WHAT IN THE HELL...?

"Baby Mama Drama: Your Update On Robert Downey Jr and Lana Mackenzie's Relationship" *

ROBERT
Oh shit
Shit shit shit

LANA
Is this true??

ROBERT
Omg how tf do they find out these things?!

LANA
I'm more concerned by the fact thAT YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOUR EX-WIFE HATED MY GUTS

ROBERT
Honey I'm sorry, I didn't want you to worry about this
Look can we talk about it when I get home?

LANA
Oh no we are talking about it RIGHT NOW
Why does Susan hate me?
AND WHY AM I FINDING OUT ABOUT IT ON E!NEWS ??

ROBERT
Look she doesn't hate you, e news is blowing it waaay out of proportions as always
I didn't tell you because I knew you would freak out
Clearly I was right

LANA
This REALLY isn't the time to be sassy Robert
Of course I am freaking out, how do you think this makes me feel?
I though you and Susan were on good terms
And I've never even met her so why is she pegging me as the evil stepmother??

ROBERT
Lana CALM DOWN it's not like that
Just breathe and I'll explain everything okay?

LANA
I'm breathing
Now start explaining

ROBERT
To tell you the truth she doesn't like you because she thinks I cheated on her with you

LANA
EXCUSE ME??

ROBERT
It was after you gave the interview with Dylan Graham
She realised we met in San Fransisco
And you know I was still married to her back then
So now she's convinced I cheated on her while we were married
And me being with you now just adds insult to injury, you know?
Or at least in her mind it does

LANA
That's bloody insane
We NEVER did anything wrong in San Fransisco

ROBERT
Obviously
And I told her that
But she doesn't believe me

LANA
Jesus Christ
She thinks I was your bloody MISTRESS?
I don't know if I should laugh or scream right now

ROBERT
See, I told you it wasn't as bad as you thought

LANA
Oh it's pretty fucking bad
The woman is convinced her ex-husband CHEATED on her and is now living with his mistress
It must've broken her heart
And if I was in her shoes I wouldn't want my kid anywhere near that mess tbh

ROBERT
Yeah but none of it is actually true
Plus she doesn't have much of a choice, Avri's my daughter too
We have shared custody and there's nothing she can do about it

LANA
Jeez no wonder she hates our guts if you care so little about her feelings

ROBERT
Of course I care about her feelings
But what else do you want me to do?
I tried to convince her I never cheated, she won't believe me

LANA
Do you think I should talk to her?

ROBERT
God NO
That's a terrible idea
Look just let me handle it, okay?
Susan will come around

LANA
I hope so...

ROBERT
And don't start getting paranoid like you always do

LANA
🙄🙄🙄
Whatever
Just come home, I'm sick of having important conversations over text

ROBERT
I'll be back at 4
Don't do anything rash while I'm not here
I love you

LANA
I love you too..
