Good Luck, Bad Luck - Two Broke Girls Synopsis "And The Pearl Necklace"

Last season, the girls stalked Martha Stewart at the Met Gala to impress her of Max's home made cupcakes. Max has been waiting for Martha Stewart's call since the gala and has been anxious ever since. She tries calling her office, pretending to be Michelle Obama, Mick Jagger, Alicia Keys and STEVE JOBS, just so she can talk to her. Caroline confiscates Max's phone so she can stop dialling her. Turns out, Martha's the first person to have appreciated her cupcakes. Caroline assures Max that with or without Martha, they're still gonna make it because of Max's talents and Caroline's vision, gut feeling and her lucky pearls.

Caroline's pearl necklace suddenly snaps, causing a frenzy at home. Some of the pearls got into the cupcake batter. As they scamper on the floor to retrieve the pearls, Chestnut comes in and licks the batter, probably eating some of the pearls. Caroline thinks that her luck is starting to turn for the worse because of it.

Caroline feels naked and has lost her identity without her pearls. Max tells her that it's not luck that makes them but work. She's planning to drop in at Martha's place to send her cup cakes and convince her to put them on her show. Han comes in to show drop a bomb on them, telling them that Sprinkles Cupcakes will be putting up a cupcake ATM in almost everywhere, screwing them out of their cupcake dreams.

Han announces to everyone that he's going to digitize the diner, changing the whole system at work. Max and Earl are not pretty pleased about it and tells Han about it. However, Han is adamant because he wants to take his diner to "the future".

Oleg hands Sophie a gift and she sees a pair of toothbrushes in it. She was a bit confused and thought it's for sex, until he declares that he'll be leaving it at her place, thinking they are already exclusive. Sophie laughs about it, assuming it was a joke. Oleg was pretty pissed about it.

Oleg calls a prettier and sexier version of Sophie. A Polish woman comes in and a jealous Sophie immediately stops her from coming in any further inside the diner. She threatens her to stay away from Oleg, scaring her away. Caroline tells Sophie to just admit to Oleg of her feelings. She says that she doesn't have feelings for him. It's just that from where she's from, she doesn't throw ANYTHING away.

The girls go to Martha's and notice at the lobby that the cupcake ATMs are now starting to spread out. Caroline was so bummed upon seeing how enticingly cute it looks like, that Max thought of messing it up with a can of spray paint. Caroline stops her.

At the lobby of Martha's office, the girls explain to the receptionist how they met Martha. The receptionist sarcastically answers them, thinking that the girls may just be pretending to have met her and she wouldn't let them in. Max tells her then the story on how they cornered her in the ladies room so she can taste Max's cupcake and her speech about their "entrepreneurial drive". The receptionist was convinced that she'd send the cupcakes to Martha for them. Caroline hands her one of their cupcakes. Unfortunately, she bites on one of the pearls that dropped on the cupcake batter and they got kicked out of Martha's office instead. Caroline's too bummed, she sprayed on paint to the cupcake ATM.

Outside, Max spots Martha Stewart, whose about to step into her car. She rushes towards her with her cupcakes, but gets hit by a cab. She's fine, but the cupcakes aren't.

Han tries to teach them how to use the order system touchpad but Earl is not too keen on technology, while Max doesn't really wanna use it. At the end of a work night, Han comes in to let them know that he'll be starting to use the order system touchpad. Suddenly, the power's out. Earl says it might be good luck. Speaking of luck, Max hands Caroline her the pearls from her snapped necklace. Caroline admits that the reason why she thinks those pearls have been a good luck charm to her is because she was wearing it the day they met.

The episode ends with Caroline getting a message from Martha Stewart saying, "Haven't forgotten about you girls. --Martha Stewart"

Han: (checking the extension cord, full of plugs) O, this thing has been plugged more than the Kardashian sisters.

Caroline: (noticing the cupcake ATM) Oh no! I was hoping it'd be ugly, but it's pink and really cute. It's like a gay R2D2... well, a gayer R2D2.

Woman: Oh? And who are you?
Sophie: I'm the last person you will see before you learn how to walk again... Stay away from Oleg or I'll pull your intestines out through your nose and give them to her to wear as new necklace.
