The bond between women is built on shopping sprees and shared secrets. After they spent a night chatting, their relationship skyrocketed.

The next morning, Quintessa woke up with bags under her eyes and headed to the set, while Mrs. York knocked on Tyrone's door, "Son, for your sake, I've even played the villain. You better step up!" On set, Quintessa ran into Jonathan and gave him an odd look.
