Previously on
"Southern Charm"...

I love
that I have my own bedroom.

Honestly, it makes me
feel so much better.

As Craig and Paige
flirted with suburban life

and Olivia and Rod
flirted with each other...

Is this like
a whole tear away?

Snap 'em.

Yeah, I have, like,
a G-string under there.

[laughs]
Oh, my God.

Austen and Taylor
flirted with disaster.

I told Shep that we did kiss.

[tense music]

Cheers.

And as word spread
about their tryst...

Austen confessed
that him and Taylor hooked up.

And then there's
the nude photograph

she sent you.
- ♪ Scandal

It seemed
the only person

who didn't know
was Olivia herself.

The full truth
is that we did kiss.

♪ Whoa

Oh, God.

So when she showed up
to Shep's dinner party...

Guess I lied.

But I'm listening
to him, too.

[BLEEP] him.

Why are you still listening
to him?

It wasn't just
the pheasant that went

from the frying pan
into the fire.

Between the two of y'all,
the lies,

it's unreal, un----ing real.

No, he does not like this.

[knocking]
- Come in.

You've got
to get the door, Craig.

What?

- You have to get the door.
- Hello?

Don't just say come in.
- Hey!

Hello.

Oh, my gosh,
so good to see you.

Oh, I have so much sh--
to talk.

Oh, my God,
look at this place.

Paige, you have
outdone yourself.

- Thank you.
- This was on your front step.

- Oh, thanks.
- Here, come. Sit over here.

I'll take your bag.
- OK.

Yeah, we have, like,
a real dining room table now.

- Isn't it cute?
- Go look at the pool.

Oh, my God, Craig.

This is insane.
- Exciting, isn't it?

We're gonna have
so many pool parties.

- I know.
- Will you guys come over?

- Of course.
- Yeah.

One of Paige's
biggest concerns

about moving to Charleston
is she doesn't have

a social circle here.
- I homemade lemonade for you.

- Oh my gosh, that's so--
- Just kidding.

I bought it.

But Paige loves Madison,
actually, because they're

both fiery as heck sometimes.

But see, I love fire,
and I love fireworks,

so as long as it doesn't
blow up in my face,

I really enjoy it.

How long are you in town?

Probably till like
Tuesday or Wednesday.

I come down once a week
and stay for like four days.

Kind of like what we do.

Oh yeah, you guys do
long distance basically too.

Yeah, yeah.

The last time I saw him
was at your wedding party.

Craig pretty much had
already booked my planner

as your wedding planner, so...

[laughter]

- It was beautiful.
- We talked about this.

[laughter]

Wow.

- OK, let's--
- OK.

Maybe if I went
to a courthouse.

- No, let's just--
- Please, can we?

- Yes.
- I have so much.

But first, the real tea, OK?

Yeah, I'm ready.

- Whitney...
- OK.

Tells me that Taylor
had sent him a nude photo.

Oh, yeah, I saw it.

Yeah, I forgot
to tell you this.

How would you forget to
tell me something like this?

I don't know.
There's been so much going on.

Wait,
start from the beginning.

- I didn't even see her face.
- I stopped it the--

I just was like,
"What is happening?"

Whatever.
- Wait, what, what, what?

I can't.
[laughing]

Was it like--what was--

- Full front.
- Yeah that's what I--

Dark lighting.

Full frontal,
you gotta be confident.

I don't think
I've ever done that.

- I may have done that.
- Yeah, you have.

I've never done that.

I pick one item,
and we focus on that.

Wow.

Does Austen know that she
sent nudes to Whitney?

- I don't know.
- Yeah, I don't think he knows.

Wait, yeah, what is with her
and all of Shep's friends?

I think she's just really lost.

Like, last night,
she walked into this dinner,

and then Olivia walks in.
- Uh-huh.

She hasn't even
stepped in the door,

and Taylor goes,
"I have to tell you something."

- I have to be honest.
- I made out with Austen.

We did kiss.

It's the lying
over six months.

Yeah, how long ago was that?

You lied to your friend
every single time you saw her.

It is----ed up.
[laughs]

Well, I think the timeline
of it is the most----ed up.

OK, so I asked that, too.

I was like, "When was this?"

And Craig told me
that Austen said,

me and Olivia were not
together, not speaking.

But I thought it happened
after we were all in New York.

- We're not in a relationship.
- Austen, you seem sad.

There's a lot of love here.

I think that he should have
gone right over

to Olivia
and swept her off her feet.

Which means
it happened at that time

when Austen was trying
to win Olivia back.

He basically told me.

Oh, my God, how sneaky.

But the sleepover
that JT was talking about

happened recently.

When you have a sleepover
with your friend's ex,

it is a little bit murky.

Yes, they had been
sleeping together for months.

Mm.

♪

Hello.

- Hey, how are you doing, Aus?
- Long day.

I'm glad you came.

You need a good meal
and a drink.

I do, I do.

Hey, has this has become
your new favorite pullover?

What do you want, hon?

I was thinking like
a glass of white wine.

- OK.
- White wine, yeah. Right here.

Whoa, meat and cheese board
just awaiting my arrival.

This is heaven. Thanks, Dad.
- You bet.

Isn't it nice
that we're so close?

Love it.

About a year ago, my folks
moved from my childhood home

in Charlotte, North Carolina.

It was a very emotional move

because we left behind
so many memories.

Look at that teddy.

- Kyle never let the thing go.
- No.

[soft dramatic music]

How's it going, guys?
Mom?

I never thought retirement
would be this fun.

Are you bored yet?

- No, I'm not bored.
- Really?

- Playing pickleball and--
- I'm having a ball.

How about for you?
How's things going?

Um, I'm just like--

just like exhausted.

I mean, Olivia is just like
angry at me or whatever.

I tried to talk to her,
and she was just like,

I----ing hate you.

Oh, God.

Should I ask why?

Well,----ing, uh--

♪

What happened?

I mean,
basically what happened

Oh, jeez.
Which one do you want?

Tom, the French white.
The French white.

Well, you know, Austen,
obviously, Olivia is hurt.

Is this the one
you're talking about?

Yes.

I've been----ing up
left and right, women.

I know.

I know that I fall
for women hard and fast,

and then I just kind of get to
like a point where it's just--

I know, you pull back.
I don't understand that.

Does this seem
to be a pattern?

[chuckles]
Yes, yes, it does, Dad.

Because of that,
I quite literally

began to see somebody,
a therapist.

- Whoa.
- Really?

That's great.

I quite literally told her,

I'm like actually
kind of broken.

Tell me why I am
the way that I am.

Austen, I'm glad
that you're seeing somebody.

I want to see you
find a soul mate.

And I think
being really good friends

with that person
that you end up with

is really important.

Yes,
y'all are quite literally

each other's best friends.

I mean, what got us--
what got us through Kyle?

Yeah, oh, yeah.

What got us through Kyle
was that we were very stable,

and we really could lean
on each other,

and we were each other's
best friend...

- Oh, yeah.
- And are.

To survive something
like losing a child

and having your marriage
probably go through so much,

I just can't even imagine.

And then, you know, here I am.

I can't even maintain
a friendship

with the women that I date.

You always would say,
"What I know is Olivia

and I will always be friends."

- You said that?
- Oh, gosh, Tom.

He used to say it all the time.

Olivia and I, at our core,

we'll always be friends.

[sighs]

- Coming up...
- What?

OK, Taylor,
deep breath, deep breath.

- What's going on?
- I'm shaking.

- Can we--
- Can we cut? OK.

- Hello?

- Hey, Dad.
- Hey.

Well, crazy day.

So dropped Craig off
at doggy daycare

and went to play golf.

I got a phone call
from daycare, Dad,

and they said
that he had 108 fever.

I was like, "What?"

He was throwing up
and was breathing very hard.

And--and then he--

they took him to the vet.

I'm about to find out.

I got to say, whew.

Look, I have
my golf shoes on.

I do want to cover everything
that we did today.

What I think has happened
is that they have

a smooshed face, right?

So when it gets warm
like today,

they're struggling to breathe.

So he was in
very critical condition,

and we're not
completely out of the woods.

The next few days,
still monitor very closely,

and then we'll talk
about the next steps.

Give me a few minutes.
I'll grab him right now.

All right, sounds good.

Little Craig's
meant everything to me,

and it's very emotional
to think

that he would just
not be on this Earth

because he changed my life.

Get him in there.

He taught me there's something
other than yourself

that you're responsible for,

and that is
such a change for me,

because I was 40
when I got him.

- Does he like me?
- He likes you.

And I hadn't thought
about anyone else, trust me.

I can take that off for now.

Hey, you scare me.

You scare me.

He's been so sweet with us.

Here we are

Welcome.
- Whoo.

Can you believe

Man, it looks good.

- You did great work, Ma.
- Well--

But I was here.
I was here.

Well, you were here.
You were physically present.

Hey, what's going on
with the furniture?

I chose it.

It just needs
to be pulled together.

It's not done yet.

My mother,
where do I even start?

It's killing me
to stand here.

It's killing you
to stand here?

Mm-hmm.

She's a designer,
and so she has been consulting

with me on the décor
and the vibe

of the actual space itself.

Well, let's just get rid
of that for starters.

Where should I? Outside?
I'll take it outside.

I don't care
where you put it.

Let's get it out of here.

But I don't think
it goes in here.

Do you?
What's going on with this?

You know, as a designer,
she's in high demand.

- The pillows are just fine...
- You like the pillows?

For a fishing cabin.

And she's got
a little jab in her,

like a little like--
she wants to spar a lot.

It just needs
to be fluffed up.

Well, I'm about
to throw a huge launch party,

though, finally, after years
of getting this place done.

Well, that's good news.
You gonna fix this first?

Well, that's kind of why
I had you come down.

- Oh.
- But I also love seeing you.

I bought this building.

She didn't want
to come down to help

because she was in Virginia,

and so we did FaceTime,
like, every day.

The wrong finish?

Oh, God,
I just stepped on something.

And now, you know,
it's almost done.

One, two, three, up.

I remember that you made me
do this my entire childhood.

It's fun.

Moving furniture around
and staging?

Oh my God,
it's so much better already.

Yeah, I think you just
loosen it up a little bit

and create some vibe.

I think you're being
a little hard on me right now.

- How?
- You don't like it in here.

Honey,
I don't say I don't like it.

I just think
it needs to be finished.

You've been busy, yes?

Well, not to sound
in any way

like I wish
that life was better--

You know, I have a good life.
I should be happy.

You do have a good life.

But my whole life
was like building a career,

building a business,
and doing an event space,

and now I can't do this
much longer,

if that makes sense.
- You want to tell me more?

As you know,
I'm approaching--

I'm about to turn 38.
- [chuckles]

Yes, I do know that.

And I don't have
a wife or a girlfriend.

Granted, I did have
a first at bat, if you will.

Just I botched that one,
you know?

Well, she was gorgeous
and lovely as a human,

and you were, too,

but you guys
were just children.

I really loved my ex-wife,

but I just don't think people

should get married
when they're 22.

I often wonder
if I had met her at 30,

you know,
would it have been different,

'cause I would have been
more mature?

- Absolutely, you know why?
- Why?

Because to be married,
you have to have

all those other skills
that oftentimes

22-year-old people don't have.

We lasted about
four or five years.

Got divorced,
moved to Charleston,

and it's all worked out now,
but it was a painful--

it was a painful time.

I would like to try it again,

but I want to make sure
the second time around

I get it right.
- Yeah.

I know how hard it is
to find someone,

and I know that
if you're gonna get married,

you do it with someone
that you're not

gonna have
buyer's remorse with,

because I never want to go
through that again, you know?

- Yeah.
- [sighing]

- So step back.
- Yeah.

Step back.
It's not easy.

When it's right,
it's gonna be right

for some
incredibly lucky person.

We'll just take it
one day at a time.

Yeah.

And really, it'll work out
however it works out,

but it's
no reflection on you,

not on your person.
- I appreciate you saying that.

I love you very much,
and I'm just happy you're here.

I love you too.

- Don't make it about you.

Yeah, the thing is,
is that people might be like,

"Well, yeah,
it's a time to be there

for your loved ones."

And it's like,
well, I wasn't aware

that Austen and Olivia
were still loved ones.

Today's just been a day.

Coming up...

I want so badly to be able
to say, like, the right thing.

And this is where
it's hard because

you don't want to hurt her.

That's why I'm here.

I'm gonna get
some blankets out.

[knocking]
[dog barking]

- How are you?
- Yes, how you doing?

Good.
Oh, look at our setup.

Buddy, it's all right.
It's just me.

- I made us a little fort.
- This is so cute.

Thanks, and I put
chicken tenders and fries

in the oven.
I got her some--

Oh, comfort food.

I figured I might make
a margarita.

I don't know.
It depends on how we feel.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So I know we're waiting
on Olivia,

but like, are we having
anybody else here?

I didn't tell Madison.

I don't know if Madison knows.

I haven't personally
said anything to her.

I haven't.

And I just like--
I don't know

if it's my place
to say something.

Yeah, I agree.

So like, I just--
you know, I didn't invite her.

I agree.

And then I haven't spoken
to Taylor since,

like what, last week?

She hasn't picked up
any of my calls.

- That's so weird.
- She hasn't--

Did she have an awkward
conversation with you?

Is there anything
that you can possibly--

Her brain might just
be all over the place.

There's just so many things.

But at the same time, I just
don't think that her energy

would be calming.
- Yeah.

I don't know, like,
I don't want her to bring up

some sh-- about, like, Austen.

Like, does Olivia know
that they like--

you know.
I don't even want to say it.

- What?
- They kissed.

Does Olivia know that?
- I don't know.

I didn't know that.

- Oh, you didn't know that?
- No.

Oh, sh--.
[laughs]

I thought you knew.

[phone rumbling]

Well, answer.

Hello.

- Hi, V.
- Hi.

Yeah.

Yeah,
and she can call me back.

OK, so, like,
here's where I stand.

I think that your emotions
and feelings

are too all over the place.

So I don't think
it's a good idea

for you to come over today.

Like, she needs to be able
to have a safe space right now

where she can just like--

Taylor, you know
I've known her parents

for like ages, right?

So that's hurtful to me,

but you are
incredibly dear to her,

so just get in your car
and come here.

OK, perfect.

We'll see you in a little bit.

OK, all right, bye.

So, like, that's what I mean.

The heart means well,
but the brain

is all over the place.

I'm getting offended,

which I shouldn't.
- Yeah, and like,

don't say
like her real friends.

Baby, what part
of that category

do you fit in right now?

I don't think you belong there.
Like--

You know when somebody
gives you second-hand anxiety?

That's what I don't want
for Olivia right now.

I'm gonna go check
on the chicken nuggets.

[chuckles]

[mellow music]

[knocking]
- Hello.

Hi, oh, what's up?
How are you?

- Good.
- Good to see you.

Good to see you, too.

Nice little setup
we got in here.

Thanks,
just trying to make it cozy.

It is very cozy.

Hi, sweet girl.

I got you gluten-free
chicken nuggets

that I keep eating.
- You did not.

Oh, my gosh.
- And rice cakes.

This is so sweet.

I haven't had
gluten-free chicken nuggets

I don't think ever.
- Really?

- Yeah.
- That's so funny.

So what--are your parents
gonna stay for a while?

Or do you think they're just
gonna hop back on a flight?

I don't know.

My dad has just like
not stopped working

since he's gotten here.

He's just stayed on calls,
whereas my mom,

she's like, "I just don't
want to leave here."

It's like, I'm just gonna
feel further away from him."

Yeah.

I haven't been able--

I have nowhere to go in his--
[crying]

I haven't been able
to like go in his room,

whereas my mom
just wants to stay in it.

So it's just like,
we're all just on different--

like really different...
- I'll grab some tissues.

Pages.

He's just so, like, thoughtful
and sweet and kind.

That's what everyone's
been saying about him.

Olivia, he knows everything
right now, you know?

Everyone knows me
as your sister.

Like, everywhere I go,
they're like,

"Oh, you're Conner's sister."

I don't think I can throw
as big of parties as you did.

I don't know as many people.
[laughing]

Oh, no, yikes.

All right, we'll talk
when you get back.

Yeah, I'll see you soon.
I love you.

Bye.

The last things
he said to me was like,

"You're doing everything right.

You're exactly
where you're supposed to be."

And I hope I'm--

you know, I hope you can look
at me and be proud of me

like I'm proud of you.

[sobbing]

[knocking]

- Hello.
- Hi.

Hi.

Oh my goodness,
you have a blue tail.

Yeah.

Oh my God,
I didn't even notice that.

- Hello.
- Hello.

- Oh, the comfort foods.
- I know.

All the good gluten-free stuff.

Oh, good.
How are you doing?

It's good to see you.

- Yeah, you good?
- Yes.

You look good.

I still have questions
with Taylor.

- Hi.
- Hello.

My feelings
are still very hurt,

but you don't really think
about who you want around

during something like this.

Oh, so I'm gonna go
make the margaritas.

- Yeah.
- I'll be right back.

You just appreciate
the people that are there.

And at the end of the day,

I really care
about our friendship,

and I want to move forward.

OK, I don't know how strong
they are, so be careful.

Oh, thank you.

Yeah, for Shep to say,
I'm gonna get out of the house

and they can have it.

Yeah, that was such
a clutch thing to offer.

That was extremely nice
of him.

And then Craig
gave a casserole,

and Austen brought
like a really, really

sweet comfort bag
with like a really sweet note,

and it was just so funny
the way he did it.

He, like, texted me.

He was like, "Hey, I'm gonna
stop and bring something by."

And I was just busy.
Didn't respond.

And then he was like, "Hey,
I'm in the church parking lot."

Across the street,
there's a church.

And it's like he was,
like, inching closer

and closer, like, "Hey, I'm
at the bottom of the stairs,

and I'm gonna
leave this bag."

Finally, I was like, thank you.

And it was, like,
really, really sweet.

Everyone stepped up
in such a way

that meant so much,
and having Austen step up

is comforting.
I'm glad I got to see him.

He's just been really kind
and thoughtful with his words.

I mean, it's hard to stay mad
at someone

who has experienced
something similar.

Yeah, it just sucks
that we have that in common.

But it's like a--

you know, it's a common ground, nonetheless.

It's nice to know
that there are so many people

who can understand you

so you're not alone at all.

Well,
I'm really, really, really

appreciative of you all.

♪

[upbeat music]

- Hi.
- Hi, Austen.

You ready?
- Yeah, I am.

Good to see you again.

Yeah.

I mean, thank you again for
accommodating me on Wednesday.

Yeah.

The week
hasn't been about me,

but it's obviously
drumming up feelings.

Right.

I mean, since I saw you,
I got the chance to see Olivia.

- OK.
- I brought her food.

She was, like,
waiting on the porch.

And, like, we just kind of,
like, met each other, you know?

- Yeah.
- We just, like, embraced.

It was like a
transcendent moment, you know?

There is a lot
of emotion coming up

from you from your early-on
loss of your sister.

I mean, I want so badly

to be able to say,
like, the right thing.

And this is where
it's hard because

you do have this messy history,

and I know
that makes you nervous

because you don't want
to hurt her.

That's why I'm here.

[soft dramatic music]

I've been talking
to my parents a lot,

and I've never really thought
about it before.

I've probably met
two or three girls

that could have been,
you know, the real deal.

But there's something
that happens

for you
that makes you pull back

and get afraid
of the closeness.

I don't know why
I get checked out.

Most people get
very afraid of vulnerability.

Once the relationship
gets to a certain level,

it gets scary,
because then that person

really sees who you are.

And you don't want
to lose somebody

once you both really see
who each other is.

It's very scary
because you know that pain

from when you were eight.

♪

But then I think
it also scares you

when it comes to that
you're my person type thing.

Are we really
gonna get married,

and have kids, and then
potentially lose a child?

I mean, that's what
real life can be.

Can I go through
that with somebody?

I mean, that's the question
that I ask myself.

And that's what we're
continuing to work on,

is trying to sort that through
so that you don't cause hurt.

And--
- I try not to.

But when I try to, like,
massage a situation

to not hurt someone...

Right, yes,
I think that's true, yeah.

It----ing backfires.

I mean, I'm telling you,
I've gotten in my own way...

- Mm-hmm.
- Just so many times.

Yeah.

Things clearly just got
so mixed up with Olivia.

Yeah.

And I wish that I had
the right thing to say.

Right now, I think
it's more important

to just be present
for Olivia as friends,

as much as she allows that.

I mean, I think that's
gonna be really good

and healing for both of you.

We've been texting since,
which is wonderful.

I mean, in a way, I think
she's comforted by the fact

that you get it.

Maybe that's
my purpose in all this,

is to show her
what time can do,

how to move on.
- Yeah, how to move forward.

Move forward.
There's no moving on.

You can give her some hope

that it won't always
feel this bad.

Well, at this point,
I feel like

the only way to screw it up
is by not being there.

Yeah.

Next time on
"Southern Charm"...

Oh, yeah, like a scabbard.

- Jesus--
- Hey.

Whoa.

What the [BLEEP]
are you guys doing?

- Sword fighting.
- Oh, classic.

You need to figure out

what the next move
with Olivia is

and how you want
your relationship to look.

I haven't really had
the chance to talk to her

other than the fact
that I lied to her.

I'm trying to mend Taylor
and I's friendship.

Yeah, you seem to want
to put it back together.

I do,
but she's making it hard.

Taylor's somebody who chooses
to be a Bible beater,

but then you turn around,

and you're sending nudes
to Whitney.

Yes, there was a picture

that you
could not see anything.

I saw your tits and vagina.

Awkward.

What you portray to be
is----ing phony and fake.
