[upbeat music]
- * Oh *
- I just like hanging out with you.
- That's sweet.
[both laugh] That's really sweet.
I'm happy. I am.
- Trevor cheated on Maddi, and she went back.
- He already publicly embarrassed you once.
I don't see why he wouldn't do it again.
- Are they, like, together right now?
What's going on? - I think so.
I bet the makeup sex must be phenomenal.
- She's dick-matized for sure.
- Are they ----ing back there already?
- Oh, my God.
- You don't think Trevor really is sorry for what he did?
- I think Trevor is gonna do something
even more ----ed up. - I'll put money on it.
- I just don't wanna see you get your feelings hurt again.
- I'm just having fun.
There's nothing wrong with that.
- Trevor is, like, a stereotypical douche
in a movie. - I really don't care
what other people think or say.
- But, you know, there's always that saying.
- Once a cheater, always a cheater.
- Guess who cheated again? - No ----ing way.
- One of my clients comes to me and is like,
"They made out at the bar."
[dramatic musical sting]
- I believed him when he said he would never do it again.
- Told you so. - Told you so.
- Ha, I ----ing told you so.
- You're a ----ing liar! You told me she texted you,
and you blew her off.
You liar!
You need to stay the (BLEEP) away from my boyfriend.
- Maddi, Maddi. - You ----ed my boyfriend?
You're a ----ing twat.
[bright music]
[alarm ringing]
* *
- 'Cause you have to work hard to look good.
[grunts]
[razor buzzing]
- Wait, are you shaving off your whole beard?
- No, you'd be dating a 18-year-old if I did that.
- [laughs] When I met you,
you had no facial hair.
I was like, "Oh, my God, I'm dating Justin Bieber."
- That's your fantasy. - [laughs]
- You're welcome.
[both laugh]
Come give this soft beard a kiss.
Feel how soft it is.
- I've been sober for nine years, and I feel like
recovery taught me that people do
deserve second chances
because I had to fight for my own life,
and I got a second chance.
You wanna cook me breakfast? - Let's go.
- Trevor and I are living together.
We're happy.
And I'm in love.
- I wasn't planning on making breakfast.
I got a charcuterie board.
- Oh, I'll take that.
- For breakfast? Breakfast it is.
- I want the meats and cheeses.
- Meats and cheeses. - Yes.
- Wait, you did this? - (BLEEP) yeah, I did this.
- Look at you, being a housewife.
- And I'm gonna take the trash out.
- You've outdone yourself.
Being in a relationship with him,
it's stability for me.
It's comforting. It's... - [laughs]
- Looking into a future and seeing something.
- I would cook seven days a week,
but then you introduced me
to the world of never eating at home.
- [laughs] Despite everyone being against
my relationship,
I've always saw him as my soulmate.
- Are you a happy girl?
- Yeah, if I could eat this every day, I would.
- You want me to make a to-go bag for you?
- I obviously have to work bottle service, so no.
But that was very kind of you.
I like to be showered with love, respect, and food.
- I was gonna say sex. - And sex.
- I can do that.
* *
- Bronze goddess.
- Baby, I gotta head to work. - All right. Good luck.
- Okay. I love you. - Love you too.
Mwah. Mwah.
* *
- Here we go. * I wanna see you work it *
* Big moves on the circuit, yeah *
* Everybody know that you perfect *
* Work it, bada-boom when you twerk it *
* Girl, you're perfect *
* I wanna see you work *
* Work, work, work *
* Work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work *
- Hey, baby. - How are you, brother?
You do a lot. Nice to meet you, man.
Oisin's my name, eh.
- Oisin, how's it going? - I'm doing well.
- First night, I'm pumped for you.
I'm glad you're here.
- Republic is the true essence of Southern Hospitality.
[cheering]
That's why we've been in the business for ten years.
- * Gonna feel me, baby *
There's a ton of competition in Charleston.
- Shake it out. Game face. Let's go.
- But people come to my club
because my VIP team will always get the party started.
- All right. Let's go.
- I'll sit in the middle? - Yeah.
- By the light? - This is my spot.
- Anyhoo. - Who are you waiting for?
- Just Maddi and Joe?
- Maddi.
- Huh.
- Whatcha doing, bud?
- My shoes get dirty during the shift.
- Okay.
- Boo. - And we're not out.
You know that? - I know that.
We're all upset about it too.
- Yes.
- Sadly, over the past few years,
we got a little loose with our rules.
- I'm on cloud nine.
Okay, I gotta get to work.
- I'm happy I work here, so I can, like,
chill back here and just take a ----ing break.
- It's my fault because I do like to be a friendly boss.
If it were up to Lamar,
I don't think you would be here right now.
Kid, you gotta do better.
- [laughs] - Whoo!
- I am known to give first, second,
third, fourth, fifth chances.
But they need to remember that they are the hosts
of the party, not the guests.
- Look at us, shining and sparkling.
- So as of this year,
we're going back to the handbook.
Here are your rules. Show up on time.
Respect your managers. Don't drink.
- I'll take a fake one.
- I have a business to run. - Cheers.
- And if there's insubordination,
you're fired.
You're outta here.
- So in honor of Lucía not being here--
[booing] We all miss her so much.
- Boo! - She always brought sage.
- Aww. - So in honor of her,
let's burn some sage.
I miss her, and I'm sad she can't be here.
- I'm terminated via text message
telling me Lucía Peña is no longer employed
at Republic--
- You did drink on the job.
We're not supposed to drink on the job.
- It was just one swig.
- So you didn't get any warning from Republic at all?
- No. - I--no, no!
Literally, my first write-up in seven years.
- Firing a single mother for such a minor offense.
- What the f...
"fladoodles"?
- Before I even worked here, you guys know I was, like,
a big patron here, loved--love Republic.
And Lucía was my favorite bottle service girl
when I was here. - Right.
- Maybe we should pass it around.
- Blaze it. - Pass it.
- If Leva fired every employee
that had a shot of alcohol
in her establishment on the clock...
- I feel like Wiz Khalifa right now.
- She would have fired everybody
probably, besides Maddi.
- Y'all ready? - Yo.
- Maddi, hold on to this, girl.
- Lucía, she's--she's here, spiritually?
- Yeah.
- You want the hard copy for the host hand?
- I actually hate the smell of these things,
but, uh, it makes me miss Lucía.
- Don't worry. Give us this. I'll put it out, lad.
- All right, guys. Okay.
We're really booked out tonight.
Let's make sure we're on it.
- Let's just do a good job of pushing the high minimums.
- I got it.
- And then, Grace and Mia,
just give them the best first impression at the door.
- Yeah.
Last summer was not my brightest
as far as... the lady department.
- Yeah, Joe's an idiot.
- Very déclassé.
- Telling Maddi I had feelings for her
and going after Mia in the same hour--
probably not my best move.
I like you so much.
Of course I have feelings for you.
You know that, like, I'm not good at hiding that.
- Joe, you've kind of been a pussy about it.
You're telling me... - I still--
- How much you liked me--
[dramatic musical sting]
- Life lesson: do not mix romance and work, ever.
- Period. [laughs]
Luckily, Joe and I were able to move on
from his feelings for me
and go to a place where we're just friends.
- I'm done pining over Maddi.
And Mia no longer wants to rip my ----ing head off,
which is-- I'll take it.
- If I can bring them to the bar and TJ have a round
of shots for them ready, if that's possible--
- Yeah, that'll be good. - Hell yeah.
This year is a new Joe.
Let's shoot high tonight.
And I'm ready to get back in the game,
start dating around, play the field.
[chill music distorts]
I'm, like, twitching. I'm like, ugh.
[guffaws]
Wait, one more time.
[bell dings]
Oisin, this is your first night as a VIP server.
- Yes. Welcome, Oisin!
[cheering] - Welcome!
- Yay! - Big money.
You're gonna be the best bottle boy in town.
- ----ing am. [laughter]
- Tulum in the house.
- Grace and I met Oisin in Tulum.
- I was running a lot of events out there,
secluded parties in the middle of the jungle in Mexico.
- He was on the table dancin' with all the hot girls.
- He was wearing a orange ----ing Speedo.
I remember it, which I found weirdly attractive.
Yeah, we had a moment,
but it was literally just a moment.
- I love the girls, absolutely. [laughs]
- You got Emmy to train you, so--
- Amazing. - You gotta perform tonight.
- Don't worry. - Have you met Lea?
- I haven't, not yet.
- She's here. You'll meet Lea.
Lea and Leva want this room to be, like,
clean all the time now.
You're gonna have to clean that up.
- It's okay, darling.
- You're fired. - Yeah.
[laughter] - All right, y'all.
There's people here. We gotta go.
- All right, girls. Put me to work.
- * Let's go, hands in the air *
* And we're ready, let's go *
* Headed for the game, and we're coming, let's go *
- I'm good. I'm ready to go.
- Hello.
How y'all doing?
[laughter]
- * Ready, let's go *
- Whoa. [laughs]
- Hi, Olivia. - Hi. How are you?
- Here, let me walk you all to your table.
- Yes, he'll walk you in.
- They're ultra VIP right here.
- Yeah.
- Babe, are you gonna show me,
uh, some tricks or what?
Tell me, what's my--what are we--what are we doing?
- Well, we have a table set.
Usually, we get the order from Grace.
- I'm here.
- Do you know what the order is for that table?
- I'll go get a bottle of Dom.
Basically, we hold a bottle with a glow stick,
and we come out-- - Yeah, yeah. Oh, wait, we're--
- Whee! - No signs,
just bottles, glow sticks?
- Brad, do they have a sign? - What's up?
- Does table two have a sign? I mean three?
- Oh, yeah, yeah, just say superstars.
Say superstars. - Superstars is good.
[upbeat percussive music]
* *
- Hi, hi, hi. - Leave it there.
- Hey. both: How are you?
- Okay, so does it smell like weed in here to you guys?
- The sage. - What is this?
- Oh, Lucía's gone. Let the sage be gone.
- It's also, like, a fire hazard.
- Yeah.
- We promoted Lea to the big boss.
I just call her the hammer.
- I'm not emotional. - Yeah.
- We're running a business.
Let me do the dirty work.
- Yeah. - Let me handle these employees
so that we can keep rocking and rolling
the way we're supposed to.
- She was out in Vegas, working
for some big, well-known hotels.
And we kind of fought to bring her here.
She sets it straight. She's no nonsense.
She's so efficient. She's, like, on it.
- It stinks, it's gross, and it's a mess.
- Well, and why are they leaving it like that?
- We have to nip that in the bud.
- Are you gonna show me how to do the sign?
Is that what you're doing? - Yes, I'ma coach you up.
- Do you remember what the sign--what they wanted--
- Are you--are you-- - Superstars.
- Thank you. - Because they are superstars.
All of our tables are superstars.
- There we go.
You know how to spell "superstar"?
- Do I ever.
- I want some fire. - All right. You got the fire?
You got the fire. [cheering]
- Whoo!
[cheering]
* *
[bottle pops]
[cheering]
- Oh, there we go, baby.
- A shot?
- You know what? Are we allowed to have one?
Am I allowed to have one?
- I'll walk away. Don't get caught.
- That's how Lucía got fired. Are you kidding?
Like, uh-uh. Don't do that.
- All right, mate.
I get it.
- Um, okay.
So this is stressing me out. I'm gonna go--
I have, like, friends that came in tonight,
so I need to say hello and walk around.
- Yeah. Gotcha. - Yeah?
- * Baby, I'm caught up for you *
- Two, uh, Sprites, please. - Yeah.
- What's up, baby? - You look so nice.
- Hi. both: How are you?
- I'm good. How are you? What's up?
Hello, beautiful. - Nice trainers.
- The pink. - Thank you.
- Do you guys have Dom? - I got you.
- Don't take your eye out. Or mine.
- Whoo!
- That's why I'm not a server. - [laughs]
- I'll get you. - Okay, thank you.
- Hi. - Hi. Hello.
- How are you? - Great. How are you?
- Hi. Hi.
- Hi, I need to get up and greet you.
- Having fun? - Yes.
- Guys, whoo!
[cheering]
- Go, baby!
- What are you guys drinking, champagne?
- Champagne, baby.
- I would come sneak some with you,
but somebody just got fired
for drinking alcohol on the job, so.
I work at Republic for the good vibes,
but is this good vibes right now?
Absolutely not.
I gotta be on my p's and q's.
Leva is on a complete power trip.
We work in a nightclub, not a Chick-fil-A.
- Everyone is kind of on edge.
We're walking on eggshells right now.
- It's like if your parents went outta town,
and you throw a party,
and then all of a sudden, they pull into the driveway.
And you're like, "Oh, sh--."
[car honking]
That's how it feels like. [laughs]
- Good vibes, baby.
- Oh, my goodness!
Hi, beautiful.
- Oh!
[tense music]
- What's up? I love this hair.
- Ballsy.
- What's up, TJ?
- I'm not sure I would come back
to the scene of the crime this soon.
- She doesn't work here.
She got fired for drinking on the job.
- I have to talk to Leva. Like, I do want my job back.
This is about to be the hottest summer.
- Yeah, I-I would be wanting to crawl out of my skin
right now if I was in your shoes now.
- Oh, my God, Lea's about to come out of the back.
Tread lightly.
* *
- Who is behind that bar?
- I'm gonna check on table three.
- Okay. - Mwah, I love you.
Mwah. - Hey.
Sorry to interrupt.
I just did a lap.
Lucía is here.
- Yeah.
- I was about to go talk to Leva.
- Time and place probably not the best.
- I don't know what she thinks we can do for her.
Like, in my eyes, there's nothing else to talk about.
- I would just send a text
tomorrow morning, and be like, "Hey."
- No, I have not gotten any kind of communication
from Leva, so I don't--
- Maybe send her, like, a text or an email?
- I have been sending emails to talk about my termination.
- Oh.
- I've received a couple emails from her.
It seems like she is unable to understand her termination.
It's not negotiable. - Yeah.
If we brought her back, what example would that show
for the rest of the staff? - Right. It would be chaos.
It would be-- it wouldn't be right.
- Yeah. - And for the rest
of the employee morale, we absolutely have--
- Have to. - Nip that in the bud.
- I need more lipstick.
- Do you have lip-- lip gloss on you?
- I'm gonna go get some in the back.
- We need some lip gloss.
- Terminated after seven years. How disrespectful.
- Oh, gosh. This is a lot.
- You drank. You're caught. - Yeah.
There's nothing cool-- - It's against the rules.
- There's just no room for any sort of BS like that.
- Right, right. - It was a bad decision,
and unfortunately there's consequences.
- Yeah. - We've caught it. She's gone.
- Yeah.
[upbeat percussive music]
[cheering]
- How do you like it? How do you like it?
- If you ladies need anything else or another bottle,
let me know.
- So just trying to figure out the state of the state.
- You know me, I respect big balls.
- Big balls with me right now?
- Yeah, really big balls with you right now.
- But I haven't talked to Leva.
- Oh, Leva is in this building.
- I would appreciate an apology.
How 'bout "Sorry I disrespected your business"?
Like, I don't know if she thought maybe
because she has a relationship with me that she could do that.
But like, nobody gets special treatment
at the end of the day, you know what I mean?
- Yeah. - Let me check.
- Yeah.
- I got you.
[laughter]
- I know. It looks so good. - Thank you.
I got it for a big wedding.
And, like, I probably shouldn't wear it at work,
'cause I think I'm gonna destroy it, but--
- You're gonna get a bunch of lipstick marks on it.
- Yeah, I don't see-- I don't see too many
bachelorette parties around here, so I think we're good.
We need champagne glasses at every table.
- Where the (BLEEP) is Maddi? - I-I don't know.
You know, she's the manager of this place.
She's been nowhere to be found.
- Well, it's not surprising.
- Do you think that we should have an all-staff meeting
to remind everyone... - The rules...
- This year, yeah. - Of Republic Garden & Lounge.
- Yeah. - I think that's a great idea.
Let's do it. That's how we keep doing
what we're here to do. - Right.
- All right. Thanks, Leva. - Thanks, Lea.
- She doesn't know how to divide
her job and her personal life.
- Oh, I know. - She crosses those lines
every goddamn day. - All the time.
Now that Maddi and Trevor came back together,
she's been living in Delululand--
delusional land-- for a very long time.
She's gotten very complacent with her job.
Is it messed up? Yeah. But am I surprised? No.
Maddi doesn't know how to take responsibility for anything.
- Hey, I got, like, a little wind.
- Mm-hmm. - And...
- [laughs]
She wants Lucía to apologize for doing what?
- Drinking.
- No ----ing way.
- Check on everyone.
- I gotta ask, like, what's going on here?
Where's the hypocrisy coming from?
- Hi. Hi.
How are you guys? both: Good.
- If you guys are back here, who's in the front?
[laughs]
[playful tense music]
- Joe's out there; he's holding it down.
- Why do you guys look emo?
- You were looking for an apology
from Lucía for drinking on the job?
- I mean, her apology, like, would personally mean a lot.
But if I were in her position, if somebody's, like, put me--
employed me, brought me back, brought me opportunities--
- Brought her back? What, after pregnancy?
After having a baby? - Yeah. Well, yeah.
- After maternity leave, basically, like
what normal companies do for women?
- What are you doing, Mia?
- I-I'm upset. - What are you doing?
- I'm upset. - About what? About what?
If somebody-- - The hypocrisy
that you are showing as a boss. - The hypocrisy?
What are you talking about?
If you are back of the house and you're drinking,
immediate fire.
That's the rule!
Have you ever read your manual for being hired?
- If you drink back here, you're done.
- I just don't understand. I don't get it.
- I don't need you to get it.
- [laughs]
- Employees have drank here so many times!
- Okay, so who did I keep in here
who was drinking back there?
- Me.
- You? - Yeah.
- Then you should be gone too, Mia.
You are fired.
You're fired.
Walk out. You're done. Good night.
- You are being hypocritical as a boss.
- You don't need to work here. - Go ahead.
- You said you drink on shift. You're done.
If--if somebody else comes up to me and tells me
they're drinking, they will also be fired.
- You're not gonna (BLEEP) with me.
No, no, you're not.
- Mia, you're fired.
You are not an employee any longer.
- Okay, then we're done.
- And you don't even need to be
in the back of the building.
That's it. Out! Out.
Go ahead. - Okay, I'm out. Bye.
[tense music]
* *
We're both fired. She just fired me.
- What happened? - She just fired me.
- Over what?
- That I've had a shot before on a shift.
- You have no idea what I just witnessed.
- Holy (BLEEP).
That's ----ing crazy. - What happened?
- Leva just fired me. I'm out. [laughs]
- No!
- If there was any confusion about the rules,
now it's crystal clear.
- Are you guys good? - I fired Mia.
She just was like, "I drink on my shift
all the time and you let me stay here."
I said, "I didn't know you drink on your shift."
She will never work for me
in any capacity anywhere, ever again.
I have no words.
I hate firing people.
I'm not, like, some awful person.
But it's just something that I had to do.
We're running a business here.
I've never caught Mia on a camera drinking.
But if she's drinking and she's telling me
she's drinking, then leave.
- I mean, I don't agree with it whatsoever,
and I'm in your corner, and I think we all feel
the same way that you feel.
- It's bullsh--. I'm shook right now.
- Were you back there when the Mia thing was happening?
- Yes, how she was speaking to her,
I feel like it gave Leva no choice.
We've always been able to have a dabble,
a drink here or there.
There's no leeway or anything, you know what I mean?
both: Yeah.
- I do think rules are important.
But I've created this image
of people coming into the club to party with me.
So now that I can't anymore, like, who am I?
I'm not Joey Bottles anymore. I'm Joey Water Bottles.
- My friendship with Lucía
means more to me than this job.
I couldn't give a (BLEEP). Seriously.
- That's a real friend right there.
- I gotta go. I got gotta get the (BLEEP) outta here.
- All right. Bye, girl. Get home safe.
- Never a dull moment in Republic.
- Coming up...
- Do you know a kid named Trevor?
Does bike taxiing. - Yeah, unfortunately.
- He was buying me drinks the whole night.
One thing led to another.
- Did y'all make out?
[chill percussive music]
* *
[alarm ringing]
- Oh, my God.
- Will you grab the sweatpants?
- Yeah.
You're gonna put these sweatpants on?
- Yeah. Pants, one leg. - [laughs]
- You're not supposed to laugh when you look at it.
- Babe, don't act like you have a small dick.
- Okay, come on. Up the butt.
Not up the butt, up the butt.
[lively music]
* *
- Oh.
- [exhales] Please God, protect me.
I'm feeling a lot of different energies.
- I'm still beautiful, thank God.
- * I wanna radiate like the sun *
* Before I-I burn out bright *
* My supernova *
* I'm building my empire *
[Richard Macklin's "My Empire"]
- I haven't been to a meeting in a while.
Scary, scary.
- Hello, hello. How are you?
- How we doing? - Good. How are you doing?
- I'm phenomenal.
- Hey. - TJ.
- What's the craic in Iraq? - He's back!
How are you doing, baby? - Hello, hello.
- Doing well. - What up? What up?
- I'm still alive. How are you, darling?
- What's up?
- I'm a little nervous about this meeting.
There's a lot of tension going on.
- Yes. - Or is someone else
getting fired tonight, is there?
- Are you telling or asking? - I'm asking.
- I haven't been here, so I haven't done anything...
- You have no-- - That's fireable.
I haven't been here. - All the girls are--
- Dropping like flies. - Dropping like flies.
- Yeah. - That's it.
It's a man's world now, isn't it?
- Damn right. - The boys.
- How are you? - Hi, ladies.
- How are you? - What's up?
- Welcome in. - Hey, lady.
- Hi. - Hello.
- Hello, hello. - Hello, everyone.
- Hello. - Hey, Miss Lea.
- How are ya? - Good, how are you?
- Hi. - Hi, Leva.
- Look at William.
He's back. - Yes.
- Whoo. - Yeah.
- How's the champion?
- It's gonna be a few more weeks, probably.
I dislocated my shoulder in a charity boxing match
for the Children's Hospital in town.
- Whoo!
Nailed him perfect!
[blows landing] - I tore my labrum.
But I won the fight.
It was for a good cause.
I looked like a badass.
[bell dings]
It was like my Rocky Balboa moment.
- How are you feeling? - Better every day.
- Thanks to me. - Yeah. I'm sure!
Hottest nurse ever.
- First week of June I'll be out of the sling,
and like, good to go. - Okay, cool.
Um, so yeah, regretfully, it wasn't the best week.
Obviously, we know we lost Mia and we lost Lucía.
I don't ever like to let any of you go.
But what Lea always says is, like, "Don't fire yourself."
There's nothing I can do for you
when you break the rules.
- I'm gonna make it crystal clear again right now.
Drinking is not permitted at Republic Garden & Lounge.
We're not gonna allow that sort of behavior any longer.
- Got it.
- Bollocks. [laughs]
- You think our best sales night everyone's been sober?
- They're gonna wanna order another bottle,
because they wanna party with us.
- Don't ruin the vibe. It's wavy, baby.
- I can get through a shift sober, but they can't.
- I don't know how Maddi does it.
It's gotta be hard.
[bell dings]
- Let's get back to the fun part of it.
Let's get back to having a great time.
It's an incredible job.
I want all of you to make great money.
And I think that the next few years
for this company are just gonna be epic.
- You guys are rock stars.
- You are rock stars, yeah. - We appreciate you.
- The show must go on, as they say.
So let's just change the energy.
Let's get back to happy times.
- And let's go... - And let's go work.
- Do what we do. - Yeah?
- Awesome. Let's get this started.
- Thanks, guys. - Let's work.
- Let's get it.
- I break the boundaries a little bit, always.
I know Mia usually does this, but if you went straight to TJ
at the bar and get them a first round of shots for free...
- Sure. - And then we can walk 'em
to the table. - Yeah. Follow me.
- This job is not, like, some side hustle for me.
I didn't go back to college
because of my passion for this industry.
I wanna get them inside now.
There you go, superstar.
This is my career.
I'm Joey Bottles, and I can't lose that.
All right, ladies. Y'all ready?
- Yeah. - Let's do it.
[Blues Saraceno's "Devils Got You Beat"]
* *
- Let's do it.
* *
You ready to go? - Hey, Brad.
- Good to see you. - Good to see you too.
- Um, start on the bike.
You ready to die?
- Yeah, I need you to kick my ass.
- All right, are you trying to kill demons inside of you?
- Oh, yeah. Um--
- [laughs] Oh, yeah.
Hit it, go, go, go, go.
My personal training business,
Body by Brad, has grown exponentially.
Last year I was maybe seeing friends one-on-one
or in small groups.
Last one. You're shakin'. - One more.
If the legs aren't shakin'-- - The booty ain't baking.
Move your ass, Joe Bradley!
Let's go! Let's go!
Now it's, like, 20 to 30 clients a week.
There we go.
Kind of goes hand in hand with Republic.
I meet some of my clientele there for Body by Brad.
You gotta come to class. Come to one of my classes.
Come on. - I'll go this week.
- Fuego,love it.
Keep it one leg at a time. Good job.
- Ah, I'm gonna throw up.
- Are you hungover today?
- Oh, I was with my girlfriends.
- Yeah?
- And we had ourself a night.
- Post-breakup...
- Yeah. - Living your best life.
- Oh, I was, like, really excited.
- Why? What's up? - I met someone.
- Oh.
- Do you know a kid named Trevor?
- Trevor? - Um, he does bike taxiing.
- Really? Yeah, unfortunately.
- Oh. - Yeah, I know--
yeah, I know who you're talking about, yeah.
Trevor, Maddi's boyfriend.
- Maddi? - Maddi. Yeah.
They've been dating for, like, over a year now.
They, like, live together.
- They live together? - They live together.
They're literally, like, a couple.
- I didn't know he had a girlfriend.
He was with all his boys,
buying me drinks the whole night.
We were touching each other, really flirting,
and, uh, one thing led to another.
- Did y'all make out?
- Yeah.
- [laughs] Oh!
Hold on. Hold on.
No, are you for real? Are you serious?
- You would have had no clue he had a girlfriend
by the way he was acting.
- Oh, sh--.
- I feel bad for Maddi.
- But, like, honestly, it's karma.
She did that to herself.
I had a girlfriend.
- Uh-huh. - She was really sweet.
Like, we got along great,
like, phenomenal chemistry.
We hit it off, and then Maddi told her that I was, like,
in the back alley behind Republic
getting my ----ing dick sucked
next to the raccoons and trash.
- Maddi was telling me not to be friends with you
'cause you're a cheater.
- Why are you telling Kayla,
"Hey, you need to watch out for Brad"?
That's ----ed up, Maddi.
It's not lost on me Kayla and I broke up
because Maddi wanted to tell lies.
- Do you wanna see the texts?
- Oh, my God. All right. All right. All right.
Okay, okay, okay. Show me.
- 2:04 a.m. Mm-hmm. - That is wild.
Karma is a nasty, fickle bitch.
I'm gonna get a picture of this.
Dude, perfect.
And that's why you got cheated on--twice.
Holy sh--. Oh, he's so ----ed.
Oh, my God.
[upbeat music]
- Move. Jesus.
(BLEEP).
Get out of the way! [honking]
(BLEEP).
Oh, now the horse carriage shows up? Perfect.
- I'm gonna have a coffee.
* *
Don't you dare. - [laughs]
- Trevor's the only person that I've ever met
that gives me that, like, ugh.
- Baby, I need help.
- Trevor's my big love.
[laughs]
- Get it.
[meows]
All right, Fergie.
We got the Empress, the Sun.
I rule my emotions. They don't rule me.
This year is all about self-care.
I just want good energy
and anything negative to be shaken away,
'cause I'm trying to shake this ass.
Yeah, and get that cash. [cash register dings]
[meows]
[cell phone ringing]
- Hey, Mom.
Hey. - Joe!
- I miss you. - I know. I miss you.
- I know.
- I'm working a double later.
[relaxing ambient music]

[dog barking]
[bell rings]
[doorbell chiming]
- Thank you.
Tavern fries.
[doorbell chiming]
[gasps] Well, hello, darling. - Emmy!
- Look at you. You look beautiful.
- Thank you. Oh, it's looking stunning in here.
- Thank you.
I got your favorite, Little Jack's.
This is a double with fries and then Tavern with fries.
- [gasps] - What do you want?
- I want this one. Emmy! Thank you.
Where am I putting this?
- You can go sit right over where the candle is.
- Sorry I showed up empty-handed.
I've been a little bit of a mess.
- Same, I had to take Will
to his physical therapy appointment,
and just driving from here all the way up to Johns Island
and back to my apartment, back to pick him up,
drop him off at his house, drive back downtown.
- He should be paying you. - Um, yes, I know.
Last year, I was on track for happy wife, happy life.
Mia, um, oh, I hate to-- - Ready?
- Yeah.
- This year, Will is in a sling,
and I don't have a ring.
Thank you. I'll let you.
Good thing I love him.
Um, I'm having a bite of my cheeseburger now.
- Okay, let me try the--
this is--this is it.
- That's damn good.
- Thank you so much. - Mm-hmm.
- Wait. Cheers first. Oh!
- Mm-hmm.
- [laughs] Cheers.
- Cheers, Mia.
So how are you? - [exhales]
- Let this be a warning lesson to all of us.
You know, Lucía was one more lesson.
Don't drink on the job.
Lesson number two, don't yell at the boss.
- I was really disrespectful to Leva.
I see that now.
- Would you wanna set up a meeting with Leva?
[tense music]
- Absolutely not. - [laughs]
- After an argument or a heated discussion,
you think back and you say,
"What could I have said better?"
Or "I wish I would have said this instead."
I'm not thinking of any of that.
[laughing] I am on a righteous high.
Republic is not my main source of income anyway.
I work 9:00 to 5:00 in finance every single day.
- If Maddi would have actually tried to stick up for you,
like, I feel like this would be a different story
that we're talking about right now.
- You are fired.
[dramatic music]
- She doesn't protect her employees
that she is in charge of.
And I've lost faith
and, like, respect in her.
- I'm upset with her-- the way that she's handled
this entire dilemma.
I'm getting heated now thinking about it.
- Maddi's been with the company for, what, four or five years?
When she started dating Trevor,
I feel like she lost her mojo within the company.
- Great point, Emmy. - And so...
- (BLEEP). - I'm just like--
I don't know how Leva doesn't see that.
- She's the face of Republic, remember?
- Maddi claims to be the bitch that runs this bitch,
but she doesn't care what we do at work anymore.
She just wants to be with Trevor 24/7.
I don't trust Maddi to handle things accordingly.
I don't trust her with issues that we have on the job.
- Yeah. - I don't trust her to delegate
and take care of things
that she tired to delegate and take care of.
She can kiss my ass.
[bell dings]
[chuckles]
- * Summer young *
* We're gonna live until forever ever, ever, ever *
[Bleeding Fingers' "Summer Young"]
- All right.
* *
- You need ice? - Uh, yes, please.
- I got you. - Oh, (BLEEP).
I gotta take my birth control. L-O-L. Ha ha.
- * Summer young *
- I'm gonna grab champagne glasses.
Day Club Sunday is my favorite shift of the week.
The demand of Republic is so high,
we wake up the next morning to do it all over again
to maximize sales.
I love a good darty--
day party, darty.
Ay. [laughs]
Let's go!
[bright dance music]
- You're a vibe right now.
See, you're ready to have a Sunday.
- I'm the VIP guy here.
I'm trying to, like, promote the day party.
I could get y'all a really good deal
if y'all wanna do, like, a table
for the rest of the day.
- 600.
What do you want the sign to say?
- You're a DJ? I'm a DJ. - What's your ID?
- I swear to God, I'm a DJ.
- I think yeah.
Let's get the party started.
- Maddi looks so hot. - Maddi is hot.
- She's, like, one of the hottest girls.
- Yeah.
- Yep. - Oh, really?
- Yeah.
- It's gonna ask you if you wanna tip additionally.
You don't have to.
- You only have to if you love us.
- You're so sweet.
- * I just wanna have a good time *
* Need no drama *
* Just wanna have a good time *
- Hey. Mikel's here.
- I can give you guys this table back here.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm gonna bring out champagne.
We'll make it a party. - All right.
I only work once a week at Republic
'cause I work another job.
So when I come in,
I'ma bring my friends to spend some money,
throw a little ass, pop some bottles,
and have some fun.
[cheering]
When I'm off-shift, you can't fire me for drinking.
[laughs]
Oh, oh, oh!
[cheering]
- Who are you celebrating?
- Oh, my God. Congratulations.
What does the bride like to drink?
- Tequila?
- All right. - You guys good on drinks?
- Yes. - There you go, sir.
- We got four tequila shots.
- Here you go, guys.
- To the bride!
- Oh, (BLEEP). [laughs]
- You guys need anything else right now?
- Good? Okay. Perfect. - Thank you.
- Yeah.
- No! - Yeah. No, no.
both: Oh!
- So... - I'm listening.
- Maddi could be single again.
Trevor was with one of my clients.
He was hitting on her in the bar, flirting with her,
blowing up her phone all night, trying to get her
to come home with him. - That's ----ed up.
- She told me that they were, like, making out.
- Whoa. - Surprised. Holy sh--.
Here. I'll show you.
Yo, Trevor. Boom.
"Shut up, ha ha. I blacked."
"That makes two of us."
Like, why are you-- if you have a girlfriend,
why the (BLEEP) are you texting that girl?
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- How did she take it?
- I'm gonna talk to her today.
- [laughs]
- I-- [indistinct]
- Got it. Yeah.
- This is gonna be a sh--storm.
And I'm definitely here for it.
[chuckles]
I thought I was bad. - Right. God damn.
[cheering]
- Can I get another one of those and a Coors Light?
- Sh--, my bubbles broke.
- Yeah, let's do it. Come here.
- Okay. Come on.
- Awesome.
- Brad, do you know how to turn one of these on?
- Yeah, but you need a screw to get to the batteries,
a screwdriver.
- Give me a bubble.
- So how are you and Trevor?
- We're--we're good.
I feel like we're at that age where you don't date
for fun anymore. - Right.
Well, dating for fun's stupid.
- And now we're happier and closer than ever.
You know what I mean?
- We ended up kissing.
[echoing] Kissing, kissing.
- Well, you know I-- just making sure,
'cause one of my clients come to me and is like,
Trevor's been texting her multiple times.
[dramatic musical sting]
- Um...
- I mean, he showed me the text messages.
Like, nothing happened. Blah, blah, blah, blah.
He was super apologetic.
I don't have time for Brad and his bullsh--.
Trevor laid out that whole night to me
and was honest.
He told me everything that happened.
And I just feel like Brad doesn't want me to be happy.
Stay out of my relationship.
- I mean, did he leave out the part that he was, like,
making out with her and, like, trying to grind on her?
[tense music]
- What did Trevor do?
- I thought you understood that.
They made out at the bar.
- No. - So do you not believe me?
* *
- You should be with someone you trust.
And if you don't trust 'em, then that's that.
- ----ing liar. Hell no.
[dramatic music]
- One of my clients comes to me and is like,
they made out at the bar.
[tense music]
----ing liar.
Hell no.
[line trilling]
- Your call has been forwarded to--
- What the (BLEEP)?
[line trilling]
- Your call has been forwarded to an auto--
- (BLEEP) this sh--.
I-I gotta go.
[intense electronic music]
* *
- If I did that, I would get written up.
- 100%.
* Let me tell you that God's gonna cut you down *
- What an idiot.
What a ----ing idiot.
- Where is Joe? - Joe!
- There you are. - Here, come inside.
He's mad.
[chatter]
- What's going on? both: Maddi just left.
- Trevor cheated on Maddi with one of my clients.
- Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
- She's like, "Yeah, we made out."
- Are you sure they made out, though, or--
- That's what she told me.
- Oh, my God.
Got a lot of balls.
[sighs]
- TJ, Brad told Maddi that Trevor is cheating on her,
and Maddi just left. - (BLEEP).
Did she leave? - She's gone, yeah.
She just clocked out.
- He has a nice TV that's getting smashed.
- I'm just glad this ----ing loser
is hopefully out of our lives for good.
Every negative thing about her is because of him.
- Like, yeah, if you wanna put it on someone else,
that's fine, but you can't--
you made that choice on your own.
Like, she's still a grown woman.
- She gets in denial.
She's always in denial. - Yeah.
[tense music]
* *
[line trilling]
- What the (BLEEP)?
- What the (BLEEP), Trevor?
- Take the mic off. - Step away from the door.
- All right. [door slams]
- You were making out with some ugly ----ing ho?
- (BLEEP) you!
I ----ing pictured getting married to you
and having kids with you.
I thought you ----ing changed.
- You're lying.
- I can't sleep in the same bed as you.
- ----ing piece of sh--.
I don't know how you look me in the eyes.
How can you do this to me?
- [sobbing] I just wanna be happy.
[sobbing]
- Next time on "Southern Hospitality"...
- What's on your curtain?
- That could have been, like, a misfire.
I don't know. [laughter]
- Hello!
How are you? - Hey.
- Liam and I eat food, cuddle, and have sex.
I mean, what's better than that?
[laughs] I'm so grateful for you.
- Damn, Leva, I'm just trying
to literally get my ----ing job back, babe.
- You just lied to my face!
Liar! - Okay.
- [sobbing]
You're a ----ing liar!
