Jordan! Jordan! Jordan! Jordan!

Jordan! Jordan! Jordan! Jordan! Jordan!

Yeah, of course it's frustrating.

You've been planning

this for what, months?

Right.

Okay, did anyone take a statement?

Keys?

- Was there any video footage at all?

- Yeah, please.

I think it's a little late to

get your deposit back, but...

Honestly, that's not even

what really matters.

Well, I don't know, Jim.

Maybe you could ask the guy.

- So...

- Sounds about right, doesn't it?

Yeah, it pulls a lot of weight.

- I'm gonna try to pull an extra shift.

- Look, I get it.

Do we have a physical

description of this guy?

- So...

- Yeah.

I won't be home for dinner and...

I would tell 'em...

I would tell 'em you're walking.

The starter's acting up again, so I might

have to borrow your car next week.

That's what we got.

It depends on when I can get it fixed.

What... Did you say something, sweetie?

I wrote it down.

Okay, I got to go. Love you.

- Bye.

- Yeah, well, I mean...

Listen, call me. I'm...

I'm walking out the door right now.

We're sending you

to Jordan's show in Vegas.

This show is sold out.

Sold out in minutes.

This is an all-access backstage pass.

Meet Jordan, hang out with him

before the show,

watch from the VIP area.

We have Jordan Jaye on the line right now.

Jordan Jaye!

Hey! How's it going, Turbo?

I know you don't have a lot of time,

you're about to go onstage in LA.

But you're on your first world tour

for your latest album.

Yeah, we're just getting started.

We got three shows in Vegas, and then we

head to New York, and Europe. It's crazy.

You're 17! I mean, this has got to be

the ride of your life, right?

I mean, your show sold out in seconds,

you got three number one hits, and well,

we've all seen your girlfriend.

Well...

I mean, hey, don't get me wrong,

Nikki Brown is a little too young for me.

Shout-out to Tyga, by the way.

But look, you want to trade places?

Maybe.

Sign me up.

I mean, we're having a great time.

It's madness, honestly.

Well, keep it going.

You're crushing it right now.

We'll see you in Vegas, have a great show.

Thanks, dude.

Oh, my God. What?

Hey, Jessica.

What do you want?

What do you think I want?

You ordered pizzas.

Who ordered pizzas?

Over here!

You're an idiot. Fine. Hold on.

There you go.

Okay, all you, sweetheart.

Buy yourself something cute.

Fix those nails, I don't know.

What?

Nothing. Nothing.

Please. I know that look. Don't judge me.

I didn't say anything.

You're just jealous.

Of what?

Oh, my gosh.

That I have this awesome life,

and I look super sick in this dress,

and you don't have any of those things.

Okay, if that's what you call it...

You know, I would invite you

in to come hang,

but you look super busy

with your adorable little pizza route.

Like I would have come anyway.

You smell like pizza.

Okay, whatever.

Like a deep dish, meat lover's pizza.

Okay. Here's your pizzas.

Have a great night. Thanks for the tip.

You smell like pizza.

- Thank you.

- Bye.

Bye.

Whatever!

...last five minutes of the show.

Are you ready?

Yeah.

Anyway,

Alan, I just need you to call them.

I need you to call them and tell them...

Yes, overnights as well as ticket sales.

Alan, what did I tell you?

Okay. Jordan, don't slouch.

We have a full day of press tomorrow

before the show.

They've added dates in Europe as well.

We've also got some new tour merch we need

your approval on as soon as possible.

We should have it for you by tomorrow.

Just give it to me.

We've also had some great PR offers.

A book publisher wants to do a biography,

there's a few movie offers for cameos,

and best of all, they want you to co-host

the Teen Awards.

I like that idea.

That would be some great exposure.

Find a way to work that

into the schedule. Yeah.

Co-host with who?

They were thinking Nikki.

The fans love to see

the two of you together, sweetheart.

We're not together though anymore, Mom.

Well, maybe you guys

could reunite at the awards?

Now that would be huge.

No. I am never dating her again.

In fact, can you tell her management

to make her stop texting me?

Is that it?

We need you to finalize a couple more

songs for the new album

before London, so...

All good.

Have you listened

to those samples yet, Jordan?

- Kind of.

- Jordan!

You know how important this is.

If we don't start now, we have to

delay recording by six months.

I hate the new tracks.

What's wrong with them?

They all sound the same.

Well, what does it really matter?

It's what they want.

It... We've done the market research.

Just pick some,

and we will handle the rest.

What?

Nothing.

Sweetheart, we're just trying to

make it easy for you.

No, I know. Just...

Listen, I'll look at them again.

I promise. Just...

Look, I'm really tired right now.

I'm just... I'm just gonna go lay down.

Well, take your makeup off

before you go to sleep.

I don't want you looking

worn out tomorrow.

I know, I know.

- I love you.

- Love you, too.

Jay! Where have you been, man?

You are missing an epic match.

Dude, we were outnumbered.

Yeah, it was pretty much a massacre.

You're telling me the three of you

couldn't even hold your own?

They were, like, really good.

Don't worry, we'll get 'em next weekend.

I got plans with my girl next weekend.

- Yeah, right.

- Oh, come on.

What, dude? Come on.

This is real, okay? Whatever you have
