"Carmen?" "Oh, mon dieu, you look magnifique." "Thanks." "I'm going on a talk show to promote my new album, and I can't decide what to wear." "Wear this." "Mon coeur, what happened to our plan?" "You were supposed to seduce Jacklyn." "I know." "I couldn't go through with it." "She's been nothing but nice to me." "Is that why you haven't returned any of my calls?" "No, I lost my stupid phone." "Oh, I thought you were mad at me." "Where was the last place you had it?" " If I knew, it wouldn't be lost." " Oh, let's see." "The last text you sent was... when you were with Jacklyn." "Oh, my God." "I left my phone at your house!" "It's okay." "I'll go home and find it." "What if she already did?" " Thank you, Thomas." " Is everything okay?" "Remember when I said" "I thought my husband was having an affair?" "Well, I finally know who he's been screwing." "And the bitch is gonna pay." "Oh, there you are." "Mr. Michael came to take Katy for the weekend and she couldn't find her dolly." "It's in my car." "Uh, I'll get it to her." " She was very upset." " Oh." "I tried calling you, but you didn't answer." "Sorry, I was, uh, at the gym." "And I had my..." "phone turned off." "You've been going to the gym a lot lately." "Every afternoon." "Yes, since the separation, the... exercise has helped clear my head." "I have a really great... trainer." "That's good." "Anyway, uh, I'm gonna take a shower." "Oh, wait." "I'm doing laundry." "You want me to throw in your gym clothes?" "Where is your bag?" "I must've left it at the gym!" "It's okay." "I'll call the gym for you." "Which one is it?" "You know what?" "I don't wanna trouble you." "I'll call them myself." "Uh, sorry to interrupt." "Carmen Luna to see you... without an appointment." "You know, it's not a good time, Carmen." "I just wanted to ask you if I left my phone at your house." "You did." "Yeah, I found it between the sofa cushions." "Thank God!" "I've been looking for this everywhere." "Did your husband call me?" "I'm sure he's been trying to reach me." "Excuse me?" "Why would Sebastien be trying to reach you?" "Oh, he's my realtor." "He didn't tell you?" "So..." "Let me get this straight." "Out of all the realtors in town, you chose my husband?" "Mm-hmm." "I wanna buy a condo." "And you told me that he was in real estate." "So I thought you'd be happy." "Was that wrong?" "I am... so relieved." "I mean, you... wow." "You wouldn't believe what's been going on in my mind." "I...you're so..." "Such a beautiful woman and..." "Sebastien is..." "Wait, you... you thought I would... with your husband?" "No, no, I know." "I know, it's so stupid!" "I mean, I was gonna murder you." "I'm glad you didn't." "Oh, I'm so sorry." "I assumed the worst." "Can you forgive me?" "Oh, don't be ridiculous." "Of course I forgive you." "Oh!" "Thank you." "Ah!" "Well..." "Now that that's out of my system, let's grab some coffee so we can chat about your big TV debut." "Hi." "I didn't know what the traditional gift was for accusing of your boyfriend of murder, so I went with a plant." "Don't kill it." "Seriously?" "Oh, come on." "We're gonna laugh about this someday." "Not today." "Jesse..." "I can't tell you how sorry I am." "I..." "I just think I'm so used to picking bad guys that I didn't trust when I finally had a good one." " Look, I don't wanna be mad." " Then don't be." "But that doesn't mean I can just pick up where we left off." "You need time." "I get it, but... please, I just..." "I don't wanna lose you from my life." "Can I ask you a favor?" "Yes, anything." "I still really need a job, and I have this one lead." "I was hoping you would give me a reference." "Of course!" "I'll give you a killer recommendation." "Not that you're a killer." "I think I'm gonna go now." "Yes, Genevieve, I'm taking great care of Dr. Neff." "Trust me, I will win him over before you come home." "Kiss the kids for me." "Mrs. Delatour having fun in New York with Remi and..." "Valentina." "Does Dr. Neff like mayo or mustard on his sandwich?" "Dijon mustard." "He and I got off to a rocky start." "I am trying to impress him." "Got any tips for me?" "Well..." "you could smile more." "Smile more?" "I guess I could do that." "You know, Dr. Neff is so happy with Mrs. Delatour." "I don't think I've seen him love him anyone this much since..." "Lurlene passed." "Lurlene?" "Which wife was she?" "Lurlene was his mother." "He loved her more than anyone in the world." "That... sounds healthy." "Dr. Neff, I made you lunch." "Genevieve says turkey is your favorite." "Well, that's very considerate." "Actually, turkey is my favorite." "Oh, well, then you'll really like what I'm making for dinner." "That looks positively succulent." "Wonderful effort, Zoila, but I don't want to spoil my appetite." "Dios mio, señor." "I just mopped this floor last week." "What?" "You only mop in here once a week?" "The point is, that little boy of yours" " makes a very big mess." " He's not my little boy." "He's just the crazy pet project of my bored, deluded wi..." "Well, hello there, dear." "Adrian, I have some appointments tomorrow." "I will be gone all day." "I need you to watch Deion." "Oh, I'm sure Carmen can babysit." "This isn't about Carmen." "This is about you bonding with our child." "As lovely as that sounds, I'm extremely busy tomorrow." "With what?" "Golf?" "And also a nap." "Just take Deion along to the club." "He'll love the fresh air." "Need I remind you, I didn't want the b-o-y in the first place." "I can spell, you know." "This is not a negotiation." "You're going to spend the day with our little boy, and that's that." "What's so funny?" "You're her bitch." "Mr. Michael thinks Mrs. Taylor's having an affair?" "Mm-hmm." "I bet the affair's with her trainer." " What?" " Every day, Mrs. Taylor says she's going to the gym, but I don't think she's exercising." "That's ridiculous." "Taylor is not sleeping with her trainer." "Well, she's having an affair with somebody." "How would you even know that?" "Because she's the maid." "If a spouse is cheating, we're always the first to know." "Not always." "When Genevieve's fourth husband was cheating on her, I knew." "And when she was cheating on him, I knew that, too." " They were both cheating?" " Nobody ever slept at home." "I never had to make the bed." "That was a great marriage." "If Mr. Michael said the affair's been going on for months, then maybe Blanca knew about it, too." "Wait." "At Zoila's wedding, Blanca told me there was something going on at that house." "And you're just telling us now?" "What?" "I was mad." "She took my dress!" "And let's not forget, it's still out there somewhere." "Yes, Blanca's dead, but that's the big mystery." "#Where'sCarmen'sdress?" "Maybe Mrs. Taylor was asking Blanca to keep her affair a secret." "But Blanca had a big mouth, so Taylor took her out." "No, Taylor didn't do it." "Whoever killed Louie killed Blanca." "And to chop up a body, the killer would have to be strong." " Someone in really good shape." " Like a trainer?" "I'm just saying." "If Mrs. Taylor is not the killer, then maybe her lover is." "Hello." "Oh, is Lorraine in?" "I have an appointment." "Oh, you must be Mrs. Powell." "I'm Natalie, your new case worker." "Oh." "What happened to Lorraine?" "Lorraine's job is to place children." "My job is to determine if that placement is working." "Well, it is lovely to meet you." "May I add, I simply adore that blazer." "Is it polyester?" "Lorraine may have fallen for that kind of sweet talk, but not me." "I need to conduct a home visit and confirm" "Deion's living conditions are satisfactory." "Oh, his living conditions are more than satisfactory." "I don't like to use the word "mansion,"" "but it's a mansion." "Well, the size of your home is irrelevant." "You might feel differently if you saw it by helicopter." "Now I see there hasn't been an interview with Mr. Powell yet." "I believe Lorraine handled that." "So you can just check that little box." "I don't cut corners, not when the welfare of a child is at stake." "I'll be there tomorrow at 3:00." "Make sure your husband is present." "Of course." "He'll be so excited." "This is boring." "Well, we should be playing golf." "But somebody took so long finding his shoes this morning that I missed my tee time." "I want chocolate milk." "It's a country club." "They don't have that." "Mom would get it for me." "Her name is Evelyn." "Evelyn." "It's a very simple combination of the words" ""evil" and "villain."" "Mr. Powell, lovely to see you." "And who's your little guest?" "This is Deion, my... foster child." "Oh, I-I know children aren't allowed in the dining room, but..." "No, it's not a problem." "I think what you're doing is wonderful." "And what am I doing, exactly?" "Well, becoming a foster parent." "Last year, my husband and I adopted a baby girl from Vietnam." "How liberal of you." "Well, I hope we'll be seeing more of you and your beautiful family." "Lunch is on the house today." "Well, thank you." "Do you think it's possible you could scare up some chocolate milk for Deion?" "Of course." "And if there's anything else I can do, please, just let me know." "Oh, how about a tee time?" "Oh, I'll have them squeeze you in." "Well, that was unexpected." "Not really." "White people love me." "Oh!" "Is this your little boy?" "Oh, he's adorable!" "Yeah, I suppose he gets that from me." "Oh, my God, Olivia." "What are you doing here?" "I let myself in." "You really should lock your doors." "There are a lot of nut jobs out there." "Yeah, I was just thinking the same thing." "How long has it been?" "A while!" "I was still working for Michael and Taylor." "You were stalking them." "I'm afraid I was a bit unstable back then." "But I can assure you, I am perfectly sane now." "Yeah..." "Have you spoken to Taylor?" "I heard about the breakup." "So sad." "You don't look sad." "Anyway, I'm here because I'm looking to hire a new maid." "Sorry, I don't have anyone..." "for you." "Oh, no." "I'm not looking to use your little agency." "I've actually found the maid." "I just need a reference for Jesse Morgan." "Jesse wants to work for you?" "Well, I hated my last cleaning lady, so I thought I'd try a cleaning man." "Is he any good?" "Uh... well, uh..." "Oh, dear." "That bad, huh?" "No, no, Jesse's..." "He's great." "I'm just not sure that you would be a good fit for him." "Because I'm such a perfectionist." "Thank you for your candor, Marisol." "I miss this." "We should do it again sometime." "Definitely." "What are you doing?" "I'm cleaning the chandelier." "You took it down from the ceiling?" "Well, don't worry." "I'll put it back." "But I dusted it yesterday." "You don't have to go to all the trouble." "Oh, I don't mind." "I'm just giving it a good scrubbing." "I told you, I am trying to impress Dr. Neff." "But I can't do that if you keep one-upping me." "I don't believe in doing things halfway so..." "But everything you're doing goes against "Maid Code."" " What's that?" " Maids have an understanding." "We've got each other's backs." "Sometimes you let me shine, sometimes I let you shine..." "Okay, first, I don't think "Maid Code" is a thing, and I intend to ask around." "And second, I refuse to do bad job just because you can't keep up." "But you're supposed to be helping me while I'm pregnant." "Well, the truth is, if you want to impress Dr. Neff, try being more... impressive." "See?" "That's helping you." "Oh." "You wanna dance, chica?" "Okay." "Let's dance." "Don't touch that." "It belongs to Dr. Neff." "Well, the dust on it belongs to Genevieve." "It's very precious to him." "I'll take care of it." "I can clean a vase, you lunatic!" "Aah!" "Uhh!" "What the hell was in there?" "Lurlene!" "Adrian, I'll be brief." "Child services is paying us a visit tomorrow, and they want to meet you." "Fine, I'll change my plans... again." "Deion, what the..." " Darling?" " No!" "No, no, no, no!" "I have to go." "Ah..." "My horse lost?" "He was a favorite!" "I told you not to bet on the favorite." "Next time, I'll listen to you." "Sorry I'm late." "What's the matter?" "Adrian hates our foster son." "Tomorrow, we have a home visit from child services, and I am certain Adrian will do something to ruin it." " Oh, dear." " I just wish there was something I could do to get that man to behave." " You should drug him." " Beg pardon?" "Drug him, make sure he's good and relaxed." "You're crazy." "I'm sorry." "That was insensitive." "Oh, it's fine." "Everyone knows I had some mild anger issues after Michael divorced me." "Then..." "I discovered these sweet little babies." "Now I'm happy as a clam." "It won't help me if he passes out at the table." "Oh, no, no, no, no." "In my experience, they just put you in a state of bliss, even in the worst of circumstances." "Do you really think it could work?" "Well..." "I took one 10 minutes ago, and I'm finding you utterly delightful." "Dr. Neff is gonna be so upset." "What am I gonna do?" "First, you're gonna get up and dust yourself off." "Just try not to track Lurlene all over the house." "Don't make jokes." "This is serious." "I'm covered in Dr. Neff's mom!" "It's okay." "Accidents happen." "Not to me!" "He thinks I'm perfect." "So you're not perfect." "He'll live." "No, you don't understand." "I owe him." "What do you mean?" "My dad took off when I was little, and then my mom got sick." "We couldn't afford a doctor, but Dr. Neff took care of her anyway." "And then after she..." "He gave me this job." "He took care of me like a dad." "So you don't want to disappoint him." "If he finds out about this, I'll be devastated." "Then..." "We won't let him find out." "What are you doing?" "!" "That's not Lurlene!" "It is now." "I told you how important that job was." "Why did you tank me?" "I didn't tank you!" "I said you were great." "You told ms." "Rice I wasn't a good fit for her." "No, I said she wasn't a good fit for you." " Olivia is nuts!" " So?" "Look, working for Olivia isn't your only option." "I've already lined up two job possibilities for you." "She pays 40 bucks an hour." "Whoa, she really is crazy." "All you had to do was say I was good." "Look, I know you're mad, but you don't know all of the things she's done." "Do we really want that kind of drama in our lives?" "In our lives?" "Marisol, do you think we're getting back together?" "Well..." "Not right now, but someday." "You just said you needed more time." "No, you said I needed more time." "Oh." "I thought..." "I don't know what I thought." "I-I'm sorry, I..." "No, no." "It's my fault, and... and don't worry." "I'll..." "I'll talk to Olivia again, and I'll get her to hire you." "It's the least I can do." " Jacklyn bought our story?" " Yeah." "So we're in the clean?" "Yes, but mira, we have to stop seeing each other for a while." "Why?" "We got away with it." "Because I'm this close to getting what I want, and Jacklyn is the key." "I don't wanna screw it up." "We just have to be more careful." "No, we cannot be together until the album drops." "So not more calling, no stopping by, no more nothing." "Mm-hmm." "Okay?" "Okay." "Sebastien, what did I just say?" "You said that we're not gonna see each other for a while." "That means we're gonna have to make this one count." "Why are you so good at that?" "Because I'm French." "Just this one last time." "Yeah." "When do you think you'll be back from México?" "All right." "Well, Ernesto, I have to go." "Hasta luego, mi amor." "Hey, Rosie, I'm heading out." "Going to the gym?" "Yep, I have my, uh, bag right here." "You look so nice." "Your hair is all done." "You've got your makeup on." " So?" " Well, if I were you," "I wouldn't want to get all sweaty right now." "Okay, uh, well, I'm, uh, I'm leaving my phone on in case you need me." "Don't worry, Mrs. Taylor." "You go have fun with your trainer." "Put your shoes on, papito." "We're going for a ride." "Mami, that was a stop sign." "Play your game, mijo." " Where are we going?" " It's a secret." "I have to pee." "You're a big boy." "Hold it." "Why are we at the park?" "Don't you have to go to the bathroom?" "Ay." "Spence?" "I'll just be a moment, Natalie." "Why don't you have a seat?" "Uh, where's Mr. Powell?" "Upstairs." "He's, uh, so looking forward to meeting you." "Really?" "Oh, yes." "He, uh, keeps going on and on about it." "Let me go fetch him." "Here I am." "What's all this?" "We're twins!" "Can you tell us apart?" "Adrian." "This interview could alter the course of Deion's life." "I will not allow you to make a mockery of it." "Now come." "I've made you a drink." "Oh, is this yours?" "I'm sorry." "I was parched." "Rosie, what are you doing here?" "Are you having an affair with Mrs. Taylor?" "No." "Why would you ask that?" "I took Miguel to the park today, and I saw you together." "Oh." "Well..." "Taylor's just a friend." "I rented her house, remember?" "If she's just your friend, how come she slapped you?" "Honestly, uh, that's personal." "Oh, my God." "You are having an affair with her." "No, no,... it's it's not like that." "I swear." "Were you with her when we were together?" "Of course not." "Did you start sleeping with her when I was in the hospital?" "Stop it." "This is all in your head." "Last time I was here, you told me you still loved me." "But you were screwing her this whole time!" "I am not the one that walked out on us." "That was all you." "Again?" "I can't even look at you." "I'm so glad you wanted to meet." "This is fun." "So fun." "Listen, I have to tell you something." " Girlfriend to girlfriend." " That sounds juicy." "The other day when I told you that Jesse wouldn't be a good fit for you," "I lied." "Why would you do that?" "When Jesse worked for me, our relationship became... romantic." "It's over now." "Not by my choice." "Oh, dear, this is juicy." "Anyway, Jesse is very attracted to older women." "Obviously, if he dated you." "Uh-huh." "Well, when I thought of him at your house with you being so..." "lovely and smart..." "Oh, my goodness." "You were jealous." "I was." "But Jesse really is a wonderful maid." "And you would be a fool not to hire him." "Say no more." "He's got the job." "Ah." "Terrific." "And don't worry about Jesse and me getting involved." "I'm seeing someone." "Oh!" "Who's the lucky fellow?" "I suppose there's no reason to keep it a secret now that they're separated." "It's Michael!" "Michael?" "We've been seeing each other for months." "What about Taylor?" "Well, the whore's finally getting a taste of her own medicine." "Her husband left her, she's a single mother, and that whole thing with her maid getting murdered." "Excuse me?" "Her whole life is falling apart." "I couldn't have planned it better myself." "Is Deion going to public school or public school?" "We've secured him a spot at Beverly Country Day." "It's private." "It's private?" "That sounds so fancy." "You're a couple of fancy Nancies." "That's a little rude." "Oh, I'm sorry." "Is your name Nancy?" "Ha ha ha!" "Ha ha!" "Okay, now tell me about Deion's diet." "Mostly we feed him glass and poison." "Wonderful, wonderful." "Natalie, will you give us a moment?" "I will if you will give me this." "I think this woman's on drugs." "What?" "That's absurd." "♪ Oh, Deion boy ♪" "♪ The pipes, the pipes are calling ♪" "Okay, I drugged her." "Why would you do that?" "It was an accident." "I was trying to drug you." " Oh, my God." " I didn't want you to sabotage this." "I thought you'd leap at the chance to have Deion taken away." "Look, I know I said I was afraid of getting attached, but the truth is, he's growing on me." "You mean that?" "If you wanna make Deion a part of the family," "I'm willing to give it a try." "Adrian, that makes me so happy to hear you say that." "Is it just me, or is this floor amazing?" "She's going to be a problem." "Hey, your segment's up next." "Why do you look nervous as hell?" "Because I'm nervous as hell." "Oh, honey, live tv can be nerve-racking." "Pre-show jitters are perfectly normal." "It's more than that." "It's everything." "It's being on TV and the album." "It's all finally happening, and I'm..." "I'm freaking out!" "Could you give us a minute?" "Now come on." "Carmen, you're always so confident." "What's going on?" "I've been trying to be a singer since forever." "It's been my dream." "But so many people along the way said I wasn't good enough." "And..." "What if they were right?" "They're not." "How do you know?" "Because I believe in you." "And I'm the best in the business." "So if I say you're good, you're good." "Yeah." " Thank you, Jacklyn..." " Oh." "For everything." "Now get out there and enjoy the moment." "Trust me, you deserve this." " Yes." " Mm-hmm." "Welcome back to "Hey, LA with Reese  Rick."" "And if you're just joining us, you missed Chef Kevin making these amazing cake balls." "They are actually amazeballs." "Can I say that?" "Is that dirty?" "Okay." "Our next guest is a rising star on the pop scene." "Her album drops next week." "Here she is..." "Carmen Luna." " Whoo!" " Welcome, Carmen." "You look fabulous." "Thank you so much..." "mwah... for having me here." "Mwah." "Yeah, so you are obviously new to the music scene." "Tell us about Carmen Luna." "For example, are you single?" " Oh!" " What?" "I can't even ask?" "Actually, I am completely in love... with my album." "Well, a little birdie told me that you are going to be a big sensation." "Ah, that was probably my producer, Jacklyn Dussault." "I just wanna give a shout out to her and everyone who has ever believed in me." "Oh, that's so sweet." "Well, why don't we get a taste for your music?" "Let's watch your new music video." "Great!" "That video was so much fun to shoot." "Dámelo, dámelo!" "Ah!" "Sebastien!" "Yowza." "Oh, good." "Wait, that... that..." "Stop that, that's not it." "That's not it." "Stop that, please." "That's not it." "Commercial." " Somebody stop that." " Cut to commercial." "Jacklyn!" "Hello, ladies." "Hi, Dr. Neff." "Oh, Zoila." "How nice to see you with a smile... for a change." "Well, Mother has certainly been polished to a lovely sheen." "Nicely done, Joy." "Wait a minute." "Why is Mother so light?" "Light?" "Is she light?" "I don't see how she could be light." "What on God's green earth is going on here, Joy?" "Uh, well..." "Uh..." "I dropped the urn." "I accidentally spilled your mother's ashes." " You what?" " I was dusting, and Joy told me not to touch it, but I thought I knew better." "For God's sake, Zoila, this was my mother." "It still is... mostly." "You can rest assured," "Genevieve is gonna hear about this." "I understand." "You took the blame for me." "Like I said, Maid Code." "We got each other's back." "But just so you know," "Spence and I are not having an affair." "Did he tell you to say that?" "No." "It's the truth." "We're in an addiction support group together." "Before you started working here, I had an overdose." "I was taking some prescription pills." "I thought that that was an accident." "It was, but it was also a wake-up call." "I realized that I'd become dependent on those pills." "I was using them as a crutch." "So I decided to get help." "I started going to meetings." "Uh, Spence was in the same group." "I already knew him, so I asked him to be my sponsor." "He's been helping me get my life back together." "So then how come you slapped him?" "With you working here, he felt it was getting too complicated." "He told me he can't sponsor me anymore." "Oh, my gosh." "I-I guess I just..." "I snapped." "Michael had just left me." "It felt like spence was abandoning me, too." "I wish he would've just told me." "He couldn't." "The support group is anonymous." "He was protecting me." "He's a good guy, Rosie." "You're lucky to have him in your life." "Go away." "Mon coeur, I saw the show." "I'm so, so sorry." "My life is ruined." "You think Jacklyn is going to work with me now?" "I have nothing." "You have me." "Jacklyn wants a divorce." "We don't have to hide anymore." "Maybe that's the silver lining." "Sebastien, this relationship was a mistake." "How could you say that after everything we've done to be together?" "What have we done?" "!" "We cheated on your wife." "We lied to her." "We used her." "We were horrible!" "You're upset." "You're not thinking clearly." "I'm thinking clearly for the first time in forever." "I hate who I am when I'm with you." "Mon coeur..." "I need you." "No, Sebastien." "It's over." "What happened?" "Well, we opened a lovely bottle of Bordeaux." "You had three glasses and got a little tipsy." "And we thought it best if you slept it off." "You don't remember?" "No." "Because it never happened." "I don't drink!" "You people drugged me!" "That's ludicrous." "Well, it'll be a cold day in hell before I allow a child to live here." "What?" "Adrian!" "Now just hold on." "There must be something we can do." "Excuse me." "Yes, Deion." "I took funny pictures of you." "Not now, sweetheart." "No, no, look, she was acting all weird." "I think your boss would like to see these pictures." "Deion, give that to me." "Not so fast." "We'll keep them safe for you, provided Deion can remain in our custody." "Oh, my God!" "This little boy is extorting me!" "I know." "Turns out he's a Powell after all." "Taylor told you about our support group?" "And I think you should keep being her sponsor." "She needs your help." "Her marriage is over." "You can't leave her, too." "You'd be okay with that?" "I'm sorry I got so angry." "I guess thinking of you with another woman still makes me crazy." "Believe me, I understand." "Which cheek did I slap?" "That one." "Better?" "Well, Taylor slapped the other one." "That hurts, too." "You're a great man, Mr. Spence." "You always do the right thing." "Yeah." "I hate that about me." "Don't be a stranger, okay?" "Dr. Neff?" "Zoila feels really awful about what happened." "It's not just about the ashes." "Ever since I moved in here," "Zoila has been trying to undermine my relationship with Genevieve." "Oh, I don't know about that." "Oh, I do." "And sooner or later," "Genevieve is going to have to choose between us." "And you are going to help her make the right choice." "I am?" "Yes." "I'm counting on you, Joy." "I'm sorry." "She ran right past me." "It's okay, Thomas." "I wanna hear what she has to say." "Well?" "I am so, so sorry." "When I met Sebastien, I didn't know how amazing you were." "So it was okay to screw him because you didn't know me?" "Look, I don't expect you to forgive me, but I just wanted you to know that I ended it with him." "I don't..." "I don't care about Sebastien anymore." "But you wanna know what hurts the most?" "I thought you and I were friends." "If it means anything, Jacklyn, that part was real." "It means nothing at all." "Anyway..." "I completely understand why the label would wanna drop me." "Oh, we're not dropping you." "What?" "You're still gonna release my album?" "I didn't say that." "I don't understand." "We have you under an exclusive contract." "So your album is gonna sit on a shelf and rot." "What?" "You can't do that!" "Of course I can." "You can't make music anywhere else." "I own you." "So Mrs. Taylor isn't having an affair." "You were right." "I've been thinking, and maybe you were on to something." "I spoke to Michael's ex, Olivia, and she claims that she's been seeing him behind Taylor's back." "Maybe Blanca knew, and that's why she was killed." "Maybe." "I can't imagine why Michael would go back to Olivia." "She's... certifiable." "She could be making it up." " There's something else." " Hmm?" "She said Blanca was murdered." "But everyone thinks Blanca killed herself." "Except us." "The killer knows the truth." "You think Mr. Michael's ex-wife murdered Blanca?" "If she did, she had help." "She couldn't do it alone." "Ay." "This is crazy." "Yeah, well... so is Olivia." "I just wanted to let you know that I'm sending you the rest of your money." "Everything's working out just as I planned." "No, no, you've done more than enough for me." "I'll take it from here."
