00:00:00I hope you can get your head out of these architecture books, Hallie, and finally go out with me.
00:00:15Never in a million years, Dirk Diggle.
00:00:18I want your book back. Why don't you come and get it?
00:00:22Come on. Hey!
00:00:24Listen, don't fight this, okay? We will be together eventually.
00:00:27Get off me!
00:00:28Hey, don't fight me, okay?
00:00:36Ow! You bitch!
00:00:41She said she's not interested, bro!
00:00:44Craig Brody. Oh, you always gotta play the hero, huh?
00:00:47Yeah, go ahead. You're one demerit away from getting thrown out of this school.
00:00:51You know why you're book back so bad?
00:00:53Alright, you take it.
00:00:55Oh, no, no, this is gonna cost a fortune to replace.
00:01:11You can have mine.
00:01:13No, I couldn't.
00:01:15Yeah, you're good. I've seen you in class. You are brilliant.
00:01:20You're gonna get way more use out of this than I ever would.
00:01:23Do you want to grab lunch or keep studying?
00:01:38Um, yeah. Grab lunch.
00:01:42We're doing great.
00:01:49When did you two get back from the honeymoon?
00:01:51Just an hour ago.
00:01:52And this was waiting for me when I got back.
00:01:55I got in, Daddy!
00:01:56The Young Architects Program in Paris.
00:01:59It's a dream come true!
00:02:01And, when we get back, we're gonna rebuild this town.
00:02:08Together.
00:02:10Allie, give me some ice.
00:02:12Sure, Daddy.
00:02:17Are you two insane?
00:02:19Rebuild this town?
00:02:21This town is dying.
00:02:22And I want my daughter as far away from it as possible.
00:02:25Uh, but, sir, we have a plan.
00:02:29We even applied to adopt a child.
00:02:31Even more reason to end this now,
00:02:33before you keep her trapped here forever.
00:02:36I promised Allie's mother before she passed away
00:02:39that I would take care of our daughter.
00:02:41She deserves more than this two-bit town,
00:02:43and quite frankly, she deserves more than you.
00:02:46But, sir, I love her more than anything.
00:02:49I promise I will always take care of her.
00:02:52And you think that's important?
00:02:56She's going to be a world-class architect.
00:02:59You, you're...
00:03:00You're a local boy with a hammer.
00:03:03If you truly loved her,
00:03:04you'd let her go.
00:03:06Let her make something of herself!
00:03:09Deep down, you know I'm right.
00:03:11Here.
00:03:16This should be enough.
00:03:17I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:25I want her on that plane alone.
00:03:32For Mr. and Mrs. Craig Brody.
00:03:34We just got married.
00:03:36I got into an architecture program at Paris,
00:03:38and my new husband is coming with me.
00:03:41Actually, I'm not coming with you, Allie.
00:03:43What? Why?
00:03:46You think I want to just sit around
00:03:48while you study crumbling buildings?
00:03:51You're never going to be a real architect.
00:03:53The world is going to chew you up
00:03:55and spit you out,
00:03:56and it's going to be too pathetic
00:03:58for me to watch.
00:04:01Um, what, what?
00:04:03No, what about our plans?
00:04:06We were trying to start a family, Dan.
00:04:09No, the last person
00:04:10I'd want to start a family with
00:04:11is you, Allie.
00:04:13I want a divorce.
00:04:16No, no, but where is this coming from?
00:04:20Hi, Craig baby.
00:04:22Are you seeing Trista now?
00:04:25Yeah, just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:04:28Craig, no, what?
00:04:32Oh, my God.
00:04:33I thought you believed in me.
00:04:37Ma'am, boarding is closing.
00:04:38Are you coming or not?
00:04:42Ma'am, boarding is closing.
00:04:43Are you coming or not?
00:04:47Yes, but I'd like to change my ticket to one way.
00:04:50Miss Filtner!
00:04:58Miss Filtner,
00:04:59you were just recognized
00:05:00by Time Magazine's top CEO to watch,
00:05:03and your company is taking
00:05:04the New York architecture scene by storm.
00:05:06What's next for you?
00:05:08Um, I don't know.
00:05:09Taking over the world?
00:05:11Well, you and your boyfriend,
00:05:12billionaire politician Ned Vogel,
00:05:14are quite the power couple.
00:05:16He must be so proud.
00:05:17I'm not doing any of this
00:05:19for a man's approval.
00:05:19Well, word on the street is
00:05:21he's planning on proposing.
00:05:22You must be the luckiest girl in the world.
00:05:26The luckiest girl in the world?
00:05:28Right.
00:05:30Miss Filtner, I...
00:05:40Oh, my God.
00:05:46Allie Filtner,
00:05:47you are the most impressive woman
00:05:51I've ever met.
00:05:53You are my soulmate.
00:05:54Will you marry me?
00:06:10Will you marry me?
00:06:12How are you both here?
00:06:13I love you more than anything.
00:06:14You are my soulmate,
00:06:16and the best thing that's ever happened to me.
00:06:18Will you make me the luckiest man in the world
00:06:20and marry me?
00:06:22Allie?
00:06:23Allie?
00:06:24Oh, yeah.
00:06:25You're really leaving me to sweat here.
00:06:28And this suit is way too expensive for that.
00:06:30The most eligible bachelor in the country
00:06:32is proposing to me.
00:06:33So why am I thinking about Craig?
00:06:36He was a jerk and a liar,
00:06:37and I need to move on with my life.
00:06:43Of course I'll marry you.
00:06:44This ring must have cost a fortune.
00:06:55You're so lucky.
00:06:58When's the wedding?
00:06:59Ned wants to get married as soon as possible.
00:07:02Oh, you know,
00:07:03Hallie would love a hot tea.
00:07:07We have a problem.
00:07:09And that is?
00:07:09You're already married
00:07:12to a Craig Brody?
00:07:18He never signed the divorce papers?
00:07:23So you're still married?
00:07:25He was my high school sweetheart.
00:07:28We got married.
00:07:31But it didn't work out.
00:07:33I thought he had signed the divorce papers.
00:07:35You thought?
00:07:35Yes.
00:07:36Hallie, the election is in six weeks.
00:07:38This could ruin my campaign.
00:07:40Just imagine the headlines.
00:07:42Senator's fiancé.
00:07:43Already a wife?
00:07:44I will get him to sign the papers.
00:07:46You better.
00:07:48Or there won't be a future for us, Hallie.
00:07:52I gotta take this.
00:07:53It's my campaign manager.
00:07:55But this is important.
00:07:56Yeah, so is this.
00:08:01Clarence.
00:08:01What's going on, buddy?
00:08:02Talk to me.
00:08:03Motherfucker.
00:08:26I never thought I'd hear from you again, Hallie.
00:08:28Thanks for meeting me here, Trista.
00:08:36So, you really ended it with her.
00:08:39What does it look like?
00:08:42Yeah.
00:08:43She's really gone.
00:08:45Good.
00:08:46So, there's this romantic movie
00:08:48playing at Cinema 6.
00:08:50I thought me and you can go and watch
00:08:51and we can cuddle.
00:08:53We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:08:55My heart still belongs to Hallie.
00:08:59And it always will.
00:09:01I don't understand.
00:09:03Sometimes,
00:09:04when you truly love someone,
00:09:07you have to let them go.
00:09:10No matter how much it hurts.
00:09:15Thank you for your help.
00:09:16I hate you, Hallie, Brody!
00:09:31Your call has been forwarded to an automatic...
00:09:34Fine.
00:09:37You want me to come after you, Craig Brody?
00:09:41I will.
00:09:41Leave the bag.
00:09:52I'll be five minutes.
00:09:53I'll be five minutes.
00:10:11It's been seven years, Craig Brody, and you broke my heart.
00:10:16Somehow, the peace is still beat for you.
00:10:24Allie!
00:10:26What are you doing here, Allie?
00:10:29Well, someone never signed the divorce papers, so we're still married.
00:10:34Sign the papers, Craig.
00:10:36I can't sign them.
00:10:38You can't!
00:10:39It's complicated.
00:10:41What? Then let me make it simple.
00:10:44I'm supposed to get married to, God, the man of my dreams, in six weeks.
00:10:48Only, the funny thing is, my ex-husband never signed the divorce papers.
00:10:53You're engaged.
00:10:54Yes, Craig!
00:10:56Or did you think I would never move on from you?
00:10:58Sign the papers!
00:10:59I can't sign them.
00:11:01Why not?
00:11:02There's something I have to tell you.
00:11:04Mommy!
00:11:06Oh, oh, ah.
00:11:08I can't sign them.
00:11:14Why not?
00:11:16Because we have a daughter together.
00:11:18And I never told you.
00:11:24We're finally approved.
00:11:27After all this time.
00:11:29You even remember?
00:11:32You even remember?
00:11:37We're sorry.
00:11:38You have reached a number that has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:11:43Mommy!
00:11:44I'm sorry, but, um, I'm not your mommy.
00:11:48Yes, you are.
00:11:49You are my mommy.
00:11:51Tell her, Daddy.
00:11:52Uh...
00:11:53Uh, Craig?
00:11:54What is she talking about?
00:11:54Natalie, why don't you go grab the nests?
00:11:57Because I said we'd go catch bullfrogs, remember?
00:11:59Okay.
00:12:00Is Mommy coming with us?
00:12:01No, Mommy and Daddy needs to have a chat.
00:12:04All right?
00:12:04Okay, Daddy.
00:12:08You want to tell me what the hell is going on?
00:12:13Well...
00:12:14Allie didn't come here to get back together.
00:12:19She came here to divorce me.
00:12:21And I have to let her move on.
00:12:22I tracked you down in the library in New York.
00:12:32And you were there with another guy.
00:12:35You looked happy.
00:12:37You looked free.
00:12:50Well?
00:12:50Um, you're fine.
00:12:51You know, kids.
00:12:54Active imagination.
00:12:56She thinks every woman who comes on the farm is her mom.
00:12:59All right, listen, just leave the papers on the counter and I'll sign them.
00:13:03I have a flight back to New York in three hours, and I am not leaving here without these papers signed.
00:13:07Well, I'm not signing them until I read them over first.
00:13:11Why, Craig?
00:13:13It's not like you have anything that I want.
00:13:14What do you have that I could possibly want?
00:13:19I'm ready, Daddy.
00:13:20Okay, um, I promise I'll sign them.
00:13:24Okay?
00:13:24I know better than to trust your promises, Craig.
00:13:27I got one for you too, Mommy.
00:13:28Uh...
00:13:28Oh, yeah, so Miss Allie is going back to New York, so it's just going to be you and me and get up.
00:13:34Like always.
00:13:35Okay.
00:13:37I am sorry.
00:13:38Just leave them in the living room.
00:13:40I'll sign them.
00:13:40Let's go.
00:13:40Come on.
00:13:40Just leave them in the living room.
00:14:10No cell service still.
00:14:28Guess I am walking.
00:14:33Mommy, help.
00:14:34Daddy's hurt.
00:14:38What happened?
00:14:39Daddy got bit by a big snake.
00:14:41Yeah.
00:14:43Oh.
00:14:45Corporate?
00:14:45Mm-hmm.
00:14:51Daddy.
00:14:53You still remember how to dry out snake venom?
00:14:55Well, I haven't forgotten everything you taught me, Craig Brody.
00:15:03Here, keep the pressure on.
00:15:06Okay.
00:15:06Your daddy will be fine.
00:15:10I promise.
00:15:18Hold still.
00:15:21Okay.
00:15:23Keep the pressure on.
00:15:31So, your daughter.
00:15:33Mm-hmm.
00:15:34She looks about...
00:15:35Seven years old.
00:15:39So, she's Trista's.
00:15:41No.
00:15:42She's yours.
00:15:44She's yours.
00:15:46So, if she's not Trista's, how many other women were you sleeping with while we were together?
00:15:51I don't care if you were with the entire town.
00:15:55Just, um, sign the papers, Craig, and we can put this sham of marriage behind us.
00:15:59You've got to be kidding me.
00:16:01Where did they go?
00:16:03Daddy's had this photo in his nightstand for seven years, which means he still loves her.
00:16:08And if they loved each other once, they can love each other again.
00:16:12They just need another chance.
00:16:14Where are the divorce papers?
00:16:27No.
00:16:28Oh.
00:16:32I will check into the Picoi Inn for tonight.
00:16:40Oh.
00:16:40And we can look for the divorce papers tomorrow.
00:16:43The Picoi closed years ago.
00:16:45There was always your father's.
00:16:47That's, um, not an option.
00:16:50The way she said that, that something happened between her and her father.
00:16:54Well, unless you want to stay outside, I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:04I guess you're stuck here.
00:17:08Fine.
00:17:09But I'm not staying in your room.
00:17:11Wouldn't dream of it.
00:17:14You can stay in my room with me and Lucy.
00:17:17There you go.
00:17:18There you go.
00:17:18Wow, I love your room.
00:17:29Thanks.
00:17:30My daddy helped me decorate it.
00:17:41Okay, look.
00:17:45Oh my God.
00:17:46I know it hasn't been easy trying to start a family, but one day, the adoption will go through.
00:17:55We're going to have that baby, and you will be the most amazing.
00:17:59Good night, sweetheart.
00:18:27That logo.
00:18:33It's from the adoption agency.
00:18:36Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:38That logo.
00:18:39It's from the adoption agency.
00:18:42Is Natalie my daughter?
00:18:50I guess I'm just remembering things wrong.
00:18:52I guess, it's from the evolution of our children and the mothers.
00:19:04It's from the adoption agency.
00:19:05It's from the adoption agency.
00:19:11No doubt.
00:19:12I don't know.
00:19:42There's nothing I haven't seen before.
00:19:45Daddy?
00:19:46Oh, God.
00:19:50Do you know where McHaley went?
00:19:52Uh, no. I haven't seen her.
00:19:55Do you think she left us, Daddy?
00:19:57You know what? Just give me five minutes and I'll help you look, okay, sweetie?
00:20:02Okay, Daddy.
00:20:07Ow!
00:20:08Oh, you're gone.
00:20:12Oh, you're gone.
00:20:26Greg, I'm engaged to someone else.
00:20:30You're also married to me.
00:20:33Oh, could this give any of us here?
00:20:43I should go.
00:20:45Hey.
00:20:59Hey.
00:21:01Hey.
00:21:02So I found the divorce papers.
00:21:05Natalie!
00:21:07Natalie!
00:21:08I think she wants to keep us married.
00:21:11Would that be such a bad thing?
00:21:15Hello! I brought scones!
00:21:21What the hell are you doing here?
00:21:28Craig and Trista are still together?
00:21:30I mean...
00:21:31Hi, baby.
00:21:33I hope I'm not interrupting anything.
00:21:35What a pleasant surprise, Holly.
00:21:38Hi.
00:21:39Uh, excuse me.
00:21:40What the fuck are you doing here?
00:21:41It's none of your business.
00:21:42Actually, where Craig's concerned, it is.
00:21:43So...
00:21:44You and Craig are still together?
00:21:45We're not going anywhere together, Trista.
00:21:46My heart still belongs to Hallie, and it always will.
00:21:50Still together?
00:21:52My heart still belongs to Hallie, and it always will.
00:22:07Still together?
00:22:08Why, of course we're still together.
00:22:10We've been inseparable.
00:22:11Ever since that day at the airport.
00:22:13The day that Craig chose me over you.
00:22:16Won't tell me you've forgotten.
00:22:18How could I?
00:22:21It was the worst day of my life.
00:22:24Oh, sorry to hear that.
00:22:26Because it was a pretty good day for me.
00:22:28I'm sure it was.
00:22:30Listen, if you're here to win Craigbat, it's too late.
00:22:33Because I'm pretty sure he's planning on proposing to me.
00:22:36Any day now.
00:22:37So I need you to get your skinny little ass out of my town.
00:22:40Okay?
00:22:42Come here.
00:22:43Take a pastry for the bread.
00:22:45I insist.
00:22:48Eat it.
00:22:51Oh my god.
00:22:52Because it's the closest you'll get to tasting Craig's mouth ever again.
00:22:58Oh my god!
00:23:00You New York bitch!
00:23:03Oh my god!
00:23:09You think you can just waltz back in here and pick up where you left off?
00:23:14Craig will always choose me over you.
00:23:18What the hell is going on?
00:23:22Help!
00:23:23Help!
00:23:24Help my ankle!
00:23:25Help my ankle!
00:23:26That crazy bitch!
00:23:28Like I said, he will always choose me over you.
00:23:33Are you okay?
00:23:35Why are you asking her?
00:23:37I'm the one who's injured.
00:23:39All I did was offer her a scone and then she called it dog food and then she kicked me.
00:23:49Aw.
00:23:50Poor little thing.
00:23:51You got, you got scone all over you.
00:23:53It's okay Hallie.
00:23:54I forgive you.
00:23:55Even if you did break my leg.
00:23:57I didn't touch you.
00:23:58I need to put your petty jealousy aside.
00:24:01Craig divorced you for a reason.
00:24:03I'm-
00:24:04Coming back here to diaper him back is just...
00:24:07a headache.
00:24:08Actually, I didn't divorce Hallie.
00:24:11She's still my wife.
00:24:13What?
00:24:16Hallie is still my wife.
00:24:18Which means you just insulted her in her own house.
00:24:21So please leave Trista.
00:24:24Wait baby, this is just one big misunderstanding.
00:24:27You heard my daddy get out of our house before we call the cops.
00:24:33Oh my god, ew.
00:24:34What is that disgusting creature?
00:24:36I'm gonna vomit.
00:24:38Good job Lucy.
00:24:40You know what, I should go.
00:24:42Hallie.
00:24:43It was nice meeting you Natalie.
00:24:50I'm sorry.
00:24:57Lulu.
00:24:58Call me back.
00:25:01Hallie.
00:25:02No, I never understood why you left me for Trista.
00:25:05Of all people.
00:25:06You knew I couldn't stand her.
00:25:08That's why I didn't.
00:25:10Because I knew it would hurt me most.
00:25:12Seeing her again, it just reminded me of the worst day of my life.
00:25:19Hallie.
00:25:21There's something I need to tell you about Trista.
00:25:26I don't want to talk about Trista anymore, okay?
00:25:28I have to take this.
00:25:29Lulu.
00:25:30Can you email me another copy of the divorce papers ASAP?
00:25:33Another copy?
00:25:34What happened to the originals?
00:25:36It's a long story.
00:25:40Can you do it?
00:25:41It's Saturday.
00:25:42I...
00:25:43City Hall's closed until Monday.
00:25:45You're gonna need a certified copy.
00:25:47I think you're gonna have to stay the weekend there, boss.
00:25:49I hope that's not a big problem.
00:25:51No.
00:25:52Uh, of course not.
00:25:54Well, looks like I am staying until Monday.
00:25:57Until I can get a new copy of the divorce papers.
00:26:00I don't have anything.
00:26:02Not a change of clothes, not even a toothbrush.
00:26:04I can just drive you to the store.
00:26:06Okay.
00:26:07Okay.
00:26:08Okay.
00:26:09Hey, Miss Hallie is staying.
00:26:11No, two, three.
00:26:12No, two, three.
00:26:14No, two, three.
00:26:15No, two, three.
00:26:16No, one, two, three.
00:26:17No.
00:26:18No, two, three.
00:26:19Okay.
00:26:25Stop looking at him like that, Hallie.
00:26:30Ali, you can't have feelings for him, even if he is your husband.
00:26:43I can't believe how bad the town looks.
00:26:48When the factory closed, half the sores went with it.
00:26:52Well, at least Martha's Diner's still here.
00:26:54Martha May makes the best burgers in the world.
00:26:58Yeah.
00:26:58Remember our crazy dream?
00:27:02You know, fix this place up?
00:27:03Of course I do.
00:27:05So?
00:27:06You probably have big plans after graduation.
00:27:11I'm applying to an architecture program in Paris.
00:27:14I doubt I'll get it, though.
00:27:15It's really competitive.
00:27:17Of course you will.
00:27:18I mean, they'd be fools not to take you.
00:27:21You think so?
00:27:22Oh, yeah, I know so.
00:27:25Well, after that, I want to come back here.
00:27:26Who takes this town up?
00:27:28I am pretty good with a hammer.
00:27:31I need an assistant.
00:27:32How about a partner?
00:27:34Oh.
00:27:38Sounds perfect.
00:27:40Man, I could really go for a burger right now.
00:27:43I have an idea.
00:27:47Where are you taking me, Craig Brody?
00:27:52A picnic.
00:27:54Just like old times.
00:27:56Allow me.
00:27:58Oh.
00:27:59I hate you, Hallie.
00:28:11Wow, it's just like in high school.
00:28:14Still looks the same, doesn't it?
00:28:17And feels the same.
00:28:18I love you, Hallie Biltner.
00:28:22I want you to know I will never, ever hurt you.
00:28:27I'm so sorry for hurting you, Hallie.
00:28:32Natalie and I were supposed to eat these on our fishing trip.
00:28:37I don't think she'll forgive me.
00:28:42Triangles.
00:28:42Just the way you tell me.
00:28:44It's Natalie's favorite way to eat them, too.
00:28:47Oh, I have to take this.
00:28:50Hey.
00:28:51Hallie.
00:28:52The press wants to know why we haven't been seen together.
00:28:54They think we broke up.
00:28:56You need to get back here right now.
00:29:01I can't yet.
00:29:03I need to get new divorce papers in city halls closed until Monday.
00:29:07New divorce papers?
00:29:09What?
00:29:09Your location says you're at your old high school.
00:29:12What the hell is going on?
00:29:13It's complicated.
00:29:17No, it is not complicated.
00:29:19Okay, look.
00:29:21I am pulling in a favor from the governor.
00:29:23We're going to get those papers expedited,
00:29:25and we are going to force that husband of yours into signing them if we have to.
00:29:29I need you on the next flight back in an hour.
00:29:32It's not going to be a problem, is it?
00:29:39Of course not.
00:29:43I have to go.
00:29:47You wouldn't mind taking me to the airport, would you?
00:29:50Of course not.
00:29:51Just sign the papers when you get them, Craig.
00:30:03Okay?
00:30:03It's the least you can do.
00:30:05This is my last chance to tell her the truth.
00:30:08Well, goodbye, I guess.
00:30:13I... I...
00:30:14No, Craig.
00:30:15Oh, I'm done waiting.
00:30:18It's time for me to move on.
00:30:22Hmm.
00:30:24Hello?
00:30:26What?
00:30:27Are you sure?
00:30:28Okay.
00:30:30Okay.
00:30:30Okay.
00:30:31Um...
00:30:31Um, it's...
00:30:33My father.
00:30:34He's...
00:30:35Had a stroke.
00:30:35He's at the community hospital.
00:30:37Oh, come on.
00:30:37I'll...
00:30:38I'll drive you.
00:30:41Unless you're getting on that flight.
00:30:43No, uh...
00:30:44No, of course not.
00:30:45Okay, good, good, good.
00:30:46Come on.
00:30:49What's going on?
00:30:51The neighbor found him this morning.
00:30:52On the lawn.
00:30:54Allie!
00:30:54I didn't expect to see you here.
00:30:56Is he going to be okay?
00:30:58We're doing the best we can, but it's difficult, considering his condition.
00:31:02His condition?
00:31:04Your father is dying, Allie.
00:31:06Of kidney failure.
00:31:10How long does he have?
00:31:12A couple weeks.
00:31:14Maybe a month.
00:31:15I hope we're planning on sticking around this time.
00:31:19Excuse me.
00:31:24I had no idea.
00:31:26You didn't?
00:31:27When's the last time you saw him?
00:31:32Seven years ago.
00:31:39Allie.
00:31:40Craig's divorcing me.
00:31:42He's been cheating on me.
00:31:44I knew that bastard wasn't good enough for you.
00:31:47But at least you found out before he followed you to Paris.
00:31:50No, I'm not going to Paris.
00:31:52I can't get on that plane.
00:31:54What?
00:31:56Craig was right.
00:31:57I'm not...
00:31:58I'm not a real architect.
00:32:00Everyone's going to laugh at me.
00:32:01You get on that plane, Allie.
00:32:03But, Daddy, I...
00:32:05If you come back now, you'll be a laughing stock.
00:32:08You'll be a divorced loser.
00:32:10No one will want you.
00:32:11Not Craig.
00:32:13Not even me.
00:32:14Daddy.
00:32:16Daddy?
00:32:17You get on that plane, Allie.
00:32:20I never want to see you again.
00:32:22You are a disgrace.
00:32:33Nobody's ever been so mean to me.
00:32:34Except you, Ennis.
00:32:40God, it's like the two of you were in cahoots.
00:32:43Should I tell her that we were?
00:32:47If I tell her the truth,
00:32:49she'll never forgive her dying father.
00:32:52Didn't work out for the best, though.
00:32:55I mean, look at the life you've built for yourself.
00:32:57You deserve more than this small town.
00:33:01You and my father certainly made it easy to leave.
00:33:03What's going on?
00:33:08Power grid has been happening for weeks.
00:33:15Natalie?
00:33:16Daddy.
00:33:17I'm scared.
00:33:19It's dark and there's someone outside.
00:33:21I'll be right there.
00:33:22Keep the doors locked.
00:33:24I have to go.
00:33:25I'm coming with you.
00:33:26Allie, this isn't something that...
00:33:27I'm coming with you.
00:33:29Okay, okay, come on.
00:33:32Natalie?
00:33:33Oh, my God.
00:33:35Oh, my God.
00:33:36Oh, my God.
00:33:37Thank God.
00:33:40I was so scared.
00:33:43It's okay.
00:33:44It's okay.
00:33:44You're okay.
00:33:46It must have been raccoons.
00:33:48Broken through the window.
00:33:50Probably those scones, huh?
00:33:52Yeah.
00:33:53I'm so sorry for leaving you alone for so long.
00:33:56Oh, it's my fault.
00:33:57No, no, no, no, no.
00:33:58I was happy to help, but, um...
00:34:00I think you missed your flight.
00:34:04So you're saying we can watch a movie together?
00:34:06I guess we can.
00:34:11I guess we can.
00:34:15Miss Haley, come closer.
00:34:21Daddy, come closer.
00:34:22Isn't this great?
00:34:27Just the three of us.
00:34:32This blanket always makes my daddy fall asleep.
00:34:34Oh, my God.
00:35:03I love you, Allie Brody.
00:35:14Why does this feel so right?
00:35:19He's still my husband,
00:35:21and I know every freckle on his body.
00:35:24But, no.
00:35:26I'm divorcing him.
00:35:28And marrying someone else.
00:35:33Oh, my God.
00:35:38Oh, my God.
00:35:42Allie.
00:35:46Mommy and Daddy, I made breakfast.
00:35:48Do you like it?
00:35:57I made pancakes.
00:35:59They are excellent.
00:36:01It's weird.
00:36:02Mm-hmm.
00:36:03This is what families do.
00:36:05They eat breakfast together.
00:36:10What's up?
00:36:11There's some stupid birthday invitation.
00:36:19All the kids from school will be there,
00:36:21but I'm not going.
00:36:22Why not?
00:36:23Because everyone always says,
00:36:26if I had a mom,
00:36:27she'd help me pick up better gifts.
00:36:30And they say I'm just a momless loser.
00:36:33You are not a momless loser, Natalie.
00:36:36And don't let anyone make you feel less than you are.
00:36:38I grew up with that mom, too, you know.
00:36:45And it was hard.
00:36:47But I was always able to rely on my dad.
00:36:51Just like you can.
00:36:55And by the way,
00:36:57your dad is worth a thousand movies.
00:37:00That's true.
00:37:01She checked.
00:37:03So go to that party with your head held high.
00:37:07No one can take your power from you
00:37:08unless you let them.
00:37:13Okay, Miss Allie.
00:37:14I'll go to the party.
00:37:15Thanks.
00:37:22Oh, no.
00:37:25Excuse me.
00:37:26I have to take this.
00:37:33I see you got my messages.
00:37:36Delete that photo, Trista.
00:37:37Oh, which one?
00:37:39Because I have plenty.
00:37:43What's the problem?
00:37:44A rich fiancé isn't enough for you,
00:37:46so you have to come back and seduce your husband, too.
00:37:49I didn't come here to get back with Craig, Trista.
00:37:51I came here to divorce him.
00:37:53Really?
00:37:55Then prove it.
00:37:56Walk away now and leave this town for good.
00:37:59Otherwise,
00:38:01these photos
00:38:02will go to the senator.
00:38:03I could ruin you,
00:38:07Hallie.
00:38:08So don't mess with my life,
00:38:10and I won't mess with yours.
00:38:18Hey.
00:38:20Everything okay?
00:38:21Fine.
00:38:23Who are you talking to?
00:38:24Oh, uh, my, uh,
00:38:26fiancé's lawyer.
00:38:27He'll be by with new divorce papers.
00:38:29Um, I have to go.
00:38:32Right now?
00:38:33Yes.
00:38:34I'm sorry, but yes.
00:38:36Can you call me a cab?
00:38:37Hallie.
00:38:37Call me a cab.
00:38:38Craig.
00:38:39Okay.
00:38:43Our plan didn't work, Lucy.
00:38:45I guess Mommy isn't in love with Daddy after all.
00:38:47Martha May?
00:38:58Hallie Builder,
00:39:00as I live and breathe!
00:39:01Oh!
00:39:02Oh, how are you so skinny?
00:39:04I thought that city of yours
00:39:05had a restaurant on every block.
00:39:07Oh, well, they do,
00:39:08but none of them make a burger
00:39:09as good as you do.
00:39:11Oh, well, that's nice to know
00:39:12I'll be remembered fondly, at least.
00:39:15What?
00:39:15Don't tell me you're shutting down.
00:39:16Yeah, I don't have a choice.
00:39:18Rent's gone up,
00:39:19and I can't afford the place anymore.
00:39:21No.
00:39:21No, there must be something I can do.
00:39:24Mayor Diggle, shut it down.
00:39:27Mayor Diggle.
00:39:31Dirk, I can't believe
00:39:34you're shutting down Martha's Diner.
00:39:35It's a town institution.
00:39:37Is it?
00:39:37Or are you just upset about it
00:39:39because you and your boyfriend, Craig,
00:39:41used to go there?
00:39:42This isn't high school anymore, Dirk,
00:39:44and this isn't a game.
00:39:45What is it going to take
00:39:47for you to leave the diner alone?
00:39:49Well, you know I've always liked you,
00:39:52so how about you and me
00:39:55handle this privately?
00:39:57I'll pay you 12 months' rent
00:39:59in advance.
00:40:02Listen, you think I want your money?
00:40:04No.
00:40:05I had something more interesting in mind.
00:40:07You!
00:40:08You're disgusting!
00:40:08Listen, Craig was here to save you last time,
00:40:13but he's not here now.
00:40:14Looks like you're all alone, Hallie.
00:40:16No!
00:40:17Let go of my wallet!
00:40:19Well, you two are under arrest
00:40:29for assaulting the mayor.
00:40:33You know the drill.
00:40:35This is just like how I used to arrest you
00:40:37when you was back in high school.
00:40:38You're a little girl.
00:40:46Wife, huh?
00:40:48Some habits are hard to break.
00:40:52God, this is so not funny.
00:40:54Ned is running for senator.
00:40:56What will this look like if anyone finds out?
00:40:58And who's going to check a county jail
00:41:00in a nowhere town?
00:41:02I should have never come back here.
00:41:03I should have sent my assistant.
00:41:05I should have hired a lawyer!
00:41:06Then why didn't you?
00:41:09I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:13I think you wanted to see me.
00:41:15In your dreams,
00:41:16I have moved on to bigger and better things.
00:41:19Yeah, I heard about that.
00:41:20That neighborhood you shut down
00:41:22put 6,000 people out of work.
00:41:24And the complex I built brought back 10,000 jobs.
00:41:28Yeah, for Ivy Leaguers and corporate types.
00:41:31What about the blue collars?
00:41:33What about the people you came from?
00:41:35I've tried to forget where I came from.
00:41:38Okay, isn't that what you wanted
00:41:39when you told me I don't belong here?
00:41:41I shouldn't have said that.
00:41:42No, you were right.
00:41:44I'm not the same girl you married.
00:41:47I've built a life, a career.
00:41:51I should thank you
00:41:52because I couldn't have done it without you.
00:41:54All right, lovebirds.
00:41:56Your bail's been posted.
00:41:58You're free to go.
00:42:00Bail? By who?
00:42:03Hey, Howls.
00:42:07Ned!
00:42:12Hey, Howls.
00:42:14Ned.
00:42:14So, you must be Craig Brody.
00:42:21The man who couldn't even sign a simple divorce paper.
00:42:24And you must be Ned Vogel.
00:42:26The man who thinks money can solve everything.
00:42:29Yeah, well, my money got you out of jail, didn't it?
00:42:32I didn't ask to be bailed out.
00:42:34Hmm.
00:42:35Well, you can think of it as the government working for you.
00:42:38Well, you can shove your government up your silver spoon.
00:42:41Guys, please, stop.
00:42:43No, you're right.
00:42:44I'm not here to argue with a man who's holding on to the past.
00:42:51We got the divorce papers expedited.
00:42:53So, you can sign them, Craig.
00:42:57This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:00Can I really divorce Hallie without her knowing about her own daughter?
00:43:07Sign the papers.
00:43:09Or we take you to court.
00:43:12But I gotta tell you, my lawyer's a shark.
00:43:15Say something, Hallie.
00:43:18Say something to stop this.
00:43:21Sign the papers, Craig.
00:43:24Let me go.
00:43:25It's the least you can do.
00:43:34Wonderful.
00:43:35We will get these filed at the town hall.
00:43:38And you will be divorced in an hour.
00:43:40This nonsense has gone on long enough.
00:43:45It's time for you to finally move on with your life, Hallie.
00:43:51Well, are you coming?
00:43:54Yes, of course.
00:43:57Bye.
00:43:58Bye.
00:43:58That is who she ended up with.
00:44:07I always thought it'd be you.
00:44:10You know, sometimes things don't work out the way we want them to.
00:44:16Hallie, what were you thinking?
00:44:18Jail, are you trying to ruin my campaign?
00:44:22No.
00:44:23No, this has nothing to do with you.
00:44:25You are going to be my wife.
00:44:29Everything you do reflects on me.
00:44:33Now, are there any other skeletons I should know about?
00:44:37No.
00:44:46Nothing.
00:44:47Nothing.
00:44:51This town is just how you described it.
00:44:54Low-class, run-down, depressing.
00:45:00It isn't that bad.
00:45:03Those are your words, Hallie.
00:45:05What's gotten into you?
00:45:06I don't know.
00:45:07Um, just being back here.
00:45:12Should I remind you how lucky you are to have gotten out?
00:45:15Class signature, Ms. Bilner.
00:45:19And you'll be free and clear to be the wife of a senator.
00:45:31Okay.
00:45:33That's a no.
00:45:37Fair wages, fair pay.
00:45:39We owe you all to the contract today.
00:45:41Let us through.
00:45:42No one gets in or out today.
00:45:43Town workers on strike.
00:45:45We need to get these filed.
00:45:47We have a flight to catch in 30 minutes.
00:45:50Sorry, we can't do it.
00:45:55There you are, Mommy.
00:45:59Mommy?
00:46:03I knew you wanted to leave without me, Mommy.
00:46:06Mommy, you two have a kid together?
00:46:08No, no, no, no.
00:46:09Of course not.
00:46:10Natalie, come on.
00:46:11Miss Hallie has to go.
00:46:12No, no!
00:46:13I'm so sorry.
00:46:16I hate you.
00:46:17I hate both of you.
00:46:20Another reason why I'm glad I don't have kids.
00:46:23Look, we need to get these signed.
00:46:25What's it going to cost me to make it happen?
00:46:26Is this a city senate official bribing a city employee?
00:46:33You see, I have my fair share of scandals, but this is bad.
00:46:39I see you got a fancy new fiancee.
00:46:44What happened to your husband?
00:46:47He's still locked away in jail.
00:46:49I think he means soon-to-be ex-husband.
00:46:51Ah, looks like your father got what he always wanted.
00:46:55You and Craig finally divorced.
00:46:57What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:02What do you mean what my father wanted?
00:47:06Wait, man.
00:47:07Craig never told you-
00:47:07Fair, wait, it's fair, fair.
00:47:09Hey!
00:47:09Keep it down, all right?
00:47:11Or I will write you up for a noise violation.
00:47:13How about you pay us what we're owed and not waste our tax dollars on fancy new fire trucks
00:47:19and a cocktail party?
00:47:21Mayor Sullivan never would have done anything.
00:47:23All right, listen.
00:47:24Mayor Sullivan is not in charge anymore.
00:47:26I am, all right?
00:47:28So please just keep it down.
00:47:30Fair wait is fair pay.
00:47:32All right, keep it down.
00:47:32Keep it down.
00:47:33Fair wait is fair pay.
00:47:36I'll sign that paper for you.
00:47:38Yeah.
00:47:39All right, good.
00:47:42Where's the rest of it?
00:47:43What?
00:47:43Well, I can't sign this without a custody agreement.
00:47:46A custody agreement?
00:47:47Sure, this child is just as much Hallie's as she is, Craig's.
00:47:54You lied to me.
00:47:56No, no, no, I didn't know, I swear.
00:48:00How is this even possible?
00:48:02Well, she's adopted.
00:48:03I mean, I did the paperwork myself.
00:48:04You listed as parent number one.
00:48:06Geez, I would have thought he would have told you about it by now.
00:48:09This is not good.
00:48:11A husband is one thing, but a child?
00:48:13If this gets out, I am sunk.
00:48:15Right.
00:48:15A messy custody battle never sits well with voters.
00:48:18Who said anything about a custody agreement?
00:48:21Hallie doesn't even want the kid, right, Hallie?
00:48:23I mean, you barely even know the child.
00:48:25She'll give up custody right now.
00:48:26Where do we sign?
00:48:27It's not that simple.
00:48:28In a case like this, when a child's involved, both parties have to attend a parenting class.
00:48:33The next one starts tomorrow.
00:48:35Tomorrow?
00:48:35Tomorrow, I do not have time for this.
00:48:39I have to get back to New York before the press starts asking questions.
00:48:44Go.
00:48:45Go, I'll get this sorted out.
00:48:47Fine.
00:48:48Take care of this child.
00:48:50End this marriage.
00:48:51Quickly and quietly.
00:48:53How come you never told me that Natalie is my daughter?
00:49:06Natalie.
00:49:07No!
00:49:07You were just going to let me divorce you, never knowing that Natalie is my daughter?
00:49:12Shh.
00:49:12The adoption went through after you left.
00:49:23You didn't think I deserved to know?
00:49:26You could have called, written anything!
00:49:29I tried.
00:49:30What?
00:49:34And you were there with another guy.
00:49:37You looked happy.
00:49:39You looked free.
00:49:39It seems you don't need me and Natalie anymore.
00:49:43And that's why you never told me that I had a daughter?
00:49:48You looked like you'd moved on.
00:49:52Moved on?
00:49:53It took me years to move on.
00:49:58And honestly,
00:49:59I don't know if I ever have.
00:50:04Forget it.
00:50:06It doesn't matter now anyway.
00:50:09Here.
00:50:14Parenting class.
00:50:17We need to take it in order to get divorced.
00:50:20Custody.
00:50:22Co-parenting.
00:50:24Legally, Natalie is just as much mine as she is yours.
00:50:27You haven't spent any time with her.
00:50:30You didn't raise her.
00:50:31I know.
00:50:32And whose fault is that?
00:50:35Class is at 8am.
00:50:37Don't be late.
00:50:37I knew Miss Haley was my mommy.
00:50:49Dad?
00:50:54Maya, what's going on?
00:50:55Daddy!
00:51:05He's okay.
00:51:06He's stabilized.
00:51:08Your old man's a fighter, Holly.
00:51:11And clearly he's fighting to see you again.
00:51:14No fighting to see me?
00:51:16No, if anything.
00:51:18He'd be pissed to know I'm back.
00:51:20My dad hates me.
00:51:21That's not possible.
00:51:23Holly, he talks about you all the time.
00:51:26He does?
00:51:27Yep.
00:51:28Every Monday and Thursday at dialysis.
00:51:31That's how I know about your fancy job.
00:51:34And your fancy boyfriend.
00:51:36None of this makes any sense.
00:51:39Holly, are you okay?
00:51:42Yeah, today's just been...
00:51:44A lot.
00:51:45Maya, did you know that Natalie's my daughter?
00:51:54My shift ends in five minutes.
00:51:57Do you want to grab a drink?
00:52:00Craig has never revealed who Natalie's mother was.
00:52:03But he's never been with anyone since you, so we figured...
00:52:07Wait a second.
00:52:08He's never been with anyone since me.
00:52:11No, he left me for Trista.
00:52:13I saw him.
00:52:14Trista.
00:52:15She's been after him for years, sure.
00:52:17But he'd never touch her with a ten-foot pole.
00:52:19I don't understand.
00:52:21Just send me the divorce papers, okay?
00:52:24Craig!
00:52:26Oh my God.
00:52:36Excuse me, Maya.
00:52:38I need to get to the bottom of this.
00:52:39Okay.
00:52:44Good to see you, Hallie.
00:52:50I know the truth.
00:52:52You were never with Trista.
00:52:54So tell me the truth about everything.
00:52:57Right now.
00:53:03Play me for it.
00:53:05If you win,
00:53:06I'll tell you.
00:53:08Looks like big city living has indulged your A-Metal.
00:53:19No.
00:53:20If anything.
00:53:21It made me sharper.
00:53:28You two are playing like your lives depend on it.
00:53:30Well, kind of do.
00:53:44Oops.
00:53:44If you do that again,
00:53:50I might just have to take you right here on the table.
00:53:54Too bad I'm engaged.
00:53:58What are you playing at, Hallie?
00:54:00I deserve the truth.
00:54:01Why?
00:54:03You came here to divorce me.
00:54:05What good would the truth do?
00:54:07I'll be the one to decide that.
00:54:08Now.
00:54:22Pass up.
00:54:31You scratched.
00:54:35I win.
00:54:37Thank you, ladies.
00:54:40But I gotta go.
00:54:41I have an early start.
00:54:49Maybe I can find some clues in my father's room.
00:54:54Why didn't my father tell me he was sick?
00:54:57And why won't anyone just tell me the truth?
00:55:03Oh my God.
00:55:07This will always belong to Hallie.
00:55:13And so do my heart.
00:55:15What is this doing here?
00:55:23What was this doing in my father's bedroom?
00:55:25Uh, Hallie.
00:55:26Tell me.
00:55:27Why was this in my father's room?
00:55:31Don't tell me you're about to propose, Hallie.
00:55:33What are you doing here?
00:55:36Surprise.
00:55:37I'm teaching the course.
00:55:40It's time for the two of you to get divorced.
00:55:44I mean, this is what you both want, right?
00:55:48Of course.
00:55:49Hallie, you are Natalie's mother after all.
00:55:53Yes, but she doesn't know it yet.
00:55:55So please keep this between us.
00:55:57I will always do you a favor, Craig.
00:55:59You know that.
00:56:01Okay, first topic.
00:56:03How to explain to your child why you're not together anymore.
00:56:07Uh, simple.
00:56:08Her father is a lying, manipulative jerk who hid the fact that I had a daughter for five years.
00:56:15Not to mention whatever other secrets he's keeping.
00:56:17And what would you have done if I'd come up to you in the library that day?
00:56:21Hallie, be honest.
00:56:22You're starting a new life somewhere else.
00:56:24Because you made me believe there was nothing left for me here.
00:56:27So what are you going to do?
00:56:29You're going to take Natalie to New York?
00:56:31Maybe.
00:56:33She belongs here.
00:56:35Not in New York with central air and no pair.
00:56:38And I will be damned if I let Ned Vogel be my daughter's stepfather.
00:56:44Jealous, Craig.
00:56:45You know, of all the things Ned is, he's never lied to me.
00:56:48Never torn my world apart without so much as an explanation.
00:56:51You want an explanation?
00:56:54Yeah.
00:56:54I'll give you one.
00:56:55I did lie to you that day when I told you that I didn't love you anymore.
00:57:03I'm done.
00:57:06I knew he was still in love with you.
00:57:08I knew it.
00:57:08You just came here and you ruined everything like I knew you would.
00:57:11Ruined what exactly?
00:57:13I know the truth, Trista.
00:57:15You and Craig were never together.
00:57:16Oh!
00:57:18And that's about to change, sweetie.
00:57:20Once those divorce papers are finalized, Craig will have no choice but to choose me.
00:57:25Besides, Natalie needs a mother.
00:57:28You want to be Natalie's mom?
00:57:30Well, not particularly.
00:57:32But I can pretend.
00:57:33At least until I send her off to boarding school.
00:57:36After all these years, her father and I deserve some alone time.
00:57:40I mean, don't you think?
00:57:42Don't you dare.
00:57:43Go back to New York, Hallie.
00:57:48None of this concerns of you anymore.
00:57:51I think I'll go comfort your husband now.
00:57:56Oh, he looks upset.
00:57:58Let me out!
00:58:15Somebody!
00:58:16Somebody!
00:58:19I'm so sorry about that.
00:58:21I didn't realize Hallie would try to provoke you like that.
00:58:24Oh, Hallie was right.
00:58:25I should have told her about Natalie.
00:58:27It was unfair.
00:58:29I need to apologize.
00:58:30Do you?
00:58:31Because you and I both know what Hallie would have chosen all those years ago.
00:58:34And it wouldn't have been you and them.
00:58:36I don't, because I never gave her the chance.
00:58:39I did.
00:58:40What?
00:58:41All those years ago, I told her about Natalie.
00:58:44I don't understand.
00:58:52I care about you, Craig.
00:58:54And I would never, ever lie to you.
00:58:57I told her that you had a daughter together.
00:59:00And she never even tried to contact you.
00:59:02Did she?
00:59:07I'm so sorry I didn't tell you before, but I was just trying to protect you.
00:59:12She said that the last thing that she wanted was a daughter with you.
00:59:15She said that?
00:59:17Yes.
00:59:18In fact, she said that she didn't want any kids at all.
00:59:21Hallie was born to be a mother.
00:59:23That's all she's ever wanted.
00:59:25Is it?
00:59:27This is from the judge.
00:59:29She's planning on giving up full custody.
00:59:32She's going to New York.
00:59:33She has no interest in fighting for you or Natalie.
00:59:37But I do.
00:59:38I do.
00:59:38What are you doing?
00:59:48I'm just trying to help you move on, Craig.
00:59:51Hallie will never choose you.
00:59:54But I will.
00:59:55It's not going to happen, Trista.
00:59:58It's not.
00:59:58Natalie.
00:59:59Natalie needs a mother.
01:00:01You know it and I know it.
01:00:02You need to move on, Craig, and come back to reality.
01:00:05Let me out!
01:00:08Allie?
01:00:10What did you do to her?
01:00:12Nothing, nothing, nothing!
01:00:13This was a mistake.
01:00:15Having you help me out all those years ago is the biggest regret of my life.
01:00:19It's never going to happen, no matter what happens with me and Hallie!
01:00:23You want to play it like that?
01:00:32So be it.
01:00:38Hi!
01:00:39I'd like to speak to Senator Ned Vogel, please.
01:00:46Are you okay?
01:00:48Don't.
01:00:49Why do you care, Craig?
01:00:51Is everything you tell me a lie?
01:00:53What?
01:00:54I saw you kissing Trista!
01:00:56Don't try and deny it.
01:00:58You told me you loved me.
01:01:01I don't believe a word you say.
01:01:03Hallie, please, please believe me.
01:01:04That was a mistake.
01:01:06God, the only mistake I ever made was coming back here.
01:01:10I don't know what I thought I'd find.
01:01:13But now I know.
01:01:15I dodged a bullet seven years ago.
01:01:21Hi!
01:01:21I'd like to inform Senator Ned Vogel that his perfect little fiancé is cheating on him with her husband.
01:01:30And don't worry.
01:01:31I have pictures to prove it.
01:01:33No, this isn't a prank phone call.
01:01:37I have proof.
01:01:39No, I'm not lying.
01:01:40I have a proof.
01:01:43What?
01:01:44No, I'm not lying.
01:01:46Hello?
01:01:47Hello?
01:01:48I guess I'll just have to go to the New York Post with this one.
01:01:54You're buried, Hallie.
01:01:58Ned, hi.
01:02:00Hallie, great news.
01:02:01I just got off the phone with my lawyer.
01:02:03He said because you're giving up custody, parenting class is unnecessary.
01:02:07So, you can sign the papers today and you'll be divorced by tomorrow.
01:02:12Tomorrow?
01:02:12Yeah.
01:02:14I already got a schedule for a gala Saturday, a fundraising brunch on Sunday.
01:02:18I can't wait to get you back on my arm in that pretty little black dress of yours.
01:02:21Me either.
01:02:25You don't sound very happy.
01:02:27It's just...
01:02:27What about Natalie?
01:02:30My daughter?
01:02:31What are you going to do, Hallie?
01:02:32Bring the kid with you to New York?
01:02:34Co-parent with your ex?
01:02:35No.
01:02:37Look, if we want to have a baby, we can have a baby.
01:02:40Together.
01:02:42But I'm not going to raise someone else's kids, okay?
01:02:44Just sign over the custody and divorce him.
01:02:48Today.
01:02:49There's nothing there for you anymore, Hallie.
01:02:52Not anymore.
01:02:56You're right.
01:02:57There is nothing left for me here.
01:03:00Hallie.
01:03:01I'm giving up custody and going back to New York.
01:03:05You win, Craig.
01:03:06Win?
01:03:07You never wanted me to be a part of Natalie's life.
01:03:10Or yours.
01:03:13Well, congratulations.
01:03:15You got your wish.
01:03:15Hallie, please just hear me out.
01:03:17That's not the full story.
01:03:18There is nothing that you can say that will change anything.
01:03:21The damage is done.
01:03:24Let's just sign the papers and end this marriage.
01:03:27Party one agrees to give up full custody.
01:03:33Correct?
01:03:35That's right.
01:03:37Okay.
01:03:37So regarding the parental rights of Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:03:41What?
01:03:41Hallie?
01:03:42Her middle name is Hallie?
01:03:44She's your daughter, too.
01:03:47She's your daughter, too.
01:03:49Hey!
01:03:50Oh, my help.
01:03:54She belongs here.
01:03:56I'm not going to raise someone else's kid.
01:04:01Ma'am.
01:04:01Please sign in the dotted line.
01:04:09It's really over.
01:04:24Now for the divorce papers.
01:04:26Is that it?
01:04:36Yes.
01:04:37Congratulations.
01:04:39In 24 hours, you'll be ex-husband and wife.
01:04:42It was nice being married to you, Hallie Bovner.
01:04:47Wish I could say the same, Craig Brody.
01:04:49Lulu, um, I'll be back in the city by tonight.
01:04:59Rebook my meetings and get me a pedicure appointment.
01:05:03Thank God.
01:05:03I thought you were never coming back.
01:05:05But then I remembered.
01:05:07You're Hallie Bovner.
01:05:08Your work is your life.
01:05:12My life.
01:05:13Right.
01:05:14Oh, by the way, did you ever do that favor I asked?
01:05:21Oh, you mean that favor where I went to 50 different toy stores all over the city just
01:05:25for one special kid?
01:05:28Yes, I did.
01:05:30Which, might I ask, who is this special child?
01:05:36My daughter.
01:05:36A monster truck 300?
01:05:45This is the best present ever.
01:05:48Who's next?
01:05:50Sam, why don't you get Natalie's present over with?
01:05:53We all know it's going to be the worst.
01:05:56Here it is.
01:05:57Look how tiny it is.
01:05:59Catch.
01:06:04It's probably a gum wrapper.
01:06:06Or a half-eat an apple.
01:06:08She's so poor, she probably can't afford anything else.
01:06:13Guys, be nice.
01:06:15At least if it's not a tree branch, like last time.
01:06:19It was a walking stick, and my dad made it.
01:06:22That's right, your dad.
01:06:24Because where's your mom again?
01:06:26That's right, nowhere.
01:06:31Oops.
01:06:31Hope it wasn't fragile.
01:06:36It's a friendship bracelet.
01:06:40Friendship?
01:06:41We're not friends.
01:06:43That's so sad.
01:06:45I can't believe you actually invited this freak to your party.
01:06:49My mom forced me to.
01:06:51If you had a mom, she'd help you pick out a real present, not this dumb piece of string.
01:06:57I do have a mom.
01:06:59Then, where is she?
01:07:01She lives in New York, and she's a powerful CEO.
01:07:04Why do you make up a story like that?
01:07:06If your mom was a powerful CEO, she would give you better gifts than this.
01:07:10Momless Loser!
01:07:15Momless Loser!
01:07:17Momless Loser!
01:07:19Momless Loser!
01:07:21Momless Loser!
01:07:23Momless Loser!
01:07:25Momless Loser!
01:07:27Nobody can take your power away from you, except you.
01:07:32Don't ever forget that.
01:07:33You were wrong, Mommy, and you left me.
01:07:36You know what?
01:07:37Forget this!
01:07:38Hi, I have a delivery for Sam Baker.
01:07:50That's me!
01:07:53These must be for my uncle.
01:07:56He's super rich!
01:07:58Where do you think you're going?
01:08:00I never shouldn't have come.
01:08:01I'm getting out of here.
01:08:03Actually, you're going to stay here and watch what real presents look like.
01:08:08Yeah, and maybe next time you'll come up with something better than a stupid people's drink.
01:08:13A pickleball racket?
01:08:15Nintendo Switch?
01:08:16A build room bar kit?
01:08:19An e-scooter?
01:08:21A Monster Truck 400?
01:08:24These must cost a fortune!
01:08:27Uncle Rick is the best!
01:08:29Uh, actually, these gifts are from Natalie's mom.
01:08:37My mommy!
01:08:38She does love me!
01:08:39Wait!
01:08:40This has to be a prank!
01:08:42Natalie is just lying about her mom!
01:08:44She's a real!
01:08:45Well, someone very real signed for these purchase orders herself.
01:08:48All $15,000 worth of them.
01:08:50$15,000?
01:08:52How rich is she?
01:08:55Like I said, she's a powerful CEO in New York, and she's too busy to care what you small-town
01:09:01losers think.
01:09:03No, wait!
01:09:03No!
01:09:04Where are you going?
01:09:04Uh, it's okay.
01:09:06You can sit next to me.
01:09:07No!
01:09:08Sit next to me!
01:09:10I want to be friends with you if you pay me.
01:09:13Enjoy the presents, loser.
01:09:14And your cake is dry, by the way!
01:09:25Daddy.
01:09:28I don't know if you can hear me, but I wanted you to know I'm going back to New York, okay?
01:09:35You were right about Craig.
01:09:38He's a liar.
01:09:40And a cheat.
01:09:41But the man I'm about to marry?
01:09:42He's rich.
01:09:47Handsome.
01:09:49Successful.
01:09:51Exactly.
01:09:52The kind of man you would have wanted for me.
01:09:55I'll miss you, okay?
01:10:00You're running towards something.
01:10:02Back to your life.
01:10:04Go!
01:10:05Your father's in good hands.
01:10:07I promise.
01:10:08Would you look after Natalie for me?
01:10:11Of course.
01:10:12I'm looking forward to seeing you.
01:10:13I don't know.
01:10:14Help me to see you.
01:10:14Good night.
01:10:14It's OK.
01:10:14Good night.
01:10:15Good night.
01:10:27I miss you, I miss you.
01:10:29Thank you so much.
01:10:29Thank you so much.
01:10:33Natalie!
01:10:34Natalie!
01:10:35What are you doing here?
01:10:37I'm coming with you to New York!
01:10:39Natalie, it's not that simple.
01:10:45Look, your father and I, we got divorced.
01:10:48But that doesn't mean you can't still be my mommy.
01:10:52Actually, it does.
01:10:54Look, you belong here with your father.
01:10:57So do you, mommy.
01:10:58I know you do, and so does daddy.
01:11:01Wait, what?
01:11:02Daddy sometimes talks in his sleep.
01:11:05He's always saying sorry to you and how much he loves you.
01:11:09This will always belong to Halle, and so will my heart.
01:11:16What is this doing here?
01:11:19Whatever he did, I think he feels really bad about it.
01:11:22And I think he's still in love with you.
01:11:26Ma'am, the boarding is closing. Are you coming?
01:11:30Yes, we're coming.
01:11:33I'm sorry, sweetie. I can't let you fly. I'm not without a ticket.
01:11:35Ma'am, you'll need to choose. Are you staying here with her, or are you flying to New York?
01:11:41We're closing the doors in one minute.
01:11:46The flight departs in one minute.
01:11:47Come on, Natalie. I'll take you home.
01:12:00Oh, my God. Where'd you find her?
01:12:04She was at the airport.
01:12:06Airport?
01:12:06I wanted to go out to New York City with Mommy.
01:12:10She knows.
01:12:12I cried.
01:12:15Natalie, can you give us a minute?
01:12:17Okay, Daddy.
01:12:19Thank you for bringing her back.
01:12:21Of course.
01:12:24But, um, before I go,
01:12:26I have a favorite mask.
01:12:28Anything.
01:12:30Bye, Natalie, your mother.
01:12:31Just make sure it's not Trista.
01:12:35Okay?
01:12:37Okay.
01:12:41Bye.
01:12:41Bye.
01:12:41Bye.
01:12:41Bye.
01:13:01After all these years,
01:13:08he never gave up on us.
01:13:11After all these years,
01:13:13he never gave up on us.
01:13:20You probably could have come up with something better.
01:13:22No, it's...
01:13:24perfect.
01:13:27How long have you been working on this?
01:13:29A few years now.
01:13:33Ever since I left?
01:13:36Maybe.
01:13:39But...
01:13:40why?
01:13:42I couldn't let our dream die
01:13:44just because our marriage did.
01:13:47That crazy dream?
01:13:49Doesn't look so crazy anymore, does it?
01:13:53No, it doesn't.
01:13:54Natalie,
01:13:56not a day goes by
01:13:57where I don't think about you.
01:13:59and I know, I know
01:14:01you won't believe a word I say,
01:14:03but I thought
01:14:04maybe you'd believe something you could see.
01:14:15Is that...
01:14:16us?
01:14:18Yeah, it is.
01:14:19I love you.
01:14:26And I never stopped.
01:14:29I've missed this for so long.
01:14:33I've wanted this for so long.
01:14:49no, no, no, we have to stop.
01:14:55The papers are signed, Craig.
01:14:57I'm engaged to someone else.
01:14:59Yeah.
01:15:00And it's too late to turn the clock back now.
01:15:05Send me a picture when the town's rebuilt, okay?
01:15:07Oh, that's the thing.
01:15:09It, um...
01:15:10It won't be.
01:15:12What?
01:15:13What do you mean?
01:15:15Got this in the mail today.
01:15:17My plans were approved,
01:15:18but, uh,
01:15:19Dirk Diggle
01:15:20bought up all the local contractors,
01:15:22and I can't afford anyone else,
01:15:23so...
01:15:25I'm going to have to rescind my offer.
01:15:27No, you...
01:15:27you can't do that.
01:15:29I have to.
01:15:30I don't have a choice.
01:15:31What if I said...
01:15:34I could help.
01:15:38I could help.
01:15:41Go back to New York, Ellie.
01:15:44Don't worry about someone's
01:15:46tiny little dream
01:15:47in a...
01:15:48nowhere town.
01:15:50This was our dream, Craig.
01:15:55Besides, you helped me out
01:15:57with their dick loss.
01:15:59Oh!
01:16:00She said she's not interested, bro.
01:16:04Now let me help you.
01:16:15Lulu.
01:16:16Um...
01:16:17Change of plans.
01:16:19Send all of our best contractors
01:16:21to Franklin, Tennessee.
01:16:22Also, cancel my pedicure appointment.
01:16:23Have you come to withdraw
01:16:31your application, Craig?
01:16:33I knew you couldn't afford it.
01:16:34Well, actually,
01:16:35I just came to give you
01:16:36the deposit.
01:16:38We break ground tomorrow.
01:16:41We.
01:16:42We said we would fix this town.
01:16:44Mm-hmm.
01:16:45And that is exactly
01:16:47what we're going to do.
01:16:48I never thought
01:16:53I'd see the day
01:16:54where our dream
01:16:54became a reality.
01:16:56No, it was always
01:16:56your dream.
01:16:57I was just happy to help.
01:17:02Lulu!
01:17:03Oh, my God!
01:17:05Wow, boss.
01:17:06No wonder you never came back.
01:17:08You never told me
01:17:09your husband
01:17:09was a stone-cold heart.
01:17:11Oh.
01:17:12Ex-husband.
01:17:13Right.
01:17:19Hallie.
01:17:20Ned.
01:17:21Hi.
01:17:23What are you doing here?
01:17:25I told you I would be back
01:17:25next week.
01:17:26You want to tell me
01:17:27what the meaning of this is?
01:17:33You told me there was
01:17:34nothing going on
01:17:35between you two.
01:17:36Are you trying
01:17:37to embarrass me
01:17:38on a national stage?
01:17:39No, um, no.
01:17:40Ned, I am so sorry.
01:17:42I, uh,
01:17:43is your campaign
01:17:44okay?
01:17:44It's fine
01:17:45for now.
01:17:47Luckily,
01:17:48this is just a mock-up.
01:17:49Post gave it to us
01:17:50before going to press.
01:17:51Get in.
01:17:53I am taking you home.
01:17:56Ned,
01:17:56I told you
01:17:57this project
01:17:58is important.
01:17:59Hallie,
01:18:00you build
01:18:00multi-billion dollar
01:18:01skyscrapers,
01:18:03not whatever
01:18:03this is.
01:18:05This matters.
01:18:07A sad little shopping mall
01:18:09in a sad little town?
01:18:11Come on, Hallie.
01:18:12you're better than this.
01:18:14What's that
01:18:16supposed to mean?
01:18:17Being back here
01:18:18it has you confused.
01:18:19You don't know
01:18:20what you want.
01:18:21You don't know
01:18:22who you really are anymore.
01:18:24But this
01:18:25is your past.
01:18:28I am your future.
01:18:30Remember?
01:18:31You still
01:18:32want to marry me?
01:18:34Even after that?
01:18:35Yes.
01:18:36In fact,
01:18:37I want to move
01:18:37the wedding up.
01:18:38Let's get married
01:18:39right now.
01:18:43Let's get married
01:18:45right now.
01:18:46Right now?
01:18:48Um.
01:18:49Excuse me.
01:18:53Hey.
01:18:54Seeing these photos,
01:18:56it made me realize
01:18:57how much you mean to me.
01:18:59I can't lose you, Hallie.
01:19:01I don't want to lose you.
01:19:03Please
01:19:04marry me.
01:19:08You're gonna marry her?
01:19:11She was cheating
01:19:12on you.
01:19:15Who are you?
01:19:16I'm the woman
01:19:17that took these photos.
01:19:19So,
01:19:20you admit to sabotaging
01:19:21a political campaign.
01:19:22What?
01:19:24No.
01:19:25Ma'am,
01:19:25you're lucky
01:19:26the senator
01:19:26doesn't press charges.
01:19:27Come with me.
01:19:28What?
01:19:29No.
01:19:29No.
01:19:30No.
01:19:30You will not win
01:19:31this one, Hallie.
01:19:32No.
01:19:33Don't touch me.
01:19:36Ned,
01:19:36this all just
01:19:38feels a little fast.
01:19:40Yeah,
01:19:40but is it, Hallie?
01:19:41What are we waiting for?
01:19:45What are we waiting for?
01:19:49I don't know.
01:19:51Quit fucking around
01:19:52and marry me already.
01:19:54What's the rush, Ned?
01:19:56I...
01:19:56The post agreed
01:19:57to kill the cheating story
01:19:58if we give him
01:19:59something better.
01:20:02Something like...
01:20:03A wedding,
01:20:04for example.
01:20:06You want to marry me
01:20:07for a story?
01:20:09Come on, Hallie.
01:20:11We're gonna get married anyway.
01:20:13What difference does it make?
01:20:14Was this
01:20:14whole thing
01:20:16just a publicity stunt?
01:20:19Our engagement?
01:20:20Our relationship?
01:20:22No.
01:20:23Of course not.
01:20:24I love you.
01:20:25Then what's my favorite color?
01:20:26What's my favorite color, Ned?
01:20:28Oh, come on, Hallie.
01:20:30My favorite flower?
01:20:34My favorite flower?
01:20:35I don't know.
01:20:36Roses?
01:20:37Does it even matter?
01:20:39Yes, it does.
01:20:42I'm sorry,
01:20:45Ned,
01:20:45but I can't marry you.
01:20:47Yes, you can.
01:20:48Yes, you can.
01:20:48Because if you don't,
01:20:51I can make your life
01:20:52very difficult.
01:20:54Starting with those
01:20:55big city contracts
01:20:56you just won.
01:20:57I spent years of blood,
01:20:58sweat,
01:20:59and tears
01:20:59to get those contracts.
01:21:01Once I'm elected,
01:21:02I can make them all go poof.
01:21:05I have friends
01:21:06in very high places, Hallie.
01:21:07No, you wouldn't dare.
01:21:09I've worked my entire career
01:21:11for those.
01:21:12Well, then the answer
01:21:13is simple.
01:21:14Marry me
01:21:15or lose everything.
01:21:18Come on, Hallie.
01:21:19This is not
01:21:20a difficult choice.
01:21:22You're hurting me.
01:21:23If you think this is pain,
01:21:24you haven't felt anything
01:21:25yet.
01:21:27Neither of you.
01:21:27My suit.
01:21:41My jaw.
01:21:42You broke my face.
01:21:45Good.
01:21:46Looks better that way
01:21:47in my opinion.
01:21:48I have you arrested
01:21:49for assaulting
01:21:50a government official.
01:21:51There isn't a cop
01:21:52who will side with you
01:21:53over me.
01:21:54Not in this town.
01:21:55And by the way,
01:21:58her favorite color
01:21:59is blue,
01:22:00and her favorite flower
01:22:01is the marigold
01:22:02because it blooms
01:22:03from spring to fall.
01:22:06There you go.
01:22:08I hope that suit
01:22:08wasn't too expensive.
01:22:10This suit
01:22:11is worth more
01:22:12than you make in a year.
01:22:13Isn't that something?
01:22:15It's time for you
01:22:16to leave, Senator.
01:22:17Come on, Hallie.
01:22:19You're not going
01:22:19to give up everything
01:22:20just for some pathetic
01:22:21small-town nobody.
01:22:23Yeah, he may be
01:22:25from a small town,
01:22:26but he is not
01:22:28a nobody.
01:22:30In fact,
01:22:31if I had to choose
01:22:32a son-in-law,
01:22:33I'd pick him over you
01:22:34any day of the week.
01:22:36Daddy!
01:22:38Hallie,
01:22:39I am so sorry
01:22:40for everything,
01:22:42starting with meddling
01:22:43in your marriage.
01:22:45Meddling?
01:22:46I'm the one
01:22:47that made Craig divorce.
01:22:49I told him
01:22:50if he really loved you,
01:22:51he'd let you go.
01:22:53He did.
01:22:57I thought you deserved
01:22:58more than a small town,
01:23:00more than a local boy
01:23:02like him.
01:23:03She does, sir.
01:23:05Come on, Hallie.
01:23:07He divorced you.
01:23:08He gave up a daughter
01:23:09for you.
01:23:10So what if I want
01:23:11to marry you
01:23:11for a story?
01:23:13People get married
01:23:14for worse reasons,
01:23:15and they get divorced
01:23:16for better ones.
01:23:19I don't care what you think,
01:23:20old man.
01:23:21Hallie,
01:23:21you're coming with me.
01:23:22You stay away
01:23:23from my daughter.
01:23:24Hallie,
01:23:25I am not leaving.
01:23:27You owe it to me
01:23:27to go through this wedding.
01:23:29I've had about enough
01:23:30of people telling me
01:23:31who I should
01:23:32and shouldn't marry.
01:23:36Get out of here, Ned.
01:23:38It's over between us.
01:23:43Get out of here, Ned.
01:23:44It's over between us.
01:23:48Fine.
01:23:50But I hope you know
01:23:51what you're giving up, Hallie.
01:23:54I most certainly do.
01:24:01It was too big anyway.
01:24:02Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
01:24:07What about me?
01:24:08I'll marry you.
01:24:09I'm sure the Post
01:24:10would love to see me
01:24:12at a wedding gown.
01:24:14And I would look way better
01:24:15than Hallie ever would.
01:24:17Not in a million years.
01:24:19Oh, my gosh.
01:24:21Ew.
01:24:22Ew, ew, ew, ew, ew, ew.
01:24:24Oh, my God.
01:24:26I can't see me like this.
01:24:27Oh, my God.
01:24:28I owe you both an apology
01:24:33for trying to play God.
01:24:35Daddy.
01:24:36Hear me out.
01:24:38When I was in the hospital
01:24:39and I hooked up
01:24:40to all those machines,
01:24:42I just kept having
01:24:43the same wonderful dream.
01:24:45This dream where
01:24:47you were still together.
01:24:49This dream where you
01:24:50were both living
01:24:51the life you deserve.
01:24:52I took that future
01:24:54and that life away from you.
01:24:55Allie, Craig never
01:25:00wanted to divorce you.
01:25:03Allie, Craig never
01:25:05wanted to divorce you.
01:25:06How?
01:25:08This should be enough.
01:25:10I want her on that plane,
01:25:13alone, whatever it takes.
01:25:16I tried to pay him off.
01:25:20And this is what he did
01:25:22with the money.
01:25:22I've never seen someone
01:25:25work so hard for love.
01:25:28Is this true, Craig?
01:25:30Mm-hmm.
01:25:32Why didn't you just tell me?
01:25:35Because I didn't want you
01:25:35to hate your father
01:25:36or blame him
01:25:38when you just thought
01:25:38he was doing what was right.
01:25:41You were protecting me.
01:25:43That's right.
01:25:45You two are the only family
01:25:46you have left.
01:25:49Unless...
01:25:50Let me be a part
01:25:54of your family again.
01:25:57Now, I know
01:25:58this ring
01:26:00isn't exactly as big
01:26:01as your old one,
01:26:03but it's, um,
01:26:04you'd make me
01:26:05the happiest man
01:26:06in the world
01:26:07if you would marry me
01:26:08again.
01:26:10Yeah?
01:26:10Yes!
01:26:11Yes, Craig,
01:26:12I'll marry you!
01:26:13Oh, perfect fit!
01:26:15It always was.
01:26:23Mommy, Daddy,
01:26:24I knew you'd come back together.
01:26:26Oh, she did.
01:26:27Come on.
01:26:28Come on.
01:26:29Here we go.
01:26:30Dale,
01:26:30that wasn't such a crazy dream.
01:26:32I'd like you to meet
01:26:33your granddaughter,
01:26:34Natalie Hallie Brody.
01:26:36My dream came true.
01:26:38Hi, Grandpa.
01:26:39Allie,
01:26:41this is crazy,
01:26:43but if we run,
01:26:44we can make it
01:26:44to the town clerk
01:26:45before it closes.
01:26:46I do not want to be divorced
01:26:48from you one second longer.
01:26:50Me either.
01:26:50Yeah?
01:26:51Yeah?
01:26:52Okay, what do we think?
01:26:53Who's up for a wedding?
01:26:56Yeah?
01:26:57Yeah?
01:26:57Yeah?
01:26:58Yeah?
01:26:59Hi.
01:27:04Um,
01:27:04we would like to get remarried.
01:27:08I can't accept your remarriage.
01:27:10That's ridiculous.
01:27:12Uh, what?
01:27:13Why?
01:27:14I can't accept your remarriage.
01:27:17That's ridiculous.
01:27:18Uh, what?
01:27:19Why?
01:27:20Well, because you were never really divorced
01:27:22in the first place.
01:27:23Look right here.
01:27:24You signed your name
01:27:25Hallie Bildner,
01:27:27but your name is
01:27:28and always has been
01:27:29Hallie Brody.
01:27:31Will you look at that?
01:27:34Wait, so, um,
01:27:35that means the custody papers?
01:27:38Well, that's, uh,
01:27:41that's void.
01:27:43So, you're still
01:27:44Natalie's parents.
01:27:48Mommy!
01:27:52Daddy.
01:27:55I forgive you.
01:27:58I've got seven units
01:28:14to make up for it.
01:28:15I just want to thank you all
01:28:29for your faith in me.
01:28:31And as your new mayor,
01:28:33I promise to work tirelessly
01:28:35to bring this town back
01:28:36to what it once was.
01:28:37starting with
01:28:39the community center
01:28:41that Craig and Hallie
01:28:43so generously built.
01:28:47We love you,
01:28:47Milwartha.
01:28:48Love you.
01:28:49Love you.
01:28:55What do you think?
01:28:56It looks like they found a story
01:29:03to replace him with
01:29:03after all.
01:29:11Is there a really baby
01:29:12right there?
01:29:13Yes.
01:29:15We're going to be one big
01:29:15happy family.
