Conversations with Friends S01E10 - Episode 10

Melissa emails Frances suggesting they talk. Nervous but determined, Frances goes to meet her. Melissa is interrogative but also vulnerable to Frances, and surprisingly admits that things are better between her and Nick - and accepts that Frances is a reason for that, so therefore she'd like to find a way to make it all work. Frances and Bobbi go to Nick and Melissa's for an awkward dinner which leaves Frances feeling a little unsure of everything. Frances meets Nick for dinner where she shares the exciting news that her story is going to be published in a literary magazine. She admits that Bobbi doesn't know about the story or that it's about her – but that she'll tell her eventually. The next morning, Frances gets a concerning voicemail from her dad. She calls her mom and has a stressful afternoon waiting for an update; Paula eventually confirms that Dennis is safe but is clearly worried for him. Bobbi and Frances meet up with friends, Bobbi is aggressive towards Philip's girlfriend. Later, Bobbi explains that her behaviour is a result of her parents' divorce. Bobbi explains how hard she is finding things and difficult it is to deal with. Frances comforts her - and a flash of their old attraction emerges.
