Crêpes Suzette.

And for you, Crêpes Suzette,
Katie Otto-style.

Which means?

I added Cheetos
for crunch. Mm.

Who ever thought that
the richest kid in Westport

would be cooking
for other people?

That's because of me.

-I'm the douche whisperer.
-Mm.

Mmm!

This is amazing!

What's on the menu
for tonight?

I can't make dinner
tonight.

My dad's swinging
through town

and taking me
to Chez Pierre.

Did you tell him about your plan
to go to culinary school?

Oh, yeah.
He's very excited for me.

I may be the first Bradford
to get a callus.

Mm!

You're not gonna finish?

I'm a little anxious.

It's the town council
election today.

And I think I can win
this thing

and make some real changes
here in Westport.

Well, you tried
to change me.

How's that working out
for you?

Are you ready, Oliver?
Big day. SATs.

I'm gonna nail them.

Between my high scores,
Teen Help Line,

and that Gyftee app
I started with Trevor,

I'll be a shoo-in
for Harvard.

You sure you're okay?

You seem to be
developing a rash.

It's a confidence rash.

And you're sweating.

-From excitement!
-Mm.

Can't take a test
without a good breakfast.

Thanks, but my stomach's
a little upset.

Oh.

Gonna go have a little

Greg thinks that
he can change Westport,

don't change.

Except their noses.

And their boobs.

Uh, and their legs.

I had my inner thighs
liposuctioned.

They're the highway

That's what

Ooh, Walker,
who is that hunk

in that hunky suit
hunkin' up the place?

Wait, you don't know?
That's Doyle Bradford.

Cooper's dad?

Our kids have been
best friends for years,

but I have never
even met him.

You'd think with all that money
and those good looks,

he'd be
a son of a bitch...

and you'd be correct.

And everyone
kisses his ass

'cause he's the richest man
in town,

but I come from money,
so it doesn't impress me.

I think he's waiting
to be seated.

What? Oh. So sorry,
Mr. Bradford.

Hold on.
Get up. Get up!

Get up! Get up!
Get up! Get up! Get up!

Go, go, go, go, go,
go, go, go, go!

I love your tie.

-You should go say hi.
-Katie: Right?

I mean, we're
practically in-laws.

Oh, ask him
who does his hair.

I'm not going to ask him
who does his hair.

Alright.

So I bought the island
across the way,

walks the dogs.

Hi.
I don't mean to interrupt.

Oh, I parked

You can just leave

I don't work for

I'm Oliver's mother.

Your son lives
at our house.

Oh, right. Connie.

Yes, thank you for
looking after Cooper.

He loves being
at your house.

He says it's like camping.

It's my pleasure.

I am so proud of Cooper.

He is really starting to
figure out

his direction in life.

I don't know what
there is to figure out.

Cooper's gonna go to Harvard,
then business school,

then join me
at Bradford Industries,

and if he tries
a hostile takeover,

I will destroy him.

But I'll be
secretly proud.

Cooper hasn't mentioned
any other plans?

No.
Hm.

But I mainly communicate
with him through Brad.

Let me ask Brad.
Brad?

Nope, no more plans.
