'And Just Like That' Recap: Episode 8 — Miranda Steve Divorce - TVLine

Carrie tried to impress her hip young neighbor this week on And Just Like That…, and Miranda made a big decision in her love life.

But when Miranda spots her son Brady in the crowd, she skulks away… just as Che is telling the crowd “you have nothing to hide.” Afterwards, Miranda says she hasn’t told her son about any of this yet, and Che innocently asks: “He doesn’t know you’re in an open marriage?” Yeah, about that… Miranda admits that her marriage isn’t exactly open, and Che gets upset that she hid this from them: “I’m not a home wrecker.” They storm off, telling Miranda to “figure out your life.”.

Miranda has big news for Carrie and Charlotte: She’s going to ask Steve for a divorce.

Charlotte also shares her horrifying moment with Harry and Lily… but Carrie and Miranda are stuck on the fact that she still does that: “Is it his birthday?” “Is he dying or something?” (OK, this bawdy exchange did actually capture the vibe of vintage Sex and the City. Bravo, writers.) Carrie checks in with Miranda to make sure she wants to do this: “You’re exploding his world,” she warns.

Carrie does get a sweet apology from her neighbor, and later, Carrie goes to her door with a gift of brownies, where she’s greeted by the neighbor’s boyfriend wearing just a towel!

He tells her, “We don’t eat sugar,” and Carrie tries to exit gracefully, but she drops the brownies, and the boyfriend bends over to pick them up… and his towel drops.

When she confronts her, Lily storms off to stay with Carrie, who tries to tell Charlotte that Lily is just figuring out who she is.

Later, Lily explains that Instagram account is private and just for her friends, and the “penis cancer” lie seems to have worked on her, so maybe she’s not so grown up after all.

(The girl also catches Carrie out on the street smoking a cigarette and wearing an old lady head scarf and rubber gloves, which is kind of hilarious.) But after Carrie witnesses an ugly breakup between her and her formerly nude boyfriend, she offers her expertise, telling the girl it’s just “New York dating.” The neighbor thanks her and declares that Carrie is “cool.” Even with the rubber gloves.

She calls Carrie to report that Steve just wants her to be happy… and that she’s heading to the airport to catch a flight to Cleveland and surprise Che at their standup gig.
