Why are labels a bad thing?

I am "Scarlet" magazine's first

I screwed up.

I've already booked
an interview on NY14.

So "Incite" was factually inaccurate.

When we sensationalize people,

that story gets lost.

I made a mistake when I thought
you would be a good fit.

Aw, you brought me

and tequila.

Well, you guys

Thank you, but seriously... I'm fine.

I mean...

I got fired. Big deal.

You're nobody until you get fired.

Look.

It's my plan for the day.

- She made a list.
- Of course she did.

Yes, I made a list because I'm a writer.

- So no tequila?

Uh, no. No tequila.

All right.

- Have a great day.

Terrific-looking issue

positivity is evergreen.

- Good.
- There's just one thing.

This piece on being fit and fat...

We're just normalizing the notion
that there's no one ideal body type,

which I think is a very
important message to convey.

Body positivity is about self-love,

self-acceptance, which is very healthy.

you're really swimming upstream.

You should pull it.

You're right... about all of that.

And you're right about this.

This concept, it's...

it's not working.

It's childish, right?

It's not connecting with me either.

Yeah, it's...

Ugh, this was supposed to be easy.

Okay, um...

well, we can fix it.

If Oliver were here, he would improvise.

This is our body positivity issue.

We could use a real woman, not a model.

[upbeat music]

- That's unexpected.
- Yeah...

and crazy, so shoot this

in case Oliver tries to kill me.

Um, but do it fast and leave
us some time at the end.

Okay, you got it.

- Hey.
- Hey, uh,

look, Sutton, I know that I...

I put you in a really
awkward position...

Oh, don't worry about it.

I know you were just trying
to help your girlfriend,

and, honestly, something
really cool came out of it.

- Well, that's cool.
- Yeah.

What came out of it?

- [phone chimes]
- Oh.

- Tiny Jane's coming.
- Oh, good, we can use her.

We're getting naked.

Okay, cool.

Okay, homies.
Everybody good with the plan?

- Both: Mm-hmm.
- No makeup.

No airbrush. Just embracing the flaws.

Pimples and moles
and stretch marks, oh, my.

Just happy to be with my girls.

What do you think Oliver's gonna say?

Hopefully that he loves it. Otherwise...

I don't want to think about otherwise.

Hey, no matter what, I'm proud of you.

I'm proud of all of us.

Is everyone ready?

- Adena.
- What?

I am making my models more comfortable.

And we don't have all day.
Drop those robes, girls.

Everyone ready?

- She ready.
- Ah, showtime.

that's something that I wish
that I saw in magazines

when I was growing up.

That was so great.

And we were together.

That was the best part.

Come back.

This is where you belong, Jane.

So what are you gonna do?

Go see Jacqueline

I didn't hear you come in last night.

Yeah, you know, fashion closet

Jane was pounding liquid courage.

How is Jane?

With any luck, she'll be...

back at "Scarlet" soon.

It was a fun shoot.

- Yes, it was.

I was happy to be a part
of your "Scarlet" world,

even if it was brief.

It was brief but...

- definitely memorable.
- Mm-hmm.

I had no idea you were a full-on nudist.

Oh, well, now you know.

And thank you

for putting me up for the job,

for being so supportive.

Felt good to be working.

Well, you know I got your back, always.

I heard, um,

you and Sutton fighting...

about me.

Yeah, Adena...

It's okay.

She wasn't wrong.

You know, we are different people.

But we both want you to be happy.

And you're at your happiest
when your friends are too.

And I love that about you.

So don't ever let me come

Okay.

All right.

So what about these sheets, though?

Do they have to keep coming between us?

Oh, they seem unnecessary.

They're so stupid. I hate them.

♪ ♪

- Jacqueline.
- Cleo.

Do we have a meeting?

No. No, no.

Just wanted to come and check in.

I heard from the board.

You're doing a letter from
the editor this month?

I am. In fact, I'm planning
on making it a monthly feature.

Oh! You know, this magazine hasn't done
an editor's letter since the '90s.

Well, what's old is new again.

So tell me, what is
this inaugural letter about?

The notion that fit and fat
don't need to be mutually exclusive

and embracing our bodies
is the healthiest thing we can do.

You know, I should thank you.

In trying to figure out the best thing
to replace the "Fit and Fat" story,

I realized that I had some
experiences I wanted to share.

I have not written for a long time.

And getting back to it was invigorating.

Turns out I still have
a lot I want to say.

[both chuckle]

Well, I cannot wait to see
what you have in store.

I appreciate the support.

Now, if you'll excuse me.

I know it isn't what

Oh, and here I thought we

I think they're fierce and real

and important.

I think this is what our

reflections of themselves,
not some airbrushed...

I never said I disagreed.

They're captivating.

And they fit the real-people,

I don't know her.

You should.

We should use her again.

Well, she's certainly on my radar now,

So I saw your interview on NY14.

That was quite a moment.

Yeah, it was.

Victoria doesn't know who she's lost.

Uh, that's actually why
I wanted to talk to you.

Going to "Incite" was...

a huge mistake.

I... [sighs]

I really screwed up.

No, don't beat yourself up.

If anyone's to blame, it's Victoria.

An editor is supposed
to support their staff,

not exploit them.

Yeah, I know that now.

I took you for granted.

I took for granted
how special "Scarlet" is,

how empowered I felt every day
walking through that lobby,

how challenged I was when you pushed me
outside of my comfort zone,

and the community that you fostered.

It wasn't just a job. It was home.

I left without truly understanding
how lucky I was.

I know that no one has been hired
to replace me yet.

When you left,

the board made an executive decision

to reallocate your salary
towards the relaunch of the dot-com.

I don't have any room in my
budget to bring you back.

Oh.

Okay, um...

well, is there any room
to revisit the issue?

I mean...

you're Jacqueline.

You always get what you want.

I could ask.

And I could...

probably get the money.

But I'm not sure that that
is the best thing for you right now.

[somber music]

You have some growing up to do, Jane.

You need to live in this failure.

You can't be afraid of it.

I'm not here because I'm afraid.

I'm here because I love "Scarlet."

Mm, I think, if you're really
being honest with yourself,

it's both.

You just lost your job,

so you want to feel safe,

and you think that if I fix this,

everything will... [clicks tongue]

get right back on track.

what you wanted to hear,

but this is going to be

an invaluable learning
experience for you.
