00:00That I'm focused on work, that I don't need to parade around a stranger.
00:07Delaney? Mom, she's my ex for a reason.
00:14Actually, you know what?
00:21I think I found a day you're really gonna like.
00:24I gotta go.
00:28I'm gonna be invested.
00:30Dark shades, don't you wanna fuck me up?
00:32Ain't tryna fuck me like a nigga in a rica.
00:34Moving through this shit like a TA with a cheer card.
00:36You claim they hate me, but they're fucking out of free cards.
00:39I just wanna dance all night.
00:42Can't nobody do it just like I.
00:44I'm like, that's just what I like.
00:47Come on baby, let's kiss on fire.
00:49What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
00:52What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
00:54What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
00:57What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
01:01What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
01:04What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
01:07Looking for something?
01:10A date to my sister's wedding.
01:14I'll double your best payday, and I'll even let you pick our fake backstory.
01:23Lucky for you, I do escort work on the side.
01:29Give my agency a call.
01:31I'm yours, so long as you pay.
01:40What you want to do, tell me what you like.
01:42Just stay away, baby, I'ma get you back here.
01:45What you want to do, tell me what you like.
01:47What you want to do, tell me what you like.
01:55Piper?
01:57That's me.
01:58You must be Tate.
01:59Thanks for meeting me at the service entrance.
02:02The agency filled you in, yes?
02:04You need to be at the top of your game tonight.
02:07My mother will be watching me like a hawk.
02:09Hopefully, with you there, she won't be trying to set me up with anyone.
02:12Of course, Mr. Young.
02:13You can trust me, I'm a professional.
02:16Well, I mean, you're an escort.
02:18It doesn't exactly require an MBA.
02:21And hiring an escort doesn't exactly require more than a dick and a credit card.
02:26Really just a credit card.
02:28That's funny.
02:29I thought I paid for a date, not an attitude.
02:32Two for the price of one.
02:34Lucky you.
02:39So, what's the story of how we met?
02:47You said you're a professional, right?
02:49Make something up.
02:51If we want to pull this off, we're going to have to have a story.
02:54You said yourself that your mother's going to be watching.
02:57Unless you want me to tell her the truth.
02:59Look, I realize that some of your other clients may find those kinds of jokes charming.
03:06But I need you to take this seriously, okay?
03:09My reputation's at stake here.
03:12You know, on my way over here, I was wondering,
03:14why does Tate Young, the most eligible bachelor in the city, need an escort?
03:18And I'm starting to understand why.
03:22Tate, you came!
03:24It's your rehearsal dinner.
03:26What did you expect?
03:26Well, you always seem to find some excuse.
03:31And you are?
03:36It's nice to meet you, Ariana.
03:37I'm Piper.
03:39So?
03:40How did you two meet?
03:43Don't worry, babe.
03:44I'll tell her.
03:44I hosted a local artist charity auction last month,
03:49and the Young Family Foundation bid on a painting for their lobby.
03:52I supervised the installation, and Tate was there.
03:56The rest is history.
03:58Oh.
03:59Tate never usually spends time at the foundation.
04:02It was our father's passion project,
04:03but Tate tends to get his priorities mixed up.
04:06Oh.
04:08Mom's looking for you?
04:09I told her you were over here, so good luck.
04:10I'm going to go make out with Dave.
04:19You know, I gotta say,
04:21it's a little scary how good of a liar you are.
04:24Oh, Tate,
04:25we've got to work on your trust issues.
04:27That whole story was true.
04:30Aside from meeting you, of course.
04:32Well, you're about to see where I got those trust issues from.
04:35I don't believe you're on our guest list.
04:41Mom, come on.
04:42Is that anyone who treat my date?
04:45It's lovely to meet you, Mrs. Young.
04:47I was just telling your daughter that you bid on a painting at a local art auction I held last month.
04:53You hosted that?
04:54That painting spoke to me immediately.
04:57And I was especially intrigued with how the artist signed it.
05:01No name, just for Elizabeth.
05:04A dedication to the artist's mother.
05:06Must be nice for a mother to feel appreciated.
05:11I tried to find the artist, but if that artist appreciates their anonymity...
05:16Oh.
05:17And how about you, dear?
05:19Do you appreciate your anonymity as well?
05:23I'm an open book.
05:24Ask me anything.
05:26Oh.
05:27Where did you grow up?
05:28New York.
05:30Did you attend college?
05:31Princeton.
05:32College and graduate school for my MFA.
05:35Whoa.
05:36Poor dear.
05:37You must be drowning in student debt.
05:40Actually, my family didn't have to take out any loans, thank goodness.
05:43Oh.
05:44So you're comfortable.
05:45My mother was at the top of her field, so yes, we were comfortable.
05:49I see.
05:51We'll all have to have lunch together.
05:52Um, my mother is, unfortunately, no longer with us.
05:59All right.
05:59Okay.
06:00Enough with the third degree.
06:02I think Piper deserves a breather.
06:04I'll give her a tour of the house.
06:07Nice meeting you.
06:09You too.
06:09Okay, so we've established that you're an enormous dork, which is probably why you have a hard time with the ladies.
06:25I prefer to focus on my work.
06:28Hmm.
06:29You know they have support groups for that kind of thing.
06:32Stop.
06:33You sound like my mother.
06:34She's been going to extremes to try to get me to settle down.
06:38Oh.
06:38What kind of extremes?
06:40Trying to get me back together with my ex.
06:43Speaking of...
06:44Tate, baby.
06:45I missed you.
06:47Delaney?
06:48This is...
06:49Piper.
06:50His girlfriend.
06:52Delaney Hughes.
06:54His first love.
06:55Is that right?
06:57See, you're still trying to replace me, huh?
06:59What app did you find this one on?
07:01Piper is in the arts.
07:03That's where we met.
07:05And Delaney here is a lawyer at the firm.
07:07T, that's not all I am, and you know it.
07:09We dated all throughout high school and college.
07:12And then we broke up.
07:13Hmm?
07:14Delaney, why are you here?
07:15Oh, don't be like that.
07:16You know Josie and I have always been close.
07:19Why, I'm practically family.
07:21And who knows?
07:22Maybe someday I will be.
07:23Delaney, what are you doing here?
07:25Thank God I came, right?
07:27I mean, it doesn't look like there was much of a turnout.
07:30We kept the guest list intimate.
07:31We didn't want anything to...
07:33Expensive?
07:34I mean, this family is worth millions.
07:36I am sad that they couldn't throw you a decent wedding.
07:38If your father were alive to see his daughter...
07:40Delaney!
07:41Yes?
07:42You're drunk.
07:44I'll call you a car.
07:45Don't be silly.
07:46Go, Delaney.
07:49I didn't invite you here.
07:50Your mother did.
07:51Well, it's not her wedding, is it?
07:53Car's five minutes away.
07:55Feel free to wait outside.
07:56You should learn to stay out of my business.
07:59Otherwise, I might start sniffing around yours.
08:01I hope this isn't too forward, but can we be best friends already?
08:13Not too forward at all.
08:15Sorry about Delaney.
08:16It's okay.
08:17Or it will be, as long as you keep this girl around.
08:20I meant what I said earlier.
08:27If we're going to get through tonight, we have to get to know one another.
08:30Your family's not going to stop crying.
08:32Okay, fine.
08:35I graduated from Columbia, summa cum laude, interned at Goldman Sachs, became the youngest CEO in the firm's history, made the Forbes 30 under 30 list, and now I'm expected to carry on a tradition of excellence.
08:51Oh, success is boring to you?
08:59I can find all that stuff on Google.
09:02I want to know who you really are.
09:04Okay, um, I'm good at billiards.
09:08Oh, God.
09:09Just call it pool, like a normal person.
09:12Pools are for swimming.
09:13Wow.
09:14Having a life of privilege really did a number on you, huh?
09:18Privilege is subjective.
09:19Well, money's not, and that makes all of the other problems a whole lot easier.
09:26Oh.
09:28What's this?
09:29Absolutely not.
09:31It does not say no escorts.
09:37Oh.
09:44A.B. honor roll.
09:47So you're a huge nerd.
09:48Briefly.
09:49I loved space, anyway.
09:53What the hell happened?
09:55What do you mean?
09:56Based on my research, I couldn't find a single photo where you actually looked happy.
10:01And that Forbes 30 under 30 profile.
10:04It was thoughtful.
10:06Introspective.
10:08Mildly suicidal.
10:09Definitely depressing.
10:10Fine.
10:11Fine.
10:11There was this space camp that I begged my parents to attend.
10:20Finally, they agreed the summer before I went to high school.
10:22But, uh, while I was gone, my, uh, my father passed away.
10:30I'm so sorry for your loss.
10:34After that, I guess I stopped looking up at the stars.
10:37That's where he was, you know?
10:40I said it down here with us.
10:43Are you okay?
10:44I should, uh, get back to the party before my mother comes looking.
11:05So you're coming to the wedding tomorrow, right?
11:14I don't work multi-day jobs.
11:17Plus, I don't think I should.
11:18Your family is way too involved.
11:21It's too complicated.
11:22I thought you said you were a professional.
11:26You'll have to make up an excuse.
11:29Or give them my apologies.
11:31I'm sorry, Tate.
11:33Really.
11:36I'll double your rate.
11:39And I'll do whatever you say.
11:42Open up as much as necessary.
11:44You don't want to keep lying to your family, Tate.
11:47I mean, what's your big plan here?
11:49You know, for once, I'm not trying to strategize ten steps ahead.
11:52I know what I want right now.
11:56I'll talk to the agency.
12:00See if they can make arrangements.
12:06Thank you, Piper.
12:08Don't thank me yet.
12:11Look, I gotta go.
12:16I don't know.
12:22Whenever you're awake, I miss you.
12:50Yeah, the next two nights.
13:00Is Renee available?
13:03She's just so good with all the medications.
13:07Oh, good.
13:08Please tell her that I'll have my room ready for her.
13:11Bye-bye.
13:24I am waiting.
13:25So tell me what you need.
13:29Cause I can't take it the way this is changing me
13:41I am waiting, so tell me what you need
13:50Cause I can't take it the way this is changing me
14:00I am waiting, so tell me what you need
14:09Cause I can't take it the way this is changing me
14:20Shit
14:39Fuck
14:50Text date
14:54I can't make it to the wedding today, I'm sorry
14:58I'll return your money now
14:59Send
15:01Not an option
15:08Contract is signed with the agency
15:11See you at 11am
15:13Fuck
15:14Hello
15:23There you are
15:25Sorry, I couldn't hear the gate
15:27It was open, but I'm here
15:30And having a colossally bad hair day
15:34Okay, well you can't wear a hat to the wedding
15:37It can't be that bad
15:40Let me see it
15:41It's that bad
15:42No one can see
15:44Show me
15:45I'm sorry
15:54Wow
15:56What are you doing
16:02Just trust me, okay
16:03I grew up with a sister
16:04So how did this happen anyway?
16:09I fell asleep painting
16:11Which I haven't done since I was a kid
16:14I'm surprised you had the energy to paint after everything yesterday
16:18I was inspired
16:20I know what you mean
16:23You know we have staff for that sort of thing
16:32Yes, and I've seen children set up a tea party neater than this
16:35You're in a good mood
16:38It's a good day
16:40It's Piper, isn't it?
16:43I was skeptical
16:44But I see how happy she makes you
16:47Mom, please don't make a big deal out of this, okay?
16:51Your father would have liked her
16:53I like her too
16:57Hey, what are you doing with those flowers?
17:17Ready?
17:29Dave, when we first met we agreed we felt like teenagers again
17:33Energized
17:35Invincible
17:37But as we fell in love I felt more like a little kid again
17:41Full of wonder
17:43And hope
17:45I had absolute faith in you because I felt absolutely cherished
17:50Just like I did when I was small
17:52My father taught me that unconditional love was possible
17:57And I know you're the only man he'd trust his little girl to
18:03Because you love all versions of me
18:07Unconditionally
18:10And I vow to love you just the same
18:14Young or old
18:17Richer, poorer
18:19In sickness and in health
18:23Forever
18:25Full shit
18:29You were absolutely crying
18:31I was not
18:32Okay, I may have shed a tear
18:34But she's my baby sister and she was getting married
18:36I think I'm entitled to
18:37Oh my god
18:38Okay, if you make this a big deal, Piper
18:40I swear
18:40No, no, no, not that
18:41Is that Sebastian Rockwell?
18:45The art critic?
18:46I'm kind of obsessed with him
18:47Hey, Bash!
18:48Tate, no
18:49Tate
18:52Beautiful ceremony
18:54Thank you so much, my friend
18:55Sebastian, I want you to meet someone
18:57This is Piper Manning
18:58It's so nice to meet you, Mr. Rothwell
19:01I've been reading your writing for years
19:03That piece you wrote on the Edward Hopper retrospective at the Whitney
19:08Made me cry
19:10You're too kind
19:11Are you an artist yourself?
19:14I'm a painter
19:15Send me some photos of your work
19:17I'd love to know more about the woman who stole Tate Young's heart
19:20Excuse me, I have to take this
19:25Connect us
19:26So
19:46Did you save a dance for me?
19:49I don't dance
19:50What?
19:52No
19:52Ariana said everyone had to dance
19:55And that includes you and me
19:56You don't want to piss off the bride, do you?
19:59How'd you get so good at this?
20:16I've attended way too many of these formal events
20:18So I've not picked up a thing or two
20:19Oh
20:21Is that your foot?
20:25How are you so bad at this?
20:27Dancing is not one of my skills
20:29So how did you get into escorted?
20:35I needed help with my mom's medical bills
20:38And the pay was great
20:40And I didn't mind escaping my reality from time to time
20:45Turns out
20:48When you're not born into a multi-million dollar family
20:51Life's kind of hard
20:52So having a concierge doctor isn't the norm?
20:55I was kind of hoping that this would be my last gig
21:00I want to spend more time at home
21:03Get a remote job or something
21:06Job is a job
21:07There's nothing wrong with doing what it takes to survive
21:10But for what it's worth
21:13I hope I'm your last assignment too
21:16How about a photo of the happy couple?
21:24Get cozy
21:24Come on Tate, give her a kiss
21:28You have a plan
21:32Okay
21:33Have a good evening, little birds
21:53Stay with me tonight
22:03I thought that kind of had squirt
22:08We don't have to
22:10I just want to spend more time with you
22:14Please
22:16Want to zip me?
22:34Uh, sure
22:35Do you have a shirt for me to wear?
22:51Right
22:51Uh, of course
22:52It was a gift from my dad
23:00Oh
23:01Are you sure you want me to wear it?
23:05Don't be silly
23:05Looks good on you
23:12Okay, who's being silly now?
23:17Just trying to be respectful
23:18I feel respected
23:20Now, can we sleep in the bed?
23:24Like adults?
23:25Hardwood floor, huh?
23:30Honestly
23:31You're stiff enough as it is
23:34Tea?
23:48Yeah?
23:50I was just
23:51Seeing if you were awake
23:53You can't sleep
23:58Not really
24:07You?
24:13No
24:14Everything is
24:17Racing
24:19Is this okay?
24:33Everything is racing
24:33For me, too
24:34Is this okay?
24:49What a sound ofá»als
24:50I love you
24:51I love you
24:52I love you
24:52I love you
24:54It's okay
24:54I love you
24:57I love you
25:16I love you
25:16Wow, your dad was a babe.
25:47What happened to you?
25:50Okay, okay.
25:51I'm kidding.
25:51You're a babe, too.
25:53All right, come on.
25:53Let me see a picture of your mom.
26:03Oh, my God.
26:05She was stunning.
26:08You really miss her, don't you?
26:10I know it sounds weird, but I really miss her playing the piano.
26:15I used to come home from school, and I could hear it all the way from our building hallway.
26:22Anytime I heard that music, I knew that she was happy.
26:26I had to sell it, the piano, when she got sick.
26:32Look, I haven't forgiven myself since that.
26:40I see some of your paintings sometime.
26:44You really don't spend enough time at your family's foundation.
26:48You've been talking to my mother, haven't you?
26:49The painting she bought for Elizabeth, it's mine.
26:55It was for my mom.
27:00You're incredible.
27:01Okay.
27:14So, is it like this with all your other clients?
27:19Not usually.
27:21This feels personal.
27:24Yeah, for me, too.
27:28Then me working for you creates a problematic power dynamic.
27:35Now, there's a word every man wants to hear in the bedroom.
27:38Not just for me, for both of us.
27:42You know?
27:43How do I know that you don't just want sex,
27:45and how do you know that I don't just want a paycheck?
27:49Looks like I'm not the only one with trust issues.
27:54Am I wrong?
27:56Well, I mean, you said after this weekend,
27:58you might not be an escort anymore.
28:04So then what?
28:07So then I will take you out on a date.
28:12I don't know if I fit in here.
28:15You know, with your family,
28:17and your world.
28:19Hey.
28:22Then I will make space for you.
28:30Get away from my son.
28:34What are you talking about, Mom?
28:36I just received a disturbing email from Delaney
28:38with attachments from an escort service.
28:41Did you know about this?
28:43About this gold digger?
28:45Calm down.
28:46It's not like that.
28:46I trusted you.
28:47And you lied to my face about using my son.
28:51I'm sorry I had to lie to you,
28:52but I was never using him.
28:54You're trespassing.
28:56Get off my property before I call the police.
28:58All right.
28:59Listen.
28:59There is no need to be so dramatic.
29:01All right?
29:01I wanted a professional,
29:03so I hired one.
29:04Okay?
29:05End of story.
29:06Professional?
29:07You knew?
29:08Tate.
29:09I see the way you look at her.
29:12This woman has you eating out of the palm of her hand.
29:15And she lied to you, Tate.
29:16What do you mean she lied to me?
29:19Josie, please.
29:20Her mother's alive, not dead, as she led us to believe.
29:24She lied about something like this?
29:26How can we believe anything she has to say?
29:30Is that true?
29:34It is, but...
29:35So much for really getting to know each other, huh?
29:37Can we please just talk about this privately?
29:40Why?
29:40So you can spin more lies,
29:42get off my property,
29:44or I'll call the police.
29:46Tate.
29:48Just leave.
29:51Before it gets any worse.
29:57So much for making space for me.
29:59Think about our family's future.
30:07What would your father think of this?
30:09A prostitute for a daughter-in-law?
30:12Enough.
30:14Now we have to spin damage control.
30:17Delaney promised not to leak it to the press
30:19if you meet with her for a chat.
30:27Piper.
30:27Hey, Piper.
30:28What the hell do you want?
30:30How could you lie to me?
30:31I don't owe you an explanation.
30:33How could you let your mother say those things to me?
30:35Yeah, well, maybe she was right.
30:36You never cared about me.
30:38You only cared about using me for my money and my connections.
30:41But what else should I have expected from an escort?
30:44You sell your body for money.
30:48Piper, I didn't mean that.
30:51I'm sorry I went too far.
30:52No.
30:54You know what?
30:54You're right.
30:56I am just an escort.
30:57And you're just another client.
31:01This was just business.
31:03And we are done here.
31:05Piper, wait.
31:06Hey, Renee.
31:06Is everything OK with my mom?
31:07I don't know.
31:08But I'm just a kid.
31:09I don't know.
31:10I don't know.
31:10I don't know.
31:11I don't know.
31:12I don't know.
31:12I don't know.
31:13I don't know.
31:13I don't know.
31:14I don't know if that's not what it is.
31:14You're right.
31:15I don't know.
31:16Hey Renee, is everything okay with my mom?
31:36Oh, good.
31:39Sure, I'll stop by the pharmacy on the way home.
31:42No problem.
31:44Bye.
31:46Congratulations, Michelangela.
31:48Oh my gosh, you're so sweet. You did not have to do that.
31:51Of course I did. We have to celebrate you coming all this way all on your own.
31:55Well, not all on my own.
31:58How is our little one doing today?
32:00Crushing my bladder, as a matter of fact.
32:06This is incredible, Piper.
32:09You said you were going into business on your own. I had no idea.
32:13It was partially thanks to your wedding.
32:18Am I your muse?
32:20I did feel inspired that weekend.
32:22It was the first time I was able to paint in over a year.
32:28And Tate introduced me to Sebastian Rothwell.
32:31He loved one of my new pieces, wrote an article about it.
32:35And then I had requests and commissions just flooding in.
32:39So, thanks for getting married.
32:41Well, thank you for letting me be in your life.
32:45Between that and you agreeing to keep this a secret, you have definitely earned your best friend's lap.
32:53Well, it's not hard to keep a secret when you barely speak to your family.
32:57It's okay. It's good, actually.
33:01After the way they treated you, I finally drew some boundaries.
33:04No more meddling from mom.
33:06No more watching Tate destroy the legacy my father created.
33:10How is he?
33:12From what I can tell, miserable.
33:17And he's making everybody around him miserable, too.
33:24He's shutting down Dad's foundation.
33:34This gorgeous new property just opened up in the 7th.
33:37Overpriced, no doubt.
33:39Without the foundation bleeding our firm dry, we can afford it.
33:43Our first European office.
33:46Our London office is in Europe.
33:49We can spend the summers vacationing on the Seine.
33:52Ugh, the Seine is filthy.
33:55I'll take a tour when I visit next week.
34:09What the hell is this?
34:11That's the ring you're going to use to propose to me.
34:14We'll announce the good news when I'm back.
34:17Don't worry. I like a surprise.
34:19Hello?
34:20Is there anyone here to help me?
34:22I'd love to purchase a piece.
34:23Be out in a sec.
34:24Take your time, dear.
34:25I think you're showing an artist that I've been trying to find for the past year.
34:29You have no idea how hard it is to track him down.
34:30He never signs his paintings.
34:31I think you're showing an artist that I've been trying to find for the past year.
34:35You have no idea how hard it is to track him down.
34:36He never signs his paintings.
34:37I didn't realize he was being shown in a gallery.
34:38I think I saw one of his paintings.
34:39I think I saw one of his paintings on the Seine.
34:40It resembled the one I purchased last year.
34:41It resembled the one I purchased last year.
34:44I think I saw one of his paintings in your catalog.
34:47It resembled the one I purchased last year.
34:48What do you think you're doing here?
34:49Excuse me?
34:50I need to talk to the artist immediately.
34:51Does he know?
34:52I think you're showing an artist that I've been trying to find for the past year.
34:53You have no idea how hard it is to track him down.
34:56He never signs his paintings.
34:59I didn't realize he was being shown in a gallery.
35:02I think I saw one of his paintings in your catalog.
35:06It resembled the one I purchased last year.
35:09What do you think you're doing here?
35:12Excuse me?
35:13I need to talk to the artist immediately.
35:16Does he know the gallery hired a prostitute?
35:19I'm the artist that you've been looking for.
35:22And this is my gallery.
35:24Now get off of my property before I call the police.
35:28Wait.
35:29Wait.
35:30Judging from your appearance, I think I should stay.
35:34I don't have to take your insults anymore.
35:37If I'm not mistaken, and I've had two pregnancies myself,
35:41I think you're as far along as Ariana's wedding.
35:44Did you do this to trap him?
35:47You're coming after child support, aren't you?
35:50Tate doesn't know.
35:52And I don't need his support.
35:54Why didn't you tell him?
35:56Because I want nothing to do with the Youngs.
35:59As you can see, I'm thriving on my own.
36:02Even as an escort, I was fine.
36:05And I refused to bring my daughter into a family that views me, or her, as a shameful mistake.
36:12You're having a little girl?
36:14Yes.
36:15I'm having a girl.
36:17And just because I don't have the same resources as you,
36:20doesn't mean I can't give her the best damn life possible.
36:23She's gonna be happy, and healthy, and she will never have the misfortune of meeting you.
36:29Now please leave.
36:30Thanks for coming by.
36:31I needed access to all of Dad's files on the foundation.
36:44That's the only reason I'm here.
36:45I don't want to argue with you.
36:46Is that all you think I do?
36:48Either that, or you guilt trip me about shutting down Dad's foundation.
36:52I don't want to argue with you either.
36:55I just want to ask, have you ever heard from Piper again?
37:01What?
37:02No.
37:03Why?
37:04I heard she opened her own gallery.
37:07Good for her.
37:09I thought maybe we could stop by sometime.
37:14Or just you?
37:16Reconnect?
37:17You know, I just don't understand you.
37:19First you throw her out of the house, and now you're trying to set us up?
37:23That's not what I'm trying to do.
37:25I thought that you would be happy that I'm back with Delaney.
37:27You know, someone from our world?
37:29I just can't win with you.
37:31Tate, stop.
37:33There's something that I have to tell you about Piper.
37:44This song is one of your favorites, Mama.
38:05What are you doing here?
38:28My mother told me.
38:31How did you find me?
38:33We have a PI on retainer.
38:35Of course you do.
38:37Do you people respect anything?
38:39You want to talk about respect?
38:41How could you not tell me we're about to have a kid?
38:43We're not about to do anything.
38:45Keep your voice down.
38:49Is that your mom?
38:51Is she okay?
38:53No.
38:54She's not okay.
38:55Why did you lie about her?
38:57I wasn't lying when I said that she's no longer with us.
39:01She's gone.
39:03Alzheimer's.
39:05Her care nearly drove me to bankruptcy.
39:08But that's in the past now.
39:12I'm fully capable of supporting my family all on my own.
39:18You should have told me that.
39:22It's too painful to talk about.
39:24And you should have told me about this, too.
39:27You didn't defend me, Tate.
39:29And you never reached out.
39:31You wanted nothing to do with me after that day.
39:34Piper.
39:35Look, I get it.
39:36I'm a black mark on your precious reputation.
39:40Delaney's better for you.
39:43How do you know about that?
39:45The press fall was your every move.
39:48And I'm sure they'd have a field day about this.
39:58Please, just leave us alone.
40:02I want my daughter to know real love.
40:04And I don't think you're capable of it.
40:17You haven't taken your telescope out since you were a kid.
40:21Yeah, well, I try not to think about Dad too much these days.
40:25Yeah.
40:27Did you see Piper?
40:28What did she say?
40:30How much does she want?
40:32She didn't want anything.
40:34We'll need to draft an NDA.
40:36Good God, a pregnant escort.
40:38The media circus around that.
40:40Is that all you can think about?
40:42I'm thinking about our family.
40:44Yeah, so am I.
40:45I'm about to have a daughter out there in the world who I'll never meet thanks to you.
40:50Hey, don't blame this on me.
40:52You were the one that brought her in this house in the first place.
40:55You're right.
40:58And I'm ashamed of us.
41:00For how we treated her.
41:03You want to know why she was escorting?
41:05It's because her mother is sick.
41:07Not dead.
41:08I mean really sick.
41:10But I guess Delaney's email didn't include that, huh?
41:13You know what?
41:14It doesn't even matter who's to blame.
41:17I understand why she didn't tell me.
41:21I make a terrible father.
41:26I'm nothing like Dad.
41:34Hey Drew, have you seen my key to the supply closet anywhere?
41:38It's exquisite.
41:40It changed my life.
41:46It's what made all this possible.
41:50When did you paint it?
41:52The night I met him.
41:54Before everything else.
41:56I was thinking about Vermeer's portraits.
42:01His use of light and contrast to create a whole world and essence of a person.
42:07What appears at first glance, simple.
42:11Becomes increasingly intimate.
42:14Intimate.
42:16And exposes who the person is emotionally.
42:22I owe you an apology, Piper.
42:24And an explanation.
42:26The way I accused you of only going after Tate for his money.
42:32I only feared that because that's how I married my husband.
42:37I grew up with so little.
42:39Practically nothing really.
42:41I vowed my children would not have the same fate.
42:45So you accused me of what you did.
42:47You went digging for gold?
42:49Only at first.
42:51But yes.
42:53I sought out Harrison for the security.
42:55So what happened after you got married?
42:58Did you tell him the truth or did you just live out a lie?
43:00After a few months, I was head over heels.
43:04Harrison was the love of my life.
43:06The best husband and father I could have ever asked for.
43:09Well, I'm sorry Tate didn't turn out more like Harrison then.
43:12But I appreciate your honesty.
43:16Piper.
43:18I know that if given the chance, Tate would follow in his father's footsteps.
43:25You don't have to forgive me.
43:27But please, please let Tate be a part of his child's life.
43:35I'll think about it.
43:50Josie brought me.
43:52She must have really groveled.
43:54She did change my mind about something.
43:58I never grew up knowing my father.
44:02And I'd be lying if I said that I didn't feel that absence.
44:08So I'm willing to let you be in her life.
44:12On my terms.
44:17See you in a month.
44:19Wait. What?
44:20What?
44:22Well, the baby's not here yet.
44:24Yeah, but I want to be a good father now.
44:30What do you mean?
44:35Being a good father means taking care of the mother.
44:38Even if the child's not here yet.
44:39You can come over tonight.
44:41I need help building a crib.
44:43I'll be there.
44:44You're on the wrong page.
44:45I am not.
44:47If you would just let me help.
44:48No, Piper.
44:49Absolutely not.
44:50And don't make me send you to bed early.
44:51So how's your mom doing?
44:52I'm not quite sure.
44:53I'm sure you're not gonna be in bed.
44:54I didn't want to be in bed.
44:55I don't wanna like to wait for you.
44:57I am not.
44:58I don't wanna be in bed alone.
44:59You need a proper place.
45:00Yeah.
45:01You would never forget.
45:03I know.
45:04You're on the wrong page.
45:06I am not.
45:07I am not.
45:08You would just let me help.
45:09It's okay.
45:10You're on the wrong page.
45:11I am not.
45:12If you would just let me help.
45:13No, Piper, absolutely not.
45:14And don't make me send you to bed early.
45:15so how's your mom doing is there any chance for improvement not really you know she has good days
