00:00:01Your overall health is fine, but your AMH levels are low.
00:00:05Meaning your ovarian reserves are below average for your age.
00:00:10Um, will that make it hard to get pregnant?
00:00:14Not always, but if you want children, I would recommend you sometime soon.
00:00:20Soon? How soon?
00:00:23Ideally within three months.
00:00:25Oh my god.
00:00:30Sweetheart, don't cry.
00:00:34Having you was the best thing I ever did.
00:00:38Mom.
00:00:40I just hope you'll have children of your own one day.
00:00:44After I'm gone.
00:00:45Yeah.
00:00:47I promise.
00:00:50I love you so much.
00:00:53I love you, sweetie.
00:00:55I've always wanted kids.
00:00:58Maybe it's time.
00:00:59Maybe it's time.
00:01:00I'm so sorry.
00:01:01I'm sorry.
00:01:02I was...
00:01:03I think that's fine.
00:01:04Hey, I'm sorry.
00:01:05I'm sorry.
00:01:06I'm sorry.
00:01:07I think that was fine.
00:01:08Hey, I'm sorry.
00:01:09I didn't see that coming.
00:01:10I didn't see that coming.
00:01:11Handsome guy.
00:01:12Not expected kiss.
00:01:13I didn't see that coming.
00:01:14Handsome guy.
00:01:15Not expected kiss.
00:01:16Oh.
00:01:17Oh.
00:01:18Oh.
00:01:19Oh.
00:01:20Are you okay?
00:01:21Okay.
00:01:22Hmm.
00:01:23Hmm.
00:01:24Okay.
00:01:25Hmm.
00:01:26Hmm.
00:01:27Hmm.
00:01:28Hmm.
00:01:29Hmm.
00:01:30Hmm.
00:01:31Well, well.
00:01:32If it isn't my perfect life, I'm sorry.
00:01:34I'm sorry.
00:01:35I'm sorry.
00:01:36I'm sorry.
00:01:37I'm sorry.
00:01:38I'm sorry.
00:01:39I'm sorry.
00:01:40I'm sorry.
00:01:41I'm sorry.
00:01:42Hmm.
00:01:43Hmm.
00:01:44Hmm.
00:01:45Hmm.
00:01:46Hmm.
00:01:47Hmm.
00:01:48Hmm.
00:01:49Hmm.
00:01:50Hmm.
00:01:51Hmm.
00:01:56Well, well.
00:01:57If it isn't my perfect innocent ex, what's the occasion?
00:02:02Hmm.
00:02:03Are you pregnant too?
00:02:05Hmm.
00:02:06I'm not as efficient as you, Ryder.
00:02:08We broke up, what, three months ago?
00:02:10And Candy is six months alone.
00:02:12Impressive timeline.
00:02:13Oh, please.
00:02:15You couldn't keep a man, let alone raise a kid.
00:02:19Or, are you here to raid the sperm bank and DIY a family?
00:02:24Hmm.
00:02:25Hmm.
00:02:26Hmm.
00:02:27Hmm.
00:02:28Hey, get that back.
00:02:29No, no.
00:02:30Dad.
00:02:31If you're not married by 30, even the trust and accompaniment to your brother is fine.
00:02:36Look, Mom, seriously, I...
00:02:38Hmm.
00:02:43Oh, low AMH, diminished ovarian reserve.
00:02:46Recommended to start trying within three months.
00:02:49Oh, poor her.
00:02:51My thing.
00:02:52Wow.
00:02:53Looks like the golden goose is running out of eggs, huh?
00:02:55Fuck, fuck.
00:02:56This is truly a plot twist.
00:02:59I'm really worried about you, Claire.
00:03:10I mean, a girl with your... history?
00:03:12Mm-hmm.
00:03:13You think you're gonna be able to snag a sperm donor before your eggs are all dried up?
00:03:16You're basically a clearance rack.
00:03:19Expired, free, and still no takers.
00:03:23No takers.
00:03:25You can rest assured, I already have a boyfriend.
00:03:29Yeah.
00:03:31MIT, 6-2, IQ off the charts, trust fund air, practically built for greatness.
00:03:38Way better than loser rider.
00:03:41Boyfriend.
00:03:42Ugh.
00:03:43Sure, Claire.
00:03:44Uh, let me guess.
00:03:45He lives in the Canadian wilderness?
00:03:46Or some bullshit like that?
00:03:47And the best thing of all, he has the one thing you can't die.
00:03:51Oh, its funny.
00:03:52You're funny.
00:03:53How about we make a bet?
00:03:54If you're not pregnant, within, say, three months, you have to admit the truth.
00:04:11You are just a dried up old woman.
00:04:13You have to admit it, out loud, and to the public.
00:04:17Oh, baby, you're bad.
00:04:19And if I win, you streak through the office naked, screaming that you are nothing but a little slimy suck-up bitch boy.
00:04:34Deal. Game on, Miss Nobody Wants You.
00:04:38Nobody wants you.
00:04:41Oh my God. What the fuck did I just do?
00:04:44Even the sperm banks are booked six months out, and I only have three.
00:04:51Where the hell am I going to find the perfect gene donor boyfriend?
00:04:55Oh God, someone help me.
00:04:57Now that's interesting.
00:05:02You know, I think I could help with that.
00:05:14Ethan Reed, MIT, PhD, IQ 200. That's my medical report. No genetic disorders, clean family history. I take every bucks on your donor wish list.
00:05:26Okay. What's the catch?
00:05:32You marry me contractually three months, just long enough to shut my family up and lock in my inheritance.
00:05:39In return, you get my sperm.
00:05:42And we get you pregnant just in time to win your little bet.
00:05:46That's really all you want? A paper marriage?
00:05:50Look, Claire, I'm not looking for love. I'm looking for efficiency.
00:05:54Honestly, this might be the fastest route to motherhood.
00:06:04All right. Deal.
00:06:15Boss.
00:06:18Prenuptial agreement.
00:06:19Prenuptial agreement.
00:06:24Thanks.
00:06:27Okay.
00:06:28Three rounds of artificial insemination.
00:06:30Temporary cohabitation to keep up party appearances.
00:06:34Contract terminates after three months.
00:06:38I'd like to add one more term.
00:06:40Oh?
00:06:41Financial independence.
00:06:43I don't want anyone thinking I'm some gold taker.
00:06:45Fair enough.
00:06:48If that's what you want, I'm in.
00:06:51Great.
00:06:52Great.
00:07:00Lovely.
00:07:00Excuse me, Mr. Reed.
00:07:03Are you ready to head into the collection room for your investment?
00:07:08Sure.
00:07:09Good luck.
00:07:17Mrs. Reed.
00:07:18Would you like to go in with him?
00:07:20Show him a little support.
00:07:22Oh, no.
00:07:23I...
00:07:23Oh.
00:07:24No.
00:07:24Excuse me.
00:07:25I...
00:07:25Oh.
00:07:27Oh, no.
00:07:28Um, excuse me.
00:07:29I...
00:07:30Uh...
00:07:30Hey.
00:07:37Need any, uh...
00:07:39Help with that?
00:07:42Oh.
00:07:43And, um, how, pray tell, do you plan on helping me?
00:07:48No, I, um...
00:07:49That's a sweet one, though.
00:07:50Um...
00:07:51Yeah, I did not mean that I was gonna...
00:08:06Oh, my God.
00:08:09Shut up, shut up, shut up.
00:08:11Please, how do I turn this off?
00:08:12Um...
00:08:13Claire?
00:08:13Shut up.
00:08:14How do I...
00:08:15How do I make this stop?
00:08:17This is so crazy.
00:08:18Um...
00:08:19Like that.
00:08:30Um, you should probably get started.
00:08:33I probably should.
00:08:34Yeah.
00:08:35I'm gonna...
00:08:36I'm gonna wait outside.
00:08:37Be my guest.
00:08:38Okay.
00:08:39Bye.
00:08:45Adorable.
00:08:49Enjoying yourself?
00:08:58Doctor.
00:08:59Thank you, Mr. Reed.
00:09:00Of course.
00:09:00We'll begin shortly.
00:09:01You can wait outside.
00:09:03Okay.
00:09:04If you need anything, just...
00:09:06Yell for me.
00:09:14Yeah.
00:09:14Boss.
00:09:20You married somewhere out of the blue?
00:09:21Feels a little impulsive.
00:09:23Even for you.
00:09:25No.
00:09:26It's not impulsive.
00:09:27Actually, she's...
00:09:28I don't know.
00:09:30She's...
00:09:31Interesting.
00:09:35Anyways, what'd you find?
00:09:37Mrs. Reed has been working as a designer at NOVA.
00:09:40Her ex cheated on her with his boss, Candy Ashford.
00:09:45Miss Ashford's been making her life hell ever since.
00:09:48Just last week, she killed Mrs. Reed's proposal.
00:09:52Said it wasn't feminine enough.
00:09:55Bye, NOVA.
00:09:57Make Claire the new design director.
00:10:00Seriously?
00:10:01Yeah.
00:10:03Look, our marriage may have a dead wife.
00:10:06But she's still my wife.
00:10:08Anyone mistreating my wife is mistreating me.
00:10:12She's dead, sir.
00:10:14Now, go get the car ready.
00:10:16We have to go meet Mom.
00:10:18Captain.
00:10:26Hello?
00:10:27Mr. Reed, the procedure went smoothly.
00:10:29We'll know in four weeks if it was successful.
00:10:32Oh, wonderful.
00:10:39Thank you so much, Mr. Reed.
00:10:41I might actually get to be a mom now.
00:10:45Of course.
00:10:47But, um...
00:10:48You know, we are married now.
00:10:51And you are my wife.
00:10:53Call me Ethan.
00:10:55Fake wife.
00:10:58Remember?
00:10:59Right.
00:11:03So, Ethan.
00:11:05You've done your part.
00:11:06When do I get to do mine?
00:11:08Right now.
00:11:10We're about to go meet my mother.
00:11:13Okay.
00:11:18Mother.
00:11:20This is...
00:11:21My wife.
00:11:22Claire.
00:11:23Claire.
00:11:24My mother.
00:11:25Nora.
00:11:25Nora, it's so lovely to meet you.
00:11:28Hi.
00:11:36Oh, sweetie.
00:11:38I've been looking forward to this for so long.
00:11:41And you rascal.
00:11:42So this is why you kept dodging all my matchmaking attempts.
00:11:46Uh, yeah, I'll explain that eventually.
00:11:52Of course.
00:11:53You won't ever win your wedding night.
00:11:56Come, Byron.
00:11:57They have a mission.
00:11:59Make me a grandchild.
00:12:02Don't have too much fun.
00:12:04Okay.
00:12:06Okay.
00:12:11It's my mother.
00:12:13Yeah.
00:12:20Uh, sorry for grabbing here without having a chance to panic.
00:12:24This should be for now, honey.
00:12:34Thanks.
00:12:35Beers.
00:12:39I'll go and make something here.
00:12:43Make yourself home.
00:12:44Oh, my God.
00:12:53And his cologne is perfect.
00:12:56I mean, my knees are actually weak.
00:12:58Too bad it's just temporary.
00:13:00Three months and that is it.
00:13:02God.
00:13:03I need a grip.
00:13:04What am I doing?
00:13:07Okay.
00:13:08What are you making?
00:13:09Okay.
00:13:14I'm making some things.
00:13:27Sure.
00:13:32Oh, my God.
00:13:34I just got promoted.
00:13:36Design director.
00:13:37I start tomorrow.
00:13:37Oh, my God.
00:13:41Oh, shit.
00:13:42I am so sorry.
00:13:43I did not do that.
00:13:43No, no, no.
00:13:43It's fine.
00:13:45No, really.
00:13:45It's...
00:13:45Oh, Claire.
00:13:49Yeah.
00:13:51Claire, be careful, please.
00:13:52No, it's fine.
00:13:52There's just a huge thing.
00:13:53No, Claire, you don't under...
00:13:55Oh.
00:13:57Oh.
00:13:57Oh.
00:13:58Oh.
00:14:04Careful.
00:14:06Claire, you are playing with fire.
00:14:09Is it straight?
00:14:11Holy shit.
00:14:13Yep.
00:14:13Definitely hard.
00:14:15And definitely huge.
00:14:18Oh, jeez.
00:14:19I'm...
00:14:19I, um...
00:14:20No, it's not really.
00:14:27Okay.
00:14:28That body should come with a warning label.
00:14:31You made this loss.
00:15:00You clean it up.
00:15:03Uh...
00:15:03Where are you going?
00:15:06Oh.
00:15:06I'm just...
00:15:07I'm just gonna go take a cold shower.
00:15:09You know, put out the...
00:15:11Well, here you started.
00:15:12If I'm a new design director, candy butters, you're packing up her desk.
00:15:26I can't wait.
00:15:26I can't wait.
00:15:27I can't wait.
00:15:35Yeah.
00:15:35I can't wait.
00:15:36Yeah.
00:15:37What's going on here?
00:15:38Waiting for the new CEO, obviously.
00:15:42Nova got bowed out yesterday.
00:15:44Word is his rich, young, and single.
00:15:47I call dips.
00:15:49Oh, Claire.
00:15:50Don't forget your perfect jean baby bat with Ryder.
00:15:54Maybe.
00:15:55You could try your luck with the new CEO.
00:15:57Lots of old money there.
00:15:58With a face like that?
00:16:01Land the CEO?
00:16:02Please.
00:16:03What are you gonna do?
00:16:04Sneak into his bed and turkey base yourself?
00:16:09I don't need to trap anyone, Ryder.
00:16:12Unlike you, I offer value all on my own.
00:16:15Oh, please.
00:16:17You have been so heartbroken, you can't even manage a rebound.
00:16:20What are you expecting?
00:16:22Immaculate conception?
00:16:24I don't need divine conception.
00:16:27And for all you know, I'm already pregnant.
00:16:30Please.
00:16:31Keep my hand.
00:16:44Welcome to Nova Mystery.
00:16:46Welcome to Nova Mystery.
00:16:52Is it?
00:16:54Uh.
00:16:56Uh.
00:16:57Welcome, sir.
00:16:59I'm Claire.
00:17:01From design.
00:17:11Claire.
00:17:16Design director.
00:17:20Effective.
00:17:22Immediately.
00:17:24Yes, sir.
00:17:31Okay, what?
00:17:33She is barely qualified, and I have been running this program for two years.
00:17:38If she is director, then who am I?
00:17:42Support staff.
00:17:43Come on, that is blatant favoritism.
00:17:49Byron.
00:17:50I've done some research on Nova before acquiring it.
00:17:53This sketch, created by Miss Miller herself,
00:17:58has had the highest performing markers a year straight.
00:18:01If anything, I'd say this promotion is long overdue.
00:18:05So, how do you know the new CEO?
00:18:19I, I don't.
00:18:21Don't lie.
00:18:23He comes and promotes you first thing, and you don't know him?
00:18:26Come on, babe.
00:18:30The new guy's obviously clueless.
00:18:32That's why he picked her.
00:18:33No real skill.
00:18:36Yeah.
00:18:37It won't lie.
00:18:37Ethan.
00:18:54Claire.
00:18:55Claire.
00:18:55Why did you buy Nova, and make me the director?
00:19:02Well, because you're my wife.
00:19:07And more importantly, you're talented.
00:19:10Look, Claire, I'm not going to waste that.
00:19:14But, everyone's going to think I'm just here because of you.
00:19:18Maybe, but we're connected nonetheless, Claire.
00:19:25Contract or not, you are the future mother of my child.
00:19:27And the future mother of my child will not be disrespected.
00:19:31So, I'll tell everyone today and clear the air.
00:19:34No.
00:19:35Wait, Ethan, you can't go public.
00:19:39Please.
00:19:41I don't want to be the woman who's known for using your sperm to climb the ladder.
00:19:46Seen by home.
00:19:49Ryder.
00:19:50Candy.
00:19:51Anyone.
00:19:52You're the CEO, Ethan.
00:19:54I've just...
00:19:55I've just been under contract.
00:20:00And in three months, it's all over.
00:20:03Isn't it?
00:20:07Alright.
00:20:08It's your choice.
00:20:10Okay.
00:20:16Yeah, Byron, what is with that woman?
00:20:23I mean, any sane person would kill to be Mrs. Street, right?
00:20:27She acts like it's a life sentence.
00:20:30That must be what makes her so...
00:20:33interesting.
00:20:35Hmm.
00:20:37Maybe.
00:20:38Maybe.
00:20:38Long meeting with the CEO.
00:20:54I guess that means we can add him to your perfect gene list.
00:20:58Hmm.
00:21:00Someone seems desperate.
00:21:02What?
00:21:03Are you nervous?
00:21:05Afraid to lose the back?
00:21:06Mind your own business, Ryder.
00:21:11Mind your own business, Ryder.
00:21:15Mind your own business, Ryder.
00:21:16I want me back.
00:21:46I want you to shoot a sugar daddy now.
00:21:58Ever since I saw her getting that payback, nothing, no sign of it again, was it all just
00:22:04for show.
00:22:05Stale.
00:22:06Mr. Reed says you've all been working hard.
00:22:09Lunch is on him.
00:22:10The design team is going to grab their own special menu.
00:22:14I said you're doing wonderful.
00:22:17You bring that to you, Claire.
00:22:21I'm going to grab a bowl of water.
00:22:26I'm going to grab a bowl of water.
00:22:31I'm going to grab a bowl of water.
00:22:36Tastes fine to me.
00:22:55Unless you're pregnant or something.
00:22:58You got a secret boyfriend hiding somewhere?
00:23:06Please, um, I'm just not feeling great.
00:23:17I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:23:22Could she really be pregnant?
00:23:36What the hell?
00:23:41This is the ladies' room.
00:23:43No way.
00:23:43Are you seriously pregnant?
00:23:45Back off.
00:23:46That is none of your business.
00:23:47It is if your concerns are bad.
00:23:48Now spill.
00:23:49Who's the Maybach guy?
00:23:51Your sperm donor?
00:23:53She said back off!
00:23:55Oh, my God.
00:24:25She's not really pregnant, is she?
00:24:32Now, I don't see why that would be any concern of yours.
00:24:35Well, hey, I'm just looking out for her, boss.
00:24:37I mean, after all, she used to be my girlfriend.
00:24:43Guess her eggs really are busted, aren't they?
00:24:45Or maybe that perfect gene donor of yours shooting blanks.
00:24:49I'll tell you what.
00:24:50I'll help you out for a whole time's sake.
00:24:51Don't want that money in the bone.
00:25:00You are disgusting!
00:25:03Oh, you bitch.
00:25:09Touch her, and I swear it'll be the last thing you ever do.
00:25:12Oh, fuck.
00:25:14What the fuck?
00:25:17Sorry, it's just a joke.
00:25:18Linax, you're all too protective of your employee.
00:25:21Something I should know about?
00:25:23Yeah.
00:25:25What happens between Claire and me?
00:25:27It's none of your goddamn business.
00:25:29So, put your damn mouth shut
00:25:32if you want to keep your job.
00:25:33Game.
00:25:48Claire.
00:25:50Claire.
00:25:52Hey.
00:25:56I'm sorry.
00:25:57Here.
00:25:57Here.
00:25:57You've been under a lot of stress,
00:26:05which can reduce ovarian function.
00:26:07Probably why conception hasn't happened.
00:26:10You need rest, moderate exercise,
00:26:12and a better mood
00:26:13before the next artificial insemination.
00:26:15So, it's my fault.
00:26:17Hey, no, no, no.
00:26:19No, none of this is your fault.
00:26:20All right, but we still have time, and...
00:26:30We're in this together, okay?
00:26:41Light movement helps.
00:26:43Walks, swimming, yoga,
00:26:46anything to keep your brain slow and present.
00:26:48You know, I bet you're
00:26:52pretty bomb at yoga.
00:26:55You're the shot.
00:26:57Great.
00:27:02Ladies, raise your hands slowly.
00:27:05Gentlemen, support your partners.
00:27:07Breathe together.
00:27:09Don't worry, I'm not going to try anything.
00:27:23Just relax.
00:27:27Now, gently lean back.
00:27:30Your back rests against your partner's chest.
00:27:32Feel their support.
00:27:34Feel the connection,
00:27:35their grounding presence.
00:27:37It's okay.
00:27:40Trust me.
00:27:47You know,
00:27:49you're kind of my sister's role,
00:27:50is that?

00:28:50Whoa!
00:28:53Oh!
00:28:54Oh, my God.
00:28:55I'm so sorry that that was an accident.
00:28:59Lucky me.
00:29:01He's just a contract partner.
00:29:04So why the hell is my heart doing backflips?
00:29:05Yes.
00:29:20Um, is that carrot your mortal enemy?
00:29:24Because you've turned it into confetti.
00:29:27You tried perfectly slicing for prenatal nutrition.
00:29:30I'm a novice under pressure, okay?
00:29:33You're actually trying to ace a pregnancy diet?
00:29:35That's oddly endearing.
00:29:44Oh!
00:29:45Let me take cover before that carrot presses charges.
00:29:48Uh-uh.
00:29:48Not a chance.
00:29:50Oh!
00:29:51Oh!
00:29:52Huh.
00:29:53Your job is to sit there and learn that we, right?
00:29:59We supervise.
00:30:00I stress.
00:30:01Okay.
00:30:01Okay.
00:30:03Okay.
00:30:10What?
00:30:11Wait, did you cut yourself?
00:30:13No, it's just a scratch.
00:30:16Here, let me see.
00:30:17There.
00:30:18I don't know.
00:30:19What?
00:30:20I don't know.
00:30:20There.
00:30:26Better?
00:30:26Well, this part wasn't in the contract, but, hell, I don't want her to stop.
00:30:52What?
00:30:53I hope I'm not crashing the honeymoon.
00:30:59Chris.
00:31:00What?
00:31:02What, your baby brother needs an appointment to come home now?
00:31:09And who is this beautiful mystery?
00:31:13Hi, I'm Claire.
00:31:15Chris, Ethan's younger brother.
00:31:18Just back from London.
00:31:20Okay.
00:31:23She's my wife.
00:31:26Now, feel free to make yourself at home, but don't overstay your welcome.
00:31:29Perfect.
00:31:30The family's all here.
00:31:32So, Chris, I was hoping that you can shadow Ethan at Nova to learn the ropes you're starting tomorrow.
00:31:40What?
00:31:41Come on, you guys.
00:31:42You are both adults.
00:31:44You've got to stop this sibling war.
00:31:46Come on, big brother.
00:31:48I mean, it's just a little family favor.
00:31:50You own the whole empire now.
00:31:53Fine.
00:31:55But don't be late.
00:32:01Oh, and Claire.
00:32:02I can't wait to work with you.
00:32:04Hey.
00:32:07It's not cool.
00:32:08It's not cool.
00:32:08Look, Claire.
00:32:19Listen to me.
00:32:20My brother...
00:32:23He's always been so competitive.
00:32:26I mean, anything I have, he wants.
00:32:28And I know he's...
00:32:32He's not here by accident.
00:32:34So, please...
00:32:36Promise me that you'll stay away from him.
00:32:41Yeah.
00:32:42Yeah, of course.
00:32:46You're right.
00:33:01They're in a three-month contract marriage.
00:33:03Ethan tries to keep it under wraps, but I found the calf surveillance footage.
00:33:07Send it your way.
00:33:10Received.
00:33:12Oh, Ethan.
00:33:13You've always been the crown prince.
00:33:17The heir.
00:33:18The one with the spotlight on him.
00:33:20But me?
00:33:21I was born in despair.
00:33:23So, big bro.
00:33:24Once again, you have something that I don't...
00:33:29Let's see who wins this round.
00:33:38Everybody, this is Chris.
00:33:42Oh, God.
00:33:46The newest member of the design team.
00:33:48Hello, colleagues.
00:33:50I cannot wait to learn from each of you.
00:33:53Chris is hot.
00:33:56He is CEO's younger brother.
00:33:58A total golden boy.
00:34:00And walking HR violation.
00:34:02If I can't land the CEO, the younger Mr. Reid is still a pretty sweet deal.
00:34:09Well, um...
00:34:11Good luck with that.
00:34:12Oh, and Claire, I believe I will be reporting to you.
00:34:20I think I'll be in great hands.
00:34:22Uh...
00:34:23Uh...
00:34:24Uh...
00:34:25Uh...
00:34:29Yeah.
00:34:31Welcome aboard, Chris.
00:34:34She's more than just a deal to you, isn't she?
00:34:38Well, you never did like Sharon.
00:34:41What do you want me to do?
00:34:42I don't know.
00:34:43I don't know.
00:34:44What do you want me to do?
00:34:46Okay.
00:34:50Yes, the Wilson sketches are approved.
00:34:52You can go ahead and send those over to the account this afternoon.
00:34:54And...
00:34:55Do you strike me as an Americana kind of girl?
00:35:01Thanks.
00:35:03You know, I think we should get lunch sometime.
00:35:06Just us together.
00:35:07It could be fun.
00:35:09My brother has always been so competitive.
00:35:13I mean, anything I have, he wants.
00:35:15So please, promise me that we'll stay away from him.
00:35:22Sorry.
00:35:23I just don't think I'll have time today.
00:35:26You're not scared of me already, are you, Claire?
00:35:28I mean, come on.
00:35:29I'm harmless.
00:35:30I don't bite.
00:35:32Of course not.
00:35:33I just don't think...
00:35:35Relax.
00:35:37I know your marriage to my brother is fake.
00:35:43How?
00:35:44How do you know that?
00:35:47No one keeps secrets from me, Claire.
00:35:50Although, I am a little curious about the kind of woman that
00:35:53suddenly gets my work with Holly brother to tie the knot.
00:35:56Even if it is a fake.
00:36:00What do you want?
00:36:02Lunch.
00:36:03Conversation.
00:36:04If I say no, and he spills the truth,
00:36:07Ethan loses everything.
00:36:10And if I say yes...
00:36:13Fine.
00:36:15Just lunch.
00:36:16Great.
00:36:16I will see you downstairs.
00:36:26Claire.
00:36:28My office.
00:36:29Now.
00:36:30I'll be right there.
00:36:34She really does mean something to you.
00:36:37Which means...
00:36:38This just got far.
00:36:45Claire, what did my brother say to you?
00:36:49Nothing.
00:36:51Just...
00:36:52Work stuff.
00:36:52Oh, okay.
00:36:58Good.
00:36:59Claire.
00:37:00Please.
00:37:01Just stay away from him.
00:37:03My brother has spent his entire life trying to ruin everything that I have.
00:37:10But I won't let him ruin this.
00:37:14Should I tell him about Chris asking me to lunch?
00:37:17Ethan, I...
00:37:21Hey, boss.
00:37:22Meeting's about to start.
00:37:25Okay.
00:37:25I'll be right there.
00:37:26All right.
00:37:26I gotta go.
00:37:27Um.
00:37:28I'll talk to you after, okay?
00:37:32One minute.
00:37:33I can handle it.
00:37:35Ethan's so busy.
00:37:36Okay.
00:37:36Okay.
00:37:47Chris?
00:37:59It's the same car as last time.
00:38:04Wait.
00:38:05Is Chris the perfect gene guy?
00:38:09After you.
00:38:11Uh.
00:38:11Isn't this Ethan's car?
00:38:14It is.
00:38:15No fucking...
00:38:17No fucking way.
00:38:20She actually landed a rich golden boy.
00:38:25Problem.
00:38:28Are you worried that your fake hubby will catch you with the wrong brother?
00:38:33What are you fucking about?
00:38:42Just kidding.
00:38:43We're just grabbing lunch from Smelly.
00:38:45No wonder she got director.
00:39:01Anne had the guts to make a bet with me.
00:39:05It's because you were all cozy with the CEO's brother.
00:39:07You know what?
00:39:12Time to take down the office sweetheart.
00:39:15No wonder she jumped the ranks.
00:39:20No wonder she jumped the ranks.
00:39:37CEO in the boardroom.
00:39:38CEO in the boardroom.
00:39:39Brother in the backroom.
00:39:41She's going to streets.
00:39:48Well, uh, boss.
00:39:56Go!
00:39:57Get out!
00:39:58And that will be all.
00:40:04Right away.
00:40:08Sorry, I'm gonna run to the bathroom.
00:40:11It's a free country.
00:40:17Come on, Claire.
00:40:18Come on, answer me.
00:40:19I can't wait to see the look on your face.
00:40:32Now, please read our data.
00:40:34She's not picking up.
00:40:38Chris, you better document her.
00:40:40It's called Les Jardins Secrets.
00:40:58It's a lovely place.
00:41:00Bye-bye.
00:41:04Fuck.
00:41:05Les Jardins Secrets.
00:41:07Step on it.
00:41:08On it.
00:41:09Fuck it, Chris.
00:41:19You seem kind of sad.
00:41:22Which is surprising because most women,
00:41:24they can't help but to smile around me.
00:41:27I'm fine.
00:41:29Look, Chris.
00:41:31I've had lunch now.
00:41:32So please, can you keep the contract thing to yourself?
00:41:35It's funny that this marriage is real enough to have a baby,
00:41:41but not real enough to matter.
00:41:44I mean, do you really love him?
00:41:45You bitch.
00:41:58Whoa.
00:42:01You bitch.
00:42:05Touch her,
00:42:06and I swear it'll be the last thing you'll ever do.
00:42:08I guess I do like him.
00:42:16A little.
00:42:18Oh, there's some hesitation.
00:42:21I'm not so sure if you're so sure.
00:42:23And how exactly does that concern you?
00:42:28Because if it's not love,
00:42:31maybe you just chose the wrong brother.
00:42:35You just chose the wrong brother.
00:42:38You.
00:42:39Are you trying to be funny right now?
00:42:41I am your sister-in-law.
00:42:43Your brother's wife.
00:42:45I'm leaving.
00:42:45Why don't you sit back down?
00:42:49What are you doing?
00:43:02Careful.
00:43:04Nothing.
00:43:05Nothing.
00:43:07You just have a little something right here.
00:43:12I guess that's just what happens when you're too focused on eating.
00:43:15Are you insane?
00:43:18No.
00:43:20I'm just testing out a theory.
00:43:22Seeing how he would react.
00:43:25Who?
00:43:41What the fuck are you doing?
00:43:42Ethan, what are you doing here?
00:43:50Relax.
00:43:52I was just fucking taking care of Claire.
00:43:56Oh, yeah?
00:43:57Whatever sick, twisted game you're playing,
00:44:00leave my wife out of it.
00:44:04Come on, Claire.
00:44:05Let's go.
00:44:06Oh, Ethan.
00:44:13You've fallen for her, haven't you?
00:44:14That only makes me want her more.
00:44:16Because now it's my turn to win.
00:44:18Come on.
00:44:19You're hurting me.
00:44:21Yeah?
00:44:21I just told you to stay away from my brother.
00:44:24Why are you at lunch with him?
00:44:26Why are you at lunch with him?
00:44:28Because he found out about the contract marriage.
00:44:31So what?
00:44:32Are you scared he'll tell someone?
00:44:34Or are you scared I'll back out and you'll lose your little bet?
00:44:36But no, it's not...
00:44:37Then what?
00:44:39Do you have feelings for him?
00:44:40Are you being serious right now?
00:44:42I've been trying to protect you.
00:44:44If your mother finds out her marriage is fake,
00:44:46she'll cut you off.
00:44:48Huh.
00:44:48She's actually worried about me,
00:44:50not just the baby.
00:44:51God, I mean,
00:44:52you are blowing this way out of proportion.
00:44:54And our marriage is just paperwork.
00:44:56So what if I'm having lunch with Chris?
00:44:57Why do you even care?
00:44:59Because it feels real.
00:45:01Claire.
00:45:01I'm so fucking tired of pretending that it doesn't.
00:45:04Claire.
00:45:08I am falling in love with you.
00:45:11And I was not prepared for that.
00:45:13Honestly, I didn't think I wanted that until I met you.
00:45:16What the actual fuck?
00:45:18He's jealous?
00:45:20Or is this some cruel joke?
00:45:23Why does my heart feel like it's about to explode?
00:45:27Please.
00:45:28I need to know if you feel the same.
00:45:32Right.
00:45:34I need to know if you feel the same.
00:45:39I do.
00:45:43I do.
00:46:02I do.
00:46:03I do.
00:46:03I do.
00:46:03I do.
00:46:03Congratulations, Mrs. Reed. Your hormone levels are back to normal. You're cleared for insemination next week.
00:46:16Oh my god. Thank you so much, doctor.
00:46:21And?
00:46:22Ethan, we're good to go. We can finally try again next week.
00:46:26Oh my god. Oh my god.
00:46:33Claire, I'm so sorry I ever got a joke.
00:46:45Good morning, Nova's very own sperm queen. How's the donor search going? Is the CEO's little brother premium enough for you?
00:46:53What is your problem, Ryder?
00:46:55I caught you cozying up to Chris Reed.
00:46:58I'm curious to see how Ethan's going to react when he finds out you've been playing both brothers.
00:47:05I don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:07And what exactly am I looking at? Two co-workers showing up to the office?
00:47:17No wonder you never deliver anything good. You're too busy playing paparazzi all day.
00:47:22Cut the crap, Claire. You strut around here like you earned that title. You think you're better than the rest of us, but guess what?
00:47:28You are nothing but an incubator with broken parts. Does Chris even know that your eggs are defective?
00:47:34You say one more word and I will sue you for defamation.
00:47:40You filthy bitch. Try me and you're done.
00:47:55Claire. Hey.
00:48:01Hey. Are you okay?
00:48:03Fine.
00:48:04Boss, I'm telling you the truth. Claire was only getting close to Chris because of a bet, okay?
00:48:09She's not this sweet, innocent angel. She is just playing him.
00:48:12One more slanderous word towards Claire and you're fired.
00:48:15For fuck's sake. She's just an employee. Why are you protecting her like this?
00:48:19Because, because he is my future girlfriend's boss.
00:48:26Oh, and Claire, I got these gorgeous flowers for you.
00:48:32Sweetie, are you okay?
00:48:37No.
00:48:38You don't know what the fuck you're doing, Chris.
00:48:43I do.
00:48:45I'm trying to work with Claire.
00:49:00Keep your filthy hands off her. She's a married woman.
00:49:04Wait, what?
00:49:06Claire is married?
00:49:07To who?
00:49:16Careful, big bro.
00:49:21I mean, you should really, really think this through.
00:49:25Once the truth gets out, well, we both know how mom's temper is.
00:49:30If she gets angry and takes away your inheritance, well, the breed group might just fall in my hands.
00:49:35I'm her husband.
00:49:36How is that even possible?
00:49:37How is that even legal?
00:49:38Wow.
00:49:39I can't believe you actually did it.
00:49:40You chose love over legacy.
00:49:41I mean, I am impressed.
00:49:42But you missed out the juicy bit.
00:49:44Why don't you tell everyone that your marriage is just a three-month contract?
00:49:46A business proposition.
00:49:47I warned you to stay the fuck out of our relationship, Chris.
00:49:49Cool.
00:49:50Off.
00:49:51Big bro.
00:49:52Your relationship has an expiration date.
00:49:53And once it's over, he won't prevent your time, and has an expiration date.
00:49:54And once it's over, it's all you won't make.
00:49:55And what?
00:49:56He won't come.
00:49:57No, no, no, no.
00:49:58No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:49:59No, no.
00:50:00No, no, no, no, no.
00:50:01Why don't you tell everyone that your marriage is just a three-month contract?
00:50:05A business proposition.
00:50:08I warned you to stay the fuck out of our relationship, Chris.
00:50:15Cool.
00:50:16Off.
00:50:17Big bro.
00:50:19Your relationship has an expiration date.
00:50:22And once it's over, she'll be mine.
00:50:24Yeah.
00:50:25Funny.
00:50:27Because I won't let you get close enough to steal her from me.
00:50:31That's enough!
00:50:41Both of you, stop!
00:50:43Stop it!
00:50:45Claire!
00:50:50Claire!
00:50:55Both of Reed brothers are fighting over Claire.
00:50:58What has she got that we don't?
00:50:59Her bedroom skills, of course.
00:51:02That's probably how she earned my promotion.
00:51:04How did I not see this sooner?
00:51:06She is sleeping her way to the top.
00:51:08What's left?
00:51:09Shut your mouth!
00:51:11If word of this gets out, I will end you.
00:51:17Claire.
00:51:18Claire.
00:51:18Let go of me.
00:51:20I'm sorry.
00:51:22I screwed up.
00:51:23I was impulsive.
00:51:23I can stop to think about how you might feel going public with our relationship.
00:51:28Stay fit, Ethan.
00:51:29I am done.
00:51:31I can't do this anymore.
00:51:33No.
00:51:34No, please.
00:51:35Please don't go.
00:51:36I only did it because I was scared of losing you to Chris.
00:51:40And that's why I rushed to tell everybody that you're my wife.
00:51:44But what about the consequences?
00:51:46If your mother finds out we're in a fake relationship, you'll lose everything.
00:51:49And Chris and I are not a thing.
00:51:52Okay?
00:51:52Okay?
00:52:00Listen to me.
00:52:02Right before you came into my life, all I cared about was my work and my inheritance.
00:52:07But I need you to know that as long as you're here with me, nothing else matters.
00:52:17Ethan.
00:52:18No.
00:52:19Don't worry.
00:52:20All right.
00:52:22I'm here with you.
00:52:25Whatever comes our way, we'll face it together.
00:52:28Okay?
00:52:29Okay.
00:52:29Okay.
00:52:37Sophia, if you don't hop on a plane right now, your ex, he might find us happily ever
00:52:52after somewhere else.
00:52:54What?
00:52:56That workaholic.
00:52:58I'm falling for someone.
00:53:00No.
00:53:01No.
00:53:01Not possible.
00:53:03What?
00:53:07Book me the next flight to New York!
00:53:21I don't care who she is.
00:53:24Ethan Reed is mine.
00:53:32Mmm.
00:53:33Your cooking's actually gotten a lot better.
00:53:36Oh.
00:53:37Doctor, just confirmed.
00:53:45We're good to go.
00:53:47I have appointments tomorrow.
00:53:52Perfect.
00:53:53We'll leave first thing in the morning.
00:53:55Go where?
00:53:56Exactly.
00:53:56Sofía?
00:54:12You're back?
00:54:15Ethan, I miss you so much!
00:54:18Claire, this is Sophia, an old friend.
00:54:33Sophia, this is my wife.
00:54:36It's nice to meet you.
00:54:39Pleasure.
00:54:40Though I'm not just a friend.
00:54:46I'm Ethan's ex.
00:54:50I think we broke up two years ago.
00:54:52It's nothing.
00:54:53We were so in love back then.
00:54:55I thought you'd wait.
00:54:57You know, if Chris hadn't told me, I'd still believe you were mine.
00:55:01If I remember correctly, you left to pursue a career halfway across the world.
00:55:06I thought that's what you wanted.
00:55:10Well, actually, she's my pick for brand manager.
00:55:15That won't be a problem to you, right, brother?
00:55:17What's the matter, Ethan?
00:55:21You don't want me back?
00:55:24Well, I'm afraid that decision's not entirely up to me.
00:55:26That's up to the board to decide.
00:55:29No!
00:55:31It's funny.
00:55:32What a coincidence.
00:55:33I just so happen to have big signatures, right?
00:55:37Oh.
00:55:47Well, if that's what the board wants, fine.
00:55:55We'll see if you're up to the task.
00:56:10Why did you tell me about Ethan and Claire?
00:56:12What's your angle?
00:56:14I want Claire and you want Ethan.
00:56:16We can help each other out.
00:56:18Help each other how?
00:56:20You?
00:56:21You can blow up their little fairy tale.
00:56:23And me?
00:56:24We'll carve your path straight to Ethan.
00:56:27Everyone wins.
00:56:29Let the games begin.
00:56:34Hey.
00:56:35What are you doing?
00:56:37Look, Claire, I'm...
00:56:39I'm sorry if the night upset you.
00:56:43But...
00:56:44Would it be bad if I was a little glad if it did?
00:56:49Does that mean that you were jealous?
00:56:52At least if you do care.
00:56:55Don't flatter yourself.
00:57:04She's from my past.
00:57:05All right, but...
00:57:06You...
00:57:07Are my wife.
00:57:12And...
00:57:12Once you're finally pregnant...
00:57:17We can make it official.
00:57:19Wedding.
00:57:20Life together.
00:57:22Wait.
00:57:23Wait, what did you just say?
00:57:24I don't want a contract married with you.
00:57:30I want it forever.
00:57:32Are you serious?
00:57:34And when my mom's back from Europe, we'll tell her too.
00:57:37Look, our marriage won't just be a show anymore.
00:57:43Then...
00:57:43Yes?
00:57:45Of course.
00:57:46We could try for that baby ourselves.
00:58:02We could.
00:58:05Oh, my God.
00:58:06Oh, my God.
00:58:16Oh, my God.
00:58:26Easy.
00:58:27Easy.
00:58:27Easy.
00:58:27Easy.
00:58:28What?
00:58:28What?
00:58:29Oh.
00:58:30Damn it.
00:58:31Damn it.
00:58:31Damn it.
00:58:31Damn it.
00:58:33Damn it.
00:58:35Hello?
00:58:38Ethan, I fell down the stairs.
00:58:41You called up.
00:58:42I'm really hurt.
00:58:44I can't move.
00:58:45Sophia, is there not anybody else you can call?
00:58:49Ethan, I don't know anyone else in this city.
00:58:53Who else am I supposed to call?
00:58:55Besides, are we not still friends?
00:58:57Always.
00:58:58No, fine.
00:58:59Yeah, I'll be over just a few.
00:59:05Hey, what happened?
00:59:08Um, it's Sophia.
00:59:10She apparently fell and hurt herself, and she doesn't really know anybody in the city,
00:59:14so I just need to go over and check on her.
00:59:18Do you want me to come?
00:59:20No.
00:59:21No, no, no.
00:59:21You stay here and rest.
00:59:22Sophia, you said you were hurt.
00:59:46Yummy.
00:59:46Oh, I did hurt my ankle.
00:59:52It still hurts when I walk.
00:59:54See?
00:59:55Ow.
00:59:57No.
00:59:58You lied.
01:00:01Well, I had to see whether you still cared.
01:00:03I was stupid to think you'd wait around forever, but seeing you now, I realized what I gave up.
01:00:11What we had.
01:00:12It's over.
01:00:14I'm married now.
01:00:17Married?
01:00:18It's just a contract.
01:00:20What?
01:00:21You think she loves you?
01:00:23She's in it for the genes.
01:00:26And honestly, Ethan, who could blame her?
01:00:32No, enough.
01:00:33Wait.
01:00:34Don't go.
01:00:35Please stay one night.
01:00:36That's all I ask.
01:00:37If you keep this up, we won't even be friends.
01:00:46All right.
01:00:48Friends, then.
01:00:50At least that way, I still get to see you.
01:00:57The latest male contraceptive.
01:00:59Not FDA approved yet, but it can instantly beacphate firm.
01:01:06Diffrential.
01:01:06Oh, Ethan.
01:01:15No way I'm letting that bitch, Claire, carry your child.
01:01:21You know you should rest up.
01:01:22Heal that ankle.
01:01:24Don't shit me late tomorrow.
01:01:26Wouldn't drain it.
01:01:27Mm-hmm.
01:01:29She can borrow you.
01:01:32But you're mine.
01:01:33To the grave.
01:01:34They took your sample ages ago.
01:01:45I mean, why haven't they called me in?
01:01:47Do you think something's wrong?
01:01:50Claire.
01:01:51Come on.
01:01:52Stop overthinking.
01:01:54All right.
01:01:55You know, they're probably just swamped with patients.
01:01:57I mean, stuff like this happens all the time.
01:01:59Yeah.
01:02:01Oh, see?
01:02:02Doctor, can I go in now?
01:02:05Not quite, Mrs. Reed.
01:02:06We've just received the results.
01:02:12Unfortunately, Mr. Reed's sperm motility is very low.
01:02:15It's currently not viable for fertilization.
01:02:17What?
01:02:18How is that even possible?
01:02:21What?
01:02:21No, that can't be, right?
01:02:23I'm perfectly healthy.
01:02:24My sperm is fine.
01:02:25Test me again.
01:02:25I understand this is very upsetting, but the numbers don't lie.
01:02:29I suggest I retest in two weeks.
01:02:31In the meantime, rest, nutrition, hydration.
01:02:39No, this doesn't make any sense.
01:02:42Hey, maybe you're just working too hard.
01:02:47You were there for me when this all started, and now it's my turn.
01:02:52We'll get through this together.
01:02:56Right, together.
01:02:57Should we plan on having this whole thing up by 2026?
01:03:15I mean, we have an additional 5,000 rooms on the left wing that we have.
01:03:19Apologies for being late.
01:03:21Oh.
01:03:27Everyone, this is Sophia Turner.
01:03:31Effective immediately, she will be taking over as head of the branding division.
01:03:44Oh, pleasure.
01:03:46I'm looking forward to working with you all.
01:03:47She walks in late, and she's already manager.
01:04:02What's her background?
01:04:03It's getting clear, 2.0.
01:04:05Shag her socials.
01:04:06CEO's acts.
01:04:08The only one he ever won public with.
01:04:10Daughter of some investment tycoon.
01:04:13Wonder why they broke up.
01:04:14So the queen's come back to take her throne, huh?
01:04:16I guess that means the temp wife position isn't getting renewed.
01:04:21Nice.
01:04:27They look like the perfect couple.
01:04:39Your contract marriage with Ethan.
01:04:43What?
01:04:43One month left?
01:04:44What's your point?
01:04:47Do you ever wonder if Ethan only married you to scare me back into his life?
01:04:56What?
01:04:57I twisted my ankle last night.
01:04:59Oh!
01:05:00He freaked.
01:05:02It was like his world was ending.
01:05:04He promised me he wouldn't let you get pregnant.
01:05:09And, oh, didn't your little fertility trip to the hospital fail?
01:05:15How did you know that?
01:05:18Because I gave him a glass of wine with a little something extra.
01:05:24And let's just say his swimmers are on strike.
01:05:28I watched him drink it and totally enjoy it.
01:05:33Something extra.
01:05:34Wait.
01:05:35Are you telling me you gave him a drug that kills sperm?
01:05:38And he knew about it?
01:05:41Obviously!
01:05:41Oh my god!
01:05:42You're so much more naive than I thought.
01:05:44Claire, babe, honey, Cinderella only becomes a princess in the fairy tales.
01:05:53And we ain't in one.
01:05:55So, why don't you go pack your things?
01:05:58Because Mrs. Reed, that's my name.
01:06:04Bye!
01:06:05I should trust Ethan.
01:06:17Sophia probably just settled up to mess with my head.
01:06:20One call to the doctor.
01:06:22I'll prove she's lying.
01:06:25Dr. Young?
01:06:26It's Claire.
01:06:27I just had a quick question.
01:06:31Ethan's spermotility came back low.
01:06:33Could that ever be caused by medication?
01:06:38Given Mr. Reed's health history, this result is unusual.
01:06:42It's quite possible he was exposed to something that impairs sperm function.
01:06:47Thank you, doctor.
01:06:52She wasn't lying.
01:07:03What are you doing to a down hero by yourself?
01:07:24Is everything okay?
01:07:28You kind of seem to let down lately.
01:07:30Just ask if there is an explanation.
01:07:45Ethan, the night you went over to Sophia's, did you drink anything?
01:07:53Yeah, wine.
01:07:55Why?
01:07:55So it's true?
01:07:59He drank that wine on purpose, fully aware?
01:08:03Maybe he never wanted to get me pregnant.
01:08:06Did you even know what that meant?
01:08:09Did you even know what that meant?
01:08:13Meant?
01:08:14What do you mean?
01:08:18Diffension.
01:08:18Why the hell is she asking me this?
01:08:26To me, it's just when I set boundaries with her, we're just friends now, right?
01:08:30Um, well, I mean, I guess, yeah, yeah, I know what that meant.
01:08:34It's all true.
01:08:35I was naive, thinking we could have a future.
01:08:39Sophia was right.
01:08:40Maybe it's time we start putting some distance between us.
01:08:44What is going on in that little head of yours?
01:08:54Nothing.
01:08:56I'm fine.
01:09:01Oh, um, so I'm flying out tomorrow with Sophia.
01:09:06She just landed a major contract, and so our hospital date's going to have to wait.
01:09:13But I'll be back as soon as I can.
01:09:17No need.
01:09:18Our contract's almost up anyway.
01:09:21Exactly.
01:09:22Finally it won't have that thing looming over our heads.
01:09:24Sophia, um, I'll just take this.
01:09:41I'll be right back.
01:09:44Okay.
01:09:45So that's it?
01:09:47You couldn't even wait for the contract to end?
01:09:49To be with her again?
01:09:52Fine.
01:09:52I don't see it in your way.
01:10:03Well, our three-month bet is hitting the final stretch.
01:10:09Belly's still flat.
01:10:10CDL was off on a trip with his ex.
01:10:12Oh, ouch.
01:10:13Are you feeling the heat yet?
01:10:15The whole clock is ticking.
01:10:17You lose, and we want your confession loud and clear.
01:10:21I'm a dried-up old hag.
01:10:26Don't break up the kibetty quite yet.
01:10:29I still have one month left.
01:10:31Oh, TikTok.
01:10:43Pleasure doing business with you.
01:10:44The pleasure is mine.
01:10:45Likewise.
01:10:50Boss.
01:10:51You cut things short and bumped your flight.
01:10:53Trying to get home to Mrs. Reed?
01:10:56You know it.
01:10:57She's ovulating tomorrow, so...
01:10:59Gonna take the first flight back, I can?
01:11:01And when she's expecting...
01:11:04Boom.
01:11:04I got a new surprise for her.
01:11:10Wow, that is so stunning.
01:11:15Mind if I take a closer look?
01:11:18Sure.
01:11:18Um, what are you doing?
01:11:32Um, sorry, it's so beautiful.
01:11:35I just...
01:11:36I needed a picture.
01:11:37I couldn't resist.
01:11:40Put it back in the box.
01:11:42Now?
01:11:42Yeah.
01:11:43Right now?
01:11:43Am I really going to lose to Ryder?
01:11:56Oh!
01:11:57Careful.
01:11:59You're going to flood the kitchen.
01:12:02So you finally found out that my brother's lying to you, haven't you?
01:12:09Mind your own business.
01:12:10He only married you for the inheritance.
01:12:23He was never going to actually get you pregnant.
01:12:25He's too far in with Sophia.
01:12:28Leave him, Claire.
01:12:29He's not worth it.
01:12:31And you're going to be my white knight.
01:12:33You're only talking to me because I'm a pawn in your little sibling game.
01:12:36Look, yeah, maybe at first, of course, I wanted to steal you away from him.
01:12:45But then, I saw your heart.
01:12:50I saw your generosity.
01:12:52I saw your work ethic.
01:12:54And I actually cared.
01:12:57Do you think I am dumb or something?
01:12:59Huh.
01:13:00You and Ethan really are brothers.
01:13:02Different jerks.
01:13:04Same old script.
01:13:06You want a kid, right?
01:13:10My papers.
01:13:11I have a perfect sperm count.
01:13:13I can help you.
01:13:15You don't have to put all your eggs into one basket.
01:13:20So you'd rather lose the bed
01:13:22and be the joke that everyone thought you were?
01:13:25Oh, God, I don't know.
01:13:39Chris would make the perfect donor, but...
01:13:42Why can't I feel at peace about it?
01:13:45I don't know.
01:13:45I don't know.
01:13:55Pretty, huh?
01:13:57Ethan proposed.
01:14:02He...
01:14:03He proposed to her.
01:14:08See, I told you.
01:14:10My brother, he only ever saw you as a business strategy.
01:14:13But me?
01:14:14I can take real care of you.
01:14:17No lies.
01:14:18No contracts.
01:14:21Right.
01:14:23I'll take with you.
01:14:25I will use your sperm.
01:14:28You got it!
01:14:31There's one thing I need to take care of first.
01:14:42You're so much more naive than I thought.
01:14:45He promised me he wouldn't let you get pregnant.
01:14:49Though I'm not just a friend,
01:14:52I'm Ethan's ex.
01:14:53It's pretty, huh?
01:14:57Ethan proposed.
01:15:07Ethan.
01:15:09This time,
01:15:10it's really over.
01:15:15Ethan.
01:15:17This time,
01:15:19you're finally gonna lose.
01:15:21Claire!
01:15:26Claire!
01:15:27Your turn.
01:15:34Doctor's waiting.
01:15:36If you need anything,
01:15:47just yell for me.
01:15:48Just yell for me.
01:15:52Miss Miller?
01:15:53This way.
01:15:54We're ready for the procedure.
01:16:01Knock yourself up, Jim.
01:16:02Claire.
01:16:08Where are you?
01:16:09Where are you?
01:16:15You really don't know how to pick up your phone.
01:16:21Donor agreement?
01:16:23What?
01:16:23Byron, to the hospital now.
01:16:29On it.
01:16:31On it.
01:16:38Miss Miller?
01:16:39Are you ready?
01:16:42Yes, doctor.
01:16:43I am.
01:16:44Like that.
01:17:00Relax, it'll be over soon.
01:17:21Okay.
01:17:28Check me, brother.
01:17:30Claire!
01:17:32Claire!
01:17:33You...
01:17:36Where is she?
01:17:38You're too late.
01:17:40She's already in there getting inseminated by my...
01:17:54Claire!
01:17:55Claire!
01:17:57Claire!
01:17:58Claire!
01:17:59Ethan!
01:18:00Calm down.
01:18:01This is a hospital.
01:18:03Let's go.
01:18:04Claire!
01:18:06Claire!
01:18:07Claire!
01:18:08Claire!
01:18:09Why did you accept Chris as your donor?
01:18:10Talk to me.
01:18:11Ethan!
01:18:12We are done.
01:18:13What?
01:18:14Claire!
01:18:15We had plans.
01:18:16I mean, aren't we in this together?
01:18:17We are done.
01:18:18What?
01:18:19Claire?
01:18:20We had plans.
01:18:21I mean, aren't we in this together?
01:18:24What changed?
01:18:25What changed?
01:18:26Heads!
01:18:27Off!
01:18:28Ethan!
01:18:29She is my girlfriend now.
01:18:32She's my wife!
01:18:34Oh!
01:18:36Maybe not for long.
01:18:38Maybe not for long.
01:18:39She signed the divorce papers.
01:18:41And soon, you will too.
01:18:43And the both of you will be nothing but strangers.
01:18:49What?
01:18:50No, you signed with...
01:18:52No.
01:18:53No, he's lying.
01:18:55Tell me he's lying, Claire.
01:18:57Still there?
01:19:00Sign them.
01:19:01Please.
01:19:17No.
01:19:18I won't sign without an explanation.
01:19:20Oh, come on, Ethan.
01:19:23She just wanted your perfect jeans.
01:19:26What?
01:19:27You thought she really loved you?
01:19:30No, I don't believe that.
01:19:33Claire, I need to hear it from you.
01:19:36You want an explanation?
01:19:38Fine.
01:19:40You married me for your inheritance.
01:19:42At the same time, you were messing around with Sophia, letting her drug you.
01:19:46I mean, a sperm-killing drug, Ethan, really?
01:19:49And you think I didn't know that you proposed to her?
01:19:52You are just pretending to care now because you're scared I'll find out and break the contract.
01:19:57Am I right?
01:19:59Sperm-killing?
01:20:00P-proposed?
01:20:01What the hell are you talking about, Claire?
01:20:03It's over, Ethan.
01:20:05I mean, don't you get it?
01:20:07She already signed the divorce papers, and Claire over here, she's carrying my child.
01:20:20Stop it!
01:20:21Don't hurt him.
01:20:22Chris has nothing to do with this.
01:20:24What?
01:20:25You're protecting him now?
01:20:28Are you okay?
01:20:30Look, Claire.
01:20:32I am not letting you leave me until you give me an explanation.
01:20:36What medication are you talking about?
01:20:38I've never taken anything like that in my life and proposed to Sophia.
01:20:41That's just insane.
01:20:42What the fuck?
01:20:44Literally, Claire, you are the only person I've ever wanted to marry.
01:20:54Didn't you already give that ring to Sophia?
01:20:58What?
01:20:59Uh, dramatic much?
01:21:01I literally just tried it on, like, for a second, like, for funsies.
01:21:06Okay, that is not what she said.
01:21:09She posted this online.
01:21:11Said you proposed to her.
01:21:12Paul said that ring custom-made for you.
01:21:14He wrapped up the business deal early just to catch the next flight back.
01:21:18Sophia, assistant, I'm trying it.
01:21:21That's all it was.
01:21:22Okay, get out of here, Byron.
01:21:25Please.
01:21:27Claire, you have to listen to me.
01:21:28I would never hurt you.
01:21:31Okay, but...
01:21:33What about the night you went over to Sophia's?
01:21:35What?
01:21:36You knew she drugged your drink and you drank it anyways.
01:21:40That's why your tests came back like they did.
01:21:43You never wanted a baby with me.
01:21:46Wait.
01:21:47What?
01:21:48You fucking drugged my drink?
01:21:54You fucking drugged me and set me up.
01:21:57I wonder if I couldn't try.
01:21:58Why would you do that?
01:22:00To be drugged is a strong word, but I could not bear to see you end up with Claire.
01:22:04That bitch doesn't deserve you.
01:22:10You are the bitch, Sophia.
01:22:12Manipulative and pathetic.
01:22:14Oh, you filthy little...
01:22:16Ethan, defend her all you want.
01:22:20Does not change the fact that she could be carrying Chris's child right now.
01:22:26And now the two of you, never gonna happen.
01:22:30That's right.
01:22:32She chose me.
01:22:34So stay out of my relationship.
01:22:36Chris.
01:22:37You knew about Sophia's plan, didn't you?
01:22:39Or have you two been scheming together this entire time?
01:22:45Does it matter?
01:22:47I mean, you're already carrying my child.
01:22:50And you signed the divorce papers.
01:22:52You and the whole lead empire is now mine.
01:22:55Oh, and best of all...
01:22:59I finally beat you, brother.
01:23:02Oh, and it feels so good!
01:23:04You pathetic asshole!
01:23:06I don't belong to you.
01:23:07You can go rot in hell.
01:23:09I'm bastard!
01:23:14Look, Claire, listen to me.
01:23:17I don't care whose child you're carrying or who gets the inheritance.
01:23:21The only thing I care about is that I get to spend the rest of my life with you.
01:23:31Wow!
01:23:32I mean, the crown prince groveling to play daddy to my son!
01:23:38Captain, Ethan, I can give you a child, okay?
01:23:42You don't want this bitch to be the one who...
01:23:43Shut up!
01:23:45Don't listen to that.
01:23:46Alright, you are the only thing that matters to me.
01:23:48That matters to me.
01:23:49No, Ethan.
01:23:51You should care.
01:23:52Because my future child, your inheritance...
01:23:58It's all yours.
01:24:00What?
01:24:05I never used Chris's sample.
01:24:08I couldn't go through with it.
01:24:09Oh, my God.
01:24:10Oh, my God.
01:24:14Oh, my God.
01:24:18Relax. It'll be over soon.
01:24:22No.
01:24:24I can't go through with it.
01:24:26Not until I know the truth.
01:24:28I'm sorry.
01:24:33I'm sorry.
01:24:35It's okay.
01:24:37Ms. Miller?
01:24:38Please don't book a procedure unless you're sure.
01:24:40Some of us value our time.
01:24:46Oh, my God.
01:24:48Claire, thank you so much for not giving up on us.
01:24:52You've got to be kidding me!
01:24:57Oh!
01:24:58Don't fucking touch her!
01:25:00Alright, this is fucked up even for you, Chris.
01:25:03Byron.
01:25:04Send his ass back to England.
01:25:05Make sure he never comes back.
01:25:07Yes, sir.
01:25:13You'll regret this, both of you.
01:25:16You'll never be happy!
01:25:17Wait!
01:25:20Thank God.
01:25:28Claire.
01:25:33Will you marry me?
01:25:36For real this time?
01:25:38Yes.
01:25:40Yes, I will.
01:25:47It's beautiful.
01:25:48No.
01:25:49It's beautiful.
01:25:51No.
01:25:59No.
01:26:01No.
01:26:03No.
01:26:05No.
01:26:07No.
01:26:09No.
01:26:11No.
01:26:13No.
01:26:15No.
01:26:17Mrs. Reed
01:26:47Are you still planning on having a baby, but in a clinical way?
01:26:51Oh, no. This time, I'm thrilled with you.
01:26:58Ugh.
01:27:12Well, I mean, it's okay for now. We still have time.
01:27:17I'm pregnant.
01:27:21We're having a baby.
01:27:23Yeah.
01:27:24We're having a baby.
01:27:31Yeah, look.
01:27:32Claire, Claire, you know I didn't mean all the stuff I said, right? It was a joke. All right?
01:27:48Right. Oh, come on. Hey, man. I bet it's a bet.
01:27:52Lucky for you, we're feeling merciful, so no full-friendful humiliation today. No one wants to see that anyway.
01:28:02But we did come up with a creative alternative.
01:28:06Put that on.
01:28:08And then say exactly what you promised.
01:28:11And make sure you say it loud enough for the entire office to hear.
01:28:14Oh, wait. Hurry up.
01:28:16I'm planning on having a baby.
01:28:18I slept my way to the top. I'm a little bitch boy.
01:28:20I live a reserve as the father of my child.
01:28:25Yes.
01:28:27Oh, that's good.
01:28:28It's really good.
01:28:29This is much better than the original plan.
01:28:30I feel so, too.
01:28:31Ugly.
01:28:32I'm a little bitch boy.
01:28:35The reserve is the father of my child.
01:28:38Yes.
01:28:40Oh, that's good.
01:28:41It's really good.
01:28:41This is much better than the original plan.
01:28:43I think so too.
01:28:44Ugly.
01:28:55Should we hang on a star?
01:28:56No.
01:29:02No.
