04x10 - What I Wouldn't Give for Love

Post by bunniefuu »

Luca, what happened to you?

Um, this guy on the
street's, like, been harassing me,

you know, just, like,
trying to shake me down.

You can just
stay with me in my loft.

We'll figure something out.

Please don't leave town.

I think I have to.

I realized that
my fear is most crippling

when I don't face it.

And I didn't dance
for anybody but me.

So what did you
really think?

That was the most g*dd*mn-Davia-Moss
thing you could've done.

I will have to buy both
companies to merge them,

but you four will remain as
the board and sole partners.

I'll make the offer
to Jackie.

If you still
have feelings for Evan,

we don't want to be
standing in the way of...

True love.

You're never gonna have peace

unless you know what happened
to your sister.

- Jenna!
- Go, go!

I think
I'm in love with you.

I love you too.

We decided
to buy you a condo.

We do have one condition.
Give the baby up for adoption.
I'm her mother,
and I am keeping her.

How did dinner go?

I gotta admit
I'm a little nervous,

this being
our first official date.

- Well you know what we need then...
- Hmm?

...to break the ice.

To just get this over with.

♪ Hearing your heartbeat drum

♪ But you can't take it
with you ♪

♪ Even though
we're on the same street ♪

Davia?

It's so nice to meet you.
In person.

Internet introductions
can be so awkward.

Yeah, they are.

Well, come on in.
I'm glad you're here.

♪ I see you all alone

♪ Eyes aligned with no one

♪ In your car
I will remember ♪

♪ Not hearing
my heartbeat drum... ♪

But you promised.

I changed my mind.

♪ But you can't take it
with you ♪

Hi! So I'm back in LA

after being on tour
with Margaret Cho.

So are you looking for a closed
or an open adoption?

I think I would like
to meet the couple

who's going to raise my child.

So... open.

Okay. Great.

♪ Pa-pa-paa, pa-pa-pa-pa-pa

♪ Pa-pa-paa, pa-pa-pa-pa

♪ Then we'll find
our peace of mind ♪

♪ You and me, Bel Ami

♪ Pa-pa-pa, pa-paaa

So how does this work?

We swipe through baby names,

and it'll notify us
of those we match on.

Ooh, I've always really liked
the name Genevieve.

But then people will
just call her "Viv."

Yeah, that's a good point.
Mm.

Oh, okay, Estelle?

That sounds too Golden Girls.

Yeah, it kinda does.

Hey, guess what?

What?

We're having a baby
in eight weeks.

I know!

So...

now that you're not
seeing Dyonte anymore...

I have more time
to see you.

I do love it.

- Mmm.
- Hm-hmm.

But I do have a question.

Does this mean that you're
open to another relationship?

I guess if I met someone
I was interested in,

I might be open.

What are you thinking?

You need to get to work!

But I don't want
to get up!

You have to.

Hey, I thought
you were leaving town.

Hey. Hey, um...

I am as soon as I get
enough for a bus ticket.

Ivan's looking for you.

Thanks for the heads-up.

You've gotta stop doing that.

Sure, if you promise
not to bounce your knee.

Guys, I'm sure
we're gonna hear from Evan

about Revitalize soon.

Right?

Right.

Have you heard from him,
like, personally at all?

Uh... no.

You don't think
he changed his mind, do you?

Evan!

Ladies. Uh, women.

People.

Where have you been?
I never heard back from you.

Uh, we haven't heard.

- Is everything okay?
- What did Jackie say?

- Did she accept your offer?
- Is it bad news?

The news is... good.

Major points of the deal
are closed.

Oh, thank God!

You had us scared.

Not hearing from you.

I'm sorry,
I've been busy.

Well, thank you, Evan.

- Yeah, thank you.
- Thank you.

You don't have
to thank me.

Bulk Beauty
is a good investment.

Excuse me.

Evan.

You never responded
to my texts about talking.

About us?

Yes.

I don't think it's appropriate
for there to be an us,

now that we're
working together again.

If I'm gonna be hands-off,
then I should be

entirely... hands-off.

Correct?

Well, it's a little different.

But I guess you're right.

Hi! Sorry, I'm late.

My Coche driver
wanted to try a shortcut.

Heh.

You're doing me a solid
subbing in for Isabella,

so it's okay. Suit up.

Happy to help.

Looking forward
to seeing you in action.

Come on.

So what did you really think?

That was the most g*dd*mn-Davia-Moss
thing you could've done.

♪ Got everyone mesmerized

♪ High school jewel

♪ You're the curse now
and the prize... ♪

Well...

good night.

Good night.

♪ Put worth
before your purpose ♪

♪ But some things...

- Okay, so what happened?
- I don't know!

You know,
he walked me to my door

and we were just making eyes
at each other,

and then all of a sudden,
he said, "Well, good night."

Maybe he doesn't want
to be with me anymore.

I did choose somebody else.

Okay. Relax.

I don't think that's true.

But, Davia, you need
to tell him how you feel.

Okay. Yeah.
Yeah, you're right.

I'm gonna do that.
Today.

Okay.
Hey, don't forget that.

Thank you.

- Oh!
- Oh, my gosh. Wow.

Wow, forgot how tight
it is in here.

You get used to it.

So I was actually wondering
if, um, we could talk.

After work,
if you're not busy.

Not at all.

Uh, so what is all this for?

Oh, check out this review.

"Top ten pretentious food trucks
LA never needed."

Yeah, look at number one.

"I might have forgiven the
completely bougie toast concept,

had the food not been
so mediocre and forgettable."

- Oof!
- Exactly.

So I convinced
this dude, Ryan Jones,

to come back today.

So everything
has to be perfect.

- Excuse me!
- Hi, what can I get for you?

I'm actually here to meet with
Dennis about a review I wrote.

I'm Ryan Jones.

Not a dude.

Okay.
First up, the vegan cashew.

Hmm.

Hm.

Not bad.

Better than last time?

If you insist on hovering,

the least you can do
is sit down and join me.

Okay.

I saw that smile.
I saw that smile.

It's a solid seven out of ten.

Ooh, tough crowd!

God!

Uh, how long you've been
a food critic?

Only a few months.

Spent most of last decade
working as a corporate attorney.

Really?

Yeah, just woke up
one morning

and decided I couldn't
spend the rest of my life

chained to a high-rise
in Century City.

That sounds familiar.
Hence, the toast truck.

Let me...
Let me top you off.

- I think she's liking the food.
- Oh!

I think she's liking
more than the food.

Margaret absolutely
raves about you.

I have your entire career
laid out.

First, we get you
on the biggest stand-up stages.

Second, commercials
to get your face out there.

Then, a comedic sidekick role
in a movie.

Finally, we parlay that
into your own stand-up special.

How does that sound?

- That all sounds great!
- Great!

I'll start
by hip-pocketing you.

Great!

Uh, what does that mean?

Oh, it just means I don't have to
get the entire company on board

- and hold up the process.
- Mm.

This way, we can start
making things happen right away!

Okay. Amazing!

I'm excited
to be in your pocket!

Should I crawl in now?
Which pocket wants it?

Kidding.

You're so funny!

Hmm. I have to admit,

I was too harsh before.

I will make an addendum
to my review.

Much appreciated. Thank you.

Still think
the truck is pretentious.

Well, as long as
you like the food.

Well, all right.

If you need anything else.

Wow. Looks like you won her over
with your charm and your food.

And she gave you
her business card,

so she obviously wants you
to call her.

She does? For what?

For a date!

Come on, don't be coy.

You obviously liked her.

You should... call her.

Really?

- Why not?
- Hey, what was it

you wanted to talk
to me about after work?

Oh, just, um, you know,
what I'm going to do next,

work, career-wise.

I've just been
looking for a job.

It's not a big deal.

Thank you for meeting with me.

Malika speaks
very highly of you.

Well, I appreciate that.

What brings you here today?

I'm just
going through a lot.

Um, the pregnancy...

And my parents
aren't supportive.

Why aren't they supportive?

They don't think
I'm fit to be a mother.

Fit?

Ready.

And why do they think that?

I don't know.

At first, they insisted
I get an abortion.

And now that
it's too late for that,

they want me
to put my baby up for adoption.

What matters

is what you think.

Do you think you're ready
to be a mother?

Come in.

Hey.

Haven't seen you
up in The Coterie in a while.

Yeah, I have been busy.

Any update on Jenna?

What's there to update?

I think
she was pretty clear

when she said
she didn't wanna see me.

And when she did,
she ran, so.

Okay, well,

what if there was another
reason why she ran?

Like what?

I dunno,
maybe she's in trouble.

You know, I... I just can't
keep speculating

on what's going on
with Jenna.

You know, she wants
to cut all ties

from a really painful past,
and I get it.

Okay, but if that were true,

then why would she send your mom
postcards every year?

And why did she stop?

Look, I know
you're trying to help,

but I really need you
to let this go.

Please.

Okay.

Sorry.

A... And I'm sorry
I kissed you.

I shouldn't have done that.

Oh! No, that... that was...

I'm fine.

I just hope
that's not the reason

why you've been
hiding out down here.

I miss running into you.

Hey, you!
How was prenatal yoga?

Uh... good.

Did you have a chance

to swipe through any more
baby names on the app?

I didn't see
any more matches pop up.

Yeah, I did.

Weird. How can we
still not have any matches?

You didn't like Eloise?

It's just a little precious,
right?

I mean, wh... what about
something more neutral like Jessie?

Oi, Jessie was a mean girl
in high school.

Got it.
Jessie is out.

Um...

What about the main character
of your favorite movie?

WALL-E?

That's your favorite movie?

I mean, one of 'em.

Why? What's yours?

Probably The Matrix.

I've never seen
a Matrixmovie.

Wow! Okay, so we have
absolutely nothing in common.

I mean, you got to admit,

"Trinity Martinez" does sound
pretty cool, right?

Wow!

It's kind of bold of you to assume
she's gonna have your last name.

Oh, hey, I... I'm sorry.
I was just...

It's fine. It's fine.
I'm just... I'm tired.

And maybe we shouldn't talk
about baby names right now.

Okay. Sure.

All our brands
are in one place.

We've implemented
in-app analytics.

And provided
an in-app feedback channel.

And conducted a beta test.

And instead of Counter Pro,

our user interface
is called BB Me.

We've also added
an option for our customers

to connect virtually with
skincare and makeup experts.

I'm impressed.

Do you have any feedback?

None. You seem to have
covered all your bases.

And like I said,
this is your app,

I trust you completely.

Did you get the invite
to the launch party?

I did.

Thank you.

So you didn't say

whether you're coming
to the launch party.

I'll be there.

You promise?

Victory! Yes!

And the victor demands
the rest of the fries.

Ooh, speaking of fries,

do you wanna try that new
fusion spot on 5th this Saturday?

'Cause I hear that their
curry fries are incredible.

Ah, I can't.

I actually wanted
to talk to you about this.

I have a date.

Oh.

A date?

I... I just figured that,
you know, since you're poly,

that you wouldn't really mind.

But I think this
is a little different, though.

Like, if at the end of the day,

you wanna be in
a monogamous relationship,

then you dating someone else

could mean that we would
have to end at some point.

Right?

Yeah, I guess
it's a possibility.

But, hey, it's just a date.

It's starting to rain,
so we should get inside.

Like I
said, it's great to be back in LA

where a million dollars
gets you a second bedroom.

Thank you, Santa Clarita!

I... I'm Alice Kwan.

That was fantastic. Loved it.

And this is for you.

Uh, wait.
Um, what is this?

Your payment.

We went ahead
and we waived the adoption fee

and the cost of neutering.

But you're gonna wanna get
that respiratory infection

checked out right away.

- This is my... my payment?
- I love you. I love you.

I can't believe
we finally made it!

I think we should probably
cue up the launch soon.

But has anyone seen Evan yet?

Yeah, we shouldn't officially
do it until he's here, right?

Right.

He said he was coming.

I'm sure he'll be here.

Yeah.

So, um, where's Angelica?

- Workin'.
- Hm.

And seeing other people.

Oh... And how do you feel
about that?

I can't really ask her not to.

I'm just... I'm afraid
I might lose her.

Well, then don't sit back
and let that happen.

If you want to be with her,
you gotta go fight for her.

Oh! So how did the gig go?

I've left three messages
for my new manager,

and she hasn't called back!

So just call her again.

No! I already feel
like a stalker.

She represents you.
It's her job!

Actually,
she hasn't signed me.

She's just hip-pocketing me.

What does that mean?

I'm beginning to think it means, "I
don't really wanna represent you,

I just did Margaret Cho
a favor."

I just wish I could find a
manager who really believes in me!

I believe in you.

Why not let me
be your manager?

You're a dental hygienist.

That's your passion in life.

Look, Kwan,
all you really need

is someone
who believes in you enough

to take calls and not take no
for an answer.

And that someone is me!

Come on,
what do you have to lose?

Let's get you paid.

They paid me in cat!

Aw, is she still
in your loft?

No! I'm allergic.

I spent, like, all afternoon

looking for a different
no-k*ll animal rescue

that'll take her.

Smart. You won't have time
for a pet

because I got you another gig!

This one is at the Laurel Acres
Retirement Community

in Van Nuys!

Isn't this exciting? Van Nuys!

Yeah.

- Old people!
- In the valley.

I'll be right back.

Hey.

- Thanks for coming.
- Wouldn't miss it.

It's a big night for you.
Congratulations!

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- That's a be a...
- But it...

- Oh, I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry. You go.

- That's a really nice dress.
- Thank you.


Oh. Uh, can you excuse me
for a second?

Hey!

- Where are you going?
- I can't stay.

But you promised.

I changed my mind.

So... how do you feel
about Dennis' new girlfriend?

No, please!

I'd hardly call her
his girlfriend.

Wait, is that
what he called her?

No! But is it true
that you set them up?

I didn't set them up.

I simply encouraged him
to call her.

Why would you do that?

I didn't think
he would take the bait!

Well... Ugh, I guess
it was more of a test, really.

You know, just to see if
he was still interested in me

before I poured
my heart out to him.

And he failed.

Why are you still
playing these games?

Because I had just
truly felt confident in myself.

And then
this beautiful, charming,

age-appropriate woman
stepped up to the window!

And in an instant, I lost a
little bit of that confidence.

I just didn't want to risk
being rejected again.

Excuse me, if we could get
everyone's attention, please.

Go on.

Uh, we just wanted to say
a few words to you.

Um, first off,

thank you so much for such
an amazing turnout tonight.

Yeah, it's been a long and
challenging journey to get here.

Like a roller coaster.

I mean, there were days
we weren't sure we'd make it.

But we pulled through
and never gave up.

And we couldn't have done it

without the support
of our friends and family.

And each other.

I couldn't ask
for better partners

or friends.

Well, let's do this!

Okay, uh, Bulk Beauty app
officially launches in...

- Three.
- Two.

One!

Hey! Come, come.

Okay.

- Hi.
- Hi.

Sorry, I should've
called first.

I was just, um,
stopping by to say hi.

Oh, no worries.
Gillian had the same idea.

Malika, this is Gillian.

Oh, hi!
It's nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too.

Well...

can I get you
something to drink?

- Uh, sure. Yeah.
- Great.

I like your earrings.

Thanks.
I like yours too.

- Hey.
- Hey.

You okay?

I'm good.

Great.

Just... taking a break.

Taking a break?
Come on!

This is an incredible
accomplishment.

You should be out there
celebrating.

You're right.

I mean, this
is a pretty amazing party.

Mm-hmm.

Let's get drunk.

♪ You don't want me
the way that I want you ♪

♪ You don't need me

Hey.

How are you feeling?

I'm better.
Just a little tired.

How was the party?

It was nice.
You were missed.

Aw. I wish I could've
been there for Mariana.

Everyone understood.

So... we need
to come up with a name

or we're gonna have
to call our daughter "it."

I'm sorry I assumed the
baby would have my last name.

I'm sorry
I was snippy about it.

Why don't we
just hyphenate our names?

Yours can go first.
Tavez-Martinez?

That's a lot of "ez's."

Yeah. Yeah, I guess it is.

Or the baby could just have
your last name.

To be honest,

I don't want her
to have my parents' last name,

since they don't want
anything to do with me

or her.

What if I change
my last name to Martinez?

I... I'm just kidding.

Although it... it would
just make things a lot easier

if we all had
the same last name.

And it's not like you'd have to
marry me or anything like that.

It's just it's...
It's something to think about.

Or not even, I...

No, no. Um, I think
we should think about it.

For sure.

Yeah?

Yeah.

I can't believe it.

Mariana, last night was fun!

- Did you have fun?
- Yeah.

Oh, good.

And how about you?

Yeah. I had fun.

Good.
Glad we all had fun.

Speaking for myself,
I enjoyed the swag,

but the party,
not so much.

Luca.

Hey.

Hey!

I was unhoused for...

a while.

I was living in my car.

I used to park
near The Coterie and...

Alice got to know me

and started bringing me
coffee in the mornings.

And then she...
let me use the showers.

Ultimately,
she split her loft

to give me a home.

What is this?

Your new home.

If you want it.

What did you do?

I just had them
put up some drywall

and made a new loft.

Mine was way too big anyway.

Thank you so much.

It was hard for me
to accept help.

But... once I had a home

and I didn't have
to spend my days

just figuring out
how to survive,

I was able to get a job.

I went back to school.
I finished my degree.

I was just so...

damn lucky
that Alice befriended me.

Saw me, even.

Yeah, that's not the story
for most people out here.

No, it's not.

Because I said yes
to being helped,

I mean, I'm...
thriving today.

That could be
your story too.

You have a home
at The Coterie.

If you just...

say yes.

Hey.

Listen, I'm really sorry
that I yelled at you to get out.

I didn't realize
that you were a friend.

I hope you're here to stay.

If you'll have me.

We got you.

- Of course, we will.
- Absolutely!

Welcome!

Luca, please eat.

- Do you like eggs?
- I love them.

So, Kelly,
how many swag bags

did you make off with
last night?

Under 20.

Speaking of under 20,

who is that oddly age-appropriate
chick you were with last night?

You don't get smart with me.

Oh, come on.

Luca, don't pay them any mind.

How are you?

Great.

I'm working
and living on a farm.

And I've never been happier

or more at peace.

So, uh, why did you run from
me at the farmers' market?

I was just surprised
to see you.

And in truth,
my peace depends

on cutting all ties
from the past

and our upbringing.

Hm-hmm. Yeah.

I mean, I left
all that behind too.

You were the one
that gave me

the courage to leave.

Do you still talk to them?

Uh, Dad, no.

Mom, it's tough.

I... I try to have
compassion for her.

But she... she called me

when she didn't get
a postcard from you

on her birthday this year.

And, I... I mean,
I didn't even know

that you guys still had
some type of contact.

I stopped because I realized
it wasn't healthy for me,

engaging at all.

And honestly,

seeing you brings up

a lot of the old...
bad feelings.

I'm sorry, I didn't...
You know, I didn't...

That wasn't my intention.

I don't mean to hurt you,

but I don't want to
have a relationship.

That's why I asked you
to meet me.

Just to assure you
that I'm okay

and to ask you to stop
trying to contact me.

Okay.

I'll, uh... I'll respect
your boundaries.

I love you.

And I wish you
a happy and healthy life.

And I hope you find
the peace that I found.

Thanks.

Goodbye.

It's so nice to meet you.
In person.

Internet introductions
can be so awkward.

Yeah, they are.

Well, come on in.
I'm glad you're here.

Sure.

Can I get you
something to drink?

Uh, water would be great.

This is my son, Elliot.

Elliot, this is Davia.

She's gonna be
your home school teacher.

It's nice to meet you.

Elliot...

say hello.

Elliot.

Hi.

He's a little shy at first
with everyone.

Oh, no, it's fine.
We'll... We'll be fine.

- I'll get you water.
- Oh, yeah, thanks.

All the paperwork
is in this packet,

and I've also included some
prospective parents' letters.

So if you see something
that you like,

um, I'll arrange them
to give you a call.

And if that goes well,

then of course the next step
would be to meet in person

and then go from there.

My cell phone number
is also in there, okay?

Uh, and I am available
to you 24/7.

Isabella, I've been doing
this for over 20 years.

And I'm gonna be there
every step of the way.

Okay?

Do you have any questions?

- No. Not at the moment.
- Okay.

Well, it was a pleasure
to meet you.

Thank you.

- And we'll talk soon. Yeah?
- Mm-hmm.
