时长:00:28:07 / 首播:2017-03-26
Taking the advice of his colleague, Elijah decides to attend a workshop audition for a stage remake of the 1992 sports comedy White Men Can't Jump, while Hannah is waiting to hear back from Paul-Louis. On his way out, Elijah is surprised by the arrival of his former boyfriend, Dill Harcourt - who is trying to hide from some paparazzi due to a recent scandal involving him trying to adopt on the black market. Hannah agrees to keep an eye on him while Elijah leaves. At the audition, Elijah initially tries to bail, but then meets a young woman named Athena, who persuades him to stay, and the two bond. Elijah's audition initially goes well, although it soon emerges he has no control over the basketball he has been given. Meanwhile, upon learning of Hannah's dilemma with her baby, Dill firmly tells her that not having a father figure when he grew up was the reason he couldn't bring himself to love anybody. She then takes Paul-Louis' call, and finally tells him of his baby. Although he is genuinely surprised, and offers some support, he admits he is not ready to be a father. After the call, Hannah breaks into tears, and an also-crying Dill comforts her. Elijah returns from the audition to find the two bonding over television and pizza, and after initially standing up to Dill, Elijah invites him to his room for sex. The next morning, he receives a phone call from the producers, offering him a part - on the condition he is kept well away from the ball. Concurrently, Marnie is broke, and has just received an eviction notice. Unable to get support from her mother, other than a place to sleep, she goes to pawn some of her jewellery, only to discover that all of the seemingly precious jewellery that her parents gave her was fake. When this revelation causes her to throw a narcissism-laced tantrum, the appraiser rolls his eyes at her, and tells her that she is merely trying to blame other people for her predicament; the only liar in her life is herself. Deeply affected by this encounter, and realising that she needs to take responsibility for her life, Marnie leaves a message on Desi's voicemail expressing regret at the way she treated him throughout their marriage.
