00:07Oh good morning. How was prom? Were you good? You know I'm really torn right now because I kind of
00:15want to hear all the details and I kind of want to hear none of the details. Okay well let's
00:19go
00:20with none. Okay. Except that I had a really great time. Oh yeah? And I was on my best behavior
00:24because I'm a mom and I need to set a good example. Oh well you did set a good example
00:29because this weekend Eddie's gonna take me up to a cabin at Big Bear. Absolutely not.
00:34Oh wow that was a stronger reaction than I would have thought. I know. I almost skipped a beat there.
00:39Oh really? So wait wait wait did something actually happen with you and Eddie? No but hold on. Ready?
00:47What? Is this here? He was at our house? Yeah I think he actually stole some silverware.
00:54Wait a minute. This looks like there's a lot more people here than I signed off on.
00:59Mom you're missing the big picture. Eddie was here. Okay and him and Chloe broke up for good.
01:05Oh Lauren. And he came to visit me at the cafe and he was showing me this new song and
01:10we were
01:11talking about it and I actually had some ideas of how to make it better. It was so awesome.
01:14Oh honey you need to slow down. I'm not speaking any faster than I normally do.
01:17Okay I'm not talking about how fast you're talking. You think I should slow down with Eddie?
01:23Yeah I just want you to take your time you know before this thing gets too big.
01:28What thing? It's not a thing.
01:29Well it feels like it's on the verge of a thing.
01:31I just don't want you to get too attached.
01:34Why? Because you're worried that he doesn't like me?
01:37Or you're worried that he does?
01:40Honestly?
01:41I'm not sure.
01:47Come in.
01:50Hey! Jeffrey I didn't realize you cared so much.
01:53Well I'm not just a doorman. I'm your number one fan.
01:57Oh you can set him there.
01:58There's a ton of this in the lobby. Feels like the entire world sent you a gift to wish you
02:02a healthy
02:03and happy birthday.
02:04I'm getting so old.
02:05Well they say it's all downhill after 22.
02:08Do they?
02:10But I have a feeling things are going to get better and better for you.
02:14Thanks Jeffrey.
02:18And happy birthday Mr. Duran.
02:39What are you doing? Come hold me.
02:41Chloe?
02:43Yeah?
02:44I don't want to hold somebody who's obsessing over somebody else.
02:48I'm not obsessing. I'm focused.
02:51I don't want to do this anymore.
02:53Come on. We both said that like a million times.
02:55No it's always you saying it but now it's me. I'm tired of playing second fiddle to Eddie.
02:59Just calm down. Come hold me. I'm tired.
03:02No. Look you don't get it. You can't make me your second choice.
03:07You can't keep me at arm's length all the time.
03:09But you're here right now. So what else do you want?
03:13I want you to start acting like a human being instead of this psycho whose life is only about marrying.
03:19Oh my gosh. Just stop. Okay?
03:22Be here or don't be here. But don't talk to me this way. It's Eddie's birthday and I have plans
03:27to make.
03:28No don't talk to me this way mentioning Eddie and all the other stuff.
03:31I thought that you were going to help me get him back.
03:34And I did. I gave it my best shot.
03:36But you didn't buy it.
03:37That's not my fault and I don't want to be your backup plan.
03:41Come on. That's just how it has to be until I get Eddie back.
03:47Then you're going to be alone.
03:49Tyler.
04:00Hello?
04:01Hey. It's Kelly. What are you doing?
04:04Oh, I'm just heading to school.
04:06Oh, that's right.
04:08Look, I was wondering if we could get together today so we can start working on some new songs.
04:12There's some really great producers that I can pair you up with.
04:15Oh, that's great. Um, do you want me to meet any of them today?
04:19No, it doesn't have to be today, but it would be great if you can pass by after school
04:23and I can hear some of the new stuff.
04:26New stuff at the studio? Um, how many people are going to be there?
04:31It's just going to be me, Steven, an engineer, maybe a couple of other people.
04:34It's not that many people.
04:37Uh, today might not be the best day up. Can you hold on one second?
04:46Hi.
04:47Hey, Lauren.
04:49Oh, where are you calling from?
04:50Oh, sorry. I'm calling for my new car. The record label got it for me.
04:54Wow. What is it with birthdays and getting new cars? Is that a new thing that I haven't heard about?
05:00Aha. So you know it's my birthday already.
05:02Every fan in the world knows that it's your birthday.
05:04Hey, what are you doing? Can you come over after school and help me work on this new song?
05:07Oh, the one that you played for me last night?
05:09Yep.
05:10Uh, yeah. I would, I would love to.
05:13Wait, sorry. I forgot that I have Kelly on the other line. Um, let me just...
05:17I'll see you later.
05:18Okay.
05:21Hi, Kelly. Are you still there?
05:22Yeah, I'm still here. What just happened?
05:25Sorry, that was Eddie. And then I forgot that I was on the other line with you.
05:29Okay. Well, I guess if I'm going to be forgotten for anybody, it better be Eddie.
05:33Um, so can you pass by after school?
05:36Actually, I'm supposed to be working on Eddie's new song with him.
05:40Oh.
05:41And it's his birthday and everything.
05:43Right. Lauren, I need to hear some new songs soon.
05:48No, and you will. I promise. Just not today. Um, maybe tomorrow?
05:52Well, it'll be one day less new tomorrow, but I guess that'll be good.
05:56Um, yeah. Just let me know how it goes with Eddie.
05:59Okay. And thank you for understanding.
06:01Yeah.
06:02Bye.
06:09Was that Tyler who just left?
06:11Yeah, there's a jackass convention in town. He's the featured speaker.
06:15Chloe.
06:16Oh, Mom, come on. He can handle the abuse.
06:18Well, it doesn't mean he should have to. Besides, he's not even here. You're being mean just to be mean.
06:22Does that have gluten?
06:24I didn't ask.
06:25Yeah, I can't eat it.
06:27Okay. Well, I'll just leave it right here in case you change your mind.
06:33Oh. You buying a watch?
06:34Mm. I bought a stainless Rolex with a black dial with the inscription,
06:38Happy 22nd, Eddie. Love, Chloe.
06:41You bought Eddie a Rolex watch for his birthday?
06:44Yeah, and I'm just making sure it arrived.
06:47How much did that cost?
06:48A lot.
06:50You have been throwing around a lot of money, and I don't see too much coming back in.
06:54Mom, I'm a model. I'm in demand. I can work whenever I want.
06:57Well, I haven't seen you working much since I've been here.
06:59The one job I booked, you canceled for me. Thanks again for that. And plus, I'm focusing on my acting
07:06career.
07:06Honey, I saw your credit card bill, and you're carrying a lot of debt.
07:11I'm buying a gift for the man I'm going to marry. He is your ex-boyfriend. It is really starting
07:17to
07:17concern me that you are not accepting of that reality. And you're going to lecture me on reality?
07:22I just think you need to start being more careful. And I think I need to start working harder to
07:27get
07:27Eddie back.
07:33Well, baby, slow down.
07:35I'm sorry, was I making noise?
07:37No, it's just kind of funny. I mean, you're eating a healthy breakfast, but
07:41you're eating it so fast it may kill you.
07:44I see the irony there.
07:45Yeah, take a breath, baby. Slow down.
07:48All right.
07:50Yeah, I've been gone. I barely saw you yesterday. Can we catch up?
07:54All right. Here.
08:00So you taking another day off again?
08:03Yeah. Yeah. Just one more. I need to clear my head.
08:08No, babe, are you okay? I know your dad's doing better,
08:11and the Chicago trip was good, right?
08:12Yeah, Chicago was good. My dad's better. But who knows what's next? You know,
08:17he's getting up there, and he doesn't necessarily live the healthiest of lifestyles.
08:21You want me to call him up and talk some sense into him?
08:23Oh, yeah. He always listens to you, so I'm sure that's why I'm going to go well.
08:27Right. Maybe I'll hold off on that.
08:29Good idea.
08:32So what happened while I was gone?
08:34What? Why? What did you hear?
08:36I didn't hear anything. That's why I'm asking you. What happened?
08:40Well, the Eddie Chloe drama continues to take years off of my life, but
08:46other than that, everything's good.
08:48What about Kelly?
08:50What about her?
08:52I mean, at work, how's she doing?
08:54Oh, um, good.
08:58You know, if she's getting in your way, you don't have to keep her on for my sake, right?
09:02Babe, can I be honest with you?
09:03Always.
09:04She's a godsend. I mean, you were right. For me to grow my business, I needed a second manager.
09:10That's great. I mean, Kelly's a really enthusiastic person, so I'm glad it's working out well for you, babe.
09:18Wait, hold up. Why do you seem so skeptical?
09:19No, it's just that, you know, you two are so alike that I figured you'd be bumping heads when I
09:25left, but it's good to know that I could leave you two alone and not have to worry.
09:29Whoa, leave? Babe, where are you going? You just got here.
09:32No, not now. Uh, but, you know, if I am traveling for business, I guess I should do that now
09:40before.
09:41Before what?
09:43Before the possibility of a family.
09:46Oh, baby, you've been doing some thinking.
09:49Uh, no, I just, you know, with the shape that my dad's in, I figure it's kind of better to
09:57have kids sooner than later.
09:59I want them to know their grandfather, and I want my dad to know his grandkids.
10:06Oh, it's okay, babe. It's okay.
10:09It's just been a hard week, babe.
10:11I know, but it's all better now, all right? I've got you, Trace. I've got you.
10:21No, go ahead. Answer it.
10:23Mm-mm. I'm here with you, Trace.
10:25Baby, I'm fine, okay? Go back to work. Go do that thing where you yell and boss everyone around.
10:40This is Jake.
10:50Let's go outside. Let's do something.
10:53I am doing something.
10:54Something productive. Something fun.
10:57Okay, you go, and I'll stay here.
10:59Honey, I know you don't like listening to me, but you remember when you were a little girl and I
11:04used to drive you around to all your pageants?
11:06Yeah, when you weren't drunk. I remember.
11:16Darling, let me manage your career. Now, look, if your career were doing better, you might be happier.
11:22And you just need someone who has your interests and mine. Only your interests.
11:33You manage me. Yeah, that's hilarious. I'm gonna go take a shower. A manager.
11:49I saw the photos of you and Eddie. Yeah. Oh, thank you, I think.
11:54Is it true? Are you dating Eddie Duran? And I have to know because I am absolutely dying and jealous
12:01and want to be your best friend.
12:04Thank you. I already have a best friend. Hi. And it's no big deal. Eddie and I are friends. Just
12:09friends.
12:10Yeah, friend now. We're just friends. There's nothing to gossip about. Stop it.
12:14This is insane in the membrane. You know, it's horrible.
12:18Horrible? Yeah. What are you saying? This is a dream come true.
12:21What? We're rock stars. Well, you're the rock star, and I am officially a hanger-on.
12:26You're like a monkey in a zoo. Yeah, but you're the prettiest, most talented monkey in the whole zoo.
12:30Hi. They're just talking to me because I'm around Eddie.
12:34No, no, no, no. Whiff. Eddie wants you. Even if he doesn't know it yet.
12:39You're bad. I'm not bad. I'm good. I'm so good.
12:41You're not. You're the worst. Hi, Cam.
12:44I'm not dating Eddie. Not that I would have to apologize if I was. I just, I'm not.
12:49So will you take us to a party with Eddie? Or just give us a call next time he comes
12:53to see you.
12:56Never had a chance, did I? Cam.
13:00You chased him away. Nice going. What, was he just too good looking for you?
13:05She's got bigger fish to fry. And by fish, I mean hot men. And by fry, I mean all kinds.
13:11All right, wrap it up your mouth.
13:12I cannot let Adriana say things like that on challenge. Why not?
13:16You really think you're going to change her opinion of me by yelling at her across the courtyard?
13:19No, but I do enjoy the yelling part. Some people are just not going to like me no matter what
13:24I do.
13:24It's the flip side to those girls liking me for no other reason other than I know Eddie.
13:29It doesn't matter. Just let it go. There's a whole herd of Adriana's out there just waiting for me.
13:34I'm sorry. Did you say a herd of Adriana's?
13:38Don't let them get to you, okay?
13:40Your life is so much better than theirs and they hate it.
13:44I hate it.
13:49Mel.
13:50The way you said that sounds like you've been waiting here for me all day.
13:54That's not true. Look, I've got homework and everything.
13:57That is a ruse. You're not even in this class.
14:00What, you think I just sit here and wait all day for you to show up?
14:03You say it like it's a bad thing.
14:04Well, good or bad, it isn't true. It's not what I do.
14:07Of course not.
14:08Anyway, what I wanted to tell you is I've been doing some digging and I have a location for Beth
14:13post rehab.
14:13Don't tell me.
14:14Don't tell you.
14:15No, I know. I begged you to do it and you did and I'm super appreciative.
14:20But?
14:20But my mom had a meltdown when I told her I was looking for her sister.
14:24Why?
14:26I don't know. Uh, something about not wanting to relive the pain and anguish Beth cause and
14:32something else. Blah, blah, blah. You know, listening is not my forte.
14:36So you don't want to know anything about her because your mom might get angry?
14:41As long as she's alive, I'm happy.
14:43She's alive. I think.
14:46Case closed. Where is she?
14:48I think-
14:49Don't tell me.
14:51Is it close to here?
14:52Is she maybe-
14:53No, no, no, no. I shouldn't know. I don't want to know. It's not worth it.
14:55I should just let this go.
14:58I can see you've got your mind made up about this.
15:01Things have been so much better between you and my mom lately. I don't want to screw that up.
15:07Okay. You let me know when and what you want to know.
15:11Thanks, Adam. You're the bestest.
15:17Someone to see you?
15:18Wait, someone? Birthday boy!
15:21How are you?
15:21Good, man. So you, uh, get our gift?
15:23I drove here, innit?
15:24You like it?
15:25I love.
15:26Listen, Lily's been calling all morning. She wants you to do an interview giving your side of the story.
15:31Oh, that lady has some nerve.
15:33Yeah, I figured you didn't want to do it.
15:34I don't.
15:35She's persistent as hell.
15:37Mm-hmm. She's like ants, you know? She just keeps coming back.
15:40Yeah. Listen, she keeps saying that Chloe's already agreed to do an interview, man,
15:43so if you don't give one, it's just going to be her giving her side of the story.
15:46Yeah, well, the funny thing is is that I can call Lily anytime, night or day, while she's sleeping, and
15:52schedule an interview.
15:53So the fact that she thinks she can goad me into one is-
15:55Very good point. Listen, one other thing I forgot to ask. How is the new material coming?
16:00Better. You know, I feel like my head's finally clearing up a little bit.
16:04Nice.
16:08Yo, yo. Hey.
16:10Hi.
16:12Today's been such a weird day.
16:14Tell me about it. I feel like Jessica Simpson's best friend. What's her name?
16:18I have no idea what Jessica Simpson's best friend's name is.
16:21Really?
16:21Yeah.
16:21Well, I thought everybody knew it's like Cece or something.
16:26Anyways, I think I might be dating Adam, so yeah, it's been a weird day.
16:28Really?
16:29Yeah.
16:30That's awesome. You guys are so adorable together.
16:32What do you mean by that?
16:33Exactly what I just said. What I've been saying this whole time. Why has that got you so worked out?
16:38I don't know. I like him at all. I just, I'm not so sure that I'm a one-man woman,
16:42Lauren.
16:43Still holding out for Ryan Gosling, are we?
16:46Oh, where is he? Why does he never call?
16:49I don't know. She's so sad.
16:52It's in my heart.
16:52It's in my heartbeat.
16:54Hey, Cam.
16:55Yeah?
16:56Look, can we talk?
16:58I don't have a lot of time.
16:59Oh my God!
17:01Do you see that?
17:02It's for Lauren.
17:04What?
17:06Holy battleship.
17:07Is that for you?
17:08I don't know. That can't, that can't be for me.
17:11Eddie is having a heartbeat on his birthday.
17:12Okay. In some cultures, you ought to be married.
17:15I'll see you later.
17:16Yeah, okay.
17:17Good fun with that.
17:17Okay.
17:18Bye.
17:49What's with all the buzz?
17:51Lauren Tate.
17:52Gross.
17:52I know.
17:53Do you want to go to the cafe?
17:54I'm starvacious.
17:56Yeah, I need to think.
17:57I have to do something about this.
17:59About what?
18:00This whole thing, okay?
18:01You saw a ride away like that.
18:03It's like a total slap in my face.
18:10I think these are the last of them.
18:13Oh, hey Eddie, what do you want us to do with the rest of these?
18:16Give everything to charity.
18:17You know, and will you guys please write thank you notes to whoever we can.
18:20Keep the fans happy.
18:21Good looking and a good person.
18:23My hero.
18:24All right.
18:25I got to head home to work on the new songs.
18:27Eddie, work.
18:28Yes.
18:30Hey, Tracy.
18:31Hey, Eddie Duran.
18:33Looking good.
18:33Good.
18:34Hey.
18:35Hey.
18:36Hey.
18:37What's wrong?
18:39Up.
18:40I was going to say what's up.
18:42Nothing's wrong or up.
18:43I came to invite my best friend out to a late lunch.
18:46Oh.
18:48Why do you look so paranoid?
18:50I just wanted to invite you to eat some food.
18:53Did you already eat or something?
18:54Because I can't eat unless Jake lets me.
18:58Go eat quick.
19:00Okay.
19:02You have me all to yourself.
19:10Hello, Miss Tate.
19:11Hi.
19:12Jeffrey, right?
19:13Thank you for remembering.
19:16You can go right up.
19:18Oh, nice.
19:22I was expecting you.
19:32Miss Tate is on her way up.
19:40Hi.
19:41Hi.
19:42Hi.
19:42You know, you didn't have to send a car.
19:44No, I wanted you to feel special.
19:45Come in.
19:46Thanks.
19:51So, um, happy birthday.
19:53Aww.
19:54You didn't have to do that.
19:57I'm excited about this one.
19:59It's a bread box, right?
20:02You know, you don't have to, um, open that right now.
20:05You can do it later.
20:06What?
20:06Come on.
20:07It's half of the fun.
20:08You gotta be here while I open it.
20:09All right.
20:09I'm closing my eyes.
20:13I needed a new one.
20:15I know I saw you ripping out the pages of your last one, so I figured.
20:25What's this?
20:26Yeah, I just started writing down some of the lyrics that I tweeted you in the past month,
20:31just in case you get stuck writing.
20:32You have a little kick start right there.
20:37Love to love you.
20:40Thank you, Lauren.
20:42It's my favorite gift today, and the label bought me a car.
20:48Make yourself comfortable.
20:49Oh, okay.
20:54Mr. Duran, sorry to interrupt, but this one's valuable.
20:58I didn't want to leave it lying around.
21:01It's from Ms. Carter.
21:02Thanks, Jeffrey.
21:03Yes.
21:08It's from Chloe.
21:12We're not really talking right now, so.
21:15She probably got it for you before you broke up.
21:17I doubt it.
21:19She gives to get.
21:22Were you gonna open it?
21:24Just go ahead.
21:26Nah, I'm good.
21:27No, come on, I'm curious now.
21:31I'm glad you're curious.
21:34Okay.
21:45It's a Rolex, and she still loves me.
21:48Wow, Rolex.
21:50It's nice.
21:51Yeah.
21:53It's not really my style.
21:55It's expensive.
21:56It's too expensive.
21:58That's why I'll be returning it.
22:02But I am here to work with you, so I don't want to think about all that.
22:21Hey, Jackie.
22:23What can I do for you?
22:24You left Chloe's without saying goodbye.
22:28I didn't realize we have that type of relationship where I need to say goodbye every time I left.
22:32I think we do.
22:34You're one of the only two people I know in this whole town.
22:37It seems like common courtesy to say, hey, Jackie, see you around.
22:42I'll remember that for next time.
22:45From what I heard, there's not going to be a next time.
22:47It sounded like you're cutting all ties with Chloe.
22:50Yeah, I am.
22:53Why would you do that now when she really needs someone?
22:56I'm concentrating on my career right now, okay?
22:59I got some heat going again, and I got to follow through with that.
23:02I can't get wrapped up in Chloe's drama.
23:04It consumes everything.
23:05I thought you loved her.
23:07She doesn't act like she loves me, and I'm tired of trying to make her happy.
23:11It's a waste.
23:12Yeah, but you know deep down she loves you.
23:15I don't know about that.
23:17I used to think so, but I held her all night.
23:20Because she was so upset that Eddie didn't believe her.
23:24And I finally thought it was sinking in, that it was over, and that I had to comfort her.
23:29But she didn't even care.
23:30I was there.
23:31No, she cared.
23:33No, she didn't.
23:33I was up all night, and I watched her, and I just kept thinking to myself,
23:38what am I doing?
23:39This isn't good for me.
23:41But a motorcycle, that's good for you.
23:43I'm goal-oriented, okay?
23:45I want the motorcycle, and I know if I work hard and if I focus,
23:48once the money starts rolling in, I can buy the bike.
23:53So you're trading in my daughter for a bike?
23:56A really nice bike.
23:57Oh, Tyler!
23:59Well, I tried, Jackie.
24:00I tried.
24:01I told her I loved her.
24:02I played by her rules.
24:04I tried everything.
24:06She doesn't want me.
24:07She's taller.
24:10Chloe needs you.
24:17It can't be that bad.
24:18It is.
24:21I never see him anymore.
24:23Well, I'm trying to lighten his load at work.
24:25Yeah, I'm sure you are.
24:27What's that supposed to mean?
24:29What do you mean, what does it mean?
24:30It means I'm sure you're trying to help.
24:31No, Tracy, it just sounded sarcastic.
24:36What are we arguing about?
24:38I don't know.
24:39What are we arguing about?
24:41I don't know.
24:42I don't know.
24:46Maybe I'm jealous.
24:48Well, there's nothing to be jealous about.
24:51I mean, you spend so much time with him.
24:53Yeah, I know.
24:54That's true.
24:55Have you noticed anything weird about Jake lately?
24:59No.
25:00Nothing.
25:01I mean, except that he's a madman and a workaholic.
25:05No, I barely see him anymore.
25:07Even when I do, he's not totally there.
25:12I'm moving out.
25:14Kelly, we love having you stay with us.
25:16Trace, you and Jake, you need more alone time.
25:18I'm moving out.
25:30What do you think?
25:32I think it's your birthday and you're serenading me.
25:38So you hate it?
25:39No, I loved it.
25:42Feels good.
25:43You know?
25:45Feels like I'm hitting my groove lately.
25:49Oh, yeah?
25:50Yeah.
25:50What's changed?
25:54You know, I didn't expect the song to be so melancholy, I gotta say.
25:58Neither did I.
25:59It just happened, you know?
26:02I feel like there's a lot of sadness that needs to come out.
26:07Well, it's cheaper than therapy.
26:09Yeah.
26:12It's not cheaper than this thing.
26:16Yeah, well, each have your own ways of dealing with it.
26:21You write songs and she buys gifts that could feed a family for a year.
26:28Lauren.
26:29Mm-hmm?
26:31You're gonna think I'm crazy for saying this.
26:34What?
26:37I do miss her.
26:39Oh.
26:40Well, I'm sure you're supposed to.
26:43I mean, you were with her for over a year, and now she's gone.
26:49You're gonna miss her.
26:51Yeah, you're probably right.
26:57Well, on that note, let me play you another song.
27:00Okay.
27:16No, that's a really nice start.
27:18Thanks.
27:19Sorry.
27:24You think I should give Chloe another chance?
27:34I'm sorry, never mind.
27:36I shouldn't have asked you.
27:38I just, I don't know all the details of what happened.
27:42You'd be the first.
27:44And the only.
27:47More presents?
27:49Probably.
27:49Yeah.
27:54Hey!
27:55Happy birthday.
27:57What up?
27:58How you doing?
28:00Lauren.
28:01Hi.
28:02Hey.
28:02I can go if you...
28:04Oh, no.
28:04Absolutely not.
28:05I want you to stay.
28:06So you can see when I got the birthday boy.
28:11No way.
28:13Martin, oh my god, it's beautiful.
28:16That's my baby.
28:17Yeah.
28:22Oh my god, that sounds so amazing.
28:28Hey.
28:30It's yours, you know?
28:32You deserve it.
28:33Just love it as much as I do.
28:36Do you want to hear my new song?
28:37Yeah?
28:38It sounds great.
28:39You're going to love it.
28:40Yeah, yeah, of course.
28:41I know, I can't believe it.
28:43It's beautiful.
28:54Dr. Doom has not cracked the golden egg.
28:58It's cold, Phil, okay?
28:59I can't just say that my dad didn't mention the clinic break-in.
29:02I don't want anyone to hear me.
29:05No.
29:05Okay, no one heard me.
29:06I know what I'm doing, Phil, but I gotta go.
29:10Bye.
29:11Who's that?
29:12Your boyfriend?
29:14Yes, actually.
29:15You guys hatch in some more capers?
29:17Shh, okay, don't be so loud.
29:18And no, we don't call them capers.
29:21But you are up to something, aren't you?
29:23Nothing that concerns you.
29:25Oh, come on, Aide.
29:27I can help.
29:28I can do stuff.
29:29Okay, like what?
29:30I've been friends with you for a long time, and I don't think that you could do anything.
29:35What?
29:36I'm crazy talented.
29:38Why?
29:38What do you need?
29:39Okay, so maybe you can be of some help.
29:41Just, let's go slow.
29:43What do you mean?
29:45Maybe you don't work with me and Phil right away on a job, which is what we call them.
29:50But I am planning something else.
29:53What is it?
29:54Wait, wait, wait.
29:55It's not something where, like, I have to be your servant, is it?
29:57I'm not falling for that.
29:58Again.
29:59Okay, no.
30:00I'm thinking of something that'll blow Lauren Tate out of the water.
30:03I don't know what that means.
30:05I have a plan to break up Lauren and Eddie.
30:08So you do think they're dating?
30:10I thought you said that was just a lie.
30:12Okay, well, I'm not totally convinced, but either way, she'll look terrible,
30:17which is what she should look like to anyone with half of a brain.
30:20What's the plan?
30:22I don't know.
30:23I'm still working on it, but when it's ready, I'll let you know.
30:27Are you in?
30:28Absolutely.
30:30I mean, maybe.
30:32What?
30:33I don't know.
31:02I think that's one of the best songs you've ever written.
31:05So is this going to be a new direction for you, or just a one-time deal?
31:12I'm not sure.
31:14You know, it feels good.
31:16It's kind of where I'm at right now.
31:18I like it.
31:19Well, I think the fans are going to follow you no matter what.
31:23Well, you know, I wouldn't say no matter what.
31:27But it's definitely not just a nice song.
31:30It's a hit.
31:31Yeah?
31:32Yeah.
31:33Okay, well, I'm going to leave you guys, um, and I'm going to head out.
31:38Or why don't you just come with us?
31:40What?
31:41Yeah, I'm just going to take Eddie out for dinner.
31:45Calm.
31:47No, I don't want to impose, and I don't want to be imposing and then not know that I'm imposing,
31:51because you're just too nice to tell me.
31:54Lauren, Lauren, Lauren, I already told you I'm not that nice.
31:58Trust me, I want you there.
31:59And if he doesn't, I do.
32:02So I supersede him.
32:04Just go get some steaks.
32:07No, I mean, thank you so much for the invite, but I feel like my mom probably has dinner waiting
32:11at home for me.
32:13In that case, there's only one thing we could do about that.
32:15Only one thing.
32:16Mom's coming with us.
32:18Yeah.
32:25Okay, red alert, red alert, this is not a drill, people.
32:28What is happening?
32:29Why are we suddenly on a submarine?
32:31Because we just got invited to go out to dinner with rock and roll legends Eddie and Max Duran.
32:36What?
32:36Yeah, it's Eddie's 22nd birthday, and his dad invited us to go to dinner with them.
32:40Whoa, why?
32:42Because we're friends?
32:44Because we were hanging out?
32:45Yeah?
32:47Did you and Eddie something happen between you two?
32:50What do you mean?
32:53Come on, you know, have you guys hooked up?
32:56Hooked up?
32:57Have you been watching MTV again?
32:59I love that awkward show.
33:00Oh, but seriously, did you?
33:02No, we did not hook up.
33:04We were just hanging out together.
33:06And besides, he doesn't think of me that way.
33:09I'm just his songwriting pal.
33:10Oh, oh, well, you know, that's, that's what, a relief?
33:14I didn't say that.
33:16Besides, I think he might be getting back together with Chloe.
33:19Oh, no.
33:21So, if we're ever going to go out to dinner with them, it's got to be tonight.
33:30So, Lauren, huh?
33:32What's that about?
33:35We're friends.
33:36I like working with her.
33:37Is that it?
33:40Yeah, Chloe and I just broke up.
33:43In other words, it's just a matter of time, then.
33:48You could see something happening.
33:51In other words, we're friends, and we need to go to dinner, so...
33:56She's a good girl.
33:57I don't want you to lead her on if you're not interested, you know?
34:00Who says she's interested?
34:01Well, if you haven't seen the way she looks at you, then you haven't been paying attention.
34:06I just want to make sure she doesn't get hurt, you know?
34:09Well, you and I both have that in common.
34:13Okay.
34:17Uh, set up a meeting for me with Lauren.
34:20Oh, you don't have to meet with her. You can just call her.
34:22No, it should be done in person.
34:23That way, I can give a real pep talk and let her know how much I have your back
34:26and how much she should listen to you.
34:28Thank you, Jay.
34:29It's no big deal. You know, these speeches are sort of my specialty.
34:33No, it's a huge deal for me. Thank you.
34:38I'm sorry.
34:39That was just like a good job, work buddy thing type of hug.
34:45Yeah. No, I know what you mean. I, uh, hug Steven all the time.
34:48You do?
34:49No, that'd be strange.
34:51You think it was strange that I hug you?
34:53No, maybe we should just, uh, ease up on the, um, affection here at the office.
34:57Does it make you nervous?
34:59Man, not much makes me nervous, Kelly, but, uh, that does.
35:04Okay. You know, I told Tracy that I was looking for a place to live. I,
35:07I don't think I should be living at your house anymore.
35:10I can't even imagine how nervous that makes you.
35:12Well, Kelly, you know I'm right about this.
35:14Yeah, I know you are, but I don't have to like it.
35:16It, you know, um, maybe I should just work from home today.
35:31Hey.
35:32Hey, what are you doing here?
35:34Uh, I finished work early.
35:38Wow, that is an early day for you.
35:40Yeah, lucky me.
35:53So, do you wish you had hooked up with Eddie?
35:56Mom, no.
35:57Lauren.
36:00There have been times where I thought that he was gonna kiss me, and it made me really nervous.
36:07But then he didn't, and a part of me was relieved, but a part of me was also kind of
36:15disappointed.
36:16I don't know what I'm saying.
36:19I do.
36:21But unfortunately, you don't know, and you can't figure it out unless you go through it.
36:28I wish there was a book.
36:31Well, maybe you have to write that book.
36:36You want to know how I really feel about him?
36:38Can you tell me?
36:41I like him.
36:43A lot.
36:45I couldn't guess that.
36:46No, it's not just having a crush on a singer like it used to be.
36:51I mean, it's different.
36:53He's, he's that guy that we had fun playing foosball and just hanging out.
37:00I mean, it's hard to think of him as the rock star anymore.
37:03He's, he's a guy that I like, a real boy.
37:08See, but that's the problem, sweetie, because he isn't a boy.
37:13He's a man.
37:15And in a lot of ways, you are this amazing young woman.
37:20But then, in some ways, you're still just a girl.
37:24And a girl can get really hurt in this situation.
37:28I just want you to be careful.
37:32All right.
37:33I'm going to go get dressed for dinner.
37:43I'm telling you, Eddie's going to destroy her.
37:45I told you.
37:46No, I'm not talking about your lying and shenanigans.
37:49What I'm talking about is that she is so obsessed with him that nothing else matters.
37:55She's going to lose work.
37:57She's going to lose her mind.
37:58She's going to lose everything.
38:00Well, there's nothing I could do.
38:01Well, you could pull her out of this.
38:03You could make her realize that this is a fool's errand.
38:06That she will never, ever get Eddie back.
38:09No, I'm done with this.
38:10Oh, God.
38:11She'll listen to you.
38:12She hasn't yet.
38:13She's a mess, Jackie.
38:14And I don't need that in my life right now.
38:16How could you say that?
38:19How do you think she got to be such a mess, huh?
38:22I don't know.
38:23You tell me.
38:26You're just as responsible as I am in this.
38:29I've made some mistakes, but you told me that I need to change.
38:33And that I need to grow up.
38:34And I listened.
38:35And part of growing up is staying away from Hurricane Chloe.
38:41You need to go now, Jackie.
38:42I got to prep for an audition.
38:45I hate to do this, Tyler.
38:48But you know what?
38:49I'm worried that interstate she could reveal a lot of things.
38:53What do you mean?
38:55Well, I know she's got a story about something that happened a couple years ago.
38:59About a car accident.
39:02Seems to me the two of you could get into a lot of trouble if she lost her senses and
39:06started talking about all that.
39:08Hmm.
39:09The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, does it, Jackie?
39:12I don't know what that means.
39:13This is exactly how Chloe would play it.
39:15The implied threat blackmail to get you to do something that you don't want to do.
39:19Well, I am here to help her.
39:21And I need you to help me do that.
39:23And you're not leaving me a lot of options.
39:25Yeah, well, I'm going to take my chances, Jackie.
39:27Because I don't think she's going to reveal any deep, dark secret anytime soon.
39:31And if she does, I'll deal with it then.
39:33But right now, I'm sorry.
39:36You gotta go.
39:39What about the motorcycle?
39:41What about it?
39:43If you help clear Chloe's head, I'll buy it for you.
39:48Look, it's a pretty good deal, Jackie, but I'm done with all this.
39:51Tell her she needs you.
39:53Chloe will be fine, okay?
39:55I'm sorry.
39:56Goodbye, Jackie.
40:01If every day is just a dream, then who would I want to be?
40:07Today I think I'll be the queen, flying through a time machine.
40:13Oh, my, my, discover what's deep inside.
40:18Oh, my, my, loving everything I find.
40:24If I woke up in a sky of blue, wondered what I ought to do.
40:30Every second there's something so brand new, so happy I'm breaking through.
40:36Oh, my, my, discover what's deep inside.
40:41Oh, my, my, so wonderful me and me.
40:47La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, oh, my, my.
