00:00:24The visualization of the goal is only the first step.
00:00:27As we discussed today, it's the execution of the goal that separates us.
00:00:33Peyton!
00:00:34Getting your morning mindset right?
00:00:36My girl Mindy is especially on fire this morning.
00:00:39You have to hear the newest upload.
00:00:41I did, at breakfast.
00:00:42And like always, you're right, she's perfect for us at shake-up.
00:00:46I just have to get Olivia on board.
00:00:48Well, you have a ratings meeting today.
00:00:50Perfect opportunity to pitch.
00:00:52And as per Mindy, I have visualized my goal.
00:00:56Now I just have to execute it.
00:00:57Which you always do.
00:00:59Oh, no.
00:01:00Don't look.
00:01:02He's everywhere.
00:01:04I'm sorry.
00:01:06You know what?
00:01:08Mindset shift.
00:01:09That was the past, and I am so done with that chapter of my life.
00:01:13I am ready to focus on the future.
00:01:15And the future is bright.
00:01:16Yes, it is.
00:01:18Seriously, though?
00:01:20Right in front of our office?
00:01:26Shake-up is expanding, which is why you'll be taking over good vibes while I focus on new talent.
00:01:33Wait.
00:01:34Where's Felicia?
00:01:36She's going live today in ten minutes.
00:01:41Again?
00:01:51Felicia?
00:01:52Felicia?
00:01:53Remember what happened last time?
00:01:55You embraced the fact that your vibrations were off, and you went on to have a breakthrough that day.
00:01:59It's not always about being perfect.
00:02:04Listen, I know that you're hesitant about going live, but I've got your back.
00:02:09Trust your talent.
00:02:15You're right, as always.
00:02:17Embrace the truth, and the flow will come.
00:02:20Exactly.
00:02:21Now, come on.
00:02:22We've got one minute to find that flow.
00:02:29When love vibes are present, there is no mistaking them.
00:02:33The good news is that you can literally recite your love vibrations to attract the love you want.
00:02:38Now hit them with your sign-off.
00:02:40And who doesn't want to find love?
00:02:42I'm Felicia, and remember to feel good vibes only.
00:02:47Thank you so much.
00:02:59Thank you so much.
00:03:01I couldn't do this without you.
00:03:02It's all you.
00:03:03You're the talent.
00:03:04I'm going to miss you so much.
00:03:06I'll be around, and you'll be in great hands.
00:03:08Hey, maybe now's the time to read your love vibes.
00:03:12Oh, yikes.
00:03:13No.
00:03:14But like I promised, when the time is right.
00:03:17Remember, with love, timing isn't everything.
00:03:20So I've heard.
00:03:22Speaking of time, I have a meeting in two minutes.
00:03:25You coming?
00:03:26Now?
00:03:26When inspiration strikes, we must act.
00:03:33Okay.
00:03:36Okay.
00:03:51How's training going with your replacement?
00:03:54Carissa should be up and running in no time.
00:03:56Good.
00:03:56Because we need to get you onto your next project sooner than expected.
00:03:59Yes, that's great.
00:04:00I actually wanted to talk to you about that.
00:04:02So I think Mindset Mornings with Mindy is the show to target.
00:04:05Yes, I saw the presentation you sent over.
00:04:07She's just the perfect fit for the brand I've built.
00:04:10She's already got the steady numbers.
00:04:12I know I can get her to that next level.
00:04:13Yes, but what is that next level?
00:04:14Good?
00:04:15Not really good, but not great?
00:04:17Your ratings are solid, but not wow.
00:04:19What you need next is a wow factor.
00:04:21People want a true star personality.
00:04:24A show that can be the mothership for the whole company.
00:04:27I have just that star.
00:04:29Okay, great.
00:04:30I'm ready to be wowed.
00:04:32Alex McKinney.
00:04:34The TV host?
00:04:36Yes.
00:04:37I'm waiting for the wow to set in, and I'm not sure I'm feeling it.
00:04:41He's a little brash.
00:04:44He is a star.
00:04:46We've just worked so hard to build our following in the health and wellness sector,
00:04:50so I'm scared that he would be, how do I say this nicely, lowbrow?
00:04:56I mean, his show is called Bringing It, right?
00:04:58Yes, and I think his built-in numbers will bring the audience.
00:05:01Like, maybe it is time we mix things up.
00:05:04This is the arena we need to be playing in.
00:05:07What would his show even entail?
00:05:09I am sure he will come loaded with ideas.
00:05:11Of course, this all depends on if we can actually land him.
00:05:14Or should I say, if you can land him?
00:05:16Me.
00:05:17Forget everything else.
00:05:19All we need to focus on is getting Alex McKinney to shake up.
00:05:23Okay, um, I'm really trying.
00:05:27I am, but I don't see it.
00:05:30I really think that Mindy is...
00:05:31Yeah, and I think we need to get you to that next level.
00:05:35Do you think he could get me there?
00:05:37I know you've been eyeing that senior lead producer position.
00:05:40Get Alex on board.
00:05:42Get him thriving.
00:05:44And I am certain we can make that happen.
00:05:48Okay, well then I will do my best to bring it.
00:05:53Oh, I'm on it.
00:05:55Yeah.
00:05:59I know, and I'm really sorry, Mindy.
00:06:03Yeah, just a small shift in our mindset.
00:06:06But I'll let you know if anything changes.
00:06:09Okay.
00:06:38Prepare as if you know the outcome, but always be willing to adapt.
00:06:49I'm okay.
00:07:02I mean, I still don't get what Olivia sees in him,
00:07:06but if it's my job to deliver, then I guess that is what I'll do.
00:07:10He's cute.
00:07:11And charming.
00:07:13And cute.
00:07:15Mm-hmm.
00:07:16And by his last few months of post, seemingly single.
00:07:20Good for him.
00:07:21Maybe good for you.
00:07:22Uh, absolutely not.
00:07:24All I want is just to complete this assignment
00:07:27so we can focus on doing what we do best.
00:07:30Which is not Alex McKinney.
00:07:33If you can turn Mr. Blah into Mr. Epic Life,
00:07:37I'm pretty sure you can do the same with Alex.
00:07:40Well, I have to land him first.
00:07:42Mm-hmm.
00:07:44Ah, speaking of...
00:07:47He responded.
00:07:48Would love to meet up.
00:07:497 a.m. tomorrow.
00:07:51Be ready for an adventure.
00:07:52I'll send a location.
00:07:54An adventure?
00:07:58Can't wait.
00:08:02I can't wait.
00:08:06Worst one, I'm sorry, but the worst one was in the sequel
00:08:08when you were trying to be all serious and you were just like,
00:08:10I'm an American with a British, I said.
00:08:13You just kept going in and out.
00:08:14It was like, American, then look at your stuff.
00:08:16And you can't take a joke?
00:08:19I guess you can't take a joke.
00:08:21Anyway, we will be right back on bringing you.
00:08:23This is what my future depends on.
00:08:27Oh, boy.
00:08:38Touching down in three, two...
00:08:41Oh, find you.
00:08:42Oh!
00:08:45You look exactly like your pics.
00:08:48Like pics?
00:08:49Yeah, I gotta say, you keep a pretty low profile online.
00:08:51There's not a whole lot of information about you
00:08:53floating around on cyberspace, Miss Peyton Pepper.
00:08:57Well, I can't say the same about you.
00:08:59Yeah, well, a fun fact about me that you won't find online,
00:09:02when I'm making big decisions,
00:09:03I like to make sure that my engines are firing on all cylinders.
00:09:07Yeah, anyone can talk over coffee or sitting at a desk, right?
00:09:10Right.
00:09:12Well, once we get you changed, we'll strap this on,
00:09:15and up we go.
00:09:17Oh, this is all I have.
00:09:19I said dress for adventure.
00:09:21You said be ready for an adventure, and I'm ready.
00:09:24But the blazer says adventure to you.
00:09:26Yeah?
00:09:27I gotta say, I'm pretty surprised.
00:09:29In your email, you said how much you prided yourself on preparation.
00:09:32Well, yes, I think I was referring to my preparation.
00:09:34Not a great first impression.
00:09:36Just saying.
00:09:38Shall we?
00:09:39Yeah.
00:09:42Oh, yeah.
00:09:43Lose the blazer?
00:09:45Good idea.
00:09:46Thanks.
00:09:47Right here?
00:09:48Yeah, just put your feet right there.
00:09:50Okay.
00:09:51And this goes over your hips.
00:09:55And then just...
00:09:56Yeah, it's gotta be a little snot,
00:09:59because if it's too loose,
00:10:00then you could snap a leg or pop a disc out of place.
00:10:03It's perfect.
00:10:04It can't be too safe.
00:10:10I don't know.
00:10:11I just feel like my audience needs to see me and feed off my energy, you know?
00:10:16Yeah.
00:10:17Yeah.
00:10:17Yeah.
00:10:18Successful show to experiment with something new.
00:10:20And it would be an adjustment, but that's where I can help you.
00:10:24You know, I would be thrilled to work with your array of talents.
00:10:29And this was your idea?
00:10:31Yep.
00:10:31Well, the whole team.
00:10:32Actually, we just feel that you're a real game changer.
00:10:36But mostly you.
00:10:38You've just got that wow factor that I look for in a host.
00:10:41If I'm going to choose Shake Up over everyone else,
00:10:47it means we have to trust each other, right?
00:10:49Yes.
00:10:50Do you trust me?
00:10:51I mean, trust comes in many forms.
00:10:55In one way, it's with an act of trust,
00:10:57meaning we actually have to climb up this wall.
00:11:02I know.
00:11:04Okay.
00:11:05I'm ready.
00:11:06Yeah?
00:11:06Yep.
00:11:06Okay.
00:11:07Left foot up.
00:11:08Push up with your right foot.
00:11:09Push.
00:11:10Push.
00:11:11You got it.
00:11:12Right?
00:11:13Yeah.
00:11:14Yeah, it really grinds the gears.
00:11:16And then just repeat.
00:11:19You got it.
00:11:20Do it again.
00:11:21And I'll see you at the top.
00:11:22Oh, wait.

00:14:56movement of our symphony
00:15:00bring it okay first rule you can never say that again deal so what do you think your podcast would
00:15:07be about i think it could be about a lot of things okay i was actually kind of hoping that's
00:15:14what was on
00:15:14this list oh these are your strengths and weaknesses um but we need a focus
00:15:26did you hear me yeah we need to focus

00:16:05actually
00:16:06taste a potato through the grease so as i was saying i've narrowed down your skills to strengths and
00:16:12weaknesses let's look at the strengths okay well you're great at getting people to open up and talk
00:16:18so i was thinking we could do a series on the art of conversation
00:16:22sounds boring
00:16:26next
00:16:27okay uh well since health and wellness is our focus and everything that we do
00:16:33hold on maybe i can change all that
00:16:36no i'm not be the game changer that you speak of
00:16:40like i said you need a focus you can't just wing it
00:16:43sure i can this is what i do
00:16:45no you can't
00:16:46yes i can
00:16:47i need this to work
00:16:48okay
00:16:51so if you could just
00:16:53try to listen to me

00:16:58that's when the magic happens

00:17:03watch
00:17:05pick a topic
00:17:06okay
00:17:08love
00:17:10i could do an episode on anti-love
00:17:12not so much finding love more so
00:17:14focusing on yourself and
00:17:16being
00:17:18happy alone
00:17:19okay that's interesting
00:17:20like
00:17:21not feeling incomplete just because you're single
00:17:24because you hold people to high standards
00:17:26right
00:17:26so it would be more about
00:17:28self-love
00:17:28ah
00:17:29exactly
00:17:31oh
00:17:31and i could get spencer hart the love doctor to come on as guest

00:22:34as always
00:22:44okay okay so yeah dating issues
00:22:49as you probably know love is the one thing in my life that i've never really been able to master
00:22:57that's it
00:22:58that's it
00:22:59you can help jackie gray find love
00:23:03we can follow along on a series
00:23:05we've been trying to do more non-traditional podcasts this would be perfect
00:23:08we could call it jackie finds love
00:23:11i do know her whole dating history and patterns we could culminate the series with a final event
00:23:16sell tickets to attend the event and reveal if you found love or not
00:23:20i've been looking for a platform to launch my newest charity interest
00:23:23yes of course we'll do it all for a good cause
00:23:26it's very jackie
00:23:28you would be fantastic at it
00:23:29if you're willing to share your personal life
00:23:31i know that you've always kept things pretty private
00:23:34well you don't accomplish some of the things i have without being prepared
00:23:40preparation is undoubtedly the deciding factor between success and failure
00:23:44exactly
00:23:46you know when alex came to me about you i did my research
00:23:50i think i'm in good hands here
00:23:53she's the one that told me that i should give you a shot that you should take a meeting
00:24:01sure let's go for it
00:24:03maybe what i need is to get out of my comfort zone
00:24:06i think it's time
00:24:07time jackie found love
00:24:10i'm so excited
00:24:12this is great what do we do next
00:24:14well
00:24:16we need men
00:24:17right
00:24:19right
00:24:21this is huge jackie gray at shake up and i love the forward thinking on the limited series
00:24:26i still have to work out some logistics but
00:24:29we just got confirmation from jackie's team that the one month target for the finale still works
00:24:35yes we and we realize the reveal is a risk but feel that it will still keep the listeners hopeful
00:24:42until the end and then up we go from there
00:24:47and jackie's presence alone will get us playing in that bigger arena
00:24:51how'd you pull this off
00:24:53teamwork
00:24:54teamwork
00:24:57well team
00:24:58get back to work
00:25:00you two have a lot to do if you're gonna rock the world with this announcement
00:25:15so georgie has a call into lincoln hall to see if it's available for the finale
00:25:19i love that it's it's glamorous and relevant
00:25:22just like jackie
00:25:24so where do we find the men for jackie to date
00:25:26well where do you meet guys
00:25:27well most of my friends use dating apps
00:25:29and you don't
00:25:30i guess i
00:25:32hold on to some fantasy that the perfect man will walk into my life when i least expect it
00:25:37that's interesting
00:25:39why
00:25:40well i always felt that i was
00:25:42the only one left that didn't pin all of his hopes on the next swipe
00:25:47well
00:25:48jackie gray can't just join a dating app like everyone else
00:25:51sure she can
00:25:53no
00:25:53i think we need to focus on her meeting people organically
00:25:57normal guys
00:25:58yeah but she doesn't lead a normal life
00:26:00well exactly maybe that's been her problem
00:26:02yeah okay
00:26:03i mean she can't meet guys that are also seeking the spotlight right
00:26:06i've always told her
00:26:08she needs to find someone who's comfortable just
00:26:10living in the cool of her shade
00:26:16what
00:26:17it's just
00:26:18between the moments of exuberant energy and fist pumps
00:26:22you've got some decent insight
00:26:25well
00:26:27everyone's got layers right
00:26:29sometimes you just have to peel them back
00:26:33jackie
00:26:33knows me
00:26:35to my core
00:26:36it's just
00:26:37i really want this for her
00:26:39you know
00:26:39she
00:26:39she deserves it
00:26:41and i suppose
00:26:42if i accomplish nothing more with this show
00:26:45at least that would make it all worthwhile
00:26:47and then what
00:26:50back to fist pumps
00:26:51yeah
00:26:54nah
00:26:54i want to thank you
00:26:56i really needed this
00:26:59a lot more than you know
00:27:01i guess what i wanted to say was
00:27:03um
00:27:07oh it's jackie she's confirming tomorrow
00:27:09we'll meet her after her shoot in the morning
00:27:12great
00:27:13and i have an idea
00:27:15but
00:27:15it's gonna take jackie really stepping out of her comfort zone
00:27:20hmm

00:33:47to jackie found love
00:33:49we'll see though
00:33:50based on her previous patterns
00:33:52she falls fast
00:33:53and then pushes them away
00:33:55you're right though
00:33:56that is some serious chemistry
00:33:59yeah
00:34:01well
00:34:02i guess we should probably let them be
00:34:04and then jackie can fill us in tomorrow morning

00:34:50you know her as the iconic figure
00:34:52but today

00:35:09pleasantly surprised
00:35:17they're great together

00:35:24does love at first sight really exist
00:35:27oh jackie
00:35:28you know with your experience
00:35:29that if you jump in too fast
00:35:30it can crash and burn
00:35:31but i really like them
00:35:33maybe try the finding love
00:35:35when you least expect it angle
00:35:38and that's great
00:35:39but in the meantime
00:35:40let's be sure
00:35:41not to focus on just one person
00:35:43you know
00:35:43go on a few more dates

00:35:48now let me guess
00:35:49a dating app
00:35:50nope
00:35:51today we flipped the script

00:38:24he will be there in the end
00:38:25and it will give you more time to get to know him throughout
00:38:28i guess so
00:38:30okay well in the meantime
00:38:31we need to get back to work here
00:38:33all right

00:38:55okay
00:38:56come on
00:38:57it's real
00:39:22i haven't moved like that in years
00:39:25i used to be able to dance like that
00:39:27i'm exhausted
00:39:29want to call it a night
00:39:30sure
00:39:39um
00:39:40um
00:39:45yeah
00:40:03Oh, okay, good.
00:40:07Jackie got home safe.
00:40:09She said Roman was a perfect gentleman.
00:40:11Good.
00:40:13Oh, my God, that was an hour ago.
00:40:15Oh, wow.
00:40:17It's getting late.
00:40:18Yeah.
00:40:19I guess we should probably call it a night.
00:40:24Miss Morning Person,
00:40:26would you like to grab some late-night breakfast with me?
00:40:29I thought you'd never ask.
00:40:35Okay, so Roman is definitely a good time.
00:40:38Mm-hmm.
00:40:39But I'm not really feeling long-term potential.
00:40:42I agree.
00:40:43Okay, so we've done the modern way.
00:40:45We've done the unconventional way.
00:40:47All we have left is the old-fashioned way.
00:40:49Yeah, the all-elusive organic meeting.
00:40:52It's a rare thing nowadays.
00:40:54It does still happen, though.
00:40:56It does?
00:40:59So is that really your plan?
00:41:01To go through life alone as the king of self-love?
00:41:06Sorry.
00:41:08Sorry.
00:41:08Maybe that was too much for a date chat.
00:41:12Or co-workers on a work thing chat.
00:41:18Anyway, you were pretty good out there tonight.
00:41:21Nice pivot.
00:41:22Nice pivot.
00:41:22Um, unlike dancing, I don't really feel like love came that easy for me.
00:41:30Yeah, you have to find the right partner.
00:41:32Yeah, I mean, I thought I did.
00:41:34It was about three years ago.
00:41:36That was my real last dance.
00:41:40That was the past, and I will look at the past no more.
00:41:45Fair enough.
00:41:47What about you?
00:41:49I mean, you're successful, you're beautiful, you're smart, and single.
00:41:57Let's just say my last partner didn't end up being an epic love.
00:42:04Graham.
00:42:06Wow.
00:42:07Yeah, I built him into this picture of modern male sensitivity for his public audience,
00:42:13and then in private, it backfired.
00:42:17So I walked away and left him to reap with the fruits of our labor.
00:42:23But that was in the past.
00:42:27Oh, speaking of the past, I've got one thing that I need you to explain.
00:42:34Wow, okay, where did you get that?
00:42:39So when I saw a glimmer of potential in you,
00:42:43I scoured everywhere to find all of your work before bringing it,
00:42:46so I could build on that glimmer.
00:42:48Came across that gem.
00:42:51I lied earlier.
00:42:53It wasn't your first time doing the cha-cha.
00:42:55Okay, I lied twice.
00:42:59There is something that I wish I would have changed about myself.
00:43:03You mean besides that haircut and that tie?
00:43:05I'm a sellout.
00:43:09Early on, I really did want to make a difference, but then I soon learned that people responded better to
00:43:16a very particular exterior way from me.
00:43:21Nobody wanted the serious journalism from this guy, you know?
00:43:26So I learned from that.
00:43:29And then I built myself a nice little career.
00:43:34Yeah, you stuck with what worked for you in the past.
00:43:36I get it.
00:43:37It's like...
00:43:38I thought the window to becoming something more was already closed.
00:43:44Until now.
00:43:47Well, the past is the past, right?
00:43:50I would encourage you to let what's inside shine through more.
00:43:55Just listen and connect.
00:43:57Yeah.
00:43:59I really feel like I could make a difference in people's lives now just being me, you know?
00:44:05Yeah.
00:44:07And if 20 million people a week believe in Graham as being right, then, boy, I better start listening to
00:44:12you more.
00:44:14Listening can be the key to a lot of things.
00:44:27I had a really good time tonight.
00:44:36Well, technically, it's already tomorrow.
00:44:38All the possibilities of a new day ahead of us.
00:44:41Come on, boy.
00:44:42Well, hey, at least I already have the one good thing that happened today.
00:44:46What's that?
00:44:50This.
00:44:55Good night.
00:44:56Good night.
00:45:18Hey.
00:45:19Graham.
00:45:20Hi.
00:45:21I thought it was you.
00:45:22Yeah.
00:45:23I was just heading in early.
00:45:25Oh, yeah.
00:45:26We were just...
00:45:29This is Yana.
00:45:31Hi.
00:45:32Hi.
00:45:33We were just going for a walk.
00:45:34I'm one of you now.
00:45:36The morning people.
00:45:38Wow.
00:45:39You used to hate mornings.
00:45:41Yeah.
00:45:41I know.
00:45:42But Yana got me into it.
00:45:44They're just so peaceful.
00:45:45I know.
00:45:46That's what I always said.
00:45:49You all right?
00:45:50Yeah.
00:45:52I'm going to go take some more photos.
00:45:55Yeah.
00:45:55It was really nice meeting you.
00:45:57Yeah, you too.
00:46:01This, uh...
00:46:02This is meant to be.
00:46:03Us running into each other.
00:46:05I was going to reach out.
00:46:06You were?
00:46:07Yeah.
00:46:07I heard about your new project.
00:46:09Rather, I should say, I heard your new project.
00:46:11That guy?
00:46:13He's so not you, but, uh...
00:46:15Jackie Gray?
00:46:16That's huge.
00:46:18Yeah, I'm still...
00:46:19Still pinching myself.
00:46:20Yeah, I guess, uh...
00:46:21If she comes along with him, then you gotta do what you gotta do, right?
00:46:24Right.
00:46:25It was nice seeing you.
00:46:27It was.
00:46:29Uh, hey.
00:46:30Don't be a stranger.
00:46:31Yeah, you too.
00:46:47So after the follow-up show, we'll start covering Jackie's dates a little more visually.
00:46:51So you can handle that by starting with pics, video, even testimonials.
00:46:56Okay.
00:46:58It's Graham.
00:47:00What did he say?
00:47:03He's sorry for anything he said.
00:47:05It's only out of admiration.
00:47:07He'd love to catch up some more.
00:47:09That's kind of vague.
00:47:12Yeah, and it's weird timing, especially after last night.
00:47:15Why?
00:47:16What happened last night?
00:47:20I don't know.
00:47:25Anyway, Graham is the last thing I need to worry about right now.
00:47:28We need to find a way for Jackie to meet someone organically.
00:47:32That's not gonna be easy.
00:47:34Yeah, no kidding.
00:47:42So we ended the night with a very sweet hug and a kiss on the cheek.
00:47:48Ah, I think we all know what that means.
00:47:51He just got put in the friendzo.
00:47:53I like him.
00:47:55Yeah, yeah.
00:47:56He's a great guy.
00:47:57He's attractive and fun.
00:47:59But you're just not feeling...
00:48:01Like a real connection.
00:48:03Exactly.
00:48:04And that's okay.
00:48:05I enjoy his company.
00:48:06But it's not like what I felt on my first date.
00:48:10Hmm.
00:48:12Keep her focused on moving forward to the next date.
00:48:15To the listeners at home, our goal was to help Jackie find love.
00:48:19And we always knew that that might mean multiple attempts.
00:48:23This next setup is a little more out of our control.
00:48:28Yes.
00:48:29Our producer, Peyton, filled me in.
00:48:31Do you want me to meet someone organically and go out with them?
00:48:36Does that still happen?
00:48:38I guess we'll find out.
00:48:40So Peyton had me make a list of places and hobbies that I enjoy.
00:48:43Great.
00:48:44What's the first one on the list, Jackie?
00:48:49So obviously, riding around the park, it would be challenging to meet someone.
00:48:52You're like a moving target.
00:48:55So I have arranged for us to join a group.
00:48:58And we will see if any sparks fly.
00:49:01Sounds like the odds aren't in our favor.
00:49:03I mean, so many things have to line up.
00:49:05Welcome to the world of trying to meet someone the old-fashioned way.
00:49:10Sometimes takes a little luck, but that's why you just have to keep putting yourself out there.
00:49:14Because you never know when things will actually fall in line.
00:49:18Oh, there we are.
00:49:23Oh.
00:49:25Looks like some potential.
00:49:28After you, please.
00:49:45I haven't ridden in years.
00:49:47Huh.
00:49:47Well, you know what they say.
00:49:48It's just like riding a bike.
00:49:52Our girl's making moves on the first lap.
00:49:57No one's ever said that, people.
00:49:59Looks like this whole meeting organically thing might not be so impossible.
00:50:04Ah.
00:50:04I guess it does happen.
00:50:07You got the hang of it.
00:50:08Let's pick up the pace.
00:50:10Okay.
00:50:17That was great.
00:50:18I've never done a group ride.
00:50:20It's so motivating.
00:50:21Well, we're here every Saturday.
00:50:23Then I'll see you next Saturday.
00:50:24My wife is never going to believe Jackie Gray's in our riding group.
00:50:28She'll be here next week.
00:50:29Oh, wonderful.
00:50:30I look forward to meeting her.
00:50:33I'll see you later.
00:50:34Okay.
00:50:37What happened?
00:50:38Did we miss the number exchange?
00:50:39It looked like you two were hitting it off.
00:50:41Yeah, he's just a nice guy.
00:50:43A nice married guy.
00:50:46The worst part of organic dating.
00:50:49I'm sorry.
00:50:50That's a bummer.
00:50:51Well, on to the next place on the list.
00:50:53The museum, right?
00:50:54Yes.
00:50:54There are no cool married guys that hang out at the museum alone.
00:50:57I promise you that.
00:51:01Hi, Tiffany.
00:51:03Oh, that's amazing.
00:51:05Oh, could you?
00:51:06Listen.
00:51:07Can you bring the paperwork and meet me at the shake-up office?
00:51:10We'll leave right now.
00:51:12Tiffany is at Two Hearts headquarters.
00:51:14Charlotte's puppy match came in sooner than expected.
00:51:17Oh, that's great news.
00:51:18Nice.
00:51:18Great.
00:51:23Welcome back.
00:51:24Oh, thank you.
00:51:25The last papers just need to be signed and it's official.
00:51:28Oh, this is wonderful.
00:51:29Yes.
00:51:30Charlotte's grandfather is here to sign for her.
00:51:32Hi, I'm Stuart.
00:51:34When we got the news today, I had to come down right away.
00:51:37She is going to be so surprised.
00:51:40I'm just so happy we could find her at the right match.
00:51:43Can't tell you how much this little dog is going to mean to Charlotte.
00:51:45Her parents worked some long hours and she could really use that extra friend.
00:51:49I was an only child myself.
00:51:51I get it.
00:51:52As was I.
00:51:54Anyway, I can't thank you enough.
00:51:56You're very welcome.
00:51:58You ride.
00:51:59I do.
00:52:00You?
00:52:01Well, not as much as I'd like to, but I'm working on it.
00:52:06Would you want to go for a ride with me tomorrow?
00:52:08Sure.
00:52:10I would love that.
00:52:11Okay, then.
00:52:12How's one o'clock?
00:52:14It's perfect.
00:52:16It is.
00:52:21I know this isn't probably what you were expecting when you asked me to go for a bike ride.
00:52:26I can hear you loud and clear, Jackie.
00:52:28Oh, and Stuart, thank you for being such a good sport.
00:52:30Yeah.
00:52:30Again, you don't have to do it this way.
00:52:33We just wanted to mix it up and add some video and audio stream for a website replays.
00:52:37Well, I'm not sure what that means, but I think it's exciting.
00:52:40Not every day you get to be on the radio.
00:52:42Well, a podcast, but similar.
00:52:45Okay, we're all set.
00:52:46I'll just be right in front.
00:52:47Don't worry.
00:52:48You won't even know I'm there.
00:52:49Okay.
00:52:50Sounds good.
00:52:51Have a good ride.
00:52:52Okay, thanks.
00:52:53Here we go.
00:52:54Ready?
00:52:55Okay, I got the camera.
00:52:56Let's go.
00:53:03I have a good feeling about Stuart.
00:53:06Yeah, I don't know.
00:53:08I'm picking up on something.
00:53:09What?
00:53:11Why would he ask her out if he wasn't fooling into her?
00:53:13Because it's a numbers game.
00:53:15Everybody's trying to find their lucky ticket out there.
00:53:18Lucky ticket?
00:53:21Yeah.
00:53:32What are they saying?
00:53:35I think I know what you were picking up on.
00:53:37Oh, no.
00:53:39He isn't married, too, is he?
00:53:40No.
00:53:42Well, he was.
00:53:44He's a widower.
00:53:48Can I listen?
00:53:53That was two years ago.
00:53:55She was my first love.
00:53:57My only love.
00:54:00Aw, that's so sweet.
00:54:02Well, my story isn't the same, but I also have had only one true love.
00:54:07Did you know about that?
00:54:09Well, I knew she was engaged before she was famous.
00:54:12I guess the sudden success just kind of tore it apart.
00:54:17No, I really want to find Jackie love.
00:54:20You know, when this all started, I was worried that my idol wouldn't live up to the pedestal I placed
00:54:26her on.
00:54:27But she has only exceeded it.
00:54:30She's an exceptional woman.
00:54:32And I owe her.
00:54:38Well, don't let it get to your head or anything, but you have exceeded my expectations as well.
00:54:45Is that a genuine compliment?
00:54:48I can take it back.
00:54:50Can I finish?
00:54:52Please.
00:54:54I think, you know, it took us a minute, but you've really found your flow with Jackie.
00:55:00And I think if she's willing, you two could have something really special together.
00:55:06Actually, I think we've all found our flow.
00:55:09I don't know what I'd be doing without you guys.
00:55:11What do you mean?
00:55:12You could always go back to your show and keep bringing it.
00:55:17Nice.
00:55:18But not exactly.
00:55:20Um, did you see the viral video of me?
00:55:24Yeah, that certainly escalated quickly.
00:55:27Yeah, and that's the edited down version.
00:55:29I may have provoked him with a spot-on impersonation.
00:55:33I mean, it's not my fault the guy can't act.
00:55:35I'm guessing somehow he didn't see it that way.
00:55:38No.
00:55:38He chased down the camera trying to grab the footage, and that's when I stepped in bravely.
00:55:43If he wasn't a superhero, I totally could have stopped.
00:55:46Oh, definitely.
00:55:50Well, then they made me resign privately.
00:55:53And I get it.
00:55:55They had to.
00:55:55So I signed a statement saying that I wouldn't release the footage to protect his movie star image.
00:56:01And then they couldn't fire me because of something that didn't happen.
00:56:04So I had to act like I was just moving on.
00:56:09Hmm.
00:56:12So I'm assuming Olivia doesn't know this.
00:56:16No.
00:56:18The point is...
00:56:21I needed this opportunity more than you know.
00:56:29Thank you for believing in me.
00:56:37Okay, it's my turn to come clean.
00:56:42It was all Olivia.
00:56:43Olivia, I thought you were totally wrong.
00:56:46Ouch.
00:56:47Here I was, thinking you were hiring me for my vast array of talents.
00:56:52You really stole that line, by the way.
00:56:54I know.
00:56:54I'm a closer.
00:56:55I'm sorry.
00:56:57But that was before.
00:57:01Before what?
00:57:03Well, before...
00:57:05I got to know you.
00:57:15Great finish.
00:57:17I promise I didn't let you win.
00:57:19I believe you, Stuart.
00:57:21This one never loses.
00:57:22This was wonderful.
00:57:24We should do it again sometime.
00:57:26Maybe not where we're on two wheels and in Lycra.
00:57:29I would like that.
00:57:31Give me a call and we'll figure something out.
00:57:33Sounds good.
00:57:34Okay.
00:57:35Bye.
00:57:36Bye.
00:57:37Thanks, Stuart.
00:57:37See you.
00:57:38I really like them.
00:57:40Maybe you guys are right.
00:57:42You just have to keep getting yourself out there.
00:57:45I'm going to get in one more lap.
00:57:46I'll see you guys at the studio Friday morning.
00:57:48Bye.
00:57:49Bye, Jack.
00:57:49Bye.
00:57:51What?
00:57:53He didn't set a date.
00:57:55He said he was going to call her.
00:57:56Yeah, but if he was so certain, he would have set a date, not just set some time.
00:58:01I think you're looking too much into it.
00:58:04Stuart's from a different generation.
00:58:05Yeah, but he's still from the same species.
00:58:12So, we will start off live with our announcement and details of our finale charity event.
00:58:17Since we know now it's only one week away, we need to push for ticket sales and donations.
00:58:22And then we'll do our recap of your date with Stuart.
00:58:25Right.
00:58:26Still haven't heard from him?
00:58:28Nope.
00:58:29Nothing.
00:58:30If that's actually perfect, I mean, it shows that even Jackie Gray gets ghosted.
00:58:36Well, we don't know that's what's happening.
00:58:38You could still call.
00:58:39It's Friday.
00:58:40You would have called by now.
00:58:43But we should be saving all of this for the show.
00:58:46This is exactly what people relate to out there.
00:58:51It's Stuart.
00:58:53Hey, Jackie.
00:58:54I'm just not ready.
00:58:56I thought I was over her, but I don't think I ever will be.
00:59:02Another obstacle in falling in love.
00:59:04Both parties have to be open to falling.
00:59:06You see?
00:59:07It's almost impossible for things to line up.
00:59:10You know, everything was so easy with Barry.
00:59:12It did all line up.
00:59:15That's it.
00:59:16You get in touch with Barry and tell him he's the one you want to be with, and then we
00:59:19spend
00:59:19this next week finding love with him.
00:59:23See if those strong feelings turn into real love.
00:59:26I don't want to go out with anyone else.
00:59:28But what about rushing things?
00:59:30I mean, is it too much pressure to fall in love in a week?
00:59:34Or it could be a great love story.
00:59:36Proving your gut reaction to love at first sight.
00:59:38And it's the only real option we have, right?
00:59:42Jackie shows her disappointment over Stuart and then reaches out to Barry, and then we reveal
00:59:46his love story at the finale.
00:59:48I don't know.
00:59:49That feels a little forced.
00:59:51We need a show.
00:59:52And you get to be with Barry.
00:59:55Maybe.
00:59:57Well, we can do whatever you want, Jackie.
01:00:01We do need a show.
01:00:02I'm used to putting my work commitments first, you know?
01:00:04Maybe this time it'll work out.
01:00:06You sure?
01:00:08Whoever I date has to deal with everything that comes along with me, and right now that
01:00:12includes this.
01:00:13If this is how it's meant to be with Barry, then it will be.
01:00:18And you better tune in next time for The Art of Alex.
01:00:22And we're out.
01:00:25That felt pretty good.
01:00:27Yeah?
01:00:28That was good.
01:00:29People are going nuts over the event announcement.
01:00:33Live traffic has never been higher, and they've already got hundreds of ticket inquiries.
01:00:37Make that thousands of inquiries.
01:00:39You were right.
01:00:40Jackie brings the numbers.
01:00:42Both of you.
01:00:43Really nice.
01:00:44We're set for this event to be the biggest thing we've ever done.
01:00:46And if these numbers stick, you're looking at that next level.
01:00:51Senior lead producer, next level?
01:00:53If everything continues in that direction.
01:00:55Now let's get working on those sponsors.
01:00:59Nice work.
01:01:00Well, this is great news.
01:01:02I'll see you guys tomorrow at the venue, and we'll go over the final decisions.
01:01:05Are you still up for the wrap-up interview tonight over the phone?
01:01:08Sure.
01:01:09Bye, Jackie.
01:01:14Is she okay?
01:01:15Yeah, she'll be fine.
01:01:16I mean, the point is to find her love, right?
01:01:21Are we interfering too much?
01:01:24You know, rushing things for a big reveal or big numbers?
01:01:27I don't see an issue.
01:01:29I mean, you saw the chemistry between her and Barry.
01:01:31Right.
01:01:32Yeah.
01:01:33Oh, Georgie, let's get back to the venue.
01:01:36And we all have that conference call with Jackie's charity manager in one hour, so we'll finalize then.
01:01:41Sounds good, maestro.
01:01:47Wow, looks like you two are doing just fine.
01:01:50Sounds like it, too.
01:01:51I caught last week's show.
01:01:53You left us with a well-oiled machine.
01:01:55Whoa!
01:01:55Oh, you are totally buzzing.
01:01:59I am?
01:02:00Big time.
01:02:01Like that kind?
01:02:02Well, come here.
01:02:06Close.
01:02:08Yeah, love vibes on fire.
01:02:10That's weird.
01:02:11Okay, go figure.
01:02:13The timing wasn't just right.
01:02:16Oh, please, no.
01:02:18We're just gelling really well right now, that's all.
01:02:20Yeah, vibes don't lie.
01:02:23I miss our talks.
01:02:24Let's get together again soon.
01:02:26Me too, I like that.
01:02:28Ooh, yowza.
01:02:30But you don't feel that.
01:02:33Woo, off the charts.
01:02:37So we should talk.
01:02:40Why?
01:02:40What's up?
01:02:41Not in the office.
01:02:43Oh, okay.
01:02:47Remember my friend Sheila?
01:02:48She works for Top Shelf Studios?
01:02:49Oh, the one who works with Graham, who kept trying to share meaningless gossip after we broke up?
01:02:53Yes, that one.
01:02:54Well, Sheila claims that Graham expressed interest into moving to Shake Up.
01:02:59And despite Alex and all of his potential, the board is beyond charmed and putting the squeeze on Olivia to
01:03:05pursue it.
01:03:06But why would Graham want to come to Shake Up?
01:03:07Maybe the answer isn't so secretly hidden in your text.
01:03:11Because of me?
01:03:12Perhaps he wants in on yours and Alex's success.
01:03:15He has the number one show, which doesn't make any sense.
01:03:21Unless...
01:03:23Graham knows that if he came to Shake Up, there wouldn't be room for both him and Alex.
01:03:27Obviously, the board would choose Graham.
01:03:29No Graham.
01:03:31The only thing bigger than his ratings is his ego.
01:03:34Exactly.
01:03:35Well, if that's true, we can't have Jackie or Alex find out.
01:03:40I don't want Alex distracted.
01:03:41Everything is good, right?
01:03:47It's Graham.
01:03:50I have something important to discuss.
01:03:52You're free.
01:03:54What are you going to reply?
01:03:55I'm not.
01:03:57See?
01:03:58This is so about you.
01:04:03I think what we've learned from this date is all of us have things that keep us from falling.
01:04:07I really enjoyed the date, and I was hurt when he didn't call.
01:04:11That's why it's so rare to find a connection where both people are ready and open.
01:04:18What?
01:04:19Do you think we're ignoring Jackie's feelings in order to keep everything moving in the right direction?
01:04:24I like the direction things are moving.
01:04:26Don't you?
01:04:28Yes, I do.
01:04:29I'm excited to see where they will go.
01:04:32But are we letting that blind us to Jackie's best interests?
01:04:37I mean, maybe we're messing with love.
01:04:40How?
01:04:40It's unfolding perfectly.
01:04:42We're rushing it.
01:04:43And wasn't that your initial advice to Jackie?
01:04:48Oh, that's her.
01:04:50Hey, how's the venue?
01:04:53What happened?
01:04:56Yeah, we'll be right there.
01:04:59We should go see Jackie.
01:05:10Hey.
01:05:10Everything okay, Jackie?
01:05:12Well, I will be.
01:05:14I always have been before.
01:05:16You know, I took both your advice to see this out instead of going with my gut.
01:05:22Yeah, but now you can tell Barry how you feel, right?
01:05:24I did.
01:05:26He wants nothing to do with me.
01:05:28What?
01:05:29Why?
01:05:30Barry heard the podcast for the first time today.
01:05:34He was hurt that I was so disappointed by not hearing from Stuart.
01:05:38You know, Barry had asked me to go out that day, and I didn't respond.
01:05:42He now knows that I was with Stuart.
01:05:45Okay.
01:05:45Well, you could explain that we asked you to go out with Stuart for the show, and that helped you
01:05:50see your true feelings.
01:05:51Exactly.
01:05:52Just blame us.
01:05:53Yeah, I did.
01:05:55And that's what hurts him.
01:05:56He can't believe that I would play with his heartstrings for the sake of an audience.
01:06:02He must know that what you feel is real.
01:06:04Well, he said that if it were, I would have put our feelings for each other first.
01:06:10I did it again.
01:06:12I chose my professional commitments over my personal, and it cost me.
01:06:18Again.
01:06:19Okay, well, here's what we're going to do, okay?
01:06:21Because Barry, right now, he's just acting with classic male instinct, and he's just...
01:06:24No, I'm not looking for any more advice.
01:06:28Please, just let me be.
01:06:30I need to think about all of this.
01:06:33What about the event?
01:06:36Well, that's not what I'm thinking about right now.
01:06:40You know, so far, all I've found is what I've felt before.
01:06:45Maybe it's easier not to love at all.
01:06:49It hurts less.
01:06:52I'm so sorry, Jackie.
01:06:54We thought that we were helping you.
01:06:59Sorry, Jack.
01:07:01Okay.
01:07:01Okay.
01:07:05Well, it looks like that completely backfired.
01:07:09Yeah.
01:07:10Honestly, I have no idea why anyone would go to me for advice.
01:07:13I mean, I was just going on instinct, you know?
01:07:16I'm not a matchmaker, and I am certainly not a life coach.
01:07:20Well, maybe you pushed her too hard.
01:07:22Me?
01:07:23If I'm not mistaken, you didn't object.
01:07:25I did.
01:07:26Yeah, but we both need a show.
01:07:28At the expense of Jackie's feelings?
01:07:31I just don't know if you're taking this personally.
01:07:34This is Jackie's life.
01:07:35How are you innocent in this?
01:07:37Because you steamrolled both of us with your ideas.
01:07:40Ideas that you approved?
01:07:42Yes, and that's why I'm upset.
01:07:43You got me to go against my gut.
01:07:45I knew you would be too much.
01:07:49We both agreed that she should continue dating.
01:07:53And how am I too much?
01:07:55Everything was just too much.
01:07:57It wasn't like that when you needed the ratings I got for you.
01:08:00You just don't listen, do you?
01:08:01Oh, I hear you.
01:08:02And you're just blaming me because you can't take responsibility for something you did wrong as well.
01:08:07And now you're panicking because everything we built is ruined.
01:08:10No, we can still save this.
01:08:12No, we can't.
01:08:13I know, Jackie.
01:08:14She made a decision.
01:08:15But she listens to you, so...
01:08:17So now you want me to bail you out?
01:08:22Well, if you won't, then I will.
01:08:24Fine.
01:08:25Good luck.
01:08:27And when you want to apologize, I'll be around.
01:08:48Jackie, I'm really sorry.
01:08:50I've tried to reach you so many times.
01:08:52Please get back to me.
01:08:54We can do whatever you'd like.
01:08:59I spoke with Alex.
01:09:01I know we can get Jackie to come around.
01:09:03Well, fortunately for you anyway, that might not matter.
01:09:06Since it's not working out, an opportunity's appeared in our lap too big to pass up.
01:09:11Graham.
01:09:14I have been trying to land him for several months, long before Alex.
01:09:18Out of nowhere, he responded.
01:09:20He's seeking more control, and I told him we could give him whatever he wants.
01:09:24Oh, wow.
01:09:25We'd have to let go of almost everyone to clear the budget, but he would be the true mothership.
01:09:29One that's proven.
01:09:31Okay.
01:09:33I get it.
01:09:36You won't be going anywhere.
01:09:38What?
01:09:39Graham made one stipulation.
01:09:41That you would be his producer.
01:09:43Looks like you've got your number one show.
01:09:45You just say the word, and we can close.
01:09:49I think I just need some time.
01:09:54Sure.
01:09:58But this should be the easiest decision you'll ever make.
01:10:22Graham, hi.
01:10:25Yeah.
01:10:25Olivia just told me everything.
01:10:27Sure.
01:10:29We can meet.
01:10:31Our old spot.
01:10:34Great.
01:10:48Hey.
01:10:50Congratulations.
01:10:54This all feels so sudden.
01:10:57Too sudden.
01:10:58Look, I was ready to make a move.
01:11:01Contract's out.
01:11:02And after seeing you, I realized that no matter where we are in life right now, I want to give
01:11:07this to you.
01:11:08You don't have to.
01:11:09I want to.
01:11:10That's the huge opportunity you worked all these years for.
01:11:14I always said you were the smartest girl I know.
01:11:21Not every decision is the right one, because you see it that way.
01:11:27No.
01:11:28But the smart move is the smart move.
01:11:30That's not up for debate.
01:11:31Maybe it's not about the smart move, for once.
01:11:34The Peyton I know would take this deal in a heartbeat.
01:11:36Look, you don't know me that well anymore, do you?
01:11:41Unless there's another reason for you wanting to work with him.
01:11:43I knew it.
01:11:45You're doing this because you can't stand to see me have success with someone else.
01:11:48No.
01:11:49You and I, we're good together.
01:11:52I was just, I was hoping to find some of that magic again.
01:11:55And for me, Shape Up gives me full control of my brand.
01:11:59How does Yana feel about you choosing to work with your ex?
01:12:05Yana, Yana and I are on a break.
01:12:07And I think we both know it's permanent.
01:12:10Is that where this is coming from?
01:12:11No.
01:12:12No, look, this is purely professional.
01:12:15Like I said, I just want to be able to give back to you everything you gave to me.
01:12:20I have to make this work.
01:12:22Okay.
01:12:23Yeah?
01:12:23Great.
01:12:24Great.
01:12:25You won't regret this.
01:12:28Not with you.
01:12:36You realize this means they'll let both of you go.
01:12:46So what do you do now?
01:12:47What I've always done.
01:12:50Figure it out.
01:12:53Good luck, Graham.
01:13:00Hey, Alex.
01:13:02Please call me back.
01:13:15Hi.
01:13:18I'm so glad you answered.
01:13:36That's it?
01:13:38It didn't work out.
01:13:39And that's okay.
01:13:42I'm happy for you.
01:13:44No, you don't understand.
01:13:45I made my decision.
01:13:46I know.
01:13:47And it was the smart thing to do.
01:13:49It was the safe life raft for your career.
01:13:52I decided to keep Graham in my past.
01:13:55I want to finish this.
01:13:57I want to keep moving forward.
01:13:58You don't have to do that.
01:13:59You're not listening.
01:14:02That's what I want.
01:14:03It's over, Payton.
01:14:05What?
01:14:06It was fun while it lasted.
01:14:08But why?
01:14:10We can still fix this.
01:14:12Thank you for the opportunity.
01:14:14Maybe you were right.
01:14:15Maybe you were just not a good fit.
01:14:17I'm sorry.
01:14:18I didn't mean any of that.
01:14:19I was just frustrated.
01:14:22But now I know we can get right back on track.
01:14:25Call Graham back.
01:14:26Make the smart choice.
01:14:31Alice.
01:14:33Alice.
01:14:47You're living in a moon screen.
01:14:52I watch you walk away.
01:14:56You're standing in your mood and dream.
01:15:01I watch you walk away.
01:15:06But I know it's not true.
01:15:12Oh, there's nothing in my mind, boy.
01:15:20Oh, there's nothing in my mind, boy.
01:15:22Oh, there's nothing in my mind, boy.
01:15:26Oh, I really enjoyed the date.
01:15:30And I was hurt when he didn't call.
01:15:33That's why it's so rare to find a connection
01:15:36where both people are ready and open,
01:15:39like I found with Barry.
01:15:53Barry, hi.
01:15:55It's Peyton.
01:15:57Um...
01:15:58Can we talk?
01:16:00That's why it's so rare to find a connection
01:16:03where both people are ready and open,
01:16:05like I found with Barry.
01:16:11As hard as I've tried to deny it,
01:16:13I feel the same.
01:16:17I have a plan,
01:16:18but it's going to take you being available the night of the event.
01:16:25Hey, you've reached Alex.
01:16:27You better bring it with a message.
01:16:31At this point, it's on him.
01:16:34That is, assuming, of course,
01:16:36that your first two messages were a little more specific in detail.
01:16:39They were.
01:16:40I let him know that Jackie and Barry seem to be on board for Saturday night,
01:16:43but we just need him to come around.
01:16:46I'm sorry.
01:16:48I know you've been waiting a long time for this.
01:16:50I was just so excited about the whole idea, you know?
01:16:54It's Jackie!
01:16:56I meant Alex.
01:16:58Right?
01:17:00I would be lying if I said that I didn't feel like there was something there
01:17:05for the first time in a long time.
01:17:08I know.
01:17:09I'm sorry.
01:17:10I just...
01:17:11I need to see him.
01:17:12Get him to listen to me.
01:17:17Wait.
01:17:19Today's Wednesday.
01:17:21It's training day.
01:17:24I think I'll try my game real quick.
01:17:27What do you think?
01:17:28Oh, you're going to try.
01:17:29I'm willing to ride along.
01:17:32Or at least try to ride along.
01:17:34But I think it would be better if you just heard me out now on solid grounds.
01:17:42I'm sorry.
01:17:44I should have talked to you first.
01:17:46And I know it may have looked like I was jumping ship to get out before we sunk.
01:17:51I get it.
01:17:52And you didn't do anything wrong.
01:17:55I'm sorry, too.
01:17:57This is what I want.
01:17:59You have to believe me.
01:18:02We have unfinished business.
01:18:04And I want to see it through.
01:18:07I'm willing to go down with the ship.
01:18:09This ship.
01:18:10Yeah, but hasn't this ship sunk already?
01:18:12No.
01:18:13Because I have a plan.
01:18:15We changed the event to a live event.
01:18:17With live donations.
01:18:19We make a whole new announcement.
01:18:21But Olivia canceled everything already.
01:18:22Yes.
01:18:23But Shake Up has to run it if we do it.
01:18:26But to pull off the show,
01:18:28we may need the help of someone who has the ability to do something like this on their own.
01:18:32I mean, like a certain icon with experience in the media industry.
01:18:38You know, Barry told me he saw you.
01:18:41That was very selfless of you.
01:18:44So, yes, I believe in this.
01:18:48This ship.
01:18:51And I have an idea.
01:19:01Jackie, this is unexpected.
01:19:03Listen, Olivia.
01:19:05I appreciate you and your initial support of Alex.
01:19:08And I was sorely disappointed when that quickly changed.
01:19:12It has been a pleasure having you at Shake Up.
01:19:14Unfortunately, I have a board to answer to,
01:19:16and they won't let me back a show that's falling apart.
01:19:19When you had a sure bet with Graham?
01:19:21Well, yes, but as a businesswoman, I'm sure you can understand that.
01:19:25I believe in this show.
01:19:26I did, too.
01:19:28I was the one who pushed for Alex in the first place,
01:19:30but like I said, the board won't allow me...
01:19:32Oh, you mean Jack, Cynthia, and the rest of the gang?
01:19:34I know, they're great.
01:19:36They were more than happy to make a deal with me.
01:19:41I bought the rights to the show.
01:19:44So, no worries.
01:19:46I'll take it off your hands, and I'll find it a new home.
01:19:48Oh, what show?
01:19:50I thought the event was canceled.
01:19:52Oh, it's back on.
01:19:53I'm fully financing the event.
01:19:55Then I'll own the rights moving forward.
01:19:58Oh.
01:19:59Then I will be rooting for you, and I'll be there to support.
01:20:03You know, in a way, we have you to thank for everything.
01:20:07Seeing you guys succeed will be thanks enough.
01:20:10And that's just what we'll do.
01:20:27I'm Jackie.
01:20:28We have a visitor.
01:20:30Oh.
01:20:31Meet Max in the flesh, or the fur, I should say.
01:20:36We'll be uniting Max with Charlotte to kick things off.
01:20:41Thank you for pushing for this.
01:20:43I've got to hand it to you for listening to your gut.
01:20:46I wasn't listening to my gut.
01:20:49I was listening to my heart.
01:20:53Maxie!
01:20:55Hi, Max!
01:20:57Hi.
01:20:58Oh, my goodness.
01:21:00Oh, so sweet.
01:21:02Oh, there you go.
01:21:06Guess it's time to get back to work.
01:21:28Everything's ready.
01:21:29Great.
01:21:30So, we will start and finish by focusing on two hearts.
01:21:34Sounds good.
01:21:34I like that.
01:21:36And hopefully, my surprise guest keeps his heart.
01:21:52And that's where your hard-earned ticket purchases will go.
01:21:56Now, let's put a face to those donations.
01:22:00This is Charlotte's and her new best friend.
01:22:09Max, thank you, too.
01:22:10Oh, I love them already.
01:22:13That about sums it up.
01:22:14We'll begin shortly.
01:22:15The numbers are already in the hundreds of thousands.
01:22:20This is your moment.
01:22:23Just meet you.
01:22:30Shall we?
01:22:31Let's do this.
01:22:33I learned three things on those three dates.
01:22:37Sometimes people come into your life for different reasons.
01:22:41Sometimes things come from the unexpected to surprise you.
01:22:52And sometimes things are just special.
01:22:56Yeah, a connection that you can't explain.
01:22:59And I think we've learned that it's never too late to find love.
01:23:04I also ran from love for far too long.
01:23:07And I think it's important to remember just how special and wonderful love is.
01:23:12And just to listen to your heart.
01:23:15Yes, I've learned that.
01:23:20So have I.
01:23:22That's why I'm here.
01:23:27Barry!
01:23:29What are you doing here?
01:23:32Oh, my God.
01:23:33What I think we can all see is that when love calls, we should listen.
01:23:39Now, this is a happy ending.
01:23:43Until next time.
01:23:45And there will be a next time.
01:24:00I just wanted to come and support.
01:24:03And I want to be the first to congratulate you.
01:24:06The live stream numbers came in, and they are by far the most ever at Shake Up.
01:24:12Just as importantly, my charity manager says that we have quadrupled the expected amount.
01:24:19Now that's how you kick off into adventure.
01:24:21It sure is.
01:24:23We should go to the announcements.
01:24:26Yes.
01:24:34I was wrong.
01:24:36You never gave up.
01:24:38I saw that in you from the beginning.
01:24:41You guys are going to do great.
01:24:43I wasn't going to come tonight, but, uh...
01:24:46Well, I'm just so proud of you.
01:24:53For everything.
01:24:55I...
01:24:58I owe you.
01:25:01Yeah, you know, it's funny.
01:25:03Here I thought I was playing the boss, and I was actually playing the matchmaker.
01:25:08I knew you two with Jell, eventually.
01:25:12Like I said, I owe you.
01:25:15Mm-hmm.
01:25:23Wow.
01:25:24Oh, I just want to thank you all for a wonderful evening.
01:25:29And I'm so excited to say that we have exceeded all of our goals.
01:25:34Isn't that fantastic?
01:25:36Yeah, absolutely.
01:25:37Woo!
01:25:37Woo!
01:25:38Woo!
01:25:39Woo!
01:25:39Now, I have another announcement.
01:25:41I now own the official right to the art of Alex.
01:25:47Woo!
01:25:47Woo!
01:25:48Woo!
01:25:48Woo!
01:25:49Woo!
01:25:51Woo!
01:25:52Woo!
01:25:52Woo!
01:25:52Woo!
01:26:00Woo!
01:26:12Woo!
01:26:16Woo!
01:26:17Woo!
01:26:21Woo!
01:26:22Woo!
01:26:23After all, it was Peyton who taught me a very important lesson.
01:26:28All you need to do is listen to your heart, and it will guide you.
01:26:36Oh, now, there's just one thing left to do.
01:26:41Celebrate!
01:27:04Do you remember this song?
01:27:06Yeah, I think I remember dancing the night away to something like this.
01:27:09Yeah, I remember regretting not doing something that night.
01:27:15Yes.
01:27:39You're living in a movie screen
01:27:43I watched you walk away
01:27:47You're standing in your movie dream
01:27:52Once you walked away
01:27:57But I know
