00:00:00I checked. It seems my husband made a mistake and double leased this apartment to both of you.
00:00:04Excuse me, what are you doing?
00:00:05You're living with a guy?
00:00:07Yeah, it's a really long story.
00:00:08It burns. It burns.
00:00:10Oh, I'm not allowed to eat.
00:00:12No!
00:00:12Well, is he hot at least?
00:00:13Yeah, and it makes it kind of worse.
00:00:15Remember when I said I had a roommate?
00:00:17Come on in.
00:00:17And now he's also my boss.
00:00:21Corinne.
00:00:22I'm Corinne. I'm new to the team.
00:00:26Welcome to Turn Time Media.
00:00:28Have a nightcap with me later and the deal is yours.
00:00:32Look, I don't know who the fuck you think you are,
00:00:34but I am not that kind of girl, okay?
00:00:36I don't play nice with men like you.
00:00:38You let an employee talk to a client like that?
00:00:40Do you want our business or not?
00:00:45Let's go.
00:00:49I'm starving.
00:00:50There's muffins on the counter.
00:00:54I'm sorry, just stay.
00:00:58But I just really want to kiss you right now.
00:01:06Dude, Corinne is a Carlton.
00:01:09She comes from one of the wealthiest families in the country.
00:01:11And he comes from a rich family.
00:01:14Rhodes Hotels.
00:01:16Why didn't she hide that?
00:01:17Excuse me, what are you doing?
00:01:29I'm opening my apartment door.
00:01:31What does it look like?
00:01:32No, that is my apartment.
00:01:35I just got the keys.
00:01:38Yeah, I think you're mixed up, princess.
00:01:40Maybe you're in 105.
00:01:42Please try.
00:01:43I think I know what my apartment is.
00:01:44I think you're in 105.
00:01:48Yeah, I don't think so.
00:01:51Bye-bye now.
00:01:51And good luck with whatever it is you've got going on.
00:02:04Case in point.
00:02:06Wait, no, no.
00:02:06What the hell are you doing?
00:02:08Let go of the door, asshole.
00:02:09I am not an asshole.
00:02:10This is my door.
00:02:11It's my apartment.
00:02:11No, it is not.
00:02:13Quiet out there.
00:02:14I'm trying to watch the game.
00:02:17Can you tell her this is my apartment?
00:02:26I checked.
00:02:27It seems my husband made a mistake and double-leased this apartment to both of you.
00:02:31Okay, well, is there another unit you could give her?
00:02:33Because I'm not leaving.
00:02:34Well, I am not leaving.
00:02:35Unfortunately, this is our last available unit.
00:02:38Well, I sincerely hope that you can figure something else out.
00:02:41I will pay double deposit if you let me have this place.
00:02:43Excuse me?
00:02:44Ma'am, I'm serious.
00:02:45You have no idea how badly I need this.
00:02:49Here, take my credit card.
00:02:59What?
00:03:00How?
00:03:02How?
00:03:04Well, well, well.
00:03:06Can I have the apartment now?
00:03:07No, no.
00:03:09I paid the deposit and got approved.
00:03:11Same as you.
00:03:12Unfortunately, Mr. Rhodes did apply first.
00:03:14Oh, please call me Andy.
00:03:19Andy, how could you be this cruel?
00:03:23First, you leave me at the altar, and now you're trying to steal our apartment?
00:03:28You know, I really thought that you loved me.
00:03:30Are you too?
00:03:31No, no, no, no.
00:03:32I don't know this woman.
00:03:33I've never met her before in my life.
00:03:36We celebrated our five-year anniversary in April, and our first date was on the pier.
00:03:41You won me an octopus, Andy.
00:03:43An octo-what?
00:03:45Seriously, I don't know this woman.
00:03:46Ma'am, if he says he doesn't know you, I have to abide by policy, and I just...
00:03:54I'm pregnant.
00:03:55You can't abandon me on the street with a baby on the way.
00:04:05With a baby on the way?
00:04:07No, no, no, no.
00:04:08You can't believe a word she is saying.
00:04:09She is crazy.
00:04:10Mr. Rhodes, if you can't reconcile with your poor fiancé, I'm going to have to call security.
00:04:18Since you both paid a deposit, the first two months' rent is covered.
00:04:24Okay, who are you?
00:04:25You don't recognize the girl you left at the altar?
00:04:29Really hurts, Andy.
00:04:33Okay, look, I had to do something.
00:04:35Today was my wedding day, and I just really couldn't go through with it, so I ran.
00:04:38Yeah, I kind of gathered that.
00:04:39My credit cards are frozen.
00:04:40Oh, my bank account is probably churned, too.
00:04:42Look, it was really an emergency.
00:04:43Okay, what is your name?
00:04:47Corinne.
00:04:48Corinne Car-
00:04:50Carter.
00:04:51Okay, Corinne, you know, you seem really nice and sane and all,
00:04:56but emergency or not, you just manipulated your way into my apartment.
00:05:00Your apartment?
00:05:01Well, you did hear her, right?
00:05:02I did pay half of the rent for the next two months.
00:05:05Oh, well, how are you going to pay that when it's up?
00:05:08You're broke.
00:05:10I will figure it out, okay?
00:05:11Just relax.
00:05:16No, don't.
00:05:17Don't do this, Andy.
00:05:18Look, this is a bad idea.
00:05:19You don't even know her.
00:05:20Why would you feel bad for her?
00:05:21It makes no sense.
00:05:35Um, I think you lost something there.
00:05:37Magic Mike?
00:05:40Well, on the contrary, I'm making myself at home.
00:05:43This is my apartment, so I can wear or not wear whatever I want.
00:05:48Are you sure you can handle this arrangement?
00:05:51You've never lived with a guy before.
00:05:54You might want to back down.
00:05:56I don't want to make you uncomfortable.
00:06:09Rest assured, despite this tempting face and this nice body, I'm just fine.
00:06:24The real question is whether you will be.
00:06:29Um, what, uh, what's this book?
00:06:34Well, you would know if it wasn't upside down.
00:06:40I'm cleaning this one.
00:06:44What?
00:06:45No, I wanted that room.
00:06:47Oh, come on.
00:06:48It gets the good light and everything.
00:06:50Should have been faster done.
00:06:59Hey, Corinne.
00:07:00I heard what happened.
00:07:02So sorry.
00:07:03No, it's okay, Monica.
00:07:04I mean, it's probably for the best.
00:07:06It was my choice after all.
00:07:07That's good to hear.
00:07:09So I sent your severance package to your personal email.
00:07:12Since your work email was deactivated, take a look and sign it when you can.
00:07:15My what?
00:07:16Your severance package.
00:07:18Did your dad not-
00:07:19He's firing me?
00:07:21Oh my god, Corinne.
00:07:23I'm so sorry.
00:07:24I would love to help you, but your dad threatened me.
00:07:27Well, it sounds like him.
00:07:28No, it's it's okay, Monica.
00:07:30I, I got an apartment.
00:07:32At least I have somewhere to live.
00:07:33Well, that's good.
00:07:34That's a new place.
00:07:35It's fine.
00:07:39Ugh, my roommate.
00:07:40He is kind of an asshole, but it's fine.
00:07:42He?
00:07:43You're living with a guy?
00:07:44Yeah, it's a really long story.
00:07:46Remind me to tell you about it at some point.
00:07:48Well, is he hot at least?
00:07:51Okay, well, yeah, and it makes it kind of worse.
00:07:53Well, you let me know if he tries anything.
00:07:55I'll come over there and teach him a lesson.
00:07:57I've gotta go.
00:07:58I'm really sorry, Cory.
00:07:59I'll catch you later.
00:08:01Bye.
00:08:05And just when I thought it couldn't get any worse.
00:08:09I'm sorry.
00:08:16Corinne, hurry up.
00:08:17I need to pee.
00:08:26Sorry, what did you say?
00:08:27It's loud in here.
00:08:29Look, get out.
00:08:30I need to pee.
00:08:33Yeah, no, just take your time.
00:08:34It's not like the rest of us have bladders or anything.
00:08:36Look, I have got a job interview and I've got to look my best.
00:08:39Okay?
00:08:45Hello?
00:08:46What are you still doing in here?
00:08:48I am not done with my hair.
00:08:50You can go ahead.
00:08:51I'm not gonna look.
00:08:52Are you insane?
00:08:52I can't use the bathroom while you're in it.
00:08:54Wow, I really didn't take you for a prude, Andy.
00:08:58I guess you just have to wait a little bit longer.
00:09:00I am serious.
00:09:01I'm gonna be late for work.
00:09:04Okay, fine.
00:09:05Catch you later.
00:09:07Okay, get it together, Andy.
00:09:09She's just your roommate.
00:09:13Oh, no!
00:09:16Well, Corinne, your experience at the Carleton Group speaks for itself.
00:09:22And with a sharp wit like that, you will fit right in here at term time.
00:09:26Where can you start?
00:09:27I can actually start right now.
00:09:29Excellent.
00:09:30The boss will love you.
00:09:32He has been looking for a decent person to fill this empty position on his team
00:09:36for months.
00:09:37I can introduce you.
00:09:38Wait, that would be perfect.
00:09:40Let's go.
00:09:41Great.
00:09:44Come on in.
00:09:47I'm Corinne.
00:09:50Yes, the promising candidate I was telling you about.
00:09:54I just interviewed her.
00:09:55I think she'll be a perfect fit.
00:09:57I'll leave you guys to it.
00:10:02So this is the interview that you spent an hour preparing for?
00:10:06Well, too bad he won't be getting the job.
00:10:11Well, too bad he won't be getting the job.
00:10:14Wait, that's not fair.
00:10:15I had no idea that this was your ad agency, okay?
00:10:17And you cannot punish me for an innocent mistake.
00:10:20Well, actually, as it is my ad agency, I can do whatever I want.
00:10:24Okay, well, then how do you expect me to pay your precious little rent
00:10:27if I don't have a job?
00:10:28It's easy.
00:10:29Go find a job somewhere else.
00:10:32Leave.
00:10:33Ugh.
00:10:41Oh my god.
00:10:44I am so sorry.
00:10:45I was not looking where I was going.
00:10:48Oh, are you reading Approvance?
00:10:51I love this book.
00:10:51I read it in high school.
00:10:52I really have never met anyone who's actually read it.
00:10:55Oh, um, Miss Rosenberg.
00:10:57I didn't know you were coming in today.
00:10:59Please step into my office so we can discuss the rebranding.
00:11:01No worries at all.
00:11:02I was early.
00:11:03I just met your very impressive associate.
00:11:06I feel good about turntide media already.
00:11:09You know, it's so nice to see such bright minds here.
00:11:12Well, actually...
00:11:13Yes, thank you.
00:11:14This is Corinne.
00:11:15She is the newest addition to our marketing team.
00:11:17It's her first day.
00:11:18It is?
00:11:21It is?
00:11:22Yep.
00:11:23It is?
00:11:24It is.
00:11:25Go wait in the break room.
00:11:26I'll give you a tour in a second.
00:11:28You better treat her nicely, Rhodes.
00:11:29I would steal her from my company in a heartbeat.
00:11:51Hi, I'm Corinne.
00:11:53I'm new to the team.
00:11:54We thought you really put on a show out there.
00:11:58Do you need anything, Corinne?
00:12:00Oh, wait.
00:12:01Are you the coffee girl?
00:12:02You know, I would really, really love a matcha latte.
00:12:04We only have coffee, I'm afraid.
00:12:06I'll make you some.
00:12:07Bummer.
00:12:12So, what were your names again?
00:12:20Lilia.
00:12:21Welcome to Turntide Media.
00:12:27Uh, Mr. Rhodes would like to see you in his office.
00:12:39Come in.
00:12:46What the hell happened to you?
00:12:48I...
00:12:50It was the coffee machine.
00:12:51Super finicky.
00:12:52Do you mind if I go home and change?
00:12:54You're living out of a duffel bag.
00:12:56Do you have anything to change into?
00:12:58Okay.
00:13:01Here.
00:13:03Take my card.
00:13:04Go get yourself some new clothes.
00:13:06We have a client meeting later tonight.
00:13:07You can't go looking like that.
00:13:09But, no, I couldn't take your-
00:13:10No, take it.
00:13:11I see it as an investment in company talent.
00:13:14Take it, Corinne.
00:13:17All right, then.
00:13:19So, I'll see you back at the apartment.
00:13:20We can go from there?
00:13:22See you.
00:13:24Have fun.
00:13:25I will.
00:13:26Bye.
00:13:50What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:13:53What the fuck is wrong with you?
00:13:58Huh?
00:14:01Who spends $10,000 in one afternoon using somebody else's money?
00:14:07Fuck, Griffith.
00:14:09I'm sorry, did you just say $10,000?
00:14:11Yes!
00:14:11My bank called me.
00:14:12They thought my credit card was stolen.
00:14:14Oh, my god.
00:14:14What the hell, Corinne?
00:14:15I'm so sorry.
00:14:15I didn't even look at the tax.
00:14:16I just picked out things that I liked.
00:14:18This... this is how you shop?
00:14:19Uh, high-end luxury stores without cash?
00:14:22High-end luxury stores without looking at the price?
00:14:25I mean, before you ran away, what were you?
00:14:27Look, I will return everything.
00:14:28I have the receipt, okay?
00:14:29It's... it's somewhere.
00:14:31Um, I promise that this will all be resolved by tomorrow.
00:14:35Corinne, just...
00:14:38I'm not happy about how this happened, but...
00:14:40don't go to the trouble.
00:14:41It's whatever.
00:14:42Now, come on.
00:14:43We have to go meet with that client.
00:14:44So, chop-chop.
00:14:46Whatever?
00:14:46You're not mad?
00:14:47I mean, I was when I thought you were taking advantage of me,
00:14:49you are just completely financially irresponsible.
00:14:52Hey!
00:14:53Am I wrong?
00:14:54Look, I can return everything, okay?
00:14:56Look, just forget it.
00:14:57It's not a big deal.
00:15:02Ten thousand dollars down the drain, and it's just...
00:15:06whatever?
00:15:09Is he, like...
00:15:16Apologies for the delay, Mr. Kepner.
00:15:18Rush hour traffic.
00:15:19No matter, boy.
00:15:23Now, who do we have here?
00:15:24Oh, Corinne Carter.
00:15:26I am the new marketing associate with Turntide Media.
00:15:28Brought her along as part of the onboarding process.
00:15:30She'll be shadowing this meeting.
00:15:32If I had known you hire such magnificent specimens at your agency, Rhodes,
00:15:38I'd have given you the deal right then.
00:15:44Well, of course, we would be honored if you would choose us,
00:15:47but, um, I would hope it's for less superficial reasons, but...
00:15:51Well, I'm assuming you're joking.
00:15:53How about I get us some drinks?
00:15:59Tell you what, Miss, uh, Karen, uh, Carla?
00:16:04Have a nightcap with me later, and the deal is yours.
00:16:09Excuse me?
00:16:10Oh, it's a really good deal, honey.
00:16:12It's just one night.
00:16:14You do want to make your boss proud, don't you?
00:16:18Look, I don't know who the fuck you think you are,
00:16:21and you're probably too drunk to even realize,
00:16:23but I am not that kind of girl, okay?
00:16:25I do play nice with men like you,
00:16:26so why don't you just keep your dirty hands off of me?
00:16:30You let an employee talk to a client like that?
00:16:34Do you want our business or not?
00:16:38Well...
00:16:40You mean, am I gonna let a client talk to an employee like that?
00:16:50And the answer's no!
00:16:51You punched me.
00:16:53You punched me!
00:16:54Do you know who I am, boy?
00:16:56I do now.
00:16:58Let's go.
00:17:09Oh.
00:17:27How to dust.
00:17:35Okay, well, I don't have whatever that is.
00:17:39Oh.
00:17:49Shit!
00:17:51Uh, uh, okay.
00:17:54What are you doing in my...
00:17:58Oh my god.
00:17:59What did you do?
00:18:01It was an accident.
00:18:02I barely touched it.
00:18:02It just, it just fell.
00:18:03You ruined the only thing I have left of my first dog!
00:18:06On accident!
00:18:09I am so sorry.
00:18:11I'm going to sweep it up and...
00:18:12No!
00:18:13No!
00:18:13Get out.
00:18:14Get out!
00:18:15Get out!
00:18:20Get out!
00:18:22You can't kick me out!
00:18:22This is my apartment, too!
00:18:24I'll make sure you get the deposit back!
00:18:25Leave!
00:18:28Wait, I don't have my phone or wallet or anything, Andy!
00:18:31Look, I can't go anywhere!
00:18:33Andy!
00:18:40I'm sorry, little guy.
00:18:44No more roommates.
00:18:57Was she trying to clean my room?
00:19:09Corinne?
00:19:35Okay, I guess this is it, too.
00:19:39Okay.
00:19:49Wow, I wonder what happened to her.
00:19:51Sleeping in the office in pajamas?
00:19:52It's a first.
00:19:54Do you think she got kicked out of her apartment by her boyfriend?
00:19:57Two.
00:19:58It's morning already.
00:20:00Nice pajamas.
00:20:04Leave me alone.
00:20:09Corinne, can I see you in my office, please?
00:20:26Go home and change.
00:20:29I thought you evicted me.
00:20:31Half of the office has already seen you like this.
00:20:33Don't you want to change?
00:20:40This is not a good idea.
00:21:04It's just not there yet.
00:21:06Have you guys seen Corinne yet?
00:21:07You mean since this morning?
00:21:10No.
00:21:12How unprofessional.
00:21:18Corinne?
00:21:21Corinne?
00:21:35Corinne?
00:21:36Corinne?
00:21:37Hey, are you okay?
00:21:54Corinne?
00:21:57Oh my god, you're burning up.
00:21:59Why?
00:22:00No, you have a fever.
00:22:02Stay here.
00:22:03I'll get some medicine.
00:22:06Hey, come on, take this.
00:22:13Come on.
00:22:15I'm sorry, just stay.
00:22:36Why am I naked?
00:22:59Um, so, um.
00:23:03Relax.
00:23:05I am familiar with the human body.
00:23:07You know, I even have one of my own.
00:23:08But you want me to, uh, take this off so that we're even?
00:23:12Yeah, no, I've seen, I've seen enough of you.
00:23:14Thank you very much.
00:23:14Um, let's just pretend that this never happened, all right?
00:23:20Are you feeling better?
00:23:21I think so.
00:23:23But I'm starving.
00:23:25There's muffins on the counter.
00:23:32You got muffins?
00:23:34They were a gift from a client.
00:23:36Don't eat them all.
00:23:44Who the hell are you?
00:23:46Who the hell are you?
00:23:47What are you doing in Andy's apartment?
00:23:49Are you the maid or something?
00:23:51Excuse you, I live here.
00:23:53And you haven't explained who you are yet.
00:23:55I'm Betty, Andy's fiancée.
00:24:00I'm Betty, Andy's fiancée.
00:24:02Not my fiancée.
00:24:04Betty, just because our parents shook hands on it before we were born doesn't make it real.
00:24:08Now, please stop stalking me.
00:24:11Well, I wouldn't have to stalk you if you hadn't ghosted me.
00:24:13Oh, damn, this apartment's even dingier than the last one.
00:24:17You ghosted her?
00:24:18Oh, that is so bad.
00:24:21You know, would you have preferred that I file a restraining order?
00:24:24That is really bad, too.
00:24:26I would just cut it now.
00:24:28Oh, you'd love that, wouldn't you?
00:24:30Oh, what, do you think you're his girlfriend or something?
00:24:34Well, actually, yes.
00:24:36What?
00:24:36Yes, and we are very happy.
00:24:42Well, I guess this apartment came with more than one downgrade.
00:24:44Excuse you.
00:24:45Come on, Andy, stop playing hard to get.
00:24:48You know we belong together.
00:24:50No, now leave before I call the police.
00:24:52No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:24:57I knew it was weird for the owner of an advertising agency to be in this apartment.
00:25:02How many girls are going to knock on our door, Andy?
00:25:08How many girls are going to be knocking on our door, Andy?
00:25:10Shut up, and it's none of your business.
00:25:13My big shot roommate is a playboy with a trail of broken heart.
00:25:17Lucky am I for the free entertainment.
00:25:26Mrs. Rhodes.
00:25:27It's a pleasure to have you here at Turntide.
00:25:31Who's your guest?
00:25:32Oh, Andrew, this is Mr. Carlton.
00:25:35Of the Carlton Group.
00:25:36The one and only.
00:25:39Mr. Carlton, would you mind if I had a word with Mrs. Rhodes?
00:25:42Melissa here will show you upstairs.
00:25:49What, did I do something wrong?
00:25:51Why are you here, again?
00:25:53To bring you another outstanding opportunity.
00:25:56Andy, Mr. Carlton can improve your standing immensely.
00:26:00Come on now.
00:26:01Mom, I have told you a million times.
00:26:03I want to make a name for myself.
00:26:05Stop meddling in my business.
00:26:07No, you know what?
00:26:09You are going to hear him out.
00:26:10Now, let's not keep him waiting.
00:26:11Come on now.
00:26:12What are you looking for?
00:26:26I can't seem to find a file on the Braxton Project.
00:26:30You know, I think Andy took that into his office.
00:26:32Oh.
00:26:37Somebody's got in trouble.
00:26:42Okay.
00:26:54Done?
00:26:55Four, as of now.
00:26:56But, uh, we're looking to expand in the next quarter.
00:26:58Please.
00:27:01So, what brings you here today?
00:27:03The Carlton Group.
00:27:04We are very interested.
00:27:06Pardon me.
00:27:13Excuse me?
00:27:14Sorry, I, um, stubbed my toe.
00:27:17Please continue.
00:27:18Well, like I was saying, I'm interested in acquiring TTM.
00:27:23Uh, well, I'm, uh, I'm flattered, Mr. Carlton.
00:27:27But we're not looking to be bought anytime soon.
00:27:29I'm very proud of how far we've come as an independent startup.
00:27:32And I have plans to grow it further on my own.
00:27:34I think it's a brilliant idea.
00:27:36I mean, joining with the Carlton Group would give TurnTide the much-needed
00:27:40stability in this very competitive industry.
00:27:43Our identity as a young, contemporary brand distinguishes us in the marketplace.
00:27:47I'm not so sure that TurnTide would mesh well with the Carlton Group's long-standing traditions.
00:27:53Well, you won't have to create a new identity, of course.
00:27:55I mean, you're an ad agency.
00:27:57That's your job, right?
00:27:58Your younger generation just doesn't appreciate the value of an established brand.
00:28:04And do you really want to go into competition with us?
00:28:07Mr. Rhodes, I think this is an opportunity of a lifetime.
00:28:12Thank you for the offer, Mr. Carlton.
00:28:14But I have to kindly refuse.
00:28:16Oh, Ed, you know how this generation is.
00:28:18Always changing their mind and so stubborn.
00:28:21But, you know, they always do come around.
00:28:26You have daughters, don't you?
00:28:28What is it, Chloe and Karen, isn't it?
00:28:32I only have one daughter, Chloe.
00:28:34Now, you have a big pitch coming up with the Goldfield Beer Group next week.
00:28:41We're also bidding on that deal.
00:28:42Do you want to make a bet to see who wins?
00:28:45How do you know about that?
00:28:46That was supposed to be a private pitch.
00:28:48I'm a Carlton, and I have eyes everywhere.
00:28:51If you win the Carlton deal, I will hand you three of my hand-picked beers.
00:28:57And if you win, I will hand you three of my hand-picked beers.
00:29:00If you win the Carlton deal, I will hand you three of my hand-picked most valuable clients.
00:29:07But if I win, you sell me your company.
00:29:14All right.
00:29:17Deal.
00:29:17Ah, all right.
00:29:19Bam!
00:29:20I'll look forward to acquiring your company.
00:29:24Oh.
00:29:31Oh, my God.
00:29:32So sorry for the interruption.
00:29:37Well, I will see you later.
00:29:38No, no, no.
00:29:38What were you doing under my desk and in my office?
00:29:41I was just looking for a file, and I thought it would be in here.
00:29:44And then I heard you coming, and it just felt like the best idea.
00:29:48You sure it doesn't have anything to do with Ed Carlton?
00:29:53Well, look, I may or may not have hit him with my bike three years ago,
00:29:57and I thought he was a good guy.
00:29:58I may or may not have hit him with my bike three years ago,
00:29:59and I thought he was going to recognize me.
00:30:01Okay, well, that's actually really funny, but I'm not really in a laughing mood.
00:30:04You heard everything that just happened.
00:30:06You're making the right choice.
00:30:08I know it's risky, but this could be your only shot to save Turntide.
00:30:14If you need any help, let me know.
00:30:21You deserve it.
00:30:22I do.
00:30:26Walk of shame?
00:30:28Yeah.
00:30:36Hey, congrats, man.
00:30:38What?
00:30:39She's a 10 for sure.
00:30:41Don't blame you one bit for taking a bite of new hire.
00:30:45Do you think I hired Corinne for anything other than her skill set?
00:30:48Maybe you should go find somewhere else to work.
00:30:49All right.
00:30:51Damn, man.
00:30:52Forget I said anything.
00:30:59Yeah, we can definitely do that.
00:31:03No, not a problem.
00:31:04We should be able to have it to you by tomorrow.
00:31:05I think it's...
00:31:07Let me call you back.
00:31:09Ah, Vince.
00:31:11To what do I owe the pleasure?
00:31:13Your mother would like you at a fitting for your wedding suit.
00:31:16We're here to escort you.
00:31:17Well, that's not going to happen.
00:31:19I have a really busy schedule today, and also I'm not getting married.
00:31:22Well, your mother is very insistent, Mr. Rhodes.
00:31:26Very.
00:31:27Did my dad send that?
00:31:28Well...
00:31:31Guys.
00:31:32Hey, let me go!
00:31:32Corinne, let me just...
00:31:33Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:31:40You didn't need to do that!
00:31:41I have been seeing these creeps around, okay?
00:31:43Be safe.
00:31:43Get pepper spray.
00:31:44Yeah, I'll look into that.
00:31:45Oh, I think you got some on my shirt.
00:31:47Oh, it's fine.
00:31:47I'll do laundry.
00:31:50Now?
00:31:50I can do laundry.
00:31:53I think.
00:32:27Oh.
00:32:28Oh, it burns.
00:32:29It burns.
00:32:29It burns.
00:32:32Oh, do not laugh at me.
00:32:36Ow!
00:32:46The other nail.
00:32:48Oh.
00:32:50This one.
00:32:55Come on.
00:32:56Come on.
00:33:03No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:33:06Spoon?
00:33:07I quit.
00:33:08No.
00:33:09No.
00:33:12Here.
00:33:18Okay, whatever my parents were getting me, they need to double it.
00:33:25Wax or oil?
00:33:26Oil.
00:33:34Cool stuff.
00:33:43Hey!
00:33:45Did you cook?
00:33:46Yep.
00:33:47And?
00:33:48I used a recipe.
00:33:49Oh, and the best part is...
00:33:54I cleaned the floors!
00:33:56You what?
00:33:59I just wanted to say thank you for all of your help and, you know, getting a job.
00:34:02And it's Saturday.
00:34:04So I cleaned the floors!
00:34:07Looks great in here.
00:34:08And it smells great, too.
00:34:10Yeah, well, get over here before it gets cold.
00:34:17What the hell did you clean the floors with?
00:34:18Uh, soap.
00:34:20Oh, and then I polished them with oil.
00:34:24Olive oil?
00:34:26I'm assuming that's not the right kind of oil?
00:34:28No, not the right kind of oil.
00:34:30We are going to walk very, very slowly to the towel closet.
00:34:34Yeah?
00:34:38Okay, let's go.
00:34:39Yeah, come on, try here.
00:34:41Thanks.
00:34:41Hey, Mom, where's your phone?
00:34:42Okay.
00:34:43I can't find my phone!
00:34:44I have a good idea!
00:34:44Where's my phone?
00:34:45Wait!
00:34:56Oh my god.
00:34:58Are you okay?
00:35:06It smells so good!
00:35:06It smells so good!
00:35:08It smells really great!
00:35:11I should-
00:35:12Brush, brush, brush.
00:35:13Yeah, I'll go get the towels.
00:35:14Yeah, yeah.
00:35:15Yeah.
00:35:15Yeah, you do that.
00:35:17Okay.
00:35:21Okay, new house rule.
00:35:23No more chores without supervision.
00:35:25Hey, dinner was edible.
00:35:32You get a hand over there?
00:35:34No.
00:35:40I'm all powerful.
00:35:42Yeah, the bruise on my ass would say otherwise, but...
00:35:45Sure.
00:35:47I'm really, really sorry about that.
00:35:49There's a lot I need to learn.
00:35:52Yeah.
00:35:53There's a lot that you do know.
00:35:54Yeah, like how to escape a wedding.
00:35:56Well, I saw those heels.
00:35:58That could not have been easy.
00:36:03If you could be any animal, which one would you be?
00:36:06I'd be like a spider monkey.
00:36:07Ooh.
00:36:08Okay, so which ones?
00:36:09Go?
00:36:09Jump?
00:36:10I don't know.
00:36:10X?
00:36:13Oh.
00:36:15You know, my mom taught my sister and I how to have perfect posture and impeccable taste.
00:36:21Actually.
00:36:23But she didn't teach us anything useful.
00:36:27Like how to cook or clean or live independently.
00:36:31I mean, I never really liked those lessons anyway.
00:36:33I was always just questioning everything.
00:36:35My sister was really good at it, though.
00:36:37And then at some point, they just stopped trying.
00:36:40So you have a sister?
00:36:41Yeah.
00:36:43Older.
00:36:44Chloe.
00:36:47She is the definition of golden child.
00:36:51Brilliant, beautiful, and most importantly, old.
00:36:55Yeah, in my parents' eyes, I was always the disappointing,
00:36:58troublemaking, younger sister who was only really good for one thing.
00:37:03Marriage.
00:37:06And hopefully to a guy who would just shut me up for good.
00:37:09I see.
00:37:11An arranged marriage.
00:37:13You don't really seem that surprised.
00:37:16Yeah, it happened to a friend of mine.
00:37:19Oh.
00:37:20Yeah.
00:37:22I only met him like once before the wedding.
00:37:26Well, you know what?
00:37:27I'm glad you ran away.
00:37:29Fuck him.
00:37:33Yeah?
00:37:34Yeah.
00:37:36Okay, well, I haven't really brought much peace into your life.
00:37:39I'm not good at everything like my sister, okay?
00:37:42I don't pick up on things easily.
00:37:43You're smart, Corinne.
00:37:45Scary smart sometimes.
00:37:46And I think that you just need to show them that you can live just as good of a life.
00:37:50No, you know what?
00:37:50Hell, better.
00:37:53On your own terms.
00:37:55And you're not alone.
00:37:59Why are you looking at me like that?
00:38:01No, I'm sorry.
00:38:02I just...
00:38:04I just really want to kiss you right now.
00:38:16No.
00:38:28No, no, no.
00:38:31Why?
00:38:34There better be something in your pocket.
00:38:36What are you imagining?
00:38:37Oh, God.
00:38:38No!
00:38:42Uh, we should...
00:38:44Yeah, help me.
00:38:45Okay.
00:38:47Okay, yep, okay, yep.
00:38:50Was I snoring?
00:38:51You know, I'm gonna get some water.
00:38:52I'm gonna get some water.
00:38:52Okay.
00:38:54This apartment is depressing, you know that?
00:38:59The only thing you own is action figures and video games.
00:39:01That is the definition of delinquency.
00:39:05Excuse me?
00:39:06Look, we've lived in this apartment long enough, okay?
00:39:08Where's the decor?
00:39:09The books?
00:39:11The books?
00:39:13I don't read books.
00:39:13It's the 21st century.
00:39:14Who owns books?
00:39:15Every sensible adult in the world.
00:39:18Well, I, uh, didn't take you for a nerd, Corey.
00:39:21Okay, this is unacceptable.
00:39:23You need to read, Andy.
00:39:24How can you be the founder of a media company if you don't read?
00:39:28I listen to podcasts.
00:39:29Gus.
00:39:31I gotta go run some errands.
00:39:32I'll be home later.
00:39:33Okay, you can just do whatever you want.
00:39:36Unless you're asking me for permission.
00:39:37In that case, no.
00:39:38Did you forget your keys again?
00:39:52Dad?
00:39:58Dad?
00:40:00So this is where you're spending your little vacation?
00:40:02No, um, this is my home.
00:40:06Home.
00:40:07That's very funny.
00:40:08This is merely a month-long tantrum befitting of a brat who is ungrateful as you.
00:40:15Well, I like it.
00:40:16When are you coming back?
00:40:17James did not like that stunt you pulled.
00:40:20And you embarrassed us all.
00:40:21I mean, you almost cost us our connection with the Prescott's.
00:40:25Luckily, James and his parents are willing to forgive.
00:40:29How did you find me?
00:40:30Oh, please.
00:40:31I hired a private investigator when you ran.
00:40:34I've known about this place for weeks.
00:40:36You cut me off completely just so you could secretly watch me suffer?
00:40:39No.
00:40:40This is my life now, okay?
00:40:42I have worked for it.
00:40:43Just leave me alone.
00:40:45Cutting you off was your punishment.
00:40:46It was to teach you a lesson.
00:40:47But apparently, I guess it didn't.
00:40:50You are a carlton.
00:40:51Act like it.
00:40:52Your sister is nearly ready to take over as the CEO of our company.
00:40:57While you are wasting our name.
00:41:01The least that you could do is accept your place as a dutiful wife.
00:41:05I am not some complacent little prize for your business partners.
00:41:09You know what?
00:41:11My boyfriend is coming home soon.
00:41:12And he really doesn't like it when I'm upset.
00:41:15Boyfriend?
00:41:16What boyfriend?
00:41:18What boyfriend?
00:41:19Well, his name is Andy.
00:41:20And if you don't know about him, maybe you should get a new private investigator.
00:41:24Now, get out.
00:41:26I regret this little girl.
00:41:35Andy?
00:41:47What are you doing here?
00:41:50I pass by this place every day.
00:41:52You know, I just thought I'd stop in and see what all the hubbub's about.
00:41:56Oh, did my comment get to you?
00:41:58We thought it was so sweet.
00:42:00No.
00:42:01No, I'm not buying anything.
00:42:05Well, I am.
00:42:07Hold this.
00:42:11Classic.
00:42:13Little women?
00:42:15Are they like Tinkerbell?
00:42:17They are full-sized.
00:42:19You two are building quite the library there.
00:42:23You two are building quite the library there.
00:42:25Oh, we were just getting started.
00:42:26No kidding.
00:42:27Well, we just got a very special shipment in.
00:42:30A rare first edition of The Complete Poems of Emily Dickinson by Thomas H. Johnson.
00:42:35Which is widely regarded as the authoritative collection of her work.
00:42:38And only for $200.
00:42:40It's an opportunity you can't miss if you're a true collector.
00:42:44Ma'am, Johnson's Complete Emily Dickinson, it may be her first full collection of her work,
00:42:49but it is far from authoritative.
00:42:51I mean, Miller's has been regarded as the leading version among scholars for, well, years.
00:42:55And if I wanted to get a first edition Johnson, I could easily get it for $80.
00:42:59So before you sell me an outdated and overpriced book,
00:43:01maybe you should just think about whether or not I'm an idiot.
00:43:05Well then.
00:43:09So, you can't do chores, but you're a literature expert.
00:43:16This one is my favorite!
00:43:18I've never heard of it.
00:43:19Oh, it is so juicy.
00:43:22High society affairs, unrequited love, plot twists.
00:43:27Oh, it is such a fun time.
00:43:29We have so many.
00:43:31Maybe next time.
00:43:35I'll see you later.
00:43:52Could you help me send a postcard?
00:43:55Who's this?
00:43:56This? He is...
00:43:59James Prescott.
00:44:00Currents Fiancé.
00:44:01And you are?
00:44:03Andy Rhodes.
00:44:05You have a fiancé?
00:44:07Okay, you are not my fiancé, James, and just quit telling people that.
00:44:10Look, just because you left me at the altar doesn't mean we won't get married eventually.
00:44:15Oh, you're that guy!
00:44:17Man, you know, you really can't take no for an answer, huh?
00:44:21Stay out of this.
00:44:22This is between me and her.
00:44:24She can make her own decisions.
00:44:26In fact, you know, why don't we ask her, Corinne?
00:44:28Did you change your mind?
00:44:29No, I didn't.
00:44:32Well, there you have it.
00:44:34No means no.
00:44:35And she's here with me, so you can go on about your day.
00:44:40And she's here with me, so you can go on about your day.
00:44:43Okay, look, man, I don't know what you think.
00:44:44Okay, guys, we are in public.
00:44:46James, I don't even know you, okay?
00:44:48This was all of our parents' idea, and I'm sure there is a lovely girl out there for you who is not me.
00:44:53There you go.
00:44:55Bye-bye now.
00:44:57I don't know who this punk thinks he is, but this isn't over.
00:45:00I wonder what your father has to say about this, Corinne.
00:45:05His hair's really shiny.
00:45:11Did you get oat in my coffee?
00:45:16I'll get us.
00:45:21Oh my goodness!
00:45:23I miss you so much.
00:45:24Ditto.
00:45:25Carlton just isn't the same without you.
00:45:28So, this is the new place, huh?
00:45:30Yeah, Turntide Media.
00:45:31Oh my god, let me give you a tour.
00:45:32Yes.
00:45:40It's a storm cloud.
00:45:41Yeah, remember when I said I had a roommate?
00:45:43And now he's also my boss.
00:45:47But he's not normally like that.
00:45:47I wonder what happened.
00:45:49I think I might know.
00:45:51Someone published an expose on Turntide Media.
00:45:54It's all over the news.
00:45:59Oh no, that's really bad.
00:46:01Yeah, I better go.
00:46:02But dinner soon?
00:46:03Okay, yes, please.
00:46:05Good luck.
00:46:07Thanks.
00:46:11That's a good start to the morning.
00:46:13I'm literally sick to my stomach right now.
00:46:18What's going on?
00:46:21Didn't you hear?
00:46:22We're the new poster child for unethical advertising.
00:46:24Apparently there was a recall on the first product deal Andy ever did as CEO.
00:46:28Oh shit.
00:46:29And the worst part, the Carleton group boosted the article immediately and said
00:46:33this is what happens when you let a bunch of money-hungry Gen Zers run an ad agency.
00:46:37They gotta be behind it.
00:46:38Didn't Ed Carleton just visit the office a week ago?
00:46:41Can I see you all in the conference room?
00:46:44Now.
00:46:45Okay, okay.
00:46:47What's gonna happen?
00:46:49As some of you may know, malicious headlines have been circling around Turntide.
00:46:55Most of the report is false, but
00:46:57we do have some evidence of an internal data leak.
00:47:00We have a mole?
00:47:04We have a mole?
00:47:06It's too soon to say, but I will get to the bottom of this.
00:47:08Well, if you ask me, everything was fine until a certain someone was hired.
00:47:14I guess the tabloids aren't the only one throwing around baseless accusations.
00:47:18I'm just putting together two and two.
00:47:20We didn't have a leak before you were hired.
00:47:22Enough.
00:47:23I didn't call this meeting so that people could point fingers at one another.
00:47:25The Goldfield pitch is coming up, and it is our top priority to secure this deal.
00:47:29If we can win them over, who knows?
00:47:30Maybe we can regain the trust of some of our other clients.
00:47:33This pitch is life or death for Turntide, so I'm gonna be presenting it.
00:47:41So, mind you, he's fully naked, and he drags me into the shower to show me his waterbending skills.
00:47:47But it was just water dripping down his fingers.
00:47:50Yeah, I was five.
00:47:51You know, I recall having to call 911 to, uh,
00:47:55rescue you from a tree after your failed experiment with flying using helium balloons.
00:48:00I was levitating off the ground for a little bit.
00:48:04You know, that's considered flying.
00:48:05That's right.
00:48:06It was.
00:48:18Shall we?
00:48:19Wait, look, where the hell are you guys going?
00:48:22You enjoy your night, bro.
00:48:28What the hell is happening?
00:48:30Okay, you really have to learn how to read a room.
00:48:33Their eyes have been glued to each other all night.
00:48:35Oh, good for them.
00:48:41You're cute.
00:48:43Come on, waterbender, let's go home.
00:48:52Well, I, for one, think Andy and Corrine would be great together.
00:48:56And not just because Andy introduced me to his best friend.
00:49:01He's my...
00:49:04Yeah, I'm really rooting for him, too.
00:49:06Just like Corrine's doing well.
00:49:07She's been through so much in such a short time.
00:49:11What, Andy didn't tell you?
00:49:16What, Andy didn't tell you?
00:49:17She got disowned by her rich family.
00:49:19They're apparently a big deal.
00:49:21They wanted her to marry some big shot, but she didn't love him.
00:49:24She's never been on her own before, so she had to learn from scratch.
00:49:28Oh, wow.
00:49:30No, I had no idea.
00:49:35It's pretty funny, then, how she met Andy.
00:49:38You know?
00:49:38Like, it's ironic that she ran away from one rich guy straight into the arms of another.
00:49:43Her family would be thrilled if they ever took their heads out of their asses.
00:49:48Wait, Andy is rich?
00:49:51Yeah.
00:49:53Haven't you heard of the Rhodes family?
00:49:57Oh, my God.
00:49:58Rhodes Hotels!
00:49:59I never even put it together!
00:50:00Yeah, he went out on his own a couple years ago.
00:50:02He wanted to make a name for himself, pave his own way aside from his family.
00:50:06And you and Corrine don't know anything about Andy.
00:50:11And you and Andy don't know about Corrine.
00:50:14Holy shit!
00:50:15Andy!
00:50:18Oh.
00:50:22Hey, girl!
00:50:23Okay, tell me everything.
00:50:29Basking in the afterglow?
00:50:32I don't kiss and tell.
00:50:33It was amazing.
00:50:3410 out of 10.
00:50:34But before I give you details, there's something way more urgent I have to tell you.
00:50:38You're never going to guess what I heard last night.
00:50:40But, uh, you got a sec?
00:50:42Uh, yeah, sure.
00:50:43I could take a break.
00:50:45Okay, what?
00:50:46What is more important than your sex life?
00:50:49I heard one of the craziest things from Monica last night.
00:50:51Did you know Corrine comes from one of the wealthiest families in the country?
00:50:55What did you say?
00:50:56Corrine.
00:50:57Andy comes from a rich family.
00:50:59Rhodes Hotels!
00:51:01What?
00:51:01Yeah.
00:51:02Dude, Corrine is, or was, I guess, a Carlton.
00:51:06Why would she hide that?
00:51:07I don't know what to say.
00:51:16You're a Carlton.
00:51:28You're a Carlton.
00:51:30Yes.
00:51:31I'm the Carlton's youngest daughter.
00:51:32Not that they would acknowledge it.
00:51:33You're a Carlton.
00:51:34The same corporation that's been trying to buy me out and bad-mouthing me in the press.
00:51:38Are you the fucking mole?
00:51:39Is that why you showed up in this apartment in the first place?
00:51:42Do you really think that I would do that to you?
00:51:44After everything we've been through?
00:51:45You know me, Andy.
00:51:46You know that I have no loyalty to my family.
00:51:49I don't know what to believe.
00:51:51Why didn't you tell me that you come from a rich family, too?
00:51:53How is that relevant right now?
00:51:55How is that relevant?
00:51:56You're accusing me of lying about my family, yet you did the exact same thing?
00:52:00Well, at least I have an excuse.
00:52:01What's yours?
00:52:02Were you cut off from your family, too?
00:52:03No, no, I wasn't.
00:52:05Okay, well, then why are you here?
00:52:06You don't even need to live a normal life.
00:52:08Were you just pretending for fun?
00:52:10I am not here for fun.
00:52:12I went out on my own to prove myself.
00:52:13Everybody just expected me to join the family business,
00:52:15but I needed to make my own way in the world.
00:52:18Okay, well, then why didn't you just tell me that, okay?
00:52:20Why don't you trust me?
00:52:21I didn't tell you because I thought that you could be a-
00:52:22Could be what?
00:52:24I thought that you could be after my money.
00:52:27I thought that you could be after my money.
00:52:31Okay, look, if that came out-
00:52:32That fucking did!
00:52:34First I'm a traitor, and now I'm a gold digger.
00:52:36You know what?
00:52:36You are just a real class act, Andy.
00:52:37Oh, stop deflecting!
00:52:39You heard that from Mr. Colton while you were snooping around in my office, no less,
00:52:43and you didn't say anything.
00:52:44I have every right to be angry.
00:52:45I chose freedom, and I lost everything because of it.
00:52:51Do you really think that I would turn around and just betray you like that?
00:52:56I open up to you about everything,
00:52:59and you just turn around and throw it in my face.
00:53:01I even told you that my parents prefer my sister over me,
00:53:04and you know how important it is for me to be treated as an equal,
00:53:07and yet you still don't do it.
00:53:08When?
00:53:09When have I not treated you as an equal?
00:53:11Do you suspect you're equal of ulterior motives,
00:53:13so much so that you would accuse her of being the mole?
00:53:17After living with her for weeks-
00:53:19No, it doesn't matter.
00:53:21I saw the door camera footage,
00:53:23and Colton was hanging right here in this apartment.
00:53:24Did you feed him information then?
00:53:32He was just trying to get me to come back.
00:53:34I have seen you lie, Corinne.
00:53:36It comes as easily to you as breathing.
00:53:38Ever since you showed up in this apartment,
00:53:39you have caused me nothing but trouble,
00:53:41and I swear, if you're the reason that my agency is in jeopardy, I'm-
00:53:46That sounds like you already think I'm guilty.
00:53:50So be it.
00:54:00Oh, honey, I'll get the ice cream.
00:54:03Enjoy.
00:54:09Hi, welcome.
00:54:14Corinne.
00:54:17Why did you ask me here, James?
00:54:19Cutting right to the chase.
00:54:21Okay.
00:54:22Well, you see, I haven't quite given up on our future nuptials.
00:54:27Wait.
00:54:27The iguayans want to hear what I have to say.
00:54:30Please.
00:54:30What could you possibly say to convince me to go along with this arrangement?
00:54:34Your boy toys, and he says yes.
00:54:36Andy?
00:54:37I know.
00:54:38He's part of the Rhodes family.
00:54:39Big whoop.
00:54:41Not that, Corinne.
00:54:43He's engaged to this woman, Betty Kandan, 25.
00:54:48She's a childhood sweetheart of his.
00:54:50No, no, no.
00:54:50I met her.
00:54:51She's crazy.
00:54:52They've been engaged to be married since childhood.
00:54:55My source is correct, which, trust me, it is.
00:54:58The wedding is set for May.
00:54:59Well, you're wrong.
00:55:01Who's your source?
00:55:17Okay, you know what?
00:55:17You still haven't said what that has to do with you and I.
00:55:20So just get to the point.
00:55:21The point is, Corinne, I know you love him.
00:55:24But you can't have him.
00:55:26He belongs to Miss Kandan.
00:55:27This past month, all of it, has been vague.
00:55:30A dream.
00:55:31Fuck you.
00:55:31What I can offer you is real.
00:55:34Yeah, what's that?
00:55:35Security at home.
00:55:36Assurance that what you have won't disappear in an instant.
00:55:38You will be taken care of forever.
00:55:41You will never have to worry or doubt ever again.
00:55:43Take some time.
00:55:45Think about it.
00:55:47I'll be with you.
00:55:50Do you remember, Andy, how her Easter dress got so muddy
00:55:54that your parents had to cancel the press shoot?
00:55:57That was such a fun day, despite the looks on their faces.
00:56:01Oh, gosh.
00:56:01You know, you two have made such a couple then and now.
00:56:08Um, excuse me.
00:56:09I need to use the restroom.
00:56:13This place is just so lovely, isn't it?
00:56:16Sorry, I just need to send a quick message.
00:56:19No problem, dear.
00:56:28Hmm?
00:56:30Such a lovely evening, isn't it?
00:56:31Yes.
00:56:35There he is.
00:56:35Oh.
00:56:49Excuse me.
00:56:55Is he taunting me?
00:56:56Is this psychological warfare?
00:56:58You know what, James is right.
00:56:59I really need to get myself out of this mess.
00:57:05Corinne!
00:57:06What a coincidence!
00:57:08I was just having dinner with Andy and his mother.
00:57:11Would you like to join?
00:57:12Are you the one who texted me off of Andy's phone?
00:57:14Oh.
00:57:15Did you really think Andy wanted to talk things over and make up?
00:57:18How sad.
00:57:26Hello there.
00:57:27Didn't expect to hear from you so soon.
00:57:29You're right.
00:57:30Imagine that.
00:57:31What will you do?
00:57:37You know what?
00:57:38I would like to propose a toast to Turntide and all the success that you've had, Andy.
00:57:43I am so proud of you.
00:57:45I'm serious.
00:57:48Thanks, Mom.
00:57:49That means a lot.
00:57:50But I didn't propose this dinner to discuss work.
00:57:53I brought you here because we need to put this matter to bed.
00:57:56What's that?
00:57:57What's the matter?
00:57:58Betty and I's engagement.
00:58:00Listen, Mom.
00:58:00I know you and the Kamdyns have wanted this for my entire life.
00:58:03But just because you're telling people it's going to happen doesn't make it true.
00:58:06I'm a grown man now.
00:58:07I need to make my own decisions.
00:58:09Andy?
00:58:12You know what?
00:58:12I'm tired of this.
00:58:13I have been nothing but patient and understanding for years.
00:58:16And all you do is reject me.
00:58:18I've been waiting for you my whole life.
00:58:20I've been waiting for you my whole life.
00:58:22I've been waiting for you my whole life.
00:58:24What does she have that I don't?
00:58:26Who is she?
00:58:28She is the woman Andy is living with.
00:58:30Andy, it's not true.
00:58:33She's just a roommate.
00:58:34And her name is Corinne.
00:58:36Betty, I can't marry you.
00:58:37And it's not because of her.
00:58:38It wouldn't be right.
00:58:39I'm sorry.
00:58:41Fix it.
00:58:42I'm going to call my parents.
00:58:46Andy, just because you have a startup does not mean that you have life figured out.
00:58:51First you turned down the Carltons.
00:58:53And now the Camdens.
00:58:56What are you doing?
00:58:57Are you trying to run your career to the ground, Andy?
00:59:01Partnerships shouldn't be bought.
00:59:03They should be earned.
00:59:04And I want to marry somebody I love.
00:59:05Not somebody that I see business value in.
00:59:07You have known Betty your entire life.
00:59:09And our family approves of her.
00:59:10And you stand the risk of insulting her family
00:59:14the longer you put off this marriage.
00:59:16Do you understand?
00:59:17If I can't marry somebody that I love,
00:59:19then I'll just walk away from it all.
00:59:20Oh god, how dare you?
00:59:23Do you really think that I had a choice in who I married?
00:59:27Do you want the same for your child?
00:59:30You are young.
00:59:31And I know what's best for you.
00:59:32And this is not over.
00:59:34And you will figure it out.
00:59:46Are you leaving?
00:59:48Yes.
00:59:49You could just keep the rest of my stuff,
00:59:51or throw it away.
00:59:52I don't really care.
00:59:53Wait, is this about the other night?
00:59:55Can you blame me for suspecting you?
00:59:56Do you know what's really ironic?
00:59:58You accused me of being this big mastermind
01:00:00and saying all this bullshit about me.
01:00:02Yet you are the one with the biggest secret of all.
01:00:04What the hell are you talking about?
01:00:06Enjoy married lunch.
01:00:09Oh, what?
01:00:10Cat got your tongue now?
01:00:12You know, I should have known that you were a player
01:00:14from the very beginning.
01:00:15Why are you even mad?
01:00:17We're just roommates.
01:00:19What does it matter to you?
01:00:21Just roommates.
01:00:23You know, that's low even for you, Andy.
01:00:25What?
01:00:26We had moments.
01:00:27The flirting.
01:00:28Oh, we shared a kiss for God's sake.
01:00:29Does none of that mean anything to you?
01:00:30We were drinking.
01:00:32Right.
01:00:33Got it.
01:00:34Where are you going?
01:00:35None of your business.
01:00:36Oh, you're going back to them, aren't you?
01:00:38To James?
01:00:39And I'm supposed to believe you're innocent now?
01:00:41I always was.
01:00:42If that's the case, then you're a coward.
01:00:44What?
01:00:44After all of the progress you've made,
01:00:46the life that you built for yourself
01:00:47through blood, sweat, and tears,
01:00:48you're just going to give it all away?
01:00:50Take the easy way out.
01:00:51You're better than that, Corinne.
01:00:53What does it matter to you?
01:00:55We're just roommates, remember?
01:00:57Well, not anymore!
01:01:07Unless you decide to show up.
01:01:09You look tired.
01:01:11I'm here.
01:01:22Mr. Fincher, Mr. Thompson,
01:01:24it's an honor to have you here today.
01:01:26We will be presenting our pitch
01:01:27for Goldfield Beer as a team.
01:01:30Here at Turntide,
01:01:31we aim to pinpoint the core
01:01:33that makes a product attractive to consumers
01:01:35and then elevate it into the public consciousness.
01:01:37Through meticulous research,
01:01:39we have found that the two words
01:01:40most commonly associated with Goldfield
01:01:43is summer and taste.
01:01:45Now, accompanied with visual and auditory cues.
01:01:55And that brings us to the slogan
01:01:57that will transform Goldfield's presence in the market.
01:02:00Goldfield, the taste of summer.
01:02:06Mr. Rhodes, uh,
01:02:07you've certainly put a lot of effort into this.
01:02:10It's an impeccable presentation,
01:02:12virtually flawless.
01:02:13We can see the quality that comes out of Turntide.
01:02:16That may also be your greatest weakness.
01:02:18On the surface, the ad is perfect,
01:02:20but it doesn't possess anything beyond that.
01:02:22I mean, the taste of summer,
01:02:24come on, what does that even mean?
01:02:25I mean, it's, it's soulless.
01:02:29Basic.
01:02:30We cannot sign off on this.
01:02:35We cannot sign off on this.
01:02:38Well, you know, you'd be surprised.
01:02:39As I mentioned,
01:02:40studies show that people are very receptive
01:02:43to summer themes.
01:02:44They produce neural responses akin to nostalgia.
01:02:46Ads like this are almost guaranteed
01:02:49to bring in higher year-end profits.
01:02:51It's a safe bet.
01:02:52You're well aware of the advantage
01:02:54of this type of marketing, Mr. Rhodes.
01:02:56Other beer brands have been using it for decades.
01:02:58Yeah, and we're not other beer brands.
01:03:00I mean, we didn't take the risk of coming
01:03:02to a new up-and-coming ad agency
01:03:04to get a boring, safe pitch.
01:03:09Well, you know, I can, uh,
01:03:11we've seen enough from you, Mr. Rhodes.
01:03:13Look, I don't want to give an ultimatum,
01:03:15but if you don't give us something impressive,
01:03:17like right now, we're walking.
01:03:20Please, if you give us one more day,
01:03:21we can put together a presentation
01:03:23that is equally impressive.
01:03:24We don't want another presentation.
01:03:26We want a good idea.
01:03:33Miss?
01:03:33Corinne Carlton.
01:03:39What are you doing?
01:03:40I could pitch.
01:03:43I could pitch.
01:03:46Well then, go ahead.
01:03:50I recently had the misfortune
01:03:52of losing almost everything I had.
01:03:53And although it was my choice,
01:03:55it was still really hard.
01:03:57And most people think that when you're struggling,
01:03:59you're focused on the basics,
01:04:01getting a job, finding a safe place to live,
01:04:04affording food and necessities,
01:04:06on surviving.
01:04:08And for the most part, that is, that's true.
01:04:10But in the in-between moments,
01:04:13when everything is just hitting you,
01:04:14you're just looking for comfort,
01:04:16just about everywhere.
01:04:17You're looking for anything and everything
01:04:19that'll give you a sense of belonging
01:04:21that you used to have.
01:04:22And in one of those moments,
01:04:23someone gave me a Goldfield beer.
01:04:25I had a really hard time opening it.
01:04:27You know, me cans.
01:04:34But I couldn't believe how
01:04:36something so simple could mean so much.
01:04:39It was just a beer, but...
01:04:41You know, this may not resonate,
01:04:43but I keep thinking about this quote
01:04:45that Ernest Hemingway wrote.
01:04:46I did not care what it was all about.
01:04:48Life, you know?
01:04:49All I wanted to know was how to live in it.
01:04:52And if I found out how to live in it,
01:04:55then you learned from what it was all about.
01:04:58Goldfield, live in it.
01:05:00The sun also rises.
01:05:02You'd have no way of knowing this, young lady,
01:05:04but our CEO is very fond of Hemingway.
01:05:07If he were here right now,
01:05:08it'd be over the moon.
01:05:10He'll love the idea of our ad referencing a favorite.
01:05:16Well, I can throw together some mock-ups
01:05:18by the end of the week.
01:05:20Excellent.
01:05:21Look forward to seeing that.
01:05:23Miss Carlton, you have a bright future here.
01:05:27That means a lot.
01:05:40Mr. Thompson, Mr. Fincher, please wait.
01:05:43What more is there to discuss?
01:05:45We made ourselves very clear in there.
01:05:48I don't know if you know this,
01:05:49but my father is Neil Martin.
01:05:51Okay, and?
01:05:53He's the largest supplier of wheat on the West Coast.
01:05:55A connection with him
01:05:57might be very beneficial for Goldfield.
01:05:59If you go back in there and tell my boss
01:06:01you're turning down Turntide's pitch
01:06:03and going with the Carlton Group,
01:06:04you'll be in for a treat.
01:06:06I'm not going to go back in there.
01:06:07If you had done any research into our company,
01:06:16Miss Martin,
01:06:17you'd know we produce our own wheat.
01:06:18Goldfield started as a farm.
01:06:20Yeah, and does Mr. Rose know
01:06:22that you're trying to bribe us
01:06:23on behalf of another company?
01:06:27How about, if you do it,
01:06:30I'll give you a night you won't forget.
01:06:32Both of you.
01:06:37Mr. Rose, you need to control your people.
01:06:40Never in my entire career
01:06:41have I experienced something so unprofessional.
01:06:43Is this your corporate culture?
01:06:45Absolutely not.
01:06:47And this is no longer an employee of Turntide.
01:06:49My sincerest apologies to both of you.
01:06:51And we will make up for this violation tenfold.
01:06:54If you can come through
01:06:55like your all-star associate promised,
01:06:58maybe we can forget about this.
01:07:05Mr. Rose, can you hear me?
01:07:07What the fuck were you thinking?
01:07:09I've worked my ass off for this company.
01:07:12I was here when it was nothing.
01:07:14I should have been made a partner ages ago,
01:07:16but you never even considered it.
01:07:17Ed Carlton offered me an executive role
01:07:20just for doing a small favor.
01:07:22So you betrayed us?
01:07:24Put the entire agency in jeopardy.
01:07:26If Corinne hadn't saved us back then-
01:07:27Please!
01:07:28I could have done the same thing.
01:07:30Pack your things.
01:07:31You're fired.
01:07:37I don't know if I bought that.
01:08:07Not one word, not one gesture of yours
01:08:16shall I, could I, ever forget.
01:08:23He read it.
01:08:32Mr. Carlton, figured you would show up at some point.
01:08:35Come to hand over your clients to me?
01:08:37Enjoy them while you have them,
01:08:40because I'm sure they'll come crawling back soon.
01:08:43You know who won the deal for us?
01:08:44Corinne, your daughter.
01:08:46Seems like you lost your biggest asset
01:08:48when you cut her off from the family.
01:08:50Corinne?
01:08:51How?
01:08:52I have a deal for you, Ed.
01:08:54What?
01:08:56I will give you back these clients,
01:08:58but you have to give up something else.
01:09:00And that would be?
01:09:01Corinne, relinquish your control
01:09:03and let her live her own life on her own terms.
01:09:06Stay out of her life for good.
01:09:11Stay out of her life for good.
01:09:13Deal.
01:09:24Betty, we need to talk about the wedding.
01:09:29Hey, Melissa, have you seen Andy?
01:09:31I just really need to talk to him.
01:09:33No, he's not in yet.
01:09:34But did you hear what happened?
01:09:36No, what happened?
01:09:37Andy fired Lilia.
01:09:39Apparently she's the Carlton mole.
01:09:41It got really intense when he sent her hacking.
01:09:45He was epic.
01:09:46He's also super hot.
01:09:49What? How did I miss this?
01:09:51You were still in the meeting room.
01:09:53I was the only witness.
01:09:55Perks of being HR.
01:09:56Okay, do you know where he is?
01:09:58That's the craziest part.
01:09:59He is at the courthouse downtown.
01:10:01What?
01:10:02He's getting married.
01:10:06I'm so sorry.
01:10:20I thought.
01:10:27Corinne.
01:10:30Someone told me that you were at the courthouse.
01:10:33Are you here to heroically stop my arranged marriage?
01:10:36You don't belong with Betty, okay?
01:10:37You just don't.
01:10:38You've worked so hard and you deserve to be with somebody that loves you,
01:10:41like everything about you.
01:10:42Well, maybe Betty does, but you know what?
01:10:43I really don't think so.
01:10:44She's kind of a bitch.
01:10:46Sorry, I'm getting kind of sidetracked.
01:10:48Do not laugh at me, okay?
01:10:50I am trying to give a speech.
01:10:53You, um, you deserve to pick your own path.
01:10:57Whatever that is.
01:10:58And, you know, I've always kind of really admired that about you.
01:11:02Don't go through with it.
01:11:03If I can call off my wedding, then so can you.
01:11:06Are you done?
01:11:08I'm not marrying Betty.
01:11:12I'm not marrying Betty.
01:11:16Hey, Betty.
01:11:18Can we talk about the marriage?
01:11:19Andy, can't you just be happy with me?
01:11:21Our mothers are so intent on the marriage,
01:11:23they've decided to forego the wedding altogether
01:11:25and just get it over with in a courthouse.
01:11:27Isn't that enough for you?
01:11:28You need to stand up to them with me.
01:11:30This whole time you've been perfectly obedient.
01:11:31This will not be over until you say no too.
01:11:34It's not just obedience, Andy.
01:11:36I've loved you since we were kids.
01:11:38You don't love me.
01:11:39You don't even know what love is.
01:11:41I was never going to marry Betty contrary to popular belief.
01:11:44Oh, just like I was never the mole contrary to popular belief.
01:11:49So is this where I get to say I told you so?
01:11:52I may or may not have made some assumptions.
01:11:53Understatement of the year.
01:11:55And reacted without solid evidence.
01:11:59I'm sorry for not trusting you, Corey.
01:12:01Nothing that I said to you was true.
01:12:02You haven't made my life any worse.
01:12:04In fact, you have made it a hell of a lot better.
01:12:08We can call it even.
01:12:13Sure.
01:12:15So what is Mr. Rose going to do now?
01:12:19Well, I actually have a very busy evening moving my roommate in.
01:12:24Oh.
01:12:25It's going to be a workout too.
01:12:26She has a shit ton of books.
01:12:29But I love her anyways.
01:12:31One question.
01:12:32It would have been me at the altar.
01:12:34You'd rather?
01:12:35Well, we'll just have to see.
01:12:37I'm going to need some insurance.
01:12:38Oh, shut up and kiss me.
