Sloane, are you wearing Mom's perfume?

I just wanted to smell nice.

Like Mommy. CEECEE: She just died.

You can't wear that around Papa right now.

CEECEE: I'm gonna stay home today to take care of him.

SLOANE: But who's gonna take me to school?

Figure it out.

[exhales]

I got this.

PAUL: Wait!

Please don't leave us, Mommy!

How shall I ever carry on without you?

Not funny.

You forgot to say goodbye, so...

SLOANE: Right, okay.

Well, bye, baby.

Mommy has to go to work because you're a little distraction.

PAUL: Are you good?

You want us to maybe pay you a little lunch visit?

No! Nah, I'm slammed today.

Bringing you food is kind of the thing I'm known for.

Are you sure you don't want a little visit from baby?

Of course.

Kids don't really need their moms that bad.

I haven't seen my mom since I was eight and I'm fine.

Alright. Um...

How about I just send you some updates

throughout the day, then, huh?

Yes, that'd be great.

Are you sure this is how you want to spend

your vacation days?

I actually can't think of a better way to spend

my vacation than just chilling out with this little dude.

Okay, well, try to teach him something useful today,

would you? PAUL: No way, we're on vacation!

SLOANE: Thank you. PAUL: No problem.

SLOANE: Okay, bye.

Okay...

Hey honey, have you heard of this male birth control pill?

KATE: D-Denise?

[knock at door]

Hey, Doc. You, uh... got a minute?

ANNE: Hey, Seamus, right? SEAMUS: Yeah.

Um, yeah, you know-- I do.

I have a little window.

Come on in.

I really didn't think you would take me up on my offer.

SEAMUS: I struck a little deal with my parents.

I get out of anger management,

as long as I sign up for therapy.

Figured it might as well be with you.

We vibe. Don't you think?

Yeah.

Yeah, I do think, yeah.

Um...

I actually did donuts in my car the other day,

just to see what it was like.

SEAMUS: Wow. ANNE: Yeah.

What'd you think?

I kinda loved it.

Way more than I expected to.

Right?

It's just-- it was incredible just to...

give in.

To that pull.

Yeah, the pull. Yeah, that's it exactly!

Hey...

You, uh... you wanna try something else?

Um... [chuckles nervously]

I wanted to apologize for the other day.

You were right. I skimmed your book.

That was unacceptable.

But, look, baby's at home.

You have my full attention.

MAGGIE: I'm listening.

I spent the morning familiarizing myself

with "Tasking."

I gotta say, it spoke to me.

Okay.

Sorry, so when you say

that there is no such thing as multitasking, are--

[phone buzzes]

SLOANE: Sorry, just one sec.

Let me guess, text about baby?

Uh, yes, I did ask for regular updates

throughout the day, so...

Yeah, you sure it was my book you just read?

'Cause I don't think you're getting it.

I mean, you're saying it, but you're not doing it.

Can I ask you something?

Why didn't you take maternity leave?

SLOANE: [laughs]

Because I don't need it!

I've got it under control.

From what I'm seeing, you don't.

But you could.

That's "Tasking."

Focus on one task at a time,

put everything into that, and you'll be surprised

at how much more productive you are.

That is your recipe for success.

I mean, I left the baby at home, didn't I?

Physically, but mentally, baby's still right here with you

and slowing you down.

But realistically, I am still a mother.

Not within these four walls, you're not.

COLIN: Hey!

Sorry to interrupt, Dairy Queen, but it's milk o'clock!

Case in point.

I still have to pump every three hours.

MAGGIE: Maybe you don't.

You can train your body to go for longer stretches.

Your body works for you.

Isn't that a little extreme?

I get it.

And I never say in the book that it's easy.

But if you want to compete with your male counterparts,

then this is what you've gotta do.

What I can tell you is that this approach works.

Okay, you know what, Colin?

Maybe later.

COLIN: But... it's been hours.

Go!

MAGGIE: Alright.

Impressive!

Why don't we start again?

No, sorry, Doc, I gotta go meet my girlfriend.

Yeah, we actually just started dating.

Oh, is it serious, or just like a fling?

I dunno. We're kinda just...

Nope. No, all good.

that a good product is a good product?

I don't get it!

And how does that make you feel?

DENISE: Crazy!

Kate, this makes me feel crazy!

Yeah, I bet it does.

How so? Tell me specifically.

DENISE: I don't get what the hard sell is.

I mean, there's no headaches or migraines.

There's no blood clotting. No risk of high blood pressure.

It is way less of a burden than what women put up with!

What else, Denise?

This is not a controversial take.

This is just levelling the playing field.

Push in slowly, please.

DENISE: Why wouldn't we give people options?

This product will improve lives.

Women have been shouldering this responsibility for years.
