Previously on Faking It...
Let me be the messenger.
But... won't that ruin
- your chances with Amy? - I think I'll be okay.
If you don't see me as fully male,
then maybe we shouldn't date.
- Let's talk. - We just did.
The whole internet thinks we're a couple!
Just tweet saying we're just friends.
Right.
- Who's this? - Her boyfriend.
You've been lying this whole time?
It was a mistake!
- I'm so sorry. - You saved me.
Did I mention that one time when I yawned,
and I'm pretty sure Sabrina didn't yawn after me?
That's a sign of a sociopath. I looked it up online!
You have mentioned. Several times.
I'm overdoing it with the Sabrina talk, aren't I?
No. Amy, (BLEEP) talking your ex with your best friend
is a constitutional right.
But... it's been two weeks.
You're right.
I've spent way too much time overanalyzing her... crazy.
Yeah. She's not worth it.
So let's go O.D. on fro-yo
and not think about her.
Oh, I've missed fro-yo.
Sabrina couldn't do dairy.
Except for that one time
she took a bite of my cheeseburger.
So many lies.
Hey, girls! Sorry to interrupt.
We just wanted to invite you to join us.
Yeah. Diane's leading us
in her year-end cleansing ritual.
Yeah, uh... no, thanks, Diane.
Well, are you sure? It's way cathartic.
We're symbolically burning things
to "let go of" in the new year.
Actually,
that sounds perfect, Diane.
- This new year... - BOTH: Let it go, let it go...
- I release myself from... - Let it go-go-go...
The clutches of those twin siren sisters tar and nicotine!
BOTH: Let it go! (WOMEN CHEERING)
- I feel different now! Oh! - (EXHALING)
Okay, you're next.
- Ready to let it go? - Okay...
ALL: Let it go, let it go, let it go-go-go!
So long, psycho-Sabrina.
You forced me to watch the dreaded last season
of "The L Word" with you... Let it gogo-go...
Let it go, let it go, let it go-go-go.
- And... - Let it go, let it go...
Screw you for looking so in love with me in this picture!
Let it go, let it go-go-go!
Let it go, let it go... I'm moving on!
That felt good.
I think that really worked.
(WOMEN WHOOPING)
- So proud of you. - It's a new year!
- Thanks. - It's a new year!
(SIREN)
Oh, my God.
I am so, so sorry.
Don't worry, Amy.
This definitely isn't your fault.
It'll all be okay.
Aunt Sage sold us some great insurance, so...
And at least Amy is over Sabrina.
Ha. Yep! Ha.
So... over her.

Morning, muffin.
Hashtag breakfast for my man. Hashtag... Booper.
Lauren, will you stop
with the cutesy couple photos already, please?
- This is getting ridiculous. - (CHUCKLES)
Would you call doubling up my followers ridiculous?
Everyone is shipping us so hard!
I'm not "shipping" this.
Please, it's been two weeks. Can we fake break up already?
People are invested.
We need to ride this out until Boopermania dies down.
Then right at the moment we've stopped trending...
Bam! We break up and get them talking again.
You're a monster.
(SCOFFS) Don't act like
you're not getting something out of this too.
Oh, yeah? What could I possibly be getting out of this?
Oh, what about Karma?
It's obvious you two are just killing time

Yeah!
Only with parental supervision.
And you're both sure you can handle this
emotionally? 'Cause I have to admit,
I'm a tiny bit terrified.
Mom, I just broke up with Sabrina.
Yeah, and before that, that thing with Felix.
- Mm-hmm. - Which... may or may not

Have you give any more thought to his offer?
Not that I'm pushing Felix. Or boys in general.
I know how you love to defy me.
Not this time, Mom. You were right.
Everything does happen for a reason.
Sabrina turned out to be a whack job
because I'm meant to spend New Year's with Felix.
Are you sure about that?
I mean, it wouldn't be fair to Felix
if you're not over Sabrina.
I told you, I am!
And I think we can all agree that Felix is great.

Okay!

Well, why didn't you lead with that?
Text me the info. I'll see you guys there.
Bye, Noah.
Later...
Okay. What is going on with you two?
You used to be all banter, and now you're all business.
I can't talk about it to anyone, okay?
I wish I could, but I can't, all right?
Not even with Noah, 'cause when I tried to,
I hurt him, and I don't want to hurt him again.
Can you just drop it, okay?
Shane, what the...
I can't talk about it!
- What's going on with him? - He won't say.
He and Noah are having some issues.
Maybe you could give him some advice...
you know, since everything's going so well
with hashtag-Booper!
Karma... are you jealous?
It's kinda hard to be jealous of something
that's so obviously not real.
Mmm! You are a latte genius.
(SCOFFS/LAUGHS)
Voilà!
Wow! I can't believe
I'm actually helping you shop for a dress!
This is blowing my mind a little bit.
I wanna look good on New Year's.
And boys like dresses.
I... heard what happened
with Sabrina.
Are you okay?
I'm fine. And I'm over it.
And I really don't feel like talking about it,
so can we just drop it?
I know from experience that saying you're okay
isn't the same as being okay, and...
Mm-mm. Pretending isn't gonna make it all go away.
You're one to talk about pretending, Mrs. Liam Booker.
What makes you think we're pretending?
Because it's absurd!
Lauren, you've done some pretty crazy things to gain followers,
but... this one takes the deluded cake.
I am never giving thoughtful advice again.

Hey, Karma. I'm sorry about your house.
Most of my stuff survived.
Zen is the one who lost everything.

Who... I... hear will be kissing you at midnight.
She sent me a text to that effect, yes.
Well, I'm super-happy for you two.
I-I know how much you've wanted this.
So you... can't think of any other reason
why I shouldn't go with Amy to New Year's?

Well, if isn't Sabrina the teenage bitch.
Good one.
Karma, please hear me out.
Save it, Sabrina.
Go crawl back under your rock with your boyfriend.
I broke up with Evan... because I wanna be with Amy.
Look at me!
I'm a mess. I can't eat, I can't sleep.
All I can do is think about her.
Have you thought about telling her this instead of us?
I tried... but she won't let me talk to her.
That's why I'm here.
To ask for your help.
Ha. You're asking me to help you.
That's how much I care about Amy.
I'll do whatever it takes. I just can't lose her!
Enough. Even if your feelings were real,
Amy's over you.
She's going to New Year's with Felix,
and she can't wait,
because she's meant to be with him... not you.
(CART RATTLING)
Rough day, honey?
I saw Karma today.
She wasn't even the tiniest bit jealous of us.
Ha! I knew you weren't above making an ex jealous.
Yeah, well, Karma said it's tough to be jealous
about something that isn't real.
Why the hell doesn't anyone believe we're dating?
We're living together, sharing space.
Is it so hard to believe
that could have turned into something more?
Maybe we need to show everybody
just how real we are.
And how exactly will we do that?
How great is this?
So great!
You know, normally, this is the time
where I would have to say good night and go home.
- Except this is your home. - (GIGGLES)
You know... I almost want to thank Sabrina.
That's a healthy way of looking at it.

I told her it would never see the light of day,
but I guess I was wrong.
Wait... do people think I killed her?
You know, this was probably not the best idea for a date,
