtime.
24:03That is true.
24:05He did miss out on that.
24:07Oh.
24:12I like your smile.
24:18He's just being nice.
24:23Here you are.
24:26And, cheers.
24:28Cheers.
24:31I have a confession.
24:33You do?
24:35Yeah.
24:37I haven't started reading your book yet.
24:40Oh.
24:44No problem.
24:49Hey.
24:51My wife seems to have come across a piece of Cynthia's mail.
24:56Oh, I meant to give it to you.
24:57I think it landed in my box by mistake.
25:00Yeah, it's probably the only way she'll get it.
25:03Never known that woman to check a mailbox.
25:12I worry about her.
25:14You do?
25:17No, Cynthia was, uh, she was hospitalized after the suicide attempt.
25:23Oh.
25:23Yeah, for six months.
25:25She didn't have a mother, just a nanny and me.
25:32But you're together now.
25:35Yeah.
25:36And she's doing all right.
25:38Yeah, much better.
25:39Thank God.
25:41Yeah.
25:45Cynthia doesn't have a migraine.
25:48Oh.
25:49Yeah, we had a fight.
25:50About me?
25:51Uh, no.
25:53No, I, uh, I did something bad.
25:58I'm being a jerk.
25:59Just forget I said anything.
26:01No, no, no.
26:02What's that thing that people say?
26:06Marriage is hard.
26:08Divorce is hard.
26:10Choose your heart.
26:20Choose your heart.
26:28Can I get rid of you?
26:29Of course.
26:31Oh, sorry.
26:43Here, there we are.
26:44There we are.
26:46Okay.
26:50Here we are.
26:51I'll see you out.
26:55Good night.
