She's The Undercover Boss
Transcript
00:00Ms. Pearson, it is a pleasure.
00:05You know, GQ has been wanting to profile your company for quite some time now.
00:08The pleasure is all mine, I assure you that.
00:12You know, I have to commend you.
00:13I mean, Dyad's assistant matchmaking record is near perfect.
00:18I mean, save for one pesky CEO.
00:21Financial phenom Jet Abrams gave an interview recently expressing his dissatisfaction.
00:30Dyad's algorithm is a bunch of pseudoscience bullshits.
00:33Every assistant they've sent me has become...
00:35Completely incompetent and a total waste of time.
00:39I saw.
00:42Now, are you at all concerned that this kind of publicity will affect your business?
00:48Not at all.
00:50While Mr. Abrams has proven to be a particularly exacting client,
00:56I have no doubt we'll be able to imagine.
01:00In fact, I do have a new angle for your profile, Ms. Carter.
01:12I will personally be going undercover as his assistant
01:16to find out exactly what it is the biggest asshole in America needs in a right hand.
01:22Jed Abrams will meet his match.
01:27Can you quote me on that?
01:31You told GQ what?
01:34Oh, come on.
01:35Imagine the headline.
01:38Corporate Cupid tames Titans, matching the unmatchable.
01:41More like delusional CEO, Tank's own company, playing pretend.
01:47You seriously want to attempt some secret spy mission and pretend to be his assistant to gather intel?
01:53All while trying to run your own company.
01:56I mean, as your assistant, and more importantly, as your friend, I'm telling you, don't do this.
02:01I know he's an asshole, and I know you want revenge, but...
02:04That's not what this is about.
02:07This is about keeping Dyad's records unimpeachable.
02:10I mean, if Jed Abrams looks like an asshole in the process, that's just cherry on top.
02:15Dyad's algorithm is a bunch of pseudoscience bullshit.
02:19Ooh, honey, I don't think anything can make that man look bad.
02:24Look, I know you've been married to the job ever since Grey the Goblin,
02:29but even a workaholic like you has to appreciate a man like that.
02:34Not my type.
02:35Besides, you know I don't date my clients.
02:38Yeah, but what about your boss?
02:43You little bitch.
02:45Mr. Abrams?
03:00Good morning.
03:01I have your coffee.
03:04Must be my new assistant.
03:09Uh, yeah.
03:11Uh, Arya Riley.
03:13Pleasure to...
03:15Meet you.
03:22You know, when I said I'd give Dyad one last chance,
03:25I expected something a little more, uh...
03:29Impressive.
03:31Supposed to get extra points for nice packaging, huh?
03:34Ms. Riley, I need someone I could trust.
03:37Someone I could count on.
03:38Someone who's not going to bail when I demand perfection.
03:45Someone who's not going to fuck up my coffee order.
03:48What's up?
03:49You my someone?
03:52Yes, I am.
03:55Good.
03:55Now clean this shit up.
03:57Now clean this shit up.
03:57Go change.
03:58And, uh, a lot of those reports on my desk.
04:00Oh!
04:02This is strike one.
04:03Understand?
04:05Good.
04:05You fucking prick.
04:22Ah!
04:24Whew.
04:25Okay.
04:27It's just a few weeks.
04:30Gather intel.
04:32Make a match.
04:34Free press and GQ.
04:36Everybody wins.
04:38I could do this.
04:40I could do this.
04:41Oh, my God.
04:45What the hell are you doing in here?
04:46I don't want everyone to see me.
05:02You always have extra shirts in your office?
05:05Sometimes things get a bit messy.
05:11Strike two, Mr. Riley.
05:33You must have a new record.
05:35Fired by lunch.
05:36Hmm.
05:41So much for another pre-face.
05:47I'm surprised anyone's lasted this long.
05:52You flirt with all your assistants.
05:56Uh, uh, Mr. Abrams, I, I, I'm sorry, I didn't...
06:01Stop.
06:05Every submission that Diane has sent to me was sketched at this.
06:11Um, not you, though.
06:17Clear your schedule.
06:18You're working on a party tonight.
06:20Lots of important potential clients, so do your homework.
06:25And no more stains.
06:28All right?
06:30I'll see you later.
06:31So, he clearly needs someone that can go toe-to-toe with him.
06:43Someone who will not put up with his bullshit.
06:45I mean, this guy has major control and trust issues.
06:49You should have heard him.
06:50He was like, someone who's not gonna bail.
06:54Someone he can rely on.
06:55Unlike you.
06:59Excuse me?
07:01You don't think he's gonna be pissed when he finds out you're lying?
07:05That you betrayed him?
07:08Well, I...
07:09By the time he finds out, he'll already be matched.
07:15All's fair in business.
07:16That's...
07:16That's not how that saying goes.
07:25This.
07:30And...
07:30This.
07:32Glenn.
07:32I'm trying to get into his business.
07:35Not his pants.
07:37Aria?
07:37He said to himself.
07:39He's not impressed.
07:42Yet.
07:42He's not impressed.
08:12You're late.
08:20Fashionably.
08:22Come on.
08:23Let's make some rounds.
08:24Okay.
08:25Oh, first.
08:27Remind me.
08:28Who is he?
08:31Um...
08:31Some...
08:32Old white guy with a bad tux?
08:38You're not very good at this, are you?
08:39I thought I told you to do your homework.
08:41Oh, don't blame me for your bad memory.
08:44It's not leadership.
08:48Fair enough.
08:49Hmm.
08:50Ah, fuck.
08:53What?
08:54Jet.
08:55Are you avoiding your fiancƩ?
08:59I believe you're my ex-fiancƩ.
09:01No.
09:01For now.
09:03Not the first time we've called it off.
09:05Oh, but it is the last.
09:07Think I learned my lesson when you skipped our engagement party?
09:09With my best man?
09:10That was a momentary lapse in judgment, that's all.
09:21Lena Taft.
09:23This would be Abrams.
09:24And you are cosplaying as a Las Vegas showgirl.
09:34Aria Riley.
09:35Mr. Abrams' assistant.
09:38Speaking of, Keir Hamlin is at the bar.
09:40You should go talk to him before his third dirty martini.
09:43Hmm.
09:44Yeah.
09:45If you'll excuse him.
09:46Hmm.
09:48How's that for a reminder?
09:51Hmm.
09:51Give it up, honey.
09:54He'll never be interested in the likes of you.
09:57You're the help, for God's sake.
10:00He'll never fit in his world.
10:08Great!
10:10What the hell are you doing here?
10:12Uh, Abrams donates to the Philharmonic, so we're planning as a favor.
10:16You, are you here with Diane, or looking for clients?
10:20Sort of.
10:21Jesus, Ari, talk about the silent treatment.
10:26I've been trying to get in touch with you for weeks.
10:29Why haven't you answered my calls?
10:32Maybe because you literally stole from me.
10:34You wrote yourself a check for my checkbook.
10:36I told you I would pay you back.
10:38It was 10K.
10:40It's not exactly an IOU situation.
10:43Always playing the victim.
10:44We're going to get you a therapist for that.
10:48After we get you therapy for your gambling addiction?
10:51How about that?
10:52That is all behind me now.
10:55Hey, come on.
10:56Come on, baby.
10:58I've missed you.
11:00I know you miss me.
11:01Gray, it's over.
11:05I told you.
11:07I don't want to give up on us.
11:11Is this man bothering you, Ariya?
11:12Is he one of your clients?
11:18No.
11:19I'm actually a her boyfriend.
11:23Jet, sweetheart, this is my ex, Gray.
11:28Right.
11:29I suppose I should thank you.
11:30For fucking up.
11:35If it wasn't for that,
11:37you've never found the woman of my dreams.
11:42I don't believe it.
11:45This guy is in your tongue.
11:47Since when do you go for Suzy?
11:49You always said you don't shit where you eat.
11:53I...
11:54I...
11:55I don't know.
12:14Okay.
12:16You hate PDA.
12:18Nah.
12:19Maybe with you, buddy.
12:22Good luck with this one.
12:23Work always comes first with Aria.
12:29You'll see.
12:33Fuck.
12:35I am so sorry.
12:37I...
12:37That will never happen again.
12:39No, no.
12:39You're good.
12:41You helped me with my ex.
12:44I guess we're even now.
12:45Mm-hmm.
12:47How about a drink?
12:49Yeah.
12:49Yeah.
12:50Let's go.
12:53I've tried many times, but it's just, huh?
13:08Want to go sit down?
13:09Yeah.
13:10All right, let's go.
13:10Let's go.
13:12Oh, I am such a klutz.
13:18Probably did you a favor, though.
13:20Cheap thing like that belongs in the trash.
13:21I'd be careful what you call cheap with a nose like that.
13:24Excuse me?
13:25What the hell is your problem, Lena?
13:29Go.
13:31Go.
13:32Come on.
13:33Go, sit down.
13:44Can I see?
13:54Jess is ripped.
13:54Does that hurt?
14:12No.
14:13It's just cold.
14:15Let me sit down.
14:43I should probably get you home.
14:47Yeah.
14:49Here.
14:50You take my car.
14:52Okay?
14:57I'm going to need you at the office early in the morning.
14:59You've got to set up for the meeting with Hamelin.
15:01I'm going to need a briefing doc of all the strategic angles.
15:06Can you handle that?
15:06It's a lot to ask of a cripple.
15:11Well, I have all the faith in the world.
15:17I'll see you in the morning, yeah?
15:21Okay.
15:22Get home safe.
15:24Thanks.
15:25Double shot, dry, almond milk, and a sprinkle of cinnamon.
15:54In the cup this time.
15:57Hey, I wanted to talk to you about what happened between us last night.
16:05That can't happen again.
16:08I mean, I can't.
16:10I crossed the line when I kissed you, and I'm your boss.
16:15No, no.
16:16I know it didn't mean anything.
16:18Oh.
16:18Um, it's my fault.
16:22Um, when I saw my ex, it just kind of rattled me.
16:26Right, yeah.
16:27I crossed the line when I put you in that position, so.
16:32Okay.
16:32I'm sorry.
16:36Um, I think, um, moving forward, we should just, uh, maintain some professional boundaries.
16:45Boundaries.
16:50I didn't say that it didn't mean anything.
16:52I don't mean to interrupt any business matters.
17:07Absolutely not.
17:08Cheer hamlin.
17:10Ready to finalize this deal?
17:12Only if you want to be a lot richer than you already are.
17:14Absolutely.
17:15Come on in.
17:15Have a seat.
17:16You look familiar to me.
17:23Do I know you from somewhere?
17:26Uh, I don't think so.
17:28Unless you saw my tumble at the party last night.
17:31No, that's not it.
17:33Ah, I just got it.
17:36You look exactly like this CEO.
17:41Oh.
17:41Hmm, a knockout if I've ever seen one.
17:48What did her company do?
17:49It was something with corporate matchmaking.
17:54Uh, diet?
17:55Right.
17:57That's where Arya came from.
18:00Hmm.
18:01What a funny coincidence.
18:03I haven't had the pleasure of meeting our CEO.
18:07Uncanny.
18:08Hmm.
18:08Well, gentlemen, should we get down to business and hammer out some deal points?
18:14Absolutely.
18:15Okay.
18:16Coffee, Mr. Handler?
18:17Hmm.
18:18Sweet and milky.
18:22Darling.
18:28Hmm.
18:31I thought you were fed up with Dyad.
18:33Yeah.
18:35Giving him one last chance.
18:37Hmm.
18:38You sly dog.
18:40I guess you were just holding out for the goods, huh?
18:44What do you say?
18:45We shit her the wealth?
18:47We could make her one of the deal points.
18:50She's mine.
18:52My assistant.
18:54Leave her alone.
18:56Hmm.
19:01Thank you, sweetheart.
19:03Hmm.
19:03The fuck was that?
19:09Get out.
19:11Excuse me?
19:12You heard me.
19:13I fucking warned you.
19:15Now get out.
19:17You're going to tank this deal and lose millions?
19:21For her?
19:23Good assistant's worth of weight in gold.
19:25We're through here.
19:26You really didn't have to do that.
19:40I've dealt with creeps way worse than that guy.
19:42Yeah, I know.
19:46I met your ex-boyfriend, remember?
19:48Should have had to deal with guys like that, though.
19:51Especially with me around.
19:52Hmm.
19:53So, I'm a good assistant, huh?
19:58Not some pseudoscience bullshit?
20:01So, look, I admit I was a bit harsh in that interview.
20:04A bit?
20:05And I can be difficult to work with at times.
20:08Mm-hmm.
20:09But I've learned from experience.
20:11People are generally disappointing.
20:18They leave when the going gets tough.
20:21Just weeding those people out early.
20:24Don't want to waste my time.
20:27But you, miss,
20:30are most definitely not a waste of my time.
20:34I guess I'm at my match.
20:37Mm-hmm.
20:37Um, well, do you need anything else from me?
20:48Besides losing you a million dollars?
20:53No.
20:54No?
20:57Okay.
20:59Okay.
21:04Um,
21:04Get back to work?
21:09Yeah.
21:10Yeah.
21:10Okay.
21:11Okay.
21:21Fuck me.
21:26Oh, God.
21:29Fuck me.
21:31That doesn't sound like appropriate office talk.
21:34Nothing screams classy like dropping the F-bomb.
21:39Oh,
21:40like fucking your fiancƩ's best friend.
21:42I didn't see you on the schedule today.
21:45Don't you know you have to go through me to get to him?
21:50He didn't tell you.
21:53Alistair Holdings is investing in my makeup company.
21:57Now be a dear
21:58and fetch me a latte
21:59while the adults talk business.
22:01What do you want, Lena?
22:24I just came by
22:26to discuss our little business venture.
22:28There's no hour or anything.
22:32We've been broken up for months.
22:35Well,
22:36like it or not,
22:37we have a contract, remember?
22:39Until you break it, remember?
22:43Baby.
22:44Baby.
22:45Baby.
22:47What has got you so
22:49stressed?
22:51Huh?
22:52Maybe I can help you relax.
22:59Hmm.
23:02Hmm.
23:04Excuse me.
23:06Uh, no, no, no.
23:07Stay.
23:10If you'd like to make an appointment,
23:11make it with Aria.
23:12Just like everyone else.
23:14I'm busy here, Lena.
23:15Of course.
23:16Reserve the jet tomorrow.
23:19Mr. Abrams and I
23:20will be flying into New York.
23:22Excuse me,
23:22I have to work, Lena.
23:23This is work.
23:26I want to open an office in New York
23:27and you want to do your due diligence,
23:29don't you?
23:32Make sure there's a couple bottles
23:34of Dom stocked.
23:36I want to celebrate our merger.
23:46Merger, huh?
23:58Jealous?
24:00No.
24:02I'm not.
24:04No.
24:05Don't worry about Lena.
24:07Forget her.
24:09I do need you to do something for me, though.
24:12Hmm?
24:16The contractors
24:22are coming for the kitchen remodel on Friday?
24:24Mm-hmm.
24:25I need you to go let them in.
24:27You could go over there after I leave.
24:30Maybe stay the night, if you want.
24:34And that's not crossing a professional boundary?
24:37Sleeping in your bed?
24:38I do have plenty of guest rooms, Miss Riley.
24:42But if you wanted to...
24:43No!
24:44I don't.
24:45I wasn't, um...
24:49Yeah, that would be fine.
24:50Hmm.
24:51Thank you, Mr. Abrams.
25:08So, let's hear it.
25:10What's it like working for the biggest asshole in America?
25:13Uh...
25:17You know, he's, um...
25:20He's not that bad.
25:25Miss Pearson, not that bad
25:27does not make for a great article.
25:30Not that bad
25:32means it's your company's fault,
25:34not his.
25:36And I'm sure that's not the angle
25:37you're looking for, right?
25:39Of course not.
25:43Hmm.
25:45You know Dyad is everything to me.
25:47Okay, I put my blood, sweat, and tears into this.
25:51I know.
25:52I've done my research.
25:55Which is why I'm surprised you're not taking the chance to defend it.
25:58I would give anything for this company.
26:04Well then,
26:05if I were you,
26:07I'd dig up some dirt on that man that's been slandering you in the press.
26:10Okay, damn.
26:24Major CEO goes...
26:28Oh, major CEO goals.
26:33Hello?
26:35Hey, boss.
26:36I've got a couple reports you need to sign.
26:38Should I bring them by
26:39to all dark and scary's office?
26:42Actually, I'm at his house right now.
26:46Beverly Hills.
26:47I'll send you the address.
26:47Oh, my God.
26:59It's like I stepped into 50 shades of gray.
27:03Ooh, is there a pleasure room?
27:05Don't touch anything.
27:08This man is a total control freak.
27:12Anything is out of place,
27:14he'll...
27:14Glenn!
27:16It's for you!
27:20And me.
27:23You deserve a break.
27:25And besides, he's a freaking billionaire.
27:27Is he really going to miss this...
27:29$2,000 bottle of champagne?
27:31My God.
27:32Holy shit!
27:36Wow.
27:37You're popular.
27:39It's gray.
27:40He's been harassing me ever since I told him that
27:42Jet was my boyfriend.
27:44You what?
27:46It was nothing.
27:47I ran into him at this party
27:48and he wouldn't stop bothering me.
27:51So...
27:51Jet played along.
27:54He actually...
27:55really saved my ass.
27:58And he...
27:59kissed me.
28:01What?
28:02Yeah.
28:03Okay.
28:03Well, it sounds like we have a lot of ground to cover.
28:09How about we do it out by that gorgeous pool?
28:12I brought bathing suits.
28:14How did you know that he...
28:15Duh.
28:16All billionaires have pools.
28:18Now come on.
28:19It's not like he's going to come home anytime soon.
28:21And then I was thinking drinks at this bar that my friend just opened.
28:29It's super chic and, like, impossible to get into.
28:32And then...
28:34I was thinking tomorrow we'd skip out to the Hamptons.
28:40Daddy's in Shanghai, so we'd have the whole place to ourselves.
28:43Lena.
28:44I told you.
28:46This is strictly a business trip.
28:47There is no office, is there?
29:00I just wanted us to get away like we used to.
29:03Without your obnoxious assistant poking around.
29:09Baby.
29:11You know this isn't over between us.
29:13I can't do this with you.
29:19I...
29:19I'm going home.
29:32Hey, but, like, was there tongue?
29:37Shut up.
29:39Bitch, I knew it.
29:41I knew you wanted to jump his bones.
29:44Okay.
29:45First of all, don't call your boss a bitch.
29:48Second of all, who says I want to jump his bones?
29:54Okay, fine.
29:55Fine.
29:57He's a total package.
29:58I mean, he's hot.
30:00He's rich.
30:01He's smart.
30:03Sounds like someone else I know.
30:05Maybe slightly less rich.
30:07Okay, but still.
30:09You two are like a match made in heaven.
30:11Yeah, right.
30:13I mean, and what happens when he finds out I've been lying to him this whole time?
30:17And besides, he's probably not even into me.
30:20He's in New York right now.
30:22With his ex-fiance.
30:24I mean, what am I supposed to do with that?
30:25Arya?
30:29Janet!
30:30Uh...
30:31Uh, what are you...
30:34Um...
30:34Who is this?
30:37Uh, oh, oh, Jew.
30:38Look at the time.
30:40I have to go feed my fish.
30:41Cat.
30:42Fish?
30:43My cat?
30:44My fish and my cat.
30:46Yeah, you should probably do that.
30:47I'm sorry.
30:53I didn't...
30:54Just have a half-naked man in my fucking house?
30:57I'm not gonna ask you again.
30:59Who is that?
31:02Wait.
31:05Are you...
31:06jealous?
31:07Of Glenn?
31:13But this is funny to you?
31:15Oh...
31:16No, I, um...
31:19He's my...
31:20Friend.
31:22Mm-hmm.
31:24And trust me, he's...
31:26Way more interested in you than he is me.
31:31Do you like this?
31:41Like, toying with me?
31:43Making me crazy?
31:47Running around my house...
31:50This little bikini?
31:57What do you care?
31:58Where's Lena?
31:59You think I give a shit about Lena?
32:03You think that I don't care?
32:07You don't think I'm going crazy seeing you every single day?
32:11Maintaining these professional boundaries?
32:18Ever since we kissed...
32:21I can't stop thinking about that night.
32:26These lips...
32:28You're my boss.
32:31You're my assistant.
32:33So assist me, Arya.
32:36Put me out of my misery.
32:37You're my boss.
32:37You're my assistant.
32:40So assist me, Arya.
32:42Put me out of my misery.
32:47Are you...
32:56Oh...
32:56I...
32:57I...
32:57You're so hot.
32:58So are you.
32:59Oh, you're so hot.
33:07So are you.
33:10I mean, you're burning up.
33:12Oh.
33:14Let's get you inside.
33:15Okay.
33:29You know, I've been dreaming of this.
33:37Yeah?
33:38Yeah.
33:39I dig up some dirt on that man that's been slandering you in the prince.
34:03Jed, I, um...
34:04What?
34:06I need to tell you something.
34:07No, tell me what.
34:09You need to tell me what.
34:14I need to tell you what.
34:23I need to tell you what.
34:33I need to tell you what.
34:36.
34:47Hungry?
34:49Wow.
34:52This place looks like a five-star hotel.
34:53I didn't know it had all the amenities, too.
34:55Mm-hmm.
34:57Mm.
34:58This looks delicious.
35:00Yeah, I'd say so.
35:01This looks good on you.
35:06Yeah?
35:07Yeah.
35:08But I also think that it'd look better off of you.
35:20Kitchen contractors.
35:21Mm-hmm.
35:22I'll take care of it, boss.
35:23I do, though.
35:31Gray, what the fuck were you doing here?
35:36Did you follow me?
35:37You still weren't answering me.
35:39I needed to talk to you.
35:41You weren't at Dyad.
35:42You weren't at your apartment.
35:44So I thought I'd try your boyfriend's office.
35:46Or should I say your bosses?
35:50Now, you can imagine my surprise when the receptionist corrected me.
35:55Now, I knew you didn't give a shit about this guy.
35:57Like I said, it's all about work for you.
36:01Question is, how's he gonna feel when he finds out about your double life?
36:08What do you want?
36:11Now you're asking the right questions.
36:14Ten thousand dollars.
36:17What?
36:18You heard me.
36:19Get me the money, or else this fucking guy finds out exactly who you really are.
36:23Huh?
36:25Blackmail, Gray.
36:26Really?
36:27That's fucking desperate.
36:28Even for you.
36:29What, are you gambling again?
36:31I'm not bailing you out this time.
36:33You have 24 hours.
36:43Fuck.
36:44Everything good?
36:45Yeah.
36:46Just...
36:47Contractor stuff.
36:48Hmm.
36:49Big promises and bigger delays.
36:50Yeah.
36:51Hmm.
36:52I should, uh...
36:53I should go get ready for work.
36:54Wait, wait, wait.
36:55I'm sure that the boss doesn't understand.
36:56Wait...
36:57No!
36:58No!
37:00No, okay.
37:01Wait.
37:02Wait.
37:03Wait.
37:04Wait.
37:05Wait.
37:06I'm sure that the boss doesn't understand.
37:07Wait.
37:08No!
37:09No!
37:10No!
37:11No.
37:12Okay.
37:13Wait.
37:14Hold on.
37:15What?
37:18We can't do this.
37:20Arya, we already have.
37:23I don't date my client.
37:27My bosses.
37:28Well, I don't sleep with my assistants, but here we are.
37:33Look, truthfully, I haven't felt this way, like, maybe ever.
37:46Tell me I'm not the only one.
37:52You're not.
37:53Yeah.
37:58So, what, are you gonna fire me now?
38:01What?
38:02No.
38:03The best assistant I ever had.
38:05I don't know what I'd do without you.
38:08But, maybe, we can have it both ways.
38:13You know?
38:14Professional in the office.
38:16Unprofessional out.
38:19Please.
38:21I really don't want to lose you.
38:26What do you say?
38:27What do you say?
38:35Okay.
38:36Hm.
38:37All right.
38:54I have your money.
38:55Just tell me where to send it.
38:57Arya, I'm so sorry, but...
39:00While you were taking your sweet-ass time, I found a better deal.
39:05A better deal?
39:07What the fuck? You told me I had 24 hours.
39:10Oh.
39:11You'll see soon enough.
39:12Amazing.
39:13Jack.
39:14All right.
39:16Apparently, the Philharmonic wants to thank me for my donations at a private event tonight.
39:28Well, private plus the press.
39:31You know.
39:33Come on, it'll be fun.
39:35Plus, I can't go anywhere without my assistant, can I?
39:37Uh...
39:40Jack, I...
39:41Start at eight.
39:43Where's that little gold dress?
39:48I can't remember.
39:49The biggest...
39:58You just never do what you're told, do you?
40:02I love the red, though.
40:07Hey.
40:09Why are you so nervous?
40:14Jet, I...
40:16I need to tell you something.
40:18Ooh.
40:19What could that be?
40:21Lena?
40:22What are you doing here?
40:23You didn't think that I'd miss your big night, did you?
40:26Get me a Chardonnay.
40:28Will you?
40:29Okay.
40:31Chardonnay?
40:33Oh, um, Gray and I have a little surprise planned for you tonight.
40:45Ladies and gentlemen, a brief moment, please.
40:48This evening, as well as this plaque, are just a couple tokens of gratitude for one of our most generous donors.
41:00Jet Abrams.
41:04But, of course, no CEO would be anywhere without their loyal assistant.
41:09A round of applause from Ms. Aria Riley, if you will.
41:15Then again, Aria's not just an assistant.
41:19Great.
41:22And her name's not just Aria Riley.
41:24Please don't do this.
41:25Aria, what's going on?
41:26She's also Aria Riley Pearson, the CEO of Dyad.
41:36Well, looks like they're talking that through now.
41:40You've been lying to me this entire time?
41:43Jen.
41:45I was doing this for you, okay?
41:46If you'd just let me explain.
41:49I just wanted to find you the perfect assistant.
41:51Okay, that's it.
41:52I thought if I went undercover, that I could get you exactly what you need, and then...
41:56And then you were gonna leave me?
41:57I trusted you, Aria.
42:02No.
42:04Oh, I never wanted to hurt you.
42:06Ugh, she's lying.
42:11Ever since I found out who you really are, I've been asking around.
42:15See, I have friends at GQ too.
42:18And a little birdie told me that you pitched an article boasting you could find an assistant for...
42:24What did she call him?
42:25What did you call him?
42:26What was it?
42:28Oh, I remember.
42:29The biggest asshole in America.
42:35She was never here for you.
42:37She was here for herself.
42:40For her company.
42:42It was all...
42:44Just a little PR stunt.
42:53Jet, please.
42:54Don't.
42:56You're fired.
42:57You're fired.
42:59You're fired.
43:01You're fired.
43:03Okay.
43:04Okay.
43:05Okay.
43:06Okay.
43:07So, in light of recent events, Jett Abrams reached out to the magazine to share his side of the story.
43:33Dyad regularly engages in corporate espionage, and their best practices are lies and deception, and their CEO and founder, Aria Pearson, is a major liability.
43:47Would you care to respond before we go to print?
43:52I, uh... I...
43:57She has no comment. Thank you, Helen, but that's all the time Ms. Pearson has today.
44:02No. Wait.
44:05Aria, public allegations of fraud are for lawyers to handle, not you. You could hurt the company if...
44:13Yes.
44:17I lied to Mr. Abrams.
44:22Stepping in was not about going beyond for the client.
44:28It was about promoting Dyad.
44:31It was selfish and wrong.
44:37Any relationship, professional or personal, is based off honesty and trust.
44:47And I betrayed Jett.
44:49Uh...
44:50Mr. Abrams.
44:56I take full responsibility for my actions.
45:05Can I quote you on that?
45:06Sabotage Jett? What the fuck is your problem?
45:25I take you to talk to Helen?
45:26Look, I know you're upset with me, but to slander my name in the press...
45:27I'm just being honest, unlike you.
45:28Is it even real?
45:29Was fucking me just part of the plan?
45:30God, what the fuck is wrong with you?
45:31I did what I thought I had to do, okay?
45:32Yeah, you had to lie to me, you had to manipulate me.
45:33You cheated to get ahead and you know it.
45:34Seriously?
45:35You inherited your company from your dad, who inherited it from his dad.
45:36You have no fucking idea what it's like to build something from scratch.
45:37To put your whole soul into something.
45:49Die dƻd is everything to me.
45:50I got everything to me.
45:52You've been doing that fucking business.
45:53Let's see you.
45:55Let me tell you how.
45:56What the fuck?
45:58I'm just being honest, unlike you.
46:00Is it even real?
46:01Was fucking me just part of the plan?
46:02God!
46:03What the fuck is wrong with you?
46:04I did what I thought I had to do, okay?
46:05was everything to me.
46:10Look, I know you're upset with me for lying,
46:13but you have no fucking right to destroy everything I worked so hard for.
46:18You know what?
46:22Lena was right.
46:24We're from completely different worlds.
46:28This never would have worked.
46:35Arya, Dyad doesn't need you to step down as CEO.
46:43That's just giving up.
46:45I'm not giving up.
46:48I'm letting go.
46:51Dyad needs a new face to get over this controversy.
46:57I still believe in everything we did.
46:59I just don't know if I believe in myself anymore.
47:07I'm sure it'll be in good hands with whoever the board chooses.
47:10I'm sure it'll be in good hands with whoever the board chooses.
47:29So then the more I thought about it, the more I realized
47:37we actually do need a New York office.
47:39I'm thinking Soho, maybe Hudson Yards, anything but Midtown.
47:46Ew.
47:50Jet?
47:51You need to move on.
47:54Forget her.
47:55After what you said to GQ, that bitch is finished.
47:58Do not.
47:58Call her that.
48:03I just...
48:05I keep thinking about the last things that she said to me.
48:10She said...
48:11I've never built anything from scratch.
48:16She's right.
48:19Okay, but does that justify her lying to you?
48:22For weeks?
48:25When you are as privileged as we are,
48:28you cannot let your guard down.
48:31You have to stick with the people you know.
48:33And I know you.
48:41And you know me.
48:48You're right.
48:51I do.
48:51I know you lied to me.
48:56I know you betrayed me.
48:58And I know that when you found out about Aria,
49:01you teamed up with her ex to humiliate her instead of coming to be...
49:04I didn't.
49:04I was trying to protect you.
49:08Because I love you, Jet.
49:10You don't love me.
49:14And I don't love you.
49:18I don't think I ever did.
49:21Ever since being with Aria.
49:22I don't know what.
49:25Waste to make me feel.
49:32You need to leave.
49:39Are you kidding me?
49:42You're going to choose her.
49:44Over me.
49:45Go, Lina.
49:49I don't understand why you couldn't bring these documents to my apartment.
50:17Because there are no documents.
50:23I lied.
50:25I needed to get you back in the office.
50:29We've had calls all morning from firms wanting to make capital investments.
50:34Up to nine figures.
50:36What?
50:38How?
50:39Jet recanted his statement.
50:42And sang your praises.
50:43He said that Dyad had an unimpeachable business model
50:46and is the best investment of the year.
50:49He said his judgment was clouded because of his...
50:53feelings for you.
50:57Oh.
50:59And you had to tell me this at the office.
51:02Why?
51:04He's here.
51:06Waiting for you.
51:07Oh, sorry.
51:25I just...
51:27wanted to know what it felt like to be the most sought after CDO in the city.
51:46So?
51:48I need an assistant.
51:54All right.
51:54Yeah, I...
51:55I...
51:55Me first.
51:58Okay.
52:01I thought about what you said.
52:03And...
52:04I should not have lied.
52:06And...
52:07For everything that I lied about,
52:10I was always honest about us.
52:12I mean, I had...
52:14I had...
52:15I have...
52:20very real feelings.
52:25I never thought anything could be more important to me than work.
52:30And then I met you.
52:31And I know...
52:34what you did with GQ.
52:36And...
52:37if you were just trying to...
52:39undo the damage.
52:40I get it.
52:42But...
52:43I was hoping that...
52:45maybe...
52:46All right.
52:48Why do you think I'm here?
52:52Everything I said was true.
52:54And I was such...
52:55an idiot.
52:56And I'm sorry that I got so angry with it.
52:58No, I'm sorry.
52:59But I shouldn't have lied.
53:03I just...
53:04The thought of losing you...
53:08I got...
53:10I got scared.
53:15I'm not going anywhere.
53:19I'm not even not.
53:21I trust you.
53:29You're in the office.
53:38So unprofessional.
53:41Good thing we don't work together anymore.
53:43You fired me.
53:44Remember?
53:49You're such a control freak.
53:52Guess that makes us the perfect match.
53:53Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
