Jade paces the floor.

"Oh my god, Becks gonna kill me", Jade says.

"He's not gonna kill you, it was a honest mistake", Tyler says.

"You don't understand, this investor was gonna keep the lights on here, now that he's gone I'm not sure what we're gonna do", Jade replies.

"Well then why don't you just find another investor?", Tyler says.

"It's not that simple, that investor was gonna give us 25 million dollars to partner with his company as a form of production for his movie", Jade says.

"$25 million dollars", Tyler asks his eyes widening.

"Yes", Jade says.

"This company isn't even worth $25 million", Tyler says.

"Tyler do you want a job tomorrow morning?", Jade asks.

"Of course", Tyler says.

"Then you better figure out a way for me to get this company some money", Jade says.

"Okay, let me think", Tyler says pacing.

He stops and faces Jade then shakes his head no and continues pacing. Jade rolls her eyes. He looks at Jade again, Jades eyes light up but he shakes his head no again and keeps pacing. As he is about to do it once more Jade grabs a pair of scissors off the the desk and points it at him.

"Tyler if you don't tell me one of those ideas in the next 10 seconds, I will shove these scissors so far down your throat that you will only be able to taste metal for the rest of your life", Jade says.

"If only attitude paid the bills", Tyler says.

"I'm sorry, I'm just hopeless, I don't know what I can do", Jade says.

Tyler looks down then perks up quickly.

"I think I might have a solution, I have this cousin who has this millionaire best friend who he's always doing favors for, it might be time he paid a favor back", Tyler says.

"Ok, where does he live?", Jade asks.

"Seattle", Tyler says.

"Well looks like I'm heading to Seattle", Jade says.

Over across town, Robbie and Cat sit in the courtroom waiting for their hearing. Suddenly Haley Ferguson walks in carrying a briefcase.

"Let's go, I got a call from the Judge saying  we're next", Haley says.

Robbie and Cat get up and head to the courtroom. As soon as they get the door, the previous party leaves the courtroom. The judge bangs the gavel on the podium.

"Calling the party for Chelsea Shaw and Robert Shapiro", the judge says.

Already in the room, Chelsea walks up to her chair with crutches. She turns around and winks at Robbie and Cat. Cat rolls her eyes. She and Robbie walk to their chairs on the opposite side. Haley joins them.

After opening remarks, the judge gives the floor to Chelsea's lawyer. Suddenly a blonde woman walks up to the center of the floor. She looks at Robbie and Cat and waves.

"Is that?", Robbie asks.

"Tara?", Haley says, "Yes that's her".

"How ironic is it that the person representing Chelsea is your best friend", Cat says.

"Ex Best Friend and It's extremely ironic, almost too ironic, looks like Chelsea plays to win, but luckily I'm the best there is", Haley says.

"And since we know Tara maybe she'll go easy on us", Cat says.
