00:00:00Today's biggest news, Jonathan Whiteford, the city's golden bachelor, is set to marry
00:00:15his longtime fiance, Julie Miller, uniting New York's most elite families.
00:00:19This is Amber Wilson from KKR News.
00:00:30Mr. Whiteford, your meeting is in 30 minutes.
00:00:36You smoking cigarettes?
00:00:40It's an important meeting.
00:00:42We need to get ready.
00:00:44You can be a little soft in the morning.
00:00:46A little like some buzzkill.
00:00:50Good morning to you, too.
00:00:55I had never had Mediterranean food before.
00:00:57So he immediately takes me to this restaurant on 45th.
00:01:01Hey, Jonathan, he's quite the romantic.
00:01:04And then what?
00:01:05Oh, Mabel, right?
00:01:09Sorry, I didn't mean to take your seat.
00:01:10Come join us.
00:01:11We were just chatting about my amazing weekend with Jonathan.
00:01:15Oh, Mabel would know.
00:01:16She schedules everything, Jonathan.
00:01:20Oh, right, his personal assistant.
00:01:23It's nice to meet you.
00:01:24I'm Julie Miller, Jonathan's fiance.
00:01:26Nice to meet you, Ms. Miller.
00:01:30Julie's assistant doesn't mean getting personal.
00:01:34Take this as an opening.
00:01:36I've read so many wonderful things about you, Mabel.
00:01:40Julie, what are you doing here?
00:01:44It's just a surprise visit for my lovely fiancée.
00:02:00Julie, I thought we discussed about keeping boundaries.
00:02:03In front of everyone, play the part, Jonathan.
00:02:06We're engaged, remember?
00:02:09Mabel, are you ready for the meeting?
00:02:11Yes, everything's prepared.
00:02:13Good, I want you to take the lead this time.
00:02:15Lead the meeting?
00:02:16Yes, you've earned it.
00:02:18Feel up for it?
00:02:20Absolutely.
00:02:23Thank you, Mr. Whiteford.
00:02:25I need formalities.
00:02:25Come on, let's go.
00:02:27We're going to be late.
00:02:31Always work first with him, huh?
00:02:33Congratulations on nailing the pitch, Mabel.
00:02:53Well, I learned from the best.
00:02:54I'm busy.
00:03:10Adam, is he as you thought?
00:03:14Mom!
00:03:15I thought we agreed on calling first.
00:03:18Since when do I need permission to see my son, hmm?
00:03:22What's the matter?
00:03:23We are hosting a joint family dinner with the Millers.
00:03:28You and Julie are expected to be there.
00:03:30We agreed to delay the engagement.
00:03:31This is not up for debate.
00:03:33You will attend the family dinner.
00:03:35And you should join us well, Mabel.
00:03:42Mabel, can you pull me some wine?
00:04:09Mabel's a guest.
00:04:10Of course.
00:04:11Is there?
00:04:12A soon-to-be Mrs. Whiteford.
00:04:15Dad, I'm still your daughter.
00:04:18We are so excited to welcome you into our family.
00:04:23This is the first joyful dinner we've had since Fiona.
00:04:31With Jonathan and Julie together.
00:04:36It almost feels like Fiona is with us here again.
00:04:43Mom.
00:04:45We are so looking forward to this marriage.
00:04:48Yeah.
00:04:52I'm full.
00:04:53Please enjoy.
00:04:54You okay?
00:05:11You okay?
00:05:11Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:05:15I thought you were someone else.
00:05:16Who are you looking for?
00:05:18Who are you looking for?
00:05:19Jonathan Whiteford, huh?
00:05:21The owner of the mansion.
00:05:23You, uh, must be his girlfriend.
00:05:25No, just his assistant.
00:05:26I see.
00:05:28I'm Ryan.
00:05:29My father is the gardener here.
00:05:31I know the house really well.
00:05:33I actually may be able to help you.
00:05:34Jonathan has a few favorite spots around here.
00:05:37Though he doesn't visit much nowadays.
00:05:39He does have quite a few properties.
00:05:41Yes, he prefers to live alone.
00:05:44Is that so?
00:05:46Oh, good.
00:05:46You've met.
00:05:48I was thinking of setting you two up on a date.
00:05:52You make a cute couple.
00:06:02Petit?
00:06:03Yes, Mabel.
00:06:05Ryan's a fine young man, and you're a diligent worker.
00:06:09You make a good match.
00:06:10Well, it's a kind offer, but I'm not interested in dating anyone right now.
00:06:16No offense.
00:06:18None take it.
00:06:19Anyway, I should go find Jonathan.
00:06:21He has a very early meeting.
00:06:25Mabel, you're a smart girl.
00:06:29I know how busy you've been serving my son.
00:06:32What fun you've had.
00:06:34I don't understand.
00:06:36Let me clarify.
00:06:37You're barely a side dish.
00:06:39Now the main course is served.
00:06:43Stay away from my son.
00:06:46Or lose your position at the company and be blacklisted elsewhere.
00:06:50Have I made myself clear?
00:06:51Now, about you and Ryan.
00:06:59You're quite the pair.
00:07:00I can foresee a wedding in the near future.
00:07:20Morning.
00:07:21The files are ready for you to sign.
00:07:30Were you okay last night?
00:07:32What's on my schedule for today?
00:07:38One meeting in the morning, two in the afternoon, and Julie wants a dinner date.
00:07:46I set up calendar alerts.
00:07:53You're wearing a new perfume today, if I'd later.
00:08:05Yes.
00:08:06Miss Whiteford set me up for a date.
00:08:09It's after work.
00:08:10A date?
00:08:13Are you joking?
00:08:14You're not the only one inclined for a bit of romance.
00:08:18Jonathan.
00:08:23Before we start, you should know that I am a messy eater, and I hate cats.
00:08:36I'm also indifferent to humanity and climate change.
00:08:41We can just agree that this wasn't a match.
00:08:43And that's your strategy for tonight?
00:08:46Tell me more about yourself.
00:08:48What do you want to know?
00:08:49Family?
00:08:49My mom died, and my father is a gambler.
00:08:53You'd inherit his debts at the altar.
00:08:56Delightful company you are.
00:08:58I'm a walking lifeblood.
00:08:59Who knows?
00:09:00I might even become an abuser.
00:09:02An abuser?
00:09:04Do you use reps?
00:09:06Right?
00:09:07You see, I enjoy being tied up, so rather intrigued.
00:09:13Weirdo.
00:09:14Says Miss Monster Day.
00:09:16Meet Mall.
00:09:27You're Jack's son.
00:09:29He was such a talented gardener.
00:09:32A favorite servant of mine growing up.
00:09:35If you don't mind, we're on a date.
00:09:37Oh, and having fun, I see.
00:09:38We would be, without any interruptions.
00:09:43I'm on my way.
00:09:55Okay.
00:09:56Sorry.
00:09:57I have to go.
00:10:00Regal.
00:10:05He says, yeah, I'm here for my father, Mr. Morris.
00:10:08What happened?
00:10:09He's stable now.
00:10:10The character's got rough with him.
00:10:13Broke a couple ribs, but he's breathing.
00:10:15How do I pay for the bills?
00:10:19They've been paid for.
00:10:21By whom?
00:10:26Ryan.
00:10:27What are you doing here?
00:10:29Finish the date.
00:10:30I'm starving.
00:10:33Very expensive date.
00:10:36Pay it back.
00:10:36Later.
00:10:38For now, let's get something to eat.
00:10:50You grew up in the Whiteford Mansion?
00:10:53Yeah, I did.
00:10:54I helped my dad with the gardens, and we planted exotic flowers from around the world.
00:11:00Paradise for plant geeks, for sure.
00:11:02I'm super nerdy.
00:11:03Hey.
00:11:04Hey.
00:11:05You were serious about your father's deaths, weren't you?
00:11:12He was a gambler, and he's changed, but it still haunts us.
00:11:18I just hope to one day settle the deaths.
00:11:21You are not the terrible person you made yourself out to be.
00:11:24You've known me for one day.
00:11:26Hold your conclusion, Mr. Locke.
00:11:28Well, this is Lowell.
00:11:34Um, good night, nerd.
00:11:36Good night, monster date.
00:11:47It's late.
00:11:47Where you been?
00:11:55Were you out with him all night?
00:11:58It's my personal time.
00:12:00I don't have to report everything to you.
00:12:02So it went well, then.
00:12:03Your mother set us up, Jonathan.
00:12:05How could I refuse?
00:12:07Good.
00:12:08So then it was all just for show?
00:12:10Well, I actually had a really nice time.
00:12:11I might consider a second date.
00:12:14I can still smell Julie's perfume.
00:12:16Then come shower it off me.
00:12:20You went on a date with another man.
00:12:22And you took another woman to a restaurant that I recommended.
00:12:24Jealous?
00:12:26Not as much as you.
00:12:27It was beautiful.
00:12:58Coffee or tea?
00:13:05Coffee.
00:13:10You never make me breakfast.
00:13:15Last night was an American breaking.
00:13:19I'm breaking up with you.
00:13:28What do you mean?
00:13:29Well, more of an ending than a breakup, really.
00:13:32We need to stop, whatever this is.
00:13:34What about last night?
00:13:38Consider it a breakup gift.
00:13:39Breakup? We aren't even together.
00:13:41Exactly.
00:13:46Shouldn't be too hard to move on.
00:13:47Happy 7th Anniversary!
00:14:02Anniversary?
00:14:06I mean, 7 years of Webber.
00:14:08Sounds nice, doesn't it?
00:14:10Wow, it really has been that long.
00:14:12What are you doing?
00:14:16What are you doing?
00:14:18Boss, it's her special day.
00:14:20So?
00:14:21We have the meeting with Harbour in an hour.
00:14:24Do your jobs!
00:14:25Yours is?
00:14:26Didn't go to work.
00:14:33Thanks a lot.
00:14:42I'm going to grab her.
00:14:44You're good.
00:14:44Woo!
00:14:46Thank you!
00:14:47Ent case for you.
00:14:49I'll go for it, Tim.
00:14:50I'll go for it, Tim.
00:14:52I'll take on this one.
00:14:53We'll związide one of his怎麼樣.
00:15:53Hello, this is Mabel.
00:15:58Evening, Mabel.
00:16:00Ryan, what an honor.
00:16:02You want to grab dinner together?
00:16:03Just as friends, of course.
00:16:05I'm not up for another dramatic day.
00:16:09Sure, why not?
00:16:10Where are we going?
00:16:12I know the perfect spot.
00:16:13I'll text you.
00:16:14See you soon.
00:16:14I'm so glad we got to try this thing again.
00:16:20This is amazing.
00:16:22I know.
00:16:23I think it puts some drugs in it or something.
00:16:25It'd be weird if they didn't.
00:16:26How could it be so addictive?
00:16:29How have you been lately?
00:16:31Can I complain?
00:16:33Because you signed an NDA or because you are happy?
00:16:37The latter.
00:16:38Although, if I did sign an NDA, I couldn't really share otherwise.
00:16:42Could I?
00:16:43This is true.
00:16:45Hey, I asked you out on a date for a reason.
00:16:49I think we'd make excellent business partners.
00:16:51Business partners?
00:16:52Yeah.
00:16:53Well, I was just saying our first date was rather chaotic.
00:16:56So I wasn't able to properly introduce myself to you.
00:17:01I'm Ryan Anderson.
00:17:02I'm the founder of Novatec.
00:17:04And I would like for you to join us head of the creative strategies.
00:17:08Novatec?
00:17:14Novatec?
00:17:16But I thought you said you were...
00:17:18The gardener's son.
00:17:18Yes, I still am, but I'm not defined by what my father does.
00:17:23Even if Barbara thinks so.
00:17:26After years of education and hard work, I find myself at MIT and started my own company.
00:17:33It's good to own something of your own, right?
00:17:36That's incredible, Ryan.
00:17:37And I'm grateful for the opportunity, but I already have a job.
00:17:41And I'm just an assistant.
00:17:43So I'm sure there are other people much more qualified than me out there.
00:17:47You're not just anyone.
00:17:49You're the key success to the Wifers project.
00:17:52It's time for you to get outside of Jonathan's shadow.
00:17:56So, cheers to chasing what you truly deserve.
00:18:00Miss Whiteford, um, Jonathan's left for the interview.
00:18:20I'm here to see you.
00:18:22How was everything with Ryan?
00:18:24It was pleasant.
00:18:26Thank you for the introduction.
00:18:29When do you plan to marry him?
00:18:31We've only just met.
00:18:34I've warned you.
00:18:36No marriage.
00:18:39No job at Whiteford Tech.
00:18:42And you will be banned from the industry.
00:18:45I've ended things with Jonathan.
00:18:47Then marry Ryan to prove it.
00:18:48I've done my research as well, Mabel.
00:18:54Leave my son, and I'll clear all your father's debts.
00:18:59If not, those seeking him will find him.
00:19:03Perhaps Jonathan is the one who needs guidance, not me.
00:19:09I don't think you understand the situation.
00:19:13You are nothing to Jonathan.
00:19:16At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:19:20A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:19:22What do you mean?
00:19:24You don't know, do you?
00:19:29Mary Ryan, it's my last warning.
00:19:33Did I miss him, Pete?
00:19:54Uh, no, I just...
00:19:57Your driver couldn't get a hold of you.
00:19:58He was concerned.
00:20:00Mr. Whiteford, it's October 15th.
00:20:02Oh, shit, shit.
00:20:03You never always take the day off.
00:20:06It's okay.
00:20:07The car's out front.
00:20:08No, no, it's not okay.
00:20:09I never forget...
00:20:13Clear everything for today.
00:20:14Okay.
00:20:15I've kept your calendar clear, as always.
00:20:17Okay, thank you.
00:20:19Um, the car, Mr. Whiteford.
00:20:21Right.
00:20:21I'll, uh, see you.
00:20:23At the office?
00:20:23Right.
00:20:24Hello?
00:20:25Oh, uh, okay.
00:20:34I'm on my way.
00:20:40The entire server crashed.
00:20:42Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:44Hey, what happened?
00:20:45We are under attack.
00:20:46We need a system reboot.
00:20:47Where is Mr. Whiteford?
00:20:48We need his admin call.
00:20:49Now.
00:20:50Okay, he's out of the office.
00:20:51Um, let me just try contacting him, okay?
00:20:57We need that code.
00:20:58Do you have access to it?
00:20:59No, that code is highly confidential.
00:21:01Jonathan is the sole owner.
00:21:03Um, let me try.
00:21:12What is...
00:21:13We're completely offline.
00:21:14Come on, Mabel.
00:21:15You know you're the best.
00:21:16It won't.
00:21:20Try Fiona.
00:21:22F-I-O-N-A.
00:21:26Fiona.
00:21:27Give it a shot.
00:21:31Fiona.
00:21:32Give it a shot.
00:21:38Remember that awkward dinner at the Whiteford?
00:21:40It says, Fiona, you are nothing to tell him.
00:21:46At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:21:50A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:22:01Hello, Jonathan.
00:22:03Good to see you.
00:22:05How may I help you?
00:22:06Did Jonathan model this whole thing after you?
00:22:11Oh, no.
00:22:12That's not Mabel.
00:22:15That's my sister, Fiona.
00:22:19Jonathan's first love.
00:22:19Uh, next, Mabel Morris.
00:22:35Uh, next, Mabel Morris.
00:22:35Hello.
00:22:50Hello.
00:22:55You know, coding demands intense focus and absolute silence.
00:22:59That's why having a capable assistant to help with other things, like interviews, is crucial.
00:23:09I'm Mabel Morris, Mr. Whiteford.
00:23:23Here's my resume.
00:23:27Mabel.
00:23:28Nice to meet you.
00:23:29Nice to meet you.
00:23:31Nice to meet you.
00:23:33Nice to meet you.
00:23:35Nice to meet you.
00:23:37Nice to meet you.
00:23:39When can you start?
00:23:45Tomorrow.
00:23:47No, actually, today.
00:23:49Welcome to Wife at Tech.
00:23:52Babe, babe, babe.
00:23:54Mabel.
00:23:54Mabel.
00:23:54Mabel.
00:23:56Mabel, are you all right?
00:24:07I know.
00:24:08Shocking, isn't it?
00:24:10You know, when they mentioned you years ago, I was concerned.
00:24:14I thought you had actually fallen for someone.
00:24:16But then I saw you, and I knew there was nothing to worry about.
00:24:22To Jonathan, you're just a reminder of my sister.
00:24:26He doesn't love you.
00:24:27You're nothing but a shadow to him.
00:24:29You are, at best, a placebo.
00:24:31Oh, Mabel.
00:24:36Did you actually think you stood a chance?
00:24:42You, that is my fuck off.
00:24:50Oh, do you know about today?
00:24:52I don't want to know.
00:24:54Fiona died today, seven years ago.
00:24:56He visits her grave on this day, every year.
00:25:02You see?
00:25:04You're just a joke.
00:25:05Hey, Mabel.
00:25:30What's wrong?
00:25:35There was an attack on the system at work today.
00:25:39Okay.
00:25:40Well, since you're here and not at the office, I assume it's resolved.
00:25:46You ask her.
00:25:48What is it?
00:25:51What?
00:25:52The code, Jonathan, what is it?
00:25:53That's none of your business.
00:25:58Come on.
00:25:59Uh, tell me about this attack.
00:26:05So, it's been fixed?
00:26:10We had to restart the system.
00:26:13System reboot.
00:26:14I see.
00:26:15It asked for an admin code.
00:26:17Why didn't you call me?
00:26:19I tried to, but it didn't go through.
00:26:22Signal down there.
00:26:24We got the code.
00:26:27You did?
00:26:29How?
00:26:30Luckily,
00:26:33Julie was there.
00:26:35So, you've seen it.
00:26:40Fiona?
00:26:45Yeah.
00:26:50Fiona?
00:26:54Yeah.
00:26:56Mabel,
00:26:57I know you have a lot of questions.
00:27:00Actually,
00:27:01I found a lot of answers today.
00:27:03I thought I was lucky
00:27:08to have that job
00:27:12to work at the company,
00:27:15to be by your side,
00:27:18to enter a relationship
00:27:20with you or whatever that was.
00:27:23but it turns out
00:27:27I was just a replacement.
00:27:30A replacement
00:27:31for some sick,
00:27:32twisted obsession
00:27:33that you can't get over.
00:27:35I'm shadowing
00:27:35for a dead girlfriend.
00:27:39All those years.
00:27:42When you've been,
00:27:43you're fucking a goat.
00:27:46Enough!
00:27:46Don't speak.
00:27:50Don't use that.
00:27:51Dead?
00:27:52Ghost?
00:27:54That's the reality of it,
00:27:56Jonathan.
00:27:56She is both.
00:28:04I'm Mabel Lawrence.
00:28:05I'm not
00:28:07I'm not your dead girlfriend.
00:28:11I'm not Fiona.
00:28:19You're right.
00:28:21You're not her.
00:28:24Nobody is.
00:28:25I've submitted my
00:28:36resignation.
00:28:39Thank you
00:28:40for the opportunity.
00:28:42Years ago,
00:28:42I learned a lot.
00:28:46Bye,
00:28:47Mr. Whiteford.
00:28:47Bye.
00:28:48Bye.
00:28:49Bye.
00:28:49Bye.
00:28:49Bye.
00:28:49Bye.
00:28:50Bye.
00:28:51Bye.
00:28:51Bye.
00:28:52Bye.
00:28:52Bye.
00:28:52Bye.
00:28:52Bye.
00:28:52Bye.
00:28:53Bye.
00:28:53Bye.
00:28:53Bye.
00:28:53Bye.
00:28:54Bye.
00:28:55You said you were a friend
00:29:16of Mr. Morris's?
00:29:18A friend of his daughter,
00:29:18Mabel, actually.
00:29:19Ah, yes, Mabel.
00:29:21She's quite sweet and caring.
00:29:23Absolutely.
00:29:23She asked me to come check on Scott.
00:29:26How's his condition?
00:29:28He's well.
00:29:31With a little rest,
00:29:32he should recover fully.
00:29:34Good news.
00:29:36He's at Silver Pine Hospital.
00:29:50I knew you had it, Amy.
00:29:53Oh, Mrs. Whiteford,
00:29:54I was just...
00:29:55Spare me the excuses, Julie.
00:29:59I've seen what you're capable of.
00:30:02Years ago.
00:30:03Uh, Mrs. Whiteford,
00:30:13Mrs. Whiteford, there's been a misunderstanding.
00:30:14No, I would not.
00:30:15Julie, cut it.
00:30:19Fiona was sweet.
00:30:22But too naive for our world.
00:30:24Her innocence was a liability.
00:30:25I tried separating Jonathan and Fiona for years.
00:30:31But Jonathan was so invested.
00:30:33Even ignoring this family to pursue his little tech project,
00:30:37all encouraged by Fiona.
00:30:39Luckily, his project succeeded.
00:30:41But not without him taking down his father's legacy first.
00:30:46We could have been so much more influential,
00:30:48so powerful.
00:30:53But, just when I thought all was lost,
00:30:56Fiona was out of the picture.
00:30:59Her death was no coincidence, Julie.
00:31:02God plays no favors.
00:31:04I see your hand in her car accident.
00:31:06How long have you known?
00:31:11Oh, George.
00:31:13I've known from the start.
00:31:19What happened?
00:31:21He's...
00:31:22His dead clay just caught up to him.
00:31:25Oh, you okay?
00:31:26Prepare for the worst.
00:31:27He's lost a lot of blood.
00:31:30How do you think...
00:31:31Someone must have tipped him off.
00:31:32We're investigating.
00:31:33We'll do our best to locate his attackers.
00:31:34I've warned you.
00:31:42It's Barbara Whiteford.
00:31:44The Barbara Whiteford, Queen of Manhattan?
00:31:46She's after my father.
00:31:48That's a serious accusation, ma'am.
00:31:50Respectfully, your father's not significant enough for her to wait.
00:31:53You don't understand.
00:31:54I got too close to her son, and she told me...
00:31:57Please, calm down.
00:31:58No, you don't understand.
00:32:00Please, please, Miss Morris.
00:32:03Unfortunately, we couldn't save your father.
00:32:05He passed away.
00:32:10No.
00:32:11No!
00:32:13What?
00:32:14No!
00:32:19No!
00:32:20No!
00:32:20No!
00:32:21I don't want to know what's going on.
00:32:23Okay.
00:32:24I don't want to know what's going on.
00:32:38Mom.
00:32:41After you left, Dad was never the same.
00:32:44When you left us, I lost you.
00:32:58I always thought it would get better.
00:33:05But it did.
00:33:09I'm sorry.
00:33:10I feel like a nobody.
00:33:17I feel...
00:33:19I feel that everything.
00:33:29Leave me alone.
00:33:31Do you have food from your favorite place?
00:33:43No.
00:33:45You don't have to talk to me, but...
00:33:48Please eat something.
00:33:49Well, I can't eat all that food by myself.
00:34:04I'm only going to ask you once, and I'll leave you be.
00:34:08But are you okay?
00:34:10Do you want to talk about it?
00:34:11I'm managing.
00:34:13Food helped.
00:34:17You don't have to smile if you don't want to.
00:34:19So you don't feel vulnerable.
00:34:21We all have our moments.
00:34:23It's just...
00:34:25It's been incredibly hard.
00:34:26I get it.
00:34:27And I'm sorry you're going through all of this.
00:34:29I've lost a loved one, too.
00:34:30Great.
00:34:31Do you have a dead girlfriend, also?
00:34:32A dead girlfriend?
00:34:33We...
00:34:35We knew about Jonathan and Fiona.
00:34:37So you knew.
00:34:38You knew all of a sudden.
00:34:40But you two are completely different.
00:34:42We know.
00:34:44We know.
00:34:46We know.
00:34:47We know.
00:34:48We know.
00:34:49We know.
00:34:50We know.
00:34:51We know.
00:34:52We know.
00:34:53We know.
00:34:54We know.
00:34:55We know.
00:34:57I didn't know I was a lover.
00:35:01It was my mother I lost.
00:35:05I am sorry.
00:35:07It's okay.
00:35:10This whole week is just like...
00:35:13Everything...
00:35:15Feels so pointless.
00:35:17That's a natural feeling to have.
00:35:19I used to mock...
00:35:21Existentialism.
00:35:23I get it now.
00:35:25I love how intelligent you sound.
00:35:26Even now.
00:35:28I just don't...
00:35:30No, seriously.
00:35:32Modern day Socrates.
00:35:35Thank you, Ryan.
00:35:36For the food.
00:35:37And the talk.
00:35:38Less of the food.
00:35:39Still so addictive.
00:35:40But they definitely put drugs in it.
00:35:42Yeah.
00:35:43Like that.
00:35:44Hey, if...
00:35:45You need anything.
00:35:46Just call me.
00:35:47I won't.
00:35:48I think I just need some time to think things over.
00:35:49Have you considered your next steps?
00:35:50Not sure.
00:35:51Quit my job.
00:35:52Settled the debts.
00:35:53Now the world's just kind of open to me.
00:35:54Strange.
00:35:55Yeah.
00:35:56Well, there's a spot for you and Nova Tech.
00:35:57You sure?
00:35:58About me leading?
00:35:59You're the best one to lead it.
00:36:00Come on.
00:36:01Just give it a shot.
00:36:02I'll think about it.
00:36:03Seriously.
00:36:04I'll think about it.
00:36:05Just a bit.
00:36:06Just a bit.
00:36:07Okay.
00:36:08You know what?
00:36:09undvereats?
00:36:10Or...?
00:36:11I get him.
00:36:12Just a little together.
00:36:13No, of course.
00:36:14Just a little step.
00:36:15Yeah.
00:36:16Well, there's a spot for you and Nova Tech.
00:36:19Sure?
00:36:19About me leading?
00:36:21If you're the best one to lead it, come on, just give it a shot.
00:36:24I'll think about it.
00:36:25Seriously.
00:36:26That's all I can ask.
00:36:27ask. Mabel, are you doing okay? Why are you here? Mabel, are you doing okay? Why are
00:36:48you here? I saw what happened on the news. You were worried? Save it, it's none of your
00:36:55business. Mabel, please, let me just... I'm done. Listening, Jonathan. I spent so much time
00:37:02on something that wasn't real. And now I finally know the truth. I thought what we had was real,
00:37:13but I was just a pill for a wound that won't heal.
00:37:16I truly loved you, Jonathan. Don't come looking for me again. Lead me on. It's my final request.
00:37:36And this is the upstairs division. I can see you. What do you think?
00:37:49I love it. It's so lively. That's the goal. Hey, I'm in, but I have one condition. I'd like
00:37:57to work from a different city. Why's that? Well, I hear you're expanding to Tokyo. That's
00:38:03where you're headed, right? Someone's been doing her homework. And for a new market,
00:38:07it's important to have someone you trust by your side. I'm listening.
00:38:12Welcome to the TV. What an honor, Captain. Let me show you around.
00:38:21Sir? You have a meeting with the creative team in 15 minutes?
00:38:34Right. Um, bring me their pitch deck and latest progress report. And see if Mabel is ready
00:38:41for the creative discussion. Sir? Mabel doesn't work here anymore. I can get someone else to help
00:38:47her. She can't be replaced. There's no one like her. Why don't you start in the living room?
00:39:07What? What, what, what is happening here? We're just doing our job, sir. Please don't interrupt.
00:39:18Where, where are these going? They're going to the donation. They don't already left.
00:39:22Get out. Then, you left.
00:39:37You do not want to talk.
00:39:41You haven't been this way since Fiona. Why are you this upset over a pleading affair? Just
00:39:46move on. Find something. Mabel wasn't some pleading affair.
00:39:48Oh, she's clearly just a fill-in for Fiona. Nothing more than her look-alike.
00:39:53She's different. Funny. Professional. She makes me feel good about myself. She's,
00:39:58she's Mabel. And I actually like her for who she is.
00:40:10What about our engagement?
00:40:11Julie. When Fiona left, I was lost. I would never marry you having some fleeting feelings
00:40:23for her. That's, that's not right for either one of us. No, no. You don't determine that.
00:40:27Jonathan, I have dreamed of our marriage since the day we met. I sacrificed so much for that
00:40:31dream. I lost everything.
00:40:32What do you mean by that?
00:40:36Nothing. Nothing. I just, I can't seem to see you, Mike.
00:40:41What are you hiding?
00:40:41Nothing. I was just saying that-
00:40:44Did you have something to do with Mabel leaving?
00:40:45I don't have to answer your accusations. You're delusional-
00:40:48Did you?
00:40:48Yeah. This is silly. Baby, we'll talk about this tomorrow, okay?
00:41:02Just sleep this off and we'll talk tomorrow.
00:41:15Alright, give me the visitor's list for Mabel's father's death.
00:41:18Surgeon.
00:41:23The hospital's footage was erased, but a doctor remembers a young woman claiming to be Mabel's
00:41:28friend.
00:41:29A young woman? Yes, sir. A detailed description matches Miss Miller.
00:41:37Julie.
00:41:38Should I contact Miss Miller for confirmation?
00:41:40No, don't bother. Any news on Mabel's location?
00:41:43She just purchased tickets for many destinations.
00:41:50Where is she currently?
00:41:52Last known location.
00:41:54She's in a cab to JFK airport.
00:41:56Get the car ready.
00:41:56Now.
00:41:56I'm going to pull over. Right here. Stop.
00:42:09Mabel!
00:42:10Are you insane?
00:42:11What the hell are you doing?
00:42:12Mabel, where are you?
00:42:19I'm telling you, you're going to go.
00:42:25Goodbye.
00:42:26Wait, Mabel, Mabel.
00:42:27Mabel, what?
00:42:27Did you know about Mabel's departure?
00:42:38I know she left with Ryan Anderson, the servant's son.
00:42:42It's a good match. You should be happy for her.
00:42:44Were you part of this?
00:42:45Jonathan, Mabel made her own choice. No one pushed her.
00:42:53She has her life. We have ours.
00:42:56They don't intersect.
00:42:59Remember, you have responsibilities. The wedding's next month.
00:43:02I won't marry Julie.
00:43:04I won't be a pawn in your plan.
00:43:07I love Mabel.
00:43:10She's the one I want.
00:43:11She is merely a stand-in for Fiona.
00:43:13Not!
00:43:14I know it's already too late,
00:43:18but my feelings for her are real.
00:43:23I'll wait for her.
00:43:25I'll wait as long as it takes,
00:43:26because this is my life!
00:43:30And I'll spend it with Mabel.
00:43:44Mabel, turn it off.
00:43:54Mabel!
00:43:57Okay, you lazy bone.
00:43:59Come on.
00:44:00There's a meeting to attend to.
00:44:02Programmed you too well, wasn't I?
00:44:04I learned it myself.
00:44:07Exactly.
00:44:08That's why I said I programmed you too well.
00:44:10Show off.
00:44:24The driver is ten minutes away.
00:44:27Put some clothes on.
00:44:33You can't see me, right?
00:44:35Don't need to.
00:44:37I know you too well.
00:44:39Thank you, Mark number.
00:44:40Heard that.
00:44:43Incoming call from Mrs. Whiteford.
00:44:47Put her through.
00:44:49Mr. Whiteford, it's urgent.
00:44:51Please come home.
00:44:52Your mother's condition is critical.
00:45:04What happened?
00:45:05She suffered a stroke last night.
00:45:08Mom.
00:45:09Mom.
00:45:11Should we have a red?
00:45:12She's all right for now.
00:45:14But she might not speak again.
00:45:16What?
00:45:17A severe stroke, Mr. Whiteford.
00:45:20She's lucky she's even breathing.
00:45:24Sweet.
00:45:27Hi.
00:45:27What can I do to help?
00:45:32You can keep her calm.
00:45:34She's a fighter.
00:45:35She might be able to pull through.
00:45:38You see me?
00:45:41I'm here.
00:45:44Mabel, this is my father here I've been telling you about.
00:45:47Mabel, it's such a pleasure.
00:45:49Ryan's told me so much about you.
00:45:51Likewise.
00:45:52He's going on about those unique seeds that you've been planting.
00:45:57He's kind of nerdy sometimes.
00:45:59Oh, so nerdy.
00:46:00Mabel.
00:46:00Mabel.
00:46:05Hey.
00:46:14When did you return?
00:46:16Mabel, we can leave with your...
00:46:17No need.
00:46:19We're just chatting.
00:46:21Jonathan, it's nice to see you.
00:46:23I was just looking for you.
00:46:25You deliberately ignored my request.
00:46:27I asked to be left alone.
00:46:29Mabel, I just wanted to sort things out.
00:46:30Everything was sorted.
00:46:32It's all behind us.
00:46:37Um, hey, Jonathan.
00:46:39They're just here to visit an old man.
00:46:41Isn't that okay?
00:46:42Dad, this is your home as well.
00:46:44We don't need his approval.
00:46:45Actually, Jack, I was thinking you should come live in the city with us.
00:46:49I see you two.
00:46:50You live together, huh?
00:46:52It's not your business.
00:46:53Mabel, I just wanted to...
00:46:55I see you haven't changed.
00:46:59Sorry, Jack.
00:47:00I just remembered I have a phone call that I need to make.
00:47:05Mabel.
00:47:05We can talk about it, you know?
00:47:13About the product launch?
00:47:14My only concern is the interface.
00:47:16It's not user-friendly enough.
00:47:17Mabel, it's okay to be upset with Jonathan.
00:47:20No need to hide it.
00:47:21He's just a competitor now.
00:47:23Speaking of which, the new app at White for Tech is dominating the charts.
00:47:26We should look into that.
00:47:28Can I ask you something?
00:47:29If you're going to say something irritating, I'm not interested.
00:47:33Do you still have feelings for Jonathan?
00:47:35You broke my heart once.
00:47:41I'm not going to give him a second chance.
00:47:53This is Mabel.
00:47:54Head of Creators.
00:47:56Nice to meet the team.
00:47:57We've heard many great things about you, Mabel.
00:48:00Your products are so exciting.
00:48:02We always try our very best to insure.
00:48:06Good morning.
00:48:08What are you doing here?
00:48:10Mr. Whiteford.
00:48:11Welcome.
00:48:13Mr. Whiteford's our angel investor.
00:48:16He's shown great interest in this product and requested to join us at this meeting.
00:48:21I hope that isn't a problem, Mr. Anderson.
00:48:23Considering the product is still under testing, we typically limit our attendance.
00:48:28He's welcome to join.
00:48:31I'm intrigued to hear Mr. Whiteford's thoughts.
00:48:34His insight is invaluable.
00:48:38You're going to have to take a seat.
00:48:38I love being part of the creative process.
00:48:40What an honor, Mr. Whiteford.
00:48:49At the end of the day, our product is really exciting.
00:48:52And thank you all so much for spending your afternoon with us at Nova Tech.
00:48:56We are thrilled to be doing business with you.
00:48:58Well, this sounds like a game-changer.
00:49:04Congratulations, Mr. Whiteford.
00:49:08A few thoughts.
00:49:11It's good.
00:49:13Surely, as a leader in this industry, you have more to offer than good.
00:49:18I don't think it's my place to say more.
00:49:20If we always play it safe, we'll never achieve perfection.
00:49:23You've grown a lot, Mabel.
00:49:29And it's a strong product, but not yet a market leader.
00:49:34But there's potential.
00:49:36Your body needs more clarity.
00:49:38It's affecting your overall product.
00:49:41You need to improve the interactive system.
00:49:43It's far too rapidly.
00:49:44And the interface needs to be more user-friendly than you notice.
00:49:47But, overall, truly, truly, well done.
00:49:55Proud of you.
00:49:57Professional boundaries, Mr. Whiteford.
00:50:00Sorry.
00:50:01I sometimes get carried away with talented teens.
00:50:08Well then, let's curl some numbers, shall we?
00:50:11Yes.
00:50:12We look now five-year-wise.
00:50:13Yes.
00:50:17Hey.
00:50:22Great job on today's pitch.
00:50:24It was a team effort.
00:50:25You still have some work to do, though?
00:50:27Looking forward to launching it.
00:50:29But then, if it's non-stop, we're ready to get some rest.
00:50:33Well, you still had time to find the handsome lawyer.
00:50:37Wait.
00:50:39You knew about it.
00:50:40Ryan, you are the only guy who hasn't made a pass on me.
00:50:43I had my suspicions.
00:50:44I thought Barbara set us up for that reason, but she's clueless.
00:50:49But still hoping for a wedding.
00:50:53Um, I'll see you tomorrow.
00:50:55Absolutely.
00:50:56And hey, if you knew anything, especially about Jonathan, just ask.
00:51:01That is all behind me.
00:51:02Don't worry.
00:51:03Stalking now, Mr. Whiteford?
00:51:25Just a coincidence, Miss Morris.
00:51:27See, um, I live here too.
00:51:29Uh, yeah, right.
00:51:35Hey.
00:51:48Can you give me some space?
00:51:52It's really nice, please.
00:51:53When did you move here?
00:51:59Because I was under the impression that this space has one.
00:52:04It has two.
00:52:13Oh, what a coincidence.
00:52:16I live here too.
00:52:17Oh, guess what?
00:52:19My passcode is still Fiona.
00:52:22Is his passcode still Fiona?
00:52:24Why do you care?
00:52:29Um.
00:52:35In the lights, Mabel.
00:52:37That's an early night.
00:52:38Rough day?
00:52:39Actually, it's one of the best days of my life.
00:52:43Really?
00:52:43What happened?
00:52:47Good night, Mabel.
00:52:57Need a ride with some Morris?
00:53:00No, thank you.
00:53:01I prefer to walk.
00:53:02You kidding?
00:53:03It's about three.
00:53:04Come on.
00:53:13You did?
00:53:18You seemed really occupied yesterday.
00:53:21Could you yell with a quiet ride?
00:53:25You know, I have a tip for your product, if you're interested.
00:53:32Okay, fine.
00:53:33What do you think?
00:53:34The interface needs a better visual hierarchy.
00:53:36Uniform font size is causing confusion, but a little variation will help.
00:53:41You're right.
00:53:44We wanted simplicity, but maybe too much so.
00:53:48It's a good approach, but you need to experiment a bit.
00:53:52You've all of a sudden a rule breaker, Mabel.
00:53:53I have a word like me.
00:54:01Mr. Weiss, you need to come home.
00:54:04Your mother's on a...
00:54:05Your mother's on a...
00:54:05Her condition worsened.
00:54:20We thought it would be best if you were here.
00:54:25Is there anything that could be done for her?
00:54:28We've done everything.
00:54:32Her vitals are going quickly.
00:54:34I'm so sorry.
00:54:35I'm going to get some medicine, okay?
00:54:42Mom, hey.
00:54:45I'm right here.
00:54:45I'm sorry.
00:54:49Anything? Is there anything we can give for you?
00:54:53But I'm leaving you.
00:54:55No, no.
00:54:58You're fine. We're taking good care of you.
00:55:00My son.
00:55:03I'm truly sorry.
00:55:11You're the best mom I could ever have.
00:55:15I want you to be happy.
00:55:20I am happy.
00:55:22I'm happy.
00:55:25After Fiona,
00:55:27I saw how you suffered.
00:55:29I regret so many.
00:55:34I overlooked things
00:55:38after Fiona's death.
00:55:42And you...
00:55:43You've changed so much.
00:55:47What do you mean, Mom?
00:55:48Just promise me you'll be happy.
00:55:51With Mabel or anyone else.
00:55:54I promise.
00:55:56I promise.
00:56:02That it's time you learned the truth.
00:56:05About everything.
00:56:13Oh, my God.
00:56:15It's official.
00:56:15Apple Lightfoot just died.
00:56:17Really?
00:56:18What happened?
00:56:19It was 7.
00:56:21John Blackford confirmed it.
00:56:24Are you okay?
00:56:26Um...
00:56:28I have to...
00:56:29Go.
00:56:30Take the day off.
00:56:30Facial recognition successful.
00:56:53Welcome, Mabel.
00:56:55Facial recognition.
00:56:56I have to...
00:56:57It's open.
00:57:07Why are you here?
00:57:14I saw the news.
00:57:16Are you okay?
00:57:18I'll manage.
00:57:20Do you need anything?
00:57:21Do you want to talk?
00:57:22Why are you here?
00:57:23Is it because you care?
00:57:27I understand what it feels like to lose a parent.
00:57:29But that's not why you're here.
00:57:32You care.
00:57:34Don't you?
00:57:35I was concerned.
00:57:37But if you're fine, I should go.
00:57:39Please don't go.
00:57:41Please.
00:57:41Have you been drinking?
00:57:43Jonathan, this is so inappropriate.
00:57:45Mabel, Mabel, listen.
00:57:46Listening.
00:57:48Mabel signing in.
00:57:49How can I help, Jonathan?
00:57:50What is that?
00:58:00Hello, Miss Morris.
00:58:02I'm Mabel.
00:58:03An AI modeled after you.
00:58:05Mabel!
00:58:05Mabel, stop!
00:58:08Wait.
00:58:09Wait.
00:58:14I'm sorry.
00:58:17I'm sorry.
00:58:17This was my way of coping with your absence.
00:58:20It was never meant to be discovered like this.
00:58:23Jonathan.
00:58:26This is too much.
00:58:31This isn't just obsession.
00:58:33This is unhealthy.
00:58:33I know.
00:58:34It's wrong.
00:58:38Please.
00:58:39I'll never bother you again.
00:58:40Just give me some time and I'll go.
00:58:42I swear.
00:58:43Are you okay, Jonathan?
00:58:46You're right about the rain.
00:59:08You're right about the rain.
00:59:08Outstanding, Mabel.
00:59:29This product will be a hit.
00:59:32Um, you know Mr. Whiteford today?
00:59:35Uh, um, yes.
00:59:38He wished to come, but couldn't make it.
00:59:40Uh, he was caught up with family matters.
00:59:43Did you hear about his mother?
00:59:48Morning.
00:59:51I'm here to announce the passing of my mother, Barbara Whiteford, due to a severe stroke.
00:59:59It's a challenging time for our family, and we appreciate your thoughts.
01:00:04While we mourn, I also need to address serious matters involving Julie Miller, a close associate
01:00:11of our family.
01:00:13Years ago, Fiona Miller, my then-girlfriend, and I developed a system named after her that
01:00:19laid the foundation for Whiteford Tech.
01:00:21Her untimely death, I've recently learned, was orchestrated by her sister, Julie Miller,
01:00:29with my mother's knowledge.
01:00:32Moreover, Julie Miller has been involved in other immoral acts.
01:00:39She hired gang members for violent acts and caused deep harm to someone close to my heart.
01:00:44I'm not seeking forgiveness for the family.
01:00:49I only want justice.
01:00:51Julie now stands trial for her actions.
01:00:54The Fiona system, pivotal in uncovering these truths, will now be decommissioned and made publicly
01:01:02available for the advancement of technology.
01:01:05It's time for fresh perspectives.
01:01:08I'm stepping down.
01:01:09I'm stepping down.
01:01:39We are owners of the largest tech company in the country.
01:02:03Hey, Jonathan.
01:02:06What's up?
01:02:06Hey, why did you leave the company and all of your shares?
01:02:13What the-
01:02:14Facial recognition successful.
01:02:20Welcome, Mabel.
01:02:21Where is Jonathan?
01:02:35He has moved away.
01:02:38He is, I quote, giving you space.
01:02:43Where?
01:02:43I'm afraid I don't know.
01:02:50He really left everything behind.
01:02:54He said it would be for the best.
01:02:57Maybe he's right.
01:03:13Maybe it is for the best.
01:03:15Maybe.
01:03:15I found the programmer that you've been looking for.
01:03:25Here's everything on him.
01:03:27The best we could dig up.
01:03:29Hey, we need to learn to take some more breaks.
01:03:33Send them to go way too high for the rest of us.
01:03:35No, no, no, no.
01:03:39I'll slow down once we've got more skilled people like this one working for us.
01:03:43Facial recognition successful.
01:04:05Welcome, Mabel.
01:04:17Nice work, Jonathan.
01:04:20Mabel.
01:04:21Hi.
01:04:23How did you-
01:04:25Weeks ago, we discovered a mysterious programmer.
01:04:29Their work without standing.
01:04:30I just had to know who it was.
01:04:32Sorry.
01:04:36I, uh, got bored.
01:04:39I wanted something good to do.
01:04:41The coding gave you away.
01:04:43It felt familiar.
01:04:44Like you.
01:04:46The way the numbers and the figures went together, I don't know, it kind of felt romantic.
01:04:52Why did you leave everything behind?
01:04:55Don't you miss it?
01:04:58I wanted to fix my mistakes.
01:05:00To help you.
01:05:04I want you to be happy, Mabel.
01:05:08You left without saying goodbye.
01:05:10I know.
01:05:11I'm sorry.
01:05:14I knew you wouldn't forgive me if I left.
01:05:16I needed to distance myself from you.
01:05:18It was the only way I knew I'd forgive you.
01:05:21Have you succeeded?
01:05:22Have you succeeded?
01:05:26I'm good.
01:05:26I'm good.
01:05:26I'm good.
01:05:30I'm good.
01:05:32Oh, wait.
01:05:36By Novatec, we offer competitive pay and flexible schedules with remote opportunities and free meals.
01:05:46Sounds good.
01:05:47There's more.
01:05:49We have benefits, like pending leave and child care support.
01:05:54And fun company events.
01:05:58So, Jonathan Whiteford, how would you feel about joining Novatec?
01:06:05As an executive?
01:06:07No, as staff.
01:06:08But I would be thrilled to have you as a senior programmer.
01:06:11Pretty good offer.
01:06:14Pretty good offer.
01:06:15Also, there are no restrictions about relationships with colleagues.
01:06:25So, if you happen to like someone at work, it's cool.
01:06:31That's good to know.
01:06:32I'm good.
01:06:33I'm good.
01:06:34I'm good.
01:06:35I'm good.
01:06:36I'm good.
01:06:37I'm good.
01:06:38I'm good.
01:06:39I'm good.
01:06:40I'm good.
01:06:41I'm good.
01:06:42I'm good.
01:06:43I'm good.
01:06:44I'm good.
01:06:45I'm good.
01:06:46I'm good.
01:06:47I'm good.

01:06:52I'm good.
01:06:53I'm good.
01:06:54I'm good.
01:06:55I'm good.
01:06:56I'm good.
01:06:57I'm good.
01:06:58I'm good.
01:06:59I'm good.
01:07:00I'm good.
