-Hey. -Hey!

What you got?

Oh, Tatum's new spring collection.

I'm looking it over before our meeting today.

Right. Right.

Uh, anything catching your eye?

Everything. She's created some really beautiful pieces.

How'd the game go with Ted and Carlton?

It was cool. Yeah, we won.

That's it?

You are usually much more cocky about your youthful advantage.

It's just basketball.

You okay, Andre?

I'm fine.

-Phone. -Uh-uh.

We don't do that.

-What's wrong? -(sighs)

Uncle Ted and I had a talk earlier

about my past

and how life was for me after my parents died.

I don't know. I guess it's put me in a mood.

That's not normal postgame talk.

What do you think brought that on?

I've been reflecting a lot lately.

Yeah. On my parents.

Um, life pre-you.

And it's been heavy on my mind.

The man I became after their accident...

...and the man you see right now,

they-they couldn't be further apart.

The lies you tell.

(sighs)

That face is gorgeous as ever.

You know I wouldn't judge you for your past, right, Andre?

When I was...

running around different countries

and partying with whoever would give me a spark,

I did some things that I was not proud of.

Haven't we all?

-(sighs) -But I know all that

-and I'm here, aren't I? -(door closes)

-Dani, you don't know everything, okay? I... -CHELSEA: Mom,

-you were right. -Of course I was.

-(chuckles) -About what?

Hayley.

Last I heard, you were island-bound.

And yet here you are in front of me.

What happened, Mrs. Hamilton?

We hit a little bump in the road.

With the way things have been going,

that road is not paved at all.

Bill's worried about traveling

when he still doesn't have the answers for his health issues.

And you changed his mind.

This cannot be happening.

Bill has to take his last breath in the Caribbean,

-not Fairmont Crest. -Don't you think I know that?

Then what are you doing to get him on the damn plane?

You need to figure something out.

Have I failed us before?

This wasn't supposed to be a whole operation.

You know what, you are acting like a loser, Randy.

Have a little faith.

Okay? I got Bill.

Yeah.

And so does fifty-leven other people

who actually care about him.

That couldn't have gone any better.

Judge Collier approved my motion

to have the case against Ms. Strauss dismissed.

That'll be a huge relief for her and her family.

Yeah, indeed.

And now that this afternoon's hearing has been pushed,

I'm gonna head out and take a breather.

Uh, actually, I was hoping we could talk.

Okay.

Well, don't tell me

some other firm is trying to steal you away from me.

(chuckles softly) This isn't about work.

I was wondering,

is everything okay with you and Hayley?

Excuse me?

It's just... (sighs)

I noticed she hasn't been around as much and...

-I miss our catch-up sessions. -Ah.

Your gossip sessions, you mean.

Yeah, Hayley was only holding on to her paralegal job

to, I don't know, maintain some sense of independence.

But she's feeling a lot more confident

in who she is these days.

It's a good thing.

What is it, Caroline?

I ran into Chelsea last night.

She told me she was concerned

Hayley wasn't being attentive enough to you.

Huh.

Well, Chelsea shouldn't have done that.

I apologize on her behalf.

Now, if you'll excuse me...

Bill, I...

I just wonder if she has a point.

You've been an amazing boss and mentor to me.

I just want to return the favor.

Oh, by making my marriage your business?

(sighs)

I've always had your back and kept your confidences.

You know that.

Yeah, I do.

So tell me,

do you ever wonder if Hayley is as...

devoted as she should be?

Do you think I'm blind to what's happening in my life?

Hmm?

I'm Bill Hamilton.

I'm nobody's fool.

? ?

(sighs)

(line rings)

Hi. What are you up to?

Just grabbing a bite. You?

I wanted to see when you'd be free again

so that we can finish our conversation.

Without Leslie interrupting this time.

How about now?

Orphey Gene's.

Sure.

Thank you so much for meeting me.

It's not like I had a choice.

It's important.

What's it gonna take for you to understand that I'm busy

and I can't just drop everything

when you have a so-called emergency?

What is it now?

Your daughter.

She's drowning and she needs you to throw her a raft.

Is that emergency enough for you?

-What do you know? -So I started thinking

about Dad's circle and who else could have possibly noticed

something's off with Hayley.

I mean, we can't be the only ones with suspicions.

Suspicions like what?

That Bill's half-pint ho of a wife is stepping out on him.

(chuckles, mutters)

She's definitely given me the eye before.

Say what? Come again?

Can we please get back to the matter at hand?

I went to Caroline.

Caroline's a vault.

Well, about Dad, yes, but I kept things low-key.

I asked how things were going

-since she sees Hayley on the regular. -And she spilled?

Well, she said Hayley has basically ghosted her.

Huh. But wasn't Caroline Hayley's maid of honor?

Undoubtedly done for Bill.

To make sure his precious bride didn't get embarrassed.

Well, regardless, they became actual friends, Mom.

And now Caroline is saying

that she hardly sees Hayley in the office.

So if Hayley isn't hanging out with Caroline

and-and isn't present with Dad,

then she's got to be entertaining another man

on the side.

What exactly did Caroline say?

She sort of shut down

-when I pressed the issue. -ANDRE: Hmm.

So maybe she doesn't know anything.

Or she's choosing not to talk.

I used to think the world of Caroline.

Always smiling in my face, complimenting me.

Then, as soon as I turned my back,

she'd be running off to Bill

to hand him the shovel to cover his dirt.

So we can't trust her?

I would think twice.

Caroline is loyal to her own advancement,

which means she's staying loyal to your father.

Do you think Hayley's cheating on you?

Of course not.

But I am obviously aware of our age difference

and the health issues I've been having.

You think it's more than she bargained for?

Oh, uh, yeah, it's possible.

You know, Hayley's young. She's vibrant.

She wants to go out, take vacations, be spontaneous.

And instead she's been spending half her time worried about me

and the other half completely on her own.

You know, things just-

they're not exactly the same as when we first got married.

I mean, I'm no expert,

but isn't that how it goes?

You, you settle into the day-to-day,

and the excitement and passion stabilizes.

Not all the time.

You know, especially when one partner is cooling the flame.

You know, I'd understand if Hayley's getting a little,

I don't know, restless.

Are you even still happy with Hayley?

I know you're coming from a good place

and that we've developed a more familial relationship, but...

...you need to stay out of my marriage.

I didn't mean to overstep.

I won't have this conversation again.

Are we clear?

Perfectly.

You need to think of every possible route this can take

and have a plan in place.

And you need to relax.

I will keep working Bill and get him to St. Bart's, okay? Damn.

How?

What if he knows your game now?

He doesn't.

Like Sid didn't?

You did not say that name.

Yeah, I did.

Because you've got tunnel vision when it comes to Bill.

-Just like with S... -Don't go there.

We already there, cuz.

If it wasn't for Lynette calling me that night-

But she did, okay?

And we are here to not tell the tale.

So move on.

You got arrogant,

you got distracted,

and you thought Sid wasn't paying attention.

Cuz, that man...

...damn near killed you.

Which is why we only go after men who have things to lose now.

Bill is nothing like Sid.

For all his accolades and showboating,

that man is simply a guy

whose brain doesn't make decisions for him

when I'm around.

It's time to pivot.

Because Bill is turning out to be a tougher case.

So you need to be ready

in case he doesn't go along like he usually does.

You just make sure you have things covered on your end.

I'm getting my husband on that plane.

I don't think we've been here together since our dessert date.

Oh. Not our usual go-to spot,

but it's perfect for today.

Why is that?

An unusual place

equals an unusual date.

-Hi, Dad. -BILL: Can you meet me at the club?

Um, yeah.

What's going on?

See you soon.

He wants me to meet him at the club.

Ooh, that Caroline works fast.

You think she snitched?

I think she ran directly to Bill

and told him exactly what Chelsea said.

Maybe this is good, though.

Maybe Caroline got through to him

and he wants to thank me.

My sweet darling girl,

Caroline 100% threw you under the bus.

(stammers) Don't let her get to you, Chelsea.

I'm sure, whatever it is, you'll be fine.

Well, thank you for the vote of confidence, Andre.

-I can handle this. -Mm-hmm.

Yes, you can.

And you let me know if you need me.

-Uh-huh. -(laughing)

-I love you. -Love you.

Sorry for the interruption.

I guess we can't escape the drama around here.

(chuckles softly)

So what were you gonna tell me earlier?

Yeah. Ah. Don't you have to meet Tatum?

Oh. Crap.

I do.

Ooh. Uh...

(sucks air through teeth)

It's okay. You can go.

I don't want you to be late.

Listen to me, Andre.

I want you to know that I love you

and that I would never hold your past against you.

I accept you,

all of you,

as you are.

That's a relief.

What's going on with Eva?

It's that damn surgical scar.

Like...

she can't see anything past it.

My beautiful, loyal, hardworking baby girl.

I mean, you-

we have to do something.

I'm sorry to hear that, but unfortunately

this reaction happens after surgery.

It's adjusting to your new normal

inside and out. It takes time.

What good is it having a-a surgeon as a father-

a plastic surgeon, at that-

if not for bypassing time?

I mean, come on.

You can help make her feel better, Ted.

Dana, I can't.

You can't or you won't?

Because one of those seems more unfeeling than the other.

I can't for several reasons

but primarily because Eva doesn't need fixing.

She's a walking miracle who just underwent a major surgery.

Her mind just needs to catch up.

We are all aware of what she survived.

But all she can focus on is that horrific scar

that makes her feel like a monster.

You can change that.

I'm sorry.

I truly am, but you're wrong.

I can't.

RANDY: Once you hit the island,

things are going to move fast.

So what's step one?

We'll get settled in with some welcome drinks.

I'll make something tropical and fruity

and add a mega dose of toxin to his,

more than I've been doing here.

And then?

I will distract him however I need to until he keels over.

Once he takes his last breath,

that's when I'll call your guy on the island.

And he can fast-track the cremation, right?

Without an autopsy and get you a death certificate.

-Mm. -But you'll need to make sure he's paid first.

And once Bill is gone,

what will you tell the family?

We were enjoying our vacation,

and out of nowhere his heart stopped.

I mean, they'll have questions, sure,

but they still won't be able to prove a thing.

Without a body, there's no crime to investigate.

Yep. And I'll be way too devastated to come back here.

-(chuckles) -You know, I'll just have to

fill my days with leisure

and a $10 million payout.

Five.

-$5 million payout. -Right.

-Right. -Right.

Soon as he's cold,

the cash won't sit stateside.

I'll move the funds through offshore entities.

Your cut will come through that structure.

Clean and quiet.

You know, there's also our joint accounts, though,

-and the deed to our place here. -Hey, hey.

Don't blow this by getting greedy, okay?

You will have more than enough.

Right.

You are right.

Yeah, a drawn-out battle over Bill's assets

will only make, uh, dumb-as-dirt Dani

and her dense daughters look at me sideways.

So, you know what, I just got to get him there,

get it done, and get on with my life.

Sounds good?

Sounds perfect.

Hey, Dad. How are you feeling?

Mm. Not too great.

Knowing that you've been voicing your concerns about Hayley

to Caroline.

-I can explain. -I expect you to.

Because we're gonna have some words

about the line you crossed.

Let's have a seat.

Can we clear the air?

I know you were upset when you found out

that Kial stayed the night.

That is your house, Nicole.

You can extend an invitation to whomever whenever.

You do not owe me an explanation.

Come on, Carlton.

This only works if we are honest with each other.

Okay.

Well, the interesting thing is that...

not too long after Leslie dropped that information

about you and Kial,

I ran into your grandson.

Tyrell? What does he have to do with this?

Well, he came looking for some relationship advice,

and coincidentally what I had to offer him...

...gave me some clarity about you.

And us.

I'm listening.

I've always admired and respected you, Nicole.

And I've always wanted to be with you.

So when the opportunity presented itself...

...I was willing to accept whatever terms you set.

As long as it gave me you.

But?

But this arrangement isn't working for me anymore.

I don't want to think about you with another man,

especially if that man is Kial

and we have to see each other and work together.

It's all starting to feel a little familiar.

Like when you worked with Ted.

Exactly like that.

It's starting to look like a pattern that...

...I'm just not comfortable with.

So if you want to continue seeing each other...

...and exploring what this could be,

I think it's time that you put me first.

-(phone rings) -Oh.

Hayley. Hi.

Uh, are you trying to reach Bill?

He left to meet Chelsea.

Hmm. No, I'm actually calling for you.

Really?

I was just, uh, telling Bill earlier how I miss seeing

your gorgeous face around here.

Aw, thank you.

But get used to it

because we are going to St. Bart's for the week.

I need you to clear his schedule.

Uh... that's great.

But he didn't mention it to me.

Oh, I wonder why.

We are very excited about this trip.

Should Bill be traveling right now given his medical condition?

Is that wise?

Caroline, clear his damn schedule.

(sighs) I'm so sorry, girl.

As you can hear, I desperately need a vacation.

Can you please clear his schedule

so I can help him and myself

escape from this mountain of stress we've been under?

We both really need to get away.

Yeah.

I will. Right away.

Dad, I really don't see the issue.

You never cared about me talking to Caroline before.

Well, you weren't maliciously going behind my back before.

I didn't have reason to.

Okay, listen, sweetheart,

it is not appropriate for you to take personal matters

to my assistant.

If you have a problem, you need to come directly to me.

I have.

We all have.

On several occasions.

But it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Well, then that should let you know exactly how I feel.

I-I don't get you guys.

Why can't you all respect my stance?

Dad, it's not that we aren't respecting you.

I just don't think you're hearing us.

We have a unique vantage point that you don't.

Oh, yeah? Oh, enlighten me, then.

What am I missing?

Hayley is playing you.

She is not the person you think she is.

DANI: Hiya.

Ms. Dupree, what can I do for you?

You're already doing it, honey.

(chuckles) Um, sorry?

Just know I'm rooting for you.

Shoot, if I took a poll,

I bet half the town is rooting for you.

You have to forgive me.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

(chuckles) Right, right.

Listening ears.

You don't have to play coy with me.

I know what you and Hayley are up to.

(chuckles)

I see I caught you off guard, Sammy.

Or is it Randy?

-Which one is it exactly? -(stammering)

-I, uh... -It doesn't matter.

Rest assured,

I have no judgment.

I am all for y'all scratching that itch.

Wait, y-you think me and Mrs. Hamilton are...

(laughing)

I have no idea where you got that from.

(chuckles)

You think I'm opposed?

I'm not.

Look at the smile on my face.

Listen to the joy in my voice.

Nothing would make me happier than you and Mrs. Shamilton

riding off into the sunset and living happily ever after.

(sucks air through teeth)

Ooh. That's my lunch date.

You'll have to excuse me.

But, listen, you keep having your fun, okay?

Wear her all the way out.

(Dani chuckles)

(scoffs)

I think she's having an affair.

(chuckles)

Hayley? Cheating on me?

I've seen her out with that guy Sammy.

And Mom has, too.

I can tell there's something going on.

Are you talking about the same guy that helped Hayley

in her darkest moment? The same guy I met?

Come on, Chelsea. Stop. (scoffs)

That's reckless and stupid.

That's exactly how she was with you.

And you obviously didn't think you would get caught.

Careful.

(sighs) Just think about it, Dad.

Hayley has a pattern of wanting attention from men.

She's flirted with Andre, and Gran even clocked a moment

between her and Jack Abbott's son after the tornado.

Hayley is an attractive woman.

Flirting is harmless.

Oh, my God. Will you open your freaking eyes?

Chelsea, I love you, baby,

but Hayley is my wife,

and this is not your business or Caroline's or anyone else's.

You understand? I don't need your help.

-But, Dad... -I will talk to you later, sweetheart.

(sighs)

I can't believe that you would turn your back on your daughter,

especially when she needs you the most.

I am not.

(scoffs) God, shame on me for expecting better.

Not like you haven't done it before.

You know damn well I never knew about Eva.

And now that I do, I would never turn my back on her.

It is neither appropriate nor wise

for me to operate on my own daughter.

Inappropriate but not illegal?

It is also entirely too early after the surgery

for Eva to go under the knife again.

-It is neither smart nor wise. -(protests)

It is a bad idea, Dana.

What options do we have?

None that we can even consider

until the incision is fully healed.

We can't just wave some magic wand

and expect the scar to be erased.

So what am I supposed to do,

just sit back and watch her suffer emotionally?

I worked damn hard

to establish a relationship with Eva.

To let her know that she could trust me.

I will not ruin it by lying to her,

nor will I promise her a solution that'll make her

even more disappointed than she already is now.

You'd try harder if you'd seen her, Ted.

She says she's scared.

She doesn't even feel like herself anymore.

Like she's maimed.

This is why emotional support

is more important than plastic surgery.

Yes, she's scarred.

But without the transplant that caused it,

she would've died.

I was planning this ski trip for us,

you know, with this-this new lease on life,

because I wanted to show my baby girl the world.

(chuckles softly)

But she doesn't feel comfortable in her own skin, Ted.

It's like she's, she's losing confidence.

And this is not some superficial response.

I really hate the impact this is having on her.

Does that mean that...

that you'll do the surgery?

No, it doesn't.

And you call yourself a good father.

You are a disgrace.

You don't get to say what you want and storm off.

We're not done here. Sit down.

Sit yo...

Sit down.

It has been far too long since we've connected in person.

I agree.

Video just doesn't do your face justice.

-Oh. (laughs) -(chuckles)

Have you had a chance to look at the spring collection?

I have studied every detail of this collection.

I cannot wait to wear it.

-So you like the line? -Absolutely.

-I love it. -Mm. (chuckles)

I appreciate that.

But I didn't collab with Dani Dupree

for her dazzling beauty alone.

You know this business.

What do you really think?

Oh, I-I've been the model

and I have been the model's manager,

but I have never been the designer.

I don't feel comfortable giving critiques.

Permission granted.

I value insight and constructive feedback from my audience.

Sometimes I even take it.

-(laughs) -(chuckles)

So, really, if you have any thoughts

on how to make the collection stronger,

I'm all ears.

Mom sent you here to check on me?

Ha ha. (chuckles)

No, contrary to what people may think,

Dani and I are not tuned into the Bill Hamilton station 24-7.

I left my watch in the locker room.

But it looks like the conversation didn't go too well.

He wouldn't even let me explain.

That man will go to the end of the earth to defend Hayley,

when it's clear she's up to no good.

Okay, this might sound a little strange coming from me,

but have you ever looked at it from his perspective?

Bill's a defense attorney.

Making excuses for people is his M.O.

And I know we don't like it, but Hayley is his wife.

Which is what he said when he basically told me

to mind my business and stay out of it.

Mm. And are you?

It's just so frustrating that he wouldn't even hear me out.

Like it's so impossible to believe

that maybe, just maybe, I'm right.

Bill is a man with an ego.

He's not gonna admit that.

I know I wouldn't.

(phone buzzing)

(door closes)

(sniffs)

Oh, yeah. That's perfect.

Thanks so much.

Hey, honey.

I didn't even hear the door open.

-What a nice surprise. -(grunts)

Yeah. I, uh...

I just decided to leave work early.

I thought we could use some time together.

Aw. My considerate man.

-Yeah. -I called the office,

and Caroline said you were out with Chelsea.

-How'd it go? -Eh.

That bad?

(chuckles)

Well, may as well get it out in the open.

Chelsea thinks you're having an affair.

An affair?

First they accuse me of not caring enough about your health.

Now an affair?

I swear, they are just grasping at straws.

-Yeah, yeah, tell me about it. -Why would Chelsea

even say that?

Who does she think I'm cheating with?

Well, apparently you've been seen out with him.

Sammy.

(scoffs)

Now, I'm not trying to pressure you.

I would just be doing myself a disservice

if I didn't speak up.

I'm glad that you did.

I asked you to be open about how you felt.

Well...

...are you as ready as I am to make us the priority?

NICOLE: I know that I have been unfair.

I knew that you were interested in me,

and I knew that you couldn't act on it because of Ted.

And I was flattered when you tried again after the divorce.

(chuckles softly) Took a brother a long time to shoot his shot.

Being with you has allowed me to discover who I am on my own.

And I have enjoyed every minute of my time with you.

So have I.

You are patient and considerate.

You pay attention to the tiny details.

You care.

But I have been honest about what I am able to give you.

And if that's no longer enough...

...I have to respect that.

The last thing I want to do is hurt you, Carlton.

You are too good a man.

Well, I can't say I wasn't expecting that answer.

(chuckles softly)

I actually prepared myself for that.

Even if I was hoping for something else.

I am sorry, Carlton.

I just need you to answer one question.

All right, and-and I need you to be totally honest.

Anything.

Why Kial over me?

On with it, Mr. Big and Bad. What do you need to say?

I understand that Eva is in a delicate place.

But, again, it is not uncommon for patients to struggle

after they've had surgery that alters their appearance.

It's like she doesn't even recognize herself.

Which is why I say she needs emotional support.

Think about it. One minute she's at a fundraiser.

The next minute she's waking up badly injured,

having almost died.

Thank God her life was spared, but...

Her body was changed forever.

And she was completely unaware.

It's a lot to adjust to.

She's in turmoil, Ted.

This is why psychological assessments are done first.

The patient must show they are in a healthy mental state

and not under any sort of influence or duress.

It is clear that Eva is not in her best mind right now.

Are you trying to say she's crazy?

-What? No. -You know what, forget

that I ever asked you for anything.

I did not call...

our daughter crazy.

Do you think that you're the only one?

The one and only doctor?

No. I will find another doctor,

and at least I'm sure he will hear us out.

And I'm also sure that he'll give more of a damn

than her own daddy.

In fact, maybe it'll be the man

who's been keeping your ex warm.

Carlton's good enough for Nicole.

I am so sure he'll be good enough for me.

You and Kial are two completely different men

with your own strengths.

And his more aligns with yours?

Kial is a true fresh start.

It's easier being with somebody who you don't have history with.

There's no expectations, no pressure.

We just... are.

But you two are exclusive with each other?

Neither one of us is dating anyone else right now,

but that could change.

He is good with being fluid for as long as I need.

What? What is it?

I just don't think your situation is as fluid

as you believe.

And this isn't me being unwilling to accept your choice.

This is about me knowing exactly who I am.

And wanting to give all of myself to one woman.

And I want the same clarity for you.

What makes you think I'm unclear?

Well, you say that you want to be free

and you don't want to be committed to anyone.

And you were married for a long time,

and you deserve to explore all of yourself.

But from where I'm sitting...

...it doesn't seem like you just don't want to be tied down.

It's that...

...you don't want to be tied to me specifically.

And I'm not judging.

Or hating.

Just...

trying to help a friend see something that...

might be a little blurry.

So you want to remain friends?

Woman, that ain't never gonna change.

I am Team You all day,

every day.

I sincerely hope

you get everything that you want, Carlton.

-Oh, I will. (chuckles) -(chuckles)

I'm a good man, remember?

(sighs)

I'll see you around, Nicole.

I will see you around.

Why would I cheat on the best thing that's ever happened to me

with the person who reminds me of the worst?

I take one look at Sammy and I am instantly transported

-to the most traumatizing thing I've ever been through. -Okay, yeah, yeah.

Okay. Don't worry. I didn't buy into it.

I just cannot win with them.

And for Chelsea to drop this on you today of all days.

Yeah. Yeah.

It's been one year since...

(exhales) since we lost our baby.

-You remembered? -Yeah.

That's part of why I left work early.

I just figured you could use a little,

I don't know, extra loving.

You are so good to me.

(sighs): Oh, man.

I just wish your family would stop looking for the bad.

After all this, all we've been through,

they are never gonna forgive me for stealing you from Dani.

Ah, well,

don't worry about them, all right?

All that matters is us.

Do you know how it feels to be me?

How it feels to have everyone just constantly judging you?

Constantly looking for the worst. Huh?

No.

But you're not alone, Hayley, okay?

-I'm here for you, baby. -I...

I've tried to ignore it,

tried to not let their misunderstandings get to me,

but I am sick of it, Bill.

I am. And...

(sighs)

I just can't stay here anymore.

And, look, I-I know you have reservations about our trip,

but, baby, please,

I can't be here right now.

I need to go to St. Bart's.

Okay, so the florals and the length of this dress

make it perfect for spring,

but if you add a little ruching

and some delicate ruffles at the bottom,

that'll really set it apart.

You don't think the ruffles are too juvenile

-for our demo? -Mm-mm. No, no, no.

If you just make sure they're at the bottom

and that the skirt flows seamlessly into the trim,

then that makes it more romantic, less sweet 16.

Okay. What else?

Uh... Oh, this blouse.

Love the fabrication, and it's clear that you designed it

so that it flatters every body.

Then what's your addition?

Pantone has their Color of the Year.

So can I.

Lean into what you're already doing with the jewel tones

and the deep necklines-

this blouse goes from something you can wear to work

to something you work.

-Ooh. Okay. -Okay? (laughing)

Dani, that's really great stuff.

I will take all of this under advisement.

Well, thank you for even listening.

I am well aware that you don't have to.

Well, I told you, working with me

means more than just wearing the clothes.

I'm learning that.

Hmm, you know,

I always knew Andre had an eye.

Turns out, you do, too.

You and the mister, you're quite the couple.

We sure as hell are.

I'm surprised to hear you say that.

Even if I had a tiny suspicion that Dani was dipping out on me,

I wouldn't say it out loud.

I'd give her the benefit of doubt because she's earned it.

Well, of course, because my mom isn't Hayley.

But if she was cheating, wouldn't you want to know?

I wouldn't give energy to speculation.

-Men need hardcore facts, Chelsea. -(chuckles softly)

I'd like to think you'd defend Madison the same way.

Oh, I definitely would. But that's because

we're in healthier relationships.

We have partners that don't keep things from us

and don't have deep, dark secrets.

Anyway, I need to go.

And, uh, sorry about bursting in on you and Mom earlier.

Looked like you were in the middle of a conversation.

Nah, that's cool.

It's nothing we can't pick up later.

-(phone chimes) -Uh...

Are you okay?

You look like you just saw a ghost.
