- Previously on
"The Arrangement"...

"Technicolor Highway,"
we need to focus on that.

And the fact that your co-star
clearly has feelings for you.

- You know that was just
about the work, right?

- I never thought
Lisbeth would just

bail on me
at our wedding.

- Did she ever
explain herself?

- Something about
getting lost in my world.

- I just wanna know
why you left.

Was it Terence?

- You can't separate them,
it's impossible.

- Whatever she's accessing,

it's pretty deep in the vault.

- I don't wanna spend
an entire weekend

pushing IHM
on national TV.

He booked us
on "Iris Holloway."

- He wants you
to do more press?

- He also wants you to do it.

- I can't watch Terence
control Kyle anymore.

I'm ready to meet your friends.

- Ten years ago, a girl
named Julie Wolfe joined IHM.

And then she just vanished.

- There's a name--
it should be in the IHM system.

It's the last thing I'm gonna
ask you to do, I promise.

- It was Monday.

I'm not sure why
I remember that.

We were scheduled to attend
a fundraiser that night

for the Boys & Girls Club
of Los Angeles.

Hey, babe, you home?

Lis?

♪

Hey, babe, you here?

♪

- This is Lisbeth.
Leave a message.

- Just calling
to check on you.

Everything all right?

Get back to me, okay?

Yeah, hey, what's going on?

You're not answering
my phone calls.

Get back to me, please.

I'm--I'm starting to get
a little worried about you.

♪

She didn't
tell you anything?

She knew the schedule.
She said she was fine with it.

I don't know.

Her phone's going
straight to voicemail.

DeAnn, I gotta call you back.

I don't have it
committed to memory,

but the basic message
of the note was that

she loved me,

and that she realized
my world was just

too big for her.

She was getting lost,
so she thought

the best thing
for her to do was leave.

♪

- What did she mean
by getting lost?

- My life is very complex.
It's full of moving pieces.

Sometimes if I'm not careful,

things can get lost
in the shuffle,

like intimacy.

- Lost--

a word that isn't
foreign to you.

You have had a lot of it
in your life, haven't you?

Sure, my fair share.

- Your mother died of cancer
when you were little.

You lost your father in
a car accident soon after.

- That's correct.

- So, when Lisbeth left,

that must've revived a lot
of the childhood trauma.

- No, no,

because Lisbeth wasn't dead.

- Let's cut.

The suggestion of death
is a metaphor.

I just wanna
make it really clear

how high the emotional stakes
were for you when Lisbeth left.

- Okay, then let's be clear.
Lisbeth didn't die.

I'm not interested
in sensationalizing it.

- Oh, no, no, no, no, no,
of course not.

It's just that I really wanna
dig a little bit deeper here

so we can
leave death out of it.

Let's talk about abandonment.

I mean, that's part of your
history, wouldn't you say?

People that you depended on
leaving you?

- Yes.

- So, would you be
comfortable saying that

the breakup with Lisbeth
played into that?

Yeah, yeah, okay, sure.
- That's great.

That'll really tee us up nicely
for talking about

how IHM helped you
get through all of that.

- Okay.

And three, two...

Let's talk about loss.

♪

- Look, you knew
the question was coming,

or did you not read the notes?

- DeAnn usually gives us
the notes and walks us through.

- Yeah, well, DeAnn's not here.
I expect you to read the notes.

- I've got better things to do.

- Yeah, I read the notes.

- Look, this isn't a
pleasant memory for any of us,

but it makes you
look sympathetic.

And given the rumors out there,
that's not a bad thing.

This is all for
the greater good.

- Dress it up however you want,
man,

but I'm up to my ears trying
to make this movie work

and me and my cast have been
spending the entire weekend

making an infomercial for IHM.

- Put energy into IHM,

and IHM puts energy
back into you,

you know that.
- Right, right,

except I don't have
any more energy to give.

- Sweetie,
the movie's going well.

You're doing a great job.

We could afford
to take the weekend off.

I am ready to sing
some IHM praises,

if you're ready for me.

- Amazing.

Would you actually sing?

- Did you wanna take a look
at yesterday's scene?

- The movie's not going well.

- I'm sure you shouldn't
take that personally.

whatever horrible shit
he did to her.

- Or maybe they're lying.

your last few weeks.

You weren't in the Institute.

Your girlfriend
Nasim Anand was.

You two have a very explosive,
public breakup,

and almost
immediately afterwards,

you signed up for
an introductory workshop.

- The timing is weird,
I'll give you that.

But the truth is,

I've been interested
in IHM for weeks

since I met Kyle.

- You are the choices
you make--

in acting, in music,
in your relationships--

and I don't know
anybody who makes

better choices than Kyle.

If IHM can give me
the tools to help me improve,

you better believe

- Hey, not my first rodeo.

- Let's find some time to talk.

I wanna hear how
the workshop went.

- Sure, thanks, man.

- Oh, no, you set the bar high.

Terence should cut you a check.

- Nah, I'm happy to do this--

keeping my mind occupied
instead of dwelling.

- She's part of it.

The bigger issue is Hooper.

- Yeah.

You know, when I make music,
I just follow my gut

and, I don't know,
the people, they like it.

to an audience of one

just wanna give
you guys a heads-up.

The schedule changed.

We have to reshoot
scene 16 on Monday.

Why, what's wrong?

- When you grab her,
it's emotional,

but it also has
to be compassionate.

Right now, every take
is reading like anger.

We're gonna lose the audience.

- Well, yesterday
you told me to play fear,

and then it was
play love for the girl.

I've tried everything
you've asked, Kyle.

It's never right.

- It's because
you're not getting it.

- I don't know what "it" is.

How the hell do you grab
someone with compassion, man?

- Like this.

And you look her in the eye
and you tell her

that she cannot make
the same mistakes that you did.

- That reads like anger.

♪

- Do you really think
we're gonna lose the audience?

- What exactly is
the point of that question?

- Look, I'm sorry, it--

you hired the guy because
you thought he would

bring something
different to the part,

so why don't you
just let him bring it?

- Even if what
he's doing is wrong?

- Well, I don't think
what he's doing

is necessarily wrong--

- Is that what
you're telling him?

That what he's doing
is right and that I'm wrong?

- No, do you really
think that I would

undermine you like that?

- Don't make it sound
so ridiculous, Megan.

'cause I'm not making it.

- Fine, I'll call DeAnn.
I'll explain everything.

Look, man, I'm...

I'm sorry for any time that

I've made your life
more difficult.

But before you know it,

everything is gonna
be right again.

Look, man,
you are gonna be happy

that I did this, I promise.

Xavier okay?

- He's working on it.

- I know he doesn't get it,
but this isn't personal.

We'll talk about this later.

- Sure, I just wanna say
thank you to Iris first.

- No, I'm not.

Kyle's the star again.
That's what you always wanted.

- Listen, I don't know
what the hell you think,

but Kyle made
this decision on his own.

- He has your voice
in his head, Terence,

and you have told him over
and over not to rely on me.

And now here we are at goddamn
square one of this movie

that means so much to us,

to him, and that's on you.

- Yeah, every story
needs a bad actor.

- What is that
supposed to mean?

- Someone whose sole purpose
is to screw you over,

so when things
don't go your way,

you have someone to blame--

better me than Kyle,

better than thinking he doesn't
trust you with this movie.

- You have been trying to push
me aside since the beginning.

- No, that's your reality.

In my reality, the world
doesn't revolve around you,

and you're not that important.

- Hey, I was just speaking--
- I'm done for the day.

♪

- Okay, well, look,
let me know what they say.

We always have other options.

- You think jealousy
had something to do with it?

- There's nothing
to be jealous of.

- Well, maybe the rumors
got to him.

I mean, it's not like you and
Xavier don't have chemistry.

- Look,

Kyle was miserable.

He disappeared and he came back
a completely different person.

I don't know what happened,
but Terence did something.

And there's no way that
Julie Wolfe doesn't exist.

Terence definitely
had those records wiped.

- Well, that's one possibility.

♪

- Shaun's lying
about what she found.

♪

- So, I told DeAnn
what's going on.

- She's furious.

Reshooting all of Xavier's
scenes is gonna cost us

a ton of money
that we don't have,

and in the press' eyes,
I am now seen as

"a fragile egomaniac making
a flaming tower of shit."

Her words.

But we're gonna make the movie

that we all
originally imagined,

and she couldn't deny that.

And now, I need to know
how you're doing.

I'm just trying to make sense
of this whole thing,

- I know...

I told you if we were gonna
make the movie we wanted,

I couldn't be in it,

and now I'm telling you
the opposite.

- Did you lose trust in me
for some reason?

- No, never.

And this had nothing to do
with you and Xavier, either.

This whole thing happened
because I lost trust in myself

and the principles
that got me here.

- The principles
I learned at IHM.

- No, what got you here
was talent and hard work.

It was you.

The person I connected with
in that first audition was you.

In two minutes, I could see
everything about you

that was beautiful
and flawed and vulnerable,

and that--

that is who
I fell in love with,

not whatever Terence
put in your head.

- Whatever Terence
put in my head

is the only reason
that I'm here today.

I've been
to the darkest places,

and IHM is the only thing
that pulled me back.

It is my lifeline,
and when I forget that--

- Let me be your lifeline.

I love you.

- That's not how it works.

You can't save me from myself.

- No, I have to do it.

But I have used the tools
that he gave me every day.

It's the only thing that works.

And I love you too.
