Meanwhile, Anne receives unwelcome news, which leaves her grappling with a life-changing decision. And Frankie tries – and fails - to keep her postpartum depression from affecting her work.

  • 2. Rules

    Kate tries to juggle it all: motherhood, work, exercise, baby classes, date night… and packs it in to the point of nearly jeopardizing a performance review at work. Luckily for Kate her reputation precedes her – and she’s one of two candidates being considered for a promotion. Can Kate continue to pursue her career to the highest level? Meanwhile, Anne tries to reign in her sexually explicit nine-year-old daughter. And Jenny reluctantly returns to work where she reconnects with an old friend: her sex drive.

Meanwhile, Anne tries tough love with her wild child daughter, and Jenny attempts to attract the interest of her new manager, but fails — confusing him, and sending her further down a reckless road.
