Short filmTranscript
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 fairytale 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.
00:02:20No, please, sir.
00:02:21It won't happen again.
00:02:22No more Mr. Nice Guy this time.
00:02:23You get out.
00:02:24You leave.
00:02:25Please.
00:02:26No.
00:02:27Now.
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.
00:03:11No.
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, Warren.
00:03:46Jack, my man.
00:03:47Que paso?
00:03:48What's up?
00:03:49So I'm a little disappointed that you're making me ask again.
00:03:52When are you going to 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?
00:04:10How can I help my mom when I can't even afford something to eat?
00:04:14Maybe next time.
00:04:18Thanks.
00:04:20Call me.
00:04:21I'll call you back.
00:04:22Jack, come on.
00:04:23You gotta lock on me.
00:04:24Jack's never done that before.
00:04:26If he doesn't lock away this inheritance deal, then the Morrison deal's over.
00:04:31We're over.
00:04:33Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren.
00:04:37I've got just the plan.
00:04:39Come on.
00:04:45Just when I think I've found her, she's gone again.
00:04:55How am I going to find her again?
00:05:03You could always marry Vivian Chase, sir.
00:05:06Are you out of your mind?
00:05:07Vivian and I are done.
00:05:08Never again.
00:05:09She's just business now.
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, 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?
00:16:05Oh, 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... I can't accept this.
00:16:25You can, and you won't.
00:16:27I'm sorry.
00:16:29I'm sorry.
00:16:31I'm sorry.
00:16:34Unless 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,
00:17:16do you want me to cut this steak?
00:17:18I don't need a knife. I need a chainsaw.
00:17:20Okay.
00:17:22Jackie, 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.
00:17:46This is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:48I'm sorry, but I didn't...
00:17:50I 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?
00:18:11We're done with the ex.
00:18:18As I was saying...
00:18:20You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:19:10Wow.
00:19:12Good?
00:19:14Surprisingly good.
00:19:16Surprisingly good?
00:19:18Well, payment for spying.
00:19:20Payment accepted.
00:19:22You know,
00:19:24a house this grand,
00:19:26I would expect
00:19:28a kitchen to match.
00:19:32I had to make do.
00:19:34Yeah, well, I never cook.
00:19:36It's a shame.
00:19:38You can go now.
00:20:00You, um,
00:20:02wanted to see me?
00:20:04Time for your first lesson.
00:20:06Time for your first lesson.
00:20:08My 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.
00:20:22Move the feet apart.
00:20:24Bend this knee.
00:20:26Yep.
00:20:28Then move this foot forward.
00:20:30Good. Okay.
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.
00:20:48We're just getting started.
00:20:50Oh.
00:20:54Maybe we should just focus on business.
00:20:56Rule number one.
00:21:00Stance.
00:21:02Right?
00:21:04Yeah.
00:21:30Every chef
00:21:32has his own tools.
00:21:34I, um, a business expense?
00:21:38Business expense.
00:21:40These are
00:21:42the 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.
00:21:58Maybe...
00:22:00you just like watching me.
00:22:06You know, that, um...
00:22:08This doesn't change anything.
00:22:10Of course not.
00:22:16This is for your mother.
00:22:24The...
00:22:26The...
00:22:28No, this is too much.
00:22:30This should cover the whole thing.
00:22:32At least I can do it.
00:22:36I think that's literally
00:22:38the nicest thing a man has ever done for me.
00:22:40What's the catch?
00:22:42What's the catch?
00:22:54We've got a problem.
00:22:56Morning to you, too.
00:22:58So, the inheritance release date is set, but
00:23:00if anyone finds out about the marriage, then...
00:23:02No one's gonna find out.
00:23:04Oh, really?
00:23:06Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town.
00:23:08It's under control.
00:23:11It seems like you're letting your feelings control you.
00:23:14I said it's handled.
00:23:26Just remember what's at stake here, yeah?
00:23:28This Morrison deal...
00:23:30is a deal of a lifetime.
00:23:34Don't tell me you're actually fooling me.
00:23:36Get out.
00:23:40Get out.
00:24:10Get out.
00:24:40Get out.
00:25:10Oh, no.
00:25:12God.
00:25:26Jack, darling.
00:25:28Fancy seeing you here.
00:25:30Vivienne?
00:25:32The 82 crystal.
00:25:34Remember the crystal, Jack?
00:25:36I can still feel it running down my back
00:25:38just thinking about it.
00:25:40We even used to drink some of it.
00:25:42Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:44You'll never believe what Hannah said
00:25:46about the Asian market today.
00:25:50Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:25:52This must be so boring for you.
00:25:54You're so insightful, Vivienne.
00:25:56You do bore me.
00:25:58Darling,
00:26:00the adults have business to discuss.
00:26:02Why don't you go back to, like,
00:26:04chopping or whatever it is that you do?
00:26:06So basically, you know,
00:26:08the company way that we have our investments holding in?
00:26:10I had a business meeting with Hannah today,
00:26:12and she has basically advised me
00:26:14to say that our investments are not making any profit,
00:26:16that me, myself, isn't actually doing all too well.
00:26:18So my proposal for next year would be basically...
00:26:36Quite the whirlwind romance you've got there.
00:26:38What's the catch?
00:26:40There's always a catch.
00:26:42Oh, excuse me.
00:26:44Rebecca Chen.
00:26:46Social pages.
00:26:48Two days from first meeting to marriage.
00:26:50This must be some kind of record.
00:26:52Though lately I've been more interested
00:26:54in, uh, business deals.
00:26:56Hmm.
00:26:58What would you say?
00:27:00Love at first sight
00:27:02or something more personal?
00:27:04Love at first sight
00:27:06or something more contractual?
00:27:08You know, you should really write romance novels.
00:27:10Seems you have quite the imagination.
00:27:18We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.
00:27:20I have a feeling there's quite a story here.
00:27:22Oh, the Morrison Foundation dinner's tonight.
00:27:24Oh, great.
00:27:26Another dinner.
00:27:28It's important.
00:27:30They're all important.
00:27:32It's a part of the deal.
00:27:34They're all a part of the deal.
00:27:36You knew what you were signing up for.
00:27:38Did I?
00:27:42At least Vivian will be there
00:27:44to talk deal.
00:27:46Vivian.
00:27:48Vivian.
00:27:50She'll be there to talk
00:27:52deals and acquisitions
00:27:54and mergers.
00:27:56Whatever.
00:28:08Nice.
00:28:10Real mature.
00:28:14No, don't.
00:28:16Okay.
00:28:18Okay, fine.
00:28:20You want to go?
00:28:22No.
00:28:24No, no, please.
00:28:30Okay.
00:28:32No, no, no.
00:28:34Let go.
00:28:36No.
00:28:38Ow!
00:28:46Yeah.
00:29:10Yeah.
00:29:16So, Jack's inheritance is all set.
00:29:18But he still hasn't
00:29:20signed the papers to commit the proceeds to the
00:29:22Morrison deal.
00:29:24That's a problem.
00:29:26It'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 under 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
00:29:48your sway over Jack.
00:29:50You haven't overestimated anything.
00:29:52I've just begun.
00:29:58I've got it.
00:30:10Funny how you can
00:30:12always count on the help to answer the door.
00:30:14I live here.
00:30:16Of course you do.
00:30:18Okay, thanks.
00:30:22Jack, darling.
00:30:24Should we proceed to the study?
00:30:26We need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:28Yeah.
00:30:32Well, we need to discuss
00:30:34the Morrison deal.
00:30:36Vivian?
00:30:42Remember Tokyo?
00:30:44That sake bar?
00:30:46I'm married.
00:30:48Are you now?
00:30:50I hadn't noticed.
00:30:54You know that feeling
00:30:56when you leave the house
00:30:58and you just feel like
00:31:00you've forgotten something?
00:31:06Yeah.
00:31:12I forgot something.
00:31:14Maybe you can
00:31:16help me figure it out?
00:31:22Coffee?
00:31:24Oh, no, thank you.
00:31:26Jack and I have
00:31:28much to catch up on.
00:31:30Oh, 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
00:31:38how he liked it.
00:31:40And he just absolutely
00:31:42laps up every
00:31:44drop of my
00:31:46coffee.
00:31:48Isn't that right?
00:31:50Lily makes a great cup of coffee.
00:31:58So,
00:32:00how's Vivian?
00:32:02Focus on your form.
00:32:04You know, I'm 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?
00:32:14Around.
00:32:16Tokyo gets brought up a lot.
00:32:18You've been talking to Warren.
00:32:20You've been talking to Vivian.
00:32:22That's business.
00:32:24Everything is business with you,
00:32:26isn't it?
00:32:28But you know what?
00:32:32What's this?
00:32:34Some pretty
00:32:36big business that you haven't
00:32:38been sharing with me.
00:32:40I think Vivian wants some of it, too.
00:32:42But you know what?
00:32:46Maybe you should just keep your business
00:32:48to yourself.
00:32:50Sad.
00:32:52Watch your stance.
00:32:58I don't want to be lied to.
00:33:00I'm not lying, Lily.
00:33:04Don't break my heart.
00:33:08Yeah.
00:33:30Yeah.
00:33:42Yeah, the sky is so
00:33:44gray today. I hate it so much.
00:33:46Please act like you know me. There's someone following me.
00:33:48Oh my god! Are you okay?
00:33:50Who's following you?
00:33:52That weirdo?
00:33:54Is he gone?
00:33:56I think he's gone.
00:34:06You sure?
00:34:14Like that?
00:34:18I think technique
00:34:20could use some work.
00:34:22Technique could use some work?
00:34:24They got the dota rights.
00:34:28Sure, that wasn't me.
00:34:30What?
00:34:54Of course.
00:34:56And I think the real challenge is
00:34:58deep penetration in emerging economies.
00:35:00I'm sure Jack's brought you
00:35:02up to speed on all of this.
00:35:04Um, actually, I...
00:35:06Tell me.
00:35:08What's your take on blockchain integration?
00:35:10Um, I think...
00:35:14No comment? How surprising.
00:35:16Excuse me.
00:35:18Great thinking, Lily.
00:35:20All of our drinks could use a refill.
00:35:28Uh-huh.
00:35:42Love you.
00:35:52But this thing isn't gonna
00:35:54last 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 wanna lose this deal forever.
00:36:06Lunch?
00:36:10I was just on my way out.
00:36:14Think about it, Jack.
00:36:16Hmm.
00:36:24What was that about?
00:36:26Nothing. Just business.
00:36:28Just business. Of course.
00:36:30Lily, wait.
00:36:36What do you want, Jack?
00:36:46What?
00:37:00Taking you on a holiday.
00:37:02What? You have time for that?
00:37:04A lot of time.
00:37:08Just us?
00:37:10I know what I want.
00:37:12Oh, what about, um...
00:37:14What about Warren and the deal?
00:37:16I can wait.
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.
00:37:28I'll never forget it.
00:37:30You know that I don't just, um...
00:37:32Serve that dish to anyone, right?
00:37:34Really?
00:37:36Mm-hmm.
00:37:42I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Thorne.
00:37:44I've been told to relay that there's a problem
00:37:46back at the office.
00:37:48Timeline on the deal has moved up.
00:37:50Safe. Thank you.
00:37:52Would you like me to cancel the trip, sir?
00:37:56Yeah.
00:37:58Very good.
00:38:00Who sent the message?
00:38:02They didn't chase her.
00:38:08Lily, I'm sorry.
00:38:10Don't. Please.
00:38:12It's just business.
00:38:14It's business, yeah. I get it.
00:38:24Lily, I shouldn't, uh...
00:38:26Just shut up and...
00:38:28Taste this.
00:38:30Mm.
00:38:38Mm. This tastes, uh...
00:38:40Incredible?
00:38:42Yeah.
00:38:44Yeah, I know.
00:38:46Jack?
00:38:48Mm-hmm?
00:38:50Do you want more?
00:38:52Um, after this one?
00:38:54No.
00:38:56Let the food...
00:38:58Talk about us.
00:39:06How long are we gonna keep on doing this?
00:39:20Oh!
00:39:22Oh, my God.
00:39:24What was that?
00:39:28Oh, my God.
00:39:34Any enemies?
00:39:36Business rivals?
00:39:38No one comes to mind.
00:39:40Security cameras?
00:39:42Being installed as we speak.
00:39:54Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:56Sorry.
00:39:58I thought I saw...
00:40:04Aroid.
00:40:06You okay?
00:40:08Yeah.
00:40:18Yeah.
00:40:22This is so insane.
00:40:24Yeah.
00:40:26It's probably just kids.
00:40:28Kids? Seriously?
00:40:30Can you keep your voice down?
00:40:32Oh, sorry.
00:40:34What, are you afraid that someone's gonna hear...
00:40:36About our perfect marriage?
00:40:44What are you hiding from me?
00:40:50Hey.
00:40:52Hey, you know that secret room...
00:40:54That you didn't want me to find?
00:40:58I found it.
00:41:00Yeah?
00:41:06Hey, at least it's honest.
00:41:12Do you wanna see it?
00:41:14Show me.
00:41:22Okay.
00:41:44Most people run.
00:41:46I'm not most people.
00:41:52This is what you're into?
00:41:54Among other things.
00:41:56And all of those...
00:42:00Specific requirements?
00:42:02We're meant to scare you off.
00:42:04I don't scare you, Sam.
00:42:06I'm starting to get that.
00:42:12Show me.
00:42:14You sure?
00:42:16Are you?
00:42:22No.
00:42:24I'm not.
00:42:26I'm not.
00:42:28I'm not.
00:42:30I'm not.
00:42:32I'm not.
00:42:34I'm not.
00:42:36I'm not.
00:42:38I'm not.
00:42:40I'm not.
00:42:42I'm not.
00:42:44I'm not.
00:42:46I'm not.
00:42:48I'm not.
00:42:50I'm not.
00:42:58So?
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.
00:43:16Final deal points.
00:43:18You pack your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs.
00:43:22Lily, wait.
00:43:26Just go.
00:43:48The way I can explain.
00:43:50The way I can explain.
00:43:58The way I can explain.
00:44:02Can you?
00:44:06Guess the business can't wait.
00:44:08This whole thing is...
00:44:10Let me get this straight.
00:44:12You sleep with him
00:44:14and then you find a note from his ex.
00:44:16It's complicated.
00:44:18When isn't it with you?
00:44:20Look, maybe it's time to admit
00:44:22this whole thing is just a little...
00:44:24What? A mistake?
00:44:26That you were right?
00:44:28Huh? Is that what you want to hear?
00:44:30No, I want you to be happy.
00:44:32I want you to be happy.
00:44:34I want you to be happy.
00:44:36No, I want you to be happy.
00:44:38And are you?
00:44:42I don't know what I am anymore.
00:44:44I mean, he paid for mom's operation
00:44:46so that's cool, but...
00:44:48I know. And the worst part is I think I might actually be falling for...
00:44:56Lily?
00:44:58Stand back.
00:45:00What?
00:45:02Stand back, Megan.
00:45:06Okay.
00:45:08Lily!
00:45:12Get it out!
00:45:14Oh my god!
00:45:16Fuck you!
00:45:18Come on, let's go.
00:45:26What was that?
00:45:28Lessons with Jack.
00:45:30Jack taught you that?
00:45:32Yeah, yeah.
00:45:34Admit it!
00:45:36I know.
00:45:38You okay?
00:45:40Yeah.
00:45:42God, things were supposed to be so simple.
00:45:46Now what?
00:45:48I don't even know what's real anymore.
00:45:50Oh, honey.
00:45:52I'm kidding.
00:46:04I'm kidding.
00:46:20He always keeps the ledger on his desk.
00:46:34Lauren, I've known you since college.
00:46:36How could you?
00:46:44Eleven months.
00:46:46Almost a year.
00:46:48We're barely newlyweds anymore.
00:46:50Lily, I need to tell you something.
00:46:52I'm all ears.
00:46:54It's about the deal.
00:46:56About Lauren, Vivian.
00:46:58Well.
00:47:00If it isn't the happy couple.
00:47:02Oh, great.
00:47:04The press.
00:47:10Who is it?
00:47:12It's me.
00:47:14It's me.
00:47:16It's me.
00:47:18It's me.
00:47:26These aren't real.
00:47:28Oh, my sisters say they're 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.
00:47:38Care to comment, Mr. Thorne?
00:47:42You know, it's funny.
00:47:44For a minute, I really believed.
00:47:46Lily, wait.
00:47:50They're not real.
00:47:52Tick tock, Mr. Thorne.
00:48:04Lily, wait.
00:48:06They're not real.
00:48:08You have to believe me.
00:48:10Like I believed you when you said
00:48:12that this was just a business deal?
00:48:14Like I believed you when you said
00:48:16that Vivian was just a colleague?
00:48:20Like I believed that last night actually meant something?
00:48:22It did.
00:48:24Lily, what happened between us was-
00:48:26The transaction.
00:48:28That's all any of this ever was.
00:48:30That's not true.
00:48:32And you know it.
00:48:34Do I?
00:48:36Because from where I'm standing,
00:48:38you got everything that you wanted.
00:48:40You got a wife when you needed one.
00:48:42And a body when you wanted one.
00:48:44Lily, that's not it.
00:48:46Tell me I'm wrong.
00:48:48Tell me that there's not something more going on here.
00:48:50With the business deal.
00:48:52And your inheritance.
00:48:54Anything more to explain?
00:49:02That's what I thought.
00:49:06You're a terrible person.
00:49:08If you leave now,
00:49:10you violate the contract.
00:49:12You get nothing.
00:49:14I don't care.
00:49:18I never cared about any of that.
00:49:38Hands up.
00:49:40Protect the face.
00:49:42No, don't.
00:49:44Go?
00:49:46No.
00:49:56Finally, look.
00:49:58How about the Morrison deal?
00:50:00It's off.
00:50:02What do you mean it's off?
00:50:04All of it. The deal, the inheritance.
00:50:06I don't want any of it.
00:50:08Have you lost your freaking mind?
00:50:10I mean, everything that we've worked for.
00:50:12Actually,
00:50:14I think I found it.
00:50:36You can't just hide here forever.
00:50:50Watch me.
00:51:02Hey.
00:51:04What happened to the girl who would never back down?
00:51:08The one who quit her job because she didn't want to compromise?
00:51:10She played.
00:51:12Did she?
00:51:18If that's Jack, I'm sure that's just my oxygenarian neighbor
00:51:20who's a total drama queen.
00:51:22Watch.
00:51:24Gladys?
00:51:28Gladys, is that you?
00:51:30Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:34No.
00:51:38Sir.
00:51:40Coffee.
00:51:42I did some digging around, like you asked, sir.
00:51:44You might want to see this.
00:51:50What am I looking at here?
00:51:52Wire transfers, shell companies.
00:51:54All leading back to Mr. Block.
00:51:56More.
00:51:58I knew it.
00:52:00You might want to see these too, sir.
00:52:02It contains even more.
00:52:08Son of a bitch.
00:52:10He's trying to steal the inheritance.
00:52:12He sure is.
00:52:14All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies.
00:52:18Although I suspect Ms. Chase's
00:52:20interests are not purely financial.
00:52:32Sir?
00:52:34They're threatening Lily and her sister.
00:52:36Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game.
00:52:38Give me everything you can about Warren.
00:52:40Every meeting, every call.
00:52:42Already compiled, sir.
00:52:44I had a feeling you might need this.
00:52:46Sir, what about the inheritance?
00:52:48Some things are worth more than money.
00:53:02You're calling back, Megan?
00:53:32No.
00:53:52I got us into this.
00:53:54I can get us out of this.
00:53:56I can do this.
00:53:58I can do this.
00:54:00Your little cookie's on her way over to save
00:54:02her sister as we speak.
00:54:04And I wouldn't put money on
00:54:06how well that's gonna go.
00:54:08If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:54:12Sign the papers.
00:54:14And this all
00:54:16goes away.
00:54:18Like those photos of you and me from that reporter
00:54:20suddenly went away.
00:54:24Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:54:26Don't they?
00:54:28I always knew you were soft.
00:54:30But this?
00:54:32Throwing away a billion dollar inheritance
00:54:34for some chef.
00:54:36He's not throwing it away.
00:54:38He's giving it to us.
00:54:40All we need is a signature,
00:54:42Jack.
00:54:44You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:46Always have.
00:54:52I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:54Hmm.
00:54:56Wait.
00:55:16Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:18Let me go.
00:55:22Remember your training.
00:55:24Protect your face.
00:55:30Megan!
00:55:32Lenny!
00:55:36Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:38Come on.
00:55:40Come on.
00:55:42Of course it's a trap.
00:55:44The question is,
00:55:48what are you gonna do about it?
00:55:50Lenny!
00:55:54I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.
00:55:56Room 115.
00:55:58Lauren's called the police.
00:56:00Already done.
00:56:02But sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:56:04She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:56:06No, no, no, no, no.
00:56:10Lauren, she's there.
00:56:12Lily's there.
00:56:16Hold on, Lily.
00:56:18Hold on.
00:56:20Hold on, Lily.
00:56:22Hold on.
00:56:36Leave her alone!
00:56:38Shut up!
00:56:40Get away from my wife.
00:56:42Well, well.
00:56:44The hero arrives.
00:56:46Don't do it, Jackie boy.
00:56:48Don't do it, Jackie boy.
00:56:52I'm not some damsel
00:56:54in distress.
00:56:56That's my girl.
00:57:04Oh.
00:57:06I guess it is real love, huh?
00:57:08Oh.
00:57:18That's for my sister.
00:57:20You son of a bitch.
00:57:26Lily.
00:57:28About everything.
00:57:30The photos. Vivian.
00:57:32Now? Seriously?
00:57:34I love you.
00:57:36Not for any inheritance.
00:57:38Not for any deal.
00:57:40Just...
00:57:42you.
00:57:44I know.
00:57:54You, stay right there.
00:57:56Come on, cover me.
00:58:07What the hell?
00:58:12This isn't...
00:58:14Possible?
00:58:16And I wouldn't put money
00:58:18on how well that's gonna go.
00:58:20Sign the papers.
00:58:22Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:58:24That proves nothing.
00:58:26I think it might prove something.
00:58:28Yeah, and those photos that you planted?
00:58:30Maybe use better AI next time.
00:58:32You can't.
00:58:34You two are under arrest.
00:58:38You'll regret this, Jack.
00:58:40The inheritance, the...
00:58:42Are nothing compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:44You 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.
00:59:05Here to twist the knife?
00:59:07Actually...
00:59:09I'm here to get it right.
00:59:11Where did you...?
00:59:13Lawrence sends his regards.
00:59:15Seems your butler is a little
00:59:17armchair investigative journalist.
00:59:19So, no scandal piece?
00:59:21Oh, there's definitely a scandal.
00:59:24But not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:29That's...
00:59:31actually accurate.
00:59:33I'm a reporter.
00:59:35Truth is kind of my thing.
00:59:37Though I must admit, I didn't see
00:59:39the secret martial arts skills coming.
00:59:41Yeah, neither did I.
00:59:44Story runs tomorrow.
00:59:46Catch you on the next scandal.
00:59:55The way about the inheritance...
00:59:57You 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.
01:00:20It 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.
01:00:37Excuse me, sir.
01:00:39Miss Chen's article is out.
01:00:41How bad is it?
01:00:43Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.
01:00:45She's included the last bit you wanted put in.
01:00:48Jack Thorne announced plans.
01:00:50In a shocking turn of events,
01:00:52tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans
01:00:54to transform his inherited fortune
01:00:56into the city's largest culinary grant program.
01:01:00Surprised?
01:01:03But your...
01:01:05your inheritance is gone.
01:01:07It's gone.
01:01:09It's gone.
01:01:11It's gone.
01:01:13It's gone.
01:01:15But your... 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.
01:01:35My turn.
01:01:36I don't know.
01:01:38Perfect, Julie and Danny.
01:01:40Keep it thin, okay? Just like that.
01:01:58This looks good on you.
01:02:00And who said there's no such thing as a happily ever after?
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?
01:02:18Best business decision I ever made.
01:02:27Hang on.
01:02:35Voila.
01:02:40I'm the best chef in town.
01:02:43You're only saying that because you're contractually obligated.
01:02:47I think that contract expired.
01:02:50Good thing I signed a new one.
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...
01:03:49Not one.
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...
01:04:27Lauren, tell me back.
01:04:34Mrs. Thorne, are you trying to negotiate new business terms?
01:04:38I don't know, Mr. Thorne.
01:04:43Can you handle them?
01:04:45I thought this wasn't about business anymore.
01:04:49How about you just shut up?
01:04:51And kiss your wife?
01:04:56No.
