Ooh! Let's grab that table over there.
No, no, no, we're gonna stand at the bar and look sexy and approachable.
If men are gonna reject me, I'd much rather be seated.
- You know, set expectations. - Come on!
Plus, this bitch loves to sit!
[Tamika] Great, a dark musty corner.
[Melissa Jackson] Sitting is very highly underrated.
- [Tamika] If they can see us. - [Melissa giggles]
Oh! Hey!
Someone is making eyes at you from the bar.
- Oh, no thank you. No, no, no, no. - [Tamika and Allie laugh]
Do you even wanna meet someone?
Of course, I do, you know?
Not only do I need to, like, forget about Rory,
but I need to move on from Alex.
- Yes, you do. - Good. So, we know our goal.
Let us help you get there.
Okay, what you need to know about me
is that because of societal standards,
I'm like... human cilantro.
Seriously! To some guys, I'm like soap,
and the ones that do want me,
they're already up on somebody else's taco.
What about that guy that was flirting with you in class?
Oh, Carlos! Yes, yes, yes, yes, the fruit agent.
No! [laughs] I already did the work thing,
and it was a certifiable shit show.
But I met Lamar at work.
- Wait, why was he at Sephora? - [Tamika] Fashion week.
When you're a makeup artist, you meet fine-ass models on the reg,
like all day, and, honey, they all check for me.
I hadn't really thought about Carlos like that.
- Well, have you tried him out? - What do you mean?
Oh, I audition all my conquests.
I do a dry fantasy run, and if it becomes a wet fantasy run?
- [gasps] - [clicks] I make those dreams come true.
Okay, well, here's to making dreams come...

[Melissa] Okay, Allie, let's see what your app can do.
[crowd applause on app]
[narrator on app] My play premiere was a huge success.
I was giddy and tipsy from so many people congratulating me,
and that last glass of Prosecco certainly didn't help.
- [vibrator buzzing] - I sneak backstage to center myself
when I see that sexy actor Herman.
I'd always heard about understudies having a Star is Born moment.
[Melissa] I should really see that movie again.
The original, not Gaga's.
[narrator on app] Hey, girl, stop letting your mind wander.
You're supposed to be thinking about Carlos. Now, get to work.
I realized we were alone backstage.
He met my gaze and slowly sauntered over.
I was wondering if, uh, if you can help me.
- [♪ soft music playing] - I got sewed into these pants,
and it's kind of embarrassing, but I can't take them off.
[narrator on app] All I wanted to do was rip those pants right off,
but we needed them for tomorrow's performance.
So, I found a pin and knelt in front of him
to undo the stitches. I felt flush.
Was it the Prosecco, or was it him?
- [whoosh] - [vibrator continues]
[annoyed sigh]
You're supposed to be Carlos.
[narrator in app] You tell him, girl.
This is supposed to be a Carlos fantasy run.
Now help me, help you, and focus.
Where was I? Oh, yes.
The air was electric
as I slowly loosened each stitch on those pants.
I was so close to his Jack in the box,
I could tell he was ready to pop right out.
Tonight's performance was over, but I was up for an encore,
and he was definitely up, too.
Careful. That tickles.
[narrator in app] Wait, why are we letting him back in?
I just wanna make you happy.
[Melissa] Because I know he can get me there,
and I'm gonna be late for work. [sighs]

Hi.
As managers, you are the first line of defense against sexual harassment,
so it's important to know what constitutes harassment.
Well, that can include unwanted sexual advances,
comments about appearance,
catcalling, sexual innuendo.
[mutters] Having a vivid dream about a coworker?
- [soft laugh] - [instructor] Pardon me?
Uh...
Having a vivid... dream a-about a coworker,
does that-- does that count?
Not if you don't say it out loud.
- Noted. - [laughter]
As managers, you will be the eyes and ears of JFK.
And when it comes to romantic relationships in the workplace,
it's okay to ask a person out once.
But, if they say no, asking them again would be harassment.
What if you've been hanging out with someone, say, for a month and some change,
but you didn't have the DTR convo yet, hypothetically?
I don't know what DTR means.
"Define the relationship."
- Best not to shit where you eat. - [laughter]
Pardon my French.
As managers, it's best for you
to just disclose any workplace relationship
to the head of HR, so there are no issues if it goes south.
I can tell you that one in three US workers
have or are currently involved
in a romantic workplace relationship,
and the majority of those people,
they did not disclose to their employers.
So, my High Flyers,
the moral of this story is...
- disclose, disclose, disclose! - [clapping]
You don't have to do it three times. Just the once will be fine.
The other two times, I did for emphasis.
[♪ upbeat music playing]

Besides, she told me to invite you to Thanksgiving.
She can throw it down.
You make it hard to say no. Let me see if I can work out my schedule.
- You make the schedule. - [laughs]
Oh, um, I disclosed our relationship to HR.
Wait, why?
You're a manager. You should know that.
It's part of the sexual harassment seminar.
No, yeah, yeah, you right, you right.
- Yeah. - You right.
- [laughs] - What else did you learn today?
That telling you about the dream I had,
where I handcuffed you...
- Oh. - ...is definitely
- sexual harassment. - [laughs]
- Ms. Hill, you... - Mm-hmm?
...are very, very convincing.
[♪ sensual music playing]

- Deal. - Deal.

[Melissa] Then what kind of bachelorette is it?
We're just a bunch of married ladies, in matching PJs,

Man, I thought I'd have relationships figured out by now,

So...
