Divorce Me One Last Time
Transcript
00:00:00How do you get your head out of these architecture books, Hallie, and finally go out with me?
00:00:15Never in a million years, Dirk Diggle.
00:00:19I want your book back. Why don't you come and get it?
00:00:22Come on. Hey!
00:00:24Listen, don't fight this, okay? We will be together eventually.
00:00:28Get off me!
00:00:29Hey, don't fight me, okay?
00:00:36Ow!
00:00:37You bitch!
00:00:41She said she's not interested, bro!
00:00:44Craig Brody. Oh, you always gotta play the hero, huh?
00:00:48Yeah, go ahead. You're one demerit away from getting thrown out of this school.
00:00:51You know your book back so bad?
00:00:53Alright, you take it.
00:00:56No!
00:01:06No!
00:01:08No! This is gonna cost a fortune to replace!
00:01:11You can have mine.
00:01:13No, I couldn't.
00:01:15Yeah, you could. I've seen you in class. You are brilliant.
00:01:19You're gonna get way more use out of this than I ever would.
00:01:23Do you want to grab lunch? Or keep studying?
00:01:38Um, yeah.
00:01:40Yeah.
00:01:41Yeah?
00:01:42Grab lunch.
00:01:43We're doing great.
00:01:44I'll be buying lunch.
00:01:47So, when did you two get back?
00:01:48Just an hour ago.
00:01:51And, this was waiting for me when I got back.
00:01:54I got in, Daddy!
00:01:56The young architect's program in Paris.
00:01:58It's a dream come true!
00:01:59in Paris. It's a dream come true. And when we get back, we're gonna rebuild this town.
00:02:08Together.
00:02:11Ali, give me some ice.
00:02:13Sure, Daddy.
00:02:17Are you two insane? Rebuild this town? This town is dying. And I want my daughter as far
00:02:24away from it as possible. But, sir, we have a plan. We even applied to adopt a child.
00:02:31Even more reason to end this now before you keep her trapped here forever. I promised
00:02:37Hallie's mother before she passed away that I would take care of our daughter. She deserves
00:02:42more than this two-bed town, and quite frankly, she deserves more than you. But, sir, I love
00:02:47her more than anything. I promise I will always take care of her. And you think that's important?
00:02:53She's going to be a world-class architect. You, you're, you're a local boy with a hammer.
00:03:02If you truly loved her, you'd let her go. Let her make something of herself!
00:03:08Deep down, you know I'm right. Here.
00:03:14This should be enough. I want her on that plane alone. I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:29For Mr. and Mrs. Craig Brody. We just got married. I got into an architecture program
00:03:38at Paris, and my new husband is coming with me.
00:03:41Actually, I'm not coming with you, Hallie.
00:03:44What? Why?
00:03:46You think I want to just sit around while you study crumbling buildings? You're never going
00:03:52to be a real architect. The world is going to chew you up and spit you out, and it's going
00:03:57to be too pathetic for me to watch.
00:04:01Um, what, what? No, what about our plans? We were trying to start a family, Dan.
00:04:09No, the last person I'd want to start a family with is you, Hallie. I want a divorce.
00:04:16No, no, but where is this coming from?
00:04:19Hi, Craig baby. Are you seeing Trista now?
00:04:25Yeah. Just, just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:04:29Craig, no! What?
00:04:34I thought you believed in me!
00:04:37Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:42Ma'am, boarding is closing. Are you coming or not?
00:04:45Yes, but I'd like to change my ticket to one way.
00:04:58Ms. Siltner! Ms. Siltner, you were just recognized by Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:05:03and your company is taking the New York architecture scene by storm. What's next for you?
00:05:08Um, I don't know. Taking over the world?
00:05:11Well, you and your boyfriend, billionaire politician Ned Vogel, are quite the power couple.
00:05:16He must be so proud.
00:05:18I'm not doing any of this for a man's approval.
00:05:20Well, word on the street is he's planning on proposing.
00:05:23You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
00:05:27The luckiest girl in the world?
00:05:29Right.
00:05:30Ms. Siltner, I-
00:05:31Ms. Siltner, you are the most impressive woman I've ever met. You are my soulmate.
00:05:54Will you marry me?
00:06:10Will you marry me?
00:06:12How are you both men? I love you more than anything.
00:06:14You are my soulmate and the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:06:17Will you make me the luckiest man in the world and marry me?
00:06:21Ali.
00:06:23Ali.
00:06:25You're really leaving me to sweat here.
00:06:27And this suit is way too expensive for them.
00:06:30The most eligible bachelor in the country is proposing to me.
00:06:33So why am I thinking about Craig?
00:06:35He was a jerk and a liar.
00:06:37And I need to move on with my life.
00:06:40Of course I'll marry you.
00:06:44This ring must have cost a fortune. You're so lucky. When's the wedding?
00:06:59Ned wants to get married as soon as possible.
00:07:02Oh, you know, Hallie would love a hot tea.
00:07:07We have a problem.
00:07:09And that is?
00:07:10You're already married to a Craig Brody?
00:07:19He never signed the divorce papers?
00:07:24So you're still married?
00:07:26He was my high school sweetheart.
00:07:29We got married.
00:07:32But it didn't work out.
00:07:33I thought he had signed the divorce papers.
00:07:35You thought?
00:07:36Yes.
00:07:37Hallie, the election is in six weeks.
00:07:38This could ruin my campaign.
00:07:40Just imagine the headlines.
00:07:41Senator's fiancee.
00:07:43Already a wife?
00:07:44I will get him to sign the papers.
00:07:46You better.
00:07:47Or there won't be a future for us, Hallie.
00:07:52I gotta take this.
00:07:53It's my campaign manager.
00:07:55But this is important.
00:07:56Yeah, so is this.
00:08:00Clarence.
00:08:01Clarence.
00:08:02What's going on, buddy?
00:08:03Talk to me.
00:08:08Motherfucker.
00:08:09I never thought I'd hear from you again, hon.
00:08:10Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:11I don't think so.
00:08:12So, you really ended it with her.
00:08:13What does it look like?
00:08:14Phrp.
00:08:15Yeah.
00:08:16Yeah.
00:08:17My feelings are not.
00:08:18I never thought I'd hear from you again, hon.
00:08:19Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:24Hi.
00:08:25So, you really ended it with her.
00:08:26What does it look like?
00:08:39What does it look like?
00:08:41Yeah.
00:08:43She's really gone.
00:08:45Good.
00:08:47Oh, there's this romantic movie playing at Cinema 6.
00:08:50I thought me and you can go and watch and we can cuddle.
00:08:53We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:08:56My heart still belongs to Allie.
00:08:59And it always will.
00:09:01I don't understand.
00:09:03Sometimes, when you truly love someone,
00:09:07you have to let them go.
00:09:11No matter how much it hurts.
00:09:15Thank you for your help.
00:09:23I hate you, Allie Brody!
00:09:31Your call has been forwarded to an automatic...
00:09:35Fine.
00:09:37You want me to come after you, Craig Brody?
00:09:41I will.
00:09:51Leave the bag. I'll be five minutes.
00:09:53It's been seven years, Craig Brody, and you broke my heart.
00:09:59Somehow, the pieces still beat for you.
00:10:05Allie!
00:10:07What are you doing here, Allie?
00:10:09Well, someone never signed the divorce papers, so we're still married.
00:10:11Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:13I can't sign them.
00:10:15You can't.
00:10:17It's...
00:10:19It's...
00:10:21It's...
00:10:22It's been seven years, Craig Brody, and you broke my heart.
00:10:23Somehow, the pieces still beat for you.
00:10:25What?
00:10:27What are you doing here, Allie?
00:10:29Well, someone never signed the divorce papers, so we're still married.
00:10:33Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:37I can't sign them.
00:10:38You can't?
00:10:39It's...
00:10:41Complicated.
00:10:42Then let me make it simple.
00:10:44I'm supposed to get married to, God, the man of my dreams, in six weeks.
00:10:48Only, the funny thing is, my ex-husband never signed the divorce papers.
00:10:53You're engaged.
00:10:54Yes, Craig!
00:10:55Or did you think I would never move on from you?
00:10:58Sign the papers!
00:10:59I can't sign them.
00:11:01Why not?
00:11:02There's something I have to tell you.
00:11:04Mommy!
00:11:06Oh, oh, ah...
00:11:12I can't sign them.
00:11:14Why not?
00:11:15Because we have a daughter together.
00:11:18And I never told you.
00:11:24We're finally approved.
00:11:27After all this time.
00:11:31You even remember?
00:11:36We're fine.
00:11:38You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:11:42Mommy!
00:11:45I'm sorry, but, um, I'm not your mommy.
00:11:48Yes, you are.
00:11:49You are my mommy.
00:11:51Tell her, daddy.
00:11:52Uh...
00:11:53Uh, Craig?
00:11:54What is she talking about?
00:11:55Natalie, why don't you go grab the nests?
00:11:57Because I said we'd go catch bullfrogs, remember?
00:11:59Okay.
00:12:00Is mommy coming with us?
00:12:01No, mommy and daddy needs to have a chat.
00:12:03All right?
00:12:04Okay, daddy.
00:12:05Do you want to tell me what the hell is going on?
00:12:11Well...
00:12:17Allie didn't come here to get back together.
00:12:19She came here to divorce me.
00:12:21And I have to let her move on.
00:12:23I tracked you down in the library in New York.
00:12:32And you were there with another guy.
00:12:36You looked happy.
00:12:38You looked free.
00:12:39Well?
00:12:40Um...
00:12:41You...
00:12:42You know, kids.
00:12:43Active imagination.
00:12:44She thinks every woman who comes on the farm is her mom.
00:12:59All right?
00:13:00Listen, just leave the papers on the counter and I'll sign them.
00:13:03I have a flight back to New York in three hours.
00:13:05And I am not leaving here without these papers signed.
00:13:08Well, I'm not signing them until I read them over first.
00:13:11Why, Craig?
00:13:13It's not like you have anything that I want.
00:13:15What do you have that I could possibly want?
00:13:19I'm ready, daddy.
00:13:21Okay.
00:13:22Um...
00:13:23I promise I'll sign them.
00:13:24Okay?
00:13:25I know better than to trust your promises, Craig.
00:13:27I got one for you too, mommy.
00:13:28Uh...
00:13:29Oh, yeah.
00:13:30So, Miss Allie is going back to New York.
00:13:33So, it's just gonna be you and me and get up.
00:13:34Like always.
00:13:35Okay.
00:13:37I...
00:13:38I'm sorry.
00:13:39Just leave them in the living room.
00:13:40I'll sign them.
00:13:41Come on.
00:14:00I'll sign them in the living room.
00:14:01I'm sorry.
00:14:02I'll sign them in the living room.
00:14:03Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:14:04Wait.
00:14:05Ah!
00:14:06Ah!
00:14:07Ah!
00:14:08Ah!
00:14:09Ah!
00:14:10Ah!
00:14:11No cell service still?
00:14:13Ah!
00:14:14Ah!
00:14:15Ah!
00:14:16Ah!
00:14:17Ah!
00:14:18Ah!
00:14:19Ah!
00:14:20Ah!
00:14:21Ah!
00:14:22Ah!
00:14:23Ah!
00:14:24Ah!
00:14:25Ah, no cell service still?
00:14:26Ah!
00:14:27Ah!
00:14:28I guess I'm walking.
00:14:33Mommy, help! Daddy's hurt.
00:14:38What happened?
00:14:39Daddy got bit by a big snake.
00:14:41Yeah.
00:14:43Oh.
00:14:44Copperhead?
00:14:45Mm-hmm.
00:14:51Daddy!
00:14:53You still remember how to draw out snake venom?
00:14:55Well, I haven't forgotten everything you taught me, Craig Brody.
00:15:03Here, keep the pressure on.
00:15:06Okay.
00:15:08Your daddy will be fine. I promise.
00:15:18Hold still.
00:15:21Okay.
00:15:24Keep the pressure on.
00:15:25Mm-hmm.
00:15:31So, your daughter.
00:15:33Mm-hmm.
00:15:34She looks about...
00:15:36Seven years old.
00:15:39So, she's Trista's.
00:15:41No.
00:15:42She's yours.
00:15:44She's yours.
00:15:45So, if she's not Trista's, how many other women were you sleeping with while we were together?
00:15:51I don't care if you were with the entire town.
00:15:55Just, um, sign the papers, Craig, and we can put this sham of marriage behind us.
00:15:59You've got to be kidding me.
00:16:01Where did they go?
00:16:03Daddy's had this photo in his nightstand for seven years, which means he still loves her.
00:16:08And if they loved each other once, they can love each other again.
00:16:12They just need another chance.
00:16:14Where are the divorce papers?
00:16:27No.
00:16:28Oh.
00:16:28I will check into the Picoi Inn for tonight.
00:16:40Oh.
00:16:40And we can look for the divorce papers tomorrow.
00:16:43The Picoi closed years ago.
00:16:45There was always your father's.
00:16:47That's, um, not an option.
00:16:50The way she said that, that something happened between her and her father.
00:16:55Well, unless you want to stay outside, I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:04I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:08Fine.
00:17:09But I'm not staying in your room.
00:17:11Wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:14You can stay in my room with me and Lucy.
00:17:17There you go.
00:17:27Wow, I love your room.
00:17:29Thanks, my daddy helped me decorate it.
00:17:41Okay, look.
00:17:45Oh my god.
00:17:46And no, it hasn't been easy.
00:17:47I'm trying to start a family, but, uh, one day, the adoption will go through.
00:17:55We're gonna have that baby, and you will be the most amazing.
00:17:59Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:13Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:27I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:41I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:52Bye.
00:19:06Bye.
00:19:08Bye.
00:19:10Bye.
00:19:10Bye.
00:19:12I don't know.
00:19:42seen before. Daddy? Do you know where McHaley went? Uh, no, I haven't seen her. Do you think
00:19:56she left us, Daddy? You know what? Just give me five minutes and I'll help you look, okay, sweetie?
00:20:02Okay, Daddy.
00:20:07Ow! Oh, my God.
00:20:12Greg, I'm engaged to someone else.
00:20:30So marry it to me.
00:20:35How could this kid any mess here?
00:20:38I should go.
00:20:59Hey.
00:21:01Hey.
00:21:02So I found the divorce papers.
00:21:07Natalie!
00:21:08I think she wants to keep us married.
00:21:11Would that be such a bad thing?
00:21:14Hello! I brought scones!
00:21:23What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:28Craig and Trista are still together?
00:21:30I mean, hi, baby.
00:21:33I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
00:21:35What a pleasant surprise, Holly.
00:21:38Bye.
00:21:38Uh, excuse me.
00:21:43What the fuck are you doing here?
00:21:46It's none of your business.
00:21:49Actually, where Craig's concerned, it is.
00:21:52So, you and Craig are still together?
00:21:57We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:22:00My heart still belongs to Hallie, and it always will.
00:22:03Still together?
00:22:07Why, of course we're still together.
00:22:09We've been inseparable.
00:22:11Ever since that day at the airport,
00:22:13the day that Craig chose me over you.
00:22:15Don't tell me you've forgotten.
00:22:19How could I?
00:22:22It's the worst day of my life.
00:22:23Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
00:22:26Because it was a pretty good day for me.
00:22:28I'm sure it was.
00:22:29Listen, if you're here to win Craig back, it's too late.
00:22:33Because I'm pretty sure he's planning on proposing to me.
00:22:36Any day now.
00:22:37So I need you to get your skinny little ass out of my town.
00:22:40Okay?
00:22:42Come here.
00:22:42Take a pastry for the road.
00:22:44I insist.
00:22:50Eat it.
00:22:51Oh, my God.
00:22:51Because it's the closest you'll get to tasting Craig's mouth ever again.
00:22:55Oh, my God.
00:23:01You New York bitch!
00:23:04Oh, my God.
00:23:07Oh, my God.
00:23:10You think you can just waltz back in here and pick up where you left off?
00:23:14Craig will always choose me over you.
00:23:21What the hell is going on?
00:23:22Oh, my ankle, my ankle.
00:23:26That crazy bitch.
00:23:30Like I said, he will always choose me over you.
00:23:34Are you okay?
00:23:36Why are you asking her?
00:23:38I'm the one who's injured.
00:23:42All I did was offer her a scone and then she called it dog food and then she kicked me.
00:23:46Oh, poor little thing.
00:23:50You got, you got, you got scone all over you.
00:23:53It's okay, Hallie.
00:23:54I forgive you.
00:23:55Even if you did break my leg.
00:23:57I didn't touch you.
00:23:59You need to put your petty jealousy aside.
00:24:01Craig divorced you for a reason.
00:24:03Are you coming back here?
00:24:05To diaper him back is just a headache.
00:24:08Actually, I didn't divorce Hallie.
00:24:11She's still my wife.
00:24:13What?
00:24:14Hallie is still my wife, which means you just insulted her in her own house.
00:24:21So, please leave Trista.
00:24:24Wait, baby.
00:24:25This is just one big misunderstanding.
00:24:27You heard my daddy get out of our house before we call the cops.
00:24:33Oh, my God.
00:24:33Ew.
00:24:34What is that disgusting creature?
00:24:36I'm going to vomit.
00:24:38Good job, Lucy.
00:24:40You know what?
00:24:41I should go.
00:24:42Hallie.
00:24:47It was nice meeting you, Natalie.
00:24:50I'm sorry.
00:24:57Lulu.
00:24:58Call me back.
00:25:01Hallie.
00:25:02You know, I never understood why you left me for Trista.
00:25:05Of all people, you knew I couldn't stand her.
00:25:09That's why I didn't.
00:25:10Because I knew it would hurt me most.
00:25:14Seeing her again just reminded me of the worst day of my life.
00:25:19Hallie.
00:25:21There's something I need to tell you about Trista.
00:25:23I don't want to talk about Trista anymore, okay?
00:25:28I have to take this.
00:25:29Lulu, can you email me another copy of the divorce papers ASAP?
00:25:33Another copy?
00:25:34What happened to the originals?
00:25:36It's a long story.
00:25:40Can you do it?
00:25:41It's Saturday.
00:25:43City Hall is closed until Monday.
00:25:45You're going to need a certified copy.
00:25:46I think you're going to have to stay the weekend there, boss.
00:25:49I hope that's not a big problem.
00:25:50No, of course not.
00:25:55Well, looks like I am staying until Monday.
00:25:58I'd like to get a new copy of the divorce papers.
00:26:00I don't have anything.
00:26:02Not a change of clothes, not even a toothbrush.
00:26:04I can just drive you to the store.
00:26:07Okay.
00:26:07Okay.
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:09Hey, Miss Hallie is staying.
00:26:20Stop looking at him like that, Hallie.
00:26:30You can't have feelings for him.
00:26:34Even if he is your husband.
00:26:36I can't believe how bad the town looks.
00:26:48When the factory closed, half the sores went with it.
00:26:52Well, at least Martha's diner is still here.
00:26:54Martha May makes the best burgers in the world.
00:26:58Yeah.
00:26:58Remember our crazy dream?
00:27:02You know, fix this place up?
00:27:03Of course I do.
00:27:05So?
00:27:07You probably have big plans after graduation.
00:27:11I'm applying to an architecture program in Paris.
00:27:14I doubt I'll get it, though.
00:27:15It's really competitive.
00:27:17Of course you will.
00:27:18I mean, they'd be fools not to take you.
00:27:21You think so?
00:27:22Oh, yeah, I know so.
00:27:25Well, after that, I want to come back here.
00:27:27Fix this town up.
00:27:28I am pretty good with a hammer.
00:27:31I need an assistant.
00:27:32How about a partner?
00:27:34Oh.
00:27:38Sounds perfect.
00:27:40Man, I could really go for a burger right now.
00:27:44I have an idea.
00:27:47Where are you taking me, Craig Brody?
00:27:52A picnic.
00:27:54Just like old times.
00:27:56Allow me.
00:27:59Oh.
00:28:04I hate you, Hallie!
00:28:11Wow, it's just like in high school.
00:28:14Still looks the same, doesn't it?
00:28:17And feels the same.
00:28:20I love you, Hallie Biltner.
00:28:22I want you to know
00:28:23I will never, ever hurt you.
00:28:27I'm so sorry for hurting you, Hallie.
00:28:32Natalie?
00:28:33And I were supposed to eat these
00:28:35on our fishing trip.
00:28:37I don't think she'll forgive me.
00:28:42Triangles.
00:28:42Just the way you tell me.
00:28:44It's Natalie's favorite way to eat them, too.
00:28:46Oh, I have to take this.
00:28:50Hey.
00:28:51Hallie.
00:28:52The press wants to know why we haven't been seen together.
00:28:54They think we broke up.
00:28:56You need to get back here right now.
00:28:58I can't yet.
00:29:03I need to get new divorce papers in city halls closed until Monday.
00:29:07New divorce papers?
00:29:09What?
00:29:09Your location says you're at your old high school.
00:29:12What the hell is going on?
00:29:13It's complicated.
00:29:17No, it is not complicated.
00:29:19Okay, look.
00:29:21I am pulling in a favor from the governor.
00:29:23We're going to get those papers expedited
00:29:25and we are going to force that husband of yours
00:29:27into signing them if we have to.
00:29:29I need you on the next flight back
00:29:31in an hour.
00:29:32In a couple?
00:29:33Yeah.
00:29:34That's not going to be a problem, is it?
00:29:39Of course not.
00:29:43I have to go.
00:29:47You wouldn't mind taking me to the airport, would you?
00:29:51Of course not.
00:30:00Just sign the papers when you get them, Craig.
00:30:02Okay?
00:30:03It's the least you can do.
00:30:05This is my last chance to tell her the truth.
00:30:09Well, goodbye, I guess.
00:30:13I, I...
00:30:14No, Craig.
00:30:15Oh, I'm done waiting.
00:30:18It's time for me to move on.
00:30:24Hello?
00:30:26What?
00:30:27Are you sure?
00:30:29Okay.
00:30:30Okay.
00:30:31Um.
00:30:31Um, it's my father.
00:30:34He's had a stroke.
00:30:35He's at the community hospital.
00:30:37Oh, come on.
00:30:37I'll, I'll drive you.
00:30:41Unless you're getting on that flight.
00:30:43No, uh, no.
00:30:45Of course not.
00:30:45Okay, good, good, good.
00:30:46Come on.
00:30:49What's going on?
00:30:51The neighbor found him this morning on the lawn.
00:30:53Um, Hallie, I didn't expect to see you here.
00:30:57Is he going to be okay?
00:30:58We're doing the best we can, but it's difficult considering his condition.
00:31:02His condition?
00:31:04Your father is dying, Hallie.
00:31:06Of kidney failure.
00:31:06How long does he have?
00:31:12A couple weeks.
00:31:14Maybe a month.
00:31:15I hope we're planning on sticking around this time.
00:31:19Excuse me.
00:31:19I had no idea.
00:31:26You didn't?
00:31:27When's the last time you saw him?
00:31:32Seven years ago.
00:31:39Hallie.
00:31:40Craig's divorcing me.
00:31:42He's been cheating on me.
00:31:44I knew that bastard wasn't good enough for you.
00:31:47But at least you found out before he followed you to Paris.
00:31:50No, I'm not going to Paris.
00:31:52I can't get on that plane.
00:31:54What?
00:31:56Craig was right.
00:31:57I'm not, I'm not a real architect.
00:32:00Everyone's going to laugh at me.
00:32:01You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:03But, Daddy, I...
00:32:05If you come back now, you'll be a laughing stock.
00:32:08You'll be a divorced loser.
00:32:10No one will want you.
00:32:11Not Craig.
00:32:13Not even me.
00:32:16Daddy?
00:32:17You get on that plane, Hallie.
00:32:20I never want to see you again.
00:32:22You are a disgrace.
00:32:33Nobody's ever been so mean to me.
00:32:38Except you, Ennis.
00:32:40God, it's like the two of you were in cahoots.
00:32:44Should I tell her that we were?
00:32:47If I tell her the truth,
00:32:49she'll never forgive her dying father.
00:32:52Didn't work out for the best, though.
00:32:55I mean, look at the life you've built for yourself.
00:32:57You deserve more than this small town.
00:32:59You and my father certainly made it easy to leave.
00:33:06What's going on?
00:33:08Power grid has been happening for weeks.
00:33:15Natalie?
00:33:16Daddy.
00:33:17I'm scared.
00:33:19It's dark and there's someone outside.
00:33:21I'll be right there.
00:33:22Keep the doors locked.
00:33:24I have to go.
00:33:25I'm coming with you.
00:33:26Hallie, this isn't something that...
00:33:27I'm coming with you.
00:33:29Okay, okay.
00:33:29Come on.
00:33:32Natalie?
00:33:34Oh, my God.
00:33:35Oh, my God.
00:33:36Oh, my God.
00:33:37Thank God.
00:33:38I was so scared.
00:33:43It's okay.
00:33:44It's okay.
00:33:44You're okay.
00:33:46It must have been raccoons.
00:33:48Broken through the window.
00:33:50Probably those scones, huh?
00:33:52Yeah.
00:33:53I'm so sorry for leaving you alone for so long.
00:33:56Oh, it's my fault.
00:33:57No, no, no.
00:33:58I was happy to help, but...
00:33:59I think you missed your flight.
00:34:02So, you're saying we can watch a movie together?
00:34:09I, uh...
00:34:10Yes, we can.
00:34:15Miss Haley, come closer.
00:34:21Daddy, come closer.
00:34:22Isn't this great?
00:34:27Just the three of us.
00:34:31This blanket always makes my daddy fall asleep.
00:34:52Oh, my God.
00:35:10I love you, Allie Brody.
00:35:14Why does this feel so right?
00:35:19He's still my husband.
00:35:20And I know every freckle on his body.
00:35:25But no.
00:35:26I'm divorcing him.
00:35:28And marrying someone else.
00:35:33Yeah.
00:35:34Oh.
00:35:34What?
00:35:37Oh, my God.
00:35:42Allie.
00:35:47Mommy and Daddy, I made breakfast.
00:35:50Do you like it?
00:35:57I made pancakes.
00:35:59They are excellent.
00:36:01It's weird.
00:36:02Mm-hmm.
00:36:03This is what families do.
00:36:05They eat breakfast together.
00:36:11What's up?
00:36:11There's some stupid birthday invitation.
00:36:19All the kids from school will be there, but I'm not going.
00:36:22Why not?
00:36:24Because everyone always says, if I had a mom, she'd help me pick up better gifts.
00:36:30And they say I'm just a momless loser.
00:36:32You are not a momless loser, Natalie.
00:36:36And don't let anyone make you feel less than you are.
00:36:42I grew up without a mom, too, you know.
00:36:45And it was hard.
00:36:46But I was always able to rely on my dad.
00:36:51Just like you can.
00:36:55And by the way, your dad is worth a thousand movies.
00:37:00That's true.
00:37:01She checked.
00:37:03So go to that party with your head held high.
00:37:06No one can take your power from you unless you let them.
00:37:13Okay, Miss Allie.
00:37:14I'll go to the party.
00:37:15Thanks.
00:37:22Oh, no.
00:37:25Excuse me.
00:37:26Um, I have to take this.
00:37:33I see you got my messages.
00:37:36Delete that photo, Trista.
00:37:37Oh, which one?
00:37:39Because I have plenty.
00:37:43What's the problem?
00:37:44A rich fiancé isn't enough for you, so you have to come back and seduce your husband, too.
00:37:49I didn't come here to get back with Craig, Trista.
00:37:51I came here to divorce him.
00:37:53Really?
00:37:55Then prove it.
00:37:56Walk away now and leave this town for good.
00:37:59Otherwise, these photos will go to the senator.
00:38:06I could ruin you, Hallie.
00:38:08So don't mess with my life, and I won't mess with yours.
00:38:12Yes.
00:38:19Hey.
00:38:20Everything okay?
00:38:21Hi.
00:38:22Who are you talking to?
00:38:24Oh, uh, my, uh, fiancé's lawyer.
00:38:27He'll be by with new divorce papers.
00:38:31Um, I have to go.
00:38:32Right now?
00:38:33Yes.
00:38:34I'm sorry, but yes.
00:38:36Can you call me a cab?
00:38:37Hallie.
00:38:37Call me a cab, Craig.
00:38:39Okay.
00:38:43My plan didn't work, Lucy.
00:38:45I guess Mommy isn't in love with Daddy after all.
00:38:47Martha May?
00:38:58Hallie Builder, as I live and breathe!
00:39:01Oh!
00:39:02Oh, how are you so skinny?
00:39:04I thought that city of yours had a restaurant on every block.
00:39:07Oh, well, they do, but none of them make a burger as good as you do.
00:39:11Oh, well, that's nice to know I'll be remembered fondly, at least.
00:39:15What?
00:39:15Don't tell me you're shutting down.
00:39:17Yeah, I don't have a choice.
00:39:18Rent's gone up and I can't afford the place anymore.
00:39:21No.
00:39:21No, there must be something I can do.
00:39:24Mayor Diggle, shut it down.
00:39:27Mayor Diggle.
00:39:31Dirk, I can't believe you're shutting down Martha's Diner.
00:39:35It's a town institution.
00:39:37Is it?
00:39:37Or are you just upset about it because you and your boyfriend, Craig, used to go there?
00:39:42This isn't high school anymore, Dirk.
00:39:43And this isn't a game.
00:39:46What is it going to take for you to leave the diner alone?
00:39:49Well, you know I've always liked you, so how about you and me handle this privately?
00:39:57I'll pay you.
00:39:58Twelve months' rent in advance.
00:40:02Listen, you think I want your money?
00:40:04No, I had something more interesting in mind.
00:40:07You!
00:40:08You're disgusting!
00:40:08Listen, Craig was here to save you last time, but he's not here now.
00:40:14Looks like you're all alone, Hallie.
00:40:16No!
00:40:18Let go of my wallet!
00:40:19Well, you two are under arrest for assaulting the mayor.
00:40:33You know the drill.
00:40:35This is just like how I used to arrest you when you was back in high school.
00:40:38You're so cool.
00:40:46Wife, huh?
00:40:48Some habits are hard to break.
00:40:52God, this is so not funny.
00:40:54Ned is running for senator.
00:40:56What will this look like if anyone finds out?
00:40:58And who's going to check a county jail in a nowhere town?
00:41:02I should have never come back here.
00:41:03I should have sent my assistant.
00:41:05I should have hired a lawyer!
00:41:06Then why didn't you?
00:41:09I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:13I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:15In your dreams, I have moved on to bigger and better things.
00:41:19Yeah, I heard about that.
00:41:20That neighborhood you shut down put 6,000 people out of work.
00:41:24And the complex I built brought back 10,000 jobs.
00:41:28Yeah, for Ivy Leaguers and corporate types.
00:41:31What about the blue collars?
00:41:33What about the people you came from?
00:41:35I've tried to forget where I came from.
00:41:38Okay, isn't that what you wanted when you told me I don't belong here?
00:41:41I shouldn't have said that.
00:41:42No, you were right.
00:41:44I'm not the same girl you married.
00:41:47I've built a life, a career.
00:41:49I should thank you.
00:41:52Because I couldn't have done it without you.
00:41:54All right, lovebirds.
00:41:57Your bail's been posted.
00:41:58You're free to go.
00:42:00Bail?
00:42:01By who?
00:42:04Hey, Howls.
00:42:07Ned!
00:42:12Hey, Howls.
00:42:14Ned.
00:42:14So, you must be Craig Brody.
00:42:21The man who couldn't even sign a simple divorce paper.
00:42:24And you must be Ned Vogel.
00:42:26The man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:29Yeah, well, my money got you out of jail, didn't it?
00:42:32I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:34Well, you can think of it as the government working for you.
00:42:38Well, you can shove your government up your silver spoon.
00:42:41Guys, please stop.
00:42:43No, you're right.
00:42:44I'm not here to argue with a man who's holding on to the past.
00:42:51We got the divorce papers expedited.
00:42:53So, you can sign them, Craig.
00:42:55This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:00Can I really divorce Hallie without her knowing about her own daughter?
00:43:07Sign the papers.
00:43:09Or we take you to court.
00:43:12But I gotta tell you, my lawyer's a shark.
00:43:15Say something, Hallie.
00:43:18Say something to stop this.
00:43:21Sign the papers, Craig.
00:43:22Let me go.
00:43:25It's the least you can do.
00:43:34Wonderful.
00:43:35We will get these filed at the town hall.
00:43:38And you will be divorced in an hour.
00:43:42This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:45It's time for you to finally move on with your life, Hallie.
00:43:51Well, are you coming?
00:43:52Yes, of course.
00:43:57Bye.
00:44:04That is who she ended up with?
00:44:07I always thought it'd be you.
00:44:10You know, sometimes things don't work out the way we want them to.
00:44:14Hallie, what were you thinking?
00:44:18Jail?
00:44:19Are you trying to ruin my campaign?
00:44:22No.
00:44:23No, this has nothing to do with you.
00:44:25You are going to be my wife.
00:44:29Everything you do reflects on me.
00:44:32Now, are there any other skeletons I should know about?
00:44:37No.
00:44:38No.
00:44:38Nothing.
00:44:38Nothing.
00:44:39Nothing.
00:44:39This town is just how you described it.
00:44:54low-class, run-down, depressing.
00:45:00It isn't that bad.
00:45:03Those are your words, Hallie.
00:45:05What's gotten into you?
00:45:06I don't know, um, just being back here.
00:45:12Should I remind you how lucky you are to have gotten out?
00:45:17Class signature, Miss Builder.
00:45:19And you'll be free and clear to be the wife of Aseni.
00:45:20Okay, let's go.
00:45:37Fair wages, fair pay, we all get to contract today.
00:45:41Let us through.
00:45:42No one gets in or out today.
00:45:43Town workers on strike.
00:45:45We need to get these filed.
00:45:47We have a flight to catch in 30 minutes.
00:45:49Sorry, we can't do it.
00:45:55There you are, Mommy.
00:45:59Mommy?
00:46:03I knew you wanted to leave without me, Mommy.
00:46:06Mommy, you two have a kid together?
00:46:08No, no, no, no, of course not.
00:46:10Natalie, come on.
00:46:11Miss Hallie has to go.
00:46:12No, no!
00:46:14I'm so sorry.
00:46:16I hate you.
00:46:17I hate both of you.
00:46:19Another reason why I'm glad I don't have kids.
00:46:23Look, we need to get these signed.
00:46:25What's it going to cost me to make it happen?
00:46:27Whoa!
00:46:28Is this a city senate official bribing a city employee?
00:46:33You see, I have my fair share of scandals, but this, this is bad.
00:46:41Hallie, I see you got a fancy new fiance.
00:46:45What happened to your husband?
00:46:47He's still locked away in jail?
00:46:49I think he means soon-to-be ex-husband.
00:46:51Ah, looks like your father got what he always wanted.
00:46:55You and Craig finally divorced.
00:46:59What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:02What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:06Wait, Craig never told you-
00:47:07Fair, wait, just fair, fair!
00:47:09Hey, keep it down, all right?
00:47:11Or I will write you up for a noise violation.
00:47:13How about you pay us what we're owed
00:47:15and not waste our tax dollars on fancy new fire trucks
00:47:19and cocktail parties?
00:47:21Mayor Sullivan never would have done anything.
00:47:23All right, listen.
00:47:24Mayor Sullivan is not in charge anymore.
00:47:26I am, all right?
00:47:28So please just keep it down.
00:47:30Fair, wait, just fair, pay.
00:47:32All right, keep it down.
00:47:33Fair, wait, just fair, pay.
00:47:35I'll sign that paper for you.
00:47:38Yeah, all right, good.
00:47:42Where's the rest of it?
00:47:43What?
00:47:43Well, I can't sign this without a custody agreement.
00:47:46A custody agreement?
00:47:48Sure, this child is just as much Hallie's as she is Craig's.
00:47:54You lied to her.
00:47:56No, no, no, I didn't know, I swear.
00:48:00How is this even possible?
00:48:02Well, she's adopted.
00:48:03I mean, I did the paperwork myself.
00:48:04You listed as parent number one.
00:48:06Jeez, I would have thought he would have told you about it by now.
00:48:09This is not a good thing.
00:48:11A husband is one thing, but a child?
00:48:13If this gets out, I am sunk.
00:48:15Right.
00:48:16A messy custody battle never sits low with voters.
00:48:18Who said anything about a custody agreement?
00:48:21Hallie doesn't even want the kid, right, Hallie?
00:48:23I mean, you barely even know the child.
00:48:25She'll give up custody right now.
00:48:26Where do we sign?
00:48:27It's not that simple.
00:48:28In a case like this, when a child's involved,
00:48:30both parties have to attend a parenting class.
00:48:32The next one starts tomorrow.
00:48:35Tomorrow?
00:48:36I do not have time for this.
00:48:39I have to get back to New York before the press starts asking questions.
00:48:44Go.
00:48:45Go, I'll get this sorted out.
00:48:47Fine.
00:48:48Take care of this child.
00:48:50End this marriage.
00:48:51Quickly and quietly.
00:48:53How come you never told me that Natalie is my daughter?
00:49:06Natalie.
00:49:07No!
00:49:07You were just going to let me divorce you,
00:49:09never knowing that Natalie is my daughter?
00:49:12Shh.
00:49:12Shh.
00:49:12Shh.
00:49:19The adoption went through after you left.
00:49:23You didn't think I deserved to know?
00:49:26You could have called, written anything!
00:49:29I tried.
00:49:31What?
00:49:34And you were there with another guy.
00:49:37You looked happy.
00:49:39You looked free.
00:49:41Seems you don't need me and Natalie anymore.
00:49:43And that's why you never told me that I had a daughter?
00:49:46You looked like you'd moved on.
00:49:50I moved on.
00:49:53It took me years to move on.
00:49:58And honestly,
00:49:59I don't know if I ever have.
00:50:04Forget it.
00:50:06It doesn't matter now anyway.
00:50:10Here.
00:50:10Parenting class.
00:50:17We need to take it in order to get divorced.
00:50:20Custody.
00:50:22Co-parenting.
00:50:24Legally, Natalie is just as much mine as she is yours.
00:50:27You haven't spent any time with her.
00:50:30You didn't raise her.
00:50:31I know.
00:50:32And whose fault is that?
00:50:35Class is at 8 a.m.
00:50:37Don't be late.
00:50:42I knew Miss Haley was my mommy.
00:50:50Dad?
00:50:54Maya, what's going on here?
00:50:55Daddy!
00:51:05He's okay.
00:51:06He's stabilized.
00:51:08Your old man's a fighter, Holly.
00:51:11And clearly he's fighting to see you again.
00:51:14No fighting to see me?
00:51:17No, if anything.
00:51:18He'd be pissed to know I'm back.
00:51:20My dad hates me.
00:51:22That's not possible.
00:51:23Holly, he talks about you all the time.
00:51:25He does?
00:51:27Yep.
00:51:28Every Monday and Thursday at dialysis.
00:51:31That's how I know about your fancy job.
00:51:34And your fancy boyfriend.
00:51:36None of this makes any sense.
00:51:39Holly, are you okay?
00:51:40Yep.
00:51:41Yeah, today's just been...
00:51:44A lot.
00:51:46Maya, did, uh, you know...
00:51:48That Natalie's...
00:51:50My daughter?
00:51:50My shift ends in five minutes.
00:51:56Do you want to grab a drink?
00:52:00Craig has never revealed who Natalie's mother was, but he's never been with anyone since you,
00:52:06so we figured...
00:52:07Wait a second.
00:52:07Uh, he's never been with anyone since me?
00:52:10No, he left me for Trista.
00:52:13I saw him.
00:52:14Trista?
00:52:15She's been after him for years, sure, but he'd never touch her with a ten-foot pole.
00:52:19I don't understand.
00:52:21Just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:52:24Craig!
00:52:25Oh my...
00:52:27Excuse me, Maya.
00:52:38I need to get to the bottom of this.
00:52:49Good to see you, Hallie.
00:52:50I know the truth.
00:52:52You were never with Trista.
00:52:54So tell me the truth about everything.
00:52:57Right now.
00:53:03Play me for it.
00:53:05If you win,
00:53:08I'll tell you.
00:53:16Looks like Big City Living hasn't doled your A-Metal.
00:53:19No, if anything,
00:53:21it made me sharper.
00:53:26You two are playing like your lives depend on it.
00:53:36Well,
00:53:37kind of do.
00:53:44Oops.
00:53:44If you do that again,
00:53:50I might just have to take you right here on the table.
00:53:54Too bad I'm engaged.
00:53:58What are you playing at, Hallie?
00:54:00I deserve the truth.
00:54:01Why?
00:54:03You came here to divorce me.
00:54:04What good would the truth do?
00:54:06I'll be the one to decide that.
00:54:08I'll be the one to decide that.
00:54:22Now,
00:54:24pass up.

00:58:16I didn't realize Hallie would try to provoke you like that
00:58:20oh Hallie was right
00:58:22I should have told her about Natalie
00:58:23it was unfair
00:58:24I need to apologize
00:58:25do you?
00:58:26because you and I both know
00:58:27what Hallie would have chosen all those years ago
00:58:29and it wouldn't have been you and them
00:58:31I don't because I never gave her the chance
00:58:33I did
00:58:34what?
00:58:35all those years ago
00:58:36I told her about Natalie
00:58:37I don't understand
00:58:47I don't understand
00:58:50I care about you Craig
00:58:51and I would never ever lie to you
00:58:53I told her that you had a daughter together
00:58:55when she never even tried to contact you
00:58:56did she?
00:58:58I told her that you had a daughter together
00:59:00and she never even tried to contact you
00:59:01did she?
00:59:03I'm so sorry I didn't tell you before, but I was just trying to protect you.
00:59:12She said that the last thing that she wanted was a daughter with you.
00:59:15She said that?
00:59:17Yes.
00:59:18In fact, she said that she didn't want any kids at all.
00:59:21Allie was born to be a mother.
00:59:23That's all she's ever wanted.
00:59:25Is it?
00:59:27This is from the judge.
00:59:29She's planning on giving up full custody.
00:59:32She's going to New York.
00:59:33She has no interest in fighting for you or Natalie.
00:59:37But I do.
00:59:46What are you doing?
00:59:48I'm just trying to help you move on, Craig.
00:59:51Allie will never choose you.
00:59:54But I will.
00:59:55It's not going to happen, Trista.
00:59:58It's not.
00:59:58Natalie.
00:59:59Natalie needs a mother.
01:00:01You know it and I know it.
01:00:02You need to move on, Craig.
01:00:04And come back to reality.
01:00:05Let me out!
01:00:08Allie?
01:00:10What did you do to her?
01:00:12Nothing!
01:00:13Nothing!
01:00:13Nothing!
01:00:13This was a mistake.
01:00:15Having you helped me out all those years ago is the biggest regret of my life.
01:00:19It's never going to happen, no matter what happens with me and Hallie.
01:00:30You want to play it like that?
01:00:32So be it.
01:00:33Hi!
01:00:38Hi!
01:00:38I'd like to speak to Senator Ned Vogel, please.
01:00:46Are you okay?
01:00:48Don't.
01:00:50Why do you care, Craig?
01:00:51Is everything you tell me a lie?
01:00:53What?
01:00:54I saw you kissing Trista!
01:00:56Don't try and deny it.
01:00:58You told me you loved me.
01:01:01I don't believe a word you say.
01:01:03Hallie, please, please believe me.
01:01:04That was a mistake.
01:01:06God, the only mistake I ever made was coming back here.
01:01:10I don't know what I thought I'd find.
01:01:13But now I know.
01:01:15I dodged a bullet seven years ago.
01:01:17Hi!
01:01:22I'd like to inform Senator Ned Vogel that his perfect little fiancé is cheating on him with her husband.
01:01:30And don't worry.
01:01:31I have pictures to prove it.
01:01:36No, this isn't a prank phone call.
01:01:39I have proof.
01:01:43What?
01:01:43What?
01:01:44No, I'm not lying.
01:01:46Hello?
01:01:46Hello?
01:01:47Hello?
01:01:51I guess I'll just have to go to the New York Post with this one.
01:01:54You're buried, Hallie.
01:01:58Ned, hi.
01:02:00Hallie, great news.
01:02:01I just got off the phone with my lawyer.
01:02:03He said because you're giving up custody, parenting class is unnecessary.
01:02:07So, you can sign the papers today, and you'll be divorced by tomorrow.
01:02:12Tomorrow?
01:02:12Yeah.
01:02:14I already got a schedule for a gala Saturday,
01:02:16a fundraising brunch on Sunday.
01:02:17I can't wait to get you back on my arm in that pretty little black dress of yours.
01:02:21Me either.
01:02:25Well, you don't sound very happy.
01:02:27It's just...
01:02:27What about Natalie?
01:02:30My daughter?
01:02:31What are you going to do, Hallie?
01:02:32Bring the kid with you to New York?
01:02:34Co-parent with your ex?
01:02:35No.
01:02:36Look, if you want to have a baby, we can have a baby.
01:02:40Together.
01:02:42But I'm not going to raise someone else's kids, okay?
01:02:44Just sign over the custody and divorce it.
01:02:48Today.
01:02:48There's nothing there for you anymore, Hallie.
01:02:52Not anymore.
01:02:56You're right.
01:02:57There is nothing left for me here.
01:03:00Hallie.
01:03:01I'm giving up custody and going back to New York.
01:03:05You win, Craig.
01:03:06Win?
01:03:07You never wanted me to be a part of Natalie's life.
01:03:10Or yours.
01:03:13Well, congratulations.
01:03:15You got your wish.
01:03:15Hallie, please just hear me out.
01:03:17That's not the full story.
01:03:18There is nothing that you can say that will change anything.
01:03:21The damage is done.
01:03:24Let's just sign the papers and end this marriage.
01:03:30Party one agrees to give up full custody.
01:03:33Correct?
01:03:35That's right.
01:03:36Okay, so regarding the parental rights of Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:03:41What?
01:03:41Hallie?
01:03:43Her middle name is Hallie?
01:03:44She's your daughter, too.
01:03:47She's your daughter, too.
01:03:49Hey!
01:03:50Oh, my God.
01:03:54She belongs here.
01:03:56I'm not going to raise someone else's kid.
01:04:01Ma'am.
01:04:02Please sign in the dotted line.
01:04:09It's really over.
01:04:10It's really over.
01:04:14Now for the divorce papers.
01:04:35Is that it?
01:04:35Yes.
01:04:37Congratulations.
01:04:39In 24 hours, you'll be ex-husband and wife.
01:04:42It was nice being married to you, Hallie Bovner.
01:04:47Wish I could say the same, Craig Brody.
01:04:49Lulu, um, I'll be back in the city by tonight.
01:04:59Rebook my meetings and get me a pedicure appointment.
01:05:03Thank God.
01:05:03I thought you were never coming back.
01:05:05But then I remembered.
01:05:07You're Hallie Bovner.
01:05:08Your work is your life.
01:05:10Hi, life.
01:05:13Right.
01:05:17Oh, um, by the way, did you ever do that favor I asked?
01:05:21Oh, you mean that favor where I went to 50 different toy stores all over the city just
01:05:25for one special kid?
01:05:28Yes, I did.
01:05:30Which, might I ask, who is this special child?
01:05:33A monster truck 300?
01:05:45This is the best present ever!
01:05:48Who's next?
01:05:50Sam, why don't you get Natalie's present over with?
01:05:53We all know it's going to be the worst.
01:05:56Here it is.
01:05:57Look how tiny it is.
01:05:59Catch.
01:06:00Catch.
01:06:00It's probably a gum wrapper.
01:06:06Or a half-eaten apple.
01:06:08She's so poor, she probably can't afford anything else.
01:06:13Guys, be nice.
01:06:15At least if it's not a tree branch like last time.
01:06:19It was a walking stick and my dad made it.
01:06:22That's right, your dad.
01:06:24Because where's your mom again?
01:06:26That's right, nowhere.
01:06:30Oops, I hope it wasn't fragile.
01:06:38It's a friendship bracelet.
01:06:40Friendship?
01:06:41We're not friends.
01:06:43That's so sad.
01:06:45I can't believe you actually invited this freak to your party.
01:06:49My mom forced me to.
01:06:51If you had a mom, she'd help you pick out a real present, not this dumb piece of string.
01:06:57I do have a mom.
01:06:59Then, where is she?
01:07:01She lives in New York and she's a powerful CEO.
01:07:04Why do you make up a story like that?
01:07:06If your mom was a powerful CEO, she would give you better gifts than this.
01:07:10Momless Loser.
01:07:15Momless Loser.
01:07:17Momless Loser.
01:07:19Momless Loser.
01:07:21Momless Loser.
01:07:23Momless Loser.
01:07:25Momless Loser.
01:07:27Nobody can take your power away from you except you.
01:07:32Don't ever forget that.
01:07:33You were wrong, Mommy, and you left me.
01:07:36You know what?
01:07:37Forget this.
01:07:46Hi.
01:07:47I have a delivery for Sam Baker.
01:07:50That's me.
01:07:53These must be for my uncle.
01:07:56He's super rich.
01:07:58Where do you think you're going?
01:08:00I never should have come.
01:08:01I'm getting out of here.
01:08:03Actually, you're going to stay here and watch what real presents look like.
01:08:08Yeah, and maybe next time you'll come up with something better than a stupid piece of string.
01:08:13A pickleball racket?
01:08:15Nintendo switch?
01:08:16A build room bar kit?
01:08:19An e-scooter?
01:08:21A monster truck 400?
01:08:24These must cost a fortune.
01:08:27Uncle Rick is the best.
01:08:29Uh, actually, these gifts are from Natalie's mom.
01:08:37My mommy.
01:08:38She does love me.
01:08:39Wait.
01:08:40This has to be a prank.
01:08:42Natalie is just lying about her mom.
01:08:44She's a real.
01:08:45Well, someone very real signed for these purchase orders herself.
01:08:48All $15,000 worth of them.
01:08:50$15,000?
01:08:53How rich is she?
01:08:55Like I said, she's a powerful CEO in New York.
01:08:58And she's too busy to care what you small town losers think.
01:09:03No, wait.
01:09:03No.
01:09:04Where are you going?
01:09:04Uh, it's okay.
01:09:06You can sit next to me.
01:09:07No.
01:09:08Sit next to me.
01:09:09I want to be friends with you if you pay me.
01:09:13Enjoy the presents, loser.
01:09:17And your cake is dry, by the way.
01:09:25Daddy.
01:09:28I don't know if you can hear me, but I wanted you to know I'm going back to New York.
01:09:34Okay?
01:09:35You were right about Craig.
01:09:36He's a liar.
01:09:40And a cheat.
01:09:41But the man I'm about to marry?
01:09:44He's rich.
01:09:47Handsome.
01:09:49Successful.
01:09:51Exactly.
01:09:52The kind of man you would have wanted for me.
01:09:55I'll miss you.
01:09:57Okay?
01:10:00You're running towards something.
01:10:02Back to your life.
01:10:04Go.
01:10:05Well, your father's in good hands.
01:10:07I promise.
01:10:08Would you look after Natalie?
01:10:10For me.
01:10:11Of course.
01:10:27Hi.
01:10:27Hi.
01:10:29Thank you, Ms. Builder.
01:10:29First class is to the left.
01:10:31Thank you so much.
01:10:33Mommy!
01:10:33What are you doing here?
01:10:37I'm coming with you to New York.
01:10:41Natalie, it's...
01:10:43It's not that simple.
01:10:45Look, your father and I, we...
01:10:47We got divorced.
01:10:48But that doesn't mean you can't still be my mommy.
01:10:52Actually, it does.
01:10:54Look, you belong here.
01:10:56With your father.
01:10:57So do you, mommy.
01:10:58I know you do, and so does daddy.
01:11:01Wait, what?
01:11:02Daddy sometimes talks in his sleep.
01:11:05He's always saying sorry to you and how much he loves you.
01:11:11This will always belong to Hallie.
01:11:14And so will my heart.
01:11:16What is this doing here?
01:11:19Whatever he did, I think he feels really bad about it.
01:11:22And I think he's still in love with you.
01:11:24Ma'am, the boarding is closing.
01:11:28Are you coming?
01:11:30Yes, we're coming.
01:11:33I'm sorry, sweetie.
01:11:34I can't let you fly.
01:11:35I'm not without a ticket.
01:11:37Ma'am, you'll need to choose.
01:11:38Are you staying here with her, or are you flying to New York?
01:11:41We're closing the doors in one minute.
01:11:43The flight departs in one minute.
01:11:52Come on, Natalie.
01:11:54I'll take you home.
01:11:54Oh, my God.
01:12:03Where'd you find her?
01:12:04She was at the airport.
01:12:06Airport?
01:12:07I wanted to go up to New York City with mommy.
01:12:10She knows.
01:12:12I cried.
01:12:15Natalie, can you give us a minute?
01:12:17Okay, daddy.
01:12:18Thank you for bringing her back.
01:12:21I'm sorry, of course.
01:12:24But, um, before I go, I have a failure to ask.
01:12:28Anything.
01:12:30I'm probably not only a mother.
01:12:32I just make sure it's not Trista, okay?
01:12:37Okay.
01:12:41Bye.
01:12:41Bye.
01:12:51After all these years, he never gave up on us.
01:13:11After all these years, he never gave up on us.
01:13:15You probably could have come up with something better.
01:13:22No, it's perfect.
01:13:27How long have you been working on this?
01:13:30A few years now.
01:13:33Ever since I left?
01:13:36Maybe.
01:13:37But, why?
01:13:42I couldn't let our dream die just because our marriage did.
01:13:46That crazy dream?
01:13:49Doesn't look so crazy anymore, does it?
01:13:53No, it doesn't.
01:13:54Allie, not a day goes by where I don't think about you.
01:13:58And I know, I know, you won't believe a word I say, but I thought maybe you'd believe something you could see.
01:14:15Is that us?
01:14:18Yeah, it is.
01:14:19I love you.
01:14:27And I never stopped.
01:14:44I've missed this for so long.
01:14:47I've wanted this.
01:14:48For so long.
01:14:50No.
01:14:51No, we have to stop.
01:14:55The papers are signed, Craig.
01:14:57I'm engaged to someone else.
01:15:00And it's too late to turn the clock back now.
01:15:05Send me a picture when the town's rebuilt, okay?
01:15:08That's the thing.
01:15:09It won't be.
01:15:12What?
01:15:13What do you mean?
01:15:15Got this in the mail today.
01:15:16My plans were approved, but Dirk Diggle bought up all the local contractors, and I can't afford anyone else, so I'm going to have to rescind my offer.
01:15:27No, you can't do that.
01:15:28I have to.
01:15:29I don't have a choice.
01:15:31What if I said, I could help.
01:15:35I could help.
01:15:39Go back to New York.
01:15:43I mean, don't worry about someone's tiny little dream in a nowhere town.
01:15:49This was our dream, Craig.
01:15:55Besides, you helped me out with their didawas.
01:16:00She said she's not interested, bro.
01:16:02Now let me help you.
01:16:04Now let me help you.
01:16:15Lulu.
01:16:16Um.
01:16:17Change of plans.
01:16:18Send all of our best contractors to Franklin, Tennessee.
01:16:22Also, cancel my pedicure appointment.
01:16:23Have you come to withdraw your application, Craig?
01:16:32I knew you couldn't afford it.
01:16:33Well, actually, I just came to give you the deposit.
01:16:36We break ground tomorrow.
01:16:38We break ground tomorrow.
01:16:41We.
01:16:42We said we would fix this town.
01:16:44Mm-hmm.
01:16:45And that is exactly what we're going to do.
01:16:52I never thought I'd see the day where our dream became a reality.
01:16:55No, it was always your dream.
01:16:57I was just happy to help.
01:17:01Lulu!
01:17:02Oh, my God!
01:17:04Wow, boss.
01:17:05No wonder you never came back.
01:17:07You never told me your husband was a stone-cold pot.
01:17:10Oh.
01:17:11Ex-husband.
01:17:14Right.
01:17:18Hallie.
01:17:20Ned.
01:17:21Hi.
01:17:23What are you doing here?
01:17:24I told you I would be back next week.
01:17:25You want to tell me what the meaning of this is?
01:17:32You told me there was nothing going on between you two.
01:17:35Are you trying to embarrass me on a national stage?
01:17:38No.
01:17:39Um, no.
01:17:40Ned, I am so sorry.
01:17:42Is your campaign okay?
01:17:44It's fine.
01:17:45For now.
01:17:47Luckily, this is just a mock-up.
01:17:49Post gave it to us before going to press.
01:17:51Get in.
01:17:53I am taking you home.
01:17:56Ned, I told you this project is important.
01:17:58Hallie, you build multi-billion dollar skyscrapers.
01:18:02Not whatever this is.
01:18:05This matters.
01:18:07A sad little shopping mall in a sad little town?
01:18:10Come on, Hallie.
01:18:12You're better than this.
01:18:14What's that supposed to mean?
01:18:17Being back here, it has you confused.
01:18:18You don't know what you want.
01:18:20You don't know who you really are anymore.
01:18:23But this is your past.
01:18:27I am your future.
01:18:29Remember?
01:18:31You still want to marry me?
01:18:34Even after that?
01:18:35Yes.
01:18:36In fact, I want to move the wedding up.
01:18:38Let's get married right now.
01:18:39Let's get married right now.
01:18:43Let's get married right now.
01:18:45Right now?
01:18:47Um.
01:18:49Excuse me.
01:18:53Hey.
01:18:54Seeing these photos, it made me realize how much you mean to me.
01:18:59I can't lose you, Hallie.
01:19:01I don't want to lose you.
01:19:03Please.
01:19:04Marry me.
01:19:05You're gonna marry her?
01:19:10She was cheating on you.
01:19:14Who are you?
01:19:16I'm the woman that took these photos.
01:19:19So, you admit to sabotaging a political campaign.
01:19:22What?
01:19:24No.
01:19:25Ma'am, you're lucky the senator doesn't press charges.
01:19:27Come with me.
01:19:28What? No! No! No!
01:19:30You will not win this one, Hallie!
01:19:32No! Don't touch me!
01:19:33Don't touch me!
01:19:36Ned, this all just feels a little fast.
01:19:40Yeah, but is it, Hallie?
01:19:41What are we waiting for?
01:19:45What are we waiting for?
01:19:49I don't know.
01:19:51Quit fucking around.
01:19:53And marry me already.
01:19:54What's the rush, Ned?
01:19:56The Post agreed to kill the cheating story.
01:19:58If we give them something better.
01:19:59Something like...
01:20:02A wedding, for example.
01:20:05You wanna marry me?
01:20:07For a story?
01:20:09Come on, Hallie.
01:20:11We're gonna get married anyway.
01:20:12What difference does it make?
01:20:14Was this whole thing just a publicity stunt?
01:20:18Our engagement?
01:20:20Our relationship?
01:20:21No.
01:20:22Of course not.
01:20:23I love you.
01:20:25Then what's my favorite color, Ned?
01:20:28Oh, come on, Hallie.
01:20:30My favorite flower?
01:20:34My favorite flower?
01:20:36I don't know.
01:20:37Roses?
01:20:38Does it even matter?
01:20:39It does.
01:20:42I'm sorry, Ned, but I can't marry you.
01:20:47Yes, you can.
01:20:49Because if you don't, I can make your life very difficult.
01:20:54Starting with those big city contracts you just won.
01:20:57I spent years of blood, sweat, and tears to get those contracts.
01:21:01Once I'm elected, I can make more go poof.
01:21:04I have friends in very high places, Hallie.
01:21:08No, you wouldn't dare.
01:21:09I worked my entire career for those.
01:21:12Well, then the answer is simple.
01:21:14Marry me.
01:21:16We'll lose everything.
01:21:18Come on, Hallie.
01:21:19This is not a difficult choice.
01:21:22You're hurting me.
01:21:23If you think this is pain, you haven't felt anything yet.
01:21:25Get off!
01:21:26Neither of you.
01:21:30My suit.
01:21:40My jaw.
01:21:42You broke my face.
01:21:44Good.
01:21:46Looks better that way, in my opinion.
01:21:48I have you arrested for assaulting a government official.
01:21:51There isn't a cop who will side with you over me.
01:21:54Not in this town.
01:21:57By the way, your favorite color is blue.
01:21:59And her favorite flower is the marigold, because it blooms from spring to fall.
01:22:05Well, there you go.
01:22:07I hope that suit isn't too expensive.
01:22:09This suit is worth more than you make in a year.
01:22:13Isn't that something?
01:22:15It's time for you to leave, Senator.
01:22:17Come on, Hallie.
01:22:18You're not gonna give up everything, just for some pathetic small town nobody.
01:22:23Yeah, he may be from a small town, but he is not a nobody.
01:22:29In fact, if I had to choose a son-in-law, I'd pick him over you any day of the week.
01:22:34Daddy!
01:22:36Daddy!
01:22:38Hallie, I am so sorry for everything.
01:22:41Starting with meddling in your marriage.
01:22:44Meddling?
01:22:45I'm the one that made Craig divorce.
01:22:48I told him if he really loved you, he'd let you go.
01:22:52He did.
01:22:56I thought you deserved more than a small town, more than a local boy like him.
01:23:02She does, sir.
01:23:04Come on, Hallie.
01:23:05Come on, Hallie.
01:23:07He divorced you.
01:23:08He gave up a daughter for you.
01:23:10So what if I want to marry you for a story?
01:23:13People get married for worse reasons.
01:23:15And they get divorced for better ones.
01:23:18I don't care what you think, old man.
01:23:20Hallie, you're coming with me.
01:23:22You stay away from my daughter.
01:23:24Hallie, I am not leaving.
01:23:26You owe it to me to go through this wedding.
01:23:29I've had about enough of people telling me who I should and shouldn't marry.
01:23:36Get out of here, Ned.
01:23:38It's over between us.
01:23:43Get out of here, Ned.
01:23:45It's over between us.
01:23:48Fine.
01:23:50But I hope you know what you're giving up, Hallie.
01:23:54I most certainly do.
01:24:01It was too big anyway.
01:24:02Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:24:06What about me?
01:24:07I'll marry you.
01:24:09I'm sure the Post would love to see me at a wedding gown.
01:24:13And I would look way better than Hallie ever would.
01:24:17Not in a million years.
01:24:19Oh, my gosh.
01:24:21Ew.
01:24:22Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew.
01:24:25Oh, my gosh.
01:24:26I can't see me like this.
01:24:28I owe you both an apology for trying to play God.
01:24:34Daddy.
01:24:36Hear me out.
01:24:38When I was in the hospital and hooked up to all those machines,
01:24:41I just kept having the same wonderful dream.
01:24:45This dream where you were still together.
01:24:48This dream where you were both living the life you deserve.
01:24:51I took that future and that life away from you.
01:24:57Hallie, Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:25:02Hallie, Craig never wanted to divorce you.
01:25:06How?
01:25:08This should be enough.
01:25:09I want her on that plane, alone, whatever it takes.
01:25:15I tried to pay him off.
01:25:20And this is what he did with the money.
01:25:23I've never seen someone work so hard for love.
01:25:27Is this true, Craig?
01:25:29Mm-hmm.
01:25:31Why didn't you just tell me?
01:25:33Because I didn't want you to hate your father or blame him when you just thought he was doing what was right.
01:25:40You were protecting me.
01:25:43That's right.
01:25:45You two are the only family you have left.
01:25:49Unless...
01:25:53You want me to be a part of your family again?
01:25:55Now, I know this ring isn't exactly as big as your old one.
01:26:02But, um...
01:26:04Can make me the happiest man in the world if you would marry me...
01:26:08Again?
01:26:10Yes.
01:26:12Yes, Craig, I'll marry you.
01:26:14Oh, perfect fit.
01:26:20It always was.
01:26:22Mommy, Daddy, I knew you would come back together.
01:26:26Aw, she did.
01:26:28Come on.
01:26:30Dale.
01:26:32That wasn't such a crazy dream.
01:26:33I'd like you to meet your granddaughter, Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:26:36My dream came true.
01:26:38Hi, Grandpa.
01:26:40Hallie.
01:26:42This is crazy, but if we run, we can make it to the town clerk before it closes.
01:26:46I do not want to be divorced from you in one second longer.
01:26:49Me either.
01:26:50Yeah?
01:26:51Yeah?
01:26:52Okay, what do we think?
01:26:53Who's up for a wedding?
01:26:55Yeah?
01:26:57Yeah?
01:26:58Yeah?
01:27:02Hi.
01:27:04Um, we would like to get remarried.
01:27:07I can't accept your remarriage.
01:27:10That's ridiculous.
01:27:12Uh, what? Why?
01:27:14I can't accept your remarriage.
01:27:17That's ridiculous.
01:27:18Uh, what? Why?
01:27:19Well, because you were never really divorced in the first place.
01:27:22Look right here.
01:27:24You signed your name, Hallie Bildner.
01:27:27But your name is, and always has been, Hallie Brody.
01:27:31Will you look at that?
01:27:32Wait, so, um, that means the custody papers?
01:27:38Well, that's, uh, that's void.
01:27:43So, you're still Natalie's parents.
01:27:45Oh, my God.
01:27:46Oh, my God.
01:27:47Jesus is notre pays.
01:27:48Oh, my God.
01:27:49Oh, my God.
01:27:50Oh, my God.
01:27:51Oh, my God.
01:27:53Oh, my God.
01:27:55I forgive you.
01:28:12I've got seven years to make up for it.
01:28:25I just want to thank you all for your faith in me.
01:28:31And as your new mayor, I promise to work tirelessly to bring this town back to what it once was,
01:28:37starting with the community center that Craig and Hallie so generously built.
01:28:46We love you, Maratha.
01:28:48Love you.
01:28:55What do you think, Michal?
01:29:01Looks like they've found a story to replace him with after all.
01:29:10Is there a really baby right there?
01:29:13Yes.

01:29:51This one takes me a message here.
