00:00These are all so good, I don't know how we're going to decide.
00:16Brian?
00:17Are you okay?
00:19You haven't tried any of them.
00:26This one is my favorite.
00:28I'll go with the vanilla.
00:29You know, it's my wedding, so I will be making the decisions.
00:33I'm not actually sure why you insisted on coming today.
00:37When were you planning on telling her?
00:39Uh, Astrid, there's something I've been meaning to talk to you about.
00:45Out with it, Brian.
00:48Astrid?
00:49I'm pregnant with Brian's baby.
00:57That is not funny.
00:58I'd hate to be the one to break it to you, but Brian and I will be getting married in
01:04a couple of weeks, instead of you.
01:07So I'm assuming that you won't be needing a plus-one.
01:12Astrid, I'm sorry.
01:18You're sorry?
01:21You're sorry?!
01:22Five years, Brian!
01:23Five years!
01:24Down the drain!
01:28I've been paying your rent to help you with your business, and I've been helping you with
01:34your mom when she is sick.
01:35Are you fucking kidding?!
01:36Oh my god, stop being so dramatic.
01:38Look, I already packed your shit from his apartment.
01:42It's at the dump.
01:44Where you belong.
01:54Adam, I'll move my meeting to Monday and not for the evening as of...
02:24No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
02:54sir Madame acid I keep an eye on you in case you try to run away again I
03:04appreciate that Mason I'm just gonna use the bathroom is that an issue I'm not
03:1012
03:24Give me your vest, give me your pants.
03:49Keep the suit.
03:53Oh my god.
03:55Has to be worth like ten thousand.
04:00She'll let more men strip me naked.
04:03Oh, oh my god, sorry.
04:08Astrid? It really is her.
04:19Hi.
04:20Hi.
04:22Can I, can I walk you home?
04:25And she looks horrified to see me.
04:28I guess that makes sense considering she's my ex.
04:31And I was the one who broke her heart.
04:34Ryder?
04:36Ryder Van Woodson.
04:37What the hell are you doing here?
04:41Ryder Van Woodson.
04:43What the hell are you doing here?
04:46You're not Ryder.
04:48What?
04:49Sorry, oh my god.
04:50She doesn't recognize that it's me.
04:52You are just this spitting image of this evil ex of mine from high school.
04:58But more buff, for sure.
05:01Oh my god, I've had enough drama for one day to have to deal with that old flame.
05:05He broke up with me, ran him late, crushed me in two million.
05:07If only you knew the truth about why I broke up with you.
05:09Sorry, I'm blabbering.
05:11I guess it wouldn't hurt to be a good old friend of Clyde for a little bit.
05:14She looks like she really is a friend.
05:16Well, I'm sorry you had a horrible day.
05:18On behalf of my apparently skinnier and less handsome doppelganger,
05:22I offer you a drink.
05:24Yes, you're a godsend, Clyde.
05:26A drink is exactly what I came here for.
05:29A Long Island, please.
05:31A Long Island coming right up.
05:33You know, speaking of dumb reasons to get dumbed,
05:37I actually just got dumbed like 15 minutes ago.
05:40Two weeks before our wedding.
05:42I was pregnant.
05:44You're pregnant?
05:46He dumped you because of a baby?
05:48No, he knocked out my stepsister.
05:50Oh my god.
05:52We've been together for five years,
05:54and how much of that time was he pinning down my stepsister?
05:57I mean, am I so just worthless of a girlfriend?
06:00Thank you.
06:02The man I thought I was going to spend the rest of my life with
06:07has just been with my stepsister.
06:10That's a very weird tasting Long Island.
06:12That is the, uh, special.
06:16You know, maybe you're supposed to be with someone who actually wants to cherish you.
06:20Someone, from the moment that they laid eyes on you,
06:24knew that you'd be the one for them.
06:29That is a horrible drink.
06:32No offense.
06:35But that is hitting, so thank you.
06:40Um, hi.
06:42My baby!
06:45Oh, I just heard.
06:47Ryder.
06:50What are you doing here?
06:56I know.
06:58Very similar looking to Ryder.
07:01Clyde.
07:02Clyde.
07:03Adam. Adam. Clyde.
07:06Ryder.
07:07Ryder is this asshole CEO.
07:10He's got buckets and buns of money.
07:14Oh, buckets and buns, huh?
07:16He wouldn't need to be bartending to some drunk folk like us.
07:19Can I actually get another one of those please?
07:21Um.
07:23Yeah, my mistake. Right.
07:26But how are you doing?
07:29Men are stupid, you know?
07:32Just one too many you've had to deal with this evening.
07:38Since you asked, personally, I am peachy.
07:44I can see that.
07:46Honey buddy, why don't we get you home now, okay?
07:50And maybe let's stop sitting next to the man that looks like your ex,
07:55before someone sees you.
07:57We should take a selfie.
07:59Can we? Can we?
08:00Clyde, come on.
08:01Pretend to be Ryder, would you?
08:02Let's take a selfie.
08:03Come here.
08:07All right.
08:08Time to go. Okay.
08:10Good night, Mr. Dean.
08:12Get your bag.
08:16I owe you one.
08:17Up to no good, you are.
08:20All right, come on. Here we go.
08:27Will you just cross?
08:29Cross, but careful of the...
08:31Okay, all right.
08:34It was good to see you one more time, Astrid.
08:38If I could do that.
08:39Are you good? Are you good?
08:43I don't want you to have to stay with him any longer than is necessary.
08:46No, you are so right.
08:47Yes.
08:48Thank you for everything.
08:54Of course, you'd be there.
08:59The one place I have left to sleep.
09:01Why are you here?
09:03Well, I couldn't actually go to my ex-fiance's place.
09:07No thanks to you, Gina.
09:09Some stepsister.
09:10You are.
09:12So, actually, I had nowhere else to go.
09:15Oh.
09:16So you got kicked out of Brian's and you come to my mom's place to sleep?
09:22Are you serious?
09:24I mean, go be a homeless bum somewhere else.
09:28Get out.
09:29You are no daughter of mine.
09:31You were an asshole to me and you were an asshole to Brian.
09:35That's why he did not want anything to do with you.
09:39Luckily, Gina was able to keep his wealth in the family.
09:43No thanks to you.
09:45Really?
09:46Really.
09:48And my dad, who's been in the hospital, in and out for the last five years.
09:54Have either of you ever dared to lift a finger to try to help?
09:59No.
10:00I didn't think so.
10:02I'm going to bed.
10:03Oh, you are not sleeping here.
10:07Okay, I'm not sleeping here.
10:11It's not like I enjoy being in your presence.
10:15Probably get contaminated with whatever sticks up both of your butts.
10:19Like mother, like daughter, right?
10:24You come into my house.
10:25You are under my roof.
10:27You will show me respect.
10:29Respect is earned.
10:33You've done nothing to earn my respect.
10:38Get out.
10:39I don't ever want to see you again.
10:46Oh, but you will see me again at Gina's grand wedding.
10:51With my new man, who's actually richer than Brian.
10:56Oh, yeah, right.
10:58Like who?
11:02Ryder Van Woodson.
11:04Ryder Van Woodson.
11:10Okay, Ryder dumped you in high school.
11:13Why would he be interested in someone like you?
11:16You don't deserve someone like him.
11:18I guess you're just going to have to wait and see on your big date, Gina.
11:23It's going to be my hot new date.
11:25I'm going to go pack my shit and leave.
11:31How is that possible?
11:33Mom, Ryder Van Woodson, the heir of the Van Woodson group?
11:37I don't believe that little bitch.
11:48I have nowhere to go.
11:50Except maybe my dad's at the hospital, but that's a far walk.
11:55I have to convince Ardender Clyde to go with me as Ryder to the wedding.
12:03Ashton, you are just full of great drunk ideas.
12:20Why are you here?
12:22Oh, good, you're home.
12:24I wanted to ask you, how was your date with little Miss Dolly?
12:27Spectacular.
12:28Really?
12:29No, Mom, I was being sarcastic.
12:31Then why didn't you just say so?
12:33Would you please, can you please just stop setting me up on these blind dates?
12:38Ryder, you know why I'm doing this. You need an heir.
12:42My head is throbbing, Mom.
12:44Did you take your medication today?
12:46No.
12:47Figures.
12:50So are you going to stop?
12:52No.
12:54We need someone capable to run the business, okay?
12:57Just in case...
13:01In case I die?
13:09In case I die?
13:11I was going to say, in case you are no longer able to do it all alone.
13:20We did a number of tests on your son, Mrs. Van Woodson.
13:24And I'm sorry to inform you that Ryder has a brain tumor.
13:34Now, we can discuss some treatment options.
13:39At the moment, the cancer has taken over a portion of his brain that we don't feel is safe to operate.
13:51What?
14:04Ryder! Ryder!
14:06Yeah? Well, don't you worry about me. I can handle it.
14:12Yeah, well...
14:15Ryder, are you alright?
14:20Honey? Honey, are you alright?
14:24Oh, you're having an episode, honey. We have to go to the hospital.
14:41Here.
14:44You doing okay? You wandered in here very drunk last night.
14:51Brian cheated on me with Gina.
14:54I'm so sorry, honey.
14:59Oh, morning, half-lung.
15:02I'm sorry, what did you just call my dad?
15:05So, there have been some changes with the insurance coverages on your dad's provided care.
15:11New doctor in sight was needed.
15:13I'm sorry, you're telling me that you changed the doctor to someone that wasn't under our coverage so you could gouge more money from us?
15:19I am literally already homeless. What, are you taking another 10,000?
15:2350,000, most likely.
15:25And what I'm telling you is that if you're unhappy with the provided care here, you can find another hospital to bitch at.
15:41So what are we going to do?
15:44I'm not sure, but I'm going to do what I have to do.
15:49What are you going to do?
15:51I'm going to get my daughter back.
15:53And you, what are you going to do?
15:55I'm going to get back at him, because he's my father.
16:00I'm going to get back at him.
16:02I'm going to get back at him.
16:04You're not going to get back at him?
16:06No, I'm not going to get back at him.
16:08What did you just call my dad so there have been some changes with the insurance coverages on your dad's provided care
16:15Your doctor insight was needed. I'm sorry
16:18You're telling me that you change the doctor to someone that wasn't under our coverage so you could gouge more money from us
16:23I am literally already homeless. What are you taking another 10,000?
16:2850,000 most likely and what I'm telling you is that if you're unhappy with the provided care here
16:34You can find another hospital to bitch at
16:38You
16:53Adam I need you to yes. Good morning, Adam
16:58Okay enough. I'll see you when I get in the office right now. I need you to look into I
17:04I slept at the hospital with my dad. She's fine. It's obviously not sustainable
17:13Yeah, I'd also really like to have a place in case he gets discharged
17:20You know, I'd say you could stay at mine but the in-laws have taken the refuge here as well, you know, I'm
17:30Let me call you back
17:33Hey
17:38How do you know Astrid
17:40She's been my best friend since college
17:43Why are you trying to get buddy-buddy with Astrid under an alias?
17:49She needs a place to stay right? She spent the night at the hospital with her dad. You didn't answer my question
17:55Who is Astrid to you? Mr. Van Woodson? No
17:59And no, no, no, no, no, don't give me that you were giving me those googly eyes begging me not to reveal who you are
18:06So, mr. Van Woodson
18:08What are you doing with Astrid? I?
18:10Know you to date it. That's why I haven't told her I work for you. I
18:16Just want to help her
18:18That's all she needed a friend she has a friend you sir, not a friend
18:24You are an ex of hers who ripped out her heart and ate it for breakfast I had no choice
18:31We all make choices
18:33You had yours
18:35Choice is an illusion
18:37Now back to what I was saying. She needs a place to stay, right?
18:54Moving in with a stranger who looks exactly like your ex's totally normal. Come on
19:13Hey Astrid, he even sounds like him
19:18Astrid yeah
19:21Okay, of course I will
19:43Rider
19:44Sorry Clyde. I called you writer again
19:48It's okay
20:01Adam said he needed a roommate. I just happened to need one as well. Yeah weird coincidence
20:07Um
20:11About the other night I was very drunk and I'm a bartender don't worry about it. I
20:19Actually prepped us some dinner. I hope you like salmon
20:38Oh, sorry, um, what's wrong? Can you actually what's wrong?
20:49Are you okay? Sorry. No, don't be sorry. Okay
21:08Do you do you want to talk about it? No, I'd rather not I understand
21:25Um, I do have to ask you something yeah sure ask away I
21:31I
21:33Might have told my stepmom and step sister that I was going to the wedding with right around Woodson
21:39I showed them that selfie that I took with you
21:42You don't have to but if you'd be willing to go and pretend to be right around Woodson
21:55Sure, really you would do that. I mean, I don't see why not free food and drinks, right?
22:01Yeah, I mean I've been planning for it to be an open bar
22:06Then you're gonna have to brief me on you and writers relationship. Oh
22:12Sure, I mean he was a skinny kid not at all your physique
22:20Anyway, yeah, we had a
22:23Really loving relationship. We were
22:26completely inseparable
22:28Talking about moving in together starting our futures very serious stuff for we seventeen-year-olds, but
22:35Should have known one day. He would just be a dick
22:40Check and check
22:44If only she knew that I would just be showing up as myself
22:47I
22:57Came to see how he was doing still sick and dying. Oh good. I would hate for my husband to recover
23:06Anyways, I need a favor from you. I need a certain medication
23:17You
23:24I'll pay you extra for it. Wait here got just what you need
23:36You stupid old man
23:39Your daughter wasn't worth saving you should have just let her
23:45I
23:46Collected the insurance money and run off together
23:50But you had to be the stubborn hero, didn't you?
23:54Lost all your money to medical bills
23:57You
24:10Yeah, what's up
24:12The doctor you wanted me to look into yeah
24:16Turns out dr. Daniel Evans has no background as a medical care professional
24:22in fact
24:23He is a criminal background
24:26Selling drugs
24:37Come on where are you going? I'm kicking a drug dealers ass. Are you joining me or not?
24:55You
25:01After Daniel Evans
