All language subtitles for Head Over Heels 2024 Hallmark 720p WEB-DL HEVC-Poke

Fashionistas and trendsetters, polish up
your stilettos and bring out your

finest couture because Fashion Week is
officially four weeks away and we have

some tea to spill.

Rumor has it, former queen of designer
footwear Delaney Diaz is vying to regain

her throne.

But after Delaney's public stumble from
high fashion, she's gonna need to put

her best foot forward.

It's make or break time. Will Delaney
rule the runways again or be destined

the walk of shame? Stay tuned.

Looks like a whole new shoe. Well, Mr.
Simmons likes to stand out.

Just because he works in construction
doesn't mean he can't be stylish.

You have so many great designs.

I bet if we tried, we could make some of
these right here in the shop.

Oh, we're barely keeping up with
repairs.

Besides, I doubt Mr. Simmons is in the
market for kitten heels.

She's down.

You sing my little angel to sleep?

Oh, your little angel thinks that I need
a vocal coach.

In five months, her father will be on
leave, and he can take over the lullaby

duties. Well, I have been trying to
teach your thumbs down.

Oh, thank you so much for that. Yeah,
she's really got the spirit of it, for

sure. By the way, you're going to be
singing my praises pretty soon.

I got you a job.

Another one?

I still have to sell goodie bags for
Ruby's birthday party. No, no, no, no. I

met this lady, Janice, at Mommy and Me
class.

And she works in HR at Delaney Diaz. She
said that there's an opening at the

front desk. Wait, the Delaney Diaz? I
don't get the excitement about her.

Dad, she is a pioneer in women's
designer footwear.

Look at this app.

Crystal shoes are practical.

That's not the point.

It shows that artistry and new ideas can
emerge in unexpected places.

A Diaz is one of a kind.

Apparently.

Mrs. Hollingsworth said the same thing
when she dropped off her Diaz's.

Where? And let me guess, she asked for
Addie's specifically?

She's her number one customer for a
reason. I can't believe how much money

makes buying these old designer shoes
and having you to restore them.

Look at this iconic shoe.

Suede insoles create a luxurious foot
pad.

She was at the top of her game when
these came out.

Was is the key word, though. She's
traded style for sellability with her

stuff. Too much success can ruin a
brand.

I still think she's brilliant.

I think your designs are better.

Listen, it's just a receptionist job for
now, but it's also a foot in the door.

You know, maybe you could show her your
designs.

It would be cool to meet her.

I'll think about it.

Can't. I already told her that you would
be perfect for the job, so she wants to

interview you tomorrow.

Claudia, no!

I mean, what about the shop?

Dad and I have got the shop.

It's Manhattan.

It's really far away.

Dad, what do you think?

I want my daughters to follow their
dreams.

What are you doing? Get out of here.

And another one bites the dust.

Picking up or dropping off?

I'm here for Janice. I'm interviewing
for the receptionist job. Oh, thank the

good Lord. You're hired.

Sit, Thomas. You must be Addie Connors,
Claudia's sister?

Yes. Well, you came at the perfect time.
We have a more pressing position that

just opened.

Oh, no, she can't.

Look at her outfit.

She's not ready.

Ignore him. Thomas is filling in. He's
our floater. Actually, I'm her

Floater's below my pay grade. Thank you
for your service.

Come on, Addie.

Let's go chat.

Delaney Diaz, please hold.

I'm not going to sugarcoat it, Addie.
This place is not for the weak. I hope

know how to juggle.

Oh, I'm a good multitasker. I answer the
phones at my father's shop while

working the register.

How are you with people?

Delaney is, let's say, particular.

Oh, people always say I'm cheerful.

Could be worse, I guess.

This is our main design area.

Wow.

This is a dream.

I cannot believe I am standing where
Delaney Diaz shoes are made. Used to be

made. We don't do couture anymore.

I mean, our designers have everything
within reach to test fabric, stitching,

color combos. But we send out their
designs for samples to be made.

This was Delaney's assistant's desk.

She didn't even take her personals. The
tantrum I saw earlier?

Kendra. I knew she wouldn't last long.
She cried on day two.

How long did she work here? Three weeks.

Better than most.

The fifth assistant we've lost this
year. Janice, payroll needs to speak

you ASAP. Kendra's seeking psychological
damages.

Not another one.

Okay, Delaney has a meeting in 15
minutes. Thomas, we need to clear this

she sees it. Can you? Sure.

Oh, what's that? I think my phone's
ringing and a delivery's here and the

lobby's on fire.

I'll get it.

You are a savior. The kitchen is through
there.

Come to reception when you're done, but
be quick.

Delaney will lose her mind if she sees
you in those flats.

Oh, no.

I am so sorry.

It's okay.

I didn't see you come out. You know
what? I can fix this.

Come with me.

Taking shoes off.

Why do I feel like I'm getting mugged?

Call the fashion police because I'm
saving both our jobs. Delaney cannot see

coffee stain shoes on the floor.

Are you a new designer?

Me? Oh, no. I applied for the
receptionist job.

I made them two -tone so that they'd
have a little bit more flair.

I like them. I actually love them.

Oh.

Oh.

Sorry, I was just trying to put them
over there. Yeah.

Thank you.

Addie Connors.

Austin Strickland.

I'm impressed. You're...

You're kind of like a rebel, busting
into the design studio like that.

I like to think of myself as a creative
problem solver.

What were you doing over there?

Oh, Delaney's assistant quit. I was
helping clean up her stuff.

How long have you worked here for?

Oh, I've known these offices since I
could walk.

Well, now you can walk around the
offices in custom shoes.

Maybe you'll get a raise.

Maybe you will.

Come with me.

Um, I actually have to meet with Janice
to finish my interview.

Oh, trust me. Have someone you need to
meet.

Wow.

They're off.

No.

It's the ladies.

Uh, are you sure we can be in here?

Oh, relax.

Embrace your rebellious side. It's more
fun that way.

But she has a meeting right now. What if
they catch us?

I know.

Now it's with me and you.

Delaney!

You look ravishing today.

I don't succumb to fodder, you know
that.

Yeah. Who is this? Why is she in my
office?

I would like for you to meet your new
assistant.

Addie Connors.

What happened to Kipper?

Uh, Kipper?

Kendra! Yeah, no, she left.

Weakling. Okay. We have about a month
until Fashion Week. You need someone

reliable.

This is reliable?

Mm -hmm.

Have you seen her shoes?

Have you seen mine?

Where did you get those?

Five minutes ago, here, thanks to Addie
Connor.

You smile a lot.

Yeah. Well, how could I not? I am
standing in front of Delaney freaking

mean, come on.

Okay, you can go now.

Before you call security on me, I just
have to say I think you're a genius, a

legend in footwear. Wearing your shoes
is like putting your best foot forward.

Uh, anyway, that's all.

It's been an honor, and love your
office.

Good.

Yeah, listen, hear me out. Jesus.

Filled with potential.

It's not the end of the world. I still
have a job here.

I just shouldn't have gone.

Delaney Diaz is a star.

Light years away from someone like me. I
mean, look at my shoes.

I don't belong in Manhattan.

I just shouldn't have turned into a
crazed fangirl and completely

myself. At least you didn't ask for an
autograph.

Did you?

What? Did they send you a restraining
order?

I got the job on a trial basis, but they

want me to be Delaney Diaz's assistant.

Good morning, new girl. See you dressed
for your funeral. Good thinking ahead.

Planning ahead would be getting the
mouthy floater the best declare in

Connecticut. I like you.

Delaney left this for you.

Oh.

Um, when does she want all this done?

I don't have a question.

Why not? What happens?

Hmm, your funeral.

I'm doing it.

Just breathe.

You can do this.

I had a lip. I gave it to Addie this
morning.

Oh, Delaney.

Good morning. How are you today?

I don't do small talk, especially not
before I've had my iced chai latte.

Well... Oh, you want me to speak?

Iced chai latte was on the list.

Oh, right.

I put it right on your desk, and I
watered your orchid.

Seems you watered the latte as well.

Sorry, I can get you another one.

And what pretail have you accomplished
today? Where's my dry cleaning?

I thought that was the lower priority. I
was going to pick that up tomorrow.

It was on the list for today.

I thought this list was for the week.

Well, you thought wrong.

Right. I'm on it.

And for the food for the meeting, did
you expect an iced chai latte ten

ago? Yes, I did.

Ooh, Delaney does not like food on the
workspace.

Great. Another thing I messed up.

I have until Fashion Week to not get
fired.

I don't think I'm going to make it
through this trial period. She already

me. Just give her a chance.

You know, that tough exterior, there's a
really good heart. You just got to keep

digging. Oh, yeah? With an excavator?

Sometimes.

Delaney came up with a business
dominated by men. She had to be fierce

succeed.

You know, you're really good at public
relations.

And you really do ooze of positivity and
charm.

So what's your story?

How did you see through her tough
exterior?

Delaney was my mom's best friend, and
when my mom passed away, she stuck

I'm sorry.

I lost my mom, too, a few years ago.

You really do remember who supports you
in that time.

Is that why you represent her now?

No, my father owns the PR company, and
Delaney has been a longtime client, not

without challenges.

especially since she got sued for
stealing ideas by her assistant.

The guy was disgruntled. It was all
false, but the headlines and the rumors

remain, which I think is what hardened
her a bit.

Well, yeah, I can understand why.

Yeah, well, I'm trying to get her back
to the top, but Fashion Week is make it

or break it for all of us.

Oh, is she in trouble?

Franco Schuster is attempting a hostile
buyout. He wants to use her label as his

discount brand.

If I don't get any buyers on this runway
show I'm part of, she's going to be

forced to sell.

That would ruin her legacy.

You think more like Delaney than you
know.

I knew sticking my neck out for you
would pay off.

What?

These are supposed to attract buyers?

The meeting's in a few minutes.

Don't blame me. I'm just a pretty face.

You're not quitting on me just yet, are
you? No, never.

Just give me a few seconds.

Perfect.

Hurry. The lady's within striking
distance. Here, grab the number. Okay.

Here we go.

Here, here.

Yeah, that looks great.

Okay. Perfect.

That's great.

Everything is ready for the buyer's
meeting.

Not bad, right?

Adequate. Finally.

Please.

After you have a seat.

Thanks, everyone. Shall we get started?

Now, as you can see, we've done the pump
in a very classic style.

This holds a wide appeal, I think, to
your clientele. We can do that in a

variety of colors.

The boot we've done in this beautiful
calfskin.

Again, a very familiar design to help
move volume.

The boots?

I'll take as many units as the
manufacturer can produce before next

Excellent. I will have the team get on
that right away.

If I may, Renee, just the boots?

At this price, how can I refuse?

My apologies. There appears to be a
little misprint.

I am so sorry. I didn't realize that the
numbers corresponded with the prices.

Well, Renee, we won't waste any more of
your precious time.

I will personally see to it that you get
the correct price list, and we can

reconvene at a later date.

We're meeting with Franco Chausseur
later this week.

Are you sure you want to reschedule?

I'm sure that you and I can work
something out.

Why don't we talk a little more in my
office?

Often, would you?

Right this way.

I'm so sorry. I was rushing to get
things ready and I wanted to look nice.

They're tools of apathy.

All they do is ensure that your life
remains the same today as it was

Now, is that what you want for yourself?

No.

Oh, four days ago.

I'm sorry.

I'm so stressed with this new job.

Where's Ruby?

With Aunt Carla. She got a deal on these
Jordan almonds and insisted that I use

them in the goodie bags.

Oh, well, at least let me help.

Oh, how was your first day?

Ever heard the saying, never meet your
idols?

Oh, is she that bad?

No, it's me.

I'm not cut out for this job.

World. Hey, you are an incredible
designer. This world needs to be cut out

you. I just don't know if I can keep up.

Why don't you stick his neck out for me?

He who?

Um, Austin. He's the PR guy. I ruined
his shoes and then I fixed them and he

stood up for me with Delaney and got me
the job.

Wow. Real Prince Charming.

Isn't he cute?

So what's your move tomorrow, huh?
You're going to stain his shirt and

gets you a raise? Or, better yet, he
could take it off for you.

Claudia, you're a mother. Yeah, because
Scott took his shirt off.

No, he works for Delaney. It's too
risky.

But this is my one chance to live out my
dream, and with my idol, no less.

I doubt Delaney even wants me back.

I'm sure I will get an email from HR any
moment.

She

wants me to

pick up her dry cleaning.

See?

Mean, pretty women are never stupid.

She knows she's got a gem.

Oh, stop.

Oh, I'm so lucky to have you here for me
and Ruby while Scott's away.

I'll always be here for you.

Both of you.

Wait, where are you going?

I'm going to read your closet because I
need help with a new wardrobe. Not the

new one!

Oh, that might...

Maybe you need an extra hand.

And then some, thank you.

Come have a seat with me.

I can't let Delaney's ice melt.

Right, yeah. Well, I'm going to show you
a trick so it never melts again.

Come on.

Okay, so what is this trick?

Well, all you have to do is grab a batch
of fresh ice on your way out.

Voila.

Oh, that is very clever.

I owe you one.

I was hoping you'd say that.

I'm trying to get Delaney to one of my
events. Do you think you could help me

out with that?

Me? I can't get her to do anything.

You got this.

Um,

I can try.

Oh!

No, no, no. Allow me.

Oh. Oh, what is this?

That's nothing. This is a notebook.

This was a good campaign.

Yeah. I would know. I came up with it.

Yeah, when I was in college, my dad
invited me to go into one of the

meetings. I had the audacity to speak
up.

They loved it.

And that was it.

I can't believe that.

This ad has inspired me so much. And it
was you.

What are these?

Oh, they're nothing. They're just
sketches. I like to draw when I'm at my

shop.

It's just a hobby. I'm not a designer or
anything.

Well, this notebook says otherwise.

I am just trying to survive Delaney's
shoe empire.

Oh, I get that.

For now, you might want to tuck this
away.

I mean, Delaney has some trust issues.
She doesn't discuss anything other than

with her design team. You should see
their contracts. They're ironclad.

Just promise me one thing.

Don't pitch her just yet.

Because if you do, we might never work
in the city ever again.

Oh. Yeah.

Understood.

So what's this event?

Technically, it's my dad's event. But I
have a few out -of -the -box ideas I

want to pitch, which is why I need
Delaney.

And if...

You wanted to come by and maybe be her
bumper, huh? Her bumper?

Yeah. What is that?

You know how much she hates the chit
-chat and smiling for cameras?

I think I can handle that. Yeah? Yeah. I
really think with a bulletproof vest

and some sunglasses.

Well, I admire your unwavering faith in
me. I know special when I see it.

Um, but in all honesty, though, earn
Delaney Diaz a truck, and she'll invite

in.

And then she'll have you sign a 50 -page
contract.

Easy. Yeah, she doesn't fire me first.

Well, make sure that doesn't happen.
We'll just get some more ice.

Okay.

No, walking on glass would be more
comfortable.

We've all tested very well.

With who? Someone with hoops?

Is it a medical condition?

Oh, no, no, no. I just... Sentences, my
love, sentences.

Well, why not go back to the Sweden
soul?

Mrs. Hollingsworth loves the Sweden
soul. She says that it's like walking on

air. I'm sorry, who is Mrs.
Hollingsworth?

Oh, she's a client at my dad's shoe
repair shop.

What school did you graduate from?

Parsons, NYU?

Oh, um...

None of the above. But I did take
courses at community college.

I'll let the team go back to the drawing
board.

Just take out the millennial collection
and let's have a look at the suede

insole.

Have you lost your mind?

Because of the insoles?

You have me attending an art opening
hosted by Robert Strickland. They are

notoriously boring.

Thank God Austin inherited his mother's
creativity.

Well, he's invited a lot of press.

I think it's a great idea.

You do?

And how many reporters have tried to
mortify you for a clickbait?

Well, Morgan Humphries once took a photo
of my skirt tucked into my tights and

sent it to the entire 10th grade. I was
horrified. I even called my dad to come

pick me up, but he told me I had to stay
and face it.

And then Joey Lieberman ended up calling
Coach Thomas' mom and everyone forgot

about me for the rest of the day.

Okay, good. Next time, spare me the
details of your painfully tedious

Just cancel.

Oh, but Austin would be so disappointed.

He has one of his out -of -the -box
ideas.

His dad's been really hard on him.

I know it would mean a lot if you could
see it.

Austin's father is very hard on him
sometimes.

All right, I'll make an appearance.
Fifteen minutes, no more.

But no less. I will let him know. And
you will not let any reporters near me.

And you will never do that again.

Addie, what are you doing?

Dad was about to call the cops. He
thought it was another break -in. I

I would work on Mrs. Hollingsworth's
shoes.

I'm so far behind.

Well, I can help.

You're busy enough with Ruby.

Exactly. So when I need you to babysit,
you're going to owe me big time.

So, I was thinking popcorn and movies at
your place for dinner tomorrow.

I actually have an art show I have to go
to.

Oh! An art show. That's great.

So, what are you going to wear?

I don't know.

Black, I guess.

No.

You're going to wear red.

I can't. These are Mrs.

Hollingsworth's shoes.

I bet if you call her and ask, she will
let you borrow them. She adores you.

Okay, I will call her and ask.

They are pretty.

Should we grab a photo on the carpet?

If you have to grab for status, Addie,
then you don't have any.

Where's Austin?

I texted him that we were here.

He'll probably come find us.

Typical Robert Strickland event.

Where I've been in an elevator is more
exciting.

Man has not changed in 20 years.

Well, Austin says he has something out
of the box.

Well, time is ticking. Why don't you go
get him before I fall asleep?

Of course.

Austin. Hattie, you made it. Yeah.

Have you seen Delaney?

Yeah, she's here.

Oh, she's over there.

Is that a smile? Yeah, that is.

Betty Badgley from the Rathsmore
Foundation.

That means we have ten minutes.

Come on, I want to show you something.

So,

what

do you think?

Amazing. The iconic crystal shoe.

Yeah, I knew you'd appreciate that.

You've created a very cool vibe.

The party should be down here.

Yeah, it's the only spot my dad let me
have. He probably thought I was going to

be out of the way.

But this is why I need Delaney. Do you
think people will follow her down here?

Do you think your dad would announce
there's a party down here?

We don't want people to think Delaney's
just running off.

Ever heard of a whisper campaign?

I hear there's a hot party downstairs.

Why are we wasting time up here?

Hmm?

Shall we?

A whisper campaign?

That is genius.

Where'd you come up with that?

I thought in a movie once.

Muppets Take Manhattan.

Would it work?

You are full of surprises.

So beautiful.

Your iconic shoe.

Well, not quite.

But yes, there is some beauty.

Oh, it looks like your father finally
found the party.

Time to face the music.

How come they don't see eye to eye?

After Austin's mother died, Robert threw
himself into his work.

He just wanted safety and stability.

And Austin, you know, is very
adventurous and naturally rebellious

mother. So I think that's a bit hard for
Robert. They clash, you know.

He's so talented.

It's a shame his dad doesn't encourage
him more.

Yeah, he does.

Anyway, my glass is empty and I don't
want to linger in front of my own

It's a little tacky.

Shall we?

Ready? Do you get those shoes?

Oh, my friend let me borrow them. I
wanted to represent you all tonight.

Indeed.

Excuse me. I'm so sorry to interrupt.

Delaney, I also need to speak with you
over there.

Oh, I'm so sorry. Judy Cole.

Nice to see you.

What took you so long?

You look like you were having fun. Are
you kidding?

I almost cured my insomnia. Lainey Diaz.

Well, it has been a while since your
last public outing, and I see we are

parading out in old design triumphs.
Tonight, what happened?

Couldn't steal any new designs to show.

Oh, stealing designs. Well, no, I would
think that's your M .O.

You haven't written anything new or
noteworthy since the last time you

accused me. It is quite...

Noteworthy that Franco Choussour is
ready to make your name a hot seller in

bargain basement.

Any comment on a potential buyout, my
readers would love to know.

Excuse me, I need your help. Could you
just play along?

Oh, Delaney, this gentleman would like
to speak with you about the vintage

Well, sometimes the past is the present
to the future, especially with the

signature red heel.

Will there be a collaboration?

Delaney Diaz and Armand Alon.

Only time will tell.

That's all I can say for now.

Please do give us a scoop first.

We'll do that.

Anyways, enjoy the show.

Armand, thank you for saving me. You
know how these reporters are. Oh, I do

understand. Listen, I got to run.
Delaney, it was great seeing you again.

And I love these red shoes.

No.

Did I miss something good or bad?

That has yet to be determined.

I am so sorry. I didn't know who he was.
I was just trying to get rid of the

reporter. Well, congratulations, Addie.
You put out a candle with a forest fire.

You know what? I think I'm done here.

Hold on. One second.

Now everyone's talking about Delaney
Diaz.

Then we got to a custom report.

Well done, my darling.

You are your mother's son.

You did that?

Wow. Yeah, tell that to my dad. He
doesn't seem too impressed.

Well, you are a creative problem solver.

Bravo. Thank you.

You want to get out of here?

What about the event?

Oh, I'm sure my dad has it all under
control.

Besides, there's something I want to
show you.

That's what I told him. You're going to
be singing that song. You need to be

hitting that note. He loves to sing. He
loves to sing. He can't hit that note.

Are you cold?

A little bit. Okay, here.

Thank you.

Can I get your bag?

Thanks. Where are you taking me?

Well, this is my latest out -of -the
-box idea.

Wow.

The point is to make it rain Delaney
Diaz shoes early in the morning to get

buzz in the busiest laneway of the
district.

Want to try?

Uh, is it legal?

Legal. Like littering or something?

Well, as long as it doesn't touch the
ground.

Otherwise, I hope you have a good
lawyer.

Yeah.

I bet you can't make it to the third
line from here. Over there? All right,

we go.

Littering! No.

Citizen's arrest! You will not catch me!
Citizen's arrest!

I still can't believe you pulled over
Armand Alonso, the king of handbags

himself.

I know.

I fully expect a melted chai latte
dumped over my head in the morning

security escorts me out.

Not before she asks you to remove her
vintage shoes.

Did you know she designed those?

Where'd you get them?

They're out on loan.

I just wanted to fit in with the people
at the party. I mean, they're fantastic.

Urban chic.

Urban chic.

I like that.

We should use that in the show. Give
Delaney Diaz her edge.

she doesn't design anymore?

Well, I think she lost confidence.

The industry doesn't really take her as
seriously as they used to.

She had a few flops, lost a lot of
sales.

She had to transition towards, you know,
more basic models for department stores

to keep her brand afloat.

Was that her idea?

It was my dad's, actually.

And it worked.

I know she wants to go towards high
fashion, but she's afraid.

Well, she's about to get bought out.

Now's the time to take a risk.

I couldn't agree more, but we are
outnumbered.

No one wants to take risks right now.

Well, your ideas are great.

Social media is going to be buzzing
tomorrow morning about the runway, all

thanks to you.

You should start your own PR firm.

Do it your way.

Thank you.

But my father owns the biggest PR
company in all of New York.

I mean, I would love to call the shots,
but it's a big leap.

I wish I could practice what I preach,
but I'm still figuring out how or if I

have a voice in this industry.

I feel kind of lost.

Maybe... Maybe we all are.

All right, last chance.

Time to redeem yourself.

Okay.

You, um... You're gonna butt me out of
jail if that doesn't work, right? Like,

use that arm and throw a grappling hook
over the wall or something? No, you

really need my help.

Help me up here.

Nice. There we go.

I should go.

This was really fun, though. Thank you
for cheering me up.

Thank you.

It was.

I will get you a cab, and I hope I
will...

See you at work.

I really hope so.

Oh, good morning, Delaney.

I brought you little treats.

My sister made them.

She's serving them at my niece's first
birthday party.

Sorry, no more of my boring memoir.
They're chocolate truffles.

Processed sugar, saturated fat.

Okay.

I was hoping they could be an olive
branch after last night's little mishap.

Little mishap?

That's what you call yanking a world
-renowned handbag designer into your

rescue mission?

It will never happen again. I will not
let you down.

That remains to be seen. Where's my
schedule?

Oh.

Right here on your computer.

I need you to add lunch for tomorrow.

Of course. With whom?

Armand Allant, who the president will be
calling with details.

Make sure you give me enough time.

Oh.

I mean, oh, I will add it to your
calendar.

Excuse me. Sorry to bother. Is that
Delaney Diaz? Oh, yeah. It's her latest

shoe. Ah.

Is she making a comeback?

That's the idea. She has a show at
Fashion Week.

Oh. I thought her days of high fashion
were over.

She's reviving some of her signature
style.

Weight and fold and everything.

Hmm. Do you work for her? Yeah. I'm her
personal assistant. I'm Addie. Are you a

fan? I am.

Is that a part of her new line?

Oh. It's the day -to -night pump.

So women can go from the office to a
cocktail party without changing shoes. I

love it.

Am I able to see a little bit more of
that?

Fashion Week will have everything in our
show.

I look forward to it.

Well, I will let you get back to work.

Thanks again. Yeah.

What did Andrea Walker want?

Who?

The person we were just talking to,
Andrea Walker.

Oh, I didn't get her name.

She's a big fan of Delaney.

A fan.

A fan of a hostile takeover, maybe.

She works for Franklisher, sir.

What? I can't believe they sent a spy. I
mean, they do that. They're sneaky.

You didn't say anything, did you?

Uh, no, no. I just told her about the
show, that's all.

Dad, you need to give them more air.

Well, where's Addie? She's supposed to
be helping with Ruby's birthday. You

where.

I don't like this.

You don't like change.

She said she can't even fit her designs
at Delaney's, so what's the point?

Well, it's a foot in the door.

Plus, I think she has a work crush.

Heidi, I'm sorry I'm late.

Glad you're here. Claudia hates my
balloon technique.

Oh, how are things with Mrs.
Hollingsworth's shoes? She's coming on

Uh, don't tell me you forgot.

No, no, not at all. I'm on it. I'm just,
um, prioritizing. I'm your biggest

customer.

And what about this morning?

Where exactly do we fit on your priority
list?

It's not like you, Addie. Don't worry,
Dad. I'll take care of it.

Addie has a lot on her plate.

I'm still picking up the cake today.

Oh, no.

Is something wrong with the cake?

No, no. I have to go back into work.
There's an emergency meeting.

It's Sunday.

We have Ruby's party and Sunday dinner.

Work can wait.

You haven't missed Sunday dinner since
Mom died.

I am so sorry, but Delaney is having a
meltdown about the show.

But I promise I will be back for both,
and I'll have Aunt Carla pick up the

cake, okay?

Love you guys!

I just need you to look past. No, but
they even have the same scene. It's not

about the pants.

Look at the stitching.

I came as fast as I could. What's the
big emergency?

Franco Chaussure launches heels to take
you from the office to a cocktail party.

Yeah, that black pump is exactly like
ours. And we were going to use it for

big finale in the show. We can't use it
at all now. Now it's gone.

Poof. We are going to figure something
out.

They are clearly trying to sabotage the
show to lock in the buyout.

They even have a better tagline than we
do.

Why didn't we come up with that?

Fashion week is two weeks out. This is a
massive disaster.

Listen, we've come too far to let them
win, all right?

Okay, message Alexander. Tell him to get
the design team together to work on a

new finale shoe.

Addy, will you order us some food? It's
going to be a long night.

Oh, um, I kind of have a family
commitment.

I kind of have a crisis. You wanted a
job in fashion. This is the job.

It's happening.

So what do you think?

Nothing speaks to me. Everything seems
very basic.

These are our last sketches.

I can have the team start again
tomorrow, during working hours.

Oh, I'm sorry. Is securing the future of
our company a little inconvenient for

you, Alexander?

Not at all. I'm simply stating the
obvious.

You've rejected every design we have in
the office.

Okay.

I just need to think.

Will you gather all the maybes, and I'll
look at them later, okay?

Okay, so we both know that the maybes
are not going to cut it. Is there

that we can send the team?

Sorry, I can't call and give them
homework on a Sunday.

Tomorrow we can start right away.

Okay, we just need to convince her of
that.

That will take a miracle.

Oh no.

No, no, no. She will not listen to me.
She did about the sweet and salt.

I give her iced chai latte is not
business advice.

Just please go talk to her.

See where her head's at.

I'm thinking.

I know. I just wanted to see if you
needed anything.

A miracle.

So many so -called experts and not one
worthy shoe. Not one.

I think maybe you're looking for an
external solution for an internal

So this is my fault now?

No, no, no.

That's not what I meant.

But the brand is called Delaney Diaz for
a reason.

It was built from you.

So maybe you just need to look within
for the answers.

Well, I haven't designed in years. Last
time I did it was a total flop.

They said I was out of touch.

Well, that was then.

Truth is, I wasn't even crazy about that
black pump.

Now, those red shoes that you wore, some
of my best work.

My favorite collection.

Mine, too.

Where did you find that inspiration?

Well, when I was young, I used to sit on
the train and sketch.

Catch all the people around me from all
walks of life, from punks to power

brokers.

I loved it. I loved all the bold
contrast.

Well, maybe that's your answer.

The train, the power, the boldness, the
urban chic.

No, that's not what our buyers want.

Maybe it's what the people want.

People want what the buyers tell them to
want.

That's how it works.

We have to think of what we know.

We call the boys in. I think I need to
give the design team a clearer direction

for tomorrow.

I'm sorry, is there something more
important on your phone than my current

crisis?

Um, well... Addie, prosperity is born of
difficult

choices. Now, I think you have some
talent, but do you have what it takes to

a success?

Yes, I do.

Good.

Want to get back to work?

Right away.

Dad, you scared me.

Likewise.

Where were you today?

We had a crisis. A crisis?

The stock market crashing is a crisis. A
tsunami is a crisis.

What was so important that you had to
miss Ruby's party and Sunday dinner?

That's family tradition.

A totally new shoe for Fashion Week.

Delaney needed me.

I'm sorry I missed everything, but I
think I turned a corner with her.

She said I have talent.

Your sister was very hurt today by your
absence.

I was hurt.

Family comes first in this house.

Sunday dinner, it's how we honor your
mother.

I know.

I'm sorry.

Life's about balance.

This lady, does she even care about you
having to do menial tasks all day?

Addie, remember what matters.

Now get some sleep.

Talk more about this in the morning.

You look like the Walking Dead.

Thank you for the compliment.

Is this about the crisis?

How did you hear about that already?

She wants me to go downtown for spices?

Come on!

The assistant world is a thankless one.

Code magma. Major eruption.

Evacuate.

Addie? Everything okay?

You were going to commit career suicide
in the lobby.

If you need to take a pause, we can work
something out. There's no need to

involve Delaney.

Involve me how?

It's ten days to Fashion Week. Addie
just seems a bit overwhelmed.

Nothing to be alarmed about.

Is that so?

You're here early.

Oh, I never left.

Oh, look.

No latte.

Your feelings must be hurt.

Well, I need to talk to you.

I'll just be a phone call away.

Certified in mediation.

I... You know what? I am exhausted, so
another chapter of your memoir will send

me to the land of the undead.

You slept here?

I didn't sleep.

These are incredible.

These are perfect for the show.

Well, unfortunately not.

Oh, you're crazy.

No, I'm going to go with a design theme
on this one. We have a target market,

and this is not the time to take risks.
Well, some risks are worth taking. Your

genius is what launched this company. I
think that you should... Oh, is this

what you wanted to talk to me about?
Your expertise and experience in running

international brand?

I thought that I was going to be
learning more around here, not someone

aside to run errands. Errands are the
job, Addie.

Was that not made clear?

I missed my niece's birthday yesterday
and Sunday night dinner. And I haven't

missed a dinner since my mom passed.

Look, that's a hard choice. I'm sorry,
but it happens. This isn't me. I believe

in balance. I think I can still be
myself and hold on to what counts most.

should go home, Addie.

Right now? I mean, I was... Go home. I
will have Janice call you when it's time

to come back.

Okay, fine.

Surprise! What do you think?

I'm getting some influencers tomorrow to
go take some pictures in it.

Just to make a bit more noise on the
socials.

It's so fun.

I love it.

You know, you're my inspiration.

I am?

Yeah. I mean, your red pumps.

It's got everyone talking about how fun
and provocative Delaney Diaz shoes were.

It's R.

A.

You want to try it on?

Yeah.

You know, the store never really allowed
me to have interactive displays, but,

you know.

You can't be tamed.

You're absolutely beautiful.

Delaney fired me.

What?

No.

Yeah, I don't really blame her.

I mean, I don't really think I'm cut out
for this.

I don't want to be ruthless and cold.

Well, you're not, and neither is
Delaney.

Well, she coldly asked me to leave.

Uh -huh.

So, what are you still doing here?

Well, I made you a promise.

I don't want to let down the people
around me anymore.

That's a good quality to have.

Well, it's not a popular one. Most
people see it as weak.

Well, popular ideas aren't always the
right ones.

This is excellent.

I think it'll go viral.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, my father didn't let me do what I
wanted to do on the runway, so I figured

I'd do this instead.

Well, maybe it'll inspire Delaney.

She is sketching again.

Really? Yeah.

And they're amazing.

But she refuses to use them for the
show.

Well, maybe you got to her.

She didn't actually utter the words,
you're fired, did she?

No.

But it was implied.

There was a tone.

I'm just saying.

Hang on.

Maybe she'll surprise you.

This whole journey has been surprising.

I don't know if I can take it anymore.

I don't know how you handle this circus.

Well, that's what's great about it,
right?

Life, not knowing.

But if you gotta go, you gotta go.

But before you do go, I would love it if
you made me a clown shoe. You know,

just for old time's sake.

It would be the most stylish shoe you
own.

It would be an honor to wear your clown
shoe.

I should go.

Yeah. I have to catch the train and go
to my dad's to see my sister before I go

home.

Well, at least let me give you a ride.

Come on.

Look at all your gifts.

And I have a friend with me, Addie.

Can you believe this? This is
incredible.

Oh, hi.

You must be Austin, right?

Austin, the boy from work shift.

Nice to meet you both.

Thank you for letting me borrow Addie.
She's been a really big help.

What is all this?

Please accept my apologies for keeping
your aunt from such a special day. Thank

you for sharing. Best wishes, Delaney
Diaz. P .S.

Enjoy Monday dinner.

Are you sure that's from Delaney? I
thought I was fired.

Also, Addie, if you need the time off,
Janice will arrange it. I will be at the

office at 8 a .m. tomorrow.

That doesn't sound like a dismissal.

I told you, she cares.

Wow, I might be too shocked to eat.

Looks like your boss does know how to
prioritize.

Let's eat and we can get to know Austin
a little better.

Dad, do not be weird.

Please.

Let's dig in.

You're pretty good with your hands.

How are you with the leather?

You had the job, Dad.

I need an extra set of hands around here
now that you're leaving us for Delaney

Diaz.

I will always make time for you.

Life's about balance, right?

That's my girl.

From the best.

I should get her to bed. It might take a
while.

She requires lullabies.

Yeah, Claudia's tone deaf.

Oh, thank you.

You know what? Allow me.

You finish dessert.

Oh, wow.

Thanks, Austin.

You should know, though, that I am also
looking for a babysitter.

Well, I'm a jack -of -all -trades.

I'll send you my resume.

Okay.

Piece of keeper.

Let's see if we can finish this before
we start saying I do's. Don't worry,

My professional life has enough drama.
I'm not trying for an office role. Well,

the heart wants what the heart wants.

These are fantastic, by the way. Are
they new?

Some of them. I was inspired by
Delaney's work.

Oh, this shoe would be so perfect in
that collection.

It would be a dream to see Delaney
Diaz's name under one of my sketches.

Hmm.

You mean, like...

Looks right to me.

I'll get my chance one day.

Oh, by the way, can I stop by the office
tomorrow morning on the way to the

doctor just to say thank you to Delaney?
Yeah, as long as you don't talk too

much. She hates rambling.

And not before her morning latte.

Um, you ramble, okay? I convert.

Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I
wonder what you are.

Up above the world so high, like a
diamond in the sky.

Lucky girl.

Jealous?

Is everything okay?

Oh, yeah, everything's more than fine.
Yeah, yeah, Claudia can take over. You

have a long drive.

Thank you for everything.

Yeah, you're welcome.

See you tomorrow.

Absolutely.

Oh, don't mind me.

Have a good night.

You too.

You can keep fooling yourself.

And he said, no, my name is Philippe.

Oh, no.

Sorry to interrupt.

Delaney, I have the final designs all
ready for the manufacturer, and Austin

will pick the best one for the press
release.

Oh, that's great.

Nothing digital, please. We don't want a
repeat of the date and I pump.

I have printed hard copies for Austin
and the manufacturer.

Impressive. She really is.

Anyway, I'll let you get back to work.
Thanks again so much for everything.

Ruby loved all of her presents.

A really special night.

I do like to take care of what matters.

A latte machine has arrived.

And speaking of which, Addie, could you
proceed with that?

I care what you take this and I'll meet
you at my desk.

Take care.

Delaney wants you to choose a shoe for
the press release.

She trusts your opinion.

She trusts yours too.

See, I told you you weren't fired.

I'm glad you're still here.

Me too.

So, how is the show going?

Oh, it is a disaster.

My father and I do not agree on
wardrobe.

I just wanted to make sure that fashion
was for everyone. I wanted to make sure

that people felt glamorous and powerful
when they wore Delaney Diaz. Like the

crystal shoe on the subway.

Exactly.

Now I just feel like he's not supporting
me, or Delaney for that matter.

And if this show doesn't sell, it's all
over.

Anyway, everything is ready. All I need
are the shoes.

Well, they should be ready by next week.

Good.

Make sure you guard this book with your
life.

Delaney is paranoid something will go
wrong again.

Sure thing.

Are you coming to the party tonight with
Delaney?

Open fashion week?

Of course.

And Delaney can't wait to go.

Oh. Shocking, right?

Well, miracles do happen.

I'll see you tonight.

Okay.

Hello again.

Oh, Andrea Walker from Franco Chassier.

Buying again?

Want to steal more of our ideas?

I happen to live on this block, and this
is actually my favorite coffee shop.

And for the record, we didn't take your
shoe concept.

We had one in the works, and we just
happened to release it first.

You used my words.

I told Franco about you.

How would you like to come work with us?

Tempting, but no. I work for Delaney.

If all goes to plan, then Delaney will
be under our company.

I'm trying to help you out here.

Secure you a seat on the lifeboat when
her ship inevitably goes down.

Well, when our show goes well, the ship
will keep sailing.

It would take a miracle.

Our door is open.

Think about it.

Okay, get me a glass of peanut, please.

And then we'll slip out the back.

Oh, people want to see you. You have to
linger a little bit.

It's good for the brand.

You sound like Ogden.

Did he send out the press release?

Oh, let me check.

He said he was going to send it out
before the party.

You know what? Never mind. Wine first.

And can you get me a big glass? I need
something I can hide behind.

Yeah.

Glass of red, please.

Delaney, hi.

I saw your press release. I'd love to
get your take on the old design. It

certainly is a departure from the
boring, safe designs you've been putting

lately. Has the fashion bloggers in
quite the uproar?

Well, I didn't design that shoe.

Now, a good reporter would know to check
his facts.

But then again, we're talking about you.

Yeah, the signed sketch and press
release stating you designed the shoe

otherwise.

Here's my headline.

Aging fashion icon is up to her old
tricks against stealing designs and

releasing them under her own name. This
sad story will surely go viral.

Delaney, you need it for a photo right
now? What are you insinuating? Sorry,

Delaney. I'm going to need this back so
I can tweet about my latest scoop, if

you don't mind.

Come on.

Ciao. What are you talking about?

No, it's not okay.

This is a disaster, Addie.

That crap is probably already all over
social media. Hashtag Delaney steals

again. But it isn't true. It doesn't
matter. The first lie wins. Don't you

understand?

How did this even happen?

I swear, when I find out who did it, I
am going to destroy them. Their

their home, their family.

Their family? Yes.

I need to hit them where it hurts the
most.

I'm about to lose everything that
matters to me.

My reputation.

My entire life, Addie.

Everything.

I want you to gather everyone on the
team in the conference room, 7 a .m.

No exceptions.

I could kill them.

Simple question.

Where did this shoe come from?

Who designed it?

It's new to me, but a very stylish shoe.

I wish I could take credit.

Have you asked Austin?

Yep. He says that it was in the book.

He's stopping by the manufacturer today
to see if there was some kind of mix

-up.

What if he put it in there?

Not possible.

An up -and -coming PR guy desperate to
save your brand and make his mark?

Their motto is, all press is good press.

No, there's no way. Austin would never
put me in this position.

Well, if there's a positive, your name
is all over social media.

Yes, it certainly is.

You know, they are comparing this
beautiful shoe to...

Our safe design?

They're talking about the rest of our
line. That's a good thing.

It's not a favorable comparison,
Alexander.

You didn't steal anything, Delaney. I'm
sure this will all get cleared up before

the show. Just give it a little bit more
time.

The story is out!

I would need a time machine.

No, I can't risk another public
humiliation.

Cancel the show.

No, don't do that. You have to keep
fighting.

The fight is over, Addie, and we lost.

If we get any more backlash, our stock
is going to plummet. Now, show sewer may

want to put me in a bargain basement,
but I won't let them purchase us at

dollar.

No.

We're done here.

Go home.

Okay. Get the team together.

Think about anything that could have got
the shoe in that package, okay? We

cannot... Cancel the show.

There you are. Thank you. Take care.

Connor, it's your repair.

Hey, it's me. Hey, Addie. How's work?
You left so early this morning.

Terrible. My sketches got into the final
design and Austin used it for the press

release because he thought they were
Delaney's design.

That's great news.

Oh, no, it's not. Delaney was outed by a
reporter for stealing it. So tell her

it's yours.

How? She'll think I did it on purpose
and she's on a war path.

She threatened my career, our family.

I can't have Dad stop getting taken out
for this. She'll understand. I know her.

You do not know Delaney's wrath.

Thing is, I don't even know how the
sketches got in there.

Maybe do.

What?

No, Claudia, you didn't. I just, I
wanted to help you out. You know, you

talented and people need to see it.

You're welcome.

No, no, this isn't a good thing.

She's going to lose everything.

She canceled the runway show.

It was her last chance at keeping Franco
Chaussure from buying her out.

Wow, I didn't know.

I am so sorry. What can I do? Do you
want me to call Delaney? No, no, no, no.

Absolutely not.

Austin is on his way here now, and I'll
keep you posted, okay?

Okay.

Bye.

Austin Strickland.

You have quite the PR disaster on your
end.

Thanks for the update. I wasn't aware.
You know, when I offered Addie a job, I

didn't expect her to make it easier for
our acquisition.

Franco may promote her before she even
starts.

What are you talking about?

She's not only talented, but ambitious.

Flipping in her own design?

Tell me, were you in on it too?

Because if so, we may have a job offer
for you as well.

Austin.

I have something I have to tell you. Oh,
no need, no need.

Andrew told me everything.

How could you?

What? Flipping in your design like that,
backstabbing Delaney and myself after

all that talk about not being cutthroat,
you are ruthless.

Austin, that's not what happened.

It's a beautiful shoe.

It's honestly too bad that it won't be a
fashion week.

Well, you can bring your designs to the
office. I know that Franco is very

excited to see them. We'll see you then.

You really found your place.

What place?

Awesome. Awesome.

How'd you know I was here?

Your mom always brought you here when
you had a bad day at school.

Claudia told you?

So what happens next?

I know Claudia was just trying to help.

And I'm sure often it told Delaney.

You worked so hard.

I can't believe it's going to end like
this.

And the worst part is, everyone thinks I
did it on purpose.

Like I'm some malicious traitor.

You're not.

And you're not a quitter.

I don't really have many other options.

Yes, you do.

Get back up and you fight.

Never give up.

You know you belong there. Sure, then.

Go into yourself.

No.

It's over.

Show's canceled.

Sure, Theo's buying the company.

Did they buy the company?

Today?

No.

Soon.

The show's been cancelled.

Can it be uncancelled?

Today, maybe?

Well, we do still have the space books.

When you were young, you used to build
these wonderful towers with your mom's

shoes. Remember that?

Yeah.

Claudia loved knocking them over.

Remember what your mother told you?

Just because it fell apart doesn't mean
it can't be rebuilt.

Exactly. You really think I can fix it?

I think you can do anything.

I think I'm a terrible person.

Go show them who you really are.

Please don't take that down.

You got some guts showing up here, huh?

I should call security.

I know what you're thinking, but there
has been a big misunderstanding.

Save it, Addie.

I'm really not interested. I am trying
to save the company, and I think I know

how. What are you, a double agent now?

You're going to bring sure it's your
secret to me?

Yes.

They offered me a job, but I turned it
down.

Although I have questioned myself every
step of the way, and you haven't made it

very easy, I know I belong here. Well,
that is touching.

Is that why you submitted your design
under my name? I didn't. Then how did it

get there, Addie? I have a very loving
family who thought they were helping me

out. Claudia slipped my design into the
book.

She wanted you to see my work.

No one thought that it would escalate
like this.

It was a very big mistake.

But I think something good can come of
this. The show's canceled, Patty.

It's over.

So Siri's already working on the
paperwork for the buyout. I mean, the

is falling.

But we can do the show. We still have
the space.

Except we don't have any shoes.

I had the manufacturer throw them all
out.

Why?

Because they're insignificant.

You know, the hardest part about this is
that people were just...

starting to get excited about me again.

Except it wasn't me at all.

And when they found out the truth, well,
it just confirmed what they already

believe.

Delaney Diaz is the husband.

I always knew a Delaney Diaz shoot could
get you where you needed to go, no

matter the circumstance.

Well, I appreciate your passion, but you
are overlooking one very significant

detail. No shoot. No shoot.

But you do.

You have these.

These are shoes you can conquer the
world in. This is what the people want.

Well, that may well be, but no, no.

You're wrong. The public won't show up
for me. Not anymore.

Thanks to Jacob.

You are tough, but you are smart and
generous.

We can't give up now.

Don't lose yourself.

You'll win over the public. I know it.

How do you propose I do that? You show
them who you really are.

Except the show is in less than 48
hours, and what am I going to do? I

make the shoes myself.

Nope.

But I know someone who can.

Wow, so you repair all kinds of shoes
here.

Oh, yes.

We don't discriminate.

Except... Franco, so sir.

Cheaply made, soul's thinnest paper.

Okay. We have 48 hours to make these
shoes, but luckily we have all the

materials and tools to get this done.

Thank you all so much. I can't tell you
what it means to me that you're doing

this. We really appreciated Ruby's gift.
And you taking our Addie under your

wing.

She's the one flying now.

Let's get to work.

We got this.

We won't go down without a fight. Come
and see your vision walk the runway.

Tia, please accept this as an apology.

Addie.

And of course, the biggest story in
fashion is tonight's highly anticipated

comeback show by Delaney Diaz.

Already, it's generated a lot of buzz.

having initially been cancelled after
the revelation of some still unproven

allegations.

The show is now just moments away,
signifying that the normally safe

Diaz is ready to face any controversy
head -on. Still, people are asking, does

she have it in her to win over the
fashion world once again?

Oh, not quite yet. I want to add one
more.

Oh, we don't have an extra model.

That's okay, because I want you to walk.

Me?

So far, we've managed to avoid total
disaster. Let's not hit the iceberg

No, I really think that this might be
the right way to clear up any old

headlines. And also, to give credit
where credit is due.

I thought you threw these all away.

What are you kidding?

Even in a pit of rage, I know better
than to throw away a great shoe.

That's a great shoe.

Oh, honey, don't cry.

I'm not.

The compliments from you are few and far
between, and I appreciate them.

Well, good.

Wear them with pride.

You're stepping out into a whole new
world now, and I think after tonight,

everything is going to change.

Thank you.

What is it?

Austin's not here.

Don't take it personally.

He just had to do what was best for his
career.

Now, why don't you put those puppies on,
and we're going to go out there and do

what's best for our careers.

Okay. All right.

They're loving it.

Get ready to be adored.

You too.

You're coming with me.

So this is the runway.

We have a threat like we are conquering
the world.

Lock the fire.

I had to break in these new shoes.

Great show.

Well, it's not over yet.

Please. I have a special surprise for
you gentlemen, a special treat for you.

Coming soon, a new men's line designed
by our newest designer at Delaney Diaz,

Miss Addie Connors.

Thank you.

Are you serious? Yes. What about the
buyout?

What buyout? There's no way show series
is going to be able to afford us now.

Look at all these orders.

The show is not even over yet.

I need to make a comeback.

You're not looking for new
representation by any chance, because I

know an up -and -coming firm.

Austin Lilly PR.

We're taking on your clients.

Lilly? Yeah, it's my mom's name.

You really inspired me to go after what
I believe in, so thank you.

Oh, honey, I would be so honored to be
your first client.

And you can use the office next door to
my newest designer's office. At least

until you're up and running.

I get my own office?

What? Of course you do.

You're my newest designer.

What do you say, neighbor?

I'd say I'm on condition.

What's that?

I get to wear your newest men's designs
for a first date?

I think we can arrange that.

All right.

Shall we? Yes.
