00:13:27This marriage, it's just a contract.

00:13:49Well, I think that the contract says that this is my room.

00:13:57Good night, husband.

00:14:17And this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain of the evening.

00:14:22The room on the left is the kitchen.

00:14:27And we have the West Wing Library and the East Wing Pool.

00:14:42How do you find anything in here?

00:14:45One of dots, madam.

00:14:46And this room is the, um...

00:15:00Oh, dear.

00:15:03Would you excuse me?

00:15:05Of course.

00:15:06Apologies.

00:15:06Oh, dear.

00:15:14I love you.

00:15:36What are you doing here?

00:16:01Oh my gosh.

00:16:07Problem?

00:16:10This is...

00:16:12a lot.

00:16:13The contract stipulates appropriate attire for all occasions.

00:16:17Including tonight's charity gala.

00:16:19I... I can't accept this.

00:16:21You can. And you will.

00:16:24Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.

00:16:31You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.

00:16:34Wouldn't dream of it.

00:16:36Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?

00:16:49Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.

00:16:51And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?

00:17:06I don't need a knife. I need a chainsaw.

00:17:08Okay.

00:17:10Jackie, there you are.

00:17:13Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.

00:17:15We simply must celebrate.

00:17:18I heard about your little stunt wedding.

00:17:21That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?

00:17:24I could think of a dozen things you could do to me.

00:17:33My God. This is a $10,000 Valentino.

00:17:37I'm sorry, but I didn't... I didn't even... do anything.

00:17:41Where did you find this one, Jackie?

00:17:43Wagstaff Training School?

00:17:44Vivian.

00:17:47Oh, that was it.

00:17:49She was actually a waitress.

00:17:51Or, I don't remember, whatever it was.

00:17:54Excuse me.

00:17:55Excuse me.

00:17:58So, what you got to have.

00:18:00Watch out for the eggs.

00:18:07So, as I was saying.

00:18:14Hmm.

00:18:15Hmm.

00:18:31You know, you should really come over here and taste this.

00:18:45Wow.

00:18:59Good?

00:19:00Surprisingly good.

00:19:02Surprisingly good.

00:19:05Payment for spying.

00:19:08Payment accepted.

00:19:10You know, the house this grand, I would expect...

00:19:15the kitchen to match.

00:19:19I had to make do.

00:19:21No, I never cook.

00:19:23Hmm.

00:19:24It's a shame.

00:19:33You can go now.

00:19:45You, um...

00:19:51wanted to see me.

00:19:53Time for your first lesson.

00:19:55My what?

00:20:01Self-defense.

00:20:03Never know when you might need it.

00:20:05I don't know if that's...

00:20:06Number one.

00:20:07Stance.

00:20:09Move the feet apart.

00:20:11Bend this knee.

00:20:13Yeah.

00:20:14Then move this foot forward.

00:20:16Good.

00:20:18Okay.

00:20:20Now, hands up.

00:20:21Protect the face.

00:20:23Okay.

00:20:25Now, like this.

00:20:27Oh, I'm sorry.

00:20:29I'm not really good at this.

00:20:35We're just getting started.

00:20:37Oh.

00:20:39Maybe we should just focus on business.

00:20:43Rule number one.

00:20:45Stance.

00:20:47Right?

00:20:48Right?

00:20:49Every chef needs proper tools.

00:21:19I have a business expense.

00:21:24Business expense.

00:21:27These are the best knives in the market.

00:21:30The best knives are the best chef.

00:21:35Why are you doing this?

00:21:37The contract.

00:21:38No.

00:21:40The real reason.

00:21:42Maybe I just like watching you work.

00:21:47Maybe.

00:21:50You just like watching me.

00:21:55You know that, um, this doesn't change anything.

00:22:00Of course not.

00:22:07This is for your mother.

00:22:08No, this is too much.

00:22:15You should cover the whole thing.

00:22:19Please, I can do it.

00:22:20I think that's literally the nicest thing a man has ever done for me.

00:22:27What's the catch?

00:22:28We've got a problem.

00:22:42Morning to you, too.

00:22:43So, the inheritance release date is set, but...

00:22:46If anyone finds out about the marriage, then...

00:22:48No one's gonna find out.

00:22:49Oh, really?

00:22:50Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town.

00:22:53It's under control.

00:22:54Is it?

00:22:57It seems like you're letting your feelings control all your...

00:23:00I said it's handled.

00:23:12Just remember what's at stake here, yeah?

00:23:15This Morrison deal...

00:23:17Is a deal of a lifetime.

00:23:21Don't tell me you're actually fooling me.

00:23:23Don't tell me you're trying to get out.

00:23:53Don't tell me you're actually...

00:23:53I don't know yet.

00:23:54Don't tell me you're trying to get out.

00:23:57Later.

00:24:17Bye-bye.

00:24:18Bye-bye.

00:24:19Bye-bye.

00:24:20Bye-bye.

00:24:21Bye-bye.

00:24:52Oh, no.

00:24:59God.

00:25:13Jack, darling.

00:25:15Bounty seeing you here.

00:25:16Vivian?

00:25:17The 82 crystal.

00:25:19Remember the crystal, Jack?

00:25:22I can still feel it running down my back just thinking about it.

00:25:26We even used to drink some of it.

00:25:28Anyway, we have business to discuss.

00:25:30You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.

00:25:35Oh, I'm so sorry.

00:25:38This must be so boring for you.

00:25:40Oh, you're so insightful, Vivian.

00:25:43You do boring me.

00:25:45Darling, the adults have business to discuss.

00:25:48Why don't you go back to, like, chopping or whatever it is that you do?

00:25:52So, basically, you know, the company way that we have our investments holding in.

00:25:56I had a business meeting with Hannah today, and she has basically advised me to say that

00:26:00our investments are not making any profit, because me and self isn't actually doing all

00:26:04too well.

00:26:05So, my proposal for next year would be basically...

00:26:07Why the whirlwind romance you've got there?

00:26:26What's the catch?

00:26:29There's always a catch.

00:26:31Excuse me, I...

00:26:33Rebecca Chen.

00:26:34Social pages.

00:26:35Two days from first meeting to marriage.

00:26:39This must be some kind of record.

00:26:41Though lately I've been more interested in, uh, business deals.

00:26:45Hmm.

00:26:46What would you say?

00:26:47Love at first sight, or something more contractual?

00:26:53You know, you should really write romance novels.

00:26:56Seems you have quite the imagination.

00:27:03We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.

00:27:05I have a feeling there's quite a story here.

00:27:07Oh, the Morrison Foundation dinners tonight.

00:27:18Oh, great.

00:27:19Another dinner.

00:27:21It's important.

00:27:22They're all important.

00:27:23It's a part of the deal.

00:27:25They're all a part of the deal.

00:27:28You knew what you were signing up for.

00:27:30Did I?

00:27:31Did I?

00:27:34At least Vivian will be there to talk.

00:27:36Deals, and acquisitions, and mergers, and...

00:27:41Okay, whatever.

00:27:53Nice.

00:27:55Real mature.

00:27:58No, don't.

00:28:00Fuck!

00:28:02Okay.

00:28:04Okay, fine.

00:28:05You wanna go?

00:28:07Nope.

00:28:08No, no, wait.

00:28:15Okay.

00:28:16Yeah?

00:28:17No, no, no, no.

00:28:18No, no, no, no, no.

00:28:19Let go!

00:28:21No!

00:28:22No!

00:28:24Ow!

00:28:27No!

00:28:28Yeah.

00:28:58So, Jack's inheritance is all set, but he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the proceeds to the Morrison deal.

00:29:08That's the problem.

00:29:10Hmm. It's the girl, isn't it? The waitress.

00:29:14You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.

00:29:17And I thought you had everything under control.

00:29:18Oh, I've done my part.

00:29:21That's underway. And I thought you'd have your part under control.

00:29:24I have everything under control.

00:29:29Oh, really? Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian.

00:29:31You know, maybe I overestimated your sway over, Jack.

00:29:35You haven't overestimated anything. I've just begun.

00:29:42I've got it.

00:29:43Hmm. Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.

00:29:58I live here.

00:30:00Of course you do.

00:30:03Okay, thanks.

00:30:06Jack, darling, should we proceed to the study?

00:30:09We need to discuss the Morrison deal.

00:30:12Yeah.

00:30:13Yeah.

00:30:16Oh, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.

00:30:24Vivian?

00:30:27Remember Tokyo?

00:30:29That Zaki bar?

00:30:31I'm married.

00:30:31Oh, you know.

00:30:36I hadn't noticed.

00:30:38Uh-oh.

00:30:39You know that feeling when you leave the house

00:30:42and you just feel like you've forgotten something?

00:30:55I forgot something.

00:30:57Maybe you can help me figure it out.

00:31:06Coffee?

00:31:08Oh, no thank you.

00:31:10Jack and I have much to catch up on.

00:31:13Oh, and Jack doesn't drink coffee.

00:31:16Do you, Jack?

00:31:18Actually, I've taken it up recently.

00:31:19I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it.

00:31:23And he just absolutely laps up every drop of my coffee.

00:31:32Isn't that right?

00:31:34Lily makes a great cup of coffee.

00:31:41So, how's Vivian?

00:31:46Focus on your form.

00:31:47You know, I was just wondering.

00:31:50How long the two of you...

00:31:51Ancient history.

00:31:53That's not what I heard.

00:31:55From who?

00:31:57Around.

00:31:59Tokyo gets brought up a lot.

00:32:01You've been talking to Warren.

00:32:03You've been talking to Vivian.

00:32:06That's business.

00:32:08Everything is business with you, isn't it?

00:32:12But you know what?

00:32:13What's this?

00:32:19Some pretty big business.

00:32:21That you haven't been sharing with me.

00:32:24I think Vivian wants some of it, too.

00:32:27But you know what?

00:32:30Maybe you should just keep your business to yourself.

00:32:34Sad.

00:32:36Watch your stance.

00:32:37I don't want to be lied to.

00:32:44I'm not lying, Lily.

00:32:48Don't break my heart.

00:32:52Yeah.

00:32:52I don't want to be lied to.

00:33:05Don't.

00:33:10Oh, god.

00:33:15Oh, god.

00:33:18Oh, god.

00:33:19Oh, god.

00:33:20Oh, god.

00:33:20Please act like you know me. There's someone following me.

00:33:31Oh my god, are you okay? Who's following you?

00:33:35That weirdo?

00:33:42Is he gone? I think he's gone.

00:33:50You're sure?

00:34:00Like this?

00:34:04I think your technique could use some more.

00:34:07They got the dota rides.

00:34:11Sure that wasn't me?

00:34:20What?

00:34:37Of course. And I think the real challenge is market penetration and emerging economies.

00:34:43I'm sure Jack's brought you up to speed on all of this.

00:34:47Um, actually, I...

00:34:49Tell me, what's your take on blockchain integration?

00:34:52Um, I think...

00:34:55Oh, no comment. How surprising.

00:34:58Excuse me.

00:35:00Great thinking, Lily. All of our drinks could use with a refill.

00:35:04Love you.

00:35:23Love you.

00:35:27But this thing isn't going to last forever, Jack

00:35:37I don't know

00:35:39I mean, what choice do you have?

00:35:42Clock's ticking, buddy

00:35:43Unless you want to lose this deal forever

00:35:46Lunch?

00:35:52I was just on my way out

00:35:57Think about it, Jack

00:35:57What was that about?

00:36:08Nothing, just business

00:36:09Just business, of course

00:36:12Lily, wait

00:36:14What do you want, Jack?

00:36:27Taking you on a holiday

00:36:42What?

00:36:43You have time for that?

00:36:46A lot of time

00:36:47Just us?

00:36:50I know what I want

00:36:51Oh, what about, um

00:36:56What about Warren and the deal?

00:37:00I can wait

00:37:00There she is

00:37:04What?

00:37:06That smile

00:37:07It's the one you had when I first laid ass on you

00:37:10I'll never forget it

00:37:13You know that I don't just, um

00:37:15Serve that dish to anyone, right?

00:37:18Really?

00:37:19Mm-hmm

00:37:20I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Thorne

00:37:26I've been told to relay that there's a problem in the back of the office

00:37:29Timeline on the deal has moved up

00:37:32Save

00:37:32Thank you

00:37:33Would you like me to cancel the trip, sir?

00:37:39Yeah

00:37:39Very good

00:37:41Who sent the message?

00:37:45Vivian Chase

00:37:46Lily, I'm sorry

00:37:52Don't

00:37:52Please

00:37:53It's just

00:37:53It's business, yeah

00:37:55I get it

00:37:56Lily, I shouldn't, uh

00:38:07Just shut up and

00:38:09Taste this

00:38:10Mmm

00:38:20It's taste, uh

00:38:21Incredible?

00:38:22Yeah

00:38:22Yeah, I know

00:38:23Jack

00:38:29Mm-hmm

00:38:29Do you want more?

00:38:33Um, after this one

00:38:34No

00:38:34At the food

00:38:37Jack

00:38:39Talking about us

00:38:42How long are we going to keep on doing this?

00:38:49Oh my god

00:39:04What was that?

00:39:15Any enemies?

00:39:17Business rivals?

00:39:17No one comes to mind

00:39:20Security cameras?

00:39:24Being installed as we speak

00:39:26Mrs. Thorne?

00:39:38Sorry

00:39:39It's all I saw

00:39:41I'm worried

00:39:46You okay?

00:39:49Yeah

00:39:50Thank you

00:39:58Yeah

00:39:59This is so insane

00:40:05It's probably just kids

00:40:08Kids?

00:40:10Seriously

00:40:10Can you keep your voice down?

00:40:13Oh, sorry

00:40:13What are you afraid

00:40:16That someone's going to hear

00:40:17About our perfect marriage?

00:40:26What are you hiding from me?

00:40:31Hey

00:40:31Hey, you know that secret room

00:40:35That you didn't want me to find?

00:40:37I found it

00:40:40I found it

00:40:41Yeah

00:40:43Hey, at least it's honest

00:40:49Do you want to see it?

00:40:56Show me

00:40:57Most people run

00:41:00Most people run

00:41:25I'm not most people

00:41:28So

00:41:32This is what you're into?

00:41:37Among other things

00:41:38And all of those

00:41:40Specific requirements

00:41:44We're about to scare you off

00:41:46I don't scare you

00:41:47I'm starting to get that

00:41:50Show me

00:41:56You sure?

00:42:00Are you?

00:42:17So

00:42:30So

00:42:39So

00:42:43Sir, Miss Chase is here

00:42:50She says it's urgent

00:42:52Jack, the team is flying to Tokyo and they need you there

00:42:55Final deal points

00:42:56Jack's leaving in 30

00:42:58I packed your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs

00:43:00Lily, wait

00:43:03Just go

00:43:13Lily, I can explain

00:43:40Can you?

00:43:43Guess them business can't wait

00:43:48This whole thing is

00:43:57Let me get this straight

00:43:59You sleep with him

00:44:01And then you find a note from his ex

00:44:03That's complicated

00:44:05When isn't it with you?

00:44:07Look, maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little

00:44:11What, a mistake?

00:44:11That you were right?

00:44:14Huh?

00:44:14Is that what you want to hear?

00:44:16No, I want you to be happy

00:44:18And are you?

00:44:22I don't know what I am anymore

00:44:23I mean, he paid for mom's operation, so that's cool, but I...

00:44:27I know

00:44:28And the worst part is I think I might actually be falling for it

00:44:31Lily?

00:44:38Stand back

00:44:39What?

00:44:40Stand back, Megan

00:44:41Get down with the fucker

00:44:53Fuck that

00:44:54Oh my god

00:44:55Fuck you

00:44:57Come on, let's go

00:44:59What was that?

00:45:06Lessons with Jack

00:45:08Jack taught you that?

00:45:10Yeah

00:45:11Yeah

00:45:12Dude's getting better by a minute

00:45:14I know

00:45:14Oh man

00:45:16You okay?

00:45:20Yeah

00:45:21God, things are supposed to be so simple

00:45:24Now what?

00:45:27I don't even know what's real anymore

00:45:29How long are you?

00:45:32Again

00:45:32He always keeps the ledger on his desk

00:46:02Lauren, I've known you since college

00:46:16How could you?

00:46:2311 months

00:46:24Almost a year

00:46:26I barely knew the best anymore

00:46:29Lily, I need to tell you something

00:46:42I'm all ears

00:46:44It's about the deal

00:46:46About Warren

00:46:47Vivian

00:46:48Well

00:46:49If it isn't the happy couple

00:46:51Oh great

00:46:53The press

00:46:54These aren't real

00:47:05Oh my sisters say

00:47:07They're very real

00:47:08Story runs in 48 hours

00:47:11Lily, this is what I was just about to tell you

00:47:13I've been set up

00:47:14Care to comment, Mrs. Thorne?

00:47:18You know, it's funny

00:47:21I

00:47:21For a minute

00:47:23I really believed

00:47:25Lily, wait

00:47:27They're not real

00:47:30Take talk, Mr. Thorne

00:47:32Louie, wait

00:47:44They're not real

00:47:47You have to believe me

00:47:49Like I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal

00:47:52Like I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague

00:47:56Like I believed that last night actually meant something

00:48:01It did

00:48:02Lily, what happened between us was

00:48:04The transaction

00:48:05That's all any of this ever was

00:48:09That's not true

00:48:11And you know it

00:48:12Do I?

00:48:15Because from where I'm standing

00:48:17You got everything that you wanted

00:48:19You got a wife when you needed one

00:48:21And a body when you wanted one

00:48:23No, wait, that's not it

00:48:25Tell me I'm wrong

00:48:26Tell me that there's not something more going on here

00:48:28With the business deal

00:48:30And your inheritance

00:48:31Anything more to explain?

00:48:41Somebody thought

00:48:42You're a terrible person

00:48:47If you leave now, you violate the contract

00:48:51You get nothing

00:48:52I don't care

00:48:55I never cared about any of that

00:48:59Hands up

00:49:18Protect the face

00:49:20No, don't

00:49:22Go?

00:49:25Nope

00:49:25Warren?

00:49:35Finally, look

00:49:36About the Morrison deal

00:49:38It's off

00:49:38What do you mean it's off?

00:49:41All of it

00:49:41The deal

00:49:42The inheritance

00:49:44I don't want any of it

00:49:45Have you lost your freaking mind?

00:49:47I mean, everything that we've worked for

00:49:49Actually

00:49:50Actually

00:49:50I think I found it

00:49:54I think I found it

00:49:54Ivanka

00:49:56I know

00:49:58I know

00:49:59I think I know

00:50:00Therefore, I don't understand

00:50:00You're a bad guy

00:50:02I don't understand

00:50:03I think I did

00:50:04You miss

00:50:04IМ

00:50:05I don't know

00:50:07I think I'm fine

00:50:08You're a terrible guy

00:50:09What do you mean it's off?

00:50:09It can't tell

00:50:10You're a terrible guy

00:50:12Of course

00:50:13Similar

00:50:13You're asking

00:50:15You're in Puerto Rico

00:50:15You're another

00:50:16You're wondering

00:50:17You're in a fast alarm

00:50:18How do I

00:50:19You can't just hide here forever.

00:50:29Watch me.

00:50:41Hey.

00:50:42What happened to the girl who would never back down?

00:50:46The one who quit her job because she didn't want to compromise?

00:50:50Played.

00:50:50Did she?

00:50:56That's Jack.

00:50:57I'm sure that's just my oxygenarian neighbor who's a total drama queen.

00:51:01Watch.

00:51:03Gladys?

00:51:06Gladys, is that you?

00:51:08Do you need help with your phone?

00:51:16Sir.

00:51:17Coffee.

00:51:19I did some digging around like you asked, sir.

00:51:23You might want to see this.

00:51:29What am I looking at here?

00:51:30Wire transfers, shell companies, all leading back to Mr. Block.

00:51:35More.

00:51:37I knew it.

00:51:38And you might want to see these too, sir.

00:51:39They'll illuminate things even more.

00:51:41Son of a bitch.

00:51:47He's trying to steal the inheritance.

00:51:49He sure is.

00:51:50All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies.

00:51:55Although I suspect Ms. Chase's interests are not purely financial.

00:51:59They're threatening Lillian and her sister.

00:52:14Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game.

00:52:18Give me everything you can about Warren.

00:52:19Every meeting, every call.

00:52:20I already compiled, sir.

00:52:22I had a feeling we might need this.

00:52:23Sir, what about the inheritance?

00:52:24Some things are worth more than money.

00:52:40I'm coming back, Megan.

00:52:41I'm coming back, Megan.

00:53:11I got us under this.

00:53:32I can get us out of this.

00:53:34I can do this.

00:53:35I can do this.

00:53:37Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.

00:53:41And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.

00:53:45If anything happens to her, that's up to you.

00:53:49Sign the papers.

00:53:52And this all goes away.

00:53:55Like those photos of you and me from that reporter suddenly went away.

00:54:02Deepfakes really do hurt everyone involved.

00:54:05Don't they?

00:54:06I always knew you were soft.

00:54:07I always knew you were soft.

00:54:08But this?

00:54:10Throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef.

00:54:13He's not throwing it away.

00:54:15He's giving it to us.

00:54:17All we need is a signature, Jack.

00:54:22You care too much, Jackie boy.

00:54:25Always have.

00:54:29I think we might need to send a little message.

00:54:32Hmm.

00:54:32Let me go, you psycho.

00:55:00Remember your training.

00:55:01Protect your face.

00:55:08Megan!

00:55:09Lenny!

00:55:13Welcome to the party, sweetheart.

00:55:16Please, come on.

00:55:18Come on.

00:55:23Of course it's a trap.

00:55:26The question is...

00:55:27What are you going to do about it?

00:55:31Lily!

00:55:34I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.

00:55:37Room 115.

00:55:39Lawrence, call the police.

00:55:40Already done.

00:55:41But, sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.

00:55:44She doesn't have 20 minutes.

00:55:51No, no, no, no, no.

00:55:54Lawrence, she's there.

00:55:55Lily's there.

00:55:56Hold on, Lily.

00:56:01Hold on.

00:56:02Hold on.

00:56:15Leave her alone!

00:56:17Shut up!

00:56:17Get away from my wife.

00:56:21Well, well.

00:56:23A hero arrives.

00:56:26Don't do it, Jackie boy.

00:56:27I'm not some damsel in distress.

00:56:33That's my girl.

00:56:34Oh.

00:56:41Oh.

00:56:43I guess it is real love, huh?

00:56:45That's for my sister, you son of a bitch.

00:57:03Louie.

00:57:05Not everything.

00:57:06The photos.

00:57:08Vivian.

00:57:08Now?

00:57:09Now?

00:57:10Seriously?

00:57:11I love you.

00:57:13Not for any inheritance.

00:57:15Not for any deal.

00:57:17Just...

00:57:19You.

00:57:21I know.

00:57:22You.

00:57:31Stay right there.

00:57:33Come on.

00:57:33Cuff him.

00:57:34What the hell?

00:57:49This isn't...

00:57:50Possible.

00:57:50And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.

00:57:56Sign the papers.

00:57:57Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved.

00:58:00That proves nothing.

00:58:01I think it might prove something.

00:58:03Yeah, and those photos that you planted?

00:58:05Maybe use better AI next time.

00:58:07You can't?

00:58:08Yes, they can.

00:58:10And...

00:58:10You two are under arrest.

00:58:14You'll regret this, Jack.

00:58:15The inheritance, the...

00:58:16Are nothing.

00:58:17Compared to what I almost lost.

00:58:19You pit upon it all, Jack.

00:58:23I do.

00:58:30Yes, thank you.

00:58:32Thanks.

00:58:32Now, that's the story.

00:58:42Here to twist the knife?

00:58:44Actually...

00:58:45I'm here to get it right.

00:58:48Where did you...

00:58:49Lawrence sends his regards.

00:58:52Seems your butler is a little armchair investigative journalist.

00:58:55So, no scandal piece?

00:58:58Oh, there's definitely a scandal.

00:59:00But...

00:59:02Not the one they wanted me to bite on.

00:59:07That's...

00:59:08Actually accurate.

00:59:09I'm a reporter.

00:59:11Truth is kind of my thing.

00:59:13Though, I must admit,

00:59:14I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.

00:59:17Yeah, neither did they.

00:59:20Story runs tomorrow.

00:59:22Catch you on the next scandal.

00:59:23Only about the inheritance.

00:59:33You really think that I care about any of that now?

00:59:40Just take me home.

00:59:43Yes, dear.

00:59:43Sun's coming, huh?

00:59:54Must be a new record.

00:59:57It is for me.

00:59:59Any regrets?

01:00:01Only one.

01:00:04That I didn't get your chef's special sooner.

01:00:07Could have saved us last time.

01:00:08Yeah.

01:00:09How?

01:00:10Excuse me, sir.

01:00:14Miss Chen's article is out.

01:00:17How bad is it?

01:00:18Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.

01:00:21She's included the last bit you wanted to put in.

01:00:23Jack Thorne announced plans.

01:00:38In a shocking turn of events,

01:00:39tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans

01:00:41to transform his inherited fortune

01:00:43into the city's largest culinary grant program.

01:00:48Surprised?

01:00:48But your inheritance is gone.

01:00:54Well, the inheritance, yeah.

01:00:56But turns out selling a tech company

01:00:58can be quite profitable.

01:00:59You sold the company?

01:01:01Turns out some things are worth more than money.

01:01:11My turn.

01:01:12Ow!

01:01:13Ow!

01:01:19Perfect, Julie and Danny.

01:01:20Keep it thin, okay?

01:01:21Just like that.

01:01:37This looks good on you.

01:01:40And who said there's no such thing

01:01:41as a happily ever after?

01:01:44Suckers.

01:01:45Can I get you your usual, sir?

01:01:48It depends.

01:01:50Did my wife make it?

01:01:51The very same wife that you married for business?

01:01:54Best business decision I ever made.

01:02:02Hang on.

01:02:10Voila.

01:02:15You have the best chef in town.

01:02:17You're only saying that

01:02:19because you're contractually obligated.

01:02:23I think that contract expired.

01:02:26Good thing I signed a new one.

01:02:34We are gathered here today...

01:02:36No more business deals this time.

01:02:38Just love.

01:02:39Good.

01:02:41Because I have some terms of my own.

01:02:43First...

01:02:44You have to eat everything I cooked.

01:02:49Done.

01:02:50Second...

01:02:51No more locked rooms.

01:02:55Without me in it.

01:02:58Is that all?

01:03:00Third...

01:03:01You have to mean it this time.

01:03:04I meant it the first time.

01:03:06Just didn't know it yet.

01:03:07The rings?

01:03:09The rings?

01:03:10Actually...

01:03:14Is that...

01:03:17Something old.

01:03:18Something new.

01:03:20Something borrowed.

01:03:21Something...

01:03:24Not one.

01:03:25For better or worse.

01:03:34For real this time.

01:03:38You may kiss the bride.

01:03:39So...

01:03:55Are you ready for your honeymoon?

01:03:59What are you...

01:04:00Lauren told me back.

01:04:04Mrs. Thorne, are you trying to negotiate new business terms?

01:04:13I don't know.

01:04:15Mr. Thorne.

01:04:19Can you handle them?

01:04:21I thought this wasn't about business anymore.

01:04:24How about you just shut up...

01:04:27And kiss your wife?

01:04:28Yes.

01:04:29Yes.

01:04:30Yes.

01:04:31Yes.

01:04:58You're welcome.

01:05:00Yes.

01:05:01It's an Eye.
