- Pay attention, lovelies,

or you won't keep up
with these women.

Jane, our intrepid writer,

did a story about
a congresswoman

and discovered that
everything is political...

- Are you writing about me?
- I swear...

- And politics makes for
strange but sexy bedfellows.

Kat's all virtual reality,

which at times is preferable
to her real reality,

but not all the time.

- Hello.

- And Sutton cheated on Lauren
with Oliver.

- Fashion department.
Uh, Lauren Park's office.

- And got busted.
Bumpy.

- But it's time for me
to move on.

- But okay for the women
of the bold type.

- Where's your room?
- The door.

- Tell me what you want.

I feel invigorated.
Do you feel invigorated?

- Not really.

Oh, you're amazing.

- Oh, thank you.

- Post-orgasm coffee for Jane,

and that is a sleep-deprived
coffee for Sutton.

- What--you already told her?

- Please--she texted me, like,
while it was happening.

- Listen, now that you're having
really good sex,

it's probably worth mentioning
that the walls are very thin.

- Wait, how did it happen?
- I don't know.

I just--I got out of my head,

and, oh, he said,
"Tell me what you want."

- Ooh.
- Is he Batman?

- Shh.
She's getting to the good part.

Go ahead, honey.

- Um...I broke a lamp.

- You broke several lamps.

- Is "lamps" a euphemism?

'Cause I'm gonna need
a lot more details.

Closet?

- I only have five minutes
until Lauren gets here.

- Jacqueline wants
to see me immediately.

Oh, my God.

Do you think she knows?

- She probably heard you.

- Jacqueline,
you wanted to see me?

- Uh, yes, Jane,
come on in and sit down.

Do you know about
The Writers' Room downtown?

They do small seminars
on writing and journalism,

and they're having one tonight
on political reporting,

and you are going.

- Uh, you want me to take
a writing class?

- Let me clarify.

You have been invited
to be on the panel.

It's called "Rising Political
Voices Under 30."

- Wow.
- Your congresswoman piece made

some noise.
Congratulations.

You need to get this
to them right away,

and they need a bio and a photo.

And Jane, let's not use
that selfie as your headshot.

- Of course.

- I'm gonna be there tonight.

- This is amazing.
Jacqueline, thank you so much.

- Jane, I have full confidence
in you--I know you'll do great.

- I'll do my best.

- Oh,
and I'm sending Alex, as well.

He'll do a write-up on you
for the digital site.

- Okay.
Thank you.

- Mm-hmm.

Oh, yes.
So...

- What do you need?
- You to go to the board.

I want to launch
a new vertical: politics.

Both sides of the aisle,
daily updates.

- Wow, that's a lot more
than we usually do.

- It is, but I took
a look at the numbers,

and our political pieces
are gaining a lot of traction.

- Is this you being ahead
of the curve again?

- No.
I'm behind it for once.

Young women want to be
politically engaged,

so let's engage them.

- All right.
I'll float it to the board.

- Great.

- Adena.

- Kat.

- It's good to see you.
- Yeah, you too.

- Is this okay?

I feel bad
interrupting you at work.

- No, it's fine.
It sounds important.

- It is.
Um...

Can we talk privately?

- Yeah, you want to go get
some coffee or something?

Mm?

- I feel a little nervous
about what I need to ask you.

- Ask me anything.

- I've decided to try
and extend my work visa.

- Oh.
That's awesome.

- I feel like
I'm not done here yet.

Coco has to go back to France
for a job, but I want to stay.

Anyway,
the process is a nightmare.

They need all these documents
and character references,

and I was hoping
you could write me one.

- Yeah--yeah, absolutely,
I'd be honored.

- Really?

- Yeah.
- That's such a relief.

I know it's a lot of work.

- No, I mean, it's only
140 characters, right?

- Thank you.
I really think

a letter from "Scarlet"
will help.

- Right.
Yeah, from "Scarlet."

I seriously thought for a second
that Adena was coming here

to tell me
she had feelings for me,

and now I'm writing
a letter of recommendation.

- Hmm.

- Oh, hey, finally.

Details, please.

- Um, table the details.

I need your help picking out
an outfit for my headshot.

- But why do you need
a headshot?

- Because I am appearing
on a panel:

young reporters
with influential voices.

- No way, that's awesome.
- I know.

I'm really excited about it,

and Jacqueline actually
seemed impressed.

- Okay, that is great, babe,
but you are killing me.

You just had your first orgasm.

- Come on.

- I can come back.

Actually, no, I can't.
Uh, Sutton...

- Oh, Lauren needs me?

- Actually, Oliver needs you.

He wants to see you right away.

- Oh, my God.

It's totally about
the fashion job, right?

- "Scarlet."

Oliver?
- Busy.

- You asked to see me.
- Oh, right.

Sorry.
Come in.

I've been working
without an assistant,

which is why you're here.

There are a few
other candidates,

so may the odds be ever
in your favor.

- I'm asking all the applicants
to create a mood board.

I want you to use fashion
to tell me who you are.

- Okay.
I can do that.

- Sutton,
make me feel something.

- Absolutely.

Thank you for considering me.

- You should thank Lauren.

I don't think I've ever heard
her gush about someone before.

It was kind of alarming.

Anyway,
she brought me two names,

actually--yours
and someone else,

but the other girl
has zero fashion experience,

not even a summer job
at the mall.

I mean, who doesn't work
at the mall at some point?

Anyway, I love
that you went to FIT.

- Oh, um, I--
- Obviously, I have

multiple candidates to consider.

You know,
I have favors and such,

but you have an inside track.

- Um, Oliver, the thing is,
actually, I--

- Sorry, I have to go talk
to Jacqueline--bye.

- Bye.

- He thinks I'm the other girl

that Lauren recommended--

the one that went to the
Fashion Institute of Technology.

- Okay, we know what FIT means.

- Well, then you also know
I didn't go there.

Oh, this is bad.

This is good.

- Ooh, that's cute.
I could wear that to the panel.

See?
You're good at this.

You should just
tell him the truth.

- Wait, why?

So he can take her
out of the running?

No, this is not her fault.

- Are you saying I should lie?
- No.

I'm saying you should, you know,

take advantage
of the circumstances.

- Yeah, but he's gonna
find out eventually.

How?

How is he gonna find out?

- He could ask
to see her diploma.

- Seriously?

I never even
picked up my diploma.

For all I know,
I didn't graduate.

Oh, God, what if I never
graduated college?

- That's probably why you have
that recurring anxiety dream.

- Yeah, the one where
I'm the last one on campus,

I'm two credits short,
and they have all those little--

- Oh, my God, can we please not
analyze Kat's dreams right now?

- Totally, yeah.

Let me guess: juice run.

- Yep.
- Does she ever eat solid foods?

- I'm gonna die on this desk.

- Listen,
all you got to do is just,

you know, impress him
with your mood thing.

- No, Jane's right.
I have to tell him.

I mean, I have to tell him.
Right?

- Yes.
- No.

- So...there's three panelists?
- Yes.

Three other panelists,
all political writers,

and it's called "Young Reporters
with Influential Voices."

- Ooh.

- Can you give me
a big smile, please?

- Actually, I want to do a few

where I look
a little more serious.

Do I look like
an influential voice?

I'm sorry.

Will you excuse me
for a second?

- Hi.
- Hi.

- What are you doing here?

Is this for an article?

Actually, don't answer that.

I don't want to know
why you're looking at lotion.

- There's a rumor you guys have
a spa hidden somewhere in here.

I wanted to check it out.

- Is there?
- Mm.

I had fun last night.

Seems like maybe
you had fun too?

- I did.

- Good, 'cause, I mean,

you have admitted in the past

to faking the fun
you were having.

- I had fun.

I had fun twice, actually.

- Okay then.

- So is that why you came here?

To fact check
how much fun I had?

- Mm-hmm, and to invite you
over tonight.

What do you think?

- I wish I could, but actually,
I'm speaking on this panel

at The Writers' Room.

- You're on that
"influential voices" panel?

- Yeah, I am.

- Well, damn, Sloan.
I'll come watch.

- You want to come to my panel?

- Is that not cool?

Isn't it, you know,
open to the public?

- Oh, no, yes, of course it is.

- Then I'll see you there.

Uh, do you mind if I...

- Oh, it's all yours.

- Okay.
Cool.

- Okay, so, according to this,

I have to speak
to Adena's unique skills.

Okay, see, now it makes sense
why she wants me to do it.

"And submit
on official letterhead."

- Sorry, not seeing
the significance here.

- God, it is a dark day

when I'm the most legit person
in someone's life.

- Or she really cares about
the way that you see her.

- You know, I cannot get
a read on her.

- It's a crazy idea, but you
could ask her how she feels.

Or, better yet, use the letter
as an excuse to hang out.

- Sutton Brady,
are you asking me to lie?

- No, definitely not.
- Eh?

- But I am telling you to use
the situation to your advantage.

Tell her that you want
to get the letter right,

but that you have questions,

and then while
you're asking those questions,

say how you feel.

- You know, that's actually
not a bad idea.

- Mm.

- And this looks really good,
by the way.

- Hi, Richard.
Come in.

- So, I reached out to some of
the big movers on the board,

and--you know what?

I'm gonna stand
while you're walking.

- Oh, no, you're fine.
What's up?

- You know how much respect
they all have for you, right?

- Yes...

- "Scarlet" is
the biggest magazine we have.

They're worried
about rocking the boat.

- Maybe they should think
we're the biggest magazine

they have
because we rock the boat.

- I get it, but alienating even
a portion of the core readership

right now is a big risk.

- And it's a risk worth taking.

I also think that
they should trust me.

What are you doing tonight?

- Oh, I don't know.
I was thinking--

- Jane Sloan,
our youngest writer,

is on a panel about
politics in the woke generation.

We're going.

- I look forward to it.

After you.

- Oliver's considering me
for the fashion assistant job.

- That's amazing.
- I know, but he--

- Wait, what did you just say?

- I said he wants somebody
who went to fashion school.

- He would be lucky to have you.

- So was he going before he knew
you were on the panel?

- Nope.

- I feel like this moves you out
of casual sex territory.

- No.

No!
It's pinstripe guy.

- So?

- Now I feel like we should go.
- Uh, yeah.

- I have enough pressure
with Jacqueline going.

- Did you know
that Richard's going?

- Why?

- Jacqueline wants to expand the
magazine's political coverage.

She wants to show him
how woke we are.

- Mm.
Okay.

- Oh, my God.

- This isn't funny.

The magazine's political future
is in my hands,

and the guy who gave me
my first orgasm

is gonna be sitting
in the front row.

What am I gonna do?

- Calm down.

Ordinarily, I'd say
picture the audience naked,

but since that means pinstripe,

Jacqueline, and Richard...

- Don't--don't make her picture
my boyfriend naked.

- Yeah, that's gross.

Not like he's gross.

I'm sure he is...

- Okay, we're good.

- Okay, here's to Jane
and her panel.

- You're gonna be great, kid.

- Yeah, no pressure.

- I really appreciate you
taking this letter so seriously.

I'm touched.

- Yeah, of course.

Just, you know,
I figured it'd be easier

if we just talk in person,
you know...

- No, it's perfect.

I'm not much of a phone person,

and it's a beautiful night.

- Yeah.

So should we get a drink, or...?

Right, you don't drink.

See? I'm learning
more about you already.

- But I do eat.
- Oh, well, that's good.

Uh, let's grab a bite.

I'll Yelp something.

Uh...

- Kat, why don't we just walk,

and if we see something
that looks good,

we can stop?

- Right.

Makes sense.

Very smart.

- Oh, my God.

Sutton, Oliver told me

that Lauren recommended you.

I had no idea
that you also went to FIT.

- Oh, yeah,
it's--small world, right?

- How did I not know that?

I bet we know so many
of the same people.

- I know.
I don't know.

No, I was pretty focused.

I didn't really hang out much.

- Did you ever have
Design with Peterson?

- Yeah, he was...

- Crazy, right?
Always in a weird hat.

- Hat.
The weird hats.

Totally.
Ugh.

Love that guy.

- Really?
- Hmm.

- He made me cry
at least three times.

I thought everyone hated him.

- Well, it was like a love-hate
relationship, you know?

- I don't, but if you can
handle Peterson,

you'll do fine with Oliver.
Good luck.

- Thanks.

Oh, my God.

- Welcome to The Writers' Room.

As you can see, we have
a stellar panel of impressive

and highly acclaimed journalists
for you.

First up, Darren Molina
from the "Boston Blaze."

Darren is most known
for his frontline war reporting

where he blew the lid off
of military misspending,

which resulted in policy changes
all the way up to the Pentagon.

Welcome, Darren.

Next, Peabody Award winner,

renowned writer
for "The Economist,"

Miss Lydia Brooks.

Next to her, Sean Carpenter,

who in addition to
his acclaimed White House

reporting is also getting ready
to release his first book

on digital political activism.

Welcome to you, Sean.

And finally,
from "Scarlet" magazine,

political fashion
commentator Jane Sloan.

So why don't we start
with you, Jane?

Why are you here tonight?

In other words,
why is it important for us

to have this conversation?

- Oh, um...

I'm so glad you asked
that question,

because the answer
could not be more simple.

Young people want to be engaged,

and right now, there's a lot
to be afraid of,

and when you're scared,

you need voices
that you can trust,

and so it's up to us
to be those voices.

- I actually think
that's overly simple.

We're in an age
where the ephemeral nature

of the Internet creates

the need to be
first and loudest,

so trust is actually secondary.

- Okay.
- Wha--

- I'm confiscating this.

All right.
Point taken.

But you know,
work might call, so...

- Oh, this late?

- Yeah.

- Watch.

Listen.

Be in the moment.

All right.

- It's not just about
reporting anymore.

People want to connect and share
an experience, so there's--

- Right, even if that means--

- Hang on.
Just let me finish.

I devoted an entire chapter
in my book to this topic,

and my research has led me

to some really
unexpected conclusions.

People are arguing because
it lets them feel engaged,

and that's what people want
right now--to feel engaged.

- Well, I think we'll end
our conversation on that note,

and I'd like to thank
all my panelists

for being here tonight.

Thank you.

- I should have been
more assertive.

I shouldn't have let him
talk over me.

- Come on,
that's not your fault.

- Yeah, I had a board member

and my boss here
to watch me not say anything.

- Look, I'm sure you did
better than you think.

- Yeah.
Thanks.

- Okay, admit it:

it's nice to like something
without having to "like" it.

I know.

Wait--oh.
What?

So you get to have your phone,
but I don't get to have mine?

- It's my mom.

She's calling from overseas.

Allo.

Allo, Mama.

- Why don't you
speak English, bitch?

- What did you just say?

- I said I think
your towel head friend here

should speak English
or go back where she came from.

- Oh--

- Okay, come on, Kat.
He's not worth it, come on.

- No, no, apologize
to my friend right now.

- Okay.

- Don't touch me,
you dirty little towel head.

- Hey.
- Aah!

What the hell?

You crazy?

- Do we have
a problem here, sir?

- Yeah, yeah, we have a problem.
She just assaulted me.

- Oh, come on.
That is total B.S., no.

He just pushed my friend.

Adena, tell them what happened.

- She punched me.
That's what happened.

- Adena?

- Ma'am, I need you
to step into the car.

- Look, I can get my friend,

and she can tell you
what happened, okay? Just--

- Ma'am.
- Hey.

- Ma'am.
- Excuse me, don't touch me.

Get your hands off me.

Adena!

- "Scarlet" magazine.
Hey, Kat.

No, they're not in yet.

One phone call?

- Kat?

Are you okay?
Do you need anything?

- I'm fine.

Really, I just...
a little embarrassed

that my boss
had to bail me out of jail,

but...fine.

Thank you for coming.

- You're welcome.

- He just--you know, he hated
her so much for no reason,

and...I don't know
what happened.

I just reacted.

- Good morning, Oliver.

- Morning.

- I heard that you're
considering new assistants.

You made a pick yet?

- Not yet.

There are a couple
of internal candidates.

Lauren recommended
her assistant.

- Oh, Sutton Brady.

I did an informational interview
with her the other day.

I was really impressed.

I know that she doesn't have
a fashion degree,

but she's really smart, has been
with the company a long time,

and I think it'd be great

if we ended up
giving her a shot.

- Noted.
- Good.

- Hey, just finished
that article about you.

- Is it two lines?
Because that's all I got in.

- Wow, you're being really hard
on yourself.

The livestream
got great viewership,

and what you did say
was smart and insightful.

- I don't even know
why is was there.

I shouldn't share a stage
with Lydia Brooks.

She won a Peabody Award.

Nobody even knows
who Jane Sloan is.

- Jane Sloan is just
getting started.

There's a reason
you were onstage last night.

People want to hear your voice.

I sent you a draft.
Let me know what you think.

- So...this is it?

- This is it.

- I can really see
the FIT influence.

- You can?

- Sutton, I'm gonna
ask you a question.

Did you really go to FIT?

- Um, no.

And I know that I should
have said something as soon as--

- But you didn't.

In fact, your opening move
in our relationship

was to lie to me.

- I know, I don't know why--

- Neither do I, Sutton.

Thank you.

- So, jail,
and Jacqueline picked you up?

- Yes.
Are we done processing?

- Not even close.

- Why didn't you call us?

- 'Cause Adena took my phone,
and...

"Scarlet" is literally

the only number I know.

- Wait, Adena took your phone?

- Yeah.

She wanted us to be
in the moment together.

Obviously not enough
to stick around

and help me explain
what happened to the cops.

- Sorry, Kat.

You're invited to join me
at Findos tonight,

where I will
most certainly be

drowning my sorrows in alcohol.

- Oh, babe,
I feel so bad about that.

- No, it was my choice
to lie to Oliver.

- Yeah, but it was
my suggestion.

- It was my choice.

- How did Oliver find out?

- I don't know, but he did,

and now he thinks
I'm the kind of person

whose first move is to lie.

- Well, we know
that's not who you are.

- Yeah, we know you
better than anybody.

Better than Oliver.

- Yeah.

- Thanks, munchkins, but I
don't think that's gonna matter.

- Kat, Adena El-Amin
is here for you.

- Okay.

Well, this should be fun.

- I'm very happy you're okay.

I was worried about you.

- Really?
You were worried about me?

Is that why you bolted?

- Kat--
- No.

No, you left me alone,

and I actually ended up
spending the night in jail.

- I-I didn't have
much of a choice.

- Everyone has a choice.

- No.
That is where you're wrong.

You have a choice,

but I'm a Muslim lesbian
living in today's America.

My choices are very limited.

- Okay, so what?

What, do we just stand back
and let them win?

- It's obvious that we...

we just come from
completely different worlds.

Here is your phone back.

I'm really very sorry.

- Lauren Park's office.

- Hey, just wanted to say hi.

- I'm so happy
to hear your voice.

I'm having a terrible day.

- Talk to me.

- I'm not getting the job.
- What do you mean?

An hour ago,
you were the frontrunner.

- What do you mean?

How would you know
I was the frontrunner?

- I ran into Oliver.

- And you talked about me?

- Yeah, I wanted to
put in a good word.

Don't worry--
totally professional.

I just wanted to help.

- Oh, my God.
How could you do that?

That means
I really am screwing up.

- No.
What are you talking about?

All I told him was--

- Whatever, it doesn't matter.
I'm not getting the job.

- Okay, Sutton, back up.
What happened with the job?

- He thought that I went to FIT.
It was a miscommunication.

- No.

I mentioned that you didn't have fashion school experience.

You said--Sutton, I am so sorry.

- No, it's my fault.

And I'm going to
deal with this myself.

- Uh, hi.

- Hello.

- I just wanted to thank you,

and to let you know that the guy
is not going to press charges.

- Well, that's a relief.

- Yeah.

- And how's Adena doing?

- She's good.
Yeah, she's fine.

- Hmm.

Doesn't sound fine.

- You know, I just can't believe
she left me there.

She says
she didn't have a choice,

but everyone has a choice.

- Well, maybe she felt like
she didn't.

You said that she wanted
to extend her visa.

Getting arrested could have
complicated that.

- I mean, we were in the right.

- I wish that's
all that mattered.

But unfortunately, being right
is not always enough.

- Do you think...

do you think she could
have been deported?

- Oh, I think that's
a real possibility.

- Uh, thank you again.

- You're welcome.

- Hey.

- Hey.

- What are you doing?

- I was so close, Jane.

I finally found something
that I really want,

and something that
I'm actually good at.

And you were right.

I can do this.

If I'm gonna go down,
I'm gonna go down swinging.

- So...

I have to show Oliver
who I really am.

- Okay.
But what is all of this?

- Well, that's obviously
my prom dress.

- Oh, obviously.
- You know?

And here is the U2 tank top

that I was wearing
when my mom told me

that she couldn't afford
to send me to college.

- Did you bedazzle it yourself?
- Yeah.

And this is
my high school diary.

- Oh, it's the letter
from your dad.

- Yeah.

I just feel like
if I'm gonna lose this job,

it's gonna be me
who loses this job, you know?

Not some fake FIT girl.

- What?

- I didn't go to FIT.

I'm sorry.

I should have told you.

I went to Penn State,
and I lived at home,

'cause it was the only thing
I could afford.

I have no fashion background
at all.

I never even worked in a mall.

But I've devoured
fashion magazines

since I was a kid,

and I have impeccable taste.

I want this

more than I've wanted anything
in my entire life,

and I would work
my ass off for you.

Here's everything else
you need to know about me.

- Richard, I want to discuss
the political vertical.

- Well, I'm sorry, Jacqueline,

it's just not a battle
you can win.

- Because it's not a battle
I'm gonna fight.

I was recently reminded
of exactly who our readers are,

and they are passionate, they're
excited, they're involved,

and they don't ask
for permission,

so neither am I.

- Jacqueline--
- Tell the boys upstairs

that "Scarlet" magazine

is going to launch
a political vertical.

The first piece is gonna be a
personal account by Kat Edison.

They're gonna love it.

- Sutton, can I speak to you
for a moment?

"If you can't do it
with feeling, don't."

Who said that?

- Patsy Cline.

- Impressive.

You know where I was
when I heard her sing

for the first time?

The back of
my daddy's pickup truck.

I'll deny it to anyone who asks,

so don't even think
of calling "Page Six"...

but underneath
these designer clothes,

I'm small town Oklahoma.

No fancy fashion degree.
No Ivy League college.

- Really?

You hide it so well.

- Hmm.

Maybe a little too well.

I didn't realize that
until I saw your mood board.

You moved me.

It's real, Sutton.

Real is good.

Real is what makes you
who you are.

- So...
what are you saying, exactly?

- You get one lie,
and you spent yours.

Now I need you
to do something for me.

Go tell Lauren
I pushed her assistant.

- Uh, Jacqueline...

I'm really sorry
about the panel.

- Why?

- Well, 'cause
I didn't really say much.

- Well, it doesn't matter
how much you say.

And what you did say
really resonated with people.

Have you checked
your Twitter recently?

- Lydia Brooks quoted me?

- Come with me.
- Oh, my God.

Lydia Brooks quoted me.
- That's great.

This is about me now.

Come on.

- All right, what is it?

- Hey, sorry.

Keep doing what you're doing.

- Wait, are you okay?

- Yeah,
you're making me nervous.

This is weird.

Okay.

- I got the job.

- I told you you'd get it!

- Yeah!

- Hi.
- Hi.

- You feeling better?

- Yeah.
I am.

- Good.
Then maybe you're ready to use

that influential voice
for something else,

like to...
tell me what you want.

- What?

- You sound like Batman
when you do that.

- That's a good thing.
Isn't it?

- Yeah.
It's a good thing.

- Kat?

- I owe you an apology.

You were right.

We are from different worlds.

And...

I really want you
to stay in mine.

So I wrote you a letter.

- Way more than 140 characters.

I wrote about
how uniquely talented you are

and how valuable your art is,

because that's what
Immigration needs to hear.

- That's perfect.

- But what I really wanted
to say...

was...

was just how amazing you are.

You're courageous
and thoughtful and honest,

and you're the only person
I've ever met

who, you know, completely
throws me off my game.

And...I...

I think I really like you.
