00:00:00They say the most primal human things are fighting, and, well, I was about to learn both.
00:00:16Every girl wants to find her prince charming, but unfortunately, we don't exactly live in a
00:00:21fairytale world. There's no such thing as happily ever after. Where is the duck for table two?
00:00:28Table two ordered something special, chef.
00:00:33No, table two ordered the special, and the special is the duck. What is this?
00:00:38Nothing.
00:00:39Yes, exactly. This is nothing now. The duck.
00:00:43Just do what your boss says, Lily. You can't afford to lose another job.
00:00:47How can you pay for mom's operation when you're homeless?
00:00:50Table two, the duck.
00:00:52So, I'm thinking about adopting a dog. You know, like the little tiny dogs that can fit
00:01:00in your handbag. They're so cute. So, anyway, once your inheritance is secure, the Morrison
00:01:05deal is all in the bag. But, what is this mystery clause you won't tell us about, Jack?
00:01:13Jack? Jack? Hello?
00:01:16Yeah, the dog.
00:01:21Hi.
00:01:24Hi.
00:01:29You ordered the special?
00:01:33Actually, I ordered the...
00:01:34Trust me.
00:01:35Who is that girl?
00:01:37Something about her.
00:01:40It's like I've been waiting for her my whole life.
00:01:41Well, that was presumptuous.
00:01:44Huh?
00:01:44The waitress not bringing you what I ordered? Don't tell me you're actually impressed with
00:01:48that little slut, Jack.
00:01:49It looks good.
00:01:51The food or the waitress?
00:02:01And what do you think you are doing?
00:02:04I'm making something from this century.
00:02:06You know what? That's it. I've had enough. You are fired! Get out of here!
00:02:09Not this again.
00:02:10What did you say?
00:02:14I am serious this time. You are fired! You get out of here!
00:02:17What?
00:02:18You take this! You give up your act! You get out!
00:02:21No, please, sir! It won't happen again!
00:02:22No, it's no more Mr. Nice Guy this time. You get out! You leave!
00:02:26Please!
00:02:26No! No!
00:02:27Go ahead! Full call!
00:02:28Man!
00:02:29Putain!
00:02:32They're taking the trash out, I see.
00:02:36Yeah, the trash.
00:02:40God!
00:02:41Asshole!
00:02:44Ah!
00:02:47Ah!
00:02:48Ah!
00:02:48Ah!
00:02:58Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Ah! Please!
00:03:02Don't scream, dude, or do you scream for me?
00:03:21Hey, wait
00:03:32Not now, Warren
00:03:45Jack, my man, Hupasso
00:03:49So, I'm a little disappointed that you're making me ask again
00:03:52When you're going to unlock the inheritance, bro
00:03:54The deal of a lifetime isn't going to wait forever
00:03:56Yeah
00:03:58Yeah, come on, are you even listening?
00:04:00I mean, if we don't move on this Morrison thing
00:04:02Someone else will
00:04:03And I mean, I'm not going to be that guy
00:04:05Are you going to be that guy?
00:04:10How can I help my mom
00:04:12When I can't even afford something to eat?
00:04:15Maybe next time
00:04:16Thanks
00:04:19Call me, Jack
00:04:21I'll call you back
00:04:22Jack, come on
00:04:22Jack's never done that before
00:04:26If he doesn't lock away this inheritance deal
00:04:28Then
00:04:29The Morrison deal's over
00:04:31We're over
00:04:32Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren
00:04:36I've got just the plan
00:04:39Just when I think I've found her
00:04:47She's gone again
00:04:48How am I going to find her again?
00:05:03You could always marry Vivian Chase, sir
00:05:06Are you out of your mind?
00:05:07Vivian and I are done
00:05:08Never again
00:05:09She's just
00:05:11Business now
00:05:12Very well, sir
00:05:14Although it is your inheritance at stake, sir
00:05:17I'll find another wife
00:05:19I'm afraid not
00:05:20But the terms of your parents' will are quite specific
00:05:24You must be married before your 32nd birthday
00:05:27For precisely 365 days
00:05:30I know, I know
00:05:30And with that fateful birthday fast approaching
00:05:33There's little time
00:05:34The inheritance must be claimed within the month
00:05:37And most crucially of all
00:05:39You must not tell a soul about the marriage clause
00:05:42Especially your wife
00:05:45Or I lose everything
00:05:47Everything
00:05:48Don't complain about things
00:06:00I don't complain
00:06:01I don't
00:06:02All I'm saying is
00:06:03You're going to have to start living in the real world
00:06:06I am living in the real world
00:06:08Really?
00:06:14Because getting fired yet from another restaurant job
00:06:16Is the real world
00:06:17Creative
00:06:18Differences
00:06:19There are always creative differences with you
00:06:23Lily
00:06:24You've got to open up your own place
00:06:28You're a chef
00:06:29Not a fucking line cook
00:06:30So you've got to show the world what you got
00:06:32Besides
00:06:34I have my share of money
00:06:36But without yours
00:06:37We're never going to be able to afford mom's operation
00:06:40Yeah, it'll be all my fault
00:06:43Lily
00:06:45There is an opening at my office
00:06:49Seriously?
00:06:51It's stable
00:06:52Health insurance
00:06:54401k
00:06:55I'd rather die
00:06:56You'd rather be broke
00:06:57No, I'd rather
00:06:58How can you help mom
00:07:06When you can't even take care of yourself?
00:07:14Fine
00:07:14Yeah, you're right
00:07:15Let's do it
00:07:17Hi
00:07:34Hi
00:07:43Name
00:07:46Lily Dunning
00:07:48Can I help you?
00:07:50Yes, I'm here for the job interview
00:07:52My sister's Megan
00:07:53She works here
00:07:55Last place of employment?
00:07:57Chez Francois
00:07:58A restaurant?
00:07:59Yes, I'm a chef
00:08:02My passion's cooking
00:08:03So I
00:08:04And does this look like a restaurant to you?
00:08:06No
00:08:07No, of course not
00:08:09And why do you think someone like you could work here?
00:08:15I just need a job
00:08:17Sorry
00:08:18I'm
00:08:19Thanks
00:08:20We'll let you know, okay?
00:08:23You can go now
00:08:25Bye-bye
00:08:26Screw this
00:08:35Fuck
00:08:39What are you looking at?
00:08:56I'm sorry, mom
00:08:58I've tried everything
00:08:59And I've let you down
00:09:00You?
00:09:04Me
00:09:05You dropped something
00:09:09How did you?
00:09:15What are you doing here?
00:09:17I have a proposition for you
00:09:19Sorry, I'm not interested in propositions from strange men in suits
00:09:24Well, hold on
00:09:25Just hear me out
00:09:26I heard you get fired
00:09:27I know you don't have any money
00:09:30Looks like you're in a bit of a rough spot
00:09:33I'm doing fine, thank you
00:09:35Really?
00:09:39What if I told you this proposition could solve all your problems?
00:09:44Really?
00:09:46Solve all my problems?
00:09:48I've got a lot of problems
00:09:49What if I told you I need a wife?
00:09:52I tell you that there are apps for that?
00:09:54For one year
00:09:55Classy
00:09:56Look, listen
00:09:57I have a very important business deal
00:09:59With some very important people involved
00:10:01And they need to see stability
00:10:05Okay, so find someone stable
00:10:06Well, that's just it
00:10:08I need someone who won't fall in love with me
00:10:10Someone who will just walk away after the year
00:10:13And you seem uniquely qualified
00:10:17Right, you think I'm good at walking away?
00:10:19Okay
00:10:19Okay, well what's in it for me?
00:10:28Well, anything you want
00:10:28Money
00:10:30Place to live
00:10:31Complete financial freedom to pursue your dreams
00:10:34Just think of it as a business deal
00:10:36Wow
00:10:46Yeah, that's a really big diamond
00:10:50It's just a very small part of the deal
00:10:53You'll have your whole wing of the house
00:11:06My own wing?
00:11:08Complete privacy
00:11:09But you will have to attend events with me
00:11:11Play the happy wife
00:11:13This is
00:11:35Specific
00:11:39I like clarity
00:11:41Wife agrees to perform
00:11:52Very specific
00:11:57Is there a problem?
00:12:02Jack, we need to talk
00:12:03What's going on here?
00:12:09No
00:12:12I'm saying yes
00:12:18To everything
00:12:29Do you
00:12:43Jack Thorne

00:14:15and this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain

00:15:58Oh my gosh.
00:16:17Bravo?
00:16:21This is a lot.
00:16:24The contract stipulates appropriate attire for all occasions, including tonight's charity
00:16:29gala.
00:16:31I can't accept this.
00:16:32You can, and you will.
00:16:35Unless you want to attend the event and chance.
00:16:43You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:45Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:54Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?
00:17:01Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.
00:17:11Hi.
00:17:13And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?
00:17:18I don't need a knife.
00:17:19I need a chainsaw.
00:17:22Okay.
00:17:23Jackie, there you are.
00:17:25Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:17:27We simply must celebrate.
00:17:29I heard about your little stunt wedding.
00:17:33That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?
00:17:37I could think of a dozen things you could do to me.
00:17:45My God.
00:17:46This is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:49I'm sorry, but I didn't even do anything.
00:17:52Where did you find this one, Jackie?
00:17:54Waitstaff training school?
00:17:56Vivian.
00:17:59Oh, that was it.
00:18:01She was actually a waitress.
00:18:03Or, I don't remember, whatever it was.
00:18:07Excuse me.
00:18:10So, what you got to say, I have,
00:18:12went down for the eggs.
00:18:18As I was saying.
00:18:33You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:19:03You know, the house this grand, I would expect a kitchen to match.
00:19:20You know, the house this grand, I would expect a kitchen to match.
00:19:32I had to make do.
00:19:34Yeah, well, I never cook.
00:19:36Hmm.
00:19:37It's a shame.
00:19:46You can go now.
00:20:02You, um, wanted to see me.
00:20:06Time for your first lesson.
00:20:08My what?
00:20:14Self-defense.
00:20:16Never know when you might need it.
00:20:18I don't know if that's really...
00:20:19Number one.
00:20:20Stance.
00:20:21Move the feet apart.
00:20:24Bend this knee.
00:20:26Yeah.
00:20:28Then move this foot forward.
00:20:30Good.
00:20:31Okay.
00:20:32Now, hands up.
00:20:34Protect the face.
00:20:36Okay.
00:20:37Now, like this.
00:20:40Oh, God.
00:20:41Sorry.
00:20:46Not really good at this.
00:20:48We're just getting started.
00:20:51Oh.
00:20:52Maybe we should just focus on business.
00:20:56Rule number one.
00:20:58Stance.
00:21:00Right?
00:21:02Right?
00:21:08I love you.
00:21:13Right?
00:21:19I love you.
00:21:24Every chef needs proper tools
00:21:33I have a business expense
00:21:37Business expense
00:21:40These are the best knives in the market
00:21:44The best knives to the best chef
00:21:46Why are you doing this?
00:21:51The contract
00:21:52No
00:21:53The real reason
00:21:56Maybe I just like watching you work
00:21:58Maybe
00:22:02You just like watching me
00:22:06You know that
00:22:11This doesn't change anything
00:22:14Of course not
00:22:21This is for your mother
00:22:22No, this is too much
00:22:30This should cover the whole thing
00:22:31At least I can do
00:22:34I think that's literally the nicest thing a man has ever done for me
00:22:40What's the catch?
00:22:55We've got a problem
00:22:56Morning to you too
00:22:57So the inheritance release date is set but
00:23:00If anyone finds out about the marriage then
00:23:02No one's gonna find out
00:23:04Oh really?
00:23:05Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town
00:23:07It's under control
00:23:08Is it?
00:23:09It seems like you're letting your feelings control all your-
00:23:15I said it's handled
00:23:16Just remember what's at stake here, yeah?
00:23:29This Morrison deal
00:23:30Is a deal of a lifetime
00:23:33Don't tell me you're actually a fool
00:23:37Get out
00:23:38I said it's thrown at something like this
00:23:40I said it could do что
00:23:41But that's beautiful
00:23:42Maybe it's a joke
00:23:44I believe it's somebody when it comes to you
00:23:44I just said that
00:23:45It wasn't my fault
00:23:46It isn't my fault
00:23:47I'm like
00:23:48I
00:23:48I if it wasn't my fault
00:23:48Put my ziet
00:23:49襇
00:23:49You're being used your touch
00:25:20Jack, darling, bad to see you here.
00:25:31Vivian?
00:25:32The 82 crystal.
00:25:34Remember the crystal, Jack?
00:25:37I can still feel it running down my back just thinking about it.
00:25:41We even used to drink some of it.
00:25:44Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:46You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.
00:25:48Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:25:53This must be so boring for you.
00:25:56You're so insightful, Vivian.
00:25:58You do bore me.
00:26:00Darling, the adults have business to discuss.
00:26:03Why don't you go back to, like, chopping or whatever it is that you do?
00:26:08So basically, you know, the company way that we have our investments holding in?
00:26:11I had a business meeting with Hannah today, and she has basically advised me to say that
00:26:16our investments are not making any profit.
00:26:18The company itself isn't actually doing all too well.
00:26:20So my proposal for next year would be basically...
00:26:26Quite the whirlwind romance you've got there.
00:26:42What's the catch?
00:26:43There's always a catch.
00:26:46Excuse me.
00:26:47Rebecca Chen.
00:26:49Social pages.
00:26:50Two days from first meeting to marriage.
00:26:54This must be some kind of record.
00:26:57Though lately I've been more interested in business deals.
00:27:01Hmm.
00:27:01What would you say?
00:27:04Love at first sight or something more contractual?
00:27:09You know, you should really write romance novels.
00:27:11Seems you have quite the imagination.
00:27:13We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.
00:27:20I have a feeling there's quite a story here.
00:27:32The Morrison Foundation dinner's tonight.
00:27:34Oh, great.
00:27:35Another dinner.
00:27:36It's important.
00:27:37They're all important.
00:27:38It's a part of the deal.
00:27:41They're all a part of the deal.
00:27:43You knew what you were signing up for.
00:27:46Did I?
00:27:49At least Vivian will be there to talk deals and acquisitions and mergers.
00:27:57Okay, whatever.
00:27:58Nice.
00:28:10Real mature.
00:28:14No, don't.
00:28:18Okay.
00:28:19Okay, fine.
00:28:21You want to go?
00:28:23Nope.
00:28:23No, no.
00:28:24Oh!
00:28:26No!
00:28:28Okay.
00:28:30Okay.
00:28:31Yeah.
00:28:32Yeah!
00:28:33No, no, no.
00:28:33Oh.
00:28:33No, no, no.
00:28:34No, no.
00:28:35No.
00:28:35Let's go!
00:28:36No!
00:28:36Oh!
00:28:37No!
00:28:38No!
00:28:38No!
00:28:40Ow!
00:28:40Oh!
00:28:42Oh!
00:28:42Yeah.
00:29:12So Jack's inheritance is all set, but he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the proceeds
00:29:22to the Morrison deal. That's a problem. Hmm. It's the girl, isn't it? The waitress.
00:29:30You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.
00:29:33And I thought you had everything under control.
00:29:34Oh, I've done my part. That's underway. And I thought you'd have your part under control.
00:29:40I have everything under control.
00:29:45Oh, really? Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian. You know, maybe I overestimated your
00:29:49sway over, Jack.
00:29:50You haven't overestimated anything. I've just begun.
00:29:58I've got it.
00:29:59Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.
00:30:15I live here.
00:30:17Of course you do.
00:30:17Okay, thanks.
00:30:22Jack.
00:30:23Darling, should we proceed to the study? We need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:28Yeah.
00:30:29Yeah.
00:30:33Oh, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:40Vivian?
00:30:41Remember Tokyo?
00:30:45That Zake bar?
00:30:47I'm married.
00:30:50Are you now?
00:30:52I hadn't noticed.
00:30:54Uh-huh.
00:30:55You know that feeling when you leave the house and you just feel like you've forgotten something?
00:31:03I forgot something.
00:31:15Maybe you can...
00:31:17help me figure it out?
00:31:22Coffee?
00:31:25Oh, no thank you.
00:31:27Jack and I have much to catch up on.
00:31:30Oh, and Jack doesn't drink coffee.
00:31:33See you, Jack.
00:31:34Actually, I've taken it up recently.
00:31:37I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it.
00:31:39And he just absolutely laps up every drop of my coffee.
00:31:49Isn't that right?
00:31:51Lily makes a great cup of coffee.
00:31:55Hmm.
00:31:58So.
00:32:00How's Vivian?
00:32:03Focus on your form.
00:32:05You know.
00:32:06I was just wondering.
00:32:07How long the two of you...
00:32:09Ancient history.
00:32:11That's not what I heard.
00:32:12From who?
00:32:14Around.
00:32:16Tokyo gets brought up a lot.
00:32:18You've been talking to Warren.
00:32:20You've been talking to Vivian.
00:32:23That's business.
00:32:25Everything is business with you, isn't it?
00:32:27But you know what?
00:32:33What's this?
00:32:36Some pretty big business.
00:32:38That you haven't been sharing with me.
00:32:40I think Vivian wants some of it, too.
00:32:42But you know what?
00:32:47Maybe you should just keep your business to yourself.
00:32:51Sad.
00:32:53Watch your stance.
00:32:54I don't want to be lied to.
00:33:01I'm not lying, Lily.
00:33:05Don't break my heart.
00:33:09Yeah.
00:33:09God.
00:33:10God.
00:33:11God.
00:33:11Oh, my God.
00:33:41Yeah, this guy is so great today.
00:33:45Please act like you know me.
00:33:47There's someone following me.
00:33:49Oh, my God.
00:33:49Are you okay?
00:33:50Who's following you?
00:33:53That weirdo?
00:33:59Is he gone?
00:34:01I think he's gone.
00:34:10You sure?
00:34:11You like that?
00:34:22I think your technique could use some more.
00:34:25I got the dota rides.
00:34:29You sure that wasn't me?
00:34:30I got the dota rides.
00:34:51What?
00:34:51Of course.
00:34:57And I think the real challenge is market penetration and emerging economies.
00:35:01I'm sure Jack's brought you up to speed on all of this.
00:35:04Um, actually, I...
00:35:07Tell me.
00:35:08What's your take on blockchain integration?
00:35:10Um, I think...
00:35:14Oh, no comment.
00:35:15How surprising.
00:35:17Excuse me.
00:35:18Oh, great thinking, Lily.
00:35:20All of our drinks could use with a refill.
00:35:22Well...
00:35:22I love you.
00:35:45But this thing isn't going to last forever, Jack.
00:35:57I don't know.
00:35:58I mean, what choice do you have?
00:36:01Clop's ticking, buddy.
00:36:03Unless you want to lose this deal forever.
00:36:08Lunch?
00:36:08I was just on my way out.
00:36:15Think about it, Jack.
00:36:24What was that about?
00:36:27Nothing.
00:36:27Just business.
00:36:28Just business.
00:36:30Of course.
00:36:32Lily, wait.
00:36:32What do you want, Jack?
00:37:00Taking you on a holiday.
00:37:01What?
00:37:02You have time for that?
00:37:05A lot of time.
00:37:08Just us?
00:37:09I know what I want.
00:37:14Oh, what about, um...
00:37:16What about Warren and the deal?
00:37:18I can wait.
00:37:22There she is.
00:37:24What?
00:37:25That smile.
00:37:27It's the one you had when I first laid eyes on you.
00:37:30I'll never forget it.
00:37:32You know that I don't just, um...
00:37:35Serve that dish to anyone, right?
00:37:37Really?
00:37:38Mm-hmm.
00:37:42I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Thorne.
00:37:45I've been told to relay that there's a problem back at the office.
00:37:49Timeline on the deal has moved up.
00:37:51Save.
00:37:52Would you like me to cancel the trip, sir?
00:37:58Yeah.
00:38:00We're good.
00:38:02Who sent the message?
00:38:04Vivian Chase.
00:38:10I'll be, I'm sorry.
00:38:11Don't.
00:38:11Please.
00:38:12It's just business.
00:38:13It's business, yeah.
00:38:14I get it.
00:38:15Lily, I, I shouldn't, uh...
00:38:26Just shut up and taste this.
00:38:38Mm.
00:38:39It's a taste of...
00:38:39It's a taste of...
00:38:40Incredible?
00:38:41Yeah.
00:38:41Yeah, I know.
00:38:44Mm.
00:38:47Jack.
00:38:48Mm-hmm.
00:38:50Do you want more?
00:38:52Um, after this one.
00:38:53No.
00:38:54At the food.
00:38:58Jack.
00:39:00Talking about us.
00:39:07How long are we going to keep on doing this?
00:39:22Oh!
00:39:22Oh, my God.
00:39:26What was that?
00:39:34Any enemies?
00:39:36Business rivals?
00:39:39No one comes to mind.
00:39:41Security cameras?
00:39:44Being installed as we speak.
00:39:52Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:56Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:58Sorry.
00:40:00Sorry, sir.
00:40:05I'm worried.
00:40:06You okay?
00:40:09Yeah.
00:40:18No.
00:40:19No.
00:40:22This is so insane.
00:40:26It's probably just kids.
00:40:28Kids?
00:40:29Seriously.
00:40:31Can you keep your voice down?
00:40:32Oh, sorry.
00:40:35What, are you afraid that someone's going to hear about our perfect marriage?
00:40:38Yes!
00:40:39What are you hiding from me?
00:40:50Hey.
00:40:53Hey, you know that secret room that you didn't want me to find?
00:40:57I found it.
00:41:02Yeah.
00:41:07Hey, at least it's honest.
00:41:13Do you want to see it?
00:41:15Okay.
00:41:16Shall we?
00:41:22Mommy.
00:41:23Mommy?
00:41:24Mommy?
00:41:33Mommy?
00:41:34Mommy?
00:41:37Mommy?
00:41:38Mommy?
00:41:39Mommy?
00:41:42Mommy?
00:41:42Mommy?
00:41:43Should we?
00:41:44Most people run.
00:41:46I'm not most people.
00:41:52So, this is what you're into?
00:41:57Among other things.
00:41:59And all of those specific requirements.
00:42:05We're meant to scare you off.
00:42:07I don't scare you so.
00:42:09I'm starting to get that.
00:42:13Show me.
00:42:18You sure?
00:42:20Are you?
00:42:43I don't care.
00:42:50I don't care.
00:42:51I don't care.
00:42:52I don't care.
00:43:00So?
00:43:01So?
00:43:03So?
00:43:09Sir, Miss Chase is here.
00:43:11She says it's urgent.
00:43:13Jack, the team is flying to Tokyo and they need you there.
00:43:16Final deal points.
00:43:17Jack's leaving in 30.
00:43:18I packed your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs.
00:43:23Lily, wait.
00:43:26Just go.
00:43:32The way I can explain.
00:44:02Can you?
00:44:06Guess some business can't wait.
00:44:17This whole thing is...
00:44:19Let me get this straight.
00:44:21You sleep with him and then you find a note from his ex.
00:44:24That's complicated.
00:44:26When isn't it with you?
00:44:27Look, maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little...
00:44:32What? A mistake?
00:44:33That you were right?
00:44:35Huh? Is that what you want to hear?
00:44:37No, I want you to be happy.
00:44:40And are you?
00:44:41I don't know what I am anymore.
00:44:45I mean, he paid for mom's operation, so that's cool, but I...
00:44:48I know.
00:44:49And the worst part is I think I might actually be falling for it.
00:44:58Lily?
00:44:59Stand back.
00:45:00What?
00:45:00Stand back, Megan.
00:45:01Keep it, keep it, keep it, keep it.
00:45:07Whoa!
00:45:08Hey!
00:45:10Stop!
00:45:11Oh!
00:45:12Get down!
00:45:13Get down, motherfucker!
00:45:14Fucker!
00:45:15What?
00:45:15Oh my god!
00:45:17Fuck you!
00:45:19Come on, let's go.
00:45:22Oh, fuck.
00:45:24What was that?
00:45:27Lessons with Jack.
00:45:30Jack taught you that?
00:45:31Yeah.
00:45:32Yeah.
00:45:33Dude's getting better by a minute.
00:45:35I know.
00:45:36Oh, man.
00:45:39You okay?
00:45:41Yeah.
00:45:43God, things are supposed to be so simple.
00:45:47Now what?
00:45:48Oh.
00:45:49I don't even know what's real anymore.
00:45:52Oh, honey.
00:45:53I can't.
00:45:53I can't.
00:45:57He always keeps the ledger on his desk.
00:46:23Lauren, I've known you since college.
00:46:38How could you?
00:46:4411 months.
00:46:46Almost a year.
00:46:49I barely knew that's anymore.
00:46:51I don't know.
00:46:53I don't know.
00:47:03Lily, I need to tell you something.
00:47:05I'm all ears.
00:47:06It's about the deal.
00:47:08About Warren, Vivian.
00:47:10Well, if it isn't the happy couple.
00:47:13Oh, great.
00:47:15The press.
00:47:15These aren't real.
00:47:27Real?
00:47:28Oh, my sister say they're very real.
00:47:30Story runs in 48 hours.
00:47:33Lily, this is what I was just about to tell you.
00:47:35I've been set up.
00:47:38Care to comment, Mr. Thorne?
00:47:40You know, it's funny.
00:47:43I, for a minute, I really believed.
00:47:47Lily, wait.
00:47:50They're not real.
00:47:53Take talk, Mr. Thorne.
00:47:54Lily, wait.
00:48:08They're not real.
00:48:10You have to believe me.
00:48:11Like, I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal.
00:48:15Like, I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague.
00:48:20Like, I believe that last night actually meant something.
00:48:23It did.
00:48:25Lily, what happened between us was...
00:48:26The transaction.
00:48:29That's all any of this ever was.
00:48:31That's not true.
00:48:33And you know it.
00:48:34Do I?
00:48:37Because from where I'm standing,
00:48:39you got everything that you wanted.
00:48:41You got a wife when you needed one.
00:48:43And a body when you wanted one.
00:48:45Lily, that's not it.
00:48:46Tell me I'm wrong.
00:48:48Tell me that there's not something more going on here.
00:48:50With the business deal.
00:48:52And your inheritance.
00:48:54Anything more to explain.
00:49:02That's what I thought.
00:49:07You're a terrible person.
00:49:10If you leave now, you violate the contract.
00:49:13You get nothing.
00:49:15I don't care.
00:49:16I never cared about any of that.
00:49:39Hands up.
00:49:40Protect the face.
00:49:42No, don't.
00:49:45Go?
00:49:47Nope.
00:49:56Warren?
00:49:57Finally, look.
00:49:58About the Morrison deal.
00:50:00It's off.
00:50:01What do you mean it's off?
00:50:02All of it.
00:50:04The deal.
00:50:05The inheritance.
00:50:06I don't want any of it.
00:50:07Have you lost your freaking mind?
00:50:09I mean, everything that we've worked for.
00:50:11Actually,
00:50:12I think I found it.
00:50:16I think I found it.
00:50:18I don't want any of it.
00:50:18I don't want any of it.
00:50:19I don't want any of it.
00:50:20I don't want any of it.
00:50:20I don't want any of it.
00:50:21I don't want any of it.
00:50:21I don't want any of it.
00:50:22I don't want any of it.
00:50:23I don't want any of it.
00:50:23I don't want any of it.
00:50:24I don't want any of it.
00:50:25I don't want any of it.
00:50:25I don't want any of it.
00:50:26I don't want any of it.
00:50:27I don't want any of it.
00:50:27I don't want any of it.
00:50:28I don't want any of it.
00:50:29I don't want any of it.
00:50:29I don't want any of it.
00:50:30You can't just hide here forever.
00:50:51Watch me.
00:51:00Hey, what happened to the girl who would never back down?
00:51:09The one who quit her job because she didn't want to compromise?
00:51:12She played.
00:51:13Did she?
00:51:14If that's Jack, I'm sure that's just my oxygenarian neighbor who's a total drama queen.
00:51:23Watch.
00:51:24Gladys?
00:51:25Gladys, is that you?
00:51:29Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:38Sir.
00:51:39Coffee.
00:51:40Hi.
00:51:41I did some digging around like you asked, sir.
00:51:44You might want to see this.
00:51:50What am I looking at here?
00:51:52Wire transfers, shell companies, all leading back to Mr. Block.
00:51:57More.
00:51:58I knew it.
00:51:59You might want to see these too, sir.
00:52:01They'll illuminate things even more.
00:52:07Son of a bitch.
00:52:08He's trying to steal the inheritance.
00:52:10He sure is.
00:52:11All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies.
00:52:17Although I suspect Ms. Chase's interests are not purely financial.
00:52:21Sir?
00:52:22They're threatening Lily and her sister.
00:52:36Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game.
00:52:39Give me everything you can about Warren.
00:52:41Every meeting, every call.
00:52:42I already compiled, sir.
00:52:43I had a feeling we might need this.
00:52:45Sir, what about the inheritance?
00:52:47Some things are worth more than money.
00:52:49I'm coming back, Megan.
00:52:50I'm coming back.
00:52:51I'm coming back, Megan.
00:52:52I'm coming back, Megan.
00:53:04Megan.
00:53:22Oh, my God.
00:53:53I got us into this.
00:53:55I can get us out of this.
00:53:57Oh, I can do this.
00:53:58Oh, I can do this.
00:54:00Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.
00:54:05And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.
00:54:08If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:54:12Sign the papers.
00:54:15And this all goes away.
00:54:18Like those photos of you and me from that reporter suddenly went away.
00:54:22Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved, don't they?
00:54:29I always knew you were soft.
00:54:32But this, throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef.
00:54:36He's not throwing it away.
00:54:38He's giving it to us.
00:54:41All we need is a signature, Jack.
00:54:45You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:48Always have.
00:54:52I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:57Wait.
00:55:17Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:22Okay, remember your training.
00:55:26Protect your face.
00:55:31Megan!
00:55:32Lenny!
00:55:36Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:39Come on, come on.
00:55:40Come on.
00:55:41Come on.
00:55:42Of course it's a trap.
00:55:49The question is, what are you going to do about it?
00:55:54Lenny!
00:55:55I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.
00:56:01Room 115.
00:56:02Lauren's called the police.
00:56:04Already done.
00:56:04But sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:56:07She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:56:08No, no, no, no, no.
00:56:17Lauren, she's there.
00:56:19Lily's there.
00:56:24Hold on, Lily.
00:56:25Hold on.
00:56:26Hold on.
00:56:26Leave her alone.
00:56:40Shut up!
00:56:42Get away from my wife.
00:56:44Well, well.
00:56:46A hero arrives.
00:56:49Don't do it, Jackie boy.
00:56:51I'm not some damsel in distress.
00:56:56That's my girl.
00:57:05Oh.
00:57:06I guess it is real love, huh?
00:57:08That's for my sister.
00:57:20You son of a bitch.
00:57:27Lily.
00:57:28About everything.
00:57:30The photos.
00:57:31Vivian.
00:57:33Now?
00:57:33Seriously?
00:57:34I love you.
00:57:35Not for any inheritance.
00:57:39Not for any deal.
00:57:41Just, you know.
00:57:45Enough.
00:57:54You.
00:57:55Stay right there.
00:57:57Come on.
00:57:57Cuff him.
00:57:58Cuff him.
00:57:58Cuff him.
00:57:59Cuff him.
00:58:00Cuff him.
00:58:01Cuff him.
00:58:01Cuff him.
00:58:02Cuff him.
00:58:02Cuff him.
00:58:03Cuff him.
00:58:04Cuff him.
00:58:05What the hell?
00:58:13This isn't...
00:58:14Possible.
00:58:18And I wouldn't put money on how well that's gonna go.
00:58:20Sign the papers.
00:58:21Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:58:24That proves nothing.
00:58:25I think it might prove something.
00:58:27Yeah, and those photos that you planted?
00:58:29Maybe use better AI next time.
00:58:31You can't?
00:58:32Yes, they can.
00:58:33And you two are under arrest.
00:58:38You don't regret this, Jack.
00:58:40The inheritance that...
00:58:41Are nothing compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:43You could have had it all, Jack.
00:58:47I do.
00:58:47Yes, thank you.
00:58:56Thanks.
00:59:01Now that's a story.
00:59:06Here to twist the knife?
00:59:08Actually...
00:59:09I'm here to get it right.
00:59:13Where did you...
00:59:13Lawrence sends his regards.
00:59:16Seems your butler is a little armchair investigative journalist.
00:59:20So, no scandal piece?
00:59:22Oh.
00:59:23There's definitely a scandal.
00:59:25But, not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:31That's actually accurate.
00:59:33I'm a reporter.
00:59:35Truth is kind of my thing.
00:59:37Though, I must admit, I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.
00:59:42Yeah, neither did they.
00:59:44Story runs tomorrow.
00:59:47Catch you on the next scandal.
00:59:56Only about the inheritance.
00:59:57You really think that I care about any of that now?
00:59:59Just take me home.
01:00:07Yes, dear.
01:00:17Sun's coming up.
01:00:18Must be a new record.
01:00:21It is for me.
01:00:23Any regrets?
01:00:26Only one.
01:00:27That didn't get your chef's special sooner.
01:00:32Could have saved us the last trip.
01:00:33Yeah.
01:00:34Wow.
01:00:38Excuse me, sir.
01:00:39Miss Chen's article is out.
01:00:41How bad is it?
01:00:43Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.
01:00:45She's included the last bit you wanted to put in.
01:00:48Okay.
01:00:57Jack Thorne announced plans.
01:01:03In a shocking turn of events, tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans to transform
01:01:07his inherited fortune into the city's largest culinary grant program.
01:01:12Surprised?
01:01:13But your, your inheritance is gone.
01:01:19Well, the inheritance, yeah.
01:01:21It turns out selling a tech company can be quite profitable.
01:01:24You sold the company?
01:01:26Turns out some things are worth more than money.
01:01:36I'm sorry.
01:01:37I don't know.
01:01:37Perfect, Julie and Danny.
01:01:45Keep them thin, okay?
01:01:46Just like that.
01:02:02This looks good on you.
01:02:03And who said there's no such thing as a happily ever after?
01:02:09Suckers.
01:02:10Can I get you your usual, sir?
01:02:13It depends.
01:02:15Did my wife make it?
01:02:16The very same wife that you married for business?
01:02:19Best business decision I ever made.
01:02:27Hang on.
01:02:33You're the best chef in town.
01:02:43You're only saying that because you're contractually obligated.
01:02:48I think that contract expired.
01:02:51Good thing I signed a new one.
01:02:59We are gathered here today.
01:03:01No more business deals this time.
01:03:02Just love.
01:03:05Good.
01:03:06Because I have some terms of my own.
01:03:10First,
01:03:11you have to eat everything I cook.
01:03:14Done.
01:03:16Second,
01:03:17no more locked rooms.
01:03:20Without me in it.
01:03:24Is that all?
01:03:26Third,
01:03:27you have to mean it this time.
01:03:30I met it the first time.
01:03:31Just didn't know it yet.
01:03:33The rings?
01:03:35Actually.
01:03:41Is that?
01:03:42Something old.
01:03:44Something new.
01:03:45Something borrowed.
01:03:47Something...
01:03:48Not one.
01:03:50For better or worse.
01:03:51For better or worse.
01:04:00For real this time.
01:04:03You make is the bride.
01:04:04Thanks.
01:04:05Thanks.
01:04:05Thanks.
01:04:05Thanks.
01:04:20So,
01:04:20are you ready for your honeymoon?
01:04:23What are you...
01:04:27Lauren taught me back
01:04:30Mrs. Thorne, are you trying to negotiate new business terms?
01:04:39I don't know, Mr. Thorne
01:04:42Can you handle them?
01:04:47I thought this wasn't about business anymore
01:04:49How about you just shut up
01:04:52And kiss your wife
