00:00:00You almost killed our daughter.
00:00:02Mommy!
00:00:03We've been married for seven years.
00:00:05You know I didn't do this.
00:00:07You drugged me.
00:00:08You have to believe me, I didn't do this.
00:00:10We broke her heart, mocked her, and then sent her straight to jail.
00:00:16It's time for Ethan to find out who I really am.
00:00:19I'm a better woman for him, not you.
00:00:21Mommy!
00:00:22I'm going to take back my daughter.
00:00:24You were my best friend, bitch!
00:00:27I'm going to take back my name.
00:00:30It's time they met the one and only, Carrington Heiress.
00:00:35Who is this secret heiress that gave up this family fortune for seven years?
00:00:42Open your eyes, see exactly who I am.
00:00:44Nicole, you were born a queen.
00:00:47And queens never cry.
00:00:57All right.
00:00:58Please, give me a second, Jack!
00:00:59All right!
00:01:00Mommy?
00:01:01Mommy?
00:01:02Mommy?
00:01:03Mommy?
00:01:04Mommy!
00:01:05Mommy!
00:01:06Mommy!
00:01:07Mommy!
00:01:14Mommy!
00:01:17Mommy!
00:01:18Mommy!
00:01:20Mommy!
00:01:21Mommy!
00:01:24Mommy!
00:01:25Mommy!
00:01:26Drink up, bitch.
00:01:31Oh, Nicole, always the perfect mother.
00:01:35Now you're just a drunk bitch.
00:01:37Sorry, bestie.
00:01:38Your man's about to get the biggest deal of his life.
00:01:41So now I want him.
00:01:44You left his kid to roast in a car.
00:01:47I wonder what Ethan will think.
00:01:49Ethan?
00:01:50Oh, my God.
00:01:51You have to come home right away.
00:01:54Nicole is drunk, and she locked Grace in the car,
00:01:57and I can't find the key anywhere.
00:02:02No.
00:02:17Thanks, Light.
00:02:19If you didn't break the car window in time,
00:02:22Grace could have died.
00:02:23Sorry you got hurt.
00:02:27It doesn't matter as long as Gracie's okay.
00:02:32I still have use of this little brat,
00:02:34but once I become her stepmother,
00:02:37I'll get rid of her.
00:02:39Gracie.
00:02:41Gracie, I'll let go.
00:02:42Hey, Mommy's here. Mommy's here.
00:02:46How dare you have the fucking audacity
00:02:51to show up here, Nicole?
00:02:53You almost killed our daughter.
00:02:56What?
00:02:57You forgot our daughter in this fucking heat
00:03:01while you were passed out on the couch drunk.
00:03:06No.
00:03:07I didn't.
00:03:09We've been married for seven years.
00:03:11You know that I barely drink.
00:03:12I didn't.
00:03:13No, I went to the grocery store with Grace,
00:03:16and then we came home,
00:03:18and Elaine...
00:03:19It was you.
00:03:24You drugged me.
00:03:26That glass of water that you gave me,
00:03:27that's the last thing I remember.
00:03:29Why would you do this?
00:03:30Nicole.
00:03:30I'm your best friend.
00:03:32I just...
00:03:34I just came by to bring you some documents.
00:03:36That's when I saw Nicole on the couch.
00:03:40I'm crazy in the car.
00:03:42I couldn't find the keys anywhere.
00:03:43I just broke the window.
00:03:45What was the deal?
00:03:48You get off of my husband!
00:03:50You're lying.
00:03:51You're a liar.
00:03:53Ethan, you can see that I'm being set up
00:03:55right now, right?
00:03:56You're my husband.
00:04:01Why...
00:04:02Why are you believing her over me?
00:04:04Enough.
00:04:06I can smell the alcohol in your breath.
00:04:09Why would Elaine want to frame you?
00:04:10What does she have to gain from this?
00:04:17See?
00:04:18You have nothing to say.
00:04:20Please, Ethan.
00:04:23I love Gracie with my whole heart.
00:04:25With everything that I have.
00:04:27You know me.
00:04:28I would never do something like that.
00:04:31Gracie, I...
00:04:31I love you, baby.
00:04:36I only believe what I see.
00:04:39I already called the cost, Nicole.
00:04:41I want you to repent in jail.
00:04:43And learn your lesson.
00:04:45What you did
00:04:46is not only a crime,
00:04:49but also unforgivable
00:04:50as a mother.
00:04:52You're sending me to jail right now?
00:04:57Away...
00:04:57Away from you and Gracie.
00:05:00Let's go.
00:05:01No.
00:05:02No, you have to listen to me.
00:05:03You have to believe me.
00:05:04I didn't do this.
00:05:05Gracie, baby!
00:05:06I'm right here!
00:05:07Gracie!
00:05:09Even.
00:05:10No.
00:05:11I gave up everything
00:05:22to be with you, Ethan.
00:05:25Was my dad right?
00:05:28Was this...
00:05:29was us...
00:05:31just a big mistake?
00:05:33It's been a long day.
00:05:37Here.
00:05:37Drink this.
00:05:38It'll help you sleep.
00:05:40I'm gonna check on Gracie
00:05:41and then I'll head home.
00:05:43Thanks, Elaine.
00:05:44I don't know what I'd do without you.
00:05:46Hey, you're my boss.
00:05:47Anything for you.
00:05:48Don't sell yourself short.
00:05:50You know you're more like family.
00:05:59Wait.
00:06:00Wait.
00:06:03No, no, no, no, no.
00:06:07I'm innocent.
00:06:08I swear.
00:06:09Save it for the judge.
00:06:17I stopped talking to my own father
00:06:20because of Ethan.
00:06:22The man who put me behind bars.
00:06:25What should I do?
00:06:31Good afternoon, Mr. Character.
00:06:33Yeah.
00:06:37What?
00:06:39My daughter's in jail?
00:06:41Sarah, get me Damon Hawthorne.
00:06:43He's the best lawyer in L.A.
00:06:44And find out what jail she's in.
00:06:46Now!
00:06:47Mr. Hawthorne, I'm Sarah Sandoval,
00:07:01executive assistant to Max Carrington.
00:07:04It seems Nicole has found her way into prison
00:07:06by way of Mr. Ethan Carter.
00:07:08Had I known your husband was a prick, Nicole,
00:07:10I never would have let you go.
00:07:12Do you think you can help us bring her home?
00:07:13I'm on it.
00:07:22Ethan.
00:07:23Don't touch him.
00:07:24Sit your ass down.
00:07:28Ethan.
00:07:30Will you please just pay my bail?
00:07:32Nicole, let me go home to Gracie, okay?
00:07:36I mean, come on, you've had time to think about this.
00:07:37You know I didn't do this.
00:07:39What I know, Nicole,
00:07:40is that our daughter almost died
00:07:43because you were passed out on the couch drunk.
00:07:48Tell me how else it happened, huh?
00:07:52Elaine.
00:07:53She drugged and she framed me.
00:07:57Stop blaming Elaine.
00:08:01She has been nothing but kind to you all these years.
00:08:04While she and I were slaving away at work,
00:08:07you've been living as this picture-perfect Beverly Hills housewife.
00:08:10You had one job.
00:08:11Take care, Gracie.
00:08:13And you couldn't even do that right.
00:08:14Well, that's really what you think of me?
00:08:22Nicole, I just want to...
00:08:23Why did you bring Elaine here?
00:08:33Nicole, I'm really worried about you.
00:08:37Ethan and I both have.
00:08:40I should have known you were a homewrecker.
00:08:43What?
00:08:44I would never do that.
00:08:47Huh, Nicole.
00:08:48What did I ever do to make you hate me this much?
00:08:52What happened to you, Nicole?
00:08:54You used to be so kind.
00:08:56So gentle.
00:08:58This past year,
00:08:59you've changed.
00:09:03You have no idea what kind of sacrifices I've made for you.
00:09:09It's a character in an enterprise.
00:09:11I have to take this.
00:09:12Carrington Enterprise.
00:09:15That's my family's business.
00:09:17Why are they calling Ethan?
00:09:21I fucked your husband last night.
00:09:25Just thought you should know.
00:09:27And you know what Ethan said?
00:09:31He said I was the best he's ever had.
00:09:34You know, I'm a better woman for him.
00:09:38Not you.
00:09:43You took my husband and my daughter from me!
00:09:47You were my best friend, bitch!
00:09:49Here.
00:09:59Drink this.
00:09:59It'll help you sleep.
00:10:07Wait.
00:10:08Do you think I was too harsh on Nicole to send her to jail?
00:10:16I think we should let the court decide.
00:10:20I love Nicole, but what she did was a crime.
00:10:25Nicole has no money.
00:10:27She can't even afford an attorney.
00:10:31Maybe I should pay her bail and drop the case.
00:10:38I knew this was going to happen.
00:10:42That's why there's always a plan B.
00:10:59Try Paul.
00:11:01I'm a jerk.
00:11:08Gordon's office.
00:11:11Mr. Hawthorne.
00:11:12Yes, sir.
00:11:14What?
00:11:15The Mr. Carrington's daughter is in my jail?
00:11:20Fuck.
00:11:22Ow!
00:11:23Ow!
00:11:24Ow!
00:11:25Nicole, stop it!
00:11:27Ethan, don't.
00:11:37Let the guards deal with her.
00:11:39Nicole, have you lost your damn mind?
00:11:43Yeah.
00:11:44Yeah, I lost my mind.
00:11:47I married you.
00:11:50Biggest mistake of my life.
00:11:52That's it.
00:11:52I'm taking you to solitary confinement right now.
00:11:55Up!
00:11:56On your feet!
00:11:56Get your fucking hands off her!
00:12:06Nicole.
00:12:08Sorry I'm late.
00:12:10Damon?
00:12:11Let's get you up.
00:12:14Uncuff my client now.
00:12:16Uncuff my client now.
00:12:22What are you waiting for?
00:12:24Did you not just hear what Mr. Hawthorne said?
00:12:28I'm sorry, boss.
00:12:29I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:12:30Sorry?
00:12:32Why are you uncuffing her?
00:12:33She's a criminal.
00:12:35And who is this rando?
00:12:37You're just letting him waltz in here and you're listening to him?
00:12:40Don't talk to me like that.
00:12:42This is my fucking turf, okay?
00:12:44And don't call Mr. Hawthorne a rando.
00:12:46Show some respect.
00:12:48One more strike and you two will get the fuck out of my jail.
00:12:52What is happening?
00:12:54Who is this guy?
00:12:56What?
00:12:56Showing your true colors, Elaine?
00:13:00No, I just...
00:13:02I want to make sure everyone's following procedure.
00:13:05Or else it would hurt you more otherwise.
00:13:07Drop the act.
00:13:09Aren't you tired of pretending yet?
00:13:11Oh, step away from my client.
00:13:15She's my wife!
00:13:17You lost that privilege the moment you called the cops on her.
00:13:20Now you're the plaintiff and she's the defendant.
00:13:23And I said,
00:13:24step the fuck away from my client.
00:13:30Nicole, can I please talk to you in private, please?
00:13:34You know what?
00:13:36I'm exercising attorney-client privilege.
00:13:38The only person speaking to Nicole privately is me.
00:13:48What are you doing here, Damon?
00:13:52How'd you even find out I was in jail?
00:13:54Your father called me.
00:13:55I thought he hated me.
00:14:04I broke his heart.
00:14:06Damon, I shouldn't have done that.
00:14:08I regret that.
00:14:08Nicole, you are his daughter.
00:14:11He could never not love you.
00:14:13He's waiting for you.
00:14:15He asked me to bring you home.
00:14:18Please don't cry.
00:14:22I can't stand to see you cry.
00:14:28I don't know how I'm going to face him again.
00:14:30Damon, I can't.
00:14:31I can't.
00:14:32You can.
00:14:33No, I can't.
00:14:34You can and you will.

00:30:31so
00:30:32Ms. Carrington, the guests are arriving soon.
00:30:36You may head down whenever you're ready.
00:30:39Okay. Let's go.
00:30:43I can't believe this. This party is so luxurious.
00:30:47Of course. Mr. Carrington is the richest man in the country.
00:30:50And he held this grand party to welcome back his sole heiress,
00:30:53who's been away for seven years.
00:30:55You know, I heard Mr. Carrington is announcing her as the new CEO tonight,
00:31:00and she's going to be the one signing the contract with us.
00:31:04Really, Elaine? So your $10 billion business deal, that's settled.
00:31:09That's right. You know, and I heard it from Mr. Rook himself,
00:31:13the chief investing director of the Carrington family.
00:31:16I wonder where this heiress is.
00:31:18Be patient, Ethan.
00:31:20You know, I'm sure Mr. Carrington is preparing a grand entrance for her.
00:31:25But you know, I'm curious, too.
00:31:28Who is this secret heiress that gave up this family fortune for seven years?
00:31:35Seven years.
00:31:36That was how long Nicole and I were married.
00:31:38Well, no matter what, we should toast to your success
00:31:42and that $10 billion contract.
00:31:45Look! It must be the heiress.
00:31:48How could it be her?
00:32:09How the hell did you sneak in here, Nicole?
00:32:23Sneak in?
00:32:25I was escorted in.
00:32:27With respect.
00:32:29You're just here to get Ethan back since he's closing a $10 billion deal.
00:32:34Wow.
00:32:35You even bought this fake designer dress.
00:32:38Please, you're just gonna embarrass yourself and Ethan.
00:32:42You really think I want Ethan back?
00:32:47Take a look around this room.
00:32:48Every person in there makes Ethan look like nothing.
00:32:54Like this rug.
00:32:55Looks expensive, but it's actually just there to be walked on.
00:32:59Go back to your pathetic housewife life, Nicole.
00:33:02This is my first time breaking into real high society.
00:33:08Nicole, if you're here to talk about getting back together,
00:33:12at least wait until I sign the contract with the heiress.
00:33:16Oh, Ethan.
00:33:18You still don't get it.
00:33:20If I leave, this entire event would be over.
00:33:25Oh, sweetheart.
00:33:27Mr. Rook invited us personally to close the $10 billion deal.
00:33:32So just leave now before you embarrass yourself.
00:33:35Or we have to have security kick you out.
00:33:37Oh, no.
00:33:39Uh, you mean Owen Rooks?
00:33:41Chief Investment Officer at the Carrington Group?
00:33:43Wow, you even did your homework just to get Ethan back.
00:33:46Even though the name of the Carrington's Chief Investment Director.
00:33:48Mm-hmm.
00:33:49Mm-hmm.
00:33:56Hi.
00:33:57Have Owen Rooks meet me here immediately.
00:34:00If he's not here in one minute, fire him.
00:34:03Understood.
00:34:04Damon Hawthorne?
00:34:05The famous lawyer and lover of Ethan's ex-wife?
00:34:06What is he doing here?
00:34:07Mr. Hawthorne?
00:34:08I've been looking for you.
00:34:09I hear the heiress, Ms. Carrington, is taking over as CEO at the party.
00:34:10I was hoping you could introduce us beforehand.
00:34:11Oh, wait.
00:34:12I'm sorry.
00:34:13I'm sorry.
00:34:14I'm sorry.
00:34:15I'm sorry.
00:34:16I'm sorry.
00:34:17I'm sorry.
00:34:18I'm sorry.
00:34:19I'm sorry.
00:34:20I'm sorry.
00:34:21I'm sorry.
00:34:22I'm sorry.
00:34:23I'm sorry.
00:34:24I'm sorry.
00:34:25I'm sorry.
00:34:26I'm sorry.
00:34:27I'm sorry.
00:34:28I'm sorry.
00:34:29I'm sorry.
00:34:30I'm sorry.
00:34:31You can introduce us beforehand.
00:34:32Oh, what a coincidence, Owen.
00:34:34I actually just called the phone with Ms. Carrington.
00:34:36She wants to see you down in the main hall.
00:34:38And let's see here.
00:34:40You've got 40 seconds before you're fired.
00:34:43I'm on my way.
00:34:45Yeah.
00:34:48Mr. Rook is about to be promoted by the Carringtons.
00:34:52One deal with him could turn someone into a millionaire overnight.
00:34:56Who are you to fire him?
00:34:59One word is all it takes.
00:35:20How dare you sit there?
00:35:22That is reserved for the heiress of the Carrington family.
00:35:25Yes.
00:35:26Move.
00:35:27Move!
00:35:28Out of my way!
00:35:31Listen.
00:35:32No need to panic, Owen.
00:35:34You don't know a damn thing.
00:35:36Ms. Carrington is the sole heir to this empire.
00:35:38The word is law.
00:35:42Get up.
00:35:43You can't sit there.
00:35:45What the hell do you think you're doing?
00:35:49Ms. Carrington?
00:35:50Ms. Carrington, you're right.
00:35:53Don't let her fool you, Owen.
00:35:55She is just a troublemaker.
00:35:57And you won't believe this.
00:35:59She said that she could fire you.
00:36:02Seriously?
00:36:04Look what you did, Nicole.
00:36:06You're gonna pay for your stupid lies.
00:36:08Oh, I can guarantee it, Owen.
00:36:11She just got in here with the help of Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:14She's his mistress.
00:36:15And she's trying to fool you.
00:36:17We're telling the truth.
00:36:18I swear it, Mr. Rook.
00:36:22Even Ms. Carrington's most trusted staff wouldn't say something like that.
00:36:25Who exactly are you to the Carrington family?
00:36:28She's a nobody.
00:36:29A worthless piece of trash.
00:36:31She was dumped by her husband.
00:36:33And in jail up until last week.
00:36:35She hurt her own daughter and ended up behind bars.
00:36:38And the only reason that she got out is because she's sleeping with Mr. Hawthorne.
00:36:47Ethan!
00:36:48She's making all this mess to get back at you.
00:36:51She wants to ruin your $10 billion deal.
00:36:55Nicole, I never thought you'd pull a despicable scheme like this.
00:36:59Why hasn't security thrown this tramp out yet?
00:37:02Get out of that throne now.
00:37:04That is reserved for Ms. Carrington.
00:37:06Owen.
00:37:09Are you really that stupid?
00:37:11Did she just insult Owen Rook?
00:37:18What are you all waiting for?
00:37:20Someone take care of this bitch now.
00:37:22We can't have Ms. Carrington see this.
00:37:24You idiots, kick her out now.
00:37:26Crawl back into the sewer where you belong, you disgusting fucking rat.
00:37:32Whew!
00:37:33Okay.
00:37:34Owen Rook.
00:37:35Chief investment director and you can't even think for yourself.
00:37:40Pathetic.
00:37:41Do you have any idea how important I am to the Carrington Group?
00:37:44I was the head of this billion dollar contract before you!
00:37:47Who the hell are you?!
00:37:49Yeah.
00:37:50Head of investments at the Carrington Group.
00:37:53And you're making what?
00:37:55You said billion dollar deals with a company that lacks integrity.
00:38:02Are you serious?
00:38:03How dare you touch our contract with your dirty hands!
00:38:06Put it down!
00:38:14Throw her out now!
00:38:16She just threw garbage at me and you two idiots stood there!
00:38:27Get her out of here!
00:38:28Open your eyes, Owen.
00:38:30See exactly who I am.
00:38:34Now, am I going to have to fire you or are you going to resign?
00:38:37You crazy bitch!
00:38:38Have you lost your damn mind when you were in that prison?
00:38:43You think tearing up some paper is going to cancel a ten billion dollar deal?
00:38:48Pulling a stunt like this at such a classy event?
00:38:52How dare you?
00:38:53And insulting the very man who invited us here?
00:38:56You ought to be ashamed.
00:38:58Wrong!
00:38:59This entire event had nothing to do with this idiot.
00:39:03You're all here because I allowed it.
00:39:05Oh, really?
00:39:06If you're so powerful, then how did you end up in prison?
00:39:11Cool.
00:39:12Have you really lost your goddamn mind because I sent you to jail?
00:39:16You called me an idiot?
00:39:18Fine!
00:39:19I'll teach you a lesson myself.
00:39:25I'd like to see you try.
00:39:29Mr. Hawthorne, you got here just in time.
00:39:32This lunatic crashed the event and tore up our contract.
00:39:37Please, you need to make sure she gets arrested.
00:39:42See how angry Mr. Hawthorne is?
00:39:45You're done, you arrogant little!
00:39:48Watch your mouth, Owen!
00:39:52Mr. Rock, my mother and I just told you that woman is Mr. Hawthorne's mistress.
00:39:58And that is why he's siding with her.
00:40:01Mr. Hawthorne, you can't keep defending this woman.
00:40:05I know you're the most powerful attorney in the country, but you still work for the Carringtons.
00:40:09She ruined the gala and tore up our $10 billion contract.
00:40:14We all saw it.
00:40:16Stop protecting this bitch or Miss Carrington will not forgive you when she arrives.
00:40:22That's right. She should be crippled and thrown out.
00:40:26So every lowlife maggot like her will learn their place.
00:40:29I see. This whole event, it's a mess. Somebody's gotta take the blame for it.
00:40:36Oh, great.
00:40:41Nicole, still keeping up the act.
00:40:47You know, after Ethan divorced you, you should have crawled into a gutter with your daughter and die.
00:40:54But no, instead you come here and you make a fool out of yourself.
00:40:59You heard Mr. Hawthorne. Break her legs and toss her out of here.
00:41:06Mr. Hawthorne.
00:41:12Oh, Elaine.
00:41:15Why are you looking at him?
00:41:18These bodyguards don't take orders from him.
00:41:21Mr. Hawthorne. What the hell is going on?
00:41:37Owen, are you blind or just stupid?
00:41:41Every single security officer here takes orders from one person and one person only.
00:41:47The rightful heiress to the Carrington Group.
00:41:53That is impossible.
00:41:57Is she really Ms. Carrington?
00:42:00The rightful heiress to the Carrington Group.
00:42:04What?
00:42:06Is she really Ms. Carrington?
00:42:08Ah, Owen. Your brain's finally working, huh?
00:42:12Unfortunately, though, it is too late.
00:42:14Owen Rook, you're fired.
00:42:20No. No, you can't.
00:42:21Of course she can.
00:42:23Besides, did you really think that you could get away with taking bribes as the chief financial director?
00:42:29This Kate Lopez alone paid you nearly $50 million, didn't she?
00:42:36We have all the proof.
00:42:38Financial records, offshore transfers.
00:42:41You're not just fired.
00:42:43You'll also be facing fraud charges.
00:42:46I hope you like prisons.
00:42:48You'll be staying there a very long time.
00:42:51Wait.
00:42:52What about our $10 billion deal?
00:42:54What do you think?
00:42:56Of course it's void.
00:42:58I told you, Ethan.
00:43:01Everything that you have, I gave it to you.
00:43:07No.
00:43:08This isn't happening.
00:43:09You are not Ms. Carrington.
00:43:11Your last name might be Carrington, but she's my ex-wife.
00:43:14We were married for seven years.
00:43:17She was just locked in jail just last week.
00:43:20And now, she's the heiress of the richest family in the country?
00:43:25This is all a scam!
00:43:28You are not fooling us with this nonsense.
00:43:31She is nothing but a fraud, fresh out of prison.
00:43:35And she's trying to sleep her way to the top, you fucking little slut.
00:43:40There is no way you are Ms. Carrington.
00:43:43But the security team did say they only answer to the Carrington heiress.
00:43:48That's because my dear ex-wife here cheated on me and spread her legs to Mr. Hawthorne.
00:43:55They have been working together to ruin my deal with the Carringtons.
00:44:00Oh.
00:44:01So that's what this is about.
00:44:03What now, Nicole?
00:44:05Just admit that you did all of this to get me back.
00:44:10And I might forgive you.
00:44:18You filthy bastard.
00:44:31Mr. Carrington.
00:44:33How dare you insult my daughter?
00:44:38How dare you insult my daughter?
00:44:41I didn't, sir.
00:44:42My daughter, Nicole Carrington, sacrificed her entire family fortune to support your businesses.
00:44:48To protect your fragile ego.
00:44:52She gave you your sweet daughter, Grace.
00:44:55How did you repay her?
00:44:59You sided with a lying viper.
00:45:03You sent her to prison.
00:45:05And insulted her at her own family banquet.
00:45:08I was gonna give you that $10 million contract because my daughter loved you.
00:45:22But now, you get nothing!
00:45:25Oh, my God.
00:45:26So, she is Ms. Carrington.
00:45:28The billionaire heiress.
00:45:29It's all ruined.
00:45:30I've humiliated the heiress to the country's wealthiest family.
00:45:31I'm finished.
00:45:32You get nothing!
00:45:34Dad.
00:45:35Dad.
00:45:36Dad.
00:45:37Dad.
00:45:38Hey, you should go rest.
00:45:39Okay?
00:45:40I got this.
00:45:41How can this be?
00:45:42My dear child, you have been wronged.
00:45:47Ladies and gentlemen, I announced that my daughter, Nicole Carrington, is the sole heiress of the billions of dollars in the Carrington fortune and is the new CEO of the Carrington Group.
00:46:02Now, please, everyone, raise your glasses and help us celebrate this moment.
00:46:28To Ms. Carrington!
00:46:30Owen and those people are really too shameless.
00:46:44Shameless?
00:46:45I can't believe they'd humiliate the heiress like that.
00:46:48They're done in California.
00:46:50No.
00:46:51In this country.
00:47:00Oh!
00:47:01Off of me!
00:47:02Off it.
00:47:03Off of me.
00:47:04No!
00:47:05I won't leave like this!
00:47:07I want my ten billion dollars-
00:47:09Stop it, you crazy bitch!
00:47:11I will never work for Carrington Corp again!
00:47:14I want my fifty billion dollars back now!
00:47:17No way!
00:47:18This is all your fault!
00:47:19If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have lost my job!
00:47:21You're fucking crazy!
00:47:23I wish I'd never met you!
00:47:24How could Nicole be the heiress to the Carrington Group?
00:47:32You just dumped her!
00:47:34She is a filthy little sewer rat!
00:47:37Don't touch me.
00:47:38Leave me alone.
00:47:39Ethan!
00:47:40Where are you going?
00:47:41What about the ten billion dollar contract?
00:47:44No!
00:47:45Ethan!
00:47:46Where are you going?
00:47:47What about the ten billion dollar contract?
00:47:50No!
00:47:59Let you leech onto me for seven years!
00:48:03Who are you to leave me?
00:48:05And who are you to take my daughter away from me?
00:48:08Who is this secret heiress?
00:48:10I'm sure Mr. Carrington is preparing a grand entrance for her.
00:48:15Who is this secret heiress that willingly gave up this family fortune for seven years?
00:48:21Why would she do that?
00:48:23Congrats, Mr. Carter.
00:48:24You just lost the one person who will ever love you.
00:48:29Ladies and gentlemen, I want to announce that my daughter, Nicole Carrington, is the sole heiress
00:48:35of the billions of dollars in the Carrington fortune, and as the CEO of the Carrington Group.
00:48:41My ex-wife is the heiress to the richest family in the country.
00:48:49Wait!
00:48:51There's still a time.
00:48:53We have Grace, our daughter.
00:48:56I can't believe Ms. Carrington is coming to inspect the office today.
00:49:02I mean, we were called in two hours early just to greet her.
00:49:06Can you imagine?
00:49:07If we play our cards right with someone like her, we can get promoted faster.
00:49:12Wait a minute.
00:49:14Is that Ethan's ex-wife?
00:49:17I heard she became some rich guy's mistress.
00:49:19Oh, you're a doordasher now.
00:49:23Guess spreading your legs only got you this far.
00:49:26Oh.
00:49:27Here.
00:49:28Hand these to me first, and go get some more.
00:49:30Come on.
00:49:33Are you deaf?
00:49:34Take it in, hurry up.
00:49:35We're waiting for Ms. Carrington.
00:49:36Bitch, don't ruin this for us.
00:49:42Well, we've got a meeting.
00:49:44What the hell are you doing?
00:49:46Stop it right there.
00:49:49Check out the suit.
00:49:51Taylor made.
00:49:52Cost me $10,000.
00:49:55Do you think Nicole would like it?
00:49:57What are you talking about?
00:49:59Did you forget that she acquired your company?
00:50:01Why are you so happy?
00:50:04Apologies for being late, everybody.
00:50:08What in the hell are you doing here?
00:50:11We're sorry, Ethan.
00:50:12We tried to stop this bitch.
00:50:13Yeah, we did not mean until I heard this interview meeting with Ms. Carrington.
00:50:16Ethan, deal with this.
00:50:17How can you let your convict ex-wife in our meeting room?
00:50:21To avoid any further misunderstandings, please listen up, for I really, really hate repeating myself.
00:50:29I am Nicole Carrington, Carrington Group's newly appointed CEO, and I've acquired 51% of the Carter Group's shares, so starting today, I am your boss. Got it?
00:50:38Fuck.
00:50:39Ethan!
00:50:40I need to go talk to Nicole.
00:50:41What do you want, Elaine?
00:50:42Why do you think Nicole bought your company?
00:50:43She's trying to get revenge on us.
00:50:44Revenge?
00:50:45I know Nicole.
00:50:46She wouldn't do that.
00:50:47Are you insane?
00:50:48You think for a second that she would forgive you after everything that we did to her?
00:50:49Hurting Grace and humiliating her?
00:50:50Or did you just forget all that?
00:50:51Nicole has a kind heart.
00:50:52Grace almost drowned at the birthday party.
00:50:53That was our fault.
00:50:54I'll apologize to Nicole.
00:50:55Nicole, what do you want, Elaine?
00:50:56What do you want, Elaine?
00:50:57Why do you think Nicole bought your company?
00:50:58She's trying to get revenge on us.
00:50:59Revenge?
00:51:00I know Nicole.
00:51:01She wouldn't do that.
00:51:02Are you insane?
00:51:03You think for a second that she would forgive you after everything that we did to her?
00:51:06Hurting Grace and humiliating her?
00:51:09Or did you just forget all that?
00:51:11Nicole has a kind heart.
00:51:13Grace almost drowned at the birthday party.
00:51:15That was our fault.
00:51:16I'll apologize to Nicole and she'll forgive me.
00:51:19I know.
00:51:20Ethan, are you naive or just stupid?
00:51:25You broke her heart, mocked her, and then sent her straight to jail when I was framing her for drinking and hurting Grace.
00:51:33Wait.
00:51:34What do you mean, framed her?
00:51:39It was you.
00:51:41You framed her!
00:51:43Nicole never drank!
00:51:44You were the one that locked my daughter in the car and almost killed her!
00:51:47It was you who got me the billion dollar deal!
00:51:50It was you all along!
00:51:51Please, just let me go.
00:51:56You know, why are you caring so much about this now?
00:52:01You knew that she never drank.
00:52:04She defended herself and that did not stop you from sending her straight to jail, did it?
00:52:10And now, all of a sudden, you want to play the role of the caring husband?
00:52:14Nicole wouldn't have divorced me if it was a misunderstanding.
00:52:19What did you do?
00:52:21So bad I may have done something.
00:52:23I just showed her a photo of you of me kissing.
00:52:26What are you talking about?
00:52:28I never did anything with you.
00:52:35How'd you get this photo?
00:52:40Well, I could tell you were still hung up on that bitch, so I drugged you.
00:52:44I've always trusted you.
00:52:51You were Nicole's best friend.
00:52:53Why do this to me?
00:52:55To us?
00:52:57You ruined my family!
00:52:58Because I am so much better than her!
00:53:01And I knew you were about to sign that big contract, so of course I wanted a piece of that.
00:53:06You know, Nicole has everything!
00:53:11She has the money!
00:53:13And the family!
00:53:15And I was just an assistant!
00:53:19You are out of your mind, Elaine!
00:53:22Security!
00:53:23Get this crazy woman out of here!
00:53:25I never want to see you again.
00:53:27Get him!
00:53:30Hands off!
00:53:34Ridiculous!
00:53:38So what are you thinking for lunch today?
00:53:40I don't know, I actually haven't really thought about it yet.
00:53:41Nicole!
00:53:43I know the truth now.
00:53:44It was Elaine.
00:53:45She tricked me.
00:53:47She... she fooled us all.
00:53:49Wow!
00:53:50Alright, you caught on!
00:53:51Congratulations!
00:53:53Nicole, please.
00:53:54I need to talk to you about something.
00:53:56Mr. Carter, I'm her lawyer.
00:53:58You can talk to me.
00:54:04I'll talk to her whenever I like to.
00:54:07She's my wife.
00:54:09No.
00:54:10You guys got divorced, remember?
00:54:11She's still the mother of my daughter, Grace.
00:54:14Which we need to talk about, by the way.
00:54:16Nicole, I'll resolve this matter with Mr. Carter.
00:54:18Nicole, he doesn't have a say.
00:54:20I am more than qualified to handle this.
00:54:22Okay.
00:54:24What are these two doing?
00:54:27Nicole!
00:54:31Too slow, Damon.
00:54:33Uh, it's cash only. Sorry.
00:54:35Okay, don't mind them.
00:54:37Here you go.
00:54:38Thanks.
00:54:40Nicole, can I please have a moment with you?
00:54:43For Grace.
00:54:48Damon, could you wait outside?
00:54:49Okay.
00:54:50I'll be right out there.
00:54:57Okay.
00:54:58Ethan, what about Grace did you want to talk about?
00:55:02Why did you hide your identity from me all these years?
00:55:06Okay, what does this have to do with our daughter?
00:55:07Everything!
00:55:08If you didn't hide your identity, I wouldn't have misunderstood you.
00:55:11And Grace, she would live in a complete loving home.
00:55:13No, no.
00:55:14No, no.
00:55:15What tore us apart was not my identity.
00:55:18It was your betrayal and shamelessness.
00:55:21You get that, right?
00:55:23I didn't betray you.
00:55:24It was that redhead bitch Elaine.
00:55:26She tricked me.
00:55:27Nothing, you know, happened between us.
00:55:29You're the only woman I've ever loved.
00:55:32Please, give me a chance to prove it to you.
00:55:35Okay, since we're not talking about our daughter, I'm leaving.
00:55:39I made a mistake.
00:55:41I hurt you.
00:55:42I broke your heart.
00:55:43I called you a parasite.
00:55:44But I now know how much you sacrifice for our family.
00:55:49Mmm, do you?
00:55:51I love you.
00:55:52And I mean it.
00:55:58One more chance.
00:56:00Grace is only five.
00:56:02And I'm sure you wanted to grow up with a father, right?
00:56:09You're back at my feet because, because you truly believe what you did was wrong.
00:56:16Not because of my family name, all that money, fortune.
00:56:23Of course.
00:56:24I never wanted us to end, Nicole.
00:56:28I don't even care about money.
00:56:30I can even transfer all my accounts and shares to you if that's what it's going to take to prove my love to you.
00:56:39You know, it's really tough to believe a word that you say.
00:56:43When I was framed, when I was beaten in that prison, when you threw me away.
00:56:52I didn't see any love in you then.
00:56:57I made a mistake.
00:56:59Hmm.
00:57:00But I can right my wrongs with love.
00:57:04Please.
00:57:13Nicole!
00:57:14Cold, right?
00:57:15How's that feel?
00:57:16Does it hurt?
00:57:18You may be able to get rid of the stain.
00:57:20Ethan, but are you ever going to actually forget that feeling?
00:57:23That humiliation?
00:57:24No.
00:57:25Right?
00:57:27Cool.
00:57:28I will make you come back to me.
00:57:30Mark my words.
00:57:35If I want something, I'll get it.
00:57:37As long as we have a tie, you'll come back to my side.
00:57:40Oh.
00:57:47What do you two want?
00:57:48Hmm?
00:57:49Sorry I didn't bring any coffee for you today.
00:57:51Oh, you've misunderstood, Miss Carrington.
00:57:53We're just delivering a message for Ethan.
00:57:55He would like to see you in the conference room.
00:57:58Okay.
00:57:59You're here.
00:58:12What is going on?
00:58:13Don't try to be mysterious.
00:58:14I do not have time for this right now, okay?
00:58:16Don't worry.
00:58:17This is a workplace.
00:58:20I'm not going to do anything bad.
00:58:29Nicole, I know you didn't trust me when I said I'm willing to give up all my money just to win you back.
00:58:44So here it is.
00:58:45Every cent I have for you.
00:58:49Wow.
00:58:59I made a mistake.
00:59:03I hurt you.
00:59:04Mm-hmm.
00:59:06I abandoned you.
00:59:10All my cards are here on the table.
00:59:13All I ask is to have another chance to win you back.
00:59:19All your money.
00:59:21That is all of your cards on the table?
00:59:25Please, Nicole.
00:59:26I know you don't understand.
00:59:30I was sick of being poor.
00:59:33Being a nobody.
00:59:35So money was important to me.
00:59:39For you, I'm willing to give it all up.
00:59:44Can we start over?
00:59:46Think about what we've been through.
00:59:49Think about Grace.
00:59:51I think we both know that this is not near enough money
00:59:55to make me forgive you.
00:59:57Looks like you are trying to, trying to start a fire.
01:00:02So you feel it too, huh?
01:00:05The passion?
01:00:07Feel it, definitely.
01:00:09Um, what do you say we, um, make the spark exciting?
01:00:15Isn't that a little too much?
01:00:17No.
01:00:19Come on.
01:00:21We used to do this all the time, didn't we?
01:00:25We used to be young and wild and fun.
01:00:30And hot.
01:00:31Yeah, hot.
01:00:33Yeah.
01:00:35You want my forgiveness?
01:00:37Mm-hmm.
01:00:39Earn it.
01:00:41I'll do whatever you want, baby.
01:00:44All right.
01:00:45Oh, yeah.
01:00:47Oh, you already know.
01:00:48My brother relaxed.
01:00:50Oh, yeah.
01:00:52This is what I'm talking.
01:00:54Oh, wow.
01:00:56You take charge, yeah?
01:00:58Yeah, yeah.
01:00:59Damon's could suck it, huh?
01:01:00Mm-hmm.
01:01:01Oh, honey.
01:01:04Nicole!
01:01:16Fuck!
01:01:18Nicole!
01:01:20I thought we had a meeting right now.
01:01:22Yeah, yeah, we do.
01:01:23You guys can go ahead and head in.
01:01:24I just...
01:01:25gotta grab something.
01:01:31Ah!
01:01:35Fuck!
01:01:37Fuck!
01:01:47Fuck!
01:01:49What are you looking at?
01:01:51Everybody out!
01:01:52Get out!
01:01:54Wait.
01:01:55Wait, wait, wait.
01:01:56Fuck!
01:01:57I need the key.
01:01:58I need the fucking key.
01:02:00Damon!
01:02:01Damon. I need the key! Damon! I need the key!
01:02:18He didn't try anything, did he?
01:02:20No. God, no. I'm always on my guard around him.
01:02:24Mr. Attorney, my ex-husband just harassed me in my workplace.
01:02:28Would you mind calling the police, filing a report for me?
01:02:31I am on it, Ms. CEO.
01:02:33Thank you!
01:02:40Fuck! Ethan Carter, you're under arrest for workplace sexual harassment.
01:02:46What? You're coming with us?
01:02:49I've never sexually insulted anybody, officer. This is a mistake!
01:02:53You saved it for the jury.
01:02:55Take the money, take the money. There's money on the table.
01:02:57I don't have money for enough of all three of us.
01:02:59Listen, I have money. Lots of money.
01:03:02Come on.
01:03:04I thought you forgave me, Nicole.
01:03:06No, I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine.
01:03:09Betrayed and sent to prison by the person you once loved most.
01:03:13How's it feel?
01:03:14I can't go to prison. People will make fun of Grace if I go to prison.
01:03:18They'll say both of her parents are cons!
01:03:19Grace is strong and brave, unlike you.
01:03:24A selfish coward.
01:03:27Hey, don't move.
01:03:31I'll protect Grace. Don't you worry.
01:03:33Please. Let's go.
01:03:35I'm in a good mood. I'm in the best mood, actually.
01:03:48You know what? It's been cited.
01:03:51You have to stick with me until it hits the spot.
01:03:55I will be here until the end.
01:03:58Deal.
01:03:59Am I just the biggest idiot?
01:04:04You know, I left my dad.
01:04:07My only family.
01:04:09For seven years.
01:04:11For what?
01:04:13For some selfish bastard who sent me to prison.
01:04:18To prison. He did that.
01:04:21You know, he didn't even bat an eye. He didn't care.
01:04:24I don't know how I'm supposed to face my dad again.
01:04:27I'm stupid.
01:04:28Nicole, you're back now.
01:04:33That's all that matters.
01:04:37I'm really glad that you're still my friend after all these years.
01:04:41Of course.
01:04:45So, enough about that.
01:04:48What's new with you?
01:04:50Got anybody special in your life?
01:04:52No.
01:04:54I'm single.
01:04:55Uh, the girl I loved left and married some asshole seven years ago.
01:05:01Seven years?
01:05:03Yep.
01:05:04What? Come on! But you're such a good looking guy. How could you do that?
01:05:08Oh, man. I guess we've both been going through it, huh?
01:05:11Oh, it's not so bad. I mean, she's back now.
01:05:16I think I might have a shot.
01:05:20Wait.
01:05:22Could it be?
01:05:24Oh, I think I'm a little drunk.
01:05:29Oh, careful.
01:05:33I think you've had too much.
01:05:37Yeah.
01:05:38Yeah.
01:05:42Yeah, I am.
01:05:44I think I'm a little drunk.
01:05:46Um, I should probably head home, but it's just, it's far, you know?
01:05:51Oh. No, you just sleep in my bed. I'll take the couch. It's fine, really.
01:05:55Oh. Okay.

01:10:46Miss Carrington, you're still home?
01:10:48Today's the parent-teacher event at Grace's school.
01:10:51What?
01:10:52No, Grace never told me anything about that.
01:10:54Her teachers didn't either.
01:10:55We need to hurry.
01:10:55Okay.
01:10:59You can't join the family show.
01:11:01You don't even have a dad.

01:11:13That's right.
01:11:15Hey, what are you two twerps saying to my daughter?
01:11:18Daddy.
01:11:21Apologize to her now.
01:11:23Sorry.
01:11:24Sorry I was mean.
01:11:31Thank you, Uncle Damon.
01:11:32Did you rehearse for the show at home?
01:11:34Of course.
01:11:36I take princesses' orders very seriously.
01:11:38All right.
01:11:47You guys ready?
01:11:48One, two, three.
01:11:51Oh, I'm coming home.
01:11:55Oh, I'm coming home to you.
01:12:02Oh, I'm coming home.
01:12:07I'm coming home.
01:12:10Oh, well, if Mommy's here, why don't we make it a family photo?
01:12:40Oh, we're not a...
01:12:42Mommy, hurry up!
01:12:44Okay.
01:12:47Hey.
01:12:48Say cheese.
01:12:50Cheese.
01:12:55Mommy, you go first.
01:12:56I have to talk to Uncle Damon about something.
01:13:00What?
01:13:01No, when did you guys get so close?
01:13:03That's a secret between Uncle Damon and me.
01:13:05Yeah, I'll send her inside as soon as we're done.
01:13:08Just don't worry.
01:13:09Now go.
01:13:10Oh, I'm going.
01:13:18Uncle Damon, you want to go on a date with my Mommy, right?
01:13:23I know you love my Mommy.
01:13:24I want to help you out.
01:13:26I don't just want to go on a date with your Mommy.
01:13:30If it's okay with you, may I have the honor of being your dad, Grace?
01:13:38Uncle Damon, I really, really want you to be my dad.
01:13:42Mommy's birthday is this weekend, and I know this is her birthday wish, too.
01:13:47Well, then I'll just have to ask Miss Grace for help with Miss Carrington.
01:13:51I think I swear.
01:14:02Yeah, I get that.
01:14:05Happy birthday, Mommy.
01:14:06What did you wish for?
01:14:08I just wish for you to be happy and healthy.
01:14:11It's not Mommy ever wanted.
01:14:12You're the best Mommy ever.
01:14:17Where are we going?
01:14:18Just follow me, Mommy.
01:14:19I have a surprise gift for you.
01:14:20What?
01:14:21Oh, Grace, did you do all this?
01:14:41Yes, Mommy.
01:14:43Oh, it's beautiful.
01:14:46Wow.
01:14:48Now close your eyes, and I'll tell you what to surprise.
01:14:51What a gift is.
01:14:52Close my eye.
01:14:54Okay, eyes are closed.
01:14:55What's going on?
01:14:57What now?
01:14:57I want to invite Mommy to a dance.
01:15:00You want me to dance with you with my eyes closed?
01:15:03That's right.
01:15:03I'll leave you.
01:15:05Okay.
01:15:06All right.
01:15:06Okay.
01:15:06Where are we going?
01:15:07Okay.
01:15:07All right.
01:15:08Okay.
01:15:09Where are we going?
01:15:11Happy birthday, Nicole.
01:15:30So, what is all this?
01:15:34Can I explain?
01:15:36Well, I mean, you never explained that night after you ran away.
01:15:40I know.
01:15:41I know.
01:15:41I'm sorry.
01:15:43I just...
01:15:44I just found out that someone had feelings for me, and I didn't really know how to react.
01:15:52Why?
01:15:53Did you not like that somebody?
01:15:56No.
01:15:57Oh, no.
01:15:57No, no, no.
01:15:58Of course I do.
01:15:59I just...
01:16:00I don't...
01:16:01Don't you think it's weird for two best friends to become more than that?
01:16:04From the moment I met you, Nicole, I knew I never wanted to just be friends.
01:16:14From the moment you met me?
01:16:16Yeah.
01:16:17Damon, we've been friends since we were kids.
01:16:19You never said anything.
01:16:21I know, and I think about it every day, Nicole.
01:16:25I just...
01:16:27I think about when we were young, and I was such an idiot.
01:16:30I never took the leap, and maybe if I had, we could have spent the last seven years together.
01:16:41So you're asking for my hand now?
01:16:45Yeah.
01:16:46Yeah, I am.
01:16:47But I know your marriage just ended, and how deeply hurt you are.
01:16:53And it's not my place to tell you how or when to get over that pain.
01:17:00I just...
01:17:02I need you to know...
01:17:06There's no one else from me but you.
01:17:11There's no one else from me but you.
01:17:18I...
01:17:18I just realized...
01:17:20Did you become a lawyer because of me?
01:17:23What?
01:17:24What?
01:17:25Wait, give it back.
01:17:26Give it back.
01:17:26Give it back.
01:17:27I'm gonna kiss this hot, sexy lawyer?
01:17:29This again.
01:17:32Yeah.
01:17:33Take it.
01:17:35Your dream was to kiss a hot and sexy lawyer.
01:17:38What was I supposed to do?
01:17:39I was just a nerd.
01:17:41Who changes their whole career path based on a silly joke?
01:17:45Who does that?
01:17:48Well...
01:17:49It doesn't matter what I've become in this life.
01:17:53One thing's never changed.
01:17:57I'm all yours.
01:17:59I always have been.
01:18:01I always will be.
01:18:02After that night...
01:18:18I've thought about this moment for a long, long time.
01:18:27And?
01:18:27I love you, too.
01:18:34I love you, too.
01:18:38I love you.
01:18:39Love you, too.
01:18:39I love you, I love you.
01:18:40I love you, too.
