00:00:00My name is Claire Duvall.
00:00:02My fiancé betrayed me with a woman who I thought was a friend.
00:00:06Dylan, where are you?
00:00:08Ava really needs me.
00:00:10I'm ready to move forward.
00:00:13Mr. Cross, you need a wife and I need revenge.
00:00:17We should get married.
00:00:19The days of pretending to be a model, they're over, Claire.
00:00:23You've lost everything.
00:00:26And you just don't know it yet.
00:00:28You're not a nobody.
00:00:30Nobody took their eyes off of you.
00:00:32You don't have to say that just because we're married.
00:00:36Claire cannot succeed.
00:00:38Perfect.
00:00:40Maxwell will pay for this.
00:00:42He retouches my wife.
00:00:44Since Christian came into my life, I think my luck has finally changed.
00:00:48So, who will be the 23rd winner of the Top Model Competition?
00:01:00Claire Bear, my love for you, it transcends words.
00:01:11You're my forever.
00:01:14Will you marry me?
00:01:17Yes.
00:01:25Okay, wait. You guys look so good. I need a photo.
00:01:28One, two, three.
00:01:31Lucky bitch.
00:01:32To Claire!
00:01:33And Dylan!
00:01:36Drink more, baby.
00:01:44So, you proposed to that bitch, huh?
00:01:48You're so fucking sexy.
00:01:50I want you now, Dylan.
00:01:53Hey, hey, hey.
00:01:54What are you doing? She's right there.
00:01:56Don't worry about her.
00:01:57I slipped her a little something.
00:01:59She won't know.
00:02:20You've lost everything.
00:02:22And you just don't know it yet.
00:02:28I'm pregnant with Dylan's child.
00:02:31He won't show up tomorrow.
00:02:33Rise and shine!
00:02:37Wait. No can do.
00:02:40What happened here after I left?
00:02:42So, I had the most awful dream last night.
00:02:44No more wedding jitters. You can't be late to your big date.
00:02:47That's bad luck.
00:02:48Speaking of luck, I brought you something new.
00:02:53It's beautiful.
00:02:55It's beautiful. Thank you.
00:02:57I hope you didn't spend too much.
00:02:59Never do.
00:03:00L.E. Express, baby.
00:03:01Things you love don't need to break the bank.
00:03:03Come on.
00:03:04You're getting married!
00:03:06Let's go.
00:03:10Is it really a dream?
00:03:14Dylan, where are you?
00:03:16Hey, hey. I'm at the hospital.
00:03:19Are you okay? What happened?
00:03:21No, I'm fine.
00:03:22No, I'm fine.
00:03:23It's Ava. She fainted.
00:03:26Yeah, the doctors are running tests.
00:03:28I'm with her now.
00:03:29So, I'm not going to be able to marry you today.
00:03:33He won't show up tomorrow.
00:03:35Just wait.
00:03:39He's mine.
00:03:44I'm with her now.
00:03:45So, I'm not going to be able to marry you today.
00:03:48I know. I'm sorry. I wanted to be there.
00:03:50But Ava, Ava really needs me.
00:03:53Come on, Claire Bear. You know I love you.
00:03:56Hey, I gotta go.
00:04:05Get off.
00:04:06I can't get enough of you.
00:04:14It wasn't a dream.
00:04:18It's real.
00:04:21It's all real.
00:04:36Christian, your fiancee refuses to sign the prenup and now she won't answer her phone.
00:04:40She stalled until the wedding day.
00:04:43This is blackmail. Cut her loose.
00:04:45That's Christian Cross, the CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment.
00:04:51Christian, your father...
00:04:53He doesn't care who I marry as long as it gets done today.
00:04:56Find me another girl.
00:04:58I've got an hour.
00:05:00I must be crazy to even consider this.
00:05:03Mr. Cross?
00:05:15I have a proposition for you.
00:05:21My name is Claire Duvall.
00:05:23My fiancee betrayed me with the woman who I thought was a friend.
00:05:27Okay.
00:05:29How is it I can help you, Ms. Duvall?
00:05:31Actually, it's how we can help each other.
00:05:34You need a wife and I need revenge.
00:05:37We should get married.
00:05:40Gavin?
00:05:41Already on it. Claire Duvall, 25.
00:05:45Gavin?
00:05:46Already on it. Claire Duvall, 25.
00:05:49No criminal record. Model with a news talent agency and I'm married.
00:05:59Deal.
00:06:04Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Cross.
00:06:15So, thank you for doing this.
00:06:18If it's all the same to you,
00:06:20I'd like to keep this arrangement a secret for now.
00:06:25I need my fiancee, ex-fiancee,
00:06:28to find out about us in the right way at just the right moment.
00:06:33I'll give you six months.
00:06:35I want you to tell me everything.
00:06:37I want you to tell me everything.
00:06:39I want you to tell me everything.
00:06:41At just the right moment.
00:06:43I'll give you six months to plot and exact your revenge.
00:06:46After that, our marriage announcement will be released to the press.
00:06:49Fair enough.
00:06:51One more thing.
00:06:53I need this marriage to appear as real as possible.
00:06:56That means living under the same roof.
00:06:59Oh.
00:07:00I have a very loyal, discreet staff that will keep our secret a secret.
00:07:05Every need will be met.
00:07:07I can live with that.
00:07:09Gavin will be in touch.
00:07:11Okay.
00:07:16That Miss Duval, she's, um, she's something.
00:07:19Don't you mean Mrs. Cross?
00:07:21Right.
00:07:22I just mean...
00:07:24You didn't even mention the prenup.
00:07:26Am I missing something?
00:07:27More than you can fathom.
00:07:29I want you to keep a close eye on my wife.
00:07:32Consider it done, boss.
00:07:42Phew.
00:07:47Okay, she's walking in right now.
00:07:49I gotta go.
00:07:51Hey.
00:07:52Hey, thank God you're here.
00:07:54Ava was supposed to walk into the tour show later today.
00:07:56I need you to pretend to be her.
00:08:00You promised me last time I wouldn't have to do that again, Dylan.
00:08:03My company cannot afford to lose this commission.
00:08:06If you love me, you'll do this.
00:08:12I guess you leave me with no choice.
00:08:15I'll do it.
00:08:19I'm sorry everything got so screwed up yesterday.
00:08:21We'll get married soon.
00:08:24I promise.
00:08:27You don't know just how sorry you're gonna be.
00:08:31Welcome to the Vincent Latour Jewelry Showcase.
00:08:34With fashion outfits provided by AliExpress.
00:08:42I'm going to be sick.
00:08:44What a two-timing bastard, Ava.
00:08:46Bastard.
00:08:47Bitch.
00:08:48I know.
00:08:49Guard this with your life.
00:08:51Sad as it is.
00:08:52Piss off, Felix, you insufferable parasite.
00:08:54At least Ava's set to win the top model competition.
00:08:57Third year in a row.
00:08:58Your girl's career imploded before it even took off.
00:09:01Uh, standing right here.
00:09:03Hurry, put on your mask.
00:09:05That's the designer.
00:09:06He can never know you're not Ava.
00:09:12Silly, what are you doing?
00:09:14I'm grabbing your model gifting and we're out of here.
00:09:16You're not covering up for Ava again.
00:09:18Especially after what she did to you.
00:09:20Actually, I have a plan.
00:09:22Hand me the bracelet.
00:09:25Modeling our next piece in the Trula collection
00:09:28is Ava Bennett.
00:09:32Behold, the Juliette bracelet.
00:09:35Crafted with 36 exquisite pieces.
00:09:39Crafted with 36 exquisite emeralds
00:09:41and 15 flawless diamonds.
00:09:44This 22 carat wonder
00:09:46graces the wrist of our radiant Miss Ava Bennett.
00:09:53Wow.
00:09:54Incredible.
00:09:55Oh my gosh.
00:09:56What is that?
00:09:57I don't do anklets.
00:09:58I hate anklets.
00:10:04Ooh, I'm a genius.
00:10:06I love it.
00:10:07I want one.
00:10:09Oh, perhaps I could envision an anklet or two in my line.
00:10:15Your girl just came out.
00:10:17You should get in here.
00:10:19Well, hello.
00:10:21That is not Ava Bennett.
00:10:23She does not possess fabulous legs like that.
00:10:26What is she up to?
00:10:28Who's under the mask?
00:10:30Mask up!
00:10:32Mask up!
00:10:33Mask up!
00:10:34Mask up!
00:10:35Mask up!
00:10:36Mask up!
00:10:37Mask up!
00:10:38Mask up!
00:10:39Mask up!
00:10:40Mask up!
00:10:41Well, let's all see what we're hiding here.
00:10:47Is that Ava?
00:10:48Is that Ava?
00:10:49Is that Ava?
00:10:50She's so beautiful.
00:10:51Is that Ava?
00:10:52Where did you come from?
00:10:55That's clear to all.
00:10:58A nobody and now a thief.
00:11:00How dare you steal Ava Bennett's place?
00:11:02That's a lie.
00:11:07You don't want to do that.
00:11:09Mr. Cross, we were not expecting you to come this evening.
00:11:13Well, it's a good thing I did.
00:11:18You alright?
00:11:20I am now.
00:11:26Joan Fairchild, Glamour Magazine.
00:11:28Does this mark your first return to the runway?
00:11:30How do you know the CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment, Christian Cross?
00:11:33Is there bad blood between you and Ava B?
00:11:36No comment.
00:11:45Need a ride?
00:11:52Well, that was exciting.
00:11:55Sorry to get you mixed up in all this.
00:11:57That's what husbands are for.
00:11:59You want to tell me what's going on back there?
00:12:03I did it on purpose.
00:12:05Put the bracelet on my ankle.
00:12:07The biggest difference between Ava and I is our legs.
00:12:10I wanted to get caught.
00:12:15I wanted to get caught.
00:12:17And you did so spectacularly.
00:12:20I've never seen a model command the stage like you did up there.
00:12:23For a nobody.
00:12:25You're not a nobody.
00:12:27Nobody took their eyes off of you.
00:12:29You don't have to say that just because we're married.
00:12:32I know my modeling track record has been pathetic at best.
00:12:37And why is that?
00:12:38I mean, from where I'm sitting, you have everything you need to be a top model.
00:12:42I don't know. Just unlucky or something.
00:12:45Or something.
00:12:52I think I'm going to be sick.
00:12:53I can't deal with more reporters tonight.
00:12:56We can go back to my place.
00:12:58It's your call.
00:13:03Let's do it.
00:13:05This night can't get any crazier.
00:13:08Oh, I gotta get this.
00:13:10Hey.
00:13:11It's not good.
00:13:12Ava just gave an interview.
00:13:16It's not looking good.
00:13:18Ava just gave an interview.
00:13:20She told the reporters that she did not ask you to step in.
00:13:23She said that nobody can model AliExpress and Ventilator like she does.
00:13:28And in fact, she said that you deliberately pushed her.
00:13:32And that's how she got hurt.
00:13:34Wow. So I've been bumped from stealing her spot to bodily assault?
00:13:38She's one step ahead of us.
00:13:41Not for long.
00:13:42Ava's going to want to revel in this victory, and she's a thing for bathrooms, so...
00:13:47Yuck!
00:13:48Gross.
00:13:50Zoe, here's what we're going to do.
00:13:54Mr. LaTorre, I take it you saw the interview?
00:13:56Yes.
00:13:57Yes, I agree. Claire has her issues.
00:14:00No, no, no. Don't worry. I've taken care of it.
00:14:04Don't worry. I've taken care of it.
00:14:06My legal department is preparing a statement for the press where she'll take full responsibility.
00:14:12Ava will be in top shape, back on her feet for the shoot in Seattle.
00:14:16Yes, you have my word.
00:14:19So, what do you say?
00:14:21LaTorre's in the bag.
00:14:23But Claire has to take the fall.
00:14:25Perfect.
00:14:27Let's celebrate.
00:14:37Are you going to join me?
00:14:38Do you think that's a good idea?
00:14:40Because the doctor hasn't diagnosed your mysterious stomach issue yet.
00:14:44I have a different kind of ache, and I need you to take care of it.
00:14:54Wine?
00:14:56Is that a Jackson Pollock?
00:14:58It is. It's my favorite piece of his.
00:15:01It's incredible.
00:15:04You hungry?
00:15:05Starved.
00:15:15You're awfully quiet.
00:15:17More like speechless.
00:15:19The food was amazing. Where did you learn to cook like that?
00:15:23It's going to sound cliche, but growing up I spent more time in the kitchen with the staff than with my actual parents.
00:15:30I get it.
00:15:31Maybe you would.
00:15:33You're nothing like I thought you'd be.
00:15:36Dare I ask?
00:15:38Ruthless. Someone used to getting what they want at the expense of others.
00:15:43Someone who cares more about the bottom line than people.
00:15:48To most, I am that person.
00:15:51But to the ones I hold dear, the ones I choose to let in,
00:15:55To the ones I hold dear, the ones I choose to let in,
00:16:14Make no mistake, Claire. If you do betray me, there'll be no forgiveness.
00:16:20Right back at you, Mr. Cross.
00:16:26Cheers.
00:16:34Morning.
00:16:36Sorry, I must have dozed off.
00:16:38Hold on, let me get that.
00:16:40I don't think that's a good idea.
00:16:45Hello?
00:16:48Hello?
00:16:50Hey, where are you?
00:16:52I found a place to hide out. The reporters are hounding me.
00:16:53Claire Bear, I know this isn't ideal, but I need you in the office right now.
00:16:58Not ideal? Ava practically told the whole world I'm crazy.
00:17:02Just forgive her.
00:17:04Poor Ava. The medication she's on is making her paranoid.
00:17:07Will I see you soon?
00:17:09Sure, Dylan. I'll see you soon.
00:17:14What are you doing?
00:17:17Just in case you need anything.
00:17:19Daddy?
00:17:20I mean, I was going to put hubby, but since you're keeping me a secret.
00:17:24For now.
00:17:32What were you thinking, Claire?
00:17:34All you had to do was put on the damn bracelet and walk the runway show for Ava.
00:17:38Why would you draw that much attention to your legs?
00:17:41The bracelet was tailored to Ava's wrist, and she's bigger boned than me.
00:17:45It didn't fit. I had to improvise.
00:17:47That makes sense.
00:17:49You know, I knew Ava was dead set that you had some agenda against me,
00:17:53but I told her there's no way that you would sabotage me.
00:17:56We're getting married. You love me. You would never hurt me.
00:18:00You're right, Dylan. You know me so well.
00:18:03There's still a situation here, and if you don't do something to fix this,
00:18:07Muse will lose the Latour contract.
00:18:10This will cause a domino effect at the agency, and I won't be able to stop the cutbacks.
00:18:14Junior staff will lose their jobs. That includes Zoe.
00:18:18I can't have that.
00:18:21I can't have that.
00:18:23Well, there's not much time.
00:18:25My legal department has prepared a damage control script.
00:18:30Memorize it.
00:18:32You'll be meeting with the press in ten minutes.
00:18:35But this is a confession. I might not have a career after this.
00:18:39Let's be honest. Ava is our top billing model, and you, Claire,
00:18:44never really took off, despite all the opportunities I created for you.
00:18:50I get it. I'm expendable.
00:18:53And one more thing.
00:18:56Stick to the script.
00:18:59No more improvising.
00:19:07Everything ready to go?
00:19:09My fingers on the trigger.
00:19:11I gotta go. Fire away.
00:19:13Okay.
00:19:15Please tell me you're not using a burner.
00:19:17Where the hell are you?
00:19:20I'm thinking too small, Rikki.
00:19:32Members of the press, thank you for coming.
00:19:35In regards to the events that occurred at the True Love fashion show,
00:19:39I deeply regret any harm I caused Mr. Vincent Latour and his revered brand.
00:19:44I take full responsibility for my actions.
00:19:47News talent agency had no knowledge of my intention to take Ava's place on the runway.
00:19:54These photos would suggest otherwise.
00:19:58Photos? What photos?
00:20:00Photos.
00:20:05Photos. What photos?
00:20:08This is evidence that Ms. Duval regularly pretended to be Ms. Bennett over the last two years.
00:20:13Surely the president of the company must have known.
00:20:16Claire, if you're being used as a scapegoat and you want to be rescued, just blink twice.
00:20:21Ms. Duval stands by her statement. She acted alone as the sole perpetrator.
00:20:27We, News Talent as a company, had no idea of any and all prior incidences.
00:20:38We are done here.
00:20:40Wait a minute. Wait, Mr. Maxwell.
00:20:42Mr. Maxwell.
00:20:44What happened?
00:20:46Mr. Maxwell. Wait a minute.
00:20:50Nicely done, Gavin.
00:20:52Thank you, Christian.
00:20:53Ladies had it under control. I just gave them a little boost.
00:20:58My wife's the force of nature.
00:21:00Yeah, she's had to be.
00:21:04Take a look at that.
00:21:10Here's what I got so far.
00:21:12Upon signing with News Talent Agency at 21, Claire Duval was initially overseen by Miranda Maxwell.
00:21:18You know, Maxwell's older sister.
00:21:20Now the chairman of Maxwell Holdings. We've crossed paths.
00:21:23Exactly. Claire was hailed a rising star in the modeling world.
00:21:27Then inexplicably, her stardom plummeted.
00:21:30Rumors began to spread that she was temperamental.
00:21:32She would show up late for shoots or not at all.
00:21:34There was even suspicion that drugs were involved.
00:21:37Offers dried up completely.
00:21:39They deliberately ruined her.
00:21:41It appears that way, but why?
00:21:45If you want to crush someone's dream, you don't just take it away.
00:21:49You kill it.
00:21:50By that time, Claire's access to senior management was non-existent.
00:21:55She was relegated to a junior manager by the name of Zoe Bauer.
00:21:58And that's when Dylan Maxwell started dating Claire.
00:22:02He broke her down just so he could scoop her up.
00:22:06Doesn't make sense. Claire Duval is the total package.
00:22:10Why would a talent agency tank the career of a supermodel in the making?
00:22:14Because there was more money to be made elsewhere.
00:22:15Someone's pulling Dylan Maxwell's strings.
00:22:18We have to find the puppet master.
00:22:45What?
00:22:59Claire, the paparazzi keeps following me everywhere, but I think I could lose them.
00:23:03Can I come over?
00:23:05No. No, I'm crashing at Zoe's.
00:23:08We need to strategize our next move.
00:23:11What next move? There is no next move.
00:23:13I've done my part and took the blame.
00:23:15No, no, no. It backfired.
00:23:17They're not after you now, Claire. They're after me.
00:23:19You could go and apologize to Ava.
00:23:21You can't be serious.
00:23:24No, I mean, if the press sees you do that, then...
00:23:26Then they'll think I'm crazy.
00:23:28They'll think you're repentant.
00:23:30You know, I'm starting to question your loyalty, Claire.
00:23:33Are you still with me?
00:23:37Of course, Dylan.
00:23:42I'll be right there.
00:23:46When she gets here, I say we put Claire in her place.
00:23:50The little princess bowing before me. Genius. I love it.
00:23:54And everyone will see just how low she has fallen.
00:23:57That little bitch needs it drilled into her sad head that Dylan is mine.
00:24:02True that.
00:24:04Honestly, the one true star of Muse Talent Agency is Ava Bennett Maxwell.
00:24:12Accurate.
00:24:13She's going to push your buttons.
00:24:15Don't let her.
00:24:17I won't.
00:24:23Stop. She's coming.
00:24:28Ava?
00:24:30Claire?
00:24:34Didn't you come here to do something? Like, apologize to moi?
00:24:39That's what Dylan wants.
00:24:40Then get to it.
00:24:49What is this?
00:24:51Well, if you really want to apologize to me...
00:24:57Then get down on your hands and knees.
00:25:01Then wash my feet.
00:25:06Just do it.
00:25:07My feet.
00:25:10Just when I thought you couldn't sink any lower, you surprise me.
00:25:15Doesn't really sound like an apology, does it?
00:25:20You know what, Ava? I am sorry.
00:25:23You know what, Ava? I am sorry.
00:25:27Seeing you like this. Seeing what you've become.
00:25:30Seeing just how far you'll go to feed the emptiness inside of you.
00:25:34You know what? It's not your feet that need to be washed.
00:25:37It's that cold, black heart of yours.
00:25:42Bravo, Claire.
00:25:44How long have you been rehearsing that little speech?
00:25:47I'm still waiting on my apology.
00:25:49TikTok.
00:25:51Then let me be perfectly clear.
00:25:54I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:26:02Did you get all that?
00:26:08Hey, fams. Reggie here. Welcome back to my channel.
00:26:11So, the past 40 hours have been cray-cray.
00:26:15So, let's figure out what's going on in the Battle Royale of Supermodels.
00:26:19I will never, for as long as I live, apologize to the likes of you.
00:26:28Listen here. Claire Dee was about to show all her true colors.
00:26:32But guess what, fams? That girl has nothing to apologize for.
00:26:35Nada. Zilch.
00:26:37Because this intrepid reporter has obtained intimate photos of Ava Bee and a certain muse CEO.
00:26:44Dylan M, aren't you engaged to, uh, Claire Dee?
00:26:48She just got a cheat, I guess.
00:26:50And listen here, Ava Bee. You are one naughty, nasty, disgusting little girl, by the way.
00:26:57So, tune in next week to see what happens on the Battle Royale of Supermodels.
00:27:00I'm gonna go ahead and wash my eyes out now, because I feel wrong.
00:27:05Wrong.
00:27:07Miss Reggie took your anonymous tip and ran with it. It's brilliant, Claire.
00:27:10Oh, that? That was nothing.
00:27:13You're enjoying this.
00:27:15What's that old expression, revenge is sweet?
00:27:18I like the side of you.
00:27:20Then do you want to join me on part two of my revenge?
00:27:23Lead the way.
00:27:27Hey, it's Claire. Leave a message.
00:27:30Hey, Claire Bear. Um, I'm here where you told us to meet. Where are you?
00:27:35Hey, love. The Ava thing, it's not what it seems, okay? We can talk about it when you get here.
00:27:40See you soon.
00:27:50I cannot tell you how many times I was one left hanging, waiting for him.
00:27:55Sometimes he would show. Most often not at all.
00:28:00Do you still love him?
00:28:04How can I love someone I never really knew?
00:28:08Look at him over there, plotting ways to get me back. He's clearly into Ava.
00:28:13Why is he trying so hard to salvage a relationship he cares nothing about?
00:28:17That's the million dollar question.
00:28:23Poor bastard.
00:28:26You want to keep watching?
00:28:27No. I'm ready to move forward. Let's go back to my house and get the last of my things.
00:28:42Just came by to say goodnight.
00:28:44Come in.
00:28:48Is this your family?
00:28:50Yeah. This is my debutante ball. I was 20.
00:28:54Was it a memorable night?
00:28:56Unforgettable.
00:28:59Claire? Where are you, Claire? Claire?
00:29:06Claire, there you are. What are you doing hiding out here? This is your debut.
00:29:12I just need a moment, Mom.
00:29:15Well, your grandmother's looking for you. She has someone she wants you to meet.
00:29:19He's quite a catch.
00:29:20I want more from this life than balls and suitable matches and this golden cage.
00:29:25There's a world out there to explore. Adventures to have. Risks to take.
00:29:29Enough of this nonsense, Claire. Your grandmother is not someone to be trifled with.
00:29:35Well, tell her thanks but no thanks.
00:29:38Honestly, tell her I'd rather die than meet another boring, entitled rich boy that checks all of her boxes.
00:29:45Don't be selfish.
00:29:46Don't be selfish.
00:29:49Can't afford another scandal.
00:29:51Like when Dad left his first wife for you?
00:29:58Like when Dad left his first wife for you?
00:30:05Remember who you are. The sole heiress to the Winthrop Empire.
00:30:11You need to stay here and do your part, young lady.
00:30:14I'm not your young lady. And I'm no longer a Winthrop.
00:30:19From now on, I'll forge my own path and make my own name.
00:30:28That was the last time I saw them before I ran away.
00:30:34They died in a helicopter crash a year later.
00:30:45What's the five going to be today?
00:30:53Endless possibilities. So many to pick from. With Aliexpress, you're covered wherever you go.
00:31:01Dylan, did you see it? It should be me modeling for Aliexpress.
00:31:06I'm so excited.
00:31:07First a scandal and now this. The world is turning against me. I need you.
00:31:13You're not the only one going through shit, Ava.
00:31:16Why are you being so mean?
00:31:21My office. Now.
00:31:24I'm...
00:31:30I'm...
00:31:32I'm...
00:31:33I'm...
00:31:38Curb your appetite, baby brother.
00:31:41This was supposed to be easy. And you're fucking it all up.
00:31:50Claire, it's me. I'm coming in, okay?
00:32:03Claire, their plan backfired.
00:32:04Should I be worried? Where are you?
00:32:06I'm home.
00:32:08Bullshit. I am in your house.
00:32:10Yeah, I woke up this morning and got like a thousand texts from Dylan asking for your whereabouts.
00:32:15He wanted my address since you were crashing at my place, but we both know you're not at my place nor at yours.
00:32:21So Claire, where are you?
00:32:23In the mood for a frittata?
00:32:25Frittata?
00:32:26Who's that?
00:32:27Who's that?
00:32:31So, I got married.
00:32:34Married? When? How? With? With who?
00:32:40It's a long story, Ava. It's too long for a phone call. Stay put, Gavin will pick you up.
00:32:45Gavin? Who the hell is Gavin?
00:32:48Hey, Rookie. Gavin at your service.
00:32:52You.
00:32:59Why would you do that?
00:33:00For being an arrogant prick.
00:33:02You got a short fuse, Rookie.
00:33:04My name is Zoe, asshole.
00:33:09We're coming in.
00:33:12Hi.
00:33:18I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:20I'm Christian.
00:33:22I'm Christian.
00:33:30You know what?
00:33:32I'm sorry.
00:33:34Is someone here?
00:33:35I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:37I'm Christian Cross.
00:33:39Believe me, Mr. Cross.
00:33:41I know who you are. Everybody knows.
00:33:43Call me Christian.
00:33:45I mean, Claire talks so much about you, I feel like I already know you.
00:33:47Yeah?
00:33:49Cool.
00:33:51Claire, a word?
00:33:55Excuse us.
00:33:59No kicks for him?
00:34:05You married Christian Cross?
00:34:07Don't freak out.
00:34:09Too late. Christian Cross is your husband.
00:34:11I know.
00:34:13Claire, this is like next, next level.
00:34:15Dylan is gonna shit himself.
00:34:17You couldn't ask for sweeter revenge
00:34:19than dumping that shriveled little worm
00:34:21and scoring the richest,
00:34:23baddest, sexiest
00:34:25dude in this whole freaking planet.
00:34:27Zoe, we can't tell anyone yet.
00:34:29Swear you won't say anything.
00:34:31I swear.
00:34:33This is going to be epic!
00:34:35Oh my gosh.
00:34:43Dylan, what are you doing here?
00:34:45I need to talk to you.
00:34:47Doc, have you figured out what's wrong with her stomach?
00:34:49Yes.
00:34:51I predict that it will be resolved in nine months.
00:34:53Why? That's long.
00:34:55Medicine has come a long way, Mr. Maxwell.
00:34:57But even science can't shorten the gestation period of a fetus.
00:34:59Ah.
00:35:03Okay, so.
00:35:05We stabilized your pregnancy
00:35:07and corrected your acute need.
00:35:09You're no longer at risk of miscarriage.
00:35:11But if you continue to neglect your condition,
00:35:13you will need to come back
00:35:15and get another transfusion.
00:35:17Do not wait until you faint this time, Ms. Bennett.
00:35:19Thanks, Doctor.
00:35:21Okay, Ms. Bennett.
00:35:23Mr. Maxwell.
00:35:29No, no, no, no.
00:35:33I can't believe this.
00:35:35You're pregnant?
00:35:37Why wouldn't you tell me about this before?
00:35:39This is a fucking disaster.
00:35:41How can you have a bun in the oven
00:35:43and walk on a runway, huh?
00:35:45You know what the press finds out?
00:35:47We're fucked.
00:35:49They will tear us to shreds.
00:35:51There is no coming back from this.
00:35:53Do you understand what you've done?
00:35:55If Claire finds out about this, she won't marry me.
00:35:57I've lost everything.
00:35:59How dare you?
00:36:01I am so sick and tired
00:36:03of hearing Claire's name.
00:36:05You are going to be a father now, Dylan.
00:36:07How can you just still marry her?
00:36:09You told me you don't love her anymore.
00:36:11I don't love her.
00:36:13Ava, it is...
00:36:15Then break up with her and marry me!
00:36:17No, it is not that simple.
00:36:19Claire is worth billions.
00:36:21Or her family is. She is a Winthrop.
00:36:23So you're telling me that that skank-leggy bitch
00:36:25is some secret heiress?
00:36:27When Claire became a model,
00:36:29she had to change her name
00:36:31because her family didn't approve.
00:36:33And how do you know this information?
00:36:35Miranda, my sister.
00:36:37She runs in the same circles as her grandmother.
00:36:39Just think about it.
00:36:41If I marry Claire,
00:36:43the only thing that's standing between me
00:36:45and $3 billion
00:36:47is an ancient bitch
00:36:49who's about to fall over.
00:36:51You mean $3 billion
00:36:53standing between us.
00:36:55Right, Dylan?
00:36:57Of course, Ava.
00:36:59But in order for that to work,
00:37:01Claire cannot succeed.
00:37:03And you have to be at the top of your game
00:37:05and win the competition.
00:37:07Or if that doesn't work,
00:37:09sabotage.
00:37:11Claire won't know what hit her.
00:37:13And we still have the Latour contract.
00:37:15So we can turn this thing around.
00:37:17You'll win top model at the competition.
00:37:19Claire will be crushed.
00:37:21She won't have to marry me.
00:37:23And then we'll tell everybody
00:37:25that you're abroad in Milan
00:37:27where you're having our baby.
00:37:29And once that elder bitch croaks,
00:37:31a series of unfortunate events
00:37:33will happen to Claire.
00:37:35Too bad. So sad.
00:37:37Bye-bye, Claire-bear.
00:37:43Well,
00:37:45after careful
00:37:47consideration, Latour has
00:37:49chosen Claire Duval
00:37:51as the new face of our true love collection.
00:37:57I'm deeply honored by Miss Latour's faith in me.
00:37:59And I look forward to representing
00:38:01such a prestigious global brand.
00:38:03Uh, Miss Latour,
00:38:05a little birdie told me that Ava B's
00:38:07contract was terminated using a morality
00:38:09clause. Well,
00:38:11after the whole bathroom
00:38:13gate scandal, can you blame me?
00:38:15But Miss Duval's not without her own
00:38:17mercy. Especially after
00:38:19impersonating Ava Bennett at her own show.
00:38:21What made you decide to give her a shot?
00:38:23Well,
00:38:25Christian,
00:38:27you're asking me to bet on an
00:38:29unproven model with a
00:38:31dubious past.
00:38:33I could tell you how brilliant
00:38:35she is, or how lucky you'd be
00:38:37to have her, but I'm not going to try to persuade
00:38:39you, Vince. Time will do that.
00:38:43What I will say is,
00:38:45if you don't hire Claire Duval,
00:38:47Pinnacle will unilaterally
00:38:49stop promoting Latour across all
00:38:51platforms, from film and television
00:38:53productions to our cruise lines.
00:38:57Well,
00:38:59you know, when I decided to expand
00:39:01from a single shop on Jewelers Row
00:39:03to an international
00:39:05brand with shops
00:39:07on seven continents,
00:39:09someone took a chance on me.
00:39:11And it is finally time that I
00:39:13repay that favor. So, to the future
00:39:15of Latour, we are expecting
00:39:17great things from Miss Duval
00:39:19at her upcoming photoshoot in Seattle.
00:39:27When I asked you to move in,
00:39:29I never pictured you in the kitchen.
00:39:31It's quite a sight.
00:39:33You're not supposed to be home for another hour.
00:39:35I was going to clean up.
00:39:37Where's the staff?
00:39:39I gave them the night off so we could celebrate my gig.
00:39:41Can't wait to hear all about it.
00:39:43The oven.
00:39:45I totally forgot about the steaks.
00:39:53I like it that way.
00:39:55If a waiter asked me how I wanted it,
00:39:57I would say that. That looks good.
00:39:59But it's not great.
00:40:01Okay, take out it.
00:40:03Burst.
00:40:11Burst.
00:40:29I always wondered what it would be like
00:40:31to come home to someone
00:40:33at the end of the night.
00:40:35And?
00:40:41I don't know.
00:40:43I don't know.
00:40:45I don't know.
00:40:47I don't know.
00:40:49I don't know.
00:40:51I don't know.
00:40:53I don't know.
00:40:55I don't know.
00:40:57I don't know.
00:40:59I don't know.
00:41:01I don't know.
00:41:03I don't know.
00:41:05I don't know.
00:41:07I don't know.
00:41:09So have your
00:41:11arms round me
00:41:13and hold me tight.
00:41:15I'm loving
00:41:17this feeling.
00:41:19It feels so right.
00:41:23Take me away
00:41:25to a place
00:41:27where no one
00:41:29can find us all.
00:41:31Take me away.
00:41:39Take me away.
00:42:09Take me away.
00:42:13So are you ever going to tell me why you had to get married?
00:42:15It's not a very romantic
00:42:17story. And mine is.
00:42:19I think we're past that.
00:42:21The Cross men throughout history
00:42:23have always been adventurers.
00:42:25Some might even say rogues.
00:42:27There were quite a few rapes.
00:42:29More than a few duels.
00:42:31Why sir,
00:42:33how scandalous. I'm most
00:42:35assuredly intrigued.
00:42:37A lot of them died really young.
00:42:39Nowhere.
00:42:41The Crosses were literally dying off.
00:42:43So a
00:42:45codicil was added that required all
00:42:47Cross men to be married by the time they were
00:42:4930 or they'd lose their inheritance.
00:42:51Seriously? Seriously.
00:42:53I turned
00:42:5530. On that
00:42:57day.
00:42:59That was your birthday.
00:43:01You didn't even celebrate.
00:43:03Yes I did.
00:43:05What's wrong with me?
00:43:07What's wrong with me?
00:43:09Music
00:43:15Music
00:43:19Music
00:43:21Music
00:43:23Music
00:43:27Music
00:43:33Christian!
00:43:35My dear,
00:43:37How is your evening going so far?
00:43:39Yeah, good so far.
00:43:40Thank you for inviting me.
00:43:41Of course.
00:43:43And your ventures?
00:43:44Tell me about your most recent acquisition.
00:43:47Silicon Valley startup
00:43:48with a promising artificial intelligence.
00:43:51I think it could be a game changer.
00:43:53Speaking of change, have you found anyone special?
00:43:57Not yet.
00:43:58I'm still searching.
00:44:00Well, then you must meet my granddaughter, Claire.
00:44:05There she is.
00:44:07There she is.
00:44:14You need to stay here and do your part, young lady.
00:44:18From now on, I'll forge my own path and make my own name.
00:44:24Do not test me, Ms. Winthrop.
00:44:38Throwing away a billion dollar trust fund
00:44:40for a whimsical game of independence.
00:44:45Don't you worry.
00:44:46I'll bring her to heel.
00:44:47Don't bother.
00:44:48I have no interest in a bride who's been coerced.
00:44:59Hey.
00:45:01You're so beautiful.
00:45:03Hey, stop it.
00:45:08Isn't it real for me?
00:45:11Promise we'll never forget that.
00:45:14I promise.
00:45:33My meeting's a pinnacle should end around five.
00:45:35And you're down here on seven o'clock.
00:45:37Picking someone to see.
00:45:39Can't wait.
00:45:41Anais Adler is one of the most famous
00:45:42fashion photographers in the world.
00:45:45Christian, what if I freeze up
00:45:46or stumble or choke or something?
00:45:48You'll be spectacular.
00:45:50Because you are spectacular.
00:45:53Okay.
00:46:03A private plane, a limousine to the shoot,
00:46:05and a hunky mogul waiting for you afterward?
00:46:07Sign me up.
00:46:09These last five years, I've had such bad luck.
00:46:12But since Christian came into my life,
00:46:14I think my luck has finally changed.
00:46:22No one deserves it more than you do, Christian.
00:46:25You're the best.
00:46:26You're the best.
00:46:27You're the best.
00:46:27You're the best.
00:46:28You're the best.
00:46:29You're the best.
00:46:30You're the best.
00:46:31You're the best.
00:46:32No one deserves it more than you do, Claire.
00:46:33Now let's get in there and blow them all away.
00:46:45I'm with you today.
00:46:48Claire's my girl.
00:46:49I've got this.
00:46:50I think, Miss Bauer, that we got off on the wrong foot.
00:46:54I think you're an excellent manager.
00:46:56And under normal circumstances,
00:46:58Mr. Vaughn will be in great hands.
00:47:00But there are dark forces at play.
00:47:04Claire's gonna need all the help she can get.
00:47:07Truce?
00:47:09For Claire.
00:47:11Truce.
00:47:16Claire, this is a first date.
00:47:19You're so nervous, are you?
00:47:21Of course, you may be the one, no?
00:47:24So, what necklace do you wear?
00:47:26Come, s'il vous plait.
00:47:29That one?
00:47:35Oh, incredible.
00:47:36Oui, oui.
00:47:38Oh, yes.
00:47:40Your eyes have so much awe and thrill.
00:47:45Oui.
00:47:47Claire, come, rest.
00:47:49The male model, he should be here any moment.
00:47:52And let's hope whoever they sent
00:47:53can match your looks and your talent.
00:47:56It is tragic.
00:47:57We never worked together before.
00:47:59It's a deal.
00:48:01Okay, you're in.
00:48:06It's happening.
00:48:07It's finally happening.
00:48:12Dylan, you scared me.
00:48:13What are you doing here?
00:48:14Last time that I checked, we were still engaged.
00:48:16So, I have every right to see my fiance?
00:48:19Yeah, well, you lost that right when you slept with Ava.
00:48:23No, that was a one-time thing.
00:48:25And it didn't mean anything at all.
00:48:27But we could have moved past it
00:48:28if you would have just returned my calls.
00:48:32Come on.
00:48:33Don't be like this to me.
00:48:35Not after everything I've done for you.
00:48:38Done for me?
00:48:40You weren't just a crappy boyfriend, Dylan.
00:48:42You were a crappy agent, too.
00:48:44I don't know how you tricked Latour
00:48:46into giving you this gig,
00:48:48but you're making a fool of yourself.
00:48:51The days of pretending to be a model,
00:48:53they're over, Claire.
00:48:55All right, you're coming home with me right now.
00:48:58We'll get married in Vegas on our way back.
00:49:01No.
00:49:03We're over.
00:49:04We've been over for a long time, Dylan.
00:49:08We've been over for a long time.
00:49:11Leave.
00:49:15You're hurting me.
00:49:16I haven't even begun to hurt you.
00:49:18You know, my biggest mistake
00:49:19was being too gentle with you.
00:49:22You know that male model that's supposed to show up today?
00:49:25It's not coming.
00:49:26Your biggest break is about to be your worst nightmare.
00:49:30Nobody will show up for you
00:49:32after your little drama today ruins this shoot.
00:49:36What, you think you're too good for me, Claire?
00:49:38Huh?
00:49:39You will never escape from me.
00:49:41Let her go!
00:49:42Hey, you need to leave now.
00:49:45I'm going.
00:49:48I'll see you soon, Claire Bear.
00:49:52Are you okay?
00:49:55No.
00:49:57Dylan canceled the male model.
00:49:59No one's coming.
00:50:00When Latour finds out, I'm ruined.
00:50:05There's still time to fix this.
00:50:07You thinking what I'm thinking?
00:50:13Hey.
00:50:16How quick can you get to the studio?
00:50:18Year one foot traffic, what are we projecting?
00:50:2015 million, conservatively.
00:50:22And if we surpass that?
00:50:2410% bonus is quarterly, straight up.
00:50:35Let's make history together.
00:50:40Excuse me.
00:50:41How quick can you get to the studio?
00:50:45Hello, Vincent.
00:50:47This is catastrophe.
00:50:49My time, it does not extend eternal.
00:50:51Now, where is the lover to complete
00:50:55the true love piece de resistance, huh?
00:50:57And he's just, I know, I am sorry.
00:51:00We are scrambling to find somebody,
00:51:02but nothing is looking good.
00:51:04This Claire Duval, I am telling you,
00:51:06disaster just follows this chick wherever she goes.
00:51:22Crisis averted.
00:51:24The lover is here.
00:51:28And we'll do what a lover he is.
00:51:32Thank you for doing this.
00:51:35He touch you?
00:51:37Maxwell will pay for this.
00:51:39If he touches my wife.
00:51:43Quick, quick, get the lover in costume.
00:51:46Please.
00:51:48Please.
00:51:52Excuse me, Ms. Adler.
00:51:53Let's try not to show his face.
00:51:55Mr. Kress really values his privacy.
00:51:57I have an NDA here for you and the crew to sign.
00:51:59Thank you so much.
00:52:02Now, this is the grand gesture.
00:52:05The moment of dual dive.
00:52:08The height of love romance.
00:52:11Voila, there he is, Claire, down on one knee,
00:52:14ring in hand, a question in his eyes.
00:52:21And you, your heart says,
00:52:23look, before your lips,
00:52:25this is the dream come true.
00:52:28True romance.
00:52:30Nice.
00:52:31Christian Kross.
00:52:35I'll be damned.
00:52:37The bond, it has matured, deepened, right?
00:52:44No matter what life threw at you,
00:52:46it cannot tear you apart, huh?
00:52:51I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:52:56I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
00:53:02Look into each other's eyes and whisper.
00:53:07Hey, wifey.
00:53:09Hey, hubby.
00:53:12This campaign is going to be a massive hit.
00:53:32Of course, top of the list is our reigning queen, Ava B.
00:53:35But hold up, girlfriend,
00:53:37because guess what?
00:53:38We have a stunning newcomer in Claire D.
00:53:41And we all know how she's skyrocketed to fame.
00:53:44Of course, by what?
00:53:45Drum roll, please.
00:53:48Yep, that's right.
00:53:49The Latour True Love Campaign,
00:53:51shot by the one and only Anais Adler.
00:54:01Essence and I say magnifique.
00:54:05That's right, the Latour True Love Campaign.
00:54:08Ladies and gentlemen, fams,
00:54:10Claire D. is literally the personification of grace.
00:54:14And the chemistry in this shoot, oh my God.
00:54:17It was off, off, off, off the chain.
00:54:20And who on earth is this stunning,
00:54:22faceless model with that sexy back?
00:54:26Ooh, yum, yum, yum, yum.
00:54:28I need more, I want more.
00:54:29I need so much more.
00:54:31I have literally been emailing Mr. Vince Latour daily,
00:54:35trying to get the big reveal.
00:54:37Dear Mr. Vincent Latour,
00:54:39here he, here he.
00:54:41You are the worst, I cannot stand you,
00:54:43and you are killing me with the suspense.
00:54:44Sincerely, Reginald.
00:54:47Now the couple embodies the timeless quality of true love.
00:54:50And we are honored and proud of the positive feedback
00:54:55that this campaign has generated.
00:54:57Now, of course, we all know
00:54:59Mr. Vince Latour is gonna make so much mucho dinero
00:55:01off this campaign.
00:55:04But friends, fans,
00:55:06we are only one week away from the Battle Royale,
00:55:09the top model competition.
00:55:11And guess what?
00:55:12Mr. Vince Latour is gonna be a judge.
00:55:15So I might just have to flutter on over to him
00:55:17and ask him in person who this sexy back is.
00:55:21Because guess what, fans?
00:55:24That's right.
00:55:25George Truly has been tapped by the network
00:55:29to host the top model competition.
00:55:31Yes!
00:55:32Oh my God.
00:55:33You like me.
00:55:34You really do like me.
00:55:36You really like me.
00:55:44Who the fuck is this guy?
00:55:46I did everything in my power
00:55:47to make sure the male model would not show up
00:55:49so Claire would fall on her face.
00:55:51She always just lands on her feet.
00:55:56Looks like she's landing more than just on her feet.
00:55:59On a kitchen counter, in a hallway,
00:56:03on the stairs, against a shower wall.
00:56:06Ava, get your mind out the gutter.
00:56:08That's not what you were telling me last night.
00:56:10No, we're talking about Claire here.
00:56:12She's not like you.
00:56:15Okay.
00:56:17Claire, she's such a saint, huh?
00:56:19The Vestal Virgin.
00:56:21If she's so special,
00:56:23then why didn't you knock her up instead?
00:56:26Oh wait, I know why.
00:56:28Because Claire didn't like you that much.
00:56:31And now that she's with a guy that she actually likes,
00:56:33you can't handle it, can you?
00:56:39I don't think so.
00:56:41I'm not some meek bitch that's gonna stand for your shit.
00:56:44I am the only one that's gonna make sure
00:56:46that Claire doesn't win top model
00:56:48from inside the competition.
00:56:49Don't get too full of yourself, Ava.
00:56:52You're not the only one.
00:56:54Who else do you have in your pocket?
00:56:56What aren't you telling me?
00:56:58Just stick to your plan to sabotage Claire.
00:57:01I'll handle mine.
00:57:02Fine.
00:57:03You keep your secrets, and I'll keep mine.
00:57:12We need to meet.
00:57:14It's too dangerous.
00:57:16The usual spot.
00:57:18Room 201.
00:57:19I'll be there.
00:57:23Hey, no peeking.
00:57:25Just like a little kid.
00:57:27All right, it's a surprise.
00:57:28Just a few more steps.
00:57:31Shouldn't you be swamped with work?
00:57:33We can wait.
00:57:34You are my priority.
00:57:47You need the perfect armor for combat.
00:57:49That's such a guy thing.
00:57:51It's a modeling competition, not war.
00:57:53Make no mistake, Claire.
00:57:55It is war.
00:57:56And I'll be there for you.
00:57:59Oh, did I forget to mention Pinnacle
00:58:01is the network televising the event?
00:58:03You definitely did not mention that, no.
00:58:07I'm her wife, Claire.
00:58:09I wouldn't miss it for the world.
00:58:22You should choose your words more carefully.
00:58:25I don't take well to threats.
00:58:27Well, you should have thought about that
00:58:28before you failed so miserably.
00:58:32Let's not forget, I own you.
00:58:36I'll admit, Claire being nominated to top model
00:58:39does put an unexpected wrinkle in our-
00:58:43Wrinkle?
00:58:44You were supposed to end this modeling nonsense,
00:58:47not launch her into the water.
00:58:49Your granddaughter hasn't won yet.
00:58:52And if you play your part,
00:58:57Claire will walk down that runway
00:59:00and crash and burn.
00:59:04Start talking.
00:59:07Here's what we do.
00:59:19I cannot wait to knock off that old battle axe.
00:59:23Oh, fall in the shower.
00:59:26A mix of medication.
00:59:28Alright, focus, Dylan.
00:59:30That will happen after you marry Claire.
00:59:34Now, I need you to go visit Bruno Lundy.
00:59:38Make sure he knows he won't be a judge this year.
00:59:42Convince him it's worth his while.
00:59:44And that old bat, you think she's up for it?
00:59:47She'll do it.
00:59:49Grace Winthrop has controlled that family for 50 years.
00:59:55No one has even stood up to her,
00:59:58except Claire.
01:00:00She doesn't just want Claire back in the fold.
01:00:03She wants Claire under her thumb.
01:00:12Just hold tight, Gab.
01:00:13I'm gonna let you know after I speak with Claire.
01:00:16Morning, hubby.
01:00:20I need you to sit down.
01:00:22What's wrong, Christian? You're scaring me.
01:00:25The head of production at Pinnacle noticed a judge change in the competition.
01:00:29Really need you to say this, Claire.
01:00:32Your grandmother's gonna be one of the judges.
01:00:34What?
01:00:36That's not possible.
01:00:38She would never...
01:00:39There's been a mistake.
01:00:40She despises modeling.
01:00:41She hates that I became one.
01:00:43Why would she do this?
01:00:55My own grandmother is gonna vote against me.
01:00:58I can't escape her.
01:01:00This isn't the first time your grandmother's tried to destroy your career, Claire.
01:01:05I had investigators looking at Dylan and Miranda.
01:01:08What do they have to do with this?
01:01:10Two years ago, Maxwell Holdings was on the verge of bankruptcy
01:01:13from a series of bad investments and poorly timed expansions.
01:01:17Muse and all of its subsidiaries were on the chopping block.
01:01:20Then, they received an influx of cash from a new, silent partner.
01:01:25Winthrop Limited?
01:01:27Yes.
01:01:28The terms of the deal were that Dylan and Miranda
01:01:31would do everything in their power to derail the future of a promising young model.
01:01:37You, Claire.
01:01:40So, all the rumors that I was on drugs, incompetent, unstable...
01:01:45My own grandmother was behind all of it.
01:01:47Yeah, but you were more stubborn than they calculated.
01:01:49You never gave up, Claire.
01:01:51I saw her manage everyone in my family.
01:01:54My own parents were like sycophantic puppets in her grasp.
01:01:58But I never thought she'd go to such lengths to control me.
01:02:01I never thought she'd be able to control me.
01:02:04I never thought she'd go to such lengths to control me.
01:02:07It's like she doesn't see me as a real person, with needs and fears and dreams.
01:02:11That's her loss, Claire.
01:02:14I wonder if marrying Dylan was a part of her plan.
01:02:18I mean, she's tried to marry me off before.
01:02:22Then you must meet my granddaughter, Claire.
01:02:25There she is.
01:02:28Okay, about that.
01:02:32About that.
01:02:33As if I'd marry someone she chose.
01:02:36Have you found anyone special?
01:02:38Then you must meet my granddaughter, Claire.
01:02:44I don't believe that your grandmother would consider Dylan for you.
01:02:48That is Miranda Maxwell written all over it.
01:02:50Your grandmother never technically disinherited you.
01:02:53As her sole surviving heir, Dylan stood to come into billions after marrying you.
01:02:57Yeah, but my grandmother's still alive.
01:03:00Yes, there is that.
01:03:05I just want a fair competition, where I win or lose on my own merits.
01:03:09Not because the deck is stacked against me.
01:03:13Your grandmother's just one judge.
01:03:15There are three others.
01:03:17Your grandmother's just one judge.
01:03:19There are three others.
01:03:27Hey, sexy.
01:03:44Claire, one more.
01:03:47Claire, right here.
01:03:48Claire, who's taking home the top model title tonight?
01:03:50You or Ava Bennett?
01:03:52Let's not get ahead of ourselves here.
01:03:54There are ten models in this competition who got here through hard work and talent.
01:03:58This is a night to celebrate all of us.
01:04:00A time to honor...
01:04:07I can't escape her.
01:04:09This isn't the first time your grandmother's tried to destroy your career.
01:04:14That's all, folks.
01:04:15At least Ms. LaValle has a big night ahead of her. Thank you.
01:04:17Claire, one more.
01:04:23I think I'm going to be sick.
01:04:25I didn't expect it to be that hard, seeing her like this.
01:04:27Okay, hang tight, Claire.
01:04:29Gavin, help her. I'll go get her a wet towel.
01:04:33You want a water or something?
01:04:34Yes, thank you.
01:04:38Just try to relax.
01:04:45Check and see if anyone's inside, Simon.
01:04:57All right, the coast is clear.
01:04:59I've got to be back at the judging table in five minutes, so we've got to be quick.
01:05:03Then shut up and get busy.
01:05:07Gross. Yuck.
01:05:09And I don't even know what I'm talking about.
01:05:12Gross. Yuck.
01:05:14Not again.
01:05:18Ava, you saucy minx.
01:05:20You're killing me.
01:05:22Show me sexy.
01:05:24That belly of yours. Oh, so yummy.
01:05:26That's my baby.
01:05:28Come to papa.
01:05:30Holy shit. No freaking way.
01:05:42Hey, Christian.
01:05:46You wouldn't believe what Ava's been up to.
01:05:48I'm listening.
01:05:50Not now.
01:05:52I don't want to distract Claire, but...
01:05:54Quite a bombshell.
01:05:56I can barely contain my excitement.
01:06:00Where are you sitting?
01:06:02Behind the judges. First row.
01:06:04Hey.
01:06:06Why are you here?
01:06:08I don't know.
01:06:10Hey, wifey.
01:06:12You alright?
01:06:14Sure, hubby.
01:06:16The last remaining member of my family is here to ruin me.
01:06:18But I'm doing awesome.
01:06:20Breathe, Claire.
01:06:22You got this.
01:06:24If it gets to be too much, just find me in the crowd.

01:09:58Jesus.

01:10:24Rise up and show them who you are.
01:10:28Your girl's career imploded
01:10:30before it even took off.
01:10:32But you're making a fool of yourself.
01:10:34The days of pretending to be a model,
01:10:36they're over, Claire.
01:10:38Ava is our top billing model.
01:10:40And you, Claire,
01:10:42it never really took off.
01:10:44You've lost everything.
01:10:46And you just don't know
01:10:48what to do with it.
01:10:50I don't know what to do with it.
01:10:52I don't know what to do with it.
01:10:54I don't know what to do with it.
01:10:56And you just don't know it yet.
01:11:00Come on, my love.
01:11:02Rise up and show them who you are.
01:11:06From now on, I'll forge my own path
01:11:08and make my own name.
01:11:12I will forge my own path
01:11:14and make my own name.
01:11:26I will forge my own path

01:12:25Ah!
01:12:27Get off me!
01:12:31Bitch.
01:12:37Way to go, Claire.
01:12:39You slick.
01:12:55And now,
01:12:57the moment you've all been waiting for.
01:13:01Oh my god.
01:13:03Folks, we just had a glitch in the Matrix.
01:13:05Something that has never happened
01:13:07in the 23 years of top model competition.
01:13:09A tie between
01:13:11Ava Bennett and Claire Duvall.
01:13:21What? Seriously?
01:13:23Something really mature has to be going on with Claire.
01:13:25Really, Ava?
01:13:27Because last I checked,
01:13:29you and Judge Simon Blackwell have been getting
01:13:31a little too cozy and... whoops.
01:13:33There's a mini Blackwell on the way.
01:13:35Yep, she's expecting
01:13:37his baby.
01:13:39His baby? No, that's my baby.
01:13:43Hey, easy. Relax, man.
01:13:45Relax.
01:13:49Get a grip, both of you.
01:13:52Whoa, whoa, whoa.
01:13:54Let's not turn this into a daytime drama, okay, people?
01:13:56We are here to crown a winner,
01:13:58which means we need a decisive vote.
01:14:00Top model competition rules state that
01:14:02in the event of a tie, we will have an independent
01:14:04third party determine who has won.
01:14:06So, we are now bringing out
01:14:08the big guns.
01:14:10Christian Cross, CEO of Pinnacle Entertainment,
01:14:12you're up, sir.
01:14:22Mr. Cross, we'll now cast
01:14:24the tie-breaking vote.
01:14:26So, who will be
01:14:28the 23rd winner of the top model competition?
01:14:36There's only one person
01:14:38who embodies the grace,
01:14:40character, and beauty
01:14:42of a top model.
01:14:44And that is Claire Duval.
01:14:52But I have a conflict of interest
01:14:54because Claire Duval
01:14:56is not just a top model contestant.
01:15:00She's also my wife.
01:15:02Claire Duval Cross.
01:15:16Seriously?
01:15:18This is so unfair.
01:15:20Of course she gets it, but all I have is...
01:15:32She was sleeping with him while she was with me.
01:15:34How dare she?
01:15:36Clue in, Dylan. We need to do damage control.
01:15:38Grace Winthrop could pull our whole
01:15:40loan after this. We could lose everything.
01:15:42Detective,
01:15:44these two right here.
01:15:46Miranda Maxwell, Dylan Maxwell,
01:15:48are under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder.
01:15:50No, this is a mistake.
01:15:52Get your hands off me!
01:15:54Totally epic.
01:16:00Nicely done, my boy.
01:16:04What are you talking about?
01:16:06Are you gonna tell her, Christian,
01:16:08or am I?
01:16:10Tell me what?
01:16:12See that man there?
01:16:14The one that's standing next to you?
01:16:17He was my choice for you.
01:16:19I set you up with him
01:16:21five years ago
01:16:25to thank Claire
01:16:27all those years of defying me
01:16:29and you ended up
01:16:31exactly where I wanted you.
01:16:39Is this true?
01:16:41Is this true?
01:16:43Yes.
01:16:45Look,
01:16:47that day outside the courthouse,
01:16:49that wasn't a setup.
01:16:51Then why hide the connection to my grandmother?
01:16:53Why the lies?
01:16:55Because I knew how bad it looked.
01:16:57Especially after Maxwell tried to use you.
01:16:59How can I believe you?
01:17:01Because we're meant to be together.
01:17:03Because we're meant to be together.
01:17:07I've never seen a mom
01:17:09come on stage like you did up there.
01:17:12You're not a nobody.
01:17:14No one will take their eyes off of you.
01:17:22These last five years I've had such bad luck
01:17:24but since Christian came into my life
01:17:26I think my luck has finally changed.
01:17:28This is real for me.
01:17:30Promise we'll never forget that.
01:17:32I promise.
01:17:36I promise.
01:17:42Whatever it is, fate, luck,
01:17:44whatever you want to call it, Christian,
01:17:46I'm all in.
01:17:48I'm in.
01:17:50I'm in.
01:17:52I'm in.
01:17:54I'm in.
01:17:56Whatever you want to call it, Christian,
01:17:58I'm all in.
01:18:08I would wash my hands of both of you.
01:18:22Are you ready to meet my family?
01:18:26Hey fans, Reggie here.
01:18:28Big love to Bruno Lundy
01:18:30who is recovering from his coma.
01:18:32This is nuts! Bruno just got out of his coma!
01:18:34How can he remember his name?
01:18:36He can't even remember mine!
01:18:38Shut up, Dylan.
01:18:40Shut up, Dylan.
01:18:42I want my lawyer!
01:18:44Now!
01:18:46Meanwhile, Ava Vee has quit modeling
01:18:48to focus on becoming a full-time mother.
01:18:50Yeah, couldn't even say that with a straight face.
01:18:52We all know what she's doing for money, don't we?
01:18:56Shut up, baby!
01:19:00Now, let's get to the real big news.
01:19:02The Crosses are expecting!
01:19:04That's right, you heard it here first.
01:19:06Claire D and Christian Cross
01:19:08are expecting a little mini-cross!
01:19:10I'm so excited!
01:19:16So, you can expect it to be
01:19:18epic!
