Wedding Date Secret
Transcript
00:00That I'm focused on work, that I don't need to parade around a stranger.
00:11Delaney? Mom, she's my ex for a reason.
00:19Actually, you know what?
00:22I think I found a day you're really gonna like.
00:27I gotta go.
00:30I'm gonna be with you.
00:32Ain't tryna puff me like a nigga in a rica.
00:34Moving through this shit like you TA with a cheer card.
00:36You claim that he love me, but you're fucking out of free cards.
00:39Like, I just wanna dance all night.
00:41Can't nobody do it just like I.
00:44Like, you got just what I like.
00:46Come on, baby, let's kiss on fire.
00:49What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
00:51What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
00:54What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
00:56Just stay apart, baby. I'ma get you paid.
00:59Just stay apart, baby.
01:00What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
01:01I'ma get you paid.
01:02I'll be gonna do it. Tell me what you like.
01:03What you wanna do? Tell me what you like.
01:06Just stay apart, baby. I'ma get you.
01:08I'ma get you. I'ma get you in a street.
01:10Looking for something?
01:11A date to my sister's wedding.
01:13I'll double your best payday.
01:16best payday and I'll even let you pick our fake backstory. Lucky for you, I do
01:26escort work on the side. Give my agency a call. I'm yours so long as you pay.
01:46Piper? That's me. You must be Tate. Thanks for meeting me at the service entrance. The agency
02:02filled you in, yes? You need to be at the top of your game tonight. My mother will be watching
02:08me like a hawk. Hopefully with you there, she won't be trying to set me up with anyone.
02:12Of course, Mr. Young. You can trust me. I'm a professional. Well, I mean, you're an escort.
02:18It doesn't exactly require an MBA. And hiring an escort doesn't exactly require more than
02:24a dick and a credit card. Really just a credit card. That's funny. I thought I paid for a
02:30date, not an attitude. Two for the price to one. Lucky you.
02:42So, what's the story of how we met? You said you're a professional, right? Make something
02:50up. If we want to pull this off, we're going to have to have a story. You said yourself
02:55that your mother's going to be watching. Unless you want me to tell her the truth.
03:02Look, I realize that some of your other clients may find those kinds of jokes charming, but I
03:07need you to take this seriously, okay? My reputation's at stake here.
03:12You know, on my way over here, I was wondering, why does Tate Young, the most eligible bachelor
03:17in the city, need an escort? And I'm starting to understand why.
03:22Tate! You came!
03:24It's your rehearsal dinner. What'd you expect?
03:27Well, you always seem to find some excuse.
03:31And you are?
03:32It's nice to meet you, Ariana. I'm Piper.
03:39So?
03:40How did you two meet?
03:43Don't worry, babe. I'll tell her.
03:46I hosted a local artist charity auction last month, and the Young Family Foundation bid
03:50on a painting for their lobby. I supervised the installation, and Tate was there.
03:56The rest is history.
03:58Wow. Tate never usually spends time at the foundation.
04:02It was our father's passion project, but Tate tends to get his priorities mixed up.
04:06Oh. Mom's looking for you. I told her you were over here, so good luck.
04:13I'm gonna go make out with Dave.
04:20You know, I gotta say, it's a little scary how good of a liar you are.
04:24Oh, Tate, we've got to work on your trust issues.
04:27That whole story was true.
04:30Aside from meeting you, of course.
04:32Well, you're about to see where I got those trust issues from.
04:37Hello. I don't believe you're on our guest list.
04:41Mom, come on. Is that anyone who treat my date?
04:44It's lovely to meet you, Mrs. Young. I was just telling your daughter that you bid on a painting at a local art auction I held last month.
04:53You hosted that? That painting spoke to me immediately.
04:56And I was especially intrigued with how the artist signed it.
05:01No name, just for Elizabeth.
05:04A dedication to the artist's mother.
05:06Must be nice for a mother to feel appreciated.
05:09I tried to find the artist, but if that artist appreciates their anonymity...
05:16Oh. And how about you, dear? Do you appreciate your anonymity as well?
05:22I'm an open book. Ask me anything.
05:26Oh. Where did you grow up?
05:29New York.
05:30Did you attend college?
05:31Princeton. College and graduate school for my MFA.
05:35Whoa.
05:36Poor dear. You must be drowning in student debt.
05:40Actually, my family didn't have to take out any loans, thank goodness.
05:43Oh. So you're comfortable.
05:45My mother was at the top of her field, so yes, we were comfortable.
05:50I see. We'll all have to have lunch together.
05:53Um, my mother is unfortunately no longer with us.
05:59All right. Okay. Enough with the third degree. I think Piper deserves a breather.
06:03All right. I'll give her a tour of the house.
06:07Nice meeting you.
06:09You too.
06:18Okay. So we've established that you're an enormous dork, which is probably why you have a hard time with the ladies.
06:26I prefer to focus on my work.
06:29Hmm. You know they have support groups for that kind of thing.
06:32Stop. You sound like my mother.
06:35She's been going to extremes to try to get me to settle down.
06:38Oh. What kind of extremes?
06:40Trying to get me back together with my ex.
06:43Speaking of the...
06:45Tate, baby. I missed you.
06:47Delaney? This is...
06:49Piper. His girlfriend.
06:52Delaney Hughes.
06:54His first love.
06:55Is that right?
06:57See, you're still trying to replace me, huh?
06:59What app did you find this one on?
07:01Piper is in the arts.
07:03That's where we met.
07:05And Delaney here is a lawyer at the firm.
07:07T, that's not all I am, and you know it.
07:09We dated all throughout high school and college.
07:12And then we broke up.
07:13Hmm?
07:14Delaney, why are you here?
07:15Oh, don't be like that.
07:17You know Josie and I have always been close.
07:19Why, I'm practically family.
07:21And who knows?
07:22Maybe someday I will be.
07:23Delaney, what are you doing here?
07:25Thank God I came, right?
07:27I mean, it doesn't look like there was much of a turnout.
07:30We kept the guest list intimate.
07:32We didn't want anything to...
07:33Expensive?
07:34I mean, this family is worth millions.
07:36I'm sad that they couldn't bring you a decent wedding.
07:38If your father were alive to see his daughter...
07:40Delaney!
07:42You're drunk.
07:44I'll call you a car.
07:46Don't be silly.
07:46Go, Delaney.
07:49I didn't invite you here.
07:50Your mother did.
07:51Well, it's not her wedding, is it?
07:53Car's five minutes away.
07:55Feel free to wait outside.
07:57You should learn to stay out of my business.
07:59Otherwise, I might start sniffing around yours.
08:08I hope this isn't too forward, but...
08:11Can we be best friends already?
08:14Not too forward at all.
08:15Sorry about Delaney.
08:16It's okay.
08:17Or it will be, as long as you keep this girl around.
08:26I'm at what I said earlier.
08:27If we're going to get through tonight, we have to get to know one another.
08:30Your family's not going to stop crying.
08:32Okay, fine.
08:35I graduated from Columbia, summa cum laude.
08:40Interned at Goldman Sachs.
08:42Became the youngest CEO in the firm's history.
08:45Made the Forbes 30 under 30 list.
08:47And now, I'm expected to carry on a tradition of excellence.
08:52Success is boring.
08:53Oh, success is boring to you?
08:59I can find all that stuff on Google.
09:01I want to know who you really are.
09:03Okay, um, I'm good at billiards.
09:07Oh, God.
09:09Just call it pool, like a normal person.
09:12Pools are for swimming.
09:13Wow.
09:14Having a life of privilege really did a number on you, huh?
09:18Privilege is subjective.
09:20Well, money's not.
09:22And that makes all of the other problems a whole lot easier.
09:26Oh.
09:28What's this?
09:29Absolutely not.
09:31It does not say no escorts.
09:33A.B. honor roll.
09:47So you're a huge nerd.
09:49Briefly.
09:51I loved space, anyway.
09:54What the hell happened?
09:55What do you mean?
09:56Based on my research, I couldn't find a single photo where you actually looked happy.
10:00And that Forbes 30 under 30 profile.
10:04It was thoughtful.
10:06Introspective.
10:08Mildly suicidal.
10:10Definitely depressing.
10:14Fine.
10:15There was this space camp that I begged my parents to attend.
10:20Finally, they agreed the summer before I went to high school.
10:24But, uh, while I was gone, my, uh, my father passed away.
10:30But I'm so sorry for your loss.
10:34After that, I guess I stopped looking up at the stars.
10:39That's where he was, you know?
10:42Instead of down here with us.
10:43Are you okay?
11:03I should, uh, get back to the party before my mother comes looking.
11:05So you're coming to the wedding tomorrow, right?
11:14I don't work multi-day jobs.
11:17Plus, I don't think I should.
11:19Your family is way too involved.
11:21It's too complicated.
11:23I thought you said you were a professional.
11:24You'll have to make up an excuse.
11:29Or give them my apologies.
11:32I'm sorry, Tate.
11:33Really.
11:34I'll double your rate.
11:39And I'll do whatever you say.
11:42Open up as much as necessary.
11:44You don't want to keep lying near family, Tate.
11:47I mean, what's your big plan here?
11:49You know, for once, I'm not trying to strategize ten steps ahead.
11:53I know what I want right now.
11:55I mean, I'll talk to the agency.
12:00See if they can make arrangements.
12:06Thank you, Piper.
12:09Don't thank me yet.
12:11Look, I'd better go.
12:16Um.
12:25Whenever you're awake, I miss you.
12:50Yeah, the next two nights?
13:00Is Renee available?
13:03She's just so good with all the medications.
13:07Oh, good.
13:09Please tell her that I'll have my room ready for her.
13:20I'm waiting.
13:25So tell me what you need.
13:31Cause I can't take it.
13:35The way this is changing me.
13:42I am waiting.
13:45So tell me what you need.
13:50Cause I can't take it.
13:55The way this is changing me.
14:00Oh, I am waiting.
14:05So tell me what you need.
14:09Cause I can't take it.
14:14The way this is changing me.
14:19I can't take it.
14:33Shit.
14:43Fuck.
14:49Text Tate. I can't make it to the wedding today. I'm sorry. I'll return your money now. Send.
15:07Not an option. Contract is signed with the agency. See you at 11 a.m.
15:13Fuck.
15:19Hello?
15:24There you are. Sorry, I couldn't hear the gate.
15:28It was open, but I'm here and having a colossally bad hair day.
15:34Okay, well, you can't wear a hat to the wedding. It can't be that bad. Let me see it.
15:41It's that bad. No one can see.
15:44Show me.
15:49I'm sorry. Uh, wow.
15:58What are you doing?
16:02Just trust me, okay? I grew up with a sister.
16:05So how did this happen anyway?
16:08I fell asleep painting, which I haven't done since I was a kid.
16:14I'm surprised you had the energy to paint after everything yesterday.
16:18I was inspired.
16:20I know what you mean.
16:30You know we have staff for that sort of thing.
16:32Yes, and I've seen children set up a tea party neater than this.
16:35You're in a good mood.
16:38It's a good day.
16:40It's Piper, isn't it?
16:42I was skeptical, but I see how happy she makes you.
16:48Mom, please don't make a big deal out of this, okay?
16:51Your father would have liked her.
16:54I like her too.
16:57Hey, what are you doing with those flowers?
17:03Here you sit.
17:04Here you go,popular.
17:06I'm sorry.
17:07Here you go,ು.
17:08There you go.
17:09VEL מה!
17:11Here you go,
17:22I'm sorry!
17:23Here you go,
17:25you.
17:25Dave, when we first met, we agreed we felt like teenagers again.
17:35Energized.
17:36Invincible.
17:38But as we fell in love, I felt more like a little kid again.
17:42Full of wonder.
17:45And hope.
17:46I had absolute faith in you because I felt absolutely cherished.
17:51Just like I did when I was small.
17:53My father taught me that unconditional love was possible.
17:59And I know you're the only man he'd trust his little girl to.
18:05Because you love all versions of me.
18:09Unconditionally.
18:12And I vow to love you just the same.
18:16Young or old.
18:18Richer, poorer.
18:20In sickness and in health.
18:25Forever.
18:28Bullshit.
18:30You were absolutely crying.
18:31I was not.
18:32Okay, I may have shed a tear, but she's my baby sister and she was getting married.
18:36I think I'm entitled to...
18:38Oh, my God.
18:39Okay, if you make this a big deal, Piper, I swear...
18:41No, no, no.
18:41Not that.
18:43Is that Sebastian Rockwell?
18:45The art critic?
18:46I'm kind of obsessed with him.
18:47Hey, Bash!
18:48Tate, beautiful ceremony.
18:54Thank you so much, my friend.
18:55Sebastian, I want you to meet someone.
18:57This is Piper Manning.
18:59It's so nice to meet you, Mr. Rothwell.
19:01I've been reading your writing for years.
19:04That piece you wrote on the Edward Hopper retrospective at the Whitney made me cry.
19:10You're too kind.
19:12Are you an artist yourself?
19:14I'm a painter.
19:16Send me some photos of your work.
19:18I'd love to know more about the woman who stole Tate Young's heart.
19:24Excuse me, I have to take this.
19:26Connect us.
19:26Do you have a dance for me?
19:48I don't dance.
19:50What?
19:52No.
19:53Ariana said everyone had to dance, and that includes you and me.
19:58You don't want to piss off the bride, do you?
19:59How'd you get so good at this?
20:16I've attended way too many of these formal events to have not picked up a thing or two.
20:19How are you so bad at this?
20:27Dancing is not one of my skills.
20:32So how did you get into escorted?
20:35I needed help with my mom's medical bills.
20:39And the pay was great.
20:42And I didn't mind escaping my reality from time to time.
20:45Turns out, when you're not born into a multi-million dollar family, life's kind of hard.
20:53So having a concierge doctor isn't the norm?
20:58I was kind of hoping that this would be my last gig.
21:02I want to spend more time at home.
21:04Get a remote job or something.
21:07Job is a job.
21:08There's nothing wrong with doing what it takes to survive.
21:10But, for what it's worth, I hope I'm your last assignment, too.
21:18How about a photo of the happy couple?
21:24Get cozy.
21:27Come on, Tate, give her a kiss.
21:31You're playing.
21:32Okay, have a good evening, little birds.
21:58What's that for?
21:59What?
22:02Stay with me, Tate.
22:06Okay.
22:07I thought that kind of had squirt.
22:09We don't have to.
22:12I just want to spend more time with you.
22:14Please.
22:15Please.
22:16Please.
22:32Do you have a shirt for me to wear?
22:46Right.
22:47Of course.
22:48It was a gift from my dad.
23:01Oh.
23:02Are you sure you want me to wear it?
23:05Don't be silly.
23:06It looks good on you.
23:15Okay, who's being silly now?
23:17I'm trying to be respectful.
23:19I feel respected.
23:21Now, can we sleep in the bed?
23:24Like adults?
23:29Hardwood floor, huh?
23:30Honestly, you're stiff enough as it is.
23:46Tate?
23:48Yeah?
23:49I was just seeing if you were awake.
23:57You can't sleep?
23:58Not really.
24:10You?
24:13No.
24:14Everything is racing.
24:19Is this okay?
24:33Everything is racing for me, too.
24:47Is this okay?
24:49I don't know.
25:09Do you feel good?
25:15Do you?
25:17Do you feel good?
25:18Wow, your dad was a babe.
25:47What happened to you?
25:49Okay, okay.
25:51I'm kidding.
25:52You're a babe, too.
25:53All right.
25:54Come on.
25:55Let me see a picture of your mom.
26:00Oh, my God.
26:05She was stunning.
26:08You really miss her, don't you?
26:10I know it sounds weird, but I really miss her playing the piano.
26:16I used to come home from school and I could hear it all the way from our building hallway.
26:22Anytime I heard that music, I knew that she was happy.
26:27I had to sell it, the piano, when she got sick.
26:34I haven't forgiven myself since that.
26:40I see some of your paintings sometime.
26:45You really don't spend enough time at your family's foundation.
26:48You've been talking to my mother, haven't you?
26:50The painting she bought for Elizabeth?
26:53It's mine.
26:55It was for my mom.
27:00You're incredible.
27:11So, is it like this with all your other clients?
27:20Not usually.
27:22This feels personal.
27:25Yeah, for me, too.
27:28Then me working for you creates a problematic power dynamic.
27:35Now, there's a word every man wants to hear in the bedroom.
27:38Not just for me, for both of us.
27:41You know, how do I know that you don't just want sex?
27:45And how do you know that I don't just want a paycheck?
27:49Looks like I'm not the only one with trust issues.
27:54Am I wrong?
27:55Well, I mean, you said after this weekend
27:58you might not be an escort anymore.
28:04So then what?
28:06So then I will take you out on a date.
28:12I don't know if I fit in here.
28:14You know, with your family
28:16and your world.
28:19Hey.
28:22Then I will make space for you.
28:31Get away from my son.
28:34What are you talking about, Mom?
28:36I just received a disturbing email from Delaney
28:38with attachments from an escort service.
28:41Did you know about this?
28:43About this gold digger?
28:45Calm down.
28:46It's not like that.
28:47I trusted you.
28:48And you lied to my face about using my son.
28:51I'm sorry I had to lie to you, but I was never using him.
28:54You're trespassing.
28:56Get off my property before I call the police.
28:58All right.
28:59Listen.
29:00There is no need to be so dramatic.
29:01All right?
29:02I wanted a professional, so I hired one.
29:04Okay?
29:05End of story.
29:06Professional?
29:07You knew?
29:08Tate.
29:09I see the way you look at her.
29:11This woman has you eating out of the palm of her hand.
29:15And she lied to you, Tate.
29:17What do you mean she lied to me?
29:19Josie, please.
29:20Her mother's alive.
29:21Not dead, as she led us to believe.
29:24She lied about something like this?
29:26How can we believe anything she has to say?
29:30Is that true?
29:34It is, but...
29:35So much for really getting to know each other, huh?
29:37Can we please just talk about this privately?
29:40Why?
29:41So you can spin more lies, get off my property, or I'll call the police.
29:47Tate...
29:49Just leave.
29:51Before it gets any worse.
29:58So much for making space for me.
30:04Think about our family's future.
30:07What would your father think of this?
30:09A prostitute for a daughter-in-law?
30:13Enough.
30:14Now we have to spin damage control.
30:16Delaney promised not to leak it to the press,
30:19if you meet with her for a chat.
30:27Hey, Piper!
30:28What the hell do you want?
30:30How could you lie to me?
30:31I don't owe you an explanation.
30:33How could you let your mother say those things to me?
30:35Yeah, well maybe she was right.
30:36You never cared about me.
30:37You only cared about using me for my money and my connections.
30:41But what else should I have expected from an escort?
30:44You sell your body for money.
30:45Huh?
30:49Piper, I didn't mean that.
30:51I'm sorry I went too far.
30:52No.
30:54You know what, you're right.
30:56I am just an escort.
30:59And you're just another client.
31:01This was just business.
31:03And we are done here.
31:06Piper, wait.
31:07Hey Renee.
31:08Is everything okay with my mom?
31:09Is everything okay with my mom?
31:13Oh, good.
31:14Sure.
31:15I'll stop by the pharmacy on the way home.
31:19No problem.
31:20Bye.
31:21Bye.
31:22Congratulations, Michelangela.
31:23Oh my gosh.
31:24You're so sweet.
31:25Hey, Renee, is everything okay with my mom?
31:37Oh, good.
31:39Sure, I'll stop by the pharmacy on the way home.
31:42No problem.
31:44Bye.
31:47Congratulations, Michelangela.
31:48Oh, my gosh, you're so sweet.
31:50You did not have to do that.
31:52Of course I did.
31:53We have to celebrate you coming all this way.
31:55All on your own?
31:56Well, not all on my own.
31:58How is our little one doing today?
32:01Crushing my bladder, as a matter of fact.
32:06This is incredible, Piper.
32:09You said you were going into business on your own.
32:12I had no idea.
32:14It was partially thanks to your wedding.
32:18Am I your muse?
32:20I did feel inspired that weekend.
32:23And it was the first time I was able to paint in over a year.
32:29And Tate introduced me to Sebastian Rothwell.
32:32He loved one of my new pieces, wrote an article about it.
32:36And then I had requests and commissions just flooding in.
32:39So, thanks for getting married.
32:42Well, thank you for letting me be in your life.
32:46Between that and you agreeing to keep this a secret, you have definitely earned your best friend's lap.
32:52Well, it's not hard to keep a secret when you barely speak to your family.
32:58It's okay.
32:59It's good, actually.
33:01After the way they treated you, I finally drew some boundaries.
33:05No more meddling from Mom.
33:06No more watching Tate destroy the legacy my father created.
33:10How is he?
33:13From what I can tell, miserable.
33:18And he's making everybody around him miserable, too.
33:24He's shutting down Dad's foundation.
33:26This gorgeous new property just opened up in the 7th.
33:38Overpriced, no doubt.
33:39Without the foundation bleeding our firm dry, we can afford it.
33:43Our first European office.
33:46Our London office is in Europe.
33:49We can spend the summers vacationing on the Seine.
33:53Ugh, the Seine is filthy.
33:54I'll take a tour when I visit next week.
34:09What the hell is this?
34:12That's the ring you're going to use to propose to me.
34:14We'll announce the good news when I'm back.
34:18Don't worry.
34:19I like a surprise.
34:24Hello.
34:37Hello.
34:38Is there anyone here to help me?
34:40I'd love to purchase a piece.
34:42Be out in a sec.
34:43take your time dear I think you're showing an artist that I've been trying
34:49to find for the past year you have no idea how hard it is to track him down
34:55he never signs his paintings I didn't realize he was being shown in a gallery
35:03I think I saw one of his paintings in your catalog resembled the one I
35:07purchased last year what do you think you're doing here excuse me I need to
35:14talk to the artist immediately does he know the gallery hired a prostitute I'm
35:20the artist that you've been looking for and this is my gallery now get off of my
35:26property before I call the police wait wait judging from your appearance I
35:33think I should stay I don't have to take your insults anymore if I'm not
35:37mistaken and I've had two pregnancies myself I think you're as far along as
35:43Ariana's wedding did you do this to trap him you're coming after child support
35:48aren't you Tate doesn't know and I don't need his support why didn't you tell him
35:55because I want nothing to do with the youngs as you can see I'm thriving on my
36:02own even as an escort I was fine and I refused to bring my daughter into a
36:07family that views me or her as a shameful mistake you're having a little
36:13girl yes I'm having a girl and just because I don't have the same resources
36:19as you doesn't mean I can't give her the best damn life possible she's gonna be
36:24happy and healthy and she will never have the misfortune of meeting you now
36:30please leave
36:36thanks for coming by I needed access to all of dad's files on the foundation
36:44that's the only reason I'm here I don't want to argue with you is that all you
36:48think I do either that or you guilt trip me about shutting down dad's foundation I
36:52don't want to argue with you either I just want to ask have you ever heard
36:58from Piper again what no why I heard she opened her own gallery
37:07good for her I thought maybe we could stop by sometime or just you reconnect you
37:17know I just don't understand you first you throw her out of the house and now
37:22you're trying to set us up that's not what I'm trying to do I thought that you
37:26would be happy that I'm back with Delaney you know someone from our world I
37:29just can't win with you Tate stop there's something that I have to tell you
37:35about Piper
38:02this song is one of your favorites mama
38:06what are you doing here my mother told me how did you find me we have a PI on retainer of course you do
38:36do you people respect anything you want to talk about respect how could you
38:42not tell me we're about to have a kid we're not about to do anything and keep
38:46your voice down is that your mom is she okay no she's not okay why did you lie
38:56about her I wasn't lying when I said that she's no longer with us she's gone
39:03Alzheimer's her care nearly drove me to bankruptcy but that's in the past now I'm fully capable of supporting my family all on my own
39:18she should have told me that it's too painful to talk about and he should have
39:26told me about this too you didn't defend me Tate and you never reached out you
39:33wanted nothing to do with me after that day Piper look I get it I'm a black mark on
39:39your precious reputation Delaney's better for you how do you know about that the
39:47press fall was your every move and I'm sure they'd have a field day about this
39:54please just leave us alone I want my daughter to know real love and
40:06I don't think you're capable of it
40:09you haven't taken your telescope out since you were a kid
40:21yeah well I uh try not to think about dad too much these days
40:24yeah did you see Piper what did she say how much does she want she didn't want
40:33anything we'll need to draft an NDA good god a pregnant escort the media circus
40:39around that is that all you can think about I'm thinking about our family yes
40:44so am I I'm about to have a daughter out there in the world who I'll never meet
40:48thanks to you hey don't blame this on me you were the one that brought her in
40:53this house in the first place you're right
40:57and I'm ashamed of us for how we treated her you want to know why she was
41:04escorting it's because her mother is sick not dead I mean really sick but I
41:10guess Delaney's email didn't include that huh you know what it doesn't even
41:14matter who's to blame I understand why she didn't tell me I make a terrible father
41:24I'm nothing like dad
41:27hey Drew have you seen my key to the supply closet anywhere it's exquisite
41:39changed my life it's what made all this possible
41:49when did you paint him the night I met him before everything else I was
41:58thinking about Vermeer's portraits his use of light and contrast to create a
42:04whole world and essence of a person what appears at first glance simple becomes
42:12increasingly intimate then exposes who the person is emotionally I owe you an
42:22apology Piper and an explanation the way I accused you of only going after Tate for
42:30his money I only feared that because that's how I married my husband I grew up
42:38with so little practically nothing really I vowed my children would not have the
42:43same fate so you accused me of what you did you went digging for gold only at
42:49first but yes I sought out Harrison for the security so what happened after you
42:56got married did you tell him the truth or did you just live out a lie after a few
43:02months I was head over heels Harrison was the love of my life the best husband and
43:07father I could have ever asked for well I'm sorry Tate didn't turn out more like
43:11Harrison then but I appreciate your honesty
43:15Piper I know that if given the chance Tate would follow in his father's footsteps
43:23you don't have to forgive me please please let Tate be a part of his child's life
43:31I'll think about it
43:36Josie brought me
43:51she must have really groveled she did change my mind about something I never
44:00grew up knowing my father and I'd be lying if I said that I didn't feel that
44:07absence so I'm willing to let you be in her life on my terms
44:15see you in a month wait what well the baby's not here yet yeah but I want to be a good father now
44:25what do you mean
44:31being a good father means taking care of the mother even if the child's not here yet
44:40you can come over tonight I need help building a crib
44:47you're on the wrong page I am not if you just let me help no Piper absolutely not and don't make me send you to bed early
45:15so how's your mom doing is there any chance for improvement
45:23not really you know she has good days but it's mainly about managing the bad ones
45:31always worried that she's miserable
45:33she's nonverbal so I have no way of knowing
45:39speaking of your mother we uh we moved your for Elizabeth piece into the estate now that
45:49the foundation is shutting down I heard
45:51why are you trying to shut down your father's work
45:56the foundation was draining us the family firm needs to expand
46:00the word family comes first in that sentence for a reason
46:03my dad would have loved you
46:06he always put it in that order too
46:09family foundation firm
46:12so with foundation comes before firm don't you think he'd want you to keep it open
46:18yeah well add it to the list of ways I'm letting him down
46:21what else is on the list
46:24well all he ever wanted was for me to be happy
46:28and I'm not
46:29not since
46:30oh

50:29ones that have never had their own space
50:33it's going to be for them
50:35and that's not all
50:39I've been thinking about a lot these past few days
50:42especially what makes me happy
50:45it all comes down to family
50:48I want to follow in dad's footsteps
50:51do good
50:53do good

51:51you watch your language when talking about the mother of my grandchild
51:55Josie it's fine
51:56thank you for defending me but

53:50it's
53:52not that I don't believe you
53:54it's just
53:55I'm really scared
53:58Tate
53:58tell me what you're scared of
54:04messing up our kid
54:07spoiling her too much
54:09or not enough
54:11or
54:11what if we're bad parents
54:14we don't know what we're doing
54:17we'll get through it together
54:19that's not what scares me the most though
54:27I'm scared of how much I love you
54:33I love you too
54:38we hardly know each other
54:41it sounds crazy but
54:43I feel like you know me better than anyone else
54:47the real me
54:49but ask me anything
54:52I'm an open book
54:54what do you want?
54:59I want us to be a family Piper
55:01that's it
55:02first and foremost
55:04I want to give Lizzie the kind of childhood that you and I never got to have
55:09Lizzie?
55:12yeah
55:13short for Elizabeth
55:15I thought it sounded right
55:18it sounds perfect
55:23my mom is so excited we're moving into the estate
55:35it's not exactly giving normal childhood
55:38well normal doesn't have to mean lugging a stroller up four flights of stairs Piper
55:42and besides there's more than enough room here for me you Lizzie and your mom
55:46she does seem more comfortable here
55:50I um I have a confession to make
55:53after the family doctor gave you the all clear
55:56I asked her to reach out to some Alzheimer's specialists
56:00you did that?
56:02of course
56:03I talked to them and we came up with an action plan that should give Elizabeth more good days
56:08what kind of action plan?
56:10well a full-time in-house specialist for one
56:12and an environment where she's surrounded by people who care for her
56:17plus something else that should help bring back some memories
56:22is that a piano?
56:32she's happy
56:40Tate I can tell she's happy
56:44music came right back to her
56:46the doctors don't know if it was muscle memory or what
56:50but they think it's a good sign
56:52I'm not surprised
56:55you know it's in her muscles
56:58her blood
56:59her DNA
56:59everything
57:01do you want to try talking to her?
57:06not yet
57:07I want her to have this
57:10thank you
57:31my mom took Lizzie on a walk to show her off to the neighborhood
57:36oh she's gonna have the whole street wrapped around her finger
57:39you know you're not gonna be able to teach her how to use that for a few years
57:45yes but in the meantime he'll teach her how to paint
57:48and who knows
57:50maybe we'll have the next starry night on our hands
57:53hopefully without the botched eardrop
57:55there's a piece I can't find
57:58do you mind looking in that box for me?
58:00it's uh, small and gold
58:01Tate, what's this?
58:05Piper Manning
58:17you made me want to look up at the stars again
58:20will you marry me?
