00:00:00Well, I was about to win both.
00:00:06Every girl wants to find her prince charming,
00:00:08but unfortunately, we don't exactly live in a fairytale world.
00:00:12There's no such thing as happily ever after.
00:00:16Where is the duck for table two?
00:00:18Table two ordered something special, chef.
00:00:23No, table two ordered the special and the special is the duck.
00:00:27What is this?
00:00:28Nothing.
00:00:29Yes, exactly. This is nothing. Now, the duck.
00:00:33Just do what your boss says, Lily.
00:00:35You can't afford to lose another job.
00:00:37How can you pay for mom's operation when you're homeless?
00:00:40Table two, the duck.
00:00:46So I'm thinking about adopting a dog.
00:00:48You know, like the little tiny dogs that can fit in your handbag.
00:00:51They're so cute.
00:00:52So anyway, once your inheritance is secure,
00:00:55the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:00:56But what is this mystery clause you want to tell us about, Jack?
00:01:03Jack.
00:01:05Jack.
00:01:06Hello?
00:01:07Yeah, the dog.
00:01:11Hi.
00:01:14Hi.
00:01:15You ordered the special?
00:01:23Actually, I ordered the...
00:01:24Trust me.
00:01:25Who is that girl?
00:01:27Something about her.
00:01:30It's like I've been waiting for her my whole life.
00:01:31Wow.
00:01:32That was presumptuous.
00:01:34Huh?
00:01:34The waitress not bringing you what I ordered?
00:01:37Don't tell me you're actually impressed by that little slut, Jack.
00:01:39It looks good.
00:01:41The food or the waitress?
00:01:43And what do you think you are doing?
00:01:54I'm making something from the century.
00:01:56You know what?
00:01:56That's it.
00:01:57I've had enough.
00:01:58You are fired!
00:01:59Get out of here!
00:01:59Not this again.
00:02:02What did you say?
00:02:04I am serious this time.
00:02:06You are fired!
00:02:06You get out of here!
00:02:07What?
00:02:08You take this.
00:02:09You clean up your act.
00:02:10You get out!
00:02:11No, please, sir.
00:02:12It won't happen again.
00:02:13No, it's no more, Mr. Nice Guys.
00:02:14It's time you get out.
00:02:15You leave.
00:02:16Please!
00:02:16No, no!
00:02:17Go ahead!
00:02:18Full call!
00:02:18Man!
00:02:19Two times!
00:02:22They're taking the trash out, I see.
00:02:26Yeah, the trash.
00:02:30God.
00:02:32Asshole.
00:02:42Don't scream.
00:02:52Don't scream, baby.
00:02:55Or do scream for me.
00:02:57Please!
00:03:02Hey!
00:03:02Hey, wait.
00:03:15Not now, Warren.
00:03:37Jack, my man.
00:03:38Hupasso.
00:03:39So, I'm a little disappointed that you're making me ask again.
00:03:42When you're going to unlock the inheritance, bro?
00:03:44The deal of a lifetime isn't going to wait forever.
00:03:47Yeah.
00:03:48Yeah, come on, are you even listening?
00:03:51I mean, if we don't move on this Morrison thing, someone else will.
00:03:54And I mean, I'm not going to be that guy.
00:03:56Are you going to be that guy?
00:03:57Um, how can I help my mom when I can't even afford something to eat?
00:04:05Maybe next time.
00:04:08Thanks.
00:04:10Call me.
00:04:11I'll call you back.
00:04:12Jack, come on.
00:04:12Look, he can't lock on me.
00:04:15Jack's never done that before.
00:04:16If he doesn't lock away this inheritance deal, then the Morrison deal's over.
00:04:22We're over.
00:04:23Don't you worry your wrinkled little forehead, Warren.
00:04:27I've got just the plan.
00:04:29Just when I think I've found her, she's gone again.
00:04:46How am I going to find her again?
00:04:47You could always marry Vivian Chase, sir.
00:04:56You out of your mind?
00:04:58Vivian and I are done.
00:04:59Never again.
00:05:00She's just business now.
00:05:03Very well, sir.
00:05:05Although it is your inheritance at stake, sir.
00:05:08I'll find another wife.
00:05:09I'm afraid not.
00:05:11But the terms of your parents' will are quite specific.
00:05:15You must be married before your 32nd birthday for precisely 365 days.
00:05:20I know, I know.
00:05:21And with that fateful birthday fast approaching, there's little time.
00:05:25The inheritance must be claimed within the month.
00:05:27And most crucially of all, you must not tell a soul about the marriage cause.
00:05:34Especially your wife.
00:05:36Or I lose everything.
00:05:38Everything.
00:05:49Don't complain about things.
00:05:50I don't complain.
00:05:51I don't.
00:05:52All I'm saying is, you're going to have to start living in the real world.
00:05:56I am living in the real world.
00:06:03Really?
00:06:04Because getting fired yet from another restaurant job is the real world.
00:06:08Creative differences.
00:06:10There are always creative differences with you.
00:06:14Lily.
00:06:16You've got to open up your own place.
00:06:18You're a chef, not a fucking line cook.
00:06:20So you've got to show the world what you've got.
00:06:22Besides, I have my share of money.
00:06:26But without yours, we're never going to be able to afford Mom's operation.
00:06:31Yeah, and it'll be all my fault.
00:06:34Lily.
00:06:37There is an opening at my office.
00:06:40Seriously?
00:06:41It's stable.
00:06:43Health insurance.
00:06:44401k.
00:06:45I'd rather die.
00:06:46You'd rather be broke.
00:06:47No, I'd rather...
00:06:48How can you help Mom when you can't even take care of yourself?
00:07:04Fine.
00:07:04Yeah, you're right.
00:07:06Let's do it.
00:07:07Hi.
00:07:33Name?
00:07:37Lily Dunning.
00:07:38Can I help you?
00:07:40Yes, I'm here for the job interview.
00:07:42My sister's Megan.
00:07:43She works here.
00:07:45Last place of employment?
00:07:47Chez Francois.
00:07:49A restaurant?
00:07:50Yes, I'm a chef.
00:07:52My passion's cooking, so I...
00:07:54And does this look like a restaurant to you?
00:07:56No.
00:07:58No, of course not.
00:08:00And why do you think someone like you could work here?
00:08:05Um, I just need a job.
00:08:08Sorry, I'm...
00:08:09Thanks, sir.
00:08:10We'll let you know, okay?
00:08:13You can go now.
00:08:15Bye-bye.
00:08:15Screw this!
00:08:28Fuck.
00:08:38What are you looking at?
00:08:40I'm sorry, Mom.
00:08:48I've tried everything, and I've let you down.
00:08:51You?
00:08:55Me.
00:08:58You dropped something.
00:09:01How did you?
00:09:05What are you doing here?
00:09:07I have a proposition for you.
00:09:09Sorry, I'm not interested in propositions from strange men in suits.
00:09:14Well, hold on. Just hear me out.
00:09:16I heard you get fired.
00:09:19I know you don't have any money.
00:09:21Looks like you're in a bit of a rough spot.
00:09:23I'm doing fine, thank you.
00:09:26Really?
00:09:29What if I told you this proposition could solve all your problems?
00:09:34Really? Solve all my problems?
00:09:37I've got a lot of problems.
00:09:40What if I told you I need a wife?
00:09:42I tell you that there are apps for that.
00:09:44For one year.
00:09:45Classy.
00:09:46Look, listen.
00:09:48I have a very important business deal with some very important people involved,
00:09:52and they need to see stability.
00:09:55Okay, so find someone stable.
00:09:57Well, that's just it.
00:09:58I need someone who won't fall in love with me.
00:10:01Someone who will just walk away after the year.
00:10:04And you seem uniquely qualified.
00:10:08But you think I'm good at walking away?
00:10:09Okay, well, what's in it for me?
00:10:18Well, anything you want.
00:10:19Money.
00:10:20Place to live.
00:10:22Complete financial freedom to pursue your dreams.
00:10:25Just think of it as a business deal.
00:10:26You'll have your whole wing of the house.
00:10:56My own wing?
00:10:58Complete privacy.
00:11:00But you will have to attend events with me.
00:11:02Play the happy wife.
00:11:03This is, um...
00:11:27Specific?
00:11:29I like clarity.
00:11:39Wife agrees to perform...
00:11:43Very specific.
00:11:49Is there a problem?
00:11:51Jack, we need to talk.
00:11:53What's going on here?
00:12:01No.
00:12:07I'm saying yes.
00:12:08To everything.
00:12:32Do you?
00:12:34Jack Thorne.
00:12:35This is insane.
00:12:38Shut up, boy.
00:12:40Take Lily Dunning to be your lawfully wedded wife.
00:12:44This is fucking nuts.
00:12:45Shut the fuck up.
00:12:48I do.
00:12:48I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:12:54I now pronounce you husband and wife.
00:12:54I'm sorry.
00:12:55I know you, Chad.
00:12:56It's not West.
00:12:58I'm sorry.
00:13:19Yeah.
00:13:20Bye.
00:13:21This marriage is, it's just a contract.
00:13:46Well, I think that the contract says that this is my room.
00:14:02What?
00:14:03Good night, husband.
00:14:14And this is where Mr. Thorne likes to entertain of an evening.
00:14:19In the room on the left is the kitchen.
00:14:25And we have the West Wing Library and the East Wing Pool.
00:14:40How do you find anything in here?
00:14:43One of ducks, madam.
00:14:45And this room is the, um, oh dear.
00:15:01Would you excuse me?
00:15:03Of course.
00:15:04Apologies.
00:15:33What are you doing here?
00:15:40Oh my gosh.
00:15:59Bravo?
00:16:00This is a lot.
00:16:01Your contract stipulates appropriate attire for all occasions.
00:16:04Including tonight's charity gala.
00:16:05I, I can't accept this.
00:16:06You can.
00:16:07And you will.
00:16:08Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.
00:16:09You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:10Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:11I don't know.
00:16:13You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:14Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:15feel as appropriate as hire for all occasions,
00:16:18including tonight's charity gala.
00:16:21I can't accept this.
00:16:22You can, and you won't.
00:16:25Unless you want to attend the event in jeans.
00:16:33You know, this doesn't mean that I like you.
00:16:35Wouldn't dream of it.
00:16:45Ready for your debut, Mrs. Thorne?
00:16:51Yes, I am, Mr. Thorne.
00:17:05And then I said, do you want me to cut this steak?
00:17:08I don't need a knife.
00:17:09I need a chainsaw.
00:17:10Oh, OK.
00:17:12Jackie, there you are.
00:17:15Warren tells me the Morrison deal is all in the bag.
00:17:17We simply must celebrate.
00:17:20Oh, I heard about your little stunt wedding.
00:17:23That doesn't mean we can't celebrate, right?
00:17:27I could think of a dozen things you could do to me.
00:17:32Oh, my god.
00:17:36This is a $10,000 Valentino.
00:17:39I'm sorry, but I didn't even do anything.
00:17:43Where did you find this one, Jackie?
00:17:45Waitestaff Training School.
00:17:46Vivian.
00:17:49Oh, that was it.
00:17:51She was actually a waitress.
00:17:53Or, I don't remember, whatever it was.
00:17:57Excuse me.
00:18:00So, what you guys have, watch out for the eggs.
00:18:09As I was saying.
00:18:12You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:18:26You know, you should really come over here and taste this.
00:18:38But every piece of milk will be gone.
00:18:42But every piece of milk decided on the next stretch is the most proper 단こと.
00:18:47But definitely get wild for the eggs.
00:18:48Why, are you getting wild for heaven?
00:18:50Well, really, don't win.
00:18:51What or what again?
00:18:52I want you to be 45 minutes...
00:18:53So here's what I do.
00:18:54Wow.
00:18:57Wow.
00:19:02Good?
00:19:04Surprisingly good.
00:19:05Surprisingly good.
00:19:09Well, payment for spying.
00:19:11Payment accepted.
00:19:13You know, the house this grand, I would expect a kitchen to match.
00:19:23I had to make do.
00:19:25Yeah, well, I never cook.
00:19:26Hmm.
00:19:27It's a shame.
00:19:36You can go now.
00:19:53You, um, wanted to see me.
00:19:57Time for your first lesson.
00:19:59My what?
00:20:05Self-defense.
00:20:07Never know when you might need it.
00:20:08I don't know if that's really...
00:20:09Number one, stance.
00:20:11Move the feet apart.
00:20:15Bend this knee.
00:20:17Yeah.
00:20:18Then move this foot forward.
00:20:20Good.
00:20:21Good.
00:20:21Good.
00:20:21Good.
00:20:22Okay.
00:20:23Now, hands up.
00:20:25Protect the face.
00:20:27Good.
00:20:28Now, like this.
00:20:30Oh, God.
00:20:31Oh, God.
00:20:32Sorry.
00:20:36I'm not really good at this.
00:20:40We're just getting started.
00:20:42Oh.
00:20:44Maybe we should just focus on business.
00:20:48Rule number one.
00:20:50Stance.
00:20:51Right?
00:20:53Right?
00:20:53Right?

00:21:10Right?
00:21:11Right?
00:21:11Right?
00:21:11Every chef needs proper tools
00:21:23I have a business expense
00:21:27Business expense
00:21:30These are the best knives in the market
00:21:34The best knives are the best chef
00:21:36Why are you doing this?
00:21:41The contract?
00:21:42No
00:21:44The real reason
00:21:46Maybe I just like watching you work
00:21:51Maybe
00:21:54You just like watching me
00:21:59You know that um
00:22:02This doesn't change anything
00:22:04Of course not
00:22:11This is for your mother
00:22:18No this is too much
00:22:19This should cover the whole thing
00:22:23At least I can do
00:22:27I think that's literally the nicest thing a male has ever done for me
00:22:31What's the catch?
00:22:34We've got a problem
00:22:45Morning to you too
00:22:47So the inheritance release date is set but if anyone finds out about the marriage then
00:22:52No one's gonna find out
00:22:53Oh really?
00:22:54Because your little chef seems to be quite the talk of the town
00:22:56It's under control
00:22:57It's under control
00:22:58Is it?
00:22:59It seems like you're letting your feelings control your
00:23:03I said it's handled
00:23:16Just remember what's at stake here yeah?
00:23:18This Morrison deal
00:23:20Is a deal of a lifetime
00:23:22Don't tell me you're actually fooling
00:23:26Get out
00:23:27Get out
00:23:57Get out
00:23:58Go

00:24:13A's
00:24:15To be able to
00:24:18Hear
00:24:19Can

00:24:22To be able Approximately
00:24:54Oh, no.
00:25:03God.
00:25:18Jack, darling.
00:25:20Bounty seeing you here.
00:25:21Vivian?
00:25:22The 82 Crystal.
00:25:24Remember the Crystal Jack?
00:25:27I can still feel it running down my back just thinking about it.
00:25:31We even used to drink some of it.
00:25:34Anyway, we have business to discuss.
00:25:36You'll never believe what Hannah said about the Asian market today.
00:25:38Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:25:43This must be so boring for you.
00:25:46You're so insightful, Vivian.
00:25:48You do bore me.
00:25:50Darling, the adults have business to discuss.
00:25:53Why don't you go back to, like, chopping or whatever it is that you do.
00:25:58So basically, you know, the company way that we have our investments holding in.
00:26:01I had a business meeting with Hannah today, and she has basically advised me to say that
00:26:06our investments are not making any profit.
00:26:08The company itself isn't actually doing all too well.
00:26:10So my proposal for next year would be basically...
00:26:13Quite a whirlwind romance you've got there.
00:26:31What's the catch?
00:26:35There's always a catch.
00:26:36Excuse me.
00:26:37Rebecca Chen.
00:26:39Social pages.
00:26:40Two days from first meeting to marriage.
00:26:44This must be some kind of record.
00:26:47Though lately I've been more interested in business deals.
00:26:51Hmm.
00:26:51What would you say?
00:26:52Love at first sight, or something more contractual?
00:26:58You know, you should really write romance novels.
00:27:01Seems you have quite the imagination.
00:27:08We'll talk again soon, Mrs. Thorne.
00:27:10I have a feeling there's quite a story here.
00:27:13Oh, the Morrison Foundation dinner's tonight.
00:27:24Oh, great.
00:27:25Another dinner.
00:27:26It's important.
00:27:27They're all important.
00:27:28It's a part of the deal.
00:27:31They're all a part of the deal.
00:27:33You knew what you were signing up for.
00:27:36Did I?
00:27:36Did I?
00:27:37At least Vivian will be there.
00:27:41To talk deals and acquisitions and mergers.
00:27:47Okay, whatever.
00:27:59Nice.
00:28:01Real mature.
00:28:04No, don't.
00:28:05Fuck.
00:28:09Okay.
00:28:10Okay, fine.
00:28:11You want to go?
00:28:12Nope.
00:28:15No, no, no.
00:28:20Okay, Billy.
00:28:21Yeah?
00:28:22Yeah?
00:28:23No, no, no, no.
00:28:23No, no, no, no.
00:28:25Let's go.
00:28:26No.
00:28:27No.
00:28:28No.
00:28:30Ow!
00:28:31Oh.
00:28:32Oh.
00:28:33Oh.
00:28:33Yeah.
00:29:01Yeah.
00:29:01Yeah.
00:29:01So, Jack's inheritance is all set.
00:29:10But he still hasn't signed the papers to commit the proceeds to the Morrison deal.
00:29:14That's a problem.
00:29:16Hmm.
00:29:17It's the girl, isn't it?
00:29:18The waitress.
00:29:19You and I both know she's been a problem from the start.
00:29:23And I thought you had everything under control.
00:29:24Oh, I've done my part.
00:29:27That's underway.
00:29:28And I thought you'd have your part under control.
00:29:30I have everything under control.
00:29:35Oh, really?
00:29:35Because it doesn't seem like it, Vivian.
00:29:37You know, maybe I overestimated your sway over, Jack.
00:29:40You haven't overestimated anything.
00:29:43I've just begun.
00:29:49I've got it.
00:29:49Funny how you can always count on the help to answer the door.
00:30:05I live here.
00:30:07Of course we do.
00:30:09Okay, thanks.
00:30:12Jack, darling.
00:30:14Should we proceed to the study?
00:30:15We need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:18Yeah.
00:30:19Yeah.
00:30:23Well, we need to discuss the Morrison deal.
00:30:30Vivian?
00:30:33Remember Tokyo?
00:30:35That Zaki bar?
00:30:37I'm married.
00:30:40Oh, you know.
00:30:42I hadn't noticed.
00:30:44Uh-huh.
00:30:45You know that feeling?
00:30:47When you leave the house
00:30:49and you just feel like
00:30:51you've forgotten something?
00:31:01I forgot something.
00:31:05Maybe you can
00:31:06help me figure it out?
00:31:09Coffee?
00:31:15Oh, no thank you.
00:31:17Jack and I have much to catch up on.
00:31:20Oh, and Jack doesn't drink coffee.
00:31:23See you, Jack.
00:31:24Actually, I've taken it up recently.
00:31:26I guess before me, Jack never really had coffee how he liked it.
00:31:29And he just absolutely laps up every drop of my coffee.
00:31:39Isn't that right?
00:31:41Lily makes a great cup of coffee.
00:31:42Hmm.
00:31:43Hmm.
00:31:48So.
00:31:51How's Vivian?
00:31:53Focus on your form.
00:31:54You know.
00:31:56I was just wondering.
00:31:57How long the two of you...
00:31:59Ancient history.
00:32:01That's not what I heard.
00:32:02From who?
00:32:04Around.
00:32:06Tokyo gets brought up a lot.
00:32:08You've been talking to Warren.
00:32:09You've been talking to Vivian.
00:32:13That's business.
00:32:15Everything is business with you, isn't it?
00:32:20But you know what?
00:32:23What's this?
00:32:26Some pretty big business
00:32:27that you haven't been sharing with me.
00:32:31I think Vivian wants some of it, too.
00:32:34But you know what?
00:32:37Maybe you should just keep your business
00:32:39to yourself.
00:32:41Sad.
00:32:43Watch your stance.
00:32:48I don't want to be lied to.
00:32:51I'm not lying, Lily.
00:32:55Don't break my heart.
00:32:59Yeah.
00:32:59I don't want to be lied to.
00:33:17Yeah.
00:33:18I don't want to be lied to.
00:33:19I don't want to be lied to.
00:33:23I think that's one thing they've already done.
00:33:24Please act like you know me, there's someone following me.
00:33:38Oh my god, are you okay?
00:33:40Who's following you?
00:33:43That weirdo?
00:33:49Is he gone?
00:33:51I think he's gone.
00:33:54You sure?
00:34:08Like that?
00:34:12I think your technique could use some more.
00:34:15I got the dota rides.
00:34:19You sure that wasn't me?
00:34:24What?
00:34:36What?
00:34:36Of course.
00:34:40What?
00:34:46Of course.
00:34:47And I think the real challenge is market penetration and emerging economies.
00:34:51I'm sure Jack's brought you up to speed on all of this.
00:34:55Um, actually, I...
00:34:57Tell me, what's your take on blockchain integration?
00:35:00Um, I think...
00:35:04Oh, no comment.
00:35:05How surprising.
00:35:07Excuse me.
00:35:08Great thinking, Lily.
00:35:10All of our drinks could be used with a refill.
00:35:29Love you.
00:35:35But this thing isn't going to last forever, Jack.
00:35:47I don't know.
00:35:48I mean, what choice do you have?
00:35:51Clock's ticking, buddy.
00:35:53Unless you want to lose this deal forever.
00:35:57Lunch?
00:35:58I was just on my way out.
00:36:05Think about it, Jack.
00:36:14What was that about?
00:36:17Nothing.
00:36:17Just business.
00:36:18Just business.
00:36:20Of course.
00:36:22Lily, wait.
00:36:22What do you want, Jack?
00:36:28What do you want, Jack?
00:36:29Taking you on a holiday.
00:36:51What?
00:36:52You have time for that?
00:36:54A lot of time.
00:36:58Just us?
00:36:59I know what I want.
00:37:04Oh, what about, um...
00:37:06What about Warren and the deal?
00:37:08I can wait.
00:37:12There she is.
00:37:14What?
00:37:14That smile.
00:37:17It's the one you had when I first laid ass on you.
00:37:20I'll never forget it.
00:37:22You know that I don't just, um...
00:37:25Serve that dish to anyone, right?
00:37:27Really?
00:37:28Mm-hmm.
00:37:28I'm so sorry to interrupt, Mr. Thorne.
00:37:35I've been told to relay that there's a problem back at the office.
00:37:39Timeline on the deal has moved up.
00:37:41Save.
00:37:43Would you like me to cancel the trip, sir?
00:37:48Yeah.
00:37:50You're good.
00:37:52Who sent the message?
00:37:54Vivian Chase.
00:37:55It'll be I'm sorry.
00:38:01Don't, please.
00:38:02It's just business.
00:38:03It's business, yeah.
00:38:04I get it.
00:38:15Lily, I shouldn't, uh...
00:38:16Just shut up and taste this.
00:38:25This tastes, uh...
00:38:30Incredible?
00:38:31Yeah.
00:38:31Yeah, I know.
00:38:33Mm.
00:38:37Jack.
00:38:38Mm-hmm?
00:38:40Do you want more?
00:38:42Um, after this one.
00:38:43No.
00:38:45Let the food...
00:38:48Jack.
00:38:50Talking about us.
00:38:51How long are we going to keep on doing this?
00:39:12Oh!
00:39:13Oh, my God.
00:39:16What was that?
00:39:16What was that?
00:39:21Any enemies?
00:39:26Business rivals?
00:39:28No one comes to mind.
00:39:31Security cameras?
00:39:33Being installed as we speak.
00:39:45Mrs. Thorne?
00:39:46I'm sorry.
00:39:50That's what I saw.
00:39:55I'm worried.
00:39:56You okay?
00:39:58Yeah.
00:40:09Yeah.
00:40:13This is so insane.
00:40:16It's probably just kids.
00:40:17Kids?
00:40:19Seriously.
00:40:21Can you keep your voice down?
00:40:22Oh, sorry.
00:40:25What, are you afraid that someone's going to hear about our perfect marriage?
00:40:35What are you hiding from me?
00:40:37Hey.
00:40:43Hey, you know that secret room that you didn't want me to find?
00:40:49I found it.
00:40:52Yeah.
00:40:57Hey, at least it's honest.
00:41:03Do you want to see it?
00:41:06Show me.
00:41:07Most people run.
00:41:36I'm not most people.
00:41:42So, this is what you're into?
00:41:47Among other things.
00:41:49And all of those specific requirements.
00:41:55We're meant to scare you off.
00:41:57I don't scare you so.
00:41:59Starting to get that.
00:42:00Show me.
00:42:05Show me.
00:42:08You sure?
00:42:09Are you?
00:43:12Lily, wait.
00:43:14Just go.
00:43:16Just go.
00:43:18Just go.
00:43:20Just go.
00:43:22Just go.
00:43:24Just go.
00:43:26Just go.
00:43:28Just go.
00:43:30Just go.
00:43:32Just go.
00:43:34Just go.
00:43:36Just go.
00:43:38Just go.
00:43:48Lily, I can explain.
00:43:50Can you?
00:43:52Guess the business can't wait.
00:43:54This whole thing is...
00:43:56Let me get this straight.
00:43:58You sleep with him and then you find a note from his ex.
00:44:00It's complicated.
00:44:02When isn't it with you?
00:44:04Huh.
00:44:05Look.
00:44:06Maybe it's time to admit this whole thing is just a little...
00:44:08What?
00:44:09A mistake?
00:44:10That you were right?
00:44:11Huh?
00:44:12Is that what you want to hear?
00:44:13No.
00:44:14I want you to be happy.
00:44:15And are you?
00:44:17I don't know what I am anymore.
00:44:19I mean he paid for mom's operation so that's cool but I...
00:44:21I know.
00:44:22And the worst part is I think I might actually be falling for...
00:44:26Lily?
00:44:29Is that what I mean?
00:44:30Is that what you're looking for?
00:44:32You're looking for mom's operation.
00:44:33You're looking for mom's operation so that's cool but...
00:44:35I know.
00:44:36And the worst part is I think I might actually be falling for it.
00:44:47Lily?
00:44:48Stand back.
00:44:50What?
00:44:50Stand back, Megan.
00:44:55Kitty, kitty, kitty.
00:44:58Please!
00:45:02Get down, motherfucker!
00:45:04Fucker!
00:45:05Oh, my God!
00:45:07Fuck you!
00:45:09Come on, let's go.
00:45:12Fuck.
00:45:13Fuck.
00:45:16What was that?
00:45:18Lessons with Jack.
00:45:19Jack taught you that?
00:45:21Yeah.
00:45:22Yeah.
00:45:23Dude's getting better by a minute.
00:45:25I know.
00:45:26Oh, man.
00:45:29You okay?
00:45:31Yeah.
00:45:33God, things are supposed to be so simple.
00:45:36Now what?
00:45:38I don't even know what's real anymore.
00:45:42Oh, honey.
00:45:43I'm kidding.
00:45:47He always keeps the ledger on his desk.
00:46:13Lauren, I've known you since college.
00:46:28How could you?
00:46:2911 months.
00:46:36Almost a year.
00:46:39I barely knew that I'd say anymore.
00:46:41Lily, I need to tell you something.
00:46:54I'm all ears.
00:46:56It's about the deal.
00:46:58It's about Warren, Vivian.
00:47:00Well, if it isn't the happy couple.
00:47:03Oh, great.
00:47:05The press.
00:47:05These aren't real.
00:47:17Real?
00:47:18Oh, my sister say they're very real.
00:47:20Story runs in 48 hours.
00:47:23Lily, this is what I was just about to tell you.
00:47:25I've been set up.
00:47:28Care to comment, Mrs. Thorne?
00:47:30You know, it's funny.
00:47:33I, for a minute, I really believed.
00:47:37Lily, wait.
00:47:40They're not real.
00:47:43Take a talk, Mr. Thorne.
00:47:55Lily, wait.
00:47:56They're not real.
00:48:00You have to believe me.
00:48:01Look, I believed you when you said that this was just a business deal.
00:48:05Like, I believed you when you said that Vivian was just a colleague.
00:48:10Like, I believed that last night actually meant something.
00:48:13It did.
00:48:15Only what happened between us was...
00:48:16The transaction.
00:48:19That's all any of this ever was.
00:48:21That's not true.
00:48:23And you know it.
00:48:24Do I?
00:48:25Because from where I'm standing,
00:48:29you got everything that you wanted.
00:48:31You got a wife when you needed one.
00:48:33And a body when you wanted one.
00:48:35But wait, that's not it.
00:48:36Tell me I'm wrong.
00:48:38Tell me that there's not something more going on here.
00:48:40With the business deal.
00:48:42And your inheritance.
00:48:44Anything more to explain?
00:48:52That's what I thought.
00:48:55You're a terrible person.
00:49:00If you leave now, you violate the contract.
00:49:03You get nothing.
00:49:05I don't care.
00:49:09I never cared about any of that.
00:49:10Hands up.
00:49:30Protect the face.
00:49:33No, don't.
00:49:34What?
00:49:35Gal?
00:49:37Nope.
00:49:46Warren?
00:49:47Finally, look.
00:49:48About the Morrison deal.
00:49:50It's off.
00:49:51What do you mean it's off?
00:49:52All of it.
00:49:54The deal.
00:49:55The inheritance.
00:49:56I don't want any of it.
00:49:57Have you lost your freaking mind?
00:49:59I mean, everything that we've worked for.
00:50:03Actually...
00:50:03I think I've found it.
00:50:06I don't want any of it.
00:50:08I don't want any of it.
00:50:09I don't want any of it.
00:50:09You can't just hide here
00:50:39forever. Watch me.
00:50:53Hey. What happened
00:50:55to the girl who would never back down?
00:50:58The one who quit
00:50:59her job because she didn't want to compromise?
00:51:02Played. Did she?
00:51:08If that's Jack,
00:51:09I'm sure that's just my
00:51:10oxigenarian neighbor who's a total
00:51:13drama queen. Watch.
00:51:15Gladys?
00:51:18Gladys,
00:51:19is that you?
00:51:20Do you need help with your phone?
00:51:28Sir.
00:51:30Coffee.
00:51:31I did some digging around like you asked, sir.
00:51:35You might want to see this.
00:51:36What am I looking at here?
00:51:42Wire transfers, shell companies,
00:51:45all leading back to Mr. Block.
00:51:48More.
00:51:49I knew it.
00:51:50You might want to see these too, sir.
00:51:52They'll illuminate things even more.
00:51:53Son of a bitch.
00:52:00He's trying to steal the inheritance.
00:52:01He sure is.
00:52:03All through a series of cleverly placed shell companies.
00:52:07Although I suspect Miss Chase's interests are not purely financial.
00:52:12Sir?
00:52:24They're threatening Lily and her sister.
00:52:26Then perhaps it's time we stop playing their game.
00:52:30Give me everything you can about Warren.
00:52:31Every meeting,
00:52:32every call.
00:52:32I already compiled, sir.
00:52:34I had a feeling we might need this.
00:52:35Sir,
00:52:36what about the inheritance?
00:52:37Some things are worth more than money.
00:52:53I'm going back, Megan.
00:52:54Megan?
00:52:54What about the inheritance?
00:53:24I got us under this, I can get us out of this, I can do this, I can do this.
00:53:50Your little cookie's on her way over to save her sister as we speak.
00:53:54And I wouldn't put money on how well that's gonna go.
00:53:58If anything happens to her, that's up to you.
00:54:03Sign the papers.
00:54:04And this all goes away.
00:54:07Like those photos of you and me from that reporter, suddenly went away.
00:54:15Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved, don't they?
00:54:19I always knew you were soft, but this, throwing away a billion dollar inheritance for some
00:54:25chef.
00:54:26He's not throwing it away, he's giving it to us.
00:54:31All we need is a signature, Jack.
00:54:35You care too much, Jackie boy.
00:54:38Always have.
00:54:42I think we might need to send a little message.
00:54:47Wait.
00:54:51Let me go, you psycho.
00:55:09Okay.
00:55:10Remember your training.
00:55:11Protect your face.
00:55:12Megan!
00:55:13Lenny!
00:55:14Welcome to the party, sweetheart.
00:55:15Come on.
00:55:16Come on.
00:55:17Come on.
00:55:18Come on.
00:55:19Of course it's a trap.
00:55:21The question is, what are you going to do about it?
00:55:22What are you going to do about it?
00:55:23What are you going to do about it?
00:55:24I've traced the video feed to the Starlight Motel, sir.
00:55:26Room 11.
00:55:272.
00:55:282.
00:55:293.
00:55:304.
00:55:312.
00:55:323.
00:55:333.
00:55:343.
00:55:354.
00:55:365.
00:55:375.
00:55:385.
00:55:396.
00:55:407.
00:55:417.
00:55:427.
00:55:438.
00:55:448.
00:55:458.
00:55:468.
00:55:478.
00:55:489.
00:55:498.
00:55:509.
00:55:51915.
00:55:52Lauren's called the police.
00:55:53Already done, but sir, they're at least 20 minutes out.
00:55:56She doesn't have 20 minutes.
00:56:04No, no, no, no, no.
00:56:07Lauren, she's there.
00:56:08Lily's there.
00:56:13Hold on, Lily.
00:56:14Hold on.
00:56:15Hold on.
00:56:21Leave her alone.
00:56:22Shut up.
00:56:23Get away from my wife.
00:56:24Well, well.
00:56:25A hero arrives.
00:56:26Don't do it, Jackie boy.
00:56:27I'm not some damsel in distress.
00:56:28That's my girl.
00:56:29Ah.
00:56:30Oh.
00:56:31I guess it is real love, huh?
00:56:43I guess it is real love, huh?
00:56:46That's my girl.
00:56:55Oh.
00:56:56I guess it is real love, huh?
00:57:08That's for my sister.
00:57:10You son of a bitch.
00:57:16Louie, about everything.
00:57:20The photos, Vivian.
00:57:23Now, seriously?
00:57:24I love you.
00:57:26Not for any inheritance, not for any deal.
00:57:30Just you.
00:57:35I know.
00:57:44You, stay right there.
00:57:47Come, copy.
00:57:59What the hell?
00:58:03This isn't...
00:58:04Possible.
00:58:08And I wouldn't put money on how well that's going to go.
00:58:10Sign the papers.
00:58:11Deep fakes really do hurt everyone involved.
00:58:14That proves nothing.
00:58:15I think it might prove something.
00:58:17Yeah, and those photos that you planted.
00:58:19Maybe use better AI next time.
00:58:21You can't?
00:58:22Yes, they can.
00:58:23And you two are under arrest.
00:58:27You'll regret this, Jack.
00:58:29The inheritance, the...
00:58:30Are nothing compared to what I almost lost.
00:58:33You could have had it all, Jack.
00:58:37I do.
00:58:37Yes, thank you.
00:58:46Thanks.
00:58:51Now, that's a story.
00:58:56Here to twist the knife?
00:58:58Actually, I'm here to get it right.
00:59:01Where did you...
00:59:03Lawrence sends his regards.
00:59:06Seems your butler is a little armchair investigative journalist.
00:59:10So, no scandal piece?
00:59:12Oh.
00:59:13There's definitely a scandal.
00:59:14But, not the one they wanted me to bite on.
00:59:21That's...
00:59:22Actually accurate.
00:59:23I'm a reporter.
00:59:25Truth is kind of my thing.
00:59:27Though, I must admit, I didn't see the secret martial arts skills coming.
00:59:32Yeah, neither did they.
00:59:34Story runs tomorrow.
00:59:37Catch you on the next scandal.
00:59:38It will be about the inheritance.
00:59:47Do you really think that I care about any of that now?
00:59:54Just take me home.
00:59:57Yes, dear.
01:00:07Sun's coming, huh?
01:00:08It must be a new record.
01:00:11It is for me.
01:00:12Oh.
01:00:14Any regrets?
01:00:16Only one.
01:00:19That I didn't get your chef's specials sooner.
01:00:21Could have saved us a lot of trouble.
01:00:23Yeah.
01:00:24Wow.
01:00:28Excuse me, sir.
01:00:29Miss Chen's article is out.
01:00:31How bad is it?
01:00:33Well, actually, sir, you might want to see it.
01:00:35She's included the last bit you wanted to put in.
01:00:38Jack Thorne announced plans.
01:00:52In a shocking turn of events, tech entrepreneur Jack Thorne announced his plans to transform his inherited fortune into the city's largest culinary grant program.
01:01:01I'm surprised.
01:01:05But your inheritance is gone.
01:01:09Well, the inheritance, yeah.
01:01:11But turns out selling a tech company can be quite profitable.
01:01:14You sold the company?
01:01:16Turns out some things are worth more than money.
01:01:17Heck, for sure.
01:01:18Okay.
01:01:19Good luck.
01:01:23Good luck.
01:01:26Good luck.
01:01:26Good luck.
01:01:27Good luck.
01:01:27I don't know.
01:01:34Perfect, Julie and Danny.
01:01:35Keep it thin, okay?
01:01:36Just like that.
01:01:52This looks good audio.
01:01:55And who said there's no such thing as a happily ever after?
01:01:59Suckers.
01:02:00Can I get you your usual, sir?
01:02:03Depends.
01:02:05Did my wife make it?
01:02:06The very same wife that you married for business?
01:02:09Best business decision I ever made.
01:02:17Hang on.
01:02:25Voila.
01:02:30I'm the best chef in town.
01:02:32You're only saying that because you're contractually obligated.
01:02:37I think that contract expired.
01:02:41Good thing I signed a new one.
01:02:42We are gathered here today.
01:02:51No more business deals this time.
01:02:53Just love.
01:02:55Okay.
01:02:56Because I have some terms of my own.
01:03:00First, you have to eat everything I cooked.
01:03:04Done.
01:03:04Second, no more locked rooms.
01:03:10Without me in it.
01:03:13Is that all?
01:03:15Third.
01:03:17You have to mean it this time.
01:03:19I meant it the first time.
01:03:21Just didn't know you.
01:03:22The rings?
01:03:25Actually.
01:03:31Is that...
01:03:32Something old.
01:03:34Something new.
01:03:35Something borrowed.
01:03:37Something...
01:03:38Not one.
01:03:40For better or worse.
01:03:50For real this time.
01:03:53You make us the bright.
01:03:54It's all.
01:03:55Okay.
01:04:10So.
01:04:11Are you ready for your honeymoon?
01:04:14What are you...
01:04:16Lauren, tell me back.
01:04:19Mrs. Thorne, are you trying to negotiate new business terms?
01:04:29I don't know.
01:04:31Mr. Thorne.
01:04:34Can you handle them?
01:04:36I thought this wasn't about business anymore.
01:04:40How about you just shut up and kiss your wife?
01:04:43Okay.
01:04:49I don't know.
01:04:50I don't know.
