Series Description:
This drama follows two best friends from Brooklyn who decide to move to beautiful South Beach, Florida to search for better opportunities. Vincent (Chris J. Johnson) wants to meet beautiful women and get ahead in any way that he can.
Matt (Marcus Coloma) wants to earn enough money to go back to college but has other reasons as well. Making their lives even more interesting are Matt’s former girlfriend Ari Casta (Odette Yustman), Ari’s boyfriend and nightclub manager Alex Bauer (Lee Thompson Young), hotel owner and Alex’s mother Elizabeth Bauer (Vanessa L. Williams), and Cuban-American gangster Robert Fuentes (Giancarlo Esposito).
Episode Eight – It Looked Like Somebody’s Nightmare
Alex believes that Elizabeth is trying to undermine his management of Ari’s modeling when Elizabeth asks her daughter and Brianna to model for her new Soleil clothing line.
Meanwhile, Vincent asks Matt to help him get a job at Soleil when Fuentes’ behavior starts to cross the line. Unfortunately, Vincent’s last errand for Fuentes puts him in a dangerous situation with Rivera.
Maggie (Meghan Ory) tells Matt about her past relationship with Alex — the two were once good friends until their mutual friend Nick died by falling out of a boat they were all in.
First aired: February 22, 2006
There’s been no news of any plans to revive the series or characters.
