Oh,
Wait!
Sorry, Just one second before you take off his pants,
Oh, my God, Mindy, hi, Um,,,
I thought you were supposed to be at Nicolas' tonight?
Yeah, well,,,
Are you,,, Are you okay?
Yeah, no, I'm fine,
I can cry in the stairwell,
Wait, what's going on?
Nico and I had a huge fight and,,,
I'll let you guys talk, Um,,, I'm,,, I'm so sorry, Mindy, Uh,,,
Thank you,
- I'm sorry, - It's okay,
So, what happened?
After the article about his skeezy father,
his family's been doing this damage control,
and he wanted me to go to some charity event
and be photographed with them, and I said, "Are you crazy?"
I didn't want to be complicit,
and he asked, "Do you think I'm complicit?"
And I said, "Well, a picture with your father doesn't help,"
Yeah, Well,,, you're not wrong there,
Right? Thank you,
And,,,
I'm so sorry about the cock block,
I mean, are Camille and Sofia still at his place?
Sure are,
Are you okay with that?
Yeah, it's, you know, it's a little crowded, but it's temporary,
Wow,
Bisexuals, baby mama drama,
Being French looks good on you, Em,
Really good,
Mmm,
- Bonjour, - Are three people living here?
- Hmm? - That is not permitted on the lease,
Je ne vois pas du tout de quoi vous parlez,
Ah, désolée vous devez vous trom,,,
I have seen this one coming and going,
Bonjour,
No, she's just a friend! She's visiting us from Greece,
Good friend, Yeah?
Do you want a slice of quiche?
Gabriel made it, It's excellent,
Mmm,
I wish you an excellent day,
Goodbye,
Yeah, that's it,
Goodbye,
That's it then, It's finished,
JVMA pulled their money for the club,
Well, now we have to let everyone know that the opening is cancelled,
I'm sorry, darling,
Don't be,
This whole deal was tainted from the start,
But,,, why didn't you tell me about Louis?
Because I wanted this club to happen,
No, before that,
I'm your husband,
You can talk to me about anything,
Laurent, I'm not a victim,
I've worked hard to get where I am,
I wanted to write my story, not be a part of his,
I understand,
And I'm proud of you for taking a stand,
Anyway, I feel like I've been away from St, Tropez for too long,
Ooh! There's my she-ro!
Who will not be silenced,
Well, JVMA's investment was contingent on me being quiet,
so Laurent G à Paris is dead,
What?
But we're opening this weekend, and people are flying in,
We have over 500 RSVPs,
Tell them "no," No location, no party,
We cannot give up that easily, okay?
There must be another venue that,,,
Drop it, Emily,
Allô, Maman,
Can you meet me for lunch today?
This is bad,
Several meetings this week have already been cancelled,
Seriously?
Agence Grateau is too controversial,
Clients want to see themselves in the press, not their marketing firm,
Well, we still have one client today,
Huh? They must not be French,
And, as you know, Augustinus Bader,
the legendary skincare line,
is an open secret among celebrities from Victoria Beckham to Margot Robbie,
But now, we're planning to revolutionize beauty
with a new shampoo specifically formulated for women of a certain age,
Oh, wonderful, What can we do for you?
What we are looking for is an agency to give us a new twist and a,,,
Old hair,
No, not "old," "mature"?
I reviewed the brief and had a thought,
Cyndi Lauper,
- Mmm, - Let your true colors shine through,
Ah, yeah,
Everyone loves that song,
Let me stop you right there,
Love Cyndi, but what we are looking for is something deeper
that speaks to our clientele,
They're sophisticated, accomplished, confident,,,
And rich,
Okay, just give us a couple of days
and we'll come back to you with some ideas,
Can't wait,
Oh,
Bonjour, madame, Can I help you?
Well, you can start by speaking French,
I'm here to see my daughter,
Ah! Bonjour, Héloise! How are you?
You know who this is? This is Sylvie's mother,
La Reine de la Nuit,
The Queen of the Night?
Yeah,
She had one of the most famous nightclubs in all of Paris,
Maman!
What are you doing here?
You're supposed to meet me at the café,
You were late, I'm not a person who waits in the street,
- Okay, - Allez,
Oui,
That's Sylvie's mom?
She was everything in the '70s,
Rumor has it that she had an affair
with Mick Jagger and Rod Stewart at the same time,
At the same time, or at the same time?
Oui,
Okay,
You had to know this would happen,
You never should have spoken to that reporter,
You should have come to me,
I'm sure you would have been a great support,
Well, what can I do if I'm only ever wrong?
No, Maman, this isn't about you,
Or me, It's about Laurent,
What now?
I'm trying to salvage Laurent's club opening,
And you have a space that's been unoccupied for 20 years,
So I have to save your husband a second time?
You never "saved" Laurent,
I gave him money,,,
to open his club in St, Tropez,
And it was the best investment you ever made,
If he doesn't launch his club,
he'll have no reason to stay in Paris,
Maman, can we use the venue or not?
Of course, darling,
What kind of a mother would I be if I wasn't there for my daughter?
- Hmm? - Thank you, Maman,
Of course,,,
,,,I have a few conditions,
Welcome and prepare yourself to witness
Gregory Dupree for Pierre Cadault,
Couture as you have never seen it before,
Great,
This better be good,
What are those?
Those,,, are dicks, Nick,
Gregory is reimagining formal wear with a vision of, uh, what's underneath?
Are you crazy?
Do you have any idea what kind of scrutiny my father is under right now?
He was my inspiration,
Men can't keep their dicks in their pants,
Why should we pretend otherwise?
We are not doing penis pants,
You haven't even seen the women's collection,
And I never will!
Shut it down,
All of it!
Prick,,,
Julien, when you get back into the office, my father would like to have a word,
If it's about the penis pants, that was not my idea,
- I swear, - No,
It's about your former boss,
Emily,
It was so great meeting your mom,
I spent all lunch googling her,
Is it true that she really almost broke up ABBA?
- Was she the dancing queen? - Okay,
Clear your schedule and your browsing history,
- I need you tonight, Laurent G is back on, - Oh, great,
Um, I actually have something tonight,,, that I will now be late for,
- Yep, - Yep,
Et voilà,
What do you think?
I think it looks like a place
that was hot in the '70s,
It's not about the place,
It's about the people, We will resurrect the glory days of disco,
It's very chic,
But Laurent G is a beach club,
Yeah, but maybe this can be one too,
Do you remember that Chanel fashion show from the Spring/Summer collection
a few years ago?
They transformed the Grand Palais
into Chanel by the sea,
Yeah, very cool,
We've got sand and cabanas from the old location,
We could project the ocean on this wall, and a boardwalk would lead us to the bar,
And maybe we can get a wave machine to complete the entire illusion,
It'll be exactly what we had outdoors, only in here,
Can this club handle water?
Oh, please,
Carla Bruni practically drowned in a foam party here in the '80s,
- Hi, - Hi,
Oh, I'm so sorry I'm late,
Oh, no worries, Join us,
Oh,
- Hi, guys, - Hi,
Didn't know you were joining us too,
Gabriel invited us,
Okay, I need as many opinions as possible,
I think we need this pastry chef for a Michelin star,
Well, let's get tasting,
Black truffle ice cream
paired with a highly concentrated espelette chili chocolate gateau,
Okay,
Mmm!
- Oh, - Yeah?
Wow,
Mm-hmm,
Then we have a French classic,
Mont Blanc with a chocolate mousse bomb in the center,
- Mmm! - Dig in,
Incredible,
- Mmm! - Yeah?
Camille, what do you think? I thought Mont Blanc was your favorite dessert?
No, it's fine,
We've had better,
That place in Megève, remember?
Yes, I remember your dad wouldn't stop pouring vin chaud,,,
,,,and that we were very drunk,
- You wouldn't stop drinking it! - Yes, it's true,
English, please?
Oh! Sorry, we're just reminiscing,
About what? We all want to be amused,
Okay,
Enough of the past, We'll stay in the present, In English,
Isn't this great? I love the four of us together,
Mm-hmm, It's a real ménage à quatre,
We've zoomed right past trois,
Uh,,,
Would you help me with another dessert in the kitchen?
Yeah,
- Sorry, - Yeah,
I'm so sorry I didn't tell you they were coming,
I know we haven't gotten much alone time lately,
Yeah, no, I know, I get it,
What can you do, right?
Mindy's at mine, they're at yours,
I just,,, I wish we had a place for a ménage à deux,
I know, I just cannot wait another night to be with you,
Maybe we should get a room somewhere,
Hmm, don't worry, I have a plan,
I'll be at your door in an hour,
Mmm,
Sorry, she's asleep,
Mindy, Sorry, I'll go get my bag,
You won't be needing that tonight,
- Oh! - Mmm!
Have fun, you two,
- Hmm, - Oh,
We're not going down,
We're going up,
Oh,
Oh!
You did all of this?
It's amazing,
You're quite the romantic,
I just want to be with you,
Anywhere and everywhere,
And I promise this situation is temporary,
Well, if you keep getting creative,
I might be able to put up with it for a little while longer,
Oh, you have no idea how creative I can be,
You did not!
I had a little sexploit,
Emily Jane Cooper, you are not sex on the roof girl,
you're sex on the bed, with the lights off,,,
- Well,,, - ,,,and a towel down,
- Maybe I'm more than one thing, you know? - Mmm?
Maybe I'm a little more complex than that,
Oh! How complex, Wanna talk about it in the shower?
Want me to call your bluff?
Emily, who are you right now?
Someone who's living the question
instead of always trying to find the right answer,
Oh, did you see that on a billboard from the roof?
Ha-ha,
Everything doesn't always have to be so black and white,
Mmm, sounds like you got on some pretty rose-colored glasses,
Or gray,
We meet our ideal customer,
She's lived with the same dyed brown hair her entire adult life,
But, with Augustinus Bader shining through,
she can decide to be her authentic self,
EMBRACE THE GRAY AREA
This campaign is not about age, it's about attitude,
What makes people sexy is their openness to new experiences,
new types of relationships,
Our pitch is about embracing the gray area,
Interesting, the gray area,
So, how do we show that?
Yes, Emily, What does this ad look like?
Well, picture our ideal client with a man,
You may think it's her husband, but it's not,
Who is it?
Well, it's,,, It's not about him, it's about her,
She's done dying her hair, and now she's just dying to live,
She takes that mystery man up to the rooftop of her apartment,
and it's very unlike her, I might add,
and just, you know, makes love to him right there,
Why the roof?
Maybe there's people in her apartment, you know?
Or maybe she's in a throuple,
Or a polyamorous quad, you know?
But they just,,, they just wanted a moment alone together,
I like this woman with the gray hair,
Luc, Go on, Emily,
Look, all of this is to say
that, with Augustinus Bader, going gray isn't giving up,
It's glowing up,
She's,,, she's older, she's bolder,
she's,,, she's living in the zone between intimacy and exhibitionism,
She's living in the gray area,
I think you've nailed our customer,
I think everyone will want to nail your customers
after they see this campaign,
Nice job in there,
I'm a little surprised though,
Why?
Americans can't tolerate ambiguity,
The simple girl that walked in here from Chicago
could have never conceived that pitch,
I'm gonna take that as a compliment,
I've been living in the gray area all my life,
But honestly, I didn't picture you embracing it,
I'm trying,
I'm really trying,
Do you realize how much sand they're pouring into that club basement?
There are four dump trucks blocking Rue de Rivoli,
This club is either gonna be a smashing success
or the end of my marriage, Or both,
Or maybe just a giant litter box,
Okay, Merci,
- Oh! - Oh! Excuse-moi,
Julien,
This looks magnificent,
Thank you,
Emily told me I could find you here,
Louis de Leon is trying to retaliate for the article,
I know, That's why we have to build a beach in a club,
It's worse than that,
He asked for dirt on you,
And what did you tell him?
"I quit,"
So you have time?
What do you need?
How are you with a shovel?
We have one night to give Paris a party they won't forget,
Nicolas,,, Come on, babe, Let's work this out,
Why don't you come tonight to Laurent's club opening?
You know I can't be seen there,
And you can't be performing in a club associated with Sylvie,
It makes it look like we're choosing sides,
I think right now it's better to be Switzerland,
I am not asking you to choose a side, I'm asking you to choose me,
Oh,
Hey, you two,
- Hey, - How was your day?
Long, We've been apartment hunting,
Oh! How did it go?
Well, we,,, we saw some prospects,
but, unfortunately, Camille had problems with all of them,
You didn't like them all either,
No, I like the one with the artist studio,
Yeah, you would, but it's 45 minutes out of the city,
I'm not living in Paris to not live in Paris,
Okay, well, there are nice apartments in Athens,
Oh, I bet,
I could never leave Paris,
My life is here,
I'll see you later,
Well, I guess we'll just keep looking,
It is late, what is the problem?
Three people! In this apartment!
- What? What are you saying? - Okay, um,,,
Gabriel's apartment has a ménage à trois,
Okay, it's too many people, Too many people,
C'est trop!
Three people! I knew it! Thank you! I will deal with this,
Emily,
It's been a long time since Paris has seen anything quite like this,
I know what you mean,
Those ladies over there think the beach is topless,,,
- Don't point, Emily, - Well, they're pointing at me,
I just hope Laurent's happy,
Well, looks like your mother is,
Oh, that's not a good sign, They rarely are at the same time,
Sylvie! You have to see who's just arrived,
The penis party is here!
Okay, place yourselves, Photographers!
What is that?
That is Pierre Cadault by Gregory Dupree,
JVMA tried to cancel the line,
but now these pictures are going to be in every tabloid in Paris,
Louis is going to be so furious,
You're welcome,
♪ Don't go breaking my heart ♪
♪ I couldn't if I tried ♪
♪ Oh, honey, if I get restless ♪
♪ Baby, you're not the kind ♪
Such a hot couple,
I hope she really doesn't break his heart,
No, no, no, it's just an act, they're not actually together,
♪ Oh, honey, when you knock on my door ♪
♪ Ooh, I gave you my key ♪
You can't fake that kind of chemistry on stage,
♪ Right from the start I gave you my heart ♪
♪ Oh-ho, I gave you my heart ♪
Now this feels like Laurent G,
That gives you a real reason to be in Paris now,
I don't need this reason to stay,
I'm glad to see you two so happy,
We're happy to see you, The Queen of the Night, in her place,
You're inseparable,
The Queen of the Night retired 25 years ago,
Today, this is Laurent G à Paris,
If you want it to be,
That's very generous of you,
We'll discuss my terms later,
For now, just save me a cabana,
And a cut of the door,
We'll figure it out,
- Chin, - Chin,
♪ Right from the start I gave you my heart ♪
♪ Oh-ho, I gave you my heart ♪
♪ Don't go breaking my heart ♪
♪ I won't go breaking your heart ♪
- ♪ I won't go breaking your heart ♪ - ♪ Won't go breaking your heart ♪
- Great job, - Yeah, yeah, you too,
Nico!
I can't believe you're here,
I wanted to see your performance, but I heard I just missed it,
Oh, good, I,,, I mean, it wasn't our best,
but what's important is that you came,
Mindy, I heard what you've been saying,
I told the board that as long as my dad was still CEO,
I wouldn't be working for JVMA,
Oh, no, So they fired you?
No, They want my father to step down,
Oh, my God, What does this mean?
I don't know,
I'm so proud of you,
Well, forget about the roof, let's go to the beach,
Maybe that cabana over there?
Can I be honest with you?
That roof sex was a one-time thing,
Okay,
There are too many people in this relationship,
I,,, I thought I could live in the gray area, and be cool with it,
and I pitched an entire campaign based on how exciting it can be,
but the more I think about it,,,
It's just not me,
I need boundaries,
And, um, and order, and a ceiling over my bed,
So I told the gardienne there were three people living in your apartment,
So did I,
What?
Emily, I don't want to lose you or my apartment over this,
I'm gonna get us some drinks at the bar,
Emily, hey,
Hi!
Oh, Sorry, I'm late,
The gardienne cornered us,
Apparently someone told her
that there were three people in the apartment,
now we've to move out by tomorrow,
Who would do that?
Whoever it was did us a favor,
because she told us there is a vacant apartment
right next door to Gabriel,
Can you believe it? It was right under our nose the whole time,
I'm gonna tell Gabriel the good news,
Gabriel,
- Camille, - Ça va?
Ça va, Tu ne sais pas la nouvelle?
So did you hear? We're going to be neighbors,
I did, Yeah, Talk about serendipity,
She's having his baby,
Did you really think that she was going to move away from him?
