Transcript
00:00:00Bella?
00:00:01Bella?
00:00:02Where did she go?
00:00:03The gardener says Miss Bella's not on the grounds.
00:00:06She's disappeared again.
00:00:07We'll tell the design team to go big or go home.
00:00:10We're not building some quaint bed and breakfast.
00:00:13This is a billion dollar Barlow resort on a private island off Dubai.
00:00:17We need to crush this.
00:00:19Crush!
00:00:20Crush!
00:00:21Crush!
00:00:22Crush!

00:00:27Crush!
00:00:28Crush!
00:00:29Crush!
00:00:30Steve, I have to call you back.
00:00:33How did you get in here, Bella?
00:00:36My little escape artist.
00:00:41What am I going to tell Mr. Barlow?
00:00:44Pulse alarm.
00:00:45She's here, everyone.
00:00:49Thank God.
00:00:51I only took my eyes off her for a second.
00:00:53She needs a leash.
00:00:55I'm not a dog.
00:00:56No, a dog behaves better.
00:00:59Daddy.
00:01:00Okay, everyone, let's get back to it.
00:01:02These decorations aren't going to put themselves up.
00:01:04Miss Delilah, I'm sorry.
00:01:06I will be hiring a new nanny soon.
00:01:08Well, how long do you think this is going to last?
00:01:10She's scared off three in a year.
00:01:13I don't want a nanny.
00:01:15I want a mommy.
00:01:21I'm not Everly.
00:01:28You see, it's a circus out there, like a literal freaking circus.
00:01:31Oh, my God, there's jugglers, there's clowns, there's even a man on stilts.
00:01:34Can you imagine having a birthday like this when you were just eight years old?
00:01:37Foster kid here.
00:01:38I used to blow out imaginary candles and dream of real cake.
00:01:45This is my favorite part.
00:01:49Somebody's a little too in touch with their inner child.
00:01:53When your mother proposed this blind date, I was a little hesitant.
00:01:57I just couldn't believe that any man can live up to the image that she painted.
00:02:02Yes, she's very good at talking me up.
00:02:05In your case, she really didn't do you justice.
00:02:09I'd love to slip away from the crowd and get to know you better.
00:02:13You're at my eight-year-old's birthday party.
00:02:15I wasn't interested before, but now I want you to leave.
00:02:23Wait for it.
00:02:27Why, hello, Mother.
00:02:28Julian, Bianca is hysterical and you have embarrassed me.
00:02:33Well, stop setting me up with random women.
00:02:35I'm not getting married again. Once was enough.
00:02:37Kendra and the race car driver have ended it.
00:02:40Right now, you have sole custody of Bella.
00:02:43Let the courts favor the mother, Julian.
00:02:45You and I both know Kendra could show up at any time
00:02:48and demand that Bella live with her just to spite you.
00:02:52I'm not letting that witch anywhere near my daughter.
00:02:55Find yourself a wife and show the world a stable family.
00:02:59Not for your own happiness, but for your child's.
00:03:07Mother might be dramatic, but she's right about Bella needing a mom.
00:03:11Perhaps a fake wife would do.
00:03:15Got vanilla for you.
00:03:18What's your favorite flavor?
00:03:20Ah, chocolate!
00:03:22So, do you want to know what makes everything taste so good?
00:03:26The secret ingredient is...
00:03:31love.
00:03:42Well, I'm so exhausted. I'm heading home. You coming?
00:03:45Let's stay and finish the engagement cake for tomorrow.
00:03:47Okay.
00:03:49Hey, Bernie!
00:03:51Let me grab you the day oats.
00:03:59Tell Rose and Pete I included the pecan cinnamon rolls just for them.
00:04:12Oh, my gosh!
00:04:14You scared me!
00:04:16Where did you come from, sweetheart?
00:04:18Where are your parents?
00:04:20Are you lost?
00:04:22What's your name?
00:04:24I'm Everly.
00:04:26You don't want to tell me, huh?
00:04:29Guess I'll just have to guess.
00:04:32Your name is Olga.
00:04:36Gertrude.
00:04:38Prudence.
00:04:40Hazel.
00:04:41Constance.
00:04:42Phyllis.
00:04:43Henrietta?
00:04:45Bertha.
00:04:47It's Bella!
00:04:49The birthday girl.
00:04:51She must have stowed away in the truck.
00:04:53Bella!
00:04:59You scared me, Bella Barlow.
00:05:02Sorry, Daddy.
00:05:04What were you thinking?
00:05:05I found my mommy!
00:05:11I'm so sorry.
00:05:12She's never done anything like this.
00:05:14I want Everly to be my mommy.
00:05:16Bella, munchkin.
00:05:18Please.
00:05:19You know, my daddy has lots of money.
00:05:22All you have to do is marry him and be my mommy.
00:05:25Bella, you don't marry someone for money.
00:05:28You do it because you love them so much.
00:05:31And it feels like they're a part of you.
00:05:34Like you can't picture your life without them in it.
00:05:39I know you're supposed to be my mommy.
00:05:43I'm engaged to someone else.
00:05:46Come on, Bella.
00:05:48We've taken up enough of Miss Harper's time.
00:05:59So a hot guy and a cute little girl were like,
00:06:01come be my insta-family?
00:06:02The little girl was.
00:06:03The dad was kind of mortified.
00:06:05Bella reminds me of what I was like after the car accident.
00:06:08Kept going up to perfect strangers,
00:06:10looking for my parents.
00:06:12Just couldn't accept that they were gone.
00:06:18Hey, beautiful. I miss you already.
00:06:20When are you back from your business trip?
00:06:22I'm back Monday.
00:06:24We'll see each other then.
00:06:26Are you calling me from the bathroom?
00:06:28No, the guests next door are just really loud.
00:06:32I gotta go. I love you.
00:06:36Hello? Earth to Everly?
00:06:39What?
00:06:40I was just thinking about what I told the little girl.
00:06:42All the reasons you marry someone,
00:06:44but I've never actually felt any of those things.
00:06:47Well, you better decide sooner rather than later.
00:06:49Well, Nolan and I have been together since high school.
00:06:51Loyalty counts for something.
00:06:54At least what we have is real.
00:06:57Okay, this hotel is huge.
00:06:59Where is the engagement party being held?
00:07:01Uh, restaurant.
00:07:03Okay, yes.
00:07:09I'm bored.
00:07:10I'm sorry, Munchkin, but after yesterday,
00:07:12I'm not letting you out of my sight.
00:07:14Bella was bad.
00:07:15Bella was very bad.
00:07:17But I'll take you to get ice cream if you're very bad.
00:07:20No, I'm good.
00:07:22I'm good.
00:07:24I'll take you to get ice cream if you're very good.
00:07:28I want cupcake.
00:07:30Nice try, kiddo.
00:07:32Okay.
00:07:52That must be the bride-to-be.
00:07:54Hey, delivery for the lovely bride.
00:07:56Can I just get your signature on this really quick?
00:08:02Oh, my gosh.
00:08:04Everly.
00:08:06Well, you haven't changed a bit since high school, huh?
00:08:10Still a pathetic orphan with no money?
00:08:13Or taste.
00:08:15Olivia, this is your engagement party.
00:08:19Who would marry a raging bully like you?
00:08:21Everly, what are you doing here?
00:08:28Nolan, I...
00:08:30I don't understand.
00:08:31Isn't it obvious, you ignorant nobody?
00:08:35Nolan's been cheating on you.
00:08:38With me.
00:08:46Is it true, Nolan?
00:08:48Yeah, I can explain.
00:08:49No, is it true?
00:08:51You've been sleeping with Olivia?
00:08:54You saw how she treated me.
00:08:56She made my high school life a living hell.
00:08:58A living hell.
00:08:59You hate her just as much as I do.
00:09:01Well, if that's hate sex,
00:09:04then sign me up for a lifetime of it.
00:09:08Nolan's a sexy beast, aren't you, darling?
00:09:11Oh, but you wouldn't know about that, Everly.
00:09:14Being the pity fuck that you are.
00:09:17You set this whole thing up, didn't you, Olivia?
00:09:20Did you think you could date both of us?
00:09:22Marry both of us?
00:09:24No.
00:09:26Nolan, you have to choose.
00:09:29You can be with me and live the good life,
00:09:31or you can be with this dirty orphan
00:09:36who will always be poor, pathetic white trash
00:09:40her entire life,
00:09:42and who will drag you down with her.
00:09:48I'm sorry.
00:09:50I'm sorry, Everly.
00:09:51I just, I can't be poor.
00:09:53I can't.
00:09:55I'm so sorry.
00:10:05This isn't happening.
00:10:07I'm in some kind of post-high school nightmare
00:10:09where the mean girl still wins.
00:10:15I don't like her.
00:10:16She's mean.
00:10:17Hello, where did you come from?
00:10:20Is she an evil witch?
00:10:22You little shit.
00:10:23Who the hell let this wretched brat in here?
00:10:25Hey, watch your mouth, Olivia.
00:10:27You can't talk to her like that.
00:10:30I can say whatever the hell I want.
00:10:34And both of you, get out.
00:10:36And take this disgusting cake with you.
00:10:38It's garbage, just like you.
00:10:44What are you, crazy?
00:10:45You could have hurt her.
00:10:46Too bad I missed.
00:10:50Oh my goodness.
00:10:52Get off me.
00:10:56Choke on it, bitch.
00:11:02I'm gonna destroy you.
00:11:04Good luck with that.
00:11:06You already tried in high school,
00:11:07but I'm stronger now.
00:11:09Keep rolling with my blessing.
00:11:11Nolan, do something.
00:11:15Everly?
00:11:16Take it off her.
00:11:23Touch my kid and you're dead.
00:11:24Who the hell are you?
00:11:26I'm with her.
00:11:27Since when?
00:11:28That's none of your business.
00:11:32Ooh, hold still.
00:11:34You have some frost in there.
00:11:38Stop, don't.
00:11:40It's Julian Barlow,
00:11:42heir of Barlow Hotels and Resorts.
00:11:44He owns this very hotel.
00:11:46You're lucky I don't sue you both
00:11:48for attempting to assault a minor.
00:11:50I didn't know it was your kid.
00:11:51So she's a poor girl?
00:11:52Hurting her is okay?
00:11:53This party's over.
00:11:54You two are banned for life
00:11:55from every Barlow property in the world.
00:12:00So this is what having someone
00:12:01stand up for you feels like.
00:12:07They were bad, Daddy.
00:12:09There's a lot of bad people out there.
00:12:11That's why you can't run off the way you did.
00:12:13But I thought I really wanted to be with her.
00:12:17You need some rest.
00:12:19Go to the car.
00:12:21I love you, Edwin.
00:12:28Thank you for protecting my daughter.
00:12:30Thank you for saving me
00:12:31from my cheating ex-fiancé.
00:12:38That sounds like a desperate man
00:12:40trying to win you back.
00:12:41Yeah.
00:12:43Not happening.
00:12:50Seems we have a problem, Miss Harper.
00:12:53My daughter's heart is set on you being her mother.
00:12:59You also have a problem with your ex
00:13:01not getting the message.
00:13:03I propose a pretend relationship.
00:13:06Like a fake marriage?
00:13:07Exactly.
00:13:08I can protect you from your ex-fiancé,
00:13:10and you can help me protect Bella
00:13:12from herself and my ex,
00:13:14if she comes back into town.
00:13:16Is your ex really that bad?
00:13:18Ginger makes your high school nemesis
00:13:20look like a teddy bear.
00:13:22Do we have a deal?
00:13:23What if you want to be with someone for real?
00:13:26I won't.
00:13:28I've sworn I'm not going to get married again.
00:13:38Yes, Mr. Barlow.
00:13:40You have a deal.
00:13:49Tomorrow night is the annual charity gala.
00:13:52Black Tie.
00:13:53There we'll introduce you to society.
00:13:56Why don't we start out slow?
00:13:59My mother will know if we don't show up as newlyweds.
00:14:02Didn't you say she lives in Paris?
00:14:04She has spies everywhere.
00:14:07Did you go to the gala with me?
00:14:10I don't, Julian.
00:14:12I'm more flower than flair.
00:14:15We have a boutique at the hotel.
00:14:18I think the right dress will ease some of your stress.
00:14:22I'm still super uncomfortable with all this.
00:14:26I don't want to embarrass you at the gala.
00:14:29Are you always going to be this touchy about 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.
00:14:41Maybe I have.
00:14:44Do you mind?
00:14:45My mother will want a picture of the newlyweds.
00:14:57One other thing.
00:15:00Don't fall for me.
00:15:03Same goes for you.
00:15:11Boop.
00:15:14Boop.
00:15:17Boop.
00:15:20Boop.
00:15:22Well, hello, Mother.
00:15:24You're married?
00:15:25Who is this girl?
00:15:27Her name is Everly Harper.
00:15:29She's a sous chef.
00:15:31Cordon bleu trained, but she calls herself a baker.
00:15:34Ridiculous.
00:15:37Well, her parents died when she was six.
00:15:40Since then, she's had no relatives.
00:15:42She became a ward of the state and bounced around foster care,
00:15:47never really having a permanent home.
00:15:49So she's an orphan without social connections.
00:15:52What are her financials?
00:15:54Well, she has some student loan debt and her business is barely making it.
00:15:59Despite that, she's won numerous awards and competitions for her.
00:16:03Oh, my God, she's dirt poor.
00:16:07You've married a gold digger, Julian.
00:16:09Well, to be honest, my wealth is probably a bad thing in this case.
00:16:13She'd rather me be middle class.
00:16:15Well, then she's a fool.
00:16:17Who wouldn't want a billionaire husband?
00:16:19Well, Bella chose her to be her mother.
00:16:25Well, I'm just upset that my only son didn't inform me he was married.
00:16:28We'll be in touch.
00:16:35That went exactly as expected.
00:16:37Yay! I'm really going to be my new mommy!
00:16:41I should start calling you my little spy.
00:16:43When does she move in?
00:16:45Um, I'm not sure. We haven't had that discussion.
00:16:49And she's going to bake me more magical cookies filled with love.
00:16:53Has she done that before?
00:16:56Well, yes. Soon she'll be here and she'll bake you many things full of love.
00:17:00Yay! Yay!
00:17:08Wait, you fake Mary and Julie and Barlow?
00:17:11I know, it's insane.
00:17:13Oh, my God, you do know that your hubby is worth like $100 billion, right?
00:17:17Very funny.
00:17:19You do?
00:17:21I'm not joking.
00:17:23Whoa, I've never seen that many zeros in one spot.
00:17:26Oh, my God, bestie!
00:17:28You're literally married to one of the richest dudes on the planet.
00:17:31Olivia and her totes are totally going to flip out.
00:17:33We have to go to the high school reunion next weekend.
00:17:35I thought you said we were skipping that.
00:17:36Uh-uh, uh-uh, not anymore.
00:17:38We are going.
00:17:40Oh, come on. Please, please, please.
00:17:43Think about it.
00:17:45Yay!
00:17:47Why would someone like him even want a pretend marriage?
00:17:49I mean, he's charming, handsome, brilliant, and a good dad.
00:17:55Like, he could easily find a real wife.
00:17:57Maybe he's just avoiding commitment.
00:17:59You know, classic playboy move.
00:18:01He doesn't strike me as that type.
00:18:03Look at you, playing the little protective wife already.
00:18:06Shut up.
00:18:08So, when does Miss Barlow make her big debut?
00:18:11Tonight, actually.
00:18:14Care to help me find a dress for some exclusive gala?
00:18:17Oh, my God, oh, my God, oh, my God.
00:18:19This is the most exclusive credit card of all credit cards.
00:18:22You could buy an island with this thing.
00:18:24I'm going to be sick.
00:18:26I have to find a way to give it back to him.
00:18:28Everly Harper, you will do no such thing.
00:18:31Can you please just be a little selfish for the both of us and live a little?
00:18:36You're right.
00:18:38Let's do this.
00:18:40Yay!
00:18:52Okay, I can't do this.
00:18:53$40,000 for a dress is insane.
00:18:55We could rent an entire village for that price.
00:18:57Yeah, crazy world we live in.
00:18:59Hello, ladies.
00:19:00My name is Pilar.
00:19:02Should we try something on?
00:19:04It appears to be your size, but I do have a seamstress on standby.
00:19:07Can I maybe rent it instead?
00:19:09Rent?
00:19:12That'll be $1,000 a day, plus a $4,000 security deposit.
00:19:17Can you afford that?
00:19:20Oh, my goodness, what manual labor job do you do?
00:19:23I'm a baker.
00:19:26Absolutely no rental for you.
00:19:28Those rough worker hands will snag the delicate fabric.
00:19:31There's a thrift store down the way that might be more at your speed.
00:19:36You don't understand.
00:19:37I'm attending the annual Celestial Charity Gala tonight.
00:19:39It's strictly black tie.
00:19:40Then what are you doing at Celestial, the most exclusive event in town?
00:19:44I know.
00:19:46You must be a waitress handing out caravans.
00:19:48Just buy it, then.
00:19:53This is a black card.
00:19:55Obviously.
00:19:58Held up at boutique, not going too well.
00:20:03Well, well, well.
00:20:06This card belongs to Mr. Barlow.
00:20:08How did it end up in your hands?
00:20:10Mr. Barlow happens to be my best friend's husband.
00:20:14As if.
00:20:16You must have stolen it.
00:20:18Security, arrest these scammers for identity theft and fraud.
00:20:22Get your hands off of her, you animal.
00:20:27Let us.
00:20:30We're not thieves.
00:20:32You're making a mistake.
00:20:33The card was given to me.
00:20:34We're innocent.
00:20:40Get this trash out of my face.
00:20:44Let them go.
00:20:52Mr. Barlow, you're right on time.
00:20:54Okay, I just caught these scammers trying to charge $5,000 to your card.
00:20:58$5,000?
00:20:59When have you ever sold a dress under 30 grand?
00:21:01That was me.
00:21:03Just trying to rent it and said no dress is worth that much.
00:21:06Are you kidding me?
00:21:07Don't fall for this innocent act.
00:21:09She's a clever scammer.
00:21:11Did you see anything you liked?
00:21:13This one.
00:21:14But we were told to shop at the thrift shop.
00:21:17I'm Samantha, by the way.
00:21:18I've heard so much about you.
00:21:20Nice to meet you, Samantha.
00:21:22My wife was looking to outfit herself for tonight's gala entirely through your boutique.
00:21:28Unfortunately, you cut up our card.
00:21:33So she really is your wife?
00:21:39At Barlow, we believe in treating everyone with respect and dignity.
00:21:44Isn't your lease up in 30 days?
00:21:47Mr. Barlow, I am so, so sorry.
00:21:49Okay, Mrs. Barlow, please.
00:21:50Here.
00:21:51Take the dress.
00:21:52It's on the house.
00:21:53It's not necessary.
00:21:54Just bill my account.
00:21:58And Barlow won't renew your lease.
00:22:00Not here.
00:22:01Not anywhere.
00:22:03You're done, Velar.
00:22:05I'll make sure you never work in retail again.
00:22:13I realize right now this is the first time I'm seeing the real Evelyn.
00:22:34You've been hiding in plain sight.
00:22:36You're right.
00:22:37Look over here.
00:22:38Surplus loan for the night?
00:22:39What's her name, man?
00:22:42I got you.
00:22:43What's her name?
00:22:56I feel like I don't fit in here.
00:22:58You don't fit in, Evelyn.
00:23:00You stand out.
00:23:02Don't be so obvious, Everly.
00:23:03You can't let yourself fall for him.
00:23:05It's true.
00:23:06Everyone here is rich.
00:23:07But they're all human.
00:23:09With flaws and all.
00:23:12That's Chase and Daisy Harrington.
00:23:14They're in bank.
00:23:15I don't think you mean they work at the Teller window.
00:23:18Chase can often be found at the dog track.
00:23:20And Daisy's a lush.
00:23:22She's probably spiked her wine with vodka already.
00:23:24Julian, that's awful.
00:23:26And that's Lily Blake Dubois.
00:23:29And her second husband.
00:23:30He's 25 years her junior.
00:23:32Men date women who are younger than them all the time.
00:23:35She was the PTA president.
00:23:36And he was in ninth grade.
00:23:38With her son.
00:23:39When they met.
00:23:40When they started their affair.
00:23:41Oh my god.
00:23:42Okay, stop.
00:23:43I get it.
00:23:44I am no longer intimidated by anyone in here.
00:23:47Mission accomplished.
00:23:49Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:23:54Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:23:58I'm too old for surprises, mother.
00:24:00You flew from Paris for nothing.
00:24:02Nothing?
00:24:04You're making a fool of yourself with this gold digger.
00:24:07Miss Barlow, let's get two things straight.
00:24:10One, my name is Everly Harper.
00:24:13And two, I am not a gold digger.
00:24:16I've earned my keep since I was six years old.
00:24:18And I started my business from scratch.
00:24:20I don't need your money.
00:24:22But I would like your respect.
00:24:24So, I won't let anyone talk down to me.
00:24:27Even if you are Julian's mother.
00:24:29Impudent girl.
00:24:30Meddling mother.
00:24:34Aren't you going to say anything?
00:24:36Meddling mother?
00:24:38I couldn't have put it better myself.
00:24:42I don't know what you did to trick my son into marriage.
00:24:45But I have my eye on you, Everly Harper.
00:24:48One false move, and you are through.
00:24:51Alright, that's enough.
00:24:53Enjoy your evening alone, mother.
00:24:57Everly, I want to apologize.
00:25:00My mother was out of line.
00:25:02She didn't expect it either.
00:25:04She's so determined, she won't back down.
00:25:07We need to make sure she doesn't start digging into the details of our marriage.
00:25:11So, what's our next steps?
00:25:14I want you to move in with me.
00:25:17I want you to move in with me.
00:25:20I want you to move in with me.
00:25:23I want you to move in with me.
00:25:26It was going to happen sooner or later.
00:25:29Mother just expedited it.
00:25:31That goes to the kitchen.
00:25:35Living room.
00:25:36Living room.
00:25:37It's just all moving a little too fast.
00:25:39I mean, one minute Julian's asking me to move in with him,
00:25:42and the next, movers are packing my stuff.
00:25:44But you gotta love a man that takes action, you know?
00:25:46You are oddly chipper about all this.
00:25:48I mean, here I was feeling bad about leaving you to find a new roommate.
00:25:51I don't know, I think I'm going to try living alone for a while.
00:25:54How can you afford that?
00:25:55The new landlord lowered everyone's rent.
00:25:57Since when?
00:25:58Since you became his fake bride.
00:26:01He knew that you feel bad for me,
00:26:03and so he bought the entire apartment complex and lowered everyone's rent.
00:26:07That's...
00:26:09That's...
00:26:10romantic.
00:26:12Everly, billionaires don't think like normal people, sweetie.
00:26:15This is your life now.
00:26:16You need to get used to it, okay?
00:26:19Are we going to have gazpacho for dinner?
00:26:21If it pleases Miss Bella to have gazpacho.
00:26:24Hello!
00:26:26Okay, what can I get you today?
00:26:29You're welcome.
00:26:38Shouldn't take me longer than two days to inspect the site in Indonesia.
00:26:41Are you sure you can watch Bella?
00:26:43I haven't hired a nanny yet.
00:26:45Don't worry about us.
00:26:46You focus on work.
00:26:47Bella and I will be just fine.
00:26:49I'll take you to the bakery with me.
00:26:50You should have a blast.
00:26:52Here'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,
00:27:03doctor's number.
00:27:04I'm impressed.
00:27:05I wouldn't have thought a CEO like you would be this hands-on with this kid.
00:27:08Well, you thought wrong.
00:27:10I'm not a doctor.
00:27:11I'm a lawyer.
00:27:12I wouldn't have thought a CEO like you would be this hands-on with this kid.
00:27:15Well, you thought wrong.
00:27:16Bella means the world to me.
00:27:29Daddy, why are you staring at Emily like that?
00:27:33You like her.
00:27:35Sorry, she doesn't know what she's talking about.
00:27:37Well, sometimes kids have a way of knowing the truth.
00:27:40You also have a way of being annoying.
00:27:42Well, anyways, me and Bun Bun wanted to play airplane.
00:27:46All right, Munchkin, you have one minute.
00:27:49Yippee!
00:27:51Ready?
00:27:52Yeah!
00:27:58So this is what a happy family looks like.
00:28:00Looks so nice.
00:28:02I wonder if we could be a real family someday.
00:28:04Just the three of us.
00:28:10Okay, Chef, what's on the menu today?
00:28:13Chocolate cupcakes and chocolate donuts and chocolate cake.
00:28:19Oh, and chocolate chip cookies.
00:28:21I'm sensing a chocolate theme.
00:28:23Okay, it's time to get to work, Chef.
00:28:25Whoopee, Chef!
00:28:31Ta-da!
00:28:32What do you think, Chef?
00:28:37I can taste the love.
00:28:38What?
00:28:39The magic ingredient.
00:28:41I can taste it.
00:28:42That's good.
00:28:46Evelyn?
00:28:47Hmm?
00:28:48Do you like my dad?
00:28:50Of course I like him.
00:28:52He's a great guy and a good dad.
00:28:54So you could become my mommy for real?
00:28:57Bella, I don't know what the future holds,
00:29:01but I know you have a very special place in my heart, okay?
00:29:05Okay.
00:29:10Whoa, that was fast.
00:29:13Okay, time for a rest.
00:29:18Daddy!
00:29:27Oh, my God, I'm falling for him.
00:29:32Daddy!
00:29:34Did you miss me, Munchkin?
00:29:36So much, but Everly's the best.
00:29:38I got to be a chef.
00:29:40And we had a movie marathon.
00:29:42And I got to sleep in sheep tents in the living room.
00:29:45And we ate in the kitchen with Mrs. Delaney,
00:29:48who was all frowny, but then she was all smiley.
00:29:51I like the kitchen better than the dining room.
00:29:53Can we eat there from now on?
00:29:55I see you've made some changes.
00:29:57Very minor ones.
00:29:59Oops, did I say something bad?
00:30:01No, Munchkin, Daddy's just learning his little set in his ways.
00:30:04You can do everything, Dad, but you're a bad cook.
00:30:07Everly's way better at girl stuff.
00:30:09You're like the prince, and Everly's the princess,
00:30:11and we can all live happily ever after.
00:30:14With Bun Bun, of course.
00:30:20Kids and their fairy tales.
00:30:22She'll understand that we can't be more than a pretend couple when she's older.
00:30:26Of course. She's still too little.
00:30:29We can't be more than a pretend couple.
00:30:31Right, it felt so real.
00:30:34I let myself forget it was a fake marriage.
00:30:36It can never be anything more.
00:30:46My God, you have to go.
00:30:48Come on, Olivia and Nolan are going to gossip about us if you do not show your face tomorrow.
00:30:52They're going to do that regardless.
00:30:54I'm sorry, Sammy, I thought about it, and I don't want to go to our high school reunion.
00:30:57Okay, hear me out. Just picture this.
00:30:59You walk in with your new, hot, billionaire husband.
00:31:02It's the perfect revenge for the mean girls that used to call us poor losers.
00:31:05No, I would never use Julian in that way.
00:31:07Well, if the thing is, I already told them that you would be there with them.
00:31:12Okay, don't get upset. Don't get upset.
00:31:14It's just that Olivia posted that we were lying skinks,
00:31:16and then it kind of just blew up from there, and then all of a sudden...
00:31:18Samantha, you make everything ten times worse.
00:31:20Don't worry, I'll go with you.
00:31:22I can't let my wife be humiliated.
00:31:24I came by to take you to dinner as a thank you for helping me with Bella.
00:31:29Did he really mean that? His wife?
00:31:32You should take the day off tomorrow and go pamper yourself.
00:31:35I'll make the arrangements with the hotel spa.
00:31:37On one condition. Can you make the reservation for two?
00:31:42I can do that.
00:31:50I want to get my nails done, too.
00:31:52What color do you want to get, Bella?
00:31:54The exact same as you. I also want to get some for Bun Bun.
00:31:57He looks sly with those.
00:31:59You're so adorable.
00:32:01How could any mother abandon you?
00:32:04I wish you were really mine.
00:32:11Oh, my.
00:32:12Mr. Barlow said that you might need some help getting into it.
00:32:17I can't wear that, Miss Delaney.
00:32:19It's too beautiful and definitely way too expensive.
00:32:22Nonsense, dear.
00:32:24Mr. Barlow said to tell you you're the only one that can do it justice.
00:32:29Now, let's see it on you.
00:32:38I want to thank you for the dress.
00:32:40I'll find a way to pay you back.
00:32:42Seeing you in it is payment enough.
00:32:44You are dropped dead gorgeous, Everly.
00:32:48It's not me. It's the dress.
00:32:50Why do you do that?
00:32:52Why do you downplay your beauty?
00:32:54I don't like to draw attention to myself.
00:32:56You shouldn't have to dim your light to make others feel good about themselves.
00:33:12Mr. Barlow, sir, there is a visitor here demanding to speak with you.
00:33:17I'm not expecting anyone.
00:33:19It's your ex-wife.
00:33:22It's your ex-wife.
00:33:30I put Miss Rossy in the guest room.
00:33:32Where's Bella?
00:33:33She's with Miss Delaney in the playroom.
00:33:35Good. We need to keep Bella away from Kendra.
00:33:39I have to deal with her. I'll join you at the reunion when I'm done.
00:33:42I can just not go.
00:33:43No, you can't go.
00:33:44You can't go.
00:33:45You can't go.
00:33:46You can't go.
00:33:47You can't go.
00:33:48You can't go.
00:33:49You can't go.
00:33:50You can't just not go.
00:33:51No, Kendra is not going to disrupt our plans.
00:33:53My driver will take you there. I promise.
00:33:59It's been so long, Julian.
00:34:01Not long enough. What do you want?
00:34:03I want my daughter.
00:34:05I want Bella.
00:34:14I heard Everly is coming to the reunion.
00:34:17I thought that she would never show her face here ever again.
00:34:21Everly? The foster kid weirdo?
00:34:24Yeah, well, she destroyed my engagement party, so I'm going to destroy her tonight.
00:34:28Didn't Samantha say she's married to Julian Barlow?
00:34:31What if he's going to come with her?
00:34:33He might fuck her, but a Barlow is not going to marry trash like her.
00:34:48She should be mine.
00:34:58Eyes on me, Nolan.
00:35:00They really did recreate senior prom.
00:35:02Yep, all the ways, the tacky decorations, and the cheesy DJ.
00:35:06Last time I was here, I was with Nolan.
00:35:08My foster mom at the time helped make my dress, and it looked it.
00:35:12We didn't even get our first dance before Olivia told everyone about it.
00:35:15We didn't even get our first dance before Olivia told everyone I had an STD.
00:35:19That's right, and then Nolan couldn't take it and he bailed.
00:35:22We should have known then that he was a dick.
00:35:24Yeah, I forgave him.
00:35:25No one could stand up for Olivia, myself included at that time.
00:35:29Let's play this bitch.
00:35:31I mean the dance, of course.
00:35:33That dress looks like it cost a fortune.
00:35:37What do you think, Olivia? You're a fashion expert.
00:35:41It can't be the Nightingale of Hanoi.
00:35:44That dress is worth millions.
00:35:46It's just a cheap knockoff.
00:35:48Come on, girls.
00:35:50Let's give Everly a high school reunion she'll never forget.
00:35:54Let's give Everly a high school reunion she'll never forget.
00:35:59Hey, where's your husband?
00:36:02Julian's on his way.
00:36:03Shut up, loser. No one's talking to you.
00:36:05Bitch.
00:36:06Give it up, Everly.
00:36:07We all know he got bored and dumped you.
00:36:10It's like, okay.
00:36:13Did you just fucking shrug at me?
00:36:17Apparently you've forgotten your place.
00:36:19Must be that dress giving you attitude, but it's a cheap knockoff just like you.
00:36:24I don't think it's a knockoff.
00:36:26It's a gift from my husband.
00:36:28Give it up, bitch.
00:36:30We all know you're lying, your husband, your dress.
00:36:34I call bullshit.
00:36:36Grow up, Olivia.
00:36:37You're too old to still be a mean girl.
00:36:49Hey, no, no, no.
00:36:50Let go of me, Nolan.
00:36:51Get your hands off of her.
00:36:53Just because you're fucking a Barlow doesn't make you royalty.
00:36:57Take that fake dress off.
00:36:59Or I'll take it off for you.
00:37:01What makes you think it's fake?
00:37:03You clueless bitch.
00:37:06I'm a fashion influencer.
00:37:08With 1.8 million followers,
00:37:11you expect me to believe that white trash like you
00:37:15are wearing the Nightingale of Hanoi gown
00:37:18valued at 10 million dollars.
00:37:22That's why Julian grinned when I said I'd pay him back for the dress.
00:37:26Take it off.
00:37:32Hey, no.
00:37:33Get off of her.
00:37:36Oh, my God.
00:37:37No.
00:37:38Let me go.
00:37:39No.
00:37:41No.
00:37:42No.
00:37:43Avery.
00:37:44No.
00:37:47Stop.
00:37:48Get away from my wife.
00:37:54Get away from my wife.
00:38:06I'm sorry I'm late.
00:38:08The dress is ruined.
00:38:10Please tell me it wasn't worth millions of dollars.
00:38:13I can't tell you that.
00:38:16Apologize to my wife, now.
00:38:18We were just joking.
00:38:19You know, fooling around.
00:38:21My wife was on the ground, soaking wet.
00:38:24Dressed torn.
00:38:25What you did was battery and harassment.
00:38:27My lawyer's not gonna think that's funny.
00:38:29I sure as hell don't.
00:38:30Lawyers?
00:38:32Who the hell are you?
00:38:34That's Julian Barlow.
00:38:35He's one of the richest men in the world.
00:38:37Do you know how much this dress is worth?
00:38:40Every bead is a genuine, flawless diamond.
00:38:43Miss St. James, you just ruined a ten million dollar gown.
00:38:46Oh, shit.
00:38:49No.
00:38:50No.
00:38:51No.
00:38:52No.
00:38:53That can't be.
00:38:54You better start liquidating all your assets, including your parents' house.
00:38:56Because the insurance company is coming for your ass.
00:38:58Then the police.
00:39:01Good luck finding a job in fashion after ruining one of the most famous dresses in the world.
00:39:07That's all your endorsements leaving you.
00:39:11That's all your endorsements leaving you.
00:39:13You did this.
00:39:15You set me up.
00:39:16You did it to yourself.
00:39:18Nolan, do something.
00:39:20I left the woman I love because you said we'd be rich and now you have nothing.
00:39:25You piece of shit.
00:39:27Nope.
00:39:31Don't do this.
00:39:33Please don't do this.
00:39:34I'm not the one you need to beg for forgiveness.
00:39:42I'm sorry, Everly.
00:39:45I never should have tormented you all of those years.
00:39:49You didn't deserve it.
00:39:50Then why did you do it?
00:39:53Why me?
00:39:56Why me?
00:39:57Because even with your shitty clothes, your terrible hair, you were still beautiful.
00:40:04Everyone could see it.
00:40:06I would kill to look like you and you treated it like it was nothing.
00:40:10So you hated me because I was pretty and didn't shove it in people's faces?
00:40:15That is so messed up.
00:40:18Well, I was right to hate you.
00:40:21Look at you.
00:40:22You bagged a billionaire without even trying.
00:40:25Everly is beautiful inside and out.
00:40:28That's what draws people to her.
00:40:30You're done here.
00:40:31I'm not going to push any criminal charges, but the insurance company will be reaching out.
00:40:35You're on the hook for that dress.
00:40:38Oh my god, I never thought that I'd see this in a lifetime.
00:40:41Please pinch me and tell me that I'm not dreaming.
00:40:43If you are, so am I.
00:40:45You want to get out of here?
00:40:47Yes, please.
00:40:55Bitches.
00:40:56Who knew that high school reunions would be this fun?
00:41:04Thank you for what you did.
00:41:07Never has anyone come to my rescue before.
00:41:09I enjoy doing it.
00:41:11You matter to me, Everly.
00:41:15Me and Belen.
00:41:17Hey.
00:41:18What's up?
00:41:19What's up?
00:41:20What's up?
00:41:21What's up?
00:41:22Me and Belen.
00:41:24Hey.
00:41:25Yeah, cool.
00:41:26I understand.
00:41:28Thank you again.
00:41:29Have a good night, Julian.
00:41:30Everly, wait.
00:41:32That came out wrong.
00:41:34What I meant was...
00:41:36I have feelings for you.
00:41:39But I don't want to lead you on.
00:41:41Kendra's betrayal of our marriage, it broke something inside of me.
00:41:44And I don't think I can commit to another woman.
00:41:50I just want to be with you.
00:41:52I'm not asking for anything else.
00:41:54You're so amazing, Julian.
00:41:56And I like everything about you.
00:41:58You just...
00:42:18Tara, is that you?
00:42:19I heard a noise.
00:42:23Yes, Mr. Gibson.
00:42:25You can go to bed.
00:42:26Yes, sir. Good night, sir.
00:42:28Ma'am.
00:42:29Fuck, that was embarrassing.
00:42:31I haven't got caught like that since I was a little school boy.
00:42:34Do you think he saw us?
00:42:35He probably did, but he's not going to say anything.
00:42:39I want nothing more than to take you upstairs right now.
00:42:43Me too.
00:42:44You're so honest, Everly.
00:42:46It's one of the many things I admire about you.
00:42:48And although it's going to kill me...
00:42:52I want you to go to bed.
00:42:54You're too noble.
00:42:57No one's ever said that to me before.
00:43:01Good night, sweetheart.
00:43:05Now go, before I change my mind.
00:43:11Did that just happen?
00:43:13Am I actually dating Julian Barlow?
00:43:22This is nice.
00:43:24Just holding your hand.
00:43:27What are we going to tell Bella?
00:43:29I don't want to get her hopes up.
00:43:30But we are dating now.
00:43:32Change of steps.
00:43:34We have to put her first.
00:43:36Have you always thought of others at the expense of yourself?
00:43:39That's why I was bullied so much growing up.
00:43:42And why people take advantage of me.
00:43:44Don't say that.
00:43:45You're the best person I know, Everly.
00:43:47And now you have me.
00:43:49And I promise I won't let anyone hurt you anymore.
00:44:00So you think you can replace me with this whore, Julian?
00:44:03Let's see how that works out when I get through with the both of you.
00:44:11So, this is your latest sludge.
00:44:14Kendra, are you following me?
00:44:16I'm Bella's mother.
00:44:17I need to know what her father is doing.
00:44:19And who is doing?
00:44:21So you suck the help now from Liam?
00:44:23Who I'm with is none of your business.
00:44:25You gave that right up three years ago
00:44:27when you cheated on me with my best friend.
00:44:29Then you abandoned your daughter and went to Europe
00:44:31with some tennis pro at a club.
00:44:33That was ages ago.
00:44:35I've changed now.
00:44:37I'm ready to be a wife and mother.
00:44:39And you can't let this homewrecker
00:44:41get in the way of what we can have.
00:44:43Everly is my wife now.
00:44:45And stay away from Bella.
00:44:46You don't have visitation rights.
00:44:50Oh, we'll see about that.
00:44:52I'm Bella's birth mother.
00:44:54That's never going to change.
00:44:56I can't lose my daughter, Everly.
00:44:58You won't. We'll fight it together.
00:45:10Hello, sir.
00:45:12What can I get for you today?
00:45:14I need to ask a favor of you.
00:45:16Sorry.
00:45:18No freebies for men with mean ex-wives?
00:45:20No ex-wife.
00:45:22Just one wife right in front of me.
00:45:26I'm still working.
00:45:28I'll have to kick you out
00:45:30if you're not a paying customer.
00:45:32Then I'll pay now.
00:45:38I guess just bought the entire store.
00:45:40I need help
00:45:42for my favorite cake baker.
00:45:44Bella's elementary school is hosting a bake sale
00:45:46and every family brings a homemade dessert
00:45:48and they all compete for first place.
00:45:52Would you want to go with us?
00:45:56You want me to be a part of your family?
00:45:58Part of your neighbors?
00:46:00Of course.
00:46:08No, you have to stir in the same direction
00:46:10clockwise 30 times.
00:46:12Wow.
00:46:14I had no idea you had to be so accurate.
00:46:16You do if you want to be the best.
00:46:20No, not like that. Like this.
00:46:28You are the worst student.
00:46:30I'm sorry I can't concentrate
00:46:32because my teacher's so hot.
00:46:40Oh.
00:46:54I'm gonna get you.
00:46:56Come here.
00:47:10Hey, Bella.
00:47:12Remember me?
00:47:14No.
00:47:16I'm your mother.
00:47:18No, you're not.
00:47:20Everly's my mom.
00:47:22I chose her.
00:47:24You little brat.
00:47:26You can't choose your mother.
00:47:28You're born with one and that's what you get.
00:47:30That's enough, Kendra.
00:47:32You're upsetting Bella and causing a scene.
00:47:34Whatever.
00:47:36Move aside.
00:47:38There is.
00:47:42What is she thinking?
00:47:44No, she made those.
00:47:46Her family owns Rossi Cookies.
00:47:48They were franchised.
00:47:50They have stores in every country.
00:47:52You didn't tell me your ex was a world-renowned baker.
00:47:54She doesn't have a tenth of your talent.
00:47:56Her grandma's the baker.
00:47:58She uses the recipes.
00:48:00There's not one creative bone in her body.
00:48:02Oh, my God.
00:48:04That's amazing.
00:48:06I want to buy all of it.
00:48:08Who made this?
00:48:12Julian Barlow?
00:48:14I had no idea he was such a talented baker.
00:48:18Here.
00:48:20Try mine.
00:48:22Not to brag, but the Rossi name
00:48:24is renowned in the world of desserts.
00:48:26Not bad,
00:48:28but nowhere near the Barlow's.
00:48:30I'm telling you, you ought to taste it.
00:48:32It's simply magic in your mouth.
00:48:34I think we know who the winner is.
00:48:42You want to see magic?
00:48:44I'm going to make that bitch disappear.
00:48:46Abra-fucking-cadabra.
00:48:54Can't forget that.
00:48:56Top of Bella's grocery list.
00:48:58She would never forgive me.
00:49:00Well, aren't we the perfect little housewife?
00:49:02That is,
00:49:04until Bella is rushed to the hospital.
00:49:06Oops.
00:49:12Early. Hi.
00:49:14So lucky to run into you here.
00:49:16Oh. Oh, so.
00:49:18I owe you an apology
00:49:20for how rude I was to you earlier.
00:49:22In my defense,
00:49:24you'd have to be a mother to understand
00:49:26I see another woman raising a child.
00:49:28Do you have it in your heart to forgive me?
00:49:30It's Bella and Julian you owe an apology to,
00:49:32not me.
00:49:34Watch your back.
00:49:36There's a long line of women
00:49:38waiting to get their claws into Julian.
00:49:40Beautiful, sexy,
00:49:42sophisticated women
00:49:44who are suited to his lifestyle
00:49:46so he sees every want and desire.
00:49:50Is there some kind of threat?
00:49:52No.
00:49:54Just the cold, hard fact
00:49:56that you, Everly Harper,
00:49:58will never be more than a glorified
00:50:00babysitter to him.
00:50:02It's funny,
00:50:04because you'll never be more than a bitter memory to him.
00:50:08Now stop messing with our family.
00:50:12Next time, I won't be so nice.
00:50:16Next time,
00:50:18you'll be the psycho who drugged Julian's daughter.
00:50:24Can I ask you a question?
00:50:28Why did you choose me?
00:50:30Oh,
00:50:32where's this coming from?
00:50:34I mean, once Bella grows up
00:50:36and doesn't need a mom anymore,
00:50:38will you still want to be with me?
00:50:40Everly, sweetheart,
00:50:42this doesn't sound like you.
00:50:44It's just,
00:50:46I'm not like the society women
00:50:48you've dated in the past.
00:50:50What if you get bored with me?
00:50:52Imagine dating someone
00:50:54who barely eats
00:50:56because they're watching their figure
00:50:58and spends more time with their plastic surgeons
00:51:00and with their family.
00:51:02You mean these society women?
00:51:04You're so bad.
00:51:08I'm sorry.
00:51:10I let Kendra get in my head.
00:51:12When'd you see Kendra?
00:51:14Spell a school.
00:51:18So is Julian Barlow?
00:51:20Emergency room.
00:51:22Uh-huh.
00:51:24I understand. I'm on my way.
00:51:26What's going on? Is Bella okay?
00:51:28The school nurse said that she was poisoned.
00:51:30Something she ate.
00:51:32Something about a lollipop.
00:51:40Bella is asleep.
00:51:42Fortunately, the lab results just showed
00:51:44that it was a common prescribed sedative
00:51:46that she was taking.
00:51:48How does this happen? I don't understand.
00:51:50I have to ask,
00:51:52have you had any threats recently
00:51:54or encountered any suspicious characters?
00:51:58I came as soon as I heard.
00:52:00How is our precious Bella?
00:52:02She's coming along.
00:52:04Poison?
00:52:06My God, what kind of monster
00:52:08would poison an innocent child?
00:52:10With a lollipop, no less.
00:52:12I'm sorry.
00:52:14Doctor, did you say lollipop?
00:52:16The perpetrator
00:52:18poisoned Julian and my daughter
00:52:20with a lollipop.
00:52:22Well,
00:52:24that's interesting
00:52:26because I ran into Everly at the bakery yesterday
00:52:28and I saw one of Bella's
00:52:30favorite rainbow-colored lollipops.
00:52:32Are you suggesting that
00:52:34I had something to do with this?
00:52:36You gave Bella that lollipop,
00:52:38did you not?
00:52:40No.
00:52:44I did,
00:52:46but I can't
00:52:48believe this. Our precious Bella,
00:52:50our little angel,
00:52:52drugged by yet another babysitter.
00:52:54I did no such thing. I would never...
00:52:56Wait, hold on. Bella's been poisoned before?
00:52:58Is this true, Julian?
00:53:00When she was 18 months old, I had a babysitter
00:53:02and I haven't been able to trust anyone
00:53:04since then, just you.
00:53:06But now I...
00:53:08Now what?
00:53:10I'll tell you what.
00:53:12You're not coming near Bella ever again.
00:53:14No, no,
00:53:16this can't be real. You know I would
00:53:18never hurt Bella. You know I love her like she's
00:53:20my own daughter.
00:53:22But she's not. She's ours.
00:53:24Julian,
00:53:26will you be calling security
00:53:28or shall I?
00:53:30Julian,
00:53:32will you be calling security or shall I?
00:53:38Everly, I'm sorry.
00:53:40I'm sorry for ever doubting you, even for a second.
00:53:42I know that you could never harm
00:53:44Bella. Not because
00:53:46you're my wife, but because of your loving heart.
00:53:48Julian, what are you saying?
00:53:50She's dangerous! Stop, Kendra, just stop!
00:53:52But...
00:53:54Look at the evidence.
00:53:56Everly bought the rainbow-colored
00:53:58lollipop for Bella. Who else could have
00:54:00tampered with it?
00:54:02How did you know it was a
00:54:04rainbow lollipop?
00:54:06No one mentioned what color
00:54:08it was.
00:54:10No, you switched them.
00:54:12At the bakery parking lot, that's why you were there.
00:54:14You drugged
00:54:16your own daughter just to frame me? What kind of
00:54:18sicko does that?
00:54:20You can't prove that. But your prescription
00:54:22medicine can. Julian, stop! That's
00:54:24not mine! She's been taking
00:54:26status since I met her.
00:54:28That's exactly what was found
00:54:30in Bella's system. It's, it's, it's...
00:54:32You psychotic bitch!
00:54:34First you tried to kill my daughter, now you're trying to frame
00:54:36my wife? It's common!
00:54:38It could be found from anywhere!
00:54:40It could have been anyone!
00:54:42It could have been you!
00:54:44It was you, wasn't it? I'm telling you
00:54:46it wasn't mine!
00:54:50Bella's waking up.
00:54:56Thank God she's okay.
00:54:58The thought of losing
00:55:00her was too much to bear.
00:55:02We don't have to think about that.
00:55:04She has you.
00:55:06I have you.
00:55:08And we all have each other.
00:55:10Whatever comes our way.
00:55:12That's what family's for.
00:55:14That's what it means
00:55:16to love. And be loved.
00:55:18Exactly.
00:55:22Stop it. We're in the children's ward.
00:55:24I'm pretty sure all these
00:55:26doctors and nurses know how babies are born.
00:55:28They're made.
00:55:32Mommy?
00:55:34Daddy?
00:55:36Brain check?
00:55:38Oh, you can count on it.
00:55:40Is that my little munchkin in there making noise?
00:55:46Welcome in.
00:55:48What gang is that?
00:55:50No.
00:55:52What, is there a rule against selling a cake to your ex?
00:55:54Come on, Emily.
00:55:56Look, Everly, I'm sorry.
00:55:58I made a big mistake, I'll admit that.
00:56:00I changed. I left Olivia.
00:56:02And I just want to start fresh. I want to do this again.
00:56:04Are you serious?
00:56:06Yes, it was all Olivia's doing.
00:56:08You know how manipulative she can be.
00:56:10And I only loved you the entire time.
00:56:12You think Julian?
00:56:14Julian's a multi-billionaire. You think he'd really go
00:56:16for someone like you? I mean, get real, Everly.
00:56:18If he doesn't love you,
00:56:20I do.
00:56:22I wish I would die without you.
00:56:24Get the hell out of my bakery.
00:56:26You fucking bitch.
00:56:28No one's gonna come to save you.
00:56:32Stay away from my wife!
00:56:34Last warning!
00:56:36Stay away from her or I'll break more than just your arm.
00:56:38Motherfucker.
00:56:40If I can't have her,
00:56:42no one can.
00:56:48Thank you for stepping in.
00:56:50I'm sorry.
00:56:52Thank you for stepping in, Julian.
00:56:54I wish I could be here all the time,
00:56:56but I can't.
00:56:58Nolan.
00:57:00It's gonna be a problem.
00:57:02I can't exactly lock my doors.
00:57:04Don't work by yourself anymore.
00:57:06Make sure Samantha's with you.
00:57:12Something for the munchkins.
00:57:14Thanks.
00:57:18I have to pick her up right now.
00:57:20See you later?
00:57:22Stay alert.
00:57:38And the hits keep coming.
00:57:40First my ex,
00:57:42now his.
00:57:44When will we ever catch a break?
00:57:50We have to keep that from Bella.
00:57:52I'll get my lawyer to file a restraining order
00:57:54against Kendra this week.
00:57:56Maybe there's a way we can make peace
00:57:58with Bella's mom.
00:58:00We've tried.
00:58:02She's turned every attempt against us,
00:58:04including Bella.
00:58:06I can't risk
00:58:08losing my daughter.
00:58:12How can I help protect Bella?
00:58:14No, Everly, it's not your fight.
00:58:16Yes, it is. Contract or not,
00:58:18you and I are in this together.
00:58:20I can't stand by while you and Bella suffer.
00:58:44What if Bella wakes up?
00:58:46She hung her head years ago.
00:58:48I just kept it.
00:58:50I know.
00:59:16I know.
00:59:36What are your thoughts
00:59:38on a family date?
00:59:40The three of us.
00:59:42You want to go on a picnic?
00:59:44I'll go wherever you'll take me.
00:59:50So where did you get Bun Bun?
00:59:52When I was three years old.
00:59:54Yep, we were outside
00:59:56and she saw a rabbit run across the yard
00:59:58and she looked at me and reached her hands out
01:00:00and I said, no, you can't have a wild animal.
01:00:02So she started crying.
01:00:04So naturally I got her Bun Bun the next day.
01:00:06Naturally.
01:00:14My baby, come to mom.
01:00:16What are you doing here?
01:00:18You look like a stalker.
01:00:20I'm still your mother
01:00:22and I brought your favorite food,
01:00:24strawberries.
01:00:26Everly loves me more than you
01:00:28and I love her too.
01:00:30And I can't eat strawberries.
01:00:32Darling,
01:00:34that woman is just
01:00:36after daddy's money.
01:00:38You're lying. I hate you.
01:00:40You can't talk to me like that.
01:00:42I'm your mother.
01:00:44No, you're not. Everly is my mommy.
01:00:46You're scary.
01:00:48You little brat.
01:00:50Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:00:52Mommy, daddy!
01:00:54Someone needs to teach you
01:00:56some manners.
01:00:58Mommy, daddy!
01:01:00Kendra, what the hell?
01:01:02I'm trying to protect my daughter from this fucking bitch.
01:01:04Hey, watch your language in front of Bella.
01:01:06Strawberries?
01:01:08Kendra, are you insane?
01:01:10She's deathly allergic.
01:01:12How was I supposed to know? You never let me see Bethany.
01:01:14That's a lie. You abandoned her.
01:01:16Shut up, you lying gold digger.
01:01:18I'm twice the mother that you'll ever be.
01:01:20Bella!
01:01:22Come back, sweetie.
01:01:24She's overwhelmed. You're scaring her.
01:01:26You know
01:01:28nothing about my daughter.
01:01:30But I know about you.
01:01:32You're just a foster kid,
01:01:34one step up from the gutter.
01:01:36Bella and I both know that Everly
01:01:38doesn't want this thing to happen to this family.
01:01:40Bella,
01:01:42sweetie, you can't possibly
01:01:44think that this poor substitute
01:01:46is better than a real mother.
01:01:48We have the same blood.
01:01:50You're part Rossi.
01:01:52You can't ask your daughter that. Shut up!
01:01:54Kendra, this isn't some game
01:01:56that you can win. This is Bella and Julian's
01:01:58lives.
01:02:00I don't know why, but you abandoned them.
01:02:02You trying to snatch them back
01:02:04just so you can win won't make you happy.
01:02:06You have to move on.
01:02:08You have to move on.
01:02:12I know I don't deserve her,
01:02:14but I found out last month
01:02:16that I'm infertile.
01:02:18I can never
01:02:20have another baby.
01:02:22Bella's it for me.
01:02:24Oh!
01:02:34I know she's done some bad things,
01:02:36but she's still your mother, Bella.
01:02:38Why don't you go give her a hug?
01:02:44I don't really hate you.
01:02:46I know, baby.
01:02:50It's all my fault.
01:02:54You're right.
01:02:56I only
01:02:58wanted to win.
01:03:00You can win a game, but you can
01:03:02never win someone's heart.
01:03:04You're very wise.
01:03:06Don't get me wrong, I don't want to be
01:03:08your friend. I'm just
01:03:10trying to leave my daughter with a happy memory.
01:03:16Take care, Kendra.
01:03:18Maybe one day I'll let Bella write you. She's older.
01:03:20Bye, sweetie.
01:03:26She fell for my sob story.
01:03:28Stupid bitch.
01:03:30I won't stop until I get my man back
01:03:32and the kid with him.
01:03:40Oh!
01:03:42What's all this for?
01:03:44100th Annual
01:03:46International Bake Off.
01:03:48Sounds like a big deal.
01:03:50It's invitation only,
01:03:52and I can't believe I got in.
01:03:54If I do well, it'll really help
01:03:56put the bakery on the map.
01:03:58Well, given how you rocked that bake sale,
01:04:00you've got this in the bag.
01:04:02That was nothing. I need a showstopper that's
01:04:04going to dazzle their taste buds and
01:04:06win over their hearts.
01:04:08Hmm.
01:04:10So what's the secret weapon?
01:04:12Vanilla rosemary five-layer cake
01:04:14topped with a lavender buttercream
01:04:16and a hint of orange zest.
01:04:18Sounds like I need to clear some space on the mantle
01:04:20for that first place trophy.
01:04:22Cut it out!
01:04:24I'm trying to concentrate.
01:04:26Oh. Am I distracting you?
01:04:28I'm a sucker for a messy
01:04:30apron.
01:04:32Okay, fine.
01:04:34You can stay, but you have to make yourself
01:04:36useful.
01:04:38What's first, chef?
01:04:42Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our
01:04:44100th annual international bake-off.
01:04:46Please find your seat.
01:04:48Our competition will start shortly.
01:04:56You got this, girl. We'll be in the front row
01:04:58cheering you on, okay?
01:05:00Thank you, Sammy. I'm going to check my presentation one more time.
01:05:06Knock them dead out there, sweetheart.
01:05:10Good luck.
01:05:14There you are,
01:05:16falling nicely into my trap.
01:05:18Who do you think arranged the invite,
01:05:20you pathetic nobody?
01:05:32Hey, Everly.
01:05:34Ready to get crushed?
01:05:36Yo, what are you doing here?
01:05:38Are you stalking me?
01:05:40You look scared.
01:05:42You should be.
01:05:44I'm going to win that trophy
01:05:46and confuse the better baker and mother.
01:05:50I'm infertile.
01:05:52I can never have another baby.
01:05:54So everything you said at the park was a lie.
01:05:56You're not infertile. You just can't
01:05:58stand that Bella chose me.
01:06:00I'm her fucking mother, bitch.
01:06:02You're a monster.
01:06:04And you're just an amateur who doesn't deserve to be here.
01:06:06Did you really
01:06:08think you earned a place in this competition?
01:06:10I'm the one who got the judges
01:06:12to invite you, and now Julian's going to see
01:06:14what a poor orphan loser
01:06:16you truly are.
01:06:18Bring it on, Rossi.
01:06:20My recipe has heart
01:06:22and soul, and they will beat your
01:06:24assembly line crap any day.
01:06:28Oh, yeah?
01:06:30Do you know what goes great with cake?
01:06:32What?
01:06:34Coffee.
01:06:36Oops!
01:06:42Kendra, what the hell?
01:06:44You better go get cleaned up.
01:06:46I wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:06:48So unsanitary.
01:07:07Your knight in shining armor
01:07:09can't save your ass this time.
01:07:11Never leave.
01:07:13Our next competitor,
01:07:15Kendra Rossi.
01:07:20Hi, judge.
01:07:22This is my own
01:07:24one-of-a-kind original recipe.
01:07:28A vanilla
01:07:30rosemary five-layer cake
01:07:32with lavender buttercream and a hint
01:07:34of orange zest.
01:07:36That's my cake!
01:07:40What are you talking about?
01:07:42You stole my recipe.
01:07:44A nobody accusing me,
01:07:46a Rossi, of cheating?
01:07:48How dare you?
01:07:50Man.
01:07:52You have impeccable taste in women
01:07:54because obviously you chose Everly,
01:07:56but that woman up there?
01:07:58How did you end up with such a nightmare ex?
01:08:00I was young
01:08:02and stupid.
01:08:04Yeah, obviously.
01:08:06So what are we going to do to salvage this?
01:08:08Can't you just pull some strings or something?
01:08:10You're Julie and freaking Barlow, for goodness sake.
01:08:12It's not that simple.
01:08:14I know Everly wouldn't want to win that way.
01:08:16Dammit.
01:08:18So what do we do now?
01:08:20Kendra can't get away with this.
01:08:24A nobody accusing me,
01:08:26a Rossi, of cheating?
01:08:28How dare you?
01:08:32Oops!
01:08:34You better go get cleaned up.
01:08:36Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:08:38So that's why you spilled coffee on me.
01:08:40So you could hack my laptop behind my back
01:08:42the same way you switched the lollipops
01:08:44behind my back when you poisoned Bella.
01:08:48That is a serious accusation.
01:08:50Now, can you prove
01:08:52that this cake is your creation?
01:08:54Here's your proof.
01:09:02We can't see anything.
01:09:04The screen is blank.
01:09:08We can't see anything.
01:09:10The screen is blank.
01:09:12What happened to my files? They're not there.
01:09:14As I said,
01:09:16this recipe is mine and mine alone.
01:09:18No, no, no, no. It's not true.
01:09:20Kendra Rossi, you're a thief.
01:09:22I think we've heard enough.
01:09:24Sir, I know this recipe,
01:09:26my recipe by heart. I can recite it from memory.
01:09:28I'm afraid that doesn't
01:09:30prove anything.
01:09:32Now, I think it's best
01:09:34that you leave the stage now
01:09:36for I have to disqualify you.
01:09:38Isn't that
01:09:40the baker from Sweet Escape Bakery?
01:09:42Not going to her shop
01:09:44ever.
01:09:48Wait!
01:09:52Wait!
01:09:54This will prove
01:09:56the recipe is Everly's.
01:10:00Now,
01:10:02you're going to want to let it cool
01:10:04for about 10 minutes.
01:10:06Hey, back on me.
01:10:08This is the important part.
01:10:10The last step is to lightly dust
01:10:12with a layer of orange zest,
01:10:14just enough to reach the edges.
01:10:20And then you're going to want to
01:10:22add a pinch of salt.
01:10:24And...
01:10:26voila!
01:10:28Maybe the time stamp of this raw footage
01:10:30was taken two weeks ago.
01:10:32And speaking from experience,
01:10:34no one can make this
01:10:36cake exactly like my wife.
01:10:44Something's
01:10:46different.
01:10:48Taste for yourself.
01:10:54Salt.
01:10:56Missing the salt. I didn't include it
01:10:58in my recipe notes. It was a last-minute, spur-of-the-moment
01:11:00addition. Totally spontaneous.
01:11:02And yet, it made all the
01:11:04difference in the world.
01:11:06Salt?
01:11:08Salt?
01:11:26Salt or not,
01:11:28this is no ordinary cake.
01:11:30And it could only come
01:11:32from the heart and soul
01:11:34of an extraordinary
01:11:36baker.
01:11:42You almost ruined my wife today!
01:11:44This is your last straw!
01:11:46Confess, or I'm calling the police!
01:11:48But I didn't.
01:11:50Okay, okay!
01:11:52I didn't.
01:11:55I did it.
01:11:57All of it.
01:11:59Are you happy now? Dragging me in the mud
01:12:01like this in front of everyone?
01:12:03Julian, you broke my heart!
01:12:05You have to have a heart for it to be broken.
01:12:07How can you say that?
01:12:09I loved you
01:12:11more than anything. And then this
01:12:13bitch gets into the picture and suddenly I'm
01:12:15nothing? Just some
01:12:17garbage you can throw away?
01:12:19What is so special about her, Julian?
01:12:21She's not prettier than me.
01:12:23She can't be better in bed than me.
01:12:25What do you possibly see in her that you don't
01:12:27see in me?
01:12:29Maybe I'm just a better baker than you, Kendra.
01:12:33Here.
01:12:35Have a taste. I don't want your
01:12:37stupid salt.
01:12:39Oh my god!
01:12:41It smells disgusting.
01:12:43It smells like
01:12:45a rotten potato chip. And Bella
01:12:47could have made a better cake than that.
01:12:50I...
01:12:52I don't even know
01:12:54what to say about everything that's going on here.
01:12:56Say I can present my cake.
01:12:58That's all I came
01:13:00here to do, sir.
01:13:02Fair enough. The ingredients in my cake
01:13:04are pretty traditional in terms of regular
01:13:06cake ingredients. I like the rosemary because it
01:13:08tends to cut through the sweetness
01:13:10of traditional cakes while also balancing
01:13:12the orange zest aromatic flavoring
01:13:14that we really look for in a well-balanced
01:13:16cake. I also, um, not
01:13:18listed. I add a little bit of salt on top
01:13:20just to balance everything out, and
01:13:22I hope you really like it.
01:13:30We have seen
01:13:32a lot of great bakes this year.
01:13:34But nothing in the
01:13:36history of this competition has
01:13:38ever compared to this
01:13:40year's first prize winner,
01:13:42Everly Harper!
01:13:44This year's
01:13:46first prize winner, Everly
01:13:48Harper!
01:13:52Congratulations, Miss Harper. Truly
01:13:54well-deserved.
01:13:56Would you excuse me?
01:14:02Oh, we did it, Samantha, we did it!
01:14:04No, Everly, you did this.
01:14:06Hold on.
01:14:10Listen to this. Orders
01:14:12are flooding in like crazy.
01:14:14No, no, no, no, no. I've got this.
01:14:16Trust me. Now get out of here.
01:14:18Go celebrate with your hubby.
01:14:20Yeah?
01:14:22I am so
01:14:24proud of you, Everly.
01:14:34Get lost.
01:14:36I'm more likely to stick a bitch
01:14:38than suck a dick right now.
01:14:40Good. Then we both
01:14:42want the same thing.
01:14:44Yeah? What's that?
01:14:46Revenge.
01:14:48I've spent the last two weeks learning everything
01:14:50I can about Julian Barlow and Everly Harper's
01:14:52relationship. And I think
01:14:54what I found might interest you.
01:14:56Who the fuck are you?
01:14:58I'm someone that hates
01:15:00Julian, and I heard you're someone
01:15:02that hates Everly.
01:15:04So I have a plan that'll get us both
01:15:06what we want.
01:15:08I'm listening.
01:15:12Okay.
01:15:18Am I doing it right? Those look great.
01:15:20Just squeeze your bag a little bit tighter.
01:15:22More icing equals more smiles.
01:15:26Okay.
01:15:28Time to switch to croissants.
01:15:30The chocolate-filled kind? All different kinds.
01:15:32Can you go in the freezer in the back
01:15:34and get me two blocks of butter?
01:15:36They are left side, middle shelf.
01:15:38Left side, middle shelf, two blocks.
01:15:40Okay.
01:15:56You're coming with me, Bella.
01:15:58I'm your mother, not that whore.
01:16:00Everly!
01:16:02Save your breath, kid.
01:16:04She can't hear you anyway.
01:16:06Everly!
01:16:08Everly! Shut up.
01:16:14Go!
01:16:16Go!
01:16:36Bella?
01:16:38Bella? Bella!
01:16:46Bella?
01:16:52Everly!
01:16:54Back here!
01:16:58Tits.
01:17:00Shh.
01:17:10This is Julian Barlow.
01:17:12I have your daughter,
01:17:14200 million in cash by sundown.
01:17:16She won't see the sunrise.
01:17:18What did you do with Bella? Who is this?
01:17:2010 million.
01:17:22Unmarked bills split into two separate duffel bags.
01:17:24Let me talk to Bella.
01:17:26I need to know she's safe.
01:17:28Only after I get the money.
01:17:30Damn you! She's just a little girl.
01:17:32There's an abandoned campsite at the end of Canyon Ridge Road.
01:17:34Put the cash inside the office cabin
01:17:36and come alone.
01:17:38Because I'll be watching.
01:17:40When do I get Bella?
01:17:44What are we going to do?
01:17:46I'll call my bank.
01:17:48I'll get the money within an hour.
01:17:50Okay.
01:17:52Hello?
01:17:54Anybody?
01:17:56Hello?
01:17:58What is she doing here?
01:18:00I need an explanation for this.
01:18:02Mother, now is not the time for this.
01:18:04I had to learn from Kendra
01:18:06that you're not married at all,
01:18:08that you faked everything.
01:18:10What is this? This is for my sake.
01:18:12Combination with Bella's birthday.
01:18:14Very sloppy of you, Julian.
01:18:16How could you lie to your own mother
01:18:18and present this fraud
01:18:20as if she were actually your wife?
01:18:22I knew she was a gold digger,
01:18:24but I didn't know she was a tramp for hire.
01:18:26Silence!
01:18:28This is not important right now.
01:18:30That is just a piece of paper, Mother.
01:18:32I have to find Bella.
01:18:34She's been kidnapped.
01:18:36My grandbaby has been kidnapped?
01:18:38What happened?
01:18:40Bella and I were baking,
01:18:42and someone grabbed me.
01:18:44I blacked out, and when I woke up,
01:18:46she was gone.
01:18:48I have to get the ransom money together now,
01:18:50so if you two could please just...
01:18:52Just what?
01:18:54Stand aside and let you handle it?
01:18:56You brought this tramp into my daughter's home,
01:18:58and because of her,
01:19:00Bella's life is at stake.
01:19:02Ew.
01:19:04It smells.
01:19:06You just let common street trash walk in here?
01:19:08Don't talk about him like that.
01:19:10Bernie is a veteran. He served our country.
01:19:12I'm sorry, Bernie.
01:19:14I don't have the day-olds for you today.
01:19:16But I have something for you.
01:19:18That lady?
01:19:20I saw her. And a tall man.
01:19:24Go back and crawl
01:19:26into whatever hole you came out of, you filthy animal.
01:19:30I saw them.
01:19:34They took that little girl.
01:19:36You fucking bitch!
01:19:38What did you do? Where's Bella?
01:19:40He's obviously deranged. Or on drugs. Or both.
01:19:42The tall man.
01:19:44Did he have short, blonde hair?
01:19:46Athletic build?
01:19:52Nolan. She's working with Nolan.
01:19:54Where is she?
01:19:56Where's Bella? Tell me now!
01:19:58I...
01:20:00Oh!
01:20:02What the hell?
01:20:04Where's my daughter?
01:20:12Where is she?
01:20:14Where is she?
01:20:30Daddy?
01:20:36My little escape artist.
01:20:38You can come out now, Munchkin.
01:20:40It's safe.
01:20:42Daddy and Emily are here.
01:20:48Hey.
01:20:54This is ridiculous!
01:20:56It's not kidnapping, it's your own child!
01:21:00This is ridiculous!
01:21:02It's not kidnapping, it's your own child!
01:21:06It's over.
01:21:08It's finally over.
01:21:10Isn't me and mommy
01:21:12gone for good, daddy?
01:21:14She'll never bother you again, Munchkin.
01:21:16I want you both to know that
01:21:18I'm very ashamed for my part
01:21:20in Kendra's scheme.
01:21:22But you can't continue this fake marriage.
01:21:24You're right, mother.
01:21:30Beverly Harper,
01:21:32you're the most loving, brave, and talented
01:21:34woman I've ever known.
01:21:36Your beauty is just dessert
01:21:38while my life feels full
01:21:40with you in it.
01:21:42Will you do me the honor of marrying me?
01:21:44Emily!
01:21:52Julian Barlow,
01:21:54if I was to create a recipe for the
01:21:56bravest, smartest, most loving man,
01:21:58it would be you.
01:22:02Your wealth is not a dessert,
01:22:04but a mere appetizer.
01:22:06Yes, I will marry you.
01:22:08Emily, too.
01:22:14I don't know what all that nonsense about food was,
01:22:16but the rest was lovely.
01:22:20I guess I'll give the girl a chance if she can make
01:22:22my son and grandbaby smile like that.
01:22:32Oh my gosh, do you see that?
01:22:36Woo!
01:22:42So pretty.
01:22:48I helped make that.
01:22:50Yes, you did, Bella.
01:22:52Have you guys ever seen such a beautiful family?
01:22:54I'm so happy for you.
01:22:56Thanks, bestie.
01:22:58Mommy,
01:23:00how about a cake fight?
01:23:02You're a girl after my own heart, Bella.
01:23:04Everybody,
01:23:06cake fight!
01:23:34Couldn't you have
01:23:36gotten me something more practical?
01:23:38This is going to be a bear to bake with.
01:23:40Only my wife would complain about a
01:23:4215-carat flawless diamond
01:23:44being too big.
01:23:46Sorry.
01:23:48I'm not.
01:23:52God, I love you.
01:23:56Hey, Mr. Barlow,
01:23:58I'm sorry.
01:24:00I love you.
01:24:04Hey, Mr. Barlow.
01:24:06Hey, Miss Barlow.
01:24:08Who said I was changing my name?
01:24:14On the topic of change,
01:24:16I've been thinking.
01:24:18Bella needs a playmate.
01:24:20What do you think we give her a sibling?
01:24:22Just one.
01:24:24Lost her kid here.
01:24:26I always dreamed of having a big family.
01:24:28How big are we talking?
