00:00:00They say the most primal human things are fighting.

00:00:04And, well, I was about to learn both.

00:00:11Every girl wants to find her prince charming.

00:00:13But, unfortunately, we don't exactly live in a fairytale world.

00:00:17There's no such thing as happily ever after.

00:00:21Where is the duck for table two?

00:00:23Table two ordered something special, chef.

00:00:25Uh, no. Table two ordered the special, and the special is the duck.

00:00:32What is this?

00:00:33Nothing.

00:00:34Yes, exactly. This is nothing. Now, the duck.

00:00:38Just do what your boss says, Lily. You can't afford to lose another job.

00:00:42How can you pay for mom's operation when you're homeless?

00:00:45Table two, the duck.

00:00:51So, I'm thinking about adopting a dog.

00:00:53You know, like, the little tiny dogs that can fit in your handbag.

00:00:56They're so cute.

00:00:57So, anyway, once your inheritance is secure,

00:01:00the Morrison deal is all in the bag.

00:01:02But, what is this mystery clause you won't tell us about, Jack?

00:01:08Jack.

00:01:10Jack.

00:01:11Hello?

00:01:12Yeah, the duck.

00:01:16Hi.

00:01:20Hi.

00:01:23You ordered the special?

00:01:28Actually, I ordered the...

00:01:29Trust me.

00:01:30Who is that girl?

00:01:32Something about her.

00:01:35It's like I've been waiting for her my whole life.

00:01:36Wow.

00:01:37That was presumptuous.

00:01:39Huh?

00:01:39The waitress not bringing you what I ordered?

00:01:42Don't tell me you're actually impressed with that little slut, Jack.

00:01:44It looks good.

00:01:46The food or the waitress?

00:01:48And what do you think you are doing?

00:01:59I'm making something from the century.

00:02:01You know what?

00:02:01That's it.

00:02:02I've had enough.

00:02:03You are fired.

00:02:04Get out of here.

00:02:04Not this again.

00:02:07What did she say?

00:02:09I am serious this time.

00:02:11You are fired.

00:02:11You get out of here.

00:02:12What?

00:02:13You take this.

00:02:14You give up your act.

00:02:15You get out.

00:02:16No, please, sir.

00:02:17It won't happen again.

00:02:18No, it's no more, Mr. Nice Guys.

00:02:19It's time you get out.

00:02:20You leave.

00:02:21Please.

00:02:21No, no.

00:02:22Go ahead.

00:02:23Full call.

00:02:23Man.

00:02:24You're tired.

00:02:27They're taking the trash out, I see.

00:02:31Yeah, the trash.

00:02:35God.

00:02:37Asshole.

00:02:47Don't scream.

00:02:58Don't scream.

00:02:58Don't scream, babe.

00:03:00Or do scream for me.

00:03:02Don't scream.

00:03:07Hey.

00:03:16Hey, wait.

00:03:16Not now, Warren.

00:03:42Jack, my man.

00:03:43Hupasso.

00:03:44So I'm a little disappointed that you're making me ask again.

00:03:47When are you going to unlock the inheritance, bro?

00:03:49The deal of a lifetime isn't going to wait forever.

00:03:52Yeah.

00:03:54Yeah, come on, are you even listening?

00:03:56I mean, if we don't move on this Morrison thing, someone else will.

00:03:59And I mean, I'm not going to be that guy.

00:04:01Are you going to be that guy?

00:04:02Um.

00:04:05How can I help my mom when I can't even afford something to eat?

00:04:10Maybe next time.

00:04:11Thanks.

00:04:15Call me.

00:04:16I'll call you back.

00:04:17Jack, come on.

00:04:18He'll lock on me.

00:04:20Jack's never done that before.

00:04:21If he doesn't lock away this inheritance deal, then...

00:04:25The Morrison deal's over.

00:04:27We're over.

00:04:29Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren.

00:04:32I've got just the plan.

00:04:34Just when I think I've found her, she's gone again.

00:04:50How am I going to find her again?

00:04:52You could always marry Vivian Chase, sir.

00:05:01You out of your mind?

00:05:03Vivian and I are done.

00:05:04Never again.

00:05:05She's just...

00:05:07business now.

00:05:08Very well, sir.

00:05:10Although it is your inheritance at stake, sir.

00:05:13I'll find another wife.

00:05:14I'm afraid not.

00:05:15But the terms of your parents' will are quite specific.

00:05:20You must be married before your 32nd birthday for precisely 365 days.

00:05:25I know, I know.

00:05:26And with that fateful birthday fast approaching, there's little time.

00:05:30The inheritance must be claimed within the month.

00:05:32And most crucially of all, you must not tell a soul about the marriage cause.

00:05:39Especially your wife.

00:05:41Or I lose everything.

00:05:43Everything.

00:05:54Don't complain about things.

00:05:55I don't complain.

00:05:56I don't.

00:05:57All I'm saying is, you're going to have to start living in the real world.

00:06:01I am living in the real world.

00:06:08Really?

00:06:09Because getting fired yet from another restaurant job is the real world.

00:06:13Creative differences.

00:06:15There are always creative differences with you.

00:06:19Lily.

00:06:21You've got to open up your own place.

00:06:23You're a chef, not a fucking line cook.

00:06:25So you've got to show the world what you got.

00:06:27Besides, I have my share of money.

00:06:31But without yours, we're never going to be able to afford Mom's operation.

00:06:36Yeah, and it'll be all my fault.

00:06:39Lily.

00:06:42There is an opening at my office.

00:06:45Seriously?

00:06:46It's stable.

00:06:48Health insurance.

00:06:49401k.

00:06:50I'd rather die.

00:06:51You'd rather be broke.

00:06:52No, I'd rather...

00:06:53How can you help Mom when you can't even take care of yourself?

00:07:09Fine.

00:07:09Yeah, you're right.

00:07:11Let's do it.

00:07:12Hi.

00:07:38Name?

00:07:42Lily Dunning.

00:07:43Can I help you?

00:07:45Yes, I'm here for the job interview.

00:07:47My sister's Megan.

00:07:48She works here.

00:07:50Last place of employment?

00:07:52Chez Francois.

00:07:54A restaurant?

00:07:55Yes, I'm a chef.

00:07:57My passion's cooking, so I...

00:07:59And does this look like a restaurant to you?

00:08:01No.

00:08:02No, of course not.

00:08:05And why do you think someone like you could work here?

00:08:10Um, I just need a job.

00:08:13Sorry, I'm...

00:08:14Thanks, uh...

00:08:15We'll let you know, okay?

00:08:18You can go now.

00:08:20Bye-bye.

00:08:20Screw this!

00:08:32Fuck.

00:08:42What are you looking at?

00:08:45I'm sorry, Mom.

00:08:53I've tried everything, and I've let you down.

00:08:56You?

00:09:00Me.

00:09:03You dropped something.

00:09:06How did you?

00:09:10What are you doing here?

00:09:11I have a proposition for you.

00:09:15Sorry, I'm not interested in propositions from strange men in suits.

00:09:19Well, hold on.

00:09:20Just hear me out.

00:09:21I heard you get fired.

00:09:23I know you don't have any money.

00:09:26Looks like you're in a bit of a rough spot.

00:09:28I'm doing fine.

00:09:31Really?

00:09:34What if I told you this proposition could solve all your problems?

00:09:39Really?

00:09:41Solve all my problems?

00:09:43I've got a lot of problems.

00:09:45What if I told you I need a wife?

00:09:47I tell you that there are apps for that?

00:09:49For one year.

00:09:50Classy.

00:09:51Look, listen.

00:09:53I have a very important business deal

00:09:54with some very important people involved,

00:09:57and they need to see stability.

00:10:00Okay, so find someone stable.

00:10:02Well, that's just it.

00:10:04I need someone who won't fall in love with me.

00:10:06Someone who will just walk away after the year.

00:10:08And you seem uniquely qualified.

00:10:13What, you think I'm good at walking away?

00:10:21Okay, well, what's in it for me?

00:10:23Well, anything you want.

00:10:24Money.

00:10:25Place to live.

00:10:27Complete financial freedom to pursue your dreams.

00:10:30Just think of it as a business deal.

00:10:40Wow.

00:10:43Yeah, that's a really big diamond.

00:10:45It's just a very small part of the deal.

00:11:00You'll have your whole wing of the house.

00:11:02My own wing?

00:11:03Complete privacy.

00:11:05But you will have to attend events with me.

00:11:07Play the happy wife.

00:11:08This is, um...

00:11:32Specific.

00:11:35I like clarity.

00:11:36Wife agrees to perform...

00:11:48Very specific.

00:11:54Is there a problem?

00:11:57Jack, we need to talk.

00:12:01What's going on here?

00:12:02I'm saying yes.

00:12:23To everything.

00:12:24To everything.

00:12:24Do you, Jack Thorne?

00:12:41This is insane.

00:12:43Shut up, boy.

00:12:45Take Lily Dunning to be your lawfully wedded wife.

00:12:49This is fucking nonsense.

00:12:50Shut the fuck up.

00:12:53I do.

00:12:53I now pronounce you, husband and wife.

00:12:59I now pronounce you, husband and wife.

00:12:59You're out in the Hooke.

00:13:06I do.

00:13:07I'm the king of the man.

00:13:10I love you, husband and wife.

00:13:10You get married women and wife.

00:13:12I around and you're顔.

00:13:13You get married children and with this man.

00:13:14You get married children.

00:13:15You get married。

00:13:16You get married children.

00:13:17You want to be married and care?

00:13:17I lives like Santa Monica.

00:13:18You get married children.

00:13:19You get married children.

00:13:21You get married children.

00:13:23You get married now.

00:13:23You'll be married children.

00:13:24You get married and girlfriend.

00:13:24I'm from York City.

00:13:26I don't know that you're a husband.

00:13:26This marriage is, it's just a contract.

00:13:47Well, I think that the contract says that this is my room.

00:14:09Good night, husband.

00:14:14And this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain of an evening.

00:14:25The room on the left is the kitchen.

00:14:38We have the West Wing Library and the East Wing Pool.

00:14:46How do you find anything in here?

00:14:48One adapts, madam.

00:14:50And this room is the, um, oh dear.

00:15:04Would you excuse me?

00:15:08Of course.

00:15:09I'm going to call it.

00:15:21What are you doing here?

00:15:51Oh my gosh.

00:16:12Bravo?

00:16:15This is a lot.

00:16:18Your contract stipulates appropriate desire for all occasions, including tonight's charity

00:16:24gala.

00:16:25I can't accept this.

00:16:27You can, and you will.

00:16:30Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.

00:16:37You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.

00:16:40Wouldn't dream of it.

00:16:48Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?

00:16:56Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.

00:17:05Hi.

00:17:05And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?

00:17:13I don't need a knife.

00:17:14I need a chainsaw.

00:17:15Oh, okay.

00:17:17Jackie, there you are.

00:17:20Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.

00:17:22We simply must celebrate.

00:17:24I heard about your little stunt wedding.

00:17:28That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?

00:17:32I can think of a dozen things you could do to me.

00:17:40My God.

00:17:41This is a $10,000 Valentino.

00:17:44I'm sorry, but I didn't even do anything.

00:17:48Where did you find this one, Jackie?

00:17:49Wagstaff Training School?

00:17:51Vivian.

00:17:54Oh, that was it.

00:17:56She was actually a waitress.

00:17:58Or I don't remember.

00:17:59Whatever it was.

00:18:02Excuse me.

00:18:05So, when she got to say,

00:18:07I have,

00:18:07I don't want the eggs.

00:18:14So, as I was saying.

00:18:21You know, you should really come over here and taste this.

00:18:41I don't want the eggs.

00:19:11Well, payment for spying.

00:19:17Payment accepted.

00:19:18You know,

00:19:20the house this grand,

00:19:21I would expect

00:19:23a kitchen to match.

00:19:28I had to make do.

00:19:30Yeah, well, I never cook.

00:19:32It's a shame.

00:19:33You can go now.

00:19:58You, um,

00:19:59wanted to see me.

00:20:02Time for your first lesson.

00:20:04My what?

00:20:09Self-defense.

00:20:11Never know when you might need it.

00:20:13I don't know if that's really...

00:20:15Number one.

00:20:16Stance.

00:20:18Move the feet apart.

00:20:21Bend this knee.

00:20:23Yeah.

00:20:24Then move this foot forward.

00:20:26Good.

00:20:27Okay.

00:20:28Now, hands up.

00:20:30Protect the face.

00:20:32Okay.

00:20:33Now,

00:20:34like this.

00:20:35I'm not really good at this.

00:20:45We're just getting started.

00:20:47Oh.

00:20:49Maybe we should just focus on business.

00:20:53Rule number one.

00:20:55Stance.

00:20:57Right?

00:20:58Every chef needs proper tools.

00:21:28I have...

00:21:30A business expense?

00:21:34Business expense.

00:21:36These are...

00:21:38The best knives in the market.

00:21:40The best knives for the best chef?

00:21:44Why are you doing this?

00:21:46The contract.

00:21:48No.

00:21:49The real reason.

00:21:52Maybe I just like watching you work.

00:21:53Maybe...

00:21:55You just like watching me.

00:22:05You know that, um...

00:22:06This doesn't change anything.

00:22:10Of course not.

00:22:10This is for your mother.

00:22:22This...

00:22:23No, this is too much.

00:22:25This should cover the whole thing.

00:22:28They second it.

00:22:29I think that's literally the nicest thing a male has ever done for me.

00:22:37What's the catch?

00:22:38We've got a problem.

00:22:51Morning to you too.

00:22:53So, the inheritance release date is set, but...

00:22:56If anyone finds out about the marriage, then...

00:22:57No one's gonna find out.

00:22:59Oh, really?

00:23:00Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town.

00:23:02It's under control.

00:23:04Is it?

00:23:04It seems like you're letting your feelings control all your...

00:23:10I said it's handled.

00:23:22Just remember what's at stake here, yeah?

00:23:24This Morrison deal...

00:23:27is a deal of a lifetime.

00:23:31Don't tell me you're actually fooling me.

00:23:32Get out.

00:23:34Get out.

00:23:41Don't try.

00:23:47Don't try.

00:23:57Get out.

00:23:57.

00:23:59.

00:25:02Oh, no.

00:25:08God.

00:25:09Jack, darling.

00:25:25Bounty seeing you here.

00:25:26Vivian?

00:25:27The 82 crystal.

00:25:29Remember the crystal, Jack?

00:25:32I can still feel it running down my back just thinking about it.

00:25:36We even used to drink some of it.

00:25:39Anyway, we have business to discuss.

00:25:41You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.

00:25:43Oh, I'm so sorry.

00:25:48This must be so boring for you.

00:25:51You're so insightful, Vivian.

00:25:53You do bore me.

00:25:55Darling, the adults have business to discuss.

00:25:58Why don't you go back to, like, chopping or whatever it is that you do?

00:26:03So basically, you know, the company way that we have our investments holding in?

00:26:06I had a business meeting with Hannah today, and she has basically advised me to say that

00:26:11our investments are not making any profit.

00:26:13The company itself isn't actually doing all too well.

00:26:15So my proposal for next year would be basically

00:26:18Quite a whirlwind romance you've got there.

00:26:37What's the catch?

00:26:39There's always a catch.

00:26:41Excuse me.

00:26:42Rebecca Chen.

00:26:44Social pages.

00:26:45Two days from first meeting to marriage.

00:26:49This must be some kind of record.

00:26:52Though lately I've been more interested in, uh, business deals.

00:26:56Hmm.

00:26:56What would you say?

00:26:59Love at first sight or something more contractual?

00:27:04You know, you should really write romance novels.

00:27:06Seems you have quite the imagination.

00:27:13We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.

00:27:15I have a feeling there's quite a story here.

00:27:18I have a feeling there's quite a story here.

00:27:18Oh, the Morrison Foundation dinners tonight.

00:27:23Oh, the Morrison Foundation dinners tonight.

00:27:29Oh, great.

00:27:30Another dinner.

00:27:31It's important.

00:27:32They're all important.

00:27:33It's a part of the deal.

00:27:36They're all a part of the deal.

00:27:39You knew what you were signing up for.

00:27:40Did I?

00:27:41At least Vivian will be there.

00:27:46To talk deals and acquisitions and mergers.

00:27:52Okay, whatever.

00:27:53Nice.

00:28:06Real mature.

00:28:09No, don't.

00:28:11Fuck.

00:28:14Okay.

00:28:15Okay, fine.

00:28:16You want to go?

00:28:17Nope.

00:28:18No, no, no, no.

00:28:43I don't know.

00:29:13His inheritance is all set.

00:29:15But he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the proceeds to the Morrison deal.

00:29:19That's a problem.

00:29:21Hmm.

00:29:22It's the girl, isn't it?

00:29:23The waitress.

00:29:25You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.

00:29:28And I thought you had everything under control.

00:29:29Oh, I've done my part.

00:29:32That's underway.

00:29:33And I thought you'd have your part under control.

00:29:37I have everything under control.

00:29:40Oh, really?

00:29:40Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian.

00:29:42You know, maybe I overestimated your sway over, Jack.

00:29:45You haven't overestimated anything.

00:29:48I've just begun.

00:29:53I've got it.

00:29:54Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.

00:30:10I live here.

00:30:12Of course you do.

00:30:14Okay, thanks.

00:30:15Jack, darling.

00:30:19Should we proceed to the study?

00:30:20We need to discuss the Morrison deal.

00:30:23Yeah.

00:30:24Yeah.

00:30:28Oh, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.

00:30:35Vivian?

00:30:36Remember Tokyo?

00:30:40That Zaki bar?

00:30:42I'm married.

00:30:45Are you now?

00:30:47I hadn't noticed.

00:30:49Uh-huh.

00:30:50You know that feeling when you leave the house and you just feel like you've forgotten something?

00:30:58I forgot something.

00:31:10Maybe you can...

00:31:12Help me figure it out.

00:31:17Coffee?

00:31:18Oh, no thank you.

00:31:22Jack and I have much to catch up on.

00:31:25Oh.

00:31:26And Jack doesn't drink coffee.

00:31:28See you, Jack.

00:31:29Actually, I've taken it up recently.

00:31:31Hmm.

00:31:31I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it.

00:31:35And he just absolutely laps up every drop of my coffee.

00:31:44Isn't that right?

00:31:46Lily makes a great cup of coffee.

00:31:50Hmm.

00:31:53So.

00:31:56How's Vivian?

00:31:58Focus on your form.

00:31:59You know, I was just wondering.

00:32:02How long the two of you...

00:32:04Ancient history.

00:32:06That's not what I heard.

00:32:07From who?

00:32:09Around.

00:32:11Tokyo gets brought up a lot.

00:32:13You've been talking to Warren.

00:32:15You've been talking to Vivian.

00:32:18That's business.

00:32:20Everything is business with you, isn't it?

00:32:24But you know what?

00:32:25What's this?

00:32:31Some pretty big business.

00:32:33That you haven't been sharing with me.

00:32:36I think Vivian wants some of it, too.

00:32:39But you know what?

00:32:42Maybe you should just keep your business to yourself.

00:32:47Sad.

00:32:48Watch your stance.

00:32:49I don't want to be lied to.

00:32:56I'm not lying, Lily.

00:33:00Don't break my heart.

00:33:04Yeah.

00:33:04And then, we're going to make this thing.

00:33:06No.

00:33:08No.

00:33:29No.

00:33:30Oh...

00:33:31No.

00:33:32Yeah, this guy is so great today.

00:33:40Please act like you know me.

00:33:42There's someone following me.

00:33:44Oh my God, are you okay?

00:33:45Who's following you?

00:33:48That weirdo?

00:33:54Is he gone?

00:33:56I think he's gone.

00:34:02You sure?

00:34:13Like that?

00:34:17I think your technique could use some more.

00:34:20I got the dough to rise.

00:34:24Sure, that wasn't me.

00:34:32What?

00:34:51Of course.

00:34:52And I think the real challenge is market penetration and emerging economies.

00:34:56I'm sure Jack's brought you up to speed on all of this.

00:34:59Um, actually, I...

00:35:02Tell me, what's your take on blockchain integration?

00:35:05Um, I think...

00:35:09Oh, no comment.

00:35:10How surprising.

00:35:12Excuse me.

00:35:13Oh, great thinking, Lily.

00:35:15All of our drinks could use with a refill.

00:35:17I love you.

00:35:40I love you.

00:35:40But this thing isn't going to last forever, Jack.

00:35:52I don't know.

00:35:53I mean, what choice do you have?

00:35:56Clock's ticking, buddy.

00:35:58Unless you want to lose this deal forever.

00:36:02Lunch?

00:36:03I was just on my way out.

00:36:10Think about it, Jack.

00:36:19What was that about?

00:36:22Nothing.

00:36:22Just business.

00:36:23Just business.

00:36:25Of course.

00:36:27Lily, wait.

00:36:27Wait.

00:36:27What do you want, Jack?

00:36:55Taking you on a holiday.

00:36:56What?

00:36:57You have time for that?

00:37:00A lot of time.

00:37:02Just us?

00:37:04I know what I want.

00:37:09Oh, what about, um...

00:37:11What about Warren and the deal?

00:37:13I can wait.

00:37:17There she is.

00:37:19What?

00:37:20That smile.

00:37:22It's the one you had when I first laid eyes on you.

00:37:24I'll never forget it.

00:37:27You know that I don't just, um...

00:37:30Serve that dish to anyone, right?

00:37:32Really?

00:37:33Mm-hmm.

00:37:37I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Thorne.

00:37:40I've been told to relay that there's a problem back at the office.

00:37:44Timeline on the deal has moved up.

00:37:46Save.

00:37:48Would you like me to cancel the trip, sir?

00:37:50Yeah.

00:37:55I'm good.

00:37:57Who sent the message?

00:37:59Vivian Chase.

00:38:05Lil'Ban, I'm sorry.

00:38:06Don't.

00:38:06Please.

00:38:07It's just business.

00:38:08It's business, yeah.

00:38:09I get it.

00:38:10Lily, I shouldn't, uh...

00:38:21Just shut up and taste this.

00:38:33Mm.

00:38:34It's a taste of...

00:38:35Incredible?

00:38:36Yeah.

00:38:36Yeah, I know.

00:38:37Jack.

00:38:43Mm-hmm?

00:38:45Do you want more?

00:38:47Um, after this one.

00:38:48No.

00:38:50Let the food...

00:38:52Jack.

00:38:55Talking about us.

00:39:02How long are we going to keep on doing this?

00:39:03Oh, my God.

00:39:21What was that?

00:39:29Any enemies?

00:39:31Business rivals?

00:39:32No one comes to mind.

00:39:36Security cameras?

00:39:39Being installed as we speak.

00:39:50Mrs. Thorne?

00:39:53Sorry.

00:39:55Thought I saw...

00:40:00I'm worried.

00:40:01You okay?

00:40:04Yeah.

00:40:13Yeah.

00:40:17This is so insane.

00:40:21It's probably just kids.

00:40:22Kids?

00:40:24Seriously?

00:40:26Can you keep your voice down?

00:40:27Oh, sorry.

00:40:28What, are you afraid that someone's going to hear about our perfect marriage?

00:40:40What are you hiding from me?

00:40:45Hey.

00:40:48Hey, you know that secret room that you didn't want me to find?

00:40:52I found it.

00:40:54I found it.

00:40:55I found it.

00:40:57Yeah?

00:41:02Hey, at least it's honest.

00:41:08Do you want to see it?

00:41:11Show me.

00:41:11Bye.

00:41:14Bye.

00:41:15No, through.

00:41:16Bye, bye.

00:41:16Bye.

00:41:22See you.

00:41:30know that.

00:41:30All right.

00:41:30Bye.

00:41:31Bye.

00:41:32Bye.

00:41:33Bye.

00:41:34Bye.

00:41:35Bye.

00:41:36Bye.

00:41:37Bye.

00:41:38Bye.

00:41:39Most people run.

00:41:42I'm not most people.

00:41:47So, this is what you're into?

00:41:52Among other things.

00:41:54And all of those specific requirements.

00:42:00We're meant to scare you off.

00:42:02I don't scare you so.

00:42:04I'm starting to get that.

00:42:09Show me.

00:42:13You sure?

00:42:15Are you?

00:42:39What the hell...

00:42:49So?

00:42:56So?

00:43:03Sir, Miss Chase is here.

00:43:06She says it's urgent.

00:43:07Jack, the team is flying to Tokyo and they need you there

00:43:10Final deal points

00:43:12Jess leaving in 30

00:43:13I packed your bag and I'll be waiting downstairs

00:43:16Lily, wait

00:43:19Just go

00:43:37Lily, I can explain

00:43:55Can you?

00:44:01Guess some business can't wait

00:44:03This whole thing is

00:44:13Let me get this straight

00:44:15You sleep with him

00:44:17And then you find a note from his ex

00:44:19That's complicated

00:44:20When isn't it with you?

00:44:23Look, maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little

00:44:26What, a mistake?

00:44:28That you were right?

00:44:30Huh, is that what you want to hear?

00:44:31No, I want you to be happy

00:44:34And are you?

00:44:37I don't know what I am anymore

00:44:39I mean, he paid for mom's operation

00:44:42So that's cool, but I know

00:44:43And the worst part is I think I might actually be falling for

00:44:46Lily?

00:44:54Stand back

00:44:55What?

00:44:55Stand back, Megan

00:44:56Come on, let's go

00:45:15What was that?

00:45:23Lessons with Jack

00:45:24Jack, don't you that?

00:45:26Yeah

00:45:27Yeah

00:45:28Dude's getting better by a minute

00:45:30I know

00:45:30Oh, man

00:45:32You okay?

00:45:36Yeah

00:45:36God, things are supposed to be so simple

00:45:40Now what?

00:45:43Oh

00:45:44I don't even know what's real anymore

00:45:45Oh, honey

00:45:47I'm kidding

00:45:48He always keeps the ledger on his desk

00:46:18Lauren, I've known you since college

00:46:32How could you?

00:46:3911 months

00:46:40Almost a year

00:46:42I barely knew that's anymore

00:46:46Lily, I need to tell you something

00:46:59I'm all ears

00:47:00It's about the deal

00:47:02It's about Warren

00:47:04Vivian

00:47:04Well

00:47:05If it isn't the happy couple

00:47:08Oh, great

00:47:09The press

00:47:10These aren't real

00:47:22Oh, my sisters say they're very real

00:47:25Story runs in 48 hours

00:47:27Lily, this is what I was just about to tell you

00:47:29I've been set up

00:47:30Care to comment, Mrs. Thorne?

00:47:35You know, it's funny

00:47:38I

00:47:38For a minute

00:47:39I really believed

00:47:41Lily, wait

00:47:43They're not real

00:47:46Tick tock, Mr. Thorne

00:47:49Lily, wait

00:48:01They're not real

00:48:04You have to believe me

00:48:06Look, I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal

00:48:09Like, I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague

00:48:13Look, I believed that last night actually meant something

00:48:18It did

00:48:19Lily, what happened between us was

00:48:21The transaction

00:48:22That's all any of this ever was

00:48:25That's not true

00:48:27And you know it

00:48:29Do I?

00:48:30Because from where I'm standing

00:48:33You got everything that you wanted

00:48:36You got a wife when you needed one

00:48:38And a body when you wanted one

00:48:39No, wait, that's not it

00:48:41Tell me I'm wrong

00:48:42Tell me that there's not something more going on here

00:48:45With the business deal

00:48:47And your inheritance

00:48:48Anything more to explain?

00:48:57That's what I thought

00:48:58You're a terrible person

00:49:03If you leave now

00:49:06You violate the contract

00:49:07You get nothing

00:49:09I don't care

00:49:11I never cared about any of that

00:49:15Hands up

00:49:35Protect the face

00:49:36No, don't

00:49:38Go?

00:49:41No

00:49:42No

00:49:42Warren

00:49:51Finally, look

00:49:53About the Morrison deal

00:49:54It's off

00:49:55What do you mean it's off?

00:49:57All of it

00:49:58The deal

00:49:59The inheritance

00:50:00I don't want any of it

00:50:02Have you lost your freaking mind?

00:50:04I mean, everything that we've worked for

00:50:06Actually

00:50:06I think I found it

00:50:11What do you mean it's off of melane?

00:50:14What do you mean it's off of me?

00:50:15You mean it's off of me

00:50:32You can't just hide here forever.

00:50:46Watch me.

00:50:58Hey.

00:50:59What happened to the girl who would never back down?

00:51:02The one who quit her job because she didn't want to compromise?

00:51:06She played.

00:51:07Did she?

00:51:13If that's Jack, I'm sure that's just my octogenarian neighbor who's a total drama queen.

00:51:18Watch.

00:51:20Gladys?

00:51:23Gladys, is that you?

00:51:25Do you need help with your phone?

00:51:26Oh, no.

00:51:33Sir.

00:51:35Coffee.

00:51:36Hi.

00:51:37I did some digging around like you asked, sir.

00:51:40You might want to see this.

00:51:46What am I looking at here?

00:51:47Wire transfers, shell companies.

00:51:50All leading back to Mr. Block.

00:51:53More.

00:51:54I knew it.

00:51:55You might want to see these too, sir.

00:51:57They'll illuminate things even more.

00:52:03Son of a bitch.

00:52:05He's trying to steal the inheritance.

00:52:06He sure is.

00:52:08All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies.

00:52:11Although I suspect Ms. Chase's interests are not purely financial.

00:52:28Sir?

00:52:29They're threatening Lily and her sister.

00:52:31Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game.

00:52:35Give me everything you can about Warren.

00:52:36Every meeting, every call.

00:52:37Already compiled, sir.

00:52:39I had a feeling we might need this.

00:52:40Sir, what about the inheritance?

00:52:43Some things are worth more than money.

00:52:57I'm going back, Megan.

00:52:59I'm going back, Megan.

00:53:07I'm going back, Megan.

00:53:37I got us into this.

00:53:50I can get us out of this.

00:53:52I can do this.

00:53:53I can do this.

00:53:55Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.

00:54:00And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.

00:54:03If anything happens to her, that's up to you.

00:54:07Sign the papers.

00:54:10And this all goes away.

00:54:13Like those photos of you of me from that reporter suddenly went away.

00:54:19Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved.

00:54:23Don't they?

00:54:24I always knew you were soft.

00:54:26But this?

00:54:28Throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some chef.

00:54:31He's not throwing it away.

00:54:33He's giving it to us.

00:54:35All we need is a signature, Jack.

00:54:40You care too much, Jackie boy.

00:54:43Always have.

00:54:47I think we might need to send a little message.

00:54:52Wait.

00:54:52Let me go, you psycho.

00:55:14Remember your training.

00:55:20Protect your face.

00:55:26Megan!

00:55:27Lenny!

00:55:31Welcome to the party, sweetheart.

00:55:34Come on.

00:55:36Come on.

00:55:37Of course it's a trap.

00:55:44The question is,

00:55:46what are you going to do about it?

00:55:49Lenny!

00:55:50Oh!

00:55:53I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.

00:55:56Room 115.

00:55:57Lauren's called the police.

00:55:59Already done.

00:56:00But, sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.

00:56:02She doesn't have 20 minutes.

00:56:03No, no, no, no, no.

00:56:12Lauren, she's there.

00:56:14Louie's there.

00:56:19Hold on, Louie.

00:56:20Hold on.

00:56:21Hold on.

00:56:21Leave her alone!

00:56:35Shut up!

00:56:37Get away from my wife.

00:56:39Well, well.

00:56:41A hero arrives.

00:56:44Don't do it, Jackie boy.

00:56:48I'm not some damsel in distress.

00:56:52That's my girl.

00:57:00Oh.

00:57:01I guess it is real love, huh?

00:57:13That's for my sister.

00:57:15You son of a bitch.

00:57:16You son of a bitch.

00:57:19Yeah.

00:57:22Louie.

00:57:23About everything.

00:57:25The photos.

00:57:26Vivian.

00:57:27Now?

00:57:28Seriously?

00:57:29I love you.

00:57:31Not for any inheritance.

00:57:34Not for any deal.

00:57:35Just.

00:57:37You.

00:57:40I know.

00:57:40You.

00:57:50Stay right there.

00:57:52Come on.

00:57:52Cuff him.

00:57:53What the hell?

00:58:08This isn't...

00:58:09Possible.

00:58:09And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.

00:58:15Sign the papers.

00:58:16Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved.

00:58:19That proves nothing.

00:58:20I think it might prove something.

00:58:22Yeah, and those photos that you planted.

00:58:24Maybe use better AI next time.

00:58:26You can.

00:58:27Yes, they can.

00:58:29And you two are under arrest.

00:58:32No.

00:58:33You'll regret this, Jack.

00:58:34The inheritance, they are nothing compared to what I almost lost.

00:58:38You could have had it all, Jack.

00:58:42I do.

00:58:49Yes, thank you.

00:58:51Thanks.

00:58:52Thanks.

00:58:52Now that's a story.

00:59:01Here to twist the knife?

00:59:03Actually.

00:59:04I'm here to get it right.

00:59:07Where did you?

00:59:08Lawrence sends his regards.

00:59:11Seems your butler is a little armchair investigative journalist.

00:59:15So, no scandal piece?

00:59:17Oh, there's definitely a scandal.

00:59:19But, not the one they wanted me to bite on.

00:59:26That's actually accurate.

00:59:28I'm a reporter.

00:59:30Truth is kind of my thing.

00:59:32Though, I must admit, I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.

00:59:37Yeah, neither did they.

00:59:39Story runs tomorrow.

00:59:42Catch you on the next scandal.

00:59:43It will be about the inheritance.

00:59:52Do you really think that I care about any of that now?

00:59:59Just take me home.

01:00:02Yes, dear.

01:00:03Sun's coming, huh?

01:00:13Must be a new record.

01:00:16It is for me.

01:00:19Any regrets?

01:00:21Only one.

01:00:24That didn't get your chef special sooner.

01:00:26Could have saved us a lot of trouble.

01:00:28Yeah.

01:00:29How?

01:00:29Excuse me, sir.

01:00:34Miss Chen's article is out.

01:00:36How bad is it?

01:00:38Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.

01:00:40She's included the last bit you wanted to put in.

01:00:43Jack Thorne announced plans.

01:00:57In a shocking turn of events, tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans to transform

01:01:02his inherited fortune into the city's largest culinary grant program.

01:01:07Surprised?

01:01:08But your inheritance is gone.

01:01:14Well, the inheritance, yeah.

01:01:16But turns out selling a tech company can be quite profitable.

01:01:19You sold the company?

01:01:21Turns out some things are worth more than money.

01:01:30My turn.

01:01:32I don't know.

01:01:32Perfect, Julie and Danny.

01:01:40Keep them thin, okay?

01:01:41Just like that.

01:01:41This was good audio.

01:02:00And who said there's no such thing as a happily ever after?

01:02:04Suckers.

01:02:05Can I get you your usual, sir?

01:02:08It depends.

01:02:10Did my wife make it?

01:02:11Hmm, the very same wife that you married her business?

01:02:14Best business decision I ever made.

01:02:22Hang on.

01:02:30Voila.

01:02:35I'm the best chef in town.

01:02:37You're only saying that because you're contractually obligated.

01:02:42I think that contract expired.

01:02:46Good thing I signed a new one.

01:02:54We are gathered here today.

01:02:56No more business deals this time.

01:02:58Just love.

01:03:00Good.

01:03:00Because I have some terms of my own.

01:03:05First, you have to eat everything I cook.

01:03:09Done.

01:03:11Second, no more locked rooms.

01:03:15Without me in it.

01:03:19Is that all?

01:03:21Third, you have to mean it this time.

01:03:24I met it the first time.

01:03:26Just didn't know you.

01:03:29The rings?

01:03:30Actually.

01:03:36Is that...

01:03:37Something old.

01:03:39Something new.

01:03:40Something borrowed.

01:03:42Something...

01:03:44Not one.

01:03:45For better or worse.

01:03:55For real this time.

01:03:58You make us the bright.

01:03:59So...

01:04:16Are you ready for your honeymoon?

01:04:20What are you...

01:04:21Lauren, tell me back.

01:04:24Mrs. Thorne, are you trying to negotiate new business terms?

01:04:34I don't know.

01:04:36Mr. Thorne.

01:04:39Can you handle them?

01:04:41I thought this wasn't about business anymore.

01:04:45How about you just shut up and kiss your wife?

01:04:48I don't know.

01:04:50What the hell?

01:04:51How about you?

01:04:52I don't have to do this.

01:04:53Ugh!

01:05:03Ah!

01:05:04nuts!

01:05:09Oh, man.

01:05:13Ah!

01:05:15Oh, my God.

01:05:16Oh, man.

01:05:17Oh, my God.
