- Party!
- Whoo!

When you work at the hottest
club on King Street,

you have to be selective
of who you let in.

You're definitely gonna
want to be inside.

That's where the action is.

Leva doesn't just hire
people who check the boxes.

She expects magic.

We got to take it
to another level.

And we are the lucky few

that get to bring the magic
night after night.

I love working here.

I'm Queen Republic.
Eat, breathe, sleep Republic.

[clicks tongue, chuckles]

Hello. Hello.

But to work for Leva,
loyalty is nonnegotiable.

So when Mikel was caught
promoting another club,

he returned to Republic
to earn his way back in.

I want to come back
and show you guys

that I can sell
thousands of dollars,

so I'm back here at Republic.

That's not happening
anytime soon.

You're suspended.

We work hard at Republic.
We play hard at Republic.

So when you lose your job
at Republic, you lose both.

Loyalty is important
to me as well,

but despite his cheating past,

I decided to give my ex
another chance.

Leaving Joe Bradley
all up in his feels.

For like a second there,
I thought I had, like,

glimmer of something
between me and Maddi, you know.

We have a problem.

And when Grace Lilly's
flakiness

affected my hosting...

You're not at work.

- I come up here sometimes--
- I am at work.

I've been to Martini Mondays,
and you haven't been here.

...she left me with no choice
but to tell Leva.

- Of course. Bye. Thank you.
- Bye. Bye-bye.

Like, why did you, like,
tell Leva that I wasn't there?

I told you I have this party.
I'm walking it up.

It's just so hard for me
to make people happy.

It's not fair.

♪ I know a place
where we can go♪

♪ Oh, oh♪

♪ Are you comin' out tonight?♪

♪

Okay, cutting limes isn't,
like, this complicated science.

- You've got to clock in.
- How are you?

I was gonna do the sodas last.

I was gonna do
all these pineapples

because I don't want it
to go flat.

We open in what?
Inside of an hour?

Yeah.

♪

- Hi.
- Happy Cinco de Mayo.

- Thank you.
- How was your day?

- It was good.
- Good.

Yeah. Anything booked tonight?

Yeah, we do have
a few pre-bookings tonight.

Okay. Really quick,

Mikel is doing a shadowing
barback shift tonight.

Is he training behind the bar
or for VIP or both?

He's just training to barback.

- Okay.
- So he's doing true grunt work.

So if we need something,
don't be afraid to ask him?

No. He's earning
his place back.

I feel like
he has a lot to prove.

So after Mikel was suspended,
he decided to reach out.

Would you like to be
back at Republic?

- I do. I miss the environment.
- Ask Leva for a shift.

"Hey, Leva."

- And I'm gonna hit send.
- [phone beeps]

- Thank you. Oh sh--!
- [phone chimes]

"Yes, you can pick up a shift."

- Wait. What?
- "I think barbacking will be

a great place
for you to come back."

I wanted to give him
a second chance,

and barbacking is
one of the toughest jobs.

I want all of you
to always know

that you're not too good
to do a job.

I go in the bathroom,
I wipe the bathroom down,

and some girl's like,
"Oh, my God, do you work here?"

I'm like, "Yes, I work here.
Of course I work here.

Yes."

Hey, how are you?
How are you feeling?

So, you don't have a uniform?

I've never had to dress
for this.

I've only dressed myself, so...

We definitely have
T-shirts in the back.

We can figure something out.

Mikel, have you ever barbacked
anywhere before,

- or is this day one?
- This is day one.

So, I got
suspended for allegedly

promoting at another club.
[laughing]

The worst part about it

was I felt I let
Lamar and Leva down.

Right now, Leva and Lamar
are the most prominent

current figures in my life.

I want to show Leva and Lamar

their investment has not gone
to sh-- in shambles.

So if this is what it takes, well,

[bleep] it, here we go.

All right, so, Mikel,
we got to get you to work.

- Yeah.
- [laughter] Sh--.

I'm so excited.

I got to go
set up for all the tables.

Thank you so much.
Let me strip down.

He wants to work
for the company,

but she's putting him in at
the bottom of the totem pole.

- Yeah, which he should be.
- Yeah.

Before you do the ice, will you
actually put those down

and just go make sure that all
the bathrooms are clean

and then wash your hands
and come back up.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

There's only one glove.

♪

I'll wrap this bad boy up.

- Mikel, we have gloves.
- That looks ridiculous.

There is 1,000% more gloves.

No, there weren't more gloves.

- What is this?
- I made my own gloves.

Don't make me regret this.

This looks fine.

- Flush.
- [toilet flushes]

Oh, this is easy.
I can do this all night.

I call it
the slap the ho method.

So, did you hear him scooping?

- Snap, crackle, and pop, baby.
- Yeah.

You guys all look great.
Let's sell out.

High five.

Good vibes.
I love the bucket hat.

Hey. First night. Come on.

Don't-- No--
No talking to guests.

You gotta help finish
setting up the bank app.

It's not even finished. Huh?

No, it's not.
There's not juices at three.

Can you make sure, like,
the bar's wiped down and stuff

- when people leave?
- Yeah.

Mikel is sweating.

You're supposed to be overwhelmed,

you're supposed to be
working hard,

but TJ's really enjoying
this moment too much.

She helped me for
the New Year's Eve table, Mom.

Oh, my God, yes!

[laughs]

What would you guys
like to drink?

We have champagne
all on this side,

and we have packages here.

You have your own
private section.

Pretty cool and it's gonna
get a lot more packed.

You're gonna have,
like, your own room.

Maddi is my work wife
and my partner in prime.

Our dynamic is amazing at work.

She, you know,
has something about her.

She's stunning.
She's beautiful.

Uh-huh.

We just click.

[horn honking]

I shouldn't go inside.

I belong to the streets.

Yeah, I don't know.

I feel like
I just want to slowly

get you back with everyone,
kind of.

Like, on good terms and stuff.

With Trevor, I don't know
where it's gonna go.

With the people I like too,
I think I'm good.

When Trevor cheated on me,
we worked together.

Like, not only did Trevor
hurt me,

he hurt 52 other employees
at Republic Garden Lounge,

'cause they all were emo--
I'm their leader.

Like, people were
burning cigarettes on him.

His motorcycle was pushed over.

People were----ing brutal.

I came back to Republic
like two or three weeks ago,

and I had four different
model girls

come up to me and be like,
"I will kill you."

I have to see it through.
I'm doing this for myself.

I feel like it's different.
I don't know.

I'm a good boss
because I'm a good boss,

not because of who I date,

and I hope who I date
doesn't change that.

I'm sweaty. All right.

I'll see you later.

- Three tables left.
- Yeah.

Normally I would have commented

on Trevor
pulling up over there.

I saw you talk to him,
but I mean,

I'm just gonna give you space
to think about it and talk.

Yeah. I mean, you know
it's not normal

for him to, like, show up here,
you know.

When you call someone
your best friend,

it's really hard
not to tell them how you feel.

There's a lot more
that I want to tell Maddi.

You know, like "Once a cheater,
always a cheater."

I'm fig-- I'm figuring it out.
I'm...

- You're okay out here?
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

- Are you sure?
- I got it.

- ...open or close it out?
- Uh, let's keep it open.

Mikel, I need some grapefruit.

Mikel.

- Two bottles of triple sec?
- Yeah.

ing spilled on me.

Open or closed?

We have a $10 minimum
on credit cards.

It's the same thing, though.

I'm ready to go home.

I really don't know
what's going on right now,

and I'm trying to do it.
I'm really trying--

I'm really trying to,
like, understand it.

You're learning
even though you've been here.

Yeah, it's frustrating.
It's frustrating as hell, bro.

Tonight is really hard.

I got to get out of this.
Like, put me back in the front.

I'm not a water boy.
I'm the captain of the team.

So why is
the captain in the back?

So, yeah.

[groans]

Beautiful, strong, powerful,

successful,
glowing, radiant goddess.

[knock at door]

Oh, Grace, come on in.

- Hi.
- How are you?

- How's it going?

- Good.
- Exhausted.

- Yeah? Same here.
- Oh, good.

- It's okay.
- Why? Why are you exhausted?

I just feel like I've had
the longest week ever, yeah.

- We just moved. Um...
- It's so cute.

Thanks. We just literally--

Well, the queen
should sit here, obviously.

It's a pretty big desk.

We have our house, but we also
have a condo on King Street.

Because it's like a hop
and a skip from all the spaces.

If the staff ever thinks
they're getting

away with something, I can be
at Republic in 60 seconds.

Maddi had told me
she had a table coming down,

and then I find out

that she got there
but you weren't there.

Hey, Maddi.

Yeah, I was calling
to tell you

I brought some friends
up to Bourbon N' Bubbles.

Yeah?

Grace-- She was, like,
a good point of communication,

but as soon as I got out
there, she wasn't there.

Wait, she wasn't
at the property?

No.

You left and made a muck of it.

Do you have an explanation?

I just, like,
really was not feeling good.

Like, I've been
having a migraine.

My sinuses-- My allergies,

like, the pollen--
Malnutrition, dehydrated--

I felt like I wasn't
taking care of--

Cinco de Mayo and then bourbon,
Martini Monday with Bradley.

But that's life.

I know. I know.

I can't have an excuse like
that to give you where it's--

For three shifts a week? No.

Right now, the way you look
to me, Grace, is checked out.

I apologize, and I'm gonna
make it right, and I'm gonna

prove to you why
I'm deserving of this position.

'Cause I want to come back
to Republic.

How do you feel
about bringing me back

for, like, a night or so?

I can't put you at Republic

if you're not excelling
at what I'm giving you.

I know.

I'm definitely upset
with Maddi.

She knows that I'm trying
to get back to Republic.

Why did you, like, tell Leva
that I wasn't there?

You know, I wish
you would have told me like,

"Hey, you need
to come back now."

I just want to know when I
walk people down there

that you're following through.

I just feel like-- [sniffles]

It's just so hard for me
to make people happy.

It's not fair.

She doesn't need
to snitch on me to Leva.

I see something in you.

I truly think
you have magic in sales

- if you are present.
- Right.

Racehorses can win you
a lot of money,

but they're
so high maintenance.

- You know how to close.
- Mmm.

So lean into that.

Grace is sort of like
my racehorse.

If it was up to Lamar,

she would have been fired
years ago,

but I'm like,
"Listen, this one'll win.

This one's gonna win for us."

No one's G. Lilly, okay?
G. Lilly can sell.

I'm gonna show you
who G. Lilly is.

I know that, and you need
to tell yourself that.

I just--
I want to see the actions.

I don't want to be
sticking my neck out.

I don't have any more neck
to stick out for you.

I'm about to go to dinner
to meet my church brother

with my nails like this, so
we'll see how this sh-- goes.

I'm not out in the church
at all.

- Are you scared?
- Yeah.

♪

I got the card in already.

There you go.

Number one question
people ask is always,

what's the difference
between inside and outside?

Inside is a dance-all-night
nightclub environment,

while outside
is a vibrant day party.

[chuckles]

I'm starving.

You're-- I'm starving.

I'm also hung over.

So, I'm, like, hungry,

but I don't know if my stomach
is, like, ready.

My blood is different,
so I'm never hung over.

- Oh, you're different?
- Yeah, I'm built differently.

Will's like a brother to me.

Me and Will have been friends
since College of Charleston,

and we started
working together at Republic.

I can't get away from the guy.

When we're not working
together at Republic,

we're drinking together
at Republic.

I love it.

- What's up, TJ.
- Mornin'.

I'm gonna do
a spicy margarita.

What you want?

Corona?

Uh, I was up till
like 6:00 a.m.--

- Yeah, it's loud in there.
- It's kinda loud out here.

- Do you wanna go inside?
- Yeah, let's go inside.

Can you cover me really quick?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

- How was--
- I was off

for some reason yesterday,
and then I came in here

to say hi to Emmy,
and then I saw Mia leaving.

We went to Bourbon N' Bubbles
and got martinis.

Grace Lilly didn't know
what sections were open

or what tables were open
or what seats were open--

What numbers the tables were.

She was like,
"Oh, I work here?"

I'm like, "Can I get a bottle

and can we sit somewhere?
There's six of us."

She's like, "How about
we both go in there and look?"

I'm like, "Well, I could have
just----ing done that myself."

Grace Lilly should get off
of Instagram and actually work.

[camera shutter clicks]

Cute. Love it.

We're all getting
our asses kicked here.

We don't have time
to post on social media.

This isn't
a temporary thing for me.

The restaurant industry
in Charleston

is my career,
and I take this very seriously.

I feel like people
like Grace and Mikel

don't take it as seriously.

It makes me feel
like my career is a joke.

They're not doing their job.
They're [bleep].

They're acting like
they're doing their job.

For somebody
who's so Zodiac driven

and so ethereal
as she says she is,

I'm expecting, like,
some sort of, like,

guru-style transformation
when I talk to her.

It's just about, like,
how many likes I got yesterday.

She likes her own pictures
on Instagram.

I'm like,
"Girl, we know that now."

Love it. Love it. So hot.

G. Lilly vibes.
It's wavy, baby.

[laughs]

Someone tell her we can see it.

Yeah.

♪

Hello.

You're gonna go
in the VIP room back here.

- Oh. Ooh.
- [laughs]

- You want to sit here?
- I'll sit right here.

I think this is my second time
getting this.

Uh, a mani-pedi?
Your second time ever?

This is my second time.

I'm very ticklish.

[laughing] There you go.
There you go.

[laughing]

Okay, wait a minute.
Wait a minute.

He'll get used to it.

Like, I want to know.

All the stress I have
at this damn job.

It's like an orgasm. Like,
you can't talk through it.

- You want a tranquilizer?
- Okay, okay, okay, okay.

- Do you want polish?
- All black nails.

Wait, that's kind of fire.
That's punk. I like it.

I'm buying it.

My mom would kill me,
but it's fine. [laughing]

Well, I'm about to go to the
dinner, meet my brother Anthony

with my nails like this, so
we'll see how this sh-- goes.

Feel like that's the only
reason why you were, like,

weird about getting
your nails painted is, like--

Yeah, I mean, I-- [chuckles]

I'm not like this--
I'm slowly exploring myself.

Yeah, well, who----ing cares?

That's easier said than done.

Anthony's in my church family.
He's my brother.

Like, he knows
way more about me

than my actual
blood brothers do.

But this is a part of my life

he does not have any idea about.

I'm not out
in the church at all,

but I think a part of me

still struggles
with being that free.

I didn't know
your brother didn't know.

No-- Half my family
doesn't know.

Majority of my, like,
church friends, family,

everyone across
that side of the bridge,

has no----ing idea.

My mom doesn't even know
that you guys call me Mikel.

- No way.
- Yeah.

Imagine living two lives
but within one body.

My family has no idea
that I like men.

My mom's a pastor.
My dad's a pastor.

If I were to tell them,
"Hey, I'm gay,"

I feel like that could be
the one thing

to really end our relationship.

Juggling between
two different people.

So Mikel can be
the one that dresses up

very flamboyant,
very out there,

but Michael can be the one
that's more reserved.

Michael in the church
will be Mikel on King Street.

I feel like a hypocrite just so
that I can still live these two

different lives without
there being consequences.

It's a weird conversation
I have to have.

I've dealt with rejection
in my life.

I've dealt
with losing people already,

which is the scarier part
about it, yeah.

If they write you off
because of that,

then they're not----ing
worth your time anyway.

I think you will have a weight
lifted off your shoulder

where you feel like
you don't have to be

- like Hannah Montana anymore.
- [chuckles]

Like, with the wig.

Are you scared?

Yeah, because I don't know

what the [bleep]
is gonna happen.

You literally came in here
at a family establishment

and you were in here
- ing twerking.

Like, how much attention
do you----ing need?

Do I walk into a room
and say, "Oh, my God,

look at me, look at me,
I'm the best thing ever"?

Yes.

[knocking on door]

[gasps] Hey!

- Hello! How are you?
- What's up?

- Hey, beautiful. How are you?
- So good to see you.

- It's good to see you too.
- Welcome.

- You have a beautiful home.
- Thank you.

Thanks for driving
all the way out here.

I know I live pretty damn far.

It was like
a 45-minute drive.

- I know.
- I first met Grace

when I started working
at Republic.

I need to pump the glute.
Let's go.

She's kind of like
a life-of-the-party girl,

like, super fun.

Be the first one
on a table dancing.

♪ Mm, mm, mm♪ [chuckles]

She's definitely
an acquired taste.

[laughs]

Did you have, like,
a fitness journey or epiphany?

I did.
I really wanted to create

more of a routine for myself

'cause that makes me feel good.

Let's work out.

- You ready?
- Getting ready. Yeah.

Let me see your squat form.

Toes out. Good.

Good. Good. That's good.

- Twerking it.
- Twerk it out.

Got to get the glute medius.

All right,
let's get some lunges in too.

Take a step forward.

A forward lunge
and then a back lunge.

Want to do one more.

One more.

If the legs aren't shakin'...

[chuckles]

- So do like eight of these?
- Yes.

Oh, my God, I'm sweating.

I'm gonna take a little bit
of a break. You know?

- Get some water.
- Yeah. Thank you.

Yeah, of course.

So I'm gonna put forth

some more effort
at Bourbon N' Bubbles

'cause Leva
was pretty adamant about that.

Yeah.

You've always been really,
like, sweet to me,

and out of everyone,
you've really been the nicest.

But I love everyone
we work with now. Like, I do.

- But there's drama.

- As always.
- Mm-hmm.

- TJ's hard to get along with.
- Yeah. Mm-hmm.

You know, Will pretty much
told me that he was, like,

talking about my Instagram
and saying that I was a slut

and I was a sugar baby and...

That doesn't
even look like her.

Each different picture,
she edits them all differently.

That's classy,
a bra with a blazer.

- She's about to fart.
- [laughter]

You know, I'm not
pumping my pussy.

Like, no, I'm popping my booty,
like, on the dance floor.

Yeah. I mean, I'm not
complaining. That's fine.

I mean...

No one knows
what my pussy looks like

except for the list of guys

I've hooked up with
in my phone.

This is my list.

[laughs]

Oh, yeah, I remember him.
Mm-hmm.

Yeah, I remember that one.
That was like a two pump.

That one was good.

That was all right. [laughs]

Pretty much everyone
had a beard.

Why am I getting chewed out
because of what I post?

I'm gonna do me. Like, I'm
in my prime right now.

- Like, I'm a ripe mango.
- Hell, yeah.

♪

[phone ringing through]

- Hey.
- Oh, my gosh.

I'm freaking the [bleep] out
right now.

Are you there waiting for him?

I'm there waiting for him,
but he hasn't shown up yet,

and I can still run away.

Maddi, what am I doing?
I'm not ready for this.

This is not the easiest thing,
but--

It really isn't,
and I really don't--

I think I'm much more afraid
of the reaction

about how things are gonna go
more than anything else.

I am terrified
I could lose someone

that means so dear to me.

I mean, this is a guy
that, you know,

I have told everything to,
I can tell everything to,

and the one thing
I just haven't told him,

which is about my sexuality.

I'm literally, like, jittery.
I can't even keep still. Like...

I'm not ready for this.
I'm not ready for this at all.

Luckily, I'm working too,
so...

- Yeah.
- ...you won't be alone.

I'll see you in, like,
literally not that long.

Okay. All right,
I will call you back.

All right, call me after.
Love you.

- Hi.
- Hi. How are you?

- Good. How are you?
- Good.

I don't ever drink tequila,

but gonna put in a margarita.

I need, like,
a very, very strong drink.

Like, a double, like--
Throw a floater shot on there.

Yeah. Thank you so much.

I'm gonna need every single
ounce of alcohol I can get--

[chuckles]

[exclaims]

- What's up, bro?
- Oh, my----ing

[laughs]

- You doing good?
- Yeah.

- How are you?
- Good, man. Doing good.

I ordered a drink.

I know you're a shot person,
but I ordered a margarita.

I need a----ing drink
right now.

Extra strong, extra tall.
We love it.

Do you want something?

Can I just start off, like,
a pineapple and rum?

Oh, my Lord.

Oh, God. I have to work
literally in...

What are you doing? You just...

- You know what a barback is?
- Nah.

You know the people who are
always wearing all black

and just carrying trash around?

- Oh, those people.
- That means chopping up

limes and lemons and then...

Might as well. Yeah, yeah.

How's your mom doing?

She's good.
She's done with school.

Me and your mom talk more
than me and you talk.

Hell, yeah.

- [laughs]
- I didn't eat.

I went to the nail thing.
I didn't eat at all

- and stuff like that, but--
- Yeah.

So, you went to a nail thing
and then what?

You're just like, "Oh, I want
to get my nails done"?

They were like,
"You should do a little color,

something edgy,"
but I was like,

"My----ing dad
would beat my ass

if he sees this sh--
on me right now."

But you know this is very L.A.

Yeah, very L.A., yeah.

Thank you.

That margarita
went down so nicely.

[laughs] Do we need more?

[laughs]

Yes. You're not even...

[laughs]

But-- Man, that's watery.
Damn, man.

It's been
an interesting experience.

After getting suspended,

being back
has been interesting.

I feel like I don't really
hide my problems per se.

We all have secrets
and stuff like that,

but one of the things
I've been trying to figure out,

which I thought
I had figured it out...

Like, I like men. I also
like women the same exact time.

You know? And it's weird.

Like, I always wanted
to tell you all that.

No, man, I know. I know.

I never expected it
because I just saw you

as, like, my best friend,
like, my friend.

I know, yeah. It's tough.

Yeah, but you're
also the first person

I've told this to
from the church.

My biggest fear is, like,

how is everybody
gonna process it?

I can't really speak
for anybody else,

but at least for me and my mom,

we're always here, man.
We're family.

You're not just my friend
no more. We're family now.

It's the same thing
with my mom and everyone.

So, obviously,
we have nothing but love.

[laughs]

I definitely appreciate

just, like, the love,
the genuine sense of, like,

you know what, this is you,

I love you and I'm
here for you type of thing.

And, like, it feels--
I mean, it makes it feel--

makes me feel more confident
about talking

to other people
that we both know about it.

I feel like a weight
is just sliding.

Yeah.

- I love you, man.
- Yeah, man, for sure.

It feels like a huge rock,

this huge weight, came off me,
and I feel very free.

Oh, gosh, I appreciate you.

One of my best friends
and my brother

still loves me
despite who I love.

Yeah, man.

All right, let's go. I need
you to take me to work.

Okay.

Hello, my darling.
Look what I brought for you.

You have red wine?
I have white wine.

Oh, then perfect.
Look at us. Okay, I was--

Let me put down
my diaper work bag.

- It's fine.
- Look at my apartment.

- I'm literally like--
- No, it looks perfect.

My TV broke, I have it over
there. It's whatever.

Um, I was taking out the dishes
just now.

What a treat!

Me and Mia, she's one of
my best friends. I love her.

Her and Will
went to college together,

so they've known each other
for over seven years.

I got the wine.
Very graceful as always.

She was kind of
this younger girl

that, like, he looked after
and made sure was okay.

I am planning
a little get-together

for all of us tomorrow.

- Place called the Fun Park.
- [gasps]

- I've always wanted to go.
- It's, um...

- So there's a picture of me...
- What is that?

...when I was a kid
doing bumper cars.

- Are you ready for this?
- Let me see.

You look like
you're out for blood.

Very scary picture.

Okay, I'm wearing my seat belt.

Who should we invite?

I'm gonna shoot a text.

If this is gonna be like
a work event where we invite

only our work friends,
what's going on with Trevor?

So I didn't really know
that they were rekindling this.

I told Trevor
I would cut off his dick

and make him eat it
if he hurt her.

And I would help you sauté it
in butter and garlic.

Yeah. But is there anything
going on with you right now?

I don't even know
what kind of guys I like.

You want a confident,
attractive man,

a leader, kind of, that, like,
goes for it, you know?

I like men that are
obsessed with me. That's hot.

Like, if he's just a weirdo,
like, a creep, no.

Yeah, I think it's just--
For me right now,

I'm maybe gonna move
into a different path

of, like, maybe, like, the guy
having a titch of ugly.

Like a little Pete Davidson
kind of situation.

I know what
you're talking about, yeah.

You know what I'm saying?
Hot but like...

Hot but, like, you don't...

Yeah. Oh, wow. So hard for you,

Ms. I Wake Up Next to
Mr. New York City Male Model,

Mr. New York City
Marathon Runner.

He always looks good. I'm like,
"Well, [bleep] you." Like...

I love Will.
You know I love Will.

I love both of you together.

Love that it worked out.

He's, like,
madly in love with you.

There's past problems,
but, you know,

Will and I
have put in the work, and...

I'm not gonna discredit that
you didn't put in any work,

but man's put in some work.

- Oh, Will had to.
- Man's worked.

- Man's worked. Okay?
- I mean, Will--

When I left Will,
it was because I wanted more

and I didn't think
he wanted the same.

I broke up with Will
back in September of 2021.

Will pursued me at full speed.

I never expected
will to come back with,

like, love letter,
you know, diamond earrings.

I know.

Will was showing up
at my place of work,

dropping off food,
sleeping on my futon.

He was pursuing me as hard
as anyone's ever pursued me,

and it worked.

I met this guy on
social media, and I was like,

"Oh, you are so beautiful."
I said, "Where are you from?"

He goes, "Hawaii." I said,
"[bleep] me." Like, damn.

- What's his work?
- He goes, "Oh, I work online."

Said, "Oh, like tech or..."
He goes, "Mm, not really."

- Said, "Okay."
- What does he do?

- He makes OnlyFans videos.
- Did you subscribe?

Come on.

He told me that he has
over 7,000 subscribers.

He's just living in Hawaii,

jumping off cliffs
and jerking off.

So I think he's doing
pretty well for himself.

So I've subscribed the $11
for the premium content.

- The premium!
- Yes.

And premium is premium, okay?

You get to, like, request sh--.

And I was asking him, "What's
the weirdest request you get?"

And he was like, "Some girl
wanted me to [bleep] a cake."

- What?
- Mm-hmm.

- I think he did it.
- [bleep]

[laughter]

I love you.

Hi, ladies.

The most interesting people,
the best customers,

clientele.

All right, we'll bring out
mixers for you guys,

Have fun tonight. Whoo!

At my day job.

I'm a financial analyst
for a biotech firm.

I picked up a job at Republic,

which is like one of the most
social things you could do

because people at my job,
I go into work and I say,

"Hey, guys,
how was your weekend?"

Like, "I went on a boat
and I made out with somebody,"

and you know,
the woman next to me

in the kitchen, like, heating
up a----ing chimichanga

is like, "My cat threw up."

I'm like, "What?"

I have nothing in common
with this woman.

They're gonna get two tables
or finish with two bottles

and then you're just gonna go
get the other two bottles.

Okay, great, my table needs
a bottle of booze.

Okay, yeah.

- Mikel.
- Hi, sexy.

How are you?

- Doing good?
- How was it?

It was----ing phenomenal.
It was so easy.

- Do you feel, like, relieved?
- I feel very, like--

I feel very skinny.

- Phew!
- I know! It's----ing huge,

you know?

I came out
to my best friend brother,

and no one's gonna ruin
my----ing sunshine.

- What do we do? Ooh!
- Ooh!

[laughs]

I may yack myself.

Get it, like--
I just need it clean.

- [groans]
- You got it. You got it.

Then we get, like, a broom.

And just sweep it up.

Teamwork makes the dream work.

Whoo!

Teamwork makes
the mother----ing dream work.

- Hi, guys.
- You okay?

Yeah.

How are you?

I got my first sale
of the night again tonight.

Wow! Look at you!

She's getting it.
She's getting it.

I feel like Joe Bradley.
I should start waxing my chest.

Thank you. Yes.

I love it. Mikel, look at you.

I heard you're doing good, bud.

I mean,
I cleaned up some vomit,

but I had a great day today,

so vomit
really can't ruin my parade.

- You seem really happy.
- I am happy.

So I am going to not complain
about doing this job anymore.

Yes. Just come in
with a happy face

because I don't want drama
in here.

I want everyone to, like,
respect you

and know that I didn't
just put you up front.

You earned it.
You earned your stripes,

and that's why I'm like,
"Trust the journey."

I will.

Oh, look who it is.

Oh, my God.
Maddi brought Trevor.

He's just like a stereotypical

Never thought
I'd be jealous of a girl

Oh, look who it is.

Oh, my God.
Maddi brought Trevor.

Really?

Wait, that is him.
Oh, my God. Trevor's here.

What's up, Trevor?
Pleasant surprise.

When Republic people invite
a bunch of Republic people,

usually just
keep it in the family.

- Joe-Joe.
- What's up, Ryan?

You don't see me
going and crashing

Bike Taxi's happy hour.

This guy is unbelievable.

I'm not gonna mom you.
I'm not gonna mom you.

- Joe!
- Yeah?

You got to move.

Formula 1 in Charleston.

Whoo!

Whoo!

Let's go!

I'm the last one.

Bye-bye.

[chuckles]

Drivers Ed!

[overlapping conversation]

[chuckles]

[laughs]

Aah!

Oh, my God.
I'm pretty embarrassed.

Yeah!

Number one!

Especially when Grace Lilly
passed me. [chuckles]

Guys, had such a fun time.

We're doing bumper cars? Okay.

And I'm getting my own
this time, TJ.

- Yeah, no.
- [laughs]

- You don't want to share?
- I have whiplash.

Hey!

I want to play everything.

Whoo!

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!

Grace.

That's embarrassing.

All right, no more twerking.

There's a certain way
to conduct yourself

inside and outside work,

and clearly Grace
doesn't know how to do either.

Whoo!

Grace is really making us
look like trash right now.

Rated E for everyone.

I love it. Even though
I'm totally rated R.

So, what's up
with Mikel and Trevor?

They're not
gonna hang out with us,

or are we just gonna
hang out with ourselves?

They don't want to lose.

- [laughs]
- It's that simple.

It was like I pissed myself,
so I only wear black.

Do you guys know the drinks
I was talking about that...

Grace and I at one point were
a really, really good team,

but now I feel a vibe
that there's a little divide.

Grace, I haven't--
Feel like I haven't said hi.

How are you?

I feel so much better
now that I spoke to Leva.

What'd she say about
the leaving early thing?

I was upset that she was gonna
suspend me or something for it.

Do you have an explanation?

I just, like,
really was not feeling good.

Like,
I've been having a migraine.

My sinuses-- My allergies,
like, the pollen.

But that's life.

I just feel like you put me
in a really weird position

because she called me

and when I walked down there,
you weren't there,

and I just want to make sure
there's no, like--

I didn't, like, tell on you.
It was just a genuine truth.

If you think
it's a bad look on my end,

like, help me out
in that sense.

You know,
I'm here for a reason.

You're honestly
not doing enough.

You're not bringing
the vibes enough.

Know what the expectations are.

You know what you need to do.
The path has been paved.

Go. Just walk in
and prove yourself.

So I'm gonna
prove to her that I am

the best investment
she'll ever make.

I'm gonna go above and beyond
so no one can say anything.

Let's go have fun.
Let's have fun.

I need a drink.

- This is hard.
- This is a lot.

This makes me more nauseous
than the bumper cars.

[laughs]

Uh, how do you feel
about Trevor being here?

It's kind of awkward. This is,
like, our company thing,

and he's just, like,
tagging along.

Tagging along
when it's supposed to be

about bonding with us.

I never thought I'd be jealous

of a girl
at a freakin' arcade place.

Go!

Look how close I was!

- Ow! Oh, shoot!
- [laughs] [bleep]

It's like a romantic comedy
in my head, but it's real.

No, this is how low
you get on your motorcycle.

You're like...

He's just the guy--

like a stereotypical

Freakin' romcom.

No way. That was lucky.

Go, go, go. [chuckling]

The fact that she's half naked
and, like, twerking

at a place that's
supposed to be, like, G-rated,

- like, children's--
- Cold and hot.

Yeah, it's embarrassing. We all
work for the same company,

for Leva and Lamar,

but I don't want to be
associated with someone

that doesn't represent
the brand well.

That's why I don't want
to talk to Grace right now.

I'd rather just not
talk to you and ignore you.

I don't want to be fake.

Hey, TJ.
Can you come outside with me?

- Yeah.
- Yeah? Okay.

TJ is a----ing bully,

and I don't [bleep]
with that energy.

I don't like that energy.

I'm gonna put you
in your place.

- How are you?
- I'm good.

I just wanted to talk to you
for a second

'cause I just felt like

there's some misunderstanding
between us.

I feel like
you don't really know me

but you're judging me
off the cover of a book.

You're right. I don't.

Right, but you seem like
you do know

because you're
looking at my Instagram,

judging me off my Instagram,

when you don't even
- ing know me.

I mean, it's kind of hard

not to judge you
off your Instagram--

Maddi posts the same sh--.
What's the difference?

Maddi does not post
the same sh--.

Maddi's butthole
is in her pants.

Okay, my butthole
is literally in my butthole.

Like, not for the Instagram
to----ing see.

I just don't think it's, like,

a great representation
for the brand.

You just think
that you can go in there,

post some hot pictures,
act like you're working,

- and then----ing leave.
- That's a part of the job.

I got hired at Republic
two and a half years ago

to post and promote.

[scoffs]

I'm gonna post
what I want to post.

I want to promote
what I want to share.

TJ's Instagram
is probably boring

if I even bother to look at it.

He really has nothing else
going on.

[laughs]

You literally came in here
at a family establishment,

and you were in here
- ing twerking.

How much attention
do you----ing need?

Do I walk into a room and say,
"Oh, my God, look at me,

look at me,
I'm the best thing ever"?

- Yes. Yes, you----ing do.
- No, I don't.

You think that because I shine.

That's the first thing
you did today.

Get it right! Get it tight!
Let's go!

- Let's go!
- [chuckles]

Let her have her moment.
Let her have her moment.

It's----ing cringeworthy.

Think you might have
some envious

or jealousy
towards me or something.

I know my worth. I know
my strength. I know my power.

Sit down, TJ, 'cause
all you do is serve drinks,

and they're not even that good.
[laughs]

I shine and I sparkle on my own
without having to do anything,

and you're intimidated by that
because I----ing shine.

- Okay.
- Sorry.

We're so busy actually working

and not posting up on
Instagram like we're working.

I do it for myself
'cause it makes me feel good.

Is that why you like
your own pictures on Instagram?

Why wouldn't I?

You know everyone
can see that, right?

That's okay.
I love liking my own photos.

Why wouldn't I like
my own photos--

Yeah, 'cause you're obsessed
with your----ing self.

TJ doesn't know the struggle
that I've been through

to get to this point
in my life,

to where I can post
these photos and feel confident

and love this image of myself.

Because in the past, I didn't
love myself like I do now.

Do you have anything else
to say? 'Cause I'm done.

- I want to have fun.
- Okay, yeah,

- we're at the fun part.
- I am fun.

I'm fun.
I'm having a good time.

I'm sorry you're just
not on the level that I'm at.

- I'll never be at that level.
- That's okay. That's okay.

And I don't want to be
at that---ing level.

Okay, good.

I'll shine on my own
like I always do.

Next time
on Southern Hospitality...

- Whee!
- [laughs]

I'm not even gonna lie.
I haven't had sex with him.

[whirring]

Joe's thrown out his back.

Can you pick up

[bleep] yeah, bitches!

Here comes the boom.

Checkmate, bitch.
