"Previously on Girlfriends' Guide to Divorce..." "There is no book tour." "Barnes  Noble can't sell a book the author doesn't believe in." "I think we should take the place across from the grove." "The kids will love that." " It's $4,500 a month..." " I know." " And between that and the mortgage..." " I know." "My divorce attorney is actually great." "Don't tell her to call Delia." "Mediators are jackals." "They prey on the idea of "a good divorce."" "You know, if I finally got to kiss you now," "I would be the only one that would have to be guilty." "Nate, you are married, and that makes me guilty." "This card was declined too." "You play to hurt, and not just me, Spencer and Eric too." " I'm gonna sue for full custody." " What?" " What's that?" " Dad gave it to me." "He says one day I might even be able to meet her." " It's Jake's Becca." " That is Becca." "I think the kids are gonna love staying at the Paradiso." "Jake told me he signed the lease today." "I was gonna tell you as soon as I came home." "I just want you out today, and I suggest you hire a lawyer, because I have." "I already have." "Oh, [Bleep]..." "Ugar." "Sugar." " Hey." " Dad!" "Mommy just said [Bleep]." " Really?" " No, I did not." "I said "sugar"" "because of the window that you said you would fix." " Mm-hmm." " Lilly, dad's here." "Are we going to your new place now?" "No, we're going to school now, and then tonight, that is when the adventure begins." "Did you get the Xbox hooked up?" "Did I get the Xbox hooked up?" "Does Superman fly?" "Does Spider-man do spider-man-y things?" " Okay." " Yes." "Hey, superhero, seriously, the window." "It almost took my finger off." "You said you'd fix it." "I've been a little busy, you know, moving." "Can we get Lilly please?" "Dad's here." " Just tell me why." " Why what?" "Why your divorce has to ruin my life." "Hey." "Good morning, Sunshine." "She wanted to go to a kickback today with some friends." " A kick-what?" " I don't know." "Okay, well, she can do that any night of the week, but tonight, she's gonna be having fun." "She's gonna be having so much fun that you guys'll wish you had less fun, right?" " Right." " Okay." "Go find your sister." "So what are you doing tonight that's so much fun?" "Hookers and blow, obviously." "Obviously." "Becca Riley's not coming over, if that's what you're asking." "I... well, you know, we just had an agreement, and..." "Yes, I know the rules." "Don't try to buy the kids' affections." "Don't trash the other person." "No meeting significant others till they're actually significant." " I got it." " And what about the window?" "Yeah, you should fix that before you lose a finger." "Oh, my God, I just found a finger." " What a dick move." " Yeah." "Just fix the damn window." "Now, having said that, let me speak to the advantages of power tools." "Don't say anything." "Okay." " Go to Home Depot." " Thank you." "Get a drill." "Use it." "It won't make you a lesbian, and if it did, so much the better." "She is definitely not a lesbian." " We have covered that." " Shh." "Shh." "Shh." "Shh." "Well, I'm just glad that Jake has finally moved out of the house." "I don't have to deal with his snotty little side glances and listen to him chewing his little kashi cereal like a farm animal." "Or the sweet smell of man-gas in the morning." " That's my favorite." " Or the sound of breathing." "Just general breathing." "He's gone." "I'm free." "So what about Nate?" "Married Nate?" "Is he still trying to get with you?" "I think I sufficiently scared him off." "Here's something." "This afternoon," "I shall be dazzling potential client Barry Juck." " Wait." "Juck... producer Juck?" " Mm-hmm." "Might have had sex with him in the photo booth at the Soho." " Terrible movies." "Terrible." " God, his movies are awful." "What is it, Monster Mash?" "Actually, Master Monster Six is coming out." " Master Monster." " Horrible." "Oh, my God." "And then, tears of joy, story time." "What?" "Are you volunteering at school?" "That's... that is a first." "Dan is going for primary custody, so I need to put in some serious face time with the kids, and I'm gonna like it, damn it." "Maybe you will like it." "Have we met?" "Lyla Straley." "No, I like my kids, but I think that might be a genetic trick." "The rest are vermin." "No offense." "None taken." "So check it out." " Thank you." " You're welcome." "Holy high tit job." "Danna Brooks grew a pair." "Dr. Marber." "You say that name one more time, and honestly, knuckle supper." " I know." " No, I can't." "I can't have it." " So high." " I'm just saying." " I can't have it." " I'm just saying." "What are you doing when they're that high?" " Where is Max, by the way?" " I don't know." "I'm texting him now. "Max, where are you?"" "Wait, wait, so what did you end up going with?" "Oh, uh," "I went Star Wars comforter but spider-man sheets." " I like it." " Yeah." "Charlie gets to sleep in the perfect movie he'll never see, Spider-Wars." "The cable is hooked up." "I got the WI-FI hooked up." "I got the Xbox hooked up." "I got power bars for Lilly." "And I got the waffle maker for Charlie." " Oh, panic buy." " You know what?" "They got all that stuff at home..." "At Abby's, okay?" "I want there to be some touchstones, you know?" "The comforts of home." "You make me want to puke!" " Jesus, what the hell is that?" " Are you serious?" "I just can't stand you." "Acting class." "It's a little noisy during the day, quiets down around midnight." "Nick, 36." "Oh, hey, Jake, 31." "How you doing?" "This is Max." " Hey." " Pleasure." "Hey, you two ever looking to score any coke, Cialis, or whatnot, I'm your guy." " Thanks." " Hoo-ah!" "I can't stand here looking at you!" " He seems lovely." " Yeah." "Yeah." "Oh." "Oh, crap." "Oh." "It's Abby." "I told her that I would meet her for coffee after drop-off." "I think I said "might." "Might."" " Just "might be there."" " Answer it, dude." "I don't want to lie to her." "Then don't answer it." " I-I can't ignore her." " Dude, you know what?" "Just stop being a pussy and tell her the truth." "We're friends, and you're not gonna pick sides just 'cause she's your sister." "She'll understand that." "Right, what am I talking about?" "Okay, continue to be a pussy until we figure it out, okay?" "Do you want us to come over later?" "First night without the kids can be a little bit weird." " Oh." " Or a little devastating." "Could be a little devastating." "No, I'm actually looking forward to a little bit of me time." " Are you?" " Yeah." "What does that entail?" "That means I'm gonna go to my book editor, Melissa, and toss around some book ideas, and go home, soak in the tub, drink a glass of wine, get back on the writing horse." "If things go south, I will call you, I promise." " Love you, Abby." " I love you guys." " Keep your phone charged." " Yup, I know." "Whitney." "What's going on?" "Where is everybody?" "I was just about to call you." "They... they moved the Juck meeting to 2:00." " They?" "Who they?" "Who they?" " Delia." "I told her you weren't available until after 3:00." "No, it's okay." "It's okay." " Okay." " Hey." "I'll see you there." "All right, bye-bye." "As you know, associates don't reschedule meetings without clearance from all the partners." "True, but Whales Trump Partners." "Juck needed to move the meeting." " Did he?" " Mm-hmm." "To the one time I had to be at my children's school?" "I know, it is a shame." "But your kids come first." "I get that." "Mm-hmm." "Lyla, can you believe this woman?" "Our fabulous rainmaker." "I mean, come on, Barry Freaking Juck here." "2 million in billables for Loeb  Loeb last year, and he is primed to jump ship because I got him sole custody of his dog in his divorce." " Great work, Delia." " Thank you."

"Okay, so I have this whole weekend carved out." "I just need to figure out which titles you want me to focus on." "Abby, can I... can I be honest here?" " Yeah." " It's not about the titles." "Your book sales are way down." ""Way down." What does that mean?" "On Amazon, you're selling just below Why Cats Paint." "You've lost your street cred in the mommy wars." "I'm sorry, but we think the Girlfriends' Guide franchise is dead." "Dead?" "Uh, Jesus." "Well, this isn't exactly the meeting that I was expecting to have, Melissa." "Missy." "Missy."

"I'll take it." "Jake, what's all that noise in the background?" " Dad, it's your turn." " Okay, I'll be right there." "Max, I did a bad thing." "Charlie and Lilly are bowling with Becca Riley." "Jake, that's nuclear." "You..." "I got to go." "Really?" "Sneaking phone calls?" "A little juvenile, don't you think?" " Only a little." " You finished now?" "Yes." "Jake's got it under control."

"No." "I know, I know, the bushwhack setting's a little aggro." "I get it." " No, no." "No, no, no, no, no." " What?" "Look what Lilly posted on Instagram." "Is that Becca Riley?"

"You got it." "Do you feel better?" "I mean, I-I don't know." "I'm a feminist, and it's not Becca's fault that Jake is a midlife cliche." "Yes, I..." "I do actually feel much better." "You should, because we've empowered her." "We've given her a gift." "I mean, the kid is only 10, and she is, like..." "She's got a little more heft." "She says, "yes, I am." "Yes, I am."" "When Lilly sees it, she's gonna lose her mind." "Oh, my God." "What have I done?" "She's wearing a black halter and black shorts, and she's holding a stake." "No, no, not a meat steak." "No, it has to be season two." "No?" "Okay, thank you anyway." "Bye." "They don't have it." "Oh, my God, I am so high, which was fun, but now is not." "That store on La Brea is closed."

"And then we just happened to run into Becca?" "Okay, she might buy it if you back me up." "Dude, I have to bail myself out here." "I've been caught consorting with the enemy." "The enemy?" "That's ridiculous." "Jake, she's my sister." "And I have to divorce you too?" "I can't afford another lawyer." "Hey, the sitter just texted me." "The kids are waiting up." "We should go."

"Thank you, Phoebe Godmother." "Where would I be without you?" "Well, you'd probably be doing something nasty with that paramedic." "What language is that?" "What?" "Oh, no." "So close." "I think you just need to lie to Llilly." "Just lie to Lilly." "Just tell her that there was a leak, and that the poster got ruined." "Oh." "Um, Omar?" "The Kogi truck stops at the Yogurtland on Hollywood in 10 minutes." " I'm such a terrible mother." " Mm-mm." "I should just check Lilly into "promises" now." "Come on." "We're going to the land of yogurt." "Be of good cheer." "She's never gonna forgive me." "I didn't want to play this card." "What card?" "Delia used to represent the executive producer of Blood Sisters." " They're super tight." " What?" "I'm guessing he can get us a poster." " What?" " I'm s..." "I know." "I'm sorry." " Call Delia." " I'm sorry." "No, please don't make me." "She will own me." "She will hold it over me." "Guilt, duty, obligation." " Please don't make me call." " Lyla." "It's like a wookiee life debt." " You have to." " Please." "I know." "I know." "I realize it's a lot to ask at this late hour, believe me." "I don't want to be asking it, but it's not for me." "Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?" "Think of the bonds of friendship." "Hey, stop, stop, stop." "Obviously, generally speaking, we don't have a bond." "You are incredible." " We don't have a bond." " Delia." "Hi, can you make it happen?" "Really?" "Really?" "Oh, my God, you are our knight in shining Armani." " We love you." "Thank you." "Bye." " Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." " Oh, my God." " She's so great." "She's going to meet us with the poster in 20 minutes." " How does she do that?" " 20 minutes." " How does she do it?" " I don't know." " Thank you so much." " Oh." "I love you." "Why are you thanking her?" "Can you believe this?" "I want..." "I would have killed for a night alone in my house when I was married, and now that I get it, I fell apart." " Of course." " Oh, my God." "Because it's a different kind of alone." "Now you're alone alone." "Is that supposed to make me feel better?" " Did it?" " No." "No." "I think it was, like, eight months into my divorce that I realized maybe I'm not incredibly horny." "Maybe I just sleep with these people on my free nights because I want the company." "That's so crazy, right?" "Yeah." "No, you're incredibly horny, honey." "I know I am." " I am incredibly horny." " Yeah." "I'm horny right now." "Morning, ladies." "Hi." " Hi." " Mwah." " Hi, gorgeous." " Both:" "Mwah." "Oh, Lyla." "You've got a thousand bucks worth of cocaine on your chest, or you're getting it on with Mr. Donut." "Delia, thank you so much for interrupting what was probably an awesome evening." "No problem." "Prince showed up at Downey's party, and you know," "I love the little guy, but he just takes over." "So ready to go." "I have something for you." "Is this what you were looking for?" "Oh, my God, yes." "Oh, my God, thank you so much." "Mwah." "Thank... you have no idea." "Thank you so much." "Never let it be said I do not go the extra mile for a client..." "Or a friend." " Is it in English?" " Thank you, Delia." "Ah." "And so the great poster-capade comes to a close." "Call us if you need anything, all right?" " Bye." " Bye." "Come here." "You are a great mom." "It's all gonna be okay." " Yup." "Thank you." "I know." " Okay." " Bye." " Bye." "[Bleep]." "Oh, what is it?" "How is this all gonna be okay?" " Hi." " Hi, mom." "Oh, hey, hi." " Did you have fun?" " You were right, mom." "Dad's place was super fun." "I bet it was." "Seriously, Jake?" "Look, it's a long story." "It shouldn't be a story." "You said you would tell me before something like this happened." "Well, the kids had a great time, and Lilly was in heaven." "Oh, I bet she was." "She and Becca are in the same peer group." "We had a deal:" "No others until they're significant." "Maybe she is." "Did it ever occur to you that maybe Becca is significant to me?" " Oh." "Oh." " Mom!" "Look, we did have an agreement, and I'm sorry." "Where'd you get this cool lightsaber?" "That's not a lightsaber." "That's mommy's toy." "I thought we weren't gonna introduce the kids to significant others." "I'll just go." "Yeah." "Yeah." "That'd be great." "Mom?" "Yeah?" "What's up?" "Do we have photo paper?" "Yeah, in the office." "Why?" "Look at this great shot." "I'm gonna print it and hang it over my bed." "What about the poster?" "Posters are whatever." "This shows she's my actual friend." "Really?" "My Instagram blew up last night." "It was amazing, mom." "And I got invited to Xander Price's house next weekend." "So you're just gonna trade on Becca Riley's fame so that you can be popular?" "What?" "I'm just saying you don't want people to be friends with you for the wrong reasons." "You're just jealous 'cause she's so pretty and young." "Wow." "Hold on, there." "Dad found someone awesome." "You know why?" "'Cause he's awesome." "So it's too bad you kicked him out, huh?" "But it's not my fault that you're alone and you can't handle it." "I can't believe you did karaoke with Becca Riley." " She's so nice." " That's so awesome." "Trust me, some day Lilly is gonna be like, "ew." "Oh, my dad was ancient when he was going out with Becca Riley."" "I really screwed up with her, Max." "Wait, you're not gonna yell at me and tell me what a crappy brother I am?" "I totally snapped on her about the whole Becca Riley thing." "You know, her being so excited?" "And it's not her fault." "She's a teenager." "It's just Jake's moving on, and I need to learn how to deal with it." "Abs, give yourself a break." "It just really hurt that all of you were out, you know?" "My kids, my brother, all having fun without me." "Abs, I'm just trying to figure out how to navigate here, and no one sent me a map." "I know you and Jake go way back, and you're allowed to have that." "I just need to feel like I have first dibs." "Abby... always." " It's a deal." " Deal?" "Deal." "Don't worry about Becca with the kids, 'cause she is great." "No, no, no." " Yeah, right." " Wow, too soon." "Yup." "Okay." "I can't believe Jake wouldn't fix the window." " Right?" " What a douche?" " So much better." " Uh." " Hi, Abby." " Hi." "Brutus." "Address these things..." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Lyla, have a seat." "Dan?" "Is everything okay?" "Am I in trouble?" "If it is about our luxury bag," "I know, and we've been working on getting him to give it up and have one that is more "locker-friendly.""

"and arbor day and kid's court and snack bar and talent night and the nose-picking Olympics and every other bull[Bleep] holiday that costs me a fortune." "But if you're not gonna tell me it's free, I've got to work, 'cause I'm a working mother with a boatload of mouths to feed." "Is there anything else you'd like to discuss pertaining to my children?" "Don't call me in here again." "Damn it." "Yes?" "I know, I know, I know." "Please tell the Disney people that I'm about to..." "I'm running late." "My morning meeting went long." "Thank you."
