Bajillion Dollar Propertie$ (2016–…): Season 3, Episode 1 - Dean's Legacy - full transcript
Dean announces his epic memoir, featuring a foreword by the most deserving broker, and his son DJ (EUGENE CORDERO) arrives to manage Platinum while Dean is busy writing. Meanwhile, Glenn ...
Narrator: Previously on
"Bajillion Dollar Properties"...
Stoffanie: The winner
is Platinum Realty.
Dean: Yes!
Madison: Tonight's Diamond
Dealmaker Award goes to
Baxter Reynolds!
Andrew: Baxter won by himself?
Baxter: I am better
off on my own.
Glenn: I gave up being partners
so that we can be together.
Chelsea: I sort of started
seeing someone.
Glenn: You set us up!
Eugene: There's been a mistake.
The real winner
is Miss Jeannie Marchand.
[ All chanting
"Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie!" ]
Victoria: Sit the fuck down!
Real estate is stupid!
[ Piano playing ]
Dean: I am a man
at the top of my game.
Hello.
I'm doing the talking
at you thing now.
You're welcome.
Oh, I've scaled
the highest peaks.
I've swum the darkest depths,
and now the world
waits with baited breath.
What's next for
Dean Rosedragon?
[ Hawk screeches ]
I have assembled
my Platinum minions
to reveal the answer.
Good morning, brokers.
I have a speech.
Now that I have won
the Diamond Dealmaker
and achieved
my dream of tog,
what is there left
for me to do?
I have climbed every mountain,
stood at the top of it,
looked down and said,
"You're all losers."
My imperative is to leave
behind my story
that others may learn from it,
and perhaps the world
could become a better place?
And so I'm going to write
the story of my life,
my story, told by me,
for everyone to read.
You're welcome.
Now then, the reason
I am telling you this is
because I'm going
to hold a contest
to see which of you
will write the foreword
to my autobiography.
This will be a boon
to anyone's career,
to have your name and words
so prominently placed
in my autobiography.
Amir: All right.
So how are you going to decide
who's going to write it?
Dean: Be quiet.
I will hear your pitches
in my office,
why you should be the best one
to write my foreword,
and then I will
choose the person
that I deem most qualified.
Baxter: Is the foreword
the list of chapters?
Dean: That would be
the table of contents.
-Baxter: Okay.
-Dean: Do you need a refresher
of the parts of books
before you come in
and pitch your foreword?
-Baxter: Yes.
Amir: I never remember
what an epilogue is.
Dean: Everyone, please,
this is an abuse of words.
Now then, while I am immersed
in the task
of writing my tale,
someone will need to
run things day-to-day here
to oversee everything,
and of course, Glenn
has voluntarily stepped down.
Victoria: I don't mind
being the boss, Dean.
That is fine by --
-Dean: Well, it won't be you,
so keep on not minding it.
In my stead,
and in Glenn's stead,
the person who will be
managing things here
at Platinum day-to-day
will be my pride and joy,
my legitimate son, D.J.
Son?
♪♪♪
Victoria: Two Rosedragons?
What the shit is
happening right now?!
♪♪♪
Dean: D.J. is my actual
blood-related son
from my one marriage,
ugh, to his mother, Eglin.
Victoria: But you're
divorced now?
Dean: Yes, thank god.
D.J.: Hey, I'm D.J.,
short for Dean Junior.
I've been running my papa's
Rosedragon Foundation Charity
for the last few years,
but now I'm here doing this,
and I'm stoked.
[ Laughs ]
Dean: The Rosedragon Foundation
helps many, many people,
the most important
of those people being me.
D.J.: You may not have met me,
but I feel like I know each
and every one of you already.
-Victoria: Mm.
-D.J.: I'm going to approach
managing Platinum
as I did the jungles of Laos --
study the terrain,
learn the culture.
Andrew.
-Andrew: Hi.
D.J.: You won the Coney Island
Hot Dog Eating Contest,
didn't you?
Andrew: I came in first place.
D.J.: First place, yeah.
That means you won it.
-Andrew: Holy shit.
-D.J.: You didn't know you won?
Andrew: They gave me a blue
ribbon, and I was like, "Oh."
-D.J.: That means you won, bud.
-Andrew: That's great news.
Baxter: You know,
they also give a blue ribbon
to the fattest pig
at the fair, too,
so maybe it was a mistake.
Andrew: I really want
to punch Baxter
in his stupid
double-crossing eyebrows,
but not in front of D.J.
D.J.: I'll be meeting
individually
with everybody here,
just making sure
that everybody's energy
is there and with me,
and we're going to make Platinum
just an even better company
as Papa
is writing his book.
Victoria: Oh.
Dean: Wonderfully said, son.
Chelsea: Whoo!
Victoria: So, this means
we won't have to ever
see Glenn again, correct?
D.J.: Oh, no.
Where is Glenn?
Dean: Well, Glenn's
going through
a bit of a phase right now.
♪♪♪
Amir: Since the Diamond
Dealmakers,
Glenn has become very "emo."
Yes, I'm serious.
Chelsea: His office
looks insane,
like it was decorated
by a love-sick teen vampire.
-Victoria: Awful.
-Chelsea: It's gross.
-Victoria: The worst.
-D.J.: That's my bro
from a different mo and po.
-Dean: Victoria.
Chelsea: Your bro from a what?
-D.J. Different mo and po.
-Dean: It's an expression.
Chelsea: Different parents
entirely?
-Dean: It's an expression.
-Chelsea: So as just a friend?
-Dean: Yes. They are unrelated.
-Andrew: Mo means mother.
D.J.: Or Moesha.
Amir: I'm putting on
a brave face,
but I've been in a sales slump
since the Diamond Dealmakers.
I will be fucking Chelsea
and, at the same time,
fucking you.
Since then, I've had
to downsize a bit.
A lot actually.
I'd say I've downed
all the sizes,
and now I'm living
in my Porsche.
Chelsea: Karma's a bitch.
Uber rejected him,
too many complaints.
But he started his own
knockoff ride-share service
called "Yahg-Uber".
[ Laughing ]
Amir: I'm headed to
the Pacific Palisades
to meet my new client, Stevion.
He's ready to buy,
and I'm ready to sell.
Stevion is in a rush
and only has an hour.
But he should budget
some extra time,
because after he
sees this house,
he's going to shit his pants.
This place was built
in the early 1920s,
same outside bones,
inside, completely renovated.
You're gonna fall in love
with this place.
I swear it.
You just got to see it.
I'm going to get you in here.
I'll get you out right away.
-Stevion: I've got an hour.
-Amir: That's all I need.
-Stevion: Let's go.
Amir: Let me just find the right
key, and we will be good to go.
Stevion: Those are the keys?
Amir: Most of these
are gym keys.
I belong to a lot of gyms.
You work out?
-Stevion: What? No.
-Amir: Yeah, sure.
It's a lot of unmarked keys
to go through.
But my luck's got
to change sometime.
Stevion, what kind
of name is that?
-Stevion: It's from New Zealand.
-Amir: Oh, yeah?
Is that where
the accent is from?
-Stevion: Well, my whole body.
-Amir: Oh.
-Stevion: Yeah.
-Amir: Yeah.
Stevion: You're gonna
go through each key?
Amir: Uh, yeah, we're almost --
we're almost there.
Uh...
Which, uh --
Stevion: The keys
are falling off there.
Amir: No, that's okay.
That's okay.
You guys actually eat kiwis
a lot or is that just a rumor?
Stevion: Kiwi fruit,
not the bird.
It's a bird.
-Amir: Oh, is there a bird?
Stevion: Yeah. That's what
we named after.
Amir: No way. Tell me --
tell me about that.
Stevion: Well,
it's flightless.
You've just reminded me,
I've got a flight to catch.
So...
No, that's not it.
Try another one.
-Amir: Okay.
Stevion: That one didn't work.
I can tell that
one's not gonna work.
Keep trying, you're doing well.
Amir: Thank you.
Stevion: And you've got
45 minutes now.
Amir: Hey, I know
how minutes work. Okay?
Stevion: Yeah.
They diminish.
Amir: Yeah. Yeah.
But, um...
Stevion: Like your chances
of selling me this house,
because I've got to fly.
-Amir: I know.
Stevion: I've got
to go very shortly.
Amir: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
None of these keys are working.
I got to call the owner.
-Stevion: Come on, come on,
come on, come on, come on,
come on, come on, come on,
come on, come on,
come on, come on, come on.
Amir: Hello?
Hello, Tanye.
Do you have
a spare key anywhere?
Okay.
Okay.
Yes. Uh...
Okay.
Great. Thanks.
Bye.
Um, one of the rocks.
One of the rocks.
Stevion: Okay, great.
Oh, they're always
under the rock, classic.
Nope. Nope.
Nope.
-Amir: Okay.
-Stevion: Nope.
Why would you put a key under
there? It's stupid.
Fake rock.
All right.
Amir: Oh, it's on.
Sales slump?
You're out of here!
Stevion, welcome
to your new home.
Stevion: Ah,
it's another door.
Sorry, I'm out of here.
-Amir: No, no, no, no!
Wait, wait. Stevion, please,
this key might work.
Stevion: Okay, look,
I really want this place.
If I can put one foot
through that doorway,
I guarantee I will buy it. Okay?
-Amir: Okay.
Stevion: Come on!
What's happened?
Amir: It's blocked
by furniture.
Stevion: That's it.
No. I'm out of here.
Amir: No! No!
Stevion.
Stevion: You think I've got time
for this shit, mate?
I told you.
I've got to fly.
Amir: You're flying the plane?
I thought kiwis don't fly.
-Stevion: Oh!
You think I haven't heard
that joke before, you dickhead!
Amir: I get it.
You're a fucking pilot.
Stevion: A successful pilot!
Amir: It's not the '80s anymore.
You guys aren't cool.
You're like a bus driver
in the sky.
Stevion: Oh, really? You don't
know what I'm flying.
You don't know
the type of plane.
Amir: What are you flying?
Stevion: A Concord,
motherfucker.
Amir: They don't fly
Concords anymore.
Stevion: They're back, bitch.
Mm.
Amir: Fuck!
Ah!
Aah!
[ Sobbing ]
I lost the sale.
Hey, Tanye.
Did you know there was
a hole in that second door?
In the window, yeah.
Victoria: Yeah.
I was humiliated
at the Diamond Dealmakers.
But that's in the past,
and I've made peace with it.
[ Alarm blaring ]
I hate you, Jeannie!
This is my year!
D.J. may have called me
into his office,
but I'm about to make him
putty in my hands.
D.J.: I just want to meet
everybody, just so...
You know, it's part --
-Victoria: Well, here I am.
Can I just tell you
that I love your desk?
-D.J.: Oh!
-Victoria: I love all this.
Oops.
My God, I just--
I dropped all those pens.
-D.J.: I know.
Victoria: What am I going
to do with all these?
What am I going to do
with all these pens?
-D.J.: Um, you're going to --
-Victoria: All these pens.
D.J.: You're going
to put them back.
Victoria: Here's one pen.
Can you grab it?
-D.J.: You can have it.
-Victoria: Can you get this pen?
-D.J.: You can have it.
-Victoria: Don't you want it?
Take it with your mouth.
-D.J.: Take it with -- No.
Victoria: Take it
with your mouth.
D.J.: Victoria,
you don't have to do this.
Victoria: Okay. Oh, great.
Like father, like son.
D.J.: Why are you doing this?
Victoria: Why am I --
Why am I doing what?
D.J.: This whole thing, why --
why are you doing this?
Victoria: Years of positive,
you know, male reinforcement.
What?
-D.J.: I want the real Victoria,
the smart, strong, fierce woman
that is behind all of this.
-Victoria: Oh.
D.J., let me
stop you right there.
-D.J.: Okay.
-Victoria: This is all real.
-D.J.: No.
-Victoria: Okay?
I was born with this,
and, believe me,
sometimes it comes to bite me
in the ass.
D.J.: Right.
Victoria: But I have used it
the way God wanted me to use it.
D.J.: Right.
But then --
Victoria: And I get
that every part of me,
from head to toe, is perfection.
But at least I'm not
letting it go to waste.
I show it when I can.
I give it to those
who deserve it,
and I make sure
that people realize
what a burden
it is to look like this.
Well, I did it.
I sexually hypnotized D.J.,
and now I can get him
to do my bidding.
D.J.: Ugh! I'm glad
we worked that out.
I mean, there's always
one in every office.
-Baxter: Hey, hey, hey.
-D.J.: Oh, hi.
So I'm meeting with everybody,
just to, uh --
What are you...
Baxter: Oh!
What's up?
D.J.: Wow. Platinum is such
a sex-positive office.
Next up, I'm meeting
Glenn in his office.
It's been 10 years,
but Glenn seems like
one of those guys
who never changes.
[ Heavy metal music playing ]
Hey, Glenn?
Uh, mind if I have a seat?
Glenn: I don't know.
Do you mind if you have a seat?
Welcome to the new me.
D.J.: This is great.
I love the vibe in here.
Glenn: Yeah.
Thank you for recognizing that.
I really appreciate it.
-D.J.: I always recognize you.
Glenn: Would have been
nice to be recognized
maybe a little bit more
consistently over the last,
I don't know, 15, 17 years.
D.J.: I know.
It would have been great, right?
Dean: I'm most proud of how
I've been able
to keep my legitimate
and illegitimate sons apart
all these years.
Glenn: I was texting you
and saying,
"Hey, I'm gonna be home
for Christmas,"
and then you'd be like,
"No, Papa's sending me
away to Seattle."
D.J.: Yeah.
Papa loved sending me
away over the holidays.
I don't know what it was.
He said, for that Seattle one,
for Christmas,
he wanted to give me rain?
Dean: But I have
brought them together now
because I thought it would make
an interesting chapter
in my book.
D.J.: Whoa.
You look like a fancy hawk.
Glenn: Thanks.
D.J.: I hope that
we can work together,
and I'm not trying
to fill your shoes.
In fact, I got boots on.
Glenn: I'm not one
to throw stones
while living in a glass house,
but those boots
are a bad look.
D.J.: You're not the first
person to say that, but I'm --
Glenn: If you continue
to wear them...
-D.J.: Yes?
-Glenn:...I want you to know
that at least
one person in every room
that you're in is going to think
they're ridiculous.
D.J.: Okay. But can I tell you
something about life?
Glenn: Enlighten me.
D.J.: It's ridiculous.
Glenn: Oh.
You think I don't know?
Do you want to hear
some of my poetry?
D.J.: Sure.
Glenn: Here's a good one.
[ Clears throat ]
"So what is the point
of living today?
You just have to do
what other people say.
Life is the Matrix.
Goddess, how I hate this.
I wish it would
all just wash away."
D.J.: Whoa.
I haven't reached him yet,
but he sees that
I'm throwing him the rope,
the rope of friendship.
Baxter: Andrew's still got
his thong in a bunch
about the Diamond Dealmakers.
-Andrew: Ah!
-Baxter: Ah!
Both: Aah!
Victoria: No. I'm walking
through a Planet Hollywood.
Andrew: Baxter broke
the bro code so hard.
I can't even say it.
He didn't give me
a shout-out!
Bros always give
each other a shout-out!
Baxter: I'm going, by myself,
to meet a client
at a listing in Venice Beach.
My client's name
is Morningstar,
and she's a celebrity doula,
which is a thing
you can be now.
Doula is a fancy name
for birth coach.
Tons of natural light,
as you can see.
Morningstar: Tons. It makes me
laugh because, as a doula,
I'm so connected
to the elements.
And the sun makes me laugh.
Try this.
This is actually a smoothie.
These are expensive,
so I'm giving you a sip
of that for free.
-Baxter: Oh.
Morningstar: Take it,
take it, take it, take it.
If you have any
immunity problems,
if your vision's blurry,
if you're having trouble
sleeping, if you can't really
open up to the people
closest to you, a smoothie
like this will really help.
And make sure you get
to the bottom
because all the nutrients
tend to go to the bottom.
I mean, that's as fresh
as placenta gets.
Again, this an hour
and a half ago, max.
-Baxter: Huh?
-Morningstar: It's placenta.
Baxter: A baby sac?
One second.
Morningstar: And I like
the acoustics in here. Ah!
-Baxter: Yeah. It's very --
-Morningstar: Ah!
Yeah.
I'm really sensitive to that
because people are screaming.
-Baxter: Oh, yeah.
Morningstar: The baby's born
into that,
and they go,
"Oh, God, the chaos.
Oh, God." You know?
-Baxter: Right.
Well, this is a recent addition,
this wing of the house.
So it's very solid.
-Morningstar: Well, I can tell
that no one has ever
given birth here.
Baxter: I'll do anything
for a sale,
which is why I told Morningstar
we could act out
a simulated birth.
Morningstar:
Plant your arms firmly
as though you're from the Earth,
which you are.
Now what you're going
to do is keep doing
some of those low moans.
Oh, God!
It's happening now, Josh!
Baxter: [ High-pitched ] Oh,
God, it's happening now, Josh!
Morningstar: We don't have time
to get the car, Josh.
The baby needs to be born here.
Okay.
Listen to me, we're going
to do this now, okay?
Baxter: Okay.
Never mind, Josh.
Morningstar: Josh, we need you.
But we don't really need you
because you're not helpful
in this situation
because men to tend
to tense up around fear!
Baxter: Stay close
but emotionally far away!
Morningstar: As you
already have been!
Baxter: This is going well.
Morningstar: Let this act
a metaphor for the blood.
Baxter: Does this much
blood happen in birth?
Morningstar: It's just
pouring out. Often it will.
Now what's going
to happen -- Look at me.
We're going to have this baby.
-Baxter: All right.
Morningstar: Now what I need you
to do is really take
a deep breath
and do kind of a battle cry,
like a...
[Ululating]
Baxter: [ Ululating ]
Morningstar: Okay. Good.
Oh, no!
-Baxter: Oh!
-Morningstar: Oh, no!
Morningstar: Oh, no.
I can't breathe!
-Baxter: Oh!
-Morningstar: Oh, no!
-Baxter: What?
-Morningstar: I can't breathe!
Oh, no.
I need you to push harder!
Baxter: Push harder?
[ Ululating ]
Morningstar: [ Crying ]
Hold me. I'm your baby.
-Baxter: Oh.
-Morningstar: [ Crying ]
Baxter: Oh, no!
It's okay!
My baby. My baby.
Morningstar: Ma-- Mama?
Tell me your mother's name.
-Baxter: Maureen.
Morningstar: Maureen.
You're Maureen.
Baxter: Yeah.
Morningstar:
I'm a baby. Oh, no.
Baxter: Baxter!
Oh, Baxter!
-Morningstar: You don't love me!
-Baxter: No, I do!
Morningstar: You pushed too hard
but not hard enough.
-Baxter: No. No, I -- I --
-Morningstar: I love you, Mom.
Baxter: I love --
I love you, Baxter.
Morningstar: Little kiss
right here?
Baxter: I love you.
I think I can stop therapy now.
Morningstar: Oh, no!
Baxter:
No, Baxter, I got you milk!
I got your milk!
I got your milk!
Morningstar: I want you
to drink it because you my --
you need nutrients.
-Baxter: No, it's your milk.
Okay.
Morningstar: No,
I want you to drink it now!
Baxter: I blew the sale,
and then I blew chunks
of placenta everywhere.
It was not good.

D.J.: Ah.
-Andrew: Hey, man.
-D.J.: Andrew.
-Andrew: Hi.
-D.J.: I just finished --
Andrew: That's my name.
Don't wear it out.
D.J.: Wow.
Last meeting of the day
and it's with Andrew.
And he's a mystery to me.
Yeah.
I just love your energy
around the office, your vibes.
It's just, like, I wanted
to talk to you one-on-one
because you're a real enigma
here, you know?
Andrew: Oh, great.
I'm sorry, man.
We don't use a lot of racial
terms around the office.
You may be one, but...
-D.J.: An enigma?
Andrew: ...I'm not comfortable
even hearing that.
D.J.: I'm not an enigma,
you are.
Andrew: Whatever you say,
my enigma.
I've been to HR more times
than I've been to the bathroom.
D.J.: Man, what
are you thinking?
What's going on right now?
-Andrew: Right now?
-D.J.: Yeah.
-Andrew: Uh, hungry.
-D.J.: You're thinking hungry?
Andrew: Wait, no.
Hungry.
-D.J.: Hungry.
You're hungry for
the next step,
where else you're going
to be in this company.
And you know what?
I'm going to help you find that.
Andrew: No, food,
where I'll get my next food.
D.J.: Yeah.
Yeah.
How are you gonna
sell that next house?
Andrew: Hot dog.
Hot dog. Hot --
Hamburger.
Hamburger with j--
Oh, I'm going back to hot dog.
Oh, Korean barbecue.
[ Chuckles ]
D.J.: I have no idea
what's going on in that brain,
but everything that's
going on is amazing.
You have to know that.
You must be playing
a trick on all of us.
You must go home
every day and go,
"I fooled everybody
at work again."
Andrew: I don't do that.
I do go home.
I've DVR'd every episode
of "Judge Judy."
And I'll turn it way down,
and then I talk for her.
It gives me a feeling
of power in my life
because then, like,
I can make up the case.
And so I can be like,
"This guy came in,
and he stole all my brushes."
And then we'll cut to the girl,
and I'll be like, "No, I didn't.
No way did I do that. No, sir."
Depending on how long it
stays on her, it's a ton of nos.
And then eventually, at the end,
Judge Judy will be like,
"Give me my paperwork, rah rah,
and you pay him $500
for all those brushes."
D.J.: I never put myself
in the position of everyman,
and you play every part
just to see
what the voice is for everybody.
Andrew: When did you get
a window put in here
and are we moving?
D.J.: Great people
are like rainbow.
I think Platinum is a place
I can hang my scarf
for a while and call home.

Dean: I'm meeting
with Glenn to find out
what exactly
is going on with him.
Time for a Glenn-tervention.
[ Heavy metal music playing ]
I could do this all day, Glenn.
Glenn: And I could
do this all night
because I love the darkness.
Dean: That's what we're looking
at here, is the darkness?
Glenn: Yes.
My inner self
coming out in my interior
decorating choices.
-Dean: Target?
-Glenn: Mm-hmm.
Target has a new home
furnishings line by Kat Von D.
Dean: What's that?
Glenn: Are you
talking about this?
Dean: Yes.
It looks like it's a rhinoceros,
and he's crying so much
there's a puddle beneath him
of rhino tears.
Glenn: Very perceptive, Dean.
Dean: And he seems to have some
sort of leathern bat wings.
Glenn: Mm-hmm. So he can escape
and fly away and be alone.
Dean: Where you think
you are right now,
that is not darkness.
Glenn: Easy for you to say.
I took poison earlier.
They were mints.
-Dean: In a box marked poison?
-Glenn: It's a novelty thing.
I saw it at the checkout counter
when I got this wristband.
Dean: I thought that
was part of the hoodie.
Well, this ends now.
Glenn, I know darkness.
You fell in love.
That love did not last.
Your best friend did
something you did not like.
This is life, Glenn.
Let me tell you
about true darkness.
1975, I found my hands around
the neck of a man
I considered my brother,
squeezing, squeezing,
watching the light
go out of his eyes.
But that wasn't
the scariest thing, Glenn.
The scariest thing
was seeing my own reflection
in his dying eyes,
because beyond
the messianic ecstasy
I could see on my face,
I could also see the empty void
that lurked beneath.
That's darkness, Glenn.
And that's why I'll never go
to another Black Friday sale.
Do you get what I'm saying?
Good.
So there's worse things.
Glenn: Okay.
Um, I'll, uh, take a shower,
and I think
I'll wash all this off.
Dean: Sounds good.
Glenn: Thank you for
your frightening story.
Dean: You're welcome.
Anytime, I'm full of them.
Glenn: [ Chuckles nervously ]
Dean: Rosedragon,
you've done it again.
All the pieces are in place.
You've pit your staff
against one another
for a few pages in your book.
Your beloved son has been
installed as overseer.
Glenn has been returned
to his natural neutered state.
And now to set pen to paper
and tell the story of my life.
A new day dawns
over Los Angeles.
My friend, Orenthal,
was in a bit of a pickle.
"Bajillion Dollar Properties"...
Stoffanie: The winner
is Platinum Realty.
Dean: Yes!
Madison: Tonight's Diamond
Dealmaker Award goes to
Baxter Reynolds!
Andrew: Baxter won by himself?
Baxter: I am better
off on my own.
Glenn: I gave up being partners
so that we can be together.
Chelsea: I sort of started
seeing someone.
Glenn: You set us up!
Eugene: There's been a mistake.
The real winner
is Miss Jeannie Marchand.
[ All chanting
"Jeanie, Jeanie, Jeanie!" ]
Victoria: Sit the fuck down!
Real estate is stupid!
[ Piano playing ]
Dean: I am a man
at the top of my game.
Hello.
I'm doing the talking
at you thing now.
You're welcome.
Oh, I've scaled
the highest peaks.
I've swum the darkest depths,
and now the world
waits with baited breath.
What's next for
Dean Rosedragon?
[ Hawk screeches ]
I have assembled
my Platinum minions
to reveal the answer.
Good morning, brokers.
I have a speech.
Now that I have won
the Diamond Dealmaker
and achieved
my dream of tog,
what is there left
for me to do?
I have climbed every mountain,
stood at the top of it,
looked down and said,
"You're all losers."
My imperative is to leave
behind my story
that others may learn from it,
and perhaps the world
could become a better place?
And so I'm going to write
the story of my life,
my story, told by me,
for everyone to read.
You're welcome.
Now then, the reason
I am telling you this is
because I'm going
to hold a contest
to see which of you
will write the foreword
to my autobiography.
This will be a boon
to anyone's career,
to have your name and words
so prominently placed
in my autobiography.
Amir: All right.
So how are you going to decide
who's going to write it?
Dean: Be quiet.
I will hear your pitches
in my office,
why you should be the best one
to write my foreword,
and then I will
choose the person
that I deem most qualified.
Baxter: Is the foreword
the list of chapters?
Dean: That would be
the table of contents.
-Baxter: Okay.
-Dean: Do you need a refresher
of the parts of books
before you come in
and pitch your foreword?
-Baxter: Yes.
Amir: I never remember
what an epilogue is.
Dean: Everyone, please,
this is an abuse of words.
Now then, while I am immersed
in the task
of writing my tale,
someone will need to
run things day-to-day here
to oversee everything,
and of course, Glenn
has voluntarily stepped down.
Victoria: I don't mind
being the boss, Dean.
That is fine by --
-Dean: Well, it won't be you,
so keep on not minding it.
In my stead,
and in Glenn's stead,
the person who will be
managing things here
at Platinum day-to-day
will be my pride and joy,
my legitimate son, D.J.
Son?

I've been running my papa's
Rosedragon Foundation Charity

D.J.: You won the Coney Island
Hot Dog Eating Contest,
didn't you?
Andrew: I came in first place.
D.J.: First place, yeah.
That means you won it.
-Andrew: Holy shit.
-D.J.: You didn't know you won?
Andrew: They gave me a blue
ribbon, and I was like, "Oh."
-D.J.: That means you won, bud.
-Andrew: That's great news.
Baxter: You know,
they also give a blue ribbon
to the fattest pig
at the fair, too,
so maybe it was a mistake.
Andrew: I really want
to punch Baxter
in his stupid
double-crossing eyebrows,
but not in front of D.J.
D.J.: I'll be meeting
individually
with everybody here,
just making sure
that everybody's energy
is there and with me,
and we're going to make Platinum
just an even better company
as Papa
is writing his book.
Victoria: Oh.
Dean: Wonderfully said, son.
Chelsea: Whoo!
Victoria: So, this means
we won't have to ever
see Glenn again, correct?
D.J.: Oh, no.
Where is Glenn?

D.J.: Or Moesha.
Amir: I'm putting on
a brave face,
but I've been in a sales slump
since the Diamond Dealmakers.
I will be fucking Chelsea

fucking you.
Since then, I've had
to downsize a bit.
A lot actually.
I'd say I've downed
all the sizes,

Amir: I'm headed to
the Pacific Palisades
to meet my new client, Stevion.
He's ready to buy,
and I'm ready to sell.
Stevion is in a rush
and only has an hour.
But he should budget
some extra time,
because after he
sees this house,
he's going to shit his pants.
This place was built
in the early 1920s,
same outside bones,
inside, completely renovated.
You're gonna fall in love
with this place.
I swear it.
You just got to see it.
I'm going to get you in here.
I'll get you out right away.
-Stevion: I've got an hour.
-Amir: That's all I need.
-Stevion: Let's go.
Amir: Let me just find the right
key, and we will be good to go.
Stevion: Those are the keys?
Amir: Most of these
are gym keys.
I belong to a lot of gyms.
You work out?
-Stevion: What? No.
-Amir: Yeah, sure.
It's a lot of unmarked keys
to go through.
But my luck's got
to change sometime.
Stevion, what kind
of name is that?
-Stevion: It's from New Zealand.

Is that where
the accent is from?

That's okay.
You guys actually eat kiwis
a lot or is that just a rumor?
Stevion: Kiwi fruit,
not the bird.
It's a bird.
-Amir: Oh, is there a bird?
Stevion: Yeah. That's what
we named after.
Amir: No way. Tell me --
tell me about that.

it's flightless.
You've just reminded me,

I can tell that
one's not gonna work.

It would have been great, right?
Dean: I'm most proud of how
I've been able
to keep my legitimate

all these years.
Glenn: I was texting you
and saying,
"Hey, I'm gonna be home
for Christmas,"
and then you'd be like,
"No, Papa's sending me
away to Seattle."

Papa loved sending me
away over the holidays.
I don't know what it was.
He said, for that Seattle one,
for Christmas,

an interesting chapter
in my book.

You look like a fancy hawk.
Glenn: Thanks.
D.J.: I hope that
we can work together,
and I'm not trying
to fill your shoes.
In fact, I got boots on.

to throw stones
while living in a glass house,
but those boots
are a bad look.
D.J.: You're not the first
person to say that, but I'm --
Glenn: If you continue
to wear them...
-D.J.: Yes?
-Glenn:...I want you to know
that at least
one person in every room
that you're in is going to think
they're ridiculous.
D.J.: Okay. But can I tell you
something about life?
Glenn: Enlighten me.

Do you want to hear
some of my poetry?

Baxter: I'm going, by myself,
to meet a client
at a listing in Venice Beach.
My client's name
is Morningstar,
and she's a celebrity doula,
which is a thing
you can be now.
Doula is a fancy name
for birth coach.
Tons of natural light,
as you can see.
Morningstar: Tons. It makes me
laugh because, as a doula,
I'm so connected
to the elements.
And the sun makes me laugh.
Try this.
This is actually a smoothie.
These are expensive,
so I'm giving you a sip
of that for free.
-Baxter: Oh.
Morningstar: Take it,
take it, take it, take it.
If you have any
immunity problems,
if your vision's blurry,
if you're having trouble
sleeping, if you can't really
open up to the people
closest to you, a smoothie
like this will really help.
And make sure you get
to the bottom
because all the nutrients
tend to go to the bottom.
I mean, that's as fresh
as placenta gets.
Again, this an hour
and a half ago, max.
-Baxter: Huh?
-Morningstar: It's placenta.
Baxter: A baby sac?
One second.
Morningstar: And I like
the acoustics in here. Ah!
-Baxter: Yeah. It's very --
-Morningstar: Ah!
Yeah.
I'm really sensitive to that
because people are screaming.
-Baxter: Oh, yeah.
Morningstar: The baby's born
into that,
and they go,
"Oh, God, the chaos.
Oh, God." You know?
-Baxter: Right.
Well, this is a recent addition,
this wing of the house.
So it's very solid.
-Morningstar: Well, I can tell
that no one has ever
given birth here.
Baxter: I'll do anything
for a sale,
which is why I told Morningstar
we could act out
a simulated birth.
Morningstar:
Plant your arms firmly
as though you're from the Earth,
which you are.
Now what you're going
to do is keep doing
some of those low moans.
Oh, God!
It's happening now, Josh!
Baxter: [ High-pitched ] Oh,
God, it's happening now, Josh!
Morningstar: We don't have time
to get the car, Josh.
The baby needs to be born here.
Okay.
Listen to me, we're going
to do this now, okay?
Baxter: Okay.
Never mind, Josh.
Morningstar: Josh, we need you.
But we don't really need you
because you're not helpful
in this situation
because men to tend
to tense up around fear!
Baxter: Stay close
but emotionally far away!
Morningstar: As you
already have been!
Baxter: This is going well.
Morningstar: Let this act
a metaphor for the blood.
Baxter: Does this much
blood happen in birth?
Morningstar: It's just
pouring out. Often it will.
Now what's going
to happen -- Look at me.
We're going to have this baby.

to do is really take
a deep breath

something you did not like.
This is life, Glenn.
Let me tell you
about true darkness.
1975, I found my hands around
the neck of a man
I considered my brother,
squeezing, squeezing,
watching the light
go out of his eyes.
But that wasn't
the scariest thing, Glenn.
The scariest thing
was seeing my own reflection
in his dying eyes,
because beyond
the messianic ecstasy
I could see on my face,
I could also see the empty void
that lurked beneath.
That's darkness, Glenn.
And that's why I'll never go
to another Black Friday sale.
Do you get what I'm saying?
Good.
So there's worse things.
Glenn: Okay.
Um, I'll, uh, take a shower,
and I think
I'll wash all this off.
Dean: Sounds good.
Glenn: Thank you for
your frightening story.
Dean: You're welcome.
Anytime, I'm full of them.
Glenn: [ Chuckles nervously ]
Dean: Rosedragon,
you've done it again.
All the pieces are in place.
You've pit your staff
against one another
for a few pages in your book.
Your beloved son has been
installed as overseer.
Glenn has been returned
to his natural neutered state.
And now to set pen to paper
and tell the story of my life.
A new day dawns
over Los Angeles.
My friend, Orenthal,
was in a bit of a pickle.
