00:00:00So I take it you do this a lot?
00:00:05Not really. So consider yourself lucky.
00:00:08I don't think you'd say that if you knew who I am.
00:00:10I don't need your backstory.
00:00:12I'm never gonna see you again.
00:00:14No, Alicia Brown.
00:00:16I will see you very soon.
00:00:30Miss Brown, this is a contract for your father to sell the house.
00:00:34No, this is my mother's house. You have no right to sell it.
00:00:37It's not your house.
00:00:38Poor thing. Won't even have a roof over her head.
00:00:42When your mother died, she passed ownership to your father.
00:00:45You have no legal right.
00:00:49I put myself through college. I never asked you for any money.
00:00:52Why do you have to take away Mom's house?
00:00:55This house was the only thing our mother left her.
00:00:58Shut up. Remember whose side you're on.
00:01:02No, I'm not gonna let you sell the house.
00:01:05Unfortunately, Miss Brown, you have no legal claim on the house.
00:01:10Only Mr. Brown can sell or transfer ownership.
00:01:15Oh, my dear sister, don't worry.
00:01:17I have a proposition.
00:01:19You can keep your Mom's house if you marry that Lucius lion so I don't have to.
00:01:26What?
00:01:29Mother's family and the lion family needs to work together.
00:01:33Tighter bonds lead to a better business.
00:01:35I'm gonna do you good to marry a lion.
00:01:37They're very influential.
00:01:39Almost like Cinderella, sis.
00:01:41This is your family business, not mine.
00:01:44And I'm not your sister.
00:01:46Um, fine. Then gather your garbage and leave.
00:01:49We'll give you a minute to say goodbye.
00:01:51Dad, how can you let them do this?
00:01:53But, Laura...
00:01:55I make the rules in this house.
00:01:57Marry Lucius lion or get out of my house.
00:01:59We want your answer before the end of the day.
00:02:02Wait, can I...
00:02:04Can I at least meet the guy?
00:02:06I'm not sure.
00:02:08He's a busy man.
00:02:09Probably out fucking a two dollar whore.
00:02:18There's no way I'd marry you off to that good for nothing man whore.
00:02:21Thank God.
00:02:22I was getting nervous there for a minute.
00:02:45At this table, I make duels.
00:02:48Do as I say, and our game goes on.
00:02:53Mr. Lion, you win.
00:02:55We'll continue to comply with your company.
00:02:58Pleasure doing business with you.
00:03:00You have a quarterly meeting today.
00:03:18And...
00:03:19What?
00:03:20You spit it out.
00:03:22Your father is threatening your privileges if you don't marry.
00:03:25You're not going to try to use me to keep the family business together.
00:03:29I've dug up everything on the elder daughter of the Brown family.
00:03:37Alicia Brown?
00:03:39I thought I was to marry the other one.
00:03:41You know, the brunette.
00:03:45She's a hard worker.
00:03:47I want to meet her.
00:03:51Don't you bitches even think about evicting me.
00:03:53It's not going to happen.
00:03:54This house belongs to me and my mother.
00:04:13She says thanks, but wants to be alone tonight.
00:04:16Thanks for trying.
00:04:18Better luck next time.
00:04:19I wanted to come over here and personally say thank you, but I'm not interested in meeting anyone tonight.
00:04:38No hard feelings, but if you still want a free drink, please. I hate rum.
00:04:48I see someone drink like that, they're definitely trying to forget something.
00:05:05Like I said, I'm not here to meet a friend.
00:05:07Fine.
00:05:08But when I see someone sulking by themselves, I try to help.
00:05:15If you want another drink for your troubles, it's on me.
00:05:20You rehearsed that line?
00:05:22I figured in exchange for a drink, you'd get whatever's bothering you off your trust.
00:05:27What's your name?
00:05:28I'm nobody.
00:05:29Besides, you said you're not interested in making any friends.
00:05:30Okay, nobody.
00:05:31But if you want to hear about it, I'll take that drink.
00:05:48Wine's gone.
00:05:49Damn it.
00:05:50Marrying someone you don't love.
00:05:51Mm-hmm.
00:05:52I'm rooting for you.
00:05:53Hope the guy's decent.
00:05:54What was that for?
00:05:55You're cute and sweet.
00:05:57Well, I won't get to do this again.
00:05:59So I take it you do this a lot?
00:06:00Not really.
00:06:01So consider yourself lucky.
00:06:03Uh huh.
00:06:04I'm not.
00:06:05I'm not.
00:06:06I'm not.
00:06:07I'm not.
00:06:08I'm not.
00:06:09I'm not.
00:06:10I'm not.
00:06:11I'm not.
00:06:12I'm not.
00:06:13I'm not.
00:06:14I'm not.
00:06:15I'm not.
00:06:16I'm not.
00:06:17I'm not.
00:06:18I'm not.
00:06:19I'm not.
00:06:20I'm not.
00:06:21I don't think you'd say that if you knew who I am.
00:06:24I don't need your backstory.
00:06:26I'm never gonna see you again.
00:06:51No need to sneak out.
00:06:59I'm not hurt you're trying to leave.
00:07:02Last night was a mistake.
00:07:05No, no.
00:07:06Last night was nice. You're nice.
00:07:08It was all...
00:07:09...nice.
00:07:11Well, I'm convinced.
00:07:14But are you sure you don't want to know who I am?
00:07:17Look, if we'd met at another time then maybe we could get coffee or something, but...
00:07:22I'm kind of getting married.
00:07:25Well, I did not see that coming.
00:07:33Well, I hope your soon-to-be husband doesn't find out about all this and...
00:07:38...I don't know...
00:07:40...shoot me?

00:14:27You don't recognize me?
00:14:28Uh, no, I don't think so.
00:14:31Jenna, Jenna Davis, we went to high school together.
00:14:34Oh, Jenna, oh my God, it's been years.
00:14:37Yeah.
00:14:38Since when do you work at Vision Tech?
00:14:39When I got out of school.
00:14:40What have you been up to?
00:14:42Grad school.
00:14:43I just graduated.
00:14:44Well, luckily, I got a job right off the bat, and now I'm a director.
00:14:48Congratulations.
00:14:49Thanks.
00:14:50Now, I won't go easy on you just because we were classmates.
00:14:55No.
00:14:56Yeah, no, I wouldn't expect you to.
00:14:57I like a challenge.
00:15:02Prior work experience.
00:15:05Hmm, I see you have won an internship.
00:15:09Yeah, from grad school.
00:15:10I was in product development.
00:15:12Hmm, I saw that.
00:15:14Our department has pretty strict screening standards.
00:15:18You need two years' experience for an interview.
00:15:22How did her resume land on my desk?
00:15:26Sorry, Sean is the executive director's assistant.
00:15:29I have to run this by him.
00:15:31The boss hoped you'd consider it.
00:15:33Do you know one of the bosses here?
00:15:35No, I don't.
00:15:36I don't.
00:15:37Sean, I thought I had control over this project.
00:15:40The boss personally scanned her resume.
00:15:46The boss personally scanned her resume.
00:15:49Okay, but if he already made the decision, then why waste my time with an interview?
00:15:53Are you questioning his judgment?
00:15:54Um, excuse me?
00:15:56What are you guys talking about?
00:15:58I guess you don't need to worry about it.
00:16:00Did your stepmother organize this for you?
00:16:02She certainly could have.
00:16:03No, you're the one that set up the interview.
00:16:05All right, well, looks like you got the job.
00:16:07Congrats.
00:16:08I'm gonna send you the details and the offer to your email.
00:16:14What kind of interview is this?
00:16:17Don't worry, madam.
00:16:23Everything's under the boss's control.
00:16:33Alicia!
00:16:34I don't often run into such pretty women around here.
00:16:36I don't usually run into creeps around here.
00:16:38How's the job search going?
00:16:41It's good.
00:16:42I just interviewed with Vision Tech.
00:16:44Ever heard of it?
00:16:45Somewhat.
00:16:46Something weird happened, though.
00:16:48What's that?
00:16:49Someone must have put in a good word for me, because I think I got the job.
00:16:53Well, that's great.
00:16:54It's all cause to celebrate.
00:16:55How about a drink later?
00:16:56Oh, no.
00:16:57Not tonight.
00:16:58I have to start preparing and stuff.
00:16:59Actually, I'm gonna need to steal you tonight.
00:17:02Well, for what?
00:17:03My parents.
00:17:04They're gonna start second-guessing me if they haven't met my new, charming, intelligent,
00:17:09beautiful wife.
00:17:10Fine.
00:17:11But first, we have to get you a dress.
00:17:14Why?
00:17:15Well, you have to have a dress to look the part.
00:17:17I'm not the part.
00:17:18Don't forget that.
00:17:19Come on.
00:17:20What about our rules?
00:17:22How about this one?
00:17:31Okay, how about this one?
00:17:41Well, don't tell me to try on a dress and then not pay attention to it.
00:17:48Yeah, you look good.
00:17:50Good?
00:17:51I'd say I have you spellbound.
00:17:53Spellbound?
00:17:54Mm-hmm.
00:17:55Slightly intrigued at most.
00:17:56Whatever.
00:17:57Like the dress?
00:17:58Oh, I don't know yet.
00:17:59I'm waiting for my husband, but I think he really loves it.
00:18:01Hmm.
00:18:02Well, if you don't intend on buying the dress, I'm gonna need you to take it off.
00:18:03What do you mean?
00:18:04I just told you that I don't know.
00:18:05No offense.
00:18:06We see this kind of thing all the time.
00:18:07I'm sorry, I don't think I follow.
00:18:08Don't take this the wrong way.
00:18:09But lots of people come in here and try on dresses and they can't afford them and that's
00:18:13okay at a secondhand thrift store.
00:18:15But these dresses are quite expensive.
00:18:16Are you trying to say that I can't afford this dress?
00:18:17We see your kind here all the time.
00:18:18My kind?
00:18:19I'm sorry, I don't think I follow.
00:18:20What do you mean?
00:18:21I just told you that I don't know.
00:18:22No offense.
00:18:23We see this kind of thing all the time.
00:18:24I'm sorry, I don't think I follow.
00:18:25Don't take this the wrong way.
00:18:26But lots of people come in here and try on dresses and they can't afford them and that's
00:18:30okay at a secondhand thrift store.
00:18:32But these dresses are quite expensive.
00:18:34Are you trying to say that I can't afford this dress?
00:18:37We see your kind here all the time.
00:18:40My kind?
00:18:41I'm sorry, I...
00:18:42We'll take it.
00:18:43We'll take it.
00:18:47We'll take it.
00:18:48Sir, this dress costs $8,000.
00:18:51You look great.
00:18:52I'm spellbound.
00:18:54$8,000 is a lot of money.
00:18:57The cost doesn't matter.
00:18:58For you, darling, anything.
00:19:00Miss, we'll take this.
00:19:02Oh, I'd be happy to help.
00:19:05However, I'm gonna need you to apologize to my wife first for the rude mistake you just made.
00:19:12Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know.
00:19:15She's going to be a regular here now, so remember her face.
00:19:18You would make a ridiculous mistake like that again.
00:19:21Of course.
00:19:23I would.
00:19:24Hey, Lucius.
00:19:25Hey.
00:19:26Louis, sweetheart.
00:19:27It's been ages since I got to see you.
00:19:28I'll call you.
00:19:29I take it you know all the women here?
00:19:30Most.
00:19:31Hmm, just like Hugh Hefner.
00:19:32Mr. and Mrs. Lyon.
00:19:33I'm so sorry we didn't visit sooner.
00:19:34No worries.
00:19:35Look at you, Alicia.
00:19:36So beautiful.
00:19:37You know, our brother, I'm so sorry we didn't visit sooner.
00:19:39No worries.
00:19:40Look at you, Alicia.
00:19:41So beautiful.
00:19:42You know, I really feel like Lucius is going to start behaving now that he's landed a catch
00:19:49like you.
00:19:50Sure, she's got me right in her pocket.
00:19:51Well, then I'd better not hear any more stories about you gallivanting around town with all
00:20:00manners of loose tarts then.
00:20:01Alicia, please.
00:20:02Just make yourself at home.
00:20:03I'm really sorry.
00:20:04I'm sorry.
00:20:05I'm sorry we didn't visit sooner.
00:20:06No worries.
00:20:07Look at you, Alicia.
00:20:08So beautiful.
00:20:09You know, I really feel like Lucius is going to start behaving now that he's landed a catch
00:20:10like you.
00:20:11Sure.
00:20:12She's got me right in her pocket.
00:20:13Well, then I'd better not hear any more stories about you gallivanting around town with
00:20:14all manners of loose tarts then.
00:20:16Alicia, please.
00:20:17Just make yourself at home.
00:20:19And I'm really starting to lose my patience.
00:20:22I think we should get out of here before I say something that I regret.
00:20:34Such a wonderful couple.
00:20:35Happy family.
00:20:39You have been gone for ages.
00:20:41You forget about me the minute you're married off.
00:20:46You have been gone for ages.
00:20:48Did you forget about me the minute you're married off?
00:20:49Of course not.
00:20:50How could I forget about you?
00:20:51You're always on our mind, dear.
00:20:52I know we're only married in title, but can you please stop flirting with other women
00:20:55in front of me?
00:20:56Or can you not keep it in your hands?
00:20:58Oh, it's nice to meet you too.
00:21:00Kiki's been my best friend since we were children.
00:21:03Don't be jealous.
00:21:04Jealous?
00:21:05You're the one that wanted me here for appearances.
00:21:08Can you at least pretend like we're married if it's that important?
00:21:11Also, is she like even 18?
00:21:13This whole Leonardo DiCaprio look, it's not working for you.
00:21:16I need a drink.
00:21:18Kiki, please keep my darling wife company for a bit.
00:21:21You two are really an eye catcher.
00:21:23Yeah, my brother is so cute.
00:21:25He's funny and kind too.
00:21:27Consider yourself lucky to have him even if only for appearances.
00:21:31Brother?
00:21:32Yeah, my biological brother.
00:21:37I'm sorry, I didn't know he had a sister.
00:21:39It's alright, we like to mess with the newcomers.
00:21:41Welcome to the family, Slice.
00:21:42I guess smart ass runs in the family.
00:21:44Not like you.
00:21:46Lucius is gonna have his hands full.
00:21:47I have my hands full.
00:21:49He's a womanizer.
00:21:50He just plays playboy to piss off her father.
00:21:54Is he really that bad?
00:21:56He just puts on an act.
00:21:58If you want to understand, just take it easy on him, okay?
00:22:06So, Lucius, it's been a while.
00:22:08Yes.
00:22:09Have you been?
00:22:10Jesus, I almost believed his sister's crap.
00:22:12I need to get out of this nightmare.
00:22:14I don't know about that one.
00:22:17Excuse me.
00:22:22Alicia, wait.
00:22:24Wear my coat.
00:22:26It's cold.
00:22:30Alicia, wait.
00:22:32Wear my coat.
00:22:34It's cold.
00:22:39Why don't you just go back inside and play grab ass with the other women?
00:22:43Why do you care?
00:22:44You said we'd stay out of each other's lives.
00:22:46Because?
00:22:47Because?
00:22:48Because?
00:22:49Is it because you're jealous?
00:22:52In your dreams.
00:22:55Just forget about it.
00:22:57Let me take you home.
00:22:59Please?
00:23:02Fine.
00:23:04Now, button your coat.
00:23:06It's cold.
00:23:07Thanks for the ride.
00:23:08I'm sorry.
00:23:09I got so mad.
00:23:10You're my wife.
00:23:11You have every right to be mad.
00:23:13Can I come in?
00:23:14No, no.
00:23:15No, we are not having a repeat of what happened that night after the bar.
00:23:16Who said anything about that?
00:23:17And FYI, you did come on to me first.
00:23:18Yeah, well that was a mistake.
00:23:19Clearly I wasn't thinking straight.
00:23:20Can I have a snack?
00:23:21I haven't eaten anything all day.
00:23:24Please?
00:23:25Pizza rolls.
00:23:26That's all I have.
00:23:27You're right.
00:23:28No, no.
00:23:29Just like that.
00:23:30You're right.
00:23:31No, no, no.
00:23:32But, I'm sorry.
00:23:33No, no, no, no.
00:23:34No, no, no.
00:23:35No, we are not having a repeat of what happened that night after the bar.
00:23:37Who said anything about that?
00:23:38And FYI, you did come on to me first.
00:23:39Yeah, well that was a mistake.
00:23:40Clearly I wasn't thinking straight.
00:23:42Can I have a snack?
00:23:45I haven't eaten anything all day.
00:23:47Please?
00:23:48Pizza rolls.
00:23:49Wow, a looker and a chef.
00:24:00Shut up, eat, and leave.
00:24:02You never cease to amaze me.
00:24:04What?
00:24:05I thought you were like other socialites, but here you are, a working girl eating pizza
00:24:10rolls.
00:24:11Yeah, well neither are exactly a choice, Lucius.
00:24:14No, I guess not.
00:24:19Why don't you live with your father and mother?
00:24:22Laura's not my mother.
00:24:23I don't really have a family.
00:24:24I've been alone since I was 18.
00:24:27I'm sorry, I don't know the first thing about you.
00:24:31You are not the first person to say that to me.
00:24:34Well, why did you agree to this marriage then?
00:24:38This?
00:24:41Laura only wanted me to marry you for your family's money.
00:24:44She didn't want her own daughter marrying a pretty rich man whore.
00:24:48Ouch.
00:24:49So we made a deal.
00:24:53I marry you in Candace's place.
00:24:56I get the house.
00:24:59This?
00:25:00This is it?
00:25:01This house?
00:25:02You married me for a house?
00:25:04Yeah, it was my mom's house.
00:25:07You know, all my memories, all the good ones, they're here.
00:25:14I know it's small and it's old.
00:25:20But I love everything about it.
00:25:24The color, the texture.
00:25:29I even like the smell.
00:25:31The smell?
00:25:32Yeah, it smells like my mom.
00:25:37Can't you file a lawsuit?
00:25:38This is your mother's legacy.
00:25:40No, the...
00:25:41The deed's in my dad's name.
00:25:43He's such a weak-willed coward.
00:25:45Laura walks all over him.
00:25:47So I honor our agreement for two years and I get the house.
00:25:56I'm sorry.
00:26:01What if I don't want this to end?
00:26:13Hi.
00:26:14Um, I sh- I should go to bed.
00:26:18Enjoy the pizza rolls.
00:26:20Good night.
00:26:22Alicia.
00:26:23I know you love this place.
00:26:26But it's so far from your work.
00:26:28I want to help in any way that I can.
00:26:31So maybe to better focus on your work, you can move in with me.
00:26:38I'll think about it.
00:26:39Wear my coat.
00:26:52It's cold.
00:27:12Okay.
00:27:14Have you seen that movie?
00:27:16I heard someone pulled the strings for her.
00:27:18She's pretty.
00:27:19Don't you know she'd have to walk?
00:27:21Mmm, I could make up a few facts.
00:27:31There's bound to be gossip.
00:27:34I'm- I'm sorry.
00:27:36What exactly are you trying to say?
00:27:38Word is you slept with the boss, but you know people like to gossip.
00:27:47Yeah, whatever.
00:27:49Think of it as a little office hazing.
00:27:54Now, our new CEO is having a meeting at 11. I need you to record the minutes.
00:28:00Got it.
00:28:02Hello everyone, department heads, project leads.
00:28:04I am Jamal Lyon, your new CEO.
00:28:08Jamal?
00:28:12Jamal?
00:28:12What's the matter with you?
00:28:15So, to get things started off, I would like reports from the department heads.
00:28:31Is Jamal the one you slept with?
00:28:35Alicia Brown, did not expect to see you here.
00:28:38Hi, Mr. Lyon. I'm Jenna, Alicia's supervisor.
00:28:41Hi, Jenna. Do you mind? I'd like to have a private conversation with Alicia.
00:28:47Sure.
00:28:52You want to have a quick chat over coffee?
00:28:55I still have a lot of work. I have to...
00:28:56Just take a second. Come on. Just check out my office.
00:28:58I never thought I'd work for you.
00:29:06Well, you know, boss, employee, they're just meaningless titles, right?
00:29:11Yeah.
00:29:12By the way, um, I've been meaning to, uh, to catch up with you.
00:29:17You didn't.
00:29:19Alicia, I, I don't like the way that we left things in school.
00:29:23We were on different tracks. I mean, you were so busy, I barely saw you.
00:29:27I still think about you.
00:29:31A lot.
00:29:33So I take it you graduated then?
00:29:36That took a little longer than you, but yes.
00:29:38Congrats.
00:29:43So I was wondering if maybe you would, um, want to go out and get a drink with me sometime?
00:29:48Family? Family business.
00:29:53Do you know, do you know Lucius?
00:29:56Hey, bro.
00:29:57Lucius?
00:29:58W-what are you doing here?
00:29:59You know, I thought you would come see me when you came back in town,
00:30:04but it looks like you, uh, decided to see your sister-in-law instead.
00:30:07You're a good sister-in-law, what is that?
00:30:09Yeah, uh, I didn't mention it, but I'm, I'm married.
00:30:12You married him?
00:30:14Yeah, uh, I didn't mention it, but I'm, I'm married.
00:30:18You married him?
00:30:19But, uh, Alicia, he's...
00:30:21Hey, let's not forget who's been running the family business since you've been off playing schoolboy.
00:30:24Oh, is that what you call it? Is that why I was called in to save the family business?
00:30:28Because you've been doing such a great job.
00:30:29Oh, is that right? Solitaire helps with productivity, does it?
00:30:32Well, I'm on the board of directors, remember that?
00:30:35So, I have every right to fire you right now.
00:30:38No, Lucius, you just have half a mind.
00:30:39Guys, stop.
00:30:41Brothers?
00:30:42No.
00:30:42Yes.
00:30:45Yes, technically, but I wish we weren't.
00:30:47So, you're the boss here?
00:30:50One of them.
00:30:51So, is that how I got the interview?
00:30:54You know, no, no, of course it is.
00:30:56What happened to staying out of each other's business?
00:30:59You just shut up, okay?
00:31:02You know what your little stunt did?
00:31:03It made everyone here think that I'm sleeping my way to the top.
00:31:07I'm sorry.
00:31:07You know what, you're no better.
00:31:09You might as well just told everybody that we fucked.
00:31:12Did you?
00:31:13Not since grad school.
00:31:14What?
00:31:15Look, I'll tell her to take care of you.
00:31:18Both of you just do whatever the fuck you want without any consideration of how it affects other people.
00:31:23So, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to get back to work before Jenna fires me.
00:31:27I don't know what happened between you and her, but leave her alone.
00:31:39You know, Lucius, maybe if you knew how to treat a woman, she would have stormed out there like that.
00:31:44How about you think about that as you get the fuck out of my office?
00:31:47Oh, are you going to tell dad?
00:31:49Maybe.
00:31:50Yeah, that sounds about right.
00:31:56Hey, how are you going to come along with me?
00:32:00It's going really good.
00:32:01Yeah?
00:32:01Yeah.
00:32:02Yeah, I do.
00:32:03Everything accomplished?
00:32:03Mm-hmm.
00:32:04Yeah.
00:32:04Let me give you a shot.
00:32:09Hey.
00:32:09Hi.
00:32:10I got us some coffees.
00:32:11You want to have a little one in my office?
00:32:13Yeah.
00:32:13Yeah.
00:32:20I'm not trying to make it hard on you, but your meetings have put you way behind schedule.
00:32:26I know.
00:32:27I need you to get back on schedule by the end of the day.
00:32:30I'll get caught up by the end of the day.
00:32:31Hey.
00:32:38Hey, I was just about to call you to my office.
00:32:40You and Jamal need to stop.
00:32:42It's making the rumors worse.
00:32:44Okay.
00:32:44I'll tell you what.
00:32:45I'll work from home, but.
00:32:48But what?
00:32:49But we never had that date.
00:32:51Huh?
00:32:52One of our rules, I wanted a date.
00:32:57Fine.
00:32:58But if you guys don't stop, I'm going to tell your daddy about the workplace practices.
00:33:02I want some tonight to go off without a hitch, Sean.
00:33:13I'm in some hot water.
00:33:14Well, have you considered a gift to go with dinner?
00:33:18I'm in some hot water.
00:33:30What?
00:33:31I just wanted to apologize.
00:33:33I shouldn't have gone behind your back with the whole interview thing.
00:33:38It was shitty.
00:33:40But you meant well.
00:33:41I tend to try to fix things before they start.
00:33:43But I promise, I won't go behind your back again.
00:33:47Just forget it.
00:33:49Compared to my evil stepmother and her devil spawn.
00:33:53It was kind of sweet.
00:33:55Well, I hope you're enjoying yourself.
00:33:57I am.
00:33:59Thank you for the date.
00:34:01It's nice to unwind.
00:34:05What are you doing?
00:34:07Just another I'm sorry gift.
00:34:17Oh, oh my god, it's beautiful.
00:34:21Lucius, I can't accept this.
00:34:22It must have been a fortune.
00:34:24Come on.
00:34:25From husband to wife.
00:34:26Okay, well, I will take good care of it.
00:34:34I thought about moving in.
00:34:36Yeah, so what do you say?
00:34:37Since I'm so far from work, I'll do it.
00:34:41But only on weekdays.
00:34:43Well, welcome to your new home.
00:34:49You didn't tell me you only had one bed.
00:34:52Husband and wife tend to sleep together in one bed.
00:34:56No science, it's not like it's the first.
00:34:57Okay, we're not actually married.
00:35:02Sure, of course.
00:35:03Yeah, you're right.
00:35:05Tell you what.
00:35:06Why don't you take the bedroom and I'll pull couch.
00:35:09Oh no, that's okay.
00:35:09I can take the couch.
00:35:10Too late.
00:35:13So I have a question.
00:35:15Shoot.
00:35:16Your sister said that you put on this sort of act.
00:35:21Did she?
00:35:23Yeah, that you're not the suave heartbreaker that you lead on.
00:35:31What kind of person do you think of you?
00:35:32I don't know.
00:35:38I think I agree with her.
00:35:41I think you're really thoughtful.
00:35:44In my family, there's little room for fuck-ups.
00:35:47Jamal plays to that just fine.
00:35:50But I don't.
00:35:52So I play into what they assume.
00:35:54I don't think it's a secret in how I feel about you, Alicia.
00:36:11Would you believe me if I told you that I've never felt this way before?
00:36:14Your daughter is ruining everything.
00:36:26The Lyons family isn't even interested in our business propositions.
00:36:30Mr. Lyons is a very busy man.
00:36:33I'm sure he has many other concerns on his mind.
00:36:37She's been bad-mouthing us.
00:36:39That doesn't sound like an issue.
00:36:42That's not in our character.
00:36:43Daddy, she's been away from you for so long.
00:36:46How do you know that?
00:36:47Candy, honey, you're my daughters.
00:36:51My little angels.
00:36:53But she said it herself.
00:36:55She's not family.
00:36:58She doesn't mean to like us.
00:37:02Looks like she doesn't even want that shabby house after all.
00:37:10What do you want?
00:37:14No, you can't do that.
00:37:23The house stays in my family.
00:37:24Two years of marriage and I get the house.
00:37:26The deal's changed.
00:37:27Why?
00:37:29You thought you could scheme behind my back?
00:37:31You've been sabotaging our relationship with the Lyons family.
00:37:34I never did that.
00:37:35I married you off to foster our family's relationship.
00:37:39You didn't follow through with your deal.
00:37:41The Lyons family business has nothing to do with me, but I'll talk to Lucius and I'll see what I can do.
00:37:50You should have done that from the start.
00:37:52The house remains on the market, but I'll sell it to you.
00:37:55How am I supposed to get that kind of money?
00:37:57It's not my problem.
00:38:00All right, ma'am.
00:38:01You're late.
00:38:12God, you're so cocky.
00:38:14Not finishing your work, showing up whenever you feel like it.
00:38:17Hey, I'm talking to you.
00:38:19Sorry, I feel dizzy.
00:38:22Don't you pretend to be sick.
00:38:24Alicia?
00:38:26Alicia!
00:38:27I didn't touch her.
00:38:34Stress, low blood sugar, that combination when you're pregnant.
00:38:38What, pregnant?
00:38:40And for weeks.
00:38:41Who's the father?
00:38:43I'm a doctor, but I'm not that good of a doctor.
00:38:52I'm not that good of a doctor.
00:39:06Hey.
00:39:09Where am I?
00:39:10You're okay.
00:39:10You're safe.
00:39:16Well, there is something I need to tell you.
00:39:20What?
00:39:22Pregnant.
00:39:26You should talk to Alicia's.
00:39:28No, no, no, he does not need to know.
00:39:32Alicia, he's your husband, and he helped you get into this mess.
00:39:39Jamal, there's something I need to tell you.
00:39:43Our marriages.
00:39:46It's not what it looks like.
00:39:49Hi, Mr. Lyon.
00:39:50Is there anything I can do for you?
00:39:51Yeah, where's Alicia?
00:39:52Oh, she's been sent to the hospital.
00:39:54What?
00:39:55What the hell happened?
00:39:56I, I don't know.
00:39:59Where is she?
00:40:00Your brother took her.
00:40:02What is it about Alicia that has you all fawning over her?
00:40:04She's my wife!
00:40:05Wait, what, a contract marriage?
00:40:10So you were forced to marry him, but you've already slept with him.
00:40:15I know, it sounds crazy.
00:40:17And you're gonna divorce him in two years, but what about, what about the child?
00:40:21I don't know, I mean, this wasn't planned.
00:40:23I can't even afford my house.
00:40:24How am I supposed to take care of a child?
00:40:31Hey, don't tell Lucius.
00:40:34I, I want to tell him myself.
00:40:38Okay.
00:40:39Okay.
00:40:40Hey, I'm kind of hungry.
00:40:43Could you give me a snack?
00:40:45Please?
00:40:46Yeah, I'll, uh, I'll be right back.
00:40:48Thanks.
00:41:18I promise I'll buy it back when I have enough money.
00:41:42Hey.
00:41:45Alicia?
00:41:48Alicia!
00:41:50Where's Alicia?
00:41:51She was just right here, man.
00:41:52I don't know.
00:41:53She's gone.
00:41:53How could you lose her?
00:41:54You're a husband, man.
00:41:55How do you not know?
00:41:57Tell me what happened.
00:42:01She was just feeling lightheaded.
00:42:02That's all.
00:42:03I just, we need to find her.
00:42:18Well, well, well.
00:42:34We don't get pretty girls in here often.
00:42:41I kind of lost my way.
00:42:43That bag says otherwise.
00:42:45Name is Lippy.
00:42:46What is that I can do for you, Miss?
00:42:49Brown.
00:42:53Do you mind if I take a look?
00:42:55Yeah.
00:42:55Do you want to sell the address, Miss Brown?
00:43:04Oh, my, my.
00:43:06That's quite the necklace.
00:43:08How much do you think I could get for it?
00:43:12I don't know.
00:43:14The necklace is nice.
00:43:17I would normally say 6k, but I like you.
00:43:22I'll make it seven.
00:43:25The necklace itself is worth double that.
00:43:28Yeah, but it's second hand and the dress, too.
00:43:31That lowers the value.
00:43:35But I said I like you.
00:43:37And I'm no villain.
00:43:3910k.
00:43:40No.
00:43:41I'm sorry.
00:43:42I know what these are worth.
00:43:43All right, lady, all right.
00:43:45I can get you the full price for the necklace.
00:43:49But with the dress and you standing up for yourself,
00:43:5413,250, that's the best that I can do.
00:43:58Okay.
00:43:59Good.
00:44:08Your boyfriend get these things?
00:44:10Yeah.
00:44:10Jesus, the poor fool must be in love.
00:44:15Actually, it's my husband.
00:44:19Right, he does love me.
00:44:28Right, she does love me.
00:44:37You're fucking with me?
00:44:38I'm sorry, I can't sell these.
00:44:40I'm really sorry for wasting your time.
00:44:41You dumb bitch, you come here wasting my time?
00:44:43I'm sorry.
00:44:53One of my men saw Mrs. Brown go into a pawn shop today,
00:44:56on the corner of West and Perkins.
00:44:57Limpies?
00:44:59The place is a shithole.
00:45:00Take me there quick.
00:45:10I'm gonna get the fuck out of here.
00:45:19I already told your boss I won't sell to him.
00:45:21You fuck off.
00:45:22We're past the point of negotiating there, sweetheart.
00:45:25You should stay out of the East End, princess.
00:45:27There's muggers all over.
00:45:29Fuck off the cops.
00:45:29You are way out of your desk.
00:45:31Let go of me!
00:45:32Give me the bag.
00:45:33Help!
00:45:34Oh, please!
00:45:35Please!
00:45:36Please!
00:45:39Help!
00:45:45All right.
00:45:50You know who you're fucking with.
00:45:52It's Mr. Limpies and he ain't happy.
00:45:53You best pray we don't catch with the boys.
00:45:55You better go rise in the back of your head, son.
00:45:57Nobody's gonna get where he goes!
00:45:58Keep your ass.
00:45:59It's gonna be me.
00:46:06I'm sorry.
00:46:08It's fine.
00:46:10You're safe.
00:46:13Let's get you out of here.
00:46:28What are you doing at Limpies store?
00:46:30That guy's no good.
00:46:32I was trying to pawn the stuff you gave me.
00:46:36I'm so sorry.
00:46:37I'm an idiot.
00:46:39You could have told me that you didn't like the gifts.
00:46:42No, no.
00:46:43It wasn't.
00:46:44It wasn't that.
00:46:47I needed the money.
00:46:49And I didn't know what to do.
00:46:52I'm not mad that you tried to sell the gifts.
00:46:53Remember when you got mad at me for always trying to fix things by myself?
00:47:01Why didn't you tell me?
00:47:02I could have given you the money.
00:47:03I didn't want to be a third.
00:47:07You're worth more than any amount of money to me.
00:47:09You're worth more than any amount of money to me.
00:47:22Can you stay with me?
00:47:23Can I just cuddle?
00:47:37Of course.
00:47:38You've been through a lot.
00:47:40I stopped doing business with the Brown family.
00:47:48I didn't know Laura was going to take it out on you.
00:47:52I'll handle it.
00:47:54But first I got to make sure that Limpies dealt with.
00:47:56What are you going to do?
00:48:02Don't worry about it.
00:48:04But if you ever get in trouble again, tell me.
00:48:09Tell me.
00:48:20Should I tell you about this?
00:48:21Wake up, Limpie.
00:48:32You're too pretty for this job.
00:48:35Why don't you call your butler off of there and do this, okay?
00:48:37You know I might look real nice or I could be pretty mean when I need to be Limpie.
00:48:49I actually kind of like it now.
00:48:52I did you a favor when I broke your bad leg.
00:48:57Don't make me break a good one.
00:49:00What the hell do you want?
00:49:03I won't come near your girl, okay?
00:49:05I want to believe you.
00:49:08What do?
00:49:10But I need you to send a message.
00:49:16Tell your rats that if they come near me or my wife again, I'm going to kill them.
00:49:24Then we're going to kill you.
00:49:28Do you hear me?
00:49:31Yes, Mr. Lion.
00:49:35Mr. Lion does on both sides of the law.
00:49:50Be thankful he didn't take your shot, along with your leg.
00:49:53Mr. Lion does on both sides of the law.
00:49:56Mr. Lion does on both sides of the law.
00:49:56Mr. Lion does on both sides of the law.
00:50:00Where to now?
00:50:02Let's go pay the Browns a visit.
00:50:07Alicia, what are you going to do about the pregnancy?
00:50:10I don't really know.
00:50:12Everything's been moving so fast.
00:50:16Well listen, I care about you.
00:50:17So if you're worried that Lucius isn't going to be around to help, I will.
00:50:26I don't really know what he thinks.
00:50:28We're not really on the best terms right now.
00:50:32Okay.
00:50:37Just let me get one thing straight then.
00:50:40Are you two...
00:50:43going somewhere?
00:50:44You brewed this yourself?
00:50:56It tastes like shit.
00:50:59What can I do for you?
00:51:01Well you must be wondering how your worthless stepdaughter entrapped my heart.
00:51:07I don't much care what Alicia does.
00:51:09Honey, please don't talk about my daughter like that.
00:51:16I am puzzled by how you managed to run most of your family's business affairs.
00:51:20Well, my family needed my help.
00:51:23And I'd like to prove my father wrong.
00:51:26What do you want?
00:51:26I'd like to shut up gold diggers like you.
00:51:30What did you say?
00:51:33Okay, let's cut to the chase.
00:51:35What can we do to get our families working together again?
00:51:40Well, I think we're all on the same page here.
00:51:43We agree to do business with your family.
00:51:46And I get to buy Alicia's mother's house from you.
00:51:50And if I say no?
00:51:52Do you really want to leave 10 million dollars on the table
00:51:55because of your petty bullshit with my wife?
00:51:57Do you want to leave 10 million dollars on the table?
00:52:19Now, this is for the house.
00:52:22Alicia owes you nothing.
00:52:24And I'm pretty impatient.
00:52:29So you're never going to get this offer again.
00:52:35Mr. Lyon, Lucius, I'll show you out.
00:52:42Oh, and uh, please don't forget to send me the deed of the house.
00:52:48Yeah.
00:52:50Seems like Alicia has everything she wants now.
00:52:53I won't be humiliated by that little whore.
00:53:02Hi.
00:53:03Everything all right?
00:53:05Yeah, I needed to tell you something.
00:53:09Me too.
00:53:11Oh, you go first.
00:53:14Look what I got.
00:53:18The house is mine?
00:53:22Lucius, how?
00:53:23Your stepmother won't bother you anymore.
00:53:29Oh, oh my god.
00:53:30I don't know what to say.
00:53:35I know that this sounds crazy, but...
00:53:43I'm glad that Laura had us married.
00:53:45I feel so lucky we've got married.
00:53:49I was drowning before I met you.
00:53:51The socialites, parties.
00:53:53You're the first real woman I've ever met.
00:53:59You think way too highly of me.
00:54:03Maybe, uh, we should get divorced.
00:54:08Break up this whole contract marriage and start over?
00:54:10Not before we have a proper first date.
00:54:24From wife to girlfriend?
00:54:25I know.
00:54:25I like it.
00:54:27So, what did you want to tell me?
00:54:29I have a question.
00:54:37Go ahead.
00:54:39Do you see yourself being a father?
00:54:42Having kids?
00:54:45I don't know.
00:54:46I've never really thought about it.
00:54:47I didn't grow up with much of a father,
00:54:49and I know that can really mess a kid up.
00:54:51Yeah.
00:54:52No, I'd want you to be secure in yourself
00:54:54before having to look over someone else.
00:54:56But if you wanted to be a mother,
00:55:00I would support you in any way I could.
00:55:03You've already done so much for me in the last few weeks.
00:55:20Well, I guess this coffee day isn't to get to know me better.
00:55:26I'm pregnant.
00:55:31What?
00:55:33Okay, well, you need to tell Lucius, not me.
00:55:36It's not like I've ever been pregnant before.
00:55:42We both come from fucked up families.
00:55:45I'm not sure either of us are really ready yet.
00:55:48I mean, I don't want to emotionally blackmail him.
00:55:51Okay, but it's on him as much as you.
00:55:54I mean, you couldn't do a mutual decision, so.
00:55:57I know.
00:55:59You're right.
00:56:00Yes.
00:56:01I'll tell him today.
00:56:04Hey, baby bro.
00:56:05Hey, did Alicia tell you anything?
00:56:14About what?
00:56:17Nothing, never mind.
00:56:17It's about her house.
00:56:19Well, I've already taken care of that.
00:56:24Sure, yeah.
00:56:25Probably her right there.
00:56:27What?
00:56:34What is it?
00:56:36Father wants me back home.
00:56:38What?
00:56:54Your parents' house.
00:56:55Yeah, yeah, of course.
00:56:56I'll be back.
00:57:01Lucius, you need to keep calm about this.
00:57:04Dad, what's so urgent?
00:57:06Where's Alicia?
00:57:07She's on her way.
00:57:10What's this?
00:57:11Well, you should watch for yourself.
00:57:13Lucius Lion broke my leg.
00:57:23I'm the owner of a small farm shop, and I refuse to buy his life's knock-off jewelry.
00:57:28And he sent his goons to beat me up.
00:57:32It's all her rumors that, as Mr. Lion's shady dealings,
00:57:37and my attempt to confirm them is that they're locked in science.
00:57:45Damn, right.
00:57:46And that's a legal action, which I will release in short.
00:58:01Thanks for your cooperation.
00:58:03As long as their free solutions get a piece of my mind.
00:58:07This is only the beginning.
00:58:12I told you you need to change your ways.
00:58:14Jamal never gives me any problems.
00:58:17He always does as I tell him.
00:58:19Those thugs were trying to hurt Alicia, and I was protecting her.
00:58:22Don't talk back to your father.
00:58:25Don't you even talk about your wife.
00:58:27She's a fraud.
00:58:28Bite your tongue.
00:58:30What if your father's right?
00:58:31Her stepfather has told us about her.
00:58:33Told you what?
00:58:33That they abandoned her when she was a child because of her rotten attitude.
00:58:38That's just Laura lying.
00:58:39She hates me, so she forced Alicia to marry me instead of Candace.
00:58:44Sweetheart, she tricked you.
00:58:46You have no idea what a woman like this is capable of.
00:58:49You just get a divorce.
00:58:51We will not allow a snake in the lion family.
00:58:58We will not allow a snake in the lion family.
00:59:00What are you talking about, snake?
00:59:02Sweetheart, don't listen to them.
00:59:04It's Laura lying and tricking them again.
00:59:06You're a snake.
00:59:08You're nothing but a manipulative creep.
00:59:10Shut up, Victor.
00:59:11I won't tolerate you disrespecting my wife like this.
00:59:14No, Lucius, stop.
00:59:14I want to hear what they have to say.
00:59:16You married Lucius just to save your house.
00:59:21You will not use our wealth and our power for yourself.
00:59:24It's enough.
00:59:25Stop this bullshit right now.
00:59:27You tricked my son for money.
00:59:29I will not stand for that.
00:59:30She was trying to save her house, and I'm okay with it.
00:59:33You guys have brought shame to the family.
00:59:37I've worked my entire life to build this reputation,
00:59:40and it will not be tarnished by a, by a strumpet.
00:59:47I've worked my entire life to build this reputation,
00:59:49and it will not be tarnished by a brazen strumpet.
00:59:53Yep, it's Laura again.
00:59:55You must get a divorce,
00:59:57or Laura will divulge all of Lucius's secrets
01:00:01about being with a low-light petty criminal.
01:00:03Now I understand why you hate your parents.
01:00:05Victor, we're done, and I'll be goddamned if I divorce her.
01:00:10I will take away all of your privileges,
01:00:12all of your rights, all of your funds, everything.
01:00:15You'll be penniless.
01:00:16Be my guest.
01:00:21Alicia.
01:00:23Alicia, you'll never have to see them again.
01:00:25I just want to be by myself.
01:00:26Let me keep you company.
01:00:27He'll take away everything that you have,
01:00:29and my stepmother just wants to see me suffer, so I don't-
01:00:31He holds no power over me, and he can threaten me all he wants.
01:00:35I mean, just, please.
01:00:37I'm going to take care of your stepmother.
01:00:38I need, I need a minute to calm down, okay?
01:00:41Just, please leave me alone.
01:00:49Our plan worked.
01:00:51Lucius Lyon is forcing the divorce.
01:00:53I couldn't stand seeing that bitch get away with everything.
01:00:56As long as Alicia's in the picture,
01:00:57Lucius' company will treat us as an enemy.
01:01:01They both needed to be put in their place.
01:01:03We still have one more card to play.
01:01:05Okay?
01:01:06I'm so sorry to put you through this, sweetie.
01:01:08Please be careful.
01:01:09You don't have to worry about a single thing.
01:01:12You don't have to worry about a single thing.
01:01:13You don't have to worry about a single thing.
01:01:29Where is he?
01:01:29Dig up everything you can on Laura's company.
01:01:42You've been enough of this crackpot.
01:01:48Enjoy.
01:01:48Enjoy.
01:01:50Are you okay?
01:02:20I feel dizzy.
01:02:30Are you Mrs. Lyme?
01:02:31Yes.
01:02:34Your husband's room car.
01:02:37He's had a bit too much to drink.
01:02:50Alicia, what are you doing here?
01:03:00Alicia, what are you doing here?
01:03:04Who the hell are you?
01:03:06Alicia, where am I?
01:03:08You're asking me that.
01:03:10Alicia, I finally get why you like him so much.
01:03:15Don't listen to her.
01:03:16I don't know what happened.
01:03:17Don't touch me.
01:03:19I'll tell you what happened.
01:03:21Your drunk husband came out to me.
01:03:23He was telling me how much he missed your first night, so he brought me up here to try to recreate it.
01:03:31You see, it's in the same room.
01:03:34That's not true.
01:03:35I didn't.
01:03:36Just when I thought I found someone that understood me.
01:03:37I didn't cheat.
01:03:38I've been drunk.
01:03:39I can't believe that I was just about to ask you to answer a chat.
01:03:42What?
01:03:43Do you not assume you have to be a bot and you definitely do not have to be a point.
01:04:03Alicia, wait!
01:04:05Alicia, wait!
01:04:06I can explain!
01:04:07I don't want to hear it!
01:04:11I don't want to hear it.
01:04:12Please, is it my child?
01:04:13Now he'll end up fatherless just like you.
01:04:20Alicia, wait, I can explain.
01:04:21I don't want to hear it.
01:04:22Please, is it my child?
01:04:24Now he'll end up fatherless just like you.
01:04:26Please, when did this happen?
01:04:27Is that really important after what you just did to me?
01:04:29After we left my parents, I went to the bar.
01:04:31I got drugged.
01:04:32Your sister and your stepmother are behind this.
01:04:34Ever since we got married, everything has gone wrong.
01:04:36Work your parents everything.
01:04:37I can fix this.
01:04:38Look, I'm going crazy.
01:04:39I'm tired, Lucius.
01:04:40I can't do this anymore.
01:04:42Please, just give me a chance.
01:04:43I can stop all this.
01:04:44Lucius!
01:04:47We're done.
01:04:52They're through.
01:04:53When we release these photos, hellhole Victor, he'll have an aneurysm.
01:05:01What have you done?
01:05:05They're through.
01:05:06When we release these photos, hellhole Victor, he'll have an aneurysm.
01:05:08What have you done?
01:05:09Alicia's my daughter.
01:05:13Laura.
01:05:14How can you be so cruel?
01:05:15If it weren't for you and your little brat, I wouldn't have to go this far.
01:05:18It was Alicia who tricked Lucius into going against us.
01:05:19We're just getting even.
01:05:20That's enough.
01:05:21I won't condone this type of behavior any longer.
01:05:22I'm sorry.
01:05:23I'm sorry.
01:05:24I'm sorry.
01:05:25I'm sorry.
01:05:26I'm sorry.
01:05:27I'm sorry.
01:05:28I'm sorry.
01:05:29I'm sorry.
01:05:30I'm sorry.
01:05:31I'm sorry.
01:05:32I'm sorry.
01:05:33I'm sorry.
01:05:34I'm sorry.
01:05:35I won't condone this type of behavior any longer.
01:05:39He's all talk.
01:05:42Coward.
01:05:44What?
01:05:45He slept with your sister?
01:05:46Yeah.
01:05:47You're sure?
01:05:48I bet it was Candace that set it up, but I can't just forgive him.
01:06:02I literally can't get what I saw out of my head.
01:06:05So you'll divorce him?
01:06:07The marriage was a mistake anyway.
01:06:09Well, what about the baby?
01:06:15I don't know.
01:06:17Yeah, you're a coward, Lucius.
01:06:20As a matter of fact, get out of my office, man.
01:06:22You're just a waste of space.
01:06:27You're just gonna let her go?
01:06:29Just like that?
01:06:30No.
01:06:33Then what the hell are you still doing here, man?
01:06:35Listen, I know we haven't always seen eye to eye.
01:06:40But we are brothers, and you could have said something to me.
01:06:43Didn't she tell you about this pregnancy days ago?
01:06:46She did.
01:06:48But think of all the shit you put her through, man.
01:06:51Everything.
01:06:52If you were in my shoes, would you say anything?
01:06:57This time, I'm going to fix everything.
01:07:00Boss, I found the waiter that drugged you.
01:07:15You've earned it!
01:07:17I would do.
01:07:18I would live down.
01:07:19The Lions won't be able to trace this back to us?
01:07:22I drugged him.
01:07:23You slandered him publicly.
01:07:27Candace and her mother hate that woman.
01:07:29You take care of him.
01:07:31I can be sure.
01:07:33His father hasn't banished him.
01:07:35Without his family, this is just Lion is nothing.
01:07:43Who said I needed that old man?
01:07:45What are you doing here?
01:07:47Mr. Lion, I've recorded all of our meetings.
01:07:50I have everything right here.
01:07:51You drug anyone ever again, I'll see to it personally that you're serving drinks in hell.
01:08:01You hear me?
01:08:02Yes, sir.
01:08:03Get out.
01:08:13Now, do as I say.
01:08:22Jenna.
01:08:24I quit.
01:08:26What?
01:08:27Why?
01:08:28You're the owner's wife.
01:08:29Yeah, well...
01:08:31We're getting a divorce.
01:08:32Have you thought this through?
01:08:42Yeah.
01:08:43Even without Candace's little stunt.
01:08:45We can't be together.
01:08:47My stepmother will never approve of it, and neither will your father.
01:08:52I thought that Lucius said he was gonna find evidence to prove there's nothing between him and Candace.
01:08:57Yeah, he's said it a million times, but things keep happening.
01:09:00I just...
01:09:01I can't do it anymore, Jamal.
01:09:03What about the child?
01:09:04I'll take care of it myself.
01:09:07Just tell Lucius whatever I owe him, I'll pay him back.
01:09:12I'll see you later.
01:09:14It's good to see you.
01:09:16Find me if you need anything.
01:09:18Sounds good.
01:09:29Almost like a dream.
01:09:31Almost like a dream.
01:09:56Almost like a dream.
01:10:02Kiki?
01:10:05Lucius wants you to come to my house to watch a show.
01:10:08A show?
01:10:14Alicia.
01:10:16How dare you show your face here?
01:10:18Lucius told me to come.
01:10:21You need to stop looking for Lucius.
01:10:24You are no longer a lion.
01:10:28Nor are you a brown.
01:10:29Well, hopefully I won't have to deal with you animals for very much longer.
01:10:36We have got to stop bumping into each other like that.
01:10:38What do you want?
01:10:39Just spit it out.
01:10:41Take a seat, please.
01:10:48What sort of game are you playing, Lucius?
01:10:51Sweetheart, have a seat and watch.
01:10:54Look, can we just get this over with, please?
01:10:56Everyone's here.
01:11:06If these photos get out, we're doomed.
01:11:09Did you just bring me here to humiliate me all over again?
01:11:12Maybe she's there.
01:11:14I'd like to hear what the leading lady here has to say.
01:11:18I explained it already.
01:11:23Lucius was drunk and he forced me up to his hotel room.
01:11:29I couldn't fight him.
01:11:31Mr. Lion, we've known for years your son is a playboy.
01:11:35I could sue you all for this.
01:11:36Bravo.
01:11:38Great acting.
01:11:40It's so authentic, don't you think?
01:11:42Lucius, you need to apologize for your lewd, salacious behavior.
01:11:48Mr. Limpy?
01:11:53Limpy?
01:11:54Don't call me that, don't call me that.
01:11:55Candace, Mrs. Brown, you look unwell.
01:11:57They know everything, so no need to play claims.
01:11:59Who are you?
01:12:00I don't know him.
01:12:02You're that paralytic that my son beat up.
01:12:04Yes, I am.
01:12:05They gave me a lot of money to report Lucius.
01:12:07Liar!
01:12:09Liar!
01:12:10The Lions won't be able to trace this back to us.
01:12:11I drugged them.
01:12:12That night, Mr. Lion's drink was spiked.
01:12:13That's already a crime.
01:12:15I don't know him.
01:12:16I don't know him.
01:12:17You're that paralytic that my son beat up.
01:12:19Yes, I am.
01:12:20They gave me a lot of money to report Lucius.
01:12:22Liar!
01:12:24Liar!
01:12:30The Lions won't be able to trace this back to us.
01:12:32I drugged them.
01:12:35That night, Mr. Lion's drink was spiked.
01:12:38That's already a crime.
01:12:45You can go now.
01:12:46We're even.
01:12:50That's not true.
01:12:53That is enough.
01:12:56I'm cutting off all the ties between the two families.
01:12:59No, we can provide more.
01:13:02Not anymore.
01:13:03I've reported all the illegal activities of your company to the authorities.
01:13:06I'm taking it too far this time, Laura.
01:13:10Mr. Brown.
01:13:11Right in the nick of time.
01:13:13What are you doing here, Harry?
01:13:16Laura, you're a mean person.
01:13:18I'm divorcing you.
01:13:19You can't get along without me.
01:13:21You're nothing but a limp dick in a sea of snakes.
01:13:24Dad, why are you doing this to me?
01:13:27Guards, take Candace and Mrs. Brown away, please.
01:13:30I've hired a prosecutor.
01:13:32You should hire a lawyer.
01:13:33No, father.
01:13:34I'm your daughter.
01:13:35I love you, Candy.
01:13:36I can't tolerate this kind of behavior.
01:13:39Scumbag!
01:13:40Go to hell!
01:13:41Alicia, sweetheart.
01:13:42I've been a fool.
01:13:43I'm so indebted to you.
01:13:45I've been a silly old man.
01:13:47Can you forgive me?
01:13:49You've been a fool.
01:13:50I'm so indebted to you.
01:13:52I've been a silly old man.
01:13:54Can you forgive me?
01:13:55You've done enough, Dad.
01:13:57You're gonna be fine.
01:13:59Well, I do have a conscience,
01:14:00so I suppose I owe you an apology, Ms. Brown,
01:14:02for all the slanders and misfortunes that
01:14:04you're going to be done.
01:14:05I don't know.
01:14:06I'm going to be a fool.
01:14:07You're going to be a fool.
01:14:08I'm going to be a fool.
01:14:09I'm going to be a fool.
01:14:10I'm so indebted to you.
01:14:11I'm a silly old man.
01:14:12Can you forgive me?
01:14:13You've done enough, Dad.
01:14:15You're gonna be fine.
01:14:17Well, I do have a conscience,
01:14:19so I suppose I owe you an apology, Ms. Brown,
01:14:22all the slanders and misfortunes that
01:14:25you've been troubled with.
01:14:28It's okay.
01:14:29I'm used to it.
01:14:35So this was a show?
01:14:37Brilliant.
01:14:38Is all this not enough, Alicia?
01:14:40Nope, not nearly enough.
01:14:43Is all this not enough, Alicia?
01:14:44Nope, not nearly enough.
01:14:47Then what is it I have to do?
01:14:49You still haven't said you'll raise our child.
01:14:53Wait, she's with child?
01:14:56A lion?
01:14:59This is fantastic.
01:15:00I mean, it was in wedlock.
01:15:01I mean, if only technically.
01:15:05Why is everybody just standing around?
01:15:07Somebody get her a drink!
01:15:09Easy, old man.
01:15:10Your grandchild hasn't been born yet.
01:15:13We'll have a checkup this instant.
01:15:23It doesn't even look like a real person.
01:15:27I guess you're not fit to be a father after all.
01:15:30It's a month old.
01:15:40You know, I really am excited about all this.
01:15:48I just wish you would have told me sooner.
01:15:58I think we should have a real wedding this time.
01:16:00I agree.
01:16:09You owe me that much.
01:16:12You two!
01:16:14Again?
01:16:16I look so silly.
01:16:17You look gorgeous.
01:16:18I wish you'd have done this three months ago.
01:16:19Relax.
01:16:21Can we hurry this up?
01:16:22I'm feeling a little...
01:16:24funky.
01:16:26What's wrong with that?
01:16:27No, no.
01:16:28What?
01:16:30I think I'm going into labor.
01:16:32What?
01:16:33I think I'm going into labor.
01:16:35You're...
01:16:36Okay, you're craving capers.
01:16:37No, I think I'm going into labor.
01:16:40Labor, labor.
01:16:41Yes, labor, labor.
01:16:42Let's go.
01:16:43We got to go to the house.
01:16:44No.
01:16:45We are having this wedding.
01:16:47What are you...
01:16:48What are you going to pop it out on the pew?
01:16:52Okay, let's go.
01:16:53Let's go.
01:16:59Well, I'll be here when you get back.
