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

01:15:55To the future, darling.
01:15:59Drink. You've worked much too hard not to revel in your victory.
01:16:11There it is. Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:16:16People walk in and out of my office, having no idea what's in the room with them.
01:16:22Of course, I won't be able to enjoy too much longer, since my programmer is going to pick it up tonight.
01:16:28I guess I just feel bad.
01:16:31To get what you want in life, sometimes you have to do bold things. Break the rules a little.
01:16:39I guess.
01:16:41Ask any CEO, and they'll agree, including your little boy toy.
01:16:47Blaine would never do anything like that.
01:16:49Well, anyway, speaking of money, let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:16:56What?
01:16:57All I need is your wiring info, and I can send it on over.
01:17:00I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed?
01:17:05I'm sorry, you haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:17:09No, that's why we're here, isn't it?
01:17:12Darlene?
01:17:16Darlene?
01:17:23Darlene?
01:17:39All right.
01:17:42One more drink and we'll start packing up my things.
01:17:47Deal. One more.
01:17:53Anna.
01:17:54Hi, Mr. Ellington. May I come in?
01:17:55Sure. Come on in.
01:17:58Hi, cutie.
01:18:02Care for a drink?
01:18:03Oh, no. I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:18:06Wait, what was that?
01:18:07Mr. Ellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:18:10From who?
01:18:11Ariel.
01:18:17From who?
01:18:18Ariel.
01:18:20I don't want it. Take it back.
01:18:22She said you might say that, but she said that it was very, very important.
01:18:27How important?
01:18:29I don't know, but she did say that it was something so important that she only trusted me to deliver it, so it must be a big deal.
01:18:37Oh, my God.
01:18:53Oh, my God.
01:18:54Ew, what's happening?
01:18:56What's going on? What does this mean?
01:18:58Oh, Flora?
01:19:17Yes, darling?
01:19:18Your appointment had to leave early. I asked if they wanted to schedule, but they said no.
01:19:23I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today. What was the name?
01:19:30Valentina Kingsley?
01:19:31You're rich. You'll get over it, darling.
01:19:54Oh, what's going on? What does this mean?
01:20:11Thank you for everything.
01:20:23Hannah, did you want to help me with that, uh, that one, the thing?
01:20:27Yes, yes. Let's, uh, let's do that.
01:20:29Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:20:41Blaine, there's no easy way for me to say this, but it's time.
01:20:48Blaine, there's no easy way for me to say this, but it's time to celebrate.
01:21:10You are going to regret this. I promise you that.
01:21:12Geez, what did you do?
01:21:19I don't know, girl, but the way she wears that dress, she can step on me any day.
01:21:26I see. I knew you could do it. I knew it.
01:21:30You know, your dad would be so proud of you.
01:21:35Ha, ha, ha.
01:21:42Dr. Westfall.
01:21:47Oh, hi, Ariel.
01:21:48Is surgery over? How did it go?
01:21:50Yes, we just finished. Um, there were complications.
01:21:53Complications?
01:21:54Yes, but we were able to work through them, and your mother's going to be just fine.
01:21:59Really?
01:22:00Yeah, really, yes. In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:22:04She's going to need to rest for a few hours, but when she wakes up, she's going to feel better than she has in a long time.
01:22:10I can't thank you enough.
01:22:11I'm happy to help.
01:22:41Come in. Come in.
01:22:56Welcome.
01:23:01Ariel.
01:23:01Mom, why didn't you hang out of bed? The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:23:07I know, I know, but I saw this cute guy through the window, and I got kind of excited.
01:23:13Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:23:17No, thank you, but thank you.
01:23:18Oh, thank you. Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:23:22Mom, do you mind giving us some privacy?
01:23:25Oh, of course. I'll just be right over here, don't mind me.
01:23:31I'm so, so sorry.
01:23:43I, uh...
01:23:44I understand why you did it.
01:23:49And you gave me the drive back, so there's no need to apologize.
01:23:53Thank you for everything.
01:23:56I don't even know where to start.
01:23:58I'm not looking for an apology.
01:24:04You're not?
01:24:05No.
01:24:07See, I'm still CEO, and I need an assistant.
01:24:10And you're kind of the best in town.
01:24:16I accept.
01:24:18And, uh...
01:24:20You're still looking for a girlfriend?
01:24:25Well, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:24:30Okay.
01:24:40I love you, Valentina.
01:24:45I-I mean, Ariel.
01:24:48That's gonna take some getting used to.
01:24:51There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:24:55But this is my special place.
01:24:59It's even better.
01:25:10There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:25:12It's even better.
