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