00:09:05alex get in here we need to roll some calls to south korea you're gonna need that

00:09:12coming

00:09:16we're still evaluating the chicago hub closure

00:09:19it's costing us labor shortages at key distribution centers are already slowing down operation times and

00:09:28shifting our operations to detroit might create bottlenecks we we just can't afford right now

00:09:33so what we're just going to bleed cash while you evaluate i need solutions faster not more excuses people

00:09:41we're exploring alternatives nothing definitive yet

00:09:48um sorry to interrupt

00:09:50but have you considered splitting freight between detroit and cleveland and using your existing rail

00:09:58contracts to offset the overflow huh so what you're you're now an expert in freight logistics

00:10:05uh no but i was looking over last quarter's regional expense report while it could be off but cleveland's

00:10:13underutilized and you're already paying for the rail infrastructure

00:10:17it wouldn't solve all your problems but it could keep the detroit bottleneck from shutting you down

00:10:21entirely actually that could work worth a shot i mean obviously my team would need to take a look at

00:10:29it and sort out the details is there anything else i should know about my business not yet

00:21:11I'm a bass player.

00:21:12I'm a bass player.

00:21:14This is my permission.

00:21:17So, Miss Livingston, I was looking over the official guest list for the party tonight,

00:21:41and you lied to me. Your name's not Alexandra, is it?

00:21:50I thought only HR saw that.

00:21:54Oh, don't be embarrassed, sugar. I think that's a very sweet name.

00:22:00I'm not embarrassed, it's just private. My parents were the only ones who called me that.

00:22:09I see. I apologize. I didn't know. I didn't mean to upset you.

00:22:20Hey, Alex. I mean it. I'm sorry.

00:22:30I think I owe you a drink. I'll be right back.

00:22:46You look stunning. Let's see the dress.

00:22:53Let's get to turn even me straight.

00:22:55Picked it out just for you.

00:22:56It's perfect.

00:22:57May I have this dance, my lady?

00:23:01Who are you?

00:23:19Hey, bro.

00:23:20Is that for me?

00:23:21Get your own drink, bro.

00:23:23And maybe your own date while you're at it.

00:23:25Dane?

00:23:27I knew it.

00:23:28Uh, my guest.

00:23:30You know what I mean.

00:23:31Yeah, sure. I know what you mean.

00:23:32I'll take that. I'll leave you guys to it.

00:23:34It's just a dance. Do not be weird about this.

00:23:50Oh, I'm being weird?

00:23:52Everyone else is dancing. It would look strange if we didn't.

00:23:56And besides, it's not like we're attracted to each other, right?

00:24:02Right.

00:24:14So, something going on between you and my brother?

00:24:19Jase?

00:24:20Of course not. That was nothing.

00:24:23It didn't look like nothing.

00:24:26If I didn't know any better, I'd say you sound jealous.

00:24:30Don't be ridiculous.

00:24:32I'm just looking out for my assistant.

00:24:37Well, I doubt he's interested. He's, you know...

00:24:42He's what?

00:24:45You don't know?

00:24:48Never mind.

00:24:50So, you guys aren't that close then?

00:24:53Well, excuse me if I don't have time to listen to my brother's sexual exploits.

00:24:57If you hadn't noticed, I'm somewhat busy running the largest shipping company in America.

00:25:02It's important to make time for family, Lincoln.

00:25:05That's none of your concern.

00:25:08Just focus on steering clear of an office romance, Miss Livingston.

00:25:12It's unprofessional.

00:25:15What, this?

00:25:19This is just two co-workers dancing.

00:25:22Right.

00:25:23A totally normal boss slash assistant slow dance.

00:25:28It's completely innocent.

00:25:30Hmm.

00:25:31They're rarely touching.

00:25:33Yeah.

00:25:34I'm gonna be surprised.

00:25:37Well, some of our board members are already here.

00:25:41I need you to make your rounds.

00:25:43Miss Livingston?

00:25:43Shall we?

00:25:44Well, Mr. Harris was just saying that he was very impressed with your recent progress.

00:25:50Shall we?

00:25:56Well, Mr. Harris was just saying that he was very impressed with your recent progress.

00:26:01Wonderful to see that you're finally settling in, Lincoln.

00:26:08Miss Livingston has been a welcomed addition.

00:26:11Oh, yes. Detroit and Cleveland. Nice work.

00:26:16Yes, and we're also improving transit times.

00:26:18I'll actually be in New York next week.

00:26:30Team there and finalizing everything, making sure everything's running smoothly.

00:26:34What are you doing here?

00:26:37I just thought I'd stop by. I thought you could use the moral support.

00:26:41Where's Malia?

00:26:42I got a babysitter.

00:26:44I think everyone knows Camilla, Malia's mother.

00:26:48Who's this?

00:26:53Uh, no one. Just, uh, my assistant.

00:26:57Alex. Nice to meet you, Alice.

00:27:02As I was saying, the transit times in New York, I really...

00:27:05Oh, come on, Lincoln.

00:27:06Don't be a bore. It's a party.

00:27:09No one wants to talk about business.

00:27:11Am I right?

00:27:12Let's dance.

00:27:13Maybe later.

00:27:15These gentlemen are on the board.

00:27:17You don't mind if I steal them, do you?

00:27:19What are you doing?

00:27:30Are you drunk?

00:27:30The whole office is here.

00:27:32We never have any time together.

00:27:33And there's a reason for that, Camilla.

00:27:35We're not together anymore.

00:27:37You made that perfectly clear when you fucked my best friend.

00:27:40Oh, come on, Lincoln.

00:27:41I'm sorry if I embarrassed you.

00:27:44I just...

00:27:46I miss you.

00:27:49And I was thinking about how we used to come to these things together.

00:27:53I was hoping you'd dance with me.

00:27:56For all time's sake.

00:28:00One dance.

00:28:01One dance.

00:28:01Excuse me, gentlemen.

00:28:21Doesn't this feel nice?

00:28:24I know you miss this.

00:28:25This is a work event, Camilla.

00:28:33Facts, Lincoln.

00:28:34So tense.

00:28:36I could fix that, you know.

00:28:39What do you want, hmm?

00:28:41And don't give me some bullshit about missing me.

00:28:44I know you.

00:28:45You want money, don't you?

00:28:47Have you given any more thought to the conversation we had the other day?

00:28:52Malia's getting older.

00:28:53It's only getting harder to take care of her, especially with her situation.

00:28:59We should be a family.

00:29:01We tried.

00:29:02And failed miserably.

00:29:04I can't be with you, Camilla.

00:29:06Are you sure about that?

00:29:09Camilla, don't.

00:29:11Kiss me.

00:29:13If you don't feel anything, I'll leave you alone.

00:29:20Stop.

00:29:21Jesus.

00:29:23Don't tell me you didn't enjoy that.

00:29:27Lincoln, are you listening to me?

00:29:31Look at me.

00:29:32You don't want me to make a scene, do you?

00:29:35Because you know I will.

00:29:38Let me make something very clear to you.

00:29:41We are never getting back together, Camilla.

00:29:43You hear me?

00:29:44Ever.

00:29:45Now, you need to go.

00:29:47But...

00:29:48Right now.

00:29:48Not having any fun?

00:30:13Let's see if we can change that.

00:30:28This is my mom's 60th birthday, right?

00:30:31And her sorority sisters are drinking me under the table.

00:30:34And Agnes, her old roommate, slept with the bartender.

00:30:40So that's the last call, right?

00:30:41I go up to the bar looking for this guy.

00:30:43Aggie's dragging him to the bathroom.

00:30:45Oh my God!

00:30:46Stop!

00:30:49Something funny?

00:30:54Time to go.

00:30:54It's okay.

00:31:07Arturo.

00:31:09Took Miss Livingston home.

00:31:10You're being incredibly rude.

00:31:12You know that?

00:31:12You're getting wasted at a company party.

00:31:15It's totally inappropriate.

00:31:17Don't you inappropriate me.

00:31:19Your girlfriend was treating you like a stripper pole.

00:31:20You made out in front of everyone.

00:31:22Okay, first of all, she's my ex.

00:31:25And second of all, I can do whatever I want.

00:31:27I'm a CEO.

00:31:29Interrupt.

00:31:30Right.

00:31:31Is that why you're cozying up to my dad?

00:31:34What, my title not good enough for you?

00:31:35Charm your way up the corporate ladder?

00:31:37CEO this week, chairman the next.

00:31:40Meanwhile, you're wasted hanging all over Jace.

00:31:42What do you care anyway?

00:31:44I thought you weren't attracted to me.

00:31:46I'm not.

00:31:48Oh yeah?

00:31:49Yeah.

00:31:51Liar.

00:31:54I didn't expect you to have tattoos.

00:32:16Yeah, well, there's a lot you don't know about me.

00:32:18That cost $8,000.

00:32:28Yeah, my fucking money.

00:32:31Now get the hell over here.

00:32:39Is that a scar?

00:32:42It's odd.

00:32:43Fuck me.

00:32:47Fuck me.

00:32:49Leave us at some of the way tonight that we both love.

00:32:53I wanna be with you.

00:32:55I wanna be with you.

00:32:57We can't let this slip away.

00:32:59You know, I won't give a stain.

00:33:01Yes, I wanna be with you.

00:33:03I wanna be with you.

00:33:05I wanna run away.

00:33:06We can't let this go too late.

00:33:08I don't wanna put it all over.

00:33:11We can't let this go too late.

00:33:15You are...

00:33:45Want to come inside?

00:33:49Uh, no.

00:33:52Right. No.

00:33:55Of course not.

00:33:58Well, I guess I'll see you on Monday.

00:34:15Good morning.

00:34:21Good morning.

00:34:31I can't believe I risked my job for a guy who doesn't give two shits about me.

00:34:36It's not your fault. Laken barely gives a shit about his own family, you know?

00:34:39Me. Dad.

00:34:41But I've seen how he is with Malia, and...

00:34:44She's a soft spot.

00:34:46Laken's got some serious trust issues.

00:34:49Like, he needs therapy about it.

00:34:52Camilla really messed him up.

00:34:53Look, I consider myself a feminist, right?

00:34:57That bitch is a gold digger.

00:35:00I mean, she was basically using him to bankroll her modeling career.

00:35:03Took him, like, three years to come to his senses, and when he finally did,

00:35:05Oh, surprise, surprise, guess who's suddenly pregnant?

00:35:10Jesus.

00:35:12Maybe it's just us to pretend like this never happened.

00:35:15It sounds like he's been through a lot.

00:35:17Look, I gotta run to a meeting.

00:35:25How about you come over for dinner tonight?

00:35:27Seven? I'll text you the details.

00:35:30Yeah, I'm down.

00:35:32Great.

00:35:33Can't remember the last time you had us over for dinner.

00:35:55Dad insisted.

00:35:57Something about never getting to see Malia these days.

00:35:59I wanted to have the gala post-mortem at the office.

00:36:03You know, like normal business partners and not...

00:36:06Family members.

00:36:07Exactly.

00:36:12Did you give Alex a ride on Saturday?

00:36:19Grandpa, I told you it's me.

00:36:21You?

00:36:22Ah, you're too tall.

00:36:24No, my Malia, last time I saw her, she was just about my knee high.

00:36:27Hey, has anybody seen my granddaughter?

00:36:30Hmm.

00:36:31Because this little woman is an imposter.

00:36:33Hehehe.

00:36:35Are we expecting company?

00:36:48Tell him to send an extra plate.

00:36:55Alex?

00:36:56Lincoln?

00:36:57You mean it?

00:36:58You mean it?

00:37:21Didn't realize you were joining us, Alex.

00:37:23Me neither.

00:37:36It's okay.

00:37:37I don't like asparagus either.

00:37:39My dad says I have to eat it because it's healthy for me.

00:37:43He's right.

00:37:45It is.

00:37:46Look on the bright side.

00:37:47At least it's not brussel sprouts, am I right?

00:37:50Hehehe.

00:37:53Hehehe.

00:37:59That was delicious.

00:38:00All right.

00:38:04Miss Livingston.

00:38:07A word.

00:38:07Uh, Mr. Blaineford, about the other night, I know the gala was a mess with Camilla.

00:38:20Alex, I've seen a change in my son.

00:38:24I've seen a change in my son.

00:38:25Really?

00:38:25It's the first time I've seen him smile in years.

00:38:28Keep doing what you're doing.

00:38:31You planned this, didn't you?

00:38:33I just thought I'd give you and Lakin some time alone.

00:38:37Thank you, Jace.

00:38:38You're very welcome.

00:38:39Jace, don't.

00:38:39Bye.

00:38:42Wanna watch Disney with us?

00:38:44Uh, you have a spelling test to study for, remember?

00:38:47But I wanna hang out with Alex.

00:38:49Please, Daddy, please.

00:38:56Works for me.

00:38:57I'll be right back.

00:39:11Hey.

00:39:13Come on.

00:39:14Get your bed.

00:39:16Come on.

00:39:17Come on.

00:39:27She likes you, you know?

00:39:54She's not normally so comfortable with strangers.

00:39:59I like her, too.

00:40:07So, are we gonna figure out what happened, or did I just fuck myself out of a job?

00:40:16Your job is not in danger.

00:40:20Okay, that doesn't totally answer my question.

00:40:24What do you want me to say, Alex?

00:40:27I can't get involved with my assistant.

00:40:31Not with the board watching my every move.

00:40:36But I also can't accept the fact that Saturday night was the last time that we'll ever...

00:40:43I thought I did something wrong.

00:40:46I want you, Alex.

00:40:48That's the problem.

00:40:49What if we separate church and state?

00:41:01At work, we're professional.

00:41:05But outside of work, we're...

00:41:08Unprofessional?

00:41:09I think the light is like...

00:41:11I'm asleep walking through

00:41:14All of my problems, I know

00:41:16I can't make it through

00:41:20Every night is the same

00:41:22I keep running fast

00:41:24Left and right

00:41:26Wondering where my head's gone now

00:41:29I'm asleep walking through

00:41:32All of my problems, I know

00:41:35Let's go, Leah, come on

00:41:43Mom!

00:41:44Faster!

00:41:46Hey, uh...

00:41:48Lincoln's not here right now

00:41:50He just landed in New York...

00:41:51New York.

00:41:52I know

00:41:52But it turns out

00:41:54I can't take Malia at all this week

00:41:56Going to LA

00:41:58Business trip

00:41:59So, she's all yours

00:42:01Oh, uh...

00:42:03I'm not really here to be childcare

00:42:04I'm sure you'll figure something out

00:42:07Mommy loves you, Malia

00:42:11I'll see you in two weeks, okay?

00:42:19Why doesn't you want to be with me?

00:42:22Hey, hey

00:42:24It's okay, Malia

00:42:25Alex, what's going on?

00:42:39Hey, we have a problem

00:42:40Camilla just dropped Malia off at the office and left

00:42:43She said she can't take care of this week after all

00:42:45What?

00:42:46Let me talk to her

00:42:48Hi, honey

00:42:53Are you okay?

00:42:54Hi

00:42:55Listen, uh...

00:42:57Mommy had to go away for a little bit

00:42:58But, uh...

00:42:59I'm going to be back tonight

00:43:00And in the meantime

00:43:01Alex is going to take care of you, okay?

00:43:02Everything is fine

00:43:03I love you

00:43:04I love you, too

00:43:05I should have known she'd pull a stunt like this

00:43:12So much for that family time she wanted

00:43:14I will book the first flight out this evening

00:43:17Okay

00:43:18Okay

00:43:19Bye

00:43:20Okay, so we'll get you fed

00:43:30I can help you with your homework

00:43:31And by the time your dad gets back

00:43:33Is that too much rice?

00:43:37I'm sorry

00:43:38You have nothing to be sorry about

00:43:41Has your mom done this before?

00:43:50Sort of

00:43:51Sometimes she leaves me with someone with her friends for a few days

00:43:55So she can go on work trips

00:43:58Work trips

00:44:01Huh

00:44:02Does your dad know about this?

00:44:05I'm not supposed to tell him

00:44:07She says it's important for girls my age to be able to take care of themselves

00:44:12Shit!

00:44:14I mean, shoot!

00:44:16Oh my god, Malia!

00:44:36Malia

00:44:37I'm sorry

00:44:41I didn't mean to

00:44:43Better?

00:44:56Better?

00:45:00Good

00:45:00How will we order some pizza?

00:45:06Malia?

00:45:26Do you want to tell me what made you so upset earlier?

00:45:34You can talk to me

00:45:41Believe me

00:45:43I understand

00:45:44What do you mean?

00:45:51It's from surgery

00:45:52I was born with a heart defect

00:45:55Just like you

00:45:56Really?

00:45:59I didn't know anyone was like me

00:46:02Who is it?

00:46:23It's me

00:46:25Liken

00:46:33Hi

00:46:34Hi

00:46:37Uh, can I see Malia?

00:46:40Yeah.

00:47:08Daddy.

00:47:09Shh.

00:47:10It's okay, sweetie. I'm right here.

00:47:13Go back to sleep.

00:47:15No, stay.

00:47:19I can sleep on the couch.

00:47:21No, you stay too.

00:47:26It's all right with me.

00:47:40Yeah.

00:47:41No, no, no.

00:48:03Where do you think you're going?

00:48:04To find Malia?

00:48:06I already had the driver pick her up and take her to school.

00:48:11We're all alone.

00:48:14What about work?

00:48:17Time off for good behavior.

00:48:21Thank you again for taking care of her.

00:48:38Wasn't a problem.

00:48:42Apparently it is for her mother.

00:48:49Let me make it up to you.

00:48:55How are you gonna do that?

00:49:03Let me show you.

00:49:19You're like the neighbors.

00:49:29You know, I think more people should try coworkers with benefits.

00:49:43You know, I think more people should try coworkers with benefits.

00:49:57So you want to tell me what happened here?

00:50:03Not really.

00:50:09Sorry, I was just curious.

00:50:17Congenital heart defect.

00:50:19You don't want to hear about it.

00:50:20It's too much.

00:50:21Too much?

00:50:23This condition, these bills, this scar.

00:50:27My parents were incredible.

00:50:29They gave up everything for me.

00:50:32They drained their savings in what little life of wealth they built for themselves to try and make my life normal.

00:50:38And now they're gone.

00:50:40Car accident.

00:50:41Car accident.

00:50:42When I was a senior.

00:50:43In high school.

00:50:44I begged them to have a night to themselves for once and then.

00:50:49Alex.

00:50:50Sorry, way too much information.

00:50:53Especially from a fuck buddy.

00:50:55You don't need to know my sob story.

00:50:57You know that Malia's heart condition is congenital.

00:51:03I know.

00:51:04She told me.

00:51:05Yeah, well, she doesn't know everything.

00:51:08Look, I've never told anybody this, but Malia was born with her defect because Camilla, she took diet pills during the pregnancy so she wouldn't gain weight or lose out on modeling gigs.

00:51:25I only found out before it was too late.

00:51:28Oh my god.

00:51:30It's terrible.

00:51:32Truth is, she never really wanted to have a baby.

00:51:36I did.

00:51:37I was the one who wanted us to be a happy family.

00:51:41Turns out she was just in it for a meal ticket.

00:51:47I'm so sorry, Lincoln.

00:51:49The only reason she wants to get back together is for the money.

00:51:55Not for me, and certainly not for her daughter.

00:51:58You know, she's always been irresponsible, but this latest stunt, abandoning her daughter like that, it's...

00:52:07Have you thought about pursuing sole custody?

00:52:10I want to, but it's too risky.

00:52:13I mean, the courts usually side with the mother. I can't risk losing my daughter.

00:52:17They don't always...

00:52:22Malia told me this wasn't the first time Camilla's done something like this.

00:52:25What did she say to you?

00:52:27Camilla leaves her with her friends when she goes on work trips.

00:52:30It's dangerous, and clearly her emotional needs aren't being met.

00:52:34I think you could have a case here.

00:52:36I don't know.

00:52:38I don't want to put her through that.

00:52:40I mean, making her testify against her own mother?

00:52:43I can't do that.

00:52:45I know you want what's best for Malia.

00:52:48And sharing her with Camilla isn't it.

00:52:51Maybe you should just give Camilla what she really wants.

00:52:54And if that's money, fine.

00:52:57You have it.

00:52:59Malia deserves people in her life who care about her.

00:53:02You're right.

00:53:03Malia deserves better.

00:53:05I will talk to her this week.

00:53:22Seems like I owe you again.

00:53:27Greedy?

00:53:28I meant breakfast.

00:53:31You can cook?

00:53:33Yes, I can.

00:53:35For the right company.

00:53:45Ta-da!

00:53:46I should have known someone named Sugar would have such a sweet tooth.

00:53:59Shit.

00:54:00Fuck.

00:54:01I'm sorry.

00:54:02I didn't mean to.

00:54:03It's okay.

00:54:04Really, it's actually kind of nice to have someone call me by my real name again.

00:54:09Thank you again for everything.

00:54:12I know this wasn't part of the job description.

00:54:15And I'm sure dealing with my ex wasn't what you had in mind when my dad hired you.

00:54:24Right.

00:54:26Not exactly.

00:54:27He told you all of that?

00:54:33What are you, a miracle worker?

00:54:35A saint?

00:54:36Hardly.

00:54:39Look.

00:54:40If I tell you something, you promise not to say anything to anyone.

00:54:46Cross my inner hope to die.

00:54:47Your dad is paying me to do this.

00:54:52To help Lakin.

00:54:56That's what a job is.

00:54:57You work for the company.

00:54:58You know that, right?

00:54:59You don't understand.

00:55:00Your dad offered to pay off my student loans and cover my medical bills for life if I stuck

00:55:05it out as Lakin's assistant.

00:55:08He wanted me to keep him away from Camilla.

00:55:10By any means necessary, he said.

00:55:14Now that Lakin and I are-

00:55:15Fucking like rabbits.

00:55:17Coworkers with benefits?

00:55:19Excuse me?

00:55:21It just, it seems wrong not to tell him.

00:55:25Why?

00:55:26Because you're helping him get his shit together and getting paid for it?

00:55:28Seems like a win-win to me.

00:55:30It won't feel like that if he finds out.

00:55:32He'll think I'm just using him.

00:55:34Well, maybe he doesn't have to find out.

00:55:37Chase, I can't keep lying to him.

00:55:39I think-

00:55:42I think I'm falling for him.

00:55:47So more than co-workers with benefits.

00:55:58Thanks for meeting me.

00:56:00I wanted to talk to you about-

00:56:02Your new girlfriend?

00:56:04What?

00:56:05I know all about your little sleepover.

00:56:07You know, I'd appreciate it if you told me before bringing another woman into our daughter's life.

00:56:13Especially that one.

00:56:15What do you mean by that one?

00:56:17Alex actually stepped up when you abandoned her to go clubbing in LA.

00:56:20It was a work trip.

00:56:21Oh really?

00:56:22She's already proven to be way better at taking care of Malia than you've ever been.

00:56:36Which is actually why I'm here.

00:56:38Enough is enough.

00:56:39Enough is enough.

00:56:41I want sole custody.

00:56:43So this is it?

00:56:45You want to break up our family for that lying little-

00:56:49You don't want a family.

00:56:50You just want my money.

00:56:52I see right through you, Camilla.

00:56:53You think I want money?

00:56:54How much do you know about your little assistant?

00:56:58What do you mean?

00:57:03I hate to be the one to tell you this, but that girl is using you, Lakin.

00:57:11I overheard Jason Herr laughing about it in the break room earlier today.

00:57:19What do you mean she's using me?

00:57:23The only reason why she's working for you is because your dad promised to pay her medical bills if she kept you away from me.

00:57:32No, she wouldn't do that. That's not who she is.

00:57:35If you don't believe me, just ask your dad.

00:57:48Is it true?

00:57:50Lakin, what are you doing here?

00:57:52Did you hire Alex in order to keep tabs on me?

00:57:58It was for your own good.

00:58:00Do not give me that father knows best routine.

00:58:02This is a complete betrayal of my trust.

00:58:04Your personal issues were affecting not only the business, but our family.

00:58:08That is absurd.

00:58:10This has nothing to do with the company.

00:58:12Your inability to cut Camilla from your life seriously calls into question your abilities as a leader.

00:58:17As in does the way you've closed yourself off from any connection, romantic or...

00:58:21So what? I can't be CEO if I don't open my heart?

00:58:24That is bullshit.

00:58:26My love life is none of your business.

00:58:28But the well-being of my granddaughter still is.

00:58:30Alex is a smart girl with a good heart.

00:58:35She cares about Malia.

00:58:37And she challenges you.

00:58:39She is fired.

00:58:41Thanks to you.

00:58:42Thanks to you.

00:58:43What are you doing here?

00:58:44We need to talk.

00:58:45What are you doing here?

00:58:46We need to talk.

00:58:47We are?

00:58:48You want to explain what you were doing with your ex looking like you're getting back home?

00:58:53together?

00:58:54Is that why you haven't gotten custody of Malia?

00:58:57Because you still love her?

00:58:59And she just got caught up.

00:59:00You want to explain what you were doing with your ex looking like you're getting back together?

00:59:03What are you doing here?

00:59:08We need to talk.

00:59:12We are?

00:59:13You want to explain what you were doing with your ex looking like you're getting back together?

00:59:17together? Is that why you haven't gotten custody of Malia? Because you still love

00:59:22her? God, I'm so fucking stupid. Were you ever gonna tell me about your little deal

00:59:26with my dad? God, Alex, I trusted you. I told you things that I've never even told

00:59:35my family. And this whole time, you were just in it for the money. That was before

00:59:43anything happened between us. Lakin, I couldn't say no. That kind of money. You

00:59:49know my situation, but I never meant to hurt you. And fucking me what? That was just a

00:59:53way to ensure job security? That's all I am to you. Just a transaction? Of course

00:59:59not. How dare you? Why should I believe you? You know, you're just like her. I am

01:00:09not like Camilla. Lakin, I care about you. You're fired. And this thing between

01:00:15us, that's over too.

01:00:45you're fired. Let's go.

01:00:47Let's go.

01:00:49Rocky Road, huh? I've got the perfect pairing.

01:01:07You're gonna let me in or what? You are out of your mind. Showing up here is insane.

01:01:27Like you don't fucking love it. I don't. I've changed. I've heard that before. God, it turns

01:01:35me on when you act like you do. Alright, this is like a pandemic level of Postmates orders.

01:01:40Have you left your house yet? Well, I'm gonna try and get my old job back, so I'll probably

01:01:45be out of the house five days a week. Girl, losing your job and getting dumped on the same

01:01:50days a lot. You can take some time to mourn. I can't waste any more time on Lakin. I was

01:01:59so stupid thinking you actually cared about me. What's wrong with me? Nothing. Absolutely

01:02:19nothing. I'm sorry. I just... I think I want to be alone tonight.

01:02:38Hey. Text me, okay? Just cause we don't work together doesn't mean we're not friends.

01:02:48We will. I promise.

01:03:08I promise.

01:03:36Hey, um, I'd like to apply for a job.

01:03:52I'm used to work here.

01:03:54Hey, kid, come on, man, open up.

01:04:04You really need to give me a key.

01:04:06You want a drink?

01:04:10Yeah, where are your glasses?

01:04:12Second cabinet to the left.

01:04:21Heard you broke up with Alex.

01:04:25Can't really break up with someone you weren't dating.

01:04:28We were just fucking, and now we're not.

01:04:32I'm supposed to believe you don't give a shit.

01:04:33I don't.

01:04:38Is that why you're drowning your sorrows in whiskey?

01:04:41Very dramatic, by the way.

01:04:43What do you care?

01:04:45She's all yours now.

01:04:46Her little deal with dad is mute, and now you two can finally be together.

01:04:50Jesus Christ.

01:04:51Lakin, I'm gay.

01:04:51You're always so wrapped up in your own shit, you never thought to ask your brother about his own life.

01:05:02I'm sorry.

01:05:10Really.

01:05:13I can't believe I didn't...

01:05:16Are you good?

01:05:19I'm good.

01:05:24Suddenly, so many things make sense to me now.

01:05:42But you're always flirting with her, Alex.

01:05:44I was trying to light a fire under your ass.

01:05:45She's a good person, Lakin.

01:05:49She cares about you.

01:05:51A lot.

01:05:54She hated the deal.

01:05:55She hated lying to you.

01:05:58She knew you wouldn't trust her.

01:06:02And why should I?

01:06:04Because not everyone's Camilla.

01:06:06Look, it's not too late to make it right.

01:13:54Good morning, sleepyhead.

01:14:21It's good to see you awake.

01:14:23You had me worried there for a minute.

01:14:29I got you something.

01:14:44This almost makes me wish I hadn't made it.

01:14:50Where did all the flowers come from?

01:14:53It was Dad.

01:14:55You feel horrible he wasn't here after your episode, so he's been helping out with Muya while they can watch us over you here.

01:15:01Dad paid for everything your insurance didn't cover.

01:15:03Fancy pacemaker, extra care, you name it.

01:15:07He shouldn't have.

01:15:09You made a deal, Alex.

01:15:11Dad was good for it.

01:15:13Just done.

01:15:15I don't deserve it.

01:15:17What are you talking about?

01:15:19Look at me, Jace.

01:15:21I'm literally fucking scarred.

01:15:22Why should I?

01:15:23Hey, Alex.

01:15:25You deserve love.

01:15:27It's about time you get out of your own way and realize that.

01:15:33I'm sorry.

01:15:34I'm sorry.

01:15:35I just...

01:15:36I thought you might have to be a little bit.

01:15:37I'm sorry.

01:15:38I'm sorry.

01:15:39I thought you might need some help.

01:15:52Doctor said no unnecessary stress.

01:16:07Well, then you shouldn't have shown up

01:16:13Sorry

01:16:15Thank you, but I've got it from here Alex. You're recovering from surgery. Let me at least help you inside

01:16:36Malia asks about you all the time, you know

01:16:50She misses you everyone misses you my dad Jace

01:16:59And me

01:17:01It was wrong of me to accuse you of only wanting my money. I can see that now

01:17:09I've just I've spent my whole life thinking that I had to buy love and I've just been hurt so many times

01:17:15It's hard to comprehend that a woman could see me as anything other than a blank check

01:17:23What you told me about your parents and how they sacrificed everything for you

01:17:27Do you really think that what they did for you makes you a burden?

01:17:32They lost everything they had because of me

01:17:34Hey, but Alex don't you think that if they were given the chance to do it all over again, they would do it exactly the same?

01:17:41That's not sacrifice

01:17:44That's love

01:17:46I've been thinking about it a lot

01:17:49About what it means to give without expecting anything in return. I can't change the fact that I've been given more than most

01:17:56But what you've taught me what your parents have taught me is that

01:18:06Supporting someone it's not about an obligation or to force an outcome

01:18:11It is simply because you love them

01:18:17Miss Livingston

01:18:19You are the most selfless independent strong

01:18:26And beautiful woman that I have ever met in my entire life

01:18:31I can't stop

01:18:33It's true

01:18:36And since you clearly don't believe me

01:18:39I guess I'll just have to prove it to you

01:18:42Prove it? How?

01:18:43How?

01:18:52Is that?

01:18:54Scars

01:18:56Just like yours

01:18:59Are those tattoos?

01:19:01I wanted it to be permanent

01:19:03I love you, Alex

01:19:08I love every single perfect inch of you

01:19:16Will you please forgive me for being such an idiot?

01:19:21Please

01:19:21I love you too

01:19:22I love you too

01:19:26What do you do?

01:19:54What are you doing next week?

01:19:56I want to take you to a party.

01:19:59Another gala?

01:20:02Something like that.

01:20:04And you know the guest of honor very well.

01:20:07Who is it?

01:20:09You'll see.

01:20:16Happy birthday, dear Malia.

01:20:22Happy birthday to you.

01:20:33What did you wish for?

01:20:35A new mommy.

01:20:39One step at a time, sweetheart.

01:20:44I got you something.

01:20:47It might not be the biggest present you get, but I think you'll like it.

01:20:52I have one too.

01:20:55Just like you.

01:20:56Just like you.

01:20:57Just like you.

01:20:58Just like you.

01:20:59I love you.

01:21:04I love you.

01:21:05I love you.

01:21:06I love you.

01:21:07I love you.

01:21:08I love you.

01:21:09I love you.

01:21:11I love you.

01:21:12I love you.

01:21:13Thanks.

01:21:14Don't hold back, tonight is all we have

01:21:17The sky is going black, so come with us

01:21:22Don't hold back, tonight is all we have

01:21:27The sky is going black, so come with us

01:21:32Don't hold back
