Good Girls Revolt (2015–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - The Newser - full transcript

And I read it. It wasn't bad.

- Got a lot of options?
- That's great.

This record's from last March.
It's the Redstockings.

Why aren't they wearing
red stockings?

Hundreds of women are down
in Greenwich Village. It was a big deal.

Not very compelling.
What else have you got?

- In terms of rallies or--
- Yeah.

Rallies. Any of them get violent?

No cat fights. Sorry, man.

It's just our readers have seen sit-ins,
speak-ins, fucking sleep-ins. It's a yawn.

How about one woman?
One woman on the cover, the feminist.



I got Gloria Steinem.

- Betty Freidan.
- Oh, Jesus Christ.

Woof!

Germaine Greer?

And then that one.

Uh-uh. No.

I want a gorgeous broad. Huh?

One who's badder
than a junkyard dog.

- Oh, yeah.
- Gloria Steinem's not bad.

- Is she the leader of this?
- It's hard to tell.

Ned, do you have pictures
of them showering together?

I'd like to see that.

I want the idea of a woman.

Yeah, I hear you, boss. Ha, ha.



The symbol of a woman.
You know what I mean.

Nameless. Faceless.
Yeah. And not a woman, every woman.

That's no woman. That's a mannequin.

When I'm walking down the street,
I stop to check out a sexy mannequin.

They don't put Germaine fucking Greer
in the windows of Saks, do they?

Ned, throw together three mock-ups.
We'll go from there.

- Will do.
- Oh, man.

I'm gonna have trouble
sleeping tonight.

- Look at this.
- The feminine mistake.

- I thought I had a mustache.
- Oh, right?

- Buy you something sweet, young lady?
- Definitely.

- I saw you kick this thing once.
- I did not.

- You did, and it was goddamn adorable.
- Well, sometimes I really want my treats.

I've been seeing Doug
for the past few months.

Rhodes is a good man.

- I've never done anything like this.
- I can't stop thinking about you.

- Me, neither.
- Oh, Finn, I-- I'm sorry.

Angie is-- Is looking for you.
Your-- Your wife is on the line.

Thank you, Cindy.
Thanks, Patti. Thank you very much.

Finn?

Whoa!

Patti.

I don't get this Cathlyn Wilkerson girl.
I'm trying, but I just...

She was a camp counselor
who played the violin.

That's an unexpected feeder program
to the Weather Underground.

She's pretty, a straight-A student...

"working on a Po“ Sci degree
at Swarthmote...

...and did a semester abroad
in France, and then...

...she just-- What? She woke up one day,
and decided to overthrow a government?

Starts building bombs? I don't--

How does someone change like that?

Maybe she didn't.

Maybe every time she saluted the flag,
she felt like she was lying.

Like the place she lived
didn't represent who she was.

And every time
she took her seat in the orchestra...

...instead of blending in,
she wanted to scream out.

I think you just described insanity.

Maybe she felt like a soda bottle...

...that the world was just
shaking and shaking.

- And then one day the cap comes off.
- So she didn't evolve and change.

- She--
- Burst.

Did you get what you need?

Yeah. Good, thanks.

Let's go out.

Café Viand.

Pancakes for the kids, mimosas for us.

That sounds nice.

- Woodhouse here.
- McFadden here.

Jesus, Wick, how the hell are you?

I'm talking to you on a Sunday morning,
so things could probably be better.

You called me,
you cranky son of a bitch.

Yeah. Something's going on
in your magazine.

News of the Week's in trouble.

And I'd rather have this conversation
face to face. You got 20 minutes tonight?

Reggie's, 7:30 sound good?

Yeah.

Sounds good.

- What does he want?
- His job back, I'm guessing.

Son of a bitch puts in three months
at TIME magazine...

...he's already crawling back.
It was inevitable.

Well. Girls, get up.

We're going out for breakfast.

I appreciate everyone
coming out on a Sunday morning.

I need one of you to speak at
the press conference tomorrow.

Oh, aren't you gonna speak?

I'll explain the legal process,
but one of you needs to tell your story.

What you're doing and why.

Well, Patti, aren't you the obvious one?

Oh, yeah.

Jane.

I want you to do it.

Yes. Jane. You would be great.

All right. I'll do it.

So I make it personal...?

You're speaking for
every woman in America.

Jane just got
her first legitimate writing assignment.

We're in the home stretch.

For the next 24 hours,
we carry around our secret.

I don't want you to
say a word to anyone...

...but I know some of y'all
are gonna talk, so...

...please, for the love
of all things holy, be judicious.

We want to open
our news conference...

...just as News of the Week's issue
on feminism hits the stands.

- Eleanor.
- Yes, June.

What should we wear?

Clothes, shoes. Bras are optional.

A suit or a dress?

You wear whatever makes you feel
beautiful and brave...

...and not necessarily in that order.

Let's see that.

Mm.

What a bunch of revolutionaries.

Gentlemen.

- Good morning.
- Hollander.

- Happy Sunday.
- Morning, Carl.

- I got a note from Bea Burkhart. Yep.
- About "When Our Boys Come Home"?

Congratulations.

The last time she sent a note
was to Peter...

...for his investigation
into falsified medical reports.

Then it was a straight shot
to the Moscow bureau for him.

She mentioned you
as head researcher.

She did? Thank you for telling me that.

Oh, how's Noah been
since the piece ran?

Same. He likes to drink beer.

- I actually got a few job leads for him.
- So he's more than a source.

That fight at Patti's
was a one-time thing.

It's not like he walks around
punching people.

I'm actually stopping by
his place tonight. Want to come?

I have plans,
but please tell him I said hi.

Will do.

Oh, please tell me
you went home last night.

I did. You look nice.

Thank you. Are you free tonight?

So far, yeah. You?

I want to see you.

Well, then, I think
we can make that happen.

Let's go out for a good dinner, steak.

Maybe I could
make you dinner at your place.

- Even better.
- Okay. I'm on it.

Promise?

Missing you lately.

- Tip of the hat to you, Jane.
- Hello.

I feel strongly that we
should give her a heads up.

- Why?
- We need to think about...

...what happens after we file.

- We need Mrs. Burkhart's support.
- If we had her behind us--

- That would be a huge get.
- Yes. And telling her is good karma.

I'm falling in love with you, Jane.

But what if she tells Finn,
and we all get fired?

Let's tell her at the last minute.

It's a gesture of respect,
but it doesn't change anything.

Good plan. She's speaking
at the Washington Press Club tomorrow.

So she'll be at her home in Bethesda.

That means one of us should fly down...

...and be in position
to tell her tomorrow morning.

I'll do it.

Cindy, that would mean
that you're not at the press conference.

- Are you sure?
- Yeah.

Yes.

Someone has to do it...

...and I've never been
on a plane before.

Well, all right, then.
I'll fly out first thing in the morning.

How would it affect layout?

- I'll show you.
- Show Gregory.

I'm gonna pull Robinson
into this. Come here.

What do you think of this?

Sexy as hell,
and it makes feminism feel edgy. Right?

Are there other options?

Well...

I mean, that's a joke.
The car is pasted in.

Get it? She's strong.

I know, this isn't a joke. Um...

Well, l...

This does not make me
want to buy the magazine.

What about a photo of
several women together, smiling.

- Maybe one of them has a baby--
- How will we know they're feminists?

How do you know that
lips here is a feminist?

Well, that's a different message.

Oh, sexual freedom
is only one part of liberation.

But it's undoubtedly
the part that keeps us coming back.

What's the other part?

Women realizing
that other women are restless too.

They may
all want different things...

...but ultimately, they want
the same thing. Opportunity.

So they band together to form
a tribe that understands one another.

I like lips.

Okay. I'll see your lips...

...and I'll raise you.

Take that lipstick off. Make her real.

That's what women,
especially young women, want.

They want it to be real.
No more paper dolls.

I'm glad we're doing this issue.

I think it's gonna mean a lot
to the other girls in the pit.

That is music to my ears.
Come tomorrow...

...the newsroom will be full
of smiles, and girls in good moods.

On days like that, who doesn't love
coming to work. Am I right?

Right-o.

Thanks for schooling me.

You have an uncluttered way
of expressing yourself.

I'm very neat.

I wasn't saying you are
tidy around the house.

I was referring to-- Thank you.
--the way in which you reason.

The way you describe things logically,
it's enviable.

But your statement sounds
like someone with a safety net.

Someone who comes from privilege,
with nothing on the line.

And at this conference,
do you know who you are?

You are oppressed.

So speak from your heart. Stop trying
to make everyone feel comfortable.

I think I can still make my point
without being rude.

Bullshit. No one cares
if you thank them for attending.

They wanna know why a pretty white girl
with every advantage in the world...

...wants to work hard when she
could marry, have babies...

...and get her hair done once a week.

I see.

Jane, I wanted you
to be the speaker tomorrow...

...because you are focused
and self-possessed.

And you remind me of myself.

Watching you, I realize
how intimidating I must be.

I always thought that I would be
standing next to my husband...

...as he announced his bid for office,
or thanked his colleagues for an award.

I never thought that I would be the one
standing up in front of the microphone.

I'm not here to ask for my job back.

I'm doing well at TIME,
so let's get that out of the way.

- Okay.
- And I'm not here to tell you...

...we want to hire you away
from News of the Week.

- So let's get that out of the way.
- It's out of the way.

Ted, give me a--
I'll have a Glenlivet, on the rocks.

Right away.

You're being played, Finn.

Who's playing me, Wick?

Gregory Sansone.

- Here you are, sir.
- Thank you.

You know, I have a lot of respect
for the institution that gave me my career.

You don't know him.

Tell me...

...how much ad money is coming from
the Big Three since you hired Gregory?

That's proprietary information,
Wick, you know that.

Car companies were promised
favorable coverage from him...

...in return for big ad buys.

You can't promise favorable coverage.

The profile on Ralph Nader,
on car safety.

You know, Finn,
I got 3O years at News of the Week.

Now, if this magazine goes down...

...as a useless rag
that sold its soul out for ad buys...

...people look at me differently,
as if it was going on the whole time.

It wasn't, and it isn't.

You need to look under the bed, Finn.

I grew up with Gregory.

One drink with a guy I fired...

...isn't gonna convince me
you know him better than I do.

With this pad, I bet the ladies go wild.

You got that right. Heh, heh.

♪ Oh, what a lucky man I'

- I wanted to apologize.
- For what?

All that stuff about my needing a job.

- The truth is, I--
- Yeah, I made some calls.

There's a couple different outfits there,
but all of them are looking.

I'm pretty sure
The Times pays the best...

...but it's an early shift, so...

If I'm being honest,
I didn't think you were gonna do it.

I'm a suspicious son of a bitch
like that.

Are you kidding?

After that party, l...

Hey, you were right.
I've been busy, that's all.

Went up to Belmont.
Stopped by Mom's place.

Yeah? How's Nancy doing?

She's good. She's, uh, good.

Went through some old boxes.

You won't believe what I found.

Hot damn.

I forgot all about this.

That's because your father
didn't whoop you over it.

Fucking Mickey Mantle.

Oh. What were we thinking? Ahem.

Sam Rosenberg.

Noah Benowitz.

Oh. Some poor old sap
named Mickey Mantle.

It's incredible.

Thanks for showing me.

Take it.

- No. No way.
- No, it's yours. That article you wrote...

...is gonna help a lot of guys out.

I want you to have it.

Um...

Thanks for the beers. Well, all of them.

Hey. Call those guys.

They'll find something for you.

Cracks me up.

♪ Ooh, what a lucky man he was N'

Noah? Noah?

Noah? Noah!

Help! Somebody help! My-- My friend.

Open up! Hey! Noah, Noah!

Noah! No!

I'm not even afraid to fly.

You know? I thought
that I would be more scared.

I'm scared.

I'm having dinner with Doug tonight,
and I'm gonna tell him.

I'm telling Lenny tonight too.

Whoo! Heh...

Mm. Mm!

- God, Jane. Your apartment is--
- Gorgeous.

Yeah, ha, ha!

Thank you so much
for having us over for happy hour.

I don't know
why I've never done it before.

Patti, what will you do if we win?

And what is your dream assignment?

I want to be the bureau chief in Cairo.

I'm going to ride a camel.
And I'm going to interview bedouins.

What about you, Cindy?

Well...

...I'm with Lenny.
I can't move to Cairo.

Boo!

But I would love
to learn a foreign language.

All the best novelists
know more than one.

They have those night classes, um,
that the guys go to before they go off to--

Before they go off
to wherever they want.

And then I could maybe
jet in and out for a week or two...

...and write feature stories.

Oh, man, you could cover
breaking news. You know?

Go on the road for a week,
come home for a couple of weeks.

Imagine getting the call
that they're sending you to a hot spot.

Jane, that's it. That's the call.
They're sending me to Cairo.

Run, the future won't wait, Jane.

This is Jane Hollander, hello?

- Hello?
- Ahem. Jane, l...

What does the future say, Jane?

This is Jane. Hello?

It's me.

- Sam?
- Oh, Sam Rosenberg.

- I'm here...
- He's adorable.

- So dreamy.
- Girls, please.

Jane, why don't you
just ball him already?

Shut up.

Sam, I'm so sorry,
I could barely hear you.

Do you need something?

No, I'm...

I'll see you tomorrow. Bye.

The future can wait, Jane.

Jesus, Doug,
what are you doing here?

A first-person account of how
you're gonna sue News of the Week?

I was supposed to
meet you at your place.

I convinced your super to let me in.

Doug, I was going to tell you tonight.

We aren't protected from getting fired
until we file the complaint.

But I can't fire you. So you
could have told me at any point.

- Yeah, but you might have--
- Told on you?

You think I'm gonna tell somebody
you want to be a reporter?

You've lied to my face. For months.

- I know.
- To everyone's face.

I know, and I feel terrible about that.

Finn's gonna hit the roof.

Are you hearing me?

I'm hearing you.

What do you like about me, Patti?
If I'm so terrible, so untrustworthy, wh--?

- Why are you with me?
- Doug, it's not like that, it--

I'm sorry, I'm-- I know it's messy.

Damn it, Patti, I--

I would have supported it.

- Like you did with Altamont?
- That was months ago.

You told me I was a researcher,
not a reporter.

I would have cheered you on.
Hell, Patti, I would have helped you.

Like you did with my Novo-22 article?

You screwed that up, and you know it.

Was your first article perfect?

Huh?

Or did some researcher
catch all of your mistakes...

...proofread you,
make you look brilliant.

And by the way,
even if my copy had been perfect...

...I still wouldn't have gotten a byline.

Where are you going?

Somewhere I don't have to fight
with you.

Damn it.

What is wrong with us, Patti?

Oh! Hello.

Uh...

Lenny, do you remember,
a couple months ago...

...when I asked you
about that civil-rights law?

No.

Well, I asked you about the rights
of women, uh, to be reporters.

Vaguely.

I was asking because
News of the Week...

...relegates women to research jobs.

And that is not fair.

We are filing a complaint
with the EEOC...

-...the Equal Employment Opportunity--
- I know what the EEOC is, Cindy.

You need a lawyer, you know.

We have one.

Eleanor Holmes Norton of the ACLU.

You went to a lawyer at the ACLU?

Yes.

When?

Just before Christmas.

You've been doing this
since the holidays?

This isn't you.

It is.

This is me, Lenny.

How will you be a wife and a mother
if you're at the office all day?

Did you think about that?

You are so fucking selfish.

Lenny...

Oh, Jesus.

Honey.

I didn't mean to...

- Holy shit.
- I'm fine.

I don't want to be your wife anymore.

I didn't know where else to go.

Come in.

I should have helped him.
I should have.

Shh...

It's not your fault.

You did everything you could.

No, I didn't.

I didn't do a goddamn thing.

He asked for my help,
and I-- I used him.

For a fucking cover, and now he's--

Sam, look at me. Hey, look at me.

Noah didn't kill himself
because of you.

He wasn't like this before.

He came back different.

And l...

I-

It's okay.

I need this too.

Janey.

What happened? Are you all right?

Yes. I just didn't want to use my key
in case the alarm was on.

- Your mother's asleep.
- Good. I can't stay, my cab is waiting.

You've thought more
about the law firm.

No.

I wanted to give you this.

I love my apartment,
but I think it's time for me to move.

You're giving me back
your rent check?

I want to pay my own rent now. I work.

Okay, well,
I'm not gonna let you sacrifice safety.

If you want to put
your pin money toward rent...

...so you feel some sense
of ownership, it's fine...

...but you're not downgrading
to Hell's Kitchen.

You and Mommy
have been so generous with me.

But I want to pay my own way.

Okay. I'll see you on Thursday,
then, when you run out of money.

Oh...

There's something else
that I want to tell you.

L-- I signed, um...

I joined the-- I'm-- I'm part of--

Janey, think about
what you want to say and say it.

I'm part of an EEOC complaint
against News of the Week...

...because they don't let women write.

And that's illegal.
We have an attorney.

- You have an attorney?
- Mm-hm.

Janey, where's this coming from?
Are you using drugs?

I have the right
to become a reporter. That's only fair.

Uh...

Okay, um...

For argument's sake,
I'll ask you the same question...

...that I'd ask your brother.
Do you have a five-year plan?

No?

I have a three-year plan.

I'll become a reporter first.

And then I'll apply
to the master's in law program at Yale.

It's for journalists who want
to cover the Supreme Court.

I want to write about
the highest court in the land.

And I would be
the first woman to do that.

If we win.

If they let me become a reporter.

Because I need clips
to apply to the law program.

How will you pay
for graduate school?

- Did you think about that?
- There are fellowships.

I see.

Fine. So you don't need anything.

Or anyone.

I need you, Daddy.

And I want you to be proud of me.

Those sons of bitches
at Yale rejected me.

You should apply to Radcliffe.

What?

I may have to fire Gregory,
and I dread telling you because...

...you'll think it's an excuse
for me to be preoccupied with work.

You can tell me.

I wasn't at the office tonight.

Took a long walk.

That's where I was.

Talia.

What's happening to me?

It couldn't take place unless--

Unless something
had happened here first.

I wanted it to work more than anything.

I'm going to check into
The Sherry-Netherland.

What are we going to tell the girls?

- What the hell?
- Morning.

Do you know how to work this thing?
Where are the girls? Where's Patti?

She can do this.

I don't know. I'll go downstairs
and grab you a cup of coffee.

- I need to talk to you.
- As luck would have it...

...we're both here together
dying of fucking dehydration.

I want to cover the war.
I want you to send me to Vietnam.

Why Vietnam?

Because it's the biggest
foreign story in the world...

...and I want combat experience.

Never thought you'd be opposed to me
running to danger for the sake of a story.

Vietnam's been going on for years.
Why do you want to go now?

The Weather Underground story
gave me...

...a taste of covering life and death.
I want more of it.

All right, just send me,
I'll produce for you.

I'll let you cover the war.

The one here.

Vietnam's winding down
or dragging on, I'm not sure which.

You're kidding me.

This war at home.
It's got dozens of bombs...

...going off throughout
New York City each month...

...that needs to be covered
by great writers like you.

- I've done that for two years.
- I'm editor-at-large of this magazine.

I call the shots. I want you to keep doing
what you're doing.

Do you?

- Do you call the shots here?
- I don't know what crawled up your ass--

Either I write for News of the Week over
there or I write for another publication.

Where is everyone?

Go downstairs
and get me a cup of coffee.

Yeah, sure.

Mrs. Burkhart, Cindy Reston.

Good morning.

Well, this is the first time
I've received an urgent visit--

That's the word you used, isn't it?

--From a researcher
from News of the Week.

Much less this early in the morning.
Not to mention...

...without a call first.

Heh...

Well, it is my first time in Washington.

Your home is lovely.

What the hell's going on?

I know that it may seem rude,
me showing up like this...

...but it was actually meant
to be the opposite, to be extra polite.

Mrs. Burkhart...

...this morning, there is going
to be a press conference.

Several dozen researchers
from News of the Week...

...are going to ask
to be treated equally.

I'm not following.

Equal...

...to the men.

You girls want to do men's jobs?

Federal law gives women
the same opportunities as men.

But News of the Week
won't allow women to be reporters.

So we have filed a complaint
with the EEOC.

But I'm the publisher.

Yeah.

So whose side
am I supposed to be on?

What did you tell the car companies
about our Ralph Nader story?

I don't remember word for word.

I know it brought in revenue.
So you're welcome.

Revenue's easy.
It's earning it with integrity.

You can't undo the impression
that we're for sale.

Finn. Finn!

Bea Burkhart's on the phone.
She says it's an emergency.

Finn, lawyers from the New York office
are headed your way...

...and I am madder than hell.

It's almost showtime, ladies.

Eleanor, what happens now?

This.

But after this,
do we go back to work as reporters?

The purpose of today
is to publicly embarrass your bosses.

Our hope is that they
voluntarily submit to the law...

...instead of waiting
for the commission rule.

So we go back
as researchers and wait?

Yes, but I dare any man
that works at News of the Week...

...to try and hold his head up high
after this.

But this isn't personal.

Of course it is.
Outside of a person's love...

...the only thing more sacred
they can give is their labor.

You've given the magazine
your labor, and they've used you.

- But I don't think--
- They take us for granted, Patti.

Now they can't be slippery with us.

We're trying them
in the court of public opinion.

Eleanor, where should we sit?

- Jane. I have to go.
- What?

- I have to go tell Finn. He should hear--
- No, Patti. We need you here.

This will ruin his career, Jane.

Other places let women write.

He won't let us write.
He could, but he doesn't.

I have to.

--as all parties
involved hope to achieve detente...

...has faded by officials in
the Nixon administration.

And in New York, a news conference
at the American Civil Liberties Union...

-...is about to get unden/vay.
- Sir, can you turn it up?

The ACLU says their announcement
has national significance...

...though legal action has
been embargoed until it's announced.

We will keep you posted. A peace rally
was held today in New York City...

♪ 'Cause this feeling
Won't leave me alone I'

♪ But I won't, won't
Be losin' my way, no, no I

♪ Long as I can see the light N'

Because in
the United States of America...

...we are guaranteed protection
under the law.

Now, I will turn over this news conference
to one of the plaintiffs.

Speaking on behalf
of the women, Jane Hollander.

Good morning.

We have asked sweetly to be allowed
to prove ourselves at the office.

We have asked permission to be
treated equally to men we work next to.

Enough.

Today, we demand that
our employer comply with federal law.

At News of the Week,
women are not permitted...

...to appear in the magazine
under a byline.

And yet, we know the magazine
would not achieve...

...the level of quality it is known for
without our contributions.

There is no mysterious
God-given talent required...

...to the reporter at News of the Week.

It is a mixture of talent,
hard work, and opportunity.

We deserve, and are entitled to,
that opportunity.
