Short filmTranscript
00:00:00Working under this much stress for a huge company, it's all for you, Mom.
00:00:08You nervous about your first day?
00:00:11A little bit, but thank you for getting me the job.
00:00:14Of course.
00:00:15It's been crazy.
00:00:17The CEO, Sebastian Armstrong, is working a huge merger.
00:00:20He could be a two-time billionaire by the end of this deal.
00:00:23But isn't he already the richest man in the world?
00:00:25The youngest richest man in the world.
00:00:30I wonder if he remembers me from college.
00:00:46You're going to have to sacrifice a lot of late nights, and you're going to make enemies
00:00:49on your way to the top.
00:01:04Perfume is intoxicating.
00:01:05Sorry.
00:01:06What was I saying?
00:01:07Oh, my God.
00:01:14What is that wretched smell?
00:01:17Maybe that's my perfume.
00:01:19That's it.
00:01:20It's God-awful.
00:01:21Deliveries go downstairs, sweetie.
00:01:23Actually, I am Mr. Armstrong's new receptionist.
00:01:26I used to have that job.
00:01:28Back then, they used to hire class.
00:01:30I guess now they're willing to hire anyone off the street.
00:01:32Sorry to spit the truth, bitch, but you don't last a minute here.
00:01:38Oops.
00:01:39You should probably clean that up, or I'll just tell them that you did it.
00:01:48Okay.
00:01:52My job is to answer phone calls and keep Mr. Sebastian's schedule.
00:01:57It's good health insurance.
00:01:59It'll pay for my mom's medical bills, and it'll-
00:02:07Get out of my way, loser.
00:02:08My shirt.
00:02:09I told you.
00:02:10Wouldn't last a day here.
00:02:12Who is that?
00:02:13That is Sebastian's wife.
00:02:16His wife?
00:02:18Be careful around her.
00:02:19She's a viper.
00:02:20You never know.
00:02:21She's only with him for his money.
00:02:31Sebastian Armstrong, we're going out tonight.
00:02:36Ruby, I have already told you that I want a divorce.
00:02:41And you need to sign these papers.
00:02:44Hmm.
00:02:53Honey, we're so good together.
00:02:58Our love burns white hot.
00:03:00Remember when we used to make love in the office executive shower?
00:03:04Ruby, we are over.
00:03:07Because you have made it abundantly clear
00:03:10that all you've ever been after is my money.
00:03:13Especially after I caught you stealing.
00:03:16Now I have a business meeting today with Robert Sanchez
00:03:18and it is the largest business deal that I have ever had.
00:03:22Well, nobody denies Ruby Cromwell.
00:03:28Get up. You need to get out.
00:03:30Okay, I'm all sweaty from my workout. I need to take a shower, so go.
00:03:33Why don't I join? I mean, I've seen your six-pack abs before.
00:03:41You need to go. Now.
00:03:44Fine.
00:03:56Hey, thrift shop girl.
00:03:58Sebastian needs to see you in his office.
00:04:00Head to the door that says executive.
00:04:03Yeah, of course.
00:04:11Ruby, I thought I told you to...
00:04:13I am so sorry.
00:04:24I'm so sorry, Mr. Sebastian. Armstrong. Mr. Armstrong.
00:04:29It's okay.
00:04:31Don't worry about it.
00:04:34Okay.
00:04:43I can't believe I just saw Mr. Sebastian's Armstrong.
00:04:49I'm so embarrassed.
00:04:55Who am I fooling? I don't belong here.
00:04:57I don't belong here.
00:04:59I'm eating a panini I made with a panini maker from a thrift store.
00:05:10The terms of this merger are favorable to both sides.
00:05:14Which means we're not even close to getting a deal done.
00:05:16Where should I set these down?
00:05:18I don't care. Anywhere.
00:05:20Oh, my God.
00:05:22I am so sorry.
00:05:24Get out of here.
00:05:26You're fired. Clear out your desk.
00:05:29You can't talk to your employee like that.
00:05:32I don't tell you how to run your company.
00:05:34She could sue you for wrongful termination.
00:05:37We can't do a merger with a company like that.
00:05:40Come to your senses.
00:05:43I'm sorry. Have we met before?
00:05:46No.
00:05:47I'm sorry. Have we met before?
00:05:49Not funny.
00:05:51Look, why don't we start over?
00:05:53I'm Sebastian Armstrong. Would you like a job at my multi-billion dollar company?
00:05:56I don't think so.
00:05:58What?
00:06:00Well, I don't want to work for a boss that's an asshole.
00:06:03He doesn't even know how to apologize.
00:06:06No one's ever talked to me that way.
00:06:10That takes guts.
00:06:12And I like that.
00:06:14We need people like you at this company that stand up for themselves.
00:06:18Well, I'm sorry if I'm overly honest.
00:06:21I'm just tired of eating my grilled cheese panini in the bathroom.
00:06:26Wow, I haven't laughed like that in a long time. I needed that.
00:06:30I'm sorry that I snapped like that in the office.
00:06:33This merger's just been beyond stressful.
00:06:37Will you accept my humblest apologies?
00:06:44Of course.
00:06:47And I'm sorry for spilling coffee on your very expensive shirt.
00:06:55Looks like we're both in need of some new digs.
00:06:58Tell you what, why don't you go down to Latour Boutique and get yourself a new outfit?
00:07:03I can't afford Latour Boutique.
00:07:06You can with this.
00:07:08No, I can't take that.
00:07:10I insist. Go down, get yourself a new outfit, and come back tomorrow ready to work.
00:07:25Anyway, that was just the worst date.
00:07:29Did you know, when I was in college, Sebastian came to my school
00:07:36and gave a young entrepreneur lecture.
00:07:40He was so charming.
00:07:43And knowledgeable.
00:07:45Uh-oh.
00:07:47Yeah, I think you might be in love.
00:07:52Whatever.
00:07:54Seriously, you should ride his baloney pony.
00:07:58Might land you that big promotion.
00:08:00I am not the ruthless type. Plus, I don't think he'd be into it.
00:08:03Man at his level is always into that.
00:08:06I think he's different.
00:08:08Men are all the same.
00:08:10Oh, coming from someone who swipes right on everyone.
00:08:13Alright, alright.
00:08:18Hello?
00:08:22What do you mean?
00:08:25Okay. I'll be there.
00:08:29Everything okay?
00:08:30Everything okay?
00:08:32No. My mom has cancer.
00:08:36I'm so sorry.
00:08:38Thank you. She's doing better and has one treatment to go, but it is expensive.
00:08:45That's why I really need to keep this job.
00:08:50Of course.
00:08:52Hi! How dare you serve me with divorce papers in public?
00:08:56You embarrass me in front of all the ladies at the salon.
00:09:00Oh, God.
00:09:02I thought we were going to work this out.
00:09:04We're not going to work this out. Just sign the papers.
00:09:07No! I want to go over every single line of this.
00:09:11My mother gave us that chandelier in the rumpus room. It's mine.
00:09:15That's fine. What else?
00:09:16There's a lot else.
00:09:18God.
00:09:20Vanessa, can you please move my 12 o'clock appointment to the end of the day?
00:09:24And also, can you bring us some lunch? Thank you.
00:09:27Yes, Sebastian.
00:09:29I mean, Mr. Sebastian.
00:09:31I mean, Mr. Armstrong.
00:09:36Getting real chummy with the help.
00:09:40She works for me.
00:09:41Oh, does she?
00:09:43Remember when these used to work for you?
00:09:48Can we just keep this professional, please?
00:09:51I used to be a receptionist.
00:09:53Don't think this two-bit whore can come in and replace me.
00:09:56I'm class elegant. She's homeless shelter.
00:09:59Here you are, sir.
00:10:01Thank you, Vanessa.
00:10:05Thank you, receptionist girl. That'll be all.
00:10:08Thank you, receptionist girl. That'll be all.
00:10:14Oopsies. Can you get that?
00:10:18Sure.
00:10:29Oh my gosh. I'm sorry. I'm such a klutz.
00:10:37Sit down.
00:10:39We are going to go over every single line of this.
00:10:42And you know what? We're actually going to add some clauses there.
00:10:44I'd like a house in the Hamptons. I want a new cappuccino machine.
00:10:47I want a cashmere sweater. We are going in on this.
00:10:50Or I'm not signing.
00:10:52Okay. Have her bring a new plate in.
00:10:59Hey, I...
00:11:01Sorry, you go.
00:11:03I just wanted to apologize for Ruby's clumsiness.
00:11:07You know, divorces can be hard.
00:11:09I needed to get this dry-cleaned anyway.
00:11:11Oh, you should put that on the company account.
00:11:14And I want to let you know that you're doing a really good job here.
00:11:17Thank you, Mr. Armstrong.
00:11:19Yeah, of course.
00:11:23I think I know where I know you from.
00:11:26You do?
00:11:28Yes, Va Tech. I gave a lecture there a couple years ago.
00:11:31I can't believe you remember that.
00:11:33Yeah. Chantel perfume number five. Is that it?
00:11:37You know, I thought about finding you after that lecture
00:11:40and going to the dorms and banging on some doors.
00:11:43Well, I wish you did.
00:11:45But it might have been frowned upon.
00:11:48Being a lecturer.
00:11:50Maybe some sort of power imbalance.
00:11:53Yeah, I don't think the university would have appreciated me taking advantage of my position.
00:11:59Interesting.
00:12:01I always thought you took risks.
00:12:07Hey, boss.
00:12:09Congrats on the merger.
00:12:11Thank you. Yeah, I couldn't have done it with everybody in this room.
00:12:14But, uh, it's not over yet.
00:12:16But we'll get there soon. Thank you.
00:12:208 p.m. tonight.
00:12:32He wants me to meet him at the fanciest hotel in the city?
00:12:37Yeah.
00:13:07Wow.
00:13:27Wow.
00:13:29That dress fits you perfectly.
00:13:31How did you know my size?
00:13:34My grandfather used to work at a carnival.
00:13:37I like your weight, too, but I'd rather just buy a dress for you.
00:13:43This room must have cost a fortune.
00:13:46Yeah, they tend to comp the room when you own the hotel.
00:13:55I'm used to my wine coming in a box.
00:13:59You are one of a kind and a supporter.
00:14:03No one has ever said that to me, Sebastian Armstrong.
00:14:07I'm sorry.
00:14:37I'm sorry.
00:15:078 p.m. tonight.
00:15:388 p.m. tonight.
00:15:44I hope you're not too good for box wine, though.
00:15:47Oh, I am never too good for box wine.
00:15:50Oh, gosh.
00:15:52This has been such a whirlwind.
00:15:54I am falling so hard.
00:15:57Just be careful, honey.
00:16:00I know.
00:16:02I'm trying to take it slow.
00:16:04I mean, that merger is heating up.
00:16:06All the stockholders in the company have their eye on him right now.
00:16:09They might be looking to make it a hostile takeover.
00:16:12You're the only person I've told.
00:16:14We both decided to be discreet.
00:16:16The last thing he needs is media attention.
00:16:18It's also the last thing you need with your mom.
00:16:21How is Teresa doing?
00:16:22Better.
00:16:23They say she has one more treatment and hopefully she'll be in remission.
00:16:26That's great news.
00:16:28I really need to keep this job.
00:16:35What, are you just going to stand there or are we going to get to work?
00:16:39Do you have any idea what you're doing?
00:16:41We're getting so close to finalizing this merger.
00:16:44Of course I know what I'm doing.
00:16:45I don't know.
00:17:04Are you spying on me?
00:17:07Not me.
00:17:09But somebody is.
00:17:11Those came across my desk earlier today.
00:17:13And I had to pay a pretty good penny to keep them out of the press.
00:17:17I'm not a married man.
00:17:19I can date somebody.
00:17:21Your divorce with Ruby isn't final.
00:17:23She won't sign the papers, Robert.
00:17:25Any way you cut it, Sebastian, it can be a problem.
00:17:28The board is wary of getting into business with another billionaire playboy.
00:17:33They like stability.
00:17:35Especially after that woman in Gotham went rogue.
00:17:38Maybe it would help to be a happily married man.
00:17:41I don't think that exists.
00:17:44I got news for you, pal.
00:17:46It does.
00:17:4835 years.
00:17:55I wish I could tell the world how I feel about her.
00:17:59But the world finding out about us during my divorce would hurt the merger.
00:18:06We are playing with fire, but I care about him so much.
00:18:09I just can't jeopardize anything.
00:18:20Well, well, well.
00:18:22What do we have here?
00:18:25Excuse me?
00:18:27I'm Ambardi. Bruno Ambardi.
00:18:29Hi, I'm Vanessa.
00:18:31Mr. Armstrong's new assistant.
00:18:33We have so much in common.
00:18:35I'm also new at Armstrong Enterprises.
00:18:36I'm here to dictate the merger.
00:18:38But why talk about work while at work when we can talk about play while we play?
00:18:43What?
00:18:45Happy hour. Teenies only.
00:18:47Teenies?
00:18:49Martinis. Teenies to bikinis.
00:18:52Oh, that's funny.
00:18:55Yeah.
00:18:57What do you say we get out of these wet clothes and into a dry martini?
00:19:03Are all your pickup lines booked?
00:19:04Are all your pickup lines martini-based?
00:19:07Yeah.
00:19:11We need to talk.
00:19:14Ruby, I didn't see you on my schedule.
00:19:17Oh, okay. I'm pretty sure I don't need to be on your schedule because I'm your wife.
00:19:21Ex-wife.
00:19:23What do you need? What's the problem?
00:19:25I'm still unhappy with the divorce terms.
00:19:28How can you be unhappy? It's fair. I paid you more than half.
00:19:32I still want you.
00:19:35No baby voice, Ruby. Okay, we're through.
00:19:39Fine. Clearly you don't want me anymore.
00:19:42But I do know that you want me to sign before the merger.
00:19:45The merger has nothing to do with you.
00:19:47What if I wanted to have something to do with me?
00:19:50You are entitled to none of that.
00:19:52We'll see about that.
00:19:54You need to get out of here before I call security.
00:19:57You wouldn't dare.
00:20:02You need to go. Come on. Out the door.
00:20:14Hey there.
00:20:16Sorry. I'm wiped.
00:20:18I know that you overheard Ruby yelling at me.
00:20:22It's none of my business.
00:20:24It's over between her and I.
00:20:26She does not think so.
00:20:28So, would you like to have dinner with me?
00:20:32I'm not really hungry.
00:20:35You sure about that?
00:20:40I don't think it's a good idea.
00:20:42Look, I know that we've both been under a lot of stress.
00:20:46We can just keep it simple.
00:20:48Have some good food, take our mind off things. No pressure.
00:20:51He's right. We're both under a lot of stress.
00:20:54But I can't put my stress on him.
00:20:55So, dinner?
00:20:57Keep it simple.
00:20:59Keep it simple.
00:21:10This is simple.
00:21:13You're worth it.
00:21:17I'm worried about the merger.
00:21:23You too.
00:21:25I'm worried about you closing it.
00:21:27I'm worried about us.
00:21:29Look, it's almost a done deal.
00:21:31All eyes are on you.
00:21:33With this and your divorce,
00:21:35don't you worry that this will make the company think you're unfit?
00:21:37Unfit for what?
00:21:39The merger is just money.
00:21:41And I have money, but I don't have love.
00:21:45And I want to be with you.
00:21:49I don't know.
00:21:52Why are you so hesitant?
00:21:53I don't know if I can tell him.
00:21:57What's going on?
00:21:59My mom is...
00:22:02cancer.
00:22:04She has cancer.
00:22:06And I just need to focus on work right now
00:22:08because her bills are mounting up.
00:22:10You know I can take care of that for you.
00:22:12No, Sebastian, that's not why I'm telling you.
00:22:14I don't want your charity.
00:22:16My mom always taught me to earn everything I get.
00:22:18Well, she sounds like a strong woman.
00:22:21She's the strongest woman I know.
00:22:23I admire you.
00:22:25I don't need to be admired.
00:22:27I need to be understood.
00:22:30Understood.
00:22:33I think we should slow down a little.
00:22:35What are you talking about?
00:22:37Maybe just be friends.
00:22:40I don't think I could just be friends with you.
00:22:43I know that.
00:22:44I don't think I could just be friends with you.
00:22:47I don't think I can be anything more.
00:23:01I see you.
00:23:03What?
00:23:05I see you.
00:23:07You're a rising star of this company.
00:23:09I am just trying to work here.
00:23:11I don't need any distractions.
00:23:12Let me guess.
00:23:14Your job's a joke. You're broke.
00:23:16Your love life's the OA.
00:23:18It's like you're always stuck in second gear.
00:23:20It hasn't been your day, your week, your month,
00:23:23or even your year.
00:23:28No.
00:23:30Babe, come on.
00:23:35Release the attention.
00:23:36Release the attention.
00:23:42Maybe this is for the better.
00:23:44I have to get Sebastian to end this.
00:23:46This is the only way.
00:23:48Uh, yeah.
00:23:50That's the spot.
00:23:52That's what I'm talking about, girl.
00:24:04Oh, sorry, Mr. Sebastian.
00:24:06Hey, Sebastian, don't worry.
00:24:08We're off the clock.
00:24:14This is hot.
00:24:16Don't ever touch me again.
00:24:24Playing hard to get? I like that.
00:24:27Bruno likey.
00:24:31You're a big star. You got this.
00:24:33She's yours.
00:24:34Two can play this game.
00:24:37I'll be there for you.
00:24:44Hey.
00:24:46I'm sorry about...
00:24:48There's nothing to be sorry about.
00:24:50We're both adults. You don't owe me anything.
00:24:52He was just being...
00:24:54I don't care about him.
00:24:56I just...
00:24:58I don't know. I thought that you were different.
00:25:00I... I have to let this happen.
00:25:02You know what? I think you're right.
00:25:04I think that we should just be friends.
00:25:07No.
00:25:09More like work colleagues.
00:25:14Because I had hoped that we were going to build something together.
00:25:18But my life, my business wasn't built off hope.
00:25:20It was built off hard work.
00:25:22Sebastian...
00:25:24No, and I was blinded by what I thought was such an amazing person.
00:25:29But the reality is you're just like everyone else.
00:25:31You're just after my money.
00:25:33Sebastian, I don't...
00:25:43How about we finish where we started?
00:25:45Get off.
00:25:47What about all that break room talk?
00:25:49I thought I told you never touch me again.
00:25:51Let's pretend I didn't hear that.
00:25:53Get off me. Bruno, I'm not interested.
00:25:55I don't think you got interested.
00:25:57Get off.
00:25:59Get off.
00:26:05You'll regret this.
00:26:11Tell me everything.
00:26:14It was terrible what I did, but this merger was so important to Sebastian.
00:26:19I couldn't risk losing it for him.
00:26:21You were never going to lose it for him.
00:26:23I can't be a distraction to him.
00:26:25Maybe he needs a distraction.
00:26:27What did you do?
00:26:30I almost kissed Bruno.
00:26:33The aggressive guy?
00:26:35I only did it to make Sebastian forget about me so he could think about the merger.
00:26:39I hope you know what you're doing.
00:26:45I wish we had met in college.
00:26:48Things would be so different.
00:26:51Kate, I don't know how to fix this.
00:26:53Girl, you can't fix being in love.
00:26:59What do you think Sebastian's doing right now?
00:27:08What is wrong with you?
00:27:10I mean, you have everything.
00:27:12And even after this merger, you'll have even more.
00:27:15You can have any woman you desire.
00:27:17Boy, don't ask if I'm humble.
00:27:24You'd give it all up and be with her, wouldn't you?
00:27:29Well, if you love her, then you should just go to her.
00:27:35What do you have to drink in this dump?
00:27:37Ruby, what are you doing here?
00:27:40Come in.
00:27:42I'm sorry.
00:27:43I was a cranky bitch earlier.
00:27:45What are you doing here?
00:27:47Well, things got a little heated earlier.
00:27:49And I thought I should come make amends.
00:27:53Is it me?
00:27:57Is it hot in here?
00:28:14I've missed you.
00:28:16We were so good together.
00:28:43Let me take you to the bedroom.
00:28:51No, no, hey, I'm sorry.
00:28:53I can't do this.
00:28:56Look, we had something in the past, Ruby.
00:29:00Here, just put this on.
00:29:03Is this about that bitch?
00:29:06Don't call her that.
00:29:08You'll regret this, Sebastian Armstrong.
00:29:14No.
00:29:27Get off of me.
00:29:31Hey, hey, get off of me!
00:29:36Hey, hey, hey, are you okay?
00:29:38What is that?
00:29:40He must have dropped it.
00:29:45My God, somebody's been spying on us.
00:29:55Thanks for the statement, ma'am.
00:29:57We'll keep an eye out for the perp.
00:29:59In the meantime, try to get some rest.
00:30:02Good night.
00:30:10Yeah, of course.
00:30:13How did you know where I lived?
00:30:16I looked your address up at work.
00:30:19I was coming over to apologize.
00:30:21About what?
00:30:23Look, I was a jerk earlier, and I overreacted.
00:30:26It's okay.
00:30:28Vanessa.
00:30:31People in my position have a very hard time with dating.
00:30:33Everyone only seems to want one thing from me,
00:30:36and that's why I have to be protective.
00:30:38I've been blinded by love before.
00:30:40Ruby?
00:30:42That obvious, huh?
00:30:44She's, um—
00:30:46Bitch?
00:30:48Yeah.
00:30:50And she also could put this hold on people.
00:30:52And I didn't realize it until much later that she's just a gold digger.
00:30:55And she never loved me.
00:30:57She only loved my bank account.
00:30:59And that's why I tend to be defensive.
00:31:00Sebastian, maybe it's just not the right time for us.
00:31:04You have this merger.
00:31:06I don't want you to lose sight of it.
00:31:10And you have your mother.
00:31:12How's she doing?
00:31:14She has her last treatment coming up,
00:31:16so we're hopeful.
00:31:18Yeah.
00:31:20She knows that I put off my career goals to take care of her.
00:31:24And she carries that guilt.
00:31:27The other day, she said that sometimes she wished she had died,
00:31:33so I could live.
00:31:36She's a strong woman, just like you.
00:31:38Look, I appreciate your generosity,
00:31:41but as of now, all I'm asking is that we remain boss and secretary.
00:31:50Deal?
00:31:53Deal.
00:31:54Under one condition.
00:31:56What is it?
00:31:59You replace this.
00:32:03Sure.
00:32:05You still have my black Amex card?
00:32:07I never used it.
00:32:09Okay.
00:32:11Well, you need to go down to La Tour Boutique
00:32:13and get yourself another cocktail dress.
00:32:15I'm not going to do that.
00:32:18Well, you need to,
00:32:20because I'm not going to let you down.
00:32:22Well, you need to,
00:32:24because I need you to attend a dinner with me.
00:32:27No dates.
00:32:29No, no, it's not a date.
00:32:31Personal assistant, strictly business.
00:32:33You feed me the names of people that I should know.
00:32:36It's boring, but the food is good.
00:32:39So what do you say?
00:32:41Deal?
00:32:43That's my one condition.
00:32:45You really are a good negotiator.
00:32:46Deal?
00:32:51You should probably go.
00:32:55Okay.
00:33:05Can I help you?
00:33:07Yes, yes, I am looking for a dress.
00:33:09Looks like you need a whole new wardrobe.
00:33:11Oh, probably.
00:33:13Sorry, we don't have anything
00:33:15in the hobo casual collection.
00:33:17Oh, I know, I know.
00:33:19I don't usually shop at places like this,
00:33:21but I actually walk by here all the time
00:33:23and stare at that dress in the window.
00:33:26Not to cut you off, I'm pretty busy here
00:33:28and we only serve to high-end clients.
00:33:33Okay.
00:33:36Maybe I'm in the wrong store.
00:33:38Maybe you are.
00:33:40I should probably go.
00:33:43No, wait just a minute.
00:33:45What is going on here?
00:33:47I don't belong here.
00:33:49Of course you do.
00:33:51Mr. Sebastian Armstrong, welcome.
00:33:53You weren't very welcoming to my friend here.
00:33:55I didn't know she was...
00:33:57That shouldn't matter.
00:33:59You don't have to do this.
00:34:01Yes, I do.
00:34:03You should treat everyone
00:34:05who walks through that door with respect.
00:34:07I'm so sorry, Mr. Armstrong.
00:34:09I'm really sorry.
00:34:10I have those same sneakers that you're wearing.
00:34:12I love them.
00:34:14Also that dress in the window, I love it too.
00:34:16But I'm jealous because I know
00:34:18it'll look way better on you.
00:34:20Plus I have at least food.
00:34:22I'm oversharing.
00:34:24Just wrap up the dress.
00:34:26We have a big event to attend to tonight.
00:34:41Sorry, I know that this is a lot.
00:34:43I don't want to let you down.
00:34:45You won't.
00:34:47Just stick with me.
00:34:49I have some cocktail hour negotiating.
00:34:54Oh, God.
00:34:56I didn't realize they let trash in here.
00:34:58Ruby, this isn't the time or the place.
00:35:00Sebastian, you haven't answered
00:35:02any of my phone calls.
00:35:04Our divorce terms are unacceptable.
00:35:06Sorry, Ms. Como,
00:35:08but Sebastian is about to give his speech.
00:35:10I'm sorry?
00:35:12Who the fuck are you?
00:35:14This is a conversation
00:35:16between my husband and I.
00:35:18You mean your ex-husband.
00:35:22Oh!
00:35:27Oh, no, I'm so sorry.
00:35:29I'm such a klutz.
00:35:35And now, ladies and gentlemen,
00:35:37may we present
00:35:38Mr. Sebastian Armstrong!
00:35:44I think it's about time we got legal involved
00:35:46to talk about these terms and details.
00:35:48Before it goes to legal,
00:35:50should I have my guys look at it?
00:35:52Your guys?
00:35:54Just keep taking notes.
00:35:56You're new here,
00:35:58so maybe you can learn a thing or two about negotiating.
00:36:00Pretty sure I could teach you a thing or two.
00:36:05Thank you, Vanessa.
00:36:08Let me know if you need anything else.
00:36:10I need some of that.
00:36:12Damn, she's hot.
00:36:14Nothing wrong with
00:36:16dipping the pen in the company ink,
00:36:18am I right, boys?
00:36:20I didn't know that you two were an item.
00:36:22There's a lot you don't know about me, Seb.
00:36:24It's Mr. Armstrong.
00:36:26Oh, so formal.
00:36:28This company needed a little joke like me?
00:36:31Guys, this isn't a pissing contest.
00:36:34Yeah, I know.
00:36:36Because I already got the prize.
00:36:38So, you are dating.
00:36:41I mean, if you call getting freaky
00:36:43in a two-star hotel dating.
00:36:45Come on, keep it classy.
00:36:47You won't be doing anything classy tonight.
00:36:50Respect the workplace.
00:36:52Hey, chill.
00:36:54You need money like us.
00:36:56Cheap sluts like Vanessa are a dime a dozen.
00:37:01Stop. Stop.
00:37:05You're done.
00:37:06Get out of here. Pack your shit up.
00:37:08We don't do sexual harassment at this company.
00:37:10Okay, big boss man.
00:37:12I'll leave.
00:37:14But you're gonna regret this.
00:37:16You have no idea who I am
00:37:18and what I'm capable of.
00:37:20Just leave, son. It's over.
00:37:25Don't worry, Sebastian.
00:37:27I got your back.
00:37:29Back in my day,
00:37:31guys like him would have gotten it much worse.
00:37:33This won't affect our negotiations at all.
00:37:36I'm gonna be rid of the bad energy in the room.
00:37:43Oh, my God.
00:37:52Vanessa, what's wrong?
00:37:54Someone vandalized my car.
00:37:56What? Are you okay?
00:38:02Stop. There.
00:38:07I can't see their faces.
00:38:09They're wearing masks.
00:38:11The timestamp says it's from this afternoon,
00:38:13so it can't be...
00:38:15Bruno.
00:38:17He was in my office at that time.
00:38:19I'll send this to the authorities.
00:38:21I'm scared.
00:38:26I'll protect you.
00:38:33Oh, there's my sweet daughter.
00:38:34Hi, Doc. How's my mom doing?
00:38:36Hi, Vanessa.
00:38:38Your mother is doing exceptionally well.
00:38:40We couldn't be happier with her results.
00:38:42And as you know, the entire staff loves her.
00:38:45Just trying to make the best of it.
00:38:47Hopefully, this will be her last treatment
00:38:49and send her cancer into remission.
00:38:51The only sad thing is
00:38:53Ms. Porter won't be brightening up
00:38:55our oncology ward anymore.
00:38:57Stop.
00:38:59I'll leave you two.
00:39:00How are you, honey?
00:39:02I'm good.
00:39:04Work's really busy.
00:39:06Oh, well, you always manage
00:39:08to keep a handle on everything.
00:39:10I just can't wait to get out of here.
00:39:12Food sucks.
00:39:14Are you okay?
00:39:16You seem a bit distracted.
00:39:18I have to tell you something, Mom.
00:39:20I don't want you to worry.
00:39:22Well, I'm going to worry
00:39:24whether you tell me or not.
00:39:26I think I have a stalker.
00:39:28What?
00:39:30When I got out of the car,
00:39:32they wrote a bad word.
00:39:34A magic marker.
00:39:36Well, maybe some vinegar or something
00:39:38will help get that off.
00:39:40I know, Mom.
00:39:42I think it was somehow connected
00:39:44to this guy at work.
00:39:46This guy at work, Bruno Lombardi,
00:39:48he has been all over me
00:39:50and is starting to worry me out.
00:39:52You said Bruno Lombardi?
00:39:54John Lombardi's son?
00:39:56John Lombardi runs a crime family.
00:39:58Yes.
00:40:00And he's alone.
00:40:02A crime family?
00:40:04Yeah.
00:40:06Your uncle had some run-in with them years ago.
00:40:08They're thugs.
00:40:10And if Bruno is anything like his father,
00:40:12you want to be swiping left,
00:40:14like the kids say.
00:40:16I think he got fired today.
00:40:18What if he blames me for everything?
00:40:20Kids today,
00:40:22they always want to blame somebody else
00:40:24for their issues.
00:40:26They can't take responsibility.
00:40:28But not my baby girl.
00:40:30Human trafficking?
00:40:32Apparently he's still running
00:40:34the crime family from prison.
00:40:36And he's grooming Bruno to take over.
00:40:39They've got some troubles going on,
00:40:41so honey, please be careful.
00:40:43I have to warn Sebastian.
00:40:45I have to go, Mom.
00:40:47I love you.
00:41:01You need a replacement for the whore-mobile.
00:41:04No, I can't accept this.
00:41:06You have to.
00:41:08I really can't.
00:41:10Then why not?
00:41:12Sebastian,
00:41:14I'm worried.
00:41:16I found out that Bruno
00:41:18has ties to the mafia.
00:41:20No, our HR fully vetted him.
00:41:22I'm sure there's ways of skirting that.
00:41:24Word is, he's being groomed
00:41:26to become a cop.
00:41:27I'm not skirting that.
00:41:29Word is, he's being groomed
00:41:31to become head of the crime family.
00:41:33Then why would he want a job here?
00:41:35I don't know. He could be dangerous.
00:41:37Look, you don't need to worry about that anymore.
00:41:39Because I fired him.
00:41:41That's why I'm worried.
00:41:43Look, I have the best security
00:41:45that money can buy.
00:41:47We don't need to be intimidated
00:41:49by people like Bruno.
00:41:51And we need to focus on
00:41:53the good that we can do.
00:41:55And speaking of, I have a charity event
00:41:57that I'd like you to attend.
00:41:59Charity?
00:42:01Yes, for cancer research.
00:42:03I would love to.
00:42:05But I don't know.
00:42:07Look, somebody just dropped out last minute.
00:42:09You'd be doing me a big, big favor.
00:42:11It's at the Biltmore Ballroom,
00:42:136 p.m. tonight.
00:42:17One condition.
00:42:19Okay. What?
00:42:23You take the car back.
00:42:27See you tonight.
00:42:32Damn.
00:42:34He is a good negotiator.
00:42:46You must be the new model.
00:42:49You're on stage on 5.
00:42:51On stage?

00:42:57It's for dates.
00:42:59No, no, no, no.
00:43:01I can't do this.
00:43:03Are you kidding?
00:43:05This is gonna be fun.
00:43:07And it's for a good cause, girl.
00:43:09You wouldn't mind a man

00:45:13We have $600,000 over there.
00:45:15$700,000.
00:45:17We got seven over here.
00:45:19$800,000.
00:45:21$800,000.
00:45:23$1 million.
00:45:25$1 million.
00:45:27Sir, wow, what an amazing finale.
00:45:30Any other bids?
00:45:32Going once.
00:45:34Going twice.
00:45:36And sold to that gentleman over there
00:45:39for $1 million.
00:45:41What an amazing finale.
00:45:43Beating the previous record of...
00:45:45What's her name?
00:45:47Um, anyway, sir,
00:45:49please come up and claim your prize.
00:45:52This is going to be fun.
00:45:56You cannot go out on that date.
00:45:58It could be dangerous.
00:46:00I don't have a choice.
00:46:02You always have a choice.
00:46:04It's in the next room.
00:46:06It's in a controlled space.
00:46:08Why are you doing this?
00:46:10Because he wants me to back out.
00:46:12He wants to make you look bad.
00:46:14I'm doing this for the charity.
00:46:16It's just dinner in public.
00:46:18It'll be fine.
00:46:20Okay.
00:46:22I trust you.
00:46:23I also want to see what Bruno's up to.
00:46:26What's his game plan?
00:46:32You know, for a winning bet of $1 million,
00:46:34you'd think they'd serve better.
00:46:37I'd rather be home
00:46:39drinking my wine from a box.
00:46:41We have so much in common.
00:46:44I'd rather be at your home, too.
00:46:46What do you want from me?
00:46:48What are you talking about, baby?
00:46:50I just want to get to know you.
00:46:52Oh, I have been very clear.
00:46:55I am not interested.
00:46:58Don't you know who I am?
00:47:00Oh, I know who you think you are.
00:47:04I paid a lot of money for this date.
00:47:06You make a scene
00:47:08and I can make things very difficult
00:47:10for you and your little boyfriend.
00:47:15You know,
00:47:17this wine ain't that bad.
00:47:18This wine ain't that bad.
00:47:25Where are you going?
00:47:27The date ain't over yet, sweetheart.
00:47:29Can't a girl use the restroom?
00:47:42Stop playing games, babe.
00:47:44We know what that $1 million bought me.
00:47:45We know what that $1 million bought me.
00:47:52I'm good, everybody. I'm good.
00:47:58Oh.
00:48:08Knock, knock.
00:48:10Hey, how was the date?
00:48:13And who is this from?
00:48:15From Bruno, with all my love.
00:48:17Thanks for the magical night.
00:48:19Well, I guess that answers that.
00:48:21Sebastian, that's...
00:48:23No, no, it's fine.
00:48:25I have some work I need to be doing now.
00:48:36I'm just throwing this out there,
00:48:38but I think I'm entitled to more like 65%.
00:48:42Yeah, yeah, that sounds fine.
00:48:43Fine?
00:48:45Sebastian, that's robbery.
00:48:47Your head isn't in the game.
00:48:49We need to wrap this up
00:48:51so we can send it before Congress
00:48:53and push this merger through soon.
00:48:55A good negotiation
00:48:57is where both parties walk away
00:48:59equally unhappy.
00:49:01And right now, Sebastian,
00:49:03I'm very happy.
00:49:09That's it, Sebastian.
00:49:11I'm done.
00:49:13Wait, what do you mean that it's over?
00:49:15We need a break.
00:49:17Listen, why don't we take a long weekend?
00:49:19You can go home
00:49:21and refocus on this merger,
00:49:23and I can spend some time with my grandkids.
00:49:25We've spent every day at this damn office.
00:49:27We can come back on Tuesday
00:49:29and wrap this thing up.
00:49:32Okay.
00:49:34Yeah, yeah, that's a good idea.
00:49:36Let me...
00:49:38Everyone, listen up.
00:49:40Everyone can have off for the week
00:49:41with pay.
00:49:51So,
00:49:53do you have any plans for the weekend?
00:49:55How would I? I just found out I have the week off.
00:49:57Well, I'd like to take you to dinner.
00:49:59Sebastian, I...
00:50:01I can't, but thank you.
00:50:03My mom's still in the hospital,
00:50:05so I have to go visit her.
00:50:07Well, maybe she'd like a box of chocolates.
00:50:09Yeah, maybe she would.
00:50:12Can I come in?
00:50:15Please.
00:50:17Fine.
00:50:19I'd love to have a drink, but I can't.
00:50:21Well, no one offered you one.
00:50:23I can't because I'm pregnant.
00:50:26You're pregnant.
00:50:28I don't know how to tell you this, Sebastian,
00:50:30but you're the father.
00:50:32That's impossible.
00:50:34We broke up three months ago.
00:50:39Can't you tell me
00:50:41I'm two months pregnant?
00:50:43No, no, no. I can't be the father.
00:50:45Okay, well, I have a paternity test
00:50:47and ultrasound that say different.
00:50:51Right there.
00:51:07Well, if this is true,
00:51:09then I'm not the type of man
00:51:11you think I am.
00:51:13I know it is.
00:51:15That's what I love about you.
00:51:17You're so responsible.
00:51:20You need to go.
00:51:22I need time to think.
00:51:24Leave that there for you.
00:51:35I don't know how I'm going to tell Vanessa,
00:51:37but I have to be honest with her.
00:51:39I think we got him.
00:51:41I hope so.
00:51:43You riding whore on her car did nothing.
00:51:45And me leaving those photos that I took
00:51:47when I broke into her house also didn't work.
00:51:49Okay, well, I'm still out too grand
00:51:51for a fake paternity test.
00:51:53I really thought Sebastian hitting me
00:51:55would ruin this merger.
00:51:57Okay, I still want the merger to happen, moron.
00:51:59I just want the divorce to happen after
00:52:01so that I get half.
00:52:03And if that doesn't work, we'll move on to plan C
00:52:05and eliminate Sebastian altogether.
00:52:07I know exactly where he hangs out
00:52:09when he needs time alone.
00:52:11He's humiliating a lot of people.
00:52:42That is beautiful and delicious.
00:52:47Who's it from?
00:52:49I hope it's not from Bruno.
00:52:51Oh, my God.
00:52:55If you change your mind, I'm here for you.
00:52:58With all my love, Sebastian.
00:53:08It's a plane.
00:53:10It's a plane ticket
00:53:13to Italy.
00:53:16You must go.
00:53:18I'm not leaving you, Mom.
00:53:25Two tickets.
00:53:29Mom?
00:53:31How are you feeling?
00:53:33I'm feeling like I need to see
00:53:35the Italian countryside
00:53:37and eat some authentic Italian.
00:53:39Yes.
00:53:53Welcome.
00:53:55Hi.
00:53:59Nice to finally meet you.
00:54:01Oh, lovely to meet you, too.
00:54:03Yeah, come on in.
00:54:07So, Miss Porter, how are you doing?
00:54:09Wonderful.
00:54:11Just wonderful.
00:54:13Thank you so much for bringing
00:54:15my daughter and I out here.
00:54:17And that private jet experience,
00:54:19that is the way to travel.
00:54:21And the food was delicious.
00:54:23What's mine is yours,
00:54:25so feel free to make yourself at home.
00:54:31Mom, where are you going?
00:54:33Are you feeling okay?
00:54:35I'm fine.
00:54:37Absolutely awesome.
00:54:39So I'm just off now
00:54:41to find myself an Italian man, Mom.
00:54:43You are in the right place, then.
00:54:45Oh, do not encourage her.
00:54:49I'm going to leave you guys alone.
00:54:51Enjoy.
00:54:53Well, cheers to that.
00:54:55Cheers to that.
00:55:00I need to come clean.
00:55:03Bruno and I...
00:55:05Look, I don't care about...
00:55:07No, listen, we were never a thing.
00:55:09I faked the whole thing.
00:55:11Why?
00:55:13I didn't know how to break it off with you.
00:55:16I was afraid I was a distraction.
00:55:19So I lied.
00:55:21And it blew up in my face.
00:55:24Vanessa, I need you to understand
00:55:26something very clearly.
00:55:28I'm not distracted by us together.
00:55:30I'm distracted by our support.
00:55:40And I also want to be honest
00:55:42with you about something.
00:55:45Ruby told me that she is pregnant
00:55:47and it's mine.
00:55:49What? How?
00:55:51Look, I don't believe her,
00:55:53but I still do need to play this thing right.
00:55:55And I hope that you can trust me on this.
00:55:59Okay.
00:56:01I trust you.
00:56:05I love you.
00:56:09I love you too.
00:56:39I love you.
00:56:59I love you, Vanessa Porter.
00:57:01I love you, Sebastian Armstrong.
00:57:10I should go check on her.
00:57:12Okay.
00:57:14Mom?
00:57:17Mom?
00:57:32Hello? Who is this?
00:57:34I'm your mother.
00:57:36She will stay safe if you follow my every word.
00:57:37All text instructions to this phone.
00:57:39If you alert the authorities,
00:57:41your mother will be killed.
00:57:44I'm coming for you, Mom.
00:57:49This is the address.
00:57:51Vanessa.
00:57:53Glad you made it.
00:57:55Looks like you brought your little boyfriend.
00:58:05Yes, Coding Boss.
00:58:07So is she.
00:58:09Let's go inside.
00:58:13Look at you two.
00:58:15Wow.
00:58:17The perfect couple.
00:58:19What do you want, Bruno?
00:58:21I'll do the questioning.
00:58:23That's what people with guns get to do.
00:58:25We could have been a great team,
00:58:27but you had to blow it all for some trim.
00:58:29Just tell me why.
00:58:31Shh, shh, shh.
00:58:33I always hated guys like you, Sebastian.
00:58:35Bootstrap guys.
00:58:37That's why I'm going to love
00:58:39letting you drive for everything you've worked for.
00:58:43I want your entire fortune.
00:58:46You son of a bitch!
00:58:49Calm down, Sebastian.
00:58:51We don't want to end up under the sea.
00:58:59Fine.
00:59:02For Teresa.
00:59:04We just need to know that she's alive.
00:59:08Mom!
00:59:10It's okay.
00:59:13Mom, it's okay.
00:59:15It's okay.
00:59:17Boo, boo.
00:59:19There's your proof of life.
00:59:21Transfer the money to this address
00:59:23using this phone.
00:59:26Come on.
00:59:32I'm so sorry that this is happening.
00:59:34This is all my fault.
00:59:36He's going to wipe you out.
00:59:40It doesn't matter
00:59:42as long as you and your mother are safe.
00:59:45I can always make my money back,
00:59:47but I need you by my side.
00:59:55Ka-ching.
00:59:57Thanks for the money.
00:59:59But you didn't really think
01:00:01I'd let your mom go, did you?
01:00:03No.
01:00:05Jessica.
01:00:16Oh, my...
01:00:19Ruby, you killed him!
01:00:21Oh, whoopsies.
01:00:23I'm such a klutz.
01:00:26Guess I won't be sharing that money after all.
01:00:30What, honey?
01:00:32You play chess?
01:00:33Is that why pawns always die?
01:00:36Hands up!
01:00:40Why are you doing this?
01:00:42I gave you everything.
01:00:44Why?
01:00:46Because you left me.
01:00:48Nobody leaves me.
01:00:50I get everything I've always wanted.
01:00:52You know exactly why.
01:00:56When I met you,
01:00:58you were nothing.
01:01:00The only reason you married me
01:01:01was to claim for my clout.
01:01:03You used me
01:01:05to climb the social ladder.
01:01:07Then once you got to the top,
01:01:09you dropped me.
01:01:11And what, you think this whore
01:01:13can replace me?
01:01:15You're wrong.
01:01:17I married you for what I thought
01:01:19was out of love.
01:01:21But then I quickly realized
01:01:23that all you ever cared about
01:01:25was material shit.
01:01:27And I tried to prove to you
01:01:29that we can't have it all.
01:01:32Hmm.
01:01:37No, no.
01:01:41Oopsies!
01:01:43Sorry, my little mouse.
01:01:45It won't happen again.
01:01:47Ruby, you can fix all of this.
01:01:49All you need to do is let Theresa go.
01:01:52Fix this?
01:01:54Yes.
01:01:56This is beyond repair,
01:01:58my dear husband.
01:01:59Revenge, retribution,
01:02:01whatever you want to call it.
01:02:03I finally have the power.
01:02:06Fuck you, bitch!
01:02:09Most dads give their girls jewelry.
01:02:11But not my dad.
01:02:13I used to think guns were scary.
01:02:15But in the right hand,
01:02:17they're quite beautiful.
01:02:19We could have been great, Sebastian.
01:02:21But you had to go ahead
01:02:23and ruin it all.
01:02:25Shut the fuck up, Ruby!
01:02:27I'm gonna kill you both.
01:02:29And when the police get here,
01:02:31they'll find me laying on the ground
01:02:33covered in blood, screaming,
01:02:35Help me!
01:02:37Help me!
01:02:39And I'll blame it on that mafia moron.
01:02:44Drop it!
01:03:00Damn.
01:03:12Are you okay?
01:03:14Yeah, I'm okay, honey.
01:03:16I knew you'd come and get me.
01:03:18But next time,
01:03:20can we go to Paris, please?
01:03:22Okay.
01:03:24Miss Porter,
01:03:26I'm Detective Colombo.
01:03:27I've been working for you for several months now.
01:03:29And we have all the information we need
01:03:31to indict Ruby and Bruno
01:03:33on an extortion plot.
01:03:35But how?
01:03:37We had somebody on the inside.
01:03:41You're a cop?
01:03:43Yeah.
01:03:45Department of Justice undercover.
01:03:47The merger made us look into a possible crime link
01:03:49with Armstrong Enterprises.
01:03:51Turns out Sebastian is legit.
01:03:53He just hired the wrong people.
01:03:55Luckily, Interpol connected me
01:03:57and offered a guest.
01:03:59Guess those late-night wine sessions
01:04:01were just research, huh?
01:04:03Getting to be your friend was just one of the benefits.
01:04:05Oh, one more thing.
01:04:07Mr. Armstrong, your money's secure.
01:04:09We made sure the transfer didn't go through.
01:04:18And in business news,
01:04:20the Congress has approved
01:04:22the Bastion Enterprise merger.
01:04:24CEO Sebastian Armstrong
01:04:25is one of the happiest men in the world.
01:04:27This merger is an unprecedented green deal.
01:04:29They have agreed to convert 70%
01:04:31of their carbon-producing plants
01:04:33into renewable energy power plants.
01:04:37Cheers to Teresa
01:04:39being cancer-free for six months.
01:04:46And cheers to Vanessa
01:04:50for her hopefully making me
01:04:52the happiest man on earth.
01:04:53Oh, my God.
01:04:58Will you marry me?
01:05:04Yes.
01:05:13I promise to love you forever.
01:05:16I promise to love you forever.
01:05:23Cheers.
