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

01:18:45and we'll start
01:18:46packing up my things.

01:18:58Sure, come on in.
01:19:00Hi, cutie.

01:19:05Oh, no.

01:19:09Wait, what was that?

01:19:21I don't want it.
01:19:22Take it back.
01:19:23She said
01:19:24you might say that,
01:19:25but she said that
01:19:26it was very,
01:19:27very important.
01:19:28How important?
01:19:31I don't know,
01:19:32but she did say
01:19:33that it was something
01:19:34so important
01:19:35that she only trusted me
01:19:36to deliver it,
01:19:37so it must be a big deal.
01:19:42Shit.

01:20:24I didn't have
01:20:25any appointments
01:20:26scheduled for today.

01:22:09You are going to regret this.
01:22:10I promise you that.
01:22:16Jeez,

01:22:18I don't know, girl,
01:22:19but the way she wears that dress,
01:22:21she can step on me any day.
01:22:26See?
01:22:27I knew you could do it.
01:22:28I knew it.
01:22:30You know,
01:22:32your dad would be so proud of you.
01:22:45Dr. Westfall.
01:22:46Oh, hi, Ariel.
01:22:47Is surgery over?
01:22:48How did it go?
01:22:49Yes, we just finished.
01:22:50Um, there were complications.
01:22:52Complications?
01:22:53Yes, but
01:22:54we were able to work through them,
01:22:55and your mother's gonna be just fine.
01:22:58Really?
01:22:59Yeah, really, yes.
01:23:00In fact,
01:23:01they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:23:03She's gonna need to rest
01:23:04for a few hours,
01:23:05but when she wakes up,
01:23:06she's gonna feel better
01:23:07than she has in a long time.
01:23:09I can't thank you enough.
01:23:10I'm happy to help.
01:23:25Hey.
01:23:51Come in, come in!
01:23:54Welcome!
01:23:59Ariel!
01:24:01Mom, why didn't you let me out of bed?
01:24:03The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:24:06I know, I know,
01:24:07but I saw this cute guy through the window,
01:24:09and I got kind of excited.
01:24:13Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:24:15No, thank you, but thank you.
01:24:17Oh, thank you.
01:24:18Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:24:20Mom,
01:24:21do you mind giving us some privacy?
01:24:24Oh, of course.
01:24:28I'll just be right over here, don't mind me.
01:24:38I'm so, so sorry.
01:24:40I, uh,
01:24:42I understand why you did it.
01:24:45And you gave me the drive back,
01:24:47so there's no need to apologize.
01:24:49Thank you for everything.
01:24:53I don't even know where to start.
01:24:58I'm not looking for an apology.
01:25:01You're not?
01:25:02No.
01:25:04See, I'm still CEO, and I need an assistant.
01:25:08And you're kind of the best in town.
01:25:13I accept.
01:25:15And, uh,
01:25:17are you still looking for a girlfriend?
01:25:22Well, if you're open to it,
01:25:25I'd love to apply.
01:25:40I love you, Valentina.
01:25:42I mean, Ariel.
01:25:44That's gonna take some getting used to.
01:25:48There aren't any starry rooftop views here,
01:25:51but this is my special place.
01:25:55It's even better.
