Broad City (2014–…): Season 5, Episode 5 - Artsy Fartsy - full transcript

Abbi is invited to a fancy art event; Ilana and Lincoln have a one-year relationship check-in.

This bookshop rules. I get it...

- Paper, not screens.
- Yeah.

Oof, I can't stop thinking about
this prix-fixe pasta tasting

- at Dobby tonight.
- Wait a second.

You're going to Dobby tonight?

- Girl, yah.
- Dude, you didn't tell me that.

I saw that chef on "Chef's
Table." She's incredible.

I love a restaurant run by women

'cause they don't rape
or molest their employees,

- and the food just tastes better.
- Yeah.

Also, I told them already
that you don't eat beef.



Why?

So there's no beef on your plate?

Ilana, I'm not coming

to your one-year
anniversary dinner tonight.

Don't be a bitch. Who's gonna mediate?

Right, it's the
anniversary/renegotiation

relationship-check-in.

Dude, this is big. Do you have
all your deal points prepared?

You Sade-Baderinwa believe I do!

[CHUCKLES] Dope.

[GASPS] There they are.

♪♪

That's good placement.

Wow.



Gor-gous!

You took the lemons of being
fired from Anthropologie

and turned them into gorgeous, artistic,

bad-bitch-gettin'-shit-done lemonade.

Yeah, I mean, thank God
those cards are in here.

I'm exhausted from working
on my art all day

and catering every night. I needed this.

Abbi Abrams.

Donna? Oh, my God. I haven't
seen you since college, dude.

- Hi!
- Hi! [SIGHS]

- Wait. Is this...
- So good to see you!

- You, too.
- Smelly Pussy Donna?

Ilana.

I am s... I am so sorry.

I'm truly sorry. That is so rude.

I am... I am so sorry.

Clearly that got relayed from me.

This is my best friend, Ilana.

And she didn't mean
to say that out loud.

It's okay. I officially own
that nickname,

because I beat my smelly pussy.

It only took probiotics
and six years of therapy,

but I'm officially free
of malodorous pudenda.

- That's amazing.
- Smelly pussy.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, yeah.

I've actually used my horrible
story to inspire other women.

I just gave a TAD Talk.

You gave a TED Talk about it?

No, uh, TADTalk.

Oh. Cool.

What are you up to?
Are you still doing your art?

I really loved her art.
She was so talented.

Thanks so much.
I... Yeah, I mean, I'm trying.

She's not trying. She is succeeding.

She's selling her cards
in the store right now!

Okay, these are literally so cute.

I just had the best idea.

I'm a coordinator at MoMA.

- [GASPS]
- Cool? That's amazing.

And we're having
an incredible party tonight.

Would you guys please come
as my close personal guests?

[SIGHS] I have this dinner
I have to go to.

That sucks we can't go.

Ohh.

Well, I mean...

Icould still go, like, alone.

Whoa.

I guess you could.

Okay, so you're gonna go. Great.
Yeah, I've put you on the list,

and they are excited to meet you.

Oh, my gosh.[BIKE BELL DINGS]

[SIGHS] My Pediphile is here.

- Huh?
- What, now?

Oh. Pediphile is an app

for people who are obsessed
with pedicabs.

I became obsessed with them in college

when I needed to air out
my vagina, because...

the smelly pussy thing.

Also, it's so convenient to get around.

You guys should think
about getting the app.

I am a co-founder. Full-disclosure.

- All right, I'll see you tonight, Donna.
- Don't forget to dress sexy!

I got to see this bitch
get into a pedicab.

- Wow.
- Wow.

See you tonight!

Smelly Pussy Donna.

I wouldn't notair my pussy out
in a pedicab.

Yeah. Me, neither.

and one... one ♪

Dude, tonight is so cool.

A party at MoMA? Come on!

Yeah, I mean, I have to cancel
my catering shift,

but MoMA's, like, so worth it.

So worth it.

I'm a little nervous about going alone.

No, you'll have Smelly Pussy Donna...

- Donna. You'll have Donna.
- I mean, I could also ask,

like, another one of my friends.

Yeah!

Like, um...

I could ask the...

No, I...

You know what? It's cool to go alone.

It iscool, 'cause then
I don't have to explain

all the art-world ins and outs
to someone. Like, it's a lot.

You know what? I'm gonna call Kevin.

Perfect. I'm gonna pet this dog.

- Okay. Great.
- Hi!

Hello! Oh, hi!

[PHONE LINE RINGING]

Hey! Kevin.

- Who is this?
- It's Abbi?

So, listen, this kind of, like,
really-big-deal thing

came up tonight, art-wise,
and I was wondering

if maybe someone could cover my shift?

Fuck!

Tonight is already gonna
be really intense,

and it's too late to find
someone to cover you.

But I guess we'll just have
to make do without you.

Yes! Okay. Thank you so much, Kevin.

- I owe you one.
- You go for it, girl.

[CLICK]Okay.

Ooh, hot and heavy over here,
huh? Does Lincoln know?

Well, I did have a polyamory
clause in my deal tonight,

but now I have to add
a bestiality clause.

[CHUCKLES]

- I thought it was funny.
- Thank you.

Happy anniversary/
renegotiation/check-in.

Yaas!

All right. All right.

Look at that wrapping. [LAUGHS]

That's for you. That's part of it.

- What is this?
- It is your very own

handmade Experience Coupon Book.

Okay.

- "Handjob."
- Whoop!

"Dry"?

I prefer wet.

Picnic in the park.

Blowjob, wet.

Zoo day.

Anal!

This is awesome. This is a quantified,

organized list
of the stuff we already do.

- I love it. Thank you.
- Yay!

All right. My turn.

Okay. Okay.

Mm...

[SIGHS] Phew.

I mean phew.

I farted, and it went, like,
up my dress and up my nose,

and then it dissipated...

Okay. "Jewess"? Yes!

I saw them, and I thought of you.

Why?

Just kidding.

Unabashed confidence.

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]

[GASPS] Helicopter!

Abbi!

[GASPS] Kevin!

Thank God you came after all.

I was actually going to fire you
for bailing tonight,

but here you are,
in your bizarrely gorgeous

catering ware.

[CHUCKLES] Here I am!

We've got asparagus spears
that still need to be trayed up,

and then you can grab a tray of
riblets and start passing them.

Did you bring your beret?

Oh, I-I forgot the beret.

It's okay. Just meet me in the garden.

I brought an extra one!

This is our first pasta tasting,
the bucatini tartufo.

Mushrooms were milled in Hudson,

and they were foraged just this morning.

Oh. Nice.

- Gorgeous.
- One down.

11 to go. Let's enjoy this food

before we get down to business.

I agree. See, we are already
wonderful at negotiating.

Yeah.

- Oh.
- Oh, my God.

- God damn.
- I'm, like, literally, like,

getting, like, buttery wet like the...

- Yeah.
- Like the noodles.

I would raw-dog this pasta

[ALL CHATTER EXCITEDLY]

Ab!

- Abbi! Hi!
- Dude, what's up?

I'm so sorry.

Hey!

Mwah! Mwah!

Thanks so much for coming.

It means so much to me.

No, thank you for inviting me.

- Of course.
- This is awesome.

Ugh. God.

What?

Jeffrey Sean Michael Thomas is here.

He has nudes of me. Sick stuff.

Let's go play nice.

O-Okay.

Hello!

Ding dong!

Let me get in here.

- Let me get in.
- And so I said,

"What is this, Sotheby's?"

[LAUGHTER]

Oh, my God! Can I borrow your phone?

- Excuse me.
- Oh!

Garlic rosemary lamb riblet
with mint compote?

Jesus.

This is a spiritual experience.

All right, Lincoln.

Hmm?

Shall we?

All right.

♪♪

As we look ahead at the upcoming year,

I would like to discuss the deal
points regarding sexual exploration,

starting with the roller-coaster idea.

That's a no for me, dawg.

Roller coasters are already scary enough

without me having my dick out.

Plus, there's pictures,

and they project the pictures
at the end.

Nobody should see that.

I just think it would be thrilling.

I can give you Ferris wheel.

Deal! I like that better, actually.

Up-and-down-vibes.

I'd like to bring up the item
of rom-coms.

Don't know where we're
gonna get on this, Lincoln.

I want to watch four rom-coms a year.

I object because they are
offensive to women.

That is subjective.

I gotta push back,
and I'll give you two.

Three. No laughing at them.

Only laughing withthem.

Give you two laughing at them,

and one laughing with them.

- Deal.
- Whew!

Can I approach the bench?

Yes, you can.

♪♪

Aah!

Hi-i-i-i!

- Hey.
- How are you?

- Good.
- You smell good.

Thank you.

Hopper went to MICA, as well!

Dope! So, Hopper, what do you do now?

I work at a gallery uptown part-time,

and I paint in my studio
as much as I can.

I teach occasionally at Hunter
undergrad as a sub.

I heard you had the best time

at that residency program out West.

- How was it?
- Yeah, it was great.

It was a nice mix of studio time
and teaching.

- It was really nice.
- Beautiful.

Wow. That sounds better

than... anything I've done
in the past eight years.

Oh, I'm sure that's not true.

No, it is.

You know what?
I'm gonna send you some links

- to some programs, okay?
- Awesome, yeah.

And also, you are going
to mingle tonight, believe me.

- Okay, I will. Yeah.
- Okay, you know who I'd like

to mingle with, though?
Those canapés right behind you.

- Sir? Excuse me. The food?
- Oh, my God.

- Hi.
- I-I'm gonna tie my shoe!

- Describe!
- Okay.

Salmon and cucumber twist
with a dollop of crème fraîche.

- Okay.
- And our salmon

is cured with beetroot.

If I start choking, do not resuscitate.

- This is how I want to go.
- [LAUGHS]

Hysterical.

Okay.

Ohh.

My laces get tangled.

Food! Oh, you know what? I'm gonna go...

I'm gonna go find them.
'Cause that looks so good.

I'm gonna go get me some of that.

Shit, shit, shit, shit, shit.

Oh, my God. Shit.

Such a character.

Do you have any coke...

I've always known
how to clear out a room.

Okay, moving on with the proceedings.

I would like to look
at the next article,

which is a suspension
period in monogamy.

If we are gonna do this
for another beautiful year,

I would like to make out with five...

ty... "fivety" people.

50 people.

Ilana.

Two.

And I have to know about them.

[SQUEALING] Okay! Dope!

I mean deal.

Communication is dope.

On the long-term front,

I would like to bring up an issue

with the state of Maryland.

- Mm-hmm.
- I think I'd like to move there.

You just want to up and move

to middle-of-nowhere Maryland?

Well, I'm from there,

so my whole family would be there.

My brother's a dentist, also,

and we've always wanted
to start our own practice,

"The Tooth Factory."

And there's lots of great schools there.

Schools? So, w-w-what,

like, cars drive around them
slower, and it's safer to walk?

No. Schools are...

for the children that I father

to attend.

Are we... Are we still
discussing thisyear?

I don't really remember
reviewing this for my notes.

Well, I guess while looking
at this year's points,

I looked ahead at next year
and the year after that.

Is this about the rom-coms?

'Cause I'll watch one
every weekend, you know?

And I'll just rip a bong

and laugh really sincerely,
and I'll learn to love them.

No, it's just that,
I want to buy a house.

I've been looking on Zillow.

Houses aren't even
that expensive in Maryland.

And I want to have kids,

and I want to get married.

Lincoln, I'm only 27.

What am I, a child bride?

You know, I don't know
that I never want it.

I just definitely
don't want it right now.

I could commit to a kid

when I'm like... 43.

Lincoln, I just figured out
that I want to go back to school

and focus on my wizness.

I'm on a New York City timeline.

Do you ever think
you'd change your mind?

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS,
SILVERWARE CLINKING]

At this point,

I can't move on this.

I have no counter.

I-I...

I have no counter.

Well, these points are
non-negotiable for me.

I'm so sorry.
Uh, we were short caterers,

and Abbi's never really been
talented with the tray, so...

Oh, I'm so sorry. Actually,
Abbi's an up-and-coming artist

and my personal guest, not a caterer.

Um, yes, she is.

So, I-I'm... I-I'm actually catering,

but I am... am also a-a guest.

Okay, Ab, We're gonna need you

to start loading some dirties
into a van, so...

Totally. I will do that.

Don't worry about her.
She can get her own canapés.

It's not that bad!
I don't even like this dress.

It's too yellow.

I am so sorry.

This is not how
this was supposed to go down.

I was so excited to be here
tonight as a guest

with all these cool art people.

I mean, I'm actually an artist, too.

I'm just not, like, a... a real one.

Well, you might not want to say that.

But it's smart to have
a flexible service job

so that you can make art.

I waited tables for years.

And I spilled on lots of people.

In fact, half my pieces are inspired

by people I've spilled on.

Well, what are your pieces like?

You might know my work.

I'm Toy Harris.

You're T... You're Toy Harris?

It took us years of protesting,
but we're here.

So, you want to just... you know.

I can't believe I spill...
I spilled on Toy Harris.

I spilled on Toy Harris!

Good night.

Oh, my God. Okay.

Ooh!

This is not her night.

Bah!

Hee-hee-hoo!

What do they do? Hoo-hoo-hee!

now for fresh air!

Ohh!

Please keep your head
out of the window, okay?

You keep your head
out of the window t...

You keep your head out, too.

You probably fainted from low
blood sugar and dehydration.

Your girlfriend said
you narrowly missed fainting

into something dangerous...
a sculpture, I think?

Oh, wait, is Ilana here?

No, she's not my girlfriend.
People do talk, though.

No, uh, Donna?

The woman who brought you in.

Yeah, yeah, Smelly Pussy Do... Donna.

No, Donna's just my friend.

No, I-I don't have
a, um, boyfriend or...

ora-a girlfriend.

That's... surprising.

You just seem like you would.

Oh. Thanks.

No, you, too. You see... I mean,

obviously, you have one...
You do. You're a doctor,

- I don't.

Cool.

Ohh. Fart away, man.

[BOTH GROAN]

God, I'm full.

You know, while I was, um,
breaking your toilet,

I had a lot of time to think, and...

I'm meant to be a polyamorous queen.

I understand.

You got too much love
for just one person.

You are so special.

Such a heart on you.

You're gonna be
an amazing dad and husband.

And you should have those things
if you want them.

I just don't know that I do right now.

You'll figure it out when it's right.

Do you think I'll figure it out
like you,

by the time I'm 40?

I'm 32.

You know, that coupon book
never expires.

So say you have kids,
and you have a wife,

and you guys are, like,
doin' the suburban grind,

I will fly in.

I'll hold on to it.

that I'm still hungry?

Nope, not at all.

And that's why I brought
the cake in here.

That is a good friend.

Wow.

Yep.

Mm.

Okay. So, this is for glucose tablets.

- Okay.
- Not a bad idea

to carry them with you just in case.

And if you're still
feeling weak tomorrow,

I'd make an appointment
with your regular doctor,

but you look great to me.

Okay.

So, uh, is that... That's it?

Um, unless there's something
else I can do for you.

N... I-I don't think so.

Okay. Well...

it was nice to meet you, Abbi.

Yeah, it was nice to meet you,
too, Dr. Marnel.

You know, since we're done,
why don't you call me Leslie?

Okay.

Leslie.

- Hey, Leslie.
- Yes?

Um, I was just thinking,
would it be illegal or whatever

if I...

if I got your phone number?

It would not be illegal.

So, even though it was
a conscious uncoupling,

and we will stay friends,

it was, um, devastating

and tragically bittersweet

and fully broke my heart. [CHUCKLES]

Obviously, you had a shitty night, too.

I mean, look at you. You know,
let's never be apart again.

And I'm just praying
that your nose returns

to its beautiful goyish shape.

Okay, so, my night
was, like, kind of nuts.

- Mm.
- It started off pretty bad,

you know...
typical failure after failure.

But then I realized, like,
I need to put myself out there

alone, to meet all these,
like, rad art contacts.

- Right?
- Dude, I met Toy Harris.

Whoa! Who is that, though?

Yeah. She's, like,
this incredible artist.

And Smelly Pussy Donna was dope.

She, like, introduced me
to all these people

who told me about all these
artist residencies.

She's kind of like my... friend.

Totally! Right?

Yeah. And then, at the E.R.,

you know, after I smashed my face,

- there was this hot doctor.
- Okay!

And we, like, really hit it off.

And then I realized the only reason

I wasn't automatically asking them out

was because she was a woman.

You don't say.

- Yeah. So then I just did it.
- Mm!

We're gonna go out on Friday night. Yes!

It was really
a transformative night, dude.

So cool. Yes!

Yes! Cool! Cool! Cool! Cool!

Cool! Cool! Cool! Cool!
Cool! Cool! C-C-Cool!

We just both had these sort of
life-altering nights
