[song fades]
Enjoy.
-How's everything? -There's been so much.
I know. Yeah. How's everything going? There's so much going on.
I know. How are things with you and Eleonora?
Girl, I have to have a sip for a second.
[quiet rhythmic music playing]
Prior to the team even being a team,
before it even was a thing, me and Eleonora were already friends.
Me and her have been through our issues where we've gone at it head to head.
Right now, we're all in this situation where it's like
we have to protect each other,
we're a sisterhood and all these things, but it's like… but we're not.
Like, we should be, and we can be.
I feel like it's getting tougher and tougher for us to figure out
how to manage these… relationships.
-Yeah. -Like, as far as, like, Jade.
-I like Jade. -Do you trust her?
I don't know if I can.
I never told anybody this,
but before Jade called Taylor for new development stuff,
Jade came to me and said,
"Abi, this is how we're going to establish trust."
"I'm trusting you not to tell Eleonora this."
"I'm meeting with Taylor. I'm not telling Eleonora
what I'm doing this week."
She's like, "I don't want her up my ass anymore."
Then Jade asked me to go grab a drink the other night.
I don't know why. I thought it was an olive branch.
I was excited we were hanging out. Then she unloaded all of this shit on me.
The shit she says about Eleonora is fucked up.
She came for Eleonora's appearance. She said she's a ho,
she doesn't dress professionally, and her business isn't what it looks like.
[tense music playing]
-[quietly] Did Jade say Eleonora's a ho? -Yeah.
No fucking way.
She didn't say she fucks for business. But she's like…
[mocking] "Some people are going out every night
and entertaining their clients, and other people are going to work."
Entertaining your clients? Tell me what that means.
-That's horrible. -That's your best friend.
Clearly not.
Why was she venting to me? She doesn't like me.
-She doesn't know me. -Period.
I think she was trying to manipulate me because I don't know why she'd tell me.
This was totally a mindfuck by Jade.
I went from her being so mean to me, calling me thirsty.
I'm like, thirsty for what, bitch? Who are you?
The only thing I'm thirsty for is my man and fucking Pinot Grigio, okay?
-Jade is pulling strings. -It's a Jade thing.
She is creating this toxic environment, and I think that's what she wants.
She has been telling Eleonora, "I told you not to start a team."
"You shouldn't have done this."
She wants us to fail. She is our biggest rooter for failure.
She needs to just stick to her new developments
and let us do our thing and just fall back.
Jade said things and made comments about each and every one of us.
-Yes. -Me included.
Yes! And she just shit-talked her "best friend" of ten years.
Like, I don't fucking care about her. She's not on our fucking team, okay?
There's going to be competition at a brokerage
and there's always people who don't really like you.
But we are all at Douglas Elliman.
I don't know why Jade wants to disrupt as much as possible.
Will it work?
I sure hope not.
In my mind, like, our team of five, this is family
and this needs to be locked and fucking loaded.
-Nothing should infiltrate this. -Absolutely.
Jade, Justin, whatever. We will be amicable.
We will get our business done with them when it needs to happen.
They are not important to the fucking family unit.
This is like the Pentagon.
And the second something infiltrates this, we are all fucked.

Knock, knock.
Welcome. I feel like it's been so long.
It has been too long.
-How are you? -I'm great. How are you?
-Great. I'm actually really excited. -Look at this place.
Isn't this amazing?
This is amazing.
Yeah. So this is like the southeast corner,
but you get the whole view of the island here.
-Isn't it great? -The ceiling height is insane.
-Yeah. Want to take a look around? -Yeah.
Tell me everything I should know.
[Eleonora] Perfect. 3,831 square feet.
-Wow. -So it's a four bed, four-and-a-half bath.
The apartment obviously is a duplex. It's on the 40th and 41st floor.
This is sort of a very iconic New York developer.
Actually the same ownership as the American Copper Building,
which is right there.
Jade is not the only one who has new development.
This building is owned by Meyer Orbach, who is a good friend and client of mine.
This is why you want to work with someone like me.
I know the powerful players in New York.
This is a potential, tremendous opportunity for my team,
not just in this building, but with this developer.
Look, they have solid floors, white oak, six-inch planks,
all Gaggenau appliances.
-Garbage disposal. -Right.
And wait till you see the amenities. There's a 70-foot lap pool,
fitness center, children's playroom, screening room.
It's really how you want to live in New York.
The best part, parking.
There's parking?
Having parking in the building is such a rare amenity.
There are some condos where parking has sold
for as much as 1.2 million dollars.
Because in New York City, there literally is no parking.
If you watch Seinfeld,
half the episodes are about parking spots in New York City.
So let's go upstairs.
-See this internal elevator? -[Taylor] Wow.
-How cute. Great, right? -[Taylor] Yes.
[Eleonora] And I love an enclosed water closet.
No one needs to hear you when you're… doing that.
[jazzy music playing]
We're facing east, so you've got the greatest sunrise here.
This is the great borough of Queens.
-Okay, so before you leave… -Yes.
I want to talk to you about something. And I'll preface it by saying
that it's not the most comfortable thing for me to bring up to you.
-Okay. -Don't.
-Oh, God. -Um…
[quiet, tense music playing]
Look, it came to my attention that…
that you were asking for
more money from Corporate.
Obviously, I was surprised. I didn't expect it.
And, um, I… was actually a little sad because I wish that this was something
that you had been able to come to me about.
Uh…
Wow. Okay. Um…
[string instrument crescendo]
I…
I'm very sorry that you found out the way that you did.
They see us as a whole. You should know that.
There wouldn't have been a way for me not to know.
It wasn't something that I was trying to do to be shifty.
I think it was more… probably embarrassment.
Do you understand your embarrassment about coming to me
-has caused me embarrassment? -Yes.
The last thing I need is for them to say that we're, like, not actually producing.
And it was particularly shocking because it came from you,
who's like, you are married, you are established, you are accomplished.
-Yeah. -What is going on here?
A few things.
There's pressure. I'm the breadwinner.
And in New York City real estate especially,
the market can be, like, feast or famine.
And you have to get really smart about money so that during those times
when nothing is happening, you know, you're still good.
Right.
The last two years have been a lot.
My dad got very sick.
And that was an expense that I wanted to take on.
And it is not one that I could actually necessarily afford.
-[emotional music playing] -[quietly] Okay.
That said, you know, we're also family planning,
and talking about IVF.
And, you know, fertility treatments, they are very expensive.
I've done them. I know.
And we're also having to, plan B,
save up for what most likely will have to be a surrogate.
-Me too. I can't carry. Yeah. -I didn't know that.
I was born with only one kidney
and two uteri.
So in theory,
I could have some sort of operation on my uterus
that would allow me to carry probably once.
But I certainly can't get pregnant naturally.
-No one's slipping one past the goalie. -Okay.
[laughs]
The time when I first started making money, look, instead of…
I had been waiting my whole life to buy a Chanel bag, but I didn't.
I did fertility several times over, which by the way, like, sucks.
Money comes and goes. You know, you're not poor,
you're broke right now. That's temporary. It changes.
You deserve to be here, and you have to act like you're here. Right?
And I don't want you to, like, work from a place of fear or desperation.
Even if that's inside, I never want that to show.
For sure.
I want this to go away.
I want you to work from a place of confidence.
So I'm going to take care of this for you.
-Okay? -Thank you.
-There will be a check. -Thank you.
And, like, you got to give me some grace if there is ever anything.
You can talk to me about anything.
-There's no-- Okay. -Yeah.
We will work together on what the right solution is.
-Thank you. -Okay. So give me a hug.
Let's… both of us, I think, really were like…
Yep.
This one was a whatever, but like, I hope we turn the page now.
Yes. I want to figure out the buyer for this apartment
so we never have this conversation again.
I agree.

This is exactly what I should have imagined for your birthday.
Steve, you want a shot? We're getting a round.
-I'll take a tequila shot. -Yeah?
[band playing rock music]
Jade, you're really scarfing that down.
People think I'm such a New Yorker and New Yorkers hate country music
and barbecue.
And that's not entirely true. Okay?
I went to college, not in New York, and I learned to enjoy country music.
And I love that Justin is being true to himself as, like, the urban cowboy.
He loves these, sort of, salt-of-the-earth bars
and his weird big belt buckles and cowboy boots.
But he'll also drive to Woodbury Commons with me for, like, the Tom Ford sale.

[Gisselle] The asking is 5,495,000. It's 2,900 square feet.
There's 43 stories in the building.
So the top 16 floors are the condo residences.
Have any other four bedrooms sold in the building?
-There have been others that've sold. -What's the comps?
Um, I can definitely look into that for you.
And then does the rental side share with the condo side?
It's a little confusing when you come in.
Yeah. The residence has their own private concierge.
You have in-house dining services.
What do you mean by in-house dining services? Sorry.
It's okay. So there's a restaurant in the building
that caters to the condominiums.
So if I want any food, I can just phone up?
You can phone up the concierge.
Amazing. I've got two kids, so, okay.
-So that's-- -And then-- Sorry.
The other thing I like is the swimming pool.
What's the hours?
It's open all day long. And it's a 70-foot lap pool.
Okay, because where I live, they have really ridiculous hours.
When my kids have lessons, it's a nightmare. So--
This client is very particular.
Before I could even answer a question, she's already asking the other question.
You get this beautiful view.
-And then has someone lived here before? -So this is a sponsor unit.
-So nobody's lived here. -Right.
So I'm working overtime with this woman, just trying to make it work.
Because not being able to answer one question
will be the difference between her picking me or picking a different agent.
Your taxes are a little over 4,700.
Common charges are about the same, a little over 4,800.
The ceilings are a little over nine-foot ceilings.
-Okay. -These are white oak floors.
So the entire building has the same throughout,
white oak floors.
-Can we have a look around? -Yes.

You have this beautiful primary en-suite bathroom

There's a lot of storage space.
Actually, personally, I think there's not enough storage space.
Well, there's never enough for us.
Right. Where I am now, they have so much storage space.
-[Gisselle] Where are you now? -In Tribeca.
I love Tribeca. It's a great area.
So what makes you want to come up this way?
To be honest, I just think that my son's going to go to school up here.
So he's turning five,
and all the kindergarten up schools seem to be uptown, east side, or west side.
Are there any good schools around here?
So I've definitely looked into it a little bit,
and I know there's, like, PS116.
There are some private schools in the area.
Do you know which?
There's UNIS Private School. There's Goddard School.
No, I don't know it. No. And then transport, is there tran--
-Transport? -Yeah.
For…
Like, does the school bus come to this building, or is it…
That's something else I would definitely look into for you,
and get you that info.
I know that the subway is, like, walking distance from here.
And which subway ones? What's the train lines?
[Gisselle] Um…
-I'm not sure, sorry. -Okay, no worries.
And then one other question, is there other families in this building?
Because it's right by the highway, because my son's turning five, so…
I know my husband's a little funny about the kids coming out
and it's a highway right where we live.
I think it's a mixed demographic in the building.
[Natalie] And then I have a question, like, can you make alterations?
It's all up for discussion, depending on the alterations.
What kind of alterations would you be interested in making?
I haven't looked around yet.
No, this view's really pretty. It's a perfect, clear day, isn't it?
[Gisselle] We couldn't have picked a better day to come in here.
[Natalie] I want to see the kitchen. With…
[tense music playing]
I want to see the fridge and see how big it is.
[Gisselle] It's a great size.
[Natalie] For a four-bedroom, I think I need another.
-[Gisselle] We can figure that one out. -Where would you put it?
Maybe where that wall is.
Maybe. Anyway, I'd be more interested to see the, um…
-The larger units. -…the larger ones.
Okay, there is a penthouse that's available.
It has an amazing great room with 20-foot ceilings.
His and hers closet.
That would be nice. That would be perfect.
[laughter]
-Then I'd just have to go shopping more. -Exactly.
I'll look into everything for you. It's our first time meeting.
So now that I know specifically what you're looking for,
I can better help you.
-Now that I have a better understanding. -Okay, cool.
This woman definitely tested me, and she chewed me up and spit me out.
[chuckles]
But I've learned that at the end of the day,
we're all just human beings.
So as long as I can pinpoint what your needs are, I can make the sale.
I'll have Eleonora connect us about the penthouse.
We can take it from there.
-So nice to meet you. -Thank you. Bye.

[sighs]
Yeah, so…
[sighs]
Been a long day for me. Long week. How are you doing?
I've been better.
Yeah, that was a crazy party. I'm still hungover.
I know. You're still coming to my team anniversary party, right?
-Mm-hmm. -[laughs] Cool.
I wanted to meet you 'cause I have an offer for you on this penthouse.
-Okay. -Believe it or not.
I love an in-person offer presentation. Thank you.
Well, it's no secret this has been on the market.
You've been on the market with, what, three other brokers?
-You're the fourth. -Am I the fourth?
-I think so. -I think I might be the third. But okay.
Whatever.
Maybe. Maybe… Maybe so.
It's never looked as good as it has.
-Thank you. -So kudos to you.
I think the showing was a little interesting, to say the least.
It's complicated.
But the reason I brought them is because
I thought something like this could resonate.
-And it did. -Okay.
I think the size and scale, and really location had a real appeal to them.
Yeah. Great.
On the flip side, there's a lot of things that…
tough to even get them to the table, but I did.
You know, the primary bathroom was a little bit narrow.
[woman] And this is the main bedroom.
Lack of closet space in the primary.
-That's going to be a big turnoff. -Yeah.
For their needs, I think it could work.
It just doesn't work with a four handle in front.
And I don't know if it works with a three handle.
Okay.
[laughs]
Don't make me laugh.
So what are we talking?
-The offer I'm authorized to present you… -Okay.
…28.5 million dollars.
[glockenspiel playing]
Okay.
I'm not going to say it's a final offer,
but it's certainly not very far off from where they'll be.
Okay. So 4,500 a foot, almost even is where you got me.
Let me call the owner.
That's not ideal, but it's still something I can work with.
Amazing. Do your magic. Let's make a deal.
Let me call and see if I can get you a counter.
-Amazing. Thank you. -All right.
-[sighs] -[door creaks softly]
Steve's offer is low, and he knows it.
But when it comes to negotiating, you have to know how to play the game.
And luckily, I'm ready to play.
I might be the third broker, but I'm also gonna be the last broker.
[dramatic music playing]
We now have an offer.
Steve Gold brought a buyer, and I guess they want to
offer 28.5, which is 4,500 a foot.
I mean, it's crazy because, like, no one offers 40% off, really.
But look, it's a start. So what do you think?
Yeah. Okay. All right. Bye.
-Hi. -Hey.
-Okay. -What you got for me?
I think I did kind of okay for you, actually.
Kind of okay. Okay.
I got him to a new asking price,
which is going to be 39,995.
Okay? So that's actually where we're going to list next week.
But I did you, actually, a little better.
I would hope so.
We'll knock a million and a half off.
-So, 38.5. -38.5
So now we're, like, ten million apart.
That's a start.
I think it's still far away. But let me talk to my client first.
-Ultimately, their decision. -Talk to them.
But what I am doing is, I'm giving you ten million dollars off
the last asking price for the last ten years.
Something to work with.
-All right. -Okay?
Let me give 'em a call.
Go enjoy your beautiful terraces and call.
[suspenseful music playing]
[sighs]
[music intensifies]
[Steve] How's it going?
Yeah, I'm great. So I delivered the offer.
Obviously, it was met with some resistance.
It came back at 38.5 million dollars.
But I know this one kind of resonated with you
for many reasons and, you know, wanted to get your thoughts
on where that's going to be.
So you want that as best and final?
[tense music playing]
So I'll deliver that.
Let's see what happens. All right. Bye-bye.
-Hello. -Hi. I didn't want to interrupt.
-No, a little long-winded. But I had to… -Yeah. Talk to me.
I got them to come up.
Does it have a three in front of it?
-[tense music playing] -Here's the deal.
There's a lot of things here that just aren't perfect for them.
The problem with this park in particular is because of its lengthwise and width,
when you're this high, you don't see it.
The key to this park is the key.
They're not going to chase this. They're not in love.
Maybe you will find someone else. But the risk is maybe you won't.
Okay.
With that said, I could give you 30 million. I got you a three in front.
Wow. See? Okay.
It's a million and a half more.
I wish you had cleared 5,000 a foot.
To be honest, they wanted a bit lower.
I said, at least subconsciously give them the 30.
Give them the three.
And for me, now that I subconsciously got him to a three,
I have to see if there's someone out there who will do the 35,
who will get me 5,500 a foot.
Has he ever had an offer in all of the time?
Well, he's never had me as a broker in all of the time.
I'm not an idiot. This apartment has been on the market for a very long time,
and I am not going to lose this deal over eight million dollars.
My client's hopping on a plane right now, but let me run some numbers,
and let me see if I can get you another counter.
Just remind him of the history, and bird in the hand.
I get it. Let's see what we can make happen.

I've decided to host a party to celebrate the one-year anniversary of having a team.
I've invited brokers, friends, but most importantly, clients.
I'm having my friend Greg from Leviev Diamonds
bring some of his incredible jewelry to show off at the party
so we can all celebrate in style.
The most expensive thing that Greg has here tonight is on my neck.
It's more than five million dollars.

Hey, how you doing? What's going on? Steve.
[dynamic jazzy music playing]
Hi.
[Gisselle] I love this.
Trying to whip these bitches into shape.
[Eleonora] I don't wanna drop her celebrity clients, but, like…
Rhymes with… [laughs]
Rhymes with top five richest people in the world.
Epic.
Have you talked to Eleonora?
-Yeah, we spoke. -Okay.
I think we have definitely a mutual understanding
that, like, we know there's issues.
-Right. -But we love each other.
There was a part of me that wanted to call her Mom.
[laughter]
[indistinct party chatter]
What do you think of this bunch of people?
[man] They're all very stylish.
-Did you order shots? -We're still waiting.
[Steve] We're still waiting.
-[Abi] Yeah, one girl doesn't like me. -[man] What dress?
Right there in the yellow. The dress that's not cute. [chortles]
I'm biting my tongue tonight.
I find it incredibly hypocritical
to see Jade… smiling, and acting like everything's okay
when she shit-talks everybody in this room.
At some point, once we're all very lubricated,
then we'll call her ass out.
Congratulations on one year together.
-You didn't kill each other. -Not yet.
Would not be opposed.
-Cheers. -Cheers.
Cheers.
How am I supposed to talk? It's so loud.
How do you tell everyone to shut the fuck up? Hello!
-[loudly] Everybody! -[shouts] Hey!
Wait! The lady of the evening wants to say something!
So, we are here tonight
to celebrate about a year… [chuckles]
…of being a team.
I don't remember how we started. Gisselle was before there was a real team.
And then Taylor, and then Jordyn, and Abi.
I am so proud of you being here for a year, and, um…
I may not have been the best boss or the best friend,
but I still think I was the best real estate agent.
-[laughter] -[Abi] Damn straight!
I want to shout out our other friends in the industry that are here.
I think, Steve, for you this year,
you have become a force to be reckoned with.
Justin, my love. [chuckles]
You are now on your own for the first time,
and you're crushing it, and I couldn't be happier for you.
And then… where's Jade?
-[Jade] I'm here. -Behind you.
-[Eleonora] You couldn't get up? -[Jade] I'm not here for the speech.
[Eleonora] We need-- Okay.
-[Jade] I'll stand in the crowd. -And Jade, by the way…
Who is the queen of new development
but has now ventured off and done something that none of us have
and taken over other markets.
I couldn't be prouder of you, this team. There's something for all of us.
If any place is going to give you a second shot…
-That's New York. -Best city in the world.
And so, to my team, I hope that we take whatever happened this year,
the good, the bad, and we make a brand-new start of it for us.
To another year. But most of all, cheers to New York.
[loud cheering]
-Cheers! -[glasses clinking]
Cheers, cheers, cheers.
-Cheers! -Cheers.
-Beautiful speech. -Thanks.
-Very proud of you. -Thank you.
[dissonant music playing]
Very nice to meet you.
What is this?
-Blueberry torte tart. -Try one with me.
Let's try it.
-I remember turning 30, I was like, "Ah!" -Right.
Then it became some of the best years of my life
and now everyone that I talk to that's like 45, they're like, "Dude…"
It keeps getting better.
Did you have any of the caviar?
[indistinct chatter]
-I feel like I haven't spoken to you. -I haven't spoken to you at all.
-By the way, you look amazing. -You look… Thank you!
But what's going on with you? Like, talk to me.
It's been a rough year. It's been good, but also hard and tough.
Well, let me ask you this.
Have you and Eleonora kind of mended the fences?
Look, I think that, like, she and I are in a place where… we're fine.
We're fine.
-Mm-hmm. -[indistinct chatter]
I don't think she wants to lose me.
While she may disagree with how I've handled things
and everything like that, I still have a strong business
and I am closing deals. So, at the end of the day--
100%. And you're really the only one on her team who's actually self-producing.
Right.
So I think there is an opportunity for you to be on any team in the city.
I would love to have you on my team one day if I ever make one.
But look, I wouldn't bet against Eleonora.
I've been friends with her for a long time.
One of the most loyal people I know. Yeah. She is a ride or die.
She is not one to bet against.
[soft piano music playing]
Yeah.
I love Eleonora. I really do.
But I also really like Taylor. She's charismatic. She's talented.
But I don't want to disrespect Eleonora,
and I don't want to see any more conflict in our office.
[music intensifying]
-Justin. -Hi, darling.
-Thank you for having me. This was great. -It's been fun.
-Yes. Thank you. Happy to be here. -I'm so happy you're here.
-Always here to support you. -Day one homie.
-Always here too. -Yeah, we go way back.
All the love in the world for you.
People always say you're from the South, but you're actually not.
Ah. I just--
You're a nice Midwestern guy who belongs in New York.
But half of my heart is here. Half of my heart is there.
Is that still in the works,
or are you, like, done with the Nashville thing?
You know, I'm definitely not done with it.
I love New York, but someday I want little babies to run around.
And not in some little backyard.
I want them to ride their bikes, take a yellow bus to school.
I grew up in Soho and I took a yellow bus to school.
So Justin, the writing is on the wall. One day you will leave New York.
Like, I will.
All right, but for now, since I'm tied to New York and I'm never going anywhere…
That's fine.
Can I keep you here for a little while longer?
-I'm not leaving tomorrow. -[chuckling] Okay.
-I don't think. -Well, I need you here right now.
Well, I got you. I do adore you, and I love you.
-I love you too. -I know.
[romantic synth music playing]
-This was cute. Like, a great celebration. -This was a nice night. Yeah.
-How do you feel? It's like one year. -I can't believe it's been a year.
We're generally in a good place.
There have been some, 'like, hiccups and hard moments.
But I think they're all coming together now.
-Mm-hmm. -And that's it.
What's going on with Taylor? Like…
Look, Taylor is by far the most seasoned agent.
You know me. Like, once I know someone has the capacity to, like, lie…
I know.
…that, like, switch flips. So it's hard for me.
And that's not, you know, not on her. She's apologized.
And I hear her, and I see her.
And I want Taylor more than anything to find her independence
and to find her voice.
And I've done nothing more but, like… than help her.
But certainly… once I know that someone can be untruthful…
[soft music playing]
-It's hard to go back. -It's hard. Right? I always remember that.
But that's something that I know within myself that I need to, like,
learn to move on from.
You know, it's funny because I just had a conversation with her also.
And, like, whether there's some, like, internal bullshit going on,
she's definitely still fully, like…
-Committed? -Yes.
Okay.
Well, I'm happy that you and I can celebrate that.
-On the same page. -Exactly.
-Okay. Cheers. -Cheers to that.
Happy one year.
-Perfect. -Cheers.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
-Which one is ginger ale? -Taylor.
-Thank you. -You sure?
-Yeah. -Okay.
-That would be weird. -That'd be weird!
What a time to start drinking.
Cheers to keeping it real and letting the fake bitches live in fear.
-Cheers. -Cheers to that.
-Whoa! -Oh shit.
-Have you had a conversation with Jade? -No, she runs.
No. I want to look her in the eyes,
and I want to know what type of person she is.
Are you willing to look me in the eyes and lie?
If she is, you just know.
Then I know you're fucking dead. You guys are my family.
And anybody who fucks with our family, you're going to get the fucking wrath.
I don't want to disrupt a decade-long friendship, okay?
You were taking the fall. Eleonora was about to rip your ass.
But I will say, I don't think her intention
was me getting thrown under the bus.
Why would she tell me that?
[tense music playing]
That is fucking manipulation.
Do you think there's a world where she admits to it?
If she doesn't, she's going to look like the biggest asshole.
-Hi. -Beauty queens!
Hello, ladies!
-What's up? -We've been drinking the bar without you.
Have you had a good night just celebrating with everybody?
-Have you? -I know.
Of course!
Well, how crazy that all of our friends, clients, like, actually, like…
Show up?
-That's what you say. -[Eleonora] It shows!
-To say the least! -[Eleonora] All morning.
[Abi] Can we go have a little chat just for a sec?
No.
-Okay. -[chuckles]
I would really like to kind of clear the air and talk.
[uncomfortable chuckle]
No.
[Abi] We're all able to set boundaries.
I'm just curious why you don't want to talk.
-I just, like… what are we talking about? -There's been a lot of she said, she said.
I'd like to set the narrative straight.
It's 10:30.
Called.
Truth will set you free! Some people want to run!
-[Eleonora] What's going on? -Okay, honey.
Do you want to sit down and talk or walk away?
What just happened?
I've heard a lot of things you've said about me,
about people I work with.
And I would really like to move forward in a positive manner.
-But if you just want to walk away… -[laughs]
Stop this right now. Seriously. Stop this right now.
I'm not doing anything. I'm trying to talk to you.
No. No.
-We're doing-- Okay. -No.
I'm not doing anything. She's been saying mean things.
-No, I haven't. -[Eleonora] Hold on.
You've never said that I look old?
-[scoffs] -[Eleonora] Hold on.
-First of all… First of all… -Hold on.
Okay. Yeah.
Like, this is… this is not happening.
-I'm not doing this. -Hold on.
People who don't want to acknowledge the truth run.
-Take this off me. -[Jordyn] Abi!
Don't understand why you're not willing to have a conversation?
[Jade] You're pathetic.
I'm not having a conversation, like, a 12-year-old.
Thank God it's not us.
[Jade] You don't know me.
But you seem to have a lot to say about me.
Like, fuck this. No!
Like, Jade, nobody's trying to trap you into anything.
-Stop talking to me, then. -No, stop talking about me, then.
Like, this is my team. This is my family.
I'm trying to work this out with you so we can be cohesive.
[laughing] Okay.
Where's my bag?
It must be very scary to be confronted with the truth.
You did a very good job. [scoffs]
-[Eleonora] Okay. -I would like to work this out.
Hold on. I got it. But, so…
No, but you're a different person off-camera!
I am not a different person off-camera.
You're very nasty off-camera.
You want to have this conversation right now?
You do look old. You do look old.
-Interesting. -Come on, Jade.
Don't say this. You look older than you are.
Tell me you're projecting without telling me you're projecting.
-I'm not. I'm-- -You are.
I'm so, so sorry that you feel like you have to tear another woman down.
[Jade, distant] No. No, that's not…
-That's not fair. -[Abi] It's like you… Guess what.
I don't work a nine-to-five. I don't have PTO.
Neither do I, honey.
You're on salary, honey.
You don't know fucking shit about me.
All I know is you looked me in the eye and said, "I am hanging out with Taylor."
"I'm putting my trust in you not to tell Eleonora this."
"I don't want her up my ass." Did you say that or not?
-Okay. -Say yes or no, Jade. Yes or no!
I'm not doing this.
If any of this fucking airs, I'll sue every single one of your asses.
-[Abi] Can't admit it. -[Jade] Because I am done.
This is fucking bullshit.
-[Eleonora] Can we find a way to… -Holy shit.
-…talk about this? -[Gisselle] This is a lot.
-You're not gonna call me a liar! -I didn't call you a liar.
-[Abi] Yes, you did! -[Jade] I'm not talking to her.
I'm not doing this. I'm a grown-ass woman with a real career.
You're not a grown woman. A grown woman would confront this.
Jade. Jade.
No! All of you guys, where is my fucking bag?
[Abi] You will not accept the truth!
-Where is my fucking bag? -That's why you're in new development.
[Eleonora] I'm gonna get your fucking bag.
[Jade] Camera better get out of my fucking face.
-[Gisselle] Come here for a second. -[Jade] Because I swear to God.
-[Gisselle] Come here. -[Jade] No.
[Gisselle] Hold on. Just one second. Don't say anything.
-[Jade] I'm not mic'd. I'm done. -[Gisselle] I know. I am. I am.
-Just stop right here, okay? -[Jade] No, no, no. I'm done.
I just thought that when I called her out that she would deny it.
Like, I didn't think she would… [gasping sobs]
…say it to my face.
[Gisselle] Jade, this is a lot for all of us.
[Jade] Somebody should open their fucking mouth to her.
[Gisselle] Just breathe.
[Jade] If somebody doesn't open their fucking mouth to her…
-[Gisselle] We're all lost. -Somebody should say something.
-Like, you don't look old. -[crying] I don't care about looking old.
She has no idea what I've been through.
Nobody does.
-[Jade] I am not mic'd. Fuck you, Netflix. -Just breathe! Just breathe for a second.
[Jade] Fuck you, Netflix.
Like, this is not happening.
Fuck Netflix. Fuck everybody.
