(relaxing music) - [Bruno] I think the chair should be to the left. - [Assistant] All right. - Yeah, just a little to the, no, camera left. Thank you. Ah, actually, ugh, just a little more left. - [Assistant] Sorry, sorry, sorry. - King Kong, out of the shot please. Just get out of the shot, thank you. Bring the light down just a bit, just a bit. - [Assistant] Right there? - No, leave the chair. Where's the model? - Bruno needs the model. - [Voiceover] She won't come out of the trailer. - What? - [Voiceover] She flipped out. - Please, no. - What's wrong? Where's the fashion editor? - [Voiceover] She threw me out, you can try. - I'll just go and get her. - [Bruno] Please. - Where's Danielle? - [Voiceover] In the wardrobe truck. - A little to the left. - Danielle? - Yes? - You're sewing? - Yeah, she's saving my butt. - Is the set lit? - A bigger crisis, the model won't come out. - What, we're already one hour behind. (static crackling) - Hello? - Here this should be small enough now. - Okay. - Ugh, this thing isn't working. - Thank you, we'll get her ready in the makeup trailer. - Okay. - Do you have any idea what's going on with her? - I have no idea. (car horn honking) Move, move. - Coming through. - [Voiceover] Excuse me. - [Voiceover] Hey watch it! - Claire, stay. - I'm staying! (weeping) - What happened? - Boyfriend breakup. - Is that it? Hey Dixie? - I'm sorry Danielle, but I can't handle this photo shoot. I just can't get it together. How I am going to live without Zane? - Oh sweetie, let's hug it out. Come on. - Oh, I'm sorry, I'm getting make up all over you. - Oh, that's okay, that's why I wear black. But you are gonna be wearing this. - Is that my dress? - Uhuh. - I love the color. - It's going to look stunning on you. - But I'll still look fat. - Oh honey, you could fit your whole body into one of my thighs. - (laughs) That's not true. - I like seeing that smile. Now, you're not going to let Zane ruin your first cover shoot, are you? - No way, he's an idiot. - That's the spirit! I worry about her. When was the last time she ate? - I don't know, last August? - Well, get her a protein bar and clean up her mascara as quick as you can. We don't mind if she's a little dewy. - Okay. - Okay. - [Hairdresser] You look lovely, honey. - Dixie, I'll see you in five. Okay? Perfect, okay, thank you. - [Hairdresser] Okay, honey, let's get those pin curls back in. - Okay, we're back on. - Oh, you're my hero. - When are photographers going to embrace the fact that real women weigh more than 80 pounds? - I hear that. - Whoa, hang on there, handsome. - I need to see Dixie. - Not on your life, Claire, park Zane at craft service, and tell Pam to get him some flowers to give to Dixie after she's finished the first set up. - Flowers, cool good idea, thank you. - [Danielle] Yeah. - [Claire] Yes. (phone ringing) - [Danielle] Hello? - [Voiceover] Pumpkin? - Mom, I can't talk. - [Voiceover] It's important. - Is anyone dying? - [Voiceover] Not yet. But your grandmother won't live forever. - I gotta go. - [Voiceover] You don't have one minute to talk to your mother calling you from Romania? - I'm sorry Mom, go ahead. - [Voiceover] Thank you. You know your grandmother's goat? - Vivien's on her way. - What? - She's got the clients with her. - Mom, I have to go, bye. (upbeat music) Let's go, let's go. We have to get the first shot off before Vivien gets here. Come on. - Okay, okay, hey! - Side door, side door. Claire, intercept! - Hi, Vivien. - Oh, how is the shoot going? On schedule? - The set's amazing and the model is perfect. - Good. Well, maybe you'd consider stepping aside and letting us go in. - I'm sorry. - Thank you, come on. I think you'll be suitably impressed. - Okay, Dixie. We're here and ready. - Get her into position, we're running out of time. - All right, careful. - [Bruno] Come on. Get out of the shot, guys. - All right, Dixie. You're looking spectacular. All right, Bruno, shoot it! - Fantastic. (chattering) Stay there, feel the light in your eyes. That's fine. This box represents a world of mad people and you're trying to fit in. - Did she know I was bringing the clients? - Yeah, I think so. - [Bruno] The box can't contain your beauty. - Those leggings... - [Bruno] Burst out of the box. Beautiful. - As you can see, it's an Alice in Wonderland theme. - [Bruno] Beautiful. That's it, that's it. - Pretty impressive. - [Bruno] Hold it, perfect. - Thank you, sir. Here's your change. Hey, buddy, what's happening? - Wow, pretty hot. - Thanks. - Yeah. Hey, I'd offer to take you out in style, but I know you got your big presentation in the morning. - It has to be perfect, I have some stiff competition. - Oh, who, Elaine? Please, I hope she crashes and burns, that witch. Speaking of, do you know what she is pitching in the morning? - Venice theme, gondoliers, masks. - Uh huh, pretty cool, but I like your idea better. - You're such a charmer. - Just being honest. Taxi! All right, you've gotta be up bright and early in the morning and uh, no pressure, but you gotta close this account because I couldn't bear to work for Elaine. - And I love you for that. Hey, these are for you. - [Lance] I'm taking one okay? - [Danielle] Thank you, okay. - [Lance] You stay strong. (frolicking music) - Hmm, what should I have for dinner? A vegan feast, how wonderful. All right, let's get this done. Let's add a little lens flare. Nice. Yeah. Hot dress. (phone ringing) Hey Claire! - Danielle, you didn't send me the presentation. Vivien is freaking out. She wants to see it before it goes to the IT guy. - Uhuh, five minutes. - Look, it's perfect as it is. Please, please, just send it. - Sending it now. - And don't forget to bring the dress for the presentation. (fabric tearing) - Oh shoot. (frolicking music) Hold the elevator! Hold the elevator, I'm sorry. Thank you. Good morning. - [Receptionist] Hi, good morning. - Hey, thanks for modeling for me again. And let's hope those photos sell it, huh? - Fingers crossed. - [Danielle] Yeah. - [Claire] Danielle! - [Danielle] Hey Claire. What's the matter? - Change of plan, Elaine is pitching first. - That's not the end of the world. - There's more. - I'm so excited to show you up what we've come up with. So I take you to the world of Fashion Circus. With a whimsical and vintage theme for a backdrop. All the colors will be muted vintage. - She's pitching the circus theme? - Except your dress, which will be featured fully saturated, so it really pops. Now, I wasn't sure if knife throwing was a little bit too edgy for you. - No, we don't want that. - My thoughts exactly. - Hey, that's my elephant! - Yeah, I know. - Could you get the dress? - I'm so sorry. - How did Elaine get my Power Point presentation? Cause I know you didn't give it to her, right? - Right. I gave it to Vivien and Vivien gave it to her. - Hey baby. - Did you see this? - Yeah, that's got to be a bummer. - You think? - Hey. - [Vivien] Thank you so much. - [Lance] Great job, great job. - Vivien, can you please tell me-- - Hold that thought, Danielle. I am so glad you love the concept. Let's put a dinner on the books shall we? Claire, would you arrange everyone's schedule? Danielle, I'll meet you in my office after I finish this. - Why the look? - You know very well why. - They liked your concept and bought my pitch. It's a win win. - I would have never taken your concept as my own, ever. - It's just business Danielle, I wouldn't take it so personally. - You have been trying to undermine me since the first day you got here. I worked months for that presentation. - And because of me it's a success. - Your humility is amazing. - And your naivete is boring, I'm gonna do whatever it takes to get that corner office, even if it does mean stepping over a few bodies. It's a cutthroat world, Danielle. So I suggest, you put on your big girl panties and get with the program or get out of my way. - I'm talking to Vivien. You're not gonna get away with this. (door slamming shut) Fashion Circus was my idea. Elaine was supposed to be pitching Venice and gondoliers. - Correct, but yours was the better idea. - Exactly, so why is she pitching it? - Because she has a better image for the magazine. - That's crazy! You can't just give her my whole concept just because I won't squeeze into some leather Lycra leggings. - You can't tell me what I can and cannot do. Landing this layout for Beguile Magazine was crucial. The client loved it, we landed the account, and that is why I am editor-in-chief. Oh, Lance, Elaine, please, sit down. Danielle, that's it for now. - But I still will be running point on this photo shoot, right? - I've asked Elaine to take care of the fashion piece. Danielle, I would like you to handle the piece on the new line of femrazors. - No way. - The last time I checked, this was my magazine. I suggest that you watch your tone. - Okay, Vivien, I'm sorry, I would like to request that Lance would work with me on the razor piece. - No, Lance has requested to work with Elaine. - What? When? - We discussed it over dinner, last night. - Sorry, let's talk about it a little later. - No, let's talk never again. - Children, we have a crucial layout to put together. Danielle, if it's okay with you, we would like to get to work. - Okay. You know what, I'm not okay with this. And I'm not gonna let Elaine take credit for my elephant! - Well go whine to your mommy if you can't take a little competition. - You leave my mother out of this, you backstabbing witch! - Don't touch me! (scuffling) - Call security. - Out. - I know how to exit the building, I don't need your help. - [Left Guard] Let's go, Ma'am. - I thought I'd find you here. - Yep. - Hey Ma'am, what can I get for you? - What are you drinking? - A marga-cheater. - Are you sure you don't want something a little stronger? - I'm working my way up to wheatgrass shots. - Detox special. - You bet. - Look, I'm sorry, Danielle. I should have warned you as soon as you walked in. I need to grow a spine. - I don't recommend it, look where it got me. I'm an idiot, and now I'm unemployed. - Okay, let's talk through your options. You could call Mode Image. - I already did. Vivien has polluted every fashion magazine in the Northern Hemisphere against me. - Okay, this is bad. Maybe you need to cool things off a bit. Get away somewhere and regroup. - Go away, like hide? - I wouldn't call it hiding. Just getting, off the grid. - Where? - Somewhere far, far away. (phone buzzing) (anticipatory music) - Ox cart, ox cart. (car horn honking) Oh wow, I'm home. (goats bleating) (chickens clucking) - [Luiza] Danielle! - Mama! - My daughter is home! - [Danielle] It's so good to see you, Mama. - Oh, let me see you. You are beautiful! A little thin, but we can fix that. It's about time that magazine gave you a vacation. - Well, it's not exactly a vacation. - Come, come. Grandma and Grandpa can't wait to see you Oh, my daughter is home, you've made me so happy. - [Group] Surprise! (applauding) (cheering) - Oh, the whole town is here. (applauding) (cheering) - You remember your Uncle Bogdan. - [Danielle] Hi, Uncle Bogdan. - And Aunt Lidia. - Hi, Aunt Lidia. - Lidia, Lidia, Lidia, Lidia, it's okay, it's okay. This is Stefan. - [Stefan] Nice to meet you. - [Danielle] Hi. - [Luiza] And Oana, second cousins on your father's side. They speak English. - Yes, we do speak English. - Oh cool, maybe we can practice sometime? - Yes, why not, we can. - Yeah. - And this is Danielle, the famous fashion editor from New York. (cheering) (applauding) - Grandma! - (cheering) Danielle! My favorite cousin, I can't believe you're back. - Me too. - What? - [Both] What, what, what, what, what, what? We got the spirit! (cheering) (laughing) - Come, look. My children, Cristi and Ana. - [Danielle] Oh wow. They are so beautiful. - And my husband, Razvan. - Hi, Razvan, I've heard so much about you. - I'm so proud of you. New York fashion editor, and I hear you have a handsome and successful boyfriend. - Let's go in the living room. - Come on, come on, come on. (chattering) (cheerful music) - Welcome home, Danielle, welcome home. - No, thank you. - What's the matter with you, why aren't you eating? - Mom, I don't eat meat, remember? - Oh, right, have some slanina. It is just fat - Yeah, pork fat. - Don't tell Grandma. It would kill her, she thinks it's kosher. Grandma? So, when do you have to go back to New York? - Mom, I have to tell you something. - [Luiza] Yes? - The magazine let me go. - What!? - Ssshht! Can we keep this just between us? - Oh of course, of course. Here, some stuffed cabbage. It's a vegetable. - Stuffed with meat. - Yeah, right. To heck with the magazine. Tell your boyfriend Lance to marry you so you can start having babies. - We broke up. (speaking foreign language) - It's all right, you've worked enough. You stay here, find a nice Romanian boy. Here, try the eggplant, no meat. - Danielle, you got fired? - Mom, I told you not to tell anyone. - They are not anyone, they're family. - [Sofia] That's right, family! - Yeah. - [Stefan] It was awesome to be here, thank you very much. - Thank you so much, bye bye. - Go, go, go, oh God! - Razvan is taking the kids home. Let's go, I called us a taxi. - What, where? - Out. - Now? - Come on, I haven't seen you in 10 years. Tonight we celebrate, come. - Go, go, go, go, have fun! Yeah, put it on, okay, go. I need a drink. (upbeat music) (chattering) - I'm still working at the clothing factory, but I got promoted to apparel quality controller number eight! - Yay. - Well, it's not glamorous, but at least I have a steady job. - Which is more than I can say. - Yeah, well, you never know what is going to happen. There are rumors that somebody might buy the plant. Yeah, could be a bad thing. Or maybe it's a good thing and the new owner will give us all a raise. - Let's hope. - Vlad. (speaking foreign language) How about a welcome home drink for my beautiful single cousin? - Sofia! - What? (upbeat music) - [Danielle] Thank you. - Hey, she's single. - Hey, hey, hey! - Stop telling everyone. - Let's find a table. Oh, hottie alert. - Where? Wow, I'm sorry. Did I do that? - No, I was aiming for that picture. - Are you being sarcastic? - Just a little bit. - Hey Adrian, are you gonna play or what? - Do you wanna take a shot at me? - Nah I'm good, but uh, see you around. Why did you walk away? - Trust me, I'm not that guy's type. - Okay, forget about him. I have a plan for you. - I'm glad someone does. - You should stay here and start your own magazine. - It's not that simple. - Well, maybe not, but just remember, in Romania, you are a fat fish in a skinny pond. - Got that. (cheering) (upbeat dance music) (laughing) (cheering) All right, Romania, the fat fish is back! (cheering) (upbeat dance music) Ssshht! - [Sofia] I didn't say anything! (goat bleating) - What was that? - What? - I think I woke up the goat. (laughing) (frolicking music) (rooster clucking) - Good, you're up. - Oh, not so loud. - Here, I brought you salty coffee, to help you get over last night. Drink. - Thanks. - Okay. - Oh... (calming music) It's so strange without Dad here. - I know, we all miss him. - Mom, are you all right? - I am now that I have my daughter home. Look, it's a beautiful day. Do you know what you need? - Sunglasses. - No, to stay busy. - Well, I haven't stopped since I came here. - You came home because you subconsciously wanted to get back to your roots. So, put on some comfortable clothes, wash your hands and go out and milk the goat. (frolicking music) - Work with me, Maloo, work with me. - Yeah, Grandma, it's nice to be validated. Thanks. (phone buzzing) - Hello? - Danielle, I'm freaking out here. I screwed up a shoe order and I'm desperate. Vivien wanted the Jimmy Choo fringed sandal but they sent the color block gladiator instead. Now they're back-ordered. - Claire! Well, didn't you hear me calling you? - I'm sorry, Vivien. - Well where are the sandals? - They're on back order. - Well, what good is that? - Tell her Enzo is over-nighting the Sergio Rossi geometric sandals from Milan. - Enzo from Milan is over-nighting the Sergio Rossi sandals. You know, the one from the geometric line? - Oh, good. - Thanks for the rescue. - Why's our dinner not here yet? - Uh, it will be here in a minute. - Did you print out the mock-ups? - I don't have the flash drive. - Elaine? - Yes? - Why didn't you give Claire the flash drive? - I have it here. - [Vivien] What good is that to her? - I need these in color and full res. And don't use the chintzy paper. - I am in hell. - I'm sorry, Claire. How are Lance and Elaine getting along? - Oh, they've kind of become a thing, but we don't need to go there. How's everything with you? - Yeah, I'm fine, I'm just milking Maloo, my grandmother's goat. - (laughs) Funny. - No, I really am milking a goat. (relaxing music) (speaking foreign language) - Now we have enough potatoes to feed the entire Romanian wrestling team. - Good. - All right, well I'm gonna go take a bath now. - Before you do that, can you run into town and pick me up some olives and pickles? I'm making potato salad. - Sure. Be back in a bit. - Why does she need the car keys? (groaning) - What the heck? Why isn't it working? (foreboding music) Okay, there's no engine. Hey, my old scooter! (frolicking music) - [Veta] Danielle! - Hi. - So nice to see you after all this time! You are so big. - Thank you, I think. (laughs) - Cosmin! (speaking foreign language) Danielle is here! - Tell me, how can I help you? - I need some olives and pickles, please. - Yes, we have olives here. - I go get the pickles. - Okay. - Okay, thank you. Hmm! It's hot, it's hot! Hot, hot! (laughs) - Danielle, no not, no hot. - Yeah, perfect. - Pickles. - Oh, thank you. Thank you. - [Veta] You're welcome. - How much do I owe you? - It's a gift. - Oh that's so sweet, but I'm happy to pay. - Please take it, we want to help. Since you lost your big job. - Oh... Okay. Thank you. - [Veta] You're welcome. (frolicking music) - [Salesman] Here, chocolate. - Oh thank you. - Chocolate, to make you feel better. We also heard about your boyfriend. - So sad. (foreboding music) - [Danielle] Bye! (cheerful upbeat music) - Ah, get out of the way! (bell ringing) (screaming) (scooter horn honking) - I'm sorry, that was totally my fault. Are you okay? Oh, he's cute. Please don't be dead, I'm gonna go get help. You stay here. (frantic music) Help, over here, over here! - Ah, he's back. - Yeah, where am I? - Hi. - It's you. - I'm Danielle, the one who ran you off the road. - That's right. - [Danielle] You hit your head on a tree. - Yeah, you have a pretty good lump over there. - Yeah, I can feel that now. - Okay, how many fingers? - Three. - [Doctor] Okay what's your name? - Adrian Edwards. - Good, you should be okay. Here, ice will help. - Owh! (dog barking) - Ah, that's my next patient. - You brought me to a vet? - Yeah. (calming music) Are you sure you're okay? - Yeah, it's just a bump. - I'm so sorry. It was the closest medical facility I could find. - I suppose I should be grateful you didn't leave me on the side of the road. Do you know what happened to my bike? - I'm not sure it survived the crash. - Right. Cause I kind of borrowed that from the landlord of the pub. - I hope it didn't have any sentimental value. - He did seem rather attached. - I could try to see if someone could fix it for you. - Yeah, that would be great. If you could, I mean I'm kinda new around here, so. - Can I give you ride somewhere? - You're funny. Oh, you want me to get on the back of that thing? - [Danielle] Yeah. - I'm not sure I'll fit in the basket. (warm music) I haven't done this since I was 16. Hold on. - You staying here? - Yep. - I vaguely remember being at this pub last night. - That you were. Dodging darts and crowd surfing as I recall. - That's embarrassing. - Well, thank you for such an interesting encounter. It's not often I'm run into by girls like you. - I've got to go take my mother her pickles now. And don't worry about your bike, I'm gonna go take care of it, okay? Bye. - Pickles. (calming music) (scooter engine humming) - [Sofia] You ran over the hottie from the bar? - Yes. - Is he okay? - I think so. - That's good. You met a nice Romanian boy. - Actually, he's British. (speaking foreign language) - Why do you do this to me? - What did I do? - Can you hand me the mayonnaise? - Here, Mom. - Oh thanks. - Not too much mayonnaise for me, please. I'm trying to lose weight. Razvan is taking me somewhere special for our anniversary. - Oh, that's sweet. What are you gonna wear? - I don't know. I have a dress, but getting into it is like stuffing a sausage. - Bring it over, I'll have a look at it. - It's already in your room. (giggling) Oh, that's too tight. - Are you sucking it in? - (gasps) Yes. - Hold still. - Well I can't when you're yanking on me. Ow! - Don't hit me! - Don't you hit me! - Don't you hit me! Ow! (giggling) Look at us, just like old times when I was the fashion designer and you were-- - The super model! Oh, that's depressing. - [Danielle] I think the zipper is stuck. - Oh forget it, forget it, forget it, we can have our anniversary at home. - No, you and Razvan should go out have a romantic dinner. - I look like a walrus. Not even this shapewear can help me. - Stop it, you have a fabulous figure. You're just a little curvy, like most real beautiful women. - You mean like a frumpy mother. - You're not frumpy. We're gonna go shopping together. - I've been shopping. Designers don't make dresses for curves anymore. They only make dresses for young girls with straight lines. - I know that all too well. I could make you a dress. Something that would make Razvan's head spin around. - Really? - Yeah. - You'd do that for me? - Of course. (giggling) - Dinner's ready. Get dressed. - Mom, this is so good. I forgot how much I loved homemade chicken soup. And you know, I'm gonna make a dress for Sofia for her anniversary dinner... (chattering) (calming music) - That's pretty. - Thanks. - It's good to see you sketching again. - Yeah, I forgot how much I loved it. - And I love you. - Love you too. - Good night, sweetie. (calming music) - Oh hi, Grandpa. - How's the bike coming along? - Well, thank you so much for doing this, bye. - Bye! - Hi, where are you going? - To pick some fabric to show Sofia. - Have fun. - Thanks, bye. - [Luiza] Bye. (scooter engine revving) (calm piano music) - Wow, this place is impressive. - Oh, really? Here, take a look at this. Would you wear this? - Well, the workmanship is pretty darn good, but the color, and the style... - And they wonder why business is down. - I'm amazed your people can sew this well on these outdated machines. - [Sofia] Yeah. - They're really gifted artisans. - I'll tell them. - Yeah. - Everybody! This is my famous cousin, the fashion editor from New York. - [Workers] Hi! - Ex-editor! - They don't need to know that. - [Workers] Oh! - They really take pride in their work. - It shows. So, I got these swatches for your anniversary dress. - Oh. - And I was thinking about doing a riff on the Romanian peasant blouse. - Wow. Hey, Oscar, this is my cousin Danielle. - [Danielle] Hi. - Hi, pleased to meet you. - Oscar is the plant manager. - Nice to meet you. - She's designing me a dress. - Oh, look at you. - So, what do you think? - Well, I love them both. Danielle, you pick. - Okay, I'll let you go back to work. - [Danielle] Okay. - [Sofia] Peace, bye. - [Danielle] Bye everyone, bye Oscar, nice to meet you, bye. (relaxing music) Wow. You're awesome, thank you so much, Grandpa. (phone ringing) - Yeah, I'm looking at the spreadsheet now. Where are you? - [Voiceover] London, these numbers are abysmal. We have to offload it. - Look, hang on a minute, I'm still assessing things here. - [Voiceover] You can assess all you like, but it's bleeding money. - [Danielle] Adrian! (bicycle bell ringing) - I have got a mountain of paperwork still to go through. I just need a little bit more time. - [Voiceover] Why are you stalling, Adrian. - I'm not. - [Voiceover] Well, I'm not waiting around forever for you to make a decision on it. - Look, Beatrix, can I call you back? Okay, bye. Hi there. - Hi. - You fixed it? - Yeah. - I didn't tell the landlord 'cause he'd kick me out on my butt. - (laughs) Yeah, well, my Grandpa is surprisingly handy. - You'll have to thank him for me. - I will. - I was just about to have a bite to eat. I don't suppose you'd care to join me? I hear they do a wonderfully mediocre fish and chips. - Sure, why not. (relaxing music) - So, how did you end up in New York? - Well, I moved there to go to college and decided to stay. My mom came to visit me a few times, but I haven't been to Romania since. - Really, why not? - My job was really competitive and then when I was made fashion editor, the thought of taking a vacation, was terrifying. But I sound pathetic with all these excuses, don't I? - No, no, not at all. Work has been a big priority in our family. - So what's your story? - I live in London, but I've got a new job sort of taking care of the family business, since... My father passed away last year. - I'm sorry to hear that. - Nah, it's all right. We weren't as close as perhaps we should have been, but still it's been a, it's been a big adjustment. Now I'm over here sorting out some of his real estate holdings, which is proving a little bit daunting. (speaking foreign language) - Thank you. (speaking foreign language) - (speaking foreign language), right? - That's very good, (speaking foreign language). - Well, that is a pretty pathetic bowl of salad. Would you like some of my fish and chips? - No thanks, I'm a vegan. - Really? Well, that is unacceptable, especially coming from a Romanian. - Look, I insist you must try a chip. - All right, okay, why not? - Hmm? - That was really good. - Right, now you must try a piece of fish. Hmm? Didn't know what you were missing, did you? - You want some of my salad? - No, I try to keep away from anything that's good for me. - I'm sure it has no nutritional value. - Well, then in that case, absolutely. - Here. - You sneaky devil. Give it to me, give it to me. (door opening) - [Danielle] Hi. - Hello, Danielle. What's that look? - What look? - You are all googly eyed. - I am not googly eyed. - So, how was dinner? - Dinner was nice. - What did you eat? - Me? Fish and chips. - [Luiza] She had fish and chips. - Yeah, I decided not be a vegan anymore. Oh, and Adrian says thank you for fixing his bike. Night. - (speaking foreign language) She's a goner! - [Danielle] I heard that! Mom, have you seen my sewing machine? - Did you look in your closet? - Yeah, it's not there. - Maybe it's in the guest room. Let's help her look. (calming music) - When did you do all this? Where's the guest bed? - Grandpa and Bogdan put it in the cellar. - You turned it into a design studio. - Yes Grandma, I love it. (laughing) Thank you. Are these mine? - From when you were a teenager. I've kept them all. - I love it, thank you. - You've always loved sewing. Now you have your own place, where you can create something beautiful. - This makes me very happy. (acoustic guitar music) - How's it going? - It's going great. - Would you like a coffee? - Yeah, a strong one. - Okay. (relaxing music) - Come here for a second. - Wow, this is beautiful! - Bravo Danielle! Sofia, you are a vision. (speaking foreign language) (phone buzzing) - This is very nice. - It's Adrian. - Answer! - Hello? - Hey there, it's your friendly carnivore. - Oh hi. - Have I caught you at a bad time? - No, not at all. - I was calling to see if you fancied an adventure? - Adventure? - I wondered if you'd wanted to go for a hike. - A hike? Sure. - Great, I'll pick you up tomorrow morning at nine o'clock. - Perfect. - Bye. - See you soon, bye. - He asked you on a hike? - Yeah. - It's not sexy, but at least it's something. (relaxing music) - Yeah, uhm, thank you. (speaking foreign language) (door knocking) - Hi. - [Luiza] Hi. - I'm Adrian. - And I'm the mother. Luiza. - Pleasure to meet you. - Danielle! Your friend is here. - Oh hi. - [Adrian] You ready? - Yep. Bye, Mom. - Bye. - Bye. - Bye. Definitely not Romanian, but cute. - Come on. We're almost there now. - Thank God. - Now that, is an incredible view. What a beautiful country you have. - It is, and I wish I could breathe right now and enjoy it with you. And thanks for pulling my fat butt up this hill. - I rather like your fat butt. - Oh, come on. - No serious. I like everything about you. - Really? - Have you got your breath back yet? - I think so. - Good. (romantic music) - And they said hiking wasn't sexy. Thank you. You fit a lot into that little backpack. - Well, as it happens, I used to be a boy scout. - I didn't know London had boy scouts. - Hmm-mm, we used to go for expeditions in the Brecon Beacons. Sitting around campfires, toasting marshmallows and singing Ging Gang Goolie. - Sounds like fun. - It was, I love the countryside. I mean, look at it, it's stunning. Everyone's so content here. It's a real sense of home. - Romania is a very special place. How long are you planning to stay? - I don't know. I can work from pretty much anywhere. It's not like I have anything to go back for. Or anyone, for that matter. I rather enjoy my time here with you. - Me too. (romantic music) (door knocking) (chattering) - [Sofia] Hi Luiza! - Hi. - Is Danielle back yet? - No, she is still mountain climbing with Adrian. Come on in, I made cake. - Thank you, come girls. - Come in the living room, come. - Take off your jackets and have a seat. Auntie! - Girls, I want you to meet my Great Aunt Zoya. - Aren't you all supposed to be working at the factory today? - Yeah, but they gave our shifts half the day off. Some inspectors are coming to check the building and appraise the machines. And I think the silent partners are rearing their ugly heads. - They are not going to close the plant. It would throw half the village out of work. - From your mouth to God's ears. (laughing) - They're back! (chattering) She has that look on her face again! - Yeah, she kind of never liked leaving the house. She's so strict. - Hmm-mm. - And so does he. - I had a really nice time. - Me too, me too. I don't suppose you're free for dinner tomorrow night? - Actually, I am. - Great. (frolicking music) - Danielle, your cousin is here with some people. - Okay. - Do you want to stay for cake, it's apple walnut. - I would love to, but I have been playing truant all morning, I should probably go to work. - Come on, I'll get you a piece to take with you. Come, come in, come. Come, please, come. - It smells great in here. - Thank you. - Hi! - [Girls] Hi! - Sofia! Everyone, this is Adrian. - [Girls] Hi! - Hi. - I'm Sofia, hi. - Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you too. - This is my Grandma. - Hi there, Grandma. - And they work with me at the clothing manufacturing plant. They all saw my anniversary pictures. - Oh how was that? - Amazing. Razvan really loved the dress. I think he ripped it a little but we'll talk about that later. So now everyone wants a dress. - That's great. - Lovely to meet you all, ladies. - Bye! Oh Danielle! So, who wants to get measured first? - I'll go first! - Me! - 40, waist, 69. For height, got 83. 45, 69. Shoulders, 47. 77, 80. - [Sofia] 80. - This is really pretty. What I like is this border here. Do you have any more of this? Got something to say, don't make a sound As long as we're here then I'm yours for the night If no party's over I'll be out of sight I can't lose attention until the time This night out, the retail is coming alive Beautiful! Let's try it on you. That's it. - I'm hot. - Now relax, just relax, just loosen up, yeah? - Okay. Cause I'm seeing the rhythm, I'm seeing the rhythm I'm seeing the rhythm - Work it! Move, move. Now look at me, look at the glow. You're fierce. - These are incredible, Danielle. - Really? - Yeah. - Grandpa, light it up. You wish that you could be my man But when midnight comes it's all pretend Exactly! If no party's over I'll be out of sight Yeah. I can't lose attention until the time This night out, the retail is coming alive I'm seeing the rhythm, pay close attention (cheering) (goat bleating) Perfect. Because I'm seeing the rhythm, I'm seeing the rhythm - So, Adrian, how do you like Romanian food? - You could teach my mother a thing or two. But if you tell her that though, then I will hunt you down. - Sofia, did the girls like their dresses? - They are going crazy. - I've been trying to talk Danielle into showing the photos to someone at her magazine. - It's a good idea. No, yeah, it's a good idea. - It's not my magazine, remember? - There must be someone over there you can talk to. - Yeah. - I'll think about it. - She'll think about it. To Danielle! - [All] To Danielle! (speaking foreign language) - [Danielle] Hey Claire. - Holy boho, you designed all these clothes? - Yes. - They are outrageous, who made them? - I did and my mom made the headpieces and my grandma made the embroidery. - I adore this collection. - It's not a collection. - It needs to be. - [Danielle] Really? - I wouldn't blow smoke about something as sacred as fashion. - Thanks Claire. I'll get right on it. - That-a-girl. - All right, bye. I'm gonna need three yards of this fabric. - [Fred] Hey Adrian, sorry I'm late! - What do you call this, Fred? - I'll be right back. - I'll meet you inside. - [Danielle] Hi. - Hi. - You are looking quite handsome. - Thanks. - Are you okay? - Yeah, I just got some upsetting news about some business stuff. - Oh, I'm sorry. - It's all right. Listen, I'm going to have to cancel our dinner plans this evening. - Sure, no problem. - Well, I've got to run. - [Danielle] Okay. - I'll call you later. (sad music) - Wow, Danielle, these are beautiful! You should be really proud. - What's going on? - Nothing. I just ran into Adrian the other day and he was acting kind of weird. - Weird? - Yeah. I'm sure it was work related, but he hasn't called since. - Men are strange sometimes. Just give him a few days, he'll resurface. And you should take a break here. - No, what I need, is to get this done. - You're obsessing. Come on, let's grab a pizza in town. Come on, come on, come on, come on. You're gonna love this place. - [Danielle] Yeah? - They have the best pizza in town. Hi. - Hi. - We're gonna have two pizzas to go. I'll have a margarita. - Sure. - And one for me as well. - Sure. - Thanks. I'm starving. - Oh, Danielle! Look! - [Danielle] Oh my God! - This... Ah, that's me! - [Danielle] Yeah! - That's me! I'm in the magazine! How did this happen? - Claire. Vivien's clever and wonderful assistant. She sent my photos to Beguile's biggest competitor. - That's amazing! That's wonderful, Danielle! - Yeah! - Breakout fashion designer Maloo spotlights the real woman with Romanian Folk inspired collection. How did we get scooped on this? - It must have been a last minute addition. They must have pulled something and replaced it with this Maloo. - I don't even know anything about this person. - How could we not know? We are Beguile magazine. We break new designers. We set the trend others follow. Will somebody please find out who this Maloo is? - Maloo? You named your clothing line after your grandmother's goat? - Claire must have used another name since I'm on the fashion blacklist. - Oh, that's funny. Oh, not that you're on the blacklist. - I got that. Thanks. - Thanks. - Well, I mean, this is very disappointing. I mean if somebody is going to have the audacity to spotlight the real woman, that should be us setting the trend. Claire, get in here. - I thought you weren't interested in pandering to overweight women too lazy to work out. - Don't you ever repeat that. This demographic has obviously become relevant. Claire, I want you to find the rep and invite Maloo and his or her people for dinner. We're days away from Fashion Week and we want to make sure that we have this designer in my hip pocket. - Is Maloo invited to Fashion Week? - Well, if not, have Richard make it happen. I want to make sure that Beguile dominates the front row of this show. Go on. - I'm on it. - [Vivien] Go on. - [Claire] You saw? - Yes. - I can't talk right now. Vivien's blown a head gasket when Mode Image scooped her on your layout. - Does she know Maloo is really me? - No, are you kidding? And get this! Beguile is sending an invite to Maloo for Fashion Week. So you better book that flight to New York ASAP. - Okay, okay, okay, bye, bye, bye, bye. - What? - I'm going to Fashion Week. As a designer! (cheering) (giggling) - Oh my God, oh my God! - This is surreal. I can't wait to tell Adrian. It was his idea to send the photos in the first place. - Yeah. - But, how am I going to get everything organized on time? - Well, we can pick up all the dresses you made for the girls. - That's a great idea! - Yeah! - I need to get to New York, organize the production, hire the models, hair, make-up. - Isn't it exciting? - It's terrifying. - I know. Oh, there is the restaurant Razvan took me to for our anniversary. - Oh. - It's so romantic. - Yeah? - Yeah. Hello, doggie. What? - He's there. - Who? - Adrian. - (gasps) Oh hell! - I knew something was wrong. - Hang on, let's not jump to conclusions. - He was holding her hand! - You're right, he was. - In my mind, we weren't seeing other people. - Well, maybe he has a different way of thinking. Do you wanna go back in there? - Yes. - I mean no, wait, I need to think for a second. - Okay. So? - No, I don't wanna go inside. Let's get the dresses. - Oh! (sad music) (speaking foreign language) - [Voiceover] May I help you? - I was calling to see if the flight is leaving on time. - [Voiceover] And your destination? - Bucharest to JFK. - [Voiceover] Can you hold please? - Sure, I'll hold. - Mom? - Yeah. - What is Grandma doing? - Salting the house, to keep entities at bay. - What for? - I don't know. There's a lot of stuff going on around here. Better to be safe. - [Voiceover] Your flight is leaving as scheduled. - Okay thanks. (phone buzzing) - Have you even talked to him? - No, I don't wanna talk to him. - You're sure? - Yes. Have you seen my headpieces? - All packed. Honey, be excited. This is your dream come true. - Yeah, you're right, it is. - Yeah. - Hey, hey, hey, inspector number eight is in the house. What's wrong with you all? - Sofia, did you see this? - Oh no. This can't be good. (sad music) - Attention ladies, gents. Please shut down the machines for a special meeting on the floor. Gather around. That's it. So, before I begin, I just, I want you to know how very proud and honored I am, to be the manager of this plant. I couldn't have asked for a better team. Now, I know there's been a lot of speculation so I am just gonna come out and say it. The owners of Euro Clothing Manufacturers have made a decision, based on the profit and loss of this plant. The plant will close effectively in 30 days. (speaking foreign language) It wasn't my decision. It's come down from the top, so... - I can't believe this. I've seen that woman. - Hello. As co-CEO of Edwards Industries, I'd just like to say, how appreciative we are of all your past efforts, so we will be offering you three months' severance to help ease your transition into alternate employment. - There is no alternate employment for us. This plant has supported our village for two generations. - I understand, and, this was a very difficult decision for our company to make, but nonetheless, this plant is no longer a viable asset. Thank you for your attention, and please see your plant manager for more information regarding your severance checks. - Adrian, what are you doing here? Are you part of this? - I'm so sorry, Sofia, I must catch up with my sister. I will explain everything, I promise you. - His sister? - Thank you, gentlemen and I will see you on the 12th. - [Both] Okay. - Can you get the papers to legal before my meeting? - Bea, Beatrix! What are you doing? I've got three more months here. - I had a conference with the board and they've changed their mind. - You do realize this entire town was built on our father's legacy? He committed to these people. - But the China Factor has completely changed the industry. We have to adapt. - Say what you want about China, but these people are turning out a product they actually care about. High quality can set us apart. If you give me the time that we've agreed on-- - You are not helping these people by dragging this out. It's better to do things swift, clean so they can move on with their lives. We can talk about this when you get home, but right now, I have to catch a plane. - You can't do this without my signature. - The board overruled you, airport please. (phone buzzing) - Hello. - Danielle. They are closing down the plant. - Oh no, Sofia, I'm so sorry. - Remember that woman we saw Adrian with at the restaurant? She's his sister. And he co-owns the manufacturing plant with her. - What? - Yes, Adrian knew all this time they were going to shut it down, and he didn't say a thing. - I don't believe this. (door knocking) - Oh, it's you. - So you've heard the news? - Sofia called. - I realize it must sound terrible. - Yes. - I was here to see if I could turn the factory around. - Oh, I guess it didn't work. - No. The board pulled the plug on me, but I'm not giving up. Look, is Danielle here? I desperately need to speak to her. - She left for New York. - New York? - She's showing her clothing line at Fashion Week. - You're kidding? That's fantastic news. - She's very upset with you. Why did you keep so many secrets from her? - I know this must sound kind of crazy, but all my life I've just been the son of one of the Forbes 500, Adrian Edwards, but then I came here and no one made that connection, I was just Adrian, and then I met Danielle, and then I had this chance at a real relationship. - What other kind of relationship is there? - You'd be amazed at how fascinating I suddenly become to women when they discover my net worth. - Then, you don't know Danielle. - But I do now, I'm sorry. - You better come in. (upbeat music) - [Agent] Yeah, tell them Danielle is the designer Maloo and I'm her press agent. Great, bye, Danielle? - Yes? - Okay, so, to recap. We're gonna do a quick meet and greet with the press right before the show. - Actually, I prefer to meet the press after the show. I want them to see the collection first, if that's okay with you. - All right, sure, that's your call. - Now, this is the mystery collection from a designer named Maloo. - Everyone is gonna show up tonight. I mean I got Fashion TV, Beguile, Mode Image, all the major buyers have already RSVP'd. It's gonna be a full house. Take a look. - We don't know who he or she is. All we know is this is the show that... - So could you pull past the main entrance and over to the side? - [Announcer] And now with us, is fashion editor Drake. Drake, how are you tonight? - Pretty cool. - [Danielle] Wow. - Big crowd. Come on, let's go. (upbeat music) - Yeah, perfect. - Excited? - [Danielle] Yes, very. - Well you should be. Oh, wait a minute. Wait, wait, wait, wait. You'll get all the photos and interviews after the show. Ben, are you here? - Right here, Danielle? - Hi. - Great, right this way. - Yeah. - All right, I'll be up front, good luck. - Thank you so much. - Welcome to New York Fashion Week. - Are all the models here? - Yes. - Wow. You're looking great. - [Model] Hi, Danielle. - Hey, hi. Martina, how you feeling? - Fine, and you? - [Voiceover] I need the hairspray, hairspray please. - Hi. - Hi Mia, that's perfect. Hi Dixie. - Hi Danielle. - How are you? - Oh, I'm fine. - Good. Zane. - Okay I know, I'm going, but, I brought her flowers. - All right, come on, come on. - See you later, Dix. - Okay, bye Zane. - [Zane] Good luck, good luck. - Thank you, thank you. - [Ben] All right, we're on in 15! (frolicking music) - Hello darling, call me. - Vivien. You look amazing. As always. - Thank you, Drake. - I can't believe they sat Vivien next to Drake of Mode Image. - Right. - Okay, can I have a little bit of burst here? And, Mia, I need a little bit of black powder. - Okay. - Hmm-mm. - This should be interesting. - Hmm. - Okay, I can't find this designer anywhere in here. - No one has seen her. It's got to be a marketing thing - Did Maloo preview the collection for you? - No. To you? - No. - Ready, Danielle? - Good luck, you look perfect. (upbeat music) - Okay, Maloo, let's see what you've got. - [Danielle] Perfect. - [Ben] She's fine, she's fine? - [Danielle] Yeah. - Good, good. And go. (upbeat music) - Ssshht, ssshht! - [Ben] Go. - [Dixie] It's broken. - What's wrong, the belt? - [Dixie] Yeah. (upbeat music) - [Ben] Come on, darling. (upbeat music) - I like that. - [Dixie] It's hanging down. - Yeah, that's fine, that's fine, just go, yeah, yeah, just go. - [Ben] Yeah, yeah, yeah. - Okay, go, go, go. (upbeat music) - Oh Danielle is a genius! - Wow. - This is my dress, this is my dress! (speaking foreign language) (chattering) - And go, go. - [Dixie] Oh my God, Danielle, the skirt! - Don't panic, I will fix it. - [Dixie] Ah, it's stuck. - [Ben] Come on, come on, come on. - [Dixie] Oh my God, I have to go! - Dixie, is she coming? - Yeah, she's ready, she's ready. - [Ben] Come on Dixie. - That one. (upbeat music) (applauding) (serene music) (applauding) - Danielle is Maloo? - Yeah. - I think I'm gonna be sick. (serene music) (applauding) - [Drake] Wow Vivien, she is wonderful isn't she? (cheering) (serene music) (applauding) (bottle popping) (cheering) - [Back Model] Cheers! (applauding) (chattering) - Cheers. - Oh my God! That was so awesome! (cheering) - I have you to thank. You were the one that made it happen. - No! You did! Look, I know you're busy, I'll see you out there okay? - Absolutely. (cheering) - Claire. - You were great. Beautiful, thank you. - Look at you. The toast of the town. - Hi, Lance. - Congratulations. You did it. And you should have seen the look on Vivien's face. I mean, it was priceless. So, how is the sweet taste of revenge? - That wasn't my intention. - Doesn't matter. You stunned her and the entire fashion world. And I'm proud of you, kiddo. - Thanks. - I missed you. - Was that before or after the show was a hit? - Okay, I deserve that. Let's get a quiet dinner somewhere. Somewhere nice and romantic. I can eat crow and apologize properly. - Apology accepted, but I'm afraid I'm not available tonight. - Excuse me, Danielle. I need you for the step and repeat. The press is going through the roof, they loved your show. You're gonna change? - Oh, of course. - [Agent] Okay. - Yes. - So, tomorrow night maybe? - Sorry Lance, bye. (cheerful music) (reporters chattering) - Drake, come over here, my friend. How are you, good to see you. - Hey good to see you. - The rumor on the street is, is that you are the one that discovered Danielle, is that true? - Oh, oh, ssshht, they are talking about Danielle. - Yes. - You did. - Yes. (chattering) - Here's Vivien Thompson, editor from Beguile Magazine. It's complete madness here. We hear Danielle was a former employee of yours. Did you help her, inspire her, something? - No. - Well, anyway, you look amazing, as usual. Thank you very much, Vivian. Vivian Thompson, from Beguile Magazine. Live from the red carpet. (chattering) And here she is. Danielle, the designer of Maloo. How does it feel? - There is she is, my baby girl! - Danielle, you just shocked... - Danielle, can we get a picture of you with Vivien? - Go ahead, Danielle, go ahead. - Danielle, I don't say this often, but I was wrong about you. Maybe Beguile is the one that needs the attitude adjustment. - Thank you, Vivien, I know that wasn't easy for you. - I don't suppose you'd be willing to give us an exclusive. - As a matter of fact I would. But I need to ask you something in return. - [Vivien] Well, what would that be? - Consider Claire for my replacement. - Claire, my assistant? What makes you think that she has the stuff? - She discovered Maloo. - That clever little minx. - Hey. - Where were you? - I was uh-- - You were back stage with Danielle, weren't you? - Just saying hi. Wait, Elaine. Elaine, come on! - Claire, I'd like a few words with you. - Yes, Vivien. - Congratulations you're promoted. - [Reporter] Danielle, can I talk to you for a second? - Of course. - [Reporter] You've got to be so exited tonight. - Yes I am. - Okay, the big buzz is your use of different sized models. What gave you the inspiration for that? - Well, the beautiful factory workers in my hometown. - Oh, we're the girls, we're the girls! (cheering) - Are you gonna stay here in New York or are you gonna go back home? - I haven't had a chance to think about that yet. - Okay. - [Adrian] What about manufacturing the clothing line in Romania? - I was hoping to, but sadly, I've gotten word that the plant is being closed down. - [Adrian] That's not exactly correct. - I'm sorry? - As it happens. - [Right Reporter] Hey, excuse me, excuse me, sir. - One of the owners was able to turn the board around on that decision. - Really. - Adrian, she's with Adrian! - What would you say if this owner, was to stay in Romania and to make Maloo the head of design of the factory? - I would have to say... Yes, I would love that job. - They are not going to close the factory! (cheering) - So, what do we do now? - Kiss her, kiss her! - [Reporters] Kiss her, kiss her, kiss her. - Let's give the people what they want. (romantic music) (cheering) (applauding) (romantic music) (upbeat music) I see you just about every other day Sometimes you'll look at me At times you turn away There's one little thing I think you should know I'm just the girl to change your world The girl next door you're looking for Turn around, I'm right here I'm just the girl to change your world Yeah, yeah Don't need to make a scene Don't need to show it off Cause I got everything More than you can dream You'd better hope, I'll still be around I'm just the girl to change your world The girl next door, you're looking for Take notice I'm right here I'm just the girl to change your world Yeah Should you decide to go And finally make your move I'm here to talk about it No need to scream and shout it Cause I don't really mean To go and make a scene That's not how I see you and me I'm just the girl to change your world The girl next door, you're looking for Turn around, I'm right here I'm just the girl Oh Oh-ho Oh oh The girl The girl to change your world (relaxing music) (cheerful music) (frantic music) |
