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.
00:03:10Adam, is he as you thought?
00:03:13Mom!
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.
00:03:40And you should join us well, Mabel.
00:03:42A toast.
00:04:01To the union.
00:04:06Mabel, can you pull me some wine?
00:04:08Mabel's a guest.
00:04:10Of course.
00:04:11Is she there?
00:04:13Soon to be Mrs. Whiteford.
00:04:16Dad, I'm still your daughter.
00:04:18We are so excited to welcome you into our family.
00:04:21This is the first joyful dinner we've had since Fiona.
00:04:32With Jonathan and Julie together.
00:04:36It almost feels like Fiona is with us here again.
00:04:43Mom.
00:04:45Oh, we are so looking forward to this marriage.
00:04:48Yeah.
00:04:51I'm full.
00:04:53Please enjoy.
00:04:54Okay.
00:04:54You're okay?
00:05:11Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:05:15I thought you were someone else.
00:05:16Who are you looking for?
00:05:19Jonathan Whiteford.
00:05:21The owner of the mansion.
00:05:23You must be his girlfriend.
00:05:25No, just his assistant.
00:05:27I 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.
00:05:35Jonathan 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.
00:05:42Yes, he prefers to live alone.
00:05:44Is that so?
00:05:45Oh, 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.
00:06:11Well, it's a kind offer, but I'm not interested in dating anyone.
00:06:15Right 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.
00:06:27I 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.
00:07:02Morning.
00:07:21The files are ready for you to sign.
00:07:25Are 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.
00:07:43I set up calendar alerts.
00:07:47You're wearing a new perfume today.
00:08:03If I would.
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.
00:08:29Before we start, you should know that I am a messy eater.
00:08:34And I hate cats.
00:08:35I'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?
00:08:50My mom died, and my father is a gambler.
00:08:53You'd inherit his debts at the altar.
00:08:54Delightful 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?
00:09:06What?
00:09:07You see, I enjoy being tied up, so rather intrigued.
00:09:13Weirdo.
00:09:14Says Miss Monster Day.
00:09:16You'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.
00:09:58I have to go.
00:10:00Weirdo.
00:10:06I'm here for my father, Mr. Morris.
00:10:08What happened?
00:10:09He's stable now.
00:10:11The character's got rough with him.
00:10:12Broke 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.
00:10:37Later.
00:10:38For now.
00:10:38Let's get something to eat.
00:10:39Okay.
00:10:42You grew up in the White Free 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.
00:11:03You were serious about your father's death, 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 death.
00:11:21You are not the terrible person you made yourself out to be.
00:11:23You've known me for one day.
00:11:26Hold your conclusion, Sherlock.
00:11:29Well, this is Lul.
00:11:34Um, goodnight, nerd.
00:11:36Goodnight, monster date.
00:11:37Good night.
00:11:37It's late.
00:11:49How you been?
00:11:55Were you out with them 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 that 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.
00:12:37Morning.
00:12:51Coffee or tea?
00:13:03Coffee.
00:13:04Coffee.
00:13:05Coffee.
00:13:06Coffee.
00:13:06Coffee.
00:13:06Coffee.
00:13:06Coffee.
00:13:06Coffee.
00:13:06Coffee.
00:13:06Coffee.
00:13:06Coffee.
00:13:07Coffee.
00:13:07Coffee.
00:13:08Coffee.
00:13:09Coffee.
00:13:10You never make me breakfast.
00:13:12Last night must have been record-breaking.
00:13:16I'm breaking up with you.
00:13:24What do you mean?
00:13:29Well, more of an ending than a breakup, really.
00:13:32We need to stop.
00:13:33Whatever this is.
00:13:34What about last night?
00:13:38Consider it a breakup gift.
00:13:39Breakup?
00:13:40We are going to be together.
00:13:41Exactly.
00:13:45It shouldn't be too hard to move on.
00:14:00Happy 7th Anniversary!
00:14:02Anniversary?
00:14:06I mean, 7 years of Webber.
00:14:08Sounds nice, doesn't it?
00:14:09Wow, it really has been that long.
00:14:12I have to cut the cake, Mabel.
00:14:13What 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!
00:14:39Are we doing this?
00:14:40Do your jobs!
00:14:41...
00:14:41.
00:14:42Let's do it!
00:14:46Hahaha!
00:14:46Do your jobs!
00:14:57Christ!
00:14:58Let's go.
00:15:28Happy Anniversary, Mabel.
00:15:48So I'm well-wasted.
00:15:56Hello, 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 date.
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 you put 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?
00:16:34Or 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.
00:16:44Hey, 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 as 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.
00:17:19Yes, 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?
00:17:35That'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.
00:17:44So 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.
00:18:01Miss Whiteford.
00:18:18Um, Jonathan's left for the interview.
00:18:20I'm here to see you.
00:18:21How was everything with Ryan?
00:18:25It 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.
00:18:41And you will be banned from the industry.
00:18:45I've ended things with Jonathan.
00:18:47Then marry Ryan to prove it.
00:18:50I'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?
00:19:25Marry Ryan, it's my last warning.
00:19:50Did I miss some heat?
00:19:54Hi.
00:19:54No, 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.
00:20:02Shit, 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...
00:20:12Clear 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?
00:20:30Hello?
00:20:30Where are you?
00:20:32Our service is...
00:20:33Oh, 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.
00:21:04We're completely offline.
00:21:14Come on, Mabel.
00:21:15You know you're the best.
00:21:16I won't.
00:21:20Try Fiona.
00:21:22F-I-O-N-A.
00:21:26Fiona.
00:21:27Give it a shot.
00:21:28Remember that awkward dinner at the Whitefroats?
00:21:41It says, Fiona, you are nothing to tell him.
00:21:45At most, a shadow of his past pain.
00:21:50A reminder of a heartbreak.
00:21:51Hello, Jonathan.
00:22:03Good to see you.
00:22:05How may I help you?
00:22:08Did 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.
00:22:21Uh, next, Mabel Morris?
00:22:50Hello.
00:22:50Hello.
00:22:51You know, coding demands intense focus and absolute silence.
00:23:02That's why having a capable assistant to help with other things like interviews is crucial.
00:23:09Um, I'm Mabel Morris, Mr. Whiteford.
00:23:23Here's my resume.
00:23:27Mabel.
00:23:28Nice to meet you.
00:23:29When can you start?
00:23:45Tomorrow.
00:23:47No, actually, today.
00:23:49Welcome to Whiteford Tech.
00:23:50Mabel.
00:23:52Mabel.
00:23:52Mabel.
00:23:52Mabel.
00:23:53Mabel.
00:23:54Mabel.
00:23:54Mabel.
00:23:56Mabel.
00:24:04Mabel.
00:24:04Are you all right?
00:24:07I know.
00:24:08Shocking, isn't it?
00:24:09You know, when they mentioned you years ago, I was concerned.
00:24:14I thought you had actually fallen for someone.
00:24:17But then I saw you, and I knew there was nothing to worry about.
00:24:21To Jonathan, you're just a reminder of my sister.
00:24:25He 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.
00:25:01You see, you're just a joke.
00:25:26Hey, Mabel.
00:25:30What's wrong?
00:25:31There 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're asking.
00:25:48What is it?
00:25:51What?
00:25:52The code, Jonathan, what is it?
00:25:53That's none of your business.
00:25:54Come on.
00:25:59Uh, tell me about this attack.
00:26:06So, 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.
00:26:16Why 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?
00:26:31Luckily, Julie was there.
00:26:34So, you've seen it.
00:26:40Fiona?
00:26:40Fiona?
00:26:45Yeah.
00:26:50Fiona?
00:26:54Yeah.
00:26:54I know you have a lot of questions.
00:27:00Actually, I found a lot of answers today.
00:27:03I thought I was lucky to have that job, to work at the company, to be by your side, to
00:27:19enter a relationship with you or whatever that was.
00:27:23But, it turns out, I was just a replacement.
00:27:30A replacement for some sick, twisted obsession that you can't get over.
00:27:35I'm shadowing for a dead girlfriend.
00:27:39All those years.
00:27:42When you've been, you're fucking a ghost.
00:27:46Enough!
00:27:48Don't speak.
00:27:50Don't use that.
00:27:51Dead.
00:27:52Ghosts.
00:27:54That's the reality of it, Jonathan.
00:27:56She is both.
00:28:04I'm Mabel Lawrence.
00:28:07I'm not...
00:28:08I'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.
00:28:34I've submitted my resignation.
00:28:39Thank you for the opportunity.
00:28:42Years ago, I learned a lot.

00:30:16fiona was sweet but too naive for our world her innocence was a liability i tried separating
00:30:28jonathan and fiona for years but jonathan was so invested even ignoring this family to pursue his
00:30:35little tech project all encouraged by fiona luckily his project succeeded but not without him taking
00:30:43down his father's legacy first we could have been so much more influential so powerful
00:30:49but just when i thought all was lost fiona was out of the picture

00:47:17mabel it's okay to be upset with jonathan no 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 we should look into that

00:49:08see your thoughts
00:49:08it's good surely as a leader in this industry you have more to offer than good i don't think it's my
00:49:19place to say more if we always play it safe we'll never achieve perfection
00:49:23you've grown a lot mabel and it's a strong product but not yet a market leader
00:49:34but there's potential your money needs more clarity it's affecting your overall product
00:49:40you need to improve the interactive system it's far too rapidly and the interface needs to be more
00:49:46user friendly you know this but overall truly truly well done proud of you professional boundaries
00:50:00sorry i sometimes get carried away with uh talented teens
00:50:08well then let's curl some numbers shall we we look now five-year-wise
00:50:16hey great job on today's pitch it was a team effort you still have some work to do though
00:50:26looking forward to launching it but then if it's non-stop we're gonna get some rest
00:50:33well you still had time to find the handsome lawyer wait you knew about it ryan you are the only guy who
00:50:42hasn't made a pass on me i had my suspicions i thought barbara set us up for that reason but
00:50:48she's clueless but still hoping for a wedding
00:50:53um i'll see you tomorrow absolutely and hey if you knew anything especially about jonathan just ask
00:50:59but it's all behind me don't worry
00:51:13i don't know if you know what i'm talking about mr whiteford
00:51:25just a coincidence miss morris see um i live here too yeah right
00:51:35hey

00:53:18You seemed really occupied yesterday.
00:53:20Could you yell with a quiet ride?
00:53:24You know, I have a tip for your product, if you're interested.
00:53:32Okay, fine. What is it?
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.
00:53:43We wanted simplicity, but maybe too much so.
00:53:47It's a good approach, but...
00:53:49You need to experiment, but...
00:53:51You've all of a sudden a rule breaker, man.
00:54:01Mr. Wester?
00:54:02Mr. Wester?
00:54:03Will you come home?
00:54:04Your mother's mother...
00:54:13Her condition worsened.
00:54:19We thought it would be best if you were here.
00:54:25Is there anything that could be done for her?
00:54:27We've done everything.
00:54:31Her vitals are going quickly. I'm so sorry.
00:54:34I'm going to get some medicine.
00:54:36Ready?
00:54:42Mom. Hey.
