Invisible Mom

Previously on "Eye Candy"...

Jake Bolin stood you up?

Looks that way.

I don't want our first kiss to be for money.

It's not working.

Want my help?

We make a good team, Lindy.

Testing. How do I look?

Beautiful.

Where are you taking me?

You just wait and see.

God, I've missed you.

Me too.

- What was that? - You'll see.

You ready?

Yeah.

- No way! - I thought you deserved an upgrade.

It's better than my crummy

apartment with four roommates listening in.

And way better than a hotel.

It's huge.

Whose place is this, anyhow?

I rented it on Virtual Slumber.

It probably belongs to some euro

oligarch who uses it to launder money, and they left us wine.

I'm not sure how long I can do this cross-country thing.

Soon you'll graduate and I'll get offered a job at the firm.

But right now, we have the whole weekend,

and no one can bother us.

"With compliments of Virtual Slumber, welcome home."

I say we try every surface we can find.

Thanks for this.

You're my girl.

Morning, sleepyhead.

Beth?

EYE CANDY S01E07 - SOS -

One black americana, just how you like it.

Thanks.

I was... I was late.

I was early.

It's good to see you.

I'm afraid this is more of a coffee favor than a catch-up.

Okay.

What's going on?

An old intern of mine has gotten into a weird situation.

It's actually kind of terrifying

and he's refusing to go to the police.

What happened?

I think he should tell you himself.

It was supposed to be fun.

I wanted to make Beth feel special.

She only gets to visit me every month or so.

You know, it wasn't exactly cheap, either.

Neither of you remember anything else about that night?

Not after we fell asleep, no.

Somebody must've drugged us.

There was wine.

We drank that.

The next morning, Beth was out cold and I...

What?

I woke up with this.

You need to see a doctor.

Beth and I went to one.

I was more worried that she was okay,

but nothing was done to her.

Nothing?

No.

Except she's totally freaked.

Who would do this?

Iluxa Electronic.

They booked the apartment online.

I thought maybe you could see who came in and out of the apartment.

You should go to the police.

You don't understand.

I'm this close to getting

offered the job of a lifetime with Jake's law firm.

They do thorough background checks.

You know how humiliating it would be if anyone found out about this?

Jake's the only one there I trust.

He's got a point.

Okay, I can't force you to file a complaint,

but what about your girlfriend?

She's okay with this decision?

Yes.

Please.

Jake says you can help us.

Okay. I'll see what I can find out.

I still think Nick should go to the police.

Maybe they can figure out if it's a sick prank or something first.

I promise if it's anything more, then...

I'll take it to the Cyber Crimes Unit.

Yeah.

Look. I want to apologize.

I know I bailed on our last date because of work,

which is a terrible excuse and now I'm coming to you with a favor.

- It's okay. - No, it's not.

I really like you.

This isn't exactly how I wanted things to go.

So how did you want it to go?

Kinda like that.

Yeah. Okay.

After this case is closed,

I am making it up to you. We're doing dinner.

No more cooking.

What, you don't like my cooking?

It's just...

There are places in New York that can actually cook for you.

I did hear that somewhere.

Thanks for helping. I mean it, you're incredible.

How did that taste, Lindy?

Other guys don't understand you.

Do I have to kill someone else to get your attention?

Please... Don't make me do something we will all regret.

So, he's carrying me upstairs

on his back, and I can feel his muscles keeping me from falling

into this hundred-foot ravine.

Lindy!

Look who's here.

Tessa.

- My God, Lindy! - Hi.

It's amazing to meet you finally.

- Such a surprise. - Just off the plane.

You must try a caipirinha. Go on.

It's the Brazilian national drink.

Nectar of the gods. Trust me.

- These people know how to live. - Thanks.

I learned how to make these at a bar in Ipanema.

Be warned. Too many and you'll definitely

crave a party somewhere. Everywhere.

So that's where you've been... Brazil.

- One of the places. - Hence the communication blackout.

I woke up on my 22nd birthday

and I realized, I'd only been to two out of the

seven continents, so I left.

I wanted to go where no one gets to go,

see the things they never get to see.

I can't believe you've become such an adventurer.

Never thought you'd see the day, right?

Honestly, no. When we were in boarding school,

she was so afraid of flying that she wouldn't even go back home

to England to see her family for the holidays.

I conquered my fear and now I'm conquering all my fears.

How long are you staying the city?

I have no idea. I guess I'm just taking it one day at a time.

So you're okay with it? With her staying?

- Of course. - But you need to tell her.

What?

That we're rationed only six minutes in the shower,

as our hot water tank sucks?

Stop it.

If she's going to stay, she needs to know.

I have not seen Tessa in so long.

I just want to spend time with her.

I mean, I have to ease her into the whole crazy time thing.

You mean crazy in the whole serial killer sense of the word?

Yes.

If she stays, you tell her everything.

Fine.

Hi.

Well, hello.

Let me guess. You're here for Lindy?

That's negotiable.

- I'm Tessa. - I'm...

Impressa.

- We should go out. - George.

That's four of us. Four definitely makes a party.

Yes, it does.

Lindy?

- Yes, Lindy. - Yeah, sorry.

George and I have some work that we really need to catch up on.

- Do we? - Next time.

Next time, yeah. Okay.

Everything on Virtual Slumber is done electronically.

People fill out a profile online, rent an apartment,

it gets sent a QR key that opens a digital lock.

What about the owner of the apartment?

Lives in Paris full time.

Okay, first off, the whole concept is disgusting, okay?

Renting someone else's apartment with all their things and

sleeping in their bed? People sweat a liter of water

into their mattress every night. That's practically a waterbed.

Okay. It looks like this apartment

isn't available until tomorrow. Booking now.

So...

I know you got this case from Jake, but what you're not

telling me is, what's going on with you guys?

I don't know. It's confusing.

Why? 'Cause you like him?

I'm so not helping you until you admit you like him.

I like him.

Maybe.

What?

Maybe? Come on.

That wasn't that hard, was it? Move.

Jeez. Okay.

Let's see.

That's weird. The apartment network is protected.

Really protected.

So how do we get a closer look?

Both: Fibertap.
