00:00:00They say the most primal human things are fighting, and well, I was about to learn both.
00:00:16Every girl wants to find her prince charming, but unfortunately we don't exactly live in
00:00:21a fairy tale world.
00:00:23There's no such thing as happily ever after.
00:00:26Where is the duck for table two?
00:00:29Table two ordered something special, chef.
00:00:32No, table two ordered the special, and the special is the duck.
00:00:37What is this?
00:00:38Nothing.
00:00:39Yes, exactly.
00:00:40This is nothing.
00:00:41Now.
00:00:42The duck.
00:00:43Just do what your boss says, Lily.
00:00:45You can't afford to lose another job.
00:00:47How can you pay for mom's operation when you're homeless?
00:00:51Table two, the duck.
00:00:56So I'm thinking about adopting a dog, you know, like the little tiny dogs that can fit
00:01:00in your handbag.
00:01:01They're so cute.
00:01:02So anyway, once your inheritance is secure, the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:01:07But what is this mystery clause you won't tell us about, Jack?
00:01:11Jack?
00:01:13Jack?
00:01:15Hello?
00:01:17Yeah, the dog.
00:01:21Hi.
00:01:24Hi.
00:01:29You ordered the special?
00:01:31Actually, I-
00:01:33Trust me.
00:01:34Who is that girl?
00:01:37Something about her.
00:01:39It's like I've been waiting for her my whole life.
00:01:41Well, that was presumptuous.
00:01:43Huh?
00:01:44The waitress not bringing you what I ordered?
00:01:46Don't tell me you're actually impressed by that little slut, Jack.
00:01:49It looks good.
00:01:51The food or the waitress?
00:02:01And what do you think you are doing?
00:02:03I'm making something from this century.
00:02:05You know what?
00:02:06That's it.
00:02:07I've had enough.
00:02:08You are fired.
00:02:09Get out of here.
00:02:10Not this again.
00:02:11What did you say?
00:02:13I am serious this time.
00:02:15You are fired.
00:02:16You get out of here.
00:02:17What?
00:02:18You take this.
00:02:19You give up your act.
00:02:20Get out.
00:02:21No, please, sir.
00:02:22It won't happen again.
00:02:23No more Mr. Nice Guy this time.
00:02:24You get out.
00:02:25You leave.
00:02:26Please.
00:02:27No.
00:02:28Now.
00:02:31They're taking the trash out, I see.
00:02:36Yeah, the trash.
00:02:41Asshole.
00:02:51Please.
00:02:52Don't scream.
00:02:53Don't scream, baby.
00:02:55Or do you want to scream for me?
00:02:57Please.
00:03:02Hey.
00:03:06No.
00:03:07No.
00:03:08No.
00:03:10No.
00:03:11No.
00:03:12No.
00:03:13No.
00:03:14No.
00:03:15No.
00:03:16No.
00:03:17No.
00:03:18No.
00:03:20Hey, wait.
00:03:43Not now, weren't I?
00:03:46Jack, my man.
00:03:47Que paso?
00:03:48I'm so sorry about what you just saw.
00:03:49So I'm a little disappointed that you're making me ask again.
00:03:52When you going to unlock the inheritance, bro?
00:03:53The deal of a lifetime isn't going to wait forever.
00:03:57Yeah.
00:03:58Yeah, come on.
00:03:59Are you even listening?
00:04:00I mean if we don't move on this Morrison thing, someone else will.
00:04:03And I mean, I'm not going to be that guy.
00:04:05Are you going to be that guy?
00:04:07Um...
00:04:10How can I help my mom when I can't even afford something to eat?
00:04:14Maybe next time.
00:04:15I'm fine.
00:04:18Thanks.
00:04:21Call me.
00:04:21I'll call you back.
00:04:22Jack, come on.
00:04:23He hung up on me.
00:04:24Jack's never done that before.
00:04:26If he doesn't lock away this inheritance deal,
00:04:28then the Morrison deal's over.
00:04:32We're over.
00:04:34Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren.
00:04:37I've got just the plan.
00:04:39Just when I think I've found her, she's gone again.
00:04:56How am I gonna find her again?
00:05:04You could always marry Vivian Chase, sir.
00:05:06You out of your mind?
00:05:08Vivian and I are done.
00:05:09Never again.
00:05:10She's just business now.
00:05:13Very well, sir.
00:05:15Although it is your inheritance at stake, sir.
00:05:18I'll find another wife.
00:05:20I'm afraid not.
00:05:21But the terms of your parents' will are quite specific.
00:05:25You must be married before your 32nd birthday
00:05:28for precisely 365 days.
00:05:30I know, I know.
00:05:31And with that fateful birthday fast approaching,
00:05:33there's little time.
00:05:35The inheritance must be claimed within the month.
00:05:38And most crucially of all,
00:05:40you must not tell a soul about the marriage cause.
00:05:44Especially your wife.
00:05:46Or I lose everything.
00:05:48Everything.
00:05:59Don't complain about anything.
00:06:00I don't complain.
00:06:01I don't.
00:06:02All I'm saying is,
00:06:03you're gonna have to start living in the real world.
00:06:06I am living in the real world.
00:06:13Really?
00:06:14Because getting fired yet from another restaurant job
00:06:16is the real world.
00:06:18Creative differences.
00:06:21There are always creative differences with you.
00:06:24Lily.
00:06:26You gotta open up your own place.
00:06:28You're a chef, not a fucking line cook.
00:06:30So you gotta show the world what you got.
00:06:33Besides, I have my share of money.
00:06:36But without yours,
00:06:37we're never gonna be able to afford mom's operation.
00:06:41Yeah, and it'll be all my fault.
00:06:44Lily.
00:06:47There is an opening at my office.
00:06:50Seriously?
00:06:52It's stable.
00:06:53Health insurance, 401K.
00:06:55I'd rather die.
00:06:56You'd rather be broke.
00:06:57No, I'd rather...
00:07:01No.
00:07:05How can you help mom
00:07:06when you can't even take care of yourself?
00:07:14Fine, yeah, you're right.
00:07:16Let's do it.
00:07:30Hi, name?
00:07:47Lily Dunning.
00:07:49Can I help you?
00:07:50Yes, I'm here for the job interview.
00:07:52My sister's Megan, she works here.
00:07:56Last place of employment?
00:07:57Chez Francois.
00:07:58A restaurant?
00:07:59Yes.
00:08:00Yes, I'm a chef, my passion's cooking, so I...
00:08:05And does this look like a restaurant to you?
00:08:07No.
00:08:08No, of course not.
00:08:10And why do you think someone like you could work here?
00:08:15I just need a job.
00:08:17Sorry, I'm...
00:08:18Thanks, we'll let you know, okay?
00:08:24You can go now.
00:08:25Bye-bye.
00:08:30Screw this!
00:08:36Fuck.
00:08:40What are you looking at?
00:08:54I'm sorry, Mom.
00:08:59I've tried everything and I've let you down.
00:09:01You?
00:09:05Me.
00:09:09You dropped something.
00:09:11How did you...?
00:09:15What are you doing here?
00:09:18I have a proposition for you.
00:09:20Sorry, I'm not interested in propositions from strange men in suits.
00:09:25Well, hold on, just hear me out.
00:09:27I heard you get fired.
00:09:29I know you don't have any money.
00:09:32Looks like you're in a bit of a rough spot.
00:09:34I'm doing fine, thank you.
00:09:37Really?
00:09:40What if I told you this proposition could solve all your problems?
00:09:45Really?
00:09:46Solve all my problems?
00:09:49I've got a lot of problems.
00:09:51What if I told you I need a wife?
00:09:53Are there apps for that?
00:09:55For one year.
00:09:56Classy.
00:09:57Look, listen.
00:09:59I have a very important business deal with some very important people involved.
00:10:03And I need to see stability.
00:10:06Okay, so find someone stable.
00:10:08Well, that's just it.
00:10:10I need someone who won't fall in love with me.
00:10:12Someone who will just walk away after the year.
00:10:15And you seem uniquely qualified.
00:10:18I thought you'd think I'm good at walking away.
00:10:26Okay, well, what's in it for me?
00:10:28Well, anything you want.
00:10:30Money.
00:10:31A place to live.
00:10:32Complete financial freedom to pursue your dreams.
00:10:35Just think of it as a business deal.
00:10:39Oh.
00:10:45Wow, um.
00:10:48Yeah, that's a really big diamond.
00:10:52It's just a very small part of the deal.
00:11:05You'll have your whole wing of the house.
00:11:07My own wing?
00:11:08Complete privacy.
00:11:10But you will have to attend events with me.
00:11:12Play the happy wife.
00:11:14Okay.
00:11:35This is, um, specific.
00:11:40I like clarity.
00:11:45Hmm.
00:11:49Wife agrees to perform.
00:11:53Hmm.
00:11:55Very specific.
00:11:59Is there a problem?
00:12:02Jack, we need to talk.
00:12:06What's going on here?
00:12:09No.
00:12:17I'm saying yes.
00:12:28To everything.
00:12:39To everything.
00:12:47This is insane.
00:12:48Shut up, Warren.
00:12:54This is fucking nuts.
00:12:56Shut the fuck up.
00:12:58I do.
00:13:08I do.
00:13:38Hmm.
00:13:49This marriage, it's just a contract?
00:13:57Well, I think that the contract says that this is my room.
00:14:08Hmm.
00:14:14Good night, husband.
00:14:26And this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain of an evening.
00:14:30And the room on the left is the kitchen.
00:14:33Hmm.
00:14:38And we have the west wing library and the east wing pool.
00:14:51How do you find anything in here?
00:14:53One of dots, madam.
00:14:56Hmm.
00:15:05And this room is the, um...
00:15:09Oh, dear.
00:15:12Would you excuse me?
00:15:14Of course.
00:15:15Apologies.
00:15:26Hmm.
00:15:47What are you doing here?
00:15:56Shh.
00:16:12Oh, my gosh.
00:16:18Problem?
00:16:21This is a lot.
00:16:24The contract stipulates appropriate attire for all occasions, including tonight's charity gala.
00:16:30I can't accept this.
00:16:32You can, and you will.
00:16:35Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.
00:16:42You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:45Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:55Hmm.
00:16:59Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?
00:17:01Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.
00:17:10Hi.
00:17:15And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?
00:17:18I don't need a knife. I need a chainsaw.
00:17:21Okay.
00:17:23Lucky. There you are.
00:17:25Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:17:28We simply must celebrate.
00:17:30Oh, I heard about your little stunt wedding.
00:17:33That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?
00:17:37I could think of a dozen things you could do to me.
00:17:45My God, this is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:49I'm sorry, but I didn't even do anything.
00:17:53Where did you find this one, Jackie?
00:17:55Waitress staff training school?
00:17:57Vivian.
00:17:59Oh, that was it.
00:18:01She was actually a waitress.
00:18:03Or, I don't remember, whatever it was.
00:18:07Excuse me.
00:18:10So, what you got to say, Hive?
00:18:13We're done with the ex.
00:18:19As I was saying...
00:18:44You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:18:49Okay.
00:19:12Wow.
00:19:14Good?
00:19:16Surprisingly good.
00:19:19Well, payment for spying.
00:19:22Payment accepted.
00:19:24You know, a house this grand, I would expect a kitchen to match.
00:19:33I had to make do.
00:19:35Yeah, well, I never cook.
00:19:38It's a shame.
00:19:41You can go now.
00:19:56You, um, wanted to see me?
00:20:00Time for your first lesson.
00:20:03You, um, wanted to see me?
00:20:07Time for your first lesson.
00:20:09My what?
00:20:15Self-defense.
00:20:17Never know when you might need it.
00:20:19I don't know if that's really...
00:20:20Number one.
00:20:21Stance.
00:20:24Move the feet apart.
00:20:26Bend this knee.
00:20:28Yep.
00:20:29Then move this foot forward.
00:20:31Good.
00:20:32Okay.
00:20:33Now, hands up.
00:20:35Protect the face.
00:20:37Okay.
00:20:38Now, like this.
00:20:41Oh, God.
00:20:47I'm not really good at this.
00:20:50We're just getting started.
00:20:52Oh.
00:20:54Maybe we should just focus on business.
00:20:58Rule number one.
00:21:01Stance.
00:21:03Right?
00:21:29Every chef needs proper tools.
00:21:32I, um, a business expense?
00:21:37Business expense.
00:21:40These aren't the best knives in the market.
00:21:44The best knives to the best chef.
00:21:48Why are you doing this?
00:21:50The contract.
00:21:51No.
00:21:53The real reason.
00:21:55The real reason.
00:21:57Maybe I just like watching you work.
00:22:02Maybe...
00:22:05You just like watching me.
00:22:10You know, that, um...
00:22:13This doesn't change anything.
00:22:15Of course not.
00:22:19This is for your mother.
00:22:24The...
00:22:27No, this is too much.
00:22:29This should cover the whole thing.
00:22:32At least I can do it.
00:22:36I think that's literally the nicest thing a man has ever done for me.
00:22:41What's the catch?
00:22:49Shit.
00:22:55We've got a problem.
00:22:56Morning to you, too.
00:22:58So, the inheritance release date is set, but if anyone finds out about the marriage, then...
00:23:02No one's gonna find out.
00:23:04Oh, really?
00:23:05Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town.
00:23:07It's under control.
00:23:09Is it?
00:23:12Because it seems like you're letting your feelings control all your...
00:23:15I said it's handled.
00:23:27Just remember what's at stake here, yeah?
00:23:30This Morrison deal...
00:23:32Is a deal of a lifetime.
00:23:36Don't tell me you're actually fooling me.
00:23:38Get out.
00:23:45Get out.
00:24:15Get out.
00:24:45Get out.
00:24:49Get out.
00:25:12Oh no.
00:25:14God.
00:25:20Jack, darling.
00:25:22Fancy seeing you here.
00:25:24Vivian?
00:25:25The 82 crystal.
00:25:27Remember the crystal, Jack?
00:25:30I can still feel it running down my back, just thinking about it.
00:25:33We even used to drink some of it.
00:25:36Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:38You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.
00:25:41I don't know.
00:25:44Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:46You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.
00:25:52Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:25:54This must be so boring for you.
00:25:56You're so insightful, Vivian.
00:25:58You do bore me.
00:26:01Darling, the adults have business to discuss.
00:26:04Why don't you go back to, like, chopping?
00:26:06Or whatever it is that you do.
00:26:09So basically, you know the company way that we have our investments holding in?
00:26:12I had a business meeting with Hannah today.
00:26:14And she has basically advised me to say that our investments are not making any profit.
00:26:18Because me, myself, isn't actually doing all too well.
00:26:21So my proposal for next year would be basically...
00:26:26Why, the whirlwind romance you've got there.
00:26:30What's the catch?
00:26:32There's always a catch.
00:26:34Excuse me, I...
00:26:36Rebecca Chen. Social pages.
00:26:38Two days from first meeting to marriage.
00:26:42It's much more than just a business meeting.
00:26:45It's more than just a business meeting.
00:26:48It's more than just a business meeting.
00:26:51It's more than just a business meeting.
00:26:54This must be some kind of record.
00:26:57Though lately I've been more interested in business deals.
00:27:01Hmm, what would you say?
00:27:04Love at first sight?
00:27:06Or something more contractual?
00:27:09You know, you should really write romance novels.
00:27:12Seems you have quite the imagination.
00:27:18We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.
00:27:21I have a feeling there's quite a story here.
00:27:32The Morrison Foundation dinner's tonight.
00:27:34Oh, great. Another dinner.
00:27:36It's important.
00:27:37They're all important.
00:27:39It's a part of the deal.
00:27:41They're all a part of the deal.
00:27:44You knew what you were signing up for.
00:27:46Did I?
00:27:49At least Vivian will be there.
00:27:51To talk deals and acquisitions and mergers.
00:27:56Whatever.
00:28:09Nice. Real mature.
00:28:14No, don't.
00:28:16Fuck.
00:28:18Okay. Okay, fine.
00:28:21You wanna go?
00:28:23No.
00:28:25No, no, please.
00:28:30Okay.
00:28:32Yeah, yeah.
00:28:34No, no, no.
00:28:36Let go.
00:28:38No.
00:28:40Ow!
00:28:46Yeah.
00:29:11Yeah.
00:29:17So, Jack's inheritance is all set.
00:29:20But he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the proceeds to the Morrison deal.
00:29:24That's a problem.
00:29:26Hmm. It's the girl, isn't it?
00:29:29The waitress.
00:29:30You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.
00:29:33And I thought you had everything under control.
00:29:35No, I've done my part.
00:29:37That's under way.
00:29:39And I thought you'd have your part under control.
00:29:43I have everything under control.
00:29:45Oh, really? Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian.
00:29:47You know, maybe I overestimated your sway over Jack.
00:29:51You haven't overestimated anything.
00:29:53I've just begun.
00:29:59I've got it.
00:30:02Hmm.
00:30:11Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.
00:30:15I live here.
00:30:17Of course you do.
00:30:20Okay, thanks.
00:30:23Jack, darling, should we proceed to the study?
00:30:26We need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:28Yeah.
00:30:32Well, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:40Vivian?
00:30:43Remember Tokyo?
00:30:45That sake bar?
00:30:47I'm married.
00:30:50Are you now?
00:30:52I hadn't noticed.
00:30:54Uh-oh.
00:30:56You know that feeling when you leave the house
00:31:00and you just feel like
00:31:02you've forgotten something?
00:31:12I forgot something.
00:31:15Maybe you can
00:31:18help me figure it out?
00:31:22Coffee?
00:31:25Oh, no thank you.
00:31:27Jack and I have much to catch up on.
00:31:30Oh, and Jack doesn't drink coffee.
00:31:33Do you, Jack?
00:31:35Actually, I've taken it up recently.
00:31:37I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it.
00:31:40And he just absolutely laps up
00:31:44every drop
00:31:46of my coffee.
00:31:49Isn't that right?
00:31:51Lily makes a great cup of coffee.
00:31:58So,
00:32:01how's Vivian?
00:32:03Focus on your form.
00:32:05You know, just wondering
00:32:07how long the two of you...
00:32:09Ancient history.
00:32:11That's not what I heard.
00:32:13From who?
00:32:14Around.
00:32:16Tokyo gets brought up a lot.
00:32:18You've been talking to Warren.
00:32:20You've been talking to Vivian.
00:32:23That's business.
00:32:25Everything is business with you, isn't it?
00:32:30But you know what?
00:32:33What's this?
00:32:36Some pretty big business
00:32:38that you haven't been sharing with me.
00:32:41I think Vivian wants some of it, too.
00:32:44But you know what?
00:32:47Maybe you should just keep your business to yourself.
00:32:51Sad.
00:32:53Watch your stance.
00:32:59I don't want to be lied to.
00:33:01I'm not lying, Lily.
00:33:05Don't break my heart.
00:33:09Yeah.
00:33:20Yeah.
00:33:44Yeah, the sky is so gray today.
00:33:46I hate it so much.
00:33:47Please act like you know me.
00:33:48There's someone following me.
00:33:49Oh my god, are you okay?
00:33:51Who's following you?
00:33:53That weirdo?
00:34:00Is he gone?
00:34:01I think he's gone.
00:34:11You sure?
00:34:13Yeah.
00:34:19Like that?
00:34:23I think your technique could use some work.
00:34:26I got the dota rights.
00:34:30Sure, that wasn't me.
00:34:44What?
00:34:50Of course.
00:34:51And I think the real challenge is
00:34:53market penetration and emerging economies.
00:34:56I'm sure Jax brought you up to speed on all of this.
00:35:00Um, actually, I...
00:35:02Tell me.
00:35:03What's your take on blockchain integration?
00:35:05Um...
00:35:06I think...
00:35:08I think...
00:35:10No comment?
00:35:11How surprising.
00:35:12Excuse me.
00:35:14Great thinking, Lily.
00:35:16All of our drinks could use a refill.
00:35:44Love you.
00:35:54But this thing isn't going to last forever, Jack.
00:35:57I don't know.
00:35:59I mean, what choice do you have?
00:36:01Clock's ticking, buddy.
00:36:03Unless you want to lose this deal forever.
00:36:07Lunch?
00:36:11I was just on my way out.
00:36:16Think about it, Jack.
00:36:25What was that about?
00:36:27Nothing.
00:36:28Just business.
00:36:29Just business.
00:36:30Of course.
00:36:32Lily, wait.
00:36:35What do you want, Jack?
00:36:58Taking you on a holiday.
00:37:00What?
00:37:01You have time for that?
00:37:03Time for that?
00:37:05A lot of time.
00:37:07Just us?
00:37:09I know what I want.
00:37:14Oh, what about, um...
00:37:16What about Warren and the deal?
00:37:18I can wait.
00:37:22There she is.
00:37:24What?
00:37:25That smile.
00:37:27It's the one you had when I first laid eyes on you.
00:37:30I'll never forget it.
00:37:32You know that I don't just, um...
00:37:35Serve that dish to anyone, right?
00:37:37Really?
00:37:38Mm-hmm.
00:37:43I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Thorne.
00:37:45I've been told to relay that there's a problem back at the office.
00:37:49Timeline on the deal has moved up.
00:37:51Safe.
00:37:53Would you like me to cancel the trip, sir?
00:37:58Yeah.
00:38:00Very good.
00:38:02Who sent the message?
00:38:04Vivian Chase, I think.
00:38:10Lil' Bae, I'm sorry.
00:38:11Don't, please.
00:38:12It's just business.
00:38:13It's business, yeah.
00:38:14I get it.
00:38:25Lil' Bae, I shouldn't, uh...
00:38:27Just shut up and...
00:38:29Taste this.
00:38:39Mm.
00:38:40This tastes, uh...
00:38:41Incredible?
00:38:42Yeah.
00:38:43Yeah, I know.
00:38:48Jack?
00:38:49Mm-hmm?
00:38:51Do you want more?
00:38:53Um, after this one?
00:38:54No.
00:38:56What the...
00:38:58Jack.
00:39:00Talk about us.
00:39:07How long are we gonna keep on doing this?
00:39:22Oh!
00:39:23Oh, my God.
00:39:26What was that?
00:39:34Any enemies?
00:39:36Business rivals?
00:39:39No one comes to mind.
00:39:41Security cameras?
00:39:44Being installed as we speak.
00:39:46Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:48Sorry.
00:39:50That's what I saw.
00:39:55I'm ruined.
00:39:56You okay?
00:39:58Yeah.
00:40:06I'm sorry.
00:40:08I'm sorry.
00:40:10I'm sorry.
00:40:12I'm sorry.
00:40:14I'm sorry.
00:40:20Yeah.
00:40:24This is so insane.
00:40:27It's probably just kids.
00:40:29Kids?
00:40:30Seriously?
00:40:32Can you keep your voice down?
00:40:34Oh, sorry.
00:40:36What, are you afraid that someone's gonna hear...
00:40:38About our perfect marriage?
00:40:45What are you hiding from me?
00:40:50Hey.
00:40:53Hey, you know that secret room...
00:40:55That you did it on me, not mine?
00:40:59I found it.
00:41:02Yeah?
00:41:07Hey, at least it's honest.
00:41:14Do you want to see it?
00:41:16Surely.
00:41:45Most people run.
00:41:47I'm not most people.
00:41:52So...
00:41:56This is what you're into?
00:41:58Among other things.
00:42:00And all of those...
00:42:03Specific requirements?
00:42:05We're meant to scare you off.
00:42:07I don't scare you, son.
00:42:09I'm starting to get that.
00:42:15Show me.
00:42:17Are you sure?
00:42:19Are you?
00:42:44Okay.
00:43:00So?
00:43:03So.
00:43:10Sir, Miss Chase is here.
00:43:12She says it's urgent.
00:43:14Jack, the team is flying to Tokyo and they need you there.
00:43:16Final deal points.
00:43:18Jess leaving in 13.
00:43:20I packed your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs.
00:43:24Lily, wait.
00:43:27Just go.
00:43:42Okay.
00:44:00Lily, I can explain.
00:44:03Can you?
00:44:07Guess some business can't wait.
00:44:13This whole thing is...
00:44:15Let me get this straight.
00:44:17You sleep with him
00:44:19and then you find a note from his ex.
00:44:21It's complicated.
00:44:23When isn't it with you?
00:44:25Look, maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little...
00:44:28What? A mistake?
00:44:30That you were right?
00:44:32Huh? Is that what you want to hear?
00:44:34No, I want you to be happy.
00:44:37And are you?
00:44:39I don't know what I am anymore.
00:44:41I mean, he paid for Mom's operation, so that's cool, but...
00:44:44I know.
00:44:46And the worst part is, I think I might actually be falling for...
00:44:54Lily?
00:44:56Stand back.
00:44:57What?
00:44:58Stand back, Megan.
00:45:03Kid, kid, kid, kid, kid.
00:45:05Kid, kid, kid, kid, kid.
00:45:13Go, motherfucker!
00:45:15Oh my God!
00:45:17Fuck you!
00:45:19Come on, let's go.
00:45:26What was that?
00:45:28Lessons with Jack.
00:45:30Jack taught you that?
00:45:32Yeah, yeah.
00:45:34You're just getting better by a minute.
00:45:36I know.
00:45:40You okay?
00:45:42Yeah.
00:45:44God, things were supposed to be so simple.
00:45:48Now what?
00:45:50I don't even know what's real anymore.
00:45:52Oh, honey.
00:45:54Kid.
00:46:04What?
00:46:22He always keeps the ledger on his desk.
00:46:35Lauren, I've known you since college.
00:46:38How could you?
00:46:44Eleven months.
00:46:46Almost a year.
00:46:49We're barely newlyweds anymore.
00:46:52Lily, I need to tell you something.
00:46:54I'm all ears.
00:46:56It's about the deal.
00:46:58About Lauren, Vivian.
00:47:00Well.
00:47:02If it isn't the happy couple.
00:47:04Oh, great.
00:47:06The press.
00:47:12I'm sorry.
00:47:14I'm sorry.
00:47:16I'm sorry.
00:47:18I'm sorry.
00:47:21I'm sorry.
00:47:26These aren't real.
00:47:28Oh, my sisters say they are very real.
00:47:30Story runs in 48 hours.
00:47:33Lily, this is what I was just about to tell you.
00:47:35I've been set up.
00:47:38Care to comment, Mr. Thorne?
00:47:42You know, it's funny.
00:47:44For a minute, I really believed.
00:47:47Lily, wait.
00:47:50They're not real.
00:47:53Tick tock, Mr. Thorne.
00:48:05Lily, wait.
00:48:08They're not real.
00:48:10You have to believe me.
00:48:12Like I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal?
00:48:15Like I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague.
00:48:20Like I believed that last night actually meant something.
00:48:23It did.
00:48:25Lily, what happened between us was-
00:48:27The transaction.
00:48:29That's all any of this ever was.
00:48:31That's not true.
00:48:33And you know it.
00:48:35Do I?
00:48:37Because from where I'm standing,
00:48:39you got everything that you wanted.
00:48:41You got a wife when you needed one.
00:48:43And a body when you wanted one.
00:48:45Lily, that's not it.
00:48:47Tell me I'm wrong.
00:48:49Is that something more going on here?
00:48:51With the business deal?
00:48:53And your inheritance?
00:48:55Anything more to explain?
00:49:03That's what I thought.
00:49:08You're a terrible person.
00:49:11If you leave now, you violate the contract.
00:49:14You get nothing.
00:49:16I don't care.
00:49:19I never cared about any of that.
00:49:39Hands up.
00:49:41Protect the face.
00:49:43No, don't.
00:49:45Go?
00:49:47No.
00:49:56Warren?
00:49:58Finally, look.
00:50:00About the Morrison deal.
00:50:02It's off.
00:50:04What do you mean it's off?
00:50:06All of it.
00:50:08The deal, the inheritance.
00:50:10I don't want any of it.
00:50:12Have you lost your freaking mind?
00:50:14I mean everything that we've worked for.
00:50:16I don't care.
00:50:47You can't just hide here forever.
00:50:49Watch me.
00:51:02Hey.
00:51:04What happened to the girl who would never back down?
00:51:07The one who quit her job because she didn't want to compromise?
00:51:10She played.
00:51:12Did she?
00:51:17If that's Jack...
00:51:19I'm sure that's just my oxygenarian neighbor who's a total drama queen.
00:51:23Watch.
00:51:25Gladys?
00:51:28Gladys, is that you?
00:51:30Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:38Sir.
00:51:40Coffee.
00:51:42I did some digging around like you asked, sir.
00:51:45You might want to see this.
00:51:51What am I looking at here?
00:51:53Wire transfers, shell companies.
00:51:55All leading back to Mr. Block.
00:51:57Warren.
00:51:59I knew it.
00:52:01You might want to see these too, sir.
00:52:03They'll illuminate things even more.
00:52:08Son of a bitch.
00:52:10He's trying to steal the inheritance.
00:52:12He sure is.
00:52:14A series of cleverly placed shell companies.
00:52:17Although I suspect Ms. Chase's interests are not purely financial.
00:52:33Sir?
00:52:35They're threatening Lily and her sister.
00:52:37Then perhaps it's time we stopped playing their game.
00:52:40Give me everything you can about Warren.
00:52:42Every meeting, every call.
00:52:43Already compiled, sir.
00:52:45I had a feeling we might need this.
00:52:46Sir, what about the inheritance?
00:52:48Some things are worth more than money.
00:53:03You're calling back, Megan?
00:53:12Fuck.
00:53:43Oh, my God.
00:53:51I got us into this.
00:53:53I can get us out of this.
00:53:54Oh, I can do this.
00:53:56Oh, I can do this.
00:53:58Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.
00:54:03And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.
00:54:06If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:54:13Sign the papers.
00:54:15And this all goes away.
00:54:18Like those photos of you and me from that reporter suddenly went away.
00:54:25Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:54:28Don't they?
00:54:30I always knew you were soft.
00:54:32But this?
00:54:33Throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef?
00:54:36He's not throwing it away.
00:54:39He's giving it to us.
00:54:41All we need is a signature, Jack.
00:54:45You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:48Always have.
00:54:52I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:55Hmm.
00:54:57Wait.
00:55:12Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:18Remember your training.
00:55:21Protect your face.
00:55:25Megan!
00:55:26Lily!
00:55:30Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:33Come on.
00:55:35Come on.
00:55:37Come on.
00:55:40Come on.
00:55:42Come on.
00:55:46Of course it's a trap.
00:55:49The question is,
00:55:52what are you going to do about it?
00:55:54Lily!
00:55:58I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.
00:56:01Room 115.
00:56:03Lauren's called the police.
00:56:04Already done.
00:56:05But sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:56:07She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:56:14No, no, no, no.
00:56:17Lauren, she's there.
00:56:19Lily's there.
00:56:24Hold on, Lily. Hold on.
00:56:38Leave her alone.
00:56:40Shut up!
00:56:42Get away from my wife.
00:56:44Well, well.
00:56:46Our hero arrives.
00:56:49Don't do it, Jackie boy.
00:56:53I'm not some damsel in distress.
00:56:56That's my girl.
00:56:58Oh, I guess it is real love, huh?
00:57:18That's for my sister.
00:57:20You son of a bitch.
00:57:23Lily.
00:57:27Lily.
00:57:28About everything.
00:57:30The photos.
00:57:31Vivian.
00:57:33Now? Seriously?
00:57:35I love you.
00:57:37Not for any inheritance.
00:57:39Not for any deal.
00:57:41Just you.
00:57:45I know.
00:57:53You, stay right there.
00:57:55Come on, cover me.
00:58:07What the hell?
00:58:11This isn't...
00:58:12Possible?
00:58:16And I wouldn't put money on how well that's gonna go.
00:58:18Sign the papers.
00:58:20Yeah, sign the papers.
00:58:22Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:58:24That proves nothing.
00:58:26I think it might prove something.
00:58:27Yeah, and those photos that you planted?
00:58:29Maybe use better AI next time.
00:58:31You can't.
00:58:32Yes, they can.
00:58:34And you two are under arrest.
00:58:39You'll regret this, Jack.
00:58:40The inheritance, the...
00:58:41Are nothing compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:43You could have had it all, Jack.
00:58:47I do.
00:58:50I do.
00:58:55Yes, thank you.
00:58:57Thanks.
00:59:01Now that's a story.
00:59:07Here to twist the knife?
00:59:09Actually, I'm here to get it right.
00:59:13Where did you...?
00:59:14Lawrence sends his regards.
00:59:16Seems your butler is a little armchair investigative journalist.
00:59:20So, no scandal piece?
00:59:22Oh, there's definitely a scan.
00:59:25But not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:30That's...
00:59:32Actually accurate.
00:59:34I'm a reporter.
00:59:35Truth is kind of my thing.
00:59:37Though I must admit, I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.
00:59:42Yeah, neither did I.
00:59:45Story runs tomorrow.
00:59:47Catch you on the next scandal.
00:59:56The way about the inheritance...
00:59:57You really think I care about any of that now?
01:00:04Just take me home.
01:00:07Yes, dear.
01:00:15Slut's coming up.
01:00:17Must be a new record.
01:00:20It is for me.
01:00:22Any regrets?
01:00:24Only one.
01:00:27They didn't get your chef's special sooner.
01:00:29Could have saved us a lot of trouble.
01:00:31Yeah.
01:00:36Excuse me, sir.
01:00:37Miss Chen's article is out.
01:00:39How bad is it?
01:00:42How bad is it?
01:00:43Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.
01:00:46She's included the last bit you wanted put in.
01:01:00Jack Thorne announced plans.
01:01:03In a shocking turn of events,
01:01:04tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans
01:01:06to transform his inherited fortune into the city's largest culinary grant program.
01:01:12Surprised?
01:01:15But your inheritance is gone.
01:01:19My inheritance, yeah.
01:01:21But turns out selling a tech company can be quite profitable.
01:01:24You sold the company?
01:01:26Turns out some things are worth more than money.
01:01:36My turn.
01:01:37I don't know.
01:01:44Perfect, Julie and Danny.
01:01:45Keep them thin, okay? Just like that.
01:02:03This looks good on you.
01:02:05And who said there's no such thing as a happily ever after?
01:02:09Suckers.
01:02:10Can I get you your usual, sir?
01:02:13Depends.
01:02:15Did my wife make it?
01:02:17The very same wife that you married for business?
01:02:19Best business decision I ever made.
01:02:28Hang on.
01:02:36Voila.
01:02:41I'm the best chef in town.
01:02:44You're only saying that because you're contractually obligated.
01:02:48I think that contract expired.
01:02:51Good thing I signed a new one.
01:03:00We are gathered here today...
01:03:01No more business deals this time.
01:03:04Just love.
01:03:05Good.
01:03:07Because I have some terms off my own.
01:03:10First...
01:03:12You have to eat everything I cook.
01:03:14Done.
01:03:16Second...
01:03:18No more locked rooms.
01:03:21Without me in it.
01:03:24Is that all?
01:03:26Third...
01:03:28You have to mean it this time.
01:03:30I meant it the first time.
01:03:32Just didn't know yet.
01:03:34The rings?
01:03:36Actually...
01:03:42Is that...
01:03:43Something old.
01:03:44Something new.
01:03:46Something borrowed.
01:03:47Something...
01:03:50Not mine.
01:03:58For better or worse...
01:04:00For real this time.
01:04:03You make us the bride.
01:04:20So...
01:04:22Are you ready for your honeymoon?
01:04:25What are you...
01:04:28Lauren, tell me back.
01:04:35Mrs. Thorne, are you trying to negotiate new business terms?
01:04:39I don't know...
01:04:41Mr. Thorne.
01:04:45Can you handle them?
01:04:47I thought this wasn't about business anymore.
01:04:50How about you just shut up...
01:04:53And kiss your wife?
01:04:58No.
