Bling Empire (2021–…): Season 3, Episode 10 - The One That Got Away - full transcript

In Paris, Christine plays cupid for Kevin and his ex-girlfriend Devon. Kane reflects on big career moves and Kevin celebrates six years of sobriety.

You are the star of Gaultier.

-We might be late. We should get going.
-We have to change!

-We gotta change.
-Shit!

I am excited to bring Kevin
to Jean Paul Gaultier

to experience fashion
at its highest level.

Kevin's in for a treat.

Kevin, do you want to preoccupy yourself
by watching, like, sports?

I don't wanna see them.

-Actually, I kinda do. I'm curious.
-No, Kevin.

-I just wanna see Dr. Chiu's work.
-No, he hasn't worked on me.

-You don't let him work on your boobs?
-My boobs don't need work.



-You are natural!

I'm looking.

Kevin!

Let's get Kevin's thoughts on this.

-Or Kevin can wear it.
-Ooh, Kevin, do you wanna wear it?

-That's a good idea.
-Yeah!

Oh my God. I'm so excited!

-Yeah, that's--
-God, couture and diamonds!

-These are real diamonds?
-Yes!

-No!
-Yes.

Ooh.

-Oh my God.
-Yeah, I think that makes--

-So--
-We see what we miss.

-Yeah.
-Wow. You are expensive today.



You don't know how much you're wearing.
You literally have no idea.

I heard in the car
this is at least $5,000.

-Five thousand?
-I'm gonna kill you, Kevin.

-It's a million euros.
-No.

This is a million euros?

So that's 1.4 million dollars
or something.

Ye… yeah.

-Wow.
-Closer to--

This makes me so happy and sad
at the same time. Is that weird?

-Please don't break it.
-No one's gonna break it.

No! Hey, no. No snapping.

-Christine.
-Wait.

-Big sis, thank you.
-Not that big.

-Mini big.
-Just a smidge.

Wow,
look at all these people, Christine.

-Ready for this?
-Ready.

-Are you ready?
-Yeah.

Christine!

Dude, it is, like, chaos.

It feels like you're almost an athlete

coming out of the tunnel
with all those cameras on you.

You feel like
you should be talking to the crowd,

but you're not supposed to, really.

You're supposed to just stand there
and take photos.

I just keep my head down,
keep my mouth shut, and just walk.

Bonjour!

That's the man himself?

I love Jean Paul Gautier.

First of all, he's a legend.
He's a living legend. He's an icon.

Also, very French,
whimsical, creative, brilliant.

And the Jean Paul Gautier shows
are always so much fun.

-Great to see you.

-Thanks.
-Beautiful.

This is Kevin.

-How are you? Nice to see you.
-Love your stuff.

-How do you like this?
-Voilà, I remember that one.

Yeah!

It was a collection, style, uh,

probably, I think,
like '95 or something like that.

-Vintage.
-Vintage.

What a body!

-See, you fit right in.
-Let's hope.

-Oh, hi, Jaime!
-Hi, hello!

-Wow! You look great! Holy shit!
-How are you?

Hi, good to see you.

The Jean Paul Gautier show
was very intimate,

so I saw Christine right away.

And I said hello,
but she was definitely, like,

looking away and avoiding me,
which I was just, like, whatever.

Next to Christine, I see Kevin.

The moment my sun--
I was wearing big, white fur sunglasses.

I thought I was not seeing clearly,

because I don't know how
that friendship formed, honestly.

It was the most bizarre pairing
I have ever seen.

We'll see you
in a little bit. Yes.

-Nice--
-You look phenomenal.

-I can't really see the show.

Like, who's up there? I can't see.

I've been told I'm dramatic.
This show is dramatic.

The music's dramatic.
The girls' faces are dramatic.

They're extremely tall.
I mean, they're like…

I don't know,
giraffes walking on heels in this show.

I think it's a beautiful collection.
I truly love it. It's very couture.

-Very beautiful.
-Yes.

At the same time, it's very myself.

-And with something else.
-Yes.

-It was the perfect mixture.
-It's good. It looks truly Gaultier.

You spoiled me now.
I can't go to anything less than this.

Meeting Jean Paul Gaultier is pretty cool.

It's kind of like meeting an older uncle
you've never met before

but with better fashion.

-Wild!

-Look at… look at this!

-I'm a couture kid now.

-Kevin!

-Are you excited for class?
-I am! What do you have going--

I booked out
the whole entire cycle class for us.

-What?
-Remember we did SoulCycle?

I think I'm a spinning addict.

Like, I've done over
1,500 classes in four years. Um…

It's so therapeutic to me.
It's like what shopping is to me.

Um, except I'm actually saving
more money.

Do you like my cherry socks?

Oh my goodness, it's so adorable!
He's got cherry socks on!

-Sorry.
-Pop my cherry on the beach.

-Hell, yeah.

-It's been a long…

Many years of no sex.

-Kane, what? That's not good.
-I know.

That's why I do this. That's why
I'm going to a thousand classes.

You have an addiction.

-No, I don't.
-Your addiction is SoulCycling.

You got me in the middle of nowhere

SoulCycling on the freaking ocean
with makeup on.

I feel like
a complete LA person right now.

Like, all I'm missing
is kombucha.

Oh my God, my ass aches.
It's sore already.

One, two.
You got these headphones on.

Let's talk
about our intention.

Intention is to get laid!

You have
so much positive energy…

-I don't think she can hear us.
-…from the sun.

-Whoo!
-It is flowing towards you.

Are we almost done?

-Sorry?
-Are we done?

-We just started.
-Find that breath.

-What?
-We just started.

-One, two. One, two.
-I'm tired.

-Whoo!
-Push!

-It's like I'm giving birth.
-I'm sweating.

This is our first break,
so let's throw our hands up.

-No breaks!
-Get air.

We're Asian. We don't take a break.

Why are you so happy?

I love-- This makes me happy.

-As long it makes you happy.
-Embrace it.

It's good for the body.

-It's good for your soul.
-Okay.

Who needs sex when you have this?

What?

I'm currently single.
I'm just really working on myself.

Like, I'm just working through
my insecurities, you know?

I had a little arm fat the other day.
I'm like, "Should I lipo that?" You know?

How am I supposed to date
when I don't even like my arms?

So you're telling me, like,

no sex at all?

Zero.

I used to chase dating and stuff,
and then it never works.

And I wasn't ready.

-Yeah. I think you should just be happy.
-I think I'm almost there.

I'm happy. You gotta understand, like,

it's not easy.

-Yeah.
-I was overweight for most of my life.

-Right.
-Even when I'm driving a car.

Like, I know I'm not fat, but you know
how many times I pull my mirror down?

-To look at my face.
-You are far from that.

-I know I'm not.
-Yeah.

But you know how many times
I check myself in the mirror?

-Yeah.
-Four times, coming here.

You know?

-Are you open to love?
-Open? Yeah, I'm open.

I can't have you celibate.

-Kane Lim, celibate. Can you imagine that?

A little action doesn't hurt nobody.

Look at the restrooms. I could go
for some action. Let's go there.

-God, not in the bathroom!
-Anyone wants to go in the bathroom?

-No! We can't--
-I could do it!

-No, no, no! I believe you.

One day I could
actually love myself better,

and then we'll see.

I might be as promiscuous as Kevin
or even more.

Let's go!

No, Kane!

Kane, you're the only one swimming
in the water right now.

No one swims in LA.

I can't save you if you drown.

-So…
-Yeah.

We are at the Museum of Baccarat.

Ooh!

In the house…

That's cool.

They've been around
since the 17th century.

-Wow. So nice!
-Isn't it beautiful?

-It's very James Bond.
-This--

-Isn't this incredible?
-Wow!

-It's beautiful!
-So nice!

Yes!

So anyway, I put together
this little dinner for us.

-Thanks! Gabe's gonna be jealous.
-Crystal…

No! We're gonna FaceTime him.

-Really? First?
-Yeah.

Okay, here.

I love the friendship I have with Kevin.

You know how when you're sleeping
and people, like, prank you

and they put your, like, fingers
in warm water and you pee?

So Kevin is kind of

that warm water for me.

When I'm around Kevin,
I'm just comfortable. Is that weird?

So when Kevin opens up about Devon,

the way Kevin talks
is completely different

from the way
he talks about any other girl.

She was kind of the one that got away,
and I wanted to do something about it.

That's what friends are for.

Hello!

Hi!

-Devon?
-Hi!

-Hi, Christine!
-Hello, again.

Oh, Devon.

How are you?

-You guys…
-How did you get here?

Wait. How are you
in front of me right now?

-How did you get here? Oh my God.
-I already know Christine.

Christine.

-He's like my kid brother--
-Thank you, big sis!

Okay, not that big.

So amazing.

Wow. Seeing Devon for the first time
in six and a half years,

all these feelings,

the same feelings
I had for her that long ago

just started to flood back into me.

-Aw, I'm so happy to play matchmaker.
-Seriously.

I was telling her
I wanted to see you again.

I just didn't wanna waste time,
and she's like, "We're here--"

I know, this woman, like, reached out
to me, and I was just, like, "What?"

Oh my gosh. That's so cool.

Seeing them in this moment,

I know for a fact that I made
the right decision in bringing her here.

I have not seen this type
of happiness and joy in Kevin… ever.

Your face got thinner.

I know. It really did.

Mine got fatter.

I got hot, and you got fat.

Where are you taking me?

I bought this property,
a place called Mount Washington.

-Okay.
-I'm gonna give you a tour, a sneak peek.

We are gonna do
some renovations, remodeling.

The goal is to build a portfolio
of real estate rental properties--

-You bought a whole mountain.
-Trying to buy a whole mountain!

You could name it, like, Mount Kane.

-I'd love to. Can you do that?
-No.

Can I be the mayor?

I don't wanna be the mayor.
I wanna be the treasurer.

-I wanna control the money.

Can you imagine? Unobstructed views.

That's awesome that you have
such a big property line.

No one saw that potential.

You should've told me--

"Here lies a faithful friend
and companion."

-Is it Andrew? Kidding.
-Maybe it's like--

-That's mean.
-I know. I'm joking.

This could be a little, like, Jacuzzi.

-Fireplace gonna be here.
-Yeah.

-Think of this as your outdoor dining.
-I love it.

-Thank you!
-I'm proud of you, Kane.

If this sells, it gives me
a lot of… leverage with my dad.

Look, this is my third house
I'm doing successful.

-I just wanna craft my own, like, path.
-Mm-hmm.

I used to be like, "Why is it not enough?
Why are they tough on me?"

-Now I finally understood, you know…

Wow. Hello?

-This is my agent.

Uh-huh.

Who-- Are they credible?

Make sure, 'cause I don't wanna just shoot
like a B film.

I'd rather do porn than that. Yeah.

I got a movie role.

A movie role?

All right, let me think about it.
This is great news. Thank you so much.

All right, bye.

What happened? Tell me.

So I'm basically playing myself.
Sort of myself.

Like, you know, a wealthy Asian person--

Singaporean billionaire.

-Not a billionaire. No!
-Who buys houses, property, a mountain.

-A millionaire, fine. I'm struggling.
-Okay.

-Isn't this good karma?
-People--

I do need to practice, though.

I can help you practice lines if you want.

What if I get, like, a Grammy?
Oh, no, that's singing.

-Oh my gosh.
-Emmy?

-Emmy is for TV.
-What about movies?

-Oscar.
-Oscar. Sorry.

That's-- Let's not jump--
Let's not go that far.

Okay, yes, you might get an award.

-I want you to.
-Yeah.

Oh my gosh.

-Monsieur here. Madame there.
-Yes, correct.

I, um… you know,
I was happy when I saw you.

Your… DM.

Yeah?

When I sent you that message,
I was like, "Uh-oh, she's not responding."

-Yeah, I waited. I was like, "Oh my God."
-What were you waiting for?

Okay, the initial thought
was like, "Do I just…

close this chapter, you know,
and just let us move on?"

You know, like, what is left?

Like, do I want to open up something and…

have a fight about the past, you know?

-'Cause I was kind of afraid about that.
-Right.

What happened really hurt me, you know?

It's like we were so in love one minute,
and then the next minute we have a drink,

and you'd be like
a completely different person.

Out of control, like--
I was like, "Oh my God."

Sounds like I was an asshole.

-No, you were.
-Oh, I was? Okay.

-It wasn't just me.
-Yes, you were. No.

Because I'm like,
"Okay, this is a great guy."

"Why is he allowing himself
to be like this?"

My insecurities really got
the best of our relationship.

Right.

Like, I just knew I needed
to be clean and sober,

get my life back together, you know?

We just-- It was just always so much
of a fight with us.

It was heartbreaking, you know?

Do you feel
like it's different now, though?

From what I see so far--
I still have to get to know you again,

this new Kevin again, but yeah,
your energy is definitely different.

Is this going too fast for you?

I mean, I don't want to assume anything.

But, um,

do you wanna give it another try?

We deserve a shot.

-What do you think about that?
-I missed you.

And now I won't have to miss you anymore.

-Yeah?
-Yeah. I'm really happy.

Dating in LA and being single
for a long time,

I was like, "Shit."

"What we had was special."

It took all the dating
to know how special I was?

-It's not that.

Just to forewarn you,
like, me and Kim did try.

We went on a few dates.

-I was--
-It didn't go well?

That's an understatement.

-Really?
-Yeah.

Come here.

-Ouch!

Shit, there's people here.

Allons-y.

-It means "let's go."
-You have a couch, right?

-I do!
-Okay.

-And a TV.
-Oh, great.

-It's a flat-screen.
-Yes!

-Yes.
-I'm so happy!

-Hi!
-Hello, ladies! Wow, beautiful.

How are you?

-Good, how are you?
-Good.

Thanks for coming!

Kevin and I finally got back from Europe,
so I want to get everyone together.

-We're not the first ones here, are we?
-Uh…

-Kevin's here.
-Oh.

-Yeah.
-Okay.

And also to introduce everyone
to a surprise guest.

From Paris to LA!

Look at this, she brought friends.

-Oh my God, I know.
-I did!

-It's a party of four tonight, guys.
-She always--

No one knows that you'll be here.

-No one!
-Everyone loves Kevin.

-Yeah.
-And everyone will love you too.

I think so too. Except for maybe Kim.

She might get all pissed
'cause that I'm with someone.

-Even though she doesn't wanna be with me.
-Maybe she's in a relationship. Maybe--

-Right!
-Right?

Worst thing would happen is
Lewis Tan comes in.

-We get into a fight!
-No! You don't care about that.

And we realize
that I'm the real last action hero.

-No comment.
-Yeah, no comment.

-I'm just gonna sit back and watch.
-Yeah.

I think he's, uh,
freshening up in the bathroom.

-How are you?
-Hey! Oh my God, long time no see.

I know. So long, right?

What have you guys been up to?

Just… you know me, traveling all the time.

-I do know you. Yeah.
-But what about you guys?

We went to Fashion Week.
It was really cool.

That's nice of you
to take him all the way to Paris!

-I wanted to show him Paris.
-Did you have fun?

-So much fun.
-Did you pick up French?

I do, like, un peu.

-Guess what, I was complimented in Paris.
-What?

-They said I have a Parisian fashion look.
-Look.

-See--
-Aren't you shocked?

-Yeah, a little bit.
-I know, exactly. I am too.

What did you do to him?

-I don't like--
-Let me guess, I've changed.

-I don't like this snobby Kevin right now.
-Just a little bit.

-Hi!
-Hello!

-How are you?
-Oh, green, the perfect color.

-How are you? Good to see you.
-Welcome.

-Thanks. What's up?
-I love the coat.

-Thanks!
-Is it couture?

-It's Chanel, but it's not couture.

-Hi, Kane!
-Hi! You're like a beautiful ostrich!

-Excuse me, Tweety Bird?

My fillers are gone, so…

Hi, Kelly.

Are they really?

No more Botox?

What's Botox?

You mean fillers?

-Are you dating someone right now, Kelly?
-I am.

-Exciting.
-Who is it?

-Kelly's turning red!
-Oh my gosh.

-You're blushing!
-Tell us!

You got so red!

-No, it's the Asian glow--
-Actually, Kelly--

Never mind. I shouldn't say it.

-What?
-I don't know.

-There's no secrets in this house.
-No secrets.

-What is it?
-Nothing.

-You can't do that.
-Who is this man you're dating?

You'll meet him when the time is right.

-When the time is right.
-Time is now.

-Even Kim doesn't know who he is.
-Time is right. Time is now.

-It's not Andrew.
-Andrew? Why?

-No. Kelly's so over him.
-No, no!

Like you're "over" over him?

-Yeah, like over.
-She's really over.

You sound disappointed, Kim.

-I am.
-Really? Why? Does--

-He's really trying to be a better person.
-Yeah.

I wish him the best.
I think he's a great person--

For sure I've been hurt a lot in the past.
But I've finally found love.

-So happy.
-But just tell us is he white? Asian?

-Give us some hints!
-He's a fusion.

-He better be.
-Fusion?

He's Chinese.

Yes!

-Oh, you got a Chinese man!
-See?

-I was right. You just needed Asian dick.
-Yes, girl!

Now it's a new chapter.

-That's great.
-You'll meet him, and you'll love him.

He's just… amazing.

I think I want to introduce him
to the group slowly.

And, uh, yeah…

I'm… I'm excited to see where it goes.

-Anybody of yours, we will welcome.
-Thank you, Kevin.

-I will. I don't know--
-He's a good guy.

I think anyone
who is important to any of us,

we will all do our best to welcome.

-Mm-hmm.
-Yeah.

-My brother!
-What up?

-My brother!
-Whoo!

This is my brother. Ooh!

Don!

-Cheers!
-The boss.

"The boss."

-How are you doing?
-Good to see you.

-Keeping out of mischief?
-Always.

-Thank you.
-Aw!

-Hey.
-Hey, Gabe.

-Hey.

Hi there.

-Hi! How are you?
-I'm good!

How are you?

-Come on in.
-Thank you.

-I love your outfit.
-I'm like a bush.

I think we're ready for dinner.
Let's head over to the dining room.

I think you're right…

Hey.

Oh my God, this is so cute.

I absolutely love the table.

The flowers could've been
a little shorter.

I don't get to see you.

-All these flowers.
-Right?

-I can't see shit with all these flowers.
-I can't see anyone.

All the candles make me nervous.

It looked like everything
was gonna just catch on fire

all of a sudden.

If everyone can have a seat.

Um,
when's the last time anyone saw Anna?

-Oh.
-I haven't seen her in a while.

But I know she's in New York
for the McQueen show.

-She made it there, on time? Kidding.
-I think so.

I spoke to Anna.
Apparently, she's in New York.

I'm kind of upset right now
because here Christine throws a party

and invited everyone including Anna…

Okay, so now the ball is on Anna's court.
Anna, where are you?

-She's gonna play a fucking tune.

Wait for it.

I couldn't do that
with a gun to my head, so…

I'm like…

-This?

Here.

You know, New York is fast-paced.

There's no filter. People are real.

It's just everything about it.

-Ready?
-Ready.

-How have you been?
-I'm good.

How was last night?

I mean, it's been a busy day of working.

Well, I was thinking I could show you
around a bit in the city.

-We could maybe get a carriage.
-Yes.

You know I never thought about,
what do I hope to gain out of a trip?

He's my friend.

You just go with the flow.

-Ciao, ciao!

We should go shopping.

Next time you're in town,
we should go.

Next time? I'm not leaving.

-You're moving here?
-No.

I mean, Anna, you're here in the city.
The best transportation is the subway.

-Subway?
-Yeah.

-I can do that.
-Really?

-I can.
-In a gown?

-Oh my God.

-Sorry, I just stepped on you.
-You're good.

I'm… I'm intrigued about you
wanting to move here.

Yeah, I've always loved it.
I've always loved New York.

-Well, I love LA.
-Yeah.

I like LA too as well. But I love how,
like, New York, you just feel, like…

-You feel.
-Yeah.

It, like, grabs you by the balls
and goes, "Hello!"

Yes!

-More time with Anna in New York.

Hey, you guys!

Maria wants to buy
us all a drink, all right?

-Can I get you all shots?
-Yes!

Oh my God!

Give it your whole wrist.
Give it a--

-Can I show you something?
-Yeah.

Give it your whole wrist.

That's when it feels good.

-Oh, wow.
-Let it pour.

Let it just tumble out.

So since landing in Los Angeles,

I have realized is, um,

bullshit.

Arriba, abajo,
al centro, pa' dentro.

I have a tendency to just change.
So I go when I wanna go.

That's it.

-Let's do whiskey now!

I know we've had
a lot of different…

-Differences.
Differences.

I know we've had a lot of differences.

But tonight, I really wanted us
to come together rooted in love

and specifically love
for our dear friend Kevin.

In support

in meeting

his true love,

-who I had the pleasure of meeting…
-What?

…in Paris.

You have a true love?

-What?
-Oh!

-True love!
-I thought it was Kim.

-I thought Kim!
-I thought it was Kim!

I would love
to introduce you guys to Devon.

-Hello there!

-You know her?
-No.

Liar. You're lying.

I don't know her. I swear.

Christine opens this door,
and in comes in Devon.

I mean, what the hell?
When did this happen?

Oh my God! Kevin, congrats.
I thought we were your true love.

Uh, yeah, kind of.
Why is she taking the long way?

-Uh, this is Kim.
-Hi. I'm Kim!

-Hi, Kim. Devon.
-Nice to meet you.

-Pleasure to meet you.
-You are… his ex-girlfriend?

Yes, from seven years ago.

-Wow, I am so shocked to hear this.

I… I am too.

-Congrats, buddy.
-Thanks.

-Thanks.
-You deserve it.

Nice to meet you. I'm sorry.
I mean, it just caught me off guard.

Nice to meet you.

-Welcome to our crazy family.
-I feel the same.

And so, like, I was nervous to do this
because I know…

She knows about you, Kelly.

She knows about you, Kim.
And I just hope--

-There's more. No, I'm kidding.

-I can't wait to hear more.
-I know.

Be nice.

Okay.

We're giving it a second chance,
and I just hope…

…since you guys are the closest to me,

I just want you to welcome her
the way you did with me.

Of course.

-Cheers, Devon.
-Cheers.

Cheers to you guys.
Cheers to Kevin and Devon.

-I didn't know anything.
-You really didn't?

Somebody he's been obsessed with
for seven years straight. You're gonna--

-They were… broken up.
-You lie to people?

So she's a monkey--

What happened to Lewis Tan?

What happened to him?

-I like him.
-You like him?

No, I met him
when he was hitting on Jaime at--

When was he--

-What? Lewis Tan?
-At Yamashiro.

-Yeah. That's right.
-I didn't even notice.

-I remember him.
-He was.

-Everyone noticed, and I didn't.
-Oh, spill the tea.

I feel like I've met you somewhere.
I don't know. I've met you before.

-Really? Maybe.
-Yeah. For sure.

-I don't know where it was.
-I don't know. Yeah. I mean--

You mean, like, physically,
or you saw me somewhere?

Yeah, maybe. Maybe I'm tripping.
Maybe it was on the cover of Vogue.

No, not the--

I remember that,
but Jaime didn't give him any attention.

-Really? Interesting.
-I didn't know that.

I'm like,
"Why didn't you tell me this before?"

Why all of a sudden, now that you have
your "girlfriend" next to you,

that you wanna say
Lewis was trying to talk to Jaime?

I hope it was a whole misunderstanding,
'cause that would be so weird.

I mean, if it is true,
then cool, I'm not surprised,

because, you know, guys are guys.

-Interesting, what else?
-No, wait. No, no, no, Kim!

-What?
-What's going on?

Um, nothing, I mean,
he's away shooting a movie, and--

I think he's great for you.

-Yeah? Why?
-I don't think he is.

I'm looking at Kim's face,
and I know in her head,

she's thinking,
how did nobody tell her about this?

Because our group talks about everything.
Everyone knows everyone's business.

And she didn't know about this.

-Isn't this the one that rejected you?
-No.

-That's not her. She never rejected me.
-All of a sudden--

Now, all of a sudden, she wants to be--

-I'll mind my own business.
-That's not her.

-She never rejected me.
-Kim doesn't know anything.

-You okay?
-Yeah, I'm fine. I was just so confused.

-I don't think Kim expected this.
-Huh?

-You should--
-I'm so happy for you guys.

I appreciate that.

As long as it's not the one
that rejected you for years,

and all of a sudden now she pops up
and is "in love" with you.

-How amazing you are--
-I would just say this.

I don't want you to be
too bothered about it, like--

I'm not. I'm more than happy.
I'm making sure it's the right one--

-Are you sure you're happy? Okay.
-One thousand percent.

Maybe he had to go through all that…
all of that with me…

…and for me to, like, break his heart
to finally realize, like,

you know, Devon is the one for him.

Maybe this had to happen, you know?

Life is crazy sometimes
like that, you know?

But at the end of the day,

if I truly, truly wanted Kevin,
yes, I believe

I could get Kevin.

Kane!

-What's up?
-What's with your outfit?

-What do you mean? What's wrong?
-So mismatched.

-How?
-I got you some, um, matcha.

You want dumplings?

-Sure.
-It's like the dumpling festival, so…

-Really?
-Zong. It's called zongzi which is like…

-I think it means…
-Ooh, this is good.

…auspiciousness and, like…
Which you need, and--

What does that mean?

Money.

Oh, I could use that.
I could use all the auspiciousness.

Exactly. Okay, can you bring this there?
I'll bring the dumplings there.

Sure. This looks more like a huge pierogi.

Pace yourself, Kevin.
You need to practice social etiquette.

What the fuck?

-You were saying about etiquette?
-Yeah. How are you and Devon?

I think we're doing good.
Ah, she wants to do sushi.

She wants to do sushi?
But you're vegetarian.

I know, but I've been eating fish.

I didn't know that you became, um--

-Pescatarian.
-Yeah.

I'm a little disappointed, but whatever.

-You're still judging me.
-I'm not judging.

-I can't judge as a Buddhist.
-It feels like it. Yes, you can.

-You judge all the time.
-I don't fucking judge all the time.

I judge your outfits.

-Yeah.
-I have to.

You just said
you don't judge as a Buddhist.

But sometimes I fail as a Buddhist
when I look at you.

I'm so glad I was sent here
on Earth to be your test.

Oh.

Anyway, I--

-You can say it.
-I need to go shopping.

You can say it.

Say what?

-I'm your bestie.
-No.

-You can say it.
-Could you please exit?

-Now?
-Yeah.

-Kicking me out?
-I'm supposed to go somewhere.

Where you going?

-I'm gonna go shopping.
-That's not going somewhere.

-I need to de-stress.
-Fine. Are you gonna eat the rest of this?

-Yes.
-Okay.

-That's so polite of you.
-To ask?

-Of course.
-To clear the plate. You never do that.

-You don't know that.
-Yes. Oh my God, my bracelets.

-See you.
-This is 100K. I can give it to you.

-Yeah, could I?
-Yeah, no.

-Dude, this guy's tall.
-I thought you were tall.

-They're not real legs.
-I know, I realize that, but it's just--

Tonight, I am sober six years.

We're gonna celebrate
the sober way, no alcohol.

Sucks that Devon's back in Boston,

but I'm inviting my close friends
that I've made here in LA.

Some new LA friends too.

Lots of food, good times,
and some… good people.

Good to finally see you. Hi.

-Welcome.
-Hi, everyone.

-Hi.
-What are we doing here?

-I don't even know why I'm here.
-Celebrating my six years!

-Of what?
-Sober!

-I'm sober today too.
-Kinda.

In Asia, we don't talk about sobriety.

-Your hair looks great.
-Thank you. You look great. Hi.

-How are you?
-Congratulations!

-Appreciate it.
-How long did it last? No, I'm kidding.

-You gotta try this.
-Is this your new thing?

-This is my new thing. Sans.
-Cheers.

-What do you mean, your new thing?
-My new drink.

-Oh, Christine's in the house!
-How do I follow this?

-CC!
-This is so intense.

-Oh my gosh.
-This is Christine Chiu.

Hi!

-Hi. This is Peter.
-How do you do? Very nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.
So he's the very tall stripper?

Look at his pole, yes.

Yeah. The pole dancer.

-I feel like this is Illuminati stuff.
-Yeah. This is a little--

-Kelly!
-What's in this drink?

-Congrats, Kev!
-Thank you!

-You look so good. What happened?

-I haven't seen you for a week.
-Shots fired.

-She's in love.
-You can't have surgery in a week.

When I moved to Los Angeles,
I found him, and he sponsored me--

Yeah, we kinda found each other,
um, and I see you reaching

and striving for more
and more beautiful things. And it's--

It's an inspiration,
and it can be done without.

Kim was one of those beautiful things
I was reaching for.

Oh, you're--

-Here we go.
-That didn't work out, Peter.

-We'll talk later.
-I changed my mind.

-Are you sure?
-Joking.

I was gonna say, "What's in this shit?"

She's like, "Call me
when you sell this beverage company."

-Oh gosh.
-Let's go eat.

Yeah, let's eat. Should we go eat?

All right, let's go eat. Let's go eat.

All right.

-Oh, this is so nice.
-It's not mine. It's Paul's.

It's so nice.

Kevin, this is so fancy.

This is not mine!

-I can't keep up with you anymore.
-Wow!

Kevin, nice watch.

-Thank you, Kane.
-Wanna talk about Kevin's new watch?

So are you wearing your friendship watch?

I customed a watch a few months ago,
and I picked it up.

They were really kind. They were like--

They gave one to Kevin.
They gave one to me.

You're not wearing
your friendship watch?

-Was it BOGO?
-No, I bought…

-I didn't wear it today. Kevin's wearing--
-That's really nice.

-Yeah, Kane got it for me.
-Aw!

It resembles, like,
a new beginning for our friendship.

-We held hands in Chinatown.
-We did.

-Did you guys kiss?
-We did not.

I'm not wearing the friendship watch,
but, um, I'm wearing the--

You're wearing a more expensive one.

-Yeah.
-Got it.

-I got it, Kane. Okay.

I met my first cousin.

Same personality,
same dirty… sense of humor.

Same driving skills?

-No.
-Too early!

Too early. Too soon.

-Wait. How are her abs? Signature?
-I didn't check out her abs.

-She know about your family?
-She doesn't.

She was literally left on the doorstep
of a police station with no information.

-She doesn't know how old she is.
-That's crazy. Two people get adopted--

Is this like--
Was this like a trend in the past?

-Yeah, a lot of Koreans were adopted.
-Just adopted.

Yeah, back then.

Is she gonna help you find
the rest of your family?

That's the thing. I'd love her to come
to Korea and if we find our--

Because we're gonna have a grandfather
in common or grandmother in common.

No wonder you don't care about the car.
You found your biological cousin.

-All that stuff doesn't really--
-My new friends--

Yeah.

-New family.
-Renewed friendships.

-Renewed friendship.

Peter.

Oh, no, I wanted to ask you,

how would you deal
with this in a sober way?

Making someone take a lie detector test.

-What?
-We spoke about this briefly.

-Wow.
-Right?

I've been out with some… some…
I'm not saying anybody's crazy.

I've been out with some very interesting,
creative, strange women

in LA over the past 30 years.
I've been married 16.

I've never gone out
with another woman since, for the record.

Uh, but… a lie detector test?

If somebody said to me,

"I'll go out with you,
but you need to take a lie detector test,"

I'd be like…

She doesn't know--

Don't trust.

-Wait. Did you do that?
-Yeah, she did it.

-I sure did!
-With who?

Oh shit!

-She made me take a liar detector test!

-I didn't realize it was her!
-I sure did!

-She did!
-Oh, wow!

Mad embarrassment!

-And he took the test!
-No!

-I passed! And she failed.
-And I didn't.

-Oh my God!
-Oh!

If she asked me to take a test,
I would take it.

-You would've taken it?
-Of course not, not in a million years.

-When do you meet Rihanna?
-I'm meeting her in February.

-Get out!
-I've known her for a long time.

-Can I totally be there?
-I can ask her.

I've known her for a long time.
And like, she sent me a message,

"I'd love you to be the face of Fenty."
I was like, "You're fucking kidding me!"

Kane, I think the question is,
when do you not model?

When do you turn it off?

-I don't know. I was born this way.

He woke up like that.

That's cool to see an Asian face on Fenty.

Absolutely.

It's a big thing to collab
with an African-American-owned company.

It's gonna break so many barriers,

especially with all this racism
and stuff going on, so…

Being in LA,
it's not an easy town to survive in.

And for someone like…

For someone like Rihanna
to believe in me is priceless.

You know, the fact that…

To get these pictures
that's gonna be shown worldwide…

It's gonna… it…

For me, it's, um…

It's helped me a lot,
and it's gonna help a lot of people.

-Good for you.

You found your benefactor.

Auntie, why would they hire me?

There is no one perfect man
that everyone likes.

-You are the best of yourself.

Auntie, I've been here so long.

It's been a long time.

Finally, my father has faith in me.

I'm so proud.

It's the first time
I can say I'm proud of myself.

So yeah.

I don't know why I'm crying.

I'm so sorry, I don't mean to be rude,
but my car is here.

-I've got a show.
-Thank you for coming.

-Thank you for having me.
-Thank you.

Bye!

-Bye, Kim!
-I'll see you soon.

-See you, love.
-Bye.

-Bye, Kim.
-Take this on the road.

-Why don't you eat the gold?
-Want gold to go?

-Thank you for coming.
-No, thank you so much. Congrats.

Put the gold like this.

Right?

Yeah!

How do I work my way
into a friendship watch?

-Oh my God.
-What do I need to do?

-You need ups and downs in your life.
-Ask Anna.

Can we celebrate
if you two are ever friends and like--

-Are you fucking kidding me?

-Let's be real, come on.
-Yeah.

As I'm looking around the room,
I see smiles and laughter

and friendly conversations,
and, like, this is the shit that I miss.

We were a fun group
that supported each other

and had fun together.

It does make me happy
to put things kind of behind us

and move forward in a positive direction.

I never thought,
coming three years ago to LA,

I'd have… you guys as friends.

Like, it's amazing. It really is, man.

Do you think you'll ever leave LA?
Or is this your forever home?

You guys are my people.

-Welcome to LA.
-Aw. You're our person.

This is like that Friends moment
on the reunion.

Y'all are gonna help me stay here, right?

-Yeah!
-We all hug now!

-Aw!
-Group hug!

What took so long for you guys to hug me?

Oh my God. Me now, from a year ago?

Didn't have a car.
Actually, I still don't have a car.

But now it's like I have my own space.
I have a girlfriend now.

I have a beverage business.
I've been sober for over six years.

I mean, it just seems like
the sky's the limit at this point.

-Happy sobriety birthday.
-Cheers.

-Cheers.
-Happy birthday!

-Thank you.
-Love you, Kevin!

A year ago,
I didn't feel like anything was possible.

This year,
I feel like anything is possible.

Do people
give presents for sobriety?

You do. Where's mine?

Your watch.

In New York,
anything can happen.

There are billionaires,
tastemakers, influencers, CEOs.

It's a city where you
could just be anything you wanna be.

New York City, I'm here!

I'm hoping that I'll vibe
with New York guys more than LA guys.

Sexy hot man, ravaging.

Tina is a fashion it-girl.

-Are we doing any partying tonight?
-Yes!

Over 145 carats.

This is like three Rolls-Royces in one.

Stephen and Deborah are master networkers.

Make sure my wife gets something.

If you get on their wrong side,
they'll bite back.

-I'm single…

-You never had a New York pizza?
-No!

…ready to mingle.

Definitely saw you guys making out.

Tina always asks, "Does he make your PQ?"
Your pussy quiver.

My parents are watching.

I have dated half of the population
in New York City.

Look how strong you are.

I found a photo from way back in the day.
Like, we gotta do that again.

Do you like him?

-I don't know. He's still 6'4".
-You think he's cute.

Do you think Vika
is just under Richard's spell?

-Why do you care? You're being stupid.
-I'm being stupid?

You're, like, brainwashed.
I would kick his ass.

I feel like I'm on the edge of a cliff.

I have something to tell you.
I met someone.

-She is negative, toxic.
-What a waste of time this woman is.

-I don't have competition.
-I'm ready for the fight.

I don't wanna have to unleash,
but, like, I will.

Does this close?

I'm in a cab!
