00:00:00Working under this much stress for a huge company, it's all for you mom.

00:00:08You nervous about your first day?

00:00:11A little bit, but thank you for getting me the job.

00:00:14Of course.

00:00:15It's been crazy. The CEO, Sebastian Armstrong, is working a huge merger.

00:00:20He could be a two-time billionaire by the end of this deal.

00:00:23But isn't he already the richest man in the world?

00:00:25The youngest. Richest man in the world.

00:00:30I wonder if he remembers me from college.

00:00:45You're going to have to sacrifice a lot of late nights and you're going to make enemies on your way to the top.

00:01:00The perfume was intoxicating.

00:01:08Sorry, um, what was I saying?

00:01:10Oh my god, what is that wretched smell?

00:01:16Oh, maybe that's my perfume.

00:01:18That's it. It's god-awful.

00:01:21Clarice go downstairs, sweetie.

00:01:23Uh, actually, I am Mr. Armstrong's new receptionist.

00:01:26I used to have that job.

00:01:28Back then they used to hire class.

00:01:30I guess now they're willing to hire anyone off the street.

00:01:32Sorry to spit the truth, bitch, but we don't last a minute here.

00:01:43Oops!

00:01:44You should probably clean that up.

00:01:45Or I'll just tell them that you did it.

00:01:47Okay, uh, my job is to answer phone calls and keep Mr. Sebastian's schedule.

00:01:57It's good health insurance.

00:01:59It'll pay for my mom's medical bills.

00:02:03Get out of my way, loser.

00:02:08My shirt!

00:02:10I told you, wouldn't last a day here.

00:02:17Who is that?

00:02:19That is Sebastian's wife.

00:02:22His wife?!

00:02:24Be careful around her.

00:02:26She's a viper.

00:02:27Everyone knows she's only with him for his money.

00:02:29Sebastian Armstrong.

00:02:31We're going out tonight.

00:02:33Ruby, I have already told you that I want a divorce.

00:02:42And you need to sign these papers.

00:02:45Hmm.

00:02:54Honey, we're so good together.

00:02:59Our love burns white hot.

00:03:01Remember when we used to make love in the office executive shower?

00:03:04Mm.

00:03:05Ruby, we are over.

00:03:08Because you have made it abundantly clear

00:03:11that all you've ever been after is my money.

00:03:14Especially after I caught you stealing.

00:03:16Now, I have a business meeting today with Robert Sanchez,

00:03:19and it is the largest business deal that I have ever had.

00:03:22Mm.

00:03:23Well, nobody denies Ruby Cromwell.

00:03:29Get up.

00:03:30Let me get out.

00:03:31Okay?

00:03:32I'm all sweaty for my workout.

00:03:33I need to take a shower, so go.

00:03:34Why don't I join?

00:03:35I mean, I've seen your six-pack abs before.

00:03:42You need to go.

00:03:43Now.

00:03:45Fine.

00:03:46Hey, thrift shop girl.

00:03:59Sebastian needs to see you in his office.

00:04:01Head to the door that says executive.

00:04:04Yeah, of course, man.

00:04:05Ruby, I thought I told you to-

00:04:12I am so sorry.

00:04:15So sorry.

00:04:25I'm so sorry, Mr. Sebastian.

00:04:27Armstrong.

00:04:28Mr. Armstrong.

00:04:29It's okay.

00:04:32Don't worry about it.

00:04:33I can't believe I just saw Mrs. Sebastian's arm strong.

00:04:50I'm so embarrassed.

00:04:51Who am I fooling?

00:04:52I don't belong here.

00:04:53I'm eating a panini I made with a panini maker from a thrift store.

00:05:06The terms of this merger are favorable to both sides.

00:05:14Which means we're not even close to getting a deal done.

00:05:16Where should I set these down?

00:05:18I don't care.

00:05:19Anywhere.

00:05:25Oh, my God.

00:05:27I am so sorry.

00:05:29Get out of here.

00:05:30You're fired.

00:05:31Clear out your desk.

00:05:32You can't talk to your employee like that.

00:05:36I don't tell you how to run your company.

00:05:38She could sue you for wrongful termination.

00:05:41We can't do a merger with a company like that.

00:05:44Come to your senses.

00:05:47I'm sorry.

00:05:48Have we met before?

00:05:49Not funny.

00:05:50Look, why don't we start over?

00:05:52I'm Sebastian Armstrong.

00:05:53Would you like a job at my multi-billion dollar company?

00:05:56I don't think so.

00:05:58What?

00:05:59Oh, well, I don't want to work for a boss that's an asshole.

00:06:03He doesn't even know how to apologize.

00:06:05Oh, no one's ever talked to me that way.

00:06:10That takes guts.

00:06:12And I like that.

00:06:14We need people like you at this company that stand up for themselves.

00:06:18Well, I'm sorry if I'm overly honest.

00:06:21I'm just tired of eating my grilled cheese panini in the bathroom.

00:06:24Wow, I haven't laughed like that in a long time.

00:06:29I needed that.

00:06:30I'm sorry that I snapped like that in the office.

00:06:33This merger's just been beyond stressful.

00:06:37Will you accept my humblest apologies?

00:06:40Of course.

00:06:45And I'm sorry for spilling coffee on your very expensive shirt.

00:06:56Looks like we're both in need of some new digs.

00:06:59Tell you what, why don't you go down to Latour Boutique and get yourself a new outfit?

00:07:03I can't afford Latour Boutique.

00:07:06You can with this.

00:07:08No, I can't take that.

00:07:12I insist.

00:07:13Go down, get yourself a new outfit, and come back tomorrow ready to work.

00:07:27Anyway, that was just the worst date.

00:07:29Did you know, when I was in college, Sebastian came to my school and gave a young entrepreneur lecture?

00:07:41Mm-hmm.

00:07:42He was so charming.

00:07:44And knowledgeable.

00:07:46Uh-oh.

00:07:47Uh-oh?

00:07:48Yeah, I think you might be in love.

00:07:50Whatever.

00:07:55Seriously, you should ride his baloney pony.

00:07:59Might land you that big promotion.

00:08:00I am not the ruthless type.

00:08:03Plus, I don't think he'd be into it.

00:08:05Man at his level's always into that.

00:08:07I think he's different.

00:08:09Men are all the same.

00:08:11Oh, coming from someone who swipes right on everyone.

00:08:14Mm-hmm.

00:08:15All right, all right.

00:08:16Hello?

00:08:24What do you mean?

00:08:27Okay.

00:08:28I'll be there.

00:08:31Everything okay?

00:08:33No.

00:08:34My mom has cancer.

00:08:37I'm so sorry.

00:08:40She's doing better and has one treatment to go, but it is expensive.

00:08:47That's why I really need to keep this job.

00:08:51Of course.

00:08:58Hi!

00:08:59How dare you serve me with divorce papers in public?

00:09:01You embarrass me in front of all the ladies at the salon.

00:09:05Oh, God.

00:09:07I thought we were gonna work this out.

00:09:09We're not gonna work this out.

00:09:10Just sign the papers.

00:09:11No!

00:09:12I want to go over every single line of this.

00:09:15My mother gave us that chandelier in the rumpus room.

00:09:17It's mine.

00:09:19That's fine.

00:09:20What else?

00:09:22There's a lot else.

00:09:24God.

00:09:26Vanessa, can you please move my 12 o'clock appointment to the end of the day?

00:09:30And also, can you bring us some lunch?

00:09:33I have a question.

00:09:34I mean, Mr. Sebastian.

00:09:36I mean, Mr. Armstrong.

00:09:38Hmm.

00:09:40Getting real chummy with the help.

00:09:45She works for me.

00:09:47Oh, does she?

00:09:49Remember when these used to work for you?

00:09:54Can we just keep this professional, please?

00:09:56I used to be your receptionist.

00:09:57Don't think this two-bit whore can come in and replace me.

00:10:00I'm class elegant.

00:10:01She's homeless.

00:10:03Shelter.

00:10:04Here you are, sir.

00:10:05Thank you, Vanessa.

00:10:09Thank you, receptionist girl.

00:10:10That'll be all.

00:10:15Oopsies.

00:10:16Can you get that?

00:10:19Sure.

00:10:20Oh, my gosh.

00:10:31I'm sorry.

00:10:32I'm such a klutz.

00:10:38Sit down.

00:10:40We are gonna go over every single end of this.

00:10:41And you know what?

00:10:42We're actually gonna add some clauses there.

00:10:44I'd like a house in the Hamptons.

00:10:45I want a new cappuccino machine.

00:10:47I want a cashmere sweater.

00:10:48We are going in on this.

00:10:50Or I'm not signing.

00:10:52Okay?

00:10:53Have her bring a new plate in.

00:10:59Hey, I...

00:11:00I'm sorry, Ego.

00:11:03I just wanted to apologize for Ruby's clumsiness.

00:11:07You know, divorces can be hard.

00:11:09I needed to get the stride cleaned anyway.

00:11:11Oh, you should put that on the company account.

00:11:13And I want to let you know that you're doing a really good job here.

00:11:16Thank you, Mr. Armstrong.

00:11:18Yeah, of course.

00:11:22I think I know where I know you from.

00:11:26You do?

00:11:27Yes, Va Tech.

00:11:28I gave a lecture there a couple years ago.

00:11:30I can't believe you remember that.

00:11:32Yeah.

00:11:33Chantelle perfume number five.

00:11:35Is that it?

00:11:37You know, I thought about finding you after that lecture

00:11:39and going to the dorms and banging on some doors?

00:11:43Well, I wish you did.

00:11:44Mm-hmm.

00:11:45But it might have been frowned upon.

00:11:48Being a lecturer.

00:11:50Maybe some sort of power imbalance.

00:11:53Yeah, I don't think the university would have appreciated

00:11:56me taking advantage of my position.

00:11:59Interesting.

00:12:00I always thought you took risks.

00:12:08Hey, boss.

00:12:10Congrats on the merger.

00:12:12Yeah, I couldn't have done it with everybody in this room.

00:12:14But, uh, it's not over yet.

00:12:16But we'll get there soon.

00:12:208 p.m. tonight.

00:12:32He wants me to meet him at the fanciest hotel in the city?

00:13:19Well, that dress fits you perfectly.

00:13:32How did you know my size?

00:13:34My grandfather used to work at a carnival.

00:13:36I could guess your weight, too.

00:13:38But I'd rather just buy a dress for you.

00:13:44This room must have cost a fortune.

00:13:46Yeah, they tend to comp the room when you own the hotel.

00:13:56I'm used to my wine coming in a box.

00:14:00You are one of a kind and a supporter.

00:14:03No one has ever said that to me, Sebastian Armstrong.

00:14:16You never worth it?

00:14:33I won't do that I can't believe.

00:14:35I don't tell them.

00:14:36I don't know.

00:15:06I don't know.

00:15:36I hope you're not too good for boxed wine, though.

00:15:46Oh, I am never too good for boxed wine.

00:15:50Oh, gosh.

00:15:52This has been such a whirlwind.

00:15:54I am falling so hard.

00:15:57Just be careful, honey.

00:15:58I know.

00:16:02I'm trying to take it slow.

00:16:05I mean, that merger is heating up.

00:16:07All the stockholders in the company have their eye on him right now.

00:16:09They might be looking to make it a hostile takeover.

00:16:13You're the only person I've told.

00:16:14We both decided to be discreet.

00:16:16The last thing he needs is media attention.

00:16:19It's also the last thing you need with your mom.

00:16:21How is Teresa doing?

00:16:22Better.

00:16:23They say she has one more treatment, and hopefully she'll be in remission.

00:16:26That's great news.

00:16:29I really need to keep this job.

00:16:30Are you just going to stand there, or are we going to get to work?

00:16:39Do you have any idea what you're doing?

00:16:41We're getting so close to finalizing this merger.

00:16:44Of course I know what I'm doing.

00:16:45Are you just fine with me?

00:17:07Not me.

00:17:09But somebody is.

00:17:10Those came across my desk earlier today, and I had to pay a pretty good penny to keep them out of the press.

00:17:18I'm not a married man.

00:17:20I can date somebody.

00:17:21Your divorce with Ruby isn't final.

00:17:23She won't sign the papers, Robert.

00:17:25Any way you cut it, Sebastian, it can be a problem.

00:17:29The board is wary of getting into business with another billionaire playboy.

00:17:33They like stability, especially after that one in Gotham went rogue.

00:17:38Maybe it would help to be a happily married man.

00:17:43I don't think that exists.

00:17:46I got news for you, pal.

00:17:48It does.

00:17:4935 years.

00:17:56I wish I could tell the world how I feel about her.

00:18:00But the world finding out about us during my divorce would hurt the merger.

00:18:04We are playing with fire, but I care about him so much.

00:18:11I just can't jeopardize anything.

00:18:22Well, well, well.

00:18:24What do we have here?

00:18:27Excuse me?

00:18:28I'm a buddy.

00:18:29Bruno, my buddy.

00:18:30Hi, I'm Vanessa, Mr. Armstrong's new assistant.

00:18:35We have so much in common.

00:18:36I'm also new at Armstrong Enterprises.

00:18:38I'm here to dictate the merger.

00:18:40But why talk about work while at work when we can talk about play while we play?

00:18:45What?

00:18:46Happy hour.

00:18:47Teenies on me.

00:18:49Teenies?

00:18:50Martinies.

00:18:51Teenies to bikinis.

00:18:52Oh, that's funny.

00:18:56Yeah.

00:18:57What'd you say we get out of this wet clothes and into a dry martini?

00:19:04Are all your pickup lines martini-based?

00:19:08Yeah.

00:19:10Uh.

00:19:12We need to talk.

00:19:15Ruby, I didn't see you on my schedule.

00:19:18Oh, okay.

00:19:18I'm pretty sure I don't need to be on your schedule because I'm your wife.

00:19:21Ex-wife.

00:19:24What do you need?

00:19:24What's the problem?

00:19:26I'm still unhappy with the divorce terms.

00:19:29How can you be unhappy?

00:19:30It's fair.

00:19:31I paid you more than half.

00:19:33I still want you.

00:19:36No baby voice, Ruby.

00:19:38Okay, we're through.

00:19:40Fine.

00:19:41Clearly, you don't want me anymore.

00:19:43But I do know that you want me to sign before the merger.

00:19:45The merger has nothing to do with you.

00:19:48What if I wanted to have something to do with me?

00:19:50You are entitled to none of that.

00:19:52We'll see about that.

00:19:55You need to get out of here before I call security.

00:19:57You wouldn't dare.

00:19:58You need to get off.

00:20:04Come on.

00:20:05Out the door.

00:20:14Hey there.

00:20:15Hey, sorry.

00:20:16I'm wiped.

00:20:18I know that you overheard Ruby yelling at me.

00:20:22It's none of my business.

00:20:23It's over between her and I.

00:20:25She does not think so.

00:20:29So, would you like to have dinner with me?

00:20:32I'm not really hungry.

00:20:36You sure about that?

00:20:37I don't think it's a good idea.

00:20:42Look, I know that we've both been under a lot of stress.

00:20:45We can just keep it simple.

00:20:47Have some good food.

00:20:48Take our mind off things.

00:20:50No pressure.

00:20:51He's right.

00:20:52We're both under a lot of stress.

00:20:53But I can't put my stress on him.

00:20:56So, dinner?

00:20:57Keep it simple.

00:20:58Keep it simple.

00:20:59This is simple.

00:21:13You're worth it.

00:21:18I'm worried about the merger.

00:21:23You too.

00:21:24I'm not worried about you closing it.

00:21:26I'm worried about us.

00:21:28Look, it's almost a done deal.

00:21:30All eyes are on you.

00:21:32With this and your divorce, don't you worry that this will make the company think you're unfit?

00:21:37Unfit for what?

00:21:38The merger is just money.

00:21:40And I have money.

00:21:41But I don't have luck.

00:21:45And I want to be with you.

00:21:49I don't know.

00:21:52Why are you so hesitant?

00:21:54I don't know if I can tell him.

00:21:55I don't know.

00:21:58What's going on?

00:21:59My mom is...

00:22:03Cancer.

00:22:04She has cancer.

00:22:06And I just need to focus on work right now because her bills are mounting up.

00:22:10You know I can take care of that for you.

00:22:12No, Sebastian.

00:22:13That's not why I'm telling you.

00:22:15I don't want your charity.

00:22:16My mom always taught me to earn everything I get.

00:22:18Well, she sounds like a strong woman.

00:22:25She's the strongest woman I know.

00:22:27I admire you.

00:22:28I don't need to be admired.

00:22:30I need to be understood.

00:22:33Understood.

00:22:34I think we should slow down a little.

00:22:39What are you talking about?

00:22:41Maybe just be friends.

00:22:44I don't think I could just be friends with you.

00:22:47I don't think I can be anything more.

00:22:48I see you.

00:23:03What?

00:23:05I see you.

00:23:06You're a rising star of this company.

00:23:08I am just trying to work here.

00:23:10I don't need any distractions.

00:23:12Let me guess.

00:23:13Your job's a joke.

00:23:14You're broke.

00:23:15Your love life's the O.A.

00:23:16It's like you're always stuck in second gear.

00:23:20It hasn't been your day, your week, your month, or even your year.

00:23:28No.

00:23:31Babe, come on.

00:23:35Release the attention.

00:23:41Maybe this is for the better.

00:23:43I have to get Sebastian to end this.

00:23:45This is the only way.

00:23:47Uh, yeah.

00:23:50That's the spot.

00:23:51That's what I'm talking about, girl.

00:24:03Oh.

00:24:04Sorry, Mr. Sebastian.

00:24:06Hey, Sebastian.

00:24:07Don't worry.

00:24:08We're off the clock.

00:24:09Yeah.

00:24:09This is hot.

00:24:16Don't ever touch me again.

00:24:23Playing hard again?

00:24:25I like that.

00:24:27Bruno likey.

00:24:31You big stud.

00:24:32You got this.

00:24:33She's yours.

00:24:34Two can play this game.

00:24:37I'll be there for you.

00:24:45Hey.

00:24:46I'm sorry about...

00:24:47There's nothing to be sorry about.

00:24:49We're both adults.

00:24:50You don't owe me anything.

00:24:52He was just being...

00:24:54I don't care about him.

00:24:56I just...

00:24:57I don't know.

00:24:58I thought that you were different.

00:24:59I...

00:25:00I have to let this happen.

00:25:02You know what?

00:25:03I think you're right.

00:25:04I think that we should just be friends.

00:25:08No.

00:25:10More like work colleagues.

00:25:11Because I had hoped that we were going to build something together.

00:25:18But my life, my business wasn't built off hope.

00:25:21It was built off hard work.

00:25:23Sebastian.

00:25:23No, and I was blinded by what I thought was such an amazing person.

00:25:29But the reality is you're just like everyone else.

00:25:34You're just after my money.

00:25:37Sebastian, I don't...

00:25:38How about we finish when we start?

00:25:47Get off.

00:25:47What about all that break room tower?

00:25:49I thought I told you never touch me again.

00:25:52Let's pretend I didn't hear that.

00:25:54Get off me, Bruno.

00:25:55I'm not interested.

00:25:57Don't be that interested.

00:25:59You're the greatest.

00:26:06Tell me everything.

00:26:14It was terrible what I did, but this merger was so important to Sebastian.

00:26:19I couldn't risk losing it for him.

00:26:21You were never going to lose it for him.

00:26:23I can't be a distraction to him.

00:26:25Maybe he needs a distraction.

00:26:26What did you do?

00:26:30I almost kissed Bruno.

00:26:33The aggressive guy?

00:26:35He only did it to make Sebastian forget about me so he could think about the merger.

00:26:40I hope you know what you're doing.

00:26:43I wish we had met in college.

00:26:47Things would be so different.

00:26:55Kate, I don't know how to fix this.

00:26:57Girl, you can't fix being in love.

00:27:03What do you think Sebastian's doing right now?

00:27:05What is wrong with you?

00:27:13I mean, you have everything.

00:27:15And even after this merger, you'll have even more.

00:27:18You can have any woman you desire.

00:27:23Boy, don't ask that.

00:27:24I'm humble.

00:27:25You'd give it all up and be with her, wouldn't you?

00:27:35Well, if you love her, then you should just go to her.

00:27:42What do you have to drink in this dump?

00:27:44Ruby.

00:27:45What are you doing here?

00:27:46Come in.

00:27:47I'm sorry.

00:27:48I was a cranky bitch earlier.

00:27:50What are you doing here?

00:27:51Well, things got a little heated earlier.

00:27:53And I thought, I should come make amends.

00:27:58Is it me?

00:28:01Is it hot in here?

00:28:23I've missed you.

00:28:28We were so good together.

00:28:29Let me take you to the bedroom.

00:28:51No, no, no.

00:28:52Hey, I'm sorry.

00:28:52I can't do this.

00:28:54Look, we had something in the past, Ruby.

00:29:00Yeah, just put this on.

00:29:03Is this about that bitch?

00:29:06Don't call her that.

00:29:09You'll regret this, Sebastian Armstrong?

00:29:10Hey, hey, get off of me.

00:29:31Hey, hey, hey, are you OK?

00:29:33What is that?

00:29:41You must have dropped it.

00:29:46My God, somebody's been spying on us.

00:29:48Thanks for the statement, ma'am.

00:29:58We'll keep an eye out for the perp.

00:30:00In the meantime, try to get some rest.

00:30:03Good night.

00:30:10Yeah, of course.

00:30:13How did you know where I lived?

00:30:14I looked your address up at work.

00:30:19I was coming over to apologize.

00:30:21About what?

00:30:23Look, I was a jerk earlier, and I overreacted.

00:30:27It's OK.

00:30:28Vanessa.

00:30:31People in my position have a very hard time with dating.

00:30:34Everyone only seems to want one thing from me,

00:30:37and that's why I have to be protective.

00:30:39I've been blinded by love before.

00:30:41Ruby?

00:30:43That obvious, huh?

00:30:43Yeah, she's, um...

00:30:45Bitch?

00:30:47Yeah.

00:30:48And she also could put this hold on people.

00:30:51And I didn't realize it till much later that she's just a gold digger.

00:30:56And she never loved me.

00:30:57She only loved my bank account.

00:30:59And that's why I tend to be defensive.

00:31:03Sebastian, maybe it's just not the right time for us.

00:31:07You have this merger.

00:31:08I don't want you to lose sight of it.

00:31:09And you have your mother.

00:31:15How's she doing?

00:31:17She has her last treatment coming up, so we're hopeful.

00:31:21Yeah.

00:31:22She knows that I put off my career goals to take care of her.

00:31:27And she carries that guilt.

00:31:31The other day, she said that sometimes she wished she had died.

00:31:37So I could live.

00:31:40She's a strong woman, just like you.

00:31:42Look, I appreciate your generosity.

00:31:45But as of now, all I'm asking is that we remain boss and secretary.

00:31:53Deal?

00:31:57Deal.

00:32:00Under one condition.

00:32:02What is it?

00:32:02You replace this.

00:32:09Sure.

00:32:10You still have my black Amex card?

00:32:12I never used it.

00:32:14Okay.

00:32:14Well, you need to go down to La Tour Boutique and get yourself another cocktail dress.

00:32:19I'm not going to do that.

00:32:23Well, you need to because I need you to attend a dinner with me.

00:32:27No dates.

00:32:29No, no, it's not a date.

00:32:30Personal assistant.

00:32:31Strictly business.

00:32:32You feed me the names of people that I should know.

00:32:36It's boring, but the food is good.

00:32:39So what do you say?

00:32:41Deal?

00:32:42That's my one condition.

00:32:43You really are a good negotiator.

00:32:50You should probably go.

00:32:54Okay.

00:33:02Can I help you?

00:33:05Yes.

00:33:06Yes.

00:33:06I am looking for a dress.

00:33:08Looks like you need a whole new wardrobe.

00:33:10Oh.

00:33:12Probably.

00:33:13Sorry.

00:33:14We don't have anything in the hobo casual collection.

00:33:17Oh, I know.

00:33:18I know.

00:33:18I don't usually shop at places like this.

00:33:21But I actually walk by here all the time and stare at that dress in the window.

00:33:26Not to cut you off.

00:33:27I'm pretty busy here.

00:33:28And we only serve to high-end clients.

00:33:33Okay.

00:33:36Maybe I'm in the wrong store.

00:33:38Maybe you are.

00:33:38I should probably go.

00:33:41You should.

00:33:45Now, wait just a minute.

00:33:46What is going on here?

00:33:47I don't belong here.

00:33:48Of course you do.

00:33:49Mr. Sebastian Armstrong, welcome.

00:33:51You weren't very welcoming to my friend here.

00:33:53I didn't know she was...

00:33:54That shouldn't matter.

00:33:55You don't have to do this.

00:33:57Yes, I do.

00:33:58You should treat everyone who walks through that door with respect.

00:34:01I'm so sorry, Mr. Armstrong.

00:34:04I'm really sorry.

00:34:05My boyfriend just dumped me and I'm in a terrible mood.

00:34:08It's okay.

00:34:09I actually have those same sneakers that you're wearing.

00:34:12I love them.

00:34:13Also, that dress in the window, I love it too.

00:34:16But I'm jealous because I know it'll look way better on you.

00:34:19Plus, I have at least food.

00:34:20I'm oversharing.

00:34:22Just wrap up the dress.

00:34:23We have a big event to attend to tonight.

00:34:38Sorry, I know that this is a lot.

00:34:46I don't want to let you down.

00:34:49You won't.

00:34:49Just stick with me.

00:34:50I have some cocktail hour negotiating.

00:34:57Oh, God.

00:34:58I didn't realize they let trash in here.

00:35:01Ruby, this isn't the time or the place.

00:35:03Sebastian, you haven't answered any of my phone calls.

00:35:05Our divorce terms are unacceptable.

00:35:07I'm sorry, Mr. Cromwell, that Sebastian is about to give you a speech.

00:35:10I'm sorry.

00:35:11Who the fuck are you?

00:35:13This is a conversation between my husband and I.

00:35:16You mean your ex-husband.

00:35:18Oh, no, I'm so sorry.

00:35:28I'm such a klutz.

00:35:34And now, ladies and gentlemen, may we present Mr. Sebastian Armstrong.

00:35:44I think it's about time we got legal involved to talk about these terms and details.

00:35:48Before it goes to legal, should I have my guys look at it?

00:35:51Your guys.

00:35:53Just keep taking notes.

00:35:55You're new here, so maybe you can learn a thing or two about negotiating.

00:35:58Pretty sure I could teach you a thing or two.

00:36:06Thank you, Vanessa.

00:36:08Let me know if you need anything else.

00:36:10I need some of that.

00:36:13Damn, she's hot.

00:36:15Nothing wrong with dipping the pen in the company.

00:36:18Am I right, boys?

00:36:20I didn't know that you two were an item.

00:36:22There's a lot you don't know about me, Sebby.

00:36:25It's Mr. Armstrong.

00:36:27Oh, so formal.

00:36:29This company needed a little joke like me.

00:36:32Guys, this isn't a pissing contest.

00:36:34Yeah, I know.

00:36:36Because I already got the prize.

00:36:39So, you are dating.

00:36:41I mean, if you call getting freaky in a two-star hotel dating.

00:36:44Come on, keep it classy.

00:36:47You won't be doing anything classy tonight.

00:36:50Respect the workplace.

00:36:52And you chill.

00:36:54You ain't got money like us.

00:36:56Cheap sluts like Vanessa are a dime a dozen.

00:37:00Oh!

00:37:02Stop.

00:37:03Stop.

00:37:05You're done.

00:37:06Get out of here.

00:37:07Pack your shirt up.

00:37:08We don't do sexual harassment at this company.

00:37:11Okay, big boss man.

00:37:13I'll leave.

00:37:14But you're going to regret this.

00:37:16You have no idea who I am and what I'm capable of.

00:37:19Just leave, son.

00:37:21It's over.

00:37:21Don't worry, Sebastian.

00:37:27I got your back.

00:37:28Back in my day, guys like him would have gotten it much worse.

00:37:33This won't affect our negotiations at all.

00:37:35It's good to be rid of the bad energy in the room.

00:37:43Oh, my God.

00:37:51Vanessa, what's wrong?

00:37:53Someone vandalized my car.

00:37:54What?

00:37:55Are you okay?

00:38:02Stop.

00:38:02There.

00:38:09I can't see their faces.

00:38:10They're wearing masks.

00:38:12The timestamp says it's from this afternoon, so it can't be...

00:38:15Bruno.

00:38:18He was in my office at that time.

00:38:20I'll send this to the authorities.

00:38:23I'm scared.

00:38:28I'll protect you.

00:38:34Oh, there's my sweet daughter.

00:38:36Hi, Doc.

00:38:37How's my mom doing?

00:38:38Hi, Vanessa.

00:38:40Your mother is doing exceptionally well.

00:38:42We couldn't be happier with her results.

00:38:45And as you know, the entire staff loves her.

00:38:48Just trying to make the best of it.

00:38:49Hopefully, this will be her last treatment and send her cancer into remission.

00:38:54The only sad thing is, Miss Porter won't be brightening up our oncology ward anymore.

00:38:58Stop.

00:39:00I'll leave you, too.

00:39:01How are you, honey?

00:39:06I'm good.

00:39:07Work's really busy.

00:39:09Well, you always manage to keep a handle on everything.

00:39:12I just can't wait to get out of here.

00:39:14Food sucks.

00:39:17Are you okay?

00:39:17You seem a bit distracted.

00:39:18I have to tell you something, Mom.

00:39:21I don't want you to worry.

00:39:23Well, I'm going to worry whether you tell me or not.

00:39:26I think I have a stalker.

00:39:28What?

00:39:29Someone vandalized my car.

00:39:30They wrote a bad word in Magic Marker.

00:39:34Well, maybe some vinegar or something wouldn't help get me off.

00:39:37I know, Mom.

00:39:38I think it was somehow connected to this guy at work.

00:39:41This guy at work, Bruno Lombardi.

00:39:43He has been all over me and it's starting to worry me out.

00:39:46You said Bruno Lombardi?

00:39:48John Lombardi's son?

00:39:50John Lombardi runs a crime family.

00:39:56Yes.

00:39:57And Bruno is quote-unquote heir to that throne.

00:40:02A crime family?

00:40:04Yeah.

00:40:04Your uncle had some run-in with them years ago.

00:40:07They're thugs.

00:40:08And if Bruno is anything like his father,

00:40:10you want to be swiping left, like the kids say.

00:40:13I think he got fired today.

00:40:14What if he blames me for everything?

00:40:16Kids today.

00:40:17They always want to blame somebody else for their...

00:40:19They're issues.

00:40:20They can't take responsibility.

00:40:22They're not my baby girl.

00:40:26The Lombardi crime family accused of racketeering drugs.

00:40:30Human trafficking?

00:40:32Apparently, he's still running the crime family from prison.

00:40:36And he's grooming Bruno to take over.

00:40:39They've got some troubles going on.

00:40:41So, honey, please be careful.

00:40:43I have to warn Sebastian.

00:40:45I have to go, Mom.

00:40:47I love you.

00:40:49You need a replacement for the whore-mobile.

00:41:09You know I can accept this.

00:41:11You have to.

00:41:12I really can't.

00:41:14Then why not?

00:41:14Sebastian, I'm worried.

00:41:20I found out that Bruno has ties to the mafia.

00:41:23No, our HR fully vetted him.

00:41:26I'm sure there's ways of skirting that.

00:41:28Word is he's being groomed to become head of the crime family.

00:41:31Then why would he want a job here?

00:41:33I don't know.

00:41:34He could be dangerous.

00:41:35Look, you don't need to worry about that anymore.

00:41:38Because I fired him.

00:41:39That's why I'm worried.

00:41:42Look, I have the best security that money can buy.

00:41:46We don't need to be intimidated by people like Bruno.

00:41:50And we need to focus on the good that we can do.

00:41:52And speaking of, I have a charity event that I'd like you to help me out with tonight.

00:41:59Charity?

00:41:59Yes, for cancer research.

00:42:00Oh.

00:42:01I would love to.

00:42:03Hmm?

00:42:03But I don't know.

00:42:05Look, somebody just dropped out last minute.

00:42:07You'd be doing me a big, big favor.

00:42:09It's at the Biltmore Ballroom, 6 p.m. tonight.

00:42:15One condition.

00:42:17Okay.

00:42:18What?

00:42:21You take the car back.

00:42:25Fine.

00:42:28See you tonight.

00:42:31Damn.

00:42:34He is a good negotiator.

00:42:47You must be the new model.

00:42:50You're on stage in five.

00:42:52On stage?

00:42:53What is this?

00:42:54This is a charity auction.

00:42:56People are going to bid on you for dates.

00:42:58No, no, no, no.

00:42:59I can't do this.

00:43:00Are you kidding?

00:43:01This is going to be fun.

00:43:02And it's for a good cause, girl.

00:43:04You wouldn't mind a man bidding on me for a change.

00:43:06Yeah.

00:43:10Going what?

00:43:11Going twice.

00:43:12And she is sold to that gentleman over there for $500,000 for a special date.

00:43:18And this is a new charity record for us.

00:43:21Thank you for your generosity, sir.

00:43:25Oh.

00:43:27What you lucky here.

00:43:29I guess they let anyone into these charity events, don't they?

00:43:33Next on stage, please welcome Vanessa Porter.

00:43:37I just sold for $500,000.

00:43:42I set a new charity record.

00:43:44That crowd is going to eat you up.

00:43:46And remember, ladies and gents, your bids will be going towards a very special cause, cancer research labs.

00:43:54Standing next to me is our beautiful last model, Vanessa Porter.

00:43:58The lucky winner will be taking this lovely lady on a date and just dinner.

00:44:02No funny business.

00:44:04Okay, I'm talking to you, Mr. Rolstein.

00:44:07The bidding will start at $300,000.

00:44:11$500,000.

00:44:12$500,000.

00:44:14$600,000.

00:44:16Great, we have $600,000 over there.

00:44:19$700,000.

00:44:21We got $700,000 over here.

00:44:23$800,000.

00:44:25$800,000.

00:44:26$1 million.

00:44:32I just sold for $500,000.

00:44:35Set a new charity record.

00:44:36That crowd is going to eat you up.

00:44:38And remember, ladies and gents, your bids will be going towards a very special cause, cancer research labs.

00:44:46Standing next to me is our beautiful last model, Vanessa Porter.

00:44:51The lucky winner will be taking this lovely lady on a date and just dinner.

00:44:55No funny business.

00:44:56Okay, I'm talking to you, Mr. Rolstein.

00:44:59The bidding will start at $300,000.

00:45:04$500,000.

00:45:05$500,000.

00:45:07$600,000.

00:45:08Great, we have $600,000 over there.

00:45:12$700,000.

00:45:14We got $700,000 over here.

00:45:15$800,000.

00:45:17$800,000.

00:45:19$1 million.

00:45:25$1 million.

00:45:27Sir, wow, what an amazing finale.

00:45:30Any other bids?

00:45:32Going once.

00:45:33Going twice.

00:45:35And sold to that gentleman over there for $1 million.

00:45:40What an amazing finale, beating the previous record of...

00:45:45What's her name?

00:45:46Um, anyway, sir, please come up and claim your prize.

00:45:51This is going to be fun.

00:45:57You cannot go out on that date.

00:45:59It could be dangerous.

00:46:00I don't have a choice.

00:46:03You always have a choice.

00:46:05It's in the next room.

00:46:06It's in a controlled space.

00:46:07Why are you doing this?

00:46:09Because he wants me to back out.

00:46:11He wants to make you look bad.

00:46:14I'm doing this for the charity.

00:46:16It's just dinner in public.

00:46:17It'll be fine.

00:46:17Okay.

00:46:21I trust you.

00:46:23I also want to see what Bruno's up to.

00:46:26What's his game plan?

00:46:32You know, for a winning bet of $1 million,

00:46:34you'd think they'd serve at a hooch.

00:46:37I'd rather be home,

00:46:39drinking my wine from a box.

00:46:41You have so much in common.

00:46:44I'd rather be at your home, too.

00:46:46What do you want from me?

00:46:48What are you talking about, baby?

00:46:50I just want to get to know you.

00:46:53Oh, I have been very clear.

00:46:56I am not interested.

00:46:59Don't you know who I am?

00:47:01Oh, I know who you think you are.

00:47:05I paid a lot of money for this date.

00:47:07I mean, Cassini and I can make things very difficult

00:47:09for you and your little boyfriend.

00:47:16You know?

00:47:18This wine ain't that bad.

00:47:25Where are you going?

00:47:27The date ain't over yet, sweetheart.

00:47:30Can a girl use the restroom?

00:47:31Stop playing games, babe.

00:47:44We know what that $1 million bought me.

00:47:52I'm good, everybody.

00:47:53I'm good.

00:47:53Knock, knock.

00:48:09Hey, how was the date?

00:48:13And, um, who was this from?

00:48:15Uh, from Bruno, with all my love.

00:48:17Thanks for the magical night.

00:48:18Well, I guess that answers that.

00:48:20No, Sebastian, that's...

00:48:21It wasn't...

00:48:22No, no, it's fine.

00:48:23I have some work I need to be doing now.

00:48:35I'm just throwing this out there,

00:48:37but I think I'm entitled to more like 65%.

00:48:41Yeah, yeah, that sounds fine.

00:48:43Fine?

00:48:44Sebastian, that's robbery.

00:48:46Your head isn't in the game.

00:48:48We need to wrap this up so we can send it before Congress

00:48:51and push this merger through soon.

00:48:54A good negotiation is where both parties walk away equally unhappy.

00:48:59And right now, Sebastian, I'm very happy.

00:49:08That's it, Sebastian.

00:49:09I'm done.

00:49:11It's over.

00:49:13Wait, what do you mean that it's over?

00:49:15We need a break.

00:49:17Listen, why don't we take a long weekend?

00:49:19You can go home and refocus on this merger,

00:49:23and I can spend some time with my grandkids.

00:49:25We've spent every day at this damn office.

00:49:28We can come back on Tuesday and wrap this thing up.

00:49:33Okay.

00:49:34Yeah, yeah, that's a good idea.

00:49:36Let me...

00:49:37Everyone, listen up.

00:49:40Everyone can have all for the week with pay.

00:49:42So, do you have any plans for the weekend?

00:49:53How would I?

00:49:54I just found out I have the week off.

00:49:55Hmm, well, I'd like to take you to dinner.

00:49:57Sebastian, I...

00:49:59I can't.

00:50:01But thank you.

00:50:03My mom's still in the hospital, so I have to go visit her.

00:50:05Well, maybe she'd like a box of chocolates.

00:50:08Yeah, maybe she would.

00:50:09Can I come in?

00:50:17She's fine.

00:50:19I'd love to have a drink, but I can't.

00:50:21Well, no one offered you one.

00:50:22I can't, because I'm pregnant.

00:50:27You're pregnant.

00:50:28I don't know how to tell you this, Sebastian,

00:50:30but you're the father.

00:50:34That's impossible.

00:50:34We broke up three months ago.

00:50:36Can't you tell?

00:50:41I'm two months pregnant.

00:50:43No, no, no.

00:50:44I can't be the father.

00:50:45Okay.

00:50:46Well, I have a paternity test and ultrasound.

00:50:48Let's see different.

00:50:51Right there.

00:50:52Well, if this is true, then I'm not the type of man that runs from his responsibilities.

00:51:13That's what I love about you.

00:51:14You're so responsible.

00:51:16You need to go.

00:51:19I need time to think, Ruby.

00:51:21Leave that there for you.

00:51:32I don't know how I'm going to tell Vanessa, but I have to be honest with her.

00:51:36I think we got him.

00:51:37I hope so.

00:51:42You riding whore on her car did nothing.

00:51:45And me leaving those photos that I took when I broke into her house also didn't work.

00:51:48Okay, well, I'm still out two grand for a fake paternity test.

00:51:52I really thought Sebastian hitting me would ruin this merger.

00:51:55Okay, I still want the merger to happen, moron.

00:51:57I just want the divorce to happen after so that I get half.

00:52:01And if that doesn't work, we'll move on to plan C and eliminate Sebastian altogether.

00:52:06I know exactly where he hangs out when he needs time alone.

00:52:10He'll pay for humiliating a Lombardi.

00:52:37That is beautiful and delicious.

00:52:49Who's it from?

00:52:51I hope it's not from Bruno.

00:52:53Oh, my God.

00:52:57If you change your mind, I'm here for you.

00:53:01With all my love, Sebastian.

00:53:02It's a plane ticket to Italy.

00:53:15You must go.

00:53:17I'm not leaving you, Mom.

00:53:24Two tickets.

00:53:26Mom, how are you feeling?

00:53:31I'm feeling like I need to see the Italian countryside and eat some authentic Italian.

00:53:38Looks like we're going to Italy.

00:53:40Yes.

00:53:40Welcome.

00:53:55Hi.

00:53:59Nice to finally meet you.

00:54:00Oh, lovely to meet you too.

00:54:02Yeah, come on in.

00:54:04So, Miss Porter, how are you doing?

00:54:09Wonderful.

00:54:10Just wonderful.

00:54:11Thank you so much for bringing my daughter and I out here.

00:54:15And that private jet experience, that is the way to travel.

00:54:20And the food was delicious.

00:54:22What's mine is yours, so feel free to make yourself at home.

00:54:31Mom, where are you going?

00:54:32Are you feeling okay?

00:54:33I'm fine.

00:54:34Absolutely awesome.

00:54:35I have never felt better.

00:54:37Yeah.

00:54:38Yeah.

00:54:39So, I'm just off now to find myself an Italian man.

00:54:42Mom.

00:54:43You are in the right place, then.

00:54:45Oh, do not encourage her.

00:54:49I'm going to leave you guys alone.

00:54:50Enjoy.

00:54:53Well, cheers to that.

00:54:55Cheers to that.

00:54:56I need to come clean.

00:55:03Bruno and I...

00:55:04Look, I don't care, but...

00:55:05No, listen.

00:55:06We were never a thing.

00:55:07You and Bruno never had an affair?

00:55:09No, I faked the whole thing.

00:55:12Why?

00:55:13I didn't know how to break it off with you.

00:55:16I was afraid I was a distraction.

00:55:18So, I lied.

00:55:20And it blew up in my face.

00:55:24Vanessa, I need you to understand something very clearly.

00:55:28I'm not distracted by us together.

00:55:30I'm distracted by us apart.

00:55:32And I also want to be honest with you about something.

00:55:49Ruby told me that she is pregnant and it's mine.

00:55:52What?

00:55:53How?

00:55:53Look, I don't believe her, but I still do need to play this thing right.

00:55:57And I hope that you can trust me on this.

00:55:59Okay.

00:56:03I trust you.

00:56:07I love you.

00:56:13I love you, too.

00:56:29I love you.

00:56:59I love you, even I support her.

00:57:00I love you, Sebastian Armstrong.

00:57:02Mm-hmm.

00:57:10I should go, gentlemen.

00:57:12Okay.

00:57:14Mom!

00:57:18Mom?

00:57:18I'm coming for you, Mom.

00:57:45This is the address.

00:57:52Vanessa.

00:57:53Glad you made it.

00:57:55Looks like you brought here a little boyfriend.

00:58:05He's coming, boss.

00:58:07So is she.

00:58:08Let's go inside.

00:58:10Let's go inside.

00:58:14Look at you two.

00:58:15Wow.

00:58:16The perfect couple.

00:58:18What do you want, Bruno?

00:58:19I'll do the questioning.

00:58:21That's what people with guns get to do.

00:58:24We could have been a great team, but you had to blow it all for some trim.

00:58:29Just tell me why.

00:58:30Just tell me why.

00:58:31Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

00:58:33I always hated guys like you, Sebastian, bootstrap guys.

00:58:37That's why I'm going to love bleeding you dry for everything you worked for.

00:58:41I want your entire fortune.

00:58:46You son of a bitch.

00:58:49Calm down, Sebastian.

00:58:51You don't want to end up under the sea.

00:58:59Fine.

00:59:02For Teresa.

00:59:03We just need to know that she's alive.

00:59:05Mom, it's okay.

00:59:15Mom, it's okay.

00:59:17It's okay.

00:59:18Boo, boo.

00:59:21There's your proof of life.

00:59:23Transfer the money to this address using this phone.

00:59:28Come on.

00:59:29I'm so sorry that this is happening.

00:59:35This is all my fault.

00:59:41It's going to wipe you out.

00:59:44It doesn't matter.

00:59:46As long as you and your mother are safe.

00:59:49I can always make my money back, but I need you on my side.

00:59:53I need you.

00:59:59Ka-ching.

01:00:00Thanks for the money.

01:00:02But you didn't really think I'll let your mom go, did you?

01:00:16Oh, my...

01:00:17Ruby, you killed him.

01:00:21Oh, oopsies.

01:00:23I'm such a klutz.

01:00:26Guess I won't be sharing that money after all.

01:00:29What, honey?

01:00:32You play chess.

01:00:33You know the pawns always die.

01:00:36Hands up!

01:00:40Why are you doing this?

01:00:41I gave you everything.

01:00:43Why?

01:00:44Because you left me.

01:00:46Nobody leaves me.

01:00:48I get everything I've always wanted.

01:00:51You know exactly why.

01:00:55When I met you, you were nothing.

01:00:59The only reason you married me was for my family name.

01:01:01For my clout.

01:01:03You used me to climb the social ladder.

01:01:06Then once you got to the top, you dropped me.

01:01:08And what you think this whore can replace me?

01:01:12You're wrong.

01:01:13I married you for what I thought was out of love.

01:01:16But then I quickly realized that all you ever cared about was material shit.

01:01:21And I tried to prove to you that we can't have it all.

01:01:23We could.

01:01:26Spare me, Mr. Perfect, please.

01:01:28I really can't.

01:01:37No, no.

01:01:42Oopsies.

01:01:43Sorry, my little mouse.

01:01:44It won't happen again.

01:01:46Ruby, you can fix all of this.

01:01:47All you need to do is let Teresa go.

01:01:52Fix this.

01:01:54Yes.

01:01:55This is beyond repair, my dear husband.

01:01:59Revenge, retribution, whatever you want to call it.

01:02:01I finally have the power.

01:02:03Fuck you, bitch!

01:02:09Most dads give their girls jewelry, but not my dad.

01:02:13I used to think guns were scary.

01:02:15But in the right hand, they're quite beautiful.

01:02:18We could have been great, Sebastian, but you had to go ahead and ruin it all.

01:02:23Shut the fuck up, Ruby!

01:02:24I'm going to kill you both.

01:02:29And when the police get here, they'll find me laying on the ground, covered in blood, screaming,

01:02:34Help me!

01:02:36Help me!

01:02:37And I'll blame it on that, mafia moron.

01:02:44Drop it!

01:02:44You're okay?

01:03:12Yeah, I'm okay, honey.

01:03:13I knew you'd come and get me.

01:03:16But next time, can we go to Paris, please?

01:03:20Okay.

01:03:22Miss Porter, I'm Detective Colombo.

01:03:25We've been monitoring the Lombardi crime family for several months now,

01:03:28and we have all the information we need to indict Ruby and Bruno on an extortion plot.

01:03:33But how?

01:03:35We had somebody on the inside.

01:03:40You're a cop?

01:03:42Yep.

01:03:43Department of Justice undercover.

01:03:45The merger made us look into a possible crime link with Armstrong Enterprises.

01:03:49Turns out, Sebastian is legit.

01:03:50He just hired the wrong people.

01:03:52Luckily, Interpol connected me to the talent piece at just the right time.

01:03:55I would have never guessed.

01:03:57I guess those late-night wine sessions were just research, huh?

01:04:01Getting to be your friend was just one of the better things.

01:04:03Oh, one more thing.

01:04:06Mr. Armstrong, your money's secure.

01:04:08We made sure the transfer didn't go through.

01:04:13And in business news, the Congress has approved the Bastion Enterprise merger.

01:04:22CEO Sebastian Armstrong is now the richest man in the world.

01:04:26This merger is an unprecedented green deal.

01:04:28They have agreed to convert 70% of their carbon producing plants into renewable energy power plants.

01:04:33Cheers to Teresa being cancer-free for six months.

01:04:41Cheers.

01:04:45And cheers to Vanessa.

01:04:49For her hopefully making me the happiest man on Earth.

01:04:53Oh, my God.

01:04:58Will you marry me?

01:05:03Yes.

01:05:13I promise to love you forever.

01:05:17I promise to love you forever.
