The Real L Word s01e08 Episode Script
Runway Bride
The first time that I had sex with a woman was such an emotional experience for me and I did cry.
I've had girls cry after sex.
The ones that have, I don't know what to do.
Like, shit.
What? What the fuck kind of question is that? When girls cry during sex awkward.
I don't even know what to do.
Uh, do people cry I should ask you that.
Like, why are they crying? It's supposed to be a happy moment.
I did not cry the first time I had sex with a woman.
Um, I think I had a really big smile on my face.
Yeah, Jill cries.
I have cried during sex.
It's not often, but I have.
What do you do? You like can't get out of the room fast enough.
I think when that little sensitivity chip goes off, it's not unexpected for me to cry.
No, thank God, I do not cry when I come.
Is that why guys keep tissues next to their beds? This whole time I didn't know? I thought it was for something else.
Previously on The Real L Word So L.
A.
Fashion Week is this coming up weekend.
It's like nutso.
My balls are on the line with my designers and my big top attendees.
Pull up every fucking email you sent to Brian! Mikey's getting totally frantic.
Pull them all up and fucking send them back to him! - Wow! Baby, I do.
- Say "I do"? From the moment that I got out of the car with Jill, I knew that this was where we were getting married.
Now I need Jill to be persuaded.
We have too it now or else it's not gonna be there anymore.
Oh, really? If we don't jump on this, it will be gone.
- Now you're being unfair.
- Why? Because you're just coming up with reasons to pressure me.
Hey, mom, how do I convince you to come out for my birthday? I want you to meet Stamie.
Let's play that one by ear.
I have my 30th birthday coming up.
It's a big deal for me, but I'm not really sure as to whether she's gonna come or not.
My mom's gonna love you.
Hopefully, she comes out for my birthday.
We'll see.
It's a lot of pressure, being the first girlfriend her mom meets.
I'm a keeper aren't I? Yeah.
We have something together.
I don't know where it's gonna go.
Hey, you're such a fucking pain in my ass.
- Why? - In my ass.
Come.
Where? There's a party going on that I'm hosting.
I should really be out there.
But you know, I am a pussy slut.
They're in the same fucking room right now? Scarlett, do you not realize that? I think tonight I let a lot of people down.
She felt pain on her side, and then she couldn't walk and she said to call 911 'cause the pain was really bad.
My grandmother was rushed to the hospital.
I can't imagine life without her.
Nat, you're being a bitch.
You're being a heartless fucking I'm a heartless whatever.
Okay.
Heartless.
Rose is kinda bitchy all day, which is understandable.
But I can't read her mind, and I don't know what I need to do for her.
My ex-girlfriend Angel knows my grandma's sick and just sent me a text.
I wanna see Angel, 'cause she kinda makes me feel better sometimes.
I don't care about her ex.
I care about other girls, not her ex.
That's your problem.
That's who she's with.
Her own girlfriend can't fucking find her.
What what's going on? You know, given the fact that Natalie's not being as supportive as I want her to be during this time I mean, she and I have zero connection at this point.
Have fun.
I'm feeling like shit.
You know, I'm really feeling bad about things.
And there's someone I need to see.
Angel and I never really had a chance to have closure in our relationship.
You know, two weeks later, I end up with Natalie, and we never broke up.
I think there's things that we both want to say to one another because our breakup was so bad.
You and I had a very, very chaotic crazy, toxic relationship.
I think a lot of that was because of the fact that, you know, you cheated.
Why did you want me to come meet you here? You know that you and I have already established that we would be there for each other.
We never established this when we broke up.
When we broke up, it was a horrible breakup.
Yeah.
But I mean afterward, we, you know After what? Recently, not afterwards.
- Since my grandma's been sick.
- Since your grandma's Thank you for that.
I always known that you'd call me if anything ever happened to your grandma.
And I always knew you would be there if it did.
Well, your grandma's good now.
- She's safe and sound.
- You're still here.
I'm not still here.
- I'm not still here.
- That's bullshit.
- No, I'm not.
- That's bullshit.
No.
Rose I know you better than anybody does.
You moved on really fast, right? - Yeah, I did.
- Okay.
- Why is that? - I don't know.
I just did.
You don't know? Rebound.
You can't be alone.
Right? You're still the same.
You'll never change.
Come on, let's go.
I'll walk you to your car.
Angel kind of just makes me feel better.
She kind of puts things in perspective, and she's just strong in that way.
And I never thought I would miss anything from her, but, uh, I do miss that.
What do you want, Rose? Like what do you like seriously Come in the car.
Okay, look, here's the thing.
Here's the thing that you have to understand.
I am trying to be as real as I possibly can be across the board.
- About what? - About everything.
- About what? - About you, about everybody.
About what? What are you being real about? I feel like I was doing so well without you in my life.
And the moment you get a sense that I'm fucking actually moving on, you come back.
I didn't even know you were moving on.
I just feel like you always do this.
- It's so typical of you.
- You're one of my best friends, and that and and I sometimes I need you.
What do you want me to do? It's always about you and what you need.
It's never about anything else.
I I'm done.
Go do what you do best.
And make amends with your girlfriend and tell her you needed "closure" to carry on your rapport with her.
I know this line.
Just go.
Okay.
I'd rather just get it out of the way.
Well, I don't wanna do it now, and I'll help you do it later.
'Cause you're not gonna be able to do it by yourself.
I'm just saying you're gonna end up spilling lube-covered corn all over the yard.
The only person that takes care of Whitney besides her sister and her mom is me.
Why don't you just get a snack, take a little rest and forget about that for a little while? And I hold Whitney to a little bit of higher expectations when it comes to meddling in love relations with people that I'm related to.
- I meant to, um - No.
None? I don't know about that.
After the White Trash Party, Whitney tells me that Romi raped her.
Come on.
Who do you think I am? Do you think I'm that dumb? It's consensual, obviously, because you did it.
I love Whitney so much that even when she does something that I think is ridiculous or that pisses me off, three's also an equal part of me that wants to console her.
But she hurt Tor again.
Uh, that's a no.
Let's call Camilla.
Let's get all the big things out of the way.
Today is the day that I am changing this whole wedding venue situation.
- Why are we calling Camilla? - Because she sent us an email.
Oh, we have to look at the new location she sent.
I definitely am worried that the house is gonna go bye-bye if we don't make a decision.
I mean, I love that house.
We tend to have disagreements like this because I am so decisive and she does need a minute.
And wish that our wedding planner would have like saved that one for the end, because, you know, if she knows my wife-to-be, we need to exhaust everything prior.
Could you pull up Camilla's two other places, please? By the way, I'm not gonna say a thing.
I mean, we could have a cocktailer up there.
Wait, stop.
Baby, that looks haunted! This house is crazy.
But it looks like it smells a little bit, right? I love how you were going to sit quietly in the corner.
- Sorry.
- What's the next option? Let's see if you can keep your lips pursed.
Do you wanna get married there? We might as well get married at this house.
Can I call Camilla? It's so hard to get angry with you.
You know, I know Nik's still set on the original house.
But the house is a bigger slice of the pie than I had anticipated.
So that's really my biggest concern.
Can you be serious for a minute? Could you can you? I'm worried about other areas falling short - because this is such a - I promise you Without adding without adding to I promise it won't add.
The budget will be the budget.
I promise you.
These are large checks to write for one day.
- It's hard.
- But it's a wedding.
I know.
It's just still hard to swallow.
But in the scheme of things, it has to feel magical, and I feel like when we got to that location, you and I both were like Right? Yes.
Okay.
- Okay? - Yeah.
- Really? - It's gorgeous.
Nik wore me down.
She's a very smart woman.
I think she's a very savvy businesswoman, so I trust her judgment.
And I was starting to just get exhausted.
- It's gorgeous.
- It is.
It's that's the problem.
Nothing's as beautiful.
Element Weddings.
This is Camilla.
Hi, Camilla.
It's Jill and Nikki.
Thank you for sending the other options.
We looked through them.
Nothing compares.
It's just so gorgeous and it's gonna make my bride very happy.
- Hey, congratulations.
- Yay! - One piece of the puzzle down.
- Big, huge phone hug.
Yeah, big phone hug back.
- Thank you.
- All right, my dears.
Talk to you soon.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye.
We have a place.
- Are you happy? - Yes.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
I'm gonna marry you at that place.
'Cause when we got out of the car, I knew it.
You knew it, huh? Nuts! It's amazing what people can do in six to eight hours.
We only have two days until Fashion Week, and this is gonna be a huge night.
I'm really hoping it all goes off without a hitch.
All right! It's the last leg! It's so exciting.
The tent is up.
The roof is up.
We're getting the sidewalls on, the flooring's being laid over there.
It's a complete bustle of activity here at L.
A.
Fashion Weekend.
This is 100% my biggest production ever to stand under a 10,000-square-foot tent with a 20-foot rise in the center of the ceiling is fucking insane.
I'm so excited.
All right, guys.
Amazing job.
Thank you so much for everything.
I appreciate all your help.
You wanna say hi to my mom? No.
In my heart, I say hi to her every day.
I say thank you.
I thank her uterus every day.
I've had a few phone calls with my mom recently about me being gay, and I feel that, you know, we've started to make some sort of, you know, progress.
But I'm not really sure as to whether she's gonna come to my birthday.
Do you know it took my dad ten years to come out here - to visit me? - Why so long? I don't think he wanted to know too many details.
- And the first time - Like don't ask, don't tell? Yeah.
And then the first time they came out here, they stayed with Julie and I, which I was like, "oh, my God.
My parents are in the other room.
" Was it awkward at all? Like did you guys - just fit into the groove? - No, my parents were awesome.
It made me so happy.
It was awesome, though.
- It was? - To finally have my parents and my girlfriend in the same house? I can't wait for that.
I want that with my parents.
I think it almost happens in every coming out story Kids struggle with telling their parents or friends and for me, at least, my mom is the world to me.
You know, it was a little disappointing to hear her reaction at first, but it was important to me to get through that and talk through it, because, you know, parents have a coming out process as well.
Natalie hasn't come home.
She's staying at her mom's house.
Now I have to make up with her, you know.
And I'll probably have to do some major Oscar award-winning acting.
Hey, come here.
You okay? Yeah.
- You don't wanna hug me? - I'm hugging you.
I am hugging you.
How's your grandma? Um, she looks good.
She's good.
What? You and I.
The things you said, like, you're gonna go be with Angel.
Really? - I didn't even say that.
- That's what you said you said.
Yeah, but that wasn't what was meant.
But either way, it's so easy for you to drop everything when you're mad.
I didn't drop everything.
I went to go be with myself and like take care of me for a second, you know what I mean, which I never do.
You can't do that.
- Can't do what? - You can't just leave.
I always tell Rose when things like this happen, you know, how would you react or feel if I did this to you? She understands at that point.
Like, you're right, I would probably dump your ass or be gone.
Why would you do that to me? Just giving you a love tap.
Even if we're fighting and even if you need to be alone just talk to me.
'Cause then my mind goes crazy, and I don't know where the fuck you're at.
And I can only assume.
You okay? Why don't you just come home? Okay.
Hey, guess what.
Me and you need to fucking haul those lube bags tonight.
Right.
We have to like make a secret mission to that dumpster together.
Where's the shopping cart? We should put them in the shopping cart.
- Oh, shit! - Yeah, uh-huh.
- Oh, man.
- Whitney, I'm gonna There's a ho there's a big hole.
Yeah.
What do you want me to do? - Oh, damn it.
- And hurry.
Pew! I'm gonna barf.
Oh, my God, it smells so bad! Alyssa, grab the side of the bag.
Ugh! Oh, yeah, that's good.
That's good.
Ooh Holy hell, that's heavy! Let's wheel this lube down the street! Time for lube wheelin'! We're just two young ladies Lubes ahoy! We don't need that cart.
- Fuck the cart.
- No, no, leave the cart.
- Leave it.
- Fuck the cart.
- We'll get another cart.
- We're outta here.
When you guys are trying stuff on, could you just slip a pair of heels on? 'Cause it totally changes the shape of your body.
Hey! - How are you doing? - This is Ava.
Hello, young lady.
I've been looking forward to meeting you.
Hello, Miss Locklear.
How are you? Nice to meet you.
Heather Locklear's daughter Ava Sambora is gonna be walking in Richie Sambora's fashion show for White Trash Beautiful, and I'm super-excited about it.
- Mrs.
Locklear.
- Call me Heather.
Is that okay if I call you Heather? Uh Miss Heather.
No.
My heart's been pounding all day.
- Oh, you're so sweet.
- You have no idea.
I had the biggest crush on you when I was a kid.
T.
J.
Hooker Oh, ho! Yeah! So Ava's never done runway before.
So we teamed her up with one of the models.
Hannah from Photogenics was helping her on her runway walks.
The whole trick is about leaning back.
It's kind of weird, and it feels like you're kind of walking on your heels more than on your toes? What a beautiful daughter you have amazing.
I couldn't be more excited about this show.
You have no idea.
Well Baby! - Hi, babe! - What This is for you! - Oh ho! - I love you! Surprise.
Hi, babe.
How are you? - Good.
How are you? - Good.
Oh, baby, thank you very much.
Sorry.
This is Heather.
Heather, this is Raquel.
- Nice to meet you.
- I know Raquel she really wanted to meet Heather today.
The roses and the balloons it's all just a farce.
All right, guys, come on.
Let's practice Ava's walk.
Let's give her one more shot down the runway here.
Bring it, girl! Yeah Oh! Oh, my God! Gave me the look.
Did you see? We tell her, you know, she's a rock star's daughter.
She's gonna bring it on that runway.
- I'm super-excited about it.
- You've been amazing.
I'm so excited to see you.
- Bye, guys.
- Okay.
Thank you.
So nice.
And then, uh there's an L.
A.
migration from San Francisco happening, and let me tell you I think you triggered it.
- You expedited the process.
- Yeah, expedited it.
'Cause I talked to Sara today, and she you know she moved out.
She's staying around so she's in a rush to get outta there, hopefully.
Tor and Romi are way overly dramatic, and I realize that with Sara, I get this drama-free hookup, and at this point, that's what I want.
Like that's what I like about Sara is like she gets me more.
She's not so "who are you with, what are you doing are you hooking up?" Is she coming to dinah shore with us? Yes! Ha! It's gonna be fucking amazing.
Dinah shore is in about two weeks and is basically just a gathering of the lesbians.
It's technically like a girls gone wild golf weekend, but does any golfing go on during this time? I don't think so.
I'm gonna have to tell - Romi.
- Romi.
Because honestly, if Sara comes down, I wanna be with Sara.
I just genuinely like her.
- I know you do.
- Like a lot.
And it's weird.
And I kind of hate it.
I'm not gonna lie.
I would fucking hate it.
You're losing control.
Ah! It's a beautiful thing for me to watch.
Ha! I'm worried about Romi.
- You are? - Yeah.
You can't you can't entertain that idea anymore? - I know.
- I think with Romi you need to be the smart one.
If she doesn't think with her head, she thinks with her heart.
You have to be more conscious about her feelings, you know? - She's my friend, like it hurt - Yeah, I know! I think Sara moving here is gonna make Whitney have to make a decision.
Because neither Romi nor Victoria have the the kind of dominant character that Sara has, and I don't think she's as tolerant for bullshit.
Stop entertaining the idea.
You already know it's up in your head.
Condition with Romi accordingly.
Respectfully end it as lovers, and try to be her friend.
Zip it up.
Or I'll be pissed.
I'm being honest.
Then act like it.
I am! With Romi.
Hey, mommy.
How are you? I'm okay.
Okay.
What's up, yo? Yeah, remember I told you I might come see you for your birthday? I don't think I can come.
- Oh, really? - Yeah.
Are you sure you can't come? My mom's just not ready to meet Stamie.
But it sucks.
All I want to do is scream at the top of my lungs and show her this amazing girl who has these amazing children.
But she just she's not there yet.
Hold on a sec.
That's all right.
I guess I'll still be 30 then.
Oh Aah! - Got you! - Mom! - Got you! - What are you doing? Got you! Oh.
You smuggled this on the plane? Yeah.
You're not gonna invite me in? I'm freezing.
- Come on.
- It's so cold in here.
- What are you doing here? - Surprising you! My mom completely caught me by surprise.
I had no idea.
Oh, my heart's going like a mile a minute right now.
She came out here unannounced, knowing that she's gonna have to deal with the gay issue, meet Stamie.
I think that's a huge step for her.
I give her a lot of credit.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know you were coming.
I would have kind of cleaned up a little.
So tell me, what are you doing now, job? Work's good.
I've never been busier.
It's weird.
People have been approaching me to model again.
I always want you to model, remember? I know.
And I just did a photo shoot for this magazine called BOUND Magazine.
- Wow.
- It's a new magazine, and it's very like a, you know, upscale sort of sort of a women's magazine, but I think it's geared towards lesbians, so Wow.
I'm not trying to change your mind or change your way of life or change anything.
No, you're not.
But I'm trying to have you understand sort of my thinking and my actions and more of I know you know who I am very well, but more of who I am, and every part of it.
You know what I mean? So I I wanna include you in that.
Mm Well, you have to realize that sometimes when you talk to me, I was avoiding this conversation, because remember when you told me you told me once, and I put it like on the side because Yeah, no shit.
That was a while ago.
A while ago.
- I know.
- As a mother If you would be in my shoe, you would think the same way.
- Um I don't know.
- You never been a mother.
Yeah, I don't I don't think I would have, though.
I think all the mothers out there would think the same way.
Think that I don't necessarily need for you to accept all of it right now.
All I need is to know that you're open wait.
All I need to know is that yore open and that you're able to listen to me and that you want to be part of that part of my life as well.
I'm going like step by step like I told you.
You know what I mean? Slowly.
- Baby steps.
- I know.
It's hard for me because you create this thing, you know, this image about your daughter.
And you want your children to meet somebody nice, get married, have children and all that.
What changed for you? Because I see a big change in you.
We not only mother and daughter, but we are best friends.
- We are best friends.
- I know.
You have me speechless for the first time ever.
I been waiting a few years for this, and I think that's probably one of the sweetest moments that we've had in a very long time.
It's like that breaks my heart, so Um Stamie, who I'm dating, has a comedy show.
Are you okay coming? It's not a huge deal to you? It's for you.
Stamie is a close person to Tracy.
I supposed to meet her tonight.
Like I told you, step by step.
Um I respect you.
You respect me.
But we do need a little respect.
Like I don't wanna see her holding hands, kissing.
She have to give me my space, respect me as a mom.
I'm taking it slowly, you know what I mean? Like I told you, it's hard.
But I think I'm moving forward.
I know.
It's scary.
For Valentine's day, Nicole bought us dance lessons so we can learn how to dance for the wedding.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
It's an adorable gift.
It's thoughtful and very creative.
But now that the two of us are actually going to it, I think we're both like oh, shit.
We have a report card.
Hi! - Ladies.
Excited? - Mm-mm.
- No? Why? - Okay, yeah.
Yeah? It's gonna be fun.
We're not having a traditional wedding.
But still, we need to look like we know what we're talking about when we're dancing at our wedding.
So we have these private dance lessons at the studio where my mom takes her lessons.
What I'm gonna do today, I'm gonna assess you to see where you're at.
Oh, I'm at the bottom of the barrel.
That's okay.
No.
That's okay.
And who's the leader and who's the follower? - She's the leader.
- Ha ha ha! - You're the leader? - You have to ask that question? Jill should be the leader.
I lead in everything.
I don't wanna lead on the dance floor.
You don't want me to lead.
It's like the blind leading the blind.
Are we ready? Okay.
So we're gonna start with a box.
Step, one, step to the side.
Side.
Close your feet.
There ya go.
That's it.
Here we go again.
And forward left, one two, three.
Back with your right.
One, two, three.
It's ridiculous the two of us are such beginners.
I mean, we have to learn how to do a box step.
How was I absent that day when they taught that in gym class, you know? So what we have to do now, we have to dance that together.
- With - Okay.
With one another.
For some reason to women dance slow dancing together feels a little strange to me.
I can't put my finger on it.
Just hold her hand.
This goes on her back.
On her back, on her back, on her back, on her back like this.
Close your fingers.
By far the most humbling of humbling experiences I've ever had.
Did not get the dance gene.
- One to the side.
- No, you did not get it.
You did not get it either.
You did not get it either.
Listen, twinkle toes - One, two - Now I wanna step 'Cause I don't wanna learn anymore.
- Three.
- Wait Let me turn it up a little bit, just 'cause you And then we're gonna be those two women dancing.
It's so gay! It's there's a couple of things at play here.
It's just gay.
I I'm sorry.
Why would you subject us He's wonderful, but this We never had one lesson, so we'll have one lesson.
Dance lessons were the worst idea I've ever had.
I'm so sorry.
Did I apologize? - Not enough.
- So terribly sorry.
We'll play hip-hop music when we come out.
There'll be much less pressure.
Feels slightly awkward.
I just wanna put that out there.
Oh, my God! The steps.
Oh, my God.
We're going to Stamie's comedy show tonight.
- Tracy.
- What? It's about you change this car.
Come on.
My grandmother taught me that life's not the same without humor.
And I actually see a lot of my grandmother in Stamie.
And I think that's something that attracts me to her.
So I'm hoping that my mom sees that also.
The funny thing is, it's like she spends like four hours before her show just sort of getting in that mode.
And she's probably gonna get thrown off by seeing you.
But she doesn't know who I am, so - No.
- She might not think I'm there.
- Well - If you come in, and I just sit She's gonna be like, "who is this other woman?" This is the first time my mom's met anybody that I've, you know, dated.
I am really excited but also really nervous and I sort of I'm in this position now where I wanna protect Stamie too.
She has no clue what she's in for.
I'm a little worried.
It's like Clash of the Titans.
I don't know what's gonna happen.
I gotta call Stamie.
Hi.
Hello! What are you doing, getting ready? Where are you, babe? I'm on my way to you right now.
I have a little surprise.
- You got me another cupcake? - No, it's not a cupcake.
It's a little bigger than a cupcake.
Somebody was delivered to my doorstep.
My mom's here! What? I'm telling her.
I don't care.
My mom's here, and she's coming to your comedy show.
Talk.
Talk.
Come on, ma.
She's gonna think I'm crazy.
My mom's coming.
I'm not kidding around.
You're the jokester, not me.
She doesn't believe me.
You know, this morning my grandmother, I got the news that she's getting out of the hospital.
So I'm looking forward to going over to her house and seeing that she's settled in and she's okay.
The only time I go to my grandmother's is when my mom's not there.
Because our tension is just so it's really bad.
But with what has happened I think right now I should put, you know, our drama aside and just be there for my grandmother and my family.
- Hi, mom, how are you? - Hi.
My mother and I, you know, we just had a really big falling out.
My mom is real overbearing, and we haven't spoken to each other in nine months.
It's been a while.
I'm sure my grandmother's constantly reminded of the drama.
- I'm so glad that mom's home.
- I know, me too.
I haven't seen you, tia.
Okay.
- How you doing? - I'm happy.
- I'm very happy.
- Me too.
She looks good.
Later on I want you to say you're sorry to your mom.
- I will.
- You know - just to make things okay.
- I will.
Tell her, "mom, you know what, I'm sorry.
" - Okay.
- You need to apologize.
You know? Bury the hatchet.
Life goes on.
She knows I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
You know what, Rose? I'm gonna tell you something.
- I don't wanna talk about it.
- Listen to your mother.
All right? I love you with all my heart.
And you know that.
I've always been there for you no matter what.
You know I've always been there for you no matter what.
Okay? My forgiveness to you is to let go of the hurt - that you caused me, okay? - Okay, let's let it go.
Because my love for you is unconditional.
Ma, she told me she's sorry.
- Okay? - Okay.
- I'm willing to forgive her.
- Okay.
Let's let it go.
- All right.
- Okay.
I love my daughter unconditionally.
She's my baby.
I accept her lifestyle.
And I was really looking forward for her to accepting that she was disrespectful and me waiting for her to one day come and say she was sorry.
You know, I held on to that for many, many months.
And she did, and that was really rewarding.
Okay? I think if it wasn't for, you know, my grandmother having gotten sick, I probably wouldn't have found myself in an emotional place to be as accepting or forgiving or wanting to move on.
But, um, you know, things happen for a reason.
That's what life's about, so it worked out for, I guess, everybody.
- Hi! - Hi! Hi, how are you? - Hi.
- This is mom.
Hi.
I'm Stamie.
- Nice to meet you.
- Very nice meeting you too.
- Welcome.
- You didn't believe me.
- No.
- Really? No.
This is a surprise, boy.
All right.
I'm gonna go start the show now.
You're all set over there.
- You good? - I'm good.
That was painless, right? I only met her for five seconds, but I really think I have an uphill battle.
Nothing against her.
I mean, it's just an uncomfortable situation.
I'm Tracy's first girlfriend that she's met, so Whoo-hoo! Lucky me! Stamie Karakasidis, everybody! Hi, everybody.
How are you tonight? Thanks for, um, hanging out.
I recently broke up.
People are like, "how are you nice to your ex?" I'm like, "she's the mother of my kids.
"I have to be nice to her.
" But I don't have to like who she's with, right? You gotta act how you want your children to act.
So every time we see her, we're always like she's French so we're always like, "bonjour, cunt face.
" So, you know, when you date someone, you try to do fun things.
We went and saw puppetry of the penis anyone? People are like, "what are you going to see puppetry of the penis for?" And I'm like "Just 'cause I don't want it in my mouth doesn't mean I don't wanna see it in the shape of a hamburger.
" I didn't prep my mom at all as to what.
Stamie's comedy's like.
It's very raw.
You know, it was kind of fascinating.
Because I have two sons, and the size I'm comfortable with is like this big, you know? Thank you, guys.
Good night.
This is a big step for me.
I don't want things to just one, two, three, you know, and expect me to just accept everything in one shot.
Stamie Karakasidis, everybody.
Stamie, um she's Tracy's, um um best friend.
I can't do this thing.
- You're nervous.
- I'm so not nervous.
Really.
Stop scratching your neck.
I got an itch.
I have poison Ivy.
I'm ready.
Don't kiss me.
- She might be looking.
- I know.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my lord.
It's the two most important women in my life meeting each other for the first time.
And it was a lot for me.
That moment was a ton.
And of course, you want them to get along, and you want us to go off skipping into the sunset.
But that's not reality half the time, you know? - Did you have fun? - Yeah, it was fun.
- Kinda? - Yeah.
- Do you like her stand-up? - All right, let's not Go there.
I don't think it was the best setting, necessarily, to introduce her to Stamie.
I think we probably should have done it in private.
It's comedy.
You never know what you're gonna get.
Tonight is opening night at Fashion Week, and we are kicking off with Richie Sambora and Nikki Lund's line White Trash Beautiful.
And we have a big show tomorrow night with group shows where we show multiple designers on the runway.
The first day of the show is always the day that you gotta work out all the kinks.
So I'm super-stressed out.
I wanna make everybody happy.
We have a lot riding on this event.
And this is getting really, really, really stressful.
If there's an empty seat when we start the show, we'll make sure and fill them, okay? Hi.
Jo! How are you? - Okay by yourself up here? - I'm okay right here.
All right.
I'm on it, I'm on it.
It looks like we're about to have a three-ring circus.
It just feels like this is the biggest, best, most amazing production that's ever gonna happen for Fashion Week here this season.
Can really tell the energy's really vibing.
These lights need to be on.
Fuck.
I need to get these lights on.
The lights on the step and repeat are not on.
This is a huge problem.
The whole premise of bringing these celebrities out is to gain ground and traction for building up Fashion Week to be what it is in Los Angeles.
And now it's dark, we have celebrities coming in, and they're not getting shot on the red carpet.
Doesn't the crew need to be here manning it? This is bullshit.
I want the outside lit up.
I want it looking as great as possible, and I want my client to be happy.
We blew a breaker.
I'm right here.
Can we plug it in something else? No.
Just plug 'em in.
I'll find another place.
This is not okay at all.
- Huh? - What can we I gotta get some more, uh, extension cords.
Can you go ask one of my guys to bring me up a couple? We have to pull power from somewhere at this point, which means we have to unplug something somewhere else.
There's power boxes that are upstairs in the hair and makeup rooms, we're gonna have to drop some extension cords down and try to get these lights working.
Where's Ian? God damn it! These fucking lights need to get on! I'm starting to lose my shit.
Baby.
Come on, just 'cause they're not boots? No, baby, come on, some jeans and some boots.
- Come on, baby.
- Tonight's gonna be fun.
We're ordering in, having my sisters come over.
What about PDA? I was planning on scissoring you in front of your mom.
Is that too much? No.
Of course not.
It is hard for me to not show affection to Tracy.
I love hugging her and kissing her, and you haven't seen her naked.
She's fucking hot! It was a lot it was a lot having my mom meet you.
It was a lot.
It was a lot for her.
- I was exhausted.
- And I've never been with anyone whose parents didn't know and I was the first one.
The thing is, my mom likes my gay friends.
She likes my roommate Michelle.
You know what I mean? But it's anybody that's dating her daughter.
- I get it.
- It's not that she doesn't like you.
She doesn't like the idea.
I'm not even going there.
Your mom needs time to I know.
Last night was exhausting, but today I'm gonna treat it as a new day and sort of attack it again, 'cause I'm not gonna give up.
I want my mom to meet your kids.
She's gonna see the kids and do what? I can't tell if she's gonna struggle No, I can't tell if she's gonna struggle with the kids, like seeing all that, or if it's actually gonna sort of soften her up.
- You know what I mean? - Mm-hmm.
I can't tell, and I think it's gonna be they're gonna warm her heart, like she loves kids.
For some reason I think that my mom meeting Stamie's kids will sort of help with everything and help her realize that you can be gay but you can also have a family.
All of those dreams that my mom had about me sort of having the perfect home, kids, the perfect husband can still happen with a woman.
Is that delicious? Do you love it? - It's really good.
- I know.
- It's sweet.
- It's amazing.
- It's sloppy.
- I like my food like I like my women.
Shut the fuck up.
I'm having dinner with Romi, and I figure I'll pretty much be honest about my motives.
We've tried the friends thing.
Um obviously, that doesn't work.
And at the same time, I'm not looking for a relationship.
Sara, she might be moving here kind of she packed to just potentially stay in L.
A.
When she come when they come this week? They don't have a place yet.
So they're just gonna come here in the u-haul and where are they gonna put everything? Now, I don't know.
They didn't even call me today, okay? I told them yesterday I have some places lined up.
People were supposed to call me back, this and that.
They were like, "oh, great, thanks, dude.
" Did not call me all day today to check up on it.
You'd think they'd at least check in.
It's kind of weird that Whitney is being vague about her relationship with Sara And how she feels about her.
Like, we just I just had sex with you.
One big happy family.
- It is one big family.
- It is.
See, we got to the point where We can all be friends with each other, and it's all fine.
Exactly.
The thing is this.
Yeah, I have feelings for Romi.
But I have feelings for Sara too.
And it's like should I end things? I should probably end things with somebody.
But, I mean, it's hard to.
I decided today I'm gonna have a child.
Did you? I love you, 'cause really, why not? Yeah.
I decided like, you know, in the next couple of years, - like three years.
- You're gonna do it? I'm feeling like very maternal.
Are you? That's sweet.
You should do that.
You should definitely have a baby.
Let's make baby-making at Dinah.
I'm gonna find somebody and - Yeah.
- At Dinah.
Me and a lot of other people.
The truth will be revealed at dinah shore.
Into a goddamn wall? I'm starting to lose my shit.
I'll never fucking work with that asshole again.
I'm in full-on meltdown mode at this point.
We've got to get these lights on, because we're missing a lot of celebrities coming in, and this is not cool.
Can you unplug one of those leds and plug in? Ah fishnet.
If we don't get these lights on, it's like literally Fashion Week is over before it even happens.
If I could stand there as a conductor and hold both wires and make the lights work, that's the kind of show producer I am.
That's exactly what I would do.
- All right.
- Yeah.
London, you better guard that with your life.
Finally, after the 20 longest minutes of my whole life, Ian drops extra power.
We get it taken care of, plug the lights in, and boom, they're on.
Thank God.
Everything's fine now, and we're ready to start the show.
The lights are back on.
This is good.
- No, absolutely not.
- Ha ha ha! Could you try to get everybody in to take their seats? We wanna start.
Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Mikey Koffman of The Gallery, Los Angeles.
Welcome to L.
A.
fashion week at Sunset Gower Studios and to the White Trash Beautiful runway show! We'd like to thank all our sponsors tonight.
We have a great show ahead of you.
Thank you guys all for coming out, and enjoy the runway show.
You guys ready? Go! Ava Sambora! Ava seems a little timid when she first comes out, so I have James announce her name over the music so everybody knows it's Ava Sambora on the runway.
The crowd starts clapping.
They're super happy.
She looked so beautiful on that runway.
I can tell you that Ava will definitely be modeling for a long time.
The whole show just went beautifully.
Mikey, the producers, the whole team it was amazing.
You know, what can I say? We did it.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
- Hey, hi! - Hi! Tonight's gonna sort of break the ice.
Kind of like, you know, I think the mood's gonna be a little bit different.
You want some wine, Stamie? - Oh, sure.
- Red? Red? Uh, is there white? For the sake of the situation, I will honor Zori's request of not being affectionate to her daughter.
Thank you.
But I don't understand why me holding your daughter's hand is gonna disgust you.
Like, I don't get it.
Like, if I put my hand down her pants, I get it.
But really Me and mom went to Home Goods today.
Oh, man, they had to tear us out of there.
- Really? - Oh, and this candle.
Oh, and look at this lantern.
Oh, and look at the patio.
Oh, man.
What are you doing tomorrow, anyway? Stamie's getting her kids back tomorrow.
They went skiing.
Did we tell you? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Um, so her kids come back tomorrow.
So but they're not coming early.
What what fun.
No pressure, no pressure.
I know.
I put you on the spot.
- Don't put her on the spot.
- Okay.
Don't put her on the spot.
It was disappointing.
I set myself up and I think I'm gonna get a certain answer, like, "yeah, I want to meet Stamie's kids.
" The kids are a huge part of my life, if not a priority right now.
I mean, besides Stamie.
And I just want her to be a part of all of it.
And, uh, and I know she's gonna get there, but it's just frustrating as hell to wait.
- Mommy.
- Hey! She hasn't seen her yet, right? Baby, that's my earlobe.
Come on, you usually like that.
Is it 'cause my mom's next door? I'm not Irish.
If you're gonna not want to meet my children, you're gonna alienate me even more.
I mean, this brings me back to not being comfortable with my sexuality, and I'm a mother.
I have three children.
I don't need to feel bad about myself.
It feels nice in here.
Isn't it just what your family needed? - Another girl.
- Yeah.
- Let's - Cheers.
- One more time.
- Ahh! Cheers.
Tonight is the second night of Fashion Week.
Let's see in 30 minutes, let's plan to go upstairs and work on the music.
We're talking about 75 to It's a big show, which makes me really excited.
Mikey invited me to Fashion Week tonight.
I am so excited to go.
I really want to see what she's been working on all these months.
- How are you? - Oh! Again.
She got front row seats, man.
Nice.
Good thing.
You must know somebody high up.
I must know I must know the head VIP.
Let's get you shot.
Hi.
Wow, they did such a job with the tent, yeah? Gorgeous? - How are you? - You're on the list, but I Now you are the one I've heard so much about.
- How are you? - I'm so glad to know you.
Nice to meet you.
- We're both super-excited.
- Did you get your wristband? - Dude, how are you? - How are you? - Mwah.
Nice to see you.
- Thanks for the invite.
You know Hi, what's your name? Scarlet? Stamie.
Right, I gotta introduce you to Mikey.
Yeah, she's around here somewhere, running around.
Raquel's not here yet.
I'm kind of trying to hold the show for her.
Uh, she's kind of leaving me no choice.
Hopefully she can make it here in the next 10 to 15 minutes, that would be awesome.
Trying to find alcohol.
We were standing right next to it, but Okay.
I'm going! Thank you! Baby! Oh, my God.
- Okay.
- What do you need? Raquel has been in all my major fashion events, and it's really important for me to have her here.
She's like my good luck charm, and I can't do it without her.
That's fabulous.
Exactly.
Next up.
Tonight's show was amazing.
I truly feel this is the biggest and best thing I've ever done in my whole life.
I'm not really one that would ever say that I'm proud of myself, but I'm actually proud of myself.
Thank you, guys, all for coming out tonight.
Tonight was so amazing that I cannot even stop myself from sharing the biggest moment of my life with you.
Do we have Raquel Casadega in the house? Raquel Casadega? Is there a Raquel Casadega? You need to move your car.
You're blocking valet.
Oh, no way.
Will you marry me? Please say yes.
It'd be really embarrassing if she said no right now.
Yes.
Cool.
Let's fuckin' party! That is so amazing to me.
Mikey doesn't have the easiest time showing how she feels.
So saying something that loud really got my attention.
I just can't believe she made a statement like that.
It's just it's amazing.
- Take care of the people.
- Oh, my God.
I felt like I needed to propose to Raquel 'cause I wanted to speak her language.
I felt like she likes big gestures, and I was trying to give her that.
I'm going to fulfill these dreams of, like, actually getting married and, like, build a family.
You know, buy a house.
The American dream.
The American dream, man.
I'm just trying to live it.
I've had girls cry after sex.
The ones that have, I don't know what to do.
Like, shit.
What? What the fuck kind of question is that? When girls cry during sex awkward.
I don't even know what to do.
Uh, do people cry I should ask you that.
Like, why are they crying? It's supposed to be a happy moment.
I did not cry the first time I had sex with a woman.
Um, I think I had a really big smile on my face.
Yeah, Jill cries.
I have cried during sex.
It's not often, but I have.
What do you do? You like can't get out of the room fast enough.
I think when that little sensitivity chip goes off, it's not unexpected for me to cry.
No, thank God, I do not cry when I come.
Is that why guys keep tissues next to their beds? This whole time I didn't know? I thought it was for something else.
Previously on The Real L Word So L.
A.
Fashion Week is this coming up weekend.
It's like nutso.
My balls are on the line with my designers and my big top attendees.
Pull up every fucking email you sent to Brian! Mikey's getting totally frantic.
Pull them all up and fucking send them back to him! - Wow! Baby, I do.
- Say "I do"? From the moment that I got out of the car with Jill, I knew that this was where we were getting married.
Now I need Jill to be persuaded.
We have too it now or else it's not gonna be there anymore.
Oh, really? If we don't jump on this, it will be gone.
- Now you're being unfair.
- Why? Because you're just coming up with reasons to pressure me.
Hey, mom, how do I convince you to come out for my birthday? I want you to meet Stamie.
Let's play that one by ear.
I have my 30th birthday coming up.
It's a big deal for me, but I'm not really sure as to whether she's gonna come or not.
My mom's gonna love you.
Hopefully, she comes out for my birthday.
We'll see.
It's a lot of pressure, being the first girlfriend her mom meets.
I'm a keeper aren't I? Yeah.
We have something together.
I don't know where it's gonna go.
Hey, you're such a fucking pain in my ass.
- Why? - In my ass.
Come.
Where? There's a party going on that I'm hosting.
I should really be out there.
But you know, I am a pussy slut.
They're in the same fucking room right now? Scarlett, do you not realize that? I think tonight I let a lot of people down.
She felt pain on her side, and then she couldn't walk and she said to call 911 'cause the pain was really bad.
My grandmother was rushed to the hospital.
I can't imagine life without her.
Nat, you're being a bitch.
You're being a heartless fucking I'm a heartless whatever.
Okay.
Heartless.
Rose is kinda bitchy all day, which is understandable.
But I can't read her mind, and I don't know what I need to do for her.
My ex-girlfriend Angel knows my grandma's sick and just sent me a text.
I wanna see Angel, 'cause she kinda makes me feel better sometimes.
I don't care about her ex.
I care about other girls, not her ex.
That's your problem.
That's who she's with.
Her own girlfriend can't fucking find her.
What what's going on? You know, given the fact that Natalie's not being as supportive as I want her to be during this time I mean, she and I have zero connection at this point.
Have fun.
I'm feeling like shit.
You know, I'm really feeling bad about things.
And there's someone I need to see.
Angel and I never really had a chance to have closure in our relationship.
You know, two weeks later, I end up with Natalie, and we never broke up.
I think there's things that we both want to say to one another because our breakup was so bad.
You and I had a very, very chaotic crazy, toxic relationship.
I think a lot of that was because of the fact that, you know, you cheated.
Why did you want me to come meet you here? You know that you and I have already established that we would be there for each other.
We never established this when we broke up.
When we broke up, it was a horrible breakup.
Yeah.
But I mean afterward, we, you know After what? Recently, not afterwards.
- Since my grandma's been sick.
- Since your grandma's Thank you for that.
I always known that you'd call me if anything ever happened to your grandma.
And I always knew you would be there if it did.
Well, your grandma's good now.
- She's safe and sound.
- You're still here.
I'm not still here.
- I'm not still here.
- That's bullshit.
- No, I'm not.
- That's bullshit.
No.
Rose I know you better than anybody does.
You moved on really fast, right? - Yeah, I did.
- Okay.
- Why is that? - I don't know.
I just did.
You don't know? Rebound.
You can't be alone.
Right? You're still the same.
You'll never change.
Come on, let's go.
I'll walk you to your car.
Angel kind of just makes me feel better.
She kind of puts things in perspective, and she's just strong in that way.
And I never thought I would miss anything from her, but, uh, I do miss that.
What do you want, Rose? Like what do you like seriously Come in the car.
Okay, look, here's the thing.
Here's the thing that you have to understand.
I am trying to be as real as I possibly can be across the board.
- About what? - About everything.
- About what? - About you, about everybody.
About what? What are you being real about? I feel like I was doing so well without you in my life.
And the moment you get a sense that I'm fucking actually moving on, you come back.
I didn't even know you were moving on.
I just feel like you always do this.
- It's so typical of you.
- You're one of my best friends, and that and and I sometimes I need you.
What do you want me to do? It's always about you and what you need.
It's never about anything else.
I I'm done.
Go do what you do best.
And make amends with your girlfriend and tell her you needed "closure" to carry on your rapport with her.
I know this line.
Just go.
Okay.
I'd rather just get it out of the way.
Well, I don't wanna do it now, and I'll help you do it later.
'Cause you're not gonna be able to do it by yourself.
I'm just saying you're gonna end up spilling lube-covered corn all over the yard.
The only person that takes care of Whitney besides her sister and her mom is me.
Why don't you just get a snack, take a little rest and forget about that for a little while? And I hold Whitney to a little bit of higher expectations when it comes to meddling in love relations with people that I'm related to.
- I meant to, um - No.
None? I don't know about that.
After the White Trash Party, Whitney tells me that Romi raped her.
Come on.
Who do you think I am? Do you think I'm that dumb? It's consensual, obviously, because you did it.
I love Whitney so much that even when she does something that I think is ridiculous or that pisses me off, three's also an equal part of me that wants to console her.
But she hurt Tor again.
Uh, that's a no.
Let's call Camilla.
Let's get all the big things out of the way.
Today is the day that I am changing this whole wedding venue situation.
- Why are we calling Camilla? - Because she sent us an email.
Oh, we have to look at the new location she sent.
I definitely am worried that the house is gonna go bye-bye if we don't make a decision.
I mean, I love that house.
We tend to have disagreements like this because I am so decisive and she does need a minute.
And wish that our wedding planner would have like saved that one for the end, because, you know, if she knows my wife-to-be, we need to exhaust everything prior.
Could you pull up Camilla's two other places, please? By the way, I'm not gonna say a thing.
I mean, we could have a cocktailer up there.
Wait, stop.
Baby, that looks haunted! This house is crazy.
But it looks like it smells a little bit, right? I love how you were going to sit quietly in the corner.
- Sorry.
- What's the next option? Let's see if you can keep your lips pursed.
Do you wanna get married there? We might as well get married at this house.
Can I call Camilla? It's so hard to get angry with you.
You know, I know Nik's still set on the original house.
But the house is a bigger slice of the pie than I had anticipated.
So that's really my biggest concern.
Can you be serious for a minute? Could you can you? I'm worried about other areas falling short - because this is such a - I promise you Without adding without adding to I promise it won't add.
The budget will be the budget.
I promise you.
These are large checks to write for one day.
- It's hard.
- But it's a wedding.
I know.
It's just still hard to swallow.
But in the scheme of things, it has to feel magical, and I feel like when we got to that location, you and I both were like Right? Yes.
Okay.
- Okay? - Yeah.
- Really? - It's gorgeous.
Nik wore me down.
She's a very smart woman.
I think she's a very savvy businesswoman, so I trust her judgment.
And I was starting to just get exhausted.
- It's gorgeous.
- It is.
It's that's the problem.
Nothing's as beautiful.
Element Weddings.
This is Camilla.
Hi, Camilla.
It's Jill and Nikki.
Thank you for sending the other options.
We looked through them.
Nothing compares.
It's just so gorgeous and it's gonna make my bride very happy.
- Hey, congratulations.
- Yay! - One piece of the puzzle down.
- Big, huge phone hug.
Yeah, big phone hug back.
- Thank you.
- All right, my dears.
Talk to you soon.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye.
We have a place.
- Are you happy? - Yes.
- Are you sure? - Yes.
I'm gonna marry you at that place.
'Cause when we got out of the car, I knew it.
You knew it, huh? Nuts! It's amazing what people can do in six to eight hours.
We only have two days until Fashion Week, and this is gonna be a huge night.
I'm really hoping it all goes off without a hitch.
All right! It's the last leg! It's so exciting.
The tent is up.
The roof is up.
We're getting the sidewalls on, the flooring's being laid over there.
It's a complete bustle of activity here at L.
A.
Fashion Weekend.
This is 100% my biggest production ever to stand under a 10,000-square-foot tent with a 20-foot rise in the center of the ceiling is fucking insane.
I'm so excited.
All right, guys.
Amazing job.
Thank you so much for everything.
I appreciate all your help.
You wanna say hi to my mom? No.
In my heart, I say hi to her every day.
I say thank you.
I thank her uterus every day.
I've had a few phone calls with my mom recently about me being gay, and I feel that, you know, we've started to make some sort of, you know, progress.
But I'm not really sure as to whether she's gonna come to my birthday.
Do you know it took my dad ten years to come out here - to visit me? - Why so long? I don't think he wanted to know too many details.
- And the first time - Like don't ask, don't tell? Yeah.
And then the first time they came out here, they stayed with Julie and I, which I was like, "oh, my God.
My parents are in the other room.
" Was it awkward at all? Like did you guys - just fit into the groove? - No, my parents were awesome.
It made me so happy.
It was awesome, though.
- It was? - To finally have my parents and my girlfriend in the same house? I can't wait for that.
I want that with my parents.
I think it almost happens in every coming out story Kids struggle with telling their parents or friends and for me, at least, my mom is the world to me.
You know, it was a little disappointing to hear her reaction at first, but it was important to me to get through that and talk through it, because, you know, parents have a coming out process as well.
Natalie hasn't come home.
She's staying at her mom's house.
Now I have to make up with her, you know.
And I'll probably have to do some major Oscar award-winning acting.
Hey, come here.
You okay? Yeah.
- You don't wanna hug me? - I'm hugging you.
I am hugging you.
How's your grandma? Um, she looks good.
She's good.
What? You and I.
The things you said, like, you're gonna go be with Angel.
Really? - I didn't even say that.
- That's what you said you said.
Yeah, but that wasn't what was meant.
But either way, it's so easy for you to drop everything when you're mad.
I didn't drop everything.
I went to go be with myself and like take care of me for a second, you know what I mean, which I never do.
You can't do that.
- Can't do what? - You can't just leave.
I always tell Rose when things like this happen, you know, how would you react or feel if I did this to you? She understands at that point.
Like, you're right, I would probably dump your ass or be gone.
Why would you do that to me? Just giving you a love tap.
Even if we're fighting and even if you need to be alone just talk to me.
'Cause then my mind goes crazy, and I don't know where the fuck you're at.
And I can only assume.
You okay? Why don't you just come home? Okay.
Hey, guess what.
Me and you need to fucking haul those lube bags tonight.
Right.
We have to like make a secret mission to that dumpster together.
Where's the shopping cart? We should put them in the shopping cart.
- Oh, shit! - Yeah, uh-huh.
- Oh, man.
- Whitney, I'm gonna There's a ho there's a big hole.
Yeah.
What do you want me to do? - Oh, damn it.
- And hurry.
Pew! I'm gonna barf.
Oh, my God, it smells so bad! Alyssa, grab the side of the bag.
Ugh! Oh, yeah, that's good.
That's good.
Ooh Holy hell, that's heavy! Let's wheel this lube down the street! Time for lube wheelin'! We're just two young ladies Lubes ahoy! We don't need that cart.
- Fuck the cart.
- No, no, leave the cart.
- Leave it.
- Fuck the cart.
- We'll get another cart.
- We're outta here.
When you guys are trying stuff on, could you just slip a pair of heels on? 'Cause it totally changes the shape of your body.
Hey! - How are you doing? - This is Ava.
Hello, young lady.
I've been looking forward to meeting you.
Hello, Miss Locklear.
How are you? Nice to meet you.
Heather Locklear's daughter Ava Sambora is gonna be walking in Richie Sambora's fashion show for White Trash Beautiful, and I'm super-excited about it.
- Mrs.
Locklear.
- Call me Heather.
Is that okay if I call you Heather? Uh Miss Heather.
No.
My heart's been pounding all day.
- Oh, you're so sweet.
- You have no idea.
I had the biggest crush on you when I was a kid.
T.
J.
Hooker Oh, ho! Yeah! So Ava's never done runway before.
So we teamed her up with one of the models.
Hannah from Photogenics was helping her on her runway walks.
The whole trick is about leaning back.
It's kind of weird, and it feels like you're kind of walking on your heels more than on your toes? What a beautiful daughter you have amazing.
I couldn't be more excited about this show.
You have no idea.
Well Baby! - Hi, babe! - What This is for you! - Oh ho! - I love you! Surprise.
Hi, babe.
How are you? - Good.
How are you? - Good.
Oh, baby, thank you very much.
Sorry.
This is Heather.
Heather, this is Raquel.
- Nice to meet you.
- I know Raquel she really wanted to meet Heather today.
The roses and the balloons it's all just a farce.
All right, guys, come on.
Let's practice Ava's walk.
Let's give her one more shot down the runway here.
Bring it, girl! Yeah Oh! Oh, my God! Gave me the look.
Did you see? We tell her, you know, she's a rock star's daughter.
She's gonna bring it on that runway.
- I'm super-excited about it.
- You've been amazing.
I'm so excited to see you.
- Bye, guys.
- Okay.
Thank you.
So nice.
And then, uh there's an L.
A.
migration from San Francisco happening, and let me tell you I think you triggered it.
- You expedited the process.
- Yeah, expedited it.
'Cause I talked to Sara today, and she you know she moved out.
She's staying around so she's in a rush to get outta there, hopefully.
Tor and Romi are way overly dramatic, and I realize that with Sara, I get this drama-free hookup, and at this point, that's what I want.
Like that's what I like about Sara is like she gets me more.
She's not so "who are you with, what are you doing are you hooking up?" Is she coming to dinah shore with us? Yes! Ha! It's gonna be fucking amazing.
Dinah shore is in about two weeks and is basically just a gathering of the lesbians.
It's technically like a girls gone wild golf weekend, but does any golfing go on during this time? I don't think so.
I'm gonna have to tell - Romi.
- Romi.
Because honestly, if Sara comes down, I wanna be with Sara.
I just genuinely like her.
- I know you do.
- Like a lot.
And it's weird.
And I kind of hate it.
I'm not gonna lie.
I would fucking hate it.
You're losing control.
Ah! It's a beautiful thing for me to watch.
Ha! I'm worried about Romi.
- You are? - Yeah.
You can't you can't entertain that idea anymore? - I know.
- I think with Romi you need to be the smart one.
If she doesn't think with her head, she thinks with her heart.
You have to be more conscious about her feelings, you know? - She's my friend, like it hurt - Yeah, I know! I think Sara moving here is gonna make Whitney have to make a decision.
Because neither Romi nor Victoria have the the kind of dominant character that Sara has, and I don't think she's as tolerant for bullshit.
Stop entertaining the idea.
You already know it's up in your head.
Condition with Romi accordingly.
Respectfully end it as lovers, and try to be her friend.
Zip it up.
Or I'll be pissed.
I'm being honest.
Then act like it.
I am! With Romi.
Hey, mommy.
How are you? I'm okay.
Okay.
What's up, yo? Yeah, remember I told you I might come see you for your birthday? I don't think I can come.
- Oh, really? - Yeah.
Are you sure you can't come? My mom's just not ready to meet Stamie.
But it sucks.
All I want to do is scream at the top of my lungs and show her this amazing girl who has these amazing children.
But she just she's not there yet.
Hold on a sec.
That's all right.
I guess I'll still be 30 then.
Oh Aah! - Got you! - Mom! - Got you! - What are you doing? Got you! Oh.
You smuggled this on the plane? Yeah.
You're not gonna invite me in? I'm freezing.
- Come on.
- It's so cold in here.
- What are you doing here? - Surprising you! My mom completely caught me by surprise.
I had no idea.
Oh, my heart's going like a mile a minute right now.
She came out here unannounced, knowing that she's gonna have to deal with the gay issue, meet Stamie.
I think that's a huge step for her.
I give her a lot of credit.
I'm sorry.
I didn't know you were coming.
I would have kind of cleaned up a little.
So tell me, what are you doing now, job? Work's good.
I've never been busier.
It's weird.
People have been approaching me to model again.
I always want you to model, remember? I know.
And I just did a photo shoot for this magazine called BOUND Magazine.
- Wow.
- It's a new magazine, and it's very like a, you know, upscale sort of sort of a women's magazine, but I think it's geared towards lesbians, so Wow.
I'm not trying to change your mind or change your way of life or change anything.
No, you're not.
But I'm trying to have you understand sort of my thinking and my actions and more of I know you know who I am very well, but more of who I am, and every part of it.
You know what I mean? So I I wanna include you in that.
Mm Well, you have to realize that sometimes when you talk to me, I was avoiding this conversation, because remember when you told me you told me once, and I put it like on the side because Yeah, no shit.
That was a while ago.
A while ago.
- I know.
- As a mother If you would be in my shoe, you would think the same way.
- Um I don't know.
- You never been a mother.
Yeah, I don't I don't think I would have, though.
I think all the mothers out there would think the same way.
Think that I don't necessarily need for you to accept all of it right now.
All I need is to know that you're open wait.
All I need to know is that yore open and that you're able to listen to me and that you want to be part of that part of my life as well.
I'm going like step by step like I told you.
You know what I mean? Slowly.
- Baby steps.
- I know.
It's hard for me because you create this thing, you know, this image about your daughter.
And you want your children to meet somebody nice, get married, have children and all that.
What changed for you? Because I see a big change in you.
We not only mother and daughter, but we are best friends.
- We are best friends.
- I know.
You have me speechless for the first time ever.
I been waiting a few years for this, and I think that's probably one of the sweetest moments that we've had in a very long time.
It's like that breaks my heart, so Um Stamie, who I'm dating, has a comedy show.
Are you okay coming? It's not a huge deal to you? It's for you.
Stamie is a close person to Tracy.
I supposed to meet her tonight.
Like I told you, step by step.
Um I respect you.
You respect me.
But we do need a little respect.
Like I don't wanna see her holding hands, kissing.
She have to give me my space, respect me as a mom.
I'm taking it slowly, you know what I mean? Like I told you, it's hard.
But I think I'm moving forward.
I know.
It's scary.
For Valentine's day, Nicole bought us dance lessons so we can learn how to dance for the wedding.
- Thank you.
- Thank you.
It's an adorable gift.
It's thoughtful and very creative.
But now that the two of us are actually going to it, I think we're both like oh, shit.
We have a report card.
Hi! - Ladies.
Excited? - Mm-mm.
- No? Why? - Okay, yeah.
Yeah? It's gonna be fun.
We're not having a traditional wedding.
But still, we need to look like we know what we're talking about when we're dancing at our wedding.
So we have these private dance lessons at the studio where my mom takes her lessons.
What I'm gonna do today, I'm gonna assess you to see where you're at.
Oh, I'm at the bottom of the barrel.
That's okay.
No.
That's okay.
And who's the leader and who's the follower? - She's the leader.
- Ha ha ha! - You're the leader? - You have to ask that question? Jill should be the leader.
I lead in everything.
I don't wanna lead on the dance floor.
You don't want me to lead.
It's like the blind leading the blind.
Are we ready? Okay.
So we're gonna start with a box.
Step, one, step to the side.
Side.
Close your feet.
There ya go.
That's it.
Here we go again.
And forward left, one two, three.
Back with your right.
One, two, three.
It's ridiculous the two of us are such beginners.
I mean, we have to learn how to do a box step.
How was I absent that day when they taught that in gym class, you know? So what we have to do now, we have to dance that together.
- With - Okay.
With one another.
For some reason to women dance slow dancing together feels a little strange to me.
I can't put my finger on it.
Just hold her hand.
This goes on her back.
On her back, on her back, on her back, on her back like this.
Close your fingers.
By far the most humbling of humbling experiences I've ever had.
Did not get the dance gene.
- One to the side.
- No, you did not get it.
You did not get it either.
You did not get it either.
Listen, twinkle toes - One, two - Now I wanna step 'Cause I don't wanna learn anymore.
- Three.
- Wait Let me turn it up a little bit, just 'cause you And then we're gonna be those two women dancing.
It's so gay! It's there's a couple of things at play here.
It's just gay.
I I'm sorry.
Why would you subject us He's wonderful, but this We never had one lesson, so we'll have one lesson.
Dance lessons were the worst idea I've ever had.
I'm so sorry.
Did I apologize? - Not enough.
- So terribly sorry.
We'll play hip-hop music when we come out.
There'll be much less pressure.
Feels slightly awkward.
I just wanna put that out there.
Oh, my God! The steps.
Oh, my God.
We're going to Stamie's comedy show tonight.
- Tracy.
- What? It's about you change this car.
Come on.
My grandmother taught me that life's not the same without humor.
And I actually see a lot of my grandmother in Stamie.
And I think that's something that attracts me to her.
So I'm hoping that my mom sees that also.
The funny thing is, it's like she spends like four hours before her show just sort of getting in that mode.
And she's probably gonna get thrown off by seeing you.
But she doesn't know who I am, so - No.
- She might not think I'm there.
- Well - If you come in, and I just sit She's gonna be like, "who is this other woman?" This is the first time my mom's met anybody that I've, you know, dated.
I am really excited but also really nervous and I sort of I'm in this position now where I wanna protect Stamie too.
She has no clue what she's in for.
I'm a little worried.
It's like Clash of the Titans.
I don't know what's gonna happen.
I gotta call Stamie.
Hi.
Hello! What are you doing, getting ready? Where are you, babe? I'm on my way to you right now.
I have a little surprise.
- You got me another cupcake? - No, it's not a cupcake.
It's a little bigger than a cupcake.
Somebody was delivered to my doorstep.
My mom's here! What? I'm telling her.
I don't care.
My mom's here, and she's coming to your comedy show.
Talk.
Talk.
Come on, ma.
She's gonna think I'm crazy.
My mom's coming.
I'm not kidding around.
You're the jokester, not me.
She doesn't believe me.
You know, this morning my grandmother, I got the news that she's getting out of the hospital.
So I'm looking forward to going over to her house and seeing that she's settled in and she's okay.
The only time I go to my grandmother's is when my mom's not there.
Because our tension is just so it's really bad.
But with what has happened I think right now I should put, you know, our drama aside and just be there for my grandmother and my family.
- Hi, mom, how are you? - Hi.
My mother and I, you know, we just had a really big falling out.
My mom is real overbearing, and we haven't spoken to each other in nine months.
It's been a while.
I'm sure my grandmother's constantly reminded of the drama.
- I'm so glad that mom's home.
- I know, me too.
I haven't seen you, tia.
Okay.
- How you doing? - I'm happy.
- I'm very happy.
- Me too.
She looks good.
Later on I want you to say you're sorry to your mom.
- I will.
- You know - just to make things okay.
- I will.
Tell her, "mom, you know what, I'm sorry.
" - Okay.
- You need to apologize.
You know? Bury the hatchet.
Life goes on.
She knows I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
You know what, Rose? I'm gonna tell you something.
- I don't wanna talk about it.
- Listen to your mother.
All right? I love you with all my heart.
And you know that.
I've always been there for you no matter what.
You know I've always been there for you no matter what.
Okay? My forgiveness to you is to let go of the hurt - that you caused me, okay? - Okay, let's let it go.
Because my love for you is unconditional.
Ma, she told me she's sorry.
- Okay? - Okay.
- I'm willing to forgive her.
- Okay.
Let's let it go.
- All right.
- Okay.
I love my daughter unconditionally.
She's my baby.
I accept her lifestyle.
And I was really looking forward for her to accepting that she was disrespectful and me waiting for her to one day come and say she was sorry.
You know, I held on to that for many, many months.
And she did, and that was really rewarding.
Okay? I think if it wasn't for, you know, my grandmother having gotten sick, I probably wouldn't have found myself in an emotional place to be as accepting or forgiving or wanting to move on.
But, um, you know, things happen for a reason.
That's what life's about, so it worked out for, I guess, everybody.
- Hi! - Hi! Hi, how are you? - Hi.
- This is mom.
Hi.
I'm Stamie.
- Nice to meet you.
- Very nice meeting you too.
- Welcome.
- You didn't believe me.
- No.
- Really? No.
This is a surprise, boy.
All right.
I'm gonna go start the show now.
You're all set over there.
- You good? - I'm good.
That was painless, right? I only met her for five seconds, but I really think I have an uphill battle.
Nothing against her.
I mean, it's just an uncomfortable situation.
I'm Tracy's first girlfriend that she's met, so Whoo-hoo! Lucky me! Stamie Karakasidis, everybody! Hi, everybody.
How are you tonight? Thanks for, um, hanging out.
I recently broke up.
People are like, "how are you nice to your ex?" I'm like, "she's the mother of my kids.
"I have to be nice to her.
" But I don't have to like who she's with, right? You gotta act how you want your children to act.
So every time we see her, we're always like she's French so we're always like, "bonjour, cunt face.
" So, you know, when you date someone, you try to do fun things.
We went and saw puppetry of the penis anyone? People are like, "what are you going to see puppetry of the penis for?" And I'm like "Just 'cause I don't want it in my mouth doesn't mean I don't wanna see it in the shape of a hamburger.
" I didn't prep my mom at all as to what.
Stamie's comedy's like.
It's very raw.
You know, it was kind of fascinating.
Because I have two sons, and the size I'm comfortable with is like this big, you know? Thank you, guys.
Good night.
This is a big step for me.
I don't want things to just one, two, three, you know, and expect me to just accept everything in one shot.
Stamie Karakasidis, everybody.
Stamie, um she's Tracy's, um um best friend.
I can't do this thing.
- You're nervous.
- I'm so not nervous.
Really.
Stop scratching your neck.
I got an itch.
I have poison Ivy.
I'm ready.
Don't kiss me.
- She might be looking.
- I know.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my lord.
It's the two most important women in my life meeting each other for the first time.
And it was a lot for me.
That moment was a ton.
And of course, you want them to get along, and you want us to go off skipping into the sunset.
But that's not reality half the time, you know? - Did you have fun? - Yeah, it was fun.
- Kinda? - Yeah.
- Do you like her stand-up? - All right, let's not Go there.
I don't think it was the best setting, necessarily, to introduce her to Stamie.
I think we probably should have done it in private.
It's comedy.
You never know what you're gonna get.
Tonight is opening night at Fashion Week, and we are kicking off with Richie Sambora and Nikki Lund's line White Trash Beautiful.
And we have a big show tomorrow night with group shows where we show multiple designers on the runway.
The first day of the show is always the day that you gotta work out all the kinks.
So I'm super-stressed out.
I wanna make everybody happy.
We have a lot riding on this event.
And this is getting really, really, really stressful.
If there's an empty seat when we start the show, we'll make sure and fill them, okay? Hi.
Jo! How are you? - Okay by yourself up here? - I'm okay right here.
All right.
I'm on it, I'm on it.
It looks like we're about to have a three-ring circus.
It just feels like this is the biggest, best, most amazing production that's ever gonna happen for Fashion Week here this season.
Can really tell the energy's really vibing.
These lights need to be on.
Fuck.
I need to get these lights on.
The lights on the step and repeat are not on.
This is a huge problem.
The whole premise of bringing these celebrities out is to gain ground and traction for building up Fashion Week to be what it is in Los Angeles.
And now it's dark, we have celebrities coming in, and they're not getting shot on the red carpet.
Doesn't the crew need to be here manning it? This is bullshit.
I want the outside lit up.
I want it looking as great as possible, and I want my client to be happy.
We blew a breaker.
I'm right here.
Can we plug it in something else? No.
Just plug 'em in.
I'll find another place.
This is not okay at all.
- Huh? - What can we I gotta get some more, uh, extension cords.
Can you go ask one of my guys to bring me up a couple? We have to pull power from somewhere at this point, which means we have to unplug something somewhere else.
There's power boxes that are upstairs in the hair and makeup rooms, we're gonna have to drop some extension cords down and try to get these lights working.
Where's Ian? God damn it! These fucking lights need to get on! I'm starting to lose my shit.
Baby.
Come on, just 'cause they're not boots? No, baby, come on, some jeans and some boots.
- Come on, baby.
- Tonight's gonna be fun.
We're ordering in, having my sisters come over.
What about PDA? I was planning on scissoring you in front of your mom.
Is that too much? No.
Of course not.
It is hard for me to not show affection to Tracy.
I love hugging her and kissing her, and you haven't seen her naked.
She's fucking hot! It was a lot it was a lot having my mom meet you.
It was a lot.
It was a lot for her.
- I was exhausted.
- And I've never been with anyone whose parents didn't know and I was the first one.
The thing is, my mom likes my gay friends.
She likes my roommate Michelle.
You know what I mean? But it's anybody that's dating her daughter.
- I get it.
- It's not that she doesn't like you.
She doesn't like the idea.
I'm not even going there.
Your mom needs time to I know.
Last night was exhausting, but today I'm gonna treat it as a new day and sort of attack it again, 'cause I'm not gonna give up.
I want my mom to meet your kids.
She's gonna see the kids and do what? I can't tell if she's gonna struggle No, I can't tell if she's gonna struggle with the kids, like seeing all that, or if it's actually gonna sort of soften her up.
- You know what I mean? - Mm-hmm.
I can't tell, and I think it's gonna be they're gonna warm her heart, like she loves kids.
For some reason I think that my mom meeting Stamie's kids will sort of help with everything and help her realize that you can be gay but you can also have a family.
All of those dreams that my mom had about me sort of having the perfect home, kids, the perfect husband can still happen with a woman.
Is that delicious? Do you love it? - It's really good.
- I know.
- It's sweet.
- It's amazing.
- It's sloppy.
- I like my food like I like my women.
Shut the fuck up.
I'm having dinner with Romi, and I figure I'll pretty much be honest about my motives.
We've tried the friends thing.
Um obviously, that doesn't work.
And at the same time, I'm not looking for a relationship.
Sara, she might be moving here kind of she packed to just potentially stay in L.
A.
When she come when they come this week? They don't have a place yet.
So they're just gonna come here in the u-haul and where are they gonna put everything? Now, I don't know.
They didn't even call me today, okay? I told them yesterday I have some places lined up.
People were supposed to call me back, this and that.
They were like, "oh, great, thanks, dude.
" Did not call me all day today to check up on it.
You'd think they'd at least check in.
It's kind of weird that Whitney is being vague about her relationship with Sara And how she feels about her.
Like, we just I just had sex with you.
One big happy family.
- It is one big family.
- It is.
See, we got to the point where We can all be friends with each other, and it's all fine.
Exactly.
The thing is this.
Yeah, I have feelings for Romi.
But I have feelings for Sara too.
And it's like should I end things? I should probably end things with somebody.
But, I mean, it's hard to.
I decided today I'm gonna have a child.
Did you? I love you, 'cause really, why not? Yeah.
I decided like, you know, in the next couple of years, - like three years.
- You're gonna do it? I'm feeling like very maternal.
Are you? That's sweet.
You should do that.
You should definitely have a baby.
Let's make baby-making at Dinah.
I'm gonna find somebody and - Yeah.
- At Dinah.
Me and a lot of other people.
The truth will be revealed at dinah shore.
Into a goddamn wall? I'm starting to lose my shit.
I'll never fucking work with that asshole again.
I'm in full-on meltdown mode at this point.
We've got to get these lights on, because we're missing a lot of celebrities coming in, and this is not cool.
Can you unplug one of those leds and plug in? Ah fishnet.
If we don't get these lights on, it's like literally Fashion Week is over before it even happens.
If I could stand there as a conductor and hold both wires and make the lights work, that's the kind of show producer I am.
That's exactly what I would do.
- All right.
- Yeah.
London, you better guard that with your life.
Finally, after the 20 longest minutes of my whole life, Ian drops extra power.
We get it taken care of, plug the lights in, and boom, they're on.
Thank God.
Everything's fine now, and we're ready to start the show.
The lights are back on.
This is good.
- No, absolutely not.
- Ha ha ha! Could you try to get everybody in to take their seats? We wanna start.
Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Mikey Koffman of The Gallery, Los Angeles.
Welcome to L.
A.
fashion week at Sunset Gower Studios and to the White Trash Beautiful runway show! We'd like to thank all our sponsors tonight.
We have a great show ahead of you.
Thank you guys all for coming out, and enjoy the runway show.
You guys ready? Go! Ava Sambora! Ava seems a little timid when she first comes out, so I have James announce her name over the music so everybody knows it's Ava Sambora on the runway.
The crowd starts clapping.
They're super happy.
She looked so beautiful on that runway.
I can tell you that Ava will definitely be modeling for a long time.
The whole show just went beautifully.
Mikey, the producers, the whole team it was amazing.
You know, what can I say? We did it.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
- Hey, hi! - Hi! Tonight's gonna sort of break the ice.
Kind of like, you know, I think the mood's gonna be a little bit different.
You want some wine, Stamie? - Oh, sure.
- Red? Red? Uh, is there white? For the sake of the situation, I will honor Zori's request of not being affectionate to her daughter.
Thank you.
But I don't understand why me holding your daughter's hand is gonna disgust you.
Like, I don't get it.
Like, if I put my hand down her pants, I get it.
But really Me and mom went to Home Goods today.
Oh, man, they had to tear us out of there.
- Really? - Oh, and this candle.
Oh, and look at this lantern.
Oh, and look at the patio.
Oh, man.
What are you doing tomorrow, anyway? Stamie's getting her kids back tomorrow.
They went skiing.
Did we tell you? - Yeah.
- Yeah.
Um, so her kids come back tomorrow.
So but they're not coming early.
What what fun.
No pressure, no pressure.
I know.
I put you on the spot.
- Don't put her on the spot.
- Okay.
Don't put her on the spot.
It was disappointing.
I set myself up and I think I'm gonna get a certain answer, like, "yeah, I want to meet Stamie's kids.
" The kids are a huge part of my life, if not a priority right now.
I mean, besides Stamie.
And I just want her to be a part of all of it.
And, uh, and I know she's gonna get there, but it's just frustrating as hell to wait.
- Mommy.
- Hey! She hasn't seen her yet, right? Baby, that's my earlobe.
Come on, you usually like that.
Is it 'cause my mom's next door? I'm not Irish.
If you're gonna not want to meet my children, you're gonna alienate me even more.
I mean, this brings me back to not being comfortable with my sexuality, and I'm a mother.
I have three children.
I don't need to feel bad about myself.
It feels nice in here.
Isn't it just what your family needed? - Another girl.
- Yeah.
- Let's - Cheers.
- One more time.
- Ahh! Cheers.
Tonight is the second night of Fashion Week.
Let's see in 30 minutes, let's plan to go upstairs and work on the music.
We're talking about 75 to It's a big show, which makes me really excited.
Mikey invited me to Fashion Week tonight.
I am so excited to go.
I really want to see what she's been working on all these months.
- How are you? - Oh! Again.
She got front row seats, man.
Nice.
Good thing.
You must know somebody high up.
I must know I must know the head VIP.
Let's get you shot.
Hi.
Wow, they did such a job with the tent, yeah? Gorgeous? - How are you? - You're on the list, but I Now you are the one I've heard so much about.
- How are you? - I'm so glad to know you.
Nice to meet you.
- We're both super-excited.
- Did you get your wristband? - Dude, how are you? - How are you? - Mwah.
Nice to see you.
- Thanks for the invite.
You know Hi, what's your name? Scarlet? Stamie.
Right, I gotta introduce you to Mikey.
Yeah, she's around here somewhere, running around.
Raquel's not here yet.
I'm kind of trying to hold the show for her.
Uh, she's kind of leaving me no choice.
Hopefully she can make it here in the next 10 to 15 minutes, that would be awesome.
Trying to find alcohol.
We were standing right next to it, but Okay.
I'm going! Thank you! Baby! Oh, my God.
- Okay.
- What do you need? Raquel has been in all my major fashion events, and it's really important for me to have her here.
She's like my good luck charm, and I can't do it without her.
That's fabulous.
Exactly.
Next up.
Tonight's show was amazing.
I truly feel this is the biggest and best thing I've ever done in my whole life.
I'm not really one that would ever say that I'm proud of myself, but I'm actually proud of myself.
Thank you, guys, all for coming out tonight.
Tonight was so amazing that I cannot even stop myself from sharing the biggest moment of my life with you.
Do we have Raquel Casadega in the house? Raquel Casadega? Is there a Raquel Casadega? You need to move your car.
You're blocking valet.
Oh, no way.
Will you marry me? Please say yes.
It'd be really embarrassing if she said no right now.
Yes.
Cool.
Let's fuckin' party! That is so amazing to me.
Mikey doesn't have the easiest time showing how she feels.
So saying something that loud really got my attention.
I just can't believe she made a statement like that.
It's just it's amazing.
- Take care of the people.
- Oh, my God.
I felt like I needed to propose to Raquel 'cause I wanted to speak her language.
I felt like she likes big gestures, and I was trying to give her that.
I'm going to fulfill these dreams of, like, actually getting married and, like, build a family.
You know, buy a house.
The American dream.
The American dream, man.
I'm just trying to live it.
