"Ginny, if you don't come out here then..." "Oh my God, he followed her into the ladies' room?" "!" "That's illegal." "And Josh would never do something illegal." "Something's really wrong." "Can you hear what they're saying from the men's room side?" "Let's go see." "Hey there, farmer John." "Ya tending to your garden?" "Wow." "That's weird." "It smells like garlic." "I had Giovanni's for lunch." "And it's putting me in the mood for some Italian." "Is Giovanni's good?" "I'm always on the hunt for a good calzone." " I'm kind of busy here." " I know." "Look, Truly," "I just wanted to say" " I didn't mean to spook you last night." " I don't want to talk about it." "But I need to apologize." "I should've handled it more delicately." "I was dry humping a plumber in the dance studio." "There's nothing delicate about this." "And then I made it worse." "I could have... ( Chuckles )" "What?" "What you just said... that was funny." " So you came by to laugh at me?" " No." "Although there is a touch of comedy to all this, you have to admit." "I mean, last night I spent an hour before going to sleep coming up with one-eyed plumber jokes, and there are tons, but I made you feel bad and I didn't mean to." "Really." "Fine." "Do you at least want to tell me about plumber guy?" "Was last night totally spontaneous or is there a history?" " I really don't want to talk about this." " Why?" "'Cause he only has one eye?" "'Cause otherwise he's pretty cute." "I once slept with a guy who had a peg leg." "He was in the pirate show at Treasure Island." "I thought it was a prop." "It was not a prop." "I don't care about the one-eye thing." "Great." "Because it's good to get out there, grab a little something." "Truly?" "I still love Hubbell." " But he's gone." " I know." "And even before he was gone, he was taken." " I know." " So how long are you going to wait?" "Italian widows wear black the rest of their lives." "Wow." "Sounds slimming." "I feel like I'm cheating." "Is that crazy?" "Put the sharp snippy things down and I'll answer." "Yeah, I suppose enough time has passed." " Definitely." " Maybe." "Definitely." "So are we good?" "Yes." "Good." " Go ahead." " Ah, you're still raw." " It's fine." " We're having a moment." " Last chance." " Okay, so tell me." "What was it like staring longingly into Davis's eye?" "Did he close his?" "Oh, you couldn't tell 'cause yours were closed." "Was there depth perception problems?" "Like, when he went in to kiss you, did he miss?" "I'm dying to know here." "Michelle:" "This one?" "Nope." "Okay." "This one?" "Nope." "Note to self:" "Get own key or lose mind in the process." "Is the dressing room underwater?" "Nope, it's safe." "All dry." " Hey." " Yeah?" " Uh, cute shirt." " Oh, this?" "I just threw it on." " You like it?" " I do, I do like it, especially since it's mine." " No, it's not." " Sasha, that is my shirt." " No, it's not." " That shirt was given to me by Siegfried" " the night their tiger ate Roy." " I don't know what you're talking about." " About the tiger eating Roy or about you wearing my shirt?" " Either one." " Did you take that shirt from my room?" " It's not your shirt." " It has my name in it." " How sixth grade." "Do you write your name in your glitter thongs too?" "Hey, don't gaslight me, lady." "That is my shirt." "Fine." "You want it?" "Take it." "Do I want it?" "Well yeah, I want it 'cause it's mine." "Enjoy." "Rotate from the hip." "Extend the leg." "Boo, have you stopped breathing?" "You're gonna pass out if you stop breathing." "There you go." "More fun with oxygen, right?" "Eyes front, everybody." "Boo, you're not breathing again." "( Exhales )" "What are you doing?" "You're 15 minutes late to class." "Thanks, narc." "Hey!" "( Music stops )" "Dressing room." "Now." "What's with her?" "What happened?" "I don't know." " Hey, did you break your legs?" " What?" "Are those prosthetics you had to carve yourself out of an old dining-room set?" "That's why you're late?" " No." " Then what's your damage, Heather?" " What?" " Boy, if anyone should know that reference it's you." "Stream it, download it, Wikipedia it," "Google "people who steal for no reason whatsoever." Get to know the real you." " Why are you freaking out?" " Because, Winona, you know you can't even be a minute late for class." "Fanny's rule, not mine." " Fanny's not here." " Madame Fanny to you." "And no, she's not here, but her class is, her studio is, and her rules sure as hell are." "But you know all this, don't you?" "You know that this kind of behavior will not fly." "I mean, forget whatever beef you think you have with me, but there are kids here who want to dance... friends of yours." " I don't have a beef with you." " Why are you doing this?" "Why are you forcing me into this role?" "I don't want to be this person, this authority figure." "It's not me." "And now you've got me talking about rules and your behavior, and I look stern and I think I wagged my finger." "Did I wag my finger?" "You made me wag my finger!" "I'm not a disciplinarian." "I'm not a grown-up!" "Well, I don't want to be!" "I'm not here to teach you anything... except ballet." "I am here to teach you ballet." "So you have two minutes to get that hair in a bun and get your butt back to the barre or don't bother coming back to class." "Period!" "Made me say "period." Punk ass kid." "Fifth position." "Battements, front side back, front back fifth, reverse." "Boo, breathe." "Let's go." "( Music playing )" "Thank you." "( Music clicks off )" "Nice work, people." "There may be hope for you yet." "Yo, zippy." " Disturbed much?" " Let's go!" " Fine." " Hey!" " Sorry." "Duck!" " I wish you had a flesh-eating disease." " I do." "It picks me up and drops me off every day." " Let's go." "First I have to get my stuff and talk to everyone I know for hours" " until you shrivel up and die." " You coming too?" " Yes, she's coming too. - 'Cause suddenly I'm wearing a chauffeur's outfit." "For what?" "!" "I'm here." "It's the right day and I'm here!" "Yay me, right?" "!" "Am I right?" "Is it the right day?" "Am I wrong?" " Crap!" " Mom." "Oh, you're here!" "I'm right!" "You are right." "I just have to change and we can go." "Well hurry, I left your brother at either the car wash or the cleaners." "Either way I won't have to bathe him tonight." "I'm on time." "Never happened before." " High five!" " Well, look who's here." " I know, on time!" " Whatever." "Where are my air fries?" "You!" "Really?" "Really?" "Why?" " Why?" "Why?" " Oh, what I'd give for a sentence." " She broke up with him!" " Who broke up with..." " Ginny broke up with Josh!" " What?" "Why?" " Because you told her to!" " I did not tell her to." "After eight years she breaks up with the perfect man!" "She doesn't understand how hard they are to come by!" "She doesn't know that most of them are scum and that when you get one who is faithful and good to you and your mother that you keep him!" " I'm sorry." "Is Ginny okay?" " No, she's not okay." " She just doesn't know it yet." " I don't know what to say." "You don't know what it's like to raise a child alone... what it's like to be a single mother, to be expected to work full-time, how to keep a house together, take out the trash." "He was wonderful." "He was around since second grade." "And he fixed things." "She was always happy and my trash was always taken out." "Didn't have to fix a window or a door and he had a ladder." "I have no ladder." "You know where my ladder is?" "It's at Faye Mendelson's house!" " Mom, stop!" " And if I didn't know from Facebook that Fanny was coming back next week I would pull her out of this school." " You broke up with Josh?" " Yep." "Oh my God!" "( Knocks ) I know!" "I suck!" "I get it!" "It's Nanette." "Can I come in?" " Are you okay?" " I'm the harbinger of evil, but other than that..." "You can't listen to Claire." "She's unstable and her hair never moves." " I can't do this." " Can't do what, honey?" "I can't teach, run a studio, be in charge of things." " Sure you can." " The studio's a mess and it's wet and I didn't even think to call a plumber." "How stupid is that?" "Fanny's going to be so mad when she sees it." "It wasn't your fault." "She'll know that." "Grape juice?" "And like an idiot I tried to be friends with those girls." "I don't know what I was thinking." "I mean, I'm 100 and they're six and now I'm supposed to be their teacher and teach them things." "And you can't teach them things if you're their friend, I guess." " Cookie?" " And Sasha?" "Ugh, I don't know what to do with her." "I'm not a psychiatrist or anything, but I'd say there are some issues at home that need to be dealt with pronto." " Wow." " Pumpkin chocolate chip." "This is the best cookie in the entire world." " She took my shirt, you know." " No." "Really?" "Stole it and lied right to my face." " Do kids do that?" "Lie right to your face?" " Oh yes, all the time." "I couldn't believe it." "I didn't know what to do." "I'm not her mother." "I don't know what she needs." "I'm not anybody's mother." "I couldn't be a mother." "My mother sucked." "She was like a non-mother." "I called her Deb." "That wasn't even her name." "That's just what I called her." "That feels good." "I don't know how to do any of this stuff." "I haven't hung out with kids since I was a kid." "And frankly, I wasn't even that great with them then." "I don't have that kid-friendly gene." "I'm all sharp corners" " and a pool with no cover." " You know those kids love you." " They do?" " Boo talks about you all the time." " You're a big star in my house." " Really?" "Could I have another?" "Ever since the first night you came here, something happened to Boo." "She just walks a little taller." "That certainly isn't because of me." "You are having a much bigger influence on these girls than you think." "Just hang in there." "I forgot how good grape juice was." "Boo!" "Boo, I wanna talk to you." "Sorry." "I didn't know you meant me." "What other Boo is there?" "I just didn't know if you were saying, like, "Boo!"" "Like you were trying to scare someone on your phone or something." "No, I wanted to ask you a question." " Sure." " What's up with Ginny?" "I don't know." "What's up with her?" "Wasn't she, like, married to that Josh guy since kindergarten?" "It wasn't legal or anything, although he did give her his grandmother's ring." " And they've split now, right?" " Looks like it." " What an idiot." " Ginny?" "Josh. 'Cause Ginny's hot." "Yeah, hot." "Mel's probably poisoned me with her, but can you do me a favor?" " Talk me up to her." " Sure." " I could do that." " Thanks." "Yo, she-devil!" "Let's go!" " Hey." " Hi." "Where'd your mom go?" "She had to take a call." "She's in escrow on something." "Oh." "Well, uh..." "Charlie was asking about you." "What do you mean asking about me?" "He was asking about you..." " your availability." " My availability?" "Really?" "You mean, like...?" "Charlie?" "Oh my God." "I never thought of Charlie like that." "He was always just Charlie..." "stinky Charlie." "I mean, I know you thought about him like that, but I never thought about him like that, and he's all grown up now, isn't he?" "I mean, wow." " He was serious?" " Serious as a funeral." "I mean, not that I'd go out with him, but it's just nice to be thought of like that." "It's what Michelle said." "There's this whole world of boys out there, and I've been stuck with just the one." "I was married when I should've been dating around, testing the waters." "I could go out with Charlie, then out with Freddy, then out with Eddie." "I should meet more boys because I made those last two up, but they're out there." "Okay, well, that's it." "I just thought I'd pass it along." " So." " Yeah, thanks." " Yeah." " See ya." "See ya." " Feeling better?" " A lot." "Thanks, Nanette." "And thank you for your magic purse." "Anytime." "Bye, Boo." "( Instrumental music playing )"
