00:00:00Bella?
00:00:03Bella?
00:00:06Where did she go?
00:00:08The gardener says Miss Bella's not on the grounds.
00:00:10She's disappeared again.
00:00:12Well, tell the design team to go big or go home.
00:00:15We're not building some quaint bed and breakfast.
00:00:18This is a billion-dollar, far-low resort on a private island off Dubai.
00:00:22We need to crush this.
00:00:24Crush! Crush! Crush!
00:00:27Steve, I have to call you back.
00:00:30How did you get in here, Bella?
00:00:33My little escape artist.
00:00:38What am I going to tell Mr. Barlow?
00:00:41Pulse alarm. She's here, everyone.
00:00:46Thank God. I only took my eyes off her for a second.
00:00:50She needs a leash.
00:00:52I'm not a dog.
00:00:54No, a dog behaves better.
00:00:56Daddy?
00:00:57Okay, everyone, let's get back to it.
00:00:59These decorations aren't going to put themselves up.
00:01:01Miss Delilah, I'm sorry. I will be hiring a new nanny soon.
00:01:05Well, how long do you think this one's going to last?
00:01:07She's scared off three in a year.
00:01:10I don't want a nanny. I want a mommy.
00:01:24I'm not Everly.
00:01:26Can you see? It's a circus out there, like a literal freaking circus.
00:01:29Oh my God, there's jugglers, there's clowns, there's even a man on stilts.
00:01:32Can you imagine having a birthday like this when you were just eight years old?
00:01:35Foster kid here. I used to blow out imaginary candles and dream of real cake.
00:01:42This is my favorite part.
00:01:46Somebody's a little too in touch with their inner child.
00:01:50When your mother proposed this blind date, I was a little hesitant.
00:01:54I just couldn't believe that any man can live up to the image that she painted.
00:01:59Yes, she's very good at talking me up.
00:02:02In your case, she really didn't do it justice.
00:02:06I'd love to slip away from the crowd and get to know you better.
00:02:10You're at my eight-year-old's birthday party.
00:02:12I wasn't interested before, but now I want you to leave.
00:02:19Wait for it.
00:02:23Why, hello, Mother.
00:02:25Julian, Bianca is hysterical and you have embarrassed me.
00:02:30Well, stop setting me up with random women.
00:02:32I'm not getting married again. Once was enough.
00:02:34Kendra and the race car driver have ended it.
00:02:37Right now, you have sole custody of Bella.
00:02:40But the courts favor the mother, Julian.
00:02:42You and I both know Kendra could show up at any time
00:02:45and demand that Bella live with her just to spite you.
00:02:49I'm not letting that witch anywhere near my daughter.
00:02:52Find yourself a wife and show the world a stable family.
00:02:56Not for your own happiness, but for your child's.
00:03:04Mother might be dramatic, but she's right about Bella needing a mom.
00:03:08Perhaps a fake wife would do.
00:03:12Got vanilla for you.
00:03:15What's your favorite flavor?
00:03:17Ah, chocolate.
00:03:19So, do you want to know what makes everything taste so good?
00:03:23The secret ingredient is...
00:03:28love.
00:03:39Girl, I'm so exhausted. I'm heading home. You coming?
00:03:41Let's stay and finish the engagement cake for tomorrow.
00:03:43Okay.
00:03:45Hey, Bernie!
00:03:47Let me grab you the day holds.
00:03:55Tell Rose and Pete I included the pecan cinnamon rolls just for them.
00:04:00Oh, my gosh! You scared me!
00:04:03Where did you come from, sweetheart?
00:04:05Where are your parents?
00:04:07Are you lost?
00:04:09What's your name?
00:04:11I'm Everly.
00:04:13And you don't want to tell me, huh?
00:04:16Guess I'll just have to guess.
00:04:19Everly.
00:04:21Everly.
00:04:23Everly.
00:04:25Everly.
00:04:27Guess I'll just have to guess.
00:04:29Your name is Olga.
00:04:33Gertrude.
00:04:35Prudence.
00:04:37Hazel.
00:04:38Constance.
00:04:39Phyllis.
00:04:40Henrietta.
00:04:42Bertha.
00:04:44It's Bella!
00:04:46The birthday girl.
00:04:48She has to stow away in the truck.
00:04:50Bella!
00:04:53You scared me, Bella Barlow.
00:04:56Sorry, Daddy.
00:04:58What were you thinking?
00:04:59I found my mommy!
00:05:04I'm so sorry. She's never done anything like this.
00:05:07I want Everly to be my mommy.
00:05:09Bella Munchkin, please.
00:05:12You know, my daddy has lots of money.
00:05:15All you have to do is marry him and be my mommy.
00:05:19Bella, you don't marry someone for money.
00:05:22You do it because you love them so much.
00:05:25And it feels like they're a part of you.
00:05:28Like you can't picture your life without them in it.
00:05:32I know you're supposed to be my mommy.
00:05:36I'm engaged to someone else.
00:05:39Come on, Bella.
00:05:41We've taken up enough of Miss Harper's time.
00:05:46So a hot guy and a cute little girl were like,
00:05:48come be my insta-family?
00:05:50The little girl was. The dad was kind of mortified.
00:05:53Bella reminds me of what I was like after the car accident.
00:05:56Kept going up to perfect strangers, looking for my parents.
00:05:59Just couldn't accept that they were gone.
00:06:06Hey, beautiful.
00:06:08I'm so sorry.
00:06:10I'm so sorry.
00:06:13Hey, beautiful. I miss you already.
00:06:16When are you back from your business trip?
00:06:18I'm back Monday. We'll see each other then.
00:06:21Are you calling me from the bathroom?
00:06:24No, the guests next door are just really loud.
00:06:27I gotta go. I love you.
00:06:34Hello, Earth to Everly.
00:06:37I was just thinking about what I told the little girl.
00:06:40All the reasons you marry someone,
00:06:42but I've never actually felt any of those things.
00:06:45Well, you better decide sooner rather than later.
00:06:47Well, Nolan and I have been together since high school.
00:06:50Loyalty counts for something.
00:06:52At least what we have is real.
00:07:00Okay, this hotel is huge.
00:07:02Where is the engagement party being held?
00:07:04Uh, restaurant.
00:07:06Okay, yes.
00:07:11I'm bored.
00:07:13I'm sorry, Munchkin, but after yesterday,
00:07:15I'm not letting you out of my sight.
00:07:17Bella was bad.
00:07:19Bella was very bad,
00:07:21but I'll take you to get ice cream if you're very good.
00:07:24I want cupcake.
00:07:26Nice try, kiddo.
00:07:41Hmm.
00:07:43That must be the bride-to-be.
00:07:45Hey, delivery for the lovely bride.
00:07:47Can I just get your signature on this really quick and...
00:07:54Oh, my gosh.
00:07:56Everly.
00:07:58Well, you haven't changed a bit since high school, huh?
00:08:02Still a pathetic orphan with no money?
00:08:05Or a teenager?
00:08:07Pathetic orphan with no money?
00:08:09Or taste?
00:08:11Olivia, is this your engagement party?
00:08:15Who would marry a raging bully like you?
00:08:17Everly, what are you doing here?
00:08:22Uh...
00:08:24Nolan, I...
00:08:26I don't understand.
00:08:27Isn't it obvious, you ignorant nobody?
00:08:31Nolan's been cheating on you.
00:08:34With me.
00:08:36With me.
00:08:42Is it true, Nolan?
00:08:44Yeah, I can explain.
00:08:45No, is it true?
00:08:48You've been sleeping with Olivia?
00:08:51You saw how she treated me.
00:08:52She made my high school life a living hell.
00:08:55You hate her just as much as I do.
00:08:58Well, if that's hate sex,
00:09:00then sign me up for a lifetime of it.
00:09:04Nolan's a sexy beast, aren't you, darling?
00:09:07Oh, but you wouldn't know about that, Everly.
00:09:10Being the pity fuck that you are.
00:09:13You set this whole thing up, didn't you, Olivia?
00:09:16Did you think you could date both of us?
00:09:18Marry both of us?
00:09:21No.
00:09:22Nolan, you have to choose.
00:09:25You can be with me and live the good life.
00:09:27Or...
00:09:29You could be with this dirty orphan.
00:09:32Who will always be poor.
00:09:34Pathetic white trash.
00:09:36Her entire life.
00:09:38And who will drag you down with her.
00:09:44I'm sorry.
00:09:46I'm sorry, Everly.
00:09:47I just, I can't be poor.
00:09:49I can't.
00:09:51I'm so sorry.
00:09:54This isn't happening.
00:09:56I'm in some kind of post-high school nightmare
00:09:58where the mean girl still wins.
00:10:04I don't like her.
00:10:05She's mean.
00:10:06Hello, where did you come from?
00:10:09Is she an evil witch?
00:10:11You little shit.
00:10:12Who the hell let this wretched brat in here?
00:10:14Hey!
00:10:15Watch your mouth, Olivia.
00:10:17You can't talk to me like that.
00:10:19I can say whatever the hell I want.
00:10:22And both of you, get out.
00:10:24And take this disgusting paper with you.
00:10:26It's garbage.
00:10:27Just like you.
00:10:32What are you, crazy?
00:10:33You could have hurt her.
00:10:34Too bad I missed.
00:10:39Oh my goodness.
00:10:41Get off me.
00:10:42Get off me.
00:10:43Get off me.
00:10:44Get off me.
00:10:45Get off me.
00:10:46Get off me.
00:10:47Get off me.
00:10:48Get off me.
00:10:52Choke on it, bitch.
00:10:58I'm gonna destroy you.
00:11:00Good luck with that.
00:11:02You already tried in high school,
00:11:03but I'm stronger now.
00:11:05Keep going with my blessing.
00:11:07Nolan, do something.
00:11:11Ever flee?
00:11:12Take it off her.
00:11:19Touch my kid and you're dead.
00:11:20Who the hell are you?
00:11:22I'm with her.
00:11:23Since when?
00:11:24That's none of your business.
00:11:28Ooh, hold still.
00:11:30You have some frost in there.
00:11:33David, just stop.
00:11:34Don't.
00:11:35It's Julian Varlow.
00:11:37Heir of Varlow Hotels and Resorts.
00:11:40He owns this very hotel.
00:11:42You're lucky I don't sue you both
00:11:43for attempting to assault a minor.
00:11:45I didn't know it was your kid.
00:11:47You know she's a poor girl.
00:11:48Hurting her is okay.
00:11:49This party's over.
00:11:50You two are banned for life
00:11:51from every Barlow property in the world.
00:11:56So this is what having someone
00:11:57stand up for you feels like.
00:12:03They were bad, Daddy.
00:12:05There's a lot of bad people out there.
00:12:07That's why you can't run off the way you did.
00:12:09But I thought I'd really want to be with her.
00:12:13You need some rest.
00:12:15Go to the car.
00:12:17I love you, Edwin.
00:12:23Thank you for protecting my daughter.
00:12:25Thank you for saving me
00:12:26from my cheating ex-fiancé.
00:12:33That sounds like a desperate man
00:12:35trying to win you back.
00:12:36Yeah.
00:12:38Not happening.
00:12:41Seems we have a problem, Miss Harper.
00:12:44My daughter's heart
00:12:45is set on you being her mother.
00:12:50You also have a problem
00:12:51with your ex not getting the message.
00:12:54I propose a pretend relationship.
00:12:57Like a fake marriage?
00:12:59Exactly.
00:13:00I can protect you from your ex-fiancé,
00:13:02and you can help me protect Bella
00:13:03from herself and my ex,
00:13:05if she comes back to me.
00:13:07Is your ex really that bad?
00:13:09Kendra makes your high school nemesis
00:13:11look like a teddy bear.
00:13:13Do we have a deal?
00:13:14What if you want to be with someone for real?
00:13:17I won't.
00:13:19I've sworn I'm not going to get married again.
00:13:29Yes, Mr. Barlow.
00:13:31You have a deal.
00:13:33I'm going to get married.
00:13:35You have a deal.
00:13:48Tomorrow night is the annual charity gala.
00:13:51Black tie.
00:13:52There, we'll introduce you to society.
00:13:54Well, um,
00:13:56why don't we start out slow?
00:13:58No, my mother will know
00:13:59if we don't show up as newlyweds.
00:14:01Didn't you say she lives in Paris?
00:14:03She has spies everywhere.
00:14:06Did you go to the gala with me?
00:14:09I don't know, Julian.
00:14:11I'm more flower than flair.
00:14:15We have a boutique at the hotel.
00:14:18I think the right dress
00:14:20will ease some of your stress.
00:14:22I'm still super uncomfortable
00:14:25with all this.
00:14:26I don't want to embarrass you at the gala.
00:14:29Are you always going to be this touchy
00:14:30about my money?
00:14:32Most women can't wait to spend it.
00:14:34I'm a baker, not a socialite.
00:14:37You've been hanging out with the wrong crowd.
00:14:42Maybe I have.
00:14:45Do you mind?
00:14:46My mother will want a picture of the newlyweds.
00:14:57Oh, one other thing.
00:15:00Don't fall for me.
00:15:04Same goes for you.
00:15:18Well, hello, Mother.
00:15:19You're married?
00:15:21Who is this girl?
00:15:23Her name is Everly Harper.
00:15:25She's a sous chef.
00:15:26Cordon Bleu trained,
00:15:27but she calls herself a baker.
00:15:29Ridiculous.
00:15:32Well, her parents died when she was six,
00:15:35and since then she's had no relatives.
00:15:38She became a ward of the state
00:15:40and bounced around foster care,
00:15:43never really having a permanent home.
00:15:45So she's an orphan without social connections.
00:15:48What are her financials?
00:15:49Well, she has some student loan debt,
00:15:51and her business is barely making it.
00:15:54Despite that, she's won numerous awards
00:15:57and competitions for her.
00:15:59Oh, my God, she's dirt poor.
00:16:02You've married a gold digger, Julian.
00:16:05Well, to be honest,
00:16:06my wealth is probably a bad thing in this case.
00:16:09She'd rather me be middle class.
00:16:11Well, then she's a fool.
00:16:13Who wouldn't want a billionaire husband?
00:16:15Well, Bella chose her to be her mother.
00:16:20Well, I'm just upset that my only son
00:16:22didn't inform me he was married.
00:16:24We'll be in touch.
00:16:30That went exactly as expected.
00:16:33Yay! I really get to be my new mommy!
00:16:36I should start calling you my little spot.
00:16:38When does she move in?
00:16:40Um, I'm not sure.
00:16:42We haven't had that discussion.
00:16:44And she's going to bake me
00:16:45more magical cookies filled with love.
00:16:48Has she done that before?
00:16:51Well, yes.
00:16:52Soon she'll be here
00:16:53and she'll bake you many things full of love.
00:16:56Yay! Yay!
00:17:03Wait.
00:17:04You fake Marion, Julie, and Barlow?
00:17:07I know. It's insane.
00:17:09Oh, my God.
00:17:10You do know that your hubby
00:17:11is worth like $100 billion, right?
00:17:13Very funny.
00:17:15He didn't.
00:17:17I'm not joking.
00:17:18Whoa.
00:17:19I've never seen that many zeros in one spot.
00:17:21Oh, my God. Bestie!
00:17:23You're literally married
00:17:24to one of the richest dudes on the planet.
00:17:26Olivia and her totes
00:17:27are totally gonna flip out.
00:17:28We have to go to the high school reunion next weekend.
00:17:30I thought you said we were skipping that.
00:17:32Uh-uh, uh-uh. Not anymore.
00:17:33We are going.
00:17:35Oh, come on.
00:17:36Please, please, please.
00:17:38Think about it.
00:17:40Yay!
00:17:41Why would someone like him
00:17:43even want a pretend marriage?
00:17:45I mean, he's charming,
00:17:47handsome,
00:17:49brilliant, and a good dad.
00:17:50Like, he could easily find a real wife.
00:17:52Maybe he's just avoiding commitment.
00:17:54You know, classic playboy move.
00:17:56He doesn't strike me as that type.
00:17:58Look at you,
00:17:59playing the little protective wife already.
00:18:01Shut up.
00:18:04So, when does Miss Barlow make her big debut?
00:18:07Tonight, actually.
00:18:10Care to help me find a dress
00:18:11for some exclusive gala?
00:18:13Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
00:18:15This is the most exclusive credit card
00:18:16of all credit cards.
00:18:18You can buy an island with this thing.
00:18:20I'm gonna be sick.
00:18:21Oh, my God.
00:18:22I have to find a way to give it back to him.
00:18:23Everly Harper,
00:18:25you will do no such thing.
00:18:26Can you please just be a little selfish
00:18:28for the both of us and live a little?
00:18:32You're right.
00:18:34Let's do this.
00:18:35Yay!
00:18:44Okay, I can't do this.
00:18:45$40,000 for a dress is insane.
00:18:47You could pay an entire village for that price.
00:18:49Yeah, crazy world we live in.
00:18:51Hello, ladies.
00:18:52My name is Pilar.
00:18:54Should we try something on?
00:18:56It appears to be your size,
00:18:57but I do have a seamstress on standby.
00:18:59Can I maybe rent it instead?
00:19:01Rent?
00:19:04That'll be $1,000 a day,
00:19:06plus a $4,000 security deposit.
00:19:09Can you afford that?
00:19:11Oh, my goodness,
00:19:12what manual labor job do you do?
00:19:14I'm a baker.
00:19:17Absolutely no rental for you.
00:19:19Those rough worker hands
00:19:20will snag the delicate fabric.
00:19:22There's a thrift store down the way
00:19:25that might be more at your speed.
00:19:27You don't understand.
00:19:28I'm attending the annual
00:19:29Celestial Charity Gala tonight.
00:19:30It's strictly black tie.
00:19:31Then what are you doing at Celestial,
00:19:33the most exclusive event in town?
00:19:35I know.
00:19:37You know what?
00:19:38Exclusive event in town.
00:19:39I know.
00:19:41You must be a waitress
00:19:42handing out caravans.
00:19:44Just buy it, then.
00:19:49This is a black card.
00:19:51Obviously.
00:19:53Held up at boutique.
00:19:55Not going too well.
00:20:00Well, well, well.
00:20:02This card belongs to Mr. Barlow.
00:20:04How did it end up in your hands?
00:20:06Mr. Barlow happens to be
00:20:07my best friend's husband.
00:20:10As if.
00:20:11You must have stolen it.
00:20:13Security!
00:20:14Arrest these scammers,
00:20:15frauds in effect, and fraud.
00:20:17Get your hands off of her,
00:20:19you animal.
00:20:22Let us...
00:20:26We're not thieves.
00:20:27You're making a mistake.
00:20:28The card was given to me.
00:20:29We're innocent.
00:20:35Get this trash out of my face.
00:20:40Let them go.
00:20:47Mr. Barlow, you're right on time.
00:20:49Okay, I just caught these scammers
00:20:50trying to charge $5,000 to your car.
00:20:53$5,000?
00:20:54When have you ever sold a dress
00:20:55under 30 grand?
00:20:56That was me.
00:20:58Just trying to rent it and said,
00:20:59no dress is worth that much.
00:21:01Are you kidding me?
00:21:02Don't fall for this innocent act.
00:21:04She's a clever scammer.
00:21:06Did you see anything you like?
00:21:08This one.
00:21:09But we were told to shop
00:21:10at the thrift shop.
00:21:12I'm Samantha, by the way.
00:21:13I've heard so much about you.
00:21:15Pleasure to meet you, Samantha.
00:21:17Pilar, my wife was looking
00:21:18to outfit herself for tonight's gala
00:21:20entirely through your boutique.
00:21:22Unfortunately, you cut up our card.
00:21:28So she...
00:21:30She really is your...
00:21:33Wife?
00:21:34At Barlow, we believe in treating everyone
00:21:36with respect and dignity.
00:21:39Isn't your lease up in 30 days?
00:21:42Mr. Barlow, I am so, so sorry.
00:21:44Okay, Mrs. Barlow, please, here.
00:21:47Take the dress. It's on the house.
00:21:49It's not necessary.
00:21:50Spill my account.
00:21:54And Barlow won't renew your lease.
00:21:56Not here, not anywhere.
00:21:58You're done, Pilar.
00:22:00I'll make sure you never work
00:22:01in retail again.
00:22:24I realize right now,
00:22:25this is the first time
00:22:26I'm seeing the real Evelyn.
00:22:28You've been hiding in plain sight.
00:22:30You're on it, you're on it.
00:22:31Look over here.
00:22:32Super boss woman for the night?
00:22:34What's her name, man?
00:22:36I got you.
00:22:37Good girl.
00:22:38What's her name?
00:22:51I feel like I don't fit in here.
00:22:53You don't fit in, Evelyn.
00:22:55You stand out.
00:22:56Don't be so obvious, Everly.
00:22:58You can't let yourself fall for him.
00:22:59It's true, everyone here is rich.
00:23:01But they're all human.
00:23:03Flaws and all.
00:23:06That's Chase and Daisy Harrington.
00:23:08They're in banking.
00:23:09I don't think you mean
00:23:10they work at the Teller window.
00:23:12Chase can often be found
00:23:13at the dog trunk.
00:23:14And Daisy's a lush.
00:23:16She's probably spiked
00:23:17her Wiley Vod cover.
00:23:18Julian, that's awful.
00:23:20And that's Lily Blake Dubois.
00:23:23And her second husband.
00:23:24He's 25 years her junior.
00:23:27Can men date women
00:23:28who are younger than them
00:23:29all the time?
00:23:30She was the PTA president.
00:23:31And he was in ninth grade
00:23:32with her son when they met
00:23:34when they started their affair.
00:23:36Oh, my God.
00:23:37Okay, stop.
00:23:38I get it.
00:23:39I am no longer intimidated
00:23:40by anyone in here.
00:23:41Mission accomplished.
00:23:44Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:23:48Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:23:52I'm too old for surprises, mother.
00:23:54You flew from Paris for nothing.
00:23:56Nothing?
00:23:58You're making a fool of yourself
00:24:00with this gold digger.
00:24:01Miss Barlow,
00:24:02let's get two things straight.
00:24:04One, my name is Everly Harper.
00:24:07And two, I am not a gold digger.
00:24:10I've earned my keep
00:24:11since I was six years old
00:24:12and I started my business
00:24:13from scratch.
00:24:14I don't need your money.
00:24:16But I would like your respect.
00:24:18So, I won't let anyone
00:24:20talk down to me
00:24:21even if you are Julian's mother.
00:24:23Impudent girl.
00:24:24Meddling mother.
00:24:28Aren't you going to say anything?
00:24:31Meddling mother.
00:24:32I couldn't have put it better myself.
00:24:36I don't know what you did
00:24:37to trick my son into marriage,
00:24:39but I have my eye on you, Everly Harper.
00:24:42One false move and you are through.
00:24:45All right, that's enough.
00:24:47Enjoy your evening alone, mother.
00:24:53Everly, I want to apologize.
00:24:57My mother was out of line.
00:24:59She didn't expect it either.
00:25:00She's so determined,
00:25:01she won't back down.
00:25:03We need to make sure
00:25:04she doesn't start digging
00:25:05into the details of our marriage.
00:25:07So, what's our next steps?
00:25:10I want you to move in with me.
00:25:14It was going to happen sooner or later,
00:25:16but I didn't want it to.
00:25:20It was going to happen sooner or later.
00:25:23Mother just expedited it.
00:25:25That goes to the kitchen.
00:25:28Living room.
00:25:29Living room.
00:25:30Mm-hmm.
00:25:31It's just all moving a little too fast.
00:25:33I mean, one minute,
00:25:34Julian's asking me to move in with him,
00:25:36and the next,
00:25:37movers are packing my stuff.
00:25:38But you got to love a man
00:25:39that takes action, you know?
00:25:40You are oddly chipper about all this.
00:25:42I mean, here I was,
00:25:43feeling bad about leaving you
00:25:44to find a new roommate.
00:25:45I don't know.
00:25:46I think I'm going to try
00:25:47living alone for a while.
00:25:48How can you afford that?
00:25:49The new landlord
00:25:50lowered everyone's rent.
00:25:51Since when?
00:25:52Since you became his fake bride.
00:25:55He knew that you felt bad for me,
00:25:57and so he bought the entire apartment complex
00:25:59and lowered everyone's rent.
00:26:01That's...
00:26:03That's...
00:26:04Insane!
00:26:06Everly,
00:26:07billionaires don't think
00:26:08like normal people, sweetie.
00:26:09This is your life now.
00:26:10You need to get used to it, okay?
00:26:18Are we going to have gazpacho for dinner?
00:26:20If it pleases Miss Bella
00:26:22to have gazpacho.
00:26:23Hello!
00:26:24Okay, what can I get you today?
00:26:27You're welcome.
00:26:35Shouldn't take me longer than two days
00:26:37to inspect the site in Indonesia.
00:26:39Are you sure you can watch Bella?
00:26:41I haven't hired a nanny yet,
00:26:42and she tires Miss Delaney out.
00:26:45Don't worry about us.
00:26:46You focus on work.
00:26:47Bella and I will be just fine.
00:26:48I'll take you to the bakery with me,
00:26:50so have a blast.
00:26:51Here's a detailed list of her routines,
00:26:54do's and don'ts,
00:26:55allergies,
00:26:56emergency contact information,
00:26:58all the information you'll ever need.
00:27:00Love soccer,
00:27:01allergic to strawberries,
00:27:02doctor's number.
00:27:04I'm impressed.
00:27:05I wouldn't have thought a CEO like you
00:27:07would be this hands-on with this kid.
00:27:08Well, you thought wrong.
00:27:10Bella means the world to me.
00:27:18Daddy,
00:27:19why are you staring at Emily like that?
00:27:22You like her.
00:27:24Sorry, she doesn't know what she's talking about.
00:27:26Sometimes kids have a way of knowing the truth.
00:27:29They also have a way of being annoying.
00:27:31Well, anyways,
00:27:32me and Bun Bun wanted to play airplane.
00:27:35All right, Munchkin,
00:27:36you have one minute.
00:27:38Yippee!
00:27:40Ready?
00:27:41Yeah!
00:27:42Let's go!
00:27:45Ready?
00:27:46Yeah!
00:27:51So this is what a happy family looks like.
00:27:54It looks so nice.
00:27:56I wonder if we could be a real family someday,
00:27:58just the three of us.
00:28:04Okay, chef,
00:28:05what's on the menu today?
00:28:07Chocolate cupcakes
00:28:09and chocolate donuts
00:28:11and chocolate cake.
00:28:13Oh, and chocolate chip cookies.
00:28:15I'm sensing a chocolate theme.
00:28:17Okay, it's time to get to work, chef.
00:28:19Whoopee, chef!
00:28:25Ta-da!
00:28:26What do you think, chef?
00:28:31I can taste the love.
00:28:32The what?
00:28:33The magic ingredient.
00:28:35I can taste it.
00:28:36That's good.
00:28:40Evelyn?
00:28:41Hmm?
00:28:42Do you like my dad?
00:28:44Of course I like him.
00:28:46He's a great guy and a good dad.
00:28:48So you could become my mommy for real?
00:28:51Bella,
00:28:52I don't know what the future holds,
00:28:55but I know you have
00:28:57a very special place in my heart, okay?
00:28:59Okay.
00:29:04Whoa, that was fast.
00:29:07Okay, time for a rest.
00:29:12Daddy!
00:29:21Oh, my God.
00:29:22I'm falling for him.
00:29:26Daddy!
00:29:28Did you miss me, Munchkin?
00:29:30So much, but Everly's the best.
00:29:32I got to be a chef.
00:29:34And we had a movie marathon.
00:29:36And I got to sleep in sheep tents
00:29:38in the living room.
00:29:39And we ate in the kitchen
00:29:41with Mrs. Delaney,
00:29:42who was all frowny,
00:29:43but then she was all smiley.
00:29:45I like the kitchen better
00:29:46than the dining room.
00:29:47Can we eat there from now on?
00:29:49I see you've made some changes.
00:29:51Very minor ones.
00:29:53Oops, did I say something bad?
00:29:55No, Munchkin.
00:29:56Daddy's just learning
00:29:57his little set in his ways.
00:29:58You can do everything, Dad,
00:29:59but you're a bad cook.
00:30:01And Everly's way better at girl stuff.
00:30:03You're like the prince,
00:30:04and Everly's the princess,
00:30:05and we can all live happily ever after.
00:30:08With Evelyn, of course.
00:30:11Hmm.
00:30:14Kids and their fairy tales.
00:30:16She'll understand that we can't be more
00:30:18than a pretend couple when she's older.
00:30:20Of course.
00:30:21She's still too little.
00:30:23We can't be more than a pretend couple.
00:30:25Right.
00:30:26It felt so real.
00:30:28I let myself forget it was a fake marriage.
00:30:30It can never be anything more.
00:30:33Oh, my God.
00:30:35You have to go.
00:30:36Oh, come on.
00:30:37Olivia and Nolan are gonna gossip about us
00:30:39if you do not show your face tomorrow.
00:30:40They're going to do that regardless.
00:30:41Okay, I'm sorry, Sammy.
00:30:42I thought about it,
00:30:43and I don't want to go to our high school reunion.
00:30:45Okay, hear me out.
00:30:46Just picture this.
00:30:47You walk in with your new,
00:30:48hot, billionaire husband.
00:30:50It's the perfect revenge
00:30:51for the mean girls
00:30:52that used to call us poor losers.
00:30:53No, I would never use Julian in that way.
00:30:56Wow.
00:30:57I'm so sorry.
00:30:58I'm so sorry.
00:30:59I'm so sorry.
00:31:00I would never use Julian in that way.
00:31:02Well, if the thing is,
00:31:03I already told them that you would be there with him.
00:31:06Look, okay, don't get upset.
00:31:08Don't get upset.
00:31:09It's just that Olivia posted
00:31:10that we were lying skinks,
00:31:11and then it kind of just blew up from there,
00:31:12and then all of a sudden...
00:31:13Samantha, you make everything ten times worse.
00:31:15Don't worry.
00:31:16I'll go with you.
00:31:17I can't let my wife be humiliated.
00:31:19I came by to take you to dinner
00:31:21as a thank you for helping me with Bella.
00:31:24Did he really mean that?
00:31:26His wife?
00:31:27You should take the day off tomorrow
00:31:29and prepare for yourself.
00:31:30I'll make the arrangements with the hotel spa.
00:31:32On one condition.
00:31:34Can you make the reservation for two?
00:31:37I can do that.
00:31:45I want to get my nails done, too.
00:31:47What color do you want to get, Bella?
00:31:49The exact same as you.
00:31:50I also want to get some for Bun Bun.
00:31:52He looks sly with those.
00:31:54You're so adorable.
00:31:56How could any mother abandon you?
00:31:59I wish you were really mine.
00:32:06Oh, my.
00:32:07Mr. Barlow said that you might need
00:32:09some help getting into it.
00:32:12I can't wear that, Miss Delaney.
00:32:14It's too beautiful,
00:32:15and definitely way too expensive.
00:32:17Nonsense, dear.
00:32:19Mr. Barlow said to tell you
00:32:21you're the only one that can do it justice.
00:32:26Now let's see it all yet.
00:32:35I want to thank you for the dress.
00:32:37I'll find a way to pay you back.
00:32:39Seeing you in it is payment enough.
00:32:42You are drop dead gorgeous, Everly.
00:32:45It's not me, it's the dress.
00:32:47Why do you do that?
00:32:49Why do you downplay your beauty?
00:32:51I don't like to draw attention to myself.
00:32:54You shouldn't have to dim your light
00:32:56to make others feel good about themselves.
00:33:11Mr. Barlow, sir,
00:33:13there is a visitor here demanding to speak with you.
00:33:16I'm not expecting anyone.
00:33:18It's your ex-wife.
00:33:25I put Miss Rossi in the guest room.
00:33:27Where's Bella?
00:33:28She's with Miss Delaney in the playroom.
00:33:30Good. We need to keep Bella away from Kendra.
00:33:34I have to deal with her.
00:33:35I'll join you at the reunion when I'm done.
00:33:37I can just not go.
00:33:38No, Kendra is not going to disrupt our plans.
00:33:40My driver will take you there.
00:33:42I promise.
00:33:47It's been a pleasure.
00:33:49It's been a pleasure.
00:33:52It's been so long, Julian.
00:33:54Not long enough. What do you want?
00:33:56I want my daughter.
00:33:58I want Bella.
00:34:06I heard Everly is coming to the reunion.
00:34:09I thought that she would never show her face here ever again.
00:34:13Everly? The foster kid weirdo?
00:34:16Yeah, well, she destroyed my engagement party,
00:34:18so I'm going to destroy her tonight.
00:34:20Didn't Amanda say she's married to Julian Barlow?
00:34:23What if he's going to come with her?
00:34:25He might fuck her,
00:34:27but a Barlow is not going to marry trash like her.
00:34:45She should be mine.
00:34:50I love you.
00:34:56Eyes on me, Nolan.
00:34:58They really did recreate senior prom.
00:35:00Yep, all the ways, the tacky decorations and the cheesy DJ.
00:35:04Last time I was here, I was with Nolan.
00:35:06My foster mom at the time helped make my dress, and it looked it.
00:35:09We didn't even get our first dance before Olivia told everyone I had an STD.
00:35:13That's right, and then Nolan couldn't take it and he bailed.
00:35:16We should have known then that he was a dick.
00:35:18Yeah, I forgave him.
00:35:19I stand up for Olivia, myself included at that time.
00:35:22Let's slay this bitch.
00:35:24I mean the dance, of course.
00:35:27That dress looks like it cost a fortune.
00:35:30What do you think, Olivia?
00:35:32You're a fashion expert.
00:35:34It can't be the nightingale of Hanoi.
00:35:37That dress is worth millions.
00:35:40It's just a cheap knockoff.
00:35:42Come on, girls.
00:35:43Let's give Everly a high school reunion she'll never forget.
00:35:47Let's give Everly a high school reunion she'll never forget.
00:35:52Hey.
00:35:53Where's your husband?
00:35:55Julian's on his way.
00:35:56Shut up, loser. No one's talking to you.
00:35:58Bitch.
00:35:59Give it up, Everly.
00:36:00We all know he got bored and dumped you.
00:36:06Like, okay.
00:36:08Did you just fucking shrug at me?
00:36:11Apparently, you've forgotten your place.
00:36:13Must be that dress giving you attitude,
00:36:15but it's a cheap knockoff just like you.
00:36:18I don't think it's a knockoff.
00:36:20It's a gift from my husband.
00:36:22Give it up, bitch.
00:36:24We all know you're lying your husband, your dress.
00:36:28I call bullshit.
00:36:29Grow up, Olivia.
00:36:31You're too old to still be a mean girl.
00:36:43Hey, no, no, no.
00:36:44Let go of me, Nolan.
00:36:46Get your hands off of her.
00:36:48Just because you're fucking a Barlow doesn't make you royalty.
00:36:52Take that fake dress off,
00:36:54or I'll take it off for you.
00:36:55What makes you think it's fake?
00:36:57You clueless bitch.
00:36:59I'm a fashion influencer.
00:37:02With 1.8 million followers,
00:37:05you expect me to believe that white trash like you
00:37:08are wearing the Nightingale of Hanoi gown
00:37:11valued at $10 million?
00:37:15That's why Julian grinned when I said I'd pay him back for the dress.
00:37:20Take it off.
00:37:25Hey!
00:37:26No!
00:37:27Get off of her!
00:37:31Let go!
00:37:33No!
00:37:34Nolan!
00:37:35No!
00:37:36Emily!
00:37:37No!
00:37:41Stop!
00:37:42Get away from my wife!
00:37:47Get away from my wife!
00:38:01I'm sorry I'm late.
00:38:02The dress is ruined.
00:38:04Please tell me it wasn't worth millions of dollars.
00:38:07I can't tell you that.
00:38:09Apologize to my wife now.
00:38:11We were just joking.
00:38:13You know, fooling around.
00:38:15My wife was on the ground soaking wet,
00:38:17dress torn.
00:38:19What you did was battery and harassment.
00:38:21My lawyer's not going to think that's funny.
00:38:23I sure as hell don't.
00:38:24Lawyers?
00:38:26Who the hell are you?
00:38:28That's Julian Barlow.
00:38:29He's one of the richest men in the world.
00:38:31Do you know how much this dress is worth?
00:38:34Every bead is a genuine, flawless diamond.
00:38:37Miss St. James, you just ruined a ten million dollar gown.
00:38:40Oh, shit.
00:38:42No.
00:38:44No.
00:38:45No.
00:38:46That can't be.
00:38:47You better start liquidating all your assets,
00:38:49including your parents' house,
00:38:50because the insurance company is coming for your ass.
00:38:52Then the police.
00:38:54Good luck finding a job in fashion
00:38:56after ruining one of the most famous dresses in the world.
00:39:00That's all your endorsement's leaving you.
00:39:04That's all your endorsement's leaving you.
00:39:06You did this.
00:39:08You set me up.
00:39:09You did it to yourself.
00:39:11Nolan, do something.
00:39:13I left the woman I love because you said we'd be rich
00:39:16and now you have nothing.
00:39:18You piece of shit.
00:39:20Nope.
00:39:24Don't do this.
00:39:26Please don't do this.
00:39:27I'm not the one you need to beg for forgiveness.
00:39:29Don't do this.
00:39:36I'm sorry, Everly.
00:39:38I never should have tormented you all of those years.
00:39:42You didn't deserve it.
00:39:44Then why did you do it?
00:39:46Why me?
00:39:50Why me?
00:39:51Because even with your shitty clothes,
00:39:54your terrible hair,
00:39:56you were still beautiful.
00:39:58Everyone could see it.
00:40:00I would kill to look like you
00:40:02and you treated it like it was nothing.
00:40:04So you hated me because I was pretty
00:40:07and didn't shove it in people's faces?
00:40:09That is so messed up.
00:40:12Well, I was right to hate you.
00:40:15Look at you.
00:40:16You bagged a billionaire without even trying.
00:40:19Everly is beautiful inside and out.
00:40:22That's what draws people to her.
00:40:24You're done here.
00:40:25I'm not going to push any criminal charges
00:40:27or this company will be reaching out.
00:40:29You're on the hook for that dress.
00:40:31Oh, my God.
00:40:32I never thought that I'd see this in a lifetime.
00:40:34Please pinch me and tell me that I'm not dreaming.
00:40:36If you are, so am I.
00:40:39You want to get out of here?
00:40:41Yes, please.
00:40:43Bitches.
00:40:44Who knew that high school reunions would be this fun?
00:40:51Thank you for what you did.
00:40:53I've never had anyone come to my rescue before.
00:40:56I enjoy doing it.
00:40:58You mad at me?
00:40:59No.
00:41:00I'm not mad at you.
00:41:01I'm mad at you.
00:41:02I'm mad at you.
00:41:03I'm mad at you.
00:41:04I'm mad at you.
00:41:05I'm mad at you.
00:41:06I'm mad at you.
00:41:07I'm mad at you.
00:41:08I'm mad at you.
00:41:09I'm mad at you.
00:41:10I'm mad at you.
00:41:11You matter to me, Everly.
00:41:15Me and Bella.
00:41:17Hey.
00:41:18Of course.
00:41:19I understand.
00:41:20Thank you again.
00:41:22Have a good night, Julian.
00:41:23Everly, wait.
00:41:25That came out wrong.
00:41:27What I meant was...
00:41:29I have feelings for you.
00:41:32But I don't want to lead you on.
00:41:34Kendra's betrayal of our marriage, it broke something inside of me.
00:41:38I don't think I can commit to another woman.
00:41:43I just want to be with you.
00:41:45I'm not asking for anything else.
00:41:47You're so amazing, Julian.
00:41:49And I like everything about you.
00:41:51You just...
00:42:09Sir, is that you?
00:42:11I heard a noise.
00:42:15Yes, Mr. Gibson.
00:42:17You can go to bed.
00:42:18Yes, sir. Good night, sir.
00:42:20Ma'am.
00:42:22That was embarrassing.
00:42:23I haven't got caught like that since I was a little school boy.
00:42:26You think he saw us?
00:42:27He probably did, but he's not going to say anything.
00:42:31I want nothing more than to take you upstairs right now.
00:42:35Me too.
00:42:36You're so honest, Debra Lee.
00:42:38It's one of the many things I admire about you.
00:42:40And although it's going to kill me...
00:42:44I want you to go to bed.
00:42:46You're too noble.
00:42:49No one's ever said that to me before.
00:42:53Good night, sweetheart.
00:42:57Now go.
00:42:59Before I change my mind.
00:43:03Did that just happen?
00:43:06Am I actually dating Julian Barlow?
00:43:14This is nice.
00:43:16Just holding your hand.
00:43:19What are we going to tell Bella?
00:43:20I don't want to get her hopes up.
00:43:22But we are dating now.
00:43:24Change of steps.
00:43:26We have to put her first.
00:43:28Have you always thought of others at the expense of yourself?
00:43:31That's why I was bullied so much growing up.
00:43:34And why people take advantage of me.
00:43:35Don't say that.
00:43:37You're the best person I know ever.
00:43:39And now you have me.
00:43:41And I promise I won't let anyone hurt you anymore.
00:43:51So you think you can replace me with this whore, Julian?
00:43:54Let's see how that works out when I get through with the both of you.
00:43:58So, this is your latest slut.
00:44:01Kendra, are you following me?
00:44:03I'm Bella's mother.
00:44:05I need to know what her father is doing.
00:44:07And who kissed him, me.
00:44:09So you fuck the help now, Julian?
00:44:11Who I'm with is none of your business.
00:44:13You gave that right up three years ago
00:44:15when you cheated on me with my best friend.
00:44:17Then you abandoned your daughter
00:44:19and went to Europe with some tennis pro at a club.
00:44:22That was ages ago.
00:44:24I don't know what you're talking about.
00:44:25That was ages ago.
00:44:27I've changed now.
00:44:29I'm ready to be a wife and a mother.
00:44:31And you can't let this homewrecker
00:44:33get in the way of what we can have.
00:44:35Everly is my wife now.
00:44:37And stay away from Bella.
00:44:39You don't have visitation rights.
00:44:42Oh, we'll see about that.
00:44:44I'm Bella's birth mother.
00:44:46That's never going to change.
00:44:49I can't lose my daughter or we'll...
00:44:51You won't. We'll fight it together.
00:44:56Hello, sir.
00:44:58What can I get for you today?
00:45:00I need to ask a favor of you.
00:45:02Sorry.
00:45:04No freebies for men with mean ex-wives?
00:45:06No ex-wife.
00:45:08Just one wife.
00:45:10Right in front of me.
00:45:12I'm still working.
00:45:15I'll have to kick you out
00:45:17if you're not a paying customer.
00:45:19Then I'll pay now.
00:45:21I guess just bought the entire store.
00:45:24I need help from my favorite cake baker.
00:45:27Bella's Elementary School is hosting a bake sale.
00:45:30And every family brings a homemade dessert.
00:45:33And they all compete for first place.
00:45:35Would you want to go with us?
00:45:38You want me to be a part of your family?
00:45:41In front of your neighbors?
00:45:43No.
00:45:45No.
00:45:47No.
00:45:48In front of your neighbors?
00:45:51Of course.
00:46:00No, you have to stir in the same direction
00:46:02clockwise 30 times.
00:46:04Wow.
00:46:06I had no idea you had to be so accurate.
00:46:08You do if you want to be the best.
00:46:12No, not like that. Like this.
00:46:19You are the worst student.
00:46:22I'm sorry I can't concentrate
00:46:24because my teacher's so hot.
00:46:39Everly and Daddy
00:46:41sitting in a tree.
00:46:43Can I ask
00:46:45if I can eat?
00:46:46I'm gonna get you.
00:46:48Come here.
00:47:06Hey, Bella.
00:47:08Remember me?
00:47:10No.
00:47:12I'm your mother.
00:47:14No, you're not.
00:47:16You little brat.
00:47:18You can't choose your mother.
00:47:20You're born with one and that's what you get.
00:47:22That's enough, Kindra.
00:47:24You're upsetting Bella and causing a scene.
00:47:26Whatever.
00:47:28Move aside.
00:47:30I'm going to win this bake sale
00:47:32and prove who the real mother is.
00:47:34Those are store-bought cookies.
00:47:36What is she thinking?
00:47:38No, she made those.
00:47:40Her family owns Rossi Cookies.
00:47:42They were franchised.
00:47:44They have stores in every country.
00:47:46She's a real talent.
00:47:48Her grandma's the baker.
00:47:50She uses the recipes.
00:47:52There's not one creative bone in her body.
00:47:57Oh, my God.
00:47:59That's amazing.
00:48:01I want to buy all of it.
00:48:03Who made this?
00:48:05Julian Barlow?
00:48:07I had no idea he was such a talented baker.
00:48:12Here.
00:48:14Try mine.
00:48:16It's renowned in the world of desserts.
00:48:19Not bad, but nowhere near the Barlow's.
00:48:21I'm telling you, you ought to taste it.
00:48:23It's simply magic in your mouth.
00:48:25I think we know who the winner is.
00:48:30Yay!
00:48:34You want to see magic?
00:48:36I'm going to make that bitch disappear.
00:48:38Abra-fucking-cadabra.
00:48:47Can't forget that.
00:48:49Top of Bella's birthday list.
00:48:51She would never forgive me.
00:48:53Well, aren't we the perfect little housewife?
00:48:55That is, until Bella is rushed to the hospital.
00:49:03Everly!
00:49:05Hi!
00:49:07So lucky to run into you here.
00:49:09Oh, how so?
00:49:11I owe you an apology for how weird I was to you earlier.
00:49:14In my defense,
00:49:16do you understand how it feels
00:49:18to see another woman raising a child?
00:49:20Do you have it in your heart to forgive me?
00:49:22It's Bella and Julian you owe an apology to, not me.
00:49:26Watch your back.
00:49:28There's a long line of women
00:49:30waiting to get their claws into Julian.
00:49:32Beautiful, sexy, sophisticated women.
00:49:36Who are suited to his lifestyle,
00:49:38pleasing his every want and desire.
00:49:41Is there some kind of threat?
00:49:44No.
00:49:46Just a cold, hard fact that you, Everly Harper,
00:49:50will never be more than a glorified babysitter to him.
00:49:54It's funny,
00:49:56because you'll never be more than a bitter memory to him.
00:50:00Now stop messing with our family.
00:50:03Next time, I won't be so nice.
00:50:08Next time,
00:50:10you'll be the psycho who drugged Julian's daughter.
00:50:17Can I ask you a question?
00:50:21Why did you choose me?
00:50:23Oh,
00:50:25where's this coming from?
00:50:27I mean, once Bella grows up and doesn't need a mom anymore,
00:50:31will you still want to be with me?
00:50:34Everly, sweetheart, this doesn't sound like you.
00:50:37It's just, I'm not like the society women you've dated in the past.
00:50:42What if you get bored with me?
00:50:47Imagine dating someone
00:50:49who barely eats because they're watching their figure
00:50:52and spends more time with their plastic surgeons than with their family.
00:50:56You mean these society women?
00:50:59You're so bad.
00:51:02I'm sorry.
00:51:04I let Kendra get in my head.
00:51:06When did you see Kendra?
00:51:11It's Bella's school.
00:51:13This is Julian Barlow.
00:51:16Emergency room.
00:51:18Uh-huh.
00:51:20I understand. I'm on my way.
00:51:22What's going on? Is Bella okay?
00:51:24The school nurse said that she was poisoned.
00:51:26Something she ate. Something about a lollipop.
00:51:35Bella is asleep.
00:51:37Fortunately,
00:51:39the lab results just showed that it was a common prescribed sedative
00:51:42that was on the lollipop.
00:51:44How does this happen? I don't understand.
00:51:46Have you had any threats
00:51:48recently or encountered any suspicious characters?
00:51:52I came as soon as I heard.
00:51:54How is our precious Bella?
00:51:56She's coming along.
00:51:58Poison?
00:52:00My God, what kind of monster would poison an innocent child?
00:52:03With a lollipop, no less.
00:52:05I'm sorry.
00:52:07Doctor, did you say lollipop?
00:52:09The perpetrator poisoned Julian and my daughter
00:52:12with a lollipop.
00:52:14Well,
00:52:16that's interesting
00:52:18because I ran into Everly at the bakery yesterday
00:52:21and I saw one of Bella's favorite
00:52:23rainbow-colored lollipops.
00:52:25Are you suggesting that I had something to do with this?
00:52:28You gave Bella that lollipop, did you not?
00:52:36I did, but...
00:52:38I can't believe this.
00:52:40Our precious Bella,
00:52:42our little angel,
00:52:44drugged by yet another baby.
00:52:46Wait, hold on. Bella's been poisoned before?
00:52:49Is this true, Julian?
00:52:51When she was 18 months old, I had a babysitter
00:52:53and I haven't been able to trust anyone
00:52:55since then, just you.
00:52:57But now I...
00:52:59Now what?
00:53:01I'll tell you what.
00:53:03You're not coming near Bella ever again.
00:53:06No, no, this can't be real.
00:53:08You know I would never hurt Bella.
00:53:10You know I love her like she's my own daughter.
00:53:12Oh, but she's not.
00:53:14She's ours.
00:53:16Julian,
00:53:18will you be calling security
00:53:20or shall I?
00:53:22Julian, will you be calling security
00:53:24or shall I?
00:53:29Everly, I'm sorry.
00:53:31I'm sorry for ever doubting you,
00:53:33even for a second.
00:53:35I know that you could never harm Bella,
00:53:37not because you're my wife,
00:53:39but because of your loving heart.
00:53:41Julian, what are you saying?
00:53:43She's dangerous!
00:53:45Look at the evidence.
00:53:47Everly bought the rainbow-colored lollipop for Bella.
00:53:49Who else could have tampered with it?
00:53:51Wait.
00:53:53How did you know it was a rainbow lollipop?
00:53:56No one mentioned what color it was.
00:53:59It's...
00:54:01No, you switched them
00:54:03at the bakery parking lot.
00:54:05That's why you were there.
00:54:07You drugged your own daughter just to frame me?
00:54:09What kind of sicko does that?
00:54:11You can't prove that.
00:54:12You used her medicine can.
00:54:14Julian, stop!
00:54:16That's not mine!
00:54:18She's been taking status since I met her.
00:54:20That's exactly what was found in Bella's system.
00:54:22It's...
00:54:24You psychotic bitch!
00:54:26First you tried to kill my daughter,
00:54:28now you're trying to frame my wife?
00:54:30It's common.
00:54:32It could be found from anywhere.
00:54:34It could have been anyone.
00:54:36It could have been you.
00:54:38It was you, wasn't it?
00:54:40I'm telling you, it wasn't mine!
00:54:43Thank God she's okay.
00:54:46The thought of losing her was too much to bear.
00:54:49We don't have to think about that.
00:54:51She has you.
00:54:53I have you.
00:54:55And we all have each other.
00:54:57Whatever comes our way,
00:54:59that's what family's for.
00:55:02That's what it means to love.
00:55:04And be loved.
00:55:06Exactly.
00:55:09Stop it.
00:55:11Stop it.
00:55:13We're in the children's ward.
00:55:15I'm pretty sure all these doctors and nurses
00:55:17know how babies are born.
00:55:19So am I.
00:55:22Mommy?
00:55:24Daddy?
00:55:26Brain check?
00:55:28Oh, you can count on it.
00:55:30Is that my little munchkin in there making noise?
00:55:35Welcome in.
00:55:37We're getting started.
00:55:39No.
00:55:41What, is there a rule against selling a cake to your ex?
00:55:43Come on, Everly.
00:55:45Look, Everly, I'm sorry.
00:55:47I made a big mistake, I'll admit that.
00:55:49But I've changed.
00:55:51I left Olivia, and I just want to start fresh.
00:55:53I want to do this again.
00:55:55Are you serious?
00:55:57Yes, it was all Olivia's doing.
00:55:59You know how manipulative she can be.
00:56:01And I only loved you the entire time.
00:56:03You think Julian's a multi-billionaire?
00:56:05You think he'd really go for someone like you?
00:56:06I mean, get real, Everly.
00:56:08If he doesn't love you,
00:56:10I do.
00:56:12We sadly die without you.
00:56:17Get the hell out of my bakery.
00:56:20You're a fucking bitch.
00:56:22No one's going to come to save you.
00:56:27Stay away from my wife!
00:56:29Last warning, stay away from her
00:56:31or I'll break more than just your arm.
00:56:33Motherfucker, if I can't have her,
00:56:34no one can.
00:56:41Thank you for stepping in, Julian.
00:56:43I wish I could be here all the time,
00:56:45but I can't.
00:56:47Nolan,
00:56:49it's going to be a problem.
00:56:51I can't exactly lock my doors.
00:56:53Don't work by yourself anymore.
00:56:55Make sure Samantha's with you.
00:57:00Something for the munchkins.
00:57:04My ex.
00:57:07I have to pick her up right now.
00:57:09We'll see you later?
00:57:11Stay alert.
00:57:28And the hits keep coming.
00:57:30First my ex, now his.
00:57:32When will we ever catch a break?
00:57:42We have to keep that from Bella.
00:57:44I'll get my lawyer
00:57:46to file a restraining order against Kendra this week.
00:57:48Maybe there's a way
00:57:50we can make peace with Bella's mom.
00:57:52We've tried.
00:57:54She's turned every attempt against us,
00:57:56including Bella.
00:57:58I can't risk losing my daughter.
00:58:02How can I help protect Bella?
00:58:04No, Everly, it's not your fight.
00:58:06Yes, it is.
00:58:08Contract or not, you and I are in this together.
00:58:10I can't stand by while you and Bella suffer.
00:58:32What if Bella wakes up?
00:58:34She hung her head years ago.
00:58:36I just kept it.
00:58:38I know.
00:59:02What are your thoughts
00:59:04on a family date?
00:59:06The three of us.
00:59:08You want to go on a picnic?
00:59:10No.
00:59:12No.
00:59:14No.
00:59:16No.
00:59:18No.
00:59:20No.
00:59:22No.
00:59:24No.
00:59:26No.
00:59:28No.
00:59:29You want to go on a picnic?
00:59:31I'll go wherever you'll take me.
00:59:37So where did you get Bun Bun?
00:59:39When I was three years old.
00:59:41Yep, we were outside
00:59:43and she saw a rabbit run across the yard
00:59:45and she looked at me and reached her hands out
00:59:47and I said, no, you can't have a wild animal.
00:59:49So she started crying.
00:59:51So naturally, I got her Bun Bun the next day.
00:59:53Naturally.
01:00:00Bella.
01:00:02My baby.
01:00:04Come to mom.
01:00:06What are you doing here?
01:00:08You look like a stalker.
01:00:10I'm still your mother
01:00:12and I brought your favorite food, strawberries.
01:00:14Everly loves me more than you
01:00:16and I love her too
01:00:18and I can't eat strawberries.
01:00:20Darling,
01:00:22that woman is just after daddy's money.
01:00:25You're lying.
01:00:27I hate you.
01:00:29You little rat.
01:00:31I'm your mother.
01:00:33No, you're not.
01:00:35Everly is my mommy.
01:00:37You're scary.
01:00:39You little rat.
01:00:41Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:00:43Mommy, daddy.
01:00:45Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:00:47Mommy, daddy.
01:00:49Kendra, what the hell?
01:00:51I'm trying to protect my daughter
01:00:53from this fucking bitch.
01:00:55Hey, watch your language in front of Bella.
01:00:57Strawberries?
01:00:59How am I supposed to know?
01:01:01You never let me see them.
01:01:03That's a lie. You abandoned her.
01:01:05Shut up, you lying gold digger.
01:01:07I'm twice the mother that you'll ever be.
01:01:09Bella.
01:01:11Come back, sweetie.
01:01:13She's overwhelmed. You're scaring her.
01:01:15You know nothing about my daughter
01:01:17but I know about you.
01:01:19You're just a foster kid.
01:01:21One step up from the gutter.
01:01:23Bella and I both know
01:01:25that Everly is the best thing
01:01:27to happen to this family.
01:01:29Sweetie,
01:01:31you can't possibly think
01:01:33that this poor substitute
01:01:35is better than a real mother.
01:01:37We have the same blood.
01:01:39You're part Rossi.
01:01:41You can't ask your daughter that.
01:01:43Shut up.
01:01:45Kendra, this isn't some game
01:01:47that you can win.
01:01:49This is Bella and Julian's lives.
01:01:51I don't know why,
01:01:53but you abandoned them.
01:01:55You trying to snatch them back
01:01:57just so you can win
01:01:59I know I don't deserve her
01:02:02but I found out last month
01:02:04that I'm infertile.
01:02:06I can never have another baby.
01:02:09Bella's it for me.
01:02:21I know she's done some bad things
01:02:24but she's still your mother, Bella.
01:02:26Why don't you go give her a hug?
01:02:30I don't really hate you.
01:02:33I know, baby.
01:02:36It's all my fault.
01:02:42You're right.
01:02:44I only wanted to win.
01:02:47You can win a game
01:02:49but you can never win someone's heart.
01:02:51You're very wise.
01:02:53Don't get me wrong,
01:02:55I don't want to be your friend.
01:02:57I'm just trying to leave my daughter
01:02:59in peace.
01:03:03Take care, Kendra.
01:03:05Maybe one day I'll let Bella write you.
01:03:07She's older.
01:03:10Bye, sweetie.
01:03:15She fell for my sob story.
01:03:17Stupid bitch.
01:03:19I won't stop until I get my man back
01:03:21and the kid with him.
01:03:23Oh!
01:03:25What's all this for?
01:03:28100th Annual International Bake Off.
01:03:31Sounds like a big deal.
01:03:33It's invitation only
01:03:35and I can't believe I got in.
01:03:37If I do well,
01:03:39it'll really help put the bakery on the map.
01:03:41Well, given how you rocked that bake sale,
01:03:43you've got this in the bag.
01:03:45That was nothing.
01:03:47I need a showstopper
01:03:49that's going to dazzle their taste buds
01:03:50and win over their hearts.
01:03:54Hmm.
01:03:56So what's the secret weapon?
01:03:58Vanilla rosemary five layer cake
01:04:00topped with a lavender buttercream
01:04:02and a hint of orange zest.
01:04:04Sounds like I need to clear some space
01:04:06on the mantle for that first place trophy.
01:04:08Cut it out!
01:04:10I'm trying to concentrate.
01:04:12Oh.
01:04:14Am I distracting you?
01:04:16I'm a sucker for a messy apron.
01:04:18Okay, fine.
01:04:20You can stay,
01:04:22but you have to make yourself useful.
01:04:24What's first, chef?
01:04:27Ladies and gentlemen,
01:04:29welcome to our
01:04:31100th Annual International Bake Off.
01:04:33Please find your seat.
01:04:35Our competition will start shortly.
01:04:42You got this, girl.
01:04:44We'll be in the front row cheering you on, okay?
01:04:45Thank you, Sammy.
01:04:47I'm going to go check my presentation one more time.
01:04:52Knock them dead out there, sweetheart.
01:04:57Good luck.
01:05:05There you are,
01:05:07falling nicely into my trap.
01:05:09Who do you think arranged the invite,
01:05:11you pathetic nobody?
01:05:16Hey, Everly.
01:05:18Ready to get crushed.
01:05:20Angel, what are you doing here?
01:05:22Are you stalking me?
01:05:24You look scared.
01:05:26You should be.
01:05:28I'm going to win that trophy
01:05:30and prove who's the better baker and mother.
01:05:33I'm infertile.
01:05:35I can never have another baby.
01:05:37So everything you said at the park was a lie.
01:05:40You're not infertile.
01:05:42You just can't stand that Bella chose you.
01:05:43You just can't stand that Bella chose me.
01:05:45I'm her fucking mother, bitch.
01:05:47You're a monster.
01:05:49And you're just an amateur
01:05:51who doesn't deserve to be here.
01:05:53Did you really think you earned a place
01:05:55in this competition?
01:05:57I'm the one who got the judges to invite you,
01:05:59and now Julian's going to see
01:06:01what a poor orphan loser you truly are.
01:06:04Bring it on, Rossi.
01:06:06My recipe has heart and soul,
01:06:08and they will beat your assembly line clap any day.
01:06:14Oh, yeah?
01:06:16Do you know what goes great with cake?
01:06:18What?
01:06:20Coffee.
01:06:29Kendra, what the hell?
01:06:32You better go get cleaned up.
01:06:34Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:06:36So unsanitary.
01:06:44Your knight in shining armor
01:06:46can't save your ass this time.
01:06:48Neverly.
01:06:50Our next competitor,
01:06:52Kendra Rossi.
01:06:57Hi, judge.
01:06:59This is my own
01:07:01one-of-a-kind original recipe.
01:07:05What?
01:07:07Oh, I see.
01:07:09I see.
01:07:11I see.
01:07:13A vanilla,
01:07:15rosemary,
01:07:17five-layer cake with lavender buttercream
01:07:19and a hint of orange zest.
01:07:21That's my cake!
01:07:25What are you talking about?
01:07:27You stole my recipe.
01:07:29A nobody accusing me,
01:07:31a Rossi,
01:07:33of cheating?
01:07:35How dare you?
01:07:37Man,
01:07:39you have impeccable taste in women
01:07:41because obviously you chose Everly,
01:07:43how did you end up with such a nightmare ex?
01:07:45I was young
01:07:47and stupid.
01:07:49Yeah, obviously.
01:07:51So what are we going to do to salvage this?
01:07:53Can't you just pull some strings or something?
01:07:55You're Julie and freaking Barlow for goodness sake.
01:07:57It's not that simple.
01:07:59I know Everly wouldn't want to win that way.
01:08:01Damn it.
01:08:03So what do we do now?
01:08:05Kendra can't get away with this.
01:08:08A nobody accusing me,
01:08:10a Rossi,
01:08:11of cheating?
01:08:13How dare you?
01:08:18You better go get cleaned up.
01:08:20Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:08:22So that's why you spilled coffee on me.
01:08:25So you could hack my laptop behind my back
01:08:27the same way you switched the lollipops behind my back
01:08:29when you poisoned Bella.
01:08:32That is a serious accusation.
01:08:35Now, can you prove that this cake is your creation?
01:08:38Here's your proof.
01:08:42We can't see anything.
01:08:44The screen is blank.
01:08:48We can't see anything.
01:08:50The screen is blank.
01:08:52What happened to my files?
01:08:54They're not there.
01:08:56As I said,
01:08:58this recipe is mine and mine alone.
01:09:00No, no, no, no.
01:09:02It's not true.
01:09:04Kendra Rossi, you're a thief.
01:09:06I think we've heard enough.
01:09:08Sir, I know this recipe, my recipe by heart.
01:09:09I can recite it from memory.
01:09:11I'm afraid that doesn't prove anything.
01:09:13Now, I think it's best
01:09:15that you leave the stage now
01:09:17before I have to disqualify you.
01:09:20Isn't that the baker
01:09:22from Sweet Escape Bakery?
01:09:24Not going to her shop, ever.
01:09:31Wait!
01:09:34Wait!
01:09:36Wait!
01:09:39This will prove the recipe is Everly's.
01:09:47Now, you're going to want to let it cool
01:09:49for about ten minutes.
01:09:51Hey, back on me.
01:09:53This is the important part.
01:09:55The last step is to lightly dust
01:09:57with a layer of orange zest,
01:09:59just enough to reach the edges.
01:10:01And then you're going to want
01:10:03to add a pinch of salt.
01:10:06And voila!
01:10:08You'll see the time stamp
01:10:10of this raw footage
01:10:12was taken two weeks ago.
01:10:14And speaking from experience,
01:10:16no one can make this cake
01:10:18exactly like my wife.
01:10:27Something's different.
01:10:28Taste for yourself.
01:10:37Salt.
01:10:39It's missing the salt.
01:10:41I didn't include it in my recipe notes.
01:10:43It was a last-minute, spur-of-the-moment addition.
01:10:45Totally spontaneous.
01:10:47And yet, it made all the difference in the world.
01:10:49Salt?
01:10:51Salt?
01:10:58Salt?
01:11:10Salt or not,
01:11:12this is no ordinary cake.
01:11:14And it could only come
01:11:16from the heart and soul
01:11:18of an extraordinary baker.
01:11:26You almost ruined my wife today!
01:11:28That's the last straw!
01:11:30Confess, or I'm calling the police!
01:11:32But I didn't.
01:11:34Okay, okay!
01:11:37I did it.
01:11:39I did it.
01:11:41All of it.
01:11:43Are you happy now?
01:11:45Dragging me in the mud like this
01:11:47in front of everyone?
01:11:49Julian, you broke my heart!
01:11:51You have to have a heart
01:11:53for it to be broken.
01:11:55How can you say that?
01:11:56A bitch gets into the picture
01:11:58and suddenly I'm nothing?
01:12:00Just some garbage you can throw away?
01:12:02What is so special about her, Julian?
01:12:04She's not prettier than me.
01:12:06She can't be better in bed than me.
01:12:08What do you possibly see in her
01:12:10that you don't see in me?
01:12:12Maybe I'm just a better baker
01:12:14than you, Kendra.
01:12:16Here.
01:12:18Have a taste.
01:12:20I don't want your stupid salt.
01:12:22Oh!
01:12:24Oh my god!
01:12:26It smells like a rotten potato chip
01:12:28and Bella could have made
01:12:30a better cake than that!
01:12:33I...
01:12:35I don't even know what to say
01:12:37about everything that's going on here.
01:12:39Say I can present my cake.
01:12:41That's all I came here to do, sir.
01:12:43Fair enough.
01:12:45The ingredients in my cake
01:12:47are pretty traditional
01:12:49in terms of regular cake ingredients.
01:12:51I like the rosemary because it tends
01:12:53to cut through the sweetness
01:12:54while balancing the orange zest.
01:12:56Aromatic flavoring
01:12:58that we really look for
01:13:00in a well-balanced cake.
01:13:02I also, not listed,
01:13:04I add a little bit of salt on top
01:13:06just to balance everything out
01:13:08and I hope you really like it.
01:13:13We have seen a lot
01:13:15of great bakes this year.
01:13:17But nothing in the history
01:13:19of this competition
01:13:21has ever compared
01:13:22to this year's
01:13:24first prize winner,
01:13:26Everly Harper!
01:13:28This year's first prize winner,
01:13:30Everly Harper!
01:13:33Congratulations, Miss Harper.
01:13:35Truly well-deserved.
01:13:38Would you excuse me?
01:13:44Oh, we did it, Samantha!
01:13:46We did it!
01:13:48No, Everly, you did this.
01:13:50Hold on.
01:13:52Listen to this.
01:13:54Orders are flooding in like crazy.
01:13:56No, no, no, no.
01:13:58I've got this. Trust me.
01:14:00Now get out of here.
01:14:02Go celebrate with your hubby.
01:14:04Yeah?
01:14:06I am so proud of you, Everly.
01:14:16Get lost.
01:14:18I'm more likely to stick a bitch
01:14:20than suck a dick right now.
01:14:22We both want the same thing.
01:14:24Yeah?
01:14:26What's that?
01:14:28Revenge.
01:14:30I've spent the last two weeks
01:14:32learning everything I can
01:14:34about Julian Barlow
01:14:36and Everly Harper's relationship.
01:14:38And I think what I found
01:14:40might interest you.
01:14:42Who the fuck are you?
01:14:44I'm someone that hates Julian,
01:14:46and I heard you're someone
01:14:48that hates Everly.
01:14:50So I have a plan
01:14:52for you.
01:14:57Am I doing it right?
01:14:59Those look great.
01:15:01Just squeeze your bag
01:15:03a little bit tighter.
01:15:05More icing equals more smiles.
01:15:07Okay.
01:15:09Time to switch to croissants.
01:15:11The chocolate filled kind?
01:15:13All different kinds.
01:15:15Can you go in the freezer
01:15:17in the back and get me
01:15:19two blocks of butter?
01:15:21Okay.
01:15:36You're coming with me, Bella.
01:15:38I'm your mother,
01:15:40not that whore.
01:15:42Everly!
01:15:44Save your breath, kid.
01:15:46She can't hear you anyway.
01:15:48Everly!
01:15:51Let go!
01:16:13Bella?
01:16:15Bella?
01:16:17Bella!
01:16:21Bella?
01:16:29Everly!
01:16:31Back here!
01:16:36Tips.
01:16:38Shh.
01:16:48This is Julian Barlow.
01:16:50I have your daughter,
01:16:52and if I don't get 200 million
01:16:54in cash by sundown,
01:16:56she won't see the sunrise.
01:16:58What did you do with Bella?
01:17:00Who is this?
01:17:0210 million.
01:17:04Unmarked bills split into
01:17:06two separate duffel bags.
01:17:08Let me talk to Bella.
01:17:10I need to know she's safe.
01:17:12Only after I get the money.
01:17:14Damn you!
01:17:16She's just a little girl.
01:17:18There's an abandoned campsite
01:17:20on the second floor.
01:17:26What are we gonna do?
01:17:28I'll call my bank,
01:17:30and I'll get the money within an hour.
01:17:32Okay.
01:17:35Hello?
01:17:37Anybody?
01:17:39Hello?
01:17:41What is she doing here?
01:17:43I need an explanation for this.
01:17:45Mother, now is not the time for this.
01:17:47I had to learn from Kendra
01:17:48everything.
01:17:50What is this?
01:17:52This is from my safe.
01:17:54Combination was Bella's birthday.
01:17:56Very sloppy of you, Julian.
01:17:58How could you lie to your own mother
01:18:00and present this fraud
01:18:02as if she were actually your wife?
01:18:04I knew she was a gold digger,
01:18:06but I didn't know she was a tramp for hire.
01:18:08Silence!
01:18:10This is not important right now.
01:18:12That is just a piece of paper, Mother.
01:18:14I have to find Bella.
01:18:16She's been kidnapped.
01:18:18And someone grabbed me.
01:18:21I blacked out,
01:18:23and when I woke up, she was gone.
01:18:26I have to get the ransom money together now,
01:18:28so if you two could please just...
01:18:30Just what?
01:18:32Stand aside and let you handle it?
01:18:34You brought this tramp into my daughter's home,
01:18:36and because of her,
01:18:38Bella's life is at stake.
01:18:40Ew.
01:18:42It smells.
01:18:44Did you just let common street trash walk in here?
01:18:46Don't talk about him like that.
01:18:48We're in a dark country.
01:18:50I'm sorry, Bernie.
01:18:52I don't have the day offs for you today.
01:18:54But I have something for you.
01:18:56That lady?
01:18:58I saw her.
01:19:00And a tall man.
01:19:02Go back and crawl into whatever hole
01:19:04you came out of, you filthy animal.
01:19:07I saw them.
01:19:11They took that little girl.
01:19:13Fucking bitch!
01:19:15What did you do?
01:19:16Where's Bella?
01:19:18He's obviously deranged.
01:19:20Or on drugs.
01:19:22Or both.
01:19:24The tall man.
01:19:26Did he have short, blonde hair?
01:19:28Athletic build?
01:19:31Nolan.
01:19:33She's working with Nolan.
01:19:35Where is she?
01:19:37Where's Bella?
01:19:39Tell me now!
01:19:41I...
01:19:42What the hell?
01:19:44Where's my daughter?
01:19:50Where is she?
01:20:06Daddy?
01:20:12My little escape artist.
01:20:15You can come out now, Munchkin.
01:20:17It's safe.
01:20:19Daddy and Evelyn are here.
01:20:31This is ridiculous!
01:20:33It's not kidnapping if it's your own child!
01:20:36This is ridiculous!
01:20:38It's not kidnapping if it's your own child!
01:20:42It's over.
01:20:44It's finally over.
01:20:46Isn't me and Mommy gone for good, Daddy?
01:20:49She'll never bother you again, Munchkin.
01:20:51I want you both to know that
01:20:53I'm very ashamed for my part in Kendra's scheme.
01:20:57But you can't continue this fake marriage.
01:21:00You're right, Mother.
01:21:05Everly Harper.
01:21:07You're the most loving, brave and talented woman I've ever known.
01:21:10Your beauty is just dessert after a rich meal.
01:21:14My life fills full with you in it.
01:21:17Will you do me the honor of marrying me?
01:21:20And me!
01:21:27Julian Barlow.
01:21:29If I was to create a recipe for the bravest, smartest, most loving man,
01:21:34it would be you.
01:21:35Your wealth is not a dessert, but a mere appetizer.
01:21:39So, yes, I will marry you.
01:21:42And you, too.
01:21:47I don't know what all that nonsense about food was,
01:21:50but the rest was lovely.
01:21:52I guess I'll give the girl a chance
01:21:55if she can make my son and grandbaby smile like that.
01:22:06Look at this.
01:22:08Do you see that?
01:22:17So pretty.
01:22:22I helped make that.
01:22:24Yes, you did, Bella.
01:22:27Have you guys ever seen such a beautiful family?
01:22:30I'm so happy for you.
01:22:31Thanks, Bestie.
01:22:33Mommy,
01:22:35how about a cake fight?
01:22:38You're a girl after my own heart, Bella.
01:22:40Everybody, cake fight!
01:23:03The End
01:23:18Couldn't you have gotten me something more practical?
01:23:21This is going to be a bear to bake with.
01:23:23Only my wife would complain about a 15-carat flawless diamond being too big.
01:23:28Sorry.
01:23:30I'm not.
01:23:33God, I love you.
01:23:37Hey, Mr. Barlow.
01:23:40Hey, Miss Barlow.
01:23:42Who said I was changing my name?
01:23:47On the topic of change,
01:23:49I've been thinking.
01:23:51Bella needs a playmate.
01:23:53What do you think we give her a sibling?
01:23:56Just one.
01:23:58Foster kid here.
01:23:59I always dreamed of having a big family.
01:24:02How big are we talking?
