00:00:00I'm bored.
00:00:12According to Mr. Trudeau's will, your eldest daughter, Miss Shelby Trudeau, must be married
00:00:18by five o'clock today, or she loses her inheritance.
00:00:22That unladied-like girl is not my daughter.
00:00:25Bad enough I'm her stepmother.
00:00:27Hi, and hello.
00:00:28We want Shelby to know-show, that's the way we get everything.
00:00:44I'm Sgt.
00:00:45Shelby Trudeau.
00:00:46I'm here to claim my inheritance.
00:00:49Well look who it is, the prodigal sister, and dressed in your old uniform.
00:00:53Pathetic.
00:00:54Still trying to play hero.
00:00:56I'm in the Army Reserve now, C.C. I was doing weekend drills with my unit.
00:01:01The will, please.
00:01:02Ooh, the Army Reserve.
00:01:03Should have just died in the field like a good little soldier.
00:01:09No one would have missed you.
00:01:10Shut your trap before I shut it for you.
00:01:14You don't have to respect me, but don't you dare speak about soldiers dying in vain on
00:01:18the battlefield.
00:01:19God, look around, C.C., with your curled hair and your frilly dress.
00:01:24Do you think any of that would be possible without others sacrificing?
00:01:28You have freedom and peace because someone else is carrying the burden.
00:01:34Of course.
00:01:39The will, Sgt.
00:01:40Trudeau.
00:01:41And I want to thank you for your service.
00:01:48Your father's will stipulates that the inheritance is yours, only if signed by both you and your
00:01:54spouse.
00:01:55Woo!
00:01:56That means you've got 15 minutes to find a husband, Shelby.
00:02:01Tick tock.
00:02:14Don't say I'm a bad stepmother.
00:02:16Give up your inheritance and I'll give you one percent.
00:02:19Better than nothing.
00:02:22You stole my father from me most of my life.
00:02:24You will not take what he left me.
00:02:26And what this money could do to help the gym and all the women that are part of it.
00:02:33Really, Shelby?
00:02:34Who's going to marry you anyhow?
00:02:36The last guy you even slept with was a one-night stand three years ago at Mardi Gras.
00:02:52Don't.
00:02:55Keep the mystery.
00:02:59You've already lost, Shelby.
00:03:01Take the one percent I'm offering and be grateful for it.
00:03:05Right.
00:03:06You're not even going to find a bum on the street to marry you in time.
00:03:11Watch me.
00:03:16Watch me.
00:03:23Don't worry.
00:03:38He looks single.
00:03:39Oh my God, this is totally food bar.
00:03:43Suck it up, soldier.
00:03:45You can't let your evil stepmother and stepsister win.
00:03:48Hey, mister.
00:03:53Will you marry me?
00:04:03I know this sounds crazy and there's no time to explain, but if you help me, I promise
00:04:07a generous reward once I get my inheritance.
00:04:09Well, this day just got a whole lot more interesting.
00:04:12So you won't have to live on the streets anymore.
00:04:14Do I look like a homeless person there?
00:04:16Priceless.
00:04:17Shelby Trudeau, are you insane?
00:04:22You can't marry this helpful.
00:04:27Shelby Trudeau, the late Judge Trudeau's eldest daughter.
00:04:31That's right.
00:04:32The judge said she was a soldier.
00:04:34He didn't mention she was beautiful, too.
00:04:37Here's a few bucks.
00:04:38Take it and get lost.
00:04:40Don't meddle in our business.
00:04:42Don't speak to him like that.
00:04:43He's a person with feelings.
00:04:46The Cinderella Tale, complete with an evil stepmother and obnoxious stepsister.
00:04:51It's clear who deserves my help, and the timing couldn't be better for me.
00:04:56All right, let's get married.
00:05:13Names for the marriage certificate?
00:05:15Shelby Trudeau.
00:05:18And your name is?
00:05:20Griff Neroi.
00:05:43Congratulations, you love birds?
00:05:55This isn't over.
00:05:56Tell her.
00:06:03Sergeant Trudeau, Mrs. Roy.
00:06:06You have to stay married for at least one full year, or everything goes to your stepmother
00:06:12and stepsister.
00:06:14You hear that, Shelby?
00:06:16You won't last a week with that hobo.
00:06:22Come on.
00:06:28I guess we'll need to keep in touch, but you probably don't have a permanent address.
00:06:34Once the estate gets settled and I have the money, we can get you an apartment and set
00:06:39you up with a job.
00:06:40When most people get what they wanted, they usually just walk away.
00:06:44Well, I'm not most people.
00:06:47I see that.
00:06:55I gotta return this.
00:06:58Goodbye for now.
00:07:01Goodbye, wife.
00:07:15Where the hell have you been?
00:07:31Gotcha.
00:07:33Seriously, this is over the top, even for you.
00:07:37This DNA, get it to Detective McSwain right away.
00:07:41Look, as your campaign manager, I need you to be more focused on your image, okay?
00:07:47You'll never catch LaRoche dumpster diving.
00:07:53Marrying Isabel was the best decision of my life.
00:07:57You know, when you elected me to Congress three years ago, you got a package deal.
00:08:03Griffin Roy, just another billionaire bachelor, playboy lawyer, best.
00:08:09This, my friend, is where you're vulnerable.
00:08:12In a snap, I can line up a dozen beautiful, successful women.
00:08:16You want me for what I am, not who I am.
00:08:19Look, you can't keep pining over some girl you met three years ago.
00:08:23It's not just some girl.
00:08:24We had a connection.
00:08:26Never had that before.
00:08:33Look, I gotta run.
00:08:35But Griffin, you need to find a woman who can stand by your side.
00:08:39Someone real.
00:08:40Not this made-up mystery girl you've built up in your head.
00:08:56Up!
00:08:58Up!
00:09:00Remember that true strength is not physical.
00:09:03It comes from the belief that you are worth defending.
00:09:06Alright guys, that's class.
00:09:09Nice work.
00:09:15So what's the latest on the STD super spreader?
00:09:18I tried to call him, but Mr. Chlamydia blocked my number.
00:09:23Who knows how many other women he's done this to.
00:09:26So I was thinking, maybe it's time to go by his place and confront him in person.
00:09:33What's holding you back?
00:09:34Andre's no regular guy, Shelby.
00:09:36He's got a bro pack.
00:09:38These men are like wolves with mutton.
00:09:40Let's go.
00:09:41We'll face this douchebag together.
00:09:53What's your name?
00:09:54I'm Stephanie.
00:09:56How about a drink, huh?
00:09:57Oh, that's okay.
00:09:58Come on.
00:09:59One little drink won't do no harm.
00:10:01Okay, one drink.
00:10:02Really, Pierce?
00:10:03This clown is the one who controls the town's power brokers.
00:10:06You want to beat LaRoche, you gotta mingle with the good, the bad, and the Andres.
00:10:13What's your name?
00:10:14I'm Stephanie.
00:10:15How about a drink, huh?
00:10:16Oh, that's okay.
00:10:17Come on.
00:10:18One little drink won't do no harm.
00:10:19Okay, one drink.
00:10:20Really, Pierce?
00:10:21Come on.
00:10:27I can't believe I slept with that.
00:10:29What was I thinking?
00:10:32I guess I can't hold my liquor.
00:10:34I mean, the night was just one big black hole.
00:10:38It wasn't the alcohol that caused you to black out.
00:10:45Thanks.
00:10:46That creep!
00:10:49You dickless loser!
00:10:51Oh!
00:10:58Drugging girls to get laid.
00:11:00What the fuck?
00:11:01Get out of my house, skank.
00:11:03I'm the skank?
00:11:05That's funny.
00:11:06You're the one spreading chlamydia.
00:11:08Shut the fuck up and get out of my house.
00:11:11Unless you're back from horror, I know how much of a whore you really are.
00:11:15You like spreading your legs, don't you?
00:11:17I just told you that you have chlamydia and you...
00:11:21Oh, my God.
00:11:23You already know you have it.
00:11:25And you don't care.
00:11:27Ladies!
00:11:29Andre Ivanov has been knowingly spreading chlamydia.
00:11:39What is she doing here?
00:11:41Both of you, get out of here.
00:11:47Oh, shit.
00:11:48She can't know who I am yet.
00:11:51Do you know who I am?
00:11:53I don't care.
00:11:59Where did she come from?
00:12:01That's my wife.
00:12:03Isn't she amazing?
00:12:04And she's going to cost you, Andre, once he finds out you're married to her.
00:12:06I don't care.
00:12:07You think you can crash my party and put that ninja shit on me?
00:12:12You are one dead bitch.
00:12:14You are one dead bitch.
00:12:26Oh, nice.
00:12:28Did you see that combo?
00:12:29Dude, she can fight.
00:12:30Look at her form, man.
00:12:36She can really fight, man.
00:12:38You are hopeless.
00:12:40Hey, swap me jackets.
00:12:42I'll give you my Rolex.
00:12:44Come on.
00:13:07Fuck you, Roy.
00:13:08I'll do everything I can to end you.
00:13:11We should get out of here.
00:13:12Yeah.
00:13:13Ah!
00:13:16Get him!
00:13:19You lied to me.
00:13:20You're not some homeless guy.
00:13:22Okay, when did I say I was homeless?
00:13:24You were next to a dumpster.
00:13:25That's not much of a leap.
00:13:27What were you doing at this party?
00:13:29Working the room.
00:13:30Oh.
00:13:31I thought you were one of those asshole rich guys.
00:13:35I'm sorry.
00:13:36I hope I didn't cost you your job.
00:13:38I know how you can make it up to me.
00:13:40Have dinner with me.
00:13:43My place is nearby.
00:13:45I'll whip something up as a thank you for tonight.
00:13:47Wow.
00:13:48A wife who cooks and kicks ass.
00:13:51I'm one lucky man.
00:13:53Don't push it.
00:14:02Hey, dinner's ready.
00:14:08This is nice.
00:14:10I haven't had a home cooked meal in a long time.
00:14:13It's one of the things I missed the most when I was deployed.
00:14:15How long were you in the military?
00:14:17Seven years.
00:14:18I joined right after high school.
00:14:20My mom had just died and I was feeling rudderless.
00:14:23You weren't close with your father?
00:14:26I was.
00:14:27He was my hero.
00:14:29Until he wasn't.
00:14:32He cheated on my mom with Margo.
00:14:34He was the judge and she was the court stenographer.
00:14:38It was quite the scandal at the time.
00:14:39It must have been really hard for you.
00:14:42It was harder on my mom.
00:14:44She didn't want anything to do with him, so I cut him off too.
00:14:47He even started using my mom's maiden name.
00:14:49But then three years ago, he reached out, told me he was sick.
00:14:52So I came to New Orleans for a visit.
00:14:54Here I am.
00:14:56Here you are.
00:14:58Enough about me.
00:15:00What's your story, Griffin Roy?
00:15:03Oh.
00:15:05Shelby Trudeau, come on out now.
00:15:07We know you're in there, Shelby.
00:15:09But the light is on.
00:15:11We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:15:13We are not leaving until you open this door.
00:15:16Hey.
00:15:18I'll handle this.
00:15:23Oh.
00:15:25I thought I heard a couple of stray cats out here yelling, but it's just you two.
00:15:28And you are?
00:15:30That's the homeless guy that Shelby married.
00:15:32What are you doing here?
00:15:34Why wouldn't Griffin be here?
00:15:36He's my husband, after all.
00:15:37Mama, what are we going to do?
00:15:39We need to challenge the will.
00:15:41But how can we do that if they're still together?
00:15:43Shut up, Cece.
00:15:45Oh.
00:15:47I see you're still trying to rob my wife of her inheritance.
00:15:49How pathetic and pointless.
00:15:51Look how in love we are.
00:15:53I'll be back.
00:15:55Enjoy the little victory while it lasts.
00:15:57Right.
00:15:59We're going to shred that will and your shame of marriage in no time.
00:16:07Margot and Cece are going to be a problem.
00:16:09There's no way they'll let us be.
00:16:11What if we moved in together?
00:16:13You want to live here?
00:16:15No.
00:16:17Somewhere with better security.
00:16:19Like my place.
00:16:21Sure.
00:16:23I'm dying to see where you live.
00:16:31So let me get this straight.
00:16:33You told her you were going to leave?
00:16:34So let me get this straight.
00:16:36You told her you're house-sitting?
00:16:38That's right.
00:16:40Said I was going to watch the house while the owner was in Europe for the year.
00:16:42You do know how crazy that sounds.
00:16:44Why can't you just tell her it's your place?
00:16:51I saw you from across the room and I had to talk to you.
00:16:53That's very flattering.
00:16:55But you don't know anything about me.
00:16:57I know you take my breath away.
00:16:59And I know that I would wonder for the rest of my life if I didn't take this chance.
00:17:02Even if it was only for one night.
00:17:04Maybe it's better this way.
00:17:07No names, no past.
00:17:10We can just be ourselves.
00:17:12I'd like that very much.
00:17:15The girl from Mardi Gras didn't know I was a Roy.
00:17:18She liked me for me.
00:17:20And I want that again, Pierce.
00:17:22Even for a little while.
00:17:23Stash all this stuff in the garage, please.
00:17:26Griffin, you're a public figure.
00:17:28A lot of people know who you are.
00:17:30How long do you think you can keep this charade up?
00:17:32I don't know.
00:17:34But I have a chance to be with someone without all the crap that goes along with being a Roy.
00:17:38Well, just remember, we're about to launch a mobile game.
00:17:42And you're going to be the first person to see it.
00:17:44And you're going to be the first person to see it.
00:17:46And you're going to be the first person to see it.
00:17:48And you're going to be the first person to see it.
00:17:50And you're going to be the first person to see it.
00:17:52We're about to launch a multi-platform campaign.
00:17:56In two weeks, TV, radio, social, billboards, your face is about to be everywhere.
00:18:02Then I better make the most of the next 14 days.
00:18:22This place is insane.
00:18:24The owner must really trust you.
00:18:26Yep.
00:18:28We're pretty tight.
00:18:30Here, let me show you to your room.
00:18:38I can't keep living in the past.
00:18:41Maybe it's time to see what the future holds.
00:18:52Goodbye, mystery lover.
00:19:00I take it things are going well with Xena Warrior Princess.
00:19:03Oh, she's so exciting and competitive.
00:19:05Keeps me on my toes.
00:19:07And so damn beautiful.
00:19:09Face sweaty, no makeup, so damn real.
00:19:12When do I get to meet her?
00:19:14Her military background and work with actress women will be a real asset for both female and male voters.
00:19:19Dial it back, Pierce.
00:19:20We're in the early stages.
00:19:22Alright, well, don't take too long.
00:19:24You married her for the campaign.
00:19:26And it's not like she can dump you once she finds out.
00:19:29She needs you for her inheritance.
00:19:39Good.
00:19:46Hey.
00:19:47I'm taking care of you tonight.
00:19:48Oh, I like the sound of that.
00:19:50Get your mind out of the gutter, woman.
00:19:52I'm talking food here.
00:19:54Alright, in that case, surprise me.
00:19:56Trust me, I'm full of surprises.
00:19:59I bet you are.
00:20:11Gotcha, sis.
00:20:13So this is where you've been hiding out.
00:20:14This is where you've been hiding out.
00:20:26Did you want some of my wine?
00:20:44I turned off your alarm.
00:20:46You obviously needed to sleep.
00:20:48We can run tonight.
00:20:50P.S.
00:20:51You snore.
00:20:53But it's super cute.
00:20:55I do not snore, Griffin Roy.
00:20:56What are you doing in a place like this?
00:20:58I live here.
00:21:00When did you move in?
00:21:02I moved in last night.
00:21:04I'm sorry.
00:21:06I'm sorry.
00:21:08I'm sorry.
00:21:10I'm sorry.
00:21:12I'm sorry.
00:21:14I'm sorry.
00:21:16I'm sorry.
00:21:18I'm sorry.
00:21:20I'm sorry.
00:21:22I'm sorry.
00:21:24I'm sorry.
00:21:25Last week, we're house sitting.
00:21:28Yeah, I've heard that one before.
00:21:30Listen, this is an exclusive neighborhood.
00:21:32Thieves are always trying to break in.
00:21:34Who are you calling a thief?
00:21:36Please step out.
00:21:38Now!
00:21:40What the hell are you doing?
00:21:42Just routine inspection.
00:21:46Let's see what else you're hiding here.
00:21:47Get your filthy hands off my wife!
00:21:49What?
00:21:53Oh.
00:21:55Cool.
00:21:57I thought I was saving you, but it looks like you got it.
00:22:00Oh, look out!
00:22:04Damn, lady.
00:22:06You make it look easy.
00:22:08I'm sorry.
00:22:10I'm sorry.
00:22:12I'm sorry.
00:22:14I'm sorry.
00:22:15You make it look easy.
00:22:17Are you hurt?
00:22:19Just my pride.
00:22:22Looks like you get it flat.
00:22:24Let's get out of here.
00:22:25We can take my car.
00:22:27This is yours?
00:22:29Borrowed it from a friend.
00:22:31Right.
00:22:34I know all the guards who work here, and you sure as hell aren't them.
00:22:39Who the hell are you, man?
00:22:41Some kind of big shot or something?
00:22:43Oh, I'm your worst nightmare.
00:22:45All right.
00:22:47You're under arrest.
00:22:49What the hell is going on?
00:22:58Well, that didn't go as planned.
00:23:01Mama, this is all your fault.
00:23:03You pushed me to hire those thugs to humiliate Shelby, and now my money's wasted and she got off scot-free.
00:23:09Eyes on the prize, Cece.
00:23:10Once we inherit the entire Trudeau estate, this will be pocket change.
00:23:14Yeah.
00:23:16And who would have thought that bum would have got the police involved in all this mess?
00:23:19I don't believe he's a bum.
00:23:21I mean, how can a homeless man be so clever?
00:23:23No matter whether he's a tramp or not, he married Shelby for her money.
00:23:28Offer him a better deal, and he'll leave her.
00:23:31We annul the marriage and claim the entire estate.
00:23:35Yeah.
00:23:37Oh, isn't Victoria Willcox here?
00:23:39Oh, isn't Victoria Wilcox the porter party billionaire looking for a new gigolo?
00:23:44That old cougar?
00:23:46Oh, Cece, honey, when they're that age, they're not cougars.
00:23:50They're saber-toothed tigers.
00:23:56Well, then we just got to make him an offer he can't refuse.
00:24:06You really should have iced these right away.
00:24:07I realize that now.
00:24:09I've only ever sparred with gloves on, never thrown a bare-knuckle punch before.
00:24:16What?
00:24:18Did I just hand in my man card?
00:24:20No, you knocked a guy out with one punch.
00:24:22Your man card is fully intact.
00:24:25You just sounded like a prep school rich boy for a second.
00:24:33Not just for today, but for everything.
00:24:35It's been really lonely since my dad died, and it's nice having someone on my side.
00:24:40There's no need to thank me.
00:24:43I am your husband.
00:24:46Close your eyes.
00:24:57Okay.
00:24:59Fair is fair.
00:25:01I owe you one.
00:25:02Fair is fair.
00:25:04I owe you one.
00:25:24Sorry.
00:25:26I know we're just pretending.
00:25:28Right.
00:25:30Pretending.
00:25:32Yeah.
00:25:34I'm gonna...
00:25:36I'm gonna go for a run.
00:25:38Okay, I'll come with...
00:25:44What if it's just me?
00:25:46Wouldn't that be ironic?
00:25:48The first woman I'm into for so long is not into me.
00:25:50Fuck!
00:26:02Griffin kissed me, and it felt just like that night three years ago.
00:26:07What's wrong with me?
00:26:09How can I feel the exact same way for two different men?
00:26:23I don't know.
00:26:25He looks like a wet street dog.
00:26:27I'll shower and a haircut, and he'll be mine.
00:26:29I'll shower and a haircut, and he'll be marginally presentable.
00:26:32Hey!
00:26:34You!
00:26:39We got a proposition for you.
00:26:41How'd you like to be richer than you ever imagined?
00:26:44Well, that'd be a dream, ma'am.
00:26:46Get in.
00:26:59Are you sure he's not homeless?
00:27:02Eats like a dirty pig.
00:27:04So you want me to divorce Shelby
00:27:07and marry Victoria Wilcox, the shithouse billionaire?
00:27:16You will refer to them as porta-potties, young man.
00:27:20We know you're after Shelby's inheritance, but she's never gonna see it.
00:27:25Well...
00:27:27He'll do.
00:27:29Oh.
00:27:31Oh, he'll do just nicely.
00:27:35Wait a minute.
00:27:37Have we met before?
00:27:39Because you look real familiar.
00:27:41Oh, no.
00:27:43Nope, I don't think I run in your kinds of circles, Ms. Wilcox.
00:27:48The first document are official divorce papers.
00:27:53The first document are official divorce papers.
00:27:55The first document are official divorce papers.
00:27:58And you will also be paid 20 grand a month to provide
00:28:02intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:28:07Oh, you don't need to worry, boy.
00:28:09Because I have the libido of a 26-year-old.
00:28:25I don't understand.
00:28:27This says...
00:28:29You're under arrest for pandering.
00:28:32Detective McSwain,
00:28:34this woman has tried to recruit me as a sex worker.
00:28:39That's a class C felony.
00:28:41He's lying.
00:28:44And you will also be paid 20 grand a month to provide
00:28:48intimate services of a sexual nature.
00:28:50Detective.
00:28:52Detective, detective.
00:28:54There must be some misunderstanding.
00:28:56There's no nonsense going on here.
00:28:59No, you can't arrest me on the word of that bum.
00:29:02He set me up.
00:29:04Detective McSwain, it's getting late.
00:29:06I'd like to go home and see my wife.
00:29:13Wait.
00:29:16You have made a big mistake rejecting me.
00:29:18I'm a woman of wealth and power that you cannot fathom.
00:29:23I will make you pay very dearly for this.
00:29:26I don't think anyone mentioned my last name.
00:29:29It's Roy.
00:29:35Well, I knew you looked familiar, you see.
00:29:39I'm just an old woman.
00:29:41You could forgive me.
00:29:43Get out of my face.
00:29:45Get out of my face.
00:29:49Hold on.
00:29:51Excuse me.
00:29:53Alright, we got her in the car.
00:29:55How far do you want this to go?
00:29:57Put the fear of God in there.
00:29:59Mug shot, fingerprints, the works.
00:30:02Then in the morning, drop the charges.
00:30:04Before the press gets wind.
00:30:06Here, sir, to have your hide.
00:30:08You got it, Griff.
00:30:15Where have you been?
00:30:17I was worried you were gone so long.
00:30:19Yeah?
00:30:21Yeah.
00:30:23Uh, are you hungry?
00:30:25I can heat up some leftovers.
00:30:27Yeah, I'd like that.
00:30:31Did that just happen?
00:30:33Maybe I have a shot with her after all.
00:30:34Oh, baby, my little girl.
00:30:38I will never forget the humiliation that man has caused us.
00:30:43Don't you worry, mama.
00:30:45I have a plan.
00:30:47I had all night to think about it in that cold, heartless place.
00:30:51You're not alone.
00:30:53I'm not alone.
00:30:55I'm not alone.
00:30:57There's no one else.
00:30:59No one.
00:31:01No one.
00:31:02about it in that cold, hard cell.
00:31:05If he doesn't want to divorce Shelby, fine.
00:31:08We'll just force Shelby to divorce him.
00:31:12And I know just where to hit it where it hurts.
00:31:17It's amazing.
00:31:18I think we shaved 30 seconds off that time.
00:31:36I thought I was competitive.
00:31:38You can't even compete with yourself.
00:31:45You're not growing.
00:31:50You're dying.
00:31:51I, um, I'm going to go shower.
00:31:56Me too.
00:31:59Get a grip, Shelby.
00:32:03So he's hot.
00:32:04You've been around dozens of smoking hot men in the service.
00:32:08What makes him any different?
00:32:10He just is.
00:32:13Hey, Zara.
00:32:16Shelby, you have to get here right away.
00:32:19Buford's kicking us out the gym.
00:32:22I'm sorry, my hands are tied.
00:32:27He says we have to leave.
00:32:30Okay, I got this.
00:32:32Mr. Buford, what are you doing?
00:32:34This is my place of business.
00:32:35You're done here.
00:32:36I sold the building.
00:32:37The new owners want you out.
00:32:40That's illegal.
00:32:41I have a lease.
00:32:42They've got a break clause for new management, and they decided to activate it.
00:32:46Who the hell is they?
00:32:52That would be us.
00:32:53Cliff, we can take it from here.
00:32:58Sure thing.
00:32:59Pleasure doing business with you, ladies.
00:33:01I know you used all your army money for this gym, but you can get it back.
00:33:06All you have to do is sign this divorce petition.
00:33:09Get a divorce, give up your inheritance, and then you can keep your dinky, smelly gym.
00:33:24I bet you want to hit me so bad.
00:33:27Not so tough now, are you, Shelby?
00:33:29Screw you.
00:33:30I'll just pack up and find a new location.
00:33:33Sorry, the building is now closed for renovations, and everything inside now belongs to me.
00:33:41Of course, you could sue, but that would take months.
00:33:46Well, what would happen to your gym now, Shelby?
00:33:50That's blackmail.
00:33:51We like to call it capitalism.
00:33:53You don't sign, we close the gym, and then you lose everything.
00:33:59Think about what you're doing.
00:34:01This gym is a lifeline for so many women.
00:34:03I won't let you take it from them.
00:34:05You can beg, but I won't budge.
00:34:10Be a smart girl and sign the papers by tomorrow, or you can kiss your Valkyrie Fight Club goodbye.
00:34:17And watch us turn it into Valkyrie Strip Club.
00:34:22Isn't that a good idea?
00:34:25There's poles and everything.
00:34:26Oh my.
00:34:27Plenty of girls.
00:34:28They're cute.
00:34:29They are cute.
00:34:30Cute enough.
00:34:40I'm not here because I'd give a damn if you win.
00:34:43I'm here to make sure that Griffin Roy doesn't.
00:34:45Well, the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
00:34:49The fuck you say?
00:34:51What exactly did Roy do to earn your loathing?
00:34:55He partnered up against me with a she-warrior.
00:34:59I want to see them both destroyed.
00:35:02Well, with your connections and my political might, I think that might be able to be arranged.
00:35:17LaRose got Andre.
00:35:18What are we going to do about this?
00:35:21Nothing.
00:35:22We do not want these two pairing up, alright?
00:35:24This is political suicide.
00:35:26Just talk to Shelby.
00:35:27Maybe if you both apologize...
00:35:29Um, hell no.
00:35:30Let them do their best.
00:35:32Mark my words.
00:35:33This is going to come back to bite you in the ass.
00:35:41Hello, Shelby.
00:35:43Griffin.
00:35:44We need to talk.
00:35:52Shelby.
00:35:53What's going on?
00:35:54You sounded tense on the phone.
00:35:58I have so many missed moments.
00:36:00Things I should have said or done.
00:36:02Chances that were lost that might have been pivotal to my life.
00:36:06I don't want you to be another moment that I miss.
00:36:21You first.
00:36:23Okay.
00:36:46You first.
00:36:53You first.
00:37:24You first.
00:37:30That was...
00:37:31Fucking amazing.
00:37:43Griffin?
00:37:44Where are you going?
00:37:46Griffin?
00:37:48Griffin!
00:37:51Explain yourself.
00:37:53Toothbrush.
00:37:56BJ's.
00:37:58This is Jacques.
00:38:00Why?
00:38:02You're my wife.
00:38:03I sleep with you now.
00:38:04We probably should have talked this through.
00:38:07Yeah.
00:38:08You said you had missed moments.
00:38:11I've had them too.
00:38:13You will not be one of them.
00:38:16I know we said we were pretending, but...
00:38:19I want to give us a chance.
00:38:21A real one.
00:38:23Oh?
00:38:53I love you.
00:39:12I now pronounce you man and wife.
00:39:17Kiss the bonnie lass while I don't ya!
00:39:24I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:39:34Cece, meet me at the gym in one hour.
00:39:36We can go over the divorce papers.
00:39:43Goodbye, my husband.
00:39:53I knew something must have happened.
00:40:01Hello?
00:40:02Pierce.
00:40:03I need you to use all your connections to find out what Cece and Margot Trudeau did to Shelby yesterday.
00:40:10Because of them, my wife is divorcing me.
00:40:14It's five in the morning.
00:40:16You have an hour.
00:40:22How did Cece get the money to buy the entire Rampart Drive building?
00:40:26She and Margot Trudeau are using the Trudeau mansion as collateral.
00:40:29Stupid.
00:40:30Good for us, bad for them.
00:40:32And the property title?
00:40:34Still in escrow.
00:40:35The title hasn't been transferred yet.
00:40:37Make sure it is...
00:40:39your name.
00:40:40You're about to be the proud owner of a mid-rise building on Rampart Drive.
00:40:44Oh.
00:40:45Goody, goody.
00:40:47PHONE VIBRATES
00:40:51Talk to me, McSwain.
00:40:52I showed the fake guards in lockup Cece Trudeau's mugshot.
00:40:55You're right.
00:40:56She's the one who hired them to rough up your wife.
00:40:58How'd you know?
00:41:00Had her M.O. written all over it.
00:41:02I take it the kid gloves are off this time?
00:41:04Oh, yeah.
00:41:05Cece Trudeau thinks she's untouchable.
00:41:07Let's show her just how wrong she is.
00:41:17I'm glad you finally came to your senses, Shelby.
00:41:20I definitely have.
00:41:23Showtime.
00:41:24I'm your campaign manager, not some hired muscle.
00:41:28Here's what I think about your agreement.
00:41:33Did you see that?
00:41:34Did you see that?
00:41:35She chose me, man.
00:41:36She chose me.
00:41:37Well, hell.
00:41:39Looks like she did.
00:41:41You fucking bitch!
00:41:44That's her cue.
00:41:47Say goodbye to your gym, Shelby.
00:41:50You're going to lose everything.
00:41:52You know, at least I still have my self-respect,
00:41:54which is more than I can say for you.
00:41:56Don't be hasty, Cece.
00:41:58She's basically a man.
00:41:59You'll get hurt.
00:42:00I will find a way to reclaim what is rightfully mine,
00:42:03but I will never agree to your demands.
00:42:07Reclaim what's yours?
00:42:08You're never going to step foot in your precious gym ever again.
00:42:13That will be difficult to enforce since I now own the building.
00:42:17Who the hell are you?
00:42:19Pierce Durand.
00:42:20The new owner of 222 Rampart Drive.
00:42:27Your deal fell out of escrow.
00:42:30I swooped in and bought it.
00:42:32That's impossible.
00:42:33I own it.
00:42:35Let me spell this out in a way that even an imbecile will understand.
00:42:39I outbid you.
00:42:40Wait.
00:42:41I outbid you.
00:42:42The building is mine.
00:42:44Now scram.
00:42:46I'm Emma.
00:42:48Ms. Trudeau,
00:42:49I want to ensure you that your lease is secure.
00:42:52The only change will be a 40% rent reduction.
00:42:56That's unbelievable.
00:42:58Are you sure you can afford that?
00:43:00Oh, yeah.
00:43:02Thank you, Mr. Durand.
00:43:05The gym means a lot to the women in this community.
00:43:11CC Trudeau, you're under arrest for extortion.
00:43:14The fake guards identified you as the one who paid them to attack Shelby Trudeau.
00:43:19Okay, well, but that was last week.
00:43:21You can't arrest me now.
00:43:22We most certainly can.
00:43:24And this time, the charges won't be dropped.
00:43:26No, no, no.
00:43:28No, you can't take my girl.
00:43:30No, you can't take her.
00:43:31I'm coming after you.
00:43:32I'm never going to forget this when I get out.
00:43:34You're mine.
00:43:35You're mine.
00:43:44Zara,
00:43:46call everyone.
00:43:48Valkyrie Fight Club is back in business.
00:43:57Well, aren't you going to go over there?
00:43:59You're the one that orchestrated this whole thing.
00:44:02No.
00:44:03It's her victory.
00:44:05I merely did what a husband should to ensure her happiness.
00:44:09That's my reward.
00:44:10That is some wild shit you just spouted.
00:44:13This girl is seriously causing you to lose it, Griff.
00:44:15You worry too much.
00:44:16And you don't worry enough.
00:44:18We have a campaign to win,
00:44:20and you're ten points behind LaRoche in all the latest polls.
00:44:23What are you driving at?
00:44:25Tell Shelby who you are.
00:44:27The voters need to know who your wife is,
00:44:28and we need to be able to shape the narrative.
00:44:31You wait too long,
00:44:32and Neville LaRoche is going to find out
00:44:34and beat us to it.
00:44:36Okay.
00:44:37I'll tell her.
00:44:39I just...
00:44:40I need a few more days
00:44:42of just me with her.
00:44:44Then I'll confess everything.
00:44:55That's Shelby Trudeau,
00:44:56owner of the Valkyrie Fight Club.
00:44:59Pretty girl.
00:45:01So is she screwing
00:45:03Duran or Roy?
00:45:04I don't know, sir.
00:45:06That luncheon was so boring, Neville.
00:45:09Those stuck-up twats
00:45:11kept going on and on
00:45:13about their precious lineages dating back to the Mayflower.
00:45:20Not everyone's white trash like you, Isabel.
00:45:25It is a wonder
00:45:26how you overcame your
00:45:28low-class origins
00:45:30and gained my interest.
00:45:32That wasn't your interest, darling.
00:45:34That was your cock.
00:45:36Touche, my dear.
00:45:38Why are you looking at a picture of her?
00:45:40Do you know Shelby Trudeau?
00:45:42Well, she went by Michelle in high school.
00:45:45But yeah, that's her.
00:45:47She was a star athlete
00:45:48with an annoying habit of defending every loser in school.
00:45:52From bullies like you,
00:45:54per se.
00:45:57Oh, that is unfortunate.
00:46:00You'll have to work that much harder
00:46:01for when you two reconnect.
00:46:04No, no.
00:46:05Meet your new bestie, Isabel.
00:46:07Baby, no.
00:46:15It's cooling off.
00:46:17We should go inside.
00:46:19Just a few more minutes.
00:46:21Can't remember the last time I let myself just
00:46:24be
00:46:27Yeah.
00:46:28I think it was when my parents were still together.
00:46:31Before the divorce, the cheating,
00:46:34mom getting sick.
00:46:36I was carefree then.
00:46:38I joined the army after, but
00:46:40that was just another rollercoaster.
00:46:43It's kind of hard to chill
00:46:44when you're deep in hostile territory
00:46:46cutting off weapons supply routes.
00:46:49I'm glad you feel safe here.
00:46:53It's not the place, it's the person.
00:46:57I feel like I've known you forever.
00:47:04Shelby, I have to tell you something.
00:47:13I guess I can wait
00:47:14one more day.
00:47:21Our most sought after class at Valkyrie
00:47:23is our women's self-paced kickboxing.
00:47:27Sign me up.
00:47:30Oh shit, Isabel.
00:47:32The girl who made my life
00:47:33and everyone else's
00:47:34a living hell in high school.
00:47:36What sneaky BS is she up to?
00:47:39Oh my gosh!
00:47:40Michelle?
00:47:41Is that you?
00:47:42I go by Shelby now.
00:47:44You look amazing!
00:47:46Michelle...
00:47:47Shelby
00:47:48and I go way back.
00:47:50Gosh.
00:47:51What a small world.
00:47:53Well, for our membership
00:47:54we offer weekly
00:47:55and monthly subscriptions.
00:47:57How about
00:47:58I pay up front
00:47:59for three years
00:48:00and I'll be sure to tell
00:48:01all my friends to join.
00:48:04You know, if you're really
00:48:05serious about this
00:48:06you'll have to lose the bling
00:48:07before class.
00:48:12I was a mean girl
00:48:13in high school
00:48:14and I'm really ashamed of it.
00:48:16What you've built here
00:48:17is so empowering.
00:48:19If I had had something
00:48:20like this growing up
00:48:21then maybe I would have
00:48:22found the courage
00:48:23to stop my pa
00:48:25from all the horrible things
00:48:26he did to me and Ma.
00:48:30Shelby, can we start over?
00:48:32Would you let me
00:48:33try to make it right?
00:48:37Okay.
00:48:46This is so awesome!
00:48:48How about lunch?
00:48:49I'm free to grab
00:48:50a bite right now.
00:48:51We can catch up.
00:48:54Okay.
00:48:56Let me grab my bag.
00:49:06Griffin Roy has made
00:49:07criminal justice reform
00:49:08the heart of his campaign.
00:49:10He's pro-union
00:49:11and has a five-point plan
00:49:12to improve workplace
00:49:14safety regulations.
00:49:16Shit!
00:49:18No, no, not you.
00:49:20I gotta call you back.
00:49:24Okay.
00:49:30LaRoche knows about Shelby.
00:49:31He sicked Isabelle on her.
00:49:32Look, here's her Instagram.
00:49:36What the fuck?
00:49:38LaRoche's oppo research
00:49:39must have tagged her.
00:49:40Look, we just lost control
00:49:41of the narrative, Griffin.
00:49:43Screw the narrative,
00:49:44it's a trap.
00:49:45They've got my wife.
00:49:47I thought this was supposed
00:49:48to be a quick bite.
00:49:50I have a business to run,
00:49:51you know.
00:49:52You haven't changed a bit
00:49:53since high school.
00:49:54So dedicated.
00:49:55I've always admired
00:49:56that about you.
00:49:59All right, cut the crap, Izzy.
00:50:01Others might buy
00:50:02your ladylike act,
00:50:03but I know you're still
00:50:04the same vicious bully inside.
00:50:07You didn't come to my gym
00:50:08by accident.
00:50:09What's your angle?
00:50:10Neville asked me
00:50:11to befriend you.
00:50:13I don't know what you're
00:50:14talking about.
00:50:15I don't want to befriend you.
00:50:16I don't want to be here.
00:50:18So I can just add that
00:50:19to the list of reasons
00:50:20why I fucking loathe you.
00:50:23What's my angle, Shelby?
00:50:26The complete and utter
00:50:27destruction of Griffin Roy.
00:50:30And if I can take you
00:50:31down with him,
00:50:32all the better.
00:50:39Shelby, listen to me.
00:50:40The press are on their way.
00:50:41I don't have time to explain,
00:50:42but I fucked up.
00:50:43You have to get out
00:50:44of that restaurant.
00:50:45Now.
00:50:49Too late to run.
00:50:50My hubby's here.
00:50:52Leaving so soon, Ms. Trudeau.
00:50:54Or should I say,
00:50:55Mrs. Roy?
00:50:59Come on, Shelby.
00:51:00Pick up.
00:51:01Let me know
00:51:02you got out of there.
00:51:05Who the hell are you?
00:51:06Congressman.
00:51:07Neville LaRoche.
00:51:09I understand why
00:51:10your husband probably
00:51:11never mentioned me.
00:51:12Seems as how there's so much
00:51:13he hasn't told you.
00:51:14Please, sit down.
00:51:16Isabel was supposed
00:51:17to keep you company
00:51:18until after I arrived.
00:51:20No matter.
00:51:21We'll do this
00:51:22the less genteel way
00:51:24if we must.
00:51:27Both of these men
00:51:28are retired Navy SEALs.
00:51:30I've heard a lot about
00:51:31your fighting skills,
00:51:33so I came prepared.
00:51:40What's this about?
00:51:43I spoke with your stepmother,
00:51:45Margo.
00:51:47She had quite the story to tell.
00:51:49It seems Roy has led you
00:51:51to believe that he's some bone
00:51:53on the streets.
00:51:54When actually,
00:51:56well, he's just about
00:51:57one of the wealthiest men
00:51:58in the state.
00:51:59I can't believe
00:52:00you fell for that.
00:52:02Not so smart now,
00:52:03are you, Shelby?
00:52:05You're lying.
00:52:07You are Roy's
00:52:08secret bride.
00:52:10A woman he is
00:52:11so ashamed of
00:52:12he would hide the marriage
00:52:13for the rest of the world.
00:52:15When the press arrives,
00:52:17you will share
00:52:18your story of betrayal
00:52:19with the voters of Louisiana
00:52:21so that they may know
00:52:23what kind of man
00:52:24Roy really is.
00:52:34Hey.
00:52:35I got you.
00:52:38Let me go.
00:52:40Shelby, please.
00:52:43Why did you keep
00:52:44your marriage a secret?
00:52:45The voters have a right to know.
00:52:46What else are you hiding?
00:52:48You son of a bitch.
00:52:50Well, now, Roy.
00:52:52Don't blame others
00:52:53for your own stupid mistakes.
00:53:05Shelby.
00:53:06Shelby, please.
00:53:07Hear me out.
00:53:08Don't
00:53:09Shelby
00:53:10me.
00:53:11God, all of your charm.
00:53:12It's just a lie.
00:53:14I never meant
00:53:15to let it get this far.
00:53:16I planned on coming clean.
00:53:18More lies,
00:53:19Gryffin Roy?
00:53:20I was going to tell you today.
00:53:21Convenient.
00:53:23Why didn't you just tell me
00:53:24you were a billionaire
00:53:25from the start?
00:53:26Did you actually think
00:53:27I'd come after you
00:53:28for your money?
00:53:30That was always
00:53:31a possibility.
00:53:33Get away from my house.
00:53:35This is technically
00:53:36my home.
00:53:38God, how sitting my ass.
00:53:41You are the worst
00:53:42and I never
00:53:43want to see you again.
00:53:46Shelby.
00:53:53Congressional candidate
00:53:54Gryffin Roy
00:53:55has a secret bride.
00:53:56Our reporter is
00:54:11going to get a sip of that.
00:54:42Ah.
00:54:54This is private property.
00:54:56Which I own.
00:54:57Liar.
00:54:58Pierce Durand owns this building.
00:55:00He works for me.
00:55:02Then I'll move.
00:55:03I don't want to owe you anything.
00:55:12Oh, Shelby.
00:55:13Shelby.
00:55:14Come out, would you please?
00:55:18I wake up in the morning
00:55:19and reach for you.
00:55:21But you're not there.
00:55:30I can't breathe
00:55:31at the thought of losing you.
00:55:35Mr. Vance,
00:55:36I'm sorry.
00:55:37I'm sorry.
00:55:38I'm sorry.
00:55:39I'm sorry.
00:55:40Mr. Roy,
00:55:41do you think she'll
00:55:42ever forgive you?
00:55:45You're ridiculous.
00:55:46You do know that,
00:55:47don't you?
00:55:49Oh, Shelby.
00:55:50Shelby.
00:55:51Don't leave me hanging.
00:55:53What are you doing?
00:55:54You're supposed
00:55:55to turn it on.
00:55:57Yeah.
00:55:58I got it from a pawn shop.
00:56:01It's broken.
00:56:02Guy totally scammed me.
00:56:04You are beyond ridiculous.
00:56:06Please, Shelby.
00:56:08I didn't say
00:56:10what I wanted to before.
00:56:11Just
00:56:12give me a chance to explain.
00:56:16Fine.
00:56:17Come in, you fool.
00:56:20I'll come in
00:56:21on my own.
00:56:22I'll...
00:56:26You have two minutes.
00:56:34Growing up
00:56:35as a Roy,
00:56:38no one ever liked me for me.
00:56:41It's always been about
00:56:42the money,
00:56:44the access.
00:56:47Then,
00:56:48at a moment,
00:56:50three years ago,
00:56:52where someone did
00:56:53like me
00:56:54for me,
00:56:57they had no idea who I was.
00:56:59And I just remember
00:57:01how freeing
00:57:03it felt.
00:57:05So,
00:57:06when I met you,
00:57:08and I felt that spark
00:57:09I've been searching for,
00:57:12I didn't think.
00:57:14I just
00:57:15fucking left.
00:57:17Why wait so long to tell me?
00:57:19I've never
00:57:20gone into enemy territory
00:57:22to cut off
00:57:23weapons supply routes.
00:57:26I boxed in prep school.
00:57:28Yeah,
00:57:29you got that right.
00:57:30But otherwise,
00:57:32I've always been more of
00:57:33a lover
00:57:35rather than a fighter.
00:57:37And I've done well as a lawyer.
00:57:39But I did not
00:57:40earn those billions.
00:57:43I inherited them
00:57:45from
00:57:46generations
00:57:48of dickheads.
00:57:51When you meet a girl,
00:57:52it's a total package.
00:57:54You just want to be her
00:57:55total package, too.
00:57:57You really are ridiculous.
00:58:00You know, I have laughed
00:58:01more with you in the past
00:58:02two weeks than I have
00:58:03in my entire life.
00:58:06I'm way too serious, Griffin.
00:58:08Sometimes I forget
00:58:09how to let go.
00:58:11But with you,
00:58:12every day is fun.
00:58:14So, does that mean
00:58:15you forgive me?
00:58:17I'm thinking about it.
00:58:21Yeah.
00:58:23You think too much.
00:58:24Time for makeup sex.
00:58:30So,
00:58:31that's makeup sex.
00:58:34Yeah.
00:58:38Griffin, it hurts so much
00:58:39thinking we were over.
00:58:43I never want to feel
00:58:44like that again.
00:58:46I promise not to let
00:58:47anything get in between us.
00:58:55This changes everything.
00:58:58No, thanks for the heads up.
00:58:59I'd appreciate it if you
00:59:00could keep it buried
00:59:01for as long as possible.
00:59:10Ron?
00:59:13I want to stay right here.
00:59:22Where the hell are you, Griff?
00:59:24This is DEFCON 1.
00:59:27Hey, man.
00:59:28Seriously?
00:59:29That's all you have to say?
00:59:30Seriously?
00:59:31That's all you have to say?
00:59:36Come on.
00:59:41How could you keep
00:59:42something like this from me?
00:59:43We've known each other
00:59:44since college.
00:59:45What are you talking about?
00:59:46Didn't you get any
00:59:47of my texts or calls?
00:59:49I must have forgot
00:59:50to charge it.
00:59:52I had quite a night last night.
00:59:54Shelby and I made up.
00:59:56She's forgiven me.
00:59:57Well, she won't
00:59:58forgive you for this.
01:00:01You're a goddamn bigamist,
01:00:02Griffin Roy.
01:00:07Michelle Lane.
01:00:09I don't even know who that is.
01:00:11Well, you knew her well enough
01:00:12to marry her three years ago.
01:00:16This can't be right.
01:00:18I got it from a parish clerk.
01:00:19She's agreed to keep it
01:00:20hush-hush for now.
01:00:22The ceremony was conducted
01:00:23at a church.
01:00:24The priest signed
01:00:25and completed
01:00:26her certificate.
01:00:27Father Timothy O'Shea.
01:00:32I now pronounce ye
01:00:33man and wife.
01:00:36The Masco from Mardi Gras.
01:00:38I finally know her name.
01:00:40Michelle.
01:00:42Shit.
01:00:43That finally makes sense.
01:00:45Of course, you wouldn't
01:00:46knowingly become a bigamist.
01:00:49Shelby.
01:00:50Fuck.
01:00:52What am I gonna tell her?
01:00:53Look, it could still
01:00:54be one big mistake.
01:00:56I need to talk to that priest.
01:01:04I have something for you.
01:01:13I hacked into
01:01:14the parish database.
01:01:15Griffin Roy is legally married
01:01:17to both Michelle Lane
01:01:18and Shelby Trudeau.
01:01:20That's it.
01:01:21He's finished.
01:01:23Griffin Roy
01:01:24will be in jail for
01:01:25bigamy or cocktail hour.
01:01:28Michelle Lane is
01:01:29Shelby Trudeau.
01:01:31They're legally married
01:01:32to each other
01:01:33on two separate occasions.
01:01:34They just don't know it yet.
01:01:37That's insane.
01:01:38Check the date.
01:01:39They got married
01:01:40the first time
01:01:41during Mardi Gras.
01:01:42Roy was obviously
01:01:43publicly intoxicated.
01:01:45We could use that angle.
01:01:46Yeah, the romance
01:01:47is already trending.
01:01:49He made an idiot of himself
01:01:51with that boombox
01:01:52and voters.
01:01:53Oh, they're just
01:01:54eating it up.
01:01:56He's catching up
01:01:57in the polls.
01:01:59Now,
01:02:00Roy unknowingly
01:02:01marries twice
01:02:02the girl he's been
01:02:03searching for
01:02:04since Mardi Gras.
01:02:05This will make them
01:02:06seem like some
01:02:07fated love story.
01:02:12This will make them
01:02:13seem like some
01:02:14fated love story.
01:02:18We got nothing on him.
01:02:20Honey, we've got
01:02:21everything we need.
01:02:22What they don't know
01:02:23can definitely hurt them.
01:02:25And right now,
01:02:26to Griffin Roy,
01:02:27Michelle Lane,
01:02:28could be anybody.
01:02:32You would have given
01:02:33Machiavelli a run for his money,
01:02:35my dear.
01:02:36Who?
01:02:40Well,
01:02:41we have a very limited window
01:02:42to make this work.
01:02:44We will hit hard
01:02:46and win fast.
01:02:52What is she going to say
01:02:53when I tell her I'm married?
01:02:57All right, ladies.
01:02:58Good job.
01:02:59That's it for tonight.
01:03:00Remember,
01:03:01this weekend's Mardi Gras.
01:03:02Have fun,
01:03:03but you know what to do
01:03:04if anybody messes with you.
01:03:06Nice work.
01:03:08Hi.
01:03:10Hungry?
01:03:13Yeah, so, um,
01:03:14today's class went super well.
01:03:16Two new students.
01:03:17They really seem to
01:03:18pick up on a lot of things.
01:03:20You're everything
01:03:21I've ever wanted.
01:03:22Everything I didn't even
01:03:23dare to dream.
01:03:25You're it for me.
01:03:26I can't lose you.
01:03:28Griffin, are you okay?
01:03:31Yeah.
01:03:33Just some stuff
01:03:34for the campaign.
01:03:37I want to help.
01:03:38LaRoche can't win.
01:03:40He and Isabel are evil.
01:03:42You're the kind of man
01:03:43that people need.
01:03:44I can't imagine
01:03:45anyone else but myself.
01:03:47I'll come by the campaign office
01:03:48tomorrow.
01:03:49We will plan a siege
01:03:50that surrounds them
01:03:51from all sides.
01:03:53That sounds amazing, Cheryl.
01:04:02Father?
01:04:06I remembered the two of you.
01:04:08You had it, lad.
01:04:09That special spark.
01:04:12I don't see it often in couples,
01:04:13but when I do,
01:04:14it makes an impression.
01:04:16You must be mistaken.
01:04:18This woman and I,
01:04:19we'd met that day.
01:04:21And you were already
01:04:22finishing each other's sentences,
01:04:23dying to tie the knot.
01:04:24There was no stopping you.
01:04:26I was drunk.
01:04:27Drunk with love.
01:04:29The man I married
01:04:30knew what he was doing.
01:04:32I mean, how is this even legal?
01:04:33New Orleans has
01:04:34a 24-hour waiting period.
01:04:36Unless the judge waives it.
01:04:37Son of a bitch.
01:04:39Who was it?
01:04:40He was your best man.
01:04:41You called him Remy.
01:04:43Remy Cal.
01:04:45That bastard.
01:04:47No wonder he always had
01:04:48that stupid smirk on his face
01:04:49whenever I stood before him in court.
01:04:52Fuck.
01:04:54Fuck.
01:04:58I don't care.
01:04:59I don't care.
01:05:00We need to annul the marriage now.
01:05:02I love my wife.
01:05:03You're in a bit of a pickle.
01:05:04Because in my book,
01:05:07you love your other wife as well.
01:05:12Sir.
01:05:14Mrs. Array is in your office
01:05:15with Mr. Durand.
01:05:16Shelby.
01:05:21Griffin,
01:05:22this is the woman
01:05:23you've been looking for.
01:05:24This is Michelle Lane.
01:05:27Hi, Griffin.
01:05:29You might not remember me,
01:05:30but we got married
01:05:31three years ago.
01:05:38So you've been an escort
01:05:39for seven years.
01:05:41That's right,
01:05:42since high school.
01:05:43And that really is your toddler?
01:05:44My baby girl Fleur.
01:05:46She has no daddy.
01:05:47This will be good for her.
01:05:52If I may ask,
01:05:53how will she pass the DNA test?
01:05:55That is the least of your worries.
01:05:58All right, chop chop.
01:06:05Now action.
01:06:08Hi, Griffin.
01:06:10You might not remember me,
01:06:11but we got married
01:06:12three years ago.
01:06:14It was Mardi Gras.
01:06:16We were completely wasted
01:06:17and we ended up
01:06:18in some church
01:06:19with an Irish priest.
01:06:21We had a wild night
01:06:22at the hotel,
01:06:23and well,
01:06:24Fleur was the happy accident
01:06:26nine months later.
01:06:31It can't be true.
01:06:33I've never met you in my life.
01:06:34I mean,
01:06:35you were wearing masks.
01:06:36Yes, that's right.
01:06:37We were.
01:06:38By the time I found out
01:06:39I was pregnant,
01:06:40two months had passed.
01:06:42I've been trying to find you
01:06:43ever since,
01:06:44but it wasn't until I saw
01:06:45one of your ads for Congress
01:06:46that I recognized your voice.
01:06:48It was a miracle.
01:06:50It's too much.
01:06:51She's losing him.
01:06:53Tone it down.
01:06:54Tone it down.
01:06:58Listen, lady,
01:06:59I don't know what you're trying to con
01:07:00with this ad.
01:07:01Griffin, don't.
01:07:03But there is
01:07:04no way in hell
01:07:05that I'm married to you.
01:07:07What's going on, Griffin?
01:07:11Is this woman really your wife?
01:07:14No.
01:07:16She's not.
01:07:17We don't know.
01:07:19Which is it?
01:07:20You are my wife.
01:07:21Only you.
01:07:24I understand this is
01:07:25a lot to take in.
01:07:27Fleur and I will just go.
01:07:28I'll have my lawyer reach out.
01:07:30No.
01:07:31No lawyers.
01:07:32We don't need to involve
01:07:33any authorities.
01:07:35This can all be solved
01:07:36with a simple
01:07:37DNA test.
01:07:39Pierce,
01:07:40this woman is a fraud.
01:07:41Griffin, think about it.
01:07:42She says Fleur is your daughter.
01:07:44One little test
01:07:45and that'll prove
01:07:46if she's lying or not.
01:07:47We need to know, Griffin.
01:07:49I need to know.
01:07:52Fine.
01:07:53But I don't want these doubts
01:07:54to fester.
01:07:55We can rush the DNA results
01:07:56and get them back in a few hours.
01:07:58Might I suggest
01:07:59a more private setting?
01:08:01Less eyes.
01:08:02Understood.
01:08:04We can wait back at my house
01:08:05for the results to come.
01:08:13We've got them.
01:08:14You're up.
01:08:43No, no, no, no.
01:08:46Cute kid.
01:08:48Don't.
01:08:50Just don't.
01:08:51Shelby go upstairs.
01:08:53She fed them snacks
01:08:55and then
01:08:56locked herself in the guest room.
01:09:00I can't lose her,
01:09:01Pierce.
01:09:04I won't.
01:09:13Moment of truth, buddy.
01:09:35Fleur,
01:09:36meet your daddy.
01:09:38I will, of course,
01:09:41provide for you both
01:09:42financially.
01:09:44Fleur doesn't need a checkbook.
01:09:45She needs a father.
01:10:03What do you want?
01:10:05The guest bedroom is empty.
01:10:08You and Fleur can stay there.
01:10:11Shelby,
01:10:13just
01:10:14don't do this.
01:10:16Just give me some time.
01:10:18I can fix it.
01:10:20This isn't something you fix.
01:10:22You can't be legally married
01:10:23to two women at the same time
01:10:24and you have a child
01:10:25with one of them.
01:10:29We need to get a divorce.
01:10:33She's right, Griff.
01:10:35Griffin,
01:10:36you have a daughter now.
01:10:38You're a father
01:10:39and you have to put your child first.
01:10:42I can't be Marco.
01:10:44I won't do that to another little girl.
01:10:48I've spent my whole life
01:10:50looking for you.
01:10:54How can I let you go?
01:10:59Sometimes love isn't enough.
01:11:05How'd you know Shelby
01:11:06would leave him because of the kid?
01:11:08Shelby's dedicated her life
01:11:09to saving people.
01:11:10It's not in her nature
01:11:11to put herself first.
01:11:13Oh, you're a scary woman.
01:11:16I know.
01:11:31So this is what it feels like
01:11:32to have your heart shattered?
01:11:37Yes.
01:12:07That's strange.
01:12:08I thought I heard something.
01:12:37It's like she was never here.
01:13:08Hey, mister.
01:13:10Will you marry me?
01:13:13She took everything
01:13:14but left this behind.
01:13:16Message received,
01:13:17Shelby.
01:13:29What the hell is this?
01:13:32I don't know.
01:13:34I don't know.
01:13:35What the hell is this?
01:13:38I know this sounds crazy
01:13:39and there's no time to explain,
01:13:41but if you help me,
01:13:42I promise a generous reward
01:13:43once I get my inheritance.
01:13:45This place is insane.
01:13:47The owner must really trust you.
01:13:53Could it be?
01:14:05It's her.
01:14:06It's always been her.
01:14:09Yeah, it went better
01:14:10than I expected.
01:14:12Yeah, it went better
01:14:13than I expected.
01:14:14As soon as you saw
01:14:15the forged DNA test,
01:14:16it was a done deal.
01:14:17Who is she working for?
01:14:19How long am I supposed
01:14:20to stay here
01:14:21while you take care of Shelby?
01:14:22Give me a name.
01:14:23Come on, just one name.
01:14:25Mrs. LaRoche,
01:14:26that's cutting it close.
01:14:27I want to be long gone
01:14:28when he finds out she's dead.
01:14:32Where is Shelby?
01:14:33Where is my wife?
01:14:35Where is Isabelle taking me?
01:14:36I don't know
01:14:37what you're talking about.
01:14:38I will have you put away
01:14:39for the rest of your life
01:14:40and your daughter
01:14:41will grow up
01:14:42in a fucking orphanage.
01:14:44I don't know where she is.
01:14:45If I knew,
01:14:46I'd tell you, I swear.
01:15:01What is wrong with me?
01:15:06Help!
01:15:08Somebody help!
01:15:11Do you need some water?
01:15:13Oh wait,
01:15:14I see you've already had some.
01:15:16You poisoned me?
01:15:18Why?
01:15:20Why?
01:15:21Why?
01:15:23Where to begin?
01:15:26Lingering high school issues,
01:15:27offs.
01:15:29I'm helping Neville's campaign,
01:15:30duh.
01:15:32But the real reason,
01:15:33the one that cuts deep,
01:15:35is to make Griffin Roy
01:15:36think he's a bigamist.
01:15:39By the time he figures out
01:15:40he married the same woman twice,
01:15:43you'll have gone missing,
01:15:44vanished without a trace.
01:15:48He'll be forced to withdraw
01:15:49from the race.
01:15:51Later,
01:15:52when an anonymous tip
01:15:53tells the police
01:15:54where to find your body,
01:15:55suspicion will follow Griffin
01:15:56for the rest of his life.
01:15:58Any political future
01:15:59he may have had
01:16:00will be as dead as you.
01:16:02Net?
01:16:04Back up.
01:16:06Married?
01:16:07Twice?
01:16:09Who's the...
01:16:12the woman in the little girl?
01:16:14Oh,
01:16:15just some cheap whore I hired
01:16:16to tell your husband
01:16:18that they've been married
01:16:19for the past three years.
01:16:20When really,
01:16:22it's been you all along.
01:16:24You've been searching
01:16:25for each other all this time.
01:16:28But now he'll never find you.
01:16:31Alright boys,
01:16:32she's all yours.
01:16:39I told you I'd get you back.
01:16:47Miss Tudor,
01:16:48why are you here?
01:16:49My daughter,
01:16:50my baby Cece,
01:16:52I'm scared she's gonna do
01:16:53something terrible.
01:16:55What do you mean,
01:16:56terrible?
01:16:57What's going on?
01:16:58I sold everything
01:16:59to get her out on bail
01:17:01and you,
01:17:02what does she do in return?
01:17:03She's,
01:17:04she's gone crazy.
01:17:05She's stalking Shelby.
01:17:07She tailed her
01:17:08to some hotel
01:17:10in the French Quarter.
01:17:13What hotel?
01:17:15Excuse me sir,
01:17:16my sister's staying here
01:17:17but I've forgotten
01:17:18her room number.
01:17:19Is Shelby Trudeau?
01:17:21Sorry ma'am,
01:17:22we can't disclose
01:17:23any guest information.
01:17:31Shelby.
01:17:34Come out,
01:17:35come out
01:17:36wherever you are.
01:17:46I think I'll do a show
01:17:47with my bare hands.
01:17:49Make some more personal.
01:17:52Actually,
01:17:53do me a favor.
01:17:54Leave a lot of marks
01:17:55on that face of hers.
01:17:58Fuck you.
01:17:59I want people to see
01:18:00that she suffered
01:18:01a lot.
01:18:02Oh trust me,
01:18:04she will.
01:18:05Come on,
01:18:06let's get this party started.
01:18:22Look what you've done.
01:18:27Pansy ass slap.
01:18:30She's stalling
01:18:31and you're falling for it.
01:18:33Damn,
01:18:34can't go to the valet
01:18:35smelling like a dive bar.
01:18:37I'll never give you
01:18:38your car keys.
01:18:39Shelby has clothes
01:18:40over there.
01:18:41Change.
01:18:43I'll take care of me,
01:18:44you go take care of her.
01:18:52Now they grip.
01:18:53Shelby Trudeau
01:18:54changed her name
01:18:55to Michelle Lane.
01:18:56It was after her parents
01:18:57divorced at her mother's request.
01:18:59She only returned
01:19:00to her original name
01:19:01after her mother passed
01:19:02three years ago.
01:19:06It's starting to make sense now.
01:19:08It was harder on my mom.
01:19:10She didn't want anything
01:19:11to do with him,
01:19:12so I cut him off too.
01:19:14He even started using
01:19:15my mom's maiden name.
01:19:16She's the one
01:19:17you've been looking for.
01:19:18It's been her all this time.
01:19:20How could it be so blind?
01:19:23Of course it had to be Shelby,
01:19:24it had to be her.
01:19:26My heart knew
01:19:27what my brain couldn't see.
01:19:29I got it.
01:19:30Your girl's in room 801.
01:19:33Thanks, man.
01:19:35Now I gotta go save
01:19:36the love of my life.
01:19:43Too much to drink.
01:19:52Stop right there.
01:19:58Not so fast.
01:20:01Griffin fucking Roy.
01:20:04Finally joined the party.
01:20:06I'm here for my wife.
01:20:08Not gonna happen, brah.
01:20:10What you've done here
01:20:11is aggravated assault,
01:20:12but if you leave
01:20:13this hotel with her,
01:20:14it's kidnapping.
01:20:16That is a federal crime.
01:20:17They'll bring in the FBI.
01:20:20Someone will have to be
01:20:21around to identify us.
01:20:23That sure as hell won't be you.
01:20:27Did you get all that, Pierce?
01:20:29Police are on their way.
01:20:30Hang in there, buddy.
01:20:33You're not getting out
01:20:34if you're alive, Roy.
01:20:53Give me my wife back now!
01:20:58Ah!
01:21:12Show me.
01:21:13You all right?
01:21:15No!
01:21:28Ah!
01:21:48Griff, my God.
01:21:50Do you need medical attention?
01:21:51No, but they do.
01:21:58Oh.
01:22:02I guess I renewed my man card.
01:22:05Sure did, honey.
01:22:06Fucked him up real good.
01:22:10Oh, Lord, please tell me
01:22:11there's something other than
01:22:12fatigues and combat boots
01:22:13in this thing.
01:22:23Shelby!
01:22:24You little bitch!
01:22:25Didn't I say I'd come back here
01:22:26and settle the score?
01:22:29What?
01:22:31That's not Shelby!
01:22:34Put your hands up
01:22:35or I can see them.
01:22:41This is the last one.
01:22:42Hey, hey, hey.
01:22:43I want to make a deal.
01:22:44What do you have to offer up?
01:22:46Congressman Neville LaRoche.
01:22:48I'm all ears.
01:22:56Is it really over?
01:22:58Yeah, it is.
01:23:01Griffin, Isabel said something
01:23:02and I want to believe it, but
01:23:05three years ago, did we...
01:23:10You left us.
01:23:19It's true.
01:23:21I can't believe I finally found you.
01:23:23I looked for you
01:23:24in the face of every woman I ever met.
01:23:28Why'd you never come back?
01:23:46It's called a walk of shame,
01:23:48not a laugh of it.
01:23:50Mind your own business, Cece.
01:23:51Look at you, Shelby.
01:23:53One Mardi Gras hookup
01:23:54and you think you found
01:23:55happily ever after.
01:23:57That's not how life works.
01:23:59Sure, he may have liked you
01:24:00with the mask on,
01:24:01but he's not going to want you
01:24:02with it off.
01:24:04Look, you both have
01:24:05a great memory now,
01:24:07but you'll look back and
01:24:08you'll see that you're just
01:24:09the clueless chick
01:24:10who didn't know the score.
01:24:13You'll embarrass yourself
01:24:14and more importantly,
01:24:15you'll embarrass him.
01:24:17I waited in that hotel
01:24:18for two days.
01:24:20I'm sorry I let her
01:24:21get to me,
01:24:23but to be honest,
01:24:24what we had seemed
01:24:25too good to be true.
01:24:27How often do people
01:24:28fall in love with someone
01:24:29without ever seeing their face?
01:24:31Exactly.
01:24:35But I did.
01:24:37And I do.
01:24:39We're friends, aren't we?
01:24:41Yeah, we are.
01:24:42But I did.
01:24:44And I do.
01:24:46Where do we go from here?
01:24:48Married twice,
01:24:49deeply in love,
01:24:51risked our lives
01:24:52to save each other.
01:24:53I'd say we live
01:24:55happily ever after.
01:24:58Shelby,
01:25:00will you...
