05:16ha
05:32Michael? Michael?
05:36You smell like coconut oil.
05:45I 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.
06:13Let's get started.
06:26Oh, Ethan.
06:33That'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. Huh.
07:33Pathetic.
07:42Ryan's running his mouth on livestream again.
07:47You guys still think Ethan's straight? Please. He's just deep in the closet. He'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. He's just deep in the closet.
08:13True. 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.
08:41If I stay quiet, guys like him keep getting away with it.
08:48You need to see this.
08:51Ryan.
08:52I 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.
09:16So, everyone's seen that clip of Model Ryan at the V Magazine Gala, right?
09:20Caught sneaking around?
09:22Filming people like a creep?
09:25Guess 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.
09:32Let's go.
09:55Let's go.
09:59Let's go.
10:04You're dropping me over gossip?
10:08It's not gossip anymore.
10:10Our advertisers want clean air.
10:21You're joking.
10:22He's getting the supplement cover?
10:27What can I say?
10:29Timing.
10:34Doors that way.
10:36Try not to chip the paint.
10:38Hmm.
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.
11:14You make me feel seen.
11:16Like...
11:16Really seen.
11:21I need some air.
11:33Hey.
11:34I'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 to want something so much, it scares you.
11:55Sorry.
11:56I...
11:56I shouldn't.
12:15Jesus, Mia.
12:17Time zones?
12:18Ever heard of them?
12:19Boring.
12:20So?
12:20What's the verdict?
12:21Dad's fiancé?
12:22Monster?
12:23Or mildly insufferable?
12:25She's...
12:25Actually...
12:26Great.
12:27She paints.
12:28She listens.
12:30Honestly?
12:31Probably too good for him.
12:33Speaking of your love life...
12:34Spill.
12:35Any mysterious figures I should vet?
12:38It's...
12:39Complicated.
12:40Ooh.
12:41That's a yes.
12:42Tell me hot?
12:43Rich?
12:44Emotionally unavailable?
12:46Royal blood?
12:47Bye, Mia.
13:05Bye, Mia.
13:28Hey.
13:30Uh...
13:31Liam?
13:32Ethan?
13:33What...
13:34What are you doing here?
13:35I live here.
13:37Wait, this is...
13:39Charles' house?
13:41Yeah.
13:41He's my dad.
13:44So that means...
13:45My mom is...
13:47Your mom is marrying my dad?
13:56It's great you two already know each other. That 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.
14:17More 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.
14:38You 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? What'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.
15:46I 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?
16:10And now, you're down.
16:12Never mind, I'll be leaving.
16:12It's the evening.
16:16.
16:34I'm here.
16:35I'll be leaving the house.
16:53Stop!
17:06If anyone's seen my stepbrother photographer
17:09Dumb smile, unreal eyes, suspiciously good kisser
17:14Tell him I'm looking
17:29Heard you were looking for someone who kisses pretty well
17:38Ethan
17:39Thank God
17:41I'm sorry
17:42I shouldn't have vanished like that
17:48It just
17:51Everything
17:53Got messy
17:54I needed space to think
17:59And feel any clearer?
18:03A little
18:04Liam
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
18:15Play stepbrothers now
18:17We're not just some label
18:19Friend
18:21Partner
18:22Brother
18:23Call her whatever
18:24It 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
18:51You're stuck with me
18:53Family, right?
18:54We'll figure it out
18:55One awkward step at a time
19:07Michael Green
19:08You're in luck
19:10Brody's taking a liking to your golden boy
19:13Brody
19:14Hunter
19:16This Wednesday
19:178pm
19:19At 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
19:43Uh
19:44Nice outfit
19:45Evening, 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
20:00Tell me everything about him
20:11Michael
20:12What the hell
20:12I 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, him?
20:39Seriously, him?
20:57Nice
20:57Liam, that energy lock it in
21:00Who's that one?
21:01Back row, left
21:02Liam Carter
21:03Was supposed to lead today
21:05But he's late
21:06So we have to choose Ryan
21:09Hmm
21:09Wrong 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
21:20You
21:22You're already glitching
21:23Then lucky for you
21:25The queues for pretty boys only
21:27Might be your last shot
21:29Oh, please
21:30At least I didn't sleep my way to a maybe
21:33No wonder they dropped you
21:42Liam, great
21:42You're here
21:43Come meet someone important
21:46This is Ms. Grace Blake
21:48From Valori's PR team
21:51Ms. Blake
21:52Pleasure to meet you
21:53Likewise
21:54You handled today well
21:56Considering the circumstances
22:01Ms. Blake
22:02I didn't realize you were on site
22:04About earlier
22:05I truly didn't mean
22:08Just make sure you return the watch to wardrobe
22:10It's borrowed
22:11And not cheap
22:13Right
22:15Of course
22:17I'm sorry
22:22We value grace under pressure
22:25I saw that in you today
22:34You 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
22:59You're making it very hard to focus right now
23:11I'm so happy you two became good friends so fast
23:14I love you both
23:18Love you too, Mom
23:20Just don't burn down my kitchen
23:31You are terrible at playing it cool
23:35Shut up
23:46Thanks for the ride
23:47I should
23:48Go
23:50Okay
23:51You could at least pretend to be bummed
23:53But 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
24:37Seriously?
24:39Michael, now?
24:40Really?
24:41Really?
24:42Really?
24:50We're thrilled to have Valerie on board
24:53We've put together a proposal we really believe in
24:56And we're equally excited to have Liam joining us for this feature
25:01Thank you, Harper
25:02This 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
25:20Any preferred photographers?
25:22We're open to suggestions
25:25As for the shoot
25:26Any preferred photographers?
25:28We're open to suggestions
25:31If we're talking about the shoot
25:33I'd love to recommend Ethan White
25:38He's incredible
25:39Smart, fast
25:40His work is beautiful
25:42I think he'd be perfect for this
25:43No, that won't be happening
25:44Wait, I don't get it
25:47Ethan's one of the best
25:50What's the issue?
25:52It's not up for discussion
25:54Valori 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?
26:19No one knows for sure
26:20But the Loris 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
26:41But the Loris 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?
27:11Or just
27:12Dramatically loitering
27:24You gonna tell me what happened in there
27:26Or am I supposed to guess?
27:29Nothing major
27:30Just
27:31A weird day
27:36Having a brother like you
27:39Could be worse
27:47Can we get a photo?
27:50Only if my very handsome stepbrother joins too

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.
36:37I bet you ought to be so happy.
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, and both kidneys.
37:09Just enjoying the night, Uncle Alex.
37:11Nothing more.

40:36No.
40:37No.
40:37No.
40:38No.
40:38No.
40:39No.
40:39the fact that you're willing to tell me this is enough.
40:45Besides, Brody already stood up for me. Grace can't turn the tide.
40:49And hey, I'm not some pushover who just takes things lying down. This isn't over.
40:56I'm sorry. Thanks.
41:13Damn it! I don't care if it's Velary or V Magazine. We're getting that breach fee.
41:20You know, even Ethan got turned down by them. At this point, rejection might actually be a badge of honor.
41:28Forget just modeling. I've been sitting on something bigger.
41:35Film. A real shot. You, on screen.
41:40Film? You serious?
41:44Never been more!
42:07We're excited to confirm full sponsorship for your World Tour costumes, digital, after parties, full spread.
42:17Who's the face?
42:19We pivoted to Ryan. Liam was the original pick, but the team felt...
42:28it wasn't the right look this season.
42:32We pivoted to Ryan.
42:40You planning on keeping it?
42:43Hell no. I don't want to feel like I owe anyone.
42:46Even if it's someone who loves you?
42:49Screw you.
42:51Besides, having you is enough. Who needs a car?
42:55That's so like you.
43:11Cut!
43:22Hey! That last scene? You nailed it! You've got real presents!
43:27Thanks. That's... wow. Appreciate it.
43:31Jason Keller.
43:33I produce films.
43:35Have you considered doing more than just modeling?
43:38I mean, yeah. I've been hoping to.
43:45Let's grab dinner. I'd love to talk projects.
43:48Absolutely. I'm in.
44:02Babe! You will not believe what just happened.
44:05Okay. Okay. What happened?
44:08Dinner with Keffer Pictures. They want me in their next movie.
44:11Me! Me! Lead role!
44:13That's incredible.
44:17I'm so proud of you.
44:20I couldn't have done it without you.
44:22I couldn't have done it without you.
44:37Meow!
44:40Meow!
44:42Jealous? Relax.
44:45It's just work.
44:46No, I am not.
44:49Oh?
44:52Then why haven't you let go of that camera since we started?
44:56Babe, if you're jealous, just say it.
44:58Don't be stubborn.
45:13Admitting you're jealous now?
45:16I hope you kill it. I really do.
45:20I know, babe.
45:25Next week.
45:26Yes. Liam's tight, but I'll move a few things around.
45:30Absolutely.
45:35Nope. He's booked.
45:37Try me in three weeks. Maybe.
45:49Yeah, this is Liam's agent.
45:51Who's calling?
45:52Liam Carter's breakout music video is being hailed as provocative, intimate, and one of the year's most daring visual statements.
46:10We did it. You're everywhere. The video's blowing up.
