Being Erica

Previously on "Being Erica":

And the lucky editor who will be leading us

through this sexual revolution...

Erica Strange.

Business is war

and as you made crystal clear at the festival of authors,

we are not friends.

You were looking out for numero uno ,

and Frank is either too naive

or in the early stages of Alzheimer's

not to see that.

Julianne, Erica,

the boardroom.

Now.

I'm really sorry.

I was awful.

Why?

You really hurt me.

Let's just leave it at that.

That was Dori from River Rock.

Your old boss, Frank Galvin, had a heart attack.

Look out, Katie Perry, that was amazing.

Oh you're just saying that.

Beauty, brains,

and one bodacious set of pipes.

Okay, so?

Who else wants to show some talent? Adam?

No, I'm contributing to your bottom line, okay?

Brent? What do you say?

Don't think so, dude.

Yeah... so, since when do you say "dude"?

Oh! Since Scott took over River Rock.

Oh, excuse me.

"The Rock" as it's now monikered.

Wait, wait, wait... He calls it "the Rock"?

Yup. Things are changing at the ol' double R.

Scott's rebranding--

It's all testosterone, all the time.

Wow, that must be a really hard adjustment.

Especially for you.

Why "especially" for me?

Well... you know, uh...

They kinda broke the mold when they made you, Brent.

You are very unique.

Why? Because I'm a red-blooded heterosexual

and a sassy bitch?

Exactly.

Well, Brent is a trailblazer.

But now that the Rock is changing,

I have to dial that blaze down.

'Scuse me.

Well, that concludes our fun-filled evening.

Oh. Uh...

Scratch that.

It seems we have one last guest.

Put your hands together for... Mr. Brent Kennedy!

Brent! You signed up!

You wanted to see my talent?

You got it, on one condition.

What's that?

Oh, Brent, what are you doing?

Take my hand and watch my hips.

'Cause these hips?

These hips don't lie.

We are, all of us,

in the words of Katy Perry,

original, unique,

and one-of-a-kind.

And yet, we spend our lives twisting ourselves into knots,

making ourselves smaller or larger to fit in.

At school, at work, at home,

we adapt; We change.

And the truth is,

that's not always a bad thing.

Or is it?

Amazing!

Ooh la la!

Being Erica 04x04 "Born This Way" Original Air Date: October 17, 2011.

I could lie here all morning.

Mmm... you have to get to a golf tournament.

Mmm. Yes...

Yes, I do.

Did you have fun last night?

- Yeah. - Yeah, Brent, he blew me away.

I mean, I had no idea that he could dance like that.

Yeah, he's very light on his feet.

Adam, Brent's not gay.

Oh, come on.

No, I'm serious.

I saw his, uh...

Heterosexuality with my own eyes.

Trust me, you don't wanna know.

Anyway, back to dancing.

Brent said that learning the Salsa

is actually quite easy,

and everyone knows

that couples should do new things together.

Yeah, the only kind of salsa I like

comes in a little bowl next to your Nachos.

I guess that I will just have to work

at convincing you...

Later.

Oh...

I feel like a bag of cotton candy.

Well, you look like you're part of the team. okay?

And that's how you have to act

if I'm gonna continue my winning streak.

You have to worry less about our clothes

and more about...

Oh my God, what is Brent wearing?

Wow. I don't know,

but it looks like he borrowed it from my dad.

- 'Sup, ladies? - Hi.

Who replaced fancy, fancy Brent

with... with Mike Weir?

Hey, BK, we're up.

- Hey. - Hey.

I'll watch out for this one.

She spanked us good last year.

Now it's our turn.

Yeah, let the spanking begin.

Payback is a bi-atch.

Come on, Julie-Jack.

You blame us for being on the defense?

Everybody wrote off 50/50 as a doomed vanity project,

but here you two are, stronger than ever.

Well, we are in it to win it, Scott,

and I'm not just talking golf.

Oh, I hear ya.

Credit where credit's deserved.

You've built an impressive business.

Thank you.

Might just be time to take the money and run.

Well, if some media mogul offered us a place in the Keys

and the right price...

So name it.

50/50's not for sale.

Oh. Suit yourselves.

Yeah!

Wow, you almost hit that one.

465 yard dogleg right.

Don't go in the garbage.

Yeah, I got into the garbage on this hole one day.

Double bogey. It's a world a hurt.

Look out, Scott,

you got the bogey man on your squad.

Gonna scare away your good scores.

Okay.

Nice.

All right, BK,

put it out there, buddy.

Don't over-think it.

Boom!

Oh my God, did you see that?

Dude!

Show me some love. Ha!

Nobody told me we're rolling with Tiger Woods today.

Sweet.

Nice hit.

Here you go. Keep the change.

Well...

Look at you.

The rest of us are still out on hell's half acre,

and here you are buying a round for the boys.

I am not worthy.

What're you doing?

I'm worshipping at the altar of my little chameleon.

You saw the tide turning,

and instead of going down with the ship,

you stole a rowboat

and you steered yourself towards the new world order.

So I took some golf lessons...

Golf lessons.

Followed by a shopping spree at...?

Sporting Life.

Mm. You know, when I heard that Scott hired Sebastian.

I thought to myself:

Brent's days are numbered at the Rock.

But after today?

You might just make it.

Might?

If you wanna survive at the Rock,

you're gonna have to continue being a little less Brent and--

A little more that.

You are not seriously taking advice

from Thomas Friedken?

He made some good points.

Oh, Brent, come on.

You don't even drink beer.

Ugh!

Don't some people put limes in these?
