Dynasty (2017) s04e10 Episode Script
I Hate to Spoil Your Memories
1
Previously onYou slept with Fletcher.
And I feel awful about it, okay?
I keep avoiding Fletcher,
I keep avoiding Ryan.
It's terrible.
Oliver?
Who?
My ex from back in Australia.
You were right to
leave. I took you
down a dangerous path.
I need to find the truth out
about my father.
I think he was murdered.
I've already tracked down a lead
who can get me closer
to the truth.
I really don't want you
to do this.
But it's something I need
to do, Fallon.
The mass is a stage 4
glioblastoma.
So what do I do now?
I think the time has come for
you to tell the people you love.
That was amazing.
You know, we should start
our own race team.
What? I don't have to drive,
but I did take those turns
pretty smooth, huh?
I had a feeling you'd
love driving in circles
as fast as you could
with no traffic.
I have a whole list of
things planned for us.
Yeah? Like what?
-My heart can't take it.
-Mm-hmm.
Well, some adventures will
be of a different kind.
Not that I'm complaining,
but what exactly
has gotten into you?
Hospital chief of staff
taking the day off?
Going in late.
Waiting for Kirby to come back
from her night shoot.
Did I just hear
you went auto racing?
Yeah. Cristal bought out
the speedway just for me.
Although her foot
was a little heavier
on the pedal
than mine was.
Wow, that sounds like
a lot of excitement
for such an early hour.
Well, it's never too early
to start creating new memories.
Seems a little unsafe, though.
Blake, would you go
start a bath for us?
Lots of bubbles.
Mm-hmm.
I'll grab the strawberries
and champagne.
I love creating new memories.
Are you insane?
You've already passed out.
What if you fainted
-at a hundred miles an hour?
-Well, I didn't.
Look,
a surgery that probably ends
with me dying on the table
or chemo that makes me sick
and I still end up dying.
So I'm going with
live life to the fullest
in the short time I have left.
How you feeling?
That was a long night of work.
I can't believe how
exhausted I am.
I used to make fun of models
who complained about their
jobs being difficult, but
I take back every nasty thought.
And it's not over yet.
We still got to go
to the Cherie Belle party
for their Bellini breakfast.
What? I can't go to a party.
You have to.
You can't miss a chance
to meet Nisha Lockhart.
-I can't?
-She's the head of the company
and personally picking the face
for their next perfume campaign,
and she can't pick this face
unless it's right
in front of her.
She's specifically looking for
new talent to shake things up.
Unless this isn't
something you're into.
No, I am. I-I know I have
to do whatever it takes
if I want this
career, I just
wish that staying awake
wasn't what it took right now.
It's gonna take
more than staying awake.
Nisha is a perfectionist.
You have to be on.
I'd offer you something
to get you through it,
but you did say
that was a one-time thing.
Okay.
Just to get through the party.
And get this job.
Okay, so I had to drive
to three different bakeries
and one café, but I finally
found your favorite,
a low-fat cran-blueberry muffin
with oat flakes.
What are you doing here?
Did you not just hear my whole
muffin story?
I just thought that we haven't
been seeing each other enough,
or at all, so, uh, I wanted
to surprise you with breakfast
before I have to go to class.
Is this not
your favorite muffin?
-Uh, no, no, it is. Totally.
-Okay.
It's so sweet of you.
It's just, um
you know, there are a lot
of muffins out there,
and, uh, sometimes it gets
confusing, and you, um,
you try an old one
every once in a while.
Uh, okay.
I-I'm sorry, I'm just, uh,
I'm just really stressed
right now because I have a
I have a meeting
with the Infinity Team later,
and you know I have to get
in the right headspace.
I'm so proud of how hard
you're working
for this expansion deal.
I just wish I was finished
with contract classes
so I could help with it.
Yeah, I think it's best
if you stay out of it.
I was, I was joking.
-Oh.
-Um, but, hey,
maybe we can, uh,
we can grab a quick dinner later
before I have to study
for midterms?
-Yeah, sure. Mm-hmm.
-Yeah?
-I'll see you.
-See you.
Hey. Excuse me.
Good morning.
How long have you been lurking?
I'm not lurking.
I just got here.
For you.
Good news.
Blaine is almost ready to close.
Mm.
Uh, but we-we still have a
personal question on the table.
I told you I wanted to be
with you, you told me
you had a boyfriend,
and then we slept together.
And since then,
you've clearly been avoiding me.
Uh, yeah, I'm-I'm sorry.
No, I get it, you got a lot
on your plate with this deal.
But we are gonna need to have
a real talk.
Sometime soon, okay?
All right.
See you.
Oh. Hi.
I thought you'd be at work.
I thought you'd be home
-hours ago.
-I'm sorry.
The shoot went late and then we
had to go to a work party after.
I assume the "we" you're
referring to is you and Oliver?
Yes. Because
he's the photographer.
Trust me, it
was more work
than party, like your hospital
cocktail thingy tomorrow night.
Good. I'm glad you hadn't
forgotten about that.
Of course not.
I'll be there with bells on.
Well, maybe skip
the literal bells.
Your loss.
Oh, Oliver is coming over later
with some outfits for me to try
on before tonight's shoot.
I hope that's okay.
Yeah, it's fine.
I'm not trying to derail
your career.
Hey.
I came as soon
as I could.
What's wrong?
Well, my assistant Amir
was going over
our SEC disclosure information--
say hi, Amir--
and he found a, uh,
a private photo that I emailed
to Liam from my work email.
So I just need you
to scrub our servers
so nobody else,
you know, runs into that
before my IPO launch.
What? That's the emergency?
Don't you have an I.T. team?
Yes, but, you know,
I'm the boss.
I don't want anybody else
to see it.
Plus, you're my cousin.
And you've already
seen me naked.
Oh, don't worry, it's
before we knew we were cousins,
so it's okay.
Will you help me?
Sure. 'Cause I got
nothing else to do.
Go, go, go, go.
Hello and welcome to your future
with Fallon Unlimited.
We are one of the world's
leading media companies,
and we are only
getting brighter.
With a board of directors
filled with stars.
Fallon.
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry.
I'm just practicing my pitch
ahead of the IPO road show.
Yeah, does it have to be
right now?
Well, I wanted you to hear it
before I officially offer you
a seat
on our board of directors.
Amir is it?
Yeah, could you turn that off?
I feel, like,
a migraine coming on.
Though that may not be
from the light show.
Listen, with all the hype
surrounding the IPO launch,
everybody wants a seat.
It's like musical chairs
with benefits.
Round and round we go.
Are you done with this metaphor?
For the moment.
The point is,
I need somebody on this board
who I can trust,
who represents
a different industry
and who brings great PR.
That is Jeff Colby.
And trust me, you
do not want to be
the last one standing
when the music stops.
Okay, now I'm done.
Thank you,
but not interested.
Okay, okay. Hardball. I like it.
That's exactly the type
of strength I am looking for
in a board member.
You never give up.
It's like we're back in high
school when you convinced me
to audition for that play
even though I kept saying no.
Aw. Little Shop of Horrors.
I was so great as Audrey.
And you killed it, too,
if I remember correctly.
I was puppeteering the plant.
Look, Fallon,
I'm flattered by the offer,
but I'm trying to find
my own next big thing right now,
and this isn't it.
Okay. Agree to disagree for now.
What's that face? What's wrong?
Um, you need to see this.
Well, I know it's not
a naked photo of me
because I made that up
just to get you here.
It looks like a cyberattack
has been siphoning
your company's financial
information and emails.
What, like,
internal correspondence?
Customer data, too.
Oh, no. Well, if this leaks,
then our stock will tank
before it even hits the market.
Somebody needs
to fix this.
And by "somebody,"
I mean you and me.
And when you say "you and me,"
you really mean me?
Exactly. Yes.
I hope this doesn't affect your
decision to join the board.
One problem at a time.
Oh, where exactly are we going
to create these memories?
First stop,
France.
But that's all I'll say.
And unlike this morning
with the car, you're not getting
a chance to fly the plane.
Well, that's a shame,
I took flying lessons
when I was younger.
You do know
that at some point,
I'm gonna actually
have to go back to work.
There are some advantages
to being father of the boss.
Don't worry,
you'll be free soon.
But for now,
let's just enjoy being together.
Okay, I put a patch
on the source code
of your security software so
the hackers can't get back in.
-Great.
-It'll hold,
but you need to contact the FBI
and hire a cybersecurity firm
to catch whoever did this.
Less great. Do you know
what new investors
don't like to hear?
"The FBI has been called in
due to a major security breach."
No FBI,
no outside firms
until after the IPO.
Can't you just do it?
Fallon, when I said
I was looking
for my next big thing,
I didn't mean becoming
your I.T. guy.
Well, you can't abandon me now.
Please?
Okay, well
I can't pinpoint where
the hack originated,
but this is definitely
an internal breach.
Anyone working here
have, uh, issues with you?
No, of course not.
I mean, my employees are
like family.
I'll make a list.
You get me a polygraph machine.
Everything is going smoothly,
Alexis.
It's time to turn it up a notch.
Oh, speak of the devil.
Gotta go.
You must be Adam.
G'day. I'm Oliver.
Ah
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Wonderful to meet you.
Where's Kirby?
Up in her room, trying on
the clothes I brought over.
Tell me, is it normal
for a photographer
to come to the model's house
-and help her dress?
-Not really.
Kirby's special. The two of us
work so well together.
Because of our history.
It's like this
natural chemistry.
We can talk without speaking.
Mm, maybe you and I
should try that.
Kirby didn't tell me
how funny you are.
You should come by
the shoot tonight.
Like at 11:00. You can
catch her in action.
She is phenomenal.
Speaking of phenomenal.
Oh, what are you doing home?
I brought you food.
Sorry, I completely forgot
that you had a fitting.
What's he doing in this house?
Daddy. Oliver
There's a name I thought
I'd never have to hear again,
attached to a face I hoped
I'd never have to see again.
Hey, Joe, so nice
to see you.
Don't worry, I was just
about to leave anyway.
The country, hopefully.
You have no idea.
Guess I should
leave as well.
I have to prepare for
this meet and greet tomorrow.
After you
Ollie.
This is the most beautiful thing
I've ever seen.
I see something more beautiful.
How did you finagle
a private meal
after hours at the Louvre?
A woman never tells
her secrets.
You two have the same
mischievous smile.
I will always remember
this moment.
Exactly the point.
I can't believe I've only
been here once before.
I've really been missing out.
How come you're not eating?
This food is amazing.
I can't. My
My stomach feels like
it's doing backflips.
Look, we need to talk.
The other night, I
-What?
-What's wrong?
It's Flet-- Uh, my contact
at the Infinity Team.
The deal's about to
get torpedoed,
and he wants me to
come discuss strategy.
I know this is supposed
to be our night, but No, no.
Go, go, go. You're-you're
so close to the finish line.
Thank you.
Great.
Great. Can you give me
a bit more attitude?
Like, think about the time
we were gonna go to a nightclub
in Cannes,
and I never showed up.
There it is.
Perfect. Yes.
Wait right here.
Okay.
I think we need to make
a few adjustments here.
What's wrong?
Well, Nisha said
she wants this to feel like
an industrial take
on Wuthering Heights.
Crazy, sexy and romantic.
Well, you're great.
He's not exactly Heathcliff.
Okay, watch.
I want it to look like you two
are actually in love.
Kirby, put your hand
on my shoulder.
And you, don't be so
delicate with her, okay?
Grab her thigh, like that.
I haven't read
Wuthering Heights,
but clearly I'm going to.
What was that?
Nothing.
Everything's perfect.
Let's get back to it.
Give me that
Yes, that's what
I'm talking about.
Look at each other.
You're in love.
In love.
Beautiful.
We'll be on the ground
in Atlanta in 15 minutes.
I had a wonderful trip.
Well, why are you crying?
I just
I wish I could freeze this
moment in time forever.
Well, we're not done
making memories, right?
Not even close.
Yeah.
I have a long list of
things still to do.
Well, we don't have to make
all of our new memories
in just two days, do we?
I feel mildly guilty
that I spent tonight
in Paris
when Fallon needs me here.
I should go in.
Of course.
It's just
we screwed up
so much last year.
We got married in jail.
We broke our vows
to each other.
It's important to me that we
replace those bad memories
with new ones.
We will.
For the rest of our lives.
There's no need to rush.
Right.
Thank you very much
for the information.
Kirby
Before you say anything,
I would just like
to point out that
Oliver and I are not
dating again.
That's a small relief.
He's a photographer
and I'm a model.
And I'm very proud of
how hard you're working.
Then why are you yelling at me?
I didn't raise my voice.
But you're thinking things
in a loud voice,
I can tell.
That's just your imagination.
However, if I were
to say something I was thinking,
it would probably be
that I found out that
Oliver left his job
-in Australia to come here.
-So?
He got offered a better one.
Yeah, but he didn't
complete his job first,
then he moved out
without giving notice,
leaving his furniture.
-Why the hurry?
-I don't know.
And I don't care.
Well, perhaps you should care
about how much time
you're spending with someone
who led you down
a bad path before.
Again, I'm not
saying anything,
just thinking.
-Is your name Tessa?
-Yes.
And you've worked
-at the company for six months?
-Yes.
And why are you intent
on destroying my company?
That's not a yes or no question.
That's not an answer.
Do you have
unresolved issues with me?
No.
No, I don't think so.
Did you betray me?
What are you talking about?
Why am I wearing these?
I thought you called me in
to review the hacked financials.
Oh, I did, but this
sounded more fun.
Also, there are questions
about my childhood
that I need answered, so
you might want to settle in.
I can't wait to see the proofs.
I'm so excited.
The SD card in my camera
was corrupted,
-and pictures were deleted.
-What?! All of them?
No, I have the first third.
I can just send those
to Nisha.
No way. I hadn't
warmed up yet.
You said I was too stiff.
Remember?
You can't send any of those
to the head of the company.
Well, we could do
a quick reshoot.
Now?
I'm supposed to go to Adam's
hospital thing in an hour.
Don't worry, the pictures
are fine.
"Fine" isn't good enough
for Nisha.
You said she's a perfectionist.
-Can we go back to set?
-Of course, but
what about Adam?
I'll just be a little bit late.
This is important.
He'll understand.
Everything's terrible.
Not everything.
This sandwich is great.
Really?
That's a relief.
I just, uh, added it to the
menu, and I was won-- What?
Can we please talk
about the sandwich later?
Sure, if we have to.
Last night, Fletcher told me
that Blaine,
the head of the Infinity Team,
thinks that I'm a pushover.
And he's going to strong-arm me
into giving him
a bigger cut of the deal,
or he's going to walk.
What kind of a name is Blaine?
Wait, go back.
You were with Fletcher?
The same Fletcher
that you told me
you slept with the other night?
Yes, but I wasn't
with him with him.
It was a work emergency.
So you still haven't told
Ryan you cheated on him?
Does that mean
you chose Fletcher?
Ryan has midterms.
And I don't want
to upset him before that.
And I haven't "chosen" anyone.
But that's not what we're
-talking about right now.
-Right.
Blaine.
This guy probably thinks
he can trample on your deal
because you're
relatively new at this
and he's got
a whole team of experts.
So, what do you say if I go
with you to your next meeting?
I can be your crew.
Do two people make a crew?
They do when it's the two of us.
I can just be
there as your
silent partner. So
what do we know
about this Blaine guy?
Well, Fletcher told me
that he's gay
and he once asked Fletcher out,
which is not that helpful.
But he also likes to bluff.
Though sometimes it can seem
like he's bluffing but he's not.
That's why it's called a bluff.
Whew.
This is a good thing
I'm coming with you.
Well, the good news is that
hackers didn't get
any financial information
that could really hurt you.
And the bad news?
This company spends
a fortune on air travel.
Really?
That's what we're talking about
after a giant hack
that could expose our customers
-to identity theft or worse?
-Yes.
If the amount got out,
it would be
a publicity nightmare
before the IPO.
Investors hate
exorbitant expenses.
They want a lean company,
nothing flashy.
Sometimes I need to get
from one place to another.
And that will never be
flying commercial.
Which is why
we should invest
in a private airline.
I know we've got a lot of other
things to worry about right now,
but you should pull the trigger
on that when you're ready.
Okay, well, let's put that
on the back burner
until after the IPO.
Hey, did, uh, anyone fail
the lie detector test?
Only you when you when you said
you were too busy
to come to my fifth
birthday party, but
-not everybody's taken it yet.
-Whoa, whoa!
Hey! Whoa! Whoa!
I'm so sorry, sir!
Let me get something
to clean that up.
How'd that guy do?
Amir? Well, he
hasn't taken it yet.
He's only been here,
like, five minutes.
How could he possibly have
a grudge against me already?
That's four minutes
longer than needed.
Um, Amir?
After you're done
cleaning that up,
what do you say
we hook you up to that polygraph
machine-- does that sound good?
Oh, yeah, sure.
I just have to pick up
my grandmother at the, uh
the airport.
Yeah.
Well, that wasn't
suspicious at all.
Well, how could he betray me?
Like I said, four minutes
longer than needed.
That's cute. Look, I
just need to get my hands
on an extra laptop and wire up
some hidden security cameras
to send me a direct feed
while recording,
and we can solve this problem
once and for all.
Do you know how to do
any of that?
No, but I know somebody
who'll be thrilled to do it.
You'll just have to put
your pettiness aside.
So there's no way
we can do this without him?
Or in the morning?
Jeff isn't going
anywhere.
What, is it past
your bedtime?
It's the jet lag.
Oh, that's right. I forgot
you gallivanted off to Paris.
Cristal may have gone a little
overboard in our adventuring.
But she really wants us
to make up
for our last year of mistakes.
When you slept
with my mother-in-law.
So unless you're starting
from scratch,
you will always have
that history.
Maybe we do need to start over.
I'm gonna go take care
of something.
Plus I would rather
not be in the same room
with the man
that tried to ruin my life.
Yeah, great to see you, too.
Feels nice to be able
to breathe clean air again.
Come on over. Picture's up.
How did you get Amir to go
into the office after-hours?
Oh, I told him he had to wait
for an overseas
package delivery.
I also casually mentioned
that I made a small change
to my IPO presentation
that involved
some groundbreaking news
meant for investors' eyes only.
So if he's the hacker,
he will not be able to resist
going through my computer, which
I conveniently left on my desk.
This sounds like an analog
solution to a digital problem.
Okay, but I've decided
it's not Amir.
I mean, look,
he loves his job.
He even painted my toenails
when my pedicurist canceled.
I think he might have
a tiny crush on me,
which could get
uncomfortable.
The only thing uncomfortable
is the image of that guy
being forced to
paint your toenails.
He doesn't have a
crush on you, Fallon,
h-he's nice because
you pay him.
Okay, well,
I still don't think it's him.
Do you know he majored in
computer science at MIT?
He easily has the technical
know-how to pull this off.
Oh, and look what
he's doing right now.
Oh, that can't be good.
60/40? That's not
what we agreed on.
It was an even 50/50.
That was a starting point.
We've reconsidered.
If you don't
like the terms,
we have no problem walking away.
We'll make it 60/40.
But La Mirage takes the
extra ten percent, or we walk.
Does your silent partner
not understand
how negotiating works?
He does.
Because he understands
that the hotel is the one
with the name, the reputation
and the client base.
There are a hundred groups
like you,
but there's only one of us.
Okay.
50/50, but a three-year
contract, guaranteed.
Two-year contract,
guaranteed.
We get free hotel rooms
whenever we want.
Free room for you
for two weeks a year.
Free access to the new club
for everyone else.
Deal. I'll have my guys draw
up the paperwork immediately
and they can bring 'em
to us to sign.
Uh, bring it to us where?
Can't we just do it here?
No. I always like to hit a club
to sign and celebrate a deal.
Fletch, you up for that?
Sounds good.
Count me out. All this
negotiating has gotten me tired.
Sam, a word?
I don't think you should
go out with Fletcher again
-before you talk to Ryan.
-I can't talk to Ryan tonight
because he's at home
studying for midterms, okay?
And you heard Blaine.
We have to go to the club,
sign and celebrate there.
It's his thing.
Besides, Blaine will be there
the whole time. We'll be fine.
Okay? I will call Ryan
first thing tomorrow.
I promise.
This is the most boring episode
of To Catch a Hacker
I have ever seen.
I mean, FaceTiming
his friend in Japan
to complain about
traffic at the airport?
Well, I guess he really was
picking up his grandmother.
Turn up the volume.
The package still isn't here.
I feel like she made a mistake.
Oh, I don't think so.
'Cause she's
somewhat terrifying.
I don't think
he's talking about me.
The last thing
I'm doing is calling her.
She wanted me to take
a lie detector test today.
I had to run out of there
to pick up my grandma
and I'm also stealing
office supplies.
How dare he?
It's the least I deserve
after that pedicure.
Oh, I'm shocked. He didn't
love painting your toenails.
Okay, well, you know,
I don't care.
Yeah, I'm tough
on my employees.
It makes them tougher
out in the world.
You know, this is just like
your group of girlfriends
in high school.
They didn't like doing half the
things you told them to, either.
Okay, that's, like,
the second time
you've brought up
high school in two days.
Do you have an issue?
Wait, hold on.
The servers are lit up.
There's hacking going on
right now.
I took the patch off to try
and catch Amir in the act.
I always knew it was him.
Except it's not.
I set up a trace, and the
signal is pinging all over.
Uh, Russia, China, Ukraine.
These guys are good.
Well, I guess my
analog solution
actually helped us eliminate
the paper clip thief.
The question is, if it's
not him, then who is it?
I thought about what
you said this morning,
about all the cruel things that
we did to each other last year.
And then Fallon said
something interesting.
She said that we couldn't
start over again.
But she's wrong.
-Right? We can.
-What do you mean?
And what's in that box?
Well, this is our new beginning.
We got married
in jail,
and maybe that wasn't
the best place to start.
So I had your personal shopper
pick this up
and deliver it right away.
How would you like
to renew our vows?
Create new memories
together starting today?
Can't you do this
any faster?
Fallon, things
would go faster
if you'd stop bossing
me around, okay?
You want me to paint
your toenails next?
Play an evil plant?
Maybe, uh, fix your hair?
Wh-What is wrong with my hair?
And more importantly,
what is wrong with you?
And why do you keep
talking about high school
like it was some
terrible experience?
We were friends.
Weren't we?
Or were you just scared of me
like you think
everyone else was?
We were friends.
But there were some conditions
on our friendship.
I wasn't
scared of you.
But I was scared of losing
the Carrington scholarship
if I upset you.
Hold on. I never treated you
like a scholarship kid.
We didn't even talk about it.
Yeah, we didn't have to.
We both knew I was only there
because of your family.
So I ended up
in that play
just so you wouldn't complain
to Blake about it.
I missed coding camp.
Okay, well, you should
probably thank me for that.
But what is going on? Why
are you bringing this up now?
'Cause you are still
trying to get everyone
to do exactly what you want.
Your employees are
terrified of you.
And-and I guess I'm a little
sensitive when it comes to you
trying to manipulate me
into taking a board seat.
So you just think
I'm a mean girl? Is that it?
Well, don't worry,
Because I don't want somebody
on my board
who's so sensitive anyway.
I already said no. Three times.
You know what? I'm done.
So good luck stopping
the hackers before
they release all your private
information to the world.
How nice of you to stop by.
Before you get angry
Right.
You're already angry.
I'm sorry I missed
the hospital meet and greet,
but something happened to the
files from last night's session
and-and we had to do
a last-minute reshoot.
-I really didn't have a choice.
-Yes, you did.
You knew how important
that was to me.
You okay?
Fine.
Kirby, come on, I'm a doctor.
I know the signs of drug abuse.
What are you talking about?
The shaky hands,
the dilated pupils,
that dewy glow
that's not makeup.
You got the coke sweats.
And your pulse is racing.
So, what?
Oliver's feeding you drugs now?
How much did you do?
Just enough
to keep up my energy
for my work.
It's not my fault
the files were corrupted
and we had to start over.
You never considered
that maybe he arranged that
so he could spend
more time with you?
Th-The guy couldn't keep
his hands off you.
What? When?
Last night.
I came by your shoot.
You were spying on me?
No, he invited me.
So you just came
and watched and just left?
I didn't want to make a scene.
But maybe I should have,
because he clearly
has other intentions.
I asked you to trust me.
And I'm trying, but this whole
modeling thing has changed you.
-You're out of control.
-I'm doing what I have to do
for my career.
Doing some coke and
a catalog shoot is not a career.
Screw you.
Ah. Hello, Joe.
I just got done photographing
your lovely daughter.
Did you pop by
to see the pictures,
or are you moonlighting
as housekeeping?
I don't know what
you're doing here,
but I do know I don't like you
near my daughter.
Last time you almost
killed yourself and her.
So why are you here?
I got a job and I ran into Kirby
here at the hotel.
She might believe that story,
but I don't.
My sources in Australia tell me
you left in quite a hurry.
The job was too good to pass up.
Yeah, seems so.
Your bank account seems
to be suddenly a lot fuller
than it should be
for just taking a few pictures.
Keep the hell
out of my bank account.
Same old Joseph Anders,
sticking his nose where
it doesn't belong.
Be careful.
That is one way to
get your nose broken.
I will figure out why
you're here.
I want you out of Atlanta,
permanently.
How much will it take?
I don't think
you could afford that.
-Try me.
-Yeah, here's the thing.
I already have a patron,
and she pays me handsomely.
I'm not looking for another.
Alexis.
Either change the sheets
or get out.
This isn't over.
I know you think
you're working hard,
but if you do not fix
this hack soon,
then I am gonna have
to come to the office,
and trust me, you do not want me
coming to the office.
I'm not trying to threaten you.
I know you're doing
the best you can.
I just need you to do it
a little faster.
Okay? Thank you.
Cristal, I've never experienced
love like the one we have.
Which is why I promise
to love and cherish you
for the rest
of our long lives together.
And I will do whatever it
takes to make you happy,
from now until
we're old and gray.
You have my heart.
Blake, if we had
all the time in the world,
I would spend each
and every moment with you.
And I promise
that I will do
whatever it takes,
to sacrifice whatever I have to,
to keep our love alive.
Wow. Private room.
I didn't realize this
was the kind of club
Blaine wanted to go to.
You've never been
to a strip club?
Oh, no. I have. A few times.
Hold on one sec.
Just gonna send a quick text.
Shorty,
let me rock your world ♪
Like making your toes curl
We pouring that champagne
We keeping them
bottles popping ♪
Put the phones down, fellas.
I don't want a record of
what's about to go on in here.
Huh? Yeah?
Ah
Did someone order
Here we go.
a private dance?
-Oh
Uh-oh.
Mm-hmm.
Yes.
Shaking and wiggling,
shake-shaking and wiggling ♪
Ow!
Greetings, gentlemen.
Y'all ready to have
some fun tonight?
How about a dance for the guy
that brought La Mirage
and the Infinity
together?
Yeah? Mm-hmm.
You know what? Maybe we
should get another guy.
This one looks like he's
not feeling very well.
Okay, Ryan, stop it.
Ryan, stop.
Stop!
Yo.
I can't let him dance for you
because he's my boyfriend Ryan.
And Fletcher isn't just
a guy that I work with.
Okay? He's my ex.
Who I slept with
the other night and
I didn't tell you.
And I swear I was going to,
but I didn't.
And I know it was wrong of me,
but it's not as wrong
as watching
my current boyfriend give
my ex-boyfriend a lap dance.
Okay?
I am so sorry.
He's just being
so judgmental.
I mean, he knows how
important this is to me,
but he's too busy
lecturing me to notice.
And he doesn't trust me.
He thinks there's
some sort of illicit thing
going on between me and you.
Between us? Well,
clearly he doesn't understand
the photographer-model
relationship.
And he thinks
you're a bad influence.
Well, would a bad influence
tell you
that he heard back from
Nisha Lockhart this morning,
and that she loved
the pictures from the reshoot?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, thank you.
Thank you so much
-for all of this.
-Of course.
I'm here for you.
And, look, forget about Adam
if he's gonna bring you down.
Ride this momentum.
We should celebrate.
Ooh, I know one way
to celebrate.
Do you have any more?
Are you sure?
Uh, we've done
a little for work,
now we deserve
a little for some fun.
Nisha's happy, so I'm happy.
Look, I know we may have made
some bad decisions last time,
but it's not gonna be
like that again.
We know better now, right?
Hey. Thanks for agreeing
to see me.
I was hoping maybe we could
finish that meal?
Though it would be more
breakfast than dinner, but
you get the point.
Just, uh, a
little nervous.
Yeah, sorry, I-I can't stay.
Look, I get it. Okay? I do.
I have to
apologize.
I, I thought I was making
some sort of decision
between you and Fletcher,
and then I saw you
in the same room, and I realized
that it's you
that I want, Ryan,
plain and simple.
Well, thank you for saying that.
And I know that I may have
screwed things up too much.
Okay, making you move
your whole life to Atlanta
and then doing this,
but I want you
I don't know, may-maybe
you can just forgive me
one day.
What if that day is today?
Look, um, I'm not saying
it's okay you cheated,
but I played a part
in this, too.
I've been so busy with school
and-and with work that I haven't
been giving you enough time.
I mean, I if I hadn't been
called to fill in last night,
I probably wouldn't have even
known that there was
something wrong between us.
I
haven't been paying attention
to you or-or to us.
It's not your fault.
Oh, I know.
But it's not
all your fault.
And I chose to move here
and I love my law school,
so I'm staying.
With me?
Sam, um
I-I think that
we both know
that the timing is wrong.
You're busy with your hotel,
I'm busy with school.
Maybe, uh,
who knows, one day
in the future, the stars will
align a little better for us.
Hey.
Yeah.
Who knows?
Okay.
I'll see you around, okay?
I've reviewed your charts
multiple times.
I'm not sure what else
you want me to do.
I want you to help me
find a new option
that doesn't involve dying.
You told me surgery
was a possibility.
The only way we can
go through with surgery
is if we shrink the tumor first,
and we're not having
any luck with that.
Maybe there's some kind
of experimental drug
or a clinical trial.
There's no guarantees.
I don't need
a guarantee.
I just need a chance.
I vowed to Blake to do
everything in my power
to keep our love alive.
I need you to help me do that.
Well? How'd it go?
Papers get signed?
Everything go smoothly?
Well, if by "smoothly" you
mean going to a strip club
where my boyfriend was about to
give my ex-boyfriend a lap dance
until I blurted out that I slept
with that ex-boyfriend, then,
yeah, pretty smooth.
And then you signed the papers?
The deal is dead.
Blaine fired Fletcher
for not disclosing that
we had a prior relationship,
and now Fletcher
won't speak to me,
which is actually fine,
because I finally realized
that I only want
-to be with Ryan.
-Great.
Who just broke up with me.
Maybe I should leave and come
back so we can start over.
Wait.
It's not your fault
that I just spent
the last 16 hours in hell,
it's just
I went from a hot love triangle
and a multimillion-dollar
expansion
to being single again,
with no business plan.
Actually,
I think I can help.
Well, you're not really my type.
You should be so lucky.
No, I meant as a
business partner.
A real one.
I could do the same thing the
Infinity Team was going to do.
We can buy our own club
and come up with
an even better plan to expand.
Would you really want
-to do that?
-The truth is,
I've been looking for
an investment in real estate,
and after seeing the way
you negotiated with Blaine,
I was pretty
impressed.
And I happen to know that Jeff
and Monica have been wanting
to unload the Colby Club
right next door.
Might be a sign.
We could expand the expansion.
I'm in.
I am not sorry for
being mean or scary
or for being tough on
you or my employees.
If this is your apology,
you should probably stop.
Look at page 26.
Go.
Think I'm having flashbacks.
I am sorry
for not having considered
what your life was like
back then.
Looking at that picture,
it made me realize
that I never put myself in your
shoes, or your plant costume.
Thank you.
And I know that
the Carrington scholarship
must have carried
a lot of pressure,
and I'm sorry if you ever
felt like I was using
that pressure to manipulate you.
So I am apologizing, but not
trying to
manipulate you
onto my board with that apology.
I like scary Fallon.
I always have.
You always go after
what you want and you know
how to get other people
to give it to you.
With the board,
I just
needed you to respect
my boundaries, as a friend.
I understand. And our
relationship is more important
to me than, you know,
me getting what I want.
Which doesn't sound like
something I would say,
but it is true.
Friends again?
We never stopped.
Good, because as a friend,
I couldn't resist
fixing your hacker problem.
I put a poison pill
into your system
before I left,
and when they tried
to hack back in,
it destroyed
all the stolen files
they had.
We may never know
who the hackers were,
but your information is safe.
Wow. So are we talking, like,
a-a real pill or is it?
Let's just say no and that'll
be that.
Okay.
But it was fun getting back
to my techie roots.
Now it's time to dream big.
And unlike
high school,
I don't have to hide
in a tree costume anymore.
Mm. Well, it was technically
a plant, but
What did you have in mind?
I'll let you know
when I figure it out.
Okay. Hey, in the meantime,
do you want to join
my I.T. team?
I'm kidding, I'm kidding,
but thank you
for taking care of this.
That's what old friends are for.
It's done. You're all set,
and it looks like
they have no idea
we were going after
Ridley's emails.
I phished him
using his wife's account.
Once he clicked the link,
I was in.
You should be able to see
everything he sends or receives.
Transfer's complete.
Pleasure doing business
with you.

Previously onYou slept with Fletcher.
And I feel awful about it, okay?
I keep avoiding Fletcher,
I keep avoiding Ryan.
It's terrible.
Oliver?
Who?
My ex from back in Australia.
You were right to
leave. I took you
down a dangerous path.
I need to find the truth out
about my father.
I think he was murdered.
I've already tracked down a lead
who can get me closer
to the truth.
I really don't want you
to do this.
But it's something I need
to do, Fallon.
The mass is a stage 4
glioblastoma.
So what do I do now?
I think the time has come for
you to tell the people you love.
That was amazing.
You know, we should start
our own race team.
What? I don't have to drive,
but I did take those turns
pretty smooth, huh?
I had a feeling you'd
love driving in circles
as fast as you could
with no traffic.
I have a whole list of
things planned for us.
Yeah? Like what?
-My heart can't take it.
-Mm-hmm.
Well, some adventures will
be of a different kind.
Not that I'm complaining,
but what exactly
has gotten into you?
Hospital chief of staff
taking the day off?
Going in late.
Waiting for Kirby to come back
from her night shoot.
Did I just hear
you went auto racing?
Yeah. Cristal bought out
the speedway just for me.
Although her foot
was a little heavier
on the pedal
than mine was.
Wow, that sounds like
a lot of excitement
for such an early hour.
Well, it's never too early
to start creating new memories.
Seems a little unsafe, though.
Blake, would you go
start a bath for us?
Lots of bubbles.
Mm-hmm.
I'll grab the strawberries
and champagne.
I love creating new memories.
Are you insane?
You've already passed out.
What if you fainted
-at a hundred miles an hour?
-Well, I didn't.
Look,
a surgery that probably ends
with me dying on the table
or chemo that makes me sick
and I still end up dying.
So I'm going with
live life to the fullest
in the short time I have left.
How you feeling?
That was a long night of work.
I can't believe how
exhausted I am.
I used to make fun of models
who complained about their
jobs being difficult, but
I take back every nasty thought.
And it's not over yet.
We still got to go
to the Cherie Belle party
for their Bellini breakfast.
What? I can't go to a party.
You have to.
You can't miss a chance
to meet Nisha Lockhart.
-I can't?
-She's the head of the company
and personally picking the face
for their next perfume campaign,
and she can't pick this face
unless it's right
in front of her.
She's specifically looking for
new talent to shake things up.
Unless this isn't
something you're into.
No, I am. I-I know I have
to do whatever it takes
if I want this
career, I just
wish that staying awake
wasn't what it took right now.
It's gonna take
more than staying awake.
Nisha is a perfectionist.
You have to be on.
I'd offer you something
to get you through it,
but you did say
that was a one-time thing.
Okay.
Just to get through the party.
And get this job.
Okay, so I had to drive
to three different bakeries
and one café, but I finally
found your favorite,
a low-fat cran-blueberry muffin
with oat flakes.
What are you doing here?
Did you not just hear my whole
muffin story?
I just thought that we haven't
been seeing each other enough,
or at all, so, uh, I wanted
to surprise you with breakfast
before I have to go to class.
Is this not
your favorite muffin?
-Uh, no, no, it is. Totally.
-Okay.
It's so sweet of you.
It's just, um
you know, there are a lot
of muffins out there,
and, uh, sometimes it gets
confusing, and you, um,
you try an old one
every once in a while.
Uh, okay.
I-I'm sorry, I'm just, uh,
I'm just really stressed
right now because I have a
I have a meeting
with the Infinity Team later,
and you know I have to get
in the right headspace.
I'm so proud of how hard
you're working
for this expansion deal.
I just wish I was finished
with contract classes
so I could help with it.
Yeah, I think it's best
if you stay out of it.
I was, I was joking.
-Oh.
-Um, but, hey,
maybe we can, uh,
we can grab a quick dinner later
before I have to study
for midterms?
-Yeah, sure. Mm-hmm.
-Yeah?
-I'll see you.
-See you.
Hey. Excuse me.
Good morning.
How long have you been lurking?
I'm not lurking.
I just got here.
For you.
Good news.
Blaine is almost ready to close.
Mm.
Uh, but we-we still have a
personal question on the table.
I told you I wanted to be
with you, you told me
you had a boyfriend,
and then we slept together.
And since then,
you've clearly been avoiding me.
Uh, yeah, I'm-I'm sorry.
No, I get it, you got a lot
on your plate with this deal.
But we are gonna need to have
a real talk.
Sometime soon, okay?
All right.
See you.
Oh. Hi.
I thought you'd be at work.
I thought you'd be home
-hours ago.
-I'm sorry.
The shoot went late and then we
had to go to a work party after.
I assume the "we" you're
referring to is you and Oliver?
Yes. Because
he's the photographer.
Trust me, it
was more work
than party, like your hospital
cocktail thingy tomorrow night.
Good. I'm glad you hadn't
forgotten about that.
Of course not.
I'll be there with bells on.
Well, maybe skip
the literal bells.
Your loss.
Oh, Oliver is coming over later
with some outfits for me to try
on before tonight's shoot.
I hope that's okay.
Yeah, it's fine.
I'm not trying to derail
your career.
Hey.
I came as soon
as I could.
What's wrong?
Well, my assistant Amir
was going over
our SEC disclosure information--
say hi, Amir--
and he found a, uh,
a private photo that I emailed
to Liam from my work email.
So I just need you
to scrub our servers
so nobody else,
you know, runs into that
before my IPO launch.
What? That's the emergency?
Don't you have an I.T. team?
Yes, but, you know,
I'm the boss.
I don't want anybody else
to see it.
Plus, you're my cousin.
And you've already
seen me naked.
Oh, don't worry, it's
before we knew we were cousins,
so it's okay.
Will you help me?
Sure. 'Cause I got
nothing else to do.
Go, go, go, go.
Hello and welcome to your future
with Fallon Unlimited.
We are one of the world's
leading media companies,
and we are only
getting brighter.
With a board of directors
filled with stars.
Fallon.
I'm sorry,
I'm sorry.
I'm just practicing my pitch
ahead of the IPO road show.
Yeah, does it have to be
right now?
Well, I wanted you to hear it
before I officially offer you
a seat
on our board of directors.
Amir is it?
Yeah, could you turn that off?
I feel, like,
a migraine coming on.
Though that may not be
from the light show.
Listen, with all the hype
surrounding the IPO launch,
everybody wants a seat.
It's like musical chairs
with benefits.
Round and round we go.
Are you done with this metaphor?
For the moment.
The point is,
I need somebody on this board
who I can trust,
who represents
a different industry
and who brings great PR.
That is Jeff Colby.
And trust me, you
do not want to be
the last one standing
when the music stops.
Okay, now I'm done.
Thank you,
but not interested.
Okay, okay. Hardball. I like it.
That's exactly the type
of strength I am looking for
in a board member.
You never give up.
It's like we're back in high
school when you convinced me
to audition for that play
even though I kept saying no.
Aw. Little Shop of Horrors.
I was so great as Audrey.
And you killed it, too,
if I remember correctly.
I was puppeteering the plant.
Look, Fallon,
I'm flattered by the offer,
but I'm trying to find
my own next big thing right now,
and this isn't it.
Okay. Agree to disagree for now.
What's that face? What's wrong?
Um, you need to see this.
Well, I know it's not
a naked photo of me
because I made that up
just to get you here.
It looks like a cyberattack
has been siphoning
your company's financial
information and emails.
What, like,
internal correspondence?
Customer data, too.
Oh, no. Well, if this leaks,
then our stock will tank
before it even hits the market.
Somebody needs
to fix this.
And by "somebody,"
I mean you and me.
And when you say "you and me,"
you really mean me?
Exactly. Yes.
I hope this doesn't affect your
decision to join the board.
One problem at a time.
Oh, where exactly are we going
to create these memories?
First stop,
France.
But that's all I'll say.
And unlike this morning
with the car, you're not getting
a chance to fly the plane.
Well, that's a shame,
I took flying lessons
when I was younger.
You do know
that at some point,
I'm gonna actually
have to go back to work.
There are some advantages
to being father of the boss.
Don't worry,
you'll be free soon.
But for now,
let's just enjoy being together.
Okay, I put a patch
on the source code
of your security software so
the hackers can't get back in.
-Great.
-It'll hold,
but you need to contact the FBI
and hire a cybersecurity firm
to catch whoever did this.
Less great. Do you know
what new investors
don't like to hear?
"The FBI has been called in
due to a major security breach."
No FBI,
no outside firms
until after the IPO.
Can't you just do it?
Fallon, when I said
I was looking
for my next big thing,
I didn't mean becoming
your I.T. guy.
Well, you can't abandon me now.
Please?
Okay, well
I can't pinpoint where
the hack originated,
but this is definitely
an internal breach.
Anyone working here
have, uh, issues with you?
No, of course not.
I mean, my employees are
like family.
I'll make a list.
You get me a polygraph machine.
Everything is going smoothly,
Alexis.
It's time to turn it up a notch.
Oh, speak of the devil.
Gotta go.
You must be Adam.
G'day. I'm Oliver.
Ah
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
Wonderful to meet you.
Where's Kirby?
Up in her room, trying on
the clothes I brought over.
Tell me, is it normal
for a photographer
to come to the model's house
-and help her dress?
-Not really.
Kirby's special. The two of us
work so well together.
Because of our history.
It's like this
natural chemistry.
We can talk without speaking.
Mm, maybe you and I
should try that.
Kirby didn't tell me
how funny you are.
You should come by
the shoot tonight.
Like at 11:00. You can
catch her in action.
She is phenomenal.
Speaking of phenomenal.
Oh, what are you doing home?
I brought you food.
Sorry, I completely forgot
that you had a fitting.
What's he doing in this house?
Daddy. Oliver
There's a name I thought
I'd never have to hear again,
attached to a face I hoped
I'd never have to see again.
Hey, Joe, so nice
to see you.
Don't worry, I was just
about to leave anyway.
The country, hopefully.
You have no idea.
Guess I should
leave as well.
I have to prepare for
this meet and greet tomorrow.
After you
Ollie.
This is the most beautiful thing
I've ever seen.
I see something more beautiful.
How did you finagle
a private meal
after hours at the Louvre?
A woman never tells
her secrets.
You two have the same
mischievous smile.
I will always remember
this moment.
Exactly the point.
I can't believe I've only
been here once before.
I've really been missing out.
How come you're not eating?
This food is amazing.
I can't. My
My stomach feels like
it's doing backflips.
Look, we need to talk.
The other night, I
-What?
-What's wrong?
It's Flet-- Uh, my contact
at the Infinity Team.
The deal's about to
get torpedoed,
and he wants me to
come discuss strategy.
I know this is supposed
to be our night, but No, no.
Go, go, go. You're-you're
so close to the finish line.
Thank you.
Great.
Great. Can you give me
a bit more attitude?
Like, think about the time
we were gonna go to a nightclub
in Cannes,
and I never showed up.
There it is.
Perfect. Yes.
Wait right here.
Okay.
I think we need to make
a few adjustments here.
What's wrong?
Well, Nisha said
she wants this to feel like
an industrial take
on Wuthering Heights.
Crazy, sexy and romantic.
Well, you're great.
He's not exactly Heathcliff.
Okay, watch.
I want it to look like you two
are actually in love.
Kirby, put your hand
on my shoulder.
And you, don't be so
delicate with her, okay?
Grab her thigh, like that.
I haven't read
Wuthering Heights,
but clearly I'm going to.
What was that?
Nothing.
Everything's perfect.
Let's get back to it.
Give me that
Yes, that's what
I'm talking about.
Look at each other.
You're in love.
In love.
Beautiful.
We'll be on the ground
in Atlanta in 15 minutes.
I had a wonderful trip.
Well, why are you crying?
I just
I wish I could freeze this
moment in time forever.
Well, we're not done
making memories, right?
Not even close.
Yeah.
I have a long list of
things still to do.
Well, we don't have to make
all of our new memories
in just two days, do we?
I feel mildly guilty
that I spent tonight
in Paris
when Fallon needs me here.
I should go in.
Of course.
It's just
we screwed up
so much last year.
We got married in jail.
We broke our vows
to each other.
It's important to me that we
replace those bad memories
with new ones.
We will.
For the rest of our lives.
There's no need to rush.
Right.
Thank you very much
for the information.
Kirby
Before you say anything,
I would just like
to point out that
Oliver and I are not
dating again.
That's a small relief.
He's a photographer
and I'm a model.
And I'm very proud of
how hard you're working.
Then why are you yelling at me?
I didn't raise my voice.
But you're thinking things
in a loud voice,
I can tell.
That's just your imagination.
However, if I were
to say something I was thinking,
it would probably be
that I found out that
Oliver left his job
-in Australia to come here.
-So?
He got offered a better one.
Yeah, but he didn't
complete his job first,
then he moved out
without giving notice,
leaving his furniture.
-Why the hurry?
-I don't know.
And I don't care.
Well, perhaps you should care
about how much time
you're spending with someone
who led you down
a bad path before.
Again, I'm not
saying anything,
just thinking.
-Is your name Tessa?
-Yes.
And you've worked
-at the company for six months?
-Yes.
And why are you intent
on destroying my company?
That's not a yes or no question.
That's not an answer.
Do you have
unresolved issues with me?
No.
No, I don't think so.
Did you betray me?
What are you talking about?
Why am I wearing these?
I thought you called me in
to review the hacked financials.
Oh, I did, but this
sounded more fun.
Also, there are questions
about my childhood
that I need answered, so
you might want to settle in.
I can't wait to see the proofs.
I'm so excited.
The SD card in my camera
was corrupted,
-and pictures were deleted.
-What?! All of them?
No, I have the first third.
I can just send those
to Nisha.
No way. I hadn't
warmed up yet.
You said I was too stiff.
Remember?
You can't send any of those
to the head of the company.
Well, we could do
a quick reshoot.
Now?
I'm supposed to go to Adam's
hospital thing in an hour.
Don't worry, the pictures
are fine.
"Fine" isn't good enough
for Nisha.
You said she's a perfectionist.
-Can we go back to set?
-Of course, but
what about Adam?
I'll just be a little bit late.
This is important.
He'll understand.
Everything's terrible.
Not everything.
This sandwich is great.
Really?
That's a relief.
I just, uh, added it to the
menu, and I was won-- What?
Can we please talk
about the sandwich later?
Sure, if we have to.
Last night, Fletcher told me
that Blaine,
the head of the Infinity Team,
thinks that I'm a pushover.
And he's going to strong-arm me
into giving him
a bigger cut of the deal,
or he's going to walk.
What kind of a name is Blaine?
Wait, go back.
You were with Fletcher?
The same Fletcher
that you told me
you slept with the other night?
Yes, but I wasn't
with him with him.
It was a work emergency.
So you still haven't told
Ryan you cheated on him?
Does that mean
you chose Fletcher?
Ryan has midterms.
And I don't want
to upset him before that.
And I haven't "chosen" anyone.
But that's not what we're
-talking about right now.
-Right.
Blaine.
This guy probably thinks
he can trample on your deal
because you're
relatively new at this
and he's got
a whole team of experts.
So, what do you say if I go
with you to your next meeting?
I can be your crew.
Do two people make a crew?
They do when it's the two of us.
I can just be
there as your
silent partner. So
what do we know
about this Blaine guy?
Well, Fletcher told me
that he's gay
and he once asked Fletcher out,
which is not that helpful.
But he also likes to bluff.
Though sometimes it can seem
like he's bluffing but he's not.
That's why it's called a bluff.
Whew.
This is a good thing
I'm coming with you.
Well, the good news is that
hackers didn't get
any financial information
that could really hurt you.
And the bad news?
This company spends
a fortune on air travel.
Really?
That's what we're talking about
after a giant hack
that could expose our customers
-to identity theft or worse?
-Yes.
If the amount got out,
it would be
a publicity nightmare
before the IPO.
Investors hate
exorbitant expenses.
They want a lean company,
nothing flashy.
Sometimes I need to get
from one place to another.
And that will never be
flying commercial.
Which is why
we should invest
in a private airline.
I know we've got a lot of other
things to worry about right now,
but you should pull the trigger
on that when you're ready.
Okay, well, let's put that
on the back burner
until after the IPO.
Hey, did, uh, anyone fail
the lie detector test?
Only you when you when you said
you were too busy
to come to my fifth
birthday party, but
-not everybody's taken it yet.
-Whoa, whoa!
Hey! Whoa! Whoa!
I'm so sorry, sir!
Let me get something
to clean that up.
How'd that guy do?
Amir? Well, he
hasn't taken it yet.
He's only been here,
like, five minutes.
How could he possibly have
a grudge against me already?
That's four minutes
longer than needed.
Um, Amir?
After you're done
cleaning that up,
what do you say
we hook you up to that polygraph
machine-- does that sound good?
Oh, yeah, sure.
I just have to pick up
my grandmother at the, uh
the airport.
Yeah.
Well, that wasn't
suspicious at all.
Well, how could he betray me?
Like I said, four minutes
longer than needed.
That's cute. Look, I
just need to get my hands
on an extra laptop and wire up
some hidden security cameras
to send me a direct feed
while recording,
and we can solve this problem
once and for all.
Do you know how to do
any of that?
No, but I know somebody
who'll be thrilled to do it.
You'll just have to put
your pettiness aside.
So there's no way
we can do this without him?
Or in the morning?
Jeff isn't going
anywhere.
What, is it past
your bedtime?
It's the jet lag.
Oh, that's right. I forgot
you gallivanted off to Paris.
Cristal may have gone a little
overboard in our adventuring.
But she really wants us
to make up
for our last year of mistakes.
When you slept
with my mother-in-law.
So unless you're starting
from scratch,
you will always have
that history.
Maybe we do need to start over.
I'm gonna go take care
of something.
Plus I would rather
not be in the same room
with the man
that tried to ruin my life.
Yeah, great to see you, too.
Feels nice to be able
to breathe clean air again.
Come on over. Picture's up.
How did you get Amir to go
into the office after-hours?
Oh, I told him he had to wait
for an overseas
package delivery.
I also casually mentioned
that I made a small change
to my IPO presentation
that involved
some groundbreaking news
meant for investors' eyes only.
So if he's the hacker,
he will not be able to resist
going through my computer, which
I conveniently left on my desk.
This sounds like an analog
solution to a digital problem.
Okay, but I've decided
it's not Amir.
I mean, look,
he loves his job.
He even painted my toenails
when my pedicurist canceled.
I think he might have
a tiny crush on me,
which could get
uncomfortable.
The only thing uncomfortable
is the image of that guy
being forced to
paint your toenails.
He doesn't have a
crush on you, Fallon,
h-he's nice because
you pay him.
Okay, well,
I still don't think it's him.
Do you know he majored in
computer science at MIT?
He easily has the technical
know-how to pull this off.
Oh, and look what
he's doing right now.
Oh, that can't be good.
60/40? That's not
what we agreed on.
It was an even 50/50.
That was a starting point.
We've reconsidered.
If you don't
like the terms,
we have no problem walking away.
We'll make it 60/40.
But La Mirage takes the
extra ten percent, or we walk.
Does your silent partner
not understand
how negotiating works?
He does.
Because he understands
that the hotel is the one
with the name, the reputation
and the client base.
There are a hundred groups
like you,
but there's only one of us.
Okay.
50/50, but a three-year
contract, guaranteed.
Two-year contract,
guaranteed.
We get free hotel rooms
whenever we want.
Free room for you
for two weeks a year.
Free access to the new club
for everyone else.
Deal. I'll have my guys draw
up the paperwork immediately
and they can bring 'em
to us to sign.
Uh, bring it to us where?
Can't we just do it here?
No. I always like to hit a club
to sign and celebrate a deal.
Fletch, you up for that?
Sounds good.
Count me out. All this
negotiating has gotten me tired.
Sam, a word?
I don't think you should
go out with Fletcher again
-before you talk to Ryan.
-I can't talk to Ryan tonight
because he's at home
studying for midterms, okay?
And you heard Blaine.
We have to go to the club,
sign and celebrate there.
It's his thing.
Besides, Blaine will be there
the whole time. We'll be fine.
Okay? I will call Ryan
first thing tomorrow.
I promise.
This is the most boring episode
of To Catch a Hacker
I have ever seen.
I mean, FaceTiming
his friend in Japan
to complain about
traffic at the airport?
Well, I guess he really was
picking up his grandmother.
Turn up the volume.
The package still isn't here.
I feel like she made a mistake.
Oh, I don't think so.
'Cause she's
somewhat terrifying.
I don't think
he's talking about me.
The last thing
I'm doing is calling her.
She wanted me to take
a lie detector test today.
I had to run out of there
to pick up my grandma
and I'm also stealing
office supplies.
How dare he?
It's the least I deserve
after that pedicure.
Oh, I'm shocked. He didn't
love painting your toenails.
Okay, well, you know,
I don't care.
Yeah, I'm tough
on my employees.
It makes them tougher
out in the world.
You know, this is just like
your group of girlfriends
in high school.
They didn't like doing half the
things you told them to, either.
Okay, that's, like,
the second time
you've brought up
high school in two days.
Do you have an issue?
Wait, hold on.
The servers are lit up.
There's hacking going on
right now.
I took the patch off to try
and catch Amir in the act.
I always knew it was him.
Except it's not.
I set up a trace, and the
signal is pinging all over.
Uh, Russia, China, Ukraine.
These guys are good.
Well, I guess my
analog solution
actually helped us eliminate
the paper clip thief.
The question is, if it's
not him, then who is it?
I thought about what
you said this morning,
about all the cruel things that
we did to each other last year.
And then Fallon said
something interesting.
She said that we couldn't
start over again.
But she's wrong.
-Right? We can.
-What do you mean?
And what's in that box?
Well, this is our new beginning.
We got married
in jail,
and maybe that wasn't
the best place to start.
So I had your personal shopper
pick this up
and deliver it right away.
How would you like
to renew our vows?
Create new memories
together starting today?
Can't you do this
any faster?
Fallon, things
would go faster
if you'd stop bossing
me around, okay?
You want me to paint
your toenails next?
Play an evil plant?
Maybe, uh, fix your hair?
Wh-What is wrong with my hair?
And more importantly,
what is wrong with you?
And why do you keep
talking about high school
like it was some
terrible experience?
We were friends.
Weren't we?
Or were you just scared of me
like you think
everyone else was?
We were friends.
But there were some conditions
on our friendship.
I wasn't
scared of you.
But I was scared of losing
the Carrington scholarship
if I upset you.
Hold on. I never treated you
like a scholarship kid.
We didn't even talk about it.
Yeah, we didn't have to.
We both knew I was only there
because of your family.
So I ended up
in that play
just so you wouldn't complain
to Blake about it.
I missed coding camp.
Okay, well, you should
probably thank me for that.
But what is going on? Why
are you bringing this up now?
'Cause you are still
trying to get everyone
to do exactly what you want.
Your employees are
terrified of you.
And-and I guess I'm a little
sensitive when it comes to you
trying to manipulate me
into taking a board seat.
So you just think
I'm a mean girl? Is that it?
Well, don't worry,
Because I don't want somebody
on my board
who's so sensitive anyway.
I already said no. Three times.
You know what? I'm done.
So good luck stopping
the hackers before
they release all your private
information to the world.
How nice of you to stop by.
Before you get angry
Right.
You're already angry.
I'm sorry I missed
the hospital meet and greet,
but something happened to the
files from last night's session
and-and we had to do
a last-minute reshoot.
-I really didn't have a choice.
-Yes, you did.
You knew how important
that was to me.
You okay?
Fine.
Kirby, come on, I'm a doctor.
I know the signs of drug abuse.
What are you talking about?
The shaky hands,
the dilated pupils,
that dewy glow
that's not makeup.
You got the coke sweats.
And your pulse is racing.
So, what?
Oliver's feeding you drugs now?
How much did you do?
Just enough
to keep up my energy
for my work.
It's not my fault
the files were corrupted
and we had to start over.
You never considered
that maybe he arranged that
so he could spend
more time with you?
Th-The guy couldn't keep
his hands off you.
What? When?
Last night.
I came by your shoot.
You were spying on me?
No, he invited me.
So you just came
and watched and just left?
I didn't want to make a scene.
But maybe I should have,
because he clearly
has other intentions.
I asked you to trust me.
And I'm trying, but this whole
modeling thing has changed you.
-You're out of control.
-I'm doing what I have to do
for my career.
Doing some coke and
a catalog shoot is not a career.
Screw you.
Ah. Hello, Joe.
I just got done photographing
your lovely daughter.
Did you pop by
to see the pictures,
or are you moonlighting
as housekeeping?
I don't know what
you're doing here,
but I do know I don't like you
near my daughter.
Last time you almost
killed yourself and her.
So why are you here?
I got a job and I ran into Kirby
here at the hotel.
She might believe that story,
but I don't.
My sources in Australia tell me
you left in quite a hurry.
The job was too good to pass up.
Yeah, seems so.
Your bank account seems
to be suddenly a lot fuller
than it should be
for just taking a few pictures.
Keep the hell
out of my bank account.
Same old Joseph Anders,
sticking his nose where
it doesn't belong.
Be careful.
That is one way to
get your nose broken.
I will figure out why
you're here.
I want you out of Atlanta,
permanently.
How much will it take?
I don't think
you could afford that.
-Try me.
-Yeah, here's the thing.
I already have a patron,
and she pays me handsomely.
I'm not looking for another.
Alexis.
Either change the sheets
or get out.
This isn't over.
I know you think
you're working hard,
but if you do not fix
this hack soon,
then I am gonna have
to come to the office,
and trust me, you do not want me
coming to the office.
I'm not trying to threaten you.
I know you're doing
the best you can.
I just need you to do it
a little faster.
Okay? Thank you.
Cristal, I've never experienced
love like the one we have.
Which is why I promise
to love and cherish you
for the rest
of our long lives together.
And I will do whatever it
takes to make you happy,
from now until
we're old and gray.
You have my heart.
Blake, if we had
all the time in the world,
I would spend each
and every moment with you.
And I promise
that I will do
whatever it takes,
to sacrifice whatever I have to,
to keep our love alive.
Wow. Private room.
I didn't realize this
was the kind of club
Blaine wanted to go to.
You've never been
to a strip club?
Oh, no. I have. A few times.
Hold on one sec.
Just gonna send a quick text.
Shorty,
let me rock your world ♪
Like making your toes curl
We pouring that champagne
We keeping them
bottles popping ♪
Put the phones down, fellas.
I don't want a record of
what's about to go on in here.
Huh? Yeah?
Ah
Did someone order
Here we go.
a private dance?
-Oh
Uh-oh.
Mm-hmm.
Yes.
Shaking and wiggling,
shake-shaking and wiggling ♪
Ow!
Greetings, gentlemen.
Y'all ready to have
some fun tonight?
How about a dance for the guy
that brought La Mirage
and the Infinity
together?
Yeah? Mm-hmm.
You know what? Maybe we
should get another guy.
This one looks like he's
not feeling very well.
Okay, Ryan, stop it.
Ryan, stop.
Stop!
Yo.
I can't let him dance for you
because he's my boyfriend Ryan.
And Fletcher isn't just
a guy that I work with.
Okay? He's my ex.
Who I slept with
the other night and
I didn't tell you.
And I swear I was going to,
but I didn't.
And I know it was wrong of me,
but it's not as wrong
as watching
my current boyfriend give
my ex-boyfriend a lap dance.
Okay?
I am so sorry.
He's just being
so judgmental.
I mean, he knows how
important this is to me,
but he's too busy
lecturing me to notice.
And he doesn't trust me.
He thinks there's
some sort of illicit thing
going on between me and you.
Between us? Well,
clearly he doesn't understand
the photographer-model
relationship.
And he thinks
you're a bad influence.
Well, would a bad influence
tell you
that he heard back from
Nisha Lockhart this morning,
and that she loved
the pictures from the reshoot?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, thank you.
Thank you so much
-for all of this.
-Of course.
I'm here for you.
And, look, forget about Adam
if he's gonna bring you down.
Ride this momentum.
We should celebrate.
Ooh, I know one way
to celebrate.
Do you have any more?
Are you sure?
Uh, we've done
a little for work,
now we deserve
a little for some fun.
Nisha's happy, so I'm happy.
Look, I know we may have made
some bad decisions last time,
but it's not gonna be
like that again.
We know better now, right?
Hey. Thanks for agreeing
to see me.
I was hoping maybe we could
finish that meal?
Though it would be more
breakfast than dinner, but
you get the point.
Just, uh, a
little nervous.
Yeah, sorry, I-I can't stay.
Look, I get it. Okay? I do.
I have to
apologize.
I, I thought I was making
some sort of decision
between you and Fletcher,
and then I saw you
in the same room, and I realized
that it's you
that I want, Ryan,
plain and simple.
Well, thank you for saying that.
And I know that I may have
screwed things up too much.
Okay, making you move
your whole life to Atlanta
and then doing this,
but I want you
I don't know, may-maybe
you can just forgive me
one day.
What if that day is today?
Look, um, I'm not saying
it's okay you cheated,
but I played a part
in this, too.
I've been so busy with school
and-and with work that I haven't
been giving you enough time.
I mean, I if I hadn't been
called to fill in last night,
I probably wouldn't have even
known that there was
something wrong between us.
I
haven't been paying attention
to you or-or to us.
It's not your fault.
Oh, I know.
But it's not
all your fault.
And I chose to move here
and I love my law school,
so I'm staying.
With me?
Sam, um
I-I think that
we both know
that the timing is wrong.
You're busy with your hotel,
I'm busy with school.
Maybe, uh,
who knows, one day
in the future, the stars will
align a little better for us.
Hey.
Yeah.
Who knows?
Okay.
I'll see you around, okay?
I've reviewed your charts
multiple times.
I'm not sure what else
you want me to do.
I want you to help me
find a new option
that doesn't involve dying.
You told me surgery
was a possibility.
The only way we can
go through with surgery
is if we shrink the tumor first,
and we're not having
any luck with that.
Maybe there's some kind
of experimental drug
or a clinical trial.
There's no guarantees.
I don't need
a guarantee.
I just need a chance.
I vowed to Blake to do
everything in my power
to keep our love alive.
I need you to help me do that.
Well? How'd it go?
Papers get signed?
Everything go smoothly?
Well, if by "smoothly" you
mean going to a strip club
where my boyfriend was about to
give my ex-boyfriend a lap dance
until I blurted out that I slept
with that ex-boyfriend, then,
yeah, pretty smooth.
And then you signed the papers?
The deal is dead.
Blaine fired Fletcher
for not disclosing that
we had a prior relationship,
and now Fletcher
won't speak to me,
which is actually fine,
because I finally realized
that I only want
-to be with Ryan.
-Great.
Who just broke up with me.
Maybe I should leave and come
back so we can start over.
Wait.
It's not your fault
that I just spent
the last 16 hours in hell,
it's just
I went from a hot love triangle
and a multimillion-dollar
expansion
to being single again,
with no business plan.
Actually,
I think I can help.
Well, you're not really my type.
You should be so lucky.
No, I meant as a
business partner.
A real one.
I could do the same thing the
Infinity Team was going to do.
We can buy our own club
and come up with
an even better plan to expand.
Would you really want
-to do that?
-The truth is,
I've been looking for
an investment in real estate,
and after seeing the way
you negotiated with Blaine,
I was pretty
impressed.
And I happen to know that Jeff
and Monica have been wanting
to unload the Colby Club
right next door.
Might be a sign.
We could expand the expansion.
I'm in.
I am not sorry for
being mean or scary
or for being tough on
you or my employees.
If this is your apology,
you should probably stop.
Look at page 26.
Go.
Think I'm having flashbacks.
I am sorry
for not having considered
what your life was like
back then.
Looking at that picture,
it made me realize
that I never put myself in your
shoes, or your plant costume.
Thank you.
And I know that
the Carrington scholarship
must have carried
a lot of pressure,
and I'm sorry if you ever
felt like I was using
that pressure to manipulate you.
So I am apologizing, but not
trying to
manipulate you
onto my board with that apology.
I like scary Fallon.
I always have.
You always go after
what you want and you know
how to get other people
to give it to you.
With the board,
I just
needed you to respect
my boundaries, as a friend.
I understand. And our
relationship is more important
to me than, you know,
me getting what I want.
Which doesn't sound like
something I would say,
but it is true.
Friends again?
We never stopped.
Good, because as a friend,
I couldn't resist
fixing your hacker problem.
I put a poison pill
into your system
before I left,
and when they tried
to hack back in,
it destroyed
all the stolen files
they had.
We may never know
who the hackers were,
but your information is safe.
Wow. So are we talking, like,
a-a real pill or is it?
Let's just say no and that'll
be that.
Okay.
But it was fun getting back
to my techie roots.
Now it's time to dream big.
And unlike
high school,
I don't have to hide
in a tree costume anymore.
Mm. Well, it was technically
a plant, but
What did you have in mind?
I'll let you know
when I figure it out.
Okay. Hey, in the meantime,
do you want to join
my I.T. team?
I'm kidding, I'm kidding,
but thank you
for taking care of this.
That's what old friends are for.
It's done. You're all set,
and it looks like
they have no idea
we were going after
Ridley's emails.
I phished him
using his wife's account.
Once he clicked the link,
I was in.
You should be able to see
everything he sends or receives.
Transfer's complete.
Pleasure doing business
with you.
