(uplifting music)
- Hey, everything okay?
- I've got two weeks to come up with two routines
and I can't even find a partner.
- Not to mention, your friends are mad at you.
Sorry, you should try to reach out to them.
- They're the ones who started it.
- Sure, but why should you let your pride get in the way?
You know, you should fix things with them
and then you can just focus on your dancing.
What?
- Sorry, it's just
really strange hearing those words come out of your mouth.
- Well, maybe I'm wiser than you think.
Now go talk to your friends.
(upbeat rock music)
(upbeat music)
- I can't believe it.
The parlor's flavor of the day is Espresso Swirl
and it comes with a cup of coffee.
- That sounds pretty good.
- Jenna.
- No, they're taunting us,
they're trying to get into our heads.
- You know, this rivalry thing
might be good for my next article.
Can I interview you guys?
- We need to put all our energy
into helping Junior right now.
- Besides, everything I learned is from Spencer.
Why don't you just ask him?
- I'm here to make peace.
I'm sorry about the other day.
Things just got so out of hand.
- Well, we're ready to forgive you if you quit the parlor.
- But I need this job to pay for my audition.
- Well, then there's nothing more to say.
- Bye.
- Whoa, dude.
I am so proud of you, man.
- Thank you.
I'll send you a postcard.
- Absolutely.
- What's that?
- Sam, he finished the course.
- Spencer let me work ahead.
- Really?
- You know, actually a good friend once told me
that I probably shouldn't shy away from my responsibilities
so I didn't.
- Wow.
What did Kate say?
- I haven't told her yet.
I don't know if I will.
- Sam, I mean, she's your sister.
I think she'd be proud of you.
- You have one week Thomas.
- Uh, is everything okay?
- Oh, you're the ones.
Next time, don't take business advice from little girls.
Let's go.
(intense music)
- What was that about?
- Just a little visit from my investors.
Investors, you're working with the Roach gang?
- It's a long story.
- Let's put some ice on that.
- All right look just, you have done enough.
Just find another place for your free office space.
- [Spencer] Staple up high, slide it to the side,
staple up high, slide it to the side.
Staple up high, slide it to the side.
- Did you write that yourself?
- Yeah, it's called the, it's called the staple slide.
- Are you busy right now?
- [Spencer] Nah, I'm just singing.
- So, there's something I really need to talk to you about.
Can I buy you coffee later?
- Yeah, yeah.
What time?
- You just let me know when you're free
and we can meet then.
- Excellent.
Have a good night.
- It's noon actually.
- Yeah, you're right.
- [Jenna] But yeah, see you later then.
- You too.
Bye.
- [Kate] Here, I made us some juice.
- Juice.
How is juice supposed to help us in this situation?
- I don't know how to deal with mobsters.
You're right, it isn't helping.
- This is good though.
- No nut allergy, right?
Just making sure.
- You know you don't have to ask every customer.
- Hey, better to be safe than sorry.
So how was your break?
- I don't want to talk about it.
- Oh that good huh?
- Did you ever daydream as a kid?
- What do you mean?
- Well, when my friends didn't talk to me,
I'd pretend I was an astronaut.
It made things easier.
- I'd imagine I was a race car driver,
Axel McQueen, fastest on the track.
- That's really cute.
Axel McQueen.
- I've never actually told anyone that before,
so don't make me regret it.
(phone chimes)
- I've got a partner.
- Really, who?
- Remember that guy Jerry?
- Oh, Jerry.
(upbeat music)
- Thanks.
- Thank you.
- Of course, glad we could do this.
- Oh yeah, I was actually a little surprised you asked.
- So, Kate and Morgan tell me
you've been really helpful this summer.
- Oh, yeah.
I love what they're doing with their site.
You can do a lot with digital marketing.
- Really?
Like what?
- You really want to know about this stuff?
- Absolutely.
- Okay, cool.
Well, we can just start at the basic level,
which is knowing your audience.
- [Morgan] What'd you put in this juice?
- Who knows?
- Okay well, enough wallowing around,
it's time to take action.
- What are we going to do?
Take down the mob.
- Yes.
- Morgan, this is real life.
This isn't one of our fantasies.
- You're right, it's not a fantasy,
but we gotta help Junior.
- Okay.
It was one thing
when we were fighting with an ice cream shop,
but this is the Roach gang.
- Brandy's a woman, we can level with her.
- You sound ridiculous.
- You know what?
And you sound like a coward.
I'm so sick and tired of always being dragged down by you.
- Well don't worry, okay?
I won't hold you back anymore.
- [Morgan] Stop.
It's your house, I'll go.
- Okay go.
- I'll go.
- Yeah, good.
- [Spencer] So the parlor uses competitive prices
and a diversified menu
to rapidly increase market shares, I'm sorry.
I feel like I'm doing a lot of talking.
- No, no, go on.
Are there any new laws about predatory pricing
that prevent these situations?
- I didn't know you were so interested in this stuff.
- Oh, I'm not.
I am doing an article for Tres Chic
and this is exactly what I needed.
- Wow, I'm an idiot.
I don't know why I keep constantly convincing myself
that you're actually interested in me.
- I thought you understood.
I'm doing an article, I'm sorry.
- Thanks for the coffee.
- [Sam] Hey, I got you something.
- I can't look at another green juice.
- So, I graduated today.
- Already?
But there's still a few more weeks of summer.
- Congratulations would do.
- Congrats, Sam.
- Thank you.
I have to talk to you about something.
- I might need this.
- I'm leaving for a tour tomorrow.
I finished my credits.
There's nothing keeping me here.
- What about me?
- I didn't mean it like that, okay?
This needs more lemon.
(subtle piano music)
- How was your date with Jenna?
- Can we just focus on the lab, please?
- I came to say goodbye.
- That's it?
You're leaving?
- We just need more time.
- Junior is out of time.
