1
00:00:00,235 --> 00:00:01,807
Gossip Girl here,
2
00:00:01,830 --> 00:00:03,027
your one and only source,
3
00:00:03,034 --> 00:00:05,740
into the scandalous lives of Manhattan's elite.
4
00:00:05,772 --> 00:00:08,352
Dan's serial is continuing in Vanity Fair.
5
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:09,486
Dan, we had a deal!
6
00:00:09,518 --> 00:00:11,692
Vanity Fair is the big time.
And the more readers I have
7
00:00:11,731 --> 00:00:13,624
the more power I have. It's that simple.
8
00:00:13,655 --> 00:00:14,828
Dan wrote the truth.
9
00:00:14,859 --> 00:00:16,118
We are together.
10
00:00:16,238 --> 00:00:17,941
And I want you,
11
00:00:18,061 --> 00:00:19,958
by my side,
12
00:00:19,997 --> 00:00:22,289
here, and at the gallery opening.
13
00:00:22,344 --> 00:00:23,736
Are you Dan Humphrey?
14
00:00:23,763 --> 00:00:24,897
I am.
15
00:00:24,899 --> 00:00:26,398
I read your piece in "The Spectator" today.
16
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:27,466
Can I buy you a drink?
17
00:00:27,468 --> 00:00:29,118
Absolutely.
18
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:30,686
Did this really happen? You and Serena?
19
00:00:30,688 --> 00:00:32,654
Every dirty detail, exactly as it occurred.
20
00:00:32,656 --> 00:00:35,774
She said she erased it, but
did you actually see her do it?
21
00:00:35,776 --> 00:00:36,942
What is wrong with you?
22
00:00:36,944 --> 00:00:39,161
You had someone who
loved you unconditionally,
23
00:00:39,163 --> 00:00:40,729
and you threw that all away
24
00:00:40,731 --> 00:00:43,732
to let Chuck Bass decide
when he's ready for you?
25
00:00:43,734 --> 00:00:45,918
I just have a few questions about a weekend
26
00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:48,504
you spent with Bart in
Dubai about four years ago.
27
00:00:48,506 --> 00:00:52,841
Dave drove Bart to meet
someone named lady Alexander.
28
00:00:52,843 --> 00:00:56,912
I don't know who she is or even
where to start looking for her.
29
00:00:56,914 --> 00:00:58,497
We will find her.
30
00:00:59,549 --> 00:01:02,017
And who am I?
31
00:01:02,019 --> 00:01:05,387
That's a secret I'll never tell.
32
00:01:05,389 --> 00:01:07,272
You know you love me.
33
00:01:07,274 --> 00:01:09,591

Extra, extra, read all about it...
36
00:01:16,283 --> 00:01:19,118
the latest upper east
sider to take center stage
37
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,036
in the social spotlight.
38
00:01:21,038 --> 00:01:22,604
But you know what they say?
39
00:01:22,606 --> 00:01:25,607
If you can't take the heat,
then move to Hell's Kitchen.
40
00:01:27,294 --> 00:01:30,646
"Nate Archibald has the
opposite of the Midas touch.
41
00:01:30,648 --> 00:01:32,948
Instead of everything he
touches turning to gold,
42
00:01:32,950 --> 00:01:35,000
he turns all the gold
he's been given to dust."
43
00:01:35,002 --> 00:01:36,084
Your friend's poor, right?
44
00:01:36,086 --> 00:01:37,669
I mean, he's probably just jealous.
45
00:01:37,671 --> 00:01:39,671
Oh, first of all, Dan screwed me over
46
00:01:39,673 --> 00:01:41,356
by selling the
serialization of his new book
47
00:01:41,358 --> 00:01:43,058
right out from under me,
48
00:01:43,060 --> 00:01:44,343
and then he releases the chapter about me.
49
00:01:44,345 --> 00:01:45,677
You look really hot in the picture.
50
00:01:45,679 --> 00:01:47,563
Who cares what it says?
51
00:01:47,565 --> 00:01:48,764
He's saying that
52
00:01:48,766 --> 00:01:49,815
I'm single-handedly
destroying "The Spectator."
53
00:01:49,817 --> 00:01:52,634
Okay, enough. This Dan guy is full of it.
54
00:01:52,636 --> 00:01:54,770
No, actually, if he was making stuff up,
55
00:01:54,772 --> 00:01:58,106
you know, I'd be mad, but I'd get over it.
56
00:01:58,108 --> 00:02:00,242
Thing is, he's right.
57
00:02:00,244 --> 00:02:03,245
"The Spectator" is in
serious financial trouble,
58
00:02:03,247 --> 00:02:05,814
and it's all my fault.
59
00:02:05,816 --> 00:02:07,332
It's why I'm meeting
with the bank later today
60
00:02:07,334 --> 00:02:09,785
to hopefully extend our credit line.
61
00:02:09,787 --> 00:02:11,537
Can I help? Please.
62
00:02:11,539 --> 00:02:12,921
I am dying for an excuse to skip brunch
63
00:02:12,923 --> 00:02:14,990
with my dad and Serena Van Der Floozy.
64
00:02:16,377 --> 00:02:17,826
No, that's nice, but
you should go to brunch,
65
00:02:17,828 --> 00:02:19,378
and you should be nice
to Serena, all right?
66
00:02:19,380 --> 00:02:20,629
She's the one who convinced your dad
67
00:02:20,631 --> 00:02:23,432
to let us keep dating, all
right? Give her a chance.
68
00:02:23,434 --> 00:02:24,600
Your article on Nate
69
00:02:24,602 --> 00:02:26,685
is generating major online buzz.
70
00:02:26,687 --> 00:02:28,003
Huffpo has a link on their main page,
71
00:02:28,005 --> 00:02:29,721
and Dwight Garner just tweeted about it,
72
00:02:29,723 --> 00:02:32,224
saying that he's halfway
through and doesn't hate it yet.
73
00:02:32,226 --> 00:02:35,527
Even "Gossip Girl" gave us a nice plug.
74
00:02:35,529 --> 00:02:37,679
Overall, the reaction's been positive...
75
00:02:37,681 --> 00:02:39,281
for you, that is. Not for Nate.
76
00:02:39,283 --> 00:02:40,866
Are they talking about
how the use of real names
77
00:02:40,868 --> 00:02:42,784
makes this my "In cold blood"?
78
00:02:42,786 --> 00:02:44,203
I mean, do they like the writing?
79
00:02:44,205 --> 00:02:46,455
Are they making any comparisons
to historical literary figures?
80
00:02:46,457 --> 00:02:48,574
Perez Hilton. But the important thing
81
00:02:48,576 --> 00:02:50,191
is that they're talking about it.
82
00:02:50,193 --> 00:02:51,326
Literary celebrity is fleeting.
83
00:02:51,328 --> 00:02:52,828
We have to make the most of it.
84
00:02:52,830 --> 00:02:55,080
Trust me. I have been.
85
00:02:55,082 --> 00:02:58,500
I am not talking about trolling
for lit groupies at McNally's
86
00:02:58,502 --> 00:03:00,052
and sleeping with your coffee dates.
87
00:03:00,054 --> 00:03:02,671
Well, that's how I'm finding
a bed to sleep in every night.
88
00:03:02,673 --> 00:03:05,007
Look, being a writer in 2012
89
00:03:05,009 --> 00:03:07,259
isn't merely about the
words that you write.
90
00:03:07,261 --> 00:03:08,560
It's about your image.
91
00:03:08,562 --> 00:03:10,229
So from now on, you're only
going to be seen with girls
92
00:03:10,231 --> 00:03:13,214
who have Ivy League pedigrees,
or, at the very least, Vassar.
93
00:03:13,216 --> 00:03:14,566
She needs to have cover girl looks
94
00:03:14,568 --> 00:03:16,151
and at least three mentions in "Page Six"
95
00:03:16,153 --> 00:03:17,486
in the last six months.
96
00:03:17,488 --> 00:03:19,488
How exactly am I gonna do that?
97
00:03:19,490 --> 00:03:21,023
I've already set up the interviews.
98
00:03:27,914 --> 00:03:29,748
This is the guy my daughter's dating?
99
00:03:29,750 --> 00:03:31,533
Have you read this article on Nate?
100
00:03:31,535 --> 00:03:34,235
Oh, I'm not a fan of the
author's previous work.
101
00:03:34,237 --> 00:03:35,621
Well, let me summarize for you.
102
00:03:35,623 --> 00:03:37,906
His last girlfriend was a madam.
103
00:03:37,908 --> 00:03:40,759
Before that, he dated
con artists with an "S"
104
00:03:40,761 --> 00:03:42,628
because, yes, there was more than one.
105
00:03:42,630 --> 00:03:44,346
Your friend Dan wrote all this?
106
00:03:44,348 --> 00:03:45,714
Dan Humphrey's a douche.
107
00:03:45,716 --> 00:03:49,084
Well, you can forget about dating
the guy in this article ever again.
108
00:03:49,086 --> 00:03:50,135
That's fine by me.
109
00:03:50,137 --> 00:03:51,603
Nate is nothing like
the guy in that article.
110
00:03:51,605 --> 00:03:54,523
Well, I don't know what Dan
wrote, but I can vouch for Nate.
111
00:03:54,525 --> 00:03:56,525
He's kind and honest and a good friend.
112
00:03:56,527 --> 00:03:58,977
And... and he cares about Sage a lot.
113
00:03:58,979 --> 00:04:00,929
You should get to know
him before you judge him.
114
00:04:00,931 --> 00:04:02,447
Or at least before you hit him again.
115
00:04:02,449 --> 00:04:04,850
Dad, can he come to the horse show with us?
116
00:04:04,852 --> 00:04:05,951
This afternoon?
117
00:04:05,953 --> 00:04:08,070
No, that's always been our thing.
118
00:04:08,072 --> 00:04:09,488
Oh, come on. You hate it, and you know it.
119
00:04:09,490 --> 00:04:11,740
It'll give you someone to talk
about football with instead.
120
00:04:11,742 --> 00:04:13,041
Nate loves football.
121
00:04:13,043 --> 00:04:16,111
See? Look, we're already
finding things to bond over.
122
00:04:16,113 --> 00:04:19,280
Oh, I guess he can join us.
123
00:04:19,282 --> 00:04:20,832
It'll give me a chance to talk to him.
124
00:04:20,834 --> 00:04:22,634
Possibly threaten his life.
125
00:04:22,636 --> 00:04:24,252
I'll see if he can come.
126
00:04:24,254 --> 00:04:25,304
Thanks, dad.
127
00:04:25,306 --> 00:04:27,139
You, too, Serena.
128
00:04:31,728 --> 00:04:33,294
Did you see that?
129
00:04:33,296 --> 00:04:34,763
She almost smiled at me.
130
00:04:34,765 --> 00:04:36,098
Hmm.
131
00:04:36,100 --> 00:04:37,349
And don't worry about Nate.
You'll really like him.
132
00:04:37,351 --> 00:04:38,517
He's the best.
133
00:04:38,519 --> 00:04:42,521
Well, you would know.
When were you gonna tell me
134
00:04:42,523 --> 00:04:45,941
you've had sex with my
daughter's boyfriend?
135
00:04:50,747 --> 00:04:52,948
Okay.
136
00:04:52,950 --> 00:04:55,701
This is definitely a... a fire hazard.
137
00:04:55,703 --> 00:04:59,755
I think it's time to unpack
the boxes Lily sent over.
138
00:04:59,757 --> 00:05:02,174
Sorry, I've been so busy
with this new gallery opening.
139
00:05:02,176 --> 00:05:03,675
I'm actually headed over there now.
140
00:05:03,677 --> 00:05:05,627
Don't take this the wrong way,
141
00:05:05,629 --> 00:05:08,897
but maybe you're using
the gallery as an excuse
142
00:05:08,899 --> 00:05:11,433
to avoid going through your old life.
143
00:05:11,435 --> 00:05:13,101
Oh, that's ridiculous.
144
00:05:13,103 --> 00:05:14,853
Is it?
145
00:05:14,855 --> 00:05:19,141
These boxes are full of stuff
from your time with Lily,
146
00:05:19,143 --> 00:05:21,727
and I can see how revisiting those memories
147
00:05:21,729 --> 00:05:24,229
could be difficult.
148
00:05:24,231 --> 00:05:27,566
Look, let me help. I will unpack the boxes,
149
00:05:27,568 --> 00:05:30,285
and when you come back, they'll be gone.
150
00:05:30,287 --> 00:05:32,120
That would be nice.
151
00:05:32,122 --> 00:05:34,689
Keep the things that we
can use around the loft
152
00:05:34,691 --> 00:05:37,659
and just throw everything else out.
153
00:05:47,703 --> 00:05:49,588
Gosh.
154
00:06:05,989 --> 00:06:08,490
"May 17, 2008.
155
00:06:08,492 --> 00:06:13,328
Dear Rufus, last night was
the best night of my life"
156
00:06:13,330 --> 00:06:15,163
It's kind of a big deal not to mention.
157
00:06:16,950 --> 00:06:19,668
I wasn't trying to hide my past with Nate.
158
00:06:19,670 --> 00:06:21,002
I swear it was a long time ago.
159
00:06:21,004 --> 00:06:22,587
We're just friends now, and besides,
160
00:06:22,589 --> 00:06:24,405
when is something like
that supposed to come up?
161
00:06:24,407 --> 00:06:25,707
I don't know.
162
00:06:25,709 --> 00:06:28,710
Maybe the second he
started dating my daughter?
163
00:06:28,712 --> 00:06:29,878
Sage knows, and she doesn't care.
164
00:06:29,880 --> 00:06:31,179
I don't see what the big deal is.
165
00:06:31,181 --> 00:06:32,881
I don't know everyone
that you've been with.
166
00:06:32,883 --> 00:06:34,082
You're right.
167
00:06:34,084 --> 00:06:35,450
We both have pasts,
168
00:06:35,452 --> 00:06:38,103
but mine's not about to be
chronicled in a magazine.
169
00:06:38,105 --> 00:06:41,306
There's bound to be a
Serena chapter soon, right?
170
00:06:42,442 --> 00:06:44,943
Maybe it's time we have the conversation...
171
00:06:44,945 --> 00:06:47,095
Discuss everyone we've been wit to avoid
172
00:06:47,097 --> 00:06:49,281
any more embarrassing surprises
in print or at parties.
173
00:06:49,283 --> 00:06:50,782
Everyone?
174
00:06:50,784 --> 00:06:52,651
Well, within reason.
175
00:06:54,436 --> 00:06:57,072
Second base and beyond.
176
00:06:57,074 --> 00:06:59,291
Kissing doesn't count.
177
00:06:59,293 --> 00:07:01,543
I think it's a great idea.
178
00:07:01,545 --> 00:07:04,579
I just have to run an errand first.
179
00:07:04,581 --> 00:07:06,081
When you get back then.
180
00:07:20,430 --> 00:07:22,347
That Eleanor again?
181
00:07:22,349 --> 00:07:25,350
Debriefing my mother on
Waldorf Designs can wait.
182
00:07:25,352 --> 00:07:26,735
She knows I have no buyers,
183
00:07:26,737 --> 00:07:28,687
and she's just calling to yell at me.
184
00:07:28,689 --> 00:07:30,822
Besides, I have much more
pressing business to attend to,
185
00:07:30,824 --> 00:07:32,491
like finding Lady Alexander,
186
00:07:32,493 --> 00:07:35,644
whoever and wherever she may be.
187
00:07:35,646 --> 00:07:36,711
Now I've gone through
the peerage registries
188
00:07:36,713 --> 00:07:38,864
of all the royals in Western Europe,
189
00:07:38,866 --> 00:07:42,617
and the closest I could find
was a Lady Alexandria of Lisbon,
190
00:07:42,619 --> 00:07:45,620
but she died 50 years ago in
a Portuguese mental hospital.
191
00:07:45,622 --> 00:07:48,123
I am starting to think my father
192
00:07:48,125 --> 00:07:50,625
had his bodyguard feed us bad intel.
193
00:07:50,627 --> 00:07:52,794
That is in Bart's playbook,
194
00:07:52,796 --> 00:07:56,097
but I'm having one of
those psychic hunches I get,
195
00:07:56,099 --> 00:07:57,999
like when I predicted tom
and Katie wouldn't last.
196
00:07:58,001 --> 00:08:00,001
You didn't have to be
psychic to call that one.
197
00:08:00,003 --> 00:08:02,771
I know this may be a little crazy.
198
00:08:02,773 --> 00:08:06,725
My mother has a friend called Lady Vaughn,
199
00:08:06,727 --> 00:08:09,528
only "Lady" isn't her title. It's her name.
200
00:08:09,530 --> 00:08:11,613
She literally changed it
to sound more important
201
00:08:11,615 --> 00:08:14,182
so she could sit on the
boards of all the big museums,
202
00:08:14,184 --> 00:08:16,201
and it worked.
203
00:08:16,203 --> 00:08:18,119
Maybe Lady Alexander did the same.
204
00:08:19,239 --> 00:08:20,488
There she is.
205
00:08:20,490 --> 00:08:22,374
Lady Alexander.
206
00:08:22,376 --> 00:08:23,542
But it says she's not on the board.
207
00:08:23,544 --> 00:08:26,545
It's a portrait in a private showing.
208
00:08:26,547 --> 00:08:28,797
By the artist Brian Batt.
209
00:08:28,799 --> 00:08:31,032
I know him! I mean, I... I know his work.
210
00:08:31,034 --> 00:08:32,250
He has a studio downtown.
211
00:08:32,252 --> 00:08:36,421
I always wanted to
commission a portrait of you.
212
00:08:38,374 --> 00:08:40,642
Hmm.
213
00:08:45,566 --> 00:08:47,816
What's wrong? The eggs overcooked again?
214
00:08:47,818 --> 00:08:49,150
No. Well, actually, yes,
215
00:08:49,152 --> 00:08:50,318
but that's not what's so upsetting.
216
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:51,937
Eric just texted me from Sarah Lawrence
217
00:08:51,939 --> 00:08:54,356
telling me I was on "Gossip Girl".
218
00:08:55,825 --> 00:08:57,075
This is about our wedding?
219
00:08:57,077 --> 00:08:59,894
No, the night before,
when I slept with Rufus.
220
00:08:59,896 --> 00:09:02,230
That's old news.
221
00:09:02,232 --> 00:09:04,565
I have no idea why I'm
suddenly on the radar
222
00:09:04,567 --> 00:09:06,001
of this childish blog.
223
00:09:06,003 --> 00:09:07,735
I think it's fairly
obvious what kind of child
224
00:09:07,737 --> 00:09:09,737
would be putting out such stories.
225
00:09:09,739 --> 00:09:12,874
Charles?
226
00:09:12,876 --> 00:09:14,459
No, he would never.
227
00:09:14,461 --> 00:09:16,544
He shipped a woman in from Dubai
228
00:09:16,546 --> 00:09:18,346
to drive a wedge in between us.
229
00:09:18,348 --> 00:09:21,433
I'm sorry he keeps
dragging you into our fight.
230
00:09:21,435 --> 00:09:23,885
Well, maybe that's why he
hasn't returned my calls.
231
00:09:23,887 --> 00:09:27,422
I'll take care of it.
232
00:09:27,424 --> 00:09:28,773
Okay.
233
00:09:34,231 --> 00:09:37,065
I love how you combine
the classic portraiture
234
00:09:37,067 --> 00:09:39,117
with pop culture,
235
00:09:39,119 --> 00:09:42,871
but we really came to see your
portrait of Lady Alexander.
236
00:09:42,873 --> 00:09:45,606
Friends of ours saw it in
your private show at the MET,
237
00:09:45,608 --> 00:09:47,325
and they suggest we mimic the style.
238
00:09:47,327 --> 00:09:49,544
I wanna do the exact same pose.
239
00:09:49,546 --> 00:09:50,612
I think you've got the wrong guy.
240
00:09:50,614 --> 00:09:52,113
I don't do that sort of thing.
241
00:09:52,115 --> 00:09:53,748
Obviously, we wouldn't want to compromise
242
00:09:53,750 --> 00:09:57,452
your artistic integrity by
recreating someone else's pose.
243
00:09:57,454 --> 00:09:58,953
Unless it's okay with her.
244
00:09:58,955 --> 00:10:00,672
And we tripled your fee.
245
00:10:00,674 --> 00:10:03,958
I don't mind calling Lady Alexander myself.
246
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,261
See, I generally don't
take no for an answer.
247
00:10:06,263 --> 00:10:08,980
So if you'd simply
provide a phone number...
248
00:10:08,982 --> 00:10:12,901
Looks like Chuck's Midas
touch is still intact.
249
00:10:12,903 --> 00:10:16,804
I really hope we're not talking
about the same Lady Alexander.
250
00:10:16,806 --> 00:10:18,757
Here she is.
251
00:10:18,759 --> 00:10:22,243
But a horse by any other
name is still a horse.
252
00:10:24,646 --> 00:10:28,925
And Chuck and Blair
can't seem to buy a clue.
253
00:10:41,407 --> 00:10:43,825
Assuming that Lady Alexander
isn't related to Mr. Ed,
254
00:10:43,827 --> 00:10:45,360
it appears we've hit another dead end.
255
00:10:45,362 --> 00:10:46,811
Well, not exactly.
256
00:10:46,813 --> 00:10:48,446
Thoroughbred registries
have all the important info
257
00:10:48,448 --> 00:10:51,499
on every sale, such as
prices and previous owners.
258
00:10:51,501 --> 00:10:52,950
It's like M.L.S. for horses.
259
00:10:52,952 --> 00:10:54,985
So find the horse, find the owner.
260
00:10:54,987 --> 00:10:58,122
Here she is... Lady Alexander.
261
00:10:58,124 --> 00:11:00,875
It says she was bought four years ago
262
00:11:00,877 --> 00:11:02,126
by Bartholomew Bass.
263
00:11:02,128 --> 00:11:03,378
What else does it say?
264
00:11:03,380 --> 00:11:06,464
Well, not much except she
was just under $1 million.
265
00:11:06,466 --> 00:11:07,665
Is that a lot of money?
266
00:11:07,667 --> 00:11:08,833
For regular people, yes.
267
00:11:08,835 --> 00:11:10,351
I meant for a horse.
268
00:11:12,222 --> 00:11:14,389
I didn't realize your father
was such a horse enthusiast.
269
00:11:14,391 --> 00:11:15,673
He's not.
270
00:11:15,675 --> 00:11:16,774
Well, then...
271
00:11:16,776 --> 00:11:20,611
Why did he buy a dozen
thoroughbreds in a single month?
272
00:11:20,613 --> 00:11:22,780
Let me see that.
273
00:11:22,782 --> 00:11:25,733
It says here he bought them
all from the same man in Dubai.
274
00:11:25,735 --> 00:11:27,034
I don't recognize the name,
275
00:11:27,036 --> 00:11:28,202
and I've been through
the Bass Industries books
276
00:11:28,204 --> 00:11:29,704
with a fine-toothed comb.
277
00:11:29,706 --> 00:11:32,740
Maybe your father's secret is
that he's just into horses...
278
00:11:32,742 --> 00:11:34,375
really, really expensive horses.
279
00:11:34,377 --> 00:11:36,244
I doubt he'd pay off Amira for that.
280
00:11:36,246 --> 00:11:38,162
I need to find Sheikh Hassan.
281
00:11:38,164 --> 00:11:41,582
There is a big 3-day horse show going on
282
00:11:41,584 --> 00:11:43,050
just outside the city right now.
283
00:11:43,052 --> 00:11:44,552
I saw it on one of the registries.
284
00:11:44,554 --> 00:11:46,838
It... it attracts an
elite international crowd.
285
00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,372
Maybe if the Sheikh isn't there himself,
286
00:11:48,374 --> 00:11:49,707
he has people there for him?
287
00:11:49,709 --> 00:11:51,676
Looks like we're back in the saddle.
288
00:11:53,178 --> 00:11:54,979
You... you have a house
in the Hamptons, too?
289
00:11:54,981 --> 00:11:56,597
And in Aspen and in St. Barth's, too.
290
00:11:56,599 --> 00:12:00,485
Sorry. Tiffany. Time's up.
Don't call us. We'll call you.
291
00:12:03,573 --> 00:12:05,273
Okay, you both know the drill.
292
00:12:05,275 --> 00:12:06,891
Skip the small talk and
get down to business.
293
00:12:06,893 --> 00:12:08,242
You have five minutes.
294
00:12:11,114 --> 00:12:12,997
Serena.
295
00:12:12,999 --> 00:12:14,365
Are you here to interview for the position?
296
00:12:14,367 --> 00:12:15,867
I'm sorry. Do you work here now?
297
00:12:15,869 --> 00:12:17,335
As if.
298
00:12:17,337 --> 00:12:19,203
I'm pimping out celebutantes
for Dan to have sex with.
299
00:12:19,205 --> 00:12:21,839
If you're interested,
you can, uh, get in line.
300
00:12:24,594 --> 00:12:27,044
Uh, Dan told me to meet him
here. I'll just be two minutes.
301
00:12:27,046 --> 00:12:28,296
That's fine,
302
00:12:28,298 --> 00:12:30,548
but I'm going to have to
ask you to leave your bag.
303
00:12:30,550 --> 00:12:33,634
We can't risk any
unauthorized recording devices.
304
00:12:33,636 --> 00:12:35,353
His words are worth too much.
305
00:12:40,225 --> 00:12:42,977
No, the bank has all my paperwork, okay?
306
00:12:42,979 --> 00:12:46,147
And you've seen the
numbers, and they're good.
307
00:12:46,149 --> 00:12:47,398
No, I... I get that there's a lot of money
308
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:48,900
going out the door each month, okay?
309
00:12:48,902 --> 00:12:51,068
But just, with a little more time,
310
00:12:51,070 --> 00:12:52,403
I know I can turn things around.
311
00:12:52,405 --> 00:12:53,905
I understand. Thank you.
312
00:12:53,907 --> 00:12:55,072
Who let you in here?
313
00:12:55,074 --> 00:12:57,542
That article this morning
was unfairly biased.
314
00:12:57,544 --> 00:12:59,577
It's my job to report on
other people's business.
315
00:12:59,579 --> 00:13:01,412
I'd be a hypocrite to get upset about it.
316
00:13:01,414 --> 00:13:02,547
Plus, "The Spectator" just got plugged
317
00:13:02,549 --> 00:13:04,215
in a popular national magazine.
318
00:13:04,217 --> 00:13:05,383
The glass is half full approach, huh?
319
00:13:05,385 --> 00:13:06,517
Yeah.
320
00:13:06,519 --> 00:13:08,135
I know your paper is in trouble.
321
00:13:08,137 --> 00:13:09,837
I also know that you are a lot smarter
322
00:13:09,839 --> 00:13:11,672
than that article makes you out to be.
323
00:13:11,674 --> 00:13:14,392
So I am here to offer you some relief.
324
00:13:16,294 --> 00:13:18,679
Let's talk.
325
00:13:20,732 --> 00:13:22,650
So what's so important you
had to see me in person?
326
00:13:22,652 --> 00:13:23,968
And allow Georgina to frisk you?
327
00:13:23,970 --> 00:13:27,004
I... I need to know, did
you write a chapter about me?
328
00:13:27,006 --> 00:13:28,272
Of course I did.
329
00:13:28,274 --> 00:13:30,691
You really think my father
or Nate are more interesting
330
00:13:30,693 --> 00:13:32,410
than the infamous Serena Van Der Woodsen?
331
00:13:32,412 --> 00:13:34,645
Okay, but I need to know what's
in it and when it comes out.
332
00:13:34,647 --> 00:13:36,197
Well, that would ruin all the fun.
333
00:13:36,199 --> 00:13:38,148
Dan, I'm serious.
334
00:13:38,150 --> 00:13:39,617
Did you write about that night
335
00:13:39,619 --> 00:13:42,203
that we were together at
the Campbell apartment?
336
00:13:42,205 --> 00:13:44,755
Relax. I didn't publish any of that.
337
00:13:45,959 --> 00:13:47,091
But not to protect you.
338
00:13:47,093 --> 00:13:48,259
Um, because it was the
most humiliating thing
339
00:13:48,261 --> 00:13:49,961
I've ever been a part of. But don't worry.
340
00:13:49,963 --> 00:13:51,913
There's... there's gonna be
some good stuff in your chapter.
341
00:13:53,383 --> 00:13:55,099
I think I might even
include a little tidbit
342
00:13:55,101 --> 00:13:57,602
of this desperate conversation.
343
00:13:58,837 --> 00:14:00,521
Wow, I... I can't believe
344
00:14:00,523 --> 00:14:02,023
I ever loved someone who could write
345
00:14:02,025 --> 00:14:04,058
such awful things about
his friends and family.
346
00:14:04,060 --> 00:14:05,776
Right, 'cause you were
thinking about my feelings
347
00:14:05,778 --> 00:14:06,894
when you made that sex tape.
348
00:14:06,896 --> 00:14:08,345
You know what?
349
00:14:08,347 --> 00:14:10,147
The worst part is you actually
seem to be enjoying it.
350
00:14:10,149 --> 00:14:12,483
Serena, wait a second. Wait.
351
00:14:15,020 --> 00:14:16,287
On your way out, just let Georgina know
352
00:14:16,289 --> 00:14:18,122
that I gotta take a bathroom break.
353
00:14:19,541 --> 00:14:20,908
Thanks for stopping by.
354
00:14:20,910 --> 00:14:24,378
Uh, Dan says have the next
girl meet him in the bathroom.
355
00:14:24,380 --> 00:14:26,130
Mmm. That's more like it.
356
00:14:28,668 --> 00:14:32,753
Hey. I just finished my errand.
Yeah, I got everything I needed.
357
00:14:32,755 --> 00:14:36,007
So... you back "The Spectator,"
358
00:14:36,009 --> 00:14:38,309
and I put out fluff pieces on you and Lily
359
00:14:38,311 --> 00:14:40,761
to offset her bad press on "Gossip Girl"?
360
00:14:40,763 --> 00:14:43,264
I know you did well with
that article on Rufus,
361
00:14:43,266 --> 00:14:46,601
and mature readers help broaden your demo.
362
00:14:46,603 --> 00:14:49,353
You will have the extra cash you need.
363
00:14:49,355 --> 00:14:50,821
And as for me,
364
00:14:50,823 --> 00:14:53,224
a happy wife is a happy life.
365
00:14:53,226 --> 00:14:55,392
Hmm.
366
00:14:55,394 --> 00:14:56,861
Next thing I know,
367
00:14:56,863 --> 00:14:59,063
you'll be asking me to write
bad press on Chuck, huh?
368
00:14:59,065 --> 00:15:01,449
I'm not looking for
another partner. I'm sorry.
369
00:15:01,451 --> 00:15:03,400
I'm gonna handle this one on my own.
370
00:15:03,402 --> 00:15:05,369
I have no doubt you will succeed,
371
00:15:05,371 --> 00:15:07,371
especially if you've inherited
your father's gift with numbers.
372
00:15:09,574 --> 00:15:11,792
He was always so...
373
00:15:11,794 --> 00:15:13,177
inventive.
374
00:15:31,698 --> 00:15:32,863
Hey, it's Nate.
375
00:15:32,865 --> 00:15:36,600
Listen, I have a business
proposition for you.
376
00:15:44,377 --> 00:15:47,628
Well... at least I know
your phone is working.
377
00:15:47,630 --> 00:15:49,947
What I don't know is why
you're avoiding my calls.
378
00:15:49,949 --> 00:15:51,999
It's nothing personal.
379
00:15:52,001 --> 00:15:54,135
As you know, I've been avoiding my father.
380
00:15:54,137 --> 00:15:56,587
And, well, you're married to him.
381
00:15:56,589 --> 00:16:00,091
Does that mean you're behind the
stories about me on "Gossip Girl"?
382
00:16:00,093 --> 00:16:01,892
Is that what he told you?
383
00:16:01,894 --> 00:16:05,629
I hope you know I would never
do something like that to you.
384
00:16:05,631 --> 00:16:08,065
Well, I needed to hear it from you.
385
00:16:08,067 --> 00:16:10,651
I also need for you to end
this feud with your father.
386
00:16:10,653 --> 00:16:12,520
I love both of you,
387
00:16:12,522 --> 00:16:15,139
and I can't stand to be in the
middle of it a second longer.
388
00:16:15,141 --> 00:16:17,358
I appreciate your desire
to bring us back together,
389
00:16:17,360 --> 00:16:20,077
but we were never close to begin with.
390
00:16:20,079 --> 00:16:22,980
The man's idea of father/son bonding
391
00:16:22,982 --> 00:16:24,782
was teaching me how to diversify bonds.
392
00:16:24,784 --> 00:16:27,068
It's always been business between us.
393
00:16:27,070 --> 00:16:28,485
Well, I got us tickets to the horse show,
394
00:16:28,487 --> 00:16:29,820
but it starts in an hour,
395
00:16:29,822 --> 00:16:30,988
so...
396
00:16:30,990 --> 00:16:33,040
Oh. Hello, Lily.
397
00:16:33,042 --> 00:16:35,492
Oh, well, you don't mean the
one at the Stone Orchard stables?
398
00:16:35,494 --> 00:16:38,295
It is. I... I don't...
399
00:16:39,431 --> 00:16:41,048
Chuck?
400
00:16:41,050 --> 00:16:42,767
Oh, I haven't been in
years. It's a fabulous event.
401
00:16:42,769 --> 00:16:45,052
And a wonderful opportunity,
Charles, for you and your father
402
00:16:45,054 --> 00:16:47,337
to talk about something other than business
403
00:16:47,339 --> 00:16:49,807
and start to make amends. I'm
gonna see if he's available.
404
00:16:49,809 --> 00:16:53,077
Oh, please. No, don't tell
him. This should be a surprise.
405
00:17:03,354 --> 00:17:06,290
Well, that was fast.
406
00:17:06,292 --> 00:17:09,026
So... what's this big business opportunity
407
00:17:09,028 --> 00:17:10,544
you mentioned on the phone?
408
00:17:10,546 --> 00:17:12,163
Mind if I come in?
409
00:17:12,165 --> 00:17:14,465
Looks like Chuck and
Blair aren't the only ones
410
00:17:14,467 --> 00:17:16,917
with a surprise visitor.
411
00:17:16,919 --> 00:17:23,991
So much for Golden Boy going it alone.
412
00:17:25,179 --> 00:17:26,279
So what's with all the boxes?
413
00:17:26,281 --> 00:17:28,197
Are you moving in, or is Rufus moving out?
414
00:17:28,199 --> 00:17:30,816
It's Rufus' stuff from Lily's.
415
00:17:32,286 --> 00:17:35,020
I know you released the
story about Rufus suing Dan,
416
00:17:35,022 --> 00:17:37,206
so I figured out you might also be behind
417
00:17:37,208 --> 00:17:41,010
all the stories about
Lily on "Gossip Girl."
418
00:17:41,012 --> 00:17:42,828
Ooh.
419
00:17:42,830 --> 00:17:45,381
Well, now I know where
you got all the ammo from.
420
00:17:45,383 --> 00:17:47,866
Lily acts so high and mighty,
421
00:17:47,868 --> 00:17:49,001
but look at her.
422
00:17:49,003 --> 00:17:50,586
She's been married a dozen times,
423
00:17:50,588 --> 00:17:53,973
she's had countless affairs, a secret kid,
424
00:17:53,975 --> 00:17:56,092
she's even spent time under house arrest,
425
00:17:56,094 --> 00:17:58,010
but never pays the price.
426
00:17:58,012 --> 00:17:59,979
And why should Rufus suffer
427
00:17:59,981 --> 00:18:02,515
while Lily's reputation remains unscathed?
428
00:18:02,517 --> 00:18:03,983
I agree.
429
00:18:03,985 --> 00:18:05,201
You do?
430
00:18:05,203 --> 00:18:06,719
But Lily's friends
don't read "Gossip Girl."
431
00:18:06,721 --> 00:18:10,573
So you should put the stories
out on "The Spectator."
432
00:18:15,062 --> 00:18:18,998
I can see why you don't feel
like socializing with your father,
433
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,183
but why would you insist
on keeping your attendance
434
00:18:21,185 --> 00:18:23,452
at an equestrian event a secret?
435
00:18:23,454 --> 00:18:26,355
I could care less about the horses.
436
00:18:26,357 --> 00:18:28,524
I'm looking at the property
437
00:18:28,526 --> 00:18:30,409
as long as my father and I are both
438
00:18:30,411 --> 00:18:33,179
in the real estate game in New York,
439
00:18:33,181 --> 00:18:35,281
there will never be peace in our family.
440
00:18:36,533 --> 00:18:38,234
Stone Orchard is for sale?
441
00:18:38,236 --> 00:18:39,368
Uh-huh.
442
00:18:39,370 --> 00:18:42,021
Oh, my God. What a shame.
443
00:18:42,023 --> 00:18:44,657
It's been in the same
family for two centuries.
444
00:18:44,659 --> 00:18:47,276
Well, I heard they lost a
fortune in Facebook stock.
445
00:18:47,278 --> 00:18:50,346
I'm just exploring the possibility,
446
00:18:50,348 --> 00:18:52,948
and I don't want Bart to know
447
00:18:52,950 --> 00:18:54,784
until it's real.
448
00:18:56,286 --> 00:18:58,704
This is fantastic, Charles.
449
00:18:58,706 --> 00:19:00,489
Good for you!
450
00:19:00,491 --> 00:19:02,875
I am so proud of you for
thinking outside of the box,
451
00:19:02,877 --> 00:19:04,710
and outside of Manhattan.
452
00:19:05,797 --> 00:19:06,912
I know the place quite well.
453
00:19:06,914 --> 00:19:08,080
I actually put my horses there
454
00:19:08,082 --> 00:19:11,083
when we first moved back out east. And...
455
00:19:11,085 --> 00:19:12,835
I mean, I could show you around?
456
00:19:13,971 --> 00:19:17,857
I promise, not a word
of this to your father.
457
00:19:21,778 --> 00:19:25,898
Ooh. Well, then there was Ben,
458
00:19:25,900 --> 00:19:27,933
who, contrary to some forged documents,
459
00:19:27,935 --> 00:19:29,902
I didn't sleep with when I was 15.
460
00:19:29,904 --> 00:19:31,970
Not until after he got out of prison,
461
00:19:31,972 --> 00:19:34,273
and that was the last
guy I was with before you.
462
00:19:34,275 --> 00:19:36,692
You said that was a year and a half ago.
463
00:19:36,694 --> 00:19:40,145
Not even one random hook-up
between the jailbird and me?
464
00:19:40,147 --> 00:19:42,948
No. I swore off men. I just
wanted to focus on myself.
465
00:19:42,950 --> 00:19:44,750
Uh-huh. Mm-hmm.
466
00:19:44,752 --> 00:19:46,452
Oh, I know that must be
hard for you to believe,
467
00:19:46,454 --> 00:19:48,788
since you spent the
entire winter focusing on
468
00:19:48,790 --> 00:19:51,207
the "Sports Illustrated" swimsuit models.
469
00:19:51,209 --> 00:19:53,759
Wait, wait. Come on. You
saw that cat daddy video.
470
00:19:57,014 --> 00:20:00,933
So that's it, then? We're... we're good?
471
00:20:00,935 --> 00:20:04,870
I feel prepared for anything
that could be published.
472
00:20:09,976 --> 00:20:11,944
Okay.
473
00:20:11,946 --> 00:20:13,562
No.
474
00:20:13,564 --> 00:20:15,398
Just... no.
475
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,868
Did, uh, Nate get back to
you about the, uh, horse show?
476
00:20:18,870 --> 00:20:21,203
He's got some work to do.
He's gonna meet us there.
477
00:20:21,205 --> 00:20:24,824
I'm really glad he's
going. Go easy on him, okay?
478
00:20:24,826 --> 00:20:26,792
Serena, did you want to come, too?
479
00:20:26,794 --> 00:20:28,861
I mean, if my dad wants you to.
480
00:20:28,863 --> 00:20:31,964
Oh. Well, I... I don't want to intrude.
481
00:20:31,966 --> 00:20:33,416
No. No, no, come.
482
00:20:33,418 --> 00:20:35,418
You can keep Sage occupied while
I interrogate her boyfriend.
483
00:20:37,555 --> 00:20:38,871
Bart, dear, I know you're
going to be devastated,
484
00:20:38,873 --> 00:20:40,639
but I was thinking we
should cancel our dinner
485
00:20:40,641 --> 00:20:41,724
with the Kranzlers this evening.
486
00:20:41,726 --> 00:20:43,426
Gee, that's too bad.
487
00:20:43,428 --> 00:20:45,210
I was looking forward to
dodging all their questions
488
00:20:45,212 --> 00:20:46,695
about my disappearance.
489
00:20:46,697 --> 00:20:48,097
Well, don't worry. We'll reschedule.
490
00:20:48,099 --> 00:20:49,899
You needn't bother, Lily.
491
00:20:49,901 --> 00:20:51,650
What else did you have in mind instead?
492
00:20:51,652 --> 00:20:54,353
Well, I was suddenly in the
mood for a spa overhaul...
493
00:20:54,355 --> 00:20:57,273
masSage, facial, nails, the works.
494
00:20:57,275 --> 00:20:58,557
Are you still upset
495
00:20:58,559 --> 00:21:00,543
about Chuck and those
stories on "Gossip Girl"?
496
00:21:00,545 --> 00:21:02,227
Because I'm planning to stop by The Empire
497
00:21:02,229 --> 00:21:03,746
and have a talk with him.
498
00:21:03,748 --> 00:21:05,414
Oh, I don't think that's necessary.
499
00:21:05,416 --> 00:21:07,566
I spoke to Charles, and he said
he didn't leak those stories,
500
00:21:07,568 --> 00:21:08,751
and I believe him.
501
00:21:08,753 --> 00:21:10,786
So I'll call you when I'm done, okay?
502
00:21:10,788 --> 00:21:12,671
Sure.
503
00:21:14,459 --> 00:21:16,292
Thank you for keeping this between us.
504
00:21:16,294 --> 00:21:17,910
I hate lying,
505
00:21:17,912 --> 00:21:19,578
but there's no reason
to concern your father
506
00:21:19,580 --> 00:21:21,847
if it helps you with
your plan to make peace.
507
00:21:21,849 --> 00:21:24,467
Trust me. If he found
out, he'd run everything.
508
00:21:33,610 --> 00:21:36,228
Sometimes it's best not to call
509
00:21:36,230 --> 00:21:47,456
in order to avoid being called out later.
510
00:22:02,340 --> 00:22:05,977
Just smell the air... so crisp and clean.
511
00:22:05,979 --> 00:22:07,511
And fertilized.
512
00:22:07,513 --> 00:22:09,230
You know, there is so much to show you.
513
00:22:09,232 --> 00:22:12,183
This could take all afternoon.
514
00:22:12,185 --> 00:22:15,736
Oh! Uh, uh, did you see that
woman over there waving at you?
515
00:22:15,738 --> 00:22:16,788
Which one?
516
00:22:16,790 --> 00:22:17,989
The one that looks like Princess Anne.
517
00:22:17,991 --> 00:22:19,523
She's saying your name and waving.
518
00:22:19,525 --> 00:22:20,992
Are you sure?
519
00:22:20,994 --> 00:22:23,244
Ah. Well, maybe I should go say
hello. I don't want to be rude.
520
00:22:23,246 --> 00:22:24,462
Mm.
521
00:22:24,464 --> 00:22:26,197
Excuse me.
522
00:22:26,199 --> 00:22:27,582
Okay, now it's your chance! Go! Run!
523
00:22:27,584 --> 00:22:29,417
Blair, this isn't a hostage situation.
524
00:22:29,419 --> 00:22:30,701
I don't even know who to... excuse me.
525
00:22:30,703 --> 00:22:32,036
Can you tell me if
526
00:22:32,038 --> 00:22:34,305
any of Sheikh Hassan's
horses are competing today?
527
00:22:34,307 --> 00:22:37,308
Mm... just one... Crown
Jewel. She's on the course.
528
00:22:37,310 --> 00:22:39,043
Thank you.
529
00:22:39,045 --> 00:22:40,978
Okay, look.
530
00:22:40,980 --> 00:22:42,980
I'll go and see what I can
find out about Sheikh Hassan.
531
00:22:42,982 --> 00:22:45,099
If you can keep Lily occupied for a few...
532
00:22:45,101 --> 00:22:47,235
I got a closer look,
and it is Princess Anne
533
00:22:47,237 --> 00:22:48,352
with her daughter Zara,
534
00:22:48,354 --> 00:22:49,821
but are you sure she was waving at me?
535
00:22:49,823 --> 00:22:52,773
Because we've never actually met before.
536
00:22:52,775 --> 00:22:54,242
Maybe she was just swatting away mosquitoes
537
00:22:54,244 --> 00:22:56,027
or airing out her pits.
538
00:22:56,029 --> 00:22:57,228
Hmm.
539
00:22:58,498 --> 00:23:00,781
Well, either way, where
should we begin our tour?
540
00:23:02,567 --> 00:23:04,085
Mm-hmm.
541
00:23:06,955 --> 00:23:08,840
Hey, guys, sorry I'm late. I...
542
00:23:08,842 --> 00:23:10,791
No, it's okay. We just got here ourselves.
543
00:23:10,793 --> 00:23:13,077
Nate, this is my dad. You
remember his fist, right?
544
00:23:13,079 --> 00:23:14,262
Ah.
545
00:23:14,264 --> 00:23:15,513
Yeah, sorry about that.
546
00:23:15,515 --> 00:23:17,748
I've never actually punched anyone before.
547
00:23:17,750 --> 00:23:20,051
You definitely did a
good job. It hurt, so...
548
00:23:20,053 --> 00:23:21,552
Hey, do you wanna go check out the horse?
549
00:23:21,554 --> 00:23:24,105
Yeah. You guys stay and
bond over how great I am
550
00:23:24,107 --> 00:23:25,756
and how you want me to be happy, okay?
551
00:23:25,758 --> 00:23:27,859
Great. Bye!
552
00:23:28,810 --> 00:23:29,944
You know, just so you know,
553
00:23:29,946 --> 00:23:32,530
I had to... ice my hand all night.
554
00:23:32,532 --> 00:23:34,282
Probably hurt me more than it you.
555
00:23:34,284 --> 00:23:36,701
And I should probably tell you
556
00:23:36,703 --> 00:23:38,619
I am a huge fan of the
business you've built.
557
00:23:38,621 --> 00:23:41,289
I've been following your
career for forever now. So...
558
00:23:41,291 --> 00:23:44,125
You're not dating my daughter
just to get to me, are you?
559
00:23:44,127 --> 00:23:46,777
No, sir. It's just a purely added bonus.
560
00:23:46,779 --> 00:23:48,212
Whoa! Whoa!
561
00:23:48,214 --> 00:23:49,947
You may be dating my daughter,
but I'm dating your ex.
562
00:23:49,949 --> 00:23:52,616
That cancels out the need for any "sirs."
563
00:23:56,339 --> 00:23:57,588
Lily, hi!
564
00:23:57,590 --> 00:23:58,723
Hi!
565
00:23:58,725 --> 00:23:59,957
It's so nice to see you back at the barn.
566
00:23:59,959 --> 00:24:01,092
Thank you, Jessica.
Great to see you as well.
567
00:24:01,094 --> 00:24:02,260
Enjoy the rest of your day.
568
00:24:02,262 --> 00:24:03,477
Ah! Thank you.
569
00:24:03,479 --> 00:24:05,313
If you ladies wanna get a drink,
570
00:24:05,315 --> 00:24:06,564
I think I'll check out the stables.
571
00:24:06,566 --> 00:24:09,684
Now leaving the course... Crown Jewel,
572
00:24:09,686 --> 00:24:11,185
owned by Sheikh Hassan,
573
00:24:11,187 --> 00:24:14,438
ridden by the Sheikh's daughter Iman.
574
00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,525
Oh, I think the stables are this way.
575
00:24:17,527 --> 00:24:19,193
Actually, Lily... can
we take a little detour?
576
00:24:19,195 --> 00:24:21,362
You know, I've been
considering an equestrian ***
577
00:24:21,364 --> 00:24:22,997
for my next line, and I
want you to introduce me
578
00:24:22,999 --> 00:24:25,333
to those women in the fabulous fascinators.
579
00:24:25,335 --> 00:24:28,652
Next on the course...
580
00:24:30,422 --> 00:24:32,206
That is a beautiful horse.
581
00:24:32,208 --> 00:24:34,759
I'd love to talk to you about buying it.
582
00:24:38,715 --> 00:24:41,332
So who's it gonna be?
583
00:24:41,334 --> 00:24:44,302
Personally, I think Melissa
has the better face for photos,
584
00:24:44,304 --> 00:24:45,519
but Natasha is a Coppola,
585
00:24:45,521 --> 00:24:47,688
and that does come with a certain cachet.
586
00:24:47,690 --> 00:24:49,440
Well, I have to choose now?
587
00:24:49,442 --> 00:24:50,975
Obviously.
588
00:24:50,977 --> 00:24:53,728
But can't it wait? I mean,
I'm... I'm... I'm exhausted.
589
00:24:53,730 --> 00:24:57,198
Oh, suck it up, Humphrey.
They have pills for that.
590
00:24:57,200 --> 00:24:58,482
These girls are perfect.
591
00:24:58,484 --> 00:24:59,784
They all come from great neighborhoods,
592
00:24:59,786 --> 00:25:01,986
have very high I.Qs, and
dress in designer labels.
593
00:25:01,988 --> 00:25:03,520
They meet all of our requirements.
594
00:25:03,522 --> 00:25:05,373
This just isn't me.
595
00:25:05,375 --> 00:25:06,540
These girls might be perfect on paper,
596
00:25:06,542 --> 00:25:08,743
but they're not who I'm looking for.
597
00:25:08,745 --> 00:25:09,827
Who you're...
598
00:25:09,829 --> 00:25:12,630
since when are you looking for anybody?
599
00:25:12,632 --> 00:25:13,881
Don't go soft on me now, Humphrey.
600
00:25:13,883 --> 00:25:16,917
Finding true love was
never part of our deal.
601
00:25:20,640 --> 00:25:22,006
I'm sorry you're not selling.
602
00:25:22,008 --> 00:25:23,424
She's absolutely stunning.
603
00:25:23,426 --> 00:25:24,708
Thank you.
604
00:25:24,710 --> 00:25:26,594
My family takes great
pride in our thoroughbreds.
605
00:25:26,596 --> 00:25:29,180
I know. I've been a big
fan of your family's horses
606
00:25:29,182 --> 00:25:30,815
since I was a child.
607
00:25:30,817 --> 00:25:34,602
There was one in particular
I remember seeing compete.
608
00:25:34,604 --> 00:25:37,221
I think she was yours. Lady Alexander?
609
00:25:37,223 --> 00:25:40,908
Lady Alexander was my childhood horse.
610
00:25:40,910 --> 00:25:44,762
She was much loved but never
competed a day in her life.
611
00:25:44,764 --> 00:25:47,064
My father must've loved
her as much as then,
612
00:25:47,066 --> 00:25:48,916
because he paid a great deal for her.
613
00:25:48,918 --> 00:25:51,502
Again, you're mistaken.
614
00:25:51,504 --> 00:25:53,554
She was sold to a family
friend several years ago
615
00:25:53,556 --> 00:25:54,872
and put to pasture.
616
00:25:54,874 --> 00:25:56,791
She was worthless to anyone but me.
617
00:25:56,793 --> 00:25:59,010
Which made her priceless.
618
00:25:59,012 --> 00:26:01,712
Uncle Bart! So good to see you.
619
00:26:02,798 --> 00:26:05,683
I see my son is attempting
to work his charms on you.
620
00:26:05,685 --> 00:26:08,352
Why didn't you tell me
Bart Bass is your father?
621
00:26:08,354 --> 00:26:09,770
He's like family.
622
00:26:09,772 --> 00:26:12,273
Our fathers were such good
friends before his accident.
623
00:26:13,525 --> 00:26:15,192
Speaking of which,
624
00:26:15,194 --> 00:26:17,895
I was sorry to hear of his recent passing.
625
00:26:21,366 --> 00:26:22,599
Is that...
626
00:26:22,601 --> 00:26:24,601
I think that's Serena.
627
00:26:24,603 --> 00:26:26,537
You know her?
628
00:26:26,539 --> 00:26:27,571
Uh, yeah. That's my mom.
629
00:26:28,574 --> 00:26:29,740
Come on. I'll introduce you.
630
00:26:29,742 --> 00:26:30,741
Grandma.
631
00:26:30,743 --> 00:26:31,909
Oh, no, no. Don't call her that.
632
00:26:31,911 --> 00:26:33,711
Yeah, as much as I'd love to stay
633
00:26:33,713 --> 00:26:36,163
and chat with your charming daughter,
634
00:26:36,165 --> 00:26:37,331
I have to take this call from my mother.
635
00:26:37,333 --> 00:26:39,083
Oh, tell Eleanor I said hello.
636
00:26:39,085 --> 00:26:41,752
Mm.
637
00:26:41,754 --> 00:26:44,672
Serena, darling, I had no
idea you were coming to this.
638
00:26:45,791 --> 00:26:47,124
Oh, yeah. It was just
a last-minute decision.
639
00:26:47,126 --> 00:26:49,393
But I want you to meet
Steven's daughter Sage.
640
00:26:49,395 --> 00:26:50,678
Hi. It's nice to meet you.
641
00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:51,979
Oh, likewise.
642
00:26:51,981 --> 00:26:54,648
Um, you're so much...
643
00:26:54,650 --> 00:26:57,068
more mature than I'd imagined.
644
00:26:58,404 --> 00:27:00,471
I should probably go
check on my dad and Nate.
645
00:27:00,473 --> 00:27:02,907
Okay, I'll be right there.
646
00:27:04,743 --> 00:27:05,910
How old is she?
647
00:27:05,912 --> 00:27:07,361
Oh, you know what?
648
00:27:07,363 --> 00:27:09,914
This is probably my fault
that you have a father complex.
649
00:27:11,166 --> 00:27:13,200
Wait, so you really
played basketball at Duke?
650
00:27:13,202 --> 00:27:14,869
You're really that gullible?
651
00:27:14,871 --> 00:27:17,254
No. No, unlike the other
chemical engi-nerds,
652
00:27:17,256 --> 00:27:18,539
I did watch a few games.
653
00:27:18,541 --> 00:27:19,790
Hey, some people call it gullible.
654
00:27:19,792 --> 00:27:21,208
I like to call it trusting.
655
00:27:22,345 --> 00:27:23,827
It seems like you guys are getting along.
656
00:27:23,829 --> 00:27:26,097
No black eyes at least.
657
00:27:26,099 --> 00:27:27,431
No, you were... you were
right about this guy.
658
00:27:27,433 --> 00:27:29,016
He's trusting, which may have led
659
00:27:29,018 --> 00:27:31,635
to some poor business decisions but...
660
00:27:31,637 --> 00:27:32,720
it makes for good character.
661
00:27:32,722 --> 00:27:34,221
He reminds me a little
of myself at his age.
662
00:27:34,223 --> 00:27:35,389
Hey, that means a lot, man. Thanks.
663
00:27:35,391 --> 00:27:37,274
Okay, I wanted you guys to get along.
664
00:27:37,276 --> 00:27:38,559
There's no need for a full-on bromance.
665
00:27:38,561 --> 00:27:39,777
Where's Serena?
666
00:27:39,779 --> 00:27:40,895
She ran into her mom.
667
00:27:40,897 --> 00:27:42,062
Wait. Lily's here?
668
00:27:44,233 --> 00:27:46,350
Do you know if he still wants to have kids?
669
00:27:46,352 --> 00:27:47,451
I mean, maybe he's done.
670
00:27:47,453 --> 00:27:48,536
Mother!
671
00:27:48,538 --> 00:27:50,621
Can we have this
conversation somewhere else?
672
00:27:50,623 --> 00:27:52,189
People are starting to stare.
673
00:27:52,191 --> 00:27:53,657
Oh. It's probably another one
674
00:27:53,659 --> 00:27:56,877
of those "Gossip Girl" stories about me.
675
00:27:56,879 --> 00:27:58,329
Oh, I hope it ends soon.
676
00:27:58,331 --> 00:28:00,881
Oh, no, it's... it's not
a "Gossip Girl" blast.
677
00:28:00,883 --> 00:28:03,717
It's a "Spectator"
blast... about both of us.
678
00:28:03,719 --> 00:28:04,919
"Like mother, like daughter.
679
00:28:04,921 --> 00:28:06,587
They not only share the
same taste in clothing
680
00:28:06,589 --> 00:28:07,805
but also in men.
681
00:28:07,807 --> 00:28:10,090
Looks like Steven Spence
put age before beauty
682
00:28:10,092 --> 00:28:13,260
by sleeping with Lily before Serena"?
683
00:28:13,262 --> 00:28:15,563
Excuse me.
684
00:28:15,565 --> 00:28:17,765
Hey, Serena, wait.
685
00:28:17,767 --> 00:28:20,100
Did you just omit someone
from our conversation?
686
00:28:20,102 --> 00:28:21,318
Like, I don't know, my mother?
687
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:22,770
What... what are you talking about?
688
00:28:22,772 --> 00:28:25,222
Your love life is the one being
published on "The Spectator."
689
00:28:25,224 --> 00:28:26,941
I had no idea that the
story was about him, okay?
690
00:28:26,943 --> 00:28:29,393
I... I gave it to my editor
so I could be here with Sage...
691
00:28:29,395 --> 00:28:30,661
and get to know Steven.
692
00:28:30,663 --> 00:28:32,496
Well, thanks to you, we
all know him better now.
693
00:28:32,498 --> 00:28:35,533
Way to go, Nate. Dad, seriously? Gross.
694
00:28:38,671 --> 00:28:40,538
Yeah, I... I have no idea why there's a story
695
00:28:40,540 --> 00:28:42,590
about me sleeping with your mother.
696
00:28:42,592 --> 00:28:43,757
It's not true!
697
00:28:43,759 --> 00:28:46,577
Actually, it is.
698
00:28:46,579 --> 00:28:48,379
There are two sides to every story,
699
00:28:48,381 --> 00:28:53,381
with the truth and Serena
stuck smack in the middle.
700
00:28:59,271 --> 00:29:02,189
I think you're confusing
me with someone else.
701
00:29:02,191 --> 00:29:04,191
Unfortunately, I'm not.
702
00:29:04,193 --> 00:29:07,495
Okay, well, one of you is wrong,
and I really hope it's you, mom.
703
00:29:07,497 --> 00:29:09,229
I know we've met a few times socially,
704
00:29:09,231 --> 00:29:11,248
you know, through the
Central Park Conservancy.
705
00:29:11,250 --> 00:29:16,037
And the Bancroft wedding?
The one in the Irish castle.
706
00:29:16,039 --> 00:29:17,571
We snuck down to the dungeon,
707
00:29:17,573 --> 00:29:19,790
opened the oldest bottle
of whiskey we could find.
708
00:29:19,792 --> 00:29:24,595
My last name was Mueller then. Klaus' ex?
709
00:29:24,597 --> 00:29:26,547
Lily Mueller.
710
00:29:26,549 --> 00:29:27,798
Oh, my God.
711
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:29,467
Oh! So it is true?
712
00:29:29,469 --> 00:29:31,552
Look, it...
713
00:29:31,554 --> 00:29:33,437
it was... it... it was
right after my divorce.
714
00:29:33,439 --> 00:29:36,273
You know, I had gone skiing in Verbier,
715
00:29:36,275 --> 00:29:37,558
and hurt my knee.
716
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:38,926
There were... there were
painkillers and... and whiskey
717
00:29:38,928 --> 00:29:41,612
and... oh, wow.
718
00:29:41,614 --> 00:29:44,949
Is that why you were so cold
to me at Conservancy events?
719
00:29:44,951 --> 00:29:46,283
I didn't know about the painkillers.
720
00:29:46,285 --> 00:29:47,401
Yeah.
721
00:29:47,403 --> 00:29:48,702
But you did know that we were dating.
722
00:29:48,704 --> 00:29:50,037
Why didn't you say anything?
723
00:29:50,039 --> 00:29:51,822
What was I supposed to say?
724
00:29:51,824 --> 00:29:54,125
I... I... you... you told me
that you two were madly in love
725
00:29:54,127 --> 00:29:56,944
and that he could be the one.
726
00:29:56,946 --> 00:29:58,212
Besides...
727
00:29:58,214 --> 00:30:01,715
I figured Steven should
be the one to tell you.
728
00:30:01,717 --> 00:30:04,284
Well, I guess this was
one of those surprises
729
00:30:04,286 --> 00:30:06,253
we were hoping to avoid.
730
00:30:07,172 --> 00:30:08,923
This is your final notice.
731
00:30:13,012 --> 00:30:15,146
In five minutes.
732
00:30:15,148 --> 00:30:16,414
What the hell do you
think you're doing here,
733
00:30:16,416 --> 00:30:18,849
talking to Iman?
734
00:30:18,851 --> 00:30:22,302
Enjoying the horses. Same as you, right?
735
00:30:22,304 --> 00:30:27,942
Because Lily would hate to
learn that you had me followed.
736
00:30:27,944 --> 00:30:31,645
You need to stop sticking your
nose in where it doesn't belong
737
00:30:31,647 --> 00:30:34,165
and leave Lily out of this.
738
00:30:34,167 --> 00:30:36,150
Do we understand each other?
739
00:30:39,171 --> 00:30:41,705
I didn't realize you'd
become such an animal lover.
740
00:30:41,707 --> 00:30:44,008
I have a dog, too.
741
00:30:44,010 --> 00:30:47,878
I find the company of animals
preferable to some people.
742
00:30:49,431 --> 00:30:52,666
Another weakness you
didn't inherit from me.
743
00:30:59,558 --> 00:31:01,275
I pulled the story off the site, okay?
744
00:31:01,277 --> 00:31:05,029
I got ahold of some old list Lily made.
745
00:31:05,031 --> 00:31:07,347
You know, the names of everyone
that she had ever slept with.
746
00:31:07,349 --> 00:31:08,949
I... I swear I didn't know
your dad's name was on it.
747
00:31:08,951 --> 00:31:10,284
Everything was going so well.
748
00:31:10,286 --> 00:31:12,686
My dad was really starting to like you.
749
00:31:12,688 --> 00:31:14,121
I screwed up. I'm sorry.
750
00:31:14,123 --> 00:31:16,023
I should've vetted the article
before it ever came out.
751
00:31:16,025 --> 00:31:18,659
What do you have against
Serena's mom anyway?
752
00:31:18,661 --> 00:31:20,360
Nothing. I don't have anything against her.
753
00:31:20,362 --> 00:31:22,079
I just...
754
00:31:22,081 --> 00:31:23,914
it was a... it was a...
it was a desperate move
755
00:31:23,916 --> 00:31:25,716
to save my company.
756
00:31:25,718 --> 00:31:27,718
It was a mistake.
757
00:31:29,971 --> 00:31:32,372
Well, you decided to do it
on your own for a reason.
758
00:31:32,374 --> 00:31:34,808
I did, and I think I
know of a way that I can
759
00:31:34,810 --> 00:31:37,344
without hurting anyone that I care about.
760
00:31:37,346 --> 00:31:40,047
Hey. I'm sorry.
761
00:31:40,049 --> 00:31:44,151
Okay? I'm really sorry.
762
00:31:44,153 --> 00:31:46,103
And I just...
763
00:31:46,105 --> 00:31:48,989
I don't want to lose "The Spectator."
764
00:31:48,991 --> 00:31:50,324
Or you.
765
00:31:59,084 --> 00:32:01,568
I just saw Lily leaving with Bart.
766
00:32:01,570 --> 00:32:03,704
Did you not tell him you
tracked down the Sheikh?
767
00:32:03,706 --> 00:32:07,625
Doesn't matter. Sheikh's dead,
and the daughter won't talk.
768
00:32:07,627 --> 00:32:09,093
She won't? Why not?
769
00:32:10,646 --> 00:32:12,546
She calls him "Uncle Bart."
770
00:32:12,548 --> 00:32:15,599
We're done here. Shall we?
771
00:32:15,601 --> 00:32:18,102
Uh, I'll meet you at the car.
772
00:32:18,104 --> 00:32:20,420
I need the ladies' room
after all those mint juleps.
773
00:32:20,422 --> 00:32:22,139
Right.
774
00:32:22,141 --> 00:32:24,758
Next on the course...
775
00:32:28,430 --> 00:32:31,815
Owned by the Kelly stables.
776
00:32:34,102 --> 00:32:36,537
Iman? Hi.
777
00:32:36,539 --> 00:32:39,406
I'm Blair. I'm a close friend of Chuck's.
778
00:32:39,408 --> 00:32:41,775
I know he left before
he could speak to you,
779
00:32:41,777 --> 00:32:44,578
but this is important to him,
and so it's important to me.
780
00:32:44,580 --> 00:32:45,946
Is this about the horse?
781
00:32:45,948 --> 00:32:47,998
Because I know Chuck
never really wanted it.
782
00:32:48,000 --> 00:32:49,717
He was just flirting with me.
783
00:32:49,719 --> 00:32:51,168
I don't think he was flirting with you.
784
00:32:51,170 --> 00:32:53,337
Look, I know how much
these horses mean to you
785
00:32:53,339 --> 00:32:54,755
and meant to your father.
786
00:32:54,757 --> 00:32:57,524
Unfortunately, they don't
mean that much to Bart.
787
00:32:57,526 --> 00:32:59,310
He isn't exactly a big donator at P.E.T.A,
788
00:32:59,312 --> 00:33:00,761
if you know what I mean.
789
00:33:00,763 --> 00:33:02,646
I'm not sure I do.
790
00:33:02,648 --> 00:33:06,734
Well, Bart Bass. Killed a tiger on safari?
791
00:33:06,736 --> 00:33:09,019
He eats veal on a regular basis?
792
00:33:09,021 --> 00:33:11,188
I don't know about any of that,
793
00:33:11,190 --> 00:33:12,856
but he was a good friend to my father.
794
00:33:12,858 --> 00:33:14,474
He bought Lady Alexander and the others
795
00:33:14,476 --> 00:33:16,777
so they could live out their
days on a farm in Virginia.
796
00:33:16,779 --> 00:33:18,312
Okay.
797
00:33:18,314 --> 00:33:20,664
Listen, Princess Jasmine,
798
00:33:20,666 --> 00:33:24,451
the fact is, your Uncle Bart is bad.
799
00:33:24,453 --> 00:33:27,087
I'm sure every single horse
he bought from your family
800
00:33:27,089 --> 00:33:28,589
went straight to the glue factory,
801
00:33:28,591 --> 00:33:31,825
including your beloved Lady Alexander.
802
00:33:31,827 --> 00:33:35,296
But, if you like, go ahead. Check it out.
803
00:33:35,298 --> 00:33:39,183
See if you find the Bart Bass
retirement home for aged equines.
804
00:33:39,185 --> 00:33:42,720
Trust me, Chuck is the good guy here,
805
00:33:42,722 --> 00:33:44,488
and he needs your help.
806
00:33:44,490 --> 00:33:48,225
On the Upper East Side, it's
hard to know who to trust.
807
00:33:49,362 --> 00:33:52,362
Usually, the answer is no one.
808
00:33:59,578 --> 00:34:02,146
I'm sorry, but it's gonna
take me more than a car ride
809
00:34:02,148 --> 00:34:03,947
to forget the fact that
you slept with my mother.
810
00:34:03,949 --> 00:34:05,899
Serena, I can't change what happened.
811
00:34:05,901 --> 00:34:10,270
I can forget it, obviously,
but I... I can't change it.
812
00:34:10,272 --> 00:34:11,738
Maybe you can forget, too?
813
00:34:11,740 --> 00:34:15,075
I don't know if I'll ever
be able to forget this.
814
00:34:15,077 --> 00:34:17,161
Well, I...
815
00:34:17,163 --> 00:34:20,113
I guess I can try to move past it.
816
00:34:20,115 --> 00:34:23,884
I mean, crazier things
have happened in my family.
817
00:34:30,475 --> 00:34:33,393
Wait, wait, wait. Please, just not so fast.
818
00:34:33,395 --> 00:34:35,962
There are certain images
that keep popping up.
819
00:34:35,964 --> 00:34:37,464
Then we must try to erase them.
820
00:34:39,185 --> 00:34:40,984
I'm warning you. This could take a while.
821
00:34:40,986 --> 00:34:42,736
Mm-hmm.
822
00:34:52,530 --> 00:34:54,181
I never thought I'd see you again.
823
00:34:54,183 --> 00:34:55,365
Care for a drink?
824
00:34:55,367 --> 00:34:57,201
I can't stay long,
825
00:34:57,203 --> 00:34:58,368
but I wanted to tell you
826
00:34:58,370 --> 00:35:02,322
that I looked into what
your friend Blair told me.
827
00:35:02,324 --> 00:35:05,259
Lady Alexander never went
to any farm in Virginia.
828
00:35:05,261 --> 00:35:07,127
Blair told you she did?
829
00:35:07,129 --> 00:35:08,929
No. Bart told me.
830
00:35:08,931 --> 00:35:11,164
But the horses he purchased from my family
831
00:35:11,166 --> 00:35:12,349
are nowhere to be found.
832
00:35:12,351 --> 00:35:14,218
I'm sorry to hear that.
833
00:35:14,220 --> 00:35:16,436
Bart obviously didn't
care much about your horses
834
00:35:16,438 --> 00:35:18,639
and probably paid your
father a lot of money
835
00:35:18,641 --> 00:35:19,839
for something else.
836
00:35:19,841 --> 00:35:22,609
Do you know what it was?
837
00:35:22,611 --> 00:35:26,813
Maybe a... a real estate
deal? Perhaps a hotel?
838
00:35:26,815 --> 00:35:28,315
A hotel?
839
00:35:28,317 --> 00:35:30,484
No, my father was in the oil business.
840
00:35:30,486 --> 00:35:32,686
But Bart couldn't have
been involved in that.
841
00:35:32,688 --> 00:35:34,154
Why not the oil business?
842
00:35:34,156 --> 00:35:37,007
Because we have a home in Dubai,
but we're Sudanese nationals.
843
00:35:37,009 --> 00:35:40,744
I'm sorry. International affairs
are not my area of expertise.
844
00:35:40,746 --> 00:35:42,629
Well, at least not this kind.
845
00:35:42,631 --> 00:35:46,750
Well, the U.S. has an embargo
against trading oil with Sudan,
846
00:35:46,752 --> 00:35:49,503
so if that's what he
bought from my father...
847
00:35:49,505 --> 00:35:51,171
Bart was breaking federal law.
848
00:35:57,878 --> 00:36:00,180
Thanks for taking another
look at my loan application.
849
00:36:00,182 --> 00:36:02,316
I... can't believe I
left out all the revenue
850
00:36:02,318 --> 00:36:03,600
from the new markets.
851
00:36:03,602 --> 00:36:05,602
Just a rookie mistake, I guess.
852
00:36:05,604 --> 00:36:07,854
Well, the numbers do look better,
853
00:36:07,856 --> 00:36:10,324
and, uh, I'm glad you caught the error,
854
00:36:10,326 --> 00:36:13,493
because, uh, with ad sales
projections like this...
855
00:36:14,529 --> 00:36:16,613
we're happy to extend "The
Spectator's" line of credit.
856
00:36:16,615 --> 00:36:18,865
Thank you so much. You're a lifesaver.
857
00:36:18,867 --> 00:36:20,584
Now let me just go make you
a copy of this real quick.
858
00:36:20,586 --> 00:36:22,002
I'll be right back.
859
00:36:29,795 --> 00:36:31,094
How did it go?
860
00:36:31,096 --> 00:36:32,796
Yeah, Nate asked me to take
another look at the numbers
861
00:36:32,798 --> 00:36:34,298
like you said he would.
862
00:36:34,300 --> 00:36:36,099
Are you sure you wanna
co-sign on this loan?
863
00:36:36,101 --> 00:36:38,802
It's obvious he's doctored
his earnings report.
864
00:36:38,804 --> 00:36:41,388
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
865
00:36:41,390 --> 00:36:44,891
Send me the documents
to sign in the morning.
866
00:36:46,946 --> 00:36:48,111
Again, I'm sorry
867
00:36:48,113 --> 00:36:49,813
I didn't tell you I was with Charles,
868
00:36:49,815 --> 00:36:53,400
and you felt the need to follow us.
869
00:36:53,402 --> 00:36:54,401
Apparently...
870
00:36:55,404 --> 00:36:56,620
with good reason.
871
00:36:56,622 --> 00:37:00,741
He's just trying to make
things right with you.
872
00:37:00,743 --> 00:37:02,909
I know how much you wanna believe that,
873
00:37:02,911 --> 00:37:05,445
but Charles has done nothing
since we've gotten back together
874
00:37:05,447 --> 00:37:07,547
but lie and manipulate you.
875
00:37:07,549 --> 00:37:10,550
Oh, really? You really think
I'm that much of a pushover.
876
00:37:10,552 --> 00:37:15,455
He will prey upon your maternal
instincts to get between us.
877
00:37:15,457 --> 00:37:16,974
Well, I won't let that happen.
878
00:37:16,976 --> 00:37:18,308
Neither will I.
879
00:37:18,310 --> 00:37:20,310
You know how much I don't like ultimatums,
880
00:37:20,312 --> 00:37:22,646
but I'm afraid Chuck has left me no choice.
881
00:37:22,648 --> 00:37:25,265
If you wanna be with me,
882
00:37:25,267 --> 00:37:27,967
you need to stay away from my son.
883
00:37:31,472 --> 00:37:33,357
You can't ask me to do that.
884
00:37:35,476 --> 00:37:38,945
He's my son, too.
885
00:37:44,786 --> 00:37:48,205
We're not done discussing this.
886
00:37:50,875 --> 00:37:52,876
So Bart was using the horses
887
00:37:52,878 --> 00:37:55,629
to hide the money he was
buying illegal oil with?
888
00:37:55,631 --> 00:37:57,264
He had to hide it somehow.
889
00:37:57,266 --> 00:37:58,965
Sudan is an embargoed country,
890
00:37:58,967 --> 00:38:00,550
which means he didn't fake his death
891
00:38:00,552 --> 00:38:02,135
because he was worried Mason Nevins
892
00:38:02,137 --> 00:38:04,304
would come after Lily or me.
893
00:38:04,306 --> 00:38:06,189
He did it so he could avoid federal prison.
894
00:38:06,191 --> 00:38:07,691
Well, this is what we need.
895
00:38:07,693 --> 00:38:11,328
Right? Quick. Call the
CIA or the FBI or TMZ.
896
00:38:11,330 --> 00:38:12,562
Let's turn him in!
897
00:38:12,564 --> 00:38:15,348
I wish it were that simple.
We need evidence first.
898
00:38:17,653 --> 00:38:21,288
I was already planning our
victory celebration in my head.
899
00:38:21,290 --> 00:38:25,008
We were in a bubble bath
with a bottle of Grande Cuvée
900
00:38:25,010 --> 00:38:27,661
and no business in the
way of us being together.
901
00:38:27,663 --> 00:38:30,530
Hold onto that visual.
902
00:38:30,532 --> 00:38:33,550
Mmm. If I must.
903
00:38:33,552 --> 00:38:35,836
Call me if you need anything.
904
00:38:39,608 --> 00:38:41,241
Blair, it's Jean Pierre.
905
00:38:41,243 --> 00:38:42,809
Your mother is not pleased.
906
00:38:42,811 --> 00:38:44,528
She knows you're avoiding her calls
907
00:38:44,530 --> 00:38:46,730
and that you don't have
orders from any buyers.
908
00:38:46,732 --> 00:38:49,099
She says you have one month to fix this.
909
00:38:54,673 --> 00:38:57,107
Lily, I cannot apologize to you enough.
910
00:38:57,109 --> 00:38:58,859
I mean, nothing like this
will ever happen again
911
00:38:58,861 --> 00:39:01,361
in "The Spectator," I promise you.
912
00:39:01,363 --> 00:39:03,997
Thank you for understanding, yeah. Bye.
913
00:39:05,250 --> 00:39:09,202
I hope you're here because
you forgive me, too.
914
00:39:09,204 --> 00:39:12,172
I hope that answers your question.
915
00:39:12,174 --> 00:39:14,674
If Serena can forgive my
dad for sleeping with Lily,
916
00:39:14,676 --> 00:39:17,177
and Lily can forgive you for
publishing a story about it,
917
00:39:17,179 --> 00:39:19,379
I guess I can forgive you
for acting like a jerk.
918
00:39:26,854 --> 00:39:29,523
You know, I... I haven't
gone through those.
919
00:39:29,525 --> 00:39:33,092
Are you sure you just
wanna throw it all away?
920
00:39:33,094 --> 00:39:35,979
Some of it must have sentimental value.
921
00:39:35,981 --> 00:39:37,280
Yeah, I'm sure,
922
00:39:37,282 --> 00:39:39,116
and I'm sorry I put the
responsibility on you
923
00:39:39,118 --> 00:39:40,433
to begin with,
924
00:39:40,435 --> 00:39:42,035
but I was at the gallery,
925
00:39:42,037 --> 00:39:46,256
and I realized I don't want this stuff.
926
00:39:46,258 --> 00:39:49,159
I... I don't wanna look back.
927
00:39:49,161 --> 00:39:50,544
I just wanna look forward...
928
00:39:50,546 --> 00:39:51,611
With you.
929
00:40:09,180 --> 00:40:13,466
We all have things from
our past we'd like to erase.
930
00:40:15,971 --> 00:40:18,522
Philip, get some popcorn.
931
00:40:18,524 --> 00:40:22,976
I ran into Serena earlier today
and picked up a movie for us.
932
00:40:22,978 --> 00:40:24,744
But on the Upper East Side,
933
00:40:24,746 --> 00:40:27,614
it's not so easy to hit "delete."
934
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:36,923
There's always a record
of misdeed somewhere...
935
00:40:36,925 --> 00:40:40,343
And someone's always looking for it.
936
00:40:43,098 --> 00:40:46,499
Humphrey, what are you doing here?
937
00:40:46,501 --> 00:40:49,936
I'm pretty sure you have
a spare room up in here.
938
00:40:49,938 --> 00:40:51,388
I was wondering if I could crash.
939
00:40:51,390 --> 00:40:55,141
You made it pretty clear
you were done with me.
940
00:40:55,143 --> 00:40:56,810
What's changed?
941
00:40:56,812 --> 00:41:00,013
I realized I made a mistake.
942
00:41:00,015 --> 00:41:01,565
I've missed you.
943
00:41:01,567 --> 00:41:04,117
I've missed... my friend.
944
00:41:04,119 --> 00:41:07,020
Last year, when you had no
one, I was there for you.
945
00:41:07,022 --> 00:41:11,091
I kinda need you to do
the same for me right now.
946
00:41:17,548 --> 00:41:19,198
Serena's bed is empty.
947
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,819
Make yourself at home.
948
00:41:24,339 --> 00:41:28,341
Better not to ignore the past
but learn from it instead.
949
00:41:31,263 --> 00:41:35,515
Otherwise, history has a
way of repeating itself.
950
