00:00You want to go to a press conference on our wedding night?
00:06Darling, it's not that I want to go.
00:07Look, I cannot let Vernon Dupree spin a tale for the press that he all but owns.
00:12We're married now.
00:13Who cares what Danny did?
00:15Let it go.
00:16Danny pulled a gun on us at our wedding.
00:19Tried to humiliate us by making us bow before her.
00:23If she had snapped any further, we could have died.
00:25But we didn't.
00:26They're gonna spread around a bunch of cash and call in some favors to make sure she gets off.
00:31So what, Bill?
00:33Don't you want...
00:34I want to get under the covers with my new husband and have the honeymoon that he promised me.
00:41Look, we will have our honeymoon, baby, okay?
00:43I promise.
00:44But Danny robbed you of the wedding you dreamed of, okay?
00:47It's time for payback.
00:47I gotta go.
00:50Not a chance, Bill Hamilton.
00:54United Front, everyone.
00:56I'll do all the talking.
00:58Naomi, where is Jacob?
00:59He got called into work.
01:01Sorry, Granddad.
01:02It's a shame.
01:03A police officer in our ranks would speak volumes.
01:06I know, but Jacob and I just thought...
01:07It's all right, sweetheart.
01:08With all of you behind me, the message is clear.
01:11The Duprees continue to be leaders in the community and above reproach.
01:16Not to throw cold water on your strategy, Granddad, but that's a tough sell.
01:20Why?
01:21My congressional staff has clogged my inbox.
01:23With what?
01:24Apparently, clips from the livestream have gone viral on every platform.
01:29We caught that, too, with some shade and dragging mixed in.
01:34My grandparents' Facebook group is shocked that a Dupree would cause such a scene, at a wedding, no less.
01:40On Insta alone, over 3 million views.
01:42All right, everyone.
01:44Devices away.
01:46I call this press conference to shut down all this chatter, not engage in it.
01:51Daddy, I can talk about what Danny did from a psychological perspective.
01:54I don't want anyone calling my daughter crazy.
01:56That's why I can help.
01:57I can tell the press it's possible that a mentally healthy person can have a temporary break.
02:03Not sure how helpful that would be.
02:05Don't you think me being a psychiatrist makes me the most credible messenger?
02:09Not only that, Danny's my sister.
02:10My experiences with her makes it personal.
02:13When Danny messes up, I clean up.
02:14That's our eternal dance, Daddy.
02:18Could be right.
02:19I'm gonna go let him in.
02:22Like mother, like daughter.
02:24Like I don't already feel bad enough.
02:26How many times do I have to say it?
02:27I'm sorry I live-streamed it, okay?
02:29I didn't mean to, but...
02:30Please squabble later, you two.
02:32The press has arrived.
02:36Game faces, everyone.
02:38Thank you for coming out on such short notice.
02:41I realize many of you had kicked off your shoes and settled in for the evening.
02:46Sir, if I could just ask you a few quick questions...
02:47Good, Mrs. Cantor.
02:49Oh, so glad you came out.
02:51How's the new baby?
02:51She is fine, but what I really want to know about...
02:53I'll let you get right back to her.
02:56There's been a lot of speculation about recent events concerning my family.
03:02I'd like to give an accurate picture of what transpired here at this country club earlier today.
03:09The video is pretty clear, is it not?
03:11During the wedding of Bill Hamilton and Hayley Lawson,
03:16a gun belonging to my daughter, Danielle,
03:21inadvertently discharged.
03:23Not a crime, just an unfortunate accident in which no one was hurt.
03:29So if that's the case, then why is she not here right now?
03:32I am here.
03:33I'm just running a little late.
03:35There is no way in the world that I would miss this press conference.
03:40You all deserve the truth.
03:46I am here.
03:47I'm just running a little late.
03:49There is no way in the world that I would miss this press conference.
03:53You all deserve the truth.
03:55I am here.
03:56I'm just running a little late.
03:58There is no way in the world that I would miss this press conference.
04:02You all deserve the truth.
04:04I am here.
04:05I'm just running a little late.
04:07There is no way in the world that I would miss this press conference.
04:11You all deserve the truth.
04:13I am here.
04:15Oh, my first week nursing, and I deliver a baby in an elevator.
04:20I don't even know how to process that.
04:22It's amazing.
04:23Yeah, and instead of me actually being on the outside watching, taking quick pics,
04:27it was next level real, seeing everything.
04:30But you were so together.
04:31I would have thought you deliver babies on the regular.
04:33I was just following your lead, actually.
04:35That new mom.
04:36Her name is Alex.
04:37Yeah, Alex.
04:38She thought she'd done it a million times,
04:40and I was not about to give her a tip that I was shook.
04:43Okay, but don't sell yourself short, Andre.
04:45The way you calmed me down when I was freaking out, I so needed that.
04:49And you never let on to Alex that it was my first week nursing,
04:52or I never delivered a baby on my own.
04:54You were a great partner.
05:00As you can all see, my daughter Dani is here and just fine.
05:06Mrs. Langlo, what are you doing?
05:08Isn't this presser about me?
05:09Yes, but well, then it would be suspicious if I weren't here.
05:12You're not the only one who can help this family.
05:14Dani, tell us why you'd bring a gun to a wedding.
05:18Our family's high profile in our political activism makes us targets.
05:24We've had numerous death threats over the years.
05:28Danielle's gun is legally registered, and she has a concealed carry permit.
05:33We've all seen the footage.
05:35It's very evident that your daughter intentionally pulled a gun on her ex-husband and his new wife.
05:40So how about you stop spinning the truth just to protect your family?
05:46I've been in those situations.
05:48They're intense.
05:49Looks to me like you were both caught under pressure.
05:51Oh, honey, you have that so wrong.
05:54Newsflash.
05:56Is it Alex and the baby? What's wrong?
05:57Nothing. The doctor said Alex is doing just great.
05:59And the baby?
06:01Little Ashley Andrea is doing perfect.
06:04Ashley Andrea?
06:06Nurse, you look amazing.
06:08How cool is that?
06:09Congratulations, namesake.
06:10Same back at ya.
06:12I love that she named the baby after you two.
06:14She's always going to remember who helped deliver her precious little bundle of joy.
06:17Isn't that wonderful?
06:23You do remember you married an attorney, right?
06:26Yes.
06:27Okay, so what do you think happens if I don't show up in court?
06:29The opposing side wins.
06:30Yes, without so much as a blink from the judge.
06:32Okay, well, this isn't a lawsuit.
06:34I'm your wife, not a client.
06:36I don't care if that self-righteous family comes up with some ridiculous explanation for what happened.
06:41You and I know the truth.
06:43That's enough.
06:44Not for me, it's not.
06:45And it shouldn't be for you either.
06:46Hey, look, if Vernon can blame me for what his daughter did and the press buys it, that directly affects my practice.
06:52My ability to let clients provide for my wife, it affects how judges and juries see me.
06:56Oh, you mean your reputation.
06:58Yes.
06:59My reputation matters.
07:00And so does yours, by the way.
07:02I'm not that shallow.
07:07Okay, okay, hey, wait, wait, hey, hey, hey.
07:09That's one of the many reasons I love you, baby, okay?
07:13But I won't have you labeled a homewrecker when it's been Danny who's been a one-woman wrecking ball ever since you and I fell in love.
07:19That's why I need to go to this press conference.
07:21And I'm asking you not to.
07:23Look, I just married you, Bill.
07:26I know you love me, okay?
07:28And that's part of why you need to confront them.
07:30But what about how I feel?
07:34What does it say to our commitment if you will leave me on our wedding night to do damage control because of your ex?
07:43Please, don't leave me here alone.
07:48There is no spin.
07:50Yes, Danny deliberately took out a gun at a public gathering and admitted lapse in judgment.
07:57Yes, someone could have been hurt.
07:59So you're saying she wasn't attempting to shoot her ex-husband or the person that he left her for?
08:04That's a ridiculous question.
08:08No, Danny had no desire to shoot anyone.
08:11Why point the gun at the bride and groom then?
08:14You all seem to have memorized the video frame by frame.
08:20So surely you must have noticed Danny shift the gun away from Bill and Haley before firing.
08:27Yes, my daughter acknowledges her mistake despite being under horrific emotional strain.
08:35Danny, did you plan to kill them?
08:37That is preposterous.
08:39And before you make any more outrageous accusations against my daughter, there's a few things I need you to know.
08:48There is a proper context through which to view this video.
08:52You all know our family has always remained private and circumspect.
08:57Which is why the press never caught the slightest hint of the hell Bill Hamilton and Haley Lawson put Danielle through.
09:05Exactly.
09:07Bill gaslit my daughter.
09:10He had an affair with Haley right under her nose and then called her paranoid when she suspected.
09:16And Haley embarked on a mission to become my granddaughter Naomi's best friend.
09:21And then proceeded to use that friendship to insinuate herself into her best friend's father's bed.
09:28She is hardly an innocent victim.
09:32Danielle crossed the line.
09:34We acknowledge that she did.
09:37But it was Bill Hamilton who pushed her over it.
09:40And if there are any consequences to be faced...
09:42What do you mean by consequences?
09:44That will be all. No more questions.
09:47I'd like to answer that.
09:51You go, girl.
09:53I need to go see Alex and thank her.
09:55Look, I'll go with you. After all, her name is Ashley Andrea.
09:58You want to come with us?
09:59I think maybe you should hold off for a little bit.
10:01The doctor just left and Mama, Daddy and Baby are just settling in for a nap.
10:05Well, I should at least send Alex flowers or something.
10:07I mean, how do you thank somebody for something this huge? It's a big deal.
10:11You guys earned it.
10:12Yeah, I've never had somebody named after me before.
10:15I hope she's not doomed to pick up my bad habits.
10:17And what are those again?
10:18It doesn't matter.
10:19Whatever bad habits you have, you're also this major photographer
10:23and somebody who doesn't melt down in an emergency.
10:26Be cool for her to inherit all that.
10:29Listen to Ashley, man.
10:31You're alright.
10:32Yeah, but compared to you, I'm a slouch.
10:35You fight fires, I take pics.
10:37You tackle emergencies every day.
10:39It makes my gig seem trifling.
10:42How about we say this?
10:43You are both pretty fine men with awesome qualities and one pretty lucky nurse.
10:49I am lucky.
10:50And exhausted.
10:52I should get you out of here.
10:55This first.
11:03I would be a coward if I let my parents take the blame for what I did.
11:08I can't.
11:10No.
11:12No, today I blazed past even my own guardrails.
11:15And I want to apologize.
11:18First to the staff, who must have been terrified when they saw that gun.
11:24I am so sorry.
11:27And to my family, who doesn't deserve the shame that I heaped on them.
11:35Mom.
11:36Dad.
11:38I know I can't apologize enough.
11:42You are the best parents.
11:44You've given me the moon since I knew how to point to it.
11:48And disappointing you is the worst punishment ever.
11:52No excuses.
11:54But I will admit, this is a very low point in my life.
12:01And I hate that my daughter is blaming herself for it.
12:06Chelsea, baby.
12:08Come here.
12:12You didn't do anything wrong.
12:14There is no way you could have known what would happen.
12:18Aww.
12:19I'm all choked up.
12:21Still in her wedding gown?
12:23Probably your dad's idea.
12:24Uncle Bill.
12:25Or used to be uncle.
12:27All about the optics.
12:29Beautifully played, Dupreece.
12:30As always.
12:31But I'd like to add a little testimony of my own.
12:35Okay.
12:41Just wait here, sweetheart.
12:43Bill is about to ruin this.
12:45After daddy orchestrated this presser beautifully.
12:48There's not much we can do now.
12:55Seems we arrived just in the nick of time.
12:58Your spiel was very informative, by the way.
13:01It was news to me that our wedding was broadcast all over social media.
13:05And I'm pretty sure that your fun little live stream could be evidence of quite a few unlawful behaviors.
13:12Disorderly conduct, making a terrorist threat, menacing, first degree assault, discharging a firearm, reckless endangerment of the greater public.
13:20Shall I go on?
13:23My ex-wife is right about one thing, though.
13:27This is not my daughter's fault.
13:29Chelsea, baby, you don't have to feel one iota of guilt.
13:33Because I'm sure your mother pressured you to record the moment in order to humiliate me.
13:37She didn't. Mom didn't have anything-
13:38Be that as it may.
13:41Sadly, in spite of my ex-wife's sob story, which makes her erratic and insane behavior sound like a one-off.
13:48This is not an isolated incident.
13:52Danny has been harassing Hayley and me for days now.
13:55She physically assaulted Hayley in front of witnesses, disfiguring her face, right before our wedding.
14:03I should have had Danny arrested the moment I saw Hayley's injuries.
14:06But?
14:08Danny is the mother of my two children, Naomi and Chelsea.
14:12And I wanted to respect them.
14:14Respect the past that we all had together.
14:16But with that being said, I have run out of patience.
14:20Now let me be clear, this is not about me.
14:22I can handle whatever Danny Dupree dishes out.
14:27But I will not sit idly by while she bullies my wife.
14:35I would say get a room with all the ones here for sick people.
14:38And you two are clearly very healthy.
14:40I'm so sorry, that was so unprofessional.
14:42I'm not going to hold it against you since you delivered your first baby in an elevator, stuck.
14:46But don't think every day is going to be that exciting.
14:48Some days you'll deliver babies without being on an elevator with a world-class photographer.
14:53And I doubt you'll have much reason to stop by the hospital.
14:56Well, actually, I am overdue for a check-up.
14:59Oh, please, don't act like you're not plugged in around here.
15:02His aunt, Dr. Nicole Richardson, is on staff as a psychiatrist here.
15:06And his uncle, the renowned plastic surgeon, Dr. Ted Richardson, works out of here, too.
15:12When he's not at his ultra-chic, private, exclusive practice.
15:14But it pays to be informed.
15:16Yes, it does, Shanice.
15:18And thank you for reminding me that I have quite a few reasons to drop by more often.
15:22Mm-hmm.
15:24Oh, add these extra hours you work before you leave.
15:27Yeah.
15:29Well, I'm going to take a hike.
15:32Thank you again, Andre.
15:34Tonight was unforgettable.
15:37See you.
15:39Mr. Hamilton!
15:41Mr. Hamilton!
15:42Mr. Hamilton!
15:44Why here on your wedding night?
15:46I allowed you to cram stand at my gathering.
15:50But now it's time for you to back off.
16:00This press conference is over.
16:02Thank you, as always, for the courtesy you extend my family and allowing us to set the record straight.
16:10That was a trip.
16:12Yeah.
16:15What's on your mind?
16:18Well, while you were playing dutiful grandson and I was playing dutiful spouse to said grandson, I kept thinking.
16:28About what?
16:30The conversation back at Vernon and Anita's.
16:32It was weird.
16:34Why?
16:35Because when you said that you understood how rage could explode into acting out.
16:42Yeah?
16:44Well, your grandparents, they looked at each other like they were in some secret society or something.
16:49That just happens when you've been married for so long.
16:53You and I do the same thing.
16:55I guess.
16:58I know you two think I screwed up royally by showing up at this press conference.
17:02We think no such thing.
17:03Your face says otherwise.
17:05It went perfectly fine.
17:07Until Bill crashed it.
17:09I know I keep letting these things get out of hand, but I meant what I said about taking responsibility.
17:16Daddy, I want you to call the police.
17:24And is that everything?
17:26My mother made a voluntary statement.
17:28Now, if you're planning on taking her in, you better have probable cause for an arrest since you have no warrant.
17:33You are her daughter.
17:36And an attorney at law.
17:38Officer Jenkins, is it?
17:40Yes.
17:42I really admire your professionalism here.
17:45I'll be playing golf with Chief of Police tomorrow.
17:49You know Chief Elon Hawthorne?
17:51We were close friends.
17:53Even have family ties.
17:55I'll be sure to tell him all about how we were treated by the police this evening.
18:01Doesn't sound like there's anything here that's chargeable.
18:05Thank you for speaking with me.
18:07I'll just head back to the station and write up the incident report, sir.
18:12Good night.
18:15They're letting her off the hook.
18:21Thanks, Sissy.
18:23It's always great having you at my back.
18:25I'm glad this went your way.
18:27But Danny, I think you should talk to somebody.
18:30Somebody professional.
18:32Not in this family. Objective.
18:34So I can have all my business smeared across social media?
18:37I can recommend somebody discreet.
18:40This whole family thinks I'm around the bend.
18:43You want to go at me too, Teddy?
18:45Maybe suggest a facelift?
18:47Danny, stop.
18:49We love who you are. Strong, happy, authentic.
18:51We just want to see the real you again.
18:53Let's take a look at that.
18:57Oh, little Ashley is perfect.
18:59She weighs seven pounds.
19:01She's a healthy one.
19:03You're going to follow that little girl's entire childhood through charts, aren't you?
19:05I feel a real connection to her.
19:07I can't explain it.
19:09And actually, Shanice, I was thinking, I'm still completely wired,
19:11so if you want me to put in another couple of hours,
19:13I could answer phones, I could stock supplies.
19:15Babe, you've already worked a full shift.
19:17I know, but I'm on such a...
19:19Let me talk to you for a second, please.
19:20Nurse to pediatrics.
19:22Ashley, what you are going through now
19:24is a product of the adrenaline rush
19:26and hormones going through your body.
19:28It feels like a high, I know.
19:30Some shrinks call it a peak experience.
19:32But it'll throw you off, and I want you to go home.
19:35Even if I'm not tired?
19:37You're not tired now.
19:39But you will crash, and I don't want it to happen on your shift.
19:41Fine. I will go home.
19:43I will get some rest.
19:45And I will be ready to report for a more normal day tomorrow.
19:47You're planning on getting here early
19:49so you can see the baby before we release her, aren't you?
19:51I don't want to miss seeing her one more time.
19:53You ready to head out?
19:55Yeah.
19:56Thanks.
19:58Rest up.
20:00We're going to work on your next shift.
20:02You got it.
20:04Shanice is right. You need sleep.
20:06Well, then you better come back to my place
20:08and tuck me in.
20:10Ooh.
20:12You catch that hack trying to ambush
20:14Grandfather and Aunt Danny?
20:15A journalist?
20:17Yeah, he was good.
20:19He was stealthy.
20:21Stuck around to get the real story.
20:23More like stuck around to get some dirt.
20:25If it was me, I wouldn't have wasted time bantering about privilege.
20:27I would have gone straight to whether or not
20:29Vernon actually golfs with the police chief.
20:31Figure out how close his ties to the cops really are.
20:33But you already know the answers to those questions.
20:35Because you're family.
20:37Are you reminding me of that?
20:39It just seems like
20:41you're enjoying our family woes
20:43just a little bit too much.
20:45I feel awful for what you guys are going through.
20:47Then what?
20:49I miss covering the news.
20:51Longing for the days gone by?
20:53Being there when a story broke was exciting.
20:56Now you have a new excitement.
20:58Raising our teenagers.
21:02You aren't the picture of hypocrisy.
21:05I beg your pardon?
21:07Takes a lot of stones to make a big speech
21:09about how your family always takes responsibility
21:11right before using all of your pull
21:12to make sure Danny suffers no actual consequences.
21:15You lost, Bill.
21:17Get over it.
21:19Must feel great
21:21being an ever-winning Dupree.
21:23Gaslighting the entire country
21:25into thinking you're some living Satan.
21:27Really, you're nothing more than another ruthless DC operator.
21:29I hope you and your new wife
21:31got what you were looking for
21:33by making this scene.
21:36Now you and Danny are even.
21:38But who's counting, right?
21:40Enough is enough, Bill.
21:42It's time for you to
21:44declare a ceasefire with Danny
21:46so we can all just move on.
21:49Never thought I'd see Vernon Dupree
21:52coming to me hat in hand.
21:54This isn't a request.
21:56I'm telling you,
21:58this tit-for-tat needs to end.
22:00Oh, on that much we can agree.
22:02In fact, I can say the same thing to Danny.
22:06Where the hell did she disappear to?
22:27Why do you always have something to say?
22:30Too much rosemary on the chicken.
22:32I don't mind rosemary.
22:34I don't mind.
22:36Why do you want chicken always?
22:38I will.
22:40Boy, boy, boy.
22:42Why does it seem so empty in here all of a sudden?
22:45You know?
22:47I mean, it's been years since Naomi lived here
22:49and Chelsea's always off somewhere modeling.
22:52Maybe it's because you just walked
22:54your firstborn down the aisle
22:56and gave her away.
22:58Yeah, well.
23:00Bill?
23:02What did you do?
23:04What?
23:06Why are you always so suspicious?
23:07Because I have good reason to be.
23:09Don't start, Danny.
23:11No, no, no, no, no, no.
23:13There was something in that giving Naomi away.
23:15I don't know what you're talking about.
23:17You are outrageous.
23:19I don't know what you're talking about.
23:21I thought when the reverend didn't say
23:23who gives this woman he forgot,
23:25you asked him to leave it out, didn't you?
23:27I merely suggested that it's barbaric
23:29for us to stand before witnesses
23:31and state that we're prepared to hand over
23:33this beautiful, brilliant woman that we raised.
23:35That's all.
23:37I thought he was handing me over to you.
23:39Seeing Naomi take those vows,
23:41it just hit me, you know?
23:43You were younger than she is when we got married.
23:45Mm-hmm.
23:47And I started thinking about
23:49all the demands I made of you.
23:51Wanting you to turn your back on modeling,
23:54focus on me and my career
23:56and raising the girls on top of that.
23:58Man, I'll tell you what.
24:01If Jacob were to ask Naomi
24:03for half the things I asked of you,
24:05they'd never find that boy's body.
24:07Because in Bill Hamilton's plan for his progeny,
24:09Naomi is to become president,
24:11followed immediately by her appointment
24:13to the Supreme Court.
24:15You're damn right.
24:17She's got that kind of promise.
24:19She does.
24:21Yeah.
24:23And you have that, too.
24:25You did.
24:27I'm sorry I was so dismissive
24:29of your dreams and accomplishments, baby.
24:31Those are my daughters, too.
24:33Yeah.
24:35And I wouldn't take back one minute
24:37about all the other ways
24:39your sacrifices benefited me.
24:41And the first year of my practice,
24:44my client roster outmatched
24:46the top firms in D.C.
24:48And it was you.
24:50And my father.
24:52No, baby, that was you.
24:54You made sure I was taken care of
24:56and seen in those spaces
24:58and known and applauded.
25:00You tolerated things.
25:02We said we weren't going to go there today.
25:04I know.
25:06I know, I just...
25:08Seeing Naomi today
25:10made me realize our little girls
25:12are all grown up.
25:14And you're still Danny Dupree.
25:16You could walk away from me right now
25:18and still have a bigger and better life
25:20than the one that I've given you.
25:22Who are you
25:24and what have you done with my husband?
25:26Bill,
25:28what fun would my life be
25:30if you weren't in it?
25:31Well,
25:33let me pay you back.
25:35Okay?
25:37I promise this next chapter
25:39will be worth every runway
25:41you walk away from,
25:43every magazine cover you didn't race
25:45and every spotlight that you let dim
25:47because you chose to be with us instead.
25:49You gave up a world that adored you
25:51to be with a family that needed you.
25:53And I'll spend the rest of my life
25:55proving to you
25:57that that's the best decision
25:59you ever made, baby.
26:01If I could spend a lifetime
26:03with you looking at me
26:05like this,
26:08like I am the only person
26:10who would ever or could ever
26:12be more essential to your happiness,
26:15I'd do it again and again.
26:17Even if I let you down?
26:20Baby, I let you down too.
26:23The love was always there.
26:27So...
26:29do you promise to give me forever?
26:31Again?
26:34I do.
26:36Do you?
26:38Beyond forever is how long
26:40I promise to love you, Dani.
26:42I promise.
26:44Yes.
26:46Mm-hmm.
26:59Because...
27:01you've got to give yourself a break.
27:03You didn't do anything wrong.
27:05Except stream my mom in full-on crazy.
27:07You were just live-streaming
27:09a family event
27:11like the good little influencer you are.
27:13What is wrong with me, Kat?
27:15Why didn't I just shut the thing off
27:17when things went south?
27:19Because there was a gun?
27:21Maybe you got distracted.
27:23Listen,
27:25I don't know what you're talking about.
27:26I was distracted.
27:28Listen,
27:30I shouldn't have been so hard on you earlier.
27:32Anybody in your shoes
27:34would have been totally frozen.
27:36I'm ready to unplug
27:38everything, be social media-free.
27:40Hold up.
27:42With everything we've got going on,
27:44that's taking it way too far.
27:46That's all you care about?
27:48When you're not down on yourself,
27:50you care about it too.
27:52We've gone all out on this, Chels.
27:54You didn't spend all those years
27:56trying to fix it.
27:58Aunt Dani would tell you the same thing.
28:00Even if I get her arrested,
28:02that's not gonna happen.
28:04But yeah,
28:06even then.
28:08Because she doesn't blame you
28:10for what happened.
28:12So stop blaming yourself.
28:17You know how I always have
28:19that little insecure voice in my head?
28:21Not sure how little it is.
28:23All through nursing school it was there.
28:24Am I smart enough?
28:26Am I capable enough?
28:28Can I actually hold other people's lives
28:30in my hands?
28:32But after tonight, it's gone.
28:34Like it actually turned off.
28:36That's great, babe.
28:38Never doubted you.
28:40I don't know why you doubt you.
28:42You are my one man pep squad.
28:44You got me here.
28:46You know that?
28:49You've got a lot of support, sweetie.
28:51True.
28:52You,
28:54my mom,
28:56good friends like Naomi
28:59and Andre.
29:03Oh my God, I can't believe
29:05I'm still wearing my wedding dress.
29:07Well, I'd be happy to help you out.
29:10I got into it.
29:12I'm sure I can get out of it alone.
29:14Come on, babe.
29:16You gotta give me a little credit, right?
29:18I mean,
29:20it was an unforgettable wedding day.
29:22Some might call it an adventure.
29:24Hmm.
29:26Fantasies about my wedding day.
29:28Nope.
29:30None involved getting shot at
29:32and crashing a press conference.
29:34I thought you wanted to go with me tonight.
29:36That you didn't want to be alone.
29:38And I wasn't.
29:40You made sure I was surrounded by Dupree's.
29:42And we finally closed the chapter on Danny.
29:44That woman is a trauma queen.
29:47I know.
29:49I know.
29:51She needs constant attention.
29:53I swear.
29:55But you know what?
29:57She's not getting that from me anymore.
29:59You know why?
30:01Because from this moment on,
30:03it is all about you.
30:13I got your message when I was in my car.
30:16You told me to let myself in.
30:21I hate to disappoint you.
30:23But if you're wanting to go out...
30:25Oh.
30:27I don't.
30:51I'm here to listen to whatever you say.
31:05I better split.
31:07Before we even...
31:09If we even...
31:11neither one of us will get any sleep
31:13and I got an early shift tomorrow.
31:16Stop it, sexy.
31:18You know you can't resist me.
31:20Nope.
31:22But don't you want me to be awake enough
31:24to remember every delicious moment?
31:28Oh, sorry.
31:30That settles it.
31:32Sleep.
31:34And next time I'm in this apartment,
31:36we will go all night long.
31:47You sure?
31:51That is just mean.
31:53Okay, fine.
31:55Love you.
31:57Love you, too.
32:00Missing out.
32:15Hey.
32:17I thought you were going to meet me in bed.
32:19I thought I would join you in the shower
32:21until I heard your phone on speaker
32:23while talking to Mike.
32:26Right.
32:28That was about the wrongful death suit
32:30the judge, he...
32:32Yeah.
32:34Okay, look, let me make it up to you.
32:36How?
32:38Nothing's gone the way that I planned.
32:40Well, I mean, we did manage to get married.
32:42That counts, doesn't it?
32:45It's everything.
32:46Yeah.
32:48And you said you have a wedding surprise for me.
32:50I'm dying to know what that is.
32:52Look, I'm all surprised out.
32:55I'm not a fighter like you, Bill.
32:57I can't just jump in the ring one minute
32:59and then shake it off the next.
33:01I'm a nervous wreck.
33:03This is about Danny?
33:05Before the press conference,
33:07you said none of it mattered.
33:09Well, maybe having a gun drawn on me
33:11by your deranged ex has sunk in.
33:13Baby, Danny's not a factor in our lives anymore.
33:16Yeah.
33:18For you, maybe.
33:20But she's living rent-free in my head now.
33:22And until I can shake this out,
33:24can you just be patient with me?
33:27Okay.
33:29What does that mean, exactly?
33:31I don't know.
33:33Slow, I guess.
33:35Bill, I need to take this slow.
33:37All right.
33:39Come here.
33:41Come on.
33:43Where are we going?
33:44Here.
33:46Okay.
33:48Okay.
33:50And now we hold hands.
33:52Come on.
33:54And what is this gonna prove?
33:56This is the hand I gave you today,
33:58and this is the hand you gave me.
34:01Hmm.
34:03And then you get lucky.
34:05I'm already lucky.
34:07Hey, you're my Mrs. Hamilton.
34:10Can't get luckier than that.
34:13Hmm.
34:16Can I get you anything?
34:18You already got me more than I need for the moment.
34:21You're that easy to please, huh?
34:23Maybe.
34:25Or maybe I want to know what made you text me today.
34:28You told me I was a one-night stand.
34:30Can't a woman change her mind?
34:32Of course.
34:34Can a woman tell me why?
34:37What if I told you I nearly blew away my ex at his wedding?
34:40Okay, are you serious?
34:43Well, don't worry.
34:45The only thing that got hurt were a few flower arrangements.
34:47You're not lying, are you?
34:49Where have you been all day?
34:51Under a rock?
34:53Yeah, something like that.
34:55Well, when you decide to join the rest of the world,
34:57there is a viral video of my escapades,
35:00in case you don't want to miss it.
35:02So what are you doing?
35:04You hiding out?
35:06I don't have to.
35:08My daddy solves all my problems.
35:10How does getting you off the hook from shooting up a wedding
35:13jive with Silver Rice?
35:15Cops, my friend. Cops.
35:17Daddy used to fear them.
35:19Now they fear daddy.
35:21So we're celebrating.
35:23Or exercising demons.
35:26Maybe a bit of both.
35:28And nobody was hurt?
35:30Not physically.
35:33Your takeaway is?
35:35Don't pack heat at weddings.
35:37I'm serious, Dani.
35:38I know.
35:41Listen,
35:43I'm glad you called me over.
35:45But on the real,
35:47I'm just a part of this whole
35:49attraction to danger thing that you have.
35:51You gotta get this wild side under control.
35:54I know. I know.
35:56It is the straight and narrow for me
35:58from now on, like a proper Dupree woman.
36:03Even if it kills me.
36:05Can you believe what's happening beyond the gates?
36:08Senator Richardson has a big secret.
36:11You need to be the first one to know.
36:13And can we talk about Andre?
36:15Are you ever not actively flirting?
36:17He is quite the player.
36:19Girl, this place is wild.
36:21Anything can happen.
36:23Sound for payback.
