When you're getting divorced from the man of your nightmares,Nazayaj Rishtey (2025) Hindi Web Series the only logical course of action is to celebrate with your besties -- and when your besties are the dysfunctional deviants of You're the Worst, there's a 90 percent chance that said celebration will be a total trainwreck (albeit a trainwreck with great booze and decorations).
The Oct. 18 episode of FXX's fan-favorite comedy sees Gretchen (Aya Cash) promising to throw Lindsay (Kether Donohue) a divorce party for the ages to celebrate her freedom from Paul (Allan McLeod) -- although, naturally, it's long-suffering Edgar (Desmin Borges) who ends up doing most of the heavy lifting.
And if you're divorced, the recipient of a bad breakup, or just a person with a suitably dark sense of humor, you're definitely gonna have party envy when you see the spread for this shindig -- even if the guest list leaves a little to be desired.
We spoke to writer and supervising producer Alison Bennett to find out exactly what you need to throw your own rockin' divorce party (or just a rad You're the Worstwatch party, TBH), that will make you the envy of all your exes.
It should come as no surprise that divorce parties are a real thing, and Bennett says she drew on her own life experiences for inspiration when writing the episode.
"I got divorced about two years ago and I did not have a party, but friends definitely were sending me links to some of these products that were featured in the episode. I was actually planning my wedding to my second husband while writing the episode, so between the research of planning a wedding and also having got divorced, I kind of fused those together, threw a little Pinterest in there and that's how the divorce party was born."
Customized cake toppers featuring the bride and groom's likenesses are available online (decapitation optional, probably), and Bennett says a banner declaring "I do, I did, I'm done," was a Pinterest find.
"'Cause I figured Lindsay's not a genius by any stretch of the imagination, so she definitely would be offering ideas that she would have seen other women execute on the internet," she explains. "Lindsay's probably one of those people that would end up on one of those Pinterest Fail blogs."
Every good party needs a signature cocktail, and Lindsay's divorce bash gives us the Mezcalimony, which was apparently the brainchild of writer Shane Kosakowski.
"He's a master of both drinking and puns. When we were riffing on the episode before I went to script it, he just dropped Mezcalimony and we all lost our minds because the You're The Worst writers' room, we're all big fans of Mezcal."
The recipe calls for Mezcal (natch), lime juice, watermelon juice, ginger, honey and chili, but "be careful -- if you fall in love with this drink, you'll end up paying for it later," as the sign warns. (Yes, you'll be pleased to know that the writers tested it out to make sure it was up to their high standards -- for science, obviously.)
"What's better than Mezcal and drinking and also getting money from somebody else?" Bennett points out. "That's great. That's a combination of heaven."
When it comes to divorce party essentials, "The top pick is the hot dress," Bennett says. "Just in case your ex does show up, so you can be like, 'Look how good I'm having it now.'" Lindsay pairs a low-cut mullet dress with a black veil, fishnets and cat ears, because we all know that hot dresses are her specialty.
What's essential to any party? "Lots of girlfriends, who will protect you from making bad rebound hook ups, orencourage you to go in that direction," Bennett suggests. "Just surround yourself with a lot of supportive women, and a couple of hot dummies who maybe you can hook up with."
Bennett previews that Lindsay's divorce party is one small step on a much longer journey of self-discovery in Season 4, although it'll clearly be a winding road.
"I think by having this renewed sense of independence and getting to have a job and her own place -- even though Gretchen's there farting up the couch for three months of it -- she is on this self-reflective path and she realizes something's not working," Bennett says.
"I think Lindsay is going on a journey of taking responsibility and realizing that she's doing things that kind of bring the bad luck into her life that's not actually bad luck, it's choices. Also, finding out how she got there: What were her life experiences that made her into a person who is doing coke off their kids or whatever? She's making those steps to figure it out, which I think is really beautiful and nice because all the other characters have gone through some self exploration over the years, and it's nice to see them be that deep with her history."
In other words, in trueYou're the Worstfashion, the light at the end of Lindsay's tunnel could be self-actualization, or it could be an oncoming train; either way, we know it'll be fun (and scarily relatable) to watch.
You're the Worstairs Wednesdays at 10 p.m. on FXX.
