Emma! 01:01:52.208 --> 01:01:55.625 This is a complete disaster. 01:01:55.708 --> 01:01:57.500 This is a PR problem. 01:01:57.583 --> 01:02:02.541 No, Sheldon. We had a PR problem back in New York. 01:02:03.250 --> 01:02:05.208 This was supposed to solve that. 01:02:06.208 --> 01:02:07.250 But this… 01:02:08.166 --> 01:02:10.541 This is heartbreaking. 01:02:10.625 --> 01:02:14.833 This is why you came here? For publicity? 01:02:32.916 --> 01:02:35.375 I have been asked to read a statement. 01:02:35.458 --> 01:02:40.125 "What happened here was not the result of some elaborate plan 01:02:40.208 --> 01:02:44.708 to humiliate this girl, as has been reported in the press." 01:02:44.791 --> 01:02:48.375 "The James Madison High School Parent-Teacher Association 01:02:48.458 --> 01:02:51.333 felt Emma would not be safe 01:02:51.416 --> 01:02:54.750 if we allowed her to attend prom with the other students 01:02:54.833 --> 01:02:57.166 because the uncomfortable truth 01:02:57.250 --> 01:03:03.041 is there are people in our community who are offended by her life choices." 01:03:04.166 --> 01:03:08.083 I can't even wrap my head around this. It's a nightmare. Oh, my God! 01:03:09.416 --> 01:03:11.750 I wanna be the cockeyed optimist here 01:03:11.833 --> 01:03:14.166 'cause I played Nellie Forbush in <span style="style2">South Pacific. 01:03:14.250 --> 01:03:16.458 It was a dinner theater production, but… 01:03:19.041 --> 01:03:21.416 This is horrible. It really is. 01:03:22.000 --> 01:03:24.916 Thanks for hanging out with me these past couple of days. 01:03:25.000 --> 01:03:26.375 You've been a good friend. 01:03:27.041 --> 01:03:31.291 -I have? -You have. You seem surprised. 01:03:31.375 --> 01:03:33.000 No, I just… 01:03:34.458 --> 01:03:37.375 I'm a chorus girl. You know, I just… 01:03:39.708 --> 01:03:43.041 No one ever thanks me. They don't even see me. 01:03:45.166 --> 01:03:47.875 Spend my whole life trying to stay in the game, 01:03:49.541 --> 01:03:51.375 and keep my day-drinking under control. 01:03:52.958 --> 01:03:55.166 That's really nice. Thanks, kid. 01:03:57.583 --> 01:04:01.375 Hey, you're going to get through this. I know it. 01:04:04.250 --> 01:04:08.125 I thought that when my parents rejected me and stopped loving me 01:04:08.208 --> 01:04:10.291 that I would never feel any worse, you know? 01:04:11.916 --> 01:04:13.416 And now this… 01:04:15.250 --> 01:04:16.458 And I feel worse. 01:04:16.541 --> 01:04:19.875 -Honey… -I've never felt so alone in my life. 01:04:19.958 --> 01:04:23.208 But you're not alone. You're not. 01:04:23.291 --> 01:04:25.041 You got me. Hmm? 01:04:25.625 --> 01:04:29.666 And we are ride-or-die, and you do have friends. 01:04:30.666 --> 01:04:31.708 Where are they? 01:04:37.708 --> 01:04:39.291 - This is it. - Yes. 01:04:39.375 --> 01:04:40.750 -No. -Well, okay. 01:04:47.958 --> 01:04:50.125 -Emma, can we come in? -Yes. 01:04:50.208 --> 01:04:52.708 - We brought Häagen-Dazs. - That's fancy ice cream. 01:04:52.791 --> 01:04:55.666 I know what Häagen-Dazs is. Hand it over. 01:04:55.750 --> 01:04:58.500 Emma, I know you said you didn't want us to help anymore, 01:04:58.583 --> 01:05:02.291 but we cannot let them get away with this. We have got to fight back. 01:05:02.375 --> 01:05:04.583 Okay, I know everybody's really angry. 01:05:05.625 --> 01:05:09.083 But I think we have to admit that we have made things worse. 01:05:09.166 --> 01:05:13.666 I think the best thing we can do is disinfect our things and go back home. 01:05:13.750 --> 01:05:15.500 -No, we are not leaving. -No! 01:05:15.583 --> 01:05:19.958 Dee Dee, we are gonna stay here, and we're going to turn this thing around. 01:05:20.041 --> 01:05:22.250 - We gotta take back the press. - Yes, how? 01:05:22.333 --> 01:05:26.000 Emma, you've got to step up and be the face of this thing. 01:05:26.083 --> 01:05:27.750 And that's going to get her a prom? 01:05:27.833 --> 01:05:31.541 This is not about a prom anymore. This is about right and wrong. 01:05:31.625 --> 01:05:34.375 We need a national audience, prime time. 01:05:34.458 --> 01:05:37.500 You want a big audience fast? We gotta use our ace in the hole. 01:05:38.875 --> 01:05:41.125 -One call to Eddie Sharpe is all we need. -No. No. 01:05:41.208 --> 01:05:42.416 - Dee Dee! - He's right. 01:05:42.500 --> 01:05:45.541 If I ask him for something, he will want something in return, 01:05:45.625 --> 01:05:47.375 and what he will want is the Hamptons house. 01:05:47.458 --> 01:05:48.958 He's been trying to get it for years. 01:05:49.833 --> 01:05:53.541 Okay. Okay, fine. Look, Sheldon, you got to get that girl on TV. 01:05:53.625 --> 01:05:55.000 -Okay. -Great. 01:05:55.083 --> 01:05:57.000 No, not great. 01:05:57.083 --> 01:06:00.333 I'm sorry, but there is no way I'm getting in front of a camera 01:06:00.416 --> 01:06:03.375 and telling my story to millions of people. I can't do that. 01:06:03.458 --> 01:06:07.500 -See? -Please. Please, just go. 01:06:08.458 --> 01:06:11.875 -Emma, if you do nothing-- Okay. -Barry.
