Transcript
00:00:00X for a reason.
00:00:07Actually, you know what?
00:00:09I think I found a date you're really gonna like.
00:00:14I gotta go.
00:00:30I'm so scared.
00:00:59I'll double your best payday, and I'll even let you pick our fake backstory.
00:01:08Lucky for you, I do escort work on the side.
00:01:15Give my agency a call. I'm yours so long as you pay.
00:01:29Just stay aware of me, I'm gonna get you free. What you wanna do, tell me what you need.
00:01:34What you wanna do, tell me what you need.
00:01:42Piper?
00:01:44That's me. You must be Tate.
00:01:47Thanks for meeting me at the service entrance. The agency filled you in, yes?
00:01:52You need to be at the top of your game tonight. My mother will be watching me like a hawk.
00:01:56Hopefully, with you there, she won't be trying to set me up with anyone.
00:01:59Of course, Mr. Young. You can trust me. I'm a professional.
00:02:03Well, I mean, you're an escort. It doesn't exactly require an MBA.
00:02:08And hiring an escort doesn't exactly require more than a dick and a credit card.
00:02:13Really just a credit card.
00:02:15That's funny. I thought I paid for a date, not an attitude.
00:02:19Two for the price of one. Lucky you.
00:02:26So, what's the story of how we met?
00:02:35You said you're a professional, right? Make something up.
00:02:39If we wanna pull this off, we're gonna have to have a story.
00:02:42You said yourself that your mother's gonna be watching.
00:02:45Unless you want me to tell her the truth.
00:02:47Look, I realize that some of your other clients may find those kinds of jokes charming, but I need you to take this seriously, okay?
00:02:56My reputation's at stake here.
00:02:59You know, on my way over here, I was wondering, why does Tate Young, the most eligible bachelor in the city, need an escort?
00:03:05And I'm starting to understand why.
00:03:10Tate! You came!
00:03:12It's your rehearsal dinner. What'd you expect?
00:03:15Well, you always seem to find some excuse.
00:03:19And you are?
00:03:24It's nice to meet you, Ariana. I'm Piper.
00:03:27So? How did you two meet?
00:03:32Don't worry, babe. I'll tell her.
00:03:34I hosted a local artist charity auction last month, and the Young Family Foundation bid on a painting for their lobby.
00:03:41I supervised the installation, and Tate was there.
00:03:45The rest is history.
00:03:47Wow. Tate never usually spends time at the foundation.
00:03:51It was our father's passion project, but Tate tends to get his priorities mixed up.
00:03:54Oh. Mom's looking for you? I told her you were over here, so good luck.
00:04:00Mmm.
00:04:02I'm gonna go make out with Dave.
00:04:08You know, I gotta say, it's a little scary how good of a liar you are.
00:04:12Oh, Tate. We've got to work on your trust issues.
00:04:16That whole story was true. Aside from meeting you, of course.
00:04:21Well, you're about to see where I got those trust issues from.
00:04:26Hello. I don't believe you're on our guest list.
00:04:30Mom, come on. Is that anyone who treat my date?
00:04:34It's lovely to meet you, Mrs. Young.
00:04:36I was just telling your daughter that you bid on a painting at a local art auction I held last month.
00:04:42You hosted that? That painting spoke to me immediately.
00:04:47And I was especially intrigued with how the artist signed it.
00:04:50No name, just for Elizabeth.
00:04:54A dedication to the artist's mother.
00:04:56Must be nice for a mother to feel appreciated.
00:04:58I tried to find the artist, but if that artist appreciates their anonymity...
00:05:05Oh.
00:05:07And how about you, dear?
00:05:09Do you appreciate your anonymity as well?
00:05:12I'm an open book.
00:05:14Ask me anything.
00:05:16Oh.
00:05:18Where did you grow up?
00:05:19New York.
00:05:20Did you attend college?
00:05:22Princeton.
00:05:23College and graduate school for my MFA.
00:05:25Whoa.
00:05:26Poor dear.
00:05:27You must be drowning in student debt.
00:05:30Actually, my family didn't have to take out any loans, thank goodness.
00:05:33Oh.
00:05:34So you're comfortable.
00:05:35My mother was at the top of her field, so...
00:05:37Yes.
00:05:38We were comfortable.
00:05:40I see.
00:05:41We'll all have to have lunch together.
00:05:43Um...
00:05:44My mother is...
00:05:46Unfortunately, no longer with us.
00:05:49Alright.
00:05:50Okay.
00:05:51Enough with the third degree.
00:05:52I think Piper deserves a breather.
00:05:53I'll give her a tour of the house.
00:05:57Nice meeting you.
00:05:59You too.
00:06:09Okay.
00:06:10So, we've established that you're an enormous dork.
00:06:13Which is...
00:06:14Probably why you have a hard time with the ladies.
00:06:16I prefer to focus on my work.
00:06:19Hmm.
00:06:20You know they have support groups for that kind of thing.
00:06:23Stop.
00:06:24You sound like my mother.
00:06:25She's been going to extremes to try to get me to settle down.
00:06:29Oh.
00:06:30What kind of extremes?
00:06:31Trying to get me back together with my ex.
00:06:34Speaking of...
00:06:35Hey, baby.
00:06:36Baby.
00:06:37I missed you.
00:06:38Delaney.
00:06:39This is...
00:06:40Piper.
00:06:41His girlfriend.
00:06:43Delaney Hughes.
00:06:45His first love.
00:06:47Is that right?
00:06:48See, you're still trying to replace me, huh?
00:06:50What app did you find this one on?
00:06:52Piper is in the arts.
00:06:54That's where we met.
00:06:56And Delaney here is a lawyer at the firm.
00:06:58See, that's not all I am, and you know it.
00:07:00We dated all throughout high school and college.
00:07:03And then we broke up.
00:07:04Hmm?
00:07:05Delaney, why are you here?
00:07:06Oh, don't be like that.
00:07:07You know Josie and I have always been close.
00:07:10Why, I'm practically family, and who knows?
00:07:13Maybe someday I will be.
00:07:14Delaney, what are you doing here?
00:07:16Thank God I came, right?
00:07:18I mean, it doesn't look like there was much of a churn out.
00:07:21We kept the guest list intimate.
00:07:22We didn't want anything to...
00:07:24Expensive?
00:07:25I mean, this family is worth millions.
00:07:27I'm sad that they couldn't bring you a decent wedding.
00:07:29If your father were alive to see his daughter...
00:07:31Delaney!
00:07:32Yes?
00:07:33You're...
00:07:34Drunk.
00:07:36I'll call you a car.
00:07:37Don't be silly.
00:07:39Go, Delaney.
00:07:40I didn't invite you here.
00:07:42Your mother did.
00:07:43Well, it's not her wedding, is it?
00:07:45The car's five minutes away.
00:07:46Feel free to wait outside.
00:07:48You should learn to stay out of my business.
00:07:51Otherwise, I might start sniffing around yours.
00:07:57I hope this isn't too forward, but can we be best friends already?
00:08:05Not too forward at all.
00:08:07Sorry about Delaney.
00:08:08It's okay.
00:08:09Or it will be.
00:08:10As long as you keep this girl around.
00:08:14I meant what I said earlier.
00:08:19If we're gonna get through tonight, we have to get to know one another.
00:08:23Your family's not gonna stop crying.
00:08:25Okay, fine.
00:08:28I graduated from Columbia.
00:08:31Summa cum laude.
00:08:32Interned at Goldman Sachs.
00:08:34Became the youngest CEO in the firm's history.
00:08:37Made the Forbes 30 under 30 list.
00:08:39And now, I'm expected to carry on a tradition of excellence.
00:08:44Hmm.
00:08:46Boring.
00:08:48Oh, success is boring to you?
00:08:51I can find all that stuff on Google.
00:08:53I wanna know who you really are.
00:08:55Okay.
00:08:57Um, I'm good at billiards.
00:08:59Oh, God.
00:09:01Just call it pool, like a normal person.
00:09:03Pools are for swimming.
00:09:05Wow.
00:09:06Having a life of privilege really did a number on you, huh?
00:09:09Privilege is subjective.
00:09:11Well, money's not.
00:09:13And that makes all of the other problems a whole lot easier.
00:09:18Oh.
00:09:19What's this?
00:09:21Absolutely not.
00:09:22It does not say no escorts.
00:09:30Oh.
00:09:37A-B honor roll.
00:09:39So you're a huge nerd.
00:09:41Briefly.
00:09:44I loved space, anyway.
00:09:46What the hell happened?
00:09:48What do you mean?
00:09:49Based on my research, I couldn't find a single photo where you actually looked happy.
00:09:54And that Forbes 30 under 30 profile.
00:09:57It was thoughtful.
00:09:59Introspective.
00:10:00Mildly suicidal.
00:10:02Definitely depressing.
00:10:08Fine.
00:10:09There was this space camp that I begged my parents to attend.
00:10:14Finally, they agreed the summer before I went to high school.
00:10:18But, uh, while I was gone, my, uh, my father passed away.
00:10:24I'm so sorry for your loss.
00:10:26After that, I guess I stopped looking up at the stars.
00:10:31That's where he was, you know?
00:10:32That's where he was, you know?
00:10:33That's where he was, you know?
00:10:34That set it down here with us.
00:10:36That set it down here with us.
00:10:37That set it down here with us.
00:10:54Are you okay?
00:10:55I should, uh, get back to the party before my mother comes looking.
00:10:56So you're coming to the wedding tomorrow, right?
00:11:10I don't work multi-day job.
00:11:11Plus, I don't think I should.
00:11:14Your family is way too involved.
00:11:17It's too complicated.
00:11:18I thought you said you were a professional.
00:11:20You'll have to make up an excuse.
00:11:24Or give them my apologies.
00:11:27I'm sorry, Tate.
00:11:29Really.
00:11:32I'll double your rate.
00:11:37And I'll do whatever you say.
00:11:40Open up as much as necessary.
00:11:42You don't want to keep lying to your family, Tate.
00:11:45I mean, what's your big plan here?
00:11:47You know, for once, I'm not trying to strategize ten steps ahead.
00:11:49I know what I want right now.
00:11:54I'll talk to the agency.
00:11:57See if they can make arrangements.
00:12:04Thank you, Piper.
00:12:06Don't thank me yet.
00:12:08Look, I'd better go.
00:12:13No problem.
00:12:19Then I can build a piece like that.
00:12:22I need it.
00:12:23You know what?
00:12:28This ...
00:12:42Yeah. The next two nights? Is Renee available? She's just so good with all the medications.
00:13:08Oh good. Please tell her that I'll have my room ready for her.
00:13:38Cause I can't take it away. This is changing me.
00:13:48Oh good. Please tell her that I'll have my room ready for her.
00:13:55So tell me what you need. Cause I can't take it away. This is changing me.
00:14:10Oh good. Please tell her that I'll have my room ready for her.
00:14:17So tell me what you need. Cause I can't take it away.
00:14:25This is changing me.
00:14:32I can't take it away.
00:14:37I can't take it away.
00:14:40I can't take it away.
00:14:44I can't take it away.
00:14:50Shit.
00:14:58Fuck.
00:15:00Text date.
00:15:10I can't make it to the wedding today. I'm sorry. I'll return your money now.
00:15:15Send.
00:15:23Not an option. Contract is signed with the agency.
00:15:27See you at 11 a.m.
00:15:29Look.
00:15:34Oh.
00:15:39Hello.
00:15:40There you are.
00:15:41Sorry I couldn't hear the gate.
00:15:44It was open.
00:15:45But I'm here.
00:15:47And having a colossally bad hair day.
00:15:50Okay well you can't wear a hat to the wedding.
00:15:54It can't be that bad.
00:15:56Let me see it.
00:15:57It's that bad.
00:15:58No one can see.
00:15:59Show me.
00:16:01Show me.
00:16:10I'm sorry.
00:16:11Uh.
00:16:12Wow.
00:16:18What are you doing?
00:16:19Just trust me okay?
00:16:20I grew up with a sister.
00:16:21So how did this happen anyway?
00:16:25I fell asleep painting.
00:16:27Which I haven't done since I was a kid.
00:16:30I'm surprised you had the energy to paint after everything yesterday.
00:16:34I was inspired.
00:16:35I know what you mean.
00:16:36You know we have staff for that sort of thing.
00:16:49Yes.
00:16:50And I've seen children set up a tea party neater than this.
00:16:53You're in a good mood.
00:16:55It's a good day.
00:16:57It's Piper isn't it?
00:17:00I was skeptical.
00:17:02But I see how happy she makes you.
00:17:05Mom.
00:17:06Please don't make a big deal out of this.
00:17:08Okay?
00:17:09Your father would have liked her.
00:17:14I like her too.
00:17:18Hey.
00:17:19What are you doing with those flowers?

00:17:27What are you doing?
00:17:38The RuPaulgar Paraüs.
00:17:40Ready?
00:17:43when we first met, we agreed we felt like teenagers again.
00:17:53Energized.
00:17:54invincible but as we fell in love I felt more like a little kid again full of
00:18:00wonder and hope I had absolute faith in you because I felt absolutely cherished
00:18:08just like I did when I was small my father taught me that unconditional love
00:18:15was possible and I know you're the only man he'd trust his little girl to you
00:18:23because you love all versions of me unconditionally and I vow to love you
00:18:31just the same young or old richer poorer and sickness and in health forever

00:35:41he never signs his paintings
00:35:43i didn't realize he was being shown in a gallery
00:35:48i think i saw one of his paintings in your catalog

00:35:55what do you think you're doing here
00:35:57excuse me
00:35:59i need to talk to the artist immediately

00:37:00yes i'm having a girl
00:37:03and just because i don't have the same resources as you

00:41:41you were the one that brought her in this house in the first place
00:41:44you're right
00:41:45and i'm ashamed of us
00:41:48for how we treated her
00:41:51you want to know why she was escorting
00:41:54it's because her mother is sick
00:41:56not dead

00:42:39when did you paint it
00:42:41the night i met him
00:42:43before everything else
00:42:46i was thinking about vermeer's portraits
00:42:50his use of light and contrast to create a whole world and essence of a person
00:42:56what appears at first glance simple
00:43:00becomes increasingly intimate
00:43:04and exposes who the person is emotionally
00:43:08i owe you an apology piper
00:43:13and an explanation
00:43:15the way i accused you of only going after tate for his money
00:43:21i only feared that because
00:43:23that's how i married my husband
00:43:26i grew up with so little
00:43:28practically nothing really
00:43:30i vowed my children would not have the same fate
00:43:34so you accused me of what you did
00:43:36you went digging for gold
00:43:38only at first
00:43:39but yes
00:43:41i sought out harrison for the security
00:43:44so what happened after you got married
00:43:47did you tell him the truth or did you just live out a lie
00:43:50after a few months i was head over heels
00:43:53harrison was the love of my life
00:43:56the best husband and father i could have ever asked for
00:43:59well i'm sorry tate didn't turn out more like harrison then
00:44:02but
00:44:03i appreciate your honesty
00:44:05piper
00:44:07i know that if given the chance
00:44:10tate would follow in his father's footsteps
00:44:13you don't have to forgive me
00:44:17but please
00:44:18please let tate be a part of his child's life
00:44:22i'll think about it
00:44:26josey brought me
00:44:44she must have really groveled
00:44:46she did change my mind about something
00:44:49i never grew up knowing my father
00:44:53and
00:44:56i'd be lying if i said that i didn't feel that absence
00:44:59so i'm
00:45:00willing to let you be in her life
00:45:03on my terms
00:45:09see you in a month

00:50:21I can't solve this problem.
00:50:22I can't do that.
00:50:23I can't do that.
00:50:24Because people are not afraid of them,
00:50:26I can't do anything.
00:50:28I don't want anybody to do that.
00:50:29I can't do it.
00:50:30I'm sorry, I can't do anything.
00:50:31Just my other.
00:50:32I can't do it.
00:50:33I can't do it.

00:50:35I can't do it.
00:50:36But, I can do this.
00:50:37I can't do it.
00:50:38I can't do it.
00:50:39I can't do it.
00:50:40You can do it.
00:50:42I know who this one's from.
00:50:51Oh, my God.
00:50:54From a mom to a mom.
00:50:58I love it.
00:51:01Wow.
00:51:08Well, that'll go great with what I got you.
00:51:12Mom, everyone.
00:51:19I've decided to keep Dad's foundation going.
00:51:24We're going to work with local artists in the community.
00:51:28Ones that have never had their own space.
00:51:31It's going to be for them.
00:51:35And that's not all.
00:51:37I've been thinking about it a lot these past few days.
00:51:41Especially what makes me happy.
00:51:43It all comes down to family.
00:51:47I want to follow in Dad's footsteps.
00:51:50Do good.
00:51:52Be good.
00:51:55And that is why I am starting the Harrison Young Explorers program in his name.
00:52:00So that more kids can go to space camp or art camp or whatever it is they dream of going.
00:52:06I don't know how you did it, Piper.
00:52:09You gave me my brother back.
00:52:12Happy birthday, Josie!
00:52:14Delaney, what are you doing here?
00:52:16I changed my flight so I could be here for your mother's birthday.
00:52:19What the hell is she doing here?
00:52:28And what is that?
00:52:30That's mine, Delaney.
00:52:32We're having a baby.
00:52:34Oh, this family is full of secrets, aren't they?
00:52:37Did you tell them the other news, Tate?
00:52:39Did you tell them that we're engaged?
00:52:41Tate, what is she talking about?
00:52:50I didn't think she was going to do this.
00:52:52Delaney.
00:52:52What?
00:52:53You'd rather have that whore for a daughter-in-law?
00:52:55You watch your language when talking about the mother of my grandchild.
00:53:00Josie, it's fine.
00:53:01Thank you for defending me, but Tate can make his own decisions and clearly he has decided
00:53:07who he wants to be with, so...
00:53:09The press is going to love this.
00:53:12I mean, what about the stock prices?
00:53:15What happens when they find out that their CEO is having a bastard child with a prostitute?
00:53:20Tell the press whatever you want.
00:53:22Piper!
00:53:22Tate!
00:53:23Baby, I love you!
00:53:24You love my name, Delaney.
00:53:26Piper.
00:53:30Hey, Piper.
00:53:31I swear to you.
00:53:33This was a mistake.
00:53:34You should have never come.
00:53:35I never proposed, okay?
00:53:36I was going to end things when she got back.
00:53:38This world that you live in is toxic.
00:53:42I agree.
00:53:42Hey, hey, Piper.
00:53:43I agree with you.
00:53:44I would give all this up just to be with you and our daughter.
00:53:49You brought me back to life the night of my sister's wedding, but I was just too stupid
00:53:53to see it.
00:53:54Hi.
00:53:54Hey.
00:53:54Hey.
00:53:55You okay?
00:53:56What's wrong?
00:53:57I don't...
00:53:58You okay?
00:53:58I don't feel good.
00:53:59Hey.
00:54:00Piper.
00:54:00Hey, Piper.
00:54:01Hey, Piper.
00:54:02I got you.
00:54:03Hey.
00:54:03Hey.
00:54:04Someone help!
00:54:04Hey.
00:54:05You're awake.
00:54:19You really scared me back there.
00:54:21Hey, Piper.
00:54:22Hey, Piper.
00:54:22Hey, Piper.
00:54:23Hey, Piper.
00:54:23Hey.
00:54:24What happened?
00:54:24What happened?
00:54:24I guess you got up so fast.
00:54:28Your blood pressure dropped and you fainted.
00:54:30But the family doctor said you and the baby are both fine.
00:54:35I have to go.
00:54:36My mom...
00:54:36I called your nurse. Renee is with her.
00:54:39Please, stay, Piper.
00:54:45Delaney is not gonna bother us anymore. I promise you that.
00:54:51I heard what you said out there.
00:54:56I meant every word of it.
00:54:59It's not that I don't believe you. It's just...
00:55:04I'm really scared, Tate.
00:55:11Tell me what you're scared of.
00:55:14Messing up our kid. Spoiling her too much, or not enough, or...
00:55:21What if we're bad parents?
00:55:24We don't know what we're doing.
00:55:26We'll get through it together.
00:55:29That's not what scares me the most, though.
00:55:39I'm scared of how much I love you.
00:55:45I love you too.
00:55:47We hardly know each other.
00:55:49It sounds crazy, but...
00:55:53I feel like you know me better than anyone else.
00:55:56The real me.
00:55:59But ask me anything.
00:56:01I'm an open book.
00:56:06What do you want?
00:56:07I want us to be a family, Piper.
00:56:10That's it.
00:56:11First and foremost.
00:56:15I want to give Lizzie the kind of childhood that you and I never got to have.
00:56:19Lizzie?
00:56:21Yeah.
00:56:23Short for Elizabeth.
00:56:25I thought it sounded right.
00:56:26It sounds perfect.
00:56:42My mom is so excited we're moving into the estate.
00:56:45It's not exactly giving normal childhood.
00:56:48Well, normal doesn't have to mean lugging a stroller up four flights stairs, Piper.
00:56:51And besides, there's more than enough room here for me, you, Lizzie, and your mom.
00:56:56She does seem more comfortable here.
00:56:59I, um...
00:57:01I have a confession to make.
00:57:03After the family doctor gave you the all-clear,
00:57:06I asked her to reach out to some Alzheimer's specialists.
00:57:10You did that?
00:57:11Of course.
00:57:13I talked to them and we came up with an action plan that should give Elizabeth more good days.
00:57:18What kind of action plan?
00:57:19Well, a full-time in-house specialist for one.
00:57:22And an environment where she's surrounded by people who care for her.
00:57:27Plus, something else that should help bring back some memories.
00:57:34Is that a piano?
00:57:35Is that a piano?
00:57:49She's happy.
00:57:52Tate, I can tell she's happy.
00:57:55We usually came right back to her.
00:57:56The doctors don't know if it was muscle memory or what, but they think it's a good sign.
00:58:03I'm not surprised.
00:58:05You know, it's in her muscles, her blood, her DNA, everything.
00:58:10Everything.
00:58:12Do you want to try talking to her?
00:58:16Not yet.
00:58:18I want her to have this.
00:58:24My mom took Lizzy on a walk to show her off to the neighborhood.
00:58:38Oh, she's going to have the whole street wrapped around her finger.
00:58:40You know, you're not going to be able to teach her how to use that for a few years.
00:58:54Yes, but in the meantime, he'll teach her how to paint.
00:58:59And who knows?
00:59:01Maybe we'll have the next story night on our hands.
00:59:04Hopefully without the botched eardrop.
00:59:06There's a piece I can't find.
00:59:08Do you mind looking in that box for me?
00:59:10It's small and gold.
00:59:14Tate, what's this?
00:59:24Piper Manning, you made me want to look up at the stars again.
00:59:33Will you marry me?
00:59:36I will.
00:59:54Whoops.
00:59:55And the next one, let me know you.
00:59:57Take care.
01:00:03Come on!
01:00:04We love Maggie, rip my partner!
01:00:07We love Maggie Miller
