The Single Moms Club

Lytia rushes out of her diner with her two kids, trying to catch the bus. Branson, a personal trainer who is interested in her, offers to drive them to the school meeting. The gesture starts weaving connections that will pull the group together later.

May meets Jan to discuss publishing her book, but Jan rejects the idea. On the way to the meeting, May's car won't start and she calls for help from T.K. She also leaves her purse behind in the rush, hinting at the upcoming scramble.

The principal informs the parents that their children vandalized the school and were caught smoking. The board wants expulsion, but the principal pushes for a probationary period. She asks the parents to volunteer for the fundraiser and school dance, and the five moms agree to meet up later to organize.

After the meeting, T.K. brings May her purse and asks her out to dinner. She declines, signaling that not every personal connection will fit into the new club dynamic. The moment highlights how each woman still has her own priorities.

Esperanza attends her daughter's birthday party where her ex gives their daughter a cell phone, a move that undermines her parenting. The gesture fuels her concerns about losing control over the family and adds tension to her situation. She leaves the party feeling conflicted about co-parenting boundaries.

Lytia arrives early, distraught by the divorce that stripped her of much of her stability, including the maid. The other moms rally around her and start discussing how they can support one another. They decide to form The Single Mom's Club to lean on each other.

The group formalizes The Single Mom's Club, outlining a shared mission to support single mothers everywhere. They commit to helping each other navigate parenting, careers, and personal challenges.

The women agree to go out socially every week and take turns watching each other’s kids, building a practical support network. The routine gives them a chance to connect beyond school events and to reinforce their bond. They also start planning regular group activities like movie nights.

For a movie night, Hillary coordinates care for the kids while Esperanza takes Manny and May connects Jan with a friend from work. During the film, May's son runs away and cannot be found, triggering panic and anger. In a blow-up, May tells the group to leave, severing ties for the moment, while T.K. stays to comfort her.

May's son eventually returns home and reveals that he had gone to see his father by bus. He explains that his father used him to get drugs, leaving May stunned as she faces the reality of her child's addiction. The revelation strengthens her resolve to protect him and confront the painful truth.

Esperanza goes to her ex's car dealership to challenge his undermining behavior and threatens to pursue more child support through the courts. The confrontation marks a turning point in asserting boundaries and demanding accountability. She walks away with renewed determination to defend her daughter's welfare.

By the end, all five women reconcile with their children, and May decides to join the others at the school dance. The Single Mom's Club is back on, stronger for having weathered conflict and heartbreak. They commit to staying connected and supporting one another going forward.
