00:00:00Marry me?
00:00:01Shelby Trudeau must be married by five o'clock today or she loses her inheritance.
00:00:06I'm Sergeant Shelby Trudeau. I'm here to claim my inheritance.
00:00:09Who's gonna marry you anyhow? The last guy you even slept with was a one-night stand three years ago at Mardi Gras.
00:00:14All right, let's get married.
00:00:16I can't keep living in the past. Maybe it's time to see what the future holds.
00:00:21Why can't you just tell her it's your place? You're a public figure.
00:00:24When do you think you can keep the charade up?
00:00:26The girl from Mardi Gras didn't know I was a Roy. She liked me for me, and I want that again.
00:00:30You can't keep pining over some girl you met three years ago.
00:00:34Enjoy the little victory while it lasts.
00:00:37I see you're still trying to rob my wife of her inheritance.
00:00:40How pathetic and pointless. Tell him how in love we are.
00:00:43Sometimes I forget how to let go, but for you every day is fun.
00:00:48Actually, he's just about one of the wealthiest men in the state.
00:00:51You are Roy's secret bride. A woman he is so ashamed of, he would hide the marriage for the rest of the world.
00:00:57We need to get a divorce.
00:00:58I mean, I've spent my whole life looking for you.
00:01:01Sometimes love isn't enough.
00:01:05Could it be?
00:01:07It's her. It's always been her.
00:01:09How could it be so blind?
00:01:22I'm bored.
00:01:25According to Mr. Trudeau's will, your eldest daughter, Miss Shelby Trudeau, must be married by five o'clock today, or she loses her inheritance.
00:01:36That un-ladylike girl is not my daughter.
00:01:39Bad enough I'm her stepmother.
00:01:41Ryan, hello. We want Shelby to know show. That's the way we get everything.
00:01:47I'm Sergeant Shelby Trudeau. I'm here to claim my inheritance.
00:01:52Well, look who it is. The prodigal sister. And dressed in your old uniform.
00:01:56Pathetic. Still trying to play hero.
00:01:59I'm in the army.
00:02:00You're a hero, Miss Trudeau.
00:02:02I'm a hero.
00:02:03You're a hero.
00:02:04You're a hero.
00:02:05You're a hero.
00:02:06You're a hero.
00:02:07You're a hero.
00:02:08You're a hero.
00:02:09You're a hero.
00:02:10You're a hero.
00:02:11You're a hero.
00:02:12You're a hero.
00:02:13You're a hero.
00:02:14You're a hero.
00:02:15I'm in the army reserve now, Cece. I was doing weekend drills with my unit.
00:02:20The will, please.
00:02:22Ooh, the army reserve.
00:02:25Should have just died in the field like a good little soldier.
00:02:28No one would have missed you.
00:02:29Shut your trap before I shut it for you.
00:02:33Look, you don't have to respect me, but don't you dare speak about soldiers dying in vain on the battlefield.
00:02:39God, look around, Cece. Your curled hair and your frilly dress.
00:02:43Do you think any of that would be possible without others sacrificing?
00:02:47You have freedom and peace because someone else is carrying the burden.
00:02:57Of course. The will, Sergeant Juneau.
00:03:01And I want to thank you for your service.
00:03:04Your father's will stipulates that the inheritance is yours only if signed by both you and your spouse.
00:03:13Ooh, that means you've got 15 minutes to find a husband, Shelby.
00:03:17Tick tock.
00:03:18Don't say I'm a bad stepmother. Give up your inheritance and I'll give you one percent.
00:03:23It's better than nothing.
00:03:26You stole my father from me most of my life. You will not take what he left me.
00:03:30And what this money could do to help the gym and the army reserve?
00:03:35I don't know.
00:03:37I don't know.
00:03:39I don't know.
00:03:41I don't know.
00:03:43I don't know.
00:03:45I don't know.
00:03:46I don't know what this money could do to help the gym and all the women that are part of it.
00:03:52Really, Shelby? Who's going to marry you anyhow?
00:03:56The last guy you even slept with was a one-night stand three years ago at Mardi Gras.
00:04:13Don't. Keep the mystery.
00:04:17You've already lost, Shelby. Take the one percent I'm offering and be grateful for it.
00:04:24Right. You're not even going to find a bum on the street to marry you in time.
00:04:30Watch me.
00:04:34Watch me.
00:04:47Don't worry.
00:04:54He looks single.
00:04:56Oh, my God. This is totally FUBAR.
00:04:59Suck it up, soldier. You can't let your evil stepmother and stepsister win.
00:05:06Hey, mister.
00:05:08Will you marry me?
00:05:10Hey, mister.
00:05:12Will you marry me?
00:05:22I know this sounds crazy and there's no time to explain, but if you help me, I promise a generous reward once I get my inheritance.
00:05:29Well, this day just got a whole lot more interesting.
00:05:32So you won't have to live on the streets anymore.
00:05:34Do I look like a homeless person there?
00:05:36Priceless.
00:05:38Shelby Trudeau, are you insane? You can't marry this...
00:05:43Helpful.
00:05:46Shelby Trudeau, the late Judge Trudeau's eldest daughter.
00:05:50That's right. The judge said she was a soldier.
00:05:53He didn't mention she was beautiful, too.
00:05:55Here's a few bucks.
00:05:57Take it and get lost. Don't meddle in our business.
00:06:01Don't speak to him like that. He's a person with feelings.
00:06:05The Cinderella Tale, complete with an evil stepmother and obnoxious stepsister.
00:06:11It's clear who deserves my help, and the timing couldn't be better for me.
00:06:15All right. Let's get married.
00:06:17Let's get married.
00:06:32Names for the marriage certificate?
00:06:35Shelby Trudeau.
00:06:37And your name is?
00:06:40Griffin Roy.
00:06:48And congratulations, you lovebirds.
00:07:00This isn't over.
00:07:02Kill her.
00:07:05Kill her.
00:07:07Kill her.
00:07:09Kill her.
00:07:11Kill her.
00:07:13Kill her.
00:07:15Kill her.
00:07:17Kill her.
00:07:22Sergeant Trudeau.
00:07:24Mrs. Roy.
00:07:26You have to stay married for at least one full year,
00:07:29or everything goes to your stepmother and stepsister.
00:07:33You hear that, Shelby?
00:07:35You won't last a week with that hobo.
00:07:41Come on.
00:07:47I guess we'll need to keep in touch, but you probably don't have a permanent address.
00:07:53Once the estate gets settled and I have the money, we can get you an apartment and set you up with a job.
00:07:59When most people get what they wanted, they usually just walk away.
00:08:04I'm not most people.
00:08:06I see that.
00:08:14I gotta return this.
00:08:15I gotta return this.
00:08:17Goodbye for now.
00:08:20Goodbye, wife.
00:08:34Where the hell have you been?
00:08:46Fuck.
00:08:51Gotcha.
00:08:53Seriously, this is over the top, even for you.
00:08:58This DNA, get it to Detective McSwain right away.
00:09:01Look, as your campaign manager, I need you to be more focused on your image, okay?
00:09:06You'll never catch LaRoche dumpster diving.
00:09:09Marrying Isabel was the best decision of my life.
00:09:14You know, when you elected me to Congress three years ago, you got a package deal.
00:09:20Griffin Roy, just another billionaire bachelor, playboy lawyer, the best.
00:09:26This, my friend, is where you're vulnerable.
00:09:29In a snap, I can line up a dozen beautiful, successful women who want me for what I am, not who I am.
00:09:35Look, you can't keep pining over some girl you met three years ago.
00:09:39It's not just some girl.
00:09:41We had a connection.
00:09:43Never had that before.
00:09:50Look, I gotta run.
00:09:52But Griffin, you need to find a woman who can stand by your side.
00:09:56Someone real.
00:09:58Not this made-up mystery girl you've built up in your head.
00:10:01Mystery girl you've built up in your head.
00:10:20Remember that true strength is not physical.
00:10:23It comes from the belief that you are worth defending.
00:10:26Alright guys, let's class.
00:10:28Nice work.
00:10:32So what's the latest on the STD super spreader?
00:10:35I tried to call him, but Mr. Chlamydia blocked my number.
00:10:40Who knows how many other women he's done this to.
00:10:43So I was thinking maybe it's time to go by his place and confront him in person.
00:10:50What's holding you back?
00:10:52Andre's a regular guy, Shelby.
00:10:54He's got a bro pack.
00:10:56These men are like wolves with money.
00:10:58Let's go.
00:10:59We'll face this douchebag together.
00:11:20What's your name?
00:11:22I'm Stephanie.
00:11:24How about a drink, huh?
00:11:26Oh, that's okay.
00:11:27Come on, one little drink won't do no harm.
00:11:30Okay, one drink.
00:11:32Really Pierce, this clown is the one who controls the town's power brokers.
00:11:36You wanna beat LaRoche, you gotta mingle with the good, the bad, and the Andres.
00:11:46I can't believe I slept with that.
00:11:49What was I thinking?
00:11:51I guess I can't hold my liquor.
00:11:53I mean the night was just one big black hole.
00:11:57It wasn't the alcohol that caused you to black out.
00:12:04Thanks.
00:12:06That creep.
00:12:08You dickless loser.
00:12:17Drugging girls to get laid.
00:12:19What the fuck?
00:12:21Get out of my house, skank.
00:12:23I'm the skank?
00:12:24That's funny, you're the one spreading chlamydia.
00:12:27Shut the fuck up and get out of my house.
00:12:30Unless you're back from horror, I know how much of a whore you really are.
00:12:34You like spreading your legs, don't you?
00:12:36I just told you that you have chlamydia and you...
00:12:39Oh my god, you already know you have it.
00:12:43And you don't care.
00:12:46Ladies, Andre Ivanov has been knowingly spreading chlamydia.
00:12:55What is she doing here?
00:12:57Both of you, get out of here.
00:13:03Oh shit.
00:13:05She can't know who I am yet.
00:13:11Do you know who I am?
00:13:13I don't care.
00:13:19Where did she come from?
00:13:21That's my wife.
00:13:22Isn't she amazing?
00:13:24And she's gonna cost you Andre once he finds out you're married to her.
00:13:27I don't care.
00:13:29You think you can crash my party and put that ninja shit on me?
00:13:32You are one dead bitch.
00:13:44Oh, nice.
00:13:46Did you see that combo?
00:13:48Dude, she can fight. Look at her form, man.
00:13:53Dude, she can really fight, man.
00:13:56You are hopeless.
00:13:58Hey, swap me jackets. I'll give you my Rolex.
00:14:23Fuck you, Roy. I'll do everything I can to end you.
00:14:28We should get out of here.
00:14:34Get him!
00:14:37You lied to me. You're not some homeless guy.
00:14:40Okay, when did I say I was homeless?
00:14:42You were next to a dumpster. That's not much of a leap.
00:14:45What were you doing at this party?
00:14:47Working in the room.
00:14:48Oh, thought you were one of those asshole rich guys.
00:14:53I'm sorry. I hope I didn't cost you your job.
00:14:56I know how you can make it up to me. Have dinner with me.
00:15:01My place is nearby. I'll whip something up as a thank you for tonight.
00:15:05Wow, a wife who cooks and kicks ass.
00:15:09I'm one lucky man.
00:15:11Don't push it.
00:15:19Hey, dinner's ready.
00:15:25This is nice. I haven't had a home-cooked meal in a long time.
00:15:30It's one of the things I missed the most when I was deployed.
00:15:33How long were you in the military?
00:15:35Seven years. I joined right after high school.
00:15:38My mom had just died and I was feeling rudderless.
00:15:41You weren't close with your father?
00:15:44I was. He was my hero.
00:15:46He was my hero.
00:15:48Until he wasn't.
00:15:51He cheated on my mom with Margo.
00:15:54He was the judge and she was the court stenographer.
00:15:57It was quite the scandal at the time.
00:15:59That must have been really hard for you.
00:16:02It was harder on my mom.
00:16:04She didn't want anything to do with him, so I cut him off too.
00:16:07Even started using my mom's maiden name.
00:16:09But then three years ago he reached out, told me he was sick, so I came to New Orleans for a visit.
00:16:14Here I am.
00:16:17Enough about me.
00:16:19What's your story, Gryffinroy?
00:16:24Shelby Trudeau, come on out now.
00:16:27We know you're in there, Shelby. The light is on.
00:16:29We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:16:32We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:16:35Hey. I'll handle this.
00:16:38Oh. I thought I heard a couple of stray cats out here yelling, but it's just you two.
00:16:43And you are?
00:16:45That's the homeless guy that Shelby married.
00:16:47What are you doing here?
00:16:49Why wouldn't Gryffin be here?
00:16:51He's my husband, after all.
00:16:53Mama, what are we going to do? We need to challenge the will.
00:16:56But how can we do that if they're still together?
00:16:58Shut up, Cece.
00:17:00Oh. I see you're still trying to rob my wife of her inheritance.
00:17:03How pathetic.
00:17:04And pointless.
00:17:06Look how in love we are.
00:17:08I'll be back.
00:17:10Enjoy the little victory while it lasts.
00:17:14Right. We're going to shred that will and your shame of marriage in no time.
00:17:28Margo and Cece are going to be a problem.
00:17:30There's no way they'll let us be.
00:17:31What if we moved in together?
00:17:34You want to live here?
00:17:36No.
00:17:38Somewhere with better security.
00:17:40Like my place.
00:17:42Sure.
00:17:44I'm dying to see where you live.
00:17:51So let me get this straight.
00:17:53You told her you're house-sitting?
00:17:56That's right.
00:17:57Said I was going to watch the house while the owner was in Europe for the year.
00:18:01You do know how crazy that sounds.
00:18:03Why can't you just tell her it's your place?
00:18:09I saw you from across the room and I had to talk to you.
00:18:12That's very flattering, but you don't know anything about me.
00:18:15I know you take my breath away.
00:18:17And I know that I would wonder, for the rest of my life, if I didn't take this chance.
00:18:22Even if it was only for one night.
00:18:24Maybe it's better this way.
00:18:25No names, no past.
00:18:28We can just be ourselves.
00:18:31I'd like that very much.
00:18:34The girl from Mardi Gras didn't know I was a Roy.
00:18:37She liked me for me.
00:18:39And I want that, again, Pierce.
00:18:42Even for a little while.
00:18:51Stash all this stuff in my room.
00:18:53Stash all this stuff in the garage, please.
00:18:57Griffin, you're a public figure.
00:18:59A lot of people know who you are.
00:19:01How long do you think you can keep this charade up?
00:19:04I don't know.
00:19:06But I have a chance to be with someone without all the crap that goes along with being a Roy.
00:19:10Well, just remember, we're about to launch a multi-platform campaign.
00:19:14In two weeks, TV, radio, social, billboards, your face is about to be everywhere.
00:19:20Then I better make the most of the next 14 days.
00:19:43This place is insane. The owner must really trust you.
00:19:47Yep. We're pretty tight.
00:19:51Here, let me show you to your room.
00:19:59I can't keep living in the past.
00:20:02Maybe it's time to see what the future holds.
00:20:12Goodbye, mystery lover.
00:20:13Okay.
00:20:19I take it things are going well with Xena Warrior Princess?
00:20:22Oh, she's so exciting and competitive. Keeps me on my toes.
00:20:26And so damn beautiful. Face sweaty, no makeup, so damn real.
00:20:31When do I get to meet her?
00:20:33Her military background and work with actress women will be a real asset for both female and male voters.
00:20:38Dial it back, Pierce. We're in the early stages.
00:20:40Alright, well, don't take too long.
00:20:43You married her for the campaign.
00:20:45And it's not like she can dump you once she finds out.
00:20:48She needs you for her inheritance.
00:20:58Good.
00:21:04Hey.
00:21:06I'm taking care of you tonight.
00:21:08Oh, I like the sound of that.
00:21:10Keep your mind out of the gutter, woman. I'm talking food here.
00:21:13Alright, in that case, surprise me.
00:21:16Try. I'm full of surprises.
00:21:18I bet you are.
00:21:30Gotcha, sis.
00:21:32So this is where you've been hiding out.
00:21:40Did you want some of my wine?
00:22:11I turned off your alarm. You obviously needed to sleep.
00:22:15We can run tonight.
00:22:17P.S. You snore, but it's super cute.
00:22:20I do not snore, Griffin Roy.
00:22:22I do not snore, Griffin Roy.
00:22:40What are you doing in a place like this?
00:22:42I live here.
00:22:44When did you move in?
00:22:46Last week. We're house-sitting.
00:22:48Yeah, I've heard that one before.
00:22:49Listen, this is an exclusive neighborhood. Thieves are always trying to break in.
00:22:54Who are you calling a thief?
00:22:56Please step out. Now!
00:22:59What the hell are you doing?
00:23:01Just routine inspection.
00:23:05Let's see what else you're hiding here.
00:23:15Get your filthy hands off my wine!
00:23:17What?
00:23:20No!
00:23:23Oh, cool. I thought I was saving you, but it looks like you got it.
00:23:29Oh, look out!
00:23:33Damn, lady. You make it look easy.
00:23:37Are you hurt?
00:23:39Just my pride.
00:23:42Looks like you get a flat.
00:23:44Let's get out of here. We can take my car.
00:23:47This is yours?
00:23:49Borrowed it from a friend.
00:23:51Right.
00:23:54I know all the guards who work here, and you sure as hell aren't them.
00:23:59Who the hell are you, man?
00:24:01Some kind of big shot or something?
00:24:03Oh, I'm your worst nightmare.
00:24:07All right. You're under arrest.
00:24:11What the hell is going on?
00:24:20Well, that didn't go as planned.
00:24:23Mama, this is all your fault.
00:24:25You pushed me to hire those thugs to humiliate Shelby,
00:24:28and now my money's wasted and she got off scot-free.
00:24:30Eyes on the prize, Cece.
00:24:32Once we inherit the entire Trudeau estate, this'll be pocket change.
00:24:36Yeah, and who would have thought that bum would have got the police involved in all this mess?
00:24:40I don't believe he's a bum.
00:24:42I mean, how can a homeless man be so clever?
00:24:44No matter whether he's a tramp or not, he married Shelby for her money.
00:24:49Offer him a better deal and he'll leave her.
00:24:52We annul the marriage and claim the entire estate.
00:24:57Oh, isn't Victoria Wilcox the porter party billionaire looking for a new gigolo?
00:25:02That old cougar?
00:25:04Oh, Cece, honey.
00:25:06Women that age, they're not cougars.
00:25:08They're saber-toothed tigers.
00:25:14Well, then we just got to make him an offer he can't refuse.
00:25:20You really should have iced these right away.
00:25:24I realize that now.
00:25:26I've only ever sparred with gloves on, never thrown a bare-knuckle punch before.
00:25:33What?
00:25:35Did I just hand in my man card?
00:25:37No, you knocked a guy out with one punch.
00:25:39Your man card is fully intact.
00:25:42You just sounded like a prep school rich boy for a second.
00:25:47Not just for today, but for everything.
00:25:50It's been really lonely since my dad died, and it's nice having someone on my side.
00:25:55There's no need to thank me.
00:25:58I am your husband.
00:26:01Close your eyes.
00:26:03Okay.
00:26:05Fair is fair.
00:26:07I owe you one.
00:26:08Close your eyes.
00:26:19Okay.
00:26:21Fair is fair.
00:26:23I owe you one.
00:26:39Sorry.
00:26:41I know we're just pretending.
00:26:44Right.
00:26:46Pretending.
00:26:50I'm gonna...
00:26:52I'm gonna go for a run.
00:26:55Okay, I'll come with...
00:27:01What if it's just me?
00:27:03Wouldn't that be ironic?
00:27:04What if it's just me?
00:27:06Wouldn't that be ironic?
00:27:08The first woman I'm into for so long is not into me.
00:27:10Fuck!
00:27:25Griffin kissed me, and it felt just like that night three years ago.
00:27:30What's wrong with me?
00:27:31How can I feel the exact same way for two different men?
00:27:45I don't know. He looks like a wet street dog.
00:27:48I'll shower and a haircut, and he'll be marginally presentable.
00:27:52Hey! You!
00:27:58We got a proposition for you.
00:28:01How'd you like to be richer than you ever imagined?
00:28:04Well, that'd be a dream, ma'am.
00:28:06Get in.
00:28:19Are you sure he's not homeless?
00:28:22Eats like a dirty pig.
00:28:23Do you want me to divorce Shelby and marry Victoria Wilcox, the shithouse billionaire?
00:28:35You will refer to them as porta-potties, young man.
00:28:39We know you're after Shelby's inheritance, but she's never gonna see it.
00:28:45Well...
00:28:47He'll do.
00:28:49Oh.
00:28:51Oh, he'll do just nicely.
00:28:55Wait a minute.
00:28:57Have we met before? Because you look real familiar.
00:29:01No.
00:29:03Nope. I don't think I run in your kinds of circles, Miss Wilcox.
00:29:07The first document are official divorce papers.
00:29:13The first document are official divorce papers.
00:29:16And you will also be paid 20 grand a month to provide intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:29:25Oh, you don't need to worry, boy.
00:29:28Because I have the libido of a 26-year-old.
00:29:46I don't understand. This says...
00:29:49You're under arrest for pandering.
00:29:52Detective McSwain, this woman has tried to recruit me as a sex worker.
00:29:59That's a Class C felony.
00:30:01He's lying.
00:30:04And you will also be paid 20 grand a month to provide intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:30:11Detective.
00:30:13Detective.
00:30:15There must be some misunderstanding. There's no nonsense going on here.
00:30:20No, you can't arrest me on the word of that bum. He set me up.
00:30:24Detective McSwain, it's getting late. I'd like to go home and see my wife.
00:30:34Wait.
00:30:36You have made a big mistake rejecting me.
00:30:40I'm a woman of wealth and power that you cannot fathom.
00:30:45I will make you pay very dearly for this.
00:30:48I don't think anyone mentioned my last name.
00:30:51It's Roy.
00:30:57Well, I knew you looked familiar, you see. I'm just an old woman. You could forgive me.
00:31:04Get out of my face.
00:31:06Hold on. Excuse me.
00:31:11Alright, we got her in the car. How far do you want this to go?
00:31:15Put the fear of God into her. Mug shot, fingerprints, the works.
00:31:20Then in the morning, drop the charges. Before the press gets wind.
00:31:24Pierce her to have your hide.
00:31:26You got it, Griff.
00:31:36Where have you been? I was worried you were gone so long.
00:31:41Yeah?
00:31:43Yeah.
00:31:45Uh, are you hungry? I can heat up some leftovers.
00:31:49Yeah, I'd like that.
00:31:53Did that just happen? Maybe I have a shot with her after all.
00:32:06Oh, baby, my little girl.
00:32:10I will never forget the humiliation that man has caused us.
00:32:15Don't you worry, Mama. I have a plan.
00:32:18I had all night to think about it in that cold, hard cell.
00:32:22If he doesn't want to divorce Shelby, fine.
00:32:25We'll just force Shelby to divorce him.
00:32:29And I know just where to hit it where it hurts.
00:32:32Just where to hit it where it hurts.
00:32:36He's amazing.
00:32:52I think we shaved 30 seconds off that time.
00:32:56I thought I was competitive. You even compete with yourself.
00:33:03You're not growing.
00:33:05You're dying.
00:33:07I, um, I'm going to go shower.
00:33:11Me too.
00:33:16Get a grip, Shelby. So he's hot.
00:33:20You've been around dozens of smoking hot men in the service.
00:33:23What makes him any different?
00:33:25He just is.
00:33:27Hey, Zara.
00:33:29Shelby, you have to get here right away. Buford's kicking us out the gym.
00:33:37I'm sorry, my hands are tied.
00:33:41He says we have to leave.
00:33:43Okay, I got this.
00:33:45Mr. Buford, what are you doing? This is my place of business.
00:33:48You're done here. I saw the building, the new office.
00:33:51I'm going to the gym.
00:33:52What are you doing? This is my place of business.
00:33:55You're done here. I saw the building. The new owners want you out.
00:33:58That's illegal. I have a lease.
00:34:01They've got a break clause for new management, and they've decided to activate it.
00:34:05Who the hell is they?
00:34:11That would be us.
00:34:15Cliff, we can take it from here.
00:34:17Sure thing. Pleasure doing business with you, ladies.
00:34:19I know you used all your army money for this gym, but you can get it back.
00:34:24All you have to do is sign this divorce petition.
00:34:28Get a divorce, give up your inheritance, and then you can keep your dinky, smelly gym.
00:34:42I bet you want to hit me so bad.
00:34:45Not so tough now, are you, Shelby?
00:34:47Screw you.
00:34:49I'll just pack up and find a new location.
00:34:52Sorry, the building is now closed for...
00:34:55renovations.
00:34:57And everything inside now belongs to me.
00:35:00Of course, you could sue, but that would take months.
00:35:05Well, what would happen to your gym now, Shelby?
00:35:09That's blackmail.
00:35:11We like to call it capitalism.
00:35:13You don't sign, we close the gym, and then you lose everything.
00:35:17Think about what you're doing.
00:35:19This gym is a lifeline for so many women.
00:35:22I won't let you take it from them.
00:35:24You can beg, but I won't budge.
00:35:28Be a smart girl and sign the papers by tomorrow, or you can kiss your Valkyrie Fight Club goodbye.
00:35:36And watch us turn it into Valkyrie Strip Club.
00:35:41Isn't that a good idea?
00:35:43There's poles and everything.
00:35:44Oh, my.
00:35:46Plenty of girls.
00:35:47They're cute.
00:35:48They are cute.
00:35:49Cute enough.
00:35:59I'm not here because I'd give a damn if you win.
00:36:02I'm here to make sure that Griffin Roy doesn't.
00:36:05Well, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
00:36:08The fuck you say?
00:36:09What exactly did Roy do to earn your loathing?
00:36:13He partnered up against me with a She-Warrior.
00:36:17I want to see them both destroyed.
00:36:20Well, with your connections and my political might, I think that might be able to be arranged.
00:36:35LaRose got Andre.
00:36:36LaRose got Andre.
00:36:38What are we going to do about this?
00:36:40Nothing.
00:36:41We do not want these two pairing up, alright?
00:36:44This is political suicide.
00:36:45Just talk to Shelby.
00:36:47Maybe if you both apologize...
00:36:48Um, hell no.
00:36:50Let them do their best.
00:36:52Mark my words, this is going to come back to bite you in the ass.
00:37:00Hello, Shelby.
00:37:02Griffin, we need to talk.
00:37:06Okay.
00:37:12Shelby?
00:37:13What's going on?
00:37:14You sounded tense on the phone.
00:37:18I have so many missed moments.
00:37:20Things I should have said or done.
00:37:22Chances that were lost that might have been pivotal to my life.
00:37:26I don't want you to be another moment that I miss.
00:37:37Okay.
00:37:40You first.
00:37:41You first.
00:38:05You first.
00:38:11You first.
00:38:42You first.
00:38:49That was...
00:38:50Fucking amazing.
00:39:02Griffin?
00:39:03Where are you going?
00:39:05Griffin?
00:39:07Griffin!
00:39:09Explain yourself.
00:39:12Toothbrush.
00:39:15PJs.
00:39:17This is Jacques.
00:39:19Why?
00:39:21You're my wife.
00:39:22I sleep with you now.
00:39:23We probably should have talked this through.
00:39:26Yeah.
00:39:27You said you had missed moments.
00:39:30I've had them too.
00:39:32You will not be one of them.
00:39:35I know we said we were pretending, but...
00:39:38I want to give us a chance.
00:39:40A real one.
00:39:42Oh?
00:40:05I love you.
00:40:30I now pronounce you man and wife.
00:40:35Kiss the bonnie lass, why don't ya?
00:40:53Cece, meet me at the gym in one hour.
00:40:55We can go over the divorce papers.
00:41:02Goodbye, my husband.
00:41:05Goodbye.
00:41:12I knew something must have happened.
00:41:20Hello.
00:41:21Pierce.
00:41:23I need you to use all your connections to find out what Cece and Margot Tudor did to Shelby yesterday.
00:41:29Because of them, my wife is divorcing me.
00:41:33It's five in the morning.
00:41:35You have an hour.
00:41:41How did Cece get the money to buy the entire Rampart Drive building?
00:41:45She and Margot Tudor are using the Tudor mansion as collateral.
00:41:48Stupid.
00:41:49Good for us, bad for them.
00:41:52And the property title?
00:41:53Still in escrow.
00:41:54The title hasn't been transferred yet.
00:41:57Make sure it is in your name.
00:41:59Morning.
00:42:00You're about to be the proud owner of a mid-rise building on Rampart Drive.
00:42:03Oh, goody, goody.
00:42:10Talk to me, McSwain.
00:42:11I showed the fake guards in lockup Cece Trudeau's mugshot.
00:42:14You're right.
00:42:15She's the one who hired them to rough up your wife.
00:42:17How'd you know?
00:42:19Had her M.O. written all over it.
00:42:21I take it the kid gloves are off this time?
00:42:23Oh yeah.
00:42:24Cece Trudeau thinks she's untouchable.
00:42:26Let's show her just how wrong she is.
00:42:30A few hours later
00:42:36I'm glad you finally came to your senses, Shelby.
00:42:39I definitely have.
00:42:42Showtime.
00:42:43I'm your campaign manager, not some hired muscle.
00:42:47Here's what I think about your agreement.
00:42:52Did you see that?
00:42:53Did you see that?
00:42:54She chose me, man.
00:42:55She chose me.
00:42:56Well, hell.
00:42:57Looks like she did.
00:42:59You fucking bitch!
00:43:02That's her cue.
00:43:07Say goodbye to your gym, Shelby.
00:43:09You're gonna lose everything.
00:43:11You know, at least I still have my self-respect.
00:43:13Which is more than I can say for you.
00:43:15Don't be hasty, Cece.
00:43:17She's basically a man.
00:43:18You'll get hurt.
00:43:19I will find a way to reclaim what is rightfully mine.
00:43:22But I will never agree to your demands.
00:43:26Reclaim what's yours?
00:43:28You're never gonna step foot in your precious gym ever again.
00:43:34That will be difficult to enforce since I now own the building.
00:43:38Who the hell are you?
00:43:40Pierce Durand.
00:43:41The new owner of 222 Rampart Drive.
00:43:47Your deal fell out of escrow.
00:43:50I swooped in and bought it.
00:43:52That's impossible.
00:43:53I own it.
00:43:54I own it.
00:43:55Let me spell this out in a way that even an imbecile will understand.
00:43:59I outbid you.
00:44:01The building is mine.
00:44:03Now scram.
00:44:04I'm Emma.
00:44:06Miss Trudeau, I want to ensure you that your lease is secure.
00:44:10The only change will be a 40% rent reduction.
00:44:14That's unbelievable.
00:44:17Are you sure you can afford that?
00:44:18Oh, yeah.
00:44:20Thank you, Mr. Durand.
00:44:23The gym means a lot to the women in this community.
00:44:31Cece Trudeau, you're under arrest for extortion.
00:44:34The fake guards identified you as the one who paid them to attack Shelby Trudeau.
00:44:39Okay, well, but that was last week.
00:44:41You can't arrest me now.
00:44:42We most certainly can.
00:44:44And this time, the charges won't be dropped.
00:44:46No, no, no.
00:44:48No, you can't take my girl.
00:44:50I'm coming after you.
00:44:51I'm never going to forget this when I get out.
00:44:53You're mine.
00:45:02Zara, call everyone.
00:45:06Valkyrie Fight Club is back in business.
00:45:15Well, aren't you going to go over there?
00:45:17You're the one that orchestrated this whole thing.
00:45:19No, it's her victory.
00:45:22I merely did what a husband should to ensure her happiness.
00:45:26That's my reward.
00:45:28That is some wild shit you just spouted.
00:45:30This girl is seriously causing you to lose it, Griff.
00:45:33You worry too much.
00:45:34And you don't worry enough.
00:45:36We have a campaign to win.
00:45:38And you're ten points behind LaRoche in all the latest polls.
00:45:41What are you driving at?
00:45:42Tell Shelby who you are.
00:45:44The voters need to know who your wife is.
00:45:46The voters need to know who your wife is.
00:45:48And we need to be able to shape the narrative.
00:45:50You wait too long and Neville LaRoche is going to find out and beat us to it.
00:45:55Okay.
00:45:56I'll tell her.
00:45:58I just...
00:46:00I need a few more days of just me with her.
00:46:04Then I'll confess everything.
00:46:06That's Shelby Trudeau.
00:46:15Owner of the Valkyrie Fight Club.
00:46:17Pretty girl.
00:46:19So is she screwing?
00:46:21Duran or Roy?
00:46:23I don't know, sir.
00:46:24That luncheon was so boring, Neville.
00:46:28Those stuck-up twats kept going on and on about their precious lineages dating back to the Mayflower.
00:46:36Not everyone's white trash like you, Isabel.
00:46:41It is a wonder how you overcame your low-class origins and gained my interest.
00:46:50That wasn't your interest, darling.
00:46:52That was your cock.
00:46:53Hmm.
00:46:54Touché, my dear.
00:46:56Why are you looking at a picture of her?
00:46:58Do you know Shelby Trudeau?
00:47:00Well, she went by Michelle in high school.
00:47:03But yeah, that's her.
00:47:05She was a star athlete with an annoying habit of defending every loser in school.
00:47:10From bullies like you, per se.
00:47:13Oh, that is unfortunate.
00:47:17You'll have to work that much harder for when you two reconnect.
00:47:21No, no.
00:47:23I mean your new bestie, Isabel.
00:47:25Shelby, no.
00:47:34It's cooling off.
00:47:36We should go inside.
00:47:38Just a few more minutes.
00:47:40I can't remember the last time I let myself just be.
00:47:46Yeah.
00:47:47I think it was when my parents were still together.
00:47:50Before the divorce, the cheating, Mom getting sick.
00:47:55I was carefree then.
00:47:57I joined the Army after, but that was just another rollercoaster.
00:48:02It's kind of hard to chill when you're deep in hostile territory cutting off weapons supply routes.
00:48:08I'm glad you feel safe here.
00:48:12It's not the place, it's the person.
00:48:15I feel like I've known you forever.
00:48:23Shelby, I have to tell you something.
00:48:32I guess I can wait one more day.
00:48:40Our most sought after place at Valkyrie is our women's self defense kickboxing.
00:48:47Sign me up.
00:48:50Oh shit, Isabel.
00:48:52The girl who made my life and everyone else's a living hell in high school.
00:48:56What sneaky BS is she up to?
00:48:59Oh my gosh, Michelle, is it you?
00:49:02I go by Shelby now.
00:49:04You look amazing.
00:49:06Michelle, Shelby, and I go way back.
00:49:10Gosh, what a small world.
00:49:13Well, for membership we offer weekly and monthly subscriptions.
00:49:17How about I pay up front for three years?
00:49:20And I'll be sure to tell all my friends to join.
00:49:23You know, if you're really serious about this, you'll have to lose the bling before class.
00:49:29I was a mean girl in high school, and I'm really ashamed of it.
00:49:34What you've built here is so empowering.
00:49:38If I had had something like this growing up, then maybe I would have found the courage to stop my pa from all the horrible things he did to me and Ma.
00:49:49Shelby, can we start over?
00:49:51Would you let me try to make it right?
00:49:55Okay.
00:50:05This is so awesome!
00:50:07How about lunch? I'm free to grab a bite right now. We can catch up.
00:50:13Okay, let me grab my bag.
00:50:15Get it, baby!
00:50:25Griffin Roy has made criminal justice reform the heart of his campaign.
00:50:29He's pro-union and has a five-point plan to improve workplace safety regulations.
00:50:35Shit!
00:50:37No, no, not you. I gotta call you back.
00:50:42Laroche knows about Shelby. He's sicked Isabelle on her. Look, here's her Instagram.
00:50:48What the fuck?
00:50:50Laroche's oppo research must have tagged her.
00:50:52Look, we just lost control of the narrative, Griffin.
00:50:54Screw the narrative. It's a trap.
00:50:56They've got my wife.
00:50:59I thought this was supposed to be a quick bite.
00:51:01I have a business to run, you know.
00:51:03You haven't changed a bit since high school. So dedicated. I've always admired that about you.
00:51:09Alright, cut the crap, Izzy.
00:51:11Others might buy your ladylike act, but I know you're still the same old Isabelle.
00:51:15You're still the same old Isabelle.
00:51:17You're still the same old Isabelle.
00:51:19You're still the same old Isabelle.
00:51:21You're still the same old Isabelle.
00:51:23You're still the same old Isabelle.
00:51:25Others might buy your ladylike act, but I know you're still the same vicious bully inside.
00:51:31You didn't come to my gym by accident. What's your angle?
00:51:33Neville asked me to befriend you.
00:51:35I don't want to be here.
00:51:37So I can just add that to the list of reasons why I fucking loathe you.
00:51:43What's my angle, Shelby?
00:51:46The complete and utter destruction of Griffin Roy.
00:51:49And if I can take you down with him, all the better.
00:51:56Shelby, listen to me. The press are on their way.
00:51:59I don't have time to explain, but I fucked up.
00:52:02You have to get out of that restaurant. Now.
00:52:08Too late to run. My hubby's here.
00:52:10Leaving so soon, Ms. Trudeau.
00:52:12Or should I say, Mrs. Roy?
00:52:18Come on, Shelby. Pick up. Let me know you got out of there.
00:52:21Who the hell are you?
00:52:23Congressman. Neville LaRoche.
00:52:26I understand why your husband probably never mentioned me.
00:52:28Seeing as how there's so much he hasn't told you.
00:52:31Please, sit down.
00:52:33Isabelle was supposed to keep you company until after I arrived.
00:52:37No matter.
00:52:39We'll do this the less genteel way if we must.
00:52:44Both of these men are retired Navy SEALs.
00:52:47Both of these men are retired Navy SEALs.
00:52:50I've heard a lot about your fighting skills, so I came prepared.
00:53:00What's this about?
00:53:03What's this about?
00:53:04I spoke with your stepmother, Margo.
00:53:07She had quite the story to tell.
00:53:10It seems Roy has led you to believe that he's some bum on the streets.
00:53:15When actually, he's just about one of the wealthiest men in the state.
00:53:20I can't believe you fell for that.
00:53:23Not so smart now, are you, Shelby?
00:53:26You're lying.
00:53:28You are Roy's secret bride.
00:53:31A woman he is so ashamed of, he would hide the marriage for the rest of the world.
00:53:36When the press arrives, you will share your story of betrayal with the voters of Louisiana.
00:53:42They may know what kind of man Roy really is.
00:53:54Hey, I got you.
00:53:58Let me go.
00:54:00Shelby, please.
00:54:02Why did you keep your marriage a secret?
00:54:04The voters have a right to know.
00:54:06What else are you hiding?
00:54:08You son of a bitch.
00:54:10Now, Roy, don't blame others for your own stupid mistakes.
00:54:25Shelby, please, hear me out.
00:54:28Don't shell me.
00:54:31All of your charm, it's just a lie.
00:54:34I never meant to let it get this far. I planned on coming clean.
00:54:38Lies, Griffin Roy?
00:54:40I was going to tell you today.
00:54:41Convenient.
00:54:43Why didn't you just tell me you were a billionaire from the start?
00:54:46Did you actually think I'd come after you for your money?
00:54:49That was always a possibility.
00:54:53Get away from my house.
00:54:55This is technically my home.
00:54:58God, how sitting my ass.
00:55:01You are the worst and I never want to see you again.
00:55:05Shelby.
00:55:12Congressional candidate Griffin Roy has a secret bride.
00:55:15Our reporter is...
00:55:35You got to get a sip of that?
00:56:06This is private property.
00:56:09Which I own.
00:56:10Liar.
00:56:11Pierce Durand owns this building.
00:56:13He works for me.
00:56:15Then I'll move.
00:56:17I don't want to owe you anything.
00:56:36Oh Shelby, Shelby, come out would you please.
00:56:42I wake up in the morning and reach for you, but you're not there.
00:56:54I can't breathe at the thought of losing you.
00:56:59Mr. Roy, do you think she'll ever forgive you?
00:57:05You're ridiculous.
00:57:06You do know that, don't you?
00:57:08Oh Shelby, Shelby, don't leave me hanging.
00:57:12What are you doing?
00:57:13You're supposed to turn it on.
00:57:16Yeah, I got it from a pawn shop.
00:57:20It's broken.
00:57:21Guy totally scammed me.
00:57:23You are beyond ridiculous.
00:57:26Please Shelby, I didn't say what I wanted to before.
00:57:31Just give me a chance to explain.
00:57:36Fine.
00:57:37Come in you fool.
00:57:39I'll come into my own house.
00:57:46You have two minutes.
00:57:54Growing up as a Roy, no one ever liked me for me.
00:58:01It's always been about the money, the excess.
00:58:07Then at a moment, three years ago, where someone did like me for me.
00:58:16They had no idea who I was.
00:58:19And I just remember how freeing it felt.
00:58:25So when I met you, and I felt that spark I've been searching for.
00:58:32I didn't think.
00:58:34I just fucking left.
00:58:37Why wait so long to tell me?
00:58:39I've never gone into enemy territory to cut off weapons supply routes.
00:58:45I boxed in prep school.
00:58:48Yeah, you got that right.
00:58:50But otherwise, I've always been more of a lover rather than a fighter.
00:58:57And I've done well as a lawyer.
00:58:59But I did not earn those billions.
00:59:03I inherited them from generations of dickheads.
00:59:10When you meet a girl, it's a total package.
00:59:14You just want to be her total package too.
00:59:17You really are ridiculous.
00:59:20You know, I have laughed more with you in the past two weeks than I have in my entire life.
00:59:26I'm way too serious, Griffin.
00:59:28Sometimes I forget how to let go.
00:59:31But with you, every day is fun.
00:59:34So, does that mean you forgive me?
00:59:37I'm thinking about it.
00:59:41Yeah.
00:59:43You think too much.
00:59:44Time for make-up sex.
00:59:50So, that's make-up sex.
00:59:53Yeah.
00:59:58Griffin, it hurts so much thinking we were over.
01:00:02I never want to feel like that again.
01:00:05I promise not to let anything get in between us.
01:00:15This changes everything.
01:00:17Now, thanks for the heads up.
01:00:19I'd appreciate it if you could keep it buried for as long as possible.
01:00:30Run.
01:00:32I want to stay right here.
01:00:36Where the hell are you, Griff?
01:00:38This is DEFCON 1.
01:00:40Hey, man.
01:00:42Seriously? That's all you have to say?
01:00:44Seriously? That's all you have to say?
01:00:50Come on.
01:00:56How could you keep something like this from me?
01:00:58We've known each other since college.
01:01:00What are you talking about?
01:01:02Didn't you get any of my texts or calls?
01:01:04I must have forgot to charge it.
01:01:07I had quite a night last night.
01:01:09Shelby and I made up.
01:01:11She's forgiven me.
01:01:13Well, she won't forgive you for this.
01:01:16You're a goddamn bigamist, Griffin Roy.
01:01:22Michelle Lane.
01:01:24I don't even know who that is.
01:01:26Well, you knew her well enough to marry her three years ago.
01:01:29This can't be right.
01:01:31I got it from a parish clerk.
01:01:33She's agreed to keep it hush-hush for now.
01:01:35The ceremony was conducted at a church.
01:01:37The priest signed and completed the marriage certificate.
01:01:41Father Timothy O'Shea.
01:01:46I now pronounce ye man and wife.
01:01:50The Mask Girl from Mardi Gras.
01:01:52I finally know her name.
01:01:55The Mask Girl from Mardi Gras.
01:01:58I finally know her name.
01:02:00Michelle.
01:02:01Shit.
01:02:03That finally makes sense.
01:02:05Of course you wouldn't knowingly become a bigamist.
01:02:08Shelby.
01:02:10Fuck.
01:02:12What am I gonna tell her?
01:02:13Look, it could still be one big mistake.
01:02:16I need to talk to that priest.
01:02:24I have something for you.
01:02:33I hacked into the parish database.
01:02:35Griffin Roy is legally married to both Michelle Lane and Shelby Trudeau.
01:02:40That's it. He's finished.
01:02:43Griffin Roy will be in jail for bigamy for cocktail hour.
01:02:48Michelle Lane is Shelby Trudeau.
01:02:51They're legally married to each other on two separate occasions.
01:02:54They just don't know it yet.
01:02:57That's insane.
01:02:58Check the date.
01:02:59They got married the first time during Mardi Gras.
01:03:02Roy was obviously publicly intoxicated.
01:03:05We could use that angle.
01:03:06Yeah, the romance is already trending.
01:03:09He made an idiot of himself with that boombox and voters.
01:03:13They're just eating it up.
01:03:16He's catching up in the polls.
01:03:19Now Roy unknowingly marries twice the girl he's been searching for since Mardi Gras.
01:03:25This will make them seem like some faded love story.
01:03:32This will make them seem like some faded love story.
01:03:37We got nothing on him.
01:03:39Honey, we've got everything we need.
01:03:43What they don't know can definitely hurt them.
01:03:46From right now to Griffin Roy, Michelle Lane could be anybody.
01:03:53You would have given Machiavelli a run for his money, my dear.
01:03:57Who?
01:04:01Well, we have a very limited window to make this work.
01:04:05We will hit hard,
01:04:07we'll hit fast.
01:04:12What is she going to say when I tell her I'm married?
01:04:17Alright ladies, good job. That's it for tonight.
01:04:20Remember, this weekend's Mardi Gras.
01:04:22Have fun, but you know what to do if anybody messes with you.
01:04:26Nice work.
01:04:28Hi.
01:04:30Hungry?
01:04:33Yeah, so today's class went super well.
01:04:36Two new students. They really picked up on a lot of things.
01:04:40You're everything I've ever wanted.
01:04:42Everything I didn't even dare to dream.
01:04:44You're it for me. I can't lose you.
01:04:47Griffin, are you okay?
01:04:51Yeah.
01:04:52Just some stuff for the campaign.
01:04:56I want to help.
01:04:58LaRoche can't win.
01:04:59He and Isabel are evil.
01:05:01You're the kind of man that people need.
01:05:03I can't imagine anyone else but myself.
01:05:06I'll come by the campaign office tomorrow.
01:05:08We will plan a siege that surrounds them from all sides.
01:05:13That sounds amazing, Shell.
01:05:22Father?
01:05:26I remember the two of you.
01:05:28You had it, lad. That special spark.
01:05:31I don't see it often in couples, but when I do, it makes an impression.
01:05:36You must be mistaken.
01:05:38This woman and I, we'd met that day.
01:05:40And you were already finishing each other's sentences.
01:05:42Dying to tie the knot. There was no stopping you.
01:05:45I was drunk.
01:05:46Drunk with love.
01:05:48The man I married knew what he was doing.
01:05:51I mean, how is this even legal?
01:05:52New Orleans has a 24-hour waiting period.
01:05:55Unless the judge waives it.
01:05:56Son of a bitch.
01:05:58Who was it?
01:05:59He was your best man.
01:06:00You called him Remy.
01:06:02Remy Cal. That bastard.
01:06:06No wonder he always had that stupid smirk on his face whenever I stood before him in court.
01:06:11Fuck.
01:06:13Fuck.
01:06:17I don't care. I don't care.
01:06:19We need to annul the marriage now.
01:06:21I love my wife.
01:06:22You're in a bit of a pickle.
01:06:24Because in my book, you love Joe the wife as well.
01:06:29Sir.
01:06:31Mrs. Arez in your office with Mr. Durand.
01:06:33Shelby.
01:06:39Griffin, this is the woman you've been looking for.
01:06:41This is Michelle Lane.
01:06:44Hi, Griffin.
01:06:46You might not remember me, but we got married three years ago.
01:06:59So you've been an escort for seven years.
01:07:01That's right. Since high school.
01:07:03And that really is your toddler?
01:07:05My baby girl Fleur.
01:07:06She has no daddy. This will be good for her.
01:07:13If I may ask, how will she pass the DNA test?
01:07:16That is the least of your worries.
01:07:19Alright, chop chop.
01:07:22Now action.
01:07:26Hi, Griffin.
01:07:28You might not remember me, but we got married three years ago.
01:07:31It was Mardi Gras.
01:07:33We were completely wasted, and we ended up in some church with an Irish priest.
01:07:38We had a wild night at the hotel, and well...
01:07:41Fleur was the happy accident nine months later.
01:07:46It can't be true.
01:07:48I've never met you in my life.
01:07:50I mean, you were wearing masks.
01:07:52Yes, that's right. We were.
01:07:54By the time I found out I was pregnant, two months had passed.
01:07:57I've been trying to find you ever since,
01:07:59but it wasn't until I saw one of your ads for Congress that I recognized your voice.
01:08:03It was a miracle.
01:08:05It's too much. She's losing him.
01:08:07Tone it down. Tone it down.
01:08:10Listen, lady, I don't know what you're trying to con with this act.
01:08:13Griffin, don't.
01:08:15But there is no way in hell that I'm married to you.
01:08:19What's going on, Griffin?
01:08:23Is this woman really your wife?
01:08:28No, she's not. We don't know.
01:08:31Which is it?
01:08:33I don't know.
01:08:35I don't know.
01:08:37We don't know.
01:08:39Which is it?
01:08:40You are my wife. Only you.
01:08:44I understand this is a lot to take in.
01:08:46Fleur and I will just go.
01:08:48I'll have my lawyer reach out.
01:08:50No. No lawyers.
01:08:52We don't need to involve any authorities.
01:08:54This can all be solved with a simple DNA test.
01:08:58Pierce, this woman is a fraud.
01:09:01Griffin, think about it.
01:09:02She says Fleur is your daughter.
01:09:04One little test and that'll prove if she's lying or not.
01:09:07We need to know, Griffin.
01:09:09I need to know.
01:09:12Fine. But I don't want these doubts to fester.
01:09:15We can rush the DNA results and get them back in a few hours.
01:09:18Might I suggest a more private setting?
01:09:21Less eyes.
01:09:22Understood.
01:09:24We can wait back at my house for the results to come.
01:09:27We've got him. You're up.
01:09:58Sigh.
01:10:06You kid?
01:10:07Don't.
01:10:09Just don't.
01:10:11Shelby go upstairs?
01:10:13She fed them snacks and then locked herself in the guest room.
01:10:20I can't lose her, Pierce.
01:10:23I won't.
01:10:25DOORBELL RINGS
01:10:33Moment of truth, buddy.
01:10:55Hey, Fleur.
01:10:57Meet your daddy.
01:10:59I will, of course, provide for you both financially.
01:11:04Fleur doesn't need a checkbook. She needs a father.
01:11:23What do you want?
01:11:24The guest bedroom is empty.
01:11:27You and Fleur can stay there.
01:11:31Shelby, just don't do this.
01:11:36Just give me some time. I can fix it.
01:11:39This isn't something you fix.
01:11:42You can't be legally married to two women at the same time and you have a child with one of them.
01:11:48We need to get a divorce.
01:11:52She's right, Griff.
01:11:55Griffin, you have a daughter now.
01:11:58You're a father and you have to put your child first.
01:12:01I can't be Margo.
01:12:04I won't do that to another little girl.
01:12:07I've spent my whole life looking for you.
01:12:12How can I let you go?
01:12:17Sometimes love isn't enough.
01:12:24How'd you know Shelby would leave him because of the kid?
01:12:27Shelby's dedicated her life to saving people. It's not in her nature to put herself first.
01:12:32Oh, you're a scary woman.
01:12:35I know.
01:12:40Hi, I'm Jamie. Nice to meet you.
01:12:43We've been expecting you.
01:12:51So this is what it feels like to have your heart shattered?
01:13:13I'm sorry.
01:13:43That's strange. I thought I heard something.
01:14:14It's like she was never here.
01:14:30Hey, mister. Will you marry me?
01:14:35She took everything but left this behind.
01:14:39She took everything but left this behind.
01:14:42Message received, Shelby.
01:14:54What the hell is this?
01:14:57I know this sounds crazy and there's no time to explain, but if you help me, I promise a generous reward once I get my inheritance.
01:15:05This place is insane. The owner must really trust you.
01:15:12Could it be?
01:15:25It's her. It's always been her.
01:15:29Yeah, it went better than I expected.
01:15:32Yeah, it went better than I expected. As soon as he saw the forged DNA test, it was a done deal.
01:15:37Who is she working for?
01:15:39How long am I supposed to stay here while you take care of Shelby?
01:15:42Give me a name. Come on, just one name.
01:15:45Mrs. LaRoche, that's cutting it close. I want to be long gone when he finds out she's dead.
01:15:51Where is Shelby? Where is my wife?
01:15:55Where is Isabel taking me?
01:15:57I don't know what you're talking about.
01:15:59You're going to be put away for the rest of your life and your daughter will grow up in a fucking orphanage.
01:16:04I don't know where she is. If I knew, I'd tell you, I swear.
01:16:21What is wrong with me?
01:16:25Help! Somebody help!
01:16:30Do you need some water?
01:16:32Oh wait, I see you already have some.
01:16:35You poisoned me? Why?
01:16:38Why? Why? Where to begin?
01:16:45Lingering high school issues, offs. I'm helping Neville's campaign, duh.
01:16:51But the real reason, the one that cuts deep, is to make Griffin Roy think he's a bigamist.
01:16:58By the time he figures out he married the same woman twice, he'll have gone missing, vanished without a trace.
01:17:08He'll be forced to withdraw from the race.
01:17:10Later, when an anonymous tip tells the police where to find your body, suspicion will follow Griffin for the rest of his life.
01:17:18Any political future he may have had will be as dead as you.
01:17:22Net?
01:17:24Back up. Married? Twice?
01:17:29Who's the... the woman in the little girl?
01:17:33Oh, just some cheap whore I hired to tell your husband that they've been married for the past three years.
01:17:40When really, it's been you all along.
01:17:44You've been searching for each other all this time, but now he'll never find you.
01:17:51Alright boys, she's all yours.
01:17:59I told you I'd get you back.
01:18:06Miss Tudor, why are you here?
01:18:09My daughter, my baby Cece, I'm scared she's gonna do something terrible.
01:18:15What do you mean, terrible? What's going on?
01:18:17I sold everything to get her out on bail and you... what does she do in return?
01:18:23She's... she's gone crazy.
01:18:25She's stalking Shelby.
01:18:27She tailed her to some hotel in the French Quarter.
01:18:33What hotel?
01:18:35Excuse me, sir. My sister's staying here, but I've forgotten her room number.
01:18:39Is Shelby Trudeau?
01:18:41Sorry, ma'am. We can't disclose any guest information.
01:18:51Shelby.
01:18:54Come out, come out, wherever you are.
01:19:05I think I'll do it with my bare hands. Makes it more personal.
01:19:12Actually, do me a favor. Leave a lot of marks on that vase of hers.
01:19:17Fuck you. I want people to see that she's suffered. A lot.
01:19:22Oh, trust me. She will. Come on, let's get this party started.
01:19:35Look what you've done.
01:19:39Pansy-ass slap.
01:19:42She's stalling and you're falling for it.
01:19:45Damn. Can't go to the valet smelling like a dive bar.
01:19:49I'll never give you your car keys.
01:19:51Shelby has clothes over there.
01:19:53James.
01:19:55I'll take care of me.
01:19:57I'll take care of you.
01:19:59Shelby has clothes over there.
01:20:01James.
01:20:03I'll take care of me. You go take care of her.
01:20:11Found it, Griff. Shelby Trudeau changed her name to Michelle Lane.
01:20:15It was after her parents divorced at her mother's request.
01:20:18She only returned to her original name after her mother passed three years ago.
01:20:25Starting to make sense now.
01:20:27It was harder on my mom.
01:20:29She didn't want anything to do with him, so I cut him off too.
01:20:32Even started using my mom's maiden name.
01:20:35She's the one you've been looking for. It's been her all this time.
01:20:39How could I be so blind?
01:20:41Of course it had to be Shelby. It had to be her.
01:20:44My heart knew what my brain couldn't see.
01:20:48I got it. Your girl's in room 801.
01:20:52Thanks, man.
01:20:54Now I gotta go save the love of my life.
01:21:02Too much to drink.
01:21:04It hurts.
01:21:11Stop right there.
01:21:18Not so fast.
01:21:21Griff and fucking Roy.
01:21:24Finally joined the party.
01:21:26I'm here for my wife.
01:21:28Not gonna happen, bro.
01:21:30What you've done here is aggravated assault.
01:21:33But if you leave this hotel with her, it's kidnapping.
01:21:36That is a federal crime. Don't bring in the FBI.
01:21:40Someone will have to be around to identify us.
01:21:43That sure as hell won't be you.
01:21:47Did you get all that, Pierce?
01:21:49On your way. Hang in there, buddy.
01:21:53You're not getting out of here alive, Roy.
01:22:13Give me my wife back now!
01:22:20No!
01:22:31Shelby, are you all right?
01:22:49No!
01:23:08Griff, my God. Do you need medical attention?
01:23:11No, but they do.
01:23:20I guess I renewed my man card.
01:23:23Sure did, honey. Fucked them up real good.
01:23:28Oh, Lord, please tell me there's something other than fatigues and combat boots in this thing.
01:23:41Shelby! You little bitch!
01:23:44Didn't I say I'd come back here and settle the score?
01:23:49What? That's not Shelby!
01:23:54Put your hands up or I can see them.
01:24:01This is the last one.
01:24:02Hey, hey, hey. I want to make a deal.
01:24:04What do you have to offer up?
01:24:06Congressman Neville LaRoche.
01:24:08I'm all ears.
01:24:16Is it really over?
01:24:18Yeah, it is.
01:24:20Griffon, Isabel said something, and I want to believe it, but three years ago, did we...
01:24:30You left us.
01:24:38It's true.
01:24:41I can't believe I finally found you.
01:24:44I looked for you in the face of every woman I ever met.
01:24:48Why'd you never come back?
01:25:06It's called a walk of shame, not a laugh of it.
01:25:10Mind your own business, Cece.
01:25:12Look at you, Shelby.
01:25:14One Mardi Gras hookup and you think you found happily ever after.
01:25:18That's not how life works.
01:25:20Sure, he may have liked you with a mask on, but he's not going to want you with it off.
01:25:25Look, you both have a great memory now.
01:25:28But you'll look back and you'll see that you're just the clueless chick who didn't know the score.
01:25:34You'll embarrass yourself.
01:25:36And more importantly, you'll embarrass him.
01:25:44I waited in that hotel for two days.
01:25:47I'm sorry I let her get to me.
01:25:49But to be honest, what we had seemed too good to be true.
01:25:53How often do people fall in love with someone without ever seeing their face?
01:25:57Exactly.
01:26:01But I did.
01:26:03And I do.
01:26:05Where do we go from here?
01:26:07Married twice, deeply in love, risked our lives to save each other.
01:26:12I'd say we live happily ever after.
01:26:17Shelby, will you?
01:26:19Yes, Griffin Roy.
01:26:25I will always love you.
01:26:27In this life or the next.
01:26:30Everything.
01:26:33Every part of me, I'm yours.
01:26:41Stay in your lane.
01:26:42Do what you're told and get paid.
01:26:44That's it.
01:26:45I told you I'm not doing the clinical trial.
01:26:47And we don't have that kind of money.
01:26:50Fake relationship?
01:26:53You're firing me.
01:26:54Until you get married or produce an heir, you are relieved of your CEO duties.
01:26:59So phase one, introduce me to your grandfather as your girlfriend.
01:27:03He's gonna really need to buy it.
01:27:05Nathan?
01:27:06If his grandpa sees through our little act, I can kiss the money goodbye.
01:27:14I didn't see anything.
01:27:16Do you think your grandpa bought the fake proposal?
01:27:19You were pretty convincing.
01:27:22I'm doing this for my sister.
01:27:24But gosh, he's so hot.
01:27:28There's a lot of stuff that needs to happen before we get to the...
01:27:31The baby?
01:27:33I'm starting to want this to be real.
01:27:35So I can be real.
01:27:45I need this girl to be classy.
01:27:48Most importantly, she needs to be educated.
01:27:50She needs to be able to hold a conversation and not embarrass herself in front of a crowd.
01:27:55Do you have a girl like that for me?
01:27:57Mr. Reid, I can find you any girl you need.
01:28:01For the right price.
01:28:04Of course.
01:28:06How much?
01:28:08So let me get this straight.
01:28:10You need a girl who can fake marry you for one year,
01:28:13move into your mansion and play wife,
01:28:15and on top of all that, give you a baby.
01:28:17Correct.
01:28:18No love, no sex, no...
