So, uh, welcome back, Carol.

We are all so thrilled to see how well you're doing.

Thanks.

I am so ready for a fresh start.

Me too. Me too.

But just asking,

corporate knows what she did at my wedding?

Yep, they offered her a store transfer,

but lucky for us, she declined.

Like I'm gonna leave this store.

You guys are like family to me.

Yeah, so... sweet.

Um, Carol, before we can get you out on the floor again,

I've just been asked to get a quick apology.

Okay, great.

Oh, you think I should apologize?

Well, I mean, you almost made me kill your cat.

I did that?

You stole Jerry from me.

You rubbed your wedding in my face for months.

And then you asked me to be your Maid of Honor.

I mean, that was just cruel.

You told me I had to.

I don't know, Amy.

It seems like she's not ready to take responsibility.

You know, Carol, some people might think,

actually, that, um

you are the one who should apologize.

Oh. Oh, I see.

Um, the thing is,

when I spoke with C.J. DiBono at H.R.,

he said that my manager should be impartial.

And C.J. DiBono would know. I mean, he's...

he's C.J. DiBono.

He said I should call if there were any hiccups or...

Yeah. No, no, I don't...

I don't think we need to call C.J. DiBono.

We can handle this internally.

I just need a... A quick apology.

- Sorry. - I heard an apology.

Great. Let's get back to work.

Episode Title: "Carol's Back" Aired on: March 26, 2020

Sandra apologized to Carol?

I know. It's crazy.

She has some sort of, like, dark power.

I almost apologized to her.

Anyway, how's it going? Have you raised the wage yet?

Well, I just got here,

but it seems like a pretty good turnout.

I can still go to other Gateway Subs, right?

Just not that one?

Amy, they exploit their workers.

But they cure their own salami.

Amy, what the hell?

Carol's back? I gotta go.

Dina's reacting. Yes.

I sent around a memo saying

that she'd be back to work today.

- I thought that was a joke. - How is that a joke?

I don't know. You're not great at jokes.

It's hard to tell sometimes.

Yeah, you've dropped some real stinkers lately.

Remember you said that joke

about how Bill Cosby was framed?

Uh, no, that definitely wasn't me.

- Oh. - And this isn't a joke.

She finished her therapy,

and she got cleared to come back to work.

So after everything she's done,

she can just waltz back in here and wear the blue vest?

The only vest she should be wearing

is one with black and white stripes.

Like a referee?

No, like a jail vest, like a... vest you wear in jail.

Look, it doesn't really matter.

My hands are tied.

This is what corporate wants,

and we're not gonna make waves right now.

Carol already threatened to call C.J. DiBono on us.

- Oh, C.J. DiBono. - Oh, you don't want that.

- No thank you. - Mm-mm.

So you guys know who that is?

- No. - No.

But sounds important... scary.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

All right, all right,

we're doing it, everybody, getting it done.

Ha-ha, let's do it.

Whoo.

Cheyenne?

What... what are you doing here?

You sent out that email trying to get everyone to come.

Plus, it would be cool to make some more money.

Bo's still out of work,

and Harmonica keeps needing new clothes.

Ugh, I just wish she'd stop growing already.

Yeah, well, she's four, but, um, great.

You're going to love it here.

These people are so cool.

They're... they're passionate. They're progressive.

I've learned about four new bookstores

just from the tote bags alone.

Guys, come on. You can't be here.

I don't want to call the cops.

Hey, we've got our permits, and we're not blocking traffic.

So go ahead, call the cops.

Yeah. Yeah, call the cops.

Yeah, that's right.

You tell 'em. You tell 'em, Tommy.

That's Tommy.

He's lead organizer, total badass.

Got, like, a fight the power, Malcolm X kind of vibe.

Not... not because he's... You know,

just the... vibe-wise.

All right, my man, good work.

All right.

Oh, man, this is gonna take all day.

It's funny how the cleaning robot is causing the most mess.

It always goes after the Bluetooth speakers.

I think they're in a feud.

Might the start of the robot wars.

Oh, I so do not have time for this.

I need to be on my phone,

Celine Dion tickets go on sale today.

Well, why don't you just hire somebody on BusyBee?

It's a pretty cool app.

I got a guy to wait in line to get my Air Jordan 3 Unites,

which you haven't said anything about, no big deal.

Or I could wait for the tickets

and hire somebody do the actual, you know, work part.

Your job?

Hire somebody to do our jobs?

Yeah.

That's a great idea. I'm in.

I'll split it with you.

So why do you need everyone's number?

Oh, I'm, uh, getting a group text going.

Got this sweet "Norma Rae" GIF that I've been wanting to use.

I don't watch "Real Housewives."

Wait, where's Tommy's number?

Oh, he didn't want to put it on there.

He thinks that you're a spy from Gateway Subs,

like you're a narc or something.

Me? Why?

Yeah, he's just starting to wonder,

'cause sometimes companies send people in

to spy on groups like this,

and you showed up right when they were

starting to organizing this protest.

Plus, you've got that corporate haircut.

Honestly, your whole look and vibe is very classic narc.

Okay, did you tell him that you know me?

No, I don't want him to think I'm friends with a narc.

Look, if it were up to me,

she wouldn't be working here at all.

Most of you wouldn't be.

What's going on? Is everything okay?

Sayid doesn't want to work in Housewares.

Carol's there.

I just don't feel comfortable working near a crazy person.

Okay, you know what?

Let's not use the word "crazy."

It's... it's demeaning. Mm.

And it's debilitating

and some other word that corporate used

that I can't remember, but fine,

I'll move her into Seasonals with Justine.

Uh, no thank you.

I don't need the drama.

I'm a no-drama mama.

I even have a T-shirt that says that.

Okay, um, oh, yeah, Nicki.

How's your first day going, girl?

It's fine.

I've got a really fun assignment for you.

I know all about Carol. No, thank you.

How do you already know about her?

From, like, six people. Sounds like a real maniac.

Also not a word we should be using.

Amy, I think everyone's just trying to be safe.

People who hurt animals

eventually start hurting people.

It's true.

My uncle accidentally ran over a mongoose,

and then he punched out a guy at Foodland.

Okay, can we just stop talking about this?

The fact is, Carol has to work somewhere in the store,

so she's gonna be in somebody's department.

Well, it's obviously not gonna be Sandra.

I heard Carol freaked her out so much

she crapped her wedding dress.

- Oh. - Oh, um, that didn't happen.

You don't have to be embarrassed.

It's totally natural.

It happens to lots of brides at their wedding.

That's childbirth.

I didn't crap myself.

Amy, tell him.
