Could you...

[baby babbles]

- Yeah, for her.

- Thanks.

Oh, you could just

put that down right there.

Thank you, sweetheart.

[giggles]

Hotel help!

You have to show them who's boss.

[giggles]

Oh, I'm sorry, you work here.

That was rude.

No, it's... Doesn't matter. I don't care.

[Carolyn] My husband

doesn't know I'm here.

He wouldn't let me go to Cancun,

he said it was too dangerous.

Too dangerous! Well, I don't care.

I have his credit card,

and if it wasn't for her...

But now I have you.

Yeah, I don't know much

about kids, so...

No, you're perfect! You're perfect!

Couldn't bring the nanny,

she tells him everything

because he cuts the check.

She's a goddamn tattletale,

that's what she is.

[Carolyn] To be honest,

I'm not usually alone with her.

God, it's tiring!

You can keep a secret, can't you?

I'm meeting this man tonight.

My husband can never know.

This man just looks at me, and I get wet.

I just have to see him.

[baby babbles]

Is that okay?

Don't worry about her.

I need you right now.

[Tallulah] It's a balcony.

Well, she has to learn. There's bars.

I'd sue the f*** out of them.

Shouldn't she be wearing a diaper

or something?

Oh God, no, no. We pee in the toilet.

She's one years old.

Do you think my legs are too white

to wear a skirt?

No.

You think I'm fat, don't you?

No. I mean, not at all.

Once you have a baby,

your body isn't as tight as it used to be.

Not everybody can stay

as tiny and skinny as you.

Oh, I never had a kid, so...

Well, f***ing don't, okay?

Because, let me tell you,

once you do, that is it!

My tits are ruined! Ruined!

Like a couple of dried up tea bags.

He doesn't even look at me anymore,

my husband.

[Carolyn] I used to be hot! I really was!

When I first met my husband,

he couldn't keep his eyes off my ass.

Great!

[chuckles] Liar!

I love you! Could you...

zip me up?

Sweetie, I need makeup on my face.

Could you do it?

I need to just rest.

Yeah, I don't really know

how to do that kind of stuff.

Oh, for f***'s sake!

There, there's your tip.

[Carolyn] Has anyone ever

tipped you a hundred bucks before?

Uh, no!

Now put some f***ing makeup on my face.

- This thing?

- Mm-hmm.

I need you.

[baby cooing]

[Tallulah] Oh sh*t! Uh...

Maybe that'll calm her down. [laughing]

Now put some shoes on my feet.

Oh, uh, she... she had an accident.

No! Oh God, don't say that!

[heavy sigh] This is too much for me!

What is wrong with her?

She's... she's little!

- She knows better!

- I mean, it's just pee.

No, she's supposed to go on the potty.

I have the book.

My neighbor gave me the training book.

She knows what to do,

she just doesn't want to do it!
