00:00:00Hey, this is Richard Allenton. I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:15Hey, Grandpa.
00:00:18It's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody two-shoe women.
00:00:24But to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind date,
00:00:29that's low.
00:00:34Let's hope this one's different.
00:00:37I don't even know what to say to this guy.
00:00:40I don't know how to talk to rich people.
00:00:42Be sexy.
00:00:44Darling, just act better than everyone else in the room.
00:00:48And being sexy is easy.
00:00:50Bite your lip, push up the girls.
00:00:53It works every time.
00:00:54Wait, but what girls?
00:00:56And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily.
00:00:59So challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot.
00:01:04I don't think I can do this.
00:01:05The sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your mother's surgery.
00:01:11It's your call.
00:01:12I don't think I can do it all.
00:01:20I don't think I can do it all.
00:01:31I don't think I can do it all.
00:01:31But we can do it all.
00:01:32It's your turn.
00:01:33It's your turn.
00:01:34Are you going to stare at me all night or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:01:47Of course.
00:01:55Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you.
00:02:01You're so...
00:02:03Rich?
00:02:04Sexy?
00:02:06Frankly, yes.
00:02:08Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:13Valentina Kingsley.
00:02:14And you are?
00:02:15Blaine Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:20And this is a successful company?
00:02:23It's not ringing any bells.
00:02:26Waiter?
00:02:27Yes, Mr. Ellington.
00:02:29You still have the Chateau Petrus on the shelf, yes?
00:02:33Yes, of course.
00:02:33If so, we'll have two bottles.
00:02:37It's $60,000 per bottle, sir.
00:02:39You want two?
00:02:42Actually, I'm pretty thirsty.
00:02:45Better bring three.
00:02:45Yeah, right, yes, of course, right away, sir.
00:02:54And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:02:58I invest.
00:03:00In what?
00:03:00In everything.
00:03:02In everything.
00:03:04What am I not investing in?
00:03:08Businesses?
00:03:09Charities?
00:03:10I see.
00:03:10I see.
00:03:13And you live in the city?
00:03:16The city.
00:03:18The hills.
00:03:19My yacht.
00:03:22My private island.
00:03:24I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:26You're so impressive.
00:03:30So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:03:33Hmm.
00:03:33Doesn't surprise me.
00:03:35I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:03:36Um, you've got a little, uh...
00:03:52Kurt?
00:03:56Kurt?
00:03:56What's my manager doing here?
00:04:00Blaine!
00:04:03My business dinner just ended.
00:04:04The presentation for the China branch.
00:04:06Looking good.
00:04:07Amazing.
00:04:07You're the best, Kurt.
00:04:08Well, I just, uh, won't keep you two.
00:04:10Just wanted to say hi.
00:04:13Rose petals for a business dinner?
00:04:15Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:16Ah, classic.
00:04:18All right, well, you two have fun.
00:04:20I've got to be honest with you.
00:04:30You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with.
00:04:33Would you like to come to my place?
00:04:36I can take this chance to get closer to the AI code.
00:04:39Absolutely, darling.
00:04:46Whoa.
00:04:47Welcome to my home.
00:04:51After you.
00:05:08Oh, my.
00:05:09You like what you see?
00:05:23You're getting there, darling.
00:05:25Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:28Well, then, shall we get started?
00:05:30Uh, not so fast.
00:05:37Okay.
00:05:37A little foreplay?
00:05:39I did not think this through at all.
00:05:41How am I supposed to find the drive when he's trying to suck my face off?
00:05:49Looking for something?
00:05:51Oh, um...
00:05:52I should have known that was your style.
00:05:59Oh, yes, darling.
00:06:03Ugh, I can't believe people are actually into this.
00:06:06I'm not used to being the one tied up.
00:06:08It's usually the other way around.
00:06:14Valentina?
00:06:15Patience, darling.
00:06:18I'm building the suspense.
00:06:21Ah, I see.
00:06:22Where could it be?
00:06:24Right.
00:06:25And you say guys actually like this?
00:06:28Oh, yes.
00:06:29It's very popular with the manly men in France.
00:06:36How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:06:38That's...
00:06:43That's new.
00:06:47The painting!
00:06:48Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:06:50Oh, uh...
00:06:51Sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:06:54It looks exactly like...
00:06:56The one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:06:59It's where I keep my safe.
00:07:02People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:07:06Thought that was only in the movies.
00:07:08Oh, no.
00:07:09It's quite popular.
00:07:11Where do you hide your luxurious safekeepings?
00:07:16In a super, super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:20Oh, come on.
00:07:23Now, why don't you come over here and get this thing started?
00:07:27Oh, uh...
00:07:28Most unfortunate.
00:07:29I'm getting the utmost important business call,
00:07:33and I must take it.
00:07:34Right now?
00:07:36What?
00:07:36What about me?
00:07:38Valentina!
00:07:42Wait!
00:07:44Untie me!
00:07:51Ew.
00:07:52Really, Blaine?
00:07:54What?
00:07:55You and your models.
00:07:57Last night was not a model.
00:08:01I was actually impressed.
00:08:04Did I hear it right?
00:08:06Blaine actually had a date he liked?
00:08:08It was fantastic.
00:08:10The other girls are so boring.
00:08:13But this one...
00:08:13She's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:17I must see her again.
00:08:18Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:22It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:29Grandfather.
00:08:30Hmm?
00:08:31Listen to him.
00:08:32He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:08:34I am much more qualified.
00:08:35Yeah.
00:08:36I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:08:40Mm-hmm.
00:08:41No, no, no, no.
00:08:43Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:08:45Right?
00:08:46Yeah, you weren't meant to be some CEO.
00:08:49No, but Blaine...
00:08:51Blaine will learn in time.
00:08:52Whatever.
00:08:55Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:08:58I have actual work to attend to.
00:09:01Whoa.
00:09:04Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:09:05Thanks.
00:09:12Hello?
00:09:13How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:17To perfection.
00:09:20She already has Blaine wrapped around her finger.
00:09:22It won't be long until he slips up,
00:09:24and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:29Brilliant.
00:09:30It's all coming together perfectly.
00:09:33And the VR tech you're developing,
00:09:34it'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?
00:09:37Oh, yes.
00:09:38It'll be ready.
00:09:39Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.
00:09:42Hmm.
00:09:43Hmm.
00:09:43Hmm.
00:09:52What's he doing here?
00:09:57Speaking of girls,
00:09:58I think I know who would be perfect as your new assistant.
00:10:01Oh.
00:10:02Sorry.
00:10:03I'm fine.
00:10:06Ariel.
00:10:07How does he know my name?
00:10:09You dropped your badge.
00:10:10There you go.
00:10:19Thanks.
00:10:26She's amazing.
00:10:30Are you playing hide-and-seek?
00:10:31Is that where you're late?
00:10:32Can I hide next?
00:10:33No, I was dropping your mom off at the hospital.
00:10:36Oh, that was unexpectedly personal.
00:10:38Wait, oh my God, is she okay?
00:10:40Should I bring her a fruit basket?
00:10:41She's just getting some tests done.
00:10:43Oh, thank goodness.
00:10:45Hey, by the way, did you hear?
00:10:47Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.
00:10:50Are you going to apply?
00:10:51I'm good where I am.
00:10:52But all the girls are applying.
00:10:54Everyone wants to get close to our boss.
00:10:56You're the best employee in our department, Ariel.
00:10:57I think this position is yours.
00:11:10He's gorgeous.
00:11:12I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:16Attention, everyone.
00:11:18My name is Blaine, and I am the new CEO.
00:11:21I will try my best to live up to my father,
00:11:25but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:29And since he is adjusting to this new role,
00:11:32I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:11:35Not me, not me, not me.
00:11:37Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:11:45All right, everyone, back to work.
00:11:51You look exactly like...
00:11:58Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:12:05Clean, organized desk, confident composure.
00:12:10There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:12This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:16When do I start?
00:12:17Perfect.
00:12:18First thing I need help with, there's this file.
00:12:21Oh, um, gotta take a phone call.
00:12:24Send it to me in an email.
00:12:29Ariel, he wants to meet you again.
00:12:32Really?
00:12:33Also, I got you a second number.
00:12:35Just click the link to connect it,
00:12:37so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:12:41Great.
00:12:41New number, huh?
00:12:52Hello?
00:12:54Hello, Ariel.
00:12:55This is Dr. Westphal.
00:12:56We just got your mother's results.
00:13:02It's not what we hoped.
00:13:03So we need to move quickly
00:13:05if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.
00:13:08Okay, I understand.
00:13:10I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:21Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:23I just finished dinner.
00:13:24Mom, you should be in bed.
00:13:26Honey, I'm fine.
00:13:28Besides, you've been working all day.
00:13:29You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.
00:13:31Mom, please.
00:13:32Honey, sit down.
00:13:34The doctor called?
00:13:46He says it's gotten worse.
00:13:47Oh, hush, hush, hush, hush.
00:13:48Hush.
00:13:49None of that talk, okay?
00:13:51Mom, eat before your food gets cold.
00:13:54Okay.
00:14:02I'll be right back.
00:14:04It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:12Are you ready?
00:14:15Yeah.
00:14:18Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:21I'll make it to go.
00:14:22Oh, where am I?
00:14:44Valentina!
00:14:45Blaine!
00:14:48Darling, what is this dreadful place?
00:14:50Do you intend to have me killed?
00:14:52No, not at all.
00:14:53This place is special.
00:14:55Follow me.
00:15:08How many more?
00:15:10We're almost there.
00:15:11Come on.
00:15:11Come on.
00:15:11Let's go.
00:15:27Wow.
00:15:27Look at you.
00:15:28Look at you.
00:15:29Would you look at that view?
00:15:41I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:15:43Just you, actually.
00:15:45I discovered this place after my father died.
00:15:49Your father died?
00:15:51Yeah.
00:15:52I've been thrown into the CEO position, and I'm a bit in over my head.
00:15:58So, I never really get a chance to myself, except when I come here.
00:16:05I'm so sorry.
00:16:12My mom is sick.
00:16:17She needs experimental surgery.
00:16:23So I know it feels to...
00:16:26Want to get away.
00:16:27Yeah.
00:16:28I'm used to getting everything, but this is one thing that money can't buy.
00:16:37So sorry about your mom.
00:16:40Thanks.
00:16:43She's all I've got.
00:16:45I don't want to say goodbye to her.
00:16:47Hey, who's out here?
00:17:04What's happening?
00:17:06Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.
00:17:08What?
00:17:08Run.
00:17:09Hey!
00:17:17Hey!
00:17:20Still!
00:17:26What was that?
00:17:27That was fun.
00:17:28Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that adventurous?
00:17:31No, I suppose not.
00:17:32I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:17:39I feel like I can be myself around you.
00:17:43I feel the same way.
00:17:43I feel the same way.
00:17:45Will you be my girlfriend, Valentina?
00:17:48That's right.
00:17:49I'm supposed to be Valentina.
00:17:51I can't do this to him.
00:17:52But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.
00:18:02I'd love to.
00:18:02Well, well, well.
00:18:10Martina, what are you doing here?
00:18:12I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:18:16Had to see it for myself.
00:18:19Well, that blind date went so well the other night,
00:18:22it got me thinking maybe grandfather was right.
00:18:24Is that so?
00:18:26Blaine's got himself a little girlfriend?
00:18:29That's right.
00:18:30Wow.
00:18:31What's she like?
00:18:32She's funny, mysterious, confident, hardworking, charitable.
00:18:38She's the whole package.
00:18:40Sounds like one that dad actually would have approved of.
00:18:43I'd love to meet her.
00:18:47Oh, sorry, Mr. Ellington.
00:18:49Is this about time?
00:18:50No, not at all.
00:18:51My sister just came to visit.
00:18:53Martina, this is my new assistant, Ariel.
00:18:57Martina, nice to meet you.
00:18:58Likewise.
00:18:59Glad to see my brother as someone
00:19:01to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:19:03Don't you worry.
00:19:04I got this.
00:19:06Well, after you lost the keys to the Maserati,
00:19:08I'm not so sure that you won't lose
00:19:09this new AI tech that we need.
00:19:11I didn't lose the keys to the Maserati,
00:19:13and don't you worry,
00:19:14I've got the codes right here on this drive,
00:19:17and I'm keeping it safe.
00:19:19Glad to hear you're doing that.
00:19:34I have wasted enough time.
00:19:38Now you know exactly where it is.
00:19:40Get it.
00:19:41All right, where's that drive?
00:19:58Are you kidding?
00:19:59There's nothing in here.
00:20:00They're coming in.
00:20:15Crap.
00:20:16How about we celebrate your China contract
00:20:18with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:20:20You don't twist my arm.
00:20:23You don't twist my arm.
00:20:25No, no, no.
00:20:26Oh, yeah.
00:20:38Sarah, cheers.
00:20:39Don't you guys have that meeting
00:20:40with China right now?
00:20:44Right, right, right.
00:20:45After that.
00:20:46Yeah.
00:20:47Whew, that was close.
00:21:02Hey, hey, girlfriend.
00:21:03Can I ask your advice on something?
00:21:05Sure.
00:21:06What's going on?
00:21:07So I have this friend
00:21:08who is having boy problems.
00:21:11Aren't we all?
00:21:12So she has a crush on her boss,
00:21:14and she doesn't know what to do about it
00:21:15because of the whole workplace relationship thing.
00:21:18How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:21:20Wait, I don't like Blaine.
00:21:22But he deserves to know, though, right?
00:21:24You're going to tell him?
00:21:25I mean, I don't know,
00:21:26because what if I tell Kurt I like him
00:21:28and he doesn't like me,
00:21:29and then it's so totally awkward,
00:21:30and so he fires me
00:21:31because it's so totally awkward.
00:21:33Wait, you like Kurt?
00:21:35I gotta go.
00:21:37What?
00:21:38Ring, ring.
00:21:38Oh, I'm getting a call.
00:21:41Ring, ring.
00:21:43Ring, ring.
00:21:44Ring, ring.
00:21:45Ring, ring.
00:21:47Ariel.
00:21:49Yes, Mr. Ellington?
00:21:52I need your personal help.
00:21:54Well, I am your personal assistant.
00:22:06I've never gotten a girl a gift.
00:22:08Wow, really?
00:22:09Um, I mean, yeah.
00:22:12First girlfriend, first gift.
00:22:14Checks out.
00:22:15So, I need your help
00:22:17to figure out
00:22:18which you think a woman would prefer.
00:22:20Oh, my God.
00:22:32I'm going to be wearing that?
00:22:34Sorry?
00:22:36Uh, your girlfriend's
00:22:37going to be wearing that?
00:22:39Yeah.
00:22:40It's pretty nice, right?
00:22:41Well, I mean,
00:22:43it's option one.
00:22:44Do you think she'll like it?
00:22:45Um,
00:22:47well,
00:22:49what's her girlfriend like?
00:22:50What are her
00:22:51tastes?
00:22:53Um,
00:22:54sophisticated,
00:22:56generous,
00:22:57gorgeous.
00:22:58The whole world
00:22:59slows down
00:23:00whenever she walks into a room.
00:23:04I see.
00:23:05So,
00:23:09keep that in mind.
00:23:10Option two.
00:23:16And that's even more
00:23:17revealing than the first one.
00:23:18Yeah.
00:23:19This is big in Europe.
00:23:21Between you and me,
00:23:22I'm written for this guy.
00:23:23Mm-hmm.
00:23:24I see.
00:23:25Do you have anything more
00:23:27modest?
00:23:30Hmm.
00:23:31Modest?
00:23:32Yeah.
00:23:32that seems to be
00:23:34the style I've been
00:23:35seeing these days.
00:23:37With the rich folk,
00:23:39at least.
00:23:40You know,
00:23:40now that you say it,
00:23:42I think I do have something.
00:23:49Aha!
00:23:52What do you think?
00:23:54I think she'd really like that.
00:23:56Can I have a margarita?
00:24:06You can't be serious,
00:24:08darling.
00:24:09She'll have a friend
00:24:1075 with cognac.
00:24:12Flora,
00:24:13what are you doing here?
00:24:14Making sure you look the part.
00:24:16You want to make the money
00:24:17for your dear mother,
00:24:18don't you?
00:24:19Yes,
00:24:20more than anything.
00:24:21Then you need to keep your eyes
00:24:23on the prize.
00:24:24We need to get our hands
00:24:26on that code fast.
00:24:27Once I do,
00:24:28I can fund your mother's surgery,
00:24:30but until then,
00:24:30we're in this together.
00:24:33Yes?
00:24:34Yeah.
00:24:36Excellent.
00:24:38Now,
00:24:38what's your game plan?
00:24:40Make him even more vulnerable
00:24:41and get him to tell me
00:24:43where the code is.
00:24:44And how do you suppose
00:24:45you'll do that?
00:24:47Um,
00:24:47be nice?
00:24:52Uh,
00:24:53your ignorance
00:24:55is both cute
00:24:56and annoying.
00:24:58No.
00:24:59A man like Blaine Ellington
00:25:01is going to become vulnerable
00:25:03from two things.
00:25:05Drinking with him
00:25:06and going to bed with him.
00:25:09Right.
00:25:12I can,
00:25:13I can do that.
00:25:14I hope so,
00:25:15because he's coming this way.
00:25:16Get the code soon, honey.
00:25:21For your mother.
00:25:23Okay.
00:25:26Oh!
00:25:27And darling,
00:25:29have fun.
00:25:32All right.
00:25:36Valentina.
00:25:39How are you?
00:25:40Wonderful, love.
00:25:42I've been looking forward
00:25:43to this all day.
00:25:44Is that so?
00:25:45Indeed.
00:25:46I was so distracted,
00:25:49it affected my croquet score.
00:25:52Oh no.
00:25:52Distracted over little old me.
00:25:54Yes.
00:25:55I simply must
00:25:56know everything about you.
00:25:58Well,
00:25:59what would you like to know?
00:26:01Everything.
00:26:03Well,
00:26:03I don't know about everything.
00:26:05It might take some time
00:26:06for me to open up.
00:26:07Well,
00:26:08maybe after a few drinks.
00:26:11Only if you can keep up.
00:26:13See,
00:26:13I don't really start talking
00:26:15until after a lot of drinking.
00:26:17Oh no.
00:26:19Well,
00:26:19here goes nothing.
00:26:20No,
00:26:22man.
00:26:27Oh,
00:26:28man.
00:26:28Oh,
00:26:29man.
00:26:29That's really good.
00:26:31That's not in that.
00:26:33That's funny.
00:26:34That's not in that.
00:26:35That's fine.
00:26:36You know, my sister was implying today
00:26:44that I should tell someone where my new AI code is
00:26:48because I forget stuff.
00:26:51Are you forgetful?
00:26:54I mean, yeah.
00:26:56Can you actually believe I lost the keys to a Maserati?
00:27:00What? Really?
00:27:01Yeah.
00:27:02It cost me $10,000 just to get them reekied,
00:27:06which is why I should probably tell someone
00:27:11in case I do forget.
00:27:14So maybe I should tell you
00:27:16because you're so awesome and trustworthy.
00:27:19Well, if you'd like, go ahead.
00:27:21I'll tell you, but first...
00:27:25I'm going to hit the men's room.
00:27:32This is it.
00:27:36All I need to do is ask him where the code is
00:27:38and my mission is over.
00:27:40Nothing can stop me now.
00:27:42Ariel?
00:27:44Except my ex-boyfriend.
00:27:49I don't know what you're talking about, darling.
00:27:51I don't know this Ariel.
00:27:54No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:56You are definitely Ariel.
00:28:00But what are you doing in a place like this?
00:28:03You're a whore.
00:28:04Fine.
00:28:05Please just leave, Max.
00:28:07It's Maximilian now.
00:28:09Because I'm Max, and I make millions.
00:28:12Whatever.
00:28:13Please.
00:28:14I'm begging you.
00:28:15Look at you.
00:28:16You look so much better.
00:28:18You look...
00:28:20Oh, what's that word?
00:28:22Rich?
00:28:23Please.
00:28:24I don't know if you've been keeping up with my life lately,
00:28:26but I've become very rich.
00:28:29Yes.
00:28:30You've sent me 50 messages about it.
00:28:32I had to block your number.
00:28:33Oh.
00:28:34Yeah, that's right.
00:28:35Please, I'll do whatever you want, okay?
00:28:37I just...
00:28:38How about a kiss for old time's sake?
00:28:41You know, Ariel, sometimes I reminisce on our poor days together.
00:28:47This isn't happening.
00:28:49Do you not remember when we'd go and get Taco Tuesday at that Mexican restaurant
00:28:54and eat unlimited discount tacos?
00:28:58I'm very...
00:28:58Oh, God.
00:29:00Don't you have a girlfriend?
00:29:01Yes, he does.
00:29:02A situationship at best.
00:29:05Let go, Max.
00:29:06Nobody walks away from Maximilian Fletcher.
00:29:09Get off her.
00:29:11Blaine Ellington?
00:29:15Max Fletcher.
00:29:16Maximilian?
00:29:17What are you doing with that peasant?
00:29:20That's my girlfriend you're talking about.
00:29:22Blaine Ellington.
00:29:24Getting my sloppy seconds.
00:29:39This isn't over.
00:29:41Come on, Regina.
00:29:49Just stay away from my man, skink.
00:29:52He's actively trying to.
00:29:56Are you okay?
00:29:58Yeah, I think so.
00:30:00We're getting it out of here.
00:30:02This isn't good.
00:30:02Care to explain this?
00:30:13I assume the article does a good job.
00:30:17Getting into a physical altercation in a bar?
00:30:21What are you, a child?
00:30:23What are you, a child?
00:30:24I'm not a child.
00:30:26But he started it.
00:30:27Well, I don't care who started it.
00:30:29Ellington is a company based in family values.
00:30:34I was out with my girlfriend trying to uphold those family values.
00:30:38No, no, no, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't play the girlfriend card, okay?
00:30:41The onus is you on this, pal.
00:30:45You know, maybe, maybe, maybe your sister was right.
00:30:48Maybe you're too much of a risk, even though you say you've settled down.
00:30:52Either way, I just hope all this boils over next time we talk.
00:30:58What would your father think?
00:30:59On the easy lies the head that wears a crown.
00:31:20What is that?
00:31:21Some family motto I'm not aware of?
00:31:23It's Shakespeare, you idiot.
00:31:25What are you doing here?
00:31:28You don't want any of this.
00:31:29You don't know what I want.
00:31:32Uh, booze and bimbos?
00:31:35Or does page one of the paper say something different?
00:31:37She's not a bimbo.
00:31:40Then don't treat her like one.
00:31:43Treat her like dad treated mom.
00:31:49How do you mean?
00:31:51Bring her completely into your life.
00:31:55Let her know everything about you.
00:31:57I'm trying to.
00:31:58Just last night, we were sharing everything with each other.
00:32:01Okay, share more.
00:32:03Behind most men's success is a strong woman.
00:32:07I will.
00:32:08I'm going to get close to this woman.
00:32:10You'll see.
00:32:11Hmm.
00:32:11And you will be like two lovely berries molded onto one stem.
00:32:17Shakespeare.
00:32:20Yeah?
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Ow.
00:32:21Martina, how are you?
00:32:36How am I?
00:32:38Yeah.
00:32:39How are you?
00:32:40I am annoyed.
00:32:41Time is running out, understand?
00:32:43Mm-hmm.
00:32:43We chose you because we thought you could get the job done.
00:32:46But now I'm not so sure.
00:32:50Wait.
00:32:52Oh my God, do you have feelings for him?
00:32:54What?
00:32:55No.
00:32:56I hope not.
00:32:57Because you have four days to get that code?
00:33:00Or you can say bye to Mommy.
00:33:01Other than that, I am fine.
00:33:06Thanks for asking.
00:33:18Happy hump day, bestie!
00:33:20It's Tuesday, Hannah.
00:33:22Oh, right.
00:33:24Hey, how's your guy trouble coming?
00:33:25Better.
00:33:26And worse.
00:33:29That sounds super complicated.
00:33:31You have no idea.
00:33:33Hey, are you?
00:33:34Can you come in here?
00:33:35I'll be right there.
00:33:36Good thing you've got work to distract you.
00:33:39Good thing.
00:33:48You have the file for the new China branch?
00:33:50Yeah.
00:33:56Long night.
00:34:02You know what?
00:34:05Let's forget about the file.
00:34:16Let's just close our eyes for...
00:34:19Oh, ten minutes.
00:34:26That's an order.
00:34:31Okay.
00:34:38This is nice.
00:34:41Yeah.
00:34:43This should be like...
00:34:45an everyday thing.
00:34:48Mm-hmm.
00:34:51Good morning!
00:34:52Another beautiful day in Ellington.
00:34:54Let's get it!
00:34:54Woo!
00:34:55Oh, Hannah!
00:35:02Well, I guess that's over.
00:35:07Well, everything should be there.
00:35:12I can't even concentrate on work right now.
00:35:15Oh?
00:35:16Why?
00:35:17Well, I don't know if you heard, but...
00:35:22Oh, my.
00:35:23That's, uh, quite a scene.
00:35:25Well, I'm glad you weren't there.
00:35:28I can imagine.
00:35:30Yeah, I just...
00:35:31I hope my girlfriend doesn't think that that's my kind of lifestyle.
00:35:37You should just talk to her.
00:35:38And be honest.
00:35:40Yeah.
00:35:41I'm gonna call her.
00:35:43What?
00:35:43Yeah, can you be in the room when I do it?
00:35:48Uh, you want me in the room?
00:35:51Yeah.
00:35:51Yeah, maybe you could, you know, listen to her voice and read her.
00:35:55Tell me if she sounds upset.
00:35:59Uh...
00:35:59Yeah.
00:36:00I don't know if I feel comfortable.
00:36:02Oh, gosh, she makes me so nervous.
00:36:05I'm sure you make her nervous, too.
00:36:08Shit, shit, shit.
00:36:08Uh-oh.
00:36:12Uh-oh.
00:36:14Think, Ariel, think.
00:36:16Uh, I'm gonna be sick.
00:36:18Uh, bathroom.
00:36:19True.
00:36:26Hello, darling.
00:36:27Hey, Valentina.
00:36:30How are you?
00:36:32Thriving, my dear.
00:36:33How are you feeling?
00:36:35A little banged up, but I've been worse.
00:36:38You should have been with me in my partying days in Ibiza.
00:36:42I was an absolute heathen.
00:36:43I was an absolute heathen.
00:36:49Well, I'm glad to hear you're feeling all right.
00:36:53Uh, I was worried.
00:36:57No need, darling.
00:36:59I'm actually at the spa right now.
00:37:02Uh, I wanted to know if, uh, I get to see you again.
00:37:07You will.
00:37:08Very soon.
00:37:15Uh, sorry.
00:37:17Can I help you?
00:37:20I-I couldn't hear you.
00:37:21It-it kind of sounded like...
00:37:22Uh, uh, sorry.
00:37:23Uh, Eduardo is calling me for my hot-hot stone massage.
00:37:28Must be going.
00:37:29Okay, uh, sure.
00:37:31See you.
00:37:32Ta-ta!
00:37:39Community theater.
00:37:41Mm.
00:37:42Character.
00:37:43I'm rehearsing.
00:37:44We're a mystery.
00:37:49I'll, uh, send you the dates.
00:37:52I'm not in the theater.
00:37:55That's fair.
00:37:58I'm sorry.
00:37:59Mom, I'm home!
00:38:13Hi, honey.
00:38:15How was your day?
00:38:18It was...
00:38:19not boring.
00:38:22How was yours?
00:38:23It was wonderful.
00:38:25I did laundry, watched some soaps.
00:38:29Um, what are you cooking?
00:38:31I told you I was gonna cook tonight.
00:38:33Well, you weren't home yet, and I wanted to go ahead and get started so your co-worker could have some, too.
00:38:38My co-worker?
00:38:39Hello, darling.
00:38:41Hello, darling.
00:38:50Flora.
00:38:51What are you doing here?
00:38:53I was going to call you about a few work questions, but I was, uh, in the neighborhood.
00:38:58And thought I'd drop in.
00:39:02Flora mentioned that you got a job promotion.
00:39:05You didn't say anything about a job promotion.
00:39:07I guess it slipped my mind.
00:39:11Well, you two don't mind me.
00:39:13Go ahead and have your work talk.
00:39:14Dinner will be ready soon.
00:39:15What are you doing here?
00:39:28Checking in to see what progress was made last night.
00:39:31I, um, I got close to finding out where he hit the drive, but I...
00:39:36But close doesn't pay the bills, does it?
00:39:39I'll get you the drive soon, I promise.
00:39:41Well, it sounds like the clock is ticking fast.
00:39:46You are not getting attached.
00:39:49What?
00:39:49No.
00:39:50Of course not.
00:39:51Good.
00:39:52I was worried you were developing feelings for the man.
00:39:57Dinner's ready.
00:40:00Deeply sorry, darling.
00:40:01Urgent business.
00:40:02Must be taking off.
00:40:03Oh, um, okay.
00:40:05Well, it was nice meeting you.
00:40:07You too, darling.
00:40:08Tick-tock.
00:40:28All right.
00:40:34I need ways to fix my image after that bar scandal.
00:40:38Any ideas?
00:40:41Inner rehab.
00:40:42Too tacky.
00:40:44Go volunteer in a third world country?
00:40:47Mm, too obvious.
00:40:49Record an apology video for social media and post it there.
00:40:52Too cringe.
00:40:57Adopt an orphan.
00:40:59Now that is something.
00:41:00Ariel, how good are you at raising kids?
00:41:02Um, let's think of other options.
00:41:07What about a charity ball?
00:41:10Yes.
00:41:10That's it.
00:41:11That's the one.
00:41:12I like that.
00:41:13I like it a lot.
00:41:15Isn't she good?
00:41:16Phenomenal.
00:41:18Well, really, we wouldn't be here had I not appointed her as your assistant.
00:41:21So, really, this kind of all comes back to...
00:41:24Got it.
00:41:25Wait.
00:41:25What charity would it be for?
00:41:27How about unknown disorders and illnesses?
00:41:31I'd love that.
00:41:32Let's get it rolling.
00:41:34I'll start right away.
00:41:35Ariel, you've become an integral part of our company, and I want to have you seated at
00:41:41our VIP table.
00:41:42Oh, my gosh.
00:41:44I'm honored.
00:41:45Me, my family, Kurt, my girlfriend Valentina, and you.
00:41:50Good job, Ariel.
00:41:51Ariel.
00:41:51Well, let's see how it looks.
00:41:59Come out.
00:42:04It fits perfectly, darling.
00:42:05Wow.
00:42:09Stunning.
00:42:14Next, I'll have to get you a dress.
00:42:16A dress?
00:42:17What's the occasion?
00:42:20Well, I'm hosting this charity ball, and I would love for you to be my date.
00:42:26I love a good ball.
00:42:27But I must check my schedule, darling.
00:42:32Is this for that computer thingy you were talking about the other day?
00:42:36My new AI tech.
00:42:38It's going to revolutionize the world.
00:42:41Ah, yes.
00:42:43We got interrupted.
00:42:44You were going to tell me something important.
00:42:48What were you going to say?
00:42:50It's not really that necessary.
00:42:54You don't trust me?
00:42:56I do.
00:42:57This is my first major launch as Ellington CEO, and I just want it to go well.
00:43:04But I thought I was special.
00:43:07You are.
00:43:08I just...
00:43:11Well, you know, if you don't trust me...
00:43:15Wait.
00:43:24So you do trust me?
00:43:26Mm-hmm.
00:43:26So Blaine's going to tell me the super special secret?
00:43:41Mm-hmm.
00:43:44Where is it?
00:43:45It's here.
00:43:47In the mansion.
00:43:51It's here?
00:43:52Mm-hmm.
00:43:58Mm-hmm.
00:44:06We're in the mansion.
00:44:09It's...
00:44:10Mm-hmm.
00:44:11Mm-hmm.
00:44:12Mm-hmm.
00:44:13Mm-hmm.
00:44:14Mm-hmm.
00:44:14Mm-hmm.
00:44:15Mm-hmm.
00:44:16Yeah.
00:44:18Now?
00:44:22Okay.
00:44:23I'll be there.
00:44:30Where are you going, darling?
00:44:31They need me to be on this call with China, so I have to leave.
00:44:36Hey.
00:44:37You have to leave right now, darling?
00:44:39Yeah.
00:44:40Now.
00:44:42I'm sorry.
00:44:44Pick this back up again soon, huh?
00:44:47Yeah.
00:44:48Martineau is right about you.
00:44:51I should start sharing more with you.
00:44:55Yeah.
00:44:56I'll stop.
00:44:57I'll stop.
00:44:58Yeah.
00:44:59It's time.
00:45:00Yeah.
00:45:01I'll stop.
00:45:03Yeah.
00:45:05Yeah.
00:45:08Yeah.
00:45:11Yeah.
00:45:12Did you get it?
00:45:29The code is in Blaine's mansion.
00:45:32Excellent, darling.
00:45:33Excellent.
00:45:42Max, what are you doing here?
00:46:02What the hell are you doing here, Ariel?
00:46:04Or should I say, Valentina Kingsley?
00:46:07You wouldn't understand.
00:46:09Oh, I understand.
00:46:10You're acting like somebody else
00:46:12to take advantage of your rich boss, hmm?
00:46:15No, I'm not.
00:46:17You know, I have the responsibility
00:46:19to tell your little hotshot boyfriend
00:46:21who you really are.
00:46:23It's only the right thing to do.
00:46:26Please don't.
00:46:28You don't know what I'm doing.
00:46:28Oh, you'll lose your job?
00:46:31Your reputation?
00:46:33Oh, once word gets out,
00:46:35nobody will want you?
00:46:37What do you want, Max?
00:46:38I just want...
00:46:40a little...
00:46:41an arrangement.
00:46:42I'd rather not.
00:46:44Ariel,
00:46:45you really do not want to make me angry.
00:46:49Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:46:52Oh, sweetheart,
00:46:53I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:55I want to destroy you.
00:46:58You have 24 hours
00:46:59to end this charade
00:47:01on your own.
00:47:03if by tomorrow
00:47:04I see little
00:47:05Valentina Kingsley
00:47:07running around town,
00:47:08I'll do it for you.
00:47:11You seem extra happy today.
00:47:30I feel like Valentina and I,
00:47:33we got on a whole nother level last night.
00:47:35Wow, that's awesome, man.
00:47:38I'm so happy for you.
00:47:39Hi, Mr. Ellington.
00:47:40Hi, Kurt.
00:47:41Hi, Anna.
00:47:43Yeah, I feel like she's the one, Kurt.
00:47:47Kurt?
00:47:48Sorry, what are we talking about?
00:47:50Hi, Ariel.
00:47:55You all right?
00:47:57Yeah, I'm all right.
00:48:00I actually had an idea
00:48:01about the Cherry Bowl.
00:48:04While we keep reaching out
00:48:05to all of these extravagant venues
00:48:07for their availability,
00:48:08I was thinking
00:48:10we could host it ourselves.
00:48:12Where?
00:48:13I was thinking your house.
00:48:15Uh, I don't really like
00:48:23having people over at my house.
00:48:26Well, if we hosted ourselves,
00:48:28it seems like a more
00:48:29intimate event.
00:48:31And then we could have it
00:48:33as soon as this weekend.
00:48:35Hmm, that makes sense.
00:48:37Okay, let's do it.
00:48:39Great.
00:48:40I'll send out the invitations.
00:48:45She really knows his company
00:48:46inside and out.
00:48:48What do you know
00:48:49about Ariel?
00:48:52What do you want to know?
00:49:07Here you go, Mom.
00:49:09I'm sorry I couldn't
00:49:10stay awake for the movie.
00:49:12I'm just so sleepy.
00:49:14That's okay.
00:49:14We can watch it next weekend.
00:49:17Sweetie, you should be going out
00:49:18with your friends
00:49:19on a Saturday night.
00:49:21Mom, you are my friend.
00:49:23People your age,
00:49:25who you can be out dancing with,
00:49:28flirting with boys.
00:49:30I actually kind of have met
00:49:32this one boy.
00:49:33What?
00:49:34What's he like?
00:49:36It's complicated.
00:49:38Honey, you just need
00:49:40to follow your heart.
00:49:42Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:49:43Sweetie, I'm fine.
00:49:54I just need some rest.
00:49:55I just need some rest.
00:49:59And then after your speech,
00:50:18we're going to dance
00:50:18the night away.
00:50:21I'm dreading giving this speech.
00:50:23I guess I'll just picture everyone
00:50:25wearing their underwear
00:50:25and I'll be fine, right?
00:50:26I always thought
00:50:27that was a little pervy,
00:50:29but I promise
00:50:32you're going to be amazing.
00:50:35Thank you so much
00:50:36for helping with this.
00:50:38This charity ball idea
00:50:40was genius.
00:50:40I need to make it up to you
00:50:43at some point.
00:50:44I was just doing my job,
00:50:45Mr. Ellington.
00:50:49Well, I should get going.
00:50:51Wait.
00:50:52Um,
00:50:53I should probably call
00:50:54Valentina, right?
00:50:56Make sure the dress fits.
00:50:59I'm sure she'd appreciate that.
00:51:01All right.
00:51:01Good night.
00:51:02Hello, darling.
00:51:16I just wanted to make sure
00:51:18the dress fit.
00:51:20It's perfect.
00:51:21I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:51:24I can't wait either, darling.
00:51:27Good night.
00:51:27Good night.
00:51:27Good night.
00:51:32Ariel, this place looks amazing.
00:51:53Thanks, Kurt.
00:51:54You're looking sharp.
00:51:56Oh, yeah.
00:51:57Well,
00:51:57got to dress to impress,
00:51:59you know?
00:51:59Are you trying
00:52:01to impress anyone?
00:52:03Nah.
00:52:04Listen,
00:52:05random,
00:52:06does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:52:10I don't think so.
00:52:12Do you like her?
00:52:14No.
00:52:15No.
00:52:16No.
00:52:16No.
00:52:17No.
00:52:17I'm just trying to make
00:52:18friendly conversation.
00:52:22Yeah.
00:52:23We need more balloons
00:52:24in the dining room.
00:52:28Oh.
00:52:29You're still here.
00:52:31Yeah.
00:52:32Uh, listen.
00:52:34If someone
00:52:35were to ask
00:52:37Hannah to dance,
00:52:38what do you think
00:52:40the chances are
00:52:40that she would say
00:52:41yes?
00:52:43Probably good.
00:52:45Are you going
00:52:46to ask her to dance?
00:52:47No.
00:52:48No.
00:52:48No, no, no, no, no.
00:52:49No, I'm just, um,
00:52:51a fan of,
00:52:52of wild,
00:52:54hypothetical scenarios.
00:52:55That one just
00:52:56sprung to mind.
00:52:58Mm-hmm.
00:52:58Okay.
00:53:01Yep.
00:53:02Um,
00:53:03well,
00:53:04I'm,
00:53:05I'm gonna go
00:53:06help Blaine
00:53:10practice his speech.
00:53:11So,
00:53:12I'm going to do that
00:53:13right now.

00:53:17Yeah.

00:53:25Yes, hi.
00:53:29Hmm.
00:53:30You know,
00:53:30my grandson
00:53:30has spoken
00:53:31very fondly of you.
00:53:33He has?
00:53:34Oh, yes, yes.
00:53:35In fact,
00:53:35he says that,
00:53:36well,
00:53:36this whole thing
00:53:37was your idea.
00:53:39I suppose so.
00:53:42Wonderful.
00:53:44Kind of reminds me
00:53:45of something
00:53:45Blaine's father
00:53:46would have done
00:53:47if he were
00:53:47in Blaine's situation.
00:53:50Wow,
00:53:50that's such an honor.
00:53:52I heard he was
00:53:53a great man.
00:53:54He was a great man.
00:53:55Martina,
00:53:58have you had the pleasure
00:53:59of meeting
00:54:00Blaine's assistant,
00:54:01Ariel?
00:54:02Yes, briefly.
00:54:03She's really helped
00:54:04Blaine become
00:54:05quite an impressive CEO.
00:54:07Yes,
00:54:07yes, she has.
00:54:08In fact,
00:54:08I can,
00:54:09I can see her
00:54:11playing a bigger role
00:54:12than Ellington
00:54:13if she keeps it up.
00:54:14Why wait?
00:54:15She could be a part
00:54:16of something huge tonight.
00:54:18Really?
00:54:19I think so.
00:54:20Don't you, Ariel?
00:54:22Uh,
00:54:23uh-huh.
00:54:23Amazing.
00:54:26Well,

00:54:53Ariel.
00:55:16Blaine.
00:55:16There you are.
00:55:17I've been looking
00:55:18everywhere for you.
00:55:19Here I am.
00:55:20Have you seen
00:55:21Valentina?
00:55:22No, I don't think so.
00:55:24About your height,
00:55:25flowy hair,
00:55:26no glasses?
00:55:28Um, no.
00:55:29No, I,
00:55:30I don't think so.
00:55:31In fact...
00:55:32What?
00:55:34Nothing.
00:55:35It's ridiculous.
00:55:37I better say hi
00:55:38to those guests,
00:55:39but if you could
00:55:40find her for me,
00:55:40that would be great.

00:56:03and hype Blaine up
00:56:04so he can deliver
00:56:05his speech.
00:56:06Then we're back
00:56:06to finding the drive.
00:56:08Okay.
00:56:10You can do this.
00:56:13Oh, hi, Ariel.
00:56:14Uh, he must be mistaken,
00:56:19love.
00:56:20I don't know this Ariel
00:56:22you speak of.
00:56:24Yeah, okay.
00:56:25Ariel.
00:56:27No, seriously.
00:56:29My name is Valentina Kingsley
00:56:30and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:56:33Oh, I get it.
00:56:34It's like one of those
00:56:36improv games or something.
00:56:38No, no, no.
00:56:39No game.
00:56:40My name is...
00:56:41Valentina...
00:56:41Who else should I be?
00:56:42Just be yourself.
00:56:45I'm the Queen of England.
00:56:51You can really tell it's me?
00:56:53Well, yeah, but...
00:56:54I mean, I can be very observant.
00:56:57Really?
00:56:58Mm-hmm.
00:56:59Okay, well, Hannah,
00:57:01it's very important
00:57:01that this stays between us.
00:57:03Okay.
00:57:04Can I ask why?
00:57:06Well, it's really complicated.
00:57:08Um, but you have to promise me
00:57:11you won't tell anybody about this.
00:57:13Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:57:15Yeah, sure.
00:57:17Aw.
00:57:18Well, good luck
00:57:19with whatever this is.
00:57:24Yeah, thanks.
00:57:26I'm gonna need it.
00:57:27Ah, there you are, darling.
00:57:52Ah, Valentina.
00:57:53I'm so glad to see you.
00:57:55Look at this place.
00:57:56I haven't seen a ball
00:57:57as elegant as this
00:57:58since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:58:00I'm glad it lives up
00:58:01to your approval.
00:58:02Of course.
00:58:03You're doing a speech, I see.
00:58:05Well, I'm not much
00:58:06of a speech giver.
00:58:08They're gonna eat you up, darling.
00:58:11You make me feel so confident.
00:58:13I need to be looking at you
00:58:15when I give my speech.
00:58:16Of course.
00:58:24Okay, perfect.
00:58:27Well, I saw a fellow
00:58:28philanthropist outside.
00:58:29I must go speak with her.
00:58:30Uh, Valentina,
00:58:32I was thinking
00:58:33maybe tonight
00:58:35I could show you
00:58:36the AI code.
00:58:37Yes, I would love
00:58:41to see what you've
00:58:42been working on.
00:58:43Great.
00:58:45Would this be taking place?
00:58:46In the study or?
00:58:48Upstairs,
00:58:49hidden in a very
00:58:51high-tech safe.
00:58:52Ah, I see.
00:58:54You actually inspired
00:58:56my security team
00:58:58to create a new
00:58:59hiding space for it.
00:59:02What the heck
00:59:03did I say?
00:59:04I'll give you a hint.
00:59:05If you were to look for it,
00:59:07you'd be staring at
00:59:08the most beautiful thing
00:59:09in the world.
00:59:12I'll let you get back
00:59:12to socializing.
00:59:16Good luck, darling.
00:59:24Excuse me.
00:59:41What are you doing in here?
00:59:49Excuse me.
00:59:50What are you doing in here?
00:59:52Um...
00:59:53And who are you?
00:59:55Oh, um...
00:59:57Uh...
00:59:58Um, I...
00:59:59I, um...
01:00:00You look lost.
01:00:03I am, darling.
01:00:05I am lost.
01:00:07I've been to a lot of mansions,
01:00:09but this one is big.
01:00:12Grandfather?
01:00:13Yes?
01:00:13This is Valentina Kingsley,
01:00:15Blaine's new girlfriend.
01:00:18Oh, yes, yes.
01:00:20From the front page
01:00:21of the Times.
01:00:22Yes, I've heard
01:00:22a lot about you.
01:00:24I hope it was
01:00:25all good things.
01:00:26Well,
01:00:27I haven't seen him
01:00:28smile quite as much
01:00:29as he does now
01:00:30since his father passed.
01:00:33And I trust that Blaine
01:00:34is, uh,
01:00:35treating you
01:00:36respectfully,
01:00:38like a lady.
01:00:40He is.
01:00:41Well,
01:00:41it was a good thing
01:00:42that we were up here
01:00:43to find you.
01:00:44If it had been
01:00:44during Blaine's speech,
01:00:46no one would know
01:00:47you're here.
01:00:49Right.
01:00:51Good thing.
01:00:53Shall we return
01:00:53to the party?
01:00:55Yes, we shall.
01:00:57Very nice meeting you,
01:00:58Miss Kingsley.
01:01:00You too, sir.
01:01:00You seem quiet.
01:01:24Is everything all right?
01:01:26Everything's fine, darling.
01:01:27Hey, Valentina.
01:01:30I have a girl question
01:01:31for you.
01:01:36Oh, my God.
01:01:37For the love of God.
01:01:38You clearly have a crush
01:01:39on Hannah.
01:01:40Just ask her to dance.
01:01:41You just met me.
01:01:42You can already tell.
01:01:44Yes.
01:01:46You read me like a book.
01:01:48I see what Blaine
01:01:48sees in you.
01:01:50You're really inquisitive.
01:01:51In fact,
01:01:52I'll go butter her up
01:01:53for you.
01:01:54Would you?
01:01:55That would be great.
01:01:58Dude.
01:02:02Hannah,
01:02:03I need a favor.
01:02:04Anything.
01:02:05When Blaine
01:02:05is giving his speech,
01:02:07I'm going to step away.
01:02:08If anyone asks,
01:02:09I'm not feeling well.
01:02:11And Ariel
01:02:11is going to help
01:02:13Valentina

01:04:39All right,
01:04:40time to find this code.
01:04:42Blaine mentioned
01:05:01something I said?
01:05:03What the heck
01:05:04did I say?
01:05:07The paintings.
01:05:09What the heck
01:05:10did I say?
01:05:25So,
01:05:25tonight,
01:05:26I'm pledging
01:05:27$10 million
01:05:28to help research
01:05:30cures
01:05:30for illnesses
01:05:32and disorders
01:05:32unknown.
01:05:34Thank you all
01:05:34for coming.
01:05:35I hope you see.
01:05:36on the dance floor.
01:06:04I'm sorry,
01:06:26Mom.
01:06:27I failed you.
01:06:28I failed you.
01:06:51What?"
01:06:52I'll give you hints, if you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful
01:07:04thing in the world.
01:07:06He wasn't talking about the painting, he was talking about me.
01:07:19I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
01:07:36My lord, she's talking about the painting.
01:07:38I'm sorry.
01:07:40I'm sorry, my lord, I'm sorry.
01:07:42I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
01:07:44I'm sorry.
01:07:46Think Ariel.
01:08:16What could the numbers be?
01:08:24It couldn't be our first date, could it?
01:08:46I've got the code.
01:08:56Excellent, darling.
01:08:58I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:09:01Or you could give it to me now.
01:09:05Flora?
01:09:06What are you doing here?
01:09:11I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be.
01:09:15Just like you, apparently.
01:09:18The code, darling.
01:09:24The future.
01:09:27In the palm of my hand.
01:09:30I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:09:33Blaine's a good man.
01:09:36You're awful.
01:09:38He's rich, darling.
01:09:39He'll get over it.
01:09:41My mom?
01:09:42And her surgery?
01:09:44I've been accused of many things.
01:09:47But I always keep my word.
01:09:50Now, go and celebrate.
01:09:51You deserve it, darling.
01:09:55Oh.
01:09:56Oh, no.
01:09:57What?
01:09:58You're on, void!
01:09:59You doè!
01:10:00Navy.
01:10:01On.
01:10:02You doè!
01:10:03Balancina.
01:10:22Hi, darling.
01:10:23There you are.
01:10:25How are you feeling?
01:10:27Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling.
01:10:30Excellent.
01:10:31Care to dance?
01:10:32Certainly.
01:10:33Well, well, well, well.
01:10:41Look at the happy couple.
01:10:49How did you get in?
01:10:51Oh, I have my ways.
01:10:52We lied about our names on the guest list.
01:10:56Anyway, I just came here to congratulate you on your little event.
01:11:04You need to leave.
01:11:05Actually, I don't think I do.
01:11:07Because I don't think you know who your little girlfriend is.
01:11:11She's Valentina Kingsley.
01:11:12No, no, no, no.
01:11:14There is no Valentina Kingsley.
01:11:18What?
01:11:18If only your little assistant had assisted you in researching her.
01:11:24You know, it's funny.
01:11:25I haven't actually seen her all night.
01:11:29Lane, don't listen to him.
01:11:31What is he talking about?
01:11:32Yeah, she may have fooled everyone in here.
01:11:38But an ex-boyfriend never forgets a butt.
01:11:42Ariel?
01:11:54Ariel?
01:11:54Ariel?
01:11:54this whole time you've been valentina that's right this whole time you pretended to care

01:14:28That was a disaster
01:14:40I just don't understand
01:14:44Why would she go through all of that?
01:14:48I don't know
01:14:48But these scandals are exhausting
01:14:52Yeah
01:14:53I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon
01:14:58Right
01:15:00I got a lot to think about
01:15:04What do you mean?
01:15:07I mean, we may have to take the company
01:15:09In a complete different direction
01:15:11For it to gain back the public's trust
01:15:13You can't be serious
01:15:16Something better happen sooner
01:15:22I guess much worse
01:15:24Did she want anything from you?
01:15:29I don't know, Martina
01:15:31Nothing valuable?
01:15:33Martina, I said I don't
01:15:34No!
01:15:57Ariel, baby
01:16:09Oh, you look like you had a rough night
01:16:13It was a disaster, really
01:16:16I feel awful
01:16:18Oh
01:16:19I'm so sorry to hear that, baby
01:16:22Thanks, Mom
01:16:23Well
01:16:24I have something to tell you
01:16:26Dr. Westfall calls
01:16:28Are you okay?
01:16:30What's going on?
01:16:31He
01:16:32Said
01:16:33That anonymous donor sent in the funds for me to have my operation
01:16:37What?
01:16:38I'm scheduled for surgery on Tuesday
01:16:41Oh, my God
01:16:42Mom
01:16:43Mom, I'm so happy
01:16:47I think this calls for my famous chocolate cake
01:16:51I agree
01:16:53I'm so happy
01:17:23It's time to celebrate
01:17:29To the future, darling
01:17:34Drink
01:17:41You've worked much too hard not to revel in your victory
01:17:44There it is
01:17:49Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:17:52People walk in and out of my office
01:17:55Having no idea what's in the room with them
01:17:58Of course, I won't be able to enjoy too much longer
01:18:02Since my programmer is going to pick it up tonight
01:18:05I guess I just feel bad
01:18:07To get what you want in life
01:18:10Sometimes you have to do bold things
01:18:12Break the rules a little
01:18:14I guess
01:18:16Ask any CEO
01:18:19And they'll agree
01:18:20Including your little boy toy
01:18:23Blaine would never do anything like that
01:18:26Well, anyway
01:18:27Speaking of money
01:18:29Let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:18:33What?
01:18:33All I need is your wiring info
01:18:36And I can send it on over
01:18:37I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed
01:18:42I'm sorry
01:18:43You haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:18:46No
01:18:47That's why we're here, isn't it?
01:18:52Darling
01:18:52Darling
01:19:18All right
01:19:20One more drink and we'll start packing up my things.
01:19:25Deal. One more.
01:19:31Anna.
01:19:32Hi, Mr. Ellington. May I come in?
01:19:33Sure. Come on in.
01:19:36Hi, cutie.
01:19:40Care for a drink?
01:19:41Oh, no. I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:19:44Wait, what was that?
01:19:45Mr. Ellington, I have a delivery for you.
01:19:48From who?
01:19:49Ariel.
01:19:54From who?
01:19:55Ariel.
01:19:57I don't want it. Take it back.
01:19:59She said you might say that, but she said that it was very, very important.
01:20:04How important?
01:20:06I 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.
01:20:14Oh, my God.
01:20:30Oh, my God.
01:20:31Ew! What's happening?
01:20:33What's going on?
01:20:34What does this mean?
01:20:35What does this mean?
01:20:35Oh, Flora?
01:20:54Yes, darling.
01:20:56Your appointment had to leave early.
01:20:58I asked if they wanted to schedule, but they said no.
01:21:00I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:21:03What was the name?
01:21:07Valentina Kingsley?
01:21:08You're rich.
01:21:28You'll get over it, darling.
01:21:45What's going on?
01:21:47What does this mean?
01:21:53Thank you for everything.
01:22:00Hannah, did you want to help me with that thing?
01:22:03Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:22:18Lane, there's no easy way for me to say this, but it's time.
01:22:33But it's time.
01:22:39To celebrate.
01:22:46You are going to regret this.
01:22:48I promise you that.
01:22:54Jeez.
01:22:54What did you do?
01:22:56I don't know, girl, but the way she wears that dress, she can step on me any day.
01:23:03Let me see.
01:23:04I knew you could do it.
01:23:05I knew it.
01:23:07You know, your dad would be so proud of you.
01:23:23Dr. Westfall.
01:23:24Oh, hi, Ariel.
01:23:25Is surgery over?
01:23:26How did it go?
01:23:26Yes, we just finished.
01:23:28There were complications.
01:23:30Complications?
01:23:30Yes, but we were able to work through them, and your mother's going to be just fine.
01:23:36Really?
01:23:37Yeah, really, yes.
01:23:38In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:23:41She's going to need to rest for a few hours, but when she wakes up, she's going to feel better
01:23:45than she has in a long time.
01:23:47I can't thank you enough.
01:23:48I'm happy to help.
01:23:49I'm happy to help.
01:24:04I'm happy to help.
01:24:06I'm happy to help.
01:24:07Come in, come in!
01:24:31Welcome!
01:24:37Ariel!
01:24:39Mom, why don't you hang out of bed?
01:24:42The doctor said to stay in after surgery.
01:24:44I know, I know, but I saw this cute guy through the window and I got kind of excited.
01:24:50Are you hungry, thirsty?
01:24:53No, thank you, but thank you.
01:24:55Oh, thank you.
01:24:56Sit down, make yourself comfortable.
01:24:58Mom, do you mind giving us some privacy?
01:25:02Oh, of course.
01:25:05Um, I'll just be right over here, don't mind me.
01:25:17I'm so, so sorry.
01:25:19I, uh, I understand why you did it.
01:25:25And you gave me the drive back, so there's no need to apologize.
01:25:29Thank you for everything.
01:25:33I don't even know where to start.
01:25:37I'm not looking for an apology.
01:25:40You're not?
01:25:41No.
01:25:42See, I'm still CEO and I need an assistant.
01:25:47And you're kind of the best in town.
01:25:50I accept.
01:25:53And, uh, you're still looking for a girlfriend?
01:25:59Well, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:26:06I love you, Valentina.
01:26:20I mean, Ariel.
01:26:21That's gonna take some getting used to.
01:26:25There aren't any starry rooftop views here.
01:26:30But this is my special place.
01:26:33It's even better.
01:26:36No.
01:26:37Yeah.
01:26:38Just...
01:26:39No.
01:26:40No.
01:26:41No.
01:26:42No.
01:26:43No.
01:26:44No.
01:26:45You're so sorry.
01:26:46No.
01:26:47No.
01:26:48No.
01:26:49You're so sorry.
01:26:50No.
01:26:51No.
01:26:53No.
01:26:54No.
01:26:55No.
