00:00:01I don't want a nanny. I want a mommy.
00:00:04My daddy has lots of money. All he has to do is marry him and be my mommy.
00:00:09Bella!
00:00:13But she's right about Bella needing a mom.
00:00:15I propose a pretend-end relationship.
00:00:18Do you have a deal?
00:00:19Oh, one other thing.
00:00:21Don't fall for me.
00:00:23Same goes for you.
00:00:25It's your ex-wife.
00:00:27I want my daughter.
00:00:29I'm twice the mother that you'll ever be.
00:00:32Bella!
00:00:33No, you're not. Everly is my mommy.
00:00:35So this is what a happy family looks like.
00:00:37I wonder if we could be a real family someday.
00:00:39Just the three of us.
00:00:40Daddy!
00:00:42Watch your back.
00:00:44Everly!
00:00:45What did you do with Bella? Who is this?
00:00:48I know that you could never harm Bella.
00:00:50Not because you're my wife, but because you're a loving heart.
00:00:54Did he really mean that?
00:00:56His wife?
00:00:59No.
00:01:06Bella?
00:01:10Bella!
00:01:11Where did she go?
00:01:13The gardener says Miss Bella's not on the grounds.
00:01:15She's disappeared again.
00:01:17We'll tell the design team to go big or go home.
00:01:20We're not building some quaint bed and breakfast.
00:01:23This is a billion-dollar, far-low resort on a private island off Dubai.
00:01:27We need to crush this.
00:01:29Crush! Crush! Crush!
00:01:32Steve, I have to call you back.
00:01:35How did you get in here, Bella?
00:01:38My little escape artist.
00:01:43What am I going to tell Mr. Barlow?
00:01:46Pulse alarm. She's here, everyone.
00:01:51Thank God!
00:01:53I only took my eyes off her for a second.
00:01:55She needs a leash.
00:01:57I'm not a dog.
00:01:58No, a dog behaves better.
00:02:01Daddy.
00:02:02Okay, everyone, let's get back to it.
00:02:04These decorations aren't going to put themselves up.
00:02:06Miss Delilah, I'm sorry. I will be hiring a new nanny soon.
00:02:10Well, how long do you think this one's going to last?
00:02:12She's scared off three in a year.
00:02:15I don't want a nanny. I want a money.
00:02:26I'm not ever leaving.
00:02:28Can you see? It's a circus out there.
00:02:30Like a literal freaking circus.
00:02:32Oh my God, there's jugglers, there's clowns, there's even a man on stilts.
00:02:35Can you imagine having a birthday like this when you were just eight years old?
00:02:38Foster kid here, I used to blow out imaginary candles and dream of real cake.
00:02:45This is my favorite part.
00:02:48Somebody's a little too in touch with their inner child.
00:02:51When your mother proposed this blind date, I was a little hesitant.
00:02:55I just couldn't believe that any man can live up to the image that she painted.
00:03:00Yes, she's very good at talking me up.
00:03:02In your case, she really didn't do you justice.
00:03:07I'd love to slip away from the crowd and get to know you better.
00:03:11You're at my eight-year-old's birthday party.
00:03:13I wasn't interested before, but now I want you to leave.
00:03:16Wait for it.
00:03:20Why, hello, Mother.
00:03:21Julian, Bianca is hysterical and you have embarrassed me.
00:03:26Well, stop setting me up with random women.
00:03:28I'm not getting married again. Once was enough.
00:03:30Kendra and the race car driver have ended it.
00:03:33Right now, you have sole custody of Bella.
00:03:36I'm not getting married again.
00:03:38I'm not getting married again.
00:03:40I'm not getting married again.
00:03:42I'm not getting married again.
00:03:44You have sole custody of Bella.
00:03:46Let the courts favor the mother, Julian.
00:03:48You and I both know Kendra could show up at any time
00:03:51and demand that Bella live with her just to spite you.
00:03:54I'm not letting that witch anywhere near my daughter.
00:03:57Find yourself a wife and show the world a stable family.
00:04:01Not for your own happiness, but for your child's.
00:04:09Mother might be dramatic, but she's right about Bella needing a mom.
00:04:13Perhaps a fake wife would do.
00:04:17Got vanilla for you.
00:04:20What's your favorite flavor?
00:04:22Chocolate!
00:04:24So, do you want to know what makes everything taste so good?
00:04:28The secret ingredient is...
00:04:33love.
00:04:44Girl, I'm so exhausted. I'm heading home. You coming?
00:04:46I'm going to stay and finish the engagement cake for tomorrow.
00:04:48Okay.
00:04:51Hey, Bernie!
00:04:52Let me grab you the day holds.
00:05:01Tell Rose and Pete I included the pecan cinnamon rolls just for them.
00:05:14Oh my gosh! You scared me!
00:05:17Where did you come from, sweetheart?
00:05:19Where are your parents?
00:05:21Are you lost?
00:05:24What's your name?
00:05:25I'm Everly.
00:05:27And you don't want to tell me, huh?
00:05:31Guess I'll just have to guess.
00:05:33Your name is Olga.
00:05:37Gertrude.
00:05:40Prudence.
00:05:41Hazel.
00:05:42Constance.
00:05:43Phyllis.
00:05:44Henrietta?
00:05:47Bertha.
00:05:48It's Bella!
00:05:51The birthday girl.
00:05:52She must have stowed away in the truck.
00:05:54Bella!
00:06:01You scared me, Bella Barlow.
00:06:04Sorry, Daddy.
00:06:05What were you thinking?
00:06:06I thought my mommy!
00:06:12I'm so sorry.
00:06:13She's never done anything like this.
00:06:15I want Everly to be my mommy.
00:06:17Bella Munchkin, please.
00:06:20You know, my daddy has lots of money.
00:06:23All you have to do is marry him and be my mommy.
00:06:26Bella, you don't marry someone for money.
00:06:29You do it because you love them so much.
00:06:32And it feels like they're a part of you.
00:06:35Like you can't picture your life without them in it.
00:06:40I know you're supposed to be my mommy.
00:06:44I'm engaged to someone else.
00:06:47Come on, Bella.
00:06:49We've taken up enough of Miss Harper's time.
00:07:00So a hot guy and a cute little girl were like,
00:07:02come be my insta-family?
00:07:03The little girl was.
00:07:04The dad was kind of mortified.
00:07:06Bella reminds me of what I was like after the car accident.
00:07:09Kept going up to perfect strangers looking for my parents.
00:07:13Just couldn't accept that they were gone.
00:07:19Hey, beautiful. I miss you already.
00:07:21When are you back from your business trip?
00:07:23I'm back Monday. We'll see each other then.
00:07:26Are you calling me from the bathroom?
00:07:29No, the guests next door are just really loud.
00:07:33I gotta go. I love you.
00:07:37Hello? Earth to Everly?
00:07:39What?
00:07:40I was just thinking about what I told the little girl.
00:07:42All the reasons you marry someone,
00:07:44but I've never actually felt any of those things.
00:07:47Well, you better decide sooner rather than later.
00:07:49Well, Nolan and I have been together since high school.
00:07:52Loyalty counts for something.
00:07:54At least what we have is real.
00:08:02Okay, this is a good one.
00:08:05Okay, this hotel is huge.
00:08:07Where is the engagement party being held?
00:08:09Uh, restaurant.
00:08:11Okay, yes.
00:08:16I'm bored.
00:08:17I'm sorry, Munchkin, but after yesterday,
00:08:19I'm not letting you out of my sight.
00:08:21Bella was bad.
00:08:22Bella was very bad.
00:08:24But I'll take you to get ice cream if you're very good.
00:08:29I want cupcake.
00:08:31Nice try, kiddo.
00:08:34Okay.
00:08:53That must be the bride-to-be.
00:08:55Hey, delivery for the lovely bride.
00:08:57Can I just get your signature on this really quick?
00:09:00Oh, my gosh.
00:09:03Everly.
00:09:05Well, you haven't changed a bit since high school, huh?
00:09:09Still a pathetic orphan with no money or taste.
00:09:14Olivia, this is your engagement party?
00:09:18Who would marry a raging bully like you?
00:09:20Everly, what are you doing here?
00:09:23What are you doing here?
00:09:28Nolan, I...
00:09:30I don't understand.
00:09:32Isn't it obvious, you ignorant nobody?
00:09:36Nolan's been cheating on you.
00:09:39With me.
00:09:47Is it true, Nolan?
00:09:49I can explain.
00:09:50No, is it true?
00:09:52You've been sleeping with Olivia?
00:09:55You saw how she treated me.
00:09:57She made my high school life a living hell.
00:09:59You hate her just as much as I do.
00:10:02Well, if that's hate sex, then sign me up for a lifetime of it.
00:10:09Nolan's a sexy beast, aren't you, darling?
00:10:12But you wouldn't know about that, Everly.
00:10:15Being the pity fuck that you are.
00:10:18You set this whole thing up, didn't you, Olivia?
00:10:21Did you think you could date both of us?
00:10:23Marry both of us?
00:10:25No.
00:10:27Nolan, you have to choose.
00:10:29You can be with me and live the good life.
00:10:32Or, you could be with this dirty orphan.
00:10:36Who will always be poor, pathetic white trash her entire life.
00:10:42And who will drag you down with her.
00:10:48I'm sorry.
00:10:50I'm sorry, Everly. I just, I can't be poor.
00:10:53I can't.
00:10:56I'm so sorry.
00:11:05This isn't happening.
00:11:07I'm in some kind of post-high school nightmare where the mean girl still wins.
00:11:15I don't like her. She's mean.
00:11:17Hello, where did you come from?
00:11:20Is she an evil witch?
00:11:22You little shit.
00:11:23Who the hell let this wretched brat in here?
00:11:25Hey, watch your mouth, Olivia.
00:11:27You can't talk to her like that.
00:11:31I can say whatever the hell I want.
00:11:34And both of you, get out.
00:11:36And take this disgusting cake with you.
00:11:38It's garbage, just like you.
00:11:44What are you, crazy? You could have hurt her.
00:11:46Too bad I missed.
00:11:50Oh my goodness.
00:11:53Get off me.
00:11:57Choke on it, bitch.
00:12:03I'm gonna destroy you.
00:12:05Good luck with that.
00:12:07You already tried in high school, but I'm stronger now.
00:12:09Keep rolling with my blessing.
00:12:12Nolan, do something.
00:12:15Ever flee?
00:12:23Touch my kid and you're dead.
00:12:25Who the hell are you?
00:12:27I'm with her.
00:12:28Since when?
00:12:29That's none of your business.
00:12:33Oh, hold still.
00:12:35You have some frost in there.
00:12:38Babe, just stop. Don't.
00:12:40That's Julian Barlow.
00:12:42Heir of Barlow Hotels and Resorts.
00:12:44He owns this very hotel.
00:12:47You're lucky I don't sue you both for attempting to assault a minor.
00:12:50I didn't know it was your kid.
00:12:52So she's a poor girl? Hurting her is okay?
00:12:54This party's over. You two are banned for life from every Barlow property in the world.
00:13:00So this is what having someone stand up for you feels like?
00:13:04They were bad, Daddy.
00:13:06There's a lot of bad people out there. That's why you can't run off the way you did.
00:13:09But I thought I'd really want to be with her.
00:13:13You need some rest.
00:13:15Go to the car.
00:13:17I love you, Edwin.
00:13:24Thank you for protecting my daughter.
00:13:26Thank you for saving me from my cheating ex-fiancé.
00:13:30That sounds like a desperate man trying to win you back.
00:13:33Yeah.
00:13:35Not happening.
00:13:42It seems we have a problem, Miss Harper.
00:13:45My daughter's heart is set on you being her mother.
00:13:51I'm sorry.
00:13:53I'm sorry.
00:13:55I'm sorry.
00:13:57I'm sorry.
00:14:00You also have a problem with your ex not getting the message.
00:14:04I propose a pretend relationship.
00:14:06Like a fake marriage?
00:14:08Exactly. I can protect you from your ex-fiancé,
00:14:11and you can help me protect Bella from herself and my ex,
00:14:14if she comes back into town.
00:14:16Is your ex really that bad?
00:14:18Kendra makes your high school nemesis look like a teddy bear.
00:14:22Do we have a deal?
00:14:24What if you want to be with someone for real?
00:14:27For how long?
00:14:29I've sworn I'm not going to get married again.
00:14:38Yes, Mr. Barlow.
00:14:40We have a deal.
00:14:53Tomorrow night is the annual charity gala.
00:14:56Black Tie. There, we'll introduce you to society.
00:15:00Why don't we start out slow?
00:15:03My mother will know if we don't show up as newlyweds.
00:15:06Didn't you say she lives in Paris?
00:15:08She has spies everywhere.
00:15:11Did you go to the gala with me?
00:15:14I don't know, Julian.
00:15:16I'm more flower than flair.
00:15:20We have a boutique at the hotel.
00:15:23I think the right dress will ease some of your stress.
00:15:27I'm still super uncomfortable with all this.
00:15:31I don't want to embarrass you at the gala.
00:15:34Are you always going to be this touchy about my money?
00:15:37Most women can't wait to spend it.
00:15:39I'm a baker, not a socialite.
00:15:42You've been hanging out with the wrong crowd.
00:15:47Maybe I have.
00:15:50Do you mind?
00:15:51My mother will want a picture of the newlyweds.
00:16:02One other thing.
00:16:05Don't fall for me.
00:16:08Same goes for you.
00:16:18Boop.
00:16:22Well, hello, Mother.
00:16:24You're married? Who is this girl?
00:16:27Her name is Everly Harper.
00:16:29She's a sous-chef.
00:16:31Cordon Bleu trained, but she calls herself a baker.
00:16:34Ridiculous.
00:16:37Well, her parents died when she was six.
00:16:40And since then, she's had no relatives.
00:16:43She became a ward of the state.
00:16:45And bounced around foster care.
00:16:48Never really having a permanent home.
00:16:50So she's an orphan without social connections.
00:16:53What are her financials?
00:16:55Well, she has some student loan debt.
00:16:57And her business is barely making it.
00:16:59Despite that, she's won numerous awards and competitions for her.
00:17:04Oh, my God. She's dirt poor.
00:17:07You've married a gold digger, Julian.
00:17:10Well, to be honest, my wealth is probably a bad thing in this case.
00:17:14She'd rather me be middle class.
00:17:16Well, then she's a fool.
00:17:18You want a billionaire husband.
00:17:20Well, Bella chose her to be her mother.
00:17:25Well, I'm just upset that my only son didn't inform me he was married.
00:17:29We'll be in touch.
00:17:35That went exactly as expected.
00:17:38Yay! Everly's gonna be my new mommy!
00:17:41I should start calling you my little spy.
00:17:44When does she move in?
00:17:46I'm not sure. We haven't had that discussion.
00:17:49And she's gonna bake me more magical cookies filled with love.
00:17:53Has she done that before?
00:17:56Well, yes. Soon she'll be here and she'll bake you many things full of love.
00:18:01Whee! Whee!
00:18:08Wait. You fake Mary and Julie and Barlow?
00:18:12I know. It's insane.
00:18:14Oh, my God. You do know that your hubby is worth like $100 billion, right?
00:18:17Very funny.
00:18:19He did?
00:18:21I'm not joking.
00:18:23Whoa. I've never seen that many zeros in one spot.
00:18:26Oh, my God. Bestie!
00:18:28You're literally married to one of the richest dudes on the planet.
00:18:31Olivia and her totes are totally gonna flip out.
00:18:33We have to go to the high school reunion next weekend.
00:18:35I thought you said we were skipping that.
00:18:37Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Not anymore.
00:18:39We are going.
00:18:41Come on. Please, please, please.
00:18:44Think about it.
00:18:46Why would someone like him even want a pretend marriage?
00:18:50I mean, he's charming, handsome, brilliant, and a good dad.
00:18:55Like, he could easily find a real wife.
00:18:58Maybe he's just avoiding commitment. You know, classic playboy move.
00:19:01He doesn't strike me as that type.
00:19:03Look at you, playing the little protective wife already.
00:19:07Shut up.
00:19:09So, when does Miss Barlow make her big debut?
00:19:12Tonight, actually.
00:19:15Care to help me find a dress for some exclusive gala?
00:19:18Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
00:19:20This is the most exclusive credit card of all credit cards.
00:19:23You can buy an island with this thing.
00:19:25God, I'm gonna be sick. Oh, my God.
00:19:27I'll have to find a way to give it back to him.
00:19:29Everly Harper, you will do no such thing.
00:19:31Can you please just be a little selfish for the both of us and live a little?
00:19:37All right. Let's do this.
00:19:40Yay!
00:19:52Okay, I can't do this. $40,000 for a dress is insane.
00:19:55You could pay an entire village for that price.
00:19:57Yeah, crazy world we live in.
00:19:59Hello, ladies. My name is Pilar.
00:20:02Should we try something on?
00:20:04It appears to be your size, but I do have a seamstress on sandal.
00:20:07Can I maybe rent it instead?
00:20:09Rent?
00:20:12That'll be $1,000 a day, plus a $4,000 security deposit.
00:20:17Can you afford that?
00:20:20Oh, my goodness. What manual labor job do you do?
00:20:23I'm a baker.
00:20:26Absolutely no rental for you.
00:20:28Those rough worker hands will snag the delicate fabric.
00:20:31There's a thrift store down the way that might be more at your speed.
00:20:35You don't understand. I'm attending the annual Celestial Charity Gala tonight.
00:20:38It's strictly black tie.
00:20:40Then what are you doing at the Celestial?
00:20:42The most exclusive event in town.
00:20:44I know. You must be a waitress handing out caravans.
00:20:48Just buy it, then.
00:20:53This is a black heart.
00:20:55Obviously.
00:20:58Held up at boutique. Not going too well.
00:21:04Well, well, well.
00:21:06This card belongs to Mr. Barlow.
00:21:09How did it end up in your hands?
00:21:11Mr. Barlow happens to be my best friend's husband.
00:21:14As if.
00:21:16You must have stolen it.
00:21:18Security! Arrest these scammers, frightened infect, and fraud.
00:21:22Get your hands off of her, you animal.
00:21:26Let us...
00:21:30We're not thieves.
00:21:32You're making a mistake. The card was given to me. We're innocent.
00:21:39Get this trash out of my face.
00:21:44Let them go.
00:21:51Mr. Barlow, you're right on time.
00:21:54Okay, I just caught these scammers trying to charge $5,000 to your car.
00:21:58$5,000? When have you ever sold a dress under 30 grand?
00:22:01That was me.
00:22:03I was trying to rent it and said, no dress is worth that much.
00:22:06Are you kidding me?
00:22:08Don't fall for this innocent act. She's a clever scammer.
00:22:11Did you see anything you liked?
00:22:13This one.
00:22:15But we were told to shop at the thrift shop.
00:22:17I'm Samantha, by the way. I've heard so much about you.
00:22:20Pleasure to meet you, Samantha.
00:22:22So far, my wife was looking to outfit herself for tonight's gala entirely through your boutique.
00:22:27Unfortunately, you cut up our card.
00:22:33So she...
00:22:35She really is your...
00:22:37Wife?
00:22:39At Barlow, we believe in treating everyone with respect and dignity.
00:22:43Isn't your lease up in 30 days?
00:22:46Mr. Barlow, I am so, so sorry. Okay, Mrs. Barlow, please, here.
00:22:51I'll take the dress. It's on the house.
00:22:53It's not necessary. Just bill my account.
00:22:58And Barlow won't renew your lease.
00:23:01Not here, not anywhere.
00:23:03You're done, Velar.
00:23:05I'll make sure you never work in retail again.
00:23:22I realize right now, this is the first time I'm seeing the real Evelyn.
00:23:26You've been hiding in plain sight.
00:23:28You're right. George, look over here.
00:23:30Mr. Barlow for the night? What's her name, man?
00:23:34I got you.
00:23:36What's her name?
00:23:52I feel like I don't fit in here.
00:23:55You don't fit in, Evelyn.
00:23:57You stand out.
00:23:59Don't be so obvious, Everly. You can't let yourself fall for him.
00:24:02It's true, everyone here is rich.
00:24:04But they're all human. Flaws and all.
00:24:09That's Chase and Daisy Harrington.
00:24:11They're in banking.
00:24:13I don't think you mean they work at the Teller window.
00:24:15Chase can often be found at the dog track.
00:24:17And Daisy's a lush.
00:24:19She's probably spiked her wine with vodka already.
00:24:21Man, that's awful.
00:24:23And that's Lily Blake Dubois.
00:24:25And her second husband.
00:24:27He's 25 years her junior.
00:24:29Men date women who are younger than them all the time.
00:24:31She was the PTA president.
00:24:33And he was in 9th grade.
00:24:35With her son, when they met.
00:24:37When they started their affair.
00:24:39Oh my god. I get it.
00:24:41I am no longer intimidated by anyone in here.
00:24:43Mission accomplished.
00:24:45Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:24:49Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:24:53I'm too old for surprises, mother.
00:24:55You flew from Paris for nothing.
00:24:57Nothing?
00:24:59You're making a fool of yourself with this gold digger.
00:25:02Miss Barlow, let's get two things straight.
00:25:05One, my name is Everly Harper.
00:25:08And two, I am not a gold digger.
00:25:11I am a gold digger.
00:25:13And two, I am not a gold digger.
00:25:15I have earned my keep since I was six years old.
00:25:18And I started my business from scratch.
00:25:20I don't need your money.
00:25:22But I would like your respect.
00:25:24So, I won't let anyone talk down to me.
00:25:26Even if you are Julian's mother.
00:25:28Impudent girl.
00:25:30Meddling mother.
00:25:34Aren't you going to say anything?
00:25:36Meddling mother.
00:25:38I couldn't have put it better myself.
00:25:41I don't know what you did to trick my son into marriage.
00:25:44But I have my eye on you, Everly Harper.
00:25:47One false move, and you are through.
00:25:50Alright, that's enough.
00:25:52Enjoy your evening alone, mother.
00:26:04Everly, I want to apologize.
00:26:07My mother was out of line.
00:26:09She didn't expect it either.
00:26:11She's so determined, she won't back down.
00:26:13We need to make sure she doesn't start digging into the details of our marriage.
00:26:18So, what's our next steps?
00:26:20I want you to move in with me.
00:26:25It was going to happen sooner or later.
00:26:27Mother just expedited it.
00:26:29That goes to the kitchen.
00:26:33Living room.
00:26:34Living room.
00:26:36It's just all moving a little too fast.
00:26:38I mean, one minute Julian's asking me to move in with him,
00:26:41and the next, movers are packing my stuff.
00:26:43But you gotta love a man that takes action, you know?
00:26:45You are oddly chipper about all this.
00:26:47I mean, here I was feeling bad about leaving you to find a new roommate.
00:26:50I don't know, I think I'm going to try living alone for a while.
00:26:52Samantha, how can you afford that?
00:26:54The new landlord lowered everyone's rent.
00:26:56Since when?
00:26:57Since you became his fake bride.
00:27:00He knew that you felt bad for me,
00:27:02and so he bought the entire apartment complex
00:27:04and lowered everyone's rent.
00:27:06That's...
00:27:08That's...
00:27:09Romantic.
00:27:11Everly, billionaires don't think like normal people, sweetie.
00:27:14This is your life now.
00:27:15You need to get used to it, okay?
00:27:23Are we going to have gazpacho for dinner?
00:27:25If it pleases Miss Bella to have gazpacho.
00:27:28Hello!
00:27:29Okay, what can I get you today?
00:27:32You're welcome.
00:27:40Shouldn't take me longer than two days to inspect the site in Indonesia.
00:27:44Are you sure you can watch Bella?
00:27:46I haven't hired a nanny yet, and she tires Miss Delaney out.
00:27:50Don't worry about us, you focus on work.
00:27:52Bella and I will be just fine.
00:27:54I'll take you to the bakery with me, you should have a blast.
00:27:56Here's a detailed list of her routines,
00:27:59do's and don'ts, allergies, emergency contact information,
00:28:03all the information you'll ever need.
00:28:05Love soccer, allergic to strawberries, doctor's number.
00:28:09I'm impressed.
00:28:10I wouldn't have thought a CEO like you would be this hands-on with this kid.
00:28:13Well, you thought wrong.
00:28:15Bella means the world to me.
00:28:18Daddy, why are you staring at Emily like that?
00:28:22You like her.
00:28:24Sorry, she doesn't know what she's talking about.
00:28:26Sometimes kids have a way of knowing the truth.
00:28:29They also have a way of being annoying.
00:28:31Well, anyways, me and Bun-Bun wanted to play airplane.
00:28:35All right, Munchkin, you have one minute.
00:28:37So this is what a happy family looks like.
00:28:39It looks so nice.
00:28:41I wonder if we could be a real family someday.
00:28:43Just the three of us.
00:28:49You know what?
00:28:50I think I'm going to go to bed.
00:28:52Good night.
00:28:53Good night.
00:28:54Good night.
00:28:55Good night.
00:28:56Good night.
00:28:57Good night.
00:28:58Good night.
00:28:59Good night.
00:29:00Good night.
00:29:01Good night.
00:29:02Good night.
00:29:03Good night.
00:29:04Good night.
00:29:05Good night.
00:29:07Okay, Chef, what's on the menu today?
00:29:11Chocolate cupcakes and chocolate donuts and chocolate cake.
00:29:17Oh, and chocolate chip cookies.
00:29:19I'm sensing a chocolate theme.
00:29:21Okay, time to get to work, Chef.
00:29:23Whoopee, Chef!
00:29:29Ta-da!
00:29:30What do you think, Chef?
00:29:32Mmm!
00:29:34Mmm!
00:29:36I can taste the love.
00:29:38What?
00:29:39The magic ingredient.
00:29:40I can taste it.
00:29:41That's good.
00:29:45Evelyn?
00:29:46Hmm?
00:29:47Do you like my dad?
00:29:49Of course I like him.
00:29:51He's a great guy and a good dad.
00:29:53So you could become my mommy for real?
00:29:56Bella, I don't know what the future holds,
00:30:00but I know you have a very special place in my heart, okay?
00:30:04Okay.
00:30:09Whoa, that was fast.
00:30:12Okay, time for a rest.
00:30:17Daddy!
00:30:26Oh, my God, I'm falling for him.
00:30:31Daddy!
00:30:33Did you miss me, Munchkin?
00:30:35So much, but Everly's the best.
00:30:37I got to be a chef.
00:30:39And we had a movie marathon,
00:30:41and I got to sleep in sheep tents in the living room,
00:30:44and we ate in the kitchen with Mrs. Delaney,
00:30:47who was all frowny but then she was all smiley.
00:30:50I like the kitchen better than the dining room.
00:30:52Can we eat there from now on?
00:30:54I see you've made some changes.
00:30:56Very minor ones.
00:30:58Oops, did I say something bad?
00:30:59No, Munchkin, Daddy's just learning.
00:31:01He's a little set in his ways.
00:31:03You can do everything, Dad, but you're a bad cook,
00:31:06and Everly's way better at girl stuff.
00:31:08You're like the prince, and Everly's the princess,
00:31:10and we can all live happily ever after,
00:31:13with one another, of course.
00:31:18Kids and their fairy tales.
00:31:21She'll understand that we can't be more than a pretend couple when she's older.
00:31:25Of course. She's still too little.
00:31:28We can't be more than a pretend couple.
00:31:30Right. It felt so real.
00:31:33I let myself forget it was a fake marriage.
00:31:35It can never be anything more.
00:31:44My God, you have to go.
00:31:47Come on, Olivia and Nolan are going to gossip about us
00:31:49if you do not show your face tomorrow.
00:31:51They're going to do that regardless.
00:31:52Okay, I'm sorry, Sammy, I thought about it,
00:31:54and I don't want to go to our high school reunion.
00:31:56Okay, hear me out. Just picture this.
00:31:58You walk in with your new, hot, billionaire husband.
00:32:01It's the perfect revenge for the mean girls that used to call us poor losers.
00:32:04No, I would never use Julian in that way.
00:32:06Well, if the thing is, I already told them that you would be there with him.
00:32:10Shh.
00:32:11Okay, don't get upset. Don't get upset.
00:32:13It's just that Olivia posted that we were lying skinks,
00:32:15and then I kind of just blew it from there, and then all of a sudden...
00:32:17Samantha, you make everything ten times worse.
00:32:19Don't worry, I'll go with you.
00:32:21I can't let my wife be humiliated.
00:32:23I came by to take you to dinner as a thank you for helping me with Bella.
00:32:28Did he really mean that? His wife?
00:32:31You should take the day off tomorrow and go pamper yourself.
00:32:34I'll make the arrangements with the hotel spa.
00:32:36On one condition. Can you make the reservation for two?
00:32:41I can do that.
00:32:49I want to get my nails done, too.
00:32:51What color do you want to get, Bella?
00:32:53The exact same as you.
00:32:54I also want to get some for Bun Bun.
00:32:56Mm-hmm.
00:32:57He looks great with those.
00:32:58You're so adorable.
00:33:00How could any mother abandon you?
00:33:03I wish you were really mine.
00:33:10Oh, my.
00:33:11Mr. Barlow said that you might need some help getting into it.
00:33:16I can't wear that, Miss Delaney.
00:33:18It's too beautiful and definitely way too expensive.
00:33:21Nonsense, dear.
00:33:23Mr. Barlow said to tell you you're the only one that can do it justice.
00:33:31Now let's see it on you.
00:33:40I want to thank you for the dress.
00:33:42I'll find a way to pay you back.
00:33:44Seeing you in it is payment enough.
00:33:46You are drop-dead gorgeous, Everly.
00:33:49It's not me. It's the dress.
00:33:51Why do you do that?
00:33:53Why do you downplay your beauty?
00:33:55I don't like to draw attention to myself.
00:33:58You shouldn't have to dim your light to make others feel good about themselves.
00:34:16Mr. Barlow, sir, there is a visitor here demanding to speak with you.
00:34:21I'm not expecting anyone.
00:34:23It's your ex-wife.
00:34:29It's your ex-wife.
00:34:37I put Miss Rossi in the guest room.
00:34:39Where's Bella?
00:34:40She's with Miss Delaney in the playroom.
00:34:42Good. We need to keep Bella away from Kendrick.
00:34:46I have to deal with her. I'll join you at the reunion when I'm done.
00:34:48I can just not go.
00:34:50No. Kendrick is not going to disrupt our plans.
00:34:52My driver will take you there. I promise.
00:34:58It's been so long, Julian.
00:35:00Not long enough. What do you want?
00:35:02I want my daughter.
00:35:04I want Bella.
00:35:12I heard Everly is coming to the reunion.
00:35:15I thought that she would never show her face here ever again.
00:35:19Everly? The foster kid weirdo?
00:35:22Yeah, well, she destroyed my engagement party, so I'm going to destroy her tonight.
00:35:26Didn't Amanda say she's married to Julian Barlow?
00:35:29What if he's going to come with her?
00:35:31He might fuck her, but a Barlow is not going to marry trash like her.
00:35:45She should be mine.
00:35:55Eyes on me, Nolan.
00:35:57They really did recreate senior prom.
00:35:59Yep, all the ways, the tacky decorations, and the cheesy DJ.
00:36:03Last time I was here, I was with Nolan.
00:36:05My foster mom at the time helped make my dress, and it looked it.
00:36:09We didn't even get our first dance before Olivia got here.
00:36:11That's right, and then Nolan couldn't take it, and he bailed.
00:36:14We should have known then that he was a dick.
00:36:16Yeah, I forgave him.
00:36:17No one could stand up for Olivia, myself included at that time.
00:36:21Let's slay this bitch.
00:36:23I mean the dance, of course.
00:36:25That dress looks like it cost a fortune.
00:36:29What do you think, Olivia? You're a fashion expert.
00:36:32It can't be the nightingale of Hanoi.
00:36:35No, it can't be.
00:36:37You're a fashion expert.
00:36:39It can't be the nightingale of Hanoi.
00:36:42That dress is worth millions.
00:36:45It's just a cheap knockoff.
00:36:47Come on, girls.
00:36:48Let's give Everly a high school reunion she'll never forget.
00:36:52Let's give Everly a high school reunion she'll never forget.
00:36:57Hey, where's your husband?
00:37:00Julian's on his way.
00:37:01Shut up, loser. No one's talking to you.
00:37:03Bitch.
00:37:04Give it up, Everly.
00:37:05We all know he got bored and dumped you.
00:37:11Like, okay.
00:37:13Did you just fucking shrug at me?
00:37:16Apparently you've forgotten your place.
00:37:18Must be that dress giving you attitude, but it's a cheap knockoff just like you.
00:37:23I don't think it's a knockoff.
00:37:25It's a gift from my husband.
00:37:27Give it up, bitch.
00:37:29We all know you're lying your husband, your dress.
00:37:33I call bullshit.
00:37:34Grow up, Olivia.
00:37:36You're too old to still be a mean girl.
00:37:48Hey, no, no, no.
00:37:49Let go of me, Nolan.
00:37:50Get your hands off of her.
00:37:52Just because you're fucking a Barlow doesn't make you royalty.
00:37:56Take that fake dress off, or I'll take it off for you.
00:38:00What makes you think it's fake?
00:38:01You clueless bitch.
00:38:04I'm a fashion influencer.
00:38:06With 1.8 million followers, you expect me to believe that white trash like you
00:38:13are wearing the Nightingale of Hanoi gown valued at $10 million?
00:38:20That's why Julian grinned when I said I'd pay him back for the dress.
00:38:25Take it off.
00:38:27No.
00:38:30Hey.
00:38:31No.
00:38:32Get off of her.
00:38:36No.
00:38:37Let go.
00:38:38No.
00:38:39No.
00:38:40No.
00:38:41No.
00:38:46Stop.
00:38:47Get away from my wife.
00:38:52Get away from my wife.
00:38:57Yes.
00:39:06I'm sorry I'm late.
00:39:07The dress is ruined.
00:39:09Please tell me it wasn't worth millions of dollars.
00:39:12I can't tell you that.
00:39:15Apologize to my wife, now.
00:39:17We were just joking.
00:39:18You know, fooling around.
00:39:20My wife was on the ground, soaking wet.
00:39:23Dressed torn.
00:39:24All you did was battery and harassment.
00:39:26My lawyer's not going to think that's funny.
00:39:28I sure as hell don't.
00:39:29Lawyers?
00:39:31Who the hell are you?
00:39:33That's Julian Barlow.
00:39:34He's one of the richest men in the world.
00:39:36Do you know how much this dress is worth?
00:39:39Every bead is a genuine, flawless diamond.
00:39:42Miss St. James, you just ruined a $10 million gown.
00:39:45Oh, shit.
00:39:48No.
00:39:49No.
00:39:50No.
00:39:51No.
00:39:52That can't be.
00:39:53Get all your assets, including your parents' house,
00:39:55because the insurance company is coming for your ass.
00:39:57Then the police.
00:39:59Good luck finding a job in fashion after ruining one of the most famous dresses in the world.
00:40:05That's all your endorsements leaving you.
00:40:09That's all your endorsements leaving you.
00:40:11You did this.
00:40:13You set me up.
00:40:14You did it to yourself.
00:40:16Nolan, do something!
00:40:19I left the woman I love because you said we'd be rich,
00:40:21and now you have nothing.
00:40:23You piece of shit.
00:40:24Nope.
00:40:29Don't do this.
00:40:31Please don't do this.
00:40:32I'm not the one you need to beg for forgiveness.
00:40:40I'm sorry, Everly.
00:40:43I never should have tormented you all of those years.
00:40:47You didn't deserve it.
00:40:48Then why did you do it?
00:40:51Why me?
00:40:54Why me?
00:40:55Because even with your shitty clothes,
00:40:58your terrible hair,
00:41:00you were still beautiful.
00:41:02Everyone could see it.
00:41:04I would kill to look like you,
00:41:06and you treated it like it was nothing!
00:41:08So you hated me because I was pretty and didn't shove it in people's faces?
00:41:13That is so messed up.
00:41:15Yeah.
00:41:16Well, I was right to hate you.
00:41:19Look at you.
00:41:20You bagged a billionaire without even trying.
00:41:23Everly is beautiful inside and out.
00:41:26That's what draws people to her.
00:41:28You're done here.
00:41:29I'm not going to push any criminal charges,
00:41:31but the insurance company will be reaching out.
00:41:33You're on the hook for that dress.
00:41:36Oh, my God.
00:41:37I never thought that I'd see this in a lifetime.
00:41:39Please pinch me and tell me that I'm not dreaming.
00:41:41If you are, so am I.
00:41:44You want to get out of here?
00:41:45Yes, please.
00:41:49♪
00:42:00Bitches.
00:42:01Who knew that high school reunions would be this fun?
00:42:09Thank you for what you did.
00:42:11Never has anyone come to my rescue before.
00:42:14I enjoy doing it.
00:42:16You matter to me, Everly.
00:42:20Me and Bella.
00:42:22Hey.
00:42:23Of course.
00:42:24I understand.
00:42:25Thank you again.
00:42:27Have a good night, Julian.
00:42:28Everly, wait.
00:42:30That came out wrong.
00:42:32What I meant was...
00:42:34I have feelings for you.
00:42:37But I don't want to lead you on.
00:42:39Kendra's betrayal of our marriage,
00:42:41it broke something inside of me,
00:42:43and I don't think I can commit to another woman.
00:42:47I just want to be with you.
00:42:50I'm not asking for anything else.
00:42:52You're so amazing, Julian,
00:42:54and I like everything about you.
00:42:56You just...
00:42:57♪
00:43:14Sir, is that you?
00:43:16I heard a noise.
00:43:20Yes, Mr. Gibson.
00:43:22You can go to bed.
00:43:23Yes, sir. Good night, sir.
00:43:25Ma'am.
00:43:26Fuck, that was embarrassing.
00:43:28I haven't got caught like that since I was a little schoolboy.
00:43:31You think he saw us?
00:43:32He probably did, but he's not going to say anything.
00:43:36I want nothing more than to take you upstairs right now.
00:43:40Me too.
00:43:41You're so honest, Emily.
00:43:43It's one of the many things I admire about you.
00:43:46And although it's going to kill me,
00:43:49I want you to go to bed.
00:43:51You're too noble.
00:43:54No one's ever said that to me before.
00:43:58Good night, sweetheart.
00:44:02Now go,
00:44:04before I change my mind.
00:44:08Did that just happen?
00:44:10Am I actually dating Julian Barlow?
00:44:18This is nice.
00:44:20Just holding your hand.
00:44:23What are we going to tell Bella?
00:44:25I don't want to get her hopes up.
00:44:26But we are dating now.
00:44:28Change of steps.
00:44:30We have to put her first.
00:44:32Have you always thought of others at the expense of yourself?
00:44:35That's why I was bullied so much growing up.
00:44:38And why people take advantage of me.
00:44:40Don't say that.
00:44:42You're the best person I know, Emily.
00:44:44Now you have me.
00:44:46And I promise I won't let anyone hurt you anymore.
00:44:56So you think you can replace me with this whore, Julian?
00:44:59Let's see how that works out when I get through with the both of you.
00:45:08So, this is your latest slut.
00:45:11Kendra, are you following me?
00:45:13I'm Bella's mother.
00:45:14I need to know what her father is doing,
00:45:16and who he's doing.
00:45:18So you fuck the help now from Liam?
00:45:20Who I'm with is none of your business.
00:45:22You gave that right up three years ago
00:45:24when you cheated on me with my best friend.
00:45:26Then you abandoned your daughter and went to Europe
00:45:28with some tennis pro at a club.
00:45:30That was ages ago.
00:45:32I've changed now.
00:45:34I'm ready to be a wife and mother.
00:45:36Let this homewrecker
00:45:38get in the way of what we can have.
00:45:40Emily is my wife now.
00:45:42And stay away from Bella.
00:45:43You don't have visitation rights.
00:45:47Oh, we'll see about that.
00:45:49I'm Bella's birth mother.
00:45:51That's never going to change.
00:45:53I can't lose my daughter while we're...
00:45:55You won't.
00:45:56We'll fight it together.
00:46:06Hello, sir.
00:46:08What can I get for you today?
00:46:10I need to ask a favor of you.
00:46:12Sorry.
00:46:14No freebies for men with mean ex-wives?
00:46:16No ex-wife.
00:46:18Just one wife right in front of me.
00:46:22I'm still working.
00:46:24I'll have to kick you out
00:46:26if you're not a paying customer.
00:46:28Then I'll pay now.
00:46:30I guess just bought the entire store.
00:46:32I need help
00:46:34from my favorite cake baker.
00:46:36Bella's Elementary School is hosting a bake sale
00:46:38and every family
00:46:40brings a homemade dessert
00:46:42and they all compete for first place.
00:46:44Would you want to go with us?
00:46:46You want me to be a part of your family?
00:46:48In front of your neighbors?
00:46:50Of course.
00:47:00No, you have to stir in the same direction
00:47:02clockwise 30 times.
00:47:04Wow.
00:47:06I had no idea you had to be so accurate.
00:47:08You do if you want to be the best.
00:47:12No, not like that. Like this.
00:47:22You are the worst student.
00:47:24I'm sorry I can't concentrate
00:47:26because my teacher's sick.
00:47:28I can't concentrate
00:47:30because my teacher's so hot.
00:47:44Evelyn and Daddy
00:47:46sitting in a tree.
00:47:48Can I assist?
00:47:50I'm gonna get you.
00:47:54Come here.
00:47:58Come here.
00:48:10Hey, Bella.
00:48:12Remember me?
00:48:14No.
00:48:16I'm your mother.
00:48:18No, you're not. Evelyn's my mom.
00:48:20I chose her.
00:48:22You little brat. You can't choose your mother.
00:48:24You're born with one and that's what you get.
00:48:26You're upsetting Bella and causing a scene.
00:48:28Whatever.
00:48:30Move aside.
00:48:32I'm going to win this bake sale
00:48:34and prove who the real mother is.
00:48:36Those are store-bought cookies.
00:48:38What is she thinking?
00:48:40No, she made those.
00:48:42Her family owns Rossi Cookies.
00:48:44They're a franchise.
00:48:46They have stores in every country.
00:48:48You didn't tell me your ex was a world-renowned baker.
00:48:50She doesn't have a tenth of your talent.
00:48:52Her grandma's the baker.
00:48:54She's a masterpiece.
00:48:56There's not one creative bone in her body.
00:49:02Oh my god.
00:49:04That's amazing.
00:49:06I want to buy all of it.
00:49:08Who made this?
00:49:10Julian Barlow?
00:49:12I had no idea he was such a talented baker.
00:49:16Here.
00:49:18Try mine.
00:49:20Not to brag, but the Rossi name is renowned
00:49:22and it hurts.
00:49:24Not bad, but nowhere near the Barlow's.
00:49:26I'm telling you all to taste it.
00:49:28It's simply magic in your mouth.
00:49:30I think we know who the winner is.
00:49:34Yay!
00:49:40You want to see magic?
00:49:42I'm going to make that bitch disappear.
00:49:44Abra-fucking-cadabra.
00:49:52Can't forget that.
00:49:54Top of Bella's grocery list.
00:49:56She would never forgive me.
00:49:58Well, aren't we the perfect little housewife?
00:50:00That is, until Bella is rushed to the hospital.
00:50:02Oops.
00:50:08Early!
00:50:10Hi!
00:50:12So lucky to run into you here.
00:50:14Oh. Oh, so.
00:50:16I owe you an apology for how weird I was to you earlier.
00:50:18In my defense,
00:50:20you have to be a mother to understand
00:50:22how it feels to see another woman raising a child.
00:50:24Do you have it in your heart to forgive me?
00:50:26It's Bella and Julian you owe an apology to,
00:50:28not me.
00:50:30Watch your back.
00:50:32There's a long line
00:50:34of women waiting to get their claws into Julian.
00:50:36Beautiful, sexy,
00:50:38sophisticated women.
00:50:40Who are suited to his lifestyle
00:50:42so he sees every want and desire.
00:50:46Is there some kind of threat?
00:50:48No.
00:50:50Just a cold, hard fact
00:50:52that you, Everly Harper,
00:50:54will never be more than a glorified babysitter
00:50:56to him.
00:50:58It's funny,
00:51:00because you'll never be more than a bitter memory to him.
00:51:04Now stop messing with our family.
00:51:08Next time, I won't be so nice.
00:51:12Next time,
00:51:14you'll be the psycho who drugged Julian's daughter.
00:51:18Can I ask you a question?
00:51:20Why did you choose me?
00:51:22Ooh,
00:51:24where's this coming from?
00:51:26I mean, once Bella grows up
00:51:28and doesn't need a mom anymore,
00:51:30will you still want to be with me?
00:51:32Everly, sweetheart,
00:51:34this doesn't sound like you.
00:51:36It's just,
00:51:38I'm not like the society women
00:51:40you've dated in the past.
00:51:42If you get bored with me,
00:51:44I'll be bored with you.
00:51:46Imagine dating someone
00:51:48who barely eats because they're watching their figure
00:51:50and spends more time with their plastic surgeons
00:51:52than with their family.
00:51:54You mean these society women?
00:51:56You're so bad.
00:52:00I'm sorry.
00:52:02I let Kendra get in my head.
00:52:04When'd you see Kendra?
00:52:06It's Bella's mom.
00:52:08It's Bella's mom.
00:52:10It's Bella's mom.
00:52:12It's Bella's mom.
00:52:14It's Bella's school.
00:52:16This is Julian Barlow.
00:52:20Emergency room.
00:52:22Uh-huh.
00:52:24I understand. I'm on my way.
00:52:26What's going on? Is Bella okay?
00:52:28The school nurse said that she was poisoned.
00:52:30Something she ate. Something about a lollipop.
00:52:40Bella is asleep.
00:52:42Unfortunately, the lab results just showed
00:52:44that it was a common prescribed sedative
00:52:46that was on the lollipop.
00:52:48How does this happen? I don't understand.
00:52:50I have to ask, have you had any threats
00:52:52recently or
00:52:54encountered any suspicious characters?
00:52:56I came as soon as I heard.
00:52:58How is our precious Bella?
00:53:00She's coming along.
00:53:02Okay. Poison?
00:53:04My God, what kind of monster
00:53:06would poison an innocent child?
00:53:08With a lollipop, no less.
00:53:10I'm sorry. Doctor, did you say lollipop?
00:53:12The perpetrator
00:53:14poisoned Julian and my daughter
00:53:16with a lollipop.
00:53:18Well,
00:53:20that's interesting
00:53:22because I ran into Everleigh at the bakery yesterday
00:53:24and I saw one of Bella's
00:53:26favorite rainbow-colored lollipops.
00:53:28Are you suggesting
00:53:30that I had something to do with this?
00:53:32You gave Bella that lollipop,
00:53:34did you not?
00:53:40I did, but...
00:53:42I can't believe this.
00:53:44Our precious Bella,
00:53:46our little angel, drugged
00:53:48by yet another baby.
00:53:50I did no such thing. I would never...
00:53:52Wait, hold on. Bella's been poisoned before?
00:53:54Is this true, Julian?
00:53:56When she was 18 months old, I had a babysitter
00:53:58and I haven't been able to trust anyone
00:54:00since then, just you.
00:54:02But now I...
00:54:04Now what?
00:54:06I'll tell you what.
00:54:08I'll never be near Bella ever again.
00:54:10No, no, this can't be real.
00:54:12You know I would never hurt Bella.
00:54:14You know I love her like she's my own daughter.
00:54:16Oh, but she's not.
00:54:18She's ours.
00:54:20Julian,
00:54:22will you be calling security
00:54:24or shall I?
00:54:26Julian, will you be calling security
00:54:28or shall I?
00:54:32Everleigh, I'm sorry.
00:54:34I'm sorry for ever doubting you,
00:54:36even for a second.
00:54:38I know that you could never harm Bella.
00:54:40Not because you're my wife,
00:54:42but because of your loving heart.
00:54:44Julian, what are you saying? She's dangerous!
00:54:46Stop, Kendra, just stop!
00:54:48But...
00:54:50Look at the evidence.
00:54:52Everleigh bought the rainbow-colored lollipop for Bella.
00:54:54Who else could have tampered with it?
00:54:58How did you know it was a rainbow lollipop?
00:55:00No one mentioned
00:55:02what color it was.
00:55:04No, you switched them.
00:55:06At the bakery parking lot,
00:55:08that's why you were there.
00:55:10You drugged your own daughter
00:55:12just to frame me? What kind of sicko does that?
00:55:14You can't prove that.
00:55:16But your prescription medicine can.
00:55:18Julian, stop! That's not mine!
00:55:20She's been taking Sanif since I met her.
00:55:24That's exactly what was found in Bella's system.
00:55:26It's...
00:55:28You psychotic bitch!
00:55:30First you tried to kill my daughter, now you're trying to frame my wife?
00:55:32It's common.
00:55:34It could be found from anywhere.
00:55:36It could have been anyone.
00:55:38It could have been you.
00:55:40It was you, wasn't it?
00:55:42I'm telling you, it wasn't!
00:55:44Bella's waking up.
00:55:50Thank God she's okay.
00:55:54The thought of losing her was too much to bear.
00:55:56We don't have to think about that.
00:55:58She has you.
00:56:00I have you.
00:56:02And we all have each other.
00:56:04Whatever comes our way.
00:56:06That's what family's for.
00:56:10That's what it means to love.
00:56:12And be loved.
00:56:14Exactly.
00:56:16Stop it.
00:56:18We're in the children's ward.
00:56:20I'm pretty sure all these doctors and nurses
00:56:22know how babies are born.
00:56:24Mommy?
00:56:26Daddy?
00:56:30Raincheck?
00:56:32Oh, you can count on it.
00:56:34Is that my little munchkin in there
00:56:36making noise?
00:56:40Welcome in.
00:56:42What gang is that?
00:56:44No.
00:56:46What, is there a rule against selling a cake to your ex?
00:56:48Come on, Emily.
00:56:50Look, Everly, I'm sorry.
00:56:52I know I made a big mistake, I'll admit that.
00:56:54But I've changed.
00:56:56I left Olivia, and I just want to start fresh.
00:56:58I want to do this again.
00:57:00Are you serious?
00:57:02Yes, it was all Olivia's doing.
00:57:04You know how manipulative she can be.
00:57:06And I only loved you the entire time.
00:57:08You think Julian's a multi-billionaire?
00:57:10You think he'd really go for someone like you?
00:57:12I mean, get real, Everly.
00:57:14If he doesn't love you, I do.
00:57:16At least I would die without you.
00:57:18Oh!
00:57:22Get the hell out of my bakery!
00:57:24You fucking bitch!
00:57:26No one's gonna come to save you.
00:57:30Stay away from my wife!
00:57:32Last warning!
00:57:34Stay away from her or I'll break more than just your arm!
00:57:36Motherfucker.
00:57:38If I can't have her,
00:57:40no one can.
00:57:46Thank you for stepping in, Julian.
00:57:48I wish I could be here all the time,
00:57:50but I can't.
00:57:52Nolan.
00:57:54It's gonna be a problem.
00:57:56I can't exactly lock my doors.
00:57:58Don't work by yourself anymore.
00:58:00Make sure Samantha's with you.
00:58:06I'm in for the lunch, kid.
00:58:08Thanks.
00:58:12I have to pick her up right now.
00:58:14We'll see you later?
00:58:16Stay there.
00:58:20Okay.
00:58:32And the hits keep coming.
00:58:34First my ex,
00:58:36now his.
00:58:38We never catch a break.
00:58:40We have to keep that from Bella.
00:58:42I'll get my lawyer to file a restraining order
00:58:44against Kendra this week.
00:58:46Maybe there's a way we can make peace
00:58:48with Bella's mom.
00:58:50We've tried.
00:58:52She's turned every attempt against us,
00:58:54including Bella.
00:58:56I can't risk
00:58:58losing my daughter.
00:59:02How can I help protect Bella?
00:59:04I don't know.
00:59:06I don't know.
00:59:08How can I help protect Bella?
00:59:10No, Everly, it's not your fight.
00:59:12Yes, it is. Contract or not, you and I are in this together.
00:59:14I can't stand by while you and Bella
00:59:16suffer.
00:59:38What if Bella wakes up?
00:59:40She had a great night years ago. I just kept it.
00:59:42I know.
01:00:08Okay.
01:00:28What are your thoughts
01:00:30on a family date?
01:00:32The three of us.
01:00:34You want to go on a picnic?
01:00:36I'll go
01:00:38wherever you'll take me.
01:00:42So where did you get Bun Bun?
01:00:44When I was three years old.
01:00:46Yep, we were outside
01:00:48and she saw a rabbit run across the yard
01:00:50and she looked at me and reached her hands out
01:00:52and I said, no, you can't have a wild animal.
01:00:54So she started crying.
01:00:56So naturally, I got her Bun Bun the next day.
01:00:58Naturally.
01:01:06My baby,
01:01:08come to mom.
01:01:10What are you doing here? You look like a stalker.
01:01:12I'm still your mother
01:01:14and I brought your favorite food,
01:01:16strawberries.
01:01:18Everly loves me more than you
01:01:20and I love her too and I can't eat
01:01:22strawberries.
01:01:24Darling,
01:01:26that woman is
01:01:28just after daddy's money.
01:01:30You're lying. I hate you.
01:01:32You can't talk to me like that.
01:01:34I'm your mother.
01:01:36No, you're not. Everly is my mommy.
01:01:38You're scary.
01:01:40You little rat.
01:01:42Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:01:44Mommy, daddy!
01:01:46Someone needs to teach you
01:01:48some manners.
01:01:50Mommy, daddy! Kendra, what the hell?
01:01:52I'm trying to protect
01:01:54my daughter from this fucking bitch.
01:01:56Hey, watch your language in front of Bella.
01:01:58Strawberries?
01:02:00Kendra, are you insane?
01:02:02You're deathly allergic.
01:02:04How was I supposed to know? You never let me see them.
01:02:06That's a lie. You abandoned her.
01:02:08Shut up, you lying gold digger.
01:02:10I'm twice the mother that you'll ever be.
01:02:12Bella!
01:02:14Come back, sweetie.
01:02:16She's overwhelmed. You're scaring her.
01:02:18You know
01:02:20nothing about my daughter
01:02:22but I know about you.
01:02:24You're just a foster kid,
01:02:26one step up from the gutter.
01:02:28Bella and I both know that Everly
01:02:30doesn't want anything to happen to this family.
01:02:32Bella,
01:02:34sweetie, you can't possibly
01:02:36think that this poor substitute is better
01:02:38than a real mother.
01:02:40We have the same blood.
01:02:42You're part Rossi.
01:02:44You can't ask your daughter that. Shut up!
01:02:46Kendra, this isn't some game
01:02:48that you can win. This is Bella and Julian's
01:02:50lives.
01:02:52I don't know why, but you abandoned them.
01:02:54You trying to snatch them back
01:02:56just so you can win won't make you happy.
01:02:58Move on.
01:03:00You have to move on.
01:03:04I know I don't deserve her,
01:03:06but I found out last month that
01:03:08I'm infertile.
01:03:10I can never have
01:03:12another baby.
01:03:14Bella's it for me.
01:03:16Oh!
01:03:26I know she's done some bad things,
01:03:28but she's still your mother, Bella.
01:03:30Why don't you go give her a hug?
01:03:34I don't really
01:03:36hate you.
01:03:38I know, baby.
01:03:40It's all
01:03:42my fault.
01:03:46You're right.
01:03:48I only
01:03:50wanted to win.
01:03:52You can win a game, but you can never
01:03:54win someone's heart.
01:03:56You're very wise.
01:03:58Don't get me wrong. I don't want to be your friend.
01:04:00I'm just trying
01:04:02to leave my daughter with a happy memory.
01:04:06Take care,
01:04:08Kendra. Maybe one
01:04:10day I'll let Bella write you. She's older.
01:04:12Bye, sweetie.
01:04:18She fell
01:04:20for my sob story.
01:04:22Stupid bitch.
01:04:24I won't stop until I get my man back
01:04:26and the kid with him.
01:04:32Oh!
01:04:34What's all this for?
01:04:36100th
01:04:38Annual International Bake-Off.
01:04:40Sounds like a big deal.
01:04:42It's invitation only,
01:04:44and I can't believe I got in.
01:04:46If I do well, it'll really help put the bakery
01:04:48on the map.
01:04:50Give it how you rocked that bake sale.
01:04:52You've got this in the bag.
01:04:54That was nothing. I need a showstopper that's going to dazzle
01:04:56their taste buds and win over their hearts.
01:05:00So what's the secret weapon?
01:05:04Vanilla rosemary five-layer cake
01:05:06topped with a lavender buttercream and a hint
01:05:08of orange zest.
01:05:10Sounds like I need to clear some space on the mantle
01:05:12for that first place trophy.
01:05:14Cut it out!
01:05:16I'm trying to concentrate.
01:05:18Oh, am I distracting you?
01:05:20I'm a sucker for a messy apron.
01:05:24Okay, fine.
01:05:26You can stay, but you have to make yourself useful.
01:05:30What's first, chef?
01:05:32Ladies and gentlemen,
01:05:34welcome to our 100th Annual
01:05:36International Bake Off.
01:05:38Please find your seat.
01:05:40Our competition will start shortly.
01:05:48You got this, girl. We'll be on the front row cheering you on, okay?
01:05:50Thanks, Sammy.
01:05:52I'm going to go check my presentation one more time.
01:05:58Knock them dead out there, sweetheart.
01:06:02Good luck.
01:06:06There you are,
01:06:08falling nicely into my trap.
01:06:10Who do you think arranged the invite,
01:06:12you pathetic nobody?
01:06:22Hey, Everly.
01:06:24Ready to get crushed.
01:06:26What are you doing here?
01:06:28Are you stalking me?
01:06:30You look scared.
01:06:32You should be.
01:06:34I'm going to win that trophy
01:06:36and prove who's the better baker and mother.
01:06:40I'm infertile.
01:06:42I can never have another baby.
01:06:44So everything you said at the park was a lie.
01:06:46You're not infertile.
01:06:48You just can't stand that Bella chose me.
01:06:50I'm her fucking mother, bitch.
01:06:52You're a monster.
01:06:54And you're just an amateur who doesn't deserve to be here.
01:06:58Did you really think you earned a place in this competition?
01:07:00I'm the one who got the judges to invite you,
01:07:02and now Julian's going to see
01:07:04what a poor orphan loser you truly are.
01:07:08Bring it on, Rossi.
01:07:10My recipe has heart and soul,
01:07:12and they will beat your assembly line crap any day.
01:07:18Oh, yeah?
01:07:20Do you know what goes great with cake?
01:07:22What?
01:07:24Coffee.
01:07:26Oops!
01:07:28Oops!
01:07:32Kendra, what the hell?
01:07:34You better go get cleaned up.
01:07:36Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:07:38So unsanitary.
01:07:56Your knight in shining armor
01:07:58can't save your ass this time.
01:08:00Never leave.
01:08:02Our next competitor,
01:08:04Kendra Rossi.
01:08:08Hi, judge.
01:08:10This is my own
01:08:12one-of-a-kind original recipe.
01:08:16A vanilla rosemary
01:08:18five-layer cake
01:08:20with lavender buttercream
01:08:22and a hint of orange zest.
01:08:24That's my cake!
01:08:30What are you talking about?
01:08:32You stole my recipe!
01:08:34A nobody accusing me,
01:08:36a Rossi, of cheating?
01:08:38How dare you?
01:08:40Man.
01:08:42You have impeccable taste in women
01:08:44because obviously you chose Everly.
01:08:46But that woman up there?
01:08:48How did you end up with such a nightmare ex?
01:08:50I was young.
01:08:52And stupid.
01:08:54Yeah, obviously.
01:08:56So what are we going to do to salvage this?
01:08:58We can barlow for goodness sake.
01:09:00It's not that simple.
01:09:02I know Everly wouldn't want to win that way.
01:09:04Dammit.
01:09:06So what do we do now?
01:09:10Kendra can't get away with this.
01:09:12A nobody accusing me,
01:09:14a Rossi, of cheating?
01:09:18How dare you?
01:09:22You better go get cleaned up.
01:09:24Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:09:26So that's why you spilled coffee on me.
01:09:28So you could hack my laptop behind my back
01:09:30the same way you switched
01:09:32the lollipops behind my back
01:09:34when you poisoned Bella.
01:09:36That is a serious accusation.
01:09:38Now, can you prove
01:09:40that this cake is your creation?
01:09:42Here's your proof.
01:09:50We can't see anything.
01:09:52The screen is blank.
01:09:56What happened to my files?
01:09:58They're not there.
01:10:00As I said, this recipe is mine
01:10:02and mine alone.
01:10:04No, no, no, no.
01:10:06It's not true.
01:10:08Kendra Rossi, you're a thief.
01:10:10I think we've heard enough.
01:10:12Sir, I know this recipe.
01:10:14My recipe by heart.
01:10:16I can recite it from memory.
01:10:18I'm afraid that doesn't prove anything.
01:10:20Now, I think it's best
01:10:22that you leave the stage now
01:10:24for I have to disqualify you.
01:10:28Isn't that the baker
01:10:30from Sweet Escape Bakery?
01:10:32Not going to her shop, ever.
01:10:38Wait!
01:10:40Wait!
01:10:44This will prove the recipe is Everly's.
01:10:46Now, you're going to want to let it cool
01:10:48for about 10 minutes.
01:10:50Hey, back on me.
01:10:52This is the important part.
01:10:54The last step is to lightly dust
01:10:56with a layer of orange zest.
01:10:58Just enough to reach the edges.
01:11:06And then you're going to want to add
01:11:08a pinch of salt.
01:11:10And...
01:11:12Voila!
01:11:14You'll see the time stamp
01:11:16of this raw footage
01:11:18was taken two weeks ago.
01:11:20And speaking from experience,
01:11:22no one can make this cake
01:11:24exactly like my wife.
01:11:32Something's different.
01:11:34Taste for yourself.
01:11:36Taste for yourself.
01:11:42Salt.
01:11:44It's missing the salt.
01:11:46I didn't include it in my recipe notes.
01:11:48It was a last-minute, spur-of-the-moment addition.
01:11:50Totally spontaneous.
01:11:52And yet, it made all the difference in the world.
01:11:54Salt?
01:11:56Salt?
01:12:06Salt?
01:12:14Salt or not,
01:12:16this is no ordinary cake.
01:12:18And it could only come
01:12:20from the heart and soul
01:12:22of an extraordinary baker.
01:12:30You almost ruined my wife today!
01:12:32This is your last straw!
01:12:34I'm calling the police!
01:12:36But I didn't.
01:12:38Okay, okay!
01:12:40I did it.
01:12:42I did it.
01:12:44All of it.
01:12:46Are you happy now?
01:12:48Dragging me in the mud like this in front of everyone?
01:12:50Julian, you broke my heart!
01:12:52You have to have a heart for it to be broken.
01:12:54How can you say that?
01:12:56I loved you
01:12:58more than anything.
01:13:00And then this bitch gets into the picture
01:13:02suddenly out of nothing?
01:13:04Just some garbage you can throw away?
01:13:06What is so special about her, Julian?
01:13:08She's not prettier than me.
01:13:10She can't be better in bed than me.
01:13:12What do you possibly see in her
01:13:14that you don't see in me?
01:13:16Maybe I'm just a better baker than you, Kendra.
01:13:20Here.
01:13:22Have a taste.
01:13:24I don't want your stupid salt.
01:13:26Oh!
01:13:28Oh my god!
01:13:30It smells disgusting!
01:13:32It smells like a rotten potato chip!
01:13:34And Bella could have made a better cake than that!
01:13:38I...
01:13:40I don't even know what to say
01:13:42about everything that's going on here.
01:13:44Say I can present my cake.
01:13:46That's all I came here to do, sir.
01:13:48Fair enough.
01:13:50The ingredients in my cake are pretty traditional
01:13:52in terms of regular cake ingredients.
01:13:54I like the rosemary because it tends to cut through
01:13:56the sweetness of traditional cakes
01:13:58while also balancing the orange zest,
01:14:00aromatic flavoring that we really look for
01:14:02in a well-balanced cake.
01:14:04I also, not listed,
01:14:06I add a little bit of salt on top
01:14:08just to balance everything out,
01:14:10and I hope you really like it.
01:14:18We have seen a lot
01:14:20of great bakes this year,
01:14:22but nothing in the history of this competition
01:14:24has ever compared
01:14:26to this year's
01:14:28first prize winner,
01:14:30Everly Harper!
01:14:32This year's first prize winner,
01:14:34Everly Harper!
01:14:38Congratulations, Miss Harper.
01:14:40Truly well-deserved.
01:14:42Would you excuse me?
01:14:48Oh, we did it, Samantha!
01:14:50We did it!
01:14:52No, Everly, you did this.
01:14:54Listen to this.
01:14:56Orders are flooding in like crazy.
01:14:58No, no, no, no, no.
01:15:00I've got this. Trust me.
01:15:02Now get out of here.
01:15:04Go celebrate with your hubby.
01:15:06Yeah?
01:15:08I am so proud of you, Everly.
01:15:20Get lost.
01:15:22I'm more likely to stick a pitch
01:15:24than suck a dick right now.
01:15:26Good. Then we both want the same thing.
01:15:28Yeah?
01:15:30What's that?
01:15:32Revenge.
01:15:34I've spent the last two weeks learning everything I can
01:15:36about Julian Barlow and Everly Harper's relationship.
01:15:38And I think what I found
01:15:40might interest you.
01:15:42Who the fuck are you?
01:15:44I'm someone that hates Julian,
01:15:46and I heard you're someone that hates Everly.
01:15:48So I have a plan
01:15:50that'll get us both what we want.
01:15:52I'm listening.
01:16:02Am I doing it right?
01:16:04Those look great.
01:16:06Just squeeze your bag a little bit tighter.
01:16:08More icing equals more smiles.
01:16:10Okay.
01:16:12Time to switch to croissants.
01:16:14The chocolate filled kind?
01:16:16All different kinds.
01:16:18I want you to stand in the back and get me two blocks of butter.
01:16:20They are left side, middle shelf.
01:16:22Left side, middle shelf, two blocks.
01:16:24Got it.
01:16:40You're coming with me, Bella.
01:16:42I'm your mother,
01:16:44not that whore.
01:16:46Save your breath, kid.
01:16:48She can't hear you anyway.
01:16:50Everly!
01:16:52Everly! Shut up!
01:16:58Go!
01:17:16Bella?
01:17:18Bella?
01:17:20Bella!
01:17:32Everly!
01:17:34Back here!
01:17:40Tits.
01:17:42Shh.
01:17:44Shh.
01:17:52This is Julian Barlow.
01:17:54I have your daughter.
01:17:56And if I don't get 200 million
01:17:58in cash by sundown, she won't see the sunrise.
01:18:00What did you do with Bella?
01:18:02Who is this?
01:18:0410 million.
01:18:06Unmarked bills split into two separate duffel bags.
01:18:08Let me talk to Bella.
01:18:10I need to know she's safe.
01:18:12Damn you!
01:18:14She's just a little girl.
01:18:16There's an abandoned campsite at the end of King Enridge Road.
01:18:18Put the cash inside the office cabin
01:18:20and come alone.
01:18:22Because I'll be watching.
01:18:24When do I get Bella?
01:18:30What are we going to do?
01:18:32I'll call my bank.
01:18:34I'll get the money within an hour.
01:18:36Okay.
01:18:38Hello?
01:18:40Anybody?
01:18:42Hello?
01:18:44What is she doing here?
01:18:46I need an explanation for this.
01:18:48Mother, now is not the time for this.
01:18:50I had to learn from Kendra that you're not married at all.
01:18:52That you fake everything.
01:18:54What is this? This is for my sake.
01:18:56Combination with Bella's birthday.
01:18:58Very sloppy of you, Julian.
01:19:00How could you lie to your own mother
01:19:02and present this fraud
01:19:04as if she were actually your wife?
01:19:06I didn't know she was a gold digger,
01:19:08but I didn't know she was a tramp for hire.
01:19:10Silence!
01:19:12This is not important right now.
01:19:14That is just a piece of paper, Mother.
01:19:16I have to find Bella. She's been kidnapped.
01:19:18My grandbaby has been kidnapped?
01:19:20What happened?
01:19:22Bella and I were baking
01:19:24and someone grabbed me.
01:19:26I blacked out and when I woke up
01:19:28she was gone.
01:19:30I have to get the ransom money together now
01:19:32so if you two could please just...
01:19:34What?
01:19:36Stand aside and let you handle it?
01:19:38You brought this tramp into my daughter's home
01:19:40and because of her, Bella's life
01:19:42is at stake.
01:19:44Ew.
01:19:46It smells.
01:19:48Did you just let common street trash walk in here?
01:19:50Don't talk about him like that.
01:19:52Bernie is a veteran. He served our country.
01:19:54I'm sorry, Bernie.
01:19:56I don't have the day off for you today.
01:19:58But I have something for you,
01:20:00dead lady.
01:20:02And a tall man.
01:20:06Go back and crawl into
01:20:08whatever hole you came out of, you filthy animal.
01:20:12I saw them.
01:20:16They took that little girl.
01:20:18Fucking bitch! What did you do?
01:20:20Where's Bella?
01:20:22He's obviously deranged. Or on drugs. Or both.
01:20:24A tall man.
01:20:26Did he have short, blonde hair?
01:20:28Athletic build?
01:20:32Nolan.
01:20:34She's working with Nolan.
01:20:36Where is she? Where's Bella?
01:20:38Tell me now!
01:20:40I...
01:20:46Oh! What the hell?
01:20:48Where's my daughter?
01:20:50Stop!
01:20:54Where is she?
01:21:02Where is she?
01:21:12Daddy?
01:21:18My little escape artist.
01:21:20You can come out now, Munchkin.
01:21:22It's safe.
01:21:24Daddy and Evelyn are here.
01:21:26Hi.
01:21:36This is ridiculous!
01:21:38It's not kidnapping if it's your own child!
01:21:42This is ridiculous!
01:21:44It's not kidnapping if it's your own child!
01:21:48It's over.
01:21:50It's finally over.
01:21:52Isn't me and Mommy gone for good, Daddy?
01:21:54She'll never bother you again, Munchkin.
01:21:56I want you both to know that
01:21:58I'm very ashamed for my part
01:22:00in Kendra's scheme.
01:22:02But you can't continue this fake marriage.
01:22:04You're right, Mother.
01:22:10Beverly Harper,
01:22:12you're the most loving, brave,
01:22:14and talented woman I've ever known.
01:22:16Your beauty is just dessert
01:22:18after a rich meal.
01:22:20My life fills full with you in it.
01:22:22Will you do me the honor of marrying me?
01:22:24And me!
01:22:32Julian Barlow,
01:22:34if I was to create a recipe
01:22:36for the bravest, smartest,
01:22:38most loving man, it would be you.
01:22:42Your wealth is not a dessert,
01:22:44but a mere appetizer.
01:22:46So, yes, I will marry you.
01:22:48And me too.
01:22:52I don't know what all that nonsense
01:22:54about food was,
01:22:56but the rest was lovely.
01:22:58I guess I'll give the girl a chance
01:23:00if she can make my son and grandbaby
01:23:02smile like that.
01:23:22So pretty.
01:23:28I helped make that.
01:23:30Yes, you did, Bella.
01:23:32Have you guys ever seen such a beautiful family?
01:23:34I'm so happy for you.
01:23:36Thanks, Bestie.
01:23:38Mommy,
01:23:40how about a cake fight?
01:23:42You're a girl after my own heart, Bella.
01:23:44Everybody,
01:23:46cake fight!
01:23:52Cake fight!
01:23:54Cake fight!
01:23:56Cake fight!
01:23:58Cake fight!
01:24:00Cake fight!
01:24:02Cake fight!
01:24:04Cake fight!
01:24:06Cake fight!
01:24:22Couldn't you have gotten me
01:24:24something more practical?
01:24:26This is going to be a bear to bake with.
01:24:28Only my wife would complain about a 15-carat
01:24:30flawless diamond being too big.
01:24:32Sorry.
01:24:34I'm not.
01:24:38God, I love you.
01:24:42Hey, Mr. Barlow.
01:24:44Hey, Miss Barlow.
01:24:46Who said I was changing
01:24:48my name?
01:24:52On the topic of change,
01:24:54I've been thinking.
01:24:56Bella needs a playmate.
01:24:58What do you think we give her a sibling?
01:25:00Just one.
01:25:02Foster kid here.
01:25:04I always dreamed of having a big family.
01:25:06Well, how big are we talking?
01:25:22I love you.
