00:00:00They say the most primal human things are fighting, and well, I was about to learn both.
00:00:16Every girl wants to find her prince charming, but unfortunately we don't exactly live in
00:00:21a fairy tale world.
00:00:23There's no such thing as happily ever after.
00:00:26Where is the duck for table two?
00:00:29Table two ordered something special, chef.
00:00:32No, table two ordered the special, and the special is the duck.
00:00:37What is this?
00:00:38Nothing.
00:00:39Yes, exactly.
00:00:40This is nothing.
00:00:41Now.
00:00:42The duck.
00:00:43Just do what your boss says, Lily.
00:00:45You can't afford to lose another job.
00:00:47How can you pay for mom's operation when you're homeless?
00:00:51Table two, the duck.
00:00:56So I'm thinking about adopting a dog, you know, like the little tiny dogs that can fit
00:01:00in your handbag.
00:01:01They're so cute.
00:01:02So anyway, once your inheritance is secure, the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:01:07But what is this mystery clause you won't tell us about, Jack?
00:01:11Jack?
00:01:13Jack?
00:01:15Hello?
00:01:17Yeah, the dog.
00:01:21Hi.
00:01:24Hi.
00:01:29You ordered the special?
00:01:31Actually, I-
00:01:33Trust me.
00:01:34Who is that girl?
00:01:37Something about her.
00:01:39It's like I've been waiting for her my whole life.
00:01:41Well, that was presumptuous.
00:01:43Huh?
00:01:44The waitress not bringing you what I ordered?
00:01:46Don't tell me you're actually impressed by that little slut, Jack.
00:01:49It looks good.
00:01:51The food or the waitress?
00:02:01And what do you think you are doing?
00:02:03I'm making something from this century.
00:02:05You know what?
00:02:06That's it.
00:02:07I've had enough.
00:02:08You are fired.
00:02:09Get out of here.
00:02:10Not this again.
00:02:11What did you say?
00:02:13I am serious this time.
00:02:15You are fired.
00:02:16You get out of here.
00:02:17What?
00:02:18You take this.
00:02:19You give up your act.
00:02:20Get out.
00:02:21No, please, sir.
00:02:22It won't happen again.
00:02:23No more Mr. Nice Guy this time.
00:02:24You get out.
00:02:25You leave.
00:02:26Please.
00:02:27No.
00:02:28Now.
00:02:31They're taking the trash out, I see.
00:02:36Yeah, the trash.
00:02:41Asshole.
00:02:51Please.
00:02:52Don't scream.
00:02:53Don't scream, baby.
00:02:55Or do you want to scream for me?
00:02:57Please.
00:03:02Hey.
00:03:06No.
00:03:07No.
00:03:08No.
00:03:10No.
00:03:11No.
00:03:12No.
00:03:13No.
00:03:14No.
00:03:15No.
00:03:16No.
00:03:17No.
00:03:18No.
00:03:20Hey, wait.
00:03:43Not now, weren't I?
00:03:46Jack, my man.
00:03:47Que paso?
00:03:48What's up, bro?
00:03:49So, I'm a little disappointed that you're making me ask again.
00:03:52When you gonna unlock the inheritance, bro?
00:03:54The deal of a lifetime isn't going to wait forever.
00:03:57Yeah.
00:03:58Yeah, come on.
00:03:59Are you even listening?
00:04:00I mean, if we don't move on this Morrison thing, someone else will.
00:04:03And I mean, I'm not going to be that guy.
00:04:05Are you going to be that guy?
00:04:07Um.
00:04:10How can I help my mom when I can't even afford something to eat?
00:04:14Maybe next time.
00:04:18Call me.
00:04:19I'll call you back.
00:04:20Jack, come on.
00:04:21You gotta lock on me.
00:04:22Jack's never done that before.
00:04:23If he doesn't lock away this inheritance deal, then the Morrison deal's over.
00:04:30We're over.
00:04:31Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren.
00:04:34I've got just the plan.
00:04:42Just when I think I've found her, she's gone again.
00:04:47How am I going to find her again?
00:04:57You could always marry Vivian Chase, sir.
00:05:00Are you out of your mind?
00:05:01Vivian and I are done.
00:05:02Never again.
00:05:03She's just business now.
00:05:06Very well, sir.
00:05:08Although it is your inheritance, it's still mine.
00:05:12Very well, sir.
00:05:14Although it is your inheritance at stake, sir.
00:05:17I'll find another wife.
00:05:19I'm afraid not.
00:05:20But the terms of your parents' will are quite specific.
00:05:24You must be married before your 32nd birthday for precisely 365 days.
00:05:29I know, I know.
00:05:30And with that fateful birthday fast approaching, there's little time.
00:05:34The inheritance must be claimed within the month.
00:05:37And most crucially of all, you must not tell a soul about the marriage cause.
00:05:43Especially your wife.
00:05:45Or I lose everything.
00:05:47Everything.
00:05:58Don't complain about anything.
00:06:00I don't complain. I don't.
00:06:02All I'm saying is, you're going to have to start living in the real world.
00:06:05I am living in the real world.
00:06:12Really?
00:06:13Because getting fired yet from another restaurant job is the real world.
00:06:17Creative differences.
00:06:19There are always creative differences with you.
00:06:23Lily.
00:06:25You've got to open up your own place.
00:06:27You're a chef, not a fucking line cook.
00:06:29So you've got to show the world what you've got.
00:06:32Besides, I have my share of money.
00:06:35But without yours, we're never going to be able to afford mom's operation.
00:06:40Yeah, and it'll be all my fault.
00:06:43Lily.
00:06:46There is an opening at my office.
00:06:49Seriously?
00:06:50It's stable.
00:06:52Health insurance. 401K.
00:06:54I'd rather die.
00:06:55You'd rather be broke.
00:06:56No, I'd rather...
00:07:03How can you help mom when you can't even take care of yourself?
00:07:12Fine. Yeah, you're right.
00:07:14Let's do it.
00:07:33Hi.
00:07:36Name?
00:07:38Lily Dunning.
00:07:40Can I help you?
00:07:42Yes, I'm here for the job interview.
00:07:44My sister's Megan.
00:07:45She works here.
00:07:47Last place of employment?
00:07:49Chez Francois.
00:07:51A restaurant?
00:07:52Yes, I'm a chef.
00:07:54My mom's a cook.
00:07:56I'm a cook.
00:07:58I'm a cook.
00:08:00I'm a chef.
00:08:02My passion's cooking, so I...
00:08:04And does this look like a restaurant to you?
00:08:06No.
00:08:08No, of course not.
00:08:10And why do you think someone like you could work here?
00:08:14I just need a job.
00:08:17Sorry, I'm...
00:08:19Thanks. We'll let you know, okay?
00:08:23You can go now.
00:08:25Bye-bye.
00:08:31Ah!
00:08:33Screw this!
00:08:37Fuck!
00:08:48What are you looking at?!
00:08:56I'm sorry, mom.
00:08:58I've tried everything, and I've let you down.
00:09:00You?
00:09:04Me.
00:09:08You dropped something.
00:09:10How did you...?
00:09:14What are you doing here?
00:09:17I have a proposition for you.
00:09:19Sorry, I'm not interested in propositions from strange men in suits.
00:09:23Well, hold on. Just hear me out.
00:09:25I heard you get fired.
00:09:28I know you don't have any money.
00:09:31Looks like you're in a bit of a rough spot.
00:09:33I'm doing fine, thank you.
00:09:36Really?
00:09:39What if I told you this proposition could solve all your problems?
00:09:44Really? Solve all my problems?
00:09:47I've got a lot of problems.
00:09:49What if I told you I need a wife?
00:09:51I'd tell you that there are apps for that.
00:09:53For one year.
00:09:55Classy.
00:09:56Look, listen.
00:09:58I have a very important business deal,
00:10:00with some very important people involved,
00:10:02and I need to see stability.
00:10:05Okay, so find someone stable.
00:10:07Well, that's just it.
00:10:09I need someone who won't fall in love with me.
00:10:11Someone who will just walk away after the year.
00:10:14And you seem uniquely qualified.
00:10:17What, you think I'm good at walking away?
00:10:21Okay, well, what's in it for me?
00:10:23Well, anything you want.
00:10:25Money, a place to live,
00:10:27complete financial freedom to pursue your dreams.
00:10:30Just think of it as a business deal.
00:10:41Wow.
00:10:43Yeah, that's a really big diamond.
00:10:47Yeah, that's a really big diamond.
00:10:51It's just a very small part of the deal.
00:11:04You'll have your whole wing of the house.
00:11:06My own wing?
00:11:07Complete privacy.
00:11:09But you will have to attend events with me.
00:11:11Play the happy wife.
00:11:17Okay.
00:11:34This is, um...
00:11:38specific.
00:11:40I like clarity.
00:11:48Wife agrees to perform.
00:11:54Very specific.
00:11:58Is there a problem?
00:12:01Jack, we need to talk.
00:12:05What's going on here?
00:12:08No.
00:12:14I'm saying yes.
00:12:25To everything.
00:12:37To everything.
00:12:46This is insane.
00:12:48Shut up, Warren.
00:12:53This is fucking nuts.
00:12:55Shut the fuck up.
00:12:57I do.
00:13:07I do.
00:13:37I do.
00:13:48This marriage, it's...
00:13:51it's just a contract?
00:13:57Well...
00:13:59I think that the contract says that
00:14:03this is my room.
00:14:07What?
00:14:13Good night, husband.
00:14:25And this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain of an evening.
00:14:29And the room on the left is the kitchen.
00:14:38And we have the west wing library
00:14:42and the east wing pool.
00:14:47How do you find anything in here?
00:14:50One of dots, madam.
00:15:00And this room is the, um...
00:15:04Oh, dear.
00:15:07Would you excuse me?
00:15:09Of course.
00:15:10Apologies.
00:15:34What are you doing here?
00:16:04Oh, my gosh.
00:16:10Problem?
00:16:13This is...
00:16:15a lot.
00:16:17The contract stipulates appropriate attire for all occasions,
00:16:20including tonight's charity gala.
00:16:23I can't accept this.
00:16:25You can, and you won't.
00:16:27I can't accept this.
00:16:29You can, and you won't.
00:16:31I can't accept this.
00:16:32You can, and you won't.
00:16:35Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.
00:16:42You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:44Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:58Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?
00:17:00Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.
00:17:14And then I said,
00:17:15do you want me to cut this steak?
00:17:17I don't need a knife.
00:17:18I need a chainsaw.
00:17:20Okay.
00:17:21Jackie, there you are.
00:17:24Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:17:27We simply must celebrate.
00:17:30I heard about your little stunt wedding.
00:17:32That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?
00:17:36I could think of a dozen things you could do to me.
00:17:44My God, this is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:48I'm sorry, but I didn't even do anything.
00:17:52Where did you find this one, Jackie?
00:17:54Waitstaff Training School?
00:17:56Vivian.
00:17:58Oh, that was it.
00:18:00She was actually a waitress.
00:18:02Or, I don't remember.
00:18:04Whatever it was.
00:18:06Excuse me.
00:18:09So, what you got to say, Hive?
00:18:12We're done with the ex.
00:18:18As I was saying...
00:18:27Mmm.
00:18:44You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:18:58Mmm.
00:19:10Wow.
00:19:12Good?
00:19:13Surprisingly good.
00:19:15Surprisingly good?
00:19:18Well, payment for spying.
00:19:21Payment accepted.
00:19:23You know, a house this grand, I would expect a kitchen to match.
00:19:33I had to make do.
00:19:35Yeah, well, I never cook.
00:19:37It's a shame.
00:19:46You can go now.
00:19:54Bye.
00:20:03You, um, wanted to see me?
00:20:07Time for your first lesson.
00:20:09My what?
00:20:14Self-defense.
00:20:16Never know when you might need it.
00:20:18I don't know if that's really...
00:20:20Number one. Stance.
00:20:23Move the feet apart.
00:20:25Bend this knee.
00:20:27Yeah.
00:20:28Then move this foot forward.
00:20:30Good.
00:20:31Okay.
00:20:32Now, hands up.
00:20:34Protect the face.
00:20:36Okay.
00:20:38Now, like this.
00:20:40Oh, God, sorry.
00:20:46I'm not really good at this.
00:20:49We're just getting started.
00:20:51Oh.
00:20:53Maybe we should just focus on business.
00:20:57Rule number one.
00:20:59Stance.
00:21:01Right?
00:21:22Okay.
00:21:31Every chef needs proper tools.
00:21:33I, um, a business expense?
00:21:38Business expense.
00:21:41These are the best knives in the market.
00:21:44The best knives for the best chef.
00:21:48Why are you doing this?
00:21:50The contract.
00:21:52No.
00:21:54The real reason.
00:21:56Maybe I just like watching you work.
00:22:01Maybe...
00:22:03You just like watching me.
00:22:09You know, that, um...
00:22:11This doesn't change anything.
00:22:14Of course not.
00:22:18This is for your mother.
00:22:25The...
00:22:27No, this is too much.
00:22:29This should cover the whole thing.
00:22:31At least I can do it.
00:22:36I think that's literally the nicest thing a man has ever done for me.
00:22:40What's the catch?
00:22:48Oh, shit.
00:22:52We've got a problem.
00:22:54Morning to you, too.
00:22:56So, the inheritance release date is set, but...
00:22:58If anyone finds out about the marriage, then...
00:23:00No one's gonna find out.
00:23:02Oh, really?
00:23:04Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town.
00:23:06It's under control.
00:23:08Is it?
00:23:10Because it seems like you're letting your feelings control all your...
00:23:13I said it's handled.
00:23:15Handled.
00:23:26Just remember what's at stake here, yeah?
00:23:29This Morrison deal...
00:23:31Is a deal of a lifetime.
00:23:35Don't tell me you're actually fooling...
00:23:37Get out.
00:23:45I'm not fooling you.
00:24:15Fuck.
00:24:45Fuck.
00:25:11Oh, no.
00:25:13God.
00:25:27Jack, darling.
00:25:29Fancy seeing you here.
00:25:31Vivienne?
00:25:33The 82 crystal.
00:25:35Remember the crystal, Jack?
00:25:37I can still feel it running down my back, just thinking about it.
00:25:40We even used to drink some of it.
00:25:43Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:45You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.
00:25:51Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:25:53This must be so boring for you.
00:25:55It's so insightful, Vivienne.
00:25:57You do bore me.
00:25:59Darling.
00:26:01The adults have business to discuss.
00:26:03Why don't you go back to, like, chopping?
00:26:05Or whatever it is that you do.
00:26:07So, basically, you know the company way
00:26:09that we have our investments holding in?
00:26:11I had a business meeting with Hannah today
00:26:13and she has basically advised me to say that
00:26:15our investments are not making any profit
00:26:17because me, myself, isn't actually doing all too well.
00:26:20So, my proposal for next year would be basically...
00:26:38Quite the whirlwind romance you've got there.
00:26:41What's the catch?
00:26:43There's always a catch.
00:26:45Excuse me, I...
00:26:47Rebecca Chen. Social pages.
00:26:49Two days from first meeting to marriage.
00:26:53This must be some kind of record.
00:26:55Though lately I've been more interested in, uh, business deals.
00:26:59Hmm. What would you say?
00:27:01What would you say?
00:27:03Love at first sight?
00:27:05Or something more contractual?
00:27:07You know, you should really write romance novels.
00:27:10Seems you have quite the imagination.
00:27:17We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.
00:27:19I have a feeling there's quite a story here.
00:27:31Oh, the Morrison Foundation dinner's tonight.
00:27:33Oh, great. Another dinner.
00:27:35It's important.
00:27:37They're all important.
00:27:38It's a part of the deal.
00:27:40They're all a part of the deal.
00:27:43You knew what you were signing up for.
00:27:45Did I?
00:27:49At least Vivian will be there.
00:27:51To talk deals and acquisitions and mergers.
00:27:56Whatever.
00:28:01Hmm.
00:28:09Nice. Real mature.
00:28:14No, don't.
00:28:18Okay. Okay, fine.
00:28:20You wanna go?
00:28:22No.
00:28:25No, no, please.
00:28:28Okay, can we?
00:28:30No.
00:28:32No, no, no.
00:28:34Let go!
00:28:36No!
00:28:38Ow!
00:28:58Yeah?
00:29:10Yeah.
00:29:16So, Jack's inheritance is all set.
00:29:19But he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the proceeds to the Morrison deal.
00:29:23That's a problem.
00:29:25Hmm. It's the girl, isn't it?
00:29:28The waitress.
00:29:30You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.
00:29:32And I thought you had everything under control.
00:29:34No, I've done my part.
00:29:36That's the other way.
00:29:38And I thought you'd have your part under control.
00:29:42I have everything under control.
00:29:44Oh, really? Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian.
00:29:46You know, maybe I overestimated your sway over Jack.
00:29:50You haven't overestimated anything.
00:29:52I've just begun.
00:29:56I've got it.
00:30:09Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.
00:30:12I live here.
00:30:14Of course you do.
00:30:17Okay, thanks.
00:30:20Jack, darling, should we proceed to the study?
00:30:23Should we proceed to the study?
00:30:25We need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:27Yeah.
00:30:32Well, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:39Vivian?
00:30:42Remember Tokyo?
00:30:44That sake bar?
00:30:46I'm married.
00:30:49Oh, you know.
00:30:51I hadn't noticed.
00:30:53Uh-oh.
00:30:55You know that feeling?
00:30:57When you leave the house
00:30:59and you just feel like
00:31:01you've forgotten something?
00:31:11I forgot something.
00:31:14Maybe you can
00:31:17help me figure it out?
00:31:21Coffee?
00:31:24Oh, no thank you.
00:31:26Jack and I have much to catch up on.
00:31:29Oh, and Jack doesn't drink coffee.
00:31:32Do you, Jack?
00:31:34Actually, I've taken it up recently.
00:31:36I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it.
00:31:39And he just absolutely
00:31:41laps up
00:31:43every drop
00:31:45of my coffee.
00:31:48Isn't that right?
00:31:50Lily makes a great cup of coffee.
00:31:54Hmm.
00:31:57So.
00:32:00How's Vivian?
00:32:02Focus on your form.
00:32:04You know, I was just wondering
00:32:06how long the two of you...
00:32:08Ancient history.
00:32:10That's not what I heard.
00:32:12From who?
00:32:13Around.
00:32:15Tokyo gets brought up a lot.
00:32:17You've been talking to Warren.
00:32:19And you've been talking to Vivian.
00:32:22That's business.
00:32:24Everything is business with you, isn't it?
00:32:29But you know what?
00:32:32What's this?
00:32:35Some pretty big business
00:32:37that you haven't been sharing with me.
00:32:40I think Vivian wants some of it, too.
00:32:43But you know what?
00:32:46Maybe you should just keep your business to yourself.
00:32:51Sad.
00:32:52Watch your stance.
00:32:58I don't want to be lied to.
00:33:01I'm not lying, Lily.
00:33:05Don't break my heart.
00:33:08Yeah.
00:33:15I love you.
00:33:17I love you, too.
00:33:43Yeah, the sky is so gray today.
00:33:45What?
00:33:46Please act like you know me.
00:33:47There's someone following me.
00:33:48Oh my god, are you okay?
00:33:50Who's following you?
00:33:52That weirdo?
00:33:59Is he gone?
00:34:00I think he's gone.
00:34:10You sure?
00:34:16You like that?
00:34:21I think your technique could use some work.
00:34:24They got the dota rights.
00:34:28You sure that wasn't me?
00:34:46What?
00:34:52Of course.
00:34:53And I think the real challenge is market penetration
00:34:55and emerging economies.
00:34:57I'm sure Jax brought you up to speed on all of this.
00:35:01Um, actually, I...
00:35:03Tell me.
00:35:04What's your take on blockchain integration?
00:35:07I think...
00:35:10No comment.
00:35:13No comment?
00:35:15How surprising.
00:35:16Excuse me.
00:35:18Great thinking, Lily.
00:35:20All of our drinks could use a refill.
00:35:44Love you.
00:35:53But this thing isn't going to last forever, Jack.
00:35:56I don't know.
00:35:58I mean, what choice do you have?
00:36:00Clock's ticking, buddy.
00:36:02Unless you want to lose this deal forever.
00:36:06Lunch?
00:36:10I was just on my way out.
00:36:14Think about it, Jack.
00:36:23Hm.
00:36:24What was that about?
00:36:26Nothing.
00:36:27Just business.
00:36:28Just business.
00:36:29Of course.
00:36:31Lily, wait.
00:36:37What do you want, Jack?
00:36:53I'm taking you on a holiday.
00:36:55What?
00:36:56You have time for that?
00:36:59A lot of time.
00:37:02Just us?
00:37:04I know what I want.
00:37:09Oh, what about, um...
00:37:11What about Warren and the deal?
00:37:13They can wait.
00:37:17They're sure going to love it.
00:37:20There she is.
00:37:22What?
00:37:24That smile.
00:37:26It's the one you had when I first laid eyes on you.
00:37:29I'll never forget it.
00:37:31You know that I don't just, um...
00:37:33serve that dish to anyone, right?
00:37:35Really?
00:37:36Mm-hmm.
00:37:41I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Thorne.
00:37:44I've been told to relay that there's a problem back at the office.
00:37:47Timeline on the deal has moved up.
00:37:49Safe.
00:37:51Would you like me to cancel the trip, sir?
00:37:56Yeah.
00:37:58Good.
00:38:00Who sent the message?
00:38:02They didn't chase her.
00:38:08Lily, I'm sorry.
00:38:09Don't.
00:38:10Please.
00:38:11It's just business.
00:38:12It's business, yeah.
00:38:13I get it.
00:38:17I get it.
00:38:25Lily, I shouldn't, uh...
00:38:26Just shut up and...
00:38:28taste this.
00:38:38Mm.
00:38:39It's tasty.
00:38:40Incredible?
00:38:41Yeah.
00:38:42Yeah, I know.
00:38:43Mm.
00:38:47Jack?
00:38:48Mm-hmm?
00:38:49Do you want more?
00:38:51Um, after this one.
00:38:53No.
00:38:55Let the food...
00:38:57Jack.
00:38:59Talking about us.
00:39:06How long are we gonna keep on doing this?
00:39:18Oh, my God.
00:39:21What was that?
00:39:29Any enemies?
00:39:31Business rivals?
00:39:33No one comes to mind.
00:39:36Security cameras?
00:39:39Being installed as we speak.
00:39:42Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:44Sorry.
00:39:47That's what I saw.
00:39:52I'm ruined.
00:39:53You okay?
00:39:55Yeah.
00:40:14Yeah.
00:40:18This is so insane.
00:40:22It's probably just kids.
00:40:24Kids?
00:40:25Seriously?
00:40:27Can you keep your voice down?
00:40:29Oh, sorry.
00:40:31What, are you afraid that someone's gonna hear...
00:40:33about our perfect marriage?
00:40:36About our perfect marriage?
00:40:45What are you hiding from me?
00:40:50Hey.
00:40:52Hey, you know that secret room...
00:40:54that you did to Mommy last night?
00:40:58I found it.
00:41:01Yeah?
00:41:07Hey, at least it's honest.
00:41:13Do you wanna see it?
00:41:15Show me.
00:41:37Most people run.
00:41:39I'm not most people.
00:41:44So...
00:41:48this is what you're into?
00:41:50Among other things.
00:41:52And all of those...
00:41:55specific requirements?
00:41:58We're about to scare you off.
00:42:00I'm not scared of you.
00:42:02Specific requirements?
00:42:04We're about to scare you off.
00:42:06I don't scare you, son.
00:42:08I'm starting to get that.
00:42:15Show me.
00:42:17Are you sure?
00:42:19Are you?
00:42:32Okay.
00:42:59So...
00:43:02So...
00:43:08Sir, Miss Chase is here.
00:43:10She says it's urgent.
00:43:12Jack, the team is flying to Tokyo...
00:43:14and they need you there.
00:43:15Final deal points.
00:43:16Jack's leaving in 30.
00:43:18I packed your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs.
00:43:22Lily, wait.
00:43:25Just go.
00:43:32Okay.
00:43:59The way I can explain...
00:44:02Continue.
00:44:06Guess the business can't wait.
00:44:17This whole thing is...
00:44:19Let me get this straight.
00:44:21You sleep with him...
00:44:22and then you find a note from his ex.
00:44:24That's complicated.
00:44:26When isn't it with you?
00:44:28Look, maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little...
00:44:31A mistake?
00:44:32That you were right?
00:44:34Huh? Is that what you want to hear?
00:44:36No, I want you to be happy.
00:44:39And are you?
00:44:42I don't know what I am anymore.
00:44:44I mean, he paid for Mom's operation, so that's cool, but...
00:44:47I know.
00:44:48And the worst part is, I think I might actually be falling for...
00:44:57Lily?
00:44:58Stand back.
00:44:59What?
00:45:00Stand back, Megan.
00:45:05Okay, okay, okay.
00:45:07Lily!
00:45:12Get it out!
00:45:13Go, motherfucker!
00:45:15Oh my God!
00:45:16Fuck you!
00:45:18Come on, let's go.
00:45:25What was that?
00:45:27Lessons with Jack.
00:45:29Jack taught you that?
00:45:31Yeah, yeah.
00:45:33Dude's getting better by a minute.
00:45:35I know.
00:45:36Oh, man.
00:45:39You okay?
00:45:41Yeah.
00:45:43God, things were supposed to be so simple.
00:45:46Now what?
00:45:48I don't even know what's real anymore.
00:45:51Oh, honey.
00:45:53Come on.
00:45:59Come on.
00:46:20He always keeps the ledger on his desk.
00:46:29I know.
00:46:35Lauren, I've known you since college.
00:46:38How could you?
00:46:44Eleven months.
00:46:46Almost a year.
00:46:49I barely knew limits anymore.
00:47:00Lily, I need to tell you something.
00:47:03I'm all ears.
00:47:05It's about the deal.
00:47:07About Lauren, Vivian.
00:47:09Well, if it isn't the happy couple.
00:47:12Oh, great.
00:47:14The press.
00:47:25These aren't real.
00:47:27Oh, my sisters say they are very real.
00:47:30Story runs in 48 hours.
00:47:32Lily, this is what I was just about to tell you.
00:47:34I've been set up.
00:47:37Care to comment, Mr. Thorne?
00:47:41You know, it's funny.
00:47:43For a minute, I really believed.
00:47:46Lily, wait.
00:47:50They're not real.
00:47:52Tick tock, Mr. Thorne.
00:47:58Lily, wait.
00:48:01They're not real.
00:48:03You have to believe me.
00:48:05Like I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal?
00:48:08Like I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague?
00:48:14Like I believed that last night actually meant something.
00:48:17You did.
00:48:19Lily, what happened between us was real.
00:48:21The transaction.
00:48:23The transaction.
00:48:25What happened between us was real.
00:48:27The transaction.
00:48:29That's all any of this ever was.
00:48:31That's not true.
00:48:33And you know it.
00:48:35Do I?
00:48:37Because from where I'm standing,
00:48:39you got everything that you wanted.
00:48:41You got a wife when you needed one.
00:48:43And a body when you wanted one.
00:48:45Lily, that's not it.
00:48:47Tell me I'm wrong.
00:48:49Tell me that there's not something more going on here.
00:48:51With the business deal and your inheritance.
00:48:54Is there anything more to explain?
00:49:02That's what I thought.
00:49:06You're a terrible person.
00:49:10If you leave now, you violate the contract.
00:49:12You get nothing.
00:49:14I don't care.
00:49:18I never cared about any of that.
00:49:24I never cared about any of that.
00:49:38Hands up.
00:49:40Protect the face.
00:49:42No, don't.
00:49:44Go?
00:49:46No.
00:49:55Warren?
00:49:57Finally, look.
00:49:59About the Morrison deal.
00:50:01It's off.
00:50:03What do you mean it's off?
00:50:05All of it.
00:50:07The deal, the inheritance.
00:50:09I don't want any of it.
00:50:11Have you lost your freaking mind?
00:50:13I mean, everything that we've worked for.
00:50:15Actually, I think I found it.
00:50:24What?
00:50:48You can't just hide here forever.
00:50:50Watch me.
00:50:54Watch me.
00:51:03Hey.
00:51:05What happened to the girl who would never back down?
00:51:08The one who quit her job because she didn't want to compromise?
00:51:11She played.
00:51:13Did she?
00:51:18If that's Jack, I'm sure that's just my oxygenarian neighbor
00:51:21who's a total drama queen.
00:51:24Gladys?
00:51:27Gladys, is that you?
00:51:29Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:37Sir.
00:51:39Coffee.
00:51:41I did some digging around like you asked, sir.
00:51:44You might want to see this.
00:51:50What am I looking at here?
00:51:52Fire transfers, shell companies.
00:51:54All leading back to Mr. Block.
00:51:57Lord, I knew it.
00:51:59You might want to see these too, sir.
00:52:01They'll illuminate things even more.
00:52:07Son of a bitch.
00:52:09He's trying to steal the inheritance.
00:52:11He sure is.
00:52:13All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies.
00:52:16Although I suspect Ms. Chase's interests are not purely financial.
00:52:22Sir?
00:52:33Sir?
00:52:34They're threatening Lily and her sister.
00:52:36Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game.
00:52:39Give me everything you can about Warren.
00:52:41Every meeting, every call.
00:52:42Already compiled, sir.
00:52:44I had a feeling you might need this.
00:52:45Sir, what about the inheritance?
00:52:47Some things are worth more than money.
00:52:53Call me back.
00:53:02Calling back, Megan?
00:53:22Oh, my God.
00:53:49Thank God.
00:53:53I got us into this.
00:53:55I can get us out of this.
00:53:56Oh, I can do this.
00:53:57Oh, I can do this.
00:54:00Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.
00:54:05And I wouldn't put money on how well that's gonna go.
00:54:07If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:54:12Sign the papers.
00:54:14And this all goes away.
00:54:17Like those photos of you and me from that reporter suddenly went away.
00:54:23Hmm.
00:54:24Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:54:27Don't they?
00:54:28I always knew you were soft.
00:54:31But this?
00:54:32Throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef?
00:54:35He's not throwing it away.
00:54:38He's giving it to us.
00:54:40All we need is a signature, Jack.
00:54:44You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:47Always have.
00:54:50I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:53Hmm.
00:54:55Wait.
00:55:15Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:20Okay.
00:55:22Remember your training.
00:55:25Protect your face.
00:55:30Megan!
00:55:31Lily!
00:55:35Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:38Please, come on.
00:55:40Come on.
00:55:45Of course it's a trap.
00:55:48The question is...
00:55:51What are you going to do about it?
00:55:53Lily!
00:55:57I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.
00:56:00Room 115.
00:56:01Lauren's called the police.
00:56:03Already done.
00:56:04But sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:56:06She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:56:13No, no, no, no.
00:56:16Lauren, she's there.
00:56:18Lily's there.
00:56:23Hold on, Lily, hold on.
00:56:38Leave her alone!
00:56:40Shut up!
00:56:42Get away from my wife!
00:56:44Well, well.
00:56:46Our hero arrives.
00:56:49Don't do it, Jackie boy.
00:56:53I'm not some damsel in distress.
00:56:56That's my girl.
00:57:04Oh.
00:57:06I guess it is real love, huh?
00:57:15That's for my sister.
00:57:17You son of a bitch.
00:57:24Lily.
00:57:25About everything.
00:57:27The photos.
00:57:28Vivian.
00:57:29Now? Seriously?
00:57:31I love you.
00:57:33Not for any inheritance.
00:57:35Not for any deal.
00:57:37Just...
00:57:39you.
00:57:44I know.
00:57:54You, stay right there.
00:57:56Come on, cover me.
00:58:08What the hell?
00:58:11This isn't...
00:58:13Possible?
00:58:16And I wouldn't put money on how well that's gonna go.
00:58:19Sign the papers.
00:58:20Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:58:22That proves nothing.
00:58:24I think it might prove something.
00:58:26Yeah, and those photos that you planted?
00:58:28Maybe use better AI next time.
00:58:30You can't.
00:58:31Yes, they can.
00:58:33And you two are under arrest.
00:58:37You'll regret this, Jack.
00:58:39The inheritance, the...
00:58:40Are nothing compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:42You could have had it all, Jack.
00:58:46I do.
00:58:54Yes, thank you.
00:58:56Thanks.
00:59:00Now that's a story.
00:59:06Here to twist the knife?
00:59:09I'm here to get it right.
00:59:12Where did you...?
00:59:13Lawrence sends his regards.
00:59:15Seems your butler is a little armchair investigative journalist.
00:59:19So, no scandal piece?
00:59:21Oh, there's definitely a scan.
00:59:24But not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:30That's...
00:59:31actually accurate.
00:59:33I'm a reporter.
00:59:34Truth is kind of my thing.
00:59:37Though I must admit, I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.
00:59:41Yeah, neither did they.
00:59:44Story runs tomorrow.
00:59:46Catch you on the next scandal.
00:59:55What about the inheritance?
00:59:56You really think I care about any of that now?
01:00:03Just take me home.
01:00:06Yes, dear.
01:00:16Slut's coming up.
01:00:18Must be a new record.
01:00:21It is for me.
01:00:23Any regrets?
01:00:25Only one.
01:00:28That I didn't get your chef's special sooner.
01:00:31Could have saved us a lot of trouble.
01:00:33Yeah.
01:00:35Excuse me, sir. Miss Chen's article is out.
01:00:39How bad is it?
01:00:40Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.
01:00:43She's included the last bit you wanted put in.
01:00:57Jack Thorne announced plans.
01:01:00In a shocking turn of events,
01:01:01In a shocking turn of events,
01:01:03tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans
01:01:05to transform his inherited fortune
01:01:07into the city's largest culinary grant program.
01:01:11Surprised?
01:01:15But your inheritance is gone.
01:01:18My inheritance, yeah.
01:01:20But turns out selling a tech company can be quite profitable.
01:01:23You sold the company?
01:01:25Turns out some things are worth more than money.
01:01:32Come on.
01:01:35My turn.
01:01:36I don't know.
01:01:43Perfect, Julie and Danny.
01:01:44Keep it thin, okay? Just like that.
01:02:02This looks good on you.
01:02:04And who said there's no such thing as a happily ever after?
01:02:08Suckers.
01:02:09Can I get you your usual, sir?
01:02:12Depends.
01:02:14Did my wife make it?
01:02:16The very same wife that you married for business?
01:02:19Best business decision I ever made.
01:02:27Hang on.
01:02:32Voila.
01:02:37You're the best chef in town.
01:02:40You're only saying that because you're contractually obligated.
01:02:44I think that contract expired.
01:02:47Good thing I signed a new one.
01:02:56We are gathered here today
01:02:59We are gathered here today
01:03:01No more business deals this time.
01:03:03Just love.
01:03:04Good.
01:03:06Because I have some terms off my own.
01:03:09First.
01:03:11You have to eat everything I cook.
01:03:13Done.
01:03:15Second.
01:03:17No more locked rooms.
01:03:20Without me in it.
01:03:23Is that all?
01:03:25Third.
01:03:27You have to mean it this time.
01:03:29I meant it the first time.
01:03:31Just didn't know yet.
01:03:33The rings?
01:03:35Actually...
01:03:41Is that...
01:03:42Something old.
01:03:43Something new.
01:03:45Something borrowed.
01:03:46Something...
01:03:49No.
01:03:57For better or worse.
01:03:59For real this time.
01:04:02You make us the bride.
01:04:19So.
01:04:21Are you ready for your honeymoon?
01:04:24What are you...
01:04:28Lauren, tell me back.
01:04:34Mrs. Thorne, are you trying to negotiate new business terms?
01:04:39I don't know, Mr. Thorne.
01:04:44Can you handle them?
01:04:46I thought this wasn't about business anymore.
01:04:50How about you just shut up?
01:04:52And kiss your wife?
01:04:57No.
