How do you plan on making Wellsbury more senior-friendly?
Boomers and millennials alike want walkable amenities.
They want convenient transportation,
and both will be at the forefront of my Wellsbury Improvement Plan.
[cheering, applause]
Um, how do you propose to allocate Wellsbury's $360 million budget?
Definitely the schools.
I'm a mom, and children are the future.
[Paul] All of it?
All of it to the schools?
My mission is to build a better and more beautiful Wellsbury.
And 50% of my budget will go to the education system.
The rest will be directed towards enterprise funds like Green Gardens
that bring more money back into our town and to community preservation.
-[applause] -Thank you.
-[phone chimes] -[Maxine] There she is!
OK, show us the barrage of birthday notifications.
It's my dad. [chuckles]
"Glad you like the piano. Happy birthday, gummy bear."
-He calls me gummy bear. -That is so cute.
My dad calls me smelly. [chuckles]
-Clint really cracks himself up. -What's the plan for Saturday?
-I'm gonna have sex with Sophie. -Oh my God. Really?
-Yup. She's gonna swipe my V-card. -You guys just started dating.
Sophie's a senior. She's had sex with two different people.
She slept with this girl she was lifeguarding with
because she is not perfect enough. She needs that kind of imagery.
Then she dated Ben Brandeis and had sex with him too.
OK, but are you ready?
Ben Brandeis! Baywatch lifeguard!
Yeah, I think I'm ready to have sex with Hunter.
[Maxine chuckles] That makes sense.
After that display this morning, I think I'm ready to have sex with Hunter.
I mean, I'm 16 now, and he's my boyfriend. He's so hot, and he cares about me.
So, yeah, I want to.
Oh my God. Are we losing our virginities on the same night?
Are we a movie? [chuckles]
OK, this is so Blockers. I feel so Blockers right now.
This is perfect. We'll lose our virginities together.
Not in the same room together, 'cause that would be insanely creepy,
but doing it the same night is such a best friend bonding thing.
We'll have this when we're old and near death and can't chew our food.
-So cute. -[Norah] Oh!
FOMO! I want in! I can have sex with Jordan.
Boring! You guys have sex all the time. This is our first time. This is special.
No, it's not.
It just happens, and it isn't special, and you wake up, and nothing's changed.
[Maxine] I know.
Virginity is an antiquated construct meant to keep women down.
[Maxine and Norah snicker]
-What? It was a good Ginny impression. -[Maxine] Thank you so much.
-God! I am so amped for Saturday. -[Ginny] Me too.
But first, I have to survive spending the day with my mom.
She's planning something, so…
Whoopee!
[inhales sharply]
Oh my God. Look who it is.
Avoid eye contact, or she'll think we want her to sit with us.

That's what Ginny says.
When I'm nervous, she takes me on vacation.
Vacation?
In books. We go on vacation in books.
Well, that is a very fun sister you have.
She's the best.
She said that Wellsbury's weird.
I don't wanna go back to school.
Why not?
'Cause everyone thinks I'm weird.
Weird, huh?
-Is that weird? -Yes.
Hmm? Is this weird?
[chuckles] Yes.

but I can control how I act.

Think you'd feel better if you apologized?
Yeah. Maybe.
Good man.
This weekend is gonna be so relaxing.
It's just gonna be lobster and lobster rolls
and clam chowder and mussels.
I'm getting that shellfish is a large part of being in Maine.
-Yes. -[Georgia] Yeah.
[Joe] Hey.
-Are you, uh-- -Hey, Joe. Oh, sorry.
No, you go.
No, I was just…
You guys ready to order?
I'll take a cinnamon latte.

-About the other night… -The other night?
It was nothing. It was just a drunken nothing.
But we're good, right?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah. We're… We're good.
OK, good.
Um, so, can I take your order?
Oh, nothing for us right now. We're good.
Great.

-So many things. -Mm-hmm.
-The other night you got drunk with Joe. -Yup.
-Also, I did want that cinnamon latte. -Oh crap!
-Shoot. -Hey, Mommy. Georgia. Hi.
I'm so amped for tomorrow. Ginny has no idea.
We were all like, "Wait, what?
You're spending the day tomorrow with your mom? Whatever."
-Good work keeping it a secret. -She was so cute.
We decorated berry tree with balloons, and Hunter did this sweet tap dance.
He's such a king. Their love is so real, you know?
OK. No more coffee for you.
Have you ever been in love? Like, real love?
Yeah, I have.
I have too.
You call him Dad.
Yeah. How do you know?
When it's, like, Bachelor love, not Bachelor in Paradise kind of love.
Am I speaking? I know my lips are moving, but is sound coming out, or…
You think you're getting there with Sophie?
-[Georgia gasps] -No! No.
Just… Just how do you know?
It's about this spot right here.
When that spot smells like home to you,
that's when you're in love.
I've only been married for 18 years, but sure, ask Georgia.
-[chuckles] -[giggles] So, the party…
I told Abby and Norah to wear wigs, but if they don't, it's fine
because I have a box of wigs in my closet.
'Course you do!
I'm excited. It's gonna be cool. I think Ginny's gonna love it.
We're gonna have karaoke, pedicures, cake, a movie, sleepovers.
-Sleepover? -Yeah.
I asked Georgia to make it a sleepover
'cause your dad and I are in Maine this weekend,
and that way, you won't have to be in the house all alone.
Hmm. What about Marcus?
He'll be in the house all alone, but he likes to be alone.
[Georgia] Yeah.
Sleepover!
-It's fun! -So fun!
-So fun! [chuckles] -I'm so excited!
Yeah.
[Georgia] Ginny's really gonna love it.
Hey, Marty, it's me. Listen, I need a favor.
There's a PI sniffing around.
Ex-wife hired him about the will.
I'm worried.
I need you to do for me what you did in New Orleans.
Come on, Marty, please.
I promise, I will make it worth your while once this money comes through.
[sighs] Thank you.
Thank you so much, Marty.
OK.
So when's the last time you and the boys rode down to Houston?
You guys love breakfast for dinner.

It's his first day back since the incident.
By incident, you mean when he violently stabbed another student?
Are you excited for tomorrow? Big birthday surprise.
[Ginny] You know what? Why, Mom?
Why can't you have a single real conversation?
You act like nothing happened. You know what I want for my birthday?
I want you to treat me like an adult.
Because adults have temper tantrums and then stalk away from the table?

Did you lock my door? I didn't lock my door.
-I… -I'm gonna check that it's locked.
[Sophie groans softly]
-Forgot my door doesn't lock, so… -[Sophie chuckles]
[Sophie chuckles]
-[chuckles] -Hoo!
[Maxine chuckles]
[Maxine chuckles] Music.
-We need music. -Oh, yeah.

-Oh, I love this song. -Right?
It's so good.

Are you sure?
Yeah.
OK, I mean, like, in my mind, I am so ready mentally.
And physically, I'm ready. I just got a bikini wax.
I'm a naked mole rat down there, but I'm freaking out.
-I'm freaking out. I'm so sorry. -OK. Don't be.

Did you make a sex playlist?
-Yeah. -[both chuckle]
I definitely did.
It's got, like, 86 songs on it.
-I don't know why. -Oh my. How long do you think…
[Maxine] I don't know!
Damn, you are phenomenal at this.
Yeah, well, your baby only turns 16 once. You wanna remember it.
I don't have the fondest memories of this age.
[Nick] Hmm.
-So, Jesse… -Mmm.
You guys seem happy.
I know. He's better than Klonopin.
It's just…
You don't know him that well, right?
Be careful.
Make sure he's in it for the right reasons.
-You think I'm ugly? -What?
I know he's insanely hot, but are you saying he's out of my league?
[Georgia chuckles]
I'm just saying, don't fall too fast.
Look alive, girls. I've got 1,000 kinds of sprinkles, including penises,
that I'm pretty sure are for bachelorette parties.
[man on TV] That's why you killed him too!
Those ungrateful little shits!
Paul texted. He's on the way with marshmallows. Where are they?
[woman on TV] So much, it… it…
It flame… flames.
-Flames on the side of my face. -Oh-oh.
What is this?
"We need to make sure we get the hard shit and not just beer."
Oh my God. Maxine is having a party.
Oh my goodness.
So many emojis.
Girls, use discretion.
Oh. [slaps thighs]
Water one's never a good sign.
Boy emoji, hot dog,
arrow pointing into doughnut, camel, water.
These are all the sex ones. Go, Ginny. Who knew?
-Bad Ginny. Think about your choices. -[sighs]
Marshmallows have arrived.
We're not doing sundaes?
Hello, I'd like to report a noise violation.
There is a loud party on my street.
45 Bradley Street.
[clicks tongue] Savage.
Australian flag. I don't--
Down under?
Oh my God.
So?
-We didn't do it. -Neither did we.
-We did! -Hunter went down on me.
[Maxine and Norah] Aww!
-[Maxine] That's really sweet. -[Norah] I love that.
Hey, Marcus.
Happy birthday.
Hey! It's my birthday!
Everybody, let's drink!
Yes, I mean, I learned my lesson on Halloween,
so I'm not gonna drink, but I support you in all you do.
Happy birthday, Ginny!
Yeah!
[Norah] Whoo!
-Cheers! -[all] Ginny!
[Maxine squeals]
[funky dance music plays]
[R&B music plays]
Hey, everybody…
everybody…
I love you guys, OK?
You're… you're so amazing. Come here. Come here.
[Sophie] All right.
OK.
-[Maxine] Oh, she wants a… -[all gasp]
I'm fine! I'm fine.
I just wanted to say that before this, I never really had friends before.
And you guys,
Max and Norah
and Abby,
you're my family.
And Hunter…
Hunter, you're so kind and smart and sexy,
and you can do mad tricks with your tongue.
-[all] Oh! -[Hunter] OK. OK.
[Abby] Yeah. Come on!
[Hunter] That's enough of that. Careful.
-You OK? -[Maxine laughs]
Oh, OK.
-Cops. -[Maxine] Run! Run!
-[Abby] Oh God! -[Maxine] Run now! Run!
-[Sophie] It's your house. -[Maxine] They don't know that. Come on.
So I know how this looks. [chuckles]
They're taking the kids in cop cars down to the station.
OK, I see Ginny. [taps window]
Come on. Let's go.
Georgia, did you hear what I was saying to you?
Your daughter is being put into a police car.
Are we going to go get her, or…
Nope.
[tuts] OK, what's the plan?
Plan?
Look, Georgia, I know you're mad, but we can't just leave her.
I'm wiped.
I'm goin' to bed.
[sighs]
[muffled screaming]
[sighs]
You have to do something.
They… they can't just take her away.
You're 17, and you were caught running an underground gambling ring.
They've got you on that and money laundering.
I'll do anything.
Anything.
You need to prove that you can provide her a safe and stable environment.
Live under the roof of an adult, preferably a parent.
You'll need a job and a steady income.
All obtained legally.
Please, I can do all that. I promise.
[lawyer] Worst case, you do a few months in juvie.
In the meantime, Ginny will be placed in foster care.
Please help me.
I can't lose my daughter.
The state will revisit this in a couple months.
Wait!
I'm engaged.
I'm getting married.
He owns property, a hotel.
You didn't mention that. That might expedite things.
[cell door slams]
[door beeps]
[Ginny] Finally.
How you feelin', kid?
So, what, my mom didn't wanna come and get me?
-She did not. -[chuckles]
Are you gonna lecture me now?
Tell me how I should behave?
No. That's not my place.
And to be honest with you, I am not even sure
I should be here right now, but…
you're a good kid.
[scoffs]
-I'm drunk and in jail. -[chuckles]
You're a good kid, and you are a great sister.
What do you mean?
I see it.
The way he looks up to you. The way you take care of him. I see that.
Look, I love your mom, but I know this isn't always easy on you.
I've been there. I get it.
But Austin,
he is so lucky to have you.
Hm.
You love my mom?
[chuckles]
Yeah, I do…
but I haven't told her yet.
So if you could keep that to yourself, I would appreciate it.
[sniffles]
Come on. Let's get you home.
Hey, Paul…
I've never seen my mom this happy.
Come on.
-Easy there. -Mm-hmm.
You gonna make it?
So, this is the thanks I get?
Hi, Mom.
You're drunk.
I am sober…
like a judge.
Listen here, you little lunatic.
I am responsible for your friends when they're under my roof.
You can't sneak out, lie to me, and not tell me where you're going.
OK. OK, you are like… You are like the grand poobah of lies, OK?
You're like… You're like a lie pro.
You ever think that maybe
my secrets are to protect you?
To keep you happy and safe?
You wanna know everything, peach? You think you need to know everything?
Here it is, darling.
I was abused by my stepdad my whole childhood.
He molested me most nights with my mom asleep in the next room.
That's why I ran away when I was 14. I've been homeless.
I've been in jail. I…
[sniffles] Happy?
That's the big secret.
You were abused?
[sighs] Surprise!
Mom, I… [gasps]
Mom, I don't feel so good.
Toilet, stat.
I… Before this, I never really had friends…
-[Ginny sighs] -[door opens]
…before. But you guys…
How you feeling, champ?
[groans]
Doughnuts soak up alcohol.
Hashtag science.
Thanks.
Aww. Come here.
[sighs] I'm sorry I snuck out.
Mm.
And I'm sorry about the thing you said.
The abuse thing.
Is that why you're so strong?
Because I was abused as a kid?
No, I'm not a Game of Thrones character.
I would have been way stronger
if I didn't have to spend so much energy dealing with that shit.
I'd be the freaking president.
Are you OK now?
Depends on the day.
It never really leaves you,
but, yeah, I'm OK now.
Thinking about it…
makes my insides cringe.
But, hey, some memories are good, and some suck balls.
Here.
Look at Dad!
And you.
-You're babies. -[chuckles]
You're growing up, and I gotta start acting like it.
[sighs] And I will prove to you how mature I am
as soon as my head stops pounding out the song of that scary dancing baby
that gave me nightmares as a kid.
From the show you liked with the slutty lawyers?
Ooga chucka--
OK, I will pay you any amount of money to stop doing that.
[Georgia] Here.
Mm.

Oh, do you not want to? I just thought-- I mean, you told me…
No, no, no. Just give Mommy a moment.

Hunter went down on you.
Fun!
Then I got drunk and professed my undying love,
and Abby posted it on Snapchat.
OK, you tell her to take it down,

She was just protecting us,

Hey!
You get back in there, and you stand your ground, OK?
Tell that little shit he can't push you around.
Yeah?
OK.
Zach, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have stabbed you.
Zach…
Ugh! Gross!
[Ginny] Trust no one.
Sting first.
But I don't wanna go through life like that,
on the offensive, always fighting, always running.
I love my mom,

I miss my dad.
I wish he was here.
