Hailey is sitting out by the pool of her house with Bea, who just came from shooting a Tommy Hilfiger campaign with Kaia Gerber on the Malibu Pier. Bea’s agreed to be in Hailey’s Dress for Success charity fashion show.

“I can’t thank you enough for modeling,” Hailey says. “I know you have legit work so it means the world. Especially since I can’t depend on Greta. She’s been so self-destructive lately. It’ll be a miracle if she manages to walk down the runway in a straight line.”

“Oh my God,” Bea laughs, “selfiestickgate will not die.”

On the upcoming season, Greta and Bea will fight over Hailey’s friendship. Greta is the old friend and Bea is the new friend and they compete to see who knows Hailey the best and who is closest to her. Hailey just sits back and watches them duke it out, every once in a while saying things like “I don’t like her more than you, I swear. Can’t we all just be friends?” while secretly lapping it up.

Hailey and Greta have been friends forever. It’s, like, social media platforms suggest friends, right? And maybe the universe does, too. Greta and Hailey come from similar backgrounds, both precocious Beverly Hills princesses wearing Kate Spade for kids. Their nannies liked to gossip with each other at the playground, so they followed each other. And they’ve never questioned it because that’s the way it’s always been.

Bea became Instafamous over the controversy surrounding her paternity, and Hailey collected her like a Judith Leiber.

“How’s Brandon doing since the fight?” Hailey asks. “I’ve never seen Joel lose it like that before…”

“He has a black eye but the swelling’s gone down. I think Brandon’s depressed,” Bea says. “His parents get back from Switzerland tomorrow. I know he’s worried about his mom.”

The teen cast tries to keep out of their parents’ drama on the show. They have enough of their own. Brandon hasn’t said anything to Hailey about Whitney accusing Morgan of faking cancer. Hailey goes way back with Brandon and the Cadogans. She lost her virginity to Brandon’s older brother, Conrad. Unofficially. The virginity storyline is, of course, a huge arc on the first season of Platinum Triangle. Hailey and Patrick were filmed as a part of a ceremony at Hillsborough Church with fathers giving their daughters purity rings and the daughters taking a vow of chastity. Never mind the fact that Patrick is Jewish. Hillsborough is trendy and everyone wants to be spotted there.

“I still haven’t heard back from Valeria.” Hailey checks her phone. “I have no idea if she’s modeling. Why do I feel like I’m always chasing that girl?”

“She’s been so secretive all summer,” Bea says.

“It’s because the Leons don’t have a storyline and everyone knows it,” Hailey says. “Gloria refuses to air her dirty laundry. She’s determined to pretend like there’s no trouble in paradise, but have you seen the latest?” She shows Bea the TMZ article on her phone about Luis getting kicked out of the Hard Rock Cafe. “I’d hate to have a dad like hers,” Hailey says.

They hear voices and footsteps coming from around the side of the house. Hailey goes cold when she sees that it’s Lily—and that Joel is with her. She can tell Bea is looking at her to see how she’ll react.

“Hey, guys!” Lily waves over at them. She’s still dressed in her lifeguard uniform. “What’s up?”

“Just helping Hailey with the Dress for Success show,” Bea says. “What are you two up to?” The good thing about Bea, aside from her 11 million followers and iconic lineage, is the way she loves to stir the pot.

“Bumped into Lily on the beach today,” Joel says. “So I gave her a ride home.”

Hailey doesn’t react but inside she’s screaming. Did they spend all day together? And didn’t Lily’s shift end a couple hours ago?

“Will you volunteer for the fashion show, Joel?” Hailey asks, keeping her voice light. She’s not even looking over at Lily. “I’m short male models and we were donated the cutest pair of Vilebrequin swim shorts with a sardine print.”

“It’s for a good cause,” Bea adds.

“Sure.” Joel shrugs. “Count me in.”
