Are you fucking kidding me, Cam? You're trying to take the team from me?
No, I'm not trying. It's done. I already did it.
- You asshole! - You're upset.
And I forgive you.
We're not gonna announce this till the end of the season.
You don't have to go back to charities.
I'll make you a... I'll make you a senior advisor.
The bullshit job that we created for you because you were a drug addict?
Well, now you know how I felt.
You told me you didn't want your job back.
Well, I lied, okay?
It's classic addict behavior, and if I don't lie, guess what?
I don't get what I want.
Oh my God. You only made me president because you thought I'd fail.
You've been trying to sabotage me this whole time.
First of all, I didn't think you'd get to the playoffs last season.
Secondly, you blocked me from getting the only coach I wanted.
Then you, Norm, and Marcus somehow got on the same page.
- I was shit out of luck until I got Al. - Mm-hmm. You know why?
Because I'm good at my job.
- I can't believe you're doing this. - Now here are your options.
You can put a smile on your face.
We're gonna tell people this is how it was supposed to go all along.
Or you can make a big, ugly mess of this thing,
and you will get fired.
But either way, when this season ends, I will be running the team.
Well, until then, this is my office, so get the fuck out!
- Jackie! - Jackie!
Jackie, I want you to tell Cam
I don't want him setting foot in my office ever again.
Jackie, I want you to tell her
that pretty soon, this is not gonna be her office,
and she should pack up her shit and get the fuck out.
You guys heard each other, right?
Yes. Thank you, Jackie.
This is classic Cam.
He's so annoying with his little bracelets and huge scarves.
Why is he always so cold?
Ali, what do I do here?
We kill him. I can cut his brakes.
- My cousin's a mechanic. He showed me how. - No, no, no, no, no.
No. If anything, we'd make it look like an overdose.
But we're not doing that!
Well, we have to do something.
Look, my job is as good as gone if Cam takes over. He hates my ass.
One time, I caught him using my eye shadow, and he never forgave me.
Look, if you wanna put a stop to this,
you have to convince Stephen not to sell his shares.
- Yes! Stephen! - Right.
Okay, I'm gonna find him.
And we always have the overdose option as a backup.
Ali, there can be no evidence that we ever spoke of that.
Just act casual.
- Hey, she's not in her office. - I know.
I don't like this. I don't like this at all.
I'm getting itchy.
- Are my hives resurfacing? - Oh God!
How are they pulsating?
Honestly, it's stressing me out too.
Why can't we figure out a way that Isla and Cam both get what they want?
Like if I gave you $20 and you put calamine lotion on my back.
Stop. Stop. Maybe we can fix this, you know?
There's... there's a lot of power being in the middle.
Yeah, we play it like CT and Trishelle on Traitors season 2.
You watch Traitors? Why didn't you tell me? We could...
Never mind. Let's go talk to Cam.
Maybe we can negotiate something between him and Isla.
- Okay. - Okay.
Hey, would you want to do a Traitors podcast with me?
- We call it Alan Cummings and Goings. - I'm not doing another podcast with you.
I have some big news.
I just found out I'm going to be in Christopher Nolan's new movie,
Charlemagne, with Austin Butler.
Wow, that's huge.
I know, but the movie films in Bulgaria, and I'll be gone for five months.
Oh, wow.
Well, I'll just come visit you after the season.
Actually, I used to play in Sofia
until they turned the arena into a prison for political dissidents.
Look, Dyson, I really like you, but I really need to focus on this movie.
It's a lot of work with Austin, and he's a method actor.
Wait a minute.
Are you breaking up with me so you can pretend to be Austin Butler's wife?
I think our lives are headed in different directions right now.
Is this because I didn't know who Toni Morrison was?
Toni's a man's name.
No, it's not that, but you should read more.
I leave in a couple of days,
and you should be focused on the playoffs anyway.
Wow, I lost my appetite.
Excuse me. Can I have my Lil' Shogun chicken tenders to go?
Thank you.
With over 185 newly constructed bus and train routes, the LA Olympics...
Excuse me. Stephen?
Stephen.
Hi. It's Isla. From work.
Why are you doing here? You're not on the committee for the Olympics.
Uh...
- Did you steal that badge? - No. I'm, uh...
Venus Williams! I love her. Is she coming?
- Oh Jesus. - Uh...
Make it quick. I don't want to miss the reveal of the Games' mascot.
I'm hoping they use my idea.
A coyote named Cali.
Great. Stephen, I just don't think you should sell.
Look where I've gotten the team.
We have a legit chance to win a title this year.
That would be amazing, and a perfect way to go out on top.
Okay, damn it, that's poetic for you, but what about what we've built together?
Isla, I like you, and I do respect what you've done,
but I can't turn down the kinda money that Al is offering.
Okay, so there's nothing I can do to convince you not to sell?
Not unless you find someone that'll pay me more money than Al.
Okay. Well, then that's what I'm gonna do.
I will get back to you ASAP with an offer.
Mmm. Well, you better leave before Venus gets here.
She won't appreciate your shenanigans.
What do you guys want?
'Cause Lizzy's opening a jewelry store at the Brentwood Country Mart,
and I gotta be there.
Well, we just wanted to talk about your plan for next season
in regards to Isla,
because we think she's been doing pretty good as president.
- Really? - Yeah.
- Better than me? - No, no.
No, we... Look, we... we love you, bro, okay?
But it's that, you know, she's family too,
and so we were thinking maybe that you guys could be, um...
I don't know,
co-presidents.
No. No.
Nothing has two presidents.
And don't say those pussy countries that have a prime minister and a president.
Look, we know it's a little unorthodox,
but Ness and I are the highest level employees here,
and we've worked with both you and Isla.
Yeah, and... and in transition times like this, we could be very crucial.
Are you guys trying to fucking middle me? You think I'm like a Johnny Bananas?
You watch Traitors too?
Guys, it's my favorite show!
Hey, this isn't a fucking game, all right?
And you two don't have the power that you think you have.
Okay, well, for the record, I never thought I had power
until Sandy convinced me.
- I... - All right, listen to me.
You love your sister, right? Technically, we all "love" each other.
But you two dumbasses need to choose a side, and I would recommend
choosing the side that can give you a fucking job next season, understand?
- Yeah. - Yeah.
Okay. Bring it in.
Come on!
You're my baby bro. I love you.
- I love you too. - Love you too.
Come on. Get over here.
Hey, don't forget we committed a financial crime together, all right?
- Love you. - Love you.
- That was... not good. - No, no.
I've been looking for you guys.
Isla, look. I had no idea about Cam's plan.
I swear on my children.
And I swear on my cat, which is the same thing.
- Didn't he die? - Remy lives on in my heart.
We cannot pretend to care about Sandy's dead cat right now.
We need funds. We need them fast.
Sandy, you're my CFO. What are we gonna do?
- We? - Mm-hmm.
As in, like, uh, we us, the three of us against Cam?
Yes! Uh...
- Unless you think Cam should be president. - No.
- No, I... I wouldn't phrase it like that. - Mm-mm.
I would say maybe, um, there are good people on both sides.
Okay, and Ness, what about you?
No, why I... I was thinking co-presidents, but Cam shot that down, so...
Wow.
You're just gonna wait and see how this plays out, huh?
Fine. I'll do this on my own.
- Good people on both sides? - Co-presidents?
- It's an idea. - So is mine.
Welcome to game one of the playoff matchup
between your very own LA Waves and the Phoenix Flames.
All right, come on.
- Bring it in. - Game 1. Let's go.
- Lock in. Lock in. - Let's go. Bring it in.
We're ready to tip off and Waves playoff basketball.
Dyson Gibbs, right?
- Yeah. - You're in my seat.
- Oh. Uh, my bad. - Dyson, get over here!
Thanks for keeping it warm.
Game one of the playoffs, and we are underway.
Gibbs dribbles, shoots.
It's an air ball!
Dyson, get your head in the game!
Let's see if Dyson can get it going.
Horrible pass.
Another turnover.
And Phoenix scores again.
I guess Norm wants to let Dyson play through it.
LA down big in the fourth.
Dyson has it again, and he loses it again.
What is going on with him tonight?
And the Waves lose the first game of the playoffs
behind an abysmal showing from Dyson Gibbs,
2 for 14 with eight turnovers.
Terrible start to this postseason.
Everything is falling apart, and I have no vices to deal with it.
Should I start vaping?
- Wha...? - Oh, you want mine? It's bubblegum flavor.
Jackie, that is terrible for you. I wasn't serious.
Look, it's only one loss.
It's fine. You don't need to flip out yet.
Plus, I think I might've found an interested buyer.
- But I need to vet him. - No! There's no time to vet.
As long as he can offer Stephen more than Al, that's all that matters.
God.
Oh.
So, did you talk to Norm?
- What's wrong with Dyson? - Well, it's not good.
It turns out that Dyson took a pretty bad hit the other day.
Looks like it's a broken...
Oh, Jesus.
heart.
Why did you pause like that?
I thought Dyson was injured.
We're not gonna lose the playoffs because he's sad about a lady.
I know that, all right?
The players are on it.
- They're gonna lift him up. - Oh!
- Where's the vape? - What?
Isla? Oh my God. What are you doing?
No, what are you doing? Oh... Oh my God!
- Got it. - Oh my...
- Isla, no. You... Give me that. - Ew.
Hey, yo, Dyson. Hold up, man.
Don't worry about tonight, bro. We'll get 'em back game two.
Man, I don't even care. The news just came out about Zoé's movie.
Sick. Hoyte van Hoytema's shooting it.
Relationships with movie stars are famously short-lived, bro.
Like me and Holland Taylor.
- For real? - Yeah.
Man, you guys don't get it. I'm in love with this woman.
Bro, I know what love is. We're in that shit right now.
Like, there are times when Brielle and I are together
where neither of us are even looking at our phones.
So if that's what you had with Zoé, you gotta get her back.
How? What do I do?
- Make it known, bro. - Mm-hmm.
Like when Brielle caught me sending dick pics to fans, I flew her out to Vegas
and had the Bellagio Fountain spell out, "I'm real sorry."
We smashed in the bathroom at Guy Fieri's right after.
- Mm-hmm. Bam! - Ooh!
See what I mean, bro?
Now our bond is tighter than ever. Look at that.
Oh my gosh, you're pregnant?
It's a labradoodle we'll adopt. We'll name it Trielle.
Combination of our names.
- Travis and Brielle. - Yeah, it was either that or Bravis.
Oh, look at it.
It's so cute, baby.
- Mmm... - It's so cute.
Okay, I get it. Please, stop.
Goddamn.
Oh.
- Yo, Jackie, come on in. - I didn't know it was you in here.
I was just checking out the old office.
God, it's so dusty.
You know, Jackie, a lot of things will be changing here,
and I don't just mean for me.
How would you... like to be
the director of special operations?
Oh... Wow.
That sounds... special.
That dick of yours has pissed its way to the big leagues.
What do you say?
I think it's really nice, but can I think about it?
Okay. Not sure what there is to think about.
You know what?
You just let me know ASAP, all right?
Oh, and, uh... keep hydrated, all right?
Hydrated.
I've looked at the prospectus,
and I would love to invest a large amount of money with LA Waves.
Oh, that is amazing, Dimi.
Remind me what industry your family's in.
Yellowcake.
Oh, so baked goods.
Uh, uranium.
But... but it's not enriched, right?
Is intermediate step.
But you would be able to provide us
with all the financials and tax documents that our board would need
to know the money's coming from a legitimate source.
There'll be no paper trail.
Funds will be wired to LA Waves from Kolokov Weapons, LLC, Cayman Islands.
Okay, thank you for your interest and for coming in, Dimi.
- Yes. - I will escort you out.
Thank you.
That is fucking insane.
You told me not to vet him.
I think a small Google search can identify a war criminal.
Look, I hate to say it, but I don't think we can beat Al's offer.
I mean, no one is willing to give us that kind of money this fast.
Okay, you're right. If we can't beat him, we gotta join him.
Hmm?
I'm just gonna have to offer Al something Cam cannot.
Isla? No, I will not let you dishonor yourself like that.
- What? No, Ali, not that. - Oh.
We need to find out where Al Fleischman is right now.
I didn't sleep at all last night,
and none of my usual tricks worked.
2 a.m. ice cream, 3 a.m. lasagna, 4 a.m. cocktail hour.
- So you had dinner backwards? - Look, I thought a lot about it.
And Isla doesn't deserve to go down like this.
I think we should support her, no matter the cost.
Hold on, okay?
I know you're hopped up on no sleep and morning Negronis,
but there's no way Isla has the money to buy the majority vote.
But we can figure this out, you know?
I mean, not this, but what if we kidnap one of Bituin's sisters?
Her family would definitely pay, especially if we take the pretty one.
Look, I get it, okay?
Isla, she's been good,
but Cam was the president first, and he was also good,
so isn't good first better than good second?
That makes no sense. You never make no sense.
I'm just saying I support Cam. I have to, and that is that.
What is going on with you? Talk to me, Sandy.
You've never liked Cam. He's bullied you your whole life.
And sometimes people are mean to the ones that they love.
Like when he called me gay Urkel,
he was... he was helping me out of the closet. Really.
You're lying to me.
- I— - I can tell. I can smell it.
Cam embezzled $2 million from the team, and I helped cover it up.
Oh my God!
Shh... shh... shh... shh.
Why would he put that many rhinestones on something?
What?
No, not bedazzled. Embezzled.
- I... - Fraud. He committed fraud.
And technically, I'm complicit, so I can't go against Cam.
God, Sandy.
I know!
Two, three. Okay. And hip, two and three and four.
Ooh!
Hey, Tatiana, you're going too fast.
Al, it's the cha-cha-cha.
Yeah, well, my carbonara is coming up, up, up.
Hey, Tats, take five.
Isla.
- To what do I owe the pleasure? - Didn't know you ballroom danced.
Well, you know, I really want to win Dancing with the Stars.
Oh, you're on Dancing with the Stars.
No, but if and when they call, I want to be ready.
Let me get right to the point.
Um, Al, how would you like to be the majority owner of the Los Angeles Waves?
Hey, uh, Tats, get Isla a coconut water.
I think she's a little lightheaded. Are you lightheaded?
If I sell you my shares along with the ones you're already buying,
you will own over 50% outright.
Mm. And why would I want to do that? I already got a deal with Cam.
If you go with Cam,
you'll have to side with him every time you want something.
If you take my offer,
you have total control.
Okay, and what's in it for you?
I stay president.
Long-term deal.
Non-negotiable.
Ooh!
You're a snake, which is a compliment in the plumbing world.
So do we have a deal?
I'll get the paperwork started.
Congrats, partner.
Yo, you all right?
It's the playoffs. I'm fine.
Hey, I hope you're happy, Travis.
Zoé blocked me on everything, even Venmo.
No. What? Seriously?
Why you got a box full of dogs?
It was the grand gesture.
You and Brielle seemed so happy, and Zoé said she loves dogs,
so I thought I'd get her some.
Wait, wait, wait.
You bought a girl who's about to move halfway around the world a bunch of dogs?
What the hell were you thinking?
I don't know. I guess I just suck, all right.
Okay, I suck.
Hey, man. Hey, come back and get a hug.
Yo, what are we supposed to do with all these dogs?
They said we were down and out.
Kaput.
Dancing on our graves. Left us for—
- Who is "they"? - Cam.
Or maybe some other jerks. I don't know.
Point is, we beat them.
We frickin' destroyed them.
Yeah, but... but just to ask, I mean,
are you worried you're in business with someone you can't trust?
Al tossed Cam to the side first chance he got.
- He could do the same to you. - Nope. I negotiated a long-term contract.
Legally, Al can't get rid of me.
And what about your brothers?
With total control, Al could fire them.
I am trying to make the best out of a bad situation,
and they chose not to take sides.
Isn't staying in control what we wanted?
No, of course.
Look, and I am with you no matter what,
but, I mean, would you still want to be president
if it meant none of your brothers were with you?
This look brings you here. That pick's there.
Look off fast. Cut. Boom. There.
Down low and we're there.
so concession sales down almost 5% on Q4.
I think we can, um, you know, bolster that...
Hi. One sec.
That's for you.
So, bit of an issue. Norm isn't starting Dyson.
He said he's the worst player he's seen since Eddie.
Eddie Montgomery, the player from the '90s?
Nope. Eddie the dog.
He coached a charity game with the cast of Frasier.
Oh, damn it.
Also, Al keeps calling. He wants to close the deal.
Well, he can keep calling. I'm not screwing over my brothers.
Wait, what?
Hey.
Heard you're having girl trouble.
I don't feel like talking.
Dyson, come on.
Please.
Look, I know it sucks,
but in a year from now, you won't even be thinking about her.
Her billboards will be all over Los Angeles,
and her press clips are going to inundate your socials.
Oh, man.
No, not the point.
Dyson,
you and I,
we are linked.
We started this together,
and this might be our last chance to win a ring together.
How about next season? We can run it back.
Um...
I might not be here next season,
but it doesn't matter because you've worked your ass off.
Wait, what? What are you talking about?
I had a chance to get everything I wanted,
but that would've meant sacrificing everyone I loved,
and I could not live with that regret, and Dyson, I do not want you to regret
not giving everything you got to win a title.
I wouldn't have come this far if it weren't for you.
I can't let you go out like this.
We are winning this season.
Thank you, Dyson.
And Zoé who, right?
Oh my gosh. Why would you say her name?
My bad.
It's gonna be okay.
Hey, hey. Sorry we haven't had the time to talk,
but it's been a bit crazy.
Heard Cam's offering you a big promotion.
What?
Cam.
- Oh, our Cam! - Jackie, it's okay.
Just wanted to say you should take it.
You've more than earned it. I'm really proud of you.
Well, what are you gonna do?
I'll be fine.
Thank you.
Some steak, please?
Oh, careful.
Very juicy.
Game two tonight. LA hosts Phoenix.
The Waves gotta get back on track, John.
Gibbs with the early jumper.
It's good. That's a good sign.
LA looking focused tonight.
Winfield has it top of the key, dribbles right.
It's good!
LA is cruising here in the fourth.
Winfield in charge of the offense, dribbles right.
Alley-oop
Slam dunk!
Elevator! Elevator!
Gibbs again.
Drives baseline and he flushes it.
LA demolishes Phoenix to even the series.
Now this is the Waves team we saw all season.
Dyson Gibbs goes for 40.
Dare I say the Waves have found their mojo.
- Packing up? - Yeah.
Can't wait to get out of this janitor closet.
I am gonna miss the fumes though.
Here's my urine for your drug test.
Look at that.
Oh, it's hot.
Just to be clear, I'm not gonna get in trouble for any of this, right?
Oh, come on. I've been using your piss for a month now. Nobody's caught on.
Keep your mouth shut. We'll be good.
So does this mean what I think it means?
I've thought about your offer, and I'm really excited to accept.
All right. Come on, bring it in.
Come on, get over here. Hustle. Come on. There we go.
My guy.
We're a team now.
I got you, Cam.
Hey.
Al's here.
- What? - Yeah.
He keeps inviting me to Laguna Beach and saying
there's no way my top'll stay on on the back of a Sea-Doo.
- Oh, hey. Isla. - Al.
What's with the wait?
I mean, are we doing the deal or what?
Because believe it or not, I got a lot going on.
I'm in the middle of hiding my assets from my ex-wife.
Mmm. I can't sell you my shares, Al.
What?
You and Cam can do your worst.
Take control of the team, fire me, but I'm not screwing over my family.
No.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Isla, you don't want to do this.
I am a very... very powerful man.
You'll never remodel a bathroom in this town again.
Jeez.
Well, at least you'll have your morals when we're both unemployed.
Look, whatever we do after this, we're doing it together.
I'd work at Sephora in a second with you, bitch.
Hey, we got to talk to you.
We have a plan to keep you in charge.
You're gonna want to hear this.
