KIMORA: So many things have happened

as we have progressed down the Fab Lane.

Ming and Aoki ran the 25-year

anniversary Baby Phat shoot.

I want them to work together like a team.

- You have to help me. - I don’t want to help you.

No, you have to help.

The tracksuits will be a trio, and then we can shoot singles.

Girls, okay, you guys are in charge.

MING: We’re ready.

- AOKI: You did a very good job. - Thank you.

I just felt so proud.

One, two, whoo!

Did I miss anything? That’s kind of it in a nutshell.

We are Back in the Fab Lane.

♪ Bad girl ♪

["Wake Up" by Paul Thorne & Dexx! Turner]

♪ Wake up ♪

I’m in a self-driving car for the first time.

And I’m, like, a little creeped.

Oh my goodness, I’m terrified.

So I can’t drive, and I’m scared to get a drive--

Not scared, I’m just kind of busy.

So I thought I’d try the Waymo.

Woah!

Just me, myself, and a car that’s moving.

That I’m not driving.

Casper the friendly ghost,

the chauffeur, yes.

SYNTHETIC VOICE: Don’t forget your phone, keys, or wallet.

There are more drop-off options in the app.

Well, self-driving cars.

This was cool. I like this. We’re parked.

-[car chimes] -Hell yeah.

SYNTHETIC VOICE: You’re here. Please make sure

it’s clear before exiting.

Okay, thank you Waymo. You’re so cutie patootie.

Do you respond?

Okay.

[upbeat music playing]

- Hi, pretty. - Hey.

Me and Scarlett have been friends for 16 years.

We met in the fourth grade at a French school.

We really matched each other’s energy.

She goes on almost all of our family vacations.

She’s allowed in my mom’s room.

That’s a big one.

She’s my bestest friend.

Hi there, ladies, you guys want to get some drinks started?

I kind of just want a matcha.

Okay, let’s get matchas. Matcha mommy.

SERVER: I’ll send these in. I’ll come back for you.

- I wore these sneakers today. - So we’re matching?

[bagpipe music]

[chuckling] Oh, my gosh.

- Should I go say hi? - No.

Just be like, I love your movie.

It doesn’t matter. It’s not Paul Mescal.

Paul Mescal is hot. He’s hot. That, I want that.

SCARLETT: So what are we doing after this?

I’m going to my gynecologist’s office to talk about my PCOS.

- Oh, really? - Yes.

I was diagnosed with PCOS,

which is polycystic ovarian syndrome,

five years ago when I was, like, 20.

It’s a hormonal disorder, and it causes imbalance.

I used to have extremely horrible, painful cycles.

And I had really bad fluctuating weight.

And it can lead to infertility.

Is it like just a checkup or is it like,

did she see something?

We’re supposed to be talking about freezing my eggs.

- Really? - Yeah.

- This soon? - I’m 25 years old.

I’m not having any kids right now.

But you only have a certain amount of eggs.

Yeah, you were born with a certain amount of eggs.

My egg count was like, she was like, "It’s not great

"for someone your age because of your PCOS."

- You should definitely do it. - It would be helpful.

To, like, preserve the really healthy ones.

So many women don’t know until it’s too late

that they can’t have kids.

So is this actually better that you’re being proactive.

I don’t even know how many eggs I have.

Women, we never think about what will happen in the future,

because we’re usually living in the now.

But this is one of those things where it’s really important

to know what’s going on with your body.

Well, this is really serious. Are you-- are you scared?

I’m trying not to make it serious in my head.

Except for, I’m really scared.

It will affect things that I want to do later.

I don’t want to have babies right now,

but I want to have options.

But I have to say, you’re going to have the cutest babies.

- I’m done. Let’s close out. - [Scarlett chuckling]

SCARLETT: I’m so excited.

-Bitch! -[both laughing]

♪

- [Christopher] Hi, Kimora. - Hi.

I think you’re supposed to say...

- Hey, hey. - Hey, hey.

- Ready to make your drink? - Okay.

Since it is Asian American

and Pacific Islander Heritage Month,

Chris, who owns Hey Hey Smoothie,

approached me to make my own custom drink.

She was a single mom. I am an only child. CHRISTOP

I wasn’t so close to my dad at all.

So my mom was, like, my everything.

She was super supportive, hardworking.

Sacrificed her whole life for me.

My drive and what motivates me.

That’s where it comes from, yeah.

- Gonna do multiple-- - What’s that?

CHRISTOPHER: It’s just a glass mincer.

[Kimora screams] Now I’m a freak.

CHRISTOPHER: First things first, you want to ice this.

KIMORA: Okay. It’s like I work here.

We have our fruit syrups. Our lychee right here.

- So I pour this in here? - Yeah, so shake it away from...

Okay, I don’t wanna muss my hair up.

[Kimora screaming]

- That’s good. Good job. - That is a lot.

And then we’ll just taste it.

If you want it more carbonated, we can do that as well.

No, I think it might need a little more sweet.

-I think I’m addicted to sugar. -[phone ringing]

- Want me to get that for you? - Yeah, hey, hey.

Oh. Hey, hey, hey.

Hi. Can I help you? My name is Kimora.

We close at 7:00, but if you come a little earlier,

I’ll let you taste my lychee drink.

You can tell your girlfriend that.

You sure can come right now.

- Did you set this up? - No, I didn’t.

Yeah, you can come right now. I’ll make you a drink.

CHRISTOPHER: Kimora, let’s practice.

Okay, we should call Aoki. Aoki should come in for this.

- Aoki. - AOKI: Hi, Mom.

I’m at a tea house called Hey Hey,

and I’m making a drink.

I want to know if you can come by and taste my creation.

- I’ll stop over. - Okay, great.

I’m a little nervous.

- KIMORA: Coming up... - I want to speak to you about

what you think is best.

This is the time to freeze your eggs.

If you were my daughter, I would say it’s non-negotiable.

[upbeat music playing]

KIMORA: So I pour this in here.

- But shake it away from-- - [Kimora shrieks]

- Oh, hi, honey. - CHRISTOPHER: Hello.

Welcome, you’re my first customer.

- How did you get back here? - I work here.

- Oh. - She’s our newest team member.

Do you regret allowing that at this point?

- I’m making a drink. - She’s doing pretty well.

AOKI: My mom, she can convince anyone

to let her behind their counter.

We were at Red Lobster, and she almost got in the back

and made key lime pie, because she wanted key lime pie.

Oh, we love Red Lobster.

We’re the reason that they almost went bankrupt

from that all-you-can-eat lunch special.

That’s us. That’s why.

She’s going to be the pro at making her own drink.

KIMORA: Just tell me what you think of this

before I make another one.

Can we try Oh, you have a customer.

Hey, hey!

Hold on, I’m new here. Just bear with me.

Wait, do you like lychee?

-Yeah. -I thought about a...

I made a drink called Kimora Lee-chee.

MAN: I do love lychee and I do love Kimora, so I guess.

- There you go. - KIMORA: It’s iced tea.

- Kimora Lee-chee. - MAN: Kimora Lee-chee.

It means so much to me, making this Kimora Lee-chee,

because I try to honor my family heritage.

Like, my kids, all of their name

has a Lee as a part of the first name.

Ming Lee, Aoki Lee, Kenzo Lee, Gary Lee, Wolfe Lee.

And it was my mom’s Korean last name,

which became part of my first name.

This is gonna take off the nail.

But don’t worry, it won’t be in your drink.

This is a lot for me.

I don’t even know if that’s right.

This thing is tricky.

Don’t put lids, because it’s not pretty.

- It’s her first day. - I’m sorry.

I just started working here. Here you go.

- Have a good day. I quit. - [all laughing]

[upbeat music playing]

Thank you.

The doctor will be with you shortly.

- Okay, thank you so much. - You’re welcome.

Nobody ever likes to go to the gynecologist.

- It’s not fun. - How are you?

But Dr. Aliabadi is a really good doctor.

She’s really easy to talk to.

She’s one of the best and most sought after OBGYNs

in the country.

- Oh, my God, you look so good. - Thank you.

Very different from a few years ago,

when you were in so much pain when I first met you.

- Oh, I know. - So how are you feeling?

I have almost no pain now.

I feel like I have a regular amount of pain.

Before it was 10 out of 10 every period,

and now it’s like a two or a three.

- Do you remember our PCOS talk? - Yeah, I do.

I feel like you were like, it’s polycystic ovarian syndrome.

So when I met you, luckily you were so young,

and I think we caught you in time.

And during the surgery, we put a progesterone IUD in you

to suppress the symptoms of it.

It’s really, really a hard thing

when your hormones are not balanced.

Because it was affecting me mentally,

it was affecting me physically.

And it’s something that affects a lot of women

that no one really talks about.

And it’s one of the top causes of infertility.

So PCOS and endometriosis

starts going down and the egg count goes down.

I just want to freeze these eggs

in case you show up to my office at 38

and you just met your partner.

I don’t want to worry about egg quality,

but 10 years from now, you’re going to thank me.

Okay.

Freezing my eggs is definitely not something

I want to think about in this moment.

Because it’s planning for a future

that I’m not necessarily sure

if I even want or I’m ready to have.

If I freeze my eggs, when should I freeze my eggs?

Sometime this year, do you think?

If you were my daughter, you would be

in a fertility clinic right now.

It’s just an insurance policy.

- Okay. - It’s expensive.

The problem with egg freezing is I wish it was covered.

I always say when patients are young

and they have good healthy eggs,

- They don’t have the money. - ...they don’t have the money.

But if you have the privilege of doing it,

- then I think you should do it. - Okay.

Freezing my eggs is something that I want to go back to my mom

and talk about.

Not only is it taxing on the body,

but it is expensive.

So I’m a little nervous about telling my mom.

If you were my daughter, I would say it’s non-negotiable.

I’m looking for a British Asian-Wasian man

on this red carpet.

Yes, I just realized that.

Maybe I should switch to a more lower neckline.

[both laughing]

[lively music playing]

It does a funny little buckle thing.

We have been invited to the Gold Gala tonight,

which celebrates Asian excellence.

It’s kind of like the Oscars for the Asian community.

This is a lot of bosom.

What is this? Why are they doing this?

Events like this are important to me,

because family lineage and heritage

are such a big part of my life.

And for me, it’s so exciting

to be able to be with both of my girls.

MING: I think I’m in here. I hope I’m in here.

This is the shoot that we did

when I was literally passing away.

MELISSA: After Coachella?

Girl, I’m not running my life with no drunkard child.

- Let’s go. - I’m coming out right now.

- Shut-- - MELISSA: She’s in IV.

[Ming groans]

Are you giving a People magazine post?

I’m right here. I found it.

- Here I am. - So pretty. Oh, Ming.

SANKARA: We’ll do three on each side.

- Amazing. - SANKARA: It’s so fun.

I feel like you are starting to look a lot like your mom.

[gasps] Yes, good. [whispering]

KIMORA: Okay, which earring? Look.

[Kimora chuckles]

That one’s a little more Asian.

I feel very connected to my Asian heritage.

The culture, the food, the languages is a large part

of who I am and who I was growing up.

Yeah, this is like Gold Gala.

Isn’t it gold? And isn’t it Asian influence?

I mean, not that I’m not influenced enough.

Which one looks like the Asian goddess of love and prosperity?

You do.

I feel like there’s a lot of Korean and Japanese

cultural influence in my house growing up.

Because it comes from my mom, and my grandma who lives nearby.

Or used to, now she lives in Mexico and she loves it.

And it’s amazing. Live where you want to live.

See, I got it from my grandma.

Come on, we have to hit the red carpet.

♪

Shout out to Asians everywhere.

- It’s not on. - KIMORA: Hello?

MING: I’m looking for a husband on this red carpet.

It’s like Crazy Rich Asian vibes.

Ming likes a French Wasian. Ming likes a what else?

- An Australian Asian. - I’ve never had one of those.

Excuse me, we will not talk here on these three GoPros

about territories of the world and what we have or haven’t had.

We are not going to do that, girls.

- What is even an Wasian? - A white Asian.

So what if you’re a white, Black, and Asian?

Like Wolfe. You’re a "Wobblerasian."

A "Wablasian"?

Just telling you to keep an eye out.

♪

Okay. Ready?

AOKI: Wait, Mom, I need help.

KIMORA: The Gold Gala is a big deal.

It’s a really big event. It draws a lot of big names.

Like Megan Thee Stallion, Chrissy Teigen,

Sandra Oh, Jon Chu, and the Lee bunch.

Don’t tilt your head too far.

Step up a little touch, Aoki. Step forward.

Not too much.

I’m really short. I’m really short.

She said, mmm.

It’s so important for me to be able to be

with both of my girls.

On the [indistinct] on the red carpet.

What’s fun about getting to work together as a family?

KIMORA: To get it together and all get dressed

and take our pictures and go down the carpet.

It’s always fun.

Last time we walked the red carpet together

probably was when we were a lot younger.

KIMORA: I remember we would be like matching outfits,

matching little coats.

Not like triplets, but like coordinated.

And they were so, so cute.

And then as they started to grow older, then I stopped.

And we’re all together. Aoki’s home.

We’re all together. I’m very excited about that.

It’s hard to get everybody together.

And the older they get and they have responsibilities and jobs.

What makes you smile?

My mom.

I’m just very grateful that my kids love me so much.

I think that’s great because sometimes

you don’t have your kids like that.

And I think that’s because of how I was raised by my mom.

Coming up...

If I want to have a kid, ten years is probably

the closest that you have to me wanting to even try that.

- Ten years? - Yeah.

I don’t want to wait that long.

♪ All ♪ No, it’s never enough ♪

♪ [indistinct lyrics] ♪

I want to get to [indistinct] of your tooth.

What is that? It’s disgusting.

- It’s gone. - I’m sick.

I feel sick.

- Everybody can’t feel sick. - I feel sick.

I’m sick and tired of all of you.

I’m sick and tired for real.

I just wanted to talk to you because I went to the doctor.

Okay, what did she say?

Thais Aliabadi she said the IUD that I got really helped.

That’s good.

But she wants to withdraw eggs.

- Oh, my God. Are you serious? - Yeah.

It’s to have just in case my eggs

are not viable because of my PCOS.

She wants to take them out now.

That’s crazy.

She said it’s very costly.

- But I don’t have any money. - What?

- So wait, do I have to pay? - Yeah.

Wait, is that covered by insurance?

No.

I think probably of all my kids,

Ming is the most expensive on my credit card.

There’s been some Yves Saint Laurent

items I’ve seen.

They’re a little pricey.

I’ve seen accessories that rhyme with twerking.

We’re going to have a baby.

No problem. Give me those eggs, girl.

I will take the eggs myself, I’ll harvest them myself

and I’ll make a million grandbabies, it’s okay.

With whom? And absolutely not.

If I want to have a kid, ten years is probably

the closest that you have to me wanting to even try that.

- Ten years? - Yeah.

Ten years from now, I’ll be...

You’ll be the actual age of a grandma.

I don’t want to wait that long.

Well, I’m not ready to have a kid right now,

which we know because I am a kid.

Now that I’ve spoken to her about it and it’s

in the forefront of her mind, my mom will bug me

about having babies for the rest of my life.

But I think I’m very lucky to have a mom

that is as supportive as she is.

It’s always better to have a mom

that’s more involved than not caring.

Okay, so we’re going to have a baby.

No, we’re not having a baby.

I’ll just take all the eggs.

I’m giving you the eggs, but you can’t use them right now.

- Okay. - Okay.

I feel conflicted that my baby is having to go through pain

or that she’s having any trouble at all.

But Ming has impressed me with her strength,

dealing with all of this.

She’s really brave.

Very brave.

- I’m not having a kid. - Wow.

Okay, we’re having a baby. This is exciting.

Because I should be a young grandma.

- MING: I have to go. - KIMORA: Take it easy.

You should cleanse your system

to prepare for my grandchildren’s arrival.

- MING: Oh, my God. - [Kimora exclaims]

On the next Kimora Back in the Fab Lane...

- Do you hitchhike? - No, but like...

Have you ever hitchhooked?

I know Aoki is an adult,

but adulting is not her specialty.
