1
00:00:48,924 --> 00:00:52,386
One of the best things
about being in a great relationship
2
00:00:52,469 --> 00:00:54,972
is feeling comfortable enough
to leave it for an evening.
3
00:00:57,933 --> 00:01:00,394
So what exactly do you gals do
when you get together?
4
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,105
Oh, the usual stuff.
5
00:01:03,564 --> 00:01:05,065
-Braid each other's hair.
-Hmm.
6
00:01:05,148 --> 00:01:06,567
-Crank calls.
-Ah!
7
00:01:06,650 --> 00:01:08,443
Oh, and that Wiccan stuff
that's big now.
8
00:01:08,527 --> 00:01:10,237
You don't talk about the boys?
9
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:15,033
Well, I can't lie.
Sometimes there is talk of the boys.
10
00:01:15,117 --> 00:01:16,201
Men's greatest fear.
11
00:01:16,285 --> 00:01:17,703
I thought it was hair loss.
12
00:01:17,786 --> 00:01:18,870
No problem here.
13
00:01:18,954 --> 00:01:20,706
Yeah, I can tell.
14
00:01:20,789 --> 00:01:23,041
-Feel free to pass that on to the gals.
15
00:01:23,709 --> 00:01:25,544
I'll try to work that
into the conversation.
16
00:01:28,589 --> 00:01:29,715
Good-bye.
17
00:01:29,798 --> 00:01:31,550
-Good-bye.
-Bye.
18
00:01:35,929 --> 00:01:38,599
E.B. White once said
that no one should come to New York
19
00:01:38,682 --> 00:01:40,267
unless they are very lucky.
20
00:01:40,350 --> 00:01:41,435
I was.
21
00:01:41,518 --> 00:01:44,313
I had an amazing boyfriend
who had all his hair,
22
00:01:44,396 --> 00:01:46,064
good friends to talk about him with...
23
00:01:53,822 --> 00:01:56,199
And a married ex-boyfriend
I had slept with a week ago.
24
00:02:01,496 --> 00:02:04,207
May I just say... Wow.
25
00:02:04,291 --> 00:02:06,585
What can I say? I've arrived!
26
00:02:06,668 --> 00:02:10,088
Samantha had invited us over
to celebrate her new Downtown apartment,
27
00:02:10,172 --> 00:02:11,798
three new Uptown clients,
28
00:02:11,882 --> 00:02:13,550
and her general fabulousness.
29
00:02:13,634 --> 00:02:16,470
And who knew all this existed
in the Meatpacking District?
30
00:02:16,553 --> 00:02:20,098
Yes, just yards away from dumpsters
full of decaying cow.
31
00:02:20,182 --> 00:02:21,433
Homemade baby quiche?
32
00:02:22,100 --> 00:02:25,187
-You made these?
-Oh, hell no, I had them delivered.
33
00:02:25,270 --> 00:02:26,772
Along with the dinner, the wine,
34
00:02:26,855 --> 00:02:29,733
and a DVD of An Affair To Remember
that we're watching later, drunk.
35
00:02:29,816 --> 00:02:31,777
You can get DVDs delivered?
36
00:02:31,860 --> 00:02:33,862
I use this hot new
home delivery service.
37
00:02:33,945 --> 00:02:36,782
You call them, anything you want
they bring you within an hour.
38
00:02:36,865 --> 00:02:38,533
-Anything?
-Mmm.
39
00:02:38,867 --> 00:02:40,619
Last night I ordered condoms.
40
00:02:40,702 --> 00:02:42,954
Please tell me
you didn't fuck the delivery guy.
41
00:02:43,038 --> 00:02:44,873
No, John, the hot guy from the gym.
42
00:02:44,956 --> 00:02:48,502
And let me just say that the condoms
came a lot faster than he did.
43
00:02:48,585 --> 00:02:50,087
Now there's an ad slogan.
44
00:02:50,170 --> 00:02:52,798
Oh, ladies, let's just say it.
We have it all.
45
00:02:52,881 --> 00:02:56,802
Great apartments, great jobs,
great friends, great sex.
46
00:02:56,885 --> 00:02:59,471
We can have our baby quiche delivered
and eat it, too.
47
00:02:59,554 --> 00:03:00,764
Exactly, at my age,
48
00:03:00,847 --> 00:03:03,392
my mother was saddled
with three kids and a drunk husband.
49
00:03:03,475 --> 00:03:04,976
You just have three drunk friends.
50
00:03:05,060 --> 00:03:06,978
- By choice!
51
00:03:07,062 --> 00:03:08,814
Well, I think that having it all
52
00:03:08,897 --> 00:03:11,400
really means having someone special
to share it with.
53
00:03:11,483 --> 00:03:13,985
Oh, please, that's so Barney.
54
00:03:14,069 --> 00:03:17,447
Well, I'm sorry. My life wasn't really
complete until I met Trey.
55
00:03:17,906 --> 00:03:20,659
And Trey's mom is so great.
56
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:23,954
Wait till you all meet her at this
engagement party she's throwing for us.
57
00:03:24,037 --> 00:03:25,288
You will love her.
58
00:03:26,081 --> 00:03:29,167
You see us, Manhattan? We have it all!
59
00:03:29,251 --> 00:03:30,419
Fuck you!
60
00:03:30,502 --> 00:03:31,837
You wish!
61
00:03:35,006 --> 00:03:38,009
Carrie, go home,
I can take care of this.
62
00:03:38,093 --> 00:03:39,344
Three hours later,
63
00:03:39,428 --> 00:03:42,514
Deborah Kerr had revealed
her awful secret to Cary Grant,
64
00:03:42,597 --> 00:03:44,725
and I'd still told no one mine.
65
00:03:46,685 --> 00:03:48,186
I slept with Big last week.
66
00:03:48,812 --> 00:03:49,980
You're having an affair?
67
00:03:50,063 --> 00:03:52,607
No, no. No affair.
68
00:03:53,358 --> 00:03:56,278
It was one night,
and it is not happening again.
69
00:03:56,945 --> 00:03:57,863
Okay.
70
00:03:59,030 --> 00:04:00,991
Please don't tell Charlotte or Miranda.
71
00:04:01,491 --> 00:04:02,492
Okay.
72
00:04:03,910 --> 00:04:09,166
Oh, God, I'm awful. I'm awful!
I have this great boyfriend.
73
00:04:09,875 --> 00:04:11,460
I don't know what I was doing.
74
00:04:11,543 --> 00:04:14,296
Nothing men haven't been doing
for centuries.
75
00:04:15,464 --> 00:04:16,298
Was it good?
76
00:04:21,303 --> 00:04:23,472
It was great,
and it's not happening again.
77
00:04:24,264 --> 00:04:25,265
Got it.
78
00:04:25,766 --> 00:04:26,767
Plates.
79
00:04:32,314 --> 00:04:35,066
How could it feel so good
when it's so bad?
80
00:04:35,150 --> 00:04:37,235
Oh, honey, they design it that way.
81
00:04:37,319 --> 00:04:40,197
It's like Big and I, we have this...
82
00:04:40,739 --> 00:04:41,573
thing.
83
00:04:41,656 --> 00:04:43,366
It's all about the pheromones.
84
00:04:43,450 --> 00:04:46,036
We're all just animals
reacting to each other's smell.
85
00:04:46,119 --> 00:04:49,664
But I have this non-married,
wonderful boyfriend, with all his hair,
86
00:04:49,748 --> 00:04:51,750
waiting for me, who smells great.
87
00:04:51,833 --> 00:04:52,918
Don't beat yourself up.
88
00:04:53,001 --> 00:04:56,254
Aidan hasn't said "I love you" yet.
Until he does, you're a free agent.
89
00:04:56,338 --> 00:04:58,381
What is that,
"the rules according to Samantha"?
90
00:04:58,465 --> 00:05:00,926
See? I'm more old-fashioned
than you think.
91
00:05:01,009 --> 00:05:02,761
I don't want to be a free agent.
92
00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:08,975
Don't you want to judge me,
just a little bit?
93
00:05:09,851 --> 00:05:11,144
Not my style.
94
00:05:15,649 --> 00:05:16,650
Yeah.
95
00:05:18,401 --> 00:05:19,402
Hang on.
96
00:05:21,488 --> 00:05:22,948
-Hang on.
97
00:05:26,076 --> 00:05:27,953
-Hey.
-Hi.
98
00:05:29,037 --> 00:05:31,498
Hi. Oh, God, I missed you.
99
00:05:32,165 --> 00:05:33,875
You got to go see the gals more often.
100
00:05:33,959 --> 00:05:34,960
Hmm.
101
00:05:38,046 --> 00:05:39,047
Come on.
102
00:05:41,258 --> 00:05:43,343
Suddenly I felt safe again.
103
00:05:43,426 --> 00:05:45,720
It had all just been a big bad dream.
104
00:05:45,804 --> 00:05:48,932
As long as I was near Aidan,
it would all be okay.
105
00:05:51,268 --> 00:05:52,352
Until the morning.
106
00:05:52,811 --> 00:05:55,313
Why do you have to go
to Pennsylvania today?
107
00:05:55,397 --> 00:05:56,523
See that chair?
108
00:05:57,065 --> 00:05:59,276
It's got owners that miss it very much.
109
00:06:00,569 --> 00:06:02,737
Go tomorrow. Come on, stay.
110
00:06:03,613 --> 00:06:04,865
I'll make you cookies.
111
00:06:04,948 --> 00:06:06,199
You don't cook.
112
00:06:06,616 --> 00:06:09,953
I'll buy you cookies. Come on, stay?
113
00:06:10,036 --> 00:06:11,246
It's just for a couple of days.
114
00:06:11,997 --> 00:06:13,707
You've got to have some stuff
that you want to do.
115
00:06:15,750 --> 00:06:16,585
Mmm.
116
00:06:17,711 --> 00:06:20,422
What I needed to do
was not be alone.
117
00:06:20,505 --> 00:06:21,506
Be good.
118
00:06:39,816 --> 00:06:42,861
Downtown, Samantha woke up
to discover she did have it all.
119
00:06:43,403 --> 00:06:44,613
Including the flu.
120
00:06:45,280 --> 00:06:46,281
Oh!
121
00:06:52,746 --> 00:06:53,747
Shit.
122
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:02,672
Samantha never wanted
a man around in the morning,
123
00:07:02,756 --> 00:07:04,049
until she needed one.
124
00:07:04,132 --> 00:07:05,133
John?
125
00:07:06,092 --> 00:07:07,510
Hey, it's Samantha.
126
00:07:08,178 --> 00:07:09,179
Jones.
127
00:07:10,138 --> 00:07:11,264
From the gym.
128
00:07:11,806 --> 00:07:13,058
Yeah, right.
129
00:07:13,767 --> 00:07:17,854
Listen, I was wondering
if you might be able to drop by
130
00:07:17,938 --> 00:07:19,314
on your way to work this morning?
131
00:07:20,649 --> 00:07:24,110
Honey, I can hardly blow my nose,
let alone blow you.
132
00:07:25,820 --> 00:07:29,574
Yeah, well,
I wouldn't want you to get sick either.
133
00:07:35,789 --> 00:07:36,831
Later that day,
134
00:07:36,915 --> 00:07:39,376
in the bridal registry department
at Bergdorf Goodman,
135
00:07:39,459 --> 00:07:42,253
Charlotte discovered she wanted it all,
and more.
136
00:07:42,337 --> 00:07:43,421
$1,300?
137
00:07:43,505 --> 00:07:44,422
Yes.
138
00:07:45,298 --> 00:07:47,092
And we do very well with it.
139
00:07:47,175 --> 00:07:48,677
It's really beautiful.
140
00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:49,844
Yes.
141
00:07:50,303 --> 00:07:52,180
And it'll look lovely
under the ramen noodles
142
00:07:52,263 --> 00:07:55,016
we'll be forced to eat
due to my outstanding china loans.
143
00:07:56,142 --> 00:07:57,227
Oh, no.
144
00:07:58,186 --> 00:08:00,772
No, not that face.
145
00:08:02,065 --> 00:08:04,234
All right, if it's what you want.
146
00:08:04,734 --> 00:08:06,987
I'm too crazy about you to say no.
147
00:08:10,949 --> 00:08:13,535
I've got to get back to the hospital.
I've got a two o'clock angioplasty.
148
00:08:13,868 --> 00:08:15,745
Did you do your guest list
for the party?
149
00:08:15,829 --> 00:08:16,746
Oh, right, right.
150
00:08:18,373 --> 00:08:19,207
Here.
151
00:08:20,166 --> 00:08:21,167
Almost forgot.
152
00:08:28,091 --> 00:08:29,467
- Sweetie?
-Hmm?
153
00:08:29,551 --> 00:08:30,593
What's this?
154
00:08:32,262 --> 00:08:35,473
Oh, prenuptial agreements,
totally standard.
155
00:08:35,557 --> 00:08:36,975
Everyone in the family has one.
156
00:08:37,058 --> 00:08:38,727
I think you sign on page four
or something.
157
00:08:38,810 --> 00:08:40,895
Feel free to have your lawyer
look it over if you want.
158
00:08:41,855 --> 00:08:42,897
I'll call you later.
159
00:08:50,697 --> 00:08:52,157
Well, this all looks pretty normal.
160
00:08:52,240 --> 00:08:55,076
Charlotte wasted no time
having a lawyer look over the papers.
161
00:08:55,160 --> 00:08:56,911
Normal? We haven't even
gotten married yet,
162
00:08:56,995 --> 00:08:58,580
and already we're talking about divorce.
163
00:08:58,663 --> 00:09:00,707
Sweetie, a lot of people
do prenups these days.
164
00:09:00,790 --> 00:09:03,334
Marriage is supposed to be
about love and happiness.
165
00:09:03,418 --> 00:09:05,170
And the merging
and protection of assets.
166
00:09:05,253 --> 00:09:06,838
That is so unromantic.
167
00:09:06,921 --> 00:09:09,966
And necessary.
50% of marriages end in divorce.
168
00:09:10,050 --> 00:09:12,010
See? There it is again, divorce.
169
00:09:12,093 --> 00:09:14,596
I'm sure you'll live happily ever after.
But I got to tell you,
170
00:09:14,679 --> 00:09:17,098
I wouldn't get married
without one of these to protect myself.
171
00:09:17,182 --> 00:09:19,809
See, I'm safe. I mean,
what's he gonna take from me, shoes?
172
00:09:19,893 --> 00:09:21,352
Wait a minute, maybe I do need one.
173
00:09:21,436 --> 00:09:23,229
-Hmm!
-What?
174
00:09:23,313 --> 00:09:26,649
Okay, this is a little unusual.
He has you on a vesting schedule.
175
00:09:26,733 --> 00:09:28,443
For every five years
that you're married,
176
00:09:28,526 --> 00:09:31,029
you get a percentage of $500,000.
177
00:09:31,488 --> 00:09:34,115
I'm only worth $500,000?
178
00:09:34,199 --> 00:09:35,617
Over 30 years.
179
00:09:35,700 --> 00:09:37,410
Well, maybe that's your wholesale price.
180
00:09:37,494 --> 00:09:39,329
And if you have any boys,
181
00:09:39,412 --> 00:09:41,873
you'll get another 100 grand,
free and clear.
182
00:09:42,457 --> 00:09:43,625
Well, how much for girls?
183
00:09:44,667 --> 00:09:45,668
Um...
184
00:09:46,836 --> 00:09:49,380
-Nada.
-Well, that is just bad business.
185
00:09:49,464 --> 00:09:51,091
I can't sign that.
186
00:09:51,174 --> 00:09:53,676
I can't marry someone
knowing they feel this way.
187
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,261
Listen, this is just
their opening offer.
188
00:09:55,345 --> 00:09:57,555
It's totally standard
to go back in and negotiate.
189
00:09:57,639 --> 00:09:59,974
Negotiate?
I can't even buy stuff on sale.
190
00:10:00,058 --> 00:10:01,017
Talk to Trey.
191
00:10:01,101 --> 00:10:04,187
I'm sure his lawyers will be able
to take care of all of this.
192
00:10:04,646 --> 00:10:05,897
Working over lunch?
193
00:10:05,980 --> 00:10:08,066
They're right, the New York office
is tougher than ours.
194
00:10:08,149 --> 00:10:10,944
George,
this is Carrie and Charlotte.
195
00:10:11,027 --> 00:10:12,237
George works in our Chicago office.
196
00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,155
Hi. I'm here all week
taking depositions.
197
00:10:14,239 --> 00:10:17,742
And restaurant recommendations
from hip and trendy New Yorkers.
198
00:10:17,826 --> 00:10:20,370
-You're hip and trendy?
-George is from Chicago.
199
00:10:21,996 --> 00:10:24,415
-So, it was good, huh?
-It was fantastic.
200
00:10:24,499 --> 00:10:26,084
I hope the place
I take you tomorrow night
201
00:10:26,167 --> 00:10:27,210
lives up to your standards.
202
00:10:27,293 --> 00:10:29,087
Oh, I'm sure it'll be great.
203
00:10:29,629 --> 00:10:30,839
I'll drop by your office later.
204
00:10:30,922 --> 00:10:33,049
-Okay.
-Nice meeting you, ladies.
205
00:10:33,133 --> 00:10:34,134
Bye.
206
00:10:34,884 --> 00:10:38,179
Well, well, well. They sure do
grow them cute in the Midwest.
207
00:10:38,263 --> 00:10:40,598
I know, we have a date.
208
00:10:40,682 --> 00:10:43,852
You'd better find out how much he pays
for boys before you get attached.
209
00:10:45,854 --> 00:10:47,772
Twenty-four hours,
three degrees of fever,
210
00:10:47,856 --> 00:10:50,316
and two pages of her black book later,
211
00:10:50,400 --> 00:10:52,861
Samantha was no closer
to closing her deal.
212
00:10:52,944 --> 00:10:56,489
Why don't you go fuck yourself,
because I won't be doing it again!
213
00:10:56,823 --> 00:10:57,824
Ever!
214
00:10:59,075 --> 00:11:02,537
Samantha was discovering it was
much easier to find a guy to screw her
215
00:11:02,620 --> 00:11:04,289
than one who'd screw in her curtain rod.
216
00:11:05,290 --> 00:11:07,375
She wasn't the only one
who needed a fix.
217
00:11:07,458 --> 00:11:11,087
That day I did everything I could
to keep busy until Aidan came back.
218
00:11:11,171 --> 00:11:14,424
I rearranged my sweaters,
I defrosted my fridge...
219
00:11:22,765 --> 00:11:25,018
I broke into my emergency hidden stash.
220
00:11:25,852 --> 00:11:27,478
And I thought about choices.
221
00:11:28,396 --> 00:11:32,525
Since birth, modern women have been told
we can do and be anything we want.
222
00:11:32,609 --> 00:11:35,653
Be an astronaut,
the head of an Internet company,
223
00:11:35,737 --> 00:11:37,155
a stay-at-home mom.
224
00:11:37,238 --> 00:11:39,741
There aren't any rules anymore,
and the choices are endless,
225
00:11:39,824 --> 00:11:43,161
and apparently they can all be delivered
right to your door.
226
00:11:43,244 --> 00:11:46,623
But is it possible
that we've gotten so spoiled by choices
227
00:11:46,706 --> 00:11:49,042
that we've become unable to make one?
228
00:11:49,125 --> 00:11:51,669
That a part of us knows that
once you choose something,
229
00:11:51,753 --> 00:11:54,964
one man, one great apartment,
one amazing job,
230
00:11:55,048 --> 00:11:56,758
another option goes away?
231
00:11:57,467 --> 00:12:01,554
Are we a generation of women
who can't choose just one from column A?
232
00:12:01,638 --> 00:12:04,474
Did we all have too much to handle,
or was Samantha right?
233
00:12:04,891 --> 00:12:05,975
Can we have it all?
234
00:12:08,186 --> 00:12:11,731
Two hours later, I had filed
every article I'd ever written,
235
00:12:11,814 --> 00:12:14,484
but I still couldn't file away
what had happened with Big.
236
00:12:15,276 --> 00:12:16,653
And so I made a choice.
237
00:12:19,405 --> 00:12:20,448
I called him.
238
00:12:23,826 --> 00:12:25,161
-Yeah.
239
00:12:26,371 --> 00:12:27,497
Hey, it's me, Carrie.
240
00:12:27,580 --> 00:12:28,915
Jesus, Carrie.
241
00:12:29,707 --> 00:12:30,625
How are you?
242
00:12:30,708 --> 00:12:33,419
I'm good. Fine. Um, okay.
243
00:12:33,503 --> 00:12:36,214
Listen, uh, we need to talk about
what happened with us.
244
00:12:36,798 --> 00:12:39,717
-Right now?
-Yes, rationally, and right now.
245
00:12:39,801 --> 00:12:41,177
Apparently you're the boss.
246
00:12:41,261 --> 00:12:42,220
Okay, the thing is,
247
00:12:42,303 --> 00:12:44,597
it was just a physical thing
that happened.
248
00:12:44,681 --> 00:12:48,351
We gave in to our baser instincts,
shit happens, blah, blah, blah.
249
00:12:48,434 --> 00:12:49,727
Are you wearing glasses?
250
00:12:50,311 --> 00:12:52,689
-No.
-You sound like you're wearing glasses.
251
00:12:52,772 --> 00:12:55,233
It can't happen again, you're married.
252
00:12:55,316 --> 00:12:56,734
I'm aware of that.
253
00:12:57,151 --> 00:12:58,528
But come on.
254
00:12:58,611 --> 00:13:00,655
It was pretty fucking amazing,
wasn't it?
255
00:13:00,738 --> 00:13:02,865
That is so not the point.
256
00:13:02,949 --> 00:13:04,575
We're intelligent human beings here.
257
00:13:04,659 --> 00:13:07,412
We have to learn to rise
above the physical stuff.
258
00:13:07,495 --> 00:13:08,913
You can learn to do that?
259
00:13:10,081 --> 00:13:11,541
Apparently we couldn't.
260
00:13:11,624 --> 00:13:13,584
Next time we're going to a hotel.
261
00:13:14,711 --> 00:13:17,130
I can smell the guy on your sheets.
262
00:13:17,755 --> 00:13:19,841
Wood chips and Paco Rabanne.
263
00:13:20,341 --> 00:13:21,718
He doesn't wear cologne.
264
00:13:22,552 --> 00:13:23,720
Maybe he should.
265
00:13:24,304 --> 00:13:25,388
And, by the way?
266
00:13:26,055 --> 00:13:27,432
There'll be no next time.
267
00:13:27,974 --> 00:13:30,101
This is gonna be like
The Bridges of Madison Avenue,
268
00:13:30,184 --> 00:13:33,938
a very brief affair I'll write about
in sappy letters to my grandchildren.
269
00:13:34,022 --> 00:13:36,482
Can I have a beard in the book version?
270
00:13:36,566 --> 00:13:37,483
Huh?
271
00:13:37,859 --> 00:13:39,444
I've always wanted a beard.
272
00:13:40,361 --> 00:13:41,654
Maybe a goatee.
273
00:13:42,447 --> 00:13:44,949
It all felt so easy and so good.
274
00:13:45,450 --> 00:13:47,535
I was like the moth to the old flame.
275
00:13:49,454 --> 00:13:53,541
Meanwhile, that night,
Miranda was enjoying her new flame.
276
00:13:54,876 --> 00:13:58,379
I can't fucking believe I have to catch
an eleven o'clock flight.
277
00:13:59,964 --> 00:14:01,257
But it was fun.
278
00:14:01,341 --> 00:14:03,885
I swear to God,
if I weren't going back to Chicago,
279
00:14:03,968 --> 00:14:06,888
I would definitely be trying
to sleep with you right now.
280
00:14:07,805 --> 00:14:09,849
And I'm drunk enough,
I might have let you.
281
00:14:10,725 --> 00:14:12,435
Oh, damn.
282
00:14:14,562 --> 00:14:16,105
I'll have to wait till next time.
283
00:14:16,856 --> 00:14:18,399
So there will be a next time?
284
00:14:18,483 --> 00:14:20,943
Of course, I come back and forth a lot.
285
00:14:21,527 --> 00:14:24,030
And in the meantime,
there's always the phone.
286
00:14:25,073 --> 00:14:26,407
I have one of those.
287
00:14:27,241 --> 00:14:28,451
I'll call you tomorrow night.
288
00:14:35,041 --> 00:14:36,042
Damn.
289
00:14:38,753 --> 00:14:39,754
The next night,
290
00:14:39,837 --> 00:14:42,215
Miranda was pleasantly surprised
to hear from George.
291
00:14:42,298 --> 00:14:45,551
I knew you were a middle child!
I love it when I'm right.
292
00:14:45,635 --> 00:14:49,514
-Yeah, spoken like a true only child.
293
00:14:49,597 --> 00:14:51,974
They talked for two hours
about everything,
294
00:14:52,058 --> 00:14:54,060
favorite foods, their families.
295
00:14:54,143 --> 00:14:57,021
It was one of the best dates
Miranda had ever been on.
296
00:14:57,980 --> 00:14:59,107
Tell me what you're wearing.
297
00:14:59,190 --> 00:15:00,942
And then
the date got even better.
298
00:15:01,025 --> 00:15:03,069
-Nothing.
-Mmm.
299
00:15:03,945 --> 00:15:05,279
I wish I were there.
300
00:15:05,655 --> 00:15:08,241
Really? What would you do?
301
00:15:08,324 --> 00:15:12,912
I'd start by kissing your neck, slowly.
302
00:15:13,538 --> 00:15:14,622
Mmm-hmm.
303
00:15:14,705 --> 00:15:20,545
And then I'd work my way down
and start licking your nipples.
304
00:15:20,628 --> 00:15:21,838
Where's your hand?
305
00:15:21,921 --> 00:15:23,172
On your dick.
306
00:15:24,257 --> 00:15:25,716
Put the other one on you.
307
00:15:27,301 --> 00:15:31,180
That night, Miranda started
sleeping with George regularly.
308
00:15:31,264 --> 00:15:33,057
She felt like she had it all.
309
00:15:33,141 --> 00:15:34,350
Her own independent life,
310
00:15:34,434 --> 00:15:36,477
and a great boyfriend
she could count on.
311
00:15:36,561 --> 00:15:39,730
He always called
and she always came to the phone.
312
00:15:40,606 --> 00:15:42,400
While Miranda was cumming,
313
00:15:42,483 --> 00:15:43,651
-I was busy preparing...
314
00:15:43,734 --> 00:15:44,735
...for Aidan to come back.
315
00:15:44,819 --> 00:15:47,697
I had slept in Big's and my sex sheets
for two days.
316
00:15:47,780 --> 00:15:50,825
And like any good junkie,
I knew how to hide the evidence.
317
00:15:51,868 --> 00:15:54,078
-Hey, you.
-Come on.
318
00:15:54,162 --> 00:15:55,496
- Hi.
319
00:16:07,258 --> 00:16:08,384
Ah, look at you.
320
00:16:08,468 --> 00:16:11,262
I was sure he could see
the scarlet "A" burned into my chest.
321
00:16:11,888 --> 00:16:14,891
If Big could smell him,
could he smell Big on me?
322
00:16:14,974 --> 00:16:16,517
God, I missed you so much.
323
00:16:18,644 --> 00:16:19,645
Wow.
324
00:16:21,606 --> 00:16:23,774
I should send you to Pennsylvania
more often.
325
00:16:23,858 --> 00:16:25,026
You should.
326
00:16:25,568 --> 00:16:27,528
I realized something while I was gone.
327
00:16:27,945 --> 00:16:29,363
Oh, you did, did you?
328
00:16:30,031 --> 00:16:31,032
Yeah.
329
00:16:31,491 --> 00:16:32,742
I love you, Carrie.
330
00:16:36,954 --> 00:16:37,788
That too much?
331
00:16:39,332 --> 00:16:40,875
Around Trenton,
I thought I shouldn't say it--
332
00:16:40,958 --> 00:16:42,293
No, no.
333
00:16:46,339 --> 00:16:47,590
I love you, too.
334
00:16:49,884 --> 00:16:50,718
Mmm.
335
00:16:55,264 --> 00:16:59,227
Not only was my secret safe,
but apparently I had become lovable.
336
00:16:59,810 --> 00:17:02,855
I felt awful, and so good.
337
00:17:02,939 --> 00:17:04,982
-Wait, no sheets.
-Fuck the sheets.
338
00:17:05,233 --> 00:17:08,778
So you're bent over
and I'm playing with you.
339
00:17:08,861 --> 00:17:10,613
And your dick is in my mouth.
340
00:17:10,696 --> 00:17:13,282
Oh, Jesus. Oh, I think I'm going to cum.
341
00:17:13,366 --> 00:17:16,077
The next night, Miranda was
going to third with George when...
342
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,454
-...her second line beeped in.
343
00:17:18,538 --> 00:17:19,872
Damn it, hold on.
344
00:17:21,791 --> 00:17:22,625
Hello!
345
00:17:22,708 --> 00:17:24,335
Trey says his mom won't negotiate.
346
00:17:24,418 --> 00:17:25,419
Hold on.
347
00:17:25,503 --> 00:17:26,837
You sound weird, are you okay?
348
00:17:26,921 --> 00:17:27,755
I'll be right back.
349
00:17:29,423 --> 00:17:31,968
Okay, your dick is in my mouth.
350
00:17:32,051 --> 00:17:33,177
Keep it there.
351
00:17:33,261 --> 00:17:34,804
-So now we know.
352
00:17:34,887 --> 00:17:36,264
The mom's the one holding the cards.
353
00:17:36,347 --> 00:17:37,848
She's the one
you're gonna have to go up against.
354
00:17:37,932 --> 00:17:38,933
How do I do that?
355
00:17:39,016 --> 00:17:41,978
Charlotte, this isn't a good time.
I'll call you tomorrow.
356
00:17:42,061 --> 00:17:43,229
-But--
357
00:17:44,438 --> 00:17:45,439
Sorry.
358
00:17:45,773 --> 00:17:47,108
So am I.
359
00:17:47,191 --> 00:17:49,402
You got me so hot I just came.
360
00:17:50,278 --> 00:17:51,571
You did, huh?
361
00:17:52,405 --> 00:17:55,408
So, now we have to take care of you.
362
00:17:59,245 --> 00:18:01,914
The next night,
I went to take care of Samantha.
363
00:18:01,998 --> 00:18:03,791
More cough syrup.
364
00:18:05,209 --> 00:18:09,088
Which for Samantha meant making
her mom's cure-all childhood remedy,
365
00:18:09,171 --> 00:18:11,841
cough syrup and Fanta orange soda
over ice.
366
00:18:17,805 --> 00:18:18,806
Mmm.
367
00:18:19,473 --> 00:18:22,476
No offense, but this thing's
about to make me sicker than you.
368
00:18:22,560 --> 00:18:24,228
Give me my drink!
369
00:18:24,312 --> 00:18:25,896
Okay, okay.
370
00:18:27,481 --> 00:18:30,276
A frosted martini glass
would make that a lot more appetizing.
371
00:18:33,821 --> 00:18:35,906
Why don't you ask the super
to fix your window?
372
00:18:36,407 --> 00:18:40,411
Because I don't have one.
I own this fucking place, remember?
373
00:18:44,498 --> 00:18:46,542
I should have gotten married.
374
00:18:46,626 --> 00:18:49,378
Then at least
I'd have a curtain that closes.
375
00:18:50,671 --> 00:18:51,881
Oh, Carrie.
376
00:18:52,423 --> 00:18:54,675
It doesn't matter how much you have.
377
00:18:55,301 --> 00:18:58,095
If you don't have a guy
who cares about you,
378
00:18:58,804 --> 00:19:00,348
it all means shit.
379
00:19:00,431 --> 00:19:04,101
Oh, sweetie, calm down.
380
00:19:04,185 --> 00:19:05,603
-Oh!
381
00:19:05,686 --> 00:19:08,147
Three days of sleep deprivation
had turned Samantha
382
00:19:08,230 --> 00:19:10,441
into a whole new woman. Charlotte.
383
00:19:10,524 --> 00:19:11,442
Here, here.
384
00:19:11,525 --> 00:19:15,112
For someone who had it all,
she had never felt more alone.
385
00:19:16,822 --> 00:19:18,783
-Good girl. Okay.
386
00:19:20,034 --> 00:19:21,661
I'm gonna tell you something.
387
00:19:22,620 --> 00:19:24,664
There's two types of guys out there.
388
00:19:25,289 --> 00:19:28,459
The ones that hold your hand,
and the ones that fuck you.
389
00:19:29,043 --> 00:19:31,545
And I'd slept with both of them
in the last 48 hours.
390
00:19:31,629 --> 00:19:34,632
And the guys that fuck you
aren't worth a damn.
391
00:19:36,175 --> 00:19:38,469
We're all alone, Carrie.
392
00:19:38,886 --> 00:19:41,972
-Oh, we are not all alone.
393
00:19:42,056 --> 00:19:43,432
We have each other.
394
00:19:44,350 --> 00:19:46,018
Oh, hey.
395
00:19:48,979 --> 00:19:51,732
-Come on. Bed.
-Yeah.
396
00:19:51,816 --> 00:19:53,651
Three days of bed rest later,
397
00:19:53,734 --> 00:19:57,321
three healthy girls
attended a very Uptown party.
398
00:19:57,405 --> 00:20:01,325
Jesus, it looks like
Martha Stewart exploded in here.
399
00:20:01,409 --> 00:20:02,910
Hey, look, headbands are back.
400
00:20:02,993 --> 00:20:04,995
I'm starving, where's the food?
401
00:20:05,705 --> 00:20:08,791
It's amazing what four days
of a cough syrup and Fanta diet
402
00:20:08,874 --> 00:20:10,251
will do for the appetite.
403
00:20:10,334 --> 00:20:13,087
They're WASPs,
there's never food, only booze.
404
00:20:13,170 --> 00:20:15,423
Fine. One martini, six olives.
405
00:20:16,716 --> 00:20:18,843
I can't believe
Charlotte wants to be in this world.
406
00:20:18,926 --> 00:20:21,846
Look at these people.
They're like Ken and Barbie cutouts.
407
00:20:21,929 --> 00:20:23,597
-You guys made it!
- Hey!
408
00:20:23,681 --> 00:20:24,765
Hi!
409
00:20:24,849 --> 00:20:26,308
Ladies,
I see you've found the bar.
410
00:20:26,392 --> 00:20:27,727
We're good that way.
411
00:20:27,810 --> 00:20:31,522
Trey, you have to keep people
out of the maid's room.
412
00:20:31,605 --> 00:20:35,901
There are photos of me rowing
college crew in there. It's mortifying.
413
00:20:35,985 --> 00:20:39,363
Mum, these are Charlotte's friends.
Ladies, this is my mum, Bunny.
414
00:20:39,447 --> 00:20:40,322
-Hi.
-Hello.
415
00:20:40,406 --> 00:20:43,743
Pleasure to have you.
Oh, there's Reverend Williams.
416
00:20:43,826 --> 00:20:47,580
Maybe we should go say hello
before he gets into the Scotch.
417
00:20:48,622 --> 00:20:50,499
I'd say it was about 20 years
too late for that.
418
00:20:55,087 --> 00:20:56,714
I haven't signed the prenup.
419
00:20:56,797 --> 00:20:58,048
What are you gonna do?
420
00:20:58,132 --> 00:20:59,508
I don't know, I'm so confused.
421
00:21:00,217 --> 00:21:03,971
I really love him, I do.
But I feel like no one cares about me.
422
00:21:04,054 --> 00:21:06,682
I thought that maybe
if we could negotiate it'd be okay.
423
00:21:06,766 --> 00:21:10,060
But now, this all feels so wrong.
424
00:21:10,144 --> 00:21:11,312
What does Trey say?
425
00:21:11,812 --> 00:21:14,398
Nothing. He leaves this stuff
up to his mother.
426
00:21:14,482 --> 00:21:16,692
A woman named Bunny?
Honey, you could take her.
427
00:21:17,401 --> 00:21:19,069
Help me. What should I do?
428
00:21:19,153 --> 00:21:21,280
Oh, sweetie,
we can't tell you what to do.
429
00:21:21,363 --> 00:21:23,574
I wasn't one to talk
on the subject of marriage,
430
00:21:23,657 --> 00:21:26,410
considering I might be
in the process of breaking one up.
431
00:21:26,827 --> 00:21:28,996
You have to do
whatever feels right to you.
432
00:21:29,538 --> 00:21:32,416
I guess it just depends
how much you want to marry Trey.
433
00:21:43,928 --> 00:21:46,263
Bunny, do you have a minute?
434
00:21:46,347 --> 00:21:48,057
Well, Charlotte, of course.
435
00:21:48,516 --> 00:21:52,061
Charlotte realized if she ever
wanted to close the deal with Trey,
436
00:21:52,144 --> 00:21:54,522
she'd have to close the deal
with Bunny first.
437
00:21:54,605 --> 00:21:56,899
I haven't signed
the prenuptial agreement.
438
00:21:56,982 --> 00:21:58,234
Well, you've been busy.
439
00:21:59,068 --> 00:22:00,945
I have, um...
440
00:22:02,321 --> 00:22:04,824
a little problem
with how much I'm worth.
441
00:22:06,116 --> 00:22:07,117
I see.
442
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,454
Well, Charlotte,
that is the standard amount.
443
00:22:10,538 --> 00:22:13,791
It's how it's always been done
in the MacDougal family.
444
00:22:15,334 --> 00:22:16,377
Right.
445
00:22:16,460 --> 00:22:18,379
Not only would
she have to negotiate,
446
00:22:18,462 --> 00:22:20,464
she'd have to play hardball.
447
00:22:21,632 --> 00:22:23,801
Well, you know,
448
00:22:25,261 --> 00:22:28,222
we haven't finalized
all of the wedding arrangements.
449
00:22:28,305 --> 00:22:31,767
I know Trey would be disappointed
if I backed out,
450
00:22:31,851 --> 00:22:33,561
and The Times announcement would run,
451
00:22:33,644 --> 00:22:35,312
and I guess
there would be some questions--
452
00:22:35,396 --> 00:22:36,814
What do you want?
453
00:22:37,982 --> 00:22:39,191
I'm worth a million.
454
00:22:44,071 --> 00:22:44,989
I did it!
455
00:22:45,072 --> 00:22:47,658
I negotiated with Bunny
and I signed the prenup.
456
00:22:47,741 --> 00:22:49,827
-Oh!
-Oh, that's great, sweetie.
457
00:22:49,910 --> 00:22:51,620
I'm getting married.
458
00:22:51,704 --> 00:22:53,956
Congratulations!
459
00:22:54,039 --> 00:22:55,124
I love him, I really do.
460
00:22:55,207 --> 00:22:58,335
Ladies, may I sweep my bride away?
461
00:22:59,253 --> 00:23:00,671
She's all yours.
462
00:23:02,381 --> 00:23:05,259
It was then that each of us
realized that we didn't have it all.
463
00:23:05,885 --> 00:23:07,845
Because we no longer had Charlotte.
464
00:23:09,889 --> 00:23:11,599
And then there were three.
465
00:23:11,682 --> 00:23:14,268
I can't believe she's marrying that guy.
466
00:23:14,351 --> 00:23:16,770
And for about a tenth
of what she's worth.
467
00:23:16,854 --> 00:23:19,565
Hey, I thought you were
Ms. Pro-marriage these days.
468
00:23:19,648 --> 00:23:23,777
Honey, I was delirious. I also saw
plaid spots all over my bathtub.
469
00:23:24,445 --> 00:23:25,905
I can't believe
I'm saying this,
470
00:23:25,988 --> 00:23:28,282
but it feels weird without her here.
471
00:23:28,365 --> 00:23:30,784
That's such a Charlotte thing
to say.
472
00:23:31,076 --> 00:23:33,704
After a week full of Aidan
and no cigarettes,
473
00:23:33,787 --> 00:23:36,373
I felt like I had finally
kicked my addiction.
474
00:23:36,457 --> 00:23:37,499
Emu.
475
00:23:37,583 --> 00:23:38,751
What?
476
00:23:39,460 --> 00:23:41,420
Thirty-two across. Rare bird. Emu.
477
00:23:42,463 --> 00:23:43,797
I was getting there.
478
00:23:43,881 --> 00:23:45,925
Not with the wrong word in 15 down,
you weren't.
479
00:23:53,057 --> 00:23:54,850
And then my addiction found me.
480
00:23:54,934 --> 00:23:56,477
-Hello.
- I need to see you.
481
00:23:56,560 --> 00:23:57,853
Miranda, I'll call you back.
482
00:23:57,937 --> 00:24:00,356
I'm downstairs.
If you don't come down, I'm coming up.
483
00:24:00,439 --> 00:24:01,523
Right, I'll call you later.
484
00:24:07,529 --> 00:24:10,282
I told Aidan
I was taking Pete for a walk.
485
00:24:10,366 --> 00:24:12,618
And he believed me,
which only made it worse.
486
00:24:12,701 --> 00:24:16,497
-Don't ever call me at home again. Walk.
487
00:24:17,331 --> 00:24:20,334
You know, you can't just decide
you want to see me and boom, I'm there!
488
00:24:20,417 --> 00:24:22,419
-Is this his dog?
-Yes.
489
00:24:22,503 --> 00:24:24,088
Do you know what your problem is?
You want it all.
490
00:24:24,171 --> 00:24:27,049
You want the girl you screw, me,
and the girl you go home to, her.
491
00:24:27,132 --> 00:24:28,884
That's bullshit, I just want you.
492
00:24:31,220 --> 00:24:34,264
I can't do this anymore,
sleep with two people at the same time.
493
00:24:37,601 --> 00:24:38,769
I'm going to tell her tonight.
494
00:24:38,852 --> 00:24:40,437
-What?
-What?
495
00:24:40,521 --> 00:24:42,648
No! No, no! You...
496
00:24:42,731 --> 00:24:45,234
Married men don't just leave the...
497
00:24:45,317 --> 00:24:49,405
I have a man who loves me,
and you have a wife who loves you.
498
00:24:49,488 --> 00:24:52,449
Don't talk about him and her
like it's you and me.
499
00:24:52,533 --> 00:24:53,951
You have no right to do this.
500
00:24:54,034 --> 00:24:57,246
You can't just come back into my life
and fuck it all up!
501
00:24:57,329 --> 00:24:59,999
Well, I think there were two people
doing the fucking here, Carrie.
502
00:25:00,082 --> 00:25:01,792
-Shit.
503
00:25:02,334 --> 00:25:04,086
Pete? Oh, shit!
504
00:25:04,795 --> 00:25:05,921
-Oh, God!
-Where are you going?
505
00:25:06,005 --> 00:25:07,381
-Pete!
-Wait, Carrie!
506
00:25:07,464 --> 00:25:10,175
Pete! Pete!
507
00:25:10,592 --> 00:25:11,427
Oh, shit!
508
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:12,594
Carrie!
509
00:25:12,678 --> 00:25:13,637
Pete!
510
00:25:14,847 --> 00:25:16,515
Excuse me, excuse me.
511
00:25:17,057 --> 00:25:17,975
Pete!
512
00:25:22,730 --> 00:25:23,564
Pete!
513
00:25:24,773 --> 00:25:25,983
-Pete.
514
00:25:26,066 --> 00:25:27,067
Watch out!
515
00:25:27,151 --> 00:25:29,570
- Pete!
516
00:25:29,653 --> 00:25:30,821
- Whoa!
- Hey!
517
00:25:39,621 --> 00:25:40,622
Shit!
518
00:25:42,791 --> 00:25:46,587
No. Go home.
Don't tell anyone, don't do anything.
519
00:25:46,670 --> 00:25:47,963
No, I want to help.
520
00:25:48,047 --> 00:25:50,382
It isn't helping. Go home.
521
00:25:55,137 --> 00:25:58,307
Later, back at Miranda's home,
things were heating up as well.
522
00:25:58,390 --> 00:26:00,350
Then I unbutton the last button
523
00:26:00,434 --> 00:26:03,896
and slip my hand in
and touch your breast.
524
00:26:04,563 --> 00:26:07,107
Mmm, your nipple's so hard...
525
00:26:08,275 --> 00:26:10,235
Uh, I'll be right back.
526
00:26:23,832 --> 00:26:26,168
And I'm thrusting, I'm thrusting,
527
00:26:26,251 --> 00:26:27,961
I'm deep inside of you.
528
00:26:28,045 --> 00:26:29,713
You were touching my breast.
529
00:26:30,297 --> 00:26:34,426
Yeah, yeah, I'm touching your breast
and I'm thrusting hard into you.
530
00:26:34,510 --> 00:26:36,428
No, we hadn't gotten to that yet.
531
00:26:37,930 --> 00:26:38,931
Oh.
532
00:26:42,309 --> 00:26:44,770
Are you having phone sex
with other people?
533
00:26:47,314 --> 00:26:49,441
Well, Miranda,
534
00:26:49,817 --> 00:26:52,361
I don't think we ever said
this was an exclusive thing.
535
00:26:52,778 --> 00:26:53,946
Oh, my God!
536
00:26:54,029 --> 00:26:56,949
And with that,
Miranda stopped being hung up on George.
537
00:26:57,032 --> 00:26:58,450
And so she hung up on him.
538
00:27:00,536 --> 00:27:03,205
Three hours later,
I still hadn't found Pete.
539
00:27:03,288 --> 00:27:05,332
And I felt as lost as he was.
540
00:27:05,749 --> 00:27:07,209
I had a man who loved me
541
00:27:07,292 --> 00:27:09,419
and a man who wanted
to leave his wife for me.
542
00:27:09,878 --> 00:27:12,381
I should have been on top of the world.
But I wasn't.
543
00:27:12,923 --> 00:27:15,801
I didn't feel like I had it all.
I felt like nothing.
544
00:27:17,052 --> 00:27:20,097
I had lost Pete,
and I would probably lose Aidan,
545
00:27:20,180 --> 00:27:21,765
so I decided to come clean.
546
00:27:23,767 --> 00:27:24,768
Hey.
547
00:27:26,145 --> 00:27:27,521
Jesus, I was worried about you.
548
00:27:27,980 --> 00:27:28,981
Look...
549
00:27:30,357 --> 00:27:31,984
Oh, babe.
550
00:27:34,570 --> 00:27:35,779
Oh, my God!
551
00:27:36,530 --> 00:27:37,614
Pete's here?
552
00:27:38,073 --> 00:27:40,075
Oh, my God, I lost him. I...
553
00:27:40,784 --> 00:27:43,495
I lost him and I was...
I looked for him and I...
554
00:27:44,079 --> 00:27:45,789
Oh, Pete, come here.
555
00:27:46,456 --> 00:27:48,125
Oh, come here, Pete.
556
00:27:48,709 --> 00:27:51,086
-Oh, God.
- Hey.
557
00:27:51,170 --> 00:27:53,005
I'm an awful girlfriend.
558
00:27:53,088 --> 00:27:55,174
-Hey, take it easy.
-I'm awful.
559
00:27:55,257 --> 00:27:57,134
He's a dog, he runs away.
560
00:27:57,968 --> 00:27:59,928
He found his way back. Come here.
561
00:28:00,721 --> 00:28:01,972
And so had I.
562
00:28:06,143 --> 00:28:07,936
Carrie, I need to ask you something.
563
00:28:10,564 --> 00:28:11,565
Okay.
564
00:28:12,149 --> 00:28:14,151
I don't want to be paranoid here. Okay?
565
00:28:14,234 --> 00:28:16,320
But you took Pete for a walk
566
00:28:16,403 --> 00:28:19,406
and we both know
you're not big on the dog walking.
567
00:28:21,658 --> 00:28:22,951
And I can smell something.
568
00:28:35,881 --> 00:28:36,840
Are you cheating?
569
00:28:44,306 --> 00:28:45,766
I can smell the smoke on you.
570
00:28:50,062 --> 00:28:51,063
Oh.
571
00:28:51,772 --> 00:28:53,190
You're smoking again, aren't you?
572
00:28:56,777 --> 00:28:57,778
Yeah.
573
00:28:59,738 --> 00:29:00,739
Yeah, I am.
574
00:29:01,281 --> 00:29:02,491
It was the truth.
575
00:29:04,910 --> 00:29:05,911
Are you going to quit?
576
00:29:06,703 --> 00:29:08,038
I really want to.
577
00:29:08,872 --> 00:29:10,082
And that was, too.
578
00:29:12,584 --> 00:29:13,585
Come here.
