00:01:16so
00:01:18I'm following up with New York about next month, but, uh, how do you spell rapport?
00:01:42R-A-P-P-O-R-T comes from the French rapporteur, bring back, as in, je rapporte ses plats Γ  la cousine, and bringing these dishes back to the kitchen.
00:01:54Well, you can bring that little attitude of yours back there as well.
00:01:59I didn't realize they taught French at waitress school.
00:02:02I went to UC Berkeley. Heard of it?
00:02:05That's where you went.
00:02:10I'll be right back, gentlemen.
00:02:12That's R-A-P-P-O-R-T.
00:02:18Yeah, I got it.
00:02:19Here comes the smart mouth again.
00:02:22You'd think a hospitality major would be a little bit more hospitable.
00:02:26For your information, I studied business. Just graduated.
00:02:29Oh, congrats on the degree. I can see things are really working out for you here.
00:02:33At least I know how to spell.
00:02:34Excuse me, I ordered this steak medium rare, and it is medium.
00:02:42I'll be with you in just a moment.
00:02:43I think I've waited long enough.
00:02:44She's busy right now. She'll be with you when she's done here.
00:02:47I can speak for myself. Thank you.
00:02:48Daddy.
00:02:52One second, sweetheart. You sure about that? Seems like you got a little bit too much on your plate here.
00:02:58Malia, oh my god. Sweetheart.
00:03:07Sweetheart, hey. Dad, where are our pills?
00:03:08Here.
00:03:09Hey, come here.
00:03:10Lay her down.
00:03:11I got you. Daddy's here. Hey, Malia.
00:03:13We need to elevate her legs and increase blood flow to the brain.
00:03:16It's okay.
00:03:16Give her some room to breathe.
00:03:17She's my daughter. I know what's best for her.
00:03:19Clearly not, or you wouldn't be raising her voice right now.
00:03:22Now elevate her legs. I'm calling 911.
00:03:24Malia.
00:03:26Daddy.
00:03:27Honey, hey. Okay, sit up.
00:03:31Here. It's okay.
00:03:33Take this.
00:03:36Little sips, okay, honey?
00:03:38We're good. Thanks.
00:03:42Honey, you think you can stand up?
00:03:44Slow, nice and slow.
00:03:46I got you.
00:03:47Look at me.
00:03:49You okay?
00:03:50I'm taking you to see Dr. Schaffer right now to get you checked out.
00:03:52No, I'm fine.
00:03:53No butts, okay?
00:03:55Come on.
00:03:56Dad, can you take care of the bill?
00:03:58Yeah.
00:04:09Please excuse my son.
00:04:10What he meant was, no, thank you.
00:04:14Alex, and it's all right. It was a stressful situation.
00:04:18Yeah, how do you know how to handle that?
00:04:22Sometimes I faint when I get stressed out.
00:04:25Heart defect.
00:04:25I was born with it.
00:04:27I learned how to take care of myself over the years.
00:04:30Well, you shouldn't be working as a waitress with a condition like that, you know, running
00:04:33around all day.
00:04:34Student loans and a looming surgery I can't even begin to afford don't just pay for themselves.
00:04:41Oh my God, thank you.
00:04:47You know, there's an opening at my office.
00:04:50Less footwork, better pay.
00:04:52Why don't you come and see me?
00:04:55Monday morning, all right?
00:04:56We'll have a chat.
00:04:589 a.m.
00:04:59And don't be late.
00:05:12Yeah, absolutely.
00:05:13I'm getting in the elevator.
00:05:14Let me call you right back.
00:05:15Okay.
00:05:27You.
00:05:27What are you doing here?
00:05:30I work here.
00:05:33I didn't realize the cafeteria was hiring.
00:05:36Mr. Blanford said he had a job for me.
00:05:38Must be a pity hire.
00:05:39Better than Daddy buying my position for me.
00:05:43You know, you're a lot more charming in an apron, waitress.
00:05:50Your floor, by the way.
00:05:57You know what to do.
00:06:06Yeah.
00:06:07Well.
00:06:09I gotta go now.
00:06:11All right.
00:06:14Hello again, Alex.
00:06:16So I'll cut right to it.
00:06:17I'd like to offer you an executive assistant position.
00:06:23I need someone to rein in our interim CEO so that he can become the leader this company needs.
00:06:28So, keep him out of trouble?
00:06:31No, he's just overwhelmed.
00:06:34And his ex, Camilla, isn't helping.
00:06:36I need you to keep her far away from him.
00:06:39Sir, I appreciate the offer, I do, but I'm not interested in being someone's babysitter.
00:06:45Think of yourself as a fixer.
00:06:49I could use someone like you.
00:06:51You know, you're smart.
00:06:54You're good and under pressure.
00:06:55And if you don't tell him the real reason why I hired you, I'll handle all those medical bills of yours.
00:07:03What do you say?
00:07:05I say, when do I start?
00:07:10Right now.
00:07:15Hmm.
00:07:18Alex, meet Lakin Blanford, the interim CEO of Blanford Corporation.
00:07:23And you're a new boss.
00:07:25Her?
00:07:27Are you joking?
00:07:28I certainly am not.
00:07:30I'm still CEO for now.
00:07:32You do as I say.
00:07:44Welcome aboard.
00:07:51Let's get started.
00:07:53Did you bring your notepad from the restaurant?
00:08:01Coffee.
00:08:02Black.
00:08:03Every day within five minutes of my arrival.
00:08:05Lunch will be at 1pm sharp.
00:08:08No fast food.
00:08:11Are you writing this down?
00:08:13I also need you to pick up my dry cleaning every week from Emilio's.
00:08:17Oh.
00:08:17And stay out of my personal life.
00:08:22That'll be all for now.
00:08:24I'll give you access to my work calendar later.
00:08:32That means you can go.
00:08:34Lakin.
00:08:42I like Lucifer.
00:08:45His bark's worse than his bite.
00:08:47Trust me.
00:08:48I'm Jace.
00:08:50Lucifer's angelic younger brother.
00:08:52You are?
00:08:53Alex.
00:08:54Lakin's new assistant.
00:08:55And, uh, it would be great if you didn't mention that super unprofessional name calling.
00:09:01I've said worse.
00:09:01Your secret's safe with me.
00:09:05Alex.
00:09:06Get in here.
00:09:07We need to roll some calls to South Korea.
00:09:09You're gonna need that.
00:09:11Coming.
00:09:12We're still evaluating the Chicago hub closure.
00:09:19It's costing us.
00:09:22Labor shortages at key distribution centers are already slowing down operation times.
00:09:27And shifting our operations to Detroit might create bottlenecks we just can't afford right now.
00:09:33So what?
00:09:34We're just going to bleed cash while you evaluate?
00:09:37I need solutions faster.
00:09:39Not more excuses, people.
00:09:40We're exploring alternatives.
00:09:43Nothing definitive yet.
00:09:47Um, sorry to interrupt.
00:09:53But have you considered splitting freight between Detroit and Cleveland and using your existing rail contracts to offset the overflow?
00:10:01Huh.
00:10:02So what, you're now an expert in freight logistics?
00:10:05Uh, no.
00:10:07But I was looking over last quarter's regional expense report while it could be off, but Cleveland's underutilized and you're already paying for the rail infrastructure.
00:10:16It wouldn't solve all of your problems, but it could keep the Detroit bottleneck from shutting you down entirely.
00:10:22Actually, that could work.
00:10:24I mean, obviously, my team would need to take a look at it and sort out the details.
00:10:32Is there anything else I should know about my business?
00:10:34Uh, you heard her.
00:10:44Let's, uh, let's move on this right away.
00:10:46That'll be all.
00:10:47Alex has to go.
00:10:51Absolutely not.
00:10:53She stays.
00:10:54Look, Dad, I understand that I've been through an assistant or two.
00:10:58Seven this year.
00:10:59This girl is overstepping.
00:11:01She's jumping on executive leadership calls.
00:11:04Yes, she was right.
00:11:05But she is undermining me in front of my team.
00:11:08How is that supposed to strengthen my position with the board?
00:11:10So you want to fire her for being too good at her job?
00:11:14Lincoln, a good leader isn't threatened by his employees.
00:11:17Threatened?
00:11:18I am not threatened by her.
00:11:20But she makes it look like I've lost control.
00:11:23Well, the board already thinks you've lost control.
00:11:25This constant personnel turnover makes you look indecisive and weak.
00:11:29You have to keep Alex.
00:11:35What are you saying?
00:11:37You fire her and the board will find another CEO.
00:11:59Hey.
00:12:03Malia, right?
00:12:05How are you feeling?
00:12:07Better.
00:12:07Thank you for helping me the other day.
00:12:09Of course.
00:12:10You know, if you ever start to feel like that, you should sit down and slow your heart rate.
00:12:15What the hell are you doing?
00:12:15Malia, honey.
00:12:21Why don't you get started on your homework, okay?
00:12:27Your job is to help with my work and not butt into my personal life.
00:12:30I was just trying...
00:12:31From now on, I want you to leave my daughter alone.
00:12:35How about I leave you alone, huh?
00:12:38I quit.
00:12:39Come on, it's only been a week.
00:12:41You really giving up that fast?
00:12:42You know what?
00:12:44Fine.
00:12:45Leave.
00:12:46Guess you're just not cut out for a big girl job, are you, waitress?
00:12:55Alex, hang on.
00:12:59Alex!
00:13:05Alex, wait.
00:13:06Alex!
00:13:07Alex!
00:13:07I told you to wait.
00:13:14I'm not going to stay here and subject myself to this bullshit any longer.
00:13:18I'm not just another one of your disposable assistants.
00:13:21I'll double your salary.
00:13:23I'll give you a four-day work week, whatever you want.
00:13:28Look, you can't leave, okay?
00:13:32I need you to stay.
00:13:33How about starting with an apology?
00:13:38I've been working my ass off all week doing everything you say, and you're still a dick to me.
00:13:43What do I have to do to please you?
00:13:48Look, I'm sorry, okay?
00:13:51It's not your fault.
00:13:54I just, uh...
00:13:55Alex, hang on.
00:14:08Alex, hey.
00:14:10Alex, hey, Alex, wait one second.
00:14:13Look, I don't know what came over me, okay?
00:14:16But I can't lose you.
00:14:18I promise from now on, I will clean up my act.
00:14:21No more verbal abuse?
00:14:22I didn't...
00:14:25Fine.
00:14:27No more.
00:14:28And no more calling me waitress.
00:14:30It's Miss Livingston or Alex.
00:14:33Got it.
00:14:35And you said something about doubling my salary.
00:14:39Stick around for a few more months, and then we'll talk, okay?
00:14:46You won't regret it.
00:14:48Want to bet?
00:14:49Huh.
00:14:52Sorry I'm late.
00:15:17Traffic was hell.
00:15:18A menu for you, sir.
00:15:25Hi, Malia.
00:15:27Can't compete with that iPad.
00:15:30We order drinks.
00:15:33A 2005 Roman Acon tea.
00:15:37Best bottle on the menu.
00:15:39It better be.
00:15:40It costs $15,000.
00:15:41We are celebrating, Mr. CEO.
00:15:44Not until after I get board approval.
00:15:45So, what did you want to talk to me about?
00:15:55Malia and I thought it would be nice to spend more time as a family.
00:16:01It's not easy on her poor little heart.
00:16:05Malia, honey, you and I talked about this, right?
00:16:08Your mother and I love you very much.
00:16:12It's just...
00:16:13It's not easy for us to be around each other right now.
00:16:19Maybe.
00:16:21We could try a little harder.
00:16:23Hey.
00:16:32I just wanted to give you a status report before I head home.
00:16:35Thank you, Ms. Livingston.
00:16:39So, regarding South Korea, I'm scheduling a Zoom for next week.
00:16:42I'm working on...
00:16:43I'm working on...
00:16:44Like the world is sending
00:16:46You can tell that it's alright
00:16:50It's alright
00:16:52It's alright
00:16:53It's alright
00:16:53I can, are you listening to me?
00:16:59Uh, sorry.
00:17:00As I was saying, uh, where was I?
00:17:03You can just take your top off.
00:17:05Oh my god, I meant you can just take it from the top.
00:17:09I got to go.
00:17:25No soy sauce in this whole building?
00:17:29They're still here.
00:17:30That's surprising.
00:17:33You and my brother getting along better?
00:17:35Yeah, everything's just peachy.
00:17:39So, that little argument you guys had the other day, what was that, a lover's quarrel?
00:17:45Look who's blushing.
00:17:47I am not blushing and that wasn't a lover's quarrel. He doesn't like me like that.
00:17:53So he didn't run after you in the elevator and sweep you off your feet?
00:17:58Chase.
00:17:59Lakin.
00:18:01So we were just talking about you.
00:18:03Lovely assistant you've got here.
00:18:05Such a sweetheart.
00:18:07Anywho, I gotta go. I'll talk to you later, Alex.
00:18:10You needed me for something?
00:18:14The, uh, the company's hosting a charity fundraiser tomorrow night and I need you to go with me.
00:18:21You need a date?
00:18:23No, uh, what I need is my assistant close by.
00:18:25So, if you have any plans, just go ahead and cancel them.
00:18:30And here.
00:18:32Take my card and buy yourself a dress this afternoon.
00:18:35Try to keep it under $10,000, alright?
00:18:38No problem. I'll ride my unicorn over to the mall after lunch.
00:18:45Got it.
00:18:45Under $10,000.
00:18:46Oh, and seeing as I'm buying, I like red.
00:18:54I like red.
00:19:16I like red.
00:19:17I like red.
00:19:17White.
00:19:18I like red.
00:19:18Oh, and see you.
00:19:21So.
00:19:34I like red.
00:19:34I like red.
00:19:37I like red.
00:19:42Oh, and seeing standing.
00:19:43I thought I said I like red.
00:20:04Did you?
00:20:05Oops, must have slipped my mind.
00:20:13It looks like we're almost there.
00:20:32Remember, this is a work event.
00:20:35The whole board is going to be there.
00:20:37It's easy on the drinks.
00:20:43Do as I say, not as I do.
00:20:53You ready?
00:21:13It's easy on the drinks.
00:21:21So, Miss Livingston, I was looking over the official guest list for the party tonight,
00:21:41and you lied to me.
00:21:46Your name's not Alexandra, is it?
00:21:51I thought only HR saw that.
00:21:55Oh, don't be embarrassed, sugar.
00:21:58I think that's a very sweet name.
00:22:00I'm not embarrassed.
00:22:01It's just private.
00:22:03My parents were the only ones who called me that.
00:22:11I see.
00:22:14I apologize.
00:22:15I didn't know.
00:22:17I didn't mean to upset you.
00:22:21Hey.
00:22:23Alex.
00:22:26I mean it.
00:22:28I'm sorry.
00:22:28I'm sorry.
00:22:28I'm sorry.
00:22:33I think I owe you a drink.
00:22:37I'll be right back.
00:22:45Look at you.
00:22:46You look stunning.
00:22:49Let's see the dress.
00:22:53Let's get to turn even me straight.
00:22:55Picked it out just for you.
00:22:56It's perfect.
00:22:57May I have this dance, my lady?
00:22:58Let's get to the party.
00:23:18For you.
00:23:19Hey, bro.
00:23:20Is that for me?
00:23:21Get your own drink, bro.
00:23:23And maybe your own date while you're at it.
00:23:27Dane?
00:23:28I knew it.
00:23:29My guest.
00:23:30You know what I mean.
00:23:31Yeah, sure.
00:23:31I know what you mean.
00:23:32I'll take that.
00:23:33I'll leave you guys to it.
00:23:47It's just a dance.
00:23:48Do not be weird about this.
00:23:50Oh, I'm being weird?
00:23:52Everyone else is dancing.
00:23:53It would look strange if we didn't.
00:23:54And besides, it's not like we're attracted to each other, right?
00:24:02Right.
00:24:15So, something going on between you and my brother?
00:24:18Jace?
00:24:21Of course not.
00:24:22That was nothing.
00:24:23It didn't look like nothing.
00:24:26If I didn't know any better, I'd say you sound jealous.
00:24:30Don't be ridiculous.
00:24:32I'm just looking out for my assistant.
00:24:37Well, I doubt he's interested.
00:24:39He's, you know.
00:24:40He's what?
00:24:45You don't know?
00:24:49Never mind.
00:24:50So, you guys aren't that close then?
00:24:53Well, excuse me if I don't have time to listen to my brother's sexual exploits.
00:24:57If you hadn't noticed, I'm somewhat busy running the largest shipping company in America.
00:25:02It's important to make time for family, Lincoln.
00:25:05That's none of your concern.
00:25:08Just focus on steering clear of an office romance, Miss Livingston.
00:25:12It's unprofessional.
00:25:14What, this?
00:25:19This is just two co-workers dancing.
00:25:22Right.
00:25:23A totally normal boss slash assistant slow dance.
00:25:28It's completely innocent.
00:25:30Hmm.
00:25:31They're rarely touching.
00:25:37Lincoln.
00:25:40Dad.
00:25:41Well, some of our board members are already here.
00:25:45I need you to make your rounds.
00:25:48Miss Livingston?
00:25:50Shall we?
00:25:56Well, Mr. Harris was just saying that he was very impressed with your recent progress.
00:26:02Wonderful to see that you're finally settling in, Lincoln.
00:26:08Miss Livingston has been a welcomed addition.
00:26:11Oh, yes.
00:26:12Detroit and Cleveland.
00:26:14Nice work.
00:26:16Yes, and we're also improving transit times.
00:26:18I'll actually be in New York next week.
00:26:30Team there and finalizing everything, making sure everything's running smoothly.
00:26:34Hi, Lincoln.
00:26:34What are you doing here?
00:26:37I just thought I'd stop by.
00:26:38I thought you could use the moral support.
00:26:41Where's Malia?
00:26:42I got a babysitter.
00:26:45I think everyone knows Camilla, Malia's mother.
00:26:51Who's this?
00:26:53Uh, no one.
00:26:54Just, uh, my assistant.
00:26:55Alex, nice to meet you, Alice.
00:27:02As I was saying, the transit time's in New York.
00:27:04Oh, come on, Lincoln.
00:27:06Don't be a bore.
00:27:07It's a party.
00:27:09No one wants to talk about business.
00:27:11Am I right?
00:27:12Let's dance.
00:27:13Maybe later.
00:27:15These gentlemen are on the board.
00:27:16You don't mind if I steal them, do you?
00:27:28What are you doing?
00:27:30Are you drunk?
00:27:31The whole office is here.
00:27:32We never have any time together.
00:27:33And there's a reason for that, Camilla.
00:27:35We're not together anymore.
00:27:37You made that perfectly clear when you fucked my best friend.
00:27:40Oh, come on, Lincoln.
00:27:42I'm sorry if I embarrassed you.
00:27:44No, I just...
00:27:46I miss you.
00:27:49And I was thinking about how we used to come to these things together.
00:27:53I was hoping you'd dance with me.
00:27:56For all time's sake.
00:28:00One dance.
00:28:14Excuse me, gentlemen.
00:28:21Doesn't this feel nice?
00:28:24I know you miss this.
00:28:30This is a work event, Camilla.
00:28:33Max Lincoln, so tense.
00:28:37I could fix that, you know?
00:28:38What do you want, hmm?
00:28:41And don't give me some bullshit about missing me.
00:28:44I know you.
00:28:45You want money, don't you?
00:28:48Have you given any more thought to the conversation we had the other day?
00:28:52Malia's getting older.
00:28:54It's only getting harder to take care of her, especially with her situation.
00:28:59We should be a family.
00:29:00We tried.
00:29:02And failed miserably.
00:29:04I can't be with you, Camilla.
00:29:06Are you sure about that?
00:29:09Camilla, don't.
00:29:11Kiss me.
00:29:12If you don't feel anything, I'll leave you alone.
00:29:20Stop.
00:29:21Jesus.
00:29:24Don't tell me you didn't enjoy that.
00:29:27Lincoln, are you listening to me?
00:29:31Look at me.
00:29:32You don't want me to make a scene, do you?
00:29:35Because you know I will.
00:29:38Let me make something very clear to you.
00:29:41We are never getting back together, Camilla.
00:29:43You hear me?
00:29:44Never.
00:29:45Now, you need to go.
00:29:47But...
00:29:48Right now.
00:30:00Not having any fun?
00:30:13Yeah.
00:30:13No.
00:30:20Let's see if we can change that.
00:30:21It's my mom's 60th birthday, right?
00:30:31And her sorority sisters are drinking me under the table.
00:30:35And Agnes, her old roommate, slept with the bartender.
00:30:40So it's last call, right?
00:30:41I go up to the bar looking for this guy.
00:30:43Aggie's dragging him to the bathroom.
00:30:44Oh, my God.
00:30:46Stop.
00:30:49Something funny?
00:30:54Time to go.
00:30:55It's okay.
00:31:07Arturo.
00:31:09Took Miss Livingston home.
00:31:10You're being incredibly rude.
00:31:12You know that?
00:31:12You're getting wasted at a company party.
00:31:15It's totally inappropriate.
00:31:17Don't you inappropriate me.
00:31:19Your girlfriend was treating you like a stripper pole.
00:31:21You made out in front of everyone.
00:31:22Okay, first of all, she's my ex.
00:31:25And second of all, I can do whatever I want.
00:31:27I'm a CEO.
00:31:29Interrupt.
00:31:30Right.
00:31:31Is that why you're cozying up to my dad?
00:31:34What, my title not good enough for you?
00:31:35Charming your way up the corporate ladder?
00:31:37CEO this week, chairman the next.
00:31:40Meanwhile, you're wasted hanging all over Jace.
00:31:43What do you care anyway?
00:31:44I thought you weren't attracted to me.
00:31:46I'm not.
00:31:48Oh, yeah?
00:31:49Yeah.
00:31:51Liar.
00:32:05Fucking fuck this.
00:32:10Didn't expect you to have tattoos.
00:32:16Yeah, well, there's a lot you don't know about me.
00:32:26That cost $8,000.
00:32:28Yeah, my fucking money.
00:32:31Now get the hell over here.
00:32:33Is that a scar?
00:32:42It's odd.
00:32:46Fuck me.
00:32:47I don't know.
00:33:05Don't run away, we can't let this go to waste
00:33:08I don't wanna know what it all about
00:33:12Don't let this go to waste
00:33:15Don't run away, we can't let this go to waste
00:33:18Don't run away, we can't let this go to waste
00:33:35You, uh, want to come inside?
00:33:49Uh, no
00:33:50Right, no, of course not
00:33:56Well, I guess I'll see you on Monday
00:34:05Morning
00:34:20Morning
00:34:22I can't believe I risked my job for a guy
00:34:33Who doesn't give two shits about me
00:34:35It's not your fault, Laken barely gives a shit about his own family, you know
00:34:39Me, Dad
00:34:41But I've seen how he is with Malia and
00:34:44She's a soft spot
00:34:45Laken's got some serious trust issues
00:34:48Like, he needs therapy about it
00:34:51Camilla really messed him up
00:34:53Look, I consider myself a feminist, right?
00:34:57That bitch is a gold digger
00:34:59I mean, she was basically using him to bankroll her modeling career
00:35:02Took him, like, three years to come to his senses
00:35:05And when he finally did
00:35:05Oh, surprise, surprise
00:35:06Guess who's suddenly pregnant?
00:35:10Jesus
00:35:10Maybe it's just best to pretend like this never happened
00:35:15It sounds like he's been through a lot
00:35:17Look
00:35:19Look
00:35:22I gotta run to a meeting
00:35:24How about you come over for dinner tonight?
00:35:27Seven?
00:35:28I'll text you the details
00:35:29Yeah, I'm down
00:35:32Great
00:35:33Can't remember the last time you had us over for dinner
00:35:54Dad insisted
00:35:56Something about never getting to see Malia these days
00:35:59I wanted to have the gala post-mortem at the office
00:36:03You know, like, normal business partners and not
00:36:06Family members
00:36:06Exactly
00:36:08Did you, uh, give Alex a ride on Saturday?
00:36:19Grandpa, I told you it's me
00:36:21You?
00:36:22Ah, you're too tall
00:36:23No, my Malia, last time I saw her
00:36:25She was just about my knee high
00:36:27Hey, has anybody seen my granddaughter?
00:36:30Hmm
00:36:31Because this little woman is an imposter
00:36:33Are we expecting company?
00:36:48Tell him to send an extra plate
00:36:49Alex?
00:36:56Lincoln?
00:36:57You made it
00:36:58Didn't realize you were joining us, Alex
00:37:23Me neither
00:37:25It's okay
00:37:37I don't like asparagus either
00:37:39My dad says I have to eat it because it's healthy for me
00:37:43He's right
00:37:44It is
00:37:46Look on the bright side
00:37:48At least it's not brussel sprouts, am I right?
00:37:50Thank you
00:37:58That was delicious
00:37:59All right
00:38:01Miss Livingston
00:38:05A word
00:38:08Uh, Mr. Blainford
00:38:16About the other night
00:38:17I know the gala was a mess with Camilla
00:38:20Alex
00:38:21Alex
00:38:21I've seen a change in my son
00:38:24Really?
00:38:25It's the first time I've seen him smile in years
00:38:28Keep doing what you're doing
00:38:29You planned this, didn't you?
00:38:33I just thought I'd give you and Lincoln some time alone
00:38:36Thank you, Jace
00:38:38You're very welcome
00:38:39Jace, don't
00:38:40Bye
00:38:40Wanna watch Disney with us?
00:38:44Uh, you have a spelling test to study for, remember?
00:38:48But I wanna hang out with Alex
00:38:49Please, Daddy, please
00:38:51Works for me
00:38:57I'll be right back
00:39:10Hey
00:39:12I think you're bad
00:39:15Come on
00:39:17I'll be right back
00:39:47She likes you, you know
00:39:54She's not normally so comfortable with strangers
00:39:58I like her too
00:40:00So, are we gonna figure out what happened?
00:40:11Or did I just fuck myself out of a job?
00:40:13Your job is not in danger
00:40:17Okay, that doesn't totally answer my question
00:40:23What do you want me to say, Alex?
00:40:27I...
00:40:27I can't get involved with my assistant
00:40:31Not with the board watching my every move
00:40:33But I also can't accept the fact that
00:40:38Saturday night was the last time that we'll ever...
00:40:41I thought I did something wrong
00:40:45I want you, Alex
00:40:47That's the problem
00:40:49What if we separate church and state?
00:41:01At work, we're professional
00:41:04But outside of work, we're...
00:41:08Unprofessional?
00:41:09I think the light is like...
00:41:11I'm asleep walking through
00:41:14All of my problems, you know
00:41:16I can't make it through
00:41:20Every night is the same
00:41:23I keep running fast
00:41:24Left and right
00:41:26Wondering where my head's gone now
00:41:29I'm asleep walking through
00:41:33All of my problems, you know
00:41:35Malia, hurry, come on
00:41:39Let's go, come on
00:41:40Let's go, Malia, come on
00:41:43Mom!
00:41:44Faster!
00:41:47Hey, uh...
00:41:48Lakin's not here right now
00:41:50He just landed in New York
00:41:51New York, I know
00:41:52But it turns out
00:41:54I can't take Malia at all this week
00:41:56Going to LA
00:41:58Business trip
00:41:59So, she's all yours
00:42:01Oh, uh...
00:42:03I'm not really here to be childcare
00:42:04I'm sure you'll figure something out
00:42:07Mommy loves you, Malia
00:42:11I'll see you in two weeks, okay?
00:42:19Why doesn't you want to be with me?
00:42:22Hey, hey
00:42:24It's okay, Malia
00:42:25Alex, what's going on?
00:42:39Hey, we have a problem
00:42:40Camilla just dropped Malia off at the office and left
00:42:43She said she can't take care of this week after all
00:42:45What?
00:42:46Let me talk to her
00:42:48Hi, honey
00:42:53Are you okay?
00:42:53Hi
00:42:55Listen, uh...
00:42:57Mommy had to go away for a little bit, but, uh...
00:42:59I'm going to be back tonight
00:43:00And in the meantime, Alex is going to take care of you, okay?
00:43:02Everything is fine
00:43:03I love you
00:43:04I love you, too
00:43:05I should have known she'd pull a stunt like this
00:43:12So much for that family time she wanted
00:43:14I will book the first flight out this evening
00:43:17Okay
00:43:17Okay
00:43:18Okay, bye
00:43:20Okay, so we'll get you fed
00:43:30I can help you with your homework
00:43:31And by the time your dad gets back
00:43:33Is that too much rice?
00:43:37I'm sorry
00:43:38You have nothing to be sorry about
00:43:41Has your mom done this before?
00:43:50Sort of
00:43:51Sometimes she leaves me with someone with her friends for a few days
00:43:55So she can go on work trips
00:43:58Work trips
00:44:01Huh
00:44:02Does your dad know about this?
00:44:05I'm not supposed to tell him
00:44:07She says it's important for girls my age
00:44:10To be able to take care of themselves
00:44:12Shit
00:44:14I mean
00:44:15Shoot
00:44:16Oh my god
00:44:35Malia
00:44:35Malia
00:44:37I'm sorry
00:44:41I didn't mean to
00:44:43Better?
00:45:00Good
00:45:00How will we order some pizza?
00:45:06Oh
00:45:06Malia
00:45:30Do you want to tell me what made you so upset earlier?
00:45:34You can talk to me
00:45:41Believe me
00:45:43I understand
00:45:44What do you mean?
00:45:51It's from surgery
00:45:52I was born with a heart defect
00:45:55Just like you
00:45:56Really?
00:45:57Really?
00:46:00I didn't know anyone was like me
00:46:02Who is it?
00:46:23It's me
00:46:25I can
00:46:33Hi
00:46:34Hi
00:46:37Hi
00:46:37Can I see Malia?
00:46:40Yeah
00:46:40Daddy
00:46:54Shh
00:46:55Daddy, shh.
00:47:10It's okay, sweetie.
00:47:11I'm right here.
00:47:13Go back to sleep.
00:47:15No, stay.
00:47:18I can sleep on the couch.
00:47:21No, you stay too.
00:47:25It's all right with me.
00:47:55Where do you think you're going?
00:48:05To find Malia.
00:48:07I've already had the driver pick her up and take her to school.
00:48:11We're all alone.
00:48:15What about work?
00:48:16Time off for good behavior.
00:48:31Thank you again for taking care of her.
00:48:38It wasn't a problem.
00:48:39Apparently, it is for her mother.
00:48:49Let me make it up to you.
00:48:55How are you going to do that?
00:48:56I don't know if I can take it.
00:49:01Must be a monster in my life.
00:49:03Let me show you.
00:49:05Lately, it feels like I've been faking.
00:49:08Think there's a stranger here instead that you haven't led.
00:49:14Night, I lie awake when I escape this.
00:49:19Home, time, the air is changing.
00:49:23You're like the neighbors.
00:49:29Somewhere away from all these nightmares
00:49:33Where nobody can find me
00:49:37Let's run away
00:49:40Fire away from all the pain
00:49:43You know, I think more people should try co-workers with benefits.
00:50:00So you want to tell me what happened here?
00:50:08Not really.
00:50:08Sorry, I, um
00:50:13I was just curious
00:50:15Congenital heart defect
00:50:19You don't want to hear about it.
00:50:20It's too much.
00:50:21Too much?
00:50:23This condition, these bills
00:50:25This scar
00:50:27My parents were incredible
00:50:29They gave up everything for me
00:50:32They drained their savings
00:50:33In what little life of wealth
00:50:35They built for themselves to try
00:50:36And make my life normal
00:50:38And now they're gone
00:50:39Car accident
00:50:42When I was a senior
00:50:43In high school
00:50:44I begged them to have a night to themselves for once
00:50:48And then
00:50:48Alex
00:50:50Sorry, way too much information
00:50:53Especially from a fuck buddy
00:50:55You don't need to know my sob story
00:50:57You know that Malia's heart condition is congenital
00:51:03I know
00:51:04She told me
00:51:05Yeah, well, she doesn't know everything
00:51:08Look, I've never told anybody this, but
00:51:12Malia was born with her defect because Camilla
00:51:17She took diet pills during the pregnancy
00:51:21So she wouldn't gain weight
00:51:22Or lose out on modeling gigs
00:51:24I only found out before it was too late
00:51:27Oh my god
00:51:29It's terrible
00:51:31Truth is
00:51:33She never really wanted to have a baby
00:51:36I did
00:51:37I was the one who wanted us to be a happy family
00:51:40Turns out she was just in it for a meal ticket
00:51:44I'm so sorry, Lincoln
00:51:48The only reason she wants to get back together
00:51:53Is for the money
00:51:55Not for me
00:51:56And certainly not for her daughter
00:51:58You know, she's always been irresponsible
00:52:01But this latest stunt
00:52:03Abandoning her daughter like that
00:52:05Have you thought about pursuing soul custody?
00:52:10I want to
00:52:11But it's too risky
00:52:12I mean, the courts usually side with the mother
00:52:15I can't risk losing my daughter
00:52:16They don't always
00:52:19Malia told me this wasn't the first time Camilla's done something like this
00:52:25What did she say to you?
00:52:27Camilla leaves her with her friends when she goes on work trips
00:52:30It's dangerous
00:52:31And clearly her emotional needs aren't being met
00:52:34I think you could have a case here
00:52:36I don't know
00:52:37I don't want to put her through that
00:52:40I mean
00:52:40Making her testify against her own mother
00:52:43I can't do that
00:52:45I know you want what's best for Malia
00:52:47And sharing her with Camilla isn't it
00:52:50Maybe you should just give Camilla what she really wants
00:52:54And if that's money, fine
00:52:57You have it
00:52:58Malia deserves people
00:53:00In her life who care about her
00:53:02You're right
00:53:03Malia deserves better
00:53:05I will talk to her this week
00:53:09Thank you
00:53:18Seems like I owe you again
00:53:23Greedy?
00:53:28I meant breakfast
00:53:30You can cook
00:53:32Yes, I can
00:53:35For the right company
00:53:36Ta-da
00:53:46I should have known someone near Sugar would have such a sweet tooth
00:53:57Shit, fuck, I'm sorry
00:54:01I didn't mean to
00:54:02It's okay
00:54:04Really, it's
00:54:05Actually kind of nice to have someone call me by my real name again
00:54:09Thank you again for everything
00:54:12I know this wasn't part of the job description
00:54:15And I'm sure dealing with my ex
00:54:17And I'm sure dealing with my ex
00:54:18Wasn't what you had in mind when my dad hired you
00:54:20Great
00:54:24Not exactly
00:54:27He told you all of that?
00:54:33What are you, a miracle worker?
00:54:34What are you, a miracle worker?
00:54:35A saint?
00:54:36Hardly
00:54:37Look, if I tell you something, you promise not to say anything to anyone
00:54:44Cross my inner hope to die
00:54:47Your dad is paying me to do this
00:54:53To help Lakin
00:54:54That's what a job is
00:54:57You work for the company
00:54:58You know that, right?
00:54:59You don't understand
00:55:00Your dad offered to pay off my student loans
00:55:03And cover my medical bills for life
00:55:05If I stuck it out as Lakin's assistant
00:55:07He wanted me to keep him away from Camilla
00:55:10By any means necessary, he said
00:55:12Now that Lakin and I are
00:55:15Fucking like rabbits
00:55:16Coworkers with benefits, excuse me
00:55:20It just, it seems wrong not to tell him
00:55:24Why?
00:55:25Because you're helping him get his shit together and getting paid for it?
00:55:28Seems like a win-win to me
00:55:29It won't feel like that if he finds out
00:55:32He'll think I'm just using him
00:55:33Well, maybe he doesn't have to find out
00:55:36Chase, I can't keep lying to him
00:55:39I think
00:55:39I think I'm falling for him
00:55:43So more than co-workers with benefits
00:55:49Thanks for meeting me
00:55:59I wanted to talk to you about
00:56:02Your new girlfriend
00:56:03What?
00:56:05I know all about your little sleepover
00:56:07You know, I'd appreciate it if you told me
00:56:10Before bringing another woman into our daughter's life
00:56:13Especially that one
00:56:15What do you mean by that one?
00:56:18Alex actually stepped up when you abandoned her to go clubbing in LA
00:56:21It was a work trip
00:56:22Oh really?
00:56:32She's already proven to be way better at taking care of Malia than you've ever been
00:56:36Which is actually why I'm here
00:56:37Enough is enough
00:56:40I want sole custody
00:56:42So this is it?
00:56:46You want to break up our family for that lying little-
00:56:49You don't want a family
00:56:50You just want my money
00:56:51I see right through you, Camilla
00:56:53You think I want money?
00:56:56How much do you know about your little assistant?
00:56:58What do you mean?
00:56:59I hate to be the one to tell you this
00:57:06But that girl is using you, Lakin
00:57:10I overheard Jason Herr laughing about it in the break room earlier today
00:57:19What do you mean she's using me?
00:57:23The only reason why she's working for you
00:57:26Is because your dad promised to pay her medical bills
00:57:29If she kept you away from me
00:57:30No, she wouldn't do that
00:57:34That's not who she is
00:57:35If you don't believe me
00:57:37Just ask your dad
00:57:39Is it true?
00:57:50Lakin, what are you doing here?
00:57:52Did you hire Alex in order to keep tabs on me?
00:57:58It was for your own good
00:57:59Do not give me that father-knows-best routine
00:58:02This is a complete betrayal of my trust
00:58:04Your personal issues were affecting not only the business but our family
00:58:08That is absurd
00:58:09This has nothing to do with the company
00:58:11Your inability to cut Camilla from your life seriously calls into question your abilities as a leader
00:58:17As it does the way you've closed yourself off from any connection, romantic or-
00:58:21So what? I can't be CEO if I don't open my heart?
00:58:24That is bullshit
00:58:25My love life is none of your business
00:58:27But the well-being of my granddaughter still is
00:58:31Alex is a smart girl with a good heart
00:58:35She cares about Malia
00:58:37And she challenges you
00:58:39She's fired
00:58:41Thanks to you
00:58:43What are you doing here?
00:59:08We need to talk
00:59:11We are?
00:59:14You want to explain what you were doing with your ex looking like you're getting back together?
00:59:19Is that why you haven't gotten custody of Malia?
00:59:22Because you still love her?
00:59:23God, I'm so fucking stupid
00:59:25Were you ever going to tell me about your little deal with my dad?
00:59:29God, Alex
00:59:30I trusted you
00:59:33I told you things that I've never even told my family
00:59:36And this whole time
00:59:37You were just in it for the money
00:59:40That was before anything happened between us
00:59:45Lakin, I couldn't say no
00:59:47That kind of money
00:59:49You know my situation
00:59:50But I never meant to hurt you
00:59:52And fucking me, what?
00:59:53That was just a way to ensure job security?
00:59:56That's all I am to you
00:59:57Just a transaction?
00:59:59Of course not
00:59:59How dare you?
01:00:03Why should I believe you?
01:00:06You know, you're just like her
01:00:08I am not like Camilla
01:00:10Lakin, I care about you
01:00:13You're fired
01:00:13And this thing between us
01:00:15That's over too
01:00:17Let's go
01:00:47Rocky Road, huh?
01:01:14I've got the perfect pairing
01:01:17You're going to let me in or what?
01:01:24You are out of your mind
01:01:26Showing up here is insane
01:01:28Like you don't fucking love it
01:01:29I don't
01:01:31I've changed
01:01:33I've heard that before
01:01:34God, it turns me on when you act like you're doing it
01:01:37Alright, this is like a pandemic level
01:01:39Of Postmates orders
01:01:40Have you left your house yet?
01:01:42Well, I'm going to try and get my old job back
01:01:44So I'll probably be out of the house five days a week
01:01:47Girl, losing your job and getting dumped on the same days a lot
01:01:51You can take some time to mourn
01:01:53I can't waste any more time on Lakin
01:01:57I was so stupid thinking you actually cared about me
01:02:02What's wrong with me?
01:02:16Nothing
01:02:16Absolutely nothing
01:02:20I'm sorry
01:02:27I just
01:02:29I think I want to be alone tonight
01:02:34Hey
01:02:40Text me, okay?
01:02:44Just because we don't work together doesn't mean we're not friends
01:02:46We will
01:02:49I promise
01:02:51Wait
01:02:55What's wrong with me?
01:03:17Hey
01:03:18Hey
01:03:18Hey
01:03:19Hey
01:03:19Hey
01:03:19Hey
01:03:20Hey
01:03:21Hey
01:03:21Hey
01:03:22Hey
01:03:22Hey
01:03:23Hey
01:03:24Hey, I'd like to apply for a job.
01:03:52I used to work here.
01:03:54Hey kid, come on man, open up.
01:04:05You really need to give me a key.
01:04:09You want a drink?
01:04:10Yeah, where are your glasses?
01:04:12Second cabinet to the left.
01:04:22You broke up with Alex.
01:04:25Can't really break up with someone you weren't dating.
01:04:28We were just fucking and now we're not.
01:04:31I'm supposed to believe you don't give a shit.
01:04:35I don't.
01:04:36Is that why you're drowning your sorrows in whiskey?
01:04:41Very dramatic by the way.
01:04:43What do you care?
01:04:44She's all yours now.
01:04:46Her little deal with dad is mute and now you two can finally be together.
01:04:50Jesus Christ, Lakin, I'm gay.
01:04:55Yeah.
01:04:57You're always so wrapped up in your own shit you never thought to ask your brother about his own life.
01:05:06I'm sorry.
01:05:07Really.
01:05:08I can't believe I didn't...
01:05:17Are you good?
01:05:19I'm good.
01:05:36Suddenly, so many things make sense to me now.
01:05:40But you're always flirting with her, Alex.
01:05:43I was trying to light a fire under your ass.
01:05:45She's a good person, Lakin.
01:05:49She cares about you.
01:05:50A lot.
01:05:51She hated the deal.
01:05:54She hated lying to you.
01:05:56She knew you wouldn't trust her.
01:05:59And why should I?
01:06:03Cause not everyone's Camilla.
01:06:10Look, it's not too late to make it right.
01:06:16Call her.
01:06:29You get transcript.
01:06:30I'm to Charlie about doper party.
01:06:32I'm not sorry.
01:06:33She went on as a rapper.
01:06:34You stay like.
01:06:35Sophia!
01:06:36Heard kidding me, teacher?
01:06:37They made channel realizing 7 times.
01:06:38That's too late.
01:06:39The people that died.
01:06:40A couple years ago.
01:06:41There were some things back then,
01:06:42they turned away.
01:06:43It started suis gens of Sahaja.
01:06:44I love you.
01:06:45I know you're blind.
01:06:46espe Warum camilla.
01:06:47Oh me.
01:06:48I did ΠΏΠΎΡ‡Π΅ΠΌΡƒ.
01:06:49I love you.
01:06:50Cause I love you.
01:06:51I love you.
01:06:52I love you.
01:06:53You're champs.
01:06:54I love you.
01:06:55You never heard someone like me.
01:06:57I love you.
01:06:58Fuck him.
01:07:28So, that's $250,000 a year? Every year?
01:07:38Until Malia's 18th birthday.
01:07:41So, in nine more years then?
01:07:43Eight. You don't even know how old your daughter is?
01:07:58Pleasure doing business with you.
01:08:12You don't want to say goodbye? She's upstairs waiting.
01:08:15I can't. I have a flight to Miami in an hour.
01:08:18Give her a kiss for me, will you?
01:08:20Good fucking riddance.
01:08:33I'm proud of you, son.
01:08:35It only took me a decade to cut her out of my life for good.
01:08:38I am going to speak to the board in the morning, all right?
01:08:41Well, if you gentlemen will excuse me, I have a granddaughter to comfort.
01:08:53Congrats, bro. Let's celebrate.
01:08:56Come on. We should be celebrating.
01:09:09Ding-dong, the witch agreed to settle.
01:09:13Yeah.
01:09:14And now Malia has to live the rest of her life,
01:09:16knowing that her mother didn't care enough about her to fight for custody.
01:09:19Okay. On the positive side, Malia's all yours now.
01:09:23You're going to be CEO in a month.
01:09:25What else could you want?
01:09:28Maybe a certain little assistant that help you get custody.
01:09:32She blocked my number.
01:09:34And no, I'm not going to show up to her doorstep on my knees,
01:09:37begging for her to take me back.
01:09:39It would make me look insane.
01:09:41Well, insane or romantic.
01:09:46She doesn't want to speak to me.
01:09:49And I don't blame her.
01:09:51Well, I can't guarantee she'll take you back,
01:09:53but I may have a hot tip on where you can find her.
01:09:58She's working here again?
01:10:02Is that why you brought me here?
01:10:03Go get her.
01:10:04Hi.
01:10:20Ready to order?
01:10:21I'll come back in a few more minutes.
01:10:30Alex.
01:10:30What are you doing here?
01:10:36Uh, Jace brought me to celebrate.
01:10:41I won full custody.
01:10:44Congratulations.
01:10:45Yeah, I, um...
01:10:47I couldn't have done it without you.
01:10:49Uh...
01:10:50Alex, I, um...
01:10:52I want to apologize.
01:10:54I made a huge mistake.
01:10:55Thanks.
01:10:57I...
01:10:58I actually need to take my break right now.
01:11:05Okay.
01:11:10You okay?
01:11:12You okay?
01:11:14Help!
01:11:16Someone call 911!
01:11:18Help!
01:11:19It's okay.
01:11:20Dr. Bedger!
01:11:31Amazing, Dr. Bedger!
01:11:32Amazing, Dr. Bedger!
01:11:38Any update?
01:11:44There's only so much that they'll tell me right now,
01:11:46but the doctor said that she's in critical condition.
01:11:51They're going to operate tomorrow.
01:11:54And then her chances are 50-50.
01:11:57Jesus.
01:11:59Her heart must be overwhelmed by all the stress.
01:12:03The stress that I fucking caused her.
01:12:07And seeing me at the restaurant, that couldn't help either.
01:12:10I should have just left her alone.
01:12:12It's not your fault, Lincoln.
01:12:13And now Alex could...
01:12:17She could...
01:12:17Hey, stop.
01:12:19Don't talk like that.
01:12:40Hey, Lincoln.
01:12:43Oh my God, Alex, you're awake.
01:12:46Jesus Christ.
01:12:48I was so worried.
01:12:49I thought...
01:12:50I thought that I might have lost you.
01:12:57I'm fine.
01:12:59You should leave.
01:13:01What?
01:13:02What are you talking about?
01:13:04I...
01:13:04Lincoln, why are you here?
01:13:06I'm here because I care about you.
01:13:08Because...
01:13:08Because you feel guilty.
01:13:11This is what you do.
01:13:13You throw money at your problems to make yourself feel better.
01:13:16No.
01:13:16It's not like that.
01:13:18I don't want to be your charity case, Lincoln.
01:13:21I don't want to feel like I owe you or anyone again.
01:13:24You are not a burden.
01:13:28I don't think that.
01:13:31I'd like you to go.
01:13:40I do.
01:13:41I don't know.
01:14:11Morning, sleepyhead.
01:14:21It's good to see you awake.
01:14:23You had me worried there for a minute.
01:14:29I got you something.
01:14:41This almost makes me wish I hadn't made it.
01:14:50Where did all the flowers come from?
01:14:53It was Dad.
01:14:55You felt horrible he wasn't here after your episode,
01:14:57so he's been helping out with Muya while Aiken watches over you here.
01:15:01Dad paid for everything your insurance didn't cover.
01:15:04Fancy pacemaker, extra care, you name it.
01:15:08He shouldn't have.
01:15:09You made a deal, Alex.
01:15:11Dad was good for it. It's done.
01:15:15I don't deserve it.
01:15:17What are you talking about?
01:15:19Look at me, Jace.
01:15:20I'm literally fucking scarred. Why should I-
01:15:22Hey, Alex.
01:15:25You deserve love.
01:15:29It's about time you get out of your own way and realize that.
01:15:41I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I just-
01:15:42I thought you might need some help.
01:15:44Doctor said no unnecessary stress.
01:15:46Jesus.
01:15:57Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.
01:15:59Fuck.
01:16:00I'm sorry, I just...
01:16:02I thought you might need some help.
01:16:05Doctor said no unnecessary stress.
01:16:07Well, then you shouldn't have shown up.
01:16:13Sorry.
01:16:14Thank you, but I've got it from here.
01:16:17Alex, you're recovering from surgery.
01:16:20Let me at least help you inside.
01:16:44Malia asks about you all the time, you know.
01:16:50She misses you.
01:16:52Everyone misses you.
01:16:54My dad, Jace,
01:16:57and me.
01:16:59It was wrong of me to accuse you of only wanting my money.
01:17:07I can see that now.
01:17:09I've just...
01:17:10I've spent my whole life thinking that I had to buy love.
01:17:12And I've just been hurt so many times.
01:17:15It's hard to comprehend that a woman could see me as anything other than a blank check.
01:17:19What you told me about your parents
01:17:25and how they sacrificed everything for you,
01:17:28do you really think that what they did for you makes you a burden?
01:17:32They lost everything they had because of me.
01:17:35Hey, but Alex, don't you think that if they were given the chance to do it all over again,
01:17:39they would do it exactly the same?
01:17:40That's not sacrifice.
01:17:44That's love.
01:17:46I've been thinking about it a lot.
01:17:49About what it means to give without expecting anything in return.
01:17:54I can't change the fact that I've been given more than most.
01:17:58But what you've taught me,
01:18:01what your parents have taught me,
01:18:03is that
01:18:04supporting someone,
01:18:07it's not about an obligation
01:18:08or to force an outcome.
01:18:11It is simply because
01:18:13you love them.
01:18:17Miss Livingston,
01:18:19you are the most
01:18:21selfless,
01:18:23independent,
01:18:25strong,
01:18:26and beautiful woman that I have ever met in my entire life.
01:18:31I can't stop.
01:18:33It's true.
01:18:36And since you clearly don't believe me,
01:18:38I guess I'll just have to prove it to you.
01:18:42Prove it?
01:18:43How?
01:18:52Is that...
