00:00:00Shouldn't you go back to your wife?
00:00:14This party looks a lot more fun than the other one.
00:00:21Where is Eric?
00:00:22I'll be right back.
00:00:24Eric?
00:00:25It's time to cut the cake.
00:00:46What the hell?
00:00:49What the hell?
00:00:55What the hell?
00:00:57Our wedding is literally in progress right now.
00:01:00As in, your wedding with me.
00:01:02We, uh, lost track of time.
00:01:04Yeah, sorry, Layla.
00:01:06I told him to wait, but he just couldn't help it.
00:01:10Hey, watch it, Layla.
00:01:13How could you cheat on me during our wedding?
00:01:15Cheating? Who believes?
00:01:17This is an arranged marriage.
00:01:19I'm just here to get you pregnant.
00:01:21You get your grandpa's inheritance, and I get my cut.
00:01:26So stop being a bitch about it, okay?
00:01:28I need a baby, but it does not need to be with you.
00:01:32Oh, really? Your grandpa chose me.
00:01:35I would rather die than have your baby.
00:01:37You'll be crawling back to me by the end of the night.
00:01:42And then this will be the best decision I have ever made.
00:01:48That was the worst decision that I have ever made.
00:01:53How am I supposed to get pregnant if I don't have a husband?
00:01:58He did what?
00:02:00No, and now I can't have a baby.
00:02:06Layla, this is for your own good.
00:02:10Giving me an ultimatum for your inheritance?
00:02:12Making me marry Eric, really?
00:02:15How is that for my own good?
00:02:17I need you to have a stable family before I go, Layla.
00:02:21A husband, a child, to be with you when I'm not.
00:02:24You are not going anywhere.
00:02:30Your surgery is going to go well.
00:02:33I'll get to see your baby.
00:02:37Yeah.
00:02:45God, what am I going to do?
00:02:51I'll hire you a callboy.
00:02:54A what?
00:02:56A what?
00:02:57A callboy. Like, a male prostitute, but fancy.
00:03:02I know this company. They have the best of the best.
00:03:04I didn't know about that.
00:03:05No strings. You pay him, he gives you a baby.
00:03:09Done.
00:03:11Okay.
00:03:12It's a bartender.
00:03:14Two more shots.
00:03:16A tequila?
00:03:17No, no, no. Actually, can you...
00:03:20Can you make it for me?
00:03:25Cheers.
00:03:41Don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't.
00:03:46Why does everything have to suck today?
00:03:49Oh my God.
00:04:09I hate you.
00:04:10I know.
00:04:19I love you.
00:04:20I love you.
00:04:21I love you.
00:04:22I love you.
00:04:23I love you.

00:04:28I love you.
00:04:29I love you.
00:04:30I love you.
00:04:31I love you.
00:04:32I love you.
00:04:33I love you.
00:04:34I love you.
00:04:35I love you.
00:04:36I love you.
00:04:37I love you.
00:04:38I love you.
00:04:39I love you.
00:04:40I love you.
00:04:41I love you.
00:04:42I love you.
00:04:43I love you.
00:04:44I love you.
00:04:45I love you.
00:04:46I love you.
00:04:47I love you.
00:04:48I love you.
00:05:10Don't.
00:05:12I want to see your face.
00:05:14Just feel me.
00:05:44Ah!
00:05:57Ah!
00:06:14Ah!
00:06:45Layla Reed.
00:06:47The girl I've had a crush on since college.
00:06:51Thank God you didn't recognize me.
00:06:59That one is off.
00:07:00Oh my God, this is hot!
00:07:01Just make sure like everything is clean and neat.
00:07:05Is that Mr. Callaway?
00:07:07Sir!
00:07:09Sir!
00:07:10Morning, Victor.
00:07:11Good morning!
00:07:13Take the stairs.
00:07:16You smell good!
00:07:17Thank you so much.
00:07:18So do you.
00:07:19Sir, I didn't know you were staying on this property last night.
00:07:22All my hotels have over 5,000 rooms or so.
00:07:26We should see about getting that AC fixed.
00:07:28Oh, alright.
00:07:43Good morning, Mr. Callaway.
00:07:45Delilah, good morning.
00:07:51Good morning.
00:07:52Good morning.
00:07:53Good morning, guys.
00:07:54Straight up, please.
00:07:56Beautiful.
00:08:01Sir, are you leaving?
00:08:02Victor.
00:08:03Yes, sir.
00:08:04Could you send up breakfast to the upstairs?
00:08:06Yes, sir.
00:08:11Send up breakfast to the upstairs suite.
00:08:12Okay.
00:08:13Yes.
00:08:14All the best items.
00:08:15All the best.
00:08:16Ooh, and the new quiche special.
00:08:17Quiche.
00:08:18Alright.
00:08:19Perfect.
00:08:20And fresh fruit.
00:08:21Do fresh fruit, too.
00:08:22Okay.
00:08:23Orange juice and some champagne.
00:08:25Champagne.
00:08:26Alright.
00:08:27Sir, if I may ask, who are you?
00:08:32Entertaining?
00:08:33You may not.
00:08:35Oh.
00:08:36But also, don't forget that when it comes to coffee, variety is key.
00:08:39Okay, sir.
00:08:40And some cream and sugar.
00:08:41You know what?
00:08:42Yes?
00:08:43I'll just go with you.
00:08:44Make sure it's all perfect.
00:08:49Coming?
00:08:50Come on.
00:09:02I'll hire you a call boy.
00:09:06Oh, my God.
00:09:07I slept with a call boy.
00:09:11Oh.
00:09:18Hello?
00:09:21He left without saying goodbye.
00:09:24Of course he did.
00:09:25He's a call boy.
00:09:26What was I expecting?
00:09:29Why did he look so familiar?
00:09:32Come here.
00:09:39I'm sorry.
00:09:40Mm-hmm.
00:09:43Oh, my God.
00:09:45Laila?
00:09:51Babe, I told you it was her.
00:09:53I saw her with some guy in a tux.
00:09:55You spent the night here with another man?
00:09:58There you cheat on me.
00:09:59I'm sorry, cheat on you?
00:10:02Eric, you were having sex with her during our wedding.
00:10:06You know what?
00:10:07No, we are just married on paper.
00:10:09How about you and I just respect each other's privacy?
00:10:13Yeah?
00:10:14So, you hooked up with a stranger to get back at him?
00:10:19How pathetic.
00:10:21Who was it?
00:10:22Are you really that desperate?
00:10:25What will dear grandpa think of this on his death bed?
00:10:28Oh, we should totally tell him what our sweetheart is up to.
00:10:32Hey.
00:10:34What the hell is going on here?
00:10:44What the hell is going on here?
00:10:47Wait.
00:10:49That's him.
00:10:50The guy with Laila last night.
00:10:51The fuck are you?
00:10:55Wow.
00:10:56You got a full costume on in broad daylight.
00:10:59Did you hire a stripper?
00:11:01Did you pay this guy?
00:11:02Oh, that'd explain it.
00:11:04I mean, why else would anybody want to sleep with that?
00:11:08Bite me.
00:11:12Good morning.
00:11:17You.
00:11:18I'm sure this is the biggest tip you've ever seen in your life.
00:11:21Do me a favor and call the cops.
00:11:23The cops?
00:11:25That man is a stripper.
00:11:27Or worse, a male prostitute.
00:11:30You're supposed to be a five-star hotel.
00:11:34So, you need to come with us.
00:11:40Mr.
00:11:41Shh.
00:11:42Get them out of here.
00:11:43Yes.
00:11:45You guys need to leave now.
00:11:46What the hell is going on?
00:11:47Wait, what?
00:11:48You got the wrong fucking guy.
00:11:49He's right there.
00:11:50Don't fucking touch me.
00:11:51I know the owner.
00:11:52I know Matthew Galloway.
00:11:53You have the wrong guy.
00:11:54This isn't fucking over.
00:11:56Fuck you.
00:12:02How did you do that?
00:12:05So, are you hungry?
00:12:07I, uh, bought this for us.
00:12:11You, you got this for me?
00:12:15Uh, yeah.
00:12:16I figured you might be hungry.
00:12:19I thought that you just...
00:12:21Just left.
00:12:22No, of course not.
00:12:23You haven't eaten.
00:12:24No, right.
00:12:25I, I haven't paid you yet.
00:12:26Oh, no.
00:12:27Uh, don't worry about the money.
00:12:28I, I just...
00:12:30Who are you?
00:12:34Um...
00:12:36Uh...
00:12:52Mr. Galloway.
00:13:03Always an honor.
00:13:04Take care.
00:13:08Hey, Hank.
00:13:09Good morning, sir.
00:13:10How are we?
00:13:11Can we, uh, go to the office, please?
00:13:13Uh, yes, sir.
00:13:23Hello?
00:13:24Hi.
00:13:26Are you, uh, enjoying the hotel room?
00:13:28Um, yeah.
00:13:30Duh.
00:13:31Thank you for not letting me drive home drunk last night.
00:13:34Yes.
00:13:36How are we going to tell Layla?
00:13:43Hey, hey, hey.
00:13:44What's wrong?
00:13:45I'm meeting an agent to hire Layla McCoy.
00:13:47Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:13:48What?
00:13:49I'm meeting an agent to hire Layla McCoy.
00:13:51Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:13:52What's wrong?
00:13:53So Layla needs to get pregnant, right?
00:13:55Or her grandpa's going to cut her off.
00:13:56But Eric freaking cheated on her with Gina.
00:13:58Wait, wait.
00:13:59Eric cheated on her on their wedding night?
00:14:01Yes!
00:14:02God, keep your voice down.
00:14:03Eric's such an asshole, so she's totally done with him now.
00:14:06And I suggested hiring a call boy for the night.
00:14:09You know, an in-person sperm donor, a professional escort.
00:14:12Wait, like a...
00:14:13You're going to have her sleep with a stranger?
00:14:14A professional.
00:14:16It'll be fine.
00:14:17What would you have me do?
00:14:20What if she doesn't have to know who it is?
00:14:26What if I do?
00:14:28You!
00:14:29It keeps her safe.
00:14:30She doesn't have to know.
00:14:33You're serious.
00:14:37Okay.
00:14:41I know you did this for her.
00:14:43How are we going to tell Layla?
00:14:46How are we going to tell Layla?
00:14:48Look, we...
00:14:49We don't.
00:14:50Um...
00:14:51Layla can't know that it was me, alright?
00:14:53She's always associated me with Eric.
00:14:55And...
00:14:56Well, she's never wanted anything to do with Matthew Calloway.
00:14:59Oh, please.
00:15:01Everyone in college loved Matthew Calloway.
00:15:04The golden boy.
00:15:06Who has it all.
00:15:07Alright, well, not her.
00:15:09Look, we'll...
00:15:10This was a one-time thing.
00:15:11We'll find another way to help out Layla.
00:15:13No more random call boys, Catherine.
00:15:15Not for a girl like Layla.
00:15:17She's good for that.
00:15:18Okay, Mr. Calloway.
00:15:20You're the boss.
00:15:22Thanks so much, Catherine.
00:15:25Sir, you have a 10am with one of the shop owners on Maple Street?
00:15:30Oh, is this the one that didn't want to relocate?
00:15:33Yes, yes.
00:15:34She is the only one left.
00:15:36We can't get clearance to build our new location without her agreement.
00:15:40Well, we'll just make her an offer that she can't refuse.
00:15:43Yes, sir.
00:15:44We will get her off our street at all costs.
00:15:47Yes, sir.
00:16:03Hey, Mum.
00:16:05Hello?
00:16:06How's the newlywed?
00:16:07Good.
00:16:08I thought you were at chemo, Grandpa.
00:16:10And the only thing keeping me going is you getting married.
00:16:14So, tell me, how was it?
00:16:17What the hell?
00:16:21It was great.
00:16:22It was perfect.
00:16:23It was great.
00:16:24It was perfect.
00:16:25It was great.
00:16:26It was great.
00:16:27It was great.
00:16:28It was great.
00:16:29It was great.
00:16:30It was great.
00:16:31It was great.
00:16:32It was great.
00:16:33It was perfect.
00:16:34I just wish that you could have been there.
00:16:36I really wish that you'd let me push the date for you.
00:16:39No, you don't want an old sick man there.
00:16:41I want you to get to work on making that baby.
00:16:45Look, I just had to stop by the store really fast to ship an order out.
00:16:49I have to get to a meeting and then I can come see you.
00:16:52Still trying to save Chapter's bookstore.
00:16:55You really are your parents' kid.
00:16:58I see so much of them in you.
00:17:00Raising you was the greatest comfort in my life.
00:17:07I can't wait to leave everything to you and your kid.
00:17:10Let's get you healthy again, okay?
00:17:12I love you.
00:17:13I love you too.
00:17:31Hey, Kat.
00:17:33This is crazy, but could you give me the number for that call boy?
00:17:41If we want the Maple Street location to work, then we need Chapter's bookstore to relocate.
00:17:45Well, I'm sure it's okay, sir.
00:17:47Everyone has a price.
00:17:50So, listen, I have a very important client coming today, so when she arrives,
00:17:54I'd love you to be very welcome.
00:17:56Hello, Ms. Reed. Welcome to Callaway Offices.
00:17:59We'll work on that.
00:18:00Yes, hello, this is...
00:18:02Are you the call boy from last night?
00:18:10Wow!
00:18:12Print calls.
00:18:13Oh, they happen.
00:18:14Just so disrespectful.
00:18:16I'm going to take this really quick.
00:18:18Did I hear...
00:18:20Did I hear something?
00:18:23I'm going to take this really quick.
00:18:25Did I hear a call boy?
00:18:27Yes. No.
00:18:29Um...
00:18:31How may I help you?
00:18:32I need us to keep having sex until I'm pregnant.
00:18:37How do I get myself out of this?
00:18:39I need you to keep having sex with me until I get pregnant.
00:18:44Um...
00:18:45You know, I actually don't think that I can do that.
00:18:48You see, I just have a really large clientele that I have to take care of, so...
00:18:53And I just don't think that I'm going to be able to make the time to do that.
00:18:58Well, everybody has a price.
00:19:00So, name yours.
00:19:02Ms. Reed, I just don't think it's the best idea.
00:19:07That's not what I felt like this morning.
00:19:09I...
00:19:10Son of a...
00:19:11Actually, about that, I have a really important business meeting.
00:19:14So, how about we discuss this tonight?
00:19:178 p.m. in person.
00:19:19Okay. Let me check my schedule.
00:19:21I'll text you.
00:19:30Ms. Reed, welcome to the Callaway Group.
00:19:33We have been expecting you.
00:19:35Oh.
00:19:39Ms. Reed, allow me to introduce the chairman and CEO of the Callaway Group, Matthew Callaway.
00:19:45It's good to see you.
00:19:46We've met.
00:19:48Oh, shit.
00:19:49She recognized me.
00:19:51We went to college together.
00:19:53Mr. Callaway has such a way of making himself known.
00:19:58I think he dated just about every single girl in our school.
00:20:01That's not true.
00:20:02He's also very close with my amazing husband, Eric Price.
00:20:05That's also not true. We're not friends.
00:20:07You know, I think that says a lot about his character, actually.
00:20:10You know, Eric actually booked the Callaway for our wedding venue.
00:20:13Which is a pretty fine choice, if I might add.
00:20:15Which has become the most dramatic place on earth for me.
00:20:17Which goes to show that I'm pretty set on not moving my bookstore
00:20:21so that you can build another one of your horrendous hotels on top of it.
00:20:24I think you mean that, miss.
00:20:25No.
00:20:26Well, great. This meeting is gonna go great.
00:20:29Ms. Reed, please follow me.
00:20:33Please have a seat.
00:20:40So, what seems to be your main concern here, Ms. Reed?
00:20:44My main concern, Mr. Callaway, is that you're trying to buy out my mom's life's work.
00:20:51Destroy it.
00:20:52No, I think you greatly misunderstand us.
00:20:54I mean, you see, we offer really generous packages to all the local businesses on the street to relocate.
00:20:59I mean, it could be even somewhere more lucrative.
00:21:01That's not the point.
00:21:02My parents built that store from scratch.
00:21:05Every piece of wood, every brick, every stroke of paint.
00:21:08It was my mother's dream.
00:21:10It was...
00:21:11It was the one thing they left me after the accident.
00:21:15Is this why she desperately needs her grandpa's money?
00:21:19It is my duty to protect it.
00:21:24All of it.
00:21:25Right where it is.
00:21:26All of it.
00:21:27Right where it is.
00:21:28Ms. Reed, with all due respect, you won't be able to pay back the loans you took out for the store.
00:21:34People don't read physical books anymore.
00:21:36It's all about audio.
00:21:38It would be in your best interest to cash out.
00:21:40You know, you talk about having my best interest, but you didn't even bother to offer me a glass of water.
00:21:48Big corporations like you have no heart, and that, that is my concern.
00:21:53Men like you have no heart.
00:21:55Have no heart.
00:21:56I came here to prove my point.
00:21:58Chapter's bookstore is not going anywhere.
00:22:09Layla! Layla!
00:22:11Mr. Calloway?
00:22:13Listen, I'm sorry. I did not know that Eric was gonna fuck everything up.
00:22:17But you were at our godforsaken wedding.
00:22:19Because it was at my hotel.
00:22:21Because you're friends, so he booked it.
00:22:23Look, Eric lied. We're not friends.
00:22:27He only ever gets a hold of me if he needs or wants something from me.
00:22:30Okay, so could you please not be so hostile?
00:22:34I'll stop being hostile when you stop coming from my bookstore.
00:22:37Now see, that is not personal.
00:22:39Layla, that's just, that's business, alright?
00:22:42Your business is right in the way of how I'm taking-
00:22:44And I'm gonna keep at it until the day I die.
00:22:46Or until you go broke.
00:22:49You know what? I don't have time to deal with your bullshit.
00:23:00Oh my god.
00:23:02Now I can never tell her the truth. She hates me.
00:23:14That's okay. We have about five minutes before he's supposed to get here.
00:23:17Hi. I have a reservation.
00:23:19Uh, yes. I, uh, do apologize.
00:23:22Because the bar is booked out for a private event tonight.
00:23:25I'm sorry. Would you mind just double-checking?
00:23:27My boss's boss's boss is having a very special-
00:23:31Oh! Uh, here he is.
00:23:33Uh, Mr. Mac-
00:23:35Mark.
00:23:37Yes. Uh, Miss. This is Mr. Mark Campbell.
00:23:41You look beautiful.
00:23:42Hi.
00:23:43Doing okay?
00:23:46Shall we?
00:23:51That word.
00:23:59Man, rich people are weird as shit.
00:24:10I wasn't sure what you'd want, so I got a little bit of everything.
00:24:14Mr. Campbell, you seem very well-connected here.
00:24:18I just have a very, very satisfied client.
00:24:21Clearly, if you're able to rent out an entire five-star hotel bar.
00:24:26Do you do this for every client?
00:24:29No.
00:24:32Just you.
00:24:34And this.
00:24:36Oh, I actually can't do that.
00:24:39You see, role-play is my trademark.
00:24:42Can't ever reveal my identity.
00:24:46Okay. I did not know that that was a thing.
00:24:50Yeah, it's very common.
00:24:53So, enough about me. Let's talk about you.
00:24:56So let me get this straight.
00:24:58You want to get pregnant, and you don't want to do that with your husband.
00:25:02Long story short, my husband is practically a ghost, and I need to have a baby.
00:25:09So, I actually drafted up a contract.
00:25:17A contract?
00:25:18Contract.
00:25:19Basically, I need to get pregnant ASAP, but I do have a business.
00:25:24And it keeps me very busy, and my schedule's a little unpredictable.
00:25:33I'm sorry, five thousand a week? Five grand a week?
00:25:36Until I get pregnant.
00:25:38She'll go broke like this. I can't accept the money.
00:25:42Layla, I'm flattered.
00:25:44I don't know if I can. I mean, I have so many clients that I gotta take care of, you know.
00:25:50And I'm just busy through the week.
00:25:53Please.
00:25:54Look, I could do this elsewhere, but I would really rather do this with someone who isn't a stranger.
00:26:02And I'm not a stranger.
00:26:04I don't know. You just seem familiar.
00:26:07I can't say no when she's looking at me like that.
00:26:14I'm sorry. This is, um, stupid.
00:26:17I'm just gonna have Catherine find me another...
00:26:21No, no. Um, I'll do it.
00:26:23Don't worry about paying me right away.
00:26:25Just, I'd rather you not go broke over something like this.
00:26:33Right now.
00:26:34Right now.
00:26:36Mark Campbell.
00:26:45Let's, um, let's go make a baby.
00:26:48Okay.
00:27:04Wait.
00:27:10Sound on.
00:27:12How did you do that?
00:27:15How did you do that?
00:27:17I guess I'm just full of surprises.
00:27:19But this is a pretty damn good hotel, I must say.
00:27:24Just my thoughts.
00:27:28Miss Layla Reed, what'd you do with the honor of this dance?
00:27:35I'm not much of a dancer.
00:27:38I'm not much of a dancer.
00:27:41It's okay. I...
00:27:43Just call me.
00:28:24Matthew Calloway.
00:28:26The Callboy.
00:28:28What the hell am I doing?
00:28:38What is it? It's six in the morning.
00:28:40Sir, sorry, but you have a meeting with the investor from France at 6.30 a.m.?
00:28:45Shit.
00:28:46Would you like me to prepare a meeting room on the property, or...
00:28:49No, no, just cancel it.
00:28:51What?
00:28:52Sir, we could lose the 20 million in funding.
00:28:55I don't care. Just tell them I'm sick or something.
00:28:58Figure it out.
00:28:59Sir, but...
00:29:00Okie dokie.
00:29:30The Callboy.
00:29:48Oh shit, what do I do?
00:29:57Hello?
00:29:58Is this Miss Reed?
00:29:59This is Dr. Lucas.
00:30:00You need to get to the hospital as soon as you can.
00:30:03This is Dr. Lucas.
00:30:05You need to get to the hospital as soon as you can.
00:30:07Your grandfather's gone through surgery. We need you here as soon as possible.
00:30:11Yeah, I'll be there in 20...
00:30:15Hey, what's wrong?
00:30:17It's my grandpa.
00:30:21I gotta go.
00:30:24Laila!
00:30:31Hank, Laila Reed is leaving Callaway. Follow her.
00:30:35Hank, Laila Reed is leaving Callaway. Follow her.
00:30:48I got it.
00:30:57Oh, look who decided to show up.
00:31:00Where's Grandpa?
00:31:01Where are your manners?
00:31:03I'm your aunt, not your secretary.
00:31:05Grandpa's in surgery.
00:31:07Well, the doctors think that he's not going to make it.
00:31:10Personally, I think it's kind of funny that he's still alive.
00:31:12Like, you know, isn't he like 500 years old?
00:31:14How about you choke on that candy you spoiled brat?
00:31:18Watch your mouth, you little cunt.
00:31:20Don't you lecture my son.
00:31:28You always think you're better than everybody else, don't you?
00:31:32Just like your annoying mother.
00:31:35Don't you dare talk about my mother.
00:31:41Put that shit away.
00:31:44Great kids you have.
00:31:46Dad always favored your side of the family.
00:31:49Never figured out why.
00:31:51Really, Aunt Kelly? Never?
00:31:54Tell you what.
00:31:56I saw the will Dad drafted, leaving you everything.
00:32:01Who knows what shit you've been whispering in his ears.
00:32:04But I am not letting it go.
00:32:06I guess it's a good thing it's up to Grandpa then, isn't it?
00:32:09Says who? He's not here to confirm anything, so...
00:32:13What did I miss?
00:32:15Eric. Eric, sweetheart.
00:32:22What are you doing here?
00:32:24If you want any of your inheritance, you better play nice.
00:32:27Let go of me.
00:32:30So soon after the wedding, and you're already being a bitch to Eric.
00:32:34It's okay, Aunt Kelly. She's having a rough week.
00:32:37I'm so sorry about Grandpa.
00:32:39Grandpa is fine. He's not dead.
00:32:42I'm just trying to be nice. You don't have to be such a bitch about it.
00:32:44Wouldn't be the first time.
00:32:46You may be Dad's favorite in the family,
00:32:49but without his will, you'll get nothing.
00:32:54Miss Reed?
00:32:55How's my dad?
00:32:57He's fine. We moved him to the ICU. He just needs quiet.
00:33:03We can only take one family member.
00:33:06I'll go.
00:33:09I'll go.
00:33:11I'm George Reed's daughter. Surely I should see him first.
00:33:15You haven't been to a single one of his treatments.
00:33:18Don't mind my wife. She's irrelevant.
00:33:20None of you care about him.
00:33:22I'll go.
00:33:28Listen, bitch.
00:33:30I know your little bird brain only seems to care about your fucking bookstore,
00:33:34but I want my money.
00:33:36We had a deal.
00:33:38You give me a baby, and I won't stop until I fucking get it.
00:33:41I am not having a baby with you.
00:33:44Your grandpa's gonna die, and I'm gonna get my kid.
00:33:47Get off of me.
00:33:49Stop!
00:33:51Do not fucking touch her.
00:33:53Do not fucking touch her.
00:33:58Do not fucking touch her.
00:34:00Come here.
00:34:02What the fuck, Matthew?
00:34:04Look at me. Apologize to her right now.
00:34:06Hold on.
00:34:08Please do it again.
00:34:10Apologize to her.
00:34:12Come on, guys. Come on.
00:34:14This is a hospital, not a boxing ring.
00:34:18Mr. Calloway, I'm sorry I didn't recognize it was you.
00:34:21Your father did the world a great service by building this wing.
00:34:24Thank you, sir.
00:34:25We're so grateful.
00:34:27What can we do for you?
00:34:28Listen, move George Reed to a private ICU.
00:34:31And this is his granddaughter, Layla Reed.
00:34:35Limit the guest list to just her.
00:34:38Uh, limit the guest list to just her.
00:34:40Anything for you, Mr. Calloway.
00:34:42Let's get you to your grandpa.
00:34:44I'm here at the end of a devastating boxing loss.
00:34:47Natalia, please tell me how you feel.
00:34:51Layla lost her parents, Kelly.
00:34:54You still have Nick and your husband.
00:34:57She has Eric and she'll have a baby soon.
00:35:00Why does she get your inheritance, too?
00:35:02It's not fair.
00:35:04I just want the best for my granddaughter.
00:35:07I'm not signing anything.
00:35:09It's just not fair.
00:35:11Not fair?
00:35:13Things have never been fair for Layla.
00:35:15Giving her everything is the least I can do for her.
00:35:18Okay.
00:35:20Grandpa, I'm here.
00:35:22The adults are having a conversation.
00:35:25Get out.
00:35:27No.
00:35:28Ma'am, it's time for you to go.
00:35:30Who the hell are you?
00:35:31Did you not hear the nurse?
00:35:33One immediate family member.
00:35:38Miss, I'm going to have to ask you to leave.
00:35:40You hear that?
00:35:41Now leave us alone.
00:35:44You hear that?
00:35:45Now leave us alone.
00:35:47I meant you, miss.
00:35:49What, me?
00:35:51I'm his daughter.
00:35:53We're moving Mr. Reid to a VIP room
00:35:55and you're not on the visitation list.
00:35:57Please leave.
00:35:58What VIP room?
00:36:00He can't afford that.
00:36:02I will have security remove you.
00:36:09You are not getting a penny.
00:36:14Hey.
00:36:19Hey.
00:36:22Don't you scare me like that ever again.
00:36:26Not going anywhere.
00:36:32I have never, ever been so humiliated.
00:36:35Who was that pretentious asshole?
00:36:37It was fucking Matthew Calloway.
00:36:38He inherited the Calloway crew.
00:36:40He's one of the richest guys in town.
00:36:41Like mega rich.
00:36:43He's supposed to be my best friend.
00:36:44I don't know why the fuck he just hit me.
00:36:46Well, if he is actually your friend,
00:36:48you should be able to find out.
00:36:50Mom.
00:36:51Shut up, Nick.
00:36:53As you can see, the surgery went well.
00:36:55We were able to remove the tumor completely.
00:36:58Your grandpa's relief is palpable.
00:37:06Coffee?
00:37:07Yes.
00:37:17It's the least I could do.
00:37:18I actually really didn't have to do any of this.
00:37:22Unless this is one of your tricks
00:37:25to get me to give up my bookstore.
00:37:28Layla.
00:37:30It was more than just business.
00:37:32Then what is it?
00:37:34What are you even doing here?
00:37:35I was just passing by.
00:37:36The ICU.
00:37:38Yeah.
00:37:40You know, checking up on my dad's legacy.
00:37:43You know how it is.
00:37:44I know how it is.
00:37:47Yet you're still trying to tear down my family legacy.
00:37:52Layla.
00:37:55Look, it just seems like
00:37:57you're biting off a little bit more than you can chew.
00:37:59Okay, and what I mean is
00:38:02when it comes to your family,
00:38:04you know,
00:38:05maybe taking a step back from the bookstore might be a good idea.
00:38:08Don't tell me about how I should handle my family.
00:38:12You don't know me.
00:38:14You never gave me a chance.
00:38:16No!
00:38:30This feels…
00:38:31He feels so familiar.
00:38:35No way.
00:38:36Matthew can't be Mark.
00:38:38Don't be silly, Layla.

00:43:20I am.
00:43:21I'm so sorry.
00:43:22You know, you are trying to get pregnant, so maybe you shouldn't drink so much.
00:43:35Or maybe you should fix me up, Doc.
00:43:41You know, water would probably fix it.
00:43:43There's water downstairs.
00:43:46We should probably get you some water.
00:43:49Leila.
00:43:50What's wrong?
00:43:51What's up?
00:43:52Hey.

00:43:57Leila!
00:43:59Hi.
00:44:00Yes.
00:44:01Mr. Callaway?
00:44:03Yes.
00:44:04If you could bring up some Advil, some Gatorade.
00:44:17Probably.
00:44:18Definitely.
00:44:19Some fresh clothes for Miss Reed and myself.
00:44:28That'd be great. Oh, and um
00:44:31If you have any masks, that would be awesome.
00:44:33Sir, a mask? What mask?
00:44:35Any you got
00:44:37Sir?
00:44:38Hi Victor
00:44:40What is that smell?
00:44:42You know what, don't worry about it.
00:44:43Is this uh, all we had? Onesies?
00:44:46Sir, you gave me no time. Is this or hotel uniform?
00:44:49You know what? It's perfect
00:44:59Mark, I'm really, really sorry.
00:45:04Hey, it's okay.
00:45:07If you charge a cleaning fee, I'm happy to pay it.
00:45:12No, no. Look, it's okay. It happens all the time.
00:45:18Really?
00:45:19Absolutely.
00:45:20You've had a client throw up on you before?
00:45:22So many times, it's silly.
00:45:25You're a liar.
00:45:28It's really nice to be cared for though.
00:45:32Of course.
00:45:33Why did you drink so much?
00:45:36I don't want to burden you with all my bullshit.
00:45:42No, hey. I can do so much more than this.
00:45:51Come on, let me show you.
00:45:53My favorite place is open tonight.
00:45:55Let's go.
00:45:56Now?
00:45:57Yeah, don't change.
00:45:58What?
00:45:59You'll love it.
00:46:05I'm fine, thank you.
00:46:10Where are we going?
00:46:11Let's see.
00:46:13Hey, you're the hotel manager.
00:46:17Victor, yes.
00:46:18I'm Leila. I had my stupid wedding here.
00:46:22Oh, Miss Reed.
00:46:23Oh, this is my friend.
00:46:25Friend.
00:46:26We're just friends.
00:46:27Mark Campbell.
00:46:28Yeah, but Vic and I go way back too.
00:46:31I've been a long-time client of the Callaway.
00:46:33We've been friends for years. Isn't that right?
00:46:37Amigos, yes.
00:46:38Amigos.
00:46:39That's right.
00:46:40Well, I gotta go guys, but nice to see you, Miss Reed.
00:46:44Wait, are you just now leaving work?
00:46:46It's the weekend.
00:46:48Oh yes, I was on my way out.
00:46:49Oh my God, that Matthew Callaway has you working every single day.
00:46:52You poor thing, I'm so sorry.
00:46:54You must be exhausted.
00:46:55No, no, no.
00:46:56He is such a piece of work.
00:46:57He just infuriates me.
00:46:59Mr. Callaway has a great character and personality.
00:47:04Sounds like a great guy.
00:47:06You know, I think he's a real asshole.
00:47:11Well, you guys have a great night, okay?
00:47:15Actually, you know what?
00:47:16We were just getting ready to go as well.
00:47:18I was just looking for my car.
00:47:20Oh.
00:47:25You drive a Rolls Royce?
00:47:33Who are you?
00:47:35No, I was looking for my car, which I think Vic is actually holding onto my key for me.
00:47:40Your car?
00:47:41Listen, I need to borrow your car.
00:47:42Sir, but that's my car.
00:47:43I know, I know, but listen to me.
00:47:44What?
00:47:45No, no, no, listen to me.
00:47:46Sir, this is crazy.
00:47:47I know, I'll bring it back safely.
00:47:49No, no, sir, are you out of your mind?
00:47:51No.
00:47:52What?
00:47:54Listen.
00:47:55I will bring it back.
00:47:56What?
00:47:57Is everything okay?
00:47:58I absolutely need it.
00:47:59You ready?
00:48:00Yeah.
00:48:01Absolutely.
00:48:02Let's go.
00:48:03After you.
00:48:04Thanks so much for watching that, Vic.
00:48:06Bye, Ms. Reed.
00:48:10Sir, you have to unlock the car with your keys.
00:48:14That's how cars work.
00:48:18It's a new feature that they just added.
00:48:24Please drive slow, slow.
00:48:27I will.
00:48:28It's my car, so.
00:48:29My insurance is not good.
00:48:33How am I going to get home?
00:48:41Okay.
00:48:49Thank you kindly.
00:48:50You're so welcome.
00:48:54Let's see.
00:49:11You don't drive much, do you?
00:49:13It's not my car.
00:49:15What?
00:49:16New car.
00:49:19Okay.
00:49:20You came all prepared.
00:49:23Victor, thank you so much.
00:49:25For you, any day.
00:49:29Cheers.
00:49:39Hey.
00:49:43Thanks for bringing me here.
00:49:45You're welcome.
00:49:49I figured this would make you happy.
00:49:51And I...
00:49:53I didn't know if you wanted to talk about anything.
00:49:57You don't have to, at all.
00:49:59I just want you to feel like somebody cares.
00:50:02It's, um...
00:50:04My grandpa.
00:50:06Hmm.
00:50:08He got cancer.
00:50:11I'm sorry.
00:50:12But he got this grand idea.
00:50:15I should get married and have a baby.
00:50:19Hello.
00:50:20Indeed.
00:50:21Yeah.
00:50:22Wow.
00:50:23Yeah, grandpa really went for it.
00:50:26So that's why I'm here.
00:50:28But, um...
00:50:31His face lights up when he thinks about it.
00:50:34You know?
00:50:36Like, I see hope in his eyes and I just...
00:50:40I don't want to take that away from him.
00:50:42Hey.
00:50:44It's going to be okay.
00:50:48You have a good heart, Layla Reed.
00:50:52You have a good heart, Layla Reed.
00:50:56Your grandfather, he sounds like a good man.
00:50:59He's really cool.
00:51:01I think I was like...
00:51:03Four or five.
00:51:04I was young.
00:51:05Young and a little stupid, annoying little kid.
00:51:07You were probably...
00:51:08Chucky doesn't...
00:51:09No, no, no.
00:51:10Chucky doesn't turn into this.
00:51:11Okay?
00:51:12He used to make me wear this.
00:51:13Every Saturday morning.
00:51:14Toe nails.
00:51:15Now I'm a toe nail with a bird mask.
00:51:17Go on!
00:51:18Right.
00:51:19This is fun.
00:51:20Oh!
00:51:21They're everywhere!
00:51:23I want you, you, and you.
00:51:25Dead.
00:51:28My damn feet!
00:51:48Layla Reed.
00:51:52Eric Price does not deserve you.
00:51:55At all.
00:52:02What?
00:52:06I never mentioned that his name is Eric.
00:52:18How did you know his name was Eric?
00:52:26I'm sorry, Layla.
00:52:28But I lied.
00:52:30I lied to you.
00:52:32I...
00:52:33I...
00:52:36I looked into you.
00:52:38Before I took you on as a client.
00:52:41Why would you do that?
00:52:43It's just a standard background check.
00:52:45All my co-workers, they all do the same.
00:52:50But I saw that you were married to this Eric guy.
00:52:53He didn't seem like good news.
00:52:55But it was none of my business.
00:52:56And I figured that you wouldn't want to talk about it.
00:52:59So...
00:53:01I lied.
00:53:03And I'm sorry.
00:53:05Could you please forgive me?
00:53:11I forgive you.
00:53:15But...
00:53:16Only if you promise you're not an asshole.
00:53:19Because I have plenty of assholes in my life already.
00:53:24I promise.
00:53:25Oh, God.
00:53:26Why don't I tell her that I am one of those assholes?
00:53:30You look tired.
00:53:34Okay.
00:53:35Alright.
00:53:36I'll pack up.
00:53:38Okay?
00:53:40Let me help you up.
00:53:41Alright.
00:53:43Oh!
00:53:45Oh!
00:54:16Hey!
00:54:17Two of you over there!
00:54:18What are you doing out here?
00:54:20This area is restricted.
00:54:22We need to see some IDs.
00:54:24IDs?
00:54:26Well, I can't see my ID.
00:54:27We're gonna run.
00:54:28What?
00:54:29You can't run when there are cops.
00:54:30That's illegal.
00:54:32Don't look!
00:54:33Come on!
00:54:34Sir, we're gonna need you to remove your mask and get dressed.
00:54:37Stop!
00:54:38Hey!
00:54:39Stop it right there!
00:54:43Forget it!
00:54:44Go, go, go!
00:54:45Okay, okay, okay!
00:54:50He did what?
00:54:51I guess I shouldn't be surprised that he's, like, running from the cops, right?
00:54:54He's a cowboy.
00:54:56Make sense?
00:54:57Girl, it's because he's lying about who he is.
00:55:00And...
00:55:02You're still not pregnant.
00:55:04That's proving to be harder than I thought.
00:55:07So, let me get this straight.
00:55:08You two have been hooking up non-stop and will keep hooking up until you are pregnant?
00:55:16Uh, yeah, I mean...
00:55:18Something like that.
00:55:20And you haven't seen his face?
00:55:22I can't see his face.
00:55:24It's part of his... thing.
00:55:26Layla! I mean, hooking up with a stranger?
00:55:28That's so out of character for you.
00:55:30I mean, what is it about him?
00:55:32He's good.
00:55:34He's...
00:55:35He's good.
00:55:39I don't know, I guess...
00:55:42I feel like I've known him for... forever.
00:55:46You... like him?
00:55:49Yeah, you know, I guess I do.
00:55:53That is... terrible.
00:55:55Hm?
00:55:57Hm?
00:55:59Uh, terribly... awesome.
00:56:02What about the store? The deal with Matt, didn't it... fall through?
00:56:06It's weird.
00:56:08He emailed me.
00:56:10And he said that he has some new deal he wants to talk about.
00:56:13So we're gonna have a meeting next week.
00:56:15Oh my god, he's in love with you.
00:56:17What?
00:56:18Uh, nothing.
00:56:20Um, can I borrow this?
00:56:22You know, it's really not borrowing if you never bring it back.
00:56:25Well, it's not like anyone's gonna come in and buy anything!
00:56:28Oh, you're funny!
00:56:38What?
00:56:47What do you want now?
00:56:49Kat?
00:56:51Kat, you gotta stop stealing my books!
00:57:04Oh, well.
00:57:05Empty as ever, I see.
00:57:06What are you doing here?
00:57:08For a local bookstore that doesn't even have a website?
00:57:11Yes, but Chypre's bookstore has art.
00:57:14Sir, this is a multi-million dollar investment.
00:57:18You guys remember when we had that?
00:57:20Art?
00:57:24Chypre's bookstore has art.
00:57:27You guys remember when we had that?
00:57:29Art?
00:57:31Gary? Remember?
00:57:33My name is Joey.
00:57:34Of course it is.
00:57:35I'm Gary.
00:57:36Of course you are.
00:57:37Sir, with all due respect, art doesn't generate ROI.
00:57:40We need to be realistic about building our new location.
00:57:43Talk to you later, the devil's here.
00:57:45Sir, as you can see, the numbers just don't make sense.
00:57:49Devil?
00:57:53It's Eric.
00:57:57Uh...
00:57:58We gotta run.
00:57:59What?
00:58:00Yep, gotta go.
00:58:02Keep up the good work!
00:58:06What are you doing here?
00:58:08Wow.
00:58:10Your stock is so old.
00:58:14I can literally see dust.
00:58:16Probably like you.
00:58:18I'm here for you to beg me to come back.
00:58:20In person.
00:58:23What makes you think that I want you back?
00:58:25Oh, come on, Layla.
00:58:27Your store is dying, your grandpa's dying,
00:58:29and without your inheritance, you have nothing.
00:58:31So let me get this straight.
00:58:32You want me to be your wife
00:58:34while you have your little girlfriend on the side?
00:58:36On the side?
00:58:38I'm not gonna be on the side.
00:58:40Who do you think you are?
00:58:42Now, ladies, there's no need to fight over me.
00:58:44There's plenty of me I've got around.
00:58:46Ew.
00:58:48No, Eric, we're done.
00:58:50Facts.
00:58:55You've been served.
00:58:57I don't want anything to do with you anymore.
00:58:59I'm sorry.
00:59:00I don't want anything to do with you anymore.
00:59:02And I would much rather lose my inheritance
00:59:04than be fake married to you for one more circus.
00:59:07Divorce?
00:59:09Your grandpa's really not gonna like that.
00:59:11I can't wait to leave everything to you and your kid.
00:59:14I love you.
00:59:16I love you, too.
00:59:18Grandpa wants what's best for me,
00:59:20and you are the furthest thing from that.
00:59:22Really? Divorce?
00:59:24Because without me, there's no baby, there's no inheritance.
00:59:26Your grandpa's gonna despise you
00:59:28because you'll be a fucking failure.
00:59:30It's the truth, though,
00:59:32that you are a lying, cheating, disgusting...
00:59:36Bitch!
00:59:39Who the fuck do you think you are?
00:59:45Get out of my store.
00:59:49Get out of my store.
00:59:51Out of this shithole.
00:59:53It's not gonna be open much longer.
00:59:55I guess it doesn't matter if I do this, then.
01:00:01Get out.
01:00:16Get out.
01:00:18You're nobody.
01:00:20Without me, you're nothing.
01:00:22Get the fuck out of my store!
01:00:24I'm gonna call the fucking police!
01:00:26Get out!
01:00:27What, are you telling them all about your stupid-ass books?
01:00:32Wow, you're gonna be so pretty.
01:00:41Fuck your bookstore.
01:00:58What are you doing to my business partner?
01:01:04The Callaway Group
01:01:06is looking to acquire
01:01:08Chapters Bookstore.
01:01:10What is he talking about?
01:01:12What are you talking about?
01:01:15Since when?
01:01:17Since when?
01:01:19Since when?
01:01:21Since when?
01:01:23Since when?
01:01:25Since when?
01:01:28We're gonna incorporate it into the hotel.
01:01:30We're gonna keep everything as is.
01:01:32Wait, that's the dumbest shit I've ever heard.
01:01:34Nothing's gonna change.
01:01:37Eric, stop pretending that you and I are still friends.
01:01:40You and I haven't been friends for a very, very long time.
01:01:44Now look, I've been tolerating you for as long as I can,
01:01:47but I'm not gonna do that anymore.
01:01:49Really? What the fuck?
01:01:51You're gonna throw away our friendship over this bitch?
01:01:53I see how it is.
01:01:56You're fucking my wife.
01:01:58I'm not your wife.
01:02:05You know, I always thought you were just some boring prude,
01:02:08but it turns out you're a fucking slut, huh?
01:02:10Watch your damn mouth.
01:02:12She's fucking your friend just to get back at you.
01:02:15I'm not his friend.
01:02:17I'm not fucking him.
01:02:19You may feel like you just won the jackpot with this one,
01:02:20but let me tell you about him.
01:02:22He sleeps with his clients.
01:02:24I saw him texting one.
01:02:26So, I see you got your new target figured out,
01:02:29which makes sense that you sleep with somebody for money,
01:02:31because you were basically gonna do that with me.
01:02:33Hank, get him out of here. Let's go.
01:02:35Fuck off and what are you gonna do?
01:02:37Beat me up? I'll fucking...
01:02:39Who are you? Get your hands off of him!
01:02:41I'll fucking sue you!
01:02:43Oh, and Hank, do me a favor.
01:02:45Blacklist Mr. Price and his play thing from all of our properties.
01:02:48Restaurants and mall included.
01:02:51Are you okay?
01:02:55Layla, why are you so mad at me?
01:02:58I'm not.
01:03:00Yeah, why am I so mad?
01:03:02You know, I kind of put it all out there for you,
01:03:05and Eric knows how I feel and is probably gonna sue me,
01:03:08and you don't even have a thank you.
01:03:14Layla, really, I'm sorry.
01:03:16I'm sorry.
01:03:18Layla Reed.
01:03:21Are you jealous?
01:03:23No.
01:03:25No, I'm not jealous.
01:03:27Why would I be jealous?
01:03:29Why, are you fucking your clients?
01:03:32Why do you care?
01:03:35I don't.
01:03:37Well, I'll share if you will.
01:03:40Who's the guy that you keep bringing into my hotel at night?
01:03:43Okay, stalker.
01:03:44Okay, stalker.
01:03:48No, I'm not sleeping with my clients.
01:03:51I'm not sleeping with anyone, but...
01:03:54Anyone but...
01:04:00Anyone but...
01:04:03Never mind.
01:04:09For everything and all of...
01:04:13That and...
01:04:17That might be the kindest thing that you've ever said to me.
01:04:20Yeah, well, cherish it.
01:04:24What are you even doing here?
01:04:26Oh, Hank, I brought you soup for your hangover.
01:04:31How do you know I'm hungover?
01:04:33Well, when it's in, your acquaintance buys a whole bottle of Dom at the Callaway,
01:04:38but then proceeds to...
01:04:40Well, I tend to find out.
01:04:44You know what?
01:04:46I'd like to purchase these.
01:04:48I wouldn't want to forget the memory.
01:04:51Keep them.
01:04:56Keep the jacket.
01:04:58It matches your eyes.
01:05:02I can't.
01:05:06I'll take this. I got this for him for Christmas.
01:05:09Okay.
01:05:28Can we stop staying at the Callaway?
01:05:30I hate it there.
01:05:32But what about all the memories we made there?
01:05:35Did you just give me a sad face?
01:05:39No.
01:05:50Fine.
01:06:03All right, sir, where to?
01:06:06Back to the meeting or the Callaway Hotel?
01:06:09Uh...
01:06:12The costume shop.
01:06:15Bingo.
01:06:19Who do you want me to meet?
01:06:24Firefighter.
01:06:40Firefighter.
01:06:53Firefighter.
01:07:09Firefighter.
01:07:37Oh, there you are.
01:07:40Well, these investors flew all the way from Paris to...
01:07:42Good. I got it.
01:07:44You take the outfit, please.
01:07:45That's for you.
01:07:47Sir, did you even prep for this meeting?
01:07:49No, of course I did.
01:07:50You know, these investors flew all the way from Paris...
01:07:53Okay.
01:07:54So, please.
01:07:55To Parle Francais.
01:07:56There's one here.
01:07:57Yeah.
01:07:58Zoom with them.
01:08:00We zoomed with them the other day, remember?
01:08:01It was, um...
01:08:02Okay. Oh.
01:08:04It was last week.
01:08:05Yeah, you had that mocha latte and...
01:08:08Okay.
01:08:09So...
01:08:10French investors...
01:08:11Yes, we.
01:08:12And they're buying our...
01:08:14No, they want to rent.
01:08:16They want to rent.
01:08:17Okay.
01:08:18I know you can pull up your pants.
01:08:19I've been practicing my whole life.
01:08:20Yes, you have got this.
01:08:22And, uh...
01:08:23We have zoomed with them before, so you'll be familiar with their face.
01:08:25Sir, we are...
01:08:26Well, we're here.
01:08:28Oh, he's asleep.
01:08:32Sir?
01:08:33Stop!
01:08:57Thank you so much.
01:08:58Merci.
01:08:59Have a wonderful day.
01:09:15Home and Garden.
01:09:17Whose is this?
01:09:18Matthew.
01:09:20Kimberly.
01:09:21Here are the projections from the French investor.
01:09:23Oh, thank you so much, Kimberly.
01:09:25Yeah, you'll have a look?
01:09:26Absolutely.
01:09:27Okay, do that.
01:09:28You're doing a great job, Kim.
01:09:34Sir?
01:09:35Sir?
01:09:36Your, uh...
01:09:37Your side hustle?
01:09:38It has to stop.
01:09:40How?
01:09:43I mean, I signed a contract with Layla.
01:09:45Well, this whole thing with Miss Reed is...
01:09:48Let me say this.
01:09:49It is bonkers.
01:09:51I honestly don't know how she hasn't already found out.
01:09:54And now it's too late to tell her.
01:09:55I mean, you've seen how she holds grudges.
01:09:57Plus, she's going to think that I did the whole thing just to get her to sell me her bookstore or something.
01:10:02And you didn't?
01:10:03Hm?
01:10:04Sir?
01:10:05Sir, if you did not do this for business, then what was it for?
01:10:09Oh, sir?
01:10:12Hm?
01:10:13Are you in love?
01:10:14Okay, yes.
01:10:17I am. I am. I... I am.
01:10:20And I think I have been for a long time.
01:10:25What am I going to do, Hank?
01:10:27Alright, let's go! We're staring hard!
01:10:31All the champagne in there?
01:10:32Yes, sir.
01:10:33Yes, sir.
01:10:34Look at him.
01:10:35Bring all the champagne, guys.
01:10:43Welcome to Callaway.
01:10:46She's coming?
01:10:47Okay.
01:10:49Stand up, guys. Stand up.
01:10:52Miss Reed is here!
01:10:55Miss Reed is here.
01:10:56Hi.
01:10:57Hi.
01:10:58He did all of this just for a meeting with me?
01:11:02What is this?
01:11:04Well, I'm proposing a new business collaboration.
01:11:08But one that truly benefits us both.
01:11:11Hm. Benefits us both, meaning mostly you and a little bit for me?
01:11:16No.
01:11:18Layla, actually, all for you.
