I'll hold them off

for a week.

See what you can do

to make it work.

Okay?

Okay, I need

two new outfits

for my new

headshots.

You tell me which

ones you like best,

and I'll let you borrow

whatever you want

for your next

date with Saul.

Better start on my two week

juice fast so they'll fit.

Hold up the

blue one again.

That's it, yeah.

James, asking you

for this money

is really

embarrassing for me.

The $7000 will be

transferred to your account

first thing

in the morning.

I only need half to secure

my place in the program.

The final payment isn't due

until after Thanksgiving.

You'll rest easier

not worrying where

the rest of the money

is gonna come from.

I'll pay you back

as soon as I can.

Stop it, you're not

paying me back.

I'm not looking

for a handout.

I've been working

since I was 15,

helping my dad,

waitressing, babysitting...

I'm sorry, I

really don't mean

to come off as

ungrateful. It's just-

I get it. You pride yourself

on your independence.

That's what I

like about you.

Listen to me, I've

been there before.

I know how hard it is to

do everything on your own.

This program in Florence

is a great opportunity

and you shouldn't

miss out.

The last thing you need is more

debt hanging over your head.

And I wouldn't be doing this

if I couldn't afford it.

So no more talking

about paying me back.

Can you do that for me?

I want it out of your mind.

It's out of my mind.

Okay.

Let's have a

little fun, shall we?

Come on.

[Garage door closing]

Oh my gosh.

This is amazing!

One of the perks of being

an investor in the company.

You get keys to the showroom to

take people on private tours.

The detail and...

Ahhh!

Where is this

piece from?

I picked it up at an

auction in Holland.

It's a coastal contemporary

piece by Adelaide Wilder.

It's exquisite.

A client wanted

that couch.

But I decided I wanted

to keep it for myself.

Did you already pay

for it? It's yours?

Yes, why? What

are you thinking?

I think we

better christen it.

Is that right?

[Flute jazz music]

[Flute jazz music]

This is a depiction of the lady

attempting to seduce the man,

who's resisting

her advances.

-So she's a prostitute?

-No, she's not

a prostitute,

she's a courtesan.

Although I admit these

days the distinction

is a little harder

to understand.

[Phone ringing]

Owen, hey.

Hey, baby bro!

Hey just to let you to know,

I'm gonna be in town tomorrow.

Thought I'd take

you out to dinner.

Right on, where

you wanna go?

Heard of this place

that's supposed

to have a lot

of hot chicks.

Where's that?

I don't know exactly.

It's called Sky House.

I can meet

there around 7.

It's classy

dress code Sean,

you got a jacket?

Yeah yeah, I think so.

Where is this place?

I'll text you the address

when I find it. Later bro.

[Hangs up]

Hey Sean.

Hey.

What's up with you?

I found out yesterday

I got an internship

over the winter break.

Wow that's cool.

Doing what?

Just a study-work thing

for pre-med students.

Basically assist a

medical outreach team.

Anyway, I'll be going around

villages giving out vaccines.

Wait, Sean...

villages?

Where are you

doing this?

Congo, Africa.

Congo. Wow,

that's amazing!

Yeah, tell that

to my parents.

They're pretty

freaked.

Well, I can

kinda see why.

It's really far away,

and I don't know,

maybe kind of

dangerous?

Honestly, my parents would

find a reason to worry

about me in

the next town.

But that's what

parents do.

Yeah, sounds familiar.

Hey, what about you?

With the great art

history program...

I hear Hickman's

a real hard-ass though.

Yeah, she's my favorite.

Yeah, I bet.

What's that

supposed to mean?

I've worked in that

bookstore for two years,

you're the first

person that's come in

and bought every single

supplemental text there is.

[Laughing]

I don't believe you.

Oh hey, here's

my study partner.

Oh, cool.

I have to go

soon anyway.

Great talking.

Yeah. You too.

Hi, Sean!

Hey.

You okay to study?

Me? Yeah, why?

I don't know.

Maybe you're

a little distracted?

Yep, distracted.

I've got some client

money to play with.

Here's the brochure.

All mid-century modern.

That's my favorite.

Have you ever

placed a bid before?

Sure. For $15

lamps on eBay.

It's basically

the same thing.

Apart from the three

extra zeroes.

I've got something

here for you.

What's this?

Open it.

James...

And this, as well.

Didn't want to get lost

at the bottom of the box.

It's for shoes.

I couldn't remember if

you were a six or seven.

And a bag. I know how

ladies love to accessorize.

James...

(Stammering)

This, this is all too much.

I can't take

all of this.

The dress alone is worth

a fortune, please.

You've helped me

so much already.

Well, if it will make

you feel any better,

you'll be the one helping

me out this time.

I need a date for the

museum this Saturday.

There's a gala opening.

For the opening of the

Picasso exhibit?

You keep surprising me with

all these nice things!

You're so appreciative.

I like that.

You don't take it for

granted like other girls.

So you do this with

other girls too?

Sorry. I just don't get how

this whole thing is...

supposed to work.

Katie, I like

giving you things.

It makes me feel happy.

But if it makes you

uncomfortable, I'll stop.

No one has ever given me

something so beautiful before.

I don't know what to say.

Say thank you and

that you'll go.

Ladies! Katie, this

is Rochelle.

And you know Sasha.

Hi, nice to meet

you Rochelle.

Hey Sasha.

Hey.

Champagne?

Always.

Heard you're a brilliant

interior designer, Katie.

Oh, that's just Tessa

doing my PR.

She's good at that.

Well, my friends are fabulous,

powerful women who will be

the top of their industries

in five years tops.

Anybody asks,

I said it first.

Rochelle is the

business major here,

she's working on

getting her MBA.

Then she'll be a CEO of

a Fortune 500 company.

Make that Fortune 50.

We're out.

Oh, I'll get it.

Another bottle of

Veuve LaPlante please.

Dipping into your Italy

internship fund?

Don't worry, you can always

ask for more sweetie.

And Sasha, how do you

describe Sasha?

A label whore?

Don't you love

my new shoes?

Another pair?

How many times

have we been over this?

You have to stop

spending all your money.

Why? Her tuition

is covered.

What does she

gotta worry about?

I didn't buy them, okay?

You remember Ken?

-No.

He took me shopping.

Said I just had

to have them.

Ease up Sasha, you're

freaking Katie out.

To Katie!

(Everyone)

To Katie!

[Glasses clinking]

So Katie... what kind

of guy is your type?

James.

James is my type.

Who's James?

Leo's business associate

from London.

Speak of the devil.

-Hi Katie.

Katie, you hit

the jackpot.

I texted you

from the lobby.

Sorry to interrupt,

ladies.

I don't know how

I missed it, sorry.

No worries.

James, you

know Tessa.

This is Rochelle

and Sasha.

James, hello.
