00:00I have to admit, we do make a pretty decent team, and we're not trying to sabotage each other.
00:09Decent? I would say that we're pretty freaking amazing, if you ask me.
00:19Not bad.
00:25Why do you want to be CEO?
00:30Um, my mom, she's, she's in the hospital.
00:41She's been in a coma since her car accident last year, and the bills are really piling up, so just want to get on top of that.
00:54I didn't know about that, I'm sorry.
00:58It's okay. It's not your problem.
01:02Um, what about you?
01:06Me? Um, my grandfather built this company before he sold it to Cornelius.
01:13He always wanted me to lead it.
01:15Actually, he threatened me to lead it.
01:19Threatened?
01:20Yeah.
01:22If I don't become CEO, I won't get my inheritance from him.
01:30That's rough.
01:31Yeah.
01:32You see, I did tell you not to judge me so fast, so, remember that?
01:39Yeah.
01:40I do have to say, you are not as terrifying as I thought.
01:45Oh.
01:46How sweet of you to say.
01:48Yeah.
01:48A couple days ago, after the fiasco with Douglas, you said, I love you.
01:58Did you mean it?
02:01I said that?
02:02Well, I mean, you, you did mumble it, but, but yeah.
02:12I don't remember saying that.
02:15But, I would be lying if I said I didn't feel something for you.
02:21Good, good, um, yeah, because I, um, I actually feel something for you, too.
02:34Good, good, good, good, good, good.
03:04Good, good, good, good.
03:34Good, good, good, good, good, good, good, good.
03:52Ah, late night at the office, huh?
03:55Um, we, um, we, we watched the last track of time.
03:59Yeah, we tried to go out the door, but it was...
04:01Look, I'm not going to report this,
04:03but I had better not catch you two
04:05spending the night here again.
04:07Do you understand?
04:08Trust me, we don't want to do that either.
04:13We appreciate that.
04:19Now, that's why Harley Industries can confidently say
04:22that your wish is our command.
04:24We will walk alongside you
04:26to make sure you get everything that you need.
04:28Well, you don't have to convince me.
04:30We're in.
04:31Great.
04:32I'll have my secretary write over the paperwork.
04:34Excuse me.
04:37We are so pleased with this collaboration.
04:41Nobody's waiting for the paperwork.
04:43Why don't we discuss our plans for the future?
04:48Isn't this cozy?
04:50The homewrecker isn't content,
04:53just ruining relationships.
04:55She's also sledding her way up the work ladder.
05:03Um...
05:04Victoria,
05:05do you want to explain this bullshit to me?
05:09I don't know what this is.
05:10She's making this all up.
05:11I think she's after Gavin.
05:13You can say whatever you want, Victoria.
05:16The damage is done.
05:19Is this how you run your company, Cornelius?
05:20No, of course not.
05:22Look, while we were impressed with the proposal,
05:25moving forward,
05:26we will deal with Gavin directly.
05:28No, no, no.
05:29Please.
05:30Miss Lockhart,
05:31we are a top tech 500 company,
05:33and we can't afford any distractions or scandals.
05:36No, this is a mistake.
05:39I have been leading this project since the beginning.
05:44Cornelius,
05:44if you want our business,
05:47this decision,
05:48final,
05:49excuse us.
05:50Understood.
05:53Victoria,
05:54you are off this project.
05:56I hate you so much.
05:58I will deal with you later.
05:59I hate you both.
06:00Did you really just stand there
06:10and watch all of that happen?
06:12After all that we've been through,
06:13after all that I shared with you last night,
06:16was this your plan the whole time
06:17to use me and toy with my emotions?
06:21You really want this job, don't you?
06:23Oh, don't act all innocent.
06:25You got all the help that you needed
06:27from Douglas.
06:30You of all people know
06:35that those pictures are taken out of context.
06:37Does it even matter?
06:40Optics, remember?
06:41Oh, please, Gavin.
06:43Do you really believe this garbage?
06:45Did last night even ever happen?
06:47Well, that's what the evidence says.
06:49Because remember,
06:50once a player,
06:51always a player,
06:52and you've been a fucking player
06:53since day one!
06:54Me?
06:55Yeah, you!
06:56Me?
06:56You!
06:57You're the one playing games, Gavin.
06:59And you want to talk about optics?
07:01Give me a fucking break.
07:01Right now, it looks like to me
07:03you and Charlotte have this big plan
07:04to get me out of the picture.
07:06Huh?
07:07I always knew you cheated your way to the top,
07:10and this proves I'm right.
07:11No, all this fucking proves
07:12is that you will do whatever it takes
07:14to get to the fucking top!
07:17You're disgusting.
07:19And I can't believe I thought
07:21that last night meant something.
07:31I asked you idiots
07:32to do one thing,
07:34to salvage this deal together.
07:37Instead, what did I get?
07:39I got crazy exes
07:41storming into meetings,
07:43and I get clients
07:44storming out of meetings,
07:46and then I get crazy gossip
07:47going all throughout the company.
07:48Well, this is not what I consider
07:51to be teamwork.
07:53So you
07:54are fired
07:56effective immediately,
07:59and you,
08:00because you did not uphold
08:02your part of the deal,
08:03you are suspended
08:04indefinitely.
08:08Um,
08:09get the hell out of my office!
08:11Victoria.
08:30Vic,
08:30I just...
08:31I don't want to hear anything
08:33you have to say.
08:33Look,
08:34I didn't mean to...
08:35Save it, Gavin.
08:37I don't fucking care anymore.
08:39Yeah.
08:41With Gavin and Victoria
08:47out of the way,
08:48Hartley Industries
08:49will be ours.
08:50They played their roles perfectly.
08:53Those two are each other's
08:54worst enemies.
08:56It works in our favor.
08:58Yeah.
08:58With Hartley losing projects
09:00left and right,
09:01the shares will drop,
09:02we'll keep buying them up,
09:03and...
09:04Bingo!
09:05We'll be running this flight.
09:07So this was your plan
09:10all along?
09:11Sabotage me and Gavin
09:12going to take over the company.
09:14Wow!
09:14You have quite an imagination,
09:16Victoria.
09:18I know what I just heard.
09:19And I'm telling Cornelius.
09:21Oh, well,
09:21if you even think
09:22about telling Cornelius,
09:24he's going to see
09:25these.
09:27Yeah.
09:29Just so you know,
09:30adultery
09:31doesn't look good
09:32on a resume, honey.
09:34Whatever.
09:36What do I have to lose?
09:37I'm already fired.
09:39Exactly.
09:40So why are you
09:40meddling with things
09:41you have nothing to do with?
09:43Because you two are scum
09:44and you don't deserve
09:45the incredible company
09:46that Cornelius has built.
09:49What are you...
09:49No.
09:50No.
09:51No.
09:51No.
09:51No.
09:52No.
09:52Hey, wait.
09:52Stop.
09:53Stop.
09:56Stop.
09:57Stop.
09:57Stop.
09:57Stop.
09:58Mr. Hartley,
09:59I need to tell you something.
10:00Whatever she's about to say,
10:01she's lying.
10:02No.
10:03Charlotte and Douglas
10:04are plotting
10:05to take the company
10:06from right under your nose.
10:07Pardon me.
10:08I just overheard them
10:09and they are trying
10:10to use the rivalry
10:11between me and Gavin
10:12to do it.
10:13Cornelius,
10:13she is trying to save face
10:15after getting fired.
10:16Okay?
10:16She's a ladder-climbing slut
10:17who finally got caught.
10:18You said you wanted
10:19teamwork, Cornelius?
10:20Well, this is what
10:21being a team player
10:22looks like to Victoria.
10:27That is not true.
10:30Cornelius?
10:31I think you might
10:34want to see this first.
10:36With Gavin and Victoria
10:38out of the way,
10:39Hartley Industries
10:40will be ours.
10:41With Hartley losing projects
10:43left and right,
10:44the shares will drop.
10:45We'll keep buying them up, man.
10:47Bingo.
10:48See?
10:49Security!
10:50Get in here, now!
10:52Security?
10:52Get away!
10:53No, no, wait!
10:54No, watch my extensions!
10:55No, no, no, no!
10:56Yes, you are!
10:58No, I'm just a girl!
11:03Victoria,
11:04I'm not going to lie.
11:06Even though you were fired,
11:07doing that in order
11:08to keep the company safe
11:10is pretty commendable.
11:15And you,
11:17clearing her name
11:19and not using that
11:20all for personal gain,
11:21also pretty great.
11:24So,
11:25I guess,
11:28since the two of you
11:29have finally figured out
11:31how to work as a team
11:32and solve issues together,
11:34I can make you
11:35my
11:36co-CEOs.
11:47Congratulations.
11:49Nice job.
11:53You won't regret this.
11:54We have a lot of work to do.
11:56Yeah, get out.
11:56Okay, okay.
11:57Okay, okay.
11:57Okay, okay.
12:04Woo!
12:06Oh, wait!
12:08Okay.
12:09I'll take one of those.
12:10Ooh.
12:11Now that was a good pour.
12:13You love.
12:15For you.
12:17I still don't know
12:18why you helped me, Kevin.
12:19Well, you know,
12:20working with you
12:21is a lot better
12:22than working against you.
12:24And also,
12:25I didn't want
12:26those sleazebags,
12:27Douglas and Charlotte
12:29to have the final say.
12:31Is that the only reason?
12:36Uh,
12:37no.
12:39The truth is that
12:40I'm falling for you,
12:44Beck.
12:45Well,
12:46I hoped that you'd say that
12:49because
12:49it feelings mutual.
12:55You know,
13:05this whole partnership thing
13:07isn't too bad.
13:09Yeah.
13:10Yeah, I agree.
13:11You know,
13:11I was thinking maybe
13:12we, uh,
13:13stay married
13:14a little longer.
13:16What?
13:17I don't know.
13:19Some people,
13:20you know,
13:21date to marry.
13:22I was thinking
13:22we marry
13:24to date.
13:26Okay.
13:27I like that idea.
13:29Yeah.
13:29But first,
13:30I need to call the hospital
13:31with the good news.
13:32Yes.
13:32And, um,
13:33I also need to call my dad
13:35for the inheritance.
13:37Yes.
13:38You know,
13:38I was also thinking,
13:39uh,
13:39instead of getting a prenup,
13:41maybe I get a post-nope.
13:42Ha ha,
13:43very funny.
13:44And,
13:45after we make these calls,
13:48what about if we
13:49went back to the condo
13:50and, uh,
13:52christened it?
13:54Well,
13:56we might as well,
13:58since we have the chance.
14:03Yes.
