00:00:00Oh, what do you think?
00:00:10Hey!
00:00:11I hope you can get your head out of these architecture books, Holly, and finally go out with me.
00:00:16Never in a million years, Dirk Dingle.
00:00:19I want your book back. Why don't you come and get it?
00:00:23Come on. Hey!
00:00:25Listen, don't fight this, okay? We will be together eventually.
00:00:28Get off me!
00:00:30Hey, don't fight me, okay?
00:00:37Ow!
00:00:38You bitch!
00:00:42She said she's not interested, bro!
00:00:45Rick Brody. Oh, you always gotta play the hero, huh?
00:00:48Yeah, go ahead. You're one demerit away from getting thrown out of this school.
00:00:52You want your book back so bad?
00:00:54Alright.
00:00:55You take it.
00:00:57No!
00:00:59No, this is gonna cost a fortune to replace!
00:01:11You can have mine.
00:01:13No, I couldn't.
00:01:15Yeah, you could. I've seen you in class. You are brilliant. I'm gonna get way more use out of this than I ever would.
00:01:25Do you want to grab lunch? Or keep studying?
00:01:39Yeah.
00:01:40Yeah.
00:01:41Yeah.
00:01:42Grab lunch.
00:01:43We're doing great.
00:01:45How many of you?
00:01:46How many of you are?
00:01:47I think I'm gonna get in class.
00:01:49I'm gonna get in class.
00:01:50What?
00:01:51When did you two get back from the honeymoon?
00:01:52Just an hour ago.
00:01:53And this was waiting for me when I got back.
00:01:55when I got back. I got in, Daddy. The Young Architects Program in Paris. It's a dream come true.
00:02:02And when we get back, we're gonna rebuild this town. Together.
00:02:11Allie, give me some ice. Sure, Daddy.
00:02:17Are you two insane? Rebuild this town? This town is dying,
00:02:23and I want my daughter as far away from it as possible.
00:02:27Sir, we have a plan. We even applied to adopt a child.
00:02:32Even more reason to end this now before you keep her trapped here forever.
00:02:37I promised Allie's mother before she passed away that I would take care of our daughter.
00:02:41She deserves more than this two-bit town, and quite frankly, she deserves more than you.
00:02:47But sir, I love her more than anything. I promise I will always take care of her.
00:02:53And you think that's important?
00:02:56She's going to be a world-class architect.
00:03:00You, you're... you're a local boy with a hammer.
00:03:03If you truly loved her, you'd let her go.
00:03:06Let her make something of herself!
00:03:09Deep down, you know I'm right.
00:03:11Here.
00:03:17This should be enough.
00:03:19I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:26I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:32For Mr. and Mrs. Craig Brody. We just got married.
00:03:36I got into an architecture program at Paris, and my new husband is coming with me.
00:03:42Actually, I'm not coming with you, Allie.
00:03:45What? Why?
00:03:47You think I want to just sit around while you study crumbling buildings?
00:03:51You're never going to be a real architect.
00:03:53The world is going to chew you up and spit you out, and it's going to be too pathetic for me to watch.
00:03:59Um, what, but... no, what about our plans?
00:04:07We were trying to start a family to get...
00:04:09No, the last person I'd want to start a family with is you, Allie.
00:04:14I want a divorce.
00:04:16No, no, but where is this coming from?
00:04:21Hi, Craig baby.
00:04:23Are you seeing Trista now?
00:04:25Yeah, just, just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:04:29Craig, no, what?
00:04:34I thought you believed in me.
00:04:37Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:43Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:48Yes, but I'd like to change my ticket to one way.
00:04:50Miss Filtner! Miss Filtner, you were just recognized as Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:05:03and your company is taking the New York architecture scene by storm. What's next for you?
00:05:08Um, I don't know. Taking over the world?
00:05:11Well, you and your boyfriend, billionaire politician Ned Vogel are quite the power couple.
00:05:16He must be so proud.
00:05:18I'm not doing any of this for a man's approval.
00:05:20Well, word on the street is he's planning on proposing.
00:05:23You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
00:05:27The luckiest girl in the world?
00:05:29Right.
00:05:29Miss Filtner!
00:05:41Oh my god.
00:05:47Allie Bildner, you are the most impressive woman I've ever met.
00:05:52You are my soul mate.
00:06:05Will you marry me?
00:06:10Will you marry me?
00:06:12How are you both here? I love you more than anything.
00:06:15You are my soul mate and the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:06:18Will you make me the luckiest man in the world and marry me?
00:06:22Allie? Allie?
00:06:26Really leaving me to sweat here.
00:06:28And this suit is way too expensive for that.
00:06:30The most eligible bachelor in the country is proposing to me.
00:06:34So why am I thinking about Craig?
00:06:36He was a jerk and a liar.
00:06:38And I need to move on with my life.
00:06:43Of course I'll marry you.
00:06:52This ring must have cost a fortune.
00:06:56You're so lucky.
00:06:58When's the wedding?
00:06:59Ned wants to get married as soon as possible.
00:07:02Oh, you know, Allie would love a hot tea.
00:07:08We have a problem.
00:07:09And that is?
00:07:10You're already married to a Craig Brody.
00:07:19He never signed the divorce papers?
00:07:22So you're still married?
00:07:26He was my high school sweetheart.
00:07:29We got married.
00:07:32But it didn't work out.
00:07:33I thought he had signed the divorce papers.
00:07:35You thought?
00:07:36Yes.
00:07:36Allie, the election is in six weeks.
00:07:39This could ruin my campaign.
00:07:41Just imagine the headlines.
00:07:42Senator's fiancee.
00:07:43Already a wife?
00:07:44I will get him to sign the papers.
00:07:46You better.
00:07:48Or there won't be a future for us, Allie.
00:07:50I gotta take this.
00:07:53It's my campaign manager.
00:07:55But this is important.
00:07:57Yeah, so is this.
00:08:01Clarence.
00:08:02What's going on, buddy?
00:08:02Talk to me.
00:08:08Motherfucker.
00:08:17I never thought I'd hear from you again, huh?
00:08:34Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:35So, you really ended it with her.
00:08:39What does it look like?
00:08:40Yeah.
00:08:43She's really gone.
00:08:45Good.
00:08:46So, there's this romantic movie playing at Cinema Six.
00:08:50I thought me and you can go and watch and we can cuddle.
00:08:54We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:08:57My heart still belongs to Allie.
00:08:59And it always will.
00:09:02I don't understand.
00:09:03Sometimes, when you truly love someone,
00:09:08you have to let them go.
00:09:11No matter how much it hurts.
00:09:15Thank you for your help.
00:09:20I hate you, Hallie Brody!
00:09:31Your call has been forwarded to an automatic...
00:09:35Fine.
00:09:37You want me to come after you, Craig Brody?
00:09:41I will.
00:09:42Leave the bag.
00:09:52I'll be five minutes.
00:10:03It's been seven years, Craig Brody, and you broke my heart.
00:10:16Somehow, the pieces still beat for you.
00:10:19Allie!
00:10:28What are you doing here, Allie?
00:10:29Well, someone never signed the divorce papers, so we're still married.
00:10:34Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:37I can't sign them.
00:10:38You can't?
00:10:40It's complicated.
00:10:41What?
00:10:42Then let me make it simple.
00:10:43I'm supposed to get married to, God, the man of my dreams, in six weeks.
00:10:48Only, the funny thing is, my ex-husband never signed the divorce papers.
00:10:54You're engaged.
00:10:55Yes, Craig!
00:10:56Or did you think I would never move on from you?
00:10:59Sign the papers!
00:11:00I can't sign them.
00:11:01Why not?
00:11:02There's something I have to tell you.
00:11:04Mommy!
00:11:05Mommy!
00:11:07Oh, oh, ah.
00:11:13I can't sign them.
00:11:15Why not?
00:11:16Because we have a daughter together, and I never told you.
00:11:25You're finally approved.
00:11:28After all this time.
00:11:31You even remember?
00:11:35We're sorry.
00:11:39You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:11:43Mommy!
00:11:45I'm sorry, but, um, I'm not your mommy.
00:11:49Yes, you are.
00:11:50You are my mommy.
00:11:51Tell her, Daddy.
00:11:52Uh...
00:11:53Uh, Craig?
00:11:54What is she talking about?
00:11:55Natalie, why don't you go grab the nest?
00:11:57Because I said we'd go catch bullfrogs, remember?
00:11:59Okay.
00:12:00Is Mommy coming with us?
00:12:02No, Mommy and Daddy need to have a chat.
00:12:04All right?
00:12:04It's okay, Daddy.
00:12:09Want to tell me what the hell is going on?
00:12:12Well...
00:12:17Allie didn't come here to get back together.
00:12:19She came here to divorce me, and I have to let her move on.
00:12:23I tracked you down in the library in New York, and you were there with another guy.
00:12:34You looked happy.
00:12:37You looked free.
00:12:46I was going to go to the library in New York.
00:12:48I was going to go to the library in New York.
00:12:49I'm going to go to the library in New York.
00:12:50I'm going to go to the library in New York.
00:12:51I'll sign them.
00:12:52You know kids.
00:12:54Active imagination.
00:12:56She thinks every woman who comes on the farm is her mom.
00:12:59All right, listen.
00:13:00Just leave the papers on the counter and I'll sign them.
00:13:03I have a flight back to New York in three hours and I am not leaving here without these papers
00:13:07signed.
00:13:07Well, I'm not signing them until I read them over first.
00:13:11Why, Craig?
00:13:13It's not like you have anything that I want.
00:13:15What do you have that I could possibly want?
00:13:19I'm ready, Daddy.
00:13:21Okay, um, I promise I'll sign them, okay?
00:13:24I know better than to trust your promises, Craig.
00:13:27I got one for you too, Mommy.
00:13:29Oh, God.
00:13:30So, Miss Allie is going back to New York, so it's just going to be you and me and get up.
00:13:34Like always.
00:13:35Okay.
00:13:37I'm sorry.
00:13:38Just leave them in the living room.
00:13:40I'm sorry.
00:13:40Let's go, Mom.
00:14:10Go, go, go!
00:14:12Wait!
00:14:14Oh, no cell service still?
00:14:27Oh!
00:14:27Guess I'm walking.
00:14:32Mommy, help!
00:14:33Daddy's hurt!
00:14:38What happened?
00:14:39Daddy got bit by a big snake!
00:14:41Yeah.
00:14:41Yeah.
00:14:43Oh.
00:14:45Corporate?
00:14:45Mm-hmm.
00:14:46What?
00:14:51Daddy!
00:14:53You still remember how to draw out snake venom?
00:14:55Well, I haven't forgotten everything you taught me, Craig Brody.
00:15:04Here, keep the pressure on.
00:15:06Okay.
00:15:08Your daddy will be fine.
00:15:10I promise.
00:15:10I promise.
00:15:18Hold still.
00:15:22Okay.
00:15:24Keep the pressure on.
00:15:25I promise.
00:15:25I promise.
00:15:26I promise.
00:15:26I promise.
00:15:27I promise.
00:15:31So, your daughter.
00:15:32Mm-hmm.
00:15:33She looks about...
00:15:35Seven years old.
00:15:37So, she's Trista's.
00:15:39So, she's Trista's.
00:15:41No.
00:15:42She's yours.
00:15:45She's yours.
00:15:47So, if she's not Trista's, how many other women were you sleeping with while we were together?
00:15:53I don't care if you were with the entire town.
00:15:56Just, um, sign the papers, Craig, and we can put this sham of marriage behind us.
00:16:00You've got to be kidding me.
00:16:02Where did they go?
00:16:03Daddy's had this photo in his nightstand for seven years, which means he still loves her.
00:16:09And if they loved each other once, they can love each other again.
00:16:13They just need another chance.
00:16:25Where are the divorce papers?
00:16:28No.
00:16:28No.
00:16:29I will check into the Picoi in the fort tonight.
00:16:41And we can look for the divorce papers tomorrow.
00:16:43The Picoi closed years ago.
00:16:46There was always your father's.
00:16:48That's, um, not an option.
00:16:51The way she said that, that something happened between her and her father.
00:16:55Well, unless you want to stay outside, I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:05I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:09Fine, but I'm not staying in your room.
00:17:11I wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:15You can stay in my room with me and Lucy.
00:17:17There you go.
00:17:28Wow.
00:17:29I love your room.
00:17:30Thanks.
00:17:30My daddy helped me decorate it.
00:17:32I know it hasn't been easy trying to start a family, but one day the adoption will go through.
00:17:54We're going to have that baby, and you will be the most amazing one.
00:18:09Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:32That logo, it's from the adoption agency.
00:18:37Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:39That logo, it's from the adoption agency.
00:18:43Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:51I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:19:05I'm so sure about this film, babe in the career.
00:19:06Can you see the magic clinic?
00:19:08I'm not sure.
00:19:08I'm not sure about this film until you're going in the water.
00:19:09What do I do after the tour, please?
00:19:12If you worry.
00:19:14You know what I'm doing.
00:19:15It's funny.
00:19:15I'm not sure about it.
00:19:16We're going to be crédible.
00:19:17Here are you.
00:19:28How do I do?
00:19:28Why do I?
00:19:29We're going to be crédible on the surface?
00:19:30I'm not sure about it.
00:19:31Because I'm still working.
00:19:31It's nothing I haven't seen before.
00:19:45Daddy?
00:19:47Oh, God.
00:19:51Do you know where McHaley went?
00:19:53Uh, no.
00:19:54I haven't seen her.
00:19:56Do you think she left us, Daddy?
00:19:58You know what?
00:19:59Just give me five minutes and I'll help you look.
00:20:01Okay, sweetie?
00:20:03Okay, Daddy.
00:20:08Ow!
00:20:08Oh, my God.
00:20:27Craig, I'm engaged to someone else.
00:20:31You're also married to me.
00:20:36How could this get any mess here?
00:20:44I should go.
00:20:45Hey.
00:21:00Hey.
00:21:02Hey.
00:21:03So, I found the divorce papers.
00:21:05Natalie!
00:21:06I think she wants to keep us married.
00:21:12Would that be such a bad thing?
00:21:14What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:28Craig and Trista are still together?
00:21:31I mean...
00:21:32Hi, baby.
00:21:32I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
00:21:34I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
00:21:35What a pleasant surprise.
00:21:36What a pleasant surprise.
00:21:37Hallie.
00:21:38Hi.
00:21:39Uh, excuse me.
00:21:40What the fuck are you doing here?
00:21:46Craig?
00:21:47It's none of your business.
00:21:49Actually, where Craig's concerned, it is.
00:21:52So, you and Craig are still together?
00:21:56We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:22:00My heart still belongs to Hallie.
00:22:02And it always will.
00:22:06Still together?
00:22:07Why, of course we're still together.
00:22:10We've been inseparable.
00:22:11Ever since that day at the airport.
00:22:13The day that Craig chose me over you.
00:22:16Don't tell me you've forgotten.
00:22:20How could I?
00:22:22It was the worst day of my life.
00:22:24Hmm.
00:22:25It's not right to hear that.
00:22:26Because it was a pretty good day for me.
00:22:29I'm sure it was.
00:22:30Listen.
00:22:31If you're here to win Craig back, it's too late.
00:22:33Because I'm pretty sure he's planning on proposing to me.
00:22:36Any day now.
00:22:37So, I need you to get your skinny little ass out of my town.
00:22:41Okay?
00:22:42Come here.
00:22:43Take a pastry for the bread.
00:22:45I insist.
00:22:51Eat it.
00:22:52Because it's the closest you'll get to tasting Craig's mouth ever again.
00:22:59Oh my god!
00:23:02You New York bitch!
00:23:04Oh my god!
00:23:11You think you can just waltz back in here and pick up where you left off?
00:23:15Craig will always choose me over you.
00:23:22What the hell is going on?
00:23:24Help my ankle!
00:23:25Help my ankle!
00:23:27That crazy bitch!
00:23:31Like I said, he will always choose me over you.
00:23:35Are you okay?
00:23:36All right.
00:23:37Why are you asking her?
00:23:38I'm the one who's injured.
00:23:42All I did was offer her a scone and then she called it dog food and then she kicked me.
00:23:49Aw.
00:23:50Poor little thing.
00:23:51You got...
00:23:52You got scone all over you.
00:23:53It's okay, Hallie.
00:23:54I forgive you.
00:23:55Even if you did break my leg.
00:23:58I didn't touch you.
00:23:59I need to put your petty jealousy aside.
00:24:02Craig divorced you for a reason.
00:24:04I'm coming back here to diaper him back is just pathetic.
00:24:09Actually, I didn't divorce Hallie.
00:24:12She's still my wife.
00:24:14What?
00:24:16Hallie is still my wife.
00:24:19Which means you just insulted her in her own house.
00:24:22So please leave Trista.
00:24:25Wait baby, this is just one big misunderstanding.
00:24:28You heard my daddy get out of our house before we call the cops.
00:24:34Oh my god, ew.
00:24:35What is that disgusting creature?
00:24:37I'm gonna vomit.
00:24:39Good job Lucy.
00:24:41You know what, I should go.
00:24:43Hallie...
00:24:45It was nice meeting you, Natalie.
00:24:51I'm sorry.
00:24:58Lulu.
00:24:59Call me back.
00:25:02Hallie...
00:25:04You know, I never understood why you left me for Trista.
00:25:06Of all people, you knew I couldn't stand her.
00:25:10That's why I didn't.
00:25:12Because I knew it would hurt me most.
00:25:15Seeing her again, it just reminded me of the worst day of my life.
00:25:20Hallie...
00:25:22There's something I need to tell you about Trista.
00:25:27I don't want to talk about Trista anymore, okay? I have to take this.
00:25:30Lulu, can you email me another copy of the divorce papers ASAP?
00:25:33Another copy?
00:25:34What happened to the originals?
00:25:36Uh, it's a long story.
00:25:39Can you do it?
00:25:41It's Saturday.
00:25:43City Hall's closed until Monday. You're gonna need a certified copy.
00:25:47I think you're gonna have to stay the weekend there, boss.
00:25:49I hope that's not a big problem.
00:25:53No, uh, of course not.
00:25:55Well, looks like I am staying until Monday.
00:25:58Until I can get a new copy of the divorce papers.
00:26:01I don't have anything.
00:26:03Not a change of clothes, not even a toothbrush.
00:26:05Can you just drive me to the store?
00:26:07Okay.
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:09Hey, Miss Hallie is staying.
00:26:28Stop looking at him like that, Hallie.
00:26:31You can't have feelings for him.
00:26:34Even if he is... your husband.
00:26:39I can't believe how bad the town looks.
00:26:48When the factory closed, half the stores went with it.
00:26:53At least Martha's Diner is still here.
00:26:55Martha May makes the best burgers in the world.
00:26:58Yeah.
00:27:00Remember our crazy dream?
00:27:03Fix this place up?
00:27:04Of course I do.
00:27:06So?
00:27:08You probably have big plans after graduation.
00:27:11I'm applying to an architecture program in Paris.
00:27:14I doubt I'll get it, though.
00:27:16It's really competitive.
00:27:18Of course you will. I mean,
00:27:20they'd be fools not to take you.
00:27:22You think so?
00:27:23Oh, yeah, I know so.
00:27:25Well, after that, I want to come back here.
00:27:27Fix this town up.
00:27:28I am pretty good with a hammer.
00:27:31I need an assistant.
00:27:33How about a partner?
00:27:35Oh.
00:27:39Sounds perfect.
00:27:41Man, I could really go for a burger right now.
00:27:44I have an idea.
00:27:45Where are you taking me, Craig Brody?
00:27:53A picnic.
00:27:55Just like old times.
00:27:57Allow me.
00:27:59Oh.
00:28:05I hate you, Helly!
00:28:06Oh, Helly!
00:28:12Wow, it's just like in high school.
00:28:15Still looks the same, doesn't it?
00:28:18And feels the same.
00:28:20I love you, Helly Bildner.
00:28:22I want you to know
00:28:24I will never, ever hurt you.
00:28:27I'm so sorry for hurting you, Helly.
00:28:30Oh, Helly.
00:28:33Natalie and I were supposed to eat these on our fishing trip.
00:28:37You?
00:28:39I think Sheila forgave me.
00:28:42Triangles.
00:28:44Just the way you tell me.
00:28:46It's Natalie's favorite way to eat them too.
00:28:48Oh, I have to take this.
00:28:50Hey.
00:28:52Hally, the press wants to know why we haven't been seen together.
00:28:55They think we broke up.
00:28:57You need to get back here right now.
00:29:01I-I can't yet.
00:29:04I need to get new divorce papers in city halls closed until Monday.
00:29:08New divorce papers? What?
00:29:10Your location says you're at your old high school.
00:29:12What the hell is going on?
00:29:14It's... complicated.
00:29:17No, it is not complicated.
00:29:19Okay, look.
00:29:21I am pulling in a favor from the governor.
00:29:23We're going to get those papers expedited
00:29:25and we are going to force that husband of yours into signing them if we have to.
00:29:28I need you on the next flight back in an hour.
00:29:33In a couple?
00:29:34Yeah.
00:29:35That's not going to be a problem, is it?
00:29:39Uh, of course not.
00:29:43Um, I have to go.
00:29:47You wouldn't mind taking me to the airport, would you?
00:29:49Of course not.
00:29:59Just... sign the papers when you get them, Craig.
00:30:03Okay? It's the least you can do.
00:30:05This is my last chance to tell her the truth.
00:30:09Well...
00:30:11Goodbye.
00:30:13I guess.
00:30:14Holly, I...
00:30:15No, Craig.
00:30:16Oh, I'm done waiting.
00:30:18It's time for me to move on.
00:30:19Hello?
00:30:25What?
00:30:27Are you sure?
00:30:29Okay.
00:30:30Okay.
00:30:31Um...
00:30:32Um, it's...
00:30:33my father.
00:30:34He's...
00:30:35had a stroke.
00:30:36He's at the community hospital.
00:30:37Oh, come on.
00:30:38I'll drive you.
00:30:41Unless you're getting on that flight.
00:30:44No, I...
00:30:45No, of course not.
00:30:46Okay, good, good, good.
00:30:47Come on.
00:30:50What's going on?
00:30:51The neighbor found him this morning, on the lawn.
00:30:54Hallie!
00:30:55I didn't expect to see you here.
00:30:57Is he going to be okay?
00:30:58We're doing the best we can, but it's...
00:31:00difficult, considering his condition.
00:31:03His condition?
00:31:04Your father is dying, Hallie.
00:31:06Of kidney failure.
00:31:11How long does he have?
00:31:13Couple weeks.
00:31:14Maybe a month.
00:31:15I hope we're planning on sticking around this time.
00:31:19Excuse me.
00:31:24I had no idea.
00:31:26You didn't?
00:31:27When's the last time you saw him?
00:31:32Seven years ago.
00:31:39Hallie!
00:31:41Craig's divorcing me.
00:31:43He's been cheating on me.
00:31:45I knew that bastard wasn't good enough for you.
00:31:48At least you found out before he followed you to Paris.
00:31:51No, I'm not going to Paris.
00:31:53I can't get on that plane.
00:31:55What?
00:31:57Craig was right.
00:31:58I'm not...
00:31:59I'm not a real architect.
00:32:00Everyone's gonna laugh at me.
00:32:02You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:04But, Daddy, I...
00:32:05If you come back now, you'll be a laughing stock.
00:32:08You...
00:32:09You'll be a divorced loser.
00:32:10No one will want you.
00:32:11Not Craig.
00:32:13Not even me.
00:32:16Daddy?
00:32:18You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:20I never want to see you again.
00:32:22You are a disgrace!
00:32:23Nobody's ever been so mean to me.
00:32:38Except you.
00:32:39That is...
00:32:41God, it's like the two of you were in cahoots.
00:32:44Should I tell her that we were?
00:32:47If I tell her the truth,
00:32:49she'll never forgive her dying father.
00:32:52Didn't work out for the best, though.
00:32:55I mean, look at the life you've built for yourself.
00:32:58You deserve more than this small town.
00:33:01You and my father certainly made it easy to leave.
00:33:06What's going on?
00:33:08Power grid has been happening for weeks.
00:33:15Natalie?
00:33:16Daddy?
00:33:18I'm scared.
00:33:19It's dark and there's someone outside.
00:33:21I'll be right there.
00:33:22Keep the doors locked.
00:33:24I have to go.
00:33:25I'm coming with you.
00:33:26Hallie, this isn't something that...
00:33:27I'm coming with you.
00:33:28Okay.
00:33:29Okay, come on.
00:33:33Natalie?
00:33:35Oh my god.
00:33:37Oh my god.
00:33:41I was so scared.
00:33:43It's okay.
00:33:44It's okay.
00:33:45You're okay.
00:33:46You've been raccoons.
00:33:47Broken through the window.
00:33:50Probably those scones, huh?
00:33:52Yeah.
00:33:54I'm so sorry for leaving you alone for so long.
00:33:56Oh, it's my fault.
00:33:58No, no, no, no.
00:33:59I was happy to help, but...
00:34:01I think you missed your flight.
00:34:02You missed your flight.
00:34:03So you're saying we can watch a movie together?
00:34:07I, uh, guess we can.
00:34:15Miss Haley, come closer.
00:34:16Daddy, come closer.
00:34:17Daddy, come closer.
00:34:21Daddy, come closer.
00:34:26Isn't this great?
00:34:27Just the three of us.
00:34:28This prank always makes my daddy fall asleep.
00:34:38Yeah.
00:34:39I'm so scared.
00:34:40Let's go.
00:34:41No, no.
00:34:42I'm so scared.
00:34:43No, no.
00:34:45I'm so scared.
00:34:46No.
00:34:47No, no.
00:34:48No, no, no.
00:34:49No.
00:34:50No, no, no.
00:34:51No.
00:34:52No, no, no.
00:34:53Oh my god.
00:34:54I love you, Allie Brody.
00:35:12Why does this feel so right?
00:35:19He's still my husband.
00:35:20And I know every freckle on his body.
00:35:24But no, I'm divorcing him and marrying someone else.
00:35:33Oh my god.
00:35:37Oh my god.
00:35:42Allie.
00:35:46Mommy and Daddy, I made breakfast.
00:35:55Do you like it?
00:35:56I made pancakes.
00:35:58They are excellent, sweetie.
00:36:02This is what families do, they eat breakfast together.
00:36:10What's up?
00:36:15There's some stupid birthday invitation.
00:36:18All the kids from school will be there, but I'm not going.
00:36:21Why not?
00:36:22Because everyone always says if I had a mom, she'd help me pick up better gifts.
00:36:29And they say I'm just a momless loser.
00:36:31You are not a momless loser, Natalie.
00:36:35And don't let anyone make you feel less than you are.
00:36:41I grew up without a mom too, you know.
00:36:44And it was hard, but I was always able to rely on my dad.
00:36:50Just like you can.
00:36:54And by the way, your dad is worth a thousand movies.
00:36:59That's true.
00:37:00She checked.
00:37:02So go to that party with your head held high.
00:37:05No one can take your power from you unless you let them.
00:37:12Okay, Miss Allie, I'll go to the party, thanks.
00:37:20Oh, no.
00:37:24Excuse me, um, I have to take this.
00:37:32I see you got my messages.
00:37:35Delete that photo, Trista.
00:37:37Oh, which one?
00:37:38Because I have plenty.
00:37:41What's the problem?
00:37:43A rich fiancé isn't enough for you, so you have to come back and seduce your husband too.
00:37:48I didn't come here to get back with Craig, Trista.
00:37:50I came here to divorce him?
00:37:52Really?
00:37:53Then prove it.
00:37:55Walk away now and leave this town for good.
00:37:58Otherwise, these photos will go to the senator.
00:38:03I could ruin you, Hallie.
00:38:07So don't mess with my life.
00:38:09And I won't mess with yours.
00:38:18Hey.
00:38:19Everything okay?
00:38:20Fine.
00:38:21Who are you talking to?
00:38:23Oh, uh, my, uh, fiancé's lawyer.
00:38:26He'll be by with new divorce papers.
00:38:29Um, I have to go.
00:38:31Right now?
00:38:32Yes.
00:38:33I'm sorry, but yes.
00:38:34Can you call me a cab?
00:38:35Hallie.
00:38:36Call me a cab.
00:38:37Craig.
00:38:38Okay.
00:38:39My plan didn't work, Lucy.
00:38:44I guess Mommy isn't in love with Daddy after all.
00:38:48Martha May.
00:38:57Allie Builder as I live and breathe.
00:39:00Oh.
00:39:01Oh, how are you so skinny?
00:39:03I thought that city of yours had a restaurant on every block.
00:39:06Oh, well they do, but none of them make a burger as good as you do.
00:39:10Oh, well that's nice to know I'll be remembered fondly at least.
00:39:13What?
00:39:14Don't tell me you're shutting down.
00:39:15Yeah.
00:39:16I don't have a choice.
00:39:17Rent's gone up and I can't afford the place anymore.
00:39:19No.
00:39:20No, there must be something I can do.
00:39:23Mayor Diggle, shut it down.
00:39:26Mayor Diggle.
00:39:27Dirk, I can't believe you're shutting down Martha's Diner.
00:39:34It's a town institution.
00:39:35Is it?
00:39:36Or are you just upset about it because you and your boyfriend Craig used to go there?
00:39:40This isn't high school anymore, Dirk.
00:39:42And this isn't a game.
00:39:44What is it going to take for you to leave the diner alone?
00:39:47Well, you know I've always liked you, so how about you and me handle this privately?
00:39:55I'll pay you 12 months rent in advance.
00:40:01Listen, do you think I want your money?
00:40:03No.
00:40:04I had something more interesting in mind.
00:40:06You!
00:40:07You're disgusting!
00:40:08Listen, Craig was here to save you last time, but he's not here now.
00:40:13Looks like you're all alone, Hallie.
00:40:15Let go of my wife!
00:40:26Well, you two are under arrest for assaulting the mayor.
00:40:32You know the drill.
00:40:33This is just like how I used to arrest you when you was back in high school.
00:40:36Your wife, huh?
00:40:47Some habits are hard to break.
00:40:51God, this is so not funny.
00:40:53Ned is running for senator.
00:40:55What will this look like if anyone finds out?
00:40:57Who's gonna check a county jail in a nowhere town?
00:41:00I should've never come back here.
00:41:01I should've sent my assistant.
00:41:03I should've hired a lawyer!
00:41:04Then why didn't you?
00:41:07I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:09In your dreams.
00:41:10I have moved on to bigger and better things.
00:41:13Mm-hmm.
00:41:14Yeah, I heard about that.
00:41:15That neighborhood you shut down put 6,000 people out of work.
00:41:19And the complex I built brought back 10,000 jobs.
00:41:22Yeah, for Ivy Leaguers and corporate types.
00:41:25Oh my god.
00:41:26What about the blue collars?
00:41:27Hm?
00:41:28What about the people you came from?
00:41:29I've tried to forget where I came from!
00:41:31Okay, isn't that what you wanted when you told me I don't belong here?
00:41:35I shouldn't have said that.
00:41:36No, you were right.
00:41:38I'm not the same girl you married.
00:41:40Mm-hmm.
00:41:41I've built a life.
00:41:42A career.
00:41:44I should thank you.
00:41:46Because I couldn't have done it without you.
00:41:49Alright, lovebirds.
00:41:51Your bail's been posted.
00:41:53You're free to go.
00:41:54Bail by who?
00:41:58Hey, Howls.
00:42:02Ned!
00:42:05So, you must be Craig Brody.
00:42:15The man who couldn't even sign a simple divorce paper.
00:42:18And you must be Ned Vogel.
00:42:20The man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:23Yeah, well, my money got you out of jail, didn't it?
00:42:26I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:28Hm.
00:42:29Well, you can think of it as the government working for you.
00:42:32Well, you can shove your government up your silver spoon.
00:42:35Guys, please stop.
00:42:37No, you're right.
00:42:38I'm not here to argue with a man who's holding on to the past.
00:42:42We got the divorce papers expedited.
00:42:47So, you can sign them, Craig.
00:42:49This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:42:53Can I really divorce Hallie without her knowing about her own daughter?
00:43:01Sign the papers.
00:43:03Or we take you to court.
00:43:05But I gotta tell you, my lawyer's a shark.
00:43:08Say something, Hallie.
00:43:11Say something to stop this.
00:43:14Sign the papers, Craig.
00:43:17Let me go.
00:43:19It's the least you can do.
00:43:28Wonderful.
00:43:29We will get these filed at the town hall.
00:43:32And you will be divorced in an hour.
00:43:34This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:38It's time for you to finally move on with your life, Hallie.
00:43:45Well, are you coming?
00:43:48Yes, of course.
00:43:51Bye.
00:43:58That is who she ended up with.
00:44:01I always thought it'd be you.
00:44:04You know, sometimes things don't work out the way we want them to.
00:44:10Hallie, what were you thinking?
00:44:12Jail?
00:44:13Are you trying to ruin my campaign?
00:44:16No.
00:44:17No, this has nothing to do with you.
00:44:19You are gonna be my wife.
00:44:23Everything you do reflects on me.
00:44:27Now, are there any other skeletons I should know about?
00:44:34No.
00:44:40No.
00:44:41Nothing.
00:44:45This town is just how you described it.
00:44:50Low-class, run-down, depressing.
00:44:55It isn't that bad.
00:44:57Those are your words, Hallie.
00:44:59What's gotten into you?
00:45:00I don't know.
00:45:01Um...
00:45:02Just...
00:45:04Being back here...
00:45:06Should I remind you how lucky you are to have gotten out?
00:45:11Last signature, Miss Bilner.
00:45:12And you'll be free and clear to be the wife of Asseni.
00:45:15Okay.
00:45:16Let's go.
00:45:17Fair wages!
00:45:18Fair pay!
00:45:19We won the contract today!
00:45:20Let us through!
00:45:21No one gets in or out today.
00:45:22Town workers on strike.
00:45:23We need to get these filed.
00:45:24We have a flight to catch in 30 minutes.
00:45:25Sorry, we can't do it.
00:45:26There you are, Mommy.
00:45:27Mommy?
00:45:28Uh...
00:45:29Uh...
00:45:30Uh...
00:45:31Mommy?
00:45:32I knew you want to leave without me, Mommy.
00:45:33Mommy?
00:45:34I knew you want to leave without me, Mommy.
00:45:35Mommy?
00:45:36Mommy?
00:45:37You two have a kid together?
00:45:38No, no, no, no.
00:45:39Of course not.
00:45:40Natalie, come on.
00:45:41Miss Hallie has to go.
00:45:42No one gets in or out today.
00:45:43No one gets in or out today.
00:45:44Town workers on strike.
00:45:45We need to get these filed.
00:45:46We have a flight to catch in 30 minutes.
00:45:47Sorry, we can't do it.
00:45:48There you are, Mommy.
00:45:49Mommy?
00:45:50Uh...
00:45:51I knew you want to leave without me, Mommy.
00:45:52Mommy?
00:45:53You two have a kid together?
00:45:54No, no, no.
00:45:55Of course not.
00:45:56Natalie, come on.
00:45:57Miss Hallie has to go.
00:45:58No, no!
00:45:59I'm so sorry.
00:46:00I hate you.
00:46:01I hate both of you.
00:46:02Another reason why I'm glad I don't have kids.
00:46:03Look, we need to get these seats.
00:46:04I'm sorry.
00:46:05I'm sorry.
00:46:06I'm sorry.
00:46:07I'm sorry.
00:46:08I'm sorry.
00:46:09I'm sorry.
00:46:10I'm sorry.
00:46:11I'm sorry.
00:46:12I'm sorry.
00:46:13I'm sorry.
00:46:14I'm sorry.
00:46:15I'm sorry.
00:46:16I'm sorry.
00:46:17I'm sorry.
00:46:18What's it going to cost me to make it happen?
00:46:21Whoa!
00:46:22Is this a city senate official bribing a city employee?
00:46:27You see, I have my fair share of scandals, but this...
00:46:31This is bad.
00:46:33Hallie, I see you got a fancy new fiancee.
00:46:38What happened to your husband?
00:46:40He's still locked away in jail?
00:46:42I think he means soon-to-be ex-husband.
00:46:45Ah.
00:46:46Looks like your father got what he always wanted.
00:46:49You and Craig finally divorced.
00:46:51What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:46:55What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:46:59Wait.
00:47:00Craig never told you-
00:47:01Fair wait is fair pay!
00:47:02Fair pay!
00:47:03Hey!
00:47:04Keep it down, all right?
00:47:05Or I will write you up for a noise violation.
00:47:07How about you pay us what we're owed and not waste our tax dollars on fancy new fire trucks
00:47:13and cocktail parties?
00:47:15Mayor Sullivan never would have done anything.
00:47:17All right, listen.
00:47:18Mayor Sullivan is not in charge anymore.
00:47:20I am.
00:47:21All right?
00:47:22So please just keep it down!
00:47:24Fair wait is fair pay!
00:47:25All right!
00:47:26Keep it down!
00:47:27Fair wait is fair pay!
00:47:30I'll sign that paper for you.
00:47:32Yeah.
00:47:33All right, good.
00:47:36Where's the rest of it?
00:47:37What?
00:47:38Well, I can't sign this without a custody agreement.
00:47:40A custody agreement?
00:47:42Sure, this child is just as much Hallie's as she is Craig's.
00:47:48You lied to me.
00:47:49No, no.
00:47:50No, I didn't know.
00:47:51I swear.
00:47:53How is this even possible?
00:47:55Well, she's adopted.
00:47:56I mean, I did the paperwork myself.
00:47:58You listed as parent number one.
00:47:59Geez, I would have thought he would have told you about it by now.
00:48:02This is not a good thing.
00:48:04A husband is one thing, but a child?
00:48:06If this gets out, I am sunk.
00:48:08Right.
00:48:09A messy custody battle never sits low with voters.
00:48:11Who said anything about a custody agreement?
00:48:14Hallie doesn't even want the kid.
00:48:16Right, Hallie?
00:48:17I mean, you barely even know the child.
00:48:19She'll give up custody right now.
00:48:20Where do we sign?
00:48:21It's not that simple.
00:48:22In a case like this, when a child's involved,
00:48:24both parties have to attend a parenting class.
00:48:27The next one starts tomorrow.
00:48:29Tomorrow?
00:48:30I do not have time for this.
00:48:32I have to get back to New York before the press starts asking questions.
00:48:37Uh, go.
00:48:38Go, I'll get this sorted out.
00:48:40Fine.
00:48:41Take care of this child.
00:48:43End this marriage.
00:48:44Quickly and quietly.
00:48:53Hallie.
00:48:54No!
00:48:55You were just going to let me divorce you?
00:48:56Never knowing that Natalie's my daughter?
00:48:58The adoption went through after you left.
00:49:11You didn't think I deserved to know?
00:49:13You could have called, written anything!
00:49:16I tried.
00:49:17What?
00:49:21And you were there with another guy.
00:49:23You looked happy.
00:49:25You looked free.
00:49:26Seems you don't need me and Natalie anymore.
00:49:30And that's why you never told me that I had a daughter?
00:49:33You looked like you'd moved on.
00:49:34Moved on?
00:49:35It took me years to move on.
00:49:36And honestly, I don't know if I ever have.
00:49:50Forget it.
00:49:51It doesn't matter now anyway.
00:49:53Here.
00:49:54Parenting class.
00:49:55We need to take it in order to get divorced.
00:49:56Custody.
00:49:57Co-parenting.
00:49:58Legally, Natalie is just as much mine as she is yours.
00:49:59You haven't spent any time with her.
00:50:00You didn't raise her.
00:50:01I know.
00:50:02And whose fault is that?
00:50:03Class is at 8am.
00:50:04Don't be late.
00:50:05Don't be late.
00:50:06No.
00:50:07No.
00:50:08No.
00:50:09No.
00:50:10No.
00:50:11No.
00:50:12No.
00:50:13No.
00:50:14No.
00:50:15No.
00:50:16No.
00:50:17No.
00:50:18No.
00:50:19No.
00:50:20No.
00:50:21No.
00:50:22No.
00:50:23No.
00:50:24No.
00:50:25No.
00:50:26No.
00:50:27No.
00:50:28I knew Miss Hamey was my mommy.
00:50:29I knew Miss Hamey was my mommy.
00:50:33Dad…
00:50:41Maya, what is going on?
00:50:43Daddy…
00:50:51Daddy!
00:50:52He's okay.
00:50:53He's stabilized.
00:50:55Your old man's a fighter, Hallie.
00:50:58And clearly he's fighting to see you again.
00:51:02No fighting to see me?
00:51:04No, if anything, he'd be pissed to know I'm back.
00:51:08My dad hates me.
00:51:09That's not possible.
00:51:11Hallie, he talks about you all the time.
00:51:14He does?
00:51:15Yep.
00:51:16Every Monday and Thursday at dialysis.
00:51:18That's how I know about your fancy job and your fancy boyfriend.
00:51:22None of this makes any sense.
00:51:27Hallie, are you okay?
00:51:28Yeah, today's just been a lot.
00:51:34Maya, did you know that Natalie's my daughter?
00:51:42My shift ends in five minutes.
00:51:44Do you want to grab a drink?
00:51:47Craig has never revealed who Natalie's mother was,
00:51:50but he's never been with anyone since you,
00:51:53so we figured...
00:51:54Wait a second.
00:51:56He's never been with anyone since me?
00:51:59No, he left me for Trista.
00:52:01I saw him.
00:52:02Trista?
00:52:03She's been after him for years, sure,
00:52:05but he'd never touch her with a ten-foot pole.
00:52:07I don't understand.
00:52:09Just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:52:11Okay.
00:52:12Craig!
00:52:12No way.
00:52:15Excuse me, Maya.
00:52:26I need to get to the bottom of this.
00:52:37Good to see you, Hallie.
00:52:38I know the truth.
00:52:39You were never with Trista.
00:52:41So tell me the truth about everything.
00:52:45Right now.
00:52:51Pay me for it.
00:52:53If you win,
00:52:55I'll tell you.
00:53:04Looks like Big City Living has indulged your A-Metal.
00:53:06No, if anything,
00:53:08it made me sharper.
00:53:09You two are playing like your lives depend on it.
00:53:24Well,
00:53:25kind of do.
00:53:31Oops.
00:53:32Oops.
00:53:32If you do that again,
00:53:38I might just have to take you right here on the table.
00:53:41Too bad I'm engaged.
00:53:45What are you playing at, Hallie?
00:53:47I deserve the truth.
00:53:49Why?
00:53:50You came here to divorce me.
00:53:52What good would the truth do?
00:53:54I'll be the one to decide that.
00:53:56Now.
00:54:09Now.
00:54:11Pass up.
00:54:18You scratched.
00:54:20I win.
00:54:25Thank you, ladies.
00:54:27But I gotta go.
00:54:29I have an early start.
00:54:36Maybe I can find some clues in my father's room.
00:54:41Why didn't my father tell me he was sick?
00:54:44And why won't anyone just tell me the truth?
00:54:50Oh, my God.
00:54:57This will always belong to Hallie.
00:55:01And so will my heart.
00:55:02What is this doing here?
00:55:10What was this doing in my father's bedroom?
00:55:12Uh, Hallie...
00:55:13Tell me, why was this in my father's room?
00:55:18Don't tell me you're about to propose.
00:55:20Yes, Hallie.
00:55:21Krista, what are you doing here?
00:55:24Surprise!
00:55:25I'm teaching the course.
00:55:27It's time for the two of you to get divorced.
00:55:31I mean, this is what you both want, right?
00:55:35Of course.
00:55:37Hallie, you are Natalie's mother after all.
00:55:40Yes, but she doesn't know it yet, so please keep this between us.
00:55:44I will always do you a favor, Craig.
00:55:47You know that.
00:55:49Okay, first topic.
00:55:51How to explain to your child why you're not together anymore.
00:55:55Uh, simple.
00:55:56Her father is a lying, manipulative jerk who hid the fact that I had a daughter for five years.
00:56:02Not to mention whatever other secrets he's keeping.
00:56:05And what would you have done if I'd come up to you in the library that day?
00:56:08Hallie, be honest.
00:56:10You're starting a new life somewhere else.
00:56:12Because you made me believe there was nothing left for me here.
00:56:14So what are you going to do?
00:56:16You're going to take Natalie to New York?
00:56:18Maybe.
00:56:19She belongs here.
00:56:22Not in New York with central air and no pair.
00:56:26And I will be damned if I let Ned Vogel be my daughter's stepfather.
00:56:31Jealous, Craig.
00:56:33You know, of all the things Ned is, he's never lied to me.
00:56:35Never torn my world apart without so much as an explanation.
00:56:39You want an explanation?
00:56:41Yeah.
00:56:42I'll give you one.
00:56:43I did lie to you that day when I told you that I didn't love you anymore.
00:56:48Oh, my God.
00:56:49I'm done here.
00:56:53I knew he was still in love with you.
00:56:55I knew it.
00:56:56You just came here and you ruined everything like that.
00:56:58I knew you would.
00:56:58Ruined what exactly?
00:57:00I know the truth, Trista.
00:57:02You and Craig were never together.
00:57:05And that's about to change, sweetie.
00:57:08Once those divorce papers are finalized,
00:57:10I will have no choice but to choose me.
00:57:12Besides, Natalie needs a mother.
00:57:15You want to be Natalie's mom.
00:57:17Well, not particularly.
00:57:18But I can pretend.
00:57:21At least until I send her off to boarding school.
00:57:23After all these years,
00:57:25her father and I deserve some alone time.
00:57:27I mean, don't you think?
00:57:29Don't you dare.
00:57:30Go back to New York, Hallie.
00:57:36None of this concerns of you anymore.
00:57:38I think I'll go comfort your husband now.
00:57:43Oh, he looks upset.
00:57:45Let me out!
00:58:02Somebody!
00:58:03Somebody!
00:58:03I'm so sorry about that.
00:58:08I didn't realize Hallie would try to provoke you like that.
00:58:11Oh, Hallie was right.
00:58:13I should have told her about Natalie.
00:58:15It was unfair.
00:58:16I need to apologize.
00:58:18Do you?
00:58:18Because you and I both know what Hallie would have chosen all those years ago.
00:58:22And it wouldn't have been you and them.
00:58:23I don't, because I never gave her the chance.
00:58:26I did.
00:58:27What?
00:58:28All those years ago,
00:58:30I told her about Natalie.
00:58:31I don't understand.
00:58:39I care about you, Craig.
00:58:41And I would never, ever lie to you.
00:58:44I told her that you had a daughter together.
00:58:47And she never even tried to contact you.
00:58:50Did she?
00:58:54I'm so sorry I didn't tell you before,
00:58:56but I was just trying to protect you.
00:58:59She said that the last thing that she wanted was a daughter with you.
00:59:02She said that.
00:59:04Yes.
00:59:05In fact, she said that she didn't want any kids at all.
00:59:08Hallie was born to be a mother.
00:59:10That's all she's ever wanted.
00:59:12Is it?
00:59:14This is from the judge.
00:59:16She's planning on giving up full custody.
00:59:19She's going to New York.
00:59:20She has no interest in fighting for you or Natalie.
00:59:24But I do.
00:59:31What are you doing?
00:59:35I'm just trying to help you move on, Craig.
00:59:38Hallie will never choose you.
00:59:41But I will.
00:59:42It's not going to happen, Trista.
00:59:45It's not.
00:59:45Natalie.
00:59:46Natalie needs a mother.
00:59:47You know it and I know it.
00:59:49You need to move on, Craig.
00:59:51And come back to reality.
00:59:52Let me out!
00:59:55Hallie?
00:59:55What did you do to her?
00:59:59Nothing!
00:59:59Nothing!
01:00:00Nothing!
01:00:00This was a mistake.
01:00:02Having you help me out all those years ago is the biggest regret of my life.
01:00:06It's never going to happen!
01:00:08No matter what happens with me and Hallie!
01:00:12You want to play it like that?
01:00:19So be it.
01:00:20Hi!
01:00:26I'd like to speak to Senator Ned Vogel, please.
01:00:33Are you okay?
01:00:34Don't.
01:00:36Why do you care, Craig?
01:00:38Is everything you tell me a lie?
01:00:40What?
01:00:41I saw you kissing Trista!
01:00:43Don't try and deny it.
01:00:45You told me you loved me.
01:00:48I don't believe a word you say.
01:00:49Hallie, please, please, believe me.
01:00:51That was a mistake.
01:00:52The only mistake I ever made was coming back here.
01:00:56I don't know what I thought I'd find.
01:00:59But now I know.
01:01:02I dodged a bullet seven years ago.
01:01:08Hi!
01:01:09I'd like to inform Senator Ned Vogel that his perfect little fiancé is cheating on him with her husband.
01:01:16And don't worry.
01:01:18I have pictures to prove it.
01:01:23No, this isn't a prank phone call.
01:01:25I have proof.
01:01:30What?
01:01:30What?
01:01:31No, I'm not lying!
01:01:33Hello?
01:01:34Hello?
01:01:35Hello?
01:01:35I guess I'll just have to go to the New York Post with this one.
01:01:41You're buried, Hallie.
01:01:45Ned, hi.
01:01:46Hallie, great news.
01:01:48I just got off the phone with my lawyer.
01:01:50He said because you're giving up custody, parenting class is unnecessary.
01:01:53So, you can sign the papers today, and you'll be divorced by tomorrow.
01:01:58Tomorrow?
01:01:59Yeah.
01:02:00I already got a schedule for a gala Saturday, a fundraising brunch on Sunday.
01:02:05I can't wait to get you back on my arm in that pretty little black dress of yours.
01:02:09Me either.
01:02:12Well, you don't sound very happy.
01:02:13It's just...
01:02:14What about Natalie?
01:02:17My daughter?
01:02:17What are you going to do, Hallie?
01:02:19Bring the kid with you to New York?
01:02:21Co-parent with your ex?
01:02:22No.
01:02:22Look, if you want to have a baby, we can have a baby.
01:02:27Together.
01:02:28But I'm not going to raise someone else's kids, okay?
01:02:31Just sign over the custody and divorce it.
01:02:34Today.
01:02:36There's nothing there for you anymore, Hallie.
01:02:38Not anymore.
01:02:43You're right.
01:02:44There is nothing left for me here.
01:02:47How are you...
01:02:47I'm giving up custody.
01:02:49And going back to New York.
01:02:50You win, Craig.
01:02:53Win?
01:02:54You never wanted me to be a part of Natalie's life.
01:02:57Or yours.
01:03:00Well, congratulations.
01:03:01You got your wish.
01:03:02Hallie, please just hear me out.
01:03:04That's not the full story.
01:03:05There is nothing that you can say that will change anything.
01:03:08The damage is done.
01:03:11Let's just...
01:03:12Sign the papers and end this marriage.
01:03:17Party one agrees to give up full custody.
01:03:19Correct?
01:03:22That's right.
01:03:23Okay, so regarding the parental rights of Natalie Hallie Brody...
01:03:28What?
01:03:28Hallie?
01:03:29Her middle name is Hallie?
01:03:31She's your daughter, too.
01:03:34She's your daughter, too.
01:03:37Oh, my God.
01:03:40She belongs here.
01:03:41I'm not going to raise someone else's kid.
01:03:47Ma'am?
01:03:49Is he signing the dotted line?
01:03:55It's really over.
01:03:57Now for the divorce papers.
01:04:12Is that it?
01:04:22Yes.
01:04:24Congratulations.
01:04:25In 24 hours, you'll be ex-husband and wife.
01:04:29It was nice being married to you, Hallie Bovner.
01:04:34Wish I could say the same, Craig Brody.
01:04:35Lulu, um, I'll be back in the city by tonight.
01:04:46Rebook my meetings and get me a pedicure appointment.
01:04:49Thank God.
01:04:50I thought you were never coming back.
01:04:52But then I remembered.
01:04:54You're Hallie Bovner.
01:04:55Your work is your life.
01:04:58My life.
01:05:00Right.
01:05:00By the way, did you ever do that favor I asked?
01:05:08Oh, you mean that favor where I went to 50 different toy stores all over the city just for one special kid?
01:05:15Yes, I did.
01:05:17Which, might I ask, who is this special child?
01:05:22My daughter.
01:05:23A monster truck 300?
01:05:31This is the best present ever.
01:05:35Who's next?
01:05:36Damn, why don't you get Natalie's present over with?
01:05:40We all know it's going to be the worst.
01:05:43Here it is.
01:05:44Look how tiny it is.
01:05:46Catch.
01:05:51It's probably a gum wrapper.
01:05:53Or a half-eat an apple.
01:05:55She's so poor, she probably can't afford anything else.
01:06:00Guys, be nice.
01:06:01At least if it's not a tree branch, like last time.
01:06:06It was a walking stick and my dad made it.
01:06:09That's right, your dad.
01:06:10Because where's your mom again?
01:06:12That's right, nowhere.
01:06:17Oops.
01:06:18Hope it wasn't fragile.
01:06:23It's a friendship bracelet.
01:06:27Friendship?
01:06:27We're not friends.
01:06:30That's so sad.
01:06:31I can't believe you actually invited this freak to your party.
01:06:36My mom forced me to.
01:06:38If you had a mom, she'd help you pick out a real present.
01:06:41Not this dumb piece of string.
01:06:44I do have a mom.
01:06:46Then, where is she?
01:06:48She lives in New York and she's a powerful CEO.
01:06:50Why do you make up a story like that?
01:06:53If your mom was a powerful CEO, she would give you better gifts than this.
01:06:59Momless loser.
01:07:01Momless loser.
01:07:03Momless loser.
01:07:05Momless loser.
01:07:07Momless loser.
01:07:09Momless loser.
01:07:11Momless loser.
01:07:13Momless loser.
01:07:13Nobody can take your power away from you, except you.
01:07:18Don't ever forget that.
01:07:19You were wrong, Mommy.
01:07:20And you left me.
01:07:22You know what?
01:07:23Forget this.
01:07:33Hi.
01:07:34I have a delivery for Sam Baker.
01:07:36That's me.
01:07:37These must be for my uncle.
01:07:42He's super rich.
01:07:45Where do you think you're going?
01:07:46I never should have come.
01:07:48I'm getting out of here.
01:07:49Actually, you're going to stay here and watch what real presents look like.
01:07:55Yeah, and maybe next time you'll come up with something better than a stupid piece of string.
01:07:59A pickleball racket?
01:08:01Nintendo Switch?
01:08:03A build room bar kit?
01:08:05An e-scooter?
01:08:07A monster truck 400?
01:08:10These must cost a fortune.
01:08:13Uncle Rick is the best.
01:08:16Actually, these gifts are from Natalie's mom.
01:08:23My mommy.
01:08:24She does love me.
01:08:26Wait.
01:08:26This has to be a prank.
01:08:28Natalie is just lying about her mom.
01:08:30She isn't real.
01:08:32Well, someone very real signed for these purchase orders herself.
01:08:35All $15,000 worth of them.
01:08:37$15,000?
01:08:39How rich is she?
01:08:41Like I said, she's a powerful CEO in New York.
01:08:44And she's too busy to care what you small town losers think.
01:08:49No, wait.
01:08:49No.
01:08:50Where are you going?
01:08:51Uh, it's okay.
01:08:52You can sit next to me.
01:08:53No.
01:08:54Sit next to me.
01:08:55I want to be friends with you if you pay me.
01:08:59Enjoy the presents, loser.
01:09:03And your cake is dry, by the way.
01:09:11Daddy.
01:09:11I don't know if you can hear me, but I wanted you to know I'm going back to New York.
01:09:20Okay?
01:09:21You were right about Craig.
01:09:24He's a liar.
01:09:26And a cheat.
01:09:27And the man I'm about to marry?
01:09:31He's rich.
01:09:33Handsome.
01:09:35Successful.
01:09:36Exactly.
01:09:39The kind of man you would have wanted for me.
01:09:42I'll miss you.
01:09:43Okay?
01:09:46You're running towards something.
01:09:48Back to your life.
01:09:50Go.
01:09:52Your father's in good hands.
01:09:53I promise.
01:09:54Would you look after Natalie?
01:09:56For me.
01:09:57Of course.
01:09:57Of course.
01:09:57Of course.
01:09:57Of course.
01:09:57Of course.
01:09:57Of course.
01:09:59Of course.
01:09:59Of course.
01:09:59Of course.
01:09:59Of course.
01:10:01Of course.
01:10:01Of course.
01:10:03Of course.
01:10:04Of course.
01:10:05Of course.
01:10:05Of course.
01:10:06The flight departs in one minute.
01:10:33Come on, Natalie.
01:10:34I'll take you home.
01:10:35I'll take you home.
01:10:36I'll take you home.
01:10:37I'll take you home.
01:10:38I'll take you home.
01:10:39I'll take you home.
01:10:40I'll take you home.
01:10:41Oh, my God.
01:10:42Oh, my God.
01:10:43Where'd you find her?
01:10:44She was at the airport.
01:10:45Airport?
01:10:46I wanted to go up to New York City with Mommy.
01:10:50She knows.
01:10:51I cried.
01:10:52Natalie, can you give us a minute?
01:10:53Okay, Daddy.
01:10:54Thank you for bringing her back.
01:10:55Of course.
01:10:56Okay.
01:10:57Natalie, can you give us a minute?
01:10:58Okay, Daddy.
01:10:59Thank you for bringing her back.
01:11:01Of course.
01:11:02But, um, before I go, I have a favor to ask.
01:11:07Anything.
01:11:08Find Natalie a mother.
01:11:09Just make sure it's not Trista.
01:11:10Okay?
01:11:11Okay.
01:11:12Okay.
01:11:13All right.
01:11:14All right.
01:11:15Okay.
01:11:16All right.
01:11:20Okay.
01:11:21All right.
01:11:42After all these years, he never gave up on us.
01:11:52After all these years, he never gave up on us.
01:12:00You probably could have come up with something better.
01:12:03No, it's perfect.
01:12:08How long have you been working on this?
01:12:11A few years now.
01:12:13Ever since I left?
01:12:17Maybe.
01:12:20But why?
01:12:23I couldn't let our dream die just because our marriage did.
01:12:27That crazy dream?
01:12:30Doesn't look so crazy anymore, does it?
01:12:33No, it doesn't.
01:12:35Ellie, not a day goes by where I don't think about you.
01:12:39And I know, I know you won't believe a word I say, but I thought maybe you'd believe something you could see.
01:12:48Is that us?
01:12:58Yeah, it is.
01:12:59I love you.
01:13:07And I never stopped.
01:13:10I've missed this for so long.
01:13:24I've missed this for so long.
01:13:28I've wanted this for so long.
01:13:31No.
01:13:32No, we have to stop.
01:13:33But the papers are signed, Craig.
01:13:37I'm engaged to someone else.
01:13:40And it's too late to turn the clock back now.
01:13:46Send me a picture when the town's rebuilt, okay?
01:13:48That's the thing.
01:13:50It won't be.
01:13:53What?
01:13:54What do you mean?
01:13:56I got this in the mail today.
01:13:58My plans were approved, but Dirk Diggle bought up all the local contractors.
01:14:03And I can't afford anyone else, so I'm going to have to rescind my offer.
01:14:08No, you can't do that.
01:14:09I have to.
01:14:11I don't have a choice.
01:14:12What if I said, I could help.
01:14:19I could help.
01:14:22Go back to New York, Ellie.
01:14:25Don't worry about someone's tiny little dream in a nowhere town.
01:14:30This was our dream, Craig.
01:14:36Besides, you helped me out with their didwals.
01:14:38She said she's not interested, bro.
01:14:44Now let me help you.
01:14:56Lulu.
01:14:57Um, change of plans.
01:15:00Send all of our best contractors to Franklin, Tennessee.
01:15:03Also, cancel my pedicure appointment.
01:15:04Have you come to withdraw your application, Craig?
01:15:13I knew you couldn't afford it.
01:15:15Well, actually, I just came to give you the deposit.
01:15:19We break ground tomorrow.
01:15:22We.
01:15:23We said we would fix this town up.
01:15:25Mm-hmm.
01:15:26And that is exactly what we're going to do.
01:15:29I never thought I'd see the day where our dream became a reality.
01:15:36No, it was always your dream.
01:15:38I was just happy to help.
01:15:43Lulu!
01:15:43Oh, my God.
01:15:46Wow, boss.
01:15:47No wonder you never came back.
01:15:49You never told me your husband was a stone-cold hoddy.
01:15:52Oh.
01:15:53Ex-husband.
01:15:56Right.
01:15:56Right.
01:15:56Right.
01:15:56Right.
01:15:56Right.
01:15:59Allie.
01:16:01Ned.
01:16:02Hi.
01:16:04Um, what are you doing here?
01:16:05I told you I would be back next week.
01:16:07You want to tell me what the meaning of this is?
01:16:14You told me there was nothing going on between you two.
01:16:16Are you trying to embarrass me on a national stage?
01:16:20No, um, no, Ned.
01:16:21I am so sorry.
01:16:23I, uh, is your campaign okay?
01:16:25It's fine for now.
01:16:27Well, luckily this is just a mock-up.
01:16:30Post gave it to us before going to press.
01:16:32Get in.
01:16:34I am taking you home.
01:16:36Ned, I told you this project is important.
01:16:40Hallie, you build multi-billion dollar skyscrapers.
01:16:43Not whatever this is.
01:16:46This matters.
01:16:47A sad little shopping mall in a sad little town?
01:16:52Come on, Hallie.
01:16:53You're better than this.
01:16:55What's that supposed to mean?
01:16:58Being back here, it has you confused.
01:17:00You don't know what you want.
01:17:02You don't know who you really are anymore.
01:17:04But this is your past.
01:17:08I am your future.
01:17:10Remember?
01:17:11You still want to marry me?
01:17:15Even after that?
01:17:16Yes.
01:17:17In fact, I want to move the wedding up.
01:17:19Let's get married right now.
01:17:24Let's get married right now.
01:17:26Right now?
01:17:28Um.
01:17:29Excuse me.
01:17:30Hey.
01:17:35Seeing these photos, it made me realize how much you mean to me.
01:17:39I can't lose you, Hallie.
01:17:42I don't want to lose you.
01:17:44Please.
01:17:45Marry me.
01:17:49You're going to marry her?
01:17:51She was cheating on you.
01:17:55Who are you?
01:17:57I'm the woman that took these photos.
01:17:59So, you admit to sabotaging a political campaign.
01:18:03What?
01:18:04No.
01:18:05Ma'am, you're lucky the senator doesn't press charges.
01:18:08Come with me.
01:18:09What?
01:18:09No.
01:18:10No.
01:18:10No.
01:18:11You will not win this one, Hallie.
01:18:13No.
01:18:14Don't touch me.
01:18:16Ned, this all just feels a little fast.
01:18:21Yeah, but is it, Hallie?
01:18:22What are we waiting for?
01:18:26What are we waiting for?
01:18:29I don't know.
01:18:31Quit fucking around and marry me already.
01:18:35What's the rush, Ned?
01:18:36I...
01:18:37The Post agreed to kill the cheating story.
01:18:39If we give them something better.
01:18:42Something like...
01:18:43A wedding, for example.
01:18:46You want to marry me?
01:18:48For a story?
01:18:50Come on, Hallie.
01:18:51We're going to get married anyway.
01:18:53What difference does it make?
01:18:54Was this whole thing just a publicity stunt?
01:18:59Our engagement?
01:19:01Our relationship?
01:19:02No.
01:19:03Of course not.
01:19:04I love you.
01:19:06Then what's my favorite color, Ned?
01:19:08Oh, come on, Hallie.
01:19:10My favorite flower?
01:19:14My favorite flower?
01:19:16I don't know.
01:19:17Roses?
01:19:17Does it even matter?
01:19:19Yes, it does.
01:19:22I'm sorry, Ned, but I can't marry you.
01:19:28Yes, you can.
01:19:29Because if you don't, I can make your life very difficult.
01:19:34Starting with those big city contracts you just won.
01:19:37I spent years of blood, sweat, and tears to get those contracts.
01:19:41But once I'm elected, I can make them all go poof.
01:19:45I have friends in very high places, Hallie.
01:19:48No, you wouldn't dare.
01:19:50I worked my entire career for those.
01:19:52Well, then the answer is simple.
01:19:55Marry me.
01:19:57We'll lose everything.
01:19:59Come on, Hallie.
01:20:00This is not a difficult choice.
01:20:02You're hurting me.
01:20:03If you think this is pain, you haven't felt anything yet.
01:20:06Neither of you.
01:20:08Yes.
01:20:19My suit.
01:20:21My jaw.
01:20:23You broke my face.
01:20:25Good.
01:20:26Looks better that way, in my opinion.
01:20:28I have you arrested for assault a government official.
01:20:31There isn't a cop who will side with you over me.
01:20:34Not in this town.
01:20:36And by the way, her favorite color is blue.
01:20:40And her favorite flower, the marigold, as it blooms from spring to fall.
01:20:46There you go.
01:20:48I hope that suit wasn't too expensive.
01:20:50This suit is worth more than you make in a year.
01:20:53Isn't that something?
01:20:55It's time for you to leave, Senator.
01:20:57Come on, Hallie.
01:20:58Hallie, you're not going to give up everything just for some pathetic small-town nobody.
01:21:04Yeah, he may be from a small town, but he is not a nobody.
01:21:10In fact, if I had to choose a son-in-law, I'd pick him over you any day of the week.
01:21:15Daddy!
01:21:19Hallie, I am so sorry for everything.
01:21:22Starting with meddling in your marriage.
01:21:25Meddling?
01:21:26I'm the one that made Craig divorce.
01:21:29I told him if he really loved you, he'd let you go.
01:21:33He did.
01:21:34I thought you deserved more than a small town, more than a local boy like him.
01:21:43She does, sir.
01:21:45Come on, Hallie.
01:21:47He divorced you.
01:21:48He gave up a daughter for you.
01:21:50So what if I want to marry you for a story?
01:21:53People get married for worse reasons.
01:21:55And they get divorced for better ones.
01:21:59I don't care what you think, old man.
01:22:01Hallie, you're coming with me.
01:22:02You stay away from my daughter.
01:22:04Hallie, I am not leaving.
01:22:07You owe it to me to go through this wedding.
01:22:09I've had about enough of people telling me who I should and shouldn't marry.
01:22:16Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:18It's over between us.
01:22:23Get out of here, Ned.
01:22:25It's over between us.
01:22:28Fine.
01:22:29But I hope you know what you're giving up, Hallie.
01:22:34I most certainly do.
01:22:41It was too big anyway.
01:22:44Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:22:47What about me?
01:22:48I'll marry you.
01:22:49You know, I'm sure the Post would love to see me at a wedding gown.
01:22:54And I would look way better than Hallie ever would.
01:22:57Not in a million years.
01:22:59Oh my gosh, ew!
01:23:02Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew.
01:23:05Oh my gosh, I can't see me like this.
01:23:07No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:23:11I owe you both an apology for trying to play God.
01:23:15Daddy.
01:23:16Hear me out.
01:23:18When I was in the hospital and hooked up to all those machines,
01:23:21I just kept having the same wonderful dream.
01:23:25This dream where you were still together.
01:23:29This dream where you were both living the life you deserve.
01:23:32I took that future and that life away from you.
01:23:35Allie, Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:43Allie, Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:23:46How?
01:23:48This should be enough.
01:23:50I want her on that plane, alone, whatever it takes.
01:23:56I tried to pay him off.
01:24:00And this is what he did with the money.
01:24:02I've never seen someone work so hard for love.
01:24:07Is this true, Craig?
01:24:10Mm-hmm.
01:24:12Why didn't you just tell me?
01:24:14Because I didn't want you to hate your father or blame him
01:24:17when he just thought he was doing what was right.
01:24:21You were protecting me.
01:24:23That's right.
01:24:25You two are the only family you have left.
01:24:27Unless...
01:24:32Will you let me be a part of your family again?
01:24:37Now, I know this ring isn't exactly as big as your old one,
01:24:42but you can make me the happiest man in the world
01:24:47if you marry me again.
01:24:49Yeah?
01:24:50Yes.
01:24:51Yes, Craig, I'll marry you.
01:24:53Oh, perfect.
01:24:54It always was.
01:25:03Mommy, Daddy, I knew you'd come back together.
01:25:06Oh, she did.
01:25:07Come on.
01:25:07Come on.
01:25:08Up we go.
01:25:10Dale, that wasn't such a crazy dream.
01:25:12I'd like you to meet your granddaughter, Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:25:16My dream came true.
01:25:18Hi, Grandpa.
01:25:19Allie, this is crazy, but if we run,
01:25:24we can make it to the town clerk before it closes.
01:25:26I do not want to be divorced from you one second longer.
01:25:30Me either.
01:25:30Yeah?
01:25:31Yeah?
01:25:31Okay, what do we think?
01:25:33Who's up for our wedding?
01:25:35Yeah?
01:25:37Yeah?
01:25:38Yeah?
01:25:38Yeah?
01:25:38Hi.
01:25:44Um, we would like to get remarried.
01:25:47I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:50That's ridiculous.
01:25:52Uh, what?
01:25:53Why?
01:25:54I can't accept your remarriage.
01:25:56That's ridiculous.
01:25:58Uh, what?
01:25:59Why?
01:26:00Well, because you were never really divorced in the first place.
01:26:03Look right here.
01:26:03You signed your name, Hallie Bildner.
01:26:07But your name is, and always has been, Hallie Brody.
01:26:11Will you look at that?
01:26:14Wait, so, um, that means the custody papers?
01:26:18Well, that's, uh, that's void.
01:26:23So, you're still Natalie's parents.
01:26:27Mommy!
01:26:32Daddy.
01:26:33I forgive you.
01:26:52I've got seven years to make up for.
01:27:03I just want to thank you all for your faith in me.
01:27:11And as your new mayor, I promise to work tirelessly to bring this town back to what it once was.
01:27:18Starting with the community center that Craig and Hallie so generously built.
01:27:26We love you, man, Martha.
01:27:28Love you.
01:27:28What do you think, Micheal?
01:27:40Looks like they found a story to replace him with after all.
01:27:43Is there a really baby right there?
01:27:53Yes.
01:27:54We're going to be one big happy family.
