We have a lot of weird messages about what a friend should be.

They should have your back no matter what a good friend won't spill all your secrets.

If it's three am they pick up the phone and help you bury that dead body.

Oh my God you guys, we're gonna get an early start to brunch.

Oh my God.

Mimosas bottomless mimosas on me.

You guys shut up.

But I think a lot of the messaging around friendship is just wrong.

Contemporary ideals of friendship insist that a friend should be a blind cheerleader, which can do way more harm than good.

The cops found my phone at the scene.

What should I do?

Should I lie I should lie right?

They said if I went to the crime, I'm facing life in prison.

Well homegirl, you know exactly what it is to be the best you and that means being who you really are a murderer and a liar.

So absolutely say funk off to the truth justice.

The consequences of your actions and all of that.

Lie lie, lie, lie, lie.

Go ahead.

Now lie.

Let fucking see a blind cheerleader is someone who is incapable of being a real sounding board.

They enable and courage and say what they think you want to hear.

They refused to tell you hard truth.

So they offer me plea deal.

If I rat out melissa.

I know I'm the one that stabbed the guy but I'll only get parole if I say she did it.

We look exactly alike and our fingerprints are the same.

So it's an easy out.

I should take home girl.

If you want to be a backstabbing bitch, you should totes go for it, backstabbing backstabbing Hey, absolutely compromise your moral ethics, loyalty, integrity, sisterhood and everything else.

Okay, Okay.

Yeah.

What you need.

And a friend is a co historian.

Someone who will check you when it's needed.

Someone who supports you, but also encourages you to take accountability guys, I'm gonna be honest with you, it's not looking good right now.

Your accomplices to murder with obstruction of justice.

If you ask me, you should plead guilty and serve your time, but we didn't kill him.

And anna promised us bottomless Mimosas, what are we supposed to say no to bottomless Mimosas guilty?

You need to shut up and sit down.

Why do you guys even listen to her?

Not only does she just say yes to whatever it is you say and feel she's the reason you're here and she stabbed him 19 times, Kevin deserved it.

Look, if you want my advice, which clearly you do because I have a collard shirt on.

So I'm your legal counsel as well as your co historian.

You still committed a serious crime.

You chose to bury kevin win in that crawlspace and toast over his dead body with Mimosas bottomless Mimosas.

Shut up.

Anna I can't listen to anymore.

You don't care about our well being.

You don't care about helping us all you care about is cheering us on no matter how detrimental it is.

We could ask if we should do math and you would probably say yes, that's what I'm talking about.

We can't be friends anymore.

We don't need a blind cheerleader, We need a co historian, someone who will tell us the truth.

Even one is hard and who wants us to live our lives with integrity.

Who gives it to us straight and who isn't a murderer.

I understand Bridget and our friendship.

Can we just put this bitchin jail?

Yeah, let's nail her for this.

Great.

I'm anaconda.
