00:00:01If this were a rom-com, how would it go?
00:00:06Well, since you're my boss,
00:00:10you'd obviously have to be a workaholic.
00:00:18And I'm an impressionable underpaid assistant
00:00:23who just moved to the city.
00:00:25You forced me to be your girlfriend to trick your parents.
00:00:32My father doesn't think that I'm serious enough to keep the division.
00:00:36And I hate every second of it.
00:00:39Are you enjoying the view?
00:00:42But then, helping you trick your parents
00:00:45lets me see you on a deeper level.
00:00:48And then what happens?
00:00:55Oh!
00:01:03Oh!
00:01:05Oh!
00:01:10Oh!
00:01:14Don't get distracted now, mister.
00:01:29Stop talking.
00:01:32You had better be yawning from the back of an Uber, mister.
00:01:36What?
00:01:37Oh, fuck.
00:01:38Kids in gay tomb party.
00:01:39You were supposed to remind me.
00:01:40I left 14 sticky notes on your desk.
00:01:44God damn it, you cannot relate to this.
00:01:46Who's that, big boy?
00:01:47Please tell me this one doesn't think she's got a shot with you.
00:01:51Um, she's from Portugal?
00:01:53She knows this is just a flame.
00:01:54You're cheating on me with someone from Portugal?
00:01:57On second thought, Grace, you're going to have to handle this for me.
00:02:01I'm calling the car.
00:02:02Shower off your bad decisions and get in.
00:02:06Okay.
00:02:10This was fun, Nadia.
00:02:12But, uh, it's time for you to go.
00:02:14You can see yourself out, can't you?
00:02:16Yeah.
00:02:30Whoa!
00:02:31Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:32Whoa!
00:02:33Whoa!
00:02:33Whoa!
00:02:34Whoa!
00:02:35Whoa!
00:02:36Whoa!
00:02:37Whoa!
00:02:37Whoa!
00:02:38Whoa!
00:02:39Whoa!
00:02:40How many of these days you're going to end up smeared across the hood of some Mercedes?
00:02:42Yeah.
00:02:43So nice to see you, too.
00:02:48Whoa!
00:02:48How do I look?
00:02:54Perfect.
00:02:56I mean, fine.
00:02:58Good.
00:02:59You look good.
00:03:01I'm just glad you made it.
00:03:03Shall we?
00:03:04Mm-hmm.
00:03:06You know I've only ever met your family on the phone?
00:03:08Yeah.
00:03:09You'll see why.
00:03:10Yeah.
00:03:10You'll see why.
00:03:10You know how much shit my father's going to give me now that I'm the only single wolf?
00:03:34Brennan!
00:03:35Brennan!
00:03:36Oh, God.
00:03:37Deal with that.
00:03:38Please.
00:03:39Please.
00:03:42Help me.
00:03:43Isn't it?
00:03:44Look, it's nothing personal, but Brennan...
00:03:46You!
00:03:47You!
00:03:48You're the little assistant that's been keeping us apart.
00:03:51Because what?
00:03:52You think you have a shot with him?
00:03:54Whore?
00:03:55No.
00:03:56No.
00:03:57Our relationship is strictly professional.
00:03:58It's pathetic.
00:03:59Give it up, sweetheart.
00:04:01He's not interested.
00:04:02You're just the girl who kipped him his coffee.
00:04:07Well, look who it is!
00:04:08Big bro!
00:04:09Kate.
00:04:10Congratulations on all of... this.
00:04:13It's great.
00:04:14I really do feel blessed.
00:04:15I'm marrying the love of my life soon.
00:04:16My division is killing it.
00:04:17Have you seen our projections?
00:04:18Yeah.
00:04:19You know, I could give you a chance to get a chance to get a chance to get a chance to
00:04:20get a chance to get a chance to get a chance to get a chance to get a chance to get a chance to get a chance to get a chance.
00:04:21Look who it is!
00:04:22Look who it is!
00:04:23Big bro!
00:04:24Kate.
00:04:25Congratulations on all of... this.
00:04:28It's great.
00:04:30I really do feel blessed.
00:04:33I'm marrying the love of my life soon.
00:04:35My division is killing it.
00:04:37Have you seen our projections?
00:04:40Yeah.
00:04:41You know, I could give you some pointers.
00:04:44I saw your numbers.
00:04:472% growth is not gonna cut it.
00:04:50Not when Dad is in slashing mode.
00:04:54Oh, you haven't heard?
00:04:56At next month's board meeting.
00:04:58If you're not caught up.
00:05:03Oh, but don't worry.
00:05:05I'm sure you'll find something.
00:05:09Hmm.
00:05:10Maybe Mickey D's is hiring.
00:05:12You do look good in yellow.
00:05:15Now, if you don't mind, I have well-wishers to greet.
00:05:21Excuse me.
00:05:25Office, now!
00:05:37But we just got here.
00:05:38Now!
00:05:39So, the whole division's just gone?
00:05:49No.
00:05:50Because you're gonna get an action plan on my desk by tomorrow.
00:05:53Tomorrow is Saturday.
00:05:55Mr. Wolf.
00:05:59I'm Howard Bernstein from the Bernstein Corporation.
00:06:03Now, I know we didn't have a meeting set up,
00:06:05but I have a potential business opportunity for you.
00:06:07Sorry, sir.
00:06:08All scheduling needs to go through now.
00:06:09Mr. Wolf.
00:06:10I really think we should discuss this.
00:06:16Oh!
00:06:17Oh!
00:06:18Apologize to my assistant,
00:06:20or the next meeting you take will be from a hospital bed.
00:06:22Oh!
00:06:23Oh!
00:06:24Jeez!
00:06:25Okay!
00:06:26All right!
00:06:27God!
00:06:28Okay!
00:06:29I'm sorry!
00:06:30I'm sorry!
00:06:33Now, you.
00:06:34Action plan.
00:06:356 p.m. tomorrow,
00:06:36and you get the fuck out of here and leave my assistant alone.
00:06:41You, sir, are a brute.
00:06:52Again?
00:06:53What is it?
00:06:54Ms. Reynolds,
00:06:55I'm calling you as your mother's next of kin.
00:06:58Unfortunately, this call is to provide you with a time of death.
00:07:01Sorry.
00:07:02Excuse me.
00:07:03Time of death?
00:07:05Ms. Reynolds,
00:07:06your mother is dead.
00:07:07Your mother is dead.
00:07:19Grace,
00:07:20I need you to get a hold of Miller at the...
00:07:26What is it?
00:07:29My mother's dead.
00:07:34Grace, are you serious?
00:07:35Okay.
00:07:38Sorry.
00:07:39You said that we need...
00:07:41Miller?
00:07:42You need me to call Jordan Miller?
00:07:43Grace, don't worry about that.
00:07:44Go...
00:07:45You need to go.
00:07:46No, no, I can't.
00:07:47No, I can't.
00:07:48We've got...
00:07:49I'm telling you as your boss.
00:07:50You need to go.
00:08:05I can't.
00:08:06I can't.
00:08:07I can't.
00:08:08I can't.
00:08:09I can't.
00:08:10I can't.
00:08:16Why are you going back to work?
00:08:18Didn't Brendan give you, like, a whole month off?
00:08:22Yeah, but...
00:08:24he needs me.
00:08:27Look, I know you're desperately in love with this man, but he...
00:08:31I am not.
00:08:38Okay.
00:08:39Fine.
00:08:41I love him.
00:08:43Are you happy?
00:08:44I've loved him for five fucking years and he does not give a shit about me.
00:08:51I give him all of my waking hours.
00:08:54I get rid of his hookups.
00:08:57I even check the security cameras on my phone every day because he doesn't trust the alarm company.
00:09:03You don't want him taking advantage of you, then don't let him.
00:09:07You deserve love, not dirty work.
00:09:162% growth in this economy is impressive.
00:09:19Above industry standard.
00:09:20Kate's division saw 8% last month alone.
00:09:24Well, why don't we ask the IRS about Kate's growth?
00:09:27One of these days that behavior is going to come back to bite her in the ass.
00:09:30It's not just business.
00:09:33Kate's a serious person.
00:09:34She's settling down.
00:09:36And you're still in the tabloids.
00:09:38With floozies.
00:09:40Ever since Dulcie...
00:09:42This has nothing to do with my personal life.
00:09:44I am more than capable of this.
00:09:46You want your division?
00:09:47Show me you're serious.
00:09:49Otherwise, I'll be making my recommendation to the board.
00:09:52I've got to go.
00:10:00Grace, what are you doing here? I thought you were still on bereavement.
00:10:11What is this?
00:10:13This is me.
00:10:16Quitting.
00:10:17No.
00:10:27Absolutely not.
00:10:29Excuse me?
00:10:31Look, if you still need more time to grieve...
00:10:34This is not about my mother.
00:10:38Brennan, I need a fresh start.
00:10:40I cannot keep going around in circles with you.
00:10:44These last five years, I have been torturing myself trying to get you to see that...
00:10:49It doesn't matter.
00:10:54I'm done.
00:10:55No.
00:11:03You're not.
00:11:05You're still under contract for another year.
00:11:07What kind of leader would I be if I just let my employees leave just because they wanted to...
00:11:12Have a fresh start?
00:11:15Do you want to do this the hard way, Brennan?
00:11:18Okay.
00:11:20Fine.
00:11:26Hi.
00:11:27I need to speak with one of your attorneys, please?
00:11:30No, any one of them is fine.
00:11:33Okay.
00:11:35What the fuck? What are you doing?
00:11:37Look.
00:11:39I'll allow you to quit.
00:11:41Under one condition.
00:11:44You become my girlfriend.
00:11:50Excuse me?
00:11:51Look, my father doesn't think that I'm serious enough to keep the division.
00:11:56He and my mom are coming this weekend to stay with me for Kate's wedding and...
00:12:00Well, I just... I need to prove to him that I'm done fucking around.
00:12:04Are you?
00:12:07Right. I didn't think so.
00:12:09So ask Naomi.
00:12:11Or Miss Portugal. Anyone.
00:12:14There's a line of girls a mile long who would be happy to help you.
00:12:16But Grace!
00:12:18You're the only one that I trust.
00:12:21Look.
00:12:23If you do this for me...
00:12:26Avoid your contract.
00:12:28And then you can go and do whatever it is that you want.
00:12:31With a glowing recommendation from myself.
00:12:34I can't do this anymore, Brennan.
00:12:37I can't keep doing your dirty work.
00:12:41I deserve better.
00:12:43I deserve to...
00:12:44Grace!
00:12:46I need you.
00:12:54It's just for the weekend.
00:12:56Right?
00:12:58Just for your parents.
00:13:02Fine.
00:13:04I'll stay for the weekend, and then I'm gone.
00:13:14What the hell?
00:13:16What was that?
00:13:18Practice.
00:13:33Brennan?
00:13:34Brennan?
00:13:37Okay.
00:13:38You can do this.
00:13:40You just have to get through this weekend, and then you can forget about Brennan Wolfe for good.
00:13:48Hey, babe.
00:13:49You're a good idea.
00:13:50You're a bad idea.
00:13:51You have to talk to her when she comes down.
00:13:52You only have to walk to your Homeless bedroom.
00:13:53You're a good idea.
00:13:57Some of you were going to tell her.
00:13:59She's a good idea.
00:14:01She's just walking around!
00:14:03She's a good idea.
00:14:05She's a good idea.
00:14:06She's a good idea.
00:14:07Open space, just don't go to my side or get into any of my stuff.
00:14:12Yeah, you don't seem to use your closet much.
00:14:17Are you enjoying the view?
00:14:25Wait.
00:14:32Here.
00:14:34Take this.
00:14:35What is this?
00:14:37Well, your wardrobe is passable as my assistant, but my girlfriend would never wear this.
00:14:47First thing in the morning, go and get yourself a new wardrobe.
00:14:49100,000 max.
00:14:51100,000?
00:14:55No, I can't do that.
00:14:57No, just think of it as a bonus.
00:15:02Fine.
00:15:04It's getting late.
00:15:05I think I'm going to turn in.
00:15:09Do you mind?
00:15:12Most long-term couples share a bedroom.
00:15:17Absolutely not.
00:15:30Look, my parents get in tomorrow.
00:15:32We have to make this thing look real, at least.
00:15:34Okay, then, tomorrow you're welcome to the floor.
00:15:39Until then, find another bedroom.
00:15:41There's like 50 in this place.
00:15:44Fine.
00:15:45You win.
00:15:45But I'll be downstairs watching a movie if you can't sleep.
00:15:55How about a rom-com?
00:15:59Sure.
00:16:00I want to do that.
00:16:20And I want you now.
00:16:23Then what are you waiting for?
00:16:25Well, I think that's my cue.
00:16:48Good night, Brennan.
00:16:49I think I'm falling in love with you.
00:16:55I know you don't have to say anything.
00:16:57I just...
00:16:57I wanted you to know.
00:17:10Brennan?
00:17:10What are you doing here?
00:17:29So smooth.
00:17:30So smooth.
00:17:30I know you don't have to say anything.
00:18:00Wow.
00:18:03You look...
00:18:05Nice.
00:18:08Thanks.
00:18:16They're here.
00:18:19Prepare yourself.
00:18:22Rennie!
00:18:24Mother.
00:18:26Oh my goodness.
00:18:28This must be Grace.
00:18:32Brennan!
00:18:33She is absolutely darling.
00:18:38No wonder you've been keeping her all to yourself.
00:18:43Still, you might have mentioned her at some point.
00:18:46Oh, that'll be Kate.
00:18:52She's here for dinner.
00:18:54Oh, um...
00:18:55I didn't realize she'd be joining us.
00:18:58Oh, well I wanted to include everyone.
00:19:01The whole family.
00:19:08Sweetheart.
00:19:08Oh, come here, honey bunny.
00:19:10I still can't believe you finally tamed my brother.
00:19:18How'd you do it?
00:19:19Oh, uh, I was in Soho.
00:19:24Oh!
00:19:26Don't tell me you met in a bar.
00:19:28Oh!
00:19:29No!
00:19:30Of course we didn't meet at a bar.
00:19:33Do you want to tell them, baby?
00:19:35Or should I?
00:19:37Um, you tell it, sweetheart.
00:19:41I'll tell.
00:19:41I used to work for Cross & Co.
00:19:46I know, I know, you're biggest rivals.
00:19:49Brennan and I hated each other.
00:19:51Always stealing clients and competing.
00:19:55But I always thought he was cute.
00:19:59One day, we were pitching the same client.
00:20:01We were coming out of the building
00:20:02when I took a step out into the road without looking.
00:20:05I know, I know, it's a terrible habit that I have.
00:20:09A car came barreling down the road at me
00:20:11and before I knew it,
00:20:12I felt a pair of strong arms pull me back.
00:20:15And when I opened my eyes,
00:20:16I found myself staring up at your son.
00:20:20How could I hate him after that?
00:20:23And as they say,
00:20:25the rest is history.
00:20:36And, uh, I've been saving her from traffic ever since.
00:20:39Wow.
00:20:40Oh, my gosh.
00:20:44That sounds like something straight out of a movie.
00:20:48Doesn't it, honey?
00:20:49Hmm.
00:20:50Almost too good to be true.
00:20:52I tell you to get serious.
00:20:56And then you pick some random girl up off the street
00:20:59and suddenly you're...
00:21:00You're in love?
00:21:02Samuel.
00:21:02You've always been this way.
00:21:04Always taking the easy way out.
00:21:07Content to settle in the middle.
00:21:09Coasting along on your name and your money.
00:21:12You have no idea what you're talking about.
00:21:14Brennan cares more about his company
00:21:18than anyone I've ever met.
00:21:20He's dedicated and conscientious and he's...
00:21:24Sam.
00:21:27Dinner and a show.
00:21:34Lucky me.
00:21:36Thanks for the fun night.
00:21:50Brennan, I...
00:21:52I have some contracts to go over.
00:21:54Excuse me.
00:22:10Oh, Mrs. Wolfe.
00:22:12I'm so sorry.
00:22:14I don't know what came over me.
00:22:16I was completely out of line
00:22:17and I want to apologize.
00:22:19Grace, I love my husband.
00:22:22But he's always been too hard on Brennan.
00:22:24Thank you so much for defending him.
00:22:30I can tell.
00:22:31You really do care for him.
00:22:35I do.
00:22:35I do.
00:22:42Nightcap?
00:22:52I thought you were mad at me.
00:22:54No, I...
00:22:56I just thank you
00:23:00for standing up for me tonight.
00:23:06I don't think it really helped our cause.
00:23:10I think your dad hates me.
00:23:12But my mom loves you
00:23:14and so it cancels out.
00:23:18You were really good.
00:23:20I'm sure they'll buy it.
00:23:25How are you so good at this?
00:23:28At what?
00:23:29At pretending to be in love.
00:23:35Well,
00:23:35my mom and I used to watch rom-coms.
00:23:41It was kind of our thing.
00:23:44I remember.
00:23:45She would always tell me,
00:23:47don't kid yourself.
00:23:49Real guys will always let you down,
00:23:52but rom-com guys are forever.
00:23:54Anyway,
00:23:57I guess
00:23:58what I meant was
00:23:59I may not be good
00:24:02at real love,
00:24:04but
00:24:04I'm great at rom-coms.
00:24:09Plus,
00:24:09I mean,
00:24:09some of that is true.
00:24:10I mean,
00:24:10you are always saving me
00:24:12from traffic.
00:24:12Grace,
00:24:19you must really miss your mom.
00:24:23I'm so sorry.
00:24:30Yeah.
00:24:30It's hard
00:24:34to lose
00:24:36the one person
00:24:36in the world
00:24:37who
00:24:37makes it all make sense.
00:24:42Yeah.
00:24:44Trust me.
00:24:46I get it.
00:24:48You lost someone?
00:24:49I thought I knew
00:24:52everything about you.
00:24:56Not everything.
00:24:58Do you...
00:24:59Do you want to
00:25:00talk about it?
00:25:07I...
00:25:08I don't know
00:25:11if I
00:25:11can.
00:25:14It's...
00:25:15It's okay.
00:25:16You can tell me.
00:25:30Maybe...
00:25:31Maybe some other time.
00:25:36So,
00:25:36if this were
00:25:39a rom-com,
00:25:41how would it go?
00:25:45It's very funny.
00:25:47No,
00:25:47I'm actually
00:25:48being serious.

00:27:39So, uh, something like that?
00:27:42Huh?
00:27:43I mean, if we're going to convince my parents, we'll have to kiss in front of them, so something like that would work, right?
00:27:51Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, that's... that's fine.
00:27:56Good. Yeah.
00:27:58Um, well, um, we should probably turn it.
00:28:04Sure.
00:28:09You are not going to be able to sleep like that.
00:28:35I'll be fine.
00:28:39Come on, this bed is pretty big.
00:28:48Plus, you need to be well-rested to keep up the ruse, right?
00:28:53Just take the other side of the bed.
00:28:57Okay.
00:28:58Okay.
00:28:58Good night.
00:29:15Good night.
00:29:16Good night.
00:29:30Good night.
00:29:35Good night.
00:29:36Good night.
00:29:39Fuck!
00:29:59Christ!
00:30:09Good morning.
00:30:39Brennan, we need to talk.
00:30:47I owe you an apology, son.
00:30:50It pains me greatly to see that you're not like Kate, you're not.
00:30:56Great apology so far.
00:30:58But you're still my son, and I care about you deeply.
00:31:04So what do you know about this grace?
00:31:08What do you mean?
00:31:11I've seen her type before.
00:31:13They appear from the woodwork and attach themselves to great families.
00:31:19They're like leeches.
00:31:21I do not want to see my company fall into the hands of some gold digger.
00:31:30How dare you talk about grace like that?
00:31:33You have no idea what she's done for this company.
00:31:36For me.
00:31:37You have no idea what she's done for me.
00:31:38I couldn't do this without her.
00:31:39Without who?
00:31:41I'll be going, but think about what I said.
00:31:58What was that all about?
00:32:00We have to step up our game.
00:32:02Look, my father's still suspicious of you.
00:32:05What the fuck are we going to do?
00:32:07I thought this was going to work.
00:32:08Hey.
00:32:09It's okay.
00:32:11We'll figure this out.
00:32:13You said you think your mom likes me, right?
00:32:15Maybe we can convince your mom to talk to him and he'll come around.
00:32:20You know, that's not a bad idea.
00:32:36What is wrong with this?
00:32:49You like it with cinnamon.
00:33:01So, about last night.
00:33:09Well, aren't you two just the cutest?
00:33:14Mom, I didn't see you come in.
00:33:16Sorry to interrupt you too, lovebirds, but I was just on my way to pick out the flowers for the reception.
00:33:22Poor Kate.
00:33:23She's just so busy with her work that she hasn't had any time to do wedding prep.
00:33:28So, would you like to come with me?
00:33:31Oh, she'd love to.
00:33:33Oh, I don't want to intrude.
00:33:35You too, mister.
00:33:37Mom, but I have to work.
00:33:38Oh, please.
00:33:39The last thing this family needs is another workaholic.
00:33:43Shall we?
00:33:48Oh, hey.
00:33:49I love these flowers.
00:33:50I think you're going to be so excited about them.
00:33:52I know.
00:33:53I'm really excited.
00:33:54Exciting city.
00:33:55Thanks for taking me a long time.

00:38:30Oh, nothing.
00:38:32Just the photo shoot.
00:38:33Brennan got a little carried away.
00:38:36What's that?
00:38:38Family tradition.
00:38:40No, Kate.
00:38:42Consider it an early wedding present to me.
00:38:45Me and Alec versus you guys.
00:38:47Come on.
00:38:50We never got to play with Dulcy.
00:38:53Who's Dulcy?
00:38:56You haven't told her?
00:38:58Look, that's none of your business, Kate.
00:39:03Fine.
00:39:05Game on.
00:39:06All right, it's easy.
00:39:13Hers means you have to answer questions about Brennan.
00:39:15His means he has to answer questions about you.
00:39:18Each correct answer gets a point.
00:39:20Whoever gets the most points wins.
00:39:22Are you ready to lose?
00:39:27How bad can it be?
00:39:28It's not like we're strangers.
00:39:30Let's start with a question for the boys.
00:39:32Okay.
00:39:36All right, first question.
00:39:39What is your partner's go-to lunch?
00:39:41Okay.
00:39:54And three, two, one, flip.
00:40:02Oh, come on.
00:40:03The amount of times I picked that sandwich up for you at work.
00:40:07When I was surprising you.
00:40:09Great.
00:40:12Everybody gets a point.
00:40:14Grace, you pull.
00:40:16Another boys question.
00:40:23When did your partner lose their virginity?
00:40:35Three, two, one, flip.
00:40:36Okay, this is scary.
00:40:41You know me too well.
00:40:43That's the idea, babe.
00:40:51Alec, baby, it's you.
00:40:52Now it's about the girlies.
00:40:55What's your partner's favorite band?
00:40:57Three, two, one, flip.
00:41:10Three, two, one, flip.
00:41:19Katy Perry?
00:41:21What the hell is Blood Orange Grove?
00:41:22Brennan, you're up.
00:41:27Brennan, you're up.
00:41:29You're up.
00:41:31All right.
00:41:57Last question.
00:41:59What is your partner's favorite movie genre?
00:42:10And he gets a point.
00:42:12Finally, his first one.
00:42:14That makes 16 for The Lovebirds and 37 for me and Alec.
00:42:21Match made in heaven, baby.
00:42:22You remember you quit, right?
00:42:43You don't have to keep working for me.
00:42:44Yeah, well, who else is going to check the security cameras for you?
00:42:57Grace, I know you're upset.
00:43:02But it's just a stupid game, right?
00:43:05It doesn't matter.
00:43:08I think I'm going to turn in.
00:43:10Night.
00:43:11No, Grace.
00:43:14Look, I'm trying.
00:43:15Here.
00:43:17Okay?
00:43:18You can't just shut me out.
00:43:20Talk to me.
00:43:22There's nothing to say, Brennan.
00:43:25Look, you're right.
00:43:27None of this matters.
00:43:28After this weekend, we'll go our separate ways and back to reality.
00:43:38Speaking of, I drafted a list of replacement assistants.
00:43:43It should be in your email.
00:43:46Now, if you'll excuse me.
00:43:49Grace.
00:43:50Thanks.
00:44:12Thanks.
00:44:13Thanks.
00:44:14I'm sure he's not hiding anything.
00:44:37Maybe she's just an old friend or something.
00:44:40But it's not just that.
00:44:42The other day, we were playing this couples game, and he didn't know anything about me.
00:44:49I've made his life perfect for years, and he couldn't even bother to learn my favorite band.
00:44:55I know it's hard, but clearly he cares about you.
00:44:58I mean, he brought you home to meet his parents.
00:45:01I'm sure he didn't do that with all the other girls.
00:45:07I need to tell you something.
00:45:08I need to tell you something.
00:45:38Maybe he was starting to fall for me, for real.
00:45:42I mean, we kissed a couple of times.
00:45:45And the other morning, I woke up and he was holding me.
00:45:49I guess I was just deluding myself like Naomi and all the others.
00:45:53I said I was done with this.
00:45:57I quit, for God's sakes.
00:46:00But then he roped me in, and like a fucking idiot, I let him pull me right back in.
00:46:06It's like I haven't learned anything.
00:46:07Grace, you're not an idiot.
00:46:09You're just a romantic.
00:46:12And that's different.
00:46:13I don't know.
00:46:18Maybe my mother was right.
00:46:20Real men always let you down.
00:46:25I'm not going to get my hopes up.
00:46:27I just have to get through the weekend, and then I can put Brennan Wolfe behind me.
00:46:32Cheers.
00:46:32Cheers.
00:46:32Come in.
00:46:55Late night booty call in your office.
00:46:57Just like the good old days.
00:47:00Glad you finally saw the light, lover.
00:47:18Brennan?
00:47:20Baby?
00:47:22Where'd you go?
00:47:23I'm right here.
00:47:24No, this was, this was a mistake.
00:47:29You need, you need to go.
00:47:32No.
00:47:33The only mistake was you letting me go.
00:47:39No, you need to go.
00:47:42Get out.
00:47:43What the fuck, Brennan?
00:47:45Go!
00:47:54Brennan, is that you?
00:48:12Mom, what are you doing up?
00:48:16I have something for you.
00:48:17I wanted to give it to you earlier, but I just wanted to let you know how happy I am that you and Grace have found each other.
00:48:26It's just been so long since Dulcy, and I, I was beginning to worry you'd never find it again.
00:48:34Mom, I, uh...
00:48:36It's okay.
00:48:37You deserve to feel love again.
00:48:39And I know now might not be the right time, but I wanted to give you this.
00:48:54Your father proposed to me with it.
00:48:56And when the time comes, maybe, you could propose to Grace with it.
00:49:07It just, it feels so much like last time.
00:49:11Mom, what if that means that it's all gonna fall apart again?
00:49:16It's okay, sweetie.
00:49:18That feeling is fear.
00:49:20And all that means is, that it's real.
00:49:23You said you needed to see me?
00:49:42Now who needs reminding that I quit?
00:49:45Look, there's something I want to tell you.
00:49:48I, uh...
00:49:50I want you to be my girlfriend.
00:49:53It feels like we've covered this.
00:49:58No.
00:49:58I mean...
00:50:00Like, for real.
00:50:02This time.
00:50:04What did you just say?
00:50:07I've been an idiot.
00:50:09Right, I've taken you for granted, and these last few days have made me realize I can't live without you.
00:50:16Rather, I, I don't want to.
00:50:17I want to make us official.
00:50:24What do you say?
00:50:33Wait.
00:50:34If I could live anywhere in the world, where would I live?
00:50:48What?
00:50:49I...
00:50:49Who's my hero?
00:50:53I...
00:50:54What's my mother's name?
00:50:56What's my favorite childhood memory?
00:50:57What are my favorite hobbies?
00:51:02Where am I from?
00:51:05You say you can't live without me, Brennan.
00:51:08No, you can't live without what I do for you.
00:51:11Besides the fact that I make your life easier, you don't know anything about me.
00:51:15I know that you're kind.
00:51:28I know that you're not afraid to stand up for people you care about.
00:51:34That you love your mom.
00:51:38That you're an extremely hard worker.
00:51:40That you snore.
00:51:48I know that you make me feel safe.
00:51:51And happy.
00:51:53And good.
00:51:55And if you give me a chance, I'll learn the rest.
00:52:02Please.
00:52:04Grace.
00:52:04Grace.
00:52:10Grace.
00:52:38Here.
00:52:38It's never stopped you before.
00:52:52Hey there, beautiful.
00:52:53You look like you've been up all night.
00:53:09And whose fault is that?
00:53:11Mom.
00:53:19Get me?
00:53:23Hand.
00:53:27Okay.
00:53:29Hold still there, Mr. Wolf.
00:53:33This will make you look awake, there.
00:53:44Wow.
00:53:48You are a miracle worker.
00:53:51What else is down?
00:53:57Stay.
00:53:59Stay.
00:54:02Stay.
00:54:09You know, when I get married, I'm not inviting any of these people.
00:54:14In fact, I'm not inviting anyone at all.
00:54:16Vegas elopement.
00:54:18Elvis impersonator.
00:54:20Reception at the casino.
00:54:22It works.
00:54:24It's very romantic.
00:54:26Yeah.
00:54:28What about you?
00:54:30I don't know.
00:54:32Oh, come on.
00:54:33Don't tell me you haven't thought about it.
00:54:34I mean, doesn't every single one of those rom-coms have some sort of cliché fairytale wedding?
00:54:45I guess I never imagined it because I've never been in love before.
00:54:51All the guys I've been with haven't... something hasn't felt right.
00:54:57It's like I've been waiting for someone.
00:55:00What about you?
00:55:06What about you?
00:55:08What about me?
00:55:10Have you ever been in love?
00:55:15Excuse me.
00:55:16Do you mind if I borrow my son for a moment?
00:55:22Be my guest.
00:55:39Time to pay the piper, bro.
00:55:42What the fuck is this?
00:55:43Kate.
00:55:47The other night...
00:55:49I went down to get a drink of water.
00:55:52And that's when I heard your so-called girlfriend saying something very interesting to her little friend.
00:55:59She's not your girlfriend after all, is she?
00:56:02Look, Dad, I don't know what you...
00:56:04No more of your lies, son.
00:56:06And do not ask your mother to intervene.
00:56:08I knew this was wrong from the get-go.
00:56:11Now I have proof.
00:56:13I'll be meeting with the board on Monday morning,
00:56:16and then you'll begin the process of transferring your division's assets over to...
00:56:21Wait!
00:56:23Look, I don't know what Kate heard, or thinks she heard,
00:56:28but what Grace and I have is real.
00:56:30I swear.
00:56:31I'll prove it.
00:56:34I'll prove it.
00:56:36No.
00:56:37DEREK
00:56:43Not at all
00:56:45DEREK
00:56:47DEREK
00:56:48Excuse me, everyone.
00:57:03Excuse me, may I please just have a moment of your time?
00:57:08And will my lovely girlfriend, Grace Reynolds, please join me?
00:57:18Grace, I've known you for a very long time, honestly feels like forever, and recently something's changed and I've realized just how deep my love for you runs.
00:57:40And now I'd like to formalize that love.
00:57:48My father gave my mother this ring 30 years ago, and through all the hardships they've endured, this ring has remained a symbol of their enduring love.
00:58:06Yesterday my mother gave it to me, and today I'd like to give it to you.
00:58:12Grace Reynolds, will you do me the honors of making me the happiest man on earth?
00:58:18And allow me to be your husband.
00:58:32Yes.
00:58:34I'll marry you.
00:58:48I want to talk to you.
00:59:06Grace, I know, I know, but my father and Kate, they were circling me and-
00:59:10You'll resolve my contract today.
00:59:13I'll stay with you publicly until your father agrees to leave your division alone, but then I'm gone.
00:59:18And I never want to see you again.
00:59:23Why?
00:59:23Grace, this was a mistake.
00:59:37But-but I put a stop to it.
00:59:38I-I promise, nothing happened.
00:59:41Why should I believe you?
00:59:43I mean, it's on the tape.
00:59:45Watch it.
00:59:46Grace,
00:59:47Grace, you've been my assistant for five years.
00:59:52You know me.
00:59:55You know everything about me.
00:59:58Not everything.
01:00:00What's that supposed to mean?
01:00:03Who's Dulcy?
01:00:05This is personal.
01:00:09Well, you just asked me to marry you, so what's yours is mine, right, honey?
01:00:13Who is she?
01:00:21Nothing to say.
01:00:25Well, it doesn't matter.
01:00:27Because I'm done.
01:00:28I'm done.
01:00:43Grace.
01:00:55Oh, thank God.
01:00:58What is this?
01:01:00Where am I?
01:01:04What's wrong with me?
01:01:07Grace, just-just calm down, okay?
01:01:09You're gonna hurt yourself.
01:01:11You-you were hit by a car.
01:01:14What?
01:01:15You got a spinal injury.
01:01:18And-well, you're suffering from paralysis.
01:01:21But-but it's only temporary.
01:01:23The doctor said that you'll walk again.
01:01:24You just-your body needs time to recover.
01:01:28I should be in a hospital.
01:01:31Grace, we have the very best doctors on retainer.
01:01:35Mom, can Grace and I just have a moment, please?
01:01:37Of course.
01:01:40But if you need anything, just call.
01:01:42I'll be in the next room.
01:01:49Grace, when I saw you outside on the street, I-I was so fucking scared.
01:01:57I thought I'd lost you.
01:01:58Lost your little prop, you mean.
01:02:00How could you say that?
01:02:03Do you-do you really think I don't care about you?
01:02:06Brennan, if your father wasn't in the picture, would you have even asked me out?
01:02:15I...
01:02:15Yeah, I didn't think so.
01:02:19You can keep trying to trick yourself into thinking that you care about me, but this whole time you were just playing pretend.
01:02:27I'll stay here until I can walk again, but...
01:02:29We're over.
01:02:32Grace, I...
01:02:34Okay, whatever you want.
01:02:41That's not true.
01:03:02Angela, I love you.
01:03:06Love isn't a single tender thought about me in the middle of the night, Xavier.
01:03:09I know that.
01:03:17I, uh, thought you might be hungry.
01:03:22I made lasagna.
01:03:24Bella told me it was your favorite.
01:03:27Can I at least leave it by your bed?
01:03:32Okay.
01:03:39Let me see it.
01:03:49Let me see it.
01:03:51Alright, you're okay, but...
01:03:53It's just cramping because you've been in the bed so long.
01:03:56It just needs to be massaged.
01:04:00Just...
01:04:00Just fucking do it.
01:04:03Okay.
01:04:03Oh, breathe.
01:04:07Breathe into it.
01:04:09Right there.
01:04:11Breathe.
01:04:13Steady.
01:04:16Calm.
01:04:16Slow it down.
01:04:18Breathe.
01:04:19You can stop.
01:04:36Of course.
01:04:41You're good at that.
01:04:42I got quite a bit of experience.
01:04:52You know, I think it's time I told you about Dulcy.
01:05:05She was my fiancé.
01:05:07You were engaged?
01:05:12Yeah.
01:05:14We were young.
01:05:17And she was a free spirit.
01:05:19In love with the world.
01:05:22And I admired that.
01:05:24Honestly, I wanted to be just like her.
01:05:28I asked her to marry me after two weeks.
01:05:30A month after the engagement,
01:05:40we got the diagnosis.
01:05:45And six months later, I buried her.
01:05:50We never got to walk down the aisle.
01:05:53I'm so sorry, Brennan.
01:05:55So I just, I pushed down my emotions
01:05:59and drowned myself in girlfriends
01:06:03and one-night stands,
01:06:05but nothing worked.
01:06:08And I thought if I fell in love again
01:06:10that something terrible would happen.
01:06:14And I was right.
01:06:19Are you saying...
01:06:20Are you saying you love me?
01:06:23Grace?
01:06:27How could I not love you?
01:06:35Look, I know
01:06:36I don't deserve your forgiveness
01:06:39or your love.
01:06:42But please,
01:06:44let me take care of you
01:06:46like you've taken care of me for so long.
01:06:51Just until you recover.
01:06:53Then you can go.
01:07:04Fuck, Belle.
01:07:04That hurts.
01:07:05That's good.
01:07:07Dr. Hurt says that's a good sign.
01:07:09It means you're getting your feeling back.
01:07:11Hey, you know what you're going to tell him?
01:07:25I think he means what he said.
01:07:27But it took him forever to be honest
01:07:30and he used me for so long.
01:07:33I don't know.
01:07:34I don't know.
01:07:36Maybe my mom was right.
01:07:39Men aren't like in the rom-coms.
01:07:41Of course, they're not.
01:07:43Girl, those guys are made up.
01:07:46That's like a dude getting mad at you
01:07:47for not being like the girls in the ponos.
01:07:50It's not the same.
01:07:52You know, he admitted he was wrong
01:07:54and now he's trying to make it better.
01:07:56In my book, that's worth a shot.
01:08:00All right.
01:08:01Let's do the other side.
01:08:17Yeah.
01:08:18Of course.
01:08:27Doc told me you're doing really well.
01:08:29Said you stood up today.
01:08:30Yeah, for a whole two seconds.
01:08:35Still.
01:08:37That's amazing.
01:08:40Grace, I'm so proud of you.
01:08:47I guess that means that you'll be leaving soon?
01:08:51Yeah, I guess.
01:08:57Well, before you go to bed,
01:08:59want to watch a rom-com?
01:09:01Heard there's a new one on Netflix.
01:09:06No, I'm okay.
01:09:08I'm feeling a bit tired.
01:09:10You want to read a book?
01:09:12I actually went ahead and picked you up a copy of
01:09:14Pride and Prejudice just in case.
01:09:16Or I could read it to you.
01:09:19If you want.
01:09:23Actually, I already started.
01:09:26I'm not sure I understand it,
01:09:27because Darcy's kind of a dick.
01:09:30He gets better.
01:09:30He gets better.
01:09:38Got it.
01:09:39No, I'm okay.
01:09:45Want to listen to some music before you go to bed?
01:09:48Never heard of those, uh, Blood Orange Grove guys?
01:10:08I hear they're pretty good.
01:10:11I don't move so far away
01:10:14All the morning
01:10:18How much can we both take
01:10:21When life isn't at home
01:10:24I can't hear what you're saying?
01:10:29Grace
01:10:37I'm so sorry, but my family is here.
01:10:41I swear I had no idea they were coming
01:10:42But I'll tell them to leave me
01:10:44Okay
01:10:45No, you're still recovering
01:10:48And I still haven't told them
01:10:52that we're not together anymore
01:10:53But I was just going to tell them
01:10:55we broke up
01:10:57as soon as you left
01:10:58Brennan
01:11:00It's okay
01:11:01I can do this
01:11:03Well
01:11:07We wanted to come earlier
01:11:10But somebody made us wait
01:11:12until you were better
01:11:13Well
01:11:16I'm really glad that you're all here
01:11:19Oh
01:11:23Um, Grace
01:11:25And Brennan
01:11:27I'd like to apologize for the way I've behaved
01:11:31I thought it was acting in the best interest of my son
01:11:35And, uh, I see now that I was wrong
01:11:39So
01:11:40I would like to give this union
01:11:43my full blessing
01:11:44No
01:11:47Stop
01:11:49I
01:11:49Mom
01:11:51Dad, there's
01:11:52There's something I need to tell you
01:11:55Brennan, what are you doing?
01:11:58Grace
01:12:02Grace isn't my fiancé
01:12:03She was my assistant
01:12:11She
01:12:14tried to quit
01:12:16but I wouldn't let her
01:12:17In fact
01:12:19I blackmailed her into
01:12:21pretending to be my girlfriend
01:12:24So that you would keep my division open
01:12:26So that you would keep my division open
01:12:26Grace is
01:12:32A beautiful
01:12:34Lovely
01:12:36Kind and
01:12:37sweet
01:12:39woman
01:12:39And I used her
01:12:43to further my own goals
01:12:45Even now
01:12:47She's still helping me
01:12:49when I almost got her killed
01:12:51Because that's just
01:12:54who she is
01:12:55I won't
01:12:58Let you continue lying
01:13:00for me anymore
01:13:01Everything you said is true
01:13:07I'm an unserious playboy
01:13:08But this playboy wants to do better
01:13:12So if you have to close my division
01:13:16I
01:13:16I guess I understand
01:13:17Sam
01:13:22Sam
01:13:22Don't
01:13:23I didn't even have to beat you
01:13:31You did it for me
01:13:33That's enough, Kate
01:13:36Go wait in the car
01:13:37I am so proud of you
01:13:56I mean it
01:13:58It was so brave of you
01:14:00to tell the truth
01:14:01But I could tell
01:14:03you were keeping something from us
01:14:04But
01:14:06I could also see
01:14:08that you and Grace
01:14:09really care for each other
01:14:10And that it wasn't a lie
01:14:13Even when you thought it was
01:14:15Now
01:14:19I'll let you two talk this through
01:14:32I didn't
01:14:32Grace
01:14:35I
01:14:36I understand
01:14:37if you just want to go home now
01:14:38I can
01:14:40send your stuff
01:14:41to your apartment
01:14:41But
01:14:42don't worry
01:14:43I won't be coming with it
01:14:45Brennan
01:14:46I'm not leaving
01:14:50You're not
01:14:53My whole life
01:14:57I thought
01:14:59if a guy
01:15:00couldn't measure up
01:15:01to the Nora Ephron
01:15:03or Nancy Meyers heroes
01:15:04He wasn't worth it
01:15:06But
01:15:07maybe it's good
01:15:09that you're not
01:15:10this perfect guy
01:15:11Because
01:15:12I'm not a porn star
01:15:14What?
01:15:16It sounded better
01:15:20when Belle said it
01:15:21I guess
01:15:25maybe fantasies
01:15:28are fantasies for a reason
01:15:30And
01:15:31after all of this
01:15:33I realized
01:15:34I don't want a fairy tale
01:15:36I want real
01:15:39I want
01:15:41you
01:15:42I want to give us
01:15:45a chance
01:15:46And
01:15:50one day
01:15:51a long
01:15:55long time
01:15:55into the future
01:15:56maybe
01:15:58you can
01:16:00give this back
01:16:00to me
01:16:01Not today
01:16:04Clear?
