Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Hey, this is Richard Allenton, I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:15Hey Grandpa, it's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody-two-shoe
00:00:21women, but to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind
00:00:27date, that's low.
00:00:33Let's hope this one's different.
00:00:35I don't even know what to say to this guy.
00:00:38I don't know how to talk to rich people.
00:00:41Be sexy.
00:00:42Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.
00:00:46And being sexy is easy.
00:00:48Bite your lip, push up the girls.
00:00:51It works every time.
00:00:52Wait, what about girls?
00:00:54And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.
00:00:58So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.
00:01:02I don't think I can do this.
00:01:04The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your
00:01:08mother's surgery.
00:01:09It's your call.
00:01:24Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:01:44Of course.
00:01:46Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.
00:01:52You're so...
00:01:53Rich?
00:01:54Sexy?
00:01:55Frankly, yes.
00:01:58Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:02Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:04And you are?
00:02:05Blaine Ellington.
00:02:06CEO of Ellington.
00:02:10Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:12And you are?
00:02:13Blaine Ellington.
00:02:14CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:18And this is a successful company?
00:02:20It's not ringing any bells.
00:02:24Waiter?
00:02:25Yes, Mr. Ellington.
00:02:26You still have the Chateau Petrus on the shelf, yes?
00:02:30Yes, of course.
00:02:31If so, we'll have two bottles.
00:02:34It's $60,000 per bottle, sir.
00:02:37You want two?
00:02:39Actually, I'm pretty thirsty.
00:02:42Better bring three.
00:02:44Yes, of course, right away, sir.
00:02:51And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:02:54I invest.
00:02:56In what?
00:02:58In everything.
00:03:01What am I not investing in?
00:03:04Businesses.
00:03:05Charities.
00:03:08I see.
00:03:09And you live in the city?
00:03:12The city.
00:03:14The hills.
00:03:16My yacht.
00:03:18My private island.
00:03:21I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:23You're so impressive.
00:03:26So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:03:30Doesn't surprise me.
00:03:31I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:03:37Um, you've got a little, uh...
00:03:51Kurt?
00:03:52Kurt?
00:03:53What's my manager doing here?
00:03:56Blaine.
00:03:59My business dinner just ended.
00:04:00The presentation for the China branch is looking good.
00:04:03Amazing.
00:04:04You're the best, Kurt.
00:04:05Well, I just, uh, won't keep you two.
00:04:06Just wanted to say hi.
00:04:09Rose petals for a business dinner?
00:04:11Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:12Ah, classic.
00:04:14All right, well, you two have fun.
00:04:22I've got to be honest with you.
00:04:26You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with.
00:04:29Would you like to come to my place?
00:04:32I can take this chance to get closer to the A.I. code.
00:04:35Absolutely, darling.
00:04:42Whoa.
00:04:45Welcome to my home.
00:04:47After you.
00:04:57Oh, my.
00:05:12You like what you see?
00:05:15You're getting there, darling.
00:05:17Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:20Well, then, shall we get started?
00:05:25Not so fast.
00:05:28Okay, a little foreplay?
00:05:31I did not think this through at all.
00:05:33How am I supposed to find the drive when he's trying to suck my face off?
00:05:41Looking for something?
00:05:43Oh, um...
00:05:46Ah.
00:05:48I should have known that was your style.
00:05:51I should have known that was your style.
00:05:54Oh, yes, darling.
00:05:57Ugh, I can't believe people are actually into this.
00:06:00I'm not used to being the one tied up.
00:06:02It's usually the other way around.
00:06:08Valentina?
00:06:10Patience, darling.
00:06:12I'm building the suspense.
00:06:15Ah, I see.
00:06:17Where could it be?
00:06:19Yes, and...
00:06:21You say guys actually like this?
00:06:23Oh, yes.
00:06:24It's very popular with the manly men in France.
00:06:30How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:06:37That's...
00:06:38That's new.
00:06:42The painting!
00:06:43Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:06:45Oh, uh...
00:06:46Sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:06:49It looks exactly like the one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:06:54It's where I keep my safe.
00:06:57People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:07:01I thought that was only in the movies.
00:07:03Oh, no, it's quite popular.
00:07:06Where do you hide your luxurious safe keepings?
00:07:10In a super, super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:14Oh, come on.
00:07:18Now, why don't you come over here and get this thing started?
00:07:22Oh, uh...
00:07:23Most unfortunate, I'm getting the utmost important business call,
00:07:27and I must take it.
00:07:29Right now?
00:07:30What?
00:07:31What about me?
00:07:33Valentina!
00:07:37Wait!
00:07:38Untie me!
00:07:44Ew.
00:07:45Really, Blaine?
00:07:47What?
00:07:48You and your models.
00:07:51Last night was not a model.
00:07:54I was actually impressed.
00:07:56Did I hear right?
00:07:58Blaine actually had a date he liked?
00:08:01It was fantastic.
00:08:03The other girls are so boring.
00:08:05But this one...
00:08:07She's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:09I must see her again.
00:08:11Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:15It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:22Grandfather.
00:08:23Hmm?
00:08:24Listen to him.
00:08:25He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:08:27I am much more qualified...
00:08:28Oh, yeah.
00:08:30I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:08:33No, no, no, no.
00:08:35Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:08:38Right?
00:08:40You weren't meant to be some CEO.
00:08:42No, but Blaine...
00:08:44Blaine will learn in time.
00:08:46Whatever.
00:08:48Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:08:51I have actual work to attend to.
00:08:57Yeah, yeah, thanks.
00:09:05Hello?
00:09:06How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:10To...
00:09:11Perfection.
00:09:13Charity has Blaine wrapped around her finger.
00:09:15It won't be long until he flips up,
00:09:17and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:22Brilliant.
00:09:23It's all coming together perfectly.
00:09:25And the VR tech you're developing...
00:09:27It'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?
00:09:30Oh, yes.
00:09:31It'll be ready.
00:09:32Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.
00:09:39I can't stop thinking about this girl from last night.
00:09:42I mean, she's...
00:09:43It's about time we broke up.
00:09:44What's he doing here?
00:09:45Speaking of girls,
00:09:46I think I know who would be perfect as your new assistant.
00:09:50Oh!
00:09:51Sorry.
00:09:52I'm fine.
00:09:55Ariel!
00:09:56How does he know my name?
00:09:58You dropped your badge.
00:10:09There you go.
00:10:10Thanks.
00:10:18She's amazing.
00:10:22Are you playing hide-and-seek?
00:10:23Is that where you were laying?
00:10:24Can I hide next?
00:10:25No, I was dropping my mom off at the hospital.
00:10:28Oh, that was unexpectedly personal.
00:10:30Wait, oh my god, is she okay?
00:10:32Should I bring her a fruit basket?
00:10:33She's just getting some tests done.
00:10:35Oh, thank goodness.
00:10:37Hey, by the way, did you hear?
00:10:39Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.
00:10:41Are you gonna apply?
00:10:42I'm good where I am.
00:10:43Not all the girls are applying.
00:10:45Everyone wants to get close to our boss.
00:10:47You're the best employee in our department, Ariel.
00:10:49I think this position is yours.
00:11:00He's gorgeous.
00:11:02I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:06Attention, everyone.
00:11:08My name is Blaine, and I'm the new CEO.
00:11:12I will try my best to live up to my father,
00:11:15but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:19And since he is adjusting to this new role,
00:11:22I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:11:25Not me, not me, not me.
00:11:27Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:11:33All right, everyone, back to work.
00:11:42You look exactly like...
00:11:46Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:11:52Kurt described.
00:11:54Clean, organized desk.
00:11:56Confident composure.
00:11:58There'd be a pay raise.
00:12:00There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:03This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:06When do I start?
00:12:08Perfect.
00:12:10First thing I need help with is this file.
00:12:12Oh, um, gotta take a phone call.
00:12:15Send it to me in an e-mail.
00:12:19Ariel, he wants to meet you again.
00:12:22Really?
00:12:24Also, I got you a second number.
00:12:26Just click the link to connect it,
00:12:28so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:12:31Great.
00:12:38New number, huh?
00:12:42Hello?
00:12:44Hello, Ariel? This is Dr. Westphal.
00:12:46We just got your mother's results.
00:12:52It's not what we hoped.
00:12:54So we need to move quickly
00:12:56if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.
00:12:59Okay, I understand.
00:13:01I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:14Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:16I just finished dinner.
00:13:18Mom, you should be in bed.
00:13:20Honey, I'm fine.
00:13:22You've been working all day. You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.
00:13:24Mom, please.
00:13:26Honey, sit down.
00:13:37The doctor called.
00:13:39He says it's gotten worse.
00:13:41Hush, hush, hush.
00:13:43None of that talk, okay?
00:13:45Mom.
00:13:47Eat before your food gets cold.
00:13:53I'll be right back.
00:14:01It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:03Are you ready?
00:14:05Yeah.
00:14:09Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:11I'll make it to go.
00:14:14Oh, where am I?
00:14:20Valentina.
00:14:22Blaine.
00:14:24Darling.
00:14:26What is this?
00:14:28I don't know.
00:14:30It's just a dream.
00:14:32It's just a dream.
00:14:34It's just a dream.
00:14:36It's just a dream.
00:14:38It's just a dream.
00:14:40It's just a dream.
00:14:42What is this dreadful place?
00:14:44Do you intend to have me killed?
00:14:46No, not at all.
00:14:48This place is special.
00:14:50Follow me.
00:15:02Hurry, Laura.
00:15:04We're almost there. Come on.
00:15:12Okay.
00:15:20Wow.
00:15:30Did you look at that view?
00:15:34I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:15:36Just you, actually.
00:15:38I discovered this place
00:15:40after my father died.
00:15:42Your family died?
00:15:44Yeah.
00:15:46I've been thrown into the CEO position
00:15:48and
00:15:50I'm a bit in over my head
00:15:52so I never really get a chance
00:15:54to myself except when I come here.
00:15:58I'm so sorry.
00:16:06My mom is sick.
00:16:10She needs
00:16:12experimental surgery.
00:16:16That's how it feels
00:16:18to
00:16:20want to get away.
00:16:22Yeah.
00:16:24I'm used to getting everything
00:16:26but this is one thing
00:16:28that money can't buy.
00:16:30I'm so sorry
00:16:32about your mom.
00:16:34Thanks.
00:16:36She's all I've got.
00:16:38I don't want to say goodbye
00:16:40to her.
00:16:50Hey! Who's out here?
00:16:56What's happening?
00:16:58Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.
00:17:00What?
00:17:02Run!
00:17:08Hey!
00:17:10Still!
00:17:18What was that?
00:17:20That was fun.
00:17:22Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that adventurous?
00:17:24No, I suppose not.
00:17:28I haven't felt this way
00:17:30in a really long time.
00:17:32I feel like
00:17:34I can be myself around you.
00:17:36Do you feel the same way?
00:17:38Will you be my girlfriend, Valentina?
00:17:40That's right. I'm supposed to be Valentina.
00:17:42I can't do this to him.
00:17:48But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.
00:17:52I'd love to.
00:17:56Well, well, well.
00:18:00Martina, what are you doing here?
00:18:02I heard you were
00:18:04actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:18:06Had to see it for myself.
00:18:08Well,
00:18:10that blind date went so well the other night
00:18:12it got me thinking maybe Grandfather
00:18:14was right. Is that so?
00:18:16Blaine's got himself
00:18:18a little girlfriend?
00:18:20That's right. Wow.
00:18:22What's she like? She's funny,
00:18:24mysterious, confident,
00:18:26hardworking, charitable.
00:18:28She's the whole package.
00:18:30Sounds like one
00:18:32that Dad actually would have approved of.
00:18:34I'd love to meet her.
00:18:36Oh, sorry,
00:18:38Mr. Ellington. Is this a bad time?
00:18:40No, not at all. My sister just
00:18:42came to visit. Martina, this is my
00:18:44new assistant, Ariel.
00:18:46Martina, nice to meet you.
00:18:48Likewise. Glad to see my
00:18:50brother has someone to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:18:52Don't you worry.
00:18:54I got this.
00:18:56Well, after you lost the keys to the Maserati, I'm not
00:18:58so sure that you won't lose this new AI tech
00:19:00that we need. I didn't lose the keys to the
00:19:02Maserati, and don't you worry.
00:19:04I've got the codes right here
00:19:06on this drive, and I'm
00:19:08keeping it safe.
00:19:22Glad to hear you're doing that.
00:19:24I have wasted enough time.
00:19:26Now you know
00:19:28exactly where it is.
00:19:30Get it.
00:19:40Alright, where's that drive?
00:19:46Are you kidding?
00:19:48There's nothing in here.
00:19:56Come on.
00:20:02They're coming in.
00:20:04Crap.
00:20:06How about we celebrate your China contract
00:20:08with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:20:10You don't twist my arm.
00:20:12You don't twist my arm.
00:20:14No, no, no.
00:20:20Oh, yeah.
00:20:26Sure. Cheers.
00:20:28Don't you guys have that meeting with China right now?
00:20:32Right. Right. Right.
00:20:34After that.
00:20:44That was close.
00:20:50Hey, girlfriend!
00:20:52Can I ask your advice on something?
00:20:54What's going on?
00:20:56So, I have this friend who is having boy problems.
00:20:58Aren't we all?
00:21:00So, she has a crush on her boss,
00:21:02and she doesn't know what to do about it
00:21:04because of the whole workplace relationship thing.
00:21:06How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:21:08Wait, I don't like Blaine.
00:21:10But he deserves to know, though, right?
00:21:12You're gonna tell him?
00:21:14I mean, I don't know, because what if I tell Kurt I like him
00:21:16and he doesn't like me, and then it's so totally awkward
00:21:18and so he fires me because it's so
00:21:20totally awkward.
00:21:22Do you like Kurt?
00:21:24I gotta go. What?
00:21:26Ring, ring. Oh, I'm getting a call.
00:21:28Ring, ring.
00:21:30Ring, ring.
00:21:32Ring, ring.
00:21:34Ring, ring.
00:21:36Ariel.
00:21:38Yes, Mr. Ellington?
00:21:40I need your personal help.
00:21:42Well, I am your personal assistant.
00:21:52I've never gotten a girl a gift.
00:21:54Wow, really?
00:21:56Um, I mean,
00:21:58yeah, first girlfriend,
00:22:00first gift. Checks out.
00:22:02So, I need your help
00:22:04to figure out which you think
00:22:06a woman would prefer.
00:22:18Oh my God, I'm gonna be wearing that?
00:22:20Sorry?
00:22:22Uh, your girlfriend's gonna be wearing that?
00:22:24Yeah.
00:22:26It's pretty nice, right?
00:22:28Well, I mean, it's option one.
00:22:30Do you think she'll like it?
00:22:32Um,
00:22:34well, what's your girlfriend like?
00:22:36What are her
00:22:38tastes?
00:22:40Um, sophisticated,
00:22:42generous, gorgeous.
00:22:44The whole world slows down
00:22:46whenever she walks into a room.
00:22:48I see.
00:22:50So, keep that in mind.
00:22:52Option two...
00:22:58And that's even more revealing
00:23:00than the first one.
00:23:02Yeah, this is big in Europe.
00:23:04Between you and me,
00:23:06I'm rooting for this guy.
00:23:08I see.
00:23:10Do you have anything more
00:23:12modest?
00:23:14Hmm, modest?
00:23:16Yeah,
00:23:18that seems to be the style
00:23:20I've been seeing these days.
00:23:22With the rich folk,
00:23:24at least.
00:23:26You know, now that you say it,
00:23:28I think I do have something.
00:23:34Aha!
00:23:38What do you think?
00:23:40I think she'd really like that.
00:23:46Ah,
00:23:48can I have a margarita?
00:23:50You can't be serious,
00:23:52darling.
00:23:54She'll have a French 75 with cognac.
00:23:56Flora, what are you doing here?
00:23:58Making sure you look the part.
00:24:00You want to make the money for your
00:24:02dear mother, don't you?
00:24:04Yes, more than anything.
00:24:06Then you need to keep your eyes on the prize.
00:24:08We need to get our hands
00:24:10on that code fast.
00:24:12Once I do, I can fund your mother's surgery,
00:24:14but until then, we're in this together.
00:24:16Yes?
00:24:18Yeah.
00:24:20Excellent.
00:24:22Now, what's your game plan?
00:24:24Make him even more vulnerable
00:24:26and get him to tell me where the code is.
00:24:28And how do you suppose
00:24:30you'll do that?
00:24:32Um,
00:24:34be nice?
00:24:38Your ignorance is both
00:24:40cute and annoying.
00:24:42No.
00:24:44A man like Blaine Ellington
00:24:46is going to become vulnerable from two things.
00:24:48Drinking with him
00:24:50and going
00:24:52to bed with him.
00:24:54Right.
00:24:56I can do that.
00:24:58I hope so, because he's coming
00:25:00this way.
00:25:02Get the code soon,
00:25:04honey.
00:25:06For your mother.
00:25:08Okay.
00:25:10Oh!
00:25:12And darling, have fun.
00:25:16Okay.
00:25:18Valentina.
00:25:22How are you?
00:25:24Wonderful, love.
00:25:26I've been looking forward to this all day.
00:25:28Is that so?
00:25:30Indeed.
00:25:32I was so distracted.
00:25:34It affected my croquet score.
00:25:36Oh, no. Distracted over little old me?
00:25:38I simply must know
00:25:40everything about you.
00:25:42Well, what would you like to know?
00:25:44Everything.
00:25:46Well, I don't know about everything.
00:25:48It might take some time for me to open up.
00:25:50Well,
00:25:52maybe after a few drinks?
00:25:54Only if you can keep up.
00:25:56See, I don't really start talking
00:25:58until after a lot of drinking.
00:26:00Oh, no.
00:26:02Well, here goes nothing.
00:26:08Oh, man.
00:26:12That's really good.
00:26:14Stop.
00:26:16That's funny.
00:26:18Stop.
00:26:24You know, my sister
00:26:26is implying today that I should tell
00:26:28someone where my new AI code is
00:26:30because I forget stuff.
00:26:34Are you forgetful?
00:26:36I mean, yeah.
00:26:38Can you actually believe
00:26:40I lost the keys to a Maserati?
00:26:42What? Really?
00:26:44Yeah. It cost me $10,000
00:26:46just to get them rekeyed.
00:26:48Which is why
00:26:50I should probably
00:26:52tell someone in case
00:26:54I do forget.
00:26:56So maybe I should tell you
00:26:58because you're so awesome
00:27:00and trustworthy?
00:27:02Well, if you'd like, go ahead.
00:27:04I'll tell you.
00:27:06But first...
00:27:10I'm gonna hit the men's room.
00:27:16This is it.
00:27:18All I need to do is ask him where the code is
00:27:20and my mission is over.
00:27:22Nothing can stop me now.
00:27:24Ariel?
00:27:26Except my ex-boyfriend.
00:27:30I don't know what you're talking about, darling.
00:27:32I don't know this...
00:27:34Ariel.
00:27:36No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:38You are definitely Ariel.
00:27:40But what are you doing
00:27:42in a place like this?
00:27:44You're poor.
00:27:46Fine. Please just leave, Max.
00:27:48It's Maximillian now
00:27:50because I'm Max
00:27:52and I make millions.
00:27:54Whatever. Please. I'm begging you.
00:27:56Look at you.
00:27:58You look so much better.
00:28:00You look...
00:28:02What's that word?
00:28:04Rich?
00:28:06Please.
00:28:08I don't know if you've been keeping up with my life lately
00:28:10but I've become very rich.
00:28:12Yes, you've sent me 50 messages about it.
00:28:14I had to block your number.
00:28:16Oh, yeah, that's right.
00:28:18Please, I'll do whatever you want, okay?
00:28:20I just...
00:28:22How about a kiss for old time's sake?
00:28:24You know, Ariel,
00:28:26sometimes I reminisce on our
00:28:28days together.
00:28:30This isn't happening.
00:28:32Do you not remember when we'd go and get taco Tuesday
00:28:34at that Mexican restaurant
00:28:36and eat unlimited discount tacos?
00:28:38How embarrassing.
00:28:40Don't you have a girlfriend?
00:28:42Yes, he does.
00:28:44A situation shipped the best.
00:28:46Let go, Max.
00:28:48Nobody walks away from Maximillian Fletcher.
00:28:50Get off her.
00:28:52Blaine...
00:28:54Ellington?
00:28:56Max Fletcher.
00:28:58Maximillian?
00:29:00What are you doing with that peasant?
00:29:02That's my girlfriend you're talking about.
00:29:04Blaine Ellington.
00:29:06Getting my sloppy seconds.
00:29:08Come here.
00:29:22This isn't over.
00:29:26Come on, Regina.
00:29:32Just stay away from my man, skank.
00:29:34I was actually trying to.
00:29:38Are you okay?
00:29:40Yeah, I think so.
00:29:42We gotta get out of here.
00:29:44This isn't good.
00:29:52Care to explain this?
00:29:54I assume the article
00:29:56does a good job.
00:29:58Getting into a physical altercation
00:30:00in a bar?
00:30:04What are you, a child?
00:30:06I'm not a child.
00:30:08But he started it.
00:30:10I don't care who started it.
00:30:12Ellington is a company
00:30:14based in family values.
00:30:16I was out with my girlfriend
00:30:18trying to uphold those family values.
00:30:20Don't play the girlfriend card.
00:30:22The onus is you on this, pal.
00:30:26Maybe your sister was right.
00:30:28Maybe you're too much of a risk.
00:30:30Even though you say you've settled down.
00:30:32Either way,
00:30:34I just hope all this boils over
00:30:36next time we talk.
00:30:38What would your father think?
00:30:58Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
00:31:00What is that?
00:31:02Some family motto I'm not aware of?
00:31:04It's Shakespeare, you idiot.
00:31:06What are you doing here?
00:31:08You don't want any of this.
00:31:10You don't know what I want.
00:31:12Uh, booze and
00:31:14bimbos? Or does page one
00:31:16of the paper say something different?
00:31:18She's not a bimbo.
00:31:20Then don't treat her
00:31:22like one.
00:31:24Treat her like
00:31:26Dad treated Mom.
00:31:29How do you mean?
00:31:31Bring her completely
00:31:33into your life.
00:31:35Let her know everything about you.
00:31:37I'm trying to.
00:31:39Just last night, we were sharing everything
00:31:41with each other. Okay, share more.
00:31:43Behind most men's success
00:31:45is a strong woman.
00:31:47I will.
00:31:49I'm gonna get close to this woman.
00:31:51You'll see.
00:31:53And you will be like
00:31:55two lovely berries molded onto one stem.
00:31:57Shakespeare.
00:31:59Yeah?
00:32:01Ow.
00:32:11Martina,
00:32:13how are you?
00:32:15How am I?
00:32:17Yeah, how are you?
00:32:19I am annoyed. Time is running out, understand?
00:32:21Mm-hmm.
00:32:23We chose you because we thought you could get the job done.
00:32:25But now I'm not so sure.
00:32:27Wait.
00:32:29Oh, my God.
00:32:31Do you have feelings for him?
00:32:33What? No.
00:32:35I hope not. Because you have four days
00:32:37to get that code,
00:32:39or you can say bye to Mommy.
00:32:41For now. Other than that...
00:32:43I am fine.
00:32:45Thanks for asking.
00:32:55Happy hump day, bestie!
00:32:57It's Tuesday, Hannah.
00:32:59Oh, right.
00:33:01Hey, how's your guy trouble coming?
00:33:03Better.
00:33:05And worse.
00:33:07It sounds super complicated.
00:33:09You have no idea.
00:33:11Can you come in here?
00:33:13I'll be right there.
00:33:15Good thing you've got work to distract you.
00:33:17Good thing.
00:33:19Come on.
00:33:25Oh, you have the file
00:33:27for the new China branch?
00:33:29Yeah.
00:33:37Long night?
00:33:41You know what?
00:33:43Let's forget about the file.
00:33:49Okay.
00:33:55Let's just close our eyes
00:33:57for, um, ten minutes.
00:34:07That's an order.
00:34:09Okay.
00:34:11This is nice.
00:34:13Yeah.
00:34:15This should be like
00:34:17an everyday thing.
00:34:19Mm-hmm.
00:34:23Good morning!
00:34:25Another beautiful day in Ellington.
00:34:27Let's get it! Woo!
00:34:29Oh, Hannah!
00:34:33Well,
00:34:35I guess that's over.
00:34:37Um...
00:34:39Well, everything should be there.
00:34:43I can't even concentrate on work right now.
00:34:45Oh?
00:34:47Why?
00:34:49Well, I don't know if you heard, but...
00:34:53Oh, my.
00:34:55That's, uh, quite a scene.
00:34:57Well, I'm glad you weren't there.
00:34:59I can imagine.
00:35:01Yeah, I just...
00:35:03I hope my girlfriend doesn't think
00:35:05that that's my kind of lifestyle.
00:35:07You should just talk to her
00:35:09and be honest.
00:35:11Yeah.
00:35:13I'm gonna call her.
00:35:15What?
00:35:17Yeah, can you be in the room
00:35:19when I do it?
00:35:21Uh, you want me in the room?
00:35:23Yeah, maybe you could, you know,
00:35:25listen to her voice and read her.
00:35:27Tell me if she sounds...
00:35:29I don't know.
00:35:31Listen to her.
00:35:33Tell me if she sounds upset.
00:35:35Uh...
00:35:37I don't know if I feel comfortable.
00:35:39She makes me so nervous.
00:35:41I'm sure you make her nervous, too.
00:35:43Shit, shit, shit!
00:35:45Uh-oh!
00:35:47Uh-oh!
00:35:49Think, Ariel, think!
00:35:51Uh, I'm gonna be sick.
00:35:53Uh, bathroom!
00:35:55Hello, darling.
00:35:57Hey, Valentina.
00:35:59How are you?
00:36:01Thriving, my dear.
00:36:03How are you feeling?
00:36:05A little banged up,
00:36:07but I've been worse.
00:36:09You should have been with me
00:36:11in my partying days in Ibiza.
00:36:13I was an absolute heathen.
00:36:19Well, I'm glad you're here.
00:36:21You know,
00:36:23well, I'm glad to hear
00:36:25you're feeling all right.
00:36:27Uh, I was worried.
00:36:31No need, darling.
00:36:33I'm actually at the spa right now.
00:36:37Oh, I wanted to know
00:36:39if I'd get to see you again.
00:36:41You will, very soon.
00:36:49Uh, sorry.
00:36:51Can I help you?
00:36:53I couldn't hear you.
00:36:55It kind of sounded like...
00:36:57Sorry, Eduardo is calling me
00:36:59for my hot stone massage.
00:37:01Must be going.
00:37:03Okay, sure.
00:37:05See you.
00:37:07Ta-ta!
00:37:13Community theater.
00:37:15Character.
00:37:17I'm rehearsing.
00:37:19Murder mystery.
00:37:23I'll, uh, send you the dates.
00:37:25I'm not in the theater.
00:37:29That's fair.
00:37:45Mom, I'm home!
00:37:47Hi, honey, how was your day?
00:37:51It was...
00:37:53not boring.
00:37:55How was yours?
00:37:57It was wonderful.
00:37:59I did laundry, watched some soaps.
00:38:03Mom, what are you cooking?
00:38:05I told you I was gonna cook tonight.
00:38:07Well, you weren't home yet,
00:38:09and I wanted to go ahead and get started
00:38:11so your co-worker could have some, too.
00:38:13My co-worker?
00:38:15Yeah.
00:38:21Flora!
00:38:23What are you doing here?
00:38:25I was going to call you about a few work questions,
00:38:27but I was, uh,
00:38:29in the neighborhood
00:38:31and thought I'd drop in.
00:38:33Flora mentioned that you got
00:38:35a job promotion.
00:38:37You didn't say anything about a job promotion.
00:38:39I guess it slipped my mind.
00:38:41Well, you two don't mind me.
00:38:43Go ahead and have your work talk,
00:38:45then I'll be ready soon.
00:38:57What are you doing here?
00:38:59Checking in to see what progress was made last night.
00:39:01I, um...
00:39:03I got close to finding out
00:39:05where he hit the drive, but I...
00:39:07But close doesn't pay the bills, does it?
00:39:09I'll get you the drive soon, I promise.
00:39:11Well, it sounds like the clock is ticking fast.
00:39:15You're not getting attached.
00:39:17What? No, of course not.
00:39:19Good.
00:39:21I was worried you were developing
00:39:23feelings for the man.
00:39:25Dinner's ready.
00:39:27Oh!
00:39:29Deeply sorry, darling.
00:39:31Urgent business. Must be taking off.
00:39:33Oh, um, okay, well,
00:39:35it was nice meeting you.
00:39:37You too, darling.
00:39:43Tick-tock.
00:39:55All right.
00:39:57I need ways to fix my image
00:39:59after that bar scandal.
00:40:01Any ideas?
00:40:03Inner rehab.
00:40:05Too tacky.
00:40:07Go volunteer
00:40:09in a third-world country?
00:40:11Too obvious.
00:40:13Record an apology video for social media
00:40:15and post it there.
00:40:17Too cringe.
00:40:21Adopt an orphan.
00:40:23Now that is something.
00:40:25Ariel, how good are you at raising kids?
00:40:27Um, let's think of other options.
00:40:31What about a charity ball?
00:40:33Yes! That's it!
00:40:35That's the one.
00:40:37I like that. I like it a lot.
00:40:39Isn't she good?
00:40:41Phenomenal.
00:40:43Well, really, we wouldn't be here
00:40:45had I not appointed her as your assistant,
00:40:47so, really, this kind of all comes back to...
00:40:49Got it. Wait.
00:40:51What charity would it be for?
00:40:53How about unknown disorders and illnesses?
00:40:55I'd love that.
00:40:57Let's get it rolling.
00:40:59I'll start right away.
00:41:01You've become an integral part of our company,
00:41:03and I want to have you seated
00:41:05at our VIP table.
00:41:07Oh, my gosh. Thank you. I'm honored.
00:41:09Me, my family,
00:41:11Kurt, my girlfriend, Valentina,
00:41:13and you.
00:41:15Good job, Ariel.
00:41:21Let's see how it looks. Come out.
00:41:27It fits perfectly, darling.
00:41:31Stunning.
00:41:35Next, I'll have to get
00:41:37your dress.
00:41:39A dress?
00:41:41What's the occasion?
00:41:43Well, I'm hosting this charity ball,
00:41:45and I would love
00:41:47for you to be my date.
00:41:49I love a good ball.
00:41:51But I must check my schedule,
00:41:53darling.
00:41:55Is this for that computer thingy
00:41:57you were talking about the other day?
00:41:59No, it's for the iTech.
00:42:01It's going to revolutionize the world.
00:42:03Ah, yes.
00:42:05We got interrupted.
00:42:07You were going to tell me
00:42:09something important.
00:42:11What were you going to say?
00:42:13It's not really that necessary.
00:42:17You don't trust me?
00:42:19I do.
00:42:21This is my first major launch
00:42:23as Ellington CEO,
00:42:25and I just want it to go well.
00:42:27I was special.
00:42:29You are. I just...
00:42:31Well, you know,
00:42:33if you don't trust me...
00:42:35Wait!
00:42:39So you do trust me?
00:42:41Mm-hmm.
00:42:51So Blaine's going to tell me
00:42:53the super
00:42:55special secret.
00:42:57Mm-hmm.
00:42:59Um...
00:43:01Where is it?
00:43:03It's here, in the mansion.
00:43:07It's here?
00:43:13Mm-hmm.
00:43:15Mm-hmm.
00:43:23Where in the mansion?
00:43:25It's...
00:43:31Yeah.
00:43:33Now?
00:43:37Okay.
00:43:39I'll be there.
00:43:45Where are you going, darling?
00:43:49They need me to be on this call with China,
00:43:51so I have to leave.
00:43:53You have to leave right now, darling?
00:43:55Yeah.
00:43:57Now.
00:43:59I'm sorry.
00:44:01We'll pick this back up again soon, huh?
00:44:03Yeah.
00:44:07Martina was right about you.
00:44:09I should start sharing more with you.
00:44:15Okay.
00:44:41Did you get it?
00:44:43The code is in Blaine's mansion.
00:44:45Excellent, darling.
00:44:47Excellent.
00:45:13Max, what are you doing here?
00:45:15What the hell are you doing here, Ariel?
00:45:17Or should I say...
00:45:19Valentina Kingsley?
00:45:21You wouldn't understand.
00:45:23Oh, I understand.
00:45:25You're acting like somebody else
00:45:27to take advantage of your rich boss, hmm?
00:45:29No, I'm not. I...
00:45:31You know I have the responsibility
00:45:33to tell your little hotshot boyfriend
00:45:35who you really are.
00:45:37It's only the right thing to do.
00:45:39Please don't.
00:45:41You don't know what I'm doing.
00:45:43Oh, you'll lose your job?
00:45:45Your reputation?
00:45:47Oh, once word gets out,
00:45:49nobody will want you?
00:45:51What do you want, Max?
00:45:53I just want a little...
00:45:55an arrangement.
00:45:57I'd rather not.
00:45:59Ariel, you really do not want to make me angry.
00:46:03Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:46:05Oh, sweetheart, I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:07I want to destroy you.
00:46:09You have 24 hours
00:46:11to end this charade
00:46:13on your own.
00:46:15If by tomorrow,
00:46:17I see little Valentina Kingsley
00:46:19running around town,
00:46:21I'll do it for you.
00:46:37You seem extra happy today.
00:46:39I feel like Valentina and I,
00:46:41we got on a whole nother level last night.
00:46:43Wow, that's awesome, man.
00:46:45I'm so happy for you.
00:46:47Hi, Mr. Lington.
00:46:49Hi, Kurt.
00:46:51Hi, Anna.
00:46:53Yeah, I feel like she's the one, Kurt.
00:46:55Kurt?
00:46:57Sorry, what were we talking about?
00:47:03Hi, Ariel.
00:47:05Hi, Ariel.
00:47:07Are you all right?
00:47:09Yeah, I'm all right.
00:47:11I actually had an idea
00:47:13about the charity ball.
00:47:15While we keep reaching out
00:47:17to all of these extravagant venues
00:47:19for their availability,
00:47:21I was thinking we could host it ourselves.
00:47:23Where?
00:47:25I was thinking your house.
00:47:31Uh...
00:47:33I don't really like having people
00:47:35over at my house.
00:47:37Well, if we host it ourselves,
00:47:39it seems like a more intimate event.
00:47:41And then we could have it
00:47:43as soon as this weekend.
00:47:45Yeah, that makes sense.
00:47:47Okay.
00:47:49Let's do it.
00:47:51Great. I'll send out the invitations.
00:47:55She really knows this company
00:47:57inside and out.
00:47:59What do you know about Ariel?
00:48:01What do you want to know?
00:48:17Here you go, Mom.
00:48:19I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:48:21I'm just so sleepy.
00:48:23That's okay.
00:48:25We can watch it next weekend.
00:48:27Sweetie, you should be going out
00:48:29on a Saturday night.
00:48:31Mom, you are my friend.
00:48:33People your age,
00:48:35who you can be out dancing with,
00:48:37flirting with boys.
00:48:39I actually
00:48:41kind of have met this one boy.
00:48:43What?
00:48:45What's he like?
00:48:47It's complicated.
00:48:49Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:48:51Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:48:59Oh.
00:49:01Sweetie, I'm fine.
00:49:03I just need some rest.
00:49:25And then after your speech,
00:49:27dance the night away.
00:49:29I'm dreading giving this speech.
00:49:31I guess I'll just picture everyone
00:49:33wearing their underwear and I'll be fine, right?
00:49:35I always thought that was a little pervy,
00:49:37but...
00:49:39I promise,
00:49:41you're going to be amazing.
00:49:43Thank you so much
00:49:45for helping with this.
00:49:47This charity ball idea was genius.
00:49:49I need to make it up to you
00:49:51at some point.
00:49:53I was just doing my job, Mr. Ellington.
00:49:57Well, I should get going.
00:49:59Wait.
00:50:01I should probably call
00:50:03Valentina, right?
00:50:05Make sure the dress fits.
00:50:07I'm sure she'd appreciate that.
00:50:09All right. Good night.
00:50:23Hello, darling.
00:50:25I just wanted to make sure
00:50:27the dress fit.
00:50:29It's perfect.
00:50:31I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:50:33I can't wait either, darling.
00:50:35Good night.
00:50:55Ariel,
00:50:57this place looks amazing.
00:50:59Thanks, Kurt.
00:51:01You're looking sharp.
00:51:03Oh, yeah. Well,
00:51:05got a dress to impress, you know?
00:51:07Are you trying to impress anyone?
00:51:09Nah.
00:51:11Listen,
00:51:13Random, does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:51:17I don't think so.
00:51:19Do you like her?
00:51:21No.
00:51:23No. No.
00:51:25I'm just trying to make
00:51:27friendly conversation.
00:51:29Yeah.
00:51:31We need more balloons in the dining room.
00:51:35Oh.
00:51:37You're still here.
00:51:39Yeah.
00:51:41Listen, if someone
00:51:43were to ask Hannah
00:51:45to dance,
00:51:47what do you think the chances are that she would say
00:51:49yes?
00:51:51Good.
00:51:53Are you going to ask her to dance?
00:51:55No. No. No. No. No.
00:51:57I'm just
00:51:59a fan of wild,
00:52:01hypothetical scenarios.
00:52:03That one just sprung to mind.
00:52:05Okay.
00:52:11Well, I'm
00:52:13gonna go
00:52:15help Blaine
00:52:17practice his speech.
00:52:19I'm going to do that
00:52:21right now. I will see you later.
00:52:23All right. See ya.
00:52:25And you must
00:52:27be Ariel.
00:52:31Yes. Hi.
00:52:35You know, my grandson has spoken
00:52:37very fondly of you.
00:52:39He has? Oh, yes. Yes.
00:52:41In fact, he says that, well, this whole
00:52:43thing was your idea.
00:52:45I suppose so.
00:52:47Wonderful.
00:52:49Kind of reminds me of something
00:52:51Blaine's father would have done
00:52:53if he were in Blaine's situation.
00:52:55Wow. That's such an honor.
00:52:57I heard he was a great man.
00:52:59He was a great man.
00:53:01Martina.
00:53:03Have you had the pleasure
00:53:05of meeting Blaine's assistant, Ariel?
00:53:07Yes, briefly.
00:53:09She's really helped Blaine become quite
00:53:11an impressive CEO.
00:53:13Yes, she has. In fact, I can
00:53:15see her playing a bigger
00:53:17role at Ellington if she keeps it up.
00:53:19Why wait?
00:53:21She could be a part of something huge tonight.
00:53:23Really?
00:53:25I think so. Don't you, Ariel?
00:53:27Uh, uh-huh.
00:53:29Amazing.
00:53:31Well,
00:53:33I can't wait.
00:53:37Me either.
00:53:45Thanks.
00:54:15Ariel.
00:54:17Blaine.
00:54:19There you are.
00:54:21I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:54:23Here I am.
00:54:25Have you seen Valentina?
00:54:27No, I don't think so.
00:54:29About your height, flowy hair,
00:54:31no glasses?
00:54:33Um, no. No, I don't think so.
00:54:35In fact...
00:54:37What?
00:54:39Nothing. It's ridiculous.
00:54:41I better say hi to those guests,
00:54:43but if you could find her for me,
00:54:45that would be great.
00:54:47I'll get right on that.
00:54:49Thank you. Bye.
00:54:57Just go out there and hype Blaine up
00:54:59so he can deliver his speech.
00:55:01Then we're back to finding the drive.
00:55:03Okay.
00:55:05You can do this.
00:55:09Oh, hi, Ariel.
00:55:11Uh,
00:55:13you must be mistaken, love.
00:55:15I don't know this
00:55:17Ariel you speak of.
00:55:19Yeah, okay.
00:55:21Ariel.
00:55:23No, seriously.
00:55:25My name is Valentina Kingsley,
00:55:27and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:55:29Oh, I get it.
00:55:31It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:55:33No, no, no.
00:55:35No game.
00:55:37My name is...
00:55:39Just be yourself.
00:55:41I'm the queen of England.
00:55:45You can really tell it's me?
00:55:47Yeah, but...
00:55:49I mean, I can be very observant.
00:55:51Really?
00:55:53Okay, well, Hannah,
00:55:55it's very important that this stays between us.
00:55:57Okay.
00:55:59Can I ask why?
00:56:01Well, it's really complicated.
00:56:03Um, but you have to promise me
00:56:05you won't tell anybody about this.
00:56:07Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:56:09Yeah, sure.
00:56:11Aw!
00:56:13Well, good luck with
00:56:15whatever this is.
00:56:19Yeah, thanks.
00:56:21I'm gonna need it.
00:56:37Ah, there you are, darling.
00:56:39Valentina.
00:56:41I'm so glad to see you.
00:56:43Look at this place.
00:56:45I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this
00:56:47since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:56:49I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:56:51Of course.
00:56:53You're doing a speech, I see.
00:56:55Oh, I'm not much of a speech giver.
00:56:57They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:56:59You make me feel so confident.
00:57:01I know.
00:57:03I know.
00:57:05You make me feel so confident.
00:57:07I need to be looking at you
00:57:09when I give my speech.
00:57:15Of course.
00:57:17Okay, perfect.
00:57:19Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist
00:57:21outside. I must go speak with her.
00:57:23Uh, Valentina.
00:57:25I was thinking
00:57:27maybe tonight I could show you
00:57:29the AI code.
00:57:31Yes.
00:57:33I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:57:35Great.
00:57:37Where would this be taking place?
00:57:39In the study, or...
00:57:41Upstairs. Hidden in a very
00:57:43high-tech safe.
00:57:45Ah, I see.
00:57:47You actually inspired
00:57:49my security team to
00:57:51create a new hiding space for it.
00:57:53What the heck
00:57:55did I say?
00:57:57I'll give you a hint. If you were to look for it,
00:57:59you'd be staring at the most beautiful
00:58:01thing in the world.
00:58:03I'll let you get back to
00:58:05socializing.
00:58:07Good luck, darling.
00:58:32Excuse me.
00:58:34What are you doing in here?
00:58:40Excuse me.
00:58:42What are you doing in here?
00:58:44Um... And who are you?
00:58:46Oh, um...
00:58:48Uh...
00:58:50Um, I... I, um...
00:58:52You look lost.
00:58:54I am, darling.
00:58:56I am lost.
00:58:58I've been to a lot of mansions,
00:59:00but this one is big.
00:59:02Grandfather.
00:59:04Yes?
00:59:05This is Valentina Kingsley,
00:59:07Blaine's new girlfriend.
00:59:09Oh, yes, yes.
00:59:11From the front page of the Times.
00:59:13Yes, I've heard a lot about you.
00:59:15I hope it was all good things.
00:59:17Well,
00:59:19I haven't seen him smile quite as much
00:59:21as he does now, since his
00:59:23father passed.
00:59:25And I trust that Blaine is
00:59:27treating you
00:59:29respectfully, like a lady.
00:59:31He is.
00:59:33Well, it was a good thing that we were up here to find you.
00:59:35If it had been during Blaine's speech,
00:59:37no one would know
00:59:39you're here.
00:59:41Right.
00:59:43Good thing.
00:59:45Shall we return to the party?
00:59:47Yes, we shall.
00:59:49Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley.
00:59:51You too, sir.
00:59:59You too.
01:00:13You seem quiet.
01:00:15Is everything all right?
01:00:17Everything's fine, darling.
01:00:19Hey, Valentina.
01:00:21I have a girl question
01:00:23for you.
01:00:26Oh my God,
01:00:28for the love of God.
01:00:30You clearly have a crush on Hannah.
01:00:32Just ask her to dance.
01:00:34You just met me, you can already tell?
01:00:36Yes.
01:00:38You read me like a book.
01:00:40I see what Blaine sees in you.
01:00:42You're really inquisitive.
01:00:44In fact, I'll go butter her up for you.
01:00:46Would you?
01:00:48That would be great.
01:00:50Dude.
01:00:52Hannah,
01:00:54I need a favor.
01:00:56Anything.
01:00:58When Blaine is giving his speech,
01:01:00I'm going to step away.
01:01:02If anyone asks, I'm not feeling well.
01:01:04And Ariel is going to help Valentina
01:01:06get some medicine.
01:01:08Got it.
01:01:10Oh, and Kurt's going to ask you to dance.
01:01:12Really?
01:01:14Sorry.
01:01:16When?
01:01:18Tonight.
01:01:20Okay.
01:01:38It's time, brother.
01:01:40You ready?
01:01:42As ready as I'll ever be.
01:01:46Thank you
01:01:48for being here tonight.
01:01:50It means a lot.
01:01:52Of course.
01:01:54You're going to be amazing.
01:02:00Ladies and gentlemen,
01:02:02I want to thank you all so much
01:02:04for coming out here tonight.
01:02:06It is my great honor and privilege
01:02:08to introduce my good friend,
01:02:10your CEO of Ellington Incorporated,
01:02:12Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:02:19Good evening, everyone.
01:02:21I want to,
01:02:23before we get started,
01:02:25thank two people who,
01:02:27without their help,
01:02:29none of this would have happened tonight.
01:02:31My assistant, Ariel,
01:02:33and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:02:37Not sure where they are right now,
01:02:39but I want to thank them
01:02:41for having my back.
01:02:44Hi, Anna.
01:02:46Oh, hi.
01:02:48You haven't seen Valentina around,
01:02:50have you?
01:02:52I wanted to try to find her
01:02:54so she could watch Blaine's speech.
01:02:56Valentina is sick,
01:02:58and Ariel was helping her get medicine.
01:03:00Oh, okay.
01:03:04Um, you look
01:03:06really pretty, by the way.
01:03:08Thanks.
01:03:10You look really pretty, too.
01:03:34All right, time to find this code.
01:03:42Okay.
01:03:56Blaine mentioned something I said?
01:03:58What the heck did I say?
01:04:03Paintings.
01:04:13So,
01:04:15tonight, I'm pledging
01:04:17$10 million
01:04:19to help research cures
01:04:21for illnesses and disorders unknown.
01:04:23Thank you all for coming.
01:04:25I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:04:42Okay.
01:04:53I'm sorry, Mom.
01:04:55I failed you.
01:05:13Bye.
01:05:25I'll give you a hint.
01:05:27If you were to look for it,
01:05:29you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing
01:05:31in the world.
01:05:35He wasn't talking about the painting.
01:05:39He was talking about me.
01:05:42That's what he was talking about.
01:06:12Okay.
01:06:32Okay.
01:06:37Think, Ariel.
01:06:43Think.
01:06:48What could the numbers be?
01:06:50It couldn't be our first date,
01:06:52could it?
01:07:12I've got the code.
01:07:14Excellent, darling.
01:07:16I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:07:18Or you could give it to me now.
01:07:22Flora?
01:07:27What are you doing here?
01:07:29I have a way of being places
01:07:31I'm not supposed to be.
01:07:33Just like you, apparently.
01:07:35I'm not supposed to be here.
01:07:37I'm not supposed to be here.
01:07:39I'm not supposed to be here.
01:07:41Apparently.
01:07:43The code, darling.
01:07:49The future.
01:07:52In the palm of my hand.
01:07:55I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:07:58Blaine's a good man.
01:08:01I feel awful.
01:08:03He's rich, darling. He'll get over it.
01:08:05My mom?
01:08:07And her surgery?
01:08:09I've been accused of many things.
01:08:11But I always keep my word.
01:08:14Now, go and celebrate.
01:08:16You deserve it, darling.
01:08:40Valencina.
01:08:42Hi, darling.
01:08:44There you are.
01:08:46How are you feeling?
01:08:48Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling.
01:08:50Excellent.
01:08:52Care to dance?
01:08:54Certainly.
01:08:56Well, well.
01:08:58Well, well.
01:09:02Look at the happy couple.
01:09:10How did you get in?
01:09:12Oh, I have my ways.
01:09:14We lied about our names on the guest list.
01:09:16Anyway.
01:09:20I just came here to congratulate you
01:09:22on your little events.
01:09:24You need to leave.
01:09:26Actually, I don't think I do.
01:09:28Because I don't think you know
01:09:30who your little girlfriend is.
01:09:32She's Valentina Kingsley.
01:09:34No, no, no.
01:09:36There is no Valentina Kingsley.
01:09:39What?
01:09:41If only your little assistant
01:09:43had assisted you
01:09:45in researching her.
01:09:47You know, it's funny.
01:09:49I haven't actually seen her all night.
01:09:51Blaine, don't listen to him.
01:09:53What is he talking about?
01:09:55Yeah, she may have fooled
01:09:57everyone in here.
01:09:59But an ex-boyfriend
01:10:01never forgets a butt.
01:10:09Ariel?
01:10:23This whole time
01:10:25you've been Valentina?
01:10:27That's right.
01:10:29This whole time
01:10:31you pretended to care about me.
01:10:33But you're not.
01:10:35You're not.
01:10:37But you're just a liar.
01:10:39And worse.
01:10:41She's poor.
01:10:43Why?
01:10:45Yes, Ariel.
01:10:47But why?
01:10:49I'm so sorry.
01:10:51Ariel. Ariel, wait.
01:10:53How embarrassing.
01:10:57You know,
01:10:59I looked into you.
01:11:01You're in so much debt that it's surprising
01:11:03that you can even rent the Lambo
01:11:05that you drove here.
01:11:07How preposterous.
01:11:09If anybody looks into that,
01:11:11it will be a complete waste of time.
01:11:13You're poor?
01:11:15Regina!
01:11:21You're my hero.
01:11:23Thanks.
01:11:25Sometimes I just gotta tell her.
01:11:27You know?
01:11:31Ariel!
01:11:35Ariel!
01:11:41What are you smiling about?
01:11:43I mean, come on.
01:11:45This proves it, right?
01:11:47He's a joke.
01:11:49No, he's your brother, Martina.
01:11:51He's a liability, Richard.
01:11:53And you are giving him the company
01:11:55with the luxury of not having to deal with this shit show
01:11:57because you won't be alive much longer.
01:11:59Oh, well, don't bet on that.
01:12:01You know, you've got a lot of nerve
01:12:03talking to me like this, kid.
01:12:05You've got a lot of nerve
01:12:07letting this ship go down
01:12:09when the lifeboat is right in front of you.
01:12:11I should be running this company.
01:12:13Or
01:12:15is this what success looks like to you?
01:12:21Look, I'm not whore.
01:12:23What is that?
01:12:25I do not want to hear it.
01:12:27You lied to me. Not only did you lie to me,
01:12:29but you embarrassed me in there.
01:12:31Oh, my God.
01:12:37Regina!
01:13:01That was a disaster.
01:13:05I just don't understand.
01:13:07Why would she go through all of that?
01:13:09I don't know.
01:13:11But
01:13:13these scandals are exhausting.
01:13:15Yeah.
01:13:17I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon.
01:13:21Right.
01:13:25I got a lot to think about.
01:13:27What do you mean?
01:13:29I mean
01:13:31we may have to take the company in a complete different direction
01:13:33if we're gonna gain back
01:13:35the public's trust.
01:13:37You can't be serious.
01:13:39No?
01:13:43Something better happen sooner.
01:13:45I guess much worse.
01:13:49Did she want anything from you?
01:13:51I don't know, Martina.
01:13:53Nothing valuable?
01:13:55Martina, I said I don't...
01:13:59No!
01:14:19No!
01:14:29Ariel?
01:14:31Baby?
01:14:33Oh. You look like you had a rough night.
01:14:37It was a disaster, really.
01:14:39I feel awful.
01:14:41Oh.
01:14:43I'm so sorry to hear that, baby.
01:14:45Thanks, Mom.
01:14:47Well, I have something to tell you.
01:14:49Dr. Westfall calls.
01:14:51Are you okay? What's going on?
01:14:53He
01:14:55said
01:14:57a homeless donor sent in the funds
01:14:59for me to have my operation.
01:15:01What?
01:15:03I'm scheduled for surgery on Tuesday.
01:15:05Oh, my God.
01:15:09Mom, I'm so happy.
01:15:11I think this calls
01:15:13for my famous chocolate cake.
01:15:15I agree.
01:15:27Okay.
01:15:49It's time to celebrate.
01:15:51Celebrate.
01:15:55To the future, darling.
01:16:03Drink. You've worked much too hard
01:16:05not to revel in your victory.
01:16:11There it is.
01:16:13Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:16:15People walk in
01:16:17and out of my office
01:16:19with no idea what's in the room with them.
01:16:21Of course,
01:16:23I won't be able to enjoy it too much longer
01:16:25since my programmer
01:16:27is going to pick it up tonight.
01:16:29I guess I just feel bad.
01:16:31To get what you want in life,
01:16:33sometimes you have to do bold things.
01:16:35Break the rules a little.
01:16:39I guess.
01:16:41Ask any CEO
01:16:43and they'll agree, including your little
01:16:45boy toy.
01:16:47I'll never do anything like that.
01:16:49Well, anyway,
01:16:51speaking of money,
01:16:53let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:16:55What?
01:16:57All I need is your wiring info
01:16:59and I can send it on over.
01:17:01I trust that the
01:17:03original estimate hasn't changed?
01:17:05I'm sorry, you haven't
01:17:07paid for the surgery yet?
01:17:09No, that's
01:17:11why we're here, isn't it?
01:17:14Darling?
01:17:40Alright.
01:17:42One more drink and we'll start
01:17:44packing up my things.
01:17:46Deal. One more.
01:17:52Anna.
01:17:54Hi, Mr. Ellington. May I come in?
01:17:56Sure. Come on in.
01:17:58Hi, cutie.
01:18:02Care for a drink?
01:18:04Oh, no. I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:18:06Wait, what was that?
01:18:08Mr. Ellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:18:10From who? Ariel.
01:18:16From who?
01:18:18Ariel.
01:18:20I don't want it. Take it back.
01:18:22She said you might say that,
01:18:24but she said that it was very, very important.
01:18:26How important?
01:18:28I don't know,
01:18:30but she did say that it was
01:18:32something so important that she only
01:18:34trusted me to deliver it, so
01:18:36it must be a big deal.
01:18:40Here.
01:18:50Oh, my God.
01:18:52Oh, my God!
01:18:54Ew! What's happening?
01:18:56What's going on? What does this mean?
01:19:10Oh, Flora.
01:19:12Yes, darling.
01:19:14Your appointment had to leave early.
01:19:16I asked if they wanted her scheduled,
01:19:18but they said no.
01:19:20I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:19:22What was the name?
01:19:26Valentina Kingsley.
01:19:40Woo!
01:19:50You're rich.
01:19:52You'll get over it, darling.
01:19:54You'll get over it, darling.
01:20:10Oh, what's going on?
01:20:12What does this mean?
01:20:18Thank you for everything.
01:20:24Help me with that thing.
01:20:26I would love to.
01:20:34Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:20:40Lane,
01:20:42there's no easy way for me
01:20:44to say this,
01:20:46but it's time.
01:20:54But it's time.
01:21:00To celebrate!
01:21:02Oh!
01:21:06You are going to regret this.
01:21:08I promise you that.
01:21:14Jeez.
01:21:16What did you do?
01:21:18I don't know, girl,
01:21:20but the way she wears that dress,
01:21:22she can step on me any day.
01:21:26See? I knew you could do it.
01:21:28I knew it!
01:21:30You know,
01:21:32your dad would be so proud of you.
01:21:44Dr. Westphal.
01:21:46Oh, hi, Ariel.
01:21:48Is surgery over? How did it go?
01:21:50It was just finished.
01:21:52There were complications.
01:21:54Complications?
01:21:56Yes, but we were able to work through them,
01:21:58and your mother's going to be just fine.
01:22:00Really?
01:22:02Really, yes.
01:22:04In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:22:06She's going to need to rest for a few hours,
01:22:08but when she wakes up,
01:22:10she's going to feel better than she has in a long time.
01:22:12I can't thank you enough.
01:22:14I'm happy to help.
01:22:20I love you.
01:22:22I love you.
01:22:24I love you.
01:22:26I love you.
01:22:28I love you.
01:22:51Come in, come in.
01:22:55Welcome.
01:23:00Ariel?
01:23:02Mom, why didn't you let me out of bed?
01:23:04The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:23:06I know, I know,
01:23:08but I saw this cute guy through the window,
01:23:10and I got kind of excited.
01:23:14Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:23:16No, thank you, but thank you.
01:23:18Oh, thank you.
01:23:20Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:23:22Mom, do you mind
01:23:24giving us some privacy?
01:23:26Oh, of course.
01:23:28I'll just be right over here,
01:23:30don't mind me.
01:23:40I'm so, so sorry.
01:23:42I, uh,
01:23:44I understand
01:23:46why you did it.
01:23:48And you gave me the drive back,
01:23:50so there's no need to apologize.
01:23:52Thank you for
01:23:54everything.
01:23:56I don't even know where to start.
01:24:00I'm not looking
01:24:02for an apology.
01:24:04You're not? No.
01:24:06See, I'm still
01:24:08CEO, and I need an assistant.
01:24:10And you're
01:24:12kind of the best in town.
01:24:16I accept.
01:24:18And, uh,
01:24:20you still looking for a girlfriend?
01:24:24Well,
01:24:26if you're open to it,
01:24:28I'd love to apply.
01:24:42I love you, Valentina.
01:24:44I mean, Ariel.
01:24:46That's gonna
01:24:48take some getting used to.
01:24:50There aren't any
01:24:52starry rooftop views here,
01:24:54but this is my
01:24:56special place.
01:24:58It's even better.
