00:00:00Cheers. May it be full of surprises.
00:00:06Ho, ho, ho. I have a gift for you. Jessica, you have inherited this mansion, along with
00:00:12your father's business empire and assets worth over a billion dollars. I just need a signature
00:00:17from you. Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.
00:00:21We're rich! Let me hold on to it for you, baby.
00:00:29You know, my whole life, I grew up in foster care, moving from place to place, and now
00:00:38I finally have a place that I can call home. It must feel great to win the jackpot.
00:00:43No, my only wish is to, is to reunite with my mother.
00:00:47You bastard child. You will never reunite with your mother. We made sure that that whore
00:00:53is gone forever. My mother is gone because of you?
00:00:57Well, we had a little help from James Thornton, the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:01:04Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.
00:01:07Yes, ma'am. USCIS. Your visa expired years ago. You're being deported.
00:01:13No, there must be some mistake here. Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?
00:01:18Whoops. I guess I screwed up. What?
00:01:24Hey, baby. Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her?
00:01:29Two's the right side, babe. You'll never win against them.
00:01:33That's true. Um, according to the terms of the will, non-citizens are not eligible to
00:01:39inherit the estate. Everything will pass through your next of kin, Lisa and Kristen Miller.
00:01:45You thought you could get rich overnight? Keep dreaming.
00:01:50Seriously? Bon voyage, have sis.
00:02:00The boss is urgent. They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.
00:02:05Jessica Miller? It's her.
00:02:16Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:02:18She's so beautiful and kind. The girl I've always dreamed of.
00:02:22She saved my life once. I owe her.
00:02:28Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:02:30Jessica? Do I know you?
00:02:33She doesn't remember me.
00:02:39I'm Daniel. You're a lawyer. Just pretend we know each other.
00:02:43If I can get you out of here.
00:02:45We've spoken to the judge and Miss Miller should be released immediately.
00:02:49We can't deport her. She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.
00:02:55Who's the lucky guy?
00:02:57I am. I'm marrying her.
00:03:04A fake marriage won't save her.
00:03:06Our marriage is real.
00:03:08Yeah, a hundred percent real.
00:03:10Prove it then.
00:03:18That's it? You call that a kiss?
00:03:22Shh.
00:03:32Need more proof, officer?
00:03:34Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.
00:03:39And if you don't let her go, I'll make sure you lose your damn job.
00:03:43Fine, you can have her.
00:03:45Thank you, officer.
00:03:48Guys, I think we're good.
00:03:51It's not over.
00:03:55We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.
00:03:58And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.
00:04:01Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.
00:04:06Or it's game over.
00:04:10Well...
00:04:15Thank you...
00:04:17for the rescue.
00:04:19Oh, it's no problem.
00:04:21But, um...
00:04:23Daniel...
00:04:25would you...
00:04:27would you marry me?
00:04:29Oh, Jessica, I've waited for this moment for five years.
00:04:32I mean, it would only be a contract marriage.
00:04:36But once I get my green card,
00:04:38I'll inherit my father's business empire,
00:04:41and I'll share half of it with you.
00:04:44Even your misunderstanding looks so cute.
00:04:46I only want you, Jessica.
00:04:48But before I get my green card,
00:04:51you're gonna have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.
00:04:55They're trying to get rid of me,
00:04:57and they've already stolen my fortune,
00:05:00and they made my mother disappear.
00:05:04Deal.
00:05:06What?
00:05:07That's it?
00:05:10This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.
00:05:14Something that I want with you.
00:05:17Now, I know it's rushed,
00:05:20but I promise you,
00:05:22I will buy you a proper ring soon.
00:05:33From now on, let's make every Christmas our own
00:05:36for good memories.
00:05:50You can't do this!
00:05:52Jess, it's okay.
00:05:53Just wait here. I'll handle it.
00:06:00What?
00:06:02Why are you helping that girl?
00:06:04Tristan Miller is our ally,
00:06:06and she wants her the hell out of this picture.
00:06:08Too late, Dad. We already got married.
00:06:10Are you insane?
00:06:12Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?
00:06:17Daniel Thornton.
00:06:20My mother is gone because of you?
00:06:22Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,
00:06:25the most powerful man in the Thornton family.
00:06:29Wait. I recognize that face.
00:06:32From the newspaper, that was James Thornton
00:06:35from the Thornton family,
00:06:37the family responsible for my mother's disappearance.
00:06:44Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.
00:06:46She saved my life. I owe it to her.
00:06:48Roll the hell up, Daniel.
00:06:50You need to remember your position as the heir to our family,
00:06:54and you need to divorce that girl.
00:06:56Now, I'm doing this to clean your mess up.
00:06:59Just leave us alone.
00:07:03Oh.
00:07:08Sorry about that.
00:07:10Is your name Daniel Thornton?
00:07:14Yeah.
00:07:16The Thornton family are responsible
00:07:19for the disappearance of my mother.
00:07:21I have been searching for her my entire life.
00:07:25Jess, I can explain.
00:07:28I'm not marrying Thornton.
00:07:29Wait, wait, Jess, Jess.
00:07:31I'm not who you think I am.
00:07:33I have nothing to do with that family.
00:07:34Oh, really? Because your name is right here
00:07:36on the marriage certificate.
00:07:39I share the last name as Thornton,
00:07:41but I am not one of them.
00:07:43Thornton is a common name, just an ordinary guy.
00:07:45Really? Well, I don't believe you.
00:07:47I saw you talking to James Thornton.
00:07:50Is he your father?
00:07:54Is he your father?
00:07:55No, he's not my father.
00:07:57He was threatening to drive you out of the country,
00:07:59and I was not going to have anything to do with it.
00:08:01Jess, I'm on your side.
00:08:03You're not one of them.
00:08:06I'm sorry.
00:08:09It's okay.
00:08:11Don't worry about it.
00:08:16Well, you have a nice apartment.
00:08:19Welcome.
00:08:21Is that your Labrador?
00:08:23It looks exactly like mine.
00:08:24I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:26No way.
00:08:27I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.
00:08:29That's crazy.
00:08:34Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together
00:08:36just in case immigration ambush us.
00:08:38Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?
00:08:42I mean, you've done so much for me already, and I just...
00:08:45Jess, please, I insist.
00:08:47We made a deal, remember?
00:08:49I also want to thank you
00:08:52for giving me the chance to get rich.
00:08:55It's okay, Daniel.
00:09:25Jess?
00:09:28What are you spying on?
00:09:30No.
00:09:32No, no, no, no.
00:09:34I was just passing by and just...
00:09:37Do you need anything?
00:09:39I was joking.
00:09:40Yeah, could you pass me the towel?
00:09:43It's just hanging out next to the door.
00:09:46Yeah, sure, sure.
00:09:51Thanks.
00:09:56Oh, my God.
00:09:58What?
00:09:59I just got fired.
00:10:00What?
00:10:03Uh, wait, Jess, let me go with you.
00:10:06What?
00:10:08Yeah.
00:10:21Sam, please.
00:10:23Sam, please, don't fire me.
00:10:25I'm sorry, Jess,
00:10:27but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.
00:10:31I worked for this company for years.
00:10:34I'm sorry, Jess.
00:10:36There's nothing I can do.
00:10:39I'm sorry.
00:10:45Look who's here.
00:10:47Someone who just got fired.
00:10:50This suits you.
00:10:54It was you.
00:10:56I should have known you were behind this.
00:10:58I'm not gonna let you stay here and ruin things.
00:11:01I'm gonna take away everything you have, sister.
00:11:08You just made a big mistake, sir.
00:11:10Who are you?
00:11:11My name is Daniel Thornton,
00:11:13son of James Thornton,
00:11:15the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.
00:11:18Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton.
00:11:21Welcome.
00:11:23What brings you here?
00:11:26Well, I have some good news for you.
00:11:29Jessica Miller,
00:11:31she's just closed a billion-dollar deal.
00:11:34Take a look.
00:11:46Oh, my God.
00:11:51It's real.
00:11:53Absolutely.
00:11:54With her hard work and dedication,
00:11:56she's made this possible.
00:11:58It's a real shame you're gonna lose such a valuable employee.
00:12:02Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton,
00:12:04um, I have made a huge mistake.
00:12:08Uh, Jessica will stay.
00:12:11Good.
00:12:13And, uh,
00:12:15make sure nobody knows we had this conversation.
00:12:21Jessica, you should have told me.
00:12:28What are you talking about, Sam?
00:12:30Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company.
00:12:35Did you not just fire her?
00:12:37I changed my mind.
00:12:39Jessica's staying.
00:12:41Actually, she's being promoted
00:12:44to sales manager.
00:12:46Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as like her.
00:12:49Great.
00:12:51Thanks, Sam.
00:12:53This is not over.
00:12:59I can't believe it.
00:13:01Jessica kept her job, and she gets promoted.
00:13:03Don't worry, Lisa.
00:13:05I just spoke with James Thornton,
00:13:07and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.
00:13:10Jessica will get nothing.
00:13:12Oh, my God.
00:13:14That's fantastic.
00:13:20No way.
00:13:27Jessica?
00:13:29How's work?
00:13:31Did you get your job back?
00:13:33Daniel, I need a lawyer.
00:13:42Well, look who decided to show up.
00:13:45Too bad for you, Jess.
00:13:47Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.
00:13:50I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything
00:13:53for this little, pathetic, bastard child.
00:13:57You are out of luck.
00:13:59Well, that's a lie.
00:14:01You showed me the will,
00:14:03and I signed the documents.
00:14:05I'm sorry, Jessica.
00:14:07I've just discovered a revised will.
00:14:09It, um, supports Christianity.
00:14:12Mr. Thornton.
00:14:14Who is this?
00:14:16He's my lawyer, and a damn good one.
00:14:18Oh.
00:14:20You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money
00:14:22to pay for a fancy little lawyer.
00:14:24You sleep with him?
00:14:26Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?
00:14:30Talk all you want.
00:14:32It won't change anything.
00:14:35All right, Patrick.
00:14:37I'm gonna keep this short and sweet.
00:14:39I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.
00:14:42I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.
00:14:44The revised will's solid.
00:14:46Ted found an e-mail exchange with my father.
00:14:48Here, take a look.
00:14:51You've been caught, Patrick.
00:14:53I'm not going to let you get away with this.
00:14:55I'm not going to let you get away with this.
00:14:58I'm not going to let you get away with this.
00:15:00I'm not going to let you get away with this.
00:15:02You've been caught, Patrick.
00:15:04Honor of the will, I'll report you to the Bar Association.
00:15:07You'll lose your license,
00:15:08and any chance of practicing law are gained.
00:15:10That goes against your father's wishes.
00:15:12You don't understand the position you put me in.
00:15:14I'll deal with my father.
00:15:16Don't you worry about that.
00:15:18You just worry about doing the right thing.
00:15:25Um, this revised will's a fake.
00:15:28The original will's stamped.
00:15:29What the hell are you doing?
00:15:31Doing the right thing.
00:15:35Jessica, you've gotten your inheritance back.
00:15:38Congratulations.
00:15:40Oh, my God.
00:15:43Patrick, do what you are supposed to do,
00:15:46or James will make sure you face the consequences.
00:15:51Don't listen to her, Patrick.
00:15:53I'll deal with James Thornton.
00:15:55Who the hell do you think you are?
00:15:57James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.
00:16:01I sure can.
00:16:02Isn't that right, Patrick?
00:16:04Yes.
00:16:05The original will stands.
00:16:07No, you are crazy.
00:16:08No, I'm not.
00:16:10According to the original will,
00:16:11Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.
00:16:14Kristen, you're out.
00:16:16I think you two should leave.
00:16:18You homewrecker.
00:16:20Just like your mother.
00:16:22I will not allow violence.
00:16:25I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.
00:16:30I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.
00:16:34Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.
00:16:36You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.
00:16:38You grew up with a father who loved you.
00:16:41I had none.
00:16:42And you took my mother away from me,
00:16:45and I still don't know where she is.
00:16:48You two don't deserve this mansion,
00:16:51and I would rather give it away to charity
00:16:54than see the two of you living it.
00:17:02You two should pack your things up.
00:17:04You have one week to leave this house.
00:17:14What the hell were you thinking?
00:17:16Sabotaging my plan?
00:17:18I was just doing the right thing.
00:17:20The right thing?
00:17:21Going against me?
00:17:24Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.
00:17:26Her game is over.
00:17:28I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me.
00:17:31So what do you want?
00:17:34I just want Jessica to get her mom back.
00:17:38Interesting.
00:17:42What's in it for me?
00:17:44Once Jessica gets her mom back,
00:17:46I'll do whatever you want.
00:17:48Whatever I want?
00:17:50Like what exactly?
00:17:52I'll marry Ashley.
00:17:54You'll marry Ashley?
00:17:56Yeah.
00:17:57You're willing to do that?
00:17:59Yeah, I am.
00:18:02But only if she's reunited with her mother.
00:18:06Okay, deal.
00:18:09I'll make the arrangements.
00:18:11So you're really in love with this one, huh?
00:18:13Yeah.
00:18:15I am.
00:18:16Okay, good.
00:18:18I sure hope she's worth it.
00:18:21She is.
00:18:26What's wrong?
00:18:27We have...
00:18:29a guest.
00:18:31Mrs. Thornton.
00:18:33Good to see you again.
00:18:35Interview time.
00:18:37Great.
00:18:40When did you two meet?
00:18:42We met at a friend's party two years ago.
00:18:46What do you say, Jessica?
00:18:49Oh, yeah, yeah.
00:18:51Interesting.
00:18:53And when did you decide to get married?
00:18:56Eight months ago.
00:18:58Six months or eight months, which one is it?
00:19:00Yeah, eight months ago.
00:19:02Sorry, I just...
00:19:03Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.
00:19:05Sure.
00:19:07Easy mistake to make.
00:19:09And what's your anniversary date?
00:19:11March 15th.
00:19:13March 15th?
00:19:15All right.
00:19:21That's it?
00:19:22Yes, Mr. Thornton.
00:19:24I have everything I need.
00:19:26I'll report back to the judges.
00:19:30Oh, wait.
00:19:31This.
00:19:35How did we do in there?
00:19:39It was...
00:19:40pretty bad.
00:19:42Look.
00:19:44I'm the son of James Thornton.
00:19:46I know who you are.
00:19:49Okay.
00:19:52You want to bribe me?
00:19:55Yes.
00:19:56I can't be bribed.
00:19:58Here's one million dollars.
00:20:04Two million dollars.
00:20:06Right.
00:20:10Three million dollars.
00:20:13It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.
00:20:16Please.
00:20:17Can you just give us one more week to prepare?
00:20:20I really want to be with this woman.
00:20:22She means the world to me.
00:20:24She saved my life.
00:20:26I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.
00:20:28Make it count.
00:20:31Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.
00:20:34If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.
00:20:37Of course.
00:20:38And one more thing.
00:20:40I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.
00:20:43I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.
00:20:46Don't try and fool me.
00:20:52She gave us another chance.
00:20:54Oh, thank God.
00:20:55We have one week to get our story straight.
00:20:58Thank you, Daniel.
00:21:00You've been very, very helpful today.
00:21:09Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special,
00:21:13so I did a little digging, and I found this.
00:21:17This tree is amazing.
00:21:24What happened?
00:21:27I don't know.
00:21:29I don't know.
00:21:31I don't know.
00:21:33I don't know.
00:21:35I don't know.
00:21:38Let me have a look.
00:21:40Let me have a look.
00:21:42Um, I have a festive gift.
00:22:12For you two.
00:22:19Wow.
00:22:21Jess, you look gorgeous.
00:22:29And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.
00:22:32You did it.
00:22:33You did it.
00:22:41You did it.
00:22:43You did it.
00:23:12Okay.
00:23:16This could be wrong.
00:23:18Maybe.
00:23:20Maybe not.
00:23:23So, that is how you negotiate.
00:23:29You're an only fan.
00:23:53Stop.
00:23:55Hold on.
00:23:57I got this.
00:23:59Oh.
00:24:23Oh.
00:24:25Oh.
00:24:27Oh.
00:24:29Oh.
00:24:31Oh.
00:24:33Oh.
00:24:35Oh.
00:24:37Oh.
00:24:39Oh.
00:24:41Oh.
00:24:43Oh.
00:24:45Oh.
00:24:47Oh.
00:24:49Oh.
00:24:51Oh.
00:24:52Oh.
00:24:54Oh.
00:24:56Oh.
00:25:01That watch looks familiar.
00:25:06I've seen this before in the magazine.
00:25:09It looks like one of those adventure family watches.
00:25:17Is it real?
00:25:18You wear a fake watch?
00:25:25Yeah.
00:25:27I'm so happy, Jess.
00:25:36There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.
00:25:48Oh my god.
00:26:00Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?
00:26:03I told him it would only be a contract marriage.
00:26:15Honestly, this is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.
00:26:19Daniel, I'm so sorry about last night.
00:26:24It wasn't supposed to happen and I promise it will never happen again.
00:26:31She didn't mean it.
00:26:33Oh, Jessica, last night was amazing.
00:26:39Yeah, Jess, I get it.
00:26:44It was a one-time thing.
00:26:46Yeah, just a one-time thing.
00:26:49Yeah.
00:26:52Anyway, you're a big day today.
00:26:56You're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:27:00Thank you for the reminder.
00:27:05Now that you mention it, I'm really scared.
00:27:08Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.
00:27:12What I was meant to say is I'm going to help you.
00:27:22I don't know what to do, Mother.
00:27:23That bitch is kicking us out.
00:27:25We still have a chance.
00:27:26That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.
00:27:33So we just need a board member to back us up.
00:27:35I will call Richard.
00:27:37Everyone respects Richard's vote, and I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.
00:27:42And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.
00:27:44You go, girl.
00:27:56These clothes are beautiful, but very expensive.
00:28:04Take this one.
00:28:05That is $9,000.
00:28:09Jess, don't worry about it.
00:28:12It's on me.
00:28:13Look at it as my first gift to my wife.
00:28:17Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.
00:28:19Look, Jess, you're going to be a CEO, which means you've got to look the part.
00:28:24Trust me.
00:28:25It's an investment.
00:28:28Mr. Thornton, welcome back.
00:28:30How can I assist you today?
00:28:33Well, of course, Mr. Thornton owns this store.
00:28:37Jess, why don't you try this one on?
00:28:40You'll look great in it.
00:28:45Wow, Jess, you look amazing.
00:28:50You think so?
00:28:51Yeah.
00:28:53This is exactly what a CEO would wear.
00:28:55Absolutely.
00:28:56Great choice.
00:28:58We'll take this one.
00:29:00Something on your mind?
00:29:02Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just that clerk seemed very fond of you.
00:29:08Oh, um, being friendly is a part of my job.
00:29:12Okay.
00:29:19So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?
00:29:23Now that you mention it, maybe she was a little friendly.
00:29:27But we got a discount.
00:29:30Show off.
00:29:39What a slut.
00:29:44Trust me, Jess, you can do this.
00:29:47Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?
00:29:49They will.
00:29:50Trust me.
00:29:51Just speak from the heart.
00:29:52Show your true self.
00:29:55Look at you two little lovebirds.
00:29:59Pathetic.
00:30:03Ted, we can talk about this later.
00:30:05Okay.
00:30:08You go in.
00:30:09I'll meet you in there soon, okay?
00:30:16Good luck in there, sis.
00:30:19You're gonna need it.
00:30:22You don't have the votes.
00:30:26I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO, but I built myself from the bottom up here.
00:30:33Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services, reaching industries from healthcare to energy.
00:30:43We have over 10,000 employees worldwide who have worked hard to build this company from the ground up.
00:30:51And I was one of them.
00:30:52I know them.
00:30:54And I believe that I can help lead this company to become everyone's company.
00:31:00Let's proceed to the vote.
00:31:02All in favor?
00:31:07Robert lost his damn mind.
00:31:09He picked his secret child to be the CEO only because of his guilty conscience.
00:31:14Richard, if I may.
00:31:16I'm not done talking.
00:31:17You can't lead us.
00:31:19And you're not getting my vote.
00:31:23Richard, if I may speak.
00:31:24Go ahead.
00:31:26But I won't change my mind.
00:31:31Sorry for interrupting everyone, but I have something important to share with you all today.
00:31:35Who the hell are you?
00:31:36Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.
00:31:39What did you just say?
00:31:41How do I say this?
00:31:43Uh, you're a sex pervert.
00:31:46What?
00:31:49You see, everyone, this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits against Richard over the past 30 years.
00:31:59Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.
00:32:04They're all just allegations, and they've all been settled.
00:32:06I'm innocent.
00:32:08We've also got in contact with some of the victims, and they're willing to come forward and testify.
00:32:11Actually, I have not finished yet.
00:32:14You're also stealing money from the company.
00:32:16And we have the financial records to prove it.
00:32:24The evidence is clear.
00:32:26He's guilty.
00:32:29Okay, then, let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.
00:32:34All in favor?
00:32:39We have 15 votes.
00:32:42The board has decided.
00:32:43Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.
00:32:47Security, escort him out immediately.
00:32:50I know my way.
00:32:56And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO?
00:33:16I'm sorry I was late.
00:33:18I had to make sure I had enough evidence to mail.
00:33:20No, don't be sorry, Daniel.
00:33:22That was so worth the wait.
00:33:25This is not over.
00:33:27You'll see.
00:33:29How's packing going, Lisa?
00:33:30You're about to be evicted soon.
00:33:32Bye-bye.
00:33:38She won again, that bitch.
00:33:40I know. It's so unfair.
00:33:42Do we have a guest?
00:33:43Lisa, honey, I've been trying to reach you.
00:33:47Why haven't you returned my calls?
00:33:49I've been busy.
00:33:50Busy.
00:33:52Dealing with Jessica.
00:33:54How did you know?
00:33:55Oh, I know.
00:33:56And I think I know how to help you take it down.
00:33:59Again.
00:34:00We don't used to be anymore, Adrian.
00:34:02They only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.
00:34:05To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.
00:34:11Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Danny.
00:34:13I also have another Christmas surprise for you.
00:34:17Who are you calling?
00:34:22Is it?
00:34:23Yes, Jess.
00:34:24It's your mother, Clara.
00:34:26Oh, my God, Mom.
00:34:28Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.
00:34:31The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.
00:34:34I had no option but to vanish.
00:34:38Oh, Mom, it's okay.
00:34:40It's okay.
00:34:41Like, you didn't do anything wrong.
00:34:42I'll bring you back into the country, I promise.
00:34:46Daniel, how did you find her?
00:34:48I have a few powerful friends.
00:34:50They've all done me a favor.
00:34:52But I'll leave you two alone.
00:35:04Two more, please.
00:35:07Daniel.
00:35:10Adrian.
00:35:11Long time no see, buddy.
00:35:13Oh, my God, how long has it been?
00:35:16Ten years.
00:35:17Ten years.
00:35:18Oh, my God.
00:35:19The last time I must have seen you was, uh, law school.
00:35:23Yep.
00:35:24Go Reds.
00:35:26Go Reds.
00:35:28What are you doing here?
00:35:30Just in town to run some errands.
00:35:32Just thought I'd come here for a quick bite.
00:35:34Nice, man, nice.
00:35:36I saw your date earlier.
00:35:38She looks pretty.
00:35:39Yeah, my wife.
00:35:41Your wife?
00:35:42Yeah, Jess.
00:35:43You're married?
00:35:44Yes.
00:35:45Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.
00:35:46Come on, let's go say hi.
00:35:48Come and say hello.
00:35:49It's good to see you, buddy.
00:35:50Good to see you, too, man.
00:35:52Jess.
00:35:53I wanted you to meet an old friend of mine.
00:35:55Adrian, this is Jess.
00:35:56Jess, this is Adrian.
00:35:57We went to law school together.
00:36:04I don't want to see him.
00:36:09I don't want to see him.
00:36:13You two know each other?
00:36:14Yes, Daniel.
00:36:16I was her first boyfriend.
00:36:21Come on, Jess.
00:36:22Don't you miss me?
00:36:24I don't want to see you anymore.
00:36:26You know you still love me, Jess.
00:36:29No, I don't.
00:36:33I think you should leave, Adrian.
00:36:36Okay, Daniel?
00:36:37Relax.
00:36:38Now.
00:36:44I'm leaving.
00:36:49Does she know she's lying?
00:36:54Boss, Adrian Westley now represents the Eastside Christian Method.
00:36:58They want him to test the will.
00:37:00I should have known.
00:37:01What else?
00:37:03Adrian also knew his name, Jessica.
00:37:05Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork.
00:37:10He caused all this trouble.
00:37:15That son of a bitch.
00:37:17We need to win this war.
00:37:19Do whatever it takes.
00:37:28Daniel?
00:37:30Sorry.
00:37:31Did I wake you?
00:37:33No, can...
00:37:35Can you join me in bed, please?
00:37:40You sure?
00:37:46I just...
00:37:47I wanted to apologize for earlier.
00:37:50The restaurant.
00:37:54I got a bit carried away.
00:37:56Jess, you don't need to apologize.
00:37:59Adrian's an asshole.
00:38:00He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.
00:38:03I did care for Adrian once.
00:38:06But he just destroyed everything we had.
00:38:10I want you to know that I'm here because of you.
00:38:17And you're the only one who I love.
00:38:22No one else.
00:38:33I love you too, Jess.
00:38:36And I'm not going anywhere.
00:38:51Good morning, husband.
00:38:53Morning, wife.
00:38:56Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?
00:38:58If only you were with me.
00:39:21You're going to do great today.
00:39:30Jess, here's your coffee.
00:39:36What's wrong?
00:39:37Oh, it's just, it's this job.
00:39:39It's all so new to me.
00:39:41Okay, calm down.
00:39:43Remember, you're the CEO, which means you're the boss.
00:39:47Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.
00:39:51Hey, Jess.
00:39:53Look at you sitting in the big chair now.
00:39:57I am so happy you're here.
00:40:02You must be Daniel.
00:40:04Jessica's been talking about you for days.
00:40:08I'm flattered.
00:40:10I really wish you could be here with me, G.
00:40:11It's exhausting.
00:40:13At least you have a job, Jess.
00:40:15I've been looking for work for the past two months.
00:40:19Jess, do you like Deanna being here?
00:40:26Of course.
00:40:27We've been besties since forever.
00:40:30Yeah, what kind of question is that?
00:40:32Well, why don't you use your CEO power and hire Deanna?
00:40:39Oh, I don't, I know what you mean.
00:40:41I don't understand.
00:40:43How would you like to come work for me?
00:40:49Of course.
00:40:51Okay, then.
00:40:53My first order as a CEO,
00:40:57Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant.
00:41:02Oh my God, Jess, thank you so much.
00:41:05See?
00:41:06Being a boss is easy.
00:41:08You can do whatever you want.
00:41:14Oh my God.
00:41:17What's wrong?
00:41:19The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.
00:41:22What is happening?
00:41:24This isn't good.
00:41:26The stock's getting down.
00:41:28Well, well, well.
00:41:30Looks like things aren't going so well.
00:41:33What did you do, Lisa?
00:41:35I asked Richard and some of the other investors to sell their stocks.
00:41:40The board members are not going to be happy about the stock prices, Jessica.
00:41:44What do you want?
00:41:46Resign as CEO or I will destroy this company.
00:41:50No way.
00:41:52Okay.
00:41:54Then I will destroy this company.
00:41:56Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.
00:41:59They're angry.
00:42:05What are you going to do, Jess?
00:42:07Okay, I'll meet with the board.
00:42:09Wait, Jess.
00:42:11Don't go. Take a seat.
00:42:14What is it?
00:42:16Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?
00:42:20Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.
00:42:24That's impossible. You would need at least a billion dollars.
00:42:28I guess anything's possible these days.
00:42:31God damn it!
00:42:33God, she's annoying.
00:42:38You must be my lucky star.
00:42:48Daniel.
00:42:51Gianna.
00:42:53I know who you are, Daniel.
00:42:55You're the son of James Thornton.
00:42:57How did you find out?
00:42:59My identity is meant to be a secret.
00:43:01I used to work for your father.
00:43:03Please don't tell Jess. I'll pay you.
00:43:05How much do you want?
00:43:06I don't want your money.
00:43:08I care for my friend.
00:43:10Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.
00:43:14I'm sorry, Gianna.
00:43:16It's okay.
00:43:18I just want to know why.
00:43:20She hates my family.
00:43:22I have to lie to her.
00:43:24She hates your family, but she loves you.
00:43:28I can see that.
00:43:30You really think so?
00:43:32Yes.
00:43:33I do, too.
00:43:35She's the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:43:39That's good to hear.
00:43:41Please protect her.
00:43:50Daniel.
00:43:52It's my mom.
00:43:54Adrian threatened her.
00:44:00Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.
00:44:02He said he was going to block her from entering the country.
00:44:05What should we do?
00:44:07Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.
00:44:11I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.
00:44:28Ted.
00:44:30I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.
00:44:33Book her on the first flight out tomorrow.
00:44:35Got it, boss.
00:44:36She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.
00:44:38Good.
00:44:46Jess has been taken care of.
00:44:48Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.
00:44:51Thank you, Daniel.
00:44:54But I'm...
00:44:56I'm still scared.
00:44:58I just... I need a day off.
00:45:00I love the sound of that.
00:45:02What do you have in mind?
00:45:04I was thinking...
00:45:08I want to buy a house.
00:45:19So...
00:45:21Do you like this place?
00:45:23It's amazing.
00:45:25But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.
00:45:28But you don't need to buy me a house.
00:45:31No, no.
00:45:33I insist.
00:45:35You've done so much to help me.
00:45:38Besides, we can live together here.
00:45:41Mr. Thornton.
00:45:42Hi.
00:45:43Your father is here.
00:45:44Are you meeting him here?
00:45:50Well...
00:45:52I've never met your parents.
00:45:54So...
00:45:56I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.
00:45:59Oh, is...
00:46:01Is that him?
00:46:03Come on, let's go say hi.
00:46:05Jess, wait.
00:46:06Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:46:08Um...
00:46:11I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.
00:46:14Why?
00:46:15Uh...
00:46:17Because he has a heart condition.
00:46:20I think it's best you stay here.
00:46:23Okay.
00:46:25I'll just...
00:46:27stay here, then.
00:46:30Good.
00:46:35Dad?
00:46:36Come on.
00:46:37Daniel.
00:46:38What the hell?
00:46:39Jessica's here.
00:46:40She can't see her face.
00:46:41Don't take them off.
00:46:44I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.
00:46:48Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?
00:46:51Ashley, really?
00:46:53Not today.
00:46:56And what is this shirt you're wearing?
00:46:59Mother insisted I wear it
00:47:01in this charity event in New England.
00:47:03Right.
00:47:04Said it makes me look more grounded.
00:47:08I'm approaching one.
00:47:11And don't go changing our subject.
00:47:13I want to discuss our agreement.
00:47:15I give you Clara, and you marry Ashley.
00:47:22Why does he look so... nervous?
00:47:25Am I not good enough?
00:47:30Do we have to talk about this right now?
00:47:33I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.
00:47:35I want this deal done now.
00:47:38Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.
00:47:40Lisa Miller might try to sabotage us.
00:47:43Lisa Miller might try to sabotage everything.
00:47:46This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.
00:47:49You shouldn't have left it alone.
00:47:51All I'm asking is just a few more days.
00:47:53Ashley is coming to town in a few days.
00:47:56What?
00:47:58Jess.
00:48:00Jess.
00:48:09Dad, this is Jess.
00:48:11Jess, this is Dad.
00:48:13You can call him Jimmy.
00:48:15Jimmy?
00:48:19I'm Jimmy, sweetie.
00:48:21It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.
00:48:23And can I just say, that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.
00:48:27It really, really suits you.
00:48:29Well, thank you, Jessica.
00:48:31It's one I'm fond of.
00:48:35So, who is Ashley?
00:48:37I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
00:48:40Oh, she's just an old family friend.
00:48:45They grew up and went to law school together.
00:48:48Oh.
00:48:49And she had Daniel's first kiss.
00:48:52Oh.
00:48:54Her wedding is approaching soon, and I'd like Daniel to attend.
00:48:59Dad!
00:49:00I'm reminiscing about the good old days.
00:49:02No, it's fine.
00:49:03Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood and more about his life.
00:49:08You bastard child!
00:49:14Well, well.
00:49:16What do we have here?
00:49:18You think you can afford this place?
00:49:21You're about to lose this battle and be out on the streets soon.
00:49:26Who's this clown?
00:49:30Looks like he belongs in a circus.
00:49:32How dare you, Kristen!
00:49:34How do you know my name?
00:49:36And don't you dare call me by my first name.
00:49:39That's enough!
00:49:42Don't talk to my father like that.
00:49:47He's your father.
00:49:50How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?
00:49:53Don't talk to my family like that.
00:49:57Your family?
00:49:58Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:01Especially your mother.
00:50:03The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:06A whore.
00:50:14Your family suck, Jessica.
00:50:17Especially your mother.
00:50:19The home-wrecking tramp.
00:50:22A whore.
00:50:25Damn!
00:50:30How dare you slap me!
00:50:33That is enough, Kristen.
00:50:36You're not going to lay a hand on my wife.
00:50:41Ladies, you need to leave now.
00:50:44You can't throw us out. We're buyers.
00:50:46We're not going anywhere.
00:50:47The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.
00:50:50You need to leave now or I will call security.
00:50:55You will regret this.
00:50:59I've heard that a thousand times.
00:51:01Now leave.
00:51:12Thank you, Jessica.
00:51:14You stood up for me.
00:51:16Well, we're family, Jimmy.
00:51:18It's what I'm supposed to do.
00:51:23Well, I appreciate it.
00:51:26You're a nice girl.
00:51:28You found a good wife, Sam.
00:51:32Dad, about Ashley's wedding.
00:51:35I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.
00:51:37I'll look into it. I'll speak to her about it.
00:51:40Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:51:42Daniel can still attend. It's not a problem.
00:51:45Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.
00:51:48I'm not the jealous type.
00:51:50Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.
00:51:55Well, you decide, Daniel.
00:51:57Oh, there's the lawn party.
00:52:00You two want to come? It's in three hours.
00:52:04Yeah. Dad, we'll go.
00:52:07Great. I'll see you there.
00:52:20Well, this place is extremely high class.
00:52:25Well, my dad has a few rich friends.
00:52:32And James Thornton is here.
00:52:35I know you don't want to see him.
00:52:38But Jess, my dad's here.
00:52:40He's going to join us later.
00:52:42Okay.
00:52:44The bidding's about to start.
00:52:50Oh, the bitch is here!
00:52:52I know. Don't worry, we can teach him a lesson.
00:52:55Yeah, how?
00:52:56Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.
00:53:00With money.
00:53:01Here with money? What money?
00:53:03I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.
00:53:05Yeah, I know. Your mother spoke to Richard.
00:53:07He said he's willing to donate us some cash
00:53:09if we make Jessica look ugly.
00:53:14You're the best.
00:53:17I know.
00:53:22Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.
00:53:25We have for you The Last Dance.
00:53:28Bid starts at one million dollars.
00:53:34One million dollars!
00:53:38Two million dollars, right here.
00:53:43Three million dollars!
00:53:47Four million dollars!
00:53:50What are they doing? Where did they get that money from?
00:53:53I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.
00:53:56Really? But I don't even care about this bid.
00:54:00Five million dollars!
00:54:02Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:04Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.
00:54:09Five million dollars!
00:54:11Daniel, what are you doing?
00:54:13Don't worry, Jess. I've got this.
00:54:15I've got six million dollars.
00:54:18Cash.
00:54:19Boom.
00:54:21Can't compete with that.
00:54:23Watch this.
00:54:25Seven million dollars!
00:54:28Eight million dollars!
00:54:31Did that just happen?
00:54:32Ten million dollars!
00:54:36Awesome.
00:54:38Ten million. Once, twice, sold.
00:54:42Sold.
00:54:44Is there a gentleman there?
00:54:52Where did you get that money from?
00:54:55Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?
00:55:00Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.
00:55:04Jessica.
00:55:05James Thornton.
00:55:07In the flesh. Or Mrs. Thornton.
00:55:11I want to apologize to you.
00:55:13I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.
00:55:17But I'm trying my best to make amends.
00:55:20Well, I don't know what to say.
00:55:24Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.
00:55:26You've just got to trust me.
00:55:27Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?
00:55:30Jess!
00:55:32Jessica!
00:55:33Don't follow me!
00:55:36Oh, this could get interesting.
00:55:50Oh, look who's alone.
00:55:54No, just leave me alone.
00:55:56You're never going to win against James Thornton.
00:55:58He's my mother's best friend.
00:56:00You're going to lose everything.
00:56:02You're going to lose everything.
00:56:04Poor babe, still played by the big boys.
00:56:07James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.
00:56:11Wait, what did you just say?
00:56:14James Thornton and his son?
00:56:16Wait, Jess, you didn't know?
00:56:18Daniel Thornton is his son.
00:56:22Oh, my God.
00:56:24I didn't know that.
00:56:25Now that I do.
00:56:28That's enough!
00:56:31Excuse me, Mr. Thornton.
00:56:33Crown Prince Ed of the Thornton family.
00:56:44This man's been lying to you all along.
00:56:47Poor little girl's got no one to trust.
00:56:49Both of you, get out of here.
00:56:53Right.
00:57:01Jess, I've been trying to tell you...
00:57:03Am I a joke to you?
00:57:05No, what do you mean?
00:57:07You and your father.
00:57:09You've been playing me this whole time.
00:57:12No, I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.
00:57:16I can't trust you.
00:57:18You're lying to me.
00:57:20You're right.
00:57:22You're right.
00:57:25I have been hiding things from you.
00:57:29You know what I haven't told you yet?
00:57:32Another big secret.
00:57:35Are you sure you want to hear this?
00:57:42The other big secret is...
00:57:44The first time we met isn't always like this.
00:57:48It was five years ago.
00:57:50Five years ago?
00:57:51Yes.
00:57:53At a party.
00:57:55I was drunk and I fell in a pool.
00:58:06Oh, thank God you're alive.
00:58:12I was drowning and you saved my life.
00:58:15But you won't remember that.
00:58:18But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.
00:58:22Father?
00:58:24That was you?
00:58:25Yes.
00:58:26My father forbid me from seeing you.
00:58:29But I didn't care.
00:58:31I confronted him.
00:58:33You can't tell me what to do, Dad!
00:58:35You can't stop me from seeing her!
00:58:36I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.
00:58:38That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.
00:58:43And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.
00:58:47And I felt so guilty.
00:58:48It's okay.
00:58:52I was ashamed to approach you.
00:58:54I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.
00:58:57And I thought the best thing to do was just be here with you.
00:59:00Now I know.
00:59:02And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.
00:59:05Well...
00:59:08I saved you.
00:59:10And you saved me.
00:59:14Because we just belong together.
00:59:19Ew.
00:59:21Corny.
00:59:24But just...
00:59:27No more secrets.
00:59:29Okay?
00:59:31I promise.
00:59:33No more secrets.
00:59:49You're up early.
00:59:51Yeah.
00:59:53I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.
00:59:55Better sooner than later.
01:00:00Giannis just texted me.
01:00:02She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.
01:00:06I should postpone it.
01:00:08No.
01:00:09You should definitely go to that.
01:00:11You need to look good in front of your board.
01:00:13Really?
01:00:14Yeah.
01:00:15I'll go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.
01:00:18Thanks.
01:00:19You're the best.
01:00:25Well, that went better than I thought.
01:00:27You still underestimate yourself, Jess.
01:00:29You did great.
01:00:34Hey, Jess.
01:00:36What are you doing here?
01:00:41What are you doing here?
01:00:43I wanted to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.
01:00:48Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?
01:00:55Okay, I'm telling you now.
01:00:57Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel, it's not gonna work.
01:01:03Because Daniel already told me everything.
01:01:06Everything?
01:01:07Are you so sure?
01:01:08Yeah.
01:01:09Him and his father came clean about everything.
01:01:11There is nothing more to hide.
01:01:13And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?
01:01:16What?
01:01:17Ashley Wimbledon.
01:01:19Heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.
01:01:21Ring any bells?
01:01:23Ashley.
01:01:27Ashley.
01:01:29Who is Ashley?
01:01:31I heard you guys talking about her earlier.
01:01:33Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.
01:01:38They grew up and went to law school together.
01:01:40Oh.
01:01:41And she had Daniel's first kiss.
01:01:47He did mention Ashley.
01:01:52He did?
01:01:53Yeah, but he's not gonna marry her.
01:01:55I remember that conversation.
01:02:01Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.
01:02:04I'll be seeing her soon.
01:02:06What are you laughing about?
01:02:12Daniel wants to bring her back with him.
01:02:15But he's not gonna see her.
01:02:20After years of separation with your mother,
01:02:23Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?
01:02:26And what kind of a husband does that?
01:02:28I had an early meeting this morning and Daniel didn't want me to worry.
01:02:33So easily manipulated, Jess.
01:02:37Just like old times.
01:02:39Yeah, well, I don't believe a word you say.
01:02:43Daniel isn't gonna bring her back.
01:02:46Care to find out together?
01:02:56Are you sure everything is taken care of?
01:02:58Yes.
01:02:59You're free to live in this country.
01:03:01Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.
01:03:05I'm deeply sorry.
01:03:07Well, you did bring me back here.
01:03:09Right now, I just want to see my daughter.
01:03:11We'll go through.
01:03:13Not so fast, Danny boy.
01:03:18You're too late, Lisa.
01:03:20Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.
01:03:22Oh, I don't think so.
01:03:24Agents, do your thing.
01:03:25Wait.
01:03:26What?
01:03:27This is a mistake.
01:03:28No.
01:03:29It's her past customs.
01:03:30She can stay.
01:03:31Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?
01:03:35I don't think so.
01:03:36Back off, Lisa.
01:03:37Watch it, pretty boy.
01:03:39Jess!
01:03:40Mom!
01:03:41Mom!
01:03:42What are you doing?
01:03:43Where are they taking my mother?
01:03:44Mom, I will bring you back.
01:03:46I promise.
01:03:47Just stay strong.
01:03:48Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.
01:03:51Adrian, you sabotaged this.
01:03:53You'll pay for this.
01:03:55See, babe?
01:03:56I told you he's not bringing her back.
01:03:58You said everything was taken care of.
01:04:00Jess, it's not me.
01:04:01It's them.
01:04:02You're lying, Daniel.
01:04:03Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about?
01:04:05Jess?
01:04:08Jess?
01:04:09He said that you were going to marry Ashley.
01:04:11Okay, so it's true.
01:04:13Jess, can we just talk about this?
01:04:16No.
01:04:17No, no, no, no, no.
01:04:18Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.
01:04:21I can't trust you anymore.
01:04:23Jess!
01:04:24It's just...
01:04:25It looks like you lost, Daniel.
01:04:27You'll never get her back.
01:04:50Oh, thank God you're alive.
01:04:58Huh?
01:05:19Ted, what's the problem with Clara?
01:05:21Her payport was flawless.
01:05:23You're right, boss.
01:05:24Customs in the U.S.C.I.S.
01:05:26When people confirm that she illegally entered the country,
01:05:29it's good.
01:05:30But it is not.
01:05:34Agents, do your thing.
01:05:36Wait.
01:05:37What?
01:05:38This is a mistake.
01:05:39No.
01:05:40Jess!
01:05:41Jess!
01:05:42Baby!
01:05:43Mom!
01:05:45The ICE agents weren't real.
01:05:47They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.
01:05:50Hold on a sec.
01:05:54You're right, boss.
01:05:55We found out those people want her.
01:05:57What should we do?
01:05:59I need to find out where they took them.
01:06:01Use all our contacts.
01:06:02I'm not gonna let them get away with this.
01:06:04On it, boss.
01:06:13Well, well, well, Clara.
01:06:16Bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?
01:06:19We finally have what it takes to get it all back?
01:06:22Don't look at me like that.
01:06:23You disgust me.
01:06:30Jess, we need to talk.
01:06:32I don't want to talk to you.
01:06:33It's about your mom.
01:06:35I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.
01:06:37The ICE agents weren't real.
01:06:40What are you talking about?
01:06:42I spoke to Ted.
01:06:43He told me that Clara illegally came into the country.
01:06:46It was a setup.
01:06:48Do you actually expect me to believe that?
01:06:51After all the lies.
01:06:52You're so full of shit, Daniel.
01:07:01Hello, bastard child.
01:07:03Yes, we have your mother.
01:07:05And if you ever want to see her again,
01:07:07follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.
01:07:10And don't bring anyone.
01:07:11Especially Daniel.
01:07:16Let me come with you.
01:07:17No, they want me alone.
01:07:18I don't want to risk...
01:07:19Jess.
01:07:20Don't follow me.
01:07:21I will not let you do this alone.
01:07:29Mom?
01:07:30Bastard child, over here.
01:07:33Let her go.
01:07:34This has gone on far enough.
01:07:36Not so fast, sis.
01:07:38This is only the beginning.
01:07:44You sign this,
01:07:46we let her go.
01:07:48And what is it?
01:07:49An agreement signing everything over to us.
01:07:52The house.
01:07:54Company.
01:07:56Everything.
01:08:04It's signed?
01:08:06No, let her go.
01:08:08God, you are so naive, sis.
01:08:12What more do you want?
01:08:14Get down on your knees
01:08:16and show that you know your place.
01:08:20Get down on your knees
01:08:22and show that you know your place.
01:08:25Wait.
01:08:30That's better.
01:08:38Now bark like a dog.
01:08:44Come on.
01:08:49That's enough, Kristen.
01:08:55We're getting out of here, Monk.
01:09:02Let's get her out of here.
01:09:04Come on, let's go.
01:09:06God, Daniel!
01:09:10I can't.
01:09:12We need to finish this.
01:09:13Mom, we gotta go.
01:09:14Come on.
01:09:16Daniel!
01:09:20Come on.
01:09:22Jess.
01:09:25Don't try and talk.
01:09:26The police, they're on their way.
01:09:28Jess.
01:09:30I'm so sorry.
01:09:31Why are you apologizing?
01:09:33Just don't move.
01:09:44The doctor said it was nothing serious,
01:09:46so he'll be out of here soon.
01:09:49Jess, I just want to apologize.
01:09:51I'm so sorry.
01:09:53Daniel, what are you apologizing for?
01:09:56You saved my mom.
01:09:58You saved us.
01:10:01Hello again, Mr. Thornton.
01:10:03Officer, you're here.
01:10:05Yes.
01:10:06You promised me last week you'd get that interview done.
01:10:11Officer, my husband is injured.
01:10:14He's literally lying in bed.
01:10:16Well, that doesn't change the requirements.
01:10:19Jess, it's okay.
01:10:22We can do the interview.
01:10:27We can do the interview.
01:10:30Are you insane?
01:10:32We haven't rehearsed this.
01:10:34Jess, when you see we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas,
01:10:39there's no better time to do this.
01:10:41You're right.
01:10:44We're ready, officer.
01:10:46Let's start with the question I asked you last week.
01:10:49When did you two first meet?
01:10:51Five years and four months ago.
01:10:53I don't understand.
01:10:55Last time you said it was six months ago
01:10:58when the other one said it was eight months ago.
01:11:00We lied, officer.
01:11:02But it was five years ago at a pool party.
01:11:06And we had our first kiss when we first met.
01:11:10It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:12But for some reason,
01:11:14I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:19It sounds pretty far-fetched.
01:11:22But for some reason,
01:11:24I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.
01:11:27Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.
01:11:31There's nothing more he needs to do to prove his love for me.
01:11:34One last question.
01:11:36One last question.
01:11:38How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?
01:11:48Relax.
01:11:50I can tell it's been at least three times.
01:11:52Right. Well, that's my interview done.
01:11:55You two are quite the couple.
01:11:57Thank you, officer.
01:11:59Daniel. Daniel.
01:12:01She's coming.
01:12:03Who's coming?
01:12:07Your fiancé.
01:12:09That's who.
01:12:14Your fiancé.
01:12:16That's who.
01:12:18Ashley.
01:12:20I guess I'm not done yet.
01:12:22You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.
01:12:25Ashley, please.
01:12:27Can't we talk about this?
01:12:29So you're Jessica Miller, huh?
01:12:32Adrian's told me all about you.
01:12:35I don't know what Adrian told you,
01:12:38but it's not what you think.
01:12:40Daniel was supposed to marry me,
01:12:43and then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.
01:12:47Ashley, our engagement was long over before Jessica came into the picture.
01:12:54Oh. I see.
01:12:56You think this is over.
01:12:59I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.
01:13:03The Thornton name is as good as ruined.
01:13:07You can't do that, Ashley.
01:13:13Watch me.
01:13:19You're not the only heiress here.
01:13:24I own Miller Empire.
01:13:27And if you come for the Thorntons,
01:13:30the Miller Empire is gonna come for you so hard.
01:13:38You've got guts, Jessica.
01:13:41I like you.
01:13:45I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.
01:13:48This is so much better than watching TV.
01:13:50Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.
01:14:01I always knew Daniel didn't love me,
01:14:04but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after his true love.
01:14:09But I guess I'm happy
01:14:12that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.
01:14:18So...
01:14:20that's it?
01:14:22That's it.
01:14:25Enjoy your happy ending, darling.
01:14:32Andrea, bring the car around.
01:14:37Did that actually just happen?
01:14:39Yeah.
01:14:41Wow. You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.
01:14:47You can see that coming.
01:14:51This is all your fault, Mom.
01:14:53If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe we wouldn't be in this mess.
01:14:56Don't put all the blame on me. You're just as much a part of this as I am.
01:14:59Where is Adrian? He should be here by now.
01:15:02Miss me?
01:15:04Where have you been?
01:15:06Just tying up a few loose ends.
01:15:08Don't worry about it. Everything's going according to plan.
01:15:11Plan? What plan? Everything's falling apart.
01:15:24What did you do, Adrian?
01:15:27Well, me myself? I done nothing illegal.
01:15:30You two on the other hand, that's a different story.
01:15:34You set us up!
01:15:36I'm just ensuring my own safety.
01:15:38After all, I kept my hands clean.
01:15:46Ow! You're not gonna get away with this, asshole!
01:15:49I already have.
01:15:54Hmm.
01:15:58I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.
01:16:02Used to be a real family home back then.
01:16:05Then things just went south.
01:16:08Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.
01:16:11We'll turn this into a good family house.
01:16:13No more hatred. No more backstabbing.
01:16:17I missed you every single day, Jess.
01:16:19I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through.
01:16:23Jessica?
01:16:25Clara?
01:16:27I am so sorry for everything that I've done to you both.
01:16:32I was wrong.
01:16:34And I know I can never fully make up for it, but I want to try.
01:16:39James, you kept us apart for so many years.
01:16:42It's gonna be hard to forgive and forget.
01:16:44I know, Clara.
01:16:48Jess, are you all right?
01:16:50Jess, are you all right?
01:16:54Yeah, I know, I'm... I'm fine.
01:16:57You know, I just feel...
01:16:59just a little nauseous, that's all.
01:17:02Have you been getting any other symptoms, like dizziness or fatigue?
01:17:07Well, yeah, but I just thought that was from all the stress.
01:17:11Oh.
01:17:13Sweetheart.
01:17:15You're pregnant.
01:17:17Really?
01:17:18Really?
01:17:19You're showing all the signs, Jess.
01:17:23We're gonna have a baby.
01:17:25Wait.
01:17:27That means I'm gonna be a grandpa.
01:17:31Yeah.
01:17:39Daniel.
01:17:42There's something you need to do.
01:17:46What's this?
01:17:47This is a ring your grandma left.
01:17:50And I think this is the perfect time to use it.
01:17:55Go grab it.
01:17:56I'm gonna do this?
01:17:57Yeah, go.
01:18:08Jess?
01:18:09Jess!
01:18:13Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas,
01:18:16and we've been through so much in that time.
01:18:19And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.
01:18:24And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.
01:18:27I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.
01:18:30What I'm trying to say is, Jess...
01:18:36Will you marry me?
01:18:40For real this time.
01:18:42Yes, Daniel, yes, I will marry you.
01:18:45Yes!
01:18:46Really?
01:18:47Yes!
