Original subtitles

Previously on "Hit the Floor"...

Never said "I love you" to anyone.

I never said it to anyone either.

I know I hurt you.

And here you are remarried already.

Another soulmate, I'm sure.

Pete's moving in, he's hired me a bodyguard.

I can't work for you anymore. This is my daughter.

You need the police.

I was trying to reach you,

but you were too busy going behind my back

with Jelena and Terrence.

I'm going into protective custody.

If we're able to buy the team, then we'll trade Derek.

The league is pressing pause

on the sale of the Devils.

Why?

Let me explain.

Rot on the bench.

I love you.

I need someone who's able to be there for me in every way.

Can you do that? No.

Lucas isn't coming. Why not?

'Cause I told him not to.

Pack your bags, Ahsha, you're going to Vegas.

You're staying here too?

You want me to blow on it for luck?

I'd get some sleep before you do more damage.

You've been so stressed.

Ahsha, I killed Olivia.

German, you didn't kill Olivia.

We broke up.

But your mail kept coming.

She sent you a letter.

German...

what did it say?

No more secrets.

I went to her place to see what she wanted,

and she told me about you rigging the all-star vote.

When I told you, you already knew.

Olivia said she'd tell everyone.

What that would've done to you, I couldn't let her.

I tried to talk sense into her,

but she just kept getting more worked up.

Said she was gonna take down Oscar, your mom,

the whole organization.

I grabbed her arm, I just wanted her to stop,

to listen to me.

It just happened so fast.

She yanked away...

and she went over.

She grabbed at the railing.

And before I knew what was happening...

it was over.

I checked on her.

She was gone.

I don't remember driving, but I must have,

because then I was home.

I waited for someone to come get me.

But no one did.

The next morning, everybody was at the groundbreaking.

I thought... something else was going on.

Something bigger than me.

It's been months.

How could you keep this secret in so long?

Nobody asked me about her.

Not one person.

So, I just kept my mouth shut...

until I couldn't keep my mouth shut anymore.

So, this is who you've been in a twist over the entire time?

Yeah. Daddy issues much?

Zero, Jude.

We got a car waiting at the loading dock.

Go, I'll hold the cameras down.

Go, go, go. Come on, guys, come on.

Excuse us. Go, go, go.

Guys...

Got these free from the guy at the coffee shop.

He was real excited your boy swings both ways.

I don't care what Zero swings or where he swings it.

At least Lionel's distracted.

And her smug face

at the league when Derek walked out with her.

Already on it.

I found a couple of things we could use against her.

Well, isn't this lovely.

I can't believe you did that.

Kissing me in front of millions of people.

Now that everyone knows about us,

we can go wherever we want.

Except we kinda can't.

That's 100 interview requests since last night.

Sports Center's had us on a loop

for the past 12 hours.

What are you gonna do?

Every move I've ever made

has been planned out in advance.

Kissing you was not.

But it's all gonna have to wait.

Why?

Because I'm busy.

This is where I need to be, Pete.

I'll have round the clock police protection

until the trial in a few weeks.

I'm not questioning your decision.

I came here to explain mine.

It's a little late to talk about

why you went to the league with Terrence and Jelena.

The damage is done.

You are safest when the Kincades are out.

Isn't that why you went behind my back to the league

and started pushing this "for sale" to begin with?

I didn't start this, Oscar did.

But I'm gonna finish it at his trial.

Until then, since I can't trust anyone on the outside,

this is the safest place for me.

Sloane. Sir?

We need to lock the room down.

Thank you, Officer...?

Halford.

You're welcome to call me Karen.

We're not done talking. When can I come back?

I wouldn't be surprised if someone was following you too.

Maybe you shouldn't come back for a while.

Psst.

When I was his boss,

he would flirt with me constantly.

Old me never did a thing about it,

but new me just made it happen.

You might also wanna hit up a drugstore,

'cause old you already has a kid.

Speaking of, my babysitter's out of town.

I need someone to watch Miguel.

That is a pickle.

Are you gonna be my babysitter, Kyle?

Or do I cancel the most promising date

I've had in months.

Teddy's off hiring a crew

with filming about to start.

So, I guess I'm technically free.

You're the best, you know that?

I want every filthy detail,

and there better be a lot of them.

Thank you.

I heard about your showdown at the league.

Unfortunate, but not fatal.

Safe to assume you have your next move in mind?

Funny enough, we were discussing that this morning,

when we stumbled on something equally unfortunate.

You and Lionel dated.

Nothing changes, or has to change.

She burned me, bad.

It's not something I go around bragging about.

If making Lionel suffer is your goal,

you couldn't have picked a better partner.

That's what we were hoping to hear.

Because we want to do next, we need your help for.

The Kincades own the Devils,

but they don't own the arena that we play in,

which is why Oscar had such a hard-on

for the Hollywood development.

I thought Lionel sold that development.

She did.

Now, all she has is our arena to call home.

Which is why we want to drive a wedge between her

and the guy who owns it.

I mean Farhadi.

Amin's always had problems with Oscar, he's a powder keg.

And he's a friend of yours.

He is.

I'd love to throw some gasoline on that fire.

The prosecutor had these dropped off at your house.

Thanks for bringing it. It's no problem.

We got a guy who's keeping watch on your house,

and he mentioned that there's a couple of suspicious vehicles

that have been making the rounds around there.

So, it's a good thing you're here.

I'm checking on my daughter.

She only communicates by text.

Mine too.

Except she only uses emoji.

Today, she sent me a peace sign,

an alien head and a sushi roll.

I haven't deciphered what that means yet.

Look, I've never met Oscar Kincade,

but he's clearly a bad guy.

But you don't have to worry about him.

You're safe here.

It's actually not Oscar that's throwing me.

It's this hotel.

I have some history here.

I didn't realize.

I can check on alternatives if you'd like.

I'd like that. Thank you.

Devils Nation is about inclusion.

We support Zero and Jude as employees

and as a couple.

Consider that our official statement.

Amin, I didn't think we had a meeting today.

We don't. This'll be quick.

I got a call from a friend of mine.

He told me I could be named

in any number of civil suits

because of Oscar's criminal activity

inside my building.

Illegal recordings, sex trafficking.

I can only imagine what else.

I doubt you'd be held responsible for any of that.

Then you won't mind signing this release,

accepting responsibility for any lawsuits against me.

I've severed all my ties with Oscar.

If you have concerns,

you should take it up with him.

I'm taking it up with you.

We have a contract.

You can't just throw a tantrum and lock me out.

Our contract has a morality clause,

so actually, I can.

If I sign this, it's a pure and legal disaster.

I have a celebrity pickup game here in a few hours.

Amin, let's get together this week

and we can hash all this out.

Hash this! The arena is closed.

Have everyone out in 30 or I call the police.

Lionel, what the hell?

I don't know. Amin got a bug up his ass

and we're locked out of our own house.

I was able to move the pickup game to Venice.

I need you to cover it for me.

You're not going?

People are gonna be talking about this.

They're gonna have even more to talk about

if the next home game is in my driveway.

It's in three days.

I have ten lawyers coming here right now.

If Amin wants a war, he's got one.

So, how many parts still left to cast?

None. I'm told they're all cast.

That's not what I called you over here for.

Well, what'd you call me over here for?

What's that? Not what, who.

Miguel, Raquel's boy.

Like a little Mexican Precious Moments doll.

I said we'd watch him.

Well, I got a dance to get to.

I'll be back in a jiff.

Whoa, Kyle, hold up. I don't do...

kids!

Oh, all day.

A.C., what up, bro? Good to see you.

Man, it's good seeing you.

You know I've been waiting years to get you out here.

Glad you finally used some of that signing bonus, huh,

and got some big boy pants, showed up.

I just hope you brought your 24-karat gold walker with you,

old man, 'cause you gonna need it after we done here.

Just have a seat, man. Don't run. Don't-- don't...

Get out of here, man.

Yo, D, I...

I...

What, what, what?

It's halftime.

Please welcome your Los Angeles Devil Girls.

Venice grit looks good on you.

Zero, what's it like being the first out-starter in history?

When did you hook up with the boss' son?

Is he your boyfriend?

Are you making a statement?

You want my statement?

That's my statement.

I thought you ghosted on me.

Here I am.

Here you are, but German's not.

You get a chance to talk to him?

Not yet. I get it now.

I've been thinking about bonds between people...

what makes them stronger, what tears them apart.

Yeah, I've been wondering the same thing lately

about me and T.

I thought you two looked tense.

What happened?

He... he wants to buy the team

and he was willing to get rid of me to do it,

after all we've been through.

Like, he was my best friend and he sold me out.

I'll never forget it.

People can... do surprising things.

Like in Vegas?

I can't stop thinking about it.

I better head home.

How was the dance?

Good.

Thought I might see you there.

People were asking where you were.

I had to finish the scouting report.

We've been through so much, but nothing like this.

So, I want you to know you can leave.

You want me to go?

No, I don't.

But this is my secret to keep.

You don't have to take it on too.

I know you love me,

but this is above and beyond that.

I can handle whatever you decide, Ahsha.

It's your choice.

When did lunch become San Diego?

Well, that's where the restaurant was.

He drove us down.

He asked if I wanted to spend the night.

I would love to, but... But what?

I mean, could you handle Miguel for that long?

Do you not think that I can take care of him

for more than a few hours?

Of course I do, Kyle.

Can you put him on? No, I cannot.

Raquel, I am entirely capable

of keeping a child alive overnight.

Stay, have a grand old time,

and when you come back,

he's gonna be calling me "Mommy."

It was an accident.

What was an accident?

I was teaching him

how to count cards and I dropped a jack.

I went to pick it up and kind of bumped him.

You punched a child in the face?

No, it wasn't a fist, it was an elbow.

He's at that awkward height.

It doesn't hurt. It may not hurt you, darling,

but it's gonna be a world of hurt for me

when your mama gets home. Should we call her?

No, we should not call her.

With hickeys, you know, the best way to get rid of 'em

is to grab 'em and just give 'em a turn.

You want to twist the kid's face?

Well, when you put it like that...

Yeah, I get popped every few weeks.

Throw a steak on it, put him to bed,

and the swelling should go down in the morning.

Tú sí la amas.

Got an eighth-month edamame or a two-month-old pork chop.

Yeah, this thing's turning purple.

Pork chop it is.

See ya, buddy.

This is nice, right?

Away from the crowd, as a little relaxation time.

These come with a bottle of Jack?

Told my publicist I'd do any interviews

so long as we only talk ball.

You know how many requests I got?

Zero.

You're a starter with two rings.

You kiss a guy in front of everyone.

You know what? I regret it.

I knew you wouldn't leave it to Jackson

to do all the work.

There he is.

Amin, right? You own the arena?

I know who you are. You know I own this club.

Lionel's already sicced every lawyer in Los Angeles on me.

If you're here to hassle me about letting you guys--

Hassle you? No.

We want to buy you a round.

Buy me a--? The bitch needs to go.

Get my friends here a round of shots.

You can get the next round.

Jackson.

This is a surprise.

You look rough.

I just paid ten lawyers to do absolutely nothing for me.

Ten men couldn't satisfy you?

I'm shocked.

Jackson?

How long do you plan on hating me?

Hate implies investment. I'm apathetic.

I've always hated that line of yours.

Great. There went my dinner plans.

Have dinner with me. My treat.

I'll eat crow. You can have the steak.

I'm not gonna sit around and play nice

just for a free meal.

It wouldn't be any fun if you did.

What the hell?

Ahsha, you shouldn't be here.

We moved you out for a reason.

I was worried about you.

I'm fine. Go back to German's.

If you can be here, so can I.

You can protect me. Oh, can I?

I couldn't protect your mother.

She's living out of a suitcase right now,

someplace I'm not.

Our life was not supposed to turn out like this.

This is insanity.

How do you know when enough is enough?

You just have to ask yourself, how much can you endure?

You have a few more grays.

And you have a few less.

Amazing what color in a box can do.

I don't dye my hair, jerk.

No, you just marry older men

to appear sprightly by comparison.

Who pissed you off today, Lionel?

I'd like to send them a thank you card.

Let's have revenge sex.

Revenge?

You're pissed at me, I'm pissed at the world.

Let's take it out on each other.

One night. What do you say?

Unless you don't want to make me suffer.

Revenge sex it is.

Thanks. You're welcome.

100 bucks for some steamed vegetables and rice.

I'd crack open a bottle of water,

but I'm afraid of bankrupting the precinct.

Was this place always this swank?

It hasn't changed at all.

I gotta ask, what happened here?

It's probably part of why I was short with Pete earlier.

It was a long time ago, but I never forgot it.

This hotel is where I walked in on him

having sex with another woman,

Olivia Vincent.

Were you close?

We were. Not that night, though.

That night, I could have killed her.

Best friend sleeps with your boyfriend,

that's below the basement.

And I didn't find them by accident.

I was invited here by Olivia.

She said it was a party.

I never hated anyone so much.

Why would she want you to see?

She wanted to split us up so she could have him,

and it worked.

Olivia took everything from me...

my place at the top, the love of my life.

That sounds like a hard thing to forgive, boy.

Forgiveness is the one thing

Olivia never got from me.

What about this-- her movie? "Ecstasy"?

She must have been on it when she agreed to make that thing.

I saw ten minutes on a plane

and spent the next ten praying for engine failure.

Or a mountain.

You too?

Ahh.

Oh, that woman. 30 properties,

and this is the only one giving me a migraine.

We wanted her out of the arena so bad,

we pulled everything we had

to try and buy the team.

Ah, I wish you would.

You know... you'd be a lot more fun to deal with.

You know, there is something you can do

to make sure you never have to deal with Lionel again.

Over a disagreement with arena owner Amin Farhadi,

this unprecedented lockout has forced Devils owner

Lionel Davenport to relocate tomorrow's home game

to the stadium at UCLA.

Thank you, Cheryl.

Reporting from what was once the home

of your Los Angeles Devils, now we go to...

A college stadium. It's humiliating.

I didn't have a choice.

I hired ten more lawyers. Let's see what they can do.

Do you have any other options?

Besides taking a baseball bat to his skull?

There's something he wants me to sign...

a release.

It'd make this all go away.

So, sign it.

It's complicated.

Signing would put me in a vulnerable position.

You would know better than I,

but I do know business.

And, well, sometimes you have to lose a battle

to win a war.

Should've gone with the edamame.

I thought this was supposed to fix it.

All it did was make him smell like Porky Pig.

Well, kids get bumps and bruises, Kyle.

Just come clean to Raquel.

So she can tell me she was right

not to trust me with Manuel?

Miguel.

Not a chance in hell.

I am gonna show you a little miracle

known as foundation.

That's for girls.

Boys wear makeup too, Miguel.

Watch Uncle Beau. Now.

Tú sí la amas.

Yeah, well, you're up next, kid, so...

All right, you don't have to go this far.

Oh, but I do.

You're punishing me. I am training you.

If you'd been more careful,

we wouldn't be in this situation.

Where's Miguel?

My God.

Well, see you later.

Unless I see you sooner?

Jackson, I... I know I said this would be a one time thing,

and it can be.

But maybe it doesn't have to be.

Revenge sex to rekindling.

That's a big 180, Lionel.

I'm also going to sign that release.

Don't.

You wouldn't just be getting anyone off your back.

You'd be giving Jelena and Terrence

ammunition against you at the league.

Why would you say that?

I've been backing them in their bid to buy the team.

You son of a bitch.

Was all this just-- No.

Yes, it started that way.

I agreed to help because I wanted to get back at you

for how you treated me.

But I don't want that, Lionel.

I want... this.

Now, I'll handle Amin

and I'll pay him off myself if I have to,

that's the least I can do.

Jelena and Terrence would just love that.

Well, they're gonna have to find another backer regardless,

because I can't take this team from you.

I won't.

I got your text. Everything okay?

No.

What you and I have,

I will never have with anyone.

But...

German's been there for me in ways

I can't even explain.

Protected me.

And he's going through something right now

that could break him.

I want you.

But I have to be with German.

So, I need to back away.

But you're not backing away.

Derek.

This has to be goodbye.

What were you thinking-- teaching him to count cards?

A boy needs skills.

He's probably putting them to use right now.

Is that supposed to be funny? A little.

Look, he's got tiny legs, he can't have gotten that far.

All right, we're gonna find him, Kyle.

Just calm down.

Miguel!

You had Beau worried!

Is that curry?

He must have gone up the block to the Indian joint.

Hello, hello!

Hey!

San Diego was gorgeous.

I brought presents.

Kyle, why does my son have a black eye

and a receipt from Tandoori West?

Well-- All my fault.

Uh, the shiner was an accident.

I have never watched a kid a day in my life.

I'm a disaster.

It was awesome!

That's right, it was awesome.

And it was all Beau's fault.

Miguel's had a long day.

I think it's time I put him to bed.

I'll check on you in a minute, papi.

I-- I closed his fingers in a drawer once.

It happens.

Uh, the kid kept saying something to me

that I didn't quite get.

Uh... "Tú sí la amas?"

You love her.

What?

That's what it means.

Huh.

I know you're pissed, and I don't blame you.

You did this amazing thing for me,

and I never thought about how it would affect you too.

I get why you would regret being with me.

I don't regret being with you.

I regret letting everyone else in on it.

I liked it when it was just us.

I don't... I don't like losing that.

You haven't.

Everything we're going through is only gonna make more of us.

Not less.

We're still in this together.

It's still just you and me.

Well, for two people who are in it together...

I sure am alone in this tub.

I don't know if you've noticed,

but all the attention's on you.

Not a peep about Derek Roman.

Really?

There are literally dozens of reporters outside

waiting for us to get out of the bath.

This one's for the Instagram.

Oh, now, you're just goading them.

Yes, yes, I am.

Oh, here he is.

Mind if I crash?

Really?

Sorry, guys, I tried, it's just...

He's a good person.

I know this means we're done.

Why do you think we sent you to her

in the first place?

It was a test. You failed.

While you were working Lionel,

we were working Amin.

You should have given him what he wanted.

Instead, we convinced him to give you

your worst nightmare.

What's that?

He sold us the arena...

for a very favorable price.

We're your new landlords.

People were asking where you were.

I had to finish the scouting report.

Peter.

What a surprise.

A surprise?

They kept me waiting two hours.

Given the situation, I thought it might be inappropriate

for us to meet.

After all, your girlfriend is testifying against me.

All the back patting, the smiles.

I knew you were dirty, but I looked the other way.

Now, you have brought every imaginable horror

to my family, and I have no one to blame but me.

Careful how you speak to me, Peter.

If it wasn't for me,

you'd still be passed out by the pool

with your beer gut and my bitch wife.

You try one more thing with Sloane

and you won't make it to your own trial.

Do you hear what I'm saying?!

Get him outta here.

Doing okay?

Surprisingly, yes.

I actually have time to study up for the trial.

I'm checking on other hotels,

but so far, we haven't been able to track down

any other securable options.

Something wrong?

You said you never met Oscar.

Right.

Then how do you explain this?

Oh, that's Oscar?

You're working for him, aren't you?

Sloane, it's natural to be paranoid

after all you've been through.

You should get some rest.

This hotel wasn't an accident.

You brought me here to stir up feelings.

Conversation about Olivia.

I don't know why, but this is over.

You can't keep me here.

No, but I can take you down to the station.

There, I can detain you legally.

Detain me? For what?

Officers?

Questioning, under suspicion for the murder

of Olivia Vincent.

Next time on "Hit the Floor"...

These are your fingerprints at the scene of the crime.

This is Oscar, he's setting me up!

I'm innocent, Jude.

I need you to help me prove it.

If you hurt him, I'll drive my car so far up your ass,

you'll taste wiper fluid.

You're a rabid dog, and rabid dogs

need to be put down.

German?

Jelena Howard? I'm looking for Terrence.

I have something that belongs to him.
