"Previously on "Faking It"..." "Karma and Amy will make up, and soon, you'll be back to being number two." "Karma and I aren't really friends anymore." "It was a thing, but it's so not a big deal." "We're both single again." "Maybe it's our time." "Real friends are there for you when you need them, no matter what." " Have you seen Karma?" " She bolted a while back." "You want to grab coffee sometime?" "And I wrote this one to you after the Fourth of July Lifeguard Luau." "I was really missing you that night." "I'm sorry, is it weird that I wrote you letters all summer that I didn't send?" "I love that you never lost hope that we'd make up." "To be honest, I kind of have like 50 angsty emails in my drafts folder that I wrote you this summer." "Really?" "I'm just as dorky as you are." "Just more environmentally-conscious." "Well, I can't wait to binge-read them all." "Seriously, Amy, my dad's brush with death just made me realize I need to tell my friends and family what they mean to me." "There's only one person in my life who is both." " That's you." " Oh." "I feel the same way." "How touching." "Here we go again." "Lauren..." "I'll leave you two lovebirds alone." "What's her problem?" "Daddy, there is no way I'm driving to Dallas to stay in that pizza box graveyard of an apartment." "You are coming to Austin this weekend, and I'm cleaning you up." "You look like the Unabomber." "Work's just been busy, Showpony." " You know, I..." " Mm-hmm." "We'll discuss Friday." "In your five-star hotel room, over room service." "Can I help you?" "Listen, I know that I have been non-stop Karma for the past few days, and we haven't gotten to hang out, but..." "Sorry to interrupt, girls." "Amy, can I borrow these?" "I need to project a more youthful image if I'm gonna get any right swipes on Hitcher." "I'm competing with 22-year-olds with daddy complexes." "Maybe you should just give up and get fat." "I've thought about it, but I still believe in romance." "And it only takes one date to meet Mr. Right." " Or Mrs. Right." " Whatever." "Can I?" " Yes." " Thank you." "Where was I?" "You were implying that I'm jealous of Karma." "Which I'm not." "I'm just frustrated that you're going back down her rabbit hole." "Mm!" "You know what I mean." "[groans] That's not what happened!" "Her dad's heart attack made us realize that we really need each other." "I get it." "Best friends forever." "[sighs] But I need you too." "Karma's my best friend, but you're my sister." "Former sister." "For now." "You never know." "My mom has been known to recycle an ex." "Her love life is tragic, but sustainable." "Amy, that's brilliant." "I thought it was witty." "We should get our parents back together." "Yeah." "I'm brilliant." "♪ ♪" "I really like you." "Oh, my God, why did I say that?" "And why is my voice getting so high?" "I'm really ruining this moment." "I really like you too." "You're funny, and you're smart, and you care about people." "You're proud to be Jewish." "You're beautiful, and you don't even know it." "If that was a line to get me to sleep with you, it worked." "I want to take this to the next level." " Like, soon." " Rachel?" "Order up!" "Um, but not right now, because I really don't want to get fired." "[flamenco music] [chuckles]" " Muffin?" "Can we talk to you?" " Sure." "I was just planning our weekend of heart-healthy family fun." "Aw." "Would playing "Operation" hit too close to home?" "Wha... is everything okay?" " Oh!" " Oh, honey!" "Don't worry, honey." "Doc says I'm doing great." "Yeah, we just, uh, we have something we need to share." "And I want to hear it." "Because I love you." "Have I told you that lately?" " Oh." " We love you too, honeybee." "But, we've been keeping a secret." "And I think the stress of not living our truth took a toll on your father's heart." "We were gonna wait until you graduated and moved out to tell you, but we've decided we need to live for the now." "I completely agree." "What is it?" "Both:" "We're poly." "Poly..." "Who?" "Oh, polyamorous, sweetheart." "I means we want to date other people." "Both:" "Together." "Well, currently one person in particular." " We're dating a woman." " Mm." "Named Diane." " Diane." " Diane." "But don't you worry, we're not going to introduce you to Diane until you're ready." "We understand it might take a while for you to be okay..." "I'm okay with it!" " Both:" "You are?" " Yeah." "I mean, if this Diane person makes your heart happy, then you have my blessing." " All three of you." " Oh, my." "Diane sounds really nice." "Diane." "Diane." "Diane." "And I don't know why I keep saying "Diane."" " [laughter]" " Well, I am overjoyed." "So, do you want to meet her soon, then?" "[gasps] What about tonight?" "Ah!" "Oh, I would love to meet Diane, but, um... oh, no!" "I..." "I just promised Amy I would hang with her." " Oh." " In fact, I'm late." "So I, uh, have to go." "Um, but, I love you both." "Well, I think we nailed that." "Oh." "Is this top too over-the-top?" "I'm trying it out for Frenemy Frenzy." "A new band name I'm workshopping." "The shirt is great." "The band name?" "Terrible." "How are things with Rachel?" "Seems like you were just waiting for Karma to give you another chance." "Everything happens for a reason." "I would have loved for Karma and me to be together, but it just wasn't God's plan." "Wait, so God gave Karma's dad a heart attack so you'd end up with Rachel?" "I don't know, maybe God just wanted me to have a fresh start." "But what if she had shown up?" "Aren't you just a little bit curious?" "No, I can't be curious." "I'm with Rachel now." "We're "bashert."" "That's Hebrew for we're "meant to be."" "In fact, Shane, tonight, we're taking things to the next level." "We're gonna have sex." "[spits]" "Oh!" "Uh, Rabbi Josh." " Hi, um, you okay?" " Oh, yeah." "I'm still mastering the art of walking and drinking, but... [nervous laughter]" "How is my favorite Bar Mitzvah student?" "And who is this?" "Oh, um, Rabbi Josh?" "This is... this is Shane." "Shalom, and mazel, and all that jazz." "Hah, "all that jazz." I love that." "Love that." "It's a real pleasure to meet you, Shane." "So what you maybe overheard, um..." " I was quoting a TV show..." " Relax." "I'm the cool Rabbi, remember?" "Know what, I want you boys to come over to my place tonight for Shabbat dinner." "We'd love to." "In fact, we'll bring the challah." " Holla!" " Holla!" "[laughter]" "Yeah, okay, I will see you two later tonight." " See you." " Okay." "Why are you suddenly so eager to have dinner with my Rabbi?" "Because the band formerly known as Frenemy Frenzy is looking to break into the Bar Mitzvah circuit." "And Rabbi Josh might just be our in." "Wait, wait, wait." "What about your sex date?" "Well, I'm not meeting up with Rachel until later." "We can just rush through Shabbat." "And get straight to dessert." " Oh!" " Please stop." "I work here." "My mom fell hook, line, and sinker for the fake profile we created." "Mr. Reginald Write, Esq., is about to ask her out on a romantic dancing date to the Austin SwingFest tonight." "Meanwhile, I'll drag Daddy there too." "A little Lindy Hop is sure to rebuild his mojo." "What?" "Superior dancing ability is a part of the Cooper bloodline." "Right, okay, so, when Mr. Wright stands Farrah up, she'll be ready to give up on men..." "Oh, like mother, like daughter." "Very funny... at that moment," "I'll swoop in, bring her inside, she'll see a new-and-improved Bruce..." "And the two of them will fall for each other all over again." "And more importantly, we'll be sisters again." "Two tween Lindsay Lohans ain't got nothing on us." " Oh, no." " Mm-mm." "[phone dings]" "Oh!" "Yes!" "The catfish took the bait." "This challah is heavy." "Did you really need to get the extra large?" "Did you have to stop for a 24-pack of condoms?" "[chuckles] Hey, you remember Boy Scouts." "Always be prepared." "I'm going straight from this dinner to my sex date with..." "Rachel?" "Liam?" "You two have met?" "How do you know my daughter?" " Diane?" " It's true." "My parents are in a thruple with a woman named Diane." "And before you say anything, yes," "I do recognize the irony of this situation happening to a girl who's had two almost-threesomes." "[sighs] Have you told them how you feel about it?" "I can't tell my parents I'm horrified." "My dad had a heart attack because he kept this from me." "This is a... a new one." "[sighs]" "I can't stay home tonight." "I know you're gonna be busy parent-trapping, but can I please tag along?" "I can help." " She can help!" " I am great at schemes." "And it's always nice to have an extra lookout on deck." "[sighs] Fine." "But you'd better not bring any drama tonight." "The stakes are too high." "Don't worry." "I would never." "Right." "Okay." "I got to go build up Daddy's confidence." "When I give you the signal, dump your mother." " I'm on it, Cooper." " Drama?" " I am not Drama." " Karma?" "Molly." "Lucas." "What are you guys doing at SwingFest?" "We sort of misunderstood what kind of SwingFest this was." "Well, you said you can't wait to meet her, and I guess the fates agree." "Honey, this is Diane." " Karma." " Oh." "Yay." "Diane." "[forced laughter]" "You work together?" "Such a coincidence!" "And you two never realized the connection?" " No, it..." " Together:" "Never came up." "Oh." "Oh, Shane, since this is your first Shabbat, my Becca here, she can walk you through it." "She is the star pupil of my Bat Mitzvah class." "Anything for you, Daddy." "I'm gonna check on the brisket." "You're taking Bar Mitzvah classes?" "Your dad's a Rabbi?" "Becca, hey, so," "I'm the front man of this hot new band." "How would you like to be a trendsetter?" "Your Bat Mitzvah could premiere the next big thing in glam rock new wave pop." "My BFF Zannie booked Jessie J." "What's so special about you?" "Oh, just you wait." "By the end of this dinner, you're gonna be obsessed with me." "I was nervous to tell you." "Plus, it's me and a bunch of 12-year-olds." "Aw, I think that's cute." "And I didn't tell you about my dad because guys sometimes put me on a pedestal." "Like, they don't want to defile the Rabbi's daughter." "And sometimes, a girl could use a good defiling." "I promise, I'm not gonna put you on a pedestal." "Unless that's where you want to be defiled." " So, tonight's still on?" " Yeah, of course." "I just don't think we should tell your dad that we're dating just yet." "What?" "Liam!" "I already know you guys are dating." " And I think it's great." " You do?" "I'm the cool Rabbi."
