00:06I know deep down you would love if Bill admitted that getting with Haley was the worst mistake
00:13of his life. The dream of millions of scorned wives. I asked the hospital to prepare a DNR.
00:19She wants to quit her chemotherapy. What?
00:24I'm not sure I want to have another child anymore. Bill no longer wants me to push out his big
00:31ass baby.
00:33The only way out is in a body bag. So he's dead? Not yet.
00:52So he's dead?
00:56He's dead?
01:03He's dead?
01:36You know how Leah feels about us fraternizing at work?
01:39If she catches us, we'll never hear the end of it.
01:42Well, good thing we're in the privacy of an elevator.
01:45Except we're not exactly alone, are we?
01:49You worry too much?
01:51Live in the moment?
02:41Is the sauce to cheese ratio off again?
02:44Hmm?
02:46What is in those phones that are taking you away from pizza night?
02:50Just stressy Chessy being a troll.
02:53Is she still blowing you up?
02:57Anastasia's granddaughter is harassing you?
02:59Pop, chill. It's not that deep.
03:02Chessy beat me in our first impressions workshop,
03:04and now she's rubbing it in my face. That's it.
03:07But you've always been an old pro at meeting new people.
03:10What happened?
03:11It's different when you add in the pressure of being perfect
03:14and saying nearly all the right things.
03:16So it sounds like you lost the battle.
03:19But you will win the war.
03:20So, how's Pratt with you and Jessica?
03:25Fine.
03:27Okay. Now the truth?
03:32Hopeless.
03:35Tomas.
03:36Flirting with Lynette.
03:40He's dating Bill's niece.
03:42He would never flirt with anyone in Bill's office
03:45unless he was trying to gain their trust
03:47or get you to slip up.
03:49But my case is closed.
03:51There's nothing to go dig up anything up on me.
03:54Wait.
03:56Which means he's trying to get something on you.
04:00And he's using me to do it.
04:02It was more than that, Bill.
04:04If you would have seen her face, she was terrified.
04:08Thank God I walked in when I did it.
04:09Okay, okay.
04:11Just, listen, be more direct, Haley.
04:13What exactly are you saying?
04:15Your new junior partner sexually harassed a client.
04:25So what's got you feeling hopeless?
04:27The cotillion is supposed to be a fun experience.
04:31Tell that to my two left feet.
04:33What happened to your program dance instructor?
04:37Even if you hired Misty Copeland,
04:39the only way that this boy is getting better
04:41is with a rhythm transplant.
04:43But hey, it's not like Jessica doesn't already know.
04:46And yet, she's still into you.
04:48Come on, guys. Please.
04:49I just want to have a nice family night.
04:51Stop bickering.
04:52Listen to your pop.
04:53No fighting on pizza night.
04:55Save it for Taco Tuesday.
04:57Thanks for joining us.
04:58I thought we lost you to work.
05:01You know this is important, Martin.
05:04Babe, no need to get intense.
05:06I was kidding.
05:08Something go wrong with your story?
05:11You want to order from that Greek place you like,
05:13and we can, um, binge in the show?
05:17Well, that mural sounds delicious.
05:19Great. I'll put it anywhere.
05:21But I can't. Sorry.
05:24Why?
05:25Is it your mom?
05:27I just have something I need to take care of.
05:30Not everything's about my mom.
05:33I wasn't implying that it was.
05:34I was only wondering.
05:37Uh, I gotta check in with the lab before I take off.
05:40I'll call you later. Okay?
05:44Well, that wasn't confusing at all.
05:47Sexual harassment.
05:49You know, that's serious.
05:50I agree.
05:51Which is why swift action needs to be taken.
05:54We have to believe women the first time.
05:57Okay.
05:59Okay.
06:00Tell me exactly what you know.
06:03Tomas was throwing his weight around and trying to make it seem like he did Lynette a favor by getting
06:08her case thrown out.
06:09Like, she owes him now.
06:11Well, I'm the one who got her charges.
06:13I know that.
06:14And you know that.
06:16But Tomas is running around here playing hero.
06:19And to imply, didn't that poor woman pay him back for it?
06:24You know, it just makes me sick to my stomach.
06:27Haven't you noticed how he's been running around here?
06:29Treating Caroline like an intern raising his voice at me?
06:34Wow.
06:34He's been on a major power trip, Bill.
06:36So you think he's forgotten who actually signs the checks?
06:40Oh, I know he has.
06:42The question is, how is the real boss going to handle it?
06:50Mi amor, we're shaking.
06:52How long till you get here? I miss you.
06:55I only have one more thing to wrap up, then I'm on my way.
06:58Hold on, Mamita.
07:01It's Bill. Let me call you back.
07:05Boss, what can I do for you?
07:07You can get your ass in my office.
07:09Now.
07:19Dude.
07:20That was way too close for comfort.
07:21Tell me about it.
07:22I just knew Ashley was going to turn around.
07:25I would have started a full on argument with her to keep her attention before I let that happen.
07:29Good.
07:29Being able to think on your feet is key.
07:32You impressed me today, man.
07:34That kiss was smart.
07:35Thanks.
07:36I was sweating bullets.
07:38This was already risky, but now we're playing with fire.
07:40Ashley can never find out about what we're doing.
07:42You know that, right?
07:44Yeah, Jacob.
07:45I mean, Rashad, I don't need a reminder.
07:48You sure?
07:49I think you do.
07:50Because you still refuse to break up with the very person that could blow this whole thing up.
07:54All it takes is one mistake.
07:55Before you came along, I was doing just fine playing both sides.
07:59Really?
08:00Because I remember you were about to confess your sins not too long ago.
08:03Look, you want me to trust you?
08:05You're gonna have to trust me too.
08:06Ashley doesn't know anything.
08:07We're fine.
08:21Hey, Ashley.
08:23What's wrong?
08:25Oh, I'm just wonderful.
08:28Just spiraling, holding a picture of Jacob.
08:32It's the only way I can see him nowadays.
08:35Okay.
08:36You're in desperate need of some girl time.
08:38I don't know.
08:39I'm not much fun to be around right now.
08:42Well, neither am I.
08:43So, we're just gonna have to make some joy.
08:46What's got you down?
08:49After giving me the hottest kiss ever, Grayson just totally blew me off tonight.
08:53I am getting whiplash.
08:55You wanna talk about it?
08:56Yes, but I don't wanna spend the whole night just worried about our guys, okay?
09:02We need to focus on the positive.
09:05You know what?
09:07You're right.
09:08We are fully actualized women capable of connecting on things more than just men.
09:14Exactly.
09:15I'll bring the food.
09:17See you soon.
09:20Sorry, I lashed out.
09:22I'm just tired.
09:24I should probably hit the hay early tonight.
09:26No need to apologize.
09:28Oh, how was your rally?
09:30Oh, you should've seen the turnout.
09:32I mean, the place was packed to the brim.
09:34I'll have Shonda text you photos.
09:36The people are fired up.
09:37Well, the people have spoken, and they want the congressman to keep his seat.
09:43Congratulations.
09:44I knew it would be successful.
09:47Do you guys want to say congrats to your papa on his big rally?
09:53Congratulations.
09:55What has gotten into you both?
09:59It's a cotillion.
10:01It's not the dancing I'm worried about.
10:03Jessica hates it.
10:06She feels as if it's all about status and wealth.
10:10You do realize the tradition runs deeper than that, right?
10:14I do, but it goes against everything she believes in.
10:19She's been anti-Cotillion since the beginning.
10:22But hey, at least Jessica's not worried about Chessie doing the most.
10:26We have been over this.
10:29You both have your own strengths.
10:30But my strengths aren't as strong as Francesca going to some fanciest foot sporting school and speaking like three languages.
10:38One more and she'll be a polyglot.
10:41Character is more than just crossing off a checklist.
10:44You're a good person with real accomplishments of your own.
10:49Your papa's right.
10:51You got the ball rolling on that free clinic.
10:54That is going to have a lasting impact for real people.
10:58And you're putting in the volunteer hours on top of holding it down with a rigorous school schedule.
11:04Should I drop that in the group chats that Chessie keeps adding to?
11:08You're getting stormed with messages.
11:10Jessica might dump me because I'm going along with this whole thing.
11:13Why are we even doing this?
11:15Jessica is not going to break up with you because of the cotillion.
11:18Smitty, back me up.
11:23If this is about the brief, I just have to do it.
11:25This isn't about the Waterford case.
11:28Then what's going on? You seem upset.
11:31Is there anything you need to tell me about Lynette Wise?
11:36I'm sorry, what?
11:37I'll say it more plainly for you.
11:40Did you or did you not sexually harass Lynette Wise?
11:54Sorry, it's work.
11:56You guys are always saying Samantha and I are on our phones way too much.
12:00And dad is practically glued to his these days.
12:05Hypocrisy, thy name is Smitty.
12:07Cute. Watch it.
12:12Hey, I'm Kat.
12:14Hi, I got your text about Chessie getting a standing ovation in prep class.
12:18You okay?
12:20Not really.
12:22Well, this is where your favorite auntie comes in.
12:25I'm here as your self-esteem coach.
12:28And that starts with your look.
12:29You'll be ready to shine the next time you're with your cohorts.
12:33I don't know what I would do without you guys.
12:35Well, that's what family's for.
12:38Now, you've got your shoes.
12:40We're almost there with your dress fitting.
12:42I've set up some sessions with a few makeup artists
12:46to make sure your look is perfect.
12:49And I'll check in with Donnell to make sure he doesn't need anything.
12:53He's done this before, so I'm sure he's already prepared.
12:58I'm sure he could use the reminder.
13:01Hey, Samantha, um, I'm gonna have to call you back.
13:10All right, we've got spring rolls, we have stir fry, we have Kung Pao chicken, and I even got you
13:16those churros you like for dessert.
13:18You read my mind.
13:20Is wine okay for you?
13:21Mm-hmm.
13:25So, you still haven't heard from Jacob?
13:28Nope.
13:29I asked him to get together today, but he turned me down flat.
13:34Through your secret message system?
13:36He didn't even make an attempt because of whatever it is he's doing out there.
13:41I don't know how much longer I can handle this.
13:43Hey, you are a lawyer married to a cop.
13:48You have been mastering high stakes for a while now. Why don't you lean into that?
13:51I did that.
13:54And I swore it to everyone, myself, you, Elon, that Jacob is smart and he is trained and he will
14:00get through this assignment safely.
14:03But I haven't even seen him.
14:06It could have been anyone on the other end of that burner.
14:08Ashley, I don't even know if my husband is alive.
14:10Hey, I don't want you to talk like that.
14:13I will not allow you to jump to conclusions.
14:16It's not as big of a leap as you think.
14:19Even his mother is worried.
14:21How do you know that?
14:23Isaiah asked if he could use my burner so that she could talk to him.
14:27She just wanted to hear Jacob's voice just in case.
14:31Aw.
14:33She said that?
14:34According to Isaiah, she did.
14:37Like, how am I supposed to stay strong for my husband if his own mother is worried?
14:41And she's a 911 dispatcher?
14:42And she's married to the chief of police.
14:45Exactly.
14:47How am I supposed to continue to believe in the best possible outcome if his own family is about to
14:52break?
14:53When was the last time you did something for yourself?
14:57Please do not insult me by recommending a spa day.
15:00Okay, you know what?
15:01From a professional standpoint, it could help.
15:04Look, being in a meditative space, it helps you remember your truths.
15:09Like, Jacob is really good at his job and he is 100% coming back to you.
15:15Naomi, the only way through this is for you to start believing again.
15:23I'm really glad you came over.
15:25Me too.
15:28Now, let's pig out, shall we?
15:30We shall.
15:33There was a guy before you and Ashley never came as near as she came today.
15:37That guy was a complete stranger to Ashley, something I'm definitely not.
15:42Besides, she's not the only person I'm worried about.
15:44What do you mean?
15:45My wife's aunt and uncle both work at the hospital.
15:48If one of them stepped on the elevator, things could have gone way differently.
15:51Well, you don't know that.
15:52You said it yourself. I think faster than my feet.
15:53Yeah, man.
15:54There's not one thing you could have done to prevent Ted or Nicole from noticing me standing there right behind
15:57them.
15:58I hear you.
15:59So what are we supposed to do?
16:01We find a different location for the transfers.
16:03It's becoming too unpredictable.
16:06Yeah, but that's not our call to make, man.
16:08Well, then we talk to whoever can.
16:10Instead of meeting that garland, we find a different location that's been vetted.
16:14Different place, different building, different elevator, same routine.
16:17You drop the bag and I pick it up like normal.
16:21I don't know.
16:22Changing up the floor like that, that makes me nervous.
16:24What are you talking about?
16:26This way it's safer and helps us not get caught.
16:29So what's the real reason you're being hesitant?
16:34Boss, you're wrong.
16:36You want to rephrase that?
16:37I just mean I didn't harass anyone.
16:40Lynette came here with a basket of muffins to thank us.
16:43This is-
16:43And you responded by hitting on her.
16:46Have you absorbed anything that I've been trying to pour into you since your promotion?
16:50A promotion that you're starting to make me regret?
16:52Bill, I would never jeopardize your firm or my career.
16:57Okay, then how do you explain what I saw?
16:59When I walked in, it looked like you were going to kiss her.
17:02That was not about to happen.
17:03Bill, this is just a misunderstanding.
17:05Bill, this is a place of business and your behavior is both inappropriate and completely unprofessional.
17:11You wouldn't know about that.
17:12What did you just say?
17:13Bill, come on. I'm in love with your niece. You know I didn't do this.
17:17Well, my wife says otherwise. Are you calling her a liar?
17:23Oh, my God. That jacket is gorgeous.
17:27I own a fashion brand, so I can't help but say something when I see a beautiful piece.
17:32Thank you. It was quite the steal.
17:36Sorry. Where are my manners? I'm Kat.
17:39I hear you know Haley? Haley Hamilton?
17:45She's my cousin's stepmother, although she'd kill me if she heard me say that.
17:48Wouldn't you?
17:50Yeah, Haley isn't having the easiest time here, so I'm glad to know she has a friend like you.
17:57How long have you two known each other?
17:58You know, can I be honest with you?
18:00Of course.
18:02It's hard for me to make connections with women because they take one look at me and they assume the
18:07worst because I'm beautiful.
18:10So you're saying you and Haley have such a deep friendship that things like petty jealousy can't get in the
18:16way?
18:17Jealousy.
18:18You know, there is this one attorney that her and I both know.
18:22Every time that he looks at me, it makes my skin crawl.
18:26It's like he's so into me that he just can't contain himself.
18:31I mean, any lesser of a woman wouldn't be able to handle that.
18:36Are you saying that Bill-
18:38You know, it's a good thing that I like my man tall, black, and handsome.
18:45I don't care how good they are at salsa.
18:49So you know who I am.
18:51Hmm.
18:53Your picture is all over my attorney's office.
18:55Well, former attorney who wasn't worth a damn.
18:59You know, he really dropped the ball on my case.
19:01You mean your case that no longer exists?
19:04Your man is failing miserably.
19:07You probably shouldn't hit yourself with that wagon.
19:12My husband asked you a question.
19:18I'm not calling anyone anything.
19:21Okay, look.
19:23When we survived this very same thing a year ago, I put you on the very review board that was
19:29designed to ensure a safe work environment.
19:31Why the hell would you, of all people, put us in this position?
19:34Pauline never would have done this.
19:36You've been acting entitled, your ego's sky high, and you haven't brought in a single new case.
19:41You don't use the tools that I've given you.
19:43You do not work your network like I've continually instructed.
19:46Why would I keep you around if you're not an asset?
19:48Bill, your efforts as a mentor have not been in vain.
19:51I can assure you I have listened to and implemented every piece of advice you've ever given me.
19:57And on top of everything else, you have the audacity to disrespect my niece and piss off my wife.
20:03Haley, if I...
20:04Don't talk to her!
20:07I'm talking to you.
20:09Apologies.
20:10All the way around.
20:12I'll do better.
20:13I'll be better.
20:14Yeah, because you don't have a choice.
20:16You got one option, Navarro.
20:18Fix this, now.
20:20If you fail to, you're gonna be out on your ass.
20:23Get the hell out of my sight.
20:34Come here, baby.
20:36You did the right thing.
20:38Yeah.
20:38Okay.
20:50Is this really necessary?
20:51Yes.
20:53When you are glued to these, like you two...
20:56Well, three.
20:57And mine is in here, too.
20:58And I'm in the middle of a campaign.
21:01Look, we are going to connect over a Richardson Smith game night.
21:05And that's final.
21:09But what if Jessica needs me?
21:12You'll both survive.
21:13What should we play?
21:15Monopoly?
21:16Taboo?
21:17Charades?
21:18Pop, let me.
21:20The goal of this game is word association.
21:25Oh, yeah.
21:25I've been seeing videos of that online.
21:27Where you count to three and you both name something?
21:29Exactly.
21:30It's supposed to test whether you can sync up with the people you're playing with.
21:33Well, why don't you two do a practice run?
21:38One, two, three.
21:41Blue.
21:41Sky, too easy.
21:43All right?
21:44Got it?
21:44Let's go.
21:45One.
21:46Two.
21:47Three.
21:48Cloud.
21:49I was thinking aqua.
21:52Yeah, it was beach for me.
21:54It also exposes your gaps.
21:56Should we play?
21:58Absolutely.
21:59There's no game we can't conquer with our family bond.
22:03What is new in Graysonland?
22:04Oh, I wish I had an answer to that question.
22:08Honeymoon phase is over?
22:09Yeah.
22:10It's so bizarre.
22:11It's like when we first started hanging out, I couldn't pay Grayson to give me space.
22:16He was always down to grab a bite or catch a movie or hang in my place.
22:22And now he's not?
22:24I get these little glimpses, but mostly he just blows me off.
22:28Like he did tonight.
22:30I thought you said he needed this girl time as much as I did.
22:33I suggested his favorite Greek place.
22:36And he just totally shut me down.
22:38He gave me some vague reason about having other plans.
22:42Maybe he did.
22:44I don't know if he's losing interest or if he's cheating on me.
22:52Okay, now it's my turn to tell you not to overreact.
22:55Only a fool would step out on you, Ashley.
22:58And Grayson seems like a reasonable guy.
23:01If he couldn't hang out tonight, I'm sure there was a good reason.
23:04Look man, this isn't the kind of situation where you want to ruffle feathers.
23:08You really think the big boss cares about the specific details of how his product travels?
23:12Even if he doesn't, the person who's scheduling the drops will.
23:15We'd have to convince him to change the plan and that's not going to go over very well.
23:18Wait, I thought you said you didn't know about who sets up the drops at the hospital.
23:21I don't.
23:23Then what makes you think it won't go over well?
23:25Look man, I've been doing this longer than you, alright?
23:28There's a vibe that I get over the phone.
23:30Okay, look.
23:31For me, my...
23:33I guess you can call him my supervisor.
23:35He shoots me a text when it's time to hate Garland.
23:37But we've at least met face to face and spoke over the phone.
23:40So remind me again how it works with you.
23:44You want me to trust you, right?
23:46You gotta trust me too.
23:49They text me from the same number every time.
23:52They let me know when you're on your way.
23:54Okay.
23:54So that means it's only one person who's running point at this part of the operation.
24:00I guess I could text them and ask for a new location.
24:04Now you know what?
24:05Call them.
24:07That way we can learn a few things about the person in the process and you can make your argument.
24:12Do it, man. Make the call.
24:19Okay, I know I'm new to this, but Terrell, your sister said orange and your dad said veggie.
24:25And the first thing that came to your mind was smile?
24:28I always remember the good times with Jessica.
24:31Come on. Let's start over family.
24:34One, two, three. Vacation.
24:39What happens, Manny?
24:41Sorry, no. Let's go again.
24:44Okay.
24:45One, two, three.
24:47Puppets!
24:51How about we take a break?
24:52Yeah.
24:53No, no, no. Let's try one more time.
24:58One, two, three.
25:00Love!
25:01One, two, three.
25:05Sorry.
25:16Thank you, sweetheart.
25:18Now I gotta start damage control and speak to Lynette.
25:22No, no, no. I can reach out to her and make sure she's okay.
25:26You sure?
25:26Yeah, and she may feel more comfortable with the woman.
25:30Yeah.
25:31Well, thank you.
25:34Looks like I'm gonna have to keep Tomas on a title leash from here on out.
25:37Or you can unclip it all together.
25:40I mean, it's no telling who else he's done this to.
25:43A man like that is a repeat offender bill.
25:45Well, come on. I think that's a bit of a stretch.
25:49I mean, he did seem pretty shocked. Maybe it was just a misunderstanding.
25:53No, you didn't see the fear in her eyes. I did.
25:57Tomas is trouble.
26:01Listen, this is your firm, your decision, but I just want you to ask yourself this.
26:08Are you really okay with Tomas playing your niece for a fool?
26:13Because if someone was trying to coerce me, you'd have their head on a platter.
26:20If I were you, I'd be careful how you speak to me.
26:24Hmm.
26:25Now, Kat, that hurts.
26:27I thought we were becoming friends.
26:30You and Haley are hiding something. I know it.
26:32I've been cleared of any wrongdoings, hon.
26:36Right.
26:38Embezzlement.
26:39You were cheating someone then, and you're cheating someone now.
26:43Has attorney Navarro been discussing my case during his pillow talk?
26:47Tomas would never violate attorney-client privilege.
26:50It took me all of five minutes to look you up and find your case myself.
26:55I don't believe you.
26:56I will have him disbarred for discussing my personal business.
27:01Tomas is an officer of the court.
27:03He would never do anything to risk his license.
27:08Why are you so curious about me?
27:10You seem triggered.
27:12Have I pushed a button?
27:13You know, you may want to work on your technique before you try this again.
27:17Maybe next time, it'll be a little bit more convincing.
27:28Well, if it isn't the Latinx Perry Mason.
27:32Let's go somewhere else.
27:34On my account?
27:35I was just leaving.
27:37I wasn't really feeling the ambiance.
27:39Maybe I'll take my newfound glory and go explore Chocolate City.
27:43Tell your boss I said thanks again.
27:47Later, Katie.
27:54That bitch knows my name.
27:56And after talking to her, I know more than ever that she and Hayley are up to something.
28:03Yeah, you'd be right.
28:08Why are you so nervous, man? Just make the call.
28:16Put it on speaker.
28:23Now what?
28:24Well, you can call back and make sure it rings completely this time.
28:27That's why I can end up like Max.
28:28Blowing up the phone is stupid and reckless.
28:30We need this to happen, Grayson.
28:32I don't know about that.
28:34Fine.
28:34Just go with your first mind and shoot him a text.
28:36And then you'll be satisfied.
28:38What are you talking about?
28:39This is about the both of us, man.
28:41What happens the next time we're standing in the elevator and Ashley walks on?
28:44Or what if she notices me in the parking lot?
28:47Or better yet, what if she asks what's in your unmarked insulated bag?
28:50Fine, fine.
28:50I will send the text, but that's it.
28:52This is my ass on the line with the contact.
28:54That's all I'm asking for.
29:03I don't know, maybe this is how Tomas loves.
29:06I mean, not everyone is capable of being the man that you are to me.
29:11Which is why I thank God for you every day.
29:17But, I don't know, it just makes me wonder though.
29:21If he is brazen enough to do this at work, what else is he doing?
29:26Getting numbers while Cat runs to the restroom at dinner?
29:30I mean, and didn't you tell me that he came up with an excuse when she was trying to move
29:34in with him?
29:34Yeah, yeah, yeah, he did.
29:37Well, you think he was trying to keep her at bay?
29:39Yeah, all while maintaining his own privacy in his own space.
29:44Look, you know, it's just a shame that he let this promotion go to his head.
29:50He thinks he's smarter than you.
29:51Oh, no, no, that would be a grave mistake.
29:55My opinion?
29:57Cut the cord before he tarnishes everything that you've worked for.
30:02Like, he's just not worth the investment anymore.
30:10Well, you and Tomas haven't exactly been getting along very well lately.
30:14Okay, well maybe my spirit picked up on all his foul ways.
30:18But it didn't before?
30:19When you tried to use him to make me jealous?
30:23Listen, we are talking about what Tomas is doing to your firm and your legacy right now.
30:30I'm just a concerned wife, babe.
30:32You sure about that?
30:34So, now you're calling me a liar?
30:37Of course not.
30:38No, I believe you, but I'm not about to fire Tomas.
30:42Okay?
30:43I mean, actually, he reminds me of myself at that age.
30:47Full of potential, but mistakenly thinking with the wrong parts.
30:51But you've never harassed anyone.
30:54That's right.
30:54And Tomas will be dealt with accordingly.
30:57But I'm not gonna cut him loose yet.
31:00He messes up again, though.
31:02Even Cat wouldn't be able to save him.
31:08I'm telling you, Lynette set off every instinct in my body.
31:12She's up to something, and Hailey's involved.
31:14I just don't know how yet.
31:16And she had the nerve to try to trip me up by saying she'd get you disbarred.
31:21What?
31:22Don't worry.
31:22I shut her down.
31:23But get this.
31:24When I mentioned finding her dirt online, her whole entire vibe changed like that was supposed to be impossible.
31:30My instincts don't lie.
31:32Cat.
31:32I was the one who realized Eva was sketchy, and look at all the damage she and her evil mother
31:37have unleashed in the last year.
31:39I just need a little bit more time, and I am gonna crack Lionette wide open.
31:43No, you won't.
31:44Why?
31:45I thought you were just as concerned that she and Hailey were up to something.
31:50Bill just threatened to fire me.
31:52That's why.
31:53Hailey got in his head saying I sexually harassed Lynette.
31:59What?
32:01I don't know what those two are up to, but I don't care.
32:04I can't care.
32:05Not when my career is on the line.
32:07I'll just call Bill.
32:09No, I'm serious.
32:10That'll only make it worse.
32:12I can fix this.
32:13Look, Cat, you and I come from very different places, okay?
32:17I've worked too hard to get here just to throw it all away.
32:22Misunderstanding or not, I can't risk getting fired just to stick it to Hailey.
32:26Well, what about the truth?
32:29It doesn't matter.
32:30Not when my family in Puerto Rico is relying on me.
32:33It's not worth losing everything.
32:38Whatever you say, it's not my fight.
32:46Do you really think Grayson is seeing other people?
32:50In my heart of hearts?
32:52No.
32:53But what else explains the sudden busyness?
32:57Remember how intense he was when I met you guys at Uptown?
33:00He was beating himself up over some mistake he made at work?
33:03And he's very committed to his job.
33:06And his mother.
33:08And didn't you mention he's covering her medical bills?
33:11Well then, maybe he's getting some sort of certification to get a promotion at work.
33:17Or, um, he picked up a freelance gig to earn some extra cash.
33:22Well, he is working this medical concierge service part-time, but if that's what's taking up his time, why wouldn't
33:28he just tell me that?
33:29I have told him that he doesn't have to manage his mother's illness alone.
33:33How do you react to that?
33:35Honestly, he gets really cagey about her.
33:39Mmm.
33:39So he's a mama's boy.
33:42Aww.
33:43No, I'm not joking. I'm speaking from experience.
33:47Jacob can do no wrong in Darlene's eyes, and he loves it.
33:52The first dinner we all had together, Darlene hardly cracked a smile at me the whole time.
33:58How do you compete with that?
34:01Well, over time, he'll learn how to prioritize his two favorite gals.
34:05And then, before you know it, you're ruining it by saying no when his mom asks to use your secret
34:11phone so she can talk to her son while he's working undercover.
34:16Okay.
34:17Hey.
34:19Enough about me.
34:20Let's get back to you.
34:21No, no.
34:22We are still on you.
34:24My point is, is that you and Grayson will rebound.
34:28I-I promise that whatever he's keeping from you is nowhere near as daunting as what Jacob's up to.
34:52What's he saying?
34:53I'm working on it.
35:06What?
35:07It's not happening.
35:08Why?
35:09What'd he say?
35:10Let me see.
35:10No, no.
35:11It's over.
35:12And-and-and-and-and asking questions isn't gonna get this result we're looking for.
35:16Alright?
35:16Damn it!
35:18Alright, well maybe I could work it from my side or try to reach or connect myself.
35:22Listen, if my boss doesn't mess around, you don't wanna rub it the wrong way.
35:25Alright?
35:26Our-our best option is just hope for the best.
35:30Yeah.
35:31Yeah, yeah, yeah.
35:32All good, man.
35:32Thanks for trying.
35:34I gotta go.
35:47Oh, it's work.
35:49Sorry.
35:49It'll be quick.
35:52Hey, what's up?
35:53Ashley almost caught me doing a drop today.
35:56What'd you do?
35:57Grayson distracted her.
35:58But he slipped up and mentioned his contact at the hospital.
36:01That's huge!
36:02Okay, what's his name?
36:03I'll start pulling info.
36:04Not a he.
36:05The person doing the drops is a she.
36:08So there's a woman at Garland Memorial connected to the plasma ring.
36:12Yup.
36:14Now we just narrow it down.
36:16I love it.
36:17Cause I'm dead.
36:30Man, I'm dead.
36:31I haven't had a stop coming.
36:31I'm dead.
36:36I didn't need her.
36:36I'm dead.
36:36I'm dead.
36:38I'm dead.
36:40I'm dead.
36:40I'm dead.
36:41I'm dead.
36:41I'm dead.
36:41Uh-oh.
36:43I'm dead.
36:45I'm dead.
36:45I'm dead.
