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?
00:00:55And then will the decisive parts.
00:00:59Okay.
00:01:09Here.
00:01:12Here.
00:01:15Here.
00:01:17There.
00:01:21Oh my god, fuck.
00:01:27Don't get distracted now, Mr.
00:01:29Shit, stop talking.
00:01:32Brenna Wolf.
00:01:33You had better be yawning from the back of an Uber, mister.
00:01:36What?
00:01:37Oh, fuck.
00:01:38Kate's in gay tomb party.
00:01:39You were supposed to remind me.
00:01:41I 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 fling.
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.

00:07:34Grace, are you serious?
00:07:37Okay, sorry, you said that we need Miller, you need me to call Jordan Miller?
00:07:43Grace, don't worry about that, you need to go.
00:07:45No, no, I can't, no, I can't, we've got...
00:07:48I'm telling you as your boss, you need to go.
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 he 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, fine.
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.
00:08:50I give him all of my waking hours, I get rid of his hookups, I even check the security cameras
00:08:59on my phone every day because he doesn't trust the alarm company.
00:09:03If you don't want him taking advantage of you, then don't let him.
00:09:06You deserve love, not dirty work.
00:09:10Two percent growth in this economy is impressive, above industry standard.
00:09:20Kate's division saw eight percent last month alone.
00:09:23Well, 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.
00:09:32Kate's a serious person, she's settling down, and you're still in the tabloids, with floozies.
00:09:39Ever since Dulcie...
00:09:41This has nothing to do with my personal life.
00:09:43I am more than capable of this.
00:09:45You want your division?
00:09:46Show me you're serious.
00:09:48Otherwise, I'll be making my recommendation to the board.
00:09:51I've got to go.
00:09:52Grace, what are you doing here?
00:10:05I thought you were still in bereavement.
00:10:11What is this?
00:10:12This is me.
00:10:16Quitting.
00:10:22No, absolutely not.
00:10:29Excuse me?
00:10:31Look, if you still need more time to grieve, I understand.
00:10:34This is not about my mother.
00:10:38Brennan, I need a fresh start.
00:10:41I 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...
00:10:52It doesn't matter.
00:10:54I'm done.
00:11:02No.
00:11:02You're not.
00:11:04You'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
00:11:10to...
00:11:12...have a fresh start?
00:11:15Do you want to do this the hard way, Brennan?
00:11:18Okay.
00:11:20Fine.
00:11:22I need to speak with one of your attorneys, please.
00:11:29No, any one of them's fine.
00:11:32Okay.
00:11:34What the fuck?
00:11:35What are you doing?
00:11:37Look.
00:11:39I'll allow you to quit under 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...
00:12:00I need to prove to him that I'm done fucking around.
00:12:04Are you?
00:12:07Right.
00:12:07I didn't think so.
00:12:09So ask Naomi.
00:12:11Or Miss Portugal.
00:12:13Anyone.
00:12:14There's a line of girls a mile long who'd be happy to help you.
00:12:17But Grace, you're the only one that I trust.
00:12:24Look, if you do this for me, avoid your contract.
00:12:29And then you can go and do whatever it is that you want with a glowing recommendation from myself.
00:12:33I can't do this anymore, Brennan.
00:12:38I can't keep doing your dirty work.
00:12:41I deserve better.
00:12:43I deserve to...
00:12:44Grace!
00:12:44Grace, I need you.
00:12:53It's just for the weekend.
00:12:55Right?
00:12:57Just for your parents.
00:13:02Fine.
00:13:02I'll stay for the weekend, and then I'm gone.
00:13:14What the hell?
00:13:16What was that?
00:13:18Practice.
00:13:19Practice.
00:13:19Brennan?
00:13:37Okay.
00:13:38You can do this.
00:13:39You just have to get through this weekend, and then you can forget about Brennan Wolfe for good.
00:13:47Hey, babe.
00:13:49Settling in?
00:14:02Hmm?
00:14:05Feel free to use any open space.
00:14:08Just 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.
00:14:15Are you enjoying the view?
00:14:25Wait.
00:14:32Here.
00:14:34Take this.
00:14:35What is this?
00:14:36Well, 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.
00:14:49A hundred thousand, max.
00:14:51A hundred thousand?
00:14:54No, 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?
00:15:10Most, uh, long-term couples share a bedroom.
00:15:28Absolutely not.
00:15:29Look, my parents get in tomorrow.
00:15:32We have to make this thing look real, at least.
00:15:35Okay, 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.
00:16:15I want you then.
00:16:21And I want you now.
00:16:23Then what are you waiting for?
00:16:25I want you now.
00:16:45Well, 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, I wanted you to know.
00:17:10Brennan?
00:17:15What are you doing here?
00:17:29So smooth.
00:17:30Fuck.
00:17:40Fuck.
00:17:41Fuck.
00:17:53Fuck.
00:17:54Fuck.
00:17:55Wow, you look nice.
00:18:08Thanks.
00:18:17They're here.
00:18:19Prepare yourself.
00:18:22Rennie!
00:18:23I love her.
00:18:27Oh, my goodness.
00:18:29This must be Grace.
00:18:32Rennie, she 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.
00:18:49Oh, that'll be Kate.
00:18:52Grace, she's here for dinner.
00:18:54Oh, um, I 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.
00:19:09Oh, come here, honey bunny.
00:19:10I still can't believe you finally tamed my brother.
00:19:18How'd you do it?
00:19:22I was in Soho.
00:19:24Oh.
00:19:26Don't tell me you met in a bar.
00:19:29No, of course we didn't meet at a bar.
00:19:32Do you want to tell them, baby, or should I?
00:19:37Um, you tell it, sweetheart.
00:19:41I'll tell.
00:19:42I used to work for Cross & Co.
00:19:46I know, I know, you're biggest rivals.
00:19:49Brennan and I hated each other, always stealing clients and competing.
00:19:55But I always thought he was cute.
00:19:58One day, we were pitching the same client.
00:20:01We were coming out of the building when I took a step out into the road without looking.
00:20:05I know, I know, it's a terrible habit that I have.
00:20:08A car came barreling down the road at me, and before I knew it, I felt a pair of strong arms pull me back.
00:20:14And when I opened my eyes, I found myself staring up at your son.
00:20:20How could I hate him after that?
00:20:23And as they say, the rest is history.
00:20:36And, uh, I've been saving her from traffic ever since.
00:20:40Wow.
00:20:42Oh my gosh.
00:20:43That 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.
00:20:53I tell you to get serious, and then you pick some random girl up off the street and suddenly you're, you're in love?
00:21:01Samuel.
00:21:03You've always been this way.
00:21:05Always 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.
00:21:17Brennan cares more about his company than anyone I've ever met.
00:21:20He's dedicated and conscientious, and he's...
00:21:23Sam.
00:21:28Dinner and a show.
00:21:34Well, lucky 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.
00:21:55Oh, 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, and I want to apologize.
00:22:19Grace, I love my husband, but 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.
00:22:33I do.
00:22:47Nightcap?
00:22:52I thought you were mad at me.
00:22:54No, I...
00:22:56I just thank you for standing up for me tonight.
00:23:06I don't think it really helped our cause.
00:23:10I think your dad hates me.
00:23:13But my mom loves you, and so it cancels out.
00:23:18You were really good.
00:23:20I'm sure they'll buy it.
00:23:21How are you so good at this?
00:23:28At what?
00:23:29At pretending to be in love.
00:23:35Well...
00:23:37My 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.
00:23:57Anyway, I guess what I meant was...
00:24:01I may not be good at real love,
00:24:04but...
00:24:05I'm great at rom-coms.
00:24:09Plus, I mean, some of that is true.
00:24:10I mean, you are always saving me from traffic.
00:24:12Grace, you must really miss your mom.
00:24:23I'm so sorry.
00:24:30Yeah.
00:24:30It's hard to lose the one person in the world who makes 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 everything about you.
00:24:52Not everything.
00:24:58Do you...
00:24:59Do you want to talk about it?
00:25:07I...
00:25:08I don't know if I...
00:25:12can.
00:25:14It's...
00:25:15It's okay.
00:25:16You can tell me.
00:25:17It's okay.
00:25:17You can tell me.
00:25:17Maybe...
00:25:31Maybe some other time.
00:25:36So, uh...
00:25:38If this were a rom-com,
00:25:41how would it go?
00:25:45It's very funny.
00:25:46No, I'm...
00:25:48I'm actually being serious.
00:25:54Okay.
00:25:57Well...

00:30:42We need to talk.
00:30:46I owe you an apology, son.
00:30:49It paints me greatly to see that you're not like Kate, you're not.
00:30:55Great apology so far.
00:30:58But you're still my son, and I care about you deeply.
00:31:03So 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?
00:31:32You have no idea what she's done for this company.
00:31:35For me, you have no idea what she's done for me.
00:31:37I couldn't do this without her.
00:31:39Without who?
00:31:45I'll be going.
00:31:47But 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.
00:32:04What the fuck are we going to do?
00:32:06I thought this was going to work.
00:32:08Hey.
00:32:09It's okay.
00:32:10We'll figure this out.
00:32:12You 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.
00:32:19You know, that's not a bad idea.
00:32:35What is wrong with this?
00:32:40You like it with cinnamon.
00:33:01So, about last night...
00:33:04Bye.
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 two 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.
00:33:29So, would you like to come with me?
00:33:32Oh, she'd love to.
00:33:33Oh, I don't want to intrude.
00:33:35You too, mister.
00:33:36Mom, 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, I'm really excited.
00:33:53The Western city.
00:33:54Thanks for taking me a long time.
00:33:56Grace!
00:33:57Yeah, babe.
00:33:59Every time.
00:34:00I feel so grieving.
00:34:01presente
00:34:02We know what kind of the boys?
00:34:05Heavy relief.
00:34:06Mom, do you think you could maybe talk to dad for us?
00:34:32You know, get him to ease up on Grace a bit.
00:34:39Of course darling, Grace is an absolute angel and he needs to stop harping on her.
00:34:46Look at my son, I'll protect him.
00:34:52I love it.
00:34:53What about these?
00:34:58Oh come on, yellow is bright and fun, a rose for my rose.
00:35:13Yellow roses symbolize friendship, white roses on the other hand symbolize purity and loyalty
00:35:20What a coincidence.
00:35:27Jackie, why don't we go check out the lilies?
00:35:30Yeah, let's go.
00:35:35I need to talk to you.
00:35:38What are you doing here?
00:35:40Look, I miss you silly, and I know you miss me.
00:35:44Look, didn't Grace already tell you?
00:35:46Look, we're not a thing.
00:35:49You mean your bitch ass assistant?
00:35:51You let her speak for you?
00:35:53Keep your voice down.
00:35:55Why are you defending her?
00:35:59Are you interested in her?
00:36:03No, that would be completely unprofessional.
00:36:10You know what?
00:36:11No, you need to leave.
00:36:12Now.
00:36:16Think happy and rich, happy and rich.
00:36:30Beautiful.
00:36:31All right, one more.
00:36:33Big smiles.
00:36:34Big, big smiles.
00:36:35Well, that'll never happen.
00:36:38What about a smirk?
00:36:39He can do a smirk.
00:36:47All right.
00:36:48And how about a solo picture of the brother and girlfriend?
00:36:51You two are dating?
00:37:07Just take the picture.
00:37:09Come on, Brendan.
00:37:10Give her a kiss.
00:37:12Seriously?
00:37:13A real kiss?
00:37:14Seriously?
00:37:15A real kiss?
00:37:19Seriously?
00:37:20Seriously?
00:37:21A real kiss?
00:37:22Seriously?
00:37:23A real kiss?
00:37:24Oh, no.
00:37:26Oh my God.
00:37:27Let's take care of you.
00:37:28You can make sure you're going to be a kiss.
00:37:29You have to take care of yourself.
00:37:30You can make a kiss for a kiss.
00:37:31You can make a kiss.
00:37:33You can do it.
00:37:34All right.
00:37:35I just have to take care of you and your girlfriend.
00:37:36I think that's definitely a kiss.
00:37:38I'm so appreciative.
00:37:39I want to make a kiss.
00:37:40Let's eat.
00:37:41To help you, I want to make a kiss.
00:37:42I will be impressed.
00:37:43You can make a kiss.
00:37:44I want a kiss.
00:37:45You can make a kiss.
00:37:46I want a kiss.
00:37:47Real enough?
00:38:13Brennan, what the hell was that?
00:38:14Look, Grace, we've already talked about this.
00:38:17We have to make this look real.
00:38:18I mean, if I hadn't kissed you, it would...
00:38:20No, I mean, you're running away from me like I bit you.
00:38:23Come on, you said you were gonna start pulling your weight.
00:38:25You're gonna blow this whole thing.
00:38:27Blow what whole thing?
00:38:29Oh, nothing.
00:38:31Just the photo shoot.
00:38:33Brennan got a little carried away.
00:38:35What's that?
00:38:37Family tradition.
00:38:39No, Kate.
00:38:41Consider it an early wedding present to me.
00:38:44Me and Alec versus you guys.
00:38:46Come on.
00:38:49We never got to play with Dulcie.
00:38:52Who's Dulcie?
00:38:54You haven't told her?
00:38:57Look, that's none of your business, Kate.
00:39:00Fine.
00:39:03Game on.
00:39:10Alright.
00:39:11It's easy.
00:39:12Hers means you have to answer questions about Brennan.
00:39:14His means he has to answer questions about you.
00:39:17Each correct answer gets a point.
00:39:19Whoever gets the most points wins.
00:39:21Are you ready to lose?
00:39:26How bad can it be?
00:39:28It's not like we're strangers.
00:39:29Let's start with a question for the boys.
00:39:36Alright, first question.
00:39:38What is your partner's go-to lunch?
00:39:51Okay.
00:39:52And three, two, one, flip.
00:40:01Oh, come on.
00:40:02The amount of times I picked that sandwich up for you at work.
00:40:06When I was surprising you.
00:40:09Great.
00:40:11Everybody gets a point.
00:40:13Grace, you pull.
00:40:15Another boys question.
00:40:17When did your partner lose their virginity?
00:40:34Three, two, one, flip.
00:40:39Okay, this is scary.
00:40:40You know me too well.
00:40:42That's the idea, babe.
00:40:44Good idea, babe.
00:40:50Alec, baby.
00:40:51It's you.
00:40:52Now it's about the girlies.
00:40:55What's your partner's favorite band?
00:41:08Three, two, one, flip.
00:41:14dle- Auf, gilla-
00:41:28Bren.
00:41:29You're up.
00:41:44All right, last question.
00:42:01What is your partner's favorite movie genre?
00:42:09And he gets a point, finally.
00:42:13His first one.
00:42:14That makes 16 for the lovebirds and 37 for me and Alec.
00:42:21Match made in heaven, baby.
00:42:40You remember you quit, right?
00:42:43You don't have to keep working for me.
00:42:46Yeah, well, who else is going to check the security cameras for you?
00:42:49Grace, I know you're upset, but it's just a stupid game, right?
00:43:05It doesn't matter.
00:43:06I think I'm going to turn in.
00:43:10Night.
00:43:11No, Grace.
00:43:14Look, I'm trying here.
00:43:17Okay?
00:43:18You can't just shut me out.
00:43:20Talk to me.
00:43:21There's nothing to say, Brennan.
00:43:25Look, you're right.
00:43:27None of this matters.
00:43:31After this weekend, we'll go our separate ways and back to reality.
00:43:35Speaking 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.
00:43:50I'm going to take care of this.
00:44:20I'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.
00:44:43The other day, we were playing this couples game, and he didn't know anything about me.
00:44:48I'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.
00:45:18I thought maybe he was starting to fall for me, for real.
00:45:41I mean, we kissed a couple of times, and 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.
00:46:21Real 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.
00:46:43Come 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.
00:47:02Brennan?
00:47:20Baby?
00:47:23Where'd you go?
00:47:23I'm right here.
00:47:26No, this was a mistake.
00:47:29You need to go.
00:47:32No.
00:47:32The only mistake was you letting me go.
00:47:39No.
00:47:40You need to go.
00:47:42Get out.
00:47:44The fuck, Brennan?
00:47:45Go!
00:47:46Brennan, is that you?
00:48:12Mom, what are you doing up?
00:48:16I have something for you.
00:48:18I 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.
00:48:25It's just been so long since Dulcy, and I was beginning to worry you'd never find it again.
00:48:34Mom, I...
00:48:36It's okay.
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.
00:48:45Your father proposed to me with it, and when the time comes, maybe you could propose to Grace with it.
00:49:02It just, it feels so much like last time.
00:49:11Mom, what if that means that it's all going to fall apart again?
00:49:15It'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?
00:49:41Now 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.
00:49:54It 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?
00:50:09I've taken you for granted, and these last few days have made me realize I can't live without you.
00:50:16Rather, I don't want to.
00:50:20I want to make us official.
00:50:24What do you say?
00:50:34Wait.
00:50:34If I could live anywhere in the world, where would I live?
00:50:48What?
00:50:50Who's my hero?
00:50:53I...
00:50:54What's my mother's name?
00:50:56What's my favorite childhood memory?
00:50:59What are my favorite hobbies?
00:51:02Where am I from?
00:51:03You 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.
00:51:35That you're an extremely hard worker.
00:51:42That you snore.
00:51:44I know that you make me feel safe.
00:51:51And happy.
00:51:53And good.
00:51:54And if you give me a chance, I'll learn the rest.
00:52:02Please.
00:52:04Grace.
00:52:04Oh, my God.
00:52:34Here.
00:52:37It's never stopped you before.
00:52:51Hey there, beautiful.
00:53:04You look like you've been up all night.
00:53:09And whose fault is that?
00:53:11Mom.
00:53:15Me.
00:53:19Get me?
00:53:22Hand.
00:53:26Okay.
00:53:28Hold still there, Mr. Wolf.
00:53:32This will make you look awake.
00:53:34There.
00:53:36Hmm.
00:53:43Wow.
00:53:48You are a miracle worker.
00:53:51What else is new?
00:53:52You know, when I get married, I'm not inviting any of these people.
00:54:00In fact, I'm not inviting anyone at all.
00:54:03Vegas elopement.
00:54:05Elvis impersonator.
00:54:07Reception at the casino.
00:54:09It works.
00:54:11It's very romantic.
00:54:13Yeah.
00:54:15What about you?
00:54:17I don't know.
00:54:19Oh, come on.
00:54:20Don't tell me you haven't thought about it.
00:54:22I mean, doesn't every single one of those rom-coms have some sort of cliché fairytale wedding?
00:54:28I guess I never imagined it because I've never been in love before.
00:54:35All the guys I've been with haven't...
00:54:40Something hasn't felt right.
00:54:42I guess I'd never imagined it because I've never been in love before.
00:54:48All the guys I've been with haven't...
00:54:53Something hasn't felt right.
00:54:54Something hasn't felt right.
00:54:58It's like I've been waiting for someone.
00:55:06What about you?
00:55:08What about me?
00:55:10Have you ever been in love?
00:55:16Excuse me.
00:55:17Do you mind if I borrow my son for a moment?
00:55:22Be my guest.
00:55:24Be my guest.
00:55:25Come on.
00:55:39Time to pay the piper, bro.
00:55:42What the fuck is this?
00:55:45Kate.
00:55:48The other night, I 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 she...
00:56:04Cut no more of your lies, son, and 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,
00:56:15and then you'll begin the process of transferring your division's assets over to...
00:56:21Wait!
00:56:22Look, I don't know what Kate heard, or thinks she heard,
00:56:28but what Grace and I have is real.
00:56:31I swear.
00:56:34I'll prove it.
00:56:35Excuse me, everyone.
00:56:58Excuse me, everyone.
00:57:04Excuse me, may I please just have a moment of your time?
00:57:08And will my lovely girlfriend, Grace Reynolds, please join me?
00:57:12Grace, I've known you for a very long time, honestly feels like forever.
00:57:33And recently, something's changed and I've realized just how deep my love for you runs.
00:57:39And now I'd like to formalize that love.
00:57:56My father gave my mother this ring 30 years ago.
00:58:00And 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.
00:58:09And 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.
00:58:20Yes.
00:58:33I'll marry you.
00:58:35I want to talk to you.
00:59:03Grace, 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.
00:59:20Grace, this was a mistake.
00:59:37But I put a stop to it.
00:59:38I promise, nothing happened.
00:59:41Why should I believe you?
00:59:42I mean, it's on the tape.
00:59:45Watch it.
00:59:46Grace, you've been my assistant for five years.
00:59:52You know me.
00:59:55You know everything about me.
00:59:57Not 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?
01:00:16Who is she?
01:00:17Nothing to say.
01:00:25Well, it doesn't matter.
01:00:27Because I'm done.
01:00:28I'm done.
01:00:47Grace.
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 calm down, okay?
01:01:09You're going to hurt yourself.
01:01:11You were hit by a car.
01:01:14What?
01:01:15I got a spinal injury.
01:01:18And, well, you're suffering from paralysis.
01:01:21But 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?
01:01:38Of course.
01:01:40But if you need anything, just call.
01:01:42I'll be in the next room.
01:01:47Grace, when I saw you outside on the street, I was so fucking scared.
01:01:57I thought I'd lost you.
01:01:58Lost your little prop, you mean.
01:02:02How could you say that?
01:02:03Do 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.
01:02:17I didn't think so.
01:02:18You can keep trying to trick yourself into thinking that you care about me, but this whole time you were just playing pretend.
01:02:26I'll stay here until I can walk again, but we're over.
01:02:32Grace, I...
01:02:33Okay, whatever you want.
01:03:00That's not true.
01:03:01Angela, I love you.
01:03:06Love isn't a single tender thought about me in the middle of the night, Xavier.
01:03:10I 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?
01:03:29Okay.
01:03:32Okay.
01:03:46Fuck.
01:03:48Let me see it.
01:03:49Let me see it.
01:03:51All right, 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.
01:04:05Breathe.
01:04:07Breathe into it.
01:04:09Right there.
01:04:11Breathe.
01:04:13Steady.
01:04:13Calm, slow it down.
01:04:18Breathe.
01:04:30You can stop.
01:04:34Of course.
01:04:42Good at that.
01:04:45Yeah.
01:04:47I got quite a bit of experience.
01:04:49You know, I think it's time I told you about Dulcy.
01:05:05She was my fiancé.
01:05:08You were engaged?
01:05:11Yeah.
01:05:12We were young, and she was a free spirit, in love with the world, and 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, we 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, and drowned myself in girlfriends, and one-night-stands,
01:06:05but nothing worked.
01:06:08And I thought, if I fell in love again, that 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, how could I not love you?
01:06:35Look, I know I don't deserve your forgiveness or your love.
01:06:42But please, let me take care of you like 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?
01:07:24I think he means what he said.
01:07:27But it took him forever to be honest, and he used me for so long.
01:07:33I don't know.
01:07:35Maybe my mom was right.
01:07:38Men aren't like in the rom-coms.
01:07:41Of course, they're not.
01:07:42Girl, those guys are made up.
01:07:45That's like a dude getting mad at you for not being like the girls in the porno's.
01:07:50It's not the same.
01:07:53You know, he admitted he was wrong, and now he's trying to make it better.
01:07:57In my book, that's worth a shot.
01:07:59All right.
01:08:01Let's do the other side.
01:08:17Yeah.
01:08:18Of course.
01:08:18Doc told me you're doing really well.
01:08:29You said you stood up today.
01:08:32Yeah.
01:08:33For a whole two seconds.
01:08:35Still.
01:08:37That's amazing.
01:08:40Grace, I'm so proud of you.
01:08:43I guess that means that you'll be leaving soon.
01:08:51Yeah.
01:08:52I guess.
01:08:57Well, uh, before you go to bed, want 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?
01:09:11I actually went ahead and picked you up a copy of Pride and Prejudice, just in case.
01:09:17Or I could read it to you, if you want.
01:09:23Actually, I already started.
01:09:26I'm not sure I understand it, because Darcy's kind of a dick.
01:09:33He gets better.
01:09:38Got it.
01:09:39No.
01:09:40I'm okay.
01:09:41Want to listen to some music before you go to bed?
01:09:48Never heard of those, uh, Blood Orange Grove guys?
01:10:10Here they're pretty good.
01:10:25I can't hear what you're saying.
01:10:29Grace, I'm so sorry, but my family is here.
01:10:41I swear I had no idea that we were coming, but I'll tell them to leave me.
01:10:44It's okay.
01:10:46No, you're still recovering.
01:10:50And I still haven't told them that we're not together anymore.
01:10:53But I was just going to tell them we broke up as soon as you left.
01:10:59Brennan, it's okay.
01:11:02I can do this.
01:11:03Well, we wanted to come earlier, but somebody made us wait until you were better.
01:11:16Well, I'm really glad that you're all here.
01:11:19Oh, um, Grace and Brennan, I'd like to apologize for the way I've behaved.
01:11:32I thought it was acting in the best interest of my son, and, uh, I see now that I was wrong.
01:11:39So, I would like to give this union my full blessing.
01:11:46No.
01:11:48Stop.
01:11:49I, Mom, Dad, there's, there's something I need to tell you.
01:11:57Brennan, what are you doing?
01:12:02Grace isn't my fiancée.
01:12:09She was my assistant.
01:12:14She tried to quit, but I wouldn't let her.
01:12:18In fact, I blackmailed her into pretending to be my girlfriend so that you would keep my division open.
01:12:26Grace is a beautiful, lovely, kind, and sweet woman, and I used her to further my own goals.
01:12:45Even now, she's still helping me when I almost got her killed, because that's just who she is.
01:12:57I won't let you continue lying for me anymore.
01:13:05Everything you said is true.
01:13:07I'm an unserious playboy.
01:13:08But this playboy wants to do better.
01:13:14So, if you have to close my division, I, I guess I understand.
01:13:22Sam, don't.
01:13:29I didn't even have to beat you.
01:13:32You did it for me.
01:13:35That's enough, Kate.
01:13:37Go wait in the car.
01:13:38I am so proud of you.
01:13:57I mean it.
01:13:58It was so brave of you to tell the truth.
01:14:01But I could tell you were keeping something from us.
01:14:04But I could also see that you and Grace really care for each other.
01:14:12And that it wasn't a lie.
01:14:14Even when you thought it was.
01:14:18Now, I'll let you two talk this through.
01:14:21Brennan.
01:14:35Grace, I understand if you just want to go home now.
01:14:39I can send your stuff to your apartment.
01:14:42But don't worry, I won't be coming with it.
01:14:46Brennan.
01:14:46I'm not leaving.
01:14:52You're not.
01:14:56My whole life, I thought if a guy couldn't measure up to the Nora Ephron or Nancy Meyers heroes,
01:15:05he wasn't worth it.
01:15:06But maybe it's good that you're not this perfect guy.
01:15:12Because I'm not a porn star.
01:15:15What?
01:15:16It sounded better when Belle said it.
01:15:24I guess maybe fantasies are fantasies for a reason.
01:15:31And after all of this, I realized I don't want a fairy tale.
01:15:36I want real.
01:15:40I want you.
01:15:43I want to give us a chance.
01:15:49And one day,
01:15:52a long, long time into the future,
01:15:57maybe you can give this back to me.
01:16:01Not today.
01:16:06Clear?
01:16:20Crystal.
01:16:20I can't believe you told your parents everything.
01:16:35Sam is definitely going to shut down your division now.
01:16:40What are you going to do?
01:16:45I think I have an idea.
01:16:50I think I have an idea.
01:16:51I think I have an idea.
01:16:52I think I have an idea.
01:16:53I think I have an idea.
01:16:54I think I have an idea.
01:16:55I think I have an idea.
01:16:56I think I have an idea.
01:16:57I think I have an idea.
01:16:58I think I have an idea.
01:16:59I think I have an idea.
01:17:00I think I have an idea.
01:17:01I think I have an idea.
01:17:02I think I have an idea.
01:17:03I think I have an idea.
01:17:04I think I have an idea.
01:17:05I think I have an idea.
01:17:06I think I have an idea.
01:17:07I think I have an idea.
01:17:08I think I have an idea.
01:17:09I think I have an idea.
01:17:10I think I have an idea.
01:17:11I think I have an idea.
01:17:12I think I have an idea.
01:17:13I think I have an idea.
