(KIM MOANING)
KIM:
Wait, wait.Two seconds, I'll be right back.
BOTH:
Do you have a condom?No. Crap!
Dude, I've been looking
for that nightie everywhere.
KIM:
Are you sure it's not mine?I've had it forever.
DEENA:
It looks betteron your b*obs anyway.
Thanks.
DEENA:
Who do youhave in there anyway?
I didn't even
hear you come in.
Oh, I'm with that Australian
surfer with the neck tattoos.
Ooh! Checkmate!
What about you?
Who do you have in there?
Uh...
Beet face.
You're having
anonysex with a guy
you met in
the Costco parking lot?
DEENA:
I already told himhe couldn't stay over
'cause I got to get
up early to write.
Oh, totally.
God, where is that stash?
I know it's somewhere.
Oh! Found them!
There's only one left.
How did that happen?
We just bought these!
Dibs!
I'm ovulating!
What?
It's true!
I never work out
on the fifteenth day
of my cycle because
I get pains in my side,
and if you remember correctly, Kim,
I did not work out yesterday.
What? What am I supposed to do?
Raw dog a random?
Don't be a douche nozzle!
(SIGHS)
Pull and pray, baby!
MARC:
All right, Kim, wereyou gonna do me, or what?
(HIP-HOP MUSIC
PLAYING ON RADIO)
(INAUDIBLE)
Three o'clock, dude.
That sleaze weasel's
eyegasming all over your face.
Really?
Yeah.
He I
Hi! Y"
Stoplights, huh?
Yeah. Stoplights.
I love them. (GIGGLES)
So do we.
It's crazy!
Crazy.
I'm Ivan and this
is my friend, Ivan.
Well, hello, lvans.
Hello.
So, we're headed to this little
party up in the hills this evening.
You girls wanna join?
Why don't you
give us the details?
(BABY CRYI NG)
Is it too much to ask
for a date with a guy
other than the one
I gave birth to?
Oh, come on.
Where is my friend who shares
my mutual suffering
of high self-esteem?
KIM:
She smells like milk,puke and diaper ointment.
Oh, hey, Billy, will you come
help me with Max's stroller?
Sure, Kim.
Okay. There you go.
Thank you.
(BILLY GRUNTS)
Hey!
Hey.
I found a job on Craigslist
that pays $150 an hour.
It's called Naked
Human Sushi Platters.
I start tomorrow.
You want the details?
Laura, I love you, but raw fish?
Lefsleave
the Lord out of this.
Oh, God.
Hey! I found a job on Craigslist
that pays $150 an hour.
It's called Naked
Human Sushi Platters.
I start tomorrow.
You want the details?
No, I think I'm good.
Oh, Dr. Katie's on.
DEENA:
Did you sayDr. Katie's on?
Hi, buddy.
As a sexpert, I recommend regular
sex once a week, at least.
If you can't procure sex,
visit your gynecologist,
and he can suggest
certain solutions.
(MAX VOMITS)
Oh! Oh!
BOTH:
Ew!Max, my favorite shirt!
Baby puke is pretty
much just breast milk.
Just hand me the napkins.
I saw Kelly Ripa
eat breast-milk cheese
on LIVE! the other day,
with a pickle on it.
That's disgusting.
It also comes in dolphin,
bear, monkey and worms.
Worms? Ew.
Laura, it is so weirdly hypocritical
that you watch this stuff.
It's like an anorexic
watching Top Chef.
Make fun of me all you want
for being a virgin,
okay, but at least
you'll never hear me say,
"I had sex with some guy last
night and he didn't call me,"
or "I got pregnant again,"
or "I got chlamydia."
Ooh! Snap.
Ask your insurance provider
if they'll cover this-
(VIBRATING)
(ECHOING)
You need it, Kim.
Oh, I really need to
get more sleep.
(WHIRRING)
Hey.
Hey!
I made this for you.
Thank you.
You are saving my life.
Have you seen
the baby monitor?
Uh, yeah, I think
it's in the rotter.
sleep a night'll do to you.
Yeah, here it is. Rotting.
So, tonight is
Marc's night with Max,
which means I have
no morning duty,
which means Mommy is gonna
get hammered tonight. Yeah!
Are you sure
that's safe?
I'll pump and dump and use
my new Milkscreen strips.
They let you know when it's
safe to breast-feed again.
It's the best
invention ever.
Mom of the year
right here yo.
(CELL PHONE BEEPING)
Oh, God. Francesca.
"In addition to
my diuretic pills,
"go by the mall
and pick up something
"young and hip looking for me to
wear to the greyhound party."
(GAGGING)
Will you guys meet me
at the mall later?
Can't,
I have naked sushi.
Yes. And that
woman is hideous.
You shouldn't have
to deal with her.
She has you running
around like a chicken!
I know, but I'm a chicken
with paychecks and benefits.
See you guys later.
Bye.
Bye.
Wait. Breakfast.
Oh, God, thank you.
Thank you. Bye.
Marc, I swear to God, you're the
most unreliable person I know.
Why are you always late?
What do you expect?
I'm driving across town from Venice.
Well, I've got a million things
to do and that's all before work.
So, here's the diaper
bag, his diapers,
bottles, toys,
he should be fine.
What's the matter with you?
(SIGHS)
We need to talk.
Crap! Crap! Laura! Laura!
I got the e-mail
from LA Weekly, man!
I can't read it,
I can't read it.
You have to read it for me,
you have to read it for me.
Sit, sit, sit.
Read, read, read.
(EXHALES)
"Dear Ms. Deena Gold, thank you so
much for your recent submission,
"'A Self Made
Woman's Lifestyle:
"'Separating Yourself
from the B*tches.'
"As you know, we review thousands
of submissions weekly.
"Unfortunately,
we cannot accept..."
(SIGHS) I'm gonna stab
myself in the face.
Please don't.
"However, we think the
excerpt from your book,
"'A Self Made
Woman's Lifestyle:
"'Separating Yourself
from the B*tches..."'
That title is way too long...
However, however.
"Will be the perfect
inaugural headliner
"for our online edition
featuring new voices."
(LAUGHS)
Oh!
Oh, I'm in!
Okay, get up,
I have work to do.
Okay. Here we go.
Marc, I thought we were gonna at
least try to raise the kid together.
It'd be career suicide to turn
down a Hawaiian Tropic pro-tour.
You understand that?
Can we get your scrawl?
Oh, yeah, sure.
BOY:
Thanks, man.Sure.
See? I'm blowing up.
What about when
you come back?
Well, if I come back.
I got things, you know?
I think he's
better off without me.
I'm doing
the right thing here.
I'm ripping it off fast,
like a Band-Aid. Okay?
Peace, all right? Okay.
All right. Be well.
(GURGLING)
(SHUSHING)
KIM:
I feel like a bigslab of hamburger
that's been
mushed into a human.
This was, like,
my one day a week
to feel like
a normal human being.
Now, I'm like, seriously a mom
now, like seven days a week.
That is kind of
how it works.
Well, I know,
but what am I gonna do?
Look, lots of women have been
exactly where you are right now.
You can still have everything
you've always wanted,
and your kid is gonna respect
the hell out of you for it.
Huh?
Let's get a massage.
(MOANING)
I am so getting one of these when
I get my first big paycheck.
I don't care how
nouveau riche it is.
(MAX CRYING)
