00:01:07No!
00:01:08No!
00:01:09This is gonna cost a fortune to replace.
00:01:12You can have mine.
00:01:14No, I couldn't.
00:01:16Yeah, you could.
00:01:17I've seen you in class.
00:01:19You are brilliant.
00:01:21And you're gonna get way more use out of this than I ever would.
00:01:28Yeah.
00:01:33You wanna grab lunch?
00:01:36Or keep studying?
00:01:39Um, yeah.
00:01:41Yeah?
00:01:42Grab lunch.
00:01:43Yeah, great.
00:01:50When did you two get back from the honeymoon?
00:01:52Just an hour ago.
00:01:53And this was waiting for me when I got back.
00:01:56I got in, Daddy!
00:01:58The Young Architects Program in Paris.
00:02:00It's a dream come true!
00:02:02Huh.
00:02:03And when we get back, we're gonna rebuild this town.
00:02:08Together.
00:02:11Allie, get me some ice.
00:02:13Sure, Daddy.
00:02:18Are you two insane?
00:02:20Rebuild this town?
00:02:22This town is dying, and I want my daughter as far away from it as possible.
00:02:27But, sir, we have a plan.
00:02:30We even applied to adopt a child.
00:02:33Even more reason to end this now before you keep her trapped here forever.
00:02:37I promised Allie's mother before she passed away that I would take care of our daughter.
00:02:42She deserves more than this two-bit town, and quite frankly, she deserves more than you.
00:02:48But, sir, I love her more than anything.
00:02:51I promise I will always take care of her.
00:02:54And you think that's important?
00:02:57She's going to be a world-class architect.
00:03:00You, you're a local boy with a hammer.
00:03:04If you truly loved her, you'd let her go.
00:03:07Let her make something of herself!
00:03:10Deep down, you know I'm right.
00:03:13Here.
00:03:17This should be enough.
00:03:19I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:26I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:33For Mr. and Mrs. Craig Brody.
00:03:35We just got married.
00:03:37I got into an architecture program at Paris, and my new husband is coming with me.
00:03:42Actually, I'm not coming with you, Allie.
00:03:45What? Why?
00:03:47You think I want to just sit around while you study crumbling buildings?
00:03:52You're never going to be a real architect.
00:03:54The world is going to chew you up and spit you out,
00:03:57and it's going to be too pathetic for me to watch.
00:04:01Um, what, but, no, what about our plans?
00:04:07We were trying to start a family together.
00:04:10No, the last person I'd want to start a family with is you, Allie.
00:04:14I want a divorce.
00:04:17No, no, but where is this coming from?
00:04:21Hi, Craig baby.
00:04:23Are you seeing Trista now?
00:04:26Yeah, just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:04:30Craig, no, what?
00:04:35I thought you believed in me.
00:04:38Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:42Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:47Yes, but I'd like to change my ticket to one way.
00:04:57Miss Filner! Miss Filner!
00:04:59You were just recognized as Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:05:02and your company is taking the New York architecture scene by storm.
00:05:06What's next for you?
00:05:08Um, I don't know.
00:05:10Taking over the world?
00:05:12Well, you and your boyfriend, billionaire politician Ned Vogel,
00:05:15are quite the power couple. He must be so proud.
00:05:18I'm not doing any of this for man's approval.
00:05:20Well, word on the street is he's planning on proposing.
00:05:23You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
00:05:27The luckiest girl in the world?
00:05:29Right.
00:05:30Miss Filner!
00:05:41Oh my God.
00:05:47Allie Bildner, you are the most impressive woman I've ever met.
00:05:53You are my soulmate.
00:06:06Will you marry me?
00:06:10Will you marry me?
00:06:12Allie Bildner, I love you more than anything.
00:06:15You are my soulmate and the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:06:19Will you make me the luckiest man in the world and marry me?
00:06:22Allie? Allie?
00:06:25You're really leaving me to sweat here.
00:06:28And this suit is way too expensive for that.
00:06:31The most eligible bachelor in the country is proposing to me.
00:06:34So why am I thinking about Craig?
00:06:37He was a jerk and a liar and I need to move on with my life.
00:06:44Of course I'll marry you.
00:06:54This ring must have cost a fortune.
00:06:56You're so lucky.
00:06:58When's the wedding?
00:07:00Ned wants to get married as soon as possible.
00:07:03You know, Allie would love a hot tea.
00:07:08We have a problem.
00:07:09And that is?
00:07:11You're already married to a Craig Brody.
00:07:19He never signed the divorce papers?
00:07:24So you're still married?
00:07:26He was my high school sweetheart.
00:07:29We got married.
00:07:32But it didn't work out.
00:07:33I thought he had signed the divorce papers.
00:07:35You thought?
00:07:36Yes.
00:07:37Allie, the election is in six weeks.
00:07:39This could ruin my campaign.
00:07:41Just imagine the headlines.
00:07:42Senator's fiance, already a wife?
00:07:45I will get him to sign the papers.
00:07:47You better.
00:07:48Or there won't be a future for us, Allie.
00:07:53I gotta take this.
00:07:54It's my campaign manager.
00:07:56But this is important.
00:07:57Yeah, so is this.
00:08:00Clarence.
00:08:01What's going on, buddy?
00:08:02Talk to me.
00:08:07Motherfucker.
00:08:09Motherfucker.
00:08:27I never thought I'd hear from you again, hun.
00:08:34Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:37So, you really ended it with her.
00:08:40What does it look like?
00:08:42Yeah.
00:08:44She's really gone.
00:08:46Good.
00:08:47So, there's this romantic movie playing at Cinema 6.
00:08:50I thought me and you can go and watch.
00:08:52And we can cuddle.
00:08:54We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:08:57My heart still belongs to Allie.
00:09:00And it always will.
00:09:02I don't understand.
00:09:04Sometimes, when you truly love someone,
00:09:09you have to let them go.
00:09:11No matter how much it hurts.
00:09:16Thank you for your help.
00:09:24I hate you, Allie Brody!
00:09:27No!
00:09:32Your call has been forwarded to an automatic...
00:09:36Fine.
00:09:38You want me to come after you, Craig Brody?
00:09:42I will.
00:09:52Leave the bag. I'll be five minutes.
00:09:57Okay.
00:10:12It's been seven years, Craig Brody.
00:10:14And you broke my heart.
00:10:17Somehow, the piece is still beat for you.
00:10:25Allie!
00:10:27What?
00:10:28What are you doing here, Allie?
00:10:30Well, someone never signed the divorce papers,
00:10:33so we're still married.
00:10:35Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:38I can't sign them.
00:10:39You can't?
00:10:40It's complicated.
00:10:42Then let me make it simple.
00:10:44I'm supposed to get married to, God, the man of my dreams,
00:10:48in six weeks.
00:10:49Only, the funny thing is,
00:10:50my ex-husband never signed the divorce papers.
00:10:54You're engaged.
00:10:55Yes, Craig!
00:10:56Or did you think I would never move on from you?
00:10:59Sign the papers!
00:11:00I can't sign them.
00:11:02Why not?
00:11:03There's something I have to tell you.
00:11:05Mommy!
00:11:13I can't sign them.
00:11:15Why not?
00:11:16Because we have a daughter together,
00:11:19and I never told you.
00:11:21You're finally approved.
00:11:24After all this time.
00:11:27You even remember?
00:11:36You have reached a number that has been disconnected
00:11:38or is no longer in service.
00:11:41Mommy!
00:11:42I'm sorry, but I'm not your mommy.
00:11:46Yes, you are.
00:11:47I'm not your mommy.
00:11:49Yes, you are.
00:11:50You are my mommy.
00:11:52Tell her, Daddy.
00:11:53Uh...
00:11:54Uh, Craig?
00:11:55What is she talking about?
00:11:56Natalie, why don't you go grab the nets?
00:11:58Because I said we'd go catch bullfrogs, remember?
00:12:00Okay.
00:12:01Is Mommy coming with us?
00:12:02No, Mommy and Daddy need to have a chat.
00:12:04All right?
00:12:05Okay, Daddy.
00:12:09Want to tell me what the hell is going on?
00:12:12Well...
00:12:17Allie didn't come here to get back together.
00:12:19She came here to divorce me,
00:12:21and I have to let her move on.
00:12:28I tracked you down in the library in New York,
00:12:32and you were there with another guy.
00:12:36You looked happy.
00:12:38You looked free.
00:12:48Well?
00:12:49Um...
00:12:51You know kids.
00:12:53Act of imagination.
00:12:54She thinks every woman who comes on the farm is her mom.
00:12:57All right, listen, just leave the papers on the counter,
00:13:00and I'll sign them.
00:13:01I have a flight back to New York in three hours,
00:13:03and I am not leaving here without these papers signed.
00:13:06Well, I'm not signing them until I read them over first.
00:13:09Why, Craig?
00:13:11It's not like you have anything that I want.
00:13:13What do you have that I could possibly want?
00:13:16I'm ready, Daddy.
00:13:18Okay, um...
00:13:19I promise I'll sign them, okay?
00:13:21I know better than to trust your promises, Craig.
00:13:24I got one for you, too, Mommy.
00:13:26Oh, yeah.
00:13:27So, Miss Allie is going back to New York,
00:13:30so it's just gonna be you and me.
00:13:32Like always.
00:13:33Okay.
00:13:34I'm sorry.
00:13:35Just leave them in the living room.
00:13:37I'll sign them.
00:13:38No, no, don't.
00:13:39Come on.
00:13:41I'm sorry.
00:13:42I love you, mommy.
00:13:43Okay, puppy, never mind.
00:13:44Never mind, we had to put him to sleep.
00:13:46Can you please send Rapunzel back to him?
00:13:49Rapunzel?
00:13:50Rapunzel?
00:13:51Rapunzel's heart is beating very fast,
00:13:53so let's send her back to be confessed to study.
00:13:55Okay.
00:13:56By the way, since you're waiting to come back,
00:13:58I've decided to give you a new name.
00:14:00Oh, sorry.
00:14:01Oh, it's okay.
00:14:02Just what I wanted.
00:14:03I didn't expect much from you.
00:14:04daddy.
00:14:05Oh, it's okay.
00:14:06It's just something I never expected.
00:14:07What's the matter, we're on school break.
00:14:09No, no, wait.
00:14:15Oh, oh.
00:14:19Ugh.
00:14:21Ugh.
00:14:23Ugh.
00:14:25Ugh.
00:14:27Ugh.
00:14:29Ugh.
00:14:31Ugh.
00:14:33Ugh.
00:14:35Ugh.
00:14:37What happened?
00:14:39Daddy got bit by a big snake.
00:14:41Yeah.
00:14:43Oh.
00:14:45Cobra head?
00:14:51Daddy.
00:14:53You still remember how to draw out snake venom?
00:14:55Well, I haven't forgotten everything you taught me, Craig Brody.
00:15:03Here, keep the pressure on.
00:15:05Okay.
00:15:09Your daddy will be fine. I promise.
00:15:19Hold still.
00:15:21Alright.
00:15:23Keep the pressure on.
00:15:31So, your daughter.
00:15:33Mm-hmm.
00:15:35She looks about...
00:15:37Seven years old.
00:15:39So, she's Trista's?
00:15:41No, she's yours.
00:15:45She's yours.
00:15:47So, if she's not Trista's,
00:15:49how many other women were you sleeping with
00:15:51while we were together?
00:15:53I don't care if you were with the entire town.
00:15:55Just, um,
00:15:57sign the papers, Craig,
00:15:59and we can put this sham of marriage behind us.
00:16:01You've got to be kidding me.
00:16:03Where did they go?
00:16:05Daddy's had this photo in his nightstand
00:16:07for seven years,
00:16:09which means he still loves her.
00:16:11And if they loved each other once,
00:16:13they can love each other again.
00:16:15They just need another chance.
00:16:27Where are the divorce papers?
00:16:29I'll look.
00:16:38I will check into the Pequoy
00:16:40in fortnight.
00:16:42And we can look for the divorce papers tomorrow.
00:16:44The Pequoy closed years ago.
00:16:46There was always your father's.
00:16:48That's, um, not an option.
00:16:50The way she said that,
00:16:52did something happen
00:16:54between her and her father?
00:16:56Well,
00:16:58unless you want to stay outside,
00:17:00I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:05I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:09Fine.
00:17:11But I'm not staying in your room.
00:17:13Wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:15You can stay in my room
00:17:17with me and Lucy.
00:17:19There you go.
00:17:29Wow, I love your room.
00:17:31Thanks, my dad helped me decorate it.
00:17:42Okay, look.
00:17:46Oh, my God.
00:17:48I know it hasn't been easy
00:17:50trying to start a family,
00:17:52but one day
00:17:54the adoption will go through.
00:17:56We're gonna have that baby,
00:17:58and you will be
00:18:00the most amazing mom.
00:18:27Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:32That logo,
00:18:34it's from the adoption agency.
00:18:36Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:39That logo,
00:18:41it's from the adoption agency.
00:18:43Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:51I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:56♪
00:19:26♪
00:19:42I don't think I haven't seen her before.
00:19:45Daddy?
00:19:47Oh, God.
00:19:51Do you know where McHaley went?
00:19:53Uh, no.
00:19:55I don't think I haven't seen her.
00:19:57Do you think she left us, daddy?
00:19:59You know what?
00:20:01Just give me five minutes,
00:20:03and I'll help you look, okay, sweetie?
00:20:05Okay, daddy.
00:20:09Ow!
00:20:11Oh, God.
00:20:26Craig,
00:20:28I'm engaged to someone else.
00:20:31You're not so married to me.
00:20:36I don't come this good
00:20:38anywhere else here.
00:20:44I should go.
00:20:56Hey.
00:20:58Hey.
00:21:00So, I found the divorce papers.
00:21:04Natalie!
00:21:06I think she wants to keep us married.
00:21:09Would that be such a bad thing?
00:21:15Hello!
00:21:17I brought scones!
00:21:20What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:23What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:28Craig and Trista are still together?
00:21:30I mean...
00:21:32Hi, baby.
00:21:34I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
00:21:36What a pleasant surprise.
00:21:38Holly?
00:21:40Uh, excuse me.
00:21:44What the fuck are you doing here?
00:21:47It's none of your business.
00:21:49Actually, where Craig's concerned,
00:21:51it is.
00:21:53So, you and Craig
00:21:55are still together?
00:21:58We're not going anywhere together,
00:22:00Trista.
00:22:02My heart still belongs to Hallie,
00:22:04and it always will.
00:22:06Still together?
00:22:08Why, of course we're still together.
00:22:10We've been inseparable.
00:22:12Ever since that day at the airport,
00:22:14the day that Craig chose me over you.
00:22:16Don't tell me you've forgotten.
00:22:19How could I?
00:22:22It was the worst day of my life.
00:22:24Oh, sorry to hear that.
00:22:26Because it was a pretty good day for me.
00:22:28I'm sure it was.
00:22:30Listen, if you're here to win Craig back,
00:22:32it's too late.
00:22:34Because I'm pretty sure he's planning on proposing to me.
00:22:36Any day now.
00:22:38So I need you to get your skinny little ass
00:22:40out of my town. Okay?
00:22:42Come here.
00:22:44Take a pastry for the road.
00:22:46Try this.
00:22:50Eat it.
00:22:52Because it's the closest you'll get to
00:22:54tasting Craig's mouth ever again.
00:22:58Oh my god!
00:23:02You New York bitch!
00:23:04Oh my god!
00:23:10You think you can just
00:23:12waltz back in here and pick up
00:23:14where you left off?
00:23:16Craig will always choose me over you.
00:23:22What the hell is going on?
00:23:24My ankle! My ankle!
00:23:28That crazy bitch!
00:23:30Like I said,
00:23:32he will always choose me over you.
00:23:34Are you okay?
00:23:36Why are you asking her?
00:23:38I'm the one who's injured.
00:23:40All I did was offer her a scone
00:23:42and then she called it dog food
00:23:44and then she kicked me.
00:23:48Poor little thing.
00:23:50You got scone all over you.
00:23:52It's okay, Hallie. I forgive you.
00:23:54Even if you did break my leg.
00:23:56I didn't touch you.
00:23:58You need to put your petty jealousy aside.
00:24:00Craig divorced you for a reason.
00:24:02Our coming back here
00:24:04to beg for him back is just
00:24:06pathetic.
00:24:08Actually,
00:24:10I didn't divorce Hallie.
00:24:12She's still my wife.
00:24:14What?
00:24:16Hallie is still
00:24:18my wife. Which means you just
00:24:20insulted her in her own house.
00:24:22So please leave
00:24:24Trista. Wait baby, this was just
00:24:26one big misunderstanding.
00:24:28You heard my daddy. Get out of our house
00:24:30before we call the cops.
00:24:34Oh my god, ew. What is that disgusting creature?
00:24:36I'm gonna vomit.
00:24:38Good job, Lucy.
00:24:40You know what? I should go.
00:24:42Hallie.
00:24:46It was nice meeting you, daddy.
00:24:50I'm sorry.
00:24:56Lulu.
00:24:58Call me back.
00:25:00Hallie.
00:25:02You know, I never understood
00:25:04why you left me for Trista.
00:25:06Of all people, you knew I couldn't
00:25:08stand her. That's why I
00:25:10did it. Because I knew
00:25:12it would hurt you the most.
00:25:14God, seeing her again
00:25:16just reminded me of the
00:25:18worst day of my life.
00:25:20Hallie,
00:25:22there's something I need to tell you about Trista.
00:25:26I don't want to talk about Trista anymore, okay?
00:25:28I have to take this.
00:25:30Lulu, can you email me another copy of the
00:25:32divorce papers ASAP?
00:25:34Another copy? What happened to the originals?
00:25:36Uh, it's a
00:25:38long story.
00:25:40Can you do it?
00:25:42It's Saturday.
00:25:44City Hall's closed until Monday.
00:25:46You're gonna need a certified copy.
00:25:48I think you're gonna have to stay the week in there, boss.
00:25:50I hope that's not a big problem.
00:25:52No.
00:25:54Of course not.
00:25:56Well, looks like I am staying until Monday
00:25:58until I can get a new copy of the divorce papers.
00:26:00God, I don't have anything.
00:26:02Not a change of clothes, not even a toothbrush.
00:26:04You can just go look at the store.
00:26:06Okay.
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:10Hey, Miss Hallie is staying.
00:26:12...
00:26:28Stop looking at him like that,
00:26:30Hallie. You can't have
00:26:32feelings for him.
00:26:34Even if he is
00:26:36your husband.
00:26:42I can't
00:26:44believe how bad
00:26:46the town looks.
00:26:48When the factory closed,
00:26:50half the stores went with it.
00:26:52At least Martha's Diner is still here.
00:26:54Martha Mae makes
00:26:56the best burgers in the world.
00:26:58Yeah.
00:27:00Remember our crazy dream
00:27:02to fix this place up?
00:27:04Of course I do.
00:27:06So, you probably
00:27:08have big plans after graduation.
00:27:10I'm applying
00:27:12to an architecture program in Paris.
00:27:14I doubt I'll get in, though.
00:27:16It's really competitive.
00:27:18Of course you will. I mean,
00:27:20they'd be fools not to take you.
00:27:22You think so?
00:27:24Oh, yeah, I know so.
00:27:26Well, after that, I want to come back here.
00:27:28Fix this town up.
00:27:30I am pretty good with a hammer.
00:27:32I need an assistant.
00:27:34How about a partner?
00:27:36Sounds perfect.
00:27:38Man, I could really
00:27:40go for a burger right now.
00:27:42I have an idea.
00:27:44Where are you
00:27:46taking me, Craig Brody?
00:27:50A picnic.
00:27:52Just like old times.
00:27:54Allow me.
00:27:56Allow me.
00:28:04I hate you, Hallie!
00:28:12Wow, it's just like in high school.
00:28:14Still looks the same, doesn't it?
00:28:16And
00:28:18feels the same.
00:28:20I love you, Hallie Bildner.
00:28:22I want you to know
00:28:24I will never,
00:28:26ever hurt you.
00:28:28I'm so sorry for hurting you, Hallie.
00:28:32Natalie and I
00:28:34were supposed to eat these on our
00:28:36fishing trip.
00:28:38I don't think she'll forgive me.
00:28:42Triangles?
00:28:44Just what you told me.
00:28:46It's Natalie's favorite way to eat them, too.
00:28:48Oh, I have to take this.
00:28:50Hey.
00:28:52The press wants to know why we haven't been
00:28:54seen together. They think we broke up.
00:28:56You need to get back here right now.
00:29:02I can't yet.
00:29:04I need to get new divorce papers
00:29:06and the city hall is closed until Monday.
00:29:08New divorce papers? What?
00:29:10Your location says you're at your old high school.
00:29:12What the hell is going on?
00:29:14It's complicated.
00:29:16No, it is not
00:29:18complicated.
00:29:20Look, I am pulling in a favor
00:29:22from the governor.
00:29:24We're going to get those papers expedited
00:29:26and we're going to force that husband of yours
00:29:28into signing them if we have to.
00:29:30I need you on the next flight back in an hour.
00:29:32An hour?
00:29:34Yeah. That's not going to be a problem, is it?
00:29:38Of course not.
00:29:44I have to go.
00:29:46You wouldn't mind
00:29:48taking me to the airport, would you?
00:29:50Of course not.
00:30:00Just sign the papers
00:30:02when you get them, Craig.
00:30:04It's the least you can do.
00:30:06This is my last chance to tell her
00:30:08the truth.
00:30:10Well,
00:30:12goodbye, I guess.
00:30:14No, Craig.
00:30:16I'm done waiting.
00:30:18It's time for me to move on.
00:30:24Hello?
00:30:26What?
00:30:28Are you sure?
00:30:30Okay.
00:30:32It's my father.
00:30:34He's had a stroke.
00:30:36He's at the community hospital.
00:30:38Come on. I'll drive you.
00:30:40Unless you're getting
00:30:42on that flight.
00:30:44No. Of course not.
00:30:46Good. Come on.
00:30:50What's going on?
00:30:52The neighbor found him this morning on the lawn.
00:30:54Hallie, I didn't expect to see you here.
00:30:56Is he going to be okay?
00:30:58We're doing the best we can, but it's
00:31:00difficult considering his condition.
00:31:02His condition?
00:31:04Your father is dying, Hallie,
00:31:06of kidney failure.
00:31:08How long does he have?
00:31:10A couple weeks.
00:31:12Maybe a month.
00:31:14I hope you're planning on sticking around this time.
00:31:16Excuse me.
00:31:22I had no idea.
00:31:24You didn't?
00:31:26When's the last time you saw him?
00:31:30Seven years ago.
00:31:38Hallie.
00:31:40Craig's divorcing me.
00:31:42He's been cheating on me.
00:31:44I knew that bastard wasn't
00:31:46good enough for you.
00:31:48But at least you found out before he followed you to Paris.
00:31:50No, I'm not going to
00:31:52Paris. I can't get on that plane.
00:31:54What?
00:31:56Craig was right. I'm not
00:31:58a real architect.
00:32:00Everyone's going to laugh at me.
00:32:02You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:04But, Daddy, I...
00:32:06In fact, now you'll be a laughingstock.
00:32:08You'll be a divorced loser.
00:32:10No one will want you. Not Craig.
00:32:12Not even me.
00:32:16Daddy.
00:32:18You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:20I never want to see you again.
00:32:22You are a disgrace.
00:32:24I know.
00:32:34Nobody's ever been so mean to me.
00:32:38Except you.
00:32:40That is...
00:32:42God, it's like the two of you were in cahoots.
00:32:44Should I tell her that we were?
00:32:48If I tell her the truth,
00:32:50she'll never forgive her dying father.
00:32:52It didn't work out for the best, though.
00:32:54I mean, look at the life
00:32:56you've built for yourself.
00:32:58You deserve more than this small town.
00:33:00You and my father
00:33:02certainly made it easy to leave.
00:33:06What's going on?
00:33:08The hour of grave has been happening for weeks.
00:33:14Natalie?
00:33:16Daddy.
00:33:18I'm scared. It's dark
00:33:20There's someone outside.
00:33:22I'll be right there. Keep the doors locked.
00:33:24I have to go.
00:33:26I'm coming with you.
00:33:28I'm coming with you.
00:33:32Natalie?
00:33:34Oh my God.
00:33:36Oh my God.
00:33:40I was so scared.
00:33:42It's okay.
00:33:44It's okay. You're okay.
00:33:46Must have been raccoons
00:33:48broken through the window.
00:33:50Probably those scones, huh?
00:33:52Yeah.
00:33:54I'm so sorry for leaving you alone for so long.
00:33:56Oh, it's my fault.
00:33:58No, I was happy to help, but
00:34:00I think you missed your flight.
00:34:04So you're saying we can watch a movie together?
00:34:10I guess we can.
00:34:14Miss Haley,
00:34:16come closer.
00:34:20Daddy,
00:34:22come closer.
00:34:26Isn't this great? Just the three of us.
00:34:32This blanket always makes my daddy fall asleep.
00:34:46Oh my God.
00:35:02Oh my God.
00:35:10I love you,
00:35:12Haley Brody.
00:35:14Why does this feel so
00:35:16right?
00:35:18He's still my husband
00:35:20and I know
00:35:22every freckle on his body,
00:35:24but no,
00:35:26I'm divorcing him
00:35:28and marrying someone else.
00:35:34Oh my God.
00:35:36Oh my God.
00:35:38Oh.
00:35:42Haley.
00:35:46Mommy and Daddy,
00:35:48I made breakfast.
00:35:56Do you like it? I made pancakes.
00:35:58They are
00:36:00excellent, sweetie.
00:36:02Mm-hmm.
00:36:04This is what families do. They eat breakfast together.
00:36:08What's up?
00:36:16There's some stupid
00:36:18birthday invitation. All the kids
00:36:20from school will be there, but I'm not going.
00:36:22Why not?
00:36:24Because everyone always
00:36:26says if I had a mom,
00:36:28she'd help me pick up better gifts.
00:36:30And they say I'm just a momless loser.
00:36:32You are not
00:36:34a momless loser, Natalie.
00:36:36And don't let anyone make you feel
00:36:38less than you are.
00:36:42I grew up without a mom too, you know.
00:36:44And it was
00:36:46hard, but
00:36:48I was always able to rely on my dad,
00:36:50just like you can.
00:36:54And by the way,
00:36:56your dad
00:36:58is worth a thousand mommies.
00:37:00That's true. She checked.
00:37:02So go to that
00:37:04party with your head held high.
00:37:06No one can take your power from you
00:37:08unless you let them.
00:37:12Okay, Miss Allie.
00:37:14I'll go to the party. Thanks.
00:37:20Oh, no.
00:37:24Excuse me.
00:37:26I have to take this.
00:37:28I see you got my messages.
00:37:30Delete that photo, Trista.
00:37:32Oh, which one?
00:37:34Because I have plenty.
00:37:38What's the problem?
00:37:40A rich fiancé isn't enough for you,
00:37:42so you have to come back and seduce your husband too.
00:37:44I didn't come here to get back
00:37:46with Craig, Trista.
00:37:48I came here to divorce him.
00:37:50Really?
00:37:52Then prove it.
00:37:54Walk away now and leave this town for good.
00:37:56Otherwise,
00:37:58these photos
00:38:00will go to the senator.
00:38:02I could ruin you,
00:38:04Allie,
00:38:06so don't mess with my life
00:38:08and I won't mess with yours.
00:38:16Hey.
00:38:18Everything okay?
00:38:20Fine.
00:38:22Who were you talking to?
00:38:24Oh, my fiancé's lawyer.
00:38:26He'll be by with new divorce papers.
00:38:30I have to go.
00:38:32Right now?
00:38:34Yes. I'm sorry, but yes.
00:38:36Can you call me a cab?
00:38:38Call me a cab, Craig.
00:38:40Okay.
00:38:42My plan didn't work, Lucy.
00:38:44I guess Mommy isn't in love
00:38:46with Daddy after all.
00:38:54Martha May?
00:38:56Allie Builder!
00:38:58As I live and breathe!
00:39:00Oh, how are you so skinny?
00:39:02I thought that city of yours
00:39:04had a restaurant on every block.
00:39:06Oh, well, they do, but none of them
00:39:08make a burger as good as you do.
00:39:10Oh, well, that's nice to know
00:39:12I'll be remembered fondly, at least.
00:39:14What? Don't tell me you're shutting down.
00:39:16Yeah, I don't have a choice.
00:39:18Rent's gone up and I can't afford the place anymore.
00:39:20No, no, there must be
00:39:22something I can do.
00:39:24Mayor Diggle, shut it down.
00:39:26Mayor Diggle.
00:39:30Dirk!
00:39:32I can't believe you're shutting down Martha's diner.
00:39:34It's a town institution.
00:39:36Is it? Or are you just upset about it
00:39:38because you and your boyfriend Craig
00:39:40used to go there?
00:39:42This isn't high school anymore, Dirk,
00:39:44and this isn't a game.
00:39:46What is it going to take for you to leave the diner alone?
00:39:48Well, you know I've always
00:39:50liked you, so...
00:39:52How about
00:39:54you and me handle this privately?
00:39:56I'll pay you.
00:39:58Twelve months rent, in advance.
00:40:02Listen, you think I want your money?
00:40:04No, I had something more interesting in mind.
00:40:06You! You're disgusting!
00:40:08Listen,
00:40:10Craig was here to save you last time,
00:40:12but he's not here now.
00:40:14Looks like you're all alone, Hallie.
00:40:16Get off!
00:40:18I don't even want it!
00:40:26Well, you two are
00:40:28under arrest
00:40:30for assaulting the mayor.
00:40:32You know the drill.
00:40:34This is just like how I used to arrest you
00:40:36when you was back in high school.
00:40:44Wife, huh?
00:40:48Some habits are hard to break.
00:40:52God, this is so not funny.
00:40:54Ned is running for senator.
00:40:56What will this look like if anyone finds out?
00:40:58And who's going to check a county jail
00:41:00in a nowhere town?
00:41:02I should have never come back here.
00:41:04I should have sent my assistant.
00:41:06I should have hired a lawyer!
00:41:08Then why didn't you?
00:41:10I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:12In your dreams.
00:41:14I have moved on to bigger and better things.
00:41:16That neighborhood you shut down
00:41:18put 6,000 people out of work.
00:41:20And the complex I built brought back
00:41:2210,000 jobs.
00:41:24Yeah, for Ivy Leaguers and corporate types.
00:41:26What about the blue collars?
00:41:28Hmm? What about the people you came from?
00:41:30I've tried to forget where I came from.
00:41:32Okay?
00:41:34Isn't that what you wanted when you told me I don't belong here?
00:41:36I shouldn't have said that.
00:41:38No, you were right.
00:41:40I'm not the same girl you married.
00:41:42I've built a life.
00:41:44I've built a career.
00:41:46I should thank you.
00:41:48Because I couldn't have done it without you.
00:41:50Alright, lovebirds.
00:41:52Your bail's been posted.
00:41:54You're free to go.
00:41:56Bail? By who?
00:41:58Hey, Hals.
00:42:02Ned.
00:42:08Hey, Hals.
00:42:10Ned.
00:42:12So,
00:42:14you must be Craig Rohde.
00:42:16The man who couldn't even sign a simple
00:42:18divorce paper.
00:42:20And you must be Ned Vogel.
00:42:22The man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:24Yeah, well, my money
00:42:26got you out of jail, didn't it?
00:42:28I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:30Well, you can think of it as the government
00:42:32working for you.
00:42:34You can shove your government up your silver spoon.
00:42:36Guys, please stop.
00:42:38No, you're right.
00:42:40I'm not here to argue with a man who's
00:42:42holding onto the past.
00:42:46We got the divorce papers expedited.
00:42:48So, you can sign them, Craig.
00:42:52This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:42:56Can I really divorce Hallie
00:42:58without her knowing about her own daughter?
00:43:02Sign the papers.
00:43:04Or we take you to court.
00:43:06But I gotta tell you,
00:43:08my lawyer's a shark.
00:43:10Say something, Hallie.
00:43:12Say something to
00:43:14stop this.
00:43:16Sign the papers, Craig.
00:43:18Let me go.
00:43:20It's
00:43:22the least you can do.
00:43:28Wonderful.
00:43:30We will get these filed
00:43:32at the town hall.
00:43:34And you will be divorced in an hour.
00:43:38This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:40It's time for you to finally
00:43:42move on with your life, Hallie.
00:43:46Well, are you coming?
00:43:48Yes,
00:43:50of course.
00:43:52Bye.
00:44:00That is who she ended up with.
00:44:02I always thought it'd
00:44:04be you.
00:44:06Sometimes things don't work
00:44:08out the way we want them to.
00:44:10Hallie,
00:44:12what were you thinking? Jail?
00:44:14Are you trying to
00:44:16ruin my campaign?
00:44:18No, this has nothing to do with you.
00:44:20You are gonna be
00:44:22my wife.
00:44:24Everything you do
00:44:26reflects on me.
00:44:28Now, are there
00:44:30any other skeletons I should know about?
00:44:36No.
00:44:40No.
00:44:42Nothing.
00:44:46This town,
00:44:48it's just how you described it.
00:44:50Low class,
00:44:52run down,
00:44:54depressing.
00:44:56It isn't that bad.
00:44:58Those were your words, Hallie.
00:45:00What's gotten into you?
00:45:02I don't know.
00:45:04Being back here.
00:45:06Should I remind you
00:45:08how lucky you are to have gotten out?
00:45:12Last signature, Miss Bilner,
00:45:14and you'll be free and clear to be the wife of a Senate.
00:45:26Okay.
00:45:28That's a no.
00:45:30Fair wages,
00:45:32fair pay,
00:45:34we want to be constructed.
00:45:36Let us through.
00:45:38No one gets in or out today.
00:45:40Town workers on strike.
00:45:42We need to get these filed.
00:45:44We have a flight to catch in 30 minutes.
00:45:46Sorry, we can't do it.
00:45:50There you are, Mommy.
00:45:54Mommy?
00:45:57I knew you wanted to leave without me, Mommy.
00:46:00Mommy?
00:46:02You two have a kid together?
00:46:04No, no, no, of course not.
00:46:06Natalie, come on, Miss Hallie has to go.
00:46:08No, no!
00:46:10I'm so sorry.
00:46:12I hate you! I hate both of you!
00:46:16Another reason why I'm glad I don't have kids.
00:46:18Look, we need to get these signed.
00:46:20What's it going to cost me to make it happen?
00:46:22Whoa!
00:46:24That's a city Senate official
00:46:26bribing a city employee.
00:46:30You see, I have my fair share of scandals,
00:46:32but this, this is bad.
00:46:36Hallie, I see you got a fancy new fiancé.
00:46:40What happened to your husband?
00:46:42Is he still locked away in jail?
00:46:44I think he means soon to be ex-husband.
00:46:46Ah.
00:46:48Looks like your father got what he always wanted.
00:46:50You and Craig finally divorced.
00:46:54What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:46:58What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:00Wait a minute.
00:47:02Craig never told you...
00:47:04Hey! Keep it down.
00:47:06Or I'll write you up for a noise violation.
00:47:08How about you pay us what we're owed
00:47:10and not waste our tax dollars
00:47:12on fancy new fire trucks
00:47:14and cocktail parties?
00:47:16Mayor Sullivan never would have done anything.
00:47:18All right, listen.
00:47:20Mayor Sullivan is not in charge anymore.
00:47:22Keep it down, all right?
00:47:24So please just keep it down.
00:47:26Fair wages, fair pay.
00:47:28Fair wages, fair pay.
00:47:30I'll sign that paper for you.
00:47:32Yeah, all right, good.
00:47:36Where's the rest of it?
00:47:38What?
00:47:40Well, I can't sign this without a custody agreement.
00:47:42A custody agreement?
00:47:44Sure, this child is just as much Hallie
00:47:46as she is Craig's.
00:47:48You lied to me.
00:47:50No, no, no, I didn't.
00:47:52No, I swear.
00:47:54How is this even possible?
00:47:56Well, she's adopted.
00:47:58I mean, I did the paperwork myself.
00:48:00You're listed as parent number one.
00:48:02Geez, I would have thought he would have told you about it by now.
00:48:04This is not good.
00:48:06A husband is one thing, but a child?
00:48:08If this gets out, I am sunk.
00:48:10Right. A messy custody battle
00:48:12never sits well with voters.
00:48:14Who said anything about a custody agreement?
00:48:16Hallie doesn't even want the kid, right, Hallie?
00:48:18I mean, you barely even know the child.
00:48:20She'll give up custody right now. Where do we sign?
00:48:22It's not that simple. In a case like this,
00:48:24when a child's involved, both parties
00:48:26have to attend a parenting class.
00:48:28Next one starts tomorrow.
00:48:30Tomorrow? I do not
00:48:32have time for this. I have to get back
00:48:34to New York before the press starts asking questions.
00:48:38Go.
00:48:40Go, I'll get this sorted out.
00:48:42Fine. Take care of this
00:48:44child and this marriage
00:48:46quickly and quietly.
00:48:54Hallie. No!
00:48:56You were just going to let me divorce you, never knowing that
00:48:58Natalie's my daughter?
00:49:00Shh.
00:49:08The adoption went through after
00:49:10you left.
00:49:12You didn't think I deserved to know?
00:49:14You could have called.
00:49:16Written anything. I tried.
00:49:18What?
00:49:22And you were there with another guy.
00:49:24You looked
00:49:26happy. You looked free.
00:49:28Seems you don't need me
00:49:30and Natalie anymore.
00:49:32And that's why you never told me that I had
00:49:34a daughter?
00:49:36You looked like you'd moved on.
00:49:40Moved on?
00:49:42It took me years to move on.
00:49:46And honestly,
00:49:50I don't know if I ever have.
00:49:52Forget it.
00:49:54It doesn't matter now anyway.
00:49:58Here.
00:50:02Parenting class.
00:50:06We need to take it in order to get divorced.
00:50:08Custody.
00:50:10Co-parenting.
00:50:12Legally, Natalie is just as much
00:50:14mine as she is yours.
00:50:16You haven't spent any time with her.
00:50:18You didn't raise her. I know.
00:50:20And whose fault is that?
00:50:24Class is at 8am. Don't be late.
00:50:30I knew Miss Hallie was my mommy.
00:50:32Mommy?
00:50:38Dad?
00:50:42Maya, what's going on?
00:50:50Daddy!
00:50:52He's okay.
00:50:54He's stabilized.
00:50:56Your old man's a fighter, Hallie.
00:50:58And clearly he's fighting
00:51:00to see you again.
00:51:02Fighting to see me?
00:51:04If anything,
00:51:06he'd be pissed to know I'm back.
00:51:08My dad hates me.
00:51:10That's not possible. Hallie, he talks
00:51:12about you all the time.
00:51:14He does?
00:51:16Yep. Every Monday and Thursday at dialysis.
00:51:18That's how I know about your
00:51:20fancy job
00:51:22and your fancy boyfriend.
00:51:24None of this makes any sense.
00:51:26Hallie, are you okay?
00:51:28Yeah.
00:51:30Today's just been...
00:51:32a lot.
00:51:34Maya, did you know
00:51:36that Natalie's
00:51:38my daughter?
00:51:42My shift ends in five minutes.
00:51:44Do you want to grab a drink?
00:51:48Craig has never revealed who Natalie's
00:51:50mother was, but
00:51:52he's never been with anyone since you,
00:51:54so we figured...
00:51:56He's never been with anyone since me?
00:51:58No, he left me
00:52:00for Trista. I saw him.
00:52:02Trista? She's been after him
00:52:04for years, sure, but he'd never touch her with a
00:52:06ten-foot pole.
00:52:08I don't understand.
00:52:10Just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:52:12Craig!
00:52:14No way.
00:52:24Excuse me, Maya.
00:52:26I need to get to the bottom of this.
00:52:36Good to see you, Hallie.
00:52:38I know the truth.
00:52:40You were never with Trista.
00:52:42So tell me the truth about everything.
00:52:44Right now.
00:52:50Play me for it.
00:52:52If you win,
00:52:54I'll tell you.
00:53:04Looks like big city living hasn't dulled your aim at all.
00:53:06No, if anything,
00:53:08it made me sharper.
00:53:12You two are playing like your lives depend on it.
00:53:20Well,
00:53:22kinda do.
00:53:28Oops.
00:53:32If you do that again,
00:53:34I might just have to take you right here on the table.
00:53:38Too bad.
00:53:40Too bad I'm engaged.
00:53:44What are you playing at, Hallie?
00:53:46I deserve the truth.
00:53:48Why?
00:53:50You came here to divorce me.
00:53:52What good would the truth do?
00:53:54I'll be the one to decide that.
00:53:56Now.
00:54:10Now.
00:54:12Bust up.
00:54:20You scratched.
00:54:22Oh.
00:54:24I win.
00:54:26Thank you, ladies.
00:54:28But I gotta go.
00:54:30I have an early start.
00:54:36Maybe I can find some
00:54:38clues in my father's room.
00:54:42Why didn't my father tell me he was sick?
00:54:44And why won't anyone just
00:54:46tell me the truth?
00:54:48Oh my god.
00:54:56This will always belong to Hallie.
00:54:58And so do my heart.
00:55:00What is this doing here?
00:55:08What was this doing in my father's bedroom?
00:55:10Uh, Hallie.
00:55:12Tell me, why was this in my father's room?
00:55:14Don't tell me you're about to propose, Hallie.
00:55:16Trista?
00:55:18What are you doing here?
00:55:20Surprise! I'm teaching the course.
00:55:22It's time for the two of you
00:55:24to get divorced.
00:55:26I mean, this is what you both want,
00:55:28right?
00:55:30Of course.
00:55:32Hallie, you are Natalie's
00:55:34mother after all.
00:55:36Yes, but she doesn't know it yet,
00:55:38so please, keep this between us.
00:55:40I'm sorry.
00:55:42I will always do you a favor, Craig.
00:55:44You know that.
00:55:46Okay, first topic.
00:55:48How to explain to your child
00:55:50why you're not together anymore.
00:55:52Uh, simple.
00:55:54Her father is a lying, manipulative jerk
00:55:56who hid the fact that I had a daughter
00:55:58for five years.
00:56:00Not to mention whatever other secrets he's keeping.
00:56:02And what would you have done
00:56:04if I'd come up to you in the library that day?
00:56:06Hallie, be honest.
00:56:08You're starting a new life somewhere else.
00:56:10Because you made me believe
00:56:12there was nothing left for me here.
00:56:14So what are you gonna do?
00:56:16You gonna take Natalie to New York?
00:56:18Maybe.
00:56:20She belongs here.
00:56:22Not in New York with
00:56:24central air and no pear.
00:56:26And I will be damned
00:56:28if I let Ned Vogel be my daughter's
00:56:30stepfather.
00:56:32Jealous, Craig. You know of all the things Ned is,
00:56:34he's never lied to me.
00:56:36Never torn my world apart without so much as an explanation.
00:56:38You want an explanation?
00:56:40Yeah.
00:56:42I'll give you one. I did lie to you that day
00:56:44when I told you that I didn't love you anymore.
00:56:50I'm done here.
00:56:52Wait.
00:56:54I knew it.
00:56:56You just came here and you ruined everything like I knew you would.
00:56:58Ruined what exactly?
00:57:00I know the truth, Trista.
00:57:02You and Craig were never together.
00:57:04And that's about
00:57:06to change, sweetie.
00:57:08Once those divorce papers are finalized,
00:57:10Craig will have no choice but to choose me.
00:57:12Besides, Natalie needs a
00:57:14mother.
00:57:16You want to be Natalie's mom.
00:57:18Well, not particularly.
00:57:20But I can pretend. At least until I send her off to
00:57:22boarding school.
00:57:24After all these years, her father and I deserve
00:57:26some alone time. I mean, don't you think?
00:57:28Don't you dare.
00:57:30Don't you dare.
00:57:34Go back to New York, Hallie.
00:57:36None of this concerns of you anymore.
00:57:38I think I'll go comfort your
00:57:40husband now.
00:57:42Aww.
00:57:44He looks upset.
00:58:00Let me out!
00:58:02Somebody!
00:58:06I'm so sorry about that.
00:58:08I didn't realize Hallie would try to
00:58:10provoke you like that.
00:58:12Oh, Hallie was right. I should have told her
00:58:14about Natalie. It was unfair.
00:58:16I need to apologize.
00:58:18Do you? Because you and I both know
00:58:20what Hallie would have chosen all those years ago.
00:58:22And it wouldn't have been you and Matt.
00:58:24I don't because I never gave her the chance.
00:58:26I did.
00:58:28What? All those years ago,
00:58:30I told her about Natalie.
00:58:36I... I don't understand.
00:58:38I care
00:58:40about you, Craig. And I
00:58:42would never ever lie to you.
00:58:44I told her that you had a daughter together.
00:58:46And she never even
00:58:48tried to contact you.
00:58:50Did she?
00:58:54I'm so sorry I didn't tell you
00:58:56before, but I was just trying to protect you.
00:58:58She said that the last thing that she
00:59:00wanted was a daughter with you.
00:59:02She said that?
00:59:04Yes. In fact,
00:59:06she said that she didn't want any kids at all.
00:59:08Hallie was born to be a mother.
00:59:10That's all she's ever wanted.
00:59:12Is it?
00:59:14This is from the judge.
00:59:16She's planning on giving up
00:59:18full custody. She's going to New York.
00:59:20She has no interest in fighting
00:59:22for you or Natalie.
00:59:24But I do.
00:59:32What are you
00:59:34doing? I'm just trying
00:59:36to help you move on, Craig.
00:59:38Hallie will never
00:59:40choose you. But I will.
00:59:42It's not going to happen,
00:59:44Trista. It's not.
00:59:46Natalie needs a mother.
00:59:48You know it, and I know it.
00:59:50You need to move on, Craig, and come back to reality.
00:59:52Let me out!
00:59:54Hallie?
00:59:56What did you
00:59:58do to her? Nothing!
01:00:00This was a mistake.
01:00:02Having you help me out all those years
01:00:04ago is the biggest regret of my life.
01:00:06It's never going to happen,
01:00:08no matter what happens with me and Hallie.
01:00:16You want to play it like that?
01:00:18So be it.
01:00:22Hi!
01:00:24I'd like to speak to
01:00:26Senator Ned Vogel, please.
01:00:32Are you okay?
01:00:34Don't.
01:00:36Why do you care, Craig?
01:00:38Is everything you tell me a lie?
01:00:40What? I saw you kissing
01:00:42Trista! Don't try and deny it.
01:00:44You told me you loved me.
01:00:46I don't believe
01:00:48a word you say. Hallie, please,
01:00:50please believe me, that was
01:00:52a mistake. The only mistake I
01:00:54ever made was coming back here.
01:00:56I don't know what I thought
01:00:58I'd find,
01:01:00but now I know.
01:01:02I dodged a bullet seven years ago.
01:01:08Hi! I'd like to inform
01:01:10Senator Ned Vogel that his
01:01:12perfect little fiancé is cheating
01:01:14on him with her husband.
01:01:16And don't worry,
01:01:18I have pictures to prove it.
01:01:22No, this isn't
01:01:24a prank phone call.
01:01:26I have proof.
01:01:30What? No, I'm not lying!
01:01:32Hello?
01:01:34Hello?
01:01:38I guess I'll just have to go to the New York Post with this one.
01:01:40You're buried, Hallie.
01:01:44Ned, hi.
01:01:46Hi. Hallie, great news.
01:01:48I just got off the phone with my lawyer.
01:01:50He said because you're giving up custody,
01:01:52parenting class is unnecessary, so
01:01:54you can sign the papers today
01:01:56and you'll be divorced by tomorrow.
01:01:58Tomorrow? Yeah.
01:02:00I already got us scheduled for a
01:02:02gala Saturday, a fundraising brunch
01:02:04on Sunday. I can't wait to get you back
01:02:06on my arm in that pretty little black dress of yours.
01:02:08Me either.
01:02:12Well, you don't sound very happy.
01:02:14What about Natalie?
01:02:16My daughter?
01:02:18What are you going to do, Hallie? Bring the kid with you to New York?
01:02:20Co-parent with your ex?
01:02:22No.
01:02:24Look, if we want to have a baby,
01:02:26we can have a baby. Together.
01:02:28But I'm not going to raise someone else's
01:02:30kids, okay? Just sign over the
01:02:32custody and divorce him.
01:02:34Today.
01:02:36There's nothing there for you anymore, Hallie.
01:02:38Not anymore.
01:02:41You're right.
01:02:43There is nothing left for me here.
01:02:45Hallie...
01:02:47I'm giving up custody.
01:02:49And going back to New York.
01:02:51You win, Craig.
01:02:53Win?
01:02:55You never wanted me to be a part of Natalie's life.
01:02:57Or yours.
01:02:59Well, congratulations.
01:03:01You got your wish.
01:03:03Hallie, please just hear me out. That's not the full story.
01:03:05There is nothing that you can say that will change anything.
01:03:07The damage is done.
01:03:10Let's just...
01:03:12sign the papers and end this marriage.
01:03:16Party one agrees to give up
01:03:18full custody, correct?
01:03:21That's right.
01:03:23Okay, so regarding the parental rights of
01:03:25Natalie Hallie Brody...
01:03:27What? Hallie?
01:03:29Her middle name is Hallie?
01:03:31She's your daughter, too.
01:03:33She's your daughter, too.
01:03:35Mommy!
01:03:37Oh, my...
01:03:41She belongs here.
01:03:43I'm not going to raise someone else's kid.
01:03:47Ma'am.
01:03:49Please sign on the dotted line.
01:03:55It's really over.
01:04:07Now for the
01:04:09divorce papers.
01:04:19Is that it?
01:04:21Yes.
01:04:23Congratulations.
01:04:25In 24 hours, you'll be ex-husband and wife.
01:04:27It was nice being married to you,
01:04:29Hallie Bouldner.
01:04:33Wish I could say the same, Craig Brody.
01:04:35Lulu.
01:04:37I'll be back in the city by tonight.
01:04:39Rebook my meetings and
01:04:41get me a pedicure appointment.
01:04:43Thank God. I thought you were never coming back.
01:04:45But then I remembered.
01:04:47You're Hallie Bouldner.
01:04:49Your work is your life.
01:04:51Hi, life.
01:04:53Right.
01:04:57Oh.
01:04:59By the way,
01:05:01did you ever do that favor I asked?
01:05:03Oh, you mean that favor where I went to
01:05:0550 different toy stores all over the city
01:05:07just for one special kid?
01:05:09Yes.
01:05:11I did.
01:05:13Which, might I ask,
01:05:15who is this special child?
01:05:17My daughter.
01:05:19Who is this special child?
01:05:23My daughter.
01:05:29A monster truck 300?
01:05:31This is the best
01:05:33present ever!
01:05:35Who's next?
01:05:37Damn, why don't you get Natalie's
01:05:39present over with? We all know it's gonna be
01:05:41the worst.
01:05:43Here it is! Look how tiny it is!
01:05:45Catch!
01:05:49Oop!
01:05:51It's probably a gum wrapper.
01:05:53Poor Happy Denapple.
01:05:55She's so poor she probably can't
01:05:57afford anything else.
01:05:59Guys, be
01:06:01nice. At least it's not a
01:06:03tree branch like last time.
01:06:05It was a
01:06:07walking stick and my dad made it.
01:06:09That's right, your dad.
01:06:11Because where's your mom again?
01:06:13That's right, nowhere!
01:06:15Oops!
01:06:17Hope it wasn't
01:06:19fragile.
01:06:23It's a
01:06:25friendship bracelet.
01:06:27Friendship? We're not friends.
01:06:29That's so sad.
01:06:31I can't believe
01:06:33you actually invited this freak
01:06:35to your party. My mom
01:06:37forced me to. If you had a mom,
01:06:39she'd help you pick out a real
01:06:41present, not this dumb piece of string.
01:06:43I do have a mom.
01:06:45Then where
01:06:47is she? She lives in New York
01:06:49and she's a powerful CEO.
01:06:51Why do you make up a story like that?
01:06:53If your mom was a powerful CEO,
01:06:55she would give you better gifts than this!
01:06:59Momless loser!
01:07:01Momless loser!
01:07:03Momless loser!
01:07:05Momless loser!
01:07:07Momless loser!
01:07:09Momless loser!
01:07:11Momless loser!
01:07:13Momless loser!
01:07:15Nobody can take your power away from you
01:07:17except you. Don't ever
01:07:19forget that. You were wrong, Mommy.
01:07:21And you left me.
01:07:23You know what? Forget this!
01:07:33Hi, I have a delivery for
01:07:35Sam Baker. That's me!
01:07:37These
01:07:39must be for my
01:07:41uncle. He's
01:07:43super rich!
01:07:45Where do you think you're going?
01:07:47I never should've come. I'm getting out of here.
01:07:49Actually, you're gonna
01:07:51stay here and watch what real
01:07:53presents look like.
01:07:55Yeah, and maybe next time you'll come up with
01:07:57something better than a stupid piece of
01:07:59string. A pickleball racket?
01:08:01Nintendo Switch?
01:08:03A build-your-own-bar kit?
01:08:05An e-scooter?
01:08:07A monster truck 400?
01:08:09These must
01:08:11cost a fortune!
01:08:13Uncle Rick
01:08:15is the best!
01:08:17Actually, these gifts are from Natalie's
01:08:19mom.
01:08:23My mommy. She does
01:08:25love me. Wait!
01:08:27This has to be a prank! Natalie
01:08:29is just lying about her mom!
01:08:31She's a real! Well, someone very real
01:08:33signed for these purchase orders herself.
01:08:35All $15,000 worth of them.
01:08:37$15,000?!
01:08:39How rich is she?!
01:08:41Like I said, she's a powerful
01:08:43CEO in New York, and
01:08:45she's too busy to care what you
01:08:47small-town losers think.
01:08:49Wait, no! Where are you going?
01:08:51It's okay. You can sit next to me.
01:08:53No! Sit next
01:08:55to me! I want to be friends
01:08:57with you if you pay me.
01:08:59Enjoy the presents, loser.
01:09:03And your cake is drying
01:09:05by the way!
01:09:11Daddy.
01:09:13I don't know
01:09:15if you can hear me, but I wanted
01:09:17you to know I'm
01:09:19going back to New York. Okay?
01:09:21You were right about Greg.
01:09:23He's
01:09:25a liar and a cheat.
01:09:27But the man I'm about to marry?
01:09:29He's
01:09:31rich.
01:09:33Handsome.
01:09:35Successful.
01:09:37Exactly.
01:09:39The kind of man you would've wanted for me.
01:09:41I'll miss you.
01:09:43Okay?
01:09:47You're running towards something.
01:09:49Back to your life.
01:09:51Go! Your father's in good hands.
01:09:53I promise.
01:09:55Would you look after Natalie for me?
01:09:57Of course.
01:10:13Hi.
01:10:15I think he was building her first classes to the left.
01:10:17Thank you so much.
01:10:19Mommy!
01:10:21Natalie! What are you doing here?
01:10:23I'm coming with you to New York!
01:10:27The flight departs in one minute.
01:10:33Come on, Natalie.
01:10:35I'll take you home.
01:10:41Oh!
01:10:43Thank God! Where'd you find her?
01:10:45She was at the airport.
01:10:47Airport!
01:10:49I wanted to go to New York City with Mommy.
01:10:51She knows.
01:10:53Greg.
01:10:55Natalie,
01:10:57can you give us a minute?
01:10:59Okay, Daddy.
01:11:01Thank you for bringing her back.
01:11:03Of course.
01:11:05But before I go,
01:11:07I have a favor to ask you.
01:11:09Anything.
01:11:11Find Natalie a mother.
01:11:13Just make sure it's not
01:11:15Trista.
01:11:17Okay?
01:11:19Okay.
01:11:21Bye.
01:11:25Bye.
01:11:47After all these years,
01:11:49he never gave up on us.
01:11:51After all these years,
01:11:53he never gave up on us.
01:11:59You probably could've
01:12:01come up with something better.
01:12:03No, it's perfect.
01:12:07How long have you been
01:12:09working on this?
01:12:11A few years now.
01:12:13Ever since I left?
01:12:15Maybe.
01:12:19But why?
01:12:21Why?
01:12:23I couldn't let our dream die
01:12:25just because our marriage did.
01:12:27That crazy dream?
01:12:29That crazy dream?
01:12:31Doesn't look so crazy anymore, does it?
01:12:33No, it doesn't.
01:12:35Ellie,
01:12:37not a day goes by
01:12:39where I don't think about you.
01:12:41And I know, I know
01:12:43you won't believe a word I say,
01:12:45but I thought
01:12:47maybe you'd believe something you could see.
01:12:51Is that...
01:12:53us?
01:12:55Yeah, it is.
01:13:03I love you.
01:13:05And I never stopped.
01:13:21I've missed this
01:13:23for so long.
01:13:25I've wanted this for so long.
01:13:27No.
01:13:29No, we have to stop.
01:13:33But the papers are signed, Craig.
01:13:35I'm engaged to someone else.
01:13:37And it's too late to turn the clock back now.
01:13:43Send me a picture when the town's rebuilt, okay?
01:13:45That's the thing,
01:13:47it, um,
01:13:49it won't be.
01:13:51What? What do you mean?
01:13:53Got this in the mail today.
01:13:55My plans were approved,
01:13:57but Dirk Diggle
01:13:59brought up all the local contractors,
01:14:01and I can't afford anyone else,
01:14:03so I'm going to have to resend my offer.
01:14:05No, you can't do that.
01:14:07I have to.
01:14:09I don't have a choice.
01:14:11What if I said
01:14:13I could help?
01:14:15I could help.
01:14:19I could help.
01:14:23Go back to New York.
01:14:25Don't worry about someone's
01:14:27tiny little dream in a
01:14:29nowhere town.
01:14:31This was our dream, Craig.
01:14:35Besides,
01:14:37you helped me out with Dirk Diggle once.
01:14:41She said she's not interested, bro!
01:14:45Now let me help you.
01:14:55Lulu!
01:14:57Um, change of plans.
01:14:59Send all of our
01:15:01best contractors to Franklin, Tennessee.
01:15:03Also, cancel my pedicure appointment.
01:15:11Have you come to withdraw your application, Craig?
01:15:13I knew you couldn't afford it.
01:15:15Actually, I just came to give you
01:15:17the deposit.
01:15:19We break ground tomorrow.
01:15:21We?
01:15:23We said we would fix this town up.
01:15:25And that is
01:15:27exactly what we're going to do.
01:15:33I never thought I'd see the day
01:15:35where our dream became a reality.
01:15:37It was always your dream.
01:15:39I was just happy to help.
01:15:43Lulu! Oh my god!
01:15:45Wow, boss.
01:15:47No wonder you never came back.
01:15:49You never told me your husband
01:15:51was a stone-cold hottie.
01:15:53Ex-husband.
01:15:55Right.
01:15:59Hallie.
01:16:01Ned! Hi.
01:16:03Um, what are you
01:16:05doing here? I told you I would be back next week.
01:16:07You want to tell me what the meaning of this
01:16:09is?
01:16:13You told me there was
01:16:15nothing going on between you two.
01:16:17Are you trying to embarrass me on a national stage?
01:16:19No, um, no.
01:16:21Ned, I am so sorry.
01:16:23Is your campaign okay?
01:16:25It's fine, for now.
01:16:27Luckily, this is just a mock-up.
01:16:29Post gave it to us
01:16:31before going to press. Get in.
01:16:33I am taking you home.
01:16:35Ned, I
01:16:37told you, this project
01:16:39is important. Hallie, you build
01:16:41multi-billion dollar skyscrapers.
01:16:43Not whatever this is.
01:16:45This
01:16:47matters. A sad little
01:16:49shopping mall in a sad little town?
01:16:51Come on, Hallie.
01:16:53You're better than this.
01:16:55What's that supposed
01:16:57to mean? Being back here, it has
01:16:59you confused. You don't know
01:17:01what you want. You don't know who
01:17:03you really are anymore.
01:17:05But this
01:17:07is your past.
01:17:09I am your future.
01:17:11Remember? You still
01:17:13want to marry me?
01:17:15Even after that? Yes.
01:17:17In fact, I want to move the wedding up.
01:17:19Let's get married right now.
01:17:25Let's get married right now.
01:17:27Right now? Um...
01:17:29Excuse me.
01:17:33Hey.
01:17:35Seeing these photos, it made me
01:17:37realize how much you mean
01:17:39to me. I can't lose you,
01:17:41Hallie. I don't want to lose
01:17:43you. Please.
01:17:45Marry me.
01:17:49You're gonna marry her?
01:17:51She was cheating
01:17:53on you.
01:17:55Who are you?
01:17:57I'm the woman that took these photos.
01:17:59So, you admit to
01:18:01sabotaging a political campaign.
01:18:03What?
01:18:05No. Ma'am, you're lucky the senator
01:18:07doesn't press charges. Come with me.
01:18:09What? No! No! No!
01:18:11You will not win this one, Hallie!
01:18:13No! Don't touch me!
01:18:17Dad, this all just
01:18:19feels a little fast.
01:18:21Yeah, but is it, Hallie? What are we waiting
01:18:23for?
01:18:25What are we waiting
01:18:27for?
01:18:29I don't know.
01:18:31Quit fucking around
01:18:33and marry me already.
01:18:35What's the rush, Ned?
01:18:37The post agreed to kill the cheating story
01:18:39if we give them something better.
01:18:41Something
01:18:43like? A wedding, for example.
01:18:47You want to marry me?
01:18:49For a story? Come on, Hallie.
01:18:51We're gonna get married anyway.
01:18:53What difference does it make?
01:18:55Was this whole thing
01:18:57just a publicity stunt?
01:18:59Our engagement?
01:19:01Our relationship?
01:19:03No. Of course not.
01:19:05I love you. Then what's my favorite
01:19:07color, Ned?
01:19:09Come on, Hallie.
01:19:11My favorite flower?
01:19:15My favorite flower? I don't know.
01:19:17Roses? Does it even matter?
01:19:19Yes, it does.
01:19:23I'm sorry,
01:19:25Ned, but I can't
01:19:27marry you. Yes, you can.
01:19:29Because if you don't,
01:19:31I can make your life very
01:19:33difficult. Starting
01:19:35with those big city contracts you just
01:19:37won. I spent years of blood, sweat
01:19:39and tears to get those contracts.
01:19:41And once I'm elected, I can make them
01:19:43all go poof.
01:19:45I have friends in very high
01:19:47places, Hallie. No, you wouldn't
01:19:49dare. I worked my entire
01:19:51career for those. Well, then the
01:19:53answer is simple.
01:19:55Marry me
01:19:57or lose everything.
01:19:59Come on, Hallie. This is not
01:20:01a difficult choice.
01:20:03You're hurting me. If you think this is pain,
01:20:05you haven't felt anything yet. Get off.
01:20:07Neither have you.
01:20:19My suit.
01:20:21My jaw.
01:20:23You broke my face.
01:20:25Good. Looks better that
01:20:27way, in my opinion. I'll have you arrested
01:20:29for assaulting a government official.
01:20:31There isn't a cop who will
01:20:33side with you over me. Not in this
01:20:35town.
01:20:37And by the way,
01:20:39her favorite color is blue, and her favorite
01:20:41flower is the marigold
01:20:43because it blooms from spring to fall.
01:20:45There you
01:20:47go. I hope that suit wasn't
01:20:49too expensive. This suit
01:20:51is worth more than you make in a year.
01:20:53Isn't that something?
01:20:55It's time for you to leave, Senator.
01:20:57Come on, Hallie.
01:20:59You're not going to give up everything
01:21:01just for some pathetic small-town nobody.
01:21:03He may be
01:21:05from a small town,
01:21:07but he is not a
01:21:09nobody.
01:21:11In fact, if I had to choose a son-in-law,
01:21:13I'd pick him over you any day of the week.
01:21:15Daddy.
01:21:19Hallie, I am so sorry
01:21:21for everything, starting with
01:21:23meddling in your marriage.
01:21:25Meddling? I...
01:21:27I'm the one that made Craig divorce you.
01:21:29I told him if he really
01:21:31loved you, he'd let you go.
01:21:33He did.
01:21:37I thought you deserved more than
01:21:39a small town, more than a
01:21:41local boy like him.
01:21:43She does, sir.
01:21:45Come on, Hallie.
01:21:47He divorced you.
01:21:49He gave up a daughter for you.
01:21:51So what if I want to marry you for a story?
01:21:53People get married for worse reasons.
01:21:55And they get divorced for better ones.
01:21:59I don't care what you think, old man.
01:22:01Hallie, you're coming with me.
01:22:03You stay away from my daughter.
01:22:05Hallie, I am not leaving.
01:22:07You owe it to me to go through with this wedding.
01:22:09I've had about enough
01:22:11of people telling me who I should and shouldn't marry.
01:22:15Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:17It's over between us.
01:22:23Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:25It's over between us.
01:22:27Fine.
01:22:29I hope
01:22:31you know what you're giving up, Hallie.
01:22:33I most
01:22:35certainly do.
01:22:41It was too big anyway.
01:22:43Wait!
01:22:45Wait!
01:22:47What about me? I'll marry you.
01:22:49I'm sure the post would
01:22:51love to see me in a wedding gown.
01:22:53And I would look
01:22:55way better than Hallie ever would.
01:22:57Not in a million years.
01:22:59Oh my gosh!
01:23:01Ew!
01:23:03Ew!
01:23:05Oh my gosh, I can't see me like this.
01:23:07Oh my gosh!
01:23:11I owe you both an
01:23:13apology for trying to play God.
01:23:15Daddy.
01:23:17Hear me out. When I was in the
01:23:19hospital, I hooked up to all those machines.
01:23:21I just kept having
01:23:23the same wonderful dream.
01:23:25This dream where
01:23:27you were still together.
01:23:29This dream where you were both
01:23:31living the life you deserve.
01:23:33I took that future and that life
01:23:35away from you.
01:23:37Hallie,
01:23:39Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:41Hallie,
01:23:43Craig never wanted
01:23:45to divorce you.
01:23:47How?
01:23:49This should be enough.
01:23:51I want her on that plane
01:23:53alone, whatever it takes.
01:23:55I tried
01:23:57to pay him off.
01:24:01And this is what he did with the money.
01:24:03I've never seen
01:24:05someone work so hard for love.
01:24:07Is this true,
01:24:09Craig?
01:24:11Why didn't
01:24:13you just tell me?
01:24:15Because I didn't want you to hate your father
01:24:17or blame him when you just thought he was
01:24:19doing what was right.
01:24:21You were protecting me.
01:24:23That's right.
01:24:25You two are the only family you have left.
01:24:29Unless...
01:24:33you let me be a part of your family
01:24:35again.
01:24:37Now I know
01:24:39this ring isn't exactly as big
01:24:41as your old one, but
01:24:43it can make
01:24:45me the happiest man in the world
01:24:47if you marry me again.
01:24:49Yeah?
01:24:51Yes, Craig, I'll marry you.
01:24:53Oh, perfect.
01:24:59It always
01:25:01was.
01:25:03Mommy, Daddy, I knew you'd come back
01:25:05together.
01:25:07All right, come on.
01:25:09Dale, that wasn't
01:25:11such a crazy dream. I'd like you to
01:25:13meet your granddaughter, Natalie Halle
01:25:15Brody. My dream
01:25:17came true.
01:25:19Hi, Grandpa. Halle,
01:25:21this is crazy, but
01:25:23if we run, we can make it to the town clerk
01:25:25before it closes. I do not
01:25:27want to be divorced from you one second longer.
01:25:29Me either.
01:25:31Yeah? Okay, what do we think?
01:25:33Who's up for a wedding?
01:25:35Yeah?
01:25:37Yeah?
01:25:39Yeah?
01:25:41Hi.
01:25:43Um, we would like
01:25:45to get remarried.
01:25:47I can't accept your
01:25:49remarriage. That's ridiculous.
01:25:51Uh, what?
01:25:53Why?
01:25:55I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:57That's ridiculous.
01:25:59Uh, what? Why?
01:26:01Because you were never really divorced in the first place.
01:26:03Look right here.
01:26:05You signed your name Halle Bildner.
01:26:07But your name is, and always
01:26:09has been, Halle Brody.
01:26:11Will you look at that?
01:26:13Wait, so, um,
01:26:15that means the custody
01:26:17papers?
01:26:19Well, that's, uh,
01:26:21that's void.
01:26:23So, you're still Natalie's
01:26:25parents.
01:26:27Mommy!
01:26:31Daddy.
01:26:33I
01:26:35forgive you.
01:26:37I
01:26:39forgive you.
01:26:45I
01:26:47forgive you.
01:26:53Got seven years to make up for it.
01:26:59I
01:27:01forgive you.
01:27:07I just want to thank you all for your faith in me and as your new mayor I
01:27:13promise to work tirelessly to bring this town back to what it once was starting
01:27:18with the community center that Craig and Hallie so generously built. Thank you.
01:27:26We love you Mayor Martha. Love you.
01:27:30What do you think of my chocolate chip?
01:27:37It's good.
01:27:39It's good.
01:27:41Looks like they found a story to replace me with after all.
01:27:50Is there really going to be a rapier?
01:27:52Yes. We're going to be one big happy family.
