When I saw Crazy Rich Asians,
I thought it was a nice fantasy.
But then,
the first person I met in LA was Kane.
Then I meet Kane's friends.
- [people shouting indistinctly]
- [woman] Go!
[man] They have
the whole world at their disposal.
And I'm just, like, "Oh my God,
this is real."
[shouts] Thank you, Jesus!
[man] I've never actually met
a billionaire in my life until I met Kane.
[both shouting]
There's only so many, like,
crazy rich Asians in Los Angeles.
I basically know everyone.
The Asians are here!
[all laughing]
Wealth, to me, is happiness
and having friends who are always there.
[man 2] If you can't afford it,
you are in the wrong place.
[man] I'm in the wrong place.
- You're with us. You're safe.
- Okay.
Kevin!
We're all Asian. We don't fight.
- [woman] I wanna...
- [woman 2] What'd you say?
- [woman] Oh, God.
- Me and my couture are leaving.
This is $100,000.
[all cheering]
Hey, don't outshine me, b*tch!
The exit's right there.
Don't you think this is perfect
for grocery store shopping?
- Blast her a*s!
- [Kane] Feel the power!
Oh, my God!
[woman shrieks, laughs]
[all laugh]
- [man] Ow! That's my hamstrings.
- [laughs]
[all cheering]
I mean, I feel like crazy attracts crazy.
[man] Back in Philadelphia,
I was one of the only Asian people
growing up.
I was always the first Asian guy
that girl's dated over there,
like I was some type of experiment.
And then I come here, in Los Angeles.
I thought I'd just come here
and find normal Asian friends.
But I found way more than I expected.
[chanting a mantra]
- [Kane] Hi.
- You look ridiculous in that.
- [Kane] Shut up. I was meditating.
- [laughs]
Kane's family comes from oil,
shipping, tanking, real estate.
But what I mean "real estate,"
he owns the shopping malls
that you go into in Singapore or Thailand,
all of Southeast Asia.
What are you wearing? [chuckles]
I'm wearing this.
So, I've known Kevin for a year,
and we became really good friends.
You were supposed
to go to Christine's party.
It's formal.
Kevin's a model.
Super good-looking,
but he has really bad fashion sense.
I'll get you some stuff.
Weren't you, like,
fatter before, so you should be...
[Kane chuckles] Did you just call me fat?
Prosperous.
That's what we call it in Mandarin.
[laughs]
[Kevin] Kane teaches me Buddhism.
Firstly, I was born in Korea
and I was adopted into a white family,
so there is definitely
a lower level of expectation
of what I will know about Asian culture.
Second of all, I...
I'm shocked that he practiced Buddhism.
He does not look like a guy
who practices Buddhism.
I don't think I've worn this before.
My $200 silk underwear.
Don't look.
Okay. A much better look.
- This is like...
- But no one's gonna see me like this.
[laughs]
- [Kevin] What is this?
- Look at that. Come on.
- I look like a Chinese Miami Vice.
- [Kane] No. You look better.
Okay, we'll switch it.
You should try this Prada shirt on.
Oh, this is better.
- It's getting there.
- [both laugh]
Kane's always made me feel
like I'm part of a group and welcomed,
um, even though
I feel like an outsider at times.
Kane.
Can you bring me the pants
when you're 40 pounds fatter?
[Kane] f*ck off.
[interviewer]
How did you get Beverly Hills to agree
to shut down Two Rodeo?
I can't even believe it myself.
I like to think I'm extremely persuasive.
In comparison to some other events,
what do you think really sets this apart?
Instead of gifting something
that guests will take home,
like a candle or a paperweight,
and not really see or touch it again,
I wanted something
that had longer lasting meaning.
So, we are making a donation
to sponsor one orphan per guest in China.
That's amazing.
This is the first year
that we are celebrating Chinese New Year
as a family.
I wanted to make sure we do it big.
And to do it big, of course,
you have to take over Rodeo.
So, we are gathering
all of our loved ones and friends,
and we're bringing Chinatown
to Beverly Hills.
[man] So, traditional black?
Yes, please.
Whatever matches Baby G most, please.
[Dr. Chiu] All right,
I'll go double check with his wardrobe.
[baby coos]
My husband, Dr. Chiu,
he is 24th generation,
direct descent of the Song Dynasty.
If dynasties were
still in existence in China,
my husband's father would be an emperor,
and he would be next in line,
and Baby G would be a little prince.
[coos]
[Christine] In Chinese culture,
your expectation, as a wife,
is to provide a male heir.
And for 11 years,
I was unsuccessful at getting pregnant.
And so, Baby G is our miracle child.
Seeing his face,
that can literally,
like, light up my world.
[Dr. Chiu]
You're going all Chanel tonight?
[Christine chuckles]
No, okay? Piaget sponsored the party.
- [Dr. Chiu] That's right.
- [Christine chuckles]
- This is gorgeous.
- [Dr. Chiu] Like that.
Really? I thought it was a bit much.
[Christine] Oh. No, I think
more is more when it comes to jewelry.
[feel-good music plays]
[moaning, kissing]
[woman]
I moved to Los Angeles for two reasons.
One, is to run away from a boy.
Two, is to chase a boy.
Mm. I love you.
Andrew is an actor.
He's most known
for being the red Power Ranger.
It's such a shame that he had a helmet on
most of the show,
because, I mean, look at him. [chuckles]
Andrew is very passionate.
He is half Latin, half Native American.
And plus, he has a great heart.
He's very honest.
A lot of my past relationship,
trust has always been an issue.
Am I the baby? [chuckles]
Yeah, you're the baby. Of course.
When I first kissed her,
I remember thinking,
"I don't know where this is gonna go,
or if anywhere,
but, Lord, I'm just…
I'm gonna throw a prayer up there,
because I wanna
build a life with this person.
- You gonna get ready?
- Yeah.
All right, unveil.
In my twenties,
I was married to a Chinese guy,
and we lived in a very privileged,
outrageous lifestyle.
You know, seven cars, four houses.
I think at the time we were spending
about 400k a month on our Black AMEX.
Until one day the government show up
and took everything from us,
and my ex-husband was arrested,
and I didn't know at the time,
but he was running one of the largest
cyber scam in American history.
All of our assets were frozen,
and we gave the government,
I think it was like $168,000,000.
Yeah. I didn't even know
who I was sleeping next to. [chuckles]
After losing everything,
I became an entrepreneur.
[in Mandarin] Okay, then how long
will it take them to complete production?
[in English] I wanna feel "me" again,
I wanna take my power back.
And I only wanna date for love, now.
I wanna be with a guy
who truly loves me for me
and not have any other intentions.
[laughs] Oh, my God. We have to go!
And what they say about Latin lovers
is not a lie.
[thudding]
[thudding]
- [thudding]
- [glass breaking]
- [woman] What are you doing?
- Nothing. You're fine.
Just change, Maria. We're late.
Anna Shay is half-Japanese
and half-Russian, and super wealthy.
Her money comes from weapons.
Her father sells bombs, g*ns,
defense technology.
And it's worth, like, a few billion.
[Maria] What are you doing, Anna?
- [Anna] Nothing.
- Anna.
[Anna] I'm fixing my closet.
Anyone's family
that makes weapons and tanks,
you don't wanna mess with them. No way.
- [Maria speaking Spanish indistinctly]
- Ah! Puta! What?
[Speaks Spanish]
It's okay. I'm good, I'm good.
Anna Shay is like a really,
you know, reclusive person.
So, sometimes you see a glimpse of her,
sometimes you don't.
- Can you help me to close this dress?
- [Anna] Yes.
I think it's very important to have fun.
In the last ten years,
I've kind of slowed down on it.
I wanted to spend my time
with my son and my family.
But then I realized that it was time
for me to do things for myself again.
[Maria] Oh, my God, Anna,
you have to call the construction people.
- No, Maria.
- [Maria] Why?
Because they're stupid.
You have to live for you.
So, I started actually going
to parties again.
One, two, three!
- Uh. I got it.
- [Maria] Oh, my God.
We have one life.
Live it to its fullest.
- Ah!
- Ah! [laughs]

Christine, Dr. Chiu! We need a picture.
[Kevin] It's just the biggest thing
I've ever been to in my life.
Oh, you look stunning.
She shut down
the whole Rodeo Drive. It's just amazing.
[Christine] Enjoy some dim sum.
[traditional Chinese music plays]
- Thanks. I got the hang of it.
- Perfect.
[Kane] Pretend you're having an orgasm.
[both laugh]
I love Chinese New Year.
The white New Year.
What do you get to celebrate?
You have a new goal in life,
you wanna lose weight.
You wake up with a hangover.
[chuckles] In the Chinese New Year,
you wake up with money.
You collect money in a red envelope.
Who doesn't want that?
[chuckles] Such a good holiday.
- [Christine] So glad you came!
- [Anna] Thank you for inviting.
I know it's so hard to nail you down
because you're...
Because I don't Instagram.
Well, 'cause you're hidden
under your furs and your…
- Stop. [laughs]
- …jewelry, like…
I feel that there's a very small circle
of affluent Asians in Los Angeles,
and we all know each other,
one way or another.
I actually met Anna in La Première
on an Air France flight
where we were in PJs and having caviar.
Are you ever gonna get married again?
- Are you in love with somebody that...
- No.
No? Boy, that was a quick "no."
No. Negative.
[chuckles]
I'm glad Anna showed up
to my Chinese New Year party.
She went to the bank
and pulled out her best diamonds to wear.
That's a sign of respect, right?
[Christine] Where are you staying
when you're in Paris?
- [Anna] Plaza.
- I always stay at the Plaza, too.
- You do?
- Mm-hmm.
How come I never see you?
I don't know.
I always have the presidential suite.
- [Anna] You do?
- Mm-hmm.
[Anna] Me too.
So…
Apparently we both always have
the presidential suite.
Yeah.
When I met Christine,
the person I met was down to earth,
she was fun,
and she had a lot to talk about.
It wasn't about superficial things.
We're gonna take a boat this summer
after Fashion Week.
[Anna] And over the years,
I started noticing a different Christine
that felt that she had to name drop.
We go to Dolce Gabbana Alta Moda,
and then we'll take the boat
around the coast.
But she has nothing to prove to me.
Friday, we're having a party.
- At… - [Anna] My house.
Oh, fun! Should I bring suitors?
- No!
- No?
Christine's the queen of Beverly Hills.
She's the queen of haute couture,
high jewelry, everything.
- [Anna] Disaster.
- I'll bring you variety.
- No, no, no!
- Yes.
Okay, fine,
they could just be pretty to look at.
And now Anna's back. So…
f*ck, there can't be two queens.
Christine might be like,
"Oh, my God. Don't touch my crown."
"Don't touch my Dolce and Gabbana crown."
Can't wait for your party.
And we should get back to mine.
- [Anna] Okay.
- Come eat some food.
Or, like, pretend to eat food.
[upbeat traditional Chinese music plays]
[guests chattering indistinctly]
[pop music plays]
♪ First come, first serve
Bon appétit ♪
♪ Yummy! With the right swerve

[Kelly] Hey. So what did your dad say?
Trying to get me back, as usual.
- What were they doing?
- They offered me another building!
My family's in oil and gas.
I never wanted to be involved
in the business,
'cause it's been done.
I'll always want to be in real estate.
Do you feel pressure with your family?
Okay, yes, because, first of all,
I quit college. My dad...
- f*ck college. Who needs college?
- f*ck college. Exactly.
[Kane] Jaime's money
comes from Silicon Valley,
and her dad's a wealthy billionaire.
Jaime's spending money, living her life,
riding horses, taking pictures.
Jackpot!
Thought I was gonna be an Olympic rider.
That was what I wanted to do so bad.
And we were so close to buying a barn.
But I didn't buy it,
and Eve Jobs bought it.
- And they're expensive ponies. They cost...
- Like 200,000 a pony, right?
And more. And you have to fly them, like...
- You have to fly ponies?
- My horses fly Emirates.
[laughing]
So then, I, like, realized
how much I loved fashion more.
And then my parents were like,
"Okay, Jaime, whatever."
- Kevin. Important question.
- [Kevin] What's that?
- How's your dating life?
- Depends who's asking.
- Mm, "depends who's asking". Good answer.
- Are you asking, Kelly?
- We're all asking.
- We're all asking.
How's... How's your dating life?
Uh, stagnant.
- [Kelly] How's your dating life?
- Yeah.
- So, about the horses...
- Kevin, you could serve the girl.
- [Kevin] I don't wanna serve the girl.
- [Jamie] He ain't serving people.
No, I believe in equality.
- Women can feed themselves.
- No, no, no, no.
- Perfect. Thank you.
- [Kevin] Awesome.
Not dating you. Not dating you.
- I'll still date you.
- [laughs]
[Jamie] Oh.
- But enough about me.
- [Kelly] Okay. What?
Are you single yet?
- Am I single yet? No, I'm...
- [chuckles] Almost.
After our last conversation,
she was on the verge of, like...
- Oh, what happened with...
- I was worried for her.
I've known Kelly for years,
and, like, she is always
having issues with Andrew. Always.
It's always like a roller coaster.
I don't know, I mean,
is it the make-up sex that's great?
I have no idea,
but it's like never a dull moment.
I feel like Andrew sometime, I don't know.
He gets a little crazy sometimes.
I'm gonna take
flirting Kevin away for a second,
- and bring real Kevin in.
- Okay.
Like, what the f*ck
do you get out of this relationship?
He doesn't sleep around,
he's never, like, you know, he's...
That's the basics!
If Kelly was single,
I would definitely be pursuing her.
Kelly is super-lady-boss.
She is really put together.
Super intelligent, successful,
and sexy at the same time.
But the problem is that most majority
of Beverly Hills, Los Angeles,
- don't have the basic.
- Right.
I see my friends having relationships,
and their husband is
openly cheating on them.
Me and Drew fight here and there,
but that's every couple, right?
There's no such thing
as a perfect relationship.
Um, we fight, we make up,
and, end of the day, I love him.
It's just so alarming for me to hear
that you will just end up with somebody,
despite the fact that you guys argue,
and he's like, oh, it's him,
because he doesn't cheat, and he's honest.
- I'm honest. I'm loyal.
- Yeah. [chuckles]
Perfect! You meet Kelly's criteria.
[hip hop music plays]
Let's test out some angles
for Kim and some lighting.
[upbeat music plays]
[Kelly] When she gets here,
I think she can lay here.
I take the best pictures on Instagram.
So our friend, Kim, asked Kelly and I
to take pictures for her.
[Kelly] The sun just came out.
Just for you.
[Kim] Perfect.
I asked Kane and Kelly
to help me take some photos for Instagram.
And my mom came along
'cause she likes to help me look good.
Every time she go DJ, I say,
"What do you wear today?"
I said, "Oh, my God.
- You look just like tomboy."
- [laughs]
Kim Lee is, like, a super famous DJ.
[electronic music plays]
[Kane] She's basically
like Asia's Calvin Harris.
I mean, she gets 50,000 every show,
and she's, like, number one hottest female
in Southeast Asia.
- What are you gonna wear? That's pretty.
- I just bought dresses.
- [Kane] Go get dressed.
- [Kelly] I'll go with her.
I'll spend time with Mama.
Okay. Um, where are you from?
- [Kim's mom] Vietnam.
- [Kane] Vietnam.
- [Kim's mom] How 'bout you?
- [Kane] Singapore.
Your daughter is famous in my country.
In Southeast Asia, she's really famous.
I ask my friend, "Kim Lee," they're like,
"Oh my God, you know Kim Lee?"
- [laughs]
- So you must... you have to be proud.
- You guys like it?
- [Kane] Wow, Kim.
Give me some arch.
Yeah, arch with your hand, like "Vogue."
Curve, curve, curve.
Do it. Bend it, like, yeah, curve.
Make sure it's sexy.
I love the relationship I have
with my mom. She's really fun.
- Show your skin. [laughs]
- [Kane] Yeah, show your... [laughs]
[Kim] She's always very supportive.
[Kim's mom] Go try another dress.
- [Kim] What's wrong with this one?
- How many you bring?
[Kim] I got, like, another one or two.
My Mom's always been like,
"Go out there and get it.
Work hard. Be independent.
And don't worry about any man.
They'll come along.
What's really important is you."
- Kim!
- I'm showing more.
- [Kelly] Way better.
- [Kane] What…
Yes. Beautiful.
But how come see the nipple?
Okay, well…
- [Kane laughs]
- You need to cover that. That's...
[all laugh]
[Kane laughs]
My mom is not like any other Asian mom.
Stand. Turn on the side. Stand like…
Like how? You show me.
- [Kane] Yeah, Mama, show her.
- Show me! How do you do it?
- [Kane] Yes, let's do it. Show it.
- Okay.
She wants me to be sexier,
and she's like,
"If you got it, flaunt it."
If you like to wear something on stage,
you can wear the coat or something.
- [Kim] Mm-hmm.
- And then throw.
- [Kelly] Whoo!
- [Kim's mom] What? That's my Kim.
- And you can DJ, and you can dance.
- [Kim] Mom!
Oh, my God. And then what?
- Just like that.
- [Kelly] Yeah, go, Mama!
[Kim's mom] Like that. [laughs]
All right. You win.
- Mama always wins.
- Oh, my God.
- [Kim] You win.
- [Kane laughs]
[relaxing acoustic music plays]
[Andrew]
I've never been here in this place.
[Kelly] Do you have any idea
what the surprise is?
- Will you tell me if you know?
- I hope we win the lottery.
[laughs]
Surprising Kelly is not easy.
But being in love, whoo,
and knowing how excited she's gonna be
when she understands fully what it is.
That's fuel.
- [Kelly] Hi! Hey!
- Hi!
- Finally.
- [Anna] Oh, my God.
[Kelly] Oh!
So I had this idea
that I would take Kelly and Andrew
to my favorite restaurant,
for her birthday.
And my favorite restaurant
is Maison du Caviar, in Paris.
I'm so blown away.
This is crazy. We're going to Paris.
I have to go to work, please.
My father really
never wanted me to have a job.
But, sometimes I…
think about what I'd like to do.
I love Air France.
So, I would like to be
a flight attendant today.
First of all,
what would you like to drink?
- I think we're good.
- Oh, thank God.
- [Kelly laughs]
- [Andrew] Yes.
Anna does things
that most people cannot get away with.
[French pop music plays]
We're home!
[Kelly] I bet Anna goes to Paris
more times in a year
than she goes to Silverlake.
Welcome.
Hello! I'm so happy to see you!
Florent I met in Paris,
who's an amazing, incredible person.
He was working for one of the Maisons,
and I would just go back and forth,
and back and forth to Paris,
and so we just became extremely close.
Hello?
Welcome home.
[Anna giggles]
The name of this suite
is Eiffel Tower Suite.
It's not for nothing. Have a look.
[Kelly] So we get in this fabulous hotel,
and her luggage start coming in.
I think there was ten bags.
And she's like, "You can wear this,
you can wear that."
You know, all these coutures,
fur, and just beautiful things.
And then we go shopping.
I gotta practice my, uh, my French.
Bonjour, madame.
[pop music plays]
[Kelly] Anna can pull this off.
Anna and I go to a bunch of boutiques
and beautiful stores, including Boucheron,
and, of course,
all the stores are closed just for her.
- [Florent] Tres bon.
- It's beautiful.
[Florent, in French]
You never get bored with Anna.
Of course,
prices don't exist in Anna's world.
The way she makes purchases
and has fun in the jewelry stores
is like a child in a candy shop.
[in English] Oh, wow,
look how pretty. They're so shiny.
[Florent] Which one do you prefer?
- Get this...
- You want this or the black one?
[Florent] More fashionable.
[Kelly] Anna buys me
a beautiful friendship ring.
I've got friendship rings in my past
when I was in high school,
and they're made out of plastic,
so I guess this is definitely an upgrade.
- Happy birthday.
- Happy birthday.
This is too much. You're a queen.
Okay, cool.
- So, did you find some good pieces?
- [Anna] Yes.
[phone chimes]
[Kelly] Oh, I forgot about my phone.
Anna, I'm so annoyed.
[Anna] Why?
'Cause Andrew just texted me,
and he's so upset that we left him.
I was like, "You were sleeping
and didn't know we were leaving."
[phone rings]
[phone rings again]
- [Andrew, over phone] Hello?
- Hi.
- [Andrew] What the f*ck is going on?
- [Kelly] I don't know.
What's going on with you?
[Andrew] Your lack of effort
drives me f*cking crazy.
How is that lack of effort?
[Andrew] 'Cause you can easily say,
"I'm not gonna leave this hotel
until I let Andrew know."
Jet lag sucks,
so when Anna asked me
to go shopping with her,
I thought I was doing Andrew a favor
by letting him sleep.
But I was wrong.
[Andrew] Would you want me
to do that to you? Yes or no?
- [Kelly] I don't... The things that you...
- [Andrew] Yes or no?
[Andrew] I don't want
to hear anything but "yes" or "no."
I wouldn't care.
[Andrew shouts] Yes or no? Keep it simple!
- [Kelly] You're overreacting.
- [Andrew] You think you're funny.
[shouts] I'm upset
I don't f*cking treat you that way!
[Kelly] Okay. Bye.
- [Andrew] Now you're gonna hang up on me?
- [phone beeps]
- Phew. I felt like I was at...
- [Kelly] Isn't it stressful?
Whoa, that's... This is very stressful.
First, I thought it was a joke
because nobody can be that stupid.
You're the one that plays games,
'cause you're immature.
- But don't play into his game.
- Yeah.
If he has issues, don't put it onto her.
There ain't no d*ck that good.
[sighs] I'll text him back in a bit.
Because if I start texting him,
it's just gonna be nonstop.
Or if I call him, it's gonna be nonstop.
Normally, he will want me to be in a room
with him 'til we work it out.
And sometimes it takes, like, eight hours.
[tense music plays]
- [Anna] Seriously?
- Yeah.
[phone rings]
[phone rings again]
[phone continues to ring]
[zen music plays]
[motors revving]
[hip hop music plays]
I haven't been able to sleep,
'cause I just feel like I need
to be more prepared
for earthquakes, fires, nuclear bombing.
Have you ever seen any of the movies
where cars are just stuck?
[Kane] Just stuck there.
So I'm like, I need a motorcycle.
- Or a jet. To get to the airport.
- I need something to get to private jets.
[chuckles] What are you talking about,
Christine? Why a motorcycle?
I'm... I'm just so confused.
You have six-inch Jimmy Choos,
wearing a pink feather bolero.
You're not gonna make it passed Bel Air.
[chuckles] Oh, my God,
you're getting me freaked out.
I have my bodyguards here
because I'm in the middle of moving
all of my jewelry
from the house into the bank safe.
But can you ride?
I mean,
it's kind of like a bicycle, right?
[chuckles] It's not a bicycle!
- Hi, sir. How are you doing?
- [Christine] No.
- Hi, I'm Kane.
- John.
[Kane] John, has anyone come in the store
thinking the world's gonna end,
to buy a Ducati?
Um, uh…
[laughs]
I mean, I've seen Christine in pictures
posing with a motorcycle.
[chuckles] I've not seen her ride one.
I think Christine
stands for "crazy."
Because that's a horrible idea.
I was surprised Anna showed up
at my Chinese New Year party.
I was surprised as well.
And she's always very, like,
- mysterious, and… - Yeah.
…almost a little mischievous, to me.
Plus, she saw you being
the queen of Beverly Hills she's like,
"Hey, I need some spotlight."
I like to think she was trying
to impress me
by taking out all her big stones,
because she didn't want
to wear her itty-bitty ones.
[both laugh]
- Can I see some of your stuff?
- Do you wanna see?
[Kane] I would love to see some.
Let me see. Let me see. Let me see!
- Oh, my gosh.
- [Christine] It's cute, isn't it?
- It's, like, Louis Vuitton high jewelry?
- [Christine] It is.
Do you mind?
- So, does Gabe put this on for you?
- [Christine] Yeah.
- What do you think?
- Beautiful.
I think Anna has something similar.
Maybe I should wear it
to her dinner party.
In the world of high jewelry,
not everyone is invited.
You have to really earn your way there.
Unfortunately for Anna,
she needs to realize
that she's not the only one
in the game anymore.
I don't think she... I don't know.
If you wear that necklace,
just don't mention it.
Just kind of twirl in it and…
Twirl my way into her party?
Like, "Hi, Anna, thank you for having me,"
and like, do it like... [laughs]
"It was really nice to see you."
- "Hi. Bye, Anna."
- "Hello!" [laughs]
- [Kane] Exactly!
- [Christine giggles]
[introspective music plays]
[Kelly] I don't feel like
I did anything wrong.
I honestly did not even think
it would bother you at all,
where you would even go there.
And you got so mad.
- Correct.
- And so upset.
[Andrew] So, I overreacted.
I exploded like a volcano. Okay?
I haven't figured out the exact,
best strategy to deal with Drew
when he gets
in these bad mood or episodes.
Unfortunately, this is not the first time
Drew's yelled at me
or spoke to me this way.
Can you tell me how you were feeling
or what caused you to...
I just felt there was a huge lack of,
uh, honoring our relationship.
You were asleep, tired,
and grumpy this morning
'cause you needed sleep. You didn't sleep.
If I feel like it was a really big issue,
and I sincerely did something wrong,
I'm the first to apologize.
[sighs] I'm sorry.
[soft music plays]
I overreacted, and I'm sorry.
I'm not happy with my actions,
I'll be honest with you.
I raised my voice at you.
And pushed you away.
And we're both still learning.
We have a lifetime to learn, and…
[crying] I wanna learn it with you.
[sniffles]
- I love you, babe. I'm sorry.
- [Kelly sniffles]
I stick it through with Andrew
because I think his intention
is really good,
and I feel like he has a good heart.
- [Andrew sniffles]
- [Kelly] It's okay.
There is a lot of times I wanna give up,
and I feel like Andrew only has me.
So, I don't want to abandon him, and, um,
I know he wants to change,
he just doesn't know how to.
But, I think there is hope.
- [sniffs]
- [Kelly kisses]
[upbeat music plays]
It's a nice, beautiful day,
and we need to get our drink on. [shrieks]
[laughs]
Ladies.
- Did you forget your pants?
- [Jamie] What happened?
This is a bathing suit.
- What's wrong with this?
- Kevin!
[giggles]
[in high pitch] Kim, you look so hot.
- Thank you. I always do.
- How are you?
- Good to see you.
- Haven't seen you.
[Jamie] All right,
well, the pool's all yours.
It looks... It looks very, very shallow.
- Why aren't you coming in?
- 'Cause I forgot my swimsuit.
It's in a different area of my closet,
and I just forgot when I was packing.
It's in a different walk-in closet?
It actually is.
- It's in a different part of my closet.
- [sarcastically] That sucks.
So, how much you paying for this?
Only $19,000 a month.
- What?! "Only?"
- [Jamie laughs] Uh-huh.
How much do you pay?
All-inclusive?
Including high-speed Internet,
my own room…
- Your own room?
- [Kevin] …a shared bathroom.
- Oh, you're with other people.
- [Kevin] Yeah, I'm with other people.
In the heart of LA.
In the heart of LA.
I pay 1,000 a month.
That's not even a pair of shoes.
You make $19,000 a month to pay this rent?
No, but I have a trust and everything.
A trust!
Oh, wonderful. I need that.
I'm always the guy
who stuck out in a crowd,
just because, growing up in Philadelphia,
I was the only Asian.
So here, I don't have fancy jewelry,
I'm not wearing
designer clothes all the time,
and that's what makes me stick out.
Oh no! Kev, don't come in here.
I didn't say... [laughs]
- Kev, get away from me.
- Yeah?
- Kevin, my hair!
- It's salty.
But sometimes, I feel like the group
is really stiff at times,
and I think being the odd man out
stirs the cage a little bit.
I am so glad I'm not in there right now.
- [laughs] Oh, my God. Stop! No.
- [Kim] Go, Jaime!
I'm not getting in the pool.
- [laughs]
- Come on, Jaime! Let's go, Jaime.
[Jamie shrieks]
- Oh, my God. [laughs]
- My chin. You just kneed me in the chin!
Oh, my God.
Whoo! Whoo!
[bossa nova music plays]
- [Kane] Hi. How are you?
- How are you?
- Isn't he sexy? So handsome, isn't he?
- Oh, my gosh.
[Kane] Oh, my God.
Look at your new hair! Love it.
Anna's house looks like something
from a fantasy movie.
You just think, "Oh, my God.
Only Anna lives here?" [chuckles]
I like having people over
to my house for dinner, too.
I'm just not used to
one server for each guest there.
[chuckles] She's amazing.
[guests cheer] Yeah!
- [Anna] Hello.
- Hi, Anna.
[man kisses] You look…
- [Kelly] Hi!
- [Anna] Hi!
- Oh, my goodness. I missed you.
- [Anna] How are you? I missed you, too.
- Okay, look.
- Okay.
I'm really sorry I got so upset.
- With what?
- With Drew.
I was so thankful you were there for me.
I think he deserved it a little bit.
- No, no. I think he deserves a lot. Okay?
- Okay. [chuckles]
I held back.
- [guests chattering indistinctly]
- [jazz music playing]
- What are you having?
- Caviar.
- Really good for men.
- Why?
Yeah. Natural Viagra.
- [Kane] Really? No. Really?
- Yeah. No, Google it.
[Kane] So, Cherie and Jessey
are really good friends.
I love Cherie, but she needs
to tone down on her filters.
Oh, my God, Cherie.
You look like Asian Avatar!
[Cherie] Oh, my God. It's so good.
I want another one.
[Kane] Is it an aphrodisiac?
[Jessey] Yep.
Why do you think she's not feeding me?
[Cherie and Kane chuckle]
[Kane] They're not married,
and they have a kid.
And Cherie's super pregnant right now.
So that's super rare in Asian culture.
Ready? Open, open, open!
[squeals and laughs]
[guests chattering indistinctly]
[blues music plays]
- [Christine] Hello, hostess.
- [Anna] Hello.
Thank you again for having us.
[Anna] Are you kidding?
Thank you for coming.
I don't know if you recognize this.
- I have that same... Yes.
- You have the same one?
Oh, my God!
I decided to wear my gorgeous
Louis Vuitton high jewelry
pink sapphire and diamond necklace
to Anna's dinner party,
and hopefully… [chuckles]
…flatter the host.
So, you'll let me know
if you wear yours, ever,
and I'll let you know
if I wear mine. [chuckles]
[Kane] Oh, my God.
I can't believe she wore the necklace.
Christine, girl, you got some ba*ls.
[Anna] It's not a big deal
she's wearing a diamond necklace
and I have the same diamond necklace,
but she enjoyed
showing me that she had it.
If she's trying to make a point
with the necklace,
then I can't be bothered
to be around Christine.
I don't feel this need to compete.
I find it fiercely annoying.
Okay, so, Christine…
This one goes on the end.
- 'Cause those two at the end deserve it.
- [man] Yeah, you got it.
Okay!
[Christine] This is beautiful.
Kevin, Paul, Eddie.
- I love my seat. You see your name, Kane?
[Kane] Where?
[Christine] Somebody…
Christine!
The others
are at the other side of the table.
Oh.
How come Christine's not sitting here?
[funky music plays]
[Anna] Okay. I wanna make sure
everybody has their seats.
[woman] Yeah, hon.
- Split up.
- Yeah.
Where is Anna sitting?
[laughs]
He keeps talking to me in French.
I'm like, "Hey, I don't speak French."
[Anna, Maria and Florent laugh]
- [Anna] Thank you.
- [Maria] I should.
- Love this necklace. Fabulous.
- [Christine] Oh, thank you. Thank you.
[man] Love your necklace.
- Hello.
- [Dr. Chiu] Hi.
[in French]
When I saw Christine at this party,
I recognized the necklace
straight away and thought,
"drama."
[guests chattering indistinctly]
[in English] I wonder
why she sat us on opposite ends.
- I don't know.
- So strange.
[Anna] I figured,
if she can't figure it out on her own,
then I'm not gonna explain it to her.
The way I look at it,
if Christine wants to play games,
then bring it on.
- Do you suppose it's a paperweight, or...
- Yes.
See? It's a paperweight.
For my Chinese New Year party,
Dr. Chiu and I sponsored
an orphan in China
for every guest in attendance.
But Anna gives me a paperweight.
- Do we share one?
- [Dr. Chiu] I think one's enough.
- Oh, Gabe.
- [Dr. Chiu laughs]
When Anna's bored
of playing these childish games,
I would love to introduce her
to better uses of her time and resources
than rearranging table seating.
[Kane] Anna, cheers! Cheers. Thank you
for having us. Thank you so much.
- Something is happening down there.
- [Dr. Chiu] Yeah.
[Kane] Whoa, what a way to send a message.
"Christine f*cked with me. Sit there."
Remember Beyonce said,
"Everything's in a box to the left"?
[chuckles]
Christine was to the left, in a box.
And I'm like, "Oh, my gosh,
this is World w*r III, but more fun!"
