00:36plans with Shanice mom if you're about to pop off on another ramp please spare me
00:43okay the only reason I told you dad is dating was so that you can take the hint
00:48and move on yourself not so you'd obsess over it hey I am the least bit
00:54concerned about Ted and gossip nurse mama fine Shanice I'm not worried about her
01:02because she's observant doesn't miss a trick remember how she caught on when I
01:08was trying to sneak a few forbidden Christmas decorations into Peach's
01:11hospital room it was an entire Christmas tree with tinsel and lights but go off
01:16Texas whatever anyway Ted is not ready to be dating again I mean he's just rebounding
01:25hard and someone as eagle eyed as Shanice is bound to catch on to the red flags well I have
01:35no idea how those were stuck in my sofa cushions you have been living in this hotel
01:40suite alone for months so unless you have some type of women's lingerie fetish I'm
01:44not aware of no I don't those are not mine well if that's the case there's only one
01:51explanation for them being here that makes sense to me I hate to admit it but
01:55you're right those they're Nicole's aren't they
02:15you're right
02:18you
02:20you
02:22okay
02:22you
02:33Wow, absolutely stunning.
02:36I didn't know what to wear.
02:37Did I overdress?
02:38You didn't say why you wanted me to come here.
02:41Well, stay for yourself.
02:52Happy Valentine's Day.
02:53A little early, but I know we'll be super busy getting you ready to move to Copenhagen,
02:58and I didn't want our first Valentine's Day together to fall through the cracks.
03:02So this is me, not so subtly, showing you that we can find ways to make every dream we
03:08have for our relationship and our future come true.
03:11We just have to be willing to be flexible and a little creative.
03:17I love it when you're not subtle.
03:22There's our star.
03:24Hey, thank you for making the time.
03:26Oh, no problem at all.
03:28We're talking about spinning your life in a whole new direction.
03:31For that, I am happy to answer all the questions you might have about what it's like to be the
03:35newest, hottest model on the scene, the travel, the perks, most importantly, the paycheck.
03:41That all sounds pretty sweet.
03:43Of course, there are some downsides.
03:44I'd have to be open with you about that.
03:46But if you choose to sign with us, you would have the advantage of two highly experienced
03:52agents in Pamela and me.
03:54We would steer you around any pitfalls and keep you out of trouble.
03:59I don't actually have any questions for you, Danny.
04:01I'm ready to give you my answer now.
04:05Danny's not here.
04:06Oh, I am aware.
04:07She's out meeting with Isaiah Hawthorne, hopefully convincing him to sign with our new agency.
04:12His look is so in demand right now.
04:14I say your chances are pretty good, but I'm not objective since Danny can thot me into
04:19just about anything.
04:21Actually, Andre, I'm here to chat with you.
04:24About what?
04:26I got a call today from Tatum Stewart.
04:32Sound familiar?
04:34Yeah, I know the name.
04:35She's a fashion designer, right?
04:38And what's that got to do with me?
04:41Look at that face.
04:43So innocent.
04:45I know exactly what you're doing, Andre Richardson.
04:48And I think it's genius.
04:55Let me guess.
04:56You're picking up from done cooking.
04:59Waiting on my water to be ready?
05:01Yeah, they're backed up, I think.
05:04You getting the French dip?
05:05Of course.
05:07Mac and cheese for you?
05:09Oh, you bet.
05:13How are you doing, Derek?
05:16Better.
05:18Shanice gave me a pep talk.
05:19Pep talk.
05:20Okay.
05:21Yeah, it was more like a tongue lashing, but it helped.
05:25Well, that is her specialty.
05:27Well, hey, when our food's ready, we can eat together if you want.
05:30Now that firefighting's off the table for me, I can tell you some about the career opportunities
05:34I've been considering.
05:35Oh, um, yeah.
05:37Yeah, I'm sorry, Derek.
05:39It'll have to be another time.
05:40I already have plans for tonight, so.
05:43With your mom?
05:47No.
05:48No.
05:49So then you're getting together with Grayson again.
05:50All right, you know what?
05:50I really don't feel so comfortable discussing this with you, especially given what you did
05:54to our Fijians.
05:55And then getting in his face like that at the hospital?
05:58Yeah, that wasn't cool, but you can relax, Ash.
06:01It's not like I'm going to show up at your place tonight.
06:03Or do anything else to disrupt our evening, right?
06:07Like what?
06:08I don't know.
06:09What you already did is bad enough.
06:11I'm not giving you any ideas.
06:13Come on, Ash.
06:13We're friends.
06:14I'm not going to mess with you like that.
06:16I really wish I could trust you on that.
06:19You just...
06:21You haven't made it really easy lately.
06:25It's kind of wild being offered an opportunity like the one you're laying out, especially at
06:29this point in my life.
06:30Better grab while the grabbing's good.
06:33I did give your offer a lot of thought, but I just started my academic advisory gig at
06:38Banneker.
06:39Should be a pretty easy exit, then.
06:41But I don't want an exit.
06:43It may not be runway status, but I have lots of ideas and plans, and I'm excited to see him
06:49through.
06:49Plus, it would be really disrespectful of me to just jet in the middle of the semester.
06:53You know, the job market's pretty tough for college grads right now, and I can't leave
06:57my seniors hanging.
06:59So, with all due respect, I'm going to say no.
07:03Can't say I'm not disappointed.
07:05Sorry.
07:06Can I ask you something?
07:08Sure.
07:10How much did Eva have to do with your decision?
07:14So, why are you flying solo tonight, my little birdie?
07:17What's that man of yours up to?
07:20Oh, he has something else going on.
07:22We're going to meet up later.
07:26What?
07:27Spit it out.
07:28Nothing.
07:29I mean, you didn't come at me like you usually do when I say Isaiah's your man.
07:35I mean, no lecture about how it's not that serious because we're just friends.
07:42We benefit, mama.
07:45Well, as a matter of fact, Isaiah and I had a talk the other night, and it turns out neither
07:51of us is interested in playing the field right now, so...
07:54So, he is officially your man.
07:57Yeah.
07:58I guess.
08:00That's wonderful, sweetie.
08:05All this time, here I was pressuring you to get it locked down before Valentine's Day,
08:10and you already had the whole thing handled.
08:13Yes.
08:14I didn't handle anybody but myself, mama.
08:18Do tell.
08:19Well, in the back of my mind, I was nervous that Isaiah would start listening to all the
08:24garbage Kat lays out, and the whole relationship would be talked.
08:28Then that made me jump to conclusions and get defensive with him.
08:32I almost blew the whole thing.
08:34Sweetie, you are beautiful.
08:37You are brilliant, and you are truly a joy to be around.
08:42Unlike that sister, the sourpuss.
08:47And there's never any reason for you to feel insecure.
08:52Well, getting rejected by Tomas wasn't exactly an ego booster, mama.
08:57Well, I'm sure that not-so-rico-suave regrets his foolishness by now.
09:05I don't know about that, but honestly, I can't even be mad at him.
09:09You can't?
09:11Well, I can.
09:13I mean, think about it, though.
09:15Tomas is the one who helped me see it was time to get real with Isaiah.
09:19Well, it's good to hear, for once, that Tomas, that lump, did something useful in his life.
09:27And I hope you do understand that your mama was right.
09:32Baby, you gotta believe in yourself.
09:35And everything flows when you do, right?
09:38And if you believe that you deserve good things, then you can get busy making them happen.
09:45I can't believe you are admitting this.
09:47This-this butt philosophy Leslie's?
09:49Okay, look, before you get all twisted, I'm saying that Dana must have planted those for you to find.
09:56Dana hates the fact that you and I are dating.
09:58She's made that clear to both of us.
10:00This is the exact stunt she would pull to cause trouble and give you the wrong idea.
10:07Speaking of wrong ideas, what would make you think they could be Nicole's?
10:14Because of the way you looked at her tonight.
10:22I don't understand.
10:23What are you getting at?
10:24You think somehow Nicole had time to rendezvous with me in between dates with Carlton and Kyle?
10:30No.
10:32Maybe.
10:33Okay, yeah.
10:34But only because you seemed so surprised and unhappy that Nicole was out with Kyle.
10:38Which, in my mind, makes sense if you thought you and Nicole were getting back together.
10:41Shanice, if anything like that were going on between Nicole and me, I would have never asked you out in
10:47the first place.
10:48No.
10:49You wouldn't be the first guy I dated that still had a burning desire for his ex.
10:53Which, honestly, that part I can understand.
10:56Nicole was the love of your life.
10:59But the marriage is over.
11:01Nicole and I have moved on.
11:03Dana's the one who can't seem to do that.
11:05I'll put money on it.
11:07She's the one who stuffed the underwear in my sofa cushions.
11:13Have you let her in recently?
11:15No.
11:16Then how would Leslie get in here?
11:20Bribery.
11:21I wouldn't put a pastor to wave money at an employee or make up some crazy story about how she
11:27needed to get in here.
11:28Just like she got past you at the hospital pretending to be a new nurse on the floor.
11:33Don't remind me of that episode.
11:34I still feel bad about it.
11:36I swear to you, when I see her, I'm going to give her hell.
11:39This is absolutely unacceptable.
11:44But you know what?
11:46Let's not give her the satisfaction of ruining all night.
11:49Huh?
11:52I'm going to go.
11:54Shanice.
11:55No, no.
11:56It's not even about the underwear.
11:57I believe you about that part.
11:59But the vibe was off between us even before then.
12:02I wish I could make you understand.
12:04Ted, stop.
12:06I saw what I saw.
12:08And as much as I like you, I never want to feel like I'm someone's consolation prize.
12:16I know that Eva and you are friends.
12:18She's my girlfriend, actually.
12:20It's no secret that Eva and her mother have their own history with my family.
12:26I hope she's not discouraging you from taking this opportunity simply because it's coming from a dupree.
12:31Aside from her reminding me she likes my looks, Eva didn't weigh in.
12:35It's my decision.
12:36Then you're turning it down.
12:39It's probably hard for somebody like you to understand why I do that.
12:42Somebody like me.
12:45Maybe I should just come at you on a real tip.
12:48Facts are, it wasn't easy for me to get to where I'm at right now.
12:51I mean, there's a whole lot of alternate universes out there in which I messed up just as bad as
12:55people thought I would.
12:57So, for the time being, I'm good with appreciating what I got.
13:01And helping the kids I work with find the same kind of satisfaction.
13:06Surprising though it may be, I do understand.
13:11You're practicing what you preach to the kids you counsel.
13:15Showing them the importance of following your truth so that you can get the life you really want.
13:21But, they're lucky to have you.
13:24And, I hope that means that you'd be willing to speak to the occasional student who's interested in fashion.
13:28Of course.
13:30And, you know, if for whatever reason, circumstances change and you want to reconsider,
13:36the offer still stands.
13:39Well, I'll keep that in mind.
13:42Take care, Isaiah.
13:43You too.
13:45Oh, you make a splendid martini, Andre, but a less splendid subterfuge artist.
13:51You think I'm hiding something?
13:53Tell me how you arranged to meet with Tatum in New York.
13:57I didn't arrange anything.
14:00We ran into each other on the street.
14:03Please.
14:04I swear I'm telling the truth.
14:07We're old friends, but it's been a minute since I hung out with Tatum.
14:10So, we went to get coffee.
14:12And, she already knew about me and Danny's wedding since the Vegas pig.
14:16So, when the subject of modeling came up, I told her that Danny would be open to do it again.
14:21Modeling.
14:23You are the best husband.
14:25Well, it's not like it was a hard sell.
14:28Danny is the perfect fit for Tatum's new line.
14:31But, we both know how she'd react if she heard that the idea was mine to start out with.
14:36Oh, it's stubborn Dupree pride.
14:39Danny has it in spades.
14:40She would spit nails if she thought anyone was pulling strings on her behalf.
14:45And, this was nowhere near that.
14:47I barely even floated the idea, but Tatum was right there with it.
14:52But, I did tell her that she probably would have better luck if she kept my name out of it.
14:56I see.
14:58Yeah.
14:59So, did Tatum mess up the plan?
15:01Did she spill?
15:02How did you catch on?
15:04Well, Tatum let it slip that she ran into you in New York and I put the pieces together.
15:08But, don't worry.
15:09I'm not going to say anything to Danny.
15:11After Danny makes her decision, then we'll let her know how the offer happened.
15:15Yes.
15:15I just don't want to be the one to make her turn it down.
15:18Oh, as it is, we're going to have our work cut out for us convincing Danny to say yes.
15:22She's got so much on her plate with her mother's illness and finding out she carries the same Bracca gene.
15:28Yeah.
15:29Danny definitely needs some positivity in her life, for sure.
15:32She can't keep dwelling on that.
15:35Agreed.
15:35So, you work on your end.
15:37I'll work on mine.
15:38Mm-hmm.
15:39We'll make this happen.
15:45Just keep it all.
15:52Oh, so what are we having?
15:54Well, my original plan was to order traditional Danish cuisine, but not only can I not pronounce words like starneskleth
16:01and more bradgrutha,
16:02I didn't think that a big plate of fried pork belly or calf liver would really fit the vibe I'm
16:08going for.
16:09It's probably more in keeping with a Valentine's theme to go heart healthy anyway.
16:13But I think you'll be happy with the menu, all your faves, just to show that I've been paying attention.
16:19My gran says that that's the key to long-lasting love.
16:23Wow.
16:24Too short-distance romance.
16:26Clearly the best kind.
16:28Just you wait.
16:29We'll find ways to make long-distance just as romantic and exciting.
16:33Well, if anyone can crack that code, it's you.
16:41Okay, you know what?
16:42I think I should just wait for my food somewhere else.
16:45Ashley.
16:47Things are really intense between us, and I know it's my fault.
16:52How can I fix it?
16:53Well, for starters, you could stop being so weird around Grayson.
16:58Am I really the only one that sees it?
17:01I don't know what you're talking about.
17:03There's something off with the guy.
17:06Okay, how convenient that you're suspicious of the guy that I'm dating.
17:10It's got nothing to do with...
17:11Tell me this is your unbiased opinion.
17:12You want me to admit I'm jealous of the guy?
17:15I am.
17:16But this isn't that.
17:19You're just making excuses.
17:21I was jealous as hell of Andre, but I knew he was basically a good guy.
17:24But with Grayson?
17:27It's different.
17:29Okay.
17:32What exactly is your problem with him?
17:34It's hard to describe.
17:37He's...
17:38He's slick.
17:39No, he's...
17:40He's shady.
17:43It's...
17:43It's like he's hiding something.
17:45Okay.
17:46Tell me you know that you're projecting right now.
17:49I mean, you accusing someone of hiding something from me?
17:51Okay, all right.
17:52I know how it sounds.
17:53Okay.
17:54But I'm telling you, it is a bad idea to trust that guy.
17:59Derek, I can't.
18:00I can't.
18:01Ash, I've always had good instincts about people.
18:03You know that.
18:06Look, if it's this hard for you to see me moving on, then maybe we should just keep our distance
18:10for now.
18:13Oh, am I mixing these because we're celebrating or because we're defeated?
18:17Well, the news isn't great.
18:18Isaiah turned us down.
18:20Oh, no.
18:21Why?
18:22We're fabulous.
18:23Any model with have a brain cell would want to work with us.
18:26That's the problem.
18:26He doesn't see himself as a model.
18:28He likes the job he has.
18:30Ah, which is?
18:31He's a counselor at Banneker helping students to discover their true calling in life.
18:35Well, that's beautiful and fabulous, but for what?
18:40I mean, mid-five figures, maybe.
18:42It's what he wants.
18:44Well, all right.
18:45Well, that's a shame.
18:46But it's all right because when one door closes, another extremely attractive one opens.
18:51To tell.
18:52I got a call today from Tatum Stewart.
18:56Tatum Stewart.
18:58Tatum is a hugely talented designer.
19:01I'm aware.
19:02You know, the thing I like best about Tatum is that she started out working for these big fashion houses,
19:07but recently she struck out on her own.
19:09Created her own label.
19:10Yeah, Pamela was just filling me in before you got home.
19:13So she's looking for models?
19:15One in particular, you.
19:19Tatum wants Danny Dupree to be the face of her new line.
19:24Me?
19:25What?
19:26Are you that serious?
19:27Tatum has very wisely targeted women of a certain income bracket,
19:31which means women of a certain vintage.
19:34They'll remember your earlier successes and be thrilled to see you coming back for your second act,
19:39living life to the fullest,
19:41which is exactly the spirit Tatum wants to capture in her new designs.
19:45The bold choices.
19:47The joie de vivre.
19:49And who better to represent that than you?
19:52Oh, this is the last thing I imagine.
19:56I gotta wrap my head around it.
19:57Of course, of course, of course.
19:59I will leave the two of you to discuss.
20:01Bye.
20:03Love you, Bob.
20:04Love you.
20:05Thanks, Pam.
20:07Oh, my word.
20:11So what do you think?
20:13I don't see how you could turn it down.
20:17I am going to be consulting with a landscape architect soon about the new house.
20:23That's great, Mama.
20:24You should come.
20:26Give your input.
20:28Well, I don't think I would have much to contribute,
20:31considering I've never even had a yard.
20:33And that is exactly why you should come, honey.
20:36Come on.
20:37Um, we didn't have these things when you were growing up, but now we can, right?
20:43And there's this spot in the back where I want to put, like, this meditation garden with a pergola.
20:50Is that like a gazebo?
20:52Um, actually, it was more like a freestanding wooden canopy thingy.
20:58That's what I want.
21:00That and a fountain and statues of perfect male specimens that I can just stare at while I am finding
21:14my center.
21:16Mama, you don't meditate.
21:18Mm-mm.
21:18That's when you are wrong, baby.
21:20Okay?
21:21I have been meditating a lot lately.
21:24On what?
21:25On how much money I have.
21:27Chit-ching.
21:30I mean, the garden can be the perfect place for you to have a wedding down the line.
21:36Mama.
21:36What?
21:37I'm not even comfortable calling Isaiah my boyfriend.
21:40It is way too early to be talking weddings.
21:44All right, all right.
21:45Look, I will just work it out with the landscape of myself.
21:48And you don't even have to be involved, Miss Thing.
21:51You are so extra, Mama.
21:54On that we agree.
21:56I believe those belong to you.
21:59Oh, my goodness.
22:01Did I leave those in your hotel room?
22:04Oh, yeah.
22:05Right where Shanice would find them.
22:09Oh, no, Mama.
22:13Oopsie.
22:18I think you've lost what little mind I credited you with.
22:21What did you think this stupid stunt would accomplish?
22:24Oh, Dad, please take it easy, all right?
22:27Maybe you should prescribe yourself something.
22:29Or you're not.
22:30I'll tell you what.
22:30Better yet.
22:32Why don't you join me in taking some deep breaths?
22:37Dad, I am so sorry.
22:38Okay, I can kick myself for saying anything about Shanice to her.
22:41Dana is not your responsibility.
22:43This is all on her.
22:45I've been making a sincere effort at a friendship with you for our daughter's sake.
22:49And this is how you show me how you appreciate it.
22:51By trying to screw up my relationship.
22:54Don't tell me that Nurse Ratched is upset about my little joke.
22:58Well, you'd love that, wouldn't you?
23:00If she wasn't.
23:00Just baffled about how long it's taking for you to get the message.
23:04So maybe I can spell it out for you, huh?
23:07I am not interested in you.
23:13Got it?
23:15This us is never going to happen.
23:18And stay the hell out of my room.
23:21Dad made me lower the volume.
23:25What happened to you, teddy bear?
23:27What happened to your sense of humor?
23:30I mean, now you're just this regular sad sack.
23:34We used to laugh together at just about anything.
23:39And we would talk about everything under the sun.
23:42But look at you now.
23:44Why so serious?
23:47You know, you are liable to have a stroke.
23:50There's nothing funny about you, Dana.
23:53All you are is a pain in my ass.
23:59You know that stuff will kill you.
24:02The risk you take when you're eating your feelings.
24:05Gotta drown in the melted cheese, huh?
24:08I might need to get myself some of that.
24:11So I'm not the only one having a night?
24:13That Ted's grew up.
24:16I don't even want to get into it.
24:18You know how I feel about wallowing.
24:20I did wallowing.
24:21Now I'm pondering.
24:22Whole other category.
24:25Share the ponder.
24:27How much do you know about this guy, Grace?
24:34What is your most used emoji?
24:41Ashley?
24:43Derek and I used to take these quizzes all the time.
24:46Thinking they would confirm if we were right for each other.
24:52They always did.
24:56So they were wrong.
24:59Ask safe questions, get safe answers.
25:04What do you want to ask me?
25:05Tell me something true.
25:10You can't do that.
25:16Sometimes it hurts to remember how I was when I was a kid.
25:22So open and honest.
25:25I used to tell people when I grew up I wanted to be a pharmacist because that's what I thought
25:29you'd call it when you work on a farm.
25:34Well, that's adorable.
25:37No one ever corrected you?
25:38No, they took me at my word.
25:42They sent me to a bunch of science camps.
25:45Now I work in a lab.
25:47Do you ever still wish you were a farmer?
25:51Sometimes.
25:55Do you ever wish you were still with Derek?
26:02Truth?
26:05No.
26:10Truth?
26:13I'm not always a good guy.
26:16And I am so sick of being a good girl.
26:21Seems like we're a perfect fit.
26:28That food slapped.
26:30Like, for real, for real.
26:33Look at you with the Gen Z talk.
26:35I thought you might like that.
26:37But I think you mean to say that the food was lecha.
26:40Oh my god, you were really trying to learn Danish.
26:43Well, of course.
26:44I may not be moving with you to Denmark, but I do still plan on coming to visit.
26:48And I'm going to have to be able to get around.
26:51But my favorite phrase that I've learned thus far is...
26:56Will du dire me?
26:59Something to do with gifts?
27:01Look it up on your phone.
27:03Okay.
27:05Okay, translator app.
27:07Where are you?
27:07Oh, here it is.
27:08Okay, go on.
27:10Will du?
27:11That's will you.
27:14Gifta is with an E.
27:16And then D-I-G-med-M-I-G.
27:22That's will you marry me.
27:57I gotta go.
27:58Wait, what's going on?
28:01Oh, I can't really get into it.
28:12For everything.
28:23It's hard to describe.
28:25He's slick.
28:26No, he's shady.
28:27It's like he's hiding something.
28:33Why are you asking me about Grayson?
28:35He rubs me the wrong way.
28:37There's something about him.
28:39He seems evasive.
28:42Slick.
28:43In a bad way.
28:44I don't know, Derek.
28:45I can see why Grayson might be uncomfortable chatting it up with Ashley's grouch ex.
28:49So you just think what Ashley thinks.
28:52That I'm jealous and biased and looking for something to be wrong with the guy.
28:55Maybe, maybe your time and energy might be better spent on your own love life.
29:01Derek, I hope you know I'm really rooting for you.
29:05I feel the same about you.
29:07I hope Ted gets his act together.
29:11Damn it.
29:12Whoa.
29:13What's that about?
29:14We have to reset the clock.
29:16Which clock?
29:17Days.
29:18Since my mom wanted to do something insane.
29:21Look, we're back at zero and you wonder why I have trust issues.
29:24You want to back up?
29:26Tell me what's going on.
29:28Brace yourself.
29:29So my dad is dating someone new and my mom isn't handling it well.
29:34What's so odd about that?
29:36She snuck into his hotel room and planted a pair of panties in there
29:40to try to make the other woman believe that her and my dad are doing it behind her back.
29:49That's not funny.
29:50Yeah, but it could be so much worse.
29:52I mean, I was half expecting you to say she put itching powder or bed bugs in the sheets.
29:58That's not a comforting thought since it's probably what she'll do next.
30:02But now that you know I come from crazy,
30:04you're probably wondering what the hell you've got yourself into.
30:08It's okay.
30:09You don't have to answer in Danish.
30:11Chelsea, the ring is stunning.
30:14But didn't we agree that it's way too early in the relationship for this?
30:17We agreed that it was a bad idea to blurt out a proposal in a state of panic,
30:21but that's not what this is.
30:25I am asking you to marry me.
30:28After lots of careful consideration because I am so excited for our future.
30:34And I know that we can get through anything,
30:37even through you turning me down, if it comes to that.
30:41Chelsea, I'm the happiest with you than I've ever been.
30:46And we've gotten through some really difficult issues.
30:49But right now, things are so up in the air.
30:58You don't actually think I'm going to be scared off by your mom, do you?
31:02I know people have advised you to avoid both of us.
31:06And I know it hasn't just been Kat.
31:08Those same people have probably tried telling you to cut ties with her.
31:10Or testify against her.
31:12I could never do that.
31:14Why not?
31:16Because she raised me.
31:18And she took good care of me most of the time.
31:21And even though she stresses me out,
31:24I never want her to feel like she doesn't have anybody to turn to.
31:28I have friendships like that.
31:30People in my family would not want me around.
31:33But you know what?
31:36They looked out for me when I needed it most.
31:38So I would never turn my back on them.
31:41And I wouldn't ask you to do that to your mom,
31:42if that's what you were thinking.
31:44Isaiah, you have no idea how much that means to me.
31:49But I don't think you get just how wild she can be.
31:52Mama can really go off the rails sometimes.
31:56Like, when we moved here, I was all about her stories.
32:00I mean, who else did I have?
32:02So I stood by her.
32:04But once I met my dad,
32:06I slowly realized how sucked in I'd gotten.
32:10And now I can see just how deep her crazy is.
32:15And that's something you've always had to deal with on your own, isn't it?
32:20Yeah.
32:21Well, guess what?
32:23Not anymore.
32:25You have me.
32:26And Eva, I'm all in.
32:29One hundred percent.
32:34I guess the question is,
32:36now that you're going to be the face of her new line,
32:39how do you feel about Tatum's work?
32:41She is talented.
32:44Of course, I haven't seen anything from the new line,
32:46but judging from her past work, it'll be fabulous.
32:48She's, well, Stiles, just like Pamela said,
32:51it's bold, it's fun-loving.
32:53She never plays it safe.
32:55Sounds just like someone else I know.
32:57There's no wonder why she wants you to be her muse.
32:59I am honored that Tatum wants me.
33:03But?
33:04I'm just not sure about the timing.
33:06I don't want Nicole or my parents
33:08to feel like I'm bailing on them in a crisis.
33:10I'm going to stop you right there.
33:12I'm sure none of them will feel that way.
33:14If anything, they'll be excited
33:16that you're reviving your career.
33:18After all those years of taking a backseat to Bill.
33:22Besides, Tatum wants you.
33:24At least that's the impression that I got from Pamela.
33:27And that means that you could probably negotiate
33:29for some accommodations to keep you closer to home
33:31whenever possible.
33:33Why are you so eager to make this happen?
33:38Because I still feel bad
33:40that you gave up the Forrester creation shoot
33:42for my sake.
33:43You shouldn't.
33:45But it felt like the opportunity of a lifetime.
33:48And now you have another one.
33:51So,
33:53whatever I have to do to make this easier,
33:55that's what I'll do.
33:57You have no idea how grateful I am
33:59to have a husband who is as supportive as you.
34:02You're the best.
34:05I'm going to remind you of that later.
34:10You keep saying that things are up in the air.
34:12What are we talking about?
34:15Our relationship is about to become long distance.
34:17We don't know how that's going to work out.
34:20We don't know how, but we know it will.
34:24Because we never give up.
34:26And we're always trying to be the best for each other.
34:30I can't argue with that.
34:31Yeah.
34:33And we don't pretend like there isn't a problem
34:36until it blows up like my parents.
34:38So, I know.
34:39This is all happening really fast.
34:42But
34:44I could look for the next 50 years.
34:47And I know
34:48I will never find a better partner
34:50that I would want to do life with.
34:53I feel the same way.
34:55And I know that you're a planner.
34:57And I love that about you.
35:00But just this once.
35:02Can we do things my way?
35:04Be wild and spontaneous?
35:06Hey, give me some credit.
35:08It wouldn't be the first time.
35:14The fortune from the cookie on our first date.
35:17That's right.
35:18Is said to go for it.
35:19And you have to admit,
35:21I did.
35:23Have you ever been sorry you did?
35:31Madison Montgomery.
35:34Will you marry me?
35:37Yes.
35:40Here.
35:43I'm shaking.
35:56Next, on Beyond the Gates.
35:58We are about to host a very special guest.
36:01Die!
36:02I love you, Pam!
36:03Chelsea and I worked everything out.
36:05We're engaged.
36:07How far are you planning on going with this?
36:10You ain't getting soft on me, are you?
36:11Hell nah.
36:11Where I gotta go and who I gotta see.
36:13Far enough to prove myself.
36:17Crazy bitch!
36:18You should divorce yourself from this door.
36:20I'm not leaving until I speak with this, man.
36:21Are you going through?
36:24I don't know.
36:28I love you, Pam.
36:29I love you, Mike.
