00:00Miss Ellis, your court speech today was incredible.
00:09You argued your case brilliantly.
00:12Of course.
00:13Have a good night.
00:14You too.
00:15Oh, Skylar, the big shot lawyer, the cost of your victories is more than
00:29you can afford.
00:31Your family will pay the price in blood.
00:36No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:59no, no, no, no, no, no May, you can't go in here.
01:04Please.
01:12No.
01:19No.
01:24No!
01:26You're going to stay in the hospital for the rest of your life.
01:28Please!
01:37Boss.
01:41Only Skylar's sister survived.
01:44They're taking her to the hospital now.
01:46Miss Ellis, I am so sorry. Your parents, they didn't make it.
02:00Your sister's still alive. Just barely. We found her in the bathtub.
02:04But she's still in a very deep coma.
02:06Whatever it takes to save her.
02:09Please be aware that the treatments she'll need are not cheap.
02:16Please.
02:37Mr. Hodges. Hi, it's Skylar Ellis.
02:40Are you still seeking legal counsel?
02:42Stop calling me!
02:43Your firm's been shut down. Your license revoked. Your name is mud.
02:47No one will ever hire you again.
02:54Um, excuse me. Is there any chance I can make this payment in installments?
02:59Oh, it's already been taken care of.
03:01But, who?
03:03She left this for you.
03:20Make yourself comfortable. My boss is right here.
03:24Who's your boss?
03:26He'll introduce himself shortly. Right this way.
03:44Welcome, Miss Ellis.
03:47I don't believe we've met.
03:50Why are you helping me?
03:52You're just the person I need for my team.
03:55Why me?
03:57Well, you're smart. You're also short on cash.
04:01I'm prepared to offer you $100,000 per assignment.
04:05It's all legal. No breaking laws. No arson.
04:09Plus, you don't have any other options, do you?
04:18Plus, you don't have any other options, do you?
04:29For my sister. I'll do it.
04:33Excellent. Zion Baldwin.
04:39Skylar Ellis.
04:42Your first task is to become my brother's assistant.
04:45His name is Austin Baldwin. He works at the Baldwin Group.
04:51It's a pleasure to be here. Here is my resume.
04:55Skylar Ellis? The star lawyer? I'm paying for my sister? I don't get it.
05:01Since when is being overqualified a problem?
05:04I don't see anything useful here.
05:08Is this how you always conduct interviews?
05:10Oh, I'm sorry, Ms. Baldwin. Sorry.
05:16Why do you want this job, Ms. Ellis?
05:18You might have seen the arson story last week.
05:22I lost both my parents and my legal career.
05:26I need this job to support my sister's treatment.
05:29Your sister survived the arson?
05:31Yes.
05:32How did she survive?
05:34I need this job to support my sister's treatment.
05:37Your sister survived the fire?
05:40She's still in a coma.
05:42Look, I don't want to overstay my welcome if I'm not the right fit for the role.
05:46I know that you have another interview in ten minutes, Mr. Baldwin.
05:53Call me Austin. I'm sure you can bring a lot to this company.
05:56Call me Austin. I'm sure you can bring a lot to this company.
06:10What's this mutt doing here?
06:18Austin!
06:22I'm right here.
06:24You skipped breakfast, so I brought you some snacks.
06:30Hannah, remember you're carrying our family's future, so keep an eye out.
06:36Especially around the mutt.
06:54Completed your first task.
06:56Your payment's been transferred.
06:58What's next?
07:00Always in a rush for your next paycheck.
07:02What wouldn't you do for money?
07:04Nothing.
07:06Can you swim?
07:09Jump in the pool.
07:11For a hundred thousand, jump in the pool.
07:23You
07:54You owe me a hundred thousand dollars.
07:58Maybe you and I aren't so different after all.
08:05I need this.
08:09It has to be a secret.
08:13Is that my next assignment?
08:23Yes.
08:42Good.
08:44Your next task is to make sure that Austin's child is in a good home.
08:49I might bend the rules, Zion, but that is just evil.
08:54Think about it, Skyler.
08:56If my father becomes a grandfather, he might hand the entire company over to Austin.
09:01If he takes over, how can I afford your expensive fees?
09:11You know what?
09:19Yeah.
09:44Austin!
09:46Austin!
09:47Sorry to scare you.
09:48I just wanted to bring you a sandwich.
09:51I can take the milk to Hannah.
09:58Are you okay?
09:59I'm so sorry about that.
10:01It's okay, it's just milk.
10:04Here, you eat, and I'll get Hannah out of the bath.
10:08I can never do this.
10:10Sorry.
10:21Thank you all for joining us for our engagement celebration.
10:24We have some wonderful news.
10:27Hannah's pregnant.
10:30Is this how you repay my generosity?
10:35Sorry, but I've added a new act to your play.
10:41Hannah, how could you do this?
10:42Get your hands off her.
10:43Who the hell are you?
10:44Oh, Hannah didn't tell you?
10:46I'm her boyfriend.
10:49I'm sorry.
10:50I'm sorry.
10:51I'm sorry.
10:52I'm sorry.
10:53I'm sorry.
10:54I'm sorry.
10:55I'm sorry.
10:56I'm sorry.
10:57I'm sorry.
10:59I'm sorry.
11:02And that baby is mine.
11:08Enough.
11:09Kick this asshole out of here now.
11:12Party's over.
11:14Deb, we need to sort this out.
11:16We don't know the whole story yet.
11:17The story is she cheated.
11:19How am I supposed to entrust to you with the Baldwin Stadium project?
11:23You can't even control your own fiance.
11:28Do you think you deserve this champagne?
11:34You tell me.
11:35I need a spy.
11:38Not someone who thinks they can outsmart me by changing the plan.
11:42Introducing a new character creates Riz.
11:53It was the only way.
11:56At least it saved a life.
11:58Now you want to be the good guy?
12:01I'm never the good guy.
12:03As a lawyer, I got involved in a case which cost me my parents and nearly my sister.
12:13You promised you'd take it from me instead.
12:16A piece of advice.
12:18Empathy will only help you to fail.
12:24Don't do it again.
12:30Go check on your boss.
12:38Thank you, Mr. Baldwin.
12:53Austin?
12:56Let's get you home.
13:04Please don't leave.
13:09Today was supposed to be the happiest day of my life.
13:13And please don't.
13:15Austin.
13:17It's me, Skyler.
13:20I'm your assistant.
13:24I'm sorry, I'm too drunk.
13:29Will you stay with me a while?
13:42Okay, the groundbreaking ceremony for the new stadium is going to be in one week.
13:47Now, Mr. Lucas' only granddaughter, Abby, will be attending.
13:51It's time our two families come together in something other than business.
13:56Now, Abby's always liked Austin.
14:00Oh, come on. How long are you going to mourn a gardener's daughter and a cheating whore, no less?
14:05Since you still can't function yet, Zion, you'll take over the project.
14:09And whichever one of you marries Abby first, well, you'll receive 10% of the company as a reward.
14:18I'm in.
14:22Get her out!
14:23I'm sorry, Mr. Baldwin.
14:25But you need to hear the whole truth.
14:29Turns out Hannah's no pushover.
14:32What do you have to say for yourself, Hannah?
14:34It was...
14:39All Zion's doing.
14:44Uh, do you have any proof?
14:51Is this a check from Zion?
14:57He paid Dave to disrupt our engagement.
15:04He paid Dave to disrupt our engagement.
15:09And this baby?
15:12Austin, it was yours.
15:14Maybe it was.
15:16Zion threatened to harm my father unless I terminated the pregnancy.
15:22I had no choice.
15:25It really is Zion's signature.
15:28Zion, explain yourself.
15:30Did Zion deliver this to you personally, or did someone else?
15:38Taking my money and turning on me...
15:42That's not good business, Hannah.
15:44What?
15:45Okay, enough!
15:47You betrayed your entire family, Zion.
15:52You will atone for this.
15:59Ugh!
16:00Ugh!
16:03Ugh!
16:04Ugh!
16:08You asshole.
16:10Zion's a monster, Dad.
16:12He killed Austin's baby.
16:14He has to pay!
16:17If I'd known what you'd become, I'd regret the day that you were born.
16:22You were nothing but trouble.
16:24Just like your mother.
16:27Is that so?
16:35Tanner, the Baldwin Stadium project is all yours now.
16:40Thank you, Dad.
16:43Stay here and reflect on your sins.
16:49You're lucky.
16:52I thought this was the end of the road for you.
16:55But at least now everyone knows you're a killer.
17:00Just like your psycho mother.
17:18Hannah played her part well.
17:20The Baldwin Stadium project is finally ours.
17:28Hannah needs to get out of town.
17:31That doesn't sound like something Saint Austin would say.
17:34A pawn that served its purpose is no longer useful.
17:38And the baby?
17:39Was it actually yours?
17:41Focus on your own moves.
17:43I'm not competing for Abby, but Zion will.
17:47I have another target.
17:57Drop the act.
17:58Austin, Dad's not here.
18:01He doesn't want to see us in each other's throats.
18:04Fuck off.
18:22Zion couldn't even wait for Dad to say so.
18:25You wished him dead?
18:26He's still your brother.
18:28So learn something from Austin.
18:30At least he had the heart to give Zion some water last night.
18:40Austin, I need to pick up a contract from a vendor.
18:47Mr. Baldwin.
18:49Mr. Baldwin.
18:51Can you hear me?
18:54Zion.
18:56Zion.
18:58I need to call 911.
19:01There's a first aid kit.
19:02It's on the counter.
19:04You need to go to the hospital.
19:06Just do what I tell you.
19:20Let me get you a painkiller.
19:26About Hannah, there's someone else pulling the strings.
19:32Do you think Tanner set you up?
19:35Maybe it was Austin.
19:40We're all hungry, dirty wolves.
19:43But he's different.
19:46Then what is he?
19:48A decent gentleman.
19:51If you actually believe that, then that's your next task.
19:55Seduce your decent gentleman.
19:58You think too highly of me.
20:00I can't.
20:02I won't.
20:06Don't tell me you have actual feelings for him.
20:09That's not the point.
20:25Who am I?
20:41Try and make Austin fall in love with you.
20:43Quickly.
20:45How noble.
20:47Sleeping with the same woman as your brother.
20:51If you succeed, I'll arrange for the best surgeon for your sister.
20:55But if you fail, she will suffer.
21:08I am thrilled to announce that my eldest son Tanner will now spearhead the Baldwin Stadium Project.
21:21Thank you everyone for joining us at the groundbreaking ceremony today.
21:27I am committed to elevating the Baldwin Group to unprecedented heights.
21:37It's been a while since you've seen Tanner, hasn't it?
21:41Son, keep Abby company.
21:45You have exquisite taste, Abby.
21:49That wine comes from our own vineyard.
21:52It's a bit too sour for me.
21:54Is Austin here today?
21:56I, um...
22:01What the fuck?
22:03What are you, blind?
22:04You just ruined my dress.
22:06It's a custom, one-of-a-kind piece.
22:08It is unique.
22:10But unique can still be ridiculous.
22:13I can design something better for you.
22:15Really?
22:17You can design?
22:18Come with me.
22:20I'll see what I can do for you.
22:33Abby's here.
22:34You should go talk to her.
22:36Aren't Tanner and Zion already pursuing her?
22:39She's always had a soft spot for you since childhood.
22:42Me and her, it's not possible.
22:46Abby must become my daughter-in-law.
22:48This is your golden opportunity, Austin.
22:50Don't waste it.
22:52Yes, sir.
22:56Wow, what a beautiful couple.
23:14That's why he wants me to seduce Austin.
23:18So he has a clear path to pursue Abby.
23:27Austin!
23:31You okay?
23:33I think I twisted my ankle.
23:35Let's get you to a hospital.
23:42Is that girl Austin holding his assistant?
23:47Are you jealous, Miss Lucas?
23:49Me? Never.
23:51I heard she's quite the troublemaker.
23:54What a jinx.
23:56Tell me, what's the difference between you and every other drama queen?
24:01What are you doing?
24:06These don't suit you.
24:20Hey, Zion.
24:22What happened?
24:23She twisted her ankle.
24:25The doctor advised risks.
24:29Oh, brother, you are every woman's knight in shining armor.
24:39What?
24:41Thanks.
24:49Let me know if you need anything.
24:50Right next door.
24:51Thank you so much, Austin.
24:53That's fine.
24:55Wait!
24:58I think I left a mark on your cheek.
25:01I didn't notice.
25:05Can you grab my makeup remover in the bathroom?
25:08Sure.
25:12Come closer.
25:40Yeah.
25:45I can't stay.
25:47Your foot's so hot.
25:49Sure.
25:52Good night, Austin.
25:54Good night.
26:02Why don't you ever say good night to me like that?
26:08You really are quite the actress.
26:10Just following your script?
26:12I'm impressed.
26:15Miss Ellis, you seem quite skilled at seduction.
26:20This is the ballroom.
26:22There are people right next to us.
26:25It's kind of hot, right?
26:27Perverting.
26:30You should be worried about Abby.
26:33You should worry about Abby.
26:35You should worry about yourself.
26:49Skylar, are you awake?
26:54Skylar, are you awake?
26:56Yeah, I'm still in bed.
26:59I just wanted to check on you.
27:01How's your foot?
27:04What's wrong?
27:06Should I come in?
27:11No need.
27:13My foot still hurts a bit.
27:15All right, take more rest then.
27:17Don't come to work today.
27:18Okay.
27:20Thanks, Austin.
27:29What are these?
27:32Your reward.
27:34Austin's falling for you.
27:36Good girl.
27:38So what's next?
27:40Just keep them.
27:42Fine.
27:44It's getting late.
27:46You should leave.
27:55Wow, you rich people really go all out to impress.
28:00Have you ever even named a hotel after Miss Lucas?
28:04Tanner's declaring his love to her.
28:06Oh, love her.
28:08Tanner's here too.
28:11Looks like we're in for a show.
28:14I heard.
28:16You're sniffing around Abby too.
28:18She's out of your league.
28:21Same could be said about you.
28:25I'm going to throw you out right now, mutt.
28:30I'm going to throw you out right now, mutt.
28:36Abby!
28:39Happy birthday.
28:41Thanks.
28:44I have a big surprise for you today.
28:50Will you be my girlfriend?
28:53That's sick.
28:56Abby, I had this ring specially made for you.
29:01I'm serious, Valance.
29:03If you wanted a star from the sky, I'd find a way to get it for you.
29:07Say yes!
29:16Tanner, does dad know you renamed the hotel?
29:20Does he know that you're using company funds for this ring without his permission?
29:25Abby, don't listen to him.
29:27Besides, it's basically my money.
29:30Oh, you're planning on taking over everything?
29:34That sounds like a curse to the dead.
29:36Shut your fucking mouth!
