I already innately
see you as a leader.

It was a great week for Joe

when Leva finally gave him
a promotion.

We can make you
the director of VIP.

And it got even better
when Mia gave him

a little something extra.

[screaming]

Oh, my God!

Hello, lady in black.

Meanwhile, my week went downhill

with the return of
a former employee.

I need an espresso martini.

Who Brad cheated with

while he was dating
my roommate. Ugh!

I'm having fun right now.

Let's wrap it up, Reagan.
We're on the clock.

- Whatever.
- But to my credit,

I tried to put
the past behind us.

Who said I have
a problem with Reagan?

- You!
- You!

Too bad
no one else got the memo.

And Reagan's
birthday celebration

turned into a courtroom drama.

Suspicion, evidence, confession.

His daddy is a lawyer!
Look at him go.

You were licking
peanut butter off his dick

and that's cool with Maddi.

[dramatic music intensifies]

You know what's funny?
I hate peanut butter.

♪ I know a place
where we can go ♪

♪ Oh, are you coming out
tonight? ♪

[upbeat music]

♪ Yeah

♪ So you think you wanna
fight with me, huh ♪

- [phone ringing]
- Please stop.

♪ So you think you wanna
fight with me, huh ♪

♪ So you think you wanna fight

Sh--.

That was a lot.

- Ugh.
- That was a lot.

It was a lot. I just
didn't expect Brad to do that.

That was, like,
really----ing sh--ty.

And he just wanted
to be an asshole.

♪ So you think you wanna
fight me, yeah ♪

But everyone
has their past, but...

their past isn't covered
in peanut butter.

Touché.

[upbeat music]

Of course. Of course. Okay,
I'll see you soon. Bye.

I'm gonna plug in.

I always call Republic
a well-oiled machine

because, I mean,
everyone goes in

and there's a job to do
and it's like wheels in motion.

But if the team's not
getting along at Republic,

the guests can read this energy.

So it's really important
to walk in

every day, like, super positive

and ready to work
and to be a part of the team.

And when you're not, everyone in
the----ing room can feel that.

[upbeat music]

- Hey.
- Hey.

You're-- you're
crushing it tonight.

You keep sneaking in there.

Yeah. So I mean, last night was
a----ing rollercoaster

and I like, honestly it's been--

it's been----ing with
my head today.

I've never yelled at you
like that.

You've never yelled at me
like that.

Be a----ing man.
Be a----ing bro.

Be a man, Joe.

It-- it was
the----tiest feeling.

I think we both got rattled.

Yeah.

And how we should
be de-escalating--

[bleep] yes!

- Great night.
- Yeah, table seven. I saw that.

My thing is,
I-I feel like that was

- your chance to tell the truth.
- No, it was a horrible,

horrible time
and place for that.

At a bar, not at work?

At work is
a horrible time for it.

On her birthday? I don't care
if you don't like Reagan.

She's so, like--
I'm still friends with Reagan.

No matter what
or who's yelling back

or who said what first
or whatever,

we are in the business
of deescalating as leaders.

That means when we're
going out there, you can't be--

- I wasn't--
- Yelling at--

- Are you----ing kidding me?
- Yeah, Joe, you yell at me.

You guys-- you guys were
yelling first and it's like,

it's so,
it blows my----ing mind.

Like, when Reagan came back
it was Leva's decision.

You're just not being
a team player right now.

And I'm just saying
common denominator is

kind of just Trevor.

Then don't like him.
Then don't like him.

But the thing is,
the more you dig at Trevor,

the more it pushes me away.

See what I'm saying?

Yeah.

I think I'm more sad
than angry in this point.

I feel like I'm watching
me and Maddi's relationship

disintegrate
right in front of me

and I feel like
it's because of Trevor

and it's actually heartbreaking.

Do you see what I'm saying?

- Is your name Joe?
- Yes.

Okay.
So is there any tables inside?

We're the bridal party.
They just got married tonight.

So I was trying
to do something for them.

- How many of you are there?
- There's 10.

- Perfect.
- There's not many.

Are they here right now?
I wanna go and meet 'em.

- Yes.
- Let's go inside.

- I got the door.
- Hey, we'll do the chat later.

No, I got you. Work comes first.

[upbeat music]

Can we get
one bottle of champagne?

Your best friend was sleeping
with your boyfriend.

Brad's the kind of guy that
would [bleep] your girlfriend

and then hide.
And he would show up

and smile in your face
the next day.

That's what he does.
That's what he did.

They wanna come for our past.

Bitch,
I'll talk about your present.

Bitch, I'll
talk about your present.

I'll talk about your present.

All right. I got to work.

All right. Bye.

Being a gay man,
dating in Charleston

is literally impossible.

I mean, a lot of men here

are not accepting
of their sexuality

and they still live in,
you know, secrecy.

Hi.

How are you?

I'm too old and ready
to have a life with someone

to be a secret.

You smell like saltwater.

Little gym-ey, a little sweaty.

I did meet someone new on Hinge.

Have you seen this--
me in glasses before?

Yeah. I like it.

I think I really like him.

There is one red flag.

He just got out of an eight-year
relationship with a woman.

- Can we go back to my house?
- Yeah.

Okay. Let's go home.

What's going on tonight?

Thursday night
on King Street, you know.

- Maddi's DJing.
- Yeah.

So how are you
feeling this week?

I'm feeling great.

You know, especially like
I wasn't expecting,

you know,
my promotion to come that soon.

- Right.
- And that was, like,

the first like real promotion
I've ever gotten.

So that felt really good.

But, you know,
you can't do this stuff, right,

when you're a manager?

It's you, like,
fully eating face with Mia.

You are-- you're having
a good time. I get it.

You're young, you're whatever.
But like what did I talk about?

Do you also realize as
a manager you're not gonna

be able to, like,
date anyone here?

Well, I have gone this far
without doing it.

Yeah.

Tell me that's
not gonna happen again.

- It won't happen again.
- Who I hold most responsible

are people who are
in managerial positions.

And then secondary, like,
act like you have some sense,

act like you have this
much sense. This much sense.

Manager Joe.

Now that I have
new responsibilities,

can't be doing that. I'm sorry.

Coming up.

I don't worry about you,
not as much as I used to.

I am terrified to
tell my dad that I like men.

Ugh!
I need a margarita immediately.

- Me too.
- That's the only way

to beat my hangover.
You wanna do Triple Dipper?

- Let's do it.
- You like jalapenos?

- Oh yeah.
- Hey.

My name is Ella.
I'll be your server.

Can I get y'all started off
with something to drink?

- Pineapple habanero margarita.
- Yeah.

And I'm gonna do the same.

- That'll be right out.
- Thank you. Biggest you have.

Biggest you have.
I need that immediately.

I met Kala at Republic
a long time ago.

I thought she was cute.

Gave her my number.
Nothing much came of it.

Then I started
doing Body by Brad.

Up. Good.

Down. One more. Nice one.

- If the legs aren't shaking.
- The booty ain't baking.

She reached out trying
to work out with me

and next thing you know,
we're making out.

So how's your training going?
Your clientele?

It's going good.
I mean, I'm glad that

I'm not training you anymore.

It was good
while it lasted, I guess.

- It was good while it lasted.
- Yep.

Kala was a great client.

It was kind of a costly loss,

but I think she's
definitely worth it.

Now, me and Kala
work out on the side together

and instead of
paying me with money,

we came to a different
agreement. Still profiting.

I'm sorry I had to stop
training you.

Yeah, it's okay. [laughs]

But I don't sleep
with my clients, so.

Kala is genuine,
kind, beautiful, of course.

Less drama.
No headaches, just good times.

Joe's gonna
come meet up with us.

He's been shopping.

We went out
for Reagan's birthday

and then we met up with Maddi.

Yeah. I kinda, like,
lost my cool.

You're more upset and focused on
someone else's relationship

when your best friend was
sleeping with your boyfriend.

What the [bleep]?

Maddi thinks that me
and Reagan slept together

while she had a boyfriend.

Yeah. So.

- That story?
- You heard that story?

- Yeah.
- Yeah. So--

There was
a lot going on that night.

It was another-- it's not
even a rumor, it's a fact.

Emmy and Trevor had
hooked up in college.

Emmy was licking peanut butter
off Trevor's dick.

And why was she using
peanut butter? [laughs]

Like, whipped cream.

- Yeah.
- Like, you know,

- chocolate syrup.
- She must--

she must love-- [laughs]

I wonder if there's,
like, Jiffy.

- Bradley.
- Hey. What up?

- What's up, dude?
- You look good.

Good to see you.
Sorry, I didn't wanna--

- You look this nice shopping?
- I'm going straight to work.

What's up? This looks amazing.

Sorry, I didn't mean
to crash your date but

- I was like so close to here.
- It's okay.

Do you want any chips with it?

Yes.

I'm kinda nervous
about this week

just considering
what just transpired.

It's just a----ing rumor.

Joe, you were the first--
you were the first person

to come to me and said--
and I heard it.

I----ing heard it in Atlanta.

Maddi was basically asking me
to like, turn on Bradley.

Like, don't trust Bradley.

He would [bleep] your girlfriend

in a heartbeat. I'm like, what?

I don't like how she's
disrespecting my name like that.

All I know is that I have
seen Maddi at her best

and recently I just,
I don't-- I don't see that.

Like whether
I'm jealous or not, I like,

I just don't know
if Trevor's good her.

- Yeah.
- Now she's telling me

not to be friends with you
'cause you're--

'cause you-- you're a cheater.

She's dating the ultimate
cheater. King cheater.

When it starts hurting
your friendships and your work,

is it worth it?
Is that a healthy relationship?

This is not the Maddi Reese
that I used to work with.

Can I take this one
out of your way?

- Thank you.
- Wanna share it?

Don't look at me
while you do this.

I'm third wheeling. [laughs]

Can you leave? [laughs]

[upbeat music]

Hell, miss boss lady.
Hello. Hello.

- Hi. How are you?
- Good.

- Good to see you.
- Hello.

- Hi. How are you?
- Good.

Look at you two hanging out.

You don't want a drink?
Water? Anything?

- No, I got a water.
- Okay.

Just Coca-Cola.
I promise. [laughs]

You're not working. You're fine.

- Just Coca-Cola.
- Yeah.

About to head
to Martini Monday after this.

- Nice.
- So I'm gonna go support

- the boys and stuff like that.
- Good.

- How are you?
- I'm good. It's just

a busy week so I'm just
trying to push everyone.

I'm glad you guys are
going to Martini Monday.

I really wanna, like,
hit marks, like, this week.

I just wanna kill it.
I really, really wanna kill it.

So what's going on, kiddos?

We were, like,
talking a little bit

and I think that
we wanna do this, like,

thing on Martini Monday.

Like, the first
annual Pride event.

- I think that'd be a good idea.
- On Monday.

Kinda like
a celebratory aftermath.

That's a Pride--
that's a Pride weekend, baby.

You're-- Yeah.

Mikel and I have decided to
come together and host an event.

We're gonna do very

multicolor lights.
Rainbow lights.

Will you
make colorful martinis?

Blue Hein's blue.

The lemon drop will be yellow.

We're gonna sugarcoat
the rim in pink.

We have a drink menu
getting made.

Cocktail napkins,
little umbrellas

for, like,
the garnishes on the drinks.

Because here we're gonna
try to do a balloon arch and,

like, do really extra but I feel
like Bourbon N' Bubbles is

like a little bit more--
More, like, classy and chill.

It's just nice
to see you guys, like,

working together and connecting.

I mean, that's cute.
Full circle.

What in the world is happening?

- But it's like--
- [laughs]

TJ and I have come
a very, very long way.

No, you're missing
the----ing point.

- The point is that you're--
- [overlapping argument]

- I don't care.
- How about you go back there

- and serve me--
- Shut the [bleep] up.

Keep my name out
your goddamn mouth.

- Trash.
- You're a thirsty bitch.

You keep running
your mouth about me.

So shut up before
I fix your damn thirst.

We're friends now. So honestly,

it's time to
- ing celebrate this sh--.

I took off this date in
the calendar I think, like,

a long time ago
and I forgot I did.

So when we got the schedule
and it said "request off,"

I was like, perfect,
I forgot I did this.

I knew there's a few of you
going over to the parade.

But then listen, I can't,
like, give all my strong staff,

like, the day off,
especially on such a busy day.

I think you're giving me
a day off.

I don't know
how long this thing goes.

- I mean, I--
- I was hoping you guys

would end up coming here
at like three--

like, four o'clock or something.

So yeah.
So Pride Saturday, Joe and Brad

are going to wear drag
for Pride.

Oh, they are?

I told Joe, "Dress up in drag
and we'll be friends again."

Yeah. What if
you guys did a drag show?

Y'all should do the drag show!

If you want be my friend again,

lemme me dress you up
as a woman for a day.

- Will you do it, Brad?
- I'll do it.

I'll do whatever you want.
I think we--

We got black one
and a white one.

I feel like Pride is
when everyone is, like,

coming together to celebrate
the same exact cause.

And it's like you can be
straight, be free. It's like--

- I think it's like no fear.
- Yeah.

And so, like, seeing
how much our friends and peers

really support us,
it made me go, "Damn."

I haven't accepted this
for myself yet.

I've never really processed
how I'm actually

feeling about
being gay in America.

Being a Christian who loves men.

I think it's just
like this entire week--

it being Pride weekend.

Like, I just
wanna live my truth.

I love men. I'm gay.

Oh, okay. I said the word.
I said it again.

- I said it again.
- Yes!

You have to, like, live for you.

When I first,
like, accepted it myself

is like, I was at beach week.

When we graduate high school,

there's a bunch of schools
that go down to, like,

the same street on the water,
and, like, everyone gets houses.

- Right.
- And...

there was this guy
that went to a different school

but we're all, like,
hanging out one night

and he was, like,
the first person

I, like, ever hooked up with.

And then the next
morning my mom called,

she's like, "How's beach week?

Like, how's everything?
Like, any cute girls?"

And, like, right when
I got off the phone

I just, like, like, lost it.

- That was, like, me like--
- Like crying.

- Like having a breakdown.
- Yeah.

Really hit me that like
what-- what was happening?

- Yeah.
- And then, like,

over the years it, like,
you know, the questions of

where's your girlfriend, like,
slowly stop coming. Like...

So there was
no formal conversation?

No, there was no formal.
Which honestly might have put

a strain on my relationship with
my family a little bit because,

like, I was hiding
part of my life

and I feel like that's maybe why

you're not so close
with your family.

- Right.
- Holy sh--.

This makes so much sense.

Why am I
not close with my family?

'Cause I'm not sharing
my entire life with them.

My mom doesn't even know
that you guys call me Mikel.

- No way.
- Yeah.

Wipe all the things
in my head.

I think that's why,
like, I'm so into, like,

having so many friends
and being social because

I think that's why you are too
'cause you're--

And you take friendships
very seriously

- and the support--
- [laughs]

It's like a therapy session.
Like a----ing therapy session.

Yeah.

Coming out is hard in general,

but imagine coming out
in the South

to two Christian pastors.

I wanna believe that everything
will still be the same.

But in reality,
and this being truthful,

things won't be the same because
I'm a different person now.

And what if they
don't like this new person?

So.

Jesus!

Coming up.

Happy Pride.
I love you guys so much.

[cheering]

No, never mad.

Beer's catching up to me.

[motorcycle roar]

- Going over the bridge.
- Oh my God. Oh my God.

You'll be fine. I got you.

Oh, my goodness.

We should do this more often.

[laughs]
Listen, the motorcycle got me

feeling some type way.

Okay. We're definitely
riding more then.

Okay. Every day.

[motorcycle roars]

[music continues]

Let's meditate right here.

- Yes?
- In the shade? Yeah.

What's coming up for you?

[chuckles]

I guess, you know, certainty,

you know,
respect, communication.

Those are like foundations for
any progression moving forward.

- Mm-hmm.
- I mean,

I just wanna make sure,

you know, if we're getting back
together as a unit that this is

the right thing to do, you know.

Davon and I are together,

but we're going through
a rough patch.

A few months ago
I had a relationship

with someone I used to date.

I didn't tell Davon
but he went through my phone

and he found it all.

I don't wanna make sure
both of us are not just like,

you know,
we want this so bad that

we're just forcing us
to be back together.

- Yeah, I agree.
- I just want this to be--

I definitely don't want
that toxicity.

'Cause that's--
that's a whole 'nother problem

that's negative for Lucas.

[upbeat music]

Oh yeah. We need
to get down our pet list.

Wait, did you ever have a--

like a pet fish when
you were little?

I had fish tanks
all growing up.

I had a beta fish
named SpongeBob

but he only lasted a month.

Then I got a turtle.

Turtle was hard.

- You like snakes?
- Yes.

[both laugh]

What a beautiful sunny day.

The sun. Oh, my gosh.
The sun is my best friend.

I'm sunbathing.
I like to be nude.

Naked all the way.

My whole life I've felt
misunderstood and judged.

I think it's because people just
want any reason not to like me.

We don't like her 'cause she's--
she's pretty or whatever.

She travels the world.

It's almost like
car engine fluid.

Keeps your motor running.

Like I have had some moms
in the neighborhood

get a little upset
so I tend not to go to

the neighborhood pool
anymore. [laughs]

I don't wanna get up.

I'll open up
the blackout curtains.

- Please.
- I'm so hungover.

Ugh! That's so painful.

- Ugh!
- That's so painful.

Normal people are supposed
to see the sunlight

- this time of day.
- Who said I was normal?

Nobody did.

I love my blackout curtains.

I get to sleep until noon.
Wake up.

I only waste half my day

and then I have the other
half of my day to enjoy.

I just definitely, like--

like, law school
will never be an option

if I am sleeping until noon
every day. Like that--

the where I--
where I want life to go

doesn't seem like a life where
blackout curtains are involved.

Okay.

I grew up in a law firm
that my dad and mom run.

And I've an ambition to do
something more professional

in my life than serve
vodka sodas and Bud Lights.

I see Will on my 40th, you know,

with him having
his own law firm, two kids,

a nice, pretty house
in Charleston.

This fantasy is I think less
about me and more about you.

If you go to law school.

Apply to law school.
Get into law school.

Go there for three years.
Take the bar, become a lawyer...

- Yeah?
- I'll get an eye mask.

I mean, it's--
it's like a-- it's like a--

Blackout curtain for your eyes.

Like that.
[laughs] It'll be perfect.

[upbeat music]

- Hey, daddy-O.
- What's going on, big boy?

- How are you?
- Ai-yai-yai. Good to see you.

Have you been here before?

Ugh.
No, I haven't been here before.

- Thank you so much.
- Thank you.

Would you guys like some water?

I'm gonna do water
and I'm gonna do a--

- a glass of your rosé as well.
- Okay.

Let's do the mozzarella sticks.

Yeah, that's--
that's me. That's good.

- I'm good right there.
- That's all you're eating?

- Yeah.
- All right. Let me order

- my food then. I'm gonna do--
- I knew he ain't

- gonna pass the food.
- [laughs]

I was seven years old
when my parents divorced.

I'm gonna do the tagliatelle
alfredo. Thank you so much.

- Thank you.
- Yep.

It was something I was
supposed to do with my dad,

but that's when I knew that
my parents were not together.

[laughs] Why am I laughing?

[laughs] I'm sorry.

How's the career thing going?

It's-- it's going.

I think, like, after I left

working for the church
kinda went through

a little spell of, like,
figuring out what's next

and I kinda dived
into the nightlife scene.

I've had so many
opportunities to do things

I never thought I'll be able
to do just from taking a chance.

I've never came out
to my dad because...

I just don't wanna lose my dad.

[chuckles]

My dad's my biggest supporter.

My dad has taught me

so many things about
being a man and being

just an adult in life. And so...

I would rather hide who I am

than to be myself
and to be alone.

Yeah.

Oh, you're the best.
You're the best.

Thank you, ma'am.

Thank you.

Honestly,
I think leaving the church

made me break this
cycle of comfortability

I feel like
they would not accept

someone with
my lifestyle choices.

When I'm looking at where--
where you are now...

I'll be honest with you,
I mean, like, I'm not surprised.

I see you finding your way.

I don't worry about you,
not as much as I used to.

[Mikel laughs] Life is
gonna teach you some things

that you probably
ain't gonna tell me about.

That's cool.

But if you hear something

that you don't wanna see,
hear about.

That's your story.

You don't even have to tell me.

I just--

Yep. That was God.

I am pretty sure
my Dad's telling me,

"No, I know who you are.

So you don't have
to feel obligated.

You don't have to tell me."

- Thank you so much.
- It doesn't matter

where you go, Mikey. You know
Daddy's always with you.

So, you know, you keep pressing.

You do what you gotta do.

You know everybody, I mean,

everybody's proud of
what you're doing.

- I know we are.
- For real?

Yeah. You are good.

As we old people say,
you good-- you a good boy.

- [laughs] I'm a good boy.
- You a good boy.

I'm the good kid.

He doesn't really want
to talk about it

'cause he knows and
he still loves me, you know?

This is a very big deal.
And so for me,

this moment isn't about me,
it's about us.

When-- when everything
is done, you know,

you will come back
and sing for us?

♪ Whatever my lot

♪ Thou hast taught me to say

♪ It is well

♪ With my soul

♪ Well

♪ With my soul

- Wow.
- It's always those hymns.

Yeah, you do well, son.
You do well.

- Oh, Lord.
- Yeah.

- Coming up.
- Maddi texted Joe Bradley,

you know, if you had
a girlfriend,

like, Brad would try
and [bleep] her.

I'm like Maddi, can we go do
something else with our time?

I'm gonna do the gold on you,
if that's okay.

Yeah. I mean,
doesn't matter to me.

- Okay.
- Just make me look good.

Yeah. Face me. Yeah.

I'm so excited.

Today is Pride in Charleston
and we are ready to transform.

Okay, look at that.
Rub them lips together.

What do we think?

It's pretty much a similar look.

- The same-- [laughs]
- Oh, my God. [laughs]

My drag name
is going to be Rose.

So I'm a beautiful rose,
a beautiful flower,

but I have a thorn.
I love your outfit though.

That rainbow dress is dope.

You have the pasties
on the nipples.

- Like, that's a vibe.
- Hello, Will.

All right. Bradley. This is it?

- This is it.
- Looking good.

- You look good.
- All right.

So it's us three now.
That gives us

about an hour and a half
to set up.

- Let's go.
- Yes.

I wanna get
this place decorated.

All right. You hold this.

I got some koozies
that say, "You're beautiful."

I feel like that's appropriate.

Yeah, that's appropriate.

I love working at Republic.
It's awesome.

Time melts away. You don't even
realize you're working anymore.

- All right.
- Need help?

I'm really good at this.

Do flags around the edge here.

You can weave 'em
through the front.

No, Grace. I'm saying
'like in the railings,

- [pop]
- Oh, Grace.

[laughs]

The idea that
I could use all that

to create a career is enticing.

I would just
need Leva to give me

a lot more responsibility
and I know I could handle it.

I have to go get in character.

Happy Pride!
Come hang out with us.

- Hi, y'all.
- How are you?

Looks amazing in here.

You look amazing.
Grace, let's go.

- Yeah. To the makeup.

- We're gonna finish.
- See you soon, Bradlina.

No, it's Rose today.

[upbeat music]

Introducing Josephina!

[cheering]

Yes!

We have some
VIP tables coming in.

It's a Pride--
What time are they coming in?

I'm figuring out right now.
I think they're come--

they're all gonna come
in like 30 minutes. I think so.

I literally saw Bradley.

Who's Bradley?
Yeah, this is-- I'm Rose.

- Rose?
- Rose.

Hi. Oh, my gosh.
You look gorgeous.

Happy Pride. I hope it's okay.

- Your nipples are covered.
- Yeah. Okay.

Not everyone is scheduled
to work today

but these are the big efforts
that, like, these, like,

leaps on days like this,
like make a big jump.

That's why I always say,
you guys took the initiative.

Kudos to you guys and hopefully
everybody else will show up.

I can't even
take them seriously.

He keeps batting his eyelashes.

Let's rock.

- [upbeat music]
- Hey y'all, welcome.

Traffic control. Right here.

What's up!

Thank you for doing this.

My idea to have Joe and Brad
dress up in drag

came from being
a little shady for sure,

but it's pretty damn cool
to see straight manly men

wearing dresses
and supporting the community

- that I'm coming into.
- Y'all look hot.

I would date y'all.
This is what Pride is.

Us coming together and
supporting this group of people.

And so,
I love them for that. I do.

We're gonna do
like a little fashion show

and you guys are gonna
walk down from, like, that

"You are beautiful."
And then just like do a strut.

- [upbeat music]
- [cheering]

Happy Pride!
I love you guys so much!

[cheering]

[music continues]

What up, sexy lady?

Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.

It's busy in here.

- Hey!
- Hi guys, my name is Chris.

Hey, Chris. Happy to see ya.

So yes, I met this guy
and we kinda hit it off.

It's gonna be
a great Pride. [laughs]

After the Griffin,

I just feel like the vibe
has been off at Republic.

You were licking peanut butter
off his dick

- and that's cool with Maddi.
- Me and Trevor in the past

is none of anyone's----ing
business, so shut the [bleep up.

And I feel like this is
that team bonding that we need.

We're great, great friends.
Really proud of you guys.

Sprinkles, sparkles,
sunshine, rainbows.

- Hi, buddy.
- I love you.

I think that
I finally found a good guy

and it's just refreshing
and I'm gonna hold onto it.

Will has a potential to be
a great manager and leader.

It's nice to see him
supporting the business

in ways and taking initiatives.

That's what I wanna see.

It feels like it's
a huge weight came off me.

This feels so great
to live my truth.

This feels so amazing
to be who I am...

and to, like get,
a little tongue action

while I'm doing it. [laughs]

- Coming up.
- What's going on with Brad?

ing caught him in the
alley getting his dick sucked

by a girl
that's not his girlfriend.

What a rainy ass day.

Hopefully we could
get our workout in today.

Well, we'll see by
the time we go to the park

if this rains dry-- dies down.

Lucía is one of my best friends.

And whenever possible,
we like to work out together.

A lot of our friends
that work at Republic

live that vampire lifestyle.
They can sleep till 2:00 p.m.

but we never miss a session.

What's up?

We haven't had time to talk.

With Davon and I, you know,
we're just taking some--

some space apart right now.

Like, he staying over
his friend's house, so.

Does that-- does the unknown
variables like not bother you?

Yeah, of course,
it----ing bothers me,

especially having
a child involved

and I had feelings
as a girlfriend

and I have to control
those feelings as a mother.

Davon is hurt.

- I understand.
- Mm-hmm.

I love Davon

but we're treading through
some rocky ass waters.

This is just not
my fault that you're late.

I would be mad at you
for not being ready yet

but, you know, I should be
used to it at this point.

And then who has to deal
with the anxiety

and stress
that goes along with that? Me.

I didn't sign up for that.

Yeah.

Just saying.

Earlier this week
Davon moved his stuff out

and I'm not sure
where we go next.

I mean, what do you want?
Do you know?

- With Davon--
- Mm-hmm.

I'm sure
we'll get over this in due time.

But how was your morning?

So essentially I've been seeing
this girl, Kala, right?

- Kala.
- This is the first time

in a long time
that I've ever, like,

truly been interested in a girl.

She used to work at Republic
years ago as a hostess, right?

- Mm-hmm.
- So she, like,

somewhat knows Maddi,
to an extent.

And then Maddi reached out
to Kala then was like,

"Hey, like, just so you know,

you need to watch
out for Bradley."

And-- and it sucks
because I'm finally, like,

taking a girl
and it's, like, serious

and, like, talking
to my mom about her.

Like, they haven't met.
But, like,

this is someone that's
like on the radar type thing.

And then you have someone that's
supposed to be your friend

go and do that, like,
behind my back blows my mind.

Oh! People get on
my----ing nerves.

[chuckles] Yeah.
Maddi is basically implying

that I'm a cheater.
That's bullsh--.

I've had two
girlfriends in my life

and I've never cheated
on either of them.

This weather
is not letting up at all.

[upbeat music]

I like these, these, or these.

I'm thinking pink.

Or actually, hold on.
These are really cool.

I don't
have something like that.

Yeah. No, I gotta take
a nap for sure.

But do we think
Joe Bradley will be there?

Sometimes he's
been showing up for sh--

sometimes he hasn't been, so.

Speaking of the team, though,

what's going on with Brad?

Like, are you guys
kinda better, good, not good?

Like, he's a nice guy,
but he's a----ing skank

and----ing shady as [bleep].

We literally--
we----ing caught him

in the alley----ing
getting his dick sucked

by a girl that's not
his girlfriend last week, so.

I wouldn't say the girl
is his girlfriend.

Right. But we keep
our mouth shut.

I went up to Kala
and I was like, "Hey,

like girl, like, you know,
being friends with Sierra

and like this whole Reagan
situation, like,

I just wanna let you know, like,
just protect your heart."

- Yeah.
- I've been friends

with Kala for a while.

She worked
at Republic before Brad.

And, you know, she came into
Republic to talk to me

about how they were dating
and you know,

I told her protect your heart.

I feel like that's broad.
"Hey, just protect your heart.

Be safe."
It's a pretty broad statement.

I'm not saying,
"Hey, I watched Brad

get his dick sucked
in the back alley."

'Cause that did happen.
I think I like these.

Those are cool.
I think you should get those.

The day before,
I opened the door

in the back of Republic and
he is getting his dick sucked

by some girl. You know, I'm not
gonna go run to Kala and say,

"Hey, you know,
he's seeing other people."

I'm not gonna do that. But
me saying protect your heart...

was a broad, nice way to say it.

So you're welcome, Brad.

No, but guys love to know the
girl that they're sleeping with

is the only one
that they're sleeping with.

So they like to----ing
manipulate because they want--

And then just go off and do
their own thing. But yeah.

Maddie texted Joe Bradley,

"Hey, you know
if you had a girlfriend,

like, Brad
would try and [bleep] her."

I'm like, "Maddi, what--
where is that coming from?

Because you feel like I treated
your friend a certain way

one time seven months ago,
damn, can we now move on?

Can we go do
something else with our time?"

Invest that energy. Literally.

Invest that
into your relationship.

So it actually works out
this time

and he doesn't
go [bleep] someone else.

Coming from a girl's
perspective, why do you,

Like, I would
never do that to you.

- What do you mean?
- Any of my friends.

What do you mean what I mean?

That's----ed up, Maddi.

Happy Pride, bitches.

This looks very gay.
Very Prideful.

Oh, that looks good.

Like, do we bring all these

kind of down a little bit?

Like the lights,
make the colorful rainbows

really pop out, you know?

- That's better.
- That's good.

That's good.

- Thank you.
- Thank you so much.

TJ and I both felt like

we need to do
something differently

than what the guys did
at Republic.

How many Pride events
have you ever seen

that doesn't involve people
dressing up in rainbows

and just people half-ass naked?

We wanted a more upscale
version of Pride

and what's a better way
other than

at Bourbon N' Bubbles
with a martini?

Everybody's coming,
which I'm pretty excited about.

Yeah, no,
I have like 40 people coming.

Yeah. Cam's coming with Wilson.

I think Chris has to work
but he's coming.

[upbeat music]

No, I really didn't.

I mean,
I may have called a few times.

It's okay.
It happens to the best of us.

How are y'all doing?

Oh, my God. Double doors
just for Grace Lilly. Mwah!

Hello!

Hello. Hello.

Oh, my God!

Wait a minute. Wait.
Wait, wait a damn minute!

Are they cute or what?

What the [bleep]?

- Are they cute or what?
- How are you, baby?

I like these, like, a lot.
I'll get 'em.

- No, I got it.
- No, you don't have to.

No, Mom's got it. Let's go.

- Where's Trevor?
- He's coming.

- This is, like, really good.
- Yeah, it is really good.

All the people love
all the gays. I love that.

I'm actually really
impressed with nice this is.

It's kinda weird to see--
see us like not working.

- I know.
- It's so nice.

I don't know any
of those people right there.

That's my friend Nicky,
girl in the black dress.

She met her husband and
they just had a kid together.

- And--
- Do you want a kid?

I don't know. Do you?

I think so. I'm a Christian.

So I believe
that anything is possible.

Okay.

Hey! What's up?

- What's up?
- What's up!

How are you?

What's up?

What's up!

- Hi. What's up?
- I want a hug!

- How're we doing?
- Mother----er!

- Oh, my God.
- Hi, guys.

- A queen.
- I made it!

- A queen.
- Hello.

Come on.

By the way, love Cameron.

He's so down to earth.
So chill.

Kinda reminds of myself.

Kinda like what you were saying.

Oh yeah.
He slept over last night.

He brought me breakfast
in bed this morning. I know.

He went to the whole-ass
grocery store to buy

dinner and breakfast?

- Yeah.
- That's a commitment.

I'm not getting my--
my breakfast

- brought to me.
- [laughs]

All right.
So many people to say hi to.

I didn't get the black polo
memo. Like, yeah. Hi.

Look at this guy, all black.

We're having
the best conversation ever.

Talking all about you two guys.

Can you grab Maddi for me?
Can grab Maddi for me?

- Maddi Reese.
- Yeah.

Maddi, come talk to me.

Bradley is, of course, upset.

There was no need for Maddi
to add her two cents.

Your provoke a bear,
it's gonna bite.

- So, what's up?
- No.

You know
why I wanna talk to you.

I mean, I'm confused.

Why are you telling Kala, "Hey,
you need to watch out for Brad?"

I just said protect your heart.

You're implying that
I'm gonna do something bad.

We literally that day
had a conversation--

No, but the thing is,
is I don't know.

That's not being
a good friend, Maddi.

I didn't say watch out.
I said protect your heart.

That's what I said.

But you're giving
her a reason

to worry when you pull
her aside and do that.

That's some mean girl sh--.
I would never do that to you.

- What do you mean?
- Any of my friends.

What do you mean what I mean?
That's not cool.

Why would you do that
in the first place?

Because I saw you
in the alleyway

with another girl
like last week.

I was telling
her protect her heart.

But listen, I didn't know
what terms you guys were on.

I didn't know
if you were dating.

That's----ed up, Maddi.

- I mean, I-I don't-- I--
- That's----ed up!

Next time, on the season finale
of Southern Hospitality.

Like, Mia Alario,
you're beautiful.

You're funny.
You've got your sh-- together.

I like that.

[both laugh]

It was also hard for me
to be nine months

without you by my side
while you were

still involved
with someone else.

Yeah.

Focus on applying to law school.

Make law school a priority.
I'm not comfortable.

I can't live off of
what my rent cost me

just by working at Republic.

I have a big surprise
for you guys.

- I've chartered a yacht.
- [cheering]

I love a yacht!

Oh, they got champagne baths.

The lobsters.
Bring out the dancing lobsters.

Bougie, baby!

[cheering]

Obviously, I've had feelings
for you for a long time.

- It hurts me.
- I was single

for the past
nine----ing months.

Why didn't you tell me
how you feel then?

- Ugh!
- You need to have a boundary.

If you cross it again,

we're gonna have
an actual problem.

If I were her boyfriend,
I would be so pissed.

Keep your----ing cool.

- Keep your cool.

- You're so----ing stupid!
- So what?
