[woman speaks indistinctly over P.A.]
Honey, leave that alone.
Don't touch that. Smile.
- All right, we good, Mom? - Yes.
He looks good.
Okay, now look right here, buddy.
Right here at this thing, okay?
Now give me that big old fucking...
- [Jack groans] - [mother] Hey.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Uh, just a big old, normal smile, pal.
Just right here, just...
- [mother] That's it, honey. - Just give me a smile up here.
He's not even smiling, you know.
[sighs]
Honey, look at me.
Smile.
That's it. Okay.
Shh. Uh...
Are you kidding me right now?
- Hey, Lina? Hey. - Whoo!
Oh, Jack. [chuckles] Hi.
- You scared me half to death. - Hey, uh...
Are you working here?
Yeah, I-I work here.
Uh, have-have you, have you heard from her?
- Um... Oh. - Or can you...?
I mean, I know, I know you can't.
Uh, you're not supposed to, but, um...
Can you please just tell me where she is?
How she's doing?
If I knew where she was, I would tell you,
which I think Gia knows that,
which is why I really do not know.
Yeah. No, I get it. I...
Lina, I'm just, uh...
I'm going crazy, you know?
It's... [scoffs]
- That's not h-hyperbole. - Yeah.
- Uh... - I know.
- I just, uh... - Yeah, yeah.
I don't know what to... [chuckles]
Aw, you're such a good man.
I'm just a little lost here.
Yeah.
You know, I'm single, and I text back right away.
[Jack chuckles]
Look, um...
What... If I hear from her, the first thing I'm gonna do
is remind her of you
and how sweet your little puppy face is.
- [laughs] - And, uh...
Uh, then I'll give you a call and tell you I spoke to her.
- Really? - Yeah.
- Okay. - [boy] Photo man!
- Photo man! - Okay? Yeah.
- Yeah, just, uh... - Hang in there, okay?
What a sweet...
[Jack stammers]
I mean, Gia, I had to lie to his sweet face
about being in contact with you.
What if you called him right now?
No, it's like two months until the baby's born.
- He'll be fine. - For someone suffering,
two months is a really long time.
- [Gia] Not really. - You know,
you're lucky you have a man that misses you.
What, Aidan still hasn't gotten in touch?
No, but we're always kind of like...
No.
It does kind of feel like things have sort of changed
ever since I brought up the stuff from high school
and...
Changed for him or changed for you?
[smacks lips]
[whispers] I don't know.
Anyway, how's the book?
You have to tell me everything.
Yeah, it's good.
It's really good.
Lina, thank you for keeping my secret.
I'm gonna call you back.
Do call me, though.
- Shit. Shit, shit, shit, shit. - [phone dialing]
[Sloane] Hi, it's Sloane. Leave a message.
- [phone beeps] - Sloane, it's me.
Please fucking call me back.
I'm, like, desperate.
- I-- - [Rody] Hey!
You literally have the power
- to save my life. - Made it!
- Look at you. - Uh, we're going in there.
- This one? Oh. - Yeah.
Yeah, I didn't think you'd actually show up here.
You stopped returning my calls.
No. No, I didn't.
You did.
Still...
God, I thought you were kidding about the whole, um...
You know, the...
The-the word is "pregnant."
Yeah, it's-it's... [laughs] Wow.
Yeah, it's a normal thing people do.
- Yeah, but not you. - Oh, why not me?
'Cause, you know, I always thought your career was, um...
- you know, important to you. - Are you serious?
I'm just saying it's good you're almost done.
- Oh, my God. - Because it will be distracting.
- [scoffs] - And great.
- If I was a fucking dude... - You would not be pregnant.
- [scoffs] - But you're...
you're close, right?
Um, no, no. I still have a few months to go.
- [sighs] - No, not the baby.
I don't care about the baby.
I mean, I care about the baby.
Of course I, you know, care about the...
whatever, but I'm talking about the book.
It's-it's actually almost done?
Yeah. Yes.
You locked down the swinger?
Yes, she's locked down.
She's totally in.
- She's in? - Yes.
Great. Great, because without her...
- Her name is Sloane. - ...without her,
the book is a little depressing.
Because the other one...
Lina.
- Her story... - Uh-huh.
It's, uh... You know, the assault
and then the chasing around the construction dude.
It's, uh, it's beautiful, don't get me wrong,
but, you know, Gia, people don't like to be depressed.
And if you're gonna depress them,
you know, by all means do that,
but then you got to, you got to lift 'em, you know?
You got to, got to lift 'em up, you know?
- Mm-hmm. - It's a roller coaster.
- Yeah. Yes. - You know, you got to...
You got to ride it.
- Yeah. - You got to,
you got to go up and down.
- Mm-hmm. - And you-you have down.
[sighs] Without the swinger,
the book is dead.
And there are absolutely no more extensions.
That's fine. I don't need 'em.
Yeah, you've said that before, and then you do.
So you just, you can't come
asking for more time or more money.
- I won't. - This is it, Gia.
We're good. [laughs] You can chill.
I promise, it's all under control.
- Yeah? - Yes.
- Jesus. - These pastries are really good.
I like a place that's unafraid of gluten, you know?
Oof.
[Will grunts]
Oh, where do you think you're going?
[both laugh]
[Sloane] How do you do this? I'm freezing.
[Will] I'm just tough.
[Sloane] Hmm.
[Will] Yeah, you are. Come here.
- You cold? - You gonna warm me up?
- Little bit. - [chuckles]
Watch it.
Okay, seriously, I got to go.
It's weighing on you.
You're surprised?
Well, yeah. You're my mean girl.
I'm not.
Told you to stop calling me that. I'm not mean.
Baby, I know that.
Okay?
I want what I want. Doesn't mean I don't feel bad about it.
And I know you do.
Well... [clears throat]
Maybe we have a choice to make, you know?
You think we should stop?
Uh, I don't think I can.
- Well, I... - [phone ringing, buzzing]
Sorry.
Hey, love. What-What's up?
What?
What happened? Is she okay?
Uh, no. I'm-I'm... I'm driving.
I'm-I'm... I can, I can be on my way right now.
I'm on my way. Sophie. I got to go.
- Is she o... Is she okay? - I don't know.
Well...
Sloane, call me and let me know. Okay?
- Sophie Ford, please. - Uh, room--
- [Richard] Hey. - Hey.
- Okay, come on. - Tell me she's okay.
Yes. Her leg will be fine.
- It's in a splint right now. - Okay.
Once the swelling goes down, then they'll probably--
Mommy?
[Dyan] Sloane, I am so sorry. Please forgive me.
Forgive you? Wha...? How are you even here?
Sophie planned a... a surprise party for your birthday.
Uh-huh?
And your parents got in last night, and Dyan--
Richard said I could take Sophie to her riding lesson.
- She fell off her horse. - And she was talking to me.
[crying] She was turn... turning to me.
Dyan, it's okay. It's okay.
- It was an accident. - So, her leg is broken?
It's fractured, but she'll need a cast,
but it's-it's not that bad.
On the phone you said maybe a concussion?
They don't think she has one, but we're waiting
for the doctor to do a more thorough examination.
[Stephen] Let's give them a minute, okay?
- We'll get some coffee. Come on. - [Dyan] I--
Come on.
[Dyan cries softly]
[phone ringing, buzzing]
She's been like that since I got here.
Hi, baby. Mommy's here.
You're gonna be okay, my honey bear.
[sniffles]
[quietly] You're gonna be just fine, okay?
She's gonna be all right.
Yeah.
[knocking]
[nurse] Pardon me.
Excuse me. She might have a concussion.
Is it all right that she's asleep?
She was talking, no dilated pupils.
Sleep is good.
Hmm.
But, um, the doctor still needs to come in for her head eval.
Do you have an idea of when that's gonna be--
The doctor will be here within the hour, they said.
I'll go and check and see if I can improve that estimate.
- Thank you. - Thanks.
Maybe you should speak to your mother,
make sure she's okay.
You really want to deprive me of the joy of Dyan's guilt?
- [laughs] - [sniffles]
Okay. I'll go help with the coffee.
No, no. You're right.
You're right. I'll go.
Call me the second the doctor gets in.
- I will. - The second.
I will.
Right.
[inhales deeply]
- [exhales deeply] - [door opens]
[woman] Come on, sweetie.
- Are you stalking me? - [scoffs]
I'm, like, the opposite of stalking you right now.
- I'm here for an appointment. - You called me 15 times.
Because you won't give me an answer about being in the book,
and you're, like, literally ghosting me.
What are you doing here?
My kid got hurt.
- Is she okay? - She will be.
- Oh, my God.
And I've been busy.
No, you know what? Don't. Don't do that.
Don't bullshit a bullshitter. Okay?
We both know you're just busy because you're fucking Will.
- What the fuck? - Yeah.
You're actually probably using me
as a cover story for your husband, hmm?
Impressive, but I can't talk about this here.
Well, I need an answer.
Look, I just... I just need a little more time.
I don't have time.
I'm so... I... Like, you have been dicking me around
for months, and I'm fucking tired of it!
Are you in, or are you out?
You can't keep jerking me around like this.
Okay. Okay. It's okay.
Uh... it's okay.
Come on. Come on.
[Gia sighs]
What is going on with you?
- You don't want to know. - I do, actually.
Tell me.
You clearly need to talk, and who else is gonna listen?
You really want to know?
I, I think, um...
I have lung cancer. [sniffles]
Stage go-fuck-yourself, they think.
But they can't confirm it until I do a contrast MRI,
and I can't do the contrast MRI until the fucking baby's born.
And the father, who I'm not talking to,
keeps leaving me messages that I ask him not to,
saying things like...
"Have faith in miracles, Gia."
[crying] "In goodness."
In, like, a good thing happening to me,
which, you know, would be, like, a fucking first.
Are you here to see the oncologist?
No. I'm supposed to do a sonogram, but I'm not going.
- Gia. - I can't because I love her.
[crying]
I love her so much already,
and I can't see her because I can't bear it.
I can't go.
Come on.
- Come on. - Uh-uh. [sniffles]
Come on, but if you're lying to me about dying
to get me to do your book, swear to God.
I'm not an insane person!
I'm not lying and I'm not fucking going.
- [rapid, rhythmic whooshing] - [nurse] You know the sex?
It's a girl.
It is.
I wanted a girl.
Me, too. [chuckles]
Sophie was my chance to be better than Dyan was with me.
I'll give you a moment.
- Thank you. - My cocky ass thought,
"Of course, I can do that."
[sighs deeply]
Fuck, man.
It's probably for the best, you know?
I'll just end up fucking her up.
She's gonna love you.
And hate you.
Like, a lot sometimes, but mostly love you.

- [laughing] - Incredible, right, Soph?
Thank you so much, Ms. Lily.
Oh, my God. Of course.
- You are an absolute angel. - [Lily laughs]
And I am taking you out for drinks tonight
- to say thank you. - I can't tonight.
Will will kill me, but soon.

Thank you so much.

[Lily laughing]
♪ Drink up ♪
[sea bird squawking]
[Gia sighing]
- You good? - Mm-hmm.
[Sloane laughs]
[Gia] Okay, so let me get this straight.
You are jealous or mad or something
because Lily was up all night
making a magical fairyland for your daughter?
[Sloane] With my husband.
And yet you expect both of them to just be cool with the fact
that you're fucking her boyfriend?
I don't do jealous.
[laughs] Oh, my God.
Yeah, you know what? You seem like you're totally above that.
[Sloane laughs]
Uh, but yes, yes.
It would be great if everybody could just be cool,
you know, and-and not clingy
- or whatever. - Oh. Will?
- I'm addictive. [laughs] - Oh, my God.
How long does this go on? [sniffles]
I don't know. Hmm.
But it feels pretty shitty going behind Richard and Lily's backs.
Yeah, also probably feels a little bit good
on one hand, right?
Right.
I mean, I guess you could always just do it
in front of their faces.
You mean, like invite them both in?
Dude, I'm joking.
- Yeah. - It was a joke.
No, right.
No, right, yeah, no.
Oh, my God.
[chuckles] It's fucked-up, this situation,
I know, but... [sighs]
I am way more fucked-up than you are.
You are not any more fucked-up than anybody else.
- I'm selfish. - Who isn't?
No, I'm so selfish that I left the man who loves me
for no good reason, taking his future child with me.
You wouldn't be the first.
I pulled my mom's oxygen mask off
her last night in the hospital so she would die quicker.
It sounds like you did that so she would suffer less.
Or... or I did it so that I would suffer less.
- Hmm. - It's very easy
to lie to yourself in situations like that.
Hmm. You got mom shit.
[Gia] We all got mama shit.
Listen, I will tell you mine
if you let me you tell yours, quid pro quo.
[Sloane] Do I need a dental dam for that?
Just let me tell your story, who you are.
You really think you know?
Yes. Yes!
You like to be open, you don't like to be tied down.
You-you like to be desired from a lot of different directions.
But it's kind of...
Well...
I like being loved by Lily.
And Will, I think.
Yeah, you love being loved.
Which is different than being possessed.
You know, I hate that shit.
- I know! - You know, growing up,
it was like my mom wanted to control every aspect,
every ounce of me.
Okay, so you have mom shit, too. And love shit.
Let me write about it in all its fucked-up detail.
Would you write that it works out in the end?
That I get everything I want?
I'm tired of stories of women not winning.
[scoffs] Me, too.
- [sighs] - Ready to head back?
No, I think I'm actually gonna hang out here for a while.
- You sure? - Yeah. Do your thing.
All right.
I still don't have an answer.
You're not gonna die on my watch, by the way.
I'm a fucking sorceress. You hear me?
[Often's "Neon Light" playing]
[Lily laughs]
[bartender] There you go, ladies.
- Thank you, thank you. - Thank you.
[singsongy] Happy almost birthday.
Ah.
No, I was saying, it's very sweet of Sophie,
but I am not looking forward to this party with Dyan tomorrow.
So we'll have a birthday do-over, a proper good time.
- Good times are never proper. - Okay.
An improper good time,
- not a Sloane Ford affair. - [laughs]
No Barolo and foie gras.
Just, like, pigs in a blanket and box wine.
- Mmm. - Mmm. It sounds really yummy,
but I wouldn't want to put you out.
Besides, parties usually feel like work.
Okay, well, then we'll just, like, keep it small.
Like, you and me and Richard and Will.
I would really love for you guys
to get to know each other better.
He is so much more fun outside of work.
Seems pretty great.
- Mostly. - [chuckles]
And Richard is great.
- [laughs] - He is. He is.
Okay, so then we'll just do that at my place, and...
Never mind.
- Come on. Don't do that. - [laughing]
Don't do that. What?
Okay, well, nothing.
It's just, I got these, like, amazing mushrooms in Cali.
Mushrooms?
Uh, I mean, I'd have to ask Richard.
You know, 'cause of Sophie.
Right. Right, of course.
I've never done shrooms.
Oh, my God, then we have to do it. I can, like, guide you.
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see.
But you'll have to watch out for Richard.
- What? Why? - [laughs]
He let slip. Um, he was saying what a good time
he had putting together Sophie's room with you, and...
[Lily laughs]
...he thinks you're super attractive.
- [Lily laughs] - It's not a big deal.
You know we're open like that, yeah?
- Yeah. - But it just made me think,
I don't know, like, "Back off, she's mine."
Well... [laughs] Will thinks that you're hot.
- Like, super hot. - Really?
Yeah. He has eyes, but I also think that you're smoking.
Like, it was love at first sight when we met.
[laughs]
So, you guys, like, really, like...
- with other people? [laughs] - [laughing] What is that?
What is this? What? I mean...
I could never do that. I'm such a possessive bitch.
I mean, we're accepting applications,
should you change your mind.
[Lily giggles]
[seabirds squawking]
[Sloane] Mm.
Boop.
[quietly] Happy birthday, Mommy.
[quietly] Hmm. Thank you, honey bear.
Mmm. Come on, mama.
[laughter]
Time for Mommy's birthday circle.
- Oh. - [Richard] Oh. Come on now.
I love you, bear. Thank you for this.
Okay. Do you mind putting the crown on the queen?
- [laughter] - Who, me? Absolutely.
This chocolate queen right "chere."
- [Sloane laughs] - Yes. Oh, good Lord.
Hold on a second. Let me get that for posterity.
Okay, so the rules are,
everyone says something nice about Mom,
what they love or admire about her.
Okay.
[Sophie] First there's an email
from Auntie Helly.
"Your unwavering and occasionally
unfounded confidence is awe-inspiring.
I love everything about you,
B-word."
[Sloane and Stephen laughing]
- Now, why would she send that? - [laughing]
[Sophie] Your turn, Granddad.
[Stephen sighs]
You, my beautiful darling, are...
a dream come true.
An impressive thinker,
a businesswoman.
I couldn't be more proud to call you my favorite daughter.
I'm your only daughter.
- Still. - [laughter]
Your turn, Grandma.
I... admire your commitment
to being yourself,
fully and completely,
and your openness to new experiences
and what life has to offer.
And... even as I worry
that you fly too close to the sun,
I am proud to see you soar.
Just please pack your parachute.
- [laughs] - Thank you, Mom.
Sloane.
I'm in love with, um,
with your dark sense of humor.
[both laugh]
Your grit.
Your inability to accept anything less than the best.
How fierce a mother you are to our daughter.
Uh, the way
you listen to the same album exclusively for months
and don't give a flying "F"
- who else might be tired of it. - [laughter]
How you read the last chapter of books before page one.
- [Sophie] Dad-- - Not done.
How you look in the morning
when you've just opened your eyes
and they're a little crusty
and you think you're at your worst
but, in fact,
you are your most beautiful.
I adore you, baby.
You're magic.
[Sloane sighs]
[Richard chuckles softly]
[Sophie chuckles]
[Stephen] Happy birthday, darling.
- Thank you, Daddy. - [chuckles softly]
- I love you. - I love you.
- Be safe, okay? - Okay.
[Richard] Oh.
- [laughs] - I got him, I got him. [laughs]
- See you in a minute. - [Dyan sniffles]
Um, Mom,
what was that about?
What do you mean?
"Too close to the sun"?
I... think you take chances, Sloane.
Falling into friendships with people
who don't deserve your trust.
Who do you mean?
Sophie told me about Ms. Lily.
And a concerned friend on the Vineyard called and said
that you'd also been spending a great deal of time
with some journalist?
- All right? - White women inspire riots,
Sloane, and foolishness.
And what good could come from that?
- You don't know them. - Neither do you.
[car door closes]
There's always that moment with white women when you think
they're all about giving you the stage, and then,
just when you start to trust them,
they rip it from under your feet,
landing you facedown on the ground.
Mom, could you please just be direct for once?
Don't bring them around your husband.
He's a rare catch.
I'm aware.
Then act like it.
[car horn honks]
Happy birthday.
[phone ringing, buzzing]
[Richard shudders]
It's not the mushrooms.
In fact...
Hmm.
I'm actually interested in the mushrooms.
What? No. Really?
[laughs] Yeah.
And I like that I can still surprise you.
[Sloane laughs]
But what is this setting up to be, with-with... with them?
I mean, I don't know.
Though Lily did say
that she finds you ridiculously attractive
and she has a little crush on you.
That's nice, but it's just a little...
Sloane, you said
you'd be one and done with him, with Will.
It was.
And I'm not saying this is gonna turn into anything,
but if it did... you like her.
I can tell.
And she's open to this?
She wasn't explicit about it, but...
Look, if you're not into it, we can skip it.
You're disappointed.
No. No. I just thought it might be exciting.
- Possibly even enlightening. - Yeah.
But, you know, I know you don't want
to do anything outside of your comfort zone, so--
Well, hey, hey, I'm good. I'm-I'm good.
- And it's your birthday, so-- - It is.
If that's how you want to celebrate...
- Yeah? - Yeah.
- Thank you. - Mm.
- I'll book the sitter. - [chuckles]
[Lily] [singsongy] Hey, hey.
[Richard] [laughing] Hey.
Welcome, welcome, right this way.
- Look at you. What up, Will? - Hey, man.
♪ electronic music ♪
♪
I really, really needed you to call me back.
Will, things have been a little hectic.
Well, Sloane, this is crazy. What are you thinking?
Technically, it was Lily's idea.
- [scoffs] - [laughs]
- Everything's fine. Relax. - It's not.
I did everything I could to get out of this.
Well, not everything because here we are.
It's gonna be great. Trust me.
Yeah, because you're so trustworthy.
[Lily] Okay.
So, as discussed,
I want everyone to think of an intention,
not an objective, an intention.
Maybe start with "show me"
or "teach me" or "help me."
Something that is important to you.
Like, maybe something is keeping you from joy
or helping you find it.
Whatever it is, as long as it's important
and you care about it,
that's the right thing.
This feels like homework.
Well, it'll actually help keep things fun and exciting,
give you a touchstone to return to,
focus your experience.
[chuckles] Okay.
So, everybody close your eyes...
...and say your intention to yourself.
Will, baby, you, too. [chuckles]
[reggae playing]
Okay. Richard,
- you're gonna microdose? - [Richard] Mm-hmm.
[Will] Oh, well, that's a bummer.
Well, I guess, you know, for an emergency, Sophie.
Oh, yeah, of course.
Actually, love, what would really make me happy
for my birthday is seeing you let loose
and have a good time.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
You're the one who's always so concerned
with everybody else, and...
[whispering] I know how excited you are about this.
- Let's switch. - Okay.
- Okay.
I'm in.
All right, your microdose. [laughs]
Oh. It's a big one.
- [laughs] Yeah. - [sniffs]
[Will] Thanks.
[Lily] Okay.
Bottoms up?
[Will] Cheers.
[Lily] Mmm.
[Richard] Mm.
[Lily] The longer you chew, the better.
[Lily laughs]
[Richard] Mmm.
- And now? - [Lily] [laughs] We wait.
For each other's faces to start melting off.
[laughs maniacally]
[laughter]
[Lily] Om...
[Richard] Oh, shit.
I'm starting to feel something.
I wonder if my parents ever did mushrooms.
Well, mine definitely did.
- Definitely. - [Lily laughs]
My mama didn't take a Tylenol without reading the label twice.
Mm.
Dyan was too busy conquering the world.
Mm.
[Will] What did you wish for?
[Lily] Intention, not wish.
Mm-hmm. Yeah.
- [laughs] - Intention.
You first.
[Will] Freedom.
[Lily] What about it?
Why am I so afraid to lose it?
[Lily] Mm.
[laughing]
I wonder what-what Sophie would think
if she found out what we were doing right now.
That her parents were the fucking coolest.
- Yes. - [Lily] Mm-hmm.
- When we have kids? - [Will] Mm-hmm?
They're gonna think we're really cool.
- [laughs] Mm-hmm. - They are.
- I got to get a lighter. - Mm.
Okay. [chuckles] All right.
- I love you. - I know.
[Lily] I love you so much.
I want to have a for-real family with you.
I want to get old and still be shrooming when we're 99.
Honey?
Have you guys...?
I never noticed how green
the color green really is.
[others laughing]
[raucous laughter]
[chuckling] What?
[laughing] Oh, man.
Oh, oh, oh, I'm hot.
Yeah, you are.
[Lily laughs]
[Richard sighs]
This is so heavy.
What?
This shirt. Why is this shirt heavy?
- Is it? - [groaning]
- [sighs] - [Lily laughing]
Ooh. Yes.
- [Lily laughs] - [Richard whoops]
[Richard howling]
Richard. [laughs]
- Uh, you all right? - [laughing]
- Sweetheart. - Wow.
- [Lily] Hey. Hey. - Okay. Easy.
- Easy. - It's okay.
Just expect the unexpected. He's in it now.
[drumming on metallic surface]
[laughing]
You got to try this.
[Richard laughing]
[Richard] That's life-affirming.
It's pretty, just like you.
- Hmm. - [chuckles]
You are...
the only woman I've met I could ever feel envious of.
Me? Oh, my God, no. I, like,
- am so jealous of you. - Please.
I, like, compare myself to you.
I, like, want more of
[laughing] whatever it is that you have.
- And what is that? - [laughing]
We all compare ourselves to each other.
I want to not do that with you.
I want to be real with you.

Baby, I don't have a condom on.
What?
Do you?
Yeah.
What? No.

No, no, this isn't...

You're okay.

No. No. No, it's not.
[Richard] [echoing] Baby, I'm sorry.
Hey, hey, the trip is making it seem
way worse than it is.
Do not fucking touch me right now!
Ooh. What about the rules, Richard?
- Just calm down. - Calm... down?!
Did this motherfucker just tell...?!
Shh, shh, come here.
[Sloane groans, whimpers]
[Will exhales]
[Sloane moaning]
[Will] Just breathe.
Okay.
- Babe, just breathe. - Mm-hmm.
- Okay? - Mm-hmm.
- All right. - Mmm.
Thank you, baby.
[laughs softly] "Baby"?
[laughs] Why'd you call him "baby"?
What the fuck is this?
Have... have y'all been together?
- [laughs] What? - Will?
- No, no. - Don't lie to me.
Are you fucking serious?!
- And you? - I'm sorry.
- Just talk to him. - Oh, my God. [laughs]
Can you just try and keep an open mind, Lily?
Shut up!
- Y'all fucked my boyfriend. - [Richard] Whoa, whoa.
And then you came in here and you fucked me
like you're some kind of friend to me?
Like you're some kind of good guy?
All right, enough.
He is a good guy.
One who just wanted to make his wife happy.
Bitch, please. It all comes back to you.
- Bitch? - What did I ever do to you
except for love you and trust you and be there for you?
You just fucked my husband.
That was convenient.
But you did.
Raw!
That's what the fuck just happened.
[laughing] But you know what? You know, it does...
it doesn't even matter, it doesn't even matter.
You know why?
Because we all wanted this.
Huh?
Am I the only one adult enough to admit that?
To take my ego out of the fucking mix here?
Nobody forced anybody.
Nobody shoved shrooms down anybody else's throat.
And, Lily, give me a fucking break.
This thing between Will and I, it just happened.
Right now.
And it was perfectly fucking fine with you. [chuckles]
[Richard] Lily?
Did you tell Sloane that you had a crush on me?
[Lily] What?
Did you tell my wife that you thought
I was attractive and you had a crush on me?
[Lily] Um...
no.
Did she tell you that?
Yeah. Yeah, she did.
And I'm gonna go ahead and guess that she just casually mentioned
that I said something similar about you.
[Sloane] Come on.
This is a manifestation of our collective desire.
How can you be mad at me
[laughing] for opening the door to what we all wanted?
[Richard] Don't-don't-don't... don't spin this
like it's nothing.
Don't pretend that the fucking ends justify the means.
[Lily] How could you betray me like this?
How could I betray you?
I just met you. He's your fucking partner.
What the fuck you doing? Stop.
[Lily] How many times?
- How many times?! - [Will] I don't... I-I don't...
I don't know.
[Richard] Did you...?
Did you fuck him without telling me about it?
[Lily] [laughs] You know what? I'm done.
Y'all are fucked in the head.
I'm gonna get the fuck out of here.
Hey, look, we're all high as shit, all right?
- You're high. - Just fucking...
- Will you calm-- - ...shut up!
- All right. - Shut up!
You fucking selfish piece of shit.
- Come-come on, come here. - Don't.
[Will] Lily, babe.
Ugh. I could hear your come sloshing around
- as she walked away. - [door closes]
Fuck. [sniffles]
You're acting like she's so fucking... innocent.
[mocking gibberish]
Fucking... [scoffs]
Everyone manipulates, Richard.
Maybe so, Sloane.
But you did it to me.
Me.

- Hi. - Hmm.
[Sloane sighs]
Hmm. Hey.
Hey. I need you to go.
Mm, what?
Before Lily wakes up.
Please. You got to go.
Mm.
Can we... can we talk?
God, now you want to talk?
You're unbelievable.
Will. Will?
Hey, stop. We're not...
we're not doing that.
You don't have a choice anymore.
Okay? I... Fuck, man, I've been trying to...
be a good guy and I've been trying
to get my shit together here,
and... [sighs]
...you came along and you just...
...you made everything worse.

[Gia] "That's what happens when you put a person down,"
Sloane told me.
Sometimes they say,
"I'll give you fuckers exactly what you want.
You want me to be bad?
You want to not love me?
Let me show you how cunning I can be."
Oof, but it hurt so much in her bones.
All she'd ever wanted was to be
a little girl who had been loved.
And it was too late for that.
