1
00:00:04,075 --> 00:00:06,307
Into the scandalous lives
of Manhattan's elite.

2
00:00:06,377 --> 00:00:08,239
I want the movie rights
to this book,

3
00:00:08,309 --> 00:00:09,686
and since you're good friends
with the author,

4
00:00:09,710 --> 00:00:11,142
that shouldn't be a problem.

5
00:00:11,412 --> 00:00:14,145
Uh, we're not exactly
on good terms right now.

6
00:00:14,215 --> 00:00:16,263
(Dan) I told Alessandra that
I'm giving you the book rights.

7
00:00:16,287 --> 00:00:17,418
I do have one condition.

8
00:00:17,488 --> 00:00:19,189
I want to write the screenplay.

9
00:00:19,190 --> 00:00:20,291
What are those?

10
00:00:20,591 --> 00:00:22,129
My late husband Bart
had his investigator

11
00:00:22,153 --> 00:00:23,224
research our whole family.

12
00:00:23,524 --> 00:00:26,757
There's a story in that safe.
I saw it myself.

13
00:00:27,027 --> 00:00:28,227
I want to return these to you.

14
00:00:28,259 --> 00:00:30,131
And... you're not gonna
use them ever?

15
00:00:30,201 --> 00:00:32,403
Anything of value in these
was already on "gossip girl."

16
00:00:32,463 --> 00:00:34,505
"Dr. Eliza Barnes."

17
00:00:34,565 --> 00:00:35,805
You look like you need to talk.

18
00:00:36,036 --> 00:00:36,637
I do.

19
00:00:36,807 --> 00:00:38,038
You never had a childhood,

20
00:00:38,339 --> 00:00:40,087
so you behave like a child
in the worst ways.

21
00:00:40,111 --> 00:00:42,513
Your superficial connections
and lack of authentic emotion

22
00:00:42,573 --> 00:00:45,646
leave you isolated and alone.

23
00:00:45,716 --> 00:00:47,348
Throwing away your loyal family

24
00:00:47,418 --> 00:00:50,151
for a fiancee
you shouldn't trust.

25
00:00:50,221 --> 00:00:52,783
Do you really believe
she has no other secrets?

26
00:00:53,053 --> 00:00:54,561
I would never lie to you.
You know that.

27
00:00:54,585 --> 00:00:56,087
I never know with you.

28
00:00:56,287 --> 00:00:58,659
I have a problem I was hoping
you could help me with.

29
00:00:58,729 --> 00:01:01,162
I'd like to meet so I could
tell you more in person.

30
00:01:01,232 --> 00:01:03,494
I'm more than willing
to pay for your time.

31
00:01:04,565 --> 00:01:06,837
And who am I?

32
00:01:07,098 --> 00:01:10,501
That's a secret I'll never tell.

33
00:01:10,571 --> 00:01:12,503
You know you love me.

34
00:01:12,573 --> 00:01:14,505
X.o.x.o., gossip girl.

35
00:01:14,575 --> 00:01:16,507
Captioned by
closed captioning services, inc.

36
00:01:16,577 --> 00:01:20,681
(Cults' "go outside" playing)

37
00:01:20,751 --> 00:01:24,115
They say the road of life
is long and winding,

38
00:01:24,185 --> 00:01:27,318
so it's important to Mark
the milestones along your way,

39
00:01:27,388 --> 00:01:30,791
from picking your bridesmaids...

40
00:01:30,861 --> 00:01:32,293
So many minions.

41
00:01:32,363 --> 00:01:34,195
How you ever going to decide?

42
00:01:34,265 --> 00:01:36,427
Tryouts begin after breakfast.

43
00:01:36,497 --> 00:01:38,429
All right,
let's put the bar up front,

44
00:01:38,499 --> 00:01:40,171
the d.J. In back,
and the caterers

45
00:01:40,231 --> 00:01:41,272
can sit up in the bullpen

46
00:01:41,432 --> 00:01:43,234
and we toss out
those moving boxes.

47
00:01:43,304 --> 00:01:46,777
Nate, can I add one more thing
to your to-do list?

48
00:01:46,837 --> 00:01:48,579
Definitely.

49
00:01:48,639 --> 00:01:54,145
(Telephone ringing)

50
00:01:54,215 --> 00:01:57,418
To christening
your boss' new desk...

51
00:01:57,488 --> 00:01:59,720
Oh, my...

52
00:01:59,790 --> 00:02:01,452
♫♫♫

53
00:02:01,522 --> 00:02:04,755
Landing on
your first best seller list...

54
00:02:04,825 --> 00:02:06,197
Number nine.

55
00:02:06,257 --> 00:02:09,129
"Inside" by Daniel Humphrey.

56
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,333
What did, uh, Lincoln hawk's
first single debut at?

57
00:02:12,403 --> 00:02:14,735
Eight.

58
00:02:14,805 --> 00:02:16,513
Ah, but don't pay too much
attention to that stuff.

59
00:02:16,537 --> 00:02:17,537
That was the '90s.

60
00:02:17,608 --> 00:02:19,210
To finally asking for help.

61
00:02:19,270 --> 00:02:20,771
So how are you feeling today?

62
00:02:20,841 --> 00:02:22,743
♫♫♫

63
00:02:22,813 --> 00:02:24,175
Fit as a fiddle.

64
00:02:24,575 --> 00:02:26,453
But keep your eyes on the road,
upper east siders,

65
00:02:26,477 --> 00:02:29,450
or you could get lost
along the way.

66
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:30,720
That was a productive morning.

67
00:02:30,751 --> 00:02:31,951
Yeah, I got a lot accomplished

68
00:02:32,152 --> 00:02:34,225
in a short amount of time,
didn't I?

69
00:02:34,285 --> 00:02:37,388
Don't gloat. If anyone
deserves top marks, it's me.

70
00:02:37,458 --> 00:02:38,389
Mm.

71
00:02:38,459 --> 00:02:39,760
Now zip me up.

72
00:02:39,830 --> 00:02:41,662
So I was thinking about
the party tonight,

73
00:02:41,732 --> 00:02:46,437
and I was thinking that maybe
you could be my date.

74
00:02:46,497 --> 00:02:49,500
You're joking.

75
00:02:49,570 --> 00:02:51,242
You're not?

76
00:02:51,402 --> 00:02:53,280
I mean, isn't it time we finally
told the world we're a couple?

77
00:02:53,304 --> 00:02:54,821
I can't think of
a better time than tonight.

78
00:02:54,845 --> 00:02:56,347
I can't think of a worse one.

79
00:02:56,507 --> 00:02:59,580
Tonight's the public launch
of my new media empire.

80
00:02:59,650 --> 00:03:01,682
I'm showing New York City
who I am.

81
00:03:01,752 --> 00:03:04,715
Besides, we both knew
that female bosses

82
00:03:04,785 --> 00:03:06,287
can't mix business and pleasure

83
00:03:06,517 --> 00:03:08,819
without people whispering
about them behind their back.

84
00:03:08,889 --> 00:03:10,867
Okay, but I'd still like you
to meet a few of my friends.

85
00:03:10,891 --> 00:03:13,294
I mean, can we at least
talk about that?

86
00:03:13,364 --> 00:03:14,625
Of course.

87
00:03:14,695 --> 00:03:16,497
Right after
you and Charlie deliver

88
00:03:16,567 --> 00:03:19,530
the new "spectator" tablets
to all our v.I.P. Guests.

89
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:21,272
You ever heard of
a messenger service?

90
00:03:21,332 --> 00:03:22,612
So some
unattractive delivery guy

91
00:03:22,673 --> 00:03:23,834
can hand them to an assistant

92
00:03:23,904 --> 00:03:25,936
who's just gonna sell them
on ebay?

93
00:03:26,206 --> 00:03:27,338
I don't think so.

94
00:03:27,508 --> 00:03:28,439
(Groans)

95
00:03:28,509 --> 00:03:30,941
Here is your list.

96
00:03:31,211 --> 00:03:31,942
(Telephone ringing)

97
00:03:32,212 --> 00:03:33,644
Charlie?

98
00:03:33,714 --> 00:03:35,592
I mean, seriously?
This is like four pages long.

99
00:03:35,616 --> 00:03:36,817
Don't pout.

100
00:03:36,987 --> 00:03:40,991
Charlie, you are east side.
Nate, you're west.

101
00:03:41,252 --> 00:03:43,494
And I have to run because
I am late for a meeting

102
00:03:43,554 --> 00:03:46,297
with an old friend from L.A.

103
00:03:46,357 --> 00:03:48,899
I knew I shouldn't have
worn heels today.

104
00:03:48,959 --> 00:03:51,702
The dream starts
the same every time.

105
00:03:51,762 --> 00:03:53,964
They have a habit of doing that.

106
00:03:54,234 --> 00:03:55,482
I'm taking
an early morning stroll

107
00:03:55,506 --> 00:03:57,508
in my new berluti wingtips.

108
00:03:57,568 --> 00:03:58,909
I look up,

109
00:03:59,239 --> 00:04:01,572
and a block away is
the most magnificent skyscraper

110
00:04:01,642 --> 00:04:02,743
I've ever seen.

111
00:04:02,813 --> 00:04:04,845
I have to get inside it,

112
00:04:04,915 --> 00:04:07,748
but every time
I round the corner,

113
00:04:07,818 --> 00:04:10,020
it's still a block away.

114
00:04:10,281 --> 00:04:11,752
So what do you do?

115
00:04:11,822 --> 00:04:13,460
I start to run,
but as soon as I reach it...

116
00:04:13,484 --> 00:04:15,786
You wake up.

117
00:04:15,856 --> 00:04:18,559
What do you think
the dream is about?

118
00:04:18,629 --> 00:04:20,791
My father's tragic death?

119
00:04:20,861 --> 00:04:22,863
My mother's secret life?

120
00:04:22,933 --> 00:04:25,866
Or perhaps
my chronic oral fixation.

121
00:04:25,936 --> 00:04:28,569
I appreciate your sense
of humor, Charles, but...

122
00:04:28,639 --> 00:04:30,541
But you think it's just
a defense mechanism

123
00:04:30,601 --> 00:04:31,742
against intensive therapy.

124
00:04:31,872 --> 00:04:34,274
Be honest.
You know you're holding back.

125
00:04:34,345 --> 00:04:38,048
How can you be so sure
I'm hiding something?

126
00:04:38,309 --> 00:04:40,911
Maybe I'm wrong,

127
00:04:40,981 --> 00:04:43,984
but I feel there's a piece
of the puzzle still missing.

128
00:04:44,054 --> 00:04:47,788
It's not your mother
or your father.

129
00:04:47,858 --> 00:04:50,721
There's someone
you're not telling me about.

130
00:04:55,496 --> 00:04:56,427
Mmm.

131
00:04:56,497 --> 00:04:57,698
Good morning, Blair.

132
00:04:57,768 --> 00:05:00,371
Mmm. Don't you just adore us?

133
00:05:00,431 --> 00:05:04,805
(Chuckles) Why do I feel like
there's a request coming?

134
00:05:04,875 --> 00:05:07,908
Not a request.
A special dispensation.

135
00:05:07,978 --> 00:05:09,039
For what?

136
00:05:09,309 --> 00:05:10,481
Scheming and manipulating.

137
00:05:10,541 --> 00:05:12,543
Who do you work for?

138
00:05:12,613 --> 00:05:14,885
Louis, can't you just
turn a blind eye

139
00:05:14,945 --> 00:05:17,518
for... let's say 24 hours?

140
00:05:17,588 --> 00:05:18,989
Blair...

141
00:05:19,390 --> 00:05:22,523
All I'd be doing is spending
the day with my former minions.

142
00:05:22,593 --> 00:05:23,970
Maybe some
light waterboarding involved.

143
00:05:23,994 --> 00:05:26,997
But I've been so good
for so long.

144
00:05:27,057 --> 00:05:29,460
And once I'm her serene
highness of Monaco,

145
00:05:29,530 --> 00:05:31,362
all meddling will be prohibe.

146
00:05:31,432 --> 00:05:33,804
Queen b. Need last hurrah.

147
00:05:33,864 --> 00:05:35,766
Are you sure
that's such a good idea?

148
00:05:35,836 --> 00:05:37,668
Forgive me.
I've just never understood

149
00:05:37,738 --> 00:05:40,010
this Upper East Side tradition
of yours.

150
00:05:40,070 --> 00:05:43,043
I know, and that's why
we're perfect together.

151
00:05:43,113 --> 00:05:45,476
You don't have
the scheme gene like I do.

152
00:05:45,546 --> 00:05:46,717
You don't get the itch.

153
00:05:46,777 --> 00:05:47,948
Maybe it hormonal.

154
00:05:48,018 --> 00:05:50,781
Darling, it's just one day.

155
00:05:50,851 --> 00:05:52,683
Je reviens tout de suite.

156
00:05:52,753 --> 00:05:55,786
(Chuckles)
Okay. I give up.

157
00:05:55,856 --> 00:05:57,828
I'll look away.

158
00:05:57,888 --> 00:06:00,691
But only until the party
tonight.

159
00:06:00,761 --> 00:06:02,893
That's more than enough time.

160
00:06:02,963 --> 00:06:05,095
Commenced!

161
00:06:05,365 --> 00:06:09,039
Don't worry, my love.
Nobody will get hurt...

162
00:06:09,099 --> 00:06:11,902
That badly. Mmm.

163
00:06:14,144 --> 00:06:16,006
Hey, Dan's on his way up.

164
00:06:16,647 --> 00:06:19,780
Serena, I want you to meet
a dear old friend of mine...

165
00:06:19,850 --> 00:06:20,981
Diana Payne.

166
00:06:21,051 --> 00:06:22,553
Serena.

167
00:06:22,783 --> 00:06:25,385
I think you came to a party
at my house in Los Angeles,

168
00:06:25,456 --> 00:06:27,988
but I was indisposed.
So good to finally meet you.

169
00:06:28,058 --> 00:06:29,059
So nice to meet you, too.

170
00:06:29,119 --> 00:06:30,491
Serena's my latest find.

171
00:06:30,661 --> 00:06:33,594
A month ago,
her job was getting my director

172
00:06:33,664 --> 00:06:35,125
three shots over ice.

173
00:06:35,395 --> 00:06:37,828
Now I've got her optioning
best sellers for me.

174
00:06:37,898 --> 00:06:39,069
I'm going to go get

175
00:06:39,470 --> 00:06:40,677
a tart cherry juice
and call David o. Russell.

176
00:06:40,701 --> 00:06:42,433
I'll be back in time
for our meeting.

177
00:06:42,503 --> 00:06:44,805
It's such a small world.

178
00:06:44,875 --> 00:06:47,037
My good friend Nate Archibald
actually works for you,

179
00:06:47,107 --> 00:06:48,739
and my cousin, Charlie rhodes.

180
00:06:48,909 --> 00:06:52,142
Oh, yes. Well, they've both
been instrumental in helping me

181
00:06:52,412 --> 00:06:53,544
rebrand "the spectator."

182
00:06:53,614 --> 00:06:54,745
Oh.

183
00:06:55,085 --> 00:06:56,523
I hope you'll be coming
to our launch party tonight.

184
00:06:56,547 --> 00:06:57,624
Oh, no, I wasn't planning on it.

185
00:06:57,648 --> 00:06:59,019
Oh, but you should.

186
00:06:59,149 --> 00:07:02,723
In fact, someone like you
with your influence

187
00:07:02,793 --> 00:07:04,755
should have her own place
to speak her mind.

188
00:07:04,825 --> 00:07:06,927
Have you ever thought
about blogging for a web site?

189
00:07:06,997 --> 00:07:09,760
I know my readers
would love to hear

190
00:07:09,830 --> 00:07:11,431
every detail about your life.

191
00:07:11,562 --> 00:07:13,904
Oh, well, there's already
somebody who's all over that.

192
00:07:13,964 --> 00:07:16,507
I'm not really a fan
of her work.

193
00:07:16,567 --> 00:07:18,007
Gossip girl doesn't have
the monopoly

194
00:07:18,038 --> 00:07:19,670
on Serena Van Der Woodsen,
does she?

195
00:07:19,740 --> 00:07:22,072
No, but I've been hurt enough
by what she's said

196
00:07:22,142 --> 00:07:23,844
that I could never willingly
take part

197
00:07:23,914 --> 00:07:25,045
in something like that.

198
00:07:25,145 --> 00:07:26,817
I hope you'll come
to the party anyway.

199
00:07:26,877 --> 00:07:28,519
It'd be great to keep talking.

200
00:07:28,579 --> 00:07:29,579
Bye.

201
00:07:29,820 --> 00:07:31,300
As faithful minions
through the years,

202
00:07:31,652 --> 00:07:33,460
you've each earned a chance to
be immortalized as a bridesmaid

203
00:07:33,484 --> 00:07:36,627
in my royal wedding,
but legally, I must warn you,

204
00:07:36,687 --> 00:07:38,489
not everyone will survive
the tryouts.

205
00:07:38,559 --> 00:07:40,006
So I've drafted a waiver
for you to sign

206
00:07:40,030 --> 00:07:41,932
in the event of a catastrophe.

207
00:07:41,992 --> 00:07:46,537
Kati, Penelope, nice to see
constance so ably represented.

208
00:07:46,597 --> 00:07:48,499
Jessica, Columbia's finest.

209
00:07:48,569 --> 00:07:51,201
Blair, it's always been
my dream to be your bridesmaid...

210
00:07:51,471 --> 00:07:53,311
Do yourself a favor
and stop talking right now.

211
00:07:53,473 --> 00:07:56,246
Even pippa knew when
to pipe down.

212
00:07:56,507 --> 00:07:58,048
Where's Nelly yuki?

213
00:07:58,108 --> 00:08:01,051
Yale, where she got in
and you didn't,

214
00:08:01,111 --> 00:08:02,953
plus she hates you, remember?

215
00:08:03,013 --> 00:08:06,116
Well, an odd number
just won't do.

216
00:08:06,186 --> 00:08:07,718
We need another contestant.

217
00:08:07,788 --> 00:08:09,720
(Thud)

218
00:08:09,790 --> 00:08:10,791
Charlie.

219
00:08:10,861 --> 00:08:11,962
(Gasps)

220
00:08:12,022 --> 00:08:13,864
You're
the maid of honor's cousin.

221
00:08:13,924 --> 00:08:15,165
You should be in the mix, too.

222
00:08:15,225 --> 00:08:16,667
What are you doing right now?

223
00:08:16,727 --> 00:08:17,727
Nothing?

224
00:08:17,868 --> 00:08:20,100
Then get in line...
If you dare.

225
00:08:24,805 --> 00:08:28,779
(Clicking)

226
00:08:28,839 --> 00:08:31,081
(Thunder rumbling)

227
00:08:37,888 --> 00:08:40,991
Hello, doctor.

228
00:08:41,051 --> 00:08:43,123
What's this?

229
00:08:43,193 --> 00:08:44,925
The rest of what I owe you.

230
00:08:44,995 --> 00:08:46,727
I told you
it'd be worth your while.

231
00:08:46,797 --> 00:08:48,999
Now you can settle
all of your father's debts.

232
00:08:49,059 --> 00:08:50,561
What do you want me to do?

233
00:08:50,801 --> 00:08:53,263
Just make sure my fiancee
will never fall for him again.

234
00:08:53,533 --> 00:08:55,265
Louis, that's up to Blair.

235
00:08:55,535 --> 00:08:57,668
No. It's up to you

236
00:08:57,738 --> 00:08:59,870
to turn Chuck
back into the monster he was

237
00:08:59,940 --> 00:09:02,242
for the first 20 years
of his life.

238
00:09:02,312 --> 00:09:06,546
He's a time bomb.
Find his fuse and light it.

239
00:09:06,617 --> 00:09:08,148
Looks like Louis
is about to make

240
00:09:08,218 --> 00:09:12,182
young bass' road to recovery
a very bumpy ride.

241
00:09:12,252 --> 00:09:14,755
Better buckle up, Chuck.

242
00:09:21,091 --> 00:09:22,893
(Elevator bell dings,
doors open)

243
00:09:22,963 --> 00:09:25,936
Dr. Barnes,
what are you doing here?

244
00:09:25,996 --> 00:09:28,138
A house call is
a little out of the ordinary

245
00:09:28,198 --> 00:09:31,301
in my line of work,
but I felt our last interaction

246
00:09:31,571 --> 00:09:33,944
ended too abruptly.
May... may I sit?

247
00:09:34,004 --> 00:09:35,305
Of course.

248
00:09:35,746 --> 00:09:41,081
I was hoping that being
in your environment might help.

249
00:09:41,151 --> 00:09:42,829
Well, I applaud
your persistence, Dr. Barnes,

250
00:09:42,853 --> 00:09:44,855
but I've searched
the far corners of my mind,

251
00:09:44,915 --> 00:09:48,819
and I'm not hiding anything,
from you or myself.

252
00:09:48,889 --> 00:09:50,190
I'm an open book.

253
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:52,592
Then let's skip to the chapter
about Blair Waldorf.

254
00:09:52,663 --> 00:09:55,696
I live in this city.
I read the papers

255
00:09:55,766 --> 00:09:56,827
just like everyone else.

256
00:09:56,897 --> 00:09:58,068
You've done your homework,

257
00:09:58,268 --> 00:09:59,646
but I don't see
how my history with Blair

258
00:09:59,670 --> 00:10:01,331
or the tabloid fodder
it produces

259
00:10:01,601 --> 00:10:03,373
is really relevant
to my therapy.

260
00:10:03,634 --> 00:10:06,637
It's relevant if the Blair
is the source of your suffering.

261
00:10:06,707 --> 00:10:09,239
Aren't you upset
that the love of your life

262
00:10:09,309 --> 00:10:10,741
is marrying someone else?

263
00:10:10,811 --> 00:10:13,243
I let Blair go.
Let's leave it at that.

264
00:10:13,313 --> 00:10:16,046
You're actually telling me
you're not furious.

265
00:10:16,116 --> 00:10:17,848
Next chapter.

266
00:10:17,918 --> 00:10:20,120
Have you ever thought it's
your denial of these feelings

267
00:10:20,190 --> 00:10:21,992
that's giving you nightmares?

268
00:10:22,052 --> 00:10:27,027
Expressing your rage and anger
is part of your healing process.

269
00:10:27,097 --> 00:10:29,660
You can't move on
until you let it out.

270
00:10:29,730 --> 00:10:32,933
You have to face
that you didn't let Blair go.

271
00:10:33,003 --> 00:10:35,365
You lost her to someone else.

272
00:10:35,635 --> 00:10:38,108
You don't know what I did.

273
00:10:39,770 --> 00:10:41,171
But yes.

274
00:10:41,241 --> 00:10:43,143
Maybe there is something else
I need to do

275
00:10:43,213 --> 00:10:46,116
if I'm ever going to move on.

276
00:10:46,176 --> 00:10:50,681
I don't want to lie to you.
I don't want to lie to myself.

277
00:10:52,082 --> 00:10:53,784
(Sighs)

278
00:10:55,786 --> 00:10:58,328
(Rattling)

279
00:11:04,664 --> 00:11:07,768
If I've really let Blair go,

280
00:11:07,838 --> 00:11:09,369
I don't need this anymore.

281
00:11:12,102 --> 00:11:14,144
It's beautiful.

282
00:11:14,204 --> 00:11:17,447
I bought it to give to her.

283
00:11:17,708 --> 00:11:20,250
I've been keeping hold of it
ever since.

284
00:11:21,912 --> 00:11:24,885
And really what I should do
is just return it.

285
00:11:27,988 --> 00:11:30,160
If that's what you need to do,
you should do it.

286
00:11:30,220 --> 00:11:33,123
You take it. Just... give it
to charity or something.

287
00:11:33,193 --> 00:11:36,867
I don't care. Just...
Just... just take it away.

288
00:11:42,232 --> 00:11:43,473
(Snaps shut)

289
00:11:46,907 --> 00:11:48,208
Thank you.

290
00:11:57,918 --> 00:12:01,421
(Clicking)

291
00:12:02,923 --> 00:12:04,224
So, Mr. Screenwriter,

292
00:12:04,424 --> 00:12:06,857
are you ready for your
first ever development meeting?

293
00:12:06,927 --> 00:12:10,030
I think so, as long as you guys
don't want to change the ending

294
00:12:10,100 --> 00:12:11,231
or the beginning

295
00:12:11,301 --> 00:12:12,732
or all the stuff in the middle.

296
00:12:12,803 --> 00:12:15,265
Don't worry.
You'll love working with Jane.

297
00:12:15,335 --> 00:12:17,437
Ahh! (Singsongy) There he is!

298
00:12:17,507 --> 00:12:18,507
Oh! Hey.

299
00:12:18,738 --> 00:12:21,341
We're so excited. Mwah. Mwah.

300
00:12:21,411 --> 00:12:24,815
Dan, this is Natalie,
my exec at warners.

301
00:12:24,875 --> 00:12:25,946
Hi. So nice to...

302
00:12:26,016 --> 00:12:27,256
I love, love, love your book...

303
00:12:27,317 --> 00:12:28,949
The characters, the voice,

304
00:12:29,019 --> 00:12:30,380
everything.

305
00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:31,898
Honestly, you should just
transfer the novel

306
00:12:31,922 --> 00:12:32,953
straight to final draft.

307
00:12:33,023 --> 00:12:34,224
Copy, paste, done.

308
00:12:34,354 --> 00:12:36,787
Wow. Thank you.
Do you don't have any notes

309
00:12:36,857 --> 00:12:37,857
before I start writing?

310
00:12:38,058 --> 00:12:40,230
Well, we'd love
if you could open up

311
00:12:40,290 --> 00:12:42,362
the world of Upper East Side
a little bit more.

312
00:12:42,432 --> 00:12:44,394
Rich people are so hard to like.

313
00:12:44,464 --> 00:12:45,972
Maybe you can add someone
more relatable?

314
00:12:45,996 --> 00:12:47,998
I... (Chuckles)
Thought I did that already.

315
00:12:48,068 --> 00:12:49,139
I-I think Dan is referring

316
00:12:49,269 --> 00:12:51,171
to his main character,
Dylan hunter.

317
00:12:51,241 --> 00:12:53,103
He'll appeal to everyone.

318
00:12:53,173 --> 00:12:55,175
He starts off as an innocent
from Brooklyn...

319
00:12:55,245 --> 00:12:57,053
Who quotes hawthorne
and screens fellini films?

320
00:12:57,077 --> 00:12:58,378
I don't think so.

321
00:12:58,448 --> 00:13:00,280
We need a real outsider
as a hero.

322
00:13:00,350 --> 00:13:02,328
A tragic backstory would
give him more to overcome.

323
00:13:02,352 --> 00:13:03,884
Maybe he's an orphan.

324
00:13:03,954 --> 00:13:05,155
Wait. Wait...

325
00:13:05,215 --> 00:13:06,735
Now another thought
that occurred to me

326
00:13:06,817 --> 00:13:07,817
was to "glee" this up.

327
00:13:08,058 --> 00:13:10,090
You know, music...
Originals or covers.

328
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,393
Okay, stop. What's going on?
I thought we were talking about

329
00:13:13,463 --> 00:13:15,425
turning this into
an important independent film.

330
00:13:15,495 --> 00:13:17,167
Dan, relax, we're just talking.

331
00:13:17,227 --> 00:13:19,830
About turning my book
into "newsies."

332
00:13:19,900 --> 00:13:20,831
"Inside" is my life.

333
00:13:20,901 --> 00:13:22,502
And thank you so much,

334
00:13:22,572 --> 00:13:26,176
but I don't need anyone
to tell me how to write it.

335
00:13:32,042 --> 00:13:34,915
A royal wedding is more than
just the most glamorous event

336
00:13:34,985 --> 00:13:36,346
on the social calendar.

337
00:13:36,586 --> 00:13:40,190
It is also the most dangerous.
People will try to kidnap you

338
00:13:40,250 --> 00:13:42,152
and break you for the details.

339
00:13:42,222 --> 00:13:45,125
Paparazzi will tap your phones.

340
00:13:45,195 --> 00:13:47,127
I need to know who of you

341
00:13:47,197 --> 00:13:49,299
is going to crack
under the pressure.

342
00:13:49,529 --> 00:13:51,561
The contest today will simulate

343
00:13:51,831 --> 00:13:53,179
how you perform
your bridesmaids duties

344
00:13:53,203 --> 00:13:55,465
under extreme duress.

345
00:13:55,535 --> 00:13:57,367
Now fall in line!
(Blows whistle)

346
00:13:57,437 --> 00:13:58,637
Dressing me for my wedding day

347
00:13:58,869 --> 00:14:00,240
means attending
to my every need,

348
00:14:00,310 --> 00:14:01,390
no matter how big or small.

349
00:14:01,571 --> 00:14:05,375
Adjust for reception!
Cinch that train!

350
00:14:05,445 --> 00:14:08,148
Penelope... she has to pee!

351
00:14:08,218 --> 00:14:09,219
(Penelope) Okay.

352
00:14:09,479 --> 00:14:10,280
Where secret wedding location?!

353
00:14:10,350 --> 00:14:11,381
We don't know!

354
00:14:11,882 --> 00:14:12,382
Who design
Ms. Blair wedding dress?!

355
00:14:12,622 --> 00:14:13,623
We can't tell you that!

356
00:14:14,284 --> 00:14:16,256
Good one, Jessica.
Now block that baby bump!

357
00:14:16,326 --> 00:14:17,587
Blocking.

358
00:14:17,857 --> 00:14:18,989
What baby bump?

359
00:14:19,359 --> 00:14:20,937
(Blows whistle) Lets go, girls!
Faster! Who wants it?!

360
00:14:20,961 --> 00:14:23,263
You know the rules!
You trip, you're out!

361
00:14:23,333 --> 00:14:26,466
You spill, you're out!

362
00:14:26,536 --> 00:14:27,867
Whoo!

363
00:14:27,938 --> 00:14:28,938
Come on!

364
00:14:29,169 --> 00:14:31,241
Nice work, Charlie.
I like what I see.

365
00:14:31,301 --> 00:14:33,603
Yah! Ahh!

366
00:14:33,873 --> 00:14:34,905
Ow.

367
00:14:34,975 --> 00:14:36,276
Ha!

368
00:14:36,346 --> 00:14:39,209
I'm sorry. I...

369
00:14:39,279 --> 00:14:42,382
You sicken me.

370
00:14:42,452 --> 00:14:44,014
May I help you?

371
00:14:44,084 --> 00:14:46,086
Yeah. I work for Diana Payne,
and she wanted me

372
00:14:46,156 --> 00:14:49,459
to hand-deliver Keith gessen
the new "spectator" tablet.

373
00:14:49,519 --> 00:14:51,537
It'll serve as his invitation
for the party tonight.

374
00:14:51,561 --> 00:14:52,892
Keith doesn't need
an invitation,

375
00:14:53,093 --> 00:14:54,894
since he'll be attending
with Diana.

376
00:14:54,965 --> 00:14:58,228
Oh, but I'll gladly take
the tablet myself.

377
00:14:58,298 --> 00:15:01,471
Wait. So... he's going
as her date?

378
00:15:01,531 --> 00:15:04,504
Hello! They've been
going out for two months.

379
00:15:09,609 --> 00:15:11,982
I thought you worked in media.

380
00:15:13,944 --> 00:15:14,944
Hey.

381
00:15:15,245 --> 00:15:18,488
I know this morning
was a total disaster,

382
00:15:18,548 --> 00:15:20,320
but nobody blames you.

383
00:15:20,390 --> 00:15:22,192
Whatever Jane
sent you here to say,

384
00:15:22,252 --> 00:15:23,523
why don't you just say it?

385
00:15:23,923 --> 00:15:25,501
Well, we both think that
you should waive your right

386
00:15:25,525 --> 00:15:27,197
to write the script.

387
00:15:27,257 --> 00:15:29,929
Why would I do that?

388
00:15:30,000 --> 00:15:31,001
Because if you write it,

389
00:15:31,361 --> 00:15:32,638
your project will be stuck
in development hell.

390
00:15:32,662 --> 00:15:34,304
You'll write a draft.
A year later,

391
00:15:34,404 --> 00:15:36,012
you'll still be rewriting it,
and you'll never give them

392
00:15:36,036 --> 00:15:38,468
what they want because
you're too close to it.

393
00:15:38,538 --> 00:15:40,971
And that's not even the point.

394
00:15:41,041 --> 00:15:42,212
Well, it sounds like it was.

395
00:15:42,272 --> 00:15:43,573
Dan, you're a huge novelist now.

396
00:15:44,014 --> 00:15:46,476
I don't know about huge.
I mean, I'm number nine.

397
00:15:46,546 --> 00:15:48,218
And next week,
you'll be number one.

398
00:15:48,278 --> 00:15:49,479
I'll take two.
I'm not greedy.

399
00:15:49,549 --> 00:15:51,481
Seriously,
you should be focusing

400
00:15:51,551 --> 00:15:53,283
on your next best seller.

401
00:15:53,353 --> 00:15:57,357
Let us hire an "a" list writer
like... like an akiva goldsman,

402
00:15:57,427 --> 00:15:58,627
somebody who Jane can't bully,

403
00:15:58,958 --> 00:16:00,360
somebody who gets
great movies made

404
00:16:00,430 --> 00:16:02,132
and who will honor
your book faithfully.

405
00:16:02,562 --> 00:16:04,540
You really think you could get
someone like him to write it?

406
00:16:04,564 --> 00:16:05,665
Absolutely.

407
00:16:06,096 --> 00:16:07,713
Jane works with Oscar winners
all the time.

408
00:16:07,737 --> 00:16:09,069
But how can I guarantee

409
00:16:09,169 --> 00:16:10,176
that she's not just
gonna screw it up?

410
00:16:10,200 --> 00:16:11,341
Because I won't let her.

411
00:16:11,441 --> 00:16:13,643
She may not know this world,
but I do,

412
00:16:13,703 --> 00:16:16,606
and I will protect your story
and you.

413
00:16:16,676 --> 00:16:18,508
Careful, s.

414
00:16:18,578 --> 00:16:19,709
I have your word?

415
00:16:19,979 --> 00:16:21,111
You have my word.

416
00:16:21,381 --> 00:16:22,982
Everybody knows the road to hell

417
00:16:23,053 --> 00:16:25,655
is paved with good intentions

418
00:16:25,715 --> 00:16:27,757
and shady bosses.

419
00:16:34,724 --> 00:16:35,665
(Diana) Hello?

420
00:16:35,725 --> 00:16:36,666
Hey.

421
00:16:36,726 --> 00:16:37,726
There you are.

422
00:16:37,767 --> 00:16:39,229
Why aren't you back here yet?

423
00:16:39,429 --> 00:16:41,371
I got a little hung up
at Keith gessen's office.

424
00:16:41,431 --> 00:16:43,132
Were you ever even gonna

425
00:16:43,133 --> 00:16:45,011
tell me that you're bringing him
as your date tonight?

426
00:16:45,035 --> 00:16:46,406
Of course.

427
00:16:46,536 --> 00:16:48,778
I wanted to say something
this morning, but, um...

428
00:16:49,039 --> 00:16:50,380
But you were too busy
lecturing me

429
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,542
on how you can't mix
business with pleasure, right?

430
00:16:52,612 --> 00:16:56,346
Keith's just business, really.
You are both.

431
00:16:56,416 --> 00:16:57,617
But no one can know that I am.

432
00:16:57,687 --> 00:16:59,089
Not right now.

433
00:16:59,389 --> 00:17:02,052
I know you don't understand,
but you need to trust me.

434
00:17:02,122 --> 00:17:03,223
(Sighs)

435
00:17:03,293 --> 00:17:04,533
No, you know what I need to do?

436
00:17:04,594 --> 00:17:06,156
Is rethink
this whole relationship.

437
00:17:06,226 --> 00:17:07,427
(Beep)

438
00:17:07,497 --> 00:17:11,030
(Line disconnects, dial tone)

439
00:17:11,101 --> 00:17:12,802
Get me Charlie rhodes.

440
00:17:13,063 --> 00:17:15,205
Okay, Dan's off the project.

441
00:17:15,265 --> 00:17:18,508
Take a bow, Serena.

442
00:17:18,568 --> 00:17:21,271
You're a star.
How'd you accomplish it?

443
00:17:21,341 --> 00:17:22,542
Well, I just convinced him

444
00:17:22,772 --> 00:17:25,115
that... that he and his novel
would be better served

445
00:17:25,175 --> 00:17:26,716
by a top-tier screenwriter.

446
00:17:26,776 --> 00:17:28,418
And he will be.

447
00:17:28,478 --> 00:17:31,081
Sorkin's agent called
right after you left.

448
00:17:31,151 --> 00:17:33,323
(Gasps) Aaron sorkin?

449
00:17:33,383 --> 00:17:36,526
Is adapting "inside."

450
00:17:36,586 --> 00:17:37,457
Oh, my g... what?

451
00:17:37,557 --> 00:17:39,159
That's... that's incredible.

452
00:17:39,229 --> 00:17:41,261
How did you get that
to happen so fast?

453
00:17:41,331 --> 00:17:44,134
I had sorkin lined up
for a week.

454
00:17:44,194 --> 00:17:46,466
His agent and I
were just waiting.

455
00:17:46,536 --> 00:17:49,769
For... me to convince Dan
to quit?

456
00:17:49,839 --> 00:17:54,073
So this explains your
"inside: The musical" pitch.

457
00:17:54,144 --> 00:17:57,377
Come on. I always knew that Dan
was never going to work out.

458
00:17:57,447 --> 00:18:00,180
I just gave him a little nudge.
Be happy.

459
00:18:00,250 --> 00:18:01,651
Sorkin is a good thing.

460
00:18:02,112 --> 00:18:06,356
I just wish we could have spared
everyone the drama this morning.

461
00:18:06,416 --> 00:18:08,488
Are you kidding?
Dan coming in this morning

462
00:18:08,558 --> 00:18:10,720
did more for this project
than you'll ever know.

463
00:18:10,790 --> 00:18:12,292
Why?

464
00:18:12,492 --> 00:18:15,125
Because we got to see what
this movie should really be.

465
00:18:15,195 --> 00:18:17,427
A self-important teenager

466
00:18:17,497 --> 00:18:21,100
who betrays his friends
for fame and fortune.

467
00:18:21,171 --> 00:18:24,174
"Inside" will be
the next "social network."

468
00:18:24,234 --> 00:18:25,775
We're going to zuckerberg him.

469
00:18:25,835 --> 00:18:28,408
Jane, this... this isn't fair.

470
00:18:28,478 --> 00:18:31,241
I prefer to let the audience
decide what's fair or not.

471
00:18:31,311 --> 00:18:32,882
Dan is not like that.

472
00:18:33,143 --> 00:18:34,460
Why don't I put a dinner
on the books

473
00:18:34,484 --> 00:18:36,146
for all of us?
And this way, you'll see.

474
00:18:36,216 --> 00:18:38,348
The next time I see Dan
will be at cannes

475
00:18:38,418 --> 00:18:42,222
when I'm shaking
his grateful hand on the dais.

476
00:18:42,292 --> 00:18:46,696
I have a call to make.
See you at the party tonight?

477
00:18:48,898 --> 00:18:50,630
Congratulations, girls.

478
00:18:50,700 --> 00:18:52,402
You've survived
the most physically

479
00:18:52,462 --> 00:18:54,664
and mentally challenging day
of your lives,

480
00:18:54,734 --> 00:18:58,137
and all you have to show for it
are a few bruises.

481
00:18:58,208 --> 00:19:00,139
Now for the final round,

482
00:19:00,210 --> 00:19:03,243
you will be accompanying me
and my prince

483
00:19:03,313 --> 00:19:06,346
to the fabulous "spectator"
launch party tonight.

484
00:19:06,416 --> 00:19:07,416
(Gasps)

485
00:19:07,577 --> 00:19:08,824
We're going to play
a little game

486
00:19:08,848 --> 00:19:10,180
with one of the guests there.

487
00:19:10,250 --> 00:19:11,251
Well, who's the target?

488
00:19:11,351 --> 00:19:12,822
A boy, of course.

489
00:19:12,882 --> 00:19:14,153
I'm listening.

490
00:19:14,284 --> 00:19:15,685
At the wedding,
you'll be the apple

491
00:19:15,755 --> 00:19:18,458
of every bachelor's eye.

492
00:19:18,528 --> 00:19:21,191
So I need to know who
is going to bag a baron

493
00:19:21,261 --> 00:19:22,932
and who's going to embarrass me.

494
00:19:23,193 --> 00:19:24,834
With a busboy.

495
00:19:24,894 --> 00:19:26,165
Exactly.

496
00:19:26,236 --> 00:19:27,497
So...

497
00:19:27,567 --> 00:19:29,839
Tonight, whoever's the first
to get a kiss

498
00:19:29,899 --> 00:19:32,702
from one of New York's
most eligible bachelors

499
00:19:32,772 --> 00:19:38,248
wins the right to call herself
my... royal bridesmaid.

500
00:19:38,308 --> 00:19:40,850
So tell us, who is it?

501
00:19:40,910 --> 00:19:45,285
Dorota?
Will you do the honors?

502
00:19:46,786 --> 00:19:48,558
(Jessica and Penelope gasp)

503
00:19:48,618 --> 00:19:50,660
Nate Archibald!

504
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,292
I am so all over this.

505
00:19:52,362 --> 00:19:54,864
(Cell phone vibrating)

506
00:19:54,924 --> 00:19:56,195
Yes! Yes.

507
00:19:56,266 --> 00:19:57,196
Oh, my god.

508
00:19:57,267 --> 00:19:58,197
(Singsongy) So excited!

509
00:19:58,268 --> 00:19:59,198
My life...

510
00:19:59,269 --> 00:20:00,530
(Lowered voice) Hello?

511
00:20:00,700 --> 00:20:03,533
Why is Nate calling me
from Keith gessen's office?

512
00:20:03,603 --> 00:20:06,205
All I asked you to do was
make a few simple deliveries

513
00:20:06,276 --> 00:20:07,877
to a few specific people,

514
00:20:07,937 --> 00:20:08,878
and you botched it.

515
00:20:08,938 --> 00:20:10,440
I know.

516
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:13,613
I'm so sorry, but Blair's
having a competition

517
00:20:13,683 --> 00:20:16,616
to pick her bridesmaids,
and if I win,

518
00:20:16,686 --> 00:20:19,749
I can cover the royal wedding
for "the spectator."

519
00:20:19,819 --> 00:20:23,323
Then you'd better win,
for your sake.

520
00:20:23,393 --> 00:20:26,856
I just... have one more task
to complete.

521
00:20:28,798 --> 00:20:30,800
(Cell phone rings, beep)

522
00:20:30,860 --> 00:20:32,502
Hey.

523
00:20:32,562 --> 00:20:33,562
Hey.

524
00:20:33,603 --> 00:20:34,604
Uh, are you free tonight?

525
00:20:35,335 --> 00:20:36,542
Jane was... was hoping that
you would be my guest

526
00:20:36,566 --> 00:20:38,608
to "the spectator" party.

527
00:20:38,668 --> 00:20:39,769
Let me guess.

528
00:20:40,239 --> 00:20:41,817
Jane loves me again
now that I quit the movie.

529
00:20:41,841 --> 00:20:43,943
I think she just wants

530
00:20:44,013 --> 00:20:45,775
The real you.

531
00:20:45,845 --> 00:20:47,647
So be super nice, okay?

532
00:20:47,717 --> 00:20:49,919
(Chuckles) I'm always nice.
Yeah, I'll see you tonight.

533
00:20:49,979 --> 00:20:53,923
Spotted... s. Trying to navigate
a slippery slope.

534
00:20:53,983 --> 00:20:58,328
But she's not the only accident
waiting to happen.

(Elevator bell dings,

536
00:21:01,331 --> 00:21:04,694
Hey. Did you get my texts?

537
00:21:04,764 --> 00:21:08,398
Oh. I... turned my phone off,
actually.

538
00:21:08,468 --> 00:21:10,340
(Sighs) Are you okay?

539
00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:13,042
I'm, uh... I'm good.

540
00:21:13,303 --> 00:21:14,974
He says, teeth clenched.

541
00:21:15,044 --> 00:21:17,647
Come on. Let me help.

542
00:21:17,707 --> 00:21:20,310
I'm really good
with other people's problems.

543
00:21:20,380 --> 00:21:23,413
Not so much my own, but...

544
00:21:23,513 --> 00:21:26,486
Well, there's this...
There's this girl.

545
00:21:26,556 --> 00:21:29,719
And I asked her to be my date
to the party tonight.

546
00:21:29,789 --> 00:21:31,060
And she said "no."

547
00:21:31,321 --> 00:21:32,862
Which was fine,

548
00:21:32,922 --> 00:21:35,795
until I find out that
she's bringing another guy.

549
00:21:35,865 --> 00:21:38,828
Do you think that she's trying
to let you down easy?

550
00:21:38,898 --> 00:21:41,831
Easy's not her style, no.

551
00:21:41,901 --> 00:21:44,303
Well, then she's trying
to make you jealous.

552
00:21:44,374 --> 00:21:46,376
Trust me, Nate.
We're all the same.

553
00:21:46,436 --> 00:21:48,338
Okay, so what do I do?

554
00:21:48,408 --> 00:21:51,411
Fight fire with fire.

555
00:21:53,413 --> 00:21:55,645
Take me as your date.

556
00:21:58,388 --> 00:21:59,508
Well, no.
I wouldn't wanna...

557
00:21:59,619 --> 00:22:00,766
I wouldn't wanna ruin
your night. I...

558
00:22:00,790 --> 00:22:04,794
You won't.
Pick me up at 6:00.

559
00:22:10,059 --> 00:22:14,734
Whew. (Laughs) You're getting
excited, aren't you?

560
00:22:14,804 --> 00:22:16,041
You're getting excited.
Come on.

561
00:22:16,065 --> 00:22:18,738
Dr. Barnes.

562
00:22:18,808 --> 00:22:20,570
You shouldn't be here.

563
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:23,443
And I wouldn't be, if you
answered any of my calls.

564
00:22:23,513 --> 00:22:24,914
I told you, I'm done.

565
00:22:24,974 --> 00:22:27,777
I can't be responsible
for destroying a young man

566
00:22:27,847 --> 00:22:30,520
who's doing everything he can
to heal himself.

567
00:22:30,580 --> 00:22:32,482
And what about our deal?

568
00:22:32,552 --> 00:22:35,485
As much as it would have helped,
here's your refund.

please record your message.

573

Dr. Barnes, it's Chuck.

574
00:22:55,675 --> 00:22:57,947
I think I'm in trouble.

575
00:22:58,007 --> 00:22:59,779
Can you meet me tonight?

576
00:22:59,849 --> 00:23:01,911
Because when you drive Chuck
over the edge,

577
00:23:01,981 --> 00:23:05,615
it's you who will wind up
roadkill.

Serena, look, I found Dan.
Did you already tell him

620
00:24:48,057 --> 00:24:49,619
we got sorkin to write
the movie?

621
00:24:49,689 --> 00:24:52,021
What? No.
That's incredible.

622

I know. Now your character will
talk even faster than you do.

and tell her?

I just wanted you
to get to know the real Dan.

He... he's... genuine
and caring and funny.

Whoa!

705
00:28:06,355 --> 00:28:07,957
Oh! (Gasps)

706
00:28:08,187 --> 00:28:12,161
Penelope! What did I tell you
about consorting with the help?

707
00:28:12,221 --> 00:28:13,292
You're dismissed.

708
00:28:13,362 --> 00:28:14,824
(Chuckles)

709
00:28:18,768 --> 00:28:21,931
What? It's not my fault
she tripped.

710
00:28:33,082 --> 00:28:34,413
Hey. Uh, you leaving already?

711
00:28:34,483 --> 00:28:35,885
I'm sorry. I have to go.

712
00:28:36,085 --> 00:28:36,946
I was hoping we could
talk more about the movie.

713
00:28:37,046 --> 00:28:38,347
What movie? It's dead.

714
00:28:38,717 --> 00:28:41,791
If you want to know why,
talk to your friend Serena.

715
00:28:43,492 --> 00:28:46,025
(Glass clinking)

716
00:28:46,095 --> 00:28:48,357
I know the night's still young
and the bar's still open,

717
00:28:48,427 --> 00:28:51,460
but I wanted to take a moment
to thank everybody for coming.

718
00:28:51,730 --> 00:28:52,962
It means so much to me

719
00:28:53,162 --> 00:28:54,880
to know that if a bomb went off
right this second,

720
00:28:54,904 --> 00:28:56,365
New York media would be over.

721
00:28:56,435 --> 00:28:59,408
(Laughter)

722
00:28:59,468 --> 00:29:02,141
Hey. Thanks for
being my date.

723
00:29:02,211 --> 00:29:04,814
Of course.
I just hope we were able

724
00:29:04,874 --> 00:29:06,946
to make whoever you're seeing
jealous.

725
00:29:07,016 --> 00:29:09,278
I don't know. I don't even
think she really cared.

726
00:29:09,348 --> 00:29:10,780
Let's make her care.

727
00:29:10,850 --> 00:29:11,997
(Diana)
In lifestyle reporting.

728
00:29:12,021 --> 00:29:13,953
I'm game if you are.

729
00:29:14,023 --> 00:29:16,055
Yeah?

730
00:29:16,125 --> 00:29:18,457
We are going to be different
from "gossip girl"

731
00:29:18,527 --> 00:29:20,790
and other anonymous sites

732
00:29:20,860 --> 00:29:25,034
which traffic
in damaging rumors and innuendo.

733
00:29:26,465 --> 00:29:29,168
I'm sorry. (Chuckles)
Where was I?

734
00:29:29,238 --> 00:29:30,269
Um...

735
00:29:30,800 --> 00:29:33,873
The "spectator"
is only going to print facts.

736
00:29:33,943 --> 00:29:36,105
If you did it,

737
00:29:36,175 --> 00:29:38,848
you deserve to get caught,

738
00:29:38,908 --> 00:29:40,379
and we're gonna catch you.

739
00:29:40,449 --> 00:29:43,853
So with apologies
to my other esteemed editors,

740
00:29:43,913 --> 00:29:47,516
starting tonight, I'm gonna
be poaching your best reporters

741
00:29:47,786 --> 00:29:49,989
and stealing
all your best stories.

742
00:29:50,059 --> 00:29:51,991
I have a story for you.

743
00:29:52,061 --> 00:29:54,193
So let's hear it, Mr. Bass.

744
00:29:54,263 --> 00:29:58,127
My therapist, Dr. Eliza Barnes,
has been using hypnosis

745
00:29:58,197 --> 00:30:01,800
to coerce me into performing...
Unspeakable acts.

746
00:30:01,871 --> 00:30:03,402
I am Dr. Barnes,

747
00:30:03,472 --> 00:30:06,435
and I promise you
that none of this is true.

748
00:30:06,505 --> 00:30:08,507
It's okay, Chuck.

749
00:30:08,577 --> 00:30:13,242
Y-you're in a very vulnerable
psychological state right now.

750
00:30:13,312 --> 00:30:14,312
I wonder why.

751
00:30:14,543 --> 00:30:17,386
Maybe because I just found out

752
00:30:17,446 --> 00:30:19,248
you were taking money

753
00:30:19,318 --> 00:30:23,422
to reveal confidential
information about me.

754
00:30:23,492 --> 00:30:26,425
Now that's a story
I can print...

755
00:30:26,495 --> 00:30:27,826
If you have proof.

756
00:30:27,897 --> 00:30:30,029
Chuck, stop.

757
00:30:30,099 --> 00:30:32,001
Why are you doing this?

758
00:30:32,061 --> 00:30:34,563
If you don't believe me,

759
00:30:34,833 --> 00:30:37,506
you should ask your fiance.

760
00:30:39,068 --> 00:30:41,110
He's the one who paid her.

761
00:30:41,170 --> 00:30:42,341
Don't worry, b.

762
00:30:42,471 --> 00:30:44,543
You're still marrying
a prince...

763
00:30:44,613 --> 00:30:46,375
Of fools.

764
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,182
Blair, wait.

765
00:30:53,252 --> 00:30:54,692
Please, I know how upset
you must be.

766
00:30:54,853 --> 00:30:57,486
(Sighs) After all this arguing
about my scheming,

767
00:30:57,556 --> 00:30:59,328
what you've been doing
is even worse.

768
00:30:59,388 --> 00:31:00,459
But I can explain.

769
00:31:01,130 --> 00:31:03,062
What possible explanation
could you have for...

770
00:31:03,132 --> 00:31:05,194
Paying Chuck's therapist
to spy on him?

771
00:31:05,264 --> 00:31:07,536
I found the paternity test...

772
00:31:09,038 --> 00:31:10,869
The one that you'd torn
to pieces.

773
00:31:10,940 --> 00:31:12,471
Oh, my god.

774
00:31:12,541 --> 00:31:15,404
You didn't tell me you weren't
sure who the father was.

775
00:31:15,474 --> 00:31:17,476
No, I...

776
00:31:17,546 --> 00:31:18,948
I had to get the test.

777
00:31:19,108 --> 00:31:21,250
Yeah, so you could decide
who to be with?

778
00:31:21,310 --> 00:31:24,383
No. So we both could have
peace of mind,

779
00:31:24,453 --> 00:31:28,357
knowing that what I prayed for
in my heart was true.

780
00:31:31,260 --> 00:31:34,964
The paternity test showed me
that some part of you thought

781
00:31:35,024 --> 00:31:38,027
you might still
have a choice to make.

782
00:31:38,097 --> 00:31:39,228
And I needed you to see

783
00:31:39,428 --> 00:31:43,332
that Chuck will always be
the wrong one.

784
00:31:45,174 --> 00:31:47,506
(Sighs) Louis...

785
00:31:47,576 --> 00:31:51,640
I don't know how many
more times I can say this,

786
00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:54,443
but Chuck and I can never work.

787
00:31:54,513 --> 00:31:57,686
You know that for certain?

788
00:31:57,947 --> 00:31:59,918
I do.

789
00:31:59,989 --> 00:32:01,450
So does he.

790
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:04,193
And so should you.

791
00:32:04,253 --> 00:32:07,997
Chuck destroys everything
and everybody in his life.

792
00:32:08,057 --> 00:32:11,030
And he'll never change.

793
00:32:11,100 --> 00:32:14,103
But what's scaring me is that..

794
00:32:14,163 --> 00:32:16,205
You're changing into him.

795
00:32:22,441 --> 00:32:26,045
(The uglysuit's "on we go"
playing)

796
00:32:26,115 --> 00:32:28,347
Did you just kill my movie?

797
00:32:28,417 --> 00:32:30,579
Only because
I had no other choice.

798
00:32:30,649 --> 00:32:31,981
But I did it for you.

799
00:32:32,051 --> 00:32:33,422
For me? Are you kidding?

800
00:32:33,482 --> 00:32:34,482
Listen, please...

801
00:32:34,523 --> 00:32:35,523
Tell me one thing.

802
00:32:36,155 --> 00:32:37,362
Was this your plan
from the very beginning?

803
00:32:37,386 --> 00:32:38,687
What?

804
00:32:39,088 --> 00:32:40,465
Admit it. You hate your
character in the book so much

805
00:32:40,489 --> 00:32:42,631
you couldn't stand to see this
made into a movie.

806
00:32:42,691 --> 00:32:44,433
Millions of people
might judge you,

807
00:32:44,493 --> 00:32:46,495
and we all know
how much you like that.

808
00:32:46,565 --> 00:32:47,736
Actually, for the record,

809
00:32:48,337 --> 00:32:50,445
having the project killed
had nothing to do with my image

810
00:32:50,469 --> 00:32:52,071
and everything to do with yours.

811
00:32:52,141 --> 00:32:54,573
Jane was gonna do
a hatchet job on you,

812
00:32:54,643 --> 00:32:57,046
and now I'm gonna get fired
for stopping her.

813
00:32:57,106 --> 00:33:01,350
♫♫♫

814
00:33:01,410 --> 00:33:02,651
That was fun.

815
00:33:02,711 --> 00:33:04,053
More fun that you expected?

816
00:33:04,183 --> 00:33:05,490
A lot more.
I mean, maybe we should

817
00:33:05,514 --> 00:33:06,631
just stage
another make-out session.

818
00:33:06,655 --> 00:33:07,686
You know, just for us.

819
00:33:07,756 --> 00:33:08,756
(Laughs)

820
00:33:08,987 --> 00:33:10,089
Congratulations!

821
00:33:10,159 --> 00:33:12,391
Looks like you won
Blair's contest.

822
00:33:12,461 --> 00:33:14,123
Wait, what?
What is she talking about?

823
00:33:14,193 --> 00:33:15,724
Oh. Didn't you know?

824
00:33:15,994 --> 00:33:18,397
This was all a game.

825
00:33:18,467 --> 00:33:19,498
Charlie only kissed you

826
00:33:19,998 --> 00:33:21,676
so she could be
one of Blair's bridesmaids.

827
00:33:21,700 --> 00:33:23,502
For the "spectator," of course.

828
00:33:23,572 --> 00:33:25,234
Oh.

829
00:33:25,304 --> 00:33:28,077
Guess she left that part out.

830
00:33:29,208 --> 00:33:31,280
Nate, I'm sorry.

831
00:33:31,340 --> 00:33:32,741
Oh. Don't fret, Charlie.

832
00:33:33,082 --> 00:33:35,744
I'm sure Nate wasn't completely
honest with you either.

833
00:33:36,014 --> 00:33:38,347
Were you, honey?

834
00:33:42,421 --> 00:33:43,622
Ahem!

835
00:33:44,153 --> 00:33:45,630
Right then. I'd better get back
to my real date.

836
00:33:45,654 --> 00:33:49,428
Keep up the good work, Charlie.

837
00:33:49,498 --> 00:33:51,400
Cheers.

838
00:33:51,460 --> 00:33:53,762
What, so you used me
to get a story?

839
00:33:54,032 --> 00:33:57,536
The "girl" you're seeing
is our boss?!

840
00:33:57,606 --> 00:33:59,068
(Sighs)

841
00:33:59,138 --> 00:34:03,372
Well, if it isn't
the good doctor.

842
00:34:03,442 --> 00:34:06,675
I thought you should know
I'm gonna shut down my practice.

843
00:34:06,745 --> 00:34:08,277
Why?

844
00:34:08,347 --> 00:34:10,549
I know people say therapy's
a waste of time,

845
00:34:10,619 --> 00:34:13,522
but you did wonders
with my trust issues.

846
00:34:13,582 --> 00:34:14,753
I understand you're angry.

847
00:34:14,823 --> 00:34:17,186
I don't expect you
to ever forgive me.

848
00:34:17,356 --> 00:34:19,288
I just thought you should know

849
00:34:19,358 --> 00:34:22,060
Louis wasn't paying me
for information alone.

850
00:34:22,131 --> 00:34:24,263
He wanted me
to drive you into a rage,

851
00:34:24,333 --> 00:34:28,197
to turn you into this monster
you apparently used to be.

852
00:34:28,267 --> 00:34:29,768
Louis is so threatened by you

853
00:34:29,838 --> 00:34:32,101
that he wanted to remind Blair...

854
00:34:32,171 --> 00:34:33,672
Why she chose him.

855
00:34:35,174 --> 00:34:36,675
Maybe Louis is right.

856
00:34:36,745 --> 00:34:39,208
He doesn't have to be.

857
00:34:39,278 --> 00:34:40,609
You can change.

858
00:34:40,849 --> 00:34:44,783
Do you remember this morning
when I asked you about Blair?

859
00:34:44,853 --> 00:34:46,685
I was trying to provoke you.

860
00:34:46,755 --> 00:34:49,118
But you chose something else,

861
00:34:49,188 --> 00:34:52,191
something better.

862
00:34:52,261 --> 00:34:53,822
You chose to let go.

863
00:34:54,092 --> 00:34:56,425
Continue down that road,

864
00:34:56,495 --> 00:34:58,327
and I'll bet you'll find
some peace.

865
00:34:58,397 --> 00:35:01,400
I've always wondered
what that felt like.

866
00:35:01,470 --> 00:35:03,572
Good luck.

867
00:35:06,175 --> 00:35:08,807
And I'm sorry.

868
00:35:08,877 --> 00:35:10,539
I really did want to help.

869
00:35:12,481 --> 00:35:17,316
Spotted... Chuck bass
standing at the crossroads.

870
00:35:17,386 --> 00:35:21,850
Looks like we're gonna
have to watch his every step.

871
00:35:29,428 --> 00:35:30,659
Serena...

872
00:35:30,899 --> 00:35:33,902
Word on the street is
you're back on the job market.

873
00:35:34,163 --> 00:35:36,405
You don't waste any time,
do you?

874
00:35:36,465 --> 00:35:37,585
Not when I know what I want.

875
00:35:37,736 --> 00:35:40,339
There must be some way
I can convince you

876
00:35:40,409 --> 00:35:41,870
to write a blog
for "the spectator."

877
00:35:42,140 --> 00:35:44,142
Not if it's about
the Upper East Side

878
00:35:44,213 --> 00:35:46,445
or anyone who lives there,
including me.

879
00:35:46,515 --> 00:35:50,579
I'm sorry. I know
that I owe you a favor,

880
00:35:50,649 --> 00:35:54,523
but I don't wanna be
the next gossip girl.

881
00:35:54,583 --> 00:35:57,356
I-I don't believe
in attacking people online

882
00:35:57,426 --> 00:35:58,757
and spreading rumors.

883
00:35:58,827 --> 00:36:00,158
Neither do I,

884
00:36:00,489 --> 00:36:02,791
which is why I wanna take
gossip girl down.

885
00:36:02,861 --> 00:36:05,664
How? Everyone reads her,

886
00:36:05,734 --> 00:36:08,237
and whether they admit it
or not, everyone posts.

887
00:36:08,297 --> 00:36:09,638
This city is addicted to her.

888
00:36:09,698 --> 00:36:12,641
Only because she writes
about people like you.

889
00:36:12,701 --> 00:36:15,304
Think about it.

890
00:36:15,374 --> 00:36:16,705
If you and your friends

891
00:36:16,805 --> 00:36:19,778
are the main reason
people care about gossip girl,

892
00:36:19,848 --> 00:36:21,510
and starting tomorrow,

893
00:36:21,580 --> 00:36:24,653
everyone can read about you
straight from the source,

894
00:36:24,713 --> 00:36:27,486
that would make "gossip girl"
irrelevant, wouldn't it?

895
00:36:27,556 --> 00:36:29,888
I don't know.

896
00:36:29,958 --> 00:36:32,291
Yes, you do.

897
00:36:32,361 --> 00:36:35,664
Serena, this is a chance
to have your own voice,

898
00:36:35,724 --> 00:36:40,529
to stop the lies and to finally
control your own image.

899
00:36:40,599 --> 00:36:43,932
Aren't you tired of swimming
in gossip girl's fishbowl?

900
00:36:44,202 --> 00:36:46,975
(Indistinct conversations)

901
00:36:47,236 --> 00:36:49,278
Well, I'd have to do it
my own way.

902
00:36:49,338 --> 00:36:51,380
I'd expect nothing less.

903
00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:53,742
Come by tomorrow,
and we'll brainstorm together.

904
00:36:53,812 --> 00:36:55,684
Okay.

905
00:36:55,744 --> 00:36:57,686
Good night.

906
00:36:57,746 --> 00:36:59,217
Good night.

907
00:37:04,893 --> 00:37:06,555
No more games.

908
00:37:06,625 --> 00:37:07,956
No more secrets.

909
00:37:08,226 --> 00:37:09,234
Either we're in this
for the world to see,

910
00:37:09,258 --> 00:37:12,230
or we end this right here.

911
00:37:18,667 --> 00:37:21,510
Somebody here to apologize.

912
00:37:21,570 --> 00:37:22,947
Well, I can't say I want
to hear it right now,

913
00:37:22,971 --> 00:37:25,814
but... tell Louis
I'll see him upstairs.

914
00:37:25,874 --> 00:37:27,316
Not Louis.

915
00:37:27,376 --> 00:37:31,980
(Lana del Rey's "video games"
playing)

916
00:37:32,250 --> 00:37:33,652
What are you doing here?

917
00:37:33,782 --> 00:37:36,855
I-I don't have the energy
to rehash tonight's hysterics.

918
00:37:36,925 --> 00:37:38,457
I think you should leave.

919
00:37:38,627 --> 00:37:41,560
I'm not here to apologize
about what happened tonight.

920
00:37:41,630 --> 00:37:45,964
Then... what are you here
to apologize for?

921
00:37:46,034 --> 00:37:48,266
Everything else.

922
00:37:48,337 --> 00:37:50,939
♫ Open up a beer ♫

923
00:37:50,999 --> 00:37:52,741
I'm sorry for losing my temper

924
00:37:52,801 --> 00:37:55,544
the night you told me
Louis proposed to you.

925
00:37:55,604 --> 00:37:57,706
♫ I'm in his favorite... ♫

926
00:37:57,776 --> 00:38:01,450
I'm sorry for not waiting longer

♫ ...That body downtown ♫

928
00:38:03,712 --> 00:38:06,054
I'm sorry for treating you

♫ ...The bestest,

930
00:38:09,588 --> 00:38:11,520
I'm sorry...

00:38:11,590 --> 00:38:12,691
(Sighs)

932
00:38:12,991 --> 00:38:15,764
I didn't tell you
I loved you when I knew I did.

933
00:38:15,824 --> 00:38:19,828
♫ It's you, it's you,
it's all for you ♫

934
00:38:19,898 --> 00:38:21,630
But most of all, I'm sorry

935
00:38:21,700 --> 00:38:25,404
that I gave up on us
when you never did.

936

♫ I heard that you like... ♫

940
00:38:34,843 --> 00:38:35,843

♫ The bad girls, honey ♫

942
00:38:37,986 --> 00:38:40,419
I hope never giving up on people

943
00:38:40,489 --> 00:38:42,320
isn't gonna be my downfall.

944
00:38:42,391 --> 00:38:45,053
That's why you're going to be
an amazing mother.

945
00:38:45,323 --> 00:38:48,457
You're always there
for the people you love,

946
00:38:48,527 --> 00:38:50,459

You know that's never

00:38:55,333 --> 00:38:58,367
It's okay if it has to.

950
00:38:58,437 --> 00:39:02,611
Starting tonight, I'm going to
take care of myself.

♫♫♫

952
00:39:04,713 --> 00:39:05,713
Is that all?

953
00:39:05,974 --> 00:39:08,477

955
00:39:11,650 --> 00:39:12,650
Yeah.

♫ Of fun, playing video games ♫

957
00:39:15,984 --> 00:39:18,857
They say every road
comes to an end,

958
00:39:18,927 --> 00:39:23,131
but sometimes the end feels
just like the beginning,

959
00:39:23,392 --> 00:39:25,434
even when you think
you've come a long way...

960
00:39:25,494 --> 00:39:28,937
Dad? What, uh,
what are you still doing here?

961
00:39:28,997 --> 00:39:32,370
Mm. After I talked to you
at the party,

962
00:39:32,441 --> 00:39:33,802
Jonathan karp called.

963
00:39:33,972 --> 00:39:37,746
He got an advance copy of
next week's best seller list.

964
00:39:37,806 --> 00:39:40,148
I'm not number one.

965
00:39:40,409 --> 00:39:41,650
Did I go up at all?

966
00:39:41,710 --> 00:39:43,552
You dropped off the list.

967
00:39:43,612 --> 00:39:45,584
But when I told him
the news about Aaron sorkin,

968
00:39:45,654 --> 00:39:47,586
he said a big movie deal
announcement like that

969
00:39:47,656 --> 00:39:49,494
will have the books
flying off the shelves again.

970
00:39:49,518 --> 00:39:52,691
The movie's dead, dad.
It's over. I'm... I'm done.

971
00:39:52,761 --> 00:39:56,725
You can suddenly find yourself
right back where you started,

972
00:39:56,795 --> 00:39:58,497
because every journey

973
00:39:58,567 --> 00:40:00,999
is fraught
with twists and turns...

974
00:40:01,069 --> 00:40:02,571
You know, Charlie,

975
00:40:02,631 --> 00:40:04,703
you're becoming more trouble
than you're worth.

976
00:40:04,773 --> 00:40:09,608
I had no idea you were the one
Nate was trying to make jealous.

977
00:40:09,678 --> 00:40:13,011
I just wanted to get the inside
scoop on Blair's wedding.

978
00:40:13,081 --> 00:40:14,443
Well...

979
00:40:14,513 --> 00:40:16,485
(Sets glass down)
Now you know,

980
00:40:16,545 --> 00:40:18,747
and so does the rest
of the world.

981
00:40:18,817 --> 00:40:21,189
Nate's mine.

982
00:40:30,499 --> 00:40:32,060
Do I make myself clear?

983
00:40:33,031 --> 00:40:34,503
Good.

984
00:40:34,763 --> 00:40:37,566
Because I'd hate to have
to run a story tomorrow

985
00:40:37,636 --> 00:40:38,837
about a poor girl from Florida

986
00:40:39,107 --> 00:40:41,610
who Clark rockefeller'ed
the Upper East Side.

987
00:40:41,670 --> 00:40:46,114
And one false step
could spell disaster.

988
00:40:48,446 --> 00:40:50,048
But no matter what...

989
00:40:53,081 --> 00:40:55,884
You still have
to stay the course

990
00:40:55,954 --> 00:40:58,557
and forge your own path.

991
00:40:58,627 --> 00:41:01,990
No, Louis,
I-I know you're sorry.

992
00:41:02,060 --> 00:41:04,192
You should go on your trip.

993
00:41:04,462 --> 00:41:05,994
We can talk when you get back.

994
00:41:06,064 --> 00:41:08,797
Promise.

995
00:41:08,867 --> 00:41:11,600
Besides, a few days apart
would be good for us.

996
00:41:11,670 --> 00:41:14,773

no going back now.
