The hags emerge from Thanksgiving, bubbling over with conversations to be had. Kate enjoys the non-hierarchical airline while Jacqueline holds onto the menu at an airport lounge. A company covering your ass is a friend for life. The preferred form of satire? Absolute realism. An unlabeled jar, unmistakably daughter-made. A lifetime of preemptively bracing for every possible misinterpretation. A phone returned, sour tangs, unctuous rigatoni. Is a big meal pre-slumber the obstacle or the remedy?

It’s top of the mornin’ Poog as the hags encourage eavesdropping at dawn. Jacqueline’s honest answer elicits laughter from a school psychologist. An attic tutor rewards Kate with candy. Cutting out the stain as the only elegant solution. The impossibility of appointments, referrals kept in a clock tower. Blue-blockers secured thanks to a strong relationship with a local optometrist. Mom and Popism, doubling back for a bouquet, a mailman’s doctor’s orders. What is the obvious, brutal, and necessary choice?

It’s nearing the holidays as the hags absentmindedly podcast. Jacqueline champions the versatility of the couch while Kate confronts her fear of the quick-pickle. The will to leave, moved only by appointment. Healing the brain through the nose. Sunset in the eyes, pasta at room temp, and the elegant simplicity of one jean per hook. Illicitly floating a percussive massager across the masseter. Two friends, silently making a bed together, parachuting the sheets.
