Hannah Horvath(Lena Dunham) lands a writing gig for a magazine run byChelsea Perettiin the latest trailer for the final season ofGirls, debuting on HBO Sunday, February 12 at 10 PM ET. Hannah tells Peretti’s new character that she thinks she’d be a great fit for this magazine, because she doesn’t “give a s–t about anything”, yet she “simultaneously has opinions about everything.” This writing job involves Hannah writing a piece about surfing, which she can’t wait to ‘dive’ into, despite a number of seemingly contradictory opinions about sand, fun, and more related to the job.
The trailer debuted on HBO’s YouTube today, which also features a number of characters presumably reading Hannah’s work in what looks to be a newspaper, not a magazine. Meanwhile, Marnie (Allison Williams) is still with Ray (Alex Karpovsky), although she’s cheating on him with Desi (Ebon Moss-Bachrach), Shoshanna (Zosia Mamet) longs for a real job and a much nicer purse, and Adam (Adam Driver) and Jessa (Jemima Kirke) are still making out, which causes some tension between Jessa and Elijah (Andrew Rannells).
