The Client List

Previously on The Client List...

What kind of man takes advantage of his brother's wife?

Evan, what happened?

Construction and I are on the outs.

It might be time for me to find a new line of work.

Evan's gonna be a cop, and you're a --

Business owner?

Now we got clients coming out of our asses.

I'm getting ready to hire some new girls myself.

How do I know who to trust? Follow your gut.

Who the hell are you? This is our new girl, Nikki.

Welcome to the family.

If Kyle's pulled you into something,

it won't just be the money or your freedom you could lose.

It'll be your family. I just can't take anymore --

between the kids and mama's accident.

Your mom told me the bail hearing happened.

How'd it go? Do you happen to have $7,500?

This is for Kyle's bail. I did all of this for you.

Do you like what you do here?

I love what I do. I get to put my P.T. training to use.

You give a good interview.

Welcome to the Rub of Sugar Land.

Riley, is there something going on with you and my brother?

I don't know.

If you don't want to take his money, that's fine,

but we're out of options. Pay the bail.

Riley: Oh, Dashiell, London sounds amazing.

I would die to go.

Oh, it's a great city, Riley,

but it's a lot of traveling for one game.

Preseason was a blast when I was younger, and now...

Well, I could never get tired of that --

your life. It seems great.

Pro ball gives you everything that you want.

Travel, packed stadiums, money.

Women.

Exactly.

There's just times when you want more.

Not more... just different.

After a while, the thrill is gone.

Except here.

Well, I'll show you thrilling.

Ooh. All righty.

God, you're beautiful.

I bet there is not a dull moment in your life.

Oh.

You have no idea.

Both: Mud pie! Mud pie!

Yeah, I know that they look like mud pies,

but they're actually scones.

What happened to our pancakes?

Well, mama wanted to try something different.

Is that because daddy's coming home today?

Maybe. Both: Daddy's coming home!

Daddy's coming home! Daddy's coming home!

Yay!

The kids make this mess?

No, that was me, and you're not helping.

Hey, is your shoulder still hurting you?

You're supposed to re in your sling.

It's nothing I can't handle,

which is more than I can say about your scones.

Are they too hard?

They have a certain density.

You know what? I threw out the first batch,

and I'm sorry that I'm more of a pancake girl

and I didn't get your baking gene.

Well, "A" for effort, and if the kids won't eat these,

you can always use it as a hockey puck.

Mama!

I'll get the kids ready.

Hey! Come on in. Morning.

Wow, you look --

Busy. I know.

Not really what I was gonna say, but okay.

Hey, thanks for taking the kids to school.

Today just got crazy around here.

Of course.

You okay? Yeah, yeah. I'm fine.

It's just, you know, Kyle's hearing is today

and he's gonna get out, and once that happens,

I'm just not quite sure how I'm gonna handle that.

Same way you've been handling this past year.

Yeah, well, it's not that simple.

I went to see him a few days ago, and he knows about us.

I know.

You know?

What do you think our fight was about

when you bailed me out of jail?

I probably should have said something before.

Yeah, well, you didn't.

Riley, I was just trying to make things easier

for you, for us.

You have a little flour.

Sorry.

You mean the world to me.

I just want to be able to say it out loud to you, to everyone.

You know what? The kids are right down the hall.

Oh, hey.

Uncle Evan! Okay, let's go to school.

Uncle Evan, let's go.

Okay, hey, kisses, please. Thank you.

Okay.

I love you. Go.

I'll call you later. Uh-huh.

Aah! Oh, sorry.

Time to switch those two to decaf. Geez.

What's the story, morning glory?

Let's move out.

Hair extensions and dye jobs wait for no woman.

Be right with you. Oh! Oh, mama, are you okay?

Oh, I'm fine. I'm sorry about the pitcher.

Oh, don't worry. We'll clean it up.

Are you sure that you're ready to go back to work?

It's nothing. I have clients.

Okay, well, did you think about what I asked?

I'm not moving in with you.

You've got enough on your plate right now.

Besides, I can take care of myself.

Now, I'm going to work, which is exactly what you should do.

Is that understood? Yes, ma'am.

Here. Breakfast. Oh, thank you.

I wouldn't if I were you.

== sync, corrected by elderman ==

Thank you for bringing my suit.

Yeah, of course.

After our last conversation,

I wasn't sure when I'd see you again.

Kyle, I got you a lawyer and I paid your bail

because I wanted to get you out of here.

But we really can't keep having this conversation.

I know, and I'm sorry...

for everything.

I want you to know how much I appreciate all that you've done.

Uh, here.

Kids made that for you.

That thing in there is a donkey.

Travis is big on donkeys these days.

Tell him I love him.

I will.

Man, are they excited to see you.

I can't wait to see them.

I miss them so much.

Yeah, we'll have to figure out a time or a place

once you get out of here.

Well, you'll bring them to the hearing?

Please.

Oh, I don't know about that.

Riley, it'd mean the world to me if they were there.

I don't -- I don't think a jail or a courtroom

is the right place.

You're just gonna have to see them the second you get home.

Well, will you come?

I know that it's a lot to ask.

I know you got work.

It'd be a huge help if you were there.

Yeah, of course I'll be there.

Okay, well...

I'll be there.

Thank you.

Okay, morning, everyone.

I just want to say that all of you guys are amazing.

Over the past month, profits are up 62%.

Our client feedback has been stellar,

and it's all because of you ladies.

And gentleman. Well, thank you, darlin'.

You know what? Pamela brings up a great point.

Derek, you get an extra shout-out today

because you have built up our female client base

faster than I could have ever expected,

and your repeat clients -- very impressive.

So, great work. Can somebody please let her in?

Sorry. All right, y'all.

Let's go and make some people happy, huh?

Okay, Selena, Nikki, Pamela,

I need to speak to y'all privately.

Sorry I'm late. I hope you got my message.

What message? This morning.

I left a message at the front desk with Selena.

Oh, yeah. Pippi Longstockings might be late. Mm-hmm.

Okay, I just wanted to remind y'all

to tell your client list clients

that they can use the private V.I.P. entrance in the back.

It's gonna be a lot more secure, and remember,

no "special treatment" talk in the lobby.

You got it. And before you go, I've got some great news.

Look!

Okay, what am I looking at?

A semester full of college extension courses.

Oh, I was off having two kids.

Yeah, I mean, I never saw myself getting my degree, either,

but now that I've got the money, stability, and support...

Well, your clients love you, and so do we.

Now get to work. Well...

...keep the clients coming. Dirty.

Okay.

We've got a problem.

Oh, and Debbie Downer's back.

Someone's been snooping around. My lock's been jimmied.
