Girls: Abortion

Episode 2 was really great. I have to say that this is like Sex and the City, if SATC was realistic. Girls in their 20's with no money, living in Brooklyn, not wearing Manolos, dating slacker guys, not billionaires like Big. Great concept. I love how the main star is the writer, director and actress. Brilliant!  Let's begin shall we?

We start off with Hannah having sex with her booty call and he is making her pretend that she is a slut with a cabbage patch kid lunchbox, ew. They use condoms, but she is a bit worried about the "stuff that comes up on the sides of condoms" haha. We also cut to Marnie having sex with her too nice boyfriend Charlie. This show is a bit graphic. The girls are going with Jessa to her abortion. They have never been to one before and Hannah talks about it lightly, like a hair appointment.

Jessa is smoking weed (while pregnant may I add) in cousin Shoshanna's room. Shoshanna is making an inspiration board and talking in her peppy, valley girl talk. I like how they bring her in more to this episode. Shoshanna, Jessa and Hannah sit on a bench and eat Tasti-D (what else would they eat) and talk about this book Shoshanna has about the "ladies". Jessa gets so mad because she doesn't want to get categorized as the ladies and doesn't want to admit that guys don't like her for her. They agree to meet her there and Hannah makes Marni book her an appointment to see if she has an STD.

Jessa doesn't want to think about this abortion so she goes to have a drink at a bar, a white Russian. She misses her abortion appointment and hooks up with a guy in the bathroom. She tells him to touch her under her skirt and he pulls out two fingers with blood on it. Guess she got her period, no need for an abortion.

Hannah has an interview with a publication. She is doing really well and she is vibing with the boss when they talk about their favorite bars. She is about to get the job until she makes a joke about him being a rapist. His face turns serious and he kicks her out, rightfully so. Did she think that was funny?

Shoshanna brings Dylan's candy to the abortion, Hannah and Marnie are there, no Jessa. They leave her tons of texts and messages but nothing. Shoshanna admits she is a virgin. Marnie admits she wants to have kids. Hannah has her appointment and asks her doctor about the stuff on the sides of condoms. Her doctor hates her. Hannah says she thinks she has AIDS and wants it. Her doctor again is appalled. People are so ignorant. Test is over.
