- Previously, on "Good Girls."
- He left me, and he took my kids.
What do you want? - I want you done.
I want my family safe.
- How's it going with the sister?
- I'm out of the friend zone. - Already?
- Do you, like, live here now?
Because you're here, like, a lot.
I'm a D-bag, so I know when I see one.
- Well, I stole from my last job.
- What did you steal? - Money. Lots of it.
- We are so much more alike that you could ever know.
- Feds, they opened up an IA deal or whatever.
- I literally have no idea what you're saying.
- Internal Affairs, okay? They investigate dirty cops.
- Did you remove a pen cap from the evidence locker?
- I failed. - Like, inconclusive?
- Capital F, failed.
- Did he do what they said he did?
- Yes. - Then he should stay in jail.
- It's over. They got me. I'm out on leave.
- I'm done. - Is that right?
- No more cash. No more pills. It's over.
- Which part? - All of it.
Bring the children home, okay?
It's cost me everything at this point.
But my...
rock bottom or whatever, um...
was when I lost my family.
- The thing is, you have no idea how far you've fallen
until you get some distance.
I've had cops in my kitchen.
I've...
Taken my kids to a crack house.
I've lied. I've cheated. I've stolen.
I've had a gun to my head so many times
that it doesn't even scare me anymore.
A full clip adds a pound.
It's like...
why do I know that?
I shouldn't know that.
♪ Oh, Lord, I've lost it now
- I just have to stop.
I want to be normal.
And I can't lose my kids again.
My name is Beth.
And I am an addict.
all: Hi, Beth.
- I'm going to need one of you here and one of you here,
and I'll hold down the middle over here with the goodies.
Who's on masks?
- Uh, how about a big leaf?
- Or a fluffy turkey? - Ooh, Indian headdress.
- Not cool, - Why not?
- It's cultural appropriation.
both: Oh. - Mm-hmm.
- Why don't we avoid any land mines
and just keep this fall themed?
- Oh, thank God you're back. - Right?
- Where's our homegirl been?
- Life got a little crazy for a second.
- All I got to say is Carol filled in for you.
- Oh, do not. - She didn't want to do themes.
- For the parties? - It was nuts.
- Oh, speaking of which.
Okay, so we have acorn thumbprints,
and see, the Hershey kiss is the little acorn.
- Oh, that's so cute.
- And we got turkey cake pops.
We've got little squirrely sweet treats,
and I cannot with this pretzel tail.
- Stop! - Beth!
- Can you even?
And then, we've got
Gobble Gobble Maple Crumble.
- Oh, wait. - Uh--
- What? - Um, those look like
walnuts on top. - So?
- Oh, walnuts are nuts. - Well, they're not peanuts.
- Nut family. - Well, who in
our class is allergic?
- Uh, Cooper doesn't like them. - Right.
- Well, that's not an allergy. And you know what else?
All of this...
filled with gluten. - Oh, my God.
- I mean, where are the gluten issues in Africa?
Or Brazil? Or anywhere except for here?
Right? - Oh, you're bad.
- What happened to you?
- I like it.
- Let's live a little. - Okay!
- Annie Marks, please report to produce.
- We can never sell this lettuce.
- Hey, question.
- What do you think is worse? The sex or the pesticides?
- Um, does our insurance cover puberty blockers?
I think that ship has sailed. - Has it?
- Yeah, honey, you're a woman now.
- Mm, it's for my kid.
It's kind of, like the next step, and he's really stoked.
- Uh-huh. - So, you know.
- Look, well, I'll check, but we are Fine and Frugal.
- Mm-hmm. - Emphasis on the "frugal."
- Mm, right. - Yeah.
- But you know, I could pick up extra shifts
or I could--you know, I'd mop the butcher floor
or unclog toilets, or-- you know, whatever.
I'm just saying, something to think about.
- Mm-hmm.
- Well, come on, I'm still down.
- Yeah, blood, bathrooms, your child's trans journey--
it's, uh-- - It's a lot of imagery.
- Yeah.
I can--I can look at the schedule.
- Thanks, boss. - Okay?
Uh--
Hey, uh...
what about your extracurriculars?
- Oh. Those are over.
- Huh. Why?
- It's--it's, like, a whole thing with my sister.
- That sucks.
How bad do you need the money?
Kale.
- Hmm.
- Guilty? - That's what he wants.
- Why?
- I'm--I'm just another file in his stack, Ruby.
I mean, you should see this guy.
He'd rather go play racquetball or golf.
- The court-appointed ones can't afford golf.
- Well, that's what it is.
- Then we'll get you a real lawyer.
- You know how much that costs?
- Stan, you're not pleading guilty.
- Babe, do you want to eat or keep the lights on?
Because that's where we are this month.
Okay, I got no paycheck coming in.
I can't even get my old job back at the mall
because they think I'm a fel--
That better not be a phone.
Hey, you got your ears on, Journey Scout?
- Excuse you, miss.
Your father is speaking to you.
- Hey.
No phones during homework, baby.
- And no pop after dinner. - Oh, my bad.
I didn't think we still followed rules around here.
- Oh, you're gonna have your hands full.
- What are you talking about?
- When I go away.
- It's cheating. - It's fine.
- It's an affair. - Oh, come on.
- What do you call it?
- It's maybe an emotional affair,
which is, like, barely even a thing.
- Hoda says that's worse. - Oh.
You know, we're doing Beth a favor.
- How's that?
- You don't take an alcoholic to a bar.
- How's this even going to work?
- We just keep the trains running.
- Without the dealership?
- Well, I'm kicking around some ideas.
- You are? - I am.
- Well, as long as it doesn't involve
shoving anything up our-- - Sara needs her badges, right?
- Oh, hell, no! - Okay, will you just chill?
- I'm not going to let you shove things up my child's--
- Bus! - What?
- Customs is never going to search
a bus full of Journey Scouts.
I mean, they're practically nuns.
- Jesus.
- Oh, I'm sorry, what was your idea again?
Because I'm open. - I don't know.
- Mm, shocking.
- That was Beth's thing.
- Or...
- Or?
- Or we locate a travelling circus
and we find the elephants or whatever
the largest mammals are we can find
and we cram the pills up one of their--
- Hey, ladies.
So how are we going to do this?
- So it's about a dead girl?
- No, she gets in an accident, and when she wakes up,
she has no memory and she has to sort of start her life over.
- So it's a medical mystery thing?
- More like she has to sort of figure out who she wants to be.
- Do you actually see the accident?
Because I am not good with blood.
- Mm, probably can't see anything
because it's a book.
- Oh, thank you, professor.
- Hey, is it on Netflix?
- Hey, you guys wash up. We're going to eat.
- So you're totally okay with all this?
- What?
- You know...actual book club?
- I mean...
what about you guys?
- Well, kind of miss the money. - Not going to lie.
- Yeah, how's Stan's lawyer? - Super. Real shark.
- Well, maybe when the dealership
gets back on its feet, I could pitch in and--
- Hey, we'll get by.
- How do you think he's going to do it?
Without us? - Oh, I don't know.
There's always some idiot
willing to do something stupid for money.
- So, do you guys want to come to book club or not?
- Ooh, gee, we would but...
we kind of have, like, a thing. - Oh.
- Otherwise, I would totally love
to pretend to have read it.
- All right, you guys. Come and get it.
- You want your service badge or not?
- Why do we have to go to Canada?
- Because that's where the nursing home is.
- Can't we visit one here?
- Old people are lonelier there.
- Because of socialized medicine?
- Yeah. - Wait, that makes no sense.
- Okay, you know what? Bed time.
Daddy will be in for prayers. - No thanks.
- To Daddy or prayers?
- Both. - Excuse you.
- We're just going to act like we're good people now?
- We are good people.
- He stole, you lied,
and I still can't borrow the neighbor's Internet.
- Sara Louise Hill-- - It makes about as much sense
as going to Canada to get my service badge.

- And I'm thankful for waffles and Missy, my doll.
And that my mom doesn't go to work as much
so she can play with me.
- These are the moments you just can't miss, right?
- Right.
- Oh, I didn't even go there. - Oh, God.
But you know what? She is so great.
- Sorry to interrupt. - Oh, my God.
Jane was the most adorable thing I've ever seen.
- Yeah, she's hilarious.
What happened to all the stuff I made?
The cupcakes and the crumble?
- Oh, um... - Oh.
- Right. - Beth, we just got
a little nervous about the nut thing.
- Yeah, and not to mention all that gluten.
- Yeah, so we had Trish run out to Kroger
just to be safe. - They were gorgeous, though.
And we had them all wrapped up so you can take them home.
- So, um, I was thinking.
How about a mom night in early January?
- Well, actually, February might be better
because of the winter carnival. - That work for you, Beth?
Beth?
- We're good? - Locked and loaded.
- Uh, hey, guys.
Here, pass these out for me, would you?
Thank you.
All right, I think I'm going to pee again.
I really like the toilets here. They're so high up.
- What's your secret?
- Sorry?
- When mine was their age,
she was already smoking dope and stealing cars.
- Well, give her a minute.
- Mm-mm, I don't think so. Not that one.
She taught me Snapchat.
- I am so sorry. - She's patient.
- Well, she just came out like that.
- That's not how it works, honey.
I had eight.
- No wonder you're in a chair.
Well, whatever you're doing, it's working.
Bye.
- Passports.
- Here you go.

You know, just keeping up international relations.
- They just earned their service badge
at Mallard Pond Senior Center.
- Would you like some water?
- Thanks for your service, girls.
- See? Piece of cake.
- I took it all out.
- Back on the bus in ten. - Stick with your buddies.
That goes for you, too, Karen.
- I panicked, okay? - No.
- I couldn't do it. - No, no, no, no, no!
- We're supposed to be making them better people, not this.
- What did you do with them? - In the garbage at the place.
- Oh, my God, you left our payday in a trash can?
- We could have gotten caught. - But we didn't.
- With a bunch of drugs in front of Sara.
- It was the perfect plan.
You know if Beth had suggested this,
you would have been all in.
- Like I'm some kind of yes-man?
- "Hey, Ruby, want to rob a grocery store?"
"Sure, Beth." "Hey, Ruby.
Want to drink some gasoline?" "Yeah, sounds yum, Beth.
Pour it in my mouth." - Okay, you know what--
- But of course, when I come up with a sound solution--
- Oh, you mean this or up an elephant ass?
- Yes, I put two viable options on the table,
and all you had to do was choose one.
- You know what? You're right.
You're not Beth. You never will be.
You know what you are? - Please.
- You're a child. You do whatever you want
whenever you want. - I take risks, Ruby.
- Without thinking about anyone else but yourself.
- Just because I didn't choose some safe-ass,
boring-ass life like my sister--
- You know why she did that? Because she had to.
She didn't have anyone to clean up after her like you do.
- That's not true. - She has been
mopping up your messes since the day I met you.
- I'm really glad that I can be
such a convenient excuse for everyone.
- What does that even mean?
- Well, now when Stan goes to jail,
you'll have someone else to blame.
