Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Hey, this is Richard Allenton, I can't answer the phone right now, so please leave a message.
00:00:15Hey Grandpa, it's one thing to set me up on a bunch of blind dates with these goody-two-shoe
00:00:21women, but to trick me into thinking I'm coming to a business meeting that's actually a blind
00:00:27date, that's low. Let's hope this one's different. I don't even know what to say to this guy.
00:00:37I don't know how to talk to rich people. Be sexy? Darling, just act better than everyone
00:00:45else in the room. And being sexy is easy. Bite your lip, push up the girls. It works
00:00:52every time. Wait, what about girls? And don't forget, these rich men get bored easily,
00:00:58so challenge them, be bold, and put them on the spot. I don't think I can do this. The
00:01:04sooner you steal the code for Ellington's new AI tech, the sooner I pay you for your
00:01:09mother's surgery. It's your call.
00:01:40Are you going to stare at me all night, or be a gentleman and get my seat, big boy?
00:01:45Of course.
00:01:53Sorry, I've been set up with many girls before, but none like you. You're so...
00:02:00Rich? Sexy?
00:02:04Frankly, yes. Sorry, what was your name?
00:02:10Valentina Kingsley. And you are?
00:02:13Blaine Ellington, CEO of Ellington Incorporated.
00:02:18And this is a successful company? It's not ringing any bells.
00:02:24Waiter?
00:02:25Yes, Mr. Ellington.
00:02:26You still have the Chateau Petrus on the shelf, yes?
00:02:30Yes, of course.
00:02:31If so, we'll have two bottles.
00:02:34It's $60,000 per bottle, sir. You want two?
00:02:39Actually, I'm pretty thirsty. Better bring three.
00:02:44Yes, of course. Right away, sir.
00:02:51And what do you do, Valentina Kingsley?
00:02:54I invest.
00:02:56In what?
00:02:57In everything. What am I not investing in? Businesses? Charities?
00:03:07I see. And you live in the city?
00:03:11The city. The hills. My yacht. My private island. I'm everywhere, darling.
00:03:23You're so impressive. So unlike the other girls I've seen.
00:03:30Doesn't surprise me. I'm one of a kind, darling.
00:03:38You've got a little...
00:03:52Kurt?
00:03:53Kurt? What's my manager doing here?
00:03:57Blaine!
00:04:00My business dinner just ended. The presentation for the China branch.
00:04:03Looking good. Amazing. You're the best, Kurt.
00:04:05Well, I just won't keep you two. Just wanted to say hi.
00:04:10Rose petals for a business dinner?
00:04:11Ended up being a blind date.
00:04:13Classic.
00:04:15Alright, well, you two have fun.
00:04:18Okay.
00:04:23I've got to be honest with you.
00:04:27You're so unlike any of the girls I've been with. Would you like to come to my place?
00:04:33I can take this chance to get closer to the AI code.
00:04:35Absolutely, darling.
00:04:43Whoa.
00:04:46Welcome to my home.
00:04:48After you.
00:05:04Oh, my.
00:05:16You like what you see?
00:05:18You're getting there, darling.
00:05:20Nothing like the Calvin Klein model I dated, but...
00:05:24Well then, shall we get started?
00:05:29Not so fast.
00:05:32Okay, a little foreplay?
00:05:35I did not think this through at all.
00:05:37How am I supposed to find the drive when he's trying to suck my face off?
00:05:44Looking for something?
00:05:47Oh, um...
00:05:50Ah.
00:05:52I should have known that was your style.
00:05:55Oh, yes, darling.
00:05:58Ugh, I can't believe people are actually into this.
00:06:01I'm not used to being the one tied up. It's usually the other way around.
00:06:09Valentina?
00:06:11Patience, darling. I'm building the suspense.
00:06:15Ah, I see.
00:06:17Where could it be?
00:06:19Right. And you say guys actually like this?
00:06:23Oh, yes. It's very popular with the manly men in France.
00:06:31How long does it take for something to actually happen?
00:06:37That's... that's new.
00:06:39The painting! Maybe there's a safe behind there.
00:06:42Oh, uh, sorry, this painting caught my eye.
00:06:46It looks exactly like the one in my mansion in Sweden.
00:06:52It's where I keep my safe.
00:06:54Huh. People actually still hide things behind paintings?
00:06:58Thought that was only in the movies.
00:07:00Oh, no, it's quite popular.
00:07:03Where do you hide your luxurious safe-keeping?
00:07:06Where do you hide your luxurious safe-keepings?
00:07:11In a super, super, super secret hiding place.
00:07:14Ugh, come on.
00:07:18Now, why don't you come over here and get this thing started?
00:07:22Oh, uh, most unfortunate, I'm getting the utmost important business call, and I must take it.
00:07:29Right now? What? What about me?
00:07:33Valentina!
00:07:37Wait! Untie me!
00:07:44Ew. Really, Blaine?
00:07:47What?
00:07:48You and your models.
00:07:52Last night was not a model. I was actually impressed.
00:07:57Did I hear right? Blaine actually had a date he liked?
00:08:01It was fantastic.
00:08:03The other girls, they're so boring.
00:08:05But this one, she's a mystery I can't quite crack.
00:08:09I must see her again.
00:08:11Blaine, these dates aren't about you having sexy adventures.
00:08:15It's about you finding a wife you can settle down with and running the company.
00:08:22Grandfather, listen to him.
00:08:25He's not ready to be the face of Ellington.
00:08:27I am much more qualified.
00:08:29You know, I'm done having this conversation with you, dear.
00:08:34No, no, no, no.
00:08:36Look, you do great work right where you are.
00:08:39Right? You weren't meant to be some CEO.
00:08:43No, but Blaine, Blaine will learn in time.
00:08:47Whatever.
00:08:49Have fun with your little girlfriend, Blaine.
00:08:52I have actual work to attend to.
00:08:54Oh.
00:08:57Yeah, yeah, thanks.
00:09:05Hello?
00:09:06How's our plan going, darling?
00:09:10To perfection.
00:09:13Charity has Blaine wrapped around her finger.
00:09:15It won't be long until he flips up and I can step in and take my throne as Ellington's CEO.
00:09:22Brilliant. It's all coming together perfectly.
00:09:26And the VR tech you're developing, it'll be ready in time when I trade the AI code, right?
00:09:30Oh, yes. It'll be ready.
00:09:32Soon we'll be queens of the tech world.
00:09:48What's he doing here?
00:09:49Speaking of girls, I think I know who would be perfect as your new assistant.
00:09:54Sorry.
00:09:55I'm fine.
00:09:58Ariel.
00:09:59How does he know my name?
00:10:01You dropped your badge.
00:10:09There you go.
00:10:11Thanks.
00:10:19Amazing.
00:10:22Are you playing hide and seek?
00:10:23Is that where you were laying?
00:10:24Can I hide next?
00:10:25No, I was dropping my mom off at the hospital.
00:10:28Oh, that was unexpectedly personal.
00:10:30Wait, oh my god, is she okay?
00:10:32Should I bring her a fruit basket?
00:10:33She's just getting some tests done.
00:10:35Oh, thank goodness.
00:10:37Hey, by the way, did you hear?
00:10:39Our new CEO is looking for a personal assistant.
00:10:42Are you going to apply?
00:10:43I'm good where I am.
00:10:44Not all the girls are applying.
00:10:45Everyone wants to get close to our boss.
00:10:47You're the best employee in our department, Ariel.
00:10:49I think this position is yours.
00:11:00He's gorgeous.
00:11:02I wouldn't mind looking at that hunk of man all day.
00:11:06Attention, everyone.
00:11:08My name is Blaine, and I'm the new CEO.
00:11:12I will try my best to live up to my father,
00:11:15but I ask for patience as I adjust to the new role.
00:11:19And since he is adjusting to this new role,
00:11:21I've decided to assign him a new assistant.
00:11:25Not me, not me, not me.
00:11:27Blaine, meet your new assistant, Ariel.
00:11:35All right, everyone, back to work.
00:11:45You look exactly like...
00:11:48Oh, my God, my cover's blown.
00:11:54Kurt described.
00:11:56Clean, organized desk.
00:11:59Confident composure.
00:12:01There'd be a pay raise, of course.
00:12:04This could get me closer to finding the code.
00:12:07When do I start?
00:12:09Perfect.
00:12:10First thing I need help with is this file.
00:12:13Oh, got to take a phone call.
00:12:16Send it to me in an email.
00:12:20Ariel, he wants to meet you again.
00:12:23Really?
00:12:25Also, I got you a second number.
00:12:27Just click the link to connect it,
00:12:28so from now on, you're the one he'll be calling.
00:12:32Great.
00:12:39New number, huh?
00:12:43Hello?
00:12:44Hello, Ariel?
00:12:45This is Dr. Westphal.
00:12:46We just got your mother's results.
00:12:53It's not what we hoped.
00:12:54So we need to move quickly
00:12:55if we want that experimental procedure to be a success.
00:12:59Okay, I understand.
00:13:01I'll come up with the money for it soon.
00:13:14Oh, perfect timing.
00:13:16I just finished dinner.
00:13:18Mom, you should be in bed.
00:13:20Honey, I'm fine.
00:13:22Besides, you've been working all day.
00:13:23You shouldn't have to cook for yourself.
00:13:25Mom, please.
00:13:26Honey, sit down.
00:13:38The doctor called.
00:13:40He says it's gotten worse.
00:13:41Hush, hush, hush.
00:13:42Hush.
00:13:43None of that talk, okay?
00:13:45Mom.
00:13:47Eat before your food gets cold.
00:13:56I'll be right back.
00:14:04It's time for the second date, darling.
00:14:07Are you ready?
00:14:09Yeah.
00:14:12Mom, I have to leave for work.
00:14:15I'll make it to go.
00:14:32Oh, where am I?
00:14:38Valentina!
00:14:39Blaine!
00:14:42Darling, what is this dreadful place?
00:14:44Do you intend to have me killed?
00:14:46No, not at all.
00:14:48This place is special.
00:14:50Follow me.
00:15:03How many more?
00:15:04We're almost there.
00:15:05Come on.
00:15:10Come on.
00:15:21Wow.
00:15:31Would you look at that view?
00:15:35I bet you bring all your models up here.
00:15:37Just you, actually.
00:15:39I discovered this place after my father died.
00:15:43Your father died?
00:15:45Yeah.
00:15:46And I've been thrown into the CEO position, and, uh, I'm a bit in over my head.
00:15:53So, I never really get a chance to myself, except when I come here.
00:16:00I'm so sorry.
00:16:07My mom is sick.
00:16:10She needs experimental surgery.
00:16:17That's how it feels to want to get away.
00:16:21Yeah.
00:16:24I'm used to getting everything, but this is one thing that money can't buy.
00:16:31I'm so sorry about your mom.
00:16:33Thanks.
00:16:36She's all I've got.
00:16:39I don't want to say goodbye to her.
00:16:50Hey, who's out here?
00:16:56What's happening?
00:16:58Technically, we're not supposed to be up here.
00:17:00What?
00:17:01Run.
00:17:09Hey!
00:17:12Still.
00:17:18What was that?
00:17:19That was fun.
00:17:21Did Calvin Klein take you on any dates that adventurous?
00:17:24No, I suppose not.
00:17:28I haven't felt this way in a really long time.
00:17:32I feel like I can be myself around you.
00:17:36I feel the same way.
00:17:39Will you be my girlfriend, Valentina?
00:17:41That's right. I'm supposed to be Valentina. I can't do this to him.
00:17:48But I need to pay for my mom's surgery.
00:17:53I'd love to.
00:17:58Well, well, well.
00:18:01Martina, what are you doing here?
00:18:03I heard you were actually acting like a big boy CEO.
00:18:07Had to see it for myself.
00:18:10Well, that blind date went so well the other night, it got me thinking maybe Grandfather was right.
00:18:15Is that so?
00:18:17Blaine's got himself a little girlfriend?
00:18:20That's right.
00:18:21Wow. What's she like?
00:18:23She's funny, mysterious, confident, hardworking, charitable.
00:18:29She's the whole package.
00:18:30Sounds like one that Dad actually would have approved of. I'd love to meet her.
00:18:36Oh, sorry, Mr. Ellington. Is this a bad time?
00:18:39No, not at all. My sister just came to visit. Martina, this is my new assistant, Ariel.
00:18:45Martina, nice to meet you.
00:18:47Likewise. Glad to see my brother as someone to make sure this launch goes smoothly.
00:18:52Don't you worry. I got this.
00:18:54Don't you worry. I got this.
00:18:56Well, after you lost the keys to the Maserati, I'm not so sure that you won't lose this new AI tech that we need.
00:19:01I didn't lose the keys to the Maserati, and don't you worry. I've got the codes right here on this drive, and I'm keeping it safe.
00:19:10Glad to hear you're doing that. I have wasted enough time.
00:19:15Now you know exactly where it is. Get it.
00:19:40Alright, where's that drive?
00:19:48Are you kidding? There's nothing in here.
00:20:03They're coming in. Crap!
00:20:06How about we celebrate your China contract with a nice glass of whiskey?
00:20:09Oh, man.
00:20:10You don't twist my arm. You don't twist my arm.
00:20:14No, no, no.
00:20:21Oh, yeah.
00:20:26Sarah, cheers.
00:20:27Don't you guys have that meeting with China right now?
00:20:30Right.
00:20:31Right.
00:20:32Right.
00:20:33After then.
00:20:34Yeah.
00:20:42Phew. That was close.
00:20:49Hey, girlfriend. Can I ask your advice on something?
00:20:52Sure. What's going on?
00:20:54So, I have this friend who is having boy problems.
00:20:57Aren't we all?
00:20:58So, she has a crush on her boss, and she doesn't know what to do about it because of the whole workplace relationship thing.
00:21:04How did she find out I like Blaine?
00:21:06Wait, I don't like Blaine.
00:21:08But he deserves to know, though, right?
00:21:10You're gonna tell him?
00:21:11I mean, I don't know, because what if I tell Kurt I like him, and he doesn't like me, and then it's so totally awkward, and so he fires me because it's so totally awkward.
00:21:19Wait, you like Kurt?
00:21:22I gotta go. When? Ring, ring.
00:21:25Go when? Ring, ring. Oh, I'm getting a call.
00:21:30Ring, ring. Ring, ring. Ring, ring.
00:21:36Ariel.
00:21:37Yes, Mr. Allington?
00:21:39I need your personal help.
00:21:41Well, I am your personal assistant.
00:21:44I've never gotten a girl a gift.
00:21:46Wow, really?
00:21:48Um, I mean, yeah. First girlfriend, first gift. Checks out.
00:21:54So, I need your help to figure out which you think a woman would prefer.
00:21:58Oh, my God. I'm gonna be wearing that?
00:22:00Sorry?
00:22:02Uh, your girlfriend's gonna be wearing that?
00:22:04Yeah. It's pretty nice.
00:22:07I don't know how you're gonna go about it then, but I'll try.
00:22:10Thanks.
00:22:11Thank you, Ariel.
00:22:12You're welcome.
00:22:13Uh, well, bye, I guess.
00:22:15Bye.
00:22:16I'll see you later.
00:22:17Bye.
00:22:18Bye, Ariel.
00:22:19Bye.
00:22:20Bye.
00:22:22Sorry?
00:22:23Uh, your girlfriend's gonna be wearing that?
00:22:26Yeah.
00:22:27It's pretty nice, right?
00:22:29Well, I mean, it's option one.
00:22:32You think she'll like it?
00:22:34Um, well, what's your girlfriend like?
00:22:38What are her...tastes?
00:22:41Um, sophisticated, generous, gorgeous.
00:22:46The whole world slows down whenever she walks into a room.
00:22:52I see.
00:22:54So, keep that in mind.
00:22:56Option two...
00:23:02And that's even more revealing than the first one.
00:23:04Yeah.
00:23:05This is bacon Europe.
00:23:07Between you and me, I'm rooting for this guy.
00:23:09Mm-hmm.
00:23:10I see.
00:23:11Do you have anything more...modest?
00:23:16Hm. Modest?
00:23:18Yeah, that seems to be the style I've been seeing these days.
00:23:23With the rich folk, at least.
00:23:26You know, now that you say it, I think I do have something.
00:23:35Aha!
00:23:38What do you think?
00:23:40I think she'd really like that.
00:23:48Can I have a margarita?
00:23:51You can't be serious, darling.
00:23:54She'll have a French 75 with cognac.
00:23:57Flora, what are you doing here?
00:23:59Making sure you look the part.
00:24:01You want to make the money for your dear mother, don't you?
00:24:04Yes, more than anything.
00:24:06Then you need to keep your eyes on the prize.
00:24:09We need to get our hands on that code fast.
00:24:12Once I do, I can fund your mother's surgery.
00:24:14But until then, we're in this together.
00:24:17Yes?
00:24:19Yeah.
00:24:20Excellent.
00:24:22Now, what's your game plan?
00:24:24Make him even more vulnerable, and get him to tell me where the code is.
00:24:29And how do you suppose you'll do that?
00:24:31Um...
00:24:34Be nice?
00:24:39Your ignorance is both cute and annoying.
00:24:42No.
00:24:44A man like Blaine Ellington is going to become vulnerable from two things.
00:24:49Drinking with him, and going to bed with him.
00:24:54Right.
00:24:56I can do that.
00:24:58I hope so, because he's coming this way.
00:25:03Get the code soon, honey.
00:25:06For your mother.
00:25:08Okay.
00:25:11Oh!
00:25:12And darling, have fun.
00:25:19Valentina.
00:25:22How are you?
00:25:24Wonderful, love.
00:25:26I've been looking forward to this all day.
00:25:28Is that so?
00:25:29Indeed.
00:25:31I was so distracted.
00:25:33It affected my croquet score.
00:25:35Oh, no. Distracted over little old me?
00:25:37Yes.
00:25:39I simply must know everything about you.
00:25:42Well, what would you like to know?
00:25:45Everything.
00:25:47Well, I don't know about everything.
00:25:49It might take some time for me to open up.
00:25:51Well, maybe after a few drinks?
00:25:55Only if you can keep up.
00:25:57You see, I don't really start talking until after a lot of drinking.
00:26:01Oh, no. Well, here goes nothing.
00:26:09Oh.
00:26:11Oh.
00:26:13That's really good.
00:26:15Stop.
00:26:17That's funny.
00:26:19Stop.
00:26:24You know, my sister was implying today
00:26:27that I should tell someone where my new AI code is
00:26:30because I forget stuff, and...
00:26:34Are you forgetful?
00:26:37I mean, yeah.
00:26:39Can you actually believe I lost the keys to a Maserati?
00:26:43What? Really?
00:26:44Yeah.
00:26:46It cost me $10,000 just to get them rekeyed.
00:26:50Which is why I should probably tell someone
00:26:54in case I do forget.
00:26:57So maybe I should tell you
00:26:59because you're so awesome and trustworthy?
00:27:02Well, if you'd like, go ahead.
00:27:05I'll tell you, but first...
00:27:11I'm going to hit the men's room.
00:27:17This is it.
00:27:19All I need to do is ask him where the code is,
00:27:21and my mission is over.
00:27:23Nothing can stop me now.
00:27:25Ariel?
00:27:27Except my ex-boyfriend.
00:27:32I don't know what you're talking about, darling.
00:27:34I don't know this... Ariel.
00:27:37No, no, no, no, no.
00:27:39You are definitely Ariel.
00:27:42But what are you doing in a place like this?
00:27:45You're poor.
00:27:47Fine. Please just leave, Max.
00:27:50It's Maximilian now.
00:27:52Because I'm Max, and I make millions.
00:27:55Whatever. Please. I'm begging you.
00:27:57Look at you.
00:27:59You look so much better.
00:28:01You look... what's that word?
00:28:04Rich?
00:28:06Please.
00:28:07I don't know if you've been keeping up with my life lately,
00:28:09but I've become very rich.
00:28:12Yes, you've sent me 50 messages about it.
00:28:14I had to block your number.
00:28:16Oh, yeah, that's right.
00:28:18Please, I'll do whatever you want, okay?
00:28:20I just...
00:28:22How about a kiss for old time's sake?
00:28:25You know, Ariel,
00:28:27sometimes I reminisce on our poor days together.
00:28:30What's happening?
00:28:32Do you not remember when we'd go and get taco Tuesday
00:28:35at that Mexican restaurant
00:28:37and eat unlimited discount tacos?
00:28:40How embarrassing.
00:28:42Don't you have a girlfriend?
00:28:44Yes, he does.
00:28:45A situation shipped the best.
00:28:48Let go, Max.
00:28:49Nobody walks away from Maximilian Fletcher.
00:28:52Get off her!
00:28:56Blaine Ellington?
00:28:58Max Fletcher.
00:28:59Maximilian?
00:29:01What are you doing with that peasant?
00:29:03That's my girlfriend you're talking about.
00:29:05Blaine Ellington.
00:29:07Getting my sloppy seconds.
00:29:22This isn't over.
00:29:25Come on, Regina.
00:29:30Just stay away from my man, skank.
00:29:33He's actually trying to.
00:29:37Are you okay?
00:29:39Yeah, I think so.
00:29:41We gotta get out of here.
00:29:43This isn't good.
00:29:45Max.
00:29:53Care to explain this?
00:29:55I assume the article does a good job.
00:29:59Getting into a physical altercation
00:30:02in a bar?
00:30:04What are you, a child?
00:30:06I'm not a child, but he started it.
00:30:09I don't care who started it.
00:30:11Ellington is a company based in family values.
00:30:16I was out with my girlfriend
00:30:18trying to uphold those family values.
00:30:20No, don't play the girlfriend card.
00:30:23The onus is you on this, pal.
00:30:26Maybe your sister was right.
00:30:29Maybe you're too much of a risk,
00:30:31even though you say you've settled down.
00:30:34Either way, I just hope all this boils over
00:30:36next time we talk.
00:30:39What would your father think?
00:30:58Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown.
00:31:01What is that? Some family motto I'm not aware of?
00:31:04It's Shakespeare, you idiot.
00:31:07What are you doing here?
00:31:09You don't want any of this.
00:31:11You don't know what I want.
00:31:13Uh, booze and bimbos?
00:31:16Or does page one of the paper say something different?
00:31:19She's not a bimbo.
00:31:22Then don't treat her like one.
00:31:25Treat her like Dad treated Mom.
00:31:30How do you mean?
00:31:33Bring her completely into your life.
00:31:36Let her know everything about you.
00:31:38I'm trying to. Just last night,
00:31:40we were sharing everything with each other.
00:31:42Okay, share more.
00:31:44Behind most men's success is a strong woman.
00:31:47I will.
00:31:49I'm gonna get close to this woman.
00:31:51You'll see.
00:31:53And you will be like two lovely berries
00:31:56molded onto one stem.
00:31:58Shakespeare.
00:32:00Yeah?
00:32:02Ow.
00:32:07Martina, how are you?
00:32:10How am I?
00:32:12Yeah, how are you?
00:32:14I am annoyed.
00:32:16Time is running out, understand?
00:32:18We chose you because we thought you could get the job done.
00:32:21But now I'm not so sure.
00:32:24Wait.
00:32:26Oh my God, do you have feelings for him?
00:32:29What? No.
00:32:31I hope so.
00:32:33What? No.
00:32:35I hope not, because you have four days to get that code.
00:32:38Or you can say bye to Mommy.
00:32:41Other than that...
00:32:43I am fine.
00:32:45Thanks for asking.
00:32:57Happy hump day, bestie!
00:32:59It's Tuesday, Hannah.
00:33:01Oh, right.
00:33:03Hey, how's your guy trouble coming?
00:33:05Better.
00:33:07And worse.
00:33:09That sounds super complicated.
00:33:11You have no idea.
00:33:13Can you come in here?
00:33:15I'll be right there.
00:33:17Good thing you've got work to distract you.
00:33:19Good thing.
00:33:26You have the file for the new China branch?
00:33:29Yeah.
00:33:37Long night?
00:33:41You know what?
00:33:43Let's forget about the file.
00:33:46Ugh.
00:33:54Let's just close our eyes for, um, ten minutes.
00:34:06That's an order.
00:34:08Okay.
00:34:16This is nice.
00:34:18Yeah.
00:34:21This should be, like, an everyday thing.
00:34:25Mm-hmm.
00:34:29Good morning! Another beautiful day in Ellington.
00:34:31Let's get it! Woo!
00:34:33Oh, Hannah!
00:34:38Well, I guess that's over.
00:34:42Um...
00:34:44Well, everything should be there.
00:34:48I can't even concentrate on work right now.
00:34:51Oh? Why?
00:34:53Well, I don't know if you heard, but...
00:34:58Oh, my. That's, uh, quite a scene.
00:35:01Well, I'm glad you weren't there.
00:35:04I can imagine.
00:35:06Yeah, I just...
00:35:08I hope my girlfriend doesn't think that that's my kind of lifestyle.
00:35:13You should just talk to her and be honest.
00:35:16Yeah. I'm gonna call her.
00:35:19What?
00:35:22Yeah, can you be in the room when I do it?
00:35:25Uh, you want me in the room?
00:35:27Yeah, maybe you could, you know, listen to her voice and read her.
00:35:32Tell me if she sounds upset.
00:35:35Um...
00:35:36Yeah?
00:35:37I don't know if I feel comfortable.
00:35:39She makes me so nervous.
00:35:41I'm sure you make her nervous, too.
00:35:44Shit, shit, shit!
00:35:45Uh-oh!
00:35:48Uh-oh!
00:35:49Think, Ariel, think!
00:35:51Uh...
00:35:52I'm gonna be sick. Uh, bathroom!
00:36:01Hello, darling.
00:36:02Hey, Valentina.
00:36:05How are you?
00:36:06Thriving, my dear.
00:36:08How are you feeling?
00:36:10A little banged up, but I've been worse.
00:36:13You should have been with me in my partying days in Ibiza.
00:36:16I was an absolute heathen.
00:36:24Well, I'm glad to hear you're feeling all right.
00:36:27Uh, I was worried.
00:36:32No need, darling.
00:36:33I'm actually at the spa right now.
00:36:37I wanted to know if I'd get to see you again.
00:36:41You will, very soon.
00:36:50Uh, sorry.
00:36:52Can I help you?
00:36:54I couldn't hear you. It kind of sounded like...
00:36:57Sorry, Eduardo is calling me for my hot stone massage.
00:37:02Must be going.
00:37:04Okay, uh, sure. See you.
00:37:07Ta-ta!
00:37:14Community theater.
00:37:16Character. I'm rehearsing.
00:37:20Murder mystery.
00:37:23I'll, uh, send you the dates.
00:37:26I'm not in the theater.
00:37:29That's fair.
00:37:33There she is.
00:37:45Mom, I'm home!
00:37:47Hi, honey. How was your day?
00:37:51It was... not boring.
00:37:54How was yours?
00:37:56It was wonderful.
00:37:58I did laundry, watched some soaps.
00:38:02Mom, what are you cooking? I told you I was gonna cook tonight.
00:38:06Well, you weren't home yet, and I wanted to go ahead and get started so your co-worker could have some, too.
00:38:11My co-worker?
00:38:13Hello, darling.
00:38:21Flora!
00:38:23What are you doing here?
00:38:25I was going to call you about a few work questions, but I was, uh, in the neighborhood.
00:38:31And thought I'd drop in.
00:38:33Flora mentioned that you got a job promotion. You didn't say anything about a job promotion.
00:38:39I guess it slipped my mind.
00:38:42Well, you two don't mind me. Go ahead and have your work talk. Dinner will be ready soon.
00:38:58What are you doing here?
00:39:00Checking in to see what progress was made last night.
00:39:03I, um... I got close to finding out where he hid the drive, but I...
00:39:08But close doesn't pay the bills, does it?
00:39:11I'll get you the drive soon, I promise.
00:39:14Well, it sounds like the clock is ticking fast.
00:39:18You're not getting attached.
00:39:20What? No. Of course not.
00:39:23Good. I was worried you were developing feelings for the man.
00:39:29Dinner's ready.
00:39:31Deeply sorry, darling. Urgent business. Must be taking off.
00:39:35Oh, um, okay, well...
00:39:37It was nice meeting you.
00:39:39You too, darling.
00:39:44Tick-tock.
00:39:46Hehehehe.
00:39:57Alright, I need ways to fix my image after that bar scandal. Any ideas?
00:40:04Enter rehab.
00:40:06Too tacky.
00:40:08Go volunteer in a third world country?
00:40:11Hmm, too obvious.
00:40:13Record an apology video for social media and post it there.
00:40:17Too cringe.
00:40:22Adopt an orphan. Now that is something.
00:40:25Ariel, how good are you at raising kids?
00:40:27Um, let's think of other options.
00:40:32What about a charity ball?
00:40:34Yes! That's it! That's the one!
00:40:37I like that. I like it a lot.
00:40:39Isn't she good?
00:40:41Phenomenal.
00:40:42Well, really, we wouldn't be here had I not appointed her as your assistant.
00:40:46So, really, this kind of all comes back to...
00:40:48Got it. Wait, what charity would it be for?
00:40:52How about unknown disorders and illnesses?
00:40:55I'd love that. Let's get it rolling.
00:40:58I'll start right away.
00:41:00Ariel, you've become an integral part of our company,
00:41:04and I want to have you seated at our VIP table.
00:41:07Gosh, thank you. I'm honored.
00:41:09Me, my family, Kurt, my girlfriend Valentina, and you.
00:41:14Good job, Ariel.
00:41:21Let's see how it looks. Come out.
00:41:26It fits perfectly, darling.
00:41:31Wow. Stunning.
00:41:34Next, I'll have to get your dress.
00:41:36A dress?
00:41:38What's the occasion?
00:41:40Well, I'm hosting this charity ball,
00:41:43and I would love for you to be my date.
00:41:46I love a good ball.
00:41:49But I must check my schedule, darling.
00:41:52Is this for that computer thingy you were talking about the other day?
00:41:56My new AI tech.
00:41:58It's going to revolutionize the world.
00:42:01It's going to revolutionize the world.
00:42:03Ah, yes.
00:42:06We got interrupted. You were going to tell me something important.
00:42:10What were you going to say?
00:42:13It's not really that necessary.
00:42:17You don't trust me?
00:42:19I do.
00:42:20This is my first major launch as Ellington CEO,
00:42:24and I just want it to go well.
00:42:27But I thought I was special.
00:42:30You are. I just...
00:42:32Well, you know, if you don't trust me...
00:42:35Wait.
00:42:40So you do trust me?
00:42:42Mm-hmm.
00:42:52So Blaine's going to tell me the super special secret?
00:42:58Mm-hmm.
00:43:01Where is it?
00:43:02It's here. In the mansion.
00:43:08It's here?
00:43:15Mm-hmm.
00:43:23Where in the mansion?
00:43:26It's...
00:43:29Oh.
00:43:32Yeah.
00:43:35Now?
00:43:39Okay. I'll be there.
00:43:47Where are you going, darling?
00:43:49They need me to be on this call with China, so I have to leave.
00:43:54You have to leave right now, darling?
00:43:57Now.
00:43:59I'm sorry.
00:44:00We'll pick this back up again soon, huh?
00:44:03Yeah.
00:44:07Martina was right about you.
00:44:09I should start sharing more with you.
00:44:27Okay.
00:44:42Did you get it?
00:44:44The code is in Blaine's mansion.
00:44:47Excellent, darling. Excellent.
00:44:58Okay.
00:45:14Max? What are you doing here?
00:45:15What the hell are you doing here, Ariel?
00:45:17Or should I say...
00:45:19Valentina Kingsley?
00:45:21You wouldn't understand.
00:45:23Oh, I understand.
00:45:24You're acting like somebody else to take advantage of your rich boss, hmm?
00:45:29No, I'm not. I...
00:45:31You know, I have the responsibility to tell your little hotshot boyfriend who you really are.
00:45:37It's only the right thing to do.
00:45:40Please don't. You don't know what I'm doing.
00:45:42Oh, you'll lose your job?
00:45:44Your reputation?
00:45:46Oh, once word gets out, nobody will want you?
00:45:50What do you want, Max?
00:45:52I just want a little... an arrangement.
00:45:56I'd rather not.
00:45:57Ariel, you really do not want to make me angry.
00:46:03Did you just come here to hurt me?
00:46:05Oh, sweetheart, I don't want to hurt you.
00:46:08I want to destroy you.
00:46:11You have 24 hours to end this charade on your own.
00:46:17If by tomorrow, I see little Valentina Kingsley running around town...
00:46:24I'll do it for you.
00:46:40You seem extra happy today.
00:46:43I feel like Valentina and I, we got on a whole nother level last night.
00:46:48Wow, that's awesome, man. I'm so happy for you.
00:46:51Hi, Mr. Lington. Hi, Kurt.
00:46:53Hi, Anna.
00:46:55Yeah, I feel like she's the one, Kurt.
00:46:58Kurt?
00:47:00Sorry, what were we talking about?
00:47:06Hi, Ariel. Are you alright?
00:47:09Yeah, I'm alright.
00:47:12I actually had an idea about the charity ball.
00:47:16Well, we keep reaching out to all of these extravagant venues for their availability.
00:47:21I was thinking we could host it ourselves.
00:47:24Where?
00:47:26I was thinking your house.
00:47:33I don't really like having people over at my house.
00:47:37Well, if we host it ourselves, it seems like a more intimate event.
00:47:42And then we could have it as soon as this weekend.
00:47:46That makes sense.
00:47:48Okay, let's do it.
00:47:50Great. I'll send out the invitations.
00:47:56She really knows this company inside and out.
00:47:59What do you know about Ariel?
00:48:03What do you want to know?
00:48:07Here you go, Mom.
00:48:09I'm sorry I couldn't stay awake for the movie.
00:48:12I'm just so sleepy.
00:48:14That's okay. We can watch it next weekend.
00:48:17Sweetie, you should be going out with your friends on a Saturday night.
00:48:21Mom, you are my friend.
00:48:23People your age.
00:48:25Who you can be.
00:48:27How dancing you can be.
00:48:29You're my friend.
00:48:31You're my friend.
00:48:33You're my friend.
00:48:35Who you can be out dancing with, flirting with boys.
00:48:40I actually kind of have met this one boy.
00:48:43What? What's he like?
00:48:46It's complicated.
00:48:48Honey, you just need to follow your heart.
00:48:51Yeah, he's kind of sweet.
00:48:55Um.
00:48:57Um.
00:48:59Oh.
00:49:01Sweetie, I'm fine.
00:49:03I just need some rest.
00:49:06Okay.
00:49:08Um.
00:49:25And then after your speech, we're going to dance the night away.
00:49:29I'm dreading giving this speech.
00:49:32I guess I'll just picture everyone wearing their underwear and I'll be fine, right?
00:49:36I always thought that was a little pervy, but.
00:49:40I promise you're going to be amazing.
00:49:44Thank you so much for helping with this.
00:49:47This charity ball idea was genius.
00:49:50I need to make it up to you at some point.
00:49:53I was just doing my job, Mr. Ellington.
00:49:58Well, I should get going.
00:50:00Wait, um.
00:50:02I should probably call Valentina, right?
00:50:05Make sure the dress fits.
00:50:08I'm sure she'd appreciate that.
00:50:10Alright.
00:50:11Good night.
00:50:24Hello, darling.
00:50:26I just wanted to make sure the dress fit.
00:50:29It's perfect.
00:50:31I'm looking forward to tomorrow.
00:50:34I can't wait either, darling.
00:50:36Good night.
00:50:54Ariel.
00:50:58This place looks amazing.
00:51:00Thanks, Kurt.
00:51:02You're looking sharp.
00:51:03Oh, yeah.
00:51:04Well, got a dress to impress, you know.
00:51:07Are you trying to impress anyone?
00:51:09Nah.
00:51:11Listen, Random.
00:51:14Does Hannah have a boyfriend?
00:51:16I don't think so.
00:51:19Do you like her?
00:51:21No.
00:51:22No, no, no.
00:51:24No, I'm just trying to make friendly conversation.
00:51:29Yeah.
00:51:31We need more balloons in the dining room.
00:51:35Oh.
00:51:37You're still here.
00:51:38Yeah.
00:51:39Uh, listen.
00:51:41If someone were to ask Hannah to dance,
00:51:46what do you think the chances are that she would say yes?
00:51:50Probably good.
00:51:52Are you going to ask her to dance?
00:51:54No.
00:51:55No.
00:51:56No, no, no, no.
00:51:57No, I'm just, um, a fan of wild, hypothetical scenarios.
00:52:03That one just sprung to mind.
00:52:05Mm-hmm.
00:52:06Okay.
00:52:08Yep.
00:52:10Um, well, I'm gonna go help Blaine practice his speech.
00:52:18So I'm going to do that right now.
00:52:21I will see you later.
00:52:23All right, see ya.
00:52:26And you must be Ariel.
00:52:31Yes, hi.
00:52:34Hmm.
00:52:35You know, my grandson has spoken very fondly of you.
00:52:38He has?
00:52:39Oh, yes, yes.
00:52:40In fact, he says that, well, this whole thing was your idea.
00:52:46I suppose so.
00:52:48Wonderful.
00:52:50Kind of reminds me of something Blaine's father would have done
00:52:53if he were in Blaine's situation.
00:52:56Wow, that's such an honor.
00:52:58I heard he was a great man.
00:53:00He was a great man.
00:53:03Martina.
00:53:05Have you had the pleasure of meeting Blaine's assistant, Ariel?
00:53:08Yes, briefly.
00:53:10She's really helped Blaine become quite an impressive CEO.
00:53:13Yes, she has.
00:53:14In fact, I can see her playing a bigger role at Ellington if she keeps it up.
00:53:21Why wait?
00:53:22She could be a part of something huge tonight.
00:53:24Really?
00:53:26I think so.
00:53:27Don't you, Ariel?
00:53:29Uh, uh-huh.
00:53:31Amazing.
00:53:33Well, I can't wait.
00:53:39Me either.
00:54:18Ariel.
00:54:20Blaine.
00:54:21There you are.
00:54:22I've been looking everywhere for you.
00:54:23Here I am.
00:54:25Have you seen Valentina?
00:54:27No, I don't think so.
00:54:29About your height, flowy hair, no glasses?
00:54:33Um, no.
00:54:34No, I don't think so.
00:54:36In fact...
00:54:37What?
00:54:39Nothing.
00:54:40It's ridiculous.
00:54:42I better say hi to those guests, but if you could find her for me, that would be great.
00:54:47I'll get right on that.
00:54:50Bye.
00:54:58Just go out there and hype Blaine up so he can deliver his speech.
00:55:02Then we're back to finding the drive.
00:55:05Okay.
00:55:07You can do this.
00:55:10Oh, hi, Ariel.
00:55:14Uh, you must be mistaken, love.
00:55:17I don't know this Ariel you speak of.
00:55:20Yeah, okay.
00:55:22Ariel.
00:55:24No, seriously.
00:55:26My name is Valentina Kingsley, and I'm a very wealthy socialite.
00:55:30Oh, I get it.
00:55:31It's like one of those improv games or something.
00:55:35No, no, no.
00:55:36No game.
00:55:37Who else should I be?
00:55:40Just be yourself.
00:55:42I'm the Queen of England.
00:55:46You can really tell it's me?
00:55:48Yeah, but, I mean, I can be very observant.
00:55:52Really?
00:55:53Mm-hmm.
00:55:54Okay, well, Hannah, it's very important that this stays between us.
00:55:58Okay.
00:55:59Can I ask why?
00:56:01Well, it's really complicated.
00:56:04Um, but you have to promise me you won't tell anybody about this.
00:56:08Can we make it a pinky promise?
00:56:11Yeah, sure.
00:56:13Aw, well, good luck with whatever this is.
00:56:20Yeah, thanks.
00:56:21I'm going to need it.
00:56:34Ah, there you are, darling.
00:56:45Valentina, I'm so glad to see you.
00:56:48Look at this place.
00:56:50I haven't seen a ball as elegant as this since the King of Spain's birthday.
00:56:53I'm glad it lives up to your approval.
00:56:55Of course.
00:56:57You're doing a speech, I see.
00:56:59Oh, I'm not much of a speech giver.
00:57:01They're going to eat you up, darling.
00:57:04You make me feel so confident.
00:57:07I need to be looking at you when I give my speech.
00:57:16Of course.
00:57:18Okay, perfect.
00:57:20Well, I saw a fellow philanthropist outside.
00:57:22I must go speak with her.
00:57:23Uh, Valentina, I was thinking maybe tonight I could show you the AI code.
00:57:32Yes, I would love to see what you've been working on.
00:57:36Great.
00:57:37Where would this be taking place?
00:57:39In the study, or...?
00:57:41Upstairs, hidden in a very high-tech safe.
00:57:45Ah, I see.
00:57:48You actually inspired my security team to create a new hiding space for it.
00:57:55What the heck did I say?
00:57:57I'll give you a hint.
00:57:58If you were to look for it, you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
00:58:05I'll let you get back to socializing.
00:58:09Good luck, darling.
00:58:33Excuse me.
00:58:34What are you doing in here?
00:58:41Excuse me.
00:58:42What are you doing in here?
00:58:44Um...
00:58:45And who are you?
00:58:47Oh, um, uh...
00:58:50Um, I, I, um...
00:58:53You look lost.
00:58:55I am, darling.
00:58:57I am lost.
00:58:59I've been to a lot of mansions, but this one is big.
00:59:04Grandfather, this is Valentina Kingsley, Blaine's new girlfriend.
00:59:10Oh, yes, yes, from the front page of the, the Times.
00:59:14Yes, I've heard a lot about you.
00:59:16I hope it was all good things.
00:59:18Well, I haven't seen him smile quite as much as he does now, since his father passed.
00:59:25And I trust that Blaine is treating you respectfully, like a lady?
00:59:32He is.
00:59:33Well, it was a good thing that we were up here to find you.
00:59:36If it had been during Blaine's speech, no one would know you're here.
00:59:41Right.
00:59:43Good thing.
00:59:45Shall we return to the party?
00:59:47Yes, we shall.
00:59:49Very nice meeting you, Miss Kingsley.
00:59:52You too, sir.
01:00:07You seem quiet. Is everything all right?
01:00:17Everything's fine, darling.
01:00:19Hey, Valentina, I have a girl question for you.
01:00:27Oh, my God, for the love of God.
01:00:29You clearly have a crush on Hannah.
01:00:31Just ask her to dance.
01:00:33You just met me, you can already tell?
01:00:35Yes.
01:00:37You read me like a book.
01:00:39I see what Blaine sees in you.
01:00:41You're really inquisitive.
01:00:43In fact, I'll go butter her up for you.
01:00:46Would you? That would be great.
01:00:49Dude.
01:00:54Hannah, I need a favor.
01:00:56Anything.
01:00:57When Blaine is giving his speech, I'm going to step away.
01:01:00If anyone asks, I'm not feeling well.
01:01:02And Ariel is going to help Valentina get some medicine.
01:01:07Got it.
01:01:09Oh, and Kurt's going to ask you to dance.
01:01:12Really?
01:01:14Sorry.
01:01:15When?
01:01:17Tonight.
01:01:18Oh, right, it's a ball.
01:01:33It's time, brother. You ready?
01:01:35As ready as I'll ever be.
01:01:41Thank you for coming tonight.
01:01:44It means a lot.
01:01:46Of course.
01:01:48You're going to be amazing.
01:01:56Ladies and gentlemen,
01:01:58I want to thank you all so much for coming out here tonight.
01:02:01It is my great honor and privilege
01:02:04to introduce my good friend,
01:02:06your CEO of Ellington Incorporated,
01:02:09Mr. Blaine Ellington.
01:02:17Good evening, everyone.
01:02:19I want to, before we get started,
01:02:22thank two people who, without their help,
01:02:25none of this would have happened tonight.
01:02:27My assistant, Ariel, and my girlfriend, Valentina.
01:02:35Not sure where they are right now,
01:02:37but I want to thank them for having my back.
01:02:45Hi, Anna.
01:02:47Oh, hi.
01:02:49You haven't seen Valentina around, have you?
01:02:52Seeing Valentina around, have you?
01:02:54I wanted to try to find her so she could watch Blaine's speech.
01:02:57Valentina is sick,
01:02:59and Ariel was helping her get medicine.
01:03:02Oh, okay.
01:03:06You look really pretty, by the way.
01:03:10Thanks.
01:03:12You look really pretty, too.
01:03:22All right, time to find this code.
01:03:53Blaine mentioned something I said?
01:03:56What the heck did I say?
01:04:00Phoenix.
01:04:17So, tonight, I'm going to tell you
01:04:20So, tonight, I'm pledging $10 million
01:04:24to help research cures for illnesses and disorders unknown.
01:04:29Thank you all for coming.
01:04:31I hope to see you on the dance floor.
01:04:51I'm sorry, Mom.
01:04:53I failed you.
01:05:20I'll give you a hint.
01:05:22If you were to look for it,
01:05:24you'd be staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
01:05:30He wasn't talking about the painting.
01:05:34He was talking about me.
01:05:51$10 MILLION
01:05:53$10 MILLION
01:05:55$10 MILLION
01:05:57$10 MILLION
01:05:59$10 MILLION
01:06:01$10 MILLION
01:06:03$10 MILLION
01:06:05$10 MILLION
01:06:07$10 MILLION
01:06:09$10 MILLION
01:06:11$10 MILLION
01:06:13$10 MILLION
01:06:15$10 MILLION
01:06:17$10 MILLION
01:06:19$10 MILLION
01:06:21$10 MILLION
01:06:31Okay.
01:06:36Think, Ariel.
01:06:48What could the numbers be?
01:06:50It couldn't be our first date, could it?
01:07:18I've got the code.
01:07:20Excellent, darling.
01:07:22I'll give it to you after the ball.
01:07:24Or you could give it to me now.
01:07:28Flora?
01:07:33What are you doing here?
01:07:35I have a way of being places I'm not supposed to be.
01:07:38Just like you, apparently.
01:07:42The code, darling.
01:07:48The future.
01:07:51In the palm of my hand.
01:07:54I was beginning to think you didn't have it in you.
01:07:57Blaine's a good man.
01:08:00You're awful.
01:08:02He's rich, darling. He'll get over it.
01:08:04My mom?
01:08:06And her surgery?
01:08:08I've been accused of many things.
01:08:10But I always keep my word.
01:08:13Now, go and celebrate.
01:08:15Now, go and celebrate. You deserve it, darling.
01:08:17You deserve it, darling.
01:08:45Valencina.
01:08:46There you are.
01:08:48How are you feeling?
01:08:50Stronger than the rains in the Amazon, darling.
01:08:53Excellent.
01:08:54Care to dance?
01:08:55Certainly.
01:08:59Well, well, well, well.
01:09:04Look at the happy couple.
01:09:11How did you get in?
01:09:12Oh, I have my ways.
01:09:14We lied about our names on the guest list.
01:09:17Anyway,
01:09:21I just came here to congratulate you
01:09:23on your little events.
01:09:25You need to leave.
01:09:27Actually, I don't think I do.
01:09:29Because I don't think you know who your little girlfriend is.
01:09:32She's Valentina Kingsley.
01:09:34No, no, no.
01:09:36There is no Valentina Kingsley.
01:09:40What?
01:09:41If only your little assistant
01:09:43had assisted you
01:09:45in researching her.
01:09:46You know, it's funny.
01:09:47I haven't actually seen her
01:09:49all night.
01:09:51Blaine, don't listen to him.
01:09:53What is he talking about?
01:09:55Yeah, she may have fooled
01:09:57everyone in here.
01:10:00But an ex-boyfriend
01:10:02never forgets a butt.
01:10:11Ariel?
01:10:15Ariel?
01:10:29This whole time you've been Valentina?
01:10:32That's right.
01:10:33This whole time
01:10:35you pretended to care about me.
01:10:37But you're just a liar.
01:10:39And worse,
01:10:41she's poor.
01:10:43Why?
01:10:44Yes, Ariel.
01:10:46But why?
01:10:48I'm so sorry.
01:10:50Ariel.
01:10:51Ariel, wait.
01:10:53How embarrassing.
01:10:57You know,
01:10:58I looked into you.
01:11:00You're in so much debt
01:11:02that it's surprising that you can even
01:11:04rent the Lambo that you drove here.
01:11:06How preposterous.
01:11:07If anybody looks into that,
01:11:09it will be a complete waste of time.
01:11:11Ew.
01:11:13You're poor?
01:11:16Regina!
01:11:22You're my hero.
01:11:24Thanks.
01:11:25Sometimes I just gotta tell her.
01:11:27You know.
01:11:31Ariel!
01:11:38What are you smiling about?
01:11:40I mean, come on.
01:11:42This proves it, right?
01:11:44He's a joke.
01:11:46No, he is your brother, Martina.
01:11:48He's a liability, Richard.
01:11:50And you are giving him the company
01:11:52with the luxury of not having to deal with this shit show
01:11:54because you won't be alive much longer.
01:11:56Oh, well, don't bet on that.
01:11:58You know, you got a lot of nerve
01:12:00talking to me like this, kid.
01:12:03You got a lot of nerve.
01:12:06You got a lot of nerve
01:12:08letting this ship go down
01:12:09when the lifeboat is right in front of you.
01:12:11I should be running this company!
01:12:14Or is this what success looks like to you?
01:12:21Look, I'm not poor.
01:12:23What is that?
01:12:24I do not want to hear it.
01:12:26You lied to me.
01:12:27Not only did you lie to me,
01:12:28but you embarrassed me in there.
01:12:30That is fair.
01:12:36Regina!
01:13:01That was a disaster.
01:13:06I just don't understand.
01:13:08Why would she go through all of that?
01:13:11I don't know, but
01:13:14these scandals are exhausting.
01:13:16Yeah.
01:13:18I don't think I'll be dating anytime soon.
01:13:23Right.
01:13:26I got a lot to think about.
01:13:29What do you mean?
01:13:31I mean we may have to take the company
01:13:33in a completely different direction
01:13:34if we're going to gain back the public's trust.
01:13:38You can't be serious.
01:13:39No?
01:13:44Something better happen sooner.
01:13:47I guess much worse.
01:13:50Did she want anything from you?
01:13:53I don't know, Martina.
01:13:54Nothing valuable?
01:13:55Martina, I said I don't...
01:14:03What?
01:14:20No!
01:14:30Ariel?
01:14:31Baby?
01:14:33Wow.
01:14:34You look like you had a rough night.
01:14:37It was a disaster, really.
01:14:40I feel awful.
01:14:41Oh.
01:14:43I'm so sorry to hear that, baby.
01:14:45Thanks, Mom.
01:14:47Well,
01:14:48I have something to tell you.
01:14:50Dr. Westfall called.
01:14:52Are you okay? What's going on?
01:14:55He
01:14:56said that an anonymous donor
01:14:58sent in the funds for me to have my operation.
01:15:01What?
01:15:02I'm scheduled for surgery on Tuesday.
01:15:04My God.
01:15:05Oh!
01:15:09Mom, I'm so happy.
01:15:12I think this calls for my famous chocolate cake.
01:15:15I agree.
01:15:50It's time to celebrate.
01:15:55To the future, darling.
01:16:03Drink.
01:16:04You've worked much too hard not to revel in your victory.
01:16:10There it is.
01:16:12Doesn't our little prize look nice?
01:16:16People walk in and out of my office
01:16:18having no idea what's in the room with them.
01:16:22Of course, I won't be able to enjoy it too much longer
01:16:25since my programmer is going to pick it up tonight.
01:16:28I guess I just feel bad.
01:16:31To get what you want in life,
01:16:33sometimes you have to do bold things.
01:16:35Break the rules a little.
01:16:39I guess.
01:16:41Ask any CEO and they'll agree.
01:16:44Including your little boy toy.
01:16:47Blaine would never do anything like that.
01:16:49Well, anyway,
01:16:51speaking of money,
01:16:53let's get that surgery paid for, shall we?
01:16:56What?
01:16:57All I need is your wiring info and I can send it on over.
01:17:00I trust that the original estimate hasn't changed?
01:17:05I'm sorry.
01:17:06You haven't paid for the surgery yet?
01:17:09No.
01:17:10That's why we're here, isn't it?
01:17:15Darling.
01:17:28I'm sorry.
01:17:41All right.
01:17:42One more drink and we'll start packing up my things.
01:17:46Deal. One more.
01:17:53Anna.
01:17:54Hi, Mr. Lington. May I come in?
01:17:55Sure. Come on in.
01:17:58Hi, cutie.
01:18:02Care for a drink?
01:18:03Oh, no. I stopped drinking on the job ages ago.
01:18:06Wait, what was that?
01:18:07Mr. Lington, I have a delivery for you.
01:18:10From who?
01:18:11Ariel.
01:18:17From who?
01:18:18Ariel.
01:18:20I don't want it. Take it back.
01:18:22She said you might say that,
01:18:24but she said that it was very, very important.
01:18:27How important?
01:18:29I don't know.
01:18:30But she did say that it was something so important that she only trusted me to deliver it.
01:18:35So it must be a big deal.
01:18:51Oh, my God.
01:18:53Oh, my God.
01:18:54Ew! What's happening?
01:18:56What's going on? What does this mean?
01:19:16Oh, Flora.
01:19:17Yes, darling.
01:19:18Your appointment had to leave early.
01:19:20I asked if they wanted her scheduled, but they said no.
01:19:23I didn't have any appointments scheduled for today.
01:19:26What was the name?
01:19:29Valentina Kingsley?
01:19:51You're rich.
01:19:52You'll get over it, darling.
01:20:09What's going on? What does this mean?
01:20:16Thank you for everything.
01:20:21Hannah, did you want to help me with that thing?
01:20:25Yes, yes. Let's do that.
01:20:33Can you please get the hell out of my seat?
01:20:40Lane, there's no easy way for me to say this,
01:20:46but it's time.
01:20:51But it's time.
01:20:57But it's time.
01:21:03To celebrate.
01:21:09You are going to regret this. I promise you that.
01:21:17Jeez, what did you do?
01:21:19I don't know, girl, but the way she wears that dress,
01:21:22she can step on me any day.
01:21:26See? I knew you could do it. I knew it!
01:21:30You know, your dad would be so proud of you.
01:21:46Dr. Westfall.
01:21:47Oh, hi, Ariel.
01:21:48Is surgery over? How did it go?
01:21:49Yes, we just finished. There were complications.
01:21:52Complications?
01:21:53Yes, but we were able to work through them,
01:21:56and your mother's going to be just fine.
01:21:59Really?
01:22:00Really, yes. In fact, they're wheeling her back into her room right now.
01:22:03She's going to need to rest for a few hours,
01:22:06but when she wakes up, she's going to feel better than she has in a long time.
01:22:10I can't thank you enough.
01:22:11I'm happy to help.
01:22:18I love you.
01:22:19I love you, too.

01:23:53Thank you for everything.
01:23:57I don't even know where to start.
01:24:01I'm not looking for an apology.
01:24:04You're not?
01:24:05No.
01:24:07See, I'm still CEO and I need an assistant.
01:24:11And you're kind of the best in town.
01:24:16I accept.
01:24:18And, uh, you still looking for a girlfriend?
01:24:25Well, if you're open to it, I'd love to apply.
01:24:31I love you, Valentina.
01:24:34I mean, Ariel.
01:24:37It's gonna take some getting used to.
