This is the first episode to pass the Bechdel test. The director’s daughter “Irving” and “Diane” have dialog together that is not focused around men. When they are first introduced to each other with “Kelsey” who is the director, “Irving” is sassy and has the attitude of a typical teenager then “Diane” replies with something along the lines “alright come along with me” because she is given the duty to take care of her daughter for the day. Of course, “Diane” has some struggles throughout the day, but there is a stereotypical happy ending once the episode is over. Even though the dialog between the characters of “Diane”, “Irving”, and “Kelsey” wasn’t the most significant dialogue, it still did not reference any men or have any men intervene. The series does a good job of showing relatively equal gender representation, especially with this episode because the majority of the main characters are female.
