00:00:00They're low.
00:00:00Meaning your ovarian reserves are below average for your age.
00:00:05Um, will that make it hard to get pregnant?
00:00:09Not always.
00:00:11But if you want children, I would recommend you sometimes soon.
00:00:15Soon?
00:00:16How soon?
00:00:18Ideally within three months.
00:00:23Oh my god.
00:00:25Sweetheart, please, don't cry.
00:00:30Having you was the best thing I ever did.
00:00:33Mom.
00:00:35I just hope you'll have children of your own one day.
00:00:39After I'm gone.
00:00:40Yeah.
00:00:42I promise.
00:00:45I love you so much.
00:00:48I love you, sweetie.
00:00:50I have always wanted kids.
00:00:54Maybe it's time.
00:01:00I'm so sorry.
00:01:16I'm so sorry.
00:01:17I was, um, I think that's fine.
00:01:21Hey, I'm sorry.
00:01:22Didn't see that coming.
00:01:32Handsome guy.
00:01:33Unexpected kiss.
00:01:37Oh.
00:01:39Oh.
00:01:40Are you okay?
00:01:42Mm.
00:01:43Okay.
00:01:45Mm.
00:01:46Well, well.
00:01:53If it is my perfect innocent ex, what's the occasion?
00:01:57Are you pregnant too?
00:02:00I'm not as efficient as you, Ryder.
00:02:03We broke up, what, three months ago?
00:02:05And Candy is six months along.
00:02:08Impressive timeline.
00:02:08Oh, please.
00:02:11You couldn't keep a man, let alone raise a kid.
00:02:15Or are you here to raid the sperm bank and DIY a family?
00:02:22Hey, get that back.
00:02:25Dad.
00:02:26If you're not married by 30, even the trust and the confidence will serve your brother.
00:02:30It's final.
00:02:31Look, Mom, seriously, I...
00:02:33Low AMH, diminished ovarian reserve, recommended to start trying within three months.
00:02:44Oh, poor her, poor thing.
00:02:47Wow.
00:02:48Looks like the golden goose is running out of eggs.
00:02:50Oh, fuck, fuck.
00:02:51This is truly a plot twist.
00:02:54Ha, ha, ha.
00:02:55Yeah.
00:02:56Oh.
00:03:01Oh.
00:03:01Oh.
00:03:01Oh.
00:03:03I'm really worried about you, Claire.
00:03:06I mean, a girl with your history?
00:03:08You think you're going to be able to snag a sperm donor before your eggs are all dried up?
00:03:12You're basically a clearance rack.
00:03:14Expired, free, and still no takers.
00:03:18No takers.
00:03:20You can rest assured.
00:03:22I already have a boyfriend.
00:03:25Yeah.
00:03:27MIT, 6'2, IQ off the charts, trust fund air, practically built for greatness.
00:03:33Way better than loser rider.
00:03:38Boyfriend.
00:03:39Ugh.
00:03:40Yeah.
00:03:41Sure, Claire.
00:03:42Uh, let me guess.
00:03:44He lives in the Canadian wilderness?
00:03:45Or some bullshit like that?
00:03:48Ha, ha, ha.
00:03:49And the best thing of all, he has the one thing you can't die.
00:03:53Oh.
00:03:54Tainous.
00:03:56Funny.
00:03:57You're funny.
00:03:58How about we make a bet?
00:04:00If you're not pregnant within, say, three months, you have to admit the truth.
00:04:05You were just a dried up old woman.
00:04:08You have to admit it out loud and to the public.
00:04:11Oh, baby, you're bad.
00:04:14I'll find him for you.
00:04:17Oh.
00:04:18And if I win, you strip through the office naked, screaming that you are nothing but a little
00:04:24slimy suck-up bitch boy.
00:04:29Deal.
00:04:30Game on, Miss Nobody Wants You.
00:04:33Nobody wants you.
00:04:35Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:04:36Oh, my God.
00:04:39What the fuck did I just do?
00:04:42Even the sperm banks are booked six months out, and I only have three.
00:04:47Where the hell am I going to find the perfect gene donor boyfriend?
00:04:50Oh, God, someone help me.
00:04:52Now, that's interesting.
00:04:57You know, I think I did help with that.
00:05:01Ethan Reed, MIT, PhD, IQ 200, that's my medical report.
00:05:16No genetic disorders, clean family history.
00:05:18I take every box on your donor wish list.
00:05:24Okay.
00:05:25What's the catch?
00:05:26You marry me, contractually, three months, just long enough to shut my family up and
00:05:33lock in my inheritance.
00:05:34And in return, you get my sperm.
00:05:38And we get you pregnant just in time to win your little bet.
00:05:41That's really all you want?
00:05:43A paper marriage?
00:05:45Look, Claire, I'm not looking for love.
00:05:48I'm looking for efficiency.
00:05:49Honestly, this might be the fastest route to motherhood.
00:06:00All right.
00:06:01Deal.
00:06:11Boss.
00:06:13Renuptial agreement.
00:06:14Thanks.
00:06:22Okay.
00:06:24Three rounds of artificial insemination.
00:06:26Temporary cohabitation to keep up party appearances.
00:06:30Contract terminates after three months.
00:06:34I'd like to add one more turn.
00:06:35Oh.
00:06:36Financial independence.
00:06:38I don't want anyone thinking I'm some gold digger.
00:06:43Fair enough.
00:06:43If that's what you want, I'm in.
00:06:47Great.
00:06:48Great.
00:06:55Lovely.
00:06:56Excuse me, Mr. Reed.
00:06:58Are you ready to head into the collection room for your specimen?
00:07:04Sure.
00:07:06Good luck.
00:07:12Mrs. Reed.
00:07:13Would you like to go in with him?
00:07:15Show him a little support.
00:07:17Oh, no.
00:07:18I...
00:07:18Oh, no.
00:07:20Excuse me.
00:07:21I...
00:07:21Oh.
00:07:23Oh, no.
00:07:24Um...
00:07:24Excuse me.
00:07:25I...
00:07:25Uh...
00:07:26Hey.
00:07:33Need any, uh...
00:07:35Help?
00:07:36With that?
00:07:37Oh.
00:07:37Oh.
00:07:38And, um...
00:07:40How, pray tell, do you plan on helping me?
00:07:43No, I...
00:07:44Um...
00:07:44That's right.
00:07:45Um...
00:07:46Um...
00:07:46No, I did not mean that I was gonna...
00:08:00Oh, my God.
00:08:05Shut up.
00:08:05Shut up.
00:08:05Shut up.
00:08:06Please.
00:08:06How do I turn this off?
00:08:08Um...
00:08:08Claire?
00:08:08Shut up.
00:08:09Shut up.
00:08:10How do I make this stop?
00:08:12This is so crazy.
00:08:14Um...
00:08:15Like that.
00:08:25Um, you should probably get started.
00:08:28I probably should.
00:08:30Yeah.
00:08:30I'm gonna...
00:08:31I'm gonna wait outside.
00:08:32You might guess.
00:08:33Okay.
00:08:34Bye.
00:08:35Bye.
00:08:35Bye.
00:08:35Bye.
00:08:35Bye.
00:08:35Bye.
00:08:38Bye.
00:08:40Adorable.
00:08:51Enjoying yourself?
00:08:53Doctor.
00:08:54Thank you, Mr. Reed.
00:08:55Of course.
00:08:56We'll begin shortly.
00:08:57You can wait outside.
00:08:58Okay.
00:09:00If you need anything, just...
00:09:02Yell for me.
00:09:03Yeah.
00:09:08Boss, you married somewhere out of the blue?
00:09:16Feels a little impulsive.
00:09:18Even for you.
00:09:20No.
00:09:21It's not impulsive.
00:09:22Actually, she's...
00:09:24I don't know.
00:09:25She's interesting.
00:09:30Anyways, what'd you find?
00:09:32Mrs. Reed has been working as a designer at NOAA.
00:09:35Her ex cheated on her with his boss, Candy Ashford.
00:09:40Miss Ashford's been making her life hell ever since.
00:09:44Just last week, she killed Mrs. Reed's proposal.
00:09:47Said it wasn't feminine enough.
00:09:50Bye, Nova.
00:09:53Make Claire the new design director.
00:09:56Seriously?
00:09:57Yeah.
00:09:58Look, our marriage may have a deadline.
00:10:01But she's still my wife.
00:10:04Anyone mistreating my wife is mistreating me.
00:10:07She dead, sir.
00:10:10Now, go get the car ready.
00:10:11We have to go meet Mom.
00:10:13Count him.
00:10:21Hello?
00:10:22Mr. Reed, the procedure went smoothly.
00:10:25We'll know in four weeks if it was successful.
00:10:27Oh, wonderful.
00:10:31Thank you so much, Mr. Reed.
00:10:37I might actually get to be a mom now.
00:10:40Of course.
00:10:42But, um...
00:10:44You know, we are married now.
00:10:46You are my wife.
00:10:49Call me Ethan.
00:10:50Fake wife.
00:10:53Remember?
00:10:55Right.
00:10:56So, Ethan, you've done your part.
00:11:02When do I get to do mine?
00:11:03Right now.
00:11:05We're about to go meet my mother.
00:11:08Okay.
00:11:13Mother.
00:11:15This is...
00:11:16My wife.
00:11:18Claire.
00:11:18Claire.
00:11:19My mother.
00:11:20Nora.
00:11:20Nora.
00:11:20Nora, it's so lovely to meet you.
00:11:24Hi.
00:11:31Oh, sweetie.
00:11:33I've been looking forward to this for so long.
00:11:36And you rascal.
00:11:38This is why you kept dodging all my matchmaking attempts.
00:11:41Uh, yeah, I'll explain that eventually.
00:11:47Of course.
00:11:48I'll never win your wedding night.
00:11:51Come, Byron.
00:11:53They have a mission.
00:11:54Make me a grandchild.
00:11:57Don't have too much fun.
00:12:00Okay.
00:12:07It's my mother.
00:12:08Yeah.
00:12:09Yeah.
00:12:11Uh, sorry for grabbing here without having a chance to pack.
00:12:27This should be fine.
00:12:29Thanks.
00:12:31I'm sure.
00:12:34I'll go and make some new day.
00:12:38Make yourself home.
00:12:41Oh, my God.
00:12:48And his cologne is perfect.
00:12:51I mean, my knees are actually weak.
00:12:54Too bad it's just temporary.
00:12:55Three months and that is it.
00:12:58God.
00:12:59Hit a grip.
00:12:59What am I doing?
00:13:03Okay.
00:13:04What are you making?
00:13:04Okay.
00:13:05What are you making?
00:13:05Okay.
00:13:05What are you making?
00:13:05Okay.
00:13:05What are you making?
00:13:09I'm making some things.
00:13:23Sure.
00:13:28Oh, you're gone.
00:13:29No, no, no.
00:13:29I just got promoted.
00:13:31Design director.
00:13:32Should I start tomorrow?
00:13:32Oh, my God.
00:13:33Oh, shit.
00:13:37I am so sorry.
00:13:38I did not do that.
00:13:38No, no, no.
00:13:39It's fine.
00:13:40It really isn't.
00:13:43Oh, Claire.
00:13:44Yeah?
00:13:46Claire, be careful, please.
00:13:47No, it's fine.
00:13:48There's just a huge thing.
00:13:49No, Claire.
00:13:50You don't under...
00:13:50Oh.
00:13:51Oh.
00:13:52Oh.
00:13:53Oh.
00:13:53Oh.
00:13:53Oh.
00:13:54Oh.
00:13:54Careful, Claire.
00:14:02You are playing with fire.
00:14:04Is this right?
00:14:07Holy shit.
00:14:08Yep.
00:14:09Definitely hard.
00:14:11And definitely huge.
00:14:13Oh, jeez.
00:14:14I'm...
00:14:14I, um...
00:14:15No, it's not really.
00:14:16Okay.
00:14:23Okay.
00:14:24That body should come with a warning label.
00:14:26Okay.
00:14:26That body should come with a warning label.
00:14:46You made this mess.
00:14:56You clean it up.
00:14:58Uh, where are you going?
00:15:01Oh, I'm just...
00:15:03I'm just gonna go take a cold shower.
00:15:05You know, put out the...
00:15:07I hear you starting.
00:15:08If I'm the new design director, candy butters, you're packing up her desk.
00:15:29I can't wait.
00:15:30Yeah.
00:15:32What's going on here?
00:15:34Waiting for the new CEO, obviously.
00:15:36Nova got bowed out yesterday.
00:15:39Word is this rich, young, and single.
00:15:42I call dips.
00:15:44Oh, Claire.
00:15:45Don't forget your perfect jean baby bat with Ryder.
00:15:50Maybe.
00:15:50You could try your luck with the new CEO.
00:15:52Lots of old money there.
00:15:55With a face like that, land the CEO?
00:15:58Please.
00:15:59What are you gonna do?
00:15:59Sneak into his bed and turkey base yourself?
00:16:01I don't need to trap anyone, Ryder.
00:16:07Unlike you, I offer value all on my own.
00:16:11Oh, please.
00:16:12You have been so heartbroken, you can't even manage a rebound.
00:16:17What, are you expecting?
00:16:17Immaculate conception?
00:16:20I don't need divine conception.
00:16:22And for all you know, I'm already pregnant.
00:16:24Welcome to Nova, Mr. Reed.
00:16:45Welcome to Nova, Mr. Reed.
00:16:48Is it?
00:16:50Uh, uh, welcome, sir.
00:16:53Claire, I'm Claire, from design.
00:16:58Hmm.
00:17:07Claire.
00:17:13Design director.
00:17:16Effective immediately.
00:17:18Okay.
00:17:23Yes, sir.
00:17:26Okay, what?
00:17:28She is barely qualified, and I have been running this program for two years.
00:17:33If she is director, then who am I?
00:17:38Support staff.
00:17:38Come on, that is blatant favoritism.
00:17:44Byron, I've done some research on Nova before acquiring it.
00:17:48This sketch, created by Miss Miller herself,
00:17:53has had the highest performing markers a year straight.
00:17:57If anything, I'd say this promotion is long overdue.
00:18:00So, how do you know the new CEO?
00:18:14I, I don't, don't lie.
00:18:18He comes and promotes you first thing, and you don't know him?
00:18:21Come on, babe.
00:18:25The new guy's obviously clueless.
00:18:27That's why he picked her.
00:18:29No real skill.
00:18:32It won't lie.
00:18:33Ethan.
00:18:50Claire.
00:18:53Why did you buy Nova, and make me the director?
00:18:58Well, because you're my wife.
00:19:00And more importantly, you're talented.
00:19:06Look, Claire, I'm not going to waste that.
00:19:09But, everyone's going to think I'm just here because of you.
00:19:14Maybe, but we're connected nonetheless.
00:19:19Claire, contract or not, you are the future mother of my child.
00:19:23And the future mother of my child will not be disrespected.
00:19:26So, I'll tell everyone today and clear the air.
00:19:29No.
00:19:31Wait, Ethan, you can't go public.
00:19:34Please.
00:19:36I don't want to be the woman who's known for using your sperm to climb the ladder.
00:19:43Seen by home.
00:19:44Ryder?
00:19:45Candy?
00:19:46Anyone.
00:19:47You're the CEO, Ethan.
00:19:49I'm just, I'm just someone under contract.
00:19:52And in three months, it's all over.
00:19:58Isn't it?
00:20:02All right.
00:20:04It's your choice.
00:20:06Okay.
00:20:06Okay.
00:20:06Yeah, Byron, what is with that woman?
00:20:18I mean, any sane person would kill me, Mrs. Reed, right?
00:20:22She acts like it's a life sentence.
00:20:24That must be what makes her so interesting.
00:20:30Hmm.
00:20:32Maybe.
00:20:33Maybe.
00:20:33Long meeting with the CEO.
00:20:50I guess that means we can add him to your perfect gene list.
00:20:54Hmm.
00:20:54Someone seems desperate.
00:20:57What?
00:20:59Are you nervous?
00:21:00Afraid to lose the back?
00:21:03Mind your own business, Ryder.
00:21:10Mind your own business, Ryder.
00:21:11Okay.
00:21:24I want me back.
00:21:44Want to see the sugar daddy now?
00:21:46Ever since I saw her getting that may back, nothing.
00:21:57I was excited again.
00:21:59Was it all just for show?
00:22:00Hmm.
00:22:00Stale.
00:22:02Mr. Reed says you've all been working hard.
00:22:04Lunch is on him.
00:22:05Design team, and you've got your own special menu.
00:22:12Well, I said you're doing wonderful.
00:22:14You bring that to you.
00:22:46Tastes fine to me.
00:22:51Unless you're pregnant or something.
00:22:54You got a secret boyfriend hiding somewhere?
00:22:56Please, um, I'm just not feeling great.
00:23:13I don't care.
00:23:15I'm going to go to the bathroom.
00:23:16Oh.
00:23:17You're great.
00:23:18Claire.
00:23:19Oh.
00:23:19Oh.
00:23:20Could she really be pregnant?
00:23:23What the hell?
00:23:37This is the lady's room.
00:23:38No way.
00:23:38Are you seriously pregnant?
00:23:40Back off.
00:23:41That is none of your business.
00:23:42It is if your concerns are bad.
00:23:44Now, spill.
00:23:44Who's the Maybach guy?
00:23:46Your sperm donor?
00:23:47She said back off.
00:23:49She said back off.
00:23:56You said back off.
00:23:58She's not really pregnant, is she?
00:24:27No, I don't see why that would be any concern of yours.
00:24:30Well, hey, I'm just looking out for her, boss.
00:24:32I mean, after all, she used to be my girlfriend.
00:24:38Guess her eggs really are busted, aren't they?
00:24:40Or maybe that perfect gene donor of yours, shooting blanks.
00:24:44I'll tell you what, I'll help you out for old time's sake.
00:24:47Spend one night with me in the bone.
00:24:50You are disgusting!
00:24:57Oh, you bitch.
00:25:00Touch her, and I swear it'll be the last thing you ever do.
00:25:07Fuck.
00:25:09What the fuck?
00:25:11Sorry, it's just a joke.
00:25:13My accent.
00:25:14You're awfully protective of your employee.
00:25:16Something I should know about.
00:25:18What happens between Claire and me?
00:25:22It's none of your goddamn business.
00:25:24So, don't get a damn mouth shut if you want to keep your job.
00:25:28Okay?
00:25:29Okay.
00:25:44Claire?
00:25:46Claire?
00:25:47Hey?
00:25:51I'm sorry.
00:25:52Here.
00:25:59You've been under a lot of stress, which can reduce ovarian function.
00:26:03Probably why conception hasn't happened.
00:26:05You need rest, moderate exercise, and a better mood before the next artificial insemination.
00:26:11So it's my fault.
00:26:12Hey, no, no, no.
00:26:14No, none of this is your fault.
00:26:18All right, we still have time, and...
00:26:29We're in this together, okay?
00:26:36Light movement helps.
00:26:38Walks, swimming, yoga, anything to keep your brain slow and present.
00:26:46You know, I bet you're pretty bomb at yoga.
00:26:50You're the shot.
00:26:52Great.
00:26:53Ladies, raise your hands slowly.
00:27:00Gentlemen, support your partners.
00:27:03Breathe together.
00:27:12That was a race.
00:27:15Don't worry, I'm not going to try anything.
00:27:18Just relax.
00:27:20Now, gently lean back.
00:27:25Your back rests against your partner's chest.
00:27:28And feel their support.
00:27:30Feel the connection.
00:27:31Their grounding presence.
00:27:34It's okay.
00:27:36Trust me.
00:27:36You know, you're kind of the assistant for what you're saying.
00:27:58Hmm.
00:27:59Hmm.
00:28:00Hmm.
00:28:00Hmm.
00:28:00Hmm.
00:28:00Hmm.
00:28:01Hmm.
00:28:01Hmm.
00:28:01Hmm.
00:28:02Hmm.
00:28:02Hmm.
00:28:03Hmm.
00:28:03Hmm.
00:28:03Hmm.
00:28:04Hmm.
00:28:04Hmm.
00:28:05Hmm.
00:28:05Now take your partner in your arms and slowly lean back together.
00:28:15Feel that stretch on your spine and breathe through it.
00:28:21Ready?
00:28:35Yeah.
00:28:40Nice.
00:28:42You're good.
00:28:44Yeah.
00:28:46Whoa!
00:28:48Oh my god, I'm so sorry that that was an accident.
00:28:54Lucky me.
00:28:56He's just a contract partner.
00:28:58So why the hell is my heart doing backflips?
00:29:15Um...
00:29:17Is that carrot your mortal enemy because you've turned it into confetti?
00:29:21Hm.
00:29:22You tried perfectly slicing for prenatal nutrition.
00:29:25I'm a novice under pressure, okay?
00:29:27You're actually trying to ace a pregnancy diet?
00:29:30That's...oddly endearing.
00:29:34Okay.
00:29:35Let me take over before that carrot presses charges.
00:29:42Uh-uh.
00:29:43Not a chance.
00:29:44Uh-uh.
00:29:45Uh-uh.
00:29:46Uh-uh.
00:29:47Uh-uh.
00:29:48Huh.
00:29:49Your job is to sit there and murder me.
00:29:53All right?
00:29:54We supervise.
00:29:55I stress.
00:29:57Okay.
00:29:58Okay.
00:30:05What?
00:30:06Wait, did you cut yourself?
00:30:07No, it's just a scratch.
00:30:09Here.
00:30:10Let me see.
00:30:11There.
00:30:12Better?
00:30:13Well, this part wasn't in the contract, but...
00:30:15Hell, I don't want her to stop.
00:30:17You're gonna go.
00:30:18Who's gonna?
00:30:19Woo-hoo.
00:30:20You're gonna go.
00:30:22And you're gonna go.
00:30:23I don't want her to stop.
00:30:27You're gonna go.
00:30:30You're gonna go.
00:30:32Better?
00:30:33Have you gotten a smart?
00:30:35Well, this part wasn't in the contract, but...
00:30:37Hell...
00:30:38I don't want her to stop.
00:30:40I don't want her to stop.
00:30:42I hope I'm not patching the honeymoon.
00:30:52Chris!
00:30:54What?
00:30:55What, your baby brother needs an appointment to come home now?
00:31:04And who is this beautiful mystery?
00:31:09Hi, I'm Claire.
00:31:10Chris.
00:31:11Ethan's younger brother.
00:31:12She's back from London.
00:31:13Okay.
00:31:14She's my wife.
00:31:15Now, feel free to make yourself at home, but don't overstay your book.
00:31:16Perfect.
00:31:17The family's all here.
00:31:18So, Chris, I was hoping that you can chat with Ethan at NOVA to learn the ropes you're starting
00:31:33tomorrow.
00:31:34What?
00:31:35Come on, you guys.
00:31:37You are both adults.
00:31:38You're both adults.
00:31:39You've got to stop this sibling war.
00:31:41Come on, big brother.
00:31:42I made just a little family favor.
00:31:45You own the whole empire now.
00:31:48Fine.
00:31:49But don't be late.
00:31:50Oh, and Claire.
00:31:51I can't wait to work with you.
00:31:52Hey.
00:31:53It's not cool.
00:31:54Then we will.
00:31:55Look.
00:31:56Claire, listen to me.
00:31:57Claire, listen to me.
00:31:58My brother, he's always been so competitive.
00:32:00I mean, anything I have, he wants.
00:32:01And I know he's, he's on here by accident.
00:32:02So, please.
00:32:03Please.
00:32:04Please.
00:32:05Please.
00:32:06Please.
00:32:07Please.
00:32:08Please.
00:32:09Please.
00:32:10Please.
00:32:11Please.
00:32:12Please.
00:32:13Promise me that you'll stay away from him.
00:32:28Yeah.
00:32:29Yeah.
00:32:30Of course.
00:32:40You are his opposite to this man.
00:32:42You're right. They're in a three-month contract marriage.
00:32:58Ethan tries to keep it under wraps, but I found the cap surveillance footage.
00:33:03Send it your way.
00:33:05Received.
00:33:07Oh, Ethan.
00:33:09You've always been the crown prince.
00:33:11Yes, the heir. The one with the spotlight on him.
00:33:16But me, I was born in despair.
00:33:18So, big bro, once again, you have something that I don't...
00:33:24Let's see who wins this round.
00:33:34Everybody, this is Chris.
00:33:38Oh, God.
00:33:41The newest member of the design team.
00:33:43Hello, colleagues.
00:33:45I cannot wait to learn from each other.
00:33:49Chris is hot.
00:33:51He is CEO's younger brother.
00:33:53A total golden boy.
00:33:55And a walking HR violation.
00:33:58If I can't land the CEO, the younger Mr. Reid is still a pretty smooth deal.
00:34:04Well, um...
00:34:06Good luck with that.
00:34:07Shh.
00:34:10Oh, and Claire, I believe I'll be reporting to you.
00:34:15I think I'll be in great hands.
00:34:17Uh...
00:34:19Uh...
00:34:23Uh...
00:34:24Yeah.
00:34:26Welcome aboard, Chris.
00:34:30She's more than just a deal to you, isn't she?
00:34:33Well, you never did like Sharon.
00:34:36Okay.
00:34:41Okay.
00:34:45Yes, the Wilson sketches are approved.
00:34:47You can go ahead and send those over to the account this afternoon.
00:34:51You strike me as an Americana kind of girl.
00:34:57Thanks.
00:34:58You know, I think we should get lunch sometime.
00:35:01Just us together.
00:35:02It could be fine.
00:35:05My brother has always been so competitive.
00:35:08I mean, anything I have, he wants.
00:35:10So please...
00:35:12Promise me that you'll stay away from him.
00:35:17Sorry.
00:35:18I just don't think I'll have time today.
00:35:21You're not scared of me already, are you, Claire?
00:35:24I mean, come on.
00:35:25I'm harmless.
00:35:26I don't bite.
00:35:27Of course not.
00:35:29I just don't think...
00:35:30Relax.
00:35:32I know your marriage to my brother is fake.
00:35:38How?
00:35:39How do you know that?
00:35:42No one keeps secrets from me, Claire.
00:35:45Although, I am a little curious about the kind of woman that suddenly gets my work with Holly Brother to tie the knot.
00:35:52Even if it is a victim.
00:35:55What do you want?
00:35:58Lunch.
00:35:59Conversation.
00:35:59If I say no, and he spills the truth, Ethan loses everything.
00:36:05And if I say yes, fine.
00:36:10Just lunch.
00:36:11Great.
00:36:12I will see you downstairs.
00:36:15Claire.
00:36:16I'll be right there.
00:36:16I'll be right there.
00:36:17She really does mean something to you.
00:36:32Which means, place yourself.
00:36:34Claire, what did my brother say to you?
00:36:44Nothing.
00:36:46Just...
00:36:46Work stuff.
00:36:48Oh, okay.
00:36:53Good.
00:36:54Claire, please, just stay away from him.
00:36:58My brother has spent his entire life trying to ruin everything that I have.
00:37:02But I won't let him ruin this.
00:37:09Should I tell him about Chris asking me to lunch?
00:37:12Ethan, what?
00:37:16Hey, boss.
00:37:17Meeting's about to start.
00:37:20Okay, I'll be right there.
00:37:22All right, you gotta go.
00:37:23Um...
00:37:23I'll talk to you after, okay?
00:37:28One meet, man.
00:37:29I can handle it.
00:37:30Ethan's so busy.
00:37:31Chris?
00:37:54It's the same car as last time.
00:38:00Wait, it's...
00:38:01Is Chris the perfect jean guy?
00:38:05After you.
00:38:06Uh...
00:38:07Isn't this Ethan's car?
00:38:09It is.
00:38:11No fucking...
00:38:13No fucking way.
00:38:16She actually landed on Rich Golden Boy.
00:38:20Problem.
00:38:24Are you worried that your fake hubby will catch you with your wrong brother?
00:38:29What are you fucking about?
00:38:31Just kidding.
00:38:39We're just grabbing lunch, Mr. Miller.
00:38:40No wonder she got director.
00:38:56Ann had the guts to make a bet with me?
00:39:00It's because you were all cozy with the CEO's brother.
00:39:03You know what?
00:39:06Time to take down the office sweetheart.
00:39:10There it is.
00:39:11There it is.
00:39:12Proof.
00:39:12Claire is sleeping with the CEO's brother.
00:39:28No wonder she jumped the ranks.
00:39:30No wonder she jumped the ranks.
00:39:33CEO in the boardroom, brother in the bedroom.
00:39:36Well, um...
00:39:39I just bought her streets.
00:39:43Well, um, boss?

00:45:51Congratulations, Mrs. Reed. Your hormone levels are back to normal. You're cleared for insemination next week.
00:46:11Oh my god. Thank you so much, Doctor.
00:46:14And? Ethan, we're good to go. We can finally try again next week.
00:46:22Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god.
00:46:29Claire, I'm so sorry I ever met you.
00:46:33Good morning, Nova's very own sperm queen. How's the donor search going? Is the CEO's little brother premium enough for you?
00:46:48What is your problem, Ryder?
00:46:50I caught you cozying up to Chris Reed.
00:46:54I'm curious to see how Ethan's going to react when he finds out you've been playing both brothers.
00:47:02You don't know what you're talking about.
00:47:10And what exactly am I looking at? Two co-workers showing up to the office?
00:47:14No wonder you never deliver anything good. You're too busy playing paparazzi all day.
00:47:18Cut the crap, Claire. You strut around here like you earned that title.
00:47:22You think you're better than the rest of us, but guess what?
00:47:24You are nothing but an incubator with broken hearts.
00:47:28Does Chris even know that your eggs are defective?
00:47:33You say one more word and I will sue you for defamation.
00:47:40You filthy bitch.
00:47:48Try me and you're done.
00:47:54Claire.
00:47:55Hey.
00:47:56Hey.
00:47:58Are you okay?
00:47:59Hi.
00:48:00Boss, I'm telling you the truth.
00:48:02Claire was only getting close to Chris because of a bet, okay?
00:48:05She's not this sweet, innocent angel.
00:48:07She is just playing him.
00:48:08One more slanderous word towards Claire and you're fired.
00:48:12For fuck's sake.
00:48:13She's just an employee. Why are you protecting her like this?
00:48:16Because.
00:48:16Because he is my future girlfriend's boss.
00:48:23Oh, and Claire, I got these gorgeous flowers for you.
00:48:30Sweetie, are you okay?
00:48:33No.
00:48:37You don't know what the fuck you're doing, Chris.
00:48:40I do.
00:48:41I'm trying to hurt Claire.
00:48:43Keep your filthy hands off her.
00:48:57She's a married woman.
00:49:00Wait, what?
00:49:02Claire is married?
00:49:03To who?
00:49:04Careful, big bro.
00:49:18I mean, you should really, really think this through.
00:49:22Once the truth gets out, well, we both know how mom's temper is.
00:49:26If 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?
00:49:41How is that even legal?
00:49:44Whoa.
00:49:45I can't believe you actually did it.
00:49:47You chose love over legacy.
00:49:49I mean, I am impressed.
00:49:52But you missed out the juicy bit.
00:49:56Why don't you tell everyone that your marriage is just a three-month contract?
00:50:01A business proposition.
00:50:03I warned you to stay the fuck out of our relationship, Chris.
00:50:10Cool.
00:50:11Off.
00:50:12Big bro.
00:50:15Your relationship has an expiration date.
00:50:17And once it's over, she'll be mine.
00:50:20Yeah.
00:50:21Funny.
00:50:21Because I won't let you get close enough to steal her from me.
00:50:35That's enough!
00:50:36Both of you, stop!
00:50:38Stop it!
00:50:40Wait, Claire!
00:50:46Wait, Claire!
00:50:46Both of Reed brothers are fighting over Claire.
00:50:53What has she got that we don't?
00:50:55Her bedroom skills, of course.
00:50:57It's probably how she earned my promotion.
00:51:00How did I not see this sooner?
00:51:01She is sleeping her way to the top.
00:51:03Of course, what?
00:51:04Shut your mouth!
00:51:07If word of this gets out, I will end you.
00:51:12Claire.
00:51:13Claire.
00:51:13Let go of me.
00:51:15I'm sorry.
00:51:17I screwed up.
00:51:18I was impulsive.
00:51:19I didn't stop to think about how you might feel going public with our relationship.
00:51:23Stay fit, Ethan.
00:51:25I am done.
00:51:26I can't do this anymore.
00:51:29No, no, please.
00:51:30Please don't go.
00:51:31I only did it because I was scared of losing you to Chris.
00:51:35And that's why I rushed to tell everybody that you're my wife.
00:51:39What about the consequences?
00:51:41If your mother finds out we're in a fake relationship, you'll lose everything.
00:51:44And Chris and I are not a thing.
00:51:47Okay?
00:51:48Okay?
00:51:56Listen to me.
00:51:57Right before you came into my life, all I cared about was my work and my inheritance.
00:52:02But I need you to know that as long as you're here with me, nothing else matters.
00:52:12Ethan.
00:52:13No.
00:52:14Don't worry.
00:52:16All right.
00:52:16I'm here with you.
00:52:20Whatever comes our way, we'll face it together.
00:52:23Okay?
00:52:23Okay.
00:52:23Sophia, if you don't hop on a plane right now, your ex, he might find us happily ever after somewhere else.
00:52:49What?
00:52:51That workaholic.
00:52:53I'm falling for someone.
00:52:56No, no.
00:52:57Not possible.
00:53:08Book me the next flight to New York.
00:53:10I don't care who she is.
00:53:19Ethan Reed is not.
00:53:27Your cooking's actually gotten a lot better.
00:53:31Okay.
00:53:31Doctor, just confirmed.
00:53:40You're good to go.
00:53:42I'll have a queen next time.
00:53:47Perfect.
00:53:48We'll leave first thing in the morning.
00:53:50Go where?
00:53:51Exactly.
00:53:52Exactly.
00:53:52SofÃa?
00:54:08You're back?
00:54:10Oh, Ethan.
00:54:12I miss you so much.
00:54:14Oh.
00:54:15Well, Claire, this is Sophia, an old friend.
00:54:29Sophia, this is my wife.
00:54:32Ceci.
00:54:34Pleasure.
00:54:36Though I'm not just friend.
00:54:41I'm Ethan's ex.
00:54:45I think we broke up two years ago.
00:54:47It's nothing.
00:54:48We were so in love back then.
00:54:51I thought you'd wait.
00:54:52You know, if Chris hadn't told me, I'd still believe you were mine.
00:54:56If I remember correctly, you left to pursue a career halfway across the world.
00:55:01I thought that's what you wanted.
00:55:06Well, actually, she's my pick for brand manager.
00:55:11That won't be a problem to you, right, brother?
00:55:15What's the matter, Ethan?
00:55:17You don't want me back?
00:55:19Well, I'm afraid that decision's not entirely up to me.
00:55:22That's up to the board to decide.
00:55:24No.
00:55:26It's funny.
00:55:27What a coincidence.
00:55:29I just so happen to have their signatures, right?
00:55:32Oh.
00:55:33Oh.
00:55:33Oh.
00:55:33Oh.
00:55:33Oh.
00:55:33Oh.
00:55:33Oh.
00:55:34Oh.
00:55:34Oh.
00:55:35Oh.
00:55:35Oh.
00:55:35Oh.
00:55:37Oh.
00:55:37Oh.
00:55:37Oh.
00:55:38Oh.
00:55:38Oh.
00:55:39Oh.
00:55:39Oh.
00:55:39Oh.
00:55:39Oh.
00:55:40Oh.
00:55:40Oh.
00:55:40Oh.
00:55:41Oh.
00:55:41Oh.
00:55:41Oh.
00:55:41Oh.
00:55:42Oh.
00:55:42Oh.
00:55:42Oh.
00:55:43Oh.
00:55:43Oh.
00:55:43Oh.
00:55:43Oh.
00:55:43Oh.
00:55:43Oh.
00:55:45Well, if that's what the board wants, fine.
00:55:50We'll see if you're up to the task.
00:56:05Why did you tell me about Ethan and Claire?
00:56:08What's your angle?
00:56:09I want Claire, and you want Ethan.
00:56:12We can help each other out.
00:56:13Help each other how?
00:56:15You, you, you can blow up their little fairy tale, and me, we'll carve your path straight
00:56:21to Ethan.
00:56:23Everyone wins.
00:56:25Let the games begin.
00:56:30Hey.
00:56:31What are you doing?
00:56:33Look, Claire, I'm, I'm sorry if the night upset you, but would it be bad if I was a little
00:56:41glad if it did?
00:56:42I'm glad if it did.
00:56:43I'm glad if it did.
00:56:44Because that would mean that you were jealous.
00:56:45I'm jealous.
00:56:46I'm jealous.
00:56:47I'm jealous and you do care.
00:56:48I'm jealous.
00:56:49I'm jealous.
00:56:50You do care.
00:56:51Don't flatter yourself.
00:56:52She's from my past all right but you are my wife.
00:57:06And, once you're finally pregnant, we can make it official, a wedding, a life together.
00:57:16Wait, wait, what did you just say?
00:57:20I don't want a contract married with you. I want forever.
00:57:26Are you serious?
00:57:28And when my mom's back from Europe, we'll tell her too. Look, our marriage won't just be for show anymore.
00:57:37Then, yes, of course.
00:57:53We could try for that baby ourselves.
00:57:57We could.
00:58:00Oh my god.
00:58:10Oh my god.
00:58:12Ethan.
00:58:13Ethan.
00:58:14Ethan.
00:58:15Ethan.
00:58:16What?
00:58:17Oh.
00:58:18Damn it.
00:58:19Hello?
00:58:20Ethan.
00:58:21I fell down the stairs.
00:58:22Can you come up?
00:58:23I'm really hurt. I can't move.
00:58:25Sophia, is there not anybody else you can call?
00:58:26Ethan, I don't know anyone else in this city. Who else am I supposed to call? Besides, are we not still friends?
00:58:40All right.
00:58:41No, uh, fine. Yeah, uh, I'll be over in just a few.
00:58:55Hey.
00:58:56Hey, what happened?
00:58:57Um, it's Sophia. She apparently fell and hurt herself and, well, she doesn't really know anybody in the city, so I just need to go over and check on her.
00:59:10Do you want me to come?
00:59:13No, no, no, no. You stay here and rest.
00:59:17Mm-hmm.
00:59:38Sophia, you said you were hurt.
00:59:40Yummy.
00:59:44Oh, I did hurt my ankle. It still hurts when I walk. See?
00:59:49Ow.
00:59:52Oh, no.
00:59:53You lied.
00:59:55Well, I had to see whether you still cared. I was stupid to think you'd wait around forever, but seeing you now, I realized what I gave up. What we had.
01:00:07It's over. I'm married now.
01:00:11Married. It's just a contract. What? You think she loves you? She's in it for the genes. And honestly, Ethan, who could like...
01:00:26No, enough. Wait. Don't go. Please stay one night. That's all I ask.
01:00:33If you keep this up, we won't even be friends.
01:00:40All right. Friends, then. At least that way, I still get to see you.
01:00:48The latest male contraceptive. Not FDA approved yet, but it can instantly be occupied soon.
01:01:00To friendship.
01:01:07Oh, Ethan. No way I'm letting that bitch, Claire, carry your child.
01:01:13You know you should rest up. Heal that ankle. Don't shit me late tomorrow.
01:01:19Oh, wooden train of it. She can borrow you. But you're mine. To the grave.
01:01:29They took your sample ages ago. I mean, why haven't they called me in? Do you think something's wrong?
01:01:44Claire. Come on. Stop overthinking. All right? You know, they're probably just swamped with patients.
01:01:52I mean, stuff like this happens all the time. Yeah. See?
01:01:57Doctor, can I go in now? Not quite, Mrs. Reed. We've just received the results.
01:02:06Unfortunately, Mr. Reed's sperm motility is very low. It's currently not viable for fertilization.
01:02:12What? How is that even possible?
01:02:15What? No, that can't be, right? I'm perfectly healthy. My sperm is fine. Test me again.
01:02:20I understand this is very upsetting, but the numbers are lying. I suggest I retest in two weeks.
01:02:26In the meantime, rest, nutrition, hydration.
01:02:34No, this doesn't make any sense.
01:02:37Hey. Maybe you're just working too hard?
01:02:42You were there for me when this all started, and now it's my turn.
01:02:46We'll get through this. Together.
01:02:50Right. Together.
01:02:52So, we plan on having this whole thing up by 2026. I mean, we have an additional 5,000 rooms on the left wing that we have-
01:03:14Apologies for being late.
01:03:23Everyone, this is Sophia Turner.
01:03:26Effective immediately, she will be taking over as head of the branding division.
01:03:30Oh, pleasure. I'm looking forward to working with you all.
01:03:42She walks in late, and she's already manager. What's her background? I mean, it's getting clear, do you point out?
01:03:59Shag her socials. CEO's acts. The only one he ever won public with.
01:04:04Daughter of some investment tycoon. Wonder where they broke up.
01:04:08So, the queen's come back to take her throne, huh? I guess that means the 10th wife position isn't getting renewed. Nice.
01:04:17They look like the perfect couple.
01:04:34Your contract marriage with Ethan. What? One month left?
01:04:40What's your point?
01:04:42Do you ever wonder if Ethan only married you to scare me back into his life?
01:04:50What?
01:04:52I twisted my ankle last night.
01:04:55He freaked. It was like his world was ending.
01:05:00He promised me he wouldn't let you get pregnant.
01:05:04And, oh, didn't your little fertility trip to the hospital fail?
01:05:11How did you know that?
01:05:13Because I gave him a glass of wine with a little something extra.
01:05:20And let's just say his swimmers are on strike.
01:05:23I watched him drink it and totally enjoy it.
01:05:28Something extra?
01:05:29Wait. Are you telling me you gave him a drug that kills sperm?
01:05:33And he knew about it?
01:05:35Obviously! Oh my god, you're so much more naive than I thought.
01:05:40Claire.
01:05:42Babe. Honey.
01:05:44Cinderella only becomes a princess in the fairy tales.
01:05:48And we ain't in one.
01:05:50So, why don't you go pack your things?
01:05:53Because, Mrs. Reed, that's my name.
01:05:56That's my name.
01:05:59Bye!
01:06:10I should trust Ethan.
01:06:12Sophia probably just settled up to mess with my head.
01:06:15One call to the doctor.
01:06:17I'll prove she's lying.
01:06:19Dr. Young?
01:06:21It's Claire.
01:06:22I just had a quick question.
01:06:23Um, Ethan's sperm motility came back low.
01:06:28Could that ever be caused by...
01:06:31medication?
01:06:33Given Mr. Reed's health history, this result is unusual.
01:06:37It's quite possible he was exposed to something that impairs sperm function.
01:06:41Thank you, doctor.
01:06:46She wasn't lying.
01:06:48She's lying.
01:06:49She's lying.
01:06:51She's lying.
01:06:52Hey, what are you doing down here all by yourself?
01:07:19Is everything okay?
01:07:22You've kind of seen the love down lately.
01:07:33Just ask if there's an explanation.
01:07:40Ethan, the night you went over to Sophia's, did you drink anything?
01:07:48Yeah, wine. Why?
01:07:52So it's true? He drank that wine on purpose, fully aware? Maybe he never wanted to get me pregnant.
01:08:01Did you even know what that meant?
01:08:04Did you even know what that meant?
01:08:08Meant? What do you mean?
01:08:11I mean, I...
01:08:13To friendship.
01:08:18Why the hell is she asking me this?
01:08:21To me, it just meant I set boundaries with her. We're just friends now, right?
01:08:25I mean, I guess, yeah, yeah, I know what that meant.
01:08:28It's all true. I was naive, thinking we could have a future. Sophia was right. Maybe it's time we start putting some distance between us.
01:08:39What is going on in that little head of yours?
01:08:50Nothing. I'm fine.
01:08:52Oh, um, so I'm flying out tomorrow with Sophia. She just landed a major contract.
01:09:04And so, our hospital date's gonna have to wait.
01:09:08But I'll be back as soon as I can.
01:09:12No need.
01:09:14Our contract's almost up anyway.
01:09:15Uh, exactly. Finally, it won't have that thing looming over our heads.
01:09:33Sophia.
01:09:34Um, I'll just take this through. I'll be right back.
01:09:39Okay.
01:09:41So, that's it.
01:09:42You couldn't even wait for the contract to end?
01:09:44To be with her again?
01:09:47Fine.
01:09:49I'm not standing your way.
01:09:58Ahem.
01:10:01Well, our three-month bet is hitting the final stretch.
01:10:04Belly's still flat.
01:10:06CDL was off on a trip with his ex.
01:10:07Ouch.
01:10:08Are you feeling the heat yet?
01:10:10Oh, clock is ticking.
01:10:12You lose, and we want your confession loud and clear.
01:10:17I'm a dried-up old hag.
01:10:22Don't break up the Kimpetti quite yet.
01:10:24I still have one month left.
01:10:27Oh, TikTok.
01:10:28Oh, clock.
01:10:38Pleasure doing business with you.
01:10:40Pleasure is much.
01:10:41Likewise.
01:10:46Boss, you cut things short and bumped your flight.
01:10:49Trying to get home to Mrs. Reed?
01:10:50You know it.
01:10:52She's ovulating tomorrow, so...
01:10:54Gonna take the first flight back, I can?
01:10:56And when she's expecting...
01:10:59Boat.
01:11:03Ha-ha!
01:11:04Got a new surprise for her.
01:11:06Wow, that is so stunning.
01:11:10Mind if I take a closer look?
01:11:13Sure.
01:11:13Um, what are you doing?
01:11:27Um, sorry, it's so beautiful.
01:11:30I just...
01:11:31I needed a picture.
01:11:32I couldn't resist.
01:11:35Put it back in the box.
01:11:37Now?
01:11:38Yeah.
01:11:38Right now?
01:11:39Okay.
01:11:43Am I really going to lose to Ryder?
01:11:51Oh!
01:11:52Careful.
01:11:54You're going to flood the kitchen.
01:11:58So you finally found out that my brother's lying to you, haven't you?
01:12:04Mind your own business.
01:12:13He only married you for the inheritance.
01:12:18He was never going to actually get you pregnant.
01:12:20He's too far in with Sophia.
01:12:23Leave him, Claire.
01:12:25He's not worth it.
01:12:26And you're going to be my white knight?
01:12:28You're only talking to me because I'm a pawn in your little sibling game.
01:12:33Look.
01:12:34Yeah.
01:12:35Maybe at first, of course, I wanted to steal you away from him.
01:12:39But then, I saw your heart.
01:12:45I saw your generosity.
01:12:47I saw your work ethic.
01:12:49And I actually cared.
01:12:52Do you think I am dumb or something?
01:12:55You and Ethan really are brothers.
01:12:58Different jerks.
01:12:59Same old script.
01:13:01You want a kid, right?
01:13:05My papers.
01:13:07I have a perfect sperm count.
01:13:08I can help you.
01:13:10You don't have to put all your eggs into one basket.
01:13:15So you'd rather lose the bed
01:13:17and be the joke that everyone thought you were?
01:13:20Oh, God.
01:13:32I don't know.
01:13:34Chris would make the perfect donor, but...
01:13:38Why can't I feel at peace about it?
01:13:40Pretty, huh?
01:13:52Ethan proposed.
01:13:57He...
01:13:58He proposed to her.

01:26:34This is rain.
01:26:42You still want me not having a baby, but clinical way.
01:26:47Oh, no.
01:26:49This night, I'm with the real deal.
01:27:04Well, I mean, it's okay if we're not.
01:27:11We still have time.
01:27:14I'm pregnant.
01:27:16We're having a baby.
01:27:18Yeah.
01:27:25We're having a baby.
01:27:26I don't look.
01:27:36Claire, Claire, you know I didn't mean all the stuff I said, right?
01:27:40It was a joke.
01:27:42All right?
01:27:43Right.
01:27:44Oh, come on.
01:27:45Hey, man.
01:27:46I bet it's a bet.
01:27:48Lucky for you, we're feeling merciful.
01:27:50So no full-frontal humiliation today.
01:27:53No one wants to see that anyway.
01:27:57But we did come up with a creative alternative.
01:28:02Put that on.
01:28:04And then say exactly what you promised.
01:28:07And make sure you say it loud enough for the entire office to hear.
01:28:09I slept my way to the top.
01:28:27I'm a little bitch boy.
01:28:30Reserve is the father of my child.
01:28:34Yes.
01:28:35Oh, that's good.
01:28:36That's really good.
01:28:36This is much better than the original plan.
01:28:38I think it sounds too much.
01:28:39Ugly.
01:28:51Should we have him stop?
01:28:52No.
01:28:53No.
