Grand Hotel (2019): Season 1, Episode 7 - Where the Sun Don't Shine - full transcript
Santiago continues to be aggravated with the neighboring hotel and decides to take matters into his own hands; Danny and Jason try to find a girl who's looking for Sky.
Previously on "Grand Hotel"...
ALICIA: Oliver?
(CHUCKLES) Alicia. Fantastic.
Let's grab dinner tonight.
Dinner is perfect.
We're gonna be neighbors
for years.
I highly doubt that.
I'm gonna put you
right out of business.
I never dreamed
we'd actually get you.
Welcome to the Finn Hotel.
(GLASSES CLINK)
They don't suspect anything?
They totally bought it! I'm in!
What's wrong? The baby.
It's not yours.
I'll see you upstairs.
When you wait too long,
the choice gets made for you.
You're in love with her.
(DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)
(CHEERING)
♪♪
Spring Break, day one.
Buckle up.
You don't sound too excited.
Well, we're gonna be
working our asses off.
These college kids
are terrible tippers.
Though on the plus side...
there is that.
Mm.
Hey, you're a free agent now.
No girlfriend,
Alicia's with that Oliver guy...
Yeah, I'm not looking
to hook up.
I just need to focus on finding
out what happened to Sky.
Good luck with that.
They're gonna be expecting
all of us to work doubles.
PORTER: Danny!
Hey, man, I'm flattered, but...
Shut up. These need to go
to the 14th floor.
And I know, you're a waiter,
but it's Spring Break...
All hands on deck.
Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
"Alicia Mendoza"? Ow.
You may not be looking
to hook up this week,
but somebody is.
Alicia's new boyfriend.
I got it.
♪♪
Danny?
Oh. Hey, Alicia.
Those are for you.
But not from me. From Oliver.
I'm guessing.
I-I didn't read the card.
Were you just running away?
(CHUCKLES) No.
I was... briskly walking away
from a potentially awkward
situation.
Danny, it doesn't
have to be awkward.
You weren't interested,
and Oliver is.
Clearly.
I mean, the red roses
are a little on the nose,
but it's the thought
that counts.
(SCOFFS) Well,
I just think he's direct
about what he wants,
which I find so refreshing.
Also, that sexy British accent
does not hurt.
So I guess it all worked out
for the best.
(DOOR CLOSES)

(CHEERING)
♪♪
The pool is packed.
Yeah.
I hope they are drinking.
Ah, it's college kids.
On Spring Break.
I think they're drinking.
(CHUCKLES)
Why are you so worried?
We're at full capacity,
EIRey is selling out
every night...
Finn says he's gonna
put us out of business.
I worked my ass off
to get us where we are.
Don't let him
get under your skin.
He's nothing compared to you.
Hmm.
So, have you thought
about what I told you?
Ingrid, the lying snake?
And Mateo,
the other lying snake?
Well, Ingrid is pregnant.
She could sue
if we tried to fire her.
But Mateo...?
He says he had no idea
he... he was the father.
And you believe him?
I'll talk to Mateo, I promise.
Now come on, the kids
will be here for breakfast.
♪♪
Hey, you.
I love my flowers.
Fantastic.
Why are you whispering?
I just walked into
my dad's suite.
Oh, he still
doesn't approve of us?
Well, he's not thrilled
you work for his archenemy.
But frankly, I find the whole
Romeo and Juliet thing
super hot.
You know how
that play ends, right?
(CHUCKLES) I got to go.
I'll talk to you later, Oliver.
Oliver?
Is that the boy
from the hotel next door?
I am not discussing
my romantic life with you.
Just don't tell him that
their new Vice President
is a spy.
I promise I won't say a word
about Mrs. P.
Do you really think this plan
is gonna work?
Claro.
If anyone can pull this off,
it's Helen Parker.
Oh.
You use Pimlico
as your produce vendor?
Everyone says they're
the best in the city. Why?
Ah... it's none of my business.
I'm sure you know
what you're doing.
No, no. No, that's
why I have you here.
You know Miami Beach.
Who do you like?
You know what?
Why don't you let me pick out
all your vendors?
Put me in, Coach!
(CHUCKLES) Mendoza was
a madman to let you go.
Hundred percent.
By 7:00, then, honestly,
we'll be fine with that.
Oh, uh, terribly sorry.
Are we early?
C'mon in, boys,
just wrapping up here.
Oh, I didn't realize
there was a staff meeting.
I'm happy to stay.
Nope. This one's
just for the big dogs.
You go out and
make some hires already.
We need a full staff.
Oh, I am interviewing some
people this afternoon, so...
Like I told you, just go steal
the best people
from the Riviera Grand.
That way, we got
the cream of the crop,
and Mendoza gets the shaft.
Win-win.
(CHUCKLES)
Hi.
♪♪
Come, sit.
Where's your sister?
Not coming.
She's still mad at you.
How does she expect me to react
when she came out in front
of all those people?
Everyone was
staring at me, Caro.
Maybe it wasn't about you.
I guess I could've
handled it better.
I don't know.
I-I'll talk to her.
Good.
She's here, she's queer,
and you have to get used to her.
SANTIAGO: Have you talked
to your brother?
Not yet.
I'm a little worried about him.
He was so excited about Ingrid
and becoming a dad...
I just hope he's not
too devastated.
(DOOR UNLOCKS) Spring Break!
(DOOR CLOSES)
Who's coming to the pool
with me?
Huh?
Drinking at breakfast, mijo?
What about work?
Just taking some
"personal time."
Blowing off some steam.
Right, of course.
You've had a rough week,
you're upset... I'm relieved.
I'm not ready to be a dad.
I basically dodged
a huge bullet.
But Ingrid... I thought...
She did me a favor.
She cut me loose
right before Spring Break...
It's like the best time
of the year to be single.
So, you nerds want to
have any fun today,
I will be in Cabana Seven.
Ah...
(DOOR OPENS, CLOSES)
(SIGHS)
(DOOR OPENS)
SANTIAGO: Helen.
(DOOR CLOSES)
Did anyone see you?
Don't be so paranoid.
They think I'm just
clearing out my office.
How's it going?
It's been kind of fun.
Finn is letting me pick out
all the vendors.
I'm gonna surround him
with nothing but idiots.
(LAUGHS)
So he really has no idea.
Mm-hmm.
Oh, and one more thing.
Finn keeps hounding me
to steal your employees,
so I'm gonna have to
hire somebody,
or he's gonna start
getting suspicious.
Actually...
There's one person
I wouldn't mind losing.
Seriously?!
You want me to be
the Head of Housekeeping?
I always thought you sort of,
you know, hated my guts.
(LAUGHS) Why would you say that?
Because you tried to fire me?
(INHALES) That was tough love.
To bring out your potential.
Ohh. So this whole time,
you've been grooming me? Sure.
Well, it's actually
a perfect time for me
to be getting out of this place.
Yes, I heard about the confusion
with Javi and the baby.
You did?
I guess I shouldn't
be surprised.
Everyone's been talking about me
and how I'm such
a horrible person.
Well, then, like you said...
It's time for a fresh start.
Do I have to wear one of those?
Did I mention I'd be
doubling your salary?
It is so cute!
Mm-hmm. Mm!
You got a beautiful smile,
girl. Whoo!
Thank you.
You're next, beautiful.
Come here.
And when we're done here,
I need you to speak to my man
about attending our after party.
That sexy man right there.
You see him?
(LAUGHS) God,
I love Spring Break!
(CHEERING) Whoo!
Got a half-strawberry,
half-pineapple daiquiri for...
Emily? Yes, that's me.
Thanks. JASON: I'll take those.
Hi. Remember me?
You waited on me last year.
Okay.
Can you do something for me?
I'm trying to get in touch
with this woman
who works in the kitchen.
Sky.
Sky Garibaldi?
Yeah.
She's not here anymore.
Damn it, I-I really needed
to talk to her.
What do you need
to talk to her about?
(SIGHS) Nothing. It's fine.
Hey! Emily, wait!
POOL BARTENDER: Hey, Jason.
Cabana Three.
♪♪
SANTIAGO: Hey!
Bossman.
Is the music too loud?
You coming to shut me down?
Just the opposite.
I want to thank you.
Although you are
a pain in the neck,
this is our best
Spring Break ever.
Mm! Bring it in for
a hug, papi. Come on!
That won't be necessary.
(CHUCKLES)
Look, you have helped us
turn this place around.
Yo!
If there's anything
I can ever do for you...
Can I get my motorcycle back?
No.
(LAUGHS)
WOMAN: Yeah.
Dad, I know you were nervous,
but we are kicking ass!
We're overbooked,
drink sales are up...
SANTIAGO: Wait, wait,
wait, wait. Wait, wait.
What's happening?
Go. Hold up.
Hey, hey, hey, excuse me.
Where is everyone going?
The hotel next door.
The Finn?
$5 cover, all the booze
you can drink!
- We're out of here!
- Wait a second.
What?
They're practically
giving away drinks.
You can't make money like that.
Finn doesn't care
about the money.
He just wants to hurt us.
And it's working.
♪ What what what? ♪
♪ We got two cups ♪
Everybody's leaving.
(SIGHS) I'm losing
all my customers.
Well, I found 'em.
Heading straight to the bar.
You should have warned me.
That's why you're there.
I know, and I'm trying,
but Finn won't let me into
his inner circle.
This place is
a total boy's club.
Where are we on the debt?
Well, Mateo's people expect
a payment next month.
But if this guy Finn
ruins Spring Break,
I won't make it.
So then what are we gonna do?
I mean, these kids, they come
to Miami for two things...
Booze and sunshine.
And Finn's giving them both
for free.
Let's see if we can change that.
♪♪
(TIRES SQUEAL)
Welcome to the Finn.
Pool bar is right this way.
Hey.
I missed the part of the play
where Romeo stabs Juliet
in the back.
So, you saw the flyer...
And the hashtag.
And the sky banner.
You're actively coming
for our guests.
We're rival hotels...
Isn't that kind of the deal?
I guess.
We talked about this, remember?
We are not the Finn
and the Riviera Grand...
We are Oliver and Alicia.
Look, if we're gonna
make this work,
we have to keep
the business separate
from our relationship.
(SIGHS)
You're right. I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Can I take you to dinner
tomorrow night?
We can go to your place.
It sounds like you can use the business.
(CHUCKLES)
So, that's how you're gonna play this?
Mm-hmm.
Don't forget, guys,
all the booze you can drink.
So order top-shelf!
- Yeah, she's right.
- She's right!
MAN: Yeah!
She was super anxious
about finding Sky.
And when I said
that she wasn't here,
she got all weird and bolted.
We've got to find her.
Do you remember anything
about her?
Her name was Emily.
That's a start. What else?
Well, she ordered
a half-strawberry,
half-pineapple daiquiri.
Which is pretty trashy,
even for Spring Break.
I mean something useful.
She was blondish,
cuteish,
she was kinda sunburnt,
and she had a lower-back tattoo.
(INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS)
WOMEN: Cheers!
Great.
You just described
half the girls here.
GIGI: Yolanda, honey.
I've been looking
all over for you.
Are you avoiding me?
Why would I do that?
Could it be the stabbing pain
of your rejection?
Yolanda... I'm sorry.
You caught me off-guard.
Okay? I needed time to...
To process, you know?
But I promise you that was not
a reflection of how I feel.
Really?
You're my daughter, mami,
and I love you
and accept you completely.
I don't have a problem
if you're gay.
I never said I was gay.
I'm queer.
Is... Is... Isn't that
the same thing?
No, "queer" means
I don't believe in
a binary nature of sexuality.
I just like who I like.
Wonderful!
Yeah, that's great. (CHUCKLES)
Um... So...
Is it possible you could someday
maybe end up liking a man?
(SCOFFS) And there it is.
That's the only way
you'll be okay with it?
If I end up with a guy?
Of... Of course not, Yoli.
I'm just trying...
