Short filmTranscript
00:00:00I don't want a nanny. I want a mommy.
00:00:02My daddy has lots of money. All he has to do is marry him and be my mommy.
00:00:07Bella!
00:00:11But she's right about Bella needing a mom.
00:00:13I propose a pretend relationship.
00:00:16Deal the deal.
00:00:17Oh, one other thing.
00:00:19Don't fall for me.
00:00:21Same goes for you.
00:00:23It's your ex-wife.
00:00:25I want my daughter.
00:00:27I'm twice the mother that you'll ever be.
00:00:30No, you're not. Everly is my mommy.
00:00:32So this is what a happy family looks like.
00:00:35I wonder if we could be a real family someday.
00:00:37Just the three of us.
00:00:38Daddy!
00:00:40Watch your back.
00:00:42Everly!
00:00:43What did you do with Bella? Who is this?
00:00:46I know that you could never harm Bella.
00:00:48Not because you're my wife, but because you're a loving heart.
00:00:52Did he really mean that? His wife?
00:01:00The End
00:01:04Bella?
00:01:08Bella!
00:01:09Where did she go?
00:01:10The gardener says Miss Bella's not on the grounds.
00:01:13She's disappeared again.
00:01:15We'll tell the design team to go big or go home.
00:01:18We're not building some quaint bed and breakfast.
00:01:21This is a billion dollar Barlow resort on a private island off Dubai.
00:01:25We need to crush this.
00:01:27Crush!
00:01:28Crush!
00:01:29Crush!
00:01:30Steve, I have to call you back.
00:01:33How did you get in here, Bella?
00:01:36My little escape artist.
00:01:41What am I going to tell Mr. Barlow?
00:01:44False alarm. She's here, everyone.
00:01:49Thank God!
00:01:51I only took my eyes off her for a second.
00:01:53She needs a leash.
00:01:55I'm not a dog.
00:01:57No, a dog behaves better.
00:01:59Daddy!
00:02:00Okay, everyone, let's get back to it.
00:02:02These decorations aren't going to put themselves up.
00:02:04Miss Delilah, I'm sorry.
00:02:06I will be hiring a new nanny soon.
00:02:08Well, how long do you think this is going to last?
00:02:10She's scared off three in a year.
00:02:13I don't want a nanny. I want a mommy.
00:02:27I'm not afraid of you.
00:02:29You see, it's a circus out there, like a literal freaking circus.
00:02:32Oh my God, there's jugglers, there's clowns, there's even a man on stilts.
00:02:35Can you imagine having a birthday like this meeting for just eight years old?
00:02:38Foster kid here, I used to blow out imaginary candles and dream of real cake.
00:02:45This is my favorite part.
00:02:49Somebody's a little too in touch with their inner child.
00:02:52When your mother proposed this blind date, I was a little hesitant.
00:02:56I just couldn't believe that any man could live up to the image that she painted.
00:03:01Yes, she's very good at talking me up.
00:03:04In your case, she really didn't do you justice.
00:03:08I'd love to slip away from the crowd and get to know you better.
00:03:12You're at my eight-year-old's birthday party.
00:03:14I wasn't interested before, but now I want you to leave.
00:03:22Wait for it.
00:03:26Why, hello, Mother.
00:03:27Julian, Bianca is hysterical and you have embarrassed me.
00:03:32Well, stop setting me up with random women.
00:03:34I'm not getting married again. Once was enough.
00:03:36Kendra and the race car driver have ended it.
00:03:39Right now, you have sole custody of Bella.
00:03:42But the courts favor the mother, Julian.
00:03:45You and I both know Kendra could show up at any time and demand that Bella live with her just to spite you.
00:03:52I'm not letting that witch anywhere near my daughter.
00:03:55Find yourself a wife and show the world a stable family.
00:03:59Not for your own happiness, but for your child's.
00:04:07Mother might be dramatic, but she's right about Bella needing a mom.
00:04:11Perhaps a fake wife would do.
00:04:15Got vanilla for you.
00:04:18What's your favorite flavor?
00:04:20Chocolate.
00:04:21So, do you want to know what makes everything taste so good?
00:04:25The secret ingredient is...
00:04:30Love.
00:04:41Girl, I'm so exhausted. I'm heading home. You coming?
00:04:44Let's stay and finish the engagement cake for tomorrow.
00:04:46Okay.
00:04:48Hey, Bernie. Let me grab you the day holds.
00:04:58Tell Rose and Pete I included the pecan cinnamon rolls just for them.
00:05:13Oh, my gosh. You scared me.
00:05:16Where did you come from, sweetheart? Where are your parents?
00:05:19Are you lost?
00:05:22What's your name?
00:05:24I'm Everly.
00:05:26And you don't want to tell me, huh?
00:05:30Guess I'll just have to guess.
00:05:32Your name is Olga.
00:05:36Gertrude.
00:05:37Ew.
00:05:38Prudence.
00:05:39Hazel.
00:05:40Constance.
00:05:41Phyllis.
00:05:42Henrietta?
00:05:45Bertha.
00:05:46It's Bella!
00:05:49The birthday girl. She must have stowed away in the truck.
00:05:52Bella!
00:05:59You scared me, Bella Barlow.
00:06:02Sorry, Daddy.
00:06:04What were you thinking?
00:06:05I found my mommy!
00:06:10I'm so sorry. She's never done anything like this.
00:06:13I want Everly to be my mommy.
00:06:15Bella Munchkin, please.
00:06:18You know, my daddy has lots of money.
00:06:20All you have to do is marry him and be my mommy.
00:06:24Bella, you don't marry someone for money.
00:06:27You do it because you love them so much.
00:06:30And it feels like they're a part of you.
00:06:33Like you can't picture your life without them in it.
00:06:37I know you're supposed to be my mommy.
00:06:41I'm engaged to someone else.
00:06:45Come on, Bella.
00:06:47We've taken up enough of Miss Harper's time.
00:06:57So a hot guy and a cute little girl were like, come be my insta-family?
00:07:01The little girl was. The dad was kind of mortified.
00:07:04Bella reminds me of what I was like after the car accident.
00:07:07I kept going up to perfect strangers looking for my parents.
00:07:10Just couldn't accept that they were gone.
00:07:17Hey, beautiful. I miss you already.
00:07:19When are you back from your business trip?
00:07:21I'm back Monday. We'll see each other then.
00:07:24Are you calling me from the bathroom?
00:07:26No, the guests next door are just really loud.
00:07:30I gotta go. I love you.
00:07:37Hello, Earth to Everly.
00:07:39What?
00:07:40I was just thinking about what I told the little girl.
00:07:42All the reasons you marry someone.
00:07:44But I've never actually felt any of those things.
00:07:47Well, you better decide sooner rather than later.
00:07:49Well, Nolan and I have been together since high school.
00:07:52Loyalty counts for something.
00:07:54At least what we have is real.
00:08:03Okay, this hotel is huge. Where is the engagement party being held?
00:08:07Uh, restaurant.
00:08:09There he is.
00:08:14I'm bored.
00:08:15I'm sorry, Munchkin, but after yesterday I'm not letting you out of my sight.
00:08:19Bella was bad.
00:08:20Bella was very bad.
00:08:22But I'll take you to get ice cream if you're very good.
00:08:27I want cupcake.
00:08:29Nice try, kiddo.
00:08:37Okay.
00:08:51That must be the bride-to-be.
00:08:53Hey, delivery for the lovely bride.
00:08:55Can I just get your signature on this really quick?
00:09:01Oh my gosh.
00:09:03Everly.
00:09:05Well, you haven't changed a bit since high school, huh?
00:09:09Still a pathetic orphan with no money?
00:09:12Or taste?
00:09:14Olivia, this is your engagement party.
00:09:18Who would marry a raging bully like you?
00:09:20Everly, what are you doing here?
00:09:26Nolan, I...
00:09:28I don't understand.
00:09:30Isn't it obvious, you ignorant nobody?
00:09:35Nolan's been cheating on you.
00:09:37With me.
00:09:39Is it?
00:09:45Is it true, Nolan?
00:09:47Leah, I can explain.
00:09:49No, is it true?
00:09:51You've been sleeping with Olivia?
00:09:53You saw how she treated me.
00:09:55She made my high school life a living hell.
00:09:57You hate her just as much as I do.
00:09:59Well, if that's hate sex,
00:10:01then sign me up for a lifetime of it.
00:10:05Nolan's a sexy beast, aren't you, darling?
00:10:09But you wouldn't know about that, Everly.
00:10:11Being the pity fuck that you are.
00:10:13You set this whole thing up, didn't you, Olivia?
00:10:17Did you think you could date both of us?
00:10:19Marry both of us?
00:10:21No.
00:10:23Nolan, you have to choose.
00:10:25You can be with me and live the good life.
00:10:28You can be with me and live the good life.
00:10:30Or,
00:10:32you can be with this dirty orphan.
00:10:34Who will always be poor.
00:10:36Pathetic white trash.
00:10:38Her entire life.
00:10:40And who will drag you down with her.
00:10:46I'm sorry.
00:10:48I'm sorry, Everly.
00:10:50I just, I can't be poor.
00:10:52I can't.
00:10:54I'm so sorry.
00:10:58I'm so sorry.
00:11:04This isn't happening.
00:11:06I'm in some kind of post-high school nightmare
00:11:08where the mean girl still wins.
00:11:14I don't like her.
00:11:16She's mean.
00:11:18Hello, where did you come from?
00:11:20Is she an evil witch?
00:11:22You little shit.
00:11:24Who the hell let this wretched brat in here?
00:11:26Talk to her like that.
00:11:28I can say whatever the hell
00:11:30I want.
00:11:32And both of you, get out.
00:11:34And take this disgusting pig with you.
00:11:36It's garbage.
00:11:38Just like you.
00:11:42What are you, crazy? You could have hurt her.
00:11:44Too bad I missed.
00:11:50Get off me.
00:11:53Get off.
00:11:55Choke on it, bitch.
00:12:01I'm gonna destroy you.
00:12:03Good luck with that.
00:12:05You already tried in high school, but I'm stronger now.
00:12:07Keep going with my blessing.
00:12:09Nolan, do something.
00:12:13Everly?
00:12:15Pick it up.
00:12:17Hey.
00:12:21Touch my kid and you're dead.
00:12:23Who the hell are you?
00:12:25I'm with her.
00:12:27Since when?
00:12:29That's none of your business.
00:12:31Ooh, hold still.
00:12:33There's some frost in there.
00:12:35David, just stop.
00:12:37Don't.
00:12:39It's Julian Barlow,
00:12:41heir of Barlow Hotels and Resorts.
00:12:43He owns this very hotel.
00:12:46You're lucky I don't sue you both for attempting to assault a minor.
00:12:48I didn't know it was your kid.
00:12:50So she's a poor girl? Hurting her is okay?
00:12:52This party's over.
00:12:54You two are banned for life from every Barlow property in the world.
00:12:58So this is what having someone
00:13:00stand up for you feels like.
00:13:06They were bad, Daddy.
00:13:08There's a lot of bad people out there.
00:13:10That's why you can't run off the way you did.
00:13:12But I thought I'd really want to be with her.
00:13:16You need some rest.
00:13:18Go to the car.
00:13:20I love you, Edwin.
00:13:26Thank you for protecting my daughter.
00:13:28Thank you for saving me
00:13:30from my cheating ex-fiancé.
00:13:36That sounds like a desperate man
00:13:38trying to win you back.
00:13:40Yeah.
00:13:42Not happening.
00:13:46Seems we have a problem, Miss Harper.
00:13:50My daughter's heart is set on you being her mother.
00:13:56You also have a problem with your ex
00:13:58not getting the message.
00:14:00I propose
00:14:02a pretend relationship.
00:14:04Like a fake marriage?
00:14:06Exactly. I can protect you from your ex-fiancé
00:14:08and you can help me protect Bella
00:14:10from herself and my ex
00:14:12if she comes back into town.
00:14:14Is your ex really that bad?
00:14:16Kendra makes your high school nemesis
00:14:18look like a teddy bear.
00:14:20Do we have a deal?
00:14:22What if you want to be with someone for real?
00:14:24I won't.
00:14:26I've sworn I'm not gonna get married again.
00:14:36Yes, Mr. Barlow.
00:14:38You have a deal.
00:14:44Tomorrow night is the annual
00:14:46Charity Gala.
00:14:48Black tie.
00:14:50There we'll introduce you to society.
00:14:52Why don't we start out slow?
00:14:54My mother will know
00:14:56if we don't show up as newlyweds.
00:14:58Didn't you say she lives in Paris?
00:15:00She has spies everywhere.
00:15:02Did she go to the gala with me?
00:15:04I don't know, Julian.
00:15:06I don't know.
00:15:08I don't know.
00:15:10I don't know.
00:15:13I don't know, Julian.
00:15:15I'm more flower than flair.
00:15:19We have a boutique at the hotel.
00:15:21I think the right dress
00:15:23will ease some of your stress.
00:15:25I'm still super
00:15:27uncomfortable with all this.
00:15:29I don't want to embarrass you
00:15:31at the gala.
00:15:33Are you always going to be this touchy about my money?
00:15:35Most women can't wait to spend it.
00:15:37I'm a baker, not a socialite.
00:15:39You've been
00:15:41hanging out with the wrong crowd.
00:15:45Maybe I have.
00:15:47Do you mind?
00:15:49My mother will want a picture of the newlyweds.
00:16:01One other thing.
00:16:03Don't fall for me.
00:16:07Same goes for you.
00:16:11Boop.
00:16:13Boop.
00:16:15Well, hello, Mother.
00:16:17You're married?
00:16:19Who is this girl?
00:16:21Her name is Everly Harper.
00:16:23She's a sous-chef,
00:16:25cordon bleu trained,
00:16:27but she calls herself a baker.
00:16:29Ridiculous.
00:16:31Well, her parents died
00:16:33when she was six,
00:16:35and since then,
00:16:37she's had no relatives.
00:16:40She became a ward of the state
00:16:42and bounced around foster care,
00:16:44never really having a permanent home.
00:16:46So she's an orphan
00:16:48without social connections.
00:16:50What are her financials?
00:16:52Well, she has some student loan debt
00:16:54and her business is barely making it.
00:16:56Despite that,
00:16:58she's won numerous awards
00:17:00and competitions for her.
00:17:02Oh, my God!
00:17:04She's dirt poor!
00:17:06You've married a gold digger, Julian.
00:17:08Well, to be honest,
00:17:10my wealth is probably a bad thing in this case.
00:17:12She'd rather me be middle class.
00:17:14Well, then she's a fool.
00:17:16Who wouldn't want a billionaire husband?
00:17:18Well, Bella chose Sarah
00:17:20to be her mother.
00:17:24Well, I'm just upset that my only son
00:17:26didn't inform me he was married.
00:17:28We'll be in touch.
00:17:34Well, that went exactly as expected.
00:17:37Everybody's going to be my new mommy!
00:17:39I should start calling you my little spy.
00:17:41When does she move in?
00:17:43Um, I'm not sure.
00:17:45We haven't had that discussion.
00:17:47And she's going to bake me more
00:17:49magical cookies filled with love.
00:17:51Has she done that before?
00:17:53Well, yes.
00:17:55Soon she'll be here and she'll bake you
00:17:57many things full of love.
00:17:59Whee! Whee!
00:18:07Wait, you fake Marion, Julian, Barlow?
00:18:09I know, it's insane.
00:18:11Oh my god, you do know
00:18:13that your hubby is worth like a hundred billion dollars, right?
00:18:15Very funny.
00:18:17He did?
00:18:19I'm not joking.
00:18:21Whoa, I've never seen that many zeros
00:18:23in one spot.
00:18:25Oh my god, bestie!
00:18:27You're literally married to one of the richest dudes on the planet.
00:18:29Olivia and her totes are totally
00:18:31going to flip out. We have to go to the high school reunion
00:18:33next weekend. I thought you said we were skipping that.
00:18:35Uh-uh, uh-uh, not anymore.
00:18:37We are going.
00:18:39Oh, come on, please, please, please.
00:18:41Think about it.
00:18:43Whee!
00:18:45Why would someone like him even want a pretend marriage?
00:18:47I mean, he's charming,
00:18:49handsome,
00:18:51brilliant, and a good dad.
00:18:53Like, he could easily find a real wife.
00:18:55Maybe he's just avoiding commitment.
00:18:57You know, classic playboy move.
00:18:59He doesn't strike me as that type.
00:19:01Look at you, playing the little protective wife
00:19:04already. Shut up.
00:19:06So, when does
00:19:08Miss Barlow make her big debut?
00:19:10Tonight, actually.
00:19:12Care to help me find a dress
00:19:14for some exclusive gala?
00:19:16Oh my god, oh my god, oh my god.
00:19:18This is the most exclusive credit card of all credit cards.
00:19:20You can buy an island with this thing.
00:19:22I'm going to be sick.
00:19:24I have to find a way to give it back to him.
00:19:26Everly Harper, you will do
00:19:28no such thing. Can you please
00:19:30just be a little selfish for the both of us
00:19:32and live a little?
00:19:34You're right.
00:19:36Let's do this.
00:19:38Yay!
00:19:50Okay, I can't do this. $40,000 for a dress
00:19:52is insane. You could feed an entire village
00:19:54for that price. Yeah, crazy
00:19:56world we live in. Hello, ladies.
00:19:58My name is Pilar.
00:20:00Should we try something on?
00:20:02It appears to be your size, but I do have a seamstress
00:20:04on standby. Can I maybe
00:20:06rent it instead? Rent?
00:20:10That'll be $1,000 a day
00:20:12plus a $4,000 security deposit.
00:20:14Can you afford that?
00:20:18Oh my goodness, what manual
00:20:20labor job do you do? I'm a baker.
00:20:24Absolutely no rental for you.
00:20:26Those rough worker hands will
00:20:28snag the delicate fabric.
00:20:30There's a thrift store down the way
00:20:32that might be more at your speed.
00:20:34You don't understand. I'm attending the annual Celestial
00:20:36charity gala tonight. It's strictly black tie.
00:20:38Then what are you doing at Celestial?
00:20:40The most exclusive event in town.
00:20:42I know.
00:20:44You must be a waitress handing out caravans.
00:20:46Just buy it then.
00:20:52This is a black heart.
00:20:54Obviously.
00:20:56Held up at boutique.
00:20:58Not going too well.
00:21:02Well, well, well.
00:21:04This card belongs to Mr. Barlow.
00:21:06How did it end up in your hands?
00:21:08Mr. Barlow happens
00:21:10to be my best friend's husband.
00:21:12As if.
00:21:14You must have stolen it.
00:21:16Security, arrest these scammers.
00:21:18What?
00:21:20Get your hands off of her,
00:21:22you animal.
00:21:24Let us...
00:21:28We're not thieves.
00:21:30You're making a mistake.
00:21:32The card was given to me. We're innocent.
00:21:38Get this trash out of my face.
00:21:42Let them go.
00:21:50Mr. Barlow, you're right on time.
00:21:52Okay, I just caught these scammers
00:21:54trying to charge $5,000 to your car.
00:21:56$5,000? When have you ever sold a dress
00:21:58under 30 grand?
00:22:00That was me.
00:22:02I was trying to rent it and said,
00:22:04no dress is worth that much.
00:22:06Are you kidding me?
00:22:08Don't fall for this innocent act.
00:22:10She's a clever scammer.
00:22:12Do you see anything you like?
00:22:14This one.
00:22:16But we were told to shop at the thrift shop.
00:22:18I'm Samantha, by the way.
00:22:20Clara, my wife was looking to outfit
00:22:22herself for tonight's gala
00:22:24entirely through your boutique.
00:22:26Unfortunately, you cut up
00:22:28our card.
00:22:30So she...
00:22:32She really is
00:22:34your...
00:22:36wife?
00:22:38At Barlow, we believe in treating everyone
00:22:40with respect and dignity.
00:22:42Isn't your lease up in 30 days?
00:22:44Mr. Barlow, I am
00:22:46so, so sorry.
00:22:48Please, um, here.
00:22:50Take the dress. It's on the house.
00:22:52It's not necessary. Just bill my account.
00:22:56And Barlow won't renew
00:22:58your lease. Not here.
00:23:00Not anywhere.
00:23:02You're done, Velar.
00:23:04I'll make sure you never work in retail again.
00:23:18I realize right now
00:23:20this is the first time
00:23:22I'm seeing the real Evelyn.
00:23:24You've been hiding in plain sight.
00:23:26You know what, look over here.
00:23:28Mr. Barlow for the night?
00:23:30What's her name, man?
00:23:32I got you.
00:23:34What's her name?
00:23:36I feel like
00:23:38I don't fit in here.
00:23:40You don't fit in, Evelyn.
00:23:42You stand out.
00:23:44Don't be so obvious, Everly.
00:23:46You can't let yourself fall for him.
00:23:48It's true. Everyone here is rich.
00:23:50But they're all human.
00:23:52You're not.
00:23:54You're not.
00:23:56You're not.
00:23:58You're not.
00:24:00You're not.
00:24:02You're not.
00:24:04You're not.
00:24:06You're not.
00:24:08You're not.
00:24:10You're not.
00:24:12You're not.
00:24:14You're not.
00:24:16You're not.
00:24:18You're not.
00:24:20You're not.
00:24:22You're not.
00:24:24You're not.
00:24:26You're not.
00:24:28You're not.
00:24:30You're not.
00:24:32You're not.
00:24:34You're not.
00:24:36You're not.
00:24:38You're not.
00:24:40You're not.
00:24:42You're not.
00:24:44You're not.
00:24:46You're not.
00:24:48You're not.
00:24:50You're not.
00:24:52You're not.
00:24:54You're not.
00:24:56You're not.
00:24:58You're not.
00:25:00You're not.
00:25:02You're not.
00:25:04You're not.
00:25:06You're not.
00:25:08You're not.
00:25:10You're not.
00:25:12You're not.
00:25:14You're not.
00:25:16You're not.
00:25:18You're not.
00:25:20You're not.
00:25:22You're not.
00:25:24You're not.
00:25:26You're not.
00:25:28Meddling mother.
00:25:32Aren't you going to say anything?
00:25:34Meddling mother.
00:25:36I couldn't have put it better myself.
00:25:40I don't know what you did to trick my son into marriage.
00:25:42But I have my eye on you,
00:25:44Everly Harper.
00:25:46One false move, and you are through.
00:25:48Alright, that's enough.
00:25:50Enjoy your evening alone,
00:25:52mother.
00:25:58Everly, I want to apologize.
00:26:00My mother was out of line.
00:26:02She didn't expect it either.
00:26:04She's so determined, she won't back down.
00:26:06We need to make sure she doesn't start digging
00:26:08into the details of our marriage.
00:26:10So, what's our next steps?
00:26:12I want you to move in with me.
00:26:18It was going to happen sooner or later.
00:26:20Mother just expedited it.
00:26:22I'm sorry.
00:26:24I'm sorry.
00:26:26Mother just expedited it.
00:26:28That goes to the kitchen.
00:26:32Living room.
00:26:34It's just all moving a little too fast.
00:26:36I mean, one minute, Julian's asking me
00:26:38to move in with him, and the next,
00:26:40movers are packing my stuff.
00:26:42But you gotta love a man that takes action, you know?
00:26:44You are oddly chipper about all this.
00:26:46I mean, here I was, feeling bad about leaving you to find a new roommate.
00:26:48I don't know. I think I'm going to try living alone for a while.
00:26:50Samantha, how can you afford that?
00:26:52The new landlord lowered everyone's rent.
00:26:54Since when?
00:26:56Since you became his fake bride.
00:26:58He knew that you felt bad for me,
00:27:00and so he bought the entire apartment complex
00:27:02and lowered everyone's rent.
00:27:04That's...
00:27:06That's...
00:27:08Insane!
00:27:10Everly, billionaires don't think like normal people, sweetie.
00:27:12This is your life now.
00:27:14You need to get used to it, okay?
00:27:20Are we going to have gazpacho
00:27:22for dinner?
00:27:24If it pleases Miss Bella to have gazpacho.
00:27:26Hello!
00:27:28Okay, what can I get you today?
00:27:32You're welcome.
00:27:38Shouldn't take me longer than two days
00:27:40to inspect the site in Indonesia.
00:27:42Are you sure you can watch Bella?
00:27:44I haven't hired a nanny yet,
00:27:46and she tires Miss Delaney out.
00:27:48Don't worry about us. You focus on work.
00:27:50Bella and I will be just fine.
00:27:52I'll take you to the bakery with me, so have a blast.
00:27:54Here's a detailed list of her routines,
00:27:56do's and don'ts,
00:27:58allergies, emergency contact information,
00:28:00all the information you'll ever need.
00:28:02Love soccer,
00:28:04allergic to strawberries,
00:28:06doctor's number. I'm impressed.
00:28:08I wouldn't have thought a CEO like you
00:28:10would be this hands-on with this kid.
00:28:12Well, you thought wrong.
00:28:14Bella means the world to me.
00:28:20Daddy,
00:28:22why are you staring at Emily like that?
00:28:24You like her.
00:28:26Sorry, she doesn't know
00:28:28what she's talking about.
00:28:30Sometimes kids have a way of knowing the truth.
00:28:32They also have a way of being annoying.
00:28:34Well, anyways,
00:28:36me and Bun Bun wanted to play airplane.
00:28:38All right, Munchkin,
00:28:40you have one minute.
00:28:42Yippee!
00:28:44Ready?
00:28:46Yeah!
00:28:48Ready?
00:28:50Yeah!
00:28:54So this is what a happy family
00:28:56looks like.
00:28:58It looks so nice.
00:29:00I wonder if we could be a real family someday.
00:29:02Just the three of us.
00:29:08Okay, chef, what's on the menu today?
00:29:10Um, chocolate cupcakes,
00:29:12and chocolate donuts,
00:29:14and chocolate cake,
00:29:16and chocolate chip cookies.
00:29:18I'm sensing a chocolate theme.
00:29:20Okay, it's time to get to work, chef.
00:29:22Whoopee, chef!
00:29:28Ta-da!
00:29:30What do you think, chef?
00:29:34I can taste the love.
00:29:36The what?
00:29:38The magic ingredient. I can taste it.
00:29:40That's good.
00:29:42Everyone?
00:29:44Do you like my dad?
00:29:46Of course I like him.
00:29:48He's a great guy
00:29:50and a good dad.
00:29:52So you could become my mommy for real?
00:29:54Bella,
00:29:56I don't know what the future holds,
00:29:58but I know you have
00:30:00a very special place in my heart, okay?
00:30:02Okay.
00:30:06Whoa.
00:30:08That was fast.
00:30:10Okay.
00:30:12Time for a rest.
00:30:16Daddy!
00:30:24Oh, my God.
00:30:26I'm falling for him.
00:30:30Daddy!
00:30:32Did you miss me, Munchkin?
00:30:34So much, but I really surprised.
00:30:36I got to be a chef.
00:30:38I had a movie marathon.
00:30:40And I got to sleep in sheep tents in the living room.
00:30:42And we ate in the kitchen
00:30:44with Mrs. Delaney,
00:30:46who was all frowny, but then she was all smiley.
00:30:48I like the kitchen better than the dining room.
00:30:50Can we eat there from now on?
00:30:52I see you've made some changes.
00:30:54Very minor ones.
00:30:56Oops, did I say something bad?
00:30:58No, Munchkin. Daddy's just learning
00:31:00his little set in his ways.
00:31:02You can do everything, Dad, but you're a bad cook.
00:31:04And I really is way better at girl stuff.
00:31:06You're like the prince, and I really is the princess.
00:31:08And we can all live happily ever after.
00:31:10With Bun Bun, of course.
00:31:16Kids and their fairy tales.
00:31:18She'll understand
00:31:20that we can't be more than a pretend couple
00:31:22when she's older.
00:31:24Of course. She's still too little.
00:31:26We can't be more than a pretend couple.
00:31:28Right. It felt so real.
00:31:30I let myself forget it was a fake marriage.
00:31:32It can never be anything more.
00:31:36Oh, my God.
00:31:38You have to go.
00:31:40Oh, come on.
00:31:42Olivia and Nolan are going to gossip about us
00:31:44if you do not show your face tomorrow.
00:31:46They're going to do that regardless.
00:31:48I'm sorry, Sammy. I thought about it,
00:31:50and I don't want to go to our high school reunion.
00:31:52Okay, hear me out. Just picture this.
00:31:54You walk in with your new, hot, billionaire husband.
00:31:56It's the perfect revenge for the mean girls
00:31:58that used to call us poor losers.
00:32:00No, I would never use Julian in that way.
00:32:02Well, if this thing ends,
00:32:04I already told them that you would be there with them.
00:32:06Shh.
00:32:08Don't get upset. Don't get upset.
00:32:10It's just that Olivia posted that we were lying skinks,
00:32:12and then I kind of just blew it from there,
00:32:14and then all of a sudden...
00:32:16And Samantha, you make everything ten times worse.
00:32:18Don't worry. I'll go with you.
00:32:20I can't let my wife be humiliated.
00:32:22I came by to take you to dinner
00:32:24as a thank you for helping me with Bella.
00:32:26Did he really mean that?
00:32:28His wife?
00:32:30You should take the day off tomorrow
00:32:32and prepare yourself.
00:32:34I'll make the arrangements with the hotel spa.
00:32:36On one condition.
00:32:38Can you make the reservation for two?
00:32:40I can do that.
00:32:48I want to get my nails done, too.
00:32:50What color do you want to get, Bella?
00:32:52The exact same as you.
00:32:54I also want to get some for FunBun.
00:32:56He looks great with those.
00:32:58You're so adorable.
00:33:00I wish I could never abandon you.
00:33:02I wish you were really mine.
00:33:08Oh, my.
00:33:10Mr. Barlow said that you might need
00:33:12some help getting into it.
00:33:14I can't wear that, Miss Delaney.
00:33:16It's too beautiful
00:33:18and definitely way too expensive.
00:33:20Nonsense, dear.
00:33:22Mr. Barlow said to tell you
00:33:24you're the only one that can do it justice.
00:33:26Now let's see it all yet.
00:33:36I want to thank you for the dress.
00:33:38I'll find a way to pay you back.
00:33:40Seeing you in it is payment enough.
00:33:42You are drop-dead gorgeous, Everly.
00:33:44It's not me.
00:33:46It's the dress.
00:33:48Why do you do that?
00:33:50Why do you downplay your beauty?
00:33:52I don't like to draw attention to myself.
00:33:54You shouldn't have to dim your light
00:33:56to make others feel good about themselves.
00:34:12Mr. Barlow, sir,
00:34:14there is a visitor here
00:34:16demanding to speak with you.
00:34:18I'm not expecting anyone.
00:34:20It's your ex-wife.
00:34:24It's your ex-wife.
00:34:32I put Miss Rossi in the guest room.
00:34:34Where's Bella?
00:34:36She's with Miss Delaney in the playroom.
00:34:38Good. We need to keep Bella away from Kendra.
00:34:40I have to deal with her.
00:34:42I'll join you at the reunion when I'm done.
00:34:44I can just not go.
00:34:46No. Kendra is not going to disrupt our plans.
00:34:48My driver will take you there.
00:34:50I promise.
00:34:54It's been so long, Julian.
00:34:56Not long enough. What do you want?
00:34:58I want my daughter.
00:35:00I want Bella.
00:35:08I heard Everly
00:35:10is coming to the reunion.
00:35:12I thought that she would never show her face here
00:35:14ever again.
00:35:16Everly? The foster kid weirdo?
00:35:18Yeah, well, she destroyed my engagement party,
00:35:20so I'm going to destroy her tonight.
00:35:22Didn't Samantha say
00:35:24she's married to Julian Barlow?
00:35:26What if he's going to come with her?
00:35:28He might fuck her,
00:35:30but a Barlow is not going to marry trash like her.
00:35:32Give me that.
00:35:48She should be mine.
00:35:52Eyes on me, Nolan.
00:35:54They really did recreate senior prom.
00:35:56Yep, all the ways,
00:35:58the tacky decorations, and the cheesy DJ.
00:36:00Last time I was here, I was with Nolan.
00:36:02My foster mom at the time
00:36:04helped make my dress, and it looked it.
00:36:06We didn't even get our first dance
00:36:08before Olivia told everyone I had an STD.
00:36:10That's right.
00:36:12And then Nolan couldn't take it, and he bailed?
00:36:14We should have known then that he was a dick.
00:36:16Yeah, I forgave him.
00:36:18No one gets to take it.
00:36:20Let's play this bitch.
00:36:22I mean the dance, of course.
00:36:24That dress looks like it cost a fortune.
00:36:26What do you think, Olivia?
00:36:28You're a fashion expert.
00:36:30It can't be the nightingale of Hanoi.
00:36:32That dress is worth millions.
00:36:34It's just a cheap knockoff.
00:36:36Come on, girls.
00:36:38Let's give Everly a high school reunion.
00:36:40She'll never forget.
00:36:50Let's give Everly a high school reunion.
00:36:52She'll never forget.
00:36:54Hey.
00:36:56Where's your husband?
00:36:58Julian's on his way.
00:37:00Shut up, loser. No one's talking to you.
00:37:02Bitch.
00:37:04Give it up, Everly.
00:37:06We all know he got bored and dumped you.
00:37:08Like, okay.
00:37:10Did you just fucking shrug at me?
00:37:14Apparently you've forgotten your place.
00:37:16Must be that dress giving you attitude,
00:37:18but it's a cheap knockoff, just like you.
00:37:20I don't think it's a knockoff.
00:37:22It's a gift from my husband.
00:37:24Give it up, bitch.
00:37:26We all know you're lying,
00:37:28your husband, your dress.
00:37:30I call bullshit.
00:37:32Grow up, Olivia.
00:37:34You're too old to still be a mean girl.
00:37:36Hey, no, no, no.
00:37:38Let go of me, Nolan.
00:37:40Get your hands off of her.
00:37:42Just because you're fucking a Barlow
00:37:44doesn't make you royalty.
00:37:46Take that fake dress off,
00:37:48or I'll take it off for you.
00:37:50What makes you think it's fake?
00:37:52You clueless bitch.
00:37:54I'm a fashion influencer
00:37:56with 1.8 million followers.
00:37:58I'm a fashion influencer
00:38:00with 1.8 million followers.
00:38:02I'm a fashion influencer
00:38:04with 1.8 million followers.
00:38:06You expect me to believe
00:38:08that white trash like you
00:38:10are wearing the nightingale
00:38:12of Hanoi gown,
00:38:14valued at $10 million.
00:38:16That's why Julian grinned
00:38:18when I said I'd pay him back
00:38:20for the dress.
00:38:22Take it off.
00:38:28Hey, no.
00:38:30Get off of her.
00:38:34Let go.
00:38:36No.
00:38:38No.
00:38:40Emily.
00:38:44Stop.
00:38:46Get away from my wife.
00:38:50Get away from my wife.
00:39:04I'm sorry I'm late.
00:39:06The dress is ruined.
00:39:08Please tell me it wasn't worth millions of dollars.
00:39:10I can't tell you that.
00:39:12Apologize to my wife, now.
00:39:14We were just joking.
00:39:16You know, fooling around.
00:39:18My wife was on the ground, soaking wet.
00:39:20Dressed torn.
00:39:22What you did was battery and harassment.
00:39:24My lawyer's not gonna think that's funny.
00:39:26I sure as hell don't.
00:39:28Lawyers?
00:39:30Who the hell are you?
00:39:32Oh, he's one of the richest men in the world.
00:39:34Do you know how much this dress is worth?
00:39:36Every bead is a
00:39:38genuine, flawless diamond.
00:39:40Miss St. James, you just ruined a $10 million
00:39:42gown.
00:39:44Oh, shit.
00:39:46No.
00:39:48No, that can't be.
00:39:50You better start liquidating all your assets,
00:39:52including your parents' house,
00:39:54because the insurance company is coming for your ass.
00:39:56Then the police.
00:39:58Good luck finding a job in fashion
00:40:00and the finest dresses in the world.
00:40:02That's all your endorsements
00:40:04leaving you.
00:40:06That's all your
00:40:08endorsements leaving you.
00:40:10You did this.
00:40:12You set me up.
00:40:14You did it to yourself.
00:40:16Nolan, do something.
00:40:18I left the woman I love because you said we'd be rich
00:40:20and now you have nothing.
00:40:22You piece of shit.
00:40:24Nope.
00:40:26Don't do this.
00:40:28Please don't do this.
00:40:30I'm not the one you need to beg for forgiveness.
00:40:38I'm sorry, Everly.
00:40:40I never should have
00:40:42tormented you all of those years.
00:40:44You didn't deserve it.
00:40:46Then why did you do it?
00:40:48Why me?
00:40:52Why me?
00:40:54Because even with your shitty clothes,
00:40:56your terrible hair,
00:40:58you were still beautiful.
00:41:00Everyone could see it.
00:41:02I would kill to look like you
00:41:04and you treated it like it was nothing.
00:41:06So you hated me
00:41:08because I was pretty and didn't
00:41:10shove it in people's faces?
00:41:12That is so messed up.
00:41:14Well, I was right to hate you.
00:41:16Look at you.
00:41:18You bagged a billionaire
00:41:20without even trying.
00:41:22Everly is beautiful inside and out.
00:41:24That's what draws people to her.
00:41:26You're done here.
00:41:28I'm not going to push any criminal charges,
00:41:30but the insurance company will be reaching out.
00:41:32You're on the hook for that dress.
00:41:34Oh my god, I never thought that I'd see this
00:41:36in a lifetime.
00:41:38Please pinch me and tell me that I'm not dreaming.
00:41:40If you are, so am I.
00:41:42You want to get out of here?
00:41:44Yes, please.
00:41:54Bitches.
00:41:56Who knew that high school reunions
00:41:58would be this fun?
00:42:04Thank you for what you did.
00:42:06I've never had anyone
00:42:08come to my rescue before.
00:42:10I enjoy doing it.
00:42:12You matter to me, Everly.
00:42:14Me and Bella.
00:42:16Hey,
00:42:18I understand.
00:42:22I understand.
00:42:24Thank you again.
00:42:26Have a good night, Julian.
00:42:28Everly, wait.
00:42:30That came out wrong.
00:42:32What I meant was
00:42:34I have feelings for you.
00:42:36And I don't want to lead you on.
00:42:38Kendra's betrayal of our marriage
00:42:40broke something inside of me
00:42:42and I don't think I can commit
00:42:44to another woman.
00:42:46I just want to be with you.
00:42:48I'm not asking for anything else.
00:42:50You're so amazing, Julian.
00:42:52And I like everything about you.
00:42:54You just...
00:43:12Sir, is that you?
00:43:14I heard a noise.
00:43:16Yes, Mr. Gibson.
00:43:18You can go to bed.
00:43:20Yes, sir. Good night, sir.
00:43:22Ma'am.
00:43:24That was embarrassing.
00:43:26I haven't got caught like that since I was a little school boy.
00:43:28Do you think he saw us?
00:43:30He probably did, but
00:43:32he's not going to say anything.
00:43:34I want nothing more
00:43:36than to take you upstairs right now.
00:43:38Me too.
00:43:40You're so honest, Everly.
00:43:42It's one of the many things I admire about you.
00:43:44And although it's going to kill me,
00:43:48I want you to go to bed.
00:43:50You're too noble for me.
00:43:52No one's ever said that to me before.
00:43:56Good night, sweetheart.
00:44:00Now go
00:44:02before I change my mind.
00:44:06Did that just happen?
00:44:08Am I actually dating
00:44:10Julian Barlow?
00:44:14This is nice.
00:44:16Just holding your hand.
00:44:20What are we going to tell Bella?
00:44:22I don't want to get her hopes up.
00:44:24But we are dating now.
00:44:26Change of steps.
00:44:28We have to put her first.
00:44:30Have you always thought of others
00:44:32at the expense of yourself?
00:44:34That's why I was bullied so much growing up.
00:44:36And why people take advantage of me.
00:44:38Don't say that.
00:44:40You're the best person I know, Everly.
00:44:42And now you have me.
00:44:44And I promise I won't let anyone
00:44:46hurt you anymore.
00:44:54So you think you can replace me
00:44:56with this whore, Julian?
00:44:58Let's see how that works out when I get through
00:45:00with the both of you.
00:45:06So,
00:45:08this is your latest slut.
00:45:10Are you following me?
00:45:12I'm Bella's mother.
00:45:14I need to know what her father is doing.
00:45:16And who.
00:45:18So you fuck the help now, Julian?
00:45:20Who I'm with is none of your business.
00:45:22You gave that right up three years ago
00:45:24when you cheated on me with my best friend.
00:45:26Then you abandoned your daughter
00:45:28and went to Europe with some tennis pro
00:45:30at a club.
00:45:32That was ages ago.
00:45:34I've changed now.
00:45:36I'm ready to be a wife and mother.
00:45:38Everybody is my wife now.
00:45:40And stay away from Bella.
00:45:42You don't have visitation rights.
00:45:44Oh, we'll see about that.
00:45:46I'm Bella's birth mother.
00:45:48That's never going to change.
00:45:50I can't lose my daughter,
00:45:52or we'll...
00:45:54You won't. We'll fight it together.
00:46:04Hello, sir.
00:46:06What can I get for you today?
00:46:08I need to ask a favor of you.
00:46:10Sorry.
00:46:12No freebies for men with mean ex-wives?
00:46:14No ex-wife.
00:46:16Just one wife right in front of me.
00:46:20I'm still working.
00:46:22I'll have to kick you out
00:46:24if you're not a paying customer.
00:46:26Then I'll pay now.
00:46:32I guess just bought the entire store.
00:46:34I need help
00:46:36from my favorite cake baker.
00:46:38Bella's elementary school is hosting a bake sale,
00:46:40and every family brings
00:46:42a homemade dessert,
00:46:44and they all compete for first place.
00:46:46Would you want to go with us?
00:46:50You want me to be a part of your family?
00:46:52In front of your neighbors?
00:46:54Of course.
00:46:56No, you have to stir in the same direction
00:46:58clockwise 30 times.
00:47:00Wow.
00:47:02I had no idea you had to be so accurate.
00:47:04We do if you want to be the best.
00:47:08No, not like that. Like this.
00:47:18You are the worst student.
00:47:20I'm sorry. I can't help it.
00:47:22I'm sorry.
00:47:24You are the worst student.
00:47:26I'm sorry. I can't concentrate
00:47:28because my teacher's so hot.
00:47:42Everly and Daddy
00:47:44sitting in a tree.
00:47:46Can I ask
00:47:48if I am free?
00:47:50I'm gonna get you.
00:47:52Come here.
00:48:10Hey, Bella. Remember me?
00:48:14No. I'm your mother.
00:48:16No, you're not. Everly's my mom.
00:48:18I chose her.
00:48:20You can't choose your mother.
00:48:22You're born with one and that's what you get.
00:48:24That's enough, Kindra.
00:48:26You're upsetting Bella and causing a scene.
00:48:28Whatever. Move aside.
00:48:30I'm going to win this bake sale
00:48:32and prove who the real mother is.
00:48:34Those are store-bought cookies.
00:48:36Christian thinking.
00:48:38No. She made those.
00:48:40Her family owns Rossi Cookies.
00:48:42They're a franchise.
00:48:44They have stores in every country.
00:48:46You didn't tell me your ex was a world-renowned baker.
00:48:48I have a tenth of your talent.
00:48:50Her grandma's the baker.
00:48:52She uses the recipes.
00:48:54There's not one creative bone in her body.
00:49:00Oh, my God.
00:49:02That's amazing.
00:49:04I want to buy all of it.
00:49:06Who made this?
00:49:08Julian Barlow?
00:49:10I had no idea he was such a talented baker.
00:49:14Here.
00:49:16Try mine.
00:49:18Not to brag, but the Rossi name is renowned in the world of desserts.
00:49:22Not bad, but nowhere near the Barlow's.
00:49:24I'm telling you all to taste it.
00:49:26It's simply magic in your mouth.
00:49:28I think we know who the winner is.
00:49:32Yay!
00:49:38You want to see magic?
00:49:40I'm going to make that bitch disappear.
00:49:42Abra-fucking-cadabra.
00:49:46Can't forget that.
00:49:48Top of Bella's grocery list.
00:49:50She would never forgive me.
00:49:52Well, aren't we the perfect little housewife?
00:49:54That is,
00:49:56until Bella is rushed to the hospital.
00:49:58Oops.
00:50:04Early.
00:50:06Hi.
00:50:08So lucky to run into you here.
00:50:10Oh.
00:50:12I owe you an apology for how rude I was to you earlier.
00:50:14In my defense,
00:50:16you'd have to be a mother
00:50:18to understand how it feels
00:50:20to see another woman raising a child.
00:50:22Do you have it in your heart to forgive me?
00:50:24It's Bella and Julian you owe an apology to,
00:50:26not me.
00:50:28Watch your back.
00:50:30There's a long line of women
00:50:32waiting to get their claws into Julian.
00:50:34Beautiful, sexy,
00:50:36sophisticated women.
00:50:38We're suited to his lifestyle.
00:50:40He sees every want and desire.
00:50:42Is there some kind of threat?
00:50:44No.
00:50:46Just a cold, hard fact
00:50:48that you, Everly Harper,
00:50:50will never be more than a glorified babysitter
00:50:52to him.
00:50:54That's funny.
00:50:56Because you'll never be more than a bitter memory to him.
00:51:00Now stop messing with our family.
00:51:04Next time, I won't be so nice.
00:51:06Next time, I won't be so nice.
00:51:12Next time, you'll be the psycho
00:51:14who drugged Julian's daughter.
00:51:20Can I ask you a question?
00:51:24Why did you choose me?
00:51:26Oh.
00:51:28Where's this coming from?
00:51:30I mean, once Bella grows up
00:51:32and doesn't need a mom anymore.
00:51:34Well, you just don't want to be with me?
00:51:36Everly, sweetheart,
00:51:38this doesn't sound like you.
00:51:40It's just, I'm not like
00:51:42the society women you've dated in the past.
00:51:44What if you get bored with me?
00:51:50Imagine dating someone
00:51:52who barely eats because they're watching their figure
00:51:54and spends more time with their plastic surgeons
00:51:56and with their family.
00:51:58You mean these society women?
00:52:00You're so bad.
00:52:04I'm sorry.
00:52:06I let Kendra get in my head.
00:52:08When'd she see Kendra?
00:52:12It's Bella's school.
00:52:14This is Julian Barlow.
00:52:18Emergency room.
00:52:20Uh-huh.
00:52:22I understand. I'm on my way.
00:52:24What's going on? Is Bella okay?
00:52:26The school nurse said that she was poisoned.
00:52:28I don't think she ate.
00:52:30Something about a lollipop.
00:52:38Bella is asleep.
00:52:40Fortunately, the lab results
00:52:42just showed that it was a common prescribed
00:52:44sedative that was on the lollipop.
00:52:46How does this happen? I don't understand.
00:52:48I have to ask,
00:52:50have you had any threats recently
00:52:52or encountered any suspicious characters?
00:52:54It came as soon as I heard.
00:52:56How is our precious Bella?
00:52:58She's coming along.
00:53:00Okay. Poison?
00:53:02My God, what kind of monster
00:53:04would poison an innocent child?
00:53:06With a lollipop, no less.
00:53:08I'm sorry.
00:53:10Doctor, did you say lollipop?
00:53:12The perpetrator poisoned Julian and my daughter
00:53:14with a lollipop.
00:53:18Well, that's interesting
00:53:20because I ran into Everleigh at the bakery yesterday
00:53:22and I saw one of Bella's
00:53:24favorite rainbow-colored lollipops.
00:53:26Are you suggesting
00:53:28that I had something to do with this?
00:53:30You gave Bella that lollipop,
00:53:32did you not?
00:53:38I did, but
00:53:40I can't believe this.
00:53:42Our precious Bella,
00:53:44our little angel, drugged
00:53:46by yet another baby.
00:53:48I did no such thing.
00:53:50Hold on, Bella's been poisoned before?
00:53:52Is this true, Julian?
00:53:54When she was 18 months old, I babysat her
00:53:56and I haven't been able to trust anyone
00:53:58since then, just you.
00:54:00But now I...
00:54:02Now what?
00:54:04I'll tell you what.
00:54:06You're not coming near Bella ever again.
00:54:10No, no, this can't be real.
00:54:12You know I would never hurt Bella.
00:54:14You know I love her like she's my own daughter.
00:54:16Oh, but she's not.
00:54:18Julian,
00:54:20will you be calling security
00:54:22or shall I?
00:54:24Julian, will you be calling
00:54:26security or shall I?
00:54:30Everly,
00:54:32I'm sorry. I'm sorry
00:54:34for ever doubting you, even for a second.
00:54:36I know that you could never harm Bella.
00:54:38Not because you're my wife,
00:54:40but because of your loving heart.
00:54:42Julian, what are you saying? She's dangerous!
00:54:44Stop, Kendra, just stop!
00:54:46But...
00:54:48Look at the evidence.
00:54:50Everly bought the rainbow-colored lollipop
00:54:52for Bella. Who else could have tampered with it?
00:54:56How did you know it was a rainbow lollipop?
00:54:58No one mentioned
00:55:00what color it was.
00:55:02No, you switched them.
00:55:04At the bakery parking lot,
00:55:06that's why you were there.
00:55:08You drugged your own daughter
00:55:10just to frame me? What kind of sicko does that?
00:55:12You can't prove that.
00:55:14But your prescription medicine can.
00:55:16Julian, stop! That's not mine!
00:55:18She's been taking sedatives since I met her.
00:55:22That's exactly what was found in Bella's system.
00:55:24It's...
00:55:26You psychotic bitch!
00:55:28First you tried to kill my daughter, now you're trying to frame my wife?
00:55:30It's common. It could be
00:55:32found from anywhere. It could have been
00:55:34anyone.
00:55:36It could have been you.
00:55:38It was you, wasn't it? I'm telling you, it wasn't
00:55:40mine!
00:55:42Bella's waking up.
00:55:48Thank God she's
00:55:50okay.
00:55:52The thought of losing her was too much to bear.
00:55:54We don't have to think about that.
00:55:56She has you.
00:55:58I have you.
00:56:00And we all have each other.
00:56:02Whatever comes our way,
00:56:04that's what family's
00:56:06for.
00:56:08That's what it means to love.
00:56:10Exactly.
00:56:14Stop it. We're in the children's
00:56:16ward.
00:56:18I'm pretty sure all these doctors and nurses know how
00:56:20babies are born.
00:56:26Mommy? Daddy?
00:56:28Brain check?
00:56:30Oh, you can count on it.
00:56:32Is that my little munchkin in there
00:56:34making noise?
00:56:36Welcome in.
00:56:38What gang is starting?
00:56:40No.
00:56:42What, is there a rule against selling a cake
00:56:44to your ex? Come on, Olivia.
00:56:46Look,
00:56:48Everly, I'm sorry. I made a big mistake.
00:56:50I'll admit that, but I've changed.
00:56:52I left Olivia, and I just
00:56:54want to start fresh. I want to do this again.
00:56:56Are you serious?
00:56:58Yes, it was all Olivia's doing. You know how manipulative
00:57:00she can be, and I
00:57:02only loved you the entire time.
00:57:04You think Julian? Julian's a
00:57:06multi-billionaire. You think he'd really go for someone
00:57:08like you? I mean, get real, Everly.
00:57:10If he doesn't love you,
00:57:12I do.
00:57:14We should have a daughter without you.
00:57:16Get
00:57:18the hell
00:57:20out of my bakery.
00:57:22You fucking bitch.
00:57:24No one's gonna come to save you.
00:57:28Stay away from my wife!
00:57:30Last warning! Stay away
00:57:32from her or I'll break more than just your arm.
00:57:34Motherfucker.
00:57:36If I can't have her, no one can.
00:57:44Thank you for stepping in, Julian.
00:57:46I wish I could be here all the time,
00:57:48but I can't.
00:57:50Nolan,
00:57:52it's gonna be a problem.
00:57:54I can't exactly lock my doors.
00:57:56Don't work by yourself anymore.
00:57:58Make sure Samantha's with you.
00:58:03Something for the lunch kid.
00:58:09I have to pick her up right now.
00:58:11We'll see you later?
00:58:13Stay there.
00:58:29And the hits
00:58:31keep coming.
00:58:33First my ex, now his.
00:58:35We'll never catch a break.
00:58:45We have to keep that
00:58:47from Bella. I'll get my lawyer
00:58:49to file a restraining order against
00:58:51Kendra this week.
00:58:53Maybe there's a way we can make peace with Bella's mom.
00:58:55We've tried.
00:58:57She's turned every attempt against us,
00:58:59and Bella...
00:59:01I can't risk
00:59:03losing my daughter.
00:59:07How can I help protect Bella?
00:59:09No, Everly, it's not your fight.
00:59:11Yes, it is. Contract or not, you and I are in this together.
00:59:13I can't stand by while you and Bella suffer.
00:59:29What if Bella wakes up?
00:59:31She hung her head years ago.
00:59:33I just kept it.
00:59:35Oh, no.
00:59:59Okay.
01:00:01I'm sorry.
01:00:27What are your thoughts on a family date?
01:00:29The three of us.
01:00:31You wanna go on a picnic?
01:00:35I'll go wherever you'll take me.
01:00:39So where did you get Bun Bun?
01:00:41When I was three years old.
01:00:43Yep, we were outside and she saw a rabbit run across the yard
01:00:47and she looked at me and reached her hands out
01:00:49and I said, no, I can't have a wild animal.
01:00:51So she started crying.
01:00:53So naturally, I got her Bun Bun the next day.
01:00:55Naturally.
01:00:59Hello.
01:01:05My baby. Come to mom.
01:01:07What are you doing here? You look like a stalker.
01:01:09I'm still your mother.
01:01:11And I brought your favorite food.
01:01:13Strawberries.
01:01:15Everly loves me more than you.
01:01:17And I love her too.
01:01:19And I can't eat strawberries.
01:01:23Darling.
01:01:25That woman is just after daddy's money.
01:01:27You're lying.
01:01:29I hate you.
01:01:31You can't talk to me like that.
01:01:33I'm your mother.
01:01:35No, you're not. Everly is my mommy.
01:01:37You're scary.
01:01:39You little brat.
01:01:41Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:01:43Mommy, daddy.
01:01:45Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:01:47Mommy, daddy.
01:01:49Kendra, what the hell?
01:01:51I'm trying to protect my daughter
01:01:53from this fucking bitch.
01:01:55I can't speak my language in front of Bella.
01:01:57Strawberries? Kendra, are you insane?
01:01:59Bella is deathly allergic.
01:02:01How was I supposed to know?
01:02:03You never let me see that thing.
01:02:05That's a lie. You abandoned her.
01:02:07Shut up, you lying gold digger.
01:02:09I'm twice the mother that you'll ever be.
01:02:11Bella!
01:02:13Come back, sweetie.
01:02:15She's overwhelmed. You're scaring her.
01:02:17You know nothing about my daughter.
01:02:19But I know about you.
01:02:21You're just a foster kid.
01:02:23One step up from the gutter.
01:02:25Bella and I both know that
01:02:27Everly is the best thing to happen to this family.
01:02:31Bella, sweetie.
01:02:33You can't possibly think that this poor
01:02:35substitute is better than a real mother.
01:02:37We have the same blood.
01:02:39You're part Rossi.
01:02:41You can't ask your daughter that.
01:02:43Shut up!
01:02:45Kendra, this isn't some game that you can win.
01:02:47This is Bella and Julian's lives.
01:02:49I don't know why, but you abandoned them.
01:02:51You trying to snatch them back
01:02:53just so you can win won't make you happy.
01:02:55You have to move on.
01:02:57You have to move on.
01:03:03I know I don't deserve her.
01:03:05But I found out last month that
01:03:07I'm infertile.
01:03:09I can never have another baby.
01:03:11Bella's it for me.
01:03:21I know she's done
01:03:23some bad things.
01:03:25But she's still your mother, Bella.
01:03:27Why don't you go give her a hug?
01:03:31I don't really hate you.
01:03:33I know, baby.
01:03:37It's all my fault.
01:03:43You're right.
01:03:45I only wanted to win.
01:03:47You can win again.
01:03:49You can win a game,
01:03:51but you can never win someone's heart.
01:03:53You're very wise.
01:03:55Don't get me wrong,
01:03:57I don't want to be your friend.
01:03:59I'm just trying to leave my daughter
01:04:01with a happy memory.
01:04:05Take care, Kendra.
01:04:07Maybe one day I'll let Bella write you.
01:04:09She's older.
01:04:13Bye, sweetie.
01:04:15She fell for my sob story.
01:04:17Stupid bitch.
01:04:19I won't stop until I get my man back
01:04:21and the kid with him.
01:04:29Oh!
01:04:31What's all this for?
01:04:33100th Annual
01:04:35International Bake Off.
01:04:37Sounds like a big deal.
01:04:39It's invitation only,
01:04:41and I can't believe I got in.
01:04:43If I do well,
01:04:45it'll really help put the bakery on the map.
01:04:47Give it how you rocked that bake sale.
01:04:49You've got this in the bag.
01:04:51That was nothing.
01:04:53I need a showstopper that's going to dazzle their taste buds
01:04:55and win over their hearts.
01:04:59So what's the secret weapon?
01:05:01Vanilla rosemary
01:05:03five-layer cake topped with a lavender
01:05:05buttercream and a hint of orange zest.
01:05:07Sounds like I need to clear some space
01:05:09on the mantle for that first place trophy.
01:05:11Cut it out!
01:05:13I'm trying to concentrate.
01:05:15Oh. Am I distracting you?
01:05:17I'm a sucker
01:05:19for a messy apron.
01:05:23Okay, fine. You can stay,
01:05:25but you have to make yourself useful.
01:05:27What's first, chef?
01:05:31Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to our
01:05:33100th Annual International Bake Off.
01:05:35Please find your seat.
01:05:37Our competition will start shortly.
01:05:41You got this, girl.
01:05:43We'll be in the front row cheering you on, okay?
01:05:45Thank you, Sammy.
01:05:47I'm going to go check my presentation one more time.
01:05:53Knock them dead out there, sweetheart.
01:05:57Good luck.
01:06:05There you are,
01:06:07falling nicely into my trap.
01:06:09Who do you think arranged the invite,
01:06:11you pathetic nobody?
01:06:21Hey, Everly.
01:06:23Ready to get crushed?
01:06:25What are you doing here?
01:06:27Are you stalking me?
01:06:29You look scared.
01:06:31You should be.
01:06:33I'm going to win that trophy
01:06:35and prove who's the better baker and mother.
01:06:37I'm infertile.
01:06:39I can never have another baby.
01:06:41So everything you said at the park was a lie.
01:06:43You're not infertile.
01:06:45You just can't stand that Bella chose me.
01:06:47I'm her fucking mother, bitch.
01:06:49You're a monster.
01:06:51And you're just an amateur
01:06:53who doesn't deserve to be here.
01:06:55Did you really think
01:06:57you earned a place in this competition?
01:06:59I'm the one who got the judges to invite you,
01:07:01and now Julian's going to see
01:07:03what a poor orphan loser you truly are.
01:07:07Bring it on, Rossi.
01:07:09My recipe has heart and soul,
01:07:11and they will beat your assembly line crap
01:07:13any day.
01:07:17Oh, yeah?
01:07:19Do you know what goes great with cake?
01:07:21What?
01:07:23Coffee.
01:07:27Oops!
01:07:33Kendra, what the hell?
01:07:35You better go get cleaned up.
01:07:37Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:07:39So unsanitary.
01:07:57Your knight in shining armor can't save your ass this time.
01:07:59Never leave.
01:08:01Our next competitor,
01:08:03Kendra Rossi.
01:08:09Hi, judge.
01:08:11This is my own one-of-a-kind
01:08:13original recipe.
01:08:15A
01:08:17vanilla rosemary
01:08:19five-layer cake with lavender buttercream
01:08:21and a hint of orange zest.
01:08:23That's my cake!
01:08:27What are you talking about?
01:08:29You stole my recipe.
01:08:31A nobody accusing me,
01:08:33a Rossi, of cheating?
01:08:35How dare you?
01:08:37Man.
01:08:39You have impeccable taste in women
01:08:41because obviously you chose Everly.
01:08:43But that woman up there?
01:08:45How did you end up with such a nightmare ex?
01:08:47I was young
01:08:49and stupid.
01:08:51Yeah, obviously. So what are we going to do to salvage this?
01:08:53Can't you just, like, pull some strings or something?
01:08:55You're Julie and freaking Barlow, for goodness sake.
01:08:57It's not that simple.
01:08:59I know Everly wouldn't want to win that way.
01:09:01Dammit.
01:09:03So what do we do now?
01:09:07Kendra can't get away with this.
01:09:09A nobody
01:09:11accusing me, a Rossi,
01:09:13of cheating?
01:09:15How dare you?
01:09:19Oops!
01:09:21You better go get cleaned up.
01:09:23Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:09:25So that's why you spilled coffee on me.
01:09:27So you could hack my laptop
01:09:29behind my back the same way you switched the lollipops
01:09:31behind my back when you poisoned Bella.
01:09:35That is a serious accusation.
01:09:37Now, can you prove
01:09:39that this cake is your creation?
01:09:41Here's your proof.
01:09:49We can't see anything.
01:09:51The screen is blank.
01:09:53What happened to my files?
01:09:55They're not there.
01:09:57As I said, this recipe is mine
01:09:59and mine alone.
01:10:01No, no, no, no, it's not true!
01:10:03Kendra Rossi, you're a thief!
01:10:05I think we've heard enough.
01:10:07Sir, I know this recipe,
01:10:09my recipe, by heart.
01:10:11I can recite it from memory.
01:10:13I'm afraid that doesn't prove anything.
01:10:15Now, I think it's best
01:10:17that you leave the stage now
01:10:19and go to bed.
01:10:21Leave the stage now,
01:10:23for I have to disqualify you.
01:10:25Isn't that the baker
01:10:27from Sweet Escape Bakery?
01:10:29Not going to her shop, ever.
01:10:35Wait!
01:10:39Wait!
01:10:41This will prove the recipe
01:10:43is Everly's.
01:10:45Now, you're going to want to let it cool
01:10:47for about ten minutes.
01:10:49Hey, back on me!
01:10:51This is the important part.
01:10:53The last step is to lightly dust
01:10:55with a layer of orange zest,
01:10:57just enough to reach the edges.
01:11:05And then you're going to want to add
01:11:07a pinch of salt.
01:11:09And...
01:11:11voila!
01:11:13You'll see the timestamp
01:11:15of this raw footage was taken
01:11:17two weeks ago.
01:11:19And speaking from experience,
01:11:21no one can make this cake
01:11:23exactly like my wife.
01:11:31Something's different.
01:11:33Taste for yourself.
01:11:35Here.
01:11:41Salt.
01:11:43It's missing the salt. I didn't include it
01:11:45in my recipe notes. It was a last-minute, spur-of-the-moment
01:11:47addition, totally spontaneous.
01:11:49And yet, it made all the difference
01:11:51in the world.
01:11:53Salt?
01:11:55Salt?
01:12:05Salt?
01:12:11Salt or not,
01:12:13this is no ordinary cake.
01:12:15And it could
01:12:17only come from the heart
01:12:19and soul of
01:12:21an extraordinary baker.
01:12:27You almost ruined
01:12:29my wife today! This is your last straw!
01:12:31Confess, or I'm calling the police!
01:12:33But I didn't.
01:12:35Okay, okay!
01:12:39I did it.
01:12:41I did it.
01:12:43All of it. Are you happy now?
01:12:45Dragging me in the mud like this
01:12:47in front of everyone?
01:12:49Julian, you broke my heart!
01:12:51You have to have a heart for it to be broken.
01:12:53How can you say that?
01:12:55I loved you more than
01:12:57anything, and then this bitch
01:12:59gets into the picture and suddenly I'm nothing?
01:13:01Just some garbage
01:13:03you can throw away?
01:13:05What is so special about her, Julian?
01:13:07She's not prettier than me.
01:13:09She can't be better in bed than me.
01:13:11What do you possibly see in her that you don't see in me?
01:13:13Maybe I'm just a better
01:13:15baker than you, Kendra.
01:13:19Here. Have a taste.
01:13:21I don't want your stupid salt.
01:13:23Oh!
01:13:25Oh my god!
01:13:27It smells disgusting.
01:13:29It smells like a rotten potato chip
01:13:31and Bella could have made
01:13:33a better cake than that.
01:13:35I...
01:13:37I don't even know
01:13:39what to say about everything that's going on here.
01:13:41Say I can present my cake.
01:13:43That's all I came
01:13:45here to do, sir.
01:13:47Fair enough.
01:13:49The ingredients in my cake are pretty traditional in terms of regular cake
01:13:51ingredients. I like the rosemary because it
01:13:53tends to cut through the sweetness
01:13:55of traditional cakes while also balancing
01:13:57the orange zest, aromatic flavoring
01:13:59that we really look for in a well-balanced
01:14:01cake. I also, um, not
01:14:03listed, I add a little bit of salt on top
01:14:05just to balance everything out and
01:14:07I hope you really like it.
01:14:15We have seen
01:14:17a lot of great bakes this year
01:14:19but nothing in the
01:14:21history of this competition has
01:14:23ever compared to this
01:14:25year's first prize winner
01:14:27Everly Harper!
01:14:29This year's first prize
01:14:31winner, Everly Harper!
01:14:33Congratulations,
01:14:35Miss Harper.
01:14:37Truly well deserved.
01:14:39Would you
01:14:41excuse me?
01:14:45Oh,
01:14:47we did it, Samantha, we did it!
01:14:49No, Everly, you did this.
01:14:51Hold on.
01:14:55Listen to this, orders are flooding
01:14:57in like crazy.
01:14:59No, I've got this, trust me.
01:15:01Now get out of here, go celebrate
01:15:03with your hubby.
01:15:05Yeah?
01:15:07I am so proud of you,
01:15:09Everly.
01:15:19Get lost. I'm more likely to
01:15:21stick a bitch than suck a dick right now.
01:15:23Good,
01:15:25then we both want the same thing.
01:15:27Yeah, what's that?
01:15:29Revenge.
01:15:31I've spent the last two weeks learning
01:15:33everything I can about Julian Barlow
01:15:35and Everly Harper's relationship
01:15:37and I think what I found might interest you.
01:15:39Who the fuck are you?
01:15:41I'm someone that
01:15:43hates Julian and I heard you're
01:15:45someone that hates Everly.
01:15:47So I have a plan that'll get us
01:15:49both what we want.
01:15:51I'm listening.
01:15:59Am I doing it right?
01:16:01Those look great. Just squeeze
01:16:03your bag a little bit tighter, more icing
01:16:05equals more smiles.
01:16:09Okay, time to switch to croissants.
01:16:11The chocolate filled kind?
01:16:13All different kinds. Can you
01:16:15go in the freezer in the back and get
01:16:17me two blocks of butter, they are
01:16:19on the left side middle shelf. Left side middle
01:16:21shelf, two blocks. Got it.
01:16:39You're coming with me, Bella.
01:16:41I'm your mother, not that whore.
01:16:43Everly!
01:16:45Save your breath, kid.
01:16:47She can't hear you anyway.
01:16:49Everly!
01:16:51Shut up!
01:16:55Go!
01:17:17Bella?
01:17:19Bella? Bella!
01:17:31Everly!
01:17:33Back here!
01:17:39Ticks.
01:17:41Shh.
01:17:47Shh.
01:17:51This is Julian Barlow.
01:17:53I have your daughter, and if I don't get
01:17:55200 million in cash by sundown
01:17:57she won't see the sunrise.
01:17:59What did you do with Bella? Who is this?
01:18:0110 million. Unmarked bills
01:18:03split into two separate duffel bags.
01:18:05Let me talk to Bella.
01:18:07I need to know she's safe. Only after
01:18:09I get the money. Damn you!
01:18:11She's just a little girl. There's an abandoned
01:18:13campsite at the end of Canyon Ridge Road.
01:18:15Put the cash inside the office cabin
01:18:17and come alone
01:18:19because I'll be watching.
01:18:21When do I get Bella?
01:18:29What are we gonna do?
01:18:31I'll call my bank
01:18:33and I'll get the money within an hour.
01:18:37Hello?
01:18:39Anybody?
01:18:41Hello? What is she doing here?
01:18:43I need an explanation for this.
01:18:45Mother, now is not the time for this.
01:18:47I had to learn from Kendra that you're
01:18:49not married at all, that you fake everything.
01:18:51What is this? This is from my
01:18:53safe. Combination was Bella's
01:18:55birthday. Very sloppy
01:18:57of you, Julian. How could you lie
01:18:59to your own mother and present
01:19:01this fraud as if she were actually
01:19:03your wife? I knew she was a gold digger
01:19:05but I didn't know she was a tramp for hire.
01:19:07Silence!
01:19:09This is not
01:19:11important right now. That is just a piece of
01:19:13paper, mother. I have to find Bella.
01:19:15She's been kidnapped. My grandbaby
01:19:17has been kidnapped? What happened?
01:19:19Bella and I were baking
01:19:21and someone grabbed me.
01:19:23I blacked out
01:19:25and when I woke up, she was gone.
01:19:27I have
01:19:29to get the ransom money together now so if you two
01:19:31could please just... Just what?
01:19:33Stand aside and let you
01:19:35handle it? You brought this
01:19:37tramp into my daughter's home and because of her
01:19:39Bella's life is at stake.
01:19:43Ew. It smells.
01:19:45Did you just let common
01:19:47street trash walk in here? Don't talk about
01:19:49him like that. Bernie is a veteran. He served
01:19:51our country.
01:19:53I'm sorry, Bernie. I don't have the day offs for you
01:19:55today. But I have something
01:19:57for you, bad lady.
01:19:59I saw her.
01:20:01And a tall man.
01:20:05Go back and crawl into whatever hole you came
01:20:07out of, you filthy animal.
01:20:09I saw them.
01:20:13They took that little
01:20:15girl. You fucking bitch!
01:20:17What did you do? Where's Bella?
01:20:19He's obviously deranged. Or on drugs.
01:20:21Or both.
01:20:23A tall man. Did he have short
01:20:25blonde hair?
01:20:27Athletic build?
01:20:31Nolan. She's working
01:20:33with Nolan. Where is she?
01:20:35Where is Bella? Tell me
01:20:37now!
01:20:39I...
01:20:45What the hell? Where's my daughter?
01:20:53Where is she?
01:21:05Daddy?
01:21:11My little
01:21:13escape artist.
01:21:15You can come out now, Munchkin.
01:21:17It's safe.
01:21:19Daddy and Evelyn are here.
01:21:21Daddy and Evelyn are here.
01:21:33This is
01:21:35ridiculous! It's not kidnapping if
01:21:37it's your own child!
01:21:39This is ridiculous!
01:21:41It's not kidnapping if it's your own
01:21:43child!
01:21:45It's over.
01:21:47It's finally over.
01:21:49Is it me and Mommy gone for
01:21:51good, Daddy? She'll never bother you
01:21:53again, Munchkin. I want
01:21:55you both to know that I'm
01:21:57very ashamed for my part in Kendra's
01:21:59scheme. But you can't
01:22:01continue this fake marriage.
01:22:03You're right, Mother.
01:22:07Everly Harper,
01:22:09you're the most loving,
01:22:11brave, and talented woman I've
01:22:13ever known. Your beauty is just
01:22:15dessert after a rich meal.
01:22:17My life feels full with you
01:22:19in it. Will you do me
01:22:21the honor of marrying me?
01:22:23And me!
01:22:29Julian Barlow,
01:22:31if I was to create
01:22:33a recipe for the bravest,
01:22:35smartest, most loving man,
01:22:37it would be you.
01:22:39Your wealth
01:22:41is not a dessert, but a mere appetizer.
01:22:43So, yes,
01:22:45I will marry you.
01:22:47And me, too.
01:22:51I don't know what all
01:22:53that nonsense about food was,
01:22:55but the rest was lovely.
01:22:57I guess I'll give the girl
01:22:59a chance if she can make my son and
01:23:01grandbaby smile like that.
01:23:03This way. Look at this guy.
01:23:05Do you see that?
01:23:15So pretty.
01:23:21I helped make that!
01:23:23Yes, you did, Bella.
01:23:25Have you guys ever seen
01:23:27such a beautiful family?
01:23:29I'm so happy to see you.
01:23:31beautiful family, I'm so happy for you.
01:23:33Thanks, bestie.
01:23:36Mommy, how about a cake fight?
01:23:40You're a girl after my own heart, Bella.
01:23:43Everybody, cake fight!
01:23:45I'm so excited!
01:24:08Couldn't you have gotten me something more practical?
01:24:23This is going to be a bear to bake with.
01:24:25Only my wife would complain about a 15 carat flawless
01:24:28diamond being too big.
01:24:30Sorry.
01:24:33I'm not.
01:24:36God, I love you.
01:24:40Hey, Mr. Barlow.
01:24:42Hey, Miss Barlow.
01:24:44Who said I was changing my name?
01:24:50On the topic of change, I've been thinking.
01:24:53Bella needs a playmate.
01:24:56What do you think we give her, a sibling?
01:24:59Just one.
01:25:00Foster kid here.
01:25:01I always dreamed of having a big family.
01:25:04Well, how big are we talking?
