um, share the experience, and

I, uh, I really admire that.

-Oh, thank you.

-I'd really love for

you to just watch.

-Great, that's what I'll--

That's what I'll do.

-Totally get me off.

Um.

And, if, at any time, you feel

uncomfortable, then you just

come on out here and, you know,

sit down and chill.

-So, this won't be happening

in this space, then?

It's gonna be somewhere else?

Or is-- is it thi--

Is this where it happens?

You told me she's cute,

but she's cute.

You're cute.

No.

I mean--

whatever you guys normally--

You know.

-Oh, I'm sorry, one

more question.

Sorry, I didn't mean to put

a damper on anything.

-You're not.

I just was, uh, wondering

how long these

sessions usually last.

-Uh, like about an

hour, right Jack?

-Yeah, about an hour.

-Oh, well great.

Good.

Don't have to make

a phone call.

So, I'm good.

I went to Nordstrom's.

I let a very aggressive sales

lady do my makeup.

-Huh.

-OK.

You look like someone else.

Get in bed.

It's brunch.

I told you I was going

to get bagels.

It's fine.

Everyone's having a good time.

-Hi, ladies.

-Hi.

-Did you just wake up?

-Everyone's seeing things

under here.

-Anyone tell you we were

coming here today?

-I totally blanked on it.

-Oh, no.

-I've got to make my leave.

You sure Mason has

growing foods?

-I've got to go set up

for Women and Wine.

-OK.

-Women and Wine is tonight?

-The men are playing poker, and

Logan can go to Meredith's

to be with the boys

if he wants.

-Oh, can McKenna come watch the

girls, just like, sit with

them over at that,

uh, Amanda's?

McKenna!

Do you-- do you-- do you

have plans tonight?

Like, do you want to come hang

out with like, four really

cute girls, do a bunch

of dress up?

It'd be so fun.

-Sure.

-I can do it.

I can, don't worry about it.

I will actually--

you know what?

I'll just call--

-No, no, it's fine.

I had no plans tonight.

-Oh, I love you.

OK, good.

-See you later.

-Can we just do that?

No, it's a great idea.

-Yeah, yeah.

-All right, I'm out of here.

-I don't want McKenna to

sit the girls tonight.

-What?

-I don't want McKenna to

sit the girls tonight.

Could you tell her it's not

gonna work out, or you found

somebody else?

-You want me to tell her?

-Yes.

I don't want to.

-Well, wha--

I don't--

-Just be my friend

and tell her.

-Here you go.

[knocking on door]

Come in.

Jennie called, and Meredith

found someone to watch the

girls, so you're off the

hook for tonight.

-Why?

Honestly Rachel and I were

talking, and, I don't know.

She's just a little

uncomfortable

with the whole thing.

-Rachel is uncomfortable?

-Yeah.

The girls are, um, really

young, you know?

Two of them are in

preschool, so--

-Yeah.

Logan's in preschool.

I babysit him all the time.

Yeah, but just, you know,

other peoples' kids.

-Right.

-Plus, you don't really

know Amanda.

-I've met Amanda.

-Yeah.

She's just, like, super Jewish.

Like, two sets of

plates Jewish.

-OK.

-OK?

-Yeah.

Cool.

I get it.

Um, so I have the night off.

Right?

-Yeah.

Great.

Well, thanks for understanding.

-Totally.

-All right.

See you soon.

-Can you shut the

door, please?

-Look how big you are.

-So you're gonna go with--

what are you doing?

You're in the driver's seat.

Your son is driving

the car, Meredith.

-Good girl.
