05:32Michael? Michael?
05:36You smell like coconut oil.
05:44I love coconuts.
05:52Surprised? Your next cover is me.
05:59I've wanted this longer than I'd ever dare admit.
06:05But what I really wanted was for you to finally see me.
06:14Let's get started.
06:26Oh, Ethan.
06:34That's it. Perfect.
06:38You won't believe this. Brody. The Brody. He just said yes to our next cover.
06:43But what about Liam?
06:45Come on. It's Brody. You're about to shoot a global icon.
06:50But.
06:59Join us for dinner? My treat.
07:03Thanks, but I've got plans.
07:17Well, well, well. Weren't this cover supposed to be you?
07:22What happened? Did Brody steal your spotlight?
07:25Guess playing Ethan's little lapdog didn't pay off.
07:29Huh.
07:34Pathetic.
07:43Ryan's running his mouth on livestream again.
07:47You guys still think Ethan's straight? Please.
07:49He's just deep in the closet.
07:51He's bent like a spiral by now.
08:04We need to talk.
08:06What's going on, Alex?
08:09You guys still think Ethan's straight? Please.
08:12He's just deep in the closet.
08:13Is it true Brody wants you as his sugar baby?
08:16Those are just rumors.
08:18Investors don't care if they're rumors.
08:20And it's bleeding into your father's business.
08:26Your dad wants you home for dinner.
08:28He's getting remarried.
08:30Wants everyone there.
08:32My father's getting remarried?
08:34Okay. I'll be there.
08:37Liam! Think this through and calm down.
08:40You want to be righteous or employed.
08:42If I stay quiet, guys like him keep getting away with it.
08:48You need to see this.
08:51Ryan, I don't care if you talk shit about me.
08:54But you shouldn't do this to Ethan.
09:04Ethan?
09:05You were too impulsive.
09:06It may hurt your career.
09:08I know.
09:09But he shouldn't have come after you.
09:12You.
09:13You.
09:15So, everyone's seen that clip of Model Ryan at the V Magazine Gala, right?
09:20Caught sneaking around?
09:22Filming people like a creep?
09:24Guess you really can't judge a book by its cover.
09:27Didn't think he turned out to be that sleazy.
09:29Anyway, let's take a look at the video.
09:31Oh, my God.
09:33Oh, my God.
09:35Oh, my God.
09:36Oh, my God.
09:38Oh, my God.
09:39Oh, my God.
09:40Oh, my God.
09:42Oh, my God.
09:43Oh, my God.
09:44Oh, my God.
09:59Shit.
10:04You're dropping me over gossip?
10:08It's not gossip anymore.
10:11Our advertisers want clean air.
10:21You're joking.
10:22He's getting the supplement cover?
10:26What can I say?
10:29Timing.
10:34Doors that way.
10:36Try not to chip the paint.
10:42So, where do we begin?
10:58Ethan, you have an insane eye.
11:02Working with you, it changed something for me.
11:04You pull the best out of people.
11:08Thanks.
11:09And you?
11:10You made the work easy.
11:11I wasn't just talking about work.
11:13Liam, you make me feel seen.
11:15Like, really seen.
11:21I need some air.
11:33Hey, I'm sorry.
11:35I didn't mean to push.
11:36I just couldn't hold it in anymore.
11:40I know what it's like
11:41to want something so much
11:43it scares you.
11:55Sorry.
11:56I shouldn't.
12:15Jesus, Mia.
12:17Time zones?
12:18Ever heard of them?
12:19Boring.
12:20So, what's the verdict?
12:21Dad's fiance?
12:22Monster or mildly insufferable?
12:24She's actually great.
12:27She paints.
12:28She listens.
12:30Honestly, probably too good for him.
12:33Speaking of your love life.
12:35Spill.
12:35Any mysterious figures I should vet?
12:37It's complicated.
12:40Ooh, that's a yes.
12:42Tell me hot, rich, emotionally unavailable.
12:46Royal blood?
12:48Bye, Mia.
12:52Bye, Mia.
12:54Bye, Mia.
12:56Bye, Mia.
13:08Bye, Mia.
13:10Bye, Mia.
13:10Bye, Mia.
13:10Bye, Mia.
13:10Bye, Mia.
13:10Bye, Mia.
13:11Bye, Mia.
13:12Bye, Mia.
13:14Bye, Mia.
13:17Bye, Mia.
13:29Hey, uh...
13:31Liam?
13:32Ethan?
13:33What are you doing here?
13:35I live here.
13:37Wait, this is Charles' house?
13:41Yeah, he's my dad.
13:44So that means my mom is...
13:47Your mom is marrying my dad?
13:56It's great you two already know each other.
13:59That makes things easier.
14:03Absolutely.
14:04It almost feels...
14:05Meant to be.
14:06Been too long since we had a proper family dinner.
14:09Feels good, huh?
14:10Your father says you've always been the independent one.
14:13Always off chasing something new.
14:16Yeah, more or less.
14:18Though I heard there was a time you almost settled down.
14:24Oh, he was committed.
14:27Guest list, caterers, the whole circus.
14:29Let's not.
14:32People change.
14:34And some things are better left where they belong.
14:37You know, I just had a thought.
14:40Maybe Ethan and Liam can have a joint wedding someday.
14:44So hurry up and find girlfriends.
14:47Mom, what are you talking about?
14:50What?
14:50What's wrong with that?
14:52Two brothers, one wedding.
14:54Think of how much you'd save on the venue.
15:01Congrats again.
15:03Really.
15:04Thank you, Ethan.
15:07I should get going.
15:08Some edits to finish.
15:30I'm not here to make things harder.
15:33I just want to talk.
15:35Call me.
15:45Hey, I didn't mean to dig.
15:47I just...
15:48care.
15:50A lot.
16:05Just wrap the shoot.
16:07Missed when you were behind the lens.
16:09How's your day looking?
16:11How's your day looking?
16:12Almost on fire.
16:33I hate to make all my eyes.
16:34To the dogs.
16:38We drums.
16:39We drums.
16:41We drums.
16:41I heart.
16:42We Wr настроí Eine 비 SR � iPhone.
17:05If anyone's seen my stepbrother photographer,
17:09dumb smile, unreal eyes, suspiciously good kisser, tell him I'm looking.
17:29Heard you were looking for someone who kisses pretty well.
17:38Ethan, thank god.
17:41I'm sorry, I shouldn't have vanished like that.
17:48It just...
17:52Everything...
17:53got messy.
17:55I needed space to think.
17:59And? Feel any clearer?
18:03A little, Liam.
18:05I never meant to hurt you.
18:07But with this family thing,
18:09I've been trying to be rational.
18:11Maybe we should...
18:12Go back to pretending we're just co-workers?
18:15Or, play stepbrothers now.
18:17We're not just some label.
18:20Friend.
18:21Partner.
18:22Brother.
18:23Call it whatever.
18:25It still feels like us.
18:29I have no clue where this is going.
18:33But I know one thing.
18:36I don't want to not be around you.
18:41I have no clue where this is going.
18:44But I know one thing.
18:48I don't want to not be around you.
18:51Too bad.
18:52You're stuck with me.
18:53Family, right?
18:54We'll figure it out.
18:56One awkward step at a time.
19:06Michael Green.
19:08You're in luck.
19:10Brody's taken a liking to your golden boy.
19:13Brody.
19:14Hunter?
19:16This Wednesday, 8pm, at Brody's office.
19:20Good luck.
19:21Oh my god!
19:22Brody!
19:23What should I wear?
19:37Mr. Hunter?
19:38Your guest is here.
19:39Send him in.
19:42Welcome, Michael.
19:44Uh, nice outfit.
19:46Evening, Mr. Hunter.
19:48Let's keep this simple.
19:49I've been watching Liam Carter's Rise.
19:51He's electric.
19:52I want him to be in my music video.
19:54That's great to hear.
19:56He's earned it.
19:57No one works harder.
19:59Good.
19:59Now, tell me everything about him.
20:11Michael!
20:12What the hell?
20:13I thought we were at the downtown studio.
20:14Sorry.
20:15I sent the wrong info.
20:16I stayed up too late last night.
20:18Shoot started an hour ago.
20:20What's the damage?
20:21They pulled your solo.
20:23Ryan stepped in.
20:25But they'll still use you in the group layout.
20:29Seriously?
20:30Him?
20:39Seriously?
20:40Him?
20:57Nice!
20:57Liam, that energy, lock it in.
21:00Who's that one?
21:01Back row, left.
21:02Liam Carter.
21:04Was supposed to lead today.
21:05But he's late, so we have to choose Ryan.
21:09Hmm.
21:10Wrong choice.
21:13Running fashionably late.
21:14Or just late late.
21:16Haha, look who made it.
21:17Pretty boys are like apps.
21:19Always a new one coming.
21:21You?
21:22You're already glitching.
21:24Then lucky for you, the queue's for pretty boys only.
21:27Might be your last shot.
21:29Oh, please.
21:31At least I didn't sleep my way to a maybe.
21:33No wonder they dropped you.
21:42Liam, great.
21:43You're here.
21:43Come meet someone important.
21:46This is Ms. Grace Blake from Valori's PR Team.
21:51Ms. Blake, pleasure to meet you.
21:54Likewise.
21:55You handled today well, considering the circumstances.
22:01Ms. Blake, I didn't realize you were on site about earlier.
22:05I truly didn't mean-
22:08Just make sure you return the watch to wardrobe.
22:11It's borrowed.
22:12And not cheap.
22:13Right.
22:15Of course.
22:17I'm sorry.
22:23We value grace under pressure.
22:25I saw that in you today.
22:33You didn't tell me you could cook.
22:35Should I be impressed?
22:37Or concerned?
22:40I contain multitudes.
22:55I don't cook.
22:56But I'm an excellent assistant.
22:58Give me something to do?
23:00You're making it very hard to focus right now.
23:06Mmm.
23:07Smells amazing.
23:08You guys cooking?
23:12I'm so happy you two became good friends so fast.
23:15I love you both.
23:18Love you too, Mum.
23:20Just don't burn down my kitchen.
23:31You are terrible at playing it cool.
23:34Shut up.
23:46Thanks for the ride.
23:47I should go.
23:50Okay.
23:52You could at least pretend to be bummed.
23:54But I'm not.
23:58You keep looking at me like that.
24:00And I'm never getting out of this car.
24:09You keep looking at me like that.
24:11And I'm never getting out of this car.
24:31I'm not getting out of this car.
24:32I'm never getting out of this car.
24:32I'm never getting out of this car.
24:32But I'm Sammy Salmona.
24:32I know.
24:39I'm still thinking about mybrand's house.
24:39No, I'm not going to lie.
24:50We're thrilled to have Valerie on board.
24:53We've put together a proposal we really believe in and we're equally excited to have Liam
24:58joining us for this feature.
25:01Thank you Harper.
25:03This is exactly the kind of visibility we're looking for.
25:07And this is our creative director.
25:10She will oversee design coordination and campaign tone.
25:18As for the shoot, any preferred photographers, we're open to suggestions.
25:25As for the shoot, any preferred photographers, we're open to suggestions.
25:31If we're talking about the shoot, I'd love to recommend Ethan White.
25:38He's incredible, smart, fast.
25:41His work is beautiful.
25:42I think he'd be perfect for this.
25:43No, that won't be happening.
25:45Wait, I don't get it.
25:47Ethan's one of the best.
25:50What's the issue?
25:52It's not up for discussion.
25:54Valerie has certain standards.
25:56Ethan White doesn't meet them.
26:08Let's move on.
26:13What was that?
26:15Why'd Grace shut Ethan down so hard?
26:16Did something happen?
26:19Did something happen?
26:19No one knows for sure, but the Lori's avoided Ethan for years.
26:25Some kind of fallout.
26:26No one talks about it.
26:28Trust me.
26:30Don't tush it.
26:34What was that?
26:35Why'd Grace shut Ethan down so hard?
26:37Did something happen?
26:40No one knows for sure, but the Lori's avoided Ethan for years.
26:45Some kind of fallout.
26:47No one talks about it.
26:49Trust me.
26:50Don't tush it.
27:10You lost or just dramatically loitering?
27:24You gonna tell me what happened in there or am I supposed to guess?
27:29Nothing major, just a weird day.
27:36Having a brother like you could be worse.
27:48Can we get a photo?
27:50Only if my very handsome stepbrother joins too.
27:54You two could model together.
27:56Seriously.
27:59We're just here for the cake.
28:12We're just here for you but I'm time.
28:19We'll be back with the cake next weekend as UI.

33:22Oops.
33:31Well, well.
33:33My dear little brother.
33:35You've been hiding this deep?
33:38Sneaking around in my room?
33:41You've got some nerve.
33:44Yeah, um...
33:46Awkward.
33:47Hi, Mia.
33:50We didn't know this was your room.
33:52We were just...
33:53I don't need the details.
33:55I can imagine enough.
33:56Mia, please.
33:58Don't tell Mom and Dad.
33:59It's their big day.
34:01Don't ruin it.
34:02Please, we...
34:03We aren't ready for them to know yet.
34:08Relax.
34:09I'm not that bored.
34:11I wouldn't ruin Mom and Dad's wedding.
34:13But you two, next time you sneak around, remember to lock the door.
34:17And pick an empty room.
34:19Stop messing up my bed.
34:24Hurry up and fix yourselves up.
34:27The guests are looking for you outside.
34:29Don't get caught, my two dear brothers.
34:37Thanks.
34:50Mia!
34:51Mia!
34:52Helen, this is my daughter.
34:53Mia, she finally made it.
34:55Mia!
34:56I've heard so much about you.
34:59It's so lovely to meet you.
35:02All good things, I hope.
35:15Ethan's looking distracted tonight.
35:18Guess someone's caught his eye.
35:19Really?
35:20About time.
35:21Who's the lucky girl?
35:23Maybe it's not a girl.
35:45What's stalking me now?
35:47Just making sure my brother gets home safe.
35:51Didn't know I had such a clingy brother.
35:54You also didn't know your brother had bad intentions.
35:58Huh?
36:03Guess I should be scared then.
36:08Guess I should be scared then.
36:10Guess I should be scared then.
36:37Thanks for sitting here.
36:55Maybe it's not a girl.
36:58Heard you've been sniffing around my business, Uncle Alex.
37:02Looking to cash in?
37:04No thanks.
37:05I plan to spend my 60s with a clean record.
37:08And both kidneys.
37:09Just enjoying the night, Uncle Alex.
37:11Nothing more.
37:33Still thinking about what Alex said at the wedding?
37:36Screw it.
37:57Oh god.

38:12Emily this it's not relax you think I didn't already guess
38:19Brody's contract is here and please lock the door next time if you break the camera you're both

38:39door first then we celebrate not dropped just redirected a fresher aesthetic now that's funny
38:53I just confirmed Liam as the lead for my next music video guess I'm not on trend either
39:10maybe you should go ahead and drop me too wouldn't want to ruin your fresher aesthetic

45:49Yeah, this is Liam's agent who's calling Liam Carter's breakout music video is being hailed as provocative
45:55Intimate and one of the year's most daring visual statements
46:02Son of a bitch

47:17To the backseat
47:18All my life's long
47:20Struggles and pain
47:21And I thought we'll never go away
47:25I never thought that you would be the one
47:28And with you I found a place to call our own
