Previously on The L Word: Generation Q

The one is still out there for you.

- [ALICE] Do they know you, too?
- [DANA] In a way.

[DANI] I'm actually throwing
Fletcher's album release party

- in a couple weeks.
- Can I come?

Yeah, everyone can come.

You want to find a sperm donor?

- [MICAH] What are we looking for?
- [MARIBEL] I guess you?

No f*cking results?

- [EXHALES]
- You got to be kidding me.

[BELLA] So, who's the guy?

[ANGIE] He's my creative
writing instructor.

- [BELLA] A secret boyfriend?
- [ANGIE] Well, he asked me to go away

- with him.
- [BELLA] OMG.

- Are you gonna do it?
- I want to, but...

- You've never had sex.
- Technically, no.

[DANI] I just kissed
this really hot person.

- [DRE] Hey, everybody. I'm Dre.
- [SOPHIE] That's the person

- I slept with when...
- No.

[SOPHIE] Yes.

[SHANE] I'd like another
chance to get better at this.

- I want to earn your trust back.
- My mom d*ed. [CRYING]

[SOPHIE] I love you. But I am
not my full self when I'm with you.

- Um, what does that mean?
- It's over, Finley. It has to be.

[SOPHIE] Oh, Micah,
make me a tropical one.

Hi, hi.

- [MICAH] Hey.
- [SOPHIE] Hi.

God, there's got to be a bag
of peas in here or something.

Did you still want me to
arrange for a car service

to pick you all up for tonight or...

Yes! Oh, my God, that feels so good.

[DANI] Oh.

- Oh, my God.
- Sorry, what am I looking at?

[SOPHIE] I...

- got my nipples pierced last night.
- [DANI] No, you didn't.

- [CHUCKLES]
- Yes, I did!

You did not get your nipples pierced.

- Yes, I did!
- [MICAH] Told her not to.

Oh, the peas are helping.

[DANI] Oh, my goodness.

She is... she's single.
She's got her tetas pierced.

- I know.
- Who is she?

Sophie, with a capital S, baby.

- [MICAH] Sophie.
- Wow.

[SOPHIE] That's what doing dr*gs
in the desert will do to you.

Hi. You're still coming tonight, right?

I haven't been able to
convince Maribel yet,

but I'm trying.

- I really want to meet Fletcher.
- I'm still coming,

and I would love that car
service too, by the way.

- How would you feel if Dre came?
- [BLENDER WHIRRING]

I-I just thought it'd be
a good way for them to meet

- some contacts, but if it's too soon...
- [WHIRRING CONTINUES]

Sorry, strawberry seeds.

I just hate when they
get stuck in my teeth.

It's fine. It is totally fine.

- [DANI] Are you sure?
- I promise.

You know, I just... it might be
like a little soon. You know, to me.

Well, good thing you're not
coming then. [CHUCKLES]

[DANI] Okay. I'm not
gonna ask about Finley, but...

[CLUCKS TONGUE] I don't know.
I guess I'm a little

- numb about it right now.
- [DANI] Okay.

It could also be the
frozen peas on your chest.

[SOPHIE] Oh... You're so
funny. Look at you, funny.

Oh, thank you. Nice
and cool and refreshing.

- Okay, show me. I want to see.
- You want to see? I'll show you.

- It's gnarly as hell.
- Hold the other one.

- Micah, cover your eyes!
- Cover your eyes.

- [SOPHIE SCREAMS]
- Oh! Oh, my.

- [MICAH] Is it done? Okay.
- Those look really good.

- [INDISTINCT CHATTER]
- [OPTIMISTIC MUSIC]

[TOM] Alice! Hey, girl.

- Tom. Hey.
- Ow!

- Oh, Jesus Christ.
- Sorry.

- Are you okay?
- Yeah, you might want to put...

- What? It's a door.
- An "out of order" sign

on that side because

I just looked like a bird
crashing into a window.

But a lot of birds fly
into a lot of win...

It's a... The stats are pretty dark.

- Anyway. Hi!
- Hi!

- [LAUGHING] Oh, my gosh.
- I don't know what we're talking about.

- Hi.
- Yeah. Well, you look good.

- Thanks, you too.
- Thank you.

I got the pens, the big pens.

- Oh.
- I loved them.

- Yeah.
- Thanks.

You know, I was worried
this would be weird,

seeing you again, since the
last time was at the Eiffel Tower

when you rejected my
marriage proposal. But I'm...

that was a long time ago.
That was... [SCOFFS] What was that?

But the view was like...

- And what a view it was.
- Right, right?

- Like...
- Yeah.

- Do you want to go in my office?
- Thought it was the perfect moment.

- Yeah, sure, let's do that.
- Okay.

So I've been... [GROANS]
I've been thinking a lot.

- Uh-huh.
- About us.

- Mm-hmm.
- And just kind of how it...

- Let me get this door for you.
- Yeah.

- Uh...
- Say no more.

- Just...
- I got it.

You're so transparent.

- I am?
- Yeah.

You're ready for book two and
you couldn't do it without me.

Right? [CLUCKS TONGUE]
I got you. That's why I'm here.

- I brought the notes and everything.
- Right.

[ANGIE] So we're
going to go to his reading,

and then, we're gonna go to dinner,

and then, we're gonna
go back to his hotel.

- Wow, bitch.
- Yeah.

POV: you're a famous author's wife.

- [LAUGHS]
- I don't know.

It's just kind of
crazy how ready I feel.

It's like, um, it's all coming together.

Mm-hmm.

- Angelica?
- Oh.

Did you make that man a chapbook?

- Is it so stupid?
- Oh, it's so hot.

- What is hot about it?
- [LAUGHING] Oh, God.

- Let me see it.
- Don't look in it.

- Don't look in it.
- Oh, my God.

- Are you in love?
- No.

- I don't know. Unless...
- [LAUGHS]

I don't know. No.

- I-I just feel like it could be.
- Mm.

- I don't know.
- [LAUGHS]

- Let's just see how tonight goes first.
- Okay. Mm.

Well, maybe you don't have to wait
till the end of the day to do it.

- Mm-hmm. Ooh, ooh.
- Oh, that's too much.

- It's too much.
- Ooh. No, no.

- Is it not too much?
- It's just right. Ooh, ooh.

- Okay.
- Ooh. We broke it, but, hey,

- there's all... [LAUGHS]
- That's okay. That's great.

I make my move at check-in, and
then, we're just, like, yeah!

- [RHYTHMIC GRUNTING]
- On the spot!

- On the spot. [GRUNTS]
- Yeah. [LAUGHS]

- [LAUGHS]
- That's great. I should do that.

Please. Please.

Oh, you need to take way
more than that. Mm. Here.

- I'm only staying one night.
- There's no such thing

- as being too prepared.
- Okay.

[CARRIE] Listen, I'm
not accepting any clients

at this time, all
right, but if you ask me,

sounds like he needs a psychiatrist,

- and not a lawyer.
- [COUGHING]

Listen, I got to go, Buck.
Lots going on here. Bye-bye.

- Holy moly.
- [COUGHS]

- Will you look at that?
- I burnt the sh*t out of it.

- You certainly did.
- f*ck.

It's like I can't do
basic sh*t, you know?

No, no. It's just that I
think the oven is too hot.

And look, it is. Honey,
it's not a character flaw.

It certainly feels
like a character flaw.

- It's a lasagna.
- Finley.

It's okay. May I approach?

- Please. Please.
- What are you gonna do?

Just let me approach.
What do you say we try it?

- Yeah. Approach.
- Okay.

Come here. It's all right.
You're gonna be okay.

All right? I promise you.

Now, listen, I think you
need to get out of this house.

- I don't.
- Why don't you come with us

to bowling tonight
because we need a sub,

- and you'd be perfect. Come on.
- I don't know

if I'm, like, a bowling lesbian.

Well, there's no way you
could be worse than me.

Trust me. I'm gutter all
the way. Really. I suck.

I do have my no-slip
shoes at the bungalows,

and I can just call Sophie and...

Yeah, no, no, we don't need to do that.

- Oh, come on.
- It's just gonna make it worse.

It's gonna last longer. Just... Okay?

Besides, you know what they
have at bowling alleys? Rentals.

Shoe rentals with the number
of your size on the back,

and you can rent some for tonight.

And don't worry. They have disinfectant.

I mean, I personally wouldn't use one

because I've got a
little OCD skeeviness.

I'm calling Misty to tell
her that you're coming.

[BREATHES DEEPLY] Mm-hmm.

[SLOW, GENTLE MUSIC]

[TOM] I'm telling you right now,

if we go to the same publishing house,

we'd probably get a two-book deal.

And with a two-book deal, that's
great, because there's no way

any of your stories can
fit in just to one. Look,

have you been to therapy? 'Cause
we're gonna go deep this time.

I have stories. I have... I
just don't want to talk about...

We're gonna go so deep
this time, it is ridiculous.

Or how about this?
Tongue-and-cheek self-help book.

- No.
- Or if that doesn't work

with you, you know what
the kids are doing nowadays,

and I kind of like it. Do you cook?

- Tom!
- I know. I'm going too far.

- This is what happens.
- I...

This is the Eiffel
Tower again. I'm sorry!

No, I just... It's
just not about the book.

I... Look, we can circle
back if you really think

there's some interest there,
but I have a different question.

- Oh. Okay, go ahead.
- Okay.

- [SIGHS] Um...
- [CAT MEWS]

Oh, my God. Are you crying?

No, I'm not crying.

- Oh.
- [MEOW]

[CAT MEWING]

- Is that a meow?
- Oh, my God.

Thank you! I've been telling
Sophie there's a cat in here!

- There's definitely...
- And everyone's like, "Oh.

You're going crazy,"
and then a P.A. was like,

"Oh, it's a ghost,"
so we spent half a day,

like, looking for an eco-friendly

spirit removal service.

How'd that work out?

It was like Ghostbusters, but
they showed up in an old Prius.

[SOFT, WHIMSICAL MUSIC]

- It was a scam. A ghost scam.
- [LAUGHING]

- [LAUGHING]
- [LAUGHING] Did you... ?

- [LOUD MEWING]
- Yup.

- I hear... Wait.
- Yup.

[MEWING CONTINUES]

- Uh-huh.
- Is it this way?

[MEWING CONTINUES]

[SIGHS] Jesus Christ. I
can't look at any more donors.

So don't. Come on. Let's go out.

- I'm not in the mood.
- [SIGHS]

I'm just really annoyed.

Look, we can get drunk,

- have sloppy sex.
- [SIGHS]

You'll fall asleep by : .

- [SIGHS]
- Don't make that face.

[SOPHIE] Goodbye, humans.

[MARIBEL] Oh, mirala. Where's she going?

I... am gonna get my hair done.

- Oh. For what?
- Okay.

For nothing. 'Cause
it's time to get it done.

It's not 'cause Dre's
going to Fletcher's...

- Mm.
- Album release party tonight?

- Right?
- No.

Oh, 'cause I thought you were
trying to be single for a while.

I am, okay, and this is not
for them. This is just... for me.

- Okay?
- Mm. Mm-hmm.

I am on my own path. I am taking swings.

- Big swings! Ow.
- [MARIBEL] Maybe too big.

- My titties.
- She's a train wreck.

Yeah.

- Goodbye, b*tches.
- [MICAH] See ya.

Yeah, we're gonna have to
go to this party tonight.

- Mm-hmm. Yeah.
- Yeah?

All right.

- But I'm gonna need to take a nap.
- Yeah, same.

- So happy you came.
- I'm so happy to be here.

Uh, there are a few people I
thought you could meet tonight.

Oh. Right. This is a work thing. Um...

Yeah. There's, uh, Fletcher, of course,

her label rep, and Sophie's
coming tonight, too.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

She produces for The Alice Show,

so, I thought it would
be a good contact for you.

[LAUGHS] Oh, we've made contact.

- [LAUGHING]
- I'm sorry.

Are you at all serious
about your career?

- Yeah, I am.
- Because if you're not...

- No, I am.
- I don't want to make the effort

to introduce you to
people, and then have you...

Look, I got you, for real.

Just let me know when
her people show up,

and I'll put on my best act for you.

I'll even throw in a
handwritten thank-you note.

Thank you.

All good. Thank you.

Come here. Got a
little stuff on your shirt.

Hmm.

Is this part of the
professional service you provide?

Yeah.

- Of course. You need to look good.
- Mm.

Better?

Mm. I mean, there's
only so much I can do.

[SCOFFS, LAUGHS]

I have to go check on the pool bar.

- Oh. When do we skinny dip?
- We don't.

- We're professionals.
- Uh-huh.

how you cradle the ball.
It's your hips, too, okay?

- Okay. Yup.

- And then,

Okay, can you read this for me?

"Hi, Soph. Hope you're

- I'm deleting it.
- What do you mean?

part where I apologized.

It's too soon, Finley.

Oh, there you go.

- Hey!
- Oh. One left.

- Did you see that?
- One left.

You liked it? Well, I deleted it, so...

- Are you serious?
- Yes, Finley. Come on.

- You got to stop.
- Fine. I'm sorry we can't

all just fall in love with the
plumber and get f*cking married.

- Hey, hey, hey.
- What?!

She is my friend. She
is my bowling mate.

Okay, that's it.

- Are you serious?
- Go, bowl.

You have another ball.

[FINLEY] I'm bowling, I'm

- Okay. Better!

- Yeah! Look at that!
- Hey!

- You did it!
- Better!

I'm sorry. You haven't
asked the plumber out yet?

Okay, she has a name.
It's Misty. And no.

- What is that about?
- I don't need to.

I don't want to go through what
you're going through right now.

I like how it is.
It's good, it's enough.

- Here we go.
- Mm.

[LAUGHS QUIETLY]

[HENDRIX] I haven't
done a reading in years.

Like, how do you know what's good?

Like, is this shirt insane?
Because I-I feel insane.

It looks great.

Do you want me to iron that for you?

No, no, no, I can do it. It's fine.

Hey, I want you to know I'm really happy

you're here because if you weren't,

I would just be pacing
back and forth, practicing

- into my toothbrush, so...
- Okay.

If... you get nervous,
you can look at me.

Sometimes it's less scary
to read to one person

than it is to, like, a hundred.

Well, a hundred would be
a historic turnout, so...

- Really?
- Yeah.

It's like they got confused and thought

it was a Marvel premiere. [LAUGHS]

You know, we have a couple of
hours before we have to leave.

I think I want to get there early.

I think we'll have plenty of time.

Hey, I'm sorry. My head is
just like a-a... pinball machine

right now, and I cannot figure out

- where to plug in this iron.
- Okay. Okay.

[QUIETLY] Take a breath.

[EXHALES LOUDLY]

I'm sorry. I'm freaking out.

Okay.

Just close your eyes.

[SLOW, GENTLE MUSIC]

My eyes are closed.

[HENDRIX EXHALES]

Wait. What's happening?

Since it's scary that
you're gonna share something

that... you wrote to the whole world...

- Terrifying.
- So I thought

that I could share...

something of mine... with you.

Did you make this?

Yeah. It's just some little
drawings and stuff I wrote.

- [LAUGHS]
- I don't know.

Actually, I don't know
if it's ready yet, so...

- Okay.
- No, no, no. No take-backs.

Like you said, I'm gonna
be baring my soul later, so,

this is only fair.

this is really beautiful.

- or applying for a grant maybe?

minutes with Teen Vogue,

Billboard only needs five,
then I'm gonna come grab you

ten minutes before you need
to perform, and that's it.

- Micah, this is a weird request.
- Hear me out. Please?

at an album release party for his sperm!

No, I'm just... I'm just saying,
we get to know him, you know?

And who knows? Maybe
we'll really like him.

Okay, and... Oh, look, there's Fletcher.

- Baby, focus.
- Right. Um,

okay, look, I really... I don't
even know if he's cis, okay?

And I... I wouldn't have
said anything, right,

except he's kind of perfect.

Well, what kind of perfect
are we talking about?

Brain surgeon perfect?
Top Chef kind of perfect?

- No. He's... he's more like me.
- Aw. Okay.

Yeah, yeah, he's-he's
really nice, all right,

and he's a little nervous, but...

Okay, I get it. He's your twin flame.

No, that... that-that's something else.

- Oh.
- Look, I just... I feel like,

if we could have a baby with this guy,

then it'd be kind of like
we're having a baby together.

I don't know, I just...

Will you... will you meet him? Please?

- Just meet him. Please.
- [SIGHS]

[SLOW, DRAMATIC MUSIC]

Okay. I will meet him,

but I'm definitely
gonna need one of these,

- for sure.
- Okay, anything.

- Yeah, be right back.
- Okay. Mwah.

[DRE] Uh-uh.

- That sounds incredible.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

I swear, it was like a full-on,

singing, dancing, f*cking musical. Yes.

Oh, my God.

You know, I have a
soft spot for Newsies.

Oh, my God, stop.

Like, I wore a pageboy cap
every day for, like, two years.

- That is so embarrassing for you.
- Ah. Uh-uh. Nah, I made...

- Aw.
- I made that sh*t cool.

- Okay. Right.
- Mm-hmm. Yup.

I'm sure you did.

So, did you learn the truth
of the universe or what?

Hmm.

No. No, nothing... nothing like that.

Um... but I did break up with my
girlfriend afterwards, though.

- Oh, man. I'm sorry.
- Yeah.

No, it's okay. It just...
It needed to happen.

- I should have texted you back.
- Mm. It's all good.

I'm sorry. I thought we were...

No, no, no, no, no. I'm... I am sorry.

- No. It's-it's okay.
- I'm so sorry.

- It's stupid.
- Really. It's-it's cool.

No, I just got caught
up in... Yeah, I...

It's just I, um...
I'm sort of into someone else.

- Oh. It's...
- I-I just, um...

Um, will you just excuse
me for a second, okay?

Excuse me.

Oh. [LAUGHS] Sorry.

met, but we're kind of

in the market for a sperm donor.

I was wondering if
you would ever consider

- doing something like that?
- And just so you know,

"no" is a... is a
totally reasonable answer.

Um... yeah.

Okay, can we... can we slow down?

Will you come sit by me so we can talk?

Please.

I am not embarrassed by you.

I just got caught up in a big moment.

Like, that-that sort of thing
doesn't ever happen for me.

And... I lost my head.
And that wasn't cool.

And I am sorry.

Okay. Thanks for saying that.

Angie, I don't want
you to misunderstand.

I'm not misunderstanding you.

And... I think we have something real.

to be with you now,

I think that's what the

- [CAT MEWING]
- What? That I'm the one?

No, that it was someone that
I pushed away too quickly.

Or someone I just,
you know, blew it with.

- So, obviously, I thought of you.
- Mm. Well, I am flattered.

[ALICE] And then Dana said,

"Well, it's someone
who knows me in a way."

So I thought because we
wrote the book together...

- Hmm.
- But then you went and blew it with

- the whole dad thing, so...
- Well, you know,

I had the body for it,

so I figured might as
well follow through.

Let me ask you something
though. Who did you date...

- after Dana?
- Well, I kissed Lara.

- [TOM] No, not Lara.
- [CAT MEWING]

- Tasha?
- Yes, Tasha.

Tom, we don't like Tasha, remember?

- Yeah! Why?
- Well, I mean...

'cause she broke up with me

- when I was...
- That's what it... Yeah.

You know, just starting
to become successful.

Yep, she couldn't handle the fact

that you were becoming
a famous podcaster.

- I remember that.
- Right,

it was very intimidating.

- It is intimidating.
- Apparently.

Yeah, ghosted me

completely after being
together for years.

She's a jerk.

Thank you. That's the
reaction I would like.

Here, take this.

- [MEWING CONTINUES]
- And these. Thank you.

What? You were in there?

[TOM] run around in that thing.

- Hi.
- Look at that.

I don't know how you
got up all in there,

- but we got you.
- Hi.

Should we get it milk? Or
is that just in the movies?

Well, maybe we should
take it to a shelter

or something like that.

get adopted right away.

- [INDISTINCT CHATTER]

to be on your show, assh*le.

them, okay? Better late than never.
