MADDI: Previously on Southern Hospitality...
I'm trying to hold you accountable because I love you.
...Joe and I finally made up...
I cope with my stress and my anxiety
with drinking too much, and I-- I acknowledge that.
It's a real problem.
- I need your support. - MADDI: I love you.
...just in time for him to say goodbye to his twenties.
- Welcome to Emo Night! - [cheering]
MADDI: And even though Justin moved on with Charley...
I don't wanna talk to that bitch!
MADDI: ...the mess between Mia and Lake
continued to spill over.
- Stop pointing at me! - I'm looking at you!
- Lake, Lake, Lake! - Whoa, no, no, no!
Get out of my face.
You threatened me, you stalked me.
MADDI: And while Emmy couldn't stop
running around town bashing Brad...
Why'd you use those words to describe Bradley?
- I didn't-- - Again!
MADDI: ...I was busy leveling up my career.
We got the gig in Punta Cana.
That's hype as [bleep].
- Your whole plan! - Literally my whole plan!
MADDI: Will you help me plan the trip?
- MICHOLS: Yes. - DJ Maddi Reese is
going international.

JOE: See, y'all, this is good therapy right here.
Going from Emo Night
- to ----ing golf. - Oh, wow.
Yeah, what do you think about my wig, Joe?
- JOE: I loved it, dude. - Yeah?
I'm so grateful, like, how into it you guys got.
That meant the world to me.
I feel like I was really turning it on.
- [Joe laughs] - BRAD: I'm proud of you, Joe.
JOE: Thank you.
Oh, sh--.
I think I was being a little dramatic
about the whole 30 thing.
I don't feel any different.
My neck's stiff from, I think, like,
crowd surfing or something.
My back is still hurting,
but my back was hurting in my twenties, so...
yeah, I'm a drama queen.
I know I've kind of made this whole month about,
like, my birthday, and you know Maddi is also a Leo.
But I feel like deep down, it's kind of, like,
eating her up, that it's like, "Where's my birthday party?"
- MICHOLS: Yeah. - So, my buddy is letting us
- go on his yacht. - Oh, yeah!
JOE: I'm just gonna have, like, a pirate-themed yacht party,
- surprising her. - Another year, another booty.
- I love that. - Arr.

Hello, my people.
How are you?
Everyone, these are my beautiful friends.

Do they have a table?
MICHOLS: Okay. Why are you stressed?
Oh, my God. I haven't seen you in forever.
Is there a little table for me right now?
- JOE: Yeah, there is. - Yes, perfect.
MICHOLS: Just figure it out. Why are you stressed?
- We'll figure it out. - Yeah, we'll figure it out.
We'll show them-- Where am I putting Mia?
MIA: Everybody, VIP this way.
Were you gonna take us outside or not outside?
I thought you guys didn't have a table.
JUSTIN: We'll get it situated.
You're not Beyoncé, bitch.
Typically when you reserve a table,
you're going to call ahead, email ahead.
Do not walk up here in VIP

We're sold out.
Go back to GA.
I think she's forgetting who she's talking to.
I used to be at the front door. I used to be selling tables.
Hey, boss lady. Boss lady's up here.
Wait, everybody get to work.
This job is not rocket science.
Maybe she forgot 'cause she only worked for five seconds.
JOE: Just walk 'em into the bar.
- All right, ladies, let's go. - Whoo! Thank you!
This is my fave. The ones with the lights.
You guys are in the back right here.
What's up, pookie? You look like you have a thought.
It is very obvious when Michols has a problem with anyone.
And... I don't know why.
After Emo Night, I was getting a lot
of spam text messages from Emmy freaking out.
Oh, God.
Here we go.
"I'm being gaslit into feeling like I wasn't allowed
"to feel unsafe. I had every right to feel the way I did."
Then she sent me, like, some ChatGPT screenshots, and--
Oh, my God, I can't even read this sh--. It's too much, man.
It's just gross.
Emmy's not thinking about how the things that she's saying
are damaging to Brad's reputation.
It's just selfish at this point.

This is now my second wig in a week.
Not even a week. Three days.

Two wigs in three days and another coat of eyeliner.
Joe's just looking for excuses to wear more and more eyeliner.
Maddi?
- Happy birthday. - Ah!
- Thank you. - [Olive whines]
I hear-- I hear Olive.
Yeah, she's right here.
She's a Leo. It's her birthday too. Here.
Honestly, I felt like it was already the worst day of my life
waking up at nine o'clock in the morning.
I was like, oh, my God,
especially after your birthday weekend.
I'm birthdayed out.
Yeah.
Like, the only thing that I wanna do for my birthday
is just, like, relax, and, honestly, be in bed.
Damn it!
I have a boat full of people on a yacht
dressed as pirates sipping tequila.
JUSTIN: Oh, yes! Get 'em going right now. Start 'em off.
I ----ed up.
Well, it's a beautiful day. Let's-- let's go out.
Even though you're a little tired now, like,
I think we should have, like, a nice, romantic day.
- You and me. - Oh.
My ideal birthday is bedrotting, Uber Eats, and a good TV show.
When's the last time we went on, like, a date?
Okay, I'm getting up.
What should I bring? I have no idea what we're doing.
I was thinking we could just go, like, kayaking.
If we wanna jump in, we can, you know?
It's your birthday. Let me pamper you.
I'll bring everything.
I'm excited to have a romantic day with you.
- Thank you. - Happy birthday.
LAKE: She's gonna be triggered when she sees those.
Don't let go of those balloons!
Ooh!
BRAD: Beep, beep, beep. Wide load. All the lights are on.
MICHOLS: Oh, yeah.
- Hello. - You look so good.
- Thank you. - Hi, I'm Ally.
- I don't know-- - Yes, we have. How are you?
- Oh, I'm sorry. - No worries.
- How are you? - Ally-- Hey.
Molly and Mia are just, like, the popular mean girls that,
like, think that they run sh--, but actually know nothing.
My chakras are telling me, "Stay the [bleep] away."
I have never seen a girl be so...
mad for no ----ing reason.
Can I get, like, a vodka berry syrup thing?
I'll have a Hugo Spritz, too.
- Maddi is gonna love this. - Yeah, she is.
Maddi doesn't even ----ing drink,
and this is a booze cruise. A booze cruise!
Isn't your girlfriend sober 11 years? [inhales sharply]
I mean, I'm not complaining.
Maddi doesn't wanna be around a bunch of people
that are inebriated on a ----ing boat.
Like, she wants some flowers,
a little nice, like, back rub,
maybe get her coochie ate.
I would ----ing kill Will if he did this to me.
So what does Maddi think is happening?
I think it's, like, maybe Joe taking her on a boat.
I feel like all summer,
we haven't done anything romantic together.
Park right here.
You can see 'em right there.
Everybody hit the poop deck!
- [all shushing] - BRAD: Shut the [bleep] up.
I'm not seeing any kayaks, Joe.
Captain John, tell us when we can get up.
I can't scoot anymore, my butt is big.
- Be quiet. - JOE: Like, I put them--
like, I rigged them up here, like, this morning.
You see that really big, like, inconspicuous-looking boat that
looks like there's balloons? Yeah, it's not us. It's not us.
- It's not your birthday boat. - Nope.
You'll see, they're on the other side of the dock.
Where?
Oh, sh--.
Happy birthday!
[cheering]
We got balloons!
MADDI:
Well, I planned it a long time ago.
I do not like surprises,
and if there is a surprise, I like to be warned.
- She's disco pirate! - Told you she'd cry.
That's so Maddi. Whoo!
MICHOLS: Come on, get your booty up here!
I-- I think I might be walking the plank on this one.
Happy birthday!
[cheering]
MADDI:
Well, I planned it a long time ago.
No, like, after your weekend,
I really just wanted to ----ing chill.
Get your booty up here!
I thought I was going kayaking.

I don't wanna say Joe epic failed because, like,
I'm sure he put in a lot of work for this.
But, I mean... Joe totally failed.
You guys look so good!
Come aboard! Aye-aye!

Happy birthday!

I wish I had a pirate outfit!
Did you get me a pirate outfit?
Oh, my gosh. Please tell me there's a pirate outfit for me.
Yeah, but it's in my truck. I thought we were gonna--
- You left it? - MICHOLS: Joe.
I'm like, Joe, you had two jobs:
getting her to the dock and remembering her costume.
I'm not gonna lie to you, like,
I kind of understand how Grace Lilly feels now.
You're a bad friend to me.
Way to tell me that I needed to wear pajamas.
Because I'm the only person here
that's not in costume to a costume party.
So you don't have one?
No.
Where would I-- where would I ----ing put it?
It's all right.
Oh, God.
I would put this on the power rankings
of how Joe ----ed up right below the balloon.
- MADDI: Oh, no, no, no. - JOE: Oh, no. Sorry, sorry.
MADDI: No, no, no. Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe, Joe!
JOE: Oh, no!
And I'm about to jump overboard.

I think I'm gonna propose.
All right, we'll talk to you in about a month.

JUSTIN: She said, "I really like you,
"but let's see how DR goes."

BRAD: That's how today's going.
JOE: Hopefully she likes the gesture.
You went above and beyond. Okay?
Oh, no. They'll blame this on me, too.

Yeah. But we're going on a trip. We're gonna have fun next week.
- Punta Cana? Yes! - Yeah.
He's actually doing, like, planning the stuff we're doing
- and the culture stuff. - Yeah.
Like, I'm doing the party part.
Yeah. My family's from there.
Growing up, when I would go there over the summer,
the house that my grandma owns,
we have a bunch of mango trees in the back.
[gasps] Mango trees? Sorry, I love mango.
Yeah. And our next-door neighbors,
their daughter and their son used to come in our backyard
and, like, steal the mangoes at night, and my sister was, like,
obsessed with the mangoes, and she would go and, like,
fight the girl off because she would
- come in the backyard-- - I would do the same sh--.
I'd be like, "Give me back my ----ing mango!"
MIA: I think the captain put the anchor down.
- Should we go play Mermaid? - Let's go play Mermaid.

MIA: Oh, my God!
JUSTIN: Yeah!
Are you coming or are you staying?
We're gonna come eventually.
Love y'all.
EMMY: Michols is clearly upset with me about something.
- Like, he's pushed me away. - No, I honestly peeped that.
I am experiencing firsthand what Michols did to Lake.
He has a bad habit of going quiet,
giving people the silent treatment.
That was insane.
I am on a boat dressed as a pirate.
Do we really have to ignore me today?
Did you even know everything that went down
on, like, Joe's birthday?
No but I did see Mia and Lake, like...
I wasn't a part of that conversation.
What happened with you and Julia?
She pulled me out into the alley
and just, like, started going at me.
I was like, "You need to back the [bleep] up."
You are a white-privileged-ass bitch!
Julia, what the [bleep] does that mean?
It means-- Because you don't understand!
But the fact that you didn't react is really good.
I did-- I called her a ----ing [bleep] when she walked away.
Have you tried to text him, or, like--
Yeah, I texted him. I expressed to him everything,
and he was, like, not very receptive.
The thing is, I feel like it hits home
for him, like, personally.
I don't know how Emmy expects Michols to defend her
when he is someone of color
who's also personally affected by this.
Loyalty is important,
but I think blind loyalty is bullsh--.
We're not Mia, TJ, and Brad here with blind loyalty.
It's like...
Wait, two plus two equals four.
That's my point. [laughs]
That's my point.
MOLLY: Why isn't Mia a real pirate?
TJ: 'Cause she ain't got no booty.

Well, I know this might not be
the birthday party of your dreams,

- Just taking it day by day. - You look good.
You know how life is. Life is always lifeing.
- ----ing lifeing. [laughs] - Yeah.
I got something really big off my chest.
- Oh, yeah? - Where...
Last year, and a little bit of the year before that,
- I wasn't doing well. - Yes. I noticed.
I didn't know what it was, but I could tell.
- For sure. - And I obviously didn't wanna
make any, like, assumptions.
But talk to me. Sorry, I didn't mean to...
Yeah. Um, it's still kind of hard to talk about,
to be honest, but I feel lighter being more honest about my past.
- Yeah. - And, you know, I was overusing
and over-partying.
When Grace first started working for us, she was full of sparkle,
full of life, and in recent years,
she had grown increasingly unreliable.
She was canceling shifts.
And the last straw was really when she came in and
she got into a verbal argument with one of the servers.
Over a boy, of course.
So unfortunately, we had to part ways with Grace.
All I was able to put together was that
there could be something going on that wasn't healthy.
I am sober and doing better.
Like, I'm not in my bed sleeping all day.
I'm not sad, I'm not depressed, and I--
- Are you seeing someone? - I am.
I'm in therapy again.
- Good. - So that's good.
- Yay! Thank you! - That looks so good!
- Looks so good. - You're really the first one
to really know that I admitted to it.
- You know, I miss you. - Thank you for telling me.
You're like my big sister and like my second mom.
- I admire you so much, Leva. - I appreciate that, Grace.
I love Republic.
I'm not gonna lie, I miss getting dressed up
and looking cute and walking in there and selling those tables.
- Yeah. - So if I were to come back
to Republic, I'm really hoping that
we can all be cool again, and...
Do you think that the club world
is, like, a healthy space for you to be in?
Um, it really is.
It just wasn't at one point. You know?
And I feel like I can manage it better,
and I would prove that to you.
However you feel is what we'll go with.
I know, I'm sure.
I'm sure. But I still think that Grace that's--
You're, like, in a healing space.
I think that this world can be really triggering.
You know what I mean? Like...
I will say I told everyone that the card reading thing
is something that Grace has to, like, really go after.
- Yeah. - Maybe a safer space like
a day club or maybe coming in here and they can have events.
- Yeah. - Less about the VIP experience
and more about the Grace experience.
Yeah. Aww.
I think when you've been around someone for, like, a decade
and you've watched them grow up, you're going to innately have
soft spots for them and root for them.
The first time we put Grace Lilly on a Zoom
to a management meeting, she showed up in a string bikini.
And everyone's sitting there, like, in suit jackets.
And I was, like, side texting Grace.
I was like, "Grace, put a shirt on."
[laughs] Like...
I miss you guys dearly.
- Yeah. - I miss the group.
You know, that's one thing I do get down and out about.
Because I just now realized that you weren't at Joe's birthday.
No, I wasn't at Maddi's birthday.
I haven't really been a part of anything to be honest with you.
They're all going on a trip for a couple days.
I wasn't invited, no.
That's crazy because Joe and Maddi were like your people.

Um, there was a joke that I said
that was taken out of joking terms.
What was the joke?
Um...
Maddi Reese, have you ----ed Joe in the ass?
Oh, my God!
I don't really want to repeat it again honestly.
You know, because I don't want to hurt their feelings.
Okay.
You know, and I didn't mean to.
It was just something that came out like word vomit.
Was it a joke that hurt Maddi's feelings?
Maddi and Joe, yeah.
Have you tried to be like, "Hey Maddi, can we talk?"
I had texts.
I had texts that I reached out,
even the night after everything happened.
[Leva] Have they text you back?
No, unfortunately not.
I don't want to bother her.
I can't force it.
Maybe you write them an old school letter
- or deliver some flowers. - Yeah, yeah.
I just feel like, you know, I value our friendship.
We've been friends for so long.
It's been over a month since I've touched ketamine.
I mean of course there's maybe some times where I get
like a little triggered and you know,
I want to resort back into old ways
but being on a routine, going to therapy, journaling, meditating,

But you know, I do feel isolated and left out.

My entire mom's side of the family

I was born there, raised there

Being a mestizo and like a mix of different cultures

I love it.

Okay, we're going to number two.

So much room for activities!
Girl...
Visiting as a child compared to being at this resort

so my grandma would have her friends come pick us up
on motorcycles and we'd ride on the back of motorcycles.

Oh, my God, we got a little jacuzzi too!
We can be naked and make out.
I'm so excited. Joe, this hotel is so nice.
It's so refreshing to be out of the country together.

The only person I feel awkwardly around is Lake

- Yeah. - I'm good.
I have absolutely no idea why Lake doesn't like me.
I don't know if it's because of me and Jordyn.
If it's because of my resolved conflict with Jordyn.
Emphasis on resolved.

Wait. When?
TJ: Lake called Jordyn the other day and was like,
"People are finding out about Oisin
"and me and that girl having a threesome."
Girl?
Doesn't he have a girlfriend?
BRAD: He does have a girlfriend?
Hey listen, I don't know anything.
I didn't hear anything. I just heard.
And she's gonna come at me for it.
- BRAD: I just heard. - I thought everyone heard.
I mean, let me get this straight.
So Oisin has a girlfriend,
Lake went home with him,
but Lake is mad at me for going on a date
with a guy, Justin,
who like slept with Jordyn a couple times.
Not even boyfriend-girlfriend.
The absolute hypocrisy.
Hello?
Like am I in the Twilight Zone here?
Am I-- am I-- am I losing it?
That's crazy.
BRAD: She's holding all of you accountable
because all of you are bad friends.
All of you.
Guess who has the longest term friends
out of anybody running here?
Hey! Everybody, everybody, come here, come here!
- You're new here. - [laughing]
MADDI: Coming up.
You're never going to understand what it's like
to be my skin color.
So just drop it. Leave it alone.
Why when a man stalks my hotel room, he threatened me?
♪♪
Stunning.
I love that. That's mine.
Remember you said that would look good on me
and you bought it?
Okay, I'm going to borrow it when I get back to Charleston.
[door ringing]
Oh, there.
- Hey. - Hello. Hey, how are you?
- How's it going, man? - Hi.
Maddi is here? Oh, Maddi. Hey, how are you?
Yes, I'm Maddi, so nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too. My name is Juan.
- So, you ready for it? - Perfect. Yes, I'm ready.
I'm excited to be back doing what I love again.
It was crucial to my mental health
to take a break and I'm ready to get back on stage
and this is my first step to doing that.
- Right there? - Yeah.
Maddi, you're going to be floating in the water.
- That's amazing. - That's a first for her.
Are you guys going to put a table up and then
put the decks on top of it?
Oh, that's amazing.
No matter what show I'm doing, I always feel pressure,
but especially this one
because it's my first one out of the country
and I want more out of the country.
That's what I manifest every day.
Thank you so much.
- See you, man. - Oh, my God.
- You're gonna be right there. - In the pool? How cool is that?
Like, floating. You're gonna be floating and ----ing DJing.

The reservation's at 7 PM,
so we gotta go over there for 6:45.
I thought I had this all figured out, but...
Wait, what time is it in Charleston?
I didn't know if there was a time difference.
JUSTIN: You know, normally as a single guy on vacation
I'd be having a field day.
But my connection to Charley has been so strong.
I mean, like, it's been a week and a half.
It's 5:56.
You know 6:56,
that's the time of day that I think about you the most?
Yeah. That's when I feel the loneliest, at 5:56.
Really?
Yeah.
- Look how pretty. - So beautiful.
I mean, would you kill me if I borrowed those maybe?
- Go ahead. - Okay.
We're ready to go.
TJ: These open up? Oh, yeah.
Oh, we can hide in here.
Oh, we should.
Let's go hide in here.
Should we go in there right now?
Let me get in this one.
Yeah, you do that.
Is this how it feels to be trapped in the closet?
We're trying to eat.
- Hey! - Open up!
[door ringing]
Oh, my God, I gotta get the door.
Here. Here, everyone hide. Just ----ing hide.
Coming!
- Hey. - Hey.
Are you guys ready?
Let's go to dinner, bitches! I'm starving.
JOE: Hey, guys, we gotta go to dinner.
Let's go.
Where is everyone?
Check in there.
- [Joe shouting] - [Brad laughing]
How do you fit in there?
Oh, my God. I wasn't expecting it.
I'm like, there's no way.
You sick [bleep].
These are weirdos.
I'm glad I'm in the other villa, honestly.
Coming!
- Hey. - Hi.
I wanted to ask you if you want to go chat
before we go to dinner, because I don't want
to have a conversation across the dinner table.
Yeah, of course Do you want to just go, like, on my porch?
- Yeah. - Wait, your outfit's so cute.
Thank you.
I think my biggest thing is, like,
I don't want what happened with Lake
to happen with me and Emmy.
Stop ----ing lying!
- MIA: Chill, chill, chill. - MADDI: Lake..
I have no idea what's going on.
I think that just went 0 to 100 way too quick.
That's Michols, yeah. What the [bleep]?
I would rather just, like,
get a conversation out of the way
and be on the same page so that we can both enjoy this trip
instead of walking on eggshells.
Um...
Do you want me to go first, or would you want to go first?
Can you tell me what it is that I did that was wrong?
Um...
Hey.
One second.
No, I love you guys are talking.
We'll meet you guys at dinner.
I just want to let you know that we're heading there now.
- Okay. - Love you.
You know, I think I just have been having a hard time,
you know, feeling the support from you as of recent.
I was terrified going into the summer
without having Will by my side,
and Michols promised he'd be my person.
I'm not asking for much.
Just maybe defend me like a ----ing friend's supposed to.
There's never, ever, ever, ever, ever been a time
that I can remember that I've never once supported you.
Whether that being all the sh-- that you got last year
from the whole entire group.
Come here.
- I know. - What the [bleep]?
What the [bleep]?
Michols, I literally...
I know, I know, I know.
You getting engaged, I was the first person you called.
Yeah.
Just, like, being in New York
when your fiancé didn't show up on stage.
I held your hand, wiped your tears.
I guess this means...
- Yeah. - He's not about to speak.
You haven't.
[Emmy sobbing]
Girl.
Please, shut the [bleep] up.
- Emmy, breathe, breathe. - Shut up [indistinct]. Come on.
So, for me, it's very hurtful
for you to just disregard the whole entire friendship
the second that you felt like I didn't defend you for Brad.
♪♪
HOSTESS: Hi, how are you?
Oh, look at this. I wanna sit next to Brad.
It's a big table.
JOE: By the way, if anyone's wondering
Emmy and Michols are,
I know they've kind of, like, been having, like a...
- MADDI: Tension. - Yeah,
a little struggle recently,
but I think they'll be here soon.
Night one. Let's have a good time.
I can smell someone's Axe body spray from over here.
Who is it?
JUSTIN: Why do you look at me?
MICHOLS: No matter what, at the end of the day,
our friendship should not be reliant on me
telling you whether you're right or wrong
in a situation because I truly believe
that as a good friend to you,
I would tell you if you were wrong in a situation,
and I would hope that you would do the same for me.
I took what you said about how this was Brad's
and his own personal issue seriously.
I just, I felt invalidated in my right that he made me--
MICHOLS: Whether-- Okay, listen.
Whether you felt invalidated or not,
you're never gonna understand what it's like
to be my skin color.
No, I won't.
And to be like Mia, Lake, Brad, or I.
I won't ever.
So when situations like this happen and I say,
"Drop it, leave it alone," that's what I mean.
But here's the thing.
I talked to Lucia at length about this
because I wanted her to tell me if I had done something wrong.
And she said his actions were unacceptable.
You actively chose to text me, not my fiancé.
- And Will. - And you chose to go
after me and scare me and be like, "Sleep with one eye open."
What the hell does this man have in store for me?
Because he's a vengeful man.
What a violation of privacy.
I think Emmy used Lucia to validate her own feelings
and I can guarantee you
that Emmy probably only told her her side of the story.
There is no microaggression
and I have a hard time moving on
when a man stalks my hotel room.
He threatened me.
He sent me those two impulsive texts.
I'm confused.
I don't really understand what Brad's situation
has to do with our friendship.
Because I would ----ing ride or die for you
and I feel like you didn't.
Like, I don't think you understand.
I had a ----ing panic attack in my hotel room
when Brad texted me.
Will was supposed to have a 9.30 p.m. flight and he changed.
You feel unsafe and your fiancé's in the room?
Girl, I would not marry a mother----er
that made me feel unsafe
if somebody's banging on my door outside my room.
Am I wrong?
Whether you agree with it or not, there's a double standard.
I just want us to align on our opinions
and I guess when they don't, it's hard for me.
Honestly, I think that for tonight,
I feel like we should just table the conversation
because, like I said, I haven't been here
in a really long time and I wanted it to be an opportunity
for me to connect with my family and like...
We should probably go to dinner and meet up with everyone.
Yeah, let's go.
----ing ankles are sweaty.
MADDI: Guys, I went and saw the venue today
that I'm playing at
and I'm like, we've got to get the party started
because I'm playing in the middle of the pool.
- Really? - Yes.
I don't know how the DJ equipment's
not going to like get wet.
Are you gonna have a set specific for here?
- I did. - Let's go!
She's been working on it like a week and a half.
Maddi, you got this.
She's the headliner.
The opening, the closing, the main event.
- Thank you so much. - Gracias.
What's your worst first date?
I got hit by a car on a date once.
- Whoa. - Okay, Regina George.
Aye caramba!
Vamanos.
Hi.
- I love that shirt, Michols. - MICHOLS: Thank you.
Are you girls on one time?
I love your purse.
Thank you.
Hi. Good, how are you?
I'm happy that he heard me out.
Now I can go to the dinner as a dinner
and keep this a private matter between Michols and I.
Wait, I have one.
MADDI: My date was on Valentine's Day.
He was arrested. He was arrested.
Yeah, first date on Valentine's Day is crazy.
Do you have a crazy date story?
Do you guys want some of the burrata?
It's the quietest I've ever seen you.
What's the issue? What's wrong?
MIA: No, you're not fine, obviously.
The one time I tried to get through to Emmy,
she doesn't hear me.
This trip is very important to me
because I wanted you to see where my family is from
and to learn more about my background.
But instead, you only care about yourself right now.
So, where did everyone get their outfits from?
My outfits are from Cult Gaia.
Really? Oh, you expensive woman.
MIA: Thank you.
JUSTIN: Michols is not happy.
Sometimes when he's upset, he has a hard time opening up.
I just feel like I want to go have a conversation
and then I let her walk all over me the whole time.
It's like, why don't you listen?
MADDI: She's never been good at listening.
We know that.
Oh, yeah, that's it.
Is that Lioness? Not Lioness.
It's um, Runaway The Label?
Good, it's on Pre-Order.
I've wanted to get it. I love it.
MICHOLS: I'm really excited about this trip
because I wanted to be selfish
and, like, connect with my family.
But it's like, you can't help things about yourself 24-7.
Oh, we have food.
Joe, we have more food. Oh.
[Michols sobbing]
