00:05:24good idea

00:05:49quickly sir we don't want to be late

00:06:19congrats

00:06:25when will he arrive

00:06:32oh don't worry alice

00:06:34it must be a traffic jam

00:06:37what

00:06:38come back now

00:06:40don't you know today's your wedding

00:06:42my flight to australia is leaving in 10 minutes

00:06:44and i already signed the contract papers

00:06:46you got what you wanted dad

00:06:48goodbye

00:06:49so pathetic

00:06:54i heard the bride's father recently passed away

00:06:57and she's marrying him just to save her family financially

00:07:00the groom probably figured out her tricks and ran away

00:07:03who wants to marry a gold digger anyway

00:07:05you said you never beat your wife mr carter

00:07:19let's welcome our investigator miss alice smith then

00:07:23these are just some of the graphic images of my client after a particularly hostile exchange

00:07:50with the defendant

00:07:51and might i add mr carter

00:07:53that your bedroom window opens up into the living room of your neighbor's house

00:07:57who just so happens to be

00:07:59a photographer

00:08:00i would consider my career and reputation

00:08:08if i were you mr carter

00:08:10henry

00:08:22you know any marriage investigators in the city

00:08:25why an investigator

00:08:26i thought you were going to find a lawyer

00:08:28directly

00:08:28we're going to need some proof first

00:08:30you know these cases don't tend to swing in favor of the husbands

00:08:33not to mention if that woman gets greedy

00:08:35and tries to take everything from us

00:08:37that make sense

00:08:38well i heard the best investigator here is a young lady named alice smith

00:08:42this is alice smith

00:08:50what the hell's going on

00:09:03well sorry lady but you stopped all of a sudden

00:09:32maybe you'll like her

00:09:34that's not the last thing i want to be doing

00:09:36well how do you know

00:09:38because i'm not interested in meeting someone who uses marriage as a tool

00:09:42are you sure that's what she's doing

00:09:45is there any other reason that a woman would marry somebody that they don't even know

00:09:50makes sense

00:19:07Alice.

00:19:09You look, uh, ravishing tonight.

00:19:12What the hell, Tom?

00:19:17What the hell, Tom?

00:19:19Alice, how dare you seduce my husband?

00:19:22What are you talking about?

00:19:25How can someone like you attend such a high-class event anyway?

00:19:30Well, Linda, if someone like you can be here, I can definitely be here.

00:19:36I heard your husband left the country four years ago just to get away from you.

00:19:42How horrible is that?

00:19:45Actually, she's my wife.

00:19:50And I don't allow anyone to talk to my wife like that.

00:19:53You aren't?

00:19:54Show some respect or I'm going to call security.

00:19:57We all know Alice's husband led the country four years ago just to get away from her.

00:20:02Yeah, well, he's back now.

00:20:07Tom, the CEO of Legend Group would like to meet with you at tonight's gala.

00:20:11I just got a call and tonight I'm meeting a very important contact.

00:20:18Really, honey?

00:20:20Let's go.

00:20:21Let's not waste time on these low-class people.

00:20:33Thanks.

00:20:34Sure.

00:20:42All right, ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for tonight's main event.

00:20:47Tonight's winner who donates the most will receive a special collaboration opportunity

00:20:52with our sponsor, Legend Group.

00:20:55I heard the value of the collaboration is worth more than the top donation amount last year.

00:21:02So let's get it.

00:21:04I'll donate $10 million.

00:21:06$10 million.

00:21:08$50 million.

00:21:10$50 million.

00:21:11$60 million.

00:21:13$60 million.

00:21:14$100 million.

00:21:17$100 million.

00:21:19Going once.

00:21:21Going through.

00:21:22Oh, wow.

00:21:23It seems that a mysterious donor by the name of Alice just donated $200 million.

00:21:33It wasn't me.

00:21:34It's just a coincidence, right?

00:21:40Alice?

00:21:42Alice?

00:21:44There is no way that the Alice who donated is this same Alice.

00:21:48Where would she get all that money, huh?

00:21:50Tell me.

00:21:51Max?

00:21:52Are you guys trying to pull here?

00:21:54What are you doing to my boss?

00:21:56Henry?

00:21:57Your boss?

00:21:58This is Max, the CEO of Legend Group.

00:22:01He's the important person I was going to introduce you to tonight.

00:22:04What?

00:22:05Get better, Alice.

00:22:06Get better, Alice.

00:22:20Mom?

00:22:21Will you send me my wife's number?

00:22:22I'm confused.

00:22:23Oh, my head.

00:22:24Yeah, I think I have low blood sugar.

00:22:25Hey.

00:22:26Hey.

00:22:27Have something to eat.

00:22:28It's going to make you feel better.

00:22:29Oh.

00:22:31You know, I noticed that your husband didn't show up yet.

00:22:32How was your relationship with him, if you don't mind me asking?

00:22:36Actually, I do mind.

00:22:37I don't really want to talk about him.

00:22:38You know, how was your relationship with him, if you don't mind me asking?

00:22:39Actually, I do mind.

00:22:40I don't really want to talk about him.

00:22:41I understand.

00:22:42I understand.

00:22:43Oh, I know.

00:22:44I don't know.

00:22:45I really do mind.

00:22:47You know?

00:22:48I'm stressed.

00:22:50I'm stressed, I didn't even ask you.

00:22:51You know, I've stuck in it.

00:22:52You know, I've got a break-up, but I have to do the job.

00:22:55The next deal is family.

00:22:56You've got a break-up call tonight.

00:22:57I know I'm sorry I want to talk to you.

00:22:58You know, I've got a break-up call tonight.

00:22:59And I've brought a break-up call tonight.

00:23:00You know, I've got a break-up call tonight.

00:23:01That's fine.

00:23:02I was Swan School, now, I know.

00:23:03You don't need to go get up on the roll.

00:23:04You're talking about it.

00:23:05You know, I know that your husband didn't show up yet.

00:23:07I understand.

00:23:23Hello?

00:23:28Hello?

00:23:31Who is this?

00:23:32Where's my wife?

00:23:33Hello?

00:23:34Who am I speaking to?

00:23:36Yes, I'm fine.

00:23:38I'll be okay.

00:23:40I just need to rest.

00:23:42Hello?

00:23:43She's probably speaking to her husband now.

00:23:45Hello?

00:23:46But I shouldn't inquire.

00:23:47Besides, I have my own problems to deal with.

00:23:49I love you too.

00:23:50Okay.

00:23:51Bye.

00:24:00Max, I checked the donation details.

00:24:04It's your wife who made the donation.

00:24:06Hmm.

00:24:07I see.

00:24:08I guess it can't be Alice Smith.

00:24:10There's no way she'd be able to afford it.

00:24:12Well, you know, there is another woman at the law firm named Allie.

00:24:15One of their high profile lawyers.

00:24:17I can look into her instead.

00:24:19Yeah.

00:24:20Yeah, go do that.

00:24:25Who is that, babe?

00:24:26I don't know.

00:24:27Probably one of Alice's clients.

00:24:28I'm surprised she hasn't realized yet because she left her work phone in your office.

00:24:32Okay.

00:24:33Forget about her.

00:24:34Steven, you said you would divorce your wife by now.

00:24:37How long are you going to keep me waiting?

00:24:39Okay, okay.

00:24:40I'll settle things with her tonight.

00:24:41Hello?

00:24:42Hey.

00:24:43Well, we haven't seen each other in four years.

00:24:44I bet we can get a divorce.

00:24:45How about I give you ten million dollars?

00:24:46Is this Alice's husband?

00:24:48The one she's never even met?

00:24:49Wow, he's rich.

00:24:50Let me see what I can get out of this.

00:24:54What?

00:24:55Oh, okay.

00:24:57I understand.

00:24:58Yes.

00:24:59You're right.

00:25:00It is.

00:25:01No, no.

00:25:02No, no.

00:25:03No, no, no, no.

00:25:04No, no.

00:25:05No, no.

00:25:06No ...

00:25:07No, no.

00:25:09No, no, no, no.

00:25:10No, no, no.

00:25:12No, no.

00:25:13No, no, no, no.

00:25:15And why don't we meet and talk?

00:25:17Good. I've got a place in mind.

00:25:27Would you believe it, Alice?

00:25:29I thought my wife is cheating on me.

00:25:32I need to go and sort this out.

00:25:34Would you come with me?

00:25:35Yeah, sure.

00:25:37But don't say too much, okay?

00:25:40Let's remember, let her speak first.

00:25:45Allie?

00:25:58Oh, so I guess you're investigating me now.

00:26:01Wait, you two know each other?

00:26:03Yeah, we work at the same law firm.

00:26:12What are you looking at?

00:26:13Is that limited edition?

00:26:16I think I saw it in a magazine.

00:26:19Let's get to the point.

00:26:21I don't want a divorce unless you pay me enough.

00:26:24Okay, well, is 10 million enough?

00:26:26That's not even enough to pay for your watch.

00:26:31Okay.

00:26:32How much is enough?

00:26:36Let me think.

00:26:37Okay.

00:26:43Okay, while you're thinking about that, why don't you go figure out a number, and then you can come back.

00:26:49For now, I need to talk with Alice.

00:26:53Okay.

00:26:54Max, I'm really sorry that you're going through this.

00:27:08I mean, Allie is clearly using your own emotions to extort you.

00:27:13Well, you know, it's like you said, Alice.

00:27:15An unhappy marriage is a grave.

00:27:19I'm just really happy that you're here.

00:27:21Thanks.

00:27:21Of course.

00:27:23Actually, I got you something.

00:27:30Wow.

00:27:37Max, I can't accept this.

00:27:38This is too nice.

00:27:41No, no.

00:27:42Please, I insist, okay?

00:27:44It's just a gift from a friend.

00:27:47Thanks.

00:27:48Thanks.

00:27:51Oh, Alice.

00:28:00This is Mr. Roberts.

00:28:02He's the manager of the cafe.

00:28:03Mr. Roberts, Alice, she's been a great help to me lately.

00:28:05Hello, Alice.

00:28:06Lovely to meet you.

00:28:07Sorry, I actually have to take this.

00:28:11What a strange way for Max to introduce his wife.

00:28:14Would you like to order now, Mr. Brown, or should we wait for your wife?

00:28:17Please.

00:28:18Not just any woman is my wife.

00:28:19Oh, I see.

00:28:21They must have had a fight.

00:28:22Perhaps it was something to do with that other woman.

00:28:24Very well.

00:28:25I shall await for the lady.

00:28:29Hey, Emma.

00:28:30Alice, did Max call you?

00:28:32He said he's been trying to reach you.

00:28:34No, he hasn't called, actually.

00:28:37Oh, you know what?

00:28:38I think I gave you my work phone number.

00:28:40I don't check that one as often.

00:28:42Oh, that's a relief.

00:28:43I was worried.

00:28:45Emma, can you send me Max's number again?

00:28:47Okay.

00:28:48Great.

00:28:49Thanks.

00:28:49Okay, Mom.

00:28:57Hi.

00:28:58I'm going through with the divorce.

00:28:59Please, I think that woman's a gold digger.

00:29:01No way!

00:29:02She's not that kind of woman.

00:29:03Are you meeting with someone new?

00:29:08Yes.

00:29:09Yes, actually I am.

00:29:10And she's kind.

00:29:12She's got this grace about her.

00:29:15Sorry, I gotta go.

00:29:16Mom, I'll call you later.

00:29:19I didn't mean for you to overhear that.

00:29:23Sorry, I didn't realize you weren't there.

00:29:26That's okay.

00:29:27I'm glad you think so highly of me.

00:29:31I do.

00:29:33I mean, I really do.

00:29:49There's you.

00:29:57So, Cousin Max, you have got to tell me all about what you've been up to down under.

00:30:03Huh?

00:30:03A little thunder from down under, I expect.

00:30:06Well, it isn't a short story I could tell you that much, Mike.

00:30:11But first, since when did you get back from the UK?

00:30:15Oh, I just got back.

00:30:18Right after my parents divorced.

00:30:20It's a little sort of...

00:30:22Sorry, boss.

00:30:23It's time to go.

00:30:33Why give a shit about him?

00:30:36Remember how his dad tried to steal power from your father?

00:30:39Yeah, but at the end of the day, we're all family.

00:30:40I heard it was all his idea, and he's the one who controls his father.

00:30:45Be careful.

00:30:48Henry, don't worry about it.

00:30:51Okay?

00:30:52What's the worst thing you could do?

00:31:08Max, it's Alice.

00:31:09Can we talk?

00:31:10Alice?

00:31:12Max's wife?

00:31:14It's about us.

00:31:15Emma said that we should talk.

00:31:19Yes.

00:31:20I have been looking forward to seeing you two.

00:31:26It's about us.

00:31:28Emma said that we should talk.

00:31:31I have been looking forward to seeing you two.

00:31:34Really?

00:31:35I thought you'd hate to see me.

00:31:36No.

00:31:37No way.

00:31:38Say, why don't we meet up sometime next week?

00:31:43Okay, let's do it.

00:31:44Great.

00:31:46Oh, and Alice, I don't use this phone often.

00:31:51Let me give you my main number.

00:31:53No problem.

00:31:54I knew you'd come back for his phone.

00:32:11Max.

00:32:17Max, I have something for you.

00:32:20The woman you said you met yesterday, she sounded different than I expected, so I did some digging.

00:32:24I can't believe my mother still likes this woman.

00:32:28I'm sorry, Max.

00:32:29The evidence is undeniable.

00:32:31She did have an affair with her boss.

00:32:32We need to handle this carefully.

00:32:34Henry, I want you to follow up on this information, and I need you to keep this information under wraps.

00:32:41This is strictly family matter.

00:32:43Understood.

00:32:43I'll do everything I can to uncover the truth.

00:32:45Thanks, Henry.

00:32:52No, I'm really, really looking forward to seeing you.

00:32:54It's been so long.

00:32:55I can't wait either.

00:32:59And Emma said that you're planning the wedding, right?

00:33:03Yes.

00:33:04And I never stopped thinking about you, Alice.

00:33:07Why don't we just meet today?

00:33:09I'm at Greensdale Mall right now.

00:33:12That sounds great.

00:33:13I'll be there as soon as I can.

00:33:16Great.

00:33:17So many years have passed, Max.

00:33:19I'm so happy I found you again.

00:33:25Alice?

00:33:28Max!

00:33:30What are you doing here?

00:33:31You shopping for a hot date?

00:33:33As a matter of fact, yes.

00:33:35I am.

00:33:37Huh.

00:33:38Well, I hope he's worthy of you.

00:33:40I think so.

00:33:42You know what?

00:33:44I got a card for this mall.

00:33:45Take it.

00:33:46Use it for whatever you want.

00:33:48No.

00:33:49I can't do that.

00:33:50Please.

00:33:52For all the help that you gave me?

00:33:55When you've been on my mind.

00:33:59Sure.

00:34:03Gonna love you till the end of time.

00:34:11Alice?

00:34:14What are you doing here?

00:34:16I'm shopping, Linda.

00:34:18What does it look like?

00:34:19Shopping.

00:34:20Of course.

00:34:21And I'm sure the only thing you can afford here

00:34:24is that iced coffee.

00:34:29What's your bags, miss?

00:34:32When you're ready, please pay with card.

00:34:34Thank you, Lucy.

00:34:36What?

00:34:38Thank you, Lucy.

00:34:40What?

00:34:41Hold on.

00:34:42Hold on.

00:34:43You can't afford this.

00:34:47Yes, I can.

00:34:49These are designer.

00:34:52And?

00:34:53Whatever.

00:34:55Just don't ask me to cover you later.

00:34:58You know, actually, Linda,

00:35:01I bet you couldn't afford these.

00:35:03You don't think I can?

00:35:07Please.

00:35:13And here's your receipt

00:35:15for $19,999.

00:35:18I'm sorry, how much?

00:35:20How much?

00:35:23$20,000?

00:35:31Linda, what the hell did you buy?

00:35:33Tom, it's...

00:35:34It's just the shopping bill.

00:35:38Yes, it's a lot, but...

00:35:39I had to save base.

00:35:41Stay where you are.

00:35:41I'm coming to find you.

00:35:46Linda, what's the meaning behind this?

00:35:49It's all a trick, babe.

00:35:51She made me pay for it.

00:35:53Excuse me?

00:35:54Alice, you conned Linda into paying for your shit?

00:35:58I didn't con anyone, okay?

00:36:00She paid before I had the chance to.

00:36:02You scam artist!

00:36:03Well, I want my money back.

00:36:08Don't you touch her.

00:36:11Who the hell are you?

00:36:14I'm her husband.

00:36:17Now back off if you don't want any trouble.

00:36:19I should have been here sooner.

00:36:35Alice, I'm sorry.

00:36:37I'm so sorry I left you four years ago.

00:36:40I've...

00:36:41I've really been regretting it every day since.

00:36:45It's okay.

00:36:47I'm just glad you're here now.

00:36:54Alice?

00:36:56That's probably her husband.

00:36:58I'll leave him be.

00:37:08Come on in.

00:37:12Max, why don't you live at home?

00:37:15Well, I, um, I've been traveling a lot from work lately.

00:37:20I guess I just...

00:37:23I got used to hotels.

00:37:27It's...

00:37:28Cozy.

00:37:29I do try to make it feel like golf.

00:37:34Oh, Alice, I'm so sorry.

00:37:38Let me help you.

00:37:40I'm fine.

00:37:41Uh, seeing as we barely know each other, I think I need more time.

00:37:51Alice.

00:37:57Alice.

00:37:59Alice, Alice, Alice.

00:38:02Are you playing hard to get?

00:38:04Yes.

00:38:05To seduce you?

00:38:06Yes.

00:38:11Hi, um, can I get a towel?

00:38:16Please?

00:38:19Alice!

00:38:23Max!

00:38:25Hi.

00:38:26Oh!

00:38:27Oh!

00:38:30Max, what are you doing here?

00:38:33Alice, it is so good to see you.

00:38:36You're drunk.

00:38:38Mm-mm.

00:38:40It must be because of his wife.

00:38:43Let's get you home.

00:38:45Come on.

00:38:46I'll take you.

00:38:48Oh.

00:38:50Okay, if we'll just go this way.

00:38:52And then we're going to go to your room.

00:38:54Here, hold.

00:38:55Careful, careful, careful.

00:38:56Alice.

00:39:00Alice.

00:39:02Matt, we shouldn't.

00:39:04I know.

00:39:07But I missed you.

00:39:14Good night.

00:39:22What am I doing?

00:39:23Why do I like him more than my own husband?

00:39:25Max, I saw your wife with another man.

00:39:34She went into a hotel and-

00:39:35Oh, I, uh, didn't realize you were with Alice.

00:39:46What's going on, Henry?

00:39:47I saw Max's wife.

00:39:50I thought you should know.

00:39:52So she is cheating on him.

00:39:54Yeah.

00:39:56She's arrogant enough to cheat during the divorce.

00:40:02I should go.

00:40:05Wait, Alice, I'm sorry for the intrusion.

00:40:07I-

00:40:07Alice, please, don't go.

00:40:10Oranges.

00:40:18Actually, that's not me.

00:40:18That's-

00:40:19That's at the house in the country.

00:40:21How about this?

00:40:22Max and Alice.

00:40:24Two hearts yearning for love.

00:40:26If only they knew how perfect they are for each other.

00:40:30I wouldn't be able to do this without you.

00:40:32Alice, I need to ask you something.

00:40:38It's about Max?

00:40:40Yeah.

00:40:41What is it?

00:40:42I see how you two could be happy together.

00:40:45Help him get the divorce soon and do it for the both of you.

00:40:50I have a husband.

00:40:52He has a wife.

00:40:53I'm here on a job.

00:40:55To help him get a divorce, I-

00:40:57Henry, please don't suggest something like that again.

00:40:59Let's just keep this professional.

00:41:02Allie, this is for the exceptional job you did last night.

00:41:14It is truly well-deserved.

00:41:16I love it.

00:41:18Put it on me.

00:41:28End.

00:41:28This is ready.

00:41:33Now I have all I need.

00:41:34We're going to get a lot of money.

00:41:36A lot.

00:41:39You're going to be richie!

00:41:40I'm sorry.

00:41:53I didn't mean to interrupt.

00:41:55You weren't interrupting.

00:41:56Really?

00:41:56We were just...

00:41:58Actually, I'm here on business.

00:42:02As you know, Max commissioned me to handle his divorce file.

00:42:06Oh, well, he should give me what I asked for.

00:42:10According to the terms, I am entitled to half his property.

00:42:13If this divorce goes public, his company's stock will tank, and we'll see who loses out then.

00:42:20I understand your position, Allie, but Max is firm on this, and he's willing to fight for what's right.

00:42:25Also, he knows about the affair you're having.

00:42:28Um, hello, I need to file a divorce case.

00:42:41Sorry, I don't take cheap cases like yours.

00:42:44But I need help.

00:42:46I handle high-profile cases, not common ones.

00:42:52I can help you.

00:42:54Thank you so much.

00:42:55Uh, I'm Alice. What's your name?

00:42:58Mr. Thompson Brown.

00:42:59I'm one of the board members at Legend Group.

00:43:06Lovely to meet you.

00:43:07Good to meet you.

00:43:08Mr. Brown, I apologize for any misunderstanding.

00:43:11Allie doesn't normally act like this.

00:43:13I came here to assess if your firm was worthy of our business.

00:43:19I didn't expect to be met with such arrogance, especially from a lawyer.

00:43:23Mr. Brown.

00:43:23Enough, Allie. You've made a grave error in judgment.

00:43:26You need to apologize to Mr. Brown right now.

00:43:30You may be the board member of the Legend Group, but I am the wife of the CEO, so why should I give a shit about you?

00:43:36Wow.

00:43:37I'll show you what I can do.

00:43:39Just you wait.

00:43:41Please!

00:43:41I've decided that in the future, I will seek your services alone.

00:43:48Not this law firm, but you alone.

00:43:52Actually, I'm not a lawyer. I'm just a marriage investigator.

00:43:56That's quite all right. I'm sure you'll get along great with our lawyers.

00:43:58You have made good progress on this case, Alice. I'm impressed.

00:44:11I apologize if I'm overstepping here, but I was wondering if you'd be interested in meeting my son, Michael.

00:44:20He's a fine young man.

00:44:23Well, I heard what you were about to suggest, Thompson.

00:44:26I must advise against it.

00:44:29Allie is married, and your son is not the type of person she should be involved with anyway.

00:44:36I assure you, Michael is a gentleman that would treat Alice with the utmost respect.

00:44:44I suggest only an introduction. Strictly professional.

00:44:46I know my daughter-in-law's value, and I won't have her entangled in your son's affairs.

00:44:56Allie, we should go.

00:45:01Thank you, Mr. Brown.

00:45:02I really appreciate the consideration, but I really should respect my mother-in-law's wishes.

00:45:08Of course, Alice.

00:45:16Missed opportunity, indeed.

00:45:21Allie, there are things about our family that you don't know.

00:45:24Especially Mr. Brown and his son, Michael.

00:45:28He's not a good man.

00:45:30Why? What makes you say that?

00:45:39Michael went abroad after failing to seize control of family business.

00:45:43But now that he's back, he's looking to expand his reach.

00:45:47And your connection to Max makes you a valuable pawn in his games.

00:45:57That's awful.

00:45:58I refuse to be taken advantage of.

00:46:02I really thought Mr. Brown was different.

00:46:06I guess I was wrong. Thank you, Emma.

00:46:10Stay vigilant, Allie.

00:46:13Now, tonight, dress well.

00:46:17I've arranged a special family dinner for us.

00:46:20And Max will be there, too.

00:46:25Okay.

00:46:26I'll be there. Thank you, Emma.

00:46:36So, Allie, have you had a chance to meet with Max yet?

00:46:40Yes, we've met.

00:46:41He's been very...

00:46:43enthusiastic.

00:46:44Well, that's good to hear.

00:46:48It's important that our family is united.

00:46:51Right. Yes.

00:46:56What?

00:46:58The warehouse is on fire?

00:47:01Shit!

00:47:02I need to go.

00:47:03You stay here and wait for Max, okay?

00:47:05Okay.

00:47:07God.

00:47:07What is this traffic, Henry?

00:47:13We've been sitting here for like 15 minutes.

00:47:15You know what?

00:47:16I'm going to walk the rest.

00:47:18I'll see you there.

00:47:21I guess it's just me.

00:47:24Alice!

00:47:26Oh, Max!

00:47:31Alice!

00:47:32I was beginning to think you got lost.

00:47:37Not at all.

00:47:39It's lovely to see you, Adam.

00:47:41I hope I haven't been keeping you waiting.

00:47:43No, no.

00:47:44You haven't.

00:47:45It's nice to see you, too.

00:47:47And I'm sorry about the other night.

00:47:51It's okay.

00:47:53It wasn't your fault.

00:47:55Besides, that's why my mother gave us a chance to get to know each other more.

00:47:58Yeah.

00:48:00Thank you for making this work.

00:48:03Sure.

00:48:04Um, what should we have?

00:48:08I tell you what.

00:48:10Let's enjoy a drink and then get out of here.

00:48:13There's something I want to show you.

00:48:17Okay.

00:48:18Great.

00:48:32Mom, where are you?

00:48:37I can't seem to find you or Allie.

00:48:39I'm dealing with the warehouse.

00:48:41She might have left.

00:48:43Next time, then.

00:48:43Ah, I see.

00:48:46Well, it's probably for the best.

00:48:49I wasn't really in the mood to see her tonight anyway.

00:48:51Well, I thought we could have our own private dinner here.

00:49:03What do you think?

00:49:08It's beautiful, Max.

00:49:11Um, but why do you keep bringing me to hotels?

00:49:15Um, Alice, I...

00:49:17I understand that the last time wasn't the right time, seeing as I hadn't proposed to you yet.

00:49:26So, will you marry me?

00:49:33Max, um, this is all really sudden.

00:49:36I need time.

00:49:37Of course.

00:49:44But, uh, know that my feelings for you are genuine.

00:49:51I know this is really frustrating for you.

00:49:55I want you to know that I really do want to make this work between us.

00:50:07Oh, what the fuck was that?

00:50:22Huh?

00:50:24I don't understand you.

00:50:26You left...

00:50:28You left your stuff here.

00:50:32Seduced me.

00:50:34Didn't you?

00:50:35Huh?

00:50:35Didn't you?

00:50:39You're nothing like what I imagined, Max.

00:50:42I...

00:50:42I need time.

00:50:44I...

00:50:44I can't force myself.

00:50:46I'm sorry.

00:50:46Shut you now.

00:50:48Just say your lies.

00:50:50Okay?

00:50:51All you women are...

00:50:53That's what you're saying.

00:50:55Now...

00:50:56I can finish...

00:50:58You started.

00:51:02Never!

00:51:03You weren't like this before!

00:51:05You fucking bitch!

00:51:07Oh!

00:51:10You can't escape me, Alice!

00:51:12Alice!

00:51:19I can't do this anymore.

00:51:22I want a divorce.

00:51:23Ellie, are you sure?

00:51:26You were once so confident.

00:51:29Why can't you try and work things out?

00:51:31I just can't.

00:51:35The marriage isn't what I hoped for.

00:51:37Sorry, Emma.

00:51:39Yeah, I understand your feelings, but divorce is a serious step.

00:51:44Are you certain you can't find a way to cultivate these feelings again?

00:51:50No.

00:51:52I need to move on.

00:51:54For my own sake.

00:51:55You know what?

00:52:00Allie keeps going behind my back and setting up dinners with my mom.

00:52:03I can't stand that one.

00:52:06You know, sometimes I think how nice it would be if I was married to a woman like Alice.

00:52:11If someone who understands me, who connects with me on a deeper level.

00:52:14You know what, man?

00:52:18Forget her.

00:52:20Alice is a great woman and all, but she's got a husband.

00:52:24And you have a wife.

00:52:26You need to face reality.

00:52:33Maybe it's time to end the show, right?

00:52:44Hello, Mom.

00:52:47Max, Allie has agreed to the divorce.

00:52:49It's going to be a clean break.

00:52:52Really?

00:52:53That's great news.

00:52:55How'd you get the gold digger to suddenly change her mind?

00:52:58She was never a gold digger, Max.

00:53:00I want you to know that.

00:53:02Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:53:02Whatever you say, Mom.

00:53:05Penry, Allie finally decided for the divorce.

00:53:08What?

00:53:09That's unbelievable.

00:53:10Let's celebrate.

00:53:12Cheers, cheers.

00:53:13Mom, Mom, I'm home.

00:53:25Fuck, this woman is so annoying.

00:53:27She came to my mom's house.

00:53:29What are you doing here?

00:53:31I told you to leave me alone.

00:53:33I want to move on with my life.

00:53:36Have you no shame?

00:53:37I want to move on with my life.

00:53:46Yeah, you've got no shame?

00:53:47Because, see, on the surface, it seemed like you were good with the divorce.

00:53:51And now you're here trying to seduce me.

00:53:53What are you talking about?

00:53:55I'm not trying to seduce you.

00:53:57I'm done with your lies.

00:54:00Not lying.

00:54:01I came here to rest.

00:54:02Emma said that I could rest here.

00:54:04Save it for someone who cares.

00:54:10I'm done with your games.

00:54:14I'm not playing any games, Max.

00:54:21That voice sounded different.

00:54:23Alice, do you know that we've lost every one of our clients because of you?

00:54:40No, you can blame Mr. Thompson Brown for that.

00:54:43Actually, no, I would blame Allie for that.

00:54:46Hey, why don't you give me Max's divorce case?

00:54:49At least in my hands, I could save this law firm.

00:54:51Oh, you know, I highly doubt that.

00:54:54Plus, Max wouldn't agree to that.

00:54:57I already talked to him.

00:54:59And he already agreed.

00:55:02Well, if that's the case, then I'll wait for him to confirm it with me.

00:55:08Oh, Allie, have you seen my work phone anywhere?

00:55:11I must have missed like 10 calls.

00:55:13Why don't you handle your own shit?

00:55:19Alice, my wife is someone that we cannot trust.

00:55:31Last night was just so disappointing.

00:55:33She came into my mom's home and she tried to seduce me.

00:55:37That's awful.

00:55:39I'm really sorry, Max.

00:55:42I have to ask you.

00:55:43Did you pass off the case to my boss, Stephen?

00:55:47No.

00:55:48No, why?

00:55:50No reason, I guess.

00:55:51They just wanted more information from you.

00:55:54I can't stand that woman.

00:55:57I mean, she probably got a certificate from the lawyers just to exploit me.

00:56:01I can't comment on that.

00:56:03But what I can say is that there are good lawyers and bad lawyers,

00:56:07and I would never do that to you.

00:56:08That woman is nothing compared to you, Alice.

00:56:17Max, I really don't want to hurt you.

00:56:20I can't be what you want me to be.

00:56:22Let's just try to finish this and move on with our lives amicably.

00:56:33I see.

00:56:34I see.

00:56:38Alice, I've lost so much money,

00:56:47and my firm is dying because of you.

00:56:49If I can't be happy, neither can you.

00:56:52You're going to pay.

00:56:54Thanks for meeting me here again.

00:56:55Of course.

00:56:56You parked nearby?

00:56:57Oh, no.

00:56:58I was just going to...

00:57:00No, that's good.

00:57:00I'm parked right down this way.

00:57:02Alice!

00:57:06Oh, fuck.

00:57:08Oh, my God.

00:57:19I'm going to call.

00:57:21Don't worry.

00:57:21Oh, my phone's broken.

00:57:22Okay, stay with me.

00:57:23Don't worry.

00:57:24Okay, stay with me.

00:57:25Stay with me.

00:57:27Max.

00:57:31What?

00:57:34Alice?

00:57:36Max.

00:57:36You're awake.

00:57:39How do you feel?

00:57:40Oh, Rocky.

00:57:43What happened?

00:57:45You were in an accident.

00:57:47You need to thank your wife, who carries you two blocks to get help.

00:57:53You did that for me?

00:57:55You saved me, too.

00:57:57It's just a mild concussion from the crash.

00:58:00You may experience symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and some memory loss, but this is

00:58:06all normal.

00:58:08You hear that, Alice?

00:58:11I got a concussion.

00:58:12I might be a little bit slow and stupid for the rest of my life.

00:58:16Is that so?

00:58:18Yeah.

00:58:18I might need you to take care of me.

00:58:20Well, if that's the case, then I will.

00:58:28Don't you worry.

00:58:30This accident will not influence your...

00:58:33Bang!

00:58:34Sex life.

00:58:35Or make you an idiot.

00:58:37Actually, he's not my husband.

00:58:40Oh, pardon me.

00:58:41Okay.

00:58:41Sir, I've looked into the car accident.

00:58:49We've managed to identify the car, but the police haven't found the driver yet.

00:58:52Keep on it, Henry.

00:58:53I'm going to need you to look in to find out who did this.

00:58:55Of course, sir.

00:59:06Hello?

00:59:07Max, if you introduce me as the CEO's wife and board member,

00:59:11of the upcoming business dinner, plus give me $20 million,

00:59:14I promise to divorce you.

00:59:15Fine.

00:59:16But this is going to be the last favor.

00:59:25Pleasure meeting you.

00:59:26This is my wife, Allie.

00:59:28She's the CEO of Legend Group, and she's the woman,

00:59:31the chairwoman, of the whole board.

00:59:32Pleasure to meet you.

00:59:35Allie, could you tell us about your company's current investment strategy?

00:59:39Well, it's...

00:59:45Or you could tell us anything at all about the company.

00:59:50Yeah.

00:59:52If you don't have anything to say about that,

00:59:54maybe you have something to say about this.

00:59:56It wasn't just me.

00:59:59It was Allie, who asked me to hit Allison next.

01:00:04No?

01:00:05I had nothing to do with that.

01:00:08That's defamation.

01:00:09I...

01:00:09Why are you looking at me?

01:00:11It wasn't me.

01:00:12What...

01:00:12Henry?

01:00:13I swear, I...

01:00:15That wasn't...

01:00:15You guys, I'm being saved!

01:00:17Let me go!

01:00:18Let me go!

01:00:20No!

01:00:24Alice, I have something for you.

01:00:27The police recovered it from Allie.

01:00:29Here you go.

01:00:30My work phone.

01:00:32I've been looking everywhere for this.

01:00:34What are all these missed calls?

01:00:36Was Allie using my phone to call Max?

01:00:39Max?

01:00:43Hello?

01:00:44Hello?

01:00:45Hold on.

01:00:46Wait.

01:00:49It's you!

01:00:53Why are you calling from her phone?

01:00:55I have something to tell you.

01:00:56Meet me at Moonfall Lodge Restaurant.

01:01:07Hey.

01:01:08Boss.

01:01:09I found out the truth about your wife.

01:01:12Henry.

01:01:13Please.

01:01:13Not now.

01:01:14I'm supposed to be meeting Alice here.

01:01:15Actually, sir.

01:01:16You're going to want to look at this.

01:01:18And you should cherish her.

01:01:22Do not mention this woman to me again.

01:01:25The woman I care about is Alice.

01:01:27You should know that by now.

01:01:29All right?

01:01:30I can't believe I'm still tied to this woman.

01:01:31Come on.

01:01:41Alice?

01:01:45Not Allie?

01:01:48Alice Smith is this woman I married, not Allie?

01:01:53Alice.

01:01:55Alice is my wife.

01:01:57Alice Smith.

01:01:58Mm-hmm.

01:02:00The woman I married, the name is Taylor.

01:02:03It should be Allie Taylor.

01:02:04She used her mother's last name after she lost her father.

01:02:08And your wife's first name isn't Allie.

01:02:10It's Alice.

01:02:12And also, she was in your class in college, but you never paid attention to her.

01:02:15You've known her for a long time.

01:02:17It's really you.

01:02:41It's really you.

01:02:42If I lost you.

01:02:49If I lost.

01:02:52If I lost you.

01:02:54You.
