The next day, Issa’s still desperately looking for a plan B for her block party when she calls Molly. Molly wants to vent about her relationship with Andrew. But, Issa wants Molly to ask Andrew for help. Since Andrew works for Live Nation, Issa is hoping Molly can ask him to get one of the artists to perform at the block party. This frustrates Molly but she agrees. Molly then shows up to Andrew’s later that night with a bottle of wine and cheese. She apologizes to Andrew for making him feel like an afterthought.
She tells Andrew she never dated someone for an extended period of time. So she has to learn how to balance work and her love life. He accepts the apology by kissing her. Molly calls Issa later on and tells her she’s not going to ask Andrew to help Issa. She wants to protect her relationship with Andrew by keeping things separate. This frustrates Issa who promptly ends the phone call. She then tries to take a shower but the water coming out of the showerhead is brown.
