02:14a professional well I mean you're an escort it doesn't exactly require an

02:31attitude two for the price of one lucky you
02:36so what's the story of how we met you said you're a professional right make
02:50something up if we want to pull this off we're gonna have to have a story you
02:55said yourself that your mother's gonna be watching unless you want me to tell her
02:59the truth look I realized that some of your other clients may find those kinds
03:05of jokes charming but I need you to take this seriously okay my reputation's at
03:10stake here you know on my way over here I was wondering why does Tate young the
03:15most eligible bachelor in the city need an escort and I'm starting to understand
03:21why take you came to rehearsal dinner would you expect oh you know I seem to
03:28find some excuse and you are it's nice to meet you Ariana I'm Piper so how did you
03:41two meet don't worry babe I'll tell her I hosted a local artist charity auction last
03:48month and the young family foundation bid on a painting for their lobby I
03:52supervised the installation and Tate was there the rest is history oh Tate
03:59never usually spends time at the foundation it was our father's passion
04:03project but Tate tends to get his priorities mixed up oh mom's looking for
04:09you I told her you're over here so good luck mmm I'm gonna go make out with Dave
04:18you know I gotta say it's a little scary how good of a liar you are oh Tate we have
04:25got to work on your trust issues that whole story was true aside from meeting you of course
04:31well you're about to see where I got those trust issues from
04:35hello I don't believe you're on our guest list mom 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
04:51at a local art auction I held last month you hosted that that painting spoke to me immediately
04:57and I was especially intrigued with how the artist signed it no name just for Elizabeth a dedication to
05:05the artist's mother must be nice for a mother to feel appreciated I tried to find
05:12the artist but if that artist appreciates their anonymity oh and how about you dear do
05:20you appreciate your anonymity as well I'm an open book ask me anything where did you grow up
05:28New York did you attend to college Princeton college and graduate school for my MFA oh poor dear you must
05:38be drowning in student debt actually my family didn't have to take out any loans thank goodness
05:43oh so you're comfortable my mother was at the top of her field so yes we were comfortable I see
05:50we'll all have to have lunch together um my mother is unfortunately no longer with us
05:59all right okay enough with the third degree I think Piper deserves a breather
06:04I'll give her a tour of the house nice meeting you you too
06:09okay
06:18so we've established that you're an enormous dork which is probably why you have a hard time with
06:24the ladies I prefer to focus on my work hmm you know they have support groups for that kind
06:31of thing stop you sound like my mother she's been going to extremes to try to get me to settle down
06:37oh what kind of extremes I'm trying to get me back together with my ex speaking of
06:44hey baby I missed you Delaney this is Piper his girlfriend Delaney Hughes his first love
06:56is that right see you're still trying to replace me huh what app did you find this one on
07:00Piper is in the arts that's where we met and Delaney here is a lawyer at the firm
07:07see that's not all I am and you know it we dated all throughout high school and college and then we
07:12broke up Delaney why are you here oh don't be like that you know Josie and I have always been close
07:19why I'm practically family and who knows maybe someday I will be Delaney what are you doing here
07:25thank god I came right I mean it doesn't look like there was much of a turnout we kept the guest list
07:31intimate we didn't want anything too expensive I mean this family is worth millions I am sad that
07:37they couldn't throw you a decent wedding if your father were alive to see his daughter Delaney

08:14not too forward at all sorry about Delaney it's okay or it will be as long as you keep this girl around
08:23I meant what I said earlier if we're gonna get through tonight we have to get to know one another

09:04okay um I'm good at billiards oh god just call it pool like a normal person
09:11pools are for swimming wow having a life of privilege really did a number on you huh
09:18privilege is subjective well money's not and that makes all of the other problems a whole lot easier

16:04So how did this happen anyway
16:07I fell asleep painting
16:10Which I haven't done since I was a kid
16:13I'm surprised you had the energy to paint after everything yesterday
16:17I was inspired
16:19I know what you mean
16:29You know we have staff for that sort of thing

17:22Dave
17:29When we first met we agreed we felt like teenagers again
17:33Energized
17:34Invincible
17:35But as we fell in love I felt more like a little kid again
17:40like a little kid again full of wonder and hope i had absolute faith in you because i felt
17:48absolutely cherished just like i did when i was small my father taught me that unconditional love
17:57was possible and i know you're the only man he trusts his little girl too
18:03because you love all versions of me unconditionally
18:12and i vow to love you just the same young or old richer poorer in sickness and in health forever
18:25oh shit you were absolutely crying i was not okay i may have shed a tear but she's my baby's sister
18:35and she was getting married i i think i'm entitled to my god okay if you make this a big deal piper i

23:31Honestly, you're stiff enough as it is.

23:49I was just seeing if you were awake.
23:54You can't sleep?
24:06Not really.
24:09You?
24:10No.
24:14Everything is racing.
24:25Is this okay?
24:27Everything is racing for me, too.
24:38Is this okay?
24:47Okay.
24:47Okay.
25:01I don't know.
25:02I don't know.
25:02I don't know.
25:03Mm-hmm.
25:10Mm-hmm.
25:15Mm-hmm.
25:20Mm-hmm.
25:23Mm-hmm.
25:44Wow.
25:45Your dad was a babe.
25:47What happened to you?
25:49Okay, okay.
25:51I'm kidding.
25:52Me too.
25:53All right, come on.
25:54Let me see a picture of your mom.
26:03Oh my god.
26:05She was stunning.
26:07You 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.
26:21Anytime I heard that music, I knew that she was happy.
26:26I had to sell it, the piano, when she got sick.
26:34I haven't forgiven myself since then.
26:40I see some of your paintings sometime.
26:43You really don't spend enough time at your family's foundation.
26:47You've been talking to my mother, haven't you?
26:50The painting she bought for Elizabeth?
26:53It's mine.
26:54It was for my mom.
26:56You're incredible.
26:57Okay.
26:58Okay.
26:59So is it like this with all your other clients?
27:03Not usually.
27:04This feels personal.
27:06Yeah, for me too.
27:08Then me working for you creates a problematic power dynamic.
27:15Now there's a word every man wants to hear in the bedroom.
27:16Not just for me, for both of us.
27:18You know?
27:19How do I know that you don't just want sex and how do you know that I don't just want to pay
27:24check?
27:25Looks like I'm not the only one with trust issues.
27:26Looks like I'm not the only one with trust issues.
27:27You know?
27:28How do I know that you don't just want sex and how do you know that I don't just want a paycheck?
27:49Looks like I'm not the only one with trust issues.
27:53Am I wrong?
27:55Well, I mean, you said after this weekend you might not be an escort anymore.
28:00So then what?
28:05So then I will take you out on a date.
28:10I don't know if I fit in here.
28:14You know, with your family and your world.
28:19Hey, then I will make space for you.
28:26Get away from my son.
28:31What are you talking about, Mom?
28:35I just received a disturbing email from Delaney with attachments from an escort service.
28:40Did you know about this?
28:42About this gold digger?
28:44Calm down.
28:45It's not like that.
28:46I trusted you.
28:47And you lied to my face about using my son.
28:50I'm sorry I had to lie to you, but I was never using him.
28:53You're trespassing.
28:55Get off my property before I call the police.
28:57All right.
28:58Listen.
28:59There is no need to be so dramatic.
29:00All right?
29:01I wanted a professional, so I hired one.
29:03Okay?
29:04End of story.
29:05Professional?
29:06You knew?
29:07Tate.
29:08I see the way you look at her.
29:11This woman has you eating out of the palm of her hand.
29:14And she lied to you, Tate.
29:16What do you mean she lied to me?
29:18Josie, please.
29:19Her mother's alive, not dead as she led us to believe.
29:23She lied about something like this?
29:25How can we believe anything she has to say?
29:28Is that true?
29:30It is, but-
29:34So much for really getting to know each other, huh?
29:37Can we please just talk about this privately?
29:39Why?
29:40So you can spin more lies, get off my property, or I'll call the police.
29:46Tate.
29:48Just leave.
29:50Before it gets any worse.
29:57So much for making space for me.
30:00Think about our family's future.
30:05What would your father think of this?
30:08A prostitute for a daughter-in-law?
30:12Enough.
30:13Now we have to spin damage control.
30:16Delaney promised not to leak it to the press if you meet with her for a chat.
30:27Hey, Piper!
30:28What the hell do you want?
30:29How 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?
30:43You sell your body for money.
30:45Huh?
30:48Piper, I didn't mean that.
30:50I'm sorry I went too far.
30:51No.
30:53You know what, you're right.
30:55I am just an escort.
30:57And you're just another client.
30:59This was just business.
31:02And we are done here.
31:05Piper, wait.
31:06Hey, Renee.
31:07Is everything okay with my mom?
31:08Hey, Renee.
31:09Is everything okay with my mom?
31:10Oh.
31:11Good.
31:12Sure.
31:13I'll stop by the pharmacy on the way home.
31:32No problem.
31:36We are going home.
31:39Sure. I'll stop by the pharmacy on the way home.
31:43No problem. Bye.
31:46Congratulations, Michelangela.
31:48Oh my gosh, you're so sweet. You did not have to do that.
31:52Of course I did.
31:53We have to celebrate you coming all this way, all 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.
32:03This is incredible, Piper.
32:09You said you were going into business on your own. I had no idea.
32:14It was partially thanks to your wedding.
32:18Am I your muse?
32:20I did feel inspired that weekend.
32:24It was the first time I was able to paint in over a year.
32:29And Tate introduced me to Sebastian Rothwell.
32:31He 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,
32:50you have definitely earned your best friend's back.
32:53Well, it's not hard to keep a secret when you barely speak to your family.
32:56It's okay. It'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.
33:11How is he?
33:12From what I can tell?
33:16Miserable.
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.
33:37Overpriced, 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.
33:48We can spend the summers vacationing on the Seine.
33:53Ugh, the Seine is filthy.
33:55I'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. I like a surprise.
34:36Hello?
34:38Is there anyone here to help me?
34:40I'd love to purchase a piece.
34:42Be out in a sec.
34:44Take your time, dear.
34:45I think you're showing an artist that I've been trying to find for the past year.
34:51You have no idea how hard it is to track him down.
34:55He never signs his paintings.
34:59I didn't realize he was being shown in a gallery.
35:03I think I saw one of his paintings in your catalog.
35:06It resembled the one I purchased last year.
35:09What do you think you're doing here?
35:12Excuse me?
35:13I need to talk to the artist immediately.
35:16Does he know the gallery hired a prostitute?
35:20I'm the artist that you've been looking for.
35:22And this is my gallery.
35:24Now get off of my property before I call the police.
35:28Wait.
35:29Wait.
35:31Judging from your appearance,
35:33I think I should stay.
35:34I don't have to take your insults anymore.
35:37If I'm not mistaken,
35:38and I've had two pregnancies myself,
35:41I think you're as far along as Ariana's wedding.
35:45Did you do this to trap him?
35:47You're coming after child support, aren't you?
35:50Tate doesn't know.
35:51And I don't need his support.
35:54Why didn't you tell him?
35:55Because I want nothing to do with the Youngs.
35:58As you can see,
36:01I'm thriving on my own.
36:03Even as an escort,
36:04I was fine.
36:05And I refused to bring my daughter into a family
36:07that views me or her
36:09as a shameful mistake.
36:12You're having a little girl?
36:14Yes.
36:15I'm having a girl.
36:17And just because I don't have the same resources as you,
36:20doesn't mean I can't give her the best damn life possible.
36:23She's going to be happy and healthy,
36:26and she will never have the misfortune of meeting you.
36:30Now please leave.
36:38Thanks for coming by.
36:41I needed access to all of Dad's files on the foundation.
36:44That's the only reason I'm here.
36:45I don't want to argue with you.
36:47Is that all you think I do?
36:49Either that,
36:49or you guilt-tripped me about shutting down Dad's foundation.
36:52I don't want to argue with you either.
36:55I just want to ask,
36:57have you ever heard from Piper again?
37:01What?
37:02No.
37:04Why?
37:05I heard she opened her own gallery.
37:08Good for her.
37:10I thought maybe we could stop by sometime.
37:14Or just you.
37:16Reconnect.
37:17You know, I just don't understand you.
37:19First, you throw her out of the house,
37:21and now you're trying to set us up?
37:23That's not what I'm trying to do.
37:25I thought that you would be happy
37:26that I'm back with Delaney.
37:28You know, someone from our world?
37:30I just can't win with you.
37:31Tate, stop.
37:33There's something that I have to tell you about Piper.
37:35This song is one of your favorites, Mama.
38:04What are you doing here?
38:28My mother told me.
38:31How did you find me?
38:34We have a PI on retainer.
38:36Of course you do.
38:37Do you people respect anything?
38:39You want to talk about respect?
38:41How could you not tell me we're about to have a kid?
38:44We're not about to do anything.
38:46You can keep your voice down.
38:47Is that your mom?
38:52Is she okay?
38:53No.
38:54She's not okay.
38:55Why did you lie about her?
38:57I wasn't lying when I said that she's no longer with us.
39:01She's gone.
39:04Alzheimer's.
39:06Her care nearly drove me to bankruptcy.
39:08But that's in the past now.
39:11I'm fully capable of supporting my family all on my own.
39:18You should have told me that.
39:22It's too painful to talk about.
39:25And you should have told me about this, too.
39:28You didn't defend me, Tate.
39:30And you never reached out.
39:32You wanted nothing to do with me after that day.
39:35Piper.
39:35Look, I get it.
39:37I'm a black mark on your precious reputation.
39:43Delaney's better for you.
39:45How do you know about that?
39:47The press fall was your every move.
39:49And I'm sure they'd have a field day about this.
39:58Please, just leave us alone.
40:03I want my daughter to know real love.
40:05And I don't think you're capable of it.
40:17You haven't taken your telescope out since you were a kid.
40:21Yeah, well, I try not to think about Dad too much these days.
40:25Yeah.
40:26Did you see Piper?
40:28What did she say?
40:30How much does she want?
40:32She didn't want anything.
40:33We'll need to draft an NDA.
40:36Good God.
40:36A pregnant escort.
40:38The media circus around that.
40:40Is that all you can think about?
40:41I'm thinking about our family.
40:44Yeah, so am I.
40:45I'm about to have a daughter out there in the world who I'll never meet thanks to you.
40:50Hey, don't blame this on me.
40:52You were the one that brought her in this house in the first place.
40:55You're right.
40:55And I'm ashamed of us.
40:59For how we treated her.
41:03You want to know why she was escorting?
41:05It's because her mother is sick.
41:07Not dead.
41:08I mean really sick.
41:10But I guess Delaney's email didn't include that, huh?
41:13You know what?
41:13It doesn't even matter who's to blame.
41:15I understand why she didn't tell me.
41:20I make a terrible father.
41:26I'm nothing like Dad.
41:27Hey, Drew, have you seen my key to the supply closet anywhere?
41:38It's exquisite.
41:39It changed my life.
41:47It's what made all this possible.
41:50When did you paint it?
41:52The night I met him.
41:54Before everything else.
41:58I was thinking about Vermeer's portraits.
42:01His use of light and contrast to create a whole world and essence of a person.
42:06What appears at first glance, simple, becomes increasingly intimate and exposes who the person is emotionally.
42:21I owe you an apology, Piper.
42:24And an explanation.
42:27The way I accused you of only going after Tate for his money.
42:32I only feared that because that's how I married my husband.
42:37I grew up with so little.
42:39Practically nothing, really.
42:41I vowed my children would not have the same fate.
42:44So you accused me of what you did?
42:47You went digging for gold?
42:48Only at first.
42:50But yes.
42:52I sought out Harrison for the security.
42:55So what happened after you got married?
42:58Did you tell him the truth or did you just live out a lie?
43:00After a few months, I was head over heels.
43:04Harrison was the love of my life.
43:06The best husband and father I could have ever asked for.
43:09Well, I'm sorry Tate didn't turn out more like Harrison then.
43:13But I appreciate your honesty.
43:15I, Piper, I know that if given the chance, Tate would follow in his father's footsteps.
43:25You don't have to forgive me.
43:28But please, please let Tate be a part of his child's life.
43:35I'll think about it.
43:36Josie brought me.
43:53She must have really groveled.
43:55She did change my mind about something.
43:58I never grew up knowing my father.
44:01And I'd be lying if I said that I didn't feel that absence.
44:08So I'm willing to let you be in her life.
44:12On my terms.
44:18See you in a month.
44:19Wait, what?
44:22Well, the baby's not here yet.
44:24Yeah, but I want to be a good father now.
44:30What do you mean?
44:31Being a good father means taking care of the mother.
44:38Even if the child's not here yet.
44:42You can come over tonight.
44:45I need help building a crib.
44:48I'll be there.
44:49You're on the wrong page.
45:08I am not.
45:10If you would just let me help.
45:12No, Piper, absolutely not.
45:13And don't make me send you to bed early.
45:15So how's your mom doing?
45:21Is there any chance for improvement?
45:24Not really.
45:26You know, she has good days, but...
45:28It's mainly about managing the bad ones.
45:32Always worried that she's miserable.
45:34She's nonverbal, so...
45:36I have no way of knowing.
45:42Speaking of your mother...
45:44We, uh...
45:45We moved your for Elizabeth piece into the estate now that the foundation is shutting down.
45:50I heard.
45:51Why are you trying to shut down your father's work?
45:57The foundation was draining us.
45:58The family firm needs to expand.
46:00The word family comes first in that sentence for a reason.
46:03My dad would have loved you.
46:07He always put it in that order, too.
46:10Family, foundation, firm.
46:13So, if foundation comes before firm, don't you think he'd want you to keep it open?
46:18Yeah, well...
46:19Add it to the list of ways I'm letting him down.
46:23What else is on the list?
46:25Well, all he ever wanted was for me to be happy.
46:28And I'm not.
46:29Not since...
46:30Oh.
46:30What's wrong?
46:34Contractions.
46:35Are you going into labor?
46:38No, it's just...
46:40Ooh, Braxton Hicks.
46:44It's like a sharp pain across my stomach and my lower back.
46:48Yeah.
46:52Ooh.
46:56Better?
46:59Better.
47:00She's kicking.
47:05Can you feel it?
47:08Yeah, I can.
47:11She loves dancing around in there.
47:14Hopefully she's a better dancer than her mama.
47:20I have an idea.
47:21What are you doing?
47:33I am eight months pregnant, you psycho.
47:35Yes, and I heard that you're supposed to get 30 minutes of exercise a day.
47:39I have an idea.
47:52Hey.
47:53You're not stepping on my feet.
47:56There's a big belly in between us.

54:37i love you too
54:39we hardly know each other it sounds crazy but i feel like you know me better than anyone else
54:46the real me but ask me anything i'm an open book
54:58what do you want i want us to be a family piper that's it first and foremost
55:06i want to give lizzie the kind of childhood that you and i never got to have
55:09them
55:24yeah short for elizabeth i thought it sounded right
55:30it sounds perfect
55:32my mom is so excited we're moving into the estate
55:36It's not exactly giving normal childhood.
55:39Well, normal doesn't have to mean lugging a stroller up four flights of stairs, Piper.
55:43And besides, there's more than enough room here for me, you, Lizzie, and your mom.
55:47She does seem more comfortable here.
55:50I, um, I have a confession to make.
55:54After the family doctor gave you the all-clear, I asked her to reach out to some Alzheimer's specialists.
56:01You 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, and an environment where she's surrounded by people who care for her.
56:18Plus, something else that should help bring back some memories.
56:25Is that a piano?
56:33She's happy.
56:42Tate, I can tell she's happy.
56:45We usually came right back to her.
56:47The doctors don't know if it was muscle memory or what, but they think it's a good sign.
56:52I'm not surprised.
56:55You know, it's in her muscles, her blood, her DNA, everything.
57:02Do you want to try talking to her?
57:06Not yet.
57:08I want her to have this.
57:33My mom took Lizzie on a walk to show her off to the neighborhood.
57:36Oh, she's going to have the whole street wrapped around her finger.
57:40You know, you're not going to 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.
57:49And who knows?
57:50Maybe we'll have the next story night on our hands.
57:53Hopefully without the botched eardrop.
57:56There's a piece I can't find.
57:58Do you mind looking in that box for me?
57:59It's, uh, small and gold.
58:04Tate, what's this?
58:17Piper Manning, you made me want to look up at the stars again.
58:22Will you marry me?
58:26I will.
58:29I will.
