My name is Dt. King. I need to ask you a few questions if you don’t mind.

Where’s detective Miller?

Detective Miller had to recuse himself from the case, appears you all were having an affair.

My lawyers going to be here any minute.

Yeah well, you can tell your lawyer that you're being held on a pandering warrant

from New York. I'll have the extradition papers ready for your attorney when she get here.

-What does that mean? -You're gonna have to ask your lawyer.

You look like shit.

Why am I here?

Megan got arrested.

Max said she’s going to be out on bail.

That's what we thought. They're keeping her on a warrant from New York.

That changes everything now.

She can't get bail and if they send her back she could be gone for months.

more if they convict her.

That’s why you're here.

Max said you're a great problem solver,

and you were studying business at Yale.

I didn't tell you that.

I had a friend check you out.

So the two of you want me to be a pimp?

-No -Yes pimp daddy Jacob.

This is a business,

and we want you to run it.

No, no way.

We need you.

-Why do you need me? -I have to keep the girls working but I

can't do it by myself.

Max says you're a problem solver, that's what Megan did.

Alright so, what would my job is specifically?

I would run the bookings as usual. Max would deal with the drivers,

and you would be the face.

you would help hire new girls and solve problems.

You know how to get things done.

The fact that you’re not from, this world,

makes you perfect to run the company, until Megan gets out.

If I do this, I want to change a few things.

First, if a girl doesn't want to see a client then she doesn’t have to see him.

Second, I have something in my life right now, that I really need to spend time on.

So I need the time to do that.

And third, I want to hire someone that I know, to be here with you

on the booking side, so that I know what's going on.

And if you two are ok with that, then I’m in.

Ok.

Fine with me.

Let's make some money.

Good morning.

Hi Gus.

I don’t get the rent yesterday.

Oh. oh, I’m sorry, I’m so sorry. Come on in.

It’s a little early to be drinking, isn’t it?

Can you, can you give me a receipt?

I can, go get a receipt.

Ok.

Well, I’ll give you the money, when you get me a receipt.

You know, some of the other tenants, have been saying somethings about you.

The late hours you keep.

The sexy outfits you wear.

And?

Don’t take this the wrong way but,

Are you a working girl?

Excuse me?

I just thought, we could come to an arrangement?

Save you some money.

So, this is what you want hu?

You can’t even afford me Gus.

And even if you could I would never touch you because you're disgusting so

get fuck out of my house and don't come back without a receipt.

You Mexican girls are fierce.

I’m Spanish your prick,

get the fuck out!

Jacob hunter,

Where the hell have you been?

Sorry, your brother told me where to find you.

I figured.

Nobody could get a hold of you.

I had to disappear for a while.

Why?

You’re a pimp?

Way to go, Ivy league.

Do I look like pimp?

You do look different, I mean, What’s up with the hair?

I need your help.

With what?

I want you to come and work with me, for a few weeks.

Fuck you.

Not as an escort.

I need help running things on the inside, while I'm out taking care of problems.

Where are you working now?

For one of my dad's friends. I'm an executive assistant.

Do you like it?

Are you kidding me? It fucking sucks. The money sucks and it's boring.

Well this definitely isn’t boring.

What would I do?

Hey so,

I was talking to Spits about your situation.

You know, with your, ex-boyfriend.

Yeah, I know, my ex-boyfriend.

You know I was thinking, maybe I could help?

We don’t have to talk about it.

It’s ok, I’m fine.

What happened?

Well, I came to LA to marry him,

I met him in Spain and we had the most amazing week together.

We talked on the phone almost, every day,

yeah, almost every day for a year.

But, when I got here,

I found out he was married.

So, I ended it.

I'm sorry.

I’m ok, it's ok.

I wanted to stay and was looking for work,

and then I found Megan.

Uh, you know, we've only known each for a little while but,

If it would help, I could marry you. you know, for a green card.

No, no don’t take this the wrong way Frank, You’re sweet, you’re so sweet.

But, come on. No one want to marry a drunk whore.

-That's not true. -Yes it is.

I'm ok with it. I’m ok.

if you had your green card you could get any job.

What did you do in Spain, before you came here?

I worked in a cafe, for two years.

Ok so, you can get a job in any cafe. With your accent, people would love you.

We should get going.

Yeah, alright.

Screening is the key. We don't send a girl unless we know who the client is,

and can verify him. We like regulars and so do the girls so, we cater to their needs.

What about the police?

We charge for companionship, not for sex or any sex act.

But they want sex.

Most do, but you would be surprised how many just want to feel relevant.

Being seen with a pretty girl who tends to your every need is empowering.

But they want sex.

Sure. How do you know Jacob?

We grew up together.

You two ever had a thing?

I don’t kiss and tell.

Good, that's what this job is all about.

- Good morning. - Hey.

We got a problem.

What?

Uh, there’s another agency talking to our girls.

The lady that runs it, she’s a fucking bitch.

She’s been talking to our girls trying to take them away from us.

Does Vanessa know about this?

Yeah she’s setting up a meeting with you and the girls right now so you can go talk to them.

Also, did she mention to you about Michelle?

I’m taking care of Michelle.

You know, there’s been a lot of drama going on since Megan’s been in jail.

That’s what I wanted to talk to you about.

What do you mean she’s not coming back?

She could be gone for a week, but she might also be gone for a few months.

I need to keep working.

I don’t think I should give up 40 percent without Megan.

Our cut’s only 30, and we’re gonna pay the drivers.

Vanessa’s gonna be running the books as usual,

and Max is gonna be dealing with the drivers.

What are you gonna do?

- I’m making a few changes. - Like what?

If you don’t wanna see a client, then we don’t have to book him for you.

That’s what Megan said when I first started working for her, but she would slow my bookings if I ever said no.

Not with me running things.

So you want to be my pimp?

I’m not a pimp.

Alright, so what do you do?

I’m here to make sure everyone stays booked and gets paid.

Well that’s a pimp.

I need to talk to you about last night.

A client said that you showed up drunk and puked all over him.

It was the end of a long night.

Lets keep this simple.

You’re working tonight, so you need to show up sober and keep the client happy.

I’ll try, but I fuck better when I’m drunk.

If you can’t do this then we’ll give your clients to another girl.

Okay.

What was your game plan again?

I’m going to reason with her.

You’re going to reason with her.

She doesn’t reason. She doesn’t listen.

Let’s just keep it simple. At the end of the day, it’s just about money right?

Of course it’s about making money. She’s just complicated.

You asked me to do this because you like the way I do things.

I need you to trust me.

Okay, you’re right, you’re right.

You could’ve called, Max.

I didn’t expect you to pick it up.

Who’s the friend?

I’m running Private Sales.

We’d like to talk with you.

She put a boy in charge?

What is your name?

I'm Jacob Hunter.

-I hear you’ve been talking to our - Do you know who I am?

What do you want?

Our girls work for Private Sales, and no one else.

I know how you treat your girls.

You do?

My girls will not come and work for you. They deserve better.

Your girls? Your girls are whores.

And you’re just a little boy.

I’m willing to make you an offer.

Get out of my house.

I would consider listening to my offer.

You know what you look like?

I'm gonna take all your girls, and there’s nothing you can do about it.

And my girls, won't slit their wrists.

Cheers.

- Calm down, calm down. - Get out of my house.

Get out.

Relax, relax!

Get out of my house.

Just relax.

Jacob!

Jacob!

Look what I found!

All the girls passports.

Did I fuck up?

I don’t know, but if you did, we’ll know.

We're gonna need more drivers.

No shit.

She's scared to talk with us.

Tell her that. this morning they, found Roxy dead in her pool.

Hey Rox.

I brought you something.

She said Roxy’s been making the girls work to get their passports back but it never happens.

Tell her that we wanna make her and the other girls an offer.

If they still want to work, they can come and work for us.

What if they don’t want to escort anymore?

Well now that they have their passports they can do whatever they want with them.

She’s going to talk with the other girls.

Thanks for coming today.

Jacob’s going to be running the business a while until Megan gets back.

I’m here to talk to you about how we’re gonna handle clients that don’t pay.

Michelle?

Michelle?

Michelle?

Oh god, Jesus Christ.

Michelle?

Michelle? Come on honey, you got a job.

Hey, wake up.

Come on.

Okay, okay.

Jesus, you’re covered in puke.

Hi Nahne

Oh my gosh. What did you do to your hair?

I got it cut.

Have you talked to your sister?

Yeah.

She came and saw me two months ago. Why didn’t you come and see me?

Can I ask you something that’s a bit odd?

Of course.

Was my dad a drinker? I mean, was he hiding something from me?

Your dad was not a drinker.

When he was killed, they found a scotch bottle next to him, I just didn't,

In nineteen years I never saw him drink.

Well the two weeks before they were killed was there any like,

strange people around the house? Did any of their clients stop by? Were they acting strange?

There was a man that came here, and was asking me a bunch of questions.

About what?

What I saw, what I knew, and he was just being very pushy.

Did you tell the police?

I thought he was police, but then I started seeing him everywhere.

I’d be at the grocery store, and there he was.

I’d be at the car wash, and he was there.

What did he look like?

Tall, very tall.

He had a mustache, white hair, he looked like a cop.

I’m really sorry that I didn’t come to see you earlier.

Frank? What are you doing here?

- No, we did not do that. -Okay.

You left the door open, I came to check on you, you,

I had to clean the puke off your face and bring you in here and watch you sleep so you wouldn’t pull some sorta Hendrix thing on me.

- I’m sorry. -You’re fired, you got fired.

I got fired?

Yeah, I’m sorry.

-Really? -Yeah.

I fucked up Frank.

-I really fucked up. -Yeah.

What am I gonna do?

Well for starters, you might wanna take a shower because you smell like barf.

Could you stay with me please?

-Of course. -Okay.

Okay.
