I love you.
How do you know which one is the one?
It's simple. It's the kiss.
Cooper moved in upstairs, and now I'm starting
to feel things for Josh downstairs.
Oh, my damn.
Josh... it's you.
Gabi, before you fall for Josh's big "I love you,"
you should know that he thought he loved you three months ago.
And then when he changed his mind, convinced everyone to lie to you about it.
Is that true?
- Gabi, I can explain everything. - Oh, my God, it is true.
- Gabi, wait. - No, get the hell away from me.
Gabi, are you in here?
- Damn it. Oh, my God! - (Screams)
Don't scare me like that! I almost went lil' so-so on your ass.
Gabi, we need to talk. I sent you, like, a thousand texts.
Well, then you added insult to injury
because I don't have unlimited texting.
Gabi, I wanted to tell you about Josh the second that I found out.
But you seemed so happy with Cooper, I just... I didn't have the heart.
Oh, so you admit you have no heart.
Look, you have every right to be mad at me. Okay?
Even though my intentions were good,
it was stupid and I take full responsibility.
And maybe you should take some responsibility for how you've been acting.
What?
You should take some responsibility
for how you've been acting.
How I've been acting?
"I love Josh. No, I love Cooper.
"He's the one. No, he's the one.
I have two ones."
Okay, first of all, that sounds nothing like me.
- And second of all... - (Knock on door)
You need to get rid of whoever is at that door.
Okay. From now on, I got your back.
- Is she here? - Nope!
- I know she's here. - How?
I see her.
- Gabi, we need to talk. - No. No more talking, no more drama.
- What I need is for this night to end. - (Knock on door)
That is not the sound of ending!
- Gabi, we need to talk. - For three months,
none of you said a word to me. And now none of you can shut up!
You hear that, Cooper?
She doesn't want to talk to you. So buh-bye now.
Don't buh-bye me. Buh-bye you.
- Hey, back off. - You back off.
Hey! What is wrong with you two?
I'm sorry, that was out of line.
It was.
- So is this. - What the hell?
Josh, stop!
- Ow! Oh! - (Gasps)
Ow! Okay, that's it.
Oh my God, you guys, stop!
- Not the blender! - Oh, my God!
- (Screaming) - Ah!
- (Screaming) - Stop! Stop! Stop!
- (All shouting) - (Sofia) Not the votives!
Hey! Hey! Stop!
Oh, my God! Okay, you need to stop fighting, all right?
Because you're bad at it, and it's embarrassing!
I can't take this anymore. Okay?
I'm... I'm done. I'm done with both of you.
All right? You need to get out.
So I'll see you at work tomorrow?
Yes, but I will be late.
Wake up, Gabi, 'cause your best friend is taking you to breakfast at...
- Good morning! - Aah!
You seem peppy. Why?
Well, thanks to all the lies and betrayal, I couldn't sleep.
So I took one of those "What am I doing with my life" walks,
and I realized you were right.
I've been acting like some lovesick girl in a rom-com
instead of following my dreams.
I'm not Julia Roberts, I'm Julia Child.
And then it hit me. D'Arby.
The homeless guy with the really high-pitched voice?
No, no, no, that's Dabney.
I'm talking about Charles D'Arby, he's
one of the most famous chefs in San Francisco.
And every year, he has a contest to find an apprentice to work
at his Michelin-starred restaurant in Switzerland, and I applied!
"What about your job with Josh," you ask?
Well, I'm keeping it until I get the apprenticeship,
and I am getting it.
I already submitted three original recipes,
a personal statement,
and three fake references.
All I have left to do is make a video of my knife skills.
Man, I've had a lot of coffee. Whoo!
- Baby, I am so sorry. - Not necessary.
I am no longer angry with you for lying to me about Josh.
Because you were coerced by him into deceiving me.
And Elliot, I forgive you
because you didn't really betray me as a friend
since you never really liked me in the first place.
That is so true.
But the important thing is...
I'm getting married, and you're not invited.
Yay!
Did I hear Gabi?
Hey, Yolanda, um, would you mind giving us a minute?
Josh, no, I don't want to talk.
Yolanda, as my friend, I'm asking you to stay.
Oh, sure.
Yolanda, as your boss, I'm asking you to leave.
- Yep. - You owe me.
I pay you.
Sorry, Gabi, monies before honeys.
Gabi, we need to talk.
Yes, we do. What would you like for breakfast?
I would like a delicious plate of please sit down and listen to this.
- Josh! - Look, it's just a voice mail
I want you to hear. That's it.
Fine.
Last night after I called off my wedding,
you're the person that I wanted to see.
I even ran up your fire escape with roses.
Um, I don't know what I was gonna say, but I knew that I needed to see you
and then I saw Cooper and you, and look, if you're happy with Cooper,
just disregard this whole message.
But if you think you might, like, be happier with me,
call me back. This is Josh, by the way.
Oh, my God. Josh.
I know. Pretty intense.
Did you really leave me that message?
Sure did.
Huh. Can I ask you something?
- Anything. - How come I never got it?
Oh. Well, good question.
And, uh, how come my message is on your computer?
Another good question.
Hmm... is it possible
that you tricked me into giving you my phone,
so that you could delete the message before I got it
because you started dating someone new?
What? (Coughs)
That's a little bit of a reach.
Gabi, I... I saw you with Cooper. I didn't want to screw up your life.
Yeah, well, you were with Jilly,
so maybe you just didn't want to screw up your own life.
Now, what do you want for breakfast?
W-what I want is to hear you say we're gonna be together.
- No! - Why, you're staying with Cooper?
Oh, my God! No, Josh...
I can't take this. Okay? I quit.
- What? - I can't do this anymore.
Okay? I can't come to work and go through this with you every single day!
Gabi, you can't quit. What are you gonna do?
Well, for your information,
I have an apprenticeship with the very famous
Chef Charles D'Arby.
You do?
Well, it's... it's not so much an apprenticeship
as... as it is an audition for an apprenticeship.
- It is? - Well, it's... it's not so much
an audition as it is an application for an audition
that could lead to an apprenticeship.
So you have nothing?
Well, I could've lied and said I had something,
but I'm not you, Josh.
Goodbye.
Waffles. I should have said I wanted waffles for breakfast.
Gabi, what are you doing out here?
I'm waiting to hear if I got the audition.
And this is the only place where I get full bars.
- Oh! Hey, Dabney! - (Dabney) Hi!
So, you know, I was reading about that apprenticeship online.
And I didn't realize how hard it was to get an audition.
- Sofia, I'm going to get this. - Oh, no, of course. No.
I 1000% believe you will get this.
But, um, in case you don't, it's not the end of the world.
You know? You... you still have your job at Josh's.
- I quit Josh's. - What?
I know, it seems crazy.
But the thought of working for him after everything
we've been though seems just as crazy.
O-okay, are you sure? Because you have, like,
zero percent chance of getting that fancy apprenticeship.
Hey! You just said that you believed in me!
Oh, my God, we're gonna have to sell our hair to pay rent!
- (Phone rings) - (Both) It's ringing!
- It's them. - Put it on speaker.
Okay. Hello?
Miss Diamond, this is Chef D'Arby.
Chef D'Arby, this is Miss Diamond.
You have been chosen to audition for my apprenticeship.
We'll expect to see you tomorrow at 9:00 A.M. sharp.
Oh, my God. I... I will be there. Thank you so much!
- (Screams) - I knew you'd get it!
Congratulations!
Thanks, Dabney!
Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!
Okay, settle down. It's time to focus.
I am focused. Sofia, look at this place.
- That's Chef D'Arby. - Whoa!
