00:08:40this bark's worse than his bite trust me i'm jace lucifer's angelic younger brother you are
00:08:50alex lincoln's new assistant and uh it would be great if you didn't mention that super
00:08:55unprofessional name calling i've said worse your secret's safe with me
00:08:59alex get in here we need to roll some calls to south korea you're gonna need that coming
00:09:09we're still evaluating the chicago hub closure it's costing us labor shortages
00:09:19at key distribution centers are already slowing down operation times and shifting our operations
00:09:26to detroit might create bottlenecks we just can't afford right now so what we're just going to bleed
00:09:31cash while you evaluate i need solutions faster not more excuses people we're exploring alternatives
00:09:40nothing definitive yet
00:09:45um sorry to interrupt
00:09:50but have you considered splitting freight between detroit and cleveland and using your existing rail
00:09:55contracts to offset the overflow
00:09:56uh so what you're you're now an expert in freight logistics uh no but i was looking over last
00:10:06quarter's regional expense report while it could be off but cleveland's underutilized and you're
00:10:11already paying for the rail infrastructure it wouldn't solve all of your problems but it could
00:10:16keep the detroit bottleneck from shutting you down entirely actually that could work worth a shot
00:10:22i mean obviously my team would need to take a look at it and sort out the details
00:10:29is there anything else i should know about my business not yet
00:10:38uh you heard her let's uh let's move on this right away that'll be all
00:10:44alex has to go absolutely not she stays look dad i understand that i've been through an assistant or
00:10:54two seven this year this girl is overstepping she's jumping on executive leadership calls yes
00:11:01she was right but she is undermining me in front of my team how is that supposed to strengthen my
00:11:06position with the board so you want to fire her for being too good at her job lincoln a good leader
00:11:12isn't threatened by his employees threatened i am not threatened by her but she makes it look like
00:11:18i've lost control well the board already thinks you've lost control this constant personnel turnover
00:11:24makes you look indecisive and weak you have to keep alex oh what are you saying you fire her and the
00:11:35board will find another ceo

00:15:35It better be, it costs $15,000
00:15:37We are celebrating, Mr. CEO
00:15:40Not until after I get board approval
00:15:42So, what did you want to talk to me about?
00:15:52Malia and I thought it would be nice
00:15:55To spend more time as a family
00:15:57It's not easy on her poor little heart
00:16:00Malia, honey, you and I talked about this, right?
00:16:05Your mother and I love you very much
00:16:07It's just
00:16:09It's not easy for us to be around each other right now
00:16:14Maybe
00:16:16We could try a little harder
00:16:20Hey
00:16:28I just wanted to give you a status report before I head home
00:16:31Thank you, Ms. Livingston
00:16:33So, regarding South Korea
00:16:37I'm scheduling a Zoom for next week
00:16:39I'm working
00:16:40I can, are you listening to me?
00:16:54Sorry, as I was saying
00:16:58Where was I?
00:17:00You can just take your top off
00:17:01Oh my god, I meant
00:17:04You can just take it from the top
00:17:06I gotta go
00:17:11No soy sauce in this whole building
00:17:24They're still here
00:17:27That's surprising
00:17:28You and my brother getting along better?
00:17:32Yeah, everything's just peachy
00:17:34So, that little argument you guys had the other day
00:17:39What was that, a lover's quarrel?
00:17:42Look who's blushing
00:17:43I am not blushing
00:17:46And that wasn't a lover's quarrel
00:17:48He doesn't like me like that
00:17:50So he didn't run after you in the elevator
00:17:53And sweep you off your feet?
00:17:55Chase
00:17:55Lakin
00:17:57So we were just talking about you
00:18:00Lovely assistant you've got here
00:18:02Such a sweetheart
00:18:03Anywho, I gotta go
00:18:04I'll talk to you later, Alex
00:18:05You needed me for something?
00:18:09The company's hosting a charity
00:18:13Fundraiser tomorrow night
00:18:14And I need you to go with me
00:18:16You need a date?
00:18:19No, what I need is my assistant close by
00:18:22So, if you have any plans
00:18:25Just go ahead and cancel them
00:18:27And here
00:18:28Take my card and buy yourself a dress this afternoon
00:18:31Try to keep it under $10,000, alright?
00:18:35No problem
00:18:36I'll ride my unicorn over to the mall after lunch
00:18:38Got it
00:18:42Under $10,000
00:18:43Oh
00:18:46And seeing as I'm buying
00:18:48I like red
00:18:51And seeing as I'm buying
00:19:09And seeing as I'm speaking about by regard to the mall goes
00:19:15Go ahead
00:19:15And seeing as I can see any sudden
00:19:47I thought I said I like red.
00:20:00Did you?
00:20:02Oops.
00:20:03Must have slipped my mind.
00:20:17It looks like we're almost there.
00:20:29Remember, this is a work event.
00:20:32The whole board is going to be there.
00:20:34It's easy on the drinks.
00:20:35Do as I say, not as I do.
00:20:51You ready?
00:20:54It's easy.
00:21:24So, Miss Livingston, I was looking over the official guest list for the party tonight,
00:21:38and you lied to me.
00:21:42Your name's not Alexandra, is it?
00:21:45I thought only HR saw that.
00:21:52Oh, don't be embarrassed, sugar.
00:21:55I think that's a very sweet name.
00:21:57I'm not embarrassed.
00:21:58It's just private.
00:22:00My parents were the only ones who called me that.
00:22:08I see.
00:22:11I apologize.
00:22:12I didn't know.
00:22:14I didn't mean to upset you.
00:22:17Hey.
00:22:18Alex.
00:22:23I mean, I'm sorry.
00:22:31I think I owe you a drink.
00:22:34I'll be right back.
00:22:35Look at you.
00:22:43You look stunning.
00:22:46See the dress?
00:22:50Let's get to turn you and me straight.
00:22:52Picked it out just for you.
00:22:53It's perfect.
00:22:54May I have this dance, my lady?
00:22:55For you.
00:23:16Hey, bro.
00:23:17Is that for me?
00:23:18Get your own drink, bro.
00:23:19And maybe your own date while you're at it.
00:23:21Dane?
00:23:25I knew it.
00:23:26My guest.
00:23:27You know what I mean.
00:23:28Yeah, sure.
00:23:28I know what you mean.
00:23:29I'll take that.
00:23:30I'll leave you guys to it.
00:23:44It's just a dance.
00:23:45Do not be weird about this.
00:23:47Oh, I'm being weird?
00:23:48Everyone else is dancing.
00:23:50It would look strange if we didn't.
00:23:52And besides, it's not like we're attracted to each other, right?
00:23:59Right.
00:24:11So, something going on between you and my brother?
00:24:17Jase?
00:24:18Of course not.
00:24:18That was nothing.
00:24:20It didn't look like nothing.
00:24:23If I didn't know any better, I'd say you sound jealous.
00:24:27Don't be ridiculous.
00:24:29I'm just looking out for my assistant.
00:24:34Well, I doubt he's interested.
00:24:36He's, you know.
00:24:39He's what?
00:24:40You don't know.
00:24:41You don't know?
00:24:43Never mind.
00:24:46So, you guys aren't that close then.
00:24:50Well, excuse me if I don't have time to listen to my brother's sexual exploits.
00:24:53If you hadn't noticed, if you hadn't noticed, I'm somewhat busy running the largest shipping company in America.
00:24:58It's important to make time for family, Lincoln.
00:25:01That's none of your concern.
00:25:03Just focus on steering clear of an office romance, Miss Livingston.
00:25:09It's unprofessional.
00:25:10What?
00:25:11I don't know.
00:25:12I don't know.
00:25:13I don't know.
00:25:14I don't know.
00:25:15I don't know.
00:25:16This is just two co-workers dancing.
00:25:19Right.
00:25:20A totally normal boss slash assistant slow dance.
00:25:25It's completely innocent.
00:25:27Hmm.
00:25:28They're barely touching.
00:25:34Lincoln.
00:25:37Dad.
00:25:39Well, some of our board members are already here.
00:25:42I need you to make your rounds.
00:25:45Miss Livingston?
00:25:47Shall we?
00:25:53Well, Mr. Harris was just saying that he was very impressed with your recent progress.
00:25:58Wonderful to see that you're finally settling in, Lincoln.
00:26:05Miss Livingston has been a welcomed addition.
00:26:08Oh, yes.
00:26:09Detroit and Cleveland.
00:26:11Nice work.
00:26:12Yes, and we're also improving transit times.
00:26:15I'll actually be in New York next week.
00:26:27Team there and finalizing everything, making sure everything's running smoothly.
00:26:31I like it.
00:26:32What are you doing here?
00:26:34I just thought I'd stop by.
00:26:35I thought you could use the moral support.
00:26:38Where's Malia?
00:26:39I got a babysitter.
00:26:40I think everyone knows Camilla, Malia's mother.
00:26:48Who's this?
00:26:49Uh, no one.
00:26:51Just, uh, my assistant.
00:26:52Alex, nice to meet you, Alice.
00:26:58As I was saying, the transit times in New York, I really...
00:27:02Oh, come on, Lincoln.
00:27:03Don't be a bore.
00:27:04It's a party.
00:27:06No one wants to talk about business.
00:27:07Am I right?
00:27:09Let's dance.
00:27:10Maybe later, these gentlemen are on the board.
00:27:14You don't mind if I steal them, do you?
00:27:25What are you doing?
00:27:27Are you drunk?
00:27:27The whole office is here.
00:27:29We never have any time together.
00:27:30And there's a reason for that, Camilla.
00:27:32We're not together anymore.
00:27:34You made that perfectly clear when you fucked my best friend.
00:27:36Oh, come on, Lincoln.
00:27:39I'm sorry if I embarrassed you.
00:27:41I just...
00:27:43I miss you.
00:27:46And I was thinking about how we used to come to these things together.
00:27:50I was hoping you'd dance with me.
00:27:53For all time's sake.
00:27:57One dance.
00:28:06Excuse me, gentlemen.
00:28:18Doesn't this feel nice?
00:28:21I know you miss this.
00:28:27This is a work event, Camilla.
00:28:30Flax, Lincoln.
00:28:31So tense.
00:28:33I could fix that, you know.
00:28:36What do you want, hmm?
00:28:38And don't give me some bullshit about missing me.
00:28:41I know you.
00:28:42You want money, don't you?
00:28:44Have you given any more thought to the conversation we had the other day?
00:28:49Malia's getting older.
00:28:51It's only getting harder to take care of her, especially with her situation.
00:28:56We should be a family.
00:28:58We tried.
00:28:59And failed miserably.
00:29:01I can't be with you, Camilla.
00:29:03Are you sure about that?
00:29:06Camilla, don't.
00:29:08Kiss me.
00:29:09If you don't feel anything, I'll leave you alone.
00:29:17Stop.
00:29:17Jesus.
00:29:21Don't tell me you didn't enjoy that.
00:29:24Lincoln, are you listening to me?
00:29:26Look at me.
00:29:29You don't want me to make a scene, do you?
00:29:32Because you know I will.
00:29:35Let me make something very clear to you.
00:29:38We are never getting back together, Camilla.
00:29:40You hear me?
00:29:41Ever.
00:29:42Now, you need to go.
00:29:44But...
00:29:45Right now.
00:29:45Right now.
00:29:45Not having any fun?
00:30:10Yeah.
00:30:10Oh.
00:30:15Let's see if we can change that.
00:30:25This is my mom's 60th birthday, right?
00:30:28And her sorority sisters are drinking me under the table.
00:30:32And Agnes, her old roommate, slept with the bartender.
00:30:37So it's the last call, right?
00:30:38I go up to the bar looking for this guy.
00:30:40Aggie's dragging him to the bathroom.
00:30:41Oh, my God.
00:30:43Stop.
00:30:45Something funny?
00:30:51Time to go.
00:31:04Arturo.
00:31:06Take Miss Livingston home.
00:31:07You're being incredibly rude.
00:31:09You know that?
00:31:09You're getting wasted at a company party.
00:31:12It's totally inappropriate.
00:31:13Don't you inappropriate me.
00:31:16Your girlfriend was treating you like a stripper pole.
00:31:17You made out in front of everyone.
00:31:19Okay, first of all, she's my ex.
00:31:22And second of all, I can do whatever I want.
00:31:24I'm a CEO.
00:31:26Interrupt.
00:31:27Right.
00:31:28Is that why you're cozying up to my dad?
00:31:31What, my title not good enough for you?
00:31:32Charm your way up the corporate ladder?
00:31:34CEO this week, chairman the next.
00:31:37Meanwhile, you're wasted hanging all over Jace.
00:31:39What do you care anyway?
00:31:41I thought you weren't attracted to me.
00:31:43I'm not.
00:31:45Oh, yeah?
00:31:46Yeah.
00:31:48Liar.
00:31:48I didn't expect you to have tattoos.
00:32:13Yeah, well, there's a lot you don't know about me.
00:32:15That cost $8,000.
00:32:25Yeah, my fucking money.
00:32:28Now get the hell over here.
00:32:36Is that a scar?
00:32:39It's odd.
00:32:43Fuck me.
00:32:45Leave us at some mouth away.
00:32:48Tonight that we both go home.
00:32:50I wanna be with you.
00:32:52I wanna be with you.
00:32:54We can't let this slip away.
00:32:56You know, I won't do this thing.
00:32:58Cause I wanna be with you.
00:33:00I wanna be with you.
00:33:02I run away.
00:33:03We can't let this go to waste.
00:33:05I don't wanna go to your house.
00:33:08Don't let this go to waste.
00:33:12Don't let this go to waste.
00:33:12I don't mean to be with you.
00:33:15I wanna be with you.
00:33:16You, uh, want to come inside?
00:33:44Uh, no.
00:33:50Right, no, of course not.
00:33:55Well, I guess I'll see you on Monday.
00:34:14Morning.
00:34:18Morning.
00:34:24I can't believe I risked my job for a guy who doesn't give two shits about me.
00:34:32It's not your fault.
00:34:34Laken barely gives a shit about his own family, you know?
00:34:36Me.
00:34:37Dad.
00:34:38But I've seen how he is with Malia and...
00:34:41She's a soft spot.
00:34:43Laken's got some serious trust issues.
00:34:45Like, he needs therapy about it.
00:34:48Camila really messed him up.
00:34:51Look, I consider myself a feminist, right?
00:34:54That bitch is a gold digger.
00:34:56I mean, she was basically using him to bankroll her modeling career.
00:34:59It took him, like, three years to come to his senses, and when he finally did,
00:35:02oh, surprise, surprise, guess who's suddenly pregnant?
00:35:06Jesus.
00:35:09Maybe it's just best to pretend like this never happened.
00:35:12It sounds like he's been through a lot.
00:35:15Look, I gotta run to a meeting.
00:35:22How about you come over for dinner tonight?
00:35:24Seven?
00:35:25I'll text you the details.
00:35:27Yeah, I'm down.
00:35:29Great.
00:35:45I can't remember the last time you had us over for dinner.
00:35:52Dad insisted.
00:35:54Something about never getting to see Malia these days.
00:35:57I wanted to have the gala post-mortem at the office.
00:36:00You know, like normal business partners and not...
00:36:02Family members.
00:36:04Exactly.
00:36:09Did you give Alex a ride on Saturday?
00:36:12Grandpa, I told you it's me.
00:36:18You?
00:36:19Ah, you're too tall.
00:36:21No, my Malia, last time I saw her, she was just about my knee high.
00:36:25Ain't anybody seen my granddaughter?
00:36:27Hmm.
00:36:28Cause this little woman is an imposter.
00:36:32Are we expecting company?
00:36:42Tell him to send an extra plate.
00:36:52Alex?
00:36:53Lincoln?
00:36:54You made it!
00:36:55Uh...
00:37:18Didn't realize you were joining us, Alex.
00:37:22Me neither.
00:37:25It's okay.
00:37:26I don't like asparagus either.
00:37:27My dad says I have to eat it because it's healthy for me.
00:37:40He's right.
00:37:41It is.
00:37:42Look on the bright side.
00:37:43At least it's not brussel sprouts, am I right?
00:37:47That was delicious.
00:37:48All right.
00:37:49Miss Livingston.
00:37:50A word.
00:37:51Uh, Mr. Blainford.
00:37:52Uh, Mr. Blainford.
00:37:53About the other night, I know the gala was a mess with Camilla.
00:38:06Alex.
00:38:07I've seen a change in my son.
00:38:08Really?
00:38:09It's the first time I've seen him smile in years.
00:38:10Keep doing what you're doing.
00:38:11You planned this, didn't you?
00:38:12I just thought I'd give you and Lincoln some time alone.
00:38:14Thank you, Jace.
00:38:15You're very welcome.
00:38:16Jace, don't.
00:38:17Bye-bye.
00:38:18Want to watch Disney with us?
00:38:19Uh, you have a spelling test to study for, remember?
00:38:21But I want to hang out with Alex.
00:38:22I want to hang out with Alex.
00:38:23I don't know how the gala was a mess with Camilla.
00:38:24I don't know how the gala was a mess with Camilla.
00:38:25Alex.
00:38:26I've seen a change in my son.
00:38:27Really?
00:38:28It's the first time I've seen him smile in years.
00:38:29Keep doing what you're doing.
00:38:30I don't know how to do it.
00:38:31I don't know how to do it.
00:38:32You're right.
00:38:33I want to be able to figure out how to do it.
00:38:35Why?
00:38:36Hey, boy.
00:38:37I just thought I'd give you and Lincoln some time alone.
00:38:39Thank you, Jace.
00:38:40You're very welcome.
00:38:41Jace, don't.
00:38:42Bye.
00:38:43Wanna watch Disney with us?
00:38:44Uh, you have a spelling test to study for, remember?
00:38:46But I want to hang out with Alex.
00:38:47Please, Daddy.
00:38:48Please.
00:38:49Works for me.
00:38:54I'll be right back
00:39:24She likes you, you know
00:39:51She's not normally so comfortable with strangers
00:39:55I like her too
00:39:57So are we going to figure out what happened
00:40:07Or did I just fuck myself out of a job
00:40:10Your job is not in danger
00:40:14Okay, that doesn't totally answer my question
00:40:20What do you want me to say, Alex?
00:40:24I can't get involved with my assistant
00:40:28Not with the board watching my every move
00:40:30But I also can't accept the fact that
00:40:35Saturday night was the last time that we'll ever
00:40:37I thought I did something wrong
00:40:42I want you, Alex
00:40:44That's the problem
00:40:46What if we separate church and state
00:40:56At work, we're professional
00:41:01But outside of work, we're
00:41:04Unprofessional
00:41:06I think the light is like
00:41:08I'm asleep walking through
00:41:11All of my problems
00:41:13I know
00:41:13I can't make it through
00:41:17Every night is the same
00:41:19I keep running fast
00:41:21Left and right
00:41:23Wondering where my head's gone now
00:41:25I'm asleep walking through
00:41:29All of my problems
00:41:31Let's go, Leah, come on
00:41:40Mom!
00:41:41Faster!
00:41:43Hey, uh, Lincoln's not here right now
00:41:47He just landed in New York
00:41:48New York
00:41:48I know
00:41:49But it turns out
00:41:51I can't take Malia at all this week
00:41:53Going to LA
00:41:55Business trip
00:41:56So, she's all yours
00:41:58Oh, uh, I'm not really here to be child care
00:42:02I'm sure you'll figure something out
00:42:04Mommy loves you, Malia
00:42:08I'll see you in two weeks, okay?
00:42:16Why doesn't you want to be with me?
00:42:19Hey, hey
00:42:20It's okay, Malia
00:42:22Alex, what's going on?
00:42:36Hey, we have a problem
00:42:37Camilla just dropped Malia off at the office and left
00:42:40She said she can't take care of this week after all
00:42:42What?
00:42:43Let me talk to her
00:42:44Hi, honey
00:42:50Are you okay?
00:42:50Hi
00:42:51Listen, uh
00:42:53Mommy had to go away for a little bit
00:42:55But, uh
00:42:56I'm going to be back tonight
00:42:57And in the meantime
00:42:57Alex is going to take care of you, okay?
00:42:59Everything is fine
00:43:00I love you
00:43:01I love you, too
00:43:02I should have known she'd pull a stunt like this
00:43:09So much for that family time she wanted
00:43:11I will book the first flight out this evening
00:43:14Okay
00:43:15Okay
00:43:16Bye
00:43:17Okay, so we'll get you fed
00:43:26I can help you with your homework
00:43:28And by the time your dad gets back
00:43:30Is that too much rice?
00:43:34I'm sorry
00:43:35You have nothing to be sorry about
00:43:38Has your mom done this before?
00:43:47Sort of
00:43:48Sometimes she leaves me with someone with her friends for a few days
00:43:52So she can go on work trips
00:43:55Work trips
00:43:58Huh
00:43:59Does your dad know about this?
00:44:02I'm not supposed to tell him
00:44:04She says it's important for girls my age to be able to take care of themselves
00:44:09Shit
00:44:11I mean
00:44:12Shoot
00:44:13Oh my god, Malia
00:44:32Malia
00:44:33Malia
00:44:34I'm sorry
00:44:38I didn't mean to
00:44:40Better?
00:44:53Better?
00:44:57Good
00:44:57How will we order some pizza?
00:45:26Malia?
00:45:27Do you want to tell me what made you so upset earlier?
00:45:36You can talk to me
00:45:38Believe me
00:45:40I understand
00:45:41What do you mean?
00:45:48It's from surgery
00:45:49I was born with a heart defect
00:45:52Just like you
00:45:53Really?
00:45:54Really?
00:45:54I didn't know anyone was like me
00:45:57I didn't know anyone was like me
00:45:59Who is it?
00:46:21It's me.
00:46:29Lakin, hi.
00:46:33Hi.
00:46:35Can I see Malia?
00:46:37Daddy.
00:47:05It's okay, sweetie.
00:47:08I'm right here.
00:47:10Go back to sleep.
00:47:12Oh, stay.
00:47:15I can sleep on the couch.
00:47:18No, you stay too.
00:47:23It's all right with me.
00:47:24Okay.
00:47:35Where do you think you're going?
00:48:01To find Malia?
00:48:04I've already had the driver pick her up and take her to school.
00:48:08We're all alone.
00:48:12What about work?
00:48:16Time off for good behavior.
00:48:17Thank you again for taking care of her.
00:48:35It wasn't a problem.
00:48:36Apparently, it is for her mother.
00:48:46Let me make it up to you.
00:48:52How are you going to do that?
00:48:53Let me show you.
00:49:01Let me show you.
00:49:01You're like the neighbor.
00:49:25You know, I think more people should try coworkers with benefits.
00:49:51So you want to tell me what happened here?
00:50:04Not really.
00:50:05Sorry, I, um, I was just curious.
00:50:14Congenital heart defect.
00:50:16You don't want to hear about it.
00:50:17It's too much.
00:50:18Too much?
00:50:19This condition, these bills, this scar.
00:50:24My parents were incredible.
00:50:27They gave up everything for me.
00:50:29They drained their savings in what little life of wealth they built for themselves to try and make my life normal.
00:50:36And now they're gone.
00:50:38Car accident.
00:50:39When I was a senior in high school.
00:50:42I begged them to have a night to themselves for once and then.
00:50:47Alex.
00:50:47Sorry, way too much information.
00:50:51Especially from a fuck buddy.
00:50:52You don't need to know my sob story.
00:50:57You know that Malia's heart condition is congenital.
00:51:00I know.
00:51:01She told me.
00:51:03Yeah, well, she doesn't know everything.
00:51:04Look, I've never told anybody this, but Malia was more with her defect because Camilla, she took diet pills during the pregnancy so she wouldn't gain weight or lose out on modeling gigs.
00:51:21Because I only found out before it was too late.
00:51:25Oh my god.
00:51:27It's terrible.
00:51:29Truth is, she never really wanted to have a baby.
00:51:33I did.
00:51:34I was the one who wanted us to be a happy family.
00:51:39Turns out she was just in it for a meal ticket.
00:51:41I'm so sorry, Lincoln.
00:51:47And the only reason she wants to get back together is for the money.
00:51:52Not for me, and certainly not for her daughter.
00:51:55You know, she's always been irresponsible, but this latest stunt, abandoning her daughter like that, it's...
00:52:04Have you thought about pursuing sole custody?
00:52:07I want to, but it's too risky.
00:52:10The courts usually side with the mother.
00:52:12I can't risk losing my daughter.
00:52:14They don't always...
00:52:18Malia told me this wasn't the first time Camilla's done something like this.
00:52:22What did she say to you?
00:52:23Camilla leaves her with her friends when she goes on work trips.
00:52:28It's dangerous, and clearly her emotional needs aren't being met.
00:52:32I think you could have a case here.
00:52:33I don't know.
00:52:35I don't want to put her through that.
00:52:37I mean, making her testify against her own mother?
00:52:40I can't do that.
00:52:42I know you want what's best for Malia.
00:52:45And sharing her with Camilla isn't it.
00:52:49Maybe you should just give Camilla what she really wants.
00:52:51And if that's money, fine.
00:52:54You have it.
00:52:56Malia deserves people in her life who care about her.
00:52:59You're right.
00:53:01Malia deserves better.
00:53:04I will talk to her this week.
00:53:19Seems like I owe you again.
00:53:24Greedy?
00:53:25I meant breakfast.
00:53:28You can cook?
00:53:29Yes, I can.
00:53:32For the right company.
00:53:42Ta-da!
00:53:43I should have known someone named Sugar would have such a sweet tooth.
00:53:56Shit.
00:53:57Fuck.
00:53:57I'm sorry.
00:53:58I didn't mean to.
00:54:00It's okay.
00:54:01Really, it's...
00:54:03Actually kind of nice to have someone call me by my real name again.
00:54:06Thank you again for everything.
00:54:10I know this wasn't part of the job description.
00:54:13And I'm sure dealing with my ex wasn't what you had in mind when my dad hired you.
00:54:21Right.
00:54:23Not exactly.
00:54:23Okay.
00:54:29He told you all of that?
00:54:30What are you, a miracle worker?
00:54:32A saint?
00:54:34Hardly.
00:54:36Look.
00:54:38If I tell you something, you promise not to say anything to anyone.
00:54:43Cross my heart hope to die.
00:54:47Your dad is paying me to do this.
00:54:50To help Lincoln.
00:54:53That's what a job is.
00:54:54You work for the company.
00:54:55You know that, right?
00:54:56You don't understand.
00:54:58Your dad offered to pay off my student loans and cover my medical bills for life
00:55:02if I stuck it out as Lakin's assistant.
00:55:05He wanted me to keep him away from Camilla.
00:55:07By any means necessary, he said.
00:55:11Now that Lakin and I are...
00:55:12Fucking like rabbits?
00:55:14Co-workers with benefits?
00:55:16Excuse me?
00:55:18It just...
00:55:19It seems wrong not to tell him.
00:55:22Why?
00:55:22Because you're helping him get his shit together and getting paid for it?
00:55:25Seems like a win-win to me.
00:55:26It won't feel like that if he finds out.
00:55:29He'll think I'm just using him.
00:55:30Well, maybe he doesn't have to find out.
00:55:34Chase, I can't keep lying to him.
00:55:36I think...
00:55:37I think I'm falling for him.
00:55:40So more than co-workers with benefits.
00:55:55Thanks for meeting me.
00:55:57I wanted to talk to you about...
00:55:59Your new girlfriend?
00:56:01What?
00:56:02I know all about your little sleepover.
00:56:04You know, I'd appreciate it if you told me before bringing another woman into our daughter's life.
00:56:10Especially that one.
00:56:12What do you mean by that one?
00:56:14Alex actually stepped up when you abandoned her to go clubbing in L.A.
00:56:18It was a work trip.
00:56:19Oh, really?
00:56:29She's already proven to be way better at taking care of Malia than you've ever been.
00:56:33Which is actually why I'm here.
00:56:34Enough is enough.
00:56:38I want sole custody.
00:56:40So this is it?
00:56:43You want to break up our family for that lying little...
00:56:46You don't want a family.
00:56:47You just want my money.
00:56:49I see right through you, Camilla.
00:56:50You think I want money?
00:56:53How much do you know about your little assistant?
00:56:55What do you mean?
00:56:55I hate to be the one to tell you this, but...
00:57:05That girl is using you, Lakin.
00:57:07I overheard Jason Herr laughing about it in the break room earlier today.
00:57:18What do you mean she's using me?
00:57:19The only reason why she's working for you is because your dad promised to pay her medical bills if she kept you away from me.
00:57:30No, she wouldn't do that. That's not who she is.
00:57:32If you don't believe me, just ask your dad.
00:57:36Is it true?
00:57:47Lakin, what are you doing here?
00:57:49Did you hire Alex in order to keep tabs on me?
00:57:51It was for your own good.
00:57:56Do not give me that father-knows-best routine.
00:57:59This is a complete betrayal of my trust.
00:58:01Your personal issues were affecting not only the business, but our family.
00:58:05That is absurd.
00:58:06This has nothing to do with the company.
00:58:08Your inability to cut Camilla from your life seriously calls into question your abilities as a leader.
00:58:14As it does the way you close yourself off from any connection, romantic or...
00:58:18So what? I can't be CEO if I don't open my heart?
00:58:20That is bullshit.
00:58:22My love life is none of your business.
00:58:25But the well-being of my granddaughter still is.
00:58:29Alex is a smart girl with a good heart.
00:58:32She cares about Malia.
00:58:34And she challenges you.
00:58:37She's fired.
00:58:39Thanks to you.
00:58:50What are you doing here?
00:59:07We need to talk.
00:59:08Oh yeah?
00:59:11You want to explain what you were doing with your ex looking like you're getting back together?
00:59:16Is that why you haven't gotten custody of Malia?
00:59:18Because you still love her?
00:59:20God, it was so fucking stupid.
00:59:22Were you ever going to tell me about your little deal with my dad?
00:59:24God, Alex, I trusted you.
00:59:30I told you things that I've never even told my family.
00:59:34And this whole time, you were just in it for the money.
00:59:38I...
00:59:38That was before anything happened between us.
00:59:42Lakin, I couldn't say no.
00:59:44That kind of money.
00:59:46You know my situation, but I never meant to hurt you.
00:59:49And fucking me, what?
00:59:49That was just a way to ensure job security?
00:59:52That's all I am to you.
00:59:54Just a transaction?
00:59:55Of course not.
00:59:58How dare you?
01:00:00Why should I believe you?
01:00:03You know, you're just like her.
01:00:06I am not like Camilla.
01:00:08Lakin, I care about you.
01:00:10You're fired.
01:00:11And this thing between us?
01:00:13That's over too.
01:00:19Let's go.
01:00:49Rocky Road, huh?
01:01:10I've got the perfect pairing.
01:01:14You're going to let me in or what?
01:01:16You are out of your mind.
01:01:24Showing up here is insane.
01:01:25Like you don't fucking love it.
01:01:27I don't.
01:01:29I've changed.
01:01:30I've heard that before.
01:01:32God, it turns me on when you act like...
01:01:34Alright, this is like a pandemic level of Postmates orders.
01:01:37Have you left your house yet?
01:01:39Well, I'm going to try and get my old job back,
01:01:41so I'll probably be out of the house five days a week.
01:01:44Girl, losing your job and getting dumped on the same day is a lot.
01:01:48You can take some time to mourn.
01:01:52I can't waste any more time on Lakin.
01:01:56I was so stupid thinking he actually cared about me.
01:01:59What's wrong with me?
01:02:14Nothing.
01:02:16Absolutely nothing.
01:02:23I'm sorry.
01:02:24I think I'm going to be alone tonight.
01:02:37Hey.
01:02:39Text me, okay?
01:02:41Just because we don't work together doesn't mean we're not friends.
01:02:45I will.
01:02:46I promise.
01:02:48I promise.
01:03:12I promise.
01:03:13I promise.
01:03:44Hey, um, I'd like to apply for a job.
01:03:49I used to work here.
01:03:51Hey, kid, come on, man, open up.
01:04:02You really need to give me a key.
01:04:06You want a drink?
01:04:07Yeah, where are your glasses?
01:04:09Second cabinet to the left.
01:04:14I heard you broke up with Alex.
01:04:22Can't really break up with someone you weren't dating.
01:04:25We were just fucking, and now we're not.
01:04:29I'm supposed to believe you don't give a shit.
01:04:33I don't.
01:04:35Is that why you're drowning your sorrows in whiskey?
01:04:38Very dramatic, by the way.
01:04:40What do you care?
01:04:42She's all yours now.
01:04:43Her little deal with dad is mute,
01:04:45and now you two can finally be together.
01:04:47Jesus Christ, Lincoln, I'm gay.
01:04:53Yeah.
01:04:56You're always so wrapped up in your own shit,
01:04:57you never thought to ask your brother about his own life.
01:05:04I'm sorry.
01:05:07Really.
01:05:08Really.
01:05:08I can't believe I didn't...
01:05:12Are you good?
01:05:20I'm good.
01:05:21Suddenly, so many things make sense to me now.
01:05:39But you're always flirting with her at...
01:05:41I was trying to light a fire under your ass.
01:05:42She's a good person, Lincoln.
01:05:46She cares about you.
01:05:48A lot.
01:05:51She hated the deal.
01:05:53She hated lying to you.
01:05:55She knew you wouldn't trust her.
01:05:56And why should I?
01:06:01Because not everyone's Camilla.
01:06:08Look, it's not too late to make it right.
01:06:13Call her.
01:06:14clock continues.
01:06:36Bye.
01:06:39Bye.
01:06:39Bye.
01:06:39Bye.
01:06:40Bye.
01:06:40Bye.
01:06:40Bye.
01:06:41Bye.
01:06:42Bye.
01:06:43I don't know.
01:07:13Fuck him.
01:07:30So, that's $250,000 a year?
01:07:34Every year?
01:07:35Until Malia's 18th birthday.
01:07:38So, in nine more years then?
01:07:40Eight.
01:07:40Eight. You don't even know how old your daughter is?
01:08:02Pleasure doing business with you.
01:08:09You don't want to say goodbye?
01:08:10She's upstairs waiting.
01:08:12I can't. I have a flight to Miami in an hour.
01:08:15Give her a kiss for me, will you?
01:08:27Good fucking riddance.
01:08:30I'm proud of you, son.
01:08:31It only took me a decade to cut her out of my life for good.
01:08:35I am going to speak to the board in the morning, all right?
01:08:39If you gentlemen will excuse me,
01:08:42I have a granddaughter to comfort.
01:08:45Congrats, bro.
01:08:51Let's celebrate.
01:08:53Come on, we should be celebrating.
01:09:05Ding dong, the witch agreed to settle.
01:09:09Yeah.
01:09:10And now Malia has to live the rest of her life knowing that her mother didn't care enough about her to fight for custody.
01:09:17On the positive side, Malia's all yours now.
01:09:20You're going to be CEO in a month.
01:09:22What else could you want?
01:09:23Maybe a certain little assistant that helped you get custody.
01:09:29She blocked my number.
01:09:31And no, I'm not going to show up to her doorstep on my knees begging for her to take me back.
01:09:36It would make me look insane.
01:09:38Well, insane or romantic.
01:09:43She doesn't want to speak to me.
01:09:46And I don't blame her.
01:09:47Well, I can't guarantee she'll take you back.
01:09:49But I may have a hot tip on where you can find her.
01:09:55She's working here again?
01:09:58Is that why you brought me here?
01:10:00Go get her.
01:10:12Hi.
01:10:17Ready to order?
01:10:18I'll come back in a few more minutes.
01:10:27Alex.
01:10:29Lincoln?
01:10:31What are you doing here?
01:10:34Jace brought me.
01:10:35To celebrate.
01:10:38I want full custody.
01:10:41Congratulations.
01:10:41Yeah, I, um, I couldn't have done it without you.
01:10:46Uh...
01:10:47Alex, I, um, I want to apologize.
01:10:51I made a huge mistake.
01:10:53Thanks.
01:10:54I actually need to take my break right now.
01:11:01Alex, hey.
01:11:07You okay?
01:11:09Hey.
01:11:11Someone call 911.
01:11:15Help!
01:11:16It's okay.
01:11:21Any update?
01:11:35there's only so much that they'll tell me right now but
01:11:43the doctor said that she's in critical condition
01:11:47they're going to operate tomorrow
01:11:49and then her chances are 50 50
01:11:53Jesus
01:11:54her heart must be overwhelmed by all the stress
01:11:58the stress that I fucking caused her
01:12:02and seeing me at the restaurant that couldn't help either
01:12:06I should have just left her alone
01:12:09it's not your fault Lakin
01:12:10and now Alex could
01:12:13she could
01:12:14hey stop don't talk like that

01:15:46I thought you might need some help

01:16:14Alex
01:16:14you're recovering from surgery
01:16:16let me at least help you inside
01:16:19Malia asks about you all the time you know
01:16:46she misses you
01:16:48everyone misses you
01:16:50my dad
01:16:52Jace
01:16:53and me
01:16:56it was wrong of me to accuse you
01:17:02of only wanting my money
01:17:03I can see that now
01:17:05I've just
01:17:06I've spent my whole life thinking that I had to buy love
01:17:09and I've just been hurt so many times
01:17:12it's hard to comprehend that a woman could see me as anything other than a blank check
01:17:15what you told me about your parents
01:17:22and how they sacrificed everything for you
01:17:24do you really think that what they did for you makes you a burden?
01:17:29they lost everything they had because of me
01:17:32hey but Alex don't you think that if they were given the chance to do it all over again
01:17:35they would do it exactly the same?
01:17:37that's not sacrifice
01:17:39that's love
01:17:42I've been thinking about it a lot
01:17:45about what it means to give
01:17:48without expecting anything in return
01:17:50I can't change the fact that I've been given more than most
01:17:54but what you've taught me
01:17:57what your parents have taught me
01:17:59is that
01:18:01supporting someone
01:18:04it's not about an obligation
01:18:05or to force an outcome
01:18:07it is simply because
01:18:10you love them
01:18:12Miss Livingston
01:18:15you are the most
01:18:18selfless
01:18:19independent
