Transcript
00:00:00I can't believe I've married a man I've only met once.
00:00:03Take the card. The password is 66.
00:00:05Spend as you like.
00:00:07I'm in a hurry to get to Europe for business.
00:00:09I'll contact you when I get back.
00:00:11There's no need to. I've got enough money.
00:00:15We can leave money right after getting our marriage license.
00:00:19He's doomed us only to please his parents.
00:00:22But does he really want to spend the rest of his life with me?
00:00:26Ginny, I failed to protect you three years ago.
00:00:31Ruined your reputation and you couldn't go home.
00:00:35I'm no longer healthy anymore.
00:00:38And my greatest wish now is that you can marry a man that takes good care of you.
00:00:44Kirsten is the grandson of my bestie.
00:00:48He promised me to take good care of you.
00:00:51I'll marry him, Grandma.
00:00:53As long as it puts Grandma's worries to rest, does it matter who to marry?
00:01:04Grandma, we've got the license.
00:01:07I'm so happy for you, Ginny.
00:01:09Wish you two a happy life and have children soon.
00:01:14Okay.
00:01:16Children.
00:01:18The guy ran away right after getting the license.
00:01:21I can barely remember what he looks like.
00:01:26Mr. Mike, I heard that President Miller have been in Europe for a year for business and just got back today?
00:01:31Yes.
00:01:32Since you just got transferred from the subsidiary to the headquarters,
00:01:35you haven't got the chance to meet Mr. Miller.
00:01:37Mr. Miller.
00:01:47This is so President.
00:01:48Mr. Miller.
00:01:49This guy seems rather funny.
00:02:18You're familiar.
00:02:48Like you may not know, women nowadays like to punch above their weight.
00:02:54The easy-on-the-eyes ones are all dreaming about marrying into the load of families.
00:03:01Ignore the douchebag.
00:03:02I've got big news.
00:03:04The president will pick one from over 20 people in the secretary's office to join me as a special assistant.
00:03:11You've got to seize the opportunity.
00:03:18Come in.
00:03:22Mr. Miller, the two best candidates from the secretary's office are here.
00:03:27Mr. Miller, my name is David, and I've been working in the president's office for five years.
00:03:33By the way, my uncle Jamie asked me to pass on his greetings.
00:03:39I hate those who exploit connections the most.
00:03:47I still feel like I've seen him somewhere.
00:03:52What are you doing?
00:03:53Hi, Mr. Miller.
00:03:56My name is Ginny, and I...
00:03:57Ginny?
00:03:58Why does the name Ginny ring a bell?
00:04:02Let her stay here.
00:04:04And be my personal secretary.
00:04:07Personal secretary?
00:04:08Alice.
00:04:18Grandmother?
00:04:19How can you be a husband like this?
00:04:21Leaving your wife behind right after marrying her last year, and hustling in Europe for a year.
00:04:26If you do not take her home, I will never leave this summer resort until my dying day.
00:04:37Grandma, I was planning to call for her today.
00:04:41Oh!
00:04:43I'll send you her address and number, and you go pick her up yourself after work.
00:04:52I'm telling you, you have to make it up to her.
00:04:58Sure.
00:04:59I will make up for what I owe her this past year, and be a good husband.
00:05:03What do you think I should prepare before meeting a woman?
00:05:06Depending on what woman?
00:05:09My wife.
00:05:10So Mr. Miller is married, and smiling so gently, speaking of his wife.
00:05:15They must love each other so much.
00:05:18Mr. Miller, the necklace named Stellar that you specifically went to Paris and spent $10 million for is for your wife?
00:05:25Who else?
00:05:26With the $10 million necklace in hand, you're already prepared.
00:05:38Mr. Miller, it takes a young girl to know the interests of young girls.
00:05:43Um, Mr. Miller, I think girls would adore jewelry for sure, but I think the little things like getting your wife a bouquet, taking her out to dinner, catching a movie together, are priceless.
00:05:55Good.
00:05:56You go arrange these.
00:06:00Remember, Mr. Miller really hates those subordinates who have a secret crush on him.
00:06:04Don't ruin your own career.
00:06:05Thanks for the heads up, Mike.
00:06:07I only fancy to double pay, not himself.
00:06:14I'm finally done with the grind.
00:06:17These rich folks can do nothing without bossing others around.
00:06:21Hello?
00:06:39Who is it?
00:06:41How can my own wife not even know my number?
00:06:47Teston.
00:06:48Name rings a bell.
00:06:50Hello, Keston.
00:06:51Is there anything I can help you?
00:06:54My confused babe has even forgotten my name on the marriage license.
00:07:00I'm your...
00:07:00Sweetie, come for dinner, if you are up.
00:07:06How can there be another man's voice in my wife's house?
00:07:14Turns out my so-called good wife is a slut.
00:07:20Hanged up like that?
00:07:26Such a weirdo.
00:07:27But how do you know my private number?
00:07:30Sweetheart, come for dinner.
00:07:32Genie!
00:07:33Come for dinner.
00:07:34Dinner's ready.
00:07:38This looks wonderful.
00:07:39Thank you so much.
00:07:41So, president...
00:07:43Of the top-notch conglomerate, M-group.
00:07:47The top-notch conglomerate has never shown his face in the public media.
00:07:53How does he look?
00:07:54Are you charmed off your feet?
00:07:56He's got good looks for sure.
00:07:59But...
00:08:00As for...
00:08:01If it's to the extent that charms feet off...
00:08:03That's for his wife to answer.
00:08:05Oh, really?
00:08:06Oh, he's married!
00:08:08Yep.
00:08:09And he loves his wife dearly.
00:08:10He does look familiar.
00:08:12I couldn't remember where I'd seen him before.
00:08:14Don't forget you're married, lady.
00:08:16Do you really expect Genie to spend the rest of her life waiting for that bastard who vanished right after marrying her?
00:08:24That irresponsible jerk.
00:08:27I swear, even if he gets down and begs me, I won't lay eyes on him.
00:08:34Mr. Miller seems to be really upset today.
00:08:38You think maybe he didn't get what he wanted from his wife last night?
00:08:42Is that something we can gossip about as subordinates?
00:08:46Is that something we can gossip about as subordinates?
00:08:55It's not entirely impossible.
00:09:00Mr. Miller!
00:09:01Look at this beauty!
00:09:02Your new assistant is not only young and pretty.
00:09:05This body is also...
00:09:07Out of this world!
00:09:10I'm flattered, Mr. Thomas.
00:09:13Hey, Mr. White.
00:09:14Do you play golf?
00:09:16No, I don't, Mr. Thomas.
00:09:17Hey, if Ms. White doesn't know how to play, I can teach you!
00:09:23Holy shit, I'm going to get fired for offending such a VIP important client!
00:09:27You bitch dare to get rough with me?
00:09:29Mr. Thomas!
00:09:31She's mine!
00:09:32I thought the rumors were true that Mr. Miller is completely celibate, now that Mr. Miller hasn't gotten tired of it yet.
00:09:46Okay, I'll wait a little longer.
00:09:48Mr. Thomas, apologize to her right now.
00:09:51Mr. Miller, we are partners.
00:09:53You wouldn't do this for this little slut.
00:09:55What a little slut.
00:09:58Seducing married men at this young age?
00:10:01I didn't seduce him!
00:10:03He tried to rape me!
00:10:04I didn't seduce him!
00:10:06No wonder you got in that good college!
00:10:08You must have slept with every man in school!
00:10:11Why should I be humiliated like that?
00:10:15Just because I'm a girl.
00:10:17Because I'm pretty.
00:10:18Mr. Miller, we can have a thorough exchange about the art of flirting.
00:10:21With women later.
00:10:22I'm a specialist in this.
00:10:25Stop!
00:10:26Get out!
00:10:26Understand?
00:10:30Mr. Miller, it was my mistake.
00:10:33For the sake of our partnership, please!
00:10:36Mr. Miller is just misunderstanding.
00:10:37I can explain!
00:10:41From today onward, M-Group will never collaborate with Mr. Thomas, you company.
00:10:48Yes, sir!
00:10:51Get out of here!
00:10:52Is Mr. Miller avenging me?
00:10:55Um, Mr. Miller, I know that a last-minute change to the partnering company will cause a great loss to M-Group.
00:11:15I am really grateful for you for helping me out.
00:11:17Mr. Miller, it's the main fault of the man who sexually harassed you, not you.
00:11:22When you are bullied in the workplace, no matter what the occasion is,
00:11:26and you gotta fight back bravely.
00:11:29And there's no need to hold your tongue.
00:11:32M-Group will always be supporting you.
00:11:34If somebody stepped forward to defend me when I was pushed around back in the old days,
00:11:46I wouldn't have gotten that route.
00:11:51Thank you, Mr. Miller.
00:11:52I know what to do going forward.
00:11:55You weren't backing off when he pushed you around, you know?
00:11:59And look, now, you are weeping.
00:12:01Uh, um, Mr. Miller, I'm going to shop around for some local specialties before we leave.
00:12:08Do you want to bring your wife a gift?
00:12:09Last time I heard a man's voice over the phone call there.
00:12:12Of course, it doesn't prove anything.
00:12:13It might be just a misunderstanding.
00:12:15Okay, I'll go with you.
00:12:16I'm taking my wife to dinner tonight.
00:12:18You booked the restaurant ready, okay?
00:12:20Yeah, no problem.
00:12:21Leave it to me, Mr. Miller.
00:12:22Okay.
00:12:25A diamond bracelet costs $10 million.
00:12:30Three purses for more than $4 million.
00:12:33The decadence of the rich is truly beyond my wildest imagination.
00:12:41Mr. Thomas of YU Corporation, who had been investigated for corruption,
00:12:45was involved in a car accident while escaping,
00:12:47and his right hand was permanently disabled.
00:12:49He-heh, if Miss White doesn't know how to play, I can teach you!
00:12:56What is it?
00:13:01Um, Mr. Miller, Mr. Thomas of YU Company had an accident, did you hear?
00:13:05You should be glad to have lost only one hand.
00:13:11Word has it that Mr. Miller is restless and cruel.
00:13:16What?
00:13:16Scared?
00:13:18No, I'm not.
00:13:21Are you sure?
00:13:26It doesn't matter what the rumors say about Mr. Miller, being ruthless or what.
00:13:32The Mr. Miller I know smiles softly when speaking of his wife,
00:13:36and prepares gifts no matter how busy he's at work.
00:13:40And he defends his subordinates.
00:13:41And I'm your assistant, not your enemy.
00:13:45Why should I be afraid of you?
00:13:50Do you think I'm promiscuous or a man within your reach?
00:13:53I just want to add you as friend on WeChat's app.
00:14:00Beat it.
00:14:07What a woman she is, to make Mr. Miller dis-faithful.
00:14:11Mr. Miller, the bracelet is in the bouquet.
00:14:18And I have arranged the restaurant, as well as the after-dinner entertainment.
00:14:22The details are sent to your phone.
00:14:23Have a nice date.
00:14:29Whoever the president's wife is,
00:14:32she's darn happy.
00:14:34Finally, to call it a day.
00:14:38Hi, Grandma.
00:14:38Alice, do you have any idea that ever since you finished the paperwork
00:14:45and jetted off for work abroad,
00:14:47leaving your newlywed wife behind,
00:14:50I haven't had the nerve to face her for this whole year.
00:14:57You'd be driving me crazy if you don't go now to pick up Ginny and bring her home.
00:15:03Grandma, what did you say her name is?
00:15:06Oh, oh my goodness.
00:15:09What am I gonna do with you?
00:15:12Ginny!
00:15:14Her name is Ginny!
00:15:17You little brat.
00:15:18You don't even remember what your wife's name is.
00:15:22I can take no more of you.
00:15:23Hi, Mr. Miller.
00:15:25My name is Ginny.
00:15:26No wonder it rings a bell.
00:15:31It's the same name as my wife.
00:15:34Grandma,
00:15:35I was just about to go pick her up.
00:15:37When I get her,
00:15:38I will bring her to you first.
00:15:41Keep your word this time.
00:15:43Don't come
00:15:44to see me without her.
00:15:46I tell you what.
00:15:47Ginny is a really good kid.
00:15:50You are lucky.
00:15:51To have married her.
00:15:53Be grateful for what you have.
00:15:56Grandma,
00:15:57I trust your good read of people.
00:15:59And when married,
00:16:00I sure will be responsible for her.
00:16:05Mr. Miller, it's here.
00:16:07Do you want me to call for Mrs. or-
00:16:08She's my wife.
00:16:10Of course I'll go myself.
00:16:13My dear,
00:16:15I hope you'll enjoy the gift I've prepared for you.
00:16:17Come on, come on, come on.
00:16:21Shake a leg
00:16:21and fetch a bottle of ketchup.
00:16:22The fried fish is almost done.
00:16:24Okay, I'm on my way.
00:16:25Okay.
00:16:47Shall we?
00:16:52Now I pronounce you-
00:16:54Husband in the morning.
00:16:55Yes.
00:16:55I don't even know who you are.
00:16:57I don't even know who you are.
00:17:11You're mine forever and ever.
00:17:12Here's my card.
00:17:13Use it as much as you want.
00:17:15There's no limit.
00:17:15It will not decline.
00:17:16I don't either.
00:17:17I'll be in the UK office for about a year.
00:17:19Wait for the next one I get back.
00:17:19Uh, okay.
00:17:24You're good.
00:17:26Okay.
00:17:26You have a good day.
00:17:28Bye.
00:17:28Bye.
00:17:31Hey, Grandma.
00:17:33Yeah, the wedding's over.
00:17:35We got along really well.
00:17:38All right.
00:17:38Talk to you soon.
00:17:39Bye.
00:17:41Eileen,
00:17:42Tony's a good man.
00:17:44And Cynthia promised me her family to treat you well.
00:17:47I don't have any days left.
00:17:48And the one thing I want to see is that you're married to a trustworthy man.
00:17:56Whoever he is.
00:18:15Shh.
00:18:16Why is everyone so nervous today?
00:18:18You still don't know that?
00:18:20Mr. Price is going to come back today.
00:18:22And remember to call him Mr. Price.
00:18:24Okay.
00:18:25Sounds like another arrogant boss to me.
00:18:33Okay, guys.
00:18:35Mr. Price arriving soon.
00:18:36Bye.
00:18:36Bye.
00:18:36Bye.
00:18:36Bye.
00:18:37Bye.
00:18:37Bye.
00:18:38Bye.
00:18:48Have I seen him before?
00:19:17Video Buettner?
00:19:20You're too obvious.
00:19:22Sorry.
00:19:23You're smart.
00:19:27Because the last female employee who tried to forgive him got fired.
00:19:30You know, he doesn't like people approaching him for his money.
00:19:32money. Yeah and Eileen definitely didn't reject you for your money. Fine. So Mr.
00:19:42Price is looking for a new executive assistant and rumor says it will be an
00:19:46internal recruitment. I think you will apply. Yeah. Why not? Mr. Price, the two final
00:19:55candidates are here to see you. Mr. Price, my name is Daniel Thompson and I have
00:20:00five years of experience here at the Price Group. Now, as you may have already
00:20:05heard, my uncle William Thompson has been in touch with... There's no rule for
00:20:10nepotism in this office. Mr. Price, please.
00:20:22It's nice to see you Mr. Price. My name is Eileen Smith and... Say your name again.
00:20:29Eileen. Eileen Smith. Although I've only been here a year, I have extensive
00:20:36experience in administrative work and... You're going to be my new personal assistant.
00:20:40Your personal assistant? Starting tomorrow.
00:20:47Anthony, how can you treat your wife like this? You left her behind for a whole year right after
00:20:58you got married. And you know, her grandma is my best friend and you make her sad. But
00:21:05you make me mad. You go see her right away. I will, grandma. I plan on seeing her tonight.
00:21:11You make sure that you do. Dean, can you help find me the necklace we auctioned
00:21:19in Paris? I'm going to use it tonight. You mean the toilette? The one you bought for
00:21:23two million dollars is ready, sir. What do you think, Eileen? Does that sound like a good
00:21:29gift for my wife? You're asking me? Yeah. It sounds nice.
00:21:38It's just nice. It's two million dollars. Jewelry is a good start. But I think you might want to do something for her to show your feelings for her.
00:21:51You haven't seen her in a year. Maybe buy her some flowers and take her out to dinner.
00:21:59I like this plan. Thank you. Would you be willing to make us some reservations?
00:22:05Yeah, of course, sir.
00:22:07Hey, I need to remind you again. Just don't be too close to him. Okay? People here are nosy.
00:22:21Oh, no. I... I just want to do my job and pay my bills. I swear, I don't have any feelings for Mr. Price. Okay?
00:22:31Good to hear.
00:22:40Oh, what a day. Behind every rich man is their incredibly talented PA.
00:22:48Hi, uh, who is this?
00:22:54Hey, it's Tony.
00:22:57Tony... who? Do I know you?
00:23:00You don't know me? So my wife doesn't even know my name?
00:23:05No. Uh, who is this?
00:23:08Green Bates, time for dinner! Thank you!
00:23:11Sorry, I gotta go. I think you dialed the wrong number.
00:23:25She... with another man?
00:23:28Wow! This looks delicious!
00:23:44So, congratulations on your promotion, Eileen. I've been dying to know, is the CEO as handsome and as sexy as they say he is?
00:23:53Okay, uh, yes. He's handsome and good-looking. And if you want to know more, you can ask his wife.
00:24:00Oh, he's married?
00:24:01Yes, and he is very devoted to his wife.
00:24:05He bought her a $2 million necklace.
00:24:08When I first met him, I had this weird feeling like I had, I don't know, seen him before.
00:24:13Well, let's not forget Eileen. You're technically married, too.
00:24:16What? Do you want Eileen to die, an old virgin, waiting for her future husband to come along to her nursing home?
00:24:24Oh, that jerk! Uh, what's his name?
00:24:27Oh, I don't even remember. You know, because I did it for my grandma.
00:24:32She really wanted to see me married, so I did it for her.
00:24:36I did it for her.
00:24:46Mr. Price doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, right?
00:24:50Could it be that something happened between him and Mrs. Price last night?
00:24:53Mr. Price last night?
00:25:01Ah, Anthony. Where did you find this gem?
00:25:05You're too kind, sir.
00:25:07Do you play pool swing?
00:25:09No, sir. I don't.
00:25:10You can get some water.
00:25:14Here's your water.
00:25:21Excuse me, sir.
00:25:22Take it easy. Relax.
00:25:25We're just having a little fun. We both know how a girl like you got to this position.
00:25:39Apologize to her.
00:25:41Now.
00:25:43Anthony, easy. Come on. We're just having a little fun.
00:25:45We know how this business works. Relax, alright?
00:25:47I'm not going to say it again. Apologize.
00:25:50Are you shitting me?
00:25:53I'm responsible for millions of profits in Pennington and Price, and you want me to apologize to this bitch?
00:25:58Bob, get this piece of shit out of here.
00:26:00Yes, sir. What? No. No.
00:26:02Take care of him. This is a misunderstanding.
00:26:03I don't want to see this piece of shit ever again. That's it.
00:26:07Mr. Price, come on. We can figure this out. Come on.
00:26:10From now on, Pennington and Price will no longer be doing business with Soulcraft Enterprise.
00:26:14Mr. Price, I really appreciate what you just did for me, but losing Soulcraft Enterprise will cause significant losses for the company.
00:26:26Eileen, I have to. You are my employee. I won't accept anybody disrespecting you. Do you understand?
00:26:32Yes, thank you, Mr. Price.
00:26:37Call me Anthony. Call me Anthony. Are you okay?
00:26:43I'm fine, Mr. Anthony.
00:26:46Anthony. Your work is done here today. Get some rest, okay?
00:26:55Anthony, now that we're canceling our cooperation with Soulcraft, you'll likely be free tomorrow. Would you like me to schedule something else?
00:27:05I heard a man talking the last time I called her, but it didn't mean anything. Maybe I was wrong.
00:27:10I think I'll have dinner with my wife. Can you schedule a table for two for us?
00:27:15Of course, sir.
00:27:24Hello, sir. The diamond ring is hidden in the roses. I reserved you a table at your favourite restaurant and bought you your favourite wine. You can check your email for more details. And I hope you have a lovely night.
00:27:37I hope you have a lovely night.
00:27:38I hope you have a lovely night.
00:27:39I hope you have a lovely night.
00:27:40How did you see your house?
00:27:41How are you?
00:27:42How are you?
00:27:44What?
00:27:45Everything are okay?
00:27:46Sir...
00:27:47The news regarding the Soulcraft Enterprise...
00:27:48Not that it has anything to do with you, I just...
00:27:49What?
00:27:50He's lucky he didn't lose both of his hands.
00:27:51So the rumours are true.
00:27:52He does have a connection with the Mafia.
00:27:53the news regarding the Soulcraft Enterprise.
00:27:57Not that it has anything to do with you, I just...
00:27:59He's lucky he didn't lose both of his hands.
00:28:03So the rumors are true.
00:28:05He does have a connection with the Mafia.
00:28:12Eileen.
00:28:16Have I scared you?
00:28:22Have I scared you?
00:28:23No, sir.
00:28:27I'm fine.
00:28:28You're sure?
00:28:31No matter what people say about you,
00:28:34I only believe what I see.
00:28:36You're kind to your family,
00:28:38and you're good to your employees.
00:28:41And...
00:28:41you protected me like nobody else has before.
00:28:46So...
00:28:48No.
00:28:49I have no reason to be scared of you.
00:28:51I couldn't even bring myself to see Eileen this year,
00:29:03because you ran off to England
00:29:05right after you exchanged your vows.
00:29:08Oh, her grandma is my best friend.
00:29:10So just bring Eileen Smith back here today.
00:29:15Wait.
00:29:16What'd you say her name was?
00:29:19Eileen Smith!
00:29:20You don't even know the name of your own wife?
00:29:24Eileen?
00:29:24Eileen?
00:29:25Eileen Smith.
00:29:28Eileen?
00:29:29Eileen Smith.
00:29:31You hear me?
00:29:32Don't worry, Grandma.
00:29:34I'm meeting her tonight.
00:29:36I'll bring her to you right after dinner.
00:29:42Okay.
00:29:42Okay.
00:29:43I need you to make sure my car is locked, okay?
00:29:46I'm making you dinner.
00:29:47Okay.
00:29:48I'll be right back.
00:29:48It's gonna be done soon.
00:29:49Got you.
00:29:5010 minutes.
00:29:50Mm-hmm.
00:29:52Okay.
00:30:20That was quick.
00:30:38Who are you?
00:30:41Is Eileen Smith here?
00:30:43Yeah, what's the matter?
00:30:44I, uh...
00:30:45Babe, who's there?
00:30:48Can we help you?
00:30:50So this is the woman I married.
00:30:51She doesn't recognize me,
00:30:53and she's actually cheating on me.
00:30:55Are you two together?
00:30:57That's none of your business, weirdo.
00:30:58Now leave, or I'll call the police.
00:31:20That guy kind of looks like Anthony.
00:31:27And these flowers, were they the ones I...
00:31:29Oh my...
00:31:30What?
00:31:31Have you seen a weird guy?
00:31:32Uh, yeah.
00:31:32You too?
00:31:33You guys are weird.
00:31:34Get inside.
00:31:35What?
00:31:35Hurry up.
00:31:36Ah, God.
00:31:37Okay, okay, okay.
00:31:39Let me just take my coat off.
00:31:42Okay.
00:31:42So a minute ago, there was just a weirdo at the door.
00:31:45He was asking questions about who lives here.
00:31:47He knows your name.
00:31:48It was really sus.
00:31:49We scared him off.
00:31:50Just so you know.
00:31:51Okay.
00:31:51But anyways, he was way too cute to be a robber.
00:31:54Sophie!
00:31:55Just saying.
00:31:57The flowers.
00:32:01The flowers.
00:32:05Someone got rejected.
00:32:07What a waste.
00:32:10My God, that's some cash right there.
00:32:25So where's Eileen, Anthony?
00:32:31She's with another man.
00:32:33What do you mean?
00:32:34She's with another man.
00:32:35She's not that kind of girl.
00:32:38I saw it with my own two eyes.
00:32:40It must be a misunderstanding.
00:32:42I called her as soon as I got in.
00:32:45And I heard another man's voice on the phone.
00:32:48I got to see her.
00:32:50He was there.
00:32:50And they were together.
00:32:52Intimately.
00:32:52You brought this on yourself.
00:32:57What are you going to do now?
00:32:59Divorce.
00:33:00Okay.
00:33:01I understand it's the right time to end it.
00:33:03Really.
00:33:03And even before the press finds out, it'll be hell.
00:33:06So.
00:33:07The press.
00:33:08Tony.
00:33:12Yeah.
00:33:12File those divorce papers for me immediately.
00:33:20Hey, Anthony.
00:33:21Do you need something?
00:33:22Hey, I'm Peter.
00:33:24Are you Eileen?
00:33:25Yeah.
00:33:26You must be his wife then.
00:33:28He's been calling your name when he's dead drunk.
00:33:31Oh, no, no.
00:33:32I'm his personal assistant.
00:33:33Oh, what?
00:33:34Anyways, listen.
00:33:36He's kind of wasted.
00:33:37We're at Crystal.
00:33:38Can you come pick him up, please?
00:33:41Okay.
00:33:43Here, sit here.
00:33:45Hey.
00:33:46Anybody?
00:33:46Okay, you are burning up.
00:33:49Um, I'm going to call your doctor.
00:33:51Okay?
00:33:52Yeah.
00:33:53Okay.
00:33:58Eileen.
00:33:58Why do you have such an awful name?
00:34:07What's wrong with my name?
00:34:09My grandma named me.
00:34:14Never mind.
00:34:16Okay.
00:34:18Anthony, you need some rest.
00:34:21That must be his wife.
00:34:22Okay.
00:34:22Okay.
00:34:28Should I hide?
00:34:39Why would you hide?
00:34:39Because your wife might see us?
00:34:43She won't.
00:34:49Anthony, you know you're allergic to alcohol.
00:34:51It's okay.
00:34:56She's on my side.
00:34:58Eileen, can you help me out?
00:35:01Sure.
00:35:02Anthony, take your shot off.
00:35:07Eileen, can you put this cream, please, on him?
00:35:10Okay.
00:35:12What?
00:35:13You didn't pay enough to do this.
00:35:18It's okay.
00:35:19No need for cream.
00:35:21Doctor's order.
00:35:24Otherwise, I will call Cynthia to convince you.
00:35:28I don't mind.
00:35:43Anthony, don't be such a baby.
00:35:47I don't bite.
00:35:51Trust me, you're not the only one wishing they weren't here right now.
00:35:55I can do it myself, actually.
00:35:57Sorry.
00:35:58Did I hurt you?
00:36:04That's enough.
00:36:05I will.
00:36:08Bob.
00:36:09Can you take her back now?
00:36:12You're the one making this weird.
00:36:25Oh, yeah, I can get you some more.
00:36:33Eileen, what did you do?
00:36:35I don't know, and maybe he's just embarrassed from being so drunk last night?
00:36:43Oh, have a look.
00:36:47I'll...
00:36:48Mr. Price, your divorce papers are ready.
00:36:54You won't be paying her any alimony since you have not lived together.
00:36:57Contact this woman tomorrow.
00:36:59Let her know I'll give her $10 million if she initiates the divorce.
00:37:02Come in.
00:37:12Mr. Price, do you need anything from me before I go?
00:37:19Mr. Price?
00:37:20You okay?
00:37:21Mr. Price, hey.
00:37:23I can't handle the darkness.
00:37:26Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, come here, come here, come here.
00:37:32Hey.
00:37:33Come here.
00:37:35It's me.
00:37:37It's me.
00:37:40Are you okay now, Mr. Price?
00:37:44I thought I told you to stop calling me that.
00:37:46I thought I...
00:37:49Are you still mad at me?
00:37:52Okay.
00:37:56Keep pushing, keep pushing, yes, yes.
00:38:01Push, keep pushing.
00:38:02It's coming.
00:38:07A year ago, my mother tried to move a suicide to get pregnant with a stranger's child.
00:38:16Push, push, push, push.
00:38:18Pushing, yes, yes.
00:38:19Good job, it's coming.
00:38:21It's coming, it's...
00:38:22It's...
00:38:22It's...
00:38:23It's...
00:38:24It's...
00:38:25It's...
00:38:26It's...
00:38:27It's...
00:38:28It's a beautiful girl.
00:38:31Oh, thank you, doctor.
00:38:32She's gorgeous.
00:38:36She's gorgeous.
00:38:44She's gorgeous.
00:38:49Hey!
00:38:50Hey!
00:38:53No!
00:38:54Give me back my child!
00:38:58Give me back my child!
00:39:06Don't go to sleep, Mom.
00:39:08Mom!
00:39:16Someone!
00:39:17Help!
00:39:18Help!
00:39:38Miss Robinson, the short TV channel you created is now worth over 100 million dollars.
00:39:46We also know that your child is with the Chapmans.
00:39:48We got this.
00:39:50Why do you insist on disguising as this ugly nanny just to get in there?
00:39:55The Chapman family is one of the wealthiest and hardest to access.
00:40:00Becoming a nanny was the only way to get close to him.
00:40:03Well, here's the situation.
00:40:09Lucien is engaged to the Harris Winnie.
00:40:13Your daughter, Maxine, has already chased over 200 nannies this month.
00:40:21You need to be cautious, Miss.
00:40:22I will.
00:40:24And from now on, I'm Elia.
00:40:29Maxine, my sweetheart.
00:40:32It's been six years and I'm finally meeting you.
00:40:39Sir?
00:40:41Is this the Chapman's Villa?
00:40:44Yeah, why?
00:40:45I'm here for the nanny interview.
00:40:48Stop!
00:40:50A country bumpkin like you, and you think you're gonna come here to look after Miss Maxine.
00:40:58Why is this woman so familiar?
00:41:00Don't be silly.
00:41:01Get lost.
00:41:03Why would you say that to me?
00:41:04Because you're cheap.
00:41:06Hey!
00:41:08What's going on here?
00:41:10I'm here for the nanny interview, and he's trying to kick me out.
00:41:13Do you really want to risk delaying the hiring of a new nanny?
00:41:18Yeah, that's what I thought.
00:41:19Let's get you inside.
00:41:22I don't want to eat it!
00:41:24It's cold!
00:41:25Miss, how can Maxine be so ungrateful?
00:41:28After all these years of care, she even dares to push you away.
00:41:32If it weren't for her, it could have been Mrs Chapman by now.
00:41:35Maxine ruins everything!
00:41:38Who are you?
00:41:43Get off the seat before you make it dirty!
00:41:47I'm here for the nanny interview.
00:41:50Oh my god!
00:41:52Now even an ugly troll like you thinks she can be the nanny for the Chapmans?
00:41:59Get out!
00:42:01I don't think I need to be pretty to babysit.
00:42:03How dare you!
00:42:04I'm the future hostess of this house.
00:42:12How dare you!
00:42:14You know what?
00:42:17If you kneel down and bark like a dog, I may let you go.
00:42:24I must stay by Maxine's side to protect her and find out the truth.
00:42:29Fine.
00:42:31What are you doing?
00:42:35I'm just interviewing the nanny.
00:42:41I wonder what my cousin will say of this.
00:42:43Ethan, can't you tell just by looking at her?
00:42:47She knows nothing about taking care of a child.
00:42:50And you?
00:42:51You can't even handle things in yourself.
00:42:53What makes you think you can judge someone else's abilities?
00:42:55Fine.
00:42:56I guess we can give her a chance.
00:42:58You will be qualified if Maxine accepts this from you.
00:43:08She pretends to care for Maxine like she serves her cold porridge.
00:43:13Who are you?
00:43:28I'm here to take care of you.
00:43:30You look nice. Will you play with me?
00:43:33Of course, but I'm just starving. How about a nice warm bowl of porridge?
00:43:38Mmm, it's really good. Now can you play with me?
00:43:49Wait!
00:43:51Well, Maxine, I need her to finish some things first.
00:43:56How dare you win Maxine's attention over me, you bitch!
00:44:13What's going on here, Winnie?
00:44:15I thought I told you to treat the nannies with more respect.
00:44:18Well, Sean, I was just interviewing her. Maxine got upset and she hit her!
00:44:22You dare to lay a hand on my daughter? Jack?
00:44:28I won't defend myself to see what kind of man Lucien really is.
00:44:32Hey! Jack, then go over.
00:44:35Lucien, Winnie is lying. This nanny gets along really well at Maxine.
00:44:40You can test her now if you don't believe me.
00:44:41Maxine, could you come help me to pick up the nuts? And I will make a cashew nut milk for you.
00:44:58Okay.
00:44:59Now, press the button. Stop!
00:45:16You dare ask Maxine to do the task?
00:45:20Winnie, even if you're my Beyonce, don't interfere with the interview.
00:45:26It's okay, I can do it.
00:45:29You're such a smart kid.
00:45:32You're such a smart kid.
00:45:34You're such a smart kid.
00:45:43Give it to your dad.
00:45:49Now, can we play?
00:45:51Of course!
00:45:52Miss Robinson, congratulations on passing the interview. Please take care of Maxine from now on.
00:46:09Okay. So, this is the man who was forced to give birth to his child and then he took her away. Bastard.
00:46:15Miss Robinson, did I do something wrong?
00:46:21Actually, yes. You are biased and believe everything that Winnie says. And you are not a competent father. Look at what you've done to Maxine. You are spoiling her!
00:46:33Huh. This guy is so angry. He is about to lash out at me.
00:46:40You're right. I'm sorry, Miss Robinson. I got it wrong earlier. Maxine is everything to me. And you're the first one she's taken to. Please, name your price.
00:46:52He isn't such a jerk after all. I'll see if he really cares about Maxine.
00:46:58Five thousand dollars.
00:47:00Five thousand?
00:47:02You think it's too much?
00:47:04No. Ten thousand dollars will be your monthly minimum salary. There will be other benefits too.
00:47:08Well, this is too much. I...
00:47:17No. The higher the salary, the more dedicated you'll be. So it's settled. Move in today.
00:47:23He is full of surprises. Deal.
00:47:28Deal.
00:47:33Have I met her somewhere before?
00:47:38How is it?
00:47:46Mmm. I love hot pizzas. It's the best. Thank you so much.
00:47:52Okay. Come closer. I'll read you a story.
00:48:00Once upon a time, there was a little girl named Lucy. She lived very happily with her family.
00:48:07Dad!
00:48:08Yes, darling?
00:48:09I love Miss Ariel so much. Can you two get married?
00:48:15Can you two get married?
00:48:17Maxine! How could you?
00:48:19Kids! Winnie, I have an appointment later. You should go home.
00:48:23Fine.
00:48:26Kids are always talking nonsense. Don't take it too seriously.
00:48:29Daddy, I am not talking nonsense and I will find a way to get you two married!
00:48:41Maxine.
00:48:44Hello?
00:48:45Dad, when are you coming back? I want to sleep beside you tonight.
00:48:50Oh. I'm coming home right now. Let's go home.
00:49:03Arya, I love you the most. Will you sleep here with me tonight? Please?
00:49:09What? Aren't you used to sleeping by yourself?
00:49:11Okay, let's go.
00:49:14Okay, let's go.
00:49:41Maxine?
00:49:54Can you sleep?
00:50:00This woman has the same s-
00:50:02I know. I'm dreaming of her again.
00:50:11Help me! Help me, please!
00:50:23Are you okay?
00:50:25Please, please save me.
00:50:28Don't worry. I got you.
00:50:31Nancy Dickerson, do you take Franklin Howard as your lovely wedded husband?
00:50:42Franklin! You know it's bad luck to see the bride before the wedding.
00:51:01Nancy, I came to remind you that this is a contract wedding, and you're just a substitute.
00:51:09I'm only doing this because Grandma wants me to.
00:51:13Always remember, you can never replace Anne.
00:51:18I do.
00:51:31Dad.
00:51:36I didn't know who else to tell, but, um...
00:51:42I'm pregnant. This isn't how it was supposed to go.
00:51:50Franklin and I, we have a contract marriage, and kids were never part of that conversation.
00:51:58It is never going to accept them.
00:52:09Where the hell are you?
00:52:11You were supposed to be at the hospital.
00:52:13You know Anne is dying, and she needs you.
00:52:15Franklin, I'm at the hospital already. I'm in my dad's room.
00:52:21Franklin?
00:52:22How irresponsible can you be?
00:52:29Anne is in need of a bone marrow transplant, and you're sitting here lollygagging?
00:52:35I swear to God, if anything happens to Anne, I will burn your entire family to the ground.
00:52:43Dr. Williams, I've brought the patient here. Please arrange the surgery as soon as possible.
00:52:56Franklin, listen to me. I cannot donate my bone marrow.
00:52:59Nancy, cut it out!
00:53:01Dr. Williams, I won't donate.
00:53:04Uh, Mr. Howard, this is her choice.
00:53:08This is the certificate that proves you agreed to donate your bone marrow.
00:53:14Okay, but that was a month ago, and...
00:53:17Look, I just found out that I'm pregnant.
00:53:21Let me remind you again that by signing this contract, you have sold yourself to me.
00:53:27Franklin, listen to me. I really have no choice.
00:53:31Yeah, you're right. You have no choice.
00:53:35Yeah.
00:53:37Yeah.
00:53:50Baby, luckily you're still here.
00:53:57Dad!
00:54:05What are you doing?
00:54:12Oh, your father passed away just 10 minutes ago, despite our best efforts.
00:54:18I'm so sorry.
00:54:19What?
00:54:20No.
00:54:22He was fine before my surgery.
00:54:24That's not possible.
00:54:25You're lying.
00:54:26Nancy!
00:54:27Nancy!
00:54:28Please!
00:54:29Don't!
00:54:30We'll give you a moment.
00:54:32No, my dad is not dead!
00:54:34They're lying!
00:54:35Nancy!
00:54:36He's gone.
00:54:38No, my dad is not dead.
00:54:41You're lying too!
00:54:43Nancy, you need to calm down.
00:54:46Let me go!
00:54:48Fine.
00:54:49You don't want to believe me, you can see for yourself.
00:54:55Nancy!
00:54:56William!
00:54:58So, Mrs. Howard just had surgery, but there was a problem.
00:55:03So, Mrs. Howard just had surgery, but there were some unexpected complications.
00:55:07It's not looking good.
00:55:09We need to be more mindful about her care.
00:55:17Anne?
00:55:18Franklin!
00:55:19Franklin!
00:55:20Where did you go?
00:55:21I got worried when I didn't see you after the procedure.
00:55:24Sorry.
00:55:25Nancy fainted when she heard the news of her father's passing.
00:55:27How is she now?
00:55:29You should stay with her.
00:55:31She needs you more.
00:55:32She's in a coma.
00:55:33It doesn't matter if I stay.
00:55:36I'll come over right away.
00:55:40Huh.
00:55:41You're awake.
00:55:43Ever hear the Chinese proverb, even if a pheasant flies to the tree, he can never become a phoenix?
00:55:57Divorce Franklin as soon as possible and I can still spare your life.
00:56:02Anne?
00:56:03You were the one who gave up on him in the first place and left the country.
00:56:10Otherwise, Franklin wouldn't even have married me and now that you're sick, you want him back.
00:56:16I have always been the one in his heart.
00:56:20He's willing to sacrifice your life to save mine.
00:56:24Do you know, Nancy, I paralyzed your father with a trap.
00:56:32He was a tough son of a bitch.
00:56:34Took a lot of effort to kill him.
00:56:37Oh, and also, I was the one who ran over your brother's legs.
00:56:44Didn't you know?
00:56:45You bitch.
00:56:47I hated you for having a loving father and a caring brother.
00:56:55When you, before your father departed, he was begging me to let you go.
00:57:00Oh, and by the way, your caring brother accosted me when he realized that I was after you.
00:57:06You should have heard the sound of his bones breaking when I ran him over.
00:57:12And he was screaming at me, I'll die a miserable death.
00:57:17You're not.
00:57:20Oh, I didn't hit me.
00:57:23I didn't hit me.
00:57:25I didn't hit me.
00:57:27Franklin, I came in here to comfort her, but as soon as I uttered a word, she hit me.
00:57:36I'm sorry, Nancy.
00:57:38I shouldn't have mentioned your father.
00:57:40And why the fuck are you lying?
00:57:43Nancy.
00:57:44And no.
00:57:45Stop with this madness.
00:57:47Franklin.
00:57:48She is the one who killed my father and ran over...
00:57:51Shut up!
00:57:52Okay?
00:57:53Just stop it.
00:57:55Let's go in.
00:57:59Why don't you believe me?
00:58:01How are you feeling?
00:58:18Franklin.
00:58:19Listen.
00:58:20Anne? She's the one who killed my father.
00:58:25Enough! Okay? Anne is so nice she wouldn't hurt a fly. Now look, what's gotten into you?
00:58:31I'm telling the truth, okay? She is the one who trolled me all of this.
00:58:36Your father died of natural causes. You freaked her out by acting that way. You need to go apologize to her.
00:58:46Did you come all the way over here to have me apologize to her?
00:58:49Anne was trying to comfort you, but instead you struck her. Comfort?
00:58:58Comfort. Oh, and you think this is funny? It's real hilarious, huh?
00:59:04What are you doing? Still think it's funny now? What?
00:59:09Don't think it's funny now? What are you doing?
00:59:12You're playing hard to get. I own you, remember?
00:59:16Why don't you go fuck your poor Anne?
00:59:19Mrs. Howard? It's time to take your medicine.
00:59:28If I find out that you haven't apologized to Anne by tomorrow,
00:59:33I will immediately stop paying for all of your brother's medical expenses.
00:59:40Why? Why have you never had any feelings for me?
00:59:49It's time to take care of me.
00:59:51It's time to take care of me.
00:59:58Finally, I get one clean program out of you.
01:00:02My double axel is totally under-rotated. I've got to fix that before regionals in five weeks.
01:00:07Don't be so hard on yourself, Callie. You're doing great.
01:00:10I personally thought it was amazing. Now, why don't you two take a break for the rest of the day?
01:00:17And we're going to practice again tomorrow.
01:00:19I think I might stay behind a little longer. I need to work on my toe loop.
01:00:34It's time to take care of me.
01:00:41Hi.
01:00:43Can I get you anything?
01:00:48You know what? Can I get a water and one of the soft process, please?
01:00:52You're Callie Anderson, right?
01:01:02Ah, the girl who won all the pair skating competitions.
01:01:06Yeah. I'm so sorry. I don't recognize you. Do you skate here?
01:01:12Yeah, yeah. Sorry, I'm actually on the college hockey team.
01:01:17Oh. Yeah, cool. I haven't had a chance to go to any of the games, but, um,
01:01:22you know, I hear the school's team is pretty good.
01:01:24We are. You should definitely come by sometime. You know, I'm actually the starting winger,
01:01:28and I'd love for you to come by and see us practice or play one of the games sometime.
01:01:32Oh, Callie. Yeah.
01:01:33Come quickly. Something happened to Garrett.
01:01:42How are you?
01:01:43Oh, my God. Well, what happened?
01:01:45He fell. He landed right on his knee. I heard it snap. We should take him to the hospital.
01:01:49Yeah.
01:01:50Do you have your wallet, sweetie? You're going to need your ID to get into the checked in.
01:01:54It's in my bag, in the boys' locker room.
01:01:56Okay. Well, let's get him out to the car, and then I'll go grab it from the locker room.
01:01:59Okay. Watch out. Watch out. Watch out.
01:02:01Watch out. Okay, just case.
01:02:02Go slow. Go slow.
01:02:11Just take him out to the car, okay? I'll be right there.
01:02:13Okay. Hey, hey, hey, hey. What's going on? Is everything okay?
01:02:18It's a carry. He fell, and it's his knee. I don't know. I think it's broken.
01:02:22What can I do to help?
01:02:24Um, yeah, he needs his bag. It's, uh, it's in the boys' locker room, but I don't know where it is.
01:02:29If you could just...
01:02:30Okay, okay. Come on. Let's go.
01:02:31Um, do you know which one it could be?
01:02:38I mean, he usually puts his stuff in here, but I don't know his combination.
01:02:43Oh my god, it's locked. Why didn't he tell me it was locked?
01:02:46I don't know. It might have been the broken knee.
01:02:50Bad joke. Bad joke. Sorry. Uh, guys usually do something pretty easy, like, um...
01:02:55His birthday. His birthday. Do you know what his birthday is?
01:02:57Uh... 5-6-0-0.
01:03:04Thank you! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Oh my god! Well, I don't even know your name!
01:03:13Parker. Parker Highland.
01:03:15Well, Parker Highland, I owe you one.
01:03:18Hey, just come to one of my hockey games, I guess. Watch me play sometime.
01:03:23I don't know. We'll call it even.
01:03:26I highly doubt that it's even, but you've got a deal.
01:03:37I should get going. They're probably waiting for me.
01:03:42Absolutely not. You did not do that.
01:03:50I have to go.
01:03:53Oh, no, no, no. Please don't let us stop you.
01:03:55I'm Monty, by the way.
01:03:59You know Kai?
01:04:00No, not really. I was just helping out with the locker.
01:04:04Have a good practice, babe.
01:04:17It's definitely broken, but he's not going to need surgery. But it is going to take some time to heal.
01:04:23So he won't be able to skate?
01:04:26No skating for at least four months.
01:04:29Four months? But Regionals is in a month. And Nationals is all over summer.
01:04:36You'll be ready by Nationals, but you're not going to be healed by Regionals. And if you skate too soon,
01:04:41you're just going to make your injury even worse.
01:04:46I'm so sorry, Callie. I screwed this all up.
01:04:49No, no. Garrett, you didn't. It was just an accident.
01:04:54Garrett, don't worry. I'll fix this.
01:04:59This is our senior year of college. Maybe our last chance to skate together again.
01:05:04Don't worry. I mean, it's not like I can go to Nationals without a partner for Regionals.
01:05:08Okay, you two don't worry about that. I'm going to find a replacement for Callie for Nationals.
01:05:16And Garrett, I want you to focus on getting better.
01:05:26So, Highland, Highland, inquiring minds want to know, what exactly did we walk in on this morning?
01:05:35What exactly did we walk in on this morning?
01:05:38Nothing, guys. I was just helping her out. Come on now.
01:05:42Yeah, you were just helping her out?
01:05:45Look, man. Her partner broke his damn knee.
01:05:50She needed to get into the locker so she could get the bag out. That's all it was. Nothing else.
01:05:56Better be careful. Conrad's got dibs on her.
01:05:59Callie? Yeah, no way. That's over. Been there, done that.
01:06:03Oh, yeah. Conrad likes to keep his puck bunnies just that. Puck bunnies.
01:06:08Big dog's gotta eat. Gotta hunt them puck bunnies.
01:06:11Man, like me, just, you know, needs more than one lady and she couldn't handle it.
01:06:15She was obsessed. It was kind of creepy.
01:06:17Yeah, sure she was.
01:06:18Hey, nice practice today, boys. You looked really great out there. Way to attack the ice
01:06:26and move the puck toward the goal. Now, as you all know, the big conference game is coming up in a
01:06:30couple of weeks. This will determine whether or not we move on to the championships.
01:06:34And at this point, the way we're looking, we have a good chance of getting there!
01:06:41Yeah!
01:06:42Yeah!
01:06:43Woo!
01:06:44All right, keep up the good work. All right.
01:06:50Hey.
01:06:50Hey.
01:06:51Hey.
01:06:51I need your help.
01:06:52Sure, what is it?
01:06:54Garrett's out.
01:06:55What happened?
01:06:57He fell, broke his knee. Four months.
01:06:59Who's going to skate with Callie?
01:07:02I don't know what I'm supposed to do, Mark. I called every rink in the Tri-State area.
01:07:07There's not one single male skater available.
01:07:11At this point, you might as well just use one of my players.
01:07:14One of your players.
01:07:17One of your players.
01:07:20That's it.
01:07:22We'll use one of your hockey players to skate with her.
01:07:24No, Darlene. They've got too much going on as it is. They've got important games coming up.
01:07:30I'm desperate. I'm at the end of my rope.
01:07:34I'll pay.
01:07:36Pay then? Don't waste your money.
01:07:40Mari, Callie's been working towards this her entire life.
01:07:45This is her last nationals before she heads off to college. She's going to...
01:07:48She's being desperate. This is her last nationals before she heads off to college.
01:07:53How much are we talking here?
01:07:55One hundred thousand dollars.
01:07:59Is that enough?
01:08:00One hundred thousand dollars?
01:08:03One hundred thousand dollars.
01:08:05You're crazy.
01:08:09Got anyone in mind?
01:08:12Hey, Coach Mike, I was just...
01:08:14Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't realize you had a meeting going on here now.
01:08:20Need some extra cash, kid?
01:08:22Yeah.
01:08:24Great. And be at the ice rink at 9am, sharp Wednesday morning.
01:08:32And you'll be a hundred grand richer.
01:08:33Coach, was she serious?
01:08:44What's this all about?
01:08:46She is.
01:08:47One of her male skaters broke his knee and she needs a replacement.
01:08:51Now, you don't have to do this.
01:08:53I'll do it.
01:08:54Are you serious?
01:08:56Yes.
01:08:56Yes.
