00:00:00My name is Claire Duvall.
00:00:02My fiancé betrayed me with the woman who I thought was a friend.
00:00:06Dylan, where are you?
00:00:08Ava really needs me.
00:00:10I'm ready to move forward.
00:00:13Mr. Cross, you need a wife and I need revenge.
00:00:17We should get married.
00:00:19The days of pretending to be a model, they're over, Claire.
00:00:23You've lost everything.
00:00:26And you just don't know it yet.
00:00:28You're not a nobody.
00:00:30Nobody took their eyes off of you.
00:00:32You don't have to say that just because we're married.
00:00:36Claire cannot succeed.
00:00:38Perfect.
00:00:40Maxwell will pay for this.
00:00:42He retouches my wife.
00:00:44Since Christian came into my life, I think my luck has finally changed.
00:00:49So, who will be the 23rd winner of the Top Model Competition?
00:01:00Claire Bear, my love for you, it transcends words.
00:01:11You're my forever.
00:01:14Will you marry me?
00:01:17Yes.
00:01:25Okay, wait, you guys look so good.
00:01:27I need a photo.
00:01:28One, two, three.
00:01:31Lucky bitch.
00:01:32To Claire!
00:01:33And Dylan!
00:01:36Drink more, baby.
00:01:44So, you proposed to that bitch, huh?
00:01:48You're so fucking sexy.
00:01:50I want you now, Dylan.
00:01:53Hey, hey, hey.
00:01:54What are you doing?
00:01:55She's right there.
00:01:56Don't worry about her.
00:01:58I slipped her a little something.
00:01:59She won't know.
00:02:20You've lost everything.
00:02:22And you just don't know it yet.
00:02:27I'm pregnant with Dylan's child.
00:02:30He won't show up tomorrow.
00:02:32Rise and shine.
00:02:36Go away.
00:02:37No can do.
00:02:38What happened here after I left?
00:02:41So, I had the most awful dream last night.
00:02:43No more wedding jitters.
00:02:44You can't be late to your big date.
00:02:46That's bad luck.
00:02:47Speaking of luck, I've got you something new.
00:02:50It's beautiful.
00:02:51Thank you.
00:02:52I hope you didn't spend too much.
00:02:53Oh, never do.
00:02:54L.E. Express, baby.
00:02:55Things you love don't need to break the bank.
00:02:57Come on.
00:02:58You're getting married!
00:02:59Let's go.
00:03:04Is it really a dream?
00:03:08Dylan, where are you?
00:03:10Hey, hey, I'm at the hospital.
00:03:12What?
00:03:13I'm at the hospital.
00:03:14What?
00:03:15I'm at the hospital.
00:03:16What?
00:03:17I'm at the hospital.
00:03:18What?
00:03:19I'm at the hospital.
00:03:20Are you okay?
00:03:21What happened?
00:03:22No, I'm fine.
00:03:23It's Ava.
00:03:24She fainted.
00:03:26Yeah, the doctors are running tests.
00:03:28I'm with her now.
00:03:29So, I'm not going to be able to marry you today.
00:03:33He won't show up tomorrow.
00:03:35Just wait.
00:03:39He's mine.
00:03:44I'm with her now.
00:03:45So, I'm not going to be able to marry you today.
00:03:48No, I'm sorry.
00:03:49I wanted to be there, but Ava...
00:03:51Ava really needs me.
00:03:53Come on, Claire Bear.
00:03:54You know I love you.
00:03:56Hey, I gotta go.
00:04:05Get off.
00:04:06I can't get enough of you.
00:04:14It wasn't a dream.
00:04:18It's real.
00:04:22It's all real.
00:04:36Christian, your fiancee refuses to sign the prenup and now she won't answer her phone.
00:04:40She stalled until the wedding day.
00:04:43This is blackmail.
00:04:44Cut her loose.
00:04:46That's Christian Cross.
00:04:48The CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment.
00:04:53Christian, your father...
00:04:54He doesn't care who I marry as long as it gets done today.
00:04:57Find me another girl.
00:04:59I've got an hour.
00:05:01I must be crazy to even consider this.
00:05:04Mr. Cross?
00:05:15I have a proposition for you.
00:05:26My name is Claire Duval.
00:05:28My fiancee betrayed me with a woman who I thought was a friend.
00:05:32Okay.
00:05:33How is it I can help you, Ms. Duval?
00:05:36Actually, it's how we can help each other.
00:05:39You need a wife and I need revenge.
00:05:42We should get married.
00:05:46Gavin?
00:05:47Already on it.
00:05:48Claire Duval, 25.
00:05:50No criminal record.
00:05:51Model with a news talent agency and...
00:05:53I'm married.
00:05:59Deal.
00:06:05Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Cross.
00:06:15So, thank you for doing this.
00:06:18If it's all the same to you,
00:06:20I'd like to keep this...
00:06:22arrangement a secret for now.
00:06:25I need my fiancee, ex-fiancee,
00:06:28to find out about us in the right way
00:06:31at just the right moment.
00:06:33I'll give you six months to plot an exact plan.
00:06:36I'll give you a week.
00:06:38I'll give you a month.
00:06:40I'll give you a year.
00:06:43I'll give you six months to plot an exact year of revenge.
00:06:46After that, our marriage announcement
00:06:48will be released to the press.
00:06:50Fair enough.
00:06:51One more thing.
00:06:53I need this marriage to appear as real as possible.
00:06:56That means living under the same roof.
00:06:59Oh.
00:07:00I have a very loyal, discreet staff
00:07:02that will keep our secret a secret.
00:07:05Every need will be met.
00:07:07I can live with that.
00:07:09Gavin will be in touch.
00:07:13I miss Duval.
00:07:15She's, um, she's something.
00:07:17Don't you mean Mrs. Cross?
00:07:19Right.
00:07:20I just mean...
00:07:22You didn't even mention the prenup.
00:07:24Am I missing something?
00:07:25More than you can fathom.
00:07:27I want you to keep a close eye on my wife.
00:07:30Consider it done, boss.
00:07:43Oh.
00:07:47Okay, she's walking in right now.
00:07:49I gotta go.
00:07:51Hey.
00:07:52Hey, thank God you're here.
00:07:54Ava was supposed to walk into the tour show later today.
00:07:56I need you to pretend to be her.
00:08:00You promised me last time
00:08:01I wouldn't have to do that again, Dylan.
00:08:03My company cannot afford to lose this commission.
00:08:06If you love me, you'll do this.
00:08:13I guess you leave me with no choice.
00:08:15I'll do it.
00:08:19I'm sorry everything got so screwed up yesterday.
00:08:21We'll get married soon.
00:08:24I promise.
00:08:27You don't know just how sorry you're gonna be.
00:08:31Welcome to the Vincent Latour Jewelry Showcase
00:08:34with fashion outfits provided by AliExpress.
00:08:43I'm going to be sick.
00:08:44What a two-timing bastard.
00:08:46Ava, that bastard.
00:08:47Bitch.
00:08:48I know.
00:08:49Guard this with your life.
00:08:51Sad as it is.
00:08:52Piss off, Felix, you insufferable parasite.
00:08:55At least Ava's set to win the top model competition.
00:08:57Third year in a row.
00:08:59Your girl's career imploded before it even took off.
00:09:01Uh, standing right here.
00:09:03Hurry, put on your mask.
00:09:05That's the designer.
00:09:06He can never know you're not Ava.
00:09:13Silly, what are you doing?
00:09:15I'm grabbing your model gifting and we're out of here.
00:09:17You're not covering up for Ava again.
00:09:19Especially after what she did to you.
00:09:21Actually, I have a plan.
00:09:23Hand me the bracelet.
00:09:26Modeling our next piece in the True Love collection
00:09:29is Ava Bennett.
00:09:33Behold the Juliet bracelet.
00:09:36Crafted with 36 exquisite emeralds
00:09:39Crafted with 36 exquisite emeralds
00:09:42and 15 flawless diamonds
00:09:44this 22 carat wonder
00:09:46graces the wrist of our radiant Miss Ava Bennett.
00:09:54Wow, incredible.
00:09:55Oh my gosh.
00:09:56What is that?
00:09:57I don't do anklets.
00:09:58I hate anklets.
00:10:04Ooh, I'm a genius.
00:10:06I love it.
00:10:07I want one.
00:10:09Oh, perhaps I could envision an anklet or two in my line.
00:10:15Your girl just came out.
00:10:17You should get in here.
00:10:19Well, hello.
00:10:21That is not Ava Bennett.
00:10:23She does not possess fabulous legs like that.
00:10:26What is she up to?
00:10:28Who's under the mask?
00:10:30Mask up!
00:10:32Mask up! Mask up! Mask up!
00:10:35Mask up! Mask up!
00:10:37Mask up! Mask up! Mask up! Mask up!
00:10:41Well, let's all see what we're hiding here.
00:10:52Where did you come from?
00:10:55That's Claire Duval.
00:10:57A nobody and now a thief.
00:11:00How dare you steal Ava Bennett's place.
00:11:02That's a lie.
00:11:08You don't want to do that.
00:11:10Mr. Cross, we were not expecting you to come this evening.
00:11:14Well, it's a good thing I did.
00:11:18You alright?
00:11:20I am now.
00:11:26Joan Fairchild, Glamour Magazine.
00:11:28Does this mark your first return to the runway?
00:11:31How do you know the CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment, Christian Cross?
00:11:34Is there bad blood between you and Ava B?
00:11:36No comment.
00:11:45Need a ride?
00:11:52Well, that was exciting.
00:11:55Sorry to get you mixed up in all this.
00:11:58That's what husbands are for.
00:12:00You want to tell me what's going on back there?
00:12:03I did it on purpose.
00:12:05Put the bracelet on my ankle.
00:12:07The biggest difference between Ava and I is our legs.
00:12:10I wanted to get caught.
00:12:15I wanted to get caught.
00:12:17And you did so spectacularly.
00:12:20I've never seen a model command the stage like you did up there.
00:12:23For a nobody.
00:12:25You're not a nobody.
00:12:27Nobody would take their eyes off of you.
00:12:29You don't have to say that just because we're married.
00:12:32I know my modeling track record has been pathetic at best.
00:12:37Why is that?
00:12:39From where I'm sitting, you have everything you need to be a top model.
00:12:42I don't know. Just unlucky or something.
00:12:45Or something.
00:12:52I think I'm going to be sick.
00:12:54I can't deal with more reporters tonight.
00:12:56We can go back to my place.
00:12:58It's your call.
00:13:03Let's do it.
00:13:05This night can't get any crazier.
00:13:08Oh, I've got to get this.
00:13:10Hey.
00:13:11It's not good.
00:13:13Ava just gave an interview.
00:13:16It's not looking good.
00:13:18Ava just gave an interview.
00:13:20She told the reporters that she did not ask you to step in.
00:13:23She said that nobody can model AliExpress and Beste La Tour like she does.
00:13:28And in fact, she said that you deliberately pushed her.
00:13:31And that's how she got hurt.
00:13:33Wow. So I've been bumped from stealing her spot to bodily assault?
00:13:37She's one step ahead of us.
00:13:40Not for long.
00:13:42Ava's going to want to revel in this victory, and she has a thing for bathrooms, so...
00:13:47Yuck!
00:13:48Gross.
00:13:50Zoe, here's what we're going to do.
00:13:54Mr. La Tour, I take it you saw the interview?
00:13:56Yes.
00:13:57Yes, I agree. Claire has her issues.
00:14:01No, no, no. Don't worry. I've taken care of it.
00:14:04Don't worry. I've taken care of it.
00:14:07My legal department is preparing a statement for the press where she'll take full responsibility.
00:14:13Ava will be in top shape, back on her feet for the shoot in Seattle.
00:14:17Yes, you have my word.
00:14:20So, what do you say?
00:14:22La Tour's in the bag.
00:14:24But Claire has to take the fall.
00:14:26Perfect.
00:14:28Let's celebrate.
00:14:39Are you going to join me?
00:14:41Oh, do you think that's a good idea?
00:14:44Because the doctor hasn't diagnosed your mysterious stomach issue yet.
00:14:48I have a different kind of ache, and I need you to take care of it.
00:14:58Is this wine?
00:15:00Is that a Jackson Pollock?
00:15:02It is. It's my favorite piece of his.
00:15:05It's incredible.
00:15:07You hungry?
00:15:09Starved.
00:15:19You're awfully quiet.
00:15:21More like speechless.
00:15:23The food was amazing. Where did you learn to cook like that?
00:15:26It's going to sound cliche, but growing up I spent more time in the kitchen with the staff than with my actual parents.
00:15:33I get it.
00:15:35Maybe you would.
00:15:37You're nothing like I thought you'd be.
00:15:39Dare I ask?
00:15:41Ruthless.
00:15:43Someone used to getting what they want at the expense of others.
00:15:46Someone who cares more about the bottom line than people.
00:15:52To most, I am that person.
00:15:55To the ones I hold dear.
00:15:57The ones I choose to let in.
00:16:14Make no mistake, Claire.
00:16:16If you do betray me,
00:16:18there'll be no forgiveness.
00:16:20Right back at you, Mr. Cross.
00:16:26Cheers.
00:16:34Morning.
00:16:36Sorry, I must have dozed off.
00:16:38Hold on. Let me get that.
00:16:40I don't think that's a good idea.
00:16:42No.
00:16:45Hello?
00:16:49Hello?
00:16:50Hey, where are you?
00:16:51I found a place to hide out. The reporters are hounding me.
00:16:53Claire Bear, I know this isn't ideal, but I need you in the office right now.
00:16:58Not ideal?
00:16:59Ava practically told the whole world I'm crazy.
00:17:02Just forgive her.
00:17:03Poor Ava.
00:17:04The medication she's on is making her paranoid.
00:17:07Will I see you soon?
00:17:09Sure, Dylan. I'll see you soon.
00:17:14What are you doing?
00:17:17Just in case you need anything.
00:17:19Daddy?
00:17:20I mean, I was going to put hubby, but since you're keeping me a secret...
00:17:24For now.
00:17:32What were you thinking, Claire?
00:17:34All you had to do was put on the damn bracelet and walk the runway show for Ava.
00:17:38Why would you draw that much attention to your legs?
00:17:41The bracelet was tailored to Ava's wrist, and she's bigger boned than me.
00:17:45It didn't fit. I had to improvise.
00:17:47That makes sense.
00:17:49You know, I knew Ava was dead set that you had some agenda against me,
00:17:53but I told her there's no way that you would sabotage me.
00:17:56We're getting married. You love me. You would never hurt me.
00:18:01You're right, Dylan. You know me so well.
00:18:03There's still a situation here, and if you don't do something to fix this,
00:18:07Muse will lose the Latour contract.
00:18:10This will cause a domino effect at the agency, and I won't be able to stop the cutbacks.
00:18:15Junior staff will lose their jobs. That includes Zoe.
00:18:18I can't have that.
00:18:21I can't have that.
00:18:23Well, there's not much time.
00:18:25My legal department has prepared a damage control script.
00:18:30Memorize it.
00:18:32You'll be meeting with the press in ten minutes.
00:18:35But this is a confession.
00:18:37I might not have a career after this.
00:18:39Well, let's be honest.
00:18:41Ava is our top billing model, and you, Claire, never really took off.
00:18:46Despite all the opportunities I created for you.
00:18:50I get it. I'm expendable.
00:18:54And one more thing.
00:18:56Stick to the script.
00:18:59No more improvising.
00:19:07Everything ready to go?
00:19:09My finger's on the trigger.
00:19:11I gotta go. Fire away.
00:19:13Okay.
00:19:15Please tell me you're not using a burner.
00:19:17Who the hell are you?
00:19:21I'm thinking too small, rookie.
00:19:33Members of the press.
00:19:35Thank you for coming.
00:19:36In regards to the events that occurred at the True Love fashion show,
00:19:39I deeply regret any harm I caused Mr. Vincent Latour and his revered brand.
00:19:44I take full responsibility for my actions.
00:19:47News talent agency had no knowledge of my intention to take Ava's place on the runway.
00:19:53These photos would suggest otherwise.
00:19:58Photos? What photos?
00:20:04Photos? What photos?
00:20:07This is evidence that Miss Duvall regularly pretends to be Miss Bennet over the last two years.
00:20:12Surely the president of the company must have known.
00:20:15Right.
00:20:16Claire, if you're being used as a scapegoat and you want to be rescued, just blink twice.
00:20:21Miss Duvall stands by her statement.
00:20:23She acted alone as the sole perpetrator.
00:20:26I, we, news talent as a company, had no idea of any and all prior incidences.
00:20:37We are done here.
00:20:50Nicely done, Gavin.
00:20:52Thank you, Christian.
00:20:54Lady's had it under control, I just gave a little boost.
00:20:58My wife's a force of nature.
00:21:00Yeah, she's had to be.
00:21:03Take a look at that.
00:21:09Here's what I got so far.
00:21:11Upon signing with news talent agency at 21, Claire Duvall was initially overseen by Miranda Maxwell,
00:21:17now Maxwell's older sister.
00:21:19Now the chairman of Maxwell Holdings.
00:21:21We've crossed paths.
00:21:22Exactly.
00:21:23Claire was hailed a rising star in the modeling world.
00:21:26Then inexplicably her stardom plummeted.
00:21:29Rumors began to spread that she was temperamental.
00:21:31She would show up late for shoots or not at all.
00:21:33There was even suspicion that drugs were involved.
00:21:36Offers dried up completely.
00:21:38They deliberately ruined her.
00:21:40It appears that way, but why?
00:21:44If you want to crush someone's dream, you don't just take it away, you kill it.
00:21:50By that time, Claire's access to senior management was non-existent.
00:21:55She was relegated to a junior manager by the name of Zoey Bauer.
00:21:59And that's when Dylan Maxwell started dating Claire.
00:22:02He broke her down just so he could scoop her up.
00:22:06Doesn't make sense.
00:22:08Claire Duvall is the total package.
00:22:10Why would a talent agency tank the career of a supermodel in the making?
00:22:14Because there was more money to be made elsewhere.
00:22:18Someone's pulling Dylan Maxwell's strings.
00:22:21We have to find the puppet master.
00:22:29I'm sorry.
00:22:31I'm sorry.
00:22:33I'm sorry.
00:22:35I'm sorry.
00:22:37I'm sorry.
00:22:39I'm sorry.
00:22:41I'm sorry.
00:22:43I'm sorry.
00:22:45I'm sorry.
00:22:47I'm sorry.
00:22:49I'm sorry.
00:22:51I'm sorry.
00:22:53I'm sorry.
00:22:55I'm sorry.
00:22:58What?
00:22:59Claire, the paparazzi keeps following me everywhere, but I think I could lose them.
00:23:04Can I come over?
00:23:06No. No, I'm crashing at Zoey's.
00:23:08We need to strategize our next move.
00:23:11What next move? There is no next move.
00:23:13I've done my part and took the blame.
00:23:15No, no, no. It backfired. They're not after you now, Claire. They're after me.
00:23:18You could go and apologize to Ava.
00:23:21You can't be serious.
00:23:23No, I mean, if the press sees you do that, then...
00:23:26then they'll think I'm crazy.
00:23:28They'll think you're repentant.
00:23:30You know, I'm starting to question your loyalty, Claire.
00:23:33Are you still with me?
00:23:38Of course, Dylan.
00:23:42I'll be right there.
00:23:49When she gets here, I say we put Claire in her place.
00:23:53The little princess bowing before me. Genius. I love it.
00:23:56And everyone will see just how low she has fallen.
00:23:59That little bitch needs it drilled into her sad head that Dylan is mine.
00:24:04True that.
00:24:06Honestly, the one true star of Muse Talent Agency is Ava Bennett Maxwell.
00:24:14Accurate.
00:24:16She's going to push your buttons. Don't let her.
00:24:20I won't.
00:24:26Stop. She's coming.
00:24:31Ava.
00:24:33Claire.
00:24:37Didn't you come here to do something, like apologize to moi?
00:24:42That's what Dylan wants.
00:24:44Then get to it.
00:24:51What is this?
00:24:53Well, if you really want to apologize to me...
00:24:59then get down on your hands and knees.
00:25:03Then wash my feet.
00:25:08Just when I thought you couldn't sink any lower, you surprise me.
00:25:13Doesn't really sound like an apology, does it?
00:25:18You know what, Ava? I am sorry.
00:25:21You know what, Ava? I am sorry.
00:25:25Seeing you like this, seeing what you've become,
00:25:28seeing just how far you'll go to feed the emptiness inside of you.
00:25:32You know what? It's not your feet that need to be washed.
00:25:35It's that cold, black heart of yours.
00:25:40Bravo, Claire.
00:25:42How long have you been rehearsing that little speech?
00:25:44How long have you been rehearsing that little speech?
00:25:46I'm still waiting on my apology, TikTok.
00:25:50Then let me be perfectly clear.
00:25:53I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:26:01Did you get all that?
00:26:08Hey, fam. Reggie here. Welcome back to my channel.
00:26:11So, the past 40 hours have been cray cray.
00:26:15So, let's figure out what's going on in the battle royale of supermodels.
00:26:20I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:26:28Listen here. Claire Dee was about to show all her true colors.
00:26:32But guess what, fam? That girl has nothing to apologize for. Nada. Zilch.
00:26:37Hey, guys. This intrepid reporter has obtained intimate photos of Ava Bee and a certain Meeps CEO.
00:26:44Dylan M, aren't you engaged to, uh, Claire Dee?
00:26:47She just got a cheat, I guess.
00:26:49And listen here, Ava Bee. You are one naughty, nasty, disgusting little girl, by the way.
00:26:57So, tune in next week to see what happens on the battle royale of supermodels.
00:27:01I'm gonna go ahead and wash my eyes out now because I feel wrong.
00:27:05Wrong. Wrong.
00:27:07Miss Reggie took your anonymous tip and ran with it. That's brilliant, Claire.
00:27:11Oh, that? That was nothing.
00:27:14You're enjoying this.
00:27:16What's that old expression, revenge is sweet?
00:27:19I like this side of you.
00:27:21Then do you want to join me on part two of my revenge?
00:27:24Lead the way.
00:27:29Hey, it's Claire. Leave a message.
00:27:31Hey, Claire Bear. Um, I'm here where you told us to meet. Where are you?
00:27:35Hey, look, Ava thing, it's not what it seems, okay? We can talk about it when you get here.
00:27:41See you soon.
00:27:51I cannot tell you how many times I was one left hanging, waiting for him.
00:27:56Sometimes he would show. Most often, not at all.
00:28:00Do you still love him?
00:28:04How can I love someone I never really knew?
00:28:08Look at him over there, plotting ways to get me back.
00:28:11He's clearly into Ava. Why is he trying so hard to salvage a relationship he cares nothing about?
00:28:16That's the million dollar question.
00:28:23Poor bastard.
00:28:25You want to keep watching?
00:28:27No. I'm ready to move forward.
00:28:30Let's go back to my house and get the last of my things.
00:28:42She came by to say goodnight.
00:28:44Come in.
00:28:48Is this your family?
00:28:49Yeah. This is my debutante ball. I was 20.
00:28:53Was it a memorable night?
00:28:55Unforgettable.
00:28:59Claire? Where are you, Claire?
00:29:03Claire?
00:29:06Claire, there you are. What are you doing hiding out here? This is your debut.
00:29:12I just need a moment, Mom.
00:29:15Well, your grandmother's looking for you. She has someone she wants you to meet.
00:29:19He's quite a catch.
00:29:21I want more from this life than balls and suitable matches and this golden cage.
00:29:26There's a world out there to explore. Adventures to have. Risks to take.
00:29:30Enough of this nonsense, Claire. Your grandmother is not someone to be trifled with.
00:29:36Well, tell her thanks but no thanks.
00:29:39Honestly, tell her I'd rather die than meet another boring, entitled rich boy that checks all of her boxes.
00:29:45Don't be selfish.
00:29:48Can't afford another scandal.
00:29:50Like when Dad left his first wife for you?
00:29:57Like when Dad left his first wife for you?
00:30:04Remember who you are. The sole heiress to the Winthrop Empire.
00:30:10You need to stay here and do your part, young lady.
00:30:14I'm not your young lady. And I'm no longer a Winthrop.
00:30:18From now on, I'll forge my own path and make my own name.
00:30:27That was the last time I saw them before I ran away.
00:30:33They died in a helicopter crash a year later.
00:30:44What's the five going to be today?
00:30:52Endless possibilities. So many to pick from. With AliExpress, you're covered wherever you go.
00:31:00Dylan, did you see it? It should be me modeling for AliExpress.
00:31:05I'm so excited.
00:31:07First a scandal and now this. The world is turning against me. I need you.
00:31:12You're not the only one going through shit, Ava.
00:31:15Why are you being so mean?
00:31:20My office. Now.
00:31:22I'm-
00:31:23Oh!
00:31:24Oh!
00:31:25Oh!
00:31:26Oh!
00:31:27Oh!
00:31:28Oh!
00:31:29Oh!
00:31:30Oh!
00:31:31Oh!
00:31:32Oh!
00:31:33Oh!
00:31:34Oh!
00:31:35Oh!
00:31:36Oh!
00:31:37Oh!
00:31:38Curb your appetite, baby brother.
00:31:41This was supposed to be easy, and you're fucking it all up.
00:31:50Claire, it's me.
00:31:52I'm coming in, okay?
00:31:55Claire, they're replying backfire.
00:31:57Should I be worried? Where are you?
00:31:59I'm home.
00:32:01Bullshit. I am in your house.
00:32:03Yeah, I woke up this morning and got like a thousand texts from Dylan asking for your whereabouts.
00:32:08He wanted my address since you were crashing at my place.
00:32:11But we both know you're not at my place, nor at yours.
00:32:14So Claire, where are you?
00:32:16In the mood for a date?
00:32:18I'm not in the mood for a date.
00:32:21So Claire, where are you?
00:32:23In the mood for a frittata?
00:32:25Fritsata? Who's that?
00:32:31So, I got married.
00:32:34Married? When? How? With? With whom?
00:32:40It's a long story. It's too long for a phone call. Stay put, Gavin will pick you up.
00:32:45Gavin? Who the hell is Gavin?
00:32:50Hey Rookie, Gavin at your service.
00:32:57You.
00:32:58Why would you do that?
00:33:04For being an arrogant prick.
00:33:07You got a short fuse, Rookie.
00:33:09My name is Zoe, asshole.
00:33:20We're coming in.
00:33:30Hi.
00:33:33I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:37I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:39Believe me, Mr. Cross.
00:33:41I know who you are.
00:33:42Everybody knows.
00:33:44Call me Christian.
00:33:45I mean, Claire talks so much about you, I feel like I already know you.
00:33:47Yeah?
00:33:50Cool.
00:33:52Claire, a word?
00:33:56Excuse us.
00:34:00No kicks for him.
00:34:05You married Christian Cross?
00:34:07Don't freak out.
00:34:08It's too late.
00:34:09Christian Cross is your husband.
00:34:12I know.
00:34:13Claire, this is like next, next level.
00:34:15Dylan is gonna shit himself.
00:34:17You couldn't ask for sweeter revenge than dumping that shriveled little worm and scoring the richest, baddest, sexiest dude in this whole frickin' planet.
00:34:27Zoe, we can't tell anyone yet.
00:34:30Swear you won't say anything.
00:34:32I swear.
00:34:34This is going to be epic!
00:34:36Oh my gosh, look how cute.
00:34:38I love it.
00:34:39I love it.
00:34:44Dylan, what are you doing here?
00:34:46I need to talk to you.
00:34:47Doc, have you figured out what's wrong with her stomach?
00:34:50Yes.
00:34:51I predict that it will be resolved in nine months.
00:34:53Why?
00:34:54That's long.
00:34:55Medicine has come a long way, Mr. Maxwell, but even science can't shorten the gestation period of a fetus.
00:35:01Oh.
00:35:05Okay, so.
00:35:07We stabilized your pregnancy and corrected your acute need.
00:35:11You're no longer at risk of miscarriage.
00:35:13But if you continue to neglect your condition, you will need to come back and get another transfusion.
00:35:18Do not wait until you faint this time, Ms. Bennett.
00:35:21Thanks, Doctor.
00:35:22You're welcome.
00:35:23Okay, Ms. Bennett.
00:35:24Mr. Maxwell.
00:35:32No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:35:35I can't believe this.
00:35:37You're pregnant?
00:35:39Why wouldn't you tell me about this before?
00:35:41This is a fucking disaster.
00:35:43How can you have a bun in the oven and walk on a runway, huh?
00:35:47You know what the press finds out?
00:35:49We're fucked.
00:35:51They will tear us to shreds.
00:35:52There is no coming back from this.
00:35:54Do you understand what you've done?
00:35:56If Claire finds out about this, she won't marry me.
00:35:58I've lost everything.
00:36:01How dare you?
00:36:02I am so sick and tired of hearing Claire's name.
00:36:07You are going to be a father now, Dylan.
00:36:09How can you just still marry her?
00:36:11You told me you don't love her anymore.
00:36:12I don't love her.
00:36:14Ava, it is...
00:36:15Then break up with her and marry me!
00:36:17It is not that simple.
00:36:19Claire is worth billions.
00:36:21Or her family is.
00:36:22She is a Winthrop.
00:36:24So you're telling me that that skank-leggy bitch is some secret heiress?
00:36:30When Claire became a model, she had to change her name because her family didn't approve.
00:36:35And how do you know this information?
00:36:37Miranda, my sister.
00:36:38She runs in the same circles as her grandmother.
00:36:41Just think about it.
00:36:43If I marry Claire, the only thing that's standing between me and three billion dollars
00:36:48is an ancient bitch who's about to fall over.
00:36:51You mean three billion dollars standing between us.
00:36:55Yes.
00:36:56Right, Dylan?
00:36:57Of course, Ava.
00:36:58But in order for that to work, Claire cannot succeed.
00:37:02And you have to be at the top of your game and win the competition.
00:37:06Or if that doesn't work, sabotage.
00:37:09Claire won't know what hit her.
00:37:11And we still have the Latour contract.
00:37:13So we can turn this thing around.
00:37:15You'll win top model at the competition.
00:37:18Claire will be crushed and have to marry me.
00:37:22And then we'll tell everybody that you're abroad in Milan where you're having our baby.
00:37:28And once that elder bitch croaks, a series of unfortunate events will happen to Claire.
00:37:34I'm too bad.
00:37:35So sad.
00:37:36Bye bye, Claire bear.
00:37:43Well, after careful consideration, Latour has chosen Claire Duval as the new face of our true love collection.
00:37:56I'm deeply honored by Miss Latour's faith in me.
00:37:59And I look forward to representing such a prestigious global brand.
00:38:03Uh, Mr. Latour, a little birdie told me that Ava B's contract was terminated using a morality clause.
00:38:10Well, after the whole bathroom gate scandal, can you blame me?
00:38:15But Miss Duval's not without her own controversy.
00:38:18Especially after impersonating Ava Bennett at her own show.
00:38:22What made you decide to give her a shot?
00:38:24Well, Christian, you were asking me to bet on an unproven model with a dubious past.
00:38:34I could tell you how brilliant she is, or how lucky you'd be to have her.
00:38:38But I'm not going to try to persuade you, Vince.
00:38:40Time will do that.
00:38:44What I will say is, if you don't hire Claire Duval, Pinnacle will unilaterally stop promoting Latour across all platforms.
00:38:52From film and television productions to our cruise lines.
00:38:57Well, you know, when I decided to expand from a single shop on Jewelers Row to an international brand with shops on seven continents,
00:39:09someone took a chance on me.
00:39:11And it is finally time that I repay that favor.
00:39:14So, to the future of Latour.
00:39:16And we are expecting great things from Miss Duval at her upcoming photoshoot in Seattle.
00:39:27When I asked you to move in, I never pictured you in the kitchen.
00:39:31It's quite a sight.
00:39:33You're not supposed to be home for another hour. I was going to clean up.
00:39:36Where's the staff?
00:39:38I gave them the night off so we could celebrate my gig.
00:39:41Okay, what's it here all about?
00:39:43The oven.
00:39:45I totally forgot about the steaks.
00:39:52I like it that way.
00:39:54If a waiter asked me how I wanted it, I would say that. That looks good.
00:39:58But it's not great.
00:40:00Okay, take out it is.
00:40:03Burst.
00:40:24Cheers.
00:40:29I always wondered what it would be like to come home to someone at the end of the night.
00:40:34And?
00:40:55I'm loving this feeling.
00:40:58It feels so right.
00:41:05Take me away.
00:41:09So have your arms around me.
00:41:12And hold me tight.
00:41:16I'm loving this feeling.
00:41:19It feels so right.
00:41:23Take me away.
00:41:26To a place where no one can offend us all.
00:41:30Take me away.
00:41:42It could all just be so simple, baby.
00:41:46If you wanted to be mine.
00:41:50You don't gotta be shy.
00:41:54Realize you're mine, realize you're mine.
00:41:58Don't take your time, don't take your time.
00:42:01It's alright, it's alright.
00:42:05Say you want, say you want.
00:42:09Talking about everything.
00:42:13So are you ever going to tell me why you had to get married?
00:42:16It's not a very romantic story.
00:42:18And mine is. I think we're past that.
00:42:21The Cross men throughout history have always been adventurers.
00:42:25Some might even say rogues.
00:42:28There were quite a few rakes.
00:42:30More than a few duels.
00:42:32Why sir, how scandalous.
00:42:34I'm most assuredly intrigued.
00:42:37A lot of them died really young.
00:42:39Out of nowhere.
00:42:41The Crosses were literally dying off.
00:42:44So, a codice was added that required all Cross men to be married by the time they were 30.
00:42:49Or they'd lose their inheritance.
00:42:51Seriously?
00:42:52Seriously.
00:42:54I turned 30.
00:42:56On that day.
00:42:59That was your birthday.
00:43:01You didn't even celebrate.
00:43:04Yes I did.
00:43:06You came home with me.
00:43:15The Crosses
00:43:34Christian!
00:43:36My dear, how is your evening going so far?
00:43:39Yeah, good so far.
00:43:41Thank you for inviting me.
00:43:42Of course.
00:43:43And your ventures?
00:43:44Tell me about your most recent acquisition.
00:43:47A Silicon Valley startup with a promising artificial intelligence.
00:43:51I think it could be a game changer.
00:43:53Speaking of change, have you found anyone special?
00:43:57Not yet.
00:43:59I'm still searching.
00:44:00Well, then you must meet my granddaughter Claire.
00:44:05There she is.
00:44:08There she is.
00:44:10You need to stay here and do your part, young lady.
00:44:14From now on, I'll forge my own path and make my own name.
00:44:21Do not test me, Miss Winthrop.
00:44:38Throwing away a billion dollar trust fund for a whimsical game of independence.
00:44:45Don't you worry. I'll bring her to heel.
00:44:48Don't bother. I have no interest in a bride who's been coerced.
00:44:59Hey.
00:45:01You're so beautiful.
00:45:04Hey, stop.
00:45:09Isn't it real for me?
00:45:11Promise we'll never forget that.
00:45:14I promise.
00:45:34Our meetings at Pinnacle should end around five.
00:45:37Then we're done here on seven o'clock.
00:45:39Picking some of the city.
00:45:40I can't wait.
00:45:42Anais Adler is one of the most famous fashion photographers in the world.
00:45:47Christian, what if I freeze up or stumble or choke or something?
00:45:50Then you're spectacular.
00:45:52Because you are spectacular.
00:45:54Okay.
00:46:03Okay.
00:46:11A private plane, a limousine to the shoot, and a hunky mogul waiting for you afterward?
00:46:16Sign me up.
00:46:18These last five years, I've had such bad luck.
00:46:21But since Christian came into my life, I think my luck has finally changed.
00:46:27No one deserves it more than you do, Claire.
00:46:29Now let's get in there and blow them all away.
00:46:41I'm with you today.
00:46:44Claire's my girl. I've got this.
00:46:46I think, Miss Bauer, that we got off on the wrong foot.
00:46:50I think you're an excellent manager.
00:46:52And under normal circumstances, Miss Bauer will be in great hands.
00:46:55But?
00:46:57There are dark forces at play.
00:46:59Claire's going to need all the help she can get.
00:47:02Truce?
00:47:04For Claire.
00:47:06Truce.
00:47:12Claire, this is a first date.
00:47:15You're so nervous, are you?
00:47:18So, what necklace do you wear? Come.
00:47:21S'il vous plaît.
00:47:23That one?
00:47:29Oh, incredible. Oui, oui.
00:47:32Oh, yes.
00:47:34Your eyes have so much awe and thrill.
00:47:39Oui.
00:47:41Claire, come.
00:47:44Oui.
00:47:46Claire, come. Rest.
00:47:48The male model, he should be here any moment.
00:47:51Let's hope whoever they sent can match your looks and your talent.
00:47:55It is tragic. We never worked together before.
00:47:58It's a deal.
00:48:00Okay, you rest.
00:48:04It's happening. It's finally happening.
00:48:08Dylan, you scared me. What are you doing here?
00:48:10Last time that I checked, we were still engaged.
00:48:13So I have every right to see my fiancé?
00:48:15Yeah, well, you lost that right when you slept with Ava.
00:48:19No, that was a one-time thing.
00:48:21And it didn't mean anything at all.
00:48:23But we could have moved past it if you would have just returned my calls.
00:48:28Come on. Don't be like this to me.
00:48:31Not after everything I've done for you.
00:48:34Don't be like this to me.
00:48:36Not after everything I've done for you.
00:48:38Done for me?
00:48:40You weren't just a crappy boyfriend, Dylan.
00:48:42You were a crappy agent, too.
00:48:44I don't know how you trick Latour into giving you this gig,
00:48:48but you're making a fool of yourself.
00:48:51The days of pretending to be a model, they're over, Claire.
00:48:55All right, you're coming home with me right now.
00:48:57We'll get married in Vegas on our way back.
00:49:01No. We're over.
00:49:04We've been over for a long time, Dylan.
00:49:07Leave.
00:49:08We've been over for a long time.
00:49:11Leave.
00:49:15You're hurting me.
00:49:16I haven't even begun to hurt you.
00:49:18You know, my biggest mistake was being too gentle with you.
00:49:22You know that male model that's supposed to show up today?
00:49:25He's not coming.
00:49:27Your biggest break is about to be your worst nightmare.
00:49:31Nobody will show up for you after your little drama today ruins this shoot.
00:49:37What, you think you're too good for me, Claire? Huh?
00:49:40You will never escape from me.
00:49:42Let her go!
00:49:43Hey, you need to leave now.
00:49:46I'm going.
00:49:49I'll see you soon, Claire Bear.
00:49:53Are you okay?
00:49:55No.
00:49:57Dylan canceled the male model.
00:49:59No one's coming.
00:50:01When Latour finds out, I'm ruined.
00:50:05There's still time to fix this.
00:50:07You thinking what I'm thinking?
00:50:14Hey.
00:50:16How quick can you get to the studio?
00:50:18Year one foot traffic, what are we projecting?
00:50:21Fifteen million, conservatively.
00:50:23And if we surpass that?
00:50:24A ten percent bonus is quarterly.
00:50:26Straight up.
00:50:35Let's make history together.
00:50:40Excuse me.
00:50:42How quick can you get to the studio?
00:50:46Hello, Vincent.
00:50:47This is catastrophe.
00:50:49My time, it does not extend eternal.
00:50:52Where is the lover to complete the true love piece de resistance?
00:50:57Annie, I know, I am sorry.
00:51:00We are scrambling to find somebody.
00:51:02But nothing is looking good.
00:51:04This Claire Duval, I am telling you.
00:51:06Disaster just follows this chick wherever she goes.
00:51:23Crisis averted.
00:51:26The lover is here.
00:51:29And won't do what a lover he is.
00:51:34Thank you for doing this.
00:51:36He touch you?
00:51:38Maxwell will pay for this.
00:51:40If he touches my wife.
00:51:45Quick, quick.
00:51:46Get the lover in costume.
00:51:48Please.
00:51:50Excuse me, Miss Adler.
00:51:52Let's try not to show his face.
00:51:54Mr. Cross really values his privacy.
00:51:56I have an NDA here for you and the crew to sign.
00:51:58Thank you so much.
00:52:00Now.
00:52:02This is the grand gesture.
00:52:04The moment of do or die.
00:52:07The height of love romance.
00:52:09Voila.
00:52:11There he is, Claire.
00:52:12Down on one knee.
00:52:13Ring in hand.
00:52:14A question in his eyes.
00:52:16And you.
00:52:17Your heart says leave.
00:52:19You hold lips.
00:52:21This is the dream come true.
00:52:23True romance.
00:52:26Nice.
00:52:40Christian Cross.
00:52:43Christian Cross.
00:52:46I'll be damned.
00:52:48The bond, it has matured.
00:52:51Deepened.
00:52:54No matter what life threw at you.
00:52:57It cannot tear you apart.
00:53:02Look into each other's eyes.
00:53:04And whisper.
00:53:07Hey, wifey.
00:53:09Hey, hubby.
00:53:12This campaign is going to be a massive hit.
00:53:42We all know how she skyrocketed to fame.
00:53:44Of course, by what?
00:53:46Drum roll, please.
00:53:48Yep, that's right.
00:53:50The Latour True Love Campaign.
00:53:52Shot by the one and only Anaïs Adler.
00:53:55Claire Duval.
00:53:57She transcends male beauty.
00:53:59Je ne sais quoi.
00:54:01A soulful essence in her eyes.
00:54:04C'est magnifique.
00:54:06That's right.
00:54:07The Latour True Love Campaign.
00:54:09Ladies and gentlemen.
00:54:10Bamza.
00:54:11This clarity is literally the personification of grace.
00:54:14And the chemistry in this shoot?
00:54:16Oh, my God.
00:54:18It was off, off, off, off the chain.
00:54:20And who on earth is this stunning, faceless model with that sexy back?
00:54:26Yum, yum, yum, yum.
00:54:28I need more. I want more.
00:54:30I need so much more.
00:54:32I have literally been emailing Mr. Vincent Latour daily trying to get the big reveal.
00:54:38Dear Mr. Vincent Latour, here he, here he.
00:54:41You are the worst. I cannot stand you.
00:54:43And you are killing me with the suspense.
00:54:45Sincerely, Reginald.
00:54:47The couple embodies the timeless quality of true love.
00:54:51And we are honored and proud of the positive feedback that this campaign has generated.
00:54:57Now, of course, we all know Mr. Vincent Latour is going to make so much mucho dinero off this campaign.
00:55:04But friends, fans, we are only one week away from the Battle Royale, the Top Model Competition.
00:55:11And guess what? Mr. Vince Latour is going to be a judge.
00:55:15So I might just have to flutter on over to him and ask him in person who this sexy back is.
00:55:21Because guess what, fans?
00:55:23That's right.
00:55:25George Truly has been tapped by the network to host the Top Model Competition.
00:55:31Oh, my God.
00:55:34You like me. You really do like me.
00:55:36You really like me.
00:55:44Who the fuck is this guy?
00:55:46I did everything in my power to make sure the male model would not show up so Claire would follow her face.
00:55:51She always just lands on her feet.
00:55:56Looks like she's landing more than just on her feet.
00:56:00On a kitchen counter.
00:56:02In a hallway.
00:56:04On the stairs.
00:56:05Against a shower wall.
00:56:07Ava, get your mind out the gutter.
00:56:09That's not what you were telling me last night.
00:56:11We're talking about Claire here. She's not like you.
00:56:16Okay.
00:56:17Claire, she's such a saint, huh?
00:56:20The Vestal Virgin.
00:56:22If she's so special, then why didn't you knock her up instead?
00:56:26Oh, wait. I know why.
00:56:28Because Claire didn't like you that much.
00:56:31And now that she's with a guy that she actually likes, you can't handle it, can you?
00:56:39I don't think so.
00:56:41I'm not some meek bitch that's gonna stand for your shit.
00:56:44I am the only one that's gonna make sure that Claire doesn't win Top Model from inside the competition.
00:56:50Don't get too full of yourself, Ava.
00:56:52You're not the only one.
00:56:54Who else do you have in your pocket?
00:56:56What aren't you telling me?
00:56:58Just stick to your plan to sabotage Claire. I'll handle mine.
00:57:02Fine. You keep your secrets, and I'll keep mine.
00:57:12We need to meet.
00:57:14It's too dangerous.
00:57:16The usual spot.
00:57:18Room 201? I'll be there.
00:57:22Hey, no peeking. Just like a little kid.
00:57:26It's a surprise. Just a few more steps.
00:57:30Shouldn't you be swamped with work?
00:57:32We can wait. You are my priority.
00:57:46We need the perfect armor for combat.
00:57:49We need the perfect armor for combat.
00:57:51That's such a guy thing to say.
00:57:54It's a modeling competition, not war.
00:57:56Make no mistake, Claire. It is war.
00:57:59And I'll be there for you.
00:58:02Oh, did I forget to mention Pinnacle is the network televising the event?
00:58:06You definitely did not mention that, no.
00:58:10I'm her wife, Claire. I wouldn't miss it for the world.
00:58:20You should choose your words more carefully.
00:58:23I don't take well to threats.
00:58:25Well, you should have thought about that before you failed so miserably.
00:58:30Let's not forget, I own you.
00:58:34I'll admit, Claire being nominated to top model does put an unexpected wrinkle in your...
00:58:41Wrinkle? You were supposed to end it.
00:58:44...unexpected wrinkle in our...
00:58:46Wrinkle? You were supposed to end this modeling nonsense, not launch her into the stratosphere.
00:58:52Your granddaughter hasn't won yet.
00:58:55And if you play your part, Claire will walk down that runway and crash and burn.
00:59:07Start talking.
00:59:10Here's what we do.
00:59:15I cannot wait to knock off that old battle axe.
00:59:18Hmm. Oh, fall in the shower.
00:59:21A mix of medication...
00:59:24Alright, focus, Dylan.
00:59:26That will happen after you marry Claire.
00:59:30Now, I need you to go visit Bruno Lundy.
00:59:34Make sure he knows he won't be a judge this year.
00:59:38Convince him it's worth his while.
00:59:41And that old bat? You think she's up for it?
00:59:43She'll do it.
00:59:45Grace Winthrop has controlled that family for 50 years.
00:59:51No one has even stood up to her.
00:59:54Except Claire.
00:59:56She doesn't just want Claire back in the fold.
00:59:59She wants Claire under her thumb.
01:00:04Just hold tight, Gavin. I'll let you know after I speak with Claire.
01:00:10Morning, Cubby.
01:00:14I need you to sit down.
01:00:16What's wrong, Christian? You're scaring me.
01:00:19The head of production at Pinnacle noticed a judge change in the competition.
01:00:23Really needs you to sit down.
01:00:25What's wrong, Christian? You're scaring me.
01:00:28The head of production at Pinnacle noticed a judge change in the competition.
01:00:32Really needs you to say this, Claire.
01:00:34Your grandmother's going to be one of the judges.
01:00:37What? That's not possible.
01:00:40She would never... There's been a mistake.
01:00:42She despises modeling. She hates that I became one.
01:00:46Why would she do this?
01:00:48Why would she do this?
01:00:59My own grandmother is going to vote against me.
01:01:02I can't escape her.
01:01:04This isn't the first time your grandmother's tried to destroy your career, Claire.
01:01:09I had investigators looking at Dylan and Miranda.
01:01:12What do they have to do with this?
01:01:14Two years ago, Maxwell Holdings was on the verge of bankruptcy
01:01:18from a series of bad investments and poorly timed expansions.
01:01:21Muse and all of its subsidiaries were on the chopping block.
01:01:25Then, they received an influx of cash from a new, silent partner.
01:01:30Winthrop Limited?
01:01:32Yes.
01:01:33Terms of the deal were that Dylan and Miranda
01:01:36were to do everything in their power to derail the future of a promising young model.
01:01:42You, Claire.
01:01:45So all the rumors that I was on drugs, incompetent, unstable...
01:01:50My own grandmother was behind all of it.
01:01:52Yeah, but you were more stubborn than they calculated.
01:01:55You never gave up, Claire.
01:01:57I saw her manage everyone in my family.
01:02:00My own parents were like sycophantic puppets in her grasp.
01:02:03But I never thought she'd go to such lengths to control me.
01:02:07It's like she doesn't see me as a real person, with needs and fears and dreams.
01:02:12That's her loss, Claire.
01:02:15I wonder if marrying Dylan was a part of her plan.
01:02:18I mean, she's tried to marry me off before.
01:02:22Then you must meet my granddaughter, Claire.
01:02:26There she is.
01:02:32Okay, about that.
01:02:35About that.
01:02:37As if I'd marry someone she chose.
01:02:40Have you found anyone special?
01:02:42Then you must meet my granddaughter, Claire.
01:02:48I don't believe that your grandmother would consider Dylan for you.
01:02:52That is Miranda Maxwell written all over it.
01:02:55Your grandmother never technically disinherited you.
01:02:58As her sole surviving heir, Dylan stood to come into billions after marrying you.
01:03:02Yeah, but my grandmother's still alive.
01:03:05Yes, there is that.
01:03:10I just want a fair competition, where I win or lose on my own merits.
01:03:15Not because the deck is stacked against me.
01:03:18Your grandmother's just one judge.
01:03:21There are three others.
01:03:29Hey, sexy.
01:03:33Hey.
01:03:45Claire, one more.
01:03:46One more, one more.
01:03:47Claire, right here.
01:03:48Claire, who's taking home the top model title tonight?
01:03:51You or Ava Bennett?
01:03:52Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.
01:03:54There are ten models in this competition who got here through hard work and talent.
01:03:58This is a night to celebrate all of us.
01:04:00A time to honor...
01:04:07I can't escape her.
01:04:09This isn't the first time your grandmother's tried to destroy your career.
01:04:14That's all, folks.
01:04:15Miss Vaughn has a big night ahead of her.
01:04:17Thank you.
01:04:18Claire, one more.
01:04:19How do you know Christian Grass?
01:04:23I think I'm going to be sick.
01:04:25I didn't expect it to be that hard, seeing her like this.
01:04:28Okay, hang tight, Claire.
01:04:29Gavin, help her.
01:04:30I'll go get her wet towel.
01:04:33Do you want water or something?
01:04:34Yes, thank you.
01:04:38Just try to relax.
01:04:50Check and see if anyone's inside, Simon.
01:05:00Alright, coast is clear.
01:05:02I gotta be back at the judging table in five minutes, so we gotta be quick.
01:05:07Then shut up and get busy.
01:05:10Gross.
01:05:11Yuck.
01:05:12Not again.
01:05:14Ava.
01:05:15Ava, you saucy minx.
01:05:17You're killing me.
01:05:18Show me sexy.
01:05:21That belly of yours.
01:05:22Oh, so yummy.
01:05:23That's my baby.
01:05:25Come to papa.
01:05:26That's my baby.
01:05:27Come to papa.
01:05:29Holy shit.
01:05:30No freaking way.
01:05:47Hey, Christian.
01:05:51You will not believe what Ava's been up to.
01:05:53I'm listening.
01:05:55Not now.
01:05:56I don't want to distract Claire, but quite a bombshell.
01:06:01You can barely contain my excitement.
01:06:05Where are you sitting?
01:06:07Behind the judges.
01:06:08First row.
01:06:10Hey, wifey.
01:06:12You alright?
01:06:13Sure, hubby.
01:06:14The last remaining member of my family is here to ruin me.
01:06:17But I'm doing awesome.
01:06:19Breathe, Claire.
01:06:20You got this.
01:06:21You got this.
01:06:23If it gets to be too much, just find me in the crowd.

01:07:49Suck it in, Mama! We're almost there!
01:07:52Zip it, Felix! Tighter!
01:07:55A masterpiece.
01:07:57Not yet. We have other plans tonight, remember?
01:08:06Leave it to me, Your Highness. Your baby's got you.
01:08:19Ow! What are you doing?
01:08:21You brute! I bent down to pick up my name tag.
01:08:24Are you security or shall I call security?
01:08:27Just get out of here.
01:08:32No. No!
01:08:35May the best bitch win, bitch.
01:08:39Don't listen to her.
01:08:44Next up is Ava Bennett,
01:08:46our reigning top contestant for the past three years.
01:08:49She slays harder than Santa, so watch out for those reindeer.

01:09:19Move, boy! Idiot.
01:09:21Next up is Claire Duvall, whose meteoric rise in the industry
01:09:25has caught everyone off guard.
01:09:27Including me.
01:09:30Next up is Claire Duvall, whose meteoric rise in the industry
01:09:34has caught everyone off guard.
01:09:36Next up is Claire Duvall, whose meteoric rise in the industry has caught everyone off guard.
01:10:06C'mon my love, rise up and show them who you are.
01:10:37Your girl's career imploded before it even took off.
01:10:40But you're making a fool of yourself.
01:10:43The days of pretending to be a model, they're over Claire.
01:10:47Ava is our top billing model, and you, Claire.
01:10:52It never really took off.
01:10:54You've lost everything, and you just don't know it yet.
01:11:01C'mon my love, rise up and show them who you are.
01:11:07From now on, I'll forge my own path and make my own name.
01:11:13I will forge my own path and make my own name.
01:11:36C'mon my love, rise up and show them who you are.
01:12:07C'mon my love, rise up and show them who you are.
01:12:29Get off me!
01:12:32Bitch.
01:12:37Way to go Claire, you slicker.
01:12:57And now the moment you've all been waiting for.
01:13:02Oh my god.
01:13:03Folks, we just had a glitch in the Matrix.
01:13:06Something that has never happened in the 23 years of top model competition.
01:13:10A tie between Ava Bennett and Claire Duvall.
01:13:21What? Seriously?
01:13:23Clearly, mature has something going on with Claire.
01:13:26Really Ava?
01:13:27Because last I checked, you and Judge Simon Blackwell have been getting a little too cozy and...
01:13:33Whoops.
01:13:34There's a mini Blackwell on the way.
01:13:36Yep, she's expecting his baby.
01:13:39His baby?
01:13:40No, that's my baby.
01:13:44Hey easy, relax man, relax, relax.
01:13:50Get a grip, both of you.
01:13:52Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:13:53Let's not turn this into a daytime drama, okay people?
01:13:56We are here to crown a winner, which means we need a decisive vote.
01:14:00Top model competition rules state that in the event of a tie,
01:14:03we will have an independent third party determine who has won.
01:14:06So, we are now bringing out the big guns.
01:14:09Christian Cross, CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment, you're up sir.
01:14:22Mr. Cross, we'll now cast the tie-breaking vote.
01:14:27So, who will be the 23rd winner of the top model competition?
01:14:36There's only one person who embodies the grace, character, and beauty of a top model.
01:14:44And that is Claire Duvall.
01:14:47Woo!
01:14:55But I have a conflict of interest, because Claire Duvall is not just a top model contestant.
01:15:03She's also my wife, Claire Duvall Cross.
01:15:17Seriously? This is so unfair. Of course she gets him, and all I have is...
01:15:32She was sleeping with him while she was with me. How dare she?
01:15:35Clue in, Dylan. We need to do damage control.
01:15:38Grace Winthrop could pull our whole loan after this. We could lose everything.
01:15:42Detective, these two right here.
01:15:44These two right here.
01:15:45What?
01:15:46Miranda Maxwell, Dylan Maxwell, you're both under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder.
01:15:50No, this is a mistake.
01:15:52Get your hands off me!
01:15:55Totally epic.
01:16:01Nicely done, my boy.
01:16:05What are you talking about?
01:16:07Are you gonna tell her, Christian, or am I?
01:16:10Tell me what?
01:16:11See that man there? The one that's standing next to you? The one you wed?
01:16:16He was my choice for you.
01:16:19I set you up with him five years ago.
01:16:25To thank Claire all those years of defying me, and you ended up exactly where I wanted you.
01:16:37Is this true?
01:16:41Is this true?
01:16:45Yes.
01:16:47Look, that day outside the courthouse, that wasn't a setup.
01:16:51Then why hide the connection to my grandmother? Why the lies?
01:16:54Because I knew how bad it looked, especially after Maxwell tried to use you.
01:16:58How can I believe you?
01:17:00Because we're meant to be together.
01:17:04Because we're meant to be together.
01:17:07I've never seen a mom come on stage like you did up there.
01:17:10For a nobody.
01:17:12You're not a nobody.
01:17:14And we took their eyes off of you.
01:17:21These last five years, I've had such bad luck.
01:17:24But since Christian came into my life, I think my luck has finally changed.
01:17:37This is real for me. Promise you'll never forget that.
01:17:42I promise.
01:17:46I promise.
01:17:51Whatever it is, fate, luck, whatever you want to call it, Christian, I'm all in.
01:18:07I've washed my hands of both of you.
01:18:22You ready to meet my family?
01:18:36How can he remember his name? He can't even remember mine!
01:18:39Shut up, Dylan. Shut up, Dylan. Shut up, Dylan!
01:18:43I want my lawyer! Now!
01:18:46Meanwhile, Ava Vee has quit modeling to focus on becoming a full-time mother.
01:18:51Yeah, couldn't even say that with a straight face.
01:18:53We all know what she's doing for money, don't we?
01:18:57Shut up, baby!
01:19:00Now, let's get to the real big news.
01:19:03The crosses are expected!
01:19:05That's right. You heard it here first.
01:19:07Claire Dee and Christian Cross are expecting a little mini-cross.
01:19:11I'm so excited.
01:19:17So, you can expect it to be epic.
01:19:20Be sure to subscribe and tune in to Real Shorts, of course, with Reggie here,
