00:00:00Hey mister, will you marry me?
00:00:02Shelby Trudeau must be married by five o'clock today. She loses her inheritance.
00:00:07I'm Sergeant Shelby Trudeau. I'm here to claim my inheritance.
00:00:10Who's gonna marry you anyhow?
00:00:11The last guy you even slept with was a one-night stand three years ago at Mardi Gras.
00:00:15All right, let's get married.
00:00:17I can't keep living in the past.
00:00:19Maybe it's time to see what the future holds.
00:00:22Why can't you just tell her it's your place? You're a public figure.
00:00:25When do you think you can keep the charade up?
00:00:27The girl from Mardi Gras didn't know I was a boy.
00:00:29She liked me for me, and I want that again.
00:00:31You can't keep pining over some girl you met three years ago.
00:00:35Enjoy the little victory while it lasts.
00:00:38I see you're still trying to rob my wife of her inheritance.
00:00:41How pathetic and pointless.
00:00:43Look how in love we are.
00:00:44Sometimes I forget how to let go.
00:00:46But with you, every day is fun.
00:00:49Actually, he's just about one of the wealthiest men in the city.
00:00:52You are Roy's secret bride.
00:00:54A woman he is so ashamed of, he would hide the marriage for the rest of the world.
00:00:58We need to get a divorce.
00:00:59I mean, I've spent my whole life looking for you.
00:01:02Sometimes love isn't enough.
00:01:06Could it be?
00:01:08It's her. It's always been her.
00:01:11How could I be so blind?
00:01:29I'm bored.
00:01:32According to Mr. Trudeau's will,
00:01:34your eldest daughter, Miss Shelby Trudeau,
00:01:38must be married by five o'clock today,
00:01:41or she loses her inheritance.
00:01:43That un-ladylike girl is not my daughter.
00:01:46Bad enough I'm her stepmother.
00:01:48Right, and hello.
00:01:49We want Shelby to know show.
00:01:51That's the way we get everything.
00:01:59I'm Sergeant Shelby Trudeau.
00:02:01I'm here to claim my inheritance.
00:02:04Well, look who it is, the prodigal sister.
00:02:06Dressed in your old uniform.
00:02:08Pathetic.
00:02:09Still trying to play hero.
00:02:11I'm in the Army Reserve now, CC.
00:02:13I was doing weekend drills with my unit.
00:02:16The will, please.
00:02:19Ooh, the Army Reserve.
00:02:22That's what I thought.
00:02:25Ooh, the Army Reserve.
00:02:28Should have just died in the field like a good little soldier.
00:02:31No one would have missed you.
00:02:32Shut your trap before I shut it for you.
00:02:36Look, you don't have to respect me,
00:02:38but don't you dare speak about soldiers dying in vain on the battlefield.
00:02:42God, look around, CC.
00:02:44Your curled hair and your frilly dress.
00:02:46Do you think any of that would be possible without others sacrificing?
00:02:50You have freedom and peace
00:02:52because someone else is carrying the burden.
00:02:59Of course.
00:03:01The will, Sergeant Trudeau.
00:03:03And I want to thank you for your service.
00:03:10Your father's will stipulates that the inheritance is yours
00:03:13only if signed by both you and your spouse.
00:03:18Woo!
00:03:20That means you've got 15 minutes to find a husband, Shelby.
00:03:22Tick tock.
00:03:35Don't say I'm a bad stepmother.
00:03:37Give up your inheritance and I'll give you one percent.
00:03:41Better than nothing.
00:03:43You stole my father from me most of my life.
00:03:46You will not take what he left me.
00:03:48And what this money could do to help the gym
00:03:51and all the women that are part of it.
00:03:55Really, Shelby?
00:03:57Who's gonna marry you anyhow?
00:03:58The last guy you even slept with
00:04:00was a one-night stand three years ago at Mardi Gras.
00:04:16Don't. Keep the mystery.
00:04:21You've already lost, Shelby.
00:04:23Take the one percent I'm offering and be grateful for it.
00:04:26Right.
00:04:28You're not even gonna find a bum on the street to marry you in time.
00:04:33Watch me.
00:04:38Watch me.
00:04:47Watch me.
00:04:53Don't worry.
00:05:00He looks single.
00:05:02Oh my God, this is totally FUBAR.
00:05:05Suck it up, soldier.
00:05:07You can't let your evil stepmother and stepsister win.
00:05:13Hey, mister.
00:05:15Will you marry me?
00:05:25I know this sounds crazy and there's no time to explain,
00:05:28but if you help me, I promise a generous reward once I get my inheritance.
00:05:32Well, this day just got a whole lot more interesting.
00:05:35So you won't have to live on the streets anymore.
00:05:37Do I look like a homeless person to her?
00:05:39Priceless.
00:05:42Shelby Strudeau!
00:05:43Who are you, Einstein?
00:05:45You can't marry this...
00:05:47Help-o.
00:05:49Shelby Strudeau.
00:05:51The late Judge Strudeau's eldest daughter.
00:05:53That's right.
00:05:55The judge said she was a soldier.
00:05:57He didn't mention she was beautiful, too.
00:05:59Here's a few bucks.
00:06:01Take it and get lost.
00:06:03Don't meddle in our business.
00:06:05Don't speak to him like that.
00:06:07He's a person with feelings.
00:06:09The Cinderella Tale.
00:06:11She's an evil stepmother and obnoxious stepsister.
00:06:14It's clear who deserves my help.
00:06:16And the timing couldn't be better for me.
00:06:18All right.
00:06:20Let's get married.
00:06:36Names for the marriage certificate?
00:06:38Shelby Strudeau.
00:06:41And your name is?
00:06:43Griffin Roy.
00:07:05And congratulations, you lovebirds.
00:07:12This isn't over.
00:07:14Tell her!
00:07:21Sergeant Strude...
00:07:23Mrs. Roy.
00:07:25You have to stay married for at least one full year.
00:07:28Or everything goes to your stepmother and stepsister.
00:07:32You hear that, Shelby?
00:07:34You won't last a week with that hobo.
00:07:37You hear that, Shelby?
00:07:39You won't last a week with that hobo.
00:07:45Come on.
00:07:51I guess we'll need to keep in touch.
00:07:53But you probably don't have a permanent address.
00:07:57Once the estate gets settled and I have the money,
00:08:00we can get you an apartment and set you up with a job.
00:08:03When most people get what they wanted, they usually just walk away.
00:08:07I'm not most people.
00:08:10I see that.
00:08:18I gotta return this.
00:08:21Goodbye for now.
00:08:24Goodbye, wife.
00:08:34Where the hell have you been?
00:08:52Gotcha.
00:08:53Seriously, this is over the top, even for you.
00:08:58This DNA...
00:09:01This DNA...
00:09:03Get it to Detective McSwain right away.
00:09:05Look, as your campaign manager, I need you to be more focused on your image, okay?
00:09:10You'll never catch LaRoche dumpster diving.
00:09:16Marrying Isabel was the best decision of my life.
00:09:21You know, when you elected me to Congress three years ago,
00:09:25you got a package deal.
00:09:27Griffin Roy, just another billionaire bachelor.
00:09:30Playboy lawyer. Best.
00:09:33This, my friend, is where you're vulnerable.
00:09:36In a snap, I can line up a dozen beautiful, successful women.
00:09:40You want me for what I am, not who I am.
00:09:42Look, you can't keep pining over some girl you met three years ago.
00:09:46It's not just some girl.
00:09:48We had a connection.
00:09:50Never had that before.
00:09:57Look, I gotta run.
00:09:58But Griffin, you need to find a woman who can stand by your side.
00:10:02Someone real.
00:10:03Not this made-up mystery girl you've built up in your head.
00:10:07Okay.
00:10:24Remember that true strength is not physical.
00:10:27It comes from the belief that you are worth defending.
00:10:30All right, guys. That's class.
00:10:32Nice work.
00:10:38So what's the latest on the STD super spreader?
00:10:41I tried to call him, but Mr. Chlamydia blocked my number.
00:10:46Who knows how many other women he's done this to.
00:10:49So I was thinking maybe it's time to go by his place and confront him in person.
00:10:56What's holding you back?
00:10:57Andre's some regular guy, Shelby.
00:10:59He's got a bro pack.
00:11:01These men are like wolves with money.
00:11:04Let's go.
00:11:05We'll face this douchebag together.
00:11:26What's your name?
00:11:27I'm Stephanie.
00:11:29How about a drink, huh?
00:11:31Oh, that's okay.
00:11:32Come on. One little drink won't do no harm.
00:11:34Okay. One drink.
00:11:35Really, Pierce?
00:11:36This clown is the one who controls the town's power brokers.
00:11:40You want to beat LaRoche, you got to mingle with the good, the bad, and the Andres.
00:11:51I can't believe I slept with that.
00:11:53What was I thinking?
00:11:55I guess I can't hold my liquor.
00:11:57I mean, the night was just one big black hole.
00:12:02It wasn't the alcohol that caused you to black out.
00:12:08Thanks.
00:12:09That creep.
00:12:12You dickless loser.
00:12:22Drugging girls to get laid.
00:12:24What the fuck?
00:12:25Get out of my house, skank.
00:12:27I'm the skank?
00:12:29That's funny.
00:12:30You're the one spreading chlamydia.
00:12:32Shut the fuck up and get out of my house.
00:12:35Unless you're back for more, I know how much of a whore you really are.
00:12:39You like spreading your legs, don't you?
00:12:41I just told you that you have chlamydia, and you...
00:12:44Oh, my God.
00:12:46You already know you have it.
00:12:48And you don't care.
00:12:51Ladies!
00:12:52Andre Ivanov has been knowingly spreading chlamydia.
00:13:01What is she doing here?
00:13:03Both of you, get out of here.
00:13:09Oh, shit.
00:13:10She can't know who I am yet.
00:13:17Do you know who I am?
00:13:18I don't care.
00:13:24Where did she come from?
00:13:26That's my wife.
00:13:27Isn't she amazing?
00:13:29No, she isn't.
00:13:30And she's gonna cost you Andre once he finds out you're married to her.
00:13:32I don't care.
00:13:33You think you can crash my party and put that ninja shit on me?
00:13:38You are one dead bitch.
00:13:50Oh, nice.
00:13:52Did you see that combo?
00:13:53Dude, she can fight.
00:13:54Look at her form, man.
00:13:59Dude, she can really fight, man.
00:14:01You are hopeless.
00:14:04Hey, swap me jackets.
00:14:06I'll give you my Rolex.
00:14:30Fuck you, Roy!
00:14:31I'll do everything I can to end you!
00:14:34We should get out of here.
00:14:35Yeah, yeah.
00:14:36Come on.
00:14:40Get him!
00:14:43You lied to me.
00:14:44You're not some homeless guy.
00:14:46Okay, when did I say I was homeless?
00:14:48You were next to a dumpster.
00:14:49That's not much of a leap.
00:14:51What were you doing at this party?
00:14:53Working the room.
00:14:54Oh, I thought you were one of those asshole rich guys.
00:14:59I'm sorry.
00:15:00I hope I didn't cost you your job.
00:15:02I know how you can make it up to me.
00:15:04Have dinner with me.
00:15:07My place is nearby.
00:15:09I'll whip something up as a thank you for tonight.
00:15:11Wow, a wife who cooks and kicks ass.
00:15:15I'm one lucky man.
00:15:17Don't push it.
00:15:26Hey, dinner's ready.
00:15:30This is nice.
00:15:33I haven't had a home cooked meal in a long time.
00:15:37It's one of the things I missed the most when I was deployed.
00:15:39How long were you in the military?
00:15:41Seven years.
00:15:42I joined right after high school.
00:15:44My mom had just died and I was feeling rudderless.
00:15:47You weren't close with your father?
00:15:50I was.
00:15:51He was my hero.
00:15:53Until he wasn't.
00:15:56He cheated on my mom with Margo.
00:15:58He was the judge and she was the court stenographer.
00:16:01It was quite the scandal at the time.
00:16:04It must have been really hard for you.
00:16:07It was harder on my mom.
00:16:09She didn't want anything to do with him, so I cut him off too.
00:16:12Even started using my mom's maiden name.
00:16:14But then three years ago he reached out, told me he was sick, so I came to New Orleans for a visit.
00:16:19Here I am.
00:16:20Here you are.
00:16:22Enough about me.
00:16:24What's your story, Griffin Roy?
00:16:27Oh.
00:16:29Shelby Trudeau, come on out now.
00:16:31We know you're in there, Shelby.
00:16:33The light is on.
00:16:34We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:16:37We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:16:40Hey.
00:16:41I'll handle this.
00:16:47Oh.
00:16:48I thought I heard a couple of stray cats out here yelling, but it's just you two.
00:16:52And you are?
00:16:53That's the homeless guy that Shelby married.
00:16:55What are you doing here?
00:16:57Why wouldn't Griffin be here?
00:16:59He's my husband, after all.
00:17:01Mama, what are we going to do?
00:17:03We need to challenge the will, but how can we do that if they're still together?
00:17:06Shut up, Cece.
00:17:07Oh.
00:17:08I see you're still trying to rob my wife of her inheritance.
00:17:11How pathetic and pointless.
00:17:13Look how in love we are.
00:17:15I'll be back.
00:17:18Enjoy the little victory while it lasts.
00:17:21Right.
00:17:22We're going to shred that will and your shame of marriage in no time.
00:17:36Margo and Cece are going to be a problem.
00:17:38There's no way they'll let us be.
00:17:40What if we moved in together?
00:17:43You want to live here?
00:17:45No.
00:17:46Somewhere with better security.
00:17:48Like my place.
00:17:51Sure.
00:17:52I'm dying to see where you live.
00:17:59So let me get this straight.
00:18:01You told her you're house-sitting?
00:18:03That's right.
00:18:04Said I was going to watch the house while the owner was in Europe for the year.
00:18:08You do know how crazy that sounds.
00:18:10Why can't you just tell her it's your place?
00:18:16I saw you from across the room and I had to talk to you.
00:18:19That's very flattering, but you don't know anything about me.
00:18:22I know you take my breath away.
00:18:24And I know that I would wonder for the rest of my life if I didn't take this chance.
00:18:29Even if it was only for one night.
00:18:31Maybe it's better this way.
00:18:34No names, no past.
00:18:37We can just be ourselves.
00:18:39I'd like that very much.
00:18:42The girl from Mardi Gras didn't know I was a Roy.
00:18:45She liked me for me.
00:18:47And I want that again, Pierce.
00:18:50Even for a little while.
00:18:59Stash all this stuff in the garage, please.
00:19:02Griffin, you're a public figure.
00:19:05A lot of people know who you are.
00:19:07How long do you think you can keep this charade up?
00:19:09I don't know.
00:19:11But I have a chance to be with someone without all the crap that goes along with being a Roy.
00:19:15Well, just remember, we're about to launch a multi-platform campaign.
00:19:20In two weeks, TV, radio, social, billboards, your face is about to be everywhere.
00:19:26Then I better make the most of the next 14 days.
00:19:46This place is insane. The owner must really trust you.
00:19:50Yep, we're pretty tight.
00:19:54Here, let me show you to your room.
00:20:01I can't keep living in the past.
00:20:04Maybe it's time to see what the future holds.
00:20:16Goodbye, mystery lover.
00:20:24I take it things are going well with Xena Warrior Princess?
00:20:27Oh, she's so exciting and competitive.
00:20:30Keeps me on my toes.
00:20:32And so damn beautiful.
00:20:34Face sweaty, no makeup, so damn real.
00:20:36When do I get to meet her?
00:20:38Her military background and work with actress women will be a real asset for both female and male voters.
00:20:43Dial it back, Pierce. We're in the early stages.
00:20:46Alright, well, don't take too long.
00:20:48You married her for the campaign.
00:20:50And it's not like she can dump you once she finds out.
00:20:53She needs you for her inheritance.
00:21:03Good.
00:21:10Hey.
00:21:11I'm taking care of you tonight.
00:21:13Oh, I like the sound of that.
00:21:15Did you mind that I got a woman? I'm talking food here.
00:21:18Alright, in that case, surprise me.
00:21:21Trust me, I'm full of surprises.
00:21:24I bet you are.
00:21:26See you soon.
00:21:36Gotcha, sis.
00:21:38So this is where you've been hiding out.
00:21:51Did you want some of my wine?
00:22:08No.
00:22:19I turned off your alarm.
00:22:21You obviously needed to sleep.
00:22:23We can run tonight.
00:22:25P.S. You snore, but it's super cute.
00:22:28I do not snore, Griffin Roy.
00:22:39What are you doing in a place like this?
00:22:41I live here.
00:22:43When did you move in?
00:22:45Last week. We're house-sitting.
00:22:47Yeah, I've heard that one before.
00:22:49Listen, this is an exclusive neighborhood.
00:22:51Thieves are always trying to break in.
00:22:53Who are you calling a thief?
00:22:55Please step out. Now.
00:22:59What the hell are you doing?
00:23:01Just routine.
00:23:03I'm not a thief.
00:23:05What the hell are you doing?
00:23:07Just routine inspection.
00:23:11Let's see what else you're hiding here.
00:23:21Get your filthy hands off my wife!
00:23:23What?
00:23:29Oh, cool.
00:23:31I thought I was saving you, but it looks like you got it.
00:23:34Oh, look out!
00:23:38Damn, lady.
00:23:40You make it look easy.
00:23:42Are you hurt?
00:23:44Just my pride.
00:23:48Looks like you get a flat.
00:23:50Let's get out of here. We can take my car.
00:23:52This is yours?
00:23:54Borrowed it from a friend.
00:23:56Right.
00:24:00I know all the guards who work here,
00:24:02and you sure as hell aren't them.
00:24:04Who the hell are you, man?
00:24:06Some kind of big shot or something?
00:24:08Oh, I'm your worst nightmare.
00:24:12All right.
00:24:14You're under arrest.
00:24:16What the hell is going on?
00:24:26Well, that didn't go as planned.
00:24:28Mama, this is all your fault.
00:24:30You pushed me to hire those thugs to humiliate Shelby,
00:24:32and now my money's wasted and she got off scot-free.
00:24:34Eyes on the prize, Cece.
00:24:36Once we inherit the entire Trudeau estate,
00:24:38this'll be pocket change.
00:24:40Yeah.
00:24:42And who would have thought that bum
00:24:44would have got the police involved in all this mess?
00:24:46I don't believe he's a bum.
00:24:48I mean, how can a homeless man be so clever?
00:24:50No matter whether he's a tramp or not,
00:24:52he married Shelby for her money.
00:24:54Offer him a better deal, and he'll leave her.
00:24:56We annul the marriage,
00:24:58and claim the entire estate.
00:25:00Oh, isn't Victoria Wilcox
00:25:02the port-a-potty billionaire
00:25:04looking for a new gigolo?
00:25:06That old cougar?
00:25:08Oh, Cece, honey,
00:25:10when they're that age, they're not cougars.
00:25:12They're saber-toothed tigers.
00:25:18Well, then we just got to make him an offer
00:25:20he can't refuse.
00:25:28You really should have iced these right away.
00:25:30I realize that now.
00:25:32I've only ever sparred with gloves on,
00:25:34never thrown a bare-knuckle punch before.
00:25:38What?
00:25:40Did I just hand in my man card?
00:25:42No, you knocked a guy out with one punch.
00:25:44Your man card is fully intact.
00:25:48You just sounded like a prep school rich boy
00:25:50for a second.
00:25:54Not just for today, but for everything.
00:25:56It's been really lonely
00:25:58since my dad died,
00:26:00and it's nice having someone on my side.
00:26:02There's no need to thank me.
00:26:04I am your husband.
00:26:08Close your eyes.
00:26:10I am your husband.
00:26:14Close your eyes.
00:26:24Okay.
00:26:26Fair is fair.
00:26:28I owe you one.
00:26:40Oh, my God.
00:26:48Sorry.
00:26:50I know we're just pretending.
00:26:52Right.
00:26:54Pretending.
00:26:58I'm gonna...
00:27:00I'm gonna go for a run.
00:27:04Okay, I'll come with...
00:27:10What if it's just me?
00:27:12Wouldn't that be ironic?
00:27:14The first woman I'm into for so long is not into me.
00:27:16Fuck!
00:27:32Griffin kissed me,
00:27:34and it felt just like that night three years ago.
00:27:36What's wrong with me?
00:27:38How can I feel the exact same way
00:27:40for two different men?
00:27:52I don't know.
00:27:54He looks like a wet street dog.
00:27:56I'll shower and a haircut,
00:27:58and he'll be marginally presentable.
00:28:00Hey, you!
00:28:02What?
00:28:06We got a proposition for you.
00:28:08How'd you like to be richer than you ever imagined?
00:28:10Well, that'd be a dream, ma'am.
00:28:12Get in.
00:28:26Are you sure he's not homeless?
00:28:28He eats like a dirty pig.
00:28:30So you want me to divorce Shelby
00:28:32and marry
00:28:34Victoria Wilcox,
00:28:36the shithouse billionaire?
00:28:42You will refer to them as
00:28:44Porter Party's young man.
00:28:46We know you're after
00:28:48Shelby's inheritance,
00:28:50but she's never gonna see it.
00:28:52Well,
00:28:54he'll do.
00:28:56Oh.
00:28:58Oh, he'll do just nicely.
00:29:02Wait a minute.
00:29:04Have we met before?
00:29:06Because you look real familiar.
00:29:08Oh, no.
00:29:10Nope, I don't think I run in your
00:29:12kinds of circles,
00:29:14Miss Wilcox.
00:29:16The first document are official divorce papers.
00:29:20The first document
00:29:22are official divorce papers.
00:29:24And you will also be paid
00:29:26$20,000 a month to provide
00:29:28intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:29:32Hmm.
00:29:34Oh, you don't need to worry, boy.
00:29:36Because I have the libido of a 26-year-old.
00:29:3826-year-old.
00:29:52I don't understand.
00:29:54This says...
00:29:56You're under arrest for pandering.
00:29:58Detective McSwain,
00:30:00this woman
00:30:02has tried to recruit me
00:30:04as a sex worker.
00:30:06That's a class C felony.
00:30:08He's lying.
00:30:10And you will also be paid
00:30:12$20,000 a month to provide
00:30:14intimate services
00:30:16of a sexual nature.
00:30:20Detective!
00:30:22Detective!
00:30:24There must be some misunderstanding.
00:30:26There's no nonsense going on here.
00:30:28No, you can't arrest me on the word of that bum.
00:30:30He set me up.
00:30:32Detective McSwain, it's getting late.
00:30:34I'd like to go home and see my wife.
00:30:42Wait.
00:30:44You have made a big mistake
00:30:46rejecting me. I'm a woman
00:30:48of wealth and power
00:30:50that you cannot fathom.
00:30:52I will make you pay very dearly
00:30:54for this. I don't think anyone
00:30:56mentioned my last name.
00:30:58It's Roy.
00:31:04Well, I knew
00:31:06you looked familiar, you see.
00:31:08I'm just an old woman. You could forgive me.
00:31:10Get out of my face.
00:31:14Pardon me.
00:31:16Excuse me.
00:31:20Alright, we got her in the car.
00:31:22How far do you want this to go?
00:31:24Put the fear of God in there.
00:31:26Mug shot, fingerprints, thorax.
00:31:28Then in the morning, drop the charges
00:31:30before the press gets wind.
00:31:32Pierce her to have your hide.
00:31:34You got it, Griff.
00:31:46Where have you been?
00:31:48I was worried you were gone so long.
00:31:50Yeah?
00:31:52Yeah.
00:31:54Uh, are you hungry? I can heat up some leftovers.
00:31:56Yeah, I'd like that.
00:32:02Did that just happen?
00:32:04Maybe you have a shot with her after all.
00:32:16Oh, baby.
00:32:18My little girl.
00:32:20I will never forget the humiliation
00:32:22that man has caused us.
00:32:24Don't you worry, Mama.
00:32:26I have a plan.
00:32:28I had all night to think about it in that cold,
00:32:30hard cell.
00:32:32If he doesn't want to divorce Shelby, fine.
00:32:34We'll just force Shelby
00:32:36to divorce him.
00:32:38And I know just where to hit
00:32:40it where it hurts.
00:32:42Amazing.
00:32:44Amazing.
00:33:00I think we shaved 30 seconds off that time.
00:33:02I thought I was competitive.
00:33:04You even compete with yourself.
00:33:16You're not growing.
00:33:18You're dying.
00:33:20I, um...
00:33:22I'm gonna go shower.
00:33:24Me too.
00:33:27Get a grip, Shelby.
00:33:29Zoe's hot.
00:33:31You've been around dozens of smoking hot men
00:33:33in the service.
00:33:35What makes him any different?
00:33:37He just is.
00:33:42Hey, Zara.
00:33:44Shelby, you have to get here right away.
00:33:46Buford's kicking us out the gym.
00:33:52I'm sorry, my hands are tied.
00:33:56He says we have to leave.
00:33:58Okay, I got this.
00:34:00Mr. Buford, what are you doing?
00:34:02This is my place of business.
00:34:04You're done here.
00:34:06I sold the building.
00:34:08The new owners want you out.
00:34:10That's illegal.
00:34:12I have a lease.
00:34:14They've got a break clause for new management,
00:34:16and they've decided to activate it.
00:34:18Who the hell is they?
00:34:20That would be us.
00:34:22Cliff, we can take it from here.
00:34:24Sure thing.
00:34:26Pleasure doing business with you, ladies.
00:34:28I know you used all your army money
00:34:30for this gym,
00:34:32but you can get it back.
00:34:34All you have to do is sign this divorce petition.
00:34:36Get a divorce,
00:34:38give up your inheritance,
00:34:40and then you can keep your
00:34:42dinky, smelly gym.
00:34:44I bet you want to hit me so bad.
00:34:46Not so tough now, are you, Shelby?
00:34:48Screw you.
00:34:50I'll just pack up and find a new location.
00:34:52Oh, sorry.
00:34:54The building is now closed for
00:34:56renovations,
00:34:58and everything inside now belongs to me.
00:35:00Of course,
00:35:02you could sue,
00:35:04but that would take months.
00:35:06Well,
00:35:08I'll see you in the gym.
00:35:10Bye.
00:35:12Well,
00:35:14what would happen to your gym now, Shelby?
00:35:16That's blackmail.
00:35:18We like to call it capitalism.
00:35:20You don't sign, we close the gym,
00:35:22and then you lose everything.
00:35:26Think about what you're doing.
00:35:28This gym is a lifeline for so many women.
00:35:30I won't let you take it from them.
00:35:32You can beg,
00:35:34but I won't budge.
00:35:36Be a smart girl
00:35:38and sign the papers by tomorrow,
00:35:40so you can kiss your Valkyrie
00:35:42Fight Club goodbye.
00:35:44And watch us turn it into
00:35:46Valkyrie
00:35:48Strip Club.
00:35:50This is not a good idea.
00:35:52There's poles and everything.
00:35:54Plenty of girls.
00:35:56They're cute.
00:35:58Cute enough.
00:36:00I'm not here because I give a damn if you win.
00:36:02I'm here to make sure that
00:36:04Griffin Roy doesn't.
00:36:06Well, the enemy of my enemy
00:36:08is my friend.
00:36:10The fuck you say?
00:36:12What exactly did Roy do
00:36:14to earn your loathing?
00:36:16He partnered up against me
00:36:18with a She-Warrior.
00:36:20I want to see them both destroyed.
00:36:22Well,
00:36:24I don't want to see
00:36:26any of that.
00:36:28Destroyed?
00:36:30Well, with your connections
00:36:32and my political might,
00:36:34I think that might be able to be arranged.
00:36:44LaRose got Andre.
00:36:46What are we going to do about this?
00:36:48Nothing.
00:36:50We do not want these two pairing up, alright?
00:36:52This is political suicide.
00:36:54Just talk to Shelby.
00:36:56Um, hell no.
00:36:58Let them do their best.
00:37:00Mark my words, this is going to come back to bite you in the ass.
00:37:08Hello, Shelby.
00:37:10Griffin,
00:37:12we need to talk.
00:37:20Shelby, what's going on?
00:37:22You sounded tense on the phone.
00:37:24I have so many
00:37:26missed moments,
00:37:28things I should have said or done,
00:37:30chances that were lost that might have been
00:37:32pivotal to my life.
00:37:34I don't want you to be another moment that I miss.
00:37:48You first.
00:37:54You first.
00:38:24You first.
00:38:54That was...
00:38:56That was...
00:38:58fucking amazing.
00:39:10Griffin?
00:39:12Where are you going?
00:39:14Griffin?
00:39:16Griffin?
00:39:18Explain yourself.
00:39:20Toothbrush.
00:39:22PJs,
00:39:24this is Jacques.
00:39:26Why?
00:39:28You're my wife.
00:39:30I sleep with you now.
00:39:32We probably should have talked this through.
00:39:34Yeah.
00:39:36You said you had missed moments.
00:39:38I've had them too.
00:39:40You will not be one of them.
00:39:42I know we
00:39:44said we were pretending, but
00:39:46I want to give us a chance.
00:39:48A real one.
00:39:50Oh?
00:40:20...
00:40:22...
00:40:24...
00:40:26...
00:40:28...
00:40:30...
00:40:32...
00:40:34...
00:40:36...
00:40:38I now pronounce you
00:40:40man and wife.
00:40:42Qu'est-ce
00:40:44qu'on a la soirée?
00:40:46...
00:40:48...
00:40:50...
00:40:52...
00:40:54...
00:40:56...
00:40:58...
00:41:00...
00:41:02Cece, meet me at the gym in one hour.
00:41:04We can go over the divorce papers.
00:41:06...
00:41:08...
00:41:10Goodbye, my husband.
00:41:12...
00:41:14...
00:41:16...
00:41:18...
00:41:20I knew something must have happened.
00:41:22...
00:41:24...
00:41:26...
00:41:28Hello.
00:41:30Pierce, I need you
00:41:32to use all your connections to find out what Cece
00:41:34and Margot Trudeau did to Shelby yesterday.
00:41:36...
00:41:38Because of them,
00:41:40my wife is divorcing me.
00:41:42It's five in the morning.
00:41:44You have an hour.
00:41:48...
00:41:52How did Cece get the money to buy the entire
00:41:54Rampart Drive building?
00:41:56She and Margot Trudeau are using the Trudeau mansion as collateral.
00:41:58Stupid.
00:42:00Good for us, bad for them.
00:42:02And the property title?
00:42:04Still in escrow. The title hasn't been transferred yet.
00:42:06Make sure it is
00:42:08in your name.
00:42:10You're about to be the proud owner of a mid-rise building
00:42:12Oh, goody, goody.
00:42:14...
00:42:16...
00:42:18Talk to me, McSwain.
00:42:20I showed the fake guards in lockup
00:42:22Cece Trudeau's mugshot. You're right.
00:42:24She's the one who hired them to rough up your wife.
00:42:26How'd you know?
00:42:28Had her M.O. written all over it.
00:42:30I take it the kid gloves are off this time?
00:42:32Oh yeah. Cece Trudeau thinks she's
00:42:34untouchable. Let's show her just how wrong
00:42:36she is.
00:42:38...
00:42:40...
00:42:42...
00:42:44I'm glad you
00:42:46finally came to your senses, Shelby.
00:42:48I definitely have.
00:42:50Showtime.
00:42:52I'm your campaign manager
00:42:54not some hired muscle.
00:42:56Here's what I think about your
00:42:58agreement.
00:43:00Did you
00:43:02see that? Did you see that? She chose me, man.
00:43:04She chose me.
00:43:06Well, hell. Looks like she did.
00:43:08You fucking
00:43:10bitch!
00:43:12That's her cue.
00:43:16Say goodbye to your
00:43:18gym, Shelby. You're gonna lose everything.
00:43:20You know, at least I still have
00:43:22my self-respect, which is more than I can say for you.
00:43:24Don't be hasty,
00:43:26Cece. She's basically a man. You'll get hurt.
00:43:28I will find a way
00:43:30to reclaim what is rightfully mine,
00:43:32but I will never agree to your
00:43:34demands.
00:43:36Reclaim what's yours? You're never gonna
00:43:38step foot in your precious gym ever
00:43:40again.
00:43:42That will be
00:43:44difficult to enforce since I now own
00:43:46the building.
00:43:48Who the hell are you?
00:43:50Pierce Durand, the new owner of
00:43:52222 Rampart Drive.
00:43:54What?
00:43:56Your deal
00:43:58fell out of escrow.
00:44:00I swooped in and bought it.
00:44:02That's impossible. I own it.
00:44:04Let me spell this out in a way
00:44:06that even an imbecile will understand.
00:44:08I outbid you.
00:44:10The building is mine.
00:44:12Now scram.
00:44:14I'm here.
00:44:16Ms. Trudeau, I want to ensure
00:44:18you that your lease is secure.
00:44:20The only change will be a
00:44:2240% rent reduction.
00:44:24That's
00:44:26unbelievable. Are you sure you can afford that?
00:44:28Oh, yeah.
00:44:30Thank you, Mr. Durand.
00:44:32The gym means a lot to the women
00:44:34in this community.
00:44:40Cece Trudeau,
00:44:42you're under arrest for extortion.
00:44:44The fake guards identified you as the one
00:44:46who paid them to attack Shelby Trudeau.
00:44:48Okay, well,
00:44:50but that was last week. You can't arrest me now.
00:44:52We most certainly can,
00:44:54and this time the charges won't be dropped.
00:44:56No! No!
00:44:58You can't take my girl!
00:45:00I'm coming after you. I'm never going to forget this
00:45:02when I get out.
00:45:04You're mine.
00:45:12Zara,
00:45:14call everyone.
00:45:16Valkyrie Fight Club is back in business.
00:45:24Well,
00:45:26aren't you going to go over there?
00:45:28You're the one that orchestrated this whole thing.
00:45:30No.
00:45:32It's her victory.
00:45:34I merely did what a husband shouldn't
00:45:36to ensure her happiness.
00:45:38That's my reward.
00:45:40That is some wild shit you just spouted.
00:45:42This girl is seriously causing you to lose it, Griff.
00:45:44You worry too much.
00:45:46And you don't worry enough.
00:45:48We have a campaign to win,
00:45:50and you're ten points behind LaRoche in all the latest polls.
00:45:52What are you driving at?
00:45:54Tell Shelby who you are.
00:45:56She doesn't want to know who your wife is,
00:45:58and we need to be able to shape the narrative.
00:46:00You wait too long,
00:46:02and Neville LaRoche is going to find out and beat us to it.
00:46:04Okay.
00:46:06I'll tell her.
00:46:08I just...
00:46:10I need a few more days
00:46:12of just me with her.
00:46:14Then I'll confess everything.
00:46:16That's Shelby Trudeau,
00:46:18owner of the Valkyrie Fight Club.
00:46:20Pretty girl.
00:46:22So is she screwing
00:46:24Duran D'Roy?
00:46:26I don't know, sir.
00:46:28That luncheon was so boring, Neville.
00:46:30Those stuck-up twats
00:46:32kept going on and on
00:46:34about their precious lineages
00:46:36dating back to the Mayflower.
00:46:38I'm sorry.
00:46:40I'm sorry.
00:46:42I'm sorry.
00:46:44Dating back to the Mayflower.
00:46:48Not everyone's
00:46:50white trash like you, Isabel.
00:46:54It is a wonder
00:46:56how you overcame your
00:46:58low-class origins and
00:47:00gained my interest.
00:47:02That wasn't your interest, darling.
00:47:04That was your cock.
00:47:06Touche, my dear.
00:47:08Why are you looking at a picture of her?
00:47:10Do you know Shelby Trudeau?
00:47:12By Michelle in high school.
00:47:14But yeah, that's her.
00:47:16She was a star athlete
00:47:18with an annoying habit of defending
00:47:20every loser in school.
00:47:22From bullies like you, per se.
00:47:26Oh, that is unfortunate.
00:47:28You'll have to work that much
00:47:30harder for when you two reconnect.
00:47:32Neville, no.
00:47:34I mean your new bestie, Isabel.
00:47:36Baby, no.
00:47:42It's cooling off.
00:47:44We should go inside.
00:47:46Just a few more minutes.
00:47:48Can't remember the last time
00:47:50I let myself just be.
00:47:54Yeah.
00:47:56I think it was when my parents were still together.
00:47:58Before the divorce,
00:48:00the cheating,
00:48:02Mom getting sick.
00:48:04I was carefree then.
00:48:06I joined the army after, but
00:48:08that was just another rollercoaster.
00:48:10It's kind of hard to chill
00:48:12when you're deep in hostile territory
00:48:14cutting off weapons supply routes.
00:48:16I'm glad you feel safe here.
00:48:20It's not the place, it's the person.
00:48:24I feel like I've known you forever.
00:48:32Shelby, I have to tell you something.
00:48:40I guess I can wait
00:48:42one more day.
00:48:50Our most sought-after class at Valkyrie
00:48:52is our women's self-defense kickboxing.
00:48:56Sign me up.
00:49:00Oh shit, Isabel.
00:49:02The girl who made my life and everyone else's
00:49:04a living hell in high school.
00:49:06What sneaky BS is she up to?
00:49:08Oh my gosh!
00:49:10Michelle, is it you?
00:49:12I go by Shelby now.
00:49:14You look amazing!
00:49:16Michelle, Shelby,
00:49:18and I go way back.
00:49:20Gosh, what a small world.
00:49:22Well, for our membership
00:49:24we offer weekly and monthly subscriptions.
00:49:26How about I
00:49:28pay up front for three years
00:49:30and I'll be sure to tell all my friends to join.
00:49:32You know, if you're
00:49:34really serious about this, you'll have to lose the bling
00:49:36before class.
00:49:40I was a mean girl
00:49:42in high school, and I'm really ashamed
00:49:44of it. What you've built here
00:49:46is so empowering.
00:49:48If I had had something like this
00:49:50growing up, then maybe I would have
00:49:52found the courage to
00:49:54stop my pa from all the horrible things
00:49:56he did to me and Ma.
00:50:00Shelby, can we start over?
00:50:02Would you let me try to make it right?
00:50:06Okay.
00:50:16This is so awesome!
00:50:18How about lunch? I'm free to grab
00:50:20a bite right now. We can catch up.
00:50:24Okay. Let me grab
00:50:26my bag.
00:50:28Griffin Roy has made criminal justice reform
00:50:30the heart of his campaign.
00:50:32He's pro-union
00:50:34and has a five-point plan to improve
00:50:36workplace safety regulations.
00:50:38Shit!
00:50:40No, no, not you.
00:50:42I gotta call you back.
00:50:44LaRoche knows about Shelby.
00:50:46He's sicked Isabelle on her. Look.
00:50:48Here's her Instagram.
00:50:50What the fuck?
00:50:52LaRoche's oppo research must have tagged her.
00:50:54Look, we just lost control of the narrative, Griffin.
00:50:56Screw the narrative. It's a trap.
00:50:58It's a trap.
00:51:00It's a trap.
00:51:02It's a trap.
00:51:04It's a trap.
00:51:06It's a trap.
00:51:08It's a trap.
00:51:10It's a trap.
00:51:12Screw the narrative. It's a trap.
00:51:14They've got my wife.
00:51:22I thought this was supposed to be a quick bite.
00:51:24I have a business to run, you know.
00:51:26You haven't changed a bit since high school.
00:51:28So dedicated. I've always admired
00:51:30that about you.
00:51:32Alright, cut the crap, Izzy.
00:51:34Others might buy your ladylike
00:51:36act, but I know you're still the same
00:51:38vicious bully inside.
00:51:40You didn't come to my gym by accident.
00:51:42What's your angle?
00:51:44Neville asked me to befriend you.
00:51:46I don't want to be here.
00:51:48So I can just add that to the list of reasons
00:51:50why I fucking loathe you.
00:51:52What's my angle, Shelby?
00:51:56The complete and utter destruction
00:51:58of Griffin Roy.
00:52:00And if I can take you down with him,
00:52:02all the better.
00:52:04Shelby, listen to me.
00:52:06The press are on their way.
00:52:08I don't have time to explain,
00:52:10but I fucked up.
00:52:12You have to get out of that restaurant.
00:52:14Now.
00:52:18Too late to run.
00:52:20My hubby's here.
00:52:22Leaving so soon, Ms. Trudeau.
00:52:24Or should I say, Mrs. Roy?
00:52:28Come on, Shelby. Pick up.
00:52:30Let me know you got out of there.
00:52:34Who the hell are you?
00:52:36Congressman. Neville LaRoche.
00:52:38I understand why your husband
00:52:40probably never mentioned me.
00:52:42Seen as how there's so much he hasn't told you.
00:52:44Please, sit down.
00:52:46Isabel was supposed to keep you company
00:52:48until after I arrived.
00:52:50No matter.
00:52:52We'll do this the less genteel way
00:52:54if we must.
00:52:56Both of these men
00:52:58are retired Navy SEALs.
00:53:00I've heard a lot about your fighting skills.
00:53:02So, I came prepared.
00:53:10What's this about?
00:53:12What's this about?
00:53:14I spoke with your stepmother.
00:53:16Margot.
00:53:18She had quite the story to tell.
00:53:20It seems Roy has led you
00:53:22to believe that he's some bum.
00:53:24On the streets.
00:53:26When actually, well, he's just about
00:53:28one of the wealthiest men in the state.
00:53:30I can't believe you fell for that.
00:53:32Not so smart now,
00:53:34are you, Shelby?
00:53:36You're lying.
00:53:38You are Roy's secret bride.
00:53:40A woman he is so ashamed of
00:53:42he would hide the marriage
00:53:44for the rest of the world.
00:53:46When the press arrives,
00:53:48you will share your story of betrayal
00:53:50with the voters of Louisiana
00:53:52so that they may know
00:53:54what kind of man Roy really is.
00:54:00Hey.
00:54:02I got you.
00:54:04Let me go.
00:54:06Shelby, please.
00:54:08Why did you keep your marriage a secret?
00:54:10The voters have a right to know.
00:54:12What else are you hiding?
00:54:14You son of a bitch.
00:54:16Oh, now, Roy.
00:54:18Don't blame others for your own stupid mistakes.
00:54:30Shell.
00:54:32Shell.
00:54:34Shell.
00:54:36Please, hear me out.
00:54:38Don't shell me.
00:54:40God, all of your charm.
00:54:42It's just a lie.
00:54:44I never meant to let it get this far.
00:54:46I planned on coming clean.
00:54:48More lies, Griffin Roy?
00:54:50I was going to tell you today.
00:54:52Convenient.
00:54:54Why didn't you just tell me you were a billionaire from the start?
00:54:56Did you actually think I'd come after you
00:54:58for your money?
00:55:00That was always a possibility.
00:55:02Get away from my house.
00:55:04This is technically
00:55:06my home.
00:55:08How's sitting my ass?
00:55:10You are the worst
00:55:12and I never want to see you again.
00:55:14Shelby.
00:55:22Congressional candidate Griffin Roy
00:55:24has a secret bride.
00:55:26Our reporter is-
00:55:57You gotta get a sip of that?
00:56:23This is private property.
00:56:25Which I own.
00:56:27Liar. Pierce Durand owns this building.
00:56:29He works for me.
00:56:31Then I'll move.
00:56:33I don't want to owe you anything.
00:56:47Oh, Shelby.
00:56:49Shelby, come out, would you please?
00:56:51I wake up in the morning
00:56:53and reach for you
00:56:55but you're not there.
00:57:03I can't breathe
00:57:05at the thought of losing you.
00:57:09Mr. Roy, do you think she'll ever forgive you?
00:57:13You're ridiculous.
00:57:15You do know that, don't you?
00:57:17Oh, Shelby. Shelby.
00:57:19Oh, Shelby. Shelby.
00:57:21Don't leave me hanging.
00:57:23What are you doing? You're supposed to turn it on.
00:57:27Yeah.
00:57:29I got it from a pawn shop.
00:57:31It's broken.
00:57:33Guy totally scammed me.
00:57:35You are beyond ridiculous.
00:57:37Please, Shelby.
00:57:39I didn't say
00:57:41what I wanted to before.
00:57:43Just give me a chance to explain.
00:57:45Fine.
00:57:47Come in, you fool.
00:57:49I'll come in
00:57:51on my own.
00:57:57You have two minutes.
00:58:05Growing up
00:58:07as a Roy,
00:58:09no one ever liked me for me.
00:58:11It's always been about
00:58:13the money,
00:58:15the access.
00:58:17Then
00:58:19at a moment
00:58:21three years ago
00:58:23where someone did like me
00:58:25for me.
00:58:27They had no idea who I was
00:58:29and I just remember
00:58:31how freeing
00:58:33it felt.
00:58:37So when I met you
00:58:39and I felt that spark
00:58:41that I've been searching for
00:58:43I didn't think.
00:58:45I just fucking left.
00:58:47Why wait so long to tell me?
00:58:49I've never
00:58:51gone into enemy territory
00:58:53to cut off weapons supply
00:58:55routes.
00:58:57I boxed in prep school.
00:58:59Yep, you got that right.
00:59:01But otherwise
00:59:03I've always been more of
00:59:05a lover rather than a fighter.
00:59:07And I've done well
00:59:09as a lawyer
00:59:11but I did not earn those billions.
00:59:13I inherited them
00:59:15from
00:59:17generations
00:59:19of dickheads.
00:59:21When you meet a girl
00:59:23it's a total package.
00:59:25You just want to be her total package too.
00:59:27You really
00:59:29are ridiculous.
00:59:31You know, I have laughed more with you
00:59:33in the past two weeks than I have in my entire
00:59:35life.
00:59:37I'm way too serious, Griffin.
00:59:39Sometimes I forget how to let go.
00:59:41But with you, every day
00:59:43is fun.
00:59:45So, does that mean you forgive me?
00:59:47I'm thinking about
00:59:49it.
00:59:51Yeah.
00:59:53You think too much.
00:59:55Time for makeup sex.
01:00:01So, that's makeup
01:00:03sex.
01:00:05Yeah.
01:00:09Griffin, it hurts so much thinking
01:00:11we were over.
01:00:13I never want to feel like that
01:00:15again.
01:00:17I promise not to let anything get in between us.
01:00:25This changes
01:00:27everything.
01:00:29Now, thanks for the heads up.
01:00:31I'd appreciate it if you could keep it buried for as long as possible.
01:00:35Okay.
01:00:41Run.
01:00:43I want to stay right here.
01:00:53Where the hell are you, Griff?
01:00:55This is DEFCON 1.
01:00:57Hey, man.
01:00:59Seriously? That's all you have to say?
01:01:01Seriously? That's all you have to say?
01:01:05Come on.
01:01:07Come on.
01:01:13How could you keep something like this from me?
01:01:15We've known each other since college.
01:01:17What are you talking about?
01:01:19Didn't you get any of my texts or calls?
01:01:21I must have forgot to charge it.
01:01:23I had quite a night last night.
01:01:25Shelby and I made up.
01:01:27She's forgiven me.
01:01:29Well, she won't forgive you for this.
01:01:31You're a goddamn bigamist,
01:01:33Griffin Roy.
01:01:37Michelle Lane.
01:01:39I don't even know who that is.
01:01:41Well, you knew her well enough to marry her
01:01:43three years ago.
01:01:47This can't be right.
01:01:49I got it from a parish clerk.
01:01:51She's agreed to keep it hush-hush for now.
01:01:53The ceremony was conducted at a church.
01:01:55The priest signed and completed
01:01:57the marriage certificate.
01:01:59Father Timothy O'Shea.
01:02:03I now pronounce ye
01:02:05man and wife.
01:02:07The masked girl from Mardi Gras.
01:02:09I finally know her name.
01:02:11Michelle.
01:02:13Shit.
01:02:15That finally makes sense.
01:02:17Of course you wouldn't knowingly
01:02:19become a bigamist.
01:02:21Shelby. Fuck.
01:02:23What am I gonna tell her?
01:02:25Look, it could still be one
01:02:27big mistake.
01:02:29I need to talk to that priest.
01:02:37I have something for you.
01:02:45I hacked into the parish
01:02:47database. Griffin Roy is
01:02:49legally married to both Michelle Lane
01:02:51and Shelby Trudeau.
01:02:53That's it. He's finished.
01:02:55Griffin Roy
01:02:57will be in jail for bigamy
01:02:59for cocktail hour.
01:03:01Michelle Lane is Shelby Trudeau.
01:03:03They're legally married to each other
01:03:05on two separate occasions.
01:03:07They just don't know it yet.
01:03:09That's insane.
01:03:11Check the date. They got married the first time
01:03:13during Mardi Gras.
01:03:15Roy was obviously publicly
01:03:17intoxicated. We could use that angle.
01:03:19Yeah, the romance is already trending.
01:03:21He made an idiot
01:03:23of himself with that boombox and voters.
01:03:25Oh, they're just eating it up.
01:03:29He's catching up in the polls.
01:03:31Now, Roy unknowingly
01:03:33marries twice
01:03:35the girl he's been searching for since Mardi Gras.
01:03:37This will make them seem
01:03:39like some fated love story.
01:03:45This will make them seem like some
01:03:47fated love story.
01:03:49We got nothing on him.
01:03:51Honey,
01:03:53we've got everything we need.
01:03:55What they don't know can definitely
01:03:57hurt them. And right now,
01:03:59to Griffin Roy, Michelle Lane
01:04:01could be anybody.
01:04:05You would have given Machiavelli
01:04:07a run for his money, my dear.
01:04:09Who?
01:04:13Well, we have a very limited
01:04:15window to make this work.
01:04:17We will hit hard,
01:04:19but fast.
01:04:23What is she going to say
01:04:25when I tell her I'm married?
01:04:29Alright, ladies, good job.
01:04:31That's it for tonight. Remember,
01:04:33this weekend's Mardi Gras.
01:04:35Have fun, but you know what to do if anybody
01:04:37messes with you. Nice work.
01:04:39Hi.
01:04:41Hungry?
01:04:43Hungry?
01:04:45Yeah, so, um,
01:04:47today's class went super well.
01:04:49Two new students. They really
01:04:51didn't pick up on a lot of things.
01:04:53You're everything I've ever wanted. Everything
01:04:55I didn't even dare to dream.
01:04:57You're it for me. I can't
01:04:59lose you. Griffin, are you
01:05:01okay?
01:05:03Yeah.
01:05:05Just some stuff for the campaign.
01:05:09I want to help.
01:05:11Josh can't win. He and Isabel
01:05:13are evil. You're the kind of man
01:05:15that people need. I can't
01:05:17imagine anyone else but myself.
01:05:19I'll come by the campaign office tomorrow.
01:05:21We will plan a siege
01:05:23that surrounds them from all sides.
01:05:25That sounds amazing, Cheryl.
01:05:35Father?
01:05:37I
01:05:39remember the two of you.
01:05:41You had it, lad. That
01:05:43special spark.
01:05:45I don't see it often in couples, but when I
01:05:47do, it makes an impression.
01:05:49You must be mistaken.
01:05:51This woman and I, we'd met that
01:05:53day. And you were already finishing each other's
01:05:55sentences, dying to tie the knot.
01:05:57There was no stopping you. I was
01:05:59drunk. Drunk with love.
01:06:01The man I married knew
01:06:03what he was doing. I mean, how is this even
01:06:05legal? New Orleans has a
01:06:0724-hour waiting period. Unless the judge
01:06:09waives it. Son of a bitch.
01:06:11Who was it? He was your best man.
01:06:13You called him...
01:06:15Remy. Remy Cal.
01:06:17That bastard.
01:06:19No wonder he always had that stupid
01:06:21smirk on his face whenever I stood
01:06:23before him in court.
01:06:25Fuck!
01:06:27Fuck!
01:06:31I don't care. I don't care.
01:06:33We need to annul the marriage now. I love my wife.
01:06:35You're in a bit of a pickle.
01:06:37Because in my book,
01:06:39you love Joe the wife as well.
01:06:45Sir.
01:06:47Mrs. Arroyo's in your office with Mr. Durand.
01:06:49Shelby.
01:06:55Griffin, this is the woman you've been looking for.
01:06:57This is Michelle Lane.
01:06:59Hi, Griffin.
01:07:01You might not remember me, but
01:07:03we got married three years ago.
01:07:11So you've been an escort for
01:07:13seven years? That's right, since high school.
01:07:15And that really is your
01:07:17toddler? My baby girl Fleur.
01:07:19She has no daddy. This will be good for her.
01:07:25If I may ask,
01:07:27how will she pass the DNA test?
01:07:29That is the least of your worries.
01:07:31Alright, chop chop.
01:07:39Now action.
01:07:41Hi, Griffin.
01:07:43You might not remember me,
01:07:45but we got married three years ago.
01:07:47It was Mardi Gras.
01:07:49We were completely wasted,
01:07:51and we ended up in some church with an Irish priest.
01:07:53We had a wild night
01:07:55at the hotel, and well,
01:07:57Fleur was the happy accident
01:07:59nine months later.
01:08:03It can't be true.
01:08:05I've never met you in my life.
01:08:07I mean, you were wearing masks.
01:08:09Yes, that's right. We were.
01:08:11By the time I found out I was pregnant,
01:08:13two months had passed.
01:08:15I've been trying to find you ever since,
01:08:17but it wasn't until I saw one of your ads for Congress
01:08:19that I recognized your voice.
01:08:21It was a miracle.
01:08:23It's too much. She's losing him.
01:08:25Tone it down.
01:08:27Tone it down.
01:08:31Listen, lady, I don't know who you're trying to con
01:08:33with this act. Griffin, don't.
01:08:35But there is
01:08:37no way in hell that I'm married to you.
01:08:39What's going on, Griffin?
01:08:43Is this woman really your wife?
01:08:49No, she's not. We don't know.
01:08:51Which is it?
01:08:53You are my wife. Only you.
01:08:57I understand this is a lot to take in.
01:08:59Fleur and I will just go.
01:09:01I'll have my lawyer reach out.
01:09:03No. No lawyers.
01:09:05We don't need to involve any authorities.
01:09:07This can all be solved
01:09:09with a simple DNA test.
01:09:11Pierce, this woman
01:09:13is a fraud. Griffin, think about it.
01:09:15She says Fleur is your daughter.
01:09:17One little test, and that'll prove
01:09:19if she's lying or not.
01:09:21We need to know, Griffin.
01:09:23I need to know.
01:09:25Fine.
01:09:27But I don't want these doubts to fester.
01:09:29We can rush the DNA results and get them back
01:09:31in a few hours. Might I suggest
01:09:33a more private setting?
01:09:35Less eyes. Understood.
01:09:37We can wait back at my house
01:09:39for the results to come.
01:09:45We've got him.
01:09:47We've got him. You're up.
01:10:17You kid?
01:10:19No.
01:10:21Just don't.
01:10:23Shelby go upstairs.
01:10:25She fed them snacks
01:10:27and then locked herself
01:10:29in the guest room.
01:10:31I can't lose her,
01:10:33Pierce.
01:10:35I won't.
01:10:37DOORBELL RINGS
01:10:47Moment of truth, buddy.
01:11:09Fleur?
01:11:11Meet your daddy.
01:11:13I will, of course,
01:11:15but not for you both, financially.
01:11:17Fleur doesn't need a checkbook.
01:11:19She needs a father.
01:11:37What do you want?
01:11:39The guest bedroom is empty.
01:11:41You and Fleur can stay there.
01:11:45Shelby,
01:11:47just don't do this.
01:11:49Just give me some time.
01:11:51I can fix it.
01:11:53This isn't something you fix.
01:11:55You can't be legally married
01:11:57to two women at the same time and you have
01:11:59a child with one of them.
01:12:03We need to get a divorce.
01:12:07She's right, Griff.
01:12:09Griffin, you have a daughter now.
01:12:11You're a father
01:12:13and you have to put your child first.
01:12:15I can't be Marco.
01:12:17I won't do that
01:12:19to another little girl.
01:12:23I've spent my whole life
01:12:25looking for you.
01:12:27How can I let you go?
01:12:33Sometimes love isn't enough.
01:12:39How'd you know Shelby would leave
01:12:41because of the kid?
01:12:43Shelby's dedicated her life to saving people.
01:12:45It's not in her nature to put herself first.
01:12:47Oh, you're a scary woman.
01:12:49I know.
01:13:05So this is what it feels like
01:13:07to have your heart shattered?
01:13:11Yes.
01:13:41That's strange.
01:14:01I thought I heard something.
01:14:11It's like she was never here.
01:14:41Hey, mister?
01:14:43Will you marry me?
01:14:47She took everything but left this behind.
01:14:49Message received,
01:14:51Shelby.
01:15:03What the hell is this?
01:15:05I don't know.
01:15:08What the hell is this?
01:15:12I know this sounds crazy
01:15:14and there's no time to explain,
01:15:16but if you help me, I promise a generous reward
01:15:18once I get my inheritance.
01:15:20This place is insane.
01:15:22The owner must really trust you.
01:15:27Could it be?
01:15:38It's her.
01:15:40It's always been her.
01:15:44Yeah, it went better than I expected.
01:15:46Yeah, it went better than I expected.
01:15:48As soon as you saw the forged DNA test,
01:15:50it was a done deal.
01:15:52Who is she working for?
01:15:54How long am I supposed to stay here
01:15:56while you take care of Shelby?
01:15:58Give me a name. Come on, just one name.
01:16:00Mrs. LaRoche, that's cutting it close.
01:16:02I want to be long gone when he finds out she's dead.
01:16:07Where is Shelby?
01:16:09Where is my wife?
01:16:11Where is this about taking me?
01:16:13I don't know what you're talking about.
01:16:15I will have you put away for the rest of your life
01:16:17and your daughter will grow up in a fucking orphanage.
01:16:19I don't know where she is.
01:16:21If I knew, I'd tell you, I swear.
01:16:37There's something wrong with me.
01:16:41Help!
01:16:43Somebody help!
01:16:47Do you need some water?
01:16:49Wait, I see you've already had some.
01:16:51You poisoned me?
01:16:53Why?
01:16:55Why?
01:16:57Why?
01:16:59Where to begin?
01:17:01Lingering high school issues.
01:17:03Offs.
01:17:05Devil's campaign, duh.
01:17:07But the real reason,
01:17:09the one that cuts deep,
01:17:11is to make Griffin Roy think he's a bigamist.
01:17:15By the time he figures out
01:17:17he married the same woman twice,
01:17:19he'll have gone missing,
01:17:21vanished without a trace.
01:17:25He'll be forced to withdraw from the race.
01:17:27Later, when an anonymous tip
01:17:29tells the police where to find your body,
01:17:31suspicion will follow Griffin
01:17:33for the rest of his life.
01:17:35Any political future he may have had
01:17:37will be as dead as you.
01:17:39Net?
01:17:41Back up.
01:17:43Married twice?
01:17:45Who's the...
01:17:47the woman in the little girl?
01:17:49Oh,
01:17:51just some cheap whore I hired
01:17:53to tell your husband that they've been married
01:17:55for the past three years.
01:17:57When really,
01:17:59it's been you all along.
01:18:01You've been searching for each other all this time,
01:18:03but now he'll never find you.
01:18:07All right, boys, she's all yours.
01:18:15I told you I'd get you back.
01:18:23Ms. Tudor, why are you here?
01:18:25My daughter, my...
01:18:27my baby Cece.
01:18:29She's gonna do something terrible.
01:18:31What do you mean, terrible? What's going on?
01:18:33I sold everything
01:18:35to get her out on bail,
01:18:37and you... what does she do in return?
01:18:39She's... she's gone crazy.
01:18:41She's stalking Shelby.
01:18:43She tailed her to some
01:18:45hotel
01:18:47in the French Quarter.
01:18:49What hotel?
01:18:51Excuse me, sir. My sister's
01:18:53staying here, but I've forgotten her room number.
01:18:55Is Shelby Trudeau?
01:18:57Sorry, ma'am, we can't disclose
01:18:59any guest information.
01:19:07Shelby...
01:19:11Come out, come out, wherever you are.
01:19:23I think I'll do it with my bare hands.
01:19:25Makes it more personal.
01:19:29Actually, do me a favor.
01:19:31Leave a lot of marks on that vase of hers.
01:19:33Fuck you.
01:19:35I want people to see that she
01:19:37suffered a lot.
01:19:39Oh, trust me. She will.
01:19:41Come on.
01:19:43Let's get this party started.
01:19:55Look what you've done!
01:20:01Pansy-ass slap.
01:20:03She's stalling,
01:20:05and you're falling for it.
01:20:07Damn.
01:20:09Can't go to the valet smelling like a dive bar.
01:20:11I'll never give you your car keys.
01:20:13Shelby has clothes over there.
01:20:15Change.
01:20:17I'll take care of me.
01:20:19You go take care of her.
01:20:25No!
01:20:29Shelby Trudeau changed her name
01:20:31to Michelle Blaine.
01:20:33It was after her parents divorced at her mother's request.
01:20:35She only returned to her original name
01:20:37after her mother passed three years ago.
01:20:41Starting to make sense now.
01:20:43It was harder on my mom.
01:20:45She didn't want anything to do with him,
01:20:47so I cut him off, too.
01:20:49Even started using my mom's maiden name.
01:20:51She's the one you've been looking for.
01:20:53It's been her all this time.
01:20:55How could it be so blind?
01:20:57Of course it had to be Shelby.
01:20:59It had to be her.
01:21:01My heart knew
01:21:03what my brain couldn't see.
01:21:05I got it.
01:21:07Your girl's in room 801.
01:21:09Thanks, man.
01:21:11Now I can go save the love of my life.
01:21:19Too much to drink.
01:21:21It hurts.
01:21:29Stop right there!
01:21:35Not so fast.
01:21:39Griffin Buckingroy.
01:21:41Finally joined the party.
01:21:43I'm here for my wife.
01:21:45Not gonna happen, brah.
01:21:47What you've done here
01:21:49is aggravated assault,
01:21:51but if you leave this hotel with her,
01:21:53it's kidnapping.
01:21:55That is a federal crime.
01:21:57Don't bring in the FBI.
01:21:59Someone will have to be around to identify us.
01:22:01That sure as hell won't be you.
01:22:05Did you get all that, Pierce?
01:22:07Police are on their way.
01:22:09Hang in there, buddy.
01:22:11You're not getting out if you're alive, Roy.
01:22:19Give me my wife back now!
01:22:45Show me what you've got.
01:22:48Show me.
01:22:50You all right?
01:23:18Oh, my God.
01:23:25Griff, my God.
01:23:27Do you need medical attention?
01:23:29No, but they do.
01:23:39I guess I renewed my man card.
01:23:41Sure did, honey.
01:23:43Fucked him up real good.
01:23:47Oh, Lord.
01:23:49Please tell me there's something other than fatigues
01:23:51and combat boots in this thing.
01:24:01Shelby!
01:24:03You little bitch!
01:24:05Didn't I say I'd come back here and settle the score?
01:24:07What?
01:24:09That's not...
01:24:11Shelby!
01:24:13Put your hands up or I can see them.
01:24:18This is the last one.
01:24:20Hey, hey, hey. I want to make a deal.
01:24:22What do you have to offer up?
01:24:24Congressman Neville LaRoche.
01:24:26I'm all ears.
01:24:34Is it really over?
01:24:36Yeah, it is.
01:24:38Griffin, Isabel said something,
01:24:40and I want to believe it, but...
01:24:43Three years ago, did we...
01:24:47You left us.
01:24:56It's true.
01:24:58I can't believe I finally found you.
01:25:01I looked for you
01:25:03in the face of every woman I ever met.
01:25:06Why'd you never come back?
01:25:18It's called a walk of shame,
01:25:20not a laugh of it.
01:25:22Mind your own business, Cece.
01:25:24Look at you, Shelby.
01:25:26One Mardi Gras hookup,
01:25:27and you think you found happily ever after.
01:25:30That's not how life works.
01:25:32Sure, he may have liked you with a mask on,
01:25:34but he's not going to want you with it all.
01:25:37Look, you both have a great memory now,
01:25:40but you'll never be the same.
01:25:42You'll never be the same.
01:25:44Look, you both have a great memory now,
01:25:46but you'll look back,
01:25:48and you'll see that you're just the clueless chick
01:25:50who didn't know the score.
01:25:53You'll embarrass yourself,
01:25:55and more importantly, you'll embarrass him.
01:26:01I waited in that hotel for two days.
01:26:04I'm sorry I let her get to me,
01:26:07but to be honest, what we had seemed too good to be true.
01:26:10How often do people fall in love with someone
01:26:12without ever seeing their face?
01:26:14Exactly.
01:26:18But I did.
01:26:20And I do.
01:26:22Where do we go from here?
01:26:24Married twice, deeply in love,
01:26:27risked our lives to save each other.
01:26:29I'd say we live happily ever after.
01:26:34Shelby, will you...
01:26:37Yes, Griffin Roy.
01:26:42I will always love you.
01:26:44In this life or the next.
