00:09:07to south korea you're gonna need that coming
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
00:09:27shifting our operations to detroit might create bottlenecks we just can't afford right now
00:09:33so what we're just going to bleed cash while you evaluate
00:09:37i need solutions faster not more excuses people
00:09:41we're exploring alternatives nothing definitive yet
00:09:48um sorry to interrupt
00:09:53but have you considered splitting freight between detroit and cleveland
00:09:56and using your existing rail contracts to offset the overflow
00:10:02so 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
00:10:12cleveland's underutilized and you're already paying for the rail infrastructure
00:10:17it wouldn't solve all of your problems but it could keep the detroit bottleneck from shutting you down
00:10:21entirely actually that could work worth the 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

00:20:09Looks like we're almost there.
00:20:25Remember, this is a work event.
00:20:35The whole board is going to be there.
00:20:37It's easy on the drinks.
00:20:48As I say, not as I do.
00:20:57You ready?
00:20:58I'm not going to be there.
00:21:08I'm not going to be there.
00:21:13I'm not going to be there.
00:21:26I'm not going to be there.
00:21:32So, Miss Livingston, I was looking over the official guest list for the party tonight, and you lied to me.
00:21:46Your name's not Alexandra, is it?
00:21:51I thought only HR saw that.
00:21:55Oh, don't be embarrassed, sugar. I think that's a very sweet name.
00:21:59I'm not embarrassed, it's just private.
00:22:06My parents were the only ones who called me that.
00:22:11I see.
00:22:14I apologize. I didn't know. I didn't mean to upset you.
00:22:21Hey, Alex.
00:22:25I mean it. I'm sorry.
00:22:29I think I owe you a drink. I'll be right back.
00:22:45Look at you. You look stunning.
00:22:49Let'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?
00:23:02We always want to put a camera in touch.
00:23:06It's just the way you've never let me go.
00:23:10Why do we feel like we're not good enough?
00:23:14Why don't we lose all of this camera in touch?
00:23:17For you.
00:23:19Hey, bro.
00:23:20Is that for me?
00:23:21Get your own drink, bro.
00:23:22And maybe you're on date while you're at it.
00:23:27Date?
00:23:28I knew it.
00:23:29My 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.
00:23:48Do not be weird about this.
00:23:50Oh, I'm being weird?
00:23:51Everyone else is dancing.
00:23:53It would look strange if we didn't.
00:23:55And besides,
00:23:57it's not like we're attracted to each other, right?
00:23:59Right.
00:23:59Right.
00:24:14So,
00:24:15something going on between you and my brother?
00:24:20Jase?
00:24:21Of course not. That was nothing.
00:24:23It didn't look like nothing.
00:24:26If I didn't know any better,
00:24:27I'd say you sound jealous.
00:24:29Don't be ridiculous.
00:24:32I'm just
00:24:33looking out for my assistant.
00:24:37Well, I doubt he's interested.
00:24:39He's,
00:24:40you know.
00:24:42He's what?
00:24:45You don't know?
00:24:49Never mind.
00:24:50So,
00:24:51you guys aren't that close then?
00:24:53Well, excuse me if I don't have time
00:24:54to listen to my brother's sexual exploits.
00:24:56If you hadn't noticed,
00:24:58I'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,
00:25:11Miss Livingston.
00:25:12It's unprofessional.
00:25:16What?
00:25:17This?
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.
00:25:31We're rarely touching.
00:25:37Lincoln.
00:25:41Dad.
00:25:42Well, some of our board members are already here.
00:25:45I need you to make your rounds.
00:25:48Miss Livingston?
00:25:50Shall we?
00:25:56Well, Mr. Harris was just saying
00:25:58that he was very impressed with your recent progress.
00:26:02Wonderful to see that you're finally settling in, Lincoln.
00:26:08Miss Livingston has been a welcomed addition.
00:26:10Oh, yes.
00:26:12Detroit and Cleveland.
00:26:14Nice work.
00:26:16Yes, and we're also improving transit times.
00:26:18I'll actually be in New York next week.
00:26:20Team there and finalizing everything, making sure everything's running smoothly.
00:26:34I make it.
00:26:35What are you doing here?
00:26:37I just thought I'd stop by.
00:26:38I thought you could use the moral support.
00:26:41Where's Malia?
00:26:41I got a babysitter.
00:26:45I think everyone knows Camilla, Malia's mother.
00:26:51Who's this?
00:26:52No one.
00:26:54Just my assistant.
00:26:55Alex.
00:26:58Nice to meet you, Alice.
00:27:02As I was saying, the transit time's in New York.
00:27:04Oh, come on, Lincoln.
00:27:06Don't be a bore.
00:27:07It'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.
00:27:16You don't mind if I steal them, do you?
00:27:28What are you doing?
00:27:30Are you drunk?
00:27:31The 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.
00:27:42I'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.
00:28:16Excuse me, gentlemen.
00:28:21Doesn't this feel nice?
00:28:24I know you miss this.
00:28:30This is a work event, Camilla.
00:28:32Lax, Lincoln.
00:28:34So tense.
00:28:37I 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?
00:28:48Have you given any more thought to the conversation we had the other day?
00:28:50Malia's getting older.
00:28:54It's only getting harder to take care of her, especially with our 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.
00:29:21Don't tell me you didn't enjoy that.
00:29:28Lincoln, 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.
00:29:51Not having any fun?
00:30:13Let's see if we can change that.
00:30:28It's my mom's 60th birthday, right?
00:30:31And her sorority sisters are drinking me under the table.
00:30:35And Agnes, her old roommate, slept with the bartender.
00:30:38So it'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.
00:30:59Okay.
00:30:59Arturo.
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.
00:31:21You 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.
00:31:28Interrupt.
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 went attracted to me.
00:31:46I'm not.
00:31:48Oh, yeah?
00:31:49Yeah.
00:31:51Liar.
00:31:58I didn't expect you to have tattoos.
00:32:15Yeah, it was a lot.
00:32:17You don't know about me.
00:32:26That cost $8,000.
00:32:28Yeah, my fucking money.
00:32:31Now get the hell over here.
00:32:33Is that a scar?
00:32:42It's odd.
00:32:46Fuck me.
00:32:47You're welcome.
00:32:48I'm not.
00:32:49Leave us as a mother away.
00:32:51Tonight that we both were okay.
00:32:53I want to be with you.
00:32:55I want to be with you.
00:32:57We can let this slip away.
00:32:59You know, I won't give a stay.
00:33:01Because I want to be with you.
00:33:03I want to be with you.
00:33:05I don't run away.
00:33:06We can let this go too waste.
00:33:09I don't want to hold it up.
00:33:11I lose.
00:33:13Don't let this go too waste.
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...
00:33:59I guess...
00:34:01I'll see you on Monday.
00:34:15Morning.
00:34:21Morning.
00:34:30I can't believe I risked my job
00:34:33for a guy who doesn't give two shits about me.
00:34:36It's not your fault.
00:34:37Lincoln 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...
00:34:44He's a soft spot.
00:34:46Lincoln's got some serious trust issues.
00:34:49Like, he needs therapy about it.
00:34:52Camilla really messed him up.
00:34:54Look, I consider myself a feminist, right?
00:34:57That bitch is a gold digger.
00:35:00I mean, she was basically using him
00:35:01to bankroll her modeling career.
00:35:03Took him, like, three years to come to his senses,
00:35:05and when he finally did,
00:35:05oh, surprise, surprise,
00:35:07guess 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.
00:35:22Look.
00:35:23I gotta run to a meeting.
00:35:25How about you come over for dinner tonight?
00:35:27Seven?
00:35:28I'll text you the details.
00:35:31Yeah. I'm down.
00:35:32Great.
00:35:33I can'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.
00:36:04You know, like, normal business partners and not...
00:36:06Family members.
00:36:08Exactly.
00:36:12Did you, uh, 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,
00:36:26she 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.
00:36:49Alex?
00:36:56Lincoln?
00:36:57You made it!
00:36:58Didn't realize you were joining us, Alex.
00:37:25Me neither.
00:37:28It's okay, I don't like asparagus either.
00:37:40My dad says I have to eat it because it's healthy for me.
00:37:44He's right.
00:37:45It is.
00:37:47Look on the bright side.
00:37:48At least it's not Brussels sprouts, am I right?
00:37:59That was delicious.
00:38:00All right.
00:38:04Miss Livingston.
00:38:05A word.
00:38:08Uh, Mr. Blainford, about the other night, I know the gala was a mess with Camilla.
00:38:20Alex, I've seen a change in my son.
00:38:24Really?
00:38:25It's the first time I've seen him smile in years.
00:38:28Keep doing what you're doing.
00:38:32You 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...
00:38:40Bye.
00:38:42Wanna watch Disney with us?
00:38:44Uh, you have a spelling test to study for, remember?
00:38:47But I want to hang out with Alex.
00:38:50Please, Daddy, please.
00:38:56Works for me.
00:39:09I'll be right back.
00:39:11Hey.
00:39:14Did you live?
00:39:16Come on.
00:39:17I'll be right back.
00:39:47She likes you, you know?
00:39:56She's not normally so comfortable with strangers.
00:40:00I like her, too.
00:40:01So, are we gonna figure out what happened, or did I just fuck myself out of a job?
00:40:13Your job is not in danger.
00:40:20Okay, that doesn't totally answer my question.
00:40:23What do you want me to say, Alex?
00:40:30I can't get involved with my assistant, not with the board watching my every move.
00:40:33But I also can't accept the fact that Saturday night was the last time that we'll ever...
00:40:41I thought I did something wrong.
00:40:45I want you, Alex.
00:40:46What if we separate church and state?
00:40:59At work, we're professional, but outside of work, we're...
00:41:07Unprofessional?
00:41:09I think the light is like...
00:41:11I'm asleep, walking through all of my problems, I know.
00:41:17I can't make it through.
00:41:21Every night is the same.
00:41:23I keep running fast, left and right.
00:41:26Wondering where my head's gone now.
00:41:29I'm asleep, walking through all of my problems, I know.
00:41:38Malia, hurry, come on.
00:41:39Come on, come on.
00:41:41Let's go, Malia, come on.
00:41:43Mom!
00:41:44Faster!
00:41:47Hey, uh, Lakin's not here right now.
00:41:50He just landed in New York.
00:41:51New York.
00:41:52I know, but it turns out I can't take Malia at all this week.
00:41:56Going to L.A. Business trip.
00:41:59So, she's all yours.
00:42:01Oh, uh, I'm not really here to be child care.
00:42:05I'm sure you'll figure something out.
00:42:09Mommy loves you, Malia.
00:42:14I'll see you in two weeks, okay?
00:42:19Why doesn't you want to be with me?
00:42:22Hey, hey, it's okay, Malia.
00:42:26Alex, what's going on?
00:42:39Hey, we have a problem.
00:42:41Camilla just dropped Malia off at the office and left.
00:42:43She said she can't take care of this week after all.
00:42:46What?
00:42:47Let me talk to her.
00:42:52Hi, honey.
00:42:53Are you okay?
00:42:54Hi.
00:42:55Listen, uh, Mommy had to go away for a little bit, but, uh...
00:42:59I'm going to be back tonight, and in the meantime, Alex is going to take care of you, okay?
00:43:02Everything is fine.
00:43:03I love you.
00:43:04I love you, too.
00:43:10I should have known she'd pull a stunt like this.
00:43:13So much for that family time she wanted.
00:43:15I will book the first flight out this evening.
00:43:18Okay.
00:43:18Okay.
00:43:20Bye.

00:43:37I'm sorry.
00:43:39You'd have nothing to be sorry about.

00:47:10It's okay, sweetie. I'm right here. Go back to sleep.
00:47:14Oh, stay.
00:47:18I can sleep on the couch. No,
00:47:22you stay too.
00:47:26It's alright with me.
00:47:36Where do you think you're going?
00:47:56To find Malina.
00:48:00Where do you think you're going?
00:48:04To find Malina.
00:48:08I already had the driver pick her up and take her to school.
00:48:12We're all alone.
00:48:16What about work?
00:48:20Time off for good behavior.
00:48:24Thank you again for taking care of her.
00:48:36Wasn't a problem.
00:48:40Apparently, it is for her mother.
00:48:44Let me make it up to you.
00:48:52How are you gonna do that?
00:48:56Let me show you.
00:49:00I don't know if I can take it.
00:49:02Must be a monster in my eyes.
00:49:04Let me show you.
00:49:06Lately feels like I've been faking.
00:49:08Think there's a stranger here instead.
00:49:12There you have it.
00:49:14Night, night.
00:49:16I lie awake.
00:49:18One of the escape fears.
00:49:20Hold tight.
00:49:22The air is changing.
00:49:24Let's run away.
00:49:28You're like the neighbors.
00:49:30Somewhere away from all these nightmares.
00:49:34Where nobody can find me.
00:49:38Let's run away.
00:49:40You know, I think more people should try coworkers with benefits.
00:50:00So you wanna tell me what happened here?
00:50:08Not really.
00:50:10Sorry, I, um...
00:50:14I was just curious.
00:50:18Congenital heart defect.
00:50:19You don't wanna hear about it.
00:50:20It's too much.
00:50:21Too much?
00:50:22This condition.
00:50:24These bills.
00:50:25This scar.
00:50:27My parents were incredible.
00:50:30They 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.
00:50:42When I was a senior.
00:50:43In high school.
00:50:44I begged them to have a night to themselves for once and then.
00:50:48Alex.
00:50:49Sorry.
00:50:50Way too much information.
00:50:52Especially from a fuck buddy.
00:50:54You 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.
00:51:07Look, 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.
00:51:38I was the one who wanted us to be a happy family.
00:51:41Turns out she was just in it for a meal ticket.
00:51:44I'm so sorry, Lincoln.
00:51:49The only reason she wants to get back together is for the money.
00:51:55Not for me.
00:51:56Certainly 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.
00:52:13The courts usually side with the mother.
00:52:15I 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.
00:52:31It's dangerous and clearly her emotional needs aren't being met.
00:52:35I think you could have a case here.
00:52:37I 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...
00:52:44I 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.
00:52:55And 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.
00:53:13It seems like I owe you again.
00:53:26Greedy?
00:53:28I meant breakfast.
00:53:31You can cook?
00:53:33Yes.
00:53:34I can.
00:53:35For the right company.
00:53:36For the right company.
00:53:45Ta-da!
00:53:46I should've known someone near Sugar would have such a sweet tooth.
00:53:56Shit.
00:53:57Fuck.
00:53:58I'm sorry.
00:53:59I didn't mean to.
00:54:00It's okay.
00:54:01Really.
00:54:02It's actually kind of nice to have someone call me by my real name again.
00:54:07Thank you again for everything.
00:54:09I know this wasn't part of the job description.
00:54:12And I'm sure dealing with my ex wasn't what you had in mind when my dad hired you.
00:54:17Right.
00:54:18Not exactly.
00:54:19He told you all of that?
00:54:20What are you, a miracle worker?
00:54:21A saint?
00:54:22Hardly.
00:54:23Look.
00:54:24If I tell you something, you promise not to say anything to anyone.
00:54:26Cross my eyes.
00:54:27No.
00:54:28You're wrong.
00:54:29I'm sorry.
00:54:30I'm sorry.
00:54:31I'm sorry.
00:54:32I'm sorry.
00:54:33I'm sorry.
00:54:34I'm sorry.
00:54:35I'm sorry.
00:54:36I'm sorry.
00:54:37I'm sorry.
00:54:38I'm sorry.
00:54:39I'm sorry.
00:54:40I'm sorry.
00:54:41I'm sorry.
00:54:42I'm sorry.
00:54:43I'm sorry.
00:54:44I'm sorry.
00:54:45I'm sorry.
00:54:46Cross my inner hope to die.
00:54:51Your dad is paying me to do this, to help Lakin.
00:54:56That's what a job is. You work for the company. You know that, right?
00:54:59You don't understand. Your dad offered to pay off my student loans and cover my medical bills for life if I stuck it out as Lakin's assistant.
00:55:08He wanted me to keep him away from Camilla by any means necessary, he said.
00:55:13Now that Lakin and I are...
00:55:15Fucking like rabbits.
00:55:18Coworkers with benefits, excuse me.
00:55:22It just, it seems wrong not to tell him.
00:55:25Why? Because you're helping him get his shit together and getting paid for it? Seems like a win-win to me.
00:55:30It won't feel like that if he finds out, he'll think I'm just using him.
00:55:34Well, maybe he doesn't have to find out.
00:55:36Chase, I can't keep lying to him. I think... I think I'm falling for him.
00:55:47So more than co-workers with benefits.
00:55:49Thanks for meeting me. I wanted to talk to you about...
00:56:02Your new girlfriend?
00:56:04What?
00:56:06I know all about your little sleepover.
00:56:09You 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.
00:56:21It was a work trip.
00:56:23Oh really?
00:56:33She's already proven to be way better at taking care of Malia than you've ever been.
00:56:37Which is actually why I'm here.
00:56:38Enough is enough.
00:56:41I want sole custody.
00:56:44This is it?
00:56:46You wanna break up our family for that lying little...
00:56:49You don't want a family.
00:56:51You just want my money.
00:56:52I see right through you, Camilla.
00:56:54You think I want money?
00:56:56How 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...
00:57:08That girl is using you, Lakin.
00:57:15I overheard Jason Herr laughing about it in the break room earlier today.
00:57:21What do you mean she's using me?
00:57:24The only reason why she's working for you...
00:57:27Is because your dad promised to pay her medical bills if she kept you away from me.
00:57:31No, she wouldn't do that. That's not who she is.
00:57:36If you don't believe me...
00:57:38Just ask your dad.
00:57:39Just 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?
00:57:55It was for your own good.
00:58:00Do not give me that Father Knows Best routine.
00:58:03This is a complete betrayal of my trust.
00:58:05Your personal issues were affecting not only the business, but our family.
00:58:09That is absurd. This 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 it does the way you've closed yourself off from any connection, romantic or...
00:58:22So what? I can't be CEO if I don't open my heart?
00:58:25That is bullshit!
00:58:27My love life is none of your business.
00:58:29But the well-being of my granddaughter still is.
00:58:33Alex is a smart girl with a good heart.
00:58:36She cares about Malia.
00:58:38And she challenges you.
00:58:40She's fired.
00:58:42Thanks to you.
00:58:47What are you doing here?
00:59:09We need to talk.
00:59:12We are?
00:59:13We are?
00:59:14You want to explain what you were doing with your ex looking like you're getting back together?
00:59:19Is that why you haven't gotten custody of Malia?
00:59:22Because you still love her?
00:59:24God, it was so fucking stupid.
00:59:25Were you ever going to tell me about your little deal with my dad?
00:59:30God, Alex, I...
00:59:32I trusted you.
00:59:34I told you things that I've never even told my family.
00:59:37And this whole time...
00:59:39You were just in it for the money.
00:59:40I...
00:59:42That was before anything happened between us.
00:59:46Lakin, I couldn't say no.
00:59:48That kind of money...
00:59:50You know my situation, but I never meant to hurt you.
00:59:52And fucking me, what?
00:59:53That was just a way to ensure job security?
00:59:56That's all I am to you.
00:59:57Just a transaction?
00:59:59Of course not.
01:00:02How dare you?
01:00:04Why should I believe you?
01:00:06You know, you're just like her.
01:00:08I am not like Camilla.
01:00:11Lakin, I care about you.
01:00:13You're fired.
01:00:15And this thing between us?
01:00:16That's over too.
01:00:17He is over too.
01:00:47Let's go.
01:01:12Rocky Road, huh?
01:01:14I've got the perfect pairing.
01:01:18You're gonna let me in or what?
01:01:24You are out of your mind.
01:01:27Showing up here is insane.
01:01:28Like you don't fucking love it.
01:01:30I don't.
01:01:33I've changed.
01:01:34I've heard that before.
01:01:36God, it turns me on when you act like you're doing it.
01:01:38Alright, this is like a pandemic level of Postmates orders.
01:01:40Have you left your house yet?
01:01:42Well, I'm gonna try and get my old job back,
01:01:44so I'll probably be out of the house five days a week.
01:01:48Girl, losing your job and getting dumped on the same day is a lot.
01:01:51You can take some time to mourn.
01:01:56I can't waste any more time on Lincoln.
01:01:58I was so stupid thinking he actually cared about me.
01:02:15What's wrong with me?
01:02:16Nothing.
01:02:19Absolutely nothing.
01:02:24I'm sorry.
01:02:29I just...
01:02:31I think I want to be alone tonight.
01:02:34Hey.
01:02:42Text me, okay?
01:02:44Just cause we don't work together doesn't mean we're not friends.
01:02:49I will.
01:02:51I promise.
01:03:04I will.
01:03:07She wants to be alone.
01:03:08Please.
01:03:10I will.
01:03:12I will.
01:03:14I will.
01:03:16I will.
01:03:19I will.
01:03:20Let's go.
01:03:50Hey, um, I'd like to apply for a job.
01:03:53I used to work here.
01:03:54Hey, kid, come on, man, open up.
01:04:05You really need to give me a key.
01:04:09You want a drink?
01:04:10Yeah, where are your glasses?
01:04:12Second cabinet to the left.
01:04:20I heard you broke up with Alex.
01:04:26Can'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.
01:04:36I don't.
01:04:38Is that why you're drowning your sorrows in whiskey?
01:04:41Very dramatic, by the way.
01:04:44What do you care?
01:04:45She's all yours now.
01:04:47Her little deal with dad is mute,
01:04:48and now you two can finally be together.
01:04:50Jesus Christ, Lakin, I'm gay.
01:04:56Yeah.
01:04:59You're always so wrapped up in your own shit,
01:05:00you never thought to ask your brother about his own life.
01:05:02I'm sorry.
01:05:11Really.
01:05:13I can't believe I didn't...
01:05:18Are you good?
01:05:23I'm good.
01:05:32Suddenly, 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.
01:05:47She's a good person, Lakin.
01:05:50She cares about you.
01:05:51A lot.
01:05:54She hated the deal.
01:05:56She hated lying to you.
01:05:58She knew you wouldn't trust her.
01:06:02And why should I?
01:06:05Because not everyone's Camilla.
01:06:11Look, it's not too late to make it right.
01:06:16Call her.
01:06:32She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:35She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:37She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:38She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:39She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:40She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:41She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:42She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:43She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:06:44She's a good person, Lakin, I'm not too late to make it right.
01:07:15Fuck him.
01:07:33So, that's $250,000 a year.
01:07:37Every year.
01:07:38Until Malia's 18th birthday.
01:07:41So, in nine more years then?
01:07:43Eight.
01:07:45You don't even know how old your daughter is?
01:08:06Pleasure doing business with you.
01:08:12You don't want to say goodbye?
01:08:14She's upstairs waiting.
01:08:15I can't.
01:08:16I have a flight to Miami in an hour.
01:08:18Give her a kiss for me, will you?
01:08:20Good fucking riddance.
01:08:33I'm proud of you, son.
01:08:35It only took me a decade to cut her out of my life for good.
01:08:38I am going to speak to the board in the morning, all right?
01:08:43If you gentlemen will excuse me, I have a granddaughter to comfort.
01:08:53Congrats, bro.
01:08:55Let's celebrate.
01:08:56Come on, we should be celebrating.
01:09:08Ding dong, the witch agreed to settle.
01:09:11And now Malia has to live the rest of her life, knowing that her mother didn't care enough about her to fight for custody.
01:09:20On the positive side, Malia's all yours now.
01:09:23You're going to be CEO in a month.
01:09:25What else could you want?
01:09:26Maybe a certain little assistant that helped you get custody.
01:09:32She blocked my number.
01:09:35And no, I'm not going to show up to her doorstep on my knees begging for her to take me back.
01:09:40It would make me look insane.
01:09:42Well, insane or romantic.
01:09:45She doesn't want to speak to me.
01:09:49And I don't blame her.
01:09:51Well, I can't guarantee she'll take you back.
01:09:53But I may have a hot tip on where you can find her.
01:09:58She's working here again?
01:10:02Is that why you brought me here?
01:10:03Go get her.
01:10:15Hi.
01:10:20Ready to order?
01:10:21I'll come back in a few more minutes.
01:10:30Alex.
01:10:32Lincoln?
01:10:34What are you doing here?
01:10:37Jace brought me.
01:10:39To celebrate.
01:10:41I want full custody.
01:10:44Congratulations.
01:10:44Yeah, I, um, I couldn't have done it without you.
01:10:50Uh.
01:10:50Alex, I, um, I want to apologize.
01:10:54I made a huge mistake.
01:10:56Thanks.
01:10:57I actually need to take my break right now.
01:11:05Alex, hey.
01:11:10You okay?
01:11:13I'm okay.
01:11:15move.
01:11:16Someone call 911.
01:11:18Help.
01:11:19It's okay.
01:11:20Any update?
01:11:44There's only so much that they'll tell me right now, but...
01:11:47The doctor said that she's in critical condition.
01:11:51They're gonna operate tomorrow.
01:11:54And then her chances are 50-50.
01:11:57Jesus.
01:11:59Her heart must be overwhelmed by all the stress.
01:12:03The stress that I fucking caused her.
01:12:07And seeing me at the restaurant, that couldn't have helped either.
01:12:10I should have just left her alone.
01:12:12It's not your fault, Lincoln.
01:12:15And now Alex could...
01:12:17She could...
01:12:18Hey, stop.
01:12:19Don't talk like that.
01:12:21Oh my god, Alex. You're awake. Jesus Christ. I was so worried. I thought...
01:12:25I thought that I might have lost you.
01:12:29Oh my god, Alex. You're awake. Jesus Christ. I was so worried. I thought...
01:12:35I thought that I might have lost you.
01:12:37Thank you. I'm fine. You should leave.
01:12:39What? What are you talking about? I...
01:12:41I'm here because I care about you. Because...
01:12:43Because you feel guilty.
01:12:45awake. Jesus Christ. I was so worried. I thought that I might have lost you. Thank you. I'm
01:12:58fine. You should leave. What? What are you talking about? Lakin, why are you here? I'm
01:13:07here because I care about you. Because you feel guilty. This is what you do. You throw
01:13:13money at your problems to make yourself feel better. No, it's not like that. I don't
01:13:18want to be your charity case, Lakin. I don't want to feel like I owe you or anyone again.
01:13:26You are not a burden. I don't think that. I'd like you to go.
01:13:43Morning, sleepyhead.
01:14:13Morning, sleepyhead. It's good to see you awake. You had me worried there for a minute.
01:14:29I got you something.
01:14:31Hey. This almost makes me wish I hadn't made it. Where did all the flowers come from?
01:14:52It was dad. You felt horrible he wasn't here after your episode, so he's been helping out
01:14:59with Mulya while Lakin watches over you here. Dad paid for everything your insurance didn't
01:15:03cover. Fancy pacemaker, extra care, you name it. He shouldn't have. You made a deal, Alex.
01:15:12Dad was good for it. It's done. I don't deserve it. What are you talking about? Look at me,
01:15:20Jace. I'm literally fucking scarred. Why should I? Hey, Alex. You deserve love. It's about
01:15:30time you get out of your own way and realize that.
01:15:37I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. Fuck. I'm sorry. I just... I thought you might need
01:16:04some help. Doctor said no unnecessary stress. Well, then you shouldn't have shown up.
01:16:14Sorry. Thank you, but I've got it from here. Alex, you're recovering from surgery. Let me at least
01:16:21help you inside.
01:16:23Malia asks about you all the time, you know.
01:16:51She misses you.
01:16:53Everyone misses you.
01:16:55My dad, Jace, and me.
01:17:04It was wrong of me to accuse you of only wanting my money.
01:17:07I can see that now.
01:17:10I've spent my whole life thinking that I had to buy love, and I've just been hurt so many
01:17:14times.
01:17:15It's hard to comprehend that a woman could see me as anything other than a blank check.
01:17:21What you told me about your parents and how they sacrificed everything for you, do you
01:17:28really think that what they did for you makes you a burden?
01:17:32They lost everything they had because of me.
01:17:35Yeah, but Alex, don't you think that if they were given the chance to do it all over again,
01:17:39they would do it exactly the same?
01:17:41That's not sacrifice.
01:17:43That's love.
01:17:45I've been thinking about it a lot, about what it means to give without expecting anything
01:17:53in return.
01:17:54I can't change the fact that I've been given more than most.
01:17:59But what you've taught me, what your parents have taught me, is that supporting someone,
01:18:07it's not about an obligation or to force an outcome, it is simply because you love them.
01:18:18Miss Livingston, you are the most selfless, independent, strong, and beautiful woman that I have ever
01:18:28met in my entire life.
01:18:30I can't stop.
01:18:33It's true.
01:18:36And since you clearly don't believe me, I guess I'll just have to prove it to you.
01:18:41Prove it?
01:18:42How?
01:18:43Is that...
01:18:45Scars.
01:18:47Just like yours.
01:18:59Are those tattoos?
01:19:01I wanted it to be permanent.
01:19:06I 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?
01:19:20Please.
01:19:25I love you too.
01:19:46What are you doing next week?
01:19:55I want to take you to a party.
01:19:58Another gala?
01:20:00Something like that.
01:20:02And you know the guest of honor very well.
01:20:05Who is it?
01:20:07You'll see.
01:20:08Happy birthday dear Malia.
01:20:21Happy birthday to you.
01:20:26What'd you wish for?
01:20:33A new mommy.
01:20:40One 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.
01:20:56Just like you.
01:21:14Don't hold back, tonight, oh yeah, the sky is going black, so come with us, don't hold back.
