Original subtitles

All right, I got cherries for vitamin C

and dark chocolate for magnesium.

And deliciousness.

Oh, is that Chelsea's fan site?

Everybody found out that this is Chelsea's last fashion show,

and now they're all being cray-cray.

Mm. A lot of sad face and broken heart emojis.

I-I'm not making fun.

Cross my heart emoji.

I'm actually researching

for the article I'm doing on influencers,

and I'm honestly blown away by the loyalty they inspire.

It's intense.

In my journalism class,

they taught us that the best research

is in-person research.

And?

You should go to the fashion show

and take me with you.

Nice try, but it's a school night.

I finished my homework, Dad.

Good.

Also, you haven't told anybody in these anonymous chats...

That Chelsea's my cousin? No.

You warned me not to give out personal info

only, like, a billion times.

Thank you for being safe online.

[knock on door]

Oh. I'll get that.

Thanks, you two. Your timing could not be better.

-Hey, cuzlette. -Chelsea!

Kat, what are you doing here?

You ready to go to the show?

Dad, you knew?

We need some help. He volunteered you.

He told me I couldn't go 'cause it was a school night.

We swore him to secrecy.

We wanted to see your face when we showed up.

This is fire. [squeals]

-You're the best, Dad. -[laughs]: Okay.

-Aw. -Thanks.

I got to go get some clothes.

Oh!

[laughter]

Thank you for doing this for Samantha.

She's gonna have a blast.

How many of these fashion events have we been to, huh?

One, two hundred?

Are you saying you don't enjoy them?

The lights, the noise.

Maybe you should try focusing on the clothes. [chuckles]

That's even worse.

Remember that last show we attended?

Looked like the models had been attacked

by a herd of balloon animals.

[laughs] You are deliberately trying to make me laugh.

I do love to hear your laughter, my dear.

You know you would do anything to support Dani.

-It's true. I would. -Mm-hmm.

It just can't be easy to let Chelsea go

after all these years.

Yeah, Chelsea grounded Dani, as much as Dani could be grounded.

So, I'm sure she'll be in her feelings tonight.

Mm.

Can't be easy.

Not that Chelsea doesn't deserve her own path,

but Dani's had quite a few hard knocks lately.

Which is why, if she falls,

we will be there to catch her.

That's my baby.

I know.

♪ ♪

-You look marvelous, as always. -Mm.

And you look handsome, as always.

[chuckles] There you go.

Kat seems pretty psyched that her and Chelsea's purse line

is gonna get a major preview tonight.

Chelsea is being very generous

by doing this one last fashion show.

You do know why she agreed to do it, don't you?

No, I'm not up on all of the Dupree tea.

To thank Dani for all the years of hard work

she put into promoting Chelsea's career.

That girl is nothing if not thoughtful.

Which is why she also didn't invite her dad.

She knew Bill would say yes,

and then he would come flaunting his new wife

under Dani's nose.

Mm. [chuckles]

That girl is a good daughter.

Thoughtful and savvy.

Yeah, thoughtful she is.

And I'd tiptoe around Dani as well. [chuckles]

-Ted! -What?

I don't think you appreciate what Dani's going through.

She ended her marriage in the most public and hurtful way.

Now this phase of her career is ending, too.

She has to forge a completely new identity.

That's difficult for anyone,

let alone somebody who has been hurt as much as Dani.

I'm a plastic surgeon.

I rely on you for your emotional intelligence.

All I'm saying is...

is I am very proud of my sister.

Proud of her emotional fortitude.

There's that famous Dupree loyalty that I'm used to.

Yep. And if I may say so,

it has worked in your favor more than once.

-Yes, it has. -[chuckles]

All right. So, tonight, Grasshopper, we are going to...?

Focus on the positive, Sensei.

That's Japanese.

Okay, kung fu is Chinese.

But I'll forgive you because I know tonight is a big night.

If by "big night," you mean the end of life as I knew it.

No, it's a celebration of all the fabulous work

that you and Chelsea have done together.

Except apparently, my daughter was miserable the whole time.

You think maybe she was exaggerating

-just to make a point? -Maybe.

Still colors my memories of it.

Hey, Chelsea is way proud of everything

you two have accomplished together.

I mean, how could she not be?

Dani. Come on.

Look at these pictures.

Everything you see in those photos,

the beauty, the polish, the poise,

she inherited all that from you, you know?

I don't know.

Well, I do.

And I'll tell you something else I know.

She's making the most of it. She's...

She's building from that, not taking away from it.

She's going into business with her cousin

because of the foundation that you laid down for her,

the hard work you put in.

I know that in theory.

And Chelsea is gonna be spectacular

-at anything she attempts. -Mm-hmm.

I'll be proud, too.

But damn.

I'm gonna miss her.

I'll miss all of it.

[door closes]

MARTIN: Hey, Hubster.

Sorry I'm late.

I was held up at

an appropriations committee meeting.

Glad you didn't miss Kat and Chelsea.

-Hey, you two. -KAT: Hi, brother.

[chuckling]

-Hey, cuz. Hi. -Yes.

So, how was Samantha? I know she was super excited.

-Oh, she was. -SMITTY: She idolizes these two.

Did Smitty tell you about his new article?

Wait a minute. Article?

Are you writing again?

Yeah, for The Washington Record.

Congratulations. That's a big deal.

Thank you. And, Chelsea, you might actually

be interested in my first piece.

It's about influencers.

And since you are one, I was hoping

maybe I could talk to you at some point.

I'd totally be up for that, yeah.

[Samantha squeals]

I'm ready.

Don't worry. We'll take real good care of her.

Thank you, guys, for setting this up.

-I am totally hyped. -Okay, give us a hug.

We'll see you later at the show.

-Let's go. -Okay.

[chuckles]

Thought I left my shoes down here.

Under the table.

-Oh, thanks. -Mm-hmm.

You're researching for your piece?

Yeah. It's fascinating.

There is so much money sloshing around the influencer universe

and hardly any oversight.

Creates a world ripe for exploitation.

Of who? And by who?

That's the thing. It's everybody.

The influencers exploit the people.

They themselves are being exploited.

It's-it's like the Wild West out there.

I'd forgotten how hot you are

when you get all caught up in a story.

What was I thinking, discouraging you

from going back to work?

And I now remember how dashing you look

when we go to fundraisers.

-Oh, yeah? -Yeah.

Presidential campaigns are full of fundraisers,

so maybe I shouldn't have been discouraging that.

What?

Did I say the wrong thing?

No.

I just talked to Gran and Granddad again,

and they're still not into me running for president.

That didn't stop you from testing the waters before.

I know, but after you and I spoke,

I've been rethinking it.

My grandparents have valid points.

Such as?

Such as family.

Like just now, springing that surprise on Samantha

and seeing how excited she was.

That's the stuff that life is made of.

And we don't know how many more years we have them at home.

And maybe it would be different

if we had them since they were babies,

but a campaign

means traipsing all over the country

and missing these priceless moments

that we never get back.

So this seems like more than just second thoughts.

You're having huge reservations about a presidential run.

Yeah.

Well?

I know. I wanted to get it out there.

I don't want anything unspoken between us.

Thank you.

Oh, there is one more thing

that we have to discuss about Samantha.

What's that?

Whether or not to let her start dating.

She's a responsible kid.

She's careful, thoughtful.

Mm-hmm.

And I guess it's fine if we're careful, too.

So is that a yes?

That's a yes.

Oof. Okay.

I think we should tell her after the fashion show.

Great. I'll be the cool dad, too.

Mm, I think it'll be a tie.

[chuckles softly]

What do you think of the young man Kat's been seeing?

I don't know what to think, because I haven't met him,

but I think your daughter here

knows a little bit more than I do.

Only a little more?

Then why haven't we talked about him?

Because I don't know how serious this is.

I'm taking my cues from Kat,

and right now, she has complete focus

on getting Chelsea's purse line up and running.

Tomas is, uh, not bad-looking, though.

-He certainly isn't. -[laughter]

Wait, both of you have met him?

We've seen him. The three of us.

We observed them having breakfast

at the country club the other morning.

Then why haven't we talked about him?

Because your services weren't necessary, sweetheart.

All the scowling was handled here by Daddy.

I do not scowl.

-I... inspect. -[laughter]

NICOLE: Daddy delivered one of

the, uh, patented scowls that he likes to reserve

for men who are trying to date

his daughters and granddaughters.

Ooh, I remember that scowl.

I appreciate it, though.

Girl dads of the DMV must stick together.

[chuckles]

So, Ted,

now that Kat's starting the business with Chelsea,

how is that gonna affect your medical practice?

Is she gonna quit her job, like Chelsea?

Well, I think that time is fast approaching.

Chelsea and Kat are a pair of very ambitious young women.

That's right. Go-getters.

Chelsea's popularity as a social media influencer

gives them a little edge.

Managing my practice pales in that comparison.

Well, at least you'll have more time to prepare than Dani did.

TED: Yeah.

It was a sudden departure.

Yeah, and I'm worried that this transition

is gonna be really hard on her.

And you would know from experience.

Oh, yes, we do.

When Dani announced she was gonna quit school

and pursue a modeling career?

Oh, the drama.

Crying, screaming, tantrums.

And that was just me.

[laughter]

Well, in retrospect, it wasn't easy,

but I suppose it was necessary.

What do you mean?

If everything in the past had to happen

so that Dani, today,

can show the kind of grace she's shown Chelsea,

then it's worth it.

They're here.

-Who? -Chelsea and Kat.

They're gonna use my studio to get ready for the fashion show.

Oh, I-I didn't expect to...

Oh, it makes sense.

The lighting's better here for makeup and all that.

Mm.

Got it.

I probably don't need to say this,

but I haven't shared with anyone that you and I are...

Friends?

-Yeah. -Ah.

With extraordinary benefits.

-Extraordinary, huh? -Mm-hmm.

And that look...

-What look? -That one, right there.

That hungry one.

You might want to keep a lid on that

-when my daughter and niece are here. -Mm-hmm.

Okay, I got it.

-Um, I'll be good. -Okay.

You know, I got to say that I actually kind of enjoy

being your guilty pleasure.

-You do? -Yeah.

It's kind of hot, actually.

DANI: Oh, what a surprise!

-Hello. -Hi, Aunt Dani.

-Hi. -Hello.

Hi, sweetheart. Mwah.

Hi.

Andre, what are you doing here?

Uh, Dani asked me to come over to commemorate the occasion,

so I figured I would snap up some behind-the-scenes.

-That's pretty exciting. -It is.

Oh, guess what, Mom.

Samantha's gonna be my assistant for the show.

That's wonderful. Nothing like passing the torch.

All my friends are gonna be so jelly.

Already they're posting about the event.

They don't even know that I'm helping out.

You are gonna miss this life a little, though, right?

I-I've seen all your live streams.

You have an amazing life.

You get to travel, wear gorgeous clothes,

meet celebrities...

From the mouths of babes, Chels.

Maybe you should listen to your cousin.

Here's what I've learned so far in life, Samantha.

When the spirit tells you it's time to move,

you get to stepping.

That's what Mom did, and at a much younger age than me.

Right, Mom?

I-I don't know what the spirit is telling you to do,

but I am very happy and grateful that I got

to work with my baby for as long as I did.

And now we are gonna end this thing with a bang,

have a fabulous show and raise a ton of money for charity.

-That's awesome. -Mm-hmm.

And then Chelsea and Kat are going to move on

to their next big thing,

and I am going to be their biggest fan.

Thank you for being so cool with this, Mom.

You're welcome, sweetie.

SAMANTHA: What's the next thing?

KAT: We are gonna show you.

Okay, uh, Andre and I have to get to the club

to set up shots, but first let's take some photos here.

-Let's get, uh, mother/daughter first? -Okay.

ANDRE: In the back.

♪ ♪

All right, looks good.

All right. And three, two, boom.

So, the key to a live stream: light.

And then if I move, you just move with me.

-Oh, I see. -Mm-hmm.

-This looks great. -Okay.

Okay.

Five, four, three...

Hey, everybody.

So, as some of you know, we're counting down

to my last stroll down the catwalk.

But, hey, no crying. It's gonna be great.

And live streamed, so you get to see one last show.

And best of all, it's for charity.

There'll be a link for those of you that are watching

to donate to the Dupree Heritage Foundation First-Gen Grant

that'll fund scholarships for kids

who are the first generation in their families

to go to college.

What better way to end a career than by doing good for others?

But you won't be rid of me yet.

My cousin, Kat-- Come on, Kat.

-Hi, everybody. -[both laugh]

My cousin Kat and I are launching our own fashion line.

We're starting off with just bags,

which you'll get a sneak peek of tonight,

and then expanding into a full clothing line.

So, be sure to tune in tonight.

You do not want to miss this.

[chuckles]

You did great, Samantha. We'll post it in a sec.

SAMANTHA: There's a lot more that goes on behind the scenes

than people realize.

You are gonna miss this life a little, though, right?

Look at these dresses.

I can't imagine what it would be like

to wear things like this on the regular.

Try one on.

Are you kidding?

Yeah, we have time.

We'll be your stylists. It'll be fun.

How about this one?

Oh, and these shoes.

I told you this was gonna be fun.

[both laughing]

♪ ♪

You two are miracle workers.

That runway is terrific.

It looks like New York Fashion Week.

We wanted everything to be on point.

We know how important this event is to you personally, Dani.

If it's the last, it will be the best.

Did you get a look at the silent auction tables?

People were so generous with their donated packages.

You have outdone yourselves, honestly.

Oh, excuse me.

Hi, fam.

Oh. Thank you for coming.

Of course. We wouldn't miss it.

-You know that. -Not for the world.

Well, I know how much you hate these things, Daddy,

so it means a lot that you're here

and that you made a very generous donation

to the silent auction.

We love a good charity event,

and we want to do everything we can to support it.

Do I recognize a certain '60s vintage dress?

Maybe.

Mm.

That's the one you wore at Madison Square Garden

-after you went solo. -Mm-hmm.

I have wonderful memories of that concert.

[laughing]

And you will still have all of those

wonderful memories, Daddy, with or without the dress.

Plus, it is for a good cause.

All right. Go, explore.

-Spend lots of money. -All right.

-We'll start soon. -Mm-hmm.

How are you doing?

I'm all right for the moment.

The Silas Riker dress just arrived.

The one you wore back in the day and made famous.

End of one era, beginning of another.

The only thing left is to support Chelsea and Kat

in their massive leap into the future.

That is my only focus today.

Tomorrow, I might have a different answer.

I will check on you tomorrow, then.

And every day for as long as it takes

for you to feel like you're on solid ground.

We all love you, Dani, and we're all here to support you.

-Remember that. -Thanks, Sissy.

I love you.

Do you miss it?

The dress?

Daddy's bidding on it, so I'll get it back.

I meant the life.

Maybe. A little.

-There you go. Cheers. -Thank you.

When Dani puts her mind to something,

-she really gets it done. -That's Dani.

Boundless energy.

-Nothing my baby girl can't do. -[chuckles]

Where's the kids?

Uh, Tyrell had chess club tonight,

but Samantha will be here.

-Okay. It'll be good to see my grandbaby. -Yeah.

MARTIN: Kat and Chelsea took her under their wing this evening.

How did that happen?

-KAT: Yes, girl! -CHELSEA: Oh, my God!

[squealing, excited chatter]

KAT: [gasps] Oh, wow.

You wear that like it was made for you.

Okay, let's get you on the runway.

No. I'd trip over my feet.

Here. I'll break it down for you.

So, the runway is not a beauty pageant.

It's not about you. It's about the clothes.

So that should help you feel a little less self-conscious.

Okay, cool.

-Not about me but the clothes. -Mm-hmm.

Shoulders back, chest out,

and find a point on the wall to stare at,

at the end of the runway.

And do not smile.

Don't smile?

Nope. 'Cause it's not about you. It's about...?

-The clothes. -Right.

And when you get to the end of the runway,

stop ever so slightly,

pose to show the audience some angles of the outfit,

and then come right back up the same way you went down.

Okay.

Yep. You got it.

So, shoulders back, chest out and walk.

Mm-hmm.

Okay. Yeah. Arms still. Mm-hmm.

-You got it. Walk straight. -Okay.

Yep. You got it.

Good job. Pose.

Another one.

[laughs] Okay, let's turn around.

-Stand up. Let's walk. -Ooh.

-You got it. You got it. -Yes, hello.

Yes.

-Oh, sweet. -Okay, I'm gonna let go.

Yes. Pose.

-[gasps] What? -Look at this beauty.

-Oh. Oh! -[laughs]

All right. Girl, you really got the hang of it.

-Impressive. -Yes.

-[laughter] -[phone chimes]

-Oh, uh, that's Mom. -Time to go.

Mm-hmm.

-You made it. -[chuckles] Of course.

This is a big night for Chelsea.

-And for you, Mom. -I love you, baby.

I love you, too. Okay, I know you're busy,

so I'll just go find the grands.

-No Jacob? -No, he had to work.

-But I'll see you in there. -All right.

Okay. I just spoke to Kat. They're on the way.

Lighting and sound checked?

-It's a go. -Models are backstage and ready?

-Absolutely. -And how about the live streaming tripod?

-Set? -Yes.

-Okay. -You're all good on that front.

-Thank you. -Mm-hmm.

Showtime.

It's simple, just like at Aunt Dani's.

Hit "record" when the show starts,

and make sure no one stands in front of you

-or obstructs the camera. -Got it.

Hi.

I didn't expect you to be here.

I wanted to surprise you, so I bought a ticket.

That's sweet.

But I have to be backstage most of the time,

so you're on your own.

Todo bien, nena.Do your thing.

Are you free after? I could catch up with you then.

Love it. It's a plan.

I am so amped for this, you guys.

Hanging out with Kat and Chelsea was lit.

They didn't treat me like a little kid at all.

How can they? You're a mature young woman.

And growing more beautiful by the minute.

We're glad you're having a good time.

Although I'm sure you're a little disappointed

she's probably not entering into politics.

It is the family business, after all.

Influencers have more clout than politicians, you know.

I think you're right about that.

I think it's one third of people

even know who their congressman is.

Oh, do not let Martin hear you say that.

It will depress him.

Speaking from personal experience,

I've had a crush on a celebrity influencer for years.

-I do everything she tells me to. -[scoffs]

-Hey, son. -Did you bid on something?

I sure did. I found a bracelet

that would be a good anniversary gift,

but I have to keep it a secret away from your mother.

And you know she has an uncanny way about finding out things.

[both laugh]

Comes with the therapist territory.

-Yeah. -I heard you and Mom

are having an anniversary party.

Let me know how I can help.

Thanks. Son, I meant to mention something to you.

What you did tonight for Samantha was thoughtful.

She's walking on air.

That was the plan.

Every kid that age needs to feel special every now and then.

Kids can be brutal to each other.

Tyrell's an example.

Wait, what happened?

Smitty and I are pretty sure that Tyrell

is getting picked on at school.

He came home the other day a little roughed up.

Gave this lame cover story, but we don't buy it.

Smitty's gonna find out what he can.

And then what?

And we'll put a stop to it.

You're a very take-charge type of guy.

That's how you get anything done.

Well, in politics maybe, but this situation is different.

He's an adolescent boy who's confused

about everything in life.

Especially an event like this,

where he's embarrassed and possibly confused.

If you two come in to the rescue

without giving him an opportunity

to figure things out,

he's gonna think that you guys

don't trust him to handle his own problems.

I'm sorry, son.

You didn't ask for my advice.

It's fine, Dad.

Um, I appreciate it.

I'll give it some thought.

-Hi, Andre. -Hey there.

Ah. It's quite an event.

Yes, it is.

The kind of thing that Dani does best.

Which is why I wanted to say thank you

for suggesting that I check in on her.

I've actually been wondering lately if I overstepped

talking to you about her.

I don't think so. I appreciated it.

-Sometimes even a sister doesn't see all the signs. -Yeah.

But I am glad that you prompted me to look in on her.

You know, she and I have been working together,

prepping for this event.

This is really her strong suit.

Uh, what's your take on how she's doing now?

She has been open with me

about putting on a show tonight, literally and figuratively.

The real test will be what happens

when all of this goes away.

-Hmm. -I guess we'll find out shortly.

Yeah.

I recognize you.

You were the young man who was having breakfast

with my granddaughter the other day.

Yes, Senator Dupree, I was.

Kat and I are friends. I'm Tomas, Tomas Navarro.

Hey, Ted. This young man is Kat's new boyfriend.

Is that right? I'm her father.

-And I'm Kat's brother. -And I'm her brother-in-law.

Tell us about yourself.

Dani, you have done a magnificent job, as always.

It'll be fine.

I know.

And then it'll be over.

You know, Chelsea isn't leaving you.

She's not rejecting you.

She's simply moving on.

With life, her life.

She's just ready.

Like you were when you left home.

I was such a hell-raiser back then.

You must have hated me.

[laughs]

Impossible.

I was just afraid for you.

But clearly I didn't need to be, because look at the competent,

successful woman you turned out to be.

You have proven you can surmount any challenge

and handle anything life hurls at you.

-Thanks, Mom. -Mm-hmm.

[chuckles]

-It's about to start. -Come on.

Let's go see my grandbaby tear up that stage.

All right.

So, you said you're a lawyer?

-Yes, sir. -Where?

-Bill Hamilton's firm. -Huh.

Would you consider Bill Hamilton a mentor?

Well, uh, I-I think he's a pretty good boss.

But obviously, the way he treated Mrs. Hamilton--

I-I mean, the former Mrs. Ham--

Dani Dupree.

Well, that wasn't... great.

Well, that's an understatement.

-SMITTY: Mm-hmm. -You can say that again.

I understand your concern.

You're wanting to protect your daughter, sister, granddaughter.

I assure you, I have the utmost respect for Kat.

I would never...

[laughing]

You think we're worried about Kat?

We're worried about you, Tomas.

-She's a spitfire. -I sure wouldn't cross her.

Oh, no, that'd be a big mistake.

-She'd take your neck off. -You remember that last guy?

-Wasn't pretty. -Ooh. -Yeah.

[laughing]

-What are you guys doing? -TED: Baby girl.

Come on. I need you, right now.

Bye, Tomas.

[laughter]

Samantha, there's been a change of plans.

Chels needs you backstage right away.

Tomas will take over the live stream.

Me? They-they need me?

Yes. Mm-hmm.

Tomas, you are a lifesaver.

-I think you are. -[chuckles]

DANI: All right, everybody!

Let's get this party started.

Just put me in a dress and threw me out onto the runway.

It was a moment of inspiration.

Chels and I were messing around at Aunt Dani's house,

and we could see Samantha was a real natural.

All she needed was a few pointers and a little shove.

Well, I gave the pointers

-and Kat gave the shove. -[laughter]

-My heart's pounding. -Great job all around.

-Chelsea. -It's time.

Later.

I want to do this forever.

Like, what did you do, like, first?

Well, yes, that's exactly how I felt.

[laughter]

Well, wh-what'd you do first?

Well, Samantha, maybe we just need to calm down,

-you know, from the high before making plans. -Yeah. Yeah.

Uh, okay, um...

Listen, honey, you can ask me

anything you want, but I got to go.

-All right, see you. -SAMANTHA: Is that okay with you guys?

We will talk about it as a family, okay?

-Okay, let's do that now. -SMITTY: Yeah, after the show.

We don't want to miss the finale.

-SAMATHA: Oh. -Bye. Good job.

-Yeah. -Let's go.

[both squeal]

It is now time for our showstopper.

Gracing the runway in a stunning masterpiece by Silas Riker,

complemented by a one-of-a-kind handbag

designed by none other than the model herself.

[applause]

I give you the talented, creative and amazing

-Chelsea Hamilton! -[cheering and applause]

[upbeat rap music playing]

[music continues indistinctly under applause]

[Anita whoops]

-What do you think? -I got to say,

I was skeptical, but this was cool, very cool.

[applause continues]

[music ends]

Mom, would you please come up here with me?

Did everyone have a wonderful time tonight?

[cheering and whooping]

MAN: Great job.

This exquisite woman

put every detail of this together.

This is my mother,

my momager, Dani Dupree.

-[applause] -ANITA: Bravo.

This brilliant woman mentored me in life and in the business.

This woman taught me how to work hard, save my money

and keep my nose to the grindstone.

She instilled in me a love of family

and the value of loyalty

when there is sometimes little to be found in this world.

I am only successful because of the love, hard work,

savvy and, frankly, street smarts

that my wildly creative and brilliant mother has taught me.

Without her undying love and support to rely on

and her iconic example to look up to,

I would not have the courage to move on to my next challenge.

Mom, I am so proud of you,

and I love you so, so much.

[cheering and applause]

ANITA: Bravo!

-Bravo! -Bravo!
