00:00:00Wow, Addy, looks like a whole new shoe.
00:00:05Oh, Mr. Simmons likes to stand out.
00:00:08Just because he works in construction doesn't mean he can't be stylish.
00:00:11You have so many great designs.
00:00:12I bet if we tried, we could make some of these right here in the shop.
00:00:15Oh, we're barely keeping up with repairs.
00:00:17Besides, I doubt Mr. Simmons is in the market for kitten heels.
00:00:22She's down.
00:00:23Oh, you sing my little angel to sleep?
00:00:25Oh, your little angel thinks that I need a vocal coach.
00:00:28In five months, her father will be on leave, and he can take over the lullaby duties.
00:00:32Well, I have been trying to teach her thumbs down.
00:00:34Oh, thank you so much for that.
00:00:36Yeah, she's really got the spirit of it, for sure.
00:00:39By the way, you're going to be singing my praises pretty soon.
00:00:42I got you a job.
00:00:44Another one?
00:00:45I still have to stuff goodie bags for Ruby's birthday party.
00:00:48No, no, no, no.
00:00:49I met this lady, Janice, at Mommy and Me class, and she works in HR at Delaney Diaz.
00:00:55She said that there's an opening at the front desk.
00:00:57Wait, the Delaney Diaz?
00:00:59I don't get the excitement about her.
00:01:01Dad, she is a pioneer in women's designer footwear.
00:01:05Look at this ad.
00:01:09Crystal shoes are practical.
00:01:10That's not the point.
00:01:13It shows that artistry and new ideas can emerge in unexpected places.
00:01:17A Diaz is one of a kind.
00:01:19Apparently, Mrs. Hollingsworth said the same thing when she dropped off her Diazes.
00:01:23Where?
00:01:25And let me guess.
00:01:26She asked for Addie specifically?
00:01:27She's our number one customer for a reason.
00:01:30I can't believe how much money she makes buying these old designer shoes and having you to
00:01:33restore them.
00:01:36Look at this iconic shoe.
00:01:38Suede insoles creates a luxurious footpad.
00:01:43She was at the top of her game when these came out.
00:01:45Was is the key word, though.
00:01:47She's traded style for sellability with her new stuff.
00:01:50Too much success can ruin a brand.
00:01:53I still think she's brilliant.
00:01:54I think your designs are better.
00:01:56Listen, it's just a receptionist job for now, but it's also a foot in the door.
00:02:01You know, maybe you could show her your designs.
00:02:03It would be cool to meet her.
00:02:05I'll think about it.
00:02:07Can't.
00:02:08I already told her that you would be perfect for the job, so she wants to interview you
00:02:12tomorrow.
00:02:13Claudia, no.
00:02:14I mean, what about the shop?
00:02:16Dad and I have got the shop.
00:02:18It's Manhattan.
00:02:19It's really far away.
00:02:20Dad, what do you think?
00:02:22I want my daughters to follow their dreams.
00:02:23What are you doing?
00:02:24Get out of here.
00:02:25Okay.
00:02:26Hello?
00:02:27Hello?
00:02:28Hello?
00:02:29Hello?
00:02:30Hello?
00:02:31Hello?
00:02:33Okay.
00:02:58And another one bites the dust.
00:03:01Picking up or dropping off?
00:03:02I'm here for Janice.
00:03:03I'm interviewing for the receptionist job.
00:03:05Oh, thank the good Lord.
00:03:07You're hired.
00:03:08Sit, Thomas.
00:03:09You must be Addie Connors, Claudia's sister?
00:03:11Yes.
00:03:12Well, you came at the perfect time.
00:03:13We have a more pressing position that just opened.
00:03:15Oh, no, she can't.
00:03:17Look at her outfit.
00:03:19She's not ready.
00:03:20Ignore him.
00:03:21Thomas is filling in.
00:03:22He's our floater.
00:03:23Actually, I'm her assistant.
00:03:24Floater's below my pay grade.
00:03:25Thank you for your service.
00:03:26Come on, Addie.
00:03:27Let's go chat.
00:03:29Delaney Diaz, please hold.
00:03:32Not going to sugarcoat it, Addie.
00:03:34This place is not for the weak.
00:03:35I hope you know how to juggle.
00:03:36Oh, I'm a good multitasker.
00:03:37I answer the phones at my father's shop while working the register.
00:03:40How are you with people?
00:03:41Delaney is, let's say, particular.
00:03:43Oh, people always say I'm cheerful.
00:03:46Could be worse, I guess.
00:03:48This is our main design area.
00:03:50Wow.
00:03:52This is a dream.
00:03:54I cannot believe I am standing where Delaney Diaz's shoes are made.
00:03:58It used to be made.
00:03:59We don't do couture anymore.
00:04:00I mean, our designers have everything within reach to test fabrics, stitching, color combos.
00:04:05But we send out their designs for samples to be made.
00:04:09This was Delaney's assistant's desk.
00:04:13She didn't even take her personals.
00:04:14The tantrum I saw earlier?
00:04:16Kendra.
00:04:17I knew she wouldn't last long.
00:04:18She cried on day two.
00:04:19How long did she work here?
00:04:20Three weeks.
00:04:21Better than most.
00:04:22It's the fifth assistant we've lost this year.
00:04:23Janice, payroll needs to speak with you ASAP.
00:04:26Kendra's seeking psychological damages.
00:04:29Not another one.
00:04:30Okay, Delaney has a meeting in 15 minutes.
00:04:32Thomas, we need to clear this before she sees it.
00:04:34Can you...
00:04:35Sure.
00:04:36Oh, what's that?
00:04:37I think my phone's ringing and a delivery's here and the lobby's on fire.
00:04:46I'll get it.
00:04:47You are a savior.
00:04:48The kitchen is through there.
00:04:49Come to reception when you're done.
00:04:51But be quick.
00:04:52Delaney will lose her mind if she sees you in those flats.
00:05:12Oh no.
00:05:14I am so sorry.
00:05:16It's okay.
00:05:17I didn't see you come out.
00:05:18You know what?
00:05:19I can fix this.
00:05:21Come with me.
00:05:27Take your shoes off.
00:05:28Why do I feel like I'm getting mugged?
00:05:31Call the fashion police because I'm saving both our jobs.
00:05:34Delaney cannot see coffee stained shoes on the floor.
00:05:37Are you a new designer?
00:05:38Me?
00:05:39Oh, no.
00:05:40I applied for the receptionist job.
00:05:52I made them two-tone so that they'd have a little bit more flair.
00:05:58I like them.
00:05:59I actually love them.
00:06:07Oh.
00:06:10Oh.
00:06:12Sorry.
00:06:13I was just trying to put them over there.
00:06:15Yeah.
00:06:17Yeah.
00:06:18Addie.
00:06:19Connors.
00:06:20Austin.
00:06:21Strickland.
00:06:23I'm impressed.
00:06:24You're kind of like a rebel.
00:06:26Busting into the design studio like that.
00:06:28I like to think of myself as a creative problem solver.
00:06:32What were you doing over there?
00:06:34Oh, Delaney's assistant quit.
00:06:36I was helping clean up her stuff.
00:06:38How long have you worked here for?
00:06:39Oh, I've known these offices since I could walk.
00:06:42Well, now you can walk around the offices in custom shoes.
00:06:45Maybe you'll get a raise.
00:06:47Maybe you will.
00:06:48Come with me.
00:06:50Um, I actually have to meet with Janice to finish my interview.
00:06:53Oh, trust me.
00:06:54I have someone you need to meet.
00:07:01Wow.
00:07:07Is this your office?
00:07:09No.
00:07:11It's Delaney's.
00:07:12Uh, are you sure we can be in here?
00:07:14Oh, relax.
00:07:15Embrace your rebellious side.
00:07:16It's more fun that way.
00:07:17But she has a meeting right now.
00:07:18What if they catch us?
00:07:20I know.
00:07:21Now it's with me and you.
00:07:24Delaney!
00:07:27You look ravishing today.
00:07:32I don't succumb to flattery, you know that?
00:07:34Yeah.
00:07:35Who is this?
00:07:36Why is she in my office?
00:07:37I would like for you to meet Janice.
00:07:39Who is this?
00:07:40Why is she in my office?
00:07:41I would like for you to meet your new assistant.
00:07:44Addie Connors.
00:07:45What happened to Kipper?
00:07:46Uh, Kipper?
00:07:47Kendra!
00:07:48Yeah, no, she left.
00:07:49Weakling.
00:07:50Okay.
00:07:51We have about a month until fashion week.
00:07:53You need someone reliable.
00:07:56This is reliable?
00:07:57Mm-hmm.
00:07:58Have you seen her shoes?
00:08:00Have you seen mine?
00:08:03Where did you get those?
00:08:05Five minutes ago.
00:08:06Here.
00:08:07Thanks to Addie Connors.
00:08:10You smile a lot.
00:08:11Yeah.
00:08:12Well, how could I not?
00:08:13I am standing in front of Delaney freakin' Diaz.
00:08:16I mean, come on!
00:08:20Okay, you can go now.
00:08:22Before you call security on me, I just have to say,
00:08:24I think you're a genius.
00:08:25A legend in footwear.
00:08:27Wearing your shoes is like putting your best foot forward.
00:08:33Uh, anyway, that's all.
00:08:36It's been an honor.
00:08:38And I love your office.
00:08:40It's good.
00:08:44Yeah, listen, hear me out.
00:08:46She's filled with potential.
00:08:53It's not the end of the world.
00:08:55You still have a job here.
00:08:56Ugh.
00:08:57I just shouldn't have gone.
00:08:59Delaney Diaz is a star,
00:09:01light years away from someone like me.
00:09:03I mean, look at my shoes.
00:09:05I don't belong in Manhattan.
00:09:07I just shouldn't have turned into a crazed fangirl
00:09:11and completely embarrassed myself.
00:09:13At least you didn't ask for an autograph.
00:09:15Did you?
00:09:25What?
00:09:26Did they send you a restraining order?
00:09:30I got the job
00:09:32on a trial basis,
00:09:34but they want me to be Delaney Diaz's assistant.
00:09:38Ah!
00:09:54Good morning, new girl.
00:09:56I see you're dressed for your funeral.
00:09:57Good thinking ahead.
00:09:58Planning ahead would be getting the mouthy floater
00:10:01you best declare in Connecticut.
00:10:03I like you.
00:10:05Delaney left this for you.
00:10:10When does she want all this done?
00:10:12I don't want to ask questions.
00:10:14Why not? What happens?
00:10:15Your funeral.
00:10:26Okay, just breathe.
00:10:28You can do this.
00:10:34Go, go.
00:10:36I had a list.
00:10:38I gave it to Addie this morning.
00:10:51Oh, Delaney!
00:10:53Good morning, how are you today?
00:10:55I don't do small talk,
00:10:57especially not before I've had my iced chai latte.
00:11:03Well?
00:11:04Oh, you want me to speak?
00:11:06Iced chai latte was on the list.
00:11:08Oh, right.
00:11:10I put it right on your desk,
00:11:12and I watered your orchids.
00:11:20Seems you watered the latte as well.
00:11:23Sorry, I can get you another one.
00:11:25And what pre-till have you accomplished today?
00:11:28Where's my dry cleaning?
00:11:29I thought that was a lower priority.
00:11:31I was going to pick that up tomorrow.
00:11:33It was on the list for today.
00:11:36I thought this list was for the week.
00:11:38Well, you thought wrong.
00:11:40Right, I'm on it.
00:11:44And for the food for the meeting,
00:11:46did you expect an iced chai latte ten minutes ago?
00:11:49Yes, I did.
00:11:51Of course.
00:12:02Ooh, Delaney does not like food on the workspace.
00:12:05Great.
00:12:07Another thing I messed up.
00:12:09I have until fashion week to not get fired.
00:12:11I don't think I'm going to make it through this trial period.
00:12:14She already hates me.
00:12:15Just give her a chance.
00:12:17You know, that tough exterior, there's a really good heart.
00:12:19You just got to keep digging.
00:12:20Oh, yeah? With an excavator?
00:12:22Sometimes.
00:12:23Delaney came up in a business dominated by men.
00:12:25She had to be fierce to succeed.
00:12:27You know, you're really good at public relations.
00:12:29And you really do ooze of positivity and charm.
00:12:32So what's your story?
00:12:34How did you see through her tough exterior?
00:12:36Delaney was my mom's best friend.
00:12:38And when my mom passed away, she stuck around.
00:12:43I'm sorry.
00:12:45I lost my mom, too, a few years ago.
00:12:48You really do remember who supports you in that time.
00:12:51So is that why you represent her now?
00:12:53No, my father owns the PR company.
00:12:56And Delaney has been a longtime client.
00:12:59Not without challenges.
00:13:01Especially since she got sued for stealing ideas by her assistant.
00:13:05The guy was disgruntled.
00:13:07It was all false.
00:13:08But the headlines and the rumors remain.
00:13:10Which I think is what hardened her a bit.
00:13:12Oh, yeah. I can understand why.
00:13:14Yeah, well, I'm trying to get her back to the top.
00:13:16But Fashion Week is make it or break it for all of us.
00:13:19Oh, is she in trouble?
00:13:21Franco Schuster is attempting a hostile buyout.
00:13:23He wants to use her label as his discount brand.
00:13:26If I don't get any buyers on this runway show I'm part of,
00:13:29she's going to be forced to sell.
00:13:31That would ruin her legacy.
00:13:35You think more like Delaney than you know.
00:13:39I knew sticking my neck out for you would pay off.
00:13:47What?
00:13:48These are supposed to attract buyers?
00:13:50These are supposed to attract buyers?
00:13:52The meeting's in a few minutes.
00:13:54Don't blame me. I'm just a pretty face.
00:13:59You're not putting on me just yet, are you?
00:14:01No, never.
00:14:02Just give me a few seconds.
00:14:12Perfect.
00:14:13Hurry. Delaney's within striking distance.
00:14:15Grab the numbers.
00:14:16Okay.
00:14:18Here we go.
00:14:21Here, here, here.
00:14:22Yeah, that looks great.
00:14:23Okay, perfect.
00:14:25That's great.
00:14:29Everything is ready for the buyer's meeting.
00:14:33Not bad, right?
00:14:35Adequate.
00:14:36Finally.
00:14:40Please.
00:14:42After you, have a seat.
00:14:48Thanks, everyone. Shall we get started?
00:14:52Now, as you can see, we've done the pump in a very classic style.
00:14:57This holds a wide appeal, I think, to your clientele.
00:15:00We can do that in a variety of colors.
00:15:02The boot we've done in this beautiful calfskin.
00:15:05Again, a very familiar design to help move volume.
00:15:08The boots?
00:15:10I'll take as many units as the manufacturer can produce before next season.
00:15:13Excellent.
00:15:14I will have the team get on that right away.
00:15:17If I may, Renee, just the boots?
00:15:20At this price, how can I refuse?
00:15:28My apologies. There appears to be a little misprint.
00:15:32I am so sorry. I didn't realize that the numbers corresponded with the prices.
00:15:36Well, Renee, we won't waste any more of your precious time.
00:15:40I will personally see to it that you get the correct price list,
00:15:43and we can reconvene at a later date.
00:15:46We're meeting with Franco Chausseur later this week.
00:15:49Are you sure you want to reschedule?
00:15:52I'm sure that you and I can work something out.
00:15:54Why don't we talk a little more in my office?
00:15:57Austin, would you?
00:16:00Right this way.
00:16:05I am so sorry. I was rushing to get things ready, and I wanted to...
00:16:09Excuses, Addie. They're tools of apathy.
00:16:12All they do is ensure that your life remains the same today as it was yesterday.
00:16:16Now, is that what you want for yourself?
00:16:19No.
00:16:39Hey, what are you doing? I said I would help.
00:16:42Four days ago.
00:16:43Oh, I'm sorry. I am so stressed with this new job.
00:16:48Where's Ruby?
00:16:49With Aunt Carla. She got a deal on these Jordan almonds and insisted that I use them in the goodie bags.
00:16:56Oh, well, at least let me help.
00:16:58Oh, how was your first day?
00:17:01Ever heard the saying, never meet your idols?
00:17:03Oh, is she that bad?
00:17:05No, it's me. I'm just not cut out for this job, this world.
00:17:09Hey, you are an incredible designer. This world needs to be cut out for you.
00:17:14I just don't know if I can keep up.
00:17:17Why don't you stick his neck out for me?
00:17:19He who?
00:17:21Austin. He's the PR guy. I ruined his shoes, and then I fixed them, and he stood up for me with Delaney and got me the job.
00:17:27Wow. A real Prince Charming.
00:17:30Is he cute?
00:17:31Is he cute?
00:17:37So what's your move tomorrow, huh? You're gonna stain his shirt and see if he gets you a raise?
00:17:42Or, better yet, he could take it off for you.
00:17:45Claudia? Mother.
00:17:47Yeah, because Scott took his shirt off.
00:17:51No, he works for Delaney. It's too risky.
00:17:55But this is my one chance to live out my dream, and with my idol, no less.
00:18:01I doubt Delaney even wants me back. I'm sure I will get an email from HR any moment.
00:18:16She wants me to pick up her dry cleaning.
00:18:19See? Mean, pretty women are never stupid. She knows she's got a gem.
00:18:25Oh, stop.
00:18:27Oh, I'm so lucky to have you here for me and Ruby while Scott's away.
00:18:31I'll always be here for you. Both of you.
00:18:35Wait, where are you going?
00:18:36I'm going to read your closet because I need a helpfully new wardrobe.
00:18:39Not the new one!
00:18:57Oh, that's mine.
00:19:00Oh.
00:19:01Maybe you need an extra hand.
00:19:03And then some, thank you.
00:19:04Come have a seat with me.
00:19:05I can't let Delaney's ice melt.
00:19:07Right, yeah. Well, I'm gonna show you a trick so it never melts again. Come on.
00:19:14Okay, so what is this trick?
00:19:16Well, all you gotta do is grab a batch of fresh ice on your way out.
00:19:20Voila.
00:19:22Oh, that is very clever. I owe you one.
00:19:28I was hoping you'd say that.
00:19:29I'm trying to get Delaney to one of my events. You think you could help me out with that?
00:19:33Me? I can't get her to do anything.
00:19:36You got this.
00:19:39Um, I can try.
00:19:43No, no, no. Allow me.
00:19:44Oh.
00:19:45Oh, what is this?
00:19:47That's nothing. It's just a notebook.
00:19:49This was a good campaign.
00:19:50Yeah.
00:19:51I wouldn't know. I came up with it.
00:19:53Yeah, when I was in college, my dad invited me to go into one of the marketing meetings.
00:19:57I had the audacity to speak up.
00:19:59They loved it. And that was it.
00:20:02I can't believe that. This ad has inspired me so much. And it was you.
00:20:07And what are these?
00:20:08Oh, they're nothing. They're just sketches. I like to draw on them at my dad's shop.
00:20:13It's just a hobby. I'm not a designer or anything.
00:20:15Well, this notebook says otherwise.
00:20:18I am just trying to survive Delaney's shoe empire.
00:20:20Oh, I get that.
00:20:22For now, you might want to tuck this away.
00:20:24Me and Delaney have some trust issues.
00:20:26She doesn't discuss anything other than with her design team.
00:20:29You should see their contracts. They're ironclad.
00:20:32Just promise me one thing.
00:20:34Don't pitch her just yet.
00:20:36Because if you do, we might never work in the city ever again.
00:20:40Yeah, understood.
00:20:43So what's this event?
00:20:44Technically, it's my dad's event.
00:20:46But I have a few out-of-the-box ideas I want to pitch, which is why I need Delaney.
00:20:50And if you wanted to come by and maybe be her bumper?
00:20:55Her bumper?
00:20:56Yeah.
00:20:57What is that?
00:20:58You know how much she hates the chit-chat and smiling for cameras?
00:21:02I think I can handle that.
00:21:03Yeah?
00:21:04Yeah.
00:21:05I really see you with a bulletproof vest.
00:21:07I think I can handle that.
00:21:08Yeah?
00:21:09Yeah.
00:21:10I really see you with a bulletproof vest and some sunglasses.
00:21:13Well, I admire your unwavering faith in me.
00:21:15I know special when I see it.
00:21:19But in all honesty, though, earn Delaney Diaz's trust and she'll invite you in.
00:21:24And then she'll have you sign a 50-page contract. Easy.
00:21:28Yeah, she doesn't fire me first.
00:21:30We'll make sure that doesn't happen. We'll just get some more ice.
00:21:33Okay.
00:21:38No. Walking on glass would be more comfortable.
00:21:41These all tested very well.
00:21:43With who? Someone with who's?
00:21:47Sorry, is this a medical condition?
00:21:51Oh, no, no, no. I just...
00:21:53Sentences, my love. Sentences.
00:21:55Well, why not go back to the suede insole?
00:22:00Mrs. Hollingsworth loves the suede insole.
00:22:03Mrs. Hollingsworth loves the suede insole.
00:22:06She says that it's like walking on air.
00:22:08I'm sorry, who is Mrs. Hollingsworth?
00:22:10Oh, she's a client at my dad's shoe repair shop.
00:22:16What school did you graduate from? Parsons? NYU?
00:22:19Oh, um, none of the above.
00:22:22But I did take courses at community college.
00:22:25I'll let the team go back to the drawing board.
00:22:28Just take out the millennial collection and let's have a look at the suede insole.
00:22:34Okay.
00:22:40You lost your mind?
00:22:42Because of the insoles?
00:22:44You have me attending an art opening hosted by Robert Strickland.
00:22:47They are notoriously boring.
00:22:49Oh, well...
00:22:50Thank God Austin inherited his mother's creativity.
00:22:53Well, he's invited a lot of press.
00:22:55I think it's a great idea.
00:22:57You do?
00:22:59And how many reporters have tried to mortify you for a clickbait?
00:23:03Wow.
00:23:04Morgan Humphries once took a photo of my skirt tucked into my tights and sent it to the entire 10th grade.
00:23:08I was horrified.
00:23:09I even called my dad to come pick me up.
00:23:11But he told me I had to stay and face it.
00:23:13And then Joey Lieberman ended up calling Coach Thomas' mom and everyone forgot about me the rest of the day.
00:23:20Okay, good.
00:23:21Next time spare me the details of your painfully tedious memoir.
00:23:26Just cancel.
00:23:29Oh, but Austin would be so disappointed.
00:23:31He has one of his out-of-the-box ideas.
00:23:36His dad's been really hard on him.
00:23:38I know it would mean a lot if you could see it.
00:23:45Austin's father is very hard on him sometimes.
00:23:52Alright, I'll make an appearance.
00:23:54Fifteen minutes, no more.
00:23:56But no less.
00:23:57I will let him know.
00:23:58And you will not let any reporters near me.
00:24:01And you will never do that again, please.
00:24:19Addie?
00:24:20What are you doing?
00:24:21Dad was about to call the cops.
00:24:23He thought it was another break-in.
00:24:24I promised I would work on Mrs. Hollingsworth's shoes.
00:24:27I'm so far behind.
00:24:29Well, I can help.
00:24:33No, you're busy enough with Ruby.
00:24:35Exactly.
00:24:36So when I need you to babysit, you're gonna owe me big time.
00:24:41So, I was thinking popcorn and movies at your place for dinner tomorrow.
00:24:46I actually have an art show I have to go to.
00:24:48Oh, an art show. That's great.
00:24:52So, what are you gonna wear?
00:24:54I don't know. Black, I guess.
00:24:57No.
00:25:02You're gonna wear red.
00:25:04I can't. These are Mrs. Hollingsworth's shoes.
00:25:07I bet if you call her and ask, she will let you borrow them.
00:25:10She adores you.
00:25:13Okay, I will call her and ask.
00:25:17They are pretty.
00:25:23Okay.
00:25:42Should we grab a photo on the carpet?
00:25:44If you have to grab for status, Addie, then you don't have any.
00:25:47Where's Austin?
00:25:48I texted him that we were here. He'll probably come find us.
00:25:52Typical Robert Strickland event.
00:25:54I swear I've been in elevators more exciting.
00:25:57Man has not changed in 20 years.
00:25:59Well, Austin says he has something out of the box.
00:26:02Well, time is ticking. Why don't you go get him before I fall asleep?
00:26:05Of course.
00:26:17Austin!
00:26:18Addie, you made it.
00:26:19Yeah.
00:26:20Have you seen Delaney?
00:26:21She's here.
00:26:22Oh, she's over there.
00:26:25Is that a smile?
00:26:26Yeah, that is.
00:26:27Betty Badgley from the Brass Whorl Foundation.
00:26:29That means we have ten minutes.
00:26:31Come on, I want to show you something.
00:26:32Oh, um...
00:26:44So, what do you think?
00:26:46This is amazing.
00:26:51The iconic crystal shoe!
00:26:54Yeah, I knew you'd appreciate that.
00:26:56You've created a very cool vibe.
00:26:58The party should be down here.
00:27:00Yeah, it's the only spot my dad let me have.
00:27:02He probably thought I was going to be out of the way.
00:27:04But this is why I need Delaney.
00:27:06Do you think people will follow her down here?
00:27:08Do you think your dad would announce there's a party down here?
00:27:11We don't want people to think Delaney's just running off.
00:27:18Have you ever heard of a whisper campaign?
00:27:21No.
00:27:51There you are.
00:27:52I hear there's a hot party downstairs.
00:27:54Why are we wasting time up here?
00:27:56Hmm?
00:27:57Shall we?
00:27:58Ooh.
00:28:03Help us out.
00:28:04Okay.
00:28:05Okay.
00:28:06Okay.
00:28:07Okay.
00:28:08Okay.
00:28:09Okay.
00:28:10Okay.
00:28:11Okay.
00:28:12Okay.
00:28:13Okay.
00:28:14Okay.
00:28:15Okay.
00:28:16Okay.
00:28:17Okay.
00:28:18Okay.
00:28:19Okay.
00:28:21A whisper campaign?
00:28:22That is genius.
00:28:23Where'd you come up with that?
00:28:25I saw it in a movie once.
00:28:26Muppets Take Manhattan.
00:28:29But it worked.
00:28:31You are full of surprises.
00:28:45So beautiful.
00:28:46Your iconic shoe.
00:28:48Well, not quite.
00:28:49But yes, there is some beauty.
00:28:57Well, it looks like your father finally found the party.
00:29:02Time to face the music.
00:29:08How come they don't see eye to eye?
00:29:10After Austin's mother died, Robert threw himself into his work.
00:29:14He just wanted safety and stability.
00:29:17Austin, you know, is very adventurous and naturally rebellious like his mother.
00:29:22So I think that's a bit hard for Robert.
00:29:24They clash, you know?
00:29:26He's so talented.
00:29:28It's a shame his dad doesn't encourage him more.
00:29:31Yeah, it is.
00:29:33Anyway, my glass is empty and I don't want to linger in front of my own display.
00:29:38It's a little tacky.
00:29:39Shall we?
00:29:42Where did you get those shoes?
00:29:44Oh, my friend let me borrow them.
00:29:46I wanted to represent you all tonight.
00:29:49Indeed.
00:30:03Excuse me.
00:30:04So sorry to interrupt.
00:30:05Delaney, Austin needs to speak with you over there.
00:30:08Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:30:10Duty calls.
00:30:11Nice to see you.
00:30:13What took you so long?
00:30:15You look like you were having fun.
00:30:17Are you kidding?
00:30:18You almost cured my insomnia.
00:30:19Delaney Diaz.
00:30:21Well, it has been a while since your last public outing and I see we are parading out an old design triumph.
00:30:29Tonight, what happened?
00:30:30Couldn't steal any new designs to show.
00:30:32Oh, stealing designs?
00:30:33Well, no, I would think that's your MO.
00:30:35You haven't written anything new or noteworthy since the last time you falsely accused me.
00:30:39It is quite noteworthy that Franco Chausseur is ready to make your name a hot seller in the bargain basement.
00:30:44Any comment on a potential buyout?
00:30:46My readers would love to.
00:30:49Excuse me.
00:30:50I need your help.
00:30:51Could you just play along?
00:30:54Delaney, this gentleman would like to speak with you about the vintage line.
00:31:02Well, sometimes the past is the present to the future, especially with the signature red heels.
00:31:07Will there be a collaboration? Delaney Diaz and Armando Longs?
00:31:10Only time will tell. That's all I can say for now.
00:31:13Please do give it a scoop first.
00:31:15Anyways, enjoy the show.
00:31:21Armando, thank you for saving me. You know how these reporters are.
00:31:25Oh, I do understand. Listen, I gotta run. Delaney, it was great seeing you again.
00:31:29And I do love these red shoes.
00:31:32No.
00:31:36Did I miss something good or bad?
00:31:38That has yet to be determined.
00:31:40I am so sorry. I didn't know who he was. I was just trying to get rid of the reporter.
00:31:44Well, congratulations, Addy. You put out a candle with a forest fire.
00:31:48You know what? I think I'm done here.
00:31:50Hold on. One second.
00:32:03Now everyone's talking about Delaney Diaz.
00:32:06And we got to a custom reporter.
00:32:08Well done, my darling.
00:32:11You are your mother's son.
00:32:24You did that? Wow.
00:32:27Yeah, tell that to my dad. He doesn't seem too impressed.
00:32:30Well, you are a creative problem solver. Bravo.
00:32:35You want to get out of here?
00:32:37What about the event?
00:32:39Oh, I'm sure my dad has it all under control.
00:32:41Besides, there's something I want to show you.
00:32:47And so I told him, if you're going to be singing that song, you need to be hitting that note.
00:32:51He likes to sing.
00:32:52He loves to sing. He can't hit that note.
00:32:54Are you cold?
00:32:55A little bit.
00:32:56Okay, here.
00:32:59Here you go.
00:33:03Can I get your bag?
00:33:05Thanks.
00:33:06Where are you taking me?
00:33:08Well, this is my latest out-of-the-box idea.
00:33:12Wow.
00:33:14The point is to make it rain Delaney Diaz shoes early in the morning
00:33:18to get the buzz in the busiest laneway of the district.
00:33:23Want to try?
00:33:25Is it legal?
00:33:27Legal.
00:33:28Like littering or something?
00:33:30Well, as long as it doesn't touch the ground.
00:33:32Otherwise, I hope you have a good lawyer.
00:33:36Yes!
00:33:38I bet you can't make it to the third line from here.
00:33:41Over there? All right, here we go.
00:33:44Littering! Citizens arrest!
00:33:47You will not catch me!
00:33:52I still can't believe you pulled over our mandolins.
00:33:56The king of handbags himself.
00:34:01I know.
00:34:02I fully expect a melted chai latte dumped over my head in the morning
00:34:06before security escorts me out.
00:34:09Not before she asks you to remove her vintage shoes.
00:34:12Did you know she designed those?
00:34:14Where'd you get them?
00:34:15They're out on loan.
00:34:17I just wanted to fit in with the people at the party.
00:34:20I mean, they're fantastic.
00:34:22Urban chic.
00:34:23Urban chic.
00:34:24I like that.
00:34:25We should use that in the show.
00:34:27Give Delaney Diaz her edge.
00:34:30Hey, how come she doesn't design anymore?
00:34:35Well, I think she lost confidence.
00:34:39The industry doesn't really take her as seriously as they used to.
00:34:44She had a few flops, lost a lot of sales.
00:34:47She had to transition towards, you know, more basic models
00:34:51for department stores to keep her brand afloat.
00:34:55Was that her idea?
00:34:57It was my dad's, actually.
00:35:00And it worked.
00:35:02I know she wants to go towards high fashion, but she's afraid.
00:35:07Well, she's about to get bought out.
00:35:09Now's the time to take a risk.
00:35:11I couldn't agree more, but we are outnumbered.
00:35:14No one wants to take risks right now.
00:35:17Well, your ideas are great.
00:35:19Social media is going to be buzzing tomorrow morning about the runway,
00:35:23all thanks to you.
00:35:28You should start your own PR firm.
00:35:30Do it your way.
00:35:33But my father owns the biggest PR company in all of New York.
00:35:37I mean, I would love to call the shots, but it's a big leap.
00:35:43I wish I could practice what I preach, but I'm still figuring out
00:35:47how or if I have a voice in this industry.
00:35:53I feel kind of lost.
00:36:01Maybe, maybe we all are.
00:36:12All right, last chance.
00:36:15Time to redeem yourself.
00:36:17Okay.
00:36:19You, um, you're going to bust me out of jail if this doesn't work, right?
00:36:23Like use that arm and throw a grappling hook over the wall or something?
00:36:27Oh, you really need my help.
00:36:29Help me up here.
00:36:35Nice.
00:36:36There we go.
00:36:45I should go.
00:36:48This was really fun, though.
00:36:50Thank you for cheering me up.
00:36:53It was.
00:36:54Um, I will, I will get you a cab.
00:36:58And I hope I will see you at work.
00:37:02I really hope so.
00:37:15Oh, good morning, Delaney.
00:37:17Um, I brought you a little treat.
00:37:19My sister made them.
00:37:20She's serving them at my niece's first birthday party.
00:37:23Sorry, no more of my boring memoir.
00:37:25They're chocolate truffles.
00:37:27Processed sugar, saturated fat.
00:37:29No, thanks.
00:37:30Well, I was hoping they could be an olive branch,
00:37:32but I don't think they're going to be.
00:37:34Oh, that's a good idea.
00:37:36You know what?
00:37:37I'm going to go make some coffee.
00:37:39Okay.
00:37:40Processed sugar, saturated fat.
00:37:42No, thanks.
00:37:43Well, I was hoping they could be an olive branch
00:37:45after last night's little mishap.
00:37:47Little mishap?
00:37:48That's what you call yanking a world-renowned handbag designer
00:37:51into your little rescue mission?
00:37:53It will never happen again.
00:37:54I will not let you down.
00:37:56That remains to be seen.
00:37:57Where's my schedule?
00:37:58Oh, it's right here on your computer.
00:38:06I need you to add a lunch for tomorrow.
00:38:08Of course.
00:38:09Armand Allance.
00:38:10His assistant will be going with details.
00:38:12Make sure you give me enough time.
00:38:14Oh.
00:38:15I mean, oh.
00:38:17I will add it to your calendar.
00:38:39Okay.
00:39:10Excuse me.
00:39:11Sorry to bother.
00:39:12Is that Delaney Diaz?
00:39:13Oh, yeah.
00:39:14It's her latest shoot.
00:39:15Ah.
00:39:16Is she making a comeback?
00:39:17That's the idea.
00:39:18She has a show at Fashion Week.
00:39:19Oh.
00:39:20I thought her days of high fashion were over.
00:39:22She's reviving some of her signature style
00:39:24with suede insoles and everything.
00:39:26Hmm.
00:39:27Do you work for her?
00:39:28Yeah.
00:39:29I'm her personal assistant.
00:39:30I'm Addie.
00:39:31Are you a fan?
00:39:32I am.
00:39:33Is that a part of her new line?
00:39:35Oh.
00:39:36It's the day-to-night pump.
00:39:37So women can go from the office
00:39:39to a cocktail party without changing shoes?
00:39:41I love it.
00:39:42Am I able to see a little bit more of that?
00:39:44Fashion Week will have everything in our show.
00:39:46I look forward to it.
00:39:47Well, I will let you get back to work.
00:39:49Thanks again.
00:39:50Yeah.
00:39:55What did Andrea Walker want?
00:39:57Who?
00:39:58The person we were just talking to.
00:40:00Andrea Walker.
00:40:01Oh.
00:40:02I didn't get her name.
00:40:03She's a big fan of Delaney's.
00:40:04A fan.
00:40:07A fan of a hostile takeover.
00:40:08Maybe she works for Frank O'Shea, sir.
00:40:11What?
00:40:12I can't believe they sent a spy.
00:40:13I mean, they do that.
00:40:14They're sneaky.
00:40:15You didn't say anything, did you?
00:40:17Uh, no, no.
00:40:18I just told her about the show.
00:40:20That's all.
00:40:32Dad, you need to give them more air.
00:40:35Oh, where's Addie?
00:40:36She's supposed to be helping with Ruby's birthday.
00:40:37You know where.
00:40:39I don't like this.
00:40:40You don't like change.
00:40:41She said she can't even pitch her designs at Delaney's,
00:40:43so what's the point?
00:40:45Well, it's a foot in the door.
00:40:47Plus, I think she has a work crush.
00:40:52Hi.
00:40:53Sorry I'm late.
00:40:55Glad you're here.
00:40:56Claudia hates my balloon technique.
00:40:59Oh, how are things with Mrs. Hollingsworth's shoes?
00:41:01She's coming on Monday.
00:41:03Uh, don't tell me you forgot.
00:41:05No, no, not at all.
00:41:07I'm on it.
00:41:08I'm just, um, prioritizing.
00:41:10Over your biggest customer?
00:41:12What about this morning?
00:41:13Where exactly do we fit on your priority list?
00:41:16It's not like you, Addie.
00:41:18Don't worry, Dad.
00:41:19I'll take care of it.
00:41:20Addie has a lot on her plate.
00:41:22I'm still picking up the cake today.
00:41:29Oh, no.
00:41:30Is something wrong with the cake?
00:41:32No, no.
00:41:33I have to go back into work.
00:41:34There's an emergency meeting.
00:41:36It's Sunday.
00:41:37We have Ruby's party and Sunday dinner.
00:41:39Work can wait.
00:41:41You haven't missed Sunday dinner since Mom died.
00:41:44I am so sorry,
00:41:46but Delaney is having a meltdown about the show.
00:41:49But I promise I will be back for both,
00:41:51and I'll have Aunt Carla pick up the cake, okay?
00:41:54Love you guys!
00:42:03I just need you to look past...
00:42:05No, but they even have the same seams.
00:42:07It's not about the pants.
00:42:08Look at the stitching.
00:42:10I came as fast as I could.
00:42:12What's the big emergency?
00:42:16Franco Chausseur launches heels
00:42:18to take you from the office to a cocktail party.
00:42:21Yeah, that black pump is exactly like ours.
00:42:23And we were going to use it for the big finale in the show.
00:42:26We can't use it at all now.
00:42:27Now it's just gone. Poof.
00:42:28We are going to figure something out.
00:42:30They are clearly trying to sabotage the show
00:42:32to lock in the buyout.
00:42:33They even have a better tagline than we do.
00:42:35Why didn't we come up with that?
00:42:37Fashion Week is two weeks out.
00:42:39This is a massive disaster.
00:42:41Listen, we've come too far to let them win, all right?
00:42:48Okay, message Alexander.
00:42:49Tell him to get the design team together
00:42:51to work on a new finale shoe.
00:42:53Addie, will you order us some food?
00:42:55It's going to be a long night.
00:42:57Oh, um, I kind of have to go.
00:42:59I kind of have a family commitment.
00:43:02I kind of have a crisis.
00:43:03You wanted a job in fashion, this is the job.
00:43:18See you tomorrow.
00:43:30Who's tapping?
00:43:31Sorry.
00:43:33So what do you think?
00:43:35Nothing speaks to me.
00:43:36Everything seems very basic.
00:43:38These are our last sketches.
00:43:40I can have the team start again tomorrow,
00:43:42during work hours.
00:43:43Oh, I'm sorry.
00:43:44Is securing the future of our company
00:43:45a little inconvenient for you, Alexander?
00:43:47Not at all. I'm simply stating the obvious.
00:43:49You've rejected every design we have in the office.
00:43:53Okay.
00:43:55I just need to think.
00:43:56Will you gather all the maybes
00:43:58and I'll look at them later, okay?
00:44:03Okay.
00:44:04So, we both know that the maybes are not going to cut it.
00:44:07Is there anything that we can send the team?
00:44:09I'm sorry, I can't call and give them homework on a Sunday.
00:44:12Tomorrow we can start right away.
00:44:14Okay, we just need to convince her of that.
00:44:19That will take a miracle.
00:44:22What?
00:44:26Oh, no.
00:44:27No, no, no, she will not listen to me.
00:44:29She did about the Sueden Sols.
00:44:30I give her ice chai lattes, not business advice.
00:44:34Just please go talk to her.
00:44:35See where her head's at.
00:44:47I'm thinking.
00:44:49I know.
00:44:50I just wanted to see if you needed anything.
00:44:54A miracle.
00:44:58So many so-called experts and not one worthy shoe.
00:45:01Not one.
00:45:03I think maybe you're looking for an external solution for an internal problem.
00:45:10So, this is my fault now?
00:45:12No, no, no.
00:45:13That's not what I meant.
00:45:16But the brand is called Delaney Diaz for a reason.
00:45:21It was built from you.
00:45:24So, maybe you just need to look within for the answers.
00:45:29Well, I haven't designed in years.
00:45:31Last time I did it was a total flop.
00:45:33They said I was out of touch.
00:45:36Well, that was then.
00:45:39Truth is, I wasn't even crazy about that black pump.
00:45:42Now, those red shoes that you wore were some of my best work.
00:45:48My favorite collection.
00:45:49Mine too.
00:45:51Where did you find that inspiration?
00:45:54Well, when I was young I used to sit on the train and sketch.
00:45:57And I would sketch all the people around me from all walks of life.
00:46:02From punks to power brokers.
00:46:05I loved it. I loved all the bold contrasts.
00:46:09Well, maybe that's your answer.
00:46:10The trains, the power, the boldness, the urban chic.
00:46:16No, that's not what our buyers want.
00:46:18Maybe it's what the people want.
00:46:20The people want what the buyers tell them to want.
00:46:22That's how it works.
00:46:24We have to stick to what we know.
00:46:27We call the boys in.
00:46:28I think I need to give the design team a clearer direction for tomorrow.
00:46:34I'm sorry, is there something more important on your phone than my current crisis?
00:46:39Um, well...
00:46:41Addie, prosperity is born of difficult choices.
00:46:45Now, I think you have some talent.
00:46:48But do you have what it takes to be a success?
00:46:52Yes, I do.
00:46:54Good.
00:46:56I'm going to get back to work.
00:46:58Right away.
00:47:12Dad, you scared me.
00:47:14Likewise.
00:47:15Where were you today?
00:47:17We had a crisis.
00:47:19A crisis?
00:47:20The stock market crashing is a crisis.
00:47:22The tsunami is a crisis.
00:47:24What was so important that you had to miss Ruby's party and Sunday dinner?
00:47:28That's family tradition.
00:47:30That totally makes sense.
00:47:32It's a family tradition.
00:47:34It's a family tradition.
00:47:36It's a family tradition.
00:47:38It's a family tradition.
00:47:39It's a family tradition.
00:47:41A totally new shoe for fashion week?
00:47:44Delaney needed me.
00:47:46I'm sorry I missed everything, but I think I turned a corner with her.
00:47:51She said I have talent.
00:47:53Your sister was very hurt today by your absence.
00:47:57I was hurt.
00:48:00Family comes first in this house.
00:48:02Sunday dinner, it's how we honor your mother.
00:48:06I know.
00:48:08I'm sorry.
00:48:09Life's about balance.
00:48:10This Delaney, does she even care about you?
00:48:12Having you do menial tasks all day?
00:48:15Addie, remember what matters.
00:48:21Now get some sleep.
00:48:23We'll talk more about this in the morning.
00:48:37Good night.
00:48:58You look like The Walking Dead.
00:49:00Thank you for the compliment.
00:49:02Is this about the crisis?
00:49:04How did you hear about that already?
00:49:08Ew.
00:49:10She wants me to go downtown for spices? Come on!
00:49:13Assistant world is a thankless one.
00:49:22Code magma. Major eruption. Evacuate.
00:49:27Okay.
00:49:29I can do this. It's not a big deal.
00:49:31It's just Delaney.
00:49:38Addie? Everything okay?
00:49:41You were going to commit career suicide in the lobby.
00:49:43If you need to take a pause, we can work something out.
00:49:46There's no need to involve Delaney.
00:49:48Involve me how?
00:49:50It's ten days to fashion week. Addie just seems a bit overwhelmed.
00:49:54Nothing to be alarmed about.
00:49:56Is that so?
00:49:58You're here early.
00:50:00Oh, I never left.
00:50:02Oh, look. No latte.
00:50:04Your feelings must be hurt.
00:50:07Well, I need to talk to you.
00:50:10I'll just be a phone call away.
00:50:12Certified in mediation.
00:50:18I...
00:50:20You know what? I am exhausted,
00:50:22so another chapter of your memoir will send me to the land of the undead.
00:50:27You slept here?
00:50:29I didn't sleep.
00:50:31I didn't sleep.
00:50:39These are incredible.
00:50:41These are perfect for the show.
00:50:43Well, unfortunately not.
00:50:45Oh, you're crazy.
00:50:47No, I'm going to go with the design team on this one.
00:50:49We have a target market and this is not the time to take risks.
00:50:51Well, some risks are worth taking.
00:50:53Your genius is what launched this company.
00:50:55I think that you should...
00:50:57Oh, is this what you wanted to talk to me about?
00:50:58About running an international brand?
00:51:00I thought that I was going to be learning more around here.
00:51:04Not someone pushed aside to run errands.
00:51:06Errands are the job, Abby.
00:51:08Was that not made clear?
00:51:10I missed my niece's birthday yesterday and Sunday night dinner.
00:51:13And I haven't missed a dinner since my mom passed.
00:51:17Look, that's a hard choice. I'm sorry.
00:51:19But it happens.
00:51:21This isn't me. I believe in balance.
00:51:23I think I can still be myself and hold on to what counts most.
00:51:26You should go home.
00:51:28Abby.
00:51:31Right now? I mean, I was...
00:51:33Go home. I will have Janice call you when it's time to come back.
00:51:39Okay, fine.
00:51:42I'll leave.
00:51:59Surprise!
00:52:01What do you think?
00:52:03I'm getting some influencers tomorrow to go take some pictures in it.
00:52:07Just to make a bit more noise on the socials.
00:52:10It's so fun.
00:52:12I love it.
00:52:14You know, you're my inspiration.
00:52:16I am?
00:52:18Yeah. I mean, you're my inspiration.
00:52:20You're my inspiration.
00:52:22You're my inspiration.
00:52:24You're my inspiration.
00:52:26You're my inspiration.
00:52:28I mean, your red pumps.
00:52:30It's got everyone talking about how fun and provocative Delaney Diaz shoes were.
00:52:34It's R.
00:52:36Hey.
00:52:38You wanna try it on?
00:52:40Yeah.
00:52:42You know, this store never really allowed me to have interactive displays, but, you know.
00:52:46You can't be tamed.
00:52:58You're absolutely beautiful.
00:53:06Delaney fired me.
00:53:08What? No.
00:53:11Yeah. I don't really blame her.
00:53:14I mean, I don't really think I'm cut out for this.
00:53:17I don't want to be ruthless and cold.
00:53:20Well, you're not. And neither is Delaney.
00:53:23Well, she coldly asked me to leave.
00:53:25Uh-huh.
00:53:27So, what are you still doing here?
00:53:32Well, I made you a promise.
00:53:35I don't want to let down the people around me anymore.
00:53:39That's a good quality to have.
00:53:42Well, it's not a popular one. Most people see it as weak.
00:53:46Well, popular ideas aren't always the right ones.
00:53:55This is excellent.
00:53:58I think it'll go viral.
00:54:00Yeah. Yeah.
00:54:02Yeah, my father didn't let me do what I wanted to do on the runway, so I figured I'd do this instead.
00:54:09Well, maybe it'll inspire Delaney. She is sketching again.
00:54:13Really?
00:54:15Yeah. And they're amazing. But she refuses to use them for the show.
00:54:19Well, maybe you got to her.
00:54:21She didn't actually utter the words, you're fired, did she?
00:54:24No. But it was implied.
00:54:29There was a tone.
00:54:31I'm just saying. Hang on. Maybe she'll surprise you.
00:54:37This whole journey has been surprising. I don't know if I can take it anymore.
00:54:42I don't know how you handle this circus.
00:54:45Well, that's what's great about it, right? Life. Life.
00:54:48That's what's great about it, right? Life. Not knowing.
00:54:56But if you got to go, you got to go.
00:55:00But before you do go, I would love it if you made me a clown shoe. You know, just for old time's sake.
00:55:06It would be the most stylish shoe you own.
00:55:08It would be an honor to wear your clown shoe.
00:55:11I should go.
00:55:13Yeah.
00:55:15I have to catch the train and go to my dad's to see my sister before I go home.
00:55:21Well, at least let me give you a ride. Come on.
00:55:27Look at all your gifts. Wow.
00:55:35Hello.
00:55:37Hi.
00:55:39Hello. I'm here. And I have a friend with me.
00:55:44Addy, can you believe this? This is incredible.
00:55:48Oh, hi. You must be Austin, right?
00:55:53Austin. The boy from Rickshaws.
00:55:59It's nice to meet you both. Thank you for letting me borrow Addy. She's been a really big help.
00:56:05What is all this?
00:56:07Please accept my apologies for keeping your aunt from such a special day.
00:56:12Thank you for sharing. Best wishes, Delaney Diaz. P.S. Enjoy Monday dinner.
00:56:18Are you sure that's from Delaney? I thought I was fired.
00:56:22Also, Addy, if you need the time off, Janice will arrange it. I will be at the office at 8 a.m. tomorrow.
00:56:28That doesn't sound like a dismissal.
00:56:31I told you, she cares.
00:56:33Wow. I might be too shocked to eat.
00:56:36Looks like your boss does know how to prioritize. Let's eat and we can get to know Austin a little better.
00:56:41Dad, do not be weird. Please.
00:56:45Let's dig in.
00:56:54You're pretty good with your hands. How are you with the leather?
00:56:58He has a job, Dad.
00:57:00You'll need an extra set of hands around here now that you're leaving us for Delaney Diaz.
00:57:04I will always make time for you. Life's about balance, right?
00:57:08That's my girl.
00:57:10For the best. I should get her to bed. It might take a while. She requires lullabies.
00:57:16Yeah, because Claudia's tone deaf.
00:57:18Oh, thank you.
00:57:20You know what? Allow me. You finish dessert.
00:57:23Oh, wow. Thanks, Austin. You should know, though, that I am also looking for a babysitter.
00:57:29Well, I'm a jack of all trades. I'll send you my resume.
00:57:31Okay.
00:57:45Wow. He's a keeper.
00:57:48Let's see if he can finish this before I start saying I do.
00:57:52Don't worry, Dad. My professional life has enough drama. I'm not trying for an office role.
00:57:57Well, the heart wants what the heart wants.
00:57:59These are fantastic, by the way. Are they new?
00:58:02Some of them. I was inspired by Delaney's work.
00:58:05Oh, this shoe would be so perfect in that collection.
00:58:08It would be a dream to see Delaney Diaz's name under one of my sketches.
00:58:13Hmm. You mean like...
00:58:18Looks right to me.
00:58:20I'll give it a chance one day.
00:58:22Oh, by the way, can I stop by the office tomorrow morning on the way to the doctor just to say thank you to Delaney?
00:58:28Yeah. As long as you don't talk too much. She hates rambling.
00:58:32And not before her morning latte.
00:58:34Um, you ramble, okay? I converse.
00:58:37Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are.
00:58:45Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.
00:58:53Twinkle, twinkle, little star, how I wonder what you are.
00:59:00Up above the world so high, like a diamond in the sky.
00:59:06Lucky girl. Jealous?
00:59:11Is everything okay?
00:59:13Oh, yeah. Everything's more than fine.
00:59:15Yeah, yeah. Claudia can take over. You have a long drive.
00:59:19Thank you for everything.
00:59:21Yeah, you're welcome. See you tomorrow.
00:59:23Absolutely.
00:59:27Oh, don't mind me.
00:59:33Oh, good night.
00:59:37You too.
00:59:43You can keep fooling yourself.
00:59:53And he said, no, my name is Philippe.
00:59:56Oh, no.
00:59:59Sorry to interrupt. Delaney, I have the final designs all ready for the manufacturer and Austin will pick the best one for the press release.
01:00:06That's great. And nothing digital?
01:00:08Please, we don't want a repeat of the daytonite pump. I have printed hard copies for Austin and the manufacturer.
01:00:13Impressive.
01:00:15She really is. Anyway, I'll let you get back to work. Thanks again so much for everything.
01:00:21Ruby loved all of her presents. It was a really special night.
01:00:24I do like to take care of what matters.
01:00:28A latte machine has arrived.
01:00:31And speaking of which, Addy, could you please see to that?
01:00:33Here, would you take this and I'll meet you at my desk?
01:00:36Take care.
01:01:03Delaney wants you to choose a shoe for the press release. She trusts your opinion.
01:01:24She trusts yours too. See, I told you you weren't fired. I'm glad you're still here.
01:01:29Me too.
01:01:31So, how is the show going?
01:01:34Oh, it is a disaster. My father and I do not agree on wardrobe. I just wanted to make sure that fashion was for everyone.
01:01:41I wanted to make sure that people felt glamorous and powerful when they wore Delaney Diaz, but...
01:01:46Like the crystal shoe on the subway.
01:01:48Exactly. Now I just feel like he's not supporting me, or Delaney for that matter. And if this show doesn't sell, it's all over.
01:01:56Anyway, everything is ready. All I need are the shoes.
01:02:00They should be ready by next week.
01:02:02Good.
01:02:04Make sure you guard this book with your life. Delaney is paranoid something will go wrong again.
01:02:08Sure thing. Are you coming to the party tonight with Delaney?
01:02:11To open fashion week? Of course. And Delaney can't wait to go.
01:02:15Oh.
01:02:17Shocking, right?
01:02:19Well, miracles do happen. I'll see you tonight.
01:02:22Okay.
01:02:26Hello again.
01:02:28Oh, Andrea Walker from Franco Chausseur. Spying again? Want to steal more of our ideas?
01:02:35I happen to live on this block, and this is actually my favorite coffee shop. And for the record, we didn't take your shoe concept.
01:02:41We had one in the works, and we just happened to release it first.
01:02:44You used my words.
01:02:46I told Franco about you. How would you like to come work with us?
01:02:50Tempting, but no. I work for Delaney.
01:02:52If all goes to plan, then Delaney will be under our company. I'm trying to help you out here.
01:02:58Secure you a seat on the lifeboat when her ship inevitably goes down.
01:03:01Well, when our show goes well, the ship will keep sailing.
01:03:04It would take a miracle.
01:03:06Our door is open. Think about it.
01:03:10Oh!
01:03:14Okay, get me a glass of peanut, please, and then we'll slip out the back.
01:03:18No, people want to see you. You have to linger a little bit. It's good for the brand.
01:03:22You sound like Austin. Did he send out the press release?
01:03:26Oh, let me check. He said he was going to send it out before the show.
01:03:29I'm not sure.
01:03:31I don't know.
01:03:32It's good for the brand.
01:03:34You sound like Austin. Did he send out the press release?
01:03:37Oh, let me check. He said he was going to send it out before the party.
01:03:40You know what? Never mind. Wine first.
01:03:42And can you get me a big glass? I need something I can hide behind.
01:03:45Yes, thank you.
01:03:51Glass of red, please.
01:04:03Delaney, hi. I saw your press release.
01:04:06I'd love to get your take on the old design.
01:04:09It certainly is a departure from the boring, safe designs you've been putting out lately.
01:04:13It has the fashion bloggers in quite the uproar.
01:04:15Well, I didn't design that shoe.
01:04:17Now, a good reporter would know to check his facts.
01:04:20But then again, we're talking about you.
01:04:22Yeah, the signed sketch and press release stating you designed the shoe states otherwise.
01:04:27Here's my headline.
01:04:28Aging fashion icon is up to her old tricks again.
01:04:31Stealing designs and releasing them under her own name.
01:04:34This sad story will surely go viral.
01:04:38Excuse me.
01:04:43Delaney, you're needed for a photo right now.
01:04:46What are you insinuating here?
01:04:48Sorry, Delaney. I'm going to need this back so I can tweet about my latest scoop, if you don't mind.
01:04:51Come on. I don't...
01:04:53What's he talking about?
01:04:55It's okay.
01:04:57No, it's not okay.
01:04:59This is a disaster, Addie.
01:05:01That crap is probably already all over social media.
01:05:03Hashtag Delaney steals again.
01:05:05But it isn't true.
01:05:07It doesn't matter. The first lie wins, don't you understand?
01:05:09How did this even happen?
01:05:11I swear, when I find out who did it, I am going to destroy them.
01:05:13Their business, their home, their family.
01:05:15Family?
01:05:17Yes. I need to hit them where it hurts the most.
01:05:19I'm about to lose everything that matters to me.
01:05:21My reputation, my entire life, Addie.
01:05:24Everything.
01:05:26I want you to gather everyone on the team in the conference room, 7am, sharp.
01:05:30No exceptions.
01:05:32Yes.
01:05:34I could kill them.
01:05:39It's a simple question.
01:05:41Where did this shoe come from?
01:05:43Who designed it?
01:05:46It's new to me, but a very stylish shoe.
01:05:49I wish I could take credit.
01:05:51Have you asked Austin?
01:05:53Yes.
01:05:55He says that it was in the book.
01:05:57He's stopping by the manufacturer today to see if there is some kind of mix-up.
01:06:00What if he put it in there?
01:06:02Not possible.
01:06:04An up-and-coming PR guy desperate to save your brand and make his mark?
01:06:08Their motto is, all press is good press.
01:06:11No, there's no way.
01:06:13Austin would never put me in this position.
01:06:15Well, if there's a positive, your name is all over social media.
01:06:18Yes, it certainly is.
01:06:21You know, they are comparing this beautiful shoe to our safe designs.
01:06:26They are talking about the rest of our line. That's a good thing.
01:06:29It's not a favorable comparison, Alexander.
01:06:31You didn't steal anything, Delaney.
01:06:33I'm sure this will all get cleared up before the show.
01:06:35Just give it a little bit more time.
01:06:37The story is out. I would need a time machine.
01:06:40No, I can't risk another public humiliation.
01:06:45Cancel the show.
01:06:47No, don't do that. You have to keep fighting.
01:06:49The fight is over, Addie, and we lost.
01:06:52If we get any more backlash, our stock is going to plummet.
01:06:56Now, Chausseur may want to put me in a bargain basement,
01:06:59but I won't let them purchase us at bottom dollar.
01:07:04No.
01:07:06We're done here.
01:07:08Go home.
01:07:14Okay.
01:07:16Get the team together.
01:07:17Think about anything that could have got the shoe in that package, okay?
01:07:20We cannot cancel the show.
01:07:36There you are.
01:07:40Take care.
01:07:42Connor, shoe repair.
01:07:44Hey, it's me.
01:07:45Hey, Addie. How's work?
01:07:47You left so early this morning.
01:07:49It's terrible.
01:07:51My sketches got into the final design, and Austin used it for the press release.
01:07:54Because he thought they were Delaney's designs.
01:07:56That's great news.
01:07:58Oh, no, it's not. Delaney was outed by a reporter for stealing it.
01:08:01So tell her it's yours.
01:08:03How?
01:08:05She'll think I did it on purpose, and she's on a war pass.
01:08:07She threatened my career, our family.
01:08:09I can't have Dad's shop getting taken out for this.
01:08:12She'll understand. I know her.
01:08:13You do not know Delaney's wrath.
01:08:15Thing is, I don't even know how the sketches got in there.
01:08:18Um, I maybe do.
01:08:22What?
01:08:24No, Claudia, you didn't.
01:08:26I just, I wanted to help you out.
01:08:28You know, you are so talented, and people need to see it.
01:08:32You're welcome.
01:08:34No, no, this isn't a good thing.
01:08:36She's going to lose everything.
01:08:38She canceled the runway show.
01:08:40It was her last chance at keeping Franco Chausseur from buying her out.
01:08:41Wow, I didn't know.
01:08:44I am so sorry. What can I do? Do you want me to call Delaney?
01:08:47No, no, no, no. Absolutely not.
01:08:49Austin is on his way here now, and I'll keep you posted, okay?
01:08:53Okay.
01:08:55Bye.
01:09:08Austin Strickland.
01:09:10You have quite the PR disaster on your hands.
01:09:13Thanks for the update. I wasn't aware.
01:09:15You know, when I offered Addie a job,
01:09:17I didn't expect her to make it easier for our acquisition.
01:09:20Franco may promote her before she even starts.
01:09:22What are you talking about?
01:09:24She's not only talented, but ambitious.
01:09:27Slipping in her own design?
01:09:29Tell me, were you in on it too?
01:09:32Because if so, we may have a job offer for you as well.
01:09:34Austin.
01:09:36I have something I have to tell you.
01:09:38Oh, no need, no need. Andrew told me everything.
01:09:40How could you?
01:09:42What?
01:09:44Slipping in your design like that,
01:09:46backstabbing Delaney, myself,
01:09:48after all that talk about not being cutthroat,
01:09:50you are ruthless.
01:09:52Austin, that's not what happened.
01:09:54It's a beautiful shoe.
01:09:56It's honestly too bad that I won't be able to wear it anymore.
01:09:58I'm sorry.
01:10:00I'm sorry.
01:10:02I'm sorry.
01:10:03Andrew, it's honestly too bad
01:10:05that it won't be a fashion week.
01:10:07Well, you can bring your designs to the office.
01:10:09I know that Franco is very excited to see them.
01:10:11We'll see you then.
01:10:13So you really found your place.
01:10:15Well played.
01:10:17Austin.
01:10:19Austin.
01:10:34How'd you know I was here?
01:10:36Your mom always brought you here
01:10:38and you had a bad day at school, so.
01:10:41Claudia told you?
01:10:49So what happens next?
01:10:52I know Claudia was just trying to help.
01:10:55And I'm sure Austin has told Delaney
01:10:57that she's not the only one
01:10:59who needs help.
01:11:01And I'm sure Austin has told Delaney
01:11:05you just worked so hard.
01:11:08I can't believe it's going to end like this.
01:11:11And the worst part is
01:11:13everyone thinks I did it on purpose.
01:11:15Like I'm some malicious traitor.
01:11:18You're not.
01:11:20And you're not a quitter.
01:11:22I don't really have many other options.
01:11:25Yes, you do.
01:11:27Get back up and you fight.
01:11:28Never give up.
01:11:30You know you belong there.
01:11:32Show them.
01:11:34Show it to yourself.
01:11:36No, it's over.
01:11:38Show's canceled.
01:11:40Show's Sears buying the company.
01:11:43Did they buy the company today?
01:11:45No.
01:11:47Soon.
01:11:49Show's been canceled.
01:11:51Got to be uncanceled.
01:11:53Today, maybe?
01:11:54Well, we do still have the space booked.
01:11:58When you were young,
01:12:00you used to build these wonderful towers
01:12:02with your mama's shoes.
01:12:04Remember that?
01:12:06Yeah.
01:12:08Claudia loved knocking them over.
01:12:10Remember what your mother told you?
01:12:12Just because it fell apart
01:12:14doesn't mean it can't be rebuilt.
01:12:16Exactly.
01:12:18You really think I can fix it?
01:12:20I think you can do anything.
01:12:25Please don't take that down.
01:12:29You got some guts showing up here, huh?
01:12:32I should call security.
01:12:34I know what you're thinking,
01:12:36but there has been a big misunderstanding.
01:12:38Save it, Addie.
01:12:40I'm really not interested.
01:12:42I am trying to save the company,
01:12:44and I think I know how.
01:12:46What are you, a double agent now?
01:12:48You going to bring Show's Sears secrets to me?
01:12:51Yes.
01:12:52They offered me a job,
01:12:54but I turned it down.
01:12:56Although I have questioned myself
01:12:58every step of the way,
01:13:00and you haven't made it very easy,
01:13:02I know I belong here.
01:13:04Well, that is touching.
01:13:06Is that why you submitted
01:13:08your design under my name?
01:13:10I didn't.
01:13:12Then how did it get there, Addie?
01:13:14I have a very loving family
01:13:16who thought they were helping me out.
01:13:18Claudia slid my design into the book.
01:13:20She wanted you to see my work.
01:13:22I didn't think it would escalate like this.
01:13:24It was a very big mistake,
01:13:26but I think something good can come of this.
01:13:28The show's canceled, Addie.
01:13:30It's over.
01:13:32Show's Sears is already working on the paperwork
01:13:34for the buyout.
01:13:36I mean, the curtain is falling.
01:13:38But we can do the show.
01:13:40We still have the space.
01:13:42Except we don't have any shoes.
01:13:44I had the manufacturer throw them all out.
01:13:46Why?
01:13:48Because they're insignificant.
01:13:50You know, the hardest part about this
01:13:52is starting to get excited about me again.
01:13:55Except it wasn't me at all.
01:13:57And when they found out the truth,
01:13:59well, it just confirmed what they already believe.
01:14:02Delaney Diaz is a husband.
01:14:04I always knew
01:14:06a Delaney Diaz shoe could get you
01:14:08where you needed to go,
01:14:10no matter the circumstance.
01:14:12Well, I appreciate your passion,
01:14:14but you are overlooking
01:14:16one very significant detail.
01:14:18No shoes.
01:14:20No shoes.
01:14:22These.
01:14:24These are shoes you can conquer the world in.
01:14:27This is what the people want.
01:14:33Well, that may well be, but no, no.
01:14:36You're wrong.
01:14:38The public won't show up for me, not anymore.
01:14:40Thanks to Jacob.
01:14:42You are tough.
01:14:44But you are smart
01:14:46and generous.
01:14:48We can't give up now.
01:14:50Don't lose yourself.
01:14:52Look, I know it.
01:14:54How do you propose I do that?
01:14:56You show them who you really are.
01:14:59Except the show is in less than 48 hours,
01:15:01and what am I going to do?
01:15:03I can't make the shoes myself.
01:15:05Nope.
01:15:07But I know someone who can.
01:15:13Wow, so you repair all kinds of shoes here.
01:15:16Oh, yes.
01:15:18We don't discriminate,
01:15:20except Franco shows her
01:15:23Okay.
01:15:25We have 48 hours to make these shoes,
01:15:27but luckily we have all the materials
01:15:29and tools to get this done.
01:15:31Thank you all so much.
01:15:33I can't tell you what it means to me
01:15:35that you're doing this.
01:15:37We really appreciated Ruby's gifts
01:15:39and you taking our Addie under your wing.
01:15:41She's the one flying now.
01:15:44Let's get to work.
01:15:47We got this.
01:15:52Let's get to work.
01:16:23We won't go down without a fight.
01:16:25Come and see your vision walk the runway.
01:16:27P.S.
01:16:29Please accept these as an apology.
01:16:31Addie.
01:16:41And of course,
01:16:43the biggest story in fashion
01:16:45is tonight's highly anticipated
01:16:47comeback show by Delaney Diaz.
01:16:49Already it's generated
01:16:50a lot of buzz,
01:16:52having initially been canceled
01:16:54after the revelation
01:16:56of some still unproven allegations.
01:16:58The show is now just moments away
01:17:00signifying that the normally
01:17:02safe playing Diaz
01:17:04is ready to face any controversy head on.
01:17:06Still, people are asking,
01:17:08does she have it in her
01:17:10to win over the fashion world once again?
01:17:21Okay, we're all set.
01:17:23Oh, it's not quite yet.
01:17:25I want to add one more.
01:17:27Oh.
01:17:29I'm sorry.
01:17:31I'm sorry.
01:17:33I'm sorry.
01:17:35I'm sorry.
01:17:37I'm sorry.
01:17:39I'm sorry.
01:17:41I'm sorry.
01:17:43I'm sorry.
01:17:45I'm sorry.
01:17:47I'm sorry.
01:17:48We're all set.
01:17:50I want to add one more.
01:17:52Oh, we don't have an extra model.
01:17:54That's okay,
01:17:56because I want you to walk.
01:17:58Me?
01:18:00So far we've managed
01:18:02to avoid total disaster.
01:18:04Let's not hit the iceberg direct.
01:18:06No, I really think that this
01:18:08might be the right way
01:18:10to clear up any old headlines
01:18:12and also to give credit
01:18:14where credit is due.
01:18:15What are you kidding?
01:18:17Even on a fit of rage,
01:18:19I know better than to throw away
01:18:21a great shoe,
01:18:23and that's a great shoe.
01:18:25Oh, honey, don't cry.
01:18:27I'm not.
01:18:29The compliments from you
01:18:31are few and far between,
01:18:33and I appreciate them.
01:18:35Well, good.
01:18:37Wear them with pride.
01:18:39You're stepping out
01:18:41into a whole new world now,
01:18:43and I think after tonight
01:18:45Austin's not here.
01:18:47Places, everyone.
01:18:49Don't take it personally.
01:18:51He just had to do
01:18:53what was best for his career.
01:18:55Now, why don't you
01:18:57put those puppies on,
01:18:59and we're going to go out there
01:19:01and do what's best for our careers.
01:19:03Okay.
01:19:05All right.
01:19:32They're loving it.
01:19:34Get ready to be adored.
01:19:36You're coming with me.
01:19:43So this is a runway.
01:19:45We gotta strut like we are
01:19:47conquering the world.
01:19:49Walk of fire.
01:19:51applause
01:20:05You came.
01:20:07I had to break in
01:20:09these new shoes.
01:20:11Great show.
01:20:13Well, it's not over yet.
01:20:15applause

01:20:21for you gentlemen,
01:20:23a special treat for you.
01:20:25Coming soon,
01:20:27a new men's line designed
01:20:29by our newest designer
01:20:31at Delaney Diaz,
01:20:33Miss Addie Connors.
01:20:35applause
01:20:39applause
01:20:46Are you serious?
01:20:48What about the buyout?
01:20:50What buyout?
01:20:52Look at all these orders.
01:20:54The show is not even over yet.
01:20:56applause
01:20:58I knew you'd make a comeback.
01:21:00You're not looking for
01:21:02new representation by any chance
01:21:04because I happen to know
01:21:06an up-and-coming firm,
01:21:08Austin Lily PR.
01:21:10Lily?
01:21:12Yeah, it's my mom's name.
01:21:14You really inspired me
01:21:16to hire this client.
01:21:18And you can use the office next door
01:21:20to my newest designer's office,
01:21:22at least until you're up and running.
01:21:24I get my own office?
01:21:26What? Of course you do.
01:21:28You're my newest designer.
01:21:30What do you say, neighbor?
01:21:32I say on one condition.
01:21:34What's that?
01:21:36I get to wear your newest men's designs
01:21:38for our first date.
