What are you doing here?

Marcela asked me to come.

I have to tell you something about Patricia.

She was snooping through my office like the FBI.

She says Ms. Marcela sent her.

Did I send you to do something unethical?

Answer!

I'm three months late!

This is a nightmare. I'm even starting to get fat.

It's been confirmed. Patricia is pregnant!

Who could the father be?

Why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?

If I were pregnant, so what?

Nowadays, women only get pregnant if they want to.

I thought she was so cultured with her tree semesters at DUI.

She doesn't even know who knocked her up.

-I got Patricia pregnant! -No!

Are you pregnant or not?

I am! Get used it.

Just like I had to get used to the idea of having a baby

with an idiot like you.

How could you let Ricardo get you pregnant, Patricia?

I'm assuming he's the father.

Of course he is.

Vanessa Palacios?

V&M has never paid that much for a model.

I brought her here. You negotiate.

Armando Mendoza, I've been dying to meet you.

Betty.

I'm going to lunch with Vanessa.

If anyone asks for me, particularly Marcela,

don't say anything.

Speaking of your fiancé,

I introduced him to Vanessa Palacios.

They're probably having lunch together right now.

See you later, Hugo.

Which restaurant did they go to?

I promise I don't know. I swear he didn't tell me.

Oh, no.

Let's take a selfie.

-No, no. -Come on.

No, I don't want to get into a fight with Marcela over it.

Is she really that jealous... and insecure?

No, but I don't want there to be any misunderstandings.

Where's the ring? I thought you were engaged.

-I am. -So where's the ring?

-I'm not married yet. -Thank goodness!

Well, I'm taking one. Your loss.

-Relax. -Relax?

I can't. You have one million followers.

Oh, how nice! I look great!

-All right, let's make a deal. -A deal?

I'll trade you that selfie for another round of sake.

Another round? We've had enough.

Said no one ever. Let's have another round.

I know what I'm saying. I lived in Tokyo.

Let's toast to working together, boss.

Let's.

-Cheers! -Kampai.

-You speak Spanish? -Yes.

Perfect. Who are you?

Are you a doctor, nurse... janitor?

I'm a doctor and the head of this fertility center.

I was just kidding, Doctor.

You're just the person I need. I need your help.

I want to be a mother.

You've come to the right place. We're here to help.

Feel free to make an appointment and we'll meet next week.

Next week?

No, you don't get it.

I need to be pregnant today. Like, right now.

He's not answering.

Where the hell is Armando?

What's the model's name?

Vanessa Palacios.

-She won a title! -Uh-huh.

Don't worry.

Models like her post their location everywhere they go.

Here you are.

I know where they are!

How could Armando take her somewhere so expensive?

She's anorexic!

What happened?

Well?

-Kampai... -Kampai.

I can't believe I get to work with Manhattan's handsomest

and most sought after bachelor.

That's really very flattering coming from you.

I've heard a lot about you.

-Yeah? -Yeah.

-You have? -I have.

Good things or bad?

Some very good,

some somewhat good, and some are very bad.

-You're naughty. -Me? Of course not!

It's a shame I can't add my two cents.

How come?

I don't know if you've stopped liking women, if it's me...

Well, I doubt it's me.

It's not, but I'm engaged

and I'm the president of a company.

I have to behave accordingly. That's all.

-Is that so? -Uh-huh.

-Know what your problem is? -What?

You think too much.

-I do? -Yes.

Why don't you tell me what comes to mind when you see me?

You don't want to know.

Do I make you nervous?

-A little. -I do?

-Do you find me intimidating? -No.

I'll tell you what comes to mind when I see you.

What?

Oh, boy.

Come on. Quickly.

Where to?

We're going to Armando's lunch with that model.

Why do I have to go?

Aren't you his reliable assistant, his right-hand?

You'll help Armando negotiate a contract with her

and I'll be there to see that you do.

Come on! I don't have all day! Let's go. Hurry up.

-Here. -Yes! Thanks.

Things are different now.

Believe it or not, I've matured.

Oh, you have, babe. You're so mature!

-I am. -So very mature. Wow!

Tell me, don't you want to have fun?

Don't you like me anymore?

You can't say you don't, because I can see how excited you are.

What should I do?

Ms. Marcela...

why am I here?

I have a lot to do at the office.

You're here to tell my fiancé we're on our way.

It's what you always do. You cover for him.

I deeply regret you that you believe I'm that kind of person.

You've earned it, Beatriz.

You know, it's a shame that a woman such as yourself,

someone so smart and skilled,

would stoop so low and be an accomplice to a man.

See? Your silence tells me I'm right!

I won't waste my time trying to defend myself.

You've already played jury, judge, and executioner.

I just want to know why you've brought me along.

I need you with me, Beatriz.

Vanessa Palacios is an extremely expensive model

and V&M can't afford to hire her right now.

You're going to make her our lowest possible offer,

and then you'll turn down each of her requests.

Is that clear?

Let's stop. You're dangerous.

And you're too tense, sweetheart.

Why don't we go somewhere a little more private?

-Where? -My hotel's close by.

-What should I do? -Let's go.

Isn't that your assistant?

-Scoot over. -This just got good.

Hi, honey.

-Hi. -What are you doing here?

-What a pleasure. -Nice to meet you.

-Marcela Valencia. -Vanessa Palacios. Nice to meet you.

I'm Armando's fiancée and partner.

She's your partner too. That's surprising.

This is Beatriz. She's Armando's assistant.

We've met before.

-Beatriz, sit. -Please sit.

Thank you.

Oh, cool! You... finished the sake.

Two.

No, I don't drink.

Beatriz, businesswomen must learn to drink.

Yes, cold... to cool us off.

So where are you in terms of the negotiation?

Are you discussing your fees?

Listen, Doctor, I need the baby to look like him.

Or this other guy.

I haven't decided which yet.

Unless one of them is a donor, it can't be done.

That's never going to happen.

Don't you have a catalogue?

Something I can browse and choose a donor

that looks like one of them.

No, this isn't a modeling agency.

We don't have catalogues with pictures.

Besides, the child will have 50% of your DNA too.

I can't say whom it will resemble.

I don't even know why you want a baby.

I want to have a baby because of my strong maternal instincts!

Because my biological clock is ticking

and because I feel like it! How about that?

Just do your job and get me pregnant by next month.

I can't.

Even if all your tests came back perfect,

the procedure can't be done for another month and a half.

There's also a 20% to 50% chance you won't get pregnant.

Really?

What kind of center is this?

You can't tell your clients that.

That's so mediocre.

Plus, how hard can it be? Women get pregnant all the time.

It's a very complicated, lengthy and expensive process.

You must undergo physical and psychological testing.

And I doubt you'll clear the latter.

Please take this pamphlet and read it.

And if you still want to go through with the procedure,

call and schedule an appointment at another center.

Good day.

I mean, come on. Temper, temper. What's wrong with her?

$10,000 to be inseminated and with no guarantees?

I mean, come on, Doctor!

Do you offer payment plans?

Some interest-free months or coupons?

-Cheers! -Cheers.

-Kampai. -Kam...

Is everything okay, Betty?

I'm sorry, it's just that... it's very strong.

Well, you don't drink.

-Yes, I told you so, but... -You'll love it.

A very famous actress once said,

"There's no such thing as a difficult woman but one who doesn't drink."

-That's so good. -Isn't it?

Some women don't need that excuse to be easy.

Then let's toast to easy women,

who don't need excuses and who love to have fun.

-Cheers! -Cheers.

Let's get down to business.

Have you discussed the terms of Vanessa's contract?

Since when do you worry about the models' contracts, honey?

Since you implemented an austerity policy, honey.

That's why Beatriz is here.

She'll tell us if we can hire a model that's so sought after, like Vanessa.

Especially considering the situation at V&M.

Yes, I understand, but I get the last say.

She's an influencer with lots of followers

and she can bring in a large crowd.

Oh, that'd be amazing, but we can't splurge right now.

Do you mind showing me her contract?

Not at all. Go right ahead.

-Here it is. -Thank you.

Betty. Beatriz.

-Hot damn! -What?

This is a very large number.

Unfortunately, it's outside our budget, Mr. Armando.

So what would be within your budget?

I've already reduced my fees quite a bit.

Something in the ballpark of...

half of this sum.

Oh, I'm sorry.

No, I'm so sorry.

It's a shame we can't hire her.

Tell you what, I'm back from Tokyo and we're having fun.

Armando's a gentleman so...

Cheers! Let's toast to that!

You'll be the queen of the catwalk.

Obviously! Kampai!

Yes, Dad, I was offered a job at the Kuala Lumpur embassy.

No, of course not!

I can't be a diplomat to a place I can't even find on a map.

I don't even know what they eat.

No, but...

Hey, Daddy, I'll call you back. Bye!

I know you!

Oh, just what I needed.

-Can we take a selfie? -Patricia, don't be tacky.

She needs to meet with Smith. Betty, take her over.

Follow me, miss.

It's just one selfie. What?

What happened?

I'm being put to the test.

Guess who's going to be working on the runway show tomorrow?

She's also hitting on me, by the way.

No idea. Who?

Vanessa Palacios.

-No! No, no! -Yes!

Why are you so lucky? Why didn't you introduce us?

You're dealing with Patricia's pregnancy.

You should've still introduced us.

She's probably very expensive. How will we pay her?

Don't worry about that. We offered very little money, but she agreed to take it.

What? How?

Betty told her what we could afford

and Vanessa agreed just to spite Marcela.

It's a long story.

Betty did two very important things:

She got a deal with a model

and she's helping us meet payroll.

Another loan?

But that's not all.

We paid our employees with BAR's profits.

She's already doubled the money we gave her.

Thank you. I was so thirsty.

This always happens when I drink too much sake.

Beatriz, is Marcela always this protective of her fiancé?

Does she have so little faith in Armando?

I don't know.

When are they getting married?

I don't know.

For Armando's assistant, you know very little about his life.

Or maybe I don't want to gossip about his personal life.

I see. You're one of the quiet ones.

Do you at least know if I'll be able to

meet with your boss alone later on today?

You have to meet with Mr. Smith. Would you like more water?

You're not going to answer?

All I can say is that Mr. Armando

and Ms. Marcela love each other.

They're in love and will get married soon.

I wouldn't be so sure.

Let's see how long that lasts.

More water?

Yes.

How could that hairy and insignificant person

double the initial investment in so little time?

Maybe she's not as insignificant as you think she is.

-How did she do it? -I don't know.

I think she's investing in the stock market.

While we keep picking up more debt,

the gargoyle doubles the money she brought you.

I mean, let's be real here.

She brought that money and placed it at your feet.

Your crazy fan has been the best deal you've ever made.

Told you!

What's best, BAR has an amazing relationship with banks.

Betty shows up at any bank and asks for a loan and they deliver.

She asks for another loan, and they deliver.

I don't know how she does it.

How does someone make so much money so fast?

I have no idea, but she's a genius and we're not.

Okay. Let's focus.

Never tell her that. Never ever.

She might come to believe it and leave us.

V&M has never worked with a model of your stature.

If you keep paying so little, I doubt you ever will.

If it were up to me, I'd pay all of your expenses.

Oh, really? Well, I'm going to need you to pay

for my first-class plane tickets and my hotel suite.

I will. No problem.

V&M is a family oriented company that spoils its employees.

Oh, Mr. Smith, you're so sweet. I can tell you're a just man.

How long have you been working for the company?

I'm a key member of V&M.

I've seen people come and go...

Is that so?

So you know the Valencias and the Mendozas very well.

So you've been invited to Marcela and Armando's wedding?

I like to think I have, but they haven't set a date yet.

-No? -No.

How come? When did they get engaged?

Just a few months ago, right after Mr. Armando became president.

Would you like to go to the wedding?

Would you like to be my date?

Marce, tell me what happened.

Why were you and Armando with Vanessa and Ugly Betty?

Don't tell me you're doing a remake of Beauty and the Beast.

I hate her, Patricia. I hate her!

Which one, Marce? Ugly Betty or Vanessa?

Both of them! I hate them both!

Don't tell me you caught Armando fooling around with Vanessa.

No.

Thankfully, I only caught them having lunch.

Well, so long as she's not on the menu, everything's fine.

I'm sorry, but you should be used to this by now.

In the fashion world he'll always be surrounded by beautiful women.

I know, but this woman is the most beautiful woman ever!

Have you seen her?

I though Hugo was my friend. How could he do this to me?

I hate him too! Traitor!

I understand you so well. I have so many problems too.

I hadn't told you... because I'd forgotten.

Patricia, you're my best friend and you know you can tell me anything.

All right, but promise you won't judge me.

What did you do?

I... did some math...

someone else could be the father of my baby.

What?

Marcela, you can't judge me.

I was going through a terrible time

after Ricardo kicked me out... and I was weak. I did it to spite him.

I cannot believe you, Patricia.

I spoke to Ricardo and I put him on the spot,

and now it turns out someone else could be the baby's father.

Do you at least know who it is?

Of course I know who it is! Who do you think I am?

Who is it? Tell me his name.

Look, Marce...

I know the guy's name. Of course I do.

But it's not like it matters. He won't take responsibility either.

Given your lifestyle, no one will.

Don't talk to me like that.

Patricia, I'm serious. What are you going to do?

You can't force Ricardo to take responsibility for that baby.

Or the other alleged father.

See, Marcela? You're judging me!

That's why I didn't want to tell you. I knew you would.

No, I'm not judging you. I'm worried about my nephew.

I am too. Of course I am.

Honestly, none of this is my fault.

I'm a victim of men.

It's not my fault they're the way they are.

They're sweet talkers who seduce us,

get us into bed and get us pregnant.

Know what I think?

You got pregnant on purpose.

You thought it was the answer to your financial situation.

What's the matter with you? Who do you think I am?

A gold-digger looking for her meal ticket for life?

Shameful!

Listen, Patricia.

Before you do anything,

have the baby take a DNA test.

Do you promise you will?

Okay.

Don't tell anyone, Marcela.

I'm really embarrassed about all this.

Think of the baby.

Betty.

Now that we're alone,

tell me, why'd you bring Marcela to the restaurant?

I didn't. She took me with her.

I told you not to tell anyone I was meeting with Vanessa.

I didn't!

Then how did she get there? Someone must've told her.

Sure, but it wasn't me.

Besides, believe me when I say it's impossible

to go unnoticed when you're with a woman like that.

I trusted you and you almost got me in a lot of trouble.

No, I didn't almost get you in a lot of trouble.

Besides, I thought nothing happened.

I thought you were going to hire a model.

She agreed to our fees and that's that. Nothing happened.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a lot of work to do.

Hi, Danny!

Listen, they are from the law firm that represents me.

We're here to discuss an increase of our son's child support fees.

We don't think $30,000 is enough given how much you make.

We believe $100,000 would be better.

No, no.

Some wine.

Oops!

To me and my smarts! Oh, yeah!

I toast to all the people who think blondes are dumb.

They haven't met me yet.

I just need to come up with $10,000 for the insemination.

What's wrong with these people? $10,000?

Oh, look! He finally turned up.

I've been thinking about you.

Uh-huh.

Me or my yacht in the Greek Isles?

Well, yeah, that too. I can already see myself there.

When are you coming to New York?

When am I coming to New York? When I win the lottery

and have so much money stacked in front of me that you can't even see my face.

After I close a very important deal in Italy.

As you know, I'm a businessman.

And a millionaire.

I hope you can stop by soon. I need to be spoiled.

Oh, I'll look after you, comfort you, protect you...

Tell me, what's wrong?

Nothing major. I just need to get back at two bastards,

and in order to do that, I need to get pregnant.

Nothing crazy.

That's enough, Patricia. Let's see.

Nothing important.

I doubt you'd see it as a problem.

You can trust me.

Maybe I can...

help you.

Of course you're going to help me!

I have a cash flow problem.

Let's see.

Oh, you lucky, girl! I have $100 in my wallet.

How much are we talking about?

All men are the same. They're all so cheap.

Nothing really. $10,000.

What!

That's a lot of money!

I knew it.

So what did you want to talk about?

Can't I ask you out for drinks?

-Cheers. -Cheers.

Will you be at the launch of the new collection tomorrow?

Of course.

Speaking of V&M, how's Patricia?

I was very shocked to learn of her pregnancy.

Yes, we all were. No one was expecting it.

I didn't know she'd started dating again after the divorce.

Well, I did.

-Yeah? -Ricardo.

It's nothing serious and they haven't been close lately.

Oh, yeah? Then he's the father?

I don't know.

Between you and me, it seems there's someone else.

A secret lover. I think he's the father.

Do you know who he is?

She didn't tell me his name. I don't know who he is.

He's probably someone very notable.

What's this?

Hi, Mom. How are you?

What's this?

Why do you keep a picture of you and your boss under your pillow?

You're not in love with him, are you?

Why are you going through my things? Please respect my privacy.

I wasn't going through your things.

I was going to tuck you in and I found it under your pillow.

-I won't do it again. -Please don't.

The picture probably slipped out of my bag.

Mr. Armando and I went to a restaurant for a meeting

and that's where the picture was taken.

Nothing wrong with that.

It's wrong to keep it under your pillow

and that you get defensive when I ask you about it.

I'm not getting defensive because of the picture

but because you doubt my work ethic.

I'm very professional and Mr. Armando is my boss.

Besides, he's getting married.

And I'm probably the last woman he'd ever set his eyes on.

All right, sweetie. All right.

No need to get upset. It was just a question.

Yes. I'm sorry I yelled at you.

But I think I'm too old for you to tuck me in.

You're right.

-Hey. Hi. -Hi.

Armando, I want you to be honest with me.

What happened today with Vanessa?

Why'd you meet with her alone and didn't take my calls?

That's just how it happened and I left my phone in the car.

You saw how nothing weird happened at the restaurant.

Listen,

I trust you... but I don't trust her.

Why would she sign for less than what she wants?

-No one does that. -I know.

Why is that slut calling you?

Don't tell me you're a clause in her contract?

I'm going to answer and tell her...

No, Marcela. Neither one of us will answer.

Let's leave her alone. Let's enjoy our time together.

Don't touch me!

-Let go! -Why?

-I don't want to. -Please.

Listen, I want you far away from that woman,

-okay? -Okay.

She's going to walk the show and then leave V&M.

-Is that clear? -Yes, that's how it'll be.

-You sure? -I love it when you get jealous.

You promise?

You'll kick her out?

What?

My Patricia's pregnant?

You're not just saying it so I'll get over her, right?

No, she's not your Patricia

and I'm not saying it so you'll get over her.

The Squad told me the rumor and I figured you'd want to know.

Yes, but you said she was single.

Yes, but she went out with Mr. Ricardo, VP of Development.

I didn't know about that,

but the Squad claims he's the father.

-Oh, Betty! -What?

Are they getting married?

-Nah. Well, I don't think so. -You don't?

I doubt Ricardo will take responsibility for the baby.

So that's why she needs money. To support it.

-What? What money? -What? Oh, nothing.

Betty, having children means incurring in a lot of expenses.

You know, diapers, the pediatrician,

the breast pumps.

So much money, Betty. Poor, Patty. Poor thing.

I don't understand how you can pity her.

You used to hate her before. Who's your friend?

Did you forget that she stole my report?

You should learn to forgive.

I'm going to focus on teaching you forgiveness.

Tell Patty that if the father of her child won't step up, then I will.

I could even give the baby my last name.

Nicolas, please! Quit being so ridiculous!

She doesn't even know you! She doesn't know you exist!

How can you help her? She only cares about the money!

Look at these pictures of Vanessa!

And to think she'll be so close, but I can't go near her.

-Marcela forbid it. -Of course she did.

Amazing!

Armando was just telling me BAR is on a nice roll.

Good morning, Mr. Ricardo. Nice suit.

I wouldn't call it a nice roll. It's not a game of luck.

We're doing calculated, low-risk investments

that are yielding great results.

Before you go back to worrying about the runway show,

here are some important BAR documents.

You need to sign off on the new loan.

Of course. Right away.

All done. You can leave early today.

No.

The world and this company won't stop moving

because of a runway show. I have important things to tend to.

Enjoy the show, gentlemen.

If looks could kill, you'd be dead, bro.

Now both Marcela and Betty Boop are jealous.

Betty, jealous?

Oh, please! Don't be stupid.

Yeah, no, no.

Stop, don't.

I finally got the catalogue! It looks so pretty and shiny!

When you buy makeup,

lotions and things to make you pretty,

I get points that I can exchange for other products.

So what will it be?

Oh, I love this line!

Yes, I love this line. It has a great vanilla scent.

-So you're taking some? -I'll have one of each.

Do you have vitamins? I need more stamina at the--

I mean, powder. Vitamin mineral powder.

I want make up. You know, lipstick.

Here you are.

-...this one. -Yes?

Yes?

Do you notice anything?

No?

My watch.

It's a smart watch that's also linked to my cell phone.

You don't own anything like it, do you?

No, you can't afford it.

I bought it with my last paycheck

and I had a little left over to get whatever I want.

What are you looking at?

It's none of your business.

Give me that!

Ma'am, you are... incredible.

It's wonderful to see you selling these products.

Know who does this? My grandma's friends.

They're broke, unemployed and single.

But since I'm so cool, I'll help you by buying something.

I'd rather eat this before taking your money.

The whole thing! Watch me eat it.

Animals. And then you complain when your husbands leave you.

Hello! Why are you still here?

The runway today wouldn't have been possible without you, so come on.

I can't, Mariana. You know Hugo hates me.

If he sees me at the venue, he might cancel the event.

If he knew you only do your job.

I know, but that's just how he is.

Hey, is that hanger here yet?

What hanger?

-Jenny? -No, the other one.

The goddess of Olympus.

The queen of the catwalk.

The most expensive model on the face of the earth.

The beauty queen.

So much bad juju, babe.

If that's not hate, I don't know what is, darling.

Did something happen between you and the beauty queen?

No.

And I don't hate her...

that much.

It's just that she's shameless.

You haven't seen her in action.

She's interested in Mr. Armando's businesses

and in something else.

That's terrible for Ms. Marcela.

If she finds out about this, I'm sure there'll be trouble.

Plus, it could be an expensive problem for V&M.

-Patricia. -Let me go.

-Just hear me out. -No, I don't want to.

I have nothing to say to you.

I have something very important to say to you. Please sit.

Listen, I'm done being humiliated.

I don't deserve that, and neither does your baby.

Besides, babies can hear everything. Remember that.

I don't want the baby to be born traumatized

or with a rejection and abandonment complex.

I didn't sleep last night. I kept thinking about this.

I want you to know that I'm going to step...

I knew you-- What did you say?

I'll step up. Did you hear that?

We're going to have a baby.

We're getting married!

You and I are getting married!

I'm going to be Patricia Calderon.

Yes, yes!
