Maybe the best any of us can do is not quit, play
the hand we've been given and accessorize what we've
got. - Carrie
Full of optimism, Carrie turns in her first article
for Vogue. Her fierce new editor, Enid (played by Candice
Bergen) isn't impressed and says she wants "less
Carrie Bradshaw." However, Julian, the Vogue bigwig
who hired her, isn't worried. He takes her into his
office for a morning pep talk along with one too many
martinis.
In another conversation over drinks, Richard tells
Samantha that what he really wants for his birthday
is a three-way with Samantha and the restaurant's hot
young hostess, Alexa.
Carrie tells Julian that she's thinking of quitting
Vogue. Julian wonders what her dad would say and Carrie
reveals that her father left when she was 5 years old.
She wonders: How much does a father-figure figure?
Meanwhile, mom-to-be Miranda is freaking out about
how she's going to juggle work and motherhood. Charlotte
enthusiastically offers to throw Miranda a baby shower
and Miranda begrudgingly accepts. But when Charlotte
goes into high gear with storks and the must-have baby
toys, Miranda freaks even more. At the shower, Charlotte
cries when Miranda receives a Tiffany's silver baby
rattle just like the one Trey had given her. Miranda
comforts Charlotte and tells her how much she needs
her help with the whole baby/motherhood thing. She also
realizes that she might not be such a bad mom after
all.
Over at Richard's place, the three-way is underway,
until Alexa calls Richard, "Daddy." Richard
tells Samantha to get rid of her. He also tells Samantha
that he wants to try the monogamy thing.
Carrie rewrites her article and it passes the Vogue
test. Julian takes Carrie to the Vogue accessories closet
where Carrie flips over the Mary Jane Manolos. She also
flips when Julian changes into some Versace briefs and
starts to come on to her. She decides to work with Enid
from that point on.
