DAPHNE ZUNIGA GUEST STARS - As Blake and Cristal attend a Yale reunion, Blake runs into an old friend, Sonya, who has more than just the reunion on her mind. Alexis' launch of her "miracle cream" faces a set back and Sam offers his assistance and Adam scrambles to get what Alexis wants.

Plot Summary[]

SPOILERS AHEAD

Blake feels his age until he and Cristal get an illicit proposal to swing with Sonya, a former Yale classmate, and her husband. They decline but are invigorated by the offer. Alexis, Adam, and Sam navigate numerous obstacles (lack of product, bad PR, and self doubt) while launching Alexam's face cream. Jeff resigns from Morell Green Energy to go after price-gauging pharmaceuticals. Fallon, stinging from her current infertility, tries to help him by extorting data from an unethical drug company. Amanda's failed attempt to rescue Kirby from a crooked modeling contract results in their first romantic kiss.[2]

Quotes[]

Blake: What's so funny?
Cristal: Oh, there you are. This is Henry. He was just showing me this Jeff Bezos video with a Taylor Swift song playing, but different words.
Blake: Yeah, I don't get it.
Cristal: Oh, well, the... You just have to know the song.


Amanda: Okay, great, so we just show up to the party, we swipe the phone, we forward Kirby's contracts, and then we just delete all the evidence so she doesn't notice. It's so simple.
Michael: This is not sounding like a "we" type of situation.


Cristal: Well, hold on, I-I never said I wanted to swing with a random couple. I'm only doing this because I thought you liked the idea.
Blake: Well, didn't you say you wanted me to be more adventurous?
Cristal: I just wanted you to wear a different shirt. But then I saw you all hot and bothered with Sonya, and it seemed like you had decided that this was what you needed.
Blake: Yeah, I'll admit that it was nice to be admired, but that's all it was. I was only doing this to impress you.
Cristal: You impress me every day. And honestly? I just want to get in bed and relax. Our bed, not theirs.
Blake: Well, then, what the hell are we still doing here?
Sonya (distant): Are you two coming?


Kirby: Then why did you do it?
Amanda: This is the question, isn't it? Um... You and I have gotten to know each other quite well recently, and... I think you're fantastic. So I guess I was somewhat, um, jealous.
Kirby: Jealous? Amanda, you're a successful lawyer and a genius and a good friend. I'm just a dumb model. What do you have to be jealous of?
Amanda: It's not what, it's who. I-I'm not jealous of you, Kirby, I'm jealous of Charlie. Because she gets to be with you.
Kirby: Oh.
Amanda: I like you, Kirby. I think that I have for a while now. But I do not want to mess up anything that you have with Charlie, because I want you to be happy. And you are not a dumb model. Okay? You're funny and you are kind and you are clever, and, well, you're pretty nice to look at. And every time I'm with you, I just, I-I feel like...


Kirby: I have to go.
