(♪)
(gasps, laughing)
- Look at you. You look amazing!
- Oh! Thanks to you. For the very best me.
(laughing) - Remember, the best you
has always been...
(both): Within!
- And you just bring it out.
- Aw! (chuckling)
Well, being your best
is all about putting the work into your insides,
so that you can let that shine on your outsides!
- Ugh. Now, I just have to rock this interview.
- You remember your tools.
Any time you have a single doubt,
you remember what you're capable of.
Yeah? And you will rock this interview.
I know it, because you've put in the work.
- Ah! We've put in the work.
- You're doing great, I'm so proud of you.
- I'm gonna miss you. - I'm gonna miss you too.
(laughing) But remember, I'm your friend!
You can call me any time.
- Thank you so much.
- Now, go out there and shine.
(chuckles)
(both): Bye!
- And another one complete.
- Well, not quite.
- Well, you're gonna need a double shot of espresso
when I show you today's schedule.
So, at noon, we've got that follow-up meeting
with that tech wiz kid.
You know, the one who needs to seem more approachable,
not infinitely smarter than everybody else.
- Yes! - Oh! And tomorrow,
you've got your first of hopefully many
segments at Wake-Up World.
(gasps) You're gonna be great!
- Well, I don't know, I haven't been on TV in forever!
Gosh, to get a regular segment on Wake-Up,
that would just skyrocket our business to the next level!
I gotta crush this.
Knowing you, consider it crushed.
(laughing) Now, let's get you that coffee.
- Bless.
(rhythmic music)
- Okay. Yeah, thank you.
- That was Wake-Up World.
Your prep meeting today got cancelled.
Apparently, Clive Baxter,
the sexy soccer player turned TV host,
likes to just leave it all out on the field.
- Well, I guess when you're an international sports star,
you can afford to ruffle a few feathers.
Not to mention his excessive use of sports analogies.
- I don't know, I kind of like this whole feisty thing
that he's got going on.
No, I think it is a much-needed
new flair for Wake-Up. - From what I've heard,
he's not exactly a home run.
- Yeah, wrong sport, but I see you.
Hang on.
(keyboard clicking)
So, maybe when you're staring into those baby blues,
you will change your tune.
- Oh, pump the brakes. (laughing)
(phone rings)
Hey, Ali, how are you?
No way! Congratulations.
She got the job!
Yes, we will celebrate.
We'll set it up. Okay. Bye.
Wow. Well,
hey, another job complete.
- Nice!
(upbeat music)
(sighs) - I'm just hoping
these moving boxes were a decoy
and that you changed your mind.
- I know.
I can't believe I'm moving out of here before you are.
Hey, hun, help me with this?
- Aw! Look at you two!
- Hey, you want to meet up for dinner
after we drop these at the new place?
- Oh, no, I think I've been your permanent third wheel
for far too long.
- No, don't be silly.
Felix was gonna ask Todd from the office to come too.
- Oh. Is that how it works now, huh?
You two are teaming up now to set me up?
- No, just trying to return the favour
of you and YVB helping me
become a guy with this kind of gal on his arm.
- Aw! - No, it's okay.
Actually, I've got early dinner plans with my mom.
Apparently, she's got a new pitch to discuss.
- Well, let's hope it goes better than the last.
(car engine starts)
- Well, I do appreciate that you got
all of the important stuff out of the way,
but obviously it's killing you inside, I can tell,
so what's your new pitch?
- Hey, I can be patient and I can read people too.
- I am your daughter, you don't need to read me.
- My office identified your company as a top target.
I didn't even play up
the mother and daughter dream scenario.
So, it's all legit based on your success.
I'm really just the messenger here.
- Mom, we went over this before.
- The Angel investment is an offer that any business
in your position would die for.
And with you being back on TV, now is the time to strike.
- I'm not back on TV, Mom. I'm doing a single segment.
And as I clearly stated before, and I will say it again,
I need to do this on my own.
- Yes, we take majority ownership,
but you still call the shots.
- How is that maj... - Aren't you Bratty Becky
from "Little Sister"?
- Uh, yeah. I mean...
I mean, actually, I started off as Brave Becky
and then, during season 4,
we had these new producers come in
and they completely flipped the storyline.
That's when I became...
Uh, anyway, never mind. Yes, yes, I am...
I'm Bratty Becky! (laughing)
- Oh, uh, what did Brave Becky used to say?
- Do you remember, Mom? - Yes.
- Brave Becky used to say,
"When things are going down, be brave..."
(all): And turn them around!
(laughing) - You were so amazing!
Can I grab a pic?
- Yeah, of course! - Sure.
- Ready? - Yeah!
- Okay. Cheese!
- Cheese. (shutter clicks)
Oh, that's nice.
- Thank you. - Nice to meet you.
- Thank you, thank you!
- As I was about to say, our first plan of attack
would be to focus on your celebrity past.
Child sitcom star to successful entrepreneur.
- Mom, I'm trying to focus on bringing
what I have to the table as Rebecca.
Not as Bratty Becky.
- And look at you, you were so cute,
positive, uplifting.
- It's not the approach that I don't like, it's...
The lines between Mom and manager were blurred.
And I just don't want to go back there again.
- But this is different. - How?
Mom...
I appreciate that you're trying to help me,
but this is really important for me to do this on my own.
I need that.
Please.
- So, you're really not seeing anyone?
I mean, there must be someone.
- Mom.
- Sorry.
(upbeat music)
- Oh, uh...
- Excuse me, Mr. Baxter, I hate to bother you...
- You must not hate it that much.
I'm kidding! Kind of, what's up?
- Uh, my son is a huge fan and it's his birthday Saturday.
I was hoping maybe you could sign his jersey?
- Oh, I would love to...
But it's not up to me.
Yeah, my manager handles all my memorabilia requests.
- Oh, it's just for a seven-year-old kid.
- Sorry, pal.
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck...
- Uh, excuse me!
- A-E-I-O-U.
- Excuse me! - Unique, New York.
Excuse me! Hi!
Excuse me, hi, Clive.
- Huh? - Clive Baxter.
- Yeah? - Hi!
I hear that preparation is not really your thing,
but I think preparation is the key to success.
- I don't.
- Okay, yeah!
Well, if you want to go over anything
with our segment, I'm here to flesh out any questions.
I'm here to help.
- Yeah, we're just gonna let it fly when the camera's on.
Just like, boom, boom, boom. You know?
That's how I roll. Alright?
I can't believe it's really you, though!
Bratty Becky!
All grown up.
- Yeah. I ditched the braces and got rid of my pigtails.
- Yeah. - So, I'm Rebecca now.
- Rebecca. - Rebecca Cole.
- Mm-hmm. Is it okay if I call you Becky?
- Uh, no. It's not 1999 anymore,
so let's just go with Rebecca.
- I'll see you out there, Becky.
- Oh, yeah...
Just... Whoa, one more thing, slick!
That was a really classy move that you made there
with the kid's jersey.
- Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah.
That's... that's kind of adorable, actually.
You really think that jersey was for his kid?
No, no, that guy was gonna go sell the jersey on the internet
for a quick 500 bucks. Oldest trick in the book.
- Is it not tiring to go through life making assumptions
about people in the worst way?
- It's called assumptions based on previous
circumstances and facts.
- I'm so sorry that this is the story
you've created for yourself.
See, I choose to see the best in others.
- Which I think will get you absolutely nowhere.
You've spent far too much time in the TV world
and not enough time in the real world, sweetie.
(laughs)
- Maybe you have just
been kicked in the head too many times!
- Ooh!
Okay, you know what? - What?
- Forget Bratty Becky. I'm gonna go with Rude Rebecca.
- I'm sorry. I'll see you on set.
- Like I suggested in the first place.
Later.
(crowd cheering)
- We are very excited today,
because we have popular image consultant
and all-around talented gal, Rebecca Cole.
(applause)
(laughing) - Hi! Hi, how are you?
- Good. A few weeks ago,
we gave her a guest from our audience
to work her magic on.
Now, he is back with us today.
(applause)
Roy! You look like a new man.
- I feel like a brand new version of myself.
Or the very best version of myself.
(applause) - Roy wanted to go
from being the nice guy
to being the guy that his female friends
would be more interested in.
(crowd): Aw! - Buddy...
I could've told you how to do that in a couple of minutes.
- Well, we wouldn't want to put him through that,
now would we? (crowd): Ooh!
Roy's primary attainable goal was to set his sights
on a particular female.
And by integrating his newly discovered self
with his best version, he wanted to ask her out.
- So... Roy, who is she?
A crush, a coworker?
(laughs) - Kind of.
(crowd): Woo!
(clears throat)
- Rebecca, through this process,
I've become someone I never thought possible.
Would you go on a date with me?
(applause)
- Uh...
What about Julie from the gym?
- I'm just being true to myself.
- Uh... I'm sure that anyone from the audience
would want to go on a date with you.
(applause) - But do you have a boyfriend?
- No, I don't.
I think that the best version of myself currently
is to remain single.
I'm so sorry, Roy.
- You spend weeks building this poor guy up
only to chop him down in one fell swoop?
I mean, come on.
- Well, Roy's clarity, albeit surprising,
is actually something we can build on.
(applause)
- Roy, there must be someone else?
- Uh, I think he's being pretty clear.
I think you should ask her one more time.
- I think it's pretty clear that you assume things
and think you know everything.
- Alright, well you know, I would rather go after
what I want than to... be a chump.
(crowd): Oh! (laughs nervously)
(crowd booing)
- Looks like our audience disagrees.
My charming but oh so opinionated cohost.
- Okay, you know what?
You gotta practise what you preach, isn't that right?
That's what this is all about, so...
You all have a great morning.
I'm gonna go for a jog.
(chuckles)
- Looks like we'll be right back.
(applause)
Clive.
(sighs)
I was the only one to take a chance on you
after your Solar Sports fiasco.
We promised you your own show,
because you would have a way with viewers,
but you're losing them!
- Let's calm down, okay?
Look, we've discussed this before.
Wake-Up is my grooming ground.
When All Clive Live is a massive hit,
we'll never remember today's little malfunction.
- That's what I'm telling you.
There is no All Clive Live.
If this continues, there's no Clive.
You said you would tone it down after last month's warning.
- But have you checked your phone?
Because my grand exit has gone massively viral,
so you're welcome. - Unfortunately,
we don't make money on likes and views.
We make money on ads.
I begged the network to let me talk to you
and get you help. - Oh, you mean like a shrink?
Thank you, no. I will walk.
- No. We need to repair the damage.
Change your image.
I want you to work with Rebecca. (scoffs)
- Becky? - Yeah.
- Yeah, because she's a real hot hire after today's outing.
- The audience loved her, so did the network.
And I lied, they actually think I'm firing you right now.
- Oh, man. - So, if you agree to this,
I can spin it into a short suspension
and buy us some time. - She's just so fluffy!
And seemingly ineffective.
- We all have our off days.
Look. I know how hard you've worked
to succeed in this field. You're right.
I do think your show will be a massive hit.
We just need to...
tweak you a bit to fit into what we need from you.
Can you do that?
If not, I'm sorry, I'm gonna have to end it all now.
- No, no, no. Clive Baxter does not get fired.
Okay? Clive Baxter walks on his own accord,
which he's not gonna do today, just to be clear,
he's not. Clive Baxter...
will see a guru. I will see a guru.
- Yeah, I think you should do that.
And I would start with an apology when you do.
I heard her say she's headed
to the coffee shop on the corner.
Now, I need to figure out how to sell your journey
of being better to the network. Good luck.
Okay... - We got this.
It's gonna be fine, I'll smooth it over.
(birds chirping)
- They are never gonna have me on again.
I can't believe I misread Roy so badly!
- Listen, I have to get going, but I will follow up
with Margaret and I'll feel her out.
- Don't even bother.
This is a definite "We'll call you,
do not call us" situation.
- Listen, everything will be fine. Trust me.
I will see you in a few.
- I'll be here, licking my wounds.
- We'll chat soon.
(phone rings)
- No, not doing it. Not today, Mom.
What... What are you doing here?
- Okay, let's just get this over with.
I need you to help me.
- Oh, no hello? Or better yet,
no "I'm so sorry"? - We don't have time
for any of that, alright? - I did my research
and I learned that you're... usually pretty good.
- Huh.
Well, I usually don't work with grumpy hosts
that made things worse.
- I need you to do your thing with me.
Whatever it is that you typically do.
- Well, since you asked me so nicely.
- Can you just agree? That way, I can call Margaret
and they can all relax over there.
- Wait, Margaret?
Margaret put you up to this?
You mean, she doesn't think I'm a total failure?
- No, it was her idea.
Lucky for you, I chose the right day
to see your total failure
and raise you out of career suicide.
- Well, then...
Do you even want to work with me?
Or better yet, I should ask you,
do you even want to work on yourself?
- If it means I get to keep my job, then yeah, sure.
- Typical. - What?
- Enjoy the cheesecake.
- Come on, what did I say?
What... I do, I do, I do, seriously.
- No, you don't.
- Rebecca, Rebecca, yes, I do. I do.
- Oh, really? Why?
- Because this show is the first time I've felt like I belong
to something since being on a team.
It's not easy, retiring from something you've done
since you were four years old.
And what made you successful in that arena
doesn't always translate to post-pro life.
- I get that.
- I've been promised my own show this summer.
I can't lose that, because one thing
that never changes for me is the refusal to lose.
- Now, that! That's the first step.
It's figuring out the why.
- I'm already pretty good at this.
- But I'm gonna have to ask something of you
that I feel like might be a massive feat.
- Come on, I've already given you a lot today.
- I need an apology.
And I'm not talking something followed by an "and"
or an "if" or a "but" or a "because",
I need an unconditional apology.
Go ahead.
- I... am...
- Mm-hmm? - Sorry. I'm sorry.
- Perfect. - Happy?
- Yeah. Apology accepted.
- Okay. - I'll be in touch.
(sighs) - This will be fun.
- Yes, Margaret, thank you so much for the second chance.
Yes, I will keep you updated. Thanks.
(beep!)
Well, it's official!
- What does that mean?
- I've gotta get Clive back on the air
and I've gotta repair his tarnished image.
My goodness. She wants me to make him a priority.
- Is the network paying this like we're their only priority?
- Yeah. So, you're gonna have to take care
of the rest of the clients, okay?
Meanwhile, I need a crash course on Mr. Clive Baxter.
- Oh... I got you.
- Okay, he is a Baxter banger.
It's what they call Clive's super fans.
- What? They have a name for them?
- Whoa, you don't understand what he's accomplished.
As an American, he transformed the Premiership League.
He is a global star.
Just... not so much here, unless you are a soccer fan.
- Well, I mean, I knew that he was a former pro...
- He's huge. He can't walk outside overseas.
Which is why he came back to the States
to start his TV career.
Elise isn't too happy about it.
- Who's Elise?
- Elise. Elise Hendrix.
His long-time on-again and off-again relationship.
- Oh.
- His career was never the same after her,
but now, they're engaged.
- She's gorgeous.
- And quite a handful, I hear.
- Well, you know what? They're right for each other.
I don't know anyone who could stand this guy long enough
to fall in love with him, let alone be married to him.
- He's pretty private about their relationship.
I guess she refuses to live in the States.
- Interesting.
He does not come across as an engaged type.
Just saying. (chuckles)
Well, I got to get to work.
I've got a feeling this global star
is going to be quite the challenge.
(birds chirping)
(soft music)
(utensils clinking)
- Hi. Hope you came hungry.
- Yeah. - Come in, come in.
I got the last of the sauce simmering,
got a bird crisping,
got a flourless chocolate cake doing whatever
flourless chocolate cakes do, it looks really good.
- You cook?
Well, that just nixed my primary stereotype about you.
- Yeah, well, I've never been able
to cruise down the corner café, so I became a culinary savant.
Plus, it wouldn't look great if my fiancée woke up
to pictures of me and my...
image consultant in the tabloids.
- Oh, you mean that me being here right now
in your secluded, incredibly gorgeous house is better?
- Eh. (laughs)
- I was thinking that maybe we would get straight to work.
- Yeah, yeah, we will, we just got to fuel up first.
Do you want to hop on salad duty?
- Salads are my specialty.
- Yeah, I've got salt and pepper for you.
- Okay, what do we got here?
(bird cawing)
That was a great lunch, thank you.
- You're welcome.
- It's nice to see you on your own battleground.
Albeit a little removed from civilization.
- Yeah, well, you gotta watch out for any bogies
flying overhead or the unexpected booby traps.
- You do realize that's not
the right way to walk through life, right?
It's exhausting.
My first assessment of you.
You have fallen victim to your own persona.
You feel the need to be what everybody perceives you to be.
- Or that's just my personality.
- Hmm, no, I don't think so.
Trust me, and this took years for me to figure out,
but it's so much easier to get through life
when you have a sense of humour and you can laugh at yourself
or you can laugh at your persona, in this case.
- Okay, I don't know if you can tell,
but I'm not really a big...
joke-around kind of guy.
- It's not like you need a 30-minute set or anything.
You just have to be the kind of guy that can laugh at the fact
that he can't set his own dinner table.
- What? - No offence.
Or you can show the audience the real you.
The one that just...
revels in the intricate details of his apricot sage sauce.
Which was dynamite, by the way.
- Thank you, you know, it was the pinch
of mustard seed that makes it pop.
- See? That was real!
Come on, stand up! - Wait, wait, what are we doing?
(laughs) - This is going to be
our first exercise. - Ugh...
- Okay, we're gonna learn to let things go.
Start to shake. Shake, shake! - You want me to do that?
- Shake, shake, shake! Woo!
- Are you okay? You alright?
- I'm fine! Your turn. - I'm gonna get... No, no.
- Go! Really? - Not doing that.
- Okay, maybe it's too advanced. - Too advanced.
- Let's start with something more traditional.
- That sounds good. - Um...
- Great, I can't wait for this.
- Ha! - Oh...
- This is going to be your journal.
Journal entries are vital to us
being able to accomplish our goals in life.
- Okay, so you just want me to write about my day?
I can do that. - No, no, no!
I have an assignment for you.
Your first assignment is to write three things
that shaped you as a man, and how you might change them.
- No, I don't do this mushy stuff, okay?
I'm very happy with who I am,
I don't need a full transformation,
I just need you to help me get better at my job.
- I can't help someone who thinks they're perfect.
Look, you let me know when you're ready.
You call me then.
(sighs) If you still have a job to save.
- Come on, Rebecca, seriously?
- Oh, and my second assessment of you, by the way,
you're not perfect!
(Rebecca chuckles)
(sighs)
(phone buzzes, chimes)
- Oh, this isn't good.
(phone chimes)
(sighs)
- Please try again. If you can reach him,
he's a ratings gold mine.
- Well, I can't help someone
who doesn't want to embrace the work.
As big of an opportunity as this may seem, I just...
I wish I could overlook it.
- What if I gave you a regular segment on Wake-Up?
- That would be amazing!
- If you get Clive to right the ship,
I'll make that happen.
- Oh, I'd be lying if I didn't say
that the challenge of working with Clive would be intriguing.
Yeah, I do see potential.
- I do too! For both of you.
- I might have to take his ego down
a few notches to make it work.
- Do what you have to do. You got this.
Good news! Rebecca's agreed to give you another shot.
(sighs)
- Is this where I humbly swallow my pride
and express my gratitude?
- Yes, that would be what's best.
- How did you even get her to come on board?
- In exchange for a regular segment.
- Wait, what?
- The network loved her and how she navigated
the turbulence of her first appearance.
- By crash-landing? It was a disaster.
Margaret, this doesn't make sense.
I get all the blame and she gets her own segment?
- Just agree and we can leave this all behind us.
- Do I have a choice?
- No, not unless you want
your mini vacay to become permanent.
- Fine.
(upbeat music)
Okay, so now that we both know that I'm your meal ticket
to bigger and better things,
what do we need to do to give them what they want
so we can both just get what we need?
- Oh no, if you think I'm just gonna mail this in,
you obviously don't know me very well.
- Okay, we'll put on a good show, but come on!
This is...
- You are my utmost priority.
You better be prepared to work hard.
- You're welcome, by the way, for your career advancement.
(scoffs) - I believe that good things
come to people who work tirelessly on a goal.
- Sure. Well, I'll just be sitting here
whenever you want to say thank you.
I'm glad you brought this, by the way.
I mean, my head is always much clearer
whenever my feet are on the ball.
- Oh, well, you're welcome.
I believe it was you who said that you can't become
a professional athlete without having
a burning desire to succeed, right?
That was you, wasn't it?
Let's use that.
I also think that as a professional,
you should learn to give back.
See that kid over there?
His name is Quinn. He lives in the neighbourhood.
And his dad wants him to be good enough
to play with the rest of the kids. Look at him.
I said, "You know what? I've got just the coach for you
to put him back on track."
- Rebecca, I'm a professional athlete.
I'm not gonna go coach a bunch of kids.
I mean, I hold two single-season records in the Euro League.
- Sounds like you're qualified to me.
(sighs) Go on.
- Can I at leat coach the less horrible ones?
- No. No.
In fact, I do believe that failure
is a key ingredient to growth.
- Hmm. Okay. Okay, alright.
They're kids, I got this, I got this.
I'm great with kids. I love kids.
Hey, you're doing it all wrong! Come on!
(upbeat music)
Okay, let's start by dribbling it.
- How? - How? You just...
move the ball between the feet, bud.
- I don't get it.
- You just do it, it's not that hard.
- Well, I think it's hard.
(sighs)
- It's because you're not very good.
Or athletic.
Okay.
Alright, look, come here. Come here, kid.
I wasn't very good when I was your age either,
but I practised nonstop and it all became second nature.
- My dad says you're famous?
(chuckles) - You must not watch
a lot of soccer.
- He just said Rebecca's friend was pretty good.
- Wait, he said, "pretty good"?
- I don't watch much soccer,
I just play it 'cause I think it's really fun.
- Yeah, it is fun, isn't it? - Yeah.
- Alright, look. Let's do it one more time.
I want you to hit the ball with the inside of your foot
and before you strike it, envision the ball
going where you want it to go.
Okay? - Okay.
(laughs) - Yes! That's it!
That's the one to end on, good job.
(laughs)
(chuckles)
- Can you come play with the group?
They play on Thursdays.
Maybe if you come, they'll let me play.
- Oh...
- I think that's a great idea.
- I'll practise really hard.
- Yeah, okay. That sounds good.
- Wow.
It's really great to see him smiling again.
Can I buy you a drink to say thanks?
- Uh, you know, it's a really busy week at work,
but maybe another time.
- Gotcha. - Yeah.
- Well, thank you. - Totally.
- And thank you. - Of course.
- Yeah? I did good!
That's giving back. That kid was pumped up!
- I know, but you really should have let him say thanks to you.
- I don't really do new friends, Rebecca. It's just...
- Duncan is a great guy.
It would be good for you.
- All that guy wants to do is brag to his buddies
that he bought Clive Baxter a beer.
That's how that goes down.
- Duncan is a single father.
His wife passed away last year.
(sighs)
- You know what I really loved about playing soccer?
I got to affect people with what I did on the pitch,
not who I am as a person.
I've been a soccer player my whole life and now,
all of a sudden, you know, I have to be a person,
a whole person!
- I do what I do so I can affect people's lives positively.
I will send you his number.
Just in case you have a change of heart.
And I'll be in touch with the next things
that I've got on my list, so just...
Think about it. - I don't doubt that.
- Alright.
Good work!
(sighs)
(car whooshing by)
(door opens)
(door closes)
- Gillian told me you left the office
because you needed to think.
- It's nice to see you still come here.
- Hey, Mom.
Charlie gave me the code to come in.
I think he was sick of me constantly asking.
- Ah, benefits of being the pride and joy
of the theatre, I guess.
- You know, the sound stages and the studios,
they never gave me the same feeling.
This...
This is where I was happiest.
Here, I was a kid.
I had fun, Mom.
- Have you been ignoring my calls?
- No. No, I'm occupied with my new client, Mom.
- I know, I would have loved to have heard it from you.
Gillian told me. - Oh.
So, that's why you're here, huh?
- I mean, this is huge! A regular segment?
It sounds like this football star is exactly what you needed.
- He's a soccer star, Mom.
- Football is an international sport.
That's what they call it globally.
And that's how you need to start thinking.
I mean, he could literally take YVB global.
You know what? I'm going to put you in touch
with my London office right away.
- No, Mom! The Audrey train is just chugging along
at full speed ahead.
(scoffs) - You need to recognize
opportunity and strike!
- I'm not gonna use my clients like that, Mom.
Especially Clive.
He's sensitive, to say the least.
To trusting others.
- It's only business. This is how the world works.
- Yes, exactly. And I ask again
for you to please trust me to run my own business.
- Okay.
You know, I caught a show.
He does have a sparkle.
- You know, his ego kind of ruins that sparkle.
- Oh. - He's engaged, too.
I think he takes life way too seriously.
That's it! Oh!
He needs to have fun!
He needs to act like a kid again.
(laughs)
Thanks, Mom.
(light music)
(birds chirping)
- Okay, you said to meet you at the park.
Now what?
At least there aren't any kids here this time.
I don't know if you were trying to torture me
or help me earlier. - Hey, kids are valuable
learning tools.
- Yeah, and annoying.
- Ta-da! (laughs)
Hey, we were all kids once.
And I bet you that little Clive was carefree
and open to anything.
- Little Clive was practising his ball-handling skills
six hours a day.
- Well, more the reason for big Clive
to let loose and have some good old-fashioned fun!
Tag! - Okay, okay,
I don't know if you heard,
but fun is not really my speed.
It's not really an emotion that I need to feel.
- I don't believe you!
First around the jungle gym and down the slide wins!
- You got a massive head start!
(upbeat music)
(laughing)
(sighs)
I don't know, I think that was too close to call.
- Says the clear loser!
- Just used to winning. I don't know what to say.
- Maybe you just met your match.
- Ha, maybe so. (chuckling)
What? - That.
You should that more often.
- I do this plenty.
- Oh, well. You remember that feeling, okay?
(imitates buzzing) - Got it.
- Okay, this next assignment might not be as fun.
Just like when we were kids. We all have homework.
- Do you ever just relax?
- Hmm... No. - Okay.
- The network is paying me a pretty penny to annoy you.
- Ah... - Is it working yet?
- Mm-hmm. - Check your phone.
(phone chimes) Take a look.
- "Do you find yourself
repeating patterns of behaviour?"
- Yes. - "Are you a repeat offender?"
- Yes! - Really?
- Journal entry. This is gonna be good for you.
- Journal entry. Okay, alright. Like, writing?
- Yes! - I gotta write this?
- Yes, yes.
(boat horn blows)
- Honey, I know you wanted to give the whole TV thing a go,
but maybe this is just a sign.
- Well, we'll see if any of this is working
once I get in front of a live audience again.
- You're a footballer.
(sighs) - Please, I was a footballer.
I'm not anymore. - You can still play.
What about that new league that's starting up?
I mean, it's not the Premiership,
but it sounds solid.
- Ronnie and the team have already gauged the interest.
- You'd be perfect.
(sighs)
- Thanks.
It's built on a bunch of washed-up players
who can't hang it up yet.
- That's not what I meant.
I just want to see you happy.
Come home. Our life is here.
- Your life is there.
The one that you refused to leave.
- 'Cause I'm waiting for this bleating interest
of yours to pass.
- I don't know.
I think I can be really good at this if I commit.
- Well, then can you at least visit?
- I am on shaky ground! Why don't you come here?
- You know I can't fly that long.
- Well, then sounds to me like it's on you to understand.
- I just miss you.
Clive. I said, I miss you.
- I do too.
Have fun tonight, okay? See you.
(beep! beep!)
(phone rings) - Okay. One sec, oh, oh!
Hey, hey! Uh, Clive.
- Hey, you busy?
- Uh... Kind of.
- Okay, look, I'm working on my next assignment,
right now I'm on a run and I'm just getting
more frustrated and winded.
You think you can come over? - Uh...
Uh... - Go!
- Yeah, uh, sure! - Give me this.
- Okay, perfect. Uh... Just come in,
because this next interval might take me out.
- Okay, yeah.
(beep!)
(sighs)
Oh my gosh. I am so sorry,
I will come straight back here, right after.
- No offence, but I think we can do without your muscle.
- Oh God, I can't go looking like this.
- Why not? He's just a client, right?
- Oh, that face does not say he is just a client.
- He is just a client.
Hmm! - Hmm.
- Mm-hmm!
- He's not just a client. - She's smitten.
(laughs)
- Okay. - Okay, here we go.
(birds chirping)
- Hey. - Hey.
- This is a cute look.
- Well, you saved me from moving duties, I owe you.
- Okay, look, this next assignment
is really starting to... - Oh, wow. Are you trying
to open up a shoe store? - Oh...
Yeah, it's ridiculous. My sponsor sends me all these.
It's like, how many pairs of shoes can a guy wear?
I would give them to charity, but I don't really know
if they're gonna go to the right place, so...
- You know what?
Let's scratch the first exercise.
Let's use this as an opportunity to build your trust. Hmm?
Each box represents
something from your past
that has led you to expect the worst in people.
Building a wall.
Let's start with this one.
- Uh...
Well, you know,
my dad wasn't exactly father of the year.
He gave me the gift of soccer, but he definitely expected
his due in return once the contracts came in.
- Okay. That was good.
Let's try this one.
(sighs)
- After winning the Euros,
the team that drafted me let me go.
No loyalty, just, "Out with the old."
- Try this. - Rebecca,
I think that's good for now.
- Okay, yeah, no. We just...
take a pause.
I... always loved acting.
Until I realized that people wanted me to be
who I was on TV, and I had no control over that.
- Hmm.
Once the playing days ended and the fame dwindled,
I was just left to go at it alone.
- My best friend growing up was my tutor.
She was 32.
- My best friend over there, Derek...
distanced himself once my career took off.
It was the closest thing I had to a brother.
- My relationship with my mom, that's a tough one.
I hope we can work things out.
- The woman that I've committed to,
I don't know if she loves me
or she loves the life that I gave her.
- You should probably know that...
- I don't know if it's because something has changed between us
or we're just different people now, but I really...
know and I don't!
(sighs)
- Do you think that this offered any clarity?
- I think I feel... something. I don't know.
Look, maybe...
Maybe it's not all that big of a mystery.
(soft music)
Was your tutor really your best friend when you were a kid?
(chuckles)
Ouch.
- I know.
My childhood was... interesting.
It's all good.
- You should be careful.
That optimistic veneer
is starting to crack a little bit.
(chuckles)
Thank you for that.
I mean it.
What are you doing for the rest of the day?
- I'm trying to get out of moving duties.
Hey, I got an idea. Are you open to it?
- Definitely.
- You're up first.
- Do you always keep a bag of clubs in the back of your car?
- Well, golfing is addicting. You'll see.
- You've got it figured out.
Take a fun activity and call it work, I like that.
- Well, my trick is to sneak in the lesson
when you're not looking. - Okay, here we go.
Oh... What does that represent?
- The bad golfer. - Mm-hmm.
Been 12 years.
- Since you looked at a golf ball?
'Cause you've certainly never touched one.
- It's much easier to look than hit.
Okay, here we go.
Ah! - Ooh!
(water splashing) - Okay...
Yeah, pretty bad.
- Considering you're a professional athlete,
I mean, that is next-level bad.
- Professional soccer player. I use my feet.
Check this out. At least 150 yards.
- Oh, no! You don't want to use your feet with this!
(laughing)
The secret is to take your weaknesses
and focus on your strengths.
Try not to avoid things that you find to be difficult.
Go for it.
Focus.
- Oh, that felt good!
- Beautiful! 'Cause you were open.
- Oh, I see what you did there. (laughs)
You just weaved in a little lesson.
- That's what I do. (chuckling)
Okay, for the next one,
you want to keep your head down for the follow-through.
- Alright.
(laughing)
Alright, come here, big boy!
(upbeat music)
- Oh, you do know they have park services for that, right?
(laughs) - Well...
we are literally turning over a new leaf today.
- Oh!
- You see these leaves? - Mm-hmm.
- Each one represents something that you need to change.
- Oh. First, you're gonna identify
what you need to change.
Then, you're gonna identify how to change it.
Then, you're gonna flip it over. Like that.
Then, you're gonna leave the leaf behind for good.
Go ahead. - That's quite a few leaves.
- Hey, I'm just operating on the supplied data.
(laughs) - Alright. Uh...
Start with this one. - Just really think about it.
- How about a pic, Clive?
- Uh...
- Yeah! - Yeah, sure, we can do that.
- Hey, listen.
This is a perfect opportunity for you not to run,
so embrace it! Okay?
Put the good behaviour into motion, not just words.
I'll be right here. - Okay.
- Want a group pic? - Yeah.
- Great.
(soft music)
(shutter clicks)
(chuckling)
(shutter clicking)
(chuckling) - Sure, yes.
- Bet you wished you had that kick
from the '16 Euros back, huh?
- I do, I do.
- You cost us, man. You robbed us of history.
- Have you ever kicked a ball with millions of people
pinning their hopes and dreams on you?
- No. - Mm-hmm.
- But I was never paid millions of dollars to do it either.
- Okay, yeah, okay. - Thank you all.
- Hey. It was so nice to meet you, thank you, thanks.
- Hey, aren't you Bratty Becky?
We saw you on his show. - Yeah, yeah, I am.
- Couple of has-beens together. - Alright, you know what, man?
- Oh no, no. No, no, no.
Stop. I'm so sorry, have a great day. Come on!
(sighs)
- You know what? How's this for an escape plan?
Let's just get out of here. - Oh, yeah, this is great!
- Thanks, bud.
- Thank you! (laughs)
I love this. Oh, yes!
(sighs)
- Okay, are you good?
- Ah, this is fabulous!
(laughs)
Oh, I haven't done this in so long.
(soft music)
Let's just let that slight outburst slide, shall we?
- That's much better than it used to be.
- Back in the day, I would have decked that guy.
- Wow!
- I scored 323 career goals.
But I missed the most important shot.
That's all people choose to remember.
I mean, granted, the goalie made an incredible save.
But he makes that save one out of a hundred times maybe,
and he just happened to make the save that day.
And that's the difference
between being remembered as a good player
and being remembered as a legend.
- So, it's the fear that one person
will remember that moment,
and cancel out all of your adoring fans.
- I guess it's the same for you too, isn't it?
I mean, you did something special as a child,
and somehow, that's a bad thing.
The public turns on you, so I've decided to turn on them.
- You know, I've realized
that I haven't really let that stuff go.
It's affected my relationship with my mom.
It's not her fault, I can't blame her for it.
I've just avoided it.
- It's easier just to walk away sometimes.
- I just want to be Rebecca.
The segment that we did,
that was my first time on TV in 20 years.
- And some jerk made it extra hard for you.
I am really, really sorry about that.
- It's okay. You know what? Let's focus on you,
and getting back your adoring fans.
- Yeah, well that's what's tricky.
I mean, I just wish people could be more kind.
- Same.
- With this leaf,
I choose not to let things get to me.
(soft music)
(phone buzzing)
- You should, uh, answer that. - Yeah, yeah.
- It's Elise. She's been calling me all day.
She wants my opinion on this ridiculously expensive rug.
- Maybe that's the next leaf that you should be turning over.
- It's just a rug.
- You know what I mean.
- I know.
(upbeat music)
- Okay, okay, so tell us about dancing in this movie.
- Well, I had never danced professionally before the movie,
but now, I feel like I could teach anybody.
- Oh, hold on, hold on. Anyone?
Because I know an ex-pro soccer player with two left feet.
(audience laughs) - I'm up for the challenge.
- Oh, goodness. - No, oh my gosh!
(audience cheers) Yes, yes!
- Okay, okay! - Let's hit it!
- Amazing! Yes!
- Yes!
(upbeat music)
(indistinct chatter)
(laughing)
- Nice!
Attitude, yeah! - Attitude, swagger!
(applause)
- I love it!
(Clive howling)
- Dip! How 'bout a dip? Watch this.
(audience cheers)
- Beautiful!
- And we will be right back, after this commercial break.
- Wow! Good job.
- Nice chemistry. - Who knew he could dance?
- I meant the two of you.
I don't know how you did it.
Do you think you could do that again?
Like, on a daily basis?
Bring out this kind of change in people?
- Uh, sure!
(chuckles) - Great!
Good job.
(laughing)
- That's how we always do it.
It's all in the hips.
(laughing)
- I mean, working with Rebecca has been like,
really eye-opening.
- That's good. I streamed your last show.
I see you still got your moves.
You look happy. - Yeah.
- Any word from Ronnie about the new league?
- Uh, yeah, yeah. We're actually gonna get
an offer from the London-City Squad.
(laughs) - That's amazing!
Why didn't you tell me?
- Because I'm back on track to get my own show here,
and I want to see it through.
- Is that the only reason?
- What's that supposed to mean?
- Oh, nice!
- You know, I'm working on a whole new vibe here,
and I wanted to show you,
since you've been my interior decorator of sorts.
- Did Clive Baxter just make a joke?
- Yes, he did. A pretty good one, too.
- Oh, this looks great! It's so warm and inviting.
- Thank you. - Oh!
I... like your personal touch.
- Uh, yeah, I'm still kinda
trying to figure out where to put everything.
Hey! What are you doing this afternoon?
Do you want to have some lunch?
- Oh, I can't. I've got plans
with my friends Felix and Gillian.
- Okay. Uh, raincheck. Dinner, Friday night.
You know what? Bring Felix and Gillian.
It'll be like a housewarming!
- You don't even know them and they're strangers, so...
- It's called growth.
It's a real thing, it's happening. Feel it?
- Eh...
(Gillian): In college, I was like,
who is this girl?
She would organize charity drives,
the intermurals on the weekend,
the best parties, and make killer 3 AM nachos.
- You remember? - How could I not remember that?
You see, I knew then
I was not letting this one out of my life.
- Okay, now that I'm not so star-struck,
I gotta tell you...
- He has been waiting all night for this.
- It's not often I get to speak with a legend of the game.
(Gillian): A legend! - A legend, wow!
- Your game winner in extra time against Man City in '14
was the prettiest goal I've ever seen.
- I should've done that in the '16 Euros.
- No. No, the goalie made a great save.
I mean, he only makes that one out of hundred times.
What are you gonna do? He guessed right.
- Thank you, Felix. That's really kind of you.
- Honey, we have to have Clive at our engagement party.
You have to come with Rebecca.
- Yes! No, as a friend.
- To new friends.
- That sounds fun.
- To new friends!
- Cheers. - Cheers.
(laughing)
- Hey, that was a really great time,
we should all do that again.
- Yeah, that was so much fun, thank you!
- Good night.
- Thank you.
So, I'll see you in the morning? - For sure.
- Good night. - Good night.
- I see the old Rebecca I once knew.
- I see a whole new Rebecca. - Mm-hmm!
- A whole new Rebecca! A whole new Rebecca!
- Get in the car!
(Gillian): Okay, look at your smile right now, woman!
(indistinct chatter)
(upbeat music)
- Well, I hope you make it through the commercial break
this time, Clive.
I'll try not to provoke another meltdown
with my opinion. (audience laughs)
- Okay, I have learned not to argue with an expert.
I was wrong. You were right.
And I am sorry.
(applause, cheering)
- Well, as I was telling a client recently,
being able to... - Admit mistakes
and apologize, it's an important part of growth.
(applause, cheering)
(cheering continues)
(upbeat music)
(indistinct chatter)
You been here before? It's a great spot, love it.
- Thank you. - Here, here, here.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa! Put that away, I got you!
Come on! I wouldn't have said it if I didn't mean it.
Put it on my tab, thanks.
Hey, thanks for taking the time with Quinn
and finally reaching out. - Of course.
- You know, after his mom passed,
it took him a while to get excited about anything.
- When was that?
- Uh, wow...
One year next week.
Yeah, she was the only love of my life.
I knew the first time I met her.
But hey, I don't have to tell you,
you just found that kind of love.
(laughs) So, when's the wedding?
- Uh, you know, we're still trying
to figure out the logistics.
Things sort of stalled a little bit.
Long distance and all, it's not easy.
- Well, if there's one thing
it should be right now, it's easy.
- Yeah, I know.
Rebecca keeps calling me on that too,
and I know you're both right.
- She's a wonderful woman, man.
She used to check in on Quinn after...
Yeah, she would make him lunch and bring me dinner.
We'd only met a few times in the park before that.
- I mean, I love Elise, I do. I really do.
And I'm marrying her, I am. And it's gonna be great, but...
Man, I gotta tell you, I have laughed more
in the last three weeks with Rebeca
that I have in the previous three years before that.
(chuckles) - Look, bud.
I know you're a man of the world,
but where I'm from, friends shoot straight.
(sighs) - Let's hear it, please.
- I've learned to appreciate every day in love.
But if it's not the right kind of love,
don't waste any more of your time.
Make you happy. Do what makes you light up.
Like soccer does.
- Do you play golf?
(laughing)
- You got jokes.
- Ratings are climbing and word is that we're on track
to recover our ad partners.
- That's great! - It is.
It's not what I wanted to talk to you about.
- Oh. - As you know,
we've promised Clive his own show.
- Yes, no, that would really complete the work.
He's going to be thrilled.
- We have that slot to fill,
we just don't want to fill it with Clive.
- Why not?
- 'Cause we want to fill it with you instead.
"Your Very Best" daily hour.
After seeing the audience react to you
and what you pulled off with Clive,
I pitched the idea to the network,
and they're on board.
- My very own show? And Clive?
- Well, the plan was never to keep him on "Wake Up".
- Then what was the plan? - He'll land on his feet.
This just didn't work out. Network wanted to really
move more into the self-help realm over another morning show.
It just took you for them to see it.
- Does Clive know this?
- No. And you can't tell him, or anyone.
I'm taking a huge risk by telling you.
But I just wanted you to know because we are so excited!
- What are you so excited about?
- Um, her upcoming schedule.
- Oh, nice! Hey, I'm actually really glad you're here,
because if you're free later,
you should come by the soccer fields.
- Okay. - Putting in the work!
(birds chirping)
(Clive): Okay, here's the thing,
we're gonna go through our drills,
we're gonna start with two kicks,
then we're gonna do some ball-handling, alright?
Ready? Here we go.
(upbeat music)
There it is, there it is, there it is.
(laughing)
Bring it down. Nice, nice!
Beauty of a handle.
(indistinct chatter)
Alright, come here, bud.
(indistinct whispering)
- Okay. - Alright.
- Walter, I'm open!
- Oh!
(laughing) - Woo!
- Yes! That's what's up. Good job, buddy.
(laughing)
- Hey! (laughs)
- Thanks, Clive. Did you see my goal?
- Sure did, it was amazing! - Just like we practiced.
Like I said, practice pays off.
- And that's a huge life lesson too, son.
So I'll see you later this week? - For sure.
- Congrats! - Thanks.
- Oh, what, you didn't hear I have friends now?
Like I said, I've been putting in the work.
- I'm impressed. - Thank you.
I can now see your true talent.
- Just make sure you keep it up when we stop working together,
which will be soon.
- Yeah. You know, I was thinking
maybe we could keep working together outside of the show.
- Uh, yeah. I mean...
Actually... - What?
- Never mind.
Can I show you something?
- Please. - Okay, come on.
- Okay, what are we doing? - Shh!
- What is this? - I'm gonna show you.
Wait, just careful. - Careful?
- Keep your voice down.
- I'm pretty sure we're trespassing.
- Come this way. (laughing)
Okay. - Alright.
- Are you ready? - What? What is this?
Oh. (laughing)
Wow. This is really cool.
- This is where I used to perform.
Now I just come here to relax and reboot.
- I get that. It's so quiet in here.
- You know, I really did love it.
I loved it here, not on TV.
Out here... (laughs)
They would come and watch for one night only,
and everything lived right here on the stage,
in this moment.
They didn't save it for years.
(soft music)
I had my guard up too.
For a long time.
I was nervous that maybe...
my fans would one day turn on me.
- Our two completely different worlds
aren't so different, are they?
- Hmm.
- You know, the team has offered me a spot to return.
It's mine if I want it.
It's... in London.
- Do you want it?
- No. For the first time in my life, I don't.
- I mean, are you sure? Maybe you should hear them out.
- I'm surprised to hear you say that.
- It's just an option.
- No, I'm clear, this is what I want to do now.
I lacked purpose in my life
after my football career was over.
I was lost for so long.
I feel like I finally found that, thanks to you.
- Me?
(door opening)
- Oh no, it's the paparazzi!
- What? No, that's just...
(laughing)
- Ah, that was fun. - That was fun.
- I... I should probably head home.
- Yeah, and I should probably get ready.
- Yeah.
- So, I'll see you at the engagement party.
- I'll be there.
Look at me! I'm a real social butterfly now.
(chuckling)
- See ya. - I'll see ya.
- Yeah.
(soft music)
(phone chimes)
(sighs)
- Oh, wow.
- What do you think? Too much?
- Are you kidding? You look like the star that you are.
- Well, I am going to my friend's engagement party.
- Okay...
- What?
- Well, didn't you say that he was gonna be there?
- Yes, Mom. He's their friend too now.
- Just be smart.
- He's my client.
- Yeah, I get that.
All I'm saying is that I want you to be careful.
I know you better than anyone else,
and if I know what I think I know,
I just don't want to see you get hurt.
- What, by wearing a dress?
- By mistaking a working connection
for something more,
and falling for a guy who's engaged.
There. Did I spell it out enough for you?
- I hear you, Mom. Thanks. And I am being smart.
Good. - I think.
- Oh, dear.
- Margaret gave me my own show!
- Oh, that's amazing!
- It's at the expense of Clive, though.
- Okay, well maybe this is for the best.
You know, he can carry on with his fiance,
and you get what you deserve professionally.
- See, this is why I'm so scared to tell you things.
You get these ideas in your head and you just run with them.
- I'm your mother! What do you expect?
- What if... What if I am conflicted?
My feelings?
Do you have any advice as my mom?
- Just focus on yourself.
You have worked too hard to let your feelings ruin this,
especially for a guy that's in love with someone else.
- But what if he's not?
- Honey, please don't make the same mistake I did.
(soft music)
- We're late.
Come on.
- None of this would be happening
if I hadn't made the second-best decision of my life
and hired Rebecca.
She gave me the confidence
to make the very best decision of my life,
which is to marry Gillian.
My best friend.
(guests): Aw!
- Okay, enough mushy stuff.
Some people save all the dancing for the wedding,
but as you know, Gillian and I
are not those kinds of people.
Hit it!
(rhythmic music playing)
(laughing)
- I'm coming for you!
(indistinct chatter)
- Oh!
(laughing)
(♪)
Oh! (laughing)
- Clive. I just wanted to thank you for bringing
some life back to my daughter.
- Well, the rejuvenation's been mutual.
- Look. I can see how this whole thing
you have going on can be very enticing.
But as a business woman, I've never been afraid
to let my voice or opinion be heard.
Please don't mess with her head.
With this new opportunity,
the finish line is in your sights.
And she really doesn't need any distractions.
- Clive! Come here, I need you to help us settle something.
Okay, should a man be involved
in picking out an engagement ring,
or do you think that it would take away from the romance?
- I said, "What do you want?" I don't want to get this wrong.
(laughing) - Be honest.
- I don't know, I feel like he should know what you want.
But if he doesn't, I bet you'll love it anyways,
because it came from his heart.
I mean, there must've been
some reason that he picked it out, right?
- Yeah.
You know what? I'm just gonna steal her for one minute.
She'll be right back. Come here.
- Excuse me.
- We're gonna rent a big cabin out of town
for my bachelor party in a couple weeks.
We'd love for you to join.
- You know, let me give it a think.
I might be heading overseas taking care of something
I should've done a long time ago,
and it needs to be done in person, so...
- Yeah, of course. - Thanks.
- Well, Rebecca knows we want to move forward with YVB Daily.
No, I haven't broken the news to Clive yet.
Mm-hmm. Well, when he finds out we're canning his show for hers,
I don't expect him to go calmly.
Yeah, I'll let him know
about the other decision in a few days.
(soft music)
- I've gotta tell you guys something,
but you can't say a word. - Wait, us first.
There is something we want to talk to you about.
- Okay... - Well, after planning
the engagement party, and seeing how much fun
everyone was having, I think I've found my calling.
- Mm, dance competitions? - Oh, stop!
(laughing) No, party planning!
I've been thinking about what my own best version is,
and although I've loved helping you get YVB
to where it is, I really want to give this a go. For me.
Well, and us.
- Your party was amazing!
Had I known you were gonna abandon me,
I would've played down my excitement!
(laughing) - You're not mad?
- No, no, of course not.
Hey. I'm proud of you. - Aw...
- I am. - Thank you.
- I just want you to be happy, hmm!
- And I'm just saying, I have not seen you glow
like you did yesterday since, well, ever.
- Oh, well, even if that is true,
there is one big problem.
- Okay, time for my news. Now, I'm breaking
the guy code here, but I'm doing it
in the name of love.
(both): He's breaking up with her!
- Wait, it was my news!
- Wait, wait, how do you know this?
- Well, he told me. Not exactly, but I read between the lines
and I'm pretty sure it's going down.
- Uh, pretty sure? - Mm-hmm.
- Well, don't give him any reason to doubt it.
Tell him how you feel.
- Based on hearsay?
- No! Based on what you feel! - And what he obviously feels.
- If you're gonna do it, can you hurry up?
I would like to find wedding clients ASAP.
- See, this is what it's all about, isn't it?
- Yeah. We want you to find what you gave us.
- Aw. (laughing)
- Hey, what were you gonna tell us?
- I... I wanted your opinion on something,
but I figured it out. Yeah.
You guys go ahead, and I'll catch up.
- Okay, we'll talk soon. - Bye.
(birds calling)
- Yeah...
(ringing tone)
Ugh, voicemail.
Hi, Margaret, it's Rebecca. I can't take the offer.
I appreciate everything that you've done, I just,
I can't do that to Clive.
So, uh, feel free to give me a call back
and we can discuss the next steps.
Thank you and I'm sorry. Bye.
(soft music)
(birds chirping)
(doorbell ringing)
Hi! - Hi.
Did we have something scheduled?
- Oh, uh, no. I was in the neighborhood.
(chuckles) No, I saw this plant,
and it made me think of you.
It's a good graduation gift, don't you think?
- Uh, yeah, thank you. - Yeah. Um...
Did you want to go for a walk
or get a coffee? I wanted to talk...
- Um...
- Hi. - Rebecca, this is Elise.
- Uh, nice to finally meet you in person.
(chuckles) - My pleasure.
Rebecca, was it? - Yeah, Rebecca.
- Um, I'll be just a second.
- I am so sorry. I did not mean to interrupt anything.
- She surprised me. We've been up talking all night.
- And?
- And... and she reminded me of who I really am.
She and I have years of history, not weeks.
- But that's the old you. - Is it?
- Yeah.
- Do people really change for good,
or am I just selling my soul to be something
that they want me to be, that you want me to be?
- No, no, I want you to be the best...
- The best version of me, I know, I know.
-You keep saying that. What you feel is best,
which also happens to be good for you, how convenient.
- And you?
- I think that she has a valid point.
- No, not she! You! How do you feel?
I don't even think she knows you that well.
(scoffs)
- I am so sorry. I'm not trying to get involved.
- Then don't. We're moving back to London.
- I'm a footballer, okay?
I don't fit in with your type, I was just playing a part.
- I disagree. I think you're so much better than that.
- You're relentless. Television people...
You don't know what's real and what's fake.
Thanks for everything.
- Well?
(dialling)
- Yeah, hey, Ronnie.
Um, just letting you know that I'll take the offer.
I'm coming home. Alright.
- Let's spend the day together, okay?
We can go to the city, have a walk,
make a plan like we used to.
I have some fantastic news.
I secured extra funding for your morning TV show.
So that's all you really need to focus on right now.
- It's over, Mom.
I already told Margaret. It's not happening.
- What? Well, not unless you make it happen.
- No. Sometimes things are not in your control.
And after having been pushed to do things my whole life,
I want to trust myself now.
- Pushed?
You know, you have selective memory.
As a child, you begged me to be an actress.
That was your dream.
So yeah, I wanted you to dream big.
What is wrong with that?
- I wanted to stop acting, Mom. Don't you remember?
No, because you didn't listen to me,
just like you're not listening to me now.
I don't want to mix business and family.
Do you hear that?
- I will always fight for what I think is best for you.
Sometimes, you need to get out of your own way.
- Mom! Mom!
(engine starting)
- Well, I hope you're following your heart,
'cause you have nothing left to prove in the game.
- Quinn, is your dad always this emotional?
- Pretty much.
- Look, man, it's complicated, but thank you.
I've appreciated this, seriously.
- Come on! (laughing)
- Thanks, man.
Hey, great working with you, bud.
- Thank you. - Really good work.
- Good luck. - Thanks.
You guys come to London for a game.
- Absolutely. - See ya.
- Bye.
- Hey! Found you!
Did you think I was gonna let you leave without
giving you one last big pitch? - Hey, I know.
I know that Margaret is replacing my show with you.
Why do you think I quit?
- Oh, right, because Clive Baxter
leaves on his own terms, right? He doesn't get fired.
- So you did know I was getting the axe, that's perfect.
- No! I was hoping that things would work out.
- They did work out. For you.
Yeah, I was just your stepping stone.
- No, that was never the plan.
That's just what ended up happening.
- You, Rebecca, out of everyone,
brought out that fear in me that I can't trust people,
and after we worked so hard to bury that exact fear...
- I turned the show down.
Did Margaret tell you that part?
I did it for you, because I care about you.
- That's... That's really nice, but you didn't need to do that.
- Well, this way, you can go back
and talk to them and work things out.
I don't have to be a part of it, I want you to be happy.
- I think I figured out what's gonna make me happy.
- Like avoiding that big question in your life?
- That's your relationship advice?
From the person who's convinced herself that being single
is her best version.
I mean, I'm not a doctor or an image consultant,
but that one doesn't seem that hard to figure out.
- I'm working on that.
And I thought maybe...
Never mind.
- I've realized that sometimes,
we just have to accept who we are.
And that's okay.
- Please, if you could just give Clive his show back.
- He quit.
- He quit "Wake Up". And since I'm out,
just pretend I was never an option,
and give him his own show in my spot.
He'll stay for that. Otherwise,
all of this is for nothing if he just quits.
- Not if you just accept the show. Think about it.
Would he do the same for you?
- I think he would.
- Well, I guess we'll never know.
We're pre-taping his last few episodes,
and then he's back to London.
- No, I am going back to focusing on myself and work.
- Or maybe this is the time
to let other people be there for you.
- Hmm. I got myself into this, I can get myself out.
- Mm-hmm.
(phone chiming, buzzing)
- Ah, it's my mom. We had a huge blowout.
- Repeat offender. You gotta break the cycle.
- Yeah. - Listen,
it took me hitting my low point
before I changed any of my behaviors.
And if I hadn't, I would've pushed Felix away
before I ever could've fallen in love with him.
- I'm pretty sure I've destroyed any chance of having
something like that with Clive.
- I am not talking about Clive.
Your mom's heart is in the right place.
Like you told me, you have to let go
of your past to move forward.
Come on.
- Hey, Mom. - Hi.
- Okay, what is your new pitch?
- Look at this.
You could have your own show.
We don't need "Wake Up World".
You know, I believe you have this gift,
and I think you should share it with as many people as possible.
- Oh, Mom.
Okay, but I have one condition.
That you'll do this with me.
Nice doing business with you, Mom.
(laughing)
- Oh!
- You know, I've realized that it's true.
Everything you've done for me was in my best interest.
I'm sorry.
- I'm still your mom, and I love you so much.
And I feel when you're hurting. What's going on?
- He got the card.
And I haven't heard anything.
It's done.
- What card?
(birds chirping)
(♪)
- Maybe she's right.
This is your best version.
And if I'm honest with myself, our best version
was long ago.
I guess we've grown apart.
- Or I've just grown. And that's okay.
(♪)
(Rebecca): As we finish this journey,
I want you to know that I've never been
more proud of someone.
You've shown me that the people
in our lives make us our best version.
I very much want you in my life,
and like this plant,
hopefully we can both continue to grow.
Together.
(♪)
(Clive): With this officially being my last show,
I would like to thank everyone who took a chance on me.
It's been an interesting ride.
One that I'll never forget.
(applause)
- Clive, I hope we don't put you on the spot too much,
but can I say, it has been an absolute pleasure
watching you grow in this profession.
And it would be a shame to stop now.
How would you like to see more of this emotional chat,
bare it all, five days a week,
on his own show?
(applause, cheering)
What do you say?
All Clive Live?
(♪)
(Clive): Thank you, Margaret.
But I think it's time for me to lay it all bare.
My engagement's been called off.
Or should I say, mutually agreed upon by two mature adults.
(♪)
(phone chimes)
- What?
- I've come to realize
that we're all a work in progress.
(door opening) And that different people...
And that people come into your life at different times.
And that's their purpose.
Some are more important than others.
But everyone leaves their mark on who you are.
A very special person taught me this.
That's exactly what I said, and I remembered it
because I actually practiced it a lot.
(chuckles)
I turned it all down.
The football and Margaret's offer.
- You mean... you're staying?
- Your mom called me.
She told me about your plan.
Congratulations.
You're gonna make a great team.
I've been thinking a lot about your mantra.
What is the best version of you? And I think that you nailed it.
It's being with someone who brings out the best in you.
- Even if you didn't see that person coming.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- You helped me realize
that we are not the same version that we were last year.
Or even last month.
- Or even yesterday.
- I am ready to be my best version.
A version that includes forgiveness and trust.
And I saw that that is with you.
What do you think?
- I think... we could use a cohost.
- Good, because I'm actually out of a job.
- What? (laughing)
Where'd all this funniness come from?
- I was always funny. You just brought it out in me.
(upbeat music)
