Introducing the new spokesperson
for Wag and Bone Dog Food,
Mr. Jack Mc...
- Line... - You know my last name, Karen.
Honey, I did Ayahuasca with shaman last night.
I don't know if it's raining or Tuesday.
You really booked a commercial?
Technically, I probably booked it.
They unofficially told the gal who's basically my agent
that it's between me
and approximately three other guys,
so...... it's in the bag.
Congrats, Jack.
Now, will you be playing the dog or the human?
See, guys, this is why I do it.
All the years of people saying, "You're too good for that job.
You should be leading a bigger life."
"Sir, this is a library. Put your pants back on."
Karen's taking me out to celebrate.
I thought you had a temp job today.
Oh, that's right. I forgot.
I picked up a day as a rehearsal pianist.
God, why did you make me a triple threat?
Honey, call in sick. Easy-peasy. Check it out.
Chris, I can't make it in today.
I sprained my ankle.
You know that Grace is still here?
Jesus, does that woman ever work?
Hasta la homos.
I don't wanna work today.
It's so expected.
You're my lawyer. Get me out of this.
In the case of McFarland v. Reality,
the Supreme Court ruled, grow up.
- Adults go to work. - Why aren't you at work?
Oh, I scored a ticket to the Princess Diana gown exhibit
at the Met before it opens to the public.
I am freaking out.
- Oh... - You look shmancy.
If I was straight, I'd stare at you like a creep
and tell you to smile more.
I am going to the gynecologist.
What's with the faces? You both came out of vaginas.
I didn't.
I am a Platinum Star Gay.
Gay-splain, please?
A Gold Star Gay has never been with a woman.
Platinum haven't been with a woman,
and they were born via C-section.
Hence they've never touched a vagine.
It's all in his book, "Men Are From Mars;
Who Cares Where Women Came From?"

Where am I? What's going on?
You. I know you.
- You work here? - I'm Sheila, your nurse.
I used to work at the sperm bank,
where you tried to have a gay baby...
or the donor was gay. I don't know, it was super gay.
What happened to me?
The doctor found some weird cells,
and so he did a biopsy on your left breast.
Wait, left...
Oh, that's the big one.
- So, are you telling me I have... - Cancer.
I mean, you might have cancer.
There's a very, very, very slim chance that you have it.
You're supposed to lead with that.
I'm... I'm taking this really well.
Why am I taking this really well?
Because you're coming out of a very heavy sedation.
We called your emergency contact.
- He's waiting outside. - Oh, good, I need Will.
Hey, Grace.
Leo?
Hi, I'm Jack, the rehearsal pianist from Temporary Players.
- I'm looking for Alvin. - I'm Alvin.
Churro?
Uh, one, two, three, four, five...
I'm sorry, I can't do it. Thank you though.
Um, so where does the magic happen?
Oh, we had to cancel the magic program,
'cause the money disappeared.
No, the theatrical magic,
where thespians work onstage, and "lespians" build the sets.
If you talking about the theater, it's right there.
I'm sorry, um, but in the words of
my dear friend Amanda Bynes,
where am I?
This is the Bronx Boys & Girls Club.
You're teaching an afterschool drama class.
- Starts at 3:00. - Alvin, was it?
- Alvin with an A? - Yep. Mm-hm.
Alvin as in, "Alvin!"
Don't do that.
- Alvin... - Mm-hm.
I used to teach, now I do.
In fact, I'm an almost working actor again.
You probably don't recognize me
from the regional dog food commercial I'm about to get,
but I certainly can't consider teaching kids
in an afterschool drama program,
but I think what you do here is great.
- You know, it's great, great. - Oh, yeah, it's best.
You know the Bronx silver service credo:
Come for the free internet, stay for the Obamacare...
For now.
I don't get that. I'll see you later.
Pickles!
Pickles to heck!
I'm not familiar with that expression,
but I'm guessing you didn't get that commercial.
When you guess, you make an ass of you and me.
Well, you wanna teach, pickles?
'Cause it sounds like you're not gonna do.
How heavy was that sedation?
Because I feel like
my ex-husband is standing right there.
I think I'm still listed as your emergency contact.
How could that be? I told Karen to...
oh, that's how.
I'm sensing some tension here.
- Who cheated? - He did.
Wow, seriously? That was just a shot in the dark.
It's a little bit more complicated than that.
Is it?
Acting is rejection, rejection, rejection.
Hope?
No, rejection.
So if any one of you can picture yourselves doing anything,
anything other than acting,
I'm gonna have to ask you to leave right now.
You, what do you wanna do?
I wanna be a fireman.
Oh, really?
Get out!
Not... not out, out. You're a kid, that's crazy.
Just go to the bleachers.
If I seem intense,
it's for one reason and one reason only, 'kay?
I don't wanna be here, and I'm really sad.
That's two things.
Jordan, get out!
I can't bear to look at ya!
Not out, out. You're a kid, that's crazy.
Just go to the office. Just go to the office.
Look, if you have any hope of making it in this business,
you have to give me your undivided attention, okay?
Fully commit here and now.
You can't let anything distract you from...
oh, my God, Karen's here. What are you doing here?
Well, I thought about going into work,
but Grace is at the lady doctor,
and if there's anything I don't wanna deal with,
it's Grace and her angry inch.
Honey, I'll just wait for you to finish,
and maybe we'll find a nasty roof party
and do a little beep-boop.
I didn't wanna say Molly in front of the kids.
Look, thank you for bringing me home.
Obviously, I'm going to change my emergency contact.
That's all right. It ain't nothing.
- I forgot you did that. - What?
When you wanna defuse tension, you...
Turn up the Cajun spices.
"Why, I'm just a handsome po' boy from N'Awlins.
I'm just eating my bowl of zydeco."
So, a po' boy is a sandwich,
and zydeco is a form of music,
and I am from Baton Rouge,
which is a completely different accent,
which I lost years ago.
I say, I say, yes, you did.
I'm not Foghorn Leghorn.
But I'm gonna give you a pass, 'cause I know that you're
worried about your test results.
I'm not worried.
Everything's gonna be fine.
You know, it's okay if you tell me, Grace.
Seriously, I'm not worried about it.
I'm fine.
You can go now, Leo.
One of the good things about being single
is you learn how to get through a crisis alone.
- Hey. - I almost died today!
What?
What are you talking about?
I had an emergency biopsy of my boob.
- The big one? - Yeah!
I'm gonna get the results later today.
- Grace, that must've been so... - Terrifying.
- Did it... - They knocked me out.
- Because you're a big... - A big baby.
Yeah, yeah. Come on, sit. 'Kay, sit down.
- How do you feel? - Not good!
I might have cancer.
- I smell toast. - Wh...
I made toast.
Wait, you're eating bread?
It's not a cheat day. What's wrong?
No, I don't wanna make this about me.
You... you're dealing with something real.
- Have you been crying? - No...
I went to the Princess Diana exhibit,
which was amazing...
But I bought remastered DVDS of the wedding and the funeral,
and I watched them back to back, and now I'm eating my feelings.
How could you do that to yourself?
She really was like a candle in the wind.
Speaking of just hanging out in the wind,
- I'm here. - Leo?
- How you doing, Will? - What are you doing he...
oh, please, God, tell me you're not back together,
unless you are, in which case...
Yay.
He's still my emergency contact.
What? I thought you told Karen to...
oh, yeah, that makes sense.
You know, you should've probably been
her emergency contact, even when we were married.
Good luck with the test results, Grace.
Will, it was... it was good seeing you.
What did he mean by that?
I think he just meant it was nice to see me,
and he understood that my feelings about...
No, the thing before that.
What did you mean by Will being my, uh, emergency contact
- when we were married? - Grace, it doesn't matter.
No, just say it.
You never shared anything with me.
You always ran to Will.
Wasn't that the problem with our marriage?
You could never be in a relationship with me,
because you're always gonna have this weird thing with Will.
Oh, so that's it? I don't get a last word?
No, you get the last word
by bringing up who gets the last word.
Well, how about we're done talking
and no one gets the last word?
- Fine. - You did it again!
You know what, I want the last word,
so you get on that elevator,
and you stand there silently,
until the door closes in your face.
- You know, this is... - Ay... oh... oh... ooh...
Last word.
- Bye, Grace. - Dah...
Why is your friend at the lady doctor?
Why does anyone go to any doctor?
Fear and pills.
But you mind your own business.
Do you know how I could find a doctor like that?
Ask your mother.
I live with my dad and brothers.
Oh, boo hoo, I didn't ask for your life story.
You're mean.
You have no idea.
Why do you need to go to the doctor anyway?
Mind your own business.
Hm...
Brava.
But seriously, you can tell me.
I got a working relationship
with every doctor on Park Avenue.
Come on, what's going on? What's the deal?
Oh. Fine.
You're gonna be like that? All right.
If you're not gonna tell me what's wrong with you,
then we are done.
There is nothing left to say, period.
Ah-ho.
Okay, Jordan, listen...
This isn't "The Miracle Worker," okay?
You need to make actual noises with your mouth.
- I don't think I can do it. - What you're having right now
is what we in the trade call performance anxiety,
and what my friend Will calls date night.
Nothing? No, nothing.
This guy gets it.
Mm, okay. Look, everybody gets scared,
but you can't stop trying.
When you're an actor, you gotta believe in yourself,
even when you don't.
? Ben ?
? The two of us need look ?
? No more ?
? We both found ?
? What we were looking for ?
? With a friend ?
? To call my own ?
? I'll never be alone ?
? And you my friend will see ?
? You've got a friend in me ?
I just got the chills.
I am an incredible teacher.
Okay, I found the perfect activity to distract us
while we wait for the test results.
We are going to build a gingerbread house.
Don't know why. Just called to me.
What are... what are you eating? What... what are you eating?
Strawberry ice cream,
but I'm using chicken satay as the spoon.
It must be bad news, Grace.
We're gonna get through this together.
I'll shave my head. Do you need me to shave my head?
No, no, the test was negative. I don't have cancer.
Oh, thank, God, I have a weird skull.
Hey, but this is great news!
Come on... ... this is great.
Whoo!
Why am I whooing alone?
Is Leo right?
Did our relationship ruin my marriage?
Yeah, you got a little strawberry...
Was I supposed to go to him instead of you?
- Just... just... stop, stop. - Are we weirdly close?
Stop, stop... stop talking for a second.
There.
I believe you were asking if we are weirdly close.
- Yeah, are we? - Yes!
But here, you know what this is like?
Oh, is this gonna have
something to do with Princess Di?
I think we both know the answer to that.
Remember how we both hated Camilla Parker Bowles?
We were young. We rushed to judgment.
Exactly. Everyone thought she was the villain,
because she broke up this storybook romance.
- Well, do not forget the hats. - I wish I could.
But all she really did was... was help Charles realize
the storybook wasn't true.
Wait, who's Princess Diana in this situation? Leo?
Sadly, yes.
And I'm Camilla.
Here, sit down.
The point is,
no happy marriage ends in divorce.
- Ah... - I mean, I was there.
You tried everything you could.
Months of therapy.
Grace, you tried golf.
"Is the ball in the hole?" "No."
"How 'bout now?" "No."
"Is it lunchtime?" "No."
You only came to me
when you already knew it was over,
just like I came to you when things with Vince were over.
You're right.
So, you let Leo think what he wants.
- You're right. - What matters is
- you know the truth. - Exactly.
You don't have to explain anything to him.
Hell no.
You're gonna go explain things to him, aren't you?
Uh, Princess Jambalaya's not getting the last word.
All right, we good?
- Everything go okay? - Yeah.
You do everything I told you to do?
- Yeah. - Good stuff. Have a nice life.
Honey, you have somebody you can talk to
about these things, right?
Like a husband or a lover?
What? No.
Why does it always have to be me?
Honey...
I know what just happened was a big deal.
It isn't fun, but this day never is.
For me, it was the summer of fift...
sixt... '79.
I was sitting on my front porch,
listening to my transist... my Walkma...
my iPod shuffle...
And then it happened.
Well, I just wanted to run into my room and hide,
but my mom's idiot boyfriend
screamed to the whole neighborhood, "Hey!
Lois's kid just became a woman."
And then my mom celebrated
by opening her bottle of good scotch
and giving everybody in the neighborhood a drink,
everyone except the anxious 12-year-old
who needed it the most.
Look, Tasha, the point is,
I survived, and so will you.
You're not really mean, are you?
How dare you!
Get over here!
Mind your own business.
What are you doing here, Grace?
You and I did not get divorced
because Will and I are too co-dependent
or whatever.
Oh, crap.
I see you're still unaware of your wingspan.
Well, at least you're not blaming me and Will.
Well, technically, you came here to talk about Will, so...
You know what, can I just please finish?
I'd let you, but you're putting his gall bladder
where his liver goes.
One drink, and he will explode.
Stop being charming.
You are wrong about our marriage.
It did not end because of Will and me.
- You're absolutely right. - I am?
I mean, I know I am, but... I am?
Grace, it ended because of you.
Me? Me?
You were the one who joined Doctors Without Borders,
met a blonde, and it became Doctors Without Pants!
You see, you bring this up every time.
Well, it was a big deal!
Well, that was our first marriage, Grace.
The second time, I was in it, okay?
I tried.
But... but you never let me back in.
I couldn't complain, because I was the cheater.
I... I didn't have a leg to stand on.
You're right.
I am?
I-I mean, I-I know I am, but I am?
I tried so hard, Leo,
but I just couldn't forgive you.
- I know you tried. - I did.
I took up golf for you.
I hate golf.
"Can I get back on the cart now?" "No."
"How 'bout now?" "No." "Are we the only Jews?" "Yes."
Now I'm sad.
We could've not played golf together.
I guess we just got our signals crossed.
Yes, we did.
Okay...
I guess, um,
I'm gonna go.
- 'Kay. - Oh, uh, one more thing,
I... I don't have cancer.
I know. I ta... I talked to Will.
Hey, Grace...
you took my heart.
You took my heart too, Leo...
But I believe
that we both are gonna find love again,
with the person we're supposed to be with.
No, I mean, you took my heart...
From the model.
Yeah, you, uh...
You put it in your purse.
I mean, I-I'm sure it was an accident,
but, you know, they... they kill you on the replacement parts.
You so set me up.
We always had that, didn't we?
We certainly did.
- And that ain't nothing. - Sure ain't.
See you around, Adler.
Bye, Leo.
Last word.
