The Bold Type

Previously, on "The Bold Type..."

I went to the doctor and they gave me the go-ahead

to start my egg-freezing process.

- That's great. - Oh, except no drinking,

no carbs, and no sex for two weeks.

I'm gonna need you to run point

on the prom-themed shoot.

- Screw this. - Bye.

Oh, no. Guys.

Okay. Hey, can you give me

- ten minutes? - I'm billing for this time.

- Is that the Councilman? - Councilman Reynolds.

Look around. People need this space.

It doesn't work that way.

The developer's gonna put up...

A luxury condo. Right.

You really don't care, do you?

Left, right, hook, uppercut.

Right, hook, uppercut.

Left, right, hook, uppercut.

Left, right,

hook, uppercut.

Left, right, hook, uppercut.

Damn, Kat.

You are going to town.

Thank Councilman Reynolds for that.

I mean, Manhattan really needed

- another luxury condo? - Okay, now burpees!

Yeah, you know what?

I'm having surgery in 48 hours. Probably shouldn't do burpees.

Yeah, and my shoes are untied.

Oh, my gosh, so are yours.

- - So, once the eggs

It's literally all I can think about.

- So, hey, I'm kind of like you. - Aww.

Okay, warm-up over!

Let's grab your gloves!

Did you know

Councilman Reynolds... he voted against

paid maternity leave and then cut funding to parks.

- Somebody did their research. - This just pisses me off,

- you know? - Well, that's why you're gonna

volunteer for his opponent, right?

Oh, hell yeah.

Okay, now grab a partner.

- You ready? - Uh, yeah, you should

probably take her... 'cause of the surgery.

- Okay. - Yeah.

Okay, you ready?

- Yes. - Okay, let's do this.

- Okay. -

Left, right, left, right.

- Ow. - Left, right, left, right...

Easy, Kat. I didn't vote

for those condos.

Oh, my God.

I think it's incredible.

This is a great piece.

It's being re-Tweeted like crazy.

It's all over my feed.

What are you guys talking about?

Have you heard this new short story

in "New York Magazine," "Too Cold To Walk"?

No, I have not. What is it?

It's all about how this woman was suddenly pressured

during a hook-up.

My friend from Columbia wrote it.

We lost touch a couple years ago

but I'm gonna pitch a profile on her to Jacqueline.

Who are you writing a profile on?

My friend, Kristen. She wrote this story

- that went viral today. - Oh, yeah, I read that.

So are all straights as pushy as this Jeff dude?

Some of us are good guys.

You are a rare bird in a toxic stew of masculinity.

I think it's a little unfair to generalize.

Oh, and you... you're a serial monogamist.

- You're not out there like I am. - Well, I was.

I am out there, and I'm just saying that...

Whoa, whoa, whoa. I am, like, obsessed

with the conversation that you guys are having right now.

This is so much more interesting

than some puff piece. Alex, please,

will you write me this for the dotcom?

Like, as soon as you possibly can.

Well, actually, I was gonna pitch Jacqueline.

I want it. I'll handle it.

Cool?

- Okay. - Jane, what do you have

- for me this morning? - Actually,

I did have something I wanted to run by you.

- Cool. - Um...

"Your computer may be infected"?

- What is this? - Gee, I'm impressed.

Looks like you've been having some adult fun

- on your computer. - What are you talking about?

- That's porn spam. - No...

That's impossible.

"Your computer is infected. Download cleaner now."

- Oh, yeah, that is porn spam. - Yep.

What?

But I don't watch any.

You don't remember watching it.

You take sleeping pills?

I can go rogue when I pop a couple of those suckers.

No, I... look, I don't watch porn.

Well, someone who uses your computer does.

How's it going in there? We should head down

- to the studio soon. - Oh, yeah, it's fine.

It's not fine. I can't zip it up.

What happened? I got your measurements

- from your agency. - I just got back from Tokyo

with my boyfriend.

- We ate lots of ramen. - Oh, my gosh,

you were tinier than you are right now?

Okay, maybe we can cheat it.

Let me see.

Um, nope. Definitely can't cheat it.

Okay, um, well, we only have the photographer until 1:00.

Oh, my God, my agency's gonna drop me.

I'm not gonna tell them, but if we don't

shoot this today, then "Scarlet" doesn't have

a fashion spread next month and then my agency's

gonna drop me. You feel?

Oh, crap.

Um...

Take off the dress.

Councilman Reynolds was golfing in Scottsdale.

Yes, you can print that.

- Hi, can I help you? - Linda Zephyr, right?

- That's me. - It's nice to meet you.

- I'm Kat Edison. - Hi.

- Hi. - Kat, meet Tia.

Tia's my campaign manager.

- Kat is here to... - Uh, just to volunteer.

Great. Yeah, we could use

all the help we can get. Um, I can maybe get you

- a school credit... - Oh, I, uh...

I'm not in school.

Baby face. I am actually the head

of social media at "Scarlet" magazine.

- Really? - Mm-hmm.

Kat and I are gonna chat while you get back

to the phone. Please follow me.

Okay. Nice to meet you.

- You, too. - "Scarlet" magazine.

- You must get quite the reach. - Oh, yeah.

Uh, six million on social.

Not all of them in New York, but most.

So obviously you want to volunteer with all

- your free time. - Oh, I'm just, uh,

looking for something to channel my rage

and depression.

Sounds right. Thank you so much.

Um, so listen, we're actually having a rally...

- thank you... in two days. - Okay.

Linda is amazing with policy, not so much messaging.

I could really use your help with that.

All right. I'm in.

- Yeah? - Mm-hmm.

- Welcome aboard. - Thanks.

What is happening here?

Uh, well...

think Ryan used my computer

to release some tension.

You know, whatever's on that keyboard

has already been in your mouth, so...

That...

- is a good point. - Hey, what's going on?

Ryan pinstriped all over Jane's computer.

- Okay word-play. - Yeah.

So, um, you know, I just met with Linda Zephyr.

- Ah. - I wanna show you, um...

- over here. - It's clean.

I'm gonna show you...

she's great, has a lot of amazing ideas,

but just watch this.

Hi, I'm Linda Zephyr.

I've served the communities of Lower Manhattan

for 30 years.

I worked with Mayor De Blasio to preserve over 24,000

affordable housing units.

- When Sandy hit, I was there... -

- Sorry. -

Can we please focus? She needs our help.

Oh, boy.

Well, I can...

definitely give her a fashion refresh.

And I could pitch a story about her to Patrick.

Let's get our girl elected, ay.

- Up top. - Yeah.

So what was, uh, Pinstripe watching, anyway?

Actually, I don't know because he cleared

- his search history. - Mm, veteran move.

You could still get it.
