00:00:00I'm bored.
00:00:12According to Mr. Trudeau's will, your eldest daughter, Miss Shelby Trudeau, must be married
00:00:18by five o'clock today, or she loses her inheritance.
00:00:22That un-ladylike girl is not my daughter.
00:00:25Bad enough I'm her stepmother.
00:00:27Hi and hello.
00:00:28We want Shelby to know show.
00:00:31That's the way we get everything.
00:00:44I'm Sgt.
00:00:45Shelby Trudeau.
00:00:46I'm here to claim my inheritance.
00:00:49Well look who it is, the prodigal sister, dressed in your old uniform.
00:00:53Pathetic.
00:00:54Still trying to play hero.
00:00:56I'm in the Army Reserve now, Cece.
00:00:58I was doing weekend drills with my unit.
00:01:01The will, please.
00:01:02Ooh, the Army Reserve.
00:01:03Should have just died in the field like a good little soldier.
00:01:09No one would have missed you.
00:01:10Shut your trap before I shut it for you.
00:01:14You don't have to respect me, but don't you dare speak about soldiers dying in vain on
00:01:18the battlefield.
00:01:19God, look around, Cece.
00:01:22Your curled hair and your frilly dress.
00:01:25Do you think any of that would be possible without others sacrificing?
00:01:29You have freedom and peace because someone else is carrying the burden.
00:01:34Of course, the will, Sergeant Trudeau.
00:01:42And I want to thank you for your service.
00:01:48Your father's will stipulates that the inheritance is yours, only if signed by both you and your
00:01:54spouse.
00:01:55Woo!
00:01:56That means you've got 15 minutes to find a husband, Shelby.
00:02:01Tick tock.
00:02:14Don't say I'm a bad stepmother.
00:02:16Give up your inheritance and I'll give you one percent.
00:02:19Better than nothing.
00:02:22You stole my father from me most of my life.
00:02:24You will not take what he left me.
00:02:26And what this money could do to help the gym and all the women that are part of it.
00:02:33Really, Shelby?
00:02:34Who's going to marry you anyhow?
00:02:36The last guy you even slept with was a one-night stand three years ago at Mardi Gras.
00:02:52Don't.
00:02:55Keep the mystery.
00:02:59You've already lost, Shelby.
00:03:01Take the one percent I'm offering and be grateful for it.
00:03:05Right.
00:03:06You're not even going to find a bum on the street to marry you in time.
00:03:11Watch me.
00:03:17Don't worry.
00:03:24He looks single.
00:03:31Oh my God, this is totally FUBAR.
00:03:44Suck it up, soldier.
00:03:45You can't let your evil stepmother and step-sister win.
00:03:49Hey, mister, will you marry me?
00:04:03I know this sounds crazy and there's no time to explain, but if you help me, I promise
00:04:07a generous reward once I get my inheritance.
00:04:09Well, this day just got a whole lot more interesting.
00:04:12So you won't have to live on the streets anymore.
00:04:14Do I look like a homeless person there?
00:04:16Priceless.
00:04:17Shelby Trudeau, are you insane?
00:04:22You can't marry this...
00:04:23Help-o.
00:04:24Shelby Trudeau, the late Judge Trudeau's eldest daughter.
00:04:31That's right.
00:04:32The judge said she was a soldier.
00:04:34He didn't mention she was beautiful, too.
00:04:37Here's a few bucks.
00:04:38Take it and get lost.
00:04:40Don't meddle in our business.
00:04:42Don't speak to him like that.
00:04:43He's a person with feelings.
00:04:46The Cinderella Tale, complete with an evil stepmother and obnoxious step-sister.
00:04:51It's clear who deserves my help, and the timing couldn't be better for me.
00:04:56Alright, let's get married.
00:04:59Names for the marriage certificate?
00:05:02Shelby Trudeau.
00:05:04And your name is?
00:05:07Griffin Roy.
00:05:29And congratulations, you lovebirds.
00:05:54This isn't over.
00:05:55Tell her!
00:05:59Sergeant Trudeau...
00:06:03Mrs. Roy, you have to stay married for at least one full year, or everything goes to
00:06:10your stepmother and step-sister.
00:06:12You hear that, Shelby?
00:06:14You won't last a week with that hobo.
00:06:17Come on.
00:06:21Come on.
00:06:27I guess we'll need to keep in touch, but you probably don't have a permanent address.
00:06:33Once the estate gets settled and I have the money, we can get you an apartment and set
00:06:38you up with a job.
00:06:39When most people get what they wanted, they usually just walk away.
00:06:43I'm not most people.
00:06:46I see that.
00:06:52I gotta return this.
00:06:56Goodbye for now.
00:06:59Goodbye, wife.
00:07:13Where the hell have you been?
00:07:22Gotcha.
00:07:23Seriously, this is over the top, even for you.
00:07:28This DNA, get it to Detective McSwain right away.
00:07:31Look, as your campaign manager, I need you to be more focused on your image, okay?
00:07:37Don't ever catch LaRoche dumpster diving.
00:07:42Marrying Isabel was the best decision of my life.
00:07:46You know, when you elected me to Congress three years ago, you got a package deal.
00:07:52Griffin Roy, just another billionaire bachelor, playboy lawyer, the best.
00:07:58This, my friend, is where you're wrong.
00:08:01You're wrong.
00:08:04Griffin Roy, just another billionaire bachelor, playboy lawyer, the best.
00:08:09This, my friend, is where you're vulnerable.
00:08:12In a snap, I can line up a dozen beautiful, successful women.
00:08:16You want me for what I am, not who I am.
00:08:18Look, you can't keep pining over some girl you met three years ago.
00:08:22It's not just some girl.
00:08:24We had a connection.
00:08:26Never had that before.
00:08:28Look, I gotta run.
00:08:35But Griffin, you need to find a woman who can stand by your side.
00:08:38Someone real.
00:08:40Not this made-up mystery girl you've built up in your head.
00:08:59Remember that true strength is not physical.
00:09:02It comes from the belief that you are worth defending.
00:09:05All right, guys. That's class. Nice work.
00:09:14So what's the latest on the STD super spreader?
00:09:17I tried to call him, but Mr. Chlamydia blocked my number.
00:09:22Who knows how many other women he's done this to.
00:09:25So I was thinking maybe it's time to go by his place and confront him in person.
00:09:31What's holding you back?
00:09:33Andre's no regular guy, Shelby.
00:09:35He's got a bro pack.
00:09:37These men are like wolves with mutton.
00:09:39Let's go.
00:09:41We'll face this douchebag together.
00:09:56What's your name?
00:09:58I'm Stephanie.
00:10:00How about a drink, huh?
00:10:02Oh, that's okay.
00:10:04Come on. One little drink won't do no harm.
00:10:06Okay, one drink.
00:10:08Really, Pierce? This clown is the one who controls the town's power brokers.
00:10:12You want to beat LaRoche?
00:10:14You gotta mingle with the good, the bad, and the Andres.
00:10:18I can't believe I slept with that.
00:10:20What was I thinking?
00:10:22I guess I can't hold my liquor.
00:10:24I mean, the night was just one big black hole.
00:10:28It wasn't the alcohol that caused you to black out.
00:10:34Thanks.
00:10:36That creep.
00:10:38I'm sorry.
00:10:40I'm sorry.
00:10:42I'm sorry.
00:10:45Thanks.
00:10:46That creep.
00:10:48You dickless loser.
00:10:58Drugging girls to get laid.
00:11:00What the fuck? Get out of my house, skank.
00:11:03I'm the skank?
00:11:05That's funny. You're the one spreading chlamydia.
00:11:08Shut the fuck up and get out of my house.
00:11:11Unless you're back for more, I know how much of a whore you really are.
00:11:15You like spreading your legs, don't you?
00:11:17I just told you that you have chlamydia, and you...
00:11:20Oh, my God. You already know you have it.
00:11:24And you don't care.
00:11:27Ladies, Andrei Ivanov has been knowingly spreading chlamydia.
00:11:38What is she doing here?
00:11:40Both of you, get out of here.
00:11:46Oh, shit. She can't know who I am yet.
00:11:53Do you know who I am?
00:11:55I don't care.
00:12:01Where did she come from?
00:12:03That's my wife. Isn't she amazing?
00:12:05And she's gonna cost you, Andrei, once he finds out you're married to her?
00:12:08I don't care.
00:12:09You think you can crash my party and put that ninja shit on me?
00:12:13You are one dead bitch.
00:12:25Oh, nice. Did you see that combo?
00:12:28Dude, she can fight. Look at her form, man.
00:12:35Dude, she can really fight, man.
00:12:37You are hopeless.
00:12:39Hey, sell me jackets. I'll give you my Rolex.
00:12:44Come on.
00:13:06Fuck you, Roy. I'll do everything I can to end you.
00:13:09We should get out of here.
00:13:11Get him!
00:13:19You lied to me.
00:13:20You're not some homeless guy.
00:13:22Okay, when did I say I was homeless?
00:13:24You were next to a dumpster, that's not much of a leap.
00:13:28What were you doing at this party?
00:13:29Working the room.
00:13:30Oh, I thought you were one of those asshole rich guys.
00:13:34I'm sorry, I hope I didn't cost you your job.
00:13:38I know how you can make it up to me.
00:13:40Have dinner with me.
00:13:44My place is nearby.
00:13:45I'll whip something up as a thank you for tonight.
00:13:47Wow, a wife who cooks and kicks ass.
00:13:51I'm one lucky man.
00:13:53Don't push it.
00:14:02Hey, dinner's ready.
00:14:09This is nice.
00:14:10I haven't had a home cooked meal in a long time.
00:14:13It's one of the things I missed the most when I was deployed.
00:14:15How long were you in the military?
00:14:17Seven years.
00:14:18I joined right after high school.
00:14:20My mom had just died and I was feeling rudderless.
00:14:23You weren't close with your father?
00:14:26I was.
00:14:27He was my hero.
00:14:30Until he wasn't.
00:14:32He cheated on my mom with Margo.
00:14:34He was the judge and she was the court stenographer.
00:14:38It was quite the scandal at the time.
00:14:40That must have been really hard for you.
00:14:43It was harder on my mom.
00:14:45She didn't want anything to do with him, so I cut him off too.
00:14:48He even started using my mom's maiden name.
00:14:50But then three years ago he reached out, told me he was sick,
00:14:53so I came to New Orleans for a visit.
00:14:55Here I am.
00:14:57Here you are.
00:14:58Enough about me.
00:15:00What's your story, Gryffinroy?
00:15:05Shelby Trudeau, come on out now.
00:15:07We know you're in there, Shelby.
00:15:09The light is on.
00:15:10We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:15:13We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:15:16Hey, I'll handle this.
00:15:23Oh, I thought I heard a couple of stray cats out here yelling,
00:15:26but it's just you two.
00:15:28And you are?
00:15:29Yes, I almost got a Shelby married.
00:15:31What are you doing here?
00:15:33Why wouldn't Gryffin be here?
00:15:35He's my husband, after all.
00:15:37Mama, what are we going to do?
00:15:39We need to challenge the will, but how can we do that if they're still together?
00:15:42Shut up, Cece.
00:15:43Oh, I see you're still trying to rob my wife of her inheritance.
00:15:47How pathetic and pointless.
00:15:49Look how in love we are.
00:15:51I'll be back.
00:15:54Enjoy the little victory while it lasts.
00:15:57Right, we're going to shred that will and your shame of marriage in no time.
00:16:06Margot and Cece are going to be a problem.
00:16:08There's no way they'll let us be.
00:16:10What if we moved in together?
00:16:13You want to live here?
00:16:15No.
00:16:17Somewhere with better security.
00:16:19Like my place.
00:16:21Sure.
00:16:23I'm dying to see where you live.
00:16:26So, let me get this straight.
00:16:28You told her you're house-sitting?
00:16:30That's right.
00:16:31Said I was going to watch the house while the owner was in Europe for the year.
00:16:35You do know how crazy that sounds.
00:16:37Why can't you just tell her it's your place?
00:16:43I saw you from across the room and I had to talk to you.
00:16:46I'm sorry.
00:16:48I'm sorry.
00:16:50I'm sorry.
00:16:52I'm sorry.
00:16:54I had to talk to you.
00:16:56That's very flattering, but you don't know anything about me.
00:16:59I know you take my breath away.
00:17:01And I know that I would wonder for the rest of my life if I didn't take this chance.
00:17:05Even if it was only for one night.
00:17:07Maybe it's better this way.
00:17:10No names, no past.
00:17:13We can just be ourselves.
00:17:15I'd like that very much.
00:17:18The girl from Mardi Gras didn't know I was a Roy.
00:17:21She liked me for me.
00:17:23And I want that again, Pierce.
00:17:26Even for a little while.
00:17:35Stash all this stuff in the garage, please.
00:17:38Griffin, you're a public figure.
00:17:41A lot of people know who you are.
00:17:43How long do you think you can keep this charade up?
00:17:45I don't know.
00:17:47But I have a chance to be with someone without all the crap that goes along with being a Roy.
00:17:51Well, just remember, we're about to launch a multi-platform campaign.
00:17:56In two weeks, TV, radio, social, billboards, your face is about to be everywhere.
00:18:02Then I better make the most of the next 14 days.
00:18:22This place is insane. The owner must really trust you.
00:18:26Yep. We're pretty tight.
00:18:29Here, let me show you to your room.
00:18:37I can't keep living in the past.
00:18:40Maybe it's time to see what the future holds.
00:18:52Goodbye, mystery lover.
00:19:00I take it things are going well with Xena Warrior Princess.
00:19:03Oh, she's so exciting. And competitive.
00:19:06Keeps me on my toes. And so damn beautiful.
00:19:09Face sweaty, no makeup, so damn real.
00:19:12When do I get to meet her?
00:19:14Her military background and work with actress women will be a real asset for both female and male voters.
00:19:19Dial it back, Pierce. We're in the early stages.
00:19:22Alright, well, don't take too long. You married her for the campaign.
00:19:26And it's not like she can dump you once she finds out.
00:19:29She needs you for her inheritance.
00:19:39Good.
00:19:46Hey.
00:19:47I'm taking care of you tonight.
00:19:49Ooh, I like the sound of that.
00:19:51Get your mind out of the gutter, woman. We're talking food here.
00:19:54Alright, in that case, surprise me.
00:19:57Trust me. I'm full of surprises.
00:20:00I bet you are.
00:20:02See you soon.
00:20:12Gotcha, sis. So this is where you've been hiding out.
00:20:18Ah!
00:20:26Did you want some of my wine?
00:20:48I turned off your alarm. You obviously needed to sleep.
00:20:52We can run tonight.
00:20:54P.S. You snore, but it's super cute.
00:20:57I do not snore, Griffin Roy.
00:21:00What are you doing in a place like this?
00:21:02I live here.
00:21:04When did you move in?
00:21:05Last week. We're house-sitting.
00:21:08Yeah, I have heard that one before.
00:21:10I'm sorry. It's bad.
00:21:12There's no need to apologize.
00:21:14I'm sorry.
00:21:15I'm sorry.
00:21:16My fault.
00:21:17I'm sorry.
00:21:18I'm sorry.
00:21:19I'm sorry.
00:21:20I'm sorry.
00:21:21I'm sorry.
00:21:22I'm sorry.
00:21:23I'm sorry.
00:21:24I'm sorry.
00:21:25I'm sorry.
00:21:26I'm sorry.
00:21:27I'm sorry.
00:21:28I'm sorry.
00:21:29I have heard that one before.
00:21:30Listen, this is an exclusive neighborhood.
00:21:32Thieves are always trying to break in.
00:21:35Who are you calling a thief?
00:21:37Please step out, now.
00:21:40What the hell are you doing?
00:21:42Just routine inspection.
00:21:46Let's see what else you're hiding here.
00:21:56Get your filthy hands off my wife.
00:21:58What?
00:22:03Oh, cool.
00:22:05I thought I was saving you,
00:22:08but it looks like you got it.
00:22:09Oh, look out.
00:22:14Damn, lady.
00:22:15You make it look easy.
00:22:18Are you hurt?
00:22:19Just my pride.
00:22:22Yeah, looks like you get a flat.
00:22:25Let's get out of here, we can take my car.
00:22:28This is yours?
00:22:30Borrowed it from a friend.
00:22:32Right.
00:22:35I know all the guards who work here,
00:22:38and you sure as hell aren't them.
00:22:39Who the hell are you, man?
00:22:42Some kind of big shot or something?
00:22:44Oh, I'm your worst nightmare.
00:22:48All right, you're under arrest.
00:22:52What the hell is going on?
00:22:58Well, that didn't go as planned.
00:23:02Mama, this is all your fault.
00:23:04You pushed me to hire those thugs to humiliate Shelby,
00:23:06and now my money's wasted and she got off scot-free.
00:23:09Eyes on the prize, Cece.
00:23:10Once we inherit the entire Trudeau estate,
00:23:13this'll be pocket change.
00:23:14Yeah, and who would have thought that bum
00:23:16would have got the police involved in all this mess?
00:23:19I don't believe he's a bum.
00:23:20I mean, how can a homeless man be so clever?
00:23:23No matter whether he's a tramp or a thug,
00:23:26whether he's a tramp or not,
00:23:28he married Shelby for her money.
00:23:30Offer him a better deal and he'll leave her.
00:23:33We annul the marriage and claim the entire estate.
00:23:39Oh, isn't Victoria Wilcox
00:23:41the porter party billionaire looking for a new gigolo?
00:23:44That old cougar?
00:23:45Oh, Cece, honey, when they're that age,
00:23:48they're not cougars, they're saber-tooth tigers.
00:23:52Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:23:56Well, then we just gotta make him an offer he can't refuse.
00:24:06You really should have iced these right away.
00:24:08I realize that now.
00:24:10I've only ever sparred with gloves on,
00:24:13never thrown a bare-knuckle punch before.
00:24:17What?
00:24:19Did I just hand in my man card?
00:24:21No, you knocked a guy out with one punch.
00:24:23Your man card is fully intact.
00:24:26You just sounded like a prep school rich boy for a second.
00:24:34Not just for today, but for everything.
00:24:38It's been really lonely since my dad died,
00:24:39and it's nice having someone on my side.
00:24:43There's no need to thank me.
00:24:45I am your husband.
00:24:49Close your eyes.
00:24:52Close your eyes.
00:25:00Okay.
00:25:03Fair is fair.
00:25:04I owe you one.
00:25:21Sorry. I know we're just pretending.
00:25:28Right. Pretending.
00:25:32I'm gonna... I'm gonna go for a run.
00:25:38Okay, I'll come with...
00:25:44What if it's just me? Wouldn't that be ironic?
00:25:47The first woman I'm into for so long is not into me. Fuck!
00:26:06Griffin kissed me and it felt just like that night three years ago.
00:26:11What's wrong with me? How can I feel the exact same way for two different men?
00:26:27I don't know. He looks like a wet street dog.
00:26:30I'll shower and a haircut and he'll be marginally presentable.
00:26:34Hey! You!
00:26:40I've got a proposition for you.
00:26:42How'd you like to be richer than you ever imagined?
00:26:45Well, that'd be a dream, ma'am.
00:26:47Get in.
00:27:00Are you sure he's not homeless? Eats like a dirty pig.
00:27:04So you want me to divorce Shelby and marry Victoria Wilcox, the shithouse billionaire?
00:27:16You will refer to them as porta-potties, young man.
00:27:21We know you're after Shelby's inheritance, but she's never gonna see it.
00:27:26Well, he'll do.
00:27:33Oh, he'll do just nicely.
00:27:37Wait a minute. Have we met before? Because you look real familiar.
00:27:43No.
00:27:44Nope. I don't think I run in your kinds of circles, Miss Wilcox.
00:27:49The first document are official divorce papers.
00:27:55The first document are official divorce papers.
00:27:58And you will also be paid 20 grand a month to provide intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:28:07Oh, you don't need to worry, boy, because I have the libido of a 26-year-old.
00:28:27I don't understand. This says...
00:28:29You're under arrest for pandering.
00:28:33Detective McSwain, this woman has tried to recruit me as a sex worker.
00:28:39That's a Class C felony.
00:28:41He's lying.
00:28:45And you will also be paid 20 grand a month to provide intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:28:54Detective, Detective, there must be some misunderstanding. There's no nonsense going on here.
00:29:00No, you can't arrest me on the word of that bum. He set me up.
00:29:04Detective McSwain, it's getting late. I'd like to go home and see my wife.
00:29:15Wait. You have made a big mistake rejecting me.
00:29:20I'm a woman of wealth and power that you cannot fathom. I will make you pay very dearly for this.
00:29:28I don't think anyone mentioned my last name. It's Roy.
00:29:37Well, I knew you looked familiar. You see, I'm just an old woman. You could forgive me.
00:29:44Get out of my face.
00:29:49Hold on. Excuse me.
00:29:53All right, we got her in the car. How far do you want this to go?
00:29:57Put the fear of God in there. Mug shot, fingerprints, thorax.
00:30:02Then in the morning, drop the charges before the press gets wind.
00:30:06Here, sir, to have your hide.
00:30:08You got it, Griff.
00:30:19Where have you been? I was worried you were gone so long.
00:30:24Yeah. Yeah.
00:30:28Are you hungry? I can heat up some leftovers.
00:30:31Yeah, I'd like that.
00:30:35Did that just happen? Maybe I have a shot with her after all.
00:30:50Oh, baby, my little girl.
00:30:53I will never forget the humiliation that man has caused us.
00:30:57Don't you worry, Mama. I have a plan. I had all night to think about it in that cold, hard cell.
00:31:05If he doesn't want to divorce Shelby, fine. We'll just force Shelby to divorce him.
00:31:12And I know just where to hit it where it hurts.
00:31:17He's amazing.
00:31:33I think we shaved 30 seconds off that time.
00:31:36I thought I was competitive. You even compete with yourself.
00:31:49You're not growing. You're dying.
00:31:52I am. I'm going to go shower.
00:32:01Get a grip, Shelby. So he's hot.
00:32:04You've been around dozens of smoking hot men in the service.
00:32:07What makes him any different? He just is.
00:32:15Hazar Shelby, you have to get here right away.
00:32:19You're first kicking us out the gym.
00:32:25I'm sorry, my hands are tied.
00:32:29He says we have to leave.
00:32:31OK, I got this. Mr. Buford, what are you doing? This is my place of business.
00:32:35You're done here. I sold the building. The new owners want you out.
00:32:39That's illegal. I have a lease.
00:32:41They've got a break clause for new management and they decide to activate it.
00:32:46Who the hell is they?
00:32:52That would be us.
00:32:56If we can take it from here.
00:32:58Sure thing. Pleasure doing business with you ladies.
00:33:01I know you used all your army money for this gym, but you can get it back.
00:33:06All you have to do is sign this divorce petition.
00:33:10Get a divorce, give up your inheritance, and then you can keep your dinky, smelly gym.
00:33:24I bet you want to hit me so bad.
00:33:28Screw you. I'll just pack up and find a new location.
00:33:32Sorry, the building is now closed for renovations and everything inside now belongs to me.
00:33:40Of course, you could sue, but that would take months.
00:33:45Well, what would happen to your gym now, Shelby?
00:33:49That's blackmail.
00:33:50We like to call it capitalism. You don't sign, we close the gym, and then you lose everything.
00:33:57Think about what you're doing. This gym is a lifeline for so many women. I won't let you take it from them.
00:34:04You can beg, but I won't budge.
00:34:08Be a smart girl and sign the papers by tomorrow or you can kiss your Valkyrie Fight Club goodbye.
00:34:17And watch us turn it into Valkyrie Strip Club.
00:34:22This is not a good idea.
00:34:24There's poles and everything.
00:34:25Oh my.
00:34:26Plenty of girls.
00:34:27They're cute.
00:34:28They are cute.
00:34:29Cute enough.
00:34:40I'm not here because I'd give a damn if you win. I'm here to make sure that Griffin Roy doesn't.
00:34:45Well, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
00:34:48The fuck you say?
00:34:50What exactly did Roy do to earn your loathing?
00:34:55He partnered up against me with a She-Warrior. I want to see them both destroyed.
00:35:01Well, with your connections and my political might, I think that might be able to be arranged.
00:35:16LaRoche got Andre. What are we going to do about this?
00:35:20Nothing.
00:35:22We do not want these two pairing up, all right?
00:35:24This is political suicide. Just talk to Shelby. Maybe if you both apologize-
00:35:29Um, hell no. Let them do their best.
00:35:32Mark my words, this is going to come back to bite you in the ass.
00:35:41Hello, Shelby.
00:35:42Griffin.
00:35:44We need to talk.
00:35:52Shelby? What's going on? You sounded tense on the phone.
00:35:58I have so many missed moments. Things I should have said or done. Chances that were lost that might have been pivotal to my life.
00:36:06I don't want you to be another moment that I miss.
00:36:15I love you.
00:36:22You first.
00:36:44You first.
00:37:14You first.
00:37:31That was-
00:37:32Fucking amazing.
00:37:44Griffin? Where are you going? Griffin? Griffin?
00:37:51Explain yourself.
00:37:53Toothbrush.
00:37:56PJs.
00:37:58This is Jacques.
00:38:00Why?
00:38:02You're my wife. I sleep with you now.
00:38:05We probably should have talked this through.
00:38:07Yeah. You said you had missed moments. I've had them too.
00:38:13You will not be one of them.
00:38:16I know we said we were pretending, but I want to give us a chance. A real one.
00:38:23Oh?
00:38:43It's okay.
00:38:45I love you.
00:38:48Shit.
00:39:11I now pronounce ye man and wife.
00:39:15Kiss the bonnie lass, why don't ya?
00:39:34Cece, meet me at the gym in one hour. We can go over the divorce papers.
00:39:44Goodbye, my husband.
00:39:53I knew something must have happened.
00:40:01Hello.
00:40:03Pierce, I need you to use all your connections to find out what Cece and Margot Trudeau did to Shelby yesterday.
00:40:11Because of them, my wife is divorcing me.
00:40:15It's five in the morning.
00:40:17You have an hour.
00:40:23How did Cece get the money to buy the entire Rampart Drive building?
00:40:27She and Margot Trudeau are using the Trudeau mansion as collateral.
00:40:30Stupid. Good for us, bad for them. And the property title?
00:40:35Still in escrow. The title hasn't been transferred yet.
00:40:38Make sure it is in your name.
00:40:41You're about to be the proud owner of a mid-rise building on Rampart Drive.
00:40:45Oh, goody, goody.
00:40:51Talk to me, McSwain.
00:40:53I showed the fake guards in lockup Cece Trudeau's mugshot.
00:40:56You're right. She's the one who hired them to rough up your wife. How'd you know?
00:41:00Had her M.O. written all over it.
00:41:02I take it the kid gloves are off this time?
00:41:04Oh yeah. Cece Trudeau thinks she's untouchable.
00:41:07Let's show her just how wrong she is.
00:41:17I'm glad you finally came to your senses, Shelby.
00:41:20I definitely have.
00:41:23Showtime.
00:41:25I'm your campaign manager, not some hired muscle.
00:41:28Here's what I think about your agreement.
00:41:34Did you see that?
00:41:35Did you see that? She chose me, man. She chose me.
00:41:38Well, hell. Looks like she did.
00:41:41You fucking bitch!
00:41:44That's her cue.
00:41:49Say goodbye to your gym, Shelby. You're gonna lose everything.
00:41:53You know, at least I still have my self-respect, which is more than I can say for you.
00:41:57Don't be hasty, Cece. She's basically a man. You'll get hurt.
00:42:01I will find a way to reclaim what is rightfully mine, but I will never agree to your demands.
00:42:08Reclaim what's yours? You're never gonna step foot in your precious gym ever again.
00:42:15That will be difficult to enforce since I now own the building.
00:42:20Who the hell are you?
00:42:22Pierce Durand. The new owner of 222 Rampart Drive.
00:42:27What?
00:42:29Your deal fell out of escrow. I swooped in and bought it.
00:42:34That's impossible. I own it.
00:42:37Let me spell this out in a way that even an imbecile will understand.
00:42:41I outbid you. The building is mine. Now scram.
00:42:46I never.
00:42:48Ms. Trudeau, I want to ensure you that your lease is secure.
00:42:52The only change will be a 40% rent reduction.
00:42:56That's unbelievable. Are you sure you can afford that?
00:43:00Hell yeah.
00:43:02Thank you, Mr. Durand. The gym means a lot to the women in this community.
00:43:13Cece Trudeau, you're under arrest for extortion.
00:43:16The fake guards identified you as the one who paid them to attack Shelby Trudeau.
00:43:21Okay, well, but that was last week. You can't arrest me now.
00:43:24We most certainly can, and this time the charges won't be dropped.
00:43:28No, no, no. You can't take my girl. No, you can't take her.
00:43:33I'm coming after you. I'm never going to forget this when I get out.
00:43:35You're mine.
00:43:37Sorry.
00:43:45Zara, call everyone. Valkyrie Fight Club is back in business.
00:43:57Well, aren't you going to go over there?
00:44:00You're the one that orchestrated this whole thing.
00:44:03It's her victory. I merely did what a husband should to ensure her happiness.
00:44:09That's my reward.
00:44:10That is some wild shit. You just found it.
00:44:13This girl is seriously causing you to lose it, Griff.
00:44:15You worry too much.
00:44:17And you don't worry enough.
00:44:19We have a campaign to win, and you're ten points behind LaRoche in all the latest polls.
00:44:23What are you driving at?
00:44:25Tell Shelby who you are.
00:44:27The voters need to know who your wife is, and we need to be able to shape the narrative.
00:44:32You wait too long, and Neville LaRoche is going to find out and beat us to it.
00:44:36Okay. I'll tell her.
00:44:39I just... I need a few more days of just me with her.
00:44:45Then I'll confess everything.
00:44:56That's Shelby Trudeau, owner of the Valkyrie Fight Club.
00:45:00Pretty girl.
00:45:02So is she screwing?
00:45:04Durand or Roy?
00:45:05I don't know, sir.
00:45:06That luncheon was so boring, Neville.
00:45:10Those stuck-up twats kept going on and on about their precious lineages dating back to the Mayflower.
00:45:21Not everyone's white trash like you, Isabel.
00:45:24It doesn't wonder how you overcame your low-class origins and gained my interest.
00:45:30That wasn't your interest, darling. That was your cock.
00:45:33Hmm. Touché, my dear.
00:45:36Why are you looking at a picture of her?
00:45:38Do you know Shelby Trudeau?
00:45:40Well, she went by Michelle in high school.
00:45:43But yeah, that's her.
00:45:45She was a star athlete with an annoying habit of defending every loser in school.
00:45:50From bullies like you, per se.
00:45:54Oh, that is unfortunate.
00:45:58You'll have to work that much harder for when you two reconnect.
00:46:02No, no.
00:46:03I mean your new bestie, Isabel.
00:46:05Baby, no.
00:46:13It's cooling off. We should go inside.
00:46:16It's cooling off. We should go inside.
00:46:19Just a few more minutes.
00:46:22I can't remember the last time I let myself just... be.
00:46:28Yeah.
00:46:29I think it was when my parents were still together.
00:46:32Before the divorce, the cheating, Mom getting sick.
00:46:37I was carefree then.
00:46:39I joined the army after, but that was just another rollercoaster.
00:46:43It's kind of hard to chill when you're deep in hostile territory cutting off weapons supply routes.
00:46:50Well, I'm glad you feel safe here.
00:46:53It's not the place, it's the person.
00:46:57I feel like I've known you forever.
00:47:04Shelby, I have to tell you something.
00:47:14I guess I can wait one more day.
00:47:22Our most sought after place in Valkyrie is our women's self-defense kickboxing.
00:47:29Sign me up.
00:47:32Oh shit, Isabel.
00:47:34The girl who made my life and everyone else's a living hell in high school.
00:47:38What sneaky BS is she up to?
00:47:41Oh my gosh, Michelle, is it you?
00:47:44I go by Shelby now.
00:47:45You look amazing.
00:47:47Michelle, Shelby, and I go way back.
00:47:51Gosh, what a small world.
00:47:54Well, for membership, we offer weekly and monthly subscriptions.
00:47:58How about I pay up front for three years?
00:48:01And I'll be sure to tell all my friends to join.
00:48:05You know, if you're really serious about this, you'll have to lose the bling before class.
00:48:11I was a mean girl in high school, and I'm really ashamed of it.
00:48:16What you've built here is so empowering.
00:48:20If I had had something like this growing up, then maybe I would have found the courage to stop my pa from all the horrible things he did to me and Ma.
00:48:31Shelby, can we start over?
00:48:33Would you let me try to make it right?
00:48:36Okay.
00:48:46This is so awesome!
00:48:48How about lunch? I'm free to grab a bite right now. We can catch up.
00:48:54Okay, let me grab my bag.
00:48:56Get it, baby!
00:49:06Griffin Roy has made criminal justice reform the heart of his campaign.
00:49:10He's pro-union and has a five-point plan to improve workplace safety regulations.
00:49:16Shit!
00:49:18No, no, not you. Uh, I gotta call you back.
00:49:30LaRoche knows about Shelby. He sicked Isabelle on her. Look, here's her Instagram.
00:49:36What the fuck? LaRoche's oppo research must have tagged her.
00:49:40Look, we just lost control of the narrative, Griffin.
00:49:43Screw the narrative. It's a trap.
00:49:45They've got my wife.
00:49:53I thought this was supposed to be a quick bite. I have a business to run, you know.
00:49:57You haven't changed a bit since high school. So dedicated. I've always admired that about you.
00:50:03Alright, cut the crap, Izzy.
00:50:05Others might buy your ladylike act, but I know you're still the same vicious bully inside.
00:50:11You didn't come to my gym by accident. What's your angle?
00:50:14Neville asked me to befriend you. I don't want to be here.
00:50:18So I can just add that to the list of reasons why I fucking loathe you.
00:50:23What's my angle, Shelby?
00:50:26The complete and utter destruction of Griffin Roy.
00:50:30And if I can take you down with him, all the better.
00:50:39Shelby, listen to me. The press are on their way. I don't have time to explain, but I fucked up.
00:50:44You have to get out of that restaurant. Now.
00:50:50Too late to run. My hubby's here.
00:50:52Leaving so soon, Ms. Trudeau. Or should I say, Mrs. Roy?
00:51:00Come on, Shelby. Pick up. Let me know you got out of there.
00:51:05Who the hell are you?
00:51:07Congressman. Neville LaRoche.
00:51:09I understand why your husband probably never mentioned me.
00:51:12Seeing as how there's so much he hasn't told you.
00:51:15Please, sit down.
00:51:17Isabel was supposed to keep you company until after I arrived.
00:51:21No matter. We'll do this the less genteel way if we must.
00:51:27Both of these men are retired Navy SEALs.
00:51:30I've heard a lot about your fighting skills, so I came prepared.
00:51:40What's this about?
00:51:43What's this about?
00:51:45I spoke with your stepmother, Margo.
00:51:48She had quite the story to tell.
00:51:51It seems Roy has led you to believe that he's some bum on the streets.
00:51:56When actually, he's just about one of the wealthiest men in the state.
00:52:01I can't believe you fell for that.
00:52:04Not so smart now, are you, Shelby?
00:52:07You're lying.
00:52:09You are Roy's secret bride.
00:52:12A woman he is so ashamed of, he would hide the marriage for the rest of the world.
00:52:17When the press arrives, you will share your story of betrayal with the voters of Louisiana,
00:52:23so that they may know what kind of man Roy really is.
00:52:36Hey, I got you.
00:52:40Let me go.
00:52:42Shelby, please.
00:52:44Why did you keep your marriage a secret?
00:52:46You guys have a right to know.
00:52:47What else are you hiding?
00:52:49You son of a bitch.
00:52:51Now, Roy, don't blame others for your own stupid mistakes.
00:53:06Shelby, Shelby, please, hear me out.
00:53:09Don't shell me.
00:53:12God, all of your charm, it's just a lie.
00:53:15I never meant to let it get this far.
00:53:17I planned on coming clean.
00:53:19More lies, Griffin Roy?
00:53:21I was going to tell you today.
00:53:22Convenient.
00:53:24Why didn't you just tell me you were a billionaire from the start?
00:53:27Did you actually think I'd come after you for your money?
00:53:30That was always a possibility.
00:53:34Get away from my house.
00:53:36This is technically my home.
00:53:39God, how's sitting my ass?
00:53:42You are the worst, and I never want to see you again.
00:53:47Shelby.
00:53:54Professional candidate Griffin Roy has a secret bride.
00:53:57Our reporter is...
00:54:13Oh.
00:54:29Can I get a sip of that?
00:54:43Ah.
00:54:55This is private property.
00:54:57Which I own.
00:54:58Liar. Pierce Durand owns this building.
00:55:01He works for me.
00:55:03Then I'll move.
00:55:04I don't want to owe you anything.
00:55:13Oh, Shelby, Shelby, come out, would you please?
00:55:19I wake up in the morning and reach for you, but you're not there.
00:55:32I can't breathe at the thought of losing you.
00:55:37Mr. Roy, do you think she'll ever forgive you?
00:55:41You're ridiculous. You do know that, don't you?
00:55:45Oh, Shelby, Shelby, don't leave me hanging.
00:55:49What are you doing? You're supposed to turn it on.
00:55:52Yeah.
00:55:54I got it from a pawn shop.
00:55:57It's broken.
00:55:58Guy totally scammed me.
00:56:00You are beyond ridiculous.
00:56:02Please.
00:56:05You are beyond ridiculous.
00:56:07Please, Shelby.
00:56:09I didn't say what I wanted to before.
00:56:12Just give me a chance to explain.
00:56:17Fine.
00:56:19Come in, you fool.
00:56:21I'll come in on my own.
00:56:23Out.
00:56:27You have two minutes.
00:56:35Growing up as a Roy, no one ever liked me for me.
00:56:42It's always been about the money, the excess.
00:56:48Then, at a moment, three years ago, where someone did like me for me,
00:56:57they had no idea who I was.
00:57:00And I just remember how freeing it felt.
00:57:07So when I met you, and I felt that spark I've been searching for,
00:57:13I didn't think.
00:57:15I just fucking left.
00:57:18Why wait so long to tell me?
00:57:20I've never gone into enemy territory to cut off weapons supply routes.
00:57:27I boxed in prep school.
00:57:29Yeah, you got that right.
00:57:32But otherwise, I've always been more of a lover rather than a fighter.
00:57:38And I've done well as a lawyer.
00:57:40But I did not earn those billions.
00:57:44I inherited them from generations of dickheads.
00:57:52When you meet a girl, it's a total package.
00:57:55You just want to be her total package, too.
00:57:58You really are ridiculous.
00:58:01You know, I have laughed more with you in the past two weeks than I have in my entire life.
00:58:07I'm way too serious, Griffin.
00:58:09Sometimes I forget how to let go.
00:58:12But with you, every day is fun.
00:58:15So, does that mean you forgive me?
00:58:18I'm thinking about it.
00:58:22Yeah.
00:58:24You think too much.
00:58:25Time for make-up sex.
00:58:31So, that's make-up sex.
00:58:34Yeah.
00:58:39Griffin, it hurts so much thinking we were over.
00:58:43I never want to feel like that again.
00:58:46I promise not to let anything get in between us.
00:58:55This changes everything.
00:58:58No, thanks for the heads up.
00:59:00I'd appreciate it if you could keep it buried for as long as possible.
00:59:11Mom?
00:59:13I want to stay right here.
00:59:17Where the hell are you, Griff?
00:59:20This is DEFCON 1.
00:59:22Hey, man.
00:59:23Seriously? That's all you have to say?
00:59:25Seriously? That's all you have to say?
00:59:31Come on.
00:59:37How could you keep something like this from me?
00:59:39We've known each other since college.
00:59:41What are you talking about?
00:59:43Didn't you get any of my texts or calls?
00:59:45I must have forgot to charge it.
00:59:48I had quite a night last night.
00:59:50Shelby and I made up.
00:59:52She's forgiven me.
00:59:53Well, she won't forgive you for this.
00:59:57You're a goddamn bigamist, Griffin Roy.
01:00:03Michelle Lane.
01:00:05I don't even know who that is.
01:00:07Well, you knew her well enough to marry her three years ago.
01:00:10This can't be right.
01:00:12I got it from a parish clerk.
01:00:14She's agreed to keep it hush-hush for now.
01:00:16The ceremony was conducted at a church.
01:00:18The priest signed and completed the marriage certificate.
01:00:22Father Timothy O'Shea.
01:00:27I now pronounce ye man and wife.
01:00:31The Masked Girl from Mardi Gras.
01:00:33I finally know her name.
01:00:36The Masked Girl from Mardi Gras.
01:00:39I finally know her name.
01:00:41Michelle.
01:00:42Shit.
01:00:44That finally makes sense.
01:00:46Of course you wouldn't knowingly become a bigamist.
01:00:49Shelby.
01:00:51Fuck.
01:00:53What am I gonna tell her?
01:00:54Look, it could still be one big mistake.
01:00:57I need to talk to that priest.
01:01:05I have something for you.
01:01:14I hacked into the parish database.
01:01:16Griffin Roy is legally married to both Michelle Lane and Shelby Trudeau.
01:01:21That's it. He's finished.
01:01:24Griffin Roy will be in jail for bigamy for cocktail hour.
01:01:29Michelle Lane is Shelby Trudeau.
01:01:32They're legally married to each other on two separate occasions.
01:01:35They just don't know it yet.
01:01:38That's insane.
01:01:39Check the date.
01:01:40They got married the first time during Mardi Gras.
01:01:43Roy was obviously publicly intoxicated.
01:01:46We could use that angle.
01:01:47Yeah, the romance is already trending.
01:01:50He made an idiot of himself with that boombox and voters.
01:01:54Oh, they're just eating it up.
01:01:57He's catching up in the polls.
01:02:00Now Roy unknowingly marries twice the girl he's been searching for since Mardi Gras.
01:02:06This will make them seem like some faded love story.
01:02:13This will make them seem like some faded love story.
01:02:18We got nothing on him.
01:02:20Honey, we've got everything we need.
01:02:23What they don't know can definitely hurt them.
01:02:26And right now, to Griffin Roy, Michelle Lane could be anybody.
01:02:33You would have given Machiavelli a run for his money, my dear.
01:02:37Who?
01:02:41Well, we have a very limited window to make this work.
01:02:45We will hit hard, but fast.
01:02:52What is she going to say when I tell her I'm married?
01:02:56All right, ladies, good job. That's it for tonight.
01:03:00Remember, this weekend's Mardi Gras. Have fun.
01:03:04But you know what to do if anybody messes with you.
01:03:06Nice work.
01:03:08Hi.
01:03:10Hungry?
01:03:14Yeah, so today's class went super well.
01:03:17Two new students. They really seem to pick up on a lot of things.
01:03:20You're everything I've ever wanted.
01:03:22Everything I didn't even dare to dream.
01:03:25You're it for me. I can't lose you.
01:03:28Griffin, are you okay?
01:03:32Yeah. Just some stuff for the campaign.
01:03:37I want to help. LaRoche can't win.
01:03:40He and Isabel are evil. You're the kind of man that people need.
01:03:44I can't imagine anyone else but myself.
01:03:47I'll come by the campaign office tomorrow.
01:03:50We will plan a siege that surrounds them from all sides.
01:03:54That sounds amazing, Cheryl.
01:04:03Father?
01:04:07I remembered the two of you.
01:04:09You had it, lad. That special spark.
01:04:13I don't see it often in couples, but when I do, it makes an impression.
01:04:17You must be mistaken. This woman and I, we'd met that day.
01:04:21And you were already finishing each other's sentences, dying to tie the knot. There was no stopping you.
01:04:26I was drunk.
01:04:28Drunk with love. The man I married knew what he was doing.
01:04:32I mean, how is this even legal? New Orleans has a 24-hour waiting period.
01:04:36Unless the judge waives it.
01:04:38Son of a bitch. Who was it?
01:04:40He was your best man. You called him Remy.
01:04:43Remy Calhoun. That bastard.
01:04:46No wonder he always had that stupid smirk on his face whenever I stood before him in court.
01:04:52Fuck!
01:04:54Fuck!
01:04:58I don't care. I don't care.
01:05:00We need to annul the marriage now. I love my wife.
01:05:03You're in a bit of a pickle.
01:05:05Because in my book, you love Joe the wife as well.
01:05:13Sir.
01:05:15Mrs. Rose in your office with Mr. Durand.
01:05:17Shelby.
01:05:22Griffin, this is the woman you've been looking for.
01:05:25This is Michelle Lane.
01:05:28Hi, Griffin. You might not remember me, but we got married three years ago.
01:05:39So you've been an escort for seven years.
01:05:42That's right. Since high school.
01:05:44And that really is your toddler?
01:05:46My baby girl Fleur. She has no daddy. This will be good for her.
01:05:54If I may ask, how will she pass the DNA test?
01:05:57That is the least of your worries.
01:06:00All right, chop chop.
01:06:07Now action.
01:06:10Hi, Griffin. You might not remember me, but we got married three years ago.
01:06:15It was Mardi Gras.
01:06:17We were completely wasted, and we ended up in some church with an Irish priest.
01:06:22We had a wild night at the hotel, and well...
01:06:25Fleur was the happy accident nine months later.
01:06:32It can't be true. I've never met you in my life.
01:06:35I mean, you were wearing masks.
01:06:37Yes, that's right. We were.
01:06:39By the time I found out I was pregnant, two months had passed.
01:06:42I've been trying to find you ever since, but it wasn't until I saw one of your ads for Congress that I recognized your voice.
01:06:48It was a miracle.
01:06:50It's too much. She's losing him.
01:06:53Tone it down. Tone it down.
01:06:58Listen, lady, I don't know who you're trying to con with this ad.
01:07:01Griffin, don't.
01:07:03But there is no way in hell that I'm married to you.
01:07:07What's going on, Griffin?
01:07:11Is this woman really your wife?
01:07:16No, she's not. We don't know.
01:07:19Which is it?
01:07:21You were my wife. Only you.
01:07:25I understand this is a lot to take in.
01:07:27Fleur and I will just go. I'll have my lawyer reach out.
01:07:31No. No lawyers. We don't need to involve any authorities.
01:07:35This can all be solved with a simple DNA test.
01:07:39Pierce, this woman is a fraud.
01:07:42Griffin, think about it. She says Fleur is your daughter.
01:07:45One little test and that'll prove if she's lying or not.
01:07:48We need to know, Griffin. I need to know.
01:07:53Fine. But I don't want these doubts to fester.
01:07:56We can rush the DNA results and get them back in a few hours.
01:07:59Might I suggest a more private setting? Less eyes.
01:08:03Understood. We can wait back at my house for the results to come.
01:08:13We've got him. You're up.
01:08:47Cute kid.
01:08:49Don't. Just don't.
01:08:52Shelby go upstairs.
01:08:54She fed them snacks and then locked herself in the guest room.
01:09:01I can't lose her, Pierce. I won't.
01:09:06DOORBELL RINGS
01:09:14Moment of truth, buddy.
01:09:17DOORBELL RINGS
01:09:35Fleur, meet your daddy.
01:09:39I will, of course, provide for you both financially.
01:09:44Fleur doesn't need a checkbook. She needs a father.
01:10:03What do you want?
01:10:05The guest bedroom is empty. You and Fleur can stay there.
01:10:11Shelby, just don't do this.
01:10:16Just give me some time. I can fix it.
01:10:20This isn't something you fix.
01:10:22You can't be legally married to two women at the same time and you have a child with one of them.
01:10:29We need to get a divorce.
01:10:34She's right, Griff.
01:10:36Griffin, you have a daughter now.
01:10:38You're a father and you have to put your child first.
01:10:42I can't be Marco. I won't do that to another little girl.
01:10:48I have spent my whole life looking for you.
01:10:54How can I let you go?
01:10:59Sometimes love isn't enough.
01:11:02How'd you know Shelby would leave him because of the kid?
01:11:05Shelby's dedicated her life to saving people. It's not in her nature to put herself first.
01:11:10Oh, you're a scary woman.
01:11:13I know.
01:11:18Hi, um, can I get your name?
01:11:20Shelby Trudeau.
01:11:21We've been expecting you.
01:11:24We've been expecting you.
01:11:32So this is what it feels like to have your heart shattered?
01:11:53Shelby.
01:12:23That's strange. I thought I heard something.
01:12:54It's like she was never here.
01:13:09Hey, mister.
01:13:11Will you marry me?
01:13:14She took everything but left this behind.
01:13:17Will you marry me?
01:13:20She took everything but left this behind.
01:13:23Message received, Shelby.
01:13:35What the hell is this?
01:13:38I know this sounds crazy and there's no time to explain, but if you help me, I promise a generous reward once I get my inheritance.
01:13:45This place is insane. The owner must really trust you.
01:13:53Could it be?
01:14:05It's her. It's always been her.
01:14:10Yeah, it went better than I expected.
01:14:13Yeah, it went better than I expected.
01:14:15As soon as you saw the forged DNA test, it was a done deal.
01:14:18Who is she working for?
01:14:19How long am I supposed to stay here while you take care of Shelby?
01:14:23Give me a name. Come on, just one name.
01:14:25Mrs. LaRoche, that's cutting it close. I want to be long gone when he finds out she's dead.
01:14:32Where is Shelby? Where is my wife?
01:14:36Where is this about taking her?
01:14:37I don't know what you're talking about.
01:14:39I will have you put away for the rest of your life and your daughter will grow up in a fucking orphanage.
01:14:45I don't know where she is. If I knew, I'd tell you, I swear.
01:15:01What is wrong with me?
01:15:04Help! Somebody help!
01:15:09Do you need some water?
01:15:11Wait, I see you've already had some.
01:15:14You poisoned me? Why?
01:15:18Why? Why? Where to begin?
01:15:24Lingering high school issues. Offs. I'm helping Neville's campaign. Duh.
01:15:29But the real reason, the one that cuts deep, is to make Griffin Roy think he's a bigamist.
01:15:36By the time he figures out he married the same woman twice, he'll have gone missing. Vanished without a trace.
01:15:45He'll be forced to withdraw from the race.
01:15:48Later, when an anonymous tip tells the police where to find your body, suspicion will follow Griffin for the rest of his life.
01:15:55Any political future he may have had will be as dead as you. Net?
01:16:01Back up. Married? Twice?
01:16:06Who's the... the woman in the little girl?
01:16:11Oh, just some cheap whore I hired to tell your husband that they've been married for the past three years.
01:16:18When really, it's been you all along.
01:16:21When really, it's been you all along.
01:16:25You've been searching for each other all this time, but now he'll never find you.
01:16:31Alright boys, she's all yours.
01:16:40I told you I'd get you back.
01:16:47Miss Tudor, why are you here?
01:16:49Why are you here?
01:16:50My daughter, my baby Cece, I'm scared she's gonna do something terrible.
01:16:56What do you mean terrible? What's going on?
01:16:58I sold everything to get her out on bail, and what does she do in return?
01:17:04She's gone crazy.
01:17:06She's stalking Shelby.
01:17:08She tailed her to some hotel in the French Quarter.
01:17:14What hotel?
01:17:16Excuse me sir, my sister's staying here but I've forgotten her room number.
01:17:20Is Shelby Trudeau?
01:17:22Sorry ma'am, we can't disclose any guest information.
01:17:32Shelby.
01:17:35Come out, come out, wherever you are.
01:17:46I think I'll do it with my bare hands.
01:17:49Makes it more personal.
01:17:52Actually, do me a favor.
01:17:54Leave a lot of marks on that face of hers.
01:17:58Fuck you.
01:17:59I want people to see that she suffered, a lot.
01:18:03Well trust me, she will.
01:18:05Come on, let's get this party started.
01:18:16Look what you've done.
01:18:20Pansy-ass slap.
01:18:23She's stalling, and you're falling for it.
01:18:26Damn, can't go to the valet smelling like a dive bar.
01:18:30I'll never give you your car keys.
01:18:32Shelby has clothes over there.
01:18:34James.
01:18:36I'll take care of me.
01:18:38I'll take care of you.
01:18:40Shelby has clothes over there.
01:18:42James.
01:18:43I'll take care of me.
01:18:45You go take care of her.
01:18:52I found it, Griff.
01:18:53Shelby Trudeau changed her name to Michelle Lane.
01:18:56It was after her parents divorced at her mother's request.
01:18:59She only returned to her original name after her mother passed three years ago.
01:19:06It's starting to make sense now.
01:19:09It was harder on my mom.
01:19:11She didn't want anything to do with him, so I cut him off too.
01:19:14Even started using my mom's maiden name.
01:19:17She's the one you've been looking for.
01:19:19It's been her all this time.
01:19:21How could I be so blind?
01:19:23Of course it had to be Shelby, it had to be her.
01:19:27My heart knew what my brain couldn't see.
01:19:30I got it.
01:19:31Your girl's in room 801.
01:19:34Thanks, man.
01:19:36I'm gonna go save the love of my life.
01:19:44Too much to drink.
01:19:53Stop right there.
01:19:59Not so fast.
01:20:03Griff and fucking Roy.
01:20:05Finally joined the party.
01:20:07I'm here for my wife.
01:20:09Not gonna happen, brah.
01:20:11What you've done here is aggravated assault.
01:20:14But if you leave this hotel with her, it's kidnapping.
01:20:17That is a federal crime.
01:20:19They'll bring in the FBI.
01:20:22Someone will have to be around to identify us.
01:20:24That sure as hell won't be you.
01:20:28Did you get all that, Pierce?
01:20:30Police are on their way.
01:20:31Hang in there, buddy.
01:20:34You're not getting out of here alive, Roy.
01:20:54Give me my wife back now!
01:21:04Get off me!
01:21:12Shelby, you all right?
01:21:34Yeah.
01:21:49Griff, my God.
01:21:50Do you need medical attention?
01:21:52No, but they do.
01:22:03I guess I renewed my man card.
01:22:05Sure did, honey.
01:22:07Fucked them up real good.
01:22:11Oh, Lord.
01:22:12Please tell me there's something other than fatigues and combat boots in this thing.
01:22:24Shelby!
01:22:25You little bitch!
01:22:27Did I not say I'd come back here and settle the score?
01:22:31What?
01:22:32That's not—
01:22:33Shelby!
01:22:36Put your hands up or I can see them.
01:22:42This is the last one.
01:22:43Hey, hey, hey.
01:22:44I want to make a deal.
01:22:45What do you have to offer up?
01:22:47Congressman Neville LaRoche.
01:22:49I'm all ears.
01:22:57Is it really over?
01:22:59Yeah, it is.
01:23:01Griffin, Isabel said something, and I want to believe it, but three years ago, did we—
01:23:11You left us.
01:23:19It's true.
01:23:22I can't believe I finally found you.
01:23:25I looked for you in the face of every woman I ever met.
01:23:29Why'd you never come back?
01:23:48It's called a walk of shame, not a laugh of it.
01:23:51Mind your own business, Cece.
01:23:53Look at you, Shelby.
01:23:55One Mardi Gras hookup and you think you found happily ever after.
01:23:59That's not how laugh works.
01:24:01Sure, he may have liked you with a mask on, but he's not going to want you with it off.
01:24:06Look, you both have a great memory now.
01:24:09But you'll look back and you'll see that you're just the clueless chick who didn't know the score.
01:24:16You'll embarrass yourself.
01:24:17And more importantly, you'll embarrass him.
01:24:25I waited in that hotel for two days.
01:24:28I'm sorry I let her get to me.
01:24:30But to be honest, what we had seemed too good to be true.
01:24:34How often do people fall in love with someone without ever seeing their face?
01:24:38Exactly.
01:24:42But I did.
01:24:44And I do.
01:24:46Where do we go from here?
01:24:48Married twice.
01:24:49Deeply in love.
01:24:51Risked our lives to save each other.
01:24:53I'd say we live happily ever after.
01:24:58Shelby.
01:25:00Will you...
01:25:01Yes, Griffin Roy.
01:25:06I will always love you.
01:25:08In this life or the next.
