Time is against Hattie as she dashes through Hollywood on various assignments from Ida B while Nia struggles in an audition.

An earthquake shakes up the girls' relationships; Marie becomes wary of Chuck when a night watching porn together goes awry; Hattie grows more fond of Ida when she's tasked with sorting her old manuscripts.

Hattie learns a lesson in balancing work and family; work leads Nia to church to clean up Zach's mess, and persuade star basketball player, Quintrell, to sign with the studio.
