In the latest episode of The Bold Type, Kat and Sutton tackle new projects at work while Jane thinks about motherhood. Here’s everything you need to know.

Following last week’s thoughtful debate on gun ownership, The Bold Type continues to traverse the hard-hitting territory that most millennial dramas don’t. You wouldn’t expect a Sex and the City-esque series about three young women navigating life and love in New York City to explore sexual assault and the Second Amendment within an episode of each other, but alas, The Bold Type contains important multitudes. This week, Jane confronts motherhood and her BRCA gene, urgent discussions pertaining to women’s reproductive health.

You might remember The CW’s 90210 reboot touching on the BRCA gene and motherhood in its final season, but if you don’t, that’s totally understandable. Surely, The Bold Type will elevate Silver’s struggle with her health and future as Jane finds herself wondering the same questions about hers. After an intimate mishap with Ben (a pregnancy scare, perhaps?), Jane ponders her potential for motherhood considering her BRCA gene mutation. Elsewhere, Sutton steps out on her own with her first major decision in the fashion department, and Kat pursues the chance to become to spokeswoman of a beauty brand.
