00:06Are you psychic?
00:07I was just running home to call and check on you.
00:09No, and why?
00:11Because you've been on my mind with everything you're going through.
00:14Oh, and you don't even know the latest development.
00:17Leslie filed a police report saying I assaulted her.
00:19No.
00:20Yes, and thankfully, Jacob saw the complaint and made sure he was the one to investigate it.
00:25Then he was able to make it go away, thank God.
00:27I'm sorry, I'm still just processing the idea of you assaulting someone.
00:33Not just someone, Leslie.
00:35And this does make more sense.
00:37It is beyond justified, but still.
00:39Seems more like something I would do.
00:42Aren't we a great couple of role models for our kids?
00:47There.
00:48Now the switching works.
00:50Kat, we are so close to launching, I can hardly believe it.
00:54And everyone is absolutely losing it.
00:56I wish that we were going to Illumination at the Vineyard this year.
00:59It'd be a really great time to get the word out.
01:01Where is my damn phone?
01:08You have been salty since we got up this morning.
01:11Are you going to tell me what's wrong or make me guess?
01:14Please.
01:15You know the answer.
01:16It's the same one.
01:18Eva.
01:19I just don't understand why he's always all about her.
01:23I hate to say this, and you're going to hate to hear it even more.
01:27You need to start getting over this.
01:29He is always going to be attached to her.
01:31How can you say that?
01:32Because she's his daughter.
01:34Oh.
01:35No, I'm not talking about my dad.
01:38I'm talking about Tomas.
01:47He's always going to love me, he's always going to forget.
01:48And his mom gets me.
02:03He's going to love me.
02:03He's always going to love me.
02:03He's always going to love you.
02:03I'm trying to love you.
02:04Love you.

05:30june we're not done
05:31i treated you to lunch what more do you want from me
05:37it's always fun hanging with your toots

05:46what is so important
05:48look i'm sorry i interrupted you and your
05:52friend but i really want to ask you something
05:55okay will this take long because i'm expecting jacob soon
05:58oh then i'll hurry because what i have to say is not for a police officer's ears
06:02why
06:04what have you done
06:05me nothing but i'm worried that someone close to both of us may have done something
06:13criminal
06:16okay so your question is
06:18my husband
06:20your father
06:22tell me straight naomi
06:24did he kill somebody
06:28leslie had it coming
06:29nope agreed
06:30i've never seen a face so suitable for slapping
06:35oh i do have to admit though
06:36i wish i'd shown a little restraint
06:38not gone for her throat
06:39in the middle of orphans
06:40my demure older sister
06:44brawling in front of witnesses
06:45oh how i wish i'd seen this side of you when we were growing up
06:48this is not a side i am particularly proud of
06:50i am my refined sissy is much more like scrapper danny than anyone ever imagined
06:57oh i hate being so volatile and emotional
07:01i even laid into bill last night too
07:03and i did not enjoy it it's exhausting
07:06you just need to build up your stamina
07:07and tearing bill a new one is a great way to do that
07:10i should be using my energy on my son not on leslie
07:13how is martin
07:17i would like to say well
07:19that this is so hard on him and his family
07:22i'm meeting samantha and tyrell here
07:24just wanted to give them a little normal time with grandma
07:28they are very lucky to have a wonderful and exceptional grandma who always has time for them
07:33you give me way too much credit
07:35not possible sissy
07:37need to pre-stick together huh
07:42always
07:48i went to eva's hotel room to tell her to get her half-baked mama to drop the charges against
07:54my mother
07:54imagine my surprise when i see tomas there
07:58uh-oh where they
08:00no
08:00hell no
08:01but that doesn't mean it couldn't have gotten to that place
08:05if i would have gotten there just ten minutes later all bets would have been off
08:10but that's all due to eva's manipulations
08:13drawing him into her sticky little web
08:16how did he explain being in her room
08:19something about wanting to borrow a book
08:22i didn't stick around to hear the rest
08:25so what does this mean for you and tomas
08:28i mean if he had a legit excuse for being there
08:31i'm not sure
08:32but i am not about to gift wrap him
08:35and put him into eva's hands
08:37bet if you want him he's yours
08:40okay eva it's no match for you period
08:42period
08:43that little witch needs to stop throning
08:46and settle for someone in her own league
08:55can you come over
08:57we obviously need to talk
09:04i can only imagine how hard this must be for you lately
09:10i just i wanted to make sure that you knew how difficult this was for your pop as well
09:14martin feels awful that he's been out of the house
09:17he thinks about you night and day we all do
09:21we miss him like crazy
09:23this situation must be so confusing for you
09:25and it must feel like the end of the world
09:27but it isn't
09:29you are both as dear to everyone
09:32as you were before all of this
09:34if not more
09:36the love will never change

09:41dad tells us that all the time
09:43and pop texts us the same thing
09:47but
09:49we weren't worth thinking

09:54you can tell me anything
09:56and i'll help however i can
09:57great
09:58because
10:00we were hoping that
10:02you could maybe talk
10:03dad into letting pop move back home
10:05like
10:06today
10:11listen
10:11listen i am just dying to find out what's been going on with martin
10:15i mean after that abbreviated press conference he couldn't get more attention if he tried
10:19but then when they announced that it was due to a family emergency i knew i had to check in
10:23with you
10:23is everything okay
10:25you don't have to read so much into it pammy you don't have to read so much into it pammy
10:27you know how politicians have to talk in public you can't just cut out on an event without a reason
10:33yes i do know how politicians have to talk i do know how politicians have to talk i also know
10:36a danny dupree sidestep when i hear one
10:39what did i just say about not reading too much into things huh
10:44okay all right i can tell that you don't care to share and that's just fine i know you well
10:50enough to not push
10:52thank you
10:53but you know me well enough to know that i will be here ready to listen when and if you
10:59are
11:00martin and sminny are going through a very rough patch
11:04i do believe they'll work it out
11:06they love each other so very much
11:09that doesn't go away just because your husband's disappointed you
11:12much as you might
11:13wish it would sometimes
11:16danny
11:18but they got the children to consider right so
11:21well if anybody needs anything
11:23you just say the word
11:25if i told you lately what a wonderful bff you are
11:30that's only because you deserve the very best
11:33is this dupree family check-in the reason you needed to see me right away
11:40no i have news
11:43good news i hope
11:46only you can say
11:47i wasn't expecting to see you chelsea how's it going
11:50i was on my way out giving you two some privacy
11:54use it wisely
12:01i hope i didn't interrupt but you did call
12:04that's right i did
12:08half of me was surprised to hear from you
12:11the other half was hoping to
12:14did either half think that maybe you should have been the first to call
12:18i did but the way we left it
12:21i needed time to figure out what to say
12:24the last thing i wanted was to make things worse by
12:27saying something i'd regret
12:29a lawyer afraid to use his words
12:33when there's a chance i can lose something i care about yes
12:37i want to be up front and perfectly clear with you kat
12:40i did not sleep with eva
12:42not before you got to the hotel room and not after
12:45i want to believe you
12:47but i also know what i saw in the vibe i got
12:51if there was something going on between you and eva
12:54do not insult my intelligence by denying it
12:58and please don't try to get me to confess to something i didn't do
13:03do i like eva do i think she's a good person who's stuck in a crappy situation
13:08between her mother and a family that she's sorry but it's true now a part of yes and yes
13:14and i know i'm taking my life in my hands by saying this but
13:18i don't think eva's gotten a fair shake from your family
13:21do i really need to remind you that viper in ugly boots
13:25took up space in my mother's home pretending to be her loyal assistant
13:30all the while plotting to blow up my parents lives
13:36honestly eva being a duplicitous schemer is not a surprise to me
13:40but i expected more from you
13:43so now it's time for me to be clear
13:45you just said you like eva without really elaborating what that means
13:53i've got my pride if that's who you want
13:57now's the time to say so and maybe i'll consider a friendship with you
14:02maybe
14:04eva's a friend full stop
14:06that's what you walked in on at the hotel
14:08two friends supporting each other
14:10so all you feel for her is friendship
14:13exactly
14:14and what you feel for me is
14:17what i feel for you has never been the question
14:21then what's the question
14:22your feelings for me kat
14:33excuse me you don't understand my feelings
14:37honestly no i don't i realize we're not exclusive or at least we've never discussed it but that
14:44doesn't mean i've always known where i stand with you
14:46wasn't i the one who invited you over ready to take our relationship to the next step and
14:51and weren't you the one who got uncomfortable and walked out which i'm still trying to wrap my head around
14:56by the way
14:56that makes two of us
14:58what does that even mean
15:01if you don't know why you left
15:02i can't imagine who else does
15:05it's like i didn't even matter
15:08you went to eva without ever asking what we were
15:11it wasn't like that we ran into each other at orphan jeans
15:15and then you ended up in her hotel room
15:18i promise you what happened wasn't about eva
15:21or at least not about me and eva anyway
15:24in english please
15:28sometimes i wonder if you and i are together because
15:31you like me or because you think eva does and you're trying to stick it to her
15:38have we had this one before i don't think i remember the vintage
15:41uh yes 2015 but do i need to drink this whole damn glass of wine before you explain to me
15:47what this is all about
15:49well it's not as if we weren't going to drink the whole bottle anyway
15:53yes but i will enjoy it much more when i know it's going on now stop drinking your courage and
15:58talk to me
15:59okay here it is
16:02i've been taking certain calls and meetings lately
16:06about our modeling agency
16:08without me
16:08well not so much without you but about you
16:12and i was right a danny dupree runway comeback is exactly what we need
16:19to get the industry's attention
16:21i have got two major fashion houses ready to compete for an exclusive spokesmodel contract
16:28with you and we are talking major bucks
16:31well at least you decided to include me in the conversation about me
16:37are you interested in hearing the deets or not
16:44if you have questions about my father and what he may or may not be involved in
16:49why aren't you asking him instead of me and what makes you think i would know about it
16:52because you are bill's favorite and he respects you so if something's going on
16:57he confide in you
16:58you really think he would confide in me over his own wife
17:02well bill has this tendency to want to protect me from things and right now i just want to know
17:07what's going on
17:08what's making you suspicious about whatever this is it couldn't have been something he said
17:13actually it is
17:14nicole stormed in last night on a tear and it hold up
17:17aunt nicole stormed
17:20i know but not the point she practically took his head off accusing bill or somebody of murder
17:29or at least that's what it sounded like and he all but marched me out of the room but i
17:33could hear them yelling
17:35since then it just feels like he's been avoiding me to keep me from having to ask what this is
17:42all about
17:42so what's going on naomi please you have to tell me is my husband in some kind of trouble
17:56even if i did know something i don't feel like it's my place to share it with you
18:01but don't i have the right to know
18:03that is not up to me
18:04it's your marriage and if your husband has something he thinks you should know he'll tell you
18:10but if you can't be open with each other that's your problem not mine
18:16it's hard to believe we were
18:18never friends
18:21agreed
18:23i felt the same way
18:27my husband may be a ruthless lawyer and a hard-nosed businessman but he is not a criminal
18:34i refuse to believe that bill may be involved in a murder
18:38believe what you want hayley
18:40you think you know my father but you're barely scratching the surface
18:44that man is complicated and only lets you see what he wants you to see
18:50you are right about one thing though
18:52aside from my mother
18:54i know him better than anyone
18:56and you could have knocked me over with a feather when i found out
19:00he dumped her for you
19:03that man has layers buried so deep and not all of them are pretty
19:08what are you saying
19:10that your father is a murderer
19:12i'm saying
19:13what i've said from the beginning of this conversation
19:17ask him
19:26thank you
19:28i know you are anxious for your dad and pop to work through this and for them to reconcile
19:34and we know that you can help with that you said you would
19:37i did
19:38but sometimes help comes in different forms your parents need to work through this for themselves
19:43involving somebody else is not going to make the two of them get closer together
19:47but dad trusts you he respects you
19:49but he needs to trust your pop
19:52and right now that trust is under a lot of stress
19:54yes i know that they told you what led up to this
20:00we know pop saved grandad when the racists attacked them
20:03and they didn't report to the police because they were scared they wouldn't be believed
20:09and they didn't tell us because they thought we couldn't handle it
20:12right so you see your parents have a lot to work through
20:18yes but
20:20about what is that the whole story because when dad asked pop to leave
20:26the house jacob showed up at the house three different times
20:31it feels like they're leaving something out
20:36and it feels like you are too grandma
20:41now look i i know you have reservations about returning to the runway
20:46i just decided to ignore them more like started cutting deals in my name
20:50no look this isn't just about a comeback for danny dupree this is about saving our brand new agency
20:56by proving that we can land big deals and like it or not you are a big deal i haven't
21:03committed to
21:04anything yet but look at these numbers
21:12seriously no kidding you just sign on the dotted line and the dupree curtis modeling agency is back
21:19in the black bay bee you just have to pick the number you like i don't understand why these numbers
21:25are so high false modesty does not become you i'm not being humble seriously believe me i i i'm being
21:33honest pamela i have a mirror and i know that my face isn't what it used to be when i
21:41was in my
21:41prime neither is my body for that matter listen to me you were are and will always be drop dead
21:48gorgeous even when you're in your coffin but on a more practical note these agencies want the woman
21:57that you are now these offers are for clothing lines that feature sexy mature women who are still
22:03glam and utterly gorge it's perfect for you i don't know all right okay fine it is time for me
22:13to be
22:13brutally honest you didn't quit modeling because of your age you quit because you wanted a man who wanted
22:22you off the runway and on his arm you loved him i know so you chose to put yourself second
22:31to bill in
22:31his career well it is time my darling for you to put yourself first i hear you okay good
22:41now i want to hear you saying yes i just don't know i figured you might be a little tentative
22:48about
22:49the idea thank you for understanding which is why i called for backup backup
22:57yeah somebody mentioned a mini suit
23:02you really think i'm that shallow that i would try to get with a man
23:06just to keep another woman from having him look at it from my point of view i would if it
23:12made any
23:12sense more than once i've tried to talk to you about us in our relationship only to have you turn
23:18a conversation around and make it all about eva about leslie about you and your revenge that's not
23:24the same as accusing me of wanting to be with you just to stick it to eva
23:31but if i'm looking at it from your perspective that's all i ask maybe
23:37i can see how it could appear that way i know i tend to let my anger get the best
23:45of me when it
23:45comes to eva and maybe i use it to as an excuse when it comes to you and i guess
23:55it keeps me from
23:57saying the right things kat richardson afraid to use her words ha ha ha look i know i can be
24:08a
24:08handful and with the leslie situation blowing up i've been more distracted than ever but
24:16you make me feel a way that i've never felt before and it's intense and wonderful and exciting and
24:27sometimes really really scary and maybe sometimes i don't handle things well and i'm letting strong
24:37feelings from one thing run into another but i'm just gonna say it i'm crazy about you but as much
24:49as
24:49i care and as much as i want this to work i cannot be a point in a triangle with
24:57you and eva kat you are
25:00not a point you are at the center of what i want what i've always wanted i felt something for
25:08you the
25:08moment i saw you across the room a bill and hayley's wedding a spark something real and i've been chasing
25:15that feeling whatever it is hoping that one day you'd see what i saw for us say it once more
25:23then
25:24say it so i really hear it i have a better idea i'll show you
25:47now babes this isn't to pressure you this is to remind you how good you are at this and how
25:53much you
25:53love doing it i can't believe you want me to do this right here right now well if you can
25:58think of
25:58another time and place perhaps yesterday would be good but of course there's that whole time only
26:03marches forward thing so maestro do your thing okay danny look i'm here for you okay this is all about
26:12you so do whatever feels good whatever comes natural all right i got you and you've got this

28:06is that true how can you even ask well you didn't want me to be a part of your fight
28:14with nicole
28:15last night so i went to naomi to see if she could tell me what's going on you went to
28:22my daughter i
28:23know i shouldn't have and she beat up on me to stop being a bystander to my own marriage and
28:28to ask you
28:30if i wanted to know something so i want to know something why in god's name was nicole so mad
28:41at you
28:41and how does murder fit into it because that much i did hear oh my god bill murder was she
28:49saying that
28:50you knew about a murder or what that i committed one look i'm just asking
29:01nicole is in a very highly emotional state right now understandably so considering the circumstances
29:08now out of respect for her i have to keep certain details vague okay the murder rather the unfortunate
29:18death that she mentioned that took place two years ago right i only got involved after the fact
29:27just to do what i could to help it was just a matter of self-defense basically involving
29:33so you know about the press conference that i helped martin with it got cut short so martin is right
29:38so martin
29:42martin felt that he needed to clarify something for the public about the
29:46event but during the press conference it turned out that a statement from martin wasn't necessary it's
29:52just as simple as that
29:56it's not simple at all is it look bill i'm not accusing you of lying but i can tell what
30:03you're
30:03telling me isn't the whole truth okay baby look
30:09this really isn't my story okay i'm sharing with you what i can but i can see that that might
30:15not
30:15be enough for you no no actually it's more than enough i believe what you're saying and i'm done with
30:25my questions because i love you and that's what matters right
30:47i hope you know that wasn't about sticking it to eva right now eva's the last thing on my mind

31:39Coffee on the pot, I'm on the run
31:41It's so on
31:44Yeah, I'm so on
31:50It's so on
31:51I'm so on
31:53Yeah, it's so on
32:01You know, this address isn't that far.
32:03I could be there within an hour.
32:06Alright, cool. I'll go with you.
32:08Thank you, but I think I'll have a better chance of gaining the person's confidence if I go alone.
32:13Come on, babe. It's not like I'm showing up in full uniform with the siren's blazing.
32:17No, I know, I know, but I got this, okay?
32:20And I promise, for a sign of danger, I'll bring you in.
32:23But it'll probably be nothing.
32:27This is for June, but if I'm honest, it's for me too.
32:34I'm dying to know who these kids are.
33:05Well?
33:09She's right, you know.
33:10You're magic, and the camera loves you.
33:12Look at this.
33:14You think I should do this?
33:17I think that's your call.
33:19But in the meantime,
33:22these shots have my camera figure itching.
33:25And since we're alone, how about we have a intimate session?
33:30Andre Richardson,
33:32are you suggesting a nude photo shoot?
33:36Hey, you put me through my paces last time.
33:38If I remember, turnabout's fair play.
33:42When have I ever played fair?
33:50I take it that's a yes.
33:53I thought you'd never ask.
34:12When Pop got home that night,
34:13he spent a long time talking to Dad first.
34:16Usually, they loop us into discussions that are important to us.
34:20But not this time.
34:22Which makes me think there's more going on than they wanted to tell us.
34:28When things are confusing,
34:29the way they are now,
34:31it's so easy to think that the important things are being kept from you.
34:35Your parents love you so much.
34:38Everything that they have said to you is out of that love.
34:42We all want them to get back together.
34:44For you guys to be a real family again.
34:47That is our goal.
34:49Not any of these other distractions.
34:54Listen.
34:56You know that I would never do anything to hurt you or put you in danger.
34:59Right?
35:00If I don't tell you every single detail about what I do on a daily basis,
35:04it's just that I don't want to worry you with the petty details.
35:08And I shouldn't have to say this,
35:11but I don't commit murder.
35:13I don't have to.
35:15I can get whatever I want without lifting a finger.
35:17And the fact is, killing is a fool's pastime, baby.
35:21You know, I trust that I'm much smarter than that.
35:24Oh, I know you are.
35:26And I know you'll do whatever it takes to protect me and our unborn child.
35:32No one's putting anything over on my husband.
35:35Mm-hmm.
35:36Mm-hmm.
35:38Mm-hmm.
35:39Mm-hmm.
35:40Mm-hmm.
35:40Mm-hmm.
35:41Mm-hmm.
35:43Mm-hmm.
35:44Mm-hmm.
35:44Mm-hmm.
35:46Mm-hmm.
35:47Mm-hmm.
35:59Mm-hmm.
36:01Mm-hmm.
36:11Mm-hmm.
36:15Every time I see videos of the articulates in their heyday...
36:19Oh, it still blows your mind, doesn't it?
36:20That's our grandma.
36:48We'll see you next time.
