Previously on "Southern Hospitality"...
We're in Miami! Let's----ing go.
Our trip to Miami started off slippery.
- Let's go! - But what do you expect
when everyone's getting wet?
Meanwhile, Grace was double kissing...
It was a good time.
Brad was double dipping--
And Joe was double crossing.
Joe showed me the group chat
with everyone talking negatively about me.
Joe Bradley showed her our private group chat.
- Great. - Yet I got blamed
for blasting Maddi on a group chat.
If you have a concern, you can come to me about it.
- I did. - She did.
So now that our trip down South went south--
I'm Maddi Reese, bitch, and I look forward
to never having to see you again.
See you tomorrow, on the flight.
I'll change my flight, bitch.
It's gonna to be a bumpy ride back to Charleston.
Shishito peppers?

♪ When I walk in the room, room, room ♪

Ugh.
I probably should wash this first, but whatever.
Hello, honey.
I'm good, but Miami wasn't that great.
Aw, thank you.
A tear just ran down my leg.
♪ Love has got a hold on me ♪
I can't pay someone to do this?
This is what boyfriends are for.
Do you want to help me move some stuff inside?
Sure.
Good to have you back.
Thanks for moving me in.
I'm gonna move you back in first.
You're moving in.
Yay.
- Hello! - Hello.
Welcome back. - How's it?
- You got a little burnt. - How you doing?
- I'm shagged. - Miami will do it to you.
- Yeah. - Did you sleep at all?
Not much, no.
- No drama? - Never.
- Nothing? - Chill the out.
What, are you squaring up on Mia?
You don't even work here, so go home.
Whoa.
You can't talk to a girl that way.
What the actual ?
You're full of sh--.
♪ I know you like
♪ What you see
I really want to try
the coconut sticky rice bowl.
And I'm gonna do the fried fish basket, too.
Thank you.
This is a cute little area.
Yeah, let's sit over here.
I want to see the marsh.
Oh, my lord, the marsh.
Oh. How are you? - I'm good.
We got a lot to catch up on. - Yeah.
- Miami was fine. - Yeah, how was ?
We missed you.
So much went down, honestly,
I can't even keep up with it.
Lucía and Bradley started making out.
Yeah, they----ed that night.
A lot.
And I did hook up with someone as well.
I'm definitely ready to go back to Miami and pop off again.
OK?
Beez in the trap.
What else did you guys do?
Sh--popped off at Joia Beach.
What happened at Joia Beach?
I feel bad for Maddi because she did get attacked.
Bradley confronted Maddi
about blowjob alley.
You were lying about me getting head
in a dumpster last year.
I didn't see it.
I was not there.
- I did not see anything. - I didn't see that.
Was there any resolution to dinner at all?
Or was it just-- - No.
I definitely just feel bad for Maddi
because I could tell that she was stressed.
Did Joe defend Maddi, or was Joe being Joe,
playing both sides?
Was he like, "Uh, uh, uh, uh"?
I feel like he was like, "Uh, uh, uh," for sure.
Did he show you in the group message
where he calls you a narcissist?
I was concerned about--
Think about what you're gonna say before you say it,
please.
You say a lot of bullsh--
He's a----ing brainless bitch.
The sh--that he goes through
is because of his own actions.
It's like, bitch, be real.
Be a friend.
Be a man, Joe. - Be a man, Joe.
It's like, what kind of person can smile on your face
and talk about you behind your back?
A fake-ass bitch.
It's hard when you put all of us together,
and some of us don't see eye to eye.
- Yeah. - And there's disagreements.
And I just wish we go about it and help your way.
OK, shut up.
I'm coming.
All right, back at it.
There we go. How are you doing, darling?
How are you feeling, post-Miami?
I know, but I was disappointed in myself.
No, no, no, no, we're good, of course.
Like, I'm not mad at you.
You are someone that's close to me.
- Yeah, yeah. - Does that make sense?
Yeah, you guys aren't friends with her.
You're right. I am not.
It feels sh---y to be back at work.
I don't want to be back around Maddi,
but at least I could finally clear the air
with this whole rumor that's been plaguing me
literally since last summer.
And now everyone knows Maddi is a liar.
Like, I want--and I'm sorry at this point, but like--
Did Chris just walk through here?
- Yeah. - He did.
All right, I'm gonna start filling sh-- up.
How is-- how have you been, anyway?
I feel a lot better.
Thank god Trevor pulled up to Miami.
Oh, no.
We're already crying.
Hi, baby.
Between you and I, a lot of the----ing stress
and drama that comes from my life comes from that group.
So, like--
I'm down to move on.
I'm over it. - It'll all blow over.
At the end of the day, if someone--
if a group of people were talking sh-- about you
behind your back, would you want to know?
No, I don't give a .
I can't hear you. Wait, what?
It's super hard coming to work
after everything that happened in Miami
because Brad is like a mosquito.
Even if it's good or bad, you're doing something right.
They're talking about you, like--
Yeah.
Imagine worrying about somebody else
your whole----ing day.
Like, that's brilliant.
Well, I don't give a about you.
- Here you go, love. - Thank you.
Of course.
Yeah, it'll take time.
Cheers.
Thank you.
Your hands are good.
Yeah, I'm bartending again this week.
Leva was like, "You're out of the sling."
And I was like, "I'm ready to go.
"Put me back in, Coach," you know?
Because you're a good bartender.
Yeah. I am a good bartender.
I've been bartending for 10 years.
Where'd it go?
I'm so sorry.
It's all good.
Will, you're a bartender.
You know better. - I do know better.
Cheers because you're chasing your dreams.
Cheers because I love you.
I'm really excited for you to go to law school
'cause when I think of you going to law school,
it's really hot.
And two, it's so beautiful.
Are you excited to be on this campus every day?
Except for the days I'm visiting you.
Yes, you do. Give me a little kiss.
Give me a little kiss. Mwah.
You're not just talking and talking about it.
Yeah, but I'm also going away.
You're going an hour and a half away.
I can make a playlist, and it will go by so quick
every time I drive to you.
I don't think it's as real for you as it is for me.
I'm a very, like, in-the-moment person.
And in the moment, right now, our reality is,
you're still here.
And so I don't really have those feelings
going through me.
I think it's gonna be exciting at first.
And then, like, after Christmas,
you guys are going to be like, "Oh, we already went up there.
"I already saw the zoo.
"I already went to a football game.
I already visited Will."
I'm not gonna get bored of you.
What the ?
No, you're in denial.
I'm in denial, OK, fine.
- You are in denial. - I'll admit it.
I love that Emmy has rose-colored glasses
about the whole situation,
about the distance, about the hardships,
about the stress.
But I'm scared about the future.
And she's being so optimistic that, in a way,
I don't really feel heard.
If I get the job I want at Republic, like,
I can talk to Leva about the reality of my situation
to be like, "I understand there's manager meetings.
Like, is zooming in a possibility on Tuesdays?"
Just Thursdays.
Joe Bradley makes it seems like they're every----ing day.
Yeah, well, Joe Bradley doesn't have the--
How does he never make it to--anyways,
I don't want to talk about Joe Bradley.
I'm most pissed off at Joe because Joe
was never supposed to show that group chat to Maddi.
You know, Joe showed me in a group chat
with everyone talking negatively about me,
and it was just very, very hard to see.
- By Joe showing her that - ing group chat,
the intent got blown out of proportion.
I'm evil. I'm this. I'm--
You know what I mean?
Joe Bradley called her a narcissistic child moron,
and she's not upset.
Yes, she's upset with you for being concerned...
- Because I was concerned. - In a group chat.
I don't think I--
Maybe you just don't talk to her outside of work.
Like, you guys aren't friends, are you?
My dad built our beach house
with his bare hands, like Isle of Palms--
my family's happy place.
Yeah.
I'm just ready to be home
and have some motherly love and comfort after this weekend.
For sure.
Thank you so much, sir.
Five stars and a tip.
Appreciate you. - Just the tip.
Hello? - Hey, guys.
Oh, hi.
I'm so happy to see you.
The mama's boys have arrived.
- Are you hungry? - Hi.
- Hi, baby. - Yeah, we're pretty hungry.
We kind of had a late lunch. - Do I look hungover?
Your hair looks nice.
- We're down to snack. - Hi.
- How are you?
- Good.
Do you want some crackers and a little bit of cheese?
That does sound amazing.
I'm hoping TJ'll make some margaritas.
Unless we take chilled shots, which is also not--
I'm not taking a shot.
Y'all are wusses.
That's what I'm saying.
Our moms met last summer.
Joe and I introduced them at a dinner,
and I feel like they've become best friends.
It's kind of funny now because if we were to go to dinner,
it would just be them two talking.
Me and Joe would be invisible.
Did TJ ever go through, like, an awkward stage like I did?
- Joe looked like a rabbit. - I had very bad teeth.
This was pre-first set of braces.
I just hated when I was that age.
- Same. - I was awkward.
- Same. - I--you know,
I was trying so hard to be in the cool crowd.
TJ, do you notice that in Joe now, in your friend group?
Joe does exhaust himself with, like, pleasing people.
He was the victim of Maddi's manipulation.
I don't think anyone can manipulate me.
I showed her the group text out of concern
and out of love for her.
And I don't regret it.
I would do the same for any of my friends.
Focus on taking care of yourself
and not everybody else's drama.
Yeah.
It freaks me out.
I see, like, our friend group getting ripped apart.
Well, it's just like being a parent with a child.
You can only tell a child so many times,
"Don't put your hand on a grill.
Remember, the grill's hot."
Yeah.
I think I just need to kind of take a step back
from everything and focus on work.
That's the only way I know how to cope.
Coming up...
I lost you because of a lie.
So do you want to know what I did?
What's that?
I literally called the girl Sammie.
♪ Let's go, let's go
♪ You're nothing I need
♪ Let's go, let's go
♪ You're nothing I need
♪ Let's go, let's go
♪ You're nothing I need
♪ Don't ask for me
Hello, beautiful.
Your pearl awaits.
I love this.
- Do you like it? - You look handsome.
- I appreciate it. - Hi.
- Good to see you. - Good seeing you.
- How are you? - Good.
- You smell amazing. - Thank you.
I got a couple of snacks.
I hope you like-- - So cute!
It got really hot and heavy in Miami.
And now, we know that we connect
on that physical level.
But was it real or just having fun on vacation?
I don't know.
Do you work tonight?
- No, I got off tonight. - Oh, OK.
You got off for me? - For you, duh.
Or are you gonna get on me, too?
If that's an option.
Speaking of, did you talk to Davon?
About you and I? Yeah, I did.
I did it over the phone. - OK.
I caught that vibe today.
Oh, you saw at the gym?
What was that vibe you caught?
No worries. Which is a message.
Since Davon and I broke up last year,
our relationship is strictly revolving around Lucas.
OK. Have a great weekend.
But due to the fact that they're both trainers,
and here in Charleston,
the fitness community is so small,
I just wanted Davon to hear that from me.
It was just a quick conversation.
Bradley and I, we are pursuing one another.
And we also had sex in Miami.
Slide that in there.
And, wah, right up under there.
And I was like, OK. Thank you for your time.
OK, thank you. Bye.
- Go back to training now. - Yeah.
So here, salud to--
Transparency.
Cheers.
It's been really fun to explore this.
And we haven't had that exclusivity talk yet.
And it's OK.
I want what's best for you. I want what's best for us.
And I'm kind of--
Thanks for saying "us."
What does exclusive look like to you?
Exclusivity, to me, means we're not seeing other people.
It means you are no longer single.
I want to feel always on cloud nine when I'm with you.
And I love that.
So if there isn't a----ing need to be exclusive,
there isn't a need to.
I'm just treading lightly.
Being a mommy, I have to be conscientious
of the energy that I do bring around Lucas.
However, I really love all the effort that Bradley is doing.
I definitely don't want to put any pressure
on the situation as a whole.
I don't want to put a timeline on things,
but I feel like it's reasonable to have something
to look forward to.
And you know, I feel like a month,
you know, this would be a different kind of conversation.
To be honest with you, dating someone with a child
is terrifying to me.
I'm nervous.
I'm anxious. I'm unsure.
And that's something I have to be mindful of.
There's a lot of factors in this relationship.
And with her being one of my best friends already,
I have to handle this with extreme care.
Lots of things could elevate in 30 days.
And I hope they do.
I'm looking forward to 30 days.
That's all I got. - Are you getting nervous?
I am getting nervous.
Cheers to exploring
for just a little bit longer.
Yes.
Can we get a table for two?
- Yeah, of course. - Thank you.
It's got, like, beach vibe,
but we're not on the beach.
Mexican food, my favorite food.
Hey. How are y'all doing?
- I'm good. How are you? - Good.
Can I get y'all started with something to drink?
This passion fruit puree with coconut water sounds good.
I'm gonna do a Miami Vice.
I'll bring y'all some water and chips and salsa
as well for you. - Thank you.
You're welcome.
You look good.
Like, I can't believe we're back in a relationship.
Life's worse when you're not around.
I love you a lot.
All right, I got that Miami Vice for you.
Oh, yeah. That looks delicious.
There's that Virgin Hydrator.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
I know you love me,
and I do love you, I really, really,
really, really, really do.
Can I have a kiss?
I don't want to mess up your lip gloss,
so I'll do a little baby peck.
Aw.
When you love someone and you're passionate
about someone, when you're together,
it's, like, electric.
And I have that with Trevor.
I don't like you unhappy.
I hate seeing you that way. - Yeah.
You know?
It's scary how many people are plotting
how to make Maddi unhappy.
I'm sick of Brad specifically
because I lost you because of a lie.
So do you want to know what I did?
What's that.
I literally called the girl Sammie.
She was literally like,
"Brad and I, they were setting us up."
And I literally have the recording.
What?
Shut the up.
That's----ing nasty on Brad.
And this girl full blown had no problem being like,
yes. - Yeah.
Oof.
I will him up.
I will burn his sh-- to the ground.
He's a----ing liar, and he, like, plotted against us,
plotted against you.
But you know the truth.
I know the truth.
And I just don't think we need to reignite that fire,
you know? - I want to.
I think it'd be best if you just let him think he won.
And we'll get through whatever they throw at us.
Coming up...
Trevor called that girl, that Sammie girl.
There's a recording.
Good morning.
Morning.
We have a day ahead of us.
- Yeah, we do. - OK. Time to get up.
Even though it's only been two months with Troy,
it's long distance.
So every time we see each other, it's insanely intense.
Hello. - Oh, you look great.
Thank you.
I love your pheromones,
your natural pheromones.
It's primal.
It awakens something inside of me.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
- Like what? - My pussy.
When we're with each other, every night's dinner.
Every night is going out.
Every night's drinking.
Every night is having sex.
It feels like we're constantly on vacation mode,
but I want to experience life with him.
Us together, just doing, like, the mundane,
everyday activities.
I'm about to be wifey right now.
- OK. - OK?
What you got?
I'm about to make you a caprese salad.
Very nice.
And look, I even have these beautiful tomatoes
from the farmers market.
Very nice.
Can I help? - No, do not.
I can do that.
Hotel Mia.
I don't want to take the whole thing out.
Yeah.
I'm gonna circumcise this thing.
I just made that for you.
This looks great. Here.
Thank you.
I've never had this for breakfast.
But it's phenomenal.
So when are you coming to Charleston again,
for the amazing caprese salad?
- Two weeks. - OK.
So I'm gonna pick you up.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
We're gonna drive to Charlotte,
and then we're gonna vacation.
So I want to know, because vacation Mia
is a lot different than regular Mia--
- OK. - Outfit situation.
- Yep. - How...
Mia can I get?
- All the way. - All the way?
Yeah. Yeah.
Yes.
It's actually encouraged.
I will take as many pictures of as you want.
You'll be an Instagram boyfriend?
- I will. - I'm excited.
Nervous?
No. Are you nervous?
No.
So then what?
We're just gonna take it day by day.
We'll come down to Charleston every weekend if I have to.
That's crazy.
That's not sustainable for, like, the long term, though.
You're aware of that?
Yes.
I think we both are.
Once Troy leaves, it's weeks without hugging,
kissing, sex,
all of the things that are my love language.
It's hard.
Tell me what a perfect scenario looks like.
You move to Charleston.
I think there would have to be some dominoes
to fall at work,
but it's not off the table.
Dominoes have to fall, and you get promoted?
Yes.
How likely do you think that is?
I think I'll have a lot better of an idea
after our trip.
- OK. - But I feel good about it.
I wasn't ready to settle down before.
Something was always missing.
But Troy isn't missing anything.
You're so my type.
Um...
I want him to make Charleston his home.
That would be ideal.
I see me and you for a long time.
How long?
Forever.
♪ Whoa
- Bradley. - What's up, babes?
- How we doing? - I'm good. How are you?
Fabuloso.
- What's up, Will? - What's up, dude?
You left me alone for, like, what, eight weeks?
10 weeks.
And now you're about to leave again.
I feel like that was just, like--
Am I teasing you by just coming back for a few seconds?
William.
It's good to see you back behind the bar.
Yeah.
An important part of friendship
is that you forgive your friends.
But the problem is that Joe
never, ever, ever actually stops doing this sh--,
to the point where I don't know what to do anymore.
He says he's gonna be a better friend,
and he's just--he's not been a better friend.
The champ is here.
Is that--is it you?
- The one and only. - Is it really you?
I hate being in the middle of all these problems going on,
but connecting people is part of my job.
So I have to go into my Zen mode.
I'm at work. I'm in the groove...
All we need to set up now
is, like, the juices and the kits.
Making sure other people have the best time.
Can we have six spicy margs and six shots of tequila?
- Gotcha. - Clocking in.
- G-Lilly! - G-Lilly.
What up, babe?
Um, what do we have left?
I saw all the white cages put out.
- Yeah. - Do we need to put
the buckets out? - Yeah. Let me see.
We need buckets and kits.
Uh, we got two more sets I got to make.
Let me do it in these. - I'll do buckets.
What's going on?
Absolutely nothing.
All right, handle your business.
You know I will.
- Mads, are you OK? - Yeah, I'm good.
- Are you sure? - Yeah.
I'm working hard.
- Grace Lilly! - You're back.
I'm so happy.
That's awesome.
So, ladies, bachelorette party?
- Yeah. - There she is, yeah.
Hi. - Is it good?
I hope it's good. - Thank you, doll.
- Absolutely. - You're so cute.
You're so cute. I love you.
Hey, baby, can I get eight green tea shots?
- Eight green tea shots? - Yes, please. Right now.
Please.
Don't hurt yourself.
Don't you miss working with me?
I miss working with you.
Ah, God.
Do you want to go talk for a second?
Yeah, back there, back there.
What's up with you?
I...
received a bomb, and I feel like I've--
Wait. What happened?
I feel like I'm having a----ing mental breakdown.
It's OK.
I can't.
What happened?
Trevor called that girl,
that Sammie girl.
There's a recording.
I'll show you it.
I'm trusting you with this information.
One of my clients comes to me and is like,
"Trevor's texting her."
They made out at the bar.
We ended up kissing.
Kissing, kissing, kissing.
Hell, no.
Whoa.
I know Maddi more than anyone,
and I've never seen Maddi this upset before.
For this man to have that much hate in his heart for me
is so----ed up.
For this man to have that much hate in his heart for me,
I'm like, holy .
I-I'm hoping that Bradley would not
be the guy that would, like, connive,
like, some sort of plan to set you up.
I don't know if I believe that he did that.
Yeah, but when someone shows you exactly who they are,
believe it.
And he has shown me exactly who he is.
I can't really see Bradley, you know,
"Mwahaha,"
like, creating some, like, diabolical plan
with Sammie to, like, blow up Maddi
and Trevor's relationship.
You really think that Sammie lied,
and the kiss never happened? - Yes.
Brad set this up
because I hurt your reputation.
Like, I'm sorry.
I'm just speaking the----ing truth.
But now, you got a voice recording of Sammie
saying she didn't want to really do it.
So I don't know what to believe.
What has she got?
What, is Bradley giving her free fitness classes?
My blood is boiling.
I know you feel really hurt by this.
Yeah.
And I just, like--
I just need a second.
Yeah, you're good.
Well, you think this Sammie girl's a liar,
from the phone recordings?
She told me she lied.
Well, she told Trevor she lied.
I'm not a detective.
I'm no Sherlock Holmes here,
but it seems a little fishy.
She told me she lied.
Well, she told Trevor she lied.
Who do I trust more?
Bradley or Trevor,
the biggest cheater and liar in Charleston?
I'm gonna have to say Bradley.
Like, it sucks that, like, you're having
to deal with this at work.
It's hard to, like, hold it together because, like,
these people had a whole plan.
And they were plotting, and I just--
that's why I feel just, like, taken advantage of.
Maybe they did. I don't know.
I just think I need some space.
Time to clean myself the up.
Yeah. I'm gonna go back to work.
You'll be fine.
Just don't let your emotions get the best of you.
You got this. You're strong
So back to 10-year anniversary tomorrow.
I just need to know, did we work out
what we did with those dancers?
Yeah, they're bringing the hoop.
- Oh, great. - So there's both options.
OK. By the way,
I did not get a tattoo.
My son wants me to keep-- - I saw it earlier,
and I was like, I never--
No, it's not a tattoo. It's an Avenger.
I saw it over there, and I was like, you never know.
Come in.
Hello.
Hello, Miss Emerson.
- Come sit down. - Scoochy on in here.
How are you today?
- I am good. - Good.
So we're gonna get right into it.
I was talking to Chris.
I was like, did Emmy come in and check the pre-bookings?
He was like, even before Emmy was doing Maddi's job,
Emmy comes in early and checks everything.
And the champagne contest, he separately texted me
saying, you know, she's crushing it.
She's killing it.
Emmy sold a table for two bottles, $1,100.
Hee-hee.
So he had really great things to say about you--
I love that.
The other night I was in, yeah.
I know you've always been very clear
that you want Maddi's job.
Unfortunately, I am not giving you Maddi's job.
But what I am giving you is the AGM position,
assistant general manager,
which is actually Maddi's manager.
Wow.
So you will be managing Joe, Maddi,
and all the banquette.
You want me to be in charge of everyone?
You're essentially Chris's right-hand woman
at this point. - Wow.
Holy sh--.
I'm shocked. I'm very happy.
I mean, it's a bigger position than when I was asking for.
It would be coming to management meetings,
obviously. - Yup.
I honestly didn't take Emmy seriously
at all when I met her.
Even on her first shift, it was just like,
you just want to keep an eye on your boyfriend.
But Emmy's been impressive, like,
over the past eight months,
you know, like, showing up early,
wanting to learn things.
She became, like, exemplary.
We are going to have you start tomorrow.
Ooh.
But I would like you to keep it to yourself,
and we can announce it. - 100%.
One of the biggest challenges will be
going from working with your colleagues
as an equal to going above them and managing them.
The transition could be a little bit tricky
because, obviously, you're friends with Joe.
You're friends with all the girls.
I think, you know, they're going to be shocked.
- Yeah. - But I think
it is an amazing opportunity
for me to prove to you guys and to myself what I'm capable of.
And in order to do that, I'm gonna have to be the boss.
Coming up...
Let's make sure that no one messes up table numbers,
everything is fluid and beautiful.
Absolutely.
Ugh.
I gotta DJ tonight.
At Club Repub?
At Club Repub.
It's the 10-year anniversary, and it's, like, circus themed.
They're, like, going all out.
I'm GONNA be in, like,
a ringleader sexy circus outfit.
Are you whipping? I'm coming.
Ooh.
yeah.
Sex hair.
Big.
Ah. Ooh.
There's a lot of hairspray in my hair
for no particular reason.
I wanted to feel absolutely perfect for tonight,
so I had my favorite people come and help me.
Well, they're doing a great job.
Aw.
That's the dress I'm wearing tonight.
- This one? - Yes.
Model it for us.
Mia actually gave me that dress, which is great.
It's a beautiful color with your eyes, Will.
I know. With mine?
- Mm-hmm. - Yeah.
It really brings your eyes out.
A golden dress for the golden girl, the big promotion.
I love it.
It's a big----ing deal.
It's crazy how much I've grown up that
they literally just, like, noticed it.
A year ago, I was----ing around, doing VIP,
you know, just, like, having fun.
And now, I'm the assistant manager of Republic,
and my boyfriend is gonna be a lawyer.
I think Emmy's promotion is, like, the hottest thing
that Emmy's ever done.
And it might be good for us because if I'm really busy,
and she's really busy, there isn't free time
where we're sitting around and missing each other.
All right, how do I look?
You look----ing gorgeous.
- Ahh! - Ahh!
There's a new sheriff in town.

Gypsy star.
Gypsy queen.
I look like Maddi.
I need a tarot card reading from you.
Because I can do it. Mwah.
I got you, girl - You promise me?
You'll save me one?
I got you.
Ta-da.
What up?
I was gonna say, my Frenchman.
Are you a mime or a Frenchman?
I don't know what that means.
Still missing.
Hello, Em.
Why are you not in uniform?
Go get your booty out like the rest of us.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
Circus du Leva.
What's the crack in Iraq? He's back.
I look like a----ing rock star, pal.
Yeah, you do.
Yeah, that's the vibe you're giving.
All right, all right, time out.
In all seriousness, let me give you the rundown
of how tonight is going to work.
Obviously, tons of VIPs to walk you through the front door.
We have a guest list.
If you're not on the guest list,
you're not gonna get in.
We've got a guy on stilts.
That's Grace's booth.
She is gonna be tarot card reading;
stars, moons, that whole thing.
We've got Dom that will be pouring all night
for the VIPs.
Maddi behind the DJ booth.
We have 30 minutes till doors,
so do what you need to do now.
Grab a couple of these with me.
I'm missing some glasses over here.
I don't really want anything from Brad.
I already have my proof.
Why confront the demon?
I don't need to talk to you again.
And if you're gonna talk to me again,
you owe me an apology.
You're done.
Yeah, like, three.
It feels good to be celebrating
the 10th year of this business.
This is my fourth year at Republic Garden Lounge,
and I love it, and I have a passion for this company.
It's where Joey Bottles was created.
Wait, why is she wearing that?
Emmy, why are you wearing that dress?
Do not ask me why I'm wearing a different outfit.
OK. Hello, hello, hello.
Hammer.
I'm trying to get all the staff over here.
Everybody, listen up.
Happy 10 years to all of you.
Yeah.
Yeah, we're super excited for tonight.
We have, like, a big thing going on.
Big announcement.
Um...
We're going to introduce you guys to the new AGM,
assistant general manager,
which will be the right-hand man or woman to Chris.
Um...
And she's arrived on time.
It's Emmy.
Congratulations.
Whoo.
yeah.
Emmy filled in two shifts for Maddi while she was DJing.
And suddenly, she gets this big promotion?
L-O-----ing-L.
I guess I'm the bitch that runs this bitch now.
So at the end of the day, there's me and Lamar,
there's Leah, there's Chris,
and then there's Emmy.
We're really proud of Emmy.
So is she over Joe?
If Chris is not present, this is your manager.
And underneath Emmy, we have Maddi and Joe.
I think she's gonna be a great team player.
I think we're gonna have an awesome 10-year anniversary.
Happy 10. - Yeah, happy 10.
All right, let's get in our spots.
Yeah, everybody get in their spots.
Maddi, hit the music.
Hey, congrats, girl.
Aw, thank you.
I like it, but drunk people are gonna be like--
There's no way Emmy----ing deserves it.
She has no idea
what an assistant general manager does.
I will always be the bitch that runs the bitch.
I don't care what your title is.
Let's have a night, lads.
- Boys. - Hey, what's up, boss?
What's up? - How you doing?
Yeah, how you like that, Joe?
I'm happy for you,
but you're not my boss. - Are you sure?
Do you think this is funny?
Oh, no. I'm kidding.
Joe, do you have the right guest list?
What do you mean?
I just want to make sure you have the right guest list.
There's no other guest list.
This is the only one.
Just with all the hosts, Joe--
I know you already know this, I'm just reiterating--
can you just please make sure that
no one messes up table numbers,
everything is fluid and beautiful?
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Sarah, you look beautiful, babe.
You look beautiful.
You look great.
Imagine, like, the girl that you trained
trying to take your job and be doing your job
that you've been doing for four years.
Yeah, we look good.
yeah.
She's not gonna order me around. I'm sorry.
Well, I mean, she is AGM.
She's been busting her ass. - That's true.
Leva felt like she deserved it.
She is our best saleswoman.
So why not reward that?
You got bumped up.
She should get bumped up.
Yeah.
Aw, Joe, are you mad?
Hey, she earned it.
And to be honest, your loss.
I have faith that it will be good.
Like, if you do a good job, you deserve to get promoted.
- That's a big responsibility. - Right?
But I better get promoted.
It was the wrong promotion, I think.
Hey, I got 'em. I got 'em.
Thanks, baby.
- How are you feeling? - I feel great.
Good.
I think I'm gonna take the VIP service to the back
to get the trays of food
and hand out for the guests. - Perfect.
Perfect.
- So exciting! - Awesome.
The doors are opening.
We're good?
Whoo-wee!
Let's go!
- Hello. Welcome in. - Hello.
- How are you? - Good, thanks.
Good to see you.
Hello.
How are you?
Venita, thank you for blessing us.
I appreciate it.
Have the ultra VIP wristband for you.
So fashionable.
Yeah, am I? I don't know.
No?
Yeah.
You're good.
Thank you, baby.
I love you.
It's almost, like, surreal and a little bit wild
to think that we're coming on our 10-year anniversary.
We didn't know if we'd make it, but we did it.
And now, I don't think there's a person in Charleston
that can say they didn't have, like, some story at Republic.
- Hi. - Hey, man. how's it going?
We're here for the party.
You look sexual.
Wow, look at that ass.
We're dancing.
I see a really beautiful girl.
You want me to go get her?
Yeah, yeah, go get her.
Bring her here.
And that's predominantly why you'll find Lamar and I
at the corner of a bar or at the front
because people want to tell us all these stories,
which we love.
Yo, what the ?
She comes in, never has a managerial experience--
we do--and then comes in to AGM.
Yeah.
No, listen, being a manager--
I just don't like how she pranced in
with her----ing yellow dress on, like,
"I'm your boss now." Yeah,----ing right.
You're not my----ing boss.
His ego is so----ing.
She can't be my boss. I'm sorry.
Yeah, I know.
Like, we got her the job here.
Yeah, but you don't want to be a manager.
Good luck with that.
Yeah, good luck with your ski trips
and visiting Will in law school, huh?
No, if anything, I'm, like, good for her.
I'd rather be a DJ, and Joey Bottles
than being an assistant to the general manager.
Yeah.
Joe Bradley?
The audacity. The----ing audacity.
Audacity.
Insubordination is a fireable offense.
Joe, like, if this opportunity came to you,
I would support you.
I would have your back.
We need support.
We need to be a family.
Joe's being a hot mess.
But Joe Bradley--
Yeah, that's a surprise.
What a piece of sh--.
It's funny how she walks in like this.
I'm your boss now. I'm like, yeah,----ing right.
Yeah, no. It's laughable.
Seriously, [bleep].
Like, that's hilarious.
I'm here to set an example,
and you need to respect it and follow it
or else it's gonna be a big problem.
You're not my----ing boss.
LOL, Joe.
He's gonna learn real quick
how this is gonna work.
Next time, on the season finale
of "Southern Hospitality"...
Joe said uyou are going to break up
as soon as he goes to law school.
What a piece of sh--.
I called her while you guys were in Miami.
How are you?
Oh, Brad.
You've been talking sh-- about us.
That is the biggest stab in the heart to me.
You get stabbed in the heart.
You need to stay the away from my boyfriend.
- Maddi, Maddi. - Sit down.
Maddi, Maddi, Maddi, Maddi.
He's a----ing liar.
You're----ing trash.
