[burlesque club]

[alisha and chuck are walking around the club]

alisha: you want your dad to invest in a strip joint? how midtown.

chuck: a burlesque club-- a respectable place where people can be transported to another time, where they can feel free to let loose. no judgment. pure escape. what happens at victrola stays at victrola.

alisha: well, it does have franchise potential. chuck bass, i do believe all your years of underage boozing truly, i am proud.

chuck: and you are my toughest critic. well, second toughest.

alisha: so do you think your father will go for it? 

chuck: it is exactly the kind of innovative thinking upon which the bass empire was built. it is the perfect thing. i've been waiting for this. we are so late. gotta pitch it to bart. victory party here tomorrow.

alisha: i wouldn't miss it.

chuck: i'll send a car.

alisha: don't be nervous. he's gonna love it.

[alisha then kisses chuck and leaves]



[later]

[alisha, bart and alisha's dad come to the burlesque club and see chuck about to kiss another woman]

alisha: are you kidding me

chuck: dad....alisha..Mr. anderson i, uh, ahem. i didn't think you'd make it...and i didn't expect you to bring guests...

alisha: bart was so impressed with wanting to invest in this place i vouched for you and told my dad...who wanted to see your club

william: clearly..we were mistaken...

bart: and you want me to pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into an excuse for you to be around booze and women? 

chuck: no. no, did you read the proposal? it shows a much bigger picture.

bart: i came down here because i saw the effort you made. you want to impress me with your commitment to something? try getting a few a's in school or maybe a part-time job.

william: agreed...come alisha...we may need to discuss other options as well

[alisha then looks at chuck upset as she leaves with bart and her dad]


[later]

[alisha is at home and hears a knock at the door and answers it and its chuck who is clearly drunk]

alisha: are you drunk right now

chuck: why didn't you back me up...you were all for my club this morning..what changed

alisha: maybe it had something to do with the fact you were drapped over some woman...

chuck: ah..c'mon...she meant nothing alisha...i love you

alisha: [scoffing] right...well if you truly loved me...you wouldn't have done it in the first place...i'm embarressed to be quite frank...i mean...i vouch for you..bring my father down...to see your club...and suprise suprise...its just an excuse for you to be around women..and cheat...i thought we were going to do things differently...i mean that is what you said...you wanted us to work..

chuck: i do...i wasn't going to do anything...

alisha: and how do i know that...i think we should take a break...[she then gives back his ring]

chuck: alisha....

alisha: clearly..you don't know what you want...and i want to have a husband that loves me with his whole heart and be faithful...clearly...you can't do that...so...now...you can have that time to do that...so ...please leave chuck..

[alisha then leaves as chuck looks heartbroken]




[bar]

[alisha is in a bar in brooklyn and wyatt comes in]

wyatt: didn't think i'd see you here

alisha: thought i would have less of a chance running into anyone i knew here..clearly i was wrong

[alisha then wipes her tears]

wyatt: you ok

alisha: i don't wanna talk about it

wyatt: buy you a drink

[alisha then nods and the two get their drinks and clink glasses]



[chuck's limo]

chuck: you were amazing up there.


[blair then smiles and moves closer towards chuck who looks like he may lean in]

blair: what about alisha

chuck: on a break...

[the two then kiss and start to have sex as wyatt takes alisha to his place and lets her lie down on his bed as she had two much too drink and he smiles at her while he sleeps on the floor letting her take his bed]
