About The Show
Manhattan real estate is a realtor's market. No one ever gets what they want so
they're always looking for something better, a concept that applies equally well
to relationships.
Ava, Lola and Chloe have taken the cutthroat out of their real estate business
by working as a team with the mantra "What Would Oprah do?" Chloe's single and
insecure, Ava's a fabulous 40 with a brand new boy toy husband and Sophia's a
Latina lovely who recently discovered her husband is gay. All three worked hard
to be successful, but today, their world expanded when naïve socialite Emerson
walked though the door. They were supposed to sell her and her fiancé a home,
but instead broke up her engagement and got a new partner. She brings to the
table her phone book of friends waiting to be housed. Together these four
friends will turn over properties while turning heads.
In the tradition of Designing Women, Golden Girls and Sex & The
City comes an uninhibited comedy with real career women trying to have real
relationships. One of the Emmy award-winning producers of the mega-hit
Frasier reveals just how exciting the world of New York real estate can be.

Ava and Chloe discover -- for the first time -- that they both had a fling

To help cheer up a grief-stricken Lola as she gets over

apartment. They commiserate about what's missing in their lives and, after
drowning their sorrows, are horrified the next morning to learn that each of

her highly-critical, overbearing mother (Christine Estabrook), who pays an
unexpected visit

ex-husband on the website; and Emerson dresses up as Audrey Hepburn to meet

amusement turns to agony when the website makes her their featured profile.
- 28 Oct 05 Sex, Lies & Chubby Chasers
Through mutual encouragement, the women decide it’s time to take some
risks that they wouldn’t ordinarily take. When Ava’s much-younger husband
gets an acting job playing a teenager, she decides it’s time to be honest
with him about her real age. Chloe starts dating a man who is trying to
fatten her up, but to her delight she finds it quite liberating. Meanwhile
Lola begins therapy sessions with Sellers to find out why she’s attracted to
gay men, and Emerson must convince her wealthy parents to let her work at
the real estate office.
- 4 Nov 05 Dating Up, Dating Down
When Charlie informs everyone that he has invested in a hot nightclub so
that he can date super models, they analyze the notion of “dating up” or
“dating down,” and how the ideal situation lies balanced somewhere
in-between. At the club, a young woman flirts with Ava’s husband and she
becomes concerned that his budding acting career may change the balanced
dynamic in their marriage; Chloe and Emerson think they’re “dating up,” but
are in for a surprise; Sellers tries to find balance by dating Danushka
(Adrianne Curry), a gorgeous model with very low self-esteem; and Lola
learns that “dating up” is not all about money.
- 11 Nov 05 Waiting For Oprah
To celebrate a big real estate sale, Ava surprises the ladies with a
dream come true: four hard-to-get tickets to see Oprah Winfrey -- the woman
they refer to as “kind of like our God” -- at a television taping in
Chicago. Because it’s their first time traveling together, problems arise
and friendships and teamwork spirit get compromised. Matters turn worse when
one of the priceless tickets goes missing and they’re willing to do whatever
it takes to get another one. But things start to look up when they have a
chance encounter with Oprah’s best friend, Gayle King. Back at the office,
Sellers and Charlie, who don’t understand why their officemates are so
smitten with all things Oprah, learn firsthand about her effect on viewers.
- 15 Nov 05 Return of the Ring
A chapter in a book about relationships written by Charlie’s ex-wife
prompts Emerson to try and return her $50,000 engagement ring to her ex-fiance,
Graham (Greg Cromer). But she can’t bring herself to face him for fear of
how she might feel. The others volunteer to return the ring -- but Graham’s
captivating and romantic ways to woo Emerson back prevents them from doing
so. Meanwhile, in the spirit of returning things that don’t belong to them,
Ava decides to return her ex-boss’ Rolodex to him, but when she tries to, he
thinks she’s trying to flirt with him.
- 18 Nov 05 When Chloe Met Marco
When a sale falls through, the ladies find comfort in cleaning out their
purses and, in the process, discover all sorts of things. Emerson finds the
receipt for her never-worn wedding dress but, because of the store’s
no-refund policy, is reluctant to ask for her money back. So Lola insists on
accompanying her to the store to teach her some negotiating skills -- a
must-have in the real estate business. Also, Ava finds a pile of receipts,
bringing to light her shopping addiction, and Chloe recovers a phone number
from a man she forgot she met -- so she decides to look him up.
- 25 Nov 05 Whatever Lola Wants
To prove to the gorgeous Lola that people treat her special because of
her looks and not just because she’s a nice person, Chloe challenges her to
make herself plain and homely to see if people are indeed affected by her
appearance. Meanwhile, Ava is convinced that the “fox factor” works, and is
so displeased with her new driver’s license picture that she enlists
Emerson, who went to photography camp as a youngster, to head to the DMV to
take a better photograph.
- 9 Dec 05 It's a Wonderful Christmas Carol on 34th Street
Chloe, who lacks the holiday spirit, ends up in a cab accident while
rushing to buy a last-minute gift for Ava’s toy giveaway. While in a state
of limbo, Chloe is escorted on a journey by the three Ghosts of Christmas:
Emerson, Lola and Ava -- from her past, present and future -- and they show
her how her way of thinking will affect her and those she cares about.
- 16 Dec 05 Killer Bodies
When it appears that Lola’s sexy looks have caused a mysterious attack
in her average-looking boyfriend, Fletcher (Kevin Farley), he is rushed to

to flirt with a cute doctor result in an unexpected medical procedure.
Meanwhile Ava comforts a mother-to-be who asks her to be her birth coach.
- 23 Dec 05 GRRR
Ava wonders if her happy marriage is in trouble and feels a little
guilty when sparks fly between her and a client named Alec (Harry Hamlin)
who, like her, has a much younger partner. Meanwhile Chloe, who wants a guy
who’s more of a tiger than a pussycat, thinks her wish has come true when
she meets a strong but silent bodyguard; Lola wonders if her new boyfriend
will be able to look past their extremely different cultures; and Sellers
has his own reasons for not wanting to set Emerson up with his friend.
- 30 Dec 05 El Dia de Compasion
Lola invites everyone over to her home to celebrate her country’s
traditional holiday, El Día de Compasión – The Day of Forgiveness -- where
they can forgive each other for the little slights and irritations made over
the past year. But when their character flaws – such as being sarcastic,
hot-tempered, nosey or chauvinistic -- are brought to light, they all strive
to prove they’re not that way.
