The first 200 lines.
If BlueBell is where you're gonna have
your life, then this is where I'm gonna be... in BlueBell.
I don't have any interest in being part of an organization
that would ask me to remove gum from the sidewalk.
I move for an emergency recall vote,
removing you, Crickett.
I nominate AnnaBeth Nass to take your place.
I'm gonna nominate a co-leader, Crickett Watts.
I won't do it without her.
Don't you idiots know that I love you?!
Ooh!
A broken hip.
One of us needs to go down there
and take care of her. Bye-bye, baby.
I'll miss you.
Come on, Magnolia, your sister's finally coming home.
Hey, now, what do you think?
Should we add some stickers, maybe some glitter?
Yeah, glitter will make up for the fact that you forced
Lemon into a life as a mean old lady's slave.
There was no forcing. We flipped a coin, she lost.
It was fair! Well, then why
are you so worried about her coming back?
It's just, we talked every day for months,
and then suddenly, three weeks ago, total silence?!
And-and she told me she was coming home tonight in a text.
She didn't even use emojis.
Maybe she snapped.
Like that guy on Homeland who was stuck in the cell
all those years and wants to blow everyone up.
I haven't seen Homeland. Does he do it?
Ah! Don't tell me.
All I can say is you better be
planning one hell of a welcome back party.
A party?
You're not just giving her this crappy banner, are you?
Daddy?
Thanks.
A new dishwasher.
So what was it this time? Did your mom hear
that we had dinner with Winnie?
Brunch with Brando?
She caught me texting Vivian.
All right, now, okay, see, we-we are drowning
in ulterior moti appliances.
You got to tell your mom she won.
Tell her we love her more than the Wilkes
and she can go home now.
I know. It-It's just kind of flattering
to have her so focused on me.
Usually, she just pays attention to her clients.
Like when I was ten. She left me with a nanny for a month
while she dealt with Alec Baldwin's divorce.
Or that time she missed Christmas
'cause she was dealing with Britney's first meltdown?
I remember things.
Exactly. The only other time
I was the focus of this much attention
was when I ran for fifth grade treasurer.
She handled my campaign.
"Be in the know-y, vote for Zoe."
World's greatest publicist comes up with "know-y"?
Hey, she knew her audience. I won.
That's great, but this is not the fifth grade,
and she's not doing this for you, Zoe.
She's not spending time with you,
she's buying you things
to prove that she's better than your other family.
And it's-it's suffocating!
Do you know something else? She's also very
critical of me. "Get Lasik.
Try to develop a less nasally voice".
Please, you've got to ask her to leave.
And that, I've had 22 heart attacks since she got here.
I bought you a robot vacuum.
I bet no one else has done that.
Joel, really?
When's the last time you did cardio?
Remember that thing we were talking about earlier?
I'll handle it today.
Don Todd coming to you from the Sahara Desert.
Or as I like to call it,
"The world's third-biggest sand trap."
It's definitely the hottest.
Today we're gonna look... Oh, my God, that's hot!
Are you kidding me?!
Are you kidding me?! Good God!
Man, it has gotta be 120 degrees there.
Is there any chance Don Todd is bionic?
Maybe.
At 4:00 this morning, I saw him sink a putt
while riding a ATV over a cliff.
The episode before that was even better.
I didn't even know quicksand was real.
What are you guys doing watching Don Todd
in the middle of the night?
Can't sleep.
Why not?
Still sad about A.B.
Can't op thinking about Tansy.
Who'd have thunk, of the three of us,
I'd be the only one with a girlfriend?
We don't need girls.
We got Don Todd.
Well, as viable a life option
as your man-love for Don Todd is,
I might suggest using the time for a town fire drill.
We haven't had one in five months,
and it reflects poorly on me as safety captain.
We haven't had one because everybody knows the drill:
you walk outside.
Fine. The ancient Pompeiians didn't want
an eruption drill either. Look what happened to them.
...as you turn through the shot. Oh, baby! You see that?
Don Todd! Whoo!
Oh, hey, gorgeous, what are you doing here? Mwa!
Harley's with his dad tonight.
And so I was thinking I would just blow off bills and cleaning
if you want to hang out.
Oh, great. You know, Lemon's actually having
her welcome home party tonight.
Now I don't have to look for a date.
Lemon's dad and my uncle used to share the practice, you know?
And so Lemon and I were forced
to spend a lot of time together as kids.
And there was this one time when I put a bug in her cheese sandwich,
and she never forgave me.
Oh, you know, that is so weird,
'cause, actually, Harley, the other day, put a spider
in my French fries. And now I see it's just
running in the family.
I didn't know he did that. I tell you what.
Why don't you skip the party, go home and clean your house,
and I'll come by after,
and we can, you know, dirty it up again.
Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
I like that. Uh-huh.
Mmm....
Y'all are just sad.
Next, we need to talk about how to divide the prep
for the Sadie Hawkins Dance.
Oh, I've already booked a band, got a caterer,
and ordered 200 bales of hay.
I love having a heartbroken co-leader!
So, have you told
Lemon about your new role in the Belles?
Well...
Oh, my gosh! You haven't told her!
Only because I haven't been able to get her on the phone!
Or because you don't want to tell her you betrayed her!
Ooh, just who I'm looking for.
I'm having a little dinner party tonight to welcome Lemon home,
and I expect you, her best friend, to be there.
Oh, and Crickett,
as you were only her sometimes friend,
I will leave it to your discretion.
But I will see you tonight.
Of course! Fun!
I found the most amazing double oven
for your new house.
Six burners, built-in griddle...
Mom, you don't need to keep buying my love with high-end appliances.
I'm not buying your love.
It's just when you get together
with the Wilkes for game night
or whatever folksy thing you do together,
I want them to know that your mother cares.
Trust me, they do. I do.
Everyone knows that you care.
But don't you think it's time for you
to get back to doing what you do: working?
To be honest with you,
I have been thinking the exact same thing.
Seriously? That is such a relief.
I am taking you on as a client
and getting your practice back.
Wait, what?
I refuse to stand by and let Brick
take advantage of my only daughter.
I'm gonna help you win.
Like the fifth grade election?
Exactly.
All right, Lemon is gonna be here at 7:00, so everyone,
find a place to hide for the surprise.
Let's go! Let's go!
Oh.
Oh! Hey, AnnaBeth.
Hello, Lavon.
So I heard you, uh, you took over the Belles.
Mm-hmm. That's good.
Mm-hmm. Maybe one of us should...
I was here first.
Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
Hey, Brick, do you-do you think we might be able
to come out now?
'Cause I can only feel, like, four of my toes.
Yeah, I guess so.
This is just not like her.
She must be even angrier than I thought.
Of course she's angry, not just at you!
