Marnie (Allison Williams) and Desi (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) perform as part of a jazz brunch for a distracted crowd at a downtown restaurant. Shoshanna (Zosia Mamet) signs for her diploma with her parents (Ana Gasteyer, Anthony Edwards), who make a bigger deal out of the event than she thinks necessary. Jessa (Jemima Kirke) is confronted by Beedie's (Louise Lasser) daughter, Rickie (Natasha Lyonne), and later seems nonplussed by Hannah's impending departure.

Ray (Alex Karpovsky) gives Marnie a wake-up call about Desi's true intentions before their meeting with a record label. Shoshanna aces, then blows, a job interview. Adam unwittingly gets drawn into Jessa's chaotic web after an AA meeting. At a poets' party in Iowa, Hannah rants about the undue expectations put on women writers, and takes things too far in critiquing her classmates.

Written by Sarah Heyward; directed by Jesse Peretz.
