Previously on lipstick jungle...

I'm sleeping with a 25-year-old.

What?
What?

I didn't tell you guys

because I didn't want you looking at me

the way you're looking at me now.

You and Charles.

Well, I didn't cheat on you.

But you didn't tell us, so you kinda did.

Please make sure David Hernandez
gets this composer demo.

I don't want to be offered a job
just because I'm your husband.

I submitted you under a different name.

What?

I got the job.
Oh!

I wanted this to be simple.

You know, just physical

so that I could walk away
from it at any time.

I am not so sure that
that's what this is anymore.

I'm thinking about getting
into the fashion business,

and I think you are a damn good investment.

It's madness.
It's great.

How's Chicago?
When are you coming back?

The day after tomorrow.

I Miss your face.

I Miss you too.

What are you wearing?

Oh. Okay.

Bubbles.

We're in that big-ass bathtub of yours,

like the other night.

Remind me.

Use adjectives.

Where do you want this?

Uh, just put it right in there.

Yes, ma'am.

I was talking to Roy.

Did you invite him into the tub,

because I didn't.

Hold on a sec. Let me get rid of this call.

The new fabric has arrived.

Nice. Ooh,
I love that!

You kept going without me?

No, I was...

Okay, just hold on one...

Second.

O--
Hello?

Uhh!

Okay, privacy.

I'm losing you.

No, no, Joe, Joe!

You're not gonna lose me.

Shh! The kids'll hear us!

I'll keep it down then!

Oh, I can't breathe.

I need air,
I need air.

I need air. Oh!

Look how late it is already.

I thought we made a date
for this last night.

You're the one that conked out.

Oh! But you never came to bed.

I did eventually.

I was tossing around some ideas.

I ended up getting three more cues.

Are you proud of me?

Very.

All right, look.

Ten more minutes,

and then you have to take Taylor to school.

Oh, no, no, no, no.
You have to. Why?

I promised Dan a cd before lunch,

and I still have one more scene to score.

This you have time for?

Well, it's priorities, huh?

But honey, I've got a 9:00
with the Asian distributors.

Well, I better get
a move on then, haven't I?

Do you see how crazy it is here?

I have to wait in line to pee.

We're tripping all over each other.

I have an audience

when I'm trying to have a little phone sex.

Oh, phone sex with Joe Bennett.

What's that like?

Oh, the nasdaq's up 37 points.

Oh!

Hey, have those new places

on canal street opened up yet?

Yeah, they're pricey.

Is money no object?

Not for a contero.
Who?

Oh, right, cave man.

He's been great so far.

Everything we need, we get.

What do you know exactly

about this new investor of yours?

I know his checks clear.

Well, so did bugsy Siegel's.

He's a venture capitalist.

He's capitalizing on my venture.

Why are you questioning him?

Why aren't you?

You know, it's your name
out there, your business.

Which was one chapter away from 11

until he showed up.

Have you talked to anyone about him?

Of course.
I talked to Joe.

And he knows the guy,
and he approves of him 100%.

Well, then.

Okay, what is going on with you?

Why are you looking so luminous?

No, really, you're radiant,
and it's buggin' me.

Is it the Hollywood cookie diet?

No, I've just been getting
a little exercise recently.

Hi! Hey, honey, hey!
You're late.

Okay, look, this is why it pays
to be nice to every parent,

even if you're sure

that their kid's on a speed bump
to riker's island.

Do we know this person?

Hey, don't interrupt.
Excuse me.

All right, so I'm dropping
Taylor off at school,

and this mother who's a high
muckety-muck at scholastic

gets a phone call;
I listen.

It turns out she's talking--
Thank you--

About the Harry Potter books.

Apparently J.K. Rowling may have written

a prequel to the books years ago,

never gave it to anybody.

Nobody has the publishing rights

or the film rights.

And the word is,

she may be ready to share it
with us Muggles.

Whoa, you get that for parador--

Can you imagine?

I can imagine

running a chapter or two in the June issue.

That might sell some magazines.

No, you can't say anything yet.

No, I'm just talking to you.

Seriously,
I want to figure out

the perfect way to approach this.

Why do you look so good?

Did she lighten her hair?

She says it's exercise.
She's lying.

All right, fine,
I'm gonna come clean.

It's the Hollywood cookie diet.

Aren't there any decent numbers
I can show them?

I think Nico may have overestimated

what the web presence would bring in.

No one expected a million hits overnight.

It takes time.

Will I live to see it?

If we just stick
with the blue chip advertisers--

We have them.
It's about content.

Running stories that
our competitors don't have.

The last time you said that, we ran a story

about an innocent man who was convicted

and executed by the time we hit the stands.

That trial was a farce!

If you two have nothing tangible to offer,

don't waste my time!

Hector, wait,
I do have something.

What?

I can't go into details right now,

but I got a tip this morning.

I got a tip this morning too.

Take Madison.
There's construction on park.

What, Nico?

What if we got our hands
on the unpublished prequel

of Harry Potter?

They all sound great. Find
the space that works for you.

Well, how would you feel
about a two-year lease?

We could probably score a better deal.

Fantastic.

Refill, sir?

No, thank you.

I should be going.

Are you sure you don't want to see

some of my new sketches?

Would you like to look

through my stock portfolio

and tell me what I should hold on to

and what I should sell?

Point taken.

I say pick your top three.

The third is usually the charm.

Let me know, and we'll make it happen.

Just like that?

More or less.

Well, thank you.

Thank you for everything.

You're the engine, Victory.

I'm just filling the tank.

Bye.

Okay, is he for real?

As far as fairy godfathers go,
you hit the jackpot.

It's not color corrected,
but he'll get the idea.

Do you know how long he's gonna be?

Wendy.
Mike.

Wendy, I was just about to come see you.

Oh, just give me a second.
Hector. Wendy.

Do you have a second?

I've got that other ending
that you wanted. Leave it.

I'm in a board meeting
for the next few hours.

But very, very nice work
on the J.K. Rowling scoop.

I'm sure if anyone can
close that deal, it's you two.

Have a good trip.

I need a pretzel.

Have a nice trip?
I'm sorry.

I know that you wanted to wait.

It just kind of happened in the moment.

My moment.

Look, I gave you full credit.

You heard Hector.

I told you, like, an hour ago, Nico.

I knew that if
I got Hector on board

that he would offer us everything

and give us everything that we needed

to make this happen together.

That is not the point.
Yes, it is, Wendy.

If we don't move on this quickly,

it's gonna be too late.

Look, we could take the corporate jet,

fly tomorrow to Edinburgh,

meet with
Rowling's agents,

offer them everything under the sun.

They're not gonna be able to resist us.

I can't go to Scotland.

Shane is so busy right now.

I promised I'd be more available,

and I can't do that from
the other side of the atlantic.

It'll take three days, four at most.

Kilts, bagpipes, whiskey,

scotch, more scotch.

And your movie deal.

I can't.

Wendy.

I'm sorry.

Look, you go.
Go, okay?

Bring me back a tam.

Oh. Oh, yeah, oh.

Oh, oh, right there.

Oh!

Oh.
What time is it.

Who cares?

Me. I, uh...

Oh, I gotta--
I gotta go.

Nope.

I--look--

Give me back my feet.

Not--not if you're gonna use them to leave.

Come on.

I gotta--I--

Come back and spend the night.

Your husband's still out of town, right?

I gotta pack tonight,
get ready for my trip.

How long are you gonna be away?

Not long.

Not long is still too long.

Then why don't you come with me?

To your apartment?

To Scotland.

I mean,
I'm going there alone,

and my meetings won't take all day.

Are--are you serious?

Wouldn't it be nice

to see each other
outside of these four walls?

Walk down the street together

without looking over our shoulder?

I mean, we wouldn't be able
to fly together,

and we'd have to get separate
rooms at the hotel, but--

Yes.

Yes.

Mmm, yes.
Yes?

Mmm-hmm, yes.

Yes, mmm, yes.

Yes, wait, wait.
Mmm, yes, yeah, mm-hmm.

All right, look,
I don't know. I just--

I thought
I was really clear

when I said
I wanted to wait.

I should have been more specific.

Well, how'd you put it?

I said I wanted to wait.

Oh, 'cause, yeah, that could be confusing.

It just would have been nice
if I was the one to tell Hector.

That's all.

I know she's your bff and everything.

Did maddie teach you that?

Yeah, yeah, but you know,

don't get me wrong,
I love Nico.

I really do.

But if she ever has a chance

to make herself look good,

she grabs it.

Well, everyone does that.
I do that.

Yeah, but you, uh, you never
step on anyone to get it.

No, no, no Mayo if that's Taylor's.

She didn't step on me.

More like over.

Look, you know what?
It's fine.

Like, she'll go, she'll make the deal,

and it'll be good for everyone.

Plus there's nothing
I can do about it now.

Yes, there is.

You go on the trip, you stake your claim.

I can't go now.
You're too busy.

Mm-hmm, and hopefully
I'm gonna keep being busy.

Now let's figure out
how we're gonna adjust.

Does this involve selling our children?

Possibly.

No, darling, this is your catch.

Don't let Nico score it alone.

You need to be there.

Thank you.

I'm gonna go change my clothes.

Go on then.

Is this about you wanting to
read the prequel before anybody?

Don't even think of coming home without it.

Surprise.

Oh!

Hey!

Wow, wow, you came.

I made it.

Okay.

So Shane convinced me--
Thank you. Oh, sorry.

Ha! Great. Great.

Great.

Cocktail.

Paul izzier, serious buyer.

First-timer.

My former dentist.

Well, aren't you gonna say hello?

Why should I? He gave me a sinus infection.

How do you know if someone's a real buyer

and if someone's not?

Anyone too done up is here
for the scene, not the art.

First-timers have that
deer-in-the-headlights look.

Ah, there she is.

Bidding will start at 20.

Thousand?

Million?

You just gave yourself away, Bambi.

You would spend thaton this?

You asked.

Here comes the biggest poser.

Well, well, well,
look who's here buying art.

You still trying to furnish
that mausoleum you're living in?

Victory Ford,

Allan Farrow.

Hello.

Nice to meet you.

You're as beautiful as your designs.

Way too good for him.

Marsha didn't think so.

Heh! And yet she married me.

That's called the Stockholm syndrome.

You can forget that painting.
It's going home with me.

We'll see. So far,
I'm two for two.

See you at the Auction, Allan.

Is that your evil twin or are you his?

I used to date his wife,

centuries ago, back in b school.

He likes to throw moneyaround,

trying to show me up whenever he can.

I throw right back.

$20 million isn't a toss, Joe.

It's a hospital.

It's quite an expensive rivalry.

He's hardly my rival.

I don't give him a second thought.

Poser.

Oh.

Taylor packed a chip for me
in case I got lonely.

All right, I'll see what else is in here.

Oh, a healthy snack for mom.

You want a box?

Um, I'm--I'm good.

Uh, maybe later.

What's up?
Are you okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm fine.

You don't seem fine.

What happened to you, me,
scotch, more scotch, kilts?

I'm sorry, honey.
Look, you know what?

I'm--I'm really tired.

I was up really late last night

cramming for our meetings.

You know,
I haven't read the books

or seen the movies a million
times like you have.

Okay, well...

Oh, well, just in case,

he also threw in boggle.

Boggle. How about a game of boggle?

I think I'm just gonna close
my eyes for a little bit.

Do you mind?

No, not at all.

Okay, thanks.

It's not bad.

You could buy that and still
have enough left over

to buy a beach house to hang it in.

Or we could give it to a hospital.

Or a pet hospital.

Where do you think
Mr. Contero's money comes from?

Why?

I don't know.
It's just so weird.

He writes me checks

like he's handing out tickets
to a pony ride.

He must have a lot of faith in your talent.

I don't know.

Would you invest that much money

in someone you hardly knew?

I'm not even sure if I'm
wanting the kind of overhead

that he's willing to bankroll.

Well, then maybe you shouldn't be moving.

Maybe it's too soon.

In a couple months,
you might need a factory,

not a loft.

Well, on the other hand,
working where I sleep

isn't really workingfor me.

Come stay at my house.

What does that mean?

It means you don't have to sleep
on a sewing machine.

Joe, are you--

Did you just ask me to move in with you?

Did you hear those words?

I heard something that sounded
a lot like those words.

I'm offering you a temporary
solution to your problem.

I would like that.
Very much.

Good.

Here you go, ma'am.

That message was left for you this morning.

What's that?
Is it Hector?

It's, um, bonfire stuff.

Oh. Hey, do you want to grab a drink?

I'm a bit wired from the
flight. You know what?

I'm gonna go to my room

and make a few phone calls,

and I'll join you in a bit, in a while.

I'll be right there.

Ma'am, you'll be in 216.

Thank you.

A pleasure.

Wow. Home town of J.K. Rowling.

What's that like?

I only bring it up because
she always seems so elusive.

Well, it wouldn't do to gossip

about a national treasure now, would it?

Enjoy your stay.

Thank you.

Where has he been hiding this room?

I've never been in here before.

Does he ever use it?

Not much.

Well, it's massive.

He could have 100 people
in here for dancing.

Yeah.

I'll suggest that.

Oh, this room is so nice.

I've never been in here before either.

Oh, it was the library
up until a few hours ago.

Joe did all this for me?

Just today?

Yes, he did it all.

Eh, voila.

What?

What is this?

Everything a girl could possibly want.

All new, all your size.

Oh, my!

Oh, my g--

How could he--

What?

He is nuts.

Possibly.

Ooh!

Oh, my god!

What's through here, customer service?

It's your bedroom.

My bedroom?

My... Bedroom.
Yeah.

Hello?

If you're there,
I can't hear you.

Whoever this is,

I can't hear anything you're--okay.

Can I take your order?

Scotch, please.

Kincannon?
Sure.

Single malt?
Why not?

15 year old?
20 year old?

Do you prefer oak-ey
or something more peat-ey?

You know what? I think
I'll just have a beer.

Any kind of beer.

Wow, they take their scotches
pretty seriously, huh?

Oak-ey and peat-ey sound like
something my son would watch

on Saturday morning.

So what brings you to Scotland?

Work. How about you?

A beautiful woman.

In fact,
I'm waiting for her now.

Oh. I happen to be waiting
for a beautiful woman too.

Oh, look at that.

Oh, here she is.

Hey.

Hi.

You--you know Nico?

Oh, so you two have met?

Not officially.

Wendy Healy,

Kirby Atwood.

Hi.

We, uh, didn't think you were coming.

You know what?

Um, can you grab me a drink?

Yeah.
Thanks.

This is exactly what
I didn't want to happen.

"We"?

"We didn't think you were coming"?

Is that why you were so weird to me

when I got on that plane?

You let me sit there for six hours,

thinking you didn't want me here.

I guess you didn't.

Wendy, you said that
you didn't want to come,

and then when you did,
I didn't know how to tell you.

I cannot believe
that you're still seeing him.

I thought that my getting him that job

was your way of saying
good-bye and good luck.

I never said that.

I mean, maybe it wasn't
the smartest thing to do,

to have him meet me here, but I-- Maybe?

I wanted to see what it would be like

to be in a place where nobody knows us.

Can you please just stay for a drink?

Don't drag me into this, Nico.

I don't want to get
to know him or like him.

When we get back to new York,
do you want to double-date?

Here's your beer.

Thank you.

Scotch neat.

Thanks.

Cheers.

Here I thought I was the compulsive one.

Oh, my god, Joe.

When I die, if heaven
isn't exactly like this,

I'm going to be very disappointed.

Funny, in my version of heaven,

you own very few clothes.

I thought we were gonna have dinner.

I had a late meeting.

Then we'll have a nightcap.

Can't.
I have calls to return.

I am living here, right?

Which makes interaction
like this very convenient.

Listen, what are you doing tomorrow?

I've got the Auction,

then a black-tie thing at the Waldorf.

Someone's being honored.

It might be me.
I'm never sure.

Okay.

Then it's a date.

Lovely.

I'll pick you up at 7:00.

Well, I hope that you
don't get caught in traffic

between the third and the fourth floor.

I hear it's brutal during rush hour.

Sleep well.

I know that we don't have
any plans tonight,

but is there any room for some spontaneity

in this arrangement?

I think that can be arranged.

So Wendy, you have two kids, right?

A boy and a girl.

Taylor's 6 and maddie's 13.

Nice.

Teenagers are a handful, huh?

I'm sure you can relate.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.

Look, I'm sorry.

I can imagine this must feel

like a really horrible surprise party.

Uh, you know, but for what it's worth,

I am really glad to finally meet you.

And you know what?

I finally get the chance to say thank you

for setting me up with that job.

It was great.
I appreciated it.

You know what?

I am, uh, suddenly very tired,

so I am going to go call home

before the kids go to bed.

I'll see you at our meetings.

Wendy.
Good night.

I am so sorry
I dragged you here.

I'm sorry I came.

If I'd known something like
this could have happened--

No, but you didn't.

You realize that we can't--

This isn't gonna be the trip

that we thought it was.

Yeah, I kind of figured.

Hey, at least she was nice to me

before she knew who I was.

That's something, right?

You know, maybe I should go.

I could catch the first flight
out in the morning.

I'm sorry.

No, no, don't.

Look, I had a great day.

I took some killer pictures.
It's fine.

And it's gonna be okay.

She's your best friend.
She'll deal with it.

Yeah, I'm sure she will.

Thank you for being such a trouper.

What'd you expect me to do?

Throw a fit?

Start knocking things over?

I thought it was a possibility.

Lady, I'm not giving you any excuses

to get rid of me.

I was taking a walk,

and I found my way to holyrood palace.

Well, I had a couple

of hours to kill before the meeting,

so I thought I'd take in a little culture.

Oh, I'm surprised
I caught you.

I figured you and Nico would be busy

buying every argyle sweater
in a 100-mile radius.

Yeah, well, we're kind of doing
independent study.

That's unusual.

Look, honey,
I've got to go, okay?

The Tour Guide's giving me the evil eye.

Kiss the kids.
I love you.

Love you too.

Sorry. My husband, he's in new York.

Delightful for you.

Here we have Elizabeth I.

Born 1533,

died 1603.

Elizabeth's chief rival
was Mary, queen of scots.

Mary, for a time, was married

to the heir to the throne of england,

but it was common knowledge
she was having an affair

with her secretary,

one David rizzio.

Oh, excuse me.

Yes?

How old was that secretary?

I'm afraid I don't know.

Probably 25.

Although they were once very close,

eventually it was discovered

that Mary was involved in the plot

to have Elizabeth killed

so she could usurp her power.

Doesn't that figure.

Sorry.

Your fairy godfather's here.
He's in the back.

Again?

What, he's gonna live here now?

He's checking the latest invoices.

How did I end up with one billionaire

who doesn't have enough time
to have dinner with me

in his own house

and another one who stops by 50 times a day

just to clean my paperclips?

He likes you.

My mother doesn't like me that much.

I gotta admit, there's something

kind of hinky going on with him.

You think?

Mr. Contero, how are you?

Oh, I'm well, Victory.
And you?

I'm good.

I'm glad you're here, because I have

a couple of thoughts
that I want to run by you.

Go ahead.

I would like to do a sheepskin line.

How would you feel about us
breeding our own sheep?

Sounds efficient.

Are you thinking something upstate?

Uh, the catskills, maybe.

I'll do some research.

Great. That's great, great.

Um... Oh!

See this collar here?

I'm thinking feathers.

Have you ever heard

of the chinese crested tern?

It's pretty rare.

It's, like, almost extinct,
but these feathers,

they are the exact right color and texture,

but I know that they're gonna
be a little bit expensive.

But if they'll make the dress work,

then you should not hesitate.

Yeah, well, they have to be shipped

in these special air-tight,

climate-controlled containers

so that they don't molt.

Well, just put a note on the invoice

to remind me that we spoke about this,

and I'll make sure that it goes through.

Anything else today?

Nah.

No, that's--that's--
That's all, that's all.

Well, then,

have a wonderful day.

Always a pleasure.

The chinese crested tern?

National geographic.

Dermatologist's office.

I'm almost ready.

I just got off the phone
with Rowling's lawyer,

and the meeting's canceled.

Why?

I don't know. I couldn't
get a straight answer.

I mean, either Rowling got cold feet

or more likely, someone got in there

and made an offer before we did.

We came here for nothing.

Hector's gonna be disappointed.

Well, not necessarily.

Rowling has a kid in a private school

up in murchinson.

I hear that she's a very hands-on mom.

She drops off the kids at school.

She picks them up.

How does that help us?

Well, we could go over there

and try to meet her,

and you could do the whole mom-to-mom thing

and feel her out.

You're joking, right?

No.

If somebody came to Taylor
or maddie's school

and tried to pitch me a movie,

I'd be offended.

Well, that's you, and what
are you talking about?

I mean, you got the tip when you
dropped Taylor off at school.

It crosses a line.

Well, I'm sorry
I'm not living up

to your high moral standards these days.

Don't do that.

Don't try to make me out to be the bad guy.

I'm not the one who flew my boy toy

halfway around the world for a Booty call.

I told you bringing him here
was a mistake. I know that.

Bringing him here was the mistake?

How about being with him, period?

Yes, it's wrong.

I'm a terrible person.

Is that what you want to hear?

All I know is that I haven't
felt this kind of passion

in a long time, and it feels really good.

Please.

What is really bothering you? Hmm?

Is it that you don't
have that in your life?

You are so off base, you know that?

I can't even tell you.

Can't you just be there for me?

No.
No, you can't.

No. You dropped this bomb.

I found out you lied to me all this time,

cheating on your husband,

who, by the way, is also a friend of mine,

so I'm sorry I'm not throwing
my arms around you in support.

All right, mother superior,
you made your point.

Thank god you're not a mother.

What kind of values

would those poor kids be growing up with?

What if contero is laundering
money through my company?

He's not.

How do you know?

How well do you know him, anyway?

Well enough to know that he is not

laundering money through your company.

Could I make a suggestion?

Use your vivid imagination
to design clothes,

not conspiracy theories.

You're patronizing me.

I'm reassuring you.
There's a difference.

May I?

Come on.

I want to make a slight detour

before the Auction.

What is this?

When did you get a piano?

Ellen mentioned you saying
something about a dance floor.

You're insane.

You're a full-on crazy person.

I know you thought we could
fit a crowd in here.

I hope it's all right that it's just us.

Is everything all right?

It's fine, thank you.

Can you take my bags upstairs?

Thank you.

You don't have to say anything.

I know I shouldn't be here.

How was the rest of your trip?

I can't talk about it.

Why can't you talk about it?

We're friends.

Is that what we are?

And other things too.

But yeah,
I think so.

All right, then, friend, go home.

I'm tired.

Did you eat dinner on the plane?

I wasn't hungry.

Well, you gotta eat.

Tell you what.

I'm gonna leave a cheeseburger

and a chocolate shake with your doorman.

I'm fine, Kirby.

Medium well, right?

Medium rare.

Hello?

Oh, hi, darling.

Thought it was you.

I was just putting Taylor to bed.

How are you?
Hi.

Look at you.

Oh, is he asleep?

Yeah, yeah, but go
and wake him up and say hi.

He missed you.
We all did.

Good.

Let's take your bags back.
Come on.

So guess what I did whilst you were away?

Do I need to sit?

I booked another film.

Oh!
Mm-hmm.

Darren was showing a rough-cut of the film

to his director friends
with some of my cues in it,

and this one guy,
Kyle Henderson,

I think you know him, yeah?

Yeah, I do.
Yeah.

He, um, he really liked my work.

He's got a movie in prep.

He called me this morning.

We met, and that was it.

There you are!
Oh!

Honey, congratulations.

Thanks, darling.

What about your time?
How'd it go?

Did you show that
Nico Reilly who's boss? Eh?

Not really, no.

I'm gonna go see Taylor.

Sold!

Next up this evening,

Vincent van gogh's

l'arlesienne.

We'll begin our bidding tonight

at $20 million.

Ooh!
Ooh!

$20 million.

I have $20 million from Mr. Farrow.

Do I have 22.5?

22.5, Mr. Dunlop.

Thank you.
Do I have 25?

25.

A phone bid, 25.

Do I have 27.5?

27.5.

Mr. Dunlop, thank you.

Do I have 30?

$30 million, 30.

We have 30.

Do I have 32.5?

32.5, Mr. Farrow.

Do I have 35?

$35 million,
Mr. Joe Bennett.

$35 million,

37.5, Mr. Farrow.

Do I have 40?

$40 million?

$40 million,
Mr. Joe Bennett.

Oh, my god.
Do I have 42.5?

42.5, Mr. Farrow.
Do I have 45? What?

I know who's behind
Mr. Contero's money.

Who?
It's him.

Allan Farrow--
You said that he always

wants everything that you have.

Well, he's rich and he found a way

to mess with both of us at the same time.

It makes total sense.

$50 million, Mr. Joe Bennett.

He didn't buy your company.

How do you know?

Because I did.

$50 million, going once.

Going twice.

Sold to Mr. Joe Bennett
for a record $50 million.

How could you go behind my back like that?

If I had been up front about it,

you would have said no.

Yes, I would have said no.

I don't want the man
that I'm dating owning me.

God, what did you

say to him?

"Just give her anything she wants"?

Within reason.

By the way, a sheep farm?

Shut up.
I was testing him.

Can I have one of those?

No, you're not staying.

Can I at least explain
why I did what I did?

"A," your company is a good investment.

"B," I was trying to protect you

from people who actually might
have taken advantage of you,

like the Allan farrows of the world.

"C," I thought once you were up and running

and things were going well,

you would be grateful
instead of angry, and "D"--

Do I have to sit through all 26 letters

or can we maybe jump ahead?

"D," taking a small, struggling company

and turning it into a thriving business

is what I do.

It's the best of me,
Victory.

That's what I was offering you--my best.

Everything you just said
I would trade

to be able to just trust you.

And I am genuinely sorry for the lie.

I hope that it is mitigated
by what was behind it.

It isn't.

Which leaves us where?

On opposite sides of the issue.

Sell my company.
Just sell Victory Ford.

I will, in time.
Really?

'Cause I'm thinking 9:00 A.M.
Tomorrow morning works for me.

Once we're in profit.

It'd be irresponsible otherwise.

Did you hear anything
that I just said right now?

I did.

Did you hear anything I said?

We're done!

We're done.

Enjoy your $50-million painting.

Oh, my, you're up early.

Actually I'm up late.

Oh, you're jet-lagging.

Probably.

So, uh, Scotland...

It sucked.

We didn't get the book.

Oh.

And?

And I saw some sides to Nico

I'd just as soon not know about.

Well, hon,

you'd be the only one
who doesn't know about them.

But you know what?

I think that's why you
need her in your life.

You complement each other.

Oh, I did everything but compliment her.

I don't know if we'll ever even talk again.

A minor phase.

If there's one thing you and Nico can do,

it's talk.

I'll go put some coffee on.

Hey.

Hey.

Goin' out to lunch?

Uh-huh.

Part of me wishes you told me
everything from the beginning

and part of me wishes
I never found out.

Yeah, same here.

Nico, it was a rough couple of days

we both had.

The thing I said to you in the hotel,

the mommy comment,

that was a lousy thing to say.

Maybe you can forget it.

Tell me how.

Um, I'm gonna...

I'm gonna be late.

Have a good lunch.

Okay.
