Oh, my God.

How are you?

I'm amazing.

Oh, you look amazing.

Oh, thank you.

Welcome to Miami.

It's been too long.

What, six months?

Nearly a year.

Wow!

That is way too long.

But, it's awesome that you're here now.

Here, let me help you with your bag.

Wow, what do you have in here?

A ton of bricks?

I'll just steal my training wheels.

Oh!

You got me.

I always get you.

Listen, you're going to totally love Miami.

I love it already.

Okay.

So, here we go.

My palace.

It's great.

It's small.

It's fine.

The only problem is...

What? I've got a great dame arriving next weekend, so...

I hope that's a man.

Oh, me too.

Oh, girl.

Okay, so let me show you around, and it won't take long.

Here's the kitchen and the dining room.

This is my office.

Please feel free.

And here, this is where we'll eat,

drink, binge-watch TV, and gossip.

Very nice.

Hey, and tidy.

I spent two days cleaning before you arrived.

Only two days.

Getting better.

Come on, let me show you your room.

And this...

I'm sorry.

This box is your room.

I know it's not great, but...

Mia, it's lovely.

I-I think it's kind of cute.

I love it.

Thank you.

See?

That's why I love you.

You're always so totally positive.

I could've showed you my bathroom and said,

this is your room, and you would've said...

It's perfect.

Great for visiting the toilet in the night.

Exactly.

You also seem to be positive about your breakup with James.

I mean, how did you manage to do it so...

so amicably?

Because, um, well, we were friends and were

colleagues, but that was part of the problem.

You know, over the ten years, we went from this-in-love romantic couple to

relationships change.

I get that, but should romance necessarily have an expiration date?

I guess not.

I mean, I haven't been in a relationship

longer than two years, so I'm no expert.

But ten years seemed like a long time to me.

Are you okay?

Sure.

Yeah.

I mean, now I'm looking forward to the next chapter in my life.

And I'm not talking about a man.

I just need to get the rest of my life in order.

And that means, and that means first finding a job.

And you will.

-I will. -Come on.

So, you said you had something lined up?

Oh, well, an interview tomorrow at a top Miami ad agency.

Oh, well, that sounds promising.

Yeah, we'll see.

Anyway, tell me about this new man.

Oh, well, his name is Michael, and he

is just so gorgeous and wonderful.

I really feel lucky to have found him.

Uh, yes, I brought my résumé and references.

And as you can see, I originally trained as a

teacher, but, uh, I only taught for about a year.

I quickly realized it was, you know, not for me.

You said teaching wasn't for you?

Yep, that's right.

Yeah, I mean, it would have been great, except for the kids, ugh, you know?

Um, that was, um, that was another joke.

But I retrained, and, uh, I discovered my real niche in

creative advertising, and I totally, totally love what I do.

This is the fourth floor conference room.

What? Yeah, your interview is on the fifth floor conference room.

I'm on the wrong floor?

It appears that way.

Well, so, so, so what are you interviewing for?

Well, I require a live-in teacher for

my nine and-year-old daughters.

Okay.

I think this is yours.

Yes, yes, thank you.

I was gonna try to find you on the fifth floor, but here you are.

Yeah, did you find someone to watch your girls or teach your girls?

No, unfortunately not.

I had high hopes for the last candidate, but her

methods were old-fashioned about teaching and children, so.

Yeah, you're looking for someone with more

modern ideas and creative flair and imagination.

Maybe I am.

Your interview go well?

Yes, it went great.

I should hear back, so yes.

Actually, it didn't go well at all.

I was late, I didn't bring my resume or my

references, and you know, but I'm remaining positive.

You know, I've got the right experience, creative

skill, and imagination for the right job when it

comes along, and you know, I've only been in Miami one day, so.

Well, good luck with that.

Thank you, and I hope that you find someone to teach your girls.

Thank you.

Wait, just a thought.

You're obviously creative and imaginative, and you do have a teaching degree.

Oh.

-Maybe you could. -No, no, no.

No, I don't think so.

No, maybe you could come by for another interview and meet the girls.

I only rented out the office for today, so.

That is really nice of you, but I'm looking for a

teaching job, and it's been a long time since I taught anyway, so.

Keep the card, just in case.

Thanks anyway.

Are you serious?

Yep.

You went to the wrong interview.

Yeah.

To homeschool two kids?

Yeah.

Oh!

Well, how about the ad job interview?

Oh, I could tell that they thought I was totally incompetent.

Seriously, are you okay?

Sure.

This teaching thing.

No.

Mia.

-Oh, come on. -Don't just dismiss it.

What's the harm in going to go check it out?

Because creative advertising is what I do, and it's what I'm

good at, and I love it, and I didn't make this big move to

Miami just so I could go back to teaching, and I didn't even like it.

Yeah, a classroom full of delinquent teenagers.

But this is different.

This is two young kids.

Now, how difficult could that be?

If they are anything like their dad, totally difficult.

Mm.

Well, where does he live?

Oh, I don't...

Stephanie Miller.

Steph. She's here to interview for the teaching position.

Oh, hi, Steph.

And lovely to meet you.

Ms. Robbins is my housekeeper and my personal chef.

Well, good luck, Steph.

I hope it goes well.

Of course.

Oh, they're lovely girls, Steph.

Nothing.

Would you like me to introduce you as Miss Miller or Steph?

Well, it's not a formal classroom situation, so I'd prefer Steph.

Rosa, Bella, I'd like to introduce you to Miss...

Steph. She's here to be a possible teacher for you both.

Come say hello.

Lovely to meet you, Rosa, Bella.

Hi, Chef.

I'll leave you all to get to know each other, and when

Okay, cool.

Bye.

So, let me get this right.

You're Rosa.

-Yes. -So, you're Bella.

-Yes. -And how old are you both?

I'm ten.

And I'm nine. Oh, and when I came in, I

noticed that you were reading something.

What was it that you were reading?

We're both reading a series of unfortunate events.

Oh, I love those books.

-Have you read them? -All of them.

And I still think the first one is my favorite one.

-Me too. -I've nearly finished.

The Wide Window.

And who's your favorite character?

Gotta be Violet.

She is so clever.

I like Klaus.

-Klaus? -Yes.

Uh, no, we don't go to the movies.

Oh, you've gotta see it.

It's super fun.

Hey, is this Winky's Fruity Fruit Drink?

Yeah, we love it.

I used to work in commercials, and I did the TV promo for this ad.

No way.

You've seen it?

-Yeah. -Oh, gosh.

Well, and I wrote the song.

You wrote the song?

For real? Yeah, okay, listen up.-dun-dun.

It's a Fruity Fruit Drink, so let's all wink.-ha-ha.

Oh, thank you, Mrs. Robbins.

Well, Steph seems a bit different from all the previous tutors.

I figured after all the disasters we've

had, I would try someone less conventional.

Well, I like her.

I checked out her references this morning, and she comes highly recommended.

Oh, good.

Hi.

How'd it go?

Great.

They're really lovely.

Cool kids.

Yeah, they are.

You know, I think I'd have to brush up on my

teaching skills, especially after all this time

for that age range, but I think I'd really enjoy the job.

Well, shall we go check out the guest house?

Sure.

Well, it's relatively small compared to the main house, but

you do have your own kitchen, your living room, and a bedroom.

So, what do you think?

Uh, I-it's, uh, I-I suppose it's-it's adequate.

Adequate.

It's amazing.

So, if you're happy with the accommodations,

I would like to officially offer you the job.

Wow.

Oh, fantastic.

Thank you.

Thank-thank you very much.

Before I drop the contract, you should know

that my daughters, they're very lovely, but if

they don't take to you, they can be very challenging.

Oh, don't worry about it.

I like a challenge.

Good.

Now, you should know that my daughters

are the two most important people in my life.

I want the best for them.

Okay, right.

No pressure.

Although, I have been warned, they can be difficult.

Well, they're not teenagers, so you'll have no problem.

And hey, if the kids are charming, they

anything about why he lives alone with his two children.

I don't know who it belongs to.

Creepy suitor?

Yet another mystery.

Thank you, Alice.

So, do you live here, too?

Oh, no, no.

I have my own family.

And how long have you worked for Mr. Carlton?

For eight years.

Wow, that's a long time.

So, most of the girl's life.

Yeah, more or less.

And so, um, why does Mr. I

hate calling him Mr. Carlton.

Um, do you call him Harry?

No.

Not even after eight years.

So, why does he live on his own?

Like, what about his wife?

Oh.

You know, it's really not my position to

talk about Mr. Carlton's private life.

Anyway, I just hope you last longer than the previous tutors.

Wow, how long did they last?

Oh, two months was the longest.

Really?

Only two months?

Here you are, Mrs. Robbins.

Oh, thank you.

I see you're making yourself at home.

And, uh, who's this?

Sorry, sorry, this is my friend Mia.

Well, they're pretty cute.

The guy is a total jerk.

I just hope I did the right thing.

Oh, and what is the mystery about his wife?

Who knows?

Well, at least on the plus side, he is pretty hot.

So we're going to start by checking your reading age.

So let's go ahead and read the first couple of chapters.

Rosa, would you like to start us with the first passage?

Christmas won't be Christmas without any

presents, grumbled Joe, lying on the rug.

We haven't got Father and shall not have him for a long time.

Excellent, Rosa.

Bella, your turn.

Joe was the first to wake up on the great dawn of Christmas morning.

No stockings come out of the fireplace.

And for a moment, she felt as much disappointed as she did long

ago, when her sock fell down because it was so crammed with goodies.

Well done.

Wow, you girls are such good readers.

All right, next, we'll go ahead and...

-Oh, hey. -Oh. -You want a hand?

Oh, hi there.

Uh...

Thanks.

How'd the first day go?

Great.

Um, you know, I've got some ideas about how to get them more engaged

in some of the subjects that they're less enthusiastic about, but, um...

Oh, I should let you get back to what you were doing.

I've got some reading of my own to do.

Well, have a good day, Miss Miller.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Six times seven, the answer is?

42.

Amazing, if you have 42, cross it off.

Next number is five times five, Bella.

Amazing.

OK, if you have 25, cross it off.

Next number is 9 times 9.

81.

Sorry to disturb you.

Is everything okay?

Oh, sure.

-Yeah. -We've had a great morning.

Your girls are very bright.

Uh, yeah, I know they are.

Of course you do.

Um, they are so bright, in fact, that we finished our lesson

early, and I was wondering if I could take them to the beach.

Okay, girls, how are we doing?

Nearly finished.

Unfinished.

Okay.

Well, we won't be able to do your stories today.

We'll have to read them tomorrow.

Where to?

Well, we could go to the movies.

Okay, or maybe something different.

Have you ever been bowling?

No.

Oh, you've got to do that, then.

I suppose.

And, Dad, you can come with us.

Well, I'll agree to Miss Miller taking you bowling, but...

Please, Dad, we want you to come, too.

Please, Dad, please, please, please, please?

was actually in a bowling league when he was younger.

Oh, well, then you should have no problem teaching the girls.

It was a long time ago.

Okay, girls?

Ready, ready.

So, this is your first time, and as your dad is the expert...

Uh...

Right. Harry, it is.

Okay, Harry, quick demonstration for your lovely daughters.

Okay, you listening, girls?

Yes, Dad.

All right, so what you're gonna do is you're gonna find

the ball that's appropriate for your weight and your age.

Now, this one is right for me.

And you're gonna stick your three fingers in the hole like that.

See?

And then you're gonna straighten your arm out,

you're gonna take a couple of steps, see your

target down the lane, pull the ball back, and release.

Pretty easy, huh?

Uh, no.

Well, watch and learn, okay?

We weren't laughing at you, we were laughing with you, weren't we, girls?

No, I was laughing at him.

Okay, well, let's see you try it, Bella.

Okay, but no fooling around.

Yes, Dad.

Okay, up you go.

top of Everest, which is actually 8,850 meters tall.
