00:00:00Hi. I'm looking for my fiancé. His name is Ken Snyder. What room is he in?
00:00:29I'm sorry, miss. I can't provide the information of our guests, even if he is your fiancé.
00:00:35Listen, I know for a fact that he's upstairs screwing another woman.
00:00:40I'm going to tell you something else. That woman is probably my half-sister.
00:00:44I'm supposed to get married to him next week, and we haven't even had sex because he said that he's saving himself for marriage.
00:00:50Now, I need concrete evidence that this asshole is cheating on me, so what do you say?
00:00:55Can you help us this trial?
00:00:59You didn't get this from me.
00:01:00Of course not.
00:01:06Oh, man. I wish I could go with her.
00:01:10Oh, baby. I'm coming. Oh, yeah.
00:01:20Oh, my God, baby. That was so good.
00:01:23Gosh, but it just makes me even more pissed knowing that you're getting married to Serena next week.
00:01:28I really can't stand the thought of you having sex with her.
00:01:31How are you going to get out of fucking her now?
00:01:33I know, sweetheart, but I'm doing this for us.
00:01:36Serena's mother stated in her will that she has to be married by 28 to take over the company.
00:01:41She's turning 28 in a week.
00:01:43This is just temporary.
00:01:45Once I take her company, I'll divorce her.
00:01:48Then you and I can be together.
00:01:50You promise?
00:01:51I promise you.
00:01:53I won't touch her.
00:01:54I'll just tell her I can't get it up or something.
00:01:58You two are just disgusting.
00:02:00Here, take a shower.
00:02:02What the fuck, Serena? What the hell are you doing here?
00:02:05You're asking me that after I catch you in bed with my fiancé?
00:02:08Really, Carol?
00:02:09You're asking me that after I catch you in bed with my fiancé?
00:02:12And Ken, my sister?
00:02:14Get off your high horse, Serena.
00:02:16Your father-in-law arranged this.
00:02:18I don't care.
00:02:19I don't care.
00:02:20I don't care.
00:02:21I don't care.
00:02:22I don't care.
00:02:23I don't care.
00:02:24I don't care.
00:02:25Get off your high horse, Serena.
00:02:27Your father arranged our engagement so you can keep your mother's company.
00:02:30It's not like we're in love.
00:02:31That may be true, but I did trust you.
00:02:33I'm not marrying a cheater.
00:02:35The engagement is off.
00:02:37Good luck finding a husband in less than a week.
00:02:39You can say goodbye to your company.
00:02:42What the fuck, Serena?
00:02:44I'm never letting go of my mother's company.
00:02:47Ever.
00:02:48Test me again, and you'll see what I'm capable of.
00:02:55That bitch.
00:03:01Lynn, can you meet me at the Ross Hotel bar?
00:03:04Now.
00:03:07And then he has the audacity to tell me I'm a boner, too.
00:03:11Okay, Serena, I get it.
00:03:13You got cheated on.
00:03:14But honestly, drinking is not going to help.
00:03:17Something else will.
00:03:20What are you talking about, Lynn?
00:03:21I got you a surprise.
00:03:23It's waiting for you in room 1011.
00:03:25Or should I say, he is.
00:03:30Did you get me an escort?
00:03:38Did you get me an escort?
00:03:41Lynn, I don't need an escort.
00:03:44What I need right now is to find a way that I'm going to get married in a week
00:03:47so I can take over my mother's company.
00:03:49Come on, Serena, you're too stressed.
00:03:51You need to let loose, have some fun first.
00:03:55I think our ideas of fun don't align.
00:03:59Just go, have some fun with him, and relax in 1011.
00:04:03Trust me.
00:04:04Go, go.
00:04:09This is crazy.
00:04:10Knock when you get there.
00:04:12He'll be waiting for you.
00:04:14Check out his at 11am.
00:04:16Enjoy.
00:04:18This is fucking crazy.
00:04:36It's you.
00:04:43What's your name again?
00:04:48It's you.
00:04:49Wow, where did Lynn find you?
00:04:59How did you find me?
00:05:01I didn't find you, Lynn did.
00:05:08Hello?
00:05:09You there yet?
00:05:10Yeah, and he is super hot.
00:05:14Thank you, bestie.
00:05:16Have fun.
00:05:19How did you even...
00:05:20Shh.
00:05:21Just...
00:05:22No talking.
00:05:23Let's just enjoy each other's company tonight.
00:05:36Hello?
00:05:37What do you mean no show?
00:05:38She said she was there already.
00:05:39Well, I've been here for 30 minutes and no one is here.
00:05:42I'm leaving.
00:05:43I'm charging you a $500 cash laser fee.
00:05:45Goodbye.
00:05:47Hello?
00:05:48If she's not there, then where the hell is she?
00:05:51Okay, one second.
00:06:13God, what happened last night?
00:06:44I have to get out of here.
00:06:47Leaving without telling me your name again?
00:06:52Again?
00:06:54Again?
00:06:56Um, I've never actually done this before.
00:07:00I know it's been five years, but does she really not remember me?
00:07:06I'm sorry.
00:07:07I'm sorry.
00:07:08I'm sorry.
00:07:09I'm sorry.
00:07:10I'm sorry.
00:07:11Does she really not remember me?
00:07:14Empty your pockets, pretty boy.
00:07:15Alright, easy, easy, easy, easy, easy.
00:07:20Your phone, too.
00:07:24Your jacket.
00:07:25That's real nice.
00:07:26I want that, too.
00:07:28Really?
00:07:30I'm sorry.
00:07:31Oh.
00:07:32Ouch.
00:07:33You got jumped, huh?
00:07:34Yeah.
00:07:35Was it because you were wearing expensive clothes?
00:07:40No, I can't.
00:07:41Just take it.
00:07:42My friend's around the corner.
00:07:49Oh, I'm sorry.
00:07:50I'm sorry.
00:07:51I'm sorry.
00:07:52I'm sorry.
00:07:53I'm sorry.
00:07:54I'm sorry.
00:07:55I'm sorry.
00:07:56I'm sorry.
00:07:57I'm sorry.
00:07:59Oh, and next time you're in the neighborhood, don't wear nice stuff.
00:08:02You're going to get targeted.
00:08:04Hey, what's your name again?
00:08:13Thank you for a loving night, and I should be going.
00:08:19Wow, it really is you.
00:08:22Smile for the camera, sis.
00:08:26Smile for the camera, sis.
00:08:28I heard you were drinking yourself to death at the bar downstairs.
00:08:32Looks like you had some fun.
00:08:34I can already see the headlines now.
00:08:36Heiress of Monroe Construction cheats on her fiancé with a cowboy?
00:08:42Who are you to talk about cheating?
00:08:43I just caught you in bed with my fiancé.
00:08:45Yeah, well, nobody knows about that, do they?
00:08:48Just wait until I upload these photos.
00:08:49You will never be named CEO.
00:08:52What the fuck are you doing?
00:08:54Are you an idiot?
00:08:55I've already uploaded all these to iCloud.
00:08:58Hmm, what a coincidence.
00:09:01So have I.
00:09:04You sneaky bitch!
00:09:06At least I have clothes on.
00:09:07What do you think is going to be worse?
00:09:09Your nudes with Ken?
00:09:10Or me just in a room with men?
00:09:14I'm telling father about this.
00:09:15This is not the last time.
00:09:18I'm telling father about this.
00:09:20This is not the last of me.
00:09:28I'm sorry you had to see that.
00:09:30But nice move, not gonna lie.
00:09:32You handled it well.
00:09:34Is it true you have a fiancé?
00:09:36Ex-fiancé?
00:09:39Ken Snyder?
00:09:40The heir of Snyder Electronics?
00:09:42That's the one.
00:09:43I'm taking over my mother's company in three days
00:09:45and that's all he really cares about.
00:09:47Well, that Snyder guy would be a fool
00:09:49to care more about a company than you.
00:09:52Well, anyway,
00:09:54thank you for helping me out.
00:09:57My name is Serena Monroe.
00:09:58What's yours?
00:09:59Jesse.
00:10:00Jesse Ross.
00:10:04As in CEO of Ross Architecture and Construction?
00:10:08Jesse Ross.
00:10:09As in CEO of Ross Architecture and Construction?
00:10:20Hey, Mom.
00:10:23How are you?
00:10:26Better now that you're here.
00:10:37The Rosses just won't give up, will they?
00:10:40I told them a million times to leave us alone.
00:10:42You're sick for God's sake.
00:10:44They don't care, sweetie.
00:10:46All the Rosses see is a great opportunity
00:10:50to acquire a blooming company from a dying woman.
00:10:54Don't say that, Mom.
00:10:56Don't worry, Serena.
00:10:57I'm leaving the company to you.
00:11:00Even if it's the last thing that I do.
00:11:03It's too hard to do alone.
00:11:05Promise me that you'll find someone kind.
00:11:09Someone you trust.
00:11:11Marry him and take over the company when you turn 28.
00:11:17And keep our legacy.
00:11:20No, just don't leave me, Mom.
00:11:21Promise me, Serena.
00:11:24I promise.
00:11:26I promise.
00:11:42Jessie Ross.
00:11:44Stay the fuck away from me.
00:11:46I'm sorry, did I say something?
00:11:48My mother was Pauline Monroe.
00:11:50Seven years ago, your family tried to get her to sell her company
00:11:54while she was dying from cancer.
00:11:55Okay, hold on a second.
00:11:57What are you talking about?
00:11:58My mother's company was her life's work.
00:12:00And you tried to steal it from her.
00:12:02And that killed her.
00:12:09Serena, wait.
00:12:10What?
00:12:11And don't say you're sorry.
00:12:13That's not going to bring her back.
00:12:16I'm not Jessie Ross.
00:12:19What do you mean you're not Jessie Ross?
00:12:21I mean, I'm not that Jessie Ross.
00:12:23I mean, it's a pretty common name, no?
00:12:25How can I forget?
00:12:27He's an escort.
00:12:28How could he be that Jessie Ross?
00:12:30Right, totally.
00:12:33That name is just really triggering for me.
00:12:37Besides, this is the Ross Hotel.
00:12:39If you were the real Jessie Ross,
00:12:41somebody would have recognized you.
00:12:43Oh, good morning, Mr. Ross.
00:12:50How did she know who you are?
00:12:54I work at this hotel quite often.
00:12:57I mean, I work at many different hotels.
00:12:59Of course, of course.
00:13:01Due to your profession, I'm sure you have to do this a lot.
00:13:04Anyway, speaking of that, did Leonardi pay you?
00:13:08Excuse me?
00:13:09Oh, oh my god, I'm so sorry.
00:13:12Two grand should be enough, right?
00:13:15And keep the change.
00:13:22Bye.
00:13:25Hold on, does she think I'm an escort?
00:13:28Have a good rest of your day.
00:13:30Um, do you want me to call you an Uber or something?
00:13:34No, that's all right. I'll take the subway.
00:13:37Subway? Isn't he the owner of this hotel?
00:13:40Well, um, thanks for the great night.
00:13:43Bye.
00:13:44Bye.
00:13:45Bye.
00:13:46Bye.
00:13:47Bye.
00:13:48Bye.
00:13:49Bye.
00:13:50Bye.
00:13:51Bye.
00:13:52Bye.
00:13:53Bye.
00:13:54Bye.
00:13:55Bye.
00:13:56Thanks for the great night.
00:13:58You're welcome.
00:13:59Bye.
00:14:00Bye.
00:14:12Morning, boss.
00:14:19Got some news for you.
00:14:22The franchise mall is delayed in construction again.
00:14:25Same problem?
00:14:26The taco stand lady refuses to leave.
00:14:29We'll have to forcibly remove her if we want to continue construction.
00:14:36All right, let's go.
00:14:46Hey, so I'm going to need this whole truck removed.
00:14:49You listen to me, you copper asshole.
00:14:52I'm not going nowhere, okay?
00:14:54I've been here for over ten years.
00:14:56And if you want me to go, it's going to be over my dead body.
00:15:00Okay?
00:15:01How much would it cost to buy out the entire business?
00:15:04What?
00:15:05I mean, everybody has a price, right?
00:15:07You asshole.
00:15:08You think everything can be bought with money?
00:15:16To be with somebody all night is foul.
00:15:18It's absolutely foul.
00:15:19I don't know where she found this person.
00:15:21Shameless bitch.
00:15:23Carol told us that you were out the whole night at a hotel with another man.
00:15:28You have tarnished our family's name.
00:15:33Monroe is my family name.
00:15:36You're just a homewrecker turned stepmom,
00:15:38living in the house that my mom bought with the money that my mom earned.
00:15:43So I suggest you shut your mouth,
00:15:46or I swear I'll do it for you.
00:15:49Look at your daughter.
00:15:53How dare you talk to us like that?
00:15:55You're the one out there with every man you could scoop up on the street.
00:15:59Go back to Ken.
00:16:00Apologize and beg his forgiveness.
00:16:03Yeah.
00:16:04I'll do that, Dad.
00:16:06When pigs fly.
00:16:07Are you crazy, Serena?
00:16:09You cannot take over this company until you are married.
00:16:13How do you expect me to do that?
00:16:15I'm not going to do it.
00:16:16I'm not going to do it.
00:16:17I'm not going to do it.
00:16:18I'm not going to do it.
00:16:19I'm not going to do it.
00:16:20You cannot take over this company until you are married.
00:16:23How do you expect to find a husband in the next few days?
00:16:26Oh, don't you worry. I will.
00:16:28It just won't be the guy that cheated on me
00:16:32with my own sister.
00:16:34What?
00:16:40You're a homewrecker.
00:16:42Like mother, like daughter.
00:16:44You sneaky bitch.
00:16:46I was just keeping Ken company.
00:16:48You were the one who was out with a cowboy all night.
00:16:51At least he was nice and honest.
00:16:54You guys?
00:16:56You guys are just a bunch of money-hungry vultures
00:16:58feasting off of what my mom left behind.
00:17:05That's your daughter.
00:17:07She should be locked up.
00:17:09You're both right.
00:17:19I won't let them take your company, Mom.
00:17:22I promise.
00:17:24Okay.
00:17:32Where are you, Serena?
00:17:34I don't want to talk about last night.
00:17:36We will talk about it, Serena.
00:17:37But I'm actually calling as your assistant now.
00:17:39You should be meeting the chief designer of construction
00:17:41at Future Mall for the construction site right now.
00:17:44Oh, shit.
00:17:45I completely forgot.
00:17:47I'm on my way.
00:17:50Nice.
00:17:52Esta troza is all yours, sir.
00:18:00God bless you.
00:18:05Hey, can you move this truck?
00:18:09I can use a drink.
00:18:12Hi.
00:18:14Do you guys have water here?
00:18:16It's you.
00:18:18Oh.
00:18:20I didn't take you as a taco stand kind of guy.
00:18:23You're going to kill yourself doing all these jobs.
00:18:25Yeah, usually I can handle this type of stuff,
00:18:28but I'm especially tired after last night.
00:18:32No, not today.
00:18:34I'm not doing that.
00:18:35Anyways, what can I help you with, Miss Monroe?
00:18:39You can call me Serena.
00:18:41I was actually supposed to meet someone here,
00:18:43but it looks like I am late,
00:18:45so I think they already left.
00:18:47Somebody that keeps you waiting?
00:18:50I think you're worth the wait.
00:18:52Hold on a second.
00:18:54You might actually be the perfect...
00:18:56Hey, Jesse, are you married?
00:18:58No.
00:18:59Girlfriend?
00:19:00No.
00:19:01Situationship with different women?
00:19:03Of course not.
00:19:05Okay, perfect.
00:19:08Let's go.
00:19:11Where are we going?
00:19:13City Hall.
00:19:14We're going to get married.
00:19:21Well, it's official.
00:19:23We're married.
00:19:25Kind of weird now that I say it out loud.
00:19:27I don't know.
00:19:28I think it sounds just right to me.
00:19:32Well, now that the marriage part is over,
00:19:34let's talk business.
00:19:36I'm going to deposit 10K on this card every month,
00:19:39and that is your salary for playing my husband.
00:19:43You know I'll marry you for free?
00:19:46Come on, Jesse.
00:19:47You barely know me.
00:19:49I know you well enough to know that I like you.
00:19:55Just take it, Jesse.
00:19:58I can't have you working in the hotels,
00:20:01if you know what I mean.
00:20:04I...
00:20:07All right.
00:20:08You're right.
00:20:10A gentleman never argues with a lady.
00:20:13Great.
00:20:14Oh, I have to go, but keep your phone on you,
00:20:18and I look forward to working with you, Jesse Ross.
00:20:22You as well, Serena Monroe.
00:20:28We need to stop talking about her,
00:20:30because I'm just a little bit over it.
00:20:32Oh, Mike.
00:20:36What are you doing here?
00:20:38You should be on your knees at Ken's house
00:20:40begging him to take you back.
00:20:42Ken probably kicked her out.
00:20:44That's why she's groveling back to us.
00:20:46Funny, coming from the woman
00:20:47who had her hands down his pants this morning.
00:20:49How dare you insult my baby girl,
00:20:52you wretched child.
00:20:54Well, I wouldn't have to if your baby girl
00:20:56wasn't such a liar and a man-stealer.
00:20:59You're just jealous that Ken chose me.
00:21:01And now without a husband,
00:21:02you're freaking out about the CEO title.
00:21:04I'm glad you mentioned it,
00:21:06because I have something to show you guys.
00:21:12Is...
00:21:14Is that...
00:21:16a marriage certificate?
00:21:18You're married?
00:21:22You're married?
00:21:23Who the hell is this guy?
00:21:26That is none of your business.
00:21:30Wait a minute, Jesse Ross?
00:21:33Wait, isn't he the billionaire?
00:21:35Oh, snap out of your daydream.
00:21:37It's not that, Jesse Ross.
00:21:39As if a billionaire CEO would be interested in you.
00:21:43Let me guess.
00:21:45Is it the call boy from the hotel the other night?
00:21:48Sorry.
00:21:50Homeless.
00:21:52So what if it is?
00:21:56It's my marriage. Why do you care?
00:21:59Are you insane?
00:22:01You are the CEO-to-be of Monroe Construction.
00:22:04What can this loser do for our company?
00:22:07Huh? He's got no connections.
00:22:08He's got no money. He's got nothing.
00:22:10Work is work. Marriage is marriage.
00:22:13If all you're concerned about is money,
00:22:15I'll get you the money.
00:22:16Listen to yourself.
00:22:17What do you think? Money grows on trees?
00:22:20You file for divorce right now,
00:22:23or you never set foot in this house again.
00:22:26Works for me.
00:22:28I don't want to see your faces anyway.
00:22:30I was just here to show you the certificate.
00:22:33Serena!
00:22:37Everything just went so unexpected, Serena.
00:22:40You've been sitting like this all morning, boss.
00:22:42Has something happened?
00:22:44Yeah.
00:22:46This happened.
00:22:48Oh, my.
00:22:49I got married last night.
00:22:50To that girl.
00:22:52The girl that got you the wool coat?
00:22:54That's amazing, boss.
00:22:56What did you say whenever you told her
00:22:58you'd been looking for her for the last five years?
00:23:00I didn't tell her.
00:23:02What? Why?
00:23:04She's not just a random girl.
00:23:07She's Serena Monroe.
00:23:09The heiress of Monroe Construction
00:23:11and daughter of...
00:23:12Pauline Monroe.
00:23:14And she thinks that my family killed her mother.
00:23:16And to be honest with you, I don't blame her.
00:23:18But it was your uncle who insisted
00:23:20on going after her mother.
00:23:21You were only 23.
00:23:22You weren't even CEO yet.
00:23:23I know, Cooper, but I'm still a Ross.
00:23:25It doesn't change anything.
00:23:26That's why I don't want her to know who I am.
00:23:28Just not right now.
00:23:29Okay, well, I have to say, boss,
00:23:31I don't think this is a very good idea.
00:23:36Okay, well, I have to say, boss,
00:23:38I don't think this is a very good idea.
00:23:40She's been on my mind all these years.
00:23:42I like her.
00:23:44I want to have a chance to get to know her better
00:23:46and to be around her, but I can't do that
00:23:48if she knows who I am.
00:23:50Before she sees me as the Jesse Ross,
00:23:52I need a chance to show her who I really am.
00:24:01Morning, Serena.
00:24:03Hey, where are you?
00:24:04Uh, I am at the construction site
00:24:07selling tacos.
00:24:09Again?
00:24:10Yeah, I need to pay the rent.
00:24:12Well, I'm your new boss now.
00:24:14I sent you an address.
00:24:16Can you come now?
00:24:17Yes, of course.
00:24:18I will be there soon, boss.
00:24:22I gotta get going.
00:24:24And what about your meeting in 30 minutes?
00:24:26Push it back.
00:24:27My only priority right now is Serena Monroe.
00:24:33This is not gonna end well.
00:24:40Tom?
00:24:42Looking amazing as ever.
00:24:44Thank you, Ms. Monroe.
00:24:46So nice to see you.
00:24:48Mwah.
00:24:49Mwah.
00:24:50Your dress is ready. I'll be right back.
00:24:52Oh, actually, it's my husband who is coming in today.
00:24:55Oh.
00:24:56He needs some decent clothes, some shoes,
00:24:58and definitely a new watch.
00:25:00That's great.
00:25:01Although I'm not sure I can handle all of that today.
00:25:04Um, but...
00:25:05Oh.
00:25:06Oh, sorry.
00:25:07I'm late.
00:25:08Ms. Monroe, why didn't you tell me
00:25:10that your husband was, um...
00:25:12Uh...
00:25:15So handsome.
00:25:17Very nice to meet you.
00:25:19Jesse Ross.
00:25:21Wow, I have never been to a store like this.
00:25:23I mean, it must be so expensive.
00:25:26Baby, we don't have to do this if you don't wanna...
00:25:29Oh, don't worry about it.
00:25:31I want to.
00:25:35So, can you get his measurements?
00:25:37There's no need.
00:25:41I'm sorry.
00:25:42What I mean is that, you know,
00:25:44I've been doing this for so many years.
00:25:47I can just take one look at him
00:25:48and know exactly what he needs.
00:25:51See, this is why we come here,
00:25:53because Tom is the expert of all experts.
00:25:56Right, okay.
00:25:57Oh, well, then, Mr. Ross,
00:25:59why don't you come in the back
00:26:01and I will show you some suits?
00:26:04Great.
00:26:05I will be waiting outside the sitting room.
00:26:12What is going on?
00:26:13Thank you for covering for me.
00:26:15Look, you have an entire rack of suits here
00:26:17that have been custom-tailored for you.
00:26:19Pick three, and we'll try them on.
00:26:22Oh, okay.
00:26:24What did we say?
00:26:29Okay.
00:26:43Hmm.
00:26:45Actually, not bad.
00:26:47Hmm.
00:26:54I like this one, too.
00:27:01What is this magic?
00:27:03Everything fits you like a glove.
00:27:05Trade secret.
00:27:13Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:27:15Excuse me. Sorry.
00:27:16Oh, that's okay.
00:27:18I think that we will take all three of them.
00:27:23Oh, yes, um...
00:27:26Uh, actually, today is our annual sale.
00:27:3050% off everything that you've purchased today.
00:27:33Half-off?
00:27:34Tom, you never have sales.
00:27:37Why don't I just go wrap this up for you?
00:27:41Okay.
00:27:44I promise that when I make enough money,
00:27:47I will pay you back.
00:27:49You don't have to pay me back.
00:27:51You're my husband.
00:27:53At least not with money.
00:27:56You know, no one's ever given me that nice of gifts before.
00:28:00Thank you, Serena.
00:28:01Of course.
00:28:02You're my husband now.
00:28:03I want to take care of you.
00:28:05Plus, it's not every day that you see a guy
00:28:07look this good in a suit.
00:28:11Actually, I'm not sure I want to take care of you.
00:28:14You're my husband.
00:28:15I want to take care of you.
00:28:17You're my husband.
00:28:18I want to take care of you.
00:28:20You're my husband.
00:28:21I want to take care of you.
00:28:24Actually, I got you something.
00:28:28Oh wait, hold on, hold on.
00:28:29You first.
00:28:32I know I rushed you into this whole marriage thing,
00:28:35so I thought the least I could do is get you a ring.
00:28:50You know, you didn't rush me into anything.
00:28:54I actually, I need to tell you.
00:28:56If it isn't Serena Monroe.
00:29:01So, you must be the new husband Serena bought.
00:29:05I mean, chose.
00:29:10You must be the new husband Serena bought.
00:29:12Oh, you must be Ken Snyder, the cheating ex-fiance she dumped.
00:29:16Anything, I dumped her first.
00:29:19And I have a big thank you to tell you.
00:29:21Because she's mine now.
00:29:24You must be paying him a lot, Serena.
00:29:27He's extremely committed to the character.
00:29:30Yeah, I'm really committed.
00:29:31And if you'll excuse us, I'm going to take my wife home.
00:29:42You don't even have your own car?
00:29:45You have to drive Serena's.
00:29:47What kind of loser are you?
00:29:50Loser?
00:29:53I've been called worse by better people.
00:30:07Prick.
00:30:22You're welcome.
00:30:23Wow, I can't wait to see what this place looks like.
00:30:30Wait, something feels odd.
00:30:35Well, this is me.
00:30:37Drive home safe.
00:30:40Where do you live?
00:30:41Aren't you going to invite me in for some coffee or something?
00:30:44Fuck, I just pulled over some random neighborhood.
00:30:47I don't actually live here.
00:30:49Where do you live?
00:30:51Which house is yours?
00:30:52Can I have a tour?
00:30:55Yeah, this one.
00:30:57Yeah, let's go.
00:30:59But maybe next time.
00:31:01See, the thing is that I'm renting.
00:31:03I got a lot of roommates.
00:31:04Six guys and me.
00:31:05It gets messy and dirty and...
00:31:07Wait, you're telling me seven people live in this house?
00:31:10Cramped up?
00:31:11Is that even legal?
00:31:12You know, the housing market's like so expensive nowadays, so...
00:31:17Anyways, drive home safe.
00:31:21Okay.
00:31:22Is he hiding another woman in that house?
00:31:28No, really.
00:31:29You can go.
00:31:30I will.
00:31:32As soon as you get inside.
00:31:35Okay.
00:31:45Hi.
00:31:46Give this to yourself.
00:31:50I forgot my keys.
00:31:53What?
00:31:55Six other people live there.
00:31:56Just knock.
00:31:57I'm sure someone's home.
00:32:03Fuck it.
00:32:20Who are you?
00:32:21I'm not buying anything.
00:32:22Go away.
00:32:23Hey, friends.
00:32:25I forgot my keys.
00:32:27If you could just let me inside so we can...
00:32:31Can you just let me inside?
00:32:32I'll play wherever you want.
00:32:34Go away!
00:32:35Hey, what's wrong with you?
00:32:37Go away!
00:32:39Who are you two?
00:32:40I don't know you.
00:32:41Are you sick?
00:32:42Get out!
00:32:43Get out!
00:32:49Excuse me.
00:32:51What...
00:32:52What the fuck is going on?
00:33:02What was that for?
00:33:05Do I need a reason to kiss my wife?
00:33:08What's wrong with your roommate?
00:33:11He said that he is very busy with a girl right now,
00:33:15if you know what I mean,
00:33:16and he asked me to come back later.
00:33:18Wait.
00:33:19You know Chinese?
00:33:20A little.
00:33:21Yeah.
00:33:22I'm not fluent, though.
00:33:23That's kind of cool.
00:33:24But you live here.
00:33:26He can't just treat you like that.
00:33:28Oh, no, no, no.
00:33:29I'm actually going to go to a friend's house,
00:33:31hang out for a little bit,
00:33:32and I'll come back later.
00:33:33There's no worries at all.
00:33:34No.
00:33:35Let's go.
00:33:37To where?
00:33:38You're my husband.
00:33:39I can't let you just live like this.
00:33:41I'm going to buy you a house.
00:33:43Are you serious?
00:33:45Of course.
00:33:46Let's go.
00:33:52I do not like the Rosses,
00:33:54but I do have to admit
00:33:55they have some of the best real estate in the city.
00:33:58This is their new developmental project,
00:34:01and I love it.
00:34:04But $2 million is a big purchase.
00:34:07Purchase?
00:34:08I'll give you this whole neighborhood if you want it.
00:34:11All right, Ms. Monroe.
00:34:13Welcome to the one and only Lawrence Station home.
00:34:16I heard you're interested in purchasing property?
00:34:19Boss?
00:34:23Even this young man thinks you're the boss of the relationship.
00:34:27My wife would like to have a tour of your model home.
00:34:31Certainly.
00:34:32If you'd kindly step into the living room.
00:34:36Ladies first.
00:34:40What are you doing here?
00:34:42You don't remember, boss?
00:34:43You told me to come to the new model home
00:34:45and make sure everything was running smoothly.
00:34:48I can't believe it.
00:34:50I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:34:52Just don't blow my cover.
00:34:54Your secret is safe with me, boss.
00:34:56Always.
00:34:58Funny thing, though.
00:35:01I have another Ms. Monroe on my schedule.
00:35:10Serena?
00:35:12There are 8.5 million people in L.A.
00:35:15How come I keep running into you two cheaters?
00:35:17I'll go wherever I want.
00:35:18What do you think?
00:35:19You own the city?
00:35:21Oh, my God.
00:35:23Did you pay for your own wedding ring yourself?
00:35:25That's the saddest thing I've ever seen, sis.
00:35:27Oh, really?
00:35:28Because I think I'm looking at the saddest thing I've ever seen.
00:35:31Take that back, you bitch.
00:35:34Hey, watch it.
00:35:36You lay one hand on her, you'll regret it for the rest of your life.
00:35:39Take it easy.
00:35:40Take your claws off me, cowboy.
00:35:43What?
00:35:44You think you're all high and mighty?
00:35:46Why don't you scram and go back to where you came from?
00:35:49Cowboy?
00:35:50Anyway, if you two are interested in this unit, you can forget it.
00:35:54Because we're getting it, right, Ken?
00:35:56Anything my baby wants.
00:36:01If you two are interested in this unit, you can forget it.
00:36:04Because we're getting it, right, Ken?
00:36:06Anything my baby wants.
00:36:08Cash.
00:36:09Down payment.
00:36:10Now go get us that contract.
00:36:11Mr. Schneider, I know that there's nothing you can do about your face.
00:36:15What did you just say?
00:36:16But have your parents ever taught you to get in line and wait your turn on the playground?
00:36:21Those rules might apply to your peasant world.
00:36:23Picking up hot dogs.
00:36:25But in this world, my friend, money is the only express pass.
00:36:30Now what are you waiting for?
00:36:32Go fetch my contract.
00:36:34Actually, Mrs. Monroe has already reserved the unit.
00:36:38What?
00:36:39When?
00:36:45Mrs. Monroe has already reserved the unit.
00:36:48What?
00:36:49When?
00:36:50That's impossible.
00:36:51I made that down payment first.
00:36:53Yeah, well, Mrs. Monroe is the CEO of Monroe Construction.
00:36:57And as one of our VIP clients, she can reserve any unit at any time without a down payment.
00:37:04But I wouldn't expect you to know that.
00:37:06Are you insane?
00:37:08Do you know who you're talking to?
00:37:10This is Ken Schneider.
00:37:12Schneider?
00:37:13Oh, I'm afraid I've never heard that name before.
00:37:17Well, if you guys will excuse us, me and Serena have some paperwork we should be signing.
00:37:24Fine.
00:37:25We don't want your fucking model home anyway.
00:37:28Oh, hey Ken.
00:37:30No cussing.
00:37:31My house, my rules.
00:37:33Let's go, Ken.
00:37:39Looks like the express pass didn't work this time.
00:37:46What?
00:37:47Did I say something wrong?
00:37:51Did I say something wrong?
00:37:52That was fucking amazing.
00:37:55Hey, watch your language.
00:37:58I'm too excited.
00:38:00Thank you, but since when did I become a VIP?
00:38:04From the moment you walked in.
00:38:06Well, if you put it that way, I think I need to buy it.
00:38:10Ah, and we're having a half-off sale because it's a model home.
00:38:14You get to keep the furniture, too.
00:38:17Am I dreaming?
00:38:18I have to be dreaming, Jesse.
00:38:19Pinch me.
00:38:21I think this is real, Serena.
00:38:24I'll go fetch the papers.
00:38:27This is amazing.
00:38:33Welcome to your new home, Jesse.
00:38:36How about we call it...
00:38:40...our home.
00:38:44What?
00:38:45What do you mean?
00:38:47I just got this model home for you because I need you to move in ASAP.
00:38:51Look, it's already furnished and everything.
00:38:53I know, it's so spacious, but I want to live here with you.
00:38:58Build a home.
00:39:00Just us.
00:39:02You really want to do that with me?
00:39:04Why do you keep doubting that I want to be with you?
00:39:07I don't know.
00:39:09You really want to do that with me?
00:39:11Why do you keep doubting that I want to be with you?
00:39:15I guess I just haven't felt wanted lately.
00:39:19Well, Serena Monroe, I want you more than anything.
00:39:29This is a pretty big house.
00:39:31Lots of empty rooms.
00:39:33Alright, just so we're clear, I get the master bedroom.
00:39:38Anything you want, sweetheart.
00:39:41Yes, don't touch.
00:39:42Okay.
00:39:43Hello, Matt.
00:39:47It's been such a long day.
00:39:49Are you hungry?
00:39:50I'm starving.
00:39:52I think I know just the place to go.
00:39:56This is my favorite restaurant.
00:39:59They have the best steak in the city.
00:40:01Wow, I cannot imagine what a dish must cost around here.
00:40:04Oh, don't worry about it.
00:40:06Get whatever you want.
00:40:07It's on me anyway.
00:40:09Besides, I saved about a million dollars tonight.
00:40:15Welcome to LaBelle.
00:40:17Good to see you.
00:40:18Pleasure to meet you, sir.
00:40:19My name is Jesse Ross.
00:40:20I'm very excited to be at your establishment for the very first time.
00:40:24Great to have you here, Mr. Ross.
00:40:26I am Leonard, the manager.
00:40:28The lady must be your date for the night.
00:40:30My wife, Miss Serena Monroe.
00:40:33Congratulations on the new marriage.
00:40:36Please, follow me.
00:40:37Wait, how did you know that we recently got married?
00:40:44Wait, how did you know that we recently got married?
00:40:48You know, I've seen so many newly wedded couples come to this place to celebrate.
00:40:52They all have this special glow.
00:40:55Wow, that's very romantic.
00:40:59I guess we do have a lot to celebrate.
00:41:02Perfect.
00:41:03Let me lead you to your table.
00:41:06We have this table for the two of you.
00:41:09Miss Monroe.
00:41:11Perfect.
00:41:22Thank you, sir.
00:41:23You're welcome, sir.
00:41:30Something wrong?
00:41:32No, nothing.
00:41:33Actually, this day has gone by so perfectly, it actually feels unreal.
00:41:40Well, it must be luck.
00:41:43No, it's you.
00:41:47It's you.
00:41:49Ever since I met you, everything just keeps falling into place.
00:41:53You bring so much fortune into my life.
00:41:57I think you're my lucky star, Jesse.
00:42:10To our glow.
00:42:14To our glow.
00:42:19For some reason, I really like having him around.
00:42:24Should I hire him?
00:42:26Do I have something on my face?
00:42:28Um, no.
00:42:30It's not that.
00:42:31I was actually thinking, since you are my lucky star,
00:42:36why don't you come work with me at my company?
00:42:40I could use the luck, and I like having you around.
00:42:47Well, if you say it like that, where do I apply?
00:42:55Oh, there you are.
00:42:56And you're the secret husband she's been hiding from me.
00:43:00He's not just okay, he's hot.
00:43:02Way to go, bro.
00:43:03Lynn?
00:43:04I'm Lynn.
00:43:06Serena's best friend, assistant, therapist.
00:43:10Well, I'm hoping to take some of that responsibility off from now on.
00:43:13I like him.
00:43:15Great, because I brought him here to do an interview with you.
00:43:18An interview for what?
00:43:19Anything.
00:43:21Just find him something to do.
00:43:23No pressure.
00:43:24Just try your best.
00:43:26Wait, Serena.
00:43:27This woman, I swear.
00:43:29I know, right?
00:43:30Well, let's get to it.
00:43:41What are you doing in my office?
00:43:49What are you doing in my office?
00:43:51And get out of my chair.
00:43:52You're getting your stench all over it.
00:43:54Always so high and mighty, aren't we, Serena?
00:43:58I guess you haven't heard the news.
00:44:00The Johnsons decided to pull out of your biggest project in Williamsburg.
00:44:04I guess they don't trust you with their money.
00:44:06No need to be nervous, okay?
00:44:07We'll just chat a bit.
00:44:09Sounds good to me, yeah.
00:44:11So, you have your resume on you?
00:44:12Yeah, I do, yeah.
00:44:14I've done a little bit of this, a little bit of that, but nothing too serious.
00:44:19Serena chose you as her Prince Charming.
00:44:21I'm sure you've done something.
00:44:24Incredible.
00:44:25You went to Harvard?
00:44:26Yes, yeah.
00:44:28You were the chief designer of reconstruction of Shangri-La, Shanghai.
00:44:32That is correct, yeah.
00:44:34And you designed Crazy Maple Plaza in Silicon Valley.
00:44:38You know, with your resume, you could have a job in the industry anywhere in the world.
00:44:44I know.
00:44:46But there's only one Serena Moreau.
00:44:49She's the most important thing to me.
00:44:52That's impossible.
00:44:54I just met with the COO last week.
00:44:57Wait, Ken went to college with him.
00:45:01You two did this.
00:45:03Don't point fingers when you can't even manage your own company.
00:45:07You start as CEO next week.
00:45:10What are you going to do?
00:45:12Well, as her assistant, I should be critical and grill you with more questions.
00:45:18But as her best friend, I feel like she is so lucky to have you.
00:45:26Hey, Serena.
00:45:29Serena's office.
00:45:31Shit, I think I recognize that voice.
00:45:34Carol Monroe.
00:45:36Not you again.
00:45:43You start as CEO next week.
00:45:46You start as CEO next week.
00:45:49What are you going to do?
00:45:51I'll find a solution.
00:45:53I'm not losing the Johnson case.
00:45:55There's a fine line between confidence and stupidity, Serena.
00:45:59You want a piece of free advice? Quit right now.
00:46:02I'll die before I let go of this company.
00:46:06Face it, Serena.
00:46:08Without the Johnson's money, you're going to lose the biggest case of your life.
00:46:11And I don't really think the board is going to be too happy about that.
00:46:15But I'll see if I can have Ken call them to change their minds.
00:46:21And all you'll have to do is get down on your hands and knees and beg me.
00:46:30What's more important to you? Your ego or your dead mother's company?
00:46:35Keep dreaming, Carol.
00:46:38Great. Looking forward to seeing you get fired.
00:46:45Wait.
00:46:56Wait.
00:47:15Don't do it.
00:47:17You again.
00:47:19You know what? Don't steal my line. And how dare you bully my wife like that.
00:47:22I didn't do anything. It's the Johnson's that pulled out of her project.
00:47:26Not anymore.
00:47:32Vincent. It's Jesse. Hello.
00:47:35I'm good, bro. Yeah.
00:47:37Hey, I have a question for you. I heard you were pulling out of the Monroe Project, yeah?
00:47:41Oh, that would be amazing.
00:47:42Hey, I really appreciate it. Thank you so much, all right?
00:47:45All right, we'll talk soon. Be safe. Bye.
00:47:49All taken care of.
00:47:51Serena, you can keep the project.
00:47:53But the Johnson's...
00:47:55The Johnson's just agreed to sell the project for $20 million to Ross the Instruction.
00:47:58And they're going to continue to fund Serena's project.
00:48:00You're lying.
00:48:03Okay, you're lying. The Ross's wouldn't just donate $20 million to some project.
00:48:08You're more than welcome to call Vincent if you'd like yourself.
00:48:10But I doubt you have his phone number.
00:48:13Serena, it's all taken care of.
00:48:16Mark my words, Serena. Your luck will run out soon.
00:48:20And when it does, I'll be in the front row waiting for that day.
00:48:30Did she always say that you were like that?
00:48:35What's wrong? I thought you'd be happy about all this.
00:48:38I am happy that the project is being saved, but I don't know how I feel about it being with Ross's.
00:48:46Serena...
00:48:48Wait, how do you know Vincent Johnson?
00:48:51Oh, shit. What should I tell her?
00:48:53I, uh... I've helped him with some stuff, yeah.
00:49:00Aw, I knew I was right about you, Jesse Ross.
00:49:04Ross, how do you always end up being at the right place at the right time?
00:49:09Oh, that was close.
00:49:11Because I only do it for the right person.
00:49:15Stop, we're at the office.
00:49:20How was your interview, by the way?
00:49:23I don't know. You tell me. How was my performance back there, huh?
00:49:26You're hired as my personal assistant.
00:49:30Perfect. I've been dreaming of this day my whole life.
00:49:35Hey, see you at work.
00:49:38Bye.
00:49:41Cooper! Hey, I wanted to let you know I am stepping away from the company for a little while.
00:49:46What? Why?
00:49:48I accepted a job offer from my wife as her assistant.
00:49:51Wait, what? Your company makes millions of dollars a month and you're tossing it aside for no good reason?
00:49:56Well, I'm doing it to be with Serena. That's the best reason.
00:49:59I'm not tossing it aside. I'm leaving it in your care while I'm gone.
00:50:02Oh, okay, yeah. Easy for you to say, boss.
00:50:06I trust you, Cooper, okay? You can do it.
00:50:09Alright, bye.
00:50:11Wait, hold on a second, boss. Wait.
00:50:28Surprise.
00:50:32Surprise.
00:50:36Did you do all of this?
00:50:39Anything for my wife?
00:50:44Is that my apron?
00:50:48Okay, you can laugh all you want. I am not getting a stain on this shirt.
00:50:53Who says I'm laughing?
00:50:55Actually, I think it is quite sexy.
00:50:59You're the first man who's ever cooked for me.
00:51:02Really? No one's ever done this for you?
00:51:05Men in my world are not like you, Jesse.
00:51:07They wear $5,000 suits, play golf, and they only care about two things.
00:51:13Spending money and how to make more of it.
00:51:17You're full of surprises.
00:51:19You're pretty special.
00:51:24You say the word and I will do this for you every single day.
00:51:29For the rest of your life.
00:51:35For the rest of your life?
00:51:37Or as long as you'll have me.
00:51:40Well, I have to taste test this first.
00:51:44Alright. Ladies first.
00:51:47Fair warning, I'm pretty picky.
00:51:49Don't take my chances.
00:51:57This is amazing.
00:51:59You have a little something.
00:52:05A little something.
00:52:17This is too good to be true.
00:52:21You're too good to be true.
00:52:25I don't want to keep doing this to you.
00:52:28What are you talking about, Serena?
00:52:32I think we should end this.
00:52:34Oh no, did she find out who I am?
00:52:37I think we should end this.
00:52:40I proposed to you only to become CEO and you ended up being so special.
00:52:46Okay, I'm going to stop you right there.
00:52:48Yes, you did ask me to marry you.
00:52:51But have you ever thought about why I said yes?
00:52:54Because I'm paying you?
00:52:55Ten thousand dollars a month is a lot, yes.
00:52:59But it's not enough to make me stay.
00:53:01I stay because I like you.
00:53:04And I'm falling for you, Serena.
00:53:07Really?
00:53:09You're falling for me?
00:53:12Yes.
00:53:14Now.
00:53:17Shall we?
00:53:26So, you can dance.
00:53:28Do you have any other secrets that you're hiding from me, Jesse Rock?
00:53:32I guess we'll find out.
00:53:37Actually, I think I have a secret to tell you.
00:53:44Actually, I have a secret to tell you.
00:53:47I have a secret to tell you.
00:53:54I think I'm falling for you too.
00:53:59Well then, I guess we'll just call it even.
00:54:17Okay.
00:54:39Do you know that when two people look at each other's eyes long enough,
00:54:44their heartbeats synchronize?
00:54:46No way. You just made that up.
00:54:49I'm serious.
00:54:51Feel it.
00:55:01Serena?
00:55:05Do you hate Jesse Ross?
00:55:10Do you hate Jesse Ross?
00:55:11I... I don't know.
00:55:14I know he just recently took over the company a year ago,
00:55:18and it was his uncle Alfred who was going after my mom, not him.
00:55:23But he's still Ross.
00:55:26I don't know if I can look past that.
00:55:29I've never told anybody this,
00:55:32but even though my mom has been gone for five years,
00:55:36even though my mom has been gone for five years,
00:55:40sometimes I pretend she's just traveling,
00:55:46and she'll come back one day.
00:55:49She was the only one that ever truly loved me.
00:55:53That's why I can't let go of this company.
00:55:57If I lose this, then I lose everything of her.
00:56:03I'm sorry that you had to do it alone.
00:56:06It's hard. I'm not alone anymore.
00:56:10I have you.
00:56:13I haven't felt like this in a really, really long time.
00:56:19Like what?
00:56:22Like home.
00:56:37We're going to have to move.
00:56:39If this is what you want to do, you can do that.
00:56:42But you're going to have to move it all the way over.
00:56:44This is the CEO office.
00:56:46Dad, have you ever heard of knocking?
00:56:48You think you're such a hero for securing funds
00:56:51from Ross Construction, do you?
00:56:54Here, why don't you take a look at this.
00:56:56Selena Monroe broke our engagement
00:57:00and then married another man in less than 24 hours.
00:57:03She broke up with me.
00:57:04In less than 24 hours.
00:57:06She broke my heart.
00:57:08Worse than that, she broke my trust.
00:57:10And that is why I am hereby terminating
00:57:13all partnerships with Monroe Constructions.
00:57:15Mr. Smith.
00:57:17He cheats on me first
00:57:19and then he wants to go off about trust.
00:57:21That's funny.
00:57:23I don't care who cheated on whom.
00:57:25You ruined our relationship with Ken
00:57:27and now our business is sinking.
00:57:29Dad, you don't care about the company.
00:57:31You just want the bribe that Ken said he'd give you.
00:57:35How dare you accuse your father of this?
00:57:41How dare you accuse your father of this?
00:57:47Get your hands off me, you asshole.
00:57:49Anyone that hurts Serena, I'll hurt them first.
00:57:51Do you understand? You got two options.
00:57:53You either walk out that door yourself
00:57:55or I'll throw you out, huh?
00:57:57What is it? What are you going to do?
00:58:02That's what I thought.
00:58:05Who the hell is this?
00:58:07Jesse Ross, Serena's husband and personal assistant.
00:58:10You hired him?
00:58:12What is this, a homeless shelter?
00:58:14His resume was approved by HR.
00:58:16He got here fair and square, unlike you
00:58:18who took Mom's seat on the board as soon as she passed.
00:58:21I swear, you mark my words, Serena.
00:58:24You are going to regret losing all the money
00:58:27that you had in projects with Ken.
00:58:29The big board meeting is tomorrow
00:58:31and if you can't dig your way out of this,
00:58:33you can kiss this company goodbye.
00:58:43You okay?
00:58:46Don't worry about it.
00:58:48No, Jesse, he's right.
00:58:50I'm going to lose the company.
00:58:52No, Jesse, he's right.
00:58:54I'm going to lose the company.
00:58:56What are you talking about?
00:58:58You're Serena Marone. You'll figure it out.
00:58:59I know my wife.
00:59:01No, but the board doesn't, Jesse.
00:59:03And if I don't get enough business for the company,
00:59:05they're going to vote me out.
00:59:07I promised my mom and I'm failing her.
00:59:09Look at me.
00:59:11It's going to be okay.
00:59:13I will help you figure this out.
00:59:15We'll figure it out together, all right?
00:59:17The board meeting is in 24 hours, Jesse.
00:59:19No one can fix this.
00:59:23I know one person.
00:59:27I have an idea.
00:59:29And you're not going to like it.
00:59:31You're going to say no.
00:59:33But you've got to hear me out first.
00:59:35You need to call Jesse Ross
00:59:37and set up an in-person meeting with him.
00:59:43You need to call Jesse Ross
00:59:45and set up an in-person meeting with him.
00:59:47That is the only company in this industry
00:59:49that can handle all the properties of Kent's.
00:59:51This could be your only chance
00:59:53to actually save the company's reign.
00:59:55Do you understand?
00:59:57And this could be his shot to right the wrong
00:59:59even if I did call him up.
01:00:01Everyone wants to work with him.
01:00:03Why would he choose me?
01:00:05He's chosen you before.
01:00:07I have a feeling that he could choose you again.
01:00:11I have to step out for a minute.
01:00:13But trust me,
01:00:15call him.
01:00:23What should I do, Mom?
01:00:25Promise me that you'll find someone kind.
01:00:27Someone you trust.
01:00:29And take over the company
01:00:31when you turn 28.
01:00:33Keep our legacy.
01:00:43Hello?
01:00:45Boss, your wife,
01:00:47I mean, Miss Monroe,
01:00:49is on the line.
01:00:51Put her on.
01:00:54Good morning, Mr. Ross.
01:00:55This is Serena Monroe from Monroe Construction.
01:00:58It's a pleasure to hear from you, Miss Monroe.
01:01:00Why does his voice sound so familiar?
01:01:02Is there anything that I can do for you?
01:01:05Yes, actually.
01:01:07Since we are officially doing business together,
01:01:09I think there are a few projects
01:01:11that would be perfect for your company.
01:01:13And I was wondering if you would be interested
01:01:15in meeting tonight in person
01:01:17to discuss our future together.
01:01:20That sounds wonderful.
01:01:22I would love to finally meet you in person, Miss Monroe.
01:01:25Oh, and may I just say,
01:01:27I really admire
01:01:29what you are doing over at that company.
01:01:31I think you're a very bright
01:01:33and strong woman.
01:01:35Thank you, Mr. Ross.
01:01:37Please call me Jesse.
01:01:39See you tonight then, Jesse.
01:01:42Hmm.
01:01:44He's a lot nicer than I thought.
01:01:49This may be my last night with you, Serena, but
01:01:52I'm just going to tell you the truth.
01:01:55And hope for the best.
01:01:59Jesse, I don't know if I can do this.
01:02:01I'm freaking out right now.
01:02:03Look at me.
01:02:05Everything is going to be okay tonight, all right?
01:02:07I promise.
01:02:09How can you be so sure?
01:02:11Because you're amazing, and he will see that.
01:02:13And we're also named Jesse Ross,
01:02:15so I basically know how his brain works.
01:02:17That wasn't scientific at all.
01:02:19But it worked, didn't it?
01:02:21Guess what?
01:02:23I have a surprise for you.
01:02:25Come with me.
01:02:32Where did you find such a place?
01:02:35Well, I know the owner,
01:02:37and he agreed to lend it to me.
01:02:39I mean, I figured we never had a first date,
01:02:41so why not?
01:02:46This is beautiful, Jesse.
01:02:49It really is.
01:02:51Wait, don't move.
01:02:55Why?
01:02:57I'm trying to see if our heartbeats synchronize.
01:03:01And what do you think?
01:03:04I can't tell.
01:03:06It seems like yours is getting faster and faster.
01:03:10And who's fault is it?
01:03:12I don't know.
01:03:19I'm lucky to have found you, Serena.
01:03:22Me too, Jesse.
01:03:24You know, something weird happened earlier
01:03:26when I was on the phone with Jesse Ross.
01:03:29I saw your face.
01:03:36It was like you had some weird familiarity somehow.
01:03:43It must have been a deja vu moment.
01:03:47It must be.
01:03:49Oh, my God.
01:03:51I'm an idiot.
01:03:53Is it finally time?
01:03:55You planned this whole date for us,
01:03:58and here I am talking about another man.
01:04:02I'm so sorry.
01:04:04It's okay.
01:04:06I am just glad to be in this moment with you.
01:04:11Well, see?
01:04:13I'm your wife.
01:04:15You have your whole life to spend with me.
01:04:19And mark my words, Jesse Ross,
01:04:22you're not going to get rid of me that easy.
01:04:24Then I am the luckiest man in the world.
01:04:28I love you.
01:04:31You have no idea how much I wish
01:04:33you'd never know who I really am.
01:04:38I love you too, Jesse.
01:04:48I love you too.
01:05:00Well, I guess we're back where it all started.
01:05:04I guess we are.
01:05:19I'm sorry. I gotta take this.
01:05:22Okay. I'll just meet you out there.
01:05:27Serena?
01:05:32Nothing.
01:05:34Go ahead.
01:05:38Serena, I promise I will tell you everything when I'm done.
01:05:45Alfred?
01:05:46Alfred?
01:05:48Jesse!
01:05:50Did you really think you could keep Serena Monroe
01:05:52a secret from me?
01:05:54Stay out of it.
01:05:56Okay, this is between me and her.
01:05:58Not anymore.
01:06:00Come up to my suite.
01:06:02We need to talk.
01:06:12Okay.
01:06:14Five more minutes.
01:06:17Okay.
01:06:37I thought you were in Europe.
01:06:40You wouldn't return my calls, Jesse.
01:06:43So I thought
01:06:45either you're in trouble
01:06:47or you're hiding something from me.
01:06:49Turns out
01:06:51both my guesses are correct.
01:06:53Me and Serena are married.
01:06:55I'm investing in her project so she can keep her company.
01:06:57You can't do anything about it.
01:07:01You've always been a hopeless romantic, Jesse.
01:07:04And that's the worst quality a CEO can have.
01:07:08Now, don't get me wrong.
01:07:10I'm proud of you
01:07:12and I have Serena Monroe's trust.
01:07:14She never would have agreed to sit down with me.
01:07:16And I do like her projects.
01:07:18But then I thought
01:07:20why fund her when I can take over her entire company?
01:07:25Why fund her when I can take over her entire company?
01:07:28She's given everything for that company.
01:07:30You can't just take it from her.
01:07:32I'm not taking anything.
01:07:34I'm buying.
01:07:36I'm gonna make her a decent offer
01:07:38and if she's smart enough, she'll take it.
01:07:40I'm not gonna let you do that.
01:07:42I know you won't.
01:07:44Which is why I have to do this.
01:07:48Alfred.
01:07:50Alfred!
01:07:52Hey!
01:07:54No, no, no, no!
01:07:56Hey, hey!
01:07:58Alfred! Alfred!
01:08:06I see you've noticed the proposal I drafted for us, Ms. Monroe.
01:08:09Alfred Ross.
01:08:13Alfred Ross.
01:08:15I know you're expecting my nephew.
01:08:17However, I just had a chat with him
01:08:20and unfortunately we were unable to come to terms on our business strategy.
01:08:24Business strategy?
01:08:26Is that what you call trying to force a dying woman
01:08:29to sell her company?
01:08:31I understand your frustration, Ms. Monroe.
01:08:33But I'm a businessman.
01:08:35So is your mother.
01:08:36A successful one, I might add.
01:08:38She knew the rules of the game
01:08:40and so do you.
01:08:42Fuck!
01:08:44Fuck!
01:08:49I don't mean to be rude, Mr. Ross,
01:08:52but it seems that we have too much history
01:08:56to continue this conversation.
01:08:59I'd like to speak with your nephew, if I may.
01:09:02Unfortunately, Jesse is currently occupied.
01:09:03But I assure you, Ms. Monroe, I speak for the both of us.
01:09:07After all,
01:09:10we are family.
01:09:17Jesse's phone.
01:09:20He's your nephew.
01:09:23He's the Jesse Ross.
01:09:28Now, I know all about your sister.
01:09:31Now, I know all about your situation, Ms. Monroe.
01:09:34And I assure you, I have your best solution right here.
01:09:37I'm never selling my company.
01:09:40Especially not to you.
01:09:42I knew you'd say that.
01:09:44To me, it's really all the same.
01:09:47You see, it's simple.
01:09:49Either you sign these papers now and sell to me
01:09:53or tomorrow you get voted out by your board.
01:09:55Your stocks crash and I buy it cheap.
01:09:57Whatever you choose, Ms. Monroe.
01:10:01I'll get what I want.
01:10:08Shit!
01:10:10Hey! Someone let me out!
01:10:14Cooper! How'd you find me?
01:10:16I couldn't reach you, boss, so I tracked your phone to this hotel.
01:10:20I saw your uncle down in the lobby with your phone,
01:10:23so I knew something was off.
01:10:25The front desk told me he checked into this room.
01:10:27Alfred is forcing Serena to sell the company.
01:10:29We need to get down there right now.
01:10:31Okay.
01:10:35So, everything he did was to get close to me.
01:10:41To get my company.
01:10:43Are there any other secrets you're hiding from me, Jesse Ross?
01:10:47I guess we'll find out.
01:10:49You know, something weird happened earlier when I was on the phone with Jesse Ross.
01:10:53I saw your face.
01:10:55Love clouds one's vision.
01:10:57And as you know, in this business, your vision must always be crystal clear.
01:11:04Sign this.
01:11:06You'll get a fair price, board seat, and your share of stocks.
01:11:10Or wait till tomorrow and let your board decide the fate of your company.
01:11:16Like I said, it's really all the same to me.
01:11:19Promise me, Serena, take over the company when you turn 28.
01:11:24And keep our legacy.
01:11:26I'm sorry, Mom.
01:11:28I'm tired.
01:11:35Don't do it, Serena.
01:11:37Jesse, what the hell are you doing?
01:11:39You keep me in the dark.
01:11:41You keep me in the dark.
01:11:43You keep me in the dark.
01:11:44Don't do it, Serena.
01:11:46Jesse, what the hell are you doing?
01:11:48You keep me in a hotel room so you can force Serena to sign an acquisition contract?
01:11:52You gotta stop this, Alfred.
01:11:54It's been five years since you tried to take Serena's mother and make her sign a contract when she was dying of cancer.
01:11:59What, are you gonna do it again?
01:12:01I don't care who I have to lock up and who's dying.
01:12:03This is fucking business and I'd do it all over again for my company.
01:12:07Cooper, you got it?
01:12:09Loud and clear.
01:12:11I don't care who I have to lock up and who's dying.
01:12:12This is fucking business and I'd do it all over again for my company.
01:12:18Now I'm gonna bring that recording to the board of my company.
01:12:21And we're gonna see if your business strategies align with us.
01:12:24But if you want my advice, you better start packing.
01:12:28How dare you?
01:12:30I am your uncle. This is our family business.
01:12:32Not anymore.
01:12:34I'm CEO of Ross Construction and we're gonna do this my way.
01:12:37You know what?
01:12:39You better leave now before I make you.
01:12:43Hold on.
01:12:45You're forgetting something.
01:13:07Serena, Serena, I can explain.
01:13:09No, don't tell me that you can explain.
01:13:11Weren't you lucky that I happened to stumble into the wrong hotel room that one night?
01:13:15I poured my heart out to you and you've been lying to me this whole time.
01:13:19The marriage, the house, even this meeting, all for what?
01:13:24So you can earn my business?
01:13:26Redeem your name?
01:13:28Pretend that you're some good person?
01:13:30No, none of that at all, actually.
01:13:33Then why did you do this?
01:13:35Because I fell in love with you five years ago.
01:13:41I didn't know anything about you.
01:13:43But I thought about you every single day.
01:13:46For five years.
01:13:49It was winter.
01:13:51You got robbed and I gave you my coat.
01:13:54I thought I would never see you again.
01:13:56And then you walk into my hotel room.
01:13:58I was shocked.
01:14:00But then I realized that my family hurt you.
01:14:03And how much you hated me.
01:14:05I'm sorry.
01:14:06That my family hurt you.
01:14:08And how much you hated me.
01:14:10So you pretend to be my escort?
01:14:13What, to get close to me?
01:14:15To become my best friend?
01:14:19You can't do this to me, Jesse.
01:14:21You lied to me.
01:14:23You manipulated me.
01:14:25You created this fairy tale of us.
01:14:27You made me fall in love with somebody who doesn't even exist.
01:14:33Serena.
01:14:34Did you really?
01:14:37Did you fall in love with me?
01:14:47Did you really fall in love with me?
01:14:49I can't. I can't do this, Jesse.
01:14:53I am sorry that I lied to you.
01:14:56You have every right to be mad.
01:15:00But I don't want to lose you again.
01:15:02And you know that everything that we have here is real.
01:15:07You know that.
01:15:10It's so much easier to hate you than to love you.
01:15:27It's so much easier to hate you
01:15:29than to love you, Jesse.
01:15:39Serena, wait.
01:15:41It's done.
01:15:43I'm losing the company tomorrow.
01:15:45I'm just going to leave LA, okay?
01:15:47No, it's not.
01:15:49Because you never said it was.
01:15:51What are you talking about?
01:15:53I told myself to let you hate me.
01:15:55And to let you go.
01:15:57But you never said it.
01:16:00I'm sorry.
01:16:03I've been waiting for the right time to give you this.
01:16:08I know that you lost your home.
01:16:10And you lost your mother.
01:16:12And that it's very hard to believe in somebody again.
01:16:14But if you can change your mind,
01:16:16I can be your home.
01:16:23I'm still the same person that you fell in love with.
01:16:26And I can keep waiting for you.
01:16:27I've done it for five years.
01:16:29I can do it again.
01:16:38Jesse, I can't.
01:16:45Because I already proposed to you once.
01:16:48Now it's your turn.
01:16:51And you have to do it right.
01:16:58All right.
01:17:02Serena Monroe.
01:17:06Will you marry me?
01:17:08Again?
01:17:11Yes.
01:17:21I love you, Serena Monroe.
01:17:23I love you too, Jesse.
01:17:24I love you too, Jesse.
01:17:26Are there any more secrets that you need to tell me?
01:17:30Not anymore.
01:17:32I promise.
01:17:55All right, it's official.
01:17:57Robert and Carolyn Monroe are officially off the board
01:18:01and are no longer entitled to your company.
01:18:04How does it feel, Madam CEO?
01:18:07Freaking awesome.
01:18:14Oh.
01:18:16I have to go.
01:18:18Thank you, Lynn.
01:18:20You know, actually, why don't you come in?
01:18:23You know, actually, why don't you just take the rest of the day off?
01:18:26Sure, but why would I...
01:18:32I heard you were also having the day off.
01:18:34This woman, I swear.
01:18:53Okay, you can laugh all you want, but I am not getting pesto in this suit.
01:18:58It costs $5,000.
01:19:00I know.
01:19:02I bought it for you.
01:19:04So it's your monthiversary as CEO.
01:19:07How are you feeling, Ms. Monroe?
01:19:09I am feeling excited, powerful, exhausted, and so, so, so hungry.
01:19:19Well, we can take care of that.
01:19:23Do you know that I am so happy for you?
01:19:25That you got your company back.
01:19:27And I am very proud of you, sweetheart.
01:19:30Am I still being too much, or...
01:19:32No, I think it's perfect.
01:19:38What are you thinking?
01:19:42I don't know.
01:19:44This just feels like home.
01:19:53Mother.
01:19:55You have to do something about that bitch.
01:19:58She kicked me and Daddy out of the company.
01:20:01This is all because she married that Jesse Ross.
01:20:06We almost had her.
01:20:08And her company.
01:20:10The worst part is, Ken hasn't been picking up any of my calls,
01:20:13or responding to any of my text messages.
01:20:15This is all my fault.
01:20:17It's all my fault.
01:20:19It's all my fault.
01:20:20He's not responding to any of my text messages,
01:20:22so he's probably with some new bitch.
01:20:25Tell me what to do.
01:20:27Stop crying and bitching.
01:20:30Turn on the TV.
01:20:32Last month, Ken Snyder accused his ex-fiancée,
01:20:35Serena Monroe, of cheating.
01:20:37Turns out, he was the one who cheated first.
01:20:40And we have photos to prove it.
01:20:46No!
01:20:50No!
