01x10 - I Think She Will

[bunniefuu]

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

- Good morning, Las Vegas.
- Oh, Jesus Christ.

- Can you hear me okay?
- Yeah, it's very loud.

- Softer.
- Too loud.

Right. Good.

Now, it is my pleasure
to introduce to you

the CEO and Chairman

of the Palmetto Casino and Resort,

the wickedly handsome Marty Ghilain.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

Thank you, Madame Mayor.

- I think I'll just project.
- [LAUGHTER]

I remember the first time
I saw Deborah Vance perform.

Hey. What happened?

I thought we were all
gonna drive together.

I promised Deborah I'd stop being

"Little Miss Seatbelt Bitch."

Got me.

You two have been sharing
a schedule for weeks now.

Well, she's being kinda weird.

Like she's avoiding me.

It might be about your signature scent.

- Did you switch it up recently?
- What?

Well, last summer, I thought
that she was mad at me,

but it turns out that she
just hates Acqua di Gio, so...

Was one of the best
decisions I ever made.

- Huh.
- She helped put

Vegas residencies on the map,

and now we're literally
putting her on the map.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

So even though tonight
is her farewell show...

- CROWD: Aww.
- She's not going anywhere.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

Mayor?

[CLEARS THROAT]

[FEEDBACK WHINES]
It is my honor and my duty...

- Oh, my God.
- f*ck.

To present to you all
Las Vegas's newest street,

Deborah Vance Drive.

I'm so annoyed.

I cannot believe I have to
rush to Vegas last minute

I'm sorry. I know.

When we get there,

drop me off at Arrivals, not Departures.

- Drop you off?

I'm on your flight, babe.

A and B. You prefer the middle.

Wait.

No, I don't prefer the
middle. And what do you...

I can't sit in the middle.

You're not coming on the trip.

What're you talking about?

I told my dad that it was,
like, my first business trip,

and he was, like, so proud.

But I can cancel the ticket.
There's, like, no problem.

No, no, no. It's fine.
It's fine. It's fine.

I feel like I'm gonna throw up.

Just come. Just come.

- Really?
- Yeah.

Yay! [LAUGHS]

No, no.

I'm gonna be talking

about on stage before.

- Okay.
- And, you know,

it might not be the easiest to hear

or to have out there, so
that's why I'm telling you.

Awesome. Thank you. Got it.

No, I'm telling you

because if you don't want
me to do this show, I won't.

Right. Yeah.

Kinda like how it was my choice

to do that Weight Watchers ad with you?

- Like that?
- No.

I mean it. I'm asking you, DJ.

Oh. Okay.

Well, thank you. I appreciate that.

You've always known

So I'm sure that if
you think you should,

then... then you should.

Great. Okay.

- Then I will.
- Okay.

Did I ever tell you I get recognized

from that Weight
Watchers ad all the time?

- No.
- Yeah.

A woman in the airport stopped me

and said that we inspired her.

- Oh.
- I know. It was so sweet.

I almost didn't tell her

Easy. Almost too easy.

Deborah's been so
focused on this new show

that everything I do takes a back seat.

I'm sorry.

I know you don't like when
I just complain about her.

No, I don't mind that you
talk to me about Deborah.

I just... I feel like I'm not the
only one you should be talking to.

- You should talk to her.
- Oh, no.

I've seen Deborah fire drivers
for stopping at a yellow light.

I'm not about to go there.

Besides, I wouldn't
even know what to say.

Okay, so let's practice.

Tell me what you'd tell Deborah.

Come on, you know I
hate this therapy stuff.

It's not from therapy. It's
from mental health TikTok.

- That's even worse.
- Okay, come on. Do it.

[SIGHS] Okay.

Deborah, I have prioritized

your life and business ahead of my own.

And now you're doing
this whole new thing

that I'm not a part of,
and it doesn't feel like

you even think about how it affects me.

I'm starting to feel like
I'm putting my life on hold

for someone who isn't
fully considering me.

You're so cute.

That will not be her response.

- It might. I mean...

Our relationship is that

Paychecks? Oh, my God.

First of all, it's direct deposit.

And also, this is why
I had to lie to you

about leaving for that job interview.

Because your ego doesn't allow you

to take in information
like a normal human being.

No one's allowed to
communicate honestly with you.

And if they do, you either
shut them out or push them away

or, I-I don't know,
hit them with your car.

- Almost hit them with my car!
- Not a great defense.

Fine. Whatever. I f*cked

But please, don't throw away
everything we worked so hard on

just because you're mad at me.

This isn't about you.

I just don't want to do
it. I know what works.

The old stuff works, so
that's what I'm doing.

The stuff we've worked on is good.

And it's important that you do it!

You don't get to tell
me what's important!

You're risking nothing
here. This is just a blip.

You can get on a plane tomorrow.

This is just gonna be a funny story

about a job you once had.

show dwelling on the past!

I think that's why I started
doing comedy in the first place.

Because it was just a way
for me to feel connected

to people who thought
about things the way I did.

But now I'm just like,

maybe I shouldn't shape
my entire existence

around a response to a shitty childhood.

That's not a very good
reason to pursue a career.

I don't know if that's true.

I mean, what's a good
reason to pursue any career?

Your grandfather owned a cement truck,

and your name's already
on the side of it?

Yeah, there's that.

I'm not sure.

But I gotta figure something else out.

'Cause I'm done.

Well, no.

You can't quit.

You're too good.

[SOFTLY] I'm sorry.

[SOBBING]

You know, crying...

gives you wrinkles.

You need to learn how to cry

without moving your forehead at all.

It's like...

- That's how you cry?
- Yeah, I trained myself.

I'm a pro.

[LAUGHS] You are.

Plus, you know, a little injection
here and here doesn't hurt either.

[LAUGHS]

Oh, sh*t. The show.

How did it go?

Well, I did the new material.

And?

I bombed.

You're joking.

Well, a few things worked, but...

yeah, I mostly bombed.

Oh, no.

Did you come all the way
here to bury me with my dad?

No. No, I... I bombed.

And I loved it.

I haven't felt that way in years.

The show didn't work, but it will.

The pieces are there.

I just have to figure out
how to put them together.

And the best way to do that
is to work it out on the road.

So you're gonna go on tour again.

Yes.

With you. I hope.

I mean, the show was
your idea, after all.

And you, like, can't do it without me?

Oh, I could absolutely
do it without you.

But, you know, it would probably be,

you know, a lot less fun.

Okay, but you really can't hit people.

I know. I-I'm so sorry.

So are you ever gonna do that again?

- No.
- And are you gonna switch

to a health plan that covers dental?

No.

[LAUGHS]

Deal.

Hi. I only have a second.

I'm on my way back
to Vegas with Deborah.

Well, that's interesting,
because you know

those British writers that
Kayla had you meet with?

I just got a call from their agent

about a very intense and revealing email

you apparently sent about Deborah.

What the f*ck did you do, Ava?

- We're cleared for takeoff.
- Thank you.

Uh, Jimmy, I gotta call you back.

Yeah, you'd better.
