00:01 My bridesmaid entrances are the stuff of legends.
00:04 Ever the bridesmaid, that is my badge of honor.
00:06 You feel me?
00:08 I feel you.
00:09 I go to weddings and baby showers every damn weekend.
00:14 When are you gonna give me grandkids?
00:15 Talk to your firstborn about grandchildren.
00:17 I don't want him procreating.
00:18 No.
00:19 That's terrifying.
00:20 Yeah, nobody wants that.
00:21 I don't have a man or any legit prospects.
00:24 What have I ever done?
00:25 Am I not suitable for life?
00:26 You are very suitable for life.
00:28 I feel like I'm running out of time.
00:30 Are you seeing anyone now?
00:33 I'm seeing everyone now.
00:35 It's sort of an all-you-can-eat buffet.
00:37 How old are you?
00:37 Please say 32 or 33.
00:40 Nellie, I'm 34.
00:42 Stupid.
00:44 I want you to remember me.
00:49 They can be a never neverland.
00:50 Never growing up, never aging.
00:52 But those eggs, they are.
00:56 If I don't spend $13,000 to freeze my eggs, I might never be able to have kids.
01:00 Meanwhile, you're gonna wait till you're 70 to have a baby with an influencer.
01:05 That is accurate and I'm not embarrassed about it.
01:08 What's new with you, Nellie?
01:10 I'm thinking about getting my eggs frozen.
01:12 That's amazing.
01:14 Maybe I should have a baby shower.
01:15 But you're not having a baby.
01:18 What if I screw this up?
01:21 I don't even know if I want kids.
01:23 I've seen euphoria.
01:24 You're not gonna screw this up.
01:25 Woo!
01:26 You're buying time.
01:31 Someone who's good enough for you is hard to come by.
01:33 I'm either going through a renaissance or amidst the worst crisis of my lifetime.
01:40 Here we go.
01:45 Down here, you look like I'd say...
01:48 Virgin?
01:49 Definitely not.
01:51 Okay.
01:52 I'm not ready.
