[Eleonora] Abi, this is your hood, and this, I feel, is your demographic.

[Abi] I have friends who live here.
-Oh, really? -Yeah.
Let me go and see if I can find Chris.
He's the Chief of Operations.
I think he's here somewhere.
-We're gonna play pool in the meantime. -[laughter]
[upbeat music playing]
[Eleonora] The American Copper building is New York's preeminent rental building.
It is owned by a very well-known real estate entrepreneur
named Meyer Orbach, and he doesn't just own the Copper,
but he owns buildings that have apartments for sale
and a series of townhouses that have never hit the market
on the Upper East Side.
Those are things that the team can really take over.
I'm not looking to run a rental business,
but this relationship is very important to me.
-Hi, ladies. -[women] Hello!
What's up, guys.
Testing out the amenities!
-Perfect. -Okay, guys.
-Back to work. -[Eleonora] I found him.
By the way, there are so many amenity floors.
Alright, so Chris runs, sort of, the show, right?
Right, so yeah, I mean, we bought the building in 2022.
[Eleonora] Famously, for 850 million dollars.
[Abi] Okay.
♪ Oh, that's tasty ♪
[Eleonora] There are 961 units in the building,
ranging from studios to three bedrooms to penthouses.
And they range in price from $3,500 a month
to $18,000 a month.
[Chris] 9,300 square feet of retail, 10,000 square feet of amenity space.
♪ Oh, that's tasty ♪
[Gisselle] Where can we find the pool?
-[laughter] -The pool? There's two.
♪ La la la la ♪
-[Chris] One's upstairs. The other -[Eleonora] One here, a 75-foot lap pool.
-[Chris] Yeah. -[Eleonora] Right? So it's amazing.
I want you to show off your skills, and I hope that we can do right by Chris
and Meyer and the team
and show them that, like, given an opportunity, we seize it.
Get some rentals in, and then maybe there'll be more for us. Okay?
This is just the beginning. They have a massive portfolio.
So, really important.
For today, I just want you guys to explore.
-Okay. -The place is yours.
[Taylor] We'll test the amenities and make sure…
[Jordyn] Free rein?
-Free rein. -I love this.

-We sure will. -Bye.

-[Steve] Hello. Good to see you again. -[Jade] Hi.
-How you doing? -I'm good. How are you?
-I'm good. -Good.
You wore the appropriate shoe attire today.
-Good work. -I did. I came prepared.
I represent the most exquisite buildings
in the new development Douglas Elliman portfolio,
and Steve also represents some of the most exquisite buildings
within the Corcoran portfolio.
We always like to check out each other's inventory.
-Look at this. Like, is this completely… -Oh my gosh, you have the double arches!
[high-energy music playing]
[Steve] 19-foot ceilings in here. Ample room for entertaining.
You got west sunsets in your bedroom. You got sunrises in your living room
in the east and north.
The building has all the amenities you'd come to expect.
The pool is absolutely insane. It's like this Zen-like spa.
-Basketball court, gym… -[Jade] Is there a theater?
-[Steve] There is an IMAX theater. -Stop it. I'm pretty obsessed.
You think your buyer will go for it?
Yeah, I think they're gonna love it.
[Steve] This property is a phenomenal new build, and I mean, my name has value.
Excuse me. "I'm Steve Gold, my name has value."
-It does! I mean… [laughs] -I know, but… [laughs]

Okay.
-[laughing] -We did it!
[Steve] We had that beautiful lunch, thanks for including me and Luiza.
But also, there was clear tension between you and Eleonora.
I mean, I picked up on it. Luiza picked up on it.
On the way home, she was like, "What's going on with those two?"
I was like, "You know me, like, I don't know, I don't care."
But I'm kind of curious, now that we're here.
Yeah, you know that was,
it's actually unfortunate that you picked up on that, also.
Like, Eleonora wants to be supportive, we're friends,
but if you're gonna show up, then show up and be real.
Or don't show up.
I'd rather you not be there if you're gonna act a certain way.
-Oh, shit. -[Abi] Okay.
-Oh-ho-ho-ho! -Wow!
-Did that just go in? -What?
Shut up! That's amazing.
Should we up the ante, guys? A little bet?
What's the bet gonna be?
Somebody buys…
Losers buy the winners lunch at 55th Street.
[Gisselle] No, at 53rd!
[laughs]
How was that lunch?
-[Abi] We want the tea. -I know.
The lunch we're not professional enough to be at.
Fill us in since we weren't invited.
First of all, the building is fabulous.
The amenities were great. Lunch was fabulous.
I was bummed that you guys weren't there.
It just felt a little weird that we didn't get the invite.
We were on the list, then we were taken off the list.
So I think that's where it got a little weird for us.
[Taylor] Oh, shit.
It's personal. If it was business,
you would want all the brokers, as many as possible,
to see this building and amenities.
Like, you want to sell the units, right?
[Taylor] Maybe she wanted it a little bit more…
-Intimate? -Intimate, yeah.
-That's why Steve's wife was there. -[laughs]
[Taylor] It was an interesting lunch.
I definitely felt some tension between Jade and Eleonora.
Then at one point, Jade was like,
"I know you're interested in new development. I can help you out."
-She was not happy about that. -Yeah. I get it.
It seems like Jade was pitching you to work with her instead of El's team.
-It could have been perceived that way. -That'd be so ballsy.
I mean, those two, the way they are like… oh, I don't know.
I'm learning this.
So I don't know. We haven't spoken, actually, since then.
But we have a rollercoaster of a friendship.
We've been friends for a long time, and I know how to handle her.
We're in the same office now.
She's starting her team.
She's asking, you know, for my opinion about the girls.
Taylor on her team is asking me about new dev and all these things,
and if she wants to still move forward in a friendship, even,
like, we have to figure it out.
We've been down that road of not speaking.
We either need to stay on that road or get back on the bandwagon.
Probably not a good look for you.

-Hi! How are you? -Hi.
[Jordyn] I'm good. Sorry I'm late.
Okay, worth waiting for!
Hi. You look beautiful. [kiss]
It's cute, I've never been here.
I usually don't come this far downtown.
It's easy for me, from Brooklyn. You should have seen my walk.
[server] Hi guys, how are you?
-Hi. -Good, you?
-Welcome to Paris. -[both] Thank you.
-"Welcome to Paris." I love that. -I love it. [laughs]
[server] Let me pour some water. Can I get you something else to drink?
Yeah, can I do a mezcal on the rocks with a splash of water?
I would love the "Summer in Paris". That looks really good.
-[server] It's fresh watermelon juice. -Amazing. My language. Thank you.
-[server] Can I get you anything to eat? -I'm gonna do Chicken Milanese.
Can I please have your shishito peppers and then tuna tartare?
[server] No problem. Enjoy.
Thank you. Chicken Milanese. Bitch, I should have got that.
Take a bite of the mashed taters.
I don't think it has any good stuff. It has arugula and avocada.
It's like the potato of Manhattan.
[chuckles]
Nobody eats carbs. [chuckles]
-Thank you so much. -Thank you.
-Cheersies. -Cheers. To Irving.
First of many! Thank you.
I know that I have a lot to prove being the youngest, being the newest.
But I know Eleonora saw something in me,
and being a Southern girl who moved here with nothing
and I've gotten myself this far, I'm proud of that.
I love that.
-What brought you to Manhattan? -Love brought me here.
Love? Are you still with this guy?
-No, it ended, like, many, many years ago. -Okay.
He and I met on Twitter, which is so random.
-Is that a thing? -It's not. It should never be a thing.
But I was here visiting, and we met up.
But I was so nervous, like, he's a celebrity.
But at the time, he was a nobody.
-No one knew who he was. -Who is it?
Are you familiar with Trevor Noah from The Daily Show?
-Yeah! Oh, shit! -Yeah.
But I was so nervous that for some reason I was lunging down the street,
and he was like, "This girl's weird."
-Like actual lunging? -Yeah.
-I was the funnier one in the relationship -Oh, I believe it!
Trevor borrowed me for material all the time.
I think I was the subject of jokes from time to time,
but he would also steal my material, a hundred percent.
He ended up purchasing an apartment. It was my first ultra-luxury deal.
-I think it was a ten-million-dollar deal. -Okay, Miss Jordyn.
Thank you. It's the only time you'll ever hear I slept with a client.
Oh my God!
But yeah, it catapulted me past the rental
and, you know, the lower-end sales and got me into luxury, which was awesome.
That's amazing. Love brought you here,
but when that didn't work, you stayed.
Love kept me here, but not love for him.
-It was love for the city. -Love for the city.
-Awesome. Thank you. -This looks so good.
-Whoa! -Wow!
-Thank you. That smells good. -Take bites of this.
If you like tartare, have some.
-Can I try one of your shisheets? -Yeah!
-Shisheeties! -Thank you.
But yeah, I just feel like I wanted to be in New York forever.
-Did you know it was real estate? -I didn't. No.
-You came without a plan to figure it out? -Yeah. Maybe.
-That was me. I had no idea. -You can find anything here.
Yeah.
I feel like, you know, it's always hard… when you get thrown into a wolves' den
of gorgeous women who are all like badasses, you know?
-Trying to find your place. -It'd be a lot. Yeah.
But I want everyone to see, you know, who I am,
and drinking reposado shots is not gonna be the way to do that.
But, back at home, if you're an Irish Catholic like myself,
you're going to church hungover. That's just a thing [laughs]
All the people sub-40 are in there, literally bleeding out margaritas.
So, wild Saturday, early Sundays.
You still make it, you may have to crawl,
but you make it, then you go hair of the dog
and you get your mimosa, then you go to your open houses,
and you get your shit done. Like it's just this… it's the lifestyle.

-[Jade] Perfect. -[Eleonora] Hi.
-Hi. Welcome. -[Eleonora] This is Marisa.
-Hi. How are you? -Hi Marisa. I'm Jade.
-Nice to meet you. -You too.
-Welcome. -So bright and beautiful.
[upbeat music playing]
[Eleonora] Obviously things were weird at Jade's lunch,
but we've been in this business so long, we're all professionals.
Money and clients come first.
-You live in the building, right? -I do. Yes.
Come on in.
-I brought her up from the 21st floor. -What type of apartment are you in now?
-It's a two-bed. Yeah. -[Jade] We'll get bigger up here.
-I need to upgrade. -[Jade] I love it.
Marisa currently rents in this building,
but she loves it so much that she's considering buying a unit.
With it being such a huge financial jump from rent to mortgage,
I want to make sure she really loves it.
Marisa is the owner of SKINNEY Medspa.
They have several locations in New York,
and having a friend that owns a med spa comes with a lot of fun perks for me.
So I've done, like, the emsculpting thing,
pixel, lasers on the face.
There's a treatment called Morpheus 8
that is basically like, you know, a staple gun going into your face.
I would love to have liposuction on my cankles.
Most people would think the craziest thing I do is, like,
the… vagina stuff.
We do Botox to our face, to our bodies.
We want skin tightening everywhere.
So I don't see why we would neglect that area.
So, throughout here, you have a full Miele appliance package,
full wine fridge, I don't know if you like to entertain…
[Marisa] I drink a lot of wine.
-[Eleonora] She's Italian. -[Jade] I love it.
[Marisa] This is actually bigger.
-Is yours this big? -Yeah, I have a drawer.
With a penthouse, I assume I'd get a bigger freezer.
You'll get a bigger everything. Bigger bedroom, bigger great room.
-Look at the closets. You'll love them. -[Jade] You'll have the dual closets.
[Marisa] Much bigger and better than my closets.
-[Marisa] This is one ding better-- -[Eleonora] That's funny… what's this bag?
Uh, this is a… [giggles]
[Marisa] Oh, well.
[Jade] Come on, don't hate on the staging. We got a Louis Vuitton bag, come on.
[Marisa] This closet's so unassuming, it's so deep.
[Eleonora] They went through the effort to get the box, they couldn't get the bag?
Hating on the staging is not necessary.
Really, hating on anything in front of a client
is not necessary or appreciated.
-Here now… the primary bedroom. -[Marisa] Oh my God!
This bedroom is epic.
[Jade] Right? You have the corner bedroom. The north and eastern exposure.
[Marisa] It's so bright.
[Jade] You're overlooking the entire city,
and you just feel accomplished.
To be honest, this is actually probably the best bedroom view
I've seen in the city.
[Eleonora] You got the Empire State Building right in front of you,
you see a sliver of Central Park, you see 432 Park, One Vanderbilt.
You could just take my job as the listing agent. Look at you.
[laughter]
[Eleonora] You even see One57 and One11, the Chrysler Building, the UN.
[Jade] All of the city. You even get multiple bridges in this view.
You see the 59th Street Bridge,
the Manhattan Bridge getting over to Brooklyn.
-That's the Williamsburg Bridge. -The Williamsburg Bridge?
That's not the Manhattan. No one can see the Manhattan Bridge from this apartment.
This is the difference between having a native New Yorker
or a transplant as your broker.
If you were buying an apartment,
wouldn't you want your agent to know what they're selling you?
Wonder if you can see the Empire State Building from the bed?
Not from where it is in this staging.
[Jade] I bet if you were laying down, you could see.
[Marisa] Let's see.
[makes buzzer sound]
-[Jade] No? You can't see it? -No.
[Jade] I guess you can't see the top.
-[Marisa] I can't see it at all. -[Jade] Okay, fine.
To me, it's like, it's great to be corrected
if I've made a little mistake.
Point it out. I don't know. I guess I never said "Gavinchy"
but I would love for someone to tell me Givenchy.
You know? Like, you gotta know.
[Jade] Now to the main squeeze of the penthouse.
The great room. New York City smacks you in the face.
♪ Hello there ♪
-♪ Ooh ♪ -♪ I like what I see ♪
-[Marisa] I love this room. -[Jade] Right?
This could also be converted back into a fourth bedroom
because there is a bathroom over here too.
So there was a wall there, and they opened this up.
Or, obviously a guest bathroom.
-Exactly. It's a full bath, which is nice. -[Marisa] Oh, that is nice.
To upgrade in the building has been a dream of mine since I moved in.
It just depends on the price, I guess.
This is 15 million.
I've been watching the numbers of the building since 2019.
And this is way too high. You don't think?
It's a little more because we're higher up and it's also bigger.
This building actually captures great price per square foot.
You're teetering around the 4,000 a foot,
and this one now, we've priced it just below,
so it's ready to sell.
I think that what's important for me is the cost per carry.
So it just depends if the numbers work.
I could bid 10 million. Do you think they'll accept that offer?
We're not putting out any bids right now, and we're not talking numbers.
-This isn't going for ten mil. -I agree with you.
They're down to their last handful of units.
-[Marisa] Can't believe this hasn't sold. -They're gonna want to be done with it.
There's a lot coming up.
Like, look at that building across the street.
-You know that building? -[Eleonora] Yeah, I do.
-Maybe you can show me a listing there. -I can.
They haven't even built a sales gallery yet,
but I can get you access to get a presentation.
-[Marisa] That'd be amazing. -Eleonora's client lives in this building.
It should be a complete slam-dunk
to sell this apartment to her.
I have no idea why Eleonora would say, in front of me,
"We should go see other apartments also."
And that is why Eleonora and I have yet to close a deal together.
Don't worry, Marisa, I won't let you overpay.
I think that you should see everything.
-Of course, yeah. -I'll show you that one.
[Marisa] Yeah, as long as you can work your magic…
You're the best in the city, get me the best price per square foot.
-We can make an offer. -I got you.

Oh, at 53?
I'm just, you know, I'm there to support Jade and her building
and just trying to help some people out and…
There was definitely some head-butting going on.
Something wasn't jiving with Eleonora.
-She looked upset with Jade. -But aren't they friends?
I think they're good friends, but, you know,
this business can make people enemies.
Maybe Eleonora felt slighted.
We were at Jade's luncheon, you two did a deal together.
Maybe she felt like she wasn't totally included in what was going on.
It wasn't her show. I don't know.
Jade's, in my opinion, a consummate professional.
She's been around a long time. She's great.
She's in her lane. She does what she does. She does it well.
They're probably just competitive with one another.
I think there's a bit of peacocking.

I don't know. Girls will be girls.
Yeah, but they're not girls. They're women.

-[Eleonora] Have you done emsculpt? -[Taylor] No, never.
-It's basically like electric stimulation. -Okay.
Whatever, EMS therapy.
I actually have one I wear every morning while I brush my teeth.
Like a little band thing that I just got online.
Of course you do. Is that why your waist is so tiny?
No, my waist is small 'cause
I gain all my weight in my fucking arms and legs.
[Eleonora] It's good to just supplement a workout. I'd never…
[Taylor] We're not gonna be sweating or are we gonna be sweating?
[Eleonora] You're gonna be in pain.

-I like this place. It's pretty. -How are you? I know, it's great. Like--
Welcome in.
We're here for our appointment with Marisa.
-I will take you guys back. Follow me. -Great.
[Taylor] I'm glad El took me out, but I don't know what I'm in for.
[chuckles]
[assistant] You guys ready?
-We'll see. -Taylor's nervous. Start with her.
This is gonna make your muscles contract.
It's like doing 20,000 crunches in 30 minutes.
So we basically just don't want any metal on around it.
[Eleonora] You have any piercings?
[laughing] No! Do I like look like I have a piercing down there?
I know that you have a freaky side that you don't want to share with us.
In my opinion, the freaky sides on this team are not that secret.
You should see our group text messages.
I think that they should be banned in some countries.
None of us can compete with Gisselle. Or Jordyn, for that matter.
-Lay back. -This is great.
-Torture her. -Better?
By the way, make it very light for me, and turn it up all the way for Taylor.
Ooh! [chuckles]
-[assistant] It's okay? -Yeah, it's totally fine.
[rapid pulsing]
Oh, it really-- Good gosh!
-Yeah. -Okay.
[chuckles] How's it feel? Okay?
-[nervous laugh] -[Eleonora] Is hers higher?
-Yes. -Great.
-Hi. Good to see you. -Hi. What's up?
Hi, nice to meet you. I'm Taylor.
-Marisa, nice to meet you. -Do you guys work together?
Yeah. Taylor's like the star on our team.
Under Eleonora.
By the way, I knew Marisa and her sister really started with nothing.
They were doing laser hair removal.
-Really? -And now they own, like-- yeah.
-Incredible. -They built their business.
And she's oddly enough, like, obsessed with 277 Fifth.
-Great building. That's exciting. -I know. Yeah.
Then you guys are all set!
-This has been great. -Thanks.
[Eleonora] What's going on with you?
I think you've been really busy this year, from what I noticed.
Your business has exploded. You're taking on a lot by yourself.
It's just exponential. It's been a domino effect,
and other things have come up for you.
Everything's coming at once. Which is good. It's a blessing.
I'm so grateful for it.
But trying to manage it all is… it's a lot.
And then not being able to have great one-on-one time with your partner,
it can take a toll.
You know, it's like, there's a lot of… stress in real estate.
I'm on my phone a lot. I know that bothers him.
And I get it because I would feel the exact same way.
Well, what's his love language? Have you tried to figure that out?
Yeah, I mean, it's like spending quality time together.
-Time together. -Yeah. So that's been really hard.
-But… [gasps] It's very hard. -Sorry.
Yeah.
But I feel like you can have it all, but not all at one time.
And unfortunately, like… Peter's had to take the back seat to…
What you're doing now.
I've been with so many guys who are like, "I hate that you're always on your phone."
And I literally am like, "I am working on a 20-million dollar deal."
"I don't make a salary."
"Can you forgive the fact that for the next few weeks
I will be on my phone?"
And that's what's like, honestly, so hard about this job sometimes,
is that it's 24/7. We have to be available when our clients aren't working.
When they're done with their job at 8 o'clock,
they call you, and you're sitting down for dinner.
Exactly. So it's hard.
Especially when his love language is spending quality time together.
-Well, it's mine too, but… -It's yours too?
Yeah, I think so. I don't know if I believe in that shit. But yeah.
-[sighs] -[soft music playing]
Look, as much as I would love, like, for you to be single,
work hard and hit the town with me,
I really do believe in the institution of marriage.
I do too. It's true. He's…
-He's my family. -Yeah. Yeah.
We've been together now a decade, but I think that, like,
throughout that… those ten years, so much has changed.
I've changed so much. I moved to New York.
I didn't really have a job. I was struggling with Lyme disease and…
Yeah.
[soft emotional music playing]
He's a really good guy.
I don't know. We'll see, you know, I think any relationship, any marriage,
where you've been together for a decade is not easy.
Relationships are really fucking hard.
Yeah.
Especially in New York, especially with this job, like…
[Taylor sniffles]
You know, and I'm sober and in recovery and like,
that wasn't a part of my life when we got together, and now it is.
It wasn't a big part of your life?
No, I just wanted to be accepted. I didn't wanna be this person
that was known as the person who didn't drink.
I first got sober when I was 21.
I didn't have a ton of self-confidence.
I started drinking in high school,
and then when I went to Vanderbilt, I got on Adderall.
When I took Adderall for the first time, it felt like I could do it all.
Finally.
Quickly, the physical dependence was out of control.
I had MRSA all over my face and skin.
So I had lesions all over me, and I was about 80 pounds.
The doctor said, you know, you can either accept help…
Otherwise, I give you… two months.
To live.
I just wanted to like blend in when he and I first got together,
I just wanted to be a part of.
Now I have a community of people and go to meetings.
It's a big part of my life. I feel like I've really become
so much more confident, knowing who I am.
And it's hard because sometimes it feels like a square peg in a round hole.
And I don't want to.
Do you really feel like you've changed that much?
-Yeah. -You're like a different person?
I've always been this person, but I've just grown into my own, you know?
Have you ever experienced like…
this Taylor who knows herself just like, as single?
As a relationship, like, with yourself?
No.
[soft meditative music playing]
Of those ten years, like, how many were good?
How many were great? Forget good.
We've had a… like, we've… I don't know how to quantify it.
When we have great moments…
Talking about 50%? Like, what are your odds here?
Ten years together.
Yeah. I would say, like, four were really good,
and six have been really hard. So…
Dude, Taylor, you have one life to live.
I always say that about time. And you know, like, I love Peter.
And I actually do think he will, like, stand behind you gladly.
-But, you deserve to be happy. -Thanks.
And so, like, do you see that happiness with him?
Is that where you're trying to get to?
I don't know. I'm not there yet.
[sniffs]
When I was dating this guy, he'd always say,
"If planes crashed 50% of the time, would you still get on them?"
-Yeah. -[scoffs]
I'm like the old hag who can't get a man, so I don't know what to tell you.
For me, like, I look at what you have,
and it would be great to have companionship or partnership, but, like…
I'm not…
making any decisions.
And I don't think that, like… I have to right now.
