It’s a Saturday night at an upscale restaurant. Marlene (Claire Kaplan) has arrived and it’s clear she is here to celebrate. She has many guests attending, and she wants the wine to just keep flowing.. As the women start to arrive, it’s clear that this scene does not take place today. Isabella Bird (Susaan Jamshidi) walks in, followed soon by Dull Gret (Yourtana Sulaiman), Pope Joan (Morgan Lavenstein), Lady Nijo (Hannah Kato), and Patient Griselda (Luke Halpern).
