Grand Hotel (2019): Season 1, Episode 4 - The Big Sickout - full transcript

Previously on "Grand Hotel"...

Your son, he sits by the pool
all day picking up girls.

If you stop giving him money,
it might do him some good.

I'm gonna help with the baby,

but I can't get the money
until I talk to my dad.

I'm gonna be a father.

I want to step up.

I need more money.

I tried to handle this
on my own, but I couldn't.

I found this.
"Sky, I can't stop thinking about you."

It's a love letter.
So your sister was seeing someone.



He went to a lot of trouble
to get this back.

Let's see what's going on
underneath that shirt!

Good night, Carolina.

I really wish
you would say something.

I think I'm in shock.

Ingrid, from housekeeping?

Mm-hmm. You got her pregnant?

And that reaction right there

is exactly why I haven't
told Dad yet who she is.

You know, I really thought

that you would be cooler
about this.

You're gonna be a dad.

Aww.

No, no, no. Don't "aww."



This whole situation is
pretty much a giant disaster.

No, I don't think so.

Honestly, you have the
biggest heart of anybody I know,

and if you're as good
at being a dad

as you are at being a brother,

it's gonna be
a really lucky kid.

Rachel went on break,

so, unfortunately,
you're both stuck with me.

Alicia? Um, no, thanks.
I'm done.

Uh, just throw it on my tab.

Thank you. Okay.

I thought you, uh,
liked the guy.

I did, until I saw him
coming out of Carolina's room

the other night.

Well, you did tell him
that nothing could happen

between you two,

so it's not really fair
to get jealous.

I just... I didn't think
he'd pick a girl like Carolina.

Really? So, you think
'cause you took a dip

in the pool with the guy,
now you know him?

You're right. I don't.

I mean, how much could we
really have in common, anyway?

Uh, Mr. Mendoza? Huh?

There seems to be a problem
with your bill.

Hey. You're cutting me off?

That's right.

It's time I stopped
treating you like a child

now that you're having
one of your own.

So you're punishing me.

No. Javi, he's teaching you how
to be a responsible adult.

Oh.

That's funny, because
what about your daughters?

They're not exactly
pulling themselves up

by their Jimmy Choos, are they?

Oh, basta, Javier.

All of these years
I've spoiled you

because of your... challenges.

You never grew up
because I never let you.

I'm about to have a kid.

I mean, w-what the hell
am I supposed to do for money?

What the rest
of the world does...

Get a job and earn it.

I have some, um,

unfortunate news, Helen.

I can't afford the annual
bonuses for the staff.

I don't understand.

I thought the hotel
was doing better

with the EIRey residency
up and running.

We're at capacity every night.

It's more complicated than that.

How so?

Whatever it is,
you can trust me.

Please inform the staff.

If I may, these people
depend on these bonuses.

It's gonna be terrible
for the morale.

The staff will respect
Santiago's decision, Helen.

And so will you.

Helen is right.

The staff will hate this.

But we need the bonus money
to keep things quiet.

This will work. Trust me.

Trust you?

You messed up.

Nobody was supposed to
know about the girl.

And nobody will.

We'll pay whoever this is,
and it'll be over.

Well, it better be,
'cause if the truth comes out,

it'll destroy my family,
and then...

I'll destroy you.

Hey. You remember
when you told me.

Ingrid's birthday was coming up?

Yeah.

Well, I figure we get the staff

to sign a card for her,
especially the guys.

A bunch of guys being sweet
to the girl I'm into.

Yeah, sounds great.

Dude, handwriting samples.

We need to figure out who wrote
the love letter to Sky.

And, look,
I already got a few signatures.

Yeah, let's try to
find our match.

Where's the love letter?

It's right here.

Okay, people.

Listen up.

Due to budget constraints,

there will be
no staff bonuses this year.

What?

I know this is unwelcome news,

but we just have to trust

that these decisions
are not made lightly.

Thank you. I'm sorry.

What are we gonna do now?

Okay, so, what are we doing
about this staff bonus thing?

I don't really think
there's anything we can do.

We can't just take it
lying down.

Thanks to EIRey,
the hotel is busier than ever.

But... But do the workers
see any of the profits?

Nope. But we do get
to work longer shifts.

Exactly.

Santiago Mendoza
is raking it in.

And you can bet
he's not taking a pay cut.

That's for sure. It's true.

Maybe, but we really can't be
rocking the boat right now.

If we all band together
and show his lordship

how well this place runs
without us...

Come on.

Your mom will kill you if you're
a part of this. Let's go.

Now, who's with me?

- Yeah!
- Yeah, that's right.

Yeah? Let's do it.

Ay-yi-yi. Gigi, that dress.

You look fantastic.

This? It's nothing.

We have a VIP checking in today.

His name is Victor Calloway.

He's the CEO of...

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I know who he is.

He's the, uh, publisher of
those luxury travel magazines.

Yes. Now, imagine what one cover
could do for us.

The hotel on every swanky
coffee table in the world.

Do you think you can get us
a cover?

Oh, I'll convince him.

Victor is an old friend.

He called to say he was in town,
so I insisted he stay here.

Of course.

I'm not sure
I like that dress anymore.

Don't worry.

There's nothing between
me and Victor.

Never was.

I just forget you had
a life before me.

Mm. All your fancy friends.

Friends who all vanished

when things got hard
for me and the girls.

Except for you.

Ven aquí, chiquita.

I love you.

Why didn't the maid
come to do the dishes?

I can't. I'll call downstairs.

We've been short-staffed
this morning.

I'll send housekeeping right up.

All right.

Hey, Mrs. P. Hey.

Are you, uh, busy? Very.

But I can always
find time for you.

What's going on?

Uh, so, I need to find a job.

My dad kind of cut me off,
and I was hoping

that you could help me come up
with a résumé that,

you know, doesn't make me
sound like...

You've been a professional mooch
all your life?

Yes. Well, you're in luck.

There's some kind of flu
going around,

and I need temps
all over the hotel,

so what are you good at?

I can make a girl feel like

she's the only person
in the room.

How about Facilities? Hmm.

My husband's down
a couple of guys,

and he's patient enough
to put up with you, so...

Yeah, great. Okay.

Thank you. Mm-hmm.

Oh, yes, and, uh, pay...
We talking minimum wage?

Little bit more than that...
Not a negotiation!

Go. Got it. Thank you, Mrs. P!

Uh-huh.

Personnel?

Sorry, Mrs. P. It's Nelson.

I am really, really sick today.
Well, you're not the only one.

Any chance you'll be better
tomorrow?

I guess it depends.

Will our bonuses be restored
by tomorrow?

You little weasel.

Don't be nervous, corazón.

I just want Victor
to be impressed.

He will be.

The hotel sells itself.

Trash needs to go out now.

Woman I can't do everything.

We have a problem.
I can see that.

There is no one at reception,
and where are all the janitors?

This place is a mess.

Half the staff called in sick,

so whatever they have,
it must be contagious.

It's not the flu. It's a revolt.

A what? They're all faking.

It's a sick-out.

They're angry about their
bonuses being cut.

I told you this wouldn't
go over well.

Now, hold on.

If half of the staff is out,
who's gonna do all their jobs?

We are.

We can do this.

We just have to put out
one fire at a time.

Where do we need the most help?

Restaurant, spa, laundry...

Javi's already working in
Facilities, so...

Seriously? Mm-hmm.

See? He's already
more responsible.

I'm telling you,
he took my bag. I saw it!

Okay, double shifts for everyone
who's still working,

and that includes us, okay?

What? These staffers are loyal.

You're gonna run them
into the ground.

What if we could get
the rest of the staff back?

If you offer them some kind of
concession, I'm sure they...

I'm not gonna let the staff
tell me how to run this hotel.

I-I think we can get by.

Um, we can spread
the staff around to cover,

but we do need more bodies.

Ah, and here they come.

I feel so much better.

Mami, we got your texts.
What's the big emergency?

Santiago needs us today,

so you both
are gonna be working,

and not on your tans.

Carolina,
you'll take the restaurant.

Yoli, the spa. Restaurant?

Maybe Danny the waiter
works there.

How are we twins?
Come on, girls.

I'll get you uniforms.

Really? Uniforms?

I know you didn't spend
all that time in school

so you can fold towels.

No, it's fine.

It'll be good
for the staff to see us

working alongside them
down in the trenches.

Gracias, mija. Mm-hmm.

Gracias.

Gigi, Victor Calloway
is at reception.

He's here? Yes.

Oh, God.

Victor. It's been too long.

Ah, Gigi. Still gorgeous.

Have you gotten younger? I wish.

Welcome to our home,
the Riviera Grand.

Thank you, yes.

It's, uh, pretty hectic.

I'm having trouble getting
anyone's attention.

It's not easy to be the most
popular hotel in Miami Beach.

Santiago Mendoza... my husband.

Lovely hotel
and even lovelier wife.

And I value them both very,
very much.

Mateo, his bag.

You're the one who said
to cut the bonuses, right?

So now we're in this together.

And, uh,
where is the restaurant?

I am starving.

Well, you're in for a treat,

because we have
the best chef in Miami.

Um he's out today.

Well, we do have the best chef,

and he will make
your mouth water.

Right this way, sir.
Enjoy your stay.

Thank you so much.

You told him we have a chef?
I got it covered.

I promise.

Thanks.

Hey, did you get more guys
to sign Ingrid's card?

Yeah.

"Happy birthday, Ingrid."

Even though we've worked
together for a year

"and you still
don't know my name."

Your girl's not
making this easy.

Hey, what happened to my shirt?

I-I left it
on the bench right here.

Oh, I threw it with the dirty
uniforms to get washed.

Sky's letter was in the pocket.

Pliers.

Javi. Hmm?

Javi. What?

Pliers. Yup.

We're here to work,
not pick up girls, okay?

Hi.

Yeah, I just didn't realize
how this tool belt

would be such catnip
for the ladies.

Pretty cool perk
to being a janitor, huh?

I'm not a janitor, Javi.

I'm Chief of Facilities.

Right. What's up, Pops?

Elevator acting up?
Yeah, we're on it.

Javi.

What, you working, too? Yeah.

I really wanted to do my part.

Daddy cut him off. Wow.

Ooh, tough break, buddy.

Listen, uh, the pool guy
called in sick, too,

so Mom wants you to
check on the levels.

Tell her we'll do it
as soon as we're done here.

Which at this rate should be
sometime next week.

I think there's been a mistake.

I'm supposed to be working
at the spa.

I thought I'd be wearing
a flowy kimono thing.

If you were doing massages,
but you're on cleanup duty.

I'm not doing that.

Listen, your mother
assigned you this job.

Don't forget. Your sister is
in the exact same boat.

Look what the hostesses
get to wear!

Isn't it adorable?

You have got to be kidding me.

Now, stay close.

I don't want our new
star employees to get lost.

What is this place?

You've never been down
to the tunnels?

This is how the staff
gets around

without being seen
by the guests.

Oh, like mole people.

What are you doing?

Just looking for Danny.

I wonder where he is.

Okay, you're obsessed.

Uh, excuse me?

Oh, God.

Uh, they assign you to
work down here, too?

Yeah.

Yeah, they, uh...
They sent me here to help.

Well, this day just keeps
getting better.

Okay.

Well, I'll, uh... I'll just
get started on these shirts.

Oh, actually,
could you go collect

the dirty towels
from the guest rooms?

Yeah, yeah.
Right after I do the shirts.

Well, we're here to help the
guests, and the guests need towels.

Nobody cares about the shirts.

I care about the shirts.

Are you here to help or not?

Alicia,
did I do something wrong?

It's just, you know,

we... we had such a good time
the other night.

Danny, we're coworkers.
That's all.

So let's just keep things
professional from now on.

IAtencion, amigos!

We have a very special guest
dining here today,

so everything must be perfect.

We don't have a head chef.

You do now.

I started in kitchens,
back when I had nothing.

Worked my way up
'til I owned three restaurants.

So you know how to cook?

Any more questions?

Okay, then. Let's go.

Move, move! Yes, Chef!

You're working today?

I figured if anyone
called in sick, it'd be you.

I wish, but I can't afford it.

I already used up
all my sick days.

Just take it easy, okay?

I can't believe
the bonuses got cut.

Do you know
how expensive this...

pregnancy crap is?
It's so unfair to you.

To everybody.

And I don't make a lot of money,

but if you need anything,
I'm here.

No, no, I'll be okay.

Hey, get this.

I heard Alicia Mendoza
is in the laundry room.

Can you imagine her
trying to fold a fitted sheet?

Oh, I can top that.

Javi is working Facilities.

Turns out his dad cut him off.

What? I know.

Poor little rich boy,

no more payouts
from the Bank of Santiago.

You okay?

Danny!
I've been looking for you.

I'm working in
the restaurant today.

Why aren't you there?

Helping out in laundry.

Do you like my hostess outfit?
It's nice.

I-It's very hostess-y.
That's me.

Hashtag working girl.

Carolina, I'm working.

I know, me, too.

I just wanted to say
I had such fun

getting to know you...
and your biceps.

And it was so sweet of you
to carry me to my room.

You were pretty drunk.

I'm such a lightweight.

Hey, why don't you come back
to my room after your shift?

Um...

I thought I was pretty clear
the other night.

I'm not interested.

Okay.

That's totally cool.

I'm sorry. You're really great.

It's just...
there's someone else.

Something funny?

I've just never seen somebody
mopping a floor in heels before.

Well, they're not heels.
They're wedges.

And I didn't know
I'd be cleaning today.

"Cleaning" is generous.

You've been spreading dirty
water all over for 20 minutes.

Hilarious, isn't it?

Watching the spoiled princess
screw up.

I don't think you're a princess.

Princesses can clean.

Snow White whistled
while she worked.

And Cinderella?
All that bitch did was clean.

Give me a break?

Okay, between
the naked old people,

drains clogged with hair,
and the smell

of this horrible dungeon,
yeah, I've had it.

Must be really hard on you.

Having to live my life for
one day.

I'm sorry, Marissa.

That came out wrong.

It's fine.

When you're through here, uh,
just go wipe down the sauna.

And tonight I'll take you
to an EIRey concert.

His act is gonna blow you away.

VIP seats, of course. Fantastic.

Ay, Carolina, sweetie,
can you help us, please?

Table for two?
Wait, this is your Carolina?

Mm-hmm.

The last time I saw you,
you were this big.

Now she has heels
taller than that.

And she's a hostess? Here?

Yes, yes, and she takes her job
very seriously.

Where should we sit, Caro?

Wherever you want.

Okay.

Ah, it's fantastic
that she works here.

Oh, she's a natural.

My favorite table
is right over here.

You know, on second thought,
let's sit in the corner.

It's nice and cozy over there.

Cozier, the better.

Good afternoon. Can I get you
started with something?

Um, you know the menu.

Why don't you order us
some of your favorites?

Of course, um, we'll start with
the ahi ceviche...

Actually, let's do
the conch fritters.

The grouper?

May I suggest
the Chef's Tasting Menu?

Excellent. Right away.

No, no, no, no, Karl, no.

What are you doing?
You're ruining the paillard.

Like this.

Again.

Jason. Come on.

The food won't walk itself
to the table.

We're all working doubles here,
Mr. Mendoza.

I'm doing the best I can.

Yeah, and I'm trying to
make you better.

I don't mean to sound harsh, but
your service today is lacking.

Just like our bonuses?

Jason!

It's okay, Helen.

He didn't think.

Don't you ever speak to
Mr. Mendoza like that.

What is wrong with you?

We were all counting on
those bonuses.

Okay, look. We may not understand
his decisions, but we...

Why are you always on his side?

Because he has been good to me
and our family for years.

Yeah, well, he's not being
good to you now.

Or to any of us.

When are you gonna wake up, Mom?

You're not one of them.

You're one of us.

I've been watching you
and thought that

you could use a break.

Oh, thanks. I've survived worse.

What happened,
if you don't mind me asking...

I, uh, I got into it
with a great white

off the coast of Africa.

Oh, my gosh. Yeah, shark won.

Hope everything else
still works.

Oh, yeah. Perfectly.

Hey.

Hey.

So, how's Javi doing?

Wish he'd work this pool
the way he works those girls.

How's your day going?

Our son is getting
on my last nerve.

You should've heard the way
he talked to Mr. Mendoza.

All right, now,
cut Jason some slack.

He's just a little overworked.

I'm feeling overworked myself.

You're not thinking about
calling in sick, too, are you?

No, I'm just tired.

I've been on my feet all day.

I know. I'm tired, too.

But the hotel needs us.

So just hang in there
a little while longer.

Mmm. Thank you.

Mm-hmm.

I have here our Paella del Mar.

Please enjoy.

This is beautiful.

Our chef always comes through.

Mm.

Absolutely perfect.

Just like this hotel of yours.

Perfect enough for one
of your magazine covers?

For you, Gigi, anything.

A cover story? Really?

Of course.

But now that we're alone...

I have a personal matter
to discuss.

Personal?

I'm not really sure how you feel
about your husband.

Santiago?

Oh, my God, we are very,
very much in love.

Your first husband, Felix.

What?

I thought no one
has seen Felix in years.

Ever since...
We've managed to reconnect.

I know where he is.

Then you shouldn't be
talking to me.

You should be talking
to the authorities.

Gigi, he just wants to
make things right.

But it's been 10 years, Victor.

And after everything
that happened, I...

Felix wants a second chance.

Would you ever consider allowing
him back into your life?

But it turns out
Sky was seeing someone.

It... No, I found a love letter,
and, um, I lost it, so...

I'll call you back.

I know. Towels before shirts.

Oh, um, no. Look, I-I'm sorry.

I know I've been a little...
all over the map today.

The truth is,
I was being hard on you

because I thought that you
and my stepsister were...

you know... Me and Carolina?

The point is, I was wrong.

I kind of overheard you
talking upstairs.

The laundry chute has
bizarrely good acoustics.

So you were jealous.

I know I have no right to be...
but, yes.

That's okay.

I actually think
it's pretty cute.

Can we just start this day over?

Deal.

Oh, thank God.

What?

Just, you know,
thank God we sorted that out.

Your ex-husband
should be in prison.

Innocent people trusted him
with their money.

I trusted him with my money,
and he ran away with it all.

Please, Santiago, stop.

What did you say?

About getting in touch?

I... I said I was gonna
think about it.

I don't like it, either,
Santiago,

but don't Yoli and Caro
have the right to know...

He abandoned them just as much
as he abandoned you.

He's still their father.

The man is a criminal.

You can't get
involved with him again.

I won't allow it.

You won't allow it?

After everything
we've been through,

is this really a choice?

Hmm?

Mateo, I think
you lost something.

What?

Your dignity.

You think this is funny?

I heard about
Javi getting cut off.

So much for your big plan.

That's none of your business.

What's the point
of keeping this scheme going

if he has no money, hmm?

Or is this all just to hurt me?

Hurt you?

You'd have to have feelings
for that.

You think I don't care about you
or the baby?

You can't even say it's yours.

And you wonder why
I turned to Javi.

Javi was a bad choice.

He'll only disappoint you.

Then I guess I have a type.

So, I unpacked the seaweed wraps

and hosed down the Turkish Bath.

Just like you asked.

That's your job.

Do you want a medal?

Look, I'm sorry
I complained earlier.

I was being a brat.

My sister got
a cushier job than I did,

and it kind of
pushed my buttons.

I get it. I have a sister, too.

Yeah, but mine is my twin.

Except she's gorgeous
and perfect

and gets anything she wants.

Wait, are you
under the impression

that you're not gorgeous?

Well, thank you for that,
but it's... it's a thing.

You know, she's got my mother
wrapped around her finger,

and guys are always
into her, and...

What do you care about guys?

I mean, you're gay, right?

No.

Why would you think that?

Oh, sorry.

I guess it was just
wishful thinking.

How many more of these
do we got to change?

Had enough, huh?

No, I could do it all night,
but we're not, right?

Javi, I've known you
all your life.

You don't have to
pretend with me.

All right, maybe I'm a tiny bit
bored out of my mind.

How do you stand this job
day after day?

I don't just do it for me.

The moment we had Jason, I knew.

I'd change a million light bulbs
to give him a better life.

You'll know someday, too.
Come on.

Yeah.

Mm. All right, which one's next?

Malcolm?

Whoa... Malcolm?

Malcolm! Help!

I don't need to go to the damn hospital.
Dad, you fainted.

They said I'm just dehydrated.

Then we'll just go to make sure.

Hey, uh, don't worry, Malcolm.
I'll cover the work.

Oh, God.

We're taking him to
Dixie Memorial.

You two can ride along.
Come on, Mom.

Come on.

Helen, I heard
what happened to Malcolm.

I-Is he all right?

I warned you not to
cut the bonuses,

but you wouldn't listen,
would you?

Now look what happened!

I'm sorry.
I didn't have a choice.

Why the hell not? Huh?

There you go again.
Shutting me out.

I can't believe
I was even defending you.

Helen, please. Understand.

You are so very important to me.

Am I?

When Beatriz died

and when Javi
was in the hospital,

I held this hotel together
for you,

but now who do you listen to?

Mateo.

I've been at your side
for over 20 years.

He's been here for two.

I don't understand.

What happened?
Did I do something wrong?

No.

Y-You just... have to trust me.

Mom, come on!

You want to save this hotel,
you save it your damn self.

I'm calling in sick, too.

So, have you given it
any more thought?

I've had 10 years to think.

So you tell Felix
that we have all moved on,

and he should do the same.

Don't your daughters have
a right to know their father?

Felix left us with nothing.

And Santiago stepped up
to provide a life.

Now, that's a real father.

I understand your anger,

but I think
you're making a mistake.

It was lovely
seeing you, Victor.

Have a safe flight home.

Hey, we met at the pool, right?

Right. Thanks for coming up.

I can't figure out what's wrong.

Oh, no sweat.

If I can fix anything,
it's a TV.

Oh.

Sorry, this place
is such a mess.

My son just
leaves his toys everywhere.

You're a mom?

Little guy is
with his aunt right now,

so I have this big fancy room
all to myself.

Mm-hmm.

Just had it
on the wrong setting.

Whoops! Silly me.

Let me get you a drink.
Thank you.

Oh, I probably shouldn't.

So, where's the dad?

Not in the picture.

Single mom.

It's very stressful. I bet.

If only I could figure out
a way to relax.

Yeah. What's it like?

What?

You know,
raising a kid on your own.

Oh, for God's sake.
You really want to know?

I haven't slept in two years.

I can't depend on
my deadbeat ex for anything,

and I barely get
a moment to myself,

and when I finally do,
I can't even get

the hot hotel janitor
to have sex with me.

I'm not a janitor.
I'm in Facilities.

And I got to get back to work.

I'm not coming back tonight,
if that's why you're here.

It's not.

How's he doing?

Better.

They're gonna hold him overnight
to run some routine tests.

So, then, why are you here?

We've been through
a lot together, Helen.

And, uh, you're not
just an employee.

You're...
You're also a good friend.

I feel the same.

And you deserve to know
the truth

about the hotel's finances.

And why I had to hire Mateo.

Had to? Yeah.

It was part of a deal.

Um, no one knows this.

Not Gigi, not Alicia.

For their own safety.

My God, what... what...
What have you done?

A couple of years ago,
the hotel was sinking fast,

and I needed a way out.

So I borrowed money from
some very dangerous people...

You're sort of really good
at folding for a guy.

Is that sexist?

Actually, I've...
I've had a lot of practice.

I had to do my own laundry
growing up in foster care.

Oh. I didn't realize.

I'm sorry. Don't be.

I, uh... I don't really
remember my parents.

I lost them
when I was pretty young...

Just not young enough
for a family to want me.

So I got bounced around a lot.

That's awful.

It was, uh... It was worse
for my older sister.

You know, she was...
She... she was angry.

She was a handful.

You know, we...
We got separated.

And I... I tried to
stay in touch, but...

I guess I've always felt
responsible for her.

Where is she now?

I don't know.

My mom died of a heart attack,
out of the blue.

My brother was like your sister,

sort of pissed at the world.

You?

The more things fell apart,

the more I felt like
I had to take care of everyone.

Sometimes it still feels
that way.

Like it's all on me to...
Make everything right.

I guess we've got that
in common.

We do, don't we?

Should we be doing this?

I don't know. Should we?

I'll see you later?

Hola.

Hey, uh, nice to see
everyone back today.

I'm glad you're all
feeling so much better.

Look, um,
I realize that this hotel

is only as good
as the people who work here.

So I've decided to...

bring back the bonuses.

So please, now, enjoy this party

as a gesture of thanks
for your hard work.

Drinks are on the house.
You deserve it.

Even you, Nelson. Ah.

You little weasel.

That's right, baby!

'Bout time!

So, hopefully they'll behave now.
Yeah.

Thank God we still had
all this booze left over

from Carolina's wedding.

This party was a great idea.

It was yours.

Like I said... a great idea.

Thank you for listening to it.

Santiago, may I speak with you?

I better go get Malcolm
from the hospital.

Mateo.

Helen.

I thought you were cutting
the staff bonuses.

I couldn't do that.
These are my people.

Sometimes
you need to be reminded

of who's on your team
and who is not.

So what are you gonna do
about the blackmailer?

What I should've done
to begin with.

Flush him out.

Put an end to it,
once and for all.

Hello. Sorry to bother you.

Oh, hey. You're my mom's friend
from the restaurant.

And I also know your father,
Felix.

This needs to stay between us,

but there's something
we need to discuss.

May I come in?

Over there, sir.

Didn't you hear?

Everyone's back at work.

You're free from the dungeon.

I guess I wanted you to see me

when I'm not in my hazmat suit.

Come on. You rocked
that hazmat suit.

Um...

I know I complained a lot,
but, uh...

yesterday was kind of fun.

And if you ever want to
hang out sometime...

I'm in.

Like a... date?

How about Friday?

Yes?

Mateo.

Can I get you to sign something?

What is it?
It's a birthday card for Ingrid.

Yeah, I don't think
that's appropriate.

Oh, it's just a birthday card.

Yeah, I prefer to
keep my distance

from the staff
to avoid any confusion.

Excuse me.

So, I saw this in the gift shop,
thought of you.

Oh, you... you...
You didn't have to do that.

Yeah, but I wanted to.

It's not much,
but, I don't know,

I didn't want you to think of me
as a total deadbeat.

Then what about
the money I need?

Yeah, I'm gonna... I'm gonna get
that for you, somehow.

And, uh, I was thinking...

what if I wanted to be
more involved?

With the baby? Yeah.

Yeah, you know, like, be a dad.

You shouldn't have to
do this alone.

Uh, that's room service.
I got enough for two.

Do you want to stay
and eat with me?

I-I thought you were cut off.

I charged it to Alicia's tab.

Don't tell my dad that.

Hey, Jason, would you, uh,

would you mind
setting the table for two?

Yeah, right away. Thank you.

Hey.

I thought you'd be all packed
and ready to go by now.

What's wrong, baby?

They found something.

What are you doing?

Mateo wouldn't sign the card,
so I stole his trash.

I figured there's got to be
something in here

with his handwriting on it.

Wow. That's good thinking.

Here's something.

Get the love letter.
See if it's a match.

I'll keep looking.

Nah.

I don't think Mateo's
the one Sky was seeing.

Wait, what's all this?

"$200k."

One week.

"Or I tell
what you did to that girl."

Someone's blackmailing Mateo?

Over Sky?

What the hell
did he do to my sister?

Hey.

Sorry I haven't called you back.

It's been kind of crazy here.

But I think I'm onto something.

So, when do you think
you'll come back home?

Uh, soon.

I'm sorry.

Me, too.
