Please, call me Edie.
Ma'am is for middle-aged women.

Like her.

You can call her ma'am
any time you want.

So are you two finding everything OK?

We didn't do
our realtor's walkthrough.

Everything is fine.

Oh, honey. Escrow's closed.

Now I can show you where
to put the buckets when it rains.

Edie, the house is fine.

But how lovely of you to stop by.

OK. Here is my card.

Call any time you want.

Bye.

People are very friendly
in this neighborhood.

Yes. Yes, they are.

Mike, hi, sweetie.
I hope the job's going well.

Um... So... I hope you're not mad

but I found Mrs. Huber's journal
in your truck

and I couldn't exactly not read it,
so I did,

and I know all about the blackmail,
so call me, we'll talk.

Love you. Bye.

I haven't heard back
and I was getting a little concerned.

The girls and I were talking and we
think maybe Paul Young killed Mrs. Huber

and if he did
maybe he killed your old girlfriend too

so we should really talk about this,
so call me. I love you. Bye.

I thought the whole point
of having a cell phone

was so someone could reach you.

How can we move forward
if you won't communicate with me?

Mike, I need you to call me back.
I mean it.

Love you. Bye.

I'm so sorry for that last phone call.

Um... let's just say
it was the worry talking.

- I just really need to talk to you...
- [phone bleps]

Can you hang on? I got another call.

- Hello.
- [Mike] Hey, it's me.

Oh, my God! Where have you been?

The reception's lousy up here
but I got your messages.

I'm really sorry for that last message.

- I was just uh...
- Stressed out?

Yes, let's call it stressed out.

Uh... So how did you get
Martha Huber's journal?

Oh, her sister, Mrs. Tillman,
gave it to me.

She was helping me with my search.

I really think we need
to give it to the police.

- [Starts engine]
- Um... yeah.

- Yeah, absolutely.
- Really?

When I get through with this job,

we'll make an appointment
with that detective. Copeland.

Great. That's great.

All right.
So I'II... see you in a few hours.

OK. Hurry, though. I have a feeling Paul
Young is in the middle of all of this.

Well, let's not rush to judgment.

- What are you doing here?
- I'm here to testify for you.

Can you take those off?
There's no way I'm dressing him.

Gabby, thank God you're doing this.

Beating up a second gay guy looks bad.

Yes, well, Carlos, in some circles,

beating people up at all
is frowned upon.

So why did you change your mind?

I'm about to be
the mother of your child,

which means a lot of responsibility
and little time for myself.

So if I'm gonna get you out of
this mess, you have to reciprocate.

OK.

When the baby cries
during the night,

you're going to get up,
without saying one word.

Doctor's appointments, you're driving.
I won't put a car seat in my Maserati.

And you will also be on bottle duty.

That means washing,
sterilizing and filling.

I'll have some semblance of a life
and maybe I won't hate you so much.

All right. There we go.

So we're good?

- See you in court.
- Hey, Gabby.

Aren't we breastfeeding?

Oh, honey, if you can swing that one,
more power to you.

Can I buy my own pizza?

You can, honey, if you can pay for it.

[Cheering]

That is 19, 19, 19-zip. Bring it.

Just stay here with Penny
for a second, OK?
