00:00I think I'll grab this one too.
00:17An excellent choice, Ms. Blackstock.
00:20A pleasure as always, Ms. Blackstock.
00:22Likewise, Jarvis.
00:23Do you have a busy afternoon planned?
00:25I think I'm just going to grab a latte and head home.
00:28Oh, an excellent suggestion.
00:29I think I shall join you.
00:39No, no, no, no, no, Mr. Thank You.
00:41No, you have to pay for your coffee first,
00:44or you can leave, so.
00:45I'm telling you that my assistant is coming
00:47in a few minutes with my money.
00:49Your assistant?
00:50Yes.
00:51Honey, you can't even afford a comb,
00:52let alone an assistant.
00:53Oh, God.
00:53Is there a problem here?
00:55Ms. Abigail, no, not at all.
00:58This customer was just leaving.
01:00Not without my Americana.
01:02What did I tell you?
01:04It's fine, Evan, I'll just get it.
01:06Oh.
01:28Oh, my God, is he trying to steal your phone security?
01:31Unbelievable.
01:32Evan, it's okay, I'm just.
01:37And I have one for you, Ms. Abigail,
01:39on the house, our favorite customer, just for you.
01:43Thanks.
01:46Enjoy your coffee.
01:51Beautiful, rich, and nice.
01:54She really has it all, doesn't she?
01:57Who is she?
01:58I have to pay her back somehow.
02:00Oh, my God, you really are poor, aren't you?
02:03You don't even know her, that's Abigail Blackstock?
02:06You know, just the daughter
02:07of the richest man in the state?
02:08With debts, Alistair Blackstock's daughter?
02:11The one and only, and you should feel
02:13not just lucky to be in her presence,
02:16but to be her daily charity case.
02:17Now get out of my store.
02:20Back to the office, Mr. Caldwell.
02:22Not yet, John, we need to make a detour.
02:24Where to, sir?
02:25Alistair Blackstock's home.
02:30Oh.
02:40It's all gone.
02:41What do you mean, it's all gone?
02:43I'm not going to be able to get my phone back.
02:45I'm not going to be able to get my phone back.
02:47I'm not going to be able to get my phone back.
02:50How have you lost billions of dollars?
02:54It's the liquidity.
02:55All the money is tied up in the companies.
02:58You know that.
03:00That means there's only one fix.
03:04No, I am not going to have my daughter marry somebody-
03:08Abigail!
03:10That's the person I was hoping to see.
03:13What do you want, Ophelia?
03:15That's no way to talk to your stepmother.
03:19It's time you earn your keep.
03:22Excuse me?
03:25It's not right for a grown woman
03:28to be living off of her father's money.
03:32And yet, you do it so well.
03:34Watch it!
03:36I will not tolerate any disrespect from you any further.
03:41Your father and I have been talking and we agree
03:44it's time for you to settle down.
03:48In order for you to receive your inheritance
03:50from your mother by your 25th birthday,
03:53you need to be married.
03:56What?
04:00Dad, she's not serious, is she?
04:03Oh, yes, she is.
04:09We both are.
04:12No, that's stupid.
04:14That will never hold up in court.
04:17I'm afraid it will.
04:18You see, your darling daddy realized
04:21how much he was spoiling you,
04:23so he amended the terms of the inheritance,
04:25that you could only receive it if you were married.
04:28You did what?
04:30I can't believe you.
04:32Mom would be ashamed of you.
04:34Sweetie,
04:38what's done is
04:42done.
04:44You heard him.
04:46Get married and receive the money
04:48or stay single and lose everything.
04:51That's impossible.
04:54I turn 25 in one month.
04:56Who the hell am I supposed to marry in that time?
05:17Why me, of course.
05:20You're joking, right?
05:22Walter, your nephew?
05:25It's a fine match.
05:28Come on, don't be shy.
05:29This is no way to greet your fiance.
05:32I will never marry you.
05:34I'd rather pluck out my own eyes and eat them.
05:36Disgusting.
05:38Abigail, please.
05:40I'm begging you.
05:41I'm begging you.
05:42I'm begging you.
05:43I'm begging you.
05:44I'm begging you.
05:45Please.
05:48You're like a wild horse that needs to be tamed.
05:52I'm gonna whip you into shape real quick.
05:54Get off of me.
05:57I'll let you have your strong,
05:58independent woman shit for now.
06:01But when you're with me, that's all gonna change.
06:05Alistair, look, they're already bonding.
06:11Don't ever lay your hands on me again.
06:15Dad, you can't be serious.
06:19These are the terms of the will.
06:21If you don't marry Walter,
06:23you don't get your inheritance, that is your choice.
06:35Then I choose a third option.
06:37There is no third option.
06:40Let's make a bet.
06:42A bet?
06:44If I can't find someone to marry before I'm 25,
06:47then I'll willingly marry Walter.
