Oh my gosh.

Viviane.

Call 911.

- Oh my god.

I'm gonna need some oxygen. Okay.

- Oh my god.

Oh my god,

Viv?

Alright, stay with me, Viv.

Stay with me...

Come on.

Stay with me.

You're going to be okay, baby.

Stay with me.

EMERGENCY ENTRANCE

Shawn.

Where is she?

- Thank God you got a flight out so fast.

Listen. Her doctor said

she had a mild heart attack,

but she's going to be okay.

Your friend is fine.

She's resting now.

We'll release her tomorrow.

Thank you.

- Thank you.

Okay, listen.

You guys can go.

I will stay and I'll call if anything changes.

No, no, no.

We don't mind...

It's okay. It's okay.

I'll...

I'll take care of her.

Okay.

I'll call you. I promise.

- Thank you. Okay.

Hey.

What is that?

Gift shop.

And I know you need one,

'cos latchkey kids never have key chains.

Nate.

- What's wrong?

Amaya and I were you fighting,

and then Viviane was on the floor.

And...

What are you doing here?

Rock 'N' Roll Hall of Fame.

Making them our music division number 1.

And I looked up and what do I see?

But you fighting in the lobby.

And...

what happened to your friend?

Is she gonna be okay?

- Yeah, now she's fine.

Wait, aren't you missing the ceremony?

Yeah, but it couldn't possibly

be as exciting as the rumble in the lobby.

I ruined everything.

Amaya, my job, the Vow.

Well. I don't know what to

tell you about all that.

But I was calling the other day because...

You called?

- Yeah.

Oh, right.

I was ignoring you.

Anyway,

I had an idea.

I have a few clients that are always

complaining to me about...

...the fact that their management is so big,

that they can't properly service them.

And I recalled that being your complaint

over at the agency as well.

So.

I figured why not.

Go in the business as a manager.

Be your own boss.

Because I can't afford it.

I need a job now.

Come on. Don't worry about that.

I can float you the money.

Like I said.

These people are already working.

So, you'll be able to pay me back.

Like that.

Why would you do that?

I like a girl with a little bite and a bark.

Get some rest, Sugar Ray.

You had a big day.

I'll talk to you tomorrow.

Nate.

- Yeah.

Can you stay?

On the couch?

Just until I fall asleep?

I have nightmares.

Yeah,

of course.

Thanks for not mentioning that

I looked like a homeless person.

I think you look beautiful.

But that's just me.

I will be right here.

Good night.

- Good night.

96 DAYS REMAINING

So uh.

My mom says Cory is still asleep.

So. I'll just bring him back

when he wakes up.

Thank you.

For everything.

Oh, come on now.

You knew there's nothing

I wouldn't do for you.

I never stopped loving you.

And there's all this friction between us

because I can't get over it.

And I don't want to do this anymore.

I think that it would be good for

Cory and I to move to New York.

Wait, wait, wait.

Viviane...

You're a good dad.

And I don't want to take him away from you,

but...

Cory is confused.

I just think it would be best...

...for all of us.

Viviane.

Viviane...

The thing is.

I really want to be an actress.

And, at my age,

trying for something with Keith...

...was easier than going for

what I really wanted,

than hearing,

'You're too old.'

I guessed, the vow game

give me something real to try for.

So If what I wanted didn't happen,

then something else might.

I didn't know it would make me nuts.

We were like Gollum in Lord of the Rings.

What is that?

- Lord of the Rings?

Is that the movie with

the kids in a magic school?

There is this ring.

The Precious.

And everybody wants it,

because they think it

gives you all these powers.

But there are these monsters

you have to deal with.

Like the creepy guys we dated.

And the friends turned on each other,

and then the ring makes everyone crazy.

That movie sounds great.

I thought it was about wizards.

My point is that I'm sorry,

Amaya.

The Precious made me do it.

I'm sorry too.

Now.

What is all this?

Oh.

I'm starting a new business.

So,

I'm expanding my home office.

What is the business?

- I'm going into talent management.

Oh.

That's great.

I want you to be my first client.

Me?

You have the goods, Amaya.

You always have.

You just need to hone your technique.

And stop waiting for someone

else to get you there.

But in the mean time,

to make it official.

Okay.

Amaya Adams.

- Yes.

Do you wanna be my very first client?

I do.

Then I now pronounce us.

Manager and client.

- Yeah.

The vow brought everything to who I am.

I'm back in acting class.

Kitty and Keith split up.

You finally started your book

and that one started her own business.

You looked so familiar to me.

You come here before?

- No, no.

But I'm sure I've seen you somewhere.

The Vow did made me make a big decision.

Cory and I...

- Wait.

Terrance Robb.

You're the one who passed out...

That's me.

And you're the one

who was sprinkling baby oil.

I'm Mikiko.

- Mikiko.

Yes, Mikiko.

- This is Mikiko.

Girl, I wouldn't have just left you there,

but he threw us all out.

No.

He got me fired.

Bastard.

- I know.

I like that.

Can you...?

You want this? You want this?

- Yes. Yes.

Let's do this.

Come come.

Oh my god. Viv, I'm sorry.

What were you saying?

Oh nothing,

I'm... I'll tell you later.

Okay.

Thank you.

TM:

Management

Trista Miller - Owner

Yeah. Get me Trista Miller

on the phone, please.

Yes, this is fantastic.

Dude is probably take that...

Oh, no, no, no...

- Thank you.

Please... it is the least I can do

after everything you done.

Well, listen.

Let me do one more thing for you.

I think that will worth your while.

- Okay.

The movie you got Terrance....

It's going.

And. For the love interest is...

still wide open.

They're looking for an urban

unknown Marilyn Monroe type.

Kinds of sounds like...

- Amaya.

How do you know?

They haven't released anything.

Oh, because I'm a man.

You really want to leave right now,

don't you?

I don't.

But, yes.

Go ahead.

Go tell her.

And if I hear anything more on my end,

I'll let you know.

I got to go.

- Alright.

Okay.

I'll see you soon.

Breathe.

I was racing over here.

And in the car,

I'm thinking.

How am I going to get her this audition.

And won't Terrance try to block it...

...once he realizes that

she's my client and all.

You know how Amaya always says:

'Use what you have to get what you want'

Well,

what I have right now is you

Okay. What...

What do you need?

Okay.

I need a blind item.

Okay.

- And then...

Okay.

So... um...

Wait.

What is this?

I talked to Shawn,

and we think that it is...

...more stable for Cory...

...if his mom isn't all,

you know...

We'll work it out.

Yeah.

Tell me about this blind item.

Yeah.

So.

I just need you to say.

'Hi, Terrance',

when I cue you.

This is Terrance.

Just leave a message.

So, I'm sitting with Viviane Rhimes,

the voice of Hollywood.

Say, 'Hi, Terrance.'

- Hi, Terrance.

And she was asking me questions
