All language subtitles for Girlfriends s02e02 Just Say No

Well, thank you, but I can't take all
the credit myself.

My man at Barney's was the one that
recommended the European cut.

The rest of the look I chalk up to good
jeans and yoga aerobics.

William, get over here.

Keep it warm for me.

Were you openly receiving flirtation
from that woman? She started it. And

your job to stop it. You know what's the
most remarkable thing?

Ever since I started scraping my tongue,
all the ladies want to climb aboard

Steamboat Willie.

Well, you need to keep that little
tugboat in your pants because you're

First of all, ocean liners.

Secondly, I can't stop a woman who's
hell -bent on making me her paramour.

William, it's about you and Yvonne for
the rest of your natural life, so don't

let some desperate hoochie with
synthetic breasts come between you.

nothing wrong with synthetic.

You know, both my pillows are synthetic,
and I bury my head in between them

every night.

Really? Oh!

Do you think I'm sexy for sexy's sake or
because I'm engaged sexy?

I wouldn't use the word sexy.

Hot, huh?

William, have you ever lied to your
therapist?

I'm a tad hurt. You just assume I've
been to therapy.

William, you told me a long time ago you
went to therapy. Well, then I'm a tad

hurt you remembered.

But no, I never lied. Never.

Well, the one time.

Five times.

You know, I shouldn't really call
because... Look,

I'm trying to tell you I lied to my
therapist.

You know how he wanted me to break it
off with Tony? Well, I told him I did,

I didn't.

Ooh, that is bad.

I just lied about the traffic on the 101
when I was late.

Hey, Joan, just to remind you, you have
that conference call in ten minutes,

your therapy appointment at one, and
Tony confirmed lunch at two. However,

like to point out that if you just
canceled your lunch with Tony, you

need therapy.

Maya, my friend, my pace, my way. Okay?
Just be back by three because I have my

hair appointment.

Whoa, what hair appointment?

Joan! I keep your entire week at a
glance, and you can't remember my

hair appointment. And don't give me that
you -can't -go look, because that would

be messing with my peace of mind.

Maya, there's no way that I can make it
back here by 3 o 'clock.

Joan, I can't be late for Ronnie. He'll
make Peaches wash my hair, and he's too

rough.

Cancel, Tony. I can't. I promised her
that I'd give her some real estate

Uh... Okay, um...

Call Tony and tell her I'll meet her 15
minutes early and I will cut my session

short. Why does someone have to be here?

Oh, she's got this whole thing about the
phones being covered. I don't know.

Can you believe her?

That's what happens when you make
friends with the help.

Well, I mean, at this point, I shouldn't
be bothered by Maya taking four hours

to get her hair done. I'm really not,
but... No, and you're her boss.

Well... No one's really the boss of
Maya.

Why do you find it so difficult to
confront Maya when just last week you

able to cut Tony out of your life?

Tony committed many grave offenses.

Maya's just a little misdemeanor.

Let's talk about Tony for a minute.

Not to mention, Maya has a lot on her
plate right now. We're talking about

I'm a little more interested in why you
don't want to talk about Maya.

Have you ever... Have you ever given any
thought as to why you would maintain an

unhealthy relationship with Tony for so
long?

Tony is not all bad.

Not according to my notes.

Okay, well then write this down.

Tony is giving.

Half the shoes in my closet are just
because gifts from her. And Tony's able

remain calm in a crisis.

So are sociopaths.

And she's funny.

Narcissistic personalities usually are.

Not narcissistic. You didn't end it with
Tony, did you?

Yes, I did.

It may be residual regret I'm hearing,
but I think you're trying to let me know

you couldn't end it.

Damn, he's good.

I gotta get me a new therapist.

If I told you I broke it off with Tony,
then I broke it off with Tony. Why would

I come here and spend my money to lie to
you? Are you calling me a liar?

Do you think I'm calling you a liar? Why
do you keep answering my questions with

a question?

Okay, so you broke it off. I'm sorry I
doubted you.

Most people take months to accomplish
what you accomplished right off the bat.

Well, I did.

Probably explains why I was at the top
of my class, too.

You might want to write that in your
notes. Oh, don't worry. I'm putting

everything in my notes.

I think I've got my next book here.

We're going to do this until you get it
right.

Oh, hi, Joan. You're home early.

Go.

Time.

No, Vasco. You're going to have to shave
five seconds off of that or we're so

busted. I'm sorry, man, but I have rug
burn on my elbow from my welcome to

America sex.

Okay, but this is the easy drill. What
are you going to do if you walk in the

front door?

I'm pretty late.

How come I can't just tell Joan that I'm
here, huh?

Vasco, it's a process with Joan. You
don't spring things on her, okay?

You've had a week to tell her I'm
coming.

What have you been doing?

Avoiding her.

Okay, technically, I'm not supposed to
be living here either.

So let's try this again.

Look, I can't do this.

If four Jamaicans can race a bobsled,
you can make it out of this room in

seconds.

Thank you.

I went ahead and ordered.

Oh, good. What'd you get me?

Nothing. I didn't know if you were going
to show up. Oh, that's okay. We'll

share.

Anyway, you wanted to know if I had any
leads, and... Oh, here's one.

The Beisels.

She just got pregnant, and he got a big
promotion, so they're going to need a

bigger house. It's tricky, though,
because he's Cape Cod, and she's

Mediterranean. So I'll sell them a flat
board with an olive tree.

I'm Tony Childs. I specialize in
results.

Oh,

I saw you admiring the Norman Smitherman
good sex the other day. So I got us a

pair.

Tony, you don't have the money for
these. Take them back.

Both pairs.

Do you see the cute for quitter on my
forehead?

I'm Tony Childs. I know, and you
specialize in results.

No, I'm Tony Childs. I've never returned
a pair of shoes in my life.

Can we just go get a hot dog on a stick?

Where do I know you from?

The Wilshire Philatelist Society?

No.

I know.

Gold's Gym.

Every morning, 6 .30, elliptical
machine.

And always in some nice pair of bike
shorts.

I picked them up from a cheap little
outlet in the valley.

I find they don't chafe.

I'll have to check it out.

Or better yet, maybe you could show me
where it is.

The chafing, it's cleared up. That's the
magic of the shorts.

Um, excuse me. William,

this is the part where you get your mind
out of your shorts and you tell her

that you're engaged. We're just having a
conversation. Then the conversation

should be, I'm engaged. Scat, be gone.
You have no power here.

She's right.

Although I'm flattered by your
attention, I am engaged.

We happen to see each other on the
street or in the gym or in my dreams.

We should just nod and move on.

You're lost. I was hoping you could spot
me on my mattress.

Did you hear that? Did you hear that? I
heard that. You ought to be glad that I

saved you from that hoochie. Saved me
from what? Feeling good about myself?

It was just a little harmless flirting.

William, when you're engaged, there's no
such thing as harmless flirting.

Harmless flirting leads to her butt
naked. Butt naked leads to you being her

baby daddy. Baby daddy leads to
another...

which leads to yet another incident of
black -on -black -on, because you know

Yvonne will kill you.

Really? Buck naked, do you think?

Hi.

Well, hello, Joan.

You eat here, too?

Sometimes. Hi.

I'm Tony Childs.

I know so many Tonys.

many of you, Tony.

Enjoy your meal.

Thank you. You too.

Say, you want to split some green tea
ice cream?

Who is he?

And how many Tonys do you know?

Oh, God.

Well, let's see. I mean, there's Tony,
my neighbor, and then there's Tony, the

florist assistant, and then there's
always the R &B sensation, Tony, Tony,

Okay.

He's my therapist.

Therapist? Do you mean physical
therapist, or do you have issues?

Why? You.

No, really, why?

You.

You have to admit, Tony, we've been
going through some things.

If you have issues with me, you need to
be talking to me, not about me.

I don't need to talk to anyone about you
except you. Tony, look, I... No, you

look. We're best friends. You know what?
No, we're beyond friends. We're more

like sisters.

And maybe it's been a little rocky
lately, but we got through it.

We always get through it.

We're here, aren't we? Yeah, I know
we're here, but I don't... I don't know

we should be.

Or should we be? I don't know.

I mean, maybe we just need some distance
or some time.

Some space to figure this out. Figure
what out?

Our friendship.

What has that shrink been saying about
me?

I can't tell you that.

All right, then what have you been
telling him about me? I can't tell you

either. Well, isn't that convenient?

Of course, before, I think this man is
creating issues.

Convincing you there's a problem between
us?

He'll keep coming back.

That's not what he's doing, Tony.

Oh, no?

Then what is he doing?

Do I need to go over there and ask him?
No, no, no, don't do that. Look, I'm

just trying to figure... There's nothing
to figure out.

It's you and me.

There's no he and you and me.

Get rid of him.

I don't think he's going to want to see
me anymore anyway.

No, Joan, that's passive. You need to
take responsibility and get that poison

out of our lives.

Don't you want things back to normal?

You know what?

You're right.

I should be talking to you.

I mean, I hear what you're saying about
the whole sister thing. I mean, sisters

manage to get through it. Right. You
know, like the other day when you

apologized. I mean, I know how hard that
was for you.

I know.

And I did it in front of everybody.

Because I love you, Joan.

I love you too, Tony.

I'm sorry.

Now, let's get that green tea ice cream.

Joan.

You're never going to make any progress
if you come in here and tell me what you

think I want to hear.

Is this a pattern with you?

No, I wouldn't call it a pattern per se.

Let me tell you what I observe.

You can't confront Maya.

You let this other friend of yours live
in your house for how long?

And you told me you broke it off with
Tony because you thought that's what I

wanted to hear.

There's more.

I told Tony I wouldn't see you anymore.

Let me repeat the question.

Is telling people what you think they
want to hear a pattern for you?

What do

you want from Tony?

I know I don't want her out of my life.

That's clear. What else?

I want her to stop hurting me.

blaming me for her breakup with Greg and
take responsibility and stop leaving me

holding all the pieces.

Then you need to change the nature of
your relationship.

You keep telling me you want me to do
things but you never tell me how.

How do I keep these people from walking
all over me?

Learn to say no.

No.

Are you practicing or are you saying you
can't say no?

If I say no, then they're going to hate
me.

Until you can learn to say no, you're
lying to yourself, Joan.

Can we stop a little early today?

No.

See how easy that is?

She's some guy. It's Roscoe.

Good to see you again, Joan.

Roscoe, get up off the ground. We're
busted.

Why didn't you tell me he was coming?

He was flying standby, and I didn't want
to jinx it.

Okay.

Okay, so, um, you're okay with him
staying here? Whatever. Just turn it.

She cool, man.

We just told her the truth from the
beginning.

Yeah, and she's a deep sleeper, so let's
wait about ten minutes, and then we

will christen the sofa.

Just a minute.

How long has this man been in my house?

He has a name, Bosco, and he's been here
a week.

know you but i do not good enough look
you can stay but he can't but joan all

need is two months till i get approval
on the research grant i applied for

remember it comes with housing and
stipend lynn do you honestly think

gonna get the first grant you ever
applied for okay you're gonna make a bad

mommy whatever okay fine if he can't
stay then i'm leaving too okay

Hey, Joan, I'm glad I caught you.

You're going to have to take that phone
conference call alone, because Yvonne's

having a ladies' day, and I'm going to
get her some Krispy Kremes.

No, I'm not taking the conference call
alone, and I'm not rescheduling. No.

Uh, William, this is where you need to
tail Yvonne to find some Krispy Kremes

that deliver.

And, uh, Maya?

You need to find a hair salon that's
going to take you after work is over.

Uh, Jo, my after work time belongs to
Darnell and Jabari.

Well then, Maya, maybe you should teach
them to do your hair.

Joan, it's tripping. I can't just change
salons all willy -nilly.

I have a history with my stylist,
Ronnie.

Is my kitchen inside out?

You mean the kitchens? Are they
absolutely necessary?

No bathroom thing's really overrated.
All you really need is a bush and a

Damn, Lynn, you sound like you're
homeless.

I am.

Oh, that's right. My bad.

Look, Maya.

It's this Nancy Reagan herself.

Let me just say no.

You're lucky I let you in the bellhop
erect that shanty.

It's a tent.

One more word and I'll revoke your
backyard privileges.

She can't stop my freedom of speech.

You know, but isn't it funny, Lynn?

Just nod.

That she can get all firm and righteous
with us, but she can't bring herself to

tell Tony that she's still seeing that
therapist.

Oh, she stopped seeing that therapist.

Oh, really, Joe?

I guess I'll just have to cancel those
four appointments I made this morning.

You lied to me?

Yes, I did.

I lie to everybody.

I'm a liar.

I just lost my appetite. That tends to
happen when I've been betrayed.

Good. Don't eat. I don't care. I'm
seeing Dr. Bales, and that's all there

it. If you keep seeing him, we can't be
friends.

Good. You just saved me two years in
therapy.

Oh, no, wait.

I lied.

Four years.

Fine.

She's the one who's lying.

She ain't got no money.

I know she hungry.

Tony. Oh, safety seat. What the hell are
you doing here?

You know, I got to thinking.

A real friend supports another friend.

I thought we weren't friends.

Oh, that was yesterday.

Today, I figured if you want to go to
therapy, fine.

I'll just come down and present my side
of the story. You know what?

You are pathologically locked in your
child, and I am not going to be your

babysitter. Ew, pathologically locked in
your child?

Did we learn that in therapy?

Hey, hey, hey, what's going on here? You
know what? Don't stop me now. I'm on a

roll. I think I'm having a breakthrough.

I'll tell him, Joan.

She wants us to participate in couple
therapy. Wait a minute. Well, I think at

some point that might be a good idea,
but right now I think Joan still has a

of work to do before she's strong enough
to confront this. What do you mean?

I am confronting this. I'm in the middle
of confronting this. Well, then bring

it on. Oh, you don't want none of this.
No one wants none of this.

All right, this might be a bit
unorthodox, but...

Let's take this inside my office. Oh,
fine with me. I've cleared my whole

afternoon. Well, that's easy to do when
you're not selling any houses.

Doctor, do you hear the hostility she
hurls at me?

And don't take my spot. I don't want
your damn spot.

Ladies, look, if this is going to work,
we're going to have to mind our manners.

You know, it's not all my fault.

My mother was very withholding. Your
mother was a drunk.

Thank you.

You're looking rather sexy yourself.

William!

I know you've been setting me up the
whole time. It's the only thing that

sense. All these women throwing
themselves at me just because I'm

please.

You're just testing me to see if I'm
ready for marriage. All right, William,

admit it. I set up the first two.

But that was Regina.

You know, the one who's suing the firm
for sexual harassment?

Oh, no. Regina!

But it was a misunderstanding!

My lips slipped!

Oh, you gotta get up awfully early to
put one over on Maya Wilkes.

Hey, Yvonne. It's Maya.

Yeah, girl.

He's ready.
