Cook the food.
Fold the laundry.
Cook the food! Scrub the floors!
Fold the laundry!
This is what a marriage is.
Where is my drink?!
Do you see my cock?
Where's my tie?!
Can you see my cock?!
Yeah, thanks. Yeah.
This is what a marriage is.
This is what a marriage is!
This is why they hate us.
"The Voice" said it was provocative.
- Certainly provoked laughter. - Hey, you don't think
our marriage is a prison, do you?
Because I also "cook the food!"
Isn't marriage by definition prison?
See what I'm up against?
This is what a marriage is.
It's gotta be good research for your book, though.
- How's it coming? - He's almost done.
- Well... - What? You're almost done?
I still need a good title.
"Men's Lib" feels derivative.
I was thinking "Wonder Man," like "Wonder Woman,"
but also, I wonder how to be a man.
I'm not good with titles. What about you?
You have one for your book?
Yes. 200 pages of shit.
I highly doubt that.
I promised I would have it finished by my 40th birthday.
What do you wanna do to celebrate?
We should all go on a trip together.
You mean like Saint Martin?
I love that house we went to, right?
Or maybe south of France.
Or maybe we could just treat it like any other Tuesday.
You gotta let us do something. I mean, it's a big milestone.
If you wanna do something for me,
send me five more states.
_
You hold this?
Just like you're working.
Much better.
So distinguished.
You look like Rock Hudson.
I guess that makes you Doris Day, honey.
Que será, será.
- One last thing. - It's all right.
- No one will notice. - No, it's too worn for the picture.
Let me ask you something else. Leaders of the women's movement
claim your wife's arguments against the ERA
are old-fashioned.
Would you characterize your wife as such?
Not at all. I would classify my wife
as an exceptional woman who has been able to manage
a career at home and her public life.
How are the kids?
Roger's enjoying Princeton.
And Phyl might apply there next year.
And John?
He's exploring different paths.
You know young people these days.
But Bruce is studying for the LSATs.
Following in his father's footsteps.
If anything, her public life has helped shed light
on my own causes, namely communism and abortion.
I think what's missing from this picture
is you, Mrs. Schlafly.
No, no, no. This is a profile of Fred.
- Yes, but... - Besides, I wasn't on
the list of, poses.
I'm in no condition to be photographed.
With regard to abortion, their efforts
at zero population growth actually help the communists...

I'm so sorry I'm late.
My talk ran long, and I couldn't get a taxi.
- Nice to meet you in person. - It's fine.
I hope you started without me.
- He wanted to wait. - I reached out to Ms. Steinem
because when I arrived at Justice,
I discovered there is a massive women's problem
in this country.
Wait, have you heard about Vietnam?
I would like to start a women's task force,
but I wanna work with movement leaders so we're not at cross purposes.
Well, off the top of my head,
what about hiring a woman to run it?
Well, why don't you come on board to advise me?
Um, would you actually take my advice?
You know, not all Nixon appointees
are corrupt and chauvinistic.
We've been targeting swing states in the Midwest.
- Ohio was a big win. - I'm from Ohio.
- Me, too. Toledo. - Dayton.
What I wouldn't give for a bottle of Vernors right now.
Schweppes doesn't taste the same.
Next, we're making a big push for Illinois.
If we win, it could be a real turning point.
Phyllis Schlafly's home state.
Boy, she has polarized the hell out of the fight.
You gotta give it to her. That's clever.
It is.
She's a very clever puppet for special interests.
Special interests aren't baking all those pies.
They are paying for the flour.
What are you doing to neutralize her?
We wrote an exposé on her in "Ms." Nothing stuck.
Preaching to the choir.
Why don't you debate her?
On television.
The last thing I want to do is use my profile
to increase her audience.
Besides, you can't reason with women like Phyllis.
They've internalized the patriarchy.
Well, perhaps the answer to equality lies in the courts.
Rulings can be overturned.
Writing an explicit prohibition against sex discrimination
into the Constitution makes it just as unacceptable
as discriminating on the basis of race.
Well, maybe you should debate her, Mrs. Ginsberg.
No. I don't like the limelight.
I challenge Phyllis Schlafly to debate the issues raised
by the Equal Rights Amendment.
She's made some outrageous claims.
We should time the debate to take place
right before the vote in Springfield.
Feels good to go on the offense.
Since she has made it her personal crusade
to keep us all from attaining our full rights
as United States citizens, I think it's important
to demonstrate publicly and legally
that she doesn't know what the hell she's talking about.
- How's that? - Perfect.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
You'll drop the "hell."
Gloria!
Jules. I took some photos for "Ms." last year.
Of course. So nice to see you again.
- This is my friend Bren... - Brenda, right?
You were at the Christmas party.
Are you down here doing a story
about the impeachment proceedings?
We had a meeting at the DOJ.
I'm actually a lawyer for the ACLU.
So you were crashing the "Ms." Christmas party.
No, no, no, I'm one of the founders of "Ms.,"
so technically it was legitimate.
Definitely a lawyer.
- How long are you two in town? - Just for the night.
Have you been to the Dubliner? Just opened.
Great happy hour.
Gloria's in charge of happy hours.
Stan asked if we could continue our conversation
over dinner tonight.
Well, I guess we have dinner plans.
I think he just meant the two of us, but I'll double-check.
We should get going.
Next time.
My brain doesn't work this way.
It's just a puzzle, and puzzles are games,
and games are fun.
Now that is the transitive property at work.
Well, you could take the LSAT.
A man with solid prospects... Very attractive to a girl.
Face it, Mother.
None of your children wanna go to law school.
Well, a law degree is versatile.
No, it's not just for, being a lawyer.
You could, go into politics or business.
Here. Let's take a look at this one.
"Now the number of calories in a gram of refined cane sugar
is the same as in an equal amount..."
I can read myself.
I don't know.
"B"? "C"?
Don't just say letters. Consider it.
I would say..."E."
Since the premise does not account for the fact that sugar
is not the only ingredient that contains calories.
I'm right.
It is "E."
You're home early.
Linda got an advanced copy of the morning paper.
_
Well...
Look, they quote you at length.
I think you look very handsome in the photo.
Not bad.
So how does it feel to be Phyllis Schlafly's lawyer husband?
If you keep studying,
you can be Phyllis Schlafly's lawyer son.
- When's dinner? - It's at 6.
It's always at 6.
Well, when I was at Harvard...
Never heard a good story
that begins with "When I was at Harvard..."
I had the professor that was the inspiration
for "The Paper Chase," and he announced
he would only call on women one day a year... Ladies' Day.
- Ladies' Day. - And he would only discuss
cases involving widows and brides.
He didn't think we could handle sparring in a Socratic fashion
without bursting into tears.
Did you ever burst into tears?
Tears of rage. I paid the same tuition.
Well, why didn't you transfer somewhere else?
Harvard's the best law school.
Have you ever been photographed?
Once for "Glamour" a few years back.
That makes sense.
You're beautiful.
No, it was for a profile about the movement.
It was just about me and my husband.
That's the third time tonight you've said "husband."
Why did you change your mind about meeting me out?
Well, I felt bad. You're friends with Gloria,
and I was very rude.
Where are we headed?
The Watergate.
Should we break in?
- You have to wait. - I thought I was!
No, I lost my... bracelet.
I'll get it.
- Got it! - Shh! What if we get caught?
I think it's been established that security
in this building is not great.
- Right. - Okay.
I can do it.
I think.
Got it.
Wanna see who can hold their breath the longest?
No.
I wanna kiss you.
How's that?
That better?
Gosh, your calves have gotten so strong.
Well, I ran 12 miles today.
12?
I don't know what to do about this challenge.
No, it... it's insulting.
Now I'm the leader of the opposition,
and they should send their girl wonder
- to debate me, not to... - I told you.
Ignore it.
I've never turned down an invitation to...
To debate on the ERA,
and they're gonna say I'm scared.
Scared? I've never even heard of Brenda Fasteau. She's nobody.
Well, and no, she helped write the amicus brief
for Frontiero v. Richardson.
She's a lawyer.
Now what if this is some kind of trap,
that, they're trying to humiliate me
that I don't have a law degree?
What was the biggest sticking point
between the North and South Vietnamese during the Paris peace talks?
The shape of the negotiating table.
So if you don't like the terms of the debate,
change the shape of the table.
So you respond
that since the ERA is going to,
destroy the institution of marriage,
the debate ought to be between couples.
And that way you can bring your lawyer husband with you
and protect you from her Supreme Court credentials.
Well, you'd... you'd have to travel with me.
Can you swing that with work?
It's my law firm. I can do whatever I like.
Thank you, Daddy.
May I help you with something, ma'am?
I'm here to take the LSAT.
The registration's under Bruce Schlafly,
but I called, and they said I could take it instead.
I'm his mother.
- You enjoyed yourself. - Stop.
That was incredible.
Wow.
You're so much more open and...
you let me know everything you wanted.
Did something happen when you were in D. C.?
No.
You didn't sleep with someone?
I would never sleep with another man. You know that.
I would never do that.
You would never sleep with another... man?
It was a very spontaneous thing.
Gloria had dinner plans, and I had met this photographer
earlier in the day with her named Jules.
- Jules. - And I had way too many drinks,
and... and then...
I wasn't not gonna tell you.
I just... haven't. I just didn't tell you yet.
It's okay.
- It is? - Yes.
Yeah, it's okay. Come here.
Look...
If it was another man...
that would be something else entirely, but...
a woman? I mean...
that's practically a rite of passage for a radical feminist.
I mean, I've always...
wanted to experience sex once with a woman.
Well, now you have.
- Well, that's what I thought. - We win Missouri...
Well, we've talked about going to Illinois next week.
Sorry, sorry, sorry. Sorry I'm late.
I have just received an interesting message
from a producer on "The Tomorrow Show."
Tom Snyder has invited Brenda and her husband
to appear on the show in a couples debate
with the Schlaflys.
What?
A couples debate with me and Marc?
And Fred and Phyllis, yes.
Apparently she suggested the idea.
Of course she did, because he's the one
feeding her the lines. It's a trap.
Maybe she was hoping you weren't married
so she could worm her way out of debating you.
Yeah, she likes to paint us all as man-hating lesbians.
Well, the joke's on her.
You go on TV and look like Barbie's Dreamhouse
for all of flyover land to see.
Yes, but if she and Fred beat Marc and Brenda,
you know, that gives Phyllis a boost in Illinois,
and we have to get Illinois to ratify this year.
No, we made a challenge.
She either has to accept it or not.
I'm not in charge of TV show bookings.
The whole point of this was to go on the offensive,
and she's got us playing defense again.
Now we're trying to prove we're as white, straight, and married
as Phyllis and Mr. Phyllis Schlafly?
What we should do is send a lesbian couple.
- Very funny. - Wow.
- I think that's a good idea. - Look, don't start.
I'm going straight from this meeting
and meeting with the National Gay Task Force.
But she happens to have a husband
who happens to be a magnificent hunk of a man,
and I'm not going to apologize
that the image of Phyllis Schlafly
eating her words gives me a warm feeling
down in my kishkes.
Why aren't you more excited? Why isn't she more excited?
It's fine. We'll do the show.
- Good. - Mistake.
Great. So that's settled.
Next on our agenda,
- we have gotten a great response... - Everything okay?
of our Win With Women in '74 campaign.
- Yeah. - We are making a push
to support women candidates.
You don't have to do it if you don't want to.
Of course I wanna do the show.
I'll do anything to win Illinois for us, and so will Marc.
Besides, it'll be great publicity for his book.
Fantastic.

The Left Coast is calling me.
- To Margaret. - Whoo!
- To Margaret. - Thank you.

because they are the perfect heterosexual couple.
Just made you come in the bathroom three times.
- There's no windows here. - What do you expect, Jules?

"Eve came from Adam's rib.
It's time to abort women's lib"?
I say we just stick with "Jam and sham."
It's just that "abort" is more emotional.
STOP ERA. Rosemary speaking.
Big mistake putting Rosemary in charge of the bullhorn.
Well, I tried to put you in charge.
I can't speak in front of hundreds of people.
How did it go with Bruce's LSATs, by the way?
Very well.
- Wonderful. - He wants to go to med school.
Yeah, I'll be right back.
That would be great.
Can I help you?
Is there where a John Schlafly lives?
He's not at home. May I help you?
I found his wallet.
Well, I'll make sure he gets it. Thank you.
He should be more careful with his stuff.
Not everyone's as thoughtful as me.
You know what? You deserve a reward
for your sense of... civic duty.
Well, that should be enough, right?
Are you going to Trader Vic's or the Chateau Marmont?
Maybe you'll see some movie stars.
Mom? Are you even listening?
No, no, it's a... it's a work trip.
Right.
So?
How was the LSAT?
What?
He didn't take it.
What do you mean, you didn't take it?
I had an event at my fraternity.
He just didn't feel he was ready.
You know how competitive he is.
- He can take it next year. - Well, you should be ashamed.
For wasting your mother's time and my money.
I'll pay you back.
Well, actually, the money didn't go to waste.
They let me take it instead.
- What? - You took Bruce's test?
Why would you do that?
It was a lark. You know me.
I enjoy multiple choice and logic
and those sorts of things.
What a pointless thing to do.
As I said, it was a lark.
Well, if you didn't want my money to go to waste,
you should've convinced this one to go instead.
I don't wanna go into law.
Well, you wanna do menial work for the rest of your life?
- What's wrong with you? - There's nothing wrong with him.
Why do you keep protecting him?
Fred... this is our time as a family...
to relax and enjoy our dinner together.
Bless us, Lord, these thy gifts
which we are about to receive
from thy bounty through Christ, our Lord.
What are you working on?
An introduction to Marc's book.
Probably the best shot I've got at getting published
before I turn 40.
You already published a book.
"The Beach Book" is not a book.
You know... you're too hard on yourself.
The dust jackets were made out of sun reflectors.
Can I tell you something?
You're also writing a book?
Marc told me about Brenda... experimenting.
What?
While you two were in D. C., some photographer?
She didn't tell me.
Sounded like it wasn't a big deal.
That man is enlightened,
'cause it sure as hell wouldn't fly with me.
Maybe we should rethink planning a vacation with them.
You will find any excuse to not celebrate.
What's to celebrate? Nothing is going well.
Hey. If I learned anything from my divorce,
it's to focus on the things you can control
and change that.
Marlo called.
She wants to donate the proceeds
from "Free To Be... You and Me" to Ms. Foundation.
It got me thinking.
I could set up grants to focus on survival issues,
working class women, battered wives,
focus on marginalized groups.
Maybe you could help me set that up.
That is a great idea.
They're taping a "Free To Be... You and Me"
TV special next week.
Do you think Kerrie and Kyle would enjoy
coming to the studio with me?
They would love it.
And maybe afterward,
we could get a slice of cake for my birthday.
They like cake, right?
Kids generally like cake. Yes.
If we have time, we should hike up to
the Griffith Park Observatory.
It's where they filmed "Rebel Without a Cause."
I think I need to go lie down.
Okay, I'm just gonna stop by the concierge and get some maps.
- Thank you. - Thanks.
My God. It's them.
I hate Los Angeles.
We probably won't move until the summer,
but I'd like to take a few months to finish my book.
I didn't know you were writing a book.
On black feminism.
Is there anything I can do to entice you to stay?
"Ms." won't be the same without your voice.
I think we'll be happier in Oakland.
You're not happy here?
No, it's just... the schools are better in Oakland.
You probably have to get going.
Look who's here.
Hi, Ms. Gloria.
Hey.
Is something wrong?
Margaret just quit.
I'm sorry.
She's moving to Oakland.
You know, better schools there for her daughter.
Is that what she told you?
You excited to see how a television show gets made?
Yeah. We've been listening to the record all week.
Tell Ms. Gloria what your favorite song is.
"It's Alright to Cry."
It's one of my favorite songs, too.
Hey.
What's going on? You okay?
I think I'm pregnant.
We're gonna have a baby?
This is incredible. A baby.
My goodness.
Okay, so look,
we can put the crib in our room for the first few months,
but then we gotta start looking for a 2-bedroom.
And hey, hey, I know it's scary,
but it's not like we haven't talked about it.
It's just it's the timing of it.
Are we even ready?
Hey, but it's never the right time, right?
That's what Ruth and Marty always say.
- Yeah, but... - You're worried about your career?
I don't know!
I don't know what I think because you keep talking.
Okay. Okay.
Brenda, I'm listening.
I slept with Jules again.
When?
She lives in the city.
And we've been seeing each other.
I thought you were just looking to experiment. Um...
So are you leaving me for her?
No.
Look, can we talk about this later?
I forgot. We have to go on television
and pretend to be the perfect married couple.
We don't have to do the show.
We have to go. Everyone's counting on us.
We can smile. We can fake it.
That's apparently what you've been doing anyway.
Did either of you
cross paths with Paul Freund while you were at Harvard?
We had him for Constitutional Law.
He was my classmate.
And does he know your wife has been citing his article
on the ERA in her testimony before state legislatures?
Mis-citing.
We're not in touch.
I see.
Do you have children?
- No. - Not yet, no. No.
You know when I miss Cambridge the most?
- In the fall. - That foliage.
Made studying for torts less bleak.
Yeah.
First, let me introduce Brenda and Marc Fasteau...
Brenda Feigen Fasteau is 30 years of age,
and she is a graduate of the Harvard Law School,
the full-time director of
the American Civil Liberties Union's women's rights project
and a strong advocate of the Equal Rights Amendment.
Her husband is Marc Feigen Fasteau.
He is 31, also a graduate of the Harvard Law School.
He is a lawyer, and is now putting together a book
about male sexual stereotyping.
On the other side of the issue are Phyllis and Fred Schlafly.
Mrs. Schlafly, a housewife and mother of six,
is the head of STOP ERA, the national organization
which opposes the Equal Rights Amendment.
Now Mr. Schlafly is a lawyer,
and he strongly supports his wife's efforts.
Now I am told that Mrs. Schlafly ran for the Congress twice
- in the state of Illinois... - That's right.
and lost both times.
She thanked all the people who voted for her,
and her husband thanked all the people who did not vote for her.
- Right, Marc, yeah. - I'm Marc.
Yes, Tom. Right.
So the ERA has been ratified by 33 states so far.
It will have to be ratified by 38 states...
And that's two that have rescinded.
- Nebraska and Tennessee are... - But states really aren't able
to rescind, so the first thing is to acknowledge the truth,
which is that women are discriminated against.
Well, I don't acknowledge that at all.
Well, then I'll just lay out my version of the truth.
Before we get into that, I... I'd... I would like to give
Mrs. Schlafly and Mr. Schlafly an opportunity
to enumerate what they think this amendment means,
and then we'll come over to this side,
and you can say what you and Marc think it means.
- Is that okay? - I'll say what I think,
and Marc will say what he thinks.
Okay, everyone will say what they think.
All right? Fine.
- Here we go. Mr. Schlafly. - Well, under the ERA,
the poor girls would have to support the family 50%.
But... but wouldn't we be getting something for that, Fred?
- First, Tom... - We may well perhaps.
Let me just say, the ERA would, impose
a doctrinaire equality on men and women
and take away from women some of the most important rights
and privileges they now have by law,
and that's why we think it's a fraud.
Can you give us an example of what you mean?
Well, for example, under our current system,
in a case of a breakup of marriage,
the mother gets the children.
Now, who wants to trade that in
for a so-called equality whereby each, parent gets one child?
The ERA does not say that in the case of divorce,
- each parent gets one child. - Yes, it does.
It says you have to interpret things absolutely equally.
Well, what if she has one child, would it be cut in half?
Well, you... you can joke all you want.
I mean, the courts, would decide, as they did,
with a recent Washington, D. C., case,
where three children were given to the father,
and the mother had to pay child support.
- What was the name of the case? - It's crazy to say that was
an advance for women, but the...
The larger issue is that the ERA
erodes the institution of marriage...
- Cite the case. - The case?
Well, I'd have to look it up, but the point is...
You don't know the name of the case?
Well, there's so many cases.
We don't have time to cite them all.
- Just cite the one case. - We don't have time
- to cite them all. - Just name this one case.
The point is, if everything must be equal,
then the logical extension of the ERA
is that we would have a gender-neutral society...
- or homosexuals will have... - You have scared the women
of America into believing something that is not based
in reality, but when you argue an actual point
in the real world in a court of law,
you need to cite a case to support your argument,
so cite the case.
Well, I think it was Foley vs. Langhamor Lancaster.
Something like that.
- No, there is no such case. - Yes, there is.
- But you see... - Did you just make up a case?
I'm not a lawyer. No.
I'm the wife of a lawyer, and I really
do think that's more fun...
Well, listen, I doubt we're gonna get to agree
on this at all, so we should just move on.
The fact is there is no Foley vs. Langham case.
Also a fact is that you are not really a housewife.
You are a full-time lobbyist working to defeat the ERA
so that businessmen can continue to make millions of dollars...
- No, no, no, no. - ... discriminating against women
when they work, when they buy insurance,
- and when they give birth. - No, well, I don't work
- for anyone. - Great, so you're a patsy.
Well, maybe you should stick
to baking and leave interpreting the law to the lawyers.
Okay. You both have some opinionated wives,
but seriously, let's bring the fellas in on this
and have them get a word in.
Marc, you are in what you call an equal marriage.
So let me ask you this.
Who wears the pants in your family?
Well, we both do.
Brenda looks much better in them than I do.
But, um, our marriage was... was really forged
in the crucible of feminism, so we don't have assigned roles.
And, Fred, how about you?
Well, your wife has a very strong and...
And dominant kind of style.
She wear the pants in your family?
No, she doesn't.
I'm obviously physically larger than she is.
Yeah, well, he chins himself 25 times every morning.
And, she's very, submissive.
Sub-submissive?
Wait. Phyllis Schlafly submissive?
I just... I... Well, I can't even...
Is that right?
Well, um, Fred's the boss of the family, and, um...
All right. Well, speaking of submissive,
we've got some bills to pay here, so...
- And what was that all about? - I don't like your tone.
You hung me out to dry!
You made up a case, and I couldn't defend you
without looking foolish.
Well, you could've jumped in earlier.
- If you had stopped talking... - No, no, no.
You just sat there. Why do you think...
- What? - I brought you.
That LSAT wasn't a lark, was it?
You're applying to law school.
- Is that such a crazy idea? - Yes! Absolutely crazy.
No, you don't think I could get in.
It's not a matter of whether you could get in.
I have raised six children. They're almost all grown...
You are too old.
Who applies to law school at 50?
You can't stop me from going.
Well, who's going to pay for it?
I have let you run around this country with your cause.
It's our cause, Fred. It's our cause.
I... am the lawyer in the family.
Don't worry. I'm not looking to practice estate law!
You made a sacred promise to me
when we were married, or have you forgotten?
I've not forgotten.
But you can't blame me if you didn't do more
with your law degree to save our country.
Where are you going?
I don't need to explain myself to you.
God, that was tremendous.
You were pretty amazing.
Thank you. Thank you. We make a great team.
Are you in love with her?
I don't even know if I like her.
I'm sorry I lied to you.
I'm sorry. I'm...
I'm confused, and...
What?
I really love being with a woman.
More than me?
I could never love anyone more than you.
What do we do?
What if you didn't have to be this or that?
I mean, what if there's another way?
Isn't it the whole point of living a radical life?
Until you bring a child into it.
Says who?
We've always played by our own rules.
We can choose to build our family however we want.
I think it's,
Foley vs. Langham or Lancaster,
- something like that. - No, there is no such case.
Yes, there is, but you see...
- Did you just make up a case? - I'm not a lawyer, no.
I'm the wife of a lawyer, and I really do think
- that's more fun... - Listen, I doubt we're
gonna get to agree on this at all...
Just look at her face.
She's dying inside.
It would help if your friend cracked a smile. She's winning.
You're not gonna add your name to my FBI file?
I never traveled to Cuba as part of the Venceremos Brigade,
by the way.
When did you go through it?
When I sent you out to get coffee for me.
Right.
You should be more careful.
I would like to go to Cuba one day.
I'll take you.
This is a one-time thing.
Okay.
Sure.
You're still gonna be my advisor, though, right?
I don't have time to consult
with some man's women's task force.
Right. Sure.
Sounds beautiful.
How was California?
Your father's cross with me...
for taking the LSAT.
Doesn't want me to go to law school.
It's the one thing left that's all his.
Did I ever tell you the story about how I quit smoking?
I didn't even know you smoked.
Yes, I was a pack a day,
and your father hated the habit.
He thought it wasn't, ladylike.
Well, he was right.
And, he gave me a car as a wedding present,
and of course, I didn't have a gift for him,
so... I decided to give up smoking.
And the day of our wedding, I smoked my last cigarette.
Now was it hard to quit cold turkey?
Very.
And do I have to force myself
to resist the seduction of cigarettes?
Every single day.
But the mind is stronger than the body.
You just have to exercise willpower.
Now did you, get your wallet?
Yes.
I saw it, thank you.
Must have, fallen out on the floor in the mudroom.
I found it, and I left it on your dresser.
You have to be more careful, John.
I will.
I had such trouble conceiving after you were born.
I thought maybe you might be my only one.
Now I'll need some help with my jingles.
For my rally.
Girls are tired of the old ones?
What rhymes with "alimony"?
Good to see you, Phyllis.
You're in here?
I know.
Hard to believe.
Senior partner.
Fred's just down the hall. I can take you if you'd like.
I can find it, thank you.
- Mazel Tov. - Hey.
- Honey. - Thank you.
Thank you.
Congratulations.
Yay.
We wanted to ask you something important.
Will you please be the godparents?
- We'd be honored. - All right.
All right! Come on!
As long as it doesn't involve changing any diapers.
No.
- Yes. - Big year.
It's a big year, birthing a book and a baby.
Well, the baby was considerably less work
and infinitely more fun to create.
Did Frank tell you?
He came up with the perfect title for the book...
"The Male Machine."
Well... can't come soon enough.
We should send it as a Christmas gift
to every chauvinist legislator in Illinois
that voted against us.
We'll get it done next year.
We should start talking about raising money now.
- Dessert's ready. - Let me help you.
♪ Can't let go ♪
Here. I got you something.
My, my old one works just fine.
I stopped by the office to give it to you,
but you... you weren't there.
Thank you.
So if it's okay, I might have this one.
I did very well on the LSATs,
and I have decided to apply to Wash U.
Now it's close enough
that I'll be home every night for dinner.
You really don't need to work this hard.
Lots of people don't want the ERA to go through.
They won't let you fail.
one young man on our team to maybe win the championship...
We're so excited to start a family.
That sounds boring to you,
but... I think maybe I'm more conventional than I thought.
I've always wanted to be a mother.
You're going to be a wonderful mother.
I was thinking about hiring Jules to do a photo shoot
for our next cover.
I wanted to check with you first if that was okay.
Of course. Of course.
Why didn't you tell me?
It was just a phase. It's not who I am.
It's okay if it is.
What are you... are you gonna call a press conference,
sit beside me and declare, "We are all lesbians"?
Where's Kate Millett now?
We should coordinate our fundraising trips
with Marc's book stops.
I might take a step back from the public speaking and...
organizing.
I wanna get back into my writing,
finish my book.
Hey, it's starting.
