[bunniefuu]

[upbeat music playing]

- Hey!

- [JD] Silvio. JD

- How are you?

- Very nice to meet you

- You ready to see some space?

- [Silvio] Yes

I My wife should join us

I hope she's coming

- Hi. How are you?

- [Silvio] Hey!

- How are you, Cristin?

- Good

- Hi, Cristin. Nice to meet you

- Hi, I'm JD

Where is Julia?

Um, Julia got a little tied up,

so I'm gonna FaceTime her,

so she's gonna view the space

with you over FaceTime

- I wanted her to come

- I know. I'm sorry

She got tied up in meetings

- She said that she'd come. [laughs]

- I know. Sorry

Okay, that's fine

[Cristin] Okay, thank you

[JD] This is the entire 11th floor

It is 11,511 rentable square feet

Uniquely, you have light on four sides

[FaceTime line ringing, picks up]

Hi

Hi, my love! I sent Cristin in my stead

because, uh, one of the investors

for the IPO called

Yeah, I understand

I understand, my love,

but we organized this

We knew about your call

It was all prepared

I wanted so much that you were here

I am here!

Well, no, you are there

No, you're not here

[Julia] Silvio needs office space

because he just started a fund,

but I'm speaking to this group

of massive investors,

and they want to talk to me now

There's nothing I can do

- So we're all here now. [laughing]

- Yes, yes

[JD] Julia, so good for you

to be joining us virtually

Oh, boy. It's not gonna be a good

evening for me. Let me tell you

[Silvio] Can you see anything?

Maybe from above? [chuckles]

- Here. Like this

- Okay, okay. Now I just see your thumb

- Do you see?

- She just sees your thumb

- Okay, let's do it again. Now do you see?

- I now see ceiling

If you were here,

you would have seen the whole thing

- We can do anything, you and I

- No, no

We can't do too many of these "Z"

I can't do a "Z" a "Z" date

I can't have a-a "Z" marriage

- [Silvio chuckles]

- [Julia chuckles sarcastically]

Love you

Do you "Z" love me?

- I "Z" love you

- [Silvio] Okay

- I "Z" you later

- Okay, see you later

[upbeat music playing]

- [man] Welcome. How are you this morning?

- [Robert] I'm well, thank you

I need to lose weight. I just, like,

don't want to stop eating

or drinking wine

- Robert? I'm ready for you

- Great. Thanks

So I'm seeing

Dr. Rosen today to understand,

like, are there other factors

in my life that are preventing me,

other than what I shovel into my mouth

and my lack of movement,

that are preventing me from losing weight?

So this will be interesting

Pleasure to meet you

Nice to meet you too, Robert

What can I do for you?

Um, I was pretty thin in college

I don't know if it was stress,

or just New York City or what it was,

I gained a bunch of weight

I've been pretty successful

in taking it off,

but it's just taken probably

a year and a half to lose 40 pounds

- It's still a huge accomplishment

- For sure

I've hit this plateau

I'm like stuck where I'm at,

and I just want to kickstart it

Sure. It's incredible how far you've come

We do a lot of weight loss here

Nutritionists you can work with,

we have medications

- A balloon that goes in stomachs

- I've heard about the balloon

- It's a modified breast implant

- Love, even more

that we put into your stomach

"Are you hungry?"

No, I've eaten a breast implant for lunch

I'm gonna run through symptoms

relating to obesity,

you tell me if any of these

are issues for you

That tingly part in your brain,

like when you have cheese? I have that

Whatever that thing is

when you put cheese in your mouth

and you get that little That

Mark that down, please

Coming up three flights of stairs,

do you feel short of breath?

Yeah

Two flights, I can manage

- Three flights? Ooh, lord! Marathon

- Right

- It's a full stop

- It's a rest, reset, start again

I feel you

Okay

It says that you have

no significant family history known,

and you didn't fill anything out

So your family is healthy?

Um, well, actually, I'm adopted,

so I have no information

Were your parents normal weight?

Yeah, my brother's normal weight,

my mother's normal weight

- I wish I had that gene pool

- That must be hard

[emotional music playing]

The fact that you don't know

your birth parents makes it hard for you

to necessarily see where you come from,

and I can imagine

that in your late teens, early twenties,

as the weight became an issue, that you

were left a little bit out on an island

For sure

The rest of your family

isn't struggling with those issues

Yeah, exactly

This is why I need

to find this birth person

This information is gonna

be valuable to me

I know that me reaching out to this person

is not something my family wants me to do,

but this is my life

This is a life-changing opportunity,

but I don't know how to proceed

I need to think through my next steps

[upbeat music playing]

How you doing?

- Good

- Good to see you. How's Ima?

- Same

Ima's good. Chefie made pasta

Ooh, yum

- Yeah

- Homemade pasta!

- Doesn't get better than that

- Mac and cheese

- So what else is going on?

- So, um

Shlomo and Miriam, they're telling me

I should be more relaxed with things

Like Jewish stuff, and girls, I shouldn't

make a thing out of everything

Well, look. So certainly, you know,

they're not asking you to do something

halacha

To them, it's not transgressing,

because they have their viewpoints

They're not asking you to eat

something that's not kosher, right?

They're they're trying to encourage you

to have more of a positive outlook,

like your situation with school

and talking with girls

- Yeah

- I know it's definitely different

than your experience in Monsey,

but there's nothing prohibited or assur,

talking or having conversation or

Well, the Mishnayos says,

"Lo tarbe sicha"

Can't speak to girls,

have excessive conversation

It doesn't say don't speak to girls

It says, "overdo it."

This idea of getting intimate with people

that you shouldn't be intimate with

That doesn't mean

you're touching or kissing a girl

You're classmates

It's totally okay to talk to them

There's absolutely no, you know, no issue

You shouldn't feel guilty about it

You respect them, which is important,

respect the women,

and you could be friends as well

When you say that, where am I able

to be friends or just friendly?

Are you friends with any girls?

- Am I friends with any girls?

- Mm-hmm

Yeah, there's there's people in my life

who I could talk to,

who I'm not married to

Nothing wrong with that

Interesting

We were a pretty yeshivish family

How did you get from,

like, more modern outlooks to this?

That's the nice thing

about Judaism in general

There's no one-size-fits-all

It's what you make out of it. [chuckles]

It's what you make of it? Yeah!

Really good way to look at it

There's all sorts of Orthodox Jews

out there,

they share a tradition of life

Some people start out more strict,

and then they get less strict

Some people who are less strict

become more strict,

and there's a lot of leeway in between

So, you know, where you are in your life

and your path,

you as a person have to choose

what that path is

[thoughtful music playing]

[indistinct conversations]

[line ringing]

[automated voice] The mailbox is full and

cannot accept any messages at this time

Goodbye

[waiter] How are you doing, sir?

It's been a while, I'm watching

You sure you

We need to be patient here

We'll get there

I hope she's arriving in ten minutes

Very nice. I'm just concerned about you

If you need anything, let me know

- I appreciate it

- No problem

We can have like a Q and A, and answer it,

and, um, we'll take it from there

All right, I got to go,

but let's talk about it tomorrow,

and we'll plan everything out

- Hey, my love

- Hey

Sorry I'm so late

You're half an hour late

[Julia] Mm-hmm

Oh, my love, I'm so tired. What a day

What's going on?

I've been sitting here waiting for you

I organized all my day

in order to be here on time

I was just looking forward to this,

and I just felt an idiot here. I mean

- Literally 40 minutes

- My love, I'm sorry

- wondering what was happening

- My love, I literally had my phone off

I was in the middle

of a massive presentation

with like 20 people,

and I didn't have my phone

I wish I could've been here earlier,

and I didn't see the time

until I walked out the door,

and then I would have called you

except that I got another call,

and then,

as you saw when I walked here,

I was still on the phone

So I'm very sorry. I'm sorry you had to

wait here by yourself. I'm super sorry

Are you becoming a workaholic?

I'm not becoming one,

I've been a workaholic

since the day you met me,

and I warned you about that from day one

Remember what you said?

- What did you say?

- "You're not easy."

You said, "Julia, you're not easy,

but easy is boring."

The main thing I would change

about my relationship with Julia

is to get more time for the two of us

She's so busy

on a thousand different things,

but I really have different priorities

There is a balance in every life

Everything is about priorities

My love, there's no balance

I don't have balance

[Silvio] That's the wrong approach

People have other things to do

and other priorities

Let's try to get organized,

respect a little bit my time

as you respect yours

No, I mean, you're not the only one

on this mother Earth

My love, let's just calm down

Can we please order,

- have a drink, and have a nice time?

- No!

[dramatic music playing]

[upbeat music playing]

Do I want to know what these are?

Oh, I do know what these are!

It's pillowcases!

These are very special

hypoallergenic pillowcases

from my dermatologist

I don't know why they're in your room

- So did you have a good time this week?

- Yeah, it was fun

- Did, um, Dalia text you?

- Mm-hmm

- She did?

- It'd be weird if she didn't text me

It would be weird if she didn't text you

What did she say?

- Said, "That was fun."

- Can I see?

- Nothing interesting

- No?

Really? You got something to hide?

I realized after seeing her

that I've rethought my decision

Really?

I was thinking about why I stopped

talking to girls and watching TV

wasn't for the right reasons

So, I was just doing

what my friends said was right,

not what actually is right

Wow. I'm so proud of you

- So now what does this mean?

- This means I'll speak to girls

- Yay!

shomer. Do it right

- Okay

- Well, my right

We can start with speaking

We'll move on to other things

in another time. When you're 17

Until then, girls and friendship,

I'm totally down with that

- Um, television?

- With mother. I won't watch it by myself

Excellent

Having fun?

- I'm still having fun

- Not always learning Torah?

Like, having a good time, as well?

- I'm always having fun

- Okay

[Aron] Everything in life happens

for a purpose, I believe

Between the modern and Yeshivish,

I think I'd be in the middle

That's me, as a person, growing up,

and my personality is in this button

[traditional Jewish music

playing through button]

[chuckles]

I'm so proud of you

You really scared the living daylights

- [laughing] I made you cry

- You made me cry

That wasn't good

[Julia] I just feel really grateful

People in my community,

women who leave,

most of them lose their children,

so I'm not going to push him

What I've learned is to just be loving

and to constantly show him

the beauty of the outside world

- It's good to have fun and enjoy life

- I'm having fun, I'm enjoying life

- I know. You have an awesome mom

- Yeah

[laughing]

And then Chris and Ayesha

wanted to meet today,

um, just to go over

some contracts with you

- Okay

- We can probably fit that in at like 4:30

4:30. All right

Hello

[Julia] Hey, beautiful

- Hey

- [Batsheva] Hey, Cristin

[Julia] Come on in, babe. Hold on

- [Batsheva] Busy day?

- Always a busy day

- [Cristin] How's your day going?

- Good. Exciting

I deserve to be chosen

for this position at Elite

because a big part of Elite is to help

models develop their social media

so that they can build their own brands

So I'm the perfect person to step in

- [Julia] Hello! Sorry, I'm

- [Cristin] No, you're fine

- I'm good?

- [Cristin] I'm gonna go. Okay

- I have some exciting news to share

- Yes?

I just landed a deal with a yoga company

for the highest-paid deal

I've ever received to date

Okay

For ten grand

for three sponsored Instagram posts

with the possibility

of being a long-term partnership

And I'm just really I was excited

to come share that news with you

Okay

[Batsheva] I want the position

If it means I need to one-up my siblings,

I think that I really have the power

and the knowledge to help Elite grow

I had a business idea for the company,

especially with regard to going public

You have all these different platforms

Um, but your

your platforms use other platforms,

like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok

So I was thinking,

since Elite is all about integrating

their platform into business models,

um, I'm thinking of, you know, maybe going

to business school, maybe pursue that

- instead of going to law school

- Yeah

I don't have a problem

trying to one-up my sisters

They're both trying to do it to me

It's a competition

We're all gonna

try our best to do the best

[Miriam] So I am a month and a half

ahead of schedule

I finished the EML app

That what I've been working on,

and been doing Eazitt stuff

This is Eazitt

This weekend we're going

to be shipping the the actual beta app

And there's one more thing

I wanted to tell you

- Okay

- I have this idea

Another idea

that I think will be really cool for us

I have business experience,

entrepreneurship experience,

and I'm about to launch

my own app in South Africa: Eazitt

Um

What's with the face?

I don't think that's enough money for you

What are the deal parameters?

- Are you getting a percentage of sales?

- No

- Are you creating the content or are they?

- I'm creating the content

Do they get the rights

to that content afterwards?

Can they post that content on their page?

- Yes

- So it's not just three posts

They can reuse that five years from now,

and you're not gonna get paid

a dollar more

- Is there exclusivity attached?

- Yes, for three months

So that means that if

any other yoga brand comes along,

you've given up your rights to that for

3K a post. I don't think that's worth it

You made a commitment,

you decided you were going this way,

you've been studying for the LSA

What you really need to think about is,

"What's the goal?"

'Cause, yeah, it sounds really cool,

but does it get you to your goal?

What's your goal?

What do you want to accomplish?

You told me you wanted to be a lawyer

You know, law school will always be there

- And, you know, this opportunity

- Yeah, but you're not 12, you're 24

I mean, again, look at you

Yeah, don't do it my way!

I wouldn't wish this on anybody

You need to stay on one path

Focus on taking the LSAT,

getting your law degree, learning to be

literally the world's best lawyer

Um, okay

Right now you are

finishing up the EML app,

you are launching Eazitt,

you're not prepared for the launch,

now you're starting another project

Do one thing at a time and do it well

Everything will happen. I'm confident

Babe, you're always confident

everything will happen,

then you get disorganized

and things don't go the way you planned

I would go back, I would ask for 20K

20K, I think is, like, an extreme amount

for someone at my level

I don't think so

Do not sell yourself short

Stay focused. I think it's gonna be

important for your life

[Miriam] Mm-hmm

- Love you

- [Batsheva] Love you

[tense music playing]

- Okay. Let's do

- [video call ringing]

[yoga brand rep] Hi

- Hi, how are you?

- Been doing really well. How are you?

I'm doing well. Thank you

I, um, really love the opportunity

that you gave to me,

and of course I love

your brand, it's incredible

Um, but after reviewing over the contract,

before I sign, I do have

some changes I would like to make

I know I am at a million followers,

and I feel like I do

I should be asking for more money

[tense music playing]

I actually thought

that this was a done deal,

so I'm caught a little bit

off guard by this call

I do have a large conversion to sale

So I don't think it's really fair for me

to be included

in, let's say, the $3,000 price range

that we have, right now,

figured out, proposed

Hm

I have to talk this over

with the rest of the team

before I can say one way or another

- Okay

- But I'll get back to you

Okay. Have a great day

Okay

- I hate revolving doors

- Why?

[groans] God. Guys, I may have

really just lost a huge deal

- because Ima told me that

- 'Cause what?

Basically, I walked in

like all happy, all proud,

because I got this deal

from a yoga brand

They offered me $10,000 for three posts

- Nice

- [Miriam] That's so big!

[Batsheva] Which is the biggest deal

I've ever had,

and I was all excited

to share this news with Ima

She was like, "You haven't

really thought this through."

"I don't think $10,000 is enough money."

"How long are they having

you use the content?"

"Are you getting a percentage of sales?"

"How long is the exclusivity?"

She's asking all these questions

She's like, "You should ask for $20,000."

All these big asks, which, like

I don't feel like I'm in that bracket

Yeah, yeah, totally

So basically I had to reach out

to the person, my contact at the team

- [Miriam] Did you listen to Ima?

- We're all trying to get in, you know?

- [Miriam] Totally

- I want to take her advice

But I didn't get, like,

a very wonderful feeling,

and now I keep checking my e-mail

like, "Is she gonna get back to me?"

So I went in today also, and she's like,

"Oh, you're you're getting old."

- [Batsheva] She said you're getting old?

- Yeah. Like, I'm 24!

Also, like, she started her whole thing,

like, when she was 40

"You can no longer do hobbies

You have to make decisions."

[Miriam] Wow

That's crazy. It's like

- Oh, f*ck

- [Miriam] What?

- My God

- [Shlomo] Good news? Bad news?

They said, "Based on

our earlier conversation,

we've decided to take our brand

in a different direction."

- [Miriam gasps]

- "We appreciate you taking time

to connect with us and wish you luck

on your future endeavors."

I'm just really, really upset right now

because that was the biggest deal

I've ever received,

and now I just lost it

because I listened to my mom's advice

- Oh my God. I'm so sorry, B

- [Shlomo] Yeah, Bat, that sucks

f*ck. f*ck, f*ck, f*ck! It's not fair

- [Robert] Hey

- [Julia] Hey

[groans] You're making me move

I needed some comfort in my life

- What is going on?

- I don't know. It's just weird stuff

Tell me more

Wait, hold that thought

You want a drink? I'm thirsty

- Please. But what kind of drink?

- One second

- I have Diet Coke

- Oh. Not the good kind

- It's fine

- Let's just do sodas

So what's going on?

Why are you concerned?

[groans]

What?

I don't know

I'm going through some weird sh*t

What weird sh*t?

I had a little bit of a blow-up

with Ross about my birth person

Just so you know,

I've hired a private investigator,

and really thinking

about reaching out to that birth person

I think you're an idiot. I mean,

I just don't think that's the best idea

So what's gonna happen

if I decide to go through with it?

Y'all are just gonna be mad at me?

If this ends up being a problem,

you're the one who started this problem

I know nothing

about like my medical history

I know nothing about my background

- [Julia] Mm

- But it seems disloyal

But it isn't. It's human nature

You don't want to replace Mitzi

You're not like, "I need to find my mom."

I've known you, now, five years

I mean, I knew you were adopted,

obviously you told me,

you've never spoken about it

So, if you're coming

with this kind of curiosity,

it's a very rational

and reasonable curiosity

I would like to know

what's your hesitation?

I don't know that it's worth it,

the complication

It isn't a diss to Mitzi at all

I mean, if you're asking my advice,

I say go meet your birth person

The fact you're having this conversation,

and that you're sitting here

talking to me about it,

you knew what I was gonna say

You came in here expecting me to say

the exact words I'm saying to you now

You want me to

convince you to do this

I think the real question you have to face

is do you want to meet her?

Yeah

I'm 33. I need to figure out

what the next step in my life is,

so I'm gonna ask this private investigator

to set up a time for us to meet

This is not something

my family wants me to do

I don't want to hurt them,

but on the other hand, I've got to stop

letting these feelings hold me back

Now's the time

I think you're doing a big step. I think

this is very mature and responsible

You should know your ancestry

I'm 99.89% Ashkenazi Jew

- What if I am too and we didn't know?

- My God

- What if I'm a tribe member?

- That would be amazing

Gonna make, gonna make

Gonna make it ♪

I'm gonna be all right ♪

I'm gonna make this work ♪

All I need is one more try ♪

Gonna make, gonna make

Gonna make it ♪

I'm gonna be all right ♪

I'm gonna make this work

Just give me one more try ♪

[Silvio] Here we are. Beautiful

- [Julia] Here we go. Fly fishing

- Here we are

[Julia] Silvio and I

are both very strong people,

- and my goal is keeping the peace

- [playful music playing]

I don't want him to think I don't want

to spend time with him. Of course I do!

So to show him just how much I care,

I'm going to do something

completely outside of my comfort zone

[Silvio] Oh wow!

- You've got some Saint Laurent waders?

- [Julia] Yes

Maybe I don't have quantity of time,

but I can give quality of time

[Silvio] It's a beautiful day

[Julia] It is a beautiful day

Here we go. My goodness

- This is so crazy

- [Silvio chuckles]

[Julia] Ergh

I am not made for the outdoors

Hope you know how much I love you

- [Silvio laughing]

- Put this beauty on

Okay

- [playful music continues]

- Ta-da!

- Oh wow!

- How are they?

I literally feel like an oompa loompa

[Silvio laughing]

- Careful, my love. Don't fall

- Notice, my love,

- I'm not gonna fall

- Don't fall

- I'm not gonna fall. You don't fall!

- Okay

I do not like getting wet

Nice and easy, my love

Oh, it's cold! It's frickin' cold!

Okay, and I really hate being cold

Cold and wet put together? Mm

- Yeah, that's good here

- Oh, my God

Add to that the fact

that I also have to fish

Delightful

- All right, my love, you ready?

- [Silvio] Yeah

- All right, you stand there

- Stand there?

So I don't hit you

Ready? Shall we cast?

- [Silvio] Yeah

- [grunts]

[upbeat music playing]

[Silvio laughing]

[Julia] Oh, man

I look very f*ck right now

Are we officially even?

It has been a fantastic day

- [Julia yells]

- [Silvio] Oh. Oi, oi!

- Careful. Careful!

- [Julia screaming]

- Careful. [laughing]

- [yelling]

Oh, my poor love. It's freezing

- Oh, my tushy!

- [Silvio laughing]

It's so cold. Why are you laughing?

It's freezing, my love. Here. Okay, okay

There's a rumor going around

that I fell in. It's patently untrue

- [Julia yells]

- [Silvio] Oh! Oi!

I chose to sit down because I was just

getting tired of standing

That's all that happened. Nothing else

I don't know

what people are talking about

- My love, look at me

- Yeah?

Thank you so much

You can come sit down with me

[Silvio] I love you, okay?

We're coming back on Sunday, right?

- [Julia] You're lucky I love you

- [Silvio laughing]

[inspirational music playing]

[Miriam] Tonight is a launch party

for Eazitt

All my siblings are saying they can

do things, but I'm actually doing them

This is what you came up with

and showed Ima?

Yeah, this is one of the things

I've been working on

- I'm really impressed, Mir

- Thank you

- [guest] Hi

- [Miriam] What's up? Welcome

I'm going to get alcohol

- [Kai] Hi

- It's so good to see you

How are you indoctrinating this man

into the world of fashion?

He also start to sketch

- Yeah? Amazing!

- Yeah

It's very hard

- It is so hard

so hard!

So Miriam never actually told me

what happened with you guys

I heard about, like, your date,

that you had a really nice time

We did. Yeah, we had a little smooch

- I heard about the smooch

- [Kai giggles]

- She said it was really good

- [Kai] Oh, I'm glad!

- You remember Kai from the fashion show?

- I do, we

- Super beautiful

- We also went to a Broadway show together

No, wasn't me. Wish I was there

[Miriam and Nico] Ooh

- Hello

- Can I get a

- Good to see you. Thanks for coming

- [Nico] Yeah, likewise

I'm having a lovely conversation with Kai,

and then I see Nico walks in,

and Katherine walks in

It appears that it is not only

a launch party for Miriam's app,

but it's also like a a little reunion

of all the people Miriam's hooked up with

- Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Kai

- Kai

So Kai went out with Miriam

Miriam brought her

to my mom's fashion show

She's introduced girls to us,

but never a guy

- So it's a really big f*cking deal

- Okay

[all laughing]

- No pressure

- Yeah, like, casually

We're talking. We're introducing

your, uh, your fashion show date and your

[Miriam] Oh!

Honestly, I just sent a text message

to so many people about my event,

I didn't really think that

I was inviting all these people

that I went on a date with

I don't even know

if I told Nico I was bisexual

You've got loads to tell me. [laughing]

It's a little funny

that they're all meeting each other,

but I have more important things

to worry about

Hey, Mama

- I'm so proud of you

- [Miriam] Thank you for coming

[Julia] Mmm

- Fantastic. [chuckling]

- [Miriam] Thank you

An entrepreneur at 20!

[Miriam laughs]

I see my mom talking to Miriam,

and she has a smile on her face,

and I get this feeling inside that,

"What if my mom is telling Miriam

the news that, really, I wanted to get?"

It never feels good to be defeated

I tried

But, you know,

I guess the the better woman won

[Julia] Can I steal my beautiful oldest

for a moment?

Thank you. I want you

to come meet someone

Okay

- This is Nicole

- Hi

[Julia] Nicole runs Alo Yoga

I'm such a fan. I've seen everything

that you do on social

I love your TikTok

And Nicole, you want

to tell her the good news?

- We are so excited to partner with you

- [Batsheva] What?

Alo Yoga,

we think is just the right fit for

- Oh, my God!

- what we're doing

- [laughing]

- [Batsheva] Thank you

- I knew she'd be happy

- Heard it was a surprise

Surprise!

[Katherine] How do you know Miriam?

Oh, um, so we've been dating for a bit,

but I met her through a mutual friend

I also dated her

- [Katherine] No way

- A lot going on here

She has like a menagerie of

love over there

Stop staring

They're literally looking back now

Every party I come to, you've made out

with a different one of these people

Well at least I'm getting action

You're not getting any

Okay, all right,

let's not make this personal

[laughing]

- I want to go join their conversation

- No, don't do it

- Come on

- Stop!

- Come with me. Here we go

- No. You're such a dickhead

Hey, guys. Miriam just wanted

to say thank you for coming

- Hey, Miriam

- Anytime

- Thanks for having us

- [Miriam] Thanks for coming

- Love how you're all well-acquainted

- [Robert] Three close friends

- We love each other

- We're already a squad

- [Miriam] Oh really?

- "Squad." That is a word for it

- We formed a group chat

- Oh my goodness!

We're gonna hang out

- [Robert] I'd love to be added

- We can make that happen

I'm willing to make financial

Okay, great!

[laughing]

But, E, why didn't you tell me

what was happening?

I thought like I lost, like, a huge deal

[Julia] I could have told you

about Alo Yoga,

but I wanted you to see, even when you

think that what I'm doing is crazy,

there is a method to my madness

What I wanted you to know

is that you need to trust me

- So this was a test?

- It was a test

I wanted you to learn to trust me

You know, Elite's about to go public

I've got plans for our family business

So we're all going to be involved?

'Cause I had overheard

your conversation with Robert

- You were saying

- What conversation with Robert?

I was working in e1972,

and you and Robert had walked in,

and you were saying,

"Only one of my kids."

"Since the company is going public,

only one of my kids can be involved."

This is what happens when you listen

to a piece of a conversation

What I actually said to Robert was

I can only put one of you in at a time

So we're all gonna be able to be involved?

Yes. I have a plan,

and the only way my plan doesn't succeed

is if we don't have trust

Okay, I'm sorry

[Julia] I love you

[Shlomo] I see my mom hugging Batsheva

as if she's congratulating her,

and

I'm just like really confused

So Batsheva told me that, um

she overheard you speaking to Robert,

and that you're only keeping one

of the children on the company

- You know

- Get over here

I love you so much. You're so funny

Oh, my gosh. So Batsheva heard

a piece of a conversation

- Okay

- The reason that I was so adamant

is because I see a very big place for you

We need a brilliant legal mind

who's on our side

Someone whose heart and soul

is going to be about protecting us

because it's his company, too

You're my brilliant legal mind, Shlomo

There's never been a moment when

you haven't been part of my grand plan

- There's never been a moment when you

- What's up?

Hello! What did you tell the kids?

I was just sharing what I overheard

Guys, there was never a moment

where every single one of you

did not have a role in my grand plan

of us becoming a successful family

I have great faith in the future

My one concern will always be

that people

are going to try and divide us,

and we cannot allow that to happen

We have to trust each other

so deeply, so integrally, so completely,

that no one will ever come

and divide us

And to me, this is a great step

in that direction

It gives me great faith in the future

- I love you, guys

- We love you

- I love you. You're amazing

- Sorry for misunderstanding

[Julia] I love you guys so much

I'm not going to do anything

that is not in your best interest

I want you guys to all outdo me

Challenge accepted

- [laughing]

- This is just the beginning
