00:00:00Bella?
00:00:04Bella!
00:00:05Where did she go?
00:00:06The gardener says Miss Bella's not on the grounds.
00:00:09She's disappeared again.
00:00:11We'll tell the design team to go big or go home.
00:00:13We're not building some quaint bed and breakfast.
00:00:16This is a billion dollar Barlow resort on a private island off Dubai.
00:00:21We need to crush this.
00:00:22Crush!
00:00:23Crush!
00:00:25Crush!
00:00:26Steve, I have to call you back.
00:00:29How did you get in here, Bella?
00:00:32My little escape artist.
00:00:37What am I gonna tell Mr. Barlow?
00:00:39Pulse alarm. She's here, everyone.
00:00:45Thank God!
00:00:47I only took my eyes off her for a second.
00:00:49She needs a leash.
00:00:51I'm not a dog.
00:00:52No, a dog behaves better.
00:00:55Daddy.
00:00:56Okay, everyone, let's get back to it.
00:00:58These decorations aren't gonna put themselves up.
00:01:00Miss Delaney, I'm sorry.
00:01:01I will be hiring a new nanny soon.
00:01:04Well, how long you think this one gonna last?
00:01:06She's scared off three in a year.
00:01:09I don't want a nanny.
00:01:10I want a mommy.
00:01:22I'm not ever leaving.
00:01:24Can you see? It's a circus out there.
00:01:25Like a literal freaking circus.
00:01:27Oh my God, there's jugglers, there's clowns,
00:01:29there's even a man on stilts.
00:01:30Can you imagine having a birthday like this
00:01:32when you were just eight years old?
00:01:33Foster kid here.
00:01:34I used to blow out imaginary candles
00:01:35and dream of real cake.
00:01:41This is my favorite part.
00:01:44Somebody's a little too in touch with their inner child.
00:01:49When your mother proposes blind date,
00:01:51I was a little hesitant.
00:01:53I just couldn't believe that
00:01:55any man can live up to the image that she painted.
00:01:58Yes, she's very good at talking me up.
00:02:00In your case,
00:02:02she really didn't do justice.
00:02:05I'd love to slip away from the crowd and get to know you better.
00:02:09You're at my eight-year-old's birthday party.
00:02:11I wasn't interested before, but now I want you to leave.
00:02:18Wait for it.
00:02:23Why, hello, mother.
00:02:24Julian.
00:02:25Bianca is hysterical and you have embarrassed me.
00:02:29Well, stop setting me up with random women.
00:02:31I'm not getting married again.
00:02:32Once was enough.
00:02:33Kendra and the race car driver have ended it.
00:02:36Right now, you have sole custody of Bella.
00:02:39But the courts favor the mother, Julian.
00:02:41You and I both know Kendra could show up at any time
00:02:44and demand that Bella live with her just to spite you.
00:02:48I'm not letting that witch anywhere near my daughter.
00:02:51Find yourself a wife
00:02:53and show the world a stable family.
00:02:55Not for your own happiness, but for your child's.
00:03:02Mother might be dramatic,
00:03:04but she's right about Bella needing a mom.
00:03:07Perhaps a fake wife would do.
00:03:11Got vanilla for you.
00:03:14What's your favorite flavor?
00:03:17Chocolate.
00:03:18So, do you want to know what makes everything taste so good?
00:03:22The secret ingredient is
00:03:27love.
00:03:38Well, I'm so exhausted.
00:03:39I'm heading home.
00:03:40You coming?
00:03:41I'm gonna stay and finish the engagement cake for tomorrow.
00:03:42Okay.
00:03:45Hey, Bernie.
00:03:47Let me grab you the day holds.
00:03:53Tell Rose and Pete I included the pecan cinnamon rolls just for them.
00:04:07Oh my gosh.
00:04:09You scared me.
00:04:11Where did you come from, sweetheart?
00:04:12Where are your parents?
00:04:14Are you lost?
00:04:17What's your name?
00:04:18I'm Everly.
00:04:19What's your name?
00:04:20I'm Everly.
00:04:23You don't want to tell me, huh?
00:04:26Guess I'll just have to guess.
00:04:29Your name is Olga.
00:04:33Gertrude.
00:04:35Prudence.
00:04:36Hazel.
00:04:37Constance.
00:04:38Phyllis.
00:04:38Henrietta.
00:04:42Bertha.
00:04:43It's Bella!
00:04:46The birthday girl.
00:04:47She must have stowed away in the truck.
00:04:48Bella!
00:04:50You scared me, Bella Barlow.
00:04:59Sorry, Daddy.
00:05:00What were you thinking?
00:05:01I found my mommy!
00:05:07I'm so sorry.
00:05:07She's never done anything like this.
00:05:10I want Everly to be my mommy.
00:05:12Bella Munchkin, please.
00:05:15You know, my daddy has lots of money.
00:05:18All you have to do is marry him and be my mommy.
00:05:21Bella, you don't marry someone for money.
00:05:24You do it because you love them so much.
00:05:27And it feels like they're a part of you.
00:05:30Like you can't picture your life without them in it.
00:05:35I know you're supposed to be my mommy.
00:05:39I'm engaged to someone else.
00:05:42Come on, Bella.
00:05:44We've taken up enough of Miss Harper's time.
00:05:47So a hot guy and a cute little girl were like,
00:05:56come be my Insta family?
00:05:58The little girl was.
00:05:59The dad was kind of mortified.
00:06:01Bella reminds me of what I was like after the car accident.
00:06:04Kept going up to perfect strangers looking for my parents.
00:06:07Just couldn't accept that they were gone.
00:06:14Hey, beautiful.
00:06:15I miss you already.
00:06:16When are you back from your business trip?
00:06:18I'm back Monday.
00:06:19We'll see each other then.
00:06:21Are you calling me from the bathroom?
00:06:24No, the guest next door just really loud.
00:06:27I gotta go.
00:06:28I love you.
00:06:34Hello, Earth to Everly.
00:06:37I was just thinking about what I told the little girl.
00:06:40All the reasons you marry someone, but I've never actually
00:06:43felt any of those things.
00:06:44We better decide sooner rather than later.
00:06:47Well, Nolan and I have been together since high school.
00:06:49Loyalty counts for something.
00:06:52At least what we have is real.
00:07:00Okay, this hotel is huge.
00:07:02Where's the engagement party being held?
00:07:05Restaurant.
00:07:11I'm bored.
00:07:12I'm sorry, Munchkin, but after yesterday, I'm
00:07:14not letting you out of my sight.
00:07:16Bella was bad.
00:07:17Bella was very bad, but I'll take you to get ice cream
00:07:21if you're very good.
00:07:24I want cupcake.
00:07:26Nice try, kiddo.
00:07:45That must be the bride-to-be.
00:07:50Hey, delivery for the lovely bride.
00:07:51Can I just get your signature on this really quick?
00:07:58Oh my gosh, Everly.
00:08:02Well, you haven't changed a bit since high school, huh?
00:08:06Still a pathetic orphan with no money or taste.
00:08:11Olivia, this is your engagement party.
00:08:15Who would marry a raging bully like you?
00:08:17Everly, what are you doing here?
00:08:24Nolan, I don't understand.
00:08:27Isn't it obvious, you ignorant nobody?
00:08:32Nolan's been cheating on you.
00:08:35With me.
00:08:42Is it true, Nolan?
00:08:44No, is it true?
00:08:48You've been sleeping with Olivia?
00:08:51You saw how she treated me.
00:08:52She made my high school life a living hell.
00:08:54You hate her just as much as I do.
00:08:58Well, if that's hate sex, then sign me up for a lifetime
00:09:01of it.
00:09:04Nolan's a sexy beast, aren't you, darling?
00:09:07Oh, but you wouldn't know about that, Everly, being the
00:09:10pity fuck that you are.
00:09:13You set this whole thing up, didn't you, Olivia?
00:09:16Did you think you could date both of us?
00:09:18Marry both of us?
00:09:20No.
00:09:22Nolan, you have to choose.
00:09:25You can be with me and live the good life or you can be with
00:09:29this dirty orphan who will always be poor, pathetic, white
00:09:35trash her entire life and who will drag you down with her.
00:09:43I'm sorry.
00:09:45Sorry, Everly.
00:09:46I just I can't be poor.
00:09:48I can't.
00:09:51So sorry.
00:10:00This isn't happening.
00:10:02I'm in some kind of post high school nightmare where the
00:10:04mean girl still wins.
00:10:10I don't like her.
00:10:12She's mean.
00:10:13Hello.
00:10:13Where did you come from?
00:10:16Is she an evil witch?
00:10:17You little shit.
00:10:18Who the hell let this wretched brat in here?
00:10:20Hey, watch your mouth, Olivia.
00:10:23You can't talk to her like that.
00:10:26I can say whatever the hell I want.
00:10:29Both of you, get out.
00:10:32Take this disgusting cake with you.
00:10:34It's garbage, just like you.
00:10:40What are you, crazy?
00:10:40You could have hurt her.
00:10:41Too bad.
00:10:42I missed.
00:10:52Choke on it, bitch.
00:10:58I'm gonna destroy you.
00:11:00Good luck with that.
00:11:02You already tried in high school, but I'm stronger now.
00:11:05Keep rolling with my blessing.
00:11:11Ever flee?
00:11:19Touch my kid and you're dead.
00:11:20Who the hell are you?
00:11:22I'm with her.
00:11:23Since when?
00:11:24That's none of your business.
00:11:28Hold still.
00:11:30You have some frost in there.
00:11:33Please just stop.
00:11:34Don't.
00:11:36It's Julie Barlow, heir of Barlow Hotels and Resorts.
00:11:40He owns this very hotel.
00:11:42You're lucky I don't sue you both for attempting to assault a minor.
00:11:45I didn't know it was your kid.
00:11:47So she's a poor girl, hurting her is okay?
00:11:49This party's over.
00:11:50You two are banned for life from every Barlow property in the world.
00:11:56So this is what having someone stand up for you feels like?
00:12:03They were bad, daddy.
00:12:05There's a lot of bad people out there.
00:12:06That's why you can't run off the way you did.
00:12:09That's how I really want to be with her.
00:12:13You need some rest.
00:12:15Go to the car.
00:12:17I love you, Edwin.
00:12:23Thank you for protecting my daughter.
00:12:25Thank you for saving me from my cheating ex-fiancé.
00:12:33That sounds like a desperate man trying to win you back.
00:12:37Yeah.
00:12:39Not happening.
00:12:45Seems we have a problem, Miss Harper.
00:12:48My daughter's heart is set on you being her mother.
00:12:55You also have a problem with your ex not getting the message.
00:12:59I propose a pretend relationship.
00:13:01Like a fake marriage?
00:13:03Exactly.
00:13:04I can protect you from your ex-fiancé
00:13:06and you can help me protect Bella from herself and my ex
00:13:09if she comes back into town.
00:13:11Is your ex really that bad?
00:13:13Kendra makes your high school nemesis look like a teddy bear.
00:13:18Do we have a deal?
00:13:19What if you want to be with someone for real?
00:13:22I won't.
00:13:24I've sworn I'm not going to get married again.
00:13:34Yes, Mr. Barlow.
00:13:36You have a deal.
00:13:48Tomorrow night is the annual charity gala.
00:13:51Black tie.
00:13:52There we'll introduce you to society.
00:13:54Well, why don't we start out slow?
00:13:58No, my mother will know if we don't show up as newlyweds.
00:14:01Didn't you say she lives in Paris?
00:14:03No, she has spies everywhere.
00:14:06Did you go to the gala with me?
00:14:09I don't, Julian.
00:14:10I'm more flower than flair.
00:14:15We have a boutique at the hotel.
00:14:18I think the right dress will ease some of your stress.
00:14:22I'm still super uncomfortable with all this.
00:14:26I don't want to embarrass you at the gala.
00:14:28Are you always going to be this touchy about my money?
00:14:32Most women can't wait to spend it.
00:14:34I'm a baker, not a socialite.
00:14:37You've been hanging out with the wrong crowd.
00:14:42Maybe I have.
00:14:45Do you mind?
00:14:46My mother will want a picture of the newlyweds.
00:14:57Well, one other thing.
00:15:00Don't fall for me.
00:15:03Same goes for you.
00:15:18Well, hello mother.
00:15:19You're married?
00:15:21Who is this girl?
00:15:23Her name is Eberly Harper.
00:15:25She's a sous chef.
00:15:26Cordon Bleu trained, but she calls herself a baker.
00:15:29Ridiculous.
00:15:31Well, her parents died when she was six.
00:15:34And since then, she's had no relatives.
00:15:37She became a ward of the state.
00:15:39And bounced around foster care.
00:15:42Never really having a permanent home.
00:15:44So she's an orphan without social connections.
00:15:47What are her financials?
00:15:48Well, she has some student loan debt.
00:15:50And her business is barely making it.
00:15:53Despite that, she's won numerous awards and competitions for her.
00:15:58Oh my God.
00:16:00She's dirt poor.
00:16:03You've married a gold digger, Julian.
00:16:05Well, to be honest, my wealth is probably a bad thing in this case.
00:16:09She'd rather me be middle class.
00:16:11Well, then she's a fool.
00:16:13Who wouldn't want a billionaire husband?
00:16:15Well, Bella chose her to be her mother.
00:16:21Well, I'm just upset that my only son didn't inform me he was married.
00:16:24We'll be in touch.
00:16:31That went exactly as expected.
00:16:33Yay! I'm really going to be my new mommy!
00:16:37I should start calling you my little spy.
00:16:39When does she move in?
00:16:42I'm not sure. We haven't had that discussion.
00:16:44And she's going to bake me more magical cookies filled with love.
00:16:48Has she done that before?
00:16:51Well, yes. Soon she'll be here.
00:16:53And she'll bake you many things full of love.
00:16:56Whee! Whee!
00:17:01Wait. You fake Marion, Julian, Barlow?
00:17:05I know. It's insane.
00:17:07Oh my God. You do know that your hubby is worth like a hundred billion dollars, right?
00:17:10Very funny.
00:17:13He didn't.
00:17:15I'm not joking.
00:17:16Whoa. I've never seen that many zeros in one spot.
00:17:19Oh my God. Bestie!
00:17:22You're literally married to one of the richest dudes on the planet.
00:17:24Olivia and her totes are totally going to flip out.
00:17:27We have to go to the high school reunion.
00:17:28I thought you said we were skipping that.
00:17:30Uh-uh. Uh-uh. Not anymore.
00:17:32We are going.
00:17:33Oh, come on. Please, please, please.
00:17:37Think about it.
00:17:40Why would someone like him even want a pretend marriage?
00:17:43I mean, he's charming, handsome, brilliant, and a good dad.
00:17:49Like, he could easily find a real wife.
00:17:51Maybe he's just avoiding commitment. You know, classic playboy move.
00:17:54He doesn't strike me as that type.
00:17:56He doesn't strike me as that type?
00:17:58Look at you, playing the little protective wife already.
00:18:02Shut up.
00:18:04So, when does Miss Barlow make her big debut?
00:18:07Tonight, actually.
00:18:10Care to help me find a dress for some exclusive gala?
00:18:13Oh my God. Oh my God. Oh my God.
00:18:15This is the most exclusive credit card of all credit cards.
00:18:18You can buy an island with this thing.
00:18:20I'm going to be sick.
00:18:21Oh my God.
00:18:22I have to find a way to give it back to him.
00:18:23Everly Harper, you will do no such thing.
00:18:26Can you please just be a little selfish for the both of us and live a little?
00:18:32You're right.
00:18:34Let's do this.
00:18:48Okay, I can't do this. $40,000 for a dress is insane.
00:18:50You could be an entire village for that price.
00:18:52Yeah, crazy world we live in.
00:18:54Hello, ladies.
00:18:56My name is Pilar.
00:18:57Should we try something on?
00:18:59It appears to be your size, but I just have a seamstress on standby.
00:19:03Can I maybe rent it instead?
00:19:05Rent?
00:19:07That'll be $1,000 a day, plus a $4,000 security deposit.
00:19:13Can you afford that?
00:19:16Oh my goodness, what manual labor job do you do?
00:19:19I'm a baker.
00:19:21Absolutely no rental for you.
00:19:23Those rough worker hands will snag the delicate fabric.
00:19:26There's a thrift store down the way that might be more at your speed.
00:19:31You don't understand.
00:19:32I'm attending the annual Celestial Charity Gala tonight.
00:19:34It's strictly black tie.
00:19:35Then what are you doing at Celestial, the most exclusive event in town?
00:19:39I know.
00:19:41You must be a waitress handing out caravans.
00:19:44Just buy it then.
00:19:46This is a black heart.
00:19:48Obviously.
00:19:51Held up at boutique.
00:19:53Not going too well.
00:19:57Well, well, well.
00:19:59This card belongs to Mr. Barlow.
00:20:01How did it end up in your hands?
00:20:03Mr. Barlow happens to be my best friend's husband.
00:20:08As if.
00:20:09You must have stolen it.
00:20:11Security!
00:20:12Arrest this man.
00:20:14Security!
00:20:15Arrest these scammers.
00:20:16What?
00:20:17And fraud.
00:20:18Get your hands off of her, you animal.
00:20:26We're not thieves.
00:20:28You're making a mistake.
00:20:29The card was given to me.
00:20:30We're innocent.
00:20:36Get this trash out of my face.
00:20:40Let them go.
00:20:44Let them go.
00:20:48Mr. Barlow, you're right on time.
00:20:50Okay, I just caught these scammers trying to charge $5,000 to your card.
00:20:54$5,000?
00:20:55When have you ever sold a dress under 30 grand?
00:20:57That was me.
00:20:59I was trying to rent it and said no dress is worth that much.
00:21:02Are you kidding me?
00:21:03Don't fall for this innocent act.
00:21:05She's a clever scammer.
00:21:07Did you see anything you like?
00:21:09This one.
00:21:10But we were told to shop at the thrift shop.
00:21:13I'm Samantha, by the way.
00:21:14I've heard so much about you.
00:21:16Pleasure to meet you, Samantha.
00:21:17Pilar, my wife was looking to outfit herself for tonight's gala entirely through your boutique.
00:21:23Unfortunately, you cut up our card.
00:21:29So she...
00:21:31She really is your...
00:21:34Wife?
00:21:35At Barlow, we believe in treating everyone with respect and dignity.
00:21:39Isn't your lease up in 30 days?
00:21:42Mr. Barlow, I am so, so sorry.
00:21:45Okay, Mrs. Barlow, please.
00:21:46Here.
00:21:47Take the dress.
00:21:48It's on the house.
00:21:49It's not necessary.
00:21:50Just bill my account.
00:21:54And Barlow won't renew your lease.
00:21:56Not here, not anywhere.
00:21:58You're done, Pilar.
00:22:00I'll make sure you never work in retail again.
00:22:09Thanks.
00:22:26I realize right now, this is the first time I'm seeing the real Evelyn.
00:22:30You've been hiding in plain sight.
00:22:32You all right?
00:22:33Look over here.
00:22:34Surplus loan for the night?
00:22:35What's the name, man?
00:22:38I got you.
00:22:39What's her name?
00:22:52I feel like I don't fit in here.
00:22:54You don't fit in, Evelyn.
00:22:56You stand out.
00:22:58Don't be so obvious, Everly.
00:22:59You can't let yourself fall for him.
00:23:01It's true, everyone here is rich.
00:23:03But they're all human.
00:23:04Flaws and all.
00:23:08That's Chase and Daisy Harrington.
00:23:10They're in banking.
00:23:11I don't think you mean they work at the teller window.
00:23:14Chase can often be found at the dog track.
00:23:16And Daisy's a lush.
00:23:18She's probably spiked her wine with vodka already.
00:23:20Julian, that's awful.
00:23:22And that's Lily Blake Dubois.
00:23:25And her second husband.
00:23:26He's 25 years her junior.
00:23:28Men date women who are younger than them all the time.
00:23:31She was the PTA president.
00:23:33And he was in ninth grade.
00:23:34With her son when they met.
00:23:36When they started their affair.
00:23:37Oh, my God.
00:23:38Okay, stop. I get it.
00:23:40I am no longer intimidated by anyone in here.
00:23:45Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:23:50Mind if I join you, lovebirds?
00:23:54I'm too old for surprises, mother.
00:23:56You flew from Paris for nothing.
00:23:58Nothing?
00:24:00You're making a fool of yourself with this gold digger.
00:24:03Miss Barlow, let's get two things straight.
00:24:06One, my name is Everly Harper.
00:24:09And two, I am not a gold digger.
00:24:12I've earned my keep since I was six years old.
00:24:14And I started my business from scratch.
00:24:16I don't need your money.
00:24:18But I would like your respect.
00:24:20So, I won't let anyone talk down to me.
00:24:23Even if you are Julian's mother.
00:24:25Impudent girl.
00:24:26Meddling mother.
00:24:30Aren't you going to say anything?
00:24:33Meddling mother?
00:24:34I couldn't have put it better myself.
00:24:38I don't know what you did to trick my son into marriage.
00:24:41But I have my eye on you, Everly Harper.
00:24:44One false move, and you are through.
00:24:47All right, that's enough.
00:24:49Enjoy your evening alone, mother.
00:24:53Everly, I want to apologize.
00:24:56My mother was out of line.
00:24:58She didn't expect it either.
00:24:59She's so determined, she won't back down.
00:25:02We need to make sure she doesn't start digging into the details of our marriage.
00:25:06So, what's our next steps?
00:25:09I want you to move in with me.
00:25:12I'm sorry.
00:25:14I'm sorry.
00:25:16I'm sorry.
00:25:18I'm sorry.
00:25:21It was going to happen sooner or later.
00:25:24Mother just expedited it.
00:25:26That goes to the kitchen.
00:25:30Living room.
00:25:31Living room.
00:25:32It's just all moving a little too fast.
00:25:34I mean, one minute Julian's asking me to move in with him,
00:25:37and the next, movers are packing my stuff.
00:25:39But you got to love a man that takes action, you know?
00:25:41You are oddly chipper about all this.
00:25:43I mean, here I was feeling bad about leaving you to find a new roommate.
00:25:46I don't know. I think I'm going to try living alone for a while.
00:25:49Samantha, how can you afford that?
00:25:51The new landlord lowered everyone's rent.
00:25:53Since when?
00:25:55Since you became his fake bride.
00:25:57He knew that you feel bad for me,
00:25:59and so he bought the entire apartment complex and lowered everyone's rent.
00:26:03That's...
00:26:05That's...
00:26:06Insane.
00:26:07Romantic.
00:26:08Everly, billionaires don't think like normal people, sweetie.
00:26:11This is your life now.
00:26:12You need to get used to it, okay?
00:26:20Are we going to have gazpacho for dinner?
00:26:22If it pleases Miss Bella to have gazpacho.
00:26:25Hello!
00:26:26Okay, what can I get you today?
00:26:29You're welcome.
00:26:37Shouldn't take me longer than two days to inspect the site in Indonesia.
00:26:41Are you sure you can watch Bella?
00:26:43I haven't hired a nanny yet, and she tires Miss Delaney out.
00:26:47Don't worry about us. You focus on work.
00:26:49Bella and I will be just fine.
00:26:51I'll take her to the bakery with me. She'll have a blast.
00:26:53Here's a detailed list of her routines,
00:26:56do's and don'ts, allergies,
00:26:58emergency contact information,
00:27:00all the information you'll ever need.
00:27:02Love soccer, allergic to strawberries, doctor's number.
00:27:06I'm impressed.
00:27:07I wouldn't have thought a CEO like you would be this hands-on with this kid.
00:27:10Well, you thought wrong.
00:27:12Bella means the world to me.
00:27:17I love you.
00:27:25Daddy, why are you staring at Emily like that?
00:27:29You like her.
00:27:31Sorry, she doesn't know what she's talking about.
00:27:33Sometimes kids have a way of knowing the truth.
00:27:36They also have a way of being annoying.
00:27:38Well, anyways, me and Bun Bun wanted to play airplane.
00:27:42All right, Munchkin, you have one minute.
00:27:45Yippee!
00:27:47Ready?
00:27:48Yeah!
00:27:53So this is what a happy family looks like.
00:27:56It looks so nice.
00:27:58I wonder if we could be a real family someday.
00:28:00Just the three of us.
00:28:06Okay, chef, what's on the menu today?
00:28:09Chocolate cupcakes and chocolate donuts
00:28:13and chocolate cake.
00:28:15Oh, and chocolate chip cookies.
00:28:17I'm sensing a chocolate theme.
00:28:19Okay, it's time to get to work, chef.
00:28:21Whoopee, chef!
00:28:27Ta-da!
00:28:28What do you think, chef?
00:28:33I can taste the love.
00:28:34What?
00:28:35The magic ingredient. I can taste it.
00:28:37That's good.
00:28:40Um, Evelyn?
00:28:43Do you like my dad?
00:28:45Of course I like him.
00:28:47He's a great guy and a good dad.
00:28:49So you could become my mommy for real?
00:28:52Bella, I don't know what the future holds,
00:28:56but I know you have a very special place in my heart, okay?
00:29:00Okay.
00:29:05Whoa, that was fast.
00:29:09Okay, time for a rest.
00:29:14Daddy!
00:29:23Oh, my God, I'm falling for him.
00:29:28Daddy!
00:29:30Did you miss me, Munchkin?
00:29:32So much, but Everly's the best.
00:29:34I got to be a chef.
00:29:36And we had a movie marathon.
00:29:38And I got to sleep in sheep tents in the living room.
00:29:41And we ate in the kitchen with Mrs. Delaney,
00:29:44who was all frowny, but then she was all smiley.
00:29:47I like the kitchen better than the dining room.
00:29:49Can we eat there from now on?
00:29:51I see you've made some changes.
00:29:53Very minor ones.
00:29:55Oops, did I say something bad?
00:29:57No, Munchkin, Daddy's just learning his little set in his ways.
00:30:00You can do everything, Dad, but you're a bad cook.
00:30:03And Everly's way better at girl stuff.
00:30:05You're like the prince, and Everly's the princess.
00:30:07And we can all live happily ever after.
00:30:09With fun ones, of course.
00:30:15Kids and their fairy tales.
00:30:18She'll understand that we can't be more than a pretend couple when she's older.
00:30:22Of course. She's still too little.
00:30:25We can't be more than a pretend couple.
00:30:27Right. It felt so real.
00:30:29I let myself forget it was a fake marriage.
00:30:32It can never be anything more.
00:30:35Oh, my God. You have to go.
00:30:44Come on. Olivia and Nolan are going to gossip about us if you do not show your face at all.
00:30:48They're going to do that regardless.
00:30:50I'm sorry, Sammy. I thought about it, and I don't want to go to our high school reunion.
00:30:53Okay, hear me out. Just picture this.
00:30:55You walk in with your new, hot, billionaire husband.
00:30:58It's the perfect revenge for the mean girls that used to call us poor losers.
00:31:01No, I would never use Julian in that way.
00:31:04Well, the thing is, I already told them that you would be there with him.
00:31:08Okay, don't get upset. Don't get upset.
00:31:10It's just that Olivia posted that we were lying skinks, and then it kind of just blew up from there.
00:31:13And then all of this...
00:31:14And Samantha, you make everything ten times worse.
00:31:16Don't worry. I'll go with you.
00:31:18I can't let my wife be humiliated.
00:31:20I came by to take you to dinner as a thank you for helping me with Bella.
00:31:25Did he really mean that? His wife?
00:31:28You should take the day off tomorrow and go pamper yourself.
00:31:31I'll make the arrangements with the hotel spa.
00:31:33On one condition. Can you make the reservation for two?
00:31:38I can do that.
00:31:46I want to get my nails done, too.
00:31:48What color do you want to get, Bella?
00:31:50The exact same as you. I also want to get some for Bun Bun.
00:31:53Mm-hmm.
00:31:54He looks slay with those.
00:31:55You're so adorable. How could any mother abandon you?
00:32:01I wish you were really mine.
00:32:08Oh, my.
00:32:09Mr. Barlow said that you might need some help getting into it.
00:32:14I can't wear that, Miss Delaney. It's too beautiful and definitely way too expensive.
00:32:19Nonsense, dear.
00:32:21Mr. Barlow said to tell you you're the only one that can do it justice.
00:32:26Now, let's see it all yet.
00:32:36I want to thank you for the dress. I'll find a way to pay you back.
00:32:40Seeing you in it is payment enough. You are dropped dead gorgeous, Everly.
00:32:46It's not me. It's the dress.
00:32:48Why do you do that? Why do you downplay your beauty?
00:32:51I don't like to draw attention to myself.
00:32:54You shouldn't have to dim your light to make others feel good about themselves.
00:33:11Mr. Barlow, sir, there is a visitor here demanding to speak with you.
00:33:16I'm not expecting anyone.
00:33:18It's your ex-wife.
00:33:25It's your ex-wife.
00:33:34I put Miss Rossi in the guest room.
00:33:35Where's Bella?
00:33:36She's with Miss Delaney in the playroom.
00:33:38Good. We need to keep Bella away from Kendra.
00:33:42I have to deal with her. I'll join you at the reunion when I'm done.
00:33:45I can just not go.
00:33:46No, Kendra is not going to disrupt our plans. My driver will take you there. I promise.
00:33:55It's been so long, Julian.
00:33:57Not long enough. What do you want?
00:33:59I want my daughter. I want Bella.
00:34:10I heard Everly is coming to the reunion.
00:34:13I thought that she would never show her face here ever again.
00:34:17Everly? The foster kid weirdo?
00:34:20Well, she destroyed my engagement party, so I'm going to destroy her tonight.
00:34:24Didn't Samantha say she's married to Julian Barlow?
00:34:27What if he's going to come with her?
00:34:29He might fuck her, but a Barlow is not going to marry trash like her.
00:34:34See you later.
00:34:49She should be mine.
00:34:57Eyes on me, Nolan.
00:34:59They really did recreate senior prom.
00:35:01Yep, all the way to the tacky decorations and the cheesy DJ.
00:35:05Last time I was here, I was with Nolan.
00:35:07My foster mom at the time helped make my dress, and it looked it.
00:35:11We didn't even get our first dance before Olivia told everyone I had an STD.
00:35:15That's right, and then Nolan couldn't take it and he bailed.
00:35:18We should have known then that he was a dick.
00:35:20Yeah, I forgave him.
00:35:21No one could stand up for Olivia, myself included at that time.
00:35:25Let's slay this bitch. I mean the dance, of course.
00:35:29That dress looks like it cost a fortune.
00:35:33What do you think, Olivia? You're a fashion expert.
00:35:36It can't be the Nightingale of Hanoi.
00:35:39That dress is worth millions.
00:35:42It's just a cheap knockoff.
00:35:44Come on, girls. Let's give Everly a high school reunion she'll never forget.
00:35:50Let's give Everly a high school reunion she'll never forget.
00:35:55Hey, where's your husband?
00:35:57Julian's on his way.
00:35:58Shut up, loser. No one's talking to you.
00:36:00Bitch.
00:36:01Give it up, Everly. We all know he got bored and dumped you.
00:36:08Like, okay.
00:36:10Did you just fucking shrug at me?
00:36:13Apparently you've forgotten your place.
00:36:15Must be that dress giving you attitude, but it's a cheap knockoff just like you.
00:36:20I don't think it's a knockoff. It's a gift from my husband.
00:36:24Give it up, bitch.
00:36:26Bitch?
00:36:27We all know you're lying, your husband, your dress.
00:36:31I call bullshit.
00:36:32Grow up, Olivia. You're too old to still be a mean girl.
00:36:46Hey, no, no, no.
00:36:47Let go of me, Nolan.
00:36:48Get your hands off of her.
00:36:50Just because you're fucking a Barlow doesn't make you royalty.
00:36:54Take that fake dress off, or I'll take it off for you.
00:36:57What makes you think it's fake?
00:36:59You clueless bitch.
00:37:01I'm a fashion influencer.
00:37:04With 1.8 million followers, you expect me to believe that white trash like you
00:37:10are wearing the Nightingale of Hanoi gown valued at $10 million?
00:37:18That's why Julian grinned when I said I'd pay him back for the dress.
00:37:22Take it off.
00:37:25Fuck.
00:37:27Hey!
00:37:28No, get off of her!
00:37:32Oh, my God.
00:37:33Let me go.
00:37:35No!
00:37:36Nolan!
00:37:37No!
00:37:38Abner, wait!
00:37:39No!
00:37:43Stop!
00:37:44Get away from my wife!
00:37:49Get away from my wife!
00:37:55Fuck.
00:38:03I'm sorry I'm late.
00:38:05The dress is ruined.
00:38:07Please tell me it wasn't worth millions of dollars.
00:38:09I can't tell you that.
00:38:12Apologize to my wife, now.
00:38:14We were just joking.
00:38:16You know, fooling around.
00:38:18My wife was on the ground, soaking wet.
00:38:20Dressed torn.
00:38:21What you did was battery and harassment.
00:38:23My lawyer's not going to think that's funny.
00:38:25I sure as hell don't.
00:38:26Lawyers?
00:38:28Who the hell are you?
00:38:30That's Julian Barlow.
00:38:31He's one of the richest men in the world.
00:38:33Do you know how much this dress is worth?
00:38:36Every bead is a genuine, flawless diamond.
00:38:39Miss St. James, you just ruined a $10 million gown.
00:38:42Oh, shit.
00:38:45No.
00:38:46No.
00:38:47No.
00:38:48No, that can't be.
00:38:49You better start liquidating all your assets,
00:38:51including your parents' house,
00:38:53because the insurance company is coming for your ass.
00:38:55Then the police.
00:38:56Good luck finding a job in fashion
00:38:58after ruining one of the most famous dresses in the world.
00:39:03That's all your endorsements leaving you.
00:39:07That's all your endorsements leaving you.
00:39:09You did this.
00:39:11You set me up.
00:39:12You did it to yourself.
00:39:14Nolan, do something!
00:39:16I left the woman I love
00:39:18because you said we'd be rich,
00:39:19and now you have nothing.
00:39:21You piece of shit.
00:39:23Nope.
00:39:27Don't do this.
00:39:29Please don't do this.
00:39:30I'm not the one you need to beg for forgiveness.
00:39:38I'm sorry, Everly.
00:39:41I never should have tormented you all of those years.
00:39:45You didn't deserve it.
00:39:47Why did you do it?
00:39:49Why me?
00:39:52Why me?
00:39:53Because even with your shitty clothes,
00:39:56your terrible hair,
00:39:58you were still beautiful.
00:40:00Everyone could see it.
00:40:02I would kill to look like you,
00:40:04and you treated it like it was nothing!
00:40:06So you hated me because I was pretty
00:40:09and didn't shove it in people's faces?
00:40:11That is so messed up.
00:40:13Yeah.
00:40:14Well, I was right to hate you.
00:40:17Look at you.
00:40:18You bagged a billionaire without even trying.
00:40:21Everly is beautiful inside and out.
00:40:24That's what draws people to her.
00:40:26You're done here.
00:40:27I'm not going to push any criminal charges,
00:40:29but the insurance company will be reaching out.
00:40:31You're on the hook for that dress.
00:40:33Oh, my God.
00:40:34I never thought that I'd see this in a lifetime.
00:40:36Please pinch me and tell me that I'm not dreaming.
00:40:38If you are, so am I.
00:40:41You want to get out of here?
00:40:43Yes, please.
00:40:58Bitches.
00:40:59Who knew that high school reunions would be this fun?
00:41:07Thank you for what you did.
00:41:10Never has anyone come to my rescue before.
00:41:12I enjoy doing it.
00:41:14You matter to me, Everly.
00:41:18Me and Bella.
00:41:20Hey.
00:41:21Of course.
00:41:22I understand.
00:41:23Thank you again.
00:41:25Have a good night, Julian.
00:41:26Everly, wait.
00:41:28That came out wrong.
00:41:30What I meant was
00:41:32I have feelings for you.
00:41:35But I don't want to lead you on.
00:41:37Kendra's betrayal of our marriage,
00:41:39it broke something inside of me
00:41:41and I don't think I can commit to another woman.
00:41:46I just want to be with you.
00:41:48I'm not asking for anything else.
00:41:50You're so amazing, Julian,
00:41:52and I like everything about you.
00:41:54You just...
00:42:12Sir, is that you?
00:42:14I heard a noise.
00:42:18Yes, Mr. Gibson.
00:42:20You can go to bed.
00:42:21Yes, sir. Good night, sir.
00:42:23Ma'am.
00:42:24Fuck, that was embarrassing.
00:42:26I haven't got caught like that since I was a little schoolboy.
00:42:29Do you think he saw us?
00:42:31He probably did, but he's not going to say anything.
00:42:34I want nothing more than to take you upstairs right now.
00:42:38Me too.
00:42:39You're so honest, Everly.
00:42:41It's one of the many things I admire about you.
00:42:43And although it's going to kill me,
00:42:47I want you to go to bed.
00:42:49You're too noble.
00:42:52No one's ever said that to me before.
00:42:56Good night, sweetheart.
00:43:00Now go, before I change my mind.
00:43:06Did that just happen?
00:43:08Did that just happen?
00:43:10Am I actually dating Julian Barlow?
00:43:18This is nice,
00:43:20just holding your hand.
00:43:23What are we going to tell Bella?
00:43:25I don't want to get her hopes up,
00:43:26but we are dating now.
00:43:28It changes things.
00:43:30We have to put her first.
00:43:32Have you always thought of others at the expense of yourself?
00:43:35That's why I was bullied so much growing up.
00:43:38And why people take advantage of me.
00:43:40Don't say that.
00:43:41You're the best person I know, Everly.
00:43:43And now you have me.
00:43:45And I promise I won't let anyone hurt you anymore.
00:43:56So you think you can replace me with this whore, Julian?
00:43:59Let's see how that works out when I get through with the both of you.
00:44:06So, this is your latest slut.
00:44:10Kendra, are you following me?
00:44:11I'm Bella's mother.
00:44:13I need to know what her father is doing,
00:44:15and who is doing.
00:44:17So you fuck the help now, Julian?
00:44:19Who I'm with is none of your business.
00:44:21You gave that right up three years ago
00:44:23when you cheated on me with my best friend.
00:44:25Then you abandoned your daughter
00:44:26and went to Europe with some tennis pro at a club.
00:44:29That was ages ago.
00:44:31I've changed now.
00:44:33I'm ready to be a wife and a mother.
00:44:35And you can't let this homewrecker
00:44:37get in the way of what we can have.
00:44:39Everly is my wife now.
00:44:41And stay away from Bella.
00:44:42You don't have visitation rights.
00:44:46Oh, we'll see about that.
00:44:48I'm Bella's birth mother.
00:44:50That's never going to change.
00:44:53I can't lose my daughter, Everly.
00:44:55You won't.
00:44:56We'll fight it together.
00:45:04Hello, sir.
00:45:05What can I get for you today?
00:45:07I need to ask a favor of you.
00:45:09Sorry.
00:45:11No freebies for men with mean ex-wives?
00:45:13No ex-wife.
00:45:15Just one wife right in front of me.
00:45:19I'm still working.
00:45:21I'll have to kick you out if you're not a paying customer.
00:45:24Then I'll pay now.
00:45:34I guess just bought the entire store.
00:45:37I need help from my favorite cake baker.
00:45:39Bella's Elementary School is hosting a bake sale.
00:45:42And every family brings a homemade dessert.
00:45:45And they all compete for first place.
00:45:48Would you want to go with us?
00:45:51You want me to be a part of your family?
00:45:53In front of your neighbors?
00:45:55Of course.
00:46:04No, you have to stir in the same direction clockwise 30 times.
00:46:08Wow.
00:46:09I had no idea you had to be so accurate.
00:46:12You do if you want to be the best.
00:46:16No, not like that. Like this.
00:46:25You are the worst student.
00:46:27I'm sorry I can't concentrate.
00:46:29Because my teacher's so hot.
00:46:34Oh.
00:46:44Everly and Daddy sitting in a tree.
00:46:47K-I-S-S-I-N-G.
00:46:50I'm gonna get you.
00:46:53Come here.
00:47:04Come here.
00:47:11Hey, Bella.
00:47:12Remember me?
00:47:15No.
00:47:16I'm your mother.
00:47:17No, you're not.
00:47:18Everly's my mom.
00:47:19I chose her.
00:47:20You little brat.
00:47:21You can't choose your mother.
00:47:22You're born with one and that's what you get.
00:47:24That's enough, Kendra.
00:47:25You're upsetting Bella and causing a scene.
00:47:29Whatever.
00:47:30Move aside.
00:47:31I'm going to win this bake sale.
00:47:33And prove who the real mother is.
00:47:36Those are store-bought cookies.
00:47:38What is she thinking?
00:47:40No, she made those.
00:47:42Her family owns Rossi Cookies.
00:47:44They were franchised.
00:47:45They have stores in every country.
00:47:46You didn't tell me your ex was a world-renowned baker.
00:47:49She doesn't have a tenth of your talent.
00:47:52Her grandma's the baker.
00:47:53She uses the recipes.
00:47:55There's not one creative bone in her body.
00:48:01Oh, my God.
00:48:02That's amazing.
00:48:03I want to buy all of it.
00:48:05Who made this?
00:48:09Julian Barlow?
00:48:10I had no idea he was such a talented baker.
00:48:16Here.
00:48:17Try mine.
00:48:18Not to brag, but the Rossi name is renowned in the world of desserts.
00:48:23Not bad, but nowhere near the Barlow's.
00:48:25I'm telling you all to taste it.
00:48:27It's simply magic in your mouth.
00:48:29I think we know who the winner is.
00:48:34Yay!
00:48:38You want to see magic?
00:48:40I'm gonna make that bitch disappear.
00:48:43Abra-fucking-cadabra.
00:48:51Can't forget that.
00:48:52Top of Bella's grocery list.
00:48:54She would never forgive me.
00:48:55Well, aren't we the perfect little housewives?
00:48:59That is, until Bella is rushed to the hospital.
00:49:03Oops.
00:49:08Beverly!
00:49:09Hi!
00:49:10So lucky to run into you here.
00:49:12Oh.
00:49:13Oh, so.
00:49:15I owe you an apology for how rude I was to you earlier.
00:49:18In my defense, you'd have to be a mother to understand how it feels to see another woman raising a child.
00:49:24Do you have it in your heart to forgive me?
00:49:26It's Bella and Julian you owe an apology to, not me.
00:49:30Watch your back.
00:49:32There's a long line of women waiting to get their claws into Julian.
00:49:36Beautiful, sexy, sophisticated women.
00:49:40Who are suited to his lifestyle.
00:49:42He sees every want and desire.
00:49:45Is there some kind of threat?
00:49:48No.
00:49:50Just a cold, hard fact that you, Everly Harper, will never be more than a glorified babysitter to him.
00:49:58That's funny.
00:49:59Because you'll never be more than a bitter memory to him.
00:50:04Now stop messing with our family.
00:50:07Next time, I won't be so nice.
00:50:13Next time, you'll be the psycho who drugged Julian's daughter.
00:50:23Let me ask you a question.
00:50:25Why did you choose me?
00:50:27Oh, where's this coming from?
00:50:31I mean, once Bella grows up and doesn't need a mom anymore, will you still want to be with me?
00:50:38Everly, sweetheart, this doesn't sound like you.
00:50:41It's just, I'm not like the society women you've dated in the past.
00:50:46What if you get bored with me?
00:50:51Imagine dating someone.
00:50:54Who barely eats because they're watching their figure.
00:50:56And spends more time with their plastic surgeons than with their family.
00:51:01You mean these society women?
00:51:04You're so bad.
00:51:07I'm sorry.
00:51:08I let Kendra get in my head.
00:51:10When did you see Kendra?
00:51:15It's Bella's school.
00:51:17This is Julian Barlow.
00:51:20Emergency room.
00:51:22Uh-huh.
00:51:24I understand. I'm on my way.
00:51:26What's going on? Is Bella okay?
00:51:27The school nurse said that she was poisoned.
00:51:29Something she ate. Something about a lollipop.
00:51:40Bella is asleep.
00:51:41Fortunately, the lab results just showed that it was a common prescribed sedative that was on the lollipop.
00:51:47How does this happen? I don't understand.
00:51:49I have to ask.
00:51:50Have you had any threats recently or encountered any suspicious characters?
00:51:57It came as soon as I heard.
00:51:58How is our precious Bella?
00:52:00She's coming along.
00:52:01Okay.
00:52:02Poison?
00:52:03My God.
00:52:04What kind of monster would poison an innocent child?
00:52:07With a lollipop, no less.
00:52:10I'm sorry.
00:52:11Doctor, did you say lollipop?
00:52:13The perpetrator poisoned Julian and my daughter with a lollipop.
00:52:19Well, that's interesting.
00:52:21Because I ran into Everly at the bakery yesterday.
00:52:24And I saw one of Bella's favorite rainbow-colored lollipops.
00:52:28Are you suggesting that I had something to do with this?
00:52:32You gave Bella that lollipop, did you not?
00:52:41I did.
00:52:43I can't believe this.
00:52:44I can't believe this.
00:52:45Our precious Bella.
00:52:46Our little angel.
00:52:47Drugged by yet another baby.
00:52:49I did no such thing.
00:52:50I would never...
00:52:52Wait, hold on.
00:52:53Bella's been poisoned before?
00:52:54Is this true, Julian?
00:52:55When she was 18 months old, I had a babysitter.
00:52:58And I haven't been able to trust anyone since then.
00:53:01Just you.
00:53:03But now I...
00:53:05Now what?
00:53:06I'll tell you what.
00:53:08You're not coming near Bella ever again.
00:53:11No, no.
00:53:12This can't be real.
00:53:13You know I would never hurt Bella.
00:53:14You know I love her like she's my own daughter.
00:53:17Oh, but she's not.
00:53:19She's ours.
00:53:21Julian, will you be calling security or shall I?
00:53:27Julian, will you be calling security or shall I?
00:53:34Everly, I'm sorry.
00:53:36I'm sorry for ever doubting you.
00:53:37Even for a second.
00:53:38I know that you could never harm Bella.
00:53:40Not because you're my wife, but because you're a loving heart.
00:53:44Julian, what are you saying?
00:53:45She's dangerous.
00:53:46Stop, Kendra.
00:53:47Just stop.
00:53:49But...
00:53:51Look at the evidence.
00:53:52Everly bought the rainbow colored lollipop for Bella.
00:53:54Who else could have tampered with it?
00:53:58How did you know it was a rainbow lollipop?
00:54:01No one mentioned what color it was.
00:54:05No, you switched them.
00:54:07At the bakery parking lot.
00:54:08That's why you were there.
00:54:11You drugged your own daughter just to frame me?
00:54:13What kind of sicko does that?
00:54:15You can't prove that.
00:54:16But your prescription medicine can.
00:54:18Julian, stop.
00:54:19That's not mine.
00:54:21She's been taking Sative since I met her.
00:54:24That's exactly what was found in Bella's system.
00:54:26It's, it's, it's...
00:54:28You psychotic bitch!
00:54:30First you tried to kill my daughter, now you're trying to frame my wife?
00:54:33It's common.
00:54:34It could be found from anywhere.
00:54:36It could have been anyone.
00:54:38It could have been you.
00:54:40It was you, wasn't it?
00:54:41I'm telling you, it wasn't me!
00:54:46Bella's waking up.
00:54:52Thank God she's okay.
00:54:55The thought of losing her was too much to bear.
00:54:58We don't have to think about that.
00:54:59She has you.
00:55:02I have you.
00:55:04And we all have each other.
00:55:06Whatever comes our way,
00:55:08that's what family's for.
00:55:11That's what it means to love.
00:55:12And be loved.
00:55:14Exactly.
00:55:17Stop it, we're in the children's ward.
00:55:20I'm pretty sure all these doctors and nurses know how babies are born.
00:55:24Or made.
00:55:28Mommy?
00:55:30Daddy?
00:55:32Brain check?
00:55:33Oh, you can count on it.
00:55:36Is that my little munchkin in there making noise?
00:55:42Welcome in.
00:55:43What can I get started-
00:55:46No.
00:55:47What, is there a rule against selling a cake to your ex?
00:55:49Come on, Olivia.
00:55:51Look, Everly, I'm sorry.
00:55:53I made a big mistake, I'll admit that.
00:55:55But I've changed.
00:55:56I left Olivia, and I just want to start fresh.
00:55:59I want to do this again.
00:56:01Are you serious?
00:56:02Yes, it was all Olivia's doing.
00:56:03You know how manipulative she can be.
00:56:05And I only loved you the entire time.
00:56:09You think Julian- Julian's a multi-billionaire.
00:56:11You think he'd really go for someone like you?
00:56:12I mean, get real, Everly.
00:56:14If he doesn't love you,
00:56:16I do.
00:56:18We'd probably die without you.
00:56:24Get the hell out of my bakery.
00:56:26You're a fucking bitch.
00:56:29No one's gonna come to save you.
00:56:33Stay away from my wife.
00:56:35Last warning.
00:56:36Stay away from her or I'll break more than just your arm.
00:56:38Motherfucker.
00:56:40If I can't have her,
00:56:41no one can.
00:56:49Thank you for stepping in, Julian.
00:56:51I wish I could be here all the time, but I can't.
00:56:54Nolan.
00:56:56It's gonna be a problem.
00:56:57I can't exactly lock my doors.
00:56:59Don't work by yourself anymore.
00:57:01Make sure Samantha's with you.
00:57:08Something for the munchkins.
00:57:11Thanks.
00:57:13I have to pick her up right now.
00:57:16We'll see you later?
00:57:18Stay alert.
00:57:32And the hits keep coming.
00:57:35First my ex, now his.
00:57:38When will we ever catch a break?
00:57:49We have to keep that from Bella.
00:57:51I'll get my lawyer
00:57:52to file a restraining order against Kendra this week.
00:57:55Maybe there's a way we can make peace with Bella's mom.
00:57:58We've tried.
00:57:59She's turned every attempt against us.
00:58:01Including Bella.
00:58:04I can't risk losing my daughter.
00:58:09How can I help protect Bella?
00:58:11No, Everly, it's not your fight.
00:58:12Yes it is.
00:58:13Contract or not, you and I are in this together.
00:58:15I can't stand by while you and Bella suffer.
00:58:30What if Bella wakes up?
00:58:32She hung her head years ago.
00:58:34I just kept it.
00:58:36I know.
00:58:59I love you.
00:59:30What are your thoughts on a family date?
00:59:33The three of us.
00:59:35You want to go on a picnic?
00:59:38I'll go wherever you'll take me.
00:59:43So where did you get Bunga?
00:59:45When I was three years old.
00:59:47Yep, we were outside
00:59:48and she saw a rabbit run across the yard
00:59:50and she looked at me and reached her hands out
00:59:52and I said, no, you can't have a wild animal.
00:59:55So she started crying.
00:59:56So naturally I got her Bunga the next day.
00:59:58Naturally.
01:00:06Bella!
01:00:07My baby!
01:00:08Come to mom.
01:00:09What are you doing here?
01:00:10You look like a stalker.
01:00:12I'm still your mother.
01:00:14And I brought your favorite food.
01:00:16Strawberries.
01:00:18Everly loves me more than you.
01:00:19And I love her too.
01:00:21And I can't eat strawberries.
01:00:23Darling.
01:00:25That woman is just after daddy's money.
01:00:28You're lying.
01:00:29I hate you.
01:00:31You can't talk to me like that.
01:00:33I'm your mother.
01:00:34No, you're not.
01:00:35Everly is my mommy.
01:00:36You're scary.
01:00:38You little brat.
01:00:40Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:00:43Mommy, stop me!
01:00:46Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:00:49I'm not your mommy.
01:00:51Someone needs to teach you some manners.
01:00:54Mommy, daddy!
01:00:55Kendra, what the hell?
01:00:57I'm trying to protect my daughter from this fucking bitch.
01:01:00Hey, watch your language in front of Bella.
01:01:03Strawberries?
01:01:04Kendra, are you insane?
01:01:05Bella's deathly allergic.
01:01:07How was I supposed to know?
01:01:08You never let me see that bitch.
01:01:10That's a lie.
01:01:11You abandoned her.
01:01:12Shut up, you lying gold digger.
01:01:14I'm twice the mother that you'll ever be.
01:01:17Bella!
01:01:19Come back, sweetie.
01:01:20She's overwhelmed.
01:01:21You're scaring her.
01:01:23You know nothing about my daughter.
01:01:26But I know about you.
01:01:27You're just a foster kid.
01:01:29One step up from the gutter.
01:01:32Bella and I both know that Everly is the best thing to happen to this family.
01:01:37Bella, sweetie.
01:01:39You can't possibly think that this poor substitute is better than a real mother.
01:01:43We have the same blood.
01:01:45You're part Rossi.
01:01:47You can't ask your daughter that.
01:01:48Shut up!
01:01:50Kendra, this isn't some game that you can win.
01:01:52This is Bella and Julian's lives.
01:01:55I don't know why, but you abandoned them.
01:01:58You trying to snatch them back just so you can win won't make you happy.
01:02:01You have to move on.
01:02:04You have to move on.
01:02:08I know I don't deserve her.
01:02:10But I found out last month that I'm infertile.
01:02:15I can never have another baby.
01:02:17Bella's it for me.
01:02:30I know she's done some bad things.
01:02:33But she's still your mother, Bella.
01:02:35Why don't you go give her a hug?
01:02:39I don't really hate you.
01:02:42I know, baby.
01:02:45It's all my fault.
01:02:51You're right.
01:02:53I only wanted to win.
01:02:56You can win a game, but you can never win someone's heart.
01:03:00You're very wise.
01:03:02Don't get me wrong, I don't want to be your friend.
01:03:05I'm just trying to leave my daughter with a happy memory.
01:03:11Take care, Kendra.
01:03:12Maybe one day I'll let Bella write you.
01:03:14She's older.
01:03:18Bye, sweetie.
01:03:23She fell for my sob story.
01:03:25Stupid bitch.
01:03:27I won't stop until I get my man back.
01:03:29And the kid with him.
01:03:36Oh, what's all this for?
01:03:38100th Annual International Bake Off.
01:03:41Sounds like a big deal.
01:03:43It's invitation only.
01:03:45And I can't believe I got in.
01:03:47If I do well, it'll really help put the bakery on the map.
01:03:50Well, given how you rocked that bake sale,
01:03:53you've got this in the bag.
01:03:55That was nothing.
01:03:57I need a showstopper that's going to dazzle their taste buds
01:03:59and win over their hearts.
01:04:02Hmm.
01:04:04So what's the secret weapon?
01:04:05Vanilla rosemary five-layer cake
01:04:07topped with a lavender buttercream
01:04:09and a hint of orange zest.
01:04:11Sounds like I need to clear some space
01:04:13on the mantle for that first place trophy.
01:04:16Cut it out.
01:04:18I'm trying to concentrate.
01:04:20Oh.
01:04:22Am I distracting you?
01:04:24I'm a sucker for a messy apron.
01:04:27Okay, fine.
01:04:29You can stay, but you have to make yourself useful.
01:04:32What's first, chef?
01:04:34Ladies and gentlemen,
01:04:36welcome to our 100th annual international bake-off.
01:04:39Please find your seat.
01:04:41Our competition will start shortly.
01:04:50You got this, girl.
01:04:52We'll be on the front row cheering you on, okay?
01:04:54Thank you, Sammy.
01:04:56I'm going to go check my presentation one more time.
01:05:00Knock them dead out there, sweetie.
01:05:02Knock them dead out there, sweetheart.
01:05:07Good luck.
01:05:14There you are,
01:05:16falling nicely into my trap.
01:05:18Who do you think arranged the invite,
01:05:20you pathetic nobody?
01:05:22Hey, Everly.
01:05:24Ready to get crushed.
01:05:26Andrea, what are you doing here?
01:05:28Are you stalking me?
01:05:30You look scared.
01:05:32You should be.
01:05:34I'm going to win that trophy
01:05:36and prove who's the better baker and mother.
01:05:39I'm infertile.
01:05:41I can never have another baby.
01:05:43So everything you said at the end
01:05:45is true?
01:05:47Yes.
01:05:48I can never have another baby.
01:05:50So everything you said at the park was a lie?
01:05:52You're not infertile.
01:05:54You just can't stand that Bella chose me.
01:05:56I'm her fucking mother, bitch.
01:05:58You're a monster.
01:06:00And you're just an amateur
01:06:02who doesn't deserve to be here.
01:06:04Did you really think you earned a place
01:06:06in this competition?
01:06:08I'm the one who got the judges to invite you
01:06:10and now Julian's going to see
01:06:12what a poor orphan loser you truly are.
01:06:15Bring it on, Rossi.
01:06:16My recipe is heart and soul
01:06:18and they will beat your assembly line crap
01:06:20any day.
01:06:23Oh, yeah?
01:06:25Do you know what goes great with cake?
01:06:27What?
01:06:29Coffee.
01:06:39Kendra, what the hell?
01:06:41You better go get cleaned up.
01:06:43I wouldn't want to meet the judges
01:06:44looking like that.
01:06:46So unsanitary.
01:07:03Your knight in shining armor
01:07:05can't save your ass this time.
01:07:07Neverly.
01:07:09Our next competitor,
01:07:11Kendra Rossi.
01:07:15Hi, judge.
01:07:17This is my own
01:07:19one-of-a-kind original recipe.
01:07:23A vanilla rosemary
01:07:26five-layer cake with lavender buttercream
01:07:28and a hint of orange zest.
01:07:30That's my cake!
01:07:35What are you talking about?
01:07:37You stole my recipe.
01:07:39A nobody accusing me,
01:07:41a Rossi, of cheating?
01:07:42How dare you?
01:07:44Man,
01:07:46you have impeccable taste in women
01:07:48because obviously you chose Everly,
01:07:50but that woman up there?
01:07:52How did you end up with such a nightmare ex?
01:07:54I was young
01:07:56and stupid.
01:07:58Yeah, obviously.
01:08:00So what are we going to do to salvage this?
01:08:02Can't you just pull some strings or something?
01:08:04You're Julie and freaking Barlow, for goodness sake.
01:08:06It's not that simple.
01:08:08I know Everly wouldn't want to win that way.
01:08:10Dammit.
01:08:12What do we do now?
01:08:15Kendra can't get away with this.
01:08:19A nobody accusing me,
01:08:21a Rossi, of cheating?
01:08:24How dare you?
01:08:29You better go get cleaned up.
01:08:31Wouldn't want to meet the judges looking like that.
01:08:33So that's why you spilled coffee on me.
01:08:36So you could hack my laptop behind my back
01:08:39the same way you switched the lollipops behind my back
01:08:40when you poisoned Bella.
01:08:42That is a serious accusation.
01:08:45Now, can you prove that this cake is your creation?
01:08:49Here's your proof.
01:08:57We can't see anything.
01:08:59The screen is blank.
01:09:03We can't see anything.
01:09:05The screen is blank.
01:09:07What happened to my files?
01:09:08What happened to my files?
01:09:10They're not there.
01:09:12As I said, this recipe is mine and mine alone.
01:09:14No, no, no, no.
01:09:16It's not true.
01:09:18Kendra Rossi, you're a thief.
01:09:20I think we've heard enough.
01:09:22Sir, I know this recipe, my recipe by heart.
01:09:24I can recite it from memory.
01:09:26I'm afraid that doesn't prove anything.
01:09:28Now, I think it's best that you leave the stage now
01:09:32before I have to disqualify you.
01:09:35Isn't that the baker from Sweet Escape Bakery?
01:09:38Not going to her shop, ever.
01:09:45Wait!
01:09:48Wait!
01:09:51This will prove the recipe is Everly's.
01:09:59Now, you're going to want to let it cool for about 10 minutes.
01:10:02Hey, back on me.
01:10:04This is the important part.
01:10:06The last step is to lightly dust with a layer of orange zest.
01:10:09Just enough to reach the edges.
01:10:16And then you're going to want to add a pinch of salt.
01:10:20And voila!
01:10:23You'll see the time stamp of this raw footage
01:10:26was taken two weeks ago.
01:10:28And speaking from experience,
01:10:29no one can make this cake exactly like my wife.
01:10:40Something's different.
01:10:42Taste for yourself.
01:10:49Salt.
01:10:51It's missing the salt.
01:10:53I didn't include it in my recipe notes.
01:10:55It was a last-minute spur-of-the-moment addition.
01:10:57Totally spontaneous.
01:10:59It made all the difference in the world.
01:11:01Salt?
01:11:04Salt?
01:11:22Salt or not, this is no ordinary cake.
01:11:25And it could only come from the heart and soul
01:11:28of an extraordinary baker.
01:11:36You almost ruined my wife today.
01:11:38This is your last straw.
01:11:40Confess or I'm calling the police.
01:11:42But I didn't.
01:11:44Okay, okay.
01:11:47I did it.
01:11:49I did it.
01:11:51All of it.
01:11:52Are you happy now?
01:11:54Dragging me in the mud like this
01:11:56in front of everyone?
01:11:58Julian, you broke my heart.
01:12:00You have to have a heart for it to be broken.
01:12:02How can you say that?
01:12:04I loved you more than anything.
01:12:07And then this bitch gets into the picture
01:12:09and suddenly I'm nothing?
01:12:11Just some garbage you can throw away?
01:12:13What is so special about her, Julian?
01:12:16She's not prettier than me.
01:12:18She can't be better in bed than me.
01:12:20What do you possibly think?
01:12:22What do you see in her that you don't see in me?
01:12:25Maybe I'm just a better baker than you, Kendra.
01:12:29Here.
01:12:31Have a taste.
01:12:33I don't want your stupid salt.
01:12:38It smells disgusting.
01:12:40It smells like a rotten potato chip
01:12:43and Bella could have made a better cake than that.
01:12:48I...
01:12:50I don't even know what to say
01:12:52to make you happier.
01:12:54Say I can present my cake.
01:12:56That's all I came here to do, sir.
01:12:58Fair enough.
01:13:00The ingredients in my cake are pretty traditional
01:13:02in terms of regular cake ingredients.
01:13:04I like the rosemary because it tends to cut through
01:13:06the sweetness of traditional cakes
01:13:08while also balancing the orange zest,
01:13:10aromatic flavoring that we really look for
01:13:12in a well-balanced cake.
01:13:14I also, um, not listed,
01:13:16I add a little bit of salt on top
01:13:18just to balance everything out
01:13:20and I hope you really like it.
01:13:28We have seen a lot of great bakes this year,
01:13:31but nothing in the history of this competition
01:13:34has ever compared to this year's
01:13:37first prize winner,
01:13:39Everly Harper.
01:13:42This year's first prize winner,
01:13:44Everly Harper.
01:13:48Congratulations, Miss Hartman.
01:13:50Truly well-deserved.
01:13:52Would you excuse me?
01:13:58Oh, we did it, Samantha, we did it.
01:14:00No, Everly, you did this.
01:14:02Hold on.
01:14:06Listen to this.
01:14:08Orders are flooding in like crazy.
01:14:10No, no, no, no, no.
01:14:12I've got this. Trust me.
01:14:14Now get out of here.
01:14:16Go celebrate with your hubby.
01:14:18Yeah?
01:14:20I am so proud of you, Everly.
01:14:32I got lost.
01:14:34I'm more likely to stick a bitch
01:14:36than suck a dick right now.
01:14:38Good.
01:14:40Then we both want the same thing.
01:14:42Yeah?
01:14:44What's that?
01:14:46Revenge.
01:14:48I've spent the last two weeks
01:14:50learning everything I can
01:14:52about you.
01:14:54Who the fuck are you?
01:14:56I'm someone that hates Julian,
01:14:58and I heard you're someone
01:15:00that hates Everly.
01:15:02So I have a plan that'll get us
01:15:04both what we want.
01:15:06I'm listening.
01:15:15Am I doing it right?
01:15:17Those look great.
01:15:19Just squeeze your bag
01:15:21Okay.
01:15:23Time to switch to croissants.
01:15:25The chocolate filled kind?
01:15:27All different kinds.
01:15:29Can you go in the freezer in the back
01:15:31and get me two blocks of butter?
01:15:33They are left side, middle shelf.
01:15:35Left side, middle shelf, two blocks.
01:15:37Got it.
01:15:51You're coming with me, Bella.
01:15:53I'm your mother,
01:15:55not that whore.
01:15:57Everly!
01:15:59Save your breath, kid.
01:16:01She can't hear you anyway.
01:16:03Everly! Everly!
01:16:05Shut up!
01:16:09Go!
01:16:21Bella?
01:16:23Bella?
01:16:25Bella!
01:16:35Everly!
01:16:37Back here!
01:16:39Bella!
01:16:41Bella!
01:16:43Bella!
01:16:45Bella!
01:16:47Bella!
01:16:48Back here!
01:16:53Tits.
01:16:55Shh.
01:17:06This is Julian Barlow.
01:17:08I have your daughter.
01:17:10And if I don't get 200 million
01:17:12in cash by sundown,
01:17:14she won't see the sunrise.
01:17:16What did you do with Bella?
01:17:18Split into two separate duffel bags.
01:17:20Let me talk to Bella.
01:17:22I need to know she's safe.
01:17:24Only after I get the money.
01:17:26Damn you!
01:17:28She's just a little girl.
01:17:30There's an abandoned campsite
01:17:32at the end of Canyon Ridge Road.
01:17:34Put the cash inside the office cabin
01:17:36and come alone,
01:17:38because I'll be watching.
01:17:40When do I get Bella?
01:17:44What are we going to do?
01:17:46I'll call my bank
01:17:48and I'll get the money within an hour.
01:17:53Hello?
01:17:55Anybody?
01:17:57Hello?
01:17:59What is she doing here?
01:18:01I need an explanation for this.
01:18:03Mother, now is not the time for this.
01:18:05I had to learn from Kendra
01:18:07that you're not married at all,
01:18:09that you fake everything.
01:18:11What is this? This is from my safe.
01:18:13Combination was Bella's birthday.
01:18:15Very sloppy of you, Julian.
01:18:16To present this fraud
01:18:18as if she were actually your wife.
01:18:20I knew she was a gold digger,
01:18:22but I didn't know she was a tramp for hire.
01:18:24Silence!
01:18:26This is not important right now.
01:18:28That is just a piece of paper, Mother.
01:18:30I have to find Bella.
01:18:32She's been kidnapped.
01:18:34My grandbaby has been kidnapped?
01:18:36What happened?
01:18:38Bella and I were baking
01:18:40and someone grabbed me.
01:18:42I blacked out and when I woke up,
01:18:44she was gone.
01:18:46We're all together now,
01:18:48so if you two could please just...
01:18:50Just what?
01:18:52Stand aside and let you handle it?
01:18:54You brought this tramp into my daughter's home
01:18:56and because of her,
01:18:58Bella's life is at stake.
01:19:00Ew.
01:19:02It smells.
01:19:04You just let common street trash walk in here?
01:19:06Don't talk about him like that.
01:19:08Bernie is a veteran.
01:19:10He served our country.
01:19:12I'm sorry, Bernie.
01:19:14I don't have the day off for you today.
01:19:16And a tall man.
01:19:21Go back and crawl into whatever hole you came out of,
01:19:24you filthy animal.
01:19:26I saw them.
01:19:30They took that little girl.
01:19:32Fucking bitch!
01:19:34What did you do?
01:19:36Where's Bella?
01:19:38He's obviously deranged or on drugs or both.
01:19:40A tall man.
01:19:42Did he have short, blonde hair?
01:19:44Athletic build?
01:19:47Nolan.
01:19:49She's working with Nolan.
01:19:51Where is she?
01:19:53Where is Bella?
01:19:55Tell me now!
01:19:57I...
01:20:01What the hell?
01:20:03Where's my daughter?
01:20:10Where is she?
01:20:16Where is she?
01:20:26Daddy?
01:20:32My little escape artist.
01:20:35You can come out now, Munchkin.
01:20:37It's safe.
01:20:39Daddy and Evelyn are here.
01:20:44Hey.
01:20:46Hey.
01:20:51This is ridiculous!
01:20:53It's not kidnapping if it's your own child!
01:20:57This is ridiculous!
01:20:59It's not kidnapping if it's your own child!
01:21:03It's over.
01:21:05It's finally over.
01:21:07Isn't me and Mommy gone for good, Daddy?
01:21:10She'll never bother you again, Munchkin.
01:21:12I want you both to know that
01:21:13I'm very ashamed for my part in Kendra's scheme.
01:21:16But you can't continue this fake marriage.
01:21:19You're right, Mother.
01:21:24Beverly Harper.
01:21:26You're the most loving, brave and talented woman I've ever known.
01:21:30Your beauty is just dessert after a rich meal.
01:21:33My life feels full with you in it.
01:21:36Will you do me the honor of marrying me?
01:21:39And me!
01:21:40And me!
01:21:47Julian Barlow.
01:21:49If I was to create a recipe for the bravest, smartest, most loving man,
01:21:54it would be you.
01:21:57Your wealth is not a dessert, but a mere appetizer.
01:22:01So, yes, I will marry you.
01:22:04And me, too.
01:22:06I don't know what all that nonsense about food was,
01:22:09but the rest was lovely.
01:22:12I guess I'll give the girl a chance
01:22:14if she can make my son and grandbaby smile like that.
01:22:36So pretty.
01:22:42I helped make that.
01:22:44Yes, you did, Bella.
01:22:46Have you guys ever seen such a beautiful family?
01:22:49I'm so happy for you.
01:22:51Thanks, Bestie.
01:22:54Mommy, how about a cake fight?
01:22:58You're a girl after my own heart, Bella.
01:23:00Everybody, cake fight!
01:23:06Woo!
01:23:08Woo!
01:23:11Woo!
01:23:13Woo!
01:23:15Woo!
01:23:17Woo!
01:23:19Woo!
01:23:21Woo!
01:23:35Woo!
01:23:40Couldn't you have gotten me something more practical?
01:23:43This is going to be a bear to bake with.
01:23:45Only my wife would complain about a 15-carat flawless diamond being too big.
01:23:50Sorry.
01:23:52I'm not.
01:23:55God, I love you.
01:23:59Hey, Mr. Barlow.
01:24:02Hey, Miss Barlow.
01:24:03Who said I was changing my name?
01:24:09On the topic of change,
01:24:11I've been thinking.
01:24:13Bella needs a playmate.
01:24:15What do you think we give her a sibling?
01:24:18Just one.
01:24:20Foster kid here. I always dreamed of having a big family.
01:24:23Well, how big are we talking?
01:24:33One.
