00:00:00Girls, your father's here with the cake!
00:00:05Cake!
00:00:08I can't believe I finally finished.
00:00:11I know, it's about time.
00:00:12Hey, we can't all graduate in four years.
00:00:15Oh, I'll get it.
00:00:19Hi, can I help you?
00:00:21Special Agent Wayne, is Henry Dashwood here?
00:00:23Uh, is there a problem?
00:00:24Eleanor, Henry Dashwood, we have a warrant for your arrest.
00:00:27What?
00:00:28You have to come with us now.
00:00:29Daddy?
00:00:30Are you okay?
00:00:31Daddy, what's happening?
00:00:32Call our attorney!
00:00:33Henry?
00:00:34Dad?
00:00:35You have the right to remain silent.
00:00:37What's going on?
00:00:38I don't know.
00:00:42Your husband is accused of fraud, what's commonly known as a Ponzi scheme.
00:00:46What does that mean?
00:00:47Well, basically, it's when a person takes an investor's money, promises a big return,
00:00:52and is paid with other investors' money.
00:00:54But in reality, most of the money is pocketed illegally by whoever is running the scheme.
00:00:59My husband would never do that.
00:01:01Well, I'll defend him as best I can.
00:01:03But the government's case, if they win, Mr. Dashwood would owe a lot of money.
00:01:08The authorities have a list of a couple hundred investors.
00:01:12So what comes next?
00:01:13Well, they have a search warrant to search your home and they'll take any evidence with them.
00:01:19His accounts have already been frozen, so there will be no access to any of his money.
00:01:23But what about the house?
00:01:25What about my home?
00:01:26Well, remember, he hasn't been convicted.
00:01:28If Henry is found guilty, they'll most likely auction it off.
00:01:33But for the time being, they'll put a lien on it.
00:01:35Do you think he's guilty?
00:01:37Well, what I think is irrelevant, but the authorities seem to be building a good case.
00:01:42I'll do everything I can.
00:01:44So what's the worst case scenario?
00:01:47So what's the worst case scenario?
00:01:49If convicted, major prison time.
00:01:52The family seems subdued today for the sentencing of Henry Dashwood.
00:01:57Dashwood was sentenced to a maximum 75 years in prison.
00:02:01Mom, please turn that off.
00:02:04We have enough to worry about.
00:02:06But your father, we have to appeal this.
00:02:08We don't have any money.
00:02:09Guess what?
00:02:11We made the front page of the tabloids.
00:02:13Oh, as if that's something to be proud of.
00:02:18What are we going to do?
00:02:19Marianne and I are going to get jobs.
00:02:21And we're going to pay our own way.
00:02:23We are?
00:02:24Yes.
00:02:25Well, what about Margaret?
00:02:27Her medicine is more than $3,000 a month.
00:02:30Plus doctor visits.
00:02:32Before that was nothing, but now...
00:02:34Okay, but don't we have health insurance?
00:02:36That's with health insurance.
00:02:37Well, we've lost everything.
00:02:39I am not going to lose Margaret, too.
00:02:40No, Mom.
00:02:41We'll get her enough of the medicine.
00:02:43Do you think we can make enough?
00:02:45Well, your Aunt Charlotte has offered me a place to stay,
00:02:48and so if I work in her shop, I may be able to bring in a third of what we need.
00:02:56Okay.
00:02:57All right.
00:02:58Well, Marianne and I will just make up the rest.
00:03:02I mean, all we need are jobs.
00:03:09Oh.
00:03:10This looks promising.
00:03:14Hi, I am calling about the job listing.
00:03:18Okay, thank you.
00:03:21It's already been built.
00:03:22No.
00:03:27Yes, I'll see you in town.
00:03:31Sorry to keep you waiting.
00:03:32No problem.
00:03:33You almost Dashwood, correct?
00:03:34Oh, please, call me Eleanor.
00:03:36Dashwood.
00:03:37Where have I heard that name?
00:03:42I'm concerned your work experience is insufficient for the required qualifications.
00:03:46Um, but I have worked extensively with-
00:03:49Good luck to know.
00:03:54Hi!
00:03:55I'm calling about the executive assistant position.
00:03:59Okay.
00:04:00Babe.
00:04:02Dashwood.
00:04:04Hmm.
00:04:05I-I don't know if you're the best suited for this job.
00:04:10But you haven't asked me a single question.
00:04:14I just-I don't think you fit into the culture we have here at the office.
00:04:19Sorry.
00:04:21Hey.
00:04:25Ugh.
00:04:26You're calling about a job?
00:04:28If you're calling about the file clerk job, it has been filled.
00:04:31For all other inquiries, please press the zero.
00:04:34And the ones that aren't filled?
00:04:36You need more work experience.
00:04:38This is way harder than I thought.
00:04:40If it makes you feel any better, having work experience doesn't help either.
00:04:43Everybody takes one look at Dashwood Investments and promptly kicks me out the door.
00:04:47I'm sorry.
00:04:48I mean, there are jobs out there.
00:04:51They're-
00:04:52Just not quite as glamorous as I'd hoped.
00:04:57Order up!
00:05:00Okay.
00:05:01This is a job.
00:05:02This is a job.
00:05:03This is a job.
00:05:04I am getting paid for this job.
00:05:06And dancing with my banana.
00:05:09Ah!
00:05:10Oh!
00:05:11Ah!
00:05:12Oh!
00:05:13Oh!
00:05:14Oh!
00:05:15Oh!
00:05:16Oh!
00:05:17Who knew this would be so hard?
00:05:20That costume stunk, too.
00:05:22Ugh.
00:05:23I can't believe you got fired.
00:05:25I know.
00:05:26How was I supposed to know that the sprinklers were gonna go off?
00:05:29And that the suit couldn't get wet?
00:05:30I don't know.
00:05:31Oh, well that's why it smelled.
00:05:32It's never been washed.
00:05:35Can it get any worse?
00:05:37I don't think so.
00:05:38I just got fired from a job where I wore a gigantic gorilla costume and waved around a banana at cars passing by.
00:05:45I-
00:05:46You just wait here a moment.
00:05:56Okay.
00:05:58I don't think she's for us.
00:06:00Why not?
00:06:02Recognize her?
00:06:03Uh, so she's cleaning.
00:06:04How hard is that?
00:06:05I don't want the customers to be uncomfortable thinking that she might steal something.
00:06:19She'll be out of sight.
00:06:20And she's gotta be pretty desperate.
00:06:22All right, we'll give her a chance.
00:06:25But you keep your eye on her.
00:06:32Hi.
00:06:33Hi.
00:06:34Any luck?
00:06:35I don't know if you'd call it luck, but I got a job.
00:06:38I am now the new custodial technician at this Bond Main Street.
00:06:43Custodial technician?
00:06:45Janitor.
00:06:46Sounds lovely.
00:06:47Yeah, but I think it's gonna be enough to cover our expenses.
00:06:50I'm just worried about Margaret's medicine.
00:06:53Well, my options were fast food, which pay nothing, or a grocery bagger, that pays even less.
00:06:59I was really starting to give up.
00:07:01But, I checked the internet one more time, and you are now looking at the new copy assistant to a marketing firm.
00:07:06You're kidding! That's amazing! How did you do that?
00:07:12Well, I think you'd do great here.
00:07:16Can you start Monday, Miss Webb?
00:07:18I think you thought I was cute.
00:07:22Wait, so are there any other jobs available?
00:07:25No, but I should be bringing in enough to cover us.
00:07:29Okay, well, we still need to be frugal.
00:07:32Yeah, how am I gonna get to work?
00:07:34The bus is stinky and always running late. We need a car.
00:07:38Well, I actually walked to the spot from here, but a car would come in handy.
00:07:43I'll start looking for something cheap.
00:07:45Something nice.
00:07:47Of course.
00:07:49All right, well, I gotta get ready. I'm going to dinner with John.
00:07:51John? I haven't heard about him in a while.
00:07:54I think he was worried about the job that Dad got him, but he sounded happy, so it must still be going through.
00:07:57Good. Have fun.
00:07:59Thanks.
00:08:03Yay, yay, yay.
00:08:04How are we gonna be able to afford a car?
00:08:06Have you heard from your dad recently?
00:08:16Um, my mom's talked to him. She feels the same.
00:08:21It's been really hard on everybody.
00:08:23My poor mom, she just didn't see that coming at all.
00:08:27She could really use some good news right about now.
00:08:29Well, I have some.
00:08:32Really?
00:08:33The Switzerland job.
00:08:35I thought they were gonna dump me after your dad was arrested, but they're flying me out to start the job.
00:08:40That's great.
00:08:41Yeah.
00:08:42I'm going out there to get trained, start working, and I'll get to explore Switzerland.
00:08:47So when do you leave?
00:08:49This week.
00:08:52And any idea when you're gonna return?
00:08:54I don't know. I mean, no exact dates yet, but the plan is to get started.
00:08:59Um, and then transfer me to one of the offices here in the U.S.
00:09:03Oh, good.
00:09:05Hey.
00:09:06I'll miss you.
00:09:08I'll miss you, too.
00:09:09I'll call you every day.
00:09:23Guess what?
00:09:24I got us a car.
00:09:25Actually, it's a truck.
00:09:27What happened to our TV?
00:09:28Yes, I had to pay for the truck somehow.
00:09:31Listen, it's not what we're used to, but it's gonna get us from A to B.
00:09:35Come look.
00:09:36Come.
00:09:38You're gonna love us. Come.
00:09:42Well, it can get us from point A to point B, but can it get us back to point A?
00:09:46My friend gave me a great deal, so her dad doesn't need it anymore.
00:09:51I already missed the flat screen.
00:09:53No need.
00:09:54I got S.
00:09:55A replacement.
00:09:57This keeps getting better and better.
00:09:58Doesn't it?
00:09:59Do you want to take it for a spin?
00:10:04Honestly?
00:10:06No.
00:10:07Yeah.
00:10:09All right, so here's where we keep all the fresh linens.
00:10:12We have sheets here, towels here.
00:10:14Everything's organized by size, so it's face, hand, and body.
00:10:18Got it.
00:10:20Okay, good.
00:10:22And your uniform.
00:10:24Uniform?
00:10:26Yeah.
00:10:28Great.
00:10:29How's the work going?
00:10:34Oh, it's fine.
00:10:36The bathrooms need a deep cleaning, so you can stay late one night this week and do that.
00:10:41No problem.
00:10:45I'm Hannah, the office manager.
00:10:47I'm not gonna sugarcoat it.
00:10:48You've got a lot of work ahead of you.
00:10:50We come up with marketing campaigns for tons of accounts.
00:10:53People will come to you throughout the day with presentations, contracts, whatever to copy.
00:10:57And this will be your domain.
00:11:00Good luck with the machines.
00:11:01But don't sweat it if you go through a few reams of paper trying to figure it out.
00:11:04Just be sure to log in the copy job with what client it goes for.
00:11:08That way we can build them.
00:11:10Okay.
00:11:11Big talker, aren't you?
00:11:12Well, I was just wondering...
00:11:14I'm at extension 377 if you get in a panic.
00:11:27Hi.
00:11:28You're new here, aren't you?
00:11:29Yes.
00:11:30I hope you can do this.
00:11:31I need 50 copies, collated, three-hole punched, and bound.
00:11:33Okay?
00:11:34Don't use those coil things.
00:11:35Brad's or brackets will be fine.
00:11:36I'll be back in half an hour.
00:11:37Okay.
00:11:38Brad's and brackets.
00:11:39Okay.
00:11:40Okay.
00:11:41Okay.
00:11:42Yeah.
00:11:43Well, that was easy.
00:12:00Come on, what did I do?
00:12:05What did I do?
00:12:06What is with you?
00:12:10Don't stress.
00:12:11It's just a jam.
00:12:13I'm Brandon.
00:12:14You must be the new copy girl.
00:12:15Yes.
00:12:16Mary Ann.
00:12:17Mary Ann Webb.
00:12:18I just need a copy.
00:12:20I just need a copy.
00:12:22That was easy.
00:12:25I think the user manual is on our shelf.
00:12:28Really?
00:12:30Good luck.
00:12:35Hey.
00:12:36My hands are killing me.
00:12:37I'm sorry.
00:12:38Mm-hmm.
00:12:39Oh, you want to use some of my lotion?
00:12:40Yeah.
00:12:41Thanks.
00:12:42Mmm.
00:12:43I forgot how good this one smells.
00:12:44Hey, I've come a long way.
00:12:45Remember when I used to make those concoctions out of clovers?
00:12:46Oh, yeah.
00:12:47How could I forget that?
00:12:48Wow, this already makes my hands feel better.
00:12:49Really?
00:12:50Yeah.
00:12:51I'm not even just saying that to me.
00:12:52I don't know.
00:12:53I don't know.
00:12:54I don't know.
00:12:55I don't know.
00:12:56I don't know.
00:12:57I don't know.
00:12:58I don't know.
00:12:59I don't know.
00:13:00I don't know.
00:13:01I don't know.
00:13:02I don't know.
00:13:03Really?
00:13:04Yeah.
00:13:05I'm not even just saying that to be nice.
00:13:06Can I keep this bottle?
00:13:07Yeah.
00:13:08Go for it.
00:13:09How was your day?
00:13:10It was stressful.
00:13:11I mean, who would have thought making copies could be so difficult?
00:13:13What are you watching?
00:13:14I have no idea.
00:13:16The reception on this thing is terrible.
00:13:18Well, with all that tinfoil and the antennae, I bet you we could pick up a talk show from
00:13:21Mars.
00:13:22Good.
00:13:23Yeah.
00:13:24Hey.
00:13:25Hey.
00:13:26I was just looking for you.
00:13:28Oh.
00:13:29Oh.
00:13:30Can you put together five packets from the file on this drive?
00:13:34Oh.
00:13:35Okay.
00:13:36When do you need it by?
00:13:37After lunch.
00:13:38Is that enough time?
00:13:39Sure.
00:13:40Great.
00:13:45Be careful, dear.
00:13:46My arthritis is acting up, so my feet are awfully tender.
00:13:49Oh, okay.
00:13:50Excuse me.
00:13:51Sorry.
00:13:52I couldn't help but overhear.
00:13:53Try this.
00:13:54What is it?
00:13:55It's a lotion my sister makes.
00:13:57Okay.
00:13:58Oh, that scent.
00:13:59What is it?
00:14:00Ambrosia?
00:14:01Uh, I don't know.
00:14:02It's fruit flowers.
00:14:03I'm not sure.
00:14:04Mmm.
00:14:05Very refreshing.
00:14:07You're welcome.
00:14:08Okay.
00:14:09Let's see.
00:14:10Alright.
00:14:11Okay.
00:14:12Print to copier.
00:14:17Uh, I-T apostrophe S. It's a contraction.
00:14:38Yeah.
00:14:39No.
00:14:40That is the amount.
00:14:41Okay.
00:14:42Bye.
00:14:43Hey, Hannah.
00:14:44Um.
00:14:45Yeah.
00:14:46I noticed a typo on one of the copies.
00:14:47Print it anyway.
00:14:48Are you sure?
00:14:49It's pretty obvious.
00:14:50Our people know what they're doing.
00:14:51It might be a play on words.
00:14:53Yeah.
00:14:54I'm just gonna ask Brandon.
00:14:55Double check.
00:14:56It's for Brandon?
00:14:57Definitely.
00:14:58Just print it.
00:14:59He's senior management.
00:15:00I'm just trying to help.
00:15:01I know you think you are, but your job is simple.
00:15:02Copy.
00:15:03Staple.
00:15:04Hole punch.
00:15:05Don't overstep.
00:15:06Oh, my feet.
00:15:07Was there something wrong with your face?
00:15:08I'm just gonna ask Brandon.
00:15:09I'm just gonna ask Brandon.
00:15:10Double check.
00:15:11It's for Brandon.
00:15:12Definitely.
00:15:13Just print it.
00:15:14He's senior management.
00:15:15I'm just trying to help.
00:15:16I know you think you are, but your job is simple.
00:15:17Copy.
00:15:18Staple.
00:15:19Hole punch.
00:15:20Don't overstep.
00:15:33Oh, my feet.
00:15:35Was there something wrong with your pedicure?
00:15:36Oh, no.
00:15:37I feel like I'm 20 again.
00:15:39This dear girl gave me some lotion.
00:15:41It's really easing the pain.
00:15:43Oh, well, that's good.
00:15:46Do you know where I could find her?
00:15:48That girl who was gathering the towels?
00:15:50That girl?
00:15:51Oh, miss.
00:15:52Miss.
00:15:53Oh, hi.
00:15:54How are your feet?
00:15:55Oh, they feel better than they have in years.
00:15:57I'm wondering if you have any more of that magic lotion.
00:16:00Oh, and Betty.
00:16:01She has terrible back aches.
00:16:03It's her mattress, and her husband's too cheap to replace it.
00:16:06He always says, if it's not broke, don't fix it, but he's just a tightwad.
00:16:10I think this lotion is just what she needs.
00:16:13Well, I don't make it.
00:16:14My sister does, but...
00:16:16Oh, honey, to feel like this, I'm willing to pay for her time and ingredients.
00:16:20You talk to your sister and let me know next week.
00:16:22Okay, I will.
00:16:24Okay.
00:16:25Okay.
00:16:28Sorry.
00:16:29Just don't let it interfere with your work.
00:16:31Got it.
00:16:39Hey.
00:16:40Hey.
00:16:41What are you doing?
00:16:42Saving money.
00:16:44Are you washing those?
00:16:45Hey, whatever cuts costs.
00:16:47All right, all right.
00:16:49So mom called.
00:16:50Oh, how's she doing?
00:16:52She's been better.
00:16:53She is going to send Margaret to visit us.
00:16:56Is everything okay?
00:16:57Yeah, I think so.
00:16:58I think she's just having a hard time at school and just kids.
00:17:01Poor thing.
00:17:02It's like she doesn't have enough to worry about.
00:17:04Yeah.
00:17:05Where are you going?
00:17:06Oh, I'm going to go back to the spa.
00:17:07I'm going to pick up some extra hours, so we'll wait up.
00:17:10I will.
00:17:11Oh, hey.
00:17:12Can I get a couple more bottles of that lotion?
00:17:14I just gave you a full bottle.
00:17:16I know, but there's this customer there who loves it.
00:17:18She wants to buy some.
00:17:19Really?
00:17:20Okay.
00:17:21Okay.
00:17:22Okay.
00:17:23Bye.
00:17:24Bye.
00:17:25Yeah, I'm here.
00:17:27Yes, I'll get it.
00:17:28I've been working in the bathroom.
00:17:34I've been working in the bathroom.
00:17:35I've been working in the bathroom.
00:17:36I've been working in the bathroom.
00:17:41It's hard to make it sound, and I'll shine white.
00:17:44Can't you hear my alarm calling off, it's going to go off so early in the morn, can't you hear friends saying, please Eleanor scrub the floor, Eleanor clean the floor, what?
00:18:13Eleanor clean the floor, who? Eleanor clean the floor, please, oh my god, uh, it's okay, I'm a lawyer, how, how does the fact that you're a lawyer make me feel better? I just stopped by to pick up some stuff from Fran's office, oh, and you are? Yeah, I'm the new custodian, I didn't think there was anyone here, it's okay, it's not every day I get a live concert, yes, yes, well, you know, I was just, I was trying to prepare for my, my career in
00:18:43reality television, oh yeah? Yeah, I thought I'd start with, uh, singing and then I'd move on to dance and then, you know, the survival one I wanted to try and, and maybe the one where I could choose my own husband would be good.
00:18:54Well, I vote for you, Eleanor? Yeah.
00:19:02Um, um, I should go back to work here, I'm trying to impress my boss.
00:19:09I could put in a good word for you.
00:19:10Oh, no, no, no, no, no, that's okay, I'm, I need to earn my reputation.
00:19:16Um, hey, maybe we could keep the, uh, singing thing between just you and me.
00:19:25Yeah, um, but only until you're on TV, because, uh, after that, I make no promises.
00:19:32Oh, that was awesome.
00:19:40Brent?
00:19:45In here?
00:19:47My sister cooking.
00:19:52I took a look at everything.
00:19:54What do you think?
00:19:55I think you have to make some decisions.
00:19:57The spa can only bring in so much, you owe a lot of money.
00:20:02Yes.
00:20:04Thank you for stating the obvious.
00:20:06I don't suppose anybody owes you money.
00:20:08I did loan Lucy a 20.
00:20:15How did you get into so much debt?
00:20:18Oh, you know, startup costs, bills, bleh.
00:20:22Maybe it's time to give it up.
00:20:24Shut down the spa?
00:20:25No.
00:20:26You could move.
00:20:27Maybe someplace cheaper.
00:20:29Change your lifestyle.
00:20:31Not an option.
00:20:33Fran, I'm just trying to help.
00:20:34You're losing more money every month.
00:20:37You're getting second, third, fourth notices of default on your loans.
00:20:41What if I got another loan to float the others?
00:20:45That's just going to make it worse.
00:20:48How long before they threaten to take everything away?
00:20:53Have they already threatened that?
00:20:54I'll figure something out.
00:20:59Fine.
00:21:01Oh, hey, I was surprised to find someone working so late at the spa.
00:21:06She was cleaning the locker room.
00:21:07Oh, that's Eleanor.
00:21:08She didn't give you any trouble, did she?
00:21:10No, not at all.
00:21:12She been working for you a lot?
00:21:13No.
00:21:14Our janitor just quit.
00:21:16Why all the interest?
00:21:17Not interest.
00:21:20Curiosity.
00:21:20Curiosity.
00:21:20Go.
00:21:24Go.
00:21:24Get the guy on the left.
00:21:25I got the guy on the right.
00:21:26Shoot.
00:21:26Shoot.
00:21:27Go.
00:21:27Yeah.
00:21:34Guys, hold on a second.
00:21:38Hi.
00:21:39Hi.
00:21:40I didn't wake you, did I?
00:21:41What time is it there?
00:21:43Uh, it's ten.
00:21:45Ten?
00:21:46I thought you guys were nine hours ahead.
00:21:47Yeah, uh, I must have set my watch wrong.
00:21:52How's work going?
00:21:54It's great.
00:21:55It's great, but, uh, it'd be a lot better if we were together.
00:21:58Well, you better hurry up and impress them so you can come home.
00:22:01I'll do my best.
00:22:03Uh, look, I gotta go.
00:22:04Can I call you later?
00:22:06All right, I miss you.
00:22:07All right, you too.
00:22:09All right, guys, I'm back.
00:22:10You completely embarrassed me.
00:22:19What?
00:22:21There's an error in this.
00:22:22I presented this last night to our CEO and a client that would have been worth five million dollars to this company.
00:22:28I was just told to copy it.
00:22:31Typical.
00:22:31Just do the bare minimum, right?
00:22:33Just enough to get by.
00:22:34Never thinking.
00:22:35I saw the mistake.
00:22:36I took it to my boss, and she told me that you would know what you're doing.
00:22:39Wait, you saw this, and you let it go?
00:22:41Well, why didn't you see it?
00:22:43Had I seen it, I would have fixed it.
00:22:45Don't blame me, because you don't take pride in your work.
00:22:48No, this is what I get.
00:22:50This is what I get for expecting a copy girl to understand.
00:22:57Just go ahead and have a seat, and your pedicurist will be right with you.
00:23:02Excuse me.
00:23:03Yes, ma'am.
00:23:04No, I meant her.
00:23:06Are you the one that makes that special lotion?
00:23:08Oh, yeah, that's me.
00:23:09Well, it's actually you and my sister.
00:23:11Oh, Mrs. Jennings could not stop talking about it.
00:23:14She's the biggest gossip.
00:23:15But when I heard, I figured I'd need to try some.
00:23:19Do you have a bottle I can buy?
00:23:20I do.
00:23:21I do.
00:23:22You know what?
00:23:22It's actually for Mrs. Jennings, but I don't think she comes in until the end of this week.
00:23:27Oh, I'd love it.
00:23:28Okay, I'll go get you one.
00:23:31Anything wrong?
00:23:39Eleanor's selling lotion.
00:23:41Yeah, a customer came in earlier asking about that today.
00:23:44Let me know if any other people are looking for it.
00:23:47Are you going to stop her from selling it?
00:23:50No, not yet.
00:23:52Well, if it isn't the Midnight Idol.
00:24:05Oh, yes.
00:24:06Just one of my many secret identities.
00:24:09Mind if I sit?
00:24:10No, please.
00:24:12You want a break from work?
00:24:14Yeah.
00:24:15The brownies here are amazing.
00:24:17I've never tried them.
00:24:20We were properly introduced the other night.
00:24:22Edward Ferris.
00:24:23Eleanor Dashwood.
00:24:23Ferris.
00:24:24You're not by any chance related to...
00:24:26Yeah, Fran is my sister.
00:24:28Oh.
00:24:29Yeah, don't fall me for that.
00:24:31Well, I won't hold your relatives against you if you don't hold mine against me.
00:24:35Oh, that's right.
00:24:36The investment guy.
00:24:38Yeah.
00:24:42So what are you doing?
00:24:43I'm actually trying to make ends meet.
00:24:47Looks intense.
00:24:49Yeah, it's amazing.
00:24:50The things you just can't do without.
00:24:52Like that brownie.
00:24:54And groceries.
00:24:56And medicine.
00:24:58Medicine?
00:24:59Um, not for me.
00:25:01For my little sister.
00:25:02Oh, what's wrong with her?
00:25:03Um, she has a type of leukemia.
00:25:06It's treatable, but the medicine is really expensive.
00:25:09Yeah, money's heartless that way.
00:25:11You're going to take a lawyer's.
00:25:12Without a good one, your life could be destroyed.
00:25:15Lawyers and doctors.
00:25:15What kind of law do you practice?
00:25:18Patent law.
00:25:18Mostly with corporations and stuff.
00:25:20Hey.
00:25:22Yeah, that doesn't make me any more likable, does it?
00:25:24I'll see if I can maybe overlook it.
00:25:26Good.
00:25:32Hey.
00:25:33Hey, dinner's almost ready.
00:25:35Macaroni and cheese?
00:25:36It's a budget meal.
00:25:38Eleanor, you and your budget meals.
00:25:40Are you okay?
00:25:42Yeah, I just, I had a bad day at work.
00:25:45Already?
00:25:46Mm-hmm.
00:25:47I don't really want to talk about it, though.
00:25:49Are you sure?
00:25:50Yeah, I just love John's whole long voicemail about it, so.
00:25:54Okay, so I've been going over our budget.
00:25:56Ugh.
00:25:57No, it's good news.
00:25:59And bad news.
00:25:59But the good news is we have enough to cover our expenses.
00:26:02The bad news is we're way short on Margaret's.
00:26:04Do we really need to talk about this right now?
00:26:06I have an idea.
00:26:08Okay, what?
00:26:09Your lotion.
00:26:11What about it?
00:26:12It does something to people, and the smell is amazing.
00:26:17So I don't know if it's the scent that just makes people feel better,
00:26:20or if there's actually something in the lotion,
00:26:21but those bottles you gave me the other day, they're gone.
00:26:24And not to the people they were intended for.
00:26:26Really?
00:26:27Do you think we can make more?
00:26:29Yeah, sure.
00:26:31I am just going to need some extra ingredients.
00:26:34Let's see.
00:26:37Calendula and passion flowers, cream, fruit.
00:26:40You should buy a book.
00:26:41Are you feeling okay?
00:26:43Yes.
00:26:44I get to go shopping.
00:26:45Just for the ingredients.
00:26:46Okay.
00:26:47All right.
00:26:47I'm on it.
00:26:48Okay.
00:26:49You can have the mac and cheese without me.
00:26:51Thanks.
00:26:52Thanks.
00:27:11Hi.
00:27:14Hi.
00:27:18Hey.
00:27:19Um, I came by to apologize.
00:27:24I was upset yesterday, obviously.
00:27:26But, um, even without the typo, my proposal wasn't what the client wanted.
00:27:33But what you said about me not taking pride in my work, you're wrong.
00:27:41I do take pride in my work.
00:27:43I take too much, actually.
00:27:45That's why, uh, that's why this is a little hard for me to swallow.
00:27:49It's okay.
00:27:53It's okay.
00:27:56Okay.
00:27:57Thanks for your understanding.
00:28:07Here you go.
00:28:08Oh, I can't tell you how excited I am about this.
00:28:10Oh, good.
00:28:11I hope you enjoy it.
00:28:12Oh, I will.
00:28:12And I've been telling everybody about it.
00:28:14I'd buy them all a bottle, but nobody ever pays me back.
00:28:16Oh.
00:28:17Oh, it's wonderful.
00:28:18Have you smelled this?
00:28:21That is good.
00:28:22What is that?
00:28:23Lilac?
00:28:24Uh, I don't know, with flowers and this and that.
00:28:27Well, I'm off, ladies.
00:28:28Goodbye.
00:28:29Good night.
00:28:31I have never seen her that happy.
00:28:34Good.
00:28:35So, listen, I'm taking off.
00:28:36There's a bunch of towels in the dryer.
00:28:38They're going to be done in, like, 45 minutes.
00:28:39And I'm going to fold them tomorrow morning.
00:28:41Okay, great.
00:28:49Edward?
00:28:51Hey.
00:28:52How are you?
00:28:53Starving.
00:28:54Have you eaten?
00:28:55No.
00:28:56Of course not.
00:28:57You just got off work.
00:28:58Do you want to join me?
00:28:59Yeah, that'd be great.
00:29:00Awesome.
00:29:03Of course.
00:29:05Of course.
00:29:12I am not ignoring the letters.
00:29:17I...
00:29:22Edward didn't come inside.
00:29:27I need you to get something out of Eleanor's locker.
00:29:34What?
00:29:35A bottle of that lotion.
00:29:38You want me to break into her locker?
00:29:40Yes.
00:29:42Is that a problem?
00:29:44No.
00:29:46She just sold some today, though, so I don't think she has any left.
00:29:49Well, then you wait until she brings some more in, and then she won't notice there's any missing.
00:29:54Okay.
00:29:55But you have to set me up with Edward.
00:29:58Done.
00:29:59Yeah, this probably isn't what you had in mind when I mentioned dinner.
00:30:04No, this is perfect.
00:30:06My pleasure.
00:30:07I didn't think a place like this was your style.
00:30:08Well, I wasn't always a lawyer.
00:30:09It's just, uh, it kind of reminds me of growing up.
00:30:11Growing up, I went to garden parties and golf tournaments, but...
00:30:12This feels more real.
00:30:13I like it.
00:30:14Good.
00:30:15Ladies first.
00:30:16Uh-oh.
00:30:17Yeah.
00:30:18I don't think this is going to go very well.
00:30:19Well, we'll see.
00:30:20Okay.
00:30:21Okay.
00:30:22Yeah.
00:30:23Okay.
00:30:24Okay.
00:30:25Okay.
00:30:26Okay.
00:30:27Okay.
00:30:28Okay.
00:30:29Okay.
00:30:30Okay.
00:30:31Okay.
00:30:32Okay.
00:30:33Okay.
00:30:34Okay.
00:30:35Okay.
00:30:36Okay.
00:30:37Okay.
00:30:38Okay.
00:30:39Okay.
00:30:40Okay.
00:30:41Okay.
00:30:42Okay.
00:30:43Okay.
00:30:44Okay.
00:30:45Yes.
00:30:46Okay.
00:30:47Okay.
00:30:48Okay.
00:30:49Oh, that wasn't great, was it?
00:30:50Um, no.
00:30:51No.
00:30:52No.
00:30:53All right.
00:30:55We should have a better one.
00:30:57Okay?
00:30:58Yep.
00:30:59Okay.
00:31:00Step up to the line.
00:31:01Okay.
00:31:02Hold the ball out of here.
00:31:03Yes.
00:31:04And then, as you let the ball come back, step forward, and then release.
00:31:07Boom.
00:31:08That was interesting.
00:31:09Okay.
00:31:10That was interesting.
00:31:11All right.
00:31:12That was great, was it?
00:31:13I mean, isn't that what I did?
00:31:18Uh, no.
00:31:23So aside from being new to bowling, tell me about yourself.
00:31:26Oh, you don't really want to hear about the investment manager turned custodian.
00:31:31No, no. Skip the dirty laundry.
00:31:36I don't know if it's that easy.
00:31:38You know, we get a lot of letters from investors.
00:31:41Angry, distraught, letters.
00:31:45It's a lot of money.
00:31:47And sometimes I hate my dad for what he did.
00:31:51And I love him.
00:31:54Sounds confusing.
00:31:57Yeah.
00:31:59Your turn.
00:32:01Look out.
00:32:03I'll be watching.
00:32:04Okay.
00:32:04Alright.
00:32:05Good form, good.
00:32:12Don't attack. You messed me up.
00:32:14Okay.
00:32:19Oh.
00:32:22Alright.
00:32:23Yeah.
00:32:25Um, can I help?
00:32:27You got it.
00:32:27Okay.
00:32:32Alright.
00:32:32Hold this.
00:32:34Put your fingers in there.
00:32:35Done.
00:32:36Good.
00:32:36Okay, step up in the line here.
00:32:37This line?
00:32:38Yes, very good.
00:32:39So you want to center up on that.
00:32:40Good.
00:32:41Okay.
00:32:41And then hold the ball up to about where your chin is.
00:32:44And then step forward as you bring the ball back.
00:32:46I'm scared.
00:32:46Good.
00:32:47No, you're alright.
00:32:47Just don't drop it on my foot.
00:32:48No!
00:32:49Oh!
00:32:49Oh!
00:32:51Oh, you did it!
00:32:52Thank you for your help.
00:32:55Anytime.
00:33:00Oh!
00:33:01It's my phone.
00:33:06Hello?
00:33:08Right now?
00:33:10No, that's fine.
00:33:12Totally, of course.
00:33:13Okay, bye.
00:33:15You okay?
00:33:16Yeah.
00:33:17Um, my sister is visiting.
00:33:19Oh, uh, I'll take you home.
00:33:20Is that okay?
00:33:21Yeah, yeah.
00:33:22This was really fun, though.
00:33:24Yeah, no, um, I'll tell you what.
00:33:26Promise me a rematch to show off what you've learned, and we'll call it even.
00:33:30It's a deal.
00:33:36Hi!
00:33:37Hey!
00:33:37Hey!
00:33:38Margaret is going to sleep over.
00:33:39Fun!
00:33:40Yeah, we are hard at work making some more soothing scents.
00:33:43Ooh, I want to scrub in.
00:33:44Okay.
00:33:45Water's boiling, so we cannot skip this very important step.
00:33:49So why do you have to boil it?
00:33:51Oh, trust me, you want to.
00:33:52Otherwise, you're skin itches.
00:33:54So what are you guys making?
00:33:55We're trying something new.
00:33:57It's called Eleanor's Love Potion Lotion.
00:34:00Designed to do what?
00:34:02Oh, get you a date?
00:34:04Okay, I was just on a date, I think, when you called.
00:34:09You seriously?
00:34:12You seriously?
00:34:14Well, details.
00:34:15Don't run any details yet.
00:34:17Maybe on the next date.
00:34:18I said I would take the couch.
00:34:30She had so much fun tonight.
00:34:33You want to know what she asked me while you were gone?
00:34:35What?
00:34:37She wanted to know if Dad stole all that money to help pay for the medical bills and medicine.
00:34:42Dad siphoned away more money than we could ever need for medicine or anything else.
00:34:48I know, that's what I told her.
00:34:53We're going to make it through this.
00:34:55Maybe I'll be hard.
00:34:58It's done.
00:34:59Okay.
00:35:01Hi.
00:35:03Hey, it's me.
00:35:04I know.
00:35:05I just wanted to call you and wish you goodnight.
00:35:07Oh, that's really sweet.
00:35:09Hey, where are you?
00:35:10It sounds kind of loud.
00:35:11Oh, about to go into a meeting.
00:35:13The conference room here overlooks these beautiful snowy mountains.
00:35:16That sounds amazing.
00:35:18So you can't talk for too long?
00:35:20Oh, I'm afraid not.
00:35:21But I was just thinking about you and had to talk to you before you went to sleep.
00:35:25Well, I'm really glad you did.
00:35:26Sweet dreams.
00:35:28Sweet dreams.
00:35:31John, how are you, man?
00:35:33Starving.
00:35:34Her name's Patrice.
00:35:35Her father owns five restaurant chains across the country.
00:35:38And she's the one that inherits them all.
00:35:41I can't wait to meet her.
00:35:42Hey, do you need something?
00:36:06What?
00:36:06No.
00:36:06Okay.
00:36:09I was going to go grab an early lunch.
00:36:12Good.
00:36:14Do you want to come?
00:36:17Uh, sure.
00:36:22Great.
00:36:22You want to see me?
00:36:30Yes.
00:36:31The toilet is backed up in the men's locker room and I need you to deal with that and quickly
00:36:35before any clients notice.
00:36:37Okay.
00:36:38Also, the tub in the couple's room needs to be scrubbed.
00:36:41Check that drain for any clogs.
00:36:43We have a client book for treatment room five and she's allergic to all sorts of laundry.
00:36:47So what you're going to have to do is take a set of sheets and hand wash them with baking soda.
00:36:52Use the scrub brush.
00:36:53Be very thorough.
00:36:55Okay.
00:36:55Oh, and our client scheduled for room two has requested satin sheets.
00:37:00She'll be here at noon.
00:37:03Okay.
00:37:06Okay.
00:37:15Ow!
00:37:15Ow!
00:37:15Ow!
00:37:15Ow!
00:37:15Ow!
00:37:15Ow!
00:37:16Ow!
00:37:16Ow!
00:37:17Ow!
00:37:17Ow!
00:37:18Ow!
00:37:18Ow!
00:37:19Ow!
00:37:20Ow!
00:37:20Ow!
00:37:21Ow!
00:37:22Ow!
00:37:22Ow!
00:37:23Ow!
00:37:23Ow!
00:37:24Ow!
00:37:24Ow!
00:37:25Ow!
00:37:34Ow!
00:37:35Ow!
00:37:35Ow!
00:37:43Oh, no.
00:37:44It's, uh, friend's day room two.
00:37:46It's room four.
00:37:47Uh, if you hurry, you can just make it before the client gets here, though.
00:37:50Be sure to put the regular sheets back on that.
00:37:52It makes me sad to think that I'll be leaving too, but I won't question how, oh!
00:38:02Oh!
00:38:03Excuse me?
00:38:04Yeah.
00:38:05Can I help you?
00:38:06Uh, I'm looking for a certain lotion to buy.
00:38:07Oh!
00:38:08My aunt has been talking about it.
00:38:09Oh, yeah.
00:38:10Yeah, I'll get you one.
00:38:11Sounds like it.
00:38:14Bye.
00:38:15Bye.
00:38:16Bye.
00:38:17Bye.
00:38:18Bye.
00:38:19Bye.
00:38:20Bye.
00:38:21Bye.
00:38:22Bye.
00:38:23Bye.
00:38:24Bye.
00:38:25BGERY
00:38:27Singly
00:38:28Best yet to come.
00:38:30Hey, Big Al.
00:38:32Special, please.
00:38:33Hey, Big Al. Special, please.
00:38:37Um, I'll have one, too.
00:38:42I got it.
00:38:43Oh, thank you.
00:38:45Thanks.
00:38:46You're welcome.
00:38:52It's better than I thought.
00:38:55So do you come out here a lot?
00:38:57To the park?
00:38:59A lot more relaxing than the break room.
00:39:02Mmm.
00:39:03Wow, it's all the flowers.
00:39:05Do you know that there are 35 different kinds of flowers in this park?
00:39:08Not a lot.
00:39:09Yeah, can you name even 10 different types of flowers?
00:39:12Red roses.
00:39:14Okay.
00:39:15White roses.
00:39:16Mm-hmm.
00:39:17Yeah, I can't.
00:39:18No, you can't.
00:39:19I can't.
00:39:20Exactly, it's hard.
00:39:21How'd you know that?
00:39:23Flowers are my thing.
00:39:25So who brought you to the coffee room and not a greenhouse?
00:39:28I mean, a girl like you seems like she could get a job anyway.
00:39:33I tried, but I don't really have much work experience.
00:39:38Now my sister, she could run circles around me.
00:39:41What does she do?
00:39:43Um, she recently got downsized, so she works at a spa.
00:39:47Well, if you'd like, I could, you know, ask her on HR, see if there's any positions opening up.
00:39:52That's okay.
00:39:54I think she's warming up to it.
00:39:57Edward.
00:39:58Wow.
00:39:59Um, what brings you here?
00:40:01Just visiting Eleanor.
00:40:02Really?
00:40:03Yeah.
00:40:04Yeah?
00:40:05She's working.
00:40:07Well, didn't you guys just close?
00:40:09She does all the behind-the-scenes things.
00:40:11Besides, I think you could do a lot better.
00:40:15Edward?
00:40:16Hey.
00:40:19Hey, are you done working?
00:40:21Yes.
00:40:22Excellent.
00:40:23How does Indian food sound?
00:40:24Indian food, how delicious.
00:40:26I'm getting hungry myself, Lucy.
00:40:29That sounds delicious, yes.
00:40:31Okay.
00:40:32Well, I should probably get going.
00:40:34It's been a long day.
00:40:36Do you want a ride?
00:40:37No.
00:40:38I'm okay.
00:40:39Thanks.
00:40:40Well, shall we?
00:40:42Yeah.
00:40:47What happened?
00:40:48I don't know.
00:40:49It just died.
00:40:50It barely made it home.
00:40:55Now it won't start.
00:40:57Okay, pop the hood.
00:40:58Let me take a look.
00:40:59Okay.
00:41:01Is that it?
00:41:02Yeah, I think so.
00:41:06So how was your day?
00:41:07Ugh.
00:41:08I don't know how much longer I can stay working at the spa.
00:41:11Did any jobs open up at your office?
00:41:14No, not really.
00:41:18Hey, I had lunch with a co-worker today.
00:41:21Guy or girl?
00:41:22Guy.
00:41:23Oh, actually, my next question is, is he cute?
00:41:26I don't know.
00:41:28I mean, I guess.
00:41:29Is he, like, John cute?
00:41:31I don't know.
00:41:32Besides, it doesn't matter.
00:41:34John and I are together.
00:41:36And Brandon, he's just, like, way too serious.
00:41:39Oh, and the mature thing isn't really for you.
00:41:41Hey.
00:41:42Okay, try it again.
00:41:43Let's see.
00:41:44All right.
00:41:45Yeah.
00:41:46No.
00:41:47I'm officially calling it.
00:41:48Time of death, 6.13 PM.
00:41:51No.
00:41:52No.
00:41:53You know what?
00:41:54It just needs maintenance.
00:41:55No.
00:41:56No.
00:41:57You know what?
00:41:58It just needs maintenance.
00:41:59We don't know the first thing about repair.
00:42:00Well, then we're going to learn.
00:42:02And tomorrow we're going to walk.
00:42:09Isn't this cool, crisp air invigorating?
00:42:11Yeah, it feels like a glacial lake.
00:42:13You know, we wouldn't have to walk if you would have gotten a better car.
00:42:16Hey, you know what?
00:42:17Cars break down.
00:42:18Yeah, but sometimes when you spend less money up front, it costs you more in the long run.
00:42:21Whoa, that's like the smartest thing you've ever said.
00:42:23Rude.
00:42:24So, uh, how much lotion have you sold?
00:42:26What?
00:42:27In the head of this.
00:42:28Oh!
00:42:29Is that John?
00:42:30He's back.
00:42:45I can't believe he did that to you.
00:42:48He lied.
00:42:49You know, there was always something about him that bothered me.
00:42:52Okay, Eleanor, I really don't want to talk about this right now.
00:42:54Let's just go to our work.
00:42:55He lied about Switzerland.
00:42:57We don't know that.
00:42:58Are you kidding?
00:42:59It could be a misunderstanding.
00:43:01That could be his cousin or something.
00:43:03They looked really chummy to be cousins.
00:43:08You know this never would have happened if Dad hadn't stolen money.
00:43:11Please, don't make this about Dad.
00:43:12It made John very uncomfortable.
00:43:14It's been hard on him.
00:43:15This has been really hard on all of us.
00:43:17When times get tough, you see people's true colors and now we've seen his.
00:43:21You don't know that.
00:43:22Stop defending him!
00:43:28Are my copies ready?
00:43:29Oh, yep.
00:43:30There you go.
00:43:32Hey.
00:43:33You okay?
00:43:34Yeah.
00:43:35Tough morning.
00:43:36Um, I wanted to show you something.
00:43:37Maybe after work?
00:43:38What is it?
00:43:39I can't tell you.
00:43:40I want to, but I can't.
00:43:41It's sort of a surprise.
00:43:42Okay.
00:43:43Yeah?
00:43:44Sure.
00:43:45I can't.
00:43:46I can't.
00:43:47I can't.
00:43:48I can't.
00:43:49I can't.
00:43:50I can't.
00:43:51I can't.
00:43:52You can't.
00:43:53I can't.
00:43:54I can't.
00:43:55It's sort of a surprise.
00:43:56Okay.
00:43:57Yeah?
00:43:58Sure.
00:44:15Done.
00:44:43Good.
00:44:45I'll have this analyzed, figure out what's in it.
00:44:48Why?
00:44:51I know somebody who would be interested in buying this.
00:44:54Something that heals, it'd be worth tons.
00:44:57And you keep quiet about it.
00:44:59This could save you your job.
00:45:01It could save the spa.
00:45:07You ready?
00:45:08Still not going to tell me where we're going?
00:45:10Nope.
00:45:11So, um, how long have you been with the company?
00:45:18Five years?
00:45:20Yeah.
00:45:21Five years.
00:45:21Hmm.
00:45:23And family?
00:45:24Out of state.
00:45:28Girlfriend?
00:45:29Uh, no.
00:45:31I was engaged once, years ago.
00:45:33We were probably too young, but it felt right.
00:45:37What happened?
00:45:42Her family really wasn't into it.
00:45:45Mine either, come to think about it.
00:45:47They sort of persuaded us to, uh, hold it off.
00:45:53I think she went on to marry some oil tycoon or something.
00:45:57And what about you?
00:45:58Did you move on?
00:46:01It took me a while.
00:46:03But yes.
00:46:04And here we are.
00:46:09Wow.
00:46:11This is amazing.
00:46:16So, can you tell me how many flowers are in this room?
00:46:19No.
00:46:21Come on, I'll show you my favorite, and you can tell me what it actually is.
00:46:29Hey.
00:46:30Hi.
00:46:31Looks like you're in a good mood.
00:46:32Yeah, I had a really good day today.
00:46:33What about John?
00:46:35Oh, well, I have found someone to distract me.
00:46:38Brandon.
00:46:39Oh, man, I just bought all this ice cream thinking you'd be wallowing tonight over John.
00:46:43He took me to the most amazing garden.
00:46:45Oh, a garden.
00:46:46Good thing I got a flavor I like.
00:46:48I mean, you must like me, right?
00:46:50And John?
00:46:52Jerk?
00:46:58Marianne.
00:46:59Hey.
00:47:00Hey.
00:47:01Thank you so much for taking me to the garden.
00:47:03I had a really good time.
00:47:05So did I.
00:47:05I was actually looking for you.
00:47:06You want to get some lunch?
00:47:08I'm actually going to get lunch with my sister.
00:47:10Hey, I thought we were meeting at the cafe.
00:47:12I was early, so I thought I'd come by.
00:47:14Hi.
00:47:15Brandon Hurst.
00:47:16Eleanor Dashwood.
00:47:17Dashwood?
00:47:18I thought your last name was what?
00:47:21Um, it's my mother's maiden name.
00:47:25No job's open, either.
00:47:27Huh?
00:47:29Eleanor!
00:47:40Hey.
00:47:42Must be so nice, having a good job with people around you who don't care what your name is.
00:47:47I didn't want all the questions.
00:47:51I probably wouldn't have gotten the job if I hadn't...
00:47:53Lied to them?
00:47:55To Brandon?
00:47:57To me?
00:47:58I just...
00:48:00I just had no idea how selfish you are.
00:48:04Selfish?
00:48:05I've been doing pretty well, considering we don't have, I don't know, a TV, a car.
00:48:12I haven't complained once.
00:48:15All you do is complain.
00:48:17And while you've been wallowing in your own self-pity, I have been trying to make this work.
00:48:22Do you think it was easy going around from interview to interview with each person judging me and laughing me out the door?
00:48:27Okay, so that's why I did what I did, so the same thing wouldn't happen to me.
00:48:30No.
00:48:31What you did was worse.
00:48:33You told me there were no jobs available at your office.
00:48:37I have been scrubbing toilets and cleaning out clogged drains with Fran watching over my shoulder.
00:48:45Do you know how much more money we could have made if I had a better job?
00:48:56You're assuming they'd even hire you.
00:48:59Yeah, I am.
00:49:00Then again, I also assumed that you cared about Margaret.
00:49:06Hey.
00:49:21Hey.
00:49:21Hey.
00:49:23You okay?
00:49:28Dashwood.
00:49:29I bet you better.
00:49:33So you're not upset?
00:49:35I know you.
00:49:36Your name doesn't change anything.
00:49:39Well, it does to a lot of people.
00:49:40Well, not me.
00:49:42You and Eleanor are going to be okay?
00:49:45I hope so.
00:49:53Gotta make you feel better.
00:49:55Sweet.
00:49:56All right, I have to ask.
00:50:01What is all this?
00:50:02Well, you know my obsession with flowers.
00:50:04This is what I do with them.
00:50:08You destroy them.
00:50:10No, I make scented lotion.
00:50:13Here, you want to try?
00:50:14Sure.
00:50:15Put some petals right there.
00:50:18I'm going to just go ahead and start mixing it around.
00:50:21One more for you.
00:50:23In a circular motion.
00:50:26Oh!
00:50:26Oh!
00:50:27I'm okay.
00:50:28Are you okay?
00:50:29Yeah.
00:50:30Oh.
00:50:31Well, that is not going to help.
00:50:32Here.
00:50:33Let's try this.
00:50:36Right there?
00:50:37Yeah.
00:50:37How's that feel?
00:50:44What do you mean it doesn't work?
00:51:01I tried the lotion myself.
00:51:03It's a rash.
00:51:04An itchy rash.
00:51:06Well, then you got the ingredients wrong.
00:51:08Did you double check the analysis?
00:51:10Sure.
00:51:10Well, then there's got to be something in the process.
00:51:16Try some variations.
00:51:18Okay.
00:51:19Extra cost.
00:51:19I am paying you plenty for this.
00:51:23Time and resources.
00:51:24Okay.
00:51:26Okay.
00:51:26Fine.
00:51:27Fine.
00:51:28Fine.
00:51:28It's Fran Ferris.
00:51:49Well, that wasn't a very nice thing to say, John.
00:51:53I need you to do something for me.
00:51:55I don't care what you're in the middle of.
00:51:59You do this for me, and I will conveniently forget about Eliza Williams.
00:52:04Rumor has it that if your family were to find out about her, that you would be disinherited.
00:52:09You understand?
00:52:12Good.
00:52:13You need any help?
00:52:22I'm really sorry.
00:52:24I shouldn't have lied.
00:52:27Can you hand me that pan?
00:52:28All right.
00:52:35Okay.
00:52:35Just put it under the engine.
00:52:38Do you want me to climb under there?
00:52:40Okay.
00:52:41Okay.
00:52:42I've been through worse things at the spa.
00:52:43I'm going.
00:52:44Okay.
00:52:49All right.
00:52:50Pan's in place.
00:52:51All right.
00:52:52Here we go.
00:52:52What happened?
00:52:59What happened?
00:53:04Oh.
00:53:05Oh, no.
00:53:06Oh, no.
00:53:07Don't laugh.
00:53:08Oh, no.
00:53:10It's so funny.
00:53:11Yes, it's very funny.
00:53:12Give me a towel.
00:53:13Clean towel.
00:53:14Okay.
00:53:14Clean towel.
00:53:15Everything okay?
00:53:21Yeah, it's peachy.
00:53:22Everything okay?
00:53:23Yeah, it's peachy.
00:53:28What's wrong with the drug?
00:53:29Um, I don't know.
00:53:31It won't start, so I tried changing the oil, but it didn't work.
00:53:35Do you mind if I take a look?
00:53:36Oh, please.
00:53:37Yes.
00:53:38So how's work going, by the way?
00:53:40Work is fine.
00:53:41Most days.
00:53:42I did have to scrub a pair of sheets by hand the other day.
00:53:45Oh, you're kidding me.
00:53:47I wish.
00:53:48And, uh, my sister?
00:53:50Your sister's good.
00:53:51She's fine.
00:53:52You're holding back.
00:53:54Um, I, uh, I get the feeling that she doesn't approve of me or something.
00:53:59I don't know how much longer I'm going to be working there.
00:54:02Yeah, my sister can be a little judgmental sometimes.
00:54:04Sometimes.
00:54:06Okay.
00:54:07Let's give it a shot.
00:54:08Okay.
00:54:12How'd you do that?
00:54:15How'd you do that?
00:54:17The oil.
00:54:20I watched a lot of car shows.
00:54:23Trust me, Dylan.
00:54:24Once we get the bugs worked out, this is going to be very lucrative for both of us.
00:54:28I think your company's going to be blown away by the potential.
00:54:31You realize that going to bat for this puts me at risk for him.
00:54:35You messed this up.
00:54:36My reputation suffers.
00:54:37Oh, you won't be disappointed.
00:54:40Neither will your company.
00:54:41When can I expect this to be fixed?
00:54:43My people are asking about it.
00:54:46I have my entire team working on it as we speak.
00:54:56Surprised.
00:54:56I'm back.
00:54:58Are you not excited to see me?
00:54:59Are you talking to me or the blonde girl you were holding hands with in the park while
00:55:05you were supposed to be in Switzerland?
00:55:06Look, it's not what you think.
00:55:07She's just a friend.
00:55:08Oh, that looked like more than a friendship.
00:55:10And that still doesn't explain what you're even doing here.
00:55:13I know it looks bad, but after your dad was arrested, I was tainted.
00:55:16The job in Switzerland fell through.
00:55:18You said it was still going.
00:55:20I know.
00:55:20I didn't know what else to do.
00:55:22Maybe not lie.
00:55:24And I was afraid that being with you would make it even harder for me.
00:55:26Because I'm a Dashwood?
00:55:33Stupid, I know.
00:55:38Who is she?
00:55:39Crystal?
00:55:40It's just someone to talk to.
00:55:42It meant nothing, honestly.
00:55:44Look, I made a mistake.
00:55:46Can't we just start over?
00:55:47I don't think I'm ever going to be able to trust you again.
00:55:53Let me make it up to you.
00:55:59By the way, how's the hobby going?
00:56:02It's good.
00:56:04You should show me how you do it.
00:56:06I'd love to watch you work.
00:56:09You've never cared before.
00:56:10I do now.
00:56:14Maybe some other time.
00:56:16Or not tonight.
00:56:19Later then.
00:56:22Just the two of us.
00:56:23Cooking up flowers.
00:56:24You've never cared for.
00:56:25You've never cared for.
00:56:26You've never cared for.
00:56:27You've never cared for.
00:56:28You've never cared for.
00:56:29You've never cared for.
00:56:30You've never cared for.
00:56:31You've never cared for.
00:56:32You've never cared for.
00:56:33You've never cared for.
00:56:34You've never cared for.
00:56:35You've never cared for.
00:56:36You've never cared for.
00:56:37You've never cared for.
00:56:38You've never cared for.
00:56:39You've never cared for.
00:56:40You've never cared for.
00:56:41You've never cared for.
00:56:42You've never cared for.
00:56:43You've never cared for.
00:56:44You've never cared for.
00:56:45You've never cared for.
00:56:46You've never cared for.
00:56:47You've never cared for.
00:56:48You've never cared for.
00:56:49You've never cared for.
00:56:50You've never cared for.
00:56:51Hey John.
00:57:05Yes, I got them.
00:57:08They're beautiful.
00:57:11Yeah, I miss you too.
00:57:15That was a fun date.
00:57:18Tonight?
00:57:20Hmm.
00:57:21Well, what time?
00:57:23You know, I'm actually still at work, so do you mind if I just call you when I leave?
00:57:28Okay.
00:57:29Bye.
00:57:32Hey Lucy.
00:57:34Listen, I just noticed that there was a little bit of damage to the lock on my locker.
00:57:38I was wondering if you knew what happened.
00:57:41Why would I know that?
00:57:43Oh no, I don't know.
00:57:44I mean, you know what, I wouldn't worry about it.
00:57:46It's just that I think I'm missing something.
00:57:49You think?
00:57:50Yeah.
00:57:51I'm pretty sure.
00:57:52It's nothing huge.
00:57:53I just, I thought I should mention it.
00:57:55Well, if it's nothing huge, don't bother me with it then.
00:57:59You shouldn't even be selling those bottles anyway.
00:58:02I didn't tell you that that's what's missing.
00:58:05Oh.
00:58:06Lucy, did you have something to do with this?
00:58:11Okay, it wasn't even for me.
00:58:13It was for, it was for Edward.
00:58:16Edward asked me to take it.
00:58:18Why would he do that?
00:58:20Um, he wanted it to sell to some cosmetics company.
00:58:24A cosmetics company?
00:58:26Yeah, he says it's worth a fortune.
00:58:29Men, huh?
00:58:30Oh!
00:58:31I'm sorry.
00:58:32Watch it.
00:58:33Sorry.
00:58:34Eleanor, you really need to maintain a much more professional appearance.
00:58:49Okay.
00:58:50I'm sorry.
00:58:51Um, Lucy was just telling me about she and Edward.
00:58:55Um.
00:58:56Eleanor.
00:58:57What?
00:58:58You didn't really think that Edward was hanging around you for your personality, did you?
00:59:16Brandon.
00:59:17Hey.
00:59:18How was your day?
00:59:19I've had better.
00:59:20I'm sorry.
00:59:21Hey, you want to, uh, come over?
00:59:23Eleanor's making chicken cordon bleu.
00:59:26Thank you, but, um, I think it's best we just kept this professional.
00:59:46Hey, I was just calling you.
00:59:48What's up?
00:59:49The lotion.
00:59:50Edward stole a bottle.
00:59:52He actually got Lucy to do it.
00:59:53What?
00:59:54Why?
00:59:55To sell it to some big company.
00:59:57But that's my lotion.
00:59:59How do we stop them?
01:00:00Well, I don't think we can.
01:00:02It's not protected by a patent or anything.
01:00:04A patent?
01:00:05Yeah, Edward's a patent attorney.
01:00:07I can't believe I didn't see this coming.
01:00:09We were just getting started.
01:00:11Well, can't we get our own lawyer?
01:00:13Ugh.
01:00:14What lawyer can we possibly afford?
01:00:16Brandon blew me off today.
01:00:17Ugh.
01:00:18John lies, Edward steals, and Brandon blows you off.
01:00:19I thought he really liked me.
01:00:20We're doomed.
01:00:21Excuse me.
01:00:22My romantic sensibilities refuse to accept that.
01:00:23Ooh, staunch denial.
01:00:24I like it.
01:00:25What are we doing with our lives?
01:00:26I don't know.
01:00:27I don't want to keep working at this spa, but we need the money.
01:00:28Just quit.
01:00:29You know, why don't you get like a temporary job at the mall or something.
01:00:34Don't bring this.
01:00:35Ooh, stanched denial, I like it.
01:00:38What are we doing with our lives?
01:00:40I don't know.
01:00:41I don't want to keep working at the spa, but we need the money.
01:00:43Just quit.
01:00:45Yeah, why don't you get, like, a temporary job at the mall or something?
01:00:54Don't bring this!
01:00:59Hello?
01:01:02Fran.
01:01:03Yeah, I'm working on it.
01:01:05I just need a little more time.
01:01:06We don't have more time.
01:01:08I keep calling her, she's not ready.
01:01:10Everyone is just waiting on how to make this healing lotion work.
01:01:15You have 24 hours or our deal is off.
01:01:29Hey, John.
01:01:30What?
01:01:33Oh, uh, tonight.
01:01:35Let's see, um...
01:01:39Yeah, that sounds great.
01:01:46Eleanor, hey.
01:01:48I tried calling you.
01:01:49I've been really busy.
01:01:50Can I give you a lift home?
01:01:51No, I'm good.
01:01:59How can you trust John?
01:02:01He called and apologized.
01:02:03I think it's worth another chance.
01:02:05He lied to you and pretended to leave the country.
01:02:07It's not like I have very many options now that Brandon's blown me off.
01:02:12You know, you could go a week without a boyfriend.
01:02:16Come in!
01:02:18I was just taking off.
01:02:22Hi.
01:02:23Hi.
01:02:24Hi.
01:02:26Thanks for letting me come over.
01:02:27I missed you.
01:02:28So, we're gonna cook up your little hobby?
01:02:31I thought we were going to dinner.
01:02:33Sure, after this, okay?
01:02:35Okay.
01:02:36Here it is.
01:02:54How was dinner?
01:02:56Fine.
01:02:58So, we're good now, right?
01:03:00You're not gonna say anything?
01:03:02Yes.
01:03:03If the information on here is accurate, then your secret is safe.
01:03:11Edward.
01:03:12Hi.
01:03:13How are you?
01:03:14Good. Is Eleanor here?
01:03:15No, I haven't seen her.
01:03:16Are you free Friday?
01:03:18I'm busy, thanks.
01:03:23Fran!
01:03:33Yes!
01:03:34You seem awfully excited.
01:03:40New business deal coming through.
01:03:43Oh?
01:03:45Um, did you need something?
01:03:47Yeah, where's Eleanor?
01:03:49I don't know.
01:03:50She didn't show up today.
01:03:51It's unacceptable, really, but what can you expect from people like that?
01:03:54Can I buy you a brownie?
01:04:04Think a brownie can undo what you've done?
01:04:07Okay.
01:04:10You have to help me out here.
01:04:11Your scheme.
01:04:13Stealing the formula for the lotion to sell off.
01:04:16I haven't stolen anything.
01:04:18Okay, a technicality counts.
01:04:19We've got Lucy to do it for you.
01:04:21Lucy?
01:04:22Oh, you can't even admit it.
01:04:24Admit what?
01:04:27You really don't know what I'm talking about?
01:04:29No.
01:04:31You didn't ask Lucy to steal a bottle of lotion from my locker?
01:04:34No.
01:04:36She said you did.
01:04:38Who did?
01:04:39Lucy.
01:04:41Okay, you trusted Lucy.
01:04:43And then Fran said that...
01:04:46I don't know who to trust.
01:04:51I don't know who to trust.
01:04:54You can trust me.
01:04:56Eleanor, I would never do something to hurt you or your family.
01:05:01You have to believe me.
01:05:04I'm so sorry.
01:05:05I thought it was you.
01:05:06Don't be.
01:05:07I understand why you'd be upset.
01:05:10So wait, did Lucy steal it?
01:05:12I don't know.
01:05:14And if not for you, then who?
01:05:19Wait, what was this formula to? A lotion?
01:05:21Yes, that lotion that Marianne makes with the flowers.
01:05:24Flowers.
01:05:26Fran.
01:05:27Fran?
01:05:28Yeah, Fran. She had something in her office.
01:05:29Instructions and ingredients.
01:05:31Instructions? What would she have?
01:05:32Wait a second.
01:05:35Marianne was going to teach John Willoughby.
01:05:38I have to call Marianne.
01:05:44Hi, I...
01:05:46How could you?
01:05:47Calm down.
01:05:49You stole it.
01:05:51Don't be so naive. It's worth a fortune.
01:05:53It's wrong.
01:05:54You're such an idealist. Don't you see? This solves everything for me.
01:05:59You actually think you're right?
01:06:02Well, it's not that black and white, Edward.
01:06:05Give it back.
01:06:07The formula?
01:06:09It's too late.
01:06:11Fran.
01:06:13I sold it. I'm just waiting for payment to come in. Don't you see? I took care of everything.
01:06:17Hey, I got your message.
01:06:29Oh, whoa!
01:06:30Did you really think that I wouldn't find out?
01:06:32Look, look, it's not what you think.
01:06:34Oh, okay, so you didn't steal my lotion and sell it to Fran Ferris?
01:06:38Okay, that part's right, but I had a reason.
01:06:40Oh, a reason. Wow, what a relief.
01:06:43Look, Fran's been blackmailing me.
01:06:45It's a tough situation.
01:06:47Try me.
01:06:48Alright, I had a friend.
01:06:50And she got pregnant.
01:06:52If my family found out, it would be a disaster for me.
01:06:55For you?
01:06:57I cannot believe I ever loved you.
01:07:01You only care about yourself.
01:07:03Hey, now that's pretty hypocritical coming from you, Marianne.
01:07:06Well, at least I am ashamed of it.
01:07:08It's not my fault.
01:07:09Fran made me do it.
01:07:10Oh, please, don't tell me you didn't have a choice.
01:07:13I didn't!
01:07:14Look, if your father hadn't been arrested, everything would have been fine.
01:07:17Until I found out that you lied to us all.
01:07:20Why didn't you just break up with me?
01:07:23Because...
01:07:25I love you.
01:07:27Let go! Get off of me!
01:07:29Hey, hey, hey!
01:07:30Stay out of this!
01:07:31Just let her go, man.
01:07:32Fine.
01:07:33Let's go, Brandon.
01:07:34Wait, you know this guy?
01:07:37Wait, you know this guy?
01:07:38Who's cheating now, you little skank?
01:07:49John and Fran tried to steal the formula.
01:07:51Tried?
01:07:52They did steal it.
01:07:53Fran's been drowning in debt.
01:07:54She must have seen this as her way out.
01:07:55So what are you gonna do?
01:07:56I mean, you can't let him get away with it, can't you call the police?
01:07:59No, that won't amount to anything.
01:08:01This is a nightmare.
01:08:03There is one thing we can do.
01:08:04What?
01:08:05We can beat Fran to it.
01:08:06All right, this pitch has to be perfect.
01:08:11It's a long shot, but I'm hoping to listen to me.
01:08:15And how do you know them?
01:08:16They're one of our biggest accounts.
01:08:17Here you go.
01:08:18Eleanor?
01:08:19Hmm?
01:08:20Can you make a smaller version of that so I give everybody a sample?
01:08:23Yeah.
01:08:24Great.
01:08:25And can you prove this?
01:08:26Yes.
01:08:27Definitely.
01:08:28So give it all, so give it all, so give it all, so give it all, so give it all, so give it all, so give it all.
01:08:39Your Honor, yes?
01:08:40I wanted to check and make sure a courier delivered a filing from my front.
01:08:46Great.
01:08:48Well, thank you very much.
01:08:51Is it the same here?
01:08:52Here.
01:08:56We ready?
01:08:58Are you sure this is going to work?
01:09:00It will.
01:09:00And what about Fran?
01:09:02I'll take care of Fran.
01:09:04Together we're stronger.
01:09:08This is a great deal for you.
01:09:11Yes, you've mentioned that once or twice.
01:09:15Excuse us.
01:09:19Excuse us.
01:09:22Uh, this is a private meeting.
01:09:23Edward.
01:09:24Starting road, but you should have all the facts for your company's sake.
01:09:27Facts?
01:09:28This man is obviously in the wrong room.
01:09:32The formula Ms. Ferris is trying to sell you was stolen.
01:09:34Which we improve quite easily with Ms. Dashwood's documentation.
01:09:40How do we know this is legitimate?
01:09:41The proof is all there.
01:09:43But in the meantime, we filed an injunction against Ms. Ferris to premise this sale.
01:09:47Edward, are you sure this is the right time to be...
01:09:50Yes, definitely.
01:09:51We'll need our team to get to the bottom of this.
01:09:53That's understandable.
01:09:54We wouldn't want you to become victims of Ms. Ferris' actions as well.
01:09:57However, we've presented this lotion to another company that has agreed to purchase the formula.
01:10:01But from us, it's rightful owners.
01:10:04I don't know where these people came from, but there's clearly been some sort of mistake.
01:10:11Edward.
01:10:12I'm your sister.
01:10:16And you should know better.
01:10:22You completely swindled me, you know that?
01:10:23But Dylan, it's not my fault.
01:10:26Our biggest competitor just applied for a patent on lotion.
01:10:30Our company lawyers are breathing down my neck because of an injunction they received about stolen property.
01:10:35It's not like that.
01:10:37Our lawyers are going to sink their teeth so deep into your scheming hide that not even your little lotions will help heal you.
01:10:43In case you haven't heard, the lotion deal was finalized today.
01:10:59You know, the irony with this is that you were so mean to Eleanor.
01:11:04Thinking she was going to steal from you.
01:11:06Then you stole from her.
01:11:10I guess I have to be careful now.
01:11:12I don't want everyone to know that my sister's a thief.
01:11:17Edward, I...
01:11:17By the way, Eleanor quits.
01:11:35I'm doing this all wrong, aren't I?
01:11:37No, you're...
01:11:38Actually, you are.
01:11:39Yeah, wait, let me show you.
01:11:41You're doing your wrist.
01:11:43Um, you're actually still doing it wrong.
01:11:47Legally, we're not supposed to be making this up anymore, now that you sold the formula.
01:11:51This is a new problem.
01:11:53Yeah, Brandon thinks we need to develop more to sell off.
01:11:57Oh.
01:11:58Margaret says they got the check.
01:12:01Mom must be ecstatic.
01:12:03You should be too.
01:12:04Margaret's going to be okay.
01:12:06We did it.
01:12:07We all did it.
01:12:10Hey, will you give me that flower over there?
01:12:12Yeah.
01:12:15Oh, no, not that one.
01:12:16The other one.
01:12:17Really?
01:12:28I'm ready.
01:12:58you okay yes yes i was just thinking about how i'm gonna miss her
