3. FKA Millennial

Complete story — includes the ending

Charles and Quinn meet again in private, with Quinn pitching a new book called The F Word (for "failure"). Quinn pitches the idea to Kelsey, Liza, and the team, after which Charles requests the group's decision by the end of the day. Meanwhile, Redmond has a client, Australian surfing-legend Kai Manning, who is interested in publishing a book, with the team eventually giving their support. However, Redmond expresses concern when Kelsey tells him the Millennial imprint no longer exists, meaning the book would be published only under the "stodgy" Empirical label. Josh gets a visit from KT, a pop star's agent, warning him that her client will be asking for face tattoos and advising him to stall the star because the tattoos would nix an upcoming cosmetics deal. Josh is successful in getting the star to come back later for a breast tattoo, instead. The Empirical team attends a publicity party at the posh apartment building owned by Clare's new boyfriend, Rob. Kelsey learns that Zane has been named publisher for a competitor, right after she loses her own publisher title due to the Millennial imprint's demise. Liza argues with Charles after learning he approved Quinn's book without the team's input. After Kai asks Liza to be his editor, the two leave the party and have beers together at a local establishment. Josh is visited again by KT, who tells him her singer no longer wants tattoos, but that she is interested in getting one herself.
