1
00:00:02,700 --> 00:00:03,233
Hello.
Was that your dad?
2
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:05,967
Yeah.
Why does your
voice get lower?
3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:07,500
My dad's been asking
to see me
4
00:00:07,533 --> 00:00:08,400
for a while,
5
00:00:08,433 --> 00:00:09,633
but I don't want
6
00:00:09,667 --> 00:00:11,633
to freak him out.
7
00:00:11,667 --> 00:00:13,333
CASSANDRA:
I just want you
to get over the shame.
8
00:00:17,133 --> 00:00:19,000
Cece.
If I said I wasn't
9
00:00:19,033 --> 00:00:21,167
attracted to Laith,
that would be stupid.
10
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:22,700
ARISCE:
If anyone's gonna have Laith,
it's me.
11
00:00:22,733 --> 00:00:23,633
I'm kind of the seductress
12
00:00:23,667 --> 00:00:24,633
of the group.
13
00:00:24,667 --> 00:00:25,567
Oh, my God.
14
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:27,267
What's going on?
15
00:00:27,300 --> 00:00:28,133
Arisce kind of freaks me out.
16
00:00:28,167 --> 00:00:29,467
Is it making you nervous?
17
00:00:29,500 --> 00:00:30,467
It's a little uncomfortable.
18
00:00:30,500 --> 00:00:31,667
But she intrigues me.
19
00:00:31,700 --> 00:00:33,333
The future doesn't have a lot
in store for me and Laith
20
00:00:33,367 --> 00:00:34,367
if he doesn't make more moves.
21
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:35,433
(laughs)
22
00:00:35,467 --> 00:00:36,833
CASSANDRA:
New York City.
23
00:00:36,867 --> 00:00:38,000
Do you smell that?
24
00:00:38,033 --> 00:00:38,900
It stinks.
25
00:00:38,933 --> 00:00:40,833
New York is a city
full of bitches,
26
00:00:40,867 --> 00:00:41,700
and I need to be
the only bitch.
27
00:00:41,733 --> 00:00:42,633
ISIS:
Miss I write
open letters
28
00:00:42,667 --> 00:00:44,000
to Kendall Jenner.
29
00:00:44,033 --> 00:00:45,633
Miss I haven't done anything
30
00:00:45,667 --> 00:00:46,967
since America's
Next Top Model.
31
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,567
Oh, I got a text from my ex.
32
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,067
She was, like, the first
chick that I ever dated
33
00:00:50,100 --> 00:00:52,267
before I even transitioned
or anything like that.
34
00:00:52,300 --> 00:00:54,500
Are we gonna get
to meet your ex?
No.
35
00:00:54,533 --> 00:00:56,333
Let's follow her.
36
00:00:56,367 --> 00:00:58,200
NEWSMAN:
The deadliest mass shooting
37
00:00:58,233 --> 00:00:59,467
in American history.
38
00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:00,533
I'm in shock.
39
00:01:00,567 --> 00:01:01,900
DOMINIQUE:
It makes me feel angry.
40
00:01:01,933 --> 00:01:03,433
They win when we hide.
41
00:01:04,567 --> 00:01:06,567
42
00:01:30,633 --> 00:01:33,300
Welcome to the high life
43
00:01:33,333 --> 00:01:34,600
That next level
44
00:01:35,633 --> 00:01:37,333
That next level
45
00:01:37,367 --> 00:01:38,333
Yeah
46
00:01:38,367 --> 00:01:39,967
Everything I do is big...
47
00:01:40,067 --> 00:01:41,933
CASSANDRA:
New York City.
48
00:01:41,967 --> 00:01:43,833
That's the bridge
that the trains come
49
00:01:43,867 --> 00:01:45,767
into New York on.
50
00:01:46,833 --> 00:01:49,233
You smell that, the pollution?
51
00:01:49,267 --> 00:01:50,233
Um, it's not pollution.
52
00:01:50,267 --> 00:01:51,567
It's the New York City hustle.
53
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,567
It's the grind.
54
00:01:52,600 --> 00:01:53,700
It's the, "Let's get
55
00:01:53,733 --> 00:01:55,067
this done, baby."
Yeah.
56
00:01:55,067 --> 00:01:56,600
Everything I do is big
57
00:01:56,633 --> 00:01:57,700
Pedal to the metal
58
00:01:57,733 --> 00:01:58,867
Fast lane
59
00:01:58,900 --> 00:02:00,167
Running like the rebels...
60
00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:01,633
DOMINIQUE:
We're in the fashion capital
61
00:02:01,667 --> 00:02:03,367
of the world
62
00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:05,233
to introduce Slay Models
to the New York market.
63
00:02:05,267 --> 00:02:06,133
Like I've never been
64
00:02:06,167 --> 00:02:07,867
outside of SoCal,
basically.
65
00:02:07,900 --> 00:02:09,400
I'm excited.
66
00:02:09,433 --> 00:02:11,200
This is the city very
much of paying your dues
67
00:02:11,233 --> 00:02:12,733
Uh-huh.
and then you can
leave and go do
68
00:02:12,767 --> 00:02:14,467
your own thing because
you made it here.
69
00:02:14,500 --> 00:02:15,667
And I already
made it here,
70
00:02:15,700 --> 00:02:16,767
so I don't need
to come back.
71
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,333
Isn't New York
more of, like,
72
00:02:18,367 --> 00:02:20,267
a fashion capital
than L.A.?
73
00:02:20,300 --> 00:02:21,733
Oh, most definitely.
Yeah.
74
00:02:21,767 --> 00:02:23,067
Then wouldn't you
75
00:02:23,100 --> 00:02:25,067
by that logic be more
76
00:02:25,067 --> 00:02:26,433
excited to be
working here?
77
00:02:26,467 --> 00:02:28,667
To do... okay, never mind.
No, I'm a commercial
girl now,
78
00:02:28,700 --> 00:02:30,133
which means I don't like
the New York weight
79
00:02:30,167 --> 00:02:31,367
of 121 pounds
80
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:32,633
at six feet tall.
81
00:02:32,667 --> 00:02:34,567
And, uh...
Hey, that's not true.
82
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:35,567
Girl.
83
00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,133
It's true of the
younger models.
84
00:02:37,167 --> 00:02:38,900
Now I understand
why you don't like it.
85
00:02:38,933 --> 00:02:41,133
What?
(laughs)
86
00:02:41,167 --> 00:02:42,300
(both laughing)
87
00:02:42,333 --> 00:02:45,067
ARISCE:
I... do not like New York.
88
00:02:45,067 --> 00:02:46,600
I was in New York
for three years
89
00:02:46,633 --> 00:02:49,767
and I've always
just put in my 110%.
90
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:51,233
And I could pull that off
for three years,
91
00:02:51,267 --> 00:02:52,767
but after that I got tired.
92
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:54,133
I was like,
I'm going to the beach
93
00:02:54,167 --> 00:02:55,400
and I'm gonna be some
surfer guy's girlfriend.
94
00:02:55,433 --> 00:02:57,067
And so I moved to L.A.
95
00:02:57,067 --> 00:02:59,300
New York is a city
full of bitches
96
00:02:59,333 --> 00:03:00,433
and I need to be
the only bitch.
97
00:03:00,467 --> 00:03:01,833
We can't all be
queen bee, bitch.
98
00:03:01,867 --> 00:03:03,933
So, you're queen
bee in L.A.?
No, here's the thing.
99
00:03:03,967 --> 00:03:05,800
It's queen bees with no
f---ing credentials.
100
00:03:05,833 --> 00:03:07,900
ISIS:
I'm just like, girl, shut up.
101
00:03:07,933 --> 00:03:09,333
Like, if you're really
all these things,
102
00:03:09,367 --> 00:03:10,900
you don't have to say it.
103
00:03:10,933 --> 00:03:12,733
Because I don't have to throw
all my credentials around.
104
00:03:12,767 --> 00:03:15,067
You don't know what I've seen
or where I've been.
105
00:03:15,067 --> 00:03:16,200
I prefer L.A.
106
00:03:16,233 --> 00:03:17,833
I prefer L.A.
107
00:03:17,867 --> 00:03:19,267
I still love New York.
108
00:03:19,300 --> 00:03:21,067
It's been two weeks
since I left New York,
109
00:03:21,067 --> 00:03:23,900
and I'm really excited
to see my husband.
110
00:03:23,933 --> 00:03:25,267
This is the longest we've been
111
00:03:25,300 --> 00:03:27,933
apart and it's hard on him.
112
00:03:27,967 --> 00:03:29,833
You don't sound too happy.
113
00:03:29,867 --> 00:03:31,967
I know. You want me to
be back home, right?
114
00:03:33,767 --> 00:03:36,433
Being in L.A. has been
great for my career,
115
00:03:36,467 --> 00:03:39,433
but it hasn't really been
that good for my marriage.
116
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:41,967
Let's ride, let's ride
117
00:03:42,067 --> 00:03:43,067
Get out of the way.
118
00:03:44,233 --> 00:03:45,433
ARISCE:
We're here.
119
00:03:47,667 --> 00:03:49,367
DOMINIQUE: Hey.
How are you?
120
00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:50,367
What's up? I'm good.
121
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,300
Hey.
(laughs)
122
00:03:52,333 --> 00:03:53,633
So, we're here in New York
123
00:03:53,667 --> 00:03:55,733
because Fashion Week
is coming up in September,
124
00:03:55,767 --> 00:03:57,800
and this is the best time
125
00:03:57,833 --> 00:03:59,333
to attract new clients.
126
00:03:59,367 --> 00:04:00,433
Sit down.
127
00:04:00,467 --> 00:04:02,800
I'm so excited to see
all of you here.
128
00:04:02,833 --> 00:04:05,700
It's an important week for us,
so, please take it seriously.
129
00:04:05,733 --> 00:04:08,533
So, the first thing
on the agenda,
130
00:04:08,567 --> 00:04:10,267
you have a show
131
00:04:10,300 --> 00:04:11,767
with Hood By Air.
132
00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:13,700
So, that's exciting.
Oh, you've been
working, Cece.
133
00:04:13,733 --> 00:04:14,767
That's what's up.
134
00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:16,900
Hood By Air is
a leading designer
135
00:04:16,933 --> 00:04:20,367
who decided to use our models
as part of their presentation.
136
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:22,700
CASSANDRA:
And they've worked
with Kanye West.
137
00:04:22,733 --> 00:04:24,167
CECE: Rihanna.
CASSANDRA: Rihanna.
138
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:25,167
Drake.
CECE: Yeah.
139
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:26,633
There's a fitting
for that.
140
00:04:26,667 --> 00:04:28,700
Please, make sure
you get there on time.
141
00:04:28,733 --> 00:04:31,167
Another thing that
we have is, nobody panic,
142
00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:32,967
I'm looking
into new models.
143
00:04:33,067 --> 00:04:34,867
We're here looking
for new models
144
00:04:34,900 --> 00:04:36,900
because it's always
145
00:04:36,933 --> 00:04:38,333
about growing and expansion.
146
00:04:38,367 --> 00:04:39,833
If you can't
find them in New York,
147
00:04:39,867 --> 00:04:41,800
where can you find them?
That's true.
148
00:04:41,833 --> 00:04:43,700
So, Dominique, you have to
come with me and Cassandra.
149
00:04:43,733 --> 00:04:45,133
We need you there.
150
00:04:45,167 --> 00:04:47,967
Dominique just isn't
one of my models now.
151
00:04:48,067 --> 00:04:49,067
She's with management,
152
00:04:49,100 --> 00:04:50,533
and I value her eye.
153
00:04:50,567 --> 00:04:51,600
Can I go see
my family now?
154
00:04:51,633 --> 00:04:52,600
Oh, my God,
all right.
155
00:04:52,633 --> 00:04:53,600
Everybody check in.
156
00:04:53,633 --> 00:04:54,600
I will see you tomorrow.
157
00:04:54,633 --> 00:04:55,967
Yay!
CECE:
Go home.
158
00:04:56,067 --> 00:04:57,067
Okay.
159
00:04:57,067 --> 00:04:58,067
I am home-- sort of.
160
00:04:58,067 --> 00:04:59,133
Mwah.
Thank you.
161
00:05:04,533 --> 00:05:06,267
Tell me where you're going
162
00:05:06,300 --> 00:05:08,867
Tell me where you've been...
163
00:05:08,900 --> 00:05:10,967
DOMINIQUE:
Al and I have
a traditional marriage.
164
00:05:11,067 --> 00:05:12,400
He really believes that
165
00:05:12,433 --> 00:05:14,300
I'm supposed to serve him.
166
00:05:14,333 --> 00:05:17,567
For a very long time,
I tried to make sure
167
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,133
that the work I was getting fit
around my husband's schedule,
168
00:05:21,167 --> 00:05:23,400
so I would be at home
when he needed me there.
169
00:05:23,433 --> 00:05:27,167
So, when I decided to join
Slay Models as management,
170
00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,767
it was a really huge shock
to my husband.
171
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:31,767
I'm leaving New York.
172
00:05:38,533 --> 00:05:41,767
I think he'll be happy to see
me, but this is a work trip
173
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,500
and Al is not accustomed
to me being a working woman.
174
00:05:45,533 --> 00:05:49,233
So, I'm nervous to
see how this will go.
175
00:05:57,233 --> 00:05:58,467
Hey, you.
176
00:05:58,500 --> 00:05:59,700
AL:
Oh, hey.
177
00:05:59,733 --> 00:06:00,767
I missed you.
178
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:02,300
(dog whining)
I missed you, too.
179
00:06:02,333 --> 00:06:03,367
Turn around,
let me see.
180
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:04,567
Yeah, I missed you.
181
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:06,833
Let me make sure
you're okay.
(both laugh)
182
00:06:06,867 --> 00:06:08,733
He wants a hug, too.
Come here, you.
Come here and tell me
183
00:06:08,767 --> 00:06:09,900
all about it.
184
00:06:09,933 --> 00:06:11,567
Tell me all the bad
things that Daddy did.
185
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:13,567
I am so exhausted.
186
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,633
I am so happy to see
you, but I'm tired.
187
00:06:15,667 --> 00:06:16,833
(smooches)
188
00:06:16,867 --> 00:06:17,833
He missed you.
189
00:06:17,867 --> 00:06:19,533
(laughs)
190
00:06:19,567 --> 00:06:20,600
I missed him, too.
191
00:06:20,633 --> 00:06:22,200
I missed you, too.
192
00:06:22,233 --> 00:06:24,567
Oh, gosh, but listen.
193
00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,667
Work was amazing.
194
00:06:26,700 --> 00:06:28,467
I shot with Irving Parker.
195
00:06:28,500 --> 00:06:29,667
Ooh, I got... I walked
in on a shoot
196
00:06:29,700 --> 00:06:31,467
for Richie Rich and...
197
00:06:31,500 --> 00:06:33,433
You don't know who
Richie Rich is, honestly.
198
00:06:33,467 --> 00:06:35,367
Anyway... anyway.
(laughs)
199
00:06:35,400 --> 00:06:37,933
It doesn't even seem
like you want to know.
200
00:06:37,967 --> 00:06:39,100
I can look at your face.
201
00:06:39,133 --> 00:06:40,733
I can tell.
You just...
202
00:06:44,267 --> 00:06:45,533
But it was fun.
203
00:06:45,567 --> 00:06:46,700
It was exciting.
204
00:06:46,733 --> 00:06:48,367
I was... I was shooting.
205
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,200
So...
206
00:06:50,233 --> 00:06:52,333
It's something that
I always dreamed of
207
00:06:52,367 --> 00:06:54,200
and it's happening for me,
208
00:06:54,233 --> 00:06:57,367
so you should be just a
little bit happier for me,
209
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,167
you know, and...
210
00:07:04,300 --> 00:07:06,533
When Al is dismissive
over my success,
211
00:07:06,567 --> 00:07:07,633
it hurts.
212
00:07:07,667 --> 00:07:10,267
I just feel like he's not
213
00:07:10,300 --> 00:07:11,800
on the same page with me.
214
00:07:11,833 --> 00:07:14,167
I know you
don't like that,
215
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,067
but I'm getting to work.
216
00:07:16,067 --> 00:07:20,167
If Al doesn't show me that
he's willing to grow and change,
217
00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,067
then I don't know if our
marriage is going to survive.
218
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,300
219
00:07:29,667 --> 00:07:30,733
Hey.
220
00:07:30,767 --> 00:07:31,767
Ready to try on
some clothes?
221
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:32,700
DOMINIQUE:
Oh, most definitely.
222
00:07:32,733 --> 00:07:34,333
It has this
jacket with a hood.
223
00:07:34,367 --> 00:07:36,167
This stuff is
real amazing.
224
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,300
Hi.
225
00:07:37,333 --> 00:07:38,433
The fitting is what's done
226
00:07:38,467 --> 00:07:40,633
before any runway show
227
00:07:40,667 --> 00:07:42,700
to make sure everything
fits perfectly.
228
00:07:43,667 --> 00:07:45,267
If it doesn't fit all the way,
229
00:07:45,300 --> 00:07:46,267
they will tailor it to you.
230
00:07:46,300 --> 00:07:47,433
Catch.
231
00:07:47,467 --> 00:07:49,533
Thanks.
(Arisce laughs)
232
00:07:49,567 --> 00:07:50,900
Since our date in L.A.,
233
00:07:50,933 --> 00:07:52,167
me and Laith have talked
234
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:53,433
on the phone almost every day.
235
00:07:57,667 --> 00:07:58,467
We'll see what happens.
236
00:07:58,500 --> 00:08:00,167
This is cute.
237
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:01,333
Oh, look.
238
00:08:01,367 --> 00:08:02,767
(shouts)
It's so fun.
239
00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,433
(coughs)
240
00:08:05,467 --> 00:08:07,167
Stop talking
about yourself.
241
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,700
Stop, uh, stop projecting,
bitch.
242
00:08:08,733 --> 00:08:10,300
(Arisce laughs)
243
00:08:10,333 --> 00:08:11,967
ISIS:
Arisce, you managed to get
in that skirt today.
244
00:08:12,067 --> 00:08:13,333
I'm so proud of you.
245
00:08:13,367 --> 00:08:15,167
I know.
246
00:08:15,200 --> 00:08:16,533
Like, someone's
really mad
247
00:08:16,567 --> 00:08:18,167
I showed up
with the wrong person.
248
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,667
I'm so not mad
you showed up with anybody.
249
00:08:20,700 --> 00:08:22,433
Are you sure, honey?
250
00:08:22,467 --> 00:08:24,067
Definitely.
You're sure you're not
just a little mad?
251
00:08:24,100 --> 00:08:25,767
I'm definitely not.
I'd be mad.
252
00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,067
Isis was a little abrasive,
253
00:08:28,100 --> 00:08:29,667
but that's on her.
254
00:08:29,700 --> 00:08:31,400
Like, I have, like, 19 guys
255
00:08:31,433 --> 00:08:32,400
in my inbox.
256
00:08:32,433 --> 00:08:33,400
Are you mad about them, too?
257
00:08:33,433 --> 00:08:34,767
Just because you know this one.
258
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,233
Those pants
are really cute
259
00:08:37,267 --> 00:08:38,467
from the back.
260
00:08:38,500 --> 00:08:40,333
Those are really hot.
LAITH:
From the back?
261
00:08:40,367 --> 00:08:41,333
ISIS:
No, from the...
look at the back.
262
00:08:41,367 --> 00:08:42,333
Seriously.
LAITH:
'Cause you're...
263
00:08:42,367 --> 00:08:43,400
you're checking
out my ass.
264
00:08:43,433 --> 00:08:44,400
It's okay.
Get the hell out of here.
265
00:08:44,433 --> 00:08:45,400
I don't...
I don't like butts.
266
00:08:45,433 --> 00:08:46,400
You know you like this.
267
00:08:46,433 --> 00:08:47,667
I don't know why
you're fronting.
268
00:08:47,700 --> 00:08:50,233
I think Isis has
a little crush.
269
00:08:50,267 --> 00:08:51,233
She teases me too much.
270
00:08:51,267 --> 00:08:53,067
She makes it obvious.
(laughs)
271
00:08:53,067 --> 00:08:54,900
You're always trying to make
it seem like me and Arisce
272
00:08:54,933 --> 00:08:56,167
have something, but I see you...
273
00:08:56,200 --> 00:08:57,567
I'm not trying to make it
like you and Arisce...
274
00:08:57,600 --> 00:08:58,867
You and Arisce are making it
275
00:08:58,900 --> 00:09:00,367
like you guys have
something, not me.
Uh-huh.
276
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,367
I've seen your
eyes wandering.
277
00:09:02,400 --> 00:09:03,700
Arisce showed me
around in L.A.
278
00:09:03,733 --> 00:09:05,567
We started texting and talking
a lot more often.
279
00:09:05,600 --> 00:09:07,467
I think we are
280
00:09:07,500 --> 00:09:09,100
becoming closer friends.
281
00:09:09,133 --> 00:09:10,133
Could there be more?
282
00:09:10,167 --> 00:09:11,667
Maybe.
283
00:09:11,700 --> 00:09:13,067
She doesn't have a man.
284
00:09:13,067 --> 00:09:14,600
Girl, I don't want
your man, honey.
285
00:09:16,500 --> 00:09:18,200
Yeah, you do.
Get the f---
out of here.
286
00:09:18,233 --> 00:09:19,200
LAITH:
Stop fighting
over me.
287
00:09:19,233 --> 00:09:20,567
I was just
about to say,
288
00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:21,967
have you dated them?
(laughs)
289
00:09:22,067 --> 00:09:23,267
Ain't nobody fighting
over you.
Yeah.
290
00:09:23,300 --> 00:09:24,367
ISIS:
Nobody's fighting
over you.
291
00:09:24,400 --> 00:09:26,067
No?
This is between
me and Arisce.
292
00:09:26,067 --> 00:09:27,400
What are you
talking about?
293
00:09:27,433 --> 00:09:28,567
Me and Arisce are
very competitive,
294
00:09:28,600 --> 00:09:30,867
and I think that this situation
295
00:09:30,900 --> 00:09:32,567
just brings out
how competitive we are.
296
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,167
Miss I write open letters
to Kendall Jenner.
297
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,500
Miss I haven't done anything
since America's Next Top Model.
298
00:09:37,533 --> 00:09:38,933
ISIS:
Are you kidding me?
299
00:09:38,967 --> 00:09:40,767
You're almost as funny
as you look.
300
00:09:40,800 --> 00:09:43,367
Uh, I was going to say
the same thing about you,
301
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,667
but no one's looking.
302
00:09:46,700 --> 00:09:48,733
Ladies, ladies.
303
00:09:48,767 --> 00:09:49,767
ISIS:
You know, I would think
304
00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,200
you would stand up
for your girl,
305
00:09:51,233 --> 00:09:53,067
'cause obviously she's not big
enough to take care of herself.
306
00:09:53,067 --> 00:09:54,067
LAITH:
Oh, my God.
307
00:09:54,067 --> 00:09:55,400
You're going in right now, Isis.
308
00:09:55,433 --> 00:09:56,467
You need to chill.
309
00:09:58,400 --> 00:09:59,367
I got a text from my ex.
310
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:01,133
She was, like, the first
chick that I ever dated.
311
00:10:01,167 --> 00:10:03,367
Are we gonna get
to meet your ex?
No.
312
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:05,567
Do you still think that
moving to Los Angeles
313
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:06,933
was the right choice?
314
00:10:06,967 --> 00:10:08,667
What's the real reason
you left New York?
315
00:10:13,033 --> 00:10:13,767
Looking like
a queen tonight
316
00:10:15,100 --> 00:10:16,900
Uh-oh-oh
317
00:10:16,933 --> 00:10:19,267
This feels so right.
318
00:10:19,300 --> 00:10:21,800
The cab driver that I had
was telling me
319
00:10:21,833 --> 00:10:22,900
all these places to see,
320
00:10:22,933 --> 00:10:25,800
like giant bridge
to Brooklyn.
321
00:10:25,833 --> 00:10:27,700
LAITH (laughing):
The Brooklyn Bridge?
Yeah...
322
00:10:27,733 --> 00:10:28,933
and the giant park
323
00:10:28,967 --> 00:10:30,867
that's in the middle
of the island.
324
00:10:30,900 --> 00:10:32,367
(laughing):
Central Park?
Yeah.
325
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:33,567
LAITH (laughing):
Okay.
326
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:35,167
All right.
And, um...
327
00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,167
The Big Apple.
328
00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:37,567
LAITH:
We are in
The Big Apple.
329
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,300
So, there's no, like, big...
330
00:10:39,333 --> 00:10:40,767
apple?
Oh... okay.
331
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:41,800
(laughing):
Not that I'm aware of.
332
00:10:41,833 --> 00:10:43,200
Why do they call it
The Big Apple?
333
00:10:43,233 --> 00:10:44,500
I have no...
I don't really know.
334
00:10:44,533 --> 00:10:45,833
'Cause everybody wants a bite,
honey.
335
00:10:45,867 --> 00:10:47,000
REN:
For a modeling job
to take me
336
00:10:47,033 --> 00:10:49,700
all the way to New York,
it's exciting.
337
00:10:49,733 --> 00:10:50,700
When I was homeless,
338
00:10:50,733 --> 00:10:53,167
my best aspirations possible
339
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:54,733
was just to have
a roof over my head.
340
00:10:54,767 --> 00:10:57,367
But working in New York
with a modeling agency
341
00:10:57,400 --> 00:10:59,167
for a famous designer,
342
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:00,967
it's absolutely crazy.
343
00:11:01,067 --> 00:11:03,167
I have no idea where
it can take me next.
344
00:11:04,067 --> 00:11:05,833
ISIS:
Well, well, well.
345
00:11:05,867 --> 00:11:07,200
Hello.
346
00:11:07,233 --> 00:11:09,333
Hi, what are you guys up to?
How goes it?
347
00:11:09,367 --> 00:11:11,067
Sorry to break up the action
going on here.
348
00:11:11,100 --> 00:11:12,233
(laughs)
Ooh.
349
00:11:12,267 --> 00:11:13,233
I'm about to go
have a rendezvous
350
00:11:13,267 --> 00:11:14,600
with my friend Gisele.
351
00:11:14,633 --> 00:11:15,767
Tell her I said hi.
352
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,767
Think about it.
REN:
Have fun.
353
00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:18,633
(laughing):
Wow.
354
00:11:18,667 --> 00:11:21,067
You guys enjoy yourself.
Uh-huh.
355
00:11:21,067 --> 00:11:22,167
Ren.
Catch you later.
356
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,400
Don't let them let
you be a third wheel.
357
00:11:24,433 --> 00:11:25,967
Oh, please go.
358
00:11:26,067 --> 00:11:30,067
So we can go and
explore, right, Arisce?
359
00:11:30,067 --> 00:11:31,067
Y'all have fun.
360
00:11:31,067 --> 00:11:32,067
REN:
Come on.
361
00:11:32,067 --> 00:11:33,267
I'm staying in my hotel room.
362
00:11:33,300 --> 00:11:35,067
You know this place
better than any of us.
363
00:11:35,100 --> 00:11:36,633
Come on.
LAITH:
Yeah, you know it
better than me...
364
00:11:36,667 --> 00:11:38,933
How does that designate me
to do anything for you?
365
00:11:38,967 --> 00:11:39,933
Do you really trust me
366
00:11:39,967 --> 00:11:42,067
to wander around
New York City by myself?
367
00:11:43,167 --> 00:11:44,433
I just touched down
368
00:11:44,467 --> 00:11:46,167
City full of bright lights
369
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:48,800
New York, home of
all the great night life
370
00:11:48,833 --> 00:11:51,933
Home of Yankees and Mets
and the fly fashion
371
00:11:51,967 --> 00:11:53,800
And be careful with the cabs,
'cause they're driving
372
00:11:53,833 --> 00:11:56,667
Real fast and...
Downtown L.A. is like
a miniature New York.
373
00:11:56,700 --> 00:12:00,200
ARISCE:
Okay, if you say so.
And there's more water towers.
374
00:12:00,233 --> 00:12:02,100
ARISCE: I see a little bit
of myself in Ren,
375
00:12:02,133 --> 00:12:04,733
where I used to be that bright-
eyed, bushy-tailed thing.
376
00:12:04,767 --> 00:12:06,367
Like when the city
used to excite me.
377
00:12:06,400 --> 00:12:08,500
It's kind of nice to be
surrounded by that again,
378
00:12:08,533 --> 00:12:10,567
as much as I don't want
to admit that, 'cause then
379
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,767
I have to admit that I have
feelings. Yuck.
380
00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:14,800
381
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:19,600
This is Columbus Circle.
382
00:12:19,633 --> 00:12:21,067
I wouldn't normally
bring you here,
383
00:12:21,100 --> 00:12:23,633
because it's a tourist trap.
But I know all about it,
384
00:12:23,667 --> 00:12:25,633
because Ford Models is
right back there.
385
00:12:25,667 --> 00:12:26,933
Lord knows
I know all about that.
386
00:12:26,967 --> 00:12:28,067
REN:
New York's exciting.
387
00:12:28,067 --> 00:12:30,700
You get to see all these
new opportunities,
388
00:12:30,733 --> 00:12:32,633
all these big,
huge buildings.
389
00:12:32,667 --> 00:12:34,133
Everything's made out of
different architecture.
390
00:12:34,167 --> 00:12:37,067
Everything looks different.
The colors are different.
391
00:12:37,067 --> 00:12:38,767
I don't see why Arisce could
hate a place like this.
392
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,567
-(laughter) -Anyway,
there's Christopher Columbus.
393
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,833
He did terrible things to people
and somehow got a statue for it.
394
00:12:44,867 --> 00:12:46,767
(Laith laughs)
395
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:48,100
Is someone on the phone?
Oh, no.
396
00:12:48,133 --> 00:12:49,433
You get a text, honey?
Sorry, yeah.
397
00:12:49,467 --> 00:12:51,833
I'm trying to talk to you.
No, I got a text from my ex.
398
00:12:51,867 --> 00:12:54,100
Oh.
I'm planning on hanging out
with her when we're over here.
399
00:12:54,133 --> 00:12:55,800
She was like the first chick
that I ever dated
400
00:12:55,833 --> 00:12:57,933
before I even transitioned
or anything like that.
401
00:12:57,967 --> 00:13:02,167
I really, really
hope to see my ex,
402
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:05,800
because she's never really
seen me, like, physically
403
00:13:05,833 --> 00:13:07,667
as I am now.
404
00:13:07,700 --> 00:13:10,633
I don't really associate
with anybody from my past.
405
00:13:10,667 --> 00:13:13,300
And ever since opening up
to my dad, I feel like
406
00:13:13,333 --> 00:13:15,300
that's something that I
maybe should start changing.
407
00:13:15,333 --> 00:13:16,900
Do you guys want food?
LAITH:
It's a horrible system.
408
00:13:16,933 --> 00:13:19,067
You can have food.
You have the best
system in the world.
409
00:13:19,067 --> 00:13:20,567
ARISCE:
It's a horrible system, no...
410
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,067
I'm gonna go to a food truck.
Bye.
Get out of here, no...
411
00:13:23,067 --> 00:13:24,567
ARISCE:
What do you know about her ex?
412
00:13:24,600 --> 00:13:26,367
LAITH: I don't know
anything about her ex.
413
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:27,633
From what Ren has told me,
414
00:13:27,667 --> 00:13:30,167
she has blocked out most
people from her past.
415
00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:32,333
Her wanting to meet up
with someone from her past
416
00:13:32,367 --> 00:13:34,733
makes this person
pretty special.
417
00:13:34,767 --> 00:13:35,900
So I want to see
who this girl is.
418
00:13:35,933 --> 00:13:38,267
Are we gonna get
to meet your ex?
419
00:13:38,300 --> 00:13:41,733
No.
(laughing):
Why not?
420
00:13:41,767 --> 00:13:43,567
'Cause.
Keeping her from us?
421
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,467
If you ever hung out with your
ex, would you just be like,
422
00:13:45,500 --> 00:13:48,133
"Hmm, I should invite Ren."
423
00:13:48,167 --> 00:13:50,600
Hopefully it's just gonna be
a great experience seeing her.
424
00:13:50,633 --> 00:13:53,367
And at this point,
it's not really
425
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:56,300
my ex anymore, but somebody
that I really, really
426
00:13:56,333 --> 00:13:59,367
did and do still care about.
Now that I'm in New York,
427
00:13:59,400 --> 00:14:01,667
I'm just like, "Hey, I'm around
your general area.
428
00:14:01,700 --> 00:14:03,333
Do you want to, like,
actually hang out?"
429
00:14:03,367 --> 00:14:05,333
That's nice.
I think that'll be nice.
430
00:14:05,367 --> 00:14:08,467
Mm-hmm.
LAITH: I can totally
relate to, you know,
431
00:14:08,500 --> 00:14:09,933
meeting up with someone
that hasn't seen you, you know,
432
00:14:09,967 --> 00:14:11,367
post transition.
433
00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:13,633
You're hoping that they don't
look at you any differently
434
00:14:13,667 --> 00:14:15,900
and that they are accepting.
435
00:14:15,933 --> 00:14:18,900
Just me and her, not you guys.
ARISCE:
Okay.
436
00:14:18,933 --> 00:14:21,533
(laughing): Okay.
I was not begging
to see your friend, okay?
437
00:14:21,567 --> 00:14:23,167
You better stop getting
it twisted.
438
00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,267
Laith asked. I did not ask.
Yeah.
439
00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:30,800
440
00:14:33,367 --> 00:14:36,733
ISIS: I'm so glad we get to,
like, hang out a little bit.
441
00:14:36,767 --> 00:14:39,433
I love Gisele because
she's very New York.
442
00:14:39,467 --> 00:14:40,833
She reminds me of home
443
00:14:40,867 --> 00:14:44,333
and she will always keep it real
whether you like it or not.
444
00:14:44,367 --> 00:14:46,167
I want me, you and Dominique
to get together again.
445
00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:48,500
Because we go so far back.
And Laith.
446
00:14:49,533 --> 00:14:51,100
Arisce.
447
00:14:51,133 --> 00:14:52,733
Are you serious?
448
00:14:52,767 --> 00:14:54,333
I don't know, he, like,
449
00:14:54,367 --> 00:14:56,233
he's playing it down,
and at first...
Oh, you're causing trouble.
450
00:14:56,267 --> 00:14:57,767
No, no, girl.
451
00:14:57,800 --> 00:14:59,133
I've seen a little something.
452
00:14:59,167 --> 00:15:02,133
I'm not-not spreading
any gossip.
453
00:15:02,167 --> 00:15:04,633
Laith acted like it's nothing,
454
00:15:04,667 --> 00:15:07,900
but I seen a little neck-rubbing
action going on yesterday, so...
455
00:15:07,933 --> 00:15:10,533
To me, my advice
is stay focused
456
00:15:10,567 --> 00:15:12,267
and stay away from all
this drama and all that.
457
00:15:12,300 --> 00:15:16,267
So are you getting jobs
through your agency? Like...
458
00:15:16,300 --> 00:15:17,833
I feel like,
I don't want to just
459
00:15:17,867 --> 00:15:19,700
go on castings that
have to do with trans,
460
00:15:19,733 --> 00:15:22,067
because that doesn't
define who I am.
461
00:15:22,100 --> 00:15:24,633
Will he only book you
for trans things?
462
00:15:24,667 --> 00:15:26,067
See, I don't know,
but I hope not.
That's the thing.
463
00:15:26,067 --> 00:15:27,200
Right, right.
It's irritating.
464
00:15:27,233 --> 00:15:28,733
I get it's a niche right now
and it's a fad,
465
00:15:28,767 --> 00:15:31,633
so I get it, but at the same
time it's just like,
466
00:15:31,667 --> 00:15:32,900
can you give me a variety?
467
00:15:32,933 --> 00:15:34,067
Being with a trans agency,
468
00:15:34,067 --> 00:15:36,500
I do feel like maybe
I will be typecast.
469
00:15:36,533 --> 00:15:38,067
But I'm a model
before I'm trans.
470
00:15:38,067 --> 00:15:39,800
I don't want my career
471
00:15:39,833 --> 00:15:41,733
to revolve around
just being trans.
472
00:15:41,767 --> 00:15:44,467
I'm way past that point
in my career.
473
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:46,600
So do you still think
that moving to Los Angeles
474
00:15:46,633 --> 00:15:48,200
was the right choice for you?
475
00:15:48,233 --> 00:15:49,933
I mean, I mean...
476
00:15:49,967 --> 00:15:51,633
it's still so early, you know?
477
00:15:51,667 --> 00:15:53,333
Give me six months and ask that.
478
00:15:53,367 --> 00:15:55,067
I'm definitely hoping
479
00:15:55,067 --> 00:15:56,833
that I did make
the right choice, you know?
480
00:15:56,867 --> 00:15:58,367
I think that...
That's a big move
481
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:00,700
to make the wrong choice.
Sweetie, don't have them
482
00:16:00,733 --> 00:16:03,333
make you do jobs that you
wouldn't do on your own
483
00:16:03,367 --> 00:16:05,433
just because they
want you to do it.
Yeah.
484
00:16:09,233 --> 00:16:11,233
485
00:16:15,133 --> 00:16:16,967
ARISCE: I'm just interested
in shopping right now.
486
00:16:17,067 --> 00:16:18,367
That's all I want to do.
487
00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:19,900
Have you done any shopping?
I haven't done any shopping.
488
00:16:19,933 --> 00:16:21,733
At all?
I've been working.
489
00:16:21,767 --> 00:16:23,367
Those shoes do not
look comfortable.
490
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:24,867
They're not,
but they look great.
491
00:16:24,900 --> 00:16:26,333
I gave up good feet
for good shoes
492
00:16:26,367 --> 00:16:28,667
a long time ago.
(laughs)
493
00:16:28,700 --> 00:16:31,867
(laughing): Okay.
I'd rather be uncomfortable
and attractive.
494
00:16:31,900 --> 00:16:33,833
You can be attractive in a
pair of comfortable shoes.
495
00:16:33,867 --> 00:16:34,833
That's just not true.
496
00:16:34,867 --> 00:16:36,067
Okay.
You're outside?
497
00:16:36,067 --> 00:16:37,067
Hi.
498
00:16:37,067 --> 00:16:38,400
It's so hot.
499
00:16:38,433 --> 00:16:39,700
It's pretty outside.
500
00:16:39,733 --> 00:16:40,933
LAITH:
Where are you going?
501
00:16:40,967 --> 00:16:42,300
Places.
502
00:16:42,333 --> 00:16:43,633
Places like?
503
00:16:43,667 --> 00:16:45,800
Uh...
You learned the city already?
504
00:16:45,833 --> 00:16:47,733
No, I'm going out. Lates.
(chuckles)
505
00:16:47,767 --> 00:16:49,367
All right, enjoy.
506
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,233
Let's follow her.
507
00:16:52,267 --> 00:16:54,500
She's clearly wanting
to keep it private.
508
00:16:54,533 --> 00:16:56,067
Are you sure that's a good idea?
509
00:16:56,067 --> 00:16:57,333
Nothing's private anymore.
510
00:16:58,867 --> 00:17:00,733
The only reason
we're following Ren is because
511
00:17:00,767 --> 00:17:02,200
we have nothing better to do.
512
00:17:02,233 --> 00:17:04,367
Let's, uh,
let's do some stalking.
513
00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,367
514
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,167
I want to see who this girl is
515
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:09,967
and I also think
we need to make sure
516
00:17:10,067 --> 00:17:11,167
Ren keeps herself
out of trouble.
517
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:12,667
She's in a new city.
I don't need to see her
518
00:17:12,700 --> 00:17:13,833
get hit by a car.
519
00:17:13,867 --> 00:17:14,900
(laughs)
520
00:17:19,333 --> 00:17:20,300
Thank you.
521
00:17:20,333 --> 00:17:22,300
You're welcome.
522
00:17:22,333 --> 00:17:23,900
I'm really kind of anxious
523
00:17:23,933 --> 00:17:25,633
right now about seeing my ex.
524
00:17:25,667 --> 00:17:28,333
I dated her before
I transitioned
525
00:17:28,367 --> 00:17:30,967
about three years ago.
526
00:17:31,067 --> 00:17:32,300
I was this scrawny,
527
00:17:32,333 --> 00:17:34,700
skinny, tall, awkward,
lanky dude.
528
00:17:34,733 --> 00:17:38,500
But now it's completely
on the flip side.
529
00:17:38,533 --> 00:17:40,100
How are you doing?
Hello.
530
00:17:41,867 --> 00:17:43,400
Uh, yeah, she
should be coming soon.
531
00:17:43,433 --> 00:17:44,567
Thank you.
532
00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:46,300
Thank you.
You're welcome.
533
00:17:46,333 --> 00:17:48,067
Thank you.
534
00:17:50,867 --> 00:17:52,300
Thank you so much.
535
00:17:52,333 --> 00:17:53,467
And she's sitting over there.
536
00:17:53,500 --> 00:17:54,500
She's right there.
537
00:17:55,733 --> 00:17:56,900
She's alone?
She's alone.
538
00:17:56,933 --> 00:17:58,367
She has a good pair
of sunglasses
539
00:17:58,400 --> 00:17:59,800
and she has no one.
540
00:17:59,833 --> 00:18:02,167
(chuckles)
You're so mean.
541
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:03,600
Sometimes.
542
00:18:03,633 --> 00:18:05,733
I was gonna say I thought
you said I was nice.
543
00:18:07,300 --> 00:18:08,433
What's the real reason
you left New York?
544
00:18:08,467 --> 00:18:10,367
'Cause I know it
can't be just the noise.
545
00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:11,967
You can get used to that.
546
00:18:12,067 --> 00:18:13,333
It was the money.
The money wasn't there.
547
00:18:13,367 --> 00:18:14,733
People pay you in clothes.
548
00:18:14,767 --> 00:18:16,867
That's it? Just money?
549
00:18:16,900 --> 00:18:20,100
550
00:18:20,133 --> 00:18:21,633
It's more than that.
551
00:18:21,667 --> 00:18:23,300
There's always more, but like...
552
00:18:23,333 --> 00:18:24,867
What is it?
That's what I'm asking you.
553
00:18:24,900 --> 00:18:27,633
When I meet someone that
is kind of closed off,
554
00:18:27,667 --> 00:18:29,467
I always think that
there's a reason why.
555
00:18:29,500 --> 00:18:30,900
And maybe that's
what draws me to them
556
00:18:30,933 --> 00:18:32,233
because I want to find out.
557
00:18:32,267 --> 00:18:34,933
Well, my New York, like,
558
00:18:34,967 --> 00:18:36,400
it happens to a lot of people.
559
00:18:36,433 --> 00:18:38,633
You're surrounded by all these
adults who you think
560
00:18:38,667 --> 00:18:39,967
are looking out
for your best interest.
Yeah.
561
00:18:40,067 --> 00:18:41,967
Which, mine were like agents.
562
00:18:42,067 --> 00:18:43,833
And they're all telling you,
"You look amazing."
563
00:18:43,867 --> 00:18:45,667
And you don't realize,
like, how sick you are
564
00:18:45,700 --> 00:18:46,800
until you're out of it.
565
00:18:46,833 --> 00:18:48,833
New York models, like,
they have to be...
566
00:18:48,867 --> 00:18:50,833
11 pounds lighter than me.
567
00:18:50,867 --> 00:18:53,600
I was six-one
and like 121 pounds.
568
00:18:56,167 --> 00:18:58,233
You know, and
I booked everything.
569
00:18:58,267 --> 00:18:59,467
So you get addicted to it,
570
00:18:59,500 --> 00:19:01,067
because you're addicted
to the success,
Right.
571
00:19:01,067 --> 00:19:01,933
and the praise.
572
00:19:01,967 --> 00:19:03,733
I worked a lot, but I was also
573
00:19:03,767 --> 00:19:05,233
working myself
literally to the bone.
574
00:19:07,167 --> 00:19:10,567
I suffered from both
bulimia and anorexia.
575
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,500
I felt comfortable sharing
that with Laith because
576
00:19:13,533 --> 00:19:16,433
he's not like any other guy
I've ever met.
577
00:19:16,467 --> 00:19:19,967
And we're interested
in each other clearly,
578
00:19:20,067 --> 00:19:21,233
so why not open up to someone?
579
00:19:21,267 --> 00:19:24,067
I tried to be that New York
model for three years,
580
00:19:24,067 --> 00:19:25,767
and then...
581
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:26,933
I had to get out.
582
00:19:26,967 --> 00:19:29,067
Like, I was like,
this is not healthy.
583
00:19:29,067 --> 00:19:31,067
This is not working.
584
00:19:31,067 --> 00:19:33,800
I think underneath all
that fierce sassiness
585
00:19:33,833 --> 00:19:36,067
is a, uh, a hurt person
that put up a wall
586
00:19:36,100 --> 00:19:37,333
and this is how she
587
00:19:37,367 --> 00:19:39,200
protects herself
from the world.
588
00:19:39,233 --> 00:19:41,067
Now that she's
589
00:19:41,100 --> 00:19:43,300
opened up to me
and I know her better,
590
00:19:43,333 --> 00:19:45,233
I think it's just strengthening
our relationship.
591
00:19:46,267 --> 00:19:48,500
(phone beeps)
592
00:19:51,533 --> 00:19:54,767
ARISCE:
She's still by herself.
593
00:19:54,800 --> 00:19:56,300
It'd be really sucky
594
00:19:56,333 --> 00:19:58,400
if the person she really wants
to see just didn't show up.
595
00:19:58,433 --> 00:20:00,267
I don't think she did.
596
00:20:03,067 --> 00:20:04,600
I don't usually care
what people are doing
597
00:20:04,633 --> 00:20:06,400
or how they feel.
Yeah.
598
00:20:06,433 --> 00:20:08,200
But she looks kind of sad.
599
00:20:10,233 --> 00:20:11,333
Tell her we're here.
600
00:20:11,367 --> 00:20:12,333
Being stood up
601
00:20:12,367 --> 00:20:14,833
has to be mortifying.
602
00:20:14,867 --> 00:20:16,000
It had to be really hard,
603
00:20:16,033 --> 00:20:17,400
especially for someone
that she knew,
604
00:20:17,433 --> 00:20:19,100
maybe loved once.
605
00:20:19,133 --> 00:20:21,933
And, uh, nowhere to be found.
606
00:20:21,967 --> 00:20:23,900
What's up, Ren?
607
00:20:23,933 --> 00:20:26,000
Oh, yo.
(laughs)
608
00:20:26,033 --> 00:20:27,667
What happened?
609
00:20:27,700 --> 00:20:28,833
Are you still waiting?
610
00:20:28,867 --> 00:20:31,100
Um...
(sputters)
611
00:20:31,133 --> 00:20:33,933
She, um... isn't coming.
612
00:20:35,433 --> 00:20:36,667
(siren wailing)
CECE: We had woken up
613
00:20:36,700 --> 00:20:39,433
to the
terrible news of Orlando.
614
00:20:39,467 --> 00:20:42,133
NEWSMAN: The deadliest mass
shooting in American history.
615
00:20:42,167 --> 00:20:44,000
DOMINIQUE:
It makes me feel angry.
616
00:20:44,033 --> 00:20:45,233
I think I might have
to bow this one out.
617
00:20:45,267 --> 00:20:47,200
ARISCE:
They win when we hide.
618
00:20:47,233 --> 00:20:48,933
I just...
619
00:20:51,967 --> 00:20:53,933
620
00:20:56,933 --> 00:20:57,967
Hi.
621
00:20:58,000 --> 00:21:00,367
Of course.
How are you?
622
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:01,433
REN:
I can't believe those losers
623
00:21:01,467 --> 00:21:03,167
followed me
all the way down here.
624
00:21:04,433 --> 00:21:06,133
I'm okay.
Where's your friend, honey?
625
00:21:06,167 --> 00:21:11,333
She, um... isn't coming.
626
00:21:11,367 --> 00:21:14,967
She's in the hospital.
627
00:21:15,067 --> 00:21:16,600
She's having some health issues
628
00:21:16,633 --> 00:21:19,100
and stuff that
she's dealing with.
629
00:21:19,133 --> 00:21:20,733
It's kind of sad.
630
00:21:20,767 --> 00:21:22,433
In the hospital?
Is she okay?
631
00:21:22,467 --> 00:21:25,067
Um... general anorexia.
632
00:21:25,100 --> 00:21:26,933
Oh, we were just talking
about that.
We were literally
just talking about that.
633
00:21:26,967 --> 00:21:30,533
It's why I left New York,
like, in all honesty.
634
00:21:30,567 --> 00:21:32,067
I had two eating disorders,
635
00:21:32,067 --> 00:21:33,867
both bulimia and anorexia.
636
00:21:33,900 --> 00:21:35,433
How did you
finally get over it?
637
00:21:35,467 --> 00:21:36,800
Actually, like,
638
00:21:36,833 --> 00:21:38,533
I kind of have my sister
to thank for it.
639
00:21:38,567 --> 00:21:40,667
I, uh... she's my dentist.
640
00:21:40,700 --> 00:21:43,433
And she was doing my teeth,
641
00:21:43,467 --> 00:21:45,867
and they were so worn down
that she-- so she told me
642
00:21:45,900 --> 00:21:46,867
she was gonna tell my mom.
643
00:21:46,900 --> 00:21:48,633
I told her, I said,
644
00:21:48,667 --> 00:21:50,567
"Look," I said, "don't tell Mom
if I promise to get help."
645
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,467
Right.
And so I went and got help.
646
00:21:52,500 --> 00:21:55,167
You saw a ther...
you saw a therapist?
Yeah.
647
00:21:55,200 --> 00:21:56,433
Anorexia and
bulimia are both
648
00:21:56,467 --> 00:21:58,267
control diseases,
that when you have
649
00:21:58,300 --> 00:22:00,300
control issues...
You have control
over your body.
650
00:22:00,333 --> 00:22:02,533
Yeah, when nothing
else is in control.
651
00:22:02,567 --> 00:22:03,967
I didn't have control
over my career
652
00:22:04,067 --> 00:22:05,800
or what I wanted
to look like
653
00:22:05,833 --> 00:22:08,233
or how I felt
or how I was treated.
654
00:22:08,267 --> 00:22:10,633
So that was how I had control.
655
00:22:12,067 --> 00:22:14,900
Hearing Arisce actually
open up to me
656
00:22:14,933 --> 00:22:17,467
and be a human being for once,
657
00:22:17,500 --> 00:22:20,567
it's really heartwarming,
I guess,
658
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,233
hearing some compassion
from the beast.
659
00:22:23,267 --> 00:22:25,367
ARISCE: I felt like I could
share that with Ren
660
00:22:25,400 --> 00:22:27,467
because she had
a very vulnerable moment.
661
00:22:27,500 --> 00:22:29,300
We had to help her.
662
00:22:29,333 --> 00:22:31,567
I'm not a nice person, okay...
663
00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:32,967
but I'm a good person.
664
00:22:33,067 --> 00:22:35,400
Nice is different than good.
665
00:22:40,400 --> 00:22:42,067
666
00:22:42,067 --> 00:22:44,067
(police sirens wailing)
667
00:22:44,100 --> 00:22:45,667
NEWSMAN:
Police have identified
668
00:22:45,700 --> 00:22:48,067
a single shooter
in what is being called
669
00:22:48,100 --> 00:22:50,700
the deadliest mass
shooting in American history.
670
00:22:50,733 --> 00:22:52,433
The suspect entered
the nightclub
671
00:22:52,467 --> 00:22:55,067
with an assault rifle
and began shooting,
672
00:22:55,067 --> 00:22:57,967
ending the lives
of at least 49.
673
00:22:58,067 --> 00:23:01,500
911 calls from the victims
are being released.
674
00:23:01,533 --> 00:23:03,200
675
00:23:05,367 --> 00:23:07,433
I just wanted to check in
on everyone,
676
00:23:07,467 --> 00:23:08,900
how everyone's doing.
677
00:23:08,933 --> 00:23:09,900
I mean with everything
678
00:23:09,933 --> 00:23:11,533
that's happening in Orlando...
679
00:23:11,567 --> 00:23:14,067
We woke up
to the news of Orlando.
680
00:23:14,100 --> 00:23:15,333
We were all shaken.
681
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,167
That could very well
have been us.
Yeah.
682
00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:20,567
Easily.
683
00:23:23,867 --> 00:23:26,867
And I really wanted to go
and check in on everybody's
684
00:23:26,900 --> 00:23:28,767
emotional temperature
of where they were, because
685
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:30,267
we have the Hood By Air event
686
00:23:30,300 --> 00:23:33,400
and I know we're nervous
because of this.
687
00:23:36,500 --> 00:23:40,600
I started my transition
in Orlando. When I started
688
00:23:40,633 --> 00:23:42,833
living as a girl,
I moved to Orlando.
689
00:23:42,867 --> 00:23:44,600
That's where I became Cassandra.
690
00:23:44,633 --> 00:23:46,867
It's, uh...
I don't even know what to say.
691
00:23:46,900 --> 00:23:48,933
I'm, like... I'm in shock.
692
00:23:48,967 --> 00:23:51,400
REN: We saw a stream
of it online actually.
693
00:23:51,433 --> 00:23:52,667
Some guy was just streaming,
694
00:23:52,700 --> 00:23:55,067
I could see... people kind of
running out of it.
695
00:23:55,067 --> 00:23:58,200
And hearing the cell phones
going off
696
00:23:58,233 --> 00:24:02,067
from family members calling
that... you know
697
00:24:02,067 --> 00:24:04,067
that phone's never really
gonna be answered again.
698
00:24:05,067 --> 00:24:07,067
ISIS:
It's terrifying.
699
00:24:07,100 --> 00:24:10,233
This is real life
and it's just hard sometimes
700
00:24:10,267 --> 00:24:13,800
to know that you have to,
like, give other people hope,
701
00:24:13,833 --> 00:24:17,067
but at the same time,
like, you're still scared.
702
00:24:19,833 --> 00:24:22,800
It opens the door
for copycats to say,
703
00:24:22,833 --> 00:24:25,600
"Oh I hate... I hate
gay people, too. Let me go
704
00:24:25,633 --> 00:24:28,133
do something terrible
like that."
Yeah.
705
00:24:28,167 --> 00:24:30,800
DOMINIQUE: Someone that's
actually close to me
706
00:24:30,833 --> 00:24:33,167
was in the club at the time
707
00:24:33,200 --> 00:24:36,467
that it, um, occurred.
708
00:24:36,500 --> 00:24:39,533
And... her account of it
709
00:24:39,567 --> 00:24:42,067
is much worse
710
00:24:42,100 --> 00:24:44,600
than anybody could
possibly imagine.
711
00:24:44,633 --> 00:24:46,800
It's heartbreaking.
712
00:24:46,833 --> 00:24:48,800
It makes me feel angry
713
00:24:48,833 --> 00:24:52,633
and... (exhales) and, um...
714
00:24:52,667 --> 00:24:54,967
it's like, well,
when does it stop?
715
00:24:59,433 --> 00:25:02,067
She was having a good time.
She was with her friends.
716
00:25:02,100 --> 00:25:04,500
She was enjoying herself
717
00:25:04,533 --> 00:25:07,367
when the shootings began.
718
00:25:07,400 --> 00:25:10,067
And even though she survived,
719
00:25:10,067 --> 00:25:11,167
it just made it so much more
720
00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,067
personal for me
721
00:25:13,067 --> 00:25:14,400
to actually know someone,
722
00:25:14,433 --> 00:25:17,967
someone that celebrated my
birthday with me, someone that
723
00:25:18,067 --> 00:25:20,633
I would call and talk to.
724
00:25:20,667 --> 00:25:24,667
It kind of knocks
you on your ass.
725
00:25:24,700 --> 00:25:27,633
It's-it's scary,
but reality is, like...
726
00:25:27,667 --> 00:25:29,133
you have to continue
727
00:25:29,167 --> 00:25:31,500
to live your life,
and... and that's how
728
00:25:31,533 --> 00:25:32,800
we're going to overcome this.
729
00:25:32,833 --> 00:25:35,833
Because what people want
is for us to, like...
730
00:25:35,867 --> 00:25:36,867
Disappear.
731
00:25:38,967 --> 00:25:40,700
ARISCE: We're on the right
side of history now,
732
00:25:40,733 --> 00:25:42,933
where we're on the come-up
and we're not going back
733
00:25:42,967 --> 00:25:44,167
in the closet that society
tried to put us in.
No.
734
00:25:44,200 --> 00:25:45,800
Not at all.
And they win
735
00:25:45,833 --> 00:25:47,467
when we hide.
736
00:25:47,500 --> 00:25:49,467
If we all lived in fear,
737
00:25:49,500 --> 00:25:51,400
we'd still be our old selves.
738
00:25:51,433 --> 00:25:53,067
I don't live in fear. I refuse.
739
00:25:53,100 --> 00:25:55,067
CECE:
We're all here.
740
00:25:55,100 --> 00:25:56,200
We have to find strength
741
00:25:56,233 --> 00:25:58,300
in one another.
I'm sorry, but...
742
00:25:58,333 --> 00:26:01,667
I commend y'all for the
strength that you have, but
743
00:26:01,700 --> 00:26:04,967
I don't know if I can
make it through this one.
744
00:26:05,067 --> 00:26:07,267
DOMINIQUE:
Orlando, my personal closeness
745
00:26:07,300 --> 00:26:09,767
to it reminds me of 9/11.
746
00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,333
And when I woke up
the morning of 9/11
747
00:26:12,367 --> 00:26:15,767
and I saw everything
as it unfolded,
748
00:26:15,800 --> 00:26:18,367
I couldn't leave my house.
749
00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:19,933
I just...
750
00:26:19,967 --> 00:26:21,733
(sighs)
751
00:26:26,500 --> 00:26:29,833
For someone to attack people,
and for me to actually know
752
00:26:29,867 --> 00:26:31,767
the people there,
753
00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:33,467
it devastated me.
754
00:26:33,500 --> 00:26:36,133
I've known a lot of loss
in my life.
755
00:26:36,167 --> 00:26:38,400
It caused me to become
agoraphobic,
756
00:26:38,433 --> 00:26:40,933
and that's a battle for me
every day.
757
00:26:40,967 --> 00:26:42,067
And with this,
758
00:26:42,067 --> 00:26:45,133
it causes those things
to resurface.
759
00:26:45,167 --> 00:26:46,867
I...
760
00:26:46,900 --> 00:26:49,200
Going out and
being in public
761
00:26:49,233 --> 00:26:50,500
and not knowing
762
00:26:50,533 --> 00:26:52,267
and already
having that angst
763
00:26:52,300 --> 00:26:53,533
that has been there before,
764
00:26:53,567 --> 00:26:56,567
I-I think I'm-a to have
to bow this one out.
765
00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:57,933
766
00:27:08,633 --> 00:27:10,133
I don't want to go
to clubs. I don't want
767
00:27:10,167 --> 00:27:11,500
to go to any parades.
768
00:27:11,533 --> 00:27:12,900
If some guy just
doesn't like me...
769
00:27:12,933 --> 00:27:14,233
Yeah.
And just decides, "I know
770
00:27:19,067 --> 00:27:19,533
Keep, keep walking
771
00:27:21,167 --> 00:27:23,933
And keep walking
772
00:27:26,733 --> 00:27:28,467
DOMINIQUE:
Today, Cece and I are casting
773
00:27:28,500 --> 00:27:30,233
for Slay.
CECE: Yeah, just clean.
774
00:27:30,267 --> 00:27:32,167
I don't really want
to be here right now.
775
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,333
However,
776
00:27:34,367 --> 00:27:37,633
I know that I have
to be here, professionally.
777
00:27:37,667 --> 00:27:39,933
But being a part of the Hood
By Air show tonight
778
00:27:39,967 --> 00:27:41,667
with all those people,
779
00:27:41,700 --> 00:27:43,933
that's another question.
780
00:27:43,967 --> 00:27:47,300
I would much rather be at home
with Scooter and my husband.
781
00:27:47,333 --> 00:27:49,400
Can I see your walk?
782
00:27:49,433 --> 00:27:51,433
783
00:27:54,433 --> 00:27:56,800
DOMINIQUE:
Oh, my God.
784
00:27:58,833 --> 00:28:01,067
Thanks, Devon.
785
00:28:01,067 --> 00:28:03,433
(sighs)
786
00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:06,900
Are you okay?
787
00:28:06,933 --> 00:28:08,067
DOMINIQUE: I'm fine.
Yeah?
788
00:28:10,500 --> 00:28:11,933
Can I talk to you
for a second?
789
00:28:11,967 --> 00:28:13,533
Are you okay?
790
00:28:13,567 --> 00:28:15,600
No, no, no. I want to talk
to you about something.
791
00:28:15,633 --> 00:28:16,633
Oh, okay.
792
00:28:18,433 --> 00:28:20,600
CASSANDRA:
I know that
793
00:28:20,633 --> 00:28:22,733
Orlando has
affected all of us,
794
00:28:22,767 --> 00:28:26,667
but I know for a fact
that it's hit a really,
795
00:28:26,700 --> 00:28:29,133
really deep spot with Dominique.
796
00:28:29,167 --> 00:28:31,767
And I'm afraid that she's
gonna want to run and hide
797
00:28:31,800 --> 00:28:32,933
and kind of disappear.
798
00:28:32,967 --> 00:28:35,200
I cannot
799
00:28:35,233 --> 00:28:37,067
let her do that.
800
00:28:40,100 --> 00:28:42,267
Girl, what's going on,
like, real?
801
00:28:42,300 --> 00:28:45,233
To wake up and see that
mass shooting and then to know
802
00:28:45,267 --> 00:28:47,400
that there were
people in there
803
00:28:47,433 --> 00:28:51,900
that I... I knew,
it... it's just...
804
00:28:51,933 --> 00:28:54,933
it's wrecked me.
805
00:28:54,967 --> 00:28:56,533
I really, honestly,
806
00:28:56,567 --> 00:28:59,200
I just want to go back home.
807
00:28:59,233 --> 00:29:01,067
But, Dominique, you're too good
808
00:29:01,067 --> 00:29:03,733
to be locked up
in a house, afraid.
809
00:29:03,767 --> 00:29:06,667
You know and I know that
810
00:29:06,700 --> 00:29:08,067
we can't let them win.
811
00:29:08,100 --> 00:29:10,133
It's not even about
letting them win.
812
00:29:10,167 --> 00:29:11,733
Another thing
I was worried about
813
00:29:11,767 --> 00:29:13,367
was walking
through the street,
814
00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:15,500
and some guy just
doesn't like me...
Yeah.
815
00:29:15,533 --> 00:29:17,733
And just decides, "Okay, you
know what, I know you're trans,
816
00:29:17,767 --> 00:29:21,333
so I'm going to put
a bullet in your head."
817
00:29:21,367 --> 00:29:23,067
I just don't want
to go outside anymore.
818
00:29:23,067 --> 00:29:25,067
I just don't want to be outside.
Okay, Dominique.
819
00:29:25,067 --> 00:29:27,267
Right now you're devastated.
You should be.
820
00:29:27,300 --> 00:29:28,300
(sighs)
But I'm saying,
821
00:29:28,333 --> 00:29:29,767
you need to just
take a moment for yourself,
822
00:29:29,800 --> 00:29:31,600
and I get it.
But, Dominique, you...
823
00:29:31,633 --> 00:29:34,667
you have a greater destiny
than cooking meatloaf.
824
00:29:36,433 --> 00:29:37,667
Okay?
825
00:29:37,700 --> 00:29:39,100
Well, I don't make meatloaf,
but... (laughs)
826
00:29:39,133 --> 00:29:40,600
What do you make?
(both laugh)
827
00:29:40,633 --> 00:29:43,300
I get it.
828
00:29:43,333 --> 00:29:45,833
CASSANDRA:
I know work is the last place
829
00:29:45,867 --> 00:29:47,067
Dominique wants to be right now,
830
00:29:47,067 --> 00:29:48,700
but I know it's
where she needs to be.
831
00:29:48,733 --> 00:29:50,767
Thanks, Cassandra.
832
00:29:50,800 --> 00:29:53,233
CASSANDRA:
She needs to show everyone
833
00:29:53,267 --> 00:29:55,533
that, through
all of this struggle,
834
00:29:55,567 --> 00:29:58,333
we will overcome.
835
00:29:58,367 --> 00:30:00,233
And then we have Liam.
836
00:30:00,267 --> 00:30:01,733
CECE:
Hi, Liam, how are you?
837
00:30:01,767 --> 00:30:03,567
Good. How are you?
He's so handsome. Hi.
838
00:30:03,600 --> 00:30:04,733
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you, too.
839
00:30:04,767 --> 00:30:06,400
Oh, wow.
840
00:30:06,433 --> 00:30:08,033
CECE: Transgender male models
are difficult to find
841
00:30:08,067 --> 00:30:09,467
simply because of height.
842
00:30:09,500 --> 00:30:11,033
DOMINIQUE:
Can we see you walk?
843
00:30:11,067 --> 00:30:13,233
Relax your face.
844
00:30:18,100 --> 00:30:19,200
He absorbs that color.
Wow.
845
00:30:19,233 --> 00:30:21,000
DOMINIQUE:
I love that smile.
846
00:30:21,033 --> 00:30:22,500
CASSANDRA:
I think Liam
847
00:30:22,533 --> 00:30:24,533
has some great qualities,
and I definitely feel
848
00:30:24,567 --> 00:30:28,033
that Laith needs
to not just be the only
849
00:30:28,067 --> 00:30:30,967
hot guy in the agency.
He needs some competition.
850
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,067
CECE:
So, Liam, tell us about you.
851
00:30:33,100 --> 00:30:35,400
Um, I am originally
from Des Moines, Iowa.
852
00:30:35,433 --> 00:30:36,767
(Cassandra gasps)
CECE: That's it.
853
00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:37,800
This is... we're done here.
No!
854
00:30:37,833 --> 00:30:39,167
We're done here.
What?
855
00:30:39,200 --> 00:30:40,100
Is someone an Iowan?
856
00:30:40,133 --> 00:30:41,367
I'm from Des Moines, Iowa.
857
00:30:41,400 --> 00:30:42,567
Shut up!
Lincoln High School.
858
00:30:42,600 --> 00:30:44,533
I went to Valley,
so West Des Moines.
859
00:30:44,567 --> 00:30:46,833
You stuck-up rich kid...
I know. (laughs)
860
00:30:46,867 --> 00:30:48,600
I totally wanted to bang
all the boys, though, but...
861
00:30:48,633 --> 00:30:49,867
CECE:
You went to high school?
862
00:30:49,900 --> 00:30:51,600
I dropped out
in the tenth grade,
863
00:30:51,633 --> 00:30:53,033
but really are you from
864
00:30:53,067 --> 00:30:54,200
Des Moines, Iowa?
Yeah, yeah.
865
00:30:54,233 --> 00:30:56,967
Laith who?
866
00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:58,867
CASSANDRA:
I feel that Liam just needs
867
00:30:58,900 --> 00:31:00,667
a little guidance from someone
868
00:31:00,700 --> 00:31:02,500
a little more experienced.
And he's from Iowa,
869
00:31:02,533 --> 00:31:04,300
so we have a lot in common.
870
00:31:04,333 --> 00:31:06,600
Model experience, not the
other kind of experience.
871
00:31:06,633 --> 00:31:08,433
Haven't you ever
seen The Graduate?
872
00:31:08,467 --> 00:31:09,433
(chuckles)
873
00:31:09,467 --> 00:31:11,433
Thank you so much.
CECE: Thank you.
874
00:31:11,467 --> 00:31:13,733
He's handsome,
he's so cute.
875
00:31:13,767 --> 00:31:15,467
I liked Liam.
876
00:31:15,500 --> 00:31:18,633
I wanted to see him as part
of the Hood By Air presentation.
877
00:31:18,667 --> 00:31:20,333
He's beyond cute.
878
00:31:20,367 --> 00:31:21,800
CASSANDRA:
Are you really from Iowa?
Yeah.
879
00:31:23,567 --> 00:31:25,400
880
00:31:28,633 --> 00:31:30,867
ISIS: So pretty, right?
LAITH: It's a great place
to see the city.
881
00:31:30,900 --> 00:31:31,967
Definitely.
882
00:31:32,067 --> 00:31:33,800
LAITH:
We had some time before
883
00:31:33,833 --> 00:31:36,900
Hood By Air, so we decided
to take Ren to Dumbo Park
884
00:31:36,933 --> 00:31:38,667
and have her see
the skyline from there.
885
00:31:38,700 --> 00:31:40,267
Can't even read what it says,
but...
886
00:31:40,300 --> 00:31:42,200
there's a sign up there.
887
00:31:42,233 --> 00:31:44,867
After hearing about Orlando,
it was devastating,
888
00:31:44,900 --> 00:31:47,767
but I think it's brought us
all closer as a family.
889
00:31:47,800 --> 00:31:49,467
So do you like
New York now or no?
890
00:31:49,500 --> 00:31:51,067
New York, I have mixed feelings.
It's always gonna be
891
00:31:51,067 --> 00:31:53,200
a mixed bag.
You know what I mean?
I think you...
892
00:31:53,233 --> 00:31:54,900
you're just holding on
to what you went through.
893
00:31:54,933 --> 00:31:56,900
When you're coming in here
green, it's a rough trick.
894
00:31:56,933 --> 00:31:58,300
(phone ringing)
895
00:31:58,333 --> 00:32:00,800
Hold on.
It's Cece.
896
00:32:02,233 --> 00:32:04,233
I'm amazing.
How are you? You're on speaker.
897
00:32:04,267 --> 00:32:06,067
(laughs)
Hi, Cece.
898
00:32:06,067 --> 00:32:07,100
Hi.
899
00:32:08,633 --> 00:32:10,133
Thanks, Cece.
900
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:15,967
Huh?
901
00:32:16,067 --> 00:32:17,333
(laughter)
902
00:32:17,367 --> 00:32:20,067
Told ya. I always get what
I want. Now you guys know.
903
00:32:20,067 --> 00:32:22,933
(laughs)
904
00:32:24,067 --> 00:32:25,633
REN:
They're f---ing?
905
00:32:25,667 --> 00:32:27,467
That...
906
00:32:27,500 --> 00:32:29,733
(laughing): Ren!
...is alleged.
907
00:32:29,767 --> 00:32:30,833
(laughter)
Okay?
908
00:32:30,867 --> 00:32:31,900
ARISCE:
Last night Laith and I
909
00:32:31,933 --> 00:32:33,100
were at my friend's wine bar,
910
00:32:33,133 --> 00:32:34,600
and, uh, this tabloid comes out
911
00:32:34,633 --> 00:32:36,867
in Next Magazine
about me and Laith
912
00:32:36,900 --> 00:32:39,067
"canoodling."
913
00:32:39,100 --> 00:32:41,567
We had fun.
I think we had a lovely time.
914
00:32:43,667 --> 00:32:45,400
ARISCE: So, when someone
has something to say
915
00:32:45,433 --> 00:32:47,067
and it's all, like,
speculation,
916
00:32:47,067 --> 00:32:48,800
that's a lot of fun.
917
00:32:48,833 --> 00:32:51,133
CECE:
I love you kids.
Love you, too. Bye.
918
00:32:51,167 --> 00:32:52,933
I didn't hear him.
What magazine was it?
919
00:32:52,967 --> 00:32:54,100
Next.
Next.
920
00:32:54,133 --> 00:32:56,567
LAITH:
Dating is something
921
00:32:56,600 --> 00:32:58,367
that I'm not
100% comfortable with.
922
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,767
And then to have that thrown
into the public eye,
923
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:02,933
I just don't feel ready.
924
00:33:02,967 --> 00:33:05,967
So what was that?
That's hilarious.
925
00:33:06,067 --> 00:33:07,833
I don't know.
We got paparazzi-ed.
926
00:33:07,867 --> 00:33:10,300
How?
I don't know.
927
00:33:10,333 --> 00:33:11,367
I don't have
a publicist.
928
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,467
I want--
I want to see--
929
00:33:12,500 --> 00:33:14,333
I need to read the rest
of this article.
930
00:33:14,367 --> 00:33:17,433
Laith, he's so private.
God, Laith is private.
931
00:33:17,467 --> 00:33:18,833
I don't give a f---.
932
00:33:18,867 --> 00:33:20,800
But Laith freaked out.
He was like,
933
00:33:20,833 --> 00:33:22,600
"Can you believe they said
that?" I was like, who cares?
934
00:33:22,633 --> 00:33:24,167
Like, they're not wrong.
935
00:33:24,200 --> 00:33:26,267
We're going with the flow.
Okay.
936
00:33:29,067 --> 00:33:30,833
We're going to go to
the club afterwards.
937
00:33:30,867 --> 00:33:32,633
You're going, too.
No, I'm not.
938
00:33:41,500 --> 00:33:42,400
No matter how hard they try,
they try
939
00:33:43,633 --> 00:33:46,100
They can never hold me down
940
00:33:46,133 --> 00:33:50,300
I do this
with my eyes closed
941
00:33:50,333 --> 00:33:52,500
This presentation by Hood
By Air is very important.
942
00:33:52,533 --> 00:33:56,233
This is the night that
everybody will see Slay.
943
00:33:56,267 --> 00:33:57,300
So this is Jasmine.
944
00:33:57,333 --> 00:33:58,533
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you.
945
00:33:58,567 --> 00:34:01,433
CECE: New York is where
the big dogs are.
946
00:34:01,467 --> 00:34:02,733
I'm surrounded by all these
947
00:34:02,767 --> 00:34:05,200
major fashion players
like Spiegel.
948
00:34:05,233 --> 00:34:09,600
If we get Spiegel as a client,
that would change the game.
949
00:34:09,633 --> 00:34:11,067
CASSANDRA:
They're huge.
950
00:34:11,067 --> 00:34:12,433
And size matters.
951
00:34:12,467 --> 00:34:15,233
952
00:34:15,267 --> 00:34:16,667
ISIS:
We're at Hood By Air.
953
00:34:16,700 --> 00:34:17,833
Like, we're doing
a Hood By Air presentation.
954
00:34:17,867 --> 00:34:20,200
That's pretty
f---ing awesome.
955
00:34:20,233 --> 00:34:21,800
We're going to probably
go to the club
956
00:34:21,833 --> 00:34:23,533
afterwards
to celebrate.
957
00:34:23,567 --> 00:34:25,067
You're going, too.
958
00:34:25,100 --> 00:34:27,400
No, I'm not.
Yes, you are.
959
00:34:27,433 --> 00:34:29,200
What else are you gonna
be doing, Dominique?
960
00:34:29,233 --> 00:34:30,400
With everything
that's happening,
961
00:34:30,433 --> 00:34:32,200
that has happened,
962
00:34:32,233 --> 00:34:33,900
I really just
don't think
963
00:34:33,933 --> 00:34:36,667
it's time for me to be in
that kind of space yet.
964
00:34:36,700 --> 00:34:38,233
With what just happened
965
00:34:38,267 --> 00:34:40,233
in Orlando, the very last place
966
00:34:40,267 --> 00:34:42,400
that I want to be is in a club.
967
00:34:42,433 --> 00:34:44,700
I'm here to work.
I just need to finish
968
00:34:44,733 --> 00:34:48,300
this presentation, and then
I'll be back in my safe space.
969
00:34:48,333 --> 00:34:49,767
But, Dominique, you
have to, like, live.
970
00:34:49,800 --> 00:34:51,233
Like, I understand
that, but you can't
971
00:34:51,267 --> 00:34:52,900
let that control
your life.
972
00:34:52,933 --> 00:34:56,567
None of us are, and it's-it's
a lot for us, too. But, girl,
973
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,833
I mean, the
thing is...
It's... You know what?
974
00:34:58,867 --> 00:35:00,733
Right now with everything that's
happening,
975
00:35:00,767 --> 00:35:03,633
I just don't want to be
in these tight spaces.
976
00:35:03,667 --> 00:35:06,500
I'm nervous sitting here
right now.
977
00:35:06,533 --> 00:35:07,500
Security
978
00:35:07,533 --> 00:35:09,133
is all hyped up.
What if your...
979
00:35:09,167 --> 00:35:10,233
what if your
husband comes?
980
00:35:10,267 --> 00:35:11,333
Come on.
981
00:35:11,367 --> 00:35:12,600
All right.
Let's make a deal.
982
00:35:12,633 --> 00:35:14,433
Okay.
If my husband
983
00:35:14,467 --> 00:35:16,267
decides to meet me there,
984
00:35:16,300 --> 00:35:17,500
then I'll go.
985
00:35:20,200 --> 00:35:21,533
Hey.
986
00:35:21,567 --> 00:35:24,867
There's an after-party,
and all the models
987
00:35:24,900 --> 00:35:27,133
are going to a club
to celebrate.
988
00:35:27,167 --> 00:35:29,133
I really don't want to go,
989
00:35:29,167 --> 00:35:32,933
but I'll go if
you're able to go.
990
00:35:34,167 --> 00:35:36,633
Yes, there will be drinks.
991
00:35:36,667 --> 00:35:38,533
Lots of 'em.
992
00:35:38,567 --> 00:35:40,833
Well, that didn't take you
too long to answer.
993
00:35:40,867 --> 00:35:43,067
There's still a part of me
that is worried.
994
00:35:43,100 --> 00:35:45,833
It's not gonna be easy, but
995
00:35:45,867 --> 00:35:49,467
having Al at my side
will make me feel a lot safer.
996
00:35:49,500 --> 00:35:51,167
All right,
really appreciate it,
997
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:54,067
thank you.
998
00:35:54,100 --> 00:35:55,133
999
00:35:55,167 --> 00:35:58,067
Oh, I love you!
1000
00:35:58,100 --> 00:36:00,933
1001
00:36:00,967 --> 00:36:04,533
LAITH: Liam is a potential
new member of Slay.
1002
00:36:04,567 --> 00:36:06,300
We definitely need another dude
in this thing, so...
1003
00:36:06,333 --> 00:36:08,200
if he comes through,
that'll be great.
1004
00:36:08,233 --> 00:36:11,333
He looks like
an old country boy, and I think
1005
00:36:11,367 --> 00:36:12,333
America would like him.
1006
00:36:12,367 --> 00:36:13,900
1007
00:36:16,900 --> 00:36:18,467
ANNOUNCER:
Ladies and gentlemen,
1008
00:36:18,500 --> 00:36:22,333
presenting Hood By Air.
1009
00:36:22,367 --> 00:36:24,500
1010
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:41,500
CECE: After everything
that had happened in Orlando,
1011
00:36:41,533 --> 00:36:44,533
seeing the models on
the runway-- this was our big,
1012
00:36:44,567 --> 00:36:46,133
triumphant,
1013
00:36:46,167 --> 00:36:48,533
"we're not going anywhere"
moment.
1014
00:36:48,567 --> 00:36:50,500
1015
00:36:53,500 --> 00:36:55,400
(cheering, applause)
1016
00:36:57,733 --> 00:36:59,333
Congratulations.
Oh, thank you.
1017
00:36:59,367 --> 00:37:01,400
Thank you. Thank you.
1018
00:37:01,433 --> 00:37:02,733
Amazing.
Thank you so much.
1019
00:37:02,767 --> 00:37:03,900
They really are.
1020
00:37:03,933 --> 00:37:05,267
Thank you.
Seriously, thank you.
1021
00:37:06,933 --> 00:37:08,467
Please.
1022
00:37:10,133 --> 00:37:11,500
Yeah, please.
1023
00:37:11,533 --> 00:37:13,800
It feels really
exciting to have these
1024
00:37:13,833 --> 00:37:17,367
potential clients
coming to the doors of Slay.
1025
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:18,767
After all the hard work,
1026
00:37:18,800 --> 00:37:20,833
it's starting
to pay off.
It's happening.
1027
00:37:20,867 --> 00:37:22,167
It's happening, it really is.
1028
00:37:23,733 --> 00:37:26,833
I'm so proud of all of you.
1029
00:37:26,867 --> 00:37:29,433
It's been a lot
of work, and...
1030
00:37:29,467 --> 00:37:31,600
this makes everything worth it.
1031
00:37:31,633 --> 00:37:33,933
You're gonna cry.
(laughter)
1032
00:37:33,967 --> 00:37:36,200
Stop it. It's okay
to be alive inside.
1033
00:37:36,233 --> 00:37:39,367
I love you. Thank you for
all your hard work, and...
1034
00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:41,133
to more.
1035
00:37:41,167 --> 00:37:42,800
Yay.
1036
00:37:42,833 --> 00:37:45,233
We have to go out tonight,
and we have to celebrate.
1037
00:37:45,267 --> 00:37:46,767
Thank you, Cece.
All right.
1038
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:48,833
1039
00:37:54,533 --> 00:37:56,200
A job well done today.
1040
00:37:56,233 --> 00:37:59,400
Yes!
(cheers)
1041
00:37:59,433 --> 00:38:01,967
Everybody cheers.
Cheers. Cheers.
1042
00:38:02,067 --> 00:38:05,333
ARISCE:
Ren dances like
a white girl.
1043
00:38:05,367 --> 00:38:06,933
I at least know
eight-counts. I can't
1044
00:38:06,967 --> 00:38:08,333
jiggle nothing if
it don't jiggle.
1045
00:38:13,667 --> 00:38:16,300
Al hasn't shown up yet,
and I'm really nervous because
1046
00:38:16,333 --> 00:38:19,467
I really don't want
to be in a bar in a club.
1047
00:38:19,500 --> 00:38:20,700
I just don't feel it.
1048
00:38:20,733 --> 00:38:22,067
You're really cute,
by the way.
1049
00:38:22,100 --> 00:38:23,700
You better work it.
1050
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:29,567
Cheers!
1051
00:38:35,600 --> 00:38:37,933
Thank you.
1052
00:38:37,967 --> 00:38:39,900
Al shows up, and I'm
1053
00:38:39,933 --> 00:38:41,633
really happy to see him.
1054
00:38:41,667 --> 00:38:43,067
But I know that
1055
00:38:43,100 --> 00:38:44,967
there's something wrong.
1056
00:38:46,667 --> 00:38:47,867
I like it.
1057
00:38:52,100 --> 00:38:54,067
DOMINIQUE:
I notice that he
has been drinking.
1058
00:38:54,067 --> 00:38:56,767
I try to ignore it because
1059
00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:00,733
at times Al feels a bit
inferior to my friends because
1060
00:39:00,767 --> 00:39:03,767
he looks at us as models and in
the entertainment industry
1061
00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:05,067
and he's an auto mechanic,
1062
00:39:05,100 --> 00:39:06,900
so he doesn't
feel like he fits in.
1063
00:39:10,100 --> 00:39:11,600
1064
00:39:11,633 --> 00:39:13,500
DOMINIQUE:
I realized that Al was
1065
00:39:13,533 --> 00:39:15,833
way too drunk
to be supportive of me.
1066
00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:21,200
DOMINIQUE:
I believe that Al is acting out
1067
00:39:21,233 --> 00:39:22,567
because I left New York.
1068
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:26,133
But I cannot have him
act this way
1069
00:39:26,167 --> 00:39:28,533
in front of my coworkers.
This is my job.
1070
00:39:28,567 --> 00:39:31,167
This is-this is my career.
1071
00:39:33,933 --> 00:39:36,500
DOMINIQUE:
Al, please go home right now.
1072
00:39:51,233 --> 00:39:53,233
DOMINIQUE:
Can you not do this?
1073
00:39:57,733 --> 00:39:59,533
You need to back off.
Whatever.
1074
00:39:59,567 --> 00:40:02,133
Calling yourself...
No, no...
1075
00:40:02,167 --> 00:40:04,000
Stop!
She's my friend--
1076
00:40:04,033 --> 00:40:07,533
I'm not gonna sit there while
someone disrespects my friend.
1077
00:40:11,033 --> 00:40:12,300
1078
00:40:17,633 --> 00:40:19,600
DOMINIQUE:
Can you not do this?
1079
00:40:19,633 --> 00:40:21,833
So, after
the Hood By Air event,
1080
00:40:21,867 --> 00:40:23,167
we're all celebrating
at the club,
1081
00:40:23,200 --> 00:40:25,633
and I've asked my husband
to come support me.
1082
00:40:25,667 --> 00:40:28,300
But when he arrives,
1083
00:40:28,333 --> 00:40:30,300
it's quite clear
that he has been drinking,
1084
00:40:30,333 --> 00:40:32,467
so I ask him to leave.
1085
00:40:44,833 --> 00:40:47,033
DOMINIQUE:
I can't believe
this is happening right now.
1086
00:40:51,667 --> 00:40:52,833
DOMINIQUE:
What are y'all doing?
1087
00:40:52,867 --> 00:40:55,133
No.
Can you not do this?
1088
00:40:55,167 --> 00:40:57,067
CASSANDRA:
Al was drunk
1089
00:40:57,100 --> 00:40:59,067
and out of control.
1090
00:40:59,100 --> 00:41:01,467
And if there's one thing I am,
it's a girl's girl.
1091
00:41:01,500 --> 00:41:03,167
And it was my job
to protect her.
1092
00:41:03,200 --> 00:41:04,533
You're calling
yourself that.
1093
00:41:04,567 --> 00:41:06,867
AL: Yes! Because I am!
'Cause I am!
1094
00:41:09,567 --> 00:41:12,800
What? Wait, wait, wait--
what-what just happened?
1095
00:41:13,267 --> 00:41:14,833
Shush!
1096
00:41:16,433 --> 00:41:19,567
Okay, you know what, stop!
1097
00:41:19,600 --> 00:41:21,433
She's my friend--
1098
00:41:21,467 --> 00:41:24,967
I'm not gonna sit there while
someone disrespects my friend.
1099
00:41:25,067 --> 00:41:27,367
But listen,
no matter what,
1100
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:29,667
that's her husband.
Her husband
1101
00:41:29,700 --> 00:41:31,333
doesn't treat her right.
1102
00:41:31,367 --> 00:41:33,367
Hey! Hey!
1103
00:41:35,633 --> 00:41:37,600
CECE:
Cassandra, go inside.
1104
00:41:37,633 --> 00:41:38,600
Go inside!
1105
00:41:38,633 --> 00:41:41,767
Let's go.
Come here.
1106
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:44,300
You should be.
That's all you got.
1107
00:41:44,333 --> 00:41:46,700
Come here.
What's going on, Al?
1108
00:41:46,733 --> 00:41:48,533
Why are you fighting?
1109
00:41:56,833 --> 00:41:58,233
Do you want her
to not do this?
1110
00:41:58,267 --> 00:42:00,300
Do you want her
to not...
No, no, no, no.
1111
00:42:01,300 --> 00:42:03,833
Because I need her,
too, Al.
1112
00:42:03,867 --> 00:42:06,800
Don't make her sad.
You know that I love you
1113
00:42:06,833 --> 00:42:08,700
with all my heart.
1114
00:42:08,733 --> 00:42:12,600
All that she talks
about is you and Scooter.
1115
00:42:12,633 --> 00:42:15,967
But I need you to-I need you
to understand that I'm at work.
1116
00:42:16,067 --> 00:42:17,100
But you cannot...
1117
00:42:17,133 --> 00:42:19,600
Listen, you
cannot expect
1118
00:42:19,633 --> 00:42:21,533
for me to not be me.
1119
00:42:21,567 --> 00:42:23,567
Hey, and me is sometimes
1120
00:42:23,600 --> 00:42:25,867
being the way I am.
1121
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:31,300
Listen...
But I'm not
1122
00:42:31,333 --> 00:42:34,067
gonna let you
f--- up my career.
1123
00:42:34,067 --> 00:42:38,067
Pull it together.
I'm not doing this.
1124
00:42:38,067 --> 00:42:40,567
1125
00:42:44,300 --> 00:42:45,800
Don't regulate what I wear.
1126
00:42:46,567 --> 00:42:47,567
Okay, bye, Laith.
1127
00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,500
I need you to be on board.
1128
00:42:49,533 --> 00:42:51,933
I'm worried about what's going
to happen to my marriage.
1129
00:42:51,967 --> 00:42:53,533
You are going
on a date tonight.
1130
00:42:53,567 --> 00:42:55,567
ARISCE:
Dominique is wasted.
1131
00:42:55,600 --> 00:42:59,067
Cassandra, I'd like
you to sit on something.
1132
00:42:59,067 --> 00:43:01,767
I need to go back
to New York.
1133
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,100
We have a go-see with Spiegel.
1134
00:43:03,133 --> 00:43:04,767
Welcome to the Spiegel
catalog company.
1135
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,067
ARISCE:
Spiegel's wanting to have
1136
00:43:07,067 --> 00:43:09,067
a trans model as the cover.
1137
00:43:09,067 --> 00:43:11,700
Landing this would be epic.
You got the job.
1138
00:43:11,733 --> 00:43:13,467
It changes history.

Did you see that?
That was incredible.
1142
00:43:28,700 --> 00:43:30,767
Amazing.
I love this.
