All language subtitles for Plan B s03e05

This program contains mature subject
matter, sexuality, coarse language, and

violence. Viewer discretion is advised.

It pains me to know that you two aren't
close.

I don't like myself, Mom. I'd do
anything to be someone else. Why is she

unhappy? Why is she so obsessed with
men? Did I do that or was she born this

way? What's the problem, Officer?

She was jealous.

Jealous of what?

You just didn't feel good enough, I
guess. I'm wondering if flu is insecure

because of your chronic avoidance.

I'm tired of being blamed for everything
while you act like you are above

reproach. My best friend has to write an
email with the subject line, cat

attacked by dog.

I've had a change of heart. I don't want
to host the morning show anymore. We've

been planning this for over a year now.

You fought for this.

You deserve this.

I just need to know what I could have
done differently.

Well, it doesn't make a difference
because you can't change the past.

Welcome to Plan B agency.

Using the keypad.

I'm pregnant.

it still happens.

What do you want to do?

Well, you know what I want to do.

Right.

Sometimes it still happens.

Okay, I don't understand you.

You're such a good father. You're so
great with Felix. I keep telling you I

don't want another baby.

One is perfect for us. Our careers, our
lifestyles, our ambitions. Yeah, and I

keep telling you that I'm desperate for
another one. Why doesn't that matter?

What am I supposed to do? Just go and
have one with someone else?

You know what? It's fine, okay?

It's not your problem. I'll take care of
this one myself.

You are such a good helper. Now, why
don't you grab your brother and wash up,

okay? It's time to eat.

Felix, let's go wash our hands.

Okay.

I told Lewis I don't want the morning
show.

You what?

You've wanted this your whole entire
life. What you've been working for. I

I think I'll be better off behind the
camera.

You know, more privacy, less PR
commitments, more time to raise the

I'm sorry.

Woo, smells good. Yeah, let's set the
table. I'll get the plates.

And a word of advice.

Don't go too far.

Wasn't it a lot of money?

I mean, I'm going to keep writing for
the midday show.

He's okay.

I'm going to keep working with Helen. I
mean, it's more symbolic than anything.

So you turned down the morning show for
that?

I want to be here for the kids when they
wake up in the morning, when they have

breakfast and when they go to school.

I want them to see me more in real life
than they do on TV.

And Lucy needs extra attention at
school.

What makes you say that?

I just mean... I have a feeling that
she's going to find it challenging.

She's a kindergarten Abby.

I don't want to wake up in ten years and
realize I wasn't available for my kids

the way they needed me to be.

It's just, I thought you really wanted
this job.

This one day, you know, it just threw me
off. You understand, right?

Yeah.

I love you.

And I want you to be happy.

And if this is what you want, then hey,
I support you.

Hmm?

Um, I'm feeling a little tired.

I mean, hey, it's just these sexy PJs.
How can I resist, huh?

Do you want me to come in with you?

No?

And we conclude with Agnes McPhail,
first woman elected to Canada's

followed by Mary Ann Shad Carey.

first woman to become a publisher in
Canada, and the first black woman to

a publisher in North America.

I love it.

So we can send it off to the printers?

Yeah, just tell them not to put such a
dark finish on it this time.

I just don't want any delays.

The education ministry confirmed that
they'll include it in the history

curriculum.

I'm so sad that this is your final
project with us, but of course I

you have other commitments.

I turned down the morning show.

Really?

In that case, we should talk.

Oh, my God, Jill.

Oh, hi.

Do you need something, Miss Walker?

What?

Don't be silly. Call me Abby.

Okay, Abby.

I'll see you later.

While some see this app as a fun way to
connect with friends, others are raising

concerns about privacy and safety.

That's all for the entertainment news.
Until next time, snap safely.

And joining us now is our beloved writer
and political correspondent, Abigail

Walker. That was a fascinating segment,
Jill. And you're right. We should keep

our guards up against these social media
networks.

And with the U .S. election ramping up,
we are starting to see a steady rise in

far -right rhetoric here in Canada, too.
Come on.

Really a concern? I mean, there's no way
that a former reality TV star and

failed casino magnate is going to be
elected to the highest office in the

Well, here's hoping you're not a betting
man.

Well, we will see.

Hey,

Abby, come on in. Close the door.

Have a look.

As you can see, we love you around here.

Wow.

I didn't know we had that many zeros
here.

But the answer is, Bill, no.

I can't make the same mistake twice.

I mean, I want to be there for my kids.

Those zeros.

are an indication of what a setback it
would be to start over again.

We negotiated a deal.

We've been putting you on camera to
build your profile.

We tested you nationally. Abby, we don't
give that many zeros to anyone else

around here.

Offer them to Jill.

Jill? The entertainment reporter? You
serious?

Yeah. Give her a shot. She's curious,
energetic, funny, smart.

I mean, camera loves her.

Ask her to pitch you her version of the
show and see what she comes up with.

It was just, uh, it was brutal.

He broke up with me by gif.

Who did?

Not, uh, Stu.

Stu.

Like, what?

What if he's my last chance to have a
baby?

I mean, I could always, like, finagle
some well -timed breakup sex.

I'm just gonna assume that you're
joking.

Am I joking?

I don't know.

I want things, Abby.

Why can't I just meet someone who's
mature and smart and passionate and sexy

and, like, who uses words?

Imagine that. You know, like, someone
like Nick.

Can I tell you that Stu wants full
custody of Fluffy? My Fluffy.

My fur baby.

Oh, my God, you should... You should let
him.

Absolutely not. I am not leaving this
relationship without some variety of

Mark my words. Fur or no fur.

You okay?

Yeah.

It seems like your mom was on her best
behavior.

Yeah, I'm just tired.

Can you not?

and laid her hand in his.

He said, I will willingly go away with
you.

Mom, can you not find something that's
not full of patriarchal garbage?

There's more to life than princes and
romance.

Guys, brush your teeth and go to bed.

But we haven't finished the story.

Can't we just make one exception because
Grandma's here?

Yeah, Mom, please.

Well, Grandma's not going to have to
deal with two cranky babies who can't

function in school because they stayed
up too late. Go to bed.

But I wanted to know if the prince ever
saved the princess. Lucy, I said go to

bed!

Night, sweetheart.

I love you.

I love you.

I'll call you a taxi.

People are trying to sleep here.

I don't know where she went.

And Stu swears it wasn't him.

Well, maybe it's better this way.

Every time you looked at her, you'd be
reminded of him.

No, no, very different facial structure.

Well, you're looking for a little bit of
companionship.

I can be your bitch.

What, you're going to lick my face?

Let me, like, stroke you?

Oh, my God, stop it, you weirdo.

No, you stop it.

And I gotta go. I have to put up more
flyers and stuff.

I'm sorry, Kat. I truly am.

Yeah, thanks.

Hey, you sure you have all your
equipment in there?

Yep. Okay, well, time to go. Let's go,
let's go, let's go!

Hey, why don't... Why don't I take him
to hockey?

To hockey practice, really?

Sure.

You can spend the day with Lou.

You can take her to the movies or the
park or the island. She loves the

Yeah, she does that stuff with you.

Exactly.

You don't know anything about hockey.
You don't even know how to get them

dressed. Exactly.

Okay.

Are we going? Let's go.

Yeah, let's do it.

Okay, that's not so hard.

That's not so hard at all. Was I
supposed to put this on first?

Uh, yeah.

Like, like this.

Okay.

Then I put the socks on. Okay.

Then you do the tape. Ah.

Aha. No, no. The see -through kind.

Yes, yes, yes, yes. That one.

You play hockey with this in the
wintertime.

Okay. But then in the summer, you play
golf.

Oh, that tastes so good.

Yeah, Mom, you really nailed it this
time.

Divine, right?

Hey, Lucy, isn't this delicious?

Mommy, you make the best lasagna in the
whole wide world.

All right, you knuckleheads.

You know it's from Roberto's. Yeah, but
it's how you heat it up. It's a

masterpiece. I mean, you must share with
us your secrets.

Ah, well, a great heater -upper never
reveals her secrets.

You and I are sharing a room now.

So you guys can look after one another.

See how well she sleeps when she's got
her big brother to protect her.

I'm okay, Mom. I can go in by myself.

Oh, okay.

Have a nice day.

Good morning.

Good morning.

So we have one box to send to the
minister's office

and another box for the school board.

Oh, these turned out so nice.

Oh, that's great.

Um, so I've decided I'm ready to take on
some of those projects you were talking

about. Is that so?

Also, I have an idea.

I want to organize a march to raise
awareness about intimate partner

Hello? Is anyone home?

You're so beautiful, Mommy.

I'll never be beautiful.

Buddy, how was your day?

I played dodgeball at recess.

I thought I was going to be out, but
then Charlie, who's like the best player

dodgeball in the whole school, dropped
the ball at the last second.

Way to go.

That's awesome.

How was your day, sweetie?

How come I don't get a kiss? Is it
because I smell like banana farts?

No, it's because of your sticky fur
balls.

Are you still

feeling sad, sweetheart?

Nobody wants to play with me at school.
I'm all by myself.

How come?

The media outlets all said the same
thing. Great initiative.

They'll happily cover the march if it's
a slow news day.

Even the midday show.

What?

No. No. There must be some mistake.

There should be clamoring to cover this.
It's going to be all over the socials.

Let me just call the head of the studio.
I'll talk to him. I already tried that.

Lewis, it's Abby.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I saw that. She's
going to be great.

Hey, what's this about you not covering
my march?

It's going to be historic. You know
that, right?

Yeah, well, I'm a writer on the Midday
Show, so I should have some editorial.

Yeah, fine.

Yeah, nice priorities, Louis.

Want me to take you over?

Come. Let's go together.

Hi, girls.

Lucy wants to play with you guys. Do you
guys want to play with Lucy?

We don't want to play with her.

What? Why?

She's mean and she hits us.

Is that true? Did you hit those girls?

Why would you do something like that?

Because they don't like me.

Well, how do you know that? Did you give
them a chance?

What's the matter, Lucy?

Nobody wants to play with me.

And that makes you feel bad?

I understand.

But Romy feels bad, too, because you hit
her.

How long has this been going on?

From day one, unfortunately.

Lucy antagonizes her friends before they
even get a chance to play together.

But we're working on it, aren't we,
Lucy?

Hi.

Hi, dear.

Mom, I told you I was going to get a ton
of food.

And I told you that I was going to cook
something special for my granddaughter's

birthday.

Lucy!

What a beautiful drawing, kids. Look
what Lucy drew.

Mommy loves it so much that I'm going to
frame it and I'm going to hang it up in

our living room. Okay?

What's that about?

What? I mean, she's not even trying.

What?

Validation can't hurt, especially in
front of her friends.

Hi, Romy.

Thank you so much for coming. Lucy's
going to be so excited that you're here.

Thank you so much for coming. Uh,

we've got white wine, rosé, beer,
sparkling water. What would you like?

Yeah? Guys, make some room for Romy
here.

Okay.

We've got crayons, we've got markers,
we've got stamps, we've got it all.

Ah, you're Jose.

Why are you sitting here all by
yourself?

You never let me win.

Honey, you can't win all the time, okay?

Oh, hell no.

Thank you, but no. I don't think that
this is a good idea for Louie.

You don't even know what it is. Yeah,
how do you know? Well, I could guess

it is, but I don't think that's what I
want her playing with.

Lucy hit her again.

What?

Lucy, what is your problem? You don't
hit people, okay?

No one was going to want to play with
you if you hurt them.

I don't understand. Why can't you just
be happy?

What does she mean to, my love?

Mom, can you just give me a second?

I don't understand.

Why would you do that?

Make her wish, sweetheart.

Happy birthday much, Ken.

Thank you.

You know, that's not the example that I
want to set for my daughter.

I don't know what you're talking about.

The kitchen set, the symbol of the sweet
little housewife, her life filled with

pots and pans.

Is that all you see me as?

That is so belittling.

I love taking care of you, making food
for you, making a nice home.

Well, then why were you so miserable all
the time? All the time?

If only he had left us. If only your
father was still here. It drove me

absolutely crazy.

Abigail, why do you begrudge me wanting
to love and be loved?

Is that why you're so impatient with me?

And with Lucy?

I guess we're not as independent as you
are, are we?

Jill's waiting for us in the conference
room. Are you sure this is a good idea?

absolutely i can't look i would you're
perfect i would just give you the job

i can't anymore i just don't know if i'm
right for it i mean like i don't know

how to do this thing a weather girl like
do people even see a weather girl

anymore you're born for this trust me
you feel like i smell just remember this

is a morning show so try and keep it
like pg -13 pg -13 yeah fuck yeah got it

Let me introduce you to Jill Holness and
the Whole Morning Ensemble.

Hi, Kat.

Hi, Jill.

Nice to meet you. Nice to meet you, too.
It is a pleasure to meet you. Nice

handshake. Thank you. Such a pleasure.
Okay, just forget what I said. Just be

yourself. No one wants that. No one
wants me. Please relax, okay? We're all

friends here. Great.

I hate your glass.

Okay, come on in, Kat. Sorry.

Sorry.

Thank you so much for...

Meeting with her. Oh, listen, I owe you
one. I know you're the one that put me

up for this job.

Well, you're going to be great.

Um, actually, can I ask you another
favor?

Um, would you help me promote a march
that I'm trying to organize to raise

awareness about intimate partner
violence and the need for... Consider it

Just send me an email with all the
details.

Okay, thanks.

It's premature to draw conclusions, but
what we've observed is that Lucy tends

to feel overlooked if she isn't the
center of attention.

This can trigger anxiety, a common
occurrence in many children.

Well, what does it stem from?

Anxiety in children can often be traced
back to significant life events, such as

the loss of a loved one or parental
separation.

Short of that, exposure to a parent's
anxiety can be the culprit, too.

Children at that age absorb emotions
like sponges. Sorry, what are you

Only that Lucy might be internalizing
your own anxiety.

Well, I'm only anxious because I'm
worried about her. I wasn't like this

Before what?

It's a cycle, you see. Your anxiety
feeds hers.

Perhaps you should learn to trust her
resilience.

We can give kids tools and guardrails,
but...

We also have to learn when to step back
and let them find their own way.

We cannot, as parents, as Canadians,
accept violence as an inevitable part of

our society.

This is not the legacy that we want to
leave for our daughters.

This is a fight for our lives, and we
demand action from our government.

I didn't expect to see you here, to peg
you as the protesting type.

Break the silence!

End the violence!

Break the silence!

End the violence!

Break the silence!

End the violence!

Break the silence!

I really hadn't anticipated such a small
turnout.

Well, I mean, listen, if we count the
cops, we double our numbers.

And if I, like, cross my eyes, I swear
there's, like, a hundred of us, maybe.

Big mob.

Trying out material for your new TV gig?

Actually, no.

Not in the cards. Morning show, not in
the cards.

What, did Jill say no?

I did.

I just, I was thinking about it. I was
like, I love my job. I need security.

And, come on, we both know I'm not a
weather girl. Yeah, but it's what you've

always wanted. It's based on the
weather. Why would you say that?

I guess I just mean you're so talented.
You know, you deserve an audience.

Well, I guess that makes two of us who
don't have the stomach for it.

Yeah, but not you. You're fearless. You
should do it. Come on. I just told you I

don't want to.

That's it. Sorry to disappoint.

No, it's not that. I'm just... Right.

It's good.

I don't mind.

There are some women groups that should
have been here. They just didn't get on

board this time.

What do you mean, this time?

No, I just mean... I guess I don't have
the same influence that I used to, that

I thought I had.

Maybe I'm just not cut out for this.

Don't say that.

This is just the beginning.

There'll be a lot more people here next
year.

Okay, bud.

What you do now is unlock the door,
okay?

What's going on, Abby?

I haven't recognized you these days.

You mean what? Because I'm bummed about
the turnout?

It feels like you've given up.

I have to admit, I feel kind of lost.

I don't know where I'm supposed to go
from here.

I'm stuck.

I just need some time to figure it out.

But hey, what matters is that we have
two great kids, right?

No?

Nothing?

I feel like we're just parents.

I mean, what are we doing, Abby? Do you
still love me?

Of course I do.

Bullshit.

You're a great father, Nick. That's what
matters to me most.

Would you still desire me?

Come on, I've been... I've been busy
with the march and... Stop lying, Abby.

Stop lying to me and to yourself.

I need you, Nick.

I do.

I feel like a failure as a mother and
just lost. If

you go, what the hell am I doing here?

Go where?

It's all for nothing if you go.

Please.

Please don't give up on me.

Hey, Abby.

Hi.

Thanks so much for staying later. I know
you had a busy day.

Sure.

Look.

I messed up.

I need my job back.

Abby, your job's not in jeopardy.

No, not this one.

The morning show.

Okay, my life's work depends on it. I
need it back.

Okay, I'll do anything.

You'd really have me take Jill's job
away?

Look, Jill's wonderful, and I know that
you invested a lot in her.

Maybe I could be her co -host.

Okay? Kat's not interested in the offer.

You know that's not the way it works.

Besides, you're a leader, not a
sidekick. At least that's what I've

believed.

Okay.

You were right, okay?

I fucked up.

Look, I thought it would be better for
my family, and I was wrong, and now I'm

trapped, so... Could you just keep me in
mind if anything opens up?

Just... Abby. That's all I'm asking.
Just give me another chance.

Abby.

That ship has sailed.

I'm sorry.

Look, I... I've got a dinner
reservation.

Remember? No kidding.

That's right. And if you're not happy
about something, you say it calmly.

Yeah.

Have fun.

That's good news.

The journal is publishing my paper on
French colonial Indochina, which I can

leverage into a salary bump for next
year.

That's amazing.

And I've been invited to present my
research at a conference in London.

I was going to turn it down, but since
you're home so much, I thought, why not?

Is that okay?

Yeah. Yeah.

I've lit such a fire under you, how can
I refuse?

Honey, come on. You know that's not
right.

Hey, Nick.

Do you mind helping Lucy with her French
homework?

You're better at it.

Better at French?

Better at...

What you got there?

A comic.

A comic that you drew?

Yeah.

Can I take a peek?

That's a cape. He's a superhero with,
well, a cape. No superpowers, just a

Pretty stupid, huh?

I love it.

I can't even begin to describe the agony
of this heart medication.

It's like every bone in my body is on
fire.

Wow. You know whose fault it is?

Your father's.

But, you know, if he was still here, he
could take care of me and my house.

They're just going to shuffle me off to
some nursing home.

You're welcome.

I'm afraid I have some troubling news.

Here, you go ahead.

I feel so guilty about this. You don't
need a frail old woman fluttering up

space. Nick!

You can change your mind, you know. I
won't hold it against you.

Oh, okay. Well, why don't we just take
care of it back then?

Don't be silly. We're so happy to have
you.

How are you?

Kids, guess who's here?

Oh, my.

Oh, kid!

You two are the best.

That's a yummy pie.

We're here.

You had a bad dream?

Grandma's not coming back.

Is she?

No, but we're still here.

And we're never going to forget her,
okay?

And don't you worry.

I'm always going to be here to protect
you.

Always.
