00:00:00No surprises.

00:00:02Ho, ho, ho! I have a gift for you.

00:00:05Jessica, you have inherited this mansion,

00:00:08along with your father's business empire

00:00:10and assets worth over a billion dollars.

00:00:12I just need a signature from you.

00:00:14Oh, and a hundred and five million dollars in cash.

00:00:22Rich!

00:00:23Let me hold on to you for your baby.

00:00:26You know, my whole life I grew up in foster care,

00:00:31moving from place to place,

00:00:33and now I finally have a place that I can call home.

00:00:37It was real great to win the jackpot.

00:00:39Now my only wish is to reunite with my mother.

00:00:43You bastard child!

00:00:45You will never reunite with your mother.

00:00:48We made sure that that whore is gone forever.

00:00:51My mother is gone because of you?

00:00:53Well, we had a little help from James Thornton,

00:00:56the most powerful man in the Thornton family.

00:01:00Time for you to go back to your poor little country, sis.

00:01:03Yes, ma'am?

00:01:04USCIS.

00:01:05Your visa were expired years ago.

00:01:07You're being deported.

00:01:08What? No, there must be some mistake.

00:01:10Adrian, didn't you help me file my immigration paperwork?

00:01:14Whoops.

00:01:15Well, I guess I screwed up.

00:01:17What?

00:01:18Hey, baby.

00:01:20Hey, baby.

00:01:21Hey.

00:01:22Adrian, are you cheating on me? With her?

00:01:25Choose the right side, babe.

00:01:27You'll never win against them.

00:01:29That's true.

00:01:30Um, according to the terms of the will,

00:01:32non-citizens are not eligible to inherit the estate.

00:01:36Everything will pass to your next of kin,

00:01:38Lisa and Kristen Miller.

00:01:41You thought you could get rich overnight?

00:01:44Keep dreaming.

00:01:46Seriously?

00:01:47Bon voyage, sis.

00:01:56The boss is surgeon.

00:01:57They're about to deport a woman named Jessica Miller.

00:02:01Jessica Miller?

00:02:04It's her.

00:02:13Oh, thank God you're alive.

00:02:14She's so beautiful and kind.

00:02:16The girl I've always dreamed of.

00:02:18She saved my life once.

00:02:20I owe her.

00:02:25Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:02:27Jessica?

00:02:28Do I know this?

00:02:29She doesn't remember me.

00:02:31I'm Daniel.

00:02:32You're a lawyer.

00:02:33Just pretend we know each other.

00:02:34I can get you out of here.

00:02:35We've spoken to the judge,

00:02:36and Miss Miller should be released immediately.

00:02:37Wait, wait, you can't deport her.

00:02:38She is about to marry a U.S. citizen.

00:02:39Who's the lucky guy?

00:02:40I am.

00:02:41I marry her.

00:02:42A fake marriage won't save her.

00:02:43Mm-hmm.

00:02:44A fake marriage won't save her.

00:02:45Our marriage is real.

00:02:46Mm-hmm.

00:02:47Yeah, 100% real.

00:02:48Prove it then.

00:02:49I'm not.

00:02:50I'm not.

00:02:51I'm not.

00:02:52I'm not.

00:02:53I'm not.

00:02:54I'm not.

00:02:55I'm not.

00:02:56I'm not.

00:02:57I'm not.

00:02:58I'm not.

00:02:59I'm not.

00:03:00I'm not.

00:03:02I'm not.

00:03:03I'm not.

00:03:04I'm not.

00:03:05Yeah.

00:03:06100% real.

00:03:07Prove it then.

00:03:15That's it?

00:03:16You call that a kiss?

00:03:29Need more proof, officer?

00:03:30Look, this guy is a lawyer to some of the most important families in town.

00:03:35And if you don't let her go, they'll make sure you lose your damn job.

00:03:39Fine.

00:03:40You can have her.

00:03:41Thank you, officer.

00:03:46All right.

00:03:47I think we're good.

00:03:50It's not over.

00:03:53We'll be checking your marital status and conducting interviews.

00:03:56And there are a few very specific requirements you should know.

00:04:00Make sure you two are staying in the same house and sleeping in the same bed.

00:04:05Or it's game over.

00:04:09Well...

00:04:12Thank you...

00:04:14For the rescue.

00:04:16Oh, it's...

00:04:17No problem.

00:04:18But, um...

00:04:20Daniel...

00:04:22Would you...

00:04:24Would you marry me?

00:04:25Oh, Jessica.

00:04:26I've waited for this moment for five years.

00:04:29I mean, it would only be a...

00:04:31Contract...

00:04:32Marriage.

00:04:33But...

00:04:34Once I get my green card...

00:04:35I'll inherit my father's business empire.

00:04:38And...

00:04:39I'll share half of it with you.

00:04:41Even your misunderstanding looks so cute.

00:04:43I only want you, Jessica.

00:04:45But...

00:04:46Before I get my green card...

00:04:48You're gonna have to help me deal with my stepsister and her mom.

00:04:52They're trying to get rid of me.

00:04:54And they've already stolen my fortune.

00:04:57And they made my mother disappear.

00:05:01Deal.

00:05:02What?

00:05:04That's it?

00:05:07This lily stands for loyalties and new beginnings.

00:05:11Something that I want with you.

00:05:13Now I know it's rushed.

00:05:16But I promise you...

00:05:18I will buy you a proper ring soon.

00:05:20From now on, let's make every Christmas our own.

00:05:33Fill it...

00:05:34With memories.

00:05:47You...

00:05:48You can't do this!

00:05:49It's okay.

00:05:50Just wait here.

00:05:51I'll handle it.

00:05:57What?

00:05:59Why are you helping that girl?

00:06:01Kristen Miller is our ally.

00:06:02And she wants her the hell out of this picture.

00:06:05It's too late, Dad.

00:06:06We already got married.

00:06:08Are you insane?

00:06:10Did you forget you're supposed to marry Ashley?

00:06:14Daniel Thornton.

00:06:16My mother is gone because of you?

00:06:19Well, we had a little help from James Thornton.

00:06:22The most powerful man in the Thornton family.

00:06:26Wait.

00:06:27I recognize her face.

00:06:28I recognize her face from the newspaper.

00:06:30That was James Thornton.

00:06:32From the Thornton family.

00:06:33The family responsible for my mother's disappearance.

00:06:36Stop telling me what I can and cannot do.

00:06:37She saved my life.

00:06:38I owe it to her.

00:06:39Roll the hell up, Daniel.

00:06:40You need to remember your position as the heir to our family.

00:06:41And you need to divorce that girl.

00:06:42Now.

00:06:43I'm doing this to clean your mess up.

00:06:44Just leave us alone.

00:06:45Sorry about that.

00:06:46Is your name Daniel Thornton?

00:06:47Yeah.

00:06:48The Thornton family are responsible for the disappearance of my mother.

00:06:53I have been searching for her my entire life.

00:07:08Jess.

00:07:09No.

00:07:10That's not merakese.

00:07:11I can't explain.

00:07:12I'm not marrying Thornton.

00:07:13Wait, wait, wait, Jess, Jess.

00:07:14I'm not who you think I am.

00:07:15E.

00:07:16I have nothing to do with that family.

00:07:17Oh really?

00:07:18Because your name is right here on the marriage certificate?

00:07:19I share the last name as Thornton, and I am how much you have there, inside this

00:07:20family wants to use in inflammation.

00:07:21It is.

00:07:22No.

00:07:23Another large.'

00:07:24Peter Albers event of something, but again.

00:07:26No.

00:07:30Yeah.

00:07:32Oh.

00:07:35I share the last name of Thornton, and I am not one of them.

00:07:39Thornton is a common man, just an ordinary guy.

00:07:42Really? Well, I don't believe you.

00:07:43I saw you talking to James Thornton.

00:07:46Is he your father?

00:07:50Is he your father?

00:07:51No, he's not my father.

00:07:53He was threatening to drive you out of the country, and I was not going to have anything to do with it.

00:07:57Jess, I'm on your side.

00:07:59You're not one of them, I'm very sorry.

00:08:05It's okay. Don't worry about it.

00:08:11Well, you have a nice apartment.

00:08:14Welcome.

00:08:17Is that your Labrador?

00:08:18That looks exactly like mine.

00:08:20I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.

00:08:22No way. I got mine as a Christmas present when I was nine.

00:08:26That's crazy.

00:08:31Jess, we're going to have to sleep in the same room together just in case immigration ambush us.

00:08:35Yeah, but are you sure you're okay sleeping on the carpet?

00:08:39I mean, you've done so much for me already, and I just...

00:08:42Jess, please. I insist.

00:08:44We made a deal, remember.

00:08:46I also want to thank you for giving me the chance to get rich.

00:08:52It's okay, Daniel.

00:08:53I'm going to have a deal.

00:08:54All right.

00:08:54Alright, I'm good.

00:09:05All right.

00:09:07No, no, no, no, I was, I was just passing by and just, do you need anything?

00:09:34I was joking. Uh, yeah, could you, uh, pass me the towel that's just hanging up next to the door?

00:09:42Uh, yeah, sure, sure.

00:09:47Dang.

00:09:57Oh my god.

00:09:58What?

00:09:59I just got fired.

00:10:00What?

00:10:01Uh, wait Jess, let me go with you.

00:10:08Yeah.

00:10:20Sam, please, don't fire me.

00:10:22I'm sorry Jess, but your immigration issue put us in a tough spot.

00:10:28I worked for this company for years.

00:10:31I'm sorry Jess, there's nothing I can do.

00:10:36Sorry.

00:10:37Look who's here.

00:10:43Someone who just got fired.

00:10:47This suits you.

00:10:51It was you.

00:10:53I should have known you were behind this.

00:10:55I'm not going to let you stay here and ruin things.

00:10:57I'm going to take away everything you have, sister.

00:11:05You just made a big mistake, sir.

00:11:06Who are you?

00:11:07My name is Daniel Thornton, son of James Thornton, the chairman of Thornton Enterprise.

00:11:14Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, uh, welcome.

00:11:19What brings you here?

00:11:22Well, I have some good news for you.

00:11:24Jessica Miller, she's just closed a billion dollar deal.

00:11:30Take a look.

00:11:42Oh my God.

00:11:47It's real.

00:11:48Absolutely.

00:11:51With her hard work and dedication, she's made this possible.

00:11:54It's a real shame you're going to lose such a valuable employee.

00:11:58Oh, uh, Mr. Thornton, um, I have made a huge mistake.

00:12:04Uh, Jessica will stay.

00:12:08Good.

00:12:10And, uh, make sure nobody knows we have this conversation.

00:12:18Jessica, you should have told me.

00:12:25What are you talking about, Sam?

00:12:26Jessica, you secured a huge deal for the company.

00:12:32Did you not just fire her?

00:12:34I changed my mind.

00:12:36Jessica's staying.

00:12:38Actually, she's being promoted to sales manager.

00:12:43Can't afford to lose someone as valuable as, like, her?

00:12:46Great.

00:12:48Thanks, Sam.

00:12:50This is not over.

00:12:56I can't believe it.

00:12:57Jessica kept her job and she gets promoted.

00:13:00Don't worry, Lisa.

00:13:01I just spoke with James Thornton and he had the lawyer change the will in our favor.

00:13:07Jessica will get nothing.

00:13:09Oh my God.

00:13:11That's fantastic.

00:13:18No way.

00:13:19Jessica?

00:13:20How's work?

00:13:21Did you get your job back?

00:13:23Daniel, I need a lawyer.

00:13:24Wow.

00:13:25Look who decided to show up.

00:13:27Too bad for you, Jess.

00:13:28Turns out daddy's will left you nothing.

00:13:29I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little, pathetic, bastard child.

00:13:30You are out of luck.

00:13:31You are out of luck.

00:13:32I don't know.

00:13:33I knew you were out of luck.

00:13:34What?

00:13:35No, I need a lawyer.

00:13:43Well, look who decided to show up.

00:13:47Too bad for you, Jess.

00:13:48Turns out Daddy's will left you nothing.

00:13:51I knew all along Robert wouldn't leave anything for this little, pathetic, bastard child.

00:13:59You are out of luck.

00:14:00Well, that's a lie.

00:14:02You showed me the will.

00:14:03And I signed the documents.

00:14:06I'm sorry, Jessica.

00:14:08I've just discovered a revised will that supports Kristen and Lisa's claims.

00:14:16Who is this?

00:14:18He's my lawyer.

00:14:19And a damn good one.

00:14:21Oh.

00:14:22You know, Jess, I didn't realize you had enough money to pay for a fancy little lawyer.

00:14:27You sleep with them?

00:14:29Patrick, can I have a word with you outside?

00:14:32Talk all you want.

00:14:34It won't change anything.

00:14:43All right, Patrick.

00:14:45I'm going to keep this short and sweet.

00:14:46I know you changed the will to favor Kristen and Lisa.

00:14:50I know what you're talking about, Mr. Thornton.

00:14:52The revised will saw it.

00:14:54Ted found an email exchange with my father.

00:14:56Here, take a look.

00:14:58You've been caught, Patrick.

00:15:00Honor of the will, I'll report you to the bar association.

00:15:04You'll lose your license and any chance of practicing law again.

00:15:07That goes against your father's wishes.

00:15:09You don't understand the position he put me in.

00:15:11I'll deal with my father.

00:15:12Don't you worry about that.

00:15:15You just worry about doing the right thing.

00:15:17Um, this revised will is a fake.

00:15:25The original will stand.

00:15:26What the hell are you doing?

00:15:27He's doing the right thing.

00:15:31Jessica, you've got your inheritance back.

00:15:34Congratulations.

00:15:35Oh, my God.

00:15:39Patrick, do what you are supposed to do,

00:15:42or James will make sure you face the consequences.

00:15:47Don't listen to it, Patrick.

00:15:49I'll deal with James Thornton.

00:15:51Who the hell do you think you are?

00:15:54James Thornton is one of the most powerful men in this town.

00:15:58I sure can.

00:15:59Isn't that right, Patrick?

00:16:01Yes.

00:16:02The original will stands.

00:16:03No, you are crazy.

00:16:05No, I'm not.

00:16:06According to the original will,

00:16:08Jessica stands to inherit this mansion.

00:16:11Kristen, you're out.

00:16:13I think you two should leave.

00:16:15You homewrecker.

00:16:16Just like your mother.

00:16:18I will not allow violence.

00:16:21I didn't come here to argue over a house and assets.

00:16:27I came here to be recognized as an actual member of this family.

00:16:30Yeah, well, it's easy for you to say you're getting everything.

00:16:32You don't know how lucky you are, Lisa.

00:16:35You grew up with a father who loved you.

00:16:38I had none.

00:16:39And you took my mother away from me,

00:16:42and I still don't know where she is.

00:16:45You two don't deserve this mansion.

00:16:47And I would rather give it away to a charity

00:16:50than to see the two of you living in it.

00:16:52You two should pack your things up.

00:17:01You have one week to leave this house.

00:17:02What the hell were you thinking?

00:17:14Sabotaging my plan?

00:17:15I was just doing the right thing.

00:17:17The right thing?

00:17:18Going against me?

00:17:20Kristen Miller has got no power anymore.

00:17:23Her game is over.

00:17:24I'm sure you didn't come all this way just to argue with me.

00:17:27So what do you want?

00:17:30I just want Jessica to get her mom back.

00:17:34Interesting.

00:17:38What's in it for me?

00:17:40Once Jessica gets her mom back,

00:17:42I'll do whatever you want.

00:17:44Whatever I want?

00:17:46Like what exactly?

00:17:48I'll marry Ashley.

00:17:49You'll marry Ashley?

00:17:54Yeah.

00:17:55You're willing to do that?

00:17:56Yeah, I am.

00:17:59But only if she's reunited with her mother.

00:18:03Okay.

00:18:04Deal.

00:18:06I'll make the arrangements.

00:18:08So you're really in love with this one, huh?

00:18:11Yeah.

00:18:13I am.

00:18:14Okay, kid.

00:18:16I sure hope she's working.

00:18:18She is.

00:18:19What's wrong?

00:18:24We have...

00:18:26a guest.

00:18:29Mr. Thornton.

00:18:31Good to see you again.

00:18:32Interview time.

00:18:34Great.

00:18:37When did you two meet?

00:18:39Uh, we met at a friend's party two years ago.

00:18:43What do you say, Jessica?

00:18:44Huh?

00:18:46Oh, yeah, yeah.

00:18:48Interesting.

00:18:50And when did you decide to get married?

00:18:53Eight months ago.

00:18:53Six months ago.

00:18:55Six months or eight months?

00:18:56Which one is it?

00:18:57Yeah, eight months ago.

00:18:58Sorry, I just...

00:19:00Sorry, I'm always getting mixed up.

00:19:02Sure.

00:19:04Easy mistake to make.

00:19:06And what's your anniversary date?

00:19:08March 15th.

00:19:09March 15th.

00:19:10March 15th.

00:19:12All right.

00:19:17Uh, that's it?

00:19:19Yes, Mr. Thornton.

00:19:21I have everything I need.

00:19:22I'll report back to the judges.

00:19:24Oh, wait.

00:19:27Uh, look at this.

00:19:31How did we do in there?

00:19:35It was pretty bad.

00:19:39Look.

00:19:39I'm the son of James Thornton.

00:19:43I know who you are.

00:19:45Uh, okay.

00:19:49You want to bribe me?

00:19:52Yes.

00:19:53I can't be bribed.

00:19:55Here's one million dollars.

00:20:01Two million dollars.

00:20:03Right.

00:20:07Three.

00:20:08Million dollars.

00:20:10It's tempting, but like I said, you can't bribe me.

00:20:13Please.

00:20:14Can you just give us one more a week to prepare?

00:20:17I really want to be with this woman.

00:20:19She means the world to me.

00:20:20She saved my life.

00:20:21I'm not going to take your money, but I'll give you one week.

00:20:25Make it count.

00:20:28Next time, I want to see some genuine affection between you two.

00:20:31If anything seems a bit off, your game's up.

00:20:34Of course.

00:20:35And one more thing.

00:20:37I can tell you two haven't had sex yet.

00:20:41I'm that good, Mr. Daniel.

00:20:43Don't try and fool me.

00:20:50She gave us another chance.

00:20:51Oh, my God.

00:20:52We have one week to get our story straight.

00:20:55Thank you, Daniel.

00:20:57You've been very, very helpful today.

00:21:01Now, I wanted to make our first Christmas special, so I did a little digging and I found this.

00:21:24This tree is amazing.

00:21:26What happened?

00:21:26Let me have a look.

00:21:35Let me have a look.

00:21:49Um, I have a festive gift for you, too.

00:22:10Wow.

00:22:18Jess, you look gorgeous.

00:22:25And then I told him that's not how you negotiate.

00:22:29You did it.

00:22:30You did.

00:22:40You did it.

00:23:10You did it.

00:23:40You're stuck.

00:23:54Uh, hold on.

00:23:55I've got this.

00:23:56Uh, oh.

00:23:58Uh, oh.

00:23:59Uh, oh.

00:24:01Uh, oh.

00:24:13Uh, oh.

00:24:27Oh, it actually looks familiar.

00:24:57You know, I've seen this before in the magazine.

00:25:02It looks like one of those Fountain and Penley watches.

00:25:09Is it real?

00:25:10Uh, no.

00:25:13It's fake.

00:25:17You wear a fake watch?

00:25:20Yeah.

00:25:27I'm so happy, Jess.

00:25:36There's also something I need to tell you about your mom.

00:25:40Oh, my God.

00:25:57Did I just sleep with Daniel last night?

00:26:00I told him it would only be a contract marriage.

00:26:02Good morning.

00:26:12This is the most beautiful morning that I've ever had.

00:26:16Daniel, I'm...

00:26:16I'm so sorry about last night.

00:26:21It was...

00:26:22It wasn't supposed to happen, and I promise it'll never happen again.

00:26:25She didn't mean it.

00:26:30Oh, Jessica.

00:26:31Last night was amazing.

00:26:33Uh...

00:26:33Yeah, Jess, uh...

00:26:37I get it.

00:26:38It was, uh...

00:26:40It was a one-time thing.

00:26:44Yeah, just like...

00:26:45Just a one-time thing.

00:26:47Yeah.

00:26:47Anyway, it's, uh...

00:26:51Your big day today.

00:26:53We're the new CEO of the Miller Empire.

00:26:57Thank you for the reminder.

00:27:02But now that you mention it, I'm really scared.

00:27:05Oh, no, Jess, I didn't mean it like that.

00:27:09What I was meant to say is...

00:27:12I'm gonna help you.

00:27:14Okay.

00:27:17I don't know what to do, Mother.

00:27:21That bitch is kicking us out.

00:27:22We still have a chance.

00:27:24That bastard child needs a unanimous vote from the board to be chosen as the next CEO.

00:27:30So we just need a board member to back us up.

00:27:33I will call Richard.

00:27:34Everyone respects Richard's vote.

00:27:36And I will make sure he doesn't vote for her.

00:27:39And I'll dig up all the dirt I can find on her.

00:27:42You go, girl.

00:27:43Ha ha ha!

00:27:47These clothes are beautiful, but, uh, very expensive.

00:28:00Like this one.

00:28:02That is...

00:28:04$9,000.

00:28:05Jess, don't worry about it.

00:28:08It's on me.

00:28:09Look at it as, uh, my first gift to my wife.

00:28:13You know what?

00:28:14Daniel, I can't let you pay for this.

00:28:16Look, Jess, you're gonna be a CEO.

00:28:18Which means you've got to look the part.

00:28:21Trust me.

00:28:22It's an investment.

00:28:24Mr. Thornton, welcome back.

00:28:26How can I assist you today?

00:28:28Come here a lot?

00:28:29Uh, no.

00:28:30Well, of course, Mr. Thornton owns this store.

00:28:33Uh, Jess, why don't you try this one on?

00:28:37You'll look great, now.

00:28:38Wow.

00:28:43Jess, you look amazing.

00:28:47You think so, though?

00:28:48Yeah.

00:28:50This is exactly what a CEO would wear.

00:28:52Absolutely.

00:28:53Great choice.

00:28:55We'll take this one.

00:28:57Something in your mind?

00:29:00Well, it's probably nothing, but it's just...

00:29:02That clerk seemed very fond of you.

00:29:05Oh, uh, being friendly is a part of my job.

00:29:10Okay.

00:29:16So that's how you got your lawyer, huh?

00:29:21Now that you mention it, maybe she was a little friendly.

00:29:25But we got a discount.

00:29:27Show on.

00:29:28What a slut.

00:29:42Trust me, Jess.

00:29:43You can do this.

00:29:44Yeah, but what if they don't accept me?

00:29:46They will.

00:29:47Trust me.

00:29:48Just speak from the heart and show your true self.

00:29:52Look at you two little lovebirds.

00:29:56The fennec.

00:29:57Ted, can we talk about this later?

00:30:02Okay.

00:30:05You go in.

00:30:06I'll lead you in there soon, okay?

00:30:13Good luck in there, sis.

00:30:17You're gonna need it.

00:30:18You don't have the votes.

00:30:19I know my background doesn't seem very typical of a CEO, but I built myself from the bottom

00:30:29up here.

00:30:30Miller Corporation is a leader in tech and services, reaching industries from healthcare to energy.

00:30:39We have over 10,000 employees worldwide who have worked hard to build this company from the ground up.

00:30:48And I was one of them.

00:30:49I know them.

00:30:50And I believe that I can help lead this company to become everyone's company.

00:30:56Let's proceed to the vote.

00:30:58All in favor?

00:31:04Robert lost his damn mind.

00:31:06He picked his secret child to be the CEO, only because of his guilty conscience.

00:31:10Richard, if I may...

00:31:13I'm not done talking.

00:31:14You can't lead us.

00:31:16And you're not getting my vote.

00:31:19Richard, if I may speak...

00:31:21Go ahead.

00:31:22But I won't change my mind.

00:31:27Sorry for interrupting everyone.

00:31:29But I have something important to share with you all today.

00:31:32Who the hell are you?

00:31:33Well, Richard, I'm the person who's going to expose you.

00:31:37What did you just say?

00:31:39How do I say this?

00:31:40Uh, you're a sex pervert.

00:31:44What?

00:31:46You see, everyone, this file contains multiple sexual harassment lawsuits against Richard over

00:31:54the past 30 years.

00:31:56Some of them also have ongoing lawsuits.

00:32:00They're all just allegations, and they've all been settled.

00:32:03I'm innocent.

00:32:04They've also got in contact with some of the victims, and they're willing to come forward

00:32:07and testify.

00:32:08Actually...

00:32:09I have not finished yet.

00:32:11You're also stealing money from the company.

00:32:13And we have the financial records to know that.

00:32:21The evidence is clear.

00:32:23He's guilty.

00:32:26Okay, then, let's all vote for Richard Donnell's immediate suspension.

00:32:30All in favor?

00:32:36We have 15 votes.

00:32:39The board has decided.

00:32:40Richard Donnell is officially removed from his position.

00:32:44Security, escort him out immediately.

00:32:46I know my way.

00:32:53And all in favor of appointing Jessica Miller as the new CEO.

00:32:57I'm sorry, I was late.

00:33:14I had to make sure I had enough evidence to nail him.

00:33:17No, don't be sorry, Daniel.

00:33:18That was so worth the wait.

00:33:20Good.

00:33:20This is not over.

00:33:24You'll see.

00:33:25How's packing going, Lisa?

00:33:27You're about to be evicted, sir.

00:33:29Bye-bye-bye.

00:33:30She won again, that bitch.

00:33:37I know.

00:33:37It's so unfair.

00:33:39Do we have a guest?

00:33:40Lisa, honey.

00:33:42I've been trying to reach you.

00:33:44Why haven't you returned my calls?

00:33:46I've been busy.

00:33:47Busy.

00:33:49Dealing with Jessica.

00:33:49How did you know?

00:33:51Oh, I know.

00:33:52And I think I know how to help you take it down.

00:33:56Again.

00:33:57No use to me anymore, Adrian.

00:33:58I only needed you to help me get rid of Jessica.

00:34:02To the new CEO of the Miller Empire.

00:34:07Well, I couldn't have done it without you, Daniel.

00:34:10I also have another Christmas surprise for you.

00:34:14Who are you calling?

00:34:18Is it?

00:34:19Yes, Jess.

00:34:21It's your mother, Clara.

00:34:22Oh, my God.

00:34:23Mom!

00:34:24Oh, Jessica, you're a grown woman now.

00:34:28The Miller family threatened to kill you, Jess.

00:34:31I had no option but to vanish.

00:34:34Oh, Mom, it's okay.

00:34:37You didn't do anything wrong.

00:34:38I'll bring you back into the country, I promise.

00:34:42Daniel, how did you find her?

00:34:44I have a few powerful friends.

00:34:46They did me a favor.

00:34:47But I'll leave you two alone.

00:34:50Two more, please.

00:35:04Daniel.

00:35:06Adrian.

00:35:08Long time no see, buddy.

00:35:09Oh, my God.

00:35:10How long has it been?

00:35:12Ten years.

00:35:13Ten years.

00:35:14Oh, my God.

00:35:16The last time I must have seen you was law school.

00:35:20Yep.

00:35:21Go Reds.

00:35:22Go Reds.

00:35:23What are you doing here?

00:35:27Just in town to run some errands.

00:35:29Just thought I'd come here for a quick bite.

00:35:31Nice, man.

00:35:32Nice.

00:35:33I saw your date earlier.

00:35:34She looks pretty.

00:35:36Yeah, my wife.

00:35:38Your wife?

00:35:38Yeah, Jess.

00:35:39You're married?

00:35:40Yes.

00:35:41Yeah, you have to introduce me to her.

00:35:43Come on, let's go say hi.

00:35:45Come and say hello.

00:35:46It's good to see you, bud.

00:35:47Good to see you too, man.

00:35:47Jess, I want you to meet an old friend of mine.

00:35:51Adrian, this is Jess.

00:35:53Jess, this is Adrian.

00:35:54We went to law school together.

00:36:01I don't want to see him.

00:36:05I don't want to see him.

00:36:09You two know each other.

00:36:11Yes, Daniel.

00:36:12I was her first boyfriend.

00:36:17Come on, Jess.

00:36:19Don't you miss me.

00:36:20I don't want to see you anymore.

00:36:23You know you're still in love with me, Jess.

00:36:25No, I don't.

00:36:30I think you should leave, Adrian.

00:36:32Okay, Daniel.

00:36:33Relax.

00:36:34Now.

00:36:40I'm leaving.

00:36:45She knows she's flying.

00:36:47I should have known.

00:36:58What else?

00:36:59Adrian also used to meet Jessica.

00:37:02Actually, he's the one who sabotaged Jessica's immigration paperwork.

00:37:06It caused all this trouble.

00:37:11That son of a bitch.

00:37:13We need to win this war.

00:37:15Do whatever it takes.

00:37:16Daniel.

00:37:27Sorry.

00:37:28Did I wake you?

00:37:29No.

00:37:30Can...

00:37:31Can you join me in bed, please?

00:37:37You sure?

00:37:38I just...

00:37:39I wanted to apologize for earlier.

00:37:47The restaurant.

00:37:50I got a bit carried away.

00:37:53Jess, you don't need to apologize.

00:37:56Adrian's an asshole.

00:37:57He's just trying to do it to get under your skin.

00:37:59I didn't care for Adrian once, but he just destroyed everything we had.

00:38:06I want you to know that I'm here because of you.

00:38:13And you're the only one who I love.

00:38:18No one else.

00:38:19I love you too, Jess.

00:38:33And I'm not going anywhere.

00:38:34Good morning, husband.

00:38:50Morning, wife.

00:38:52Are you ready for your big day as the new CEO?

00:38:55If only you were with me.

00:38:56You're going to do great today.

00:39:18Jess, here's your coffee.

00:39:32What's wrong?

00:39:33Oh, it's just...

00:39:34It's this job.

00:39:35It's all so new to me.

00:39:38Okay.

00:39:38Calm down.

00:39:39Remember, you're the CEO.

00:39:42Which means you're the boss.

00:39:44Yeah, but I don't know how to be a boss.

00:39:48Hey, Jess.

00:39:49Look at you sitting in the big chair now.

00:39:52Oh, Gina.

00:39:53I am so happy you're here.

00:39:56Aw.

00:39:58You must be Daniel.

00:40:01Jessica's been talking about you for days.

00:40:05I'm flattered.

00:40:06I really wish you'd be here with me, G.

00:40:08It's exhausting.

00:40:09Oh, at least you have a job, Jess.

00:40:11I've been looking for work for the past two months.

00:40:15Jess?

00:40:16Mm-hmm.

00:40:18Do you like Deanna being here?

00:40:22Of course.

00:40:24We've been besties since...

00:40:26forever.

00:40:27Yeah, what kind of question is that?

00:40:29Well, why don't you use your CEO power

00:40:32and hire Deanna?

00:40:35Oh, I don't...

00:40:36I know what you mean!

00:40:38I don't understand.

00:40:39How would you like to come work for me?

00:40:46Of course!

00:40:47Of course.

00:40:48Okay, then.

00:40:49My first order as a CEO.

00:40:53Gianna, you are hired as my personal assistant.

00:40:59Oh, my God, Jess.

00:40:59Thank you so much.

00:41:01See?

00:41:02Being a boss is easy.

00:41:05You can do whatever you want.

00:41:06Oh, my God.

00:41:15What's wrong?

00:41:16The company's stock prices are dropping like crazy.

00:41:20What is happening?

00:41:22This isn't normal.

00:41:24Stock's getting dumped.

00:41:25Well, well, well.

00:41:26Looks like things aren't going so well.

00:41:31What did you do, Lisa?

00:41:32I asked Richard and some of the other investors

00:41:34to sell their stocks.

00:41:37The board members are not going to be happy

00:41:39about the stock prices, Jessica.

00:41:41What do you want?

00:41:43Resign.

00:41:44As CEO, or I will destroy this company.

00:41:47Yeah, no way.

00:41:49Okay.

00:41:51Then I will destroy this company.

00:41:53Jessica, the board members are asking to meet with you.

00:41:56They're angry.

00:42:02What are you going to do, Jess?

00:42:04Okay, I'll meet with the board.

00:42:07Wait, Jess.

00:42:09Don't go.

00:42:10Take a seat.

00:42:11What is it?

00:42:13Lisa, are you sure the stock prices are going down?

00:42:17Because to me, they seem to be going up and up.

00:42:21That's impossible.

00:42:22You would need at least a billion dollars.

00:42:25I guess anything's possible these days.

00:42:28God damn it!

00:42:31God, she's annoying.

00:42:36No, you must be my lucky star.

00:42:38Daniel.

00:42:48Jeanna.

00:42:49I know who you are, Daniel.

00:42:51You're the son of James Thornton.

00:42:54How'd you find out?

00:42:55My identity's meant to be a secret.

00:42:57I used to work for your father.

00:42:59Please don't tell Jess.

00:43:00I'll pay you.

00:43:01How much do you want?

00:43:02I don't want your money.

00:43:03I care for my friend.

00:43:05Actually, your father fired me because I tried to help Jessica.

00:43:10I'm sorry, Jeanna.

00:43:12It's okay.

00:43:14I just want to know why.

00:43:16She hates my family.

00:43:18I have to lie to her.

00:43:20She hates your family, but she loves you.

00:43:24I can see that.

00:43:26You really think so?

00:43:28Yes.

00:43:29I love her too.

00:43:32She's...

00:43:32the best thing that's ever happened to me.

00:43:34Shh.

00:43:36That's good to hear.

00:43:37Please protect her.

00:43:46Daniel.

00:43:48It's my mom.

00:43:50Adrian threatened her.

00:43:56Adrian threatened my mom on the phone.

00:43:59He said he was going to block her from entering the country.

00:44:02What should we do?

00:44:03Jess, I don't want you to worry about it.

00:44:08I'm going to make sure your mom gets here safely.

00:44:09Ted, I need you to make sure Jessica's mom gets here safely.

00:44:30Look her on the first flight out tomorrow.

00:44:31Got it, boss.

00:44:32She'll be here in town the day after tomorrow.

00:44:34Good.

00:44:42Jess has been taken care of.

00:44:44Your mom's going to be here the day after tomorrow.

00:44:46Oh, thank you, Daniel.

00:44:47Oh, thank you, Daniel.

00:44:51But I'm...

00:44:51I'm still scared.

00:44:54I just...

00:44:55I need a day off.

00:44:57I love the sound of that.

00:44:59What do you have in mind?

00:45:00I was thinking...

00:45:02I want to buy a house.

00:45:16So...

00:45:17Do you like this place?

00:45:20It's amazing.

00:45:21But, Jess, I appreciate the gesture.

00:45:25But you don't need to buy me a house.

00:45:29No.

00:45:30No.

00:45:30I insist.

00:45:32You've done so much to help me.

00:45:35Besides, we can live together here.

00:45:38Mr. Thornton.

00:45:39Hi.

00:45:40Your father is here.

00:45:41Are you meeting here?

00:45:43Well, I've never met your parents.

00:45:51So, I'm pretty excited to meet an in-law.

00:45:56Oh, is...

00:45:58Is that him?

00:46:00Come on, let's go say hi.

00:46:02Jess, wait.

00:46:03Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:46:05Um...

00:46:06I might not have told my dad about you and our marriage.

00:46:11Why?

00:46:11Uh...

00:46:13Because he has a heart condition?

00:46:17I think it's best you stay here.

00:46:20Okay.

00:46:22I'll just...

00:46:24stay here, then.

00:46:26Good.

00:46:31Dad?

00:46:33Come on.

00:46:34What the hell?

00:46:35Issac is here.

00:46:36She can't see her face.

00:46:37Don't take them off.

00:46:38I want to talk to you about Ashley, Daniel.

00:46:44Why hasn't Daniel told his father about me and our wedding?

00:46:50Ashley, really, not today.

00:46:55And what is this shirt you're wearing?

00:46:57Your mother insisted I'm wearing this chariot at Des Moines.

00:47:02Right.

00:47:03Said it makes me look more grounded.

00:47:07I'm approachable.

00:47:10And don't go changing our subject.

00:47:12I want to discuss our agreement.

00:47:14I give you Clara and you marry Ashley.

00:47:17Why does he look so nervous?

00:47:25Am I not good enough?

00:47:29Do we have to talk about this right now?

00:47:32I held up my end of the bargain, Daniel.

00:47:34I want this deal done now.

00:47:37Actually, Clara isn't safe yet.

00:47:40Lisa Miller might try to be sabotaging everything.

00:47:43This is why you don't mess with the Miller family.

00:47:46You should have left it alone.

00:47:48All I'm asking is just a few more days.

00:47:50Ashley is coming to town in a few days.

00:47:53What?

00:47:55Jess!

00:47:55Jess.

00:47:56Jess.

00:47:57Dad, this is Jess.

00:48:08Jess, this is Dad.

00:48:10You can call him Jimmy.

00:48:12Jimmy?

00:48:12Hmm?

00:48:14Right.

00:48:16I'm Jimmy, sweetie.

00:48:17It's lovely to meet you, Jimmy.

00:48:19And can I just say, that is a lovely Hawaiian shirt.

00:48:23It really, really suits you.

00:48:25Well, thank you, Jesse.

00:48:27It's one I'm fond of.

00:48:31So, who is Ashley?

00:48:34I heard you guys talking about her earlier.

00:48:36Oh, she's just an old family friend.

00:48:41They grew up and went to law school together.

00:48:45And she had Daniel's first kiss.

00:48:49Oh.

00:48:50Her wedding is approaching soon,

00:48:53and I'd like Daniel to attend.

00:48:55Damn.

00:48:57I'm reminiscing about the good old days.

00:48:59No, it's fine.

00:49:00Honestly, it's lovely to hear about Daniel's childhood

00:49:02and more about his life.

00:49:04You bastard child.

00:49:05Shh.

00:49:06Well, well.

00:49:12What do we have here?

00:49:14You think you can afford this place?

00:49:17You're about to lose this battle

00:49:19and be out on the streets soon.

00:49:22Who's this clown?

00:49:23Looks like he belongs in a circus.

00:49:28How dare you, Kristen?

00:49:31How do you know my name?

00:49:33And don't you dare call me by my first name.

00:49:35That's enough.

00:49:36Don't talk to my father like that.

00:49:41Oh.

00:49:42Oh.

00:49:43He's your father.

00:49:46How does it feel to be a father of such a loser?

00:49:50Don't talk to my family like that.

00:49:53Your family.

00:49:54Your family suck, Jessica.

00:49:57Especially your mother.

00:49:59The home-wrecking tramp.

00:50:02A whore.

00:50:04Oh.

00:50:04Your family suck, Jessica.

00:50:14Especially your mother.

00:50:16The home-wrecking tramp.

00:50:19A whore.

00:50:21Oh.

00:50:21Damn.

00:50:26How dare you slap me.

00:50:29That is enough, Kristen.

00:50:32You're not going to lay a hand on one of them.

00:50:34Ladies, you need to leave.

00:50:39Now.

00:50:40You can't throw us out.

00:50:42We're buyers.

00:50:42We're not going anywhere.

00:50:43The owner of this property has banned you from coming here.

00:50:47You need to leave now or I will call security.

00:50:51You will regret this.

00:50:55I've heard that a thousand times.

00:50:58Now leave.

00:51:08Thank you, Jessica.

00:51:10You stood up for me.

00:51:12Well, we're a family, Jimmy.

00:51:14That's what I'm supposed to do.

00:51:16Well, I appreciate it.

00:51:22You're a nice girl.

00:51:25You found a good wife, son.

00:51:29Dad.

00:51:30About Ashy's wedding.

00:51:32I don't think I'm going to be able to make it.

00:51:34I'll look into it.

00:51:35I'll speak to her about it.

00:51:36Oh, no, no, no, no.

00:51:38Daniel can still attend.

00:51:40It's not a problem.

00:51:42Jess, I just want to focus on you and I.

00:51:44I'm not the jealous type.

00:51:46Plus, I don't want you to miss your first crush's wedding.

00:51:51Well, you decide, Daniel.

00:51:53Oh, there's a long party.

00:51:56You two want to come?

00:51:57It's in three hours.

00:52:00Yeah.

00:52:02Dad, we'll go.

00:52:03Great.

00:52:05I'll see you there.

00:52:16Well, this place is extremely high class.

00:52:20Well, my dad has a few rich friends.

00:52:28And James Thornton is here.

00:52:32I know you don't want to see him.

00:52:34But, Jess, my dad's here.

00:52:37He's going to join us later.

00:52:38Okay.

00:52:40The bidding's about to start.

00:52:46Oh, that bitch is here!

00:52:48I know.

00:52:49Don't worry.

00:52:50We can teach him a lesson.

00:52:51Yeah, how?

00:52:52Let's see if Daniel can handle a little humiliation.

00:52:57With money.

00:52:58Yeah, with money?

00:52:58Bought money.

00:52:59I haven't gotten my inheritance back yet.

00:53:01Yeah, I know.

00:53:02Your mother spoke to Richard.

00:53:03She said he's willing to donate us some cash if we make Jessica look ugly.

00:53:07Oh.

00:53:10You look bad.

00:53:13I know.

00:53:14Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this evening's auction.

00:53:22We have for you the last dance.

00:53:25Bid starts at $1 million.

00:53:35$2 million.

00:53:35Right here.

00:53:39$3 million.

00:53:46$4 million.

00:53:47What are they doing?

00:53:49Where did they get that money from?

00:53:51I don't know, but they're definitely trying to humiliate you here.

00:53:54Really?

00:53:55But I don't even care about this bit.

00:53:58$5 million!

00:54:00Daniel, what are you doing?

00:54:02Don't worry, Jess.

00:54:02I've got this.

00:54:03I've got $6 million.

00:54:14$6 million.

00:54:15Cash.

00:54:16Boom.

00:54:20Watch this.

00:54:22$7 million.

00:54:25$8 million.

00:54:27Did that just happen?

00:54:33Awesome.

00:54:35$10 million.

00:54:36Once.

00:54:37Twice.

00:54:38Sold.

00:54:40There's a gentleman there.

00:54:48Where did you get that money from?

00:54:51Well, do you remember me telling you about I have a powerful friend?

00:54:56Yeah, the one who helped me find my mother.

00:55:00Jessica?

00:55:01James Thornton.

00:55:03In the flesh.

00:55:04Or Mrs. Thornton.

00:55:07I want to apologize to you.

00:55:09I am truly sorry for everything I did to you and your mother.

00:55:13But I'm trying my best to make amends.

00:55:16Well, I don't know what to say.

00:55:20Jess, I know it's a lot to handle.

00:55:22You've just got to trust me.

00:55:23Yeah, but why didn't you just tell me in the first place, Daniel?

00:55:27Jess!

00:55:28Jessica!

00:55:29Jessica!

00:55:29Don't!

00:55:30Follow me!

00:55:35Oh, this could get interesting.

00:55:38Mm-hmm.

00:55:38Oh, look who's all alone.

00:55:52No, just leave, just leave me alone.

00:55:54You're never going to win against James Thornton.

00:55:56He's my mother's best friend.

00:55:59You're going to lose everything.

00:56:00Poor babe, still played by the big boys.

00:56:02Yes.

00:56:03James Thornton and his son have been playing you all along.

00:56:08But what did you just say?

00:56:10James Thornton and his son?

00:56:12Wait, Jess, you didn't know?

00:56:14Daniel Thornton is his son.

00:56:16Oh, my God.

00:56:19Oh, I didn't know that.

00:56:21Now that I do.

00:56:24That's enough.

00:56:26Oh, excuse me, Mr. Thornton.

00:56:29Crown Prince said of the Thornton family.

00:56:31This man's been lying to you all along.

00:56:42Mm, poor little girl's got no one to trust.

00:56:45Both of you, get out of here.

00:56:50Hey.

00:56:50Jess, I've been trying to tell you.

00:56:59Am I a joker to you?

00:57:01No.

00:57:02What do you mean?

00:57:03You and your father.

00:57:06You've been playing me this whole time.

00:57:08No.

00:57:09I've been standing by your side all the time, Jess.

00:57:12I can't, I can't trust you.

00:57:14You lied to me.

00:57:16You're right.

00:57:18You're right.

00:57:20I have been hiding things from you.

00:57:25You know what I haven't told you yet?

00:57:29Another big secret.

00:57:32Are you sure you want to hear this?

00:57:39The other big secret is,

00:57:40the first time we met is what I think it is.

00:57:44It was five years ago.

00:57:46Five years ago?

00:57:48Yes.

00:57:48At a party.

00:57:52I was drunk and I fell in a pool.

00:58:02Oh, thank God you're alive.

00:58:08I was drowning and you saved my life.

00:58:11But you won't remember that.

00:58:13But I will forever be grateful for what you did for me that day.

00:58:18But then, that was you?

00:58:21Yes.

00:58:22My father forbid me from seeing you.

00:58:25But I didn't care.

00:58:27I confronted him.

00:58:29You can't tell me what to do, Dad.

00:58:31You can't stop me from seeing her.

00:58:32I'm doing what's best for you, Daniel.

00:58:34That girl and all her family are nothing but trouble.

00:58:39And then he decided to tell me about everything he did to you and your mom.

00:58:43And I felt so guilty.

00:58:44It's okay.

00:58:45I was ashamed to approach you.

00:58:50I just didn't know how to face you without making things worse.

00:58:53And I thought the best thing to do was just be good.

00:58:57Now I know.

00:58:58And then I heard about you being deported and I just couldn't let that happen.

00:59:01Well.

00:59:02Okay.

00:59:02I saved you, Ruth.

00:59:07You saved me.

00:59:10I guess we just belong together.

00:59:16Ew.

00:59:17Corny.

00:59:20But just...

00:59:22No more secrets.

00:59:25Okay?

00:59:27I promise.

00:59:29No more secrets.

00:59:32You're up early.

00:59:48Yeah.

00:59:49I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport.

00:59:52Better sooner than later.

00:59:57Gianna's just texted me.

00:59:59She said that I have my first weekly exec meeting this morning.

01:00:03I should postpone it.

01:00:05No.

01:00:06You should definitely go to that.

01:00:07You need to look good in front of your board.

01:00:09Really?

01:00:10Yeah.

01:00:11I'm gonna go pick your mom up from the airport and I'll bring her straight to the office.

01:00:14Thanks.

01:00:15You're the best.

01:00:21Well, that went better than I thought.

01:00:22You still know that estimates yourself, Jess.

01:00:25You get brains.

01:00:25What are you doing here?

01:00:26I just want to share with you some interesting facts about your dear husband, Daniel Thornton.

01:00:44Gianna, can you wait outside a moment?

01:00:50Okay.

01:00:51I'm telling you now.

01:00:53Whatever bad, made-up facts that you've come to tell me about Daniel, it's not going to work.

01:00:59Because Daniel already told me everything.

01:01:01Everything?

01:01:02Are you so sure?

01:01:04Yeah.

01:01:05Him as father came clean about everything.

01:01:07There is nothing more to hide.

01:01:09And did they also tell you Daniel was supposed to marry his childhood sweetheart?

01:01:12Ashley Wimbledon, heiress to the famous Wimbledon family.

01:01:18Ring any bells?

01:01:19Ashley.

01:01:23Ashley.

01:01:25Who is Ashley?

01:01:27I heard you guys talking about her earlier.

01:01:30Oh, she's just an old childhood friend.

01:01:34They grew up and went to law school together.

01:01:36Oh.

01:01:37And she had Daniel's first kiss.

01:01:40Oh.

01:01:42He did mention Ashley.

01:01:48He did?

01:01:49Yeah, but he's not going to marry her.

01:01:52I remember that conversation.

01:01:57Daniel's picking my mother up from the airport himself.

01:02:00I'll be seeing her soon.

01:02:03What are you laughing about?

01:02:09Daniel is bringing her back, babe.

01:02:11You're not going to see her.

01:02:17After years of separation with your mother, Daniel didn't let you go along with him to meet with her?

01:02:23And what kind of a husband does that?

01:02:25I had an early meeting this morning, and Daniel didn't want me to worry.

01:02:29So easily manipulated, Jess.

01:02:32Just like old times.

01:02:34Just like old times.

01:02:35Yeah.

01:02:36Well, I don't believe a word you say.

01:02:40Daniel isn't going to bring her back.

01:02:43Care to find out together?

01:02:44Are you sure everything is taken care of?

01:02:54Yes.

01:02:55You're free to live in this country.

01:02:57Clara, I also want to apologize for everything you went through years ago.

01:03:01I'm deeply sorry.

01:03:03Well, you did bring me back here.

01:03:05Right now, I just want to see my daughter.

01:03:08We'll go, sir.

01:03:09Not so fast, Danny boy.

01:03:11I'm sorry.

01:03:12You're too late, Lisa.

01:03:16Clara's here to claim Robert's inheritance back.

01:03:18Oh, I don't think so.

01:03:20Agents, do you think?

01:03:21Wait.

01:03:22What?

01:03:22This is a mistake.

01:03:23No.

01:03:24Clara's got past customs.

01:03:26She can stay.

01:03:27Sweetheart, you really think those little documents can stop this?

01:03:30I don't think so.

01:03:32Back off, Lisa.

01:03:33Watch it, pretty boy.

01:03:35Jess.

01:03:35Jess, Mom!

01:03:36Mom!

01:03:37What are you doing?

01:03:38Where are they taking my mother?

01:03:39Mom, I will bring you back, I promise.

01:03:42Just stay strong.

01:03:43Sis, it looks like you've been screwed by the Thorntons again.

01:03:46Adrian, you sabotaged this.

01:03:49You'll pay for this.

01:03:50See, babe, I told you he's not bringing it back.

01:03:54You said everything was taken care of.

01:03:56Jess, it's not me.

01:03:57It's them.

01:03:58You're lying, Daniel.

01:03:59Why don't you ask him about that thing we talked about, Jess?

01:04:04Jess?

01:04:05He said that you were going to marry Ashley.

01:04:08Okay, so it's true.

01:04:09Jess, can we just talk about this?

01:04:12No.

01:04:13No, no, no, no, no.

01:04:14Thing is, Daniel, you promised me no more secrets.

01:04:17I can't trust you anymore.

01:04:19Jess!

01:04:20Can you?

01:04:20It's just, uh, looks like you lost, Daniel.

01:04:23You'll never get in the back.

01:04:24Oh, thank God you're alive.

01:04:54Ted, what's the problem with Clara?

01:05:16Her paperwork was flawless.

01:05:17You're right, boss.

01:05:19I check a customer in the U.S.C.I.S.

01:05:22A legal confirm that she illegally entered the country.

01:05:25Thank God.

01:05:26What is it, boss?

01:05:29Agents, do you think?

01:05:31Wait.

01:05:32What?

01:05:32This is a mistake.

01:05:33No.

01:05:35Jess!

01:05:36Jess!

01:05:37Baby!

01:05:37Mom!

01:05:40The ICE agents weren't real.

01:05:43They were hired by Adrian and Lisa to kidnap Clara.

01:05:45Hold on a sec.

01:05:47You're right, boss.

01:05:50We found out those people weren't so.

01:05:53What should we do?

01:05:54I need to find out where they took them.

01:05:56Use all our contacts.

01:05:58I'm not going to let them get away with this.

01:06:00On it, boss.

01:06:09Well, well, well, Clara.

01:06:11Bet you didn't expect to see me again, did you?

01:06:14We finally have what it takes to get it all back?

01:06:18Don't put me like that.

01:06:19You disgust me.

01:06:26Jess, we need to talk.

01:06:28I don't want to talk to you.

01:06:29It's about your mom.

01:06:30I think she was kidnapped by Adrian and Lisa's people.

01:06:33The ICE agents weren't real.

01:06:34What are you talking about?

01:06:37I spoke to Ted.

01:06:39He told me that Clara legally came into the country.

01:06:42It was a setup.

01:06:44Do you actually expect me to believe that?

01:06:46After all the lies, you're so full of shit, Daniel!

01:06:49Hello, bastard child.

01:06:59Yes, we have your mother.

01:07:01And if you ever want to see her again, follow the directions to the address that we just sent you.

01:07:05And don't bring anyone.

01:07:07Especially Daniel.

01:07:08Let me come with you.

01:07:13No, they want me alone.

01:07:14I don't want to be scared of you.

01:07:15Jess.

01:07:15Don't follow me.

01:07:16I will not let you do this alone.

01:07:25Mom?

01:07:26Bastard child, over here.

01:07:28You let her go.

01:07:29This has gone on far enough.

01:07:31Not so fast, this.

01:07:33This is only the beginning.

01:07:38You sign this.

01:07:41We let her go.

01:07:43And what is it?

01:07:45An agreement signing everything over to us.

01:07:48The house.

01:07:49Company.

01:07:51Everything.

01:08:00Signed.

01:08:00Now, let her go.

01:08:04God, you are so nice, sis.

01:08:07Now, what more do you want?

01:08:10Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.

01:08:16Get down on your knees and show that you know your place.

01:08:21Wait.

01:08:26That's better.

01:08:30Now, bark like a dog.

01:08:40Come on.

01:08:45That's enough, Kristen.

01:08:51We're getting out of here, Monk.

01:08:52Let's get her out of here.

01:09:00Come on.

01:09:00Let's go.

01:09:01Come on.

01:09:02Daniel!

01:09:06I can't.

01:09:07Mom, we need to finish this.

01:09:09Mom, we gotta go.

01:09:10Come on.

01:09:12Daniel!

01:09:18Jess.

01:09:18Don't try and talk.

01:09:22The police.

01:09:22They're on their way.

01:09:23Jess.

01:09:25I'm so sorry.

01:09:26Why are you apologizing?

01:09:28Just don't move.

01:09:30Oh.

01:09:37The doctor said it was nothing serious, so you'll be out of here soon.

01:09:44Jess, I just want to apologize.

01:09:46I'm so sorry.

01:09:48Daniel, what are you apologizing for?

01:09:52You saved my mom.

01:09:53You saved us.

01:09:56Hello again, Mr. Thornton.

01:09:58Officer, you're here.

01:10:00Yes.

01:10:01You promised me last week we'd get that interview done.

01:10:06Officer, my husband is injured.

01:10:09He's literally lying in bed.

01:10:11Well, that doesn't change the requirements.

01:10:14Jess, it's okay.

01:10:17We can do the interview.

01:10:22We can do the interview.

01:10:25Are you insane?

01:10:27We haven't rehearsed this.

01:10:29Jess.

01:10:30Jess.

01:10:30When you see, we've been rehearsing this whole Christmas.

01:10:34There's no better time to do this.

01:10:36You're right.

01:10:37We're ready, officer.

01:10:42Let's start with the question I asked you last week.

01:10:45When did you two first meet?

01:10:46Five years and four months ago.

01:10:49I don't understand.

01:10:51Last time you said it was six months ago, and the other one said it was eight months ago.

01:10:55We lied, officer.

01:10:57But it was five years ago.

01:11:00At a pool party.

01:11:01And we had our first kiss when we first met.

01:11:07It sounds pretty far-fetched.

01:11:09But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.

01:11:16It sounds pretty far-fetched.

01:11:19But for some reason, I want to give you two the benefit of the doubt.

01:11:24Daniel risked his life to save me and my mother.

01:11:27There's nothing more that he needs to do to prove his love for me.

01:11:31One last question.

01:11:33How frequently have you two spent the night together in the past week?

01:11:43Relax.

01:11:44I can tell it's been at least three times.

01:11:48Right.

01:11:48Well, that's my interview done.

01:11:50You two are quite the couple.

01:11:52Thank you, officer.

01:11:54Daniel.

01:11:55Daniel.

01:11:56She's coming.

01:11:57Who's coming?

01:12:05Your fiancé.

01:12:07That's who.

01:12:11Your fiancé.

01:12:13That's who.

01:12:15Ashley.

01:12:16I guess I'm not done yet.

01:12:18You betrayed my family's trust, Daniel.

01:12:22Ashley.

01:12:23Please.

01:12:24Can't we talk about this?

01:12:26So you're Jessica Miller, huh?

01:12:29Adrian's told me all about you.

01:12:31I don't know what Adrian told you, but it's not what you think.

01:12:36Daniel was supposed to marry me.

01:12:39And then you just waltzed in and ruined everything.

01:12:43Ashley.

01:12:44Our engagement was long over before Jessica came to the picture.

01:12:47Oh, I see.

01:12:52You think this is over.

01:12:56I'm the heiress of the Wimbledon family.

01:12:59The Thornton name is as good as ruined.

01:13:04You can't do that, Ashley.

01:13:06Watch me.

01:13:14You're not the only heiress here.

01:13:17I own Miller Empire.

01:13:23And if you come for the Thorntons, the Miller Empire is going to come for you so hard.

01:13:32You've got guts, Jessica.

01:13:39I like you.

01:13:43I gotta tell you, I didn't expect that.

01:13:46This is so much better than watching TV.

01:13:48Glad to see you've replaced me with someone with a little fire, Daniel.

01:13:52I always knew Daniel didn't love me, but he was too afraid of his father to ever go after

01:14:03his true love.

01:14:05But I guess I'm happy that he's found someone who wants the same things as him.

01:14:13So, that's it?

01:14:18That's it.

01:14:22Enjoy your happy ending, darling.

01:14:28Andrea, bring the car around.

01:14:33Did that actually just happen?

01:14:35Yeah.

01:14:37Wow.

01:14:38You two really don't let anyone or anything get in the way of true love.

01:14:44You see that, Chris?

01:14:47This is all your fault, Mom.

01:14:49If you wouldn't have been so reckless, then maybe you wouldn't be in this mess.

01:14:52Don't put all the blame on me.

01:14:53You're just as much a part of this as I am.

01:14:55Where is Adrian?

01:14:56She'll be here right now.

01:14:59Miss me?

01:15:00Where have you been?

01:15:01Just tying up a few loose ends.

01:15:03Don't worry about it.

01:15:05Everything's going according to plan.

01:15:07Plan?

01:15:08What plan?

01:15:09Everything's falling apart.

01:15:10What did you do, Adrian?

01:15:23Well, me, myself, I done nothing illegal.

01:15:26You two, on the other hand, that's a different story.

01:15:30You set us up!

01:15:31I'm just ensuring my own safety.

01:15:34After all, I kept my hands clean.

01:15:39Ow!

01:15:42You're not going to get away with this, asshole!

01:15:44I already have.

01:15:47Ah!

01:15:50Hm.

01:15:50I remember when this place was filled with warmth and laughter.

01:15:57It used to be a real family home back then, but then things just went south.

01:16:03Things will be fine again, Mom, I promise.

01:16:06We'll turn this into a good family house.

01:16:09No more hatred.

01:16:10No more backstabbing.

01:16:12I missed you every single day, Jess.

01:16:14I'm so sorry for everything both of us had to go through, Mom.

01:16:21Jessica?

01:16:23Well?

01:16:25I am so sorry for everything I've done to you both.

01:16:29I was wrong.

01:16:31And I know I can never fully make up for it, but I want to try.

01:16:36James, you kept us apart for so many years.

01:16:39It's going to be hard to forgive and forget.

01:16:41I know, Clara.

01:16:44Jess, are you all right?

01:16:49Yeah, no, I'm...

01:16:51I'm fine.

01:16:53You know, I just feel...

01:16:55I feel nauseous, that's all.

01:16:58Have you been getting any other symptoms, like...

01:17:01dizziness or fatigue?

01:17:03Well, yeah, but I just thought that was...

01:17:06from all the stress.

01:17:07Oh.

01:17:10Sweetheart.

01:17:11You're pregnant.

01:17:13Really?

01:17:13You're showing all the signs, Jess.

01:17:18We're going to have a baby.

01:17:21Wait.

01:17:22That means I'm going to be a grandpa.

01:17:26Yeah.

01:17:27Oh, kid.

01:17:34Daniel.

01:17:37Something you need to do.

01:17:41What's this?

01:17:43This is a ring your grandma left.

01:17:46And I think this is the perfect time to use it.

01:17:50Come, grandma.

01:17:51You're going to do this?

01:17:52Yeah.

01:17:53Come.

01:17:53No.

01:17:55No.

01:18:03Jess.

01:18:05Jess.

01:18:06What?

01:18:08Jess, I know we've only ever spent time together a week during Christmas.

01:18:12And we've been through so much in that time.

01:18:15And over the past five years, all I've wanted to do is be with you.

01:18:19And I've had to endure the pain of that not being possible.

01:18:23I want to spend every waking moment in time with you.

01:18:26What I'm trying to say is, Jess,

01:18:27Will you marry me?

01:18:35For real this time?

01:18:38Yes, Daniel.

01:18:39Yes, I will marry you.

01:18:40Yes.

01:18:41Really?

01:18:42Yes.

01:18:43Yes.

01:18:44Yes.

01:18:45Yes.

01:18:46Yes.

01:18:47Yes.

01:18:48Yes.

01:18:49Yes.

01:18:50Yes.

01:18:51Yes.

01:18:52Yes.

01:18:53Yes.

01:18:54Yes.

01:18:55Yes.

01:18:56Yes.

01:18:57Yes.

01:18:58Yes.

01:18:59Yes.

01:19:00Yes.

01:19:01Yes.

01:19:02Yes.

01:19:03Yes.

01:19:04Yes.

01:19:05Yes.

01:19:06Yes.

01:19:07Yes.

01:19:08Yes.

01:19:09Yes.

01:19:10Yes.
