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