Please Like Me | S1 E1 — "Rhubarb and Custard"

When Josh’s girlfriend, Claire, dumps him and tells him she’s pretty sure he’s gay, he’s mostly worried that the sundae for two that’s just arrived at their table is suddenly pretty humiliating. Josh seeks out his best mate Tom, who is busy at work googling giraffes and planning to dump his own overbearing girlfriend – and Josh’s nemesis – Niamh. They’re interrupted when Tom’s good-looking and decidedly odd colleague Geoffrey arrives. Geoffrey is upset and in need of someone to talk to. Josh has no idea how to deal with emotions, but he does know where the pop rocks are kept, so he and Geoffrey hit it off immediately. When Geoffrey not only invites himself to dinner, but also invites himself to stay for the night, Josh is terrified. In the morning, as Josh tries to process a BIG night in his adult life, he discovers that his mother has overdosed on painkillers and has ended up in hospital. This is exactly what he doesn’t need right now. With his mum in a fragile state, it looks like Josh might have to move back in to the family home to keep an eye on her. 🇦🇺 Watching from Australia?
