That's my dorm.
Cleland Hall.

This campus
is huge, Katie.

How will you
ever get around?

There's a set
of wheels for you.

Probably sixty grand,
plus options.

And all that on top
of the tuition here?

I guess some parents have
money growing on trees.

Well, you're
in the clear dad,

all my loans
were approved

and the college has
a bikeshare program,

so I'm good on the
transportation front.

We should hurry
because I have

to get to the
bookstore by four.

All right, we'll
get you settled.

It's only two,
you'll get there.

Okay, that's
the last of it.

Thanks dad.

Yeah, sure.

Mom, I got it really.

Right.

Well, we should get going
before traffic hits.

Your dad's got a
bathroom installation

first thing in the
morning and...

...and you
have school.

Okay, well uh...
bye Katie.

Bye, dad.

I should probably
move the truck

before the meter
maid shows up.

I'll meet you
down there.

Okay.

What am I gonna do without
my interior designer?

Who'll help me figure out
where to put the Lazy Boy

when the new
curtains go up?

You know exactly where I
think that eye sore belongs.

It's your Dad's
favorite chair.

It's his favorite thing
in the whole house.

I can't get rid of it.

I beg to differ.

I know how hard you
worked to get here.

So make sure you
have some fun, okay?

You've earned it.

I love you, mom!

I love you too, baby.

[Keyboard clicking]

So how exactly do you
meet a Sugar Daddy?

It's just like
online dating.

You fill out a form
about yourself,

and say what kind
of guy you want to date.

And membership
is free for girls.

Daddies have to pay.

Age range
for guys?

No older than 35.

What if he's
really rich?

You should listen
to the pro, Rochelle.

[Laughing]

Fine, 40.

Tessa!?

Older guys like
something more steady

and they're willing to
support your career goals.

Like Leo. He totally
gets my modeling.

Leo is not 65,
he's 40.

He's a
very mature 40.

Take it from me,
I've done this a long time.

You'll meet some
guy in his 30's,

who's already made his
first 10 million,

he'll sweet talk you into
kinky sex on your first date

and then flame out.

You'll never hear
from him again.

Hey you should use
that picture of hers,

the cheerleading one.

It's adorable.

Ugh, really?
Me, cheerleading?

Oh yeah,
guys love that.

They've all got high
school fantasies.

I find that a
tad disturbing.

But they also want
girls with ambition too.

So, I'll add that you're
Phi Beta Kappa to your profile.

[Message ping]

I did not just get
a message. Already?!

Oh yes you did!

Ugh.

Yikes, if he were
such a wealthy stud

he'd pay to get
his teeth capped.

It's a full-time job
just weeding out

the guys on
this site.

Yeah, that's true.

Not to mention
how many dates

end up being a total
waste of time.

That's because you date a
bunch of guys at once, Sasha.

Never mind you.

Here you go.

Thanks.

You know, I really think
Ken could be the one.

You know how many times
I've heard that before?

All right, it comes
to $470.52.

Yikes...

I wasn't expecting
it to be that much.

Don't you know
our school motto?

"Welcome to Montlake.
Now open your wallet."

[Chuckling]

Guess some of these
are supplemental

so I... don't need them.

Well, you could
open an account.

Pay for what
you can now

and put the
rest on credit.

I'm pre-med, so I
take advantage of that.

Okay then I'll
take all of them.

-Cool.

And this one too.

First year here?

Yeah, but
I'm a junior.

Just transferred from
Worthington Community.

Worthington?

It's a drive east,
a long time.

Anyway, there's
not much

of an art history
department there.

Art history... what dorm
do they put you in?

Um... Cleland Hall?

I'm right across the
street, frat house.

I'm Sean, by the way.

Katie.

Can you move it along?

You just... sign it
I'll do the rest.

Okay.

Great.

Thank you.

Hey, see you later.

Thanks.

My first week,
I had three offers

to be whisked away
for spring break.

One to St. Barts,

Paris for shopping
the next...

I can't even remember.

But it all beats getting drunk
with frat boys in Palm Springs.

[Message ping]

Oooh, check
out this guy.

He doesn't
look too bad.

Hmm... let's check
out his finances.

Oh, no forget it.

He hasn't completely
filled out his form.

He's a scammer.

Creep.

Too bad, because
he's a cutie.

Not to worry, plenty
of sugar in the bowl.

[Message ping]

Perv.

Poser.

Oooh, what
about this guy?

He's ancient,
but I like that suit.

Leo has one
like it.

Wait, I
know him.

Or, I know of him.

He's brilliant,
richer than god.

Started countless
businesses.

Yeah, he's older
than god too.

That's okay
as long as...

wait, do all Sugar
Daddies want sex?

In the 14th century the
hierarchy of Venice

decided they needed
a building to demonstrate

the city's
new wealth and power.

So this structure,
the Doge Palace, was born.

Who can tell me what is
unexpected about its design?

Oh, well it's
Katie, again.

The Byzantine architecture
relates more to their

trading partners to
the East than the

late medieval architecture
of northern Italy.

Very good, excellent.

[Upbeat music]

So tell me,

what is Saul Williams doing
on a Sugar Baby website?

How do you know
my real name?

I always do
my homework.

And you seriously under
reported your net worth.

That's gotta
be a first.

That's an interesting way
to start an initial meeting.

What should
I be doing?

Stroking your ego
and 'Yessing' you

like everyone
else you know?

You sound
like my wife.

Very forthright,
just like you.

Married Sugar Daddies are a
deal breaker, just so you know.

She died,
three years ago.

What, you didn't find
that out in your research?

Oh my gosh.
I'm so sorry.

So am I.
Ovarian cancer.

That's so tough.

And proof positive that money
doesn't buy everything.

I'm well familiar
with that.

Now be sure to read
the relevant chapters

in your supplemental
text before next class.

I understand the bookstore
ran out of copies.

Who doesn't have one?

Please share with
your classmates

until the bookstore
stocks up.

Hi, I'm Katie.

I already
read the pages

if you want to
borrow my book.

Oh, Tessa, thanks.

When do you want
it back by?

Next week.

Or, maybe the weekend?

I may want to
re-read the pages.

I can come by your
dorm and pick it up?

Oh I'm off campus.

That's fine too.

[Phone ringing]

Hey babe!
How was your trip?

That's because I wasn't
there with you...

Sure, come by
any time.

Photo shoot's not
till next week.

Friends have encouraged
me to date, but...

not easy to do when you've
been married for 40 years.

On top of that
I'm out of town

three weeks out of
every month

and the few women that
I have briefly dated

are not happy with that.

They wanted more
commitment

and that's something
I'm not prepared to give.

Let me be
straight with you.

I'm not in interested
in trying to hook you.

I don't want to be
Saul Williams' trophy wife.

I want to be
Saul Williams.

I see...

I'm double majoring in
finance and business.

My goal is to
graduate, get my MBA,

and not end up $250,000
in the hole.

I don't have rich
parents to pay my way.

I was raised by
a single mom.

So what exactly would
I be getting out of this

arrangement between us?

A date who looks
gorgeous on your arm

and knows how to talk
business with your clients.

And when you need feedback
on a new product,

you will always get
my honest opinion.

And the arrangement
will only cost you

three thousand a month.

Wow, you're starting
very low...

I'm well aware I could be
charging a whole lot more.

I don't want
designer purses

or my hair done at
a celebrity salon.

What I want are
my bills paid

and three thousand a
month will cover that.

When you need me,
I'll be there.

If you want space,
you can have that too.

And I'm not going to
have sex with you.

Please! If you
want sex,

you can afford the
best in the business.

So are you telling me
that for $3000 a month,

I don't even get
a striptease?

Come on, Saul.

Didn't you just say,
money can't buy everything?

[Laughing]

Very good.

Katie.

Oh, hey.

I'm very impressed with
your contribution in class.

Have you spent much
time in Italy?

No, I've never been.

I just took a
couple courses at

Worthington
Community College.

And I just like
reading about it.

Yes, I can see that.

Have you thought about
the Montlake summer

fellowship at the
University of Florence?

Yes, I'm going to apply.

Glad to hear it.

Use me as a reference.

Really? Thank
you so much.

It's an excellent program,
very prestigious.

A real calling card.

That's what I've heard.

Going there would
be a dream.

Good.

Thank you.

I'm ready to close the
financing and now

you tell me they're
on the fence?

I'm leveraged up
the ying-yang.

Look, I don't care what
time it is in Shanghai.

Please, just get on the horn
and make this happen.

Leo, what do
you think?

Which dress do you
think is better?

This one, or the blue
one I had on before?

Leo, this is
important.

I'm up for a
huge ad campaign.

Which one do you
think is better?

God, you're gorgeous.

You're gonna take back the
one you don't wear, right?

Well, if you let me
keep them both,

I'll show you what I
bought for underneath.

I gotta get to work,
put out a fire.

My sexy fireman.

You got a friend that can
join us for dinner tonight?

I've got a colleague in town,
he could use some company.

Hmm, well Rochelle has
a new Sugar Daddy,

so she's out.

What about Sara?

You mean Sasha?

Right, Sasha.

She's cute,
good at a party.

Maybe too good. Plus
she's got her hands full

with two guys
at the moment.

Not to mention that hunk, Ken,
who's head over heels for her.

Too bad.
Anyone else?

I think I might
know someone...

Smart girl.

Go on, get
out of here.

Right, right...

Hey, Katie!

Hi!

Hey I'm glad
I caught you.

I'm here to give you
one of these...

It's a keg at
the frat tonight.

It's nothing special,
we do it every weekend.

But if you wanna
come by, feel free to.

Sure, it
sounds fun.

Really? I mean cool!

I'll, uh, I'll
see you there.

[Street traffic]

Hi.

Hi, I'm looking for-

I've been trying
to reach you for hours.

Costa is screwing
on the financing.

Need a backup plan.

Tessa, it's Katie!

I'm just getting out
of the shower!

Make yourself at home.

Are you kidding?

It's a Von Hoffman
turn of the century.

This is worth like-

It was a gift.

I don't really love it.

Sorry, I'm obsessed
with this era.

I can see that.

You want a drink?

I've got vodka, tequila,

a bottle of white
wine somewhere.

No, thanks, I'm
a lightweight

and if I crash
my cruiser

who knows how much
Bikeshare will charge me.

Wow.

That's you, on the cover
of Euro-Couture magazine?

Come on!

That photo's ancient, like,
spring two years ago.

Hey my friend who
gave me those chairs

is coming
out tonight.

We're going downtown,
wanna come?

Actually I sort of RSVP'd
to this frat thing.

I didn't know frat boys
took RSVP's.

This one guy invited me,
I sort of said I would go.

[Phone ringing]

Hey babe.
Miss me already?

No, no dinner tonight.

I have a go-see next
week and I'm getting fat...

[Loud dance music]

Thank you.

Hi, I'm Cory.

Hi. Katie.

Looks like you
need a refill.

[Laughing]
I just got here.

Have you seen Sean?

Yeah, over there.

Thanks!

Bottoms up.

Hi!

-Katie!

Hey, you made it!

Are you doing okay?

Yeah, I'm good.

I'm better now
that you're here.

Hey, um,

do you...

do you want a-

[Vomiting]

Oh! Ewwww!

[Wincing]
Ugh! Ewww!

[Knock at the door]

One second, I said!

Hurry up!

Come on!

Hello?

Hey Tessa...
it's Katie.

What's up?

Is the offer to go out
with you still good?

[Sophisticated jazz music]

Welcome to Sky House.

I read about this place
in my Seattle guide.

You're a member here?

It's my home
away from home.

I am way
underdressed.

All the guys are
like GQ types,

and I'm in
jeans and-

Chill!

Your ass looks
great in jeans.

But still, invest
in an LBD.

-LBD?

Little Black Dress.

While you're there, invest
in a pair of stilettos

the higher, the better.

Scrunchies went out
in the 90's!

You should wear your hair
down more anyways.

And that plum lipstick is
trying way too hard.

Here put this on.

Wow, it's a major
improvement.

You ready now?

Okay, let's
do this.

Hey!

Hi.

Katie, Sasha.
Sasha, Katie.

Hi.

Hey.

New guys?

Yeah well, Ken's been
giving me a hard time.

So I took your advice,
went back to the sugar bowl,

and look what I landed.

These guys are all
richer than sin.

Tessa is awesome.

Yeah, I get that.

Come on.

Leo.

Hi babe!

Hey.

Leo, this is Katie.
Katie, Leo.

-Hi!

Hi Katie.

And this must
be James.

Pleasure, Katie.

Is the champagne
chilled?

Glacier.

Here take this.

If I give my business
card to someone,

I never feel guilty
about writing

the night off
as an expense.

Excellent tax
advice, Leo.

Wow, nice cards.

Obviously it doesn't take
much to impress you, Katie.

You should have seen her
lose it over my chaise lounge.

Where are you from?

Worthington. It's a long,
boring ride from here.

Don't know it.

Katie is in my art
history class.

You're showing up for
classes this term?

Screw off, Leo.

I can't help it
if all my go-sees

happen to be
during the day.

So... is your company
K2 Design based here?

No, London.
But our clients,

mostly commercial real
estate developers like Leo,

are from all
over the world.

I'm lining up the financing
on two properties...

So you get to travel a lot,
that must be nice.

For me, yes.

For my wife it
wasn't so much fun

which is why
she's now my ex.

What about you?

Oh no, I'm
not married.

I'll let you two
get acquainted,

we'll be right back.

What I meant was, what do
you want to do for work?

[Laughing]

I want to get a job at
an interior design firm,

and then once I have
enough experience,

open up my own shop.

Oh, no, no no.
I'm good.

Come on, it's not
a school night.

Okay.

Do I like him?!

He's ridiculously hot.

He has that sexy
English accent

and he gets what I want
to do with my life.

Of course I like-

[Gasps]
Ow!

You all right
in there?

No, I'm not.

I had like two or three
glasses of champagne.

I told you I'm
a lightweight.

I'm gonna stay over
at Leo's tonight.

Is it okay if James
gives you a ride home?

I think I'll manage.

[Car horn]

They were really
going too fast

or maybe it's all
that champagne?

[Soft piano music]

I should
get you home.

Why? It's not a
school night.

I need to be on a call
to Europe in an hour.

You're such a tease.

Not always.

You know, I always stop in
Seattle on my way to Asia.

And that's a trip I try
to make at least

once or twice a month.

Such a busy boy
from Leeds.

What I'm trying to
say, Katie, is...

I would really love
to see you again.

And I'm saying, I
would love that.

So, Tessa, what
do you think?

Looks great, if you're
going to a funeral.

Which you might be,
given how old Simon is.

Saul.

And this is the only thing
of yours that fits me, Tessa.

It looks conservative!

That's what
you want, right?

He invited me to an angel
investing panel

at the finance conference
that he's hosting.

And he catered a
dinner from Morton's.

All that and a few
dinners this month?

Are you sure he doesn't
expect you to put out?

He likes
my ambition.

The fact that I
have career goals.

I can't believe this!
This model is everywhere!

You're a million
times prettier.

Yeah but, she's like twelve.
She has no wrinkles.

Tessa, you don't
have wrinkles.

Why else would they hire her
again for a skin product?

She just did a huge
Victoria make-up campaign!

You'll land something
else, you always do.

I just need
more exposure.

Hey! Katie.

Hey.

I went by your dorm
the other day

but there was
nobody there.

Look, I'm really sorry about
this weekend, the party.

I feel like... I don't
know how to say it, an ass?

Don't worry
about it, seriously.

Ok, I mean...

truth is I can't really
talk to girls that well

without two
drinks in me.

You're doing
okay now.

You're being really
cool about all this.

Can I maybe, make it up
to you this weekend?

Umm, I have a
friend in town so...

maybe another time?

Yeah, sounds good.

Do you want me to put this
book on your account?

Yeah, that
would be great.

I know I owe
another payment.

Actually, your account
is paid for in full.

Uh, that's impossible.
I owe $400.

No, check it out.
Look! Zero balance.

Says there's an
envelope here for you.

Here.

It's my rich uncle.

Lucky you!

Yeah.

Oh hey, don't
forget your...

Right.

Why did you tell James I owed
money to the bookstore?

I didn't.

Then how did
he find out?

Look, James wanted
to give you a gift.

But something practical,

something you would
really like.

So I told him a lot of students
have accounts at the bookstore.

He doesn't need to
be giving me gifts.

We just met.
It's weird.

Well, he wanted to.
Like I said,

I thought it would do more for
you than a designer handbag.

And it's not
weird, Katie.

It's two people
who like you,

Tessa and this guy
who wanted to do

something nice
for you.

Look Katie, I didn't
mean to offend you.

I was sure he said
something to you about it.

About what?

There's nothing wrong
with getting a little

financial help
when you need it.

And we all need it.

Why would you
need it, Tessa?

Your father is
Charles Bouillette.

He watches me
like a hawk,

every penny I spend,

my bank accounts,
my credit cards.

And I'm trying to launch
a modelling career, okay?

I need new headshots all the
time, clothes, makeup.

Guys like Leo and
James, they get it.

They have the resources and
they don't mind helping out.

They want to help.

It's what
rich guys do.

Ken spoils me.

Especially when
I ignore him.

So they help by
giving gifts?

An allowance is part
of the arrangement.

Isn't that hooking?

What?

Hooking is about sex.

Having an arrangement
with a sugar daddy

is about companionship
with a guy

you'd want to spend
time with anyways.

Sophisticated men who
take you places

and show you things.

And expect sex in return.

Oh, so you wouldn't wanna
have sex with James?

Yeah, that's what
I thought.

Look Katie, James is
important to Leo.

I wouldn't have introduced
him to just anyone.

But you're perfect.

Brains and beauty,
the whole package.

True, she wouldn't.

This is all
really confusing.

Actually, its pretty
straight forward.

You're smart,
you're ambitious.

You're gonna graduate
from college

with a ridiculous
amount of debt.

And what, try and
land an internship?

That doesn't pay?

We're all in the
same boat, Katie.

I don't know, but
I really wish you had

told me all this
before the bar.

Why? So you could
act like this?

All judgemental and
holier than thou?

It's just not me.

Whatever.

Katie!

Hi. Do you have time for
a quick word?

Sure.

Well I'm sorry to have
to tell you this,

but you didn't get the
University of Florence

summer fellowship.

Damn.

It was very competitive

and they just had too many
qualified candidates.

Yeah, um...

Well, thank you
for letting me know.

No, no...
hold on, Katie.

From your performance
in class,

it's obvious you
deserve to be there.

So I did something I've never
done for any student before.

I spoke to the
members of the jury

and they've agreed to add
an extra spot for you.

Are you kidding?

No.

That's great!
Thank you so much!

The downside is,

while I got the fellowship
to pay for the course

you have to cover your own
flight and room and board.

But you can get a deal
at a pensione

and inexpensive food
on a meal plan.

Okay, uh, how much
will that run?

Around $7000
for the summer.

I just don't think
that's possible.

I'm already maxed
out on loans.

I literally have $22
in my bank account.

Can you talk
to your parents?

They're pretty much
tapped out now

helping me
however they can.

Look I know it's tough.

But this program is a
feeder into the top

interior design
firms in the country.

Believe me, I know.

I really wanna do it.

I'll hold them off
for a week.

See what you can do
to make it work.

Okay?

Okay, I need
two new outfits

for my new
headshots.

You tell me which
ones you like best,

and I'll let you borrow
whatever you want

for your next
date with Saul.

Better start on my two week
juice fast so they'll fit.

Hold up the
blue one again.

That's it, yeah.

James, asking you
for this money

is really
embarrassing for me.

The $7000 will be
transferred to your account

first thing
in the morning.

I only need half to secure
my place in the program.

The final payment isn't due
until after Thanksgiving.

You'll rest easier
not worrying where

the rest of the money
is gonna come from.

I'll pay you back
as soon as I can.

Stop it, you're not
paying me back.

I'm not looking
for a handout.

I've been working
since I was 15,

helping my dad,
waitressing, babysitting...

I'm sorry, I
really don't mean

to come off as
ungrateful. It's just-

I get it. You pride yourself
on your independence.

That's what I
like about you.

Listen to me, I've
been there before.

I know how hard it is to
do everything on your own.

This program in Florence
is a great opportunity

and you shouldn't
miss out.

The last thing you need is more
debt hanging over your head.

And I wouldn't be doing this
if I couldn't afford it.

So no more talking
about paying me back.

Can you do that for me?
I want it out of your mind.

It's out of my mind.

Okay.

Let's have a
little fun, shall we?

Come on.

[Garage door closing]

Oh my gosh.
This is amazing!

One of the perks of being
an investor in the company.

You get keys to the showroom to
take people on private tours.

The detail and...

Ahhh!

Where is this
piece from?

I picked it up at an
auction in Holland.

It's a coastal contemporary
piece by Adelaide Wilder.

It's exquisite.

A client wanted
that couch.

But I decided I wanted
to keep it for myself.

Did you already pay
for it? It's yours?

Yes, why? What
are you thinking?

I think we
better christen it.

Is that right?

[Flute jazz music]

[Flute jazz music]

This is a depiction of the lady
attempting to seduce the man,

who's resisting
her advances.

-So she's a prostitute?

-No, she's not
a prostitute,

she's a courtesan.

Although I admit these
days the distinction

is a little harder
to understand.

[Phone ringing]

Owen, hey.

Hey, baby bro!

Hey just to let you to know,
I'm gonna be in town tomorrow.

Thought I'd take
you out to dinner.

Right on, where
you wanna go?

Heard of this place
that's supposed

to have a lot
of hot chicks.

Where's that?

I don't know exactly.
It's called Sky House.

I can meet
there around 7.

It's classy
dress code Sean,

you got a jacket?

Yeah yeah, I think so.

Where is this place?

I'll text you the address
when I find it. Later bro.

[Hangs up]

Hey Sean.

Hey.

What's up with you?

I found out yesterday
I got an internship

over the winter break.

Wow that's cool.
Doing what?

Just a study-work thing
for pre-med students.

Basically assist a
medical outreach team.

Anyway, I'll be going around
villages giving out vaccines.

Wait, Sean...
villages?

Where are you
doing this?

Congo, Africa.

Congo. Wow,
that's amazing!

Yeah, tell that
to my parents.

They're pretty
freaked.

Well, I can
kinda see why.

It's really far away,
and I don't know,

maybe kind of
dangerous?

Honestly, my parents would
find a reason to worry

about me in
the next town.

But that's what
parents do.

Yeah, sounds familiar.

Hey, what about you?

With the great art
history program...

I hear Hickman's
a real hard-ass though.

Yeah, she's my favorite.

Yeah, I bet.

What's that
supposed to mean?

I've worked in that
bookstore for two years,

you're the first
person that's come in

and bought every single
supplemental text there is.

[Laughing]

I don't believe you.

Oh hey, here's
my study partner.

Oh, cool.

I have to go
soon anyway.

Great talking.

Yeah. You too.

Hi, Sean!

Hey.

You okay to study?

Me? Yeah, why?

I don't know.

Maybe you're
a little distracted?

Yep, distracted.

I've got some client
money to play with.

Here's the brochure.

All mid-century modern.
That's my favorite.

Have you ever
placed a bid before?

Sure. For $15
lamps on eBay.

It's basically
the same thing.

Apart from the three
extra zeroes.

I've got something
here for you.

What's this?

Open it.

James...

And this, as well.

Didn't want to get lost
at the bottom of the box.

It's for shoes.

I couldn't remember if
you were a six or seven.

And a bag. I know how
ladies love to accessorize.

James...

(Stammering)
This, this is all too much.

I can't take
all of this.

The dress alone is worth
a fortune, please.

You've helped me
so much already.

Well, if it will make
you feel any better,

you'll be the one helping
me out this time.

I need a date for the
museum this Saturday.

There's a gala opening.

For the opening of the
Picasso exhibit?

You keep surprising me with
all these nice things!

You're so appreciative.
I like that.

You don't take it for
granted like other girls.

So you do this with
other girls too?

Sorry. I just don't get how
this whole thing is...

supposed to work.

Katie, I like
giving you things.

It makes me feel happy.

But if it makes you
uncomfortable, I'll stop.

No one has ever given me
something so beautiful before.

I don't know what to say.

Say thank you and
that you'll go.

Ladies! Katie, this
is Rochelle.

And you know Sasha.

Hi, nice to meet
you Rochelle.

Hey Sasha.

Hey.

Champagne?

Always.

Heard you're a brilliant
interior designer, Katie.

Oh, that's just Tessa
doing my PR.

She's good at that.

Well, my friends are fabulous,
powerful women who will be

the top of their industries
in five years tops.

Anybody asks,
I said it first.

Rochelle is the
business major here,

she's working on
getting her MBA.

Then she'll be a CEO of
a Fortune 500 company.

Make that Fortune 50.

We're out.

Oh, I'll get it.

Another bottle of
Veuve LaPlante please.

Dipping into your Italy
internship fund?

Don't worry, you can always
ask for more sweetie.

And Sasha, how do you
describe Sasha?

A label whore?

Don't you love
my new shoes?

Another pair?

How many times
have we been over this?

You have to stop
spending all your money.

Why? Her tuition
is covered.

What does she
gotta worry about?

I didn't buy them, okay?
You remember Ken?

-No.

He took me shopping.

Said I just had
to have them.

Ease up Sasha, you're
freaking Katie out.

To Katie!

(Everyone)
To Katie!

[Glasses clinking]

So Katie... what kind
of guy is your type?

James.

James is my type.

Who's James?

Leo's business associate
from London.

Speak of the devil.

-Hi Katie.

Katie, you hit
the jackpot.

I texted you
from the lobby.

Sorry to interrupt,
ladies.

I don't know how
I missed it, sorry.

No worries.

James, you
know Tessa.

This is Rochelle
and Sasha.

James, hello.

Pull up a chair James,
stay a while.

We have to be across
town by eight.

I thought it
started at nine!

No, I was wrong.

Ok, well we
better go.

Sorry to drink
and run.

It was nice meeting
all of you.

Have fun at
the gala!

[Laughing]

Wait.

Katie, we're late.

I have to give
you this now.

If I don't, I'm gonna end
up telling you what it is.

I'm horrible
at surprises.

It's a tie clip.

Darn it. Sorry!

You didn't have to
get me anything.

I saw it and I
wanted it for you.

Just because.

Do you like it?

It's very thoughtful
of you.

Okay, now we can go.

Tess?

What?

What is this?
An inquisition?

I just want to know if
the charges are right.

$1200 at the Sky House
last Thursday?

I was out
with the girls.

Two nights at the Bayside Hotel
Monday and Tuesday, fine.

But an $1800/night suite?

Was that with
the girls too?

That was for my
photographer, okay?

He did my
headshots there.

We talked about using
someone local this time.

This is important.

I need the top fashion
photographers in the business.

This is for Paris
Fashion Week.

Don't tell me...

I get to pay for
that trip too?

You want me to
beg for it,

is that what
you want?

This is the third
round of headshots.

Does it really
make a difference?!

You need a new strategy!

You're right, I do.

I'm sorry.

I'm moving to
New York.

Where the real
modeling work is.

Tessa, how many times have
we been through this?

I can't have you 3000
miles away from me.

And I can't keep putting
my life on hold for you!

I'm 23 years old.
There are girls 17 and 18

getting better modeling
gigs than me.

It's over Leo!

Tessa...

What are you still
doing there?!

Go, get out!

Please, babe...

I can't lose you.

Whatever you need,
whatever you want.

You want that new
electric car?

I'll get you one.

I love you.

There's only one spot
in the garage, Leo.

I'll get you
another one.

I'll get you two.

I'll get you
whatever you want.

Just promise me no more
talk about New York.

ngs
go viral, the sky's the limit.

I agree, Don.

The apps in the portfolio
have enormous potential.

But the business plan has
some major holes in it.

I had an expert
look at it.

I'd like to talk
to your expert.

Walk him through
our projections.

It's a her, Don, and there's
nothing to talk about.

Your client wants
me to invest,

I have to put my people
in to run the shop.

That's my bottom line.

They'll never agree to it.
You're missing the boat, Saul.

Boats sail every day.

I'll take the
next one, bye-bye.

I didn't say you
should pass!

Even if the projections
are shaky,

I still said these apps
are gonna be huge!

You young people,
you have no patience.

Five, four, three,
two, one...

Well, an old man
can make mistakes.

[Intercom ringing]

Yes, Judy.

Donald Smith on Line 1,
Mr. Williams.

Yes, Don.

Alright Saul, they'll
take the deal.

Great. I'll have my lawyer
draw up the papers.

Thanks Don.

Want to celebrate tonight?

I meant to you give this
last time I saw you.

I told you before we're up
to date on payments.

It's not a payment.

What is it?

Open it and
you'll find out.

A letter of recommendation
for business school?

At my number
one choice?

It's a formality.

Or it will be when I call
them on the phone for you.

I know the Dean we sit on
several boards together.

Saul, are you kidding me?
You didn't have to do this.

In my entire career,

do you know how many letters of
recommendation I've written?

And meant it? Three.

Two of them have
gone on to run

multi-billion dollar
companies.

So don't screw it up,
it's a very high bar.

Thank you,
so much.

Dinner next week?

I'll be in Boston with
my son and grandkids.

I'm leaving on the weekend and
I'll be gone for a month.

Saul Williams, taking a whole
month away from the office?

Well, something's
been pulling me

to spend more
time with them.

But you watch. I'll be
there for three days

and they'll
send me home.

Good. What will
I do without you?

I will have to go back to
being a boring college student.

I'll see you after
Thanksgiving.

[Car door opens]

[Soft piano music]

Did you get my text?

I was out shopping.
My bad.

Wine? You look like
you need a glass.

More like a bottle.

James and I had this
amazing night at the gala.

The next morning
he left for Europe,

and I haven't heard
from him since.

I get it, he's at auctions and
there's a time difference but

how busy can he be
to not respond

to at least one
of my texts?

It's been two weeks!

How many times
did you text him?

I don't remember.

More than five?
Less than ten?

Less than ten.

Are you texting him as a
stage one clinger

or do you
need money?

I mentioned money once.

I dipped into my
Italy fund again

to buy my dad his
birthday gift.

I'm short $2000 and
I have to make

the final payment right
after Thanksgiving.

Katie, there are ways
to ask a Sugar Daddy.

Dropping it into a text
is not one of them.

I know, it was stupid.

I hate this whole money
relationship thing anyway.

It's so confusing
and stressful.

I like him, Tessa.
For real.

I think when he's not
consumed with his work,

he really likes me too.

I have no idea where
his head is at,

if that's what
you're asking.

I barely know James, I met
him the same night you did.

What do I do?

You have to talk
to James about it.

Really? I have
to have the talk?

What other choice
do you have?

You want to make sure that
you're on the same page.

But do it in person
when he's back in town.

[Phone ringing]

This is Tessa.

Miss Bouillette?

Yes, Tessa Bouillette.

I'm calling in regards to

pat due payments
on your car lease.

I have no idea when
the payments

were made on
my car last.

Well our records show-

I don't make them.

Call the person
who does.

And who usually
makes the payments?

Leo Granger, here I'll
give you his cell.

Please hold ma'am.

(Whispering)
Leo's going to love this.

This may take a while.

That's fine I'm ridiculously
behind on all my classes.

And I haven't started the term
paper that's due tomorrow.

So... see ya.

Katie, text James again
and I swear to god

I'll confiscate
your phone.

Sorry, was
that Leo Ranger?

No, Granger.
G-R-A-N-G-E-R.

Our records show
payments are past due.

What are you
talking about?

Hi I'm Peter,
a friend of James.

Katie. Are you
waiting for James?

He was supposed
to meet me here.

25 minutes ago.

Actually he got pulled
into a late meeting.

He could have texted me,
saved you the trouble.

No, I'm happy to
help a Yale buddy.

Compliments of the
gentleman, miss.

You don't have
to do that.

No, no no.

-Thank you sir.

So, can you join
me for dinner?

Thank you, but I've got
to get back to studying.

Finals are right around
the corner at Montlake,

and I'm way behind.

Borderline train wreck.

I know you
need $2000.

So that's what Yale buddies
do for each other?

They pass off the girl when
they're through with her?

Provisions for
my road trip.

Tell me you're not
going to spend

the entire holiday
studying.

Well, Mallory
invited me up

to her family's place
for the day.

You're gonna screw in
her childhood bedroom.

That's so hot.

We're study partners.
That's it.

I've seen the way
she looks at you.

What the hell is
wrong with you man?

I don't try to screw
everything that moves?

It's that other girl
isn't it? Katie.

I can't afford Katie.

What do you mean?
Is she rich or something?

She hangs out
at Sky House.

Really?! You know
what they say

about college girls
who hang out there.

I know.

Damn...

No time for exotic
excursions.

I'm spending Thanksgiving
getting a jump

on the reading list
for B-school.

When is Saul
coming back?

Sunday night.

Four weeks as it turns
out is a very long time.

I kind of
miss him.

Someone finally
gonna get some?

Maybe. After all,
Christmas is coming.

If anyone wants to
do Istanbul, I'm in.

Where is Leo
gonna be?

Who knows, somewhere
with his wife.

Why is Leo still with her?
It makes no sense.

They don't have kids and
she knows about you.

He's with her because
she bails him out

every time his
finances go south.

Financing must be
pretty bad if he's going

to be with her for
four straight days.

What about
you Katie?

Is James taking you
somewhere fabulous?

Katie screwed up.

She made the mistake
of confusing

her sugar daddy with
a rich boyfriend.

Stop with all
the pressure.

It's okay. We're gonna
find her somebody new.

The best thing to do is to
get right back on the horse.

There's lots of guys
with lots of money.

Give her time
to grieve.

It's fine, I already have plans
to go back to Worthington.

It's my dad's birthday
and I promised my mom

I'd be home for
Thanksgiving.

I need a drink.

I'm going to need another
5-10 minutes with this turkey.

No problem.

I'll give Dad his birthday
present before we eat!

She's been waiting
for this all day.

It's in the den, dad.

Now listen, having you home
is enough of a present.

Come on, dad. Move it!

All right,
all right.

Hurray!

Should I be
blind folded?

Hurry up,
hurry up, hurry up!

TA-DA!

Happy Birthday!

Was this your idea?

No, Katie's.

I didn't even
know about it

until the delivery
man showed up.

You know how hard this thing
was to hide in the laundry room?

I know this is a
big change, dad.

But I promise,

its just as comfortable
as your Lazy Boy.

That chair costs $1500.

Believe me, I didn't
pay that much.

It's a knockoff.

Well, if we can't make
a mortgage payment,

I guess I can
always sell it.

You do that, dad.

Sweetie, your dad's
just worried about

how much money you're
spending on us.

You're in school, we don't want
you getting further into debt.

I'm not getting
further into debt.

I picked up work
on the side!

You mean waitressing?

No, I'm consulting.

(Stammering) What does
that even mean?

I'm helping clients out
with interior design.

But what do
you care?

You've made up your mind,
you don't want it!

(Whispering)
It's $1500.

What'cha looking for?

Your stash of wine.
I definitely need some.

(Wine pouring)

Here you go, sweetie.

But be careful.

You sure didn't eat
very much at dinner.

Hey, are you okay?

You've seemed really on edge
since you've been home.

Everything's fine Mom.
Just... forget about it.

Okay.

Katie, I have
your laundry.

Thanks, Mom!

[Message ping]

Mom, what are you
doing? That's private!

Is that where all this
stuff is from? Those men?

Katie I want to
know what's going on.

Nothing... it's just
a dating website.

To find men who promise
to do what? Pay your rent?

They're not
paying my rent.

Well it's a website where men
pay women for something.

It's not what
this is about, Mom.

Well, what is it
about Katie?

If a guy gives you
gifts and likes you,

what's the problem?

Gifts?

Okay, fine. I wanted
to go to Italy.

There's this summer abroad thing
at the University of Florence.

It's an amazing program
and I got in...

but it costs $7000.

For heaven's sake Katie,
why didn't you call us?

Talk to us?

I thought it was
too much to ask,

and it is too much to ask.
After all you've done...

If Italy was so
important to you

I would have sold
Grandma's jewellery.

Maybe I didn't want
to make you feel

like you had to sell
Grandma's jewellery!

That you would even
consider this as an option.

I'm choosing a man who
will support my dreams.

Maybe if dad had
done that for you,

you'd have gotten that
graduate degree

you always wanted.

Your Dad is a wonderful
husband and father.

Are there compromises
I've made? Yes.

But I can live with them.

Can you really live
with yourself

if you're seeing men and
accepting gifts like this?

That's something you're gonna
have to decide for yourself.

[Door closing]

[Sobbing]

[Message ping]

Yeah, right.

Miss Rochelle.

Welcome back.

Hi. Do you mind if we
go for an early dinner?

I'm dying for a steak.

My son and his
wife are vegans.

Don't tell me, tofurkey
for Thanksgiving?

It was awful,
you have no idea.

Is Morton's okay?

I have a better idea.

Room service.

As in hotel
room service?

I thought this was never
going to happen?

You old people
have no patience.

Change of plans.
Bayside Hotel, downtown.

Yes sir.

[Knock at the door]

What?

What's wrong? Tessa,
are you okay?

The mailbox is full.

Now he blocked
me? Bastard!

Who blocked you?

Leo! He got back
into town last night.

He was supposed to come over
and he never showed up.

He totally
screwed me over!

Okay, okay. Hey.

Drink this.
Slow down.

Tell me what
happened, slowly.

Apparently Leo hasn't
been making payments

on this condo
for two months.

He totally neglected
our arrangement

and didn't talk
to me about it!

What? Why?

Something about
money troubles.

Maybe his wife finally
put her foot down.

They're going to
take everything.

My furniture,
paintings, all of it.

How is that
even possible?

Well he paid for it so I guess
legally it belongs to him.

Or his bitch wife.
Either way, he's taking it.

If I don't come up with
$15,000 in two weeks,

I'm gonna be out
on the street!

Okay, can't your
dad help you?

I know you don't want
to tell him some things,

but in this situation,
he's gotta help.

If my dad had any money,
he'd put it in his arm.

What? Okay,
I don't understand.

Isn't your father-

He's not Charles Bouillette,
the billionaire.

He's John Bouillette,
the deadbeat dad who

dropped me at my Grandma's
when my mom died.

He's never sent me
a Christmas card

or called me
on my birthday.

And when I
first got here,

those bitches with
the fancy clothes,

and the nice cars and their
tuition all paid for,

they thought I was related to
the famously rich Bouillette.

I let them believe it.

I thought it was hilarious,
them kissing my ass.

The girl raised
in a trailer park.

That's a big secret to
keep all this time.

You keep so many
for so long,

it's hard to know
what's true anymore.

Or if it even
matters.

You're the first
person I've told.

I'm glad you did.

I should have dumped
Leo months ago.

For a sugar daddy who wasn't
overleveraged out of his ass.

I had offers.
Loads of offers!

Maybe there's another way.
What about modeling?

You are so
good at that.

You know how much a print
ad pays up here? Nothing.

The real modeling work
is in New York.

All that time
I wasted with Leo.

I should have moved
so long ago!

There was this guy who
contacted me,

what was his name?
Martin? Michael?

He was for real, he was
one of the Forbes 400.

Tessa...

Tessa... maybe it's
time for a break.

The lifestyle, the money,
it's like an addiction.

You took the money
just like I did.

You're right, but if
I keep doing it,

I'm afraid I'll start
believing that's all there is.

I know not every
relationship is about love.

I guess I just want to believe
there's a possibility.

Don't you?

Love is invented
for poor people.

I'm dropping my
membership to the site.

I just came to
tell you that.

[Soft instrumental music]

Saul?

Saul??

(Yelling)
Saul!

[Painting shatters]

[Glass shatters]

[Message ping]

[Message ping]

[Dialing]

Tessa! Saul died!

What?

He's dead Tessa!

What happened?

I don't know how it happened,
we'd just started doing it.

Where are you?

In a room at the Bayside.

Okay, you need to calm down.
Do you hear me?

How am I supposed
to be calm?

Aren't you supposed
call the paramedics

when someone is dead,
or the police?

No, you call no one.
Do you understand me?

You want to make a
name for yourself

in this business,
don't you?

You don't want to be
known as the girl

that some famous rich
guy collapsed on.

What about his family?
He has a son.

He has grandkids, Tessa!
I should call them.

And say what?

"Hi, I was doing your
dad in a hotel room

when he keeled
over and died?"

Listen to me, Rochelle.

You did nothing wrong.

Of all the
ways to go,

this would be the top
of any guy's list.

You're not his wife,
you're not his mistress,

you're not even
his girlfriend.

You had an arrangement.
That's it.

That's all it was.

I know.

Walk away.
Just walk away.

[Dialing]

9-1-1, what is
your emergency?

Is someone there?

Hi, yes.

My...

my friend just died.

What's your
location, please?

Remember finals
are next week.

I'll have office hours
on Thursday.

Professor, I wanted
to let you know

that I won't be able to go
to Florence this summer.

It's just too much
of a financial stretch.

Well I understand. I'll contact
the program administrator

and let her know.

You should follow up
in a few days

and see if you can
get a full refund.

I'll do that.

I appreciate everything
you've done for me.

I'm gonna work really
hard this summer,

save up, see if maybe
I can re-apply next year.

I'm happy to go to
bat for you again.

Thank you so much.

[Soft instrumental music]

[Mailbox creaks open]

[Mailbox door closes]

[Guitar rock music]

Hey Sean!

Hey Katie!

Someone in your frat
blanketed my dorm in flyers.

Yeah, they tend
to do that.

So, where's the keg?

Here, let me show you.

I could use a
refill myself.

Okay.

That's so weird.

Sean told me Katie is totally
into that Sugar Baby stuff.

What?

Oh, hey.

What, you don't
have the guts

to say something
directly to my face?

What the hell?
You're telling people?

Jackass.

Katie! Katie wait!

Do you know anything
about that?

What?

About people calling
me a Sugar Baby?

My account at the bookstore
is confidential, you-

It's not like that,
okay? Listen!

What?

Look, I don't know...
okay.

I saw you at Sky House
the other night,

I mentioned it
to Cory,

there's rumors
flying around about

what college girls
are doing there.

You should have had the
balls to just ask me!

I didn't know
anything! Okay?

Yes, there was
a guy okay?

Someone I fell for!

But it doesn't happen
like you think.

It just isn't
that way...

You don't owe me
an explanation.

Wow! I guess you're life
doesn't get complicated.

That must be nice.

Why don't you admit
you're as judgemental

as the rest of them?

I came after you,
didn't I?

Yeah and I bet now,
you wish you hadn't.

But you know what,
that's my fault.

I probably should've waited
till you were drunk.

Because you do better
with girls then, right?

t took
my statement.

Said they might have more
questions for me later,

but for now, yeah.

Did you ever talk to
any of his family?

They wanted nothing
to do with me.

You called it.

You didn't listen
to me.

and that,
I didn't call.

I couldn't just
walk away, Tessa.

I miss him.

I understand,
Rochelle.

You found somebody you
really cared about.

Yeah last night,
Bruce took me-

Wait, what
happened to Ken?

That's what
I'd like to know.

Anyway, I went
out with Bruce

and we're at this
really nice restaurant

but all I could think was,
this would be great

if I could be here with
someone I really loved.

Well, there are lots of men
with lots of money girls,

who will whisk you away.

Three cocktails and
a shiatsu massage,

and you'll forget about
all your troubles.

I'm going back to being
a starving student.

And Tessa, you should
focus on your modeling.

We don't need them.

[Glasses clink]

[Knock at the door]

Katie?

Dad, what are
you doing here?

I, uh... I took
the day off.

You didn't have
to do with that.

I told mom I was
renting a U-Haul

to get all
my stuff home.

I'm not here
to help you move.

You drove six hours
to tell me that?

You really could
have called.

All right,
okay look.

I will help
you move.

Okay...?

But not until
you graduate.

Wait a second, you want me
to graduate Montlake?

You never wanted
me to come

to this college
in the first place.

You were right,
I was wrong.

Okay? I'm sorry.

I can't stay here, dad.

People, they know.

Oh so you're just gonna
run away because of it?

You're going to drop out

before you even finish
taking your finals?

I've made a mess
of everything.

I don't know why I thought
it was a good idea

to transfer to Montlake
in the first place.

Well from what I've
been told by you,

is that this school
has the best

art history department
in the country.

But I guess you can always
switch to accounting

at Worthington Community and
take over my bookkeeping.

Unless you want to start
crawling under

people's houses to
fix a sewer line?

I think you're
forgetting I've been

in a crawl space
on a hot day.

Wasn't that my job
one summer?

That's right it was.

I'd like to think that's
what turned you away

from plumbing and
towards art history.

(Katie)
Dad was right, as usual.

I decided to come back to
school after winter break.

And I was glad I did.

Yes, the whispers and stares
continued for awhile...

but it was worth it.

Not just for my studies...

but to reconnect
with old friends.

Hey, Katie!

Hi!

How was your break?

Pretty good.

Hey, how was
the Congo?

Complicated.

Oh yeah?

Yeah.

Life can get that
way sometimes.

It sure can.

Hey listen,
you were right.

I was pretty judgemental
about all that stuff

that happened
before the break.

Guess being ten thousand
miles away can kind of

put things into
perspective over there.

Thanks for that.

Hey, do you want to grab
a coffee sometime, or...?

For sure, I want to hear
more about Africa.

All right. Well
what about now?

Let's do it!

I'm gonna stop by
the quad really quick

to get some money
from the ATM.

No, it's my treat.

You sure?

Yep that's the deal.
I'm buying.

All right!

[Soft piano music]

(Katie)
bumped into someone else too.

A little later
that semester.

Hey!

It was a little tense
at first.

hadn't seen any of the
ugar Babies in a long time.

But it was really good
to see Tessa again.

We got caught up on a lot
of things, like Sasha...

After all her time
in the sugar bowl,

Sasha found her on-again
off-again guy, Ken,

was now on-again.

Strange, yes...

ut even stranger was what
essa told me about Rochelle.

She got called to a special
reading of Saul's will.

Where she found out that Saul
left her a tiny nest egg,

enough to pay for her MBA,
and then some.

And as for Tessa...

she took the plunge and moved
to New York to pursue modeling.

Not that she gave up
her sweet tooth

for the Sugar Baby
lifestyle.

Tessa was, and
I guess still is,

y.
who will always go back
sugar bowl for a new guy.

ope she'll be able to get
she really wants that way.

I love her and
wish her the best.

Then there's me.

I'm finally going
to Florence,

on a post-graduate
scholarship this summer.

Sean says he
may come visit.

But either way, I'll be living
my dream, my fantasy.

And not playing a part
in someone else's.

The end.
