Post by bunniefuu »

[vibrant music playing]

You know this is like one
of three Japantowns in all of the US?

How do you know all this stuff?

-I'm such a nerd.
-You're, like, facts after facts.

It's amazing.

Oh my God, this reminds me of childhood.

Do you remember like all the Hello Kitties
or like Sailor Moon?

[Kane] I want this!

It's super cute.

-I'll buy it for you.
-Thank you!

Do we need to get
a stuffed animal for Kelly?

-[Kelly] Why do I need a stuffed animal?
-[Christine] To cuddle with?

[Kane] I found you something, Kelly.

I found…
I found Kelly something! Christine!

[laughing]

Kelly!

That's good luck.

Or should we buy this for Anna
'cause she needs…?

-[Kelly] Let's give it to Anna.
-Anna has a lot of those.

-Organic banana. That's you.
-[laughing]

Look, it matches your outfit.

-Let me get it. Let me get it.
-No, no, no.

-You can't buy your own banana.
-Yeah, you can.

It's bad luck.

-We should get this for Kevin.
-[Kelly] Like a blow-up doll?

-Do you have, um, sex dolls?
-Oh my gosh.

[Kane] We have a friend
that really needs a sex doll.

-I feel like he has enough…
-[Christine] Doesn't he have Kim?

-Is he getting much out of that situation?
-I have no idea what's going on.

What's going on with them?

They should just bang it out
and get it over with.

-[Kane] Kevin bangs everything.
-We all know that.

-Have evidence?
-I brought him to this event.

And he met this girl at the event,
and they just went, and they just left.

-Oh!
-That seems like him.

-That's like a one-hour stand.
-Oh, wow.

Did she hop on his skateboard?

[Kane speaking Japanese]

-What does that mean?
-"How much is this?"

-Not my purse!
-[laughing]

[speaking Japanese]

[Kelly] Ooh, look! [gasps]

-Ooh.
-[Kane gasps]

[Christine] Have you guys tried octopus
ba*ls before? Kind of like fish ba*ls.

[Kane] Look, look!

-"I want to always be successful in life."
-[Christine] Aw, that's sweet.

[Kane] Can we make a wish?

Kelly wants ten boyfriends.

I don't want ten, just want one.

-Oh sh*t, I'm ruining peoples' wishes!
-Oh no, you took…

Christine, you took someone's wish away!

"I wish to one day
make a living off my art."

-You took this person's life away.
-[laughing]

-You're such a b*tch!
-[Christine] Oh my God.

-Aw, man.
-[Kelly] There you go.

[koto playing]

This place is really cute.
I've never been here.

-What is this place?
-They've got reindeers.

I used to play that when growing up.
My mom used to make me play this.

-[Yasmine] What is that?
-It's called zheng. Like guzheng.

-Yasmine! How are you?
-Yeah, you guys met last time.

-[Yasmine] You look divine, by the way.
-Thank you so much.

I'm really excited about today.

Recently, I have some great stuff
that's been going on in my life,

and, you know,
I feel every achievement in life

shouldn't be celebrated alone.

It should be celebrated with good friends.

So what better way
to share this news with my friends

than to have a really awesome
vegan dim sum party.

[screams]

-[Kelly] Hi, Kim!
-[Kane] How's Vegas?

-It was fun. I'm still hungover.
-I wanna come.

Please. [laughs]

-Christine! Oh my gosh! Welcome!
-This is so beautiful.

[Kane] Hi, Leah. That is so cute on you.

-How are you? Good to see you.
-How are you?

[Kelly] Hi, Kevin!

Oh, I wanted you
to meet my girlfriend, Yasmine.

-This is Kevin.
-What's up, Yas?

-[Yasmine] This is so cute, Kane.
-[Kane] This store, Gentle Monster.

They're one of the most famous
sunglasses stores in Korea.

Wait, I get to eat dim sum
and wear sunglasses?

-Girl. All right, Vegas, here we come!
-Naughty girl.

[laughing]

Guys, why don't we sit
and have some bubble tea!

[Guy] Are we assigned?

Yeah, so, Christine,
why don't you sit beside me and then--

-[Christine] Are you sure?
-[Kane] Yeah.

[Kevin] Are you sitting next to me,
Kim Lee?

-You sure you're there?
-[Kevin] Apparently I'm sitting here.

Okay.

So, um, for tonight,
we're having an all-dim-sum menu,

dim sum and truffles.

[cheering]

-Keep the truffle coming.
-[Christine] We're rubbing off on him.

[Yasmine] What about white truffle?

White truffle is too expensive.

-[Yasmine] Have you tried it?
-[Kevin] Yeah.

-Okay.
-With Anna.

-Oh, okay.
-It was so much.

[Japanese music playing]

-[Kane] That's black truffle.
-[Christine] Thank you.

[Kevin] Did you meet Yasmine, Kim?

Yeah, we met.

-You know Kelly's friend.
-We met earlier.

[Yasmine] You have a bit of gold
on your lips.

[Kevin] Let me get it for you.

Don't rub off my lipstick.

[Yasmine] Yeah, you gotta tap it,
like tap it, you know, like that.

This is what you don't eat
on a first date. [laughs]

I'll remember that.

[Christine] You guys haven't gone
on a first date yet.

-No, not yet.
-No, not yet.

[laughing]

Just wanna thank you guys for coming
'cause I have a surprise.

[Kim] What?

The past year,
I've sold two houses successfully.

-Nice.
-[Kane] Thank you.

And you know, my dad felt like, you know,

it's finally time for,
you know, his son to settle.

I got my keys to my new apartment!

[cheering]

[Kim] To new friendships.

We're moving in!

[laughing]

[Kane] This is vegan rich, you guys.

[Christine] Thank you.

Let's do a housewarming party together.

Mine's not done yet.

I think mine has spirits still.

[man] But your place is brand-new.
How can it have spirits?

[Kane] It used to…
It's a very famous building, right?

A lot of celebrities live there.

And I just felt shivers when I walked in.

[Kim] Same feeling I have
when I walked into Anna's--

Anna's house has five, six spirits.

Why is her fountain black?
There's like black water in there.

Did you see that when we were there?

I think that's just the gardeners
not showing up for a couple of years.

[all laugh]

[Kane] That's Anna forgetting to pay.

-This kind of looks like me.
-[Yasmine] It's so filling.

[laughs]

Did you have an Afro, as a young kid?

No, but I had muscles like that.
This looks like my mom--

[Yasmine] So you don't
have muscles anymore?

Whoa!

I'm not even flexing.

-You serious? You're not even flexing?
-I'm not… Now I'm flexing.

Excuse me, you're flirting with my man.

-Wait, I'm your man?
-Just joking. [laughs]

-I'm joking.
-Are you?

Why are you being so awkward about it?

[Kim] Yasmine's sh**ting
her shot with Kevin.

I'm like, "Girl."

"Damn, you thirsty, huh?"

[laughs]

It's all right. You need a little more.

I'm gonna… Somebody who enjoys it.

Somebody who enjoys my work.

Wait, is there really something…

[Kevin] It's complicated.

[whispers] Do they have alcohol here?

[laughing]

How is your, um…
How is your modeling career going?

Awful.

-Really?
-[Kevin] But it's getting better.

I have a new manager, and then he has
a possible job for me lined up.

Doing what?

Sunglass model?

[Kim] You look…
Doesn't he look hot right now? [laughs]

-[Kevin] Ready?
-I'll take a picture for you.

Here I come, Tom Ford.

[Yasmine] Deep in thought.

-What are you thinking about?
-[Kevin] I'm thinking of Kim.

-[laughing] You are thinking about food.
-[Kevin] I am hungry.

[laughing]

[Kane] Do you guys…? Who knows Alex here?

Cherie's ex?

-[Yasmine] I know Alex.
-[Kane] You do? Alex?

-[Yasmine] I do.
-You know Alex?

I met him, like a couple of times.

[Kane] What do you know of…?

He didn't have positive things
to say about Cherie.

You know, I haven't personally
met her, so, you know…

-What did Alex say about Cherie?
-[Kelly] He used the "C-word."

[Yasmine] Yeah, he…
I obviously told Kelly.

Gossip spreads like herpes in this group.

If one thing happens to one person,

or one person says something
to one person,

you better believe everyone's
gonna know really quickly.

The "C-word"?

We don't know,
and we're just guessing now.

Let's just move on, enjoy our dinner.

Thank you, Kane, celebrating Kane,

and Cherie can explain it
once she wants to explain to us,

and she wants… I don't know.

I just wanna know the truth.
There's so many lies around going on.

Who she really is.

I don't f*cking judge people,
whatever they did.

I wish she told us as a friend.

I just feel lied to,
and that's just, that's it.

[FaceTime ringing]

[chimes]

Hey. Damn, you look good.

Oh, whoa, look at you!

[laughs] I know. What's up?

-You look so cute.
-[laughs]

-Are you naked?
-Kinda. You wanna see?

[laughs] What is this, OnlyFans?

[both laugh]

I'd be damn good at it. I think.

Let me see your bed sheets.

Oh it's nice, it's orange… Oh wait.

No, that's something else.
Kim. Stop looking at that.

[laughs]

[chuckles]

S'up?

Nothing. Just wanted to talk
to you for a little bit. See your face.

[Kim laughs]

I did!

Whatever.

-Had a good time at Kane's party with you.
-It was all right.

At one point it seemed like you were
a little bothered about something.

-No!
-Hot and bothered. Yeah, you were.

When?

Yasmine, when I started talking to her,

like, I noticed that little
territorial thing going on.

-I was just messing around.
-I don't think you were.

You were like,
"Yo, that's my man you talking to."

[Kim laughs]

Oh, I couldn't stand Kim in the beginning.

I just thought she was
some spoiled Malibu brat,

who just does DJing for fun.

And then when I went back
to South Carolina

to go find her birth father,
she softened up.

She let me into her eyes.

I could see in her eyes that she really
was super grateful, and that she was, um…

kind of attracted to me in some weird way.

You liked it. It turns you on, huh?

[Kevin] It kind of sounded good,
didn't it?

You like controlling women, I see.

[laughing]

[clears throat] Anyway, look,
when you said that,

I actually thought to myself,

I was like, "Man, you know what? Maybe…"

Yeah, like,

Yeah, I think we… I think we should
really go out and do something,

you know, together, just me and you.

[soft guitar playing]

Me and you?

-Yeah.
-No Kane?

Of course no Kane.

'Cause then that's no longer me and you,
it's me, you, and Kane.

Nobody else.

So is it a date,
or are we hanging out? I don't get this.

Uh, call it what you will.

[laughs] Can you stop eating for once?

[laughing]

How do you think
I can keep this, you know?

Plus, you're not supposed
to eat in bed like that.

Why not?

Oh my God, I got some on the sheets.

Damn it.

Okay, look, I wanna pick you up.

With what? Your skateboard?

No. A rental car. I'll rent one.

Do you have a driver's license?

Of course I do.

Okay.

And where we going?

A road trip.
It's gonna be a surprise though.

I think it'd be fun. Yeah.

Are you trying to sell me for money?

Why would I sell you to anybody?
I want you for myself.

It'll be cool because,
like, if we can get through this,

then we can get through anything.

-All you have to do is show up.
-That's it?

That's it.

-Yes.
-Yes!

[laughing]

I actually think Kim and I
are really compatible for each other.

We have so much in common.

[Kim] Go put on a shirt.

And wash your sheets.

I can do that,
but I'm not putting a shirt on.

[Kim laughs]

[Kevin] The only concern that I have
with me and Kim is our lifestyle choices.

She should see who I really am,
not who I'm trying to be.

This is who I am.

I eat food in my bed in my underwear.

-Bye.
-[Kevin] See ya.

[sighs]

Yes.

[vibrant music playing]

[Yasmine] Hi!

-God, your house is so pretty.
-[Kane] Jaime, this is for you.

How are you?

-[Jaime] Are you serious?
-Yeah, I'll send…

[woman] Hello!

-Babe, look at you!
-Ooh, look at you!

[woman] Yeah, how are you?

-[sighs] My God!
-That's my beau.

[laughing]

[Kane] We have a theme today.
Everything is see-through.

I feel like I should have
worn something see-through too.

What's your Chinese sign?

Your Zodiac sign.

-Chicken.
-Yes!

My favorite! Eighty-one!

I make a lot of money on roosters,
a lot together, good luck.

Really?

[laughing]

I'm already rich.

[laughing]

I am obsessed with the Chinese Zodiac.

I think it's more accurate
than the Western ones.

Um, so Mimi was born
in the year of a rooster,

and I'm born in the year of a snake.

So when you have these two pair together,

everything is successful.

-Are you snake? I know.
-[Kane] Snake!

Best friend! Seriously,
I always look for roosters around.

You next to me, you rich.

Thank God, I mean, thank Buddha, sorry,

Mimi and I are hanging out a lot more.

Yes!

[chuckles]

-[Kelly] How long since you moved in?
-[Leah] A week.

-[Kelly] Was the furniture here before?
-[Leah] Yeah.

-Yes.
-[Kelly] Oh.

[Kane] Ohh.

Let's party.

[upbeat music playing]

♪ Shinin' like a diamond
This is my time ♪

♪ Booty in the bag
That's so sight… ♪

[laughing]

[Kelly] Leah and Garrett are dating.

At the beginning,
I know she was very, like,

not sure because Garrett's
a lot younger than her.

Where you going?

Oh my God, guys. All right. Oh my gosh.

Me, I'm like, "Leah, go for it!"

Garrett is so sweet, so cute,
and he's really sweet to her.

He is mature for his age.

[Kane] I feel there's too much
sex in here. Garrett!

But you know,
I'm still figuring things out.

I don't know.

♪ Booty in the bag
That's so sight ♪

[doorbell rings]

-Knock knock!
-[Kane] Oh, hello.

-[man] Dorothy!
-Hi.

-Hi! Happy housewarming.
-You look great.

Thank you.

-How many years since I saw you?
-I have no idea.

-Like five years, six years?
-Hi!

-Thank you!
-[Dorothy] Hi.

Congratulations!

-Where's Guy?
-I brought you one too.

-[man] This is Leah.
-I'm Dorothy.

-What a beautiful home.
-[Leah] Thank you.

You're very close to, like,
the late-night after-party warehouses

I used to go to when I was 20.

We're very deep.

I had to go home to grab my passport
and any leftover MDMA

I had from 2001 to be here.

Did you eat dinner?

Um, I had some Erewhon before I came.

-What's up with everybody and Erewhon?
-[Dorothy] What do you mean? The best!

[laughs]

You guys, he turns red
when he's drinking. He's white!

What?

-[Leah] God, you're Asian at heart!
-No.

-[Leah] You have the Asian glow.
-Really?

I got the enzyme.

[Kelly] How'd you meet Dorothy?

-[Kane] Through a mutual friend.
-How many years ago?

[Kane] Six, five years ago.

[in Chinese] She's difficult to talk to.

[laughs] We don't have a lot in common.

Nothing to talk about?

-[Leah] Can she speak Mandarin?
-[Kane] Probably.

[Leah] She can speak it.

-[Guy in English] You speaking secret Chi–
-[Kane] No, we're not.

Does she remember you?

[Kane] I don't know.
I don't really think she cares. [chuckles]

I've known Dorothy for a few years
'cause we have a lot of mutual friends.

But, you know, after she became famous,
when I saw her she would just ignore me.

But given that it's Leah's party,
and Jaime is friends with her now,

I was just trying to be kind.

I was like, "Maybe it's time
to say hi again." Obviously not.

[Kelly] I feel like
there's more to the story.

-There's more to the story?
-[Kelly] With you.

With me?

Kane has been trying
to get lunch since 2011, and…

and I'd rather fast for 87 days straight.

[pop music plays]

Hi!

Oh, hello!

Oh my God, it's a Prada day!

It's a Prada day!

-How are you? You look so cute.
-I'm good.

I know, this is, like,
my Prada sporty look.

This is your sporty look?
I feel like mine is more sporty.

I love your bag.

Thank you.
I brought you some green juices.

Oh you did?

'Cause I feel like you
never have vegetables.

Take your pick.

I'm gonna pass on this for now

because I'm more of a dessert person.

Should we go get,
like, some mini doughnuts?

[chuckling]

Wait, are you dating anyone?

I don't know why everyone keeps asking me.

Like, it's not my priority
right now, dating.

I do think I'm someone that's more private

when it comes to relationships.

I don't like to share too many details,

and I also feel like

it's not necessary to.

It's never my priority,
which is a problem.

Like one time, I tried to be,
like, very open to dating,

and my friend set me up
with this guy who, he was,

"Oh, you know, he's rich, he's whatever,
he's a good guy, and he's good-looking."

But he literally ended up
being a con artist.

After our first date, we went to Hyde.

After Hyde, he was dropping me off,
and he called an Uber.

And we were on our way to my house.

And then the Uber stopped,
and then people were getting in the car.

I thought we were literally
getting taken, like, being robbed.

I was screaming, "God, what's going on?"

It was a pool.

It was an UberPool?

I never… I didn't know that it existed.

Like, who switches their Uber
all the way to that side?

He was like, "It's an UberPool.
I must have accidentally done it."

-I was like, "What's an UberPool?"
-Accidentally?

But he was good at taking pictures.

That's the plus side.

[laughing]

[Jaime sighs]

There's a small percentage of guys

that are gonna feel comfortable
that we can immerse into our world.

Yes, and most of them are taken.

Most of them are taken or married.
[laughs]

I agree. I was waiting patiently
for when the right person comes along.

But you're young, so I feel like you can.

I wish I was 23, and then I had, like,
ten more years until I had to worry about…

-"Am I gonna get married?"
-You're like, "Time to get serious."

I know. I've given myself
one more year of being easy about it,

until maybe, like,
I'm like, when I turn 34…

-Then you're like, "Okay."
-…I feel like I have to buckle down.

I have to start
positioning myself in places

where I think
maybe I will meet someone that I like.

You've been in LA,
like, your whole life, right?

Yeah. Or seeing the same people
around since I was little.

You need a new…

-I need a new pond to fish in, and…
-You do.

I just don't think the little groupers

in Los Angeles
are cutting it for me anymore.

So, what else is going on?

Well, I was with Kane
like a few weeks ago,

and before that too.

And he's always wanting to,
like, connect with you.

I was like, "Oh, did you know
Dorothy before or whatever?"

And then he's like, "Yeah, I knew Dorothy
from, like, a very long time ago."

And I was like, "Dorothy's never really
mentioned anything about you before."

He's like, "I wanna meet her
and connect with her again 'cause--"

I don't know why he keeps saying that

because our only interactions were,
like, maybe, like,

my friend and I would run into him
at the Louboutin store.

And he'd come up
and be obnoxious and annoying

and be like, "We should get lunch!"
I'd be like, "No!" And that was it.

I think he randomly had this weird
Instagram battle with my best friend.

Like, he would… Like, my friend Ezra,

like, obviously, like, very fashionable,
very stylish, like, immaculate.

And Kane for some reason, like,
would battle him on Instagram, and--

In terms of outfit stuff?

Yes, like, "I have this many pairs
of this. What do you have?"

Like, it was just gross,
and like, my friend would never engage.

Kane used to purposely,
like, shade my friend Ezra on Instagram,

about, like, clothes and fashion,
and would make digs at my friend.

And it was just so childish and so catty.

And, like, Kane is also just so annoying,
like, just obnoxious.

Now I feel like I'm being mean,

but I'll stand by everything that I say.

Like, he can be himself,
I just don't need to be around him.

[slurps]

Okay, then I worked out at this gym,

and he was also there.

I walked in and he, like, looked at me.

I think he wanted me
to say something, but I was like, "Oh."

And I dodged and went to my workout.

Bolted.

Then my trainer, he also owns the gym,

he was, like,
"Dorothy, you won't even believe."

"After you left,
Kane wanted to file a complaint,

'cause he said,
'Isn't this a private gym?'"

"'Why is that girl,
I don't know who she is,

why is that girl here
disturbing my workout?'"

He was referring to you?

The whole gym was like,
"We saw what happened."

"Like he kept coming over to you,
and just being annoying."

Then he tried to do it like that.

That's why you don't wanna be like…

Like he's just not my vibe.

I feel like you just need to meet him,
be in the same room together…

I was at Leah's.

But in like a non-party setting…

-To do what, though?
-I mean, to just like…

It's like I have to break up with a guy
I wasn't ever even dating.

[doorbell ringing urgently]

[Kevin] Who's that?

[Jaime] It's, uh… Kelly is here.

[doorbell ringing urgently]

-[Kelly] Are we not invited in?
-[Kane] Jaime.

-[Jaime] Stop ringing the doorbell.
-It wasn't me. It was him.

-[Jaime] You look so cute. Hi!
-[Kevin] Damn, Kelly.

-Hi! How are you?
-[Kane] Look at that outfit.

-Good to see you.
-Good to see you. I like your tie-dye.

Wh… What's the ensemble?

-[Kelly] She said she's going hiking.
-[Kane] Her hiking means a photo sh**t.

Okay, let's go to the living room. Gotcha.

Kevin, your backpack.

[Kevin] So,
I looked up Jessey's ex, Crystal.

There's photos of Jessey
with Crystal in it.

And in her profile it says,

"Divorced a millionaire,
onto a billionaire," something like that.

Her profile, her Instagram profile,
like, you know, under your name,

it literally says, like, "Divorced
a millionaire to become a billionaire."

I just said that, Jaime.

Wait, do you have her Instagram?
Can we pull her Instagram?

-Let me get my phone.
-Yeah, I wanna see.

Kane filled everybody in.

Apparently Cherie
might have been with Jessey

while he was married
to a lady named Crystal?

It's so shocking because it's Cherie.

It seems so out of character for her.

-This is so confusing, this whole thing.
-Oh my gosh.

No, that's it right there! That's it.

[Kane] How many kids
do they have? Two girls?

-Two.
-[Kelly] Yeah, two.

Dude, that's so many pictures.

Of them together, I know.

And the kids!
Holy sh*t, I have f*cking goose bumps.

[Kelly] I'm so confused.

[Kane] See if you can Google,
like, records,

like marriage records and divorce.

Oh my gosh, divorce.

It says divorced?

Divorced, Texas, 2016.

-Google's the best.
-[Kelly] They're divorced.

What year was Jadore born?

-Good question.
-[Kevin gasps]

Good call.

What year was Jadore born?
'Cause she was a--

-[Kane] Jadore is year of a monkey.
-[Kelly] Oh, 2016.

They were having sex
and making babies before the divorce.

Holy sh*t.

I feel a little shitty because I thought,

I'm really, you know,
our friendship with her is so strong.

What do you guys think
I should do because--

-Tell her how you feel.
-[Kelly] You should.

Have a conversation with her,
and that's it.

Then figure out, say your piece
then you can move on.

[Kane grunts]

This is so tough.

I believe in you.

[dramatic music playing]

[knocking]

-Peter! What's up, man?
-What's up, Kev?

-Good to see you!
-How are you? How you doing? You good?

I'm good.

Dude, I've never been here before.

-Okay, welcome.
-This is your new home?

Let's… I made us some coffee.

Cheers. Thank you.
How do I function without it?

Ah, same. I know.

Holy sh*t.

-So you haven't seen this place?
-No.

Not since you moved here. This is amazing.

-It's like a 360 view.
-It's like being on a ship.

Oh, this is what sobriety brings to you,
huh? This is so cool.

So, what's happening, Kevin?

-Why don't you… take a pew?
-[sighs] A lot…

[sighs]

You know, I'm just, um…

feeling a little bit confused about kind
of where I am in my life. You know?

What's the nagging issue?

So there's this girl,

and she has a big party life,
that's how she makes her living.

-Yep.
-She's the DJ.

What do you do when you find yourself
slipping backwards a little bit?

-At six years sober?
-Yeah, five and a half.

I've been sober
for over five and a half years,

December 13th, my dad's birthday.

It's not something I talk about often,
but I'm in a 12-step program.

I have a sponsor,
who I check in with every single night.

I decided to get sober
because I became dependent

on drinking to become myself.

So what ended up happening was,

I would ruin
all my relationships with people.

Uh, my family didn't trust me as much.
I was broke.

If that couldn't get me sober,
I don't know what could.

When you say slipping backwards,
what do you mean?

Like, for instance,
this goes away, when I drink.

Like, this person that, like,

has a head on his shoulders,
wants to do good for other people,

wants to make something
of himself, goes away.

And how do I say this?

I forget about sobriety a lot more
the more I get involved in a relationship.

-I'm scared that could happen with Kim.
-That's bad.

Yeah.

You going out on a date,
and then maybe, let's say, you slip

and you have a drink.

Most folks, no big deal,
but you might not come back from that

for years and years.

But I'm just saying, I do want to see
what happens with somebody like Kim.

She's not the first person that I've…

Interested in that drinks, you know?

If you like and respect
and possibly more with Kim,

I think you need to sit down with her
and explain what sobriety is.

That you are in a 12-step program.

This is not just a health kick.

I think if I were to be honest,
I'm just more afraid of telling her.

Why? What are you afraid of?

Like having a connection with people
and liking someone and being attracted,

I mean, to me,
I don't find that very common.

You know, and just…

Don't you think that'll scare her off?

If it does, it does.

The truth is the truth.

But people think the word addict,
and they think…

[clicks tongue]

If she doesn't accept you for who you are…

Yeah.

…then she might not be the right person.

You gotta lay it out on the table

and trust your higher power
is gonna guide you down the right path.

The more you try and control it…

Yeah.

…it's just gonna be a mess.

[hip-hop music plays]

♪ I look fresh with my new kicks on ♪

♪ I'm kinda hot with my new kicks on ♪

-Oh my God!
-[Dorothy] Oh my God!

We're, like, matching!

What?

Why are we always, like, the same?
Look at our hair.

-Our hair, I feel like we always match.
-Neon green.

-Oh my God!
-And the bags. [laughs]

And the bags are the same again.

I'm just like the adult version of you.

You're like the more mature version.

-We're always like on the same vibe.
-We're always… Always.

-[host] Hi ladies, welcome.
-Hi.

-This will be your table.
-[Dorothy] Thank you so much.

Of course.

It's so crazy actually.

-We didn't plan this either.
-[Jaime] No.

We, like, never plan our looks,
and we always show up in the same vibe.

In the same vibe.

-Like, brand.
-It's like it's… [sighs]

It's so crazy.

Crazy crazy.

Ah! This bag, I, like, don't understand
all the things that come with it.

-I'm just stuffing it--
-All the little like…

-It has no shape.
-I know. I didn't have time…

I actually stuff tissue,
or whatever, in my bags,

so I honestly
don't even put stuff in them.

-Because I carry a lot of mini bags.
-[Dorothy] What do you put in there?

There is nothing in here
except for, I think, tissue.

So I actually have…
I have a surprise for you.

Oh my God, what type of surprise?

Um…

-I'm not gonna tell you because--
-Does it fly? Float? Drive?

I don't know. I mean, you just…
You have to wait and see.

Oh my God, I see the surprise coming.

Jaime! Are we all in green today?

[suspenseful music playing]

Jamie asked me
to have a little meal with Dorothy.

I'm willing
to actually explore talking to her

or just being in the same area with her,
because we're all adults in the end.

Maybe there's a chance that Dorothy

and myself can hang out now, maybe.

-[Jaime] Hello.
-[Kane] I like that we're all coordinated.

-I know.
-Yeah.

-Thank you for having me. How've you been?
-[Jaime] I've been good. Yeah.

-Have you moved here yet?
-I'm looking for a house here.

I have a real estate license,
actually, that I never use.

-Actually, I do too.
-I never use it.

-So I have two real estate people.
-I have my license as well.

I actually represented myself
in my last purchase.

It's great to have it. It's like 3%.

How long did it take you to get it?

-Three months or whatever.
-[Kane] Yeah, around there.

-And it's not easy. It's like, I thought--
-No, it was so easy!

[Kane] Really?

Oh my God, you guys are bonding
over real-estate licenses.

I'm surprised that you have that.

To her, it's easy.
For me, I'm like, "This is so hard."

Can I pay someone to do this?

Oh wow.

I have to go take my Invisalign out.
I'll be right back.

Take it out here.

-No way.
-[chuckles]

-Bye! Enjoy.
-[Jaime] Wait!

That's not… [chuckles]

-She's not actually leaving? I hope not.
-No, I don't think so.

[Dorothy] I am very surprised to see Kane
'cause I don't wanna be fake,

but since he is there in front of me,

I would never be purposely mean to him.

There is a time, when you do see
that person in front of you,

you do almost feel bad
that you don't like them

'cause, like, when you really see them
in front of you, it humanizes them.

Kane, you've been telling me you wanted
to kind of reconnect with Dorothy.

-You guys knew each other from before.
-We have a lot of mutual friends.

-Like who?
-Ralph. Valerie.

I'm not friends with them.
I'm not friends with her.

Yeah. But I mean, you know them, right?
It's a small circle, so…

Um…

-Yeah.
-[Jaime] Uh huh.

So I'm just gonna be honest,

I was telling Kane
how Dorothy actually explained to me

why she's not your biggest fan.

No, I just, no,
I just think that it's not that, like…

Not everyone is friends
and not everyone vibes, and that's okay.

You have a problem with Ezra, right?

No, I don't have a problem with him.
I just think that, um…

You don't?

Um…

I move on.

One day he blocked me on Instagram.
I was like "Okay."

-He blocked you on Instagram?
-Actually, I blocked him. Sorry.

I blocked him.

-[Jaime] You have no hate towards him?
-Nothing. I don't need to talk to him.

I don't need to be friends with him.
Why are you trying to put me with him?

We're not.

We're literally asking you
why you don't like him,

or what happened?

That's it, end of story.

When you're someone
who comes from apparent wealth,

and some apparent class and stature,

like, you have to be careful of your words
and how they can affect people.

What's your point here?
That was four years ago.

-But that's the issue--
-That's not an issue anymore.

There's just nothing because… Move on.

Everyone's entitled to an opinion,
but there's a way to say things.

And there's a way
to kind of have a little bit of class.

I didn't know we were getting into this.
This is so childish.

-But you're making it into a bigger issue.
-Taking things out of context again.

It's not out of context.
Know what "out of context" means?

Well, I'm not gonna sit here
and let you talk to me this way.

Because I don't need
to be friends with you,

and I think I made up my mind.

-You made up your mind?
-[Kane] I made up my mind.

I wish you all the best in your life.

-Thank you so much.
-[Kane] Yeah.

This clarifies everything.

I'm glad you came
and got your clarification.

I think that Kane is just so annoying.

And here I am not wanting to be friends,

but I did actually feel a tinge bad.

But then his true colors and craziness

and just, like, lies came out.

I think after tonight,
we are exactly where we started

in the sense
that Kane does not exist in my world.

-Okay.
-Jaime, I respect you.

I'm still your friend.

But with her, I just feel like this has
just gotten taken out of context.

Right. It was going great
with the real-estate part.

-I know, but like--
-Then after the Invisalign…

When the Invisalign came out,
the gloves came off.

People like Dorothy,
all they do is gossip and create drama.

I just came here for dinner.

I didn't expect this to be
a full-blown interrogation

about, "You said this. You said that."

I don't hang out with her,
and she doesn't hang out with me.

So for her to have like a laundry list
of things she's upset with,

it's like what Mariah said to J.Lo.

Like, I don't know her.
It's the same thing. I don't know her.

We don't have to be friends,
you know, you go your way, I go my way.

-Thank you so much.
-[Kane] So, peace.

See why I never wanted
to hang out with him?

Even when he's angry,
and like, "I'm leaving,"

he's still so desperate for attention.

He's just… Ugh.

[people speaking indistinctly]

Hi, Kelly!

[laughing]

[woman] Hi!

[cheering]

[Kevin] Hey, Kane.

Hey, how are you, buddy?
Is there a p*nis pump?

[all laugh]

I'm reminiscing, like, good old times.

[Guy] She has a p*nis pump.

Oh, it's wet!

[laughing, shouting]

-That was a good time?
-Leave the past in the past.

How are you? You look great.

We're at Anna's Sunset goodbye party.

She sold her house on Sunset,
moved into her new place.

[Kelly] Where's Anna? Anybody see Anna?

And as we can all expect, Anna is late.

And all she has to do
is come to her own house.

It's not like she got lost.

But that's the norm for her.

[Christine] It's the party people.

[Kane] Look at you, gorgeous!

[Kim] A turtleneck!
I like a man in a turtleneck!

Do you really? Do you?

-[Kim] You look like a turtle!
-[Kevin] My God, no I don't.

-Hi, sweetie.
-[Kim screams] I love your hair.

[Guy] Hello, hello, hello.
Look at you, gorgeous.

[Kelly] Oh wait! Wow! Look who's here!

[speaking indistinctly]

Hey!

-Hi, how are you?
-So cute!

-God, I didn't know what to wear.
-You shopping inside?

Am I okay? How's my outfit?

-Super cute.
-I was like, I feel…

-[laughing]
-Okay.

Can I have that?
Is that in emerald? I want it so bad.

Here am I,
trying to get in this festive mood.

And then I see Cherie.

And it's a really awkward moment.

Someone like Dorothy doesn't affect me
in any way because I'm not close to her.

What affects me
is friends that I'm close with.

And I don't know this Cherie.

I don't know this person anymore
that I thought was my friend.

How is Jevon?

-Time flies.
-Who?

[Cherie] Jevon!

[Leah] Jevon.

-[Kim] You have another kid I don't know?
-No, girl. No.

[Kim] Okay.

Where's the seating chart?
Where do we sit?

Um…

-Is there names?
-There's no names.

Thank you.

[Kevin] My Gemini.

[laughing]

Stay away from Kevin, that one!

We need to blow the whistle.

Blow the whistle. Hey!

-[laughing]
-[Kevin] No whistle to be blown.

Okay, you guys!

[Kevin] Food's coming.

-Oh, let's go!
-It's dinner!

[speaking indistinctly]

Oh.

We're good, thank you.

[Guy] When is this wedding happening?

[Cherie] It's gonna happen in fall-winter.

[Guy] Fall-winter.

-This year?
-[Jaime] Have a date?

-[Cherie] Yeah!
-Oh my God!

-Probably 11 months.
-[Guy] Location and everything?

-[Jaime] Eleven?
-[Cherie] No location yet. Still looking.

Are you okay?

[Kane] I, I need to talk to her
and just get it out.

I can't… It, it, it…

You know how long
it's been affecting me, and like…

-[Kevin] I've never seen you like this.
-I know.

-Say it and get it over with.
-[Kane] Okay.

Be honest, be straightforward,
and get it over with.

I just wanna find out the truth.

[Kane] I don't like talking
about stuff in public.

But at the same time I'm sitting there
and seeing this girl there

just pretending to be,
like, sweet, innocent.

And I feel like I have to say something.

-Is everyone here invited?
-Yeah, of course.

[Jaime] Think it's gonna be
in the US or in Europe?

I don't want it to be in the US.

-[Jaime] You don't want it in the US?
-[Cherie] No.

It's gonna be Europe.

Cherie, like, I wanted to keep this
more private between us…

[Cherie] Yeah?

-[Guy gasps] Oh my God.
-[Almar] Oh my God.

[Kim] Oh my God, Paula!

She's a Gemini like me!

-I love you!
-[Paula] I love you! Thank you.

[Guy] She really is here.

-[Paula] Thank you.
-[kisses]

I thought World w*r III was gonna
happen between Cherie and Kane,

and then Paula Abdul walks in.

I'm like, what the f*ck?

I swear, only with this group.

[Anna] Paula and I met many years ago.

We bumped into each other again

through a very dear friend
of both of ours.

And it was like time didn't go by.

I love your nails. I love your blazer.

I love this.
This is… Is this Simone Rocha?

Yes.

Everyone's so happy that Paula is here,
but at the same time,

like, nothing basically has been resolved.

So, Anna, before you came down,
like, there was something going on

before your grand entrance.

-Jessey has another family.
-What?

[Jaime] Yes, Jessey has two kids

with a girl called Crystal,
and they were married.

I don't think we should discuss this.

Let's pretend that this conversation
never took place.

Let's pause on this for now.

-[Anna] The best thing.
-Yeah.
