Workin' Moms

Kate: Previously on "Workin' Moms"

Kate.

I could sell a scuba tank to a sea horse.

And that's why you're here.

- You sure about this? - Yeah, I'm so sure.

Jenny, is that a nipple ring?

I'm sorry, I-I don't know what's going on with me.

Did you sell our baby?

- I sold our house. - Excuse me?

You wanna dress me?

Would you allow me to arrange something for you?

I'm drowning, Frankie. I can't do this anymore.

- -

- - Oh, God dammit.

- - Ugh.

Mmm.

Shhh. Enough.

Ugh.

- -

It's a rash. Charlie's got a rash.

Mm, good morning. How did you sleep?

Sorry, not such a good morning on this end.

Sarah got some last minute gig

and left me to fend for myself today.

And then this guy woke up hysterical.

I'm sorry. Okay, Do you wanna try my mom or...

Believe me, I've been up for hours.

I've tried everyone, no one can swing it.

Nathan, he gets rashes all the time.

You know, give him a lukewarm bath,

followed up with a heavy hint of rash cream.

Make him pound water all day.

It should be clear by tonight. I promise.

Okay, I get it. Let's move on.

- Are you nervous about today? - Mm-mm.

I feeling really good about it.

Finally time to flex my muscles in front of the Stromanger.

God, I hope I do her justice. She's a tough cookie.

You're gonna kill it.

And then I'm gonna be the one breaking out in hives.

Okay, I gotta get this kid in a hot bath.

- Lukewarm, Nathan. Nathan? -

Na...

Hey!

My mother is going to watch her for the day.

I made some scrambled eggs for the road.

In a bag, Frank?

This way they're portable.

I'm gonna fix this.

I'll get our house back.

- Mommy, are you sick? - Hmm?

No, honey, no. I'm just gonna,

kind of, take it easy today.

Okay good, because I still have to do that school project.

Right. The modern day woman interview thing, right?

Well, I am ready for my close up. How do I look?

You look... okay?

Okay great, let's do this.

Okay, so as a modern day woman,

where do you get most of your clothes?

As a modern day busy woman,

I get most of my clothes online.

Oh, so you don't make them yourself?

No. Some kid in Bangladesh makes my clothes.

You know, making your own clothes isn't that crazy.

I knit all my scarves.

I even made my own moccasins.

Is this before or after you foraged for berries?

After.

By the way, how're you feeling?

Uh, I'm all right. Thank you.

Okay, next question...

Jenny: Excuse me!

Hi!

I know I've been kind of dropping the ball lately,

but I just wanted to let you all know that I,

I filled the fridge with snacks.

What kind of snacks?

Lots of good stuff.

I went to the organic market, so it's all pretty high shelf.

Health food?

There's chips in there too.

- Arden: Any sweets? - Yeah.

Gena: Why would you do that?

Friday before the long weekend?

They dump everything in the fridge at 4:30.

Well, I think it was pretty solid of you, Jenny.

Arden: Ooh, baba ghanoush! I'll take it home, Jenny.

Okay, see, now I wish you'd taken requests

because some of us are allergic to eggplant.

If that gets in the vents; I'm anaphylactic.

Oops.

Well, you look great. Is that wool?

It is.

Being the leader in 20 consumer markets worldwide

is quite a feat.

But how do we make it to 40?

And that is where you're new, modern logo comes in.

Wha... what is that?

What? You call that a logo?

Yeah... where's the pig?

Mr. Westwood, the pig was cute

and he served you well,

but you're competing in a new market now.

Where sleek images have a greater impact.

Look, your product's quality shouldn't be touched.

It is, hands down, the finest on the market.

But packaging matters. We've tested both images

and this one has gotten more traction. Period.

But I specifically told Victoria,

I wanted to keep the pig.

But you didn't come here to get placated.

And I'm willing to risk our business

to show you that this is what's best for Westwood foods.

- Go on. - Great.

Piera: Uh, désolée.

Uh, Kate, can I have a minute, please?

Piera, can it not wait until after the presentation?

Piera: I am so sorry.

I would never interrupt if it wasn't urgent.

Won't you excuse me for just one moment.

Terribly sorry.

- Tout suite. - Yes.

Piera: I am so sorry.

I don't normally bother people like that, I promise you.

What is it? Is it Charlie?

So, he's running a pretty serious fever,

so I brought him to the hospital

and they gave him a blood test.

Kate, what if he's got the measles?

Did you know babies can die from the measles?

The measles? Did the doctor actually say that?

No, they're running the test right now.

So it can be something else, something less measle-y?

Less measle-y? Jesus, Kate.

That's a little bit too calm, even for you.

I'm sorry. No, it's just...

you know, on the spectrum of freaking out,

there's the Measles: holy shit.

And then there's: I don't know, hand, foot and mouth disease.

Fingers crossed for hand, foot and mouth disease.

No.

I assume you're still doing that presentation?

I'm in the middle of it, but...

I could jump on a plane, really.

Nathan: No. You have put too much time into this.

All there's to do is sit around and panic here anyways, so.

Well, look, call me if you hear anything at all.

Nathan: I will. I love you.

I love you.

Victoria: Shall we, uh... get back to the presentation?

Daniel: I'd like that.

Victoria: Okay.

Woman: I think we're on the pepperettes?

Group: Yes, pepperettes.

- Kate, Shall we continue? - Kate: Of course.

Um, where was I, uh...

The pig.

The pig, um...

So, uh, the pig...

I'm so sorry, I just found out my son is in the hospital

and he's so little actually, not even one...

Well, let's take a 5 minute repose, shall we?

Please help yourself to these lovely refreshments.

Kate, let's step outside, we'll sort this out right away.

Thank you. I'm so sorry.

So sorry.

Are you out of your damn mind?

What?

You never reveal negative truths to the client.

When they think Gaze, they should think about

all the money that we're gonna make them,

not about sick children.

I'm sorry, um...

How am I supposed to continue talking about cold cuts,

when I know my one year old is in the hospital?

You are a mother, what would you do?

Think about what is important to you

because this is a slippery slope.

Was I at every school play? No.

But this... this isn't a school play, okay...

Thank God for you, you've got a capable husband at home.

Anyone can be a mother, Kate.

Going to the hospital might ease your guilt,

but think about what you lose.

- What... I'm sorry. What - what exactly would I lose?

I will see you back in the room, Kate.

I am so sorry, but everything is fine.

Thank you for moving the inspection up.

Yeah, no problem. So, let's start on this floor.

Yes. Let's...

Um... did we get the wrong time?

No. You got the right time.

I wanted to meet the buyer in person

before they got in deep with this sinking ship.

Sorry, "sinking ship"?

I am here to provide some valuable insight.

Like this wall, for example:

supposedly a load-bearing wall, but it's weak.

My partner and I made love against it,
