1
00:00:17,059 --> 00:00:18,852
[Mary Anne] I'm very aware
that I'm the least cool member
2
00:00:18,936 --> 00:00:20,729
of The Baby-Sitters Club.
3
00:00:21,188 --> 00:00:22,731
Claudia is a style icon.
4
00:00:22,814 --> 00:00:25,150
Kristy totally rocks the normcore look,
5
00:00:25,609 --> 00:00:28,320
and Stacey is so chic,
she's practically French.
6
00:00:28,403 --> 00:00:29,238
Meanwhile...
7
00:00:29,321 --> 00:00:30,531
Make it fashion!
8
00:00:30,906 --> 00:00:31,823
Yep.
9
00:00:31,907 --> 00:00:35,452
Every day, I leave the house looking like
either the world's oldest toddler
10
00:00:35,536 --> 00:00:37,496
or maybe its youngest senior citizen.
11
00:00:37,579 --> 00:00:38,997
I guess I act like one, too,
12
00:00:39,915 --> 00:00:41,500
because other than the BSC,
13
00:00:41,583 --> 00:00:45,212
the majority of my social life involves
an 83-year-old woman
14
00:00:45,295 --> 00:00:48,674
who's been helping me master
a twisted cable rib stitch.
15
00:00:48,757 --> 00:00:50,342
Look what I got us!
16
00:00:50,926 --> 00:00:52,469
Funky yarn! [laughs]
17
00:00:52,886 --> 00:00:54,680
Oh, how we rage.
18
00:00:56,515 --> 00:01:01,979
Wait, my mom chased an entire
water polo team out of a public pool?
19
00:01:02,062 --> 00:01:04,731
Never again will a bunch
of high school boys
20
00:01:04,815 --> 00:01:08,485
be so afraid of a pregnant woman
and an old lady. [laughs]
21
00:01:08,569 --> 00:01:09,861
She wasn't afraid?
22
00:01:09,945 --> 00:01:12,406
Your mother always spoke her mind,
23
00:01:12,489 --> 00:01:16,535
especially on behalf of those
who can't stand up for themselves.
24
00:01:17,244 --> 00:01:19,580
It's what made her
such a brilliant lawyer.
25
00:01:20,247 --> 00:01:22,332
It doesn't sound like
I'm anything like her.
26
00:01:22,916 --> 00:01:24,001
Why would you say that?
27
00:01:24,084 --> 00:01:27,671
Talking to people I don't know
makes my stomach fall out of my nose.
28
00:01:27,754 --> 00:01:30,007
So does talking to people
I do know sometimes.
29
00:01:30,799 --> 00:01:32,342
I think I'm just bad at talking.
30
00:01:32,426 --> 00:01:35,429
Your mother didn't become
who she was overnight.
31
00:01:35,929 --> 00:01:38,473
Mary Anne,
everyone's waiting for you upstairs.
32
00:01:38,682 --> 00:01:40,642
Oh. Sorry.
33
00:01:41,893 --> 00:01:43,145
-Bye, Mimi.
-Bye.
34
00:01:50,027 --> 00:01:52,029
[phone rings]
35
00:01:52,154 --> 00:01:53,488
Hello, Baby-Sitters Club.
36
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:55,574
[Mary Anne] I have a recurring bad dream.
37
00:01:55,657 --> 00:01:56,700
I'm in Claudia's room,
38
00:01:56,783 --> 00:01:59,494
and there's a ringing phone
with no caller ID, and--
39
00:01:59,578 --> 00:02:01,121
She wants to talk to you, Mary Anne.
40
00:02:01,204 --> 00:02:02,497
[Mary Anne] This is not a dream.
41
00:02:02,789 --> 00:02:04,249
This is really happening.
42
00:02:05,667 --> 00:02:06,585
Hello.
43
00:02:06,668 --> 00:02:09,379
Mary Anne Spier,
this is Francine Delvecchio.
44
00:02:09,463 --> 00:02:12,841
I work with your dad, and he says
you are an excellent babysitter.
45
00:02:12,924 --> 00:02:15,093
Would you be free to watch my Bailey
for a couple of hours?
46
00:02:16,511 --> 00:02:17,846
I don't--
47
00:02:17,929 --> 00:02:18,889
This isn't Mary Anne Spier?
48
00:02:18,972 --> 00:02:21,642
No, I mean, yes. I'm free.
49
00:02:21,725 --> 00:02:24,436
Oh, that's great.Thanks for helping.
50
00:02:24,519 --> 00:02:25,354
I think.
51
00:02:25,437 --> 00:02:26,730
[mouths] What are you doing?
52
00:02:26,813 --> 00:02:30,692
But the thing is,
I belong to a club of babysitters.
53
00:02:31,318 --> 00:02:33,987
So I'd have to check if any of them--
54
00:02:34,071 --> 00:02:36,198
No, I'm really only interested in you
at the moment,
55
00:02:36,281 --> 00:02:37,324
since I know your dad.
56
00:02:37,407 --> 00:02:38,784
[Mary Anne]
The other thing I'm afraid of...
57
00:02:39,076 --> 00:02:40,202
Saying no.
58
00:02:40,285 --> 00:02:41,495
What's your address?
59
00:02:42,871 --> 00:02:43,872
Wow.
60
00:02:47,042 --> 00:02:49,628
-Thank you.
-[hangs up phone]
61
00:02:52,047 --> 00:02:53,507
I shouldn't have done that.
62
00:02:53,590 --> 00:02:56,176
Clients aren't supposed
to pick their sitters, Mary Anne.
63
00:02:56,259 --> 00:02:58,553
That goes against the club's
entire mission statement.
64
00:02:59,054 --> 00:02:59,888
I'm sorry.
65
00:02:59,971 --> 00:03:01,473
You don't have to apologize.
66
00:03:01,556 --> 00:03:03,642
Just try to be more assertive.
67
00:03:03,975 --> 00:03:05,310
Stand up for yourself.
68
00:03:05,686 --> 00:03:06,520
Sorry.
69
00:03:06,603 --> 00:03:08,563
You don't have to keep saying
you're sorry.
70
00:03:08,647 --> 00:03:10,357
-Sorry.
-[all] Mary Anne!
71
00:03:11,149 --> 00:03:13,610
You have to learn how to advocate better
for yourself.
72
00:03:13,694 --> 00:03:15,070
Don't be such a pushover.
73
00:03:15,153 --> 00:03:17,280
Do you just want people
to ignore you your whole life?
74
00:03:17,698 --> 00:03:19,700
[Mary Anne] Uh-oh. Here it comes.
75
00:03:19,783 --> 00:03:21,493
[sniffles, crying]
76
00:03:22,703 --> 00:03:24,121
Just leave me alone!
77
00:03:29,251 --> 00:03:32,796
I wish my dad was the kind of dad
that I could talk to when I'm upset,
78
00:03:32,879 --> 00:03:35,424
but he's more of the kind of dad
who has to write things like,
79
00:03:35,507 --> 00:03:37,968
"Leisure time at four p.m."
on the calendar.
80
00:03:40,721 --> 00:03:43,014
This is a Jerusalem artichoke.
81
00:03:43,098 --> 00:03:46,643
Now, it may seem like an exotic ingredient
for a Thanksgiving side dish,
82
00:03:46,727 --> 00:03:49,646
but they were, in fact,
named by the Puritans
83
00:03:49,730 --> 00:03:53,108
in reference to the utopia they hoped
to create in the New World...
84
00:03:54,443 --> 00:03:55,902
[huffs] Sorry...
85
00:03:56,278 --> 00:03:58,822
Uh, just wanted to do a test run
before the big night.
86
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,288
Oh, well, is there something
you'd like to discuss with...
87
00:04:08,874 --> 00:04:09,708
me?
88
00:04:09,791 --> 00:04:13,211
[Mary Anne] I was playing a dangerous
game, but I couldn't help myself.
89
00:04:13,420 --> 00:04:16,506
[sighs] The whole club thinks
I'm a pathetic crybaby.
90
00:04:16,798 --> 00:04:19,551
[inhales] And I'm really starting
to think they're right
91
00:04:19,634 --> 00:04:21,762
because just look at me.
92
00:04:21,845 --> 00:04:24,639
Of course they think I'm a baby.
I am a baby.
93
00:04:25,056 --> 00:04:27,893
My stupid baby hair
and my stupid baby overalls.
94
00:04:28,185 --> 00:04:30,061
Not to mention my room.
95
00:04:30,145 --> 00:04:32,230
And Kristy called me unprofessional.
96
00:04:32,314 --> 00:04:34,483
Claudia said I was a pushover,
and Stacey...
97
00:04:35,317 --> 00:04:38,403
She treats me like the kid that
her parents told her to hang out with.
98
00:04:38,487 --> 00:04:39,863
They think I'm pathetic.
99
00:04:42,324 --> 00:04:44,284
[sighs] Which I am...
100
00:04:46,328 --> 00:04:49,414
because I can't say anything
without starting to cry.
101
00:04:53,418 --> 00:04:55,754
So the other girls have been
calling you names,
102
00:04:55,837 --> 00:04:57,255
-bullying you?
-No, Dad.
103
00:04:57,339 --> 00:04:59,174
I've told Liz Thomas once,
and I'll tell her again--
104
00:04:59,257 --> 00:05:00,091
Stop!
105
00:05:00,175 --> 00:05:02,260
Pretend I never said anything.
106
00:05:04,513 --> 00:05:07,474
I read somewhere that
women want to express emotions,
107
00:05:07,557 --> 00:05:09,559
and men want to find solutions for them.
108
00:05:09,935 --> 00:05:11,603
As I found out the next day,
109
00:05:11,686 --> 00:05:14,481
Dad's solution made everything worse.
110
00:05:15,941 --> 00:05:16,858
Hey, guys.
111
00:05:18,318 --> 00:05:21,780
Sorry, did you want to sit
with bullies like us?
112
00:05:21,863 --> 00:05:24,282
[Mary Anne] Oh, Dad, what have you done?
113
00:05:24,366 --> 00:05:26,576
I can't believe that
you went home last night
114
00:05:26,660 --> 00:05:30,205
and tattled to your dad
that we were being mean to you.
115
00:05:30,288 --> 00:05:31,206
I didn't.
116
00:05:31,832 --> 00:05:34,000
-Not on purpose.
-Tell that to our parents.
117
00:05:34,125 --> 00:05:37,045
Your dad called them, and now,
thanks to you, we're all grounded.
118
00:05:37,462 --> 00:05:40,048
I'm so, so sorry.
119
00:05:40,131 --> 00:05:41,675
We need some space.
120
00:05:47,931 --> 00:05:49,724
[laughing]
121
00:05:49,808 --> 00:05:51,643
-That is so funny.
-[Mary Anne] The Shillaber twins.
122
00:05:52,227 --> 00:05:55,272
If she's sitting with them,
she must be really mad.
123
00:06:12,122 --> 00:06:14,416
Hi. Can I join you?
124
00:06:15,375 --> 00:06:16,209
Sure.
125
00:06:19,880 --> 00:06:20,755
What's your name?
126
00:06:21,631 --> 00:06:22,465
Mary Anne.
127
00:06:22,841 --> 00:06:24,342
Nice to meet you, Mary Anne.
128
00:06:24,426 --> 00:06:26,511
I'm Dawn. I just moved here from LA.
129
00:06:27,220 --> 00:06:30,015
I know, I wish
the stereotypes weren't true, but...
130
00:06:30,515 --> 00:06:33,184
we do eat differently out there. [laughs]
131
00:06:33,852 --> 00:06:34,936
You don't say much, do you?
132
00:06:37,314 --> 00:06:39,482
What brings you to Stoneybrook?
133
00:06:40,191 --> 00:06:41,067
Good question.
134
00:06:41,443 --> 00:06:43,278
Uh, my parents finally got divorced.
135
00:06:44,237 --> 00:06:45,238
It's no big deal.
136
00:06:45,906 --> 00:06:49,659
My dad is gay, which they both always knew
on some level,
137
00:06:49,743 --> 00:06:53,371
but were trapped in such a cycle
of codependency. You know?
138
00:06:53,872 --> 00:06:55,665
Yeah, totally.
139
00:06:56,499 --> 00:06:58,501
Anyways, my mom grew up here
140
00:06:58,585 --> 00:07:00,587
and felt a spiritual pull
to reconnect to her roots
141
00:07:00,670 --> 00:07:02,047
during the healing process.
142
00:07:02,672 --> 00:07:05,717
But also, she barely knows how
to use a washing machine,
143
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:07,761
so I didn't want her
to move up here alone.
144
00:07:07,844 --> 00:07:08,678
What about you?
145
00:07:09,179 --> 00:07:10,472
Are you new, too?
146
00:07:11,222 --> 00:07:12,057
No.
147
00:07:12,724 --> 00:07:15,477
-All my friends are dead.
-Hmm.
148
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:16,603
Kidding!
149
00:07:16,686 --> 00:07:17,854
Oh. [laughs]
150
00:07:18,271 --> 00:07:19,147
They're absent.
151
00:07:19,230 --> 00:07:22,442
You're funny. Dark, but funny. [chuckles]
152
00:07:23,610 --> 00:07:24,527
Wanna hear a joke?
153
00:07:25,654 --> 00:07:28,239
How do you catch a unique rabbit?
154
00:07:28,990 --> 00:07:30,241
You-nique up on it.
155
00:07:31,493 --> 00:07:33,286
Oh. [laughs]
156
00:07:33,370 --> 00:07:36,414
That has to be the worst joke
I've ever heard.
157
00:07:36,915 --> 00:07:38,458
I got it from a Popsicle stick.
158
00:07:38,541 --> 00:07:39,960
I have a whole box at home.
159
00:07:40,460 --> 00:07:42,629
Of Popsicles, not just the sticks.
160
00:07:44,923 --> 00:07:46,675
You could come over if you wanted to,
161
00:07:47,175 --> 00:07:49,803
like, later today,if you want.
162
00:07:50,845 --> 00:07:52,138
Yeah, I'd like to.
163
00:07:53,390 --> 00:07:56,851
[Mary Anne] I couldn't believe how fast
Dawn said yes to hanging out with me.
164
00:07:57,227 --> 00:07:58,603
She must have really been lonely.
165
00:08:01,022 --> 00:08:03,650
But first I had to babysit
for Bailey Delvecchio.
166
00:08:03,942 --> 00:08:06,903
This was the job that destroyed
all my friendships,
167
00:08:06,987 --> 00:08:11,950
but I vowed not to let my personal tragedy
interfere with my ability to do good care.
168
00:08:12,033 --> 00:08:12,993
Pinkies out!
169
00:08:13,535 --> 00:08:16,871
We must show the new Royal Highness how
to comport oneself.
170
00:08:17,080 --> 00:08:18,665
Shouldn't we, my queen?
171
00:08:18,748 --> 00:08:21,626
I'm the Princess, not the Queen.
172
00:08:21,710 --> 00:08:25,422
The Queen wears dresses
that look like boxes.
173
00:08:25,505 --> 00:08:28,466
[laughs] I stand corrected. Now, sip.
174
00:08:29,884 --> 00:08:32,929
-Oops.
-Splendid, Your Highness.
175
00:08:33,013 --> 00:08:36,474
You've given us the perfect reason
to go pick out a new dress.
176
00:08:38,810 --> 00:08:40,812
[both laugh]
177
00:08:49,487 --> 00:08:50,822
Well, these won't do.
178
00:08:51,448 --> 00:08:53,450
Where are your clothes, Princess Bailey?
179
00:08:53,533 --> 00:08:54,492
Those are my old clothes.
180
00:08:54,576 --> 00:08:57,871
Over here are my new clothes!
181
00:08:58,329 --> 00:09:00,040
This one's very, very beautiful.
182
00:09:00,123 --> 00:09:03,001
Ooh! This one's my favorite.
183
00:09:03,710 --> 00:09:05,045
Mommy!
184
00:09:05,128 --> 00:09:06,171
Princess!
185
00:09:06,254 --> 00:09:07,505
You having a good time?
186
00:09:07,589 --> 00:09:09,674
I'm so sorry, were we too loud?
187
00:09:09,758 --> 00:09:10,759
Are you kidding?
188
00:09:10,842 --> 00:09:12,886
I'm just glad
you two are getting along so well.
189
00:09:12,969 --> 00:09:15,430
Mommy, look what Mary Anne showed me.
190
00:09:15,805 --> 00:09:17,766
-[Francine gasps] Wow!
-[Mary Anne] That's when I understood.
191
00:09:17,849 --> 00:09:18,808
Bailey was a little girl,
192
00:09:18,892 --> 00:09:20,977
and her new clothes
helped people see that.
193
00:09:23,521 --> 00:09:26,691
It's like this.
Are you right-handed or left-handed?
194
00:09:26,775 --> 00:09:27,609
Right.
195
00:09:27,692 --> 00:09:29,486
And you've known this
since you were little?
196
00:09:29,569 --> 00:09:30,695
Pretty much.
197
00:09:30,779 --> 00:09:33,531
And if someone tried to make you
do everything with your left hand,
198
00:09:33,615 --> 00:09:35,116
it would be super weird, right?
199
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:38,578
If I tried to use scissors,
I'd definitely stab myself. [laughs]
200
00:09:38,661 --> 00:09:40,580
Well, that's how Bailey feels.
201
00:09:41,331 --> 00:09:43,333
The same way that you know
that you're right-handed,
202
00:09:43,416 --> 00:09:44,793
Bailey knows she's a girl.
203
00:09:45,376 --> 00:09:48,713
And we all want our outsides
to match our inside, right?
204
00:09:49,923 --> 00:09:54,094
Yeah, and it's rad to have parents
and a babysitter who get it.
205
00:09:55,053 --> 00:09:55,970
She's really lucky.
206
00:09:57,597 --> 00:09:59,641
You seem to know a lot about this stuff.
207
00:10:00,183 --> 00:10:01,976
Well, I am from California.
208
00:10:02,769 --> 00:10:04,104
[laughs]
209
00:10:04,437 --> 00:10:06,481
I realized in that moment
210
00:10:06,564 --> 00:10:08,608
that I never made a new friend
without Kristy before
211
00:10:08,691 --> 00:10:10,235
and right in the nick of time,
212
00:10:10,318 --> 00:10:12,946
because if the club meeting the next day
was any sign,
213
00:10:13,029 --> 00:10:16,449
-I may have lost all my friends for good.
-[laughs]
214
00:10:20,370 --> 00:10:22,372
[rings]
215
00:10:23,540 --> 00:10:24,749
Hello, Baby-Sitters Club.
216
00:10:24,833 --> 00:10:27,168
This is President Kristy Thomas speaking.
217
00:10:29,337 --> 00:10:31,798
Oh, hi, Mrs. Delvecchio.
218
00:10:33,133 --> 00:10:34,134
This Sunday?
219
00:10:35,135 --> 00:10:37,053
Nice, a matinee in the city.
220
00:10:38,721 --> 00:10:39,764
I'll see who's available--
221
00:10:42,350 --> 00:10:43,309
Right.
222
00:10:43,726 --> 00:10:45,854
I'm sure she'd be more than happy to.
223
00:10:45,937 --> 00:10:49,232
After all, Mary Anne is the best.
224
00:10:51,442 --> 00:10:52,318
Thank you.
225
00:10:54,237 --> 00:10:57,991
So, special requests for Mary Anne
are standard now?
226
00:10:58,825 --> 00:11:02,203
None of us are allowed to leave the house
this week, remember?
227
00:11:02,328 --> 00:11:03,621
Except for Club meetings.
228
00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:05,456
[Mary Anne] They were still mad at me.
229
00:11:05,540 --> 00:11:07,083
Maybe they deserved to be,
230
00:11:07,167 --> 00:11:10,378
but at least I got to hang out
that weekend with my new friend Dawn.
231
00:11:10,461 --> 00:11:13,047
Sorry, I have to work on
sounding less obsessed.
232
00:11:13,131 --> 00:11:14,883
She invited me to come
with her and her mom
233
00:11:14,966 --> 00:11:18,011
to some kind of all-female cookout
her aunt Esme was hosting.
234
00:11:18,094 --> 00:11:20,471
She is a little on the zany side,
235
00:11:21,055 --> 00:11:22,891
but she throws a great gathering.
236
00:11:22,974 --> 00:11:26,102
As long as you're not bothered
by a little light neo-shamanism.
237
00:11:26,186 --> 00:11:27,395
Oh, shoot.
238
00:11:27,478 --> 00:11:29,230
-Dawn, did we remember--
-The sage?
239
00:11:29,314 --> 00:11:30,398
You're perfect.
240
00:11:30,481 --> 00:11:32,650
Just a little more left-brained than you,
that's all.
241
00:11:32,734 --> 00:11:35,528
I'm sure that's exactly what you call it
when you talk to your therapist, too.
242
00:11:35,612 --> 00:11:37,989
[laughing]
243
00:11:42,994 --> 00:11:45,455
At last. Our goddesses of honor.
244
00:11:45,538 --> 00:11:48,082
Would it have killed you to be on time
for your own welcome ritual?
245
00:11:48,458 --> 00:11:49,584
Hi, Esme.
246
00:11:50,168 --> 00:11:52,545
Your aunt is Morbidda Destiny?
247
00:11:52,629 --> 00:11:53,671
What?
248
00:11:53,755 --> 00:11:56,132
That's what the little girl next door
calls her.
249
00:11:56,216 --> 00:11:58,468
[laughs]
Esme wishes that was her witch name.
250
00:11:59,010 --> 00:12:01,554
-So she is a witch.
-Yes.
251
00:12:01,638 --> 00:12:04,098
More like a spiritual healer.
252
00:12:04,766 --> 00:12:08,728
Ladies, our tarot card reader
has a hard out in 45 minutes.
253
00:12:08,811 --> 00:12:10,396
Come on. Let's do this thing.
254
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,283
Join hands, moon sisters.
255
00:12:22,867 --> 00:12:25,495
Gather around the decorative stump.
[laughs]
256
00:12:25,870 --> 00:12:27,121
As you all know,
257
00:12:27,205 --> 00:12:30,208
there's a new moon in Scorpio this month,
258
00:12:30,291 --> 00:12:34,545
so many of us may be feeling a great deal
of upheaval this week.
259
00:12:34,629 --> 00:12:37,006
So, come forward.
260
00:12:37,423 --> 00:12:40,301
Share in this time of great transition.
261
00:12:40,885 --> 00:12:43,054
The universe is listening.
262
00:12:43,429 --> 00:12:44,806
I want to go first.
263
00:12:45,306 --> 00:12:47,892
Oh! My darling Dawn.
264
00:12:47,976 --> 00:12:48,851
Come!
265
00:12:49,310 --> 00:12:51,854
The talking stick is yours.
266
00:12:54,732 --> 00:12:57,902
I just want to say thanks
to my Aunt Esme...
267
00:12:59,028 --> 00:13:01,322
and to all of you for welcoming us.
268
00:13:01,739 --> 00:13:04,909
Moving across the country is about
as big a change as you can make.
269
00:13:04,993 --> 00:13:06,369
I feel you there.
270
00:13:06,452 --> 00:13:08,621
Last week,
my ex-husband was trying to tell me--
271
00:13:08,705 --> 00:13:10,164
It's not about you right now, Barb.
272
00:13:11,165 --> 00:13:14,168
But there's great things
about change, too,
273
00:13:15,003 --> 00:13:18,298
like my new friend,
who I brought with me today.
274
00:13:19,340 --> 00:13:20,383
Mary Anne.
275
00:13:21,467 --> 00:13:23,386
Welcome, Mary Anne.
276
00:13:23,803 --> 00:13:25,555
Come, share with us.
277
00:13:25,638 --> 00:13:26,597
[Mary Anne] Oh, no.
278
00:13:27,015 --> 00:13:30,018
Public speaking,
another recurring nightmare.
279
00:13:38,818 --> 00:13:39,694
Go on.
280
00:13:41,446 --> 00:13:42,488
Don't be shy.
281
00:13:42,822 --> 00:13:45,033
Bare your soul. Let us in.
282
00:13:45,742 --> 00:13:47,994
[Mary Anne] Bare my soul? Let them in?
283
00:13:48,536 --> 00:13:50,621
It wasn't that I didn't want to.
284
00:13:52,290 --> 00:13:55,418
[pants] I can't. I'm sorry. Ugh!
285
00:13:55,501 --> 00:13:56,377
[Dawn] Mary Anne!
286
00:13:58,046 --> 00:14:01,257
-Mary Anne!
-Now that is a Scorpio if I ever saw one.
287
00:14:07,972 --> 00:14:09,182
Mary Anne, wait!
288
00:14:09,265 --> 00:14:10,099
What?
289
00:14:11,351 --> 00:14:12,727
I'm sorry, okay?
290
00:14:13,686 --> 00:14:16,606
I'm sorry I'm so shy.
I'm sorry I'm not cool and funny,
291
00:14:16,689 --> 00:14:20,735
and I'm sorry I'm so scared of everyone
and everything, and I'm sorry!
292
00:14:21,486 --> 00:14:24,447
I'm sorry I can't even stop
saying I'm sorry. [whimpers]
293
00:14:26,657 --> 00:14:27,492
Okay.
294
00:14:33,581 --> 00:14:34,415
"Okay"?
295
00:14:35,666 --> 00:14:36,501
Yeah.
296
00:14:37,126 --> 00:14:40,963
I mean, a new moon sharemony
is not everyone's cup of tea.
297
00:14:41,464 --> 00:14:42,298
But...
298
00:14:43,132 --> 00:14:44,634
didn't I embarrass you?
299
00:14:45,718 --> 00:14:49,138
[sighs]
Don't you think I'm a pathetic crybaby
300
00:14:49,222 --> 00:14:52,266
who's constantly making a total fool
of herself?
301
00:14:52,350 --> 00:14:55,311
No, I think you were
understandably freaked out,
302
00:14:55,395 --> 00:14:57,939
but it doesn't really matter what I think.
303
00:14:58,439 --> 00:15:00,942
If you believe you're a pathetic crybaby,
304
00:15:01,526 --> 00:15:04,153
well, who am I to tell you otherwise?
305
00:15:04,862 --> 00:15:06,823
[Mary Anne]
Sometimes I felt strong and fearless.
306
00:15:06,906 --> 00:15:08,574
Come on.We don't have to go back there.
307
00:15:09,283 --> 00:15:11,327
-We can go sit over there. We can talk.
-[laughing]
308
00:15:11,411 --> 00:15:12,412
[Mary Anne] And other times,
309
00:15:12,495 --> 00:15:14,747
-I felt like a little baby.
-We could play Uno.
310
00:15:15,832 --> 00:15:18,209
I wish I had someone to talk to
about this stuff,
311
00:15:18,793 --> 00:15:20,503
someone who would understand.
312
00:15:20,837 --> 00:15:22,672
I want my mommy.
313
00:15:23,548 --> 00:15:24,674
[Mary Anne] Exactly.
314
00:15:28,010 --> 00:15:29,929
She'll be back in a couple of hours.
315
00:15:30,346 --> 00:15:34,100
We can act out the royal wedding
at least five times before then.
316
00:15:34,183 --> 00:15:36,519
My head hurts.
317
00:15:39,564 --> 00:15:40,523
[Mary Anne] Oh, no.
318
00:15:40,982 --> 00:15:42,233
Bailey was burning up.
319
00:15:42,650 --> 00:15:45,153
Francine, you're probably not picking up
320
00:15:45,236 --> 00:15:49,323
because My Fair Lady has a long first act,
but Bailey has a fever.
321
00:15:49,866 --> 00:15:52,368
It's 104 degrees.
[sighs] I don't know what to do.
322
00:15:53,035 --> 00:15:54,954
Call me back as soon as you get this.
323
00:15:55,037 --> 00:15:58,082
I thought about calling the other members
of The Baby-Sitters Club,
324
00:15:58,166 --> 00:16:01,085
but they were probablystill too mad at me
to answer.
325
00:16:01,544 --> 00:16:04,380
I called my dad,
but he didn't answer, either.
326
00:16:04,839 --> 00:16:07,216
There wasn't anyone else coming
to save the day.
327
00:16:07,550 --> 00:16:09,302
There was only me.
328
00:16:13,014 --> 00:16:15,224
[rings]
329
00:16:15,349 --> 00:16:16,559
-Hello.
-[woman] 911.
330
00:16:16,642 --> 00:16:18,394
Hi.I have an emergency.
331
00:16:19,854 --> 00:16:21,230
[Mary Anne] I was terrified,
332
00:16:21,647 --> 00:16:24,609
but looking at Bailey's face,
I knew I had to be brave.
333
00:16:25,359 --> 00:16:26,194
Hey.
334
00:16:28,654 --> 00:16:30,406
-[laughing]
-Ready? Fish face.
335
00:16:34,785 --> 00:16:38,664
Okay, took a while, but we finally found
a file for a Bailey Delvecchio.
336
00:16:38,748 --> 00:16:41,125
Is 32 Burnhill Road
still the current address?
337
00:16:41,209 --> 00:16:42,919
-Yeah.
-Have you been giving him fluids?
338
00:16:43,002 --> 00:16:45,087
If he's dehydrated,
we'll need to place an IV.
339
00:16:45,171 --> 00:16:46,589
Have him change into this.
340
00:16:47,256 --> 00:16:49,509
I don't want the blue one.
341
00:16:49,592 --> 00:16:50,676
Oh, well--
342
00:16:50,760 --> 00:16:52,428
I hear someone's not feeling well.
343
00:16:52,512 --> 00:16:54,013
Let's take a look at the little man.
344
00:16:58,226 --> 00:17:00,061
Can I please talk to you two outside?
345
00:17:07,193 --> 00:17:09,737
I know that you guys are busy.
346
00:17:09,820 --> 00:17:14,158
But as you would see,
if you looked at her and not her chart,
347
00:17:14,742 --> 00:17:16,077
Bailey is not a boy.
348
00:17:17,036 --> 00:17:20,665
And by treating her like one,
you are completely ignoring who she is.
349
00:17:21,123 --> 00:17:24,460
You're making her feel insignificant
and humiliated.
350
00:17:24,835 --> 00:17:27,880
And that's not gonna help her feel good
or safe or calm.
351
00:17:28,422 --> 00:17:33,052
So, from here on out,
please recognize her for who she is.
352
00:17:33,928 --> 00:17:37,557
And if at all possible, could you find me
a non-blue hospital gown?
353
00:17:37,640 --> 00:17:38,599
Our apologies.
354
00:17:40,476 --> 00:17:41,519
Mary Anne.
355
00:17:41,602 --> 00:17:42,436
Dad.
356
00:17:43,145 --> 00:17:45,982
Oh, Mary Anne. Thank God for you.
357
00:17:46,357 --> 00:17:47,233
Where's my baby?
358
00:17:47,316 --> 00:17:48,734
Over there.
359
00:17:50,278 --> 00:17:52,822
[Francine] Oh, honey. Oh...
360
00:17:53,656 --> 00:17:56,075
[Mary Anne] Bailey had her parents
to protect her now.
361
00:17:57,451 --> 00:17:59,203
And I had to deal with mine.
362
00:18:09,839 --> 00:18:11,048
[sighs]
363
00:18:12,383 --> 00:18:15,094
Dad, I'm sorry.
364
00:18:15,177 --> 00:18:18,431
I know I should've waited for you to call
back before I went to the hospital.
365
00:18:18,514 --> 00:18:19,807
I didn't mean to make you worry.
366
00:18:19,890 --> 00:18:22,435
I just really wanted to make sure
that Bailey was okay.
367
00:18:22,518 --> 00:18:23,352
Wait.
368
00:18:24,729 --> 00:18:26,314
You think I'm upset with you?
369
00:18:27,648 --> 00:18:29,900
I'm overwhelmed by you.
370
00:18:32,028 --> 00:18:33,988
Hearing you talk to those doctors
that way...
371
00:18:35,156 --> 00:18:37,283
you reminded me so much of your mother.
372
00:18:37,700 --> 00:18:38,534
I did?
373
00:18:39,118 --> 00:18:39,952
Yes.
374
00:18:42,246 --> 00:18:44,248
This may come as a surprise to you, but...
375
00:18:45,166 --> 00:18:47,084
it hasn't been easy...
376
00:18:48,085 --> 00:18:49,295
raising you alone.
377
00:18:51,339 --> 00:18:55,092
Most of the time I feel as though
I have no idea what I'm doing.
378
00:18:56,302 --> 00:18:57,428
But seeing you now,
379
00:18:58,095 --> 00:18:59,597
standing up for that little girl...
380
00:19:01,515 --> 00:19:03,392
I thought to myself, "If she can do that,
381
00:19:03,976 --> 00:19:05,770
then maybe I haven't screwed up
after all."
382
00:19:08,481 --> 00:19:11,567
That maybe your mom would be
a little bit proud of me.
383
00:19:13,110 --> 00:19:14,236
I think she would be.
384
00:19:15,071 --> 00:19:16,864
[sighs] Thank you.
385
00:19:18,866 --> 00:19:19,950
[sighs]
386
00:19:21,035 --> 00:19:22,662
Can I ask you something?
387
00:19:23,746 --> 00:19:25,081
Of course, sweetheart, anything.
388
00:19:26,415 --> 00:19:27,667
Can I change my hair?
389
00:19:29,001 --> 00:19:30,628
I want to feel more confident,
390
00:19:31,253 --> 00:19:32,963
more grown-up...
391
00:19:33,923 --> 00:19:37,259
but it's hard
when I look like such a baby.
392
00:19:38,177 --> 00:19:42,431
Mary Anne, you can do
whatever you want to your hair.
393
00:19:43,391 --> 00:19:44,350
Really?
394
00:19:44,433 --> 00:19:45,685
I always put your hair in braids
395
00:19:45,768 --> 00:19:48,521
because it's the only thing
your mother taught me how to do. [laughs]
396
00:19:48,604 --> 00:19:50,272
Well, what about these clothes?
397
00:19:50,356 --> 00:19:51,190
What about your clothes?
398
00:19:51,273 --> 00:19:54,151
-Kitten overalls?
-Well.
399
00:19:54,235 --> 00:19:55,444
Wheelie bags?
400
00:19:55,528 --> 00:19:56,779
Okay, stop right there.
401
00:19:56,862 --> 00:19:59,865
-A wheeled bag is orthopedically sound.
-[laughs]
402
00:19:59,949 --> 00:20:03,202
If you want to condemn yourself
to a life of chronic middle back pain,
403
00:20:03,285 --> 00:20:05,246
-be my guest.
-[both laugh]
404
00:20:07,039 --> 00:20:07,873
Thank you, Dad.
405
00:20:12,002 --> 00:20:13,170
I'm so proud of you.
406
00:20:13,254 --> 00:20:15,297
[Mary Anne] You can't always tell
from someone's outside
407
00:20:15,381 --> 00:20:16,799
who they are on the inside.
408
00:20:16,882 --> 00:20:17,717
Ice cream?
409
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:18,718
Definitely.
410
00:20:19,343 --> 00:20:22,763
[Mary Anne] But if you never ask them,
they never get a chance to surprise you.
411
00:20:24,849 --> 00:20:28,477
I went to the BSC meeting on Monday,
braced for conflict.
412
00:20:30,438 --> 00:20:32,189
But speaking of surprises...
413
00:20:32,273 --> 00:20:34,150
Oh, my God, we heard everything!
414
00:20:34,233 --> 00:20:37,820
Your dad called all of our parents again
and told them what happened.
415
00:20:37,903 --> 00:20:39,864
Mary Anne, you're a hero.
416
00:20:39,947 --> 00:20:41,532
Plus, we're ungrounded now.
417
00:20:41,615 --> 00:20:43,909
Your dad said he's glad you're in a club
with other young women
418
00:20:43,993 --> 00:20:46,036
-who are such great influences.
-That's us!
419
00:20:46,120 --> 00:20:47,121
Yeah!
420
00:20:47,663 --> 00:20:49,415
What was it like riding in an ambulance?
421
00:20:49,832 --> 00:20:52,126
I would have had a literal panic attack.
422
00:20:52,209 --> 00:20:53,127
Not Mary Anne.
423
00:20:53,210 --> 00:20:54,462
-Fearless under pressure.
-[laughing]
424
00:20:55,337 --> 00:20:56,922
You made the whole club look awesome, too.
425
00:20:57,631 --> 00:20:58,674
Right, Kristy?
426
00:21:00,009 --> 00:21:01,635
Yeah. She did.
427
00:21:03,429 --> 00:21:07,683
We have to celebrate.
There are gummy worms in the chair,
428
00:21:07,767 --> 00:21:11,312
and for those of you who prefer
non-gelatin-based candy,
429
00:21:11,979 --> 00:21:13,022
M&Ms.
430
00:21:14,815 --> 00:21:17,401
Sorry for being such a jerk to you
in the cafeteria.
431
00:21:17,651 --> 00:21:18,736
To make up for it,
432
00:21:18,819 --> 00:21:22,239
I made a playlist called
"Mary Anne Is Boss" because you are.
433
00:21:22,823 --> 00:21:26,619
-♪ Mary Anne, Mary Anne, Mary Anne... ♪
-[laughing]
434
00:21:28,245 --> 00:21:29,205
So...
435
00:21:30,122 --> 00:21:31,540
can we be friends again, too?
436
00:21:32,249 --> 00:21:34,710
Yeah, as long as your new best friend
doesn't mind.
437
00:21:34,794 --> 00:21:36,378
Oh, Kristy.
438
00:21:36,629 --> 00:21:38,047
Don't be such a baby.
439
00:21:38,130 --> 00:21:40,341
[laughs]
440
00:21:41,425 --> 00:21:43,093
[Mary Anne]
I don't really believe in Morbidda...
441
00:21:43,177 --> 00:21:46,096
I mean, Aunt Esme's "moon of the Scorpio"
type stuff,
442
00:21:46,180 --> 00:21:48,682
but there certainly have been a lot
of changes this month.
443
00:21:48,766 --> 00:21:50,267
A fantastic new friend...
444
00:21:51,060 --> 00:21:53,979
and some new, shall we say, swagger.
445
00:21:56,982 --> 00:22:02,029
♪ Mary Anne, Mary Anne
Mary Anne, Mary Anne... ♪
446
00:22:03,656 --> 00:22:06,784
I felt my outside was finally starting
to match my inside:
447
00:22:06,867 --> 00:22:08,285
grown-up and sparkly.
448
00:22:13,541 --> 00:22:16,919
My dad even let me invite Dawn and her mom
for family Thanksgiving...
449
00:22:17,002 --> 00:22:18,379
You look terrific.
450
00:22:18,462 --> 00:22:22,049
...without stalking them online
and asking for Social Security numbers.
451
00:22:22,424 --> 00:22:25,594
A small step for man,
a giant leap for my dad.
452

Hi, oh, my gosh!
456
00:22:36,272 --> 00:22:38,023
You look amazing.

Do you guys know each other?
464
00:22:55,374 --> 00:22:58,294
-A long time ago.
-We went to high school together.
465
00:22:58,377 --> 00:23:00,129
They dated. In a big way.
466
00:23:00,838 --> 00:23:03,549
Hope you're not the kind of family
who doesn't do stuffing.
467
00:23:04,008 --> 00:23:05,801
[Richard laughs] Well.
468
00:23:06,302 --> 00:23:07,678
Aunt Esme hasn't changed a bit.
469
00:23:07,761 --> 00:23:08,804
-Nope.
-[Richard] Yeah.
470
00:23:08,888 --> 00:23:10,556
-Well, please come in.
-Thank you.
471
00:23:12,641 --> 00:23:14,852

was gonna be special.
