00:01You have to enter the songwriting contest!
00:04You could win this thing!
00:06Mel, look, I know your heart's in the right place,
00:08and I love you for it, but we're different people.
00:11You like having all the attention, and I don't.
00:13I don't like people looking at me and judging me.
00:16Who's gonna judge you?
00:18That's kind of the point of a contest, isn't it?
00:20Yeah, but it's Eddie Duran's songwriting contest!
00:23That makes it so much worse!
00:25No, better! You love Eddie!
00:27Right! Which is why I'm not exactly interested
00:29and I'm hearing my choked-up singing.
00:31What? No, Lauren!
00:33Eddie will love your songs.
00:35I know it. I know with every molecule in my being.
00:39Look, Mel, he's a rock star, and I'm a teenage girl.
00:42I'm supposed to love him. That's how it works.
00:44It's just a dream.
00:45Sweet, sweet dream.
00:47But writing songs in my room for myself, that's real.
00:51And I don't want my dreams stopping my reality, no.
00:56Then let's make your dreams a reality.
01:12What's the worst that could happen?
01:14I could die of stage fright.
01:16Geez, I didn't think of that.
01:17Yeah.
01:18Maybe you're right not to enter the contest. It's not safe.
01:20It's totally not. It's downright dangerous.
01:22And then you could win.
01:23And then you'd have to meet Eddie and hang out with him.
01:26God, you'd get so flustered that you'd trip and hit your head.
01:28You'd end up in a coma.
01:29And remember, Kill Bill? Comas are gross.
01:32You know, you're right. We should just forget the whole thing.
01:34You think I'm being ridiculous?
01:36I think the worst that could happen is you don't win,
01:39and then we're just right back in the same spot we are now.
01:41There's nothing to lose.
01:45Is this how you talk yourself into entering all those film festivals?
01:48No. I don't need to be persuaded. I just do it.
01:50Even when you're up against the world's best filmmakers?
01:53Yeah, it's just fun to think about what if I did get in.
01:56And, you know, people liked it and I wanted an award.
01:59Like you said, we're different.
02:01But I can tell you, if there was a film festival where I could meet Eddie Duran,
02:05I would be all up in that.
02:07I may need to borrow some of that confidence you have.
02:11Why don't we just record a song?
02:14And we'll listen to it and if it's good, we can send it in.
02:17There's no harm in that, right?
02:19Guess not.
02:21Give me a couple days and I will come up with something.
02:23A couple days? You know I don't have that kind of attention span.
02:26I won't remember any of this in two days.
02:27Let's make one right now. I know you've got a song on the tip of your tongue.
02:30Yeah, it's not ready though.
02:32What about that demo you made a couple weeks ago? We could send that in.
02:34Oh my god, no. I sound like a seal having labor pains. We're not sending that in.
02:37Well, then let's make a new one. I've got a camera and a mic. Let's make some music.
02:44Whoa! Baby, I never said that I wouldn't do the thing Tyler said about you.
02:48Just the fact that he would even bring up my name.
02:50He knows we're together. I mean, we all met on the Senior Ditch Day set.
02:54I think he feels like he knows you.
02:56But he doesn't. He knows nothing about me.
02:59Well, he's pretty convinced that he's got you figured out.
03:02Well, please enlighten me. I would love to know the lies in these ways.
03:07Yeah. It was just the typical stuff.
03:09You know, like you're a gold digger and you can't wait to get your hooks out.
03:13Well, obviously that's true.
03:16I mean, what else do you have to offer a girl other than coal?
03:19Cash.
03:23Frankly, I'm disappointed he wouldn't come up with something better than that.
03:27Yeah. I mean, it was pretty hard to take seriously since...
03:30Well, I've heard about every girl I've dated since I was 16.
03:33That's why none of them compare to you.
03:36Oh, is he still trying to blame you for his failed acting career?
03:40Can we just drop the subject of Tyler?
03:43Yes.
03:44I just want to make sure that he wasn't trying to make you feel guilty or shame you into doing
03:49anything.
03:50The only thing he shamed me into doing was meeting him here tonight.
03:52And that will never happen again.
03:57You know, the sad thing is... Tyler's talented.
04:01You know, he's got this crazy, raw, edgy presence on screen.
04:06Some girls like that. I personally find it creepy.
04:09You know, when he gets in his own way, that movie, it should have been a big break for both
04:13of us.
04:14It launched your career.
04:15Right. I mean, and ever since then, he's been like this professional bridge burner.
04:19But if you ask him...
04:20Oh, let me guess. It's not his fault.
04:22Right. Everyone's after Tyler.
04:24Especially me and Jake, ever since Jake dropped him as a client.
04:27Well, I am starting to feel nauseous.
04:30You were right. Let's make tonight a Tyler-free zone.
04:35Alright. I never want to see him again.
04:38Wouldn't that be nice?
04:47Well, excuse me, ma'am, but I must be at the wrong house.
04:49Listen, don't you even think about walking out that door.
04:51I'd have to examine my head because you look incredible.
04:56But I think this is what my clients with children call negative conditioning.
05:00Mmm, how's that?
05:02Well, I stand you up for my welcome back dinner and this is what I get in return?
05:06A sexy hair doing a hot little dress?
05:09It just doesn't seem right unless you're doing this for somebody else.
05:12Well, you're forgiven for last night.
05:15But in order to make up for it, you have to double your efforts.
05:18Okay? I want two back massages, two times the sweet talk, and two desserts.
05:24Two desserts?
05:25Mm-hmm.
05:25Oh, I can handle that.
05:27Let's go. I am starving.
05:29You ready?
05:30Yeah.
05:36This is Jake.
05:38Hey, Tom.
05:40Yeah, we announced the song contest last night.
05:42Wait, you need Eddie Nguyen?
05:54You're here alone?
05:55Ellie asked me to cover for her. She needed to pick up a prescription.
05:58I hope it's not an imposition for you to stay late.
06:01No, it's fine.
06:02I know you have a daughter at home.
06:03Well, as do you.
06:05Adriana's actually happier when I'm not around.
06:07Oh, they're at that age where they need their independence.
06:10You're very tactful, Nora.
06:12I try.
06:20Would you like to grab a drink after work?
06:24Oh, um...
06:25It's always nice to come down from the stress of a day before you go home to the stress of
06:28a teenager. Don't you think?
06:30I know what you mean.
06:31So, what's that a yes?
06:34Um...
06:35You know, I probably should get home.
06:37Understood.
06:38Another time?
06:39Yeah, maybe.
06:47Did Don just ask you out?
06:49No, it was just a drink.
06:52Did you say no?
06:55I don't know.
06:56It just doesn't feel right.
06:58You know, he's a partner.
06:59It's a tricky path to navigate.
07:14Hello?
07:15Hey there, gorgeous.
07:16I'm not ready yet.
07:17Cool, guys. I'm gonna be a little bit late.
07:19Where are you?
07:20I'm just taking care of some stuff.
07:23Oh, so secretive, but so hot.
07:27The secrets are hot.
07:28You're gonna get burned hanging with me, sweetie.
07:29Can you at least tell me where you're taking me tonight?
07:32Only the hottest place in town.
07:34Where's something sexy.
07:36But not sexy enough, then I'm gonna have to fight some guys to get out of there.
07:39But pretty sexy.
07:40I don't know what that means.
07:43I'll see you soon.
07:44Phil.
07:50Phil.
08:01Are you kidding me?
08:02Those decks are Blu-ray.
08:03The phone is 4G.
08:04Do you even know what the market value is?
08:07I'm the market.
08:09And the value is what I'm paying.
08:12Look, you want what I'm giving or you're gonna walk?
08:14This isn't enough to fill my tank.
08:17See, what my boy Phil here is saying is that he's got a hot piece of talent with very expensive
08:22taste.
08:23And this wad ain't gonna keep her in tight designer jeans.
08:27We're talking business here, Ray.
08:30You wanna do something useful, keep an eye out?
08:36We'll take it, but this is it.
08:38There's a next time we need something more substantial.
08:40It's a pleasure doing business with you.
08:47Don't mention Adriana in front of the customers.
08:49Really?
08:49Hey, that's funny, Chucklehead.
08:51While you were busy goofing off, we just got totally screwed.
08:53Considering that we jacked this stuff, bro, it's a pretty good profit.
08:56It's like, what, 50%?
08:59We didn't pay a dime for it, so it's more like 100% profit.
09:04I'm sick of this small-time crap.
09:05We need to step it up if we're gonna make some real cha-ching.
09:08I wanna bank six figures, and it's not gonna happen with these penny-ante deals.
09:11Why don't we go on that show like we race around the world?
09:13We can win like a million bucks.
09:15Yeah, you do that, Ray. You go eat donkey dung in Uganda.
09:18Make a quick buck.
09:19Just run out ideas here, man. All right? I'm participating.
09:22We need to see Colorado.
09:24Oh, man, I ain't going to Colorado, all right?
09:26I don't go to Burbank if I don't have to.
09:29Colorado's a guy. He's a fence.
09:31Sells merchandise like ours, large quantities.
09:34He's big time.
09:35We, uh, we big time.
09:38We're gonna be, Ray-Ray.
09:39Maybe I can get myself one of those doctor's girls, huh?
09:43Adriana's gonna have some smoke and friends.
09:45Yeah, they're always asking about you.
09:47Really?
09:47No.
09:48Girls like that always smell good.
09:50I love the way they smell.
09:51Does Adriana smell good?
09:53Shut up, Ray.
09:54We're not shooting The Amazing Spider-Man here, Mel.
09:56Ugh, that's all CGI anyway.
09:57I'm going for Cinema Verde.
10:00That's great.
10:00I'm going for cinema getting out of here unless you hurry it up, okay?
10:03Because waiting's making me nervous.
10:05Sheesh.
10:05You're this nervous in my room.
10:07Think how you'll be if you win.
10:08It's what we call a high-class problem.
10:10It'd be nice if it happens, but it's not going to.
10:12Don't be a Debbie Downer.
10:13This is a big opportunity for you.
10:16And for me as your videographer.
10:17Okay, ready when you are.
10:18Hold on.
10:19Just let me go over it a couple times and warm up.
10:21Sharping at me this whole time doesn't count as warming up your voice?
10:23Just give me a minute.
10:25Okay, fine.
10:26But I'm on the clock.
10:26This could get expensive.
10:33They tell me it's nice this time of year.
10:38Down on earth.
11:01Down on earth.
11:04Dawn on earth.
11:05Hold on.
11:07Essex.
11:08But my hair's been in the clouds,
11:10I'm acting weird and lost for words.
11:18Falling like the stars, I'm falling fast.
11:22And not for something I can't reach
11:35Might as well remarked
11:39That was amazing!
11:41Too bad I didn't record it.
11:42Oh wait, I did?
11:44What?
11:44That's Nob's Course Daisy Trick recording rehearsal.
11:47You get fresh stuff that way.
11:48Let me see that.
11:49Mm-hmm.
11:53Ew, I look stupid.
11:54What?
11:55Why am I wrinkling my nose like that?
11:57I thought maybe you were casting a spell.
11:59Yeah, I wish I could.
12:00Cast a spell to forget I ever did that.
12:02There's no way that this video is ever getting seen by humans, okay?
12:06The thought of Eddie watching it makes me want to hurl.
12:08As your backup dancer, I'm a little hurt.
12:10Deleted, boogie queen.
12:12Well, can't we just-
12:12Now!
12:13Okay, fine.
12:20Okay, all done.
12:21Happy?
12:22Happier.
12:23Well, now let's record when you actually like.
12:25No, I am done.
12:26Okay?
12:27No more.
12:28Well, this is about the building.
12:29Good night.
12:37Your purse is ringing.
12:39Forget it.
12:40Whoever it is can wait until like never.
12:43Are you sure you don't want to look at it?
12:44Mm-hmm. I just want to concentrate on you.
12:48What if it has to do with work?
12:51Okay. I'll check.
12:55Um, can you grab me a water?
12:58Yeah.
12:58Thanks.
13:12I am going to create an app for those things so there's no phone calls, no texts, no messages allowed.
13:21It's weird. They have this thing. It's called an on-off switch.
13:24Look at you. I don't think I've ever turned my phone off.
13:26Well, when we're together, I don't need anyone from the outside world.
13:30Really? Well, who from the outside world was interrupting us?
13:35Hannah. She just wanted to tell me how happy the client was with the photo shoot today.
13:40I could have told you that.
13:41You weren't there. I mean, posing and pouting, it's great for right now, but I have bigger ambitions than just
13:49landing the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.
13:52That's a hell of a cover.
13:53I'm serious.
13:54It's funny, because Tyler told me how ambitious you are.
13:59Tyler? Now that's a mood kill.
14:03Yes, I do want to move my way into acting, but my other ambition is to make you happy.
14:11And that you definitely, definitely do.
14:15Oh, I'm definitely creating that app.
14:22Of course.
14:24Jake, what's up?
14:27Uh, tonight, but I am with Chloe.
14:32It's fine.
14:34Uh, okay.
14:37Yeah, no, he can come by.
14:39I'll let you know.
14:44Now who's the one getting interrupted?
14:46Uh, it's this new video director that Jake wants me to meet with. He has to fly to Tokyo tomorrow
14:51to shoot a commercial, so he's going to come over and talk about the new video, but you don't have
14:57to go. You should stay.
14:59That's okay. That's okay. That's okay. I think we should keep our business interests separate. Except for if you want
15:05to make me the lead in your music video.
15:07So, I'm going to go. Have a wonderful meeting, and I'll see you tomorrow.
15:16Okay.
15:19Good night.
15:28Chloe, it's me. Listen, I'm in a real jam. I got pop for a DUI. I'm at the West Hollywood
15:34Station. I really need your help, babe.
15:37Yo, I am so sorry, Tracy, but this editor is going back to London tonight, and he wants to put
15:41Eddie on the cover of New Musical Express, so I got to go over the deal.
15:46Thanks. Did I mention I'm sorry?
15:48It's NME. That's huge.
15:51You are the best wife in history.
15:53I'll call and cancel reservations.
15:55No, no, no, don't. He's got a plane to catch. One quick drink, I'll meet you at the restaurant.
16:00Jake.
16:02I swear on my mother's Bible.
16:03Your mother's an atheist. How many times are you going to pull that one? Come on.
16:06I promise I'll be there, baby.
16:07If you're not there by 9.30, I'm ordering without you and eating alone. Dessert, too.
16:14I'll be there.
16:19I could just send the video I shot tonight. Lauren has no idea how good it is.
16:24It's as good or better than any song Eddie will get in that contest.
16:28So she'll definitely thank me. Or she'll hate me. It's one or the other. No middle ground here.
16:37Finished your homework?
16:38Almost.
16:38Good. Did Lauren help you with math?
16:40Yeah. I'm all set for the test.
16:42Want me to quiz you one last time?
16:43Mom, I'm not 12. I'm going to college next year. I think I should take responsibility for my own work.
16:48I was just trying to help.
16:49Try Phil. That boy needs all kinds of help.
16:52Uh, well, he is on a date with Adriana.
16:54Of course. He'll need lots of help after that. The antibiotic kind.
16:59Melissa, that's awful.
17:00She's a beautiful girl, and her father is one of the top orthopedic surgeons in L.A. Blah, blah, blah.
17:06Maybe he can operate on her personality because she is one of the most unpleasant people I've ever met.
17:10I know that you're lashing out because you're angry. But all of the snide little comments in the world aren't
17:16going to cover up the fact that you've proven you can't be trusted.
17:20Yeah, well, all the attempts at helping me with my homework, Mom, won't cover up the fact that most of
17:24the time, I feel like you hate me.
17:29I can't believe you scored a reservation here. How'd you do it?
17:34It's all about the hookups, and I got them.
17:37Yeah, I'll say. I mean, first you get me those amazing seats at Eddie's concert, and now the hottest place
17:44in L.A.
17:46You know what the hostess told me when she seated us?
17:48What?
17:48Eddie, Duran, and his girlfriend, Chloe, were here. They sat right over there.
17:53Well, someday she's just going to be telling people that Adriana and Phil sat right here.
17:57Maybe one day.
17:59Why wait one day? No reason you can't have it all right now.
18:03A little something for you, sunshine.
18:09Oh my god. Phil, look at these. They're beautiful.
18:15That's how I do.
18:16I have to try them on immediately. I'll be right back.
18:36You are walking.
18:39Alone.
18:40In a remote, barren place, brooding about your lost love, huh?
18:44It's dark, edgy.
18:46Did I say brooding yet?
18:47Yeah.
18:48Is there fog?
18:50Is it foggy?
18:50It is.
18:51We're on the same page.
18:53Yeah, right.
18:54That's interesting, Chris.
18:56Really, but I think on this one, I want something more upbeat.
19:02Like an upbeat visual motif.
19:04You know?
19:05I like the grainy and the black and white shots for a song like this, but...
19:09I don't know.
19:10Maybe like an image that vibrates with the bass.
19:12You know?
19:13Like boom, boom, boom.
19:16You feel me?
19:17You know, that's actually closer to what I originally wanted.
19:20Now I know we're on the same page.
19:22Right.
19:26Thanks for bailing me out, Flo.
19:28The thought of spending the night in that drunk tank with those freaks was too horrifying for words.
19:33Well, it's a good thing we got out of there quickly.
19:36I mean, TMZ and the Enquirer have spies posted all over that place,
19:40and nothing sells faster than a hideous photo of a celebrity leaving jail.
19:44You think the paparazzi would recognize me?
19:46I was talking about me.
19:48Right, but still, I mean, somebody would want a picture of me.
19:50We can never be seen together.
19:53Well, that's going to put a damper on our relationship.
19:56And just what were you trying to prove with that stunt you pulled tonight?
19:59I thought it was time to really scope out my competition.
20:04Huh.
20:05You were way out of his league.
20:07Okay, Eddie might be on top of the music business right now, but that bubble's going to burst.
20:11That's not going to happen.
20:12And I'm sure Vanilla Ice said the same thing.
20:15Eddie's surrounded by amazing people he has.
20:17His dad, Jake, me.
20:18Okay, Jake used to be my agent before he became Eddie's manager.
20:22Another smart career move.
20:25Eddie's just so damn full of himself.
20:27He has every reason to be.
20:28Yeah, but he doesn't have to shove it in my face.
20:30Oh, that's hardly Eddie's style.
20:33He has you fooled, but people like him dump all over guys like us.
20:38Don't include me in your paranoid delusions.
20:41Okay, you might have him suckered into thinking you're this sophisticate from the Upper West Side of Manhattan, but he
20:46has no clue who you are.
20:48He knows exactly who I am.
20:50I'm going to be his wife.
20:52You see, Eddie asked me to marry him.
20:54And guess what I said?
21:03So, how do they look?
21:06You got a text.
21:08Oh.
21:11It's when you and Patrick sexting buddies.
21:13It's a joke, okay?
21:14He texted me.
21:16I just went back to play along.
21:18Oh, so you're playing with your ex-boyfriend again, huh?
21:19No, no.
21:21I'm with you, Phil.
21:24Patrick is a total jackhole.
21:26You know that, right?
21:28I'm jealous.
21:30I kind of have a right to be, don't you think?
21:32Considering how I bust my hump for you.
21:34Do you know how much these little earrings cost?
21:36I don't like sharing my girlfriend with anyone.
21:40Joke or not.
21:41Patrick and I have been over for a long time now.
21:44You have nothing to worry about.
21:47But it's kind of hot that you are.
21:50I just don't want you doing anything behind my back.
21:52Okay.
21:53And since we're talking about secrets,
21:56how did you afford all this stuff, Phil?
21:58And those concert tickets?
22:00Not to mention this dinner.
22:02So where's the cash coming from?
22:05I've got a job.
22:06What kind of job?
22:07I'm CEO of a multinational conglomerate.
22:10What do you mean, what kind of job?
22:12I'm just taking an interest.
22:14I thought we were having a nice conversation.
22:16There's some things that I don't like to talk about.
22:18Okay, well, I didn't know that it was such a big mystery.
22:22Isn't it enough to know that I can afford it?
22:26For some girls, maybe.
22:29But I know how I can get it out of you.
22:34He proposed to you tonight.
22:36In the middle of dessert.
22:38Right.
22:39Since when do models eat dessert?
22:40We're done here.
22:42So where's the ring?
22:44It's coming.
22:46It was his mom's ring, so he had to get it resized.
22:49An old ring?
22:51Cheap, cheap, cheap.
22:53But you didn't say yes to tightwad Eddie, did you?
22:55You don't want to sell yourself short.
22:57I mean, you got talent.
22:58You could score a huge rock.
23:00A Lexus.
23:01Or a house in Malibu.
23:03You know, this might be hard for your ego to grasp,
23:05but I actually love Eddie.
23:06Ugh.
23:07Okay, that performance might work in your intro to improv class,
23:11but that's not going to get you a Cadme Award, sweetheart.
23:13And that's not going to get Eddie to put a ring on it.
23:16It's real, Ty.
23:18No.
23:18No, it's fine.
23:19Just drop it, okay?
23:21You're not that good of an actress.
23:22All that pretending to be in love with a guy
23:24and having to be so fake everywhere,
23:26that's going to take too much out of you.
23:29I can do this.
23:30I will do this.
23:31Don't doubt me.
23:33I don't know.
23:34Even in the bedroom?
23:35Are you faking it in there, too?
23:37Look, Eddie's so dense,
23:38he might not be able to figure it out,
23:40but are you sure you're putting on enough of a show
23:42to get that ring?
23:43Eddie's going to propose to me.
23:45I know it.
23:46Who are you trying to convince?
23:48Me or you?
23:51Yo, just had a great meeting
23:53with the editor of New Musical Express.
23:55He wants to put your face on the next cover
23:57and a four-page color spread inside.
23:59Wow, cool.
24:00Thanks, Jake.
24:01So, how'd it go with Chris?
24:03Doing okay.
24:05I mean, he's definitely got some interesting ideas,
24:06but I feel like we should probably meet
24:08with some other directors, too.
24:09Okay, I'll set it up.
24:11All right.
24:11So, what's up tonight?
24:12You have dinner with Tracy?
24:13Yeah, I'm meeting with her a little later.
24:15Will you get out of here
24:16and stop making that gorgeous woman wait any longer?
24:18Okay.
24:19I guess I'll leave you to your writing.
24:22Subtle.
24:23I mean, how's it going?
24:25It's going.
24:26All right?
24:27It's tough to get started.
24:29Sometimes it's a melody.
24:31Sometimes it's a lyric.
24:34But you got to keep an open mind
24:36and an open heart
24:37because you never know
24:38where that motivation's going to come from.
24:52Am I disturbing anything?
24:54What would you be disturbing?
24:56I don't know.
24:57One of these days,
24:58to come in here
24:58and be disturbing something,
25:00you'll be making out with some cute boy
25:01and I'll have to chase him out of the house.
25:02You sound excited about that.
25:04It'll be fun.
25:05So, we'll have mom stuff.
25:07How was work, mom?
25:08It was good.
25:09It was good.
25:10Yeah, I'm getting the hang
25:11of being in the office again.
25:12You know, everyone seems really nice.
25:14No politics or drama.
25:15Oh, good.
25:16I'm glad.
25:16Yeah.
25:17So, any news?
25:20Oh, quiet on the college front.
25:22Oh, God.
25:23These schools,
25:24they really know how to torture kids, don't they?
25:25And apparently moms, too.
25:27I know.
25:28Everybody at school's a wreck.
25:29But I'm just trying to focus on music
25:31and work
25:32and work
25:33and music
25:34and did I mention work and music?
25:37Well, you've done everything, you know?
25:39The essays, applications,
25:40and now it's just
25:41out of our hands.
25:43Oh, you troll freak that I am.
25:45I hate that it's out of our hands.
25:47I just wish I could make that acceptance
25:48from Brown come tomorrow.
25:49Well, even if it doesn't all have options,
25:51I mean,
25:52everybody ends up somewhere, right?
25:53Oh, honey,
25:54of course you're going to have plenty of options.
25:56Well, college wouldn't want you.
25:58Okay, I don't want to talk about it anymore.
25:59Okay, right, right, right, right.
26:00Sorry, I forgot.
26:01Work, music, work,
26:02music.
26:03Oh, does this mean
26:04that you'll be sending a song in
26:05to the Eddie Duran contest?
26:07How did you know about that?
26:08Melissa told me.
26:09I'm on her blog.
26:11You know what?
26:12Are you going to send that song
26:14that I heard you working on
26:15when you were supposed to be sleeping?
26:16I don't know, Mom.
26:17Mom, you have to send in a video
26:19of you performing the song.
26:20Well, that would be fun.
26:21Yeah, if by fun you mean torturous.
26:24I can't sing, Mom.
26:26You're crazy.
26:27You have a great voice.
26:28Thank you,
26:29but I don't think it's safe
26:30to take your mom's opinion on that.
26:32No.
26:32Well, that's your mom, Simon Cowell, but...
26:35Well, they're looking for a song,
26:37not a singer.
26:38Okay, but how are they supposed
26:39to judge the song
26:40if they have to listen to me
26:41screeching my way through it?
26:42Oh, God, you are so hard on yourself.
26:44Just take a chance on this.
26:46What do you have to lose?
26:54Mel?
26:55I know I'm not allowed
26:56out of my room past nine.
26:57Can we talk for a minute?
26:59What did I do now?
27:00Nothing.
27:01Melissa,
27:03I think what we have
27:04is a failure to communicate.
27:06Wow, Mom,
27:07did you just reference
27:07an old Paul Newman movie?
27:09You're not the only film aficionado
27:10in the family.
27:11Yeah, you're a regular Tarantino.
27:13I know you have this idea
27:14in your head that I hate you.
27:16It being in my head
27:16would mean it was a fantasy.
27:18I have a very rich fantasy life,
27:20but unfortunately,
27:21I think this is reality.
27:22I don't hate you.
27:24I love you.
27:25I can't even tell you how much.
27:26Then why do you treat me
27:27like a prisoner?
27:28I just don't want you
27:29to turn out like you.
27:31Mom, I can't imagine
27:33you doing anything wrong, ever.
27:34Well, I never lied about
27:35where I went or what I did.
27:37That's true.
27:37I wouldn't lie to you
27:38if you didn't micromanage me to death.
27:39You don't trust me
27:41and you never have.
27:42It's been this way my whole life.
27:44I don't need to convince you.
27:46or anyone else
27:47about the strength
27:48of my relationship with Eddie, okay?
27:50I know what we have.
27:52The guy's crazy about you.
27:53I don't doubt that.
27:54But marriage?
27:56That doesn't make sense.
27:57He's not settling down.
27:58Not all men are like you.
27:59No, they are like me.
28:01And they all think like me.
28:02They just don't say this stuff out loud.
28:04He's 21, Chloe.
28:06He could have any woman he wants.
28:08He could fly to England tomorrow
28:09and he could call up that Princess Kate
28:11and she would be at his hotel room.
28:13Guaranteed.
28:14You think he's going to give all that up
28:16to play house with you?
28:18What's wrong with me?
28:19Nothing.
28:20There's nothing wrong with you.
28:21You're beautiful
28:22and you're amazing.
28:23but he can have 20 flavors
28:25of beautiful, amazing
28:26every week.
28:28He's in a different universe.
28:30He loves me.
28:31I know it.
28:32Yeah, because you'll always be there, right?
28:34You're locked down.
28:36He could go on tour
28:37and plow through
28:38the whole female population
28:39of the Western Hemisphere.
28:41And he knows that you won't leave him
28:43because you want to be Mrs. Eddie Duran.
28:45If you're trying to make me mad, then...
28:47No, I'm trying to give you
28:48a reality check, Chloe.
28:51Maybe you don't want to hear this,
28:52but deep down, you know I'm right.
28:54This isn't going to work.
28:55Just get out now
28:56with your dignity
28:57and some nice jewelry.
28:59No, I can do this.
29:01And I know what you're trying to do.
29:02You're just trying to get me
29:03to come back to you
29:04so you can chalk one up
29:05as a victory over Eddie.
29:06No, I want you to come back to me
29:08because we belong together.
29:11I'm not leaving him, Ty.
29:13Okay.
29:15I'll tell you what,
29:16I'll make you a deal.
29:17The day Eddie proposes,
29:19I walk away.
29:20But in the meantime,
29:22let me just give you
29:23what you're missing in your life.
29:24No strengths, okay?
29:26Just a private arrangement
29:29with benefits.
29:32You know this is what you want.
29:40I like it, man.
29:42It's soulful.
29:43Thanks.
29:44It's far from a song,
29:46but it can be a nice hook.
29:47Okay.
29:48I will leave all the creative decisions
29:49to you.
29:50All right.
29:51And I will leave all the, uh,
29:53business decisions to you.
29:55All right?
29:56And a little leprechaun up in here
29:57because I know we've been
29:58getting so lucky lately.
29:59I know it's not just you.
30:00Too true, my friend.
30:03You know, I miss this.
30:05Just chilling.
30:06Oh, we'll still be able to do stuff
30:07like that again, man.
30:08We just have to work really hard now
30:09so we can have downtime later.
30:11Later?
30:12Like, like when our kids grow up
30:14and go to college later?
30:15Damn right.
30:16Yo, and our kids will be friends, too.
30:19I like that.
30:20You and Tracy and me and Chloe
30:21with little kids running around.
30:23Perfect.
30:24Wow.
30:25That's why you are who you are, Eddie.
30:27With all the stuff that's going on, man,
30:28you still have time to think
30:29about friends and family,
30:31which is why you need to be done
30:33with Tyler for good now.
30:34Chloe would have my head
30:35if I said two more words to that guy.
30:37I mean, I can make it
30:37so he never bothers you again.
30:39Yeah, forget it.
30:41All right, I know he's a loudmouth,
30:42but he's harmless.
30:44God, I'm hungry.
30:46Oh, no.
30:47Oh, my God.
30:48The time has just gone by, man.
30:50Tracy's at the restaurant.
30:51Oh, look at you.
30:52Yo, you better get there
30:53before some other man picks her up.
31:05I don't even want to hear it.
31:07But you don't even know
31:07what I was going to say.
31:08Who's this?
31:09Who's this?
31:11Is that a nice question
31:12for your one and only true sister?
31:14Kelly.
31:16You already know
31:17I got a real sister, don't you?
31:18Yeah, but you still knew it was me.
31:19Yeah, that's because
31:20my real sister wouldn't play that game.
31:22Well, if I remember correctly,
31:23she doesn't play any games.
31:24That's her.
31:27I'm sorry.
31:28I thought you were Jake.
31:29Oh, what did he do this time?
31:31He was supposed to meet me here for dinner.
31:34Apparently, he got sidetracked.
31:35Is this becoming the story of your life?
31:38God, I hope not.
31:40This is not what I signed up for.
31:43Anyway, anyways, how, how are you?
31:46God, I feel like we haven't talked in months.
31:48Yeah, I know.
31:51Things, things have been kind of crazy.
31:53I miss you.
31:55Kel, I wish you lived closer.
31:57Well, you're in luck
31:58because I might be coming to LA soon.
32:00I have some prospects out there
32:02that are starting to look kind of hopeful.
32:04That's great.
32:05You're staying with us, of course.
32:07If it's not an intrusion.
32:08Kelly,
32:10I am sitting in a fancy restaurant
32:13alone.
32:15What would you be intruding on?
32:16All right, well, either way,
32:18just ask your ball and chain.
32:19Trust me.
32:20It's fine.
32:26Adriana!
32:29Hi, Dad.
32:32You, get out of here.
32:34Good to see you again, Dr. Don.
32:36Bye, babe.
32:39Thanks for dinner and the earrings.
32:43Dinner and earrings?
32:45Yeah, Phil gave me these tonight.
32:47Do you like them?
32:48No, I don't.
32:50I don't like the idea
32:51of my high school-aged daughter
32:53accepting gifts from men,
32:55especially when he expects something in return.
32:57Dad, what type of girl
32:59do you think I am?
33:00Okay, I'm not some type of
33:01cheap slut who puts out
33:03for the first guy
33:03that buys her something sparkly.
33:05Where does a kid like Phil
33:06get money for jewelry
33:07and high prices?
33:09He earns it?
33:09He earns it?
33:09Doing what?
33:10Selling drugs?
33:10Hardly.
33:11Okay, Phil has a real job.
33:12What kind of job?
33:14He can barely add two plus two.
33:15He got a 2340 on his SATs, dad.
33:18By cheating.
33:18No doubt.
33:19Cheating.
33:20There's a territory
33:21you're familiar with.
33:22Oh, Adriana, Adriana.
33:25One day,
33:26one day you're gonna push me too hard.
33:28Yeah, I can't wait.
33:30Maybe then I can go live with Mom.
33:31Sure.
33:33Call her right now.
33:34See if she'll have you.
33:45No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
33:56Climbing the walls.
33:58Feeling the heat.
34:00I'm running on empty.
34:01I can't find the beach.
34:05I can't find the beach.
34:16I can't find the beach.
35:16Hey. Can you come over? Now.
35:32Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. And he retweeted your lyrics.
35:43I know. He said it was a beautiful poem.
35:47You know this is a sign, right? You have to send me your song.
36:09I'm so sorry I stood you up, baby.
36:14You cooked dinner?
36:16Now, let's not get crazy, all right? Electric Lotus delivers.
36:20You know a couple cartons of curry ain't gonna get you off the hook for tonight's epic fail, right?
36:25I know. I gotta learn how to delegate, baby. I'm just so damn obsessed.
36:29And compulsive.
36:32Which is kinda what attracted me to you in the first place.
36:36What, because of my OCD?
36:40Because, yo, HTB, hot, tight body.
36:47Baby, I'm really gonna have to start taking it personally.
36:50If your fine attention to detail and your legendary memory doesn't apply to dinner with your wife.
36:56Oh, I promise I'll work on that.
36:58But not tonight.
37:00My schedule is full.
37:08With all your skin, with all your skin, ooh.
37:18With all your skin, I'm naked, ooh.
37:24Adriana, come back here.
37:29What for?
37:30So you can trash my boyfriend some more?
37:32I think you can do better. That's all.
37:35Well, duh.
37:36You're my dad.
37:37You're supposed to think that.
37:39But I'm not taking relationship advice from you.
37:42There were a lot of reasons for your mom and I splitting up, you know?
37:45Yeah, I know.
37:46Samantha, Amber, Christy.
37:48Oh, and that Laker girl.
37:50What was her name?
37:51Tutsi or Totsi?
37:53It was more complicated than that kid.
37:55Yeah, for a mom it was.
37:56She couldn't go anywhere without running into one of them.
38:00You know, that's why she moved so far away from L.A.
38:05I just wish I could have gone with her.
38:08Well, for now you're stuck with me.
38:11Maybe we should make the most of it, you know?
38:13We used to have fun together.
38:15Yeah, when I was seven, what?
38:17You want to go to the zoo, Dad?
38:18Is that what it is?
38:19The book of me is some commandant.
38:21That's not right.
38:21I haven't disliked all your boyfriends.
38:24Patrick, I liked him.
38:25What happened to Patrick?
38:26Patrick went to college.
38:28Yale.
38:29And I think he's gay.
38:30It just doesn't work.
38:30Still, Yale, he's Ivy League.
38:33And now you got Phil.
38:34Dad, are you kidding me?
38:35As your father, I'm allowed to have an opinion, aren't I?
38:39Yeah, and as your daughter, I'm not going to listen to it.
38:41Or anything else you have to say.
38:50Colorado?
38:51Mr. Colorado?
38:53What can I do for you, boys?
38:54My man Isaac Smith said maybe we should hook up, do some business.
38:58Am I supposed to know who that is?
38:59Victor's brother.
39:01Oh, Victor, I know, but he never mentioned anything to me about any kind of referral.
39:05I don't know, that must have been some kind of oversight or something.
39:09Yeah, something.
39:10And what kind of work are you looking to do?
39:12You want us to buff the scratches out of your paint?
39:15It's going to work.
39:174G factory sealed.
39:20We know what we're doing, we can get more.
39:24This is a body shop.
39:25Not a Best Buy.
39:28You know, Victor or your man Isaac, I don't know what they said to you, but I run a legit
39:32business here.
39:33Nine to nine, six days a week.
39:35I thought that...
39:36You thought that what?
39:38The owner of a straight small business, wants to be seen holding a bag of what I assume are stolen
39:41goods?
39:43I get it.
39:44Well, there's nothing to get, kid.
39:46Take your mute pal.
39:48And hit the road.
39:49Where are we supposed to do all these phones, man?
39:52Make some calls.
39:54Good job, old brain.
39:56I'm just going to shop these spare parts.
39:57You hopeless geese.
39:58Nine to nine is cold.
40:00Cold is to come back after hours.
40:03Made an impression, bro.
40:32Better to be surprised.
40:56I am not recording that song again.
40:58No problem.
40:59I'll just send the one that...
41:01The one what? The one where I sound like a seal giving birth?
41:05No, not that one.
41:07The one that we just recorded? The one I just saw you erase?
41:11Nothing's ever truly erased anymore, Lauren.
41:13Mel, I want that footage back.
41:15It's so much better than you think. I even boosted the audio with my editing software.
41:19I don't care. I'm not sending it in.
41:22Fine, then I'll do it.
41:23No, Mel, I s- Don't send-
41:25Mel?
41:26Too late. It's on its way.
41:28Hey, Mel, tell me you're joking, okay, that this is one of your wacky pranks to play on, Lauren?
41:33Nope. Your video is now officially entered into the Eddie Duran songwriting contest.
41:37By the way, you're welcome.
41:38A movie halls will never be at...
41:43Fine.
41:44The� hills will never be at...
