單身娘帶著三個青春期的少女。女司機問：女孩們的爹呢？娘輕描淡寫答：you tell me! 最后一集給我的觸動無以名狀： 小女兒Duke在街上看到時髦靚麗的老奶奶，忍不住前去搭話。老奶奶講： I‘ve known many good men. They gave me music, love, (oh...) danger, ideas, advantures... It shaped me. But at the end of a day, I prefer being alone. Being alone and being able to feel good with yourself — that's the ticket. Duke說，您真美。老奶奶回：one compliment from a woman is worth a thousand compliments from a man. Duke: You know what my mom says about men? —— It's someone else's problem.

Duke抬頭之后老奶奶就已消失不見。不知道她遇見的是路人，還是自己。

Sam (孩子的娘）: ... I got my period when I was 12. I actually felt it was a cool thing, like my body has the ability to do something incredible, like I was a part of something bigger than just myself. I was now considered a woman. But what I didn't realize then was that to be a woman in the world is to be built up and then let down. They'd cut us, or sell us or marry us off. You're primed and you're prepped and abused and adored and harassed and worshipped. And then... it all stops. All of it. We even age out of the bad things, like being fetishized or diminished, or talked down to. It's even worse. You're invisible. And you're literlly left hunched over and alone, with Santa's belly and a beard to poot, walking around, shringking, thinking: "what just happened?" Phyllis（孩子的祖母）有美麗的身體。用男性的話來說：有和她年齡不相稱的身體。她喜歡裸泳，Sam經常得聽到鄰居們對自己母親抱怨。 第十集的時候，Sam突然放下了所有的包袱，和母親一起裸泳。

Out to the sea, the answers are in the water. It's where we come from, and where we always need to go back to. 另一邊的三個女兒在海邊游玩嬉鬧，玩累了吹著海風發呆，這種情緒，好像電影《The Graduate》的最后幕，那么堅定地知道自己是誰，面對未知，卻又各懷心思。

那年夏天那個在海邊頭發濕濕的自己，擔心自己的魯莽。

這部劇的男人和丈夫們通通不知道哪里去了，只有偶爾碰面的gay友，handyman, ex... 所有男子的角色全部無足輕重，只展現了星星點點的回憶和不得已的生活交集。 （前面季的故事我目前還不知道，大概只了解劇作背景——第四季是作為導演 演員的Pamela沒有Louis CK只后單干的一季，完全做了自己。你問我為啥不從第一季開始看？我喝暈了以為我看的就是第一季，一氣呵成欲罷不能看到第七集了才發劇情和網上的評論和演職員表都對不上號。。。） Pamela和Lousi CK都有種本事，把腦袋里黑白灰線條的故事和經驗論涂上色，加上情緒躍然屏幕，讓你忍不住跟著稱奇。這種創作能量，無可匹敵。 最后一幕引起異常舒適和解脫。Sam對前夫說: 我正在原諒你。但這么做不是為了你, 是為了我自己，是為了我的生活，為了我今后的身心健康舒適， 和為了我的女兒們。（I am forgiving you, but not for you. It's for me, for my future mental and physical health. And for my daughters. ） This is a life when women don't need men but still doing f*cking awesome. 整季語言很平實甚至是充滿細節里的戲謔，每天的片段再日常不過，背景音樂卻非常出彩，讓這部劇的情緒總是這么恰到主題。第六集的gay gay婚禮獻歌怎么可以做到的這么溫柔動人？！前面幾集也各有各的看點，但是最后一集實在是太empowering. 從來沒有看到過一部影視這樣講女性主義，詼諧里有女孩們的成長和堅定，有母親和老母親的孩子氣，每一個和自己的和解在日常小事里娓娓道來，在硬實和吐槽里強大，動容又充滿力量。不知道哪一刻就要給觀眾melt down。 就像主持人說的：MY MIND IS BLOWN OPEN.
