After last week’s premiere introduced us to Bravo’s first non-reality series, last night’s Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce Season 1 Episode 2 taught us Rule #174.
That’s a whole lot of rules. What made this one so important, and how did it apply to the second installment of the Lisa Edelstein and Paul Adelstein drama?
Well, Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce Season 1 Episode 2 began right after the quip by Abby went viral. You know, her comment about wishing Jake were dead.
Her very much alive and estranged spouse is still crashing on her couch, as the stay at home dad and failed movie director has nowhere else to go.
Also crashing? Her career, or at least it’s on the verge after Abby’s editor bails and her publisher cancels her book tour. But things look up on a different front.
A guy from her past, Nate, hears about Abby’s split and wants to meet up. He’s also married, though, so she’s wary of bringing any more drama to her life.
Jake, meanwhile, is dating young actress Becca, who may let him move into one of her investment properties and get his name out to contacts, to boot.
Friends Lyla and Phoebe discuss with Abby the prospect of seeing a divorce lawyer, which she does. Delia wants her to go after Jake, and HARD.
She hopes that it can be settled in mediation, and amicably, but who knows.
Abby, along with Pheobe and Lyla, go to a celebrity baby shower, which hopefully will let her take a break from all of this … but then Becca arrives there.
During their predictable and predictably awkward run-in, Becca mentions that Jake signed a lease for an apartment … which neither of them can now afford.
You can forget about mediation now, Jake, pulling a move like that.
