Being Erica

Previously on "Being Erica":

What can I say to stop you?

Just kiss me...

And say goodbye.

I'm tired of being on the dl.

Brent, stop it. I meant it.

I can't keep going like this.

I want you, Julianne, but not like this.

So when you're ready to be out and proud,

come talk to me.

I know that you didn't mean to hurt me.

Of course I didn't.

But you did.

Jenny, you did.

I destroyed our relationship the first time

by holding myself apart from Amanda.

I won't do that again.

You can't tell her, Tom.

It's simply not an option.

We must keep this, what we do, a secret.

I don't want Kai, I don't want a fantasy.

I just want you.

Can we just try again?

Even if there's no guarantee that it'll work this time,

can we just try?

Yeah.

Let's try again.

- Adam! - Morning.

- Hey. - Hey.

What're you doing?

I'm brushing my teeth.

I can see that.

But I'm kind of in the middle of something here.

You do what you gotta do, baby.

Not with you standing there.

What? We're both human.

I don't expect you to be anything more

than a regular person.

'Kay, you know what? The door was closed,

and I need some privacy.

And I need to brush my teeth.

So if you want me out of here,

you're just gonna have to smoke me out.

Get out!

Oh, no!

- Get out! - No!

Get out!

Adam!

Actually...

I think you're gonna need that.

You... You are so gonna get it.

Okay, that is it!

Everyone knows that you don't come in the bathroom

when the door is closed.

You are the one with the rules about the bathroom.

Door closed. Oh, and running the water,

like I don't know what's going on.

Okay, okay, that's enough.

All right?

Everyone knows.

Not everyone. You.

You have a thing with the bathroom,

I don't.

And this is a one bathroom apartment.

You should be nice to me today.

It's my birthday.

It's your birthday?

Mm-hm.

- Really? - Mm-hm.

Well then...

Happy Birthday.

Ooh!

A day at Urban Bliss?!

Adam, this is...

The nicest spa in the city!

- Yeah? - Thank you! Thank you!

Wow!

Okay, full disclosure?

I came this close to getting a cool vacuum robot

with like infrared sensors,

but I stopped myself.

I'm glad you did.

Mm. I thought, I'd like a robot,

but what would Erica want?

And so now you can go and get a massage,

or get your toenails painted and...

Um, it's called a pedicure.

Oh. Well, I wouldn't know. I've never been to a spa.

Why don't we go together this afternoon?!

Um...

Oh please! Please, Adam? You will love it.

We'll get like all pampered

and it'll be an adventure.

Please, please, please, please, please?

All right.

But I draw the line at anything

that involves nail polish.

Done.

Okay, so it's you and me, together,

this afternoon at the spa,

and then we have the party at Goblins tonight.

Uh... but first,

I have to go meet the graphic editor

for "A Tattered Rose."

Yeah.

So gonna be fun.

- Mm-hm. - Mm-hm.

He's tall, artistic, sexy.

He's perfect, actually.

You know you're saying all this out loud, right?

No, for Julianne. I mean, that girl,

she's been single for way too long.

- Erica. - Yeah?

I know you,

and I know what you're doing.

In a world where cities are vast

and filled with strangers,

our only refuge is in the people we know.

Those people in our lives who share our ideals,

our values, our sense of humour.

How wonderful to be able to count on that familiarity,

on knowing we're not alone.

Erica,

I didn't want to tell you on your birthday,

but there's never gonna be a right time for you to find out.

Okay, cut.

What?

You're telling her that we're dating,

not that she has terminal cancer.

I know,

but I don't know how she's gonna take the news.

I have to be delicate.

Or we could just wait until tomorrow.

No.

No. Birthday or no birthday,

you're telling her.

And once we explain that this isn't just a fling,

and that we...

"Heart" each other?

She'll be happy for us.

Good morning, 50/50.

Being Erica 04x10 "Purim" Original Air date: December 5, 2011.

What's um... What's going on?

Erica, we didn't wanna tell you on your birthday,

or like this,

but Brent and I are dating.

Each other.

Wha... what?

Yeah, I tried to tell you at Dave and Ivan's wedding,

but then you left with Adam before I could.

Whoa. Can we just go back a second?

Sure.

You two are... You're dating?

Bf and Gf.

Okay. Since when?

I mean, since the wedding?

Oh... not quite.

It was just a little bit before that.

A little bit before... The rehearsal dinner?

Tomorrow, it'll be a month.

A month?!

We were gonna tell you the minute

you walked through the door, really.

Good morning, team!

Rachel, can you grab us three lattes, please?

And just take your time.

We're in the middle of something here.

Oh my God, you told her.

Finally!

Wait. You told...

You told Rachel before me?

I, I, I...

She didn't tell me out loud.

Who has two thumbs and is psychic?

Moi.

Wow.

You two... together.

Are you mad?

No, I'm not. I mean, I'm not mad.

Uh, just... A little shocked.

Yeah, well, believe me, so was I.

Well, congrats, you two!

Thanks.

Mischa! You're early.

I'm always early.

If you need time, please,

I will wait.

Uh, no. I think we're good to go.

Definitely. Mm-hm.

So why don't you just set your computer up right here.

As you can see,

I have gone in two different directions

for the book cover.

Okay, well, um...

I like this option.

Oh! Please, do not touch the screen.

Sorry, sorry. Um...

The other one obviously sells the fun,

but I find it just a little bit crass.

You know, it seems more a gossip rag
