You're still perfect.
Fun fact, this is the exact color
I'd like my casket to be, please.
Silver's fine by me.
Been waiting my whole life to fuck me a cougar.
I bet you have.
All right, now don't make me miss my class.
Well, you can be late once in your lifetime.
- Uh-uh. - It's all right.
I need this workout today.
I have a hundred-trillion calls,
followed by lunch with the judge.
I didn't know your mother was on the Vineyard today.
Me, either, until three hours ago.
You know Dyan, she loves an ambush.
- What? - "Dyan."
I got breakfast.
- Love you. - Love you.
That she had sex with other people,
that her husband liked to watch...
that wasn't it.
The first time I saw her,
I understood why she was hated.
Sloane got what she wanted.
And we still don't like it when a woman gets what she wants.
You don't play fair.
It's like we want our mothers to want to fuck us.
You know what I mean?
I do.
Gia.
From the other night at The Atlantic.
- Right. Hi. - Hey.
And this is actually Sloane,
the friend I was telling you about.
Oh, right, the one with the good stories.
It's, uh... it's really nice to meet you.
Yeah.
"The one with the good stories"?
She's working on a research project.
Oh, a research project.
I met her through Nili.
Exactly which of my stories have you been sharing
with weirdo white ladies doing research, Hel?
Do you even know who the fuck she is?
Oh, my God.
Who cares?
You know what, I'm happy you're meeting your mom for lunch.
- You fucking deserve it. - Okay.
- Mm-hmm. - Love you.
Love you.

I'm just dropping this off to a customer up on Squibby.
"Customer"?
Yeah, I built it.

You build boats?
I do.
See you.

- Thank you. - Mm-hmm.
There she is.
We said 12:30.
Doesn't matter now. You're here.
Where is Sophie?
We agreed I wouldn't bring her.
No. We agreed you would.
I-I must have misunderstood.
You look good, darling.
- Do I? - You do.
That suit.
Thanks, Mommy.
Something else to drink, miss?
Riesling, please.
So, you never said why you were here.
Opal's retirement party.
Elegant dinner last evening.
Oh.
Who planned it?
They wanted something less...
unusual than what you do.
They used someone from Boston.
We do traditional.
Of course, sweetheart.
But I will say, it was beautiful.
Mm.
Thank you.
So Opal's retiring.
Does that make you the last one standing?
It does, mm-hmm.
Are you thinking about it?
Retirement?
No.
I'm thinking about the 500 cases on my docket
and the keynote I'm giving at the bar association
luncheon next week.
What if you just didn't show up?
For any of it. Just...
booked a trip to St. Lucia.
Do you remember that trip we took when I was nine, the one...?
I worked harder than you will ever know
to get here.
I'll go when I'm good and damn ready.
I just meant it'd be nice if you had a chance to travel more.
Relax.
Thank you for lunch.
I'm heartbroken to miss Sophie.
If you'd set up in Sag, we wouldn't have to do
these hysterical catchups.
- I know. - Family connections.
Easy commute to the city.
It would've made building the business so much easier.
The business is thriving actually.
I know. Richard said...
And I asked if you wanted me to bring my child,
but you said a restaurant isn't a place...
No. I merely said, at a restaurant, her extra energy...
It's not extra, Mother.
It's just energy.
I'm not being critical, Sloane.
I'm just concerned.
I love her.
And children with her concentration
- issues may need additional... - She doesn't have issues!
She doesn't have issues.
She's your daughter. I'll trust you know what you're doing.
Thank you for your faith in me.
I should go.
Three o'clock ferry.
Love to Richard. Kisses to Sophie.
Fucking cu...
Are you okay?
- Can I help you? - Oh!
No, no, no, no, no, no! Tom Fords!
Oh, no, not the Tom Fords.
Uh, excuse me?
Sir, could I please borrow your wine key?
Thank you.
- Here you go. - Thank you.
Okay, you're amazing.
I see my mother once a year and that's one time too many.
Mm-hmm.
I read a psych book in college
that suggests a lot of mothers are jealous of their daughters.
- Yeah? - That's my hunch with yours.
Because, if you'll forgive me for objectifying you,
you're absurdly gorgeous.
This was very kind of you.
You bet.
Where's the kid?
With your mother.
She just left with her. I thought you knew.
Went for ice cream.
What? No. She said...
She said she'll take the later ferry.
She was always taking a later ferry.
Fucking...
I wish you would've called me.
Please don't take your anger at her out on me.
You're right. I apologize.
- Hey. - Hey.
When's she dropping her off?
I'm meeting her at the dock,
uh, in an hour.
I'll go.
Hey.
You might want to unclench your jaw.
Thank you.
You gonna be okay?
I'll power through.
Yeah, you will.
I love you, sweet pea.
I love you, Grandma.
- Be good. - I'll try.
Uh, don't try...
- Do. - Do, thank you.
All right. Oh, wait.
Next time, ask first.
Forgive my spontaneity.
Bye, love.
How was that?
Did Grandma let you get the ice cream you wanted?
No. We got her favorite.
- Mm. - Butter pecan.
And, Mom, it's amazing.
Also it's "pee-con," not "pee-can."
Did you know you've been saying it wrong your whole life?
No. I was not aware.
Will?
Hi.
Hey.
So this may be a little random.
But now that I know you build boats,
I was thinking...
Yeah?
Do you think you could fix this?
I-I don't know. Let me see.
- I got you. - Okay.
Got it.
I mean, I could, uh, I could try,
but shouldn't you take it to someone who's,
like, an expert on things like this?
I'm asking you.
I'll pay whatever you think is fair.
Is it important to you?
I mean, I don't want to fuck it up.
You won't.
You build big boats. This is just...
a little one.
Yeah, this is...
probably as expensive as my big boat.
Probably "expensive-r."
You know what?
I like a challenge.
Well, okay.
All right.
Hey, Sloane?
Um...
how are you feeling about your flower vendor?
Why?
Mm, I know someone great.
And I think maybe they're more in line
with what you do than who you're using now.
Oh, you've got opinions now?
I-I'm just saying.
If you want to shake things up next season.
You think we should?
Shake things up?
I think you could have more fun.
Reach out if you have any questions.
Okay.
And thanks.
You're welcome.
Whew!
Thought I'd make my girls some breakfast.
Well, that smells amazing.
Eh, figured you'd have an appetite.
Can we watch a movie tonight?
Sure thing, sweetheart.
So I, um...
I found someone to fix the little boat.
Hmm.
Will.
The oyster guy?
He's a woodworker, too.
How do you know that?
I saw him hauling a boat that he built.
- That he built? - Who are you talking to?
Why don't you take it to an expert?
He said he could do it.
And if he fucks it up, we're gonna be upset.
Uh, you were ready to throw it away.
What's the issue?
No issue.
Let's eat. Sophie!
Breakfast, honey.
Actually, um, I need to get going.
I'm auditioning a new flower vendor.
Wow!
Oh, shit. It's you.
- Uh, hi. Yes. - Hi.
It's you. Wild.
Um, uh...
I was referred by Will Attaquin.
Come in, come in, please. Come out to the back.
Want some tea?
- Oh, you're so fucking hired. - Really?
- Really. - Will said not
to get my hopes up because you have a vendor
that you've been using for years, so...
It's time for something new.
Okay, let's celebrate.
Um...
- What? Too early? - For cocktails?
No.
It leans sativa...
in case you got shit to do.
This is smooth.
Home grown right there in that very greenhouse.
Hmm. Nice.
Mm.
It's a strain of White Widow
that I inherited from this old hippie grower down the street.
- White Widow, huh? - What?
You never heard of White Widow before?
No, I've never heard of a White Widow before.
- You got any kids? - Mm, no.
Why, "Mm, no"?
You seem like one of those women
grown to be a mother, like, a great mom.
I mean, is that even possible? Like, a great mom?
Someone? Somewhere? Maybe? I don't know.
My mother, I love her to death.
She is an amazing person, but, like, a terrible mom.
Like, at no point has she ever enjoyed the job.
When I was 16,
and the youngest of three,
I could just tell that she was, like, at her limit
with being a mom, you know,
so, uh, for her 40th birthday,
I offered to emancipate myself and move out,
- and you know what she did? - What?
She fucking thanked me.
That's cold.
And real. I do like real.
I think that's why I'm, like, such a gusher.
Isn't it great when our mothers turn us into better people
just by sending us screaming in the opposite direction?
Your mom seemed impressive.
And so are you.
Hmm.
Well, my mother is impressive.
- What's her sign? - Uh, Scorpio.
- Fuck! - Mm-hmm.
Your mother's a fucking Scorpio?
Yeah, but wait. A Scorpio Phoenix.
What's that?
A person who survives.
My grandmother died in a car accident
when my mother was 17, and she was in the car with her.
- Fuck. - Mm-hmm.
She still manages to build this amazing life.
Like, incredible career, beautiful family.
Raises money to save the rainforest and shit.
Mm. I feel like rich people are,
like, always saving things for themselves.
- At least they're saving them. - Ha.
- "They"? - What?
I don't give a shit about the rainforest.
- I'm sure you don't. - I'm actually a family fuck-up
like you wouldn't believe.
Shut up.
You're like... Anniversary Edition Barbie.
Well, I spend a great deal
of effort on appearances,
and I work obsessively to prove I am not.
All for Mommy?
I want her to know I'm good.
- And it hasn't worked yet? - Not yet.
Well, I think you're a cool-ass chick.
Thank you.
No, thank you.
I'm so stoked to work together.
It's just, like, always awkward
when your partner recommends you for things, so...
You and Will?
Uh, does he live here, too?
Yeah, only when his boat gets too cold.
She wanted Will so badly,
but attached to him was this woman
that Sloane did not want to give a flying fuck about,
but already, somehow, she did.
Fuck!
You can go a little bigger.
Okay, I'll do that on the next one.
- Mom. - That was a long-ass meeting.
Everything okay?
Everything, uh... everything's fine.
Mm?
So, you liked the flowers?
Uh, of course. How could you not?
- Mommy, help us. - Uh, just a minute, baby.
You know, um, these need some water.
Okay.
All the stories
of men who hadn't sewn enough of their fucking oats?
Here is a woman with that problem,
and I thought everyone should hear it.
You did a beautiful job.
I did, didn't I?
Yeah.
I was... I was nervous as hell the whole time.
Shut up. Really?
I don't do nervous.
I have it ready this time.
I was happy to do that.
It was... it was fun.
No. Please.
I insist. Your time is valuable.
No. Really.
So, Lily's going to be great.
Good. Yeah. That's good.
Thanks for the rec.
She seems like a real catch.
Yeah. She is.
Hmm.
You know what? I-I think... I should go.
Okay.
Look, you... you're in something, and I'm in something.
And we're all working together now, so...
Understood.
But...
I'll see you out.
Okay, so, we got the white alba, the Sri Lanka
and the red wild rice.
Actually, let me get back to you on that.
Hey, you.
You, hey.
I saw you, just now,
through the window... with him.
He dropped off the boat, and he did a good job.
No, I'm trying to say that I was wrong.
Clearly, he's into you. My bad.
He is, and he's right there.
If I run, I'm sure I can catch him.
No, no, I'm not... I'm not saying that.
You don't even have to be there if you don't want.
No. These-these are the rules.
That we made and can change.
Baby, baby, I want this.
And if you don't want to see it happen, you don't have to...
No. No. No fucking way.
Why? He's just a guy.
Is he? You hired him to work for us.
He was just in there.
- Working. - Hmm.
What is the big deal?
Babe, listen, it's just,
I don't want him involved. I'm not comfortable.
Okay?
Can you just give me that?
I give you a lot.
But I really want to fuck him.
Just once. That's all.
Listen to you.
Just the tip, just for a second.
One stroke.
One fully executed stroke.
That's all I'm saying.
You're siding with Richard.
I'm siding with reality.
And you're working with his girl?
This shit is messy, Sloane. Let it go.
Promise me you won't fuck him this winter,
when all you locals get up to who-knows-what.
You're on this island for 48 hours right now,
and you're telling me my business?
Promise.
I promise.
Liar.
At least stay away from Will's white girl.
I like her.
You know it's just a matter of time before she shows her crazy.
- She's nice. - Oh, she's nice?
She's nice.
You have lost your mind.
Everything is copacetic.
Mm-hmm. Well, I have a couch
waiting for you in BK when all this shit blows up.
Mm.
No, no, she did.
Sophie once said that to me. "You're the wrong mom for me."
Oh, my God.
They can be total assholes sometimes.
- Sometimes? - Mm.
These are on the house.
What?!
Oh, fuck.
I think she means, "Oh, thank you."
- Mm. - Mm.
He knows that's what I meant.
It's just, I just... I got to prep for this call I have tomorrow.
No. Stay with me. Blow it off.
And not exceed everyone's expectations?
I have heard
that you can be a real fuck-up when you want to be
from a very reliable source.
Cheers.
- Mmm. - Mmm.
- Slippery. - Mm-hmm.
Will only lets me put lemon on his oysters.
It's like, I miss fucking cocktail sauce.
You should have cocktail sauce whenever you damn well want it.
Yeah, right? And you, you should have whatever you want.
I know.
That's what Will and I, like, talk about all the time.
It's, like, why are we working so fucking hard
if not to just do what we want?
When we want.
- Yes. - No harm in that, right?
Mm.
Well, I...
should let you get back... to Will.
I don't even know where he is right now.
He's been, like, hiding out on his boat,
which he does sometimes, but he's just been really weird lately.
Hmm. What's going on?
It's coming up on two years,
this, like, two-year mark.
And I know he's a free spirit and everything,
but, like, I want more than that, so...
You gave him a deadline?
Not, like, a deadline, deadline. I just, like...
If after two years, he's not like, "You're my person,"
then I should probably move on.
Much as it would kill me.
And this week is our anniversary, so I think he's avoiding me.
You're married. You get it.
I do.
I also get not wanting to get married.
You regret it?
I don't do regret.
Wow.
You know, like, I want kids.
Like you said, I was grown to be a mother.
You were.
Look. Forget deadlines.
Just go over there right now
and fuck him on his cold, little boat.
In fact, fuck him twice.
That's what I would do if I were you.
- Is it? - Thank you.
She's paying for me, too.
Hey, now.
What's all this?
I know you were disappointed in, you know, the other thing.
- Yeah? - I thought
we could have some fun tonight. Mmm.
Sophie's on a sleepover.
Who else is coming?
Kira and Isaac.
I'm sorry. You invited them to dinner,
or you invited them as our guests?
We've had a good time with them.
The rule is we agree first.
Well, aren't you tired of the rules?
Stop.
I thought you'd be happy.
I mean, baby, last time, you had more fun with Kira than I did.
Still.
You want me to cancel?
I'll call them right now.
- No. - Mm.
It'll be good. Yeah?
Mm...
Alexa, play "Richard's Get-Down."
Playing "Richard's Get-Down."
You know, you forget how much fun dancing can be
when you're not being ogled in a hot-ass club.
Girl, you and your clubs.
This is the club.
Mm, you're fuckin' right it is.
Oh, yeah. My brother.
- Mm. - Oh, shit.

I could put on another...
Richard, I...
Go!
Fuck. Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck!
I should have listened to my gut.
I didn't even want to do this tonight.
Are you blaming me?
No, I'm not.
But why wouldn't you even consider doing what I wanted?
I can't believe you're...
Because that was such a fucking compromise.
It was.
And you think, what, I don't compromise?
When I'm watching some guy eat you out from behind,
and I gotta close my fucking eyes
and remind myself that I'm... I'm in a loving marriage.
Are you kidding me?
For fuck sake, I want to make you happy.
It's just it's not always so easy.
That's because you don't trust me.
Because you never believe me when I tell you
you come first.
Sometimes I feel like I'm holding onto you
by a thread.
That's weak...
as fuck.
I've, uh...
I've missed you.
Yeah.
It's an even better view than your pool.
Mm, just barely.
Something about this time of year.
It always feels to me like a wedding that ends in a funeral.
Too dark?
No.
No such thing as too dark.
Why don't you come and tell my family that
at Thanks... in about a week,
when the drama returns.
Are you trying not to say the "T" word in front of me?
Maybe.
I mean, you're right. I don't partake.
Lily goes home to see her folks,
but Thanksgiving's not a holiday in my family.
I eat crab legs off of my boat.
Mmm. That sounds perfect.
I'm just saying, leave it to Sloane
to be the party girl her entire life,
and then find a way to get paid for it.
Truth.
Don't look like that, sis. You know it's true.
Except it's not. Daddy?
Oh, leave me out of this. Adult sibling riffs are
out of my jurisdiction.
Sloane was merely pointing out that hard work can
transcend circumstance.
Exactly. As you've done, Richard.
Challenging background, no inheritance,
massive student loans,
and still you've found a way to climb.
I'm very proud to call you my son-in-law.
Thank you, Dyan.
That means a lot coming from you.
But, Mom, you're proving V's point.
Sloane had all the advantages, but it wasn't until Richard
that she got her act together.
That's not true.
I had a whole entire Italian life. Are we forget...
Oh, Italy.
It was barely four years, darling.
And then you found Richard,
and he was the north star to your ghost ship at sea.
Ghost ship. I love that, Dad.
Oh, come on. Come on.
Come on, everybody, let's ease off a little on Sloane.
Gabe, be nice to your sister, she's sensitive.
Hey, Sloane, you mad, man? Shit, I was joking.
You all behaving yourselves down there?
Yes, but can we watch a movie?
I'll go.
No, I've got it.
I want to make sure it's age-appropriate for the twins.
Excuse me.
She should learn how to take a joke.
Sloane, they were mostly just teasing.
Are you kidding me right now?
Okay, what, what...
Could you, uh... Could you give me a minute?
I just need a minute.
- I'm fine. - All right.
I, uh, I promised Sophie some eggnog last night.
We don't have any.
Richard?
Yeah, yeah, okay. Hurry back.
I hope it's not weird I called.
I'm glad that you did.
I've been thinking about you.
I-I can't seem to stop.
I've tried, but...
Is this the White Widow all the boys like?
Oh, fuck.
Okay.
Mmm.
Well...
Handle it.
Are you for real?
Are you?
You mean like this?
Yeah, actually.
Not yet.
Now.
What, did you get lost at the farm stand?
I went for a drive.
Hmm.
I can handle anything except you lying to me.
I'm not lying.
Okay.
I ran into Will.
Nothing happened, and...
and I...
I don't know why I didn't just say that.
The toilet didn't flush all the way, babe.
How long?
Just today.
First time in a long time.
My family, you know. Right?
I'm fine.
One and done. I promise.
Okay.
We're gonna be all right.
As long as we're honest.
