Are You A Charlotte?
Is That You In Painting Number Three?... (S1E5 "The Power of Female Sex")

Here we are seeing the very first signs of it in episode one. She tries to buy these shoes. They cut her credit card really meanly in half. I don't even know if they do this anymore. But I do remember being afraid that it would happen to me in life, right? And I don't think it ever did, but I remember being afraid. At which point she runs into this fantastic character named Amelita.

Now, many people have asked me about Amelita ever since this episode aired many hundred years ago. And I'm always like, I'm Alita. I'm Alita. I only vaguely remember her. Watching this, I was so impressed by Carol Davis. No relation to me that I know of, though we could be sisters, but I don't think we are. But she's incredible. So incredible. Yeah.

So Amelita says, I'm going to buy your shoes for you because you are like a sister to me. And Carrie's like, I never see her. And I've only met her a few times. This is in voiceover, of course. It's all very interesting. But Amelita, to me, seems like she's got really good vibes, you know, and she's just like, I will buy this for you. And here's my boyfriend, my rich boyfriend.

And he has a tiny, tiny you know what, but he knows how to use it. At which point I'm just like, oh, my God, we're so funny. Our show is so funny. And I forget all these things, you know, back in the old days. We used to say all this stuff. So she buys her these shoes. Carrie also tells the camera that Amelita is Euro trash. I don't know if we say this anymore, you guys.

I don't know if it's okay to say this. I feel like maybe it's not. But Carrie says it without... Without judgment, this is another moment where I really think through this whole episode, Carrie is remarkably judgment free up until like the end of this episode. And then you see a little bit of her going like, no, thank goodness. But anyway, we'll get to that. So.

Then Carrie, Carrie lets her buy her shoes. Now look, I think the reason that Carrie lets her buy the shoes is because she's avoiding like, you know, complete and total embarrassment of having her credit card card up. And she really is fully addicted to shoes as she later tells someone. And so for her in a bad spot, this is, you know, like a little hit of dopamine, right?

Like she's getting some shoes, she's getting some new shoes. She's happy. So of course she's going to let her buy the shoes for her. Yes. Do I think that's a little weird? Sure. Would I let someone that I barely know buy me shoes? Probably no, probably no, no, probably no. But you know, this is Carrie and she's easy going, especially back, back in, you know, 1998. We're way easygoing. Okay.

So then, oh, this is so good. Then we go home with Gary and she has a stack of bills and she throws them in her trash, which again, another one of our producers was like, can you believe she did that? I'm like, yes, I can. She writes a column for a New York City newspaper. Right? She's trying to go out, buy fantastic shoes and clothes. She doesn't have money for her bills.

This is how we meet Carrie. You know, she's evolved a lot. But this is who she was in the beginning for sure. So I was not surprised at all. And we do see that her address on the envelope is 243 East 73rd Street, which I do believe is accurate in terms of the book that Candace wrote and where the coffee shop was that we used to see. But we're no longer seeing the coffee shop.

We're slowly moving into... You know, we haven't had the stoop yet. We're getting the different elements of cariness together. This particular episode, we see her in her closet, which is really fun for me, at least. It was really fun to see her in her closet and her bathrooms in the back. And we had so many scenes in those areas. It was a good time to see it. OK, so we're in her apartment.
