Do you have a husband,
or boyfriend, girlfriend?

I'm open to all possibilities.

No, no husband or partner.
Just me.

What about Ziggy's dad?

He's not in the picture.
We weren't together.

I'm not having sex,
I promise you.

What are those pills?

When it comes to my daughter's
social recreational life,

will you just kick that little
can of worms over to me?

So when will
we discuss this whole thing

with Bonnie and Maddie?

You're telling me you and Perry
don't ever fight?

Sometimes I think
that he likes to fight

because it leads to sex.

Sometimes I think I like it too.

I was thinking when you
get back from Vienna,

maybe we could see
another counselor.

I think it's a good idea.

Amabella's having a party.
That's sweet!

I didn't get invited.

If Ziggy doesn't go,
then Chloe's not going.

Do not fuck with
my daughter's birthday.

Mom!

Mom!

Mom!

We should go home now.
I think it's dinnertime.

Let's get you
something to eat.

What should we make?

Uh, pizza.

No, not pizza again.

She's not coming?

Well, she really
wants to, sweetheart.

Turns out
she has a conflict.

It so happens
that your party

is on the same exact day
as Disney on Ice.

But if Chloe doesn't come,
is everybody else coming?

Almost everybody.

There are a few others

who are going
to the other thing.

How many?

I'm not exactly sure.

How many, about?

I think six.

Honey, but everybody else
in the whole class is coming.

It's gonna be
an incredible party.

Come, come.

Oof.

Hey,
it's a beautiful weekend.

Look, they're
setting up games.

There's gonna be
a bouncy,

a magician,
princesses,

Spider-Man
for the boys.

It's gonna be the best
birthday party ever.

Of course it's gonna be
the best birthday party ever!

Get over here,
you little punk!

What are you doing, huh?
Mwah!

Do me a favor,
get your swimsuit on,
all right?

I'll meet you
in the pool,
five minutes.

Ready?
Go, go, go.

Four minutes!
Three minutes!

What's going on?

Six kids aren't
coming tomorrow.

Six.

It was a mistake
to not invite
Ziggy Chapman.

Yeah, I kind of felt bad
about accepting those tickets,

but they're so expensive.

And plus Lily didn't know
Amabella from a tree trunk.

Honey, he tried
to choke her.

She's afraid of him.

How could we possibly
invite him?

Yeah, but with
Chloe Mackenzie
not coming and...

That fucking Madeline!

Honey, it's gonna be
a spectacular party.

Amabella is gonna have
the time of her life.

I'm gonna kill her.

Hey, are we going
to some kid's birthday
party tomorrow?

- Oh.
- Ran into Reed Whittaker today

and he seemed
to think we were.

For about 10 seconds,
but then Madeline

got tickets
to Disney on Ice.

Truly.

The kids are excited,
actually.

Okay.

And what,
I'm not invited
to this Disney thing?

Come on.

You don't
want to go to that.
You hate those things.

You don't think I wanna
spend some time with my family

after being gone
all week?

Why didn't
we discuss this?

- No, let's not--
- Wh-- no.

Why didn't
we discuss it?

Well, it just--
it wasn't like that.

I don't know.

Madeline got
the tickets and--

and there were
only so many.

So it's a money thing.
We couldn't afford a ticket.

No, it's not that.
It's-- take my ticket,
really.

- That's not the point.
- What is the point?

The point is that
one second they're going

to some kid's birthday party
that I didn't know about,

the next, you decided
to take them to a show.

- Come on, Perry.
- Am I not a member
of this family?

Sometimes I have to make
decisions when you're
10,000 miles away.

You don't
think it'd be nice
for Josh and Max

to spend time with their dad
who's been gone all week?

All right.
It...

- Do you think I wanna
be away all the time?
- No.

- Do you think I enjoy
missing our family?
- No.

Look at me, then.
Look at me.

Come on.

- Huh?
- Ow, you're hurting me.

- Oh, I'm hurting you, huh?
- Mm-hmm.

- Can we talk about
how much you hurt me?

Do you deliberately
plan these things

to avoid having
to be with me?

- Huh?
- Take your hand off me.

You could've bought
another ticket.

I will leave you.

You touch me like that again,
and I will fucking leave you!

The injuries were many

and they were severe.

We are talking
multiple broken bones.

Indians?

Native Americans,
honey.

Lots of people have
Native-American ancestors.

He looks like
an Indian.

Your father
will explain.

It's not fair.

Joey's ancestor
is Christopher Columbus.

Mmm, he killed
lots of Indians.

- That's not helpful.
- That's actually true.

Ed.

I don't wanna do
a family tree.

Well, you have to, honey.
It's the assignment.

- You wanna do well
in school, right, Chloe?
- Listen to your sister.

If you don't excel
in first grade, you won't
get into private school.

And then you can forget
about Stanford.

And then
what's the point?

Don't listen
to your sister.

How much longer are we gonna
beat this dead horse?

- I was just kidding.
- Wait, who beats horses?

Nobody, honey.

- Hello?
May I speak
to Madeline, please?

Yeah, one sec.

Renata Klein.

Really?

Hello?

Madeline, it's Renata.

Mm-hmm.
What's up?

Well, had a little bit
of a long night of the soul

last night,
and, uh,

well, I think
you were right.

- I see.
- It was wrong of me

to exclude Ziggy Chapman
from the party.

She wants to invite Ziggy.

It just was,
and, uh...

well, I'd like
to invite him after all

and of course
have Chloe there.

It would be so great.

Amabella is so fond of her,
as you know.

Um, would you happen
to have Jane's number?

I really wanna
give her a call.

Oh, you are so sweet,

but tomorrow
there's a bunch of us

that are all
driving to San Jose
for Disney on Ice.

Oh, um, well,
I-- I just--

- I thought--
- Well, maybe we could
swing by afterwards.

How late will the party
be going until?

3:00.

No, we won't
be back by then.

But there's gotta be something
we can do, right?

If only there was.

Sorry, were.

Subjective tense
since it's contrary to fact.

Okay, how about this?

Chloe and the others
come to the party,

big smiles
on their faces, right?

And after, I arrange
a-- a great sleepover
weekend trip to Disneyland--

all expense paid,
VIP passes, the works.

Backstage passes
to "Frozen."

Yeah, it's not
gonna work.

I'll even get Snow White
to sit on your husband's face.

Maybe Dumbo can take
a squat on yours.

You are so sweet.

I'd rather go to the party
than the stupid show.

You're dead in this town,

as is your
fucking puppet show.

Oh, thank you so much
for calling, Renata.

I really appreciate it.

- All good?
- Yep!

We are gonna have
a great time today.

Look, guys,
Harry the Hippo is flying.

If I were you, I'd be
gentle with his legs.

Can we see him?

Thank you.

- You good?
- Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.
I'm good.

Thank you for arranging
the transportation.

"Frozen!"

It was pathetic.

Gordon Klein
was kind of a fuck-up.

Rich, powerful,
but DNA-- huge fuck-up.

Hey, sexy.

Have you been smoking?

Birthday girl!

It was a fantastic party.

of Bonnie's dancing.

A lot of the dads
were staring.

I saw erections.

What you doing?

Working on this website
for a new drone company.

It's incredible,
the technology.

Aren't those things,
like, illegal now?

Not yet.

Probably only
a matter of time, though.

What happened
with you and my father?

He said
you threatened him.

I didn't threaten him.

If anything,
he was aggressive.

He demanded I make your mother
be nice to Bonnie,

which I found
to be ridiculous,
truth be told.

What part was ridiculous?

The idea that my mom
should be nice to Bonnie

or that my father
should care?

Okay, guess we know
where you stand.

What's wrong with Mom?

Nothing.
Why?

She doesn't seem
a bit agitated to you lately?

Honey, agitation
is her preferred state.

Yeah, well, it's not mine,
if that matters.

Cake, cake, cake!

We want cake!
We want cake!

Yay!

Take that off her,
the little-- the fake one,

and we put
the cake one on top.

Yeah!

Make a wish.
Make a wish.

- Happy birthday!
- Hope you had fun!

- Bye! Thank you!
- Bye.

- Thank you so much.
- See you later. Bye.

- What a beautiful party.
- Thank you.

Oh, we got two!

The "Frozen" gift bags
were a deft touch.

So good.

How fun was that?

- I'm exhausted.
- Oh, my God.

- I'm gonna go right to bed.
- Thanks again for the guitar.

- Ziggy played guitar, right?
Mom, you have
Harry, right?

Harry?
The Hippo?

Harry the Hippo
had been with the school
for over 10 years.

He's gonna
get blamed again.

Why does fucking shit
keep happening to me?

Oh, that's cute.

- Abigail.
- Send that to me.

- Hey.
- Hey.

- How's things?
- Um, pretty good.

Yeah? Can I talk to you
in private for a second?

- What did I do?
- Nothing, honey.

Why don't we just
go to my office?
Shall we?

There was a fine,
upstanding black man.
- Can I talk to you?

- Now?
- Yeah.

Jesus Christ.
But, Gary,
Jesus was white.

- No, Jesus was black.
- No, Jesus was white.

Guys, guys,
Jesus was Jewish.

I can make up
the money.

I know a few more people
that I could call

or we could work for free
for a while just to make
a point,

and that would make
a very big point.

I'm gonna tell you
what the mayor told me--

- you don't wanna go there.
- I do wanna go there.

If we alienate the mayor
or city council, we'll be
cutting off all--

- Fuck the mayor
and fuck city council.
- Okay.

I'm so sick
of this bullshit.

Yeah, I don't
like it either.

Are we only supposed
to put on plays

that are acceptable
to a tiny group of people?

Because right now
it's "Avenue Q,"

and next week it'll be
"Book of Mormon,"

and then it'll be
the books that we can read

or the films
our children can watch.

I told the mayor we might
consider legal recourse

'cause of how
far along we are.

He basically laughed.

Plus I'd have to
solicit city council

to even get funding
to retain a lawyer.

I have a lawyer.
She's amazing.

Her name is Celeste Wright.
She worked for a huge firm.

Maddie, I haven't
even told these guys.
They don't know.

It just pisses me off,
because in large part

this has to do
with Renata Klein

having this mayor
and this town by the balls.

And if city council
were to see somebody

like the-- the likes
of Celeste and Perry Wright
on the other side of this,

they would have
to pay attention.

Why-- why are you laughing?

You're such a bulldog.

It's because I care.

Will you just try
and get a meeting
with the mayor?

Your work is too good, Joseph.

Hello?

Yeah.
Are you okay?

Her GPA was 3.9
coming into the year,
so, you know, it's early.

We don't have to panic.

What are you doing?
Stop that.

But to see such
a precipitous drop
in performance

makes me think
that there's usually
something else going on.

- Are you taking drugs?
- No, it's not drugs.

- Then what is this about?
Is this about a boy?
- No.

Madeline--

sorry, is it okay
if I call you Madeline?

As opposed to what?
Arthur?

I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.

Yes, you can call me
Madeline.

It seems that Abigail

is under a bit of stress
at home.

Is this about Ed
threatening your father?

Did he tell you
about that?

It isn't that.

Um...

Then what's it
about, honey?

I feel this burden
or pressure.

I don't know
how to be perfect.

- Excuse me?
- Whether it's I need
to get into Stanford--

Hey, if this is about
the SAT tutor--

Maybe you should
just let her finish.

- I'm speaking to
my daughter right now.
- Mom!

Go ahead.
She can handle it.

Handle what?

There are a lot
of high-powered women
who live here.

Some run banks,
others run Google

or Yahoo and...

sometimes I feel like
you're grooming me

to get to a place
you, um, couldn't.

I think, uh,
it would just be best

if I go live with Dad
for a while.

- I-- I just did not--
- I feel like I can't
be myself at home.

Have you been
discussing this with him?

No.

I don't even think
I was totally aware
of how much I...

until Ms. Brewster
and I started talking.

Mom, I just need
a change, okay?

I think it would be
better for me

spiritually.

It's my fault.

I never should have
gotten into it with Nathan.

No, it's my fault.

I pushed her too hard.

I always push too hard.

Honey, look at me.

Hey.

You are not
losing her, okay?

You and Abby
are so close.

Maybe too close,
which is why she feels...

She wouldn't leave
if she knew I had cancer.

Well, you don't
have cancer.

But I'd be willing
to get it.

- This is rough, Ed.
- I know.

Your only crime is
you were too good a parent.

I mean, you have
raised a strong-minded,
autonomous young woman

who can think for herself,
who can express her feelings,

and she's equipped to make
pretty big life decisions.

She is
an extraordinary person

just like her mom.

Thank you.

I'm gonna get better.

All right, Adam,
where do we stand?

What?
Lowlife scumbag.

Pricks who have a company
that fits really well
with ours.

Don't worry, he'll buy it.
Okay, here's what
you're gonna do.

You're gonna go into Malcom
and tell him we have
a new deal.

And sweeten the executive
stock options pool.

Yeah, let's keep
these prepubescents
flush in skateboards.

All right, now stop
picking your noses
and get this done.

No, it's a fair price.
They'll cave.

Don't worry.
Oh, and a three-year vest, okay?

No shorter.
Yeah, they gotta stay
to get paid.

- I will take care of it.
- Okay, call me when it's done.

You let me
worry about it.
Yeah.

I think Amabella
should go to therapy.

Therapy?

It couldn't hurt.

She's six.

Yeah,
but she's gifted,

which makes her
intuitively advanced

and emotionally
more vulnerable.

Honey...

Please don't
"honey" me.

I know she enjoyed
her party,

but you have to admit
her excitement seemed
tempered,

and that's because
Chloe and a couple of other
favorite friends weren't there.

Yeah, but to seek
medical help?

Medical?
It's not medical.

Gordon, don't be
so old-fashioned.
Come on.

I just--
we've talked about this.

Amabella internalizes.

And a social slight
could cause

more psychological harm
than a choking.

I come back
to "she's six."

Well, trust me,
those wounds can
last forever.

And she doesn't
need to know she's seeing
a child psychologist.

Some of the best ones
now dress up as clowns.

We-- we could sell it
as another birthday surprise.

You're laughing at me?

Gordon, please,
I spend all day long
never letting my guard down.

Just let me be
a scared mom.

It's our daughter.

Look, one of the things
that makes you so successful

is that you're able
to see every hiccup.

You know, it's--
it's one of your many gifts.

So one of the pitfalls
is that you tend

to way overthink
everything.

Amabella had a great time
at the party.

How could she not?

That thing blew
Disney on Ice away.

Have I become
tragically unfun?

Oh, honey, no.

Come on, no,
of course not.

Oh, my God, I have.

I'm now
one of those people

I swore I would never
turn myself into--

- some corporate,
controlling, anxious--
- No, don't.

Don't.
Stop it!

On our third date,
we went skydiving.

- Do you remember that?
- Indeed I do.

Well, I think
that was the last time

I let myself
just free fall.

When did we become
past our spontaneous prime?

You want spontaneous?

Let's make love
on that desk right now.

No, you know what?
I take that back.

- Let's fuck
on that desk right now.
- Don't make fun of me.

I am not making fun of you.
I am looking at my wife.

I wanna fuck her
right here and right now.

- Don't be ridiculous.
- Why not?

Ridiculous is
totally commensurate
with free falling.

Take off your clothes.

- Gordon...
- Do I have to
rip them off?

- People will see.
- No one will see.

Well, they'll hear.
You know how I get.

Fine, no desk.

Bathroom.

- Welcome, welcome.
- Thank you very much.

- The office
is in that way.
- Mm-hmm.

- Okay.
- Go ahead, yeah.

- On the couch?
- Yes.

- Okay.
- Yes.

Well, so what brings
you here today?

Maybe-- all right.

So, you're free
to talk about anything.

A lot of couples experience
a death of passion, um...

Passion is definitely
not our problem.

If it is,
maybe it's because
there's too much of it.

How do you mean?

Well, we love
each other very much.

Yeah.

And, um...

I just think
maybe we--

things can just get
a bit volatile.

Volatile how?

We fight a lot
and we say things.

Um, we yell,
we scream, and...

We just have
a lot of anger

that we need
some help controlling.

When you talk of anger
and volatility...

are we talking about
a physical expression
of anger?

No.

Just emotional,
um...

verbal.

Mm.

It's not--
not quite true.

After we fight, we--

ahem, we very often
make love.

I don't know
if you can call it
making love.

It's very--

um, there seems to be
a lot of anger,

you know, mixed up
in it, and...

Mm-hmm.

Well, there's a line
between passion and--

and rage, and...

and, you know,
sometimes maybe we--

we cross that.

Sometimes.

Where do you think
this rage comes from?

I don't know.

I don't even know
how to begin

to answer
that question.

Try.

Okay, um...

I-- I think I'm afraid
of losing her.

Okay.
Why do you think that?

Have you-- have
you seen her?

Look at her.

Uh, she can have
any man she wants,
you know.

And if she's not
happy with me,

there will be a line
of a thousand men

just waiting,
you know.

Uh... yeah.

And lately,
it doesn't always
seem that she's happy.

And that, uh--

that terrifies me.

From the very beginning,
like when we first met,

I've always...

worried that she would
just go through me.

You know,
like that--

What do you mean by that?
By "go through you"?

That she would...

outgrow me, maybe.

Or figure me out
or something.

So I've always
had this sense that--

that, you know,
the day would come
where she would just--

where she would just
not love me anymore, and--

and I...

I think I'm constantly
looking for evidence
that she--

Evidence that she doesn't--
doesn't love you anymore.

Celeste, how do you feel
about what Perry just said?

I gave up
my career for you.

I-I--

I left my family.

I left my friends.

I moved here
for you.

You honestly think
I don't love you?

A couple of days ago,
you said that you would
leave me.

Wha--?

What occasioned that?

Anybody?

I grabbed her...

by the-- I grabbed
her by the shoulders

pretty hard.

So, the idea
that it's never
gotten violent is, uh...

I grabbed her hard.

And then she said
that if I--

if I ever do that again,
she would leave me.

He frightened me
and...

Has this ever
happened before?

Yeah.

Sometimes I lash out.

And, you,
Celeste?

What about me?

Do you ever
lash out?

Yeah, when
it gets physical,
I fight back.

I do.

And how does that feel,
when this happens?

Not good.

I don't feel
good about it.

Can you be
more specific?

I think I feel
ashamed.

- Ashamed...?
- Yeah.

We get angry.

We fight and we--

we then have
this crazy, angry sex.

And then we make up,
and it's--

it's all better,
and...

And we have this...

dirty secret.

Hmm.

Fuck! Fuck me
to the fucking
moon and back!

Thank you all
for coming.

Okay, our first
order of business today

regards our Annual
Fall Gala Fundraiser.

Now, given the unprecedented
success of last year's
Trivia Night

with the theme
"Dead Celebrities,"

we've decided
to come back again with
yet another costume gala,

- this year titled
"Elvis and Audrey Night."

I think it should
make for a splendid...

- Oh, God.
- ...evening filled with fun,

fashion, frivolity,

one which should raise
some much-needed funding--

and I'm looking at you,
Bruce Pedulla--

going to the benefit
of all our wonderful,
wonderful children.

Right? Right.
Okay, great.

Any questions?

Yes, Mrs. Cunningham.

We all dress as either
Elvis or Audrey?

Same costumes
for everybody?

Yes. Part of the fun
will be seeing a different
interpretation.

- Do you know her?
- Any other questions?

- I don't know. Do I?
Progress.
Moving on.

Of all the people
they want me to pretend
to be-- Audrey Hepburn.

Great, I'll be
the spitting image.

- Hey, Maddie?
- Great.

- Hi, Nathan.
Hello, Bonnie.
- Hi.

- Ed.
- Nathan.

Um, can I steal you
for a second?

Mmm.

Um, it's about
this whole Abby thing.

That was not my doing.

I'm as surprised
as you are.

Okay.

So, are you--
are you all right
with this?

I suppose at this point
I have to be.

She has a very
well-developed sense
of self-awareness, so...

if she thinks
it's what's best,
then...

That's very mature
of you.

We'll take
good care of her.

Um, there's something
that's a little off-subject,

but not really.

Would you mind
just discretely checking
your husband right now?

Do you see the way
he's staring at me?

I think he wants
to fight me.

Don't be ridiculous.
Ed doesn't fight.

Maddie, I just
wanted to say

that I know that
you're her mother.

And Abigail
knows it, too.

I will never try
to encroach, ever.

Sorry.

All right, good cut, Timmy.
Good cut.

You're all right.
Keep your eye on the ball
next time, okay?

Good cut, good cut.
Who's next?

- Come on.
- Come on, George.

- Come on, Jessie.
- You can do it!

- Do I have to?
- Yep. Mm-hmm.

We talked about this.
I need you to try it once.

And if you don't like it,
I'll never make you
do it again.

I just wanna go play
on the playground.

I know, but you might
actually like it.

- Okay?
- Okay.

I love you.

Come on, guys!

You can do it, Blue!

Hey.

- Missed you at the meeting.
- I know. I'm sorry.

I'm at tee-ball
with Ziggy.

Just trying to get him
more involved.

Savor the moment
because, trust me,

- they grow up.
- Are you okay?

Abigail's decided
she wants to go live
with her father.

I'm so sorry.

Now I don't have to cook
all that vegan crap.

Hey, can I call you back?
Ziggy's about up to bat.

- Yeah, go.
Call me later.
- Okay, bye.

Now, keep your eye
right on the ball

and swing as level
as you can.

Okay, buddy?
All right, here we go.

- You got this, baby!
- Any time you're ready, Zig.

Run, run, run, run!
Run, Ziggy, run!

- Run, run, run!
Go, baby!
Go, go, go!

Go to second,
go to second!

Go, baby, go!

Go to third,
go to third, Ziggy!

Go, babe!

- Run, run, run!
- Home run! Home run!

Home run!
Slap me some skin!

Oh, my God,
you did it!

Ah!

You cannot ruin
this one.

It's hand wash only,
so make sure and tell Bonnie,

or I guess you can
tell your dad.

Maybe your dad
does the laundry now.

Maybe he does.

I was thinking

now that you
are gone a little bit,

maybe we could have
some girlfriend time.

That'd be cool.

Are you ever
coming back?

Yeah, of course.

I'm gonna come back
all the time.

I made a playlist
for you.

Are you trying
to take my room?

Can I?

No, you can't.

Maybe when I go
to college, though.

- We should go get pizza.
- It's all right.

What are you
talking about?

Baby, you just hit
a home run

on your
very first try!

I think you're actually
the first kid in history

to ever do that.

Come on, you have to be
a little bit excited.

Did you see
those parents' faces?

Everybody was like--
they were screaming!

I was screaming!
It was so good!

We have to do
my family tree.

No, that's not due
for another week.

It's due tomorrow.

No. No, it's due
on the--

the 27th, I think.

I put it
in my calendar,

'cause I didn't
wanna forget that...

Oh, fuck.

What did you say?

Nothing.
Sorry.

Are you fucking
kidding me?

- Hey. God.
- Hey!

- Thank you so much.
- Do not worry.

We've got this.

Please, when Abigail
was little,

I used to get
everything late.

That's fine.
Hi, Ziggy!

- I heard you hit
a home run today!
- Yeah.

That is so exciting.
Congratulations.

So, I organized
some of the photos.

Here's Grandma
and Grandpa.

Cousins, brother,
more cousins.

I don't know if they're
first or second, though,

because I'm not sure
who they--

Okay, wait, first of all,
we have to draw the tree.

That's the most
important thing.

And they want it
actually on the cardboard.

- Here you go, honey.
- The assignment said
the child has to contribute.

Now, put the trunk
on there.

And you're gonna be
in the trunk,

and then your mom and dad
are then leaves.

And then we'll go
from there.

What about my father?

Um, we don't--

We need to put him
in here.

You don't
have a dad, sweetie,
so it's-- it's okay.

We'll use Grandma and Grandpa,
and me, and Great-Uncle Jimmy.

I still have to write
my dad's name on the board.

Well, you know, I said that,
but everybody's board

is gonna be
a little bit different.

You have to write down
both of your parents' names.

I'll get in trouble
if I don't.

No, you won't
get in trouble.

I want you
to put it down.

Ziggy.

What is his name?
Just write it down!

I don't know.
You know that.

I've told you this story
so many times.

You know he would've
loved you, but...

What is his name,
for Christ's sakes?!

Go to your room!
That is not okay!

Have you ever tried
to look him up?

No.

He told me that his name
was Saxon Banks,

like Mr. Banks,
the dad in "Mary Poppins."

- Mm-hmm.
- But I Googled him
afterwards, and...

We met in a bar.

He was funny and sexy,

and we were both
pleasantly drunk.

We got a hotel room
that overlooked the ocean.

It was beautiful
and romantic.

Ahem, and then he...

changed.

What do you mean
he changed?

He became
extremely aggressive.

It was like
he was operating

some piece of machinery
or something.

It was just so rote.

I tried
to resist, but...

he was way bigger
than I was.

I eventually just stopped
resisting because...

I was actually afraid
that he would kill me.

He finished...

got up, and, um...

said goodbye.

And I said bye.

That was it.

Oh, my God.

But he gave me
my Ziggy, so...

Have you talked
to anybody about this?

Like a therapist
or a counselor or someone?

You're the first person
I've ever told.

Oh, honey.

There was a point
where I thought that
I had moved on,

that I had worked
through it and whatnot,

but, no.

I know that I'll never
be over it.

But I know that I have
to keep moving forward,
you know?

That kid is--

he's gonna have
a good life.

But the name
of his father

is not going on that
fucking poster board.

You're never
gonna believe this.
- Hey.

The theme
for the school party

is Elvis Presley
and Audrey Hepburn.

Oh, dear God, no.

Exactly.
Where's Amabella?

She's in her room.

I'm admiring
how beautiful...

Remember after the remodel,
we just walked around,

staring at how perfect
everything was?

Can't make
a perfect world.

No matter what,
shit happens.

It felt really nice
to be desired today.

It meant a lot.
Thank you.

Honey, I always
desire you.

Usually,
it just annoys you.

No.

You want to have sex
all the time.

Today,
you desired me.

Okay.

Okay.

We still don't know
the truth about Jane.

I'm just saying.

Madeline had anger issues.

Itty bitty ball of rage.

Wanna see her rage issues?

Call her "itty bitty."

Renata had the whole
kind of "sexy praying mantis,

bite your head off
after sex" thing going.

Oh, yeah, that Bonnie's
just the sweetest thing.

Yeah, right.

Celeste-- she is
an accomplished attorney,

and some people
in this town resent that.

Rich, beautiful,
madly in love.

Something had to be wrong.

Hey.

Hey.

What are you
thinking?

I'm trying to decide
whether I'm happy or sad.

People usually know.

I'm sad because--

because my husband
doubts my love for him.

And happy...?

I'm happy because
the first time

in a long time,
I'm hopeful.

For us.

Would you dance
with me?

I just want to hold you,

look into your eyes,

be in love with you,

and feel you
being in love with me.

Would you?

I have reason to suspect
Amabella Klein

is still being bullied.

And that Ziggy may be
the culprit.

For me the issue isn't how best
to talk to your husband,

but why you're afraid to.

I'm not afraid.

You're gonna hit me now?

Do you want me
to hit you, Celeste?

Sometimes I wonder.

You found him?

I think I found him

and it's Saxon Baker.

You're not
thinking of going down there?

Exactly how psychotic
do you think I am?

Mmm.

What is his name
for Christ's sake?

Go to your room!
That is not okay.

A lot of those reveals

with respect to Ziggy's dad

were doled out in bits
and pieces in the book.

I endeavored to do it
the same way.

Have you
talked to anybody about this?

You're the first person
I've ever told.

She's gonna talk about it,
and then we're gonna see it.

She's gonna have
an out-of-body experience

and this is how we're going
to show the rape.

The shoes, the specific heel

will allow us to have
the footsteps in the sand,

and have specific footsteps.

It was so heartbreaking.

And then she goes on the beach,
