All language subtitles for Hit the Floor s02e04 Full-Court Press.eng

Previously on Hit the Floor:

- What is it you want?
- I want you.

It's why I'm here,
it's why I'm dragging out the divorce.

- Do you know who I'm the girlfriend of?
- Ex-girlfriend.

You've zeroed in on someone new.

- Keep it.
- it's gonna take longer

-to pay off Benny's debt.
- Pick our next target then.

We've been good
staying off the grid.

I don't know if the Ahsha I met
months ago could've pulled this off.

Doing something that'll get her fired,
something she's been able

to keep hidden from me.
I'm working on it.

Derek Roman, TMZ. I got a shot
of you and your lady up the hill.

I didn't kill Olivia. I know he did it.
I knew he'd get away with it.

- You're talking about Oscar.
- Yeah.

There's a murderer inside
Devil's Arena. it's time to get out.

Why are you so far away?

A photographer got pictures of us
at the overlook last night.

He sold them to TMZ.

- Is this a joke?
- He hit me up for a quote.

This isn't a joke.

Look, I got them to hold off
till noon, but...

I'm going to be kicked out
of the Devil Girls.

What do we do?

You told your agency about us?

- We are way past that.
- When this goes public

say you were comforting a friend
after the loss of her former boss.

It got heated,
but it's not what it looks like.

Just deny it. Deny it to everyone.

Will that save Ahsha's job?

Your guess is as good as mine.

I don't wanna be guessing.
Make sure Ahsha stays a Devil Girl.

Dancers aren't really my area
of expertise, Derek.

- You can talk to your dad.
- You're overestimating

the pull I have with Oscar.
He's in Tokyo. I wouldn't know how

Jude.

Any time I've needed something,
you've come through for me.

You need to come through for me
again.

You didn't sell the restaurant.

It was being undervalued. I'll try again
when the market heats up.

This woman will not die.

I have been cordially invited
to the reading of Olivia's will tonight.

What would she leave you?

A warehouse full of bandage dresses
and oestrogen patches?

Not even a little respect
for the dead?

That woman hassled me
till the day she died, literally.

What are you talking about?

I'm talking about blackmail.

She sent me a letter,
demanded that I meet her

and when I did, she went on and on
about some deranged plan

to crash the groundbreaking
and cause trouble for Oscar.

She said if I didn't back her up there,
she'd cause trouble for me.

What kind of trouble?

She knew about the oxymetholone.

That you tested positive.

That I gave it to you.

How did she know about that?

She was outside the locker room
that night.

She overheard us.

- Did she tell anyone else?
- I took care of it.

Like I take care of everything.

Okay, here are the rest of the outfits
for the Hollywood Arena promo shoot.

Remind the girls, Oscar wants edge.

New arena, new attitude.

Michael, hi.
Thanks for calling me back.

Listen,
I need you to do something for me.

- What do you need?
- I've been trying to get ahold

of Devil Girl personnel Hles.

Human Resources told me
the police tagged them as evidence.

Can you call your friend in the L.A.P.D.
and get me a copy of Mia's file?

Yeah, l.. I can try.

Thanks.

I heard this promo
is gonna run during primetime.

After the kids have been put to bed.

And right before Daddy
puts Mommy to bed.

We're almost done. Five minutes.

Ahsha? What is it?

Dancers, take your places.

Devil Girls promo, take one.
Playback.

And cut!

- Hello?
- You're supposed to be helping me

with my charity event tonight.
This is not helping.

Oscar! Oscar!

What does Oscar
have you doing this time?

Not Oscar, Derek.

He got papped with one of the dancers.
He's got me calling all over Japan

trying to track Oscar down
to beg him not to fire her.

The dancer's your hubby's kid.
So thank him for me, would you?

Ahsha?

- Who took the picture?
- TMZ.

Derek promised a quote
if they held it till noon,

but he's not giving one,
just trying to buy some time.

Give it to me like I like it, Reggie.

Do I know you?
You look really familiar.

I practically live at Devils Arena,
so unless you go to home games.

Well, I'm a season ticket holder,
courtside.

Louis Jason, investment banker.

Kyle Hart, Devil Girl.

I come here every morning.

How crazy is that?

We're both at every home game
and we meet at a coffee shop.

Well, wherever it happened,
I'm just glad it happened.

Unbelievable.

I can't even go to the bathroom
without you hitting on someone.

- No, Alisha, look
- Save it. You can have him.

Hope you enjoy your trip
to Lake Flaccid. He can't get it up!

- You got a second?
- I'm really busy right now.

It's about Ahsha.

She got herself into some trouble.

What kind of trouble?

TMZ has a picture of her
and one of your players.

Derek.

It's my understanding that something
like this can end a Devil Girl's career.

I better get Oscar on the phone.

Oscar is at the mercy of public opinion.

Even if he wanted make an exception

he can't if this thing doesn't spin
the right way.

Ahsha needs to fix this.

I can help her if you want.

- How?
- By making it impossible for Oscar

to fire her.

People know Ahsha
through the all- stars,

but she doesn't have a profile yet.

Everything happening now
is gonna cement that.

She can slum it in the gossip rags

or we can lovingly present her to the
world through more mainstream media.

We shouldn't be promoting this,
we should kill it.

This story's gonna break
whether you like it or not.

I know the head guy at TMZ.

He agreed not to run the pic. Instead,
I've arranged for Du Monde Magazine

to run with it on their website,
with a beautiful picture.

It's gonna be shot by the photographer
who owns the original pic.

Everyone's happy.

Pete, this is my business.

I know what I'm talking about.

My annual charity event is tonight
at the Pacific Design Center.

The Du Monde piece will be timed
to Ahsha and Derek's arrival.

- You want them there.
- it's a charity event.

You want them there.
The Devils should be there as well.

Dancers, players, everyone.
Should be a show of support.

It wouldn't exactly hurt
your event either.

Or you could roll the dice
on her career. Your call.

Will it Work?

Depends on one person.

If this thing has a chance of working,
you need to go public in a big way.

Not as just dating, but as a committed
boyfriend and girlfriend.

Boyfriend and girlfriend.

L.. Yeah, I guess so.

I can put you in front of cameras
and reporters as Derek's' girlfriend,

but I can't charm them for you.

How well I do dictates whether or not
I get to keep my job as a Devil Girl.

There's no guarantees,
but it's the best shot we got.

I'm in.

By the way, I don't think we've been
properly introduced.

I'm Lionel. Your father's wife.

TMZ.
I never saw you as the gossip type.

Depends on the gossip.

Guess who's being dragged
to Olivia's will reading tonight.

Are you serious?

She can't do anything gracefully,
why should die be any different?

Something else is bothering you.

Terrence?

I can't believe I wasted so much time
with him.

Try again.

I miss him so much it hurts.

Just tell him.

You can't just walk up to someone
and tell them that.

- Of course you can.
- I can't.

I wouldn't even know how.

Try. Fail.

Try again. it's called being human.

It's been pointed out to me
that that's not my strongest suit.

- Jelena
- I've got to go.

- Zero, what's up?
- You got a minute to talk ball?

Sure.

When I played for Ohio, you know
what we knew about the Devils?

That two seasons ago we owned you
and then you killed us in the playoffs.

Devils run most of their plays
through Derek and Terrence.

The year we beat you,
the year I got my ring,

our defence adjusted,
and it worked.

- Yeah, I remember.
- Now, playing for the Devils

I see that approach,
it's wearing the whole team out.

Here's some Ohio plays
that got us to the championship.

I thought maybe we could use them.

These plays,
you get the ball more.

And Derek gets it less.

Iron sharpens iron
as one man sharpens another.

Proverbs, 27:17.

We're all on the same team.

Still, it's touchy, one player proposing
taking time away from another,

which is why I came to you
instead of Coach D.

I don't wanna be seen
as the new guy stirring things up.

So you want the other new guy
to stir things up?

Check out the plays.

If I'm wrong,
this conversation never happened.

If I'm right, this could make you.

You went rogue?

Longer it takes to pay of Benny's debt,
the longer I am stuck married to him.

- I need to put some wind in our sails.
- By putting some wind in Louis'?

Louis has a less- than- magic Johnson
and I have magical powers in that area.

He's loaded.
When I get it up, he'll give it up.

Wait, you're gonna wear that?

We're 96 grand from the finish line.

- I need to finish this.
- Two hundred grand.

I found a broker this morning
that will take the ring.

That's better.

So I talked to my friend
at the L.A.P.D.

There are no Devil Girl files
in evidence.

How is that possible?

- Time to give up, Sloane.
- I thought I told you

Not because it's dangerous. Because
it's one dead-end after the next.

Sloane, Oscar is too good
at covering his tracks.

- Michael, I told you, I'm
- Hold on.

- Yeah, I have to take this.
- You can talk in here.

Hey. Come on in.

So this is your office.

- it's small.
- it's perfect.

I wanted to be the first to tell you.

Derek and I are together.

Like "together" together?

It's going to be in the press.

You're gonna be in the press
as Derek Roman's girlfriend.

Someone took photos of us,
I might get kicked off the team.

Look, l.. I can't really hear
about your job right now.

I didn't wanna tell you this,
but I had to, so...

Ahsha.

I keep getting your mail.

It's time you change your address.

Must get quiet here without Ahsha.

Is that my phone?

Someone's been sending you texts

telling you to make me quit
over and over.

Same number that called you earlier,
the call you had to take outside.

For days, you've been pushing me
to stop investigating Oscar.

- He got to you.
- No one got to me, Sloane.

- The texts and calls are from my boss.
- Why would your boss

- want me off this case?
- There is no case. Not anymore.

It's a murder investigation now.

It's too hot for the league to pursue.
Politically, think it's best we back off.

I don't believe you.

Did you even ask the L.A.P.D.
if they have those personnel files?

I did, they don't have them.

- HR said they did.
- Who does HR work for?

I looked everywhere.

Except

Oscar's office.

It doesn't matter. it's over.

Just because the league got gutless
doesn't mean you have to.

They reassigned me.

I was supposed to be in Cleveland
last week.

I'm sorry, Sloane.

What you wanna do
is extraordinary

and so is your anger

at the organisation, at Oscar.

You've been sitting on hurts
for 20 years.

That can affect your judgment.

This is too dangerous, Sloane.

I need you to promise me you'll stop.

After this, you have a dress fitting.

Right.
Photo shoot, dress fitting, red carpet.

And reporters are gonna be
grilling you about Dersha.

- Dersha?
- It could be so much worse.

Penel, Lionete.

Pete and I were doomed
from the beginning.

- What'll the reporters ask?
- Everything. Mostly asking you.

- Have your answers ready.
- So hit me.

How did you meet?

When we first saw each other
or when we actually--?

Spit out your answers.
Bumbling means you're lying.

You met volunteering.

- That's not true.
- They don't know that.

- What's it like dating bad boy Derek?
- Come on.

- We're ready.
- Come on.

It's never boring.

But that answer is.

Bad boy Derek Roman, I wouldn't know.

He's always been so sweet to me.

I know a different Derek
than the rest of the world.

He's my best friend.

Am I Derek's girlfriend
or a Miss America contestant?

Maybe you need a break.

I need to stay a Devil Girl.

Ask me another question.

- Hey.
- Hey.

I don't wanna bother you, but part
of this whole Ahsha and Derek thing

is showing support
at the charity event tonight.

The players are coming. Hopefully
get the world out to the dancers too.

What Ahsha- Derek thing?

I assumed she told you.

They were caught together.

Obviously, that can mean
Ahsha's spot on the team

so they're trying
to get ahead of the story

spin it so that Oscar will keep her.

When did this happen?

This morning.
The spin, that was Lionel's idea.

- Lionel.
- She's spearheading the whole thing.

She's very good at it, it's her thing.

Well, I'm glad it's her thing,
but this is my job.

Ahsha's not only my daughter,
she's my dancer.

E- mail me whatever it is they're doing
and when and where this party is.

- I'll have the dancers there.
- Sloane--

Longer you're standing here,
the less time I have to get the word out.

I-- I appreciate what you're trying to do,
but I am a lost cause.

Nonsense, honey.

- There's no such thing.
- I've tried every pill,

I've been to sex therapists
on three different continents.

Well, you've never been to me.

When I'm done
assaulting your senses

you'll need a chair and a whip
to keep it down.

What, so--?
So you're trained at this?

Just call it life.

- Oh, speaking of.
- Yeah.

Let's start with sight.

How am I looking?

_ l__
- Speechless.

- Yeah.
- That's a good start.

Okay. Okay, okay, okay.

Yeah, that's...

- On to hearing.
- Yeah.

Yeah. That's good.

Oh, my--

Oh, my God.

Your hair, your hair, your hair.

Your hair, it's so nice.

- That smell.
- Yeah?

- You like?
- Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah.

You know, I think--
I think I'm starting to.

- Time for taste.
- Okay, okay.

They're edible. Wanna nibble?

Nothing? Get on all fours.

Time for touch.

Son of a

No.

Wait, wait.

Raquel.

Listen. Lionel's hosting
a charity event tonight.

The Devils will be there.
You should go with me.

- I am going. With Pete.
- You're still with that guy?

That guy? Just because
you had a run-in with him doesn't--

I'm not thinking about me.
I'm thinking about you.

Me?

- I shouldn't say.
- Say it.

No, I just--

When we had our run-in

I saw the look in his eye
when he punched me.

Right after I brought up Sloane.

It seemed
like he was still hung up on her.

- I almost had him.
- Well, this is what happens

when you do something without me.

Keri Horran.
She looks like a decent target.

- You set off that alarm.
- Why would I do that?

This is Benny all over again.

You're comparing me to Benny?

How is this different? You've been
forcing me to collect with you

from the beginning.
I can't even leave the house alone.

Went from one case to another.
That's all guys ever do.

No, it's because you think all guys
are Benny that he still has his debt.

You've been fighting me
this whole time.

I'm not wasting time
fishing for a new target.

I'm closing this deal with Louis.

And I know
just where I'm gonna close it.

Drive.

Over here.

Miss Howard. Look out here.

This is the moment.

Photographs can be touched up,
articles can be edited. This is live.

Cameras'll be in your face,
people will scream your name.

You cannot just show up.

You have to shine.

Ready?

- There they are.
- Derek, Ahsha.

- Yeah. Over here, please.
- Hey, Derek.

You've had those photos since last
night and you're sitting on them why?

What are you talking about,
Du Monde?

They were dating.
Did you know that?

Pete said they're coming together
tonight, a sort of damage-control thing.

That's why they asked everyone
to come.

As a show of support.

I'll be right back.

- Can we get Ahsha alone?
- Only if I get copies.

Derek.

That's great, guys. Awesome.

- Who are you wearing?
- Maxazria

and my shoes are Badgley IVlisch--
Mischka.

Badgley Mischka.

How long have you and Derek
been dating?

Not long. We were friends first.

How did you meet?

Well, we were volunteering at this...

Actually, the first time we met,
I was running laps around the arena.

I ran into him.

He's, like, 9 feet tall.

I fell for him, literally, on my butt.

I had a bruise for a week.

- You look absolutely beautiful.
- Thank you so much.

Be careful with her.

Oh, the overprotective dad thing,
I dig it.

No, I don't think you do.

I know every trick in the player book.
I know every excuse you can make,

every event that you can use
for a cover.

If you do anything to hurt my daughter,
I will kill you.

- Derek.
- Can we get one with you and Ahsha?

What is--?

Coach D, right here.

Well, there you go.

Got nothing to say.
I can't say anything to follow that.

- Thank you.
- Okay, thank you.

- Lionel, over here, please.
- Lionel.

Look this way.

- Yeah.
- Derek and Ahsha are here.

Together.

And you know what that means.

Being a public couple, the attention
that comes along with that.

Are you willing to let Derek
take what's yours?

This isn't about me and Derek.

It's about you and Ahsha.

This is about power.

No one's realised
that we're not a couple.

You could get down here

jump in front of some cameras
with me, and...

Look, Terrence...

Hello?

If Terrence and Jelena
meant anything to you,

you'll put on a suit
and get down here.

Want a drink?

Yes, with my date Louis,
who will be here any minute.

- No, he won't.
- Yes, he will.

No, he won't.

I went back
to pick up all your little outfits.

You know, so you could have stuff
to wear for the next guy.

I found Louis with them.

Actually, I found Louis in them.

Apparently, that's what he needed
to put the thrill in his drill.

He didn't wanna give them back

so he gave me this instead.

This is $100,000.
He gave you all this for that?

The rest is so you can go back
to school to become a sex therapist.

He said, clearly, you have a gift.

So 100 grand pays off Benny's debt.

Kyle Hart

free and clear.

Divorce papers.

This isn't a personal cheque.
This is a cashier's cheque.

Unless you took Louis to the bank.

You did this.

You paid off the rest of Benny's debt.

I'm like you, Kyle.

I don't get attached.

I can't.

Well.

What do you say we go somewhere
and not get attached together?

This TMZ thing
had your fingerprints all over it.

- Did it?
- You made a mistake.

You underestimated me.

You didn't count on people
having my back.

Who has your back, Jelena?

That's great, ladies. Thank you.
One more.

Go close.

Thank you for all your help.

That's what I do, Pete. I'm a fixer.

I also happened to notice
that story about us on TMZ.

I had to give them something,
replace the Ahsha and Derek piece.

It was quite the headline.

Something like,
is there a thaw in the relationship

between Pete
and Lionel Davenport?

Well.

Isn't there?

Jude Kincaid.

K- l- N--

Hello?

What?

Oscar.

Hey, yeah.

Yeah, I have.

Now, ladies, you look great.
Can you step in a little closer, please?

Smile, girls.

That's right.

Good.

Nice. Lovely.

Thanks, guys.

A little underdressed, no?

I wanted to give you these.

Plays? Here?

Yeah, so you had time to look at them
before the next game.

I've been studying how other teams
have nailed us in close games.

These plays can cut down on that.

They'll cut down on Derek
getting the ball.

I know what you're thinking,
especially after today.

That it's personal, but it's not.

Look, I'm damned if I speak up
and I'm damned if I don't.

I'd rather be damned with a ring.

I'm leaving.

The Jelena and Zero show
just started.

I have to go to Olivia's will reading.

I'd rather have whatever disease
this event is for than go to this thing.

Hopefully, it'll be as brief
as her legacy.

Oscar called Jude.

Jude got them coverage of you working
that sexy dress.

Some of it already made its way
to Japan.

You'll live to dance another day.

Ahsha, what--'?
You're shaking.

Talk to me.
Are you still scared or--?

Of course I'm scared.

I'm now officially
Derek Roman's girlfriend.

Derek Roman, bad boy.

Derek Roman who's never had
a girlfriend his entire life.

Derek Roman who could break me
for the whole world to see.

Hey.

You forgot Derek Roman
that can do anything.

Anything he puts his mind to.

L-- I got this.

I've got you.

And I promise I will always,
always look out for you.

I promise too.

Maybe they have a chance.

They're public now.

In that world,
love has a lot of competition.

I warned Derek I'd kill him
if he didn't look out for Ahsha.

He promised he would.

We promised
we'd look out for each other too.

Still time to get a drink.

Sorry, I have to go. I have some
Playground business to do.

You detinitely don't have
the same problem as Louis.

You're also not like Benny.

So we heading off to the next thing?

Yeah.

That's how we work.

Well, just because this is over

doesn't mean the night
has to be over, does it?

Not at all.

Oscar called from Japan.

I'm still on the team.

Oscar's still out of the country?
I thought he was back tonight.

Tonight, tomorrow,
what's the difference?

- I have to go.
- Aren't you going to say anything?

About me and Derek? Warn me?

This is something you're gonna have
to experience on your own, Ahsha.

Where is everyone else?

Oh, there is no everyone else.
it's just you.

Please.

Olivia's estate defers to Chase,
with one exception.

Her 10 percent ownership
of the Devil Girls.

She left that to me?

No.

But I was told you would know where
to find the person she did leave it to.

Who's Vanessa Howard?

My mother.

Sloane?

Sure thing, Oscar.

I'd do anything for you.

Next time on Hit the Floor:

Mother's Day is coming early.

But I never even met
this Olivia Vincent woman.

That's for Derek. Tell him
it's from Monika with a K. He'll know.

You're hiding things from me.
The groupies, the hangers-on.

Don't you wanna know
what I found about you

- in Olivia Vincent's police file?
- What did you say?

Did you go see Olivia Vincent
before she died?

I don't know
what you're talking about.

I'm investigating Oscar.
