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

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