2 Broke Girls 1x7

1. Evening, ladies. Gals' night out?

2. Chasing guys, eating pie, having fun.

3. This table is sticky! Run a damp rag across it!

4. Would it kill you to clean a little?

5. What kinda place is this?

6. The kind that serves soup cold.

7. And what's with your crazy earrings?

8. What are you, some kinda gypsy?

9. Whoa! Hold up, ladies.

10. You don't get a bitch pass just 'cause you're old.

11. Yes, that's right. I said it.

12. You come in here with your gangster granny attitude,

13. think you can get away

14. with dumping all over the lowly gypsy waitress.

15. No way. At this diner, we don't discriminate due to age.

16. If you're gonna act like an ass,

17. I'm gonna treat you like an ass...

18. No matter how close that ass is riding to the floor.

19. Now, I'll wipe off the table we'll take it from the top.

20. Hi, I'm Max. Who wants tapioca?

21. That's more like it.

22. Save the disappointment for the grandkids.

23. Earl, I need another book of checks.

24. The last one fell between the refrigerator and the oven.

25. I'd reach for it, but that falls between

26. "I don't do that" and "Oh, hell no."

27. Look over there, Max. Men and women in suits.

28. This neighborhood is definitely on the rise.

29. I remember a time when a black man

30. couldn't get a cab around here.

31. And that time was Wednesday.

32. Max, I was just talking to the smart couples in booth two.

33. I know they're smart because they're the first people in here

34. who ever ordered the croque monsieur

35. as croque monsieur and not "crock monster."

36. They wanna meet the woman who made the cupcakes.

37. I told them you'd be right over.

38. - Go! They're so nice. - No, they're not nice.

39. They're trendy, blood-sucking locusts

40. who come into this neighborhood to pillage and destroy

41. everything I care about.

42. I felt the same way when the Hilton sisters

43. crashed my 21st birthday.

44. What?

45. You made these cupcakes?

46. Yeah, what's the problem? Spit it out, I've got a life.

47. We just wanted to tell you that your flavor palate is...

48. amazing.

49. I don't know who you are or where you came from—

50. Neither do I.

51. But these are fabulous.

52. Well, welcome to the neighborhood.

53. I knew I liked you guys.

54. So what did the trendy locusts want?

55. You are so judgmental, you know that?

56. They wanted to tell me the cupcakes are "fabulous."

57. Thank you.

58. Maybe now you'll finally start to get it

59. if someone besides me tells you how good they are.

60. I believe the word was "fabulous."

61. Pick up, Max.

62. Oleg, from now on, you may call me Countess Max

63. of the Fabulous Cupcakes.

64. And you may call me Sir Oleg

65. of the Amazing Party in My Pants.

66. Caroline, the happy, shiny people in suits

67. asked me to give you this note.

68. Oh, what a great idea!

69. They suggested we sell Max's cupcakes

70. at the cool new coffee place in their building.

71. But you already sell cupcakes here in my diner.

72. Han, we're building a cupcake business that will one day

73. get us out of here.

74. That's what we're trying to do with our lives.

75. But I thought we had something special.

76. Yes, but we're not exclusive.

77. The diner's cute, but I want more than this.

78. Oof.

79. First girlfriend all over again.

80. +

81. Hey, Johnny.

82. Max has the tables against the wall.

83. Oh, we're good in your section.

84. Caroline, I want you to meet my buddy Carlos.

85. Hi.

86. Well, I'm working the counter.

87. What's happenin'? Come on, dude.

88. You have a literature degree from NYU.

89. I didn't mean to say that, but when I get nervous,

90. my Rico Suave comes out.

91. It won't happen again.

92. And here's two menus.

93. What's happenin'?

94. Dude, I'm nervous.

95. Hey, guys, I'm in that section over there.

96. Oh, we're good in Caroline's area.

97. Well, if you like hot coffee in your pants area,

98. you're in the right place.

99. Actually, I like that.

100. Coming right at you.

101. Johnny's in your section.

102. Yeah, why?

103. He comes in here every night to see you.

104. He's your friends or... crush or whatever he is.

105. Shh! He's not a crush. He's a...

106. I don't know what he is, but whatever he is,

107. he's in your section.

108. - Max! - Ooh! What are you doing?

109. You're not supposed to be in here.

110. I know, I'm a bad boy.

111. Look, the reason I'm not sitting in your section

112. is because my buddy Carlos is crushing pretty hard on Caroline

113. and he asked me to do what I can to hook them up.

114. Oh. So now you're a bartender,

115. a street artist, and a pimp.

116. Ain't nuttin' wrong with me pimpin' some boy on the side.

117. Keeps me in spray paint and whatnot.

118. So?

119. From pimp to pimp...

120. Help me out with your girl.

121. My girl don't come cheap.

122. Is it hot in here?

123. Yes, and we're in a freezer.

124. Yes. My freezer.

125. I was, uh, just talking to Max.

126. Um, I'll see you out there.

127. So is this what you like in the men?

128. No. He's just a customer that went rogue.

129. He is weak and girlish.

130. A woman like you needs a real man.

131. You know what they say.

132. Once you go Ukraine, you will scream with sex pain.

133. That probably lost some of its sensual appeal

134. in the translation, but thanks for the offer, Oleg.

135. Cute, but I'm not interested. Besides, he's not my type.

136. Just say it.

137. You're not interested in him because he's Puerto Rican.

138. Where did you get this idea

139. that I would only date white guys?

140. For your information, I've dated all kinds of men.

141. I once had a Spaniard in Monte Carlo.

142. Isn't the title of an Abba song?

143. Are you sure about this? He's cute.

144. And trust me, you could use a little salsa in your white rice.

145. Max, I just lost every dollar I had.

146. The last thing on my mind right now is guys—

147. any type of guy.

148. Except this guy.

149. Hi, Chestnut.

150. I'm much more concerned with our business

151. and getting my head back above water.

152. Men will come sooner or later.

153. Well, according to my research most men come sooner.

154. Oh, I thought we should stop by

155. that new coffee place tomorrow and introduce ourselves

156. and your cupcakes.

157. I'm not gonna walk in there. I feel like I'm selling out.

158. Okay, let's reframe the phrase selling out

159. and make it sold out,

160. as in "Max, we sold out of the cupcakes"

161. and are now successful."

162. What's that you say?

163. I can now afford to buy the wax dental floss again?

164. Fine.

165. But I'm only doing it so you'll eventually get your mind

166. off the business and get laid.

167. Why do you think I need to get laid so badly?

168. If I'd just gone through all the tension and trauma

169. that just happened to you,

170. I'd be climbing telephone polls to take the edge off.

171. Trust me, sex is the last thing on my mind right now.

172. Oh, and speaking of reframing things,

173. I have a surprise.

174. I redecorated my room.

175. I scoped out some cheap fabric in bedding places

176. down on Houston Street.

177. What do you think?

178. I think you've made a vagina.

179. What?

180. Sister, you may think that sex is the last thing

181. on your mind, but you turned your bed into a vagina.

182. Do you think my vagina has curtains?

183. I don't know how long it's been.

184. I'm tired. I'm going to bed.

185. Okay, but I still have to make the cupcakes

186. to bring by that place tomorrow.

187. I don't wanna keep you awake

188. so why don't you sleep in my bed tonight

189. and I'll pass out on your vagina?

190. Okay, but you better buy me breakfast in the morning.

191. I love this place. Looks like Paris in the '20s.

192. More like poseurs in their 20s.

193. Man, they've really cleaned this place up.

194. You've been here before?

195. Yeah, it used to be a liquor store

196. owned by this old Irish guy

197. who had freckles on his penis.

198. Sometimes he'd corner you and flash it,

199. but then he'd always comp you a free lotto ticket.

200. Okay, well, let's try and keep

201. that sort of charming nostalgia

202. out of our sales pitch.

203. Oh, that's the owner.

204. I scoped it out before you got here.

205. And remember, I'll do the talking.

206. Why don't I get to talk?

207. Freckled penis.

208. And besides, I have more experience.

209. All those who pitched business models to Warren Buffett

210. as a member of the Phillips Exeter Entrepreneurs Club

211. raise their hands. Holla!

212. Well, if you care enough to raise your arms about it,

213. fine. You talk. I won't say anything.

214. Hi, what can I get for you?

215. Hi, I'm Caroline and this is my business partner Max.

216. - And you are? - Semhar.

217. - Oh, jeez. - Such a pretty name.

218. It means "light of the tiger" in Sanskrit.

219. Oh, jeez.

220. It's my yoga name.

221. Help me, God.

222. Well, Semhar, we just opened

223. a local neighborhood cupcake company.

224. Our card.

225. We're introducing our exciting product

226. to local boulangeries.

227. Please try a sample. Max.

228. Would you like coconut-coffee, chocolate-curry,

229. or blueberry-lemon zest?

230. My absolute fave is the coconut-coffee.

231. Let's start with that, shall we?

232. Thank you, but no thank you.

233. Well, can I ask you why?

234. They're not pretty enough.

235. Excuse me?

236. They're not pretty enough.

237. Perhaps if you tried one,

238. you'd see how amazing our flavor palate is.

239. Hold off, Flava Flav.

240. What do you mean, they're not pretty enough?

241. They have a charming homemade look,

242. but my customer would prefer

243. a more upscale, prettier product.

244. Just FYI, some upscale residents

245. in this very upscale building

246. where your upscale store actually is located

247. recently told us they were fabulous.

248. I understand.

249. But they're not pretty enough.

250. Listen, battlefield earth.

251. This is Williamsburg, Brooklyn,

252. and no amount of exposed brick and paint

253. can change the fact that, right where you're standing,

254. I've seen Tommy O'Hanlon's wing-wang

255. more times than I care to remember.

256. And I must say, it was way less offensive than your attitude.

257. And you can shove that up your upscale.

258. Let's go.

259. - Namaste. - Namaste.

260. +

261. What's with the empty hands, Max?

262. No cupcakes tonight?

263. No, they're bugging me. I decided to take the night off.

264. Be careful with decisions like that.

265. In 1987, I took a night off from earth, wind, and fire

266. and the next day, they earth, wind, and fired my ass.

267. Hi. Sorry I'm late.

268. Mid-afternoon nap in your vagina?

269. I wish! No.

270. I went to a cheap bakery supply store in Greenpoint

271. and got us some supplies.

272. Here.

273. It's the basic cake decorating kit.

274. And best of all I found us a fun,

275. reasonable two-session cupcake decorating class

276. at a bakery.

277. We can learn how to make pretty roses.

278. No way.

279. The cupcakes don't need to be pretty.

280. They compensate by having a great sense of humor.

281. Pretty cupcakes is just another option for our business.

282. People want pretty, we do pretty.

283. Or people want homemade, we do—

284. - Wait, where is our homemade? - I didn't make any tonight.

285. You didn't make any?

286. What, you get one piece of constructive criticism

287. and you stop making them?

288. Max, it's business.

289. And maybe Semhar has a point about making them pretty.

290. First of all, what does she know about pretty?

291. The woman has dreadlocks.

292. Her head looks like the stuff

293. you empty out of a vacuum cleaner bag.

294. Not pretty.

295. Forget her.

296. What's happening with you?

297. What's your problem with pretty?

298. Don't wave your divas live hand at me.

299. I just think society's way too concerned

300. with other people's idea of what's pretty.

301. You don't think you can do it.

302. That's what this is about.

303. This isn't about society.

304. You're afraid you can't do pretty.

305. Look, I don't do pretty

306. the way you don't do Puerto Ricans.

307. What are you talking about?

308. I'll do Puerto Ricans.

309. All right.

310. Then go do one and leave me alone.

311. Max, it's a skill. That's all.

312. It's not shameful to not know how to do something.

313. Didn't you have piano lessons growing up?

314. Seriously?

315. Ice skating?

316. Closest I've come to blades on ice

317. was when a pregnant girl pulled a knife on me

318. at a hockey game.

319. Look, you and I have a business,

320. and this is a skill we need.

321. We're going to that class

322. and we are gonna master how to make pretty roses.

323. And I know how much you hate anything trendy,

324. so I found us a family-owned Italian bakery in Brooklyn.

325. Italian's good.

326. Maybe they'll know how to dump the body

327. after I kill you.

328. First of all, welcome to Spice and Sugar.

329. We did a little twist on the traditional sugar and spice

330. putting spice first because...

331. We're Italian.

332. And we always got the spice up front

333. and a little in the rear.

334. Holla!

335. Now are you embarrassed you ever said holla?

336. My name is Stephanie, and this is my cousin Serena,

337. and this bakery has been in our family for years

338. and then we took it over and made it...

339. Hot.

340. All right, let's go around and introduce ourselves

341. and tell us why you came tonight.

342. Let's start with the cute guys.

343. Always!

344. I'm Steve, I thought this would be

345. a fun idea for my bachelor party.

346. I'm getting married to Michael... right there.

347. So cute. God bless!

348. And I'm Michael.

349. - I'm Michael as well. - Michael.

350. Oh... So many Michaels.

351. - And you are? - Michael.

352. No, I'm Max.

353. Oh, she's funny. So cute, God bless!

354. And I'm Caroline. I'm Max's partner.

355. - Oh, so many gays tonight. - I know.

356. No, I'm her business partner.

357. We actually have our own cupcake business over in Williamsburg,

358. and I must say, we're doing very well.

359. Max is the baker and I'm the business head

360. and we're here tonight to increase our skill level

361. and take our business up to a level that's...

362. Hot as well.

363. If you're gonna talk that much,

364. no one will have time to learn anything.

365. I know, right?

366. So, uh, where's your shop?

367. Well, right now, we're just working out of our apartment.

368. - So no shop. - Oh, that's sweet.

369. - Cute. - Yeah, good luck, God bless.

370. Can you say jealous?

371. All right, let's start simple

372. with a pretty little icing flower.

373. Everybody pick up your piping bags,

374. and with a straight-edge tip—

375. But you guys can use your gay-edge tip.

376. All right, everybody watch Stephanie.

377. You're gonna take the nail head

378. and you're gonna make a little "U"

379. so that you get little petals.

380. And we'll do this five times.

381. And then, you have a pretty little five-petal flower.

382. - Simple. - So cute. How fun!

383. No, no. You gotta start by making a "U".

384. I did. That's a "U".

385. - Serena, is that a "U"? - Not a "U".

386. Fine, I'll start over.

387. That was a "U".

388. And what, just because I don't have a quote-unquote shop

389. I don't know a "U"?

390. What's with the attitude?

391. All right, let's leave.

392. Next time the gays giggle, we'll just slide out.

393. No, we're here to learn.

394. That looks good.

395. I suck. I'm starting over.

396. Max, why'd you do that? It was good.

397. Not good enough.

398. You two not done yet?

399. You have to master the little flower,

400. or when we move on to roses you'll be screwed.

401. - Right, cuz? - Oh, totally screwed.

402. Screwed and not in the good way.

403. Do you think we can convince them

404. that slapping each other's face is the new high five?

405. Steve, oh, my God. That rose is gorgeous.

406. Good for you.

407. All right, one more minute and we'll display our roses.

408. Psst. Steve. Little help.

409. I choke at timed tests. I got like a 40 on my SATs.

410. Damn it, Steve!

411. Look at this place.

412. There's no way these girls

413. could have this much cupcake success in this economy.

414. I mean, the overhead on this building alone—

415. What are you saying?

416. Not saying mob money,

417. just saying maybe we'd have a shop too

418. - if we had mob money. - Shh.

419. Keep it down.

420. You wanna wake up tomorrow with Chestnut's head

421. in your vagina bed?

422. Okay, time's up. Let's see what you got.

423. What is that? There's like nothing there.

424. That's not a rose.

425. - It's minimalist. - Whatev.

426. No, not "whatev". It's brilliant.

427. And I would know because, when I was in Tokyo,

428. I had a private Japanese flower arranging class

429. with the head of the Ikebana institute.

430. And he said I had a gift.

431. In his words, "Caroline..."

432. Whatev. Okay, what about your friend there?

433. I kinda ran out of time.

434. You had 20 minutes.

435. I thought she said you were the baker.

436. No, you need to be able to whip these out in like 20 seconds

437. if you wanna be successful in your little bakery.

438. "Um, I'd like a cupcake." "That'll be 12 hours."

439. - Right? - Right.

440. And they have to be prettier than that.

441. Well, maybe you'll do better tomorrow.

442. Remember. Your homework assignment

443. is to bring in a cupcake with a pretty rose on it.

444. Right.

445. Like we're gonna come back here

446. and spend time with these Robert de Nir-hos.

447. Ugh! That one stinks too. Damn it!

448. Max, forget it.

449. It's 3:00 A.M. Go to bed.

450. Don't. Don't say anything to me.

451. I am so mad at you right now.

452. - What did I do? - Everything.

453. I used to love making cupcakes.

454. It was the one thing I could zone out and do

455. without thinking.

456. And now all I'm doing is thinking.

457. Thinking that I stink at making cupcakes.

458. Well, stop it.

459. Who cares what they think? They're bitchy baking bullies.

460. We don't have to go back there.

461. Oh, and then what?

462. I'm gonna think my cupcakes weren't good enough

463. for the rest of my life?

464. You said we need the skill, then we need the skill.

465. I'm a lot of things, but I'm not a quitter.

466. I'm gonna make a stupid, pretty cupcake if it kills me.

467. Or you.

468. And you are going back there with me.

469. And we're gonna shove our pretty cupcake

470. right up Snooki and her cousin's asses.

471. Now, shut up, don't talk to me,

472. and go back in your vagina.

473. Sorry you had to see that, Chestnut.

474. +

475. Oh, not very pretty.

476. But at least you tried, Michael.

477. Just one question.

478. Are you sure that you're gay?

479. Oh, okay, Caroline. Let's see your pretty rose.

480. I didn't do one.

481. Society is way too concerned with other people's idea

482. of what's pretty.

483. Whatevs.

484. Okay, what about your baker there?

485. She bail too?

486. No, here it is.

487. - Mm-hmm. - Max, that's so pretty.

488. I'm so proud of you.

489. Good work, God bless. Good for you.

490. How long did it take you?

491. About three hours and 40 minutes.

492. But I did it!

493. I just wanted to prove to you and myself

494. I can make something pretty.

495. And now that I have—

496. Mm!

497. That cupcake wasn't me. I don't do pretty.

498. But I did make each of you a cupcake that I think says

499. what I feel about this whole cupcake class.

500. This one says "Bite me".

501. This one says "Screw U".

502. You see that "U"? That's a "U".

503. Holla!

504. Well, good luck with that.

505. People don't want cupcakes that insult them.

506. Oh, my God, Max. That's our thing.

507. I was wrong. You were right.

508. We don't need to make pretty cupcakes.

509. Everybody does pretty.

510. We have to do what you do best.

511. Insult people.

512. Yeah, who's gonna buy that?

513. We will. For our shower.

514. And really let us bitches have it!
